N NATIONAL NEWS BRIEFS Woman’s admission on talk Flood waters ravage Somalia show leads to jail term

GENEVA, New York A woman's tale on “The Jerry Springer Show” about a relationship with a 16-year- old boy has landed her in ja il, charged with rape. Dawn Marie Eaves, 24, admitted on the show last month having “a relationship” with the Geneva boy, who is the younger brother of a man who fathered one of Eaves' three children. She appeared on the show with the teen-ager and Michael Griffith, who was living with Eaves at the time. On the show, Griffith confronted Eaves about her relationship with the 16-year-old. The pair had an argument, which led to a fistfight between Griffith and various guests. The show drew the attention of police, who charged Eaves after they said she and the boy admitted having sex early last Thursday at her home and acknowledged sleeping with each other since July.

8:04 p.m. We enter Nick’s Patio and are greeted by whom we presume is jolly of Nick himself. He seats us at a four-top in the corner. We remove our trench coats and shades and try to appear inconspicuous. We casually look around and see nothing out of the ordinary until WHOA!, what is that? A 7-foot Marilyn Manson type ducks to avoid a concus­ sion from the exit sign. His skin, as white as South Bend precipitation, looks even paler when compared to his butt- length black hair. We think we can guess his favorite color. His skin-tight jeans, Ozzy Ozborne T, and White Zombie cap are all black. The w alkie-talkie he’s clinging to is also black. Oh, charming! So are his fingernails.

There ain’t nothing like the gas tank on a ‘57 Chevy.” His friend is just as adamant. “You’re freakin’ nuts! You know as well as I do, any Ford Thunderbird beats them all! Hands down!” Nick seats them next to us, seeing as they have asked for “a heavy smoking area.” m In 9:13 p.m. Marilyn Manson is finishing up his chicken dinner. (Unlike his hero Ozzy, he prefers his chicken cooked.) Surprisingly, his eating is very methodical. He incessantly licks his lips before and after every bite.
