• Although Major League Baseball has had some sort of post-season championship series since about 1884, the World Series as we know it began in 1903 when the Pittsburgh Pirates competed against the Boston Americans.

Boston took the Series in what was then a nine-game series, five games to three.

• Every now and then, all the World Series games were played in one city, for example, the 1906 Series which was played by the Chicago Cubs and the Chicago White Sox. But it’s pretty rare for all the games to be played in the same ballpark. In 1921 and 1922, both New York teams, the Yankees and the Giants used the Polo Grounds as their park, where all the games were played. In 1944, the St. Louis Cardinals and the St. Louis Browns battled it out in one stadium, Sportsman’s Park.

• The World Series ring is a familiar award given to players

night games in 1935, the World Series was a daytime event for decades. In 1949, one of the Series games had to be finished under lights for the first time, but the first actual scheduled night game was in 1971 in Pittsburgh’s Three Rivers Stadium. From that point on, games were frequently scheduled at night, in order to capitalize on larger television audiences. There hasn’t been a daytime World Series game since 1987, when Game Six was played indoors at Minneapolis’ Metrodome.

• In the 1960 World Series, the Pittsburgh Pirates were pitted against the New York Yankees. The Yankees scored 55 runs to the Pirates’ 27, yet the Pirates won the Series.

The Yankees were victors in three games 16-3, 10-0, and 12-0. The Pirates won four games 6-4, 3-2, 5-2, and 10-9.

Game Four was won on a 9th-inning homer.

• Even though Major League Baseball started holding

• Some teams have never won the World Series – the San Diego Padres, Tampa Bay Rays, Houston Astros, Milwaukee Brewers, Colorado Rockies, and Texas Rangers (although the Rangers did compete in both 2010 and 2011).

There are two teams who haven’t yet managed to make it to the Series, the Washington Nationals (formerly the Montreal Expos) and the Seattle Mariners.

• The only non-American team to take the Series has been Canada’s Toronto Blue Jays, who defeated the Atlanta Braves in 1992 and the Philadelphia Phillies in 1993.

The Jays are also the only Canadian team to host a World Series game.

• Game 3 of the 1989 Series was scheduled to start at 5:35 on October 17. The two Bay Area teams, the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland A’s were warming up when a 7.1 magnitude earthquake shook the area. Due to the many cameras lined up for the game, the Loma Prieta earthquake became the first major U.S. earthquake ever to be broadcast by live television.

• The winning pitchers in all four games of the 1934 series were brothers. Dizzy Dean and Paul Dean of the St. Louis Cardinals each won two games in the classic against the Detroit Tigers.

• In 1996, the Atlanta Braves’ Andruw Jones became the youngest player ever to hit a home run in the World Series.

The 19-year-old was also only the second player ever to hit two home runs in his first two at-bats in a World Series. Unfortunately, the Braves still lost that Series to the Yankees.

• Several teams have experienced a long old dry spell without a World Series win. The Boston Red Sox were winners in 1918 over the Chicago Cubs, but waited 86 years for their next title in 2004 over the St. Louis Cardinals. The 1917 Chicago White Sox triumphed over the New York Giants, but couldn’t do it again for another 88 years, when they were the 2005 champions. The Chicago Cubs are still waiting! They were the 1907 and 1908 champs, but haven’t managed to collect a World Series title since. (The Cubs did make it to the Series in 1945, but were defeated.) They had their early wins in Weeghman Park before moving into Wrigley Field in 1914. Fans are optimistic that the upcoming $500 million upgrade to Wrigley will produce the elusive title.

• The Yankees have played in more Series than any other team, 40 appearances with 27 wins. Their first win was in 1923, the year that the original Yankee Stadium opened. In second place, the St. Louis Cardinals are way behind with just 10 titles. The player with the most World Series titles is Yankees catcher Yogi Berra, who played from the late 1940s until the early 1960s. Yogi has also played the most Series games, a record 75.

• The World Series has been played every year since 1903, with two exceptions. In 1904, John T. Brush, president of the National League’s New York Giants, refused to allow his team to play against the Boston Americans because he considered the American League team too inferior. World War I, World War II, the 1918-1919 influenza pandemic, and the Great Depression couldn’t keep the Series down.

But the baseball strike of 1994 could. The 232-day strike from August, 1994 until April, 1995, led to the cancellation of nearly 950 games, including the entire 1994 post-season and World Series. Unfortunately for the Montreal Expos, it had been the best season of their history, and in fact, the best record in baseball, 74-40. They were never to get close to the Series again.

• Scandal struck the World Series in 1919 when eight members of the Chicago White Sox were banned from professional baseball for conspiring to fix the series and profit from it by intentionally allowing the opposing team, the Cincinnati Reds, to win. In what became known as the Black Sox incident, the first baseman, who had longstanding ties to underworld kingpins, agreed to accept $100,000 to throw the Series, and set about convincing seven of his team members, including “Shoeless” Joe Jackson. Speculation was that players were unhappy with the stinginess of team owner Charles Comiskey who had supposedly treated the members unfairly and grossly underpaid them.

stepfather was a ditchdigger and part-time chauffeur, while her mother worked at a laundromat. As a child, Ella worked as a runner for local gamblers, picking up bets and distributing winnings.

• When Ella was 15, her mother died from injuries received in a car accident, and Ella went to live with her aunt.

Shortly afterward, her stepfather died from a heart attack, and Frances joined Ella and their aunt.

• Life was not happy for Ella, and her schoolwork suffered significantly. She was frequently truant, and before long was in trouble with the law and was sent to reform school, where she was beaten by the personnel there. Ella managed to escape, but was without money and alone in the midst of the Great Depression.

• Each week, Harlem’s Apollo Theater hosted an amateur talent night, and in 1934, when Ella was 17, her name was selected in the drawing to compete. She was planning a dance number, but when the preceding act featured some rather exceptional dancers, Ella made a last-minute decision to sing, one that would change her life. She crooned one of her mother’s favorites, and at the end, the audience demanded an encore.

FAMOUS WOMEN OF THE WORLD:

ELLA FITZGERALD

It didn’t look like Ella Jane Fitzgerald’s life was going to amount to much, but a lucky break led to her career as “The First Lady of Song.” Follow along this popular jazz singer’s journey to fame.

• Ella’s parents separated shortly after her birth, and she and her mother moved to Yonkers, New York. When Ella was six, she was joined by a new sister, Frances. Her

• Several more talent show wins followed, and early in 1935, the prize was a week-long gig at the Harlem Opera House. A popular bandleader, Chick Webb, heard Ella and invited her to travel with the band for $12.50 a week.

• Ella recorded her first song at 19, and had a number one song and million-copy seller at 21. Her version of the nursery rhyme, “A Tisket, A-Tasket” in a swing/bebop style stayed on the charts for 17 weeks.

• When Ella was 22, her mentor Chick Webb passed away, and the band was renamed “Ella Fitzgerald and Her Famous Band,” as she took on the bandleader duties for the next three years. She then began touring and recording with other big bands, including those of Dizzy Gillespie and Louis Armstrong. She married the bass player of Gillespie’s group, Ray Brown, and the couple adopted a son.

• Ella mastered the technique of “scat” singing, that vocal improvisation of nonsense syllables that mimics another instrument in the band. In other words, her voice performed the equivalent of an instrumental solo, with scales, arpeggios, and riffs.

• During the 1950s and 1960s, Ella was a regular on television variety shows, “The Bing Crosby Show,” “The Dinah Shore Show,” “The Andy Williams Show,” and “The Ed Sullivan Show,” among several others.

• Over the course of her career, Ella Fitzgerald recorded over 200 albums, which produced sales of 40 million albums, won 13 Grammy Awards, and performed at Carnegie Hall 26 times. Circulation problems related to diabetes resulted in Ella having both of her legs amputated below the knees when she was 76. Never fully recovering, she passed away at age 79 in 1996.

HALLOWEEN

The word “Halloween” is a contraction of “All Hallows’ Eve.” Early Christian holy days included All Saints Day, also known as All Hallows or Hallowmas, celebrated on November 1.

• Americans spend over $5 billion every year celebrating Halloween, while Canadians drop about $1.5 billion. It’s the second highest grossing commercial holiday, after Christmas. In the U.S. about 600 million lbs. of candy (272 million kg) will be purchased nearly $2 billion worth, about $45 per household.

• Halloween’s origins are Celtic during pre-Christian times.

An ancient harvest festival known as Samhain marked the end of summer. The Celts believed that the spirits of the dead returned to visit the land of the living to damage crops and play tricks on the living on October 31, the first night of Samhain. The Celts wore animal skins at their bonfire festivities, and often sacrificed crops or animals to the spirits. Some donned ghost costumes, hoping to confuse the spirits or avoid being recognized by evil ones. On All Saints’ Day, early Christians dressed as saints or angels.

The holy days blended together to give us our tradition of dressing up. When a large number of Irish immigrated to North America in the late 1800s, they brought their Celtic rituals with them.

• America’s early celebrations were more of an autumn harvest festival with corn-popping parties, taffy pulls, and hayrides. The custom of trick-or-treating evolved from Medieval England, when poor people would beg for sweet breads in exchange for praying for families’ souls, a practice called “souling.” In North America, this became trick-or-treating, although this custom didn’t become popular until the 1930s.

• Jack-o-lanterns were an Irish tradition, and were originally made from hollowed-out turnips. Their practice was to carve faces of the dead onto the vegetable and place a lighted candle inside to make it glow.

• The first record of carving pumpkins is from 1837. The word “pumpkin” has its origins in the Greek language,

pepon, which translated “large melon.” The French modified this to pompon, and the British changed it to pumpion. American colonists adjusted it to “pumpkin.”

One of America’s oldest known crops, the pumpkin originated in Mexico. It’s one of the most popular crops in the U.S., with annual production of about 1.5 billion lbs.

(680 million kg). Illinois grows about 95% of the nation’s crop. Antarctica is the only continent that does not grow them.

• Small varieties of pumpkins weighing 2 to 5 lbs. (.9 to 2.3 kg) include the Sugar, Winter Luxury, and Spooktacular.

Intermediate types will weigh 8 to 15 lbs. (3.6 to 6.8 kg) with names such as Autumn Gold, Harvest Moon, and Funny Face. Weighing 15 to 40 lbs. (6.8 to 18.1 kg) are the Ghost Rider, Hercules, Jumpin’ Jack, and Big Tom. All are ready for harvest in about 110 days. The record for the world’s largest pumpkin belongs to a Rhode Island man named Ron Wallace, who hauled his massive 2,009lb. (911 kg) pumpkin to the Topsfield, Massachusetts fair in September of 2012.

• Halloween isn’t a fun time for everyone. Some folks suffer from Samhanophobia, an intense fear of Halloween, which can create severe panic attacks. Other phobias include the fear of witches (wiccaphobia), the fear of ghosts (phasmophobia), and the fear of cemeteries (coimetrophobia).

Low-Saturated-Fat Diet Improves Insulin Function

Plant-Based Diet Can Reduce Breast Cancer Risk A plant-based diet can reduce the risk of breast cancer, according to a new study published online in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Researchers followed 91,779 current and retired California teachers for 14 years. Those who had a predominantly plant-based diet had a 15 percent reduced risk of breast cancer compared with those who did not include abundant fruits and vegetables in their diets. The data showed a 34 percent decrease in the risk for a particular type of breast cancer, called estrogen and progesterone receptor negative, for those following a predominantly plant-based diet. In addition, researchers found that a diet including abundant fish and wine increased

Eating a low-saturated-fat, high-fiber diet helps with insulin sensitivity, according to a study published in the latest edition of Diabetes Care. The study examined data from 518 healthy individuals between the ages of 15 and 20 enrolled in the Special Turku Coronary Risk Factor Intervention Project (STRIP) study. Participants were enrolled in the STRIP study during infancy and continually educated about dietary changes for heart health.

Researchers encouraged a shift away from saturated fats and toward more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, while assessing insulin resistance and monitoring overall health.

Those who had higher fiber and lower saturated fat intakes showed better insulin sensitivity. This study illustrates that healthful eating practices introduced early in life have lasting effects and may prevent chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease.Link LB, Canchola AJ, Bernstein L, et al. Dietary patterns and breast cancer risk in the California Teachers Study cohort. Am J Clin Nutr. hair follicles that are more sensitive to male hormones than they should be. In either case, hirsuitism is the result.

It might be the only sign of male hormone production, or there may be other signs of hormone excess.

For many, this is nothing more than a family trait. For others, it can be a sign of trouble in the adrenal gland, the thyroid gland, the pituitary gland or the ovaries. One somewhat-common condition that produces such an imbalance is polycystic ovary syndrome.

Why Some Women Have Mustaches DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I watch a lot of TV news.

Without naming names, there are two very attractive women reporters, dark-haired, who have prominent mustaches. I find this distracting.

Is unwanted hair removal so very painful or costly that they would not have it done? We have a niece with the same problem, but I would never mention it to her. What’s going on? -- D.B. ANSWER: Many women have hair growing in places usually reserved only for men -- the mustache area, the chin, the chest, the upper back and the arms. It’s called hirsuitism (HER-sue-tizm), and it’s not uncommon. About 5 percent of women in the childbearing years have it, and more women develop it after menopause.

It has to do with the balance between male and female hormones. Women make male hormones. Some make slightly more than normal, and other women might have

Not every woman with mustache growth needs an exhaustive investigation, but women should mention it to their doctor to see if the doctor thinks further pursuit is in order.

A number of options are open to women who want the hair removed. Shaving and bleaching the hair are two cheap ones. Vaniqa cream -- relatively new -- can be effective.

Electrolysis and laser treatments destroy the hair follicles.

Electrolysis is somewhat painful, but not so greatly painful that it’s unbearable. Women reporters can afford either procedure. Male hormone excess can be treated with a number of medicines, and that can rid women of unwanted hair.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My next-door neighbor turned yellow ... bright yellow. I had never seen that before. Her husband says she has jaundice. What exactly is that? How is it treated? -- C.M. ANSWER: Jaundice indicates that the skin and the whites of the eyes have turned yellow. It’s not an illness. It comes

Exercise as Effective as Drugs in Disease Treatment Exercise may be as effective as medications in certain types of disease management, according to a new review published this week in theBritish Medical Journal. The review, which analyzed more than 305 trials with 339,274 participants, compared drug and exercise interventions and found that exercise proved similar to medications for heart disease prevention, heart failure treatment, and diabetes prevention. For those who had suffered a stroke, exercise was more effective than drug treatment. In addition, physical activity often provided patients with fewer side effects and injuries. The authors stress that these data provide health care professionals with a safe and effective alternative for their patients.

from the French word for yellow.

Jaundice indicates liver trouble. When the liver is functioning normally, it clears the blood of bilirubin, a byproduct of worn-out red blood cells. If the liver’s not up to par, bilirubin levels in the blood rise, and that turns the skin and whites of the eyes yellow.

Your neighbor’s doctor has the task of finding the cause of jaundice. Only if the cause is identified can the liver be properly treated.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Isn’t liver cirrhosis the final cause of death in alcoholics? My dad was an alcoholic, but he didn’t die of cirrhosis. Why? -- L.C. ANSWER: Not every alcoholic develops cirrhosis, which is scarring of the liver. Your dad might have had a genetic endowment that protected his liver.

Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475.

HOLLYWOOD -- The media is at it again! Newscasters, talk and magazine shows recently reported that Mia Farrow revealed to Vanity Fair magazine that her 25-year-old son, Ronan, might actually be the son of crooner Frank Sinatra.

Let’s look at the facts: Frank and Mia were married from

A spokesman for Allen said, “The article is so fictionalized and extravagantly absurd that he is not going to make a comment.” Barbara Sinatra offered, “I can hardly believe that. It’s just a bunch of junk. There’s always junk written, lies that aren’t true. It’s a phony deal!” When Sinatra died in 1998, at 82, there was no mention of Ronan in his will.

That’s not to take anything away from Ronan, who’s a human-rights activist, freelance journalist, Rhodes Scholar, lawyer and government official. In 2008, he was awarded Refugees International’s McCall-Pierpaoli Humanitarian Award for “Extraordinary service to refugees and displaced people.” In 2010, Harper’s Bazaar named him “up-and-coming politician” of the year, and Forbes Magazine named him as one of “30 Under 30” Most Influential People in 2012 and 2013.

his name to Ronan O’Sullivan Farrow. The news, magazine and talk shows proved their case by showing Ronan with Sinatra on one side and Woody Allen on the other. Given this example, he certainly looks more like Ol’ Blue Eyes than Woody. But if you put him next to Mia ... he looks just like her!

1966 Ôtil 1968 (when she made “Rosemary’s Baby”).

After they split, Sinatra played the field until 1976, when he married Barbara Marx (former wife of Zeppo Marx, the fourth Marx Brother).

In 1980, Mia hooked up with Woody Allen as his “partner” until 1992. During that time, Mia had a son they named Satchel Allen, on Dec. 19, 1987, (at which time Sinatra was 73). When Mia and Woody “un-partnered, they had a custody fight over Satchel, which Mia won and changed

Nancy Sinatra, Jr., Frank’s daughter, was quoted as saying, “He is a big part of us, and we are blessed to have him in our lives.” No DNA test has ever been done and, not one reporter or talk-show person has told the whole story!

Mark Burnett, creator of “Survivor,” “The Voice” and “Shark Tank,” among other reality shows, and the miniseries “The Bible,” is joining forces with Virgin megamogul Sir Richard Branson to create “Space Race,” an out-of-this-world reality show for NBC in which everyday people will compete for a trip into outer space on Virgin’s SpaceShipTwo. Just in time, Sony Television will produce “Milky Way Mission,” which will send celebrities into space. Only way to explain this is to say ... FAR OUT!

AKC, USDA at Odds Over Breeder Rules DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Is it true that the U.S. Department of Agriculture is banning professional dog breeding? -Concerned Owner in Iowa DEAR CONCERNED: Nope, it’s not true. However, the USDA has implemented some new rules that will bring Internet-based pet breeders and sellers under the regulation of the Animal Welfare Act. The rules narrow the definition of a retail pet store and expand the agency’s oversight of pet breeders.

On the plus side, the new rules could make it harder for notorious “puppy mills” to exist, because breeders with four or more breeding females, and those who sell puppies “sight • On Oct. 31, 1517, the priest and scholar Martin Luther nails to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, unseen,” now have to be licensed through the USDA.

“The AKC remains extremely concerned that the rule will make it difficult for individuals to self-report, as they would not be able to know -- without an APHIS inspection ... before applying for a license -- whether they would be required to obtain a license.”

And new standards for facilities could make it much harder for hobbyists and small breeders to raise dogs in their homes.

“It is not reasonable to expect small breeders, who keep a handful of dogs and make a choice to raise dogs in their homes, to be able to meet exacting USDA kennel engineering standards that are designed for large commercial wholesale or research kennels,” the AKC said.

With all the new construction around South Florida, the increase in home sales and home values, the increase in cash buyers, low interest rates, and home prices still affordable, it’s leaving many homeowners asking themselves; “Should I stay or should I sell?”

There are various factors to consider when selling your home: Am I selling in order to purchase a larger home while the market remains affordable and interest rates remain low?

Am I selling to downsize?

Am I selling because I am nearing retirement?

Am I selling to relocate to a more affordable area?

Will selling my home afford me to pay cash for another property?

Whatever the reason may be, will this window of opportunity reoccur in the very near future or do I take

Someone Kicked Hole in Bathroom Door Q: My youngest brother stayed at my house for the weekend and at some point, somebody kicked a hole through the bathroom door. All the way through! Is there any way to repair it? -- Stacy in Hampton Beach, N.H. A: On a temporary basis, just for privacy and safety, you can patch the damaged door by attaching a piece of plywood to either side using wood screws. The plywood should overlap the hole by at least an inch on all sides.

However, you’ll need to replace the door completely, once you have the time and the finances. That your brother’s friends managed to knock a hole through it means the door was probably hollow, which is common for interior doors.

It will be less expensive to replace than a solid wood door.

Also on the plus side, you can replace it with the door of your choice.

Another option is to replace the entire frame, allowing you to purchase a prehung door.

Replacing the door properly will take a little bit of skill.

If you’ve done some basic carpentry before (using power tools, etc.) you can handle a door replacement. Otherwise, you may want to hire a contractor to do the entire door replacement. Ask for a written quote before agreeing to any work.

Before heading to the home-improvement store for a replacement, measure the height and width of the door and take those measurements with you. You’ll need the new door plus -- if you want to completely replace the

hardware -- new hinges and a lockset (which includes the doorknob and latch).

You also can use the old hardware to save money.

If you plan to replace the door yourself, plan ahead.

Online videos can give a great visual overview of the task.

HOME TIP: If your door scrapes the floor slightly on opening and closing, place a piece of sandpaper on floor where it rubs and open/close the door across the sandpaper a few times.

Events Across South Florida Planned to Celebrate Food Day, October 24th, 2013 Interactive Healthy Food Demonstration using produce from the community garden and the market by Chef Robyn and FLIPANY staff.

The way we eat and think about food starts in our home, on our farms, in our schools, and in our communities.

FLIPANY, a local non-profit organization whose mission is to empower families through physical activity and nutrition programs while creating policy changes for healthier, more food secure communities, is leading the charge in Florida to give children, parents, college students, and teachers the opportunity to try wholesome foods that taste good.

The challenges include the Healthy Food Scavenger Hunt and Apple Wraps Recipe for children and parents to do together, the “Orange” You Going to Try an Orange challenge to see how many children can peel and eat an orange on October 24th, 2013 and Cooking Matters at the Store Tours: a guided grocery store tour to help families buy healthy, affordable foods.

Screenings of the “A Place at the Table” movie will be shown at local colleges including Florida International University and Broward College. “A Place at the Table” shows the prevalence of food insecurity in America and how the issue can be solved if we all work together. For more information on ways you or your group can get involved in Food Day 2013 in Florida go to http://flipany. org/in-the-news/join-us-on-food-day-october-24-2013 or call 954-636-2388.

The Food Day activities will culminate with a healthy food demonstration and Food Day celebration at the Dania Beach PATCH Community Garden and Farmer’s Market. Special Guest Fox’s Hell’s Kitchen Top Finalist, Chef Robyn Aldomovar, will be at the PATCH market on Saturday, October 26th, 2013 with her food truck, Palate Party, showing how to make affordable delicious meals from the produce in the garden and at the market.

Se Habla Español “Kansas City Lightning: The Rise and Times of Charlie Parker”

by Stanley Crouch (Harper Books, $27.99) Reviewed by Larry Cox

Jazz saxophonist Charlie Parker lived a mere 34 years, but in that short time he helped redefine American popular music.

Parker was born in Kansas City, Kan., in 1920 and began playing the saxophone when he was 11 years old. Parker was a product of Kansas City. As Stanley Crouch explains in his well-crafted new biography of Parker, Kansas City was a kind of experimental laboratory where the collective possibilities of American rhythm was being refined and expanded on a nightly basis.

Musicians learned to navigate a constantly changing complex harmony and propulsive rhythm to absorb and respond to it within seconds. This improvised creation of form and response allowed musicians to create high-quality jazz, an exciting new sound. In fact, during the 1930s, the sounds coming from the jazz clubs of Kansas City made it the third most important spawning ground for jazz after New Orleans and Chicago.

In 1938, Parker joined Jay McShann?s band, and it was with this group that Charlie made his debut recording. Although Parker was talented and one of the most influential musical figures of the 20th century, he was haunted by drug addiction.

He began taking morphine following automobile accident and soon graduated to heroin.

Parker personified the tortured American artist: a revolutionary performer who internalized all of popular music and blew it back through his saxophone in the form of new music known as “bebop.” It was Parker who actually invented the bebop sound, even as he wrestled with the drug addiction that would ultimately take his life.

Crouch has been writing about jazz music and the AfricanAmerican experience for more than four decades, and his crisply written, meticulously researched new book -- the first of two planned volumes -- goes beyond being a mere biography. It is the work of a jazz scholar at the top of his game.

Historical Letters

A: Did you know that Zane Grey’s first name was Pearl?

One of the dealers who is an expert in buying and selling collectible books, including those of Zane Grey AKA Pearl, is Mike Riley, owner of the Book Gallery, 50 W. Main St., Mesa, AZ 85201; and bookgallery@qwestoffice.net.

According to Riley, the value of a book is determined by at least four factors: author, title, edition and condition. Riley adds that the original dust cover can add dramatically to the value of a book.

Q: I have copies of a series of letters written by my fifthgeneration grandfather in Washington County, Ky., to his son in Rushville, Ind. The letters were sent over a period of time from 1851 to 1874 and cover such topics as crop problems and the impact of the Civil War. I am wondering if they have any monetary value or what significance they would be to 19th-century American histories. -- Bob, Rancho Cucamonga, Calif.

Q: I have a six-pack of J.R. Ewing private stock premium beer, which was brewed in San Antonio by the Pearl Brewing Company in 1980. What is the value? -- Mary Lou, Albuquerque, N.M.

A: I spoke to several document dealers, who seem to agree that while your letters sound interesting, they would not be worth a great deal of money. For example, one told me that he had just sold a packet of two dozen letters from a Confederate soldier to his family in Mississippi, covering 1862 through the war’s end. The collection sold for $750, and I suspect your letters might be worth about that amount.

Write to Larry Cox in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475, or send e-mail to questionsforcox@aol.com. Due to the large volume of mail he receives, Mr. Cox is unable to personally answer all reader questions. Do not send any materials requiring return mail.

The significance to the history of Washington County, Ky., however, is another matter. Two sources that might be helpful are the Historical Societies of Kentucky, P.O. Box H, Frankfort, KY 40602; and the Washington County Historical Society, 107 Carolyn Court, Springfield, KY 40069.

Q: I would like information about some Zane Grey books I

A: Not much. Both the J.R. Ewing and the Billy Beer from the Jimmy Carter era sell for less than $20 for an unopened six-pack. Both are curiosities, but not very valuable ones.
