• The Comeback of Jimmy Bivins: In the 1940's and 50's, Cleveland's Jimmy Bivins was considered one of the best fighters of his time.

• Elder Abuse: As the senior population continues to grow, so do incidents of physical and mental abuse on the elderly. The number of investigated cases has increased 10 percent over the last 10 years...meaning that one out of every eight senior citizens is being abused. As INFOHIO's/ 90.3's Yolanda Perdomo reports, that number may be just the tip of the iceberg, because many older adults refuse to make their voices heard. (Aired January 25, 2000)
