For Becky Robbins that amounted to $6,269, which the radio station rounded off to $10,000. "I didn't really think, I Just grabbed," said Becky.

"It was kind of hard to see the bigger bills. I only saw one $100 that I grabbed at the last second." i BECKY, 22, didn't actually win the contest. Her husband John did. But the rules said that if the winner suffered from some physical infirmity that would hinder him, he could name a designated runner. John, 27, recently underwent back surgery that makes bending and lifting difficult, so Becky ran for him.

DISPLAY PAWS- SCRATCHED FANS SETJIQftSTRATQS: BY JIM ROHRER Batavia Bureau Chief Just did it. We Jumped in with both feet." Laura Roades had a difficult time explaining exactly why she and husband, Lee, took a flyer when they purchased an old restaurant near this Highland County community. The most distinguishing feature of the Highland South Restaurant Is that a big part of It Is an old DC-8. Known as the Restaurant in earlier days, before a fun-loving entrepreneur named Coburn Davidson decided to spice up the place by merging a DC-8 fuselage with a conventional building, the Highland South Is definitely a curiosity.

"I GUESS it was about eight or nine years back when Coburn bought the airplane as salvage at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and shipped It down here In three pieces," Laura said. Davidson moved on to more conventional pursuits about three years ago when Lee and Laura bought the Highland South because they were ending a lease on a restaurant they had on USWnear HUlsboro. Folks still remember the place as the Restaurant, airplane or not, because it sits at the Intersection of US 62 and Ohio 321, about 12 miles south of Hillsboro. And the specialty of the house ts still the Y- Ftsh sandwich, an Icelandic cod sandwich "which sells by the ton," according to Laura. "I have no Idea what possessed us," Laura said.

"All summer long, people would stop and take pictures of the place. It was Just one of those thlngs-our lease was up, we wanted to move, and this place was for sale." SO NOW they have a dining room that can seat more than 100 and Is perfect for parties. Customers can even get a "wing seat," if they want. "Actually," Laura admitted, "the plane Is hard to heat in the winter. We ran a buffet in it for a while, but what we use it for now ts mainly parties and special requests.

If people want it, then we use it. Last Christmas, we had 108 people seated In the plane for a party." Davidson was obliged by local officials to build an exit Just behind the cockpit, which tends to detract from the realism, and the plane's nose Is cut short, but the original owner did preserve the cockpit "We weren't wary of buying It," Laura said. "We had been in It before. We Just did it. I don't know why we did it." Laura admits the location "Is out In the middle of nowhere" (the mailing address Is Winchester, an Adams County community located several miles south).
