A North Carolina-based company with 18 stores in Virginia is closing doors in several locations. Oakwood Homes is filing for bankruptcy protection tomorrow.
In addition, 17-HUNDRED jobs will be cut... That's about a fifth of the company's workforce. The manufactured home-maker and retailer has lost money for many years and has been hurt by a surge in home repossession. Most of the plants and stores affected are in Tennessee and Texas. Oakwood will now have about 120 retail outlets - down from about 400 several years ago.
Oakwood's CEO says he hopes the company will emerge from Chapter 11 protection within six months.

"The 12:45 is a SOLD OUT."

(NARR)
This weekend, the box office is perhaps the only place in Harry Potter's world where magic ISN'T so mysterious.

(NAT/SOT CLIP)

(NARR:)
Although "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" took in close to $30 million dollars it's opening day -- it didn't surprise a soul.
It's just the kind of magic EXPECTED of the young wizard these days.

NAT/SOT TOYS/GAMES

(NARR:)
The Potter name has become Platinum -- a franchise worth at least a billion dollars.
Potter's creator -- saw it coming years ago.
1999
(SOT/J.K. ROWLING, HARRY POTTER AUTHOR)
"Could we put Harry Potter on a margarine tub? No! Can we use Harry Potter to advertise a certain car that will not be named? No!"

(NARR:)
Why 'no?' Because Harry Potter she felt, should live in her books alone.

NAT/SOT MOVIE

(NARR:)
But she may have underestimated Potter's power as a character -- because even though he's NOW as much of a movie star as he is a literary giant -- he's managed to live in both worlds the way few characters have.

(SOT/BARBARA MARCUS, SCHOLASTIC PUBLISHING)
"What we are seeing even now is that people who go to see the movie, or buy a toy, quite often come back and read the books."

(NARR:)
Even Rowling came around to the idea.

(SOT/J.K. ROWLING, HARRY POTTER AUTHOR)
"A really good case in point would be Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I just don't think that film matched the book, I still love the book, I don't think of Gene Wilder every time I read the book. I see my Willy Wonca still in my head."

(NARR:)
Her young fans agree.

(SOT/MOS)
"It's a different feel, cause you use your imagination when you're reading the books, then the movie can be completely different, but you still like the movie."

(NARR:)
The worry?

(SOT/MOS)
"I like the movies better."

(NARR:)
That the younger generation will see only the movies.

(SOT/PAMELA GREENE, LIBRARIAN)
"As soon as you pick up a book that's been made into a movie, they will say, I've already seen the movie, I've already had that experience, I don't need to read it.

(NARR:)
Perhaps -- but if Potter's magic has made readers out of millions -- who's to say he'll suddenly lose his touch now? Lee Cowan, CBS News, New York.))
