The tobacco auction had a familiar ring in 1998, but the year was anything but ordinary for the state's tobacco industry.
That leads off our list of the year's top ten stories.
As southside farmers worried...

Union workers demonstrated.
The state joined the 200- billion dollar tobacco settlement. The price of cigarettes soared. And tobacco growers and workers ended the year with more questions than answers.
The practices of local police were also in the headlines. In two seperate incidents, officers sparked local controversy with their use of pepper spray.
In the first, 34- year -old Derek Poindexter died in the custody of police.
[SOT CARRIE DULIN/POINDEXTER'S MOTHER 98-63 01:44:44]

[RUNS= 08]
[OUT Q=it will be done.]


The officer said he thought Poindexter was hiding crack cocaine in his mouth, and sprayed the suspect to keep him from swallowing the drug.
The medical examiner said cocaine poisoning was the cause of death and the officers were cleared.
In the second incident no one died, but Roanoke County Police officer Russell Metcalf lost his job after he used pepper spray on 77-year- old Goldie Akers.
Akers was parked in the wrong direction checking her mail, and refused to leave her car.
[SOT ELMER HODGE 98-70 1:12:51]

Still, it wasn't all bad news in 1998.
Nicole Johnson claimed the crown of Miss Virginia in June, then traded up in Atlantic City. She became the first Miss Virginia since Kylene Barker Brandon to win the Miss America Pageant. Miss Virginia runner-up Nita Booth succeeded Johnson and became the first African American to wear the state crown.
The controversial plan to build a Home Depot near Cave Spring Corners also made our list.
Despite the promise of more jobs and tax revenue, opponents organized and challenged the supervisors' vote to rezone the property.
[SOT FUZZY MINNIX 98-49]
[IN Q=If this is good land use]

((FUZZY MINNIX/CAVE SPRING SUPERVISOR: IF THIS IS GOOD LAND USE, THEN I'M THE KING OF ENGLAND, BUT I CAN COUNT TO THREE.))
[RUNS= 05]
[OUT Q=but I can count to three.]


The citizens group filed suit. Home Depot eventually abandoned its plans.
A top story from '97 made the list again in '98. Jim Gilmore's pledge to eliminate the car tax propelled him to the governor's office, and it dominated the General Assembly debate.
[SOT CRANWELL 97-97]
[IN Q=This car tax]

((DEL. DICK CRANWELL/D- VINTON: THIS CAR TAX IS THE BIGGEST FOOL COCKAMAMIE SCHEME THAT HAS EVER BEEN HANDED OUT TO THE PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA.))

But a compromise that included money for school construction prevailed during a special session. The first car tax refunds were in the mail by June.

[OUT Q=mocks the American people.]


As the House Judiciary Committee considered articles of impeachment, Congressmen Bob Goodlatte and Rick Boucher were at the center of the debate.
[SOT BOUCHER 98-71 ]
[IN Q=Should members consider]

((REP. RICK BOUCHER/D- 9TH DISTRICT: SHOULD MEMBERS CONSIDER THE DIVISENESS AND THE POLARIZATION THAT WILL OCCUR PENDING A SENATE TRIAL AND DURING THE TRIAL IN THE SENATE? SHOULD THEY CONSIDER THAT FOR MONTHS THE CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENT WILL BE DIVERTED FROM THE REAL BUSINESS OF THIS NATION.))
[RUNS= 13]
[OUT Q=business of the nation.]


Later, when the full house voted, 5th District Democrat Virgil Goode joined Republicans and voted for impeachment.


In March, a collision between two freight trains in Lynchburg sent box cars flying and residents fleeing.
That's the next stop on our list of the year's top stories.
A rail car carrying acetone burned for several hours, forcing evacuations.
The investigation blamed human error. Norfolk Southern paid the city more than 600- thousand dollars.
High profile court cases also made news in '98. Especially, for the two men accused of burning and beheading G. P. Johnson in the summer of 1997.
A surprise plea agreement in May sent Louis Ceparano to prison for life.
Emmett Cressell Jr. got the same sentence when a jury convicted him of first degree murder in late November.
[SOT PAT JOHNSON 98-75 1:02:06]

((PAT JOHNSON: THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE A TRUE SENSE OF HUMANITY. AND CRESSELL AND CEPERANO WERE LACKING IN HUMANITY.))
[RUNS= 07]
[OUT Q=lacking in humanity.]


Number two on our list is the Roanoke rooming house fire that killed six people in May.
Investigators believe the fire was set in retaliation for a fatal shooting hours before... Murder suspect Willie Caldwell was acquitted of the shooting. But another man, Michael Jerrod Clements now faces charges of murder and arson stemming from the fire.
Finally, The top of story of the year began with a rain slick interstate and the accident on July fourth that killed seven people.
[SOT 98-32 1:57:18]

((PEGGY GROW/FAMILY FRIEND: WE CAN'T FEEL WHAT THEY'RE FEELING, BUT WE CAN JUST HOPE IT NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN.))

It became a major national story when it was discovered the child of accident victims Kevin Chittum and Whitney Rogers was one of two babies switched at birth at the U-V-A Medical Center.
An investigation found no evidence of intentional wrongdoing, but 1999 will likely bring a lawsuit against the hospital.
