When Rector took over the business from his father and uncle in 1953, he had four competitors within a block radius. When he retired and sold Goolrick's this fall, it was the only drugstore in the business district in this city between Washington and Richmond. A group composed mostly of elderly city natives gathers weekday mornings, each with an unofficial spot at the counter or at one of a half-dozen tables. "It's not just a drugstore, it's a way of life," Rector said.

New owner Stephen May has pledged not to make any major changes, although he does plan to add a few tourist trinkets to the inventory. "People like it just the way it is I guess if you came in here as a child with your mother and now you've got kids of your own you want them to see it like you did," said waitress Viola Newton. FREDERICKSBURG, Va. (AP) There's nothing fancy and not much modern at Goolrick's Modern Pharmacy, where the soda fountain waitresses call everyone "baby." "They got real wild in 1950 and changed the outside some. Why change something if it works?" asks former owner and druggist Charlie Rector.

"It's just an indescribable feeling of gratitude," Irwin said. "I feel like I did the best I could at the time, and hopefully the Lord feels the same way." Irwin, who set from the southern end of the trail at Springer Mountain, Ga.r arrived Wednesday morning on a snow-covered trail at the remote Katahdin Stream campground. In all, he spent eight months on the trail. After sleet and snow at the start of this week, the sun shined brightly and temperatures were in the high 30s for his arrival. Dozens of friends, reporters and other hikers joined Irwin for the final 2.4-mile leg Wednesday, but let him walk the last tenth of a mile alone.

He was accompanied only by his guide dog, Orient, who was with him every step of his journey. Irwin, a 50-year-old recovering alcoholic who lost his sight to an eye disease when he was 28, decided to attempt the feat as an affirmation of his faith in God. Sponsors helped pay his expenses. Along the way, Irwind suffered a broken rib when he slipped on a stone.
