Thank you Cliff!!!
I am still learning the new scanner, as I have mentioned earlier.
I now find that if I select 'gray scale" instead of B&W photo even if it is a great photo, it comes out a lot clearer.
I am also playing around with Photoshop 5 to see if I can do an even better job.
But, as long as you and some others are more clever than I am you can always copy my posted photos and fix them.
