OAK BLUFFS, Mass. (AP) Health officials in this Martha's Vineyard town have reversed a year-old smoking ban in an effort to get smokers off of street corners and sidewalks and back into bars.

The Board of Health voted 2-1 last week to repeal the town's ban on smoking in bars, a little more than a year after the same board imposed the measure.

''The (cigarette) butts are a major problem, and so is the language you hear. They've taken the bar atmosphere and put it in the street,'' said Health Board chairman Joe Alosso, who voted to eliminate the ban.
