worrisome new noise=wheel bearings?

[abatzis2 at hotmail.com (Michael Abatzis)]

driving home today from the bustling metropolis of houma, la, and started 
having a disconcerting screech from the left front wheel. sounded like metal 
on metal, and was only present when the wheel was turned to the left at all. 
straight ahead or right didn't hear anything, but as soon as you touched it 
left, there it was.  i haven't taken a close look at it yet, but i'm 
guessing that it's the wheel bearing. any other thoughts? is there a way to 
test it? is there a tech page for this, and is it possible to change without 
a press? tia,
