Vets discuss issues with congressmen By Mindy Kearns Special to OVP OHIO VALLEY — More than 100 veterans converged Monday morning for a town hall meeting in Mason, W.Va., to hear congressional updates from both West Virginia and Ohio congressmen. U.S. Congressman Evan Jenkins, representing the 3rd Congressional District in West Virginia, which includes Mason County, and Congressman Bill Johnson, representing the 6th Congressional District in Ohio, which includes Meigs and Gallia counties, spoke to the veterans at the StewartJohnson V.F.W.

Congressman Jenkins told those attending about the funds being placed into rural health care. He spoke on funding veterans court and the ever-growing veterans homeless population, saying it is time for the government to “step up to the plate.” Jenkins said the Veterans Administration medical system is designed to be the best, and vowed to help hold it to that standard. Congressman Johnson said there are “real pockets of excellence within the V.A.” Stating the Veterans Administration is the largest agency in the federal government, employing 350,000 people, Johnson said a drastic overhaul is needed to bring it into a model of excellence. “We’re making progress, but we’re not there yet,” the Ohio congressman said. “We are continuing to work on the problems.” Nimmo told those attending that 30,000 veterans are served at his medical center in See VETS | 3 �LOCAL 2 Tuesday, August 23, 2016 Daily Sentinel OBITUARIES ANTHONY PAUL HARBRECHT POINT PLEASANT — Anthony Paul Harbrecht, 90, of Point Pleasant, passed away Monday, Aug. 22, 2016, at Holzer Medical Center, in Gallipolis, Ohio.

With my ﬂoppy orange pants, head wrapped with a paisley handkerchief, I was off to an adventure. I was 7 years old. I remember the feeling of freedom as I trotted down the sidewalk with nothing more than a bag of air at the end of the stick slung over my shoulder and a bit of hope to soon have a mouthful of chocolate. I’m still addicted to the high that both freedom and sugar give me. Over the years, I’ve embraced my hobo self. I keep my bags packed, Michele ready for impromptu trips, but now Z. Marcum I scold myself when I dive face-ﬁrst Contributing into the cupcakes at the dessert bar. Columnist My vagabond nature keeps me moving, but it also keeps me grounded — centered and whole. I feel complete without a detailed map or course of action. I feel more alive, like the auto pilot in me will keep life interesting. Hobos traditionally travel on foot, but I’m a hobo at heart and enjoy wandering via all modern modes of transportation. Oh, the bliss of roaming high or low, of soaring high above the ocean or buzzing by cornﬁelds on the highway to nowhere. The most interesting destinations have been the ones that I let my gut navigate. Like the time I hopped off the trolley in New Orleans on a whim and arrived at author Ann Rice’s house just as another tourist did. The conversation ended with the gentleman asking me to submit an article about my personal energy healing experience to a national journal. Even something simple can be satisfying — something like traipsing into a restaurant I don’t frequent, only to be offered fried feta cheese for free, the same dish that, at an event just the night before, I’d neglected to try because the line was long. Using my hunches to explore each day’s opportunities is invigorating, indeed, and I know without my free-spiritedness, I’d feel like I was running through quicksand. But sometimes I seek an adventure just to avoid a chore or escape a situation. So I speed onto an activity, thinking I can outrun the dragon that’s demanding to be dealt with … and thus my glorious hobo has a shadow side. It whisks me here and there, hiding me from reality when I let him. The movement stretches my mind like a massage soothes the muscles, but traversing the countryside — or the world — in order to avoid the dragon on my doorstep only ensures I remain in his snare, and I know I’m a fool to think otherwise. When I refuse to acknowledge him, he camps out on my lawn and pops open a cold one. He’s got nowhere else to go. He’s my dragon, after all. He’s my fear, my insecurity, my excuse to daydream and prance off toward the sunset. If I weren’t so hooked on meandering around, I’d plop into the seat next to him. Oh, heck, maybe I’ll do just that — have a conversation with the dragon in my front yard. Maybe I’ll offer him a piece of candy and ask him to ﬂy me into his lair. I am already packed.

For three years, Leigh Whitaker’s family back in Cincinnati knew no more than the initial telegram they received — “The Secretary of the Army expresses his deep regret that PFC Charles L. Whitaker has been missing in action since July 12, 1950.” What a joy it was for me — a teenager listening to my bedside radio late at night — to hear a ﬁnal list of released POW’s being read, one of the last names being “Charles Leigh Whitaker, Cincinnati, Ohio.” I jumped out of bed and woke everyone up — “Leigh’s coming home.” Leigh married a high school classmate, their two children being the 1963 National Poster Children for Muscular Dystrophy. I have the photo of Leigh and his beautiful family at the White House with President John F. Kennedy to promote that year’s fundraising Telethon. These are the stories of just two of the men and women who have sacriﬁced time, effort, and often their lives to defend — and deﬁne — this great nation. The next time you take an evening stroll around the block, or hike a hill, trek a woodsy path, think of John and Leigh and their fellow soldiers on marches ﬁlled with hardship, danger and death. They marched so that we might walk. James F. Burns, a native of Ohio, is a retired professor at the University of Florida. TODAY IN HISTORY... Today is Tuesday, Aug. 23, the 236th day of 2016.

(AP) — Kevin Harvick believes Bristol Motor Speedway is on to something. Now, he wants similar tracks to follow that lead. Bristol ofﬁcials used a tacky resin to “polish” the track and improve grip on the bottom lane so racers would have a two-groove layout and be able to pass down low. Harvick used the lower groove several times to stick and move past drivers on the way to winning the raindelayed, water-logged Sprint Cup race Sunday night.

The race was delayed Saturday night due to severe weather. taking the low side of the high-banked, concrete track because cars were threeor-four tenths of a second slower. “Tonight, you could hold your ground, you could get past lapped cars,” he said. “It gave everybody an option to do something different and, as a driver, that’s what you want.” Harvick pointed out a couple of other similar circuits in need of Bristol’s grippy approach. “Martinsville needs to call Bristol and say, ‘What do we need to do to make a second lane come in?’ because they did a great job here,” he said. “I think that would be the ﬁrst place I would attack and do something different.” Drivers and fans had complained that Bristol had become a top-heavy, onegroove race track where passes were far less frequent than in the bump-and-run days of Darrell Waltrip, Rusty Wallace and the late Intimidator, Dale Earnhardt. Harvick gushed how Bristol’s gamble could become a blueprint to improve the ontrack product.

The RedStorm posted a straight sets rout of Florida Memorial University (25-18, 25-13, 25-17) before suffering a three-set loss at the hands of Warner (Fla.) University (25-13, 26-24, 25-12) in day one of the STU Classic hosted by St. Thomas University at the Fernandez Family Center. Rio Grande controlled the play at the net in the opener against Florida Memorial, as the Lions ﬁnished with a -.062 hitting percentage after tallying 27 attack errors and 21 kills. FMU also hurt its own cause by committing 12 service errors. The RedStorm hit at a .232 clip for the match, but reeled off 13 kills against just three errors on 21 attacks in the second stanza for a .476 attack percentage. After winning the ﬁrst two sets with relative ease, Rio bolted to a 15-5 advantage in the ﬁnal set before FMU went on an 11-2 run to pull within 17-16. Following a RedStorm timeout, Rio scored eight of the ﬁnal nine points to nail down the straight sets win. Senior Autumn Snider (Marion, OH) and sophomore Aleah Pelphrey (Piketon, OH) ﬁnished with nine and eight kills, respectively, in the winning effort, while senior Kayla Briley (Marion, OH) had 15 assists, senior Chandler Brown (Stockdale, OH) ﬁnished with 13 digs and freshman Rachel Gilkey (Nelsonville, OH) recorded four blocks. Jessica Medina had seven kills to pace the Lions, while Angelique Lopez had a team-high nine assists and ﬁve digs. In the ﬁnal match of the day, the RedStorm managed just two more kills (18) than it had attack errors (16) and ﬁnished with an .024 attack percentage – a ﬁgure which included three kills and nine errors in 29 attacks (-.172 attack pct.) in the ﬁnal set.

US romps to men’s basketball gold RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The trip wasn’t always easy, though they arrived at their expected destination. The players on the U.S. Olympic men’s basketball team never doubted they would be standing on the gold-medal platform, even after some close calls in Rio and criticisms they lacked the usual big names and bigger wins. “I know there was kind of a lot of buzz around us not playing well a couple of games, two, three games in the early round,” Carmelo Anthony said, “but the way that we locked in and the way that we focused in to be able to have this gold medal around our necks was special.” Saving their best for last in a tournament that had been tough, the Americans convincingly won their third straight gold medal, beating Serbia 96-66 on Sunday. “We came here and despite what people are saying about this group, being less talented and not blowing teams out, we did a good job of bottling all that up and unleashed it on Serbia,” forward Paul George said. Kevin Durant scored 30 points in the ﬁnal game with the national team for Mike Krzyzewski, who took the Americans back to the top and leaves with them there after becoming the ﬁrst coach to win three Olympic gold medals. “To go home as gold medalists and leave Coach K off with another gold was one of our main goals as well,” Durant said. Anthony also picked up his third gold to go with a bronze, becoming the most decorated male in Olympic basketball history. The U.S. beat Serbia by just 94-91 in pool play, holding on when Bogdan Bogdanovic missed a 3-pointer at the buzzer. This rematch looked nothing like that meeting, but it did resemble the ﬁnal of the 2014 Basketball World Cup, which the Americans won 129-92. “To come out there and play as well as we did against a team that had stepped up their play as well, it showed that we came together at the right time,” Durant said. Anthony checked back into the rout in the ﬁnal minutes so he could grab a seventh rebound, passing David Robinson for U.S. record with the 125th in his Olympic career. He had already become the leading scorer earlier in the tournament, capping an Olympic career that began with disappointment as a member of the U.S. team that ﬁnished third in 2004. The Americans haven’t lost since, winning 25 straight in the Olympics. A few of the victories were more difﬁcult than usual in this tournament, where half the Americans’ eight games were decided by 10 points or fewer. Krzyzewski said it didn’t matter how the Americans won, that there would be no questions as long as they did. And there was no doubt they would Sunday once Durant heated up. He had also scored 30 in the 2012 gold-medal game, after he poured in a U.S.-record 38 in one game en route to the MVP of the 2010 world basketball championship. He is already the Americans’ No. 2 career scorer in the Olympics in just two appearances. When the ﬁnal horn sounded, the U.S. players shared long hugs with each other and then Krzyzewski. It was a tough ending after an impressive run for Serbia in its ﬁrst Olympics as an independent nation. The heart of an international power in the former Yugoslavia, the Serbs hadn’t qualiﬁed for the Olympics since gaining their independence in 2006. They dropped three games in the group stage but had the look of a team that could challenge the Americans after nearly knocking them off earlier in the tournament and overwhelming Australia in the semiﬁnals. They were down just 16-15 before Durant made a 3-pointer for the ﬁnal points of the ﬁrst quarter, and before they knew it he had turned the game into a blowout. “They are superstars. If you let them play like they want, they will kill you,” guard Stefan Markovic said. “Each of their 12 guys can do that.” A challenging year for the Americans started long before they boarded the cruise ship they stayed on while in Rio. For the ﬁrst time since 2004, many top American players opted to skip the Olympics, forcing them to bring some here who wouldn’t have been considered otherwise. The 10 Olympic newcomers seemed to be jelling slowly and the U.S. had a pair of three-point victories and came in winning by just 21.4 points per game, more than 10 per game fewer than four years ago and about half the 43.8 the Dream Team won by in 1992. “This team kept getting better and even those three games in pool play, we had not played that type of game against that type of level of opponent,” Krzyzewski said. “We said it was a learning experience and our guys did learn and we put it to good practice.” Krzyzewski, an assistant on the Dream Team, has long insisted that international basketball has gotten too strong for anyone to win that easily again. Yet on Sunday, the Americans did. �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Tuesday, August 23, 2016 7 Blue Devils finish 5th at Duke Ridgley meet By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com The fourth card belonged to Josh Davis with a 94. Ahead of the Blue Devils — which were the highest of the four Ohio competing teams — Spring Valley was the runner-up with a 244, followed closely by Parkersburg with a 246 and Huntington St. Joseph with a 249. Huntington High had a 263 to place sixth, followed right behind by Wayne at 266 and CabellMidland “B” at 268. Huntington St. Joseph “B” was ninth at 271, as Cabell-Midland “C” was next at 277.

That’s because the Gallia Academy High School golf team took part in the Duke Ridgley Tournament on Friday, and ﬁnished ﬁfth out of the 13 teams at Guyan Golf and Country Club in Huntington. The Blue Devils ﬁred a team total of 256, as all 13 teams ﬁelded four players apiece— with the top three scores counting towards the team total. Cabell-Midland actually sported three teams, with its “A” club coasting to the team championship with a 220. The Scarlet Knights are also the defending West Virginia Class AAA state champions.

How is it possible to make monthly credit card payments and never get anywhere? This problem is caused by high interest rates that eats up most of your payments. Even though you make your minimum payment, you don’t make much headway eliminating the debt. Luckily, there’s a way to find debt relief without incurring more debts. Using certified credit counseling like Consolidated Credit, you can get professional advice to identify the right solution for your needs. A certified credit counselor can review your options to see which solution is best for you. You can qualify for lower interest rates or even eliminate them, while consolidating your credit card debt into one easy payment to get you out of debt faster. Every financial institution differs, but most people see a reduction of total payments by up to 30-50% as they pay off debt faster. Freedom from debt can become a reality!

Danny Carroll gave Rio a lead just over 18 minutes into the match and the RedStorm limited host St. Xavier University to just three total shots in an eventual 2-0 triumph over the Cougars at Deaton Field. Carroll, a junior from Liverpool, England, pushed a shot from 15 yards out past SXU goal keeper Frank Valle and into the lower right corner of the net with 26:29 remaining in the opening stanza to give the topranked RedStorm all of the offense it would need. Senior Heitor de Melo (Sao Paulo, Brazil) set the ﬁnal score by scoring on a free kick from 20 yards out with 12:07 left to play. Meanwhile, Rio Grande allowed its host just three shots in the contest – all in the ﬁrst half. Sophomore goal keeper Ben Martinez (Montpellier, France) recorded a save in the Cougars’ only shot on frame. Valle recorded six saves in the loss for St. Xavier, which was outshot by the RedStorm, 17-3. Rio Grande lost the services of junior forward Joao Paulo Antonio (Sao Paulo, Brazil) after he was issued a yellow card caution and subsequent red card ejection with just over 23 minutes left in the match. Antonio will be sidelined for the ﬁnal part of the RedStorm’s season-opening road swing to the Windy City – a meeting with Cardinal Stritch (Wis.) on Sunday afternoon at Toyota Park. Kickoff is set for 2 p.m. EDT. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande. Harvick From Page 6 wrecked and Keselowski ran out of gas — all after 295 of 300 scheduled laps. “I think Friday night was probably one of the beset Xﬁnity races I’ve ever sat and watched,” Harvick said with a grin. “Just really happy to see Bristol back where it is this weekend.” Bowlsby asked in the email that Khator provide a “very brief communication indicating your interest in being considered.” Bowlby writes that it is not necessary to send supporting information or materials and to send the letter to his attention care of Kansas City, Missouri, based attorney Kevin Sweeney of Polsinelli. Reflections and pride in final Rio party RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Shaking to samba and expressing a sense of longing with uniquely Brazilian words, Olympians and fans said goodbye to the Rio Games with one last big bash that was both revelatory and a sigh of relief. The closing ceremony Sunday celebrated the 16-day spectacle that was the Rio Games, which combined numerous highlights with ugly and even bizarre episodes that sometimes overshadowed competition. Cariocas — as Rio’s residents are known — weren’t swayed by the issues that led up to these Olympics, and braved rain and strong winds on the ﬁnal night to cap their moment in the worldwide spotlight. While South America’s ﬁrst Olympics are over, safely and with a grandiose ﬁnale, many problems remain. Still, Brazil showed Sun- Other things we’ve learned from the weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway: BAD LUCK BUSCH: Kyle Busch was in position to win both the Sprint Cup and Xﬁnity Jae C. Hong | AP Athletes from the Netherlands parade during the closing ceremony for the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Sunday. day it still deﬁnitely knows how to party. “These were marvelous Olympic Games in the ‘marvelous city,’” said International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach, playing off the “cidade maravilhosa” nickname of Brazil’s postcard city of inviting coastlines, year-round sun and lush tropical vegetation. While the stadium erupted in applause at that declaration, a few minutes later there were boos of sadness when Bach announced: “I declare the Games of the XXXI Olympiad closed.” races, yet left the track wrecked both times. On Friday night, he tangled with rival Brad Keselowski and wound up in the wall with ﬁve laps to go. On Sunday, Busch led a race-high 256 laps, yet got hit by Justin Allgaier after a spin. Busch threw his helmet and called both Allgaier and his spotter the “biggest moron(s) out there.” GOOD LUCK BUESCHER: Rookie Chris Buescher, the surprise winner at Pocono earlier this month, moved into 30th in points which would qualify him for NASCAR’s Chase. Buescher left here 13 points ahead of David Ragan. Buescher has three races left before the 16-man playoffs begin. GORDON’S FINISH: Jeff Gordon wound up 11th, his best showing in the four races he’s run in the No. 88 car replacing injured Dale Earnhardt Jr. Gordon won’t drive in Michigan because of a prior commitment. Earnhardt is scheduled for tests and Hendrick Motorsports will update his status early next week. WHERE’S JGR?: The Joe Gibbs Racing quartet looked like it would sweep the top spots after it ﬁnished 1-2-3-5 in qualifying Friday night. It didn’t ﬁnish that way Sunday. Denny Hamlin led the way in third while pole-sitter Carl Edwards was sixth. Both Matt Kenseth and Kyle Busch were caught up in accidents that ended their chances earlier than expected. IT’S FOOTBALL TIME: Bristol now goes gridiron. Crews almost immediately started the expected 19-day process to convert the iconic NASCAR track into a frenzied football ﬁeld in time for No. 9 Tennessee to face Virginia Tech. The inﬁeld will become the playing surface in a construction project that involves more than 10,000 tons of stones for the base. The Vols and Hokies play Sept. 10 and then Western Carolina and East Tennessee play a week later. Volleyball hit .290 for the match, including a sizzling .593 in set one (17 kills, 1 error, 27 attacks). Snider had six kills and three blocks to lead Rio in a losing cause, while Briley had eight assists and Brown ﬁnished with 13 digs and a pair of service aces. Adrienne Czaplewski and Angie Pagan-Perez ﬁnished with 13 and 12 kills, respectively, for Warner, while Raygen Lee and Jenna Swaffer added 21 and 13 assists, respectively, in the winning effort. Thalia Mendez led the Royals with 20 digs. Rio Grande will ﬁnish out its run in the two-day event on Saturday by facing host St. Thomas at 10 a.m. and squaring off with Doane (Neb.) at 4 p.m. From Page 6 The Royals, who were among the schools receiving votes in the NAIA preseason Top 25, ® Valley Lumber & Supply Co. 555 Park Street, Middleport, OH 45760 (740) 992-6611 Toll Free 800-733-3334 Fax (740) 992-2709 Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande.
