Filled with a sad, sad pain;

And drown in the sea of love

OVP STOCK REPORT

AP Business Writers

Stocks extended their gains in late-afternoon
trading on Wall Street Wednesday as investors
remained optimistic that the U.S. and China will
make more progress in resolving their costly trade
dispute.
Technology companies, industrial stocks and
retailers accounted for much of the market’s broad
gains, a sign that traders expect the economy to
remain healthy.
Key ofﬁcials from the world’s two largest economies will meet Thursday and Friday to try and
stave off an escalation of a trade conﬂict that has
hurt companies and consumers by raising prices
on a number of products. President Donald Trump
has said he might let a March 2 deadline slide if the
U.S. and China get close to a deal.
After March 2, additional tariffs are scheduled
to kick in, making the situation worse. Economists
and analysts are optimistic that both sides will
eventually hammer out an agreement that satisﬁes
U.S. complaints that China steals or pressures U.S.
companies to hand over technology.
The market was gaining momentum in lateafternoon trading after losing some ground earlier
in the day. That stumble came as U.S. Sen. Marco
Rubio announced over Twitter plans to introduce a
bill aimed at deterring companies from buying back
their own stock. The Republican from Florida said
the argument that stock buybacks free up money
for companies to reinvest in growth “isn’t backed
up by the facts.”
Meanwhile, U.S. companies are nearing the end
of a relatively strong earnings season. Hotel operator Hilton gained after reporting proﬁt and revenue
that easily beat analysts’ forecasts. Groupon fell as
lower sales resulted in weak fourth-quarter proﬁt.
KEEPING SCORE: The Dow Jones Industrial
Average rose 146.42 points, or 0.6 percent, to
25,572 as of 3:14 p.m. The S&amp;P 500 index, which
is on a three-day winning streak, gained 0.5 percent. The Nasdaq composite added 0.4 percent.
THE QUOTE: “The president’s seemingly positive tone regarding trade has helped underpin the
market, particularly the industrial names,” said
Quincy Krosby, chief market strategist at Prudential Financial. “That’s a positive catalyst for the
market.”
LEVEL UP: Video game maker Activision Blizzard jumped 8.1 percent as it moved to layoff nearly
800 workers, in part to deal with a steep downturn
in revenue following the best year in its history. The
maker of “Call of Duty” and “Candy Crush,” expects
revenue to decline about 20 percent this year.

THEIR VIEW

Here’s to
you, Mr.
Robinson
One of my childhood heroes, Frank Robinson,
died last week.
Frank’s name might not be all that familiar to
young people today. But to me back
in the early 1960s, Frank Robinson
was the greatest baseball player
in the world. I still think he is the
greatest Cincinnati Red of them all.
He also was the main ﬁgure in one
of the worst trades in baseball history and one of the worst days of my

young life.

kitchen. She looked a little apprehensive when I showed up. As carefully
as she could, she said, “You know, I heard the
Reds traded Frank Robinson.”
I didn’t believe her. No one would ever trade
Frank Robinson! But she assured me that, yes, it
was true. To the Baltimore Orioles.
I was stunned. Even though it was December,
I found my baseball glove and a tennis ball and
went outside. We had a

instant Orioles fan.
It wasn’t until years
later that I understood that people like Frank Robinson had a bigger impact on the world than just
what they did on the baseball ﬁeld. My heroes at
the time were Robby and the Big O, Oscar Robertson, who played for the Cincinnati Royals. Later I
added University of Dayton basketball player Donnie May to my list. A generation before, it would
have been unthinkable for a little white kid from
Troy, Ohio, to have black guys like Robinson and
Robertson as heroes. But it seemed natural to me.
I later found out that the path wasn’t easy for
them. Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in
Major League baseball in 1947 and Earl Lloyd
became the ﬁrst black man to play in the NBA in
1950. So my heroes weren’t the ﬁrst, but they still
had to face a lot of prejudice on their way up. And
they were so good at what they did they made it
clear they not only belonged, but they were the
best.
Frank Robinson went on to become the ﬁrst
African-American major league manager and then
worked for Major League Baseball in various
capacities. He not only was good, he was smart.
Not everyone thought the same about Robby
as I did. He was sometimes criticized during his
playing days for being difﬁcult to get along with
or overly aggressive on the ﬁeld. I wouldn’t have
wanted to be a second baseman trying to turn a
double play when Frank Robinson was running
toward second base.
But for a 9-year-old boy, Robby was The Man.
He and the Big O often were the objects of criticism in Cincinnati, which at the time was not
exactly an example of racial harmony. It’s kind of
amazing that Cincinnati had two of the greatest
players of their respective sports in town at the
same time. I don’t think the city appreciated what
was there until they were traded away.
The Reds traded Robby for Milt Pappas, Jack
Baldschun and Dick Simpson. None of them ever
amounted to much with the Reds, although it is
only fair to say that Pappas did win 16 games for
the Reds in 1967 and later pitched pretty well for
the Cubs.
I guess it says something about how privileged
my childhood was that the Cincinnati Reds trading a baseball player could be such a dark day for
me. Other children might have wondered where
they were going to get their next meal or how
they could avoid getting abandoned or beaten and
I was devastated by a baseball trade. But that’s the
way it was. I can still feel the pain today.
So thanks, Robby, for being a great baseball
player and for teaching me something about life.
I’m going to go ﬁnd my baseball glove and a tennis
ball and go outside and throw the ball up against
the wall in front of the house a few times. Frank
Robinson will be the batter. I can’t throw the ball
as hard as I used to, but it doesn’t matter.
It will still be a home run every time.

South Gallia senior Gavin Bevan comes up with a steal, during the first
half of the Rebels’ 59-35 setback on Tuesday in Mercerville, Ohio.

head coach Kent Wolfe credited
the Wildcats and pointed out the
differences from the ﬁrst meeting
between the teams.
“They jumped out us right
off the bat, they were more
physical than us and they were
relentless on the glass,” Wolfe
said. “The ﬁrst time we played
them, we beat them, but we
got outrebounded signiﬁcantly.
From the very beginning, their
guards took us off the dribble,
that is something they did not
do the ﬁrst time. They took us
off the dribble, got into the lane,

By Alex Hawley
ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com

NELSONVILLE, Ohio — The middle quarters

guests a 39-30 edge at the break.
Meigs sank 11 more ﬁeld goals in the third quarter and outscored Nelsonville-York by a 26-to-13
clip, making the margin 65-43 with eight minutes

points in the fourth quarter, but Meigs scored 18
to seal the 83-68 victory.

Blue Devils burn
South Point
in OT, 56-53
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

SOUTH POINT, Ohio
— An exclamation point
to go with this career
night.
Senior Bailey Walker
poured in a career-high
17 points, including a
game-winning trifecta at
the buzzer that allowed
the Gallia Academy boys
basketball team to claim
a 56-53 overtime victory
over South Point on Tuesday night in an Ohio Valley Conference matchup
in Lawrence County.
The Blue Devils (138, 8-5 OVC) trailed 7-0
midway through the opening frame, but the guests
rallied with a 10-2 surge
the rest of the period to
secure a slim 10-9 edge
through eight minutes of
play.
The Blue and White
kept that momentum
going into the second
quarter as a 9-6 surge
allowed GAHS to increase
its cushion out to 19-15 at
the intermission.
The Blue Devils taked
on the ﬁrst four points
of the third stanza and
secured their largest lead
of the night at 23-15, but
the Pointers (8-13, 5-8)
rallied with a 17-9 charge
that ultimately knotted
things up at 32-all headed
into the ﬁnale.
Blaine Carter poured
in six points for GAHS,
while Chance Gunther
tacked on eight markers for the hosts as both
teams netted 15 points
apiece down the stretch
run — ultimately leaving
the game tied up 47-all at
the end of regulation.
Gallia Academy never
trailed in the extra four
minutes of action, but
found themselves with
possession with less than
10 seconds left in the
midst of a 53-all contest.
In isolation at the top
of the key, Cory Call penetrated into the lane and
kicked a pass out to Walker on the left wing as the
defense collapsed. Walker
released his uncontested
trifecta attempt just
before the horn sounded,
and the ball found nothing
but the bottom of the net.

The victory allowed
GAHS to claim a season
sweep after posting a
54-43 decision in Centenary back on Jan. 8.
The Blue Devils outrebounded the Blue and
Gold by a 22-17 overall
margin, including an 8-5
edge on the offensive
glass. The guests also
committed 15 of the 28
turnovers in the contest.
Gallia Academy netted
21-of-41 shot attempts for
51 percent, including a
5-of-9 effort from behind
the arc for 56 percent.
The Blue and White also
went 9-of-13 at the free
throw line for 69 percent.
Walker and Carter both
paced GAHS with 17
points apiece, followed by
Justin McClelland with
10 points and Cole Davis
with eight markers. Call
completed the winning
tally with four points.
Walker also led the
guests with a teambest six rebounds, with
McClelland and Call
respectively hauling in
ﬁve and four boards.
McClelland and Carter
both dished out four
assists apiece, while Carter also had a team-high
four steals.
The Pointers made
20-of-38 shot attempts for
53 percent, including a
7-of-12 effort from behind
the arc for 58 percent.
The hosts also went 6-of10 at the charity stripe for
60 percent.
Gunther paced SPHS
with a game-high 21
points and also added
team-bests of ﬁve
rebounds and three
assists. Austin Webb
was next with 11 points,
while Nakyan Turner and
Roger Staggs respectively
chipped in seven and ﬁve
markers.
Marcus Malone, Brody
Blackwell and Mason
Kazee completed the
scoring with three points
each.
Gallia Academy — winners of three straight
— completes its regular
season schedule on Friday when it travels to
Chesapeake for an OVC
matchup at 7 p.m.
