Hunting, fishing licenses coming Staff Report Council discusses batting cages By Kayla Hawthorne Special to the Sentinel MIDDLEPORT — The Middleport Village Council discussed new projects and updates Monday evening. In a meeting before the main council meeting, the ﬁnance committee discussed the sewer rate after a council member recommended they reconsider the rate with the water increase. Fiscal Ofﬁcer Sue Baker presented ﬁgures from the past six years to show that she believes the rate needs to stay at 150 percent of the water bill. Baker said it would be ﬁnancially irresponsible to reduce the rate. During the regular meeting, council went into an executive session to discuss legal matters of the Larkin estate with Village Solicitor Rick Hedges. When the meeting resumed, council voted to have Hedges write a contract for the Larkin estate to remove their property (the old batting cages) at the ball ﬁelds by March 16. The estate is claiming they own the batting cages, however, according to the council, they have not INDEX Obituary: 2 News: 3 Opinion: 4 Weather: 5 Sports: 6 Comics: 8 Classifieds: 9-10 paid rent.

Sisak Associated Press WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, is expected to give a behindthe-scenes account of what he will claim is Trump’s lying, racism and cheating, and possibly even criminal conduct, when he testiﬁes publicly before a House committee on Wednesday, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. Cohen is expected to provide what he will claim is evidence, in the form of documents, of Trump’s conduct, said the person, who requested anonymity to discuss the conﬁdential testimony. Trump’s former personal “ﬁxer” arrived on Capitol Hill on Tuesday to begin three days of congressional appearances, starting with a closed-door interview with the Senate intel- ligence committee. The public won’t have a chance to hear from him until Wednesday, when he testiﬁes before the House Oversight and Reform Committee. He will go behind closed doors again when he talks to the House intelligence committee on Thursday. White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said in a statement Tuesday it was “laughable that anyone would take a convicted liar like Cohen at his word, and pathetic to see him given yet another opportunity to spread his lies.” Lawmakers are alternately suspicious of Cohen — who is set to serve prison time for lying to the House and Senate intelligence committees in 2017 — and eager to hear what he has to say after he turned on his longtime boss. Senators on the intelligence panel are attending Tuesday’s meeting, a departure from the committee’s that. Burr suggested his committee will take steps to ensure Cohen is telling the truth. “I’m sure there will be some questions we know the answers to, so we’ll test him to see whether in fact he’ll be truthful this time,” Burr said.

Mother and adult daughter charged with killing 5 relatives House targets family separations By Colleen Long Associated Press WASHINGTON — A House committee voted Tuesday to subpoena Trump administration ofﬁcials over family separations at the southern border, the ﬁrst issued in the new Congress as Democrats have promised to hold the administration aggressively to count. The decision by the Oversight Committee will compel the heads of Justice, Homeland Security and Health and Human Services to deliver documents to lawmakers. The committee’s chairman, Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, has pledged to press the administration for documents and testimony on a wide swath of issues, but family separation was among his ﬁrst priorities. “I believe this is a true national emergency,” Cummings said. “When our own government rips children from the arms of their mothers and fathers with no plans to reunite them - that is MORRISVILLE, Pa.

The Oversight Committee is seeking details on the children separated, location and facilities where they were held, details on their parents, information on efforts to restore children to their parents and whether parents were deported. A Homeland Security spokesman said the department had already sent over 2,600 pages in response to the request. “Today’s unnecessary subpoena vote was a political stunt and contrary to the constitutionally mandated accommodation process,” said spokesman Tyler Houlton. “We have worked with congressional committees in good faith and will continue to do so. We hope they will return the favor and respect the process and the men and women of DHS.” Short-Stay Rehabilitation SWING BED SERVICE at PLEASANT VALLEY HOSPITAL WHAT IS SWING BED? Pleasant Valley Hospital offers a Joint Commission accredited Swing Bed Program which allows patients to remain at or transfer to our facility following discharge for rehabilitation. The short-stay program serves individuals who are in a transition phase of illness or recovery and no longer require acute care services. The program provides personalized nursing care and individualized therapies to assist patients in reaching their highest potential for health and independence prior to returning home. OHIO BRIEFS YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (AP) — An Arizona man who authorities say has been linked by DNA to the slayings of four women at truck stops in Ohio and Illinois during the 1990s has pleaded not guilty to charges in one of the Ohio slayings. Forty-nine-year-old Samuel Legg III, a former long-haul trucker, was arraigned Tuesday in Mahoning County on aggravated murder charges in the death of 43-yearold Sharon Kedzierski. Her body was found at a truck stop outside Youngstown in 1992. A message seeking comment was left with Legg’s attorney. Legg is being held in Ohio’s Medina County, where he faces rape charges for the 1997 sexual assault of a 17-year-old girl. Little else is known publicly about the other slayings. Authorities have said three occurred in Ohio and the fourth was in Illinois. COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The family of a patient who died is suing an Ohio care facility where alleged neglect led to criminal charges against employees. A wrongful-death lawsuit against Whetstone Gardens and Care Center in Columbus was ﬁled Monday over the March 2017 death of 56-year-old James Chandler. His mother alleges Chandler died because nurses didn’t properly recognize and get treatment for an infected bedsore. She’s seeking at least $25,000 in damages. A spokesman for Whetstone, Ryan Stubenrauch, says Chandler’s death after a ﬁve-day hospital stay wasn’t caused by the care he received at Whetstone. His death and the alleged neglect of another patient led to charges this month against six Whetstone employees and a contracted nurse practitioner. The nurse practitioner, assistant nursing director and a unit manager were charged with involuntary manslaughter. DeWine’s pick a physician COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Gov. Mike DeWine has nominated a licensed physician with more than 30 years of experience in public health and preventive medicine to direct Ohio’s Department of Public Health. The state’s Republican governor on Tuesday announced the selection of Dr. Amy Acton to lead the department. A news release from the governor’s ofﬁce says Acton most recently served as a community research and grants management ofﬁcer at the Columbus Foundation. She previously had served as an assistant professor at Ohio State University’s College of Public Health and holds a master’s degree in public health from that university. WHAT SERVICES ARE INCLUDED? HOW LONG CAN PATIENTS STAY? The program is ideal The Swing Bed program is considered short-term. The average length of stay for patients who participate and make progress is generally one to two weeks. For patients unable to return home that require long-term care, referrals to Pleasant Valley Nursing & Rehabilitation Center or another long-term care facility may be made. for patients who require skilled nursing services, physical, occupational and/or speech therapy. “The Swing Bed program allows physicians to ‘swing’ a patient’s level of care from an acute level to rehabilitation level while keeping them in a hospital setting. The purpose of the swing bed program is to give patients individualized care and more time to recover and gain strength before leaving the hospital.” Amber Findley &KLHI�1XUVLQJ�2IÀFHU�& ([HFXWLYH�'LUHFWRU�RI� 1XUVLQJ�6HUYLFHV WHEN IS SWING BED APPROPRIATE?

Let us care about women of color. Could the civil rights movement have happened without black women? No, indeed. “Let It Shine, Stories of Black Women Freedom Fighters” (HMH Books for Young Readers, 2013), authored by Andrea Davis Pinkney and illustrated by Stephen Alcorn, is recommended. Melissa Bold. Gutsy. Plucky. Scrappy. Martin Determined. Spirited. Sojourner Contributing Truth, Biddy Mason, Harriet Tubcolumnist man, Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Mary McLeod Bethune, Ella Baker, Dorothy Irene Height, Rosa Parks, Fannie Lou Hamer and Shirley Chisholm are featured. Born into slavery as Isabella Baumfree in 1797, Sojourner Truth was an Afro-American women’s rights activist. Her famous “Ain’t I a Woman” speech was delivered in 1851 at the Ohio Women’s Rights Convention. “…And ain’t I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother’s grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain’t I a woman?” “Nobody’s free until everybody is free.” Fannie Lou Hamer dedicated her life to ﬁghting racial injustice. In 1964, she co-founded the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party and ran for Congress in Mississippi in 1965. The ﬁrst African-American woman elected to Congress, Shirley Chisholm of New York, won election to the House in 1968. Of the 127 women serving in the 116th Congress, 22 are black. In 1993, Carol Moseley Braun became the ﬁrst African American female to serve as U.S. senator. Gloria Jean Watkins, known by her pen name bell hooks, is the author of “Feminism is for Everybody.” The bell hooks Institute in Berea, Kentucky, celebrates, honors, and documents the life and work of this acclaimed intellectual, feminist theorist, cultural critic, artist, and writer. Known as the “Mother of the American Civil Rights Movement,” Septima Poinsette Clark was an activist, teacher, and advocate for education. “In the 20th century, African American women formed the backbone of the modern Civil Rights Movement. They were the critical mass, the grassroots leaders challenging America to embrace justice and equality for all,” according to The National Women’s History Museum. There were countless unnamed African American women who struggled for freedom and justice. Let us remember them as well. NASA’s employees Katherine Johnson, Mary Jackson, and Dorothy Vaughan were black scientists featured in the ﬁlm “Hidden Figures.” Astronaut Mae Jemison became the ﬁrst African American woman in space in 1992. Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama, Condoleezza Rice, Joycelyn Elders, Maya Angelou and other black women stand as icons for civil rights and equality. The Civil Rights Movement was triumphant in 1964 and 1965, with the federal government’s passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The State of Ohio enacted the Ohio Civil Rights Act of 1959 to “prevent and eliminate the practice of discrimination in employment against persons because of their race, color, religion, national origin, or ancestry.” The Ohio Civil Rights Act established the Ohio Civil Rights Commission to help eliminate discrimination in Ohio. The Ohio Civil Rights Hall of Fame was created in 2009. The Civil Rights Hall of Fame seeks to acknowledge outstanding Ohioans who are recognized as pioneers in human and civil rights and who have advanced the goals of equality and inclusion.

She was a municipal judge, trial court judge and Cuyahoga County prosecutor. Sophia Mitchell was the ﬁrst African American woman to serve as a mayor in Ohio. In 1976, she was appointed in Perry County. “Just remember the world is not a playground but a schoolroom. Life is not a holiday but an education. One eternal lesson for us all: to teach us how better we should love,” proclaimed Barbara Jordan, the ﬁrst Southern African American woman elected to the United States House of Representatives. See HISTORY | 5 THEIR VIEW Faith, hope and pluck The free exercise of religion is the rock upon which America was built. But it was the free exercise of ambition which did the building. Ambition took tiny Burt Perrine — he stood 5’7” — from Indiana to Idaho in 1881. A small man with big ideas, Burt invested his money in milk cows, selling fresh milk to copper mining communities. His travels took him to the rim of the Snake River canyon. Looking down upon the raging river, Burt peered into the future. His mind and imagination translated that power into an irrigation system that would water the surrounding sagebrush desert into millions of acres of productive farmland. Think Idaho potatoes. But Burt faced immense obstacles of engineering construction, investment capital, and political opposition. His partner, Cyclone Bob, tells the story: “Bringing a big town (Idaho Falls, Idaho) and well-to-do country out of sagebrush in just one year sounded like a lie (an impossibility) to me. But Burt Perrine had the nerve and foresight to do it. I was going to quit. I didn’t into prominence. think it could come Using his time true.” and talent with A Paciﬁc a dose of Burt’s Magazine reporter “faith, hope and who interviewed pluck,” Hervey Cyclone Bob added Bates became the rest of the a co-founder of story. “A big tunnel James Indianapolis and was built through Burns rock by Bob Contributing the new city’s leading banker, builder McCollum and Burt columnist and businessman.

Honesty and integrity can collide with a corruption, cheating and evil that tests the entrepreneur’s character. Adam Smith referred to an invisible hand guiding market forces. Perhaps there’s also an invisible hand guiding moral forces. Much as the market requires rules and regulation to work out its imperfections, so our moral and cultural system is gradually moved to correct gross denials of civil rights and other inequities. Americans eventually “get it right.” Our nation is now in a global competition of great intensity. If a ﬁrm moral rudder guides our economic system and ship of state, new layers of prosperity and progress will be added. Our future will be bright if men and women of ambition and integrity continue to emerge — like Burt Perrine and Hervey Bates. Let’s get it right. James F.

Today’s Highlight in History On Feb. 27, 1951, the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, limiting a president to two terms of ofﬁce, was ratiﬁed. On this date In 1801, the District of Columbia was placed under the jurisdiction of Congress. In 1911, inventor Charles F. Kettering demonstrated his electric automobile starter in Detroit by starting a Cadillac’s motor with just the press of a switch, instead of hand-cranking. In 1922, the Supreme Court, in Leser v. Garnett, unanimously upheld the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, which guaranteed the right of women to vote. In 1933, Germany’s parliament building, the Reichstag, was gutted by ﬁre; Chancellor Adolf Hitler, blaming the Communists, used the ﬁre to justify suspending civil liberties. In 1943, during World War II, Norwegian commandos launched a successful raid to sabotage a German-operated heavy water plant in Norway. An explosion inside a coal mine near Bearcreek, Montana, killed 74 miners and one rescue worker.

In 1960, the U.S. Olympic hockey team defeated the Soviets, 3-2, at the Winter Games in Squaw Valley, California. (The U.S. team went on to win the gold medal.) In 1968, at the conclusion of a CBS News special report on the Vietnam War, Walter Cronkite delivered a commentary in which he said that the conﬂict appeared “mired in stalemate.” Former teen singing idol Frankie Lymon, known for such songs as “Why Do Fools Fall in Love” and “Goody Goody,” was found dead of a drug overdose in New York at age 25.

(AP) — New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft visited a Florida massage parlor for sex acts the night before and the morning of last month’s AFC championship game, authorities said Monday in documents charging him with two misdemeanor counts of soliciting prostitution. Kraft is one of hundreds of men charged in recent days as part of a crackdown on prostitution allegedly occurring in massage parlors between Palm Beach and Orlando. Ten spas have been closed and several people, most of them women originally from China, have been charged with running the operation. The 77-year-old Kraft was chauffeured to the Orchids of Asia Day Spa in a 2014 white Bentley on the evening of Jan. 19, where police say they videotaped him engaging in a sex act and then handing over an undetermined amount of cash, Jupiter, Florida, police said in charging documents released by the Palm Beach State Attorney’s Ofﬁce. Investigators said Kraft returned 17 hours later, arriving at the upper-middle class shopping center where the spa was located in a chauffeured 2015 blue Bentley, the documents said. Kraft, who is worth $6 billion, was videotaped engaging in sex acts before paying with a $100 bill and another bill, police said. He then ﬂew to Kansas City to watch his Patriots defeat the Chiefs in overtime hours later. Kraft, whose team won the Super Bowl earlier this month in Atlanta, denied wrongdoing Friday, shortly after Jupiter police announced he was being charged. The NFL said Monday in a statement that its personal conduct policy “applies equally to everyone in the NFL” and it will handle “this allegation in the same way we would handle any issue under the policy.” Kraft’s wife, Myra Hiatt Kraft, died in 2011. He has been dating 39-year-old actress Ricki Noel Lander since 2012. Another high-proﬁle businessman, former Citigroup President John Havens, 62, is also charged with paying for sex at the Orchids of Asia spa. He too has denied wrongdoing. He was Citigroup president in 2011 and 2012. He now runs a hedge fund that was spun off from Citigroup. Twentythree other men are also charged in Palm Beach County, with others charged in a string of counties spanning more than 150 miles (240 kilometers). Palm Beach State Attorney Dave Aronberg said Kraft will be issued a summons that is similar to a trafﬁc ticket and assigned a day to appear in court.

The wrestling programs at River Valley, Eastern and South Gallia collectively produced 11 district qualiﬁers and 16 sectional placers this past weekend during the Division III sectional wrestling tournament held at Barnesville High School and Blanchester High School. The Raiders led the Ohio Valley Publishing area with a school-best seven district qualiﬁers out of the Southwest Sectional at Blanchester, with the Rebels also securing the program’s ﬁrst two district qualiﬁers in history at the same meet. The Eagles — the lone area program competing at the East Sectional at Barnesville — produced two district qualiﬁers for the second year in a row, as well as the program’s ﬁrst-ever two-time advancee out of sectionals. River Valley had nine top-six efforts and three individual sectional champions en route to a record-tying third place effort of 188.5 points. The ﬁnal RVHS tally also set a school mark for most points ever scored at a sectional tournament. Host Blanchester won the D-3 sectional crown with 229 points, while Bethel-Tate was the run- ner-up with 197 points. SGHS ended up ninth out of 27 teams with 57 points. The Silver and Black received sectional titles from senior Jacob Edwards, freshman Will Hash and senior Eric Weber. Hash secured his ﬁrst district berth by going 4-0 with four pinfalls at 145 pounds. Edwards is headed to his fourth district tournament after going 3-0 with two pinfalls at 126 pounds, while Weber is headed to his third district meet after going 4-0 with four pinfalls at 182 pounds. Senior Joseph Burns also notched his third district appearance after going 3-1 with three pinfalls while placing third overall at 120 pounds. Freshman Nathan Cadle and sophomore Ryan Weber both secured their ﬁrst district berths with a pair of third place ﬁnishes. Cadle went 4-1 with two pinfalls and two major decisions at 138 pounds, with Ryan Weber going 3-1 with three pinfalls at 220 pounds.

(AP) — The Indians want to see if Hanley Ramirez can still swing it. The free agent slugger ﬁnalized a minor league contract on Tuesday with Cleveland, which is looking to replenish some power lost following several offseason moves. The 35-year-old Ramirez passed his physical and reported to training camp, arriving with a Boston Red Sox equipment bag after spending the past four seasons with them. If added to the 40-man roster, Ramirez would get a $1 million salary while in the major leagues and the chance to earn performance bonuses. “The hope is that he will be a middle-of-the-ordertype bat,” Indians manager Terry Francona said. “I told him to tell me when he thinks he’s ready to get in some games. We need to get a look at him, but you can rush it and mess it up.” Ramirez, who has 269 homers, played in just 44 games with Boston last season before he was released. Ramirez is the only active major leaguer with at least 250 homers and 250 stolen bases and one of just seven with more than 250 homers and 1,000 runs. Cleveland needs some offensive pop after Michael Brantley left as a free agent and Edwin Encarnacion and Yonder Alonso were traded. That trio combined for 72 homers and 266 RBIs in 2018. The Indians are expected to use Ramirez primarily as a designated hitter, but he can also play some ﬁrst base. When camp opened, Carlos Santana and Jake Bauers, who can also play in the outﬁeld, were going to share time at those two spots. Francona said there’s no pressure on Ramirez. “We ask the same of every single player, show up on time and be a good teammate, try to be as good as you can.” He said. “Whether a guy hit .300 in 1999 or whether he didn’t run a ball out in 2012, doesn’t inﬂuence us here.” A three-time All-Star, Ramirez was voted NL Rookie of the Year in 2006 with Florida. Ramirez broke into the big leagues as a shortstop and he spent a brief period with Francona in Boston before he was traded in 2005 to the Marlins for pitcher Josh Beckett after just two at-bats in the majors.

The Central Divisionleading Winnipeg Jets tried to give themselves a late-season boost by acquiring center Kevin Hayes from the New York Rangers on Monday, while the Colorado Avalanche picked up forward Derick Brassard from Florida. All three teams were busy, but more trades were expected to be announced later Monday. Among the players who were expected to move were Ottawa’s Mark Stone and Philadelphia’s Wayne Simmonds. The Blue Jackets grabbed the day’s early headlines by acquir- ing defenseman Adam McQuaid from the New York Rangers and goalie Keith Kinkaid from New Jersey. General manager Jarmo Kekalainen actually went to work last week by acquiring Ottawa forwards Ryan Dzingel and Matt Duchene in separate deals. “I think Jarmo — and that’s what I love about him — I think he’s got some jam. He wants to win,” coach John Tortorella said. “He’s letting the team know, and the team has heard it loud and clear, that he’s worked hard to upgrade our roster.” The Blue Jackets altered initial expectations in being buyers rather than sellers at the deadline. Aside from their additions, the Blue Jackets retained forward Artemi Panarin and goalie Sergei Bobrovsky, two players eligible to leave New York, but I’m excited to join the Jets,” Hayes said. “I mean, everybody knows how good they are and the type of players they have on their team.” With 78 points, Winnipeg has a one-point edge on second-place Nashville in the Central Division, and attempting to shake off a slump in which the Jets have gone 3-5-2 in their past 10. The Avalanche acquired Brassard in a bid to keep pace in a tightly packed group of teams competing for the West’s two wild-card Tom Gannam | AP spots.
