The College of Arts and Sciences plans to hire fewer graduate students and lecturers next year because of the shortfall, and other cost-cutting efforts have yet to be planned. The Columbus Dispatch reports Monday that the college’s budget deficit for the coming school year amounts to about 3.75 percent of its annual budget. It follows a $4.6 million deficit that the school filled with cash savings last year. Spending has outpaced revenue each year since 2013, and its cash reserves are dwindling. The college’s financial problems are separate from the university’s central budget. Each college receives a slice of university revenue based on the number of credit hours students take in that school. Administrators then decide how to divide the money between departments. The budget woes are causing tension between faculty members and the Arts and Science’s dean. Leaders of 23 departments and centers in the college told the university provost in a letter this month that they are losing confidence in Dean David Manderscheid. Among other issues, they wrote that “his erratic handling and communication of our recent financial challenges has exacerbated problems of confidence to the point that he has lost the respect and trust of faculty in leadership positions within the college.” Manderscheid told the newspaper that he’s focused on fixing the college’s problems. “I don’t believe in placing blame; I believe in moving forward.” See GAP | 5 Want To Reach Over 10,000 Households in Southeast Ohio?

Tiger mascot at issue in crackdown COLUMBUS (AP) — A school that uses a live tiger cub as a mascot has been warned it must submit more documentation to continue that tradition without violating Ohio’s law on dangerous animals. The booster club that provides tigers for Massillon Washington High School is among more than a dozen animal owners contacted by the Ohio Department of Agriculture in recent months over compliance concerns, according to records obtained by The Associated Press. It’s not clear if or how that might affect the live-mascot tradition in Massillon, where football passion runs deep: Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals founder Paul Brown got his start as a high school coach in the northeast Ohio city, and each boy born there gets a football in his bassinet. And, for each football season since 1970, they’ve brought in a new tiger cub called Obie. A limited exemption for the tradition — the only one of its kind in Ohio — was included in the law enacted after a suicidal man released dozens of bears, mountain lions and tigers from his farm near Zanesville in 2011. The state isn’t trying to end the tradition but has to make sure it continues within the bounds of that law, ODA spokeswoman Erica Hawkins said. School and booster club officials didn’t respond to messages seeking comment, and they haven’t replied to the ODA notification sent April 28. The boosters previously showed they have the required insurance, but the letter says they must provide more proof of meeting exemption Rutland Bottle Gas Hawkins noted that the boosters aren’t currently violating the law because they haven’t brought in a new cub. Locals say not having one would be a heartbreaker. “Some people, probably, on the outside would think it’s a goofy tradition, but people just love that tiger,” school board member Mary Strukel said, noting the cat makes rounds at schools and nursing homes during the week of the rivalry game against Canton McKinley. Rick Smith, a 50-yearold lifelong Massillon resident, noted that McKinley has a bulldog on the sidelines. “You can get rid of that,” he said, chuckling.

The state needed more documentation last year, too, as it began enforcement efforts, but it became a moot point when that tiger stopped being displayed because it grew too big, Hawkins said. ODA’s enforcement responsibilities are relatively recent, but it isn’t aware of any previous serious problems with the live mascot, she said.

Wittner Guest Columnist Forty years after the American war in Vietnam ended in ignominious defeat, the traces of that terrible conflict are disappearing. Traveling through Vietnam during the latter half of April with a group of erstwhile antiwar activists, I was struck by the transformation of what was once an impoverished, war-devastated peasant society into a modern nation. Its cities and towns are bustling with life and energy. Vast numbers of motor bikes surge through their streets, including 4.2 million in Hanoi and 7 million in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon). A thriving commercial culture has emerged, based not only on many small shops, but on an influx of giant Western, Japanese and other corporations. Although Vietnam is officially a Communist nation, about 40 percent of the economy is capitalist, and the government is making great efforts to encourage private foreign investment. Indeed, over the past decade, Vietnam has enjoyed one of the highest economic growth rates in the world. Not only have manufacturing and tourism expanded dramatically, but Vietnam has become an agricultural powerhouse. Today it is the world’s second largest exporter of rice, and one of the world’s leading exporters of coffee, pepper, rubber and other agricultural commodities. Another factor distancing the country from what the Vietnamese call “the American War” is the rapid increase in Vietnam’s population. Only 41 million in 1975, it now tops 90 million, with most of it under the age of 30 — too young to have any direct experience with the conflict. Vietnam has also made a remarkable recovery in world affairs. It now has diplomatic relations with 189 countries, and enjoys good relations with all the major nations. Nevertheless, the people of Vietnam paid a very heavy price for their independence from foreign domination. Some three million of them died in the American War, and another 300,000 are still classified as MIAs. In addition, many, many Vietnamese were wounded or crippled in the conflict. Perhaps the most striking long-term damage resulted from the U.S. military’s use of Agent Orange (dioxin) as a defoliant. Vietnamese officials estimate that some four million of their people suffer the terrible effects of this chemical, which not only destroys the bodies of those exposed to it, but has led to horrible birth defects and developmental disabilities into the second and third generations. Much of Vietnam’s land remains contaminated by Agent Orange, as well as by unexploded ordnance (UXO). Indeed, since the end of the American war in 1975, the landmines, shells and bombs that continue to litter the nation’s soil have wounded or killed over 105,000 Vietnamese — many of them children. During the immediate postwar years, Vietnam’s ruin was exacerbated by additional factors. These included a U.S. government embargo on trade with Vietnam, U.S. government efforts to isolate Vietnam diplomatically, and a 1979 Chinese military invasion of Vietnam employing 600,000 troops. Although the Vietnamese managed to expel the Chinese — just as they had previously routed the French and the Americans — China continued border skirmishes with Vietnam until 1988. In addition, during the first postwar decade, the ruling Vietnamese Communist Party pursued a hardline, repressive policy that undermined what was left of the economy and alienated much of the population. Misery and starvation were widespread. Nevertheless, starting in the mid-1980s, the country made a remarkable comeback. This recovery was facilitated by Communist Party reformers who loosened the reins of power, encouraged foreign investment, and worked at developing a friendlier relationship with other nations, especially the United States. In 1995, the U.S. and Vietnamese governments resumed diplomatic relations. Although these changes did not provide a panacea for the nation’s ills — for example, the U.S. State Department informed the new U.S. ambassador that he must never mention Agent Orange — Vietnam’s circumstances, and particularly its relationship with the United States, gradually improved. U.S.-Vietnamese trade expanded substantially, reaching $35 billion in 2014. Thousands of Vietnamese students participated in educational exchanges. In recent years, the U.S. government even began funding programs to help clean up Agent Orange contamination and UXO. This shift from warring enemies to cooperative partners over the past 40 years should lead to solemn reflection. In the Vietnam War, the U.S. government laid waste to a poor peasant nation in an effort to prevent the triumph of a Communist revolution that U.S. policymakers insisted would result in the conquest of the United States. And yet, when this counterrevolutionary effort collapsed, the predicted Red tide did not sweep over the shores of California. Instead, an independent nation emerged that could — and did — work amicably with the U.S. government. This development highlights the unnecessary nature — indeed, the tragedy — of America’s vastly destructive war in Vietnam. It also underscores the deeper folly of relying on war to cope with international issues. Lawrence Wittner, syndicated by PeaceVoice, is Professor of History emeritus at SUNY/Albany.

Today’s Highlight in History: On May 19, 1935, T.E. Lawrence, also known as “Lawrence of Arabia,” died in Dorset, England, six days after being injured in a motorcycle crash. On this date: In A.D. 715, Pope Gregory II assumed the papacy. In 1536, Anne Boleyn, the second wife of England’s King Henry VIII, was beheaded after being convicted of adultery. In 1780, a mysterious darkness enveloped much of New England and part of Canada in the early afternoon. In 1913, California Gov. Hiram Johnson signed the Webb-Hartley Law prohibiting “aliens ineligible to citizenship” from owning farm land, a measure targeting Asian immigrants, particularly Japanese. In 1924, the Marx Brothers made their Broadway debut in the revue “I’ll Say She Is.” In 1943, in his second wartime address to the U.S. Congress, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill pledged his country’s full support in the fight against Japan. In 1958, British actor Ronald Colman died in Santa Barbara, Calif., at age 67. In 1962, actress Marilyn Monroe sang “Happy Birthday to You” to President John F. Kennedy during a Democratic fundraiser at New York’s Madison Square Garden. In 1973, Secretariat won the Preakness Stakes, the second of his Triple Crown victories. In 1981, five British soldiers were killed by an Irish Republican Army landmine in County Armagh, Northern Ireland. In 1992, in a case that drew much notoriety, Mary Jo Buttafuoco of Massapequa, N.Y., was shot and seriously wounded by her husband Joey’s teenage lover, Amy Fisher. Vice President Dan Quayle sparked controversy by criticizing the CBS sitcom “Murphy Brown” for having its title character, played by Candice Bergen, decide to have a child out of wedlock. In 1994, former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis died in New York at age 64. Ten years ago: Republicans and Democrats tangled over President George W. Bush’s judicial nominees and the Senate’s filibuster rules, with Democrats accusing Bush of trying to “rewrite the Constitution” and Republicans accusing Democrats of “unprecedented obstruction.” Five years ago: President Barack Obama condemned Arizona’s crackdown on illegal immigration and pushed instead for a federal fix he said the nation could embrace, showing solidarity with his guest of honor, Mexican President Felipe Calderon, who called Arizona’s law discriminatory. Rioters in Bangkok torched the stock exchange and other landmark buildings after a deadly army assault on an anti-government encampment ended a two-month siege.

The 12th-seeded River Valley baseball team scored six times in the fourth inning of the Division III sectional final in Jackson County, helping the Silver and Black claim their firstever sectional title by an 8-7 count over fifthseeded Oak Hill. “It’s huge for us,” River Valley head coach Bobby Jeffers said. “This group of boys, which includes some four-year lettermen, has struggled at times putting the total package together. It’s all coming together now that it’s at the end of the season, which is when it matters most.” The Oaks (18-11) scored twice in both of the first two innings, while scoring once in the third to take the 5-0 lead. River Valley (6-12), which was held hitless through the first three frames, got on the board in the in the top of the fourth when Austin Barber singled home Dillon Ragan. Austin Barber then scored on a double by Cody Lee, Brycen Hatfield scored on a single by Jamie Bainter and Lee scored on a single by Timmy Kemper. The Raiders took the lead with two outs in the fourth as Kemper and Bainter both scored on a Justin Sizemore single. See RAIDERS | 10 Eagles shut down Peebles, 4-0 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — He looked a heck of lot older than a freshman. Eastern starter Austin Coleman struck out 10 while allowing only two hits and five total baserunners over seven innings Saturday during a 4-0 victory over seventh-seeded Peebles in a Division IV district semifinal baseball game at Paint Stadium in Ross County. The third-seeded Eagles (15-6) received a pitching gem from Coleman, who was making his first-ever start in the district tournament. Coleman struck out six of the first nine batters he faced and fanned half of the first 20 Indians (4-7) that came to the plate, all while not allowing a hit past the third inning. EHS also provided the freshman hurler with more than enough offensive support, which included a pair of runs in the top of the first. Tyler Morris led the game off with a triple, then Coleman helped his own cause with an RBI-single that plated Morris for a 1-0 edge. Coleman was later picked off at first, but Cameron Richmond added to the lead with an inside the park home run. Richmond hit a line drive to center that got past the centerfielder and rolled to the wall, which allowed Richmond to easily stroll home standing up for a 2-0 lead midway through one inning of play. Peebles got a twoout single from Steven Penn in the second and received a two-out double from Lane Hanson in the third, but both runners were stranded — allowing Eastern to maintain its 2-0 lead through three complete. The Eagles tacked on another run in the top of the fourth after Josh Brewer started things with a one-out triple, then Kaleb Hill singled home Brewer for a 3-0 advantage. Jesse Morris completed Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Eastern freshman Austin Coleman (12) delivers a pitch during the second inning of Saturday’s Division IV district semifinal baseball game against Peebles at Paint Stadium in Chillicothe, Ohio. Coleman struck out 10 and surrendered only two hits during a 4-0 complete-game victory. the scoring with a leadoff single in the seventh and later came home on a sacrifice fly by Tyler Morris, wrapping up the 4-0 triumph. Eastern now advances to its first district final since 2012 and will face top-seeded Trimble at 7 p.m. Monday night at Paint Stadium. The Eagles lost both regular season contests to the Tomcats by identical scores of 2-1. Afterwards, 15th-year EHS head coach Brian Bowen spoke highly about his squad and their respective performance. “It was a tremendous team effort. Austin was pretty good today and it helped that he knew that he had some good support around him, both in the field and at the plate,” Bowen said. “The early offense helped and I know that Austin has a ton of confidence on the mound. Today was just a good day for us all the way around. “These are good kids who have battled through some adversity, but they deserve to be in this position. I’m particularly happy for the upperclassmen because it’s been a while since they’ve been in a district final. Now we just have to take care of business Monday night and hopefully move on to regionals.” EHS will be going for the program’s ninth district title and first since the 2011 campaign. Bowen has also led the Eagles to district titles in 2002, 2005, 2007 and 2011. Eastern outhit the hosts by a sizable 9-2 overall margin, with Peebles committing the only error of the game. The guests stranded six runners on base, while the Indians left four on the bags. Coleman was the winning pitcher of record after allowing zero runs, two hits and three walks over seven innings while striking out 10. Blake Stivers took the loss after surrendering four earned runs, nine hits and two walks over seven frames while fanning three. Coleman and Jesse Morris led Eastern with two hits apiece, followed by Richmond, Brewer, Hill, Tyler Morris and Christian Speelman with a safety each. Coleman, Richmond, Hill and Tyler Morris each drove in a run, while Richmond, Brewer, Tyler Morris and Jesse Morris each scored once for the victors.

(This is a public service announcement from the Ohio Valley Publishing Company) CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Denny Hamlin intently watched the qualifying event for NASCAR’s annual All-Star race and noticed, as has been the case in recent years, the driver out front in the waning laps was almost certainly guaranteed the win. As Greg Biffle led all 20 laps of the Sprint Showdown to earn a spot in the All-Star race, Hamlin understood that nothing about NASCAR’s current rules package has changed. To win the $1 million prize on Saturday night, he’d have to be the leader exiting Turn 2 on the first lap of the final segment. Hamlin wasn’t alone in that theory. With clean air so critical in this current rules package, chasing down the leader during a short run is next to impossible. The 110-lap All-Star race concludes with a 10-lap sprint to the finish and it’s proven time and again to not be enough laps for a challenger to mount a formidable attempt at the win. “The final 10 laps, you’ve got to be on the front row,” Hamlin said. “Aero means so much with these cars nowadays that the person out front just has a huge advantage. I knew once we got cleared going into turn one, we had a great shot.” Help Wanted General Apartments/Townhouses Want To Buy Job opening for full-time general maintenance worker for Village of Rio Grande.
