According to information from the Ohio Association of Foodbanks, about 44 percent of all school-aged children receive free or reduced-price school meals through the National School Lunch Program. While a summer food service program was initiated last summer, participation in the areas included showed that only 1 in 10 eligible children were served. Last summer Meigs County, heavy on children receiving free or reduced breakfasts and lunches at school, had two ongoing summer food programs. The Meigs Local School District with grant funding from the Governor’s Office of Faith Based and Community Initiatives had a summer feeding program last year. The school district was selected as one of five organizations in the state to pilot innovative methods for meal delivery to children in rural areas as part of the initiative. Ten weeks of meals were picked up at one of eight locations in the school district by the qualifying families. A second summer feeding program was initiated by the Meigs County Council on Aging with funds from the Ohio Department of Education. Meals were prepared at the Senior Citizens Center and delivered to various sites around the county. Both agencies anticipate grant funding to continue those programs this year, but neither have yet received confirmation of that. In recognition of the nutrition problem 250 federal, state and local stakeholders came together recently for the third annual statewide Summer Food Service Summit, held at the Mid-Ohio Foodbank in Grove City. Those attending focused on best practices for program outreach, meal planning and food procurement along with summer meal preparation demonstrations. Many experts in child nutri- tion programs and policy, including U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown, addressed the group about the importance of summer nutrition programs for Ohio’s children and how upcoming Child Nutrition Reauthorization could impact the ability of local organizations to provide those important services. “I know the challenges that you face getting the students and the parents notified and always trying to reach out to people who have a hundred things going on in their lives,” Brown said. “The work you’re doing is so important. You’re showing people every day what you stand for and what you believe, and there’s no better way to do it than to feed hungry children.” Lisa Hamler-Fugitt, executive director for the Ohio Association of Foodbanks, stressed how damaging a lack of adequate nutrition can be to a child’s ability to succeed during the school year. “We don’t need any more research on this. We have decades of research that tells us that a lack of adequate nutrition can deter health outcomes as well as educational attainment,” she said. “We must commit as a community and as a state to provide for the basic nutritional needs of our children.” She added that schools and organizations interested in learning more about the Summer Food Service Program can visit the Ohio Department of Education website or call (877) 6446338 for more information. Women’s Health Day offering free screenings By Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@civitasmedia.com There was plenty of interest in coins on display for exchange or trade. Submitted photos Interest high in Coin Club show By Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — About 200 people looking to buy, sell or trade coins, satisfy curiosity, or pass the time of day attended the 52nd annual spring show of the Oh-Kan Coil Club held recently in the conference room at the Quality Inn in Gallipolis.

RUTLAND — The Ohio State University mobile van for performing mammograms and the OUCOM clinical van for breast checks and Pap tests is coming to Rutland on April 29, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., as a part of Meigs County’s Women’s Health Day observance. The vans will be parked in the Rutland Church of God parking lot, while inside the church there will be Think Pink Breast Health Education personnel doing other types of screenings and distributing informational pamphlets. Holzer and other health agencies will be testing for things like cholesterol and blood sugar, along with osteoporosis screenings, on a drop-in basis. For mammograms, breast checks and Paps, appointments are needed, and according to Carolyn Grueser of the Think Pink office, most women qualify for the testing without charge. About six appointment slots remain open. For an appointment or more information, women can contact the Think Pink office at (740) 992-5469 or 992-3853. Gasoline vouchers of $10 are available to encourage women to take advantage of the tests. In most instances, Susan Koeman grants finance the cost for women, 35 to 65 years old, those uninsured or even those with insurance with high deductibles. Norma Torres, director of Think Pink and chairperson of MCCI, pointed out that breast cancer is the second-most common cancer in women and stressed the importance of periodic testing. She noted that Ohio ranks fourth nationally in breast cancer deaths, and reported that this year, more than 3,000 Ohio women will die of breast cancer, according to statistics released by the Komen agency. That is why the Meigs County Cancer Initiative has been concentrating on this type of cancer for close to a decade, she said. In our lifetime, 1 in every 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, according to Torres, adding that there is no reason for any woman to die of breast cancer when there are so many free or low-cost services available that can lead to early detection. Gallia vet receives long-overdue military service medals By Michael Johnson michaeljohnson@civitasmedia.com GALLIPOLIS — Joe Roberts thought he was going to the Gallia County Courthouse on Tuesday morning take care of some legal business. What he received while at the courthouse were numerous medals and decorations for his service in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. Roberts, of Gallia County, was presented with 14 military service medals by Ohio Congressman Bill Johnson in a surprise ceremony in the county auditor’s office. While he began producing paperwork to take care of his business, Johnson walked up to Roberts and began to congratulate him for his medals and military service. “I thought I was in trouble,” Roberts said upon seeing Johnson. “I’m my dad’s legal guardian. I was told I needed to come down here to take care of some paperwork for him. I did not have a clue – not a clue — that this was going to happen. I have a big family, so someone should’ve leaked it. I can’t believe it. These people can keep secrets.” AT LEFT, Gallia County resident Joe Roberts displays his military service medals and decorations in the county auditor’s office, where he was surprised Tuesday morning during a ceremony set up by Congressman Bill Johnson.

Court critical of Ohio law punishing campaign lies WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court appears to be highly skeptical of laws that try to police false statements during political campaigns, raising doubts about the viability of such laws in more than 15 states. Justices expressed those concerns early and often Tuesday during arguments in a case challenging an Ohio law that bars people from recklessly making false statements about candidates seeking elective office. The case has attracted widespread attention, with both liberal and conservative groups saying the law tramples on the time-honored, if dubious, tradition of political mudslinging. Critics say free speech demands wide-open debate during political campaigns, including protection for negative speech that may sometimes twist the facts. The high court is not expected to rule directly on the constitutional issue because the current question before the justices is only a preliminary one: Can you challenge the law right away, or do you have to wait until the state finds you guilty of lying? But the justices couldn’t resist going after the law itself, pointing out that the mere prospect of being hauled in front of state officials to explain comments made in the heat of an election has a chilling effect on speech. “What’s the harm?” Justice Stephen Breyer asked Eric Murphy, attorney for the state of Ohio. “I can’t speak, that’s the harm.” Justice Anthony Kennedy said there’s “a serious First Amendment concern with a state law that requires you to come before a commission to justify what you are going to say.” The case began during the 2010 election when a national anti-abortion group, the Susan B. Anthony List, planned to put up billboards accusing then-Rep. Steve Driehaus of supporting taxpayer-funded abortion because he voted for President Barack Obama’s new health AP Photo Negative campaigning and mudslinging may be a fact of life in American politics, but can false accusations made in the heat of an election be punished as a crime? That debate makes its way to the Supreme Court as the justices consider a challenge to a controversial Ohio law that bars false statements about political candidates during a campaign. Attorney General Mike DeWine says he has serious concerns about the law. care law. Driehaus, a Democrat who opposes abortion, claimed the group’s billboard ads distorted the truth and therefore violated the false speech law. Driehaus filed a complaint with the Ohio Elections Commission, an action which prompted the billboard owner to decline posting the ads. The commission found probable cause that the ads violated the law, but Driehaus later withdrew his complaint after losing his reelection campaign. The Susan B. Anthony List then challenged the state law as unconstitutional, but a federal judge said the group didn’t have the right to sue because it hadn’t yet suffered actual harm. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati agreed. Murphy argued that the Susan B. Anthony List has not shown a credible threat of harm because the Driehaus case was ultimately dismissed before it was referred to a prosecutor. But Justice Elena Kagan wondered why a probable cause determination didn’t count as harm. For the average voter, “they think prob- able cause means you probably lied,” she said. Chief Justice Roberts pointed out that third parties such as TV stations or billboard owners are going to be intimidated by the law, preventing a group from getting its message out. “The slightest whiff of this is going to be legal trouble,” Roberts said. Justice Antonin Scalia said the Susan B. Anthony List intends to make the same charges against other Democrats in the next election. He said the harm is that the group fears being dragged before the “Ministry of Truth” for similar proceedings, referring to the government propaganda office in George Orwell’s novel “Nineteen Eighty-Four.” At one point, Murphy reminded the justices that they were not there to debate the merits of the law, just the question of standing. But Breyer said the merits discussion is meant to suggest “that there are real people who would really like to speak in an election campaign. And if they feel they can’t they are really being hurt.” Michael Carvin, attorney for the Susan B. Anthony List, suggested that election speech has “an extraordinarily short shelf life” and a group accused of false speech will never be able to go through the entire process of being accused of a crime and exonerated before the election is over. More than 500 false statement claims have been brought under the Ohio law between 2001 and 2010, Murphy told the justices. Only five cases have been referred to a prosecutor, and of those, three resulted in plea agreements. “So you have a system that goes on and on, year after year, where arguably there’s a great chilling of core First Amendment speech, and yet you’re saying that basically you can’t get into federal court,” Justice Samuel Alito said. Other states with similar laws include Alaska, Colorado, Florida, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The case is Susan B. Anthony List v. Driehaus, 13193. A ruling is expected by late June. �Wednesday, April 23, 2014 www.mydailysentinel.com Page 3 The Daily Sentinel WVa chemical safe level based on two weeks exposure is available on long-term implications. For four to 10 days, starting Jan. 9, 300,000 people in nine counties faced a tap-water ban until the regional water plant and various hydrants met the CDC’s mark. Only 11 people’s homes were tested, all more than a month after the spill. In tests late last month, chemical traces well below the safe level were leaching off the water plant’s filters and flowing to people’s home taps. West Virginia American Water started changing the first of its contaminated filters April 1, but the full slate of 16 might not be replaced until late May. Small chemical levels will keep entering the water system until then, researchers say. The longer someone is exposed to a chemical, the lower the safe level should be, local health officials like Dr. Rahul Gupta of Kanawha-Charleston Health Department have argued. CDC spokeswoman Bernadette Burden said there’s no reason to believe anyone will have adverse health effects from trace chemicals in their taps, including at previous lab detection limits that were 100 times lower than the safe drinking mark. Comparatively, the chemical AP Photo Representatives from at least a dozen local government agencies gathered in the Kanawha County Courthouse in Charleston, W.Va., on April 16 to receive more information on how to be reimbursed for costs related to the Jan. 9 chemical spill and water contamination. found leaving the water plant last month was 2,000 times lower than the safe standard. Gupta said there is evidence, and the CDC already has it. Chemical levels at the water plant dipped to 250 times lower than the safe mark six days after the spill, and two days after some people flushed their homes. The following three days, 134 people went to the emergency room and seven people were hos- pitalized with associated symptoms — rashes, diarrhea, vomiting, skin and eye irritation, headaches and nausea. More than 50 went to Kanawha and Putnam health providers. The CDC has the reports detailing more than 533 ER visits and 26 people hospitalized in the two weeks following the spill. But the agency hasn’t offered review and guidance yet. Gupta said the impact was much larger, estimating about 92,500 felt some ‘Stop talking and start acting’ KIEV, Ukraine (AP) — U.S. Vice President Joe Biden warned Russia on Tuesday that “it’s time to stop talking and start acting” to reduce tension in Ukraine, offering a show of support for the besieged nation as an international agreement aimed at stemming its ongoing crisis appeared in doubt. Standing alongside acting Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Biden called on Moscow to encourage pro-Russia separatists in eastern Ukraine to vacate government buildings and checkpoints, accept amnesty and “address their grievances politically.” Biden said Russia needs to act “without delay,” adding, “We will not allow this to become an open-ended process.” Yatsenyuk was harsher in his characterization of Russia. “No country should be able to behave like an armed bandit,” he said. “Russia should stick to its international commitments and obligations. They should not behave as gangsters in the modern century.” The U.S. has warned that it will quickly order new economic sanctions on Russian officials and entities if Moscow doesn’t follow through on the provisions in last week’s accord. Moscow has rejected charges that it was behind the troubles in eastern Ukraine and that it has failed to live up to the Geneva agreement. Officials there have decried “ultimatums” from the West. “Before putting forth ultimatums to us, demanding fulfillment of something within twothree days or otherwise be threatened with sanctions, we would urgently call on our American partners to fully recognize responsibility for those whom they brought to power and whom they are trying to shield, closing their eyes to the outrages created by this regime and by the fighters on whom this regime leans,” Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said. Biden also announced the United States will provide an additional $50 million to help Ukraine’s beleaguered government with political and economic reforms. The money includes $11 million to help conduct the May 25 presidential election, including voter education, administration and oversight. It also will help fund expert teams from U.S. government agencies to help Ukraine to reduce its reliance on energy supplies from Russia. Other technical advisers will help fight corruption. The White House also announced $8 million in nonlethal military assistance for the Ukrainian armed forces, including bomb-disposal equipment, communications gear and vehicles. In the most high-level visit of a U.S. official since the crisis erupted, Biden met privately with Yatsenyuk and acting Ukrainian President Olek- sandr Turchynov. He also met with democracy activists and spoke to TV cameras to tell the people of eastern Ukraine he had urged the nation’s leaders to keep reaching out to them. “I know the men and women who hide behind masks and unmarked uniforms, they do not speak for you,” he said. “All are welcome as equals in shaping a new Ukraine. We count on you to be the voice for rights and freedoms.” Biden paid tribute to the protest movement by visiting St. Michael’s Golden-Domed Monastery, perched on a hill a few blocks from Kiev’s Independence Square that was the site of massive demonstrations against then-President Viktor Yanukovych. The monks provided refuge to protesters fleeing riot police and served as a field hospital to treat demonstrators who were shot in the square. Some died from their wounds beneath the monastery’s high, blue bell tower. “These heroes remind us of the true cost of a better future and the nobility of those who reach for it,” Biden said. Earlier, he told leaders from various political parties that he brings a message of support from President Barack Obama as they face a historic opportunity to usher in reforms. “The opportunity to generate a united Ukraine, getting it right, is within your grasp,” Biden said. “And we want to be your partner, your friend in the project. And we’re ready to assist.” Biden spoke to nine Ukrainians in a hearing room with gilded moldings at the parliament, or Rada, as the media looked on. The group included three candidates running for president in the May 25 election — most notably billionaire chocolate magnate and front-runner Petro Poroshenko. Biden told the candidates he hopes that they have more luck than he did in two presidential runs. Sen. John McCain, who recently visited the region, described U.S. allies in Eastern Europe as “extremely nervous” about the intentions of Russian President Vladimir Putin. In an MSNBC interview, the Arizona Republican called on Obama to give the Ukrainian government “some weapons to defend themselves.” McCain, the ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, said America must show more support for countries under siege. That doesn’t mean the United States “must fight” every war, he said, but “the only thing that Putin understands is a strong, viable alliance.” Biden’s visit comes at a critical time, days after a tenuous international agreement was reached to de-escalate violence in eastern Ukraine, where pro-Russia insurgents oppose the government in Kiev. He told the lawmakers a priority for the U.S. is to help them become independent from Russian energy supplies. Medals From Page 1 Roberts served from May 1964 to July 1974 with the Assault Helicopter Company. He flew Hueys and Cobra gunships during Vietnam, where he served two tours. He also said he was wounded four times during his two tours. Roberts earned the following medals during his 10-year military career: Distinguished Flying Cross with two bronze oak leaf clusters; Bronze star with a bronze oak leaf cluster; Purple Heart with two bronze oak leaf clusters; Air Medal; Army Commendation Medal with bronze oak leaf cluster; Good Conduct Medal; National Defense Service Medal; Vietnam Service Medal; Silver Star; Combat Infantry Badge; Republic of Vietnam health impacts from the spill and only 40 percent went to a doctor. A statefunded research group, nicknamed WV TAP, came up with a similar number, 108,800. “I hope the CDC would take another look at the data and the facts on the ground,” said Gupta, a proponent of monitoring the population’s long-term health. Research by WV TAP also calls the CDC’s standard into question. The group created a standard that was eight times more cautious about contact with the main spilled chemical. The scientists assumed 28 days of exposure, accounting for skin contact and breathing in the licorice-smelling material, in addition to consuming it in water, which was the CDC’s sole focus. The CDC says it doesn’t know how WV TAP conducted its study, and would evaluate it when methodology is publicly available. Court: Ohio man must pay $489,000 for false call CINCINNATI (AP) — An Ohio man who was 19 when he made a false distress call that triggered a massive, 21-hour search on Lake Erie must pay $489,000 in restitution to the U.S. and Canadian agencies involved in the needless rescue effort, a federal appeals court ruled Tuesday. In a 2-1 ruling, the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati found that a lower court properly ordered 21-year-old Danik Kumar of Sandusky to pay for all costs associated with the March 2012 search, launched after he reported seeing a fishing boat with four people on board sending up flares on Lake Erie as he was flying a small plane overhead. About 70 personnel from the U.S. Coast Guard and the Canadian Coast Guard used three boats, a helicopter and a small plane before calling off the search. A month later, Kumar told investigators that though he originally thought he saw a single flare go up, he never saw a boat, according to court records. Kumar told investigators that he continued reporting a boat in distress for fear of sounding stupid and ruining his chances of becoming a Coast Guard aviator, court records say. After Kumar pleaded guilty to making a false distress call, federal Judge Sara Lioi sentenced him to three months in jail, and ordered him to pay $277,000 to the U.S. Coast Guard and $212,000 to the Canadian Coast Guard. In upholding Lioi’s order, the 6th Circuit majority said that although the ruling is “an onerous burden on the shoulders of a young man,” U.S. law was intended to deal harshly with hoaxes to help deter future ones. In a dissenting opinion, Judge Helene White wrote that the government’s estimated cost of the search was too high and shouldn’t have included indirect costs, such as payroll processing and building maintenance. Kumar’s Cleveland attorney, Edmund Searby, said he’s considering his appeal options. “It’s just a sad story,” he said. “I’m not defending what he did, but it’s an awful large penalty to pay. … He’s never going to recover — on some level — from this.” The government’s prosecutor, Michelle Baeppler, argued that Kumar needed to be held responsible for every cost associated with the search, from the gas used in the boats and aircraft to maintenance and depreciation costs incurred from their use. “His claim that he should only have to pay for a few items … is truly a simplistic and naive notion of the cost involved in conducting a search and rescue operation,” Baeppler wrote. Searby never disputed that Kumar should pay restitution, but argued it shouldn’t be any higher than $118,000. Searby said Kumar had to drop out of Bowling Green State University’s aviation program and is figuring out what to do next. “Danik’s dream has long been to be a pilot, but it’s unclear now whether that dream can be realized,” Searby said. “I’d hate for it to end like this.” REMOUNT EVENT Campaign Ribbon; Sharpshooter Badge with a rifle bar; Marksman Badge with a rifle bar; and the Army Aviator Basic Badge. “I’ve met a lot of veterans and presented a lot of medals,” Johnson said. “I can’t think of one who had a longer list or who has done as much as you did, Joe.” “That’s hard to imagine because it was just a job for me,” Roberts said. “I spent the Vietnam War in the Army. When it was over, I saw no sense in staying.” Johnson said one of the most enjoyable aspects of being a congressman is being able to present longoverdue medals to military veterans. “One of the most special things that I get to do is to set the record straight and make things right, es- pecially where our veterans are concerned,” he said. “We are so humbled and pleased to honor you for your years of service.” Johnson said his office was contacted by Gallia County resident Judy Jones for assistance in acquiring the medals for Roberts. Though the medals were earned over a distinguished period of military service, Roberts never received them. Roberts said he fought for many years to get the medals, but gave up after numerous unsuccessful attempts. “My mind is boggled right now, but I’m happy,” he said. “I mean, I had given up on what I felt I had earned a long time ago. It wasn’t about the medals; it was about doing the job that needed to be done.” One Day Only May 7th Call Today To Schedule Your Appointment D OL (740) 446-3484 NE Visit us at W www.mydailysentinel.com 60499373 CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — When federal officials decided what chemical levels West Virginians could safely consume in water tainted by a January spill, their standard assumed people would be exposed for two weeks, not 100-plus days. Months later, Centers for Disease Control and Protection officials see no reason to adjust a chemical benchmark they quickly created off limited lab rat research. However, a local health official argues the CDC needs to account for ongoing chemical exposure, even if it’s minimal. Until Democratic U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin asked last week, CDC never revealed how long its safety mark assumed everyday contact with chemicalladen water. For months, the CDC said the level accounted for the “shortterm,” but hadn’t conveyed a firm timeframe. Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin told The Associated Press Monday he wasn’t informed what “short-term” meant. Richard Denison, a scientist with the Environmental Defense Fund, cautioned that even a new, more protective long-term standard would have the same flaw: no one knows exactly how much people were exposed to the chemical, and little toxicity data �The Daily Sentinel OPINION Page 4 WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 2014 Social Security goes green America’s heartland has nothing on Earth Day, every day to fear from Stephen Colbert By Marcus Geiger For years, Social Security has been at the forefront of offering convenient, easy-to-use and secure online services.

Marcus Geiger is Social Security district manager in Gallipolis. By Kathleen Parker In selecting Stephen Colbert to replace David Letterman as host of its “Late Show,” CBS has waged war on America’s heartland — or so proclaims that Palm Beach font of heartland mirth, Rush Limbaugh. Don’t you believe it, Heartlanders. Stephen Colbert will replace David Letterman on ‘The Late Show’: Colbert, currently the host of “The Colbert Report” on Comedy Central, will succeed Letterman as soon as the long-running host steps down in 2015. He just signed a five-year deal. But wait, there’s more. CBS also must be waging war on Asian Americans since a Twitter activist who calls herself Angry Asian Woman called for an end to “The Colbert Report” late last month following a joke she didn’t like. Apparently, Colbert, in his pretend role as a loudmouthed, conservative blowhard (keep guessing), made a crack about the “ChingChong Ding-Dong Foundation for Sensitivity to Orientals or Whatever” in response to the new Washington Redskins Original American Foundation created by team owner Dan Snyder, who refuses to change the Redskins name. It was satire, folks. If you have to explain a joke … you may be living in post-humor America. But back to Rush, who elaborated as follows: “What this hire means is a redefinition of what is ‘funny’ and a redefinition of what is comedy, and they’re blowing up the 11:30 format under the guise that the world’s changing and people don’t want the kind of comedy that Carson gave us or even Letterman. “They don’t want that anymore. It’s the media planting a flag here. I think it’s maybe the media’s last stand, but it’s a declaration. There’s no unity in this hire. They’ve hired a partisan so-called comedian to run a comedy show.” Here’s the thing, and I say this with all due respect: Colbert is a comedian whose shtick is to present an exaggerated impression of a conservative talk show host. He’s a character! Sort of like, spoiler alert, Bill O’Reilly. You don’t hear O’Reilly complaining about his role as comic foil. One, he has a sense of humor. Two, it’s good for him. Three, he knows that, when people are paid millions to yak on TV, they don’t get to whine when someone else making millions gets a new gig. I wouldn’t be surprised to see O’Reilly among Colbert’s first guests. To put it plainly, the fellow who will be sitting in the “Late Show” chair is nothing like the character on the “Repor(t),” which is both a delightful and grievous prospect. Many will mourn the exit of Comedy Central’s Colbert, but millions more will celebrate his new role. Having met the real-life Colbert, the lad who grew up in Charleston, S.C., I’m confident viewers will find him every bit the Everyman as was all-time favorite Johnny Carson. That he has made jokes at the expense of nearly everyone is merely further testament to his qualifications. An equal-opportunity offender in a politically correct world: What more can one ask of a comedian?Heartlanders have the best sense of humor of all because they don’t take themselves so seriously. The degree to which one takes oneself seriously is a fairly reliable measure of both breeding and intelligence. Thus, Limbaugh insults his own audience when he suggests that they should be offended. The notion that a fake persona’s comedy routine is a threat to the American heartland bears a striking resemblance to the sort of literal-mindedness that leads to inquisitions and the Taliban. If you can’t take a joke, you could always change the channel. But you’ll miss all the fun. Politicians could learn a thing or two from predecessors By E.J. Dionne History offers a rough kind of justice. As the nation’s current president and three of his predecessors gathered earlier this month at the University of Texas for an LBJ Library conference celebrating the 50th anniversary of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, they confirmed what has been building for many years now: a thoroughly justified revival of Lyndon B. Johnson’s standing. If historians still don’t quite go “All the Way with LBJ,” as his 1964 campaign slogan would have it, they have moved a good part of the way in his direction since he departed the White House in 1969, leaving behind a country torn by the Vietnam War and weary of the conflicts the 1960s unleashed. The Johnson comeback brings with it a new appreciation of the durability of the reforms enacted on his watch. It turns out that there are irreversible social reforms — changes in how we govern ourselves and view our society that future generations come to take for granted and refuse to wipe off the books. It’s impossible to imagine that the Civil Rights Act will ever be repealed. The law itself and the broad political and social movement that came together to pass it permanently altered the nation’s attitudes on race. Racism will never be fully stamped out, but our default position — most visible in the rising generation — is that racial discrimination is both wrong and stupid. At the least, attacks on the civil rights legacy must be indirect and subtle, as in the Supreme Court’s weaken- The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

Similarly, despite all the efforts to contain Medicare’s costs, government-provided health insurance for the elderly is a fact of life. An overriding contest in our politics now is whether the guarantees in the Affordable Care Act will also come to reflect a new normal. The list of other achievements in Johnson’s heyday is well documented in the 2008 book “The Liberal Hour” by Colby College scholars G. Calvin Mackenzie and Robert Weisbrot. Environmental advances along with the establishment of new consumer protections and federal aid to education set the stage for more progress in later years. But the LBJ fixation can be misleading. There is, for example, a devout wish that President Obama had the inclination to match LBJ as the Harry Potter of legislative wizardry. The problem is that Obama could spend hours sharing beer and bourbon with our elected representatives and still not overcome the sharp ideological turn in contemporary conservatism that has moved Republicans toward resolute opposition to nearly everything he does. The GOP wasn’t always like this. Republican help on the 1964 Civil Rights Act was essential because back then, Southern Democrats were among the most implacable conservatives in Congress. The philosophical heirs to those Dixiecrats are now Republicans who play an outsized role in the party. And as the distinguished historian David Garrow makes clear in a review essay on the Purdum and Risen books in The American Pros- Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Letters should be in good taste, addressing issues, not personalities. “Thank You” letters will not be accepted for publication. pect, we often forget how important religious voices and churchbased organizing were in pushing through civil rights. The “values voters” of that era were focused on the struggle for justice, not on battles over culture more recently associated with that label. There is both an opening and a need for such a movement again, focused this time on economic injustice and the injuries of class inequality. The deeper LBJ legacy is of a consensual period when a large and confident majority believed that national action could expand opportunities and alleviate needless suffering. The earthily practical Johnson showed that these were not empty dreams and that finding realistic ways of creating a better world is what Americans are supposed to do.

Larry was born Nov. 28, 1936, in Racine, the son of Hilton Neigler Wolfe Sr. and Ruth Salser Wolfe, who preceded him in death. He was also preceded in death by a brother, Hilton “Big Fooze” Wolfe Jr.; and sisterin-law Leda Mae Kraeutter. Larry “Little Fooze” Wolfe was a 1954 graduate of Racine High School. Larry was a teacher and friend to many students and was married to wife, Dolly Wolfe. Together, they have more than 60 years of teaching experience, most of which came in the Southern Local School District. Wolfe was the principal for many years at the Portland and Syracuse elementary schools, where his teaching staff, students and parents were a community “family.” Wolfe taught both fifth- and sixth-grades in one classroom while also serving as principal at the school. Overall, Wolfe taught more than 32 years. Recently, he was elected to the Southern Local School District Hall of Fame. Wolfe was one of the top ten scorers in Southern basketball history with over 1,000 points, while also enjoying a fantastic baseball career at Racine High School. Known for his crafty left-handed pitching, Wolfe pitched 10 varsity no-hitters. Even after breaking his pitching arm, he pitched and won a game or two throwing righthanded. His junior and senior years, he was voted second- and third-team AllOhio, respectively, in boy’s basketball. After graduating from high school, Wolfe was drafted into the major leagues by the Kansas City Athletics, playing in the minor leagues at Savannah, Ga., and Welsh, W.Va. Wolfe enjoyed success in the minors, not only as a pitcher but as a hitter, but found his heart was really helping people and being close to home. He returned for a time to work at the Sugar Run Feed Mill before going to Rio Grande College to seek a degree in education. He was on the junior varsity basketball team at Rio Grande during the Bevo Francis years. After two years URG, he earned a cadet teaching certificate and began his teaching career at Pomeroy before returning to Racine and Syracuse, where he also was a teacher and principal. He was noted for “making it fun” for the students to learn and treated students fairly. He coached reserve and junior high basketball, was a varsity baseball coach and a varsity girls basketball coach. He coached biddy league basketball at Syracuse www.mydailysentinel.com and Racine, and was also a Scout leader and Little League baseball coach. He was 42-2 as junior high girls basketball coach at Southern. His Meigs Local freshman basketball team won the coveted SEOAL championship in the mid1960s. Larry was a former fireman and member of the Racine Emergency Squad, while serving on Racine Village Council for 16 years. He was also on the Racine Village Water Board and voted Meigs County Jaycees “Man of the Year.” He was a sharecropper at the Jim Adams Farms, where he employed many students to help them with income for school clothing and other necessities. Additionally, he once had one of the state’s largest arrowhead collections, loved to collect arrowheads and continued his love for bluegrass music and auto racing, especially the sprint cars at Eldora Speedway and many local speedways. He has been described as a “great teacher and community leader.” Besides his service to the village, he was on the entertainment committee, Fall Festival committee and helped promote bluegrass music in the area; and for a time was a champion bowler. He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Dolores “Dolly” Kraeuter Wolfe, whom he married Aug. 24, 1960; brother Duane Wolfe, of Racine; aunt Grace Agre, of Morris Plains, N.J.; and sister-inlaw Roberta (Dale) Maidens, of Syracuse, Ohio; son Kent Duane (Kim) Wolfe, of Racine; daughter Laren Mae (Clayton) Shain, of Racine; grandson Wesley (Ashley) Riffle, of Racine; granddaughter Whitney (Dave) Camp, of Racine, and Ryan (Megan) Wolfe, Kort (Morgan) Wolfe, Trevor Wolfe, Tara Wolfe; and great-granddaughter Nevaeh Camp.

Football coach pleads no contest in Ohio rape case STEUBENVILLE, Ohio (AP) — A volunteer football coach whose house was the scene of an underage drinking party that preceded the rape of a girl by two high school football players in 2012 pleaded no contest to two charges on Tuesday, the Ohio attorney general’s office said. Defendant Matt Belardine entered no contest pleas in Jefferson County court to one count of making a false statement and one count of enabling underage drinking. Charges of obstructing official business and contributing to the delinquency of a child were dismissed. Special Judge Patricia Ann Cosgrove sentenced Belardine to 10 days in jail, one year of supervision and 40 hours of community service. She also fined him $1,000. A message left for Belardine’s attorney seeking comment wasn’t immediately returned. Belardine was one of six people charged last year by a grand jury investigating whether other laws were broken in the case of the 16-year-old West Virginia girl who was raped after an alcohol-fueled house party in August 2012. With Belardine’s plea, four of those cases have been resolved. The players were convicted in March 2013 and sentenced to the state’s juvenile detention system. On April 11, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine announced that a teacher and coach charged with a single misdemeanor count of failure to report child abuse or neglect involving the rape will have the charge dismissed in exchange for community service at a domestic violence shelter. AP Photo Matthew Belardine, right, with his attorney, Dennis McNamara, looks on during a hearing in court Tuesday in Steubenville, Ohio. Belardine, a volunteer football coach whose house was the scene of a party that preceded the rape of a girl by two high school football players, pleaded no contest to one count of making a false statement and one count of enabling underage drinking Tuesday in Jefferson County court. Charges of obstructing official business and contributing to the delinquency of a child were dismissed. A pre-trial hearing was scheduled Tuesday afternoon for William Rhinaman, the Steubenville schools’ former technology director, who has pleaded not guilty to charges of evidence tampering, obstructing justice, obstructing official business and perjury. Steubenville superintendent Mike McVey has pleaded not guilty to charges including obstructing justice and tampering with evidence and a misdemeanor charge alleging he made a false statement in April 2012. He has a motion hearing scheduled for May 5. In February, a former school worker pleaded guilty to stealing computer equipment in a case that arose from the grand jury investigation but was not related to the girl’s rape. In January, DeWine announced charges would be dropped against a Steubenville elementary school principal official in exchange for community service related to rape awareness. The principal was accused of failing to report rumors of a teenage sex and drinking party in April 2012 unrelated to the later rape.

The Wahama baseball team moved into a tie with Trimble atop the league standings Monday night following an 11-0 victory over host Belpre in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in Washington County. The visiting White Falcons (9-5, 8-1 TVC Hocking) won their sixth decision in seven outings and also claimed a season sweep of the Golden Eagles (5-7, 5-5), whom they defeated by a 6-0 count in Mason back on March 31. The win — combined with a 4-3 Southern win over Trimble Monday night — allowed WHS to move into a share of the league lead at the midway point of the season. The game was scoreless through two innings of play, but the White Falcons plated three runs in the third for an early edge. Mason Hicks drove in Brent Larck with an RBI single, then Hicks and Kane Roush scored on a double by Wesley Harrison for a 3-0 cushion after three complete. Wahama tacked on a run in the fifth for a 4-0 lead, then sent 11 batters to the plate in the sixth — which resulted in seven runs on seven hits and a walk for a sizable 11-0 cushion. BHS went down in order in its half of the sixth, wrapping up the mercyrule decision. The White Falcons outhit Belpre by an 11-1 overall margin and committed the only error of the game. Wahama left five runners stranded on base, while the hosts left just three on the bags. Hunter Bradley went the distance for the winning decision, allowing just one walk and one hit over six innings while striking out four. Tavian Miller suffered the setback after surrendering eight runs, seven hits and five walks over five frames while fanning five. Wyatt Zuspan led WHS with three hits, followed by Harrison and Larck with two safeties apiece. Roush, Bradley, Garrett Miller and Tyler Grimm also added a hit apiece in the triumph. Harrison drove in a team-best three RBIs, while Bradley and Larck each drove in two. Roush scored a team-high three runs and Larck also came plateward twice. Hostottle had the lone hit for Belpre in the third inning. The Golden Eagles had just four runners reach base safely and only one made it to second base. Bradley also retired the last 11 BHS batters consecutively.

The Lady Eagles came away with championships in four of the 18 events held en route to a runner-up effort of 69 points. Martins Ferry won the girls title with 84 points, while Claymont placed third out of 20 scoring teams with 61 points. Half of Eastern’s crowns came in relay events, with the same quartet of Keri Lawrence, Maddie Rigsby, Taylor Palmer and Laura Pullins bringing home the wins. The foursome posted a winning time of 4:17.00 in the 4x400m relay and won the 4x800m event with a mark of 10:11.11. Rigsby also earned an individual title by winning the high jump with a cleared height of 5 feet, 2 inches. The senior also placed fourth in the 800m run with a time of 2:31.78. Senior Cassidy Cleland — an Ohio University signee — won the discus event with a throw of 118 feet, 8 inches. Katie Keller also placed second in the discus (113-3) and third in the shot put (34-11). Keri Lawrence placed fourth in the 1600m run (5:35.14) and Kelsey Johnson (51.81) was fourth in the 300m hurdles to round out the Lady Eagles’ topfour placements.

Ironmen knock off Gallia Academy, 8-7 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com JACKSON, Ohio — The celebration will have to wait. The Gallia Academy baseball team had hoped to clinch its fourth straight league championship Monday night, but host Jackson spoiled the party while keeping its own Southeastern Ohio Athletic League title hopes alive following an 8-7 victory at Haller Field in Jackson County. The Blue Devils (10-3, 6-1 SEOAL) never led and committed both errors in the contest, as the Ironmen (9-2, 4-1) outhit the guests by a 10-8 overall margin. JHS stormed out to a 5-0 lead through three complete, but Gallia Academy responded with a five-run fourth to knot things up. Jackson countered with a run in the fourth and added two more scores in the fifth to reclaim an 8-5 edge, but GAHS retaliated with two runs in the sixth to pull to within a run at 8-7 through six complete. The Blue Devils started the seventh with a leadoff single from Anthony Sipple, who eventually ad- vanced to third on a wild pitch and a passed ball — putting the tying run 90 feet away with nobody out in the inning. Jackson reliever Austin Leach got Kole Carter on strikes for the first out of the inning, then Leach made a pickoff throw to third base that caught Sipple in a rundown for the second out of the inning. Sipple was headed home on a suicide squeeze attempt by 8-hole hitter Matt Bailey, but the pitch was ultimately never made plateward. Bailey followed by popping out to second base, allowing Jackson to claim the win and also keep its slim title hopes alive. The Ironmen also avenged a 4-1 setback at GAHS back on April 9. Gustin Graham suffered the loss for the Blue Devils after surrendering eight runs (six earned), 10 hits and zero walks over 5.1 innings while striking out five.
