POMEROY — Ever
since his childhood in
Cincinnati, Will Moore
has been fantasizing
about the Ohio River.
“I’ve always had a feeling for Ohio and for the
river,” Moore said.
A native of Ohio,
Moore married a Texas
girl, P.J., after his Army
service and has lived in
Georgetown, Texas, ever
since.
“I promised her when I
dragged her off to world
edges that we’d move to
Texas,” he said.
While Moore, who

owns his own home
restoration business,
enjoys Texas life, he said
he doesn’t always enjoy
working and living in
such sweltering heat.
“We always think,
‘Let’s go up north somewhere,’” Moore said.
And go up north he did
when he decided he
would paddle down river
over a six- to eight-week
period starting July 7
in Morgantown, W.Va.,
along the Monongahela
River, which eventually combines with the
Allegheny River to create the Ohio River.

GALLIA COUNTY LOCAL BRIEFS

GALLIPOLIS — Gallia
County Engineer Brett
Boothe has announced
that Mitchell Road will be
closed between Ohio 588
and Jackson Pike from 8

the month of August as

City to smoke test sewer
GALLIPOLIS — The
City of Gallipolis will
be smoke testing the
sewer system at Hedgewood Drive on Aug. 13
if weather permits. A
“smoke test” survey will
assist the city in identifying defects in the

city’s sewer system. The
smoke residents may
see coming from the
vent stacks on houses
or holes in the ground is
non toxic, non-staining,
has no odor, is white
to gray in color and
creates no fire-hazard.
The smoke should not
enter residents’ homes
unless they have defective plumbing or dried
up drain pipes. It is
advisable for the home
owner to pour a gallon
of water into each drain
trap of floors, sinks,
showers, or tubs prior to
testing. If smoke enters
a home, there is good
reason to assume that
sewer gases may also
be entering homes or

“I just promised if I could
paint, I would never make
money off of it,” she said.
Almost all of Richards’ pieces
were given away to whomever
she felt she should give them
to, including two she sent to
former presidents Carter and
Reagan.
Richards sent Carter a painting of Plains (Ga.) Baptist
Church, which he attended.
She said the painting hung in
his bedroom for 30 years, and
a rock that she painted for Reagan sat on his desk in the White
House.
“I don’t know why I did it. I
just knew I wanted to. I had a
desperate need to do it,” she
said.
Also a writer, Richards selfpublished a total of 10 poetry
volumes, and one poem she
wrote caught the eye of former
First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy.
“I got a letter from Jackie
Kennedy, when I wrote one

for Middleport and Pomeroy,
where he stopped for a day to rest.
“What I’ve seen of Middleport,
it’s a neat little town,” he said. ”
(And) I’ve noticed a lot of towns
along (the Ohio River) are not
growing. In many towns people are
leaving. I see lots of store fronts
closed up. But not in Pomeroy.
This is a thriving town.”
Originally, Moore wanted to
travel about 25 miles a day from
Morgantown to Cairo, Ill., but
because paddling can be physically
exhausting, coupled with a loaded
boat, he cut his daily mileage in
half. He will have his son, who lives
in Atlanta, pick him up in Portsmouth next Friday when he is set
to reach the end of his journey.
“(Paddling) is fun, but it’s more
of a spiritual experience,” he said.
“When I get people that do things
for me … I think, ‘I must be dreaming. I’ll wake up and find out this
isn’t real.’ But these people are
real. It’s an amazing thing.”

send a notarized thing back to

about how she walked with
grace and the little kids. I think
that’s what thrilled me the most,
when I got that letter from her,”
Richards said.
Although Richards no longer
paints or writes, she is an active
member of the senior center’s
Community Council and still
values involvement and the
opportunity to leave a legacy.
“I’ve seen so much change.
You wouldn’t believe it,” Richards said. “I think you should
be very active and think of the
future, not just what you can
do right now. I think a lot here,
since I’ve been here, of the
future. What will it be like for
my children, and grandchildren,
and great-grandchildren and

where she worked for 25 years
before retiring. She began painting in her mid-50s as a hobby,
rarely accepting money for any
of her creations.
“It was a hobby. One I showed
at the French Art Colony, I
got $125 for it. We had to sell
them when we showed them
there,” she said. “There was
one woman who had me paint
her home with a snow scene,
and with a spring scene, and
she gave me $50. She wanted to
give me $100, but I didn’t want
to take it.”
Richards said she only took
a total of five art class sessions
and simply painted because she
wanted to.

which has no restaurants, he said.
The family drove to another town
to bring Moore a sub sandwich.
In Moore’s last story, he was
paddling by a larger boat near New
Eagle, Penn., when a man reached
over the side of the boat with an
ice-cold bottle of water.
“I didn’t even know the guy, but
he had found out I was camping
there, and that’s the kind of thing
I’m running into. People are friendly, but I didn’t expect that. A lot of
what I’m experiencing in paddling
is taking a back seat to hospitality
that I’m experiencing along the
river.”
At one point, Moore said he left
some insignificant items in his
boat overnight in Marietta, and
someone took the items, including
an old hat. Moore, however, was
unphased, and said he didn’t view
the experience as negative.
“Someone needed a hat and I
gave it to them,” he said.
Moore also shared much praise

THEIR VIEW

Fear is greater
threat than Ebola
We understand how the news that two Americans with Ebola being transported to Atlanta
for treatment can be met with fear, but the only
way to overcome a threat like this is with courage and scientific work.
Ebola, like AIDS in the 1980s and a variety of
other diseases and pandemics, is both frightening and deadly. Previous outbreaks of the disease had a 90 percent death rate. This time has
been slightly better, so far, with several media
outlets reporting that 60 percent of the people
who contract the disease die from it.
However, the terrifying part of it isn’t the
death rate; it is how little we know about the
disease. Scientists believe it was transferred to
humans by animals and that humans contract
it from one another through contact with a sick
person’s sweat, blood and other fluids. It doesn’t
appear to be airborne and we do not yet have a
cure or a vaccine.
The disease, so far, has been limited to Africa
and several hundred people have died in Sierra
Leone, Liberia and Guinea since February.
Recently, two American missionaries contracted
the disease while treating patients. Dr. Kent
Brantly has already returned and is being treated by infectious disease specialists in Atlanta.
Nancy Writebol is the other.
Both of them were there because of their
Christian faith and a belief that they were called
to serve others in God’s name.
Dr. Tom Frieden, the director of the CDC in
Atlanta said in an interview that Brantly seems
to be improving and that officials hoped that
would continue.
It is believed that both patients will have a
better chance of surviving if they are treated
in a modern facility. Frieden and other medical officials have done their best to reassure a
nervous public that every care is being taken to
prevent Ebola from spreading inside the United
States. He added that even if an outbreak were
to occur, the CDC knows how to stop it.
We also expect that specialists treating Brantly and Writebol are also working on a cure.
Meanwhile, the CDC is taking what reasonable measures it can to prevent the disease from
spreading. The agency is sending 50 workers to
Africa to help set up screenings to prevent sick
people from flying out of the country. Those
workers will also assist officials on the ground
with education efforts designed to prevent the
spread of Ebola.
Those are the kind of level-headed initiatives that don’t get enough discussion. Unfortunately, discussions about Ebola and other
topics like terrorism or crime seem to center
on the worst-case scenarios instead of the
facts on the ground.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Holdren no longer

Dear editor,
I would like to
express my gratitude
to the public for having the opportunity to
serve Gallia County as
an assistant prosecutor

During these years, the
child support staff and
I were able to make a
positive impact on our
county.
Regretfully, as of Aug.
4, I am no longer serv-

ing you as an assistant

reasons have ensured
my removal from the
Prosecuting Attorney’s
office; however, I would
appreciate any opportunity presented in the
future, both in the private and public sector,
to serve the people of
Gallia County.
Thank you again for
your continuing support

growing capacities.

THEIR VIEW

A flood of procrastination … until it’s gone

By Daris Howard

I was just leaving my office at
the university when the hail hit. It
was the size of marbles and it really
hurt.
I raced for my van. Once inside,
the hail fell so hard I thought it was
going to break the windows. It did
leave some small dents in the roof.
As I started on my way, the hail
changed to rain that came down
as if someone was pouring a giant
bucket of water out of the sky.
Before I had gone a half mile, the
water was so deep in the streets
it was nearly up to the door of my
van. Yet, only a couple of miles
further, there was not a drop of rain
at all. The storm dropped a couple
of inches of rain in only an hour or
two, but its path was only about
three miles wide.
The university town where I
work was probably hit the hardest.
Water running down the hill flowed
into campus buildings, apartments,
and houses all over town. When
the rain stopped, everyone moved
quickly to help each other.
The next day, class work was
nearly impossible as everyone had
a tale to tell. David said his apartment was on a second floor and
untouched, so he set out to help
others. He organized a group of
boys who went to apartments that
had basement stairwells. He would
yell to the apartment tenants,
“Don’t open your door until we
bucket out the stairwell.”
At the first two apartments, the
tenants opened their doors and

asked, “What?” The water then
flooded in. After that, he would
wade waste deep into the sewagefilled water and hold the doorknob
until the occupants of the apartment understood his request. Then
he and the other boys would work
quickly to empty the stairwell.
Many good deeds were performed
and the damage was far less than it
could have been.
But Tanya didn’t have a happy
story to tell. In fact, she was the
opposite of happy.
“I had been driving into Rexburg
when the storm hit,” she said.
“The water came so fast that my
car started to stutter and to stall.
I hoped I could keep it running
until I made it up the hill to my
apartment. When I came to the
roundabout, I had to stop; not for
another car, but for an idiot who
was paddling a kayak around and
around it, and wasn’t even signaling.”
“I don’t think kayaks have signals,” I replied.
“Well, I just about ran over the
moron,” she said. “And when I
finally got past the roundabout
and headed up the hill, here came
a whole gang of stupid people sailing down the flooded street on
inner tubes. I tried to dodge them,
and finally stopped, but they were
totally out of control and banged
into my car and everything. Then I
couldn’t get my car going again and
had to leave it until later.”
When she finished, John raised
his hand. When I called on him, he

was all smiles. “Well,” he said, “I
think that the flood was an answer
to my prayers.”
“It has been awful dry,” I
answered, “and we definitely
needed rain, but I wouldn’t say we
needed that much rain.”
“Oh, I wasn’t thinking about that
at all,” he replied. “I hadn’t had
time to study for your test, and I
was sure I would fail it. But since it
was closing last night, I had to take
it anyway. I was in line at the testing center waiting to get in when
the water started swirling around
my ankles. The test center people
yelled for everyone to leave, saying
our teachers would have to make
allowances for us. And now that
you have had to open the test for
a couple more days, I have time to
study.”
Two days later, after the test had
closed, we met again for class. I
asked, “So, John, did you ace the
test with the two extra days to
study?”
John rolled his eyes. “No. God
answered my prayer for more time
to study by flooding the whole
campus, and I still failed. But I
learned something even more
important.”
“What?” I asked.
“I learned that no matter how
much time I have, I will always
find ways to procrastinate until it’s
gone.”

Doe No. 2, for life. The victims
were reportedly 10 years old and
11 years old, respectively, at the
time of the abuse.
Following sentencing, Gallia
County Assistant Prosecuting
Attorney Britt Wiseman, who
handled the prosecution of this
case and was present during
the plea and sentencing hearing last week, stated that if not
for the vigilance of teachers
who observed the two victims
following the period of abuse,
the defendant might have gone
unpunished.
“This entire case began with
teachers at Rio Grande Elementary who noticed changes in the
girls’ behavior and appearance.
These teachers took the time to
develop relationships with their
students, which allowed these
students to feel comfortable and
safe enough around these teachers to disclose the sexual abuse
they were experiencing at home,”
Wiseman said. “These teachers
and all teachers in Gallia County
are to be commended for the
work they do every day in looking after and protecting children
in our community.”
An indictment in this case
was initially filed April 10 following an investigation into this
case. The indictment outlines
two counts of rape, two counts
of sexual battery, four counts of
gross sexual imposition and two
counts of disseminating matter

Later on Thursday evening, deputies reportedly

made through a window.
Deputies later collected evidence at the home,

that were filed following the continued abuse of Jane Doe No. 1
and No. 2 between Sept. 1, 2013,
and March 26, 2014, according to
the indictment.
Wiseman also reported that
the continued actions of the suspect over the course of several
months, as well as the young age
of the victims, played a definite
role in the life sentence handed
down by the court in this case.
“Our office makes prosecution
of child sex crimes a top priority,” Wiseman said. “We insisted
on, and this defendant received,
the maximum sentence permissible by Ohio law in receiving a
life sentence in prison plus an
additional three years. Further,
this defendant is labeled as the
highest level sex offender for the
rest of his life. This defendant’s
actions, coupled with the ages
of the victims in this case, warranted the life sentence imposed
by the court.”
Fellow Gallia County Assistant
Prosecuting Attorney Eric Mulford pointed to Sparkman’s prior
record as the defendant previously served time in the Ohio
Department of Rehabilitation and
Correction for a similar charge,
and soon after his release from
prison in 2013, began to prey on
the two victims in this case.
“This defendant is a repeat
sexual offender based on a prior
conviction in Meigs County in
2009 for gross sexual imposition
in which this defendant served
four years in prison. This defendant was released from prison in
January 2013. The dates of sexual

abuse involving these young girls
began in September 2013. This
defendant has shown that he cannot and should not remain out in
the community and that the maximum prison term of life imprisonment is necessary to protect the
public,” Mulford said.
Gallia County Prosecutor Jeff
Adkins thanked the various agencies involved in this case, as their
efforts aided the prosecution
and helped to put together such
a strong case against the defendant.
“These types of cases take
cooperation and input from
various agencies and law enforcement personnel. We would like to
thank our staff at the prosecutor’s
office, the Gallia County Sheriff ’s
Office, the Bureau of Criminal
Identification and Investigation
(Ohio BCI), Child Protection
Center in Chillicothe, Gallia
County Children’s Services, and
school officials and teachers with
the Gallipolis City Schools,”
Adkins stated. “These agencies
were instrumental in putting
together a strong case for prosecution of this defendant and protecting these girls from further
abuse.”
Following Wednesday’s hearing, Sparkman was remanded to
the custody of the Gallia County
Sheriff and will be transported
to the appropriate state prison
facility.
He was given credit for 127
days served and will be subject
to a mandatory period of five
years of supervision by the Adult
Parole Authority following his
release from prison.

in relation to Thursday
afternoon’s incident.
Additional charges of the
possession of criminal
tools and theft may be
filed once the case is
reviewed by the Gallia
County Prosecutor’s
Office.
Browning further
thanked those mem-

bers of the community
who were observant on
Thursday afternoon,
commenting on how
helpful it is to have
citizens call and report
suspicious activity to the
sheriff’s office.
Further information on
this case will be released

POINT PLEASANT — An infrastructure improvement project for
Mason County 12 years in the making was dedicated Thursday.
The Mason County Public Service District’s sewage upgrades and
expansion in the Lakin and Camp
Conley areas isn’t just good news
for Lakin and Camp Conley, but for
the economic development of Mason
County and surrounding counties,
according to those in attendance
at Thursday’s ribbon cutting at the
wastewater facility just north of Point
Pleasant.
Because of the $7.5 million project, the Lakin Correctional Center
for Women has been able to expand,
allowing it to house an additional
69 inmates and create nine new staff
positions.
Warden Lori Nohe spoke at the
dedication ceremony, saying the
prison currently employs around 172
people from not only Mason County
but surrounding areas, making the
addition of new jobs important to
the tri-county area. She added that
the prison was currently at capacity
and the fastest growing segment of
the prison population is women. If
the need arises, the new wastewater treatment facility will allow the
prison to expand even further in the
future to accommodate more inmates
if needed.
Randy Grinstead, of the Mason
County PSD, told those gathered at
the dedication that the upgrades have
resulted in the system being able to

Marshall hosts
education
forum Monday
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — Marshall
University on Monday will host a
forum, “Creating a New Vision for Public Education in West Virginia.” The
program will begin at 11 a.m. at Foundation Hall and is expected to conclude
by 2 p.m.
The forum was organized by Charleston attorney Charles R. McElwee, who
has been researching and writing about
the public school system for a number
of years.
Marshall President Stephen J. Kopp
will welcome participants and give
opening remarks.
Many education and community leaders are expected to participate in the
forum, including Dr. Teresa Eagle, dean
of Marshall’s College of Education and
Professional Development.
“Public education is often the target for criticism from many sources,”
Eagle said. “We need to examine
the strengths and weaknesses of our
existing system so we can continually
improve on the experiences we offer
our children in schools. Marshall is a
key stakeholder in this process and we
are pleased to continue to take a leadership role in this dialogue through events
like the one on Monday.
“Our children deserve the very best
teachers and administrators we can produce, and to make sure they have the
best, we must examine all aspects of the
educational system and have an open
and honest discussion about our challenges and opportunities.”

“I hope the economic benefits will soon be felt.”
— Randy Grinstead
Mason County PSD

nies for Thursday’s dedication was Mason County
Commission President
Rick Handley. Also making remarks, along with
Handley, Grinstead, Nohe
and Elliot, were Economic
Development Director
Charles Humphreys, representatives from U.S. Con-

gressman Nick J. Rahall’s
office and U.S. Sen. Jay
Rockefeller’s office, the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and Dorsel Keefer,
of the Mason County PSD
Board of Directors.
Attending the ribbon
cutting were PSD employees and board of directors,

Mason County Commissioners, Lakin Correctional Center representatives,
personnel from local and
state economic development offices, Mid-Atlantic
Construction personnel,
engineering personnel,
local business leaders and
many others.

How will panel pick top teams?
By Ralph D. Russo
Associated Press

AP Photo | The Dominion Post | Jason DeProspero

In this Dec. 16, 2010, file photo, West Virginia University athletic
director Oliver Luck speaks addresses the media during a news
conference in Morgantown, W.Va. As the playoff era begins, 13
people will be in charge of choosing the best four teams in the
country to play in the first national semifinals.

Might as well call it Mission:
Impossible.
Starting in mid-October, a panel
of 13 football experts will begin
meeting once a week to determine
the four teams who will compete
for the national championship
in the very first College Football
Playoff. Their goal is to choose the
four best teams in the nation at
the end of the regular season.
But how does someone answer
a question for which there will
almost always will be more than
one correct answer?
“We need both faith and reason,”
said committee member and West
Virginia athletic director Oliver

Luck. “We have to use our logical
skills and the deductive skills that
the people in that room have. But
the college football world needs a
little bit of faith that we all check
our pasts at the door and we go
about this in a very straightforward and honest manner.”
Where the College Football Playoff has the Bowl Championship
Series beat is simply the number
four. Twice as many teams will
now enter the postseason with a
chance to win the national championship. Most fans agree this is
progress over an old system were
deserving teams were left out.
How will the new panel decide
on top teams? Will so-called great
teams still be left out? As its first

season unfolds, the group could
create an all-new set of questions
about whether the process works.
THE HUMAN ELEMENT
The biggest change in the process is that people — not computer rankings — are solely in charge
of teams’ fates. So the panel will
have to learn how to effectively
debate, compromise and even
account for bias.
“This small number of human
beings sitting across the table from
each other can evaluate nuances to
a much greater degree than the old
system could,” said Bill Hancock,
the executive director of the College Football Playoff. “There can
be give and take. There can be

Take another
look at
groundhogs
By Jim Freeman
In The Open

This weekend we are
going to look at the
lowly groundhog, or
marmota monax.
It is a creature of
many names, groundhog, whistle pig, pig,
woodchuck, or just
chuck, but it is most
commonly called a
groundhog.
The groundhog is
a relatively large (by
rodent standards)
animal weighing about
four to nine pounds.
They are generally a
dark brown or grizzled
color with a short,
darker brown or almost
black tail.
They hibernate usually from around October
to March, but depending on the weather
and availability of food
may be active later or
earlier. They reproduce
shortly after emerging
from hibernation and
have young around May
or early June. I call the
young ones “chucklets.”
While most wild animals in our part of the
country are nocturnal,
or crepuscular (active
around dawn and
dusk), groundhogs are
strictly diurnal, preferring to hide out in their
burrows when predators are most active.
The groundhog is the
only animal I know that
has its own quasi-holiday, Groundhog Day,
which is observed every
year on Feb. 2. On that

day the big rodents
supposedly come out
of their hole and if they
see their shadow it
means six more weeks
or winter. If they don’t
see their shadow it
means an early spring.
In any event, spring
usually follows about
six weeks later. The
most famous of these
animal prognosticators
is Punxsutawny Phil,
from Pennsylvania, but
there are other, lesser
known ones, including
Buckeye Chuck.
Groundhogs are
powerful diggers and
live in burrows of their
own making, and their
abandoned burrows
often provide homes
for other small animals.
I also imagine over
the course of millennia that groundhogs
literally “turn over” the
landscape through their
burrowing, bringing
subsoil to the surface
to become topsoil,
and leaving nutrients
behind in the subsoil.
That sort of makes
them nature’s rototiller.
Groundhogs are a
species that has adapted well to human activity. Despite the name
“woodchuck,” they are
not animals of the deep
woods, and were not
commonly found in
pre-settlement Ohio.
To observe first-hand
just how comfortable
they are living close to
humans, just drive

Friday, Aug. 8, in Akron, Ohio. James is being welcomed back Friday night by the city where he first bounced a basketball. James grew up
in Akron and has maintained a strong connection with his hometown.

LeBron: “I love you. I’m back.”
AKRON, Ohio (AP) —
On a night packed with
emotion and inspiration,
LeBron James saved the
biggest moment for last.
Surrounded by family,
friends and fans in a city
welcoming him home,
James delivered a line
he’s been waiting to say
for four years.
“I love you,” he told
the crowd of nearly
25,000. “I’m back.”
James then dropped
the microphone and left
the stage as fireworks
exploded about InfoCision Stadium, illuminating the Akron sky.
James is home, and
he’s not leaving again.
The NBA superstar,
who re-signed with
Cleveland last month,
said Friday night he
intends to play the rest
of his career with the
Cavaliers, the team he
returned to after winning
two NBA titles in Miami.
When he signed a twoyear, $41 million contract
that included an option
after one year, there was
speculation he would
one day test free agency
again. The contract made
Cleveland fans nervous,
but they can now relax.
“I don’t plan on going
nowhere,” James said. “I
don’t have the energy to
do it again.”
James, who returned
to Northeast Ohio after
four seasons with the

Heat, was welcomed
back with a homecoming
event fit for a King.
Fans waited in line
for six hours for a prime
seat for the event on
the University of Akron
campus, not far from
where the 29-year-old
James bounced his first
basketball.
There were tributes
during the two-hour
ceremony, highlighted by
recording artist Skylar
Grey signing her hit “I’m
Coming Home,” a song
that became the unofficial theme of his return
to Cleveland.
“It’s almost like she
knew I was coming home
before I knew I was coming home,” he said.
James was back and
the city that helped raise
him welcomed him with
open arms. The welcome-home party coincided with James’ annual
“I Promise” campaign for
area children sponsored
by his family foundation.
“It’s pretty amazing,”
said James, joined at his
news conference by several kids. “I’m not gonna
sit up here and say it’s
not. To know you can do
things for people, give
them hope, give them
inspiration. It means a
lot to me. I understand
I’m a role model. I understand to these kids I’m
more than a role model.
I’m a superhero to them.

I’m a father to them. I’m
a brother to them, whatever the case they want
me to be on that particular day.”
Although he was playing for the Heat, James
said his heart was always
home and he realized it
was time to return.
“It just hit me,” he
said. “Sometimes you
just have a feeling. You
realize what’s going on
and what’s happening. It
just hit me.”
During a 15-minute
interview session — his
first since announcing
his return to Ohio —
James touched on a number of subjects, including
new Cleveland coach
David Blatt, the possible
addition of All-Star forward Kevin Love, who
is expected to join the
Cavs in a trade from Minnesota later this month,
and winning Cleveland’s
first championship since
1964 .
James won an Olympic
gold medal with Love at
the London Games in
2012 and he’s eager to be
his teammate again.
“I’m going to be very
excited to have him,”
James said. “I don’t
really care about the
26 (points) and 12
(rebounds). I care about
the basketball IQ. His
basketball IQ is very,
very high. I had an
opportunity to spend

32 days with him on
the 2012 Olympic team.
It’s funny. I always told
Kevin Love, ‘You’re very
good, man.’ He always
thought I was blowing
smoke.
“I always told him he
was going to be a reason
why we won the gold
medal, and he played a
huge role for us. So I’m
looking forward to it.
He’s a great piece.”
As for Blatt, the former
Maccabi Tel Aviv coach
hired by Cleveland in
June, James did some
research on his offense
and likes what he’s seen.
“I watched all his clips
form him coaching Maccabi and I kind of broke
them down to see how I
fit and obviously I can fit
in every position on the
floor,” he said.
James is looking forward to playing with
Love and All-Star point
guard Kyrie Irving,
neither of whom have
played in an NBA playoff
game. James knows what
it takes to win a title,
and he’s going to have to
lead the way for a team
lacking postseason experience.
“I’m going to have to
teach, lead and inspire
those guys,” he said.
“But my No. 1 goal is to
win the championship
here. I think it would be

Dave Bartoo, a data
analyst, consultant
and founder of www.
cfbmatrix.com , said he
anticipates the selection committee will rank
teams similarly to other
poll panels. Traditionally,
college football poll voters
tend to create tiers based
on the number of loses
and wins and adjust the
teams within those tiers,
making some alterations
to account for perceived
schedule strength.
“I feel that’s what
should happen because
they (the committee)
don’t have enough infor-

Sunday Times-Sentinel

mation to do any better
than the people who have
been doing it,” Bartoo
said.
STRENGTH OF
SCHEDULE
The committee has
been instructed to place
an emphasis on strength
of schedule, head-to-head
matchups and conference
championships.
Strength of schedule
has become a particular
buzz phrase this offseason, with coaches and
conferences already touting the virtues of their
lineup.
Bartoo said it’s misguided to emphasize strength
of schedule because calculating it accurately is not
possible, no matter how
it’s done.
“A lot of people want
to believe that strength
of schedule is a valid stat
for separating teams,”

he said. “It’s not the best
one or the worst one.
They are all about a coin
flip.”
There are not enough
data points in college football to make a good sample size to study strength
of schedule because teams
play so few games and
the best teams rarely play
each other, Bartoo said.
ANALYZING THE
DATA
The committee will
have a virtual bank vault
full of data at their fingertips, provided by a company called SportsSource
Analytics, to help them
judge teams.
Bartoo is concerned
about information overload and the committee
using numbers that have
not been properly vetted.
“Who is helping with
oversight on that?” he
said. “Can the playoff

for that?’”
The BCS taught college
football fans there is no
perfect way of picking the
best teams. That won’t
change with the College
Football Playoff.
“They will do the best
they can and I’m confident they’ll pick the best
four teams,” Hancock
said. “Some other group

but our group will spend

said the red-head, who was counting down the minutes before the
gates opened.
Price packed up a car of six people and drove to Ohio for the first
time so she could help welcome
back the four-time league MVP.
She said James’ poignant essay
that he was returning home to try
and end Cleveland’s 50-year championship drought touched her.
“It all makes sense,” she said,
wearing a “Return Of The King”
T-shirt. “He made a promise and
he’s going to stick to it.”

Blue Devils 3rd in SEOAL opener
Miller tops Tornadoes

RAVENSWOOD, W.Va. — It was
worth the trip.
The Miller golf team earned a TriValley Conference Hocking Division
tri-match victory over Eastern and
host Southern Thursday at Green
Hills Country Club in Jackson County.
The match was contested under the
play six, count four format.
The Falcons were led by co-medalists Shawn Hayes and Chris Gamble,
who each fired seven-over par rounds
of 43. A 48 by Austin Doughty and a

51 by Taylor Newman rounded out the
Miller total of 185. Scotty Duffy (55)
and Collin Pargeon (63) also played
for MHS but didn’t count toward the
team total.
The Tornadoes were second on the
day and were led by Jacob Hoback
with a 46. Jonah Hoback added a 52,
Tanner Roush marked a 56, while the
team total of 211 was capped off by
Tanner Thorla with a 57. Eli Hunter
fired a 61 but did not count toward
the team total.
The Eagles were led by Zach ConSee MILLER | B4

BELPRE, Ohio — A tough start to a
new year.
The Gallia Academy golf team struggled to a third place finish Thursday
during the opening match of the 2014
Southeastern Ohio Athletic League
schedule at Oxbow Country Club in
Washington County.
The Blue Devils posted a team score
of 159, which was only three shots
ahead of last place Jackson (162) in

choices include the .17

and the ever-popular .22

With the .22 Long Rifle
you’ll want to make sure

six golfers post sub-40 rounds, which
also included a pair of co-medalist

Dares Hamid paced GAHS with a 36,
followed by Zach Graham with a 39 and

You can eat them, but
to me they have a gamey
taste. Why this is the case
I don’t know, because
groundhogs only eat the
best stuff, clover, alfalfa,
etc. They should be delicious, but they still have
this wild taste to them. If
you plan on eating them
I would suggest waiting
a few months until the
young ones have grown
a bit and the adults have
fattened back up from
their winter nap.

However, I have heard
from several hunters that
they haven’t seen the
number of groundhogs
out in the country that
they used to see in the
past, presumably due
to pressure by coyotes.
I tend to agree with
this assessment, but it
remains to be seen if
this is a long-term issue
or something that will
eventually reach some
equilibrium.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Marvin Lewis only
needed to see a few plays from Andy Dalton to feel
good about his starting quarterback — and the
new contract that will keep him in Cincinnati for a
while.
Dalton was sharp in the Bengals’ preseason
opener Thursday night, hitting A.J. Green on a
deep pass to set up the game’s opening field goal.
And while he watched the rest of the night as the
Kansas City Chiefs rallied for a 41-39 victory, the
short stint left an impression.
“I liked the crispness of the first units,” Lewis
said. “Andy looked good.”
As for the rest of the show?
“You can’t have the sort of explosive plays we
gave up,” Lewis said.
Sean Smith and Malcolm Bronson returned
interceptions for scores, and De’Anthony Thomas
brought back a punt 80 yards for another touchdown. Kansas City added two more offensive
scores and a couple of field goals before holding on
in the waning seconds for the win.
Dalton, whose six-year deal could keep him with
Cincinnati through the 2020 season, said he knew
that there would be a lot of attention on him given
the news of the week.
“So it felt good to get out there and have things
go pretty well, even though it was brief,” he said.
“We hit a couple passes to A.J. but of course we
would have liked to have finished it off with a
touchdown instead of a field goal.”

Bend Area

Ribbon cutting for new
school track is included
By Mindy Kearns

For the Sunday Times-Sentinel

NEW HAVEN — The town of New Haven
and New Haven Elementary School will combine their efforts Aug. 12 to co-host a huge
back-to-school event.
The town will host its annual Back-to-School
Bash, while NHES will host a Family Fun Night
that will include a ribbon-cutting ceremony for
the school’s new walking/running track. Both
events will take place at the school from 6 to 8
p.m.
According to NHES Principal Stacy Bissell,
the track ribbon cutting will be at 6 p.m. The
track will be used by the school during the
day, but will be open for community use in the
evenings.
Bissell said the track was built with $18,000
in grant funds supplied by the Robert and Louise Claflin Foundation. The award is the largest
single grant amount to date by the foundation.
Stephen Littlepage, foundation president, will
attend the ceremony to present the school with
a plaque.
In addition, Bissell stated there will be inflatables from Meigs Inflatables for the children
to play on. A “meet and greet” will provide
students and parents an opportunity to meet
teachers for the upcoming year, and registration will be held for incoming students who
have not already registered.
The town of New Haven’s bash will include
dance music, provided by Juddy and Bernita
Allen, according to town Recorder Roberta
Hysell. She said drawings will be held for backpacks filled with school supplies.
The Mason County Anti-Drug Coalition will
also be giving out backpacks filled with information on drug abuse and bullying, according
to Diana Riddle, director of the Mason County
Health Department. Games, including a ring
toss, ball game and water gun game, will be
held by the health department, and representatives from there will also be passing out pencils, stickers and bubbles. The health department will be providing snacks of punch, apples
and popsicles.

A summer photography program in Meigs County, sponsored by the Meigs County Family and Children First Council, Woodland Centers,
Hopewell Health Centers and Meigs Juvenile Court, was deemed successful by representatives of the sponsoring agencies. The program
was attended by eight teens whom the agencies felt would benefit from the art therapy. Pictured is one of the photos taken by the teens.

considering continuing meeting

something that will take place
again next summer with a new

Pictured are members of the Gallia Academy High School Class of 1954, which
celebrated their 60th reunion the weekend of July 4-5. In the first row, from left, are
Daphne Sanders Phillips, Shirley Williams Hoffman, Barbara Angel Chambers, Mary
Joann Betz Russell, Ina Belle Barcus Sibley, Barbara Johnson Huber, Midge Clagg
Evans, Anne Murray Picciola, Phyllis Gothard Stewart; Second row, Larry Radeker, John
“Bud” Preston, Richard Sisson, Wanda Folden Newport, Marilyn Lloyd Donaldson, June
Carroll Hackworth, Jean Allison Gillespie, Joann Barry Johnson, Margaret Kingery HallSmith; third row, Larry Maddox, Don Notter, Arthur “Pete” Nibert, Glenn Niday, Francis
Kuhn, James “Jeep” Holley, Glenn Ward, Melvin Craft, Bill Jenkins and Dick Baker.

Thanks to Newport for planning
the program for the evening. Other
members of the reunion planning committee were: Bacus; Melvin Craft and
his wife, Donna; Midge Clagg Evans;
Margaret DeVault Haskins; Holley;
Bill Jenkins; Joann Barry Johnson; Ina
Bell Barcus Sibley; Stewart; Margaret
Kingery Hall-Smith; and Glenn Ward.
Following a very touching and
humorous speech, Larry Maddox
presented Gillespie with a beautiful
engraved plaque that stated, in part:
“Exceptional Service Award … for
your outstanding and devoted work to
bring us together regularly for the past
60 years.”
As Gillespie began to thank the
class for the kind words and plaque,
Maddox told her that he was not yet
finished. With the help of Daphne
Phillips, who carried in a large, framed
symbolic check, Maddox presented it,
along with a generous “real” check.”
Gillespie appeared shocked and
surprised … almost speechless, but
humbled and thankful for the generosity of her classmates. She said she
didn’t feel worthy of their adulation
since many others work to make the
reunion happen.
However, she thanked and
appreciated all the love and generosity of the classmates. Newport
and Maddox planned and executed the special event with the

Class of 1954’s participation.
The class then visited with each
other and several guests who stopped
in to share some time and snacks with
them.
Mike Thompson filmed the evening’s events for the class and will
have DVDs made soon. David Tawney
took the official class photo. Thanks to
them, the class will can have tangible
memories of the fun and blessed time
together.
On Saturday morning, the class
and their guests shared memories and
time together again at the home of Bill
and Anne Jenkins. The brunch was
prepared and served by the Wounded
Goose Restaurant. The Jenkins were
gracious hosts and everyone enjoyed
a relaxing time together on a perfectly
beautiful day in their yard.
Some of the class then toured the
River Museum and the flood wall
murals in Point Pleasant.
The closing event for the class was
watching the annual fireworks from
the front lawn of the Jenkins’ home on
a beautiful, balmy Saturday night and
feeling blessed to be able to celebrate
60 years after graduation from GAHS
and the independence of our nation.
The class is looking forward to celebrating its 65th reunion in 2019, and
maybe meeting together before then.

GALLIPOLIS — Gallia Academy
High School’s Class of 1954 celebrated
their 60th anniversary reunion during
the weekend of July 4-5.
The class celebrated with an banquet meal prepared and served by
the women of the Emblem Club at
the Elks Hall in Gallipolis. The meal
was preceded by hor d’oeuvres and
an exciting time of seeing each other
again — some for a period of several
years.
Jeep Holley extended a warm welcome to each member present, and
Dick Baker offered a prayer of thanks
and blessing for the meal.
After the meal, classmates introduced themselves and their guests and
shared school memories, as well as a
bit of their lives since they last met.
Letters and notes from classmates
who could not attend the reunion
were read by Wanda Newport and
Jean Gillespie, and they related phone
or e-mail messages from several others.
Richard Sisson sang the beautiful
hymn, “How Great Thou Art.” Gillespie sang a few lines of “On Eagles’
Wings” and read the names of 45
classmates who are deceased and
whose lives we fondly remember and
celebrate as Newport played the touching hymn on piano.
Beautiful arrangements of “Abide
with Me” and “La Folia” were played
on violin by Sisson. In between these
songs, Marilyn Donaldson and Bud
Preston presented, in sing-song style,
special words created by Newport to
the tune of “They Way We Were.” The
new words were very creative and fun
as Newport incorporated the names
of many classmates and school events
for us to remember. Newport was also
our very accomplished pianist for all
the music performed.
Holley presented a gas credit card
to Larry Radeker for traveling the
farthest, from Oregon, to attend the
reunion. Gillespie announced that
James Bacus was the first classmate to
send in his reservation. Barbara Johnson Huber won the door prize, which
was a beautiful painting on slate of
“our” GAHS. Tammi Stewart Davison,
who painted it for us, is the daughter
of classmate Phyllis Gothard Stewart.
Sisson led the class in the singing
of our “Alma Mater GHS,” “GAHS
Fight Song” and “For All We Know”
to close the program. This was followed by the recognition of committee
and program members who then sang
“Happy Trails” to the group.

community funds will hoped to
encourage with the 2014 Build
a Fund … for your Community
Challenge,” said commented Jane
Winters, Our Community’s Foundation regional affiliates manager.
“This challenge program was
launched this year on the occasion
of MCCF’s 10th anniversary to
encourage area residents, businesses and organizations to consider
creating a permanent source of
funding to support their charitable
passions. We were thrilled that
Pete and Maggie, who were receiving the local paper in their new
home in Dublin, saw the article

and contacted the Foundation to
take action. It is rewarding to work
with folks who have relocated and
now have the desire to give back
to their home area. This fund will
help us address the current needs
of children and families as well as
improve the quality of life for those
of future generations.”
The Child and Family Life
Development Fund – Pete and
Maggie Roush Hutchins Fund
is held and administered by the
MCCF, which operates as an affiliate of the Parkersburg Area Community Foundation and Regional
Affiliates.
