CSHA banquet set for Friday By Lorna Hart Special to the Sentinel ROCKSPRINGS — Chester Shade Historical Association will host its annual banquet and auction Friday evening at the Meigs High School Cafetorium. The evening begins at 6:30 p.m. with a meal of home cooked food; the menu includes baked steak, chicken and noodles, and a variety of sides, followed by a large selection of homemade desserts. The auction’s bid calling is by Athens businessman and professional auctioneer Chris Collins. The numerous auction items are donated by association members, Meigs businesses, and members of the community donated and always include “a little bit of everything,” such as tools, garden equipment, gift cards and vouchers, collectibles, handmade items, and pies. Some unique items from the 2017 auction were homemade quilts; hand carved wooden bowls, maple syrup, and a hand-carved telephone in the likeness of an eight-point buck. According to current CHSA President Dan Will, items will be accepted at the Chester Courthouse through Friday morning or can be brought to the event. “We’re not going to turn away donations,” Will said. “We appreciate everything we are given, the more items we have, the more money we will make for the Association.” Proceeds from fund- raisers like the Banquet and Auction and the Meigs Heritage Festival are essential to the Association’s ability to maintain two historic buildings: Chester Courthouse, the oldest courthouse in the state, and the Academy, a school adjacent to the Courthouse that dates back to the 1830s.

UN team fired on at suspected Syria chemical attack site BEIRUT (AP) — Assailants opened fire at a U.N. security team visiting the site of a suspected chemical weapons attack in Syria, an official said Wednesday, forcing it to retreat to its base and further delaying a fact-finding mission by outside experts to examine the claims. Gunmen shot at the U.N. team in Douma on Tuesday and detonated an explosive, leading it to return to Damascus, said the head of the international chemical weapons watchdog, Ahmet Uzumcu. He did not identify the assailants. Inspectors from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons have been waiting since Saturday to visit Douma, the site of the alleged April 7 attack. They were initially blocked by the Syrian government and its ally, Russia, on Monday. Then on Tuesday, the advance security team from the U.N. came under fire, compounding the delays. The OPCW inspectors have not yet been able to visit the site, and Uzumcu did not say when they would deploy. The United Nations said more security measures were needed before the inspectors could go in. “There is still a lot of volatility in the area,” U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said, adding that the U.N. security team needed to make at least another visit before the fact-finding mission could go ahead.

Daily Sentinel Trump cites ‘very big deficit’ with Japan By Zeke Miller and Jill Colvin Associated Press PALM BEACH, Fla. — President Donald Trump said Wednesday during a second day of talks with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe that he wants to see “free, fair and reciprocal trade” between the two countries and a whittling away of the trade deficit. “We have a very big deficit, and we’re going to weed that down and hopefully get a balance at some point in the not-toodistant future,” Trump said. The U.S. trade deficit with Japan last year was $56.1 billion, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce. During Abe’s two-day visit, Trump appeared to be seeking to reassure him of the pair’s close alliance as the president prepares for a historic summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Trump and Abe spent Wednesday morning golfing at one of Trump’s nearby courses in their latest show of “golf diplomacy,” and U.S. officials signaled Tuesday that Trump could be open to exempting Japan from new steel and aluminum tariffs that Abe opposes.

It is so common, in fact, that most people will be affected by some form of identity theft at least once in their lives. However, the more knowledgeable we are on identity theft, the better we can be prepared to prevent it. On Monday, April 23, Ohio Valley Bank will host a free, public seminar on identity theft at the Bossard Memorial Library in Gallipolis. The event will begin at 6 p.m. in the Riverside Room. OVB Financial Literacy Leader Hope Roush will discuss types of identity thefts and scams. While all age groups can be a target, identity theft and scams typically strike senior citizens. Roush will be using materials from the American Bankers Association’s Safe Banking for Seniors program. “Safe Banking for Seniors provides a detailed look at identity theft as well as scams. While this program is intended for senior citizens, I have found that the information is relevant to all ages,” Roush said. OVB Vice President and Senior Compliance Officer Daniel Roush will also be on hand to discuss how banks safeguard and protect customer information as well as policies in place to help customers who have been victims of identity theft. “Personal responsibility is essential when it comes to protecting yourself against fraud and identity theft. I hope to provide insight on how to not become a victim of identity theft. I also hope this seminar will educate others on what they can do if they are a victim of fraud,” Roush said. OVB will host two other seminars at the library this summer: First Time Homebuyers, 6 p.m. Monday, Aug. 20 and Credit Scores, 6 p.m. Monday, Aug. 27.

They may be disliked because of whom they married or because they fail to live up to some unattainable ideal. There are many ways a first lady can go wrong, and no misstep goes unnoticed. Barbara Bush, who died Tuesday at age 92, walked through that thicket and emerged almost universally beloved. The wife of the 41st president — and mother of the 43rd — she retained her popularity even when theirs eroded. A 2014 Gallup poll found that 77 percent of Americans regarded her favorably. Edward Rollins, who ran the 1984 Reagan-Bush re-election campaign, called her “far and away the greatest political spouse I’ve seen.” That’s not because she was glamorous, inspiring or groundbreaking. More than anything else, it was because people perceived her as real. She didn’t try to be something she was not. Bush, who succeeded the famously fashionable Nancy Reagan, once joked, “There is a myth around I don’t dress well. I dress very well — I just don’t look so good.” Plenty of people could identify. Her children knew their father as the indulgent parent and their mother as the disciplinarian. A flinty quality was evident beneath her grandmotherly aura. She embraced a traditional role of a political wife, tirelessly campaigning and listening attentively to speeches she had heard over and over. Yet she was known as someone with a mind of her own who brooked no nonsense. Texas Monthly writer Skip Hollandsworth said that son George inherited her “tart tongue and free spirit.” She was privately in favor of abortion rights and gun control, putting her at odds with most of her fellow Republicans. Her tongue occasionally got her in trouble. In 1984, she said she couldn’t reveal what term she would use for Democratic vice presidential nominee Geraldine Ferraro, “but it rhymes with rich.” If you knew only the minimum about Bush, you might think she had a led a charmed life. Born into comfortable circumstances in Manhattan, she attended private schools and married a decorated naval aviator who was the son of a U.S. senator. Her husband made his fortune in the oil business before embarking on a long and fruitful political career. Their marriage lasted 73 years. They and their family often repaired to their 11-acre oceanfront estate in Maine. But she knew pain and hardship. She lost a 3-year-old daughter to leukemia in 1953, and George’s frequent travel forced her to raise her five other children largely by herself. So nomadic was his career that by the time they reached the White House, she had lived in 29 homes, from Midland, Texas, to Beijing. In the 1970s, she suffered such dark depression that she feared she might decide to drive her car into a tree. But the despair eventually lifted, and as first lady, she made her mark by embracing the cause of literacy. She continued that work after leaving the White House with her Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy, which has raised millions of dollars in an effort to make sure that everyone can read. She was an indispensable part of the Bush family’s tradition of public service. And for many Americans, she will long remain the picture of what a first lady should be. THEIR VIEW To the ‘newly retired’ I started planning my retirement in the ninth grade when I was in high school. My dad’s first cousin was a pharmacist and he owned several pharmacies and sold them and retired. He was 40 years old at the time. I planned to do the same as him and chose pharmacy as my career. Up until then I wanted to be a minister. So you might say I chose drugs over the gospel, but at least it was the legal kind. A retirement article should include the journey or path that got you there. I will briefly walk down that path for future generations, so they can plan better than I did. I will then tell you what happens when you get there. If you’re young and still in high school, start early by choosing an occupation. Then study and prepare yourself to pursue whatever it is that you choose. If it’s a skill you want, then work at that skill. There is a shortage of skilled workers in this country and it would be a wise choice. If it’s college or higher education, then start in the ninth grade with the proper classes. Whichever you chose and complete your next decision will be who to work for. If you are fortunate and choose your employer, then look for one with erage and the cost retirement plans.

Today’s youth are at tremendous advantage to do so. Live a healthy life so you can enjoy your years after working. Social Security may not be around when you do so take advantage of every saving plan you can. Today’s best plan, according to my financial advisor, is a Roth Plan. That’s a prepaid tax account that doesn’t have all the silly problems I have with my 401k plan. As far as Social Security, I advise to take as soon as you can, many others do not. The crossover point is 78 when you start losing money. I would rather enjoy the money now and have fun than hoping I live to 78, or worse yet, not be able to do anything if I do. As far as loosing Social Security, they have been saying that for years but given the state of affairs today, it may be wise to plan accordingly.

The Wahama softball team earned a season split with visiting Belpre on Tuesday night following a 14-4 victory in four innings during a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division contest in Mason County. The Lady Falcons (9-5, 6-1 TVC Hocking) dropped a 3-1 decision at BHS on Saturday, and the hosts found themselves in an early hole as the Lady Golden Eagles built a 1-0 lead midway through the first after Madison Harman delivered a two-out single that plated Lauryn Simmons. That, however, was the only advantage that the Orange and Black would enjoy as Wahama answered in the home half of the first by sending a dozen batters to the plate, which resulted in eight runs on seven hits and a pair of walks — giving the Red and White a seven-run cushion an inning into the contest. Maddy VanMatre hit a bases-loaded single that allowed both Hannah Rose and Emma Gibbs to score with nobody out, giving Wahama what proved to be a permanent lead of 2-1. Victoria VanMatre singled home Emily VanMatre for a 3-1 edge, then Grace Haddox — a courtesy runner for Maddy VanMatre — scored on an Ashtyn Russell single for a three-run advantage.

The Southern softball team picked up a pair of Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division victories on Tuesday at Star Mill Park, defeating Federal Hocking by counts of 16-2 and 18-3 in mercy rule fashion. In the opening game, Southern’s (7-2, 6-1 TVC Hocking) first three batters drew walks, and Paige VanMeter brought them around to score with a grand slam home run. Kassie Barton singled home Lauren Lavender singled home with one out in the bottom of the first, stretching the Lady Tornado lead to 5-0. With two gone in the first inning, Jaiden Roberts and Sydney Cleland hit two-run doubles, extending the advantage to 9-0.

This completes the season sweep of the Lancers, as Southern also defeated the Maroon and Gold in its season opener on March 29 at FHHS. Southern dropped its first non-league contest of the year on Saturday at South Point, as the Pointers claimed a 6-2 win. bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com MASON, W.Va. — A different day. A different outcome. After handing Belpre an 18-9 loss this past Saturday, the Wahama baseball team struggled to find any offense during the rematch Tuesday as the visiting Golden Eagles picked up a stellar 6-1 decision in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division contest at Claflin Stadium in Mason County. The White Falcons (7-3, 5-2 TVC Hocking) never led in the contest as the hosts fell behind 2-0 midway through the fourth inning before showing any signs of offensive life. The Red and White started the bottom of the fifth with a lead-off double from Trevor Hunt, who was then replaced by pinch-runner Ethan VanMatre. VanMatre advanced to third on a wild pitch, then came around to score two pitches later as Dalton Kearns reached safely on an error — trimming the deficit down to 2-1 after five complete. The Orange and Black, however, caught a big break in the sixth as a two-out error led to two big insurance runs while extending the lead out to 4-1. Jacob Davis started the rally with a two-out single, then advanced to second on a wild pitch. Bailey Sprague hit a ground ball to an infielder, but the throw went wide of first base — allowing Sprague to reach safely as Davis scored for a 3-1 contest. Sprague later stole second and eventually scored on a single by Isaac Tullius that increased the lead to three midway through Southern Bryan Walters|OVP Sports Wahama second baseman Jonathan Frye, right, applies a successful tag to a Belpre baserunner during the fifth inning of Tuesday night’s TVC Hocking baseball contest in Mason, W.Va. the sixth. Wahama didn’t manage another baserunner the rest of the way, and BHS added a pair of scores in the top of the seventh as Davis and Logan Adams both provided RBI singles that wrapped up the five-run triumph. Adams scored the first run of the night on a Tullius fielder’s choice in the first, then Kole Knotts scored on a oneout error in the fourth for a 2-0 edge. The Golden Eagles outhit the hosts by an 8-5 overall margin, and Wahama committed three of the five errors in the contest. Another key in the final outcome were the extra chances provided to Belpre, who benefited from five walks and three hit batters. The White Falcons drew just one walk in the setback. After the game, WHS coach Billy Zuspan wasn’t as much disappointed as he was impressed with how well Belpre played on this given night. He thought that his troops did a lot of positive things, but these Golden Eagles were just a different animal. “That was just a good old-fashioned baseball loss. They played a pretty clean defensive game and made all the plays they needed to make against a pitcher that did a pretty good job out there tonight,” Zuspan said. “I felt like we hit the ball well, but it seemed like it ended up going right where one of the defenders were. We just never could get anything going offensively and one run doesn’t win too many ball games. “I thought our pitching was good tonight, but Belpre put together some hits and we helped them a little bit with some mistakes that came back to cost us. We needed to be perfect tonight, and we weren’t.” Wahama left runners stranded at first and second with two outs in the second, then Kearns was left at third base with two away in the third. The hosts also had runners at first and second with one out in the fourth before the inning ended with a double play. Overall, the White Falcons left four runners on base and the guests stranded a dozen on the bags. Half of Belpre’s runs were also unearned. Nick Godfrey was the winning pitcher of record as the southpaw allowed zero earned runs, five hits and a walk over seven innings while striking out three. Kearns took the toughluck loss after surrendering two runs (one earned), three hits and three walks over four frames while fanning five. Kearns, Hunt, Tyler Bumgarner, Antonio Serevicz and Cooper Peters had the lone hits for the White Falcons. Davis paced BHS with four hits, followed by Adams, Tullius, Godfrey and Jesse Collins with a safety apiece.

The RedStorm remained at the bottom of the nine-team field following the conclusion of the River States Conference Women’s Golf Tournament at Lassing Pointe Golf Course. Rio tallied a second round total of 502 — 22 shots better than Monday’s opening round — but the RedStorm finished with a total score of 450-over par 1,026. Midway University won the event with a 107-over par total of 683. Indiana University East (709) and Indiana University Kokomo (719) rounded out the top three. IU East’s Breanna Nowak and Midway’s Kathryn Lawler tied at the top of the individual leaderboard with a 23-over par 167, with Nowak taking medalist honors on the second hole of a playoff. In addition to Nowak and Lawler, the allconference first team included Asbury’s Hannah McCrabb and the Midway duo of Hannah Scroggins and Chelsea Schack. Second team all-conference honorees included AnneMarie Balsbaugh and Brandi Jones of IU Kokomo, Claire Watts from Asbury, Midway’s Rylee Beard and Lauren Heitkamp of IU East. McCrabb was named Newcomer of the Year, Lawler was Player of the Year and Midway’s Otis Smith was Coach of the Year. Rio Grande’s top individual showing came from senior Nicole Asbun (La Paz, Bolivia), who tied for 20th place in the 45-player field with a 51-over par total of 195. Freshman Kimberly Edelmann (Gallipolis, OH) tied for 33rd place at 91-over par 235, while senior Hannah Hawley (Thurman, OH) and freshman Rachael Barber (Ashland, KY) tied for 41st place with a total of 298 and freshman Jimi Howell (Barberton, OH) was 43rd at 332. Asbun was also Rio’s representative on the league’s Champion of Character Team. For Ohio Valley Publishing HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. — After cruising to a weekend series sweep of Cincinnati Christian University, the University of Rio Grande baseball team found more success against a school from the greater Cincinnati area on Tuesday afternoon. Only this time, the opposition was a team from the ranks of NCAA Division I. The RedStorm coughed up an early four-run lead before rallying late to post an 8-5 victory over Northern Kentucky University at a sunsplashed Bill Aker Baseball Complex. Rio Grande improved to 21-23 with the win - its second straight against an NCAA Division I foe. The last came against Ohio University nearly four years ago to the day - a 2-0 win on April 16, 2014 in Athens. Northern Kentucky, a member of the Horizon League, dropped to 9-24 with the loss. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande. NKU Courtesy photo Rio Grande’s Michael Rodriguez applies a tag to Northern Kentucky University’s Will Haueter for a first inning out during Tuesday afternoon’s game at the Bill Aker Baseball Complex in Highland Heights, Ky. The RedStorm knocked off the NCAA Division I Norse, 8-5. The Norse spotted the RedStorm a 5-1 lead after two innings, but rallied to tie the game with three runs in the fifth inning and another marker in the sixth inning. Rio Grande regained the lead in the eighth inning on a one-out solo home run by sophomore Dylan Shockley (Minford, OH) - his third hit and second extra-base hit of the day. The RedStorm then added two more runs in the top of the ninth thanks to three straight one-out singles - by senior Ty Warnimont (Rio Grande, OH), sophomore Eli Daniels (Minford, OH) and senior Juan Cruz (Juana Diaz, P.R.) - and an two-out error on a ground ball to second by junior Dalton Wilburn (Ashville, OH). NKU made things interesting against Shockley the last of three Rio pitchers - in the bottom of the ninth with a trio of walks, but Preston Pilat flied out to center to seal the win and Shockley’s second save of the season. Shockley finished 3-for4 and was a double shy of hitting for the cycle, while Daniels went 3-for-5 with an RBI in the win. Warnimont and Cruz both had two hits, while seniors Cody Blackburn (Amanda, OH) and Kameron Herring (Heath, OH) drove in two runs each. Senior Jacob Hastings (Commercial Point, OH) picked up his third win in four decisions, allowing seven hits and four earned runs over seven innings. Chad Roberts had two hits, including a three-run home run, for Northern Kentucky. Kyle Service, the third of three pitchers for the Norse, suffered the loss. Rio Grande returns to action on Friday afternoon when it opens an important three-game series at Midway University. First pitch for Friday’s opener is set for 3 p.m. at Chandler Field in Versailles, Ky. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande.

OWNER: Personal Property of the late David Winefordner by Dean Winefordner OH-70043708 SERVICES COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Washington Capitals needed a lucky bounce to finally get an overtime win in Game 3 in their intense first-round playoff series with the Columbus Blue Jackets. Lars Eller got the last stick on a puck that bounced off him and Columbus defenseman Zach Werenski before rolling past Sergei Bobrovsky, and Washington got the 3-2 victory nine minutes into the SHERIDAN’S SHAMROCK AUCTION SERVICE, LLC AUCTIONEERS: John Patrick “Pat” Sheridan, Kerry Sheridan-Boyd & Michael Boyd WEB: shamrock-auctions.com Email: shamrockauction@aol.com PH: 740-591-5607 second overtime Tuesday night. The Capitals won at Nationwide Arena after Columbus won the first two games — both in overtime — in Washington. It was the Capitals’ turn to prevail in OT, this time on the Blue Jackets’ home ice, to pull to 2-1 in the best-ofseven series. “It means a ton, a win like this after playing for that long,” Eller said. “I’m sure they feel a lot more tired in that room than we are feeling right now. It gives you a lot of energy. It’s going to be a battle again in Game 4.” Tom Wilson and John Carlson also scored, and Braden Holtby stopped 33 shots for the Capitals, who were in danger of falling into a nearly insurmountable hole had they let the game slip away. “We got some good fortune, but we also executed and we were committed today,” Capitals coach Barry Trotz said. Game 4 is Thursday night back here with Game 5 set for Washington on Saturday. “We got a break, it’s what we needed,” Capitals forward John Connolly said. “You need breaks, every team is so good now, you need to keep pressing and pressing. “ Pierre-Luc Dubois and Artemi Panarin scored for Columbus, and Bobrovsky finished with 42 saves after getting 54 in the Game 2 on Sunday. Panarin knotted the score 4:12 into the third period after he and Cam Atkinson went back and forth with pinpoint passes before he swiped it past Holtby from the left circle. That’s the way it stayed until the second overtime. After a scoreless first period, Wilson got credit for the first Washington goal when he deflected Matt Niskanen’s rising shot 5:52 into the second. The Blue Jackets got a break two minutes later when a goal by Connolly was waved off after a video replay showed he was offside bringing the puck down the ice. Dubois tied it with 8:42 left in the second when he rifled a shot past Holtby’s glove from the right circle. Later in the period, with Columbus’ Brandon Dubinsky and Ryan Murray both in the penalty box for slashing, Carlson connected with 5:17 left on a one-timer 28 seconds into the 5-on-3. After feasting on the power play in the first two games, the Blue Jackets failed to score on four tries with a man advantage. The Capitals whiffed on three of their four power plays. “It’s a hell of a series,” Columbus coach John Tortorella said. NOTES: The Capitals have outshot the Blue Jackets 133-92 through the first three games. … Washington F Jakub Vrana played in place of Andre Burakovsky, who is out at least through Thursday’s game with an upper-body injury suffered when he was checked into the boards by Blue Jackets F Boone Jenner on Sunday. Vrana was a healthy scratch for that game. … Blue Jackets F Alexander Wennberg missed a second game after being injured in Game 1. Sonny Milano again played in his place. … The announced crowd of 19,337 was the largest ever for a Blue Jackets game. … Washington star Alex Ovechkin appeared in his 100th career playoff game. … Panarin, who had an assist on Dubois’ goal, has eight straight multi-point games. … It was the 22nd time in NHL history that a playoff series went to overtime in at least three consecutive games. �COMICS Daily Sentinel BLONDIE Thursday, April 19, 2018 9 By Dean Young and John Marshall BEETLE BAILEY By Mort, Greg and Brian Walker Today’s answer RETAIL By Norm Feuti HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI AND LOIS By Chris Browne Written By Brian & Greg Walker; Drawn By Chance Browne THE BRILLIANT MIND OF EDISON LEE By John Hambrock BABY BLUES ZITS By Jerry Scott & Rick Kirkman By Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman PARDON MY PLANET By Vic Lee CONCEPTIS SUDOKU by Dave Green "Y $AVE 'REEN RHYMES WITH ORANGE � � � � � � By Hilary Price � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � ª ���� $IFFICULTY ,EVEL By Bil and Jeff Keane ���� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � ���� #ONCEPTIS 0UZZLES $IST� BY +ING &EATURES 3YNDICATE )NC� � � � � � � � � � By Bunny Hoest & John Reiner Today’s Solution THE FAMILY CIRCUS � � � � � � � � � DENNIS THE MENACE THE LOCKHORNS � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � ª$IFFICULTY ,EVEL Hank Ketcham’s ���� #ONCEPTIS 0UZZLES $IST� BY +ING &EATURES 3YNDICATE )NC� � � � see what’s brewing on the job market.

Barrett peeled off the orange No. 5 practice jersey, tossed it in a laundry bin and headed for the locker room. He stopped at one intersection and tried to get his bearings — he’d never had to navigate the Paul Brown Stadium passageways. The record-setting Ohio State quarterback quickly found his way back to his locker and did a few interviews. That’s pretty much all that’s left for him to do between now and the NFL draft, when Barrett finds out whether he’ll get chosen in one of the later rounds or have to extend his career as a free agent. “I don’t know if I’m out to prove anything or change people’s minds,” Barrett said. “What’s out there on me as far as tape — that’s who I am. I’m still striving to develop and get better. I don’t think I’m a finished product yet.” The dual-threat quarterback worked out at the NFL combine and has been keeping in shape in Columbus. He was one of 35 local draft-eligible players who worked out for about 45 minutes at the Bengals’ stadium Tuesday in a cold, northern wind. Barrett and Florida quarterback Malik Zaire threw passes to receivers from Thomas More, Cincinnati, Miami of Ohio, Kentucky and Akron. Barrett took snaps in a shotgun formation at Ohio State; Bengals coaches worked with him on his footwork Tuesday. “I thought it was smooth,” he said. “They changed the footwork I’m normally accustomed to doing. I couple of throws I wish I had back, but it happens.” Barrett won a school-record 38 games at Ohio State and was a key part of the 2014 national championship season. He took over when Braxton Miller suffered a shoulder injury and went 11-1 as the starting quarterback. He broke his right ankle in the fourth quarter of the final regular-season game against Michigan, and Cardale Jones led the Buckeyes the rest of the way to the title. Last season, he struggled in losses to Oklahoma and Iowa. His inconsistency, his arm strength and his low completion percentage for downfield throws work against him in the draft. Browns’ Jackson: team still undecided on QB CLEVELAND (AP) — As the NFL draft nears, the Cleveland Browns are still doing their homework on quarterbacks. The final exam is quickly approaching, but the No. 1 pick remains an unknown to everyone, including coach Hue Jackson. On Tuesday, Jackson dismissed reports that general manager John Dorsey has settled on a quarterback and said the top prospects — Southern California’s Sam Darnold, Wyoming’s Josh Allen, Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield and UCLA’s Josh Rosen — remain in contention to be selected by the Browns. “I think they all are (in the mix) today,” he said. “I think we haven’t settled on that yet.” Coming off a 0-16 season, the Browns, who haven’t been able to adequately fix their quarterback problem for years, are being thorough in their evaluation of what is considered a very strong QB class. Jackson and Dorsey Don Wright| AP file Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson has said the team has not yet reached a decision on which quarterback it will draft with the No. 1 overall pick in this year’s draft. Jackson said the top prospects — Southern California’s Sam Darnold, Wyoming’s Josh Allen, Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield and UCLA’s Josh Rosen — remain in contention to be selected by the Browns. have attended pro days and private workouts and the team has hosted the top four quarterbacks, along with 2017 Heisman Trophy winner Lamar Jackson, at its headquarters in Berea, Ohio. Jackson insists Dorsey hasn’t made up his mind on the top choice. “When I say this I mean it, John Dorsey and his group, they don’t come up for air,” Jackson said. “This is 24 hours, seven days a week, through the weekend. I’ve worked more on the weekends here than I ever had to be a part of this. That’s what John does. There’s no detail that we’re going to leave unturned. So there’s a lot of time being spent to get this right.” The Browns’ diligence and secrecy hasn’t slowed a daily assault of mock drafts and guesses as to what the team might do. ,��������$%� '������� �)#�$��!�� ,� ���&� �� ���%���%���!& ,��"!%�$(�&�(����$�%&��! ,��" '!�&*� "�'%�� ,��$"'������ � ��$ ,� ��$��!������!��� ,��"'����!�� ��$��%% ,��$"(�!���$(�������"$� ,� �$���"$��!���!����+����!& ,��" �&&���&"��'�������$(��� ON MAY 8TH Choose the candidate who has a genuine passion for her home. warnerforjudge.com Indians prospect sues over deal that ties up future earnings COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A top Cleveland Indians prospect is suing a company he claims gave him $360,000 in exchange for a 10 percent stake in his future earnings that could amount to millions of dollars. Catcher Francisco Mejia claims in a federal lawsuit filed in February that the agreement is unfair and unenforceable, and that he didn’t understand the extent to which he was mortgaging his future when he signed the contracts to get the money. Mejia, who is from the Dominican Republic and has the equivalent of a ninth-grade education, claims in the suit filed on his behalf that Big League Advance Fund issued three separate “loans” to him in 2016 “under unconscionable terms and conditions and through unconscionable means,” once when his mother was sick and the family needed money for medical treatment. But Michael Schwimer, the former major league pitcher who runs the 2-year-old Fairfax, Virginiabased company, denies there was anything unfair or illegal about the deals and said they were explained in detail to the player in Spanish before he signed. Mejia was given money he doesn’t have to pay back if he doesn’t make a career out of major league baseball, said Schwimer, who described it as an investment in the player’s potential to sign a lucrative contract a few years down the road. He said he urges players to have their agents and lawyers involved, which Mejia did when he signed the first contract. Later, Mejia came back and sought the other two deals on his own. “We never, ever, ever tell a player hey, you should sign this deal or you shouldn’t sign this deal,” Schwimer said. “My job is to simply tell a player that this exists, it’s an option if you want it.” Schwimer said his investors are speculating that one or more of the prospects the company signs eventually will be a highly paid superstar. He likened it to Silicon Valley investors who put money into tech startups hoping one of them will become the next Facebook or Google. The company has signed and given money to about 100 minor league players and has so far lost money, he said. Faro tosses no-hitter at Ironton, 11-0 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com OH-70040124 Tough but Fair! As your Meigs County Common Pleas Judge, I would be working for ALL of Meigs County.

But, if anyone violates the law, commits a crime and victimizes others, that person must be punished appropriately—and I have no problem issuing such punishment. I am dedicated to Meigs County—past, present and future. Vote for me and, TOGETHER, we can and will build a stronger community. Jackson said he blocks out all the noise, and chuckled at a report than Dorsey was favoring Allen. “Everywhere you turn, that’s what everybody is talking about,” he said. “I’m not concerned about those things because I know what goes on here in the building every day. I talk to John Dorsey three, four, five times a day. I think all kinds of things get said. I mean, I laughed at that. When I say John Dorsey goes dark, he goes dark. “Whoever thinks they’re finding John Dorsey, trust me, you’re not finding him. So I think there are a lot of things that get said that I know aren’t true. And if there was a consensus that John would’ve come to at this point, he would’ve told me. So I know that’s not the case.” And while his boss hasn’t made a decision, Jackson, too, remains noncommittal on who Cleveland should select. “I’m the same way. I’m sifting through my side of it, too,” he said. “Again, this has been good for me to learn even a different way of looking at it. I go back, and myself and (quarterbacks coach) Kenny (Zampese) and (offensive coordinator) Todd (Haley), we’ve had great dialogue and conversation and I think we’re still all going through it, too. NFL teams have suggested changes in how he gets ready to throw. “Unless you’re some guy that has a funky release or a slow release and throwing motion, they don’t really try to touch your arm,” he said. “The biggest thing is the footwork and the hips.” As a four-year starter at Ohio State, Barrett set school records for career passing yards, passing yards per game, completions, completion percentage, touchdown passes and total offense. He also holds numerous Big Ten records. IRONTON, Ohio — A collective yes around this no-no. Junior Josh Faro allowed no hits, only one walk and struck out a dozen batters while guiding the Gallia Academy baseball team to a season sweep of host Ironton on Tuesday night during an 11-0 mercy-rule victory in an Ohio Valley Conference contest in Lawrence County. The visiting Blue Devils (5-4, 4-2 OVC) sent a dozen batters to the plate in the top half of the first, which yielded eight runs on four hits, three walks, a hit batter, a fielder’s choice and an error for a sizable eight-run advantage a half-inning into play. That offensive output proved to be way more than enough for Faro, who struck out eight of the first nine batters he faced and retired 10 straight before allowing a walk to Brycen Thomas in the fourth. After inducing a flyout to left in the next at-bat, Faro proceeded to fan the final four IHS batters while eventually wrapping up the mercy-rule decision in five innings. GAHS went on to add a run apiece in the second, third and fifth frames, completing the 11-run triumph. The Blue and White claimed a season sweep of the Fighting Tigers after posting a 7-1 decision at Eastman Field back on April 5. Besides on the diamond this spring, Gallia Academy also defeated Ironton in all of its varsity football and basketball contests as well. Garrett McGuire drove in the eventual gamewinning run in the top of the first after delivering a bases-loaded single with one out, allowing Braden Simms to come home for a 1-0 cushion. Matt Moreaux and Morgan Stanley followed with a walk and a hit by pitch, leading to RBIs and a 3-0 cushion. McGuire and Moreaux later scored on an Ironton error, then Stanley scored on another error that made it 6-0 — still with only one out in the frame. Cade Roberts and Cole Davis eventually came plateward on a two-out double by Simms, making it an 8-0 contest midway through the first inning. Thomas singled home Dylan Smith in the sec- ond for a 9-0 advantage, then Davis came home on a ground out by Simms in the third that extended the lead to double digits. Faro knocked in the final run in the fifth with a sacrifice fly to left that allowed Davis to score for an 11-run cushion. GAHS collected all seven hits and also played an error-free game while also benefiting from three errors by the Orange and Black. The guests stranded five runners on base, while Ironton left only one on the bags. Faro picked up the win after allowing only one walk and fanning 12 in five innings on the mound. Gage Salyers took the loss after surrendering nine runs (six earned), five hits and four walks over two innings while striking out one. Simms and McGuire paced the Blue Devils with two hits apiece, followed by Davis, Thomas and Roberts with a safety each. Simms led the guests with three RBIs and Thomas knocked in two, while Davis crossed home plate a team-best three times.
