Get a front row seat to democracy in action
Submitted

people to ensure things
run smoothly on Election
Day and we’re calling on

Ohio Secretary of State
Jon Husted’s ofﬁce is
working with business
leaders like you to get
the word out about how
anyone can become a
poll worker, and in doing

so, secure themselves a
front seat to democracy in

partnering with Secretary
Husted’s ofﬁce to get the
word out to your employees and members about

and was organized and named
April 12, 1820. Alvin Ogdin
from Columbia, Maryland, built
the ﬁrst log cabin in the area
that would become Columbia
Township in 1804. Amos Carpenter, Sr., came from Virginia
at an early period and settled
in Rutland Township. Around
1818 he sold his farm there and
bought a valuable tract of land
in Columbia Township.
It was noted in Ervin’s Pioneer History of Meigs County
that, “The township was especially interested in schools and
education, and a trace of one
of the earliest libraries was
located in this township.” It’s
interesting to point out that
Professor Will C. Meritt, born
in 1866 in Carpenter, went on
to teach in various places in
Meigs County and is said to
have taught the ﬁrst agriculture class in the state of Ohio.
Another famous Columbia
Township educator was Professor Joshua R. Morton who
went on to become a professor
of Chemistry at Ohio University and is the namesake of
Morton Hall on OU’s campus.
In 1822, Chester (then village) was named Meigs County’s seat of government. Chester Township was organized
March 1, 1824, from parts of
Sutton, Salisbury, and Orange
Townships and was named
Chester at the suggestion of
Colonel David Barber. The
Township of Chester is said to
be named after Chester County,
Pennsylvania, one of the three
original counties in that state.
In 1777, Nathaniel Burrell,
nicknamed “The Great Bear
Hunter,” settled on the middle
branch of the Shade River
about one mile north of Chester village (now community).
Chester Township is one of ﬁve
townships with the same name
in the state of Ohio. The others
are in Clinton County, Geauga
County, Morrow County, and
Wayne County.

educator.

Gallia Academy fights off Lady Tigers Tuesday
By Alex Hawley

IRONTON, Ohio — An allout offensive attack.
The Gallia Academy volleyball team earned 60 of its 75
points by either kill or ace on
Tuesday evening in Lawrence
County, as the Blue Angels
rolled to a straight games victory over Ohio Valley Conference host Ironton.
Gallia Academy (16-3, 11-0
OVC) — which has now won
40 straight league matches
— only trailed once in the
opening game, as Ironton took
the advantage at 4-3. GAHS

in the ﬁrst.
The Lady Tigers — who fell
to 4-7 in the eight-team league
with the setback — scored the
ﬁrst two points of the second
game, but the Blue Angels
took the lead at 4-3 and never
looked back. The Blue and
White earned 10 aces in the
second set alone, as they went
up 2-0 in the match with a 25-9
victory.
Gallia Academy ﬁnished the
night with a match-best 15
kills in the third game, which
the Blue Angels led wire-towire and won by a 25-16 count
to seal the match.
GAHS — which also
defeated Ironton in straight

games on Sept. 4 in Centenary — ﬁnished with a side-out
percentage of 70, while IHS
had a 35.6 side-out percentage.
The victors earned a 90.4

while pounding down 38 kills
for a 30.6 hitting percentage.
Meanwhile, the Orange and
Black had two aces and a 97.5
serve percentage, to go with
a dozen kills and a 1.7 hitting
percentage.
Maddie Wright led the Blue

eight points and one ace in
the win, Hunter Copley added
seven points and a quartet of

Hue kidding? Jackson miffed
by calls in OT loss to Raiders
BEREA, Ohio (AP)
— Browns coach Hue
Jackson knew if he complained about Sunday’s
ofﬁciating he could be
ﬁned. The NFL is always
watching and listening.
He may soon be writing a check to Commissioner Roger Goodell.
Still smarting after
Cleveland’s road losing streak reached 22
consecutive games with
an overtime loss at
Oakland, Jackson was
asked Monday if he was
satisﬁed the ofﬁcials had
correctly spotted the ball
in the closing minutes on
a critical measurement
that was overturned by a
replay review.
“There are a lot of
things that I am not satisﬁed about,” he said.
Jackson then clicked

off a few.
“The kicking of the
football down the ﬁeld
right next to the ofﬁcial,
the sack-fumble on a
quarterback … Do you
guys want me to keep
going?” he asked reporters. “The spot. It goes
on and on and on. We
have to do a better job
of being in control of it,
not the ofﬁcials being in
control of it.”
Although Jackson
didn’t solely lay the 45-42
loss to the Raiders on the
refs, there’s no denying
that some questionable
calls that went against
the Browns (1-2-1) led
to another heartbreaking
loss.
The Browns appeared
to pick up a game-sealing
ﬁrst down — and were
poised to win rookie

quarterback Baker Mayﬁeld’s ﬁrst start — with
1:38 left in regulation as
running back Carlos Hyde
gained 2 yards on thirdand-2.
But replay ofﬁcial Billy
Smith ruled Hyde was
short of the marker and
overturned the conversion. The Browns were
forced to punt and the
Raiders wound up tying
the score and winning
in OT on a 29-yard ﬁeld
goal.
Even by Cleveland standards, this one hurt.
Jackson, though, came
away feeling encouraged
by his young team. The
Browns overcame a litany
of their own mistakes
and were in position to
win before their defense
crumbled at the end of
regulation.

that right now is starting to
click and hopefully we can get
even better at it.”
It would be difﬁcult to be
better than Dalton was in the
ﬁrst half Sunday . He completed 14 of 16 passes and
had a passer rating of 158.3,
the highest possible. The Bengals ran 24 plays and scored
28 points, averaging 9.9 yards
per play.
On the winning drive,
Dalton completed passes on
third-and-6, fourth-and-8 and
fourth-and-6 before hitting
Green for the touchdown.
“He pulled us out of a heck
of a situation,” cornerback
Dre Kirkpatrick said.
The Bengals had losing

records the past two seasons
because they were unable to
pull out games at the end.
The winning drive marked a
notable step forward.
“We didn’t ﬂinch,” Dalton
said. “We just kept going.
That’s what you need to be a
really good team and to be a
good offense.”
Dalton is known for getting
into a rhythm and getting rid
of the ball quickly in Cincinnati’s West Coast offense. He
never got into a rhythm last
season because he rarely had
time to set and throw. The
offensive line was so inconsistent that there was little
running game, either, leaving
Dalton as a target.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton
(14) walks off the field after the Bengals
defeated the Atlanta Falcons 37-36 on Sunday
in Atlanta. Dalton had just led a winning
16-play drive, connecting with A.J. Green on a
13-yard touchdown with 7 seconds left.

CINCINNATI (AP) — The
Bengals knew drastic changes
were in order after they ﬁnished last in the league in
offense and Andy Dalton suffered through his worst season since he was a rookie.
They changed the playbook, bolstered the offensive
line and decided to set Dalton
loose.
One month into the season,
he’s back in a comfort zone
and producing as well as ever.
Dalton’s resurgence has
been the most notable aspect
to Cincinnati’s 3-1 start. He
was nearly perfect in the ﬁrst
half of a 37-36 win at Atlanta
on Sunday, missing only two
passes while throwing for

‘Roval’ a smashing
success for all
except Johnson
CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Wherever NASCAR
is headed these next few years, Marcus Smith
proved he deserves a seat at the head negotiating
table.
The head of Speedway Motorsports Inc. has
been pushing for innovative changes in the sport,
and he actually put his money where his ideas are
by renovating Charlotte Motor Speedway into a
combination oval and road course that made for
one of the most exciting races of the season. There
were so many unknowns surrounding Smith’s
“roval” that fans were genuinely excited for Sunday’s playoff race (it helped that the word “roval”
was a draw all its own, prompting casual fans to
give a curious look at NASCAR for the ﬁrst time
in forever).
When the smoke from the post-race ﬁreworks
ﬁnally cleared Sunday, and Ryan Blaney had
washed down his playoff victory with a champagne toast led by Smith and Charlotte’s loyal
fans, NASCAR was able to sit back and celebrate a
successful weekend.
It’s been a while since everything went this well
— with Jimmie Johnson a prominent exception.
There won’t be a record eighth championship, at
least not this year, because the most accomplished
driver of his generation refused to play follow the
leader across the ﬁnish line. Winless and losing
the only sponsor he’s ever had in NASCAR, Johnson and his Hendrick Motorsports team have not
appeared to be a contender this season. Had Johnson advanced to the second round of the playoffs
it would have been a welcome victory, small as it
may be since he entered the race a candidate for
elimination.
Instead, Johnson found himself running inside
the top 10 for a large chunk of the race, and after a
late crash knocked out some of the most dominant
cars, Johnson was second to Martin Truex Jr. over
the ﬁnal three laps.
Had Johnson stayed in line, he would have
moved on to the playoffs. But he hasn’t won in
over a year and the race was at Charlotte, where
Johnson won eight points races on the oval and
was once unbeatable. He made his move on the
ﬁnal lap and it was a spectacular disaster. First
Johnson wheel-hopped as he tried to pass Truex,
then his car slid through grass and shot back out,
clipping Truex and Blaney slipped by both for the
victory.
It’s hard to criticize Johnson for going for a
drought-ending win. Where he truly messed up
was in missing the ﬁnal corner on the roval. Under
the rules, Johnson was forced to stop his car and
self-penalize himself for the whiff. When he drove
off, he’d fallen from second to eighth, lost his cushion in the standings and ended up in a three-way
tie for the ﬁnal transfer spot in the playoffs — and
he lost on a tie-breaker.

Ready for redemption
Indians eyeing
title this October

CLEVELAND (AP)
— There was new postseason gear awaiting
the Indians when they
arrived at Progressive
Field for an intra-squad
scrimmage, one of their
last workouts before
things get very real.
The fresh swag included blue-and-red T-shirts
emblazoned with “October Ready.”
“October Redemption”
may have been more ﬁtting.
After falling short of a
World Series title the past
two postseasons with gutwrenching defeats, the
Indians enter the 2018
playoffs looking to ﬁnish
the job and end baseball’s
longest championship
drought — now at 70
years.

Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona, left, and infielder Josh
Donaldson laugh during a team workout Tuesday in Cleveland. The
Indians will play the Houston Astros on Friday in Game 1 of the AL
Division Series.

“The last two Octobers,” said All-Star catcher Yan Gomes. “We had it
in our grasp and it kind of
just slipped away.”
When the Indians open
the AL Division Series on
Friday in Houston with
20-game winner Corey
Kluber facing Astros
star Justin Verlander,

those past fall failures
won’t mean a thing to a
Cleveland team that has
had several weeks to get
healthy and line up its
pitching after coasting to
a third straight Central
title.
But since blowing a 2-0
lead in last year’s Division
Series to the New York

Yankees, the Indians have
been focused on getting
their next swings on baseball’s biggest stage.
This time, they want to
make the most off them.
“I certainly think that
the way the last the last
couple of years have gone
have hopefully driven us
to work a little bit harder,
crave it a little bit more
in getting there and being
that last team to win
a game,” said reliever
Andrew Miller, whose
struggles this season have
included three disabledlist stints. “It’s not going
to be easy. There’s a lot
of good teams that you
got to go through and you
got to have a lot of things
probably go your way.
“You got to have luck
on your side on top of
it all, so this team is as
capable as anybody. It’s
just a matter of us getting
those breaks and playing
up to our ability.”

Popcorn problems? Steelers’ issues are piling up
PITTSBURGH (AP)
— One of Mike Tomlin’s
favorite metaphors when
things aren’t going well
for the Pittsburgh Steelers is likening his team’s
issues to popcorn. Translation: The problems are
scattered and unpredictable.
And they’re spreading.
The two-time defending AFC North champions woke up on the ﬁrst
day of October tied with
Cleveland for last place
in the division at 1-2-1.
It’s no longer just the
defense that’s under ﬁre.
Pittsburgh managed all
of 47 yards in the second
half of a 26-14 loss to
Baltimore on Sunday

night that left the rival
Ravens practically strutting off Heinz Field, and
the Steelers wondering
when the turnaround is
going to happen.
Quarterback Ben
Roethlisberger tried to
shoulder most of the
blame and he was hardly
crisp while going 8 of
18 for 50 yards with an
interception in the second half. Yet the passing
game was downright
dynamic compared to
how Pittsburgh ran — or
technically, didn’t run —
the ball.
Roethlisberger handed
off four times over the
ﬁnal 30 minutes. The
Steelers gained 5 yards.

1 against Cleveland, the
Steelers have managed
130 over their last three
games combined, the
absence of running back
Le’Veon Bell — who has
yet to sign his franchise
tag — becoming more
acute by the day.
Tomlin admitted
“that’s a good question”
when asked late Sunday
night why Pittsburgh
got away from the run
so quickly against the
Ravens.
“We were not able to
ﬁnd enough traction
tonight,” Tomlin said.
“We didn’t run it a lot
and I’d imagine the more
we run it, the more traction we will ﬁnd.”

And it wasn’t like Pittsburgh was throwing the
ball because it was in
catch-up mode. The game
was tied at the break.
The Ravens, by comparison, ran 20 times in
the second half while putting together four long
drives that ended with
Justin Tucker ﬁeld goals,
allowing them to slowly
pull away.
“We’ve got some things
to ﬁx,” center Maurkice

better.”
