With the changing ﬁnancial challenges facing local schools, Gallia County Local Schools launched an online academy called SODA, which stands for Southern Ohio Digital Academy. It was part of a three-part plan to be ﬁscally responsible and increase student participation and achievement. After a pilot run of the pro- gram, Scot West, director of the Digital Academy, moved forward with implementing the program this year in 6-12 grades, leading to an increase in academic success among students. While there are many online schooling options in the state of Ohio, a program that is locally based and operated by a public school district is rather unique. “As a district we have made it very clear, we don’t work in a box. When we are working with a student, we will go anywhere to ﬁnd the best solution to help them,” said Jude Meyers, superintendent of Gallia County Local. This is the mindset that came up with the online academy in Gallia County, one that was willing to think outside the traditional box and solve the problem of educating students in an everchanging environment. “We were losing students to all of the other online private schools in the state, and losing money from decreased enrollment,” said West. “When these online schools failed the students, they simply dumped them back on us leaving us with the problem of how to See ONLINE | 5A Deputies investigate kid drowning Staff Report GUYAN TOWNSHIP — Gallia County Sheriff Matt Champlin conﬁrmed that his ofﬁce is investigating an apparent juvenile drowning which occurred on March 23 in the area of Williams Creek Road.

Since the 2009-10 school year, Farmers Bank has hosted a Junior Board of Directors program for students from area high schools. The students meet monthly to cover various topics associated with running a business, as well as taking a ﬁeld trip to the Ohio Statehouse, with a stop by Rocky Brands, Inc. The mission of the Farmers Bank’s Junior Board of Directors is to, develop communication with the leaders of the future; Foster a stronger understanding of the ﬁnance, banking and economic issues affecting our community, as well as our nation; Provide an opportunity for students to gain exposure to a corporate board environment; and Encourage students to develop outreach programs that can better unite the company and its community. Farmers Bank President Paul Reed explained the program is also a way to show the students on the Junior Board the importance of small business, as well as learning about ﬁnances and items such as balancing a check book. Throughout the course of the school year, students meet monthly with bank employees who serve as their consultants, covering the process of starting the business.

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — The Mason County Commission has unanimously voted to initiate a lawsuit against some pharmaceutical drug companies which they believe have exacerbated the opioid addition issue in Mason County. At their regular meeting on Thursday, Commissioners Sam Nibert, Tracy Doolittle and Rick Handley voted to move forward with the lawsuit, retaining the Chaﬁn Law Firm of Williamson, W.Va., to represent the commission, with Mason County Attorney Matt Clark, acting as a local lawyer on the case. If, and only if, the county wins the suit or agrees on a settlement, will the Chaﬁn Firm receive 25 percent of any amount the county is awarded. Attorney Letitia Neese Chaﬁn said the ﬁrm would even absorb the ﬁling fees as well as any expenses should the county lose the suit. This means, the county doesn’t stand to lose any money by moving forward. The issue to move forward with the lawsuit was tabled by Nibert earlier this month, saying he needed more information. He elaborated on that Thursday, saying he wanted to talk to more people dealing with the issue and to citizens. He added, he wanted to be sure the commission was “doing the right thing” in terms of being sure not to hurt local pharmacies as well. “We don’t want to target our local pharmacy people,” he said. “We’ve got to start at the top on this.” By “the top,” he speciﬁcally named the companies Cardinal Health and McKessan Corporation, though the suit may include more companies.

Born in Pomeroy, Ohio, the fourth child of David Eugene (Gene) Smith and Florence Russell Smith, on Sept. 25, 1915, she lived her early life in Pomeroy. She met and married Kenneth R. Willoughby soon after graduating from Pomeroy High School in 1933. They had three sons, Kenneth E. (Gene), Roger G. R., and Thomas M. (Tom). Times were difﬁcult, and work was hard to ﬁnd. Kenneth was unable to support his family, and Ethel became a single parent. Although work was scarce, Ethel worked at several jobs, including the Works Progress Association (WPA) as a playground supervisor, and the local Kroger grocery store. During World War II, she obtained a position at the Ofﬁce of Price Administration (OPA) and the Ration Board. After the war ended in 1945, she graduated from the Bustin Academy in Columbus, Ohio, and became a licensed beautician. She owned and operated the Ethelene Beauty Salon for several years. She next was employed in the ofﬁce of the Meigs County Probate and Juvenile Court by Judge Harmon O”Brien. She then became the superintendent of the Meigs County Children’s Home, as was a positive inﬂuence on many young lives in that capacity. Upon leaving the Children’s Home, she married Oscar Bauer, a widower, who had two sons, William (Bill) and Robert (Bob), with his late wife. Oscar, Ethel, Bob, Gene, and Tom lived in Oscar’s home, located between Pomeroy and Chester, for several years, during which time Oscar and Ethel’s ﬁrst daughter, Margaret Eleanor, was born. Oscar was highly respected as a marksman, hunter and ﬂy ﬁsherman, and Ethel soon became quite adept at ﬂy ﬁshing herself. Oscar and Ethel then moved to Michigan when Oscar retired. Their life in Michigan was tragically short when Oscar died suddenly, and Ethel, now pregnant with their second child, one again became a single mother. Following Oscar’s interment in Beech Grove Cemetery in Pomeroy, Ethel gave birth to their second daughter, Mary Loiuse, at Holzer Hospital in Gallipolis, Ohio. Ethel then made the courageous decision, as she started the next and longest chapter in her life, to relocate to Phoenix, Arizona. There, she reared her two daughters and, as she once said, blossomed. She became quite accomplished, learned to drive an automobile, became a Born Again Christian, and retired as the head administrative assistant of the mathematics department at Arizona State University. Her second son, Roger, lived with her for many years. Her crowning achievement was undoubtedly how, to the very end, she dedicated her life to her children. Ethel is survived by her children, Kenneth, Roger, Margaret and Mary; grandchildren, Keith Young, David Willoughby, Lisa Downy, Thomas Willoughby II and Beth Clark. She has many great and several great great grandchildren. Ethel was preceded in death by her parents; her youngest son, Thomas; two stepsons, William and Robert; and her ﬁve siblings, Eleanor R., Mildred R., Florence L., Eugene R. and Dinah C. May she rest in peace. A grave side service and burial will be in Beech Grove Cemetery, Pomeroy, Ohio, at the convenience of the family.

And who can blame them? If you’re looking for allies for your cause, that’s the narrative you want Mary C. — one that sets up clear-cut heroes Curtis and villains, especially with budget Contributing director Mick Mulvaney, sent from columnist central casting and all but twirling a mustache as he says, “We can’t spend money on programs just because they sound good,” or “There’s no demonstrable evidence” that after-school programs that also feed children are actually “helping kids do better at school.” But in general, who does not favor food and companionship for the needy and elderly? Who would not react with shock at the thought that these body- and soul-ﬁlling interactions might cease? That’s your headline, if not the whole story. Deeper into the news of the budget proposal that the president says delivers on campaign promises, a quieter, not so full-throated, dissent pushed back against threats to eliminate funding for all manner of arts and culture programs, including the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Yes, leaders of those “But what would organizations and those throughout the country that be the cost of beneﬁt from some federal such rationing, funding have pointed out no matter that the money allocated — how rational it $148 million each for the NEA and NEH, the CPB’s seems?” $445 million and $230 million for museum and library services — is a tiny fraction of the total budget. They have pointed out that money goes not just to plays and artwork that puzzle and sometimes offend, but also to art education for children or creative therapy for veterans ﬁghting post-traumatic stress disorder. The money extends to rural areas far from urban centers, with federal dollars the incentive for matching state and donated funds. In The Washington Post, Danielle Allen noted that NEH funds also preserve Americans’ shared history by digitizing founding documents and the papers of Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Abraham Lincoln, Eleanor Roosevelt and more. An open letter from Lincoln Center read: “In American cities and towns, arts institutions and districts are breathing life into neighborhoods — attracting investment, spurring development, fueling innovation, and creating jobs. Arts and culture help power the U.S. economy at the astounding level of $704.2 billion each year.” But when most people think arts and humanities, it usually conjures something a little snooty, out of reach and not at all essential. Cue video of the Broadway “Hamilton” cast, with the approval of audience members who have paid hundreds of dollars for a ticket, lecturing Vice President Mike Pence, and it certainly conﬁrms a stereotype. Truly, though, as someone who has sat in those orchestra seats — and that’s a show that needs no help surviving — the road there was paved with more than a few federal dollars. That money may have been a drop in the bucket, but it was also an investment, and has made all the difference for folks who have continued to give back. The Enoch Pratt Free Library in Baltimore, whose neighborhood and main branch I knew by heart, offered not just books but also ﬁlms and records and quiet rooms to just sit, read and dream. Today’s libraries are often the only place to brush up on computer skills or apply for that next job. When, as a college student, I tutored Upward Bound high schoolers whose college dreams were challenged by tight ﬁnances and homes where neither parent had earned a degree, classes were supplemented with trips to museums and the theater. “Two Gentlemen of Verona,” a musical that cast Shakespeare through a contemporary lens, was an exciting teaching tool that complemented the English grammar and literature we discussed. Those young people and others who followed, who went on to college and graduate school, still might not be enough to save the embattled U.S. Department of Education, which administers Upward Bound. A budget is by deﬁnition about how much can be carved away. So it’s understandable that a society would prioritize defense, say, above a museum exhibit, and schools would emphasize reading and arithmetic while eliminating arts programs that enrich and inspire through a lifetime and are awfully difﬁcult to measure. But what would be the cost of such rationing, no matter how rational it seems? After performing for students who learned See ART | 5A THEIR VIEW Who really wrote ‘Arsenic and Old Lace’? One of the most enjoyable of experiences I’ve had came in the summer and fall of 1996 when I was part of the company of a production of the classic stage comedy “Arsenic and Old Lace” at the Ariel Theatre. The show, co-directed by Doug Adkins and Sam Wilson, was presented on successive weekends in late October and early November of that year to coincide with the celebration of Halloween; the dark to sometimes pitchblack humor of the play blended perfectly with the autumnal aura of ghosts and ghoulies. For those who saw and recall our enactment, I hope they enjoyed it, even if they had seen “Arsenic and Old Lace” in other theatrical venues, the 1944 movie version starring Cary Grant or the various TV adaptations produced over the years. The plot: two loveable but dotty maiden aunts named Abby and Martha Brewster residing in Brooklyn are widely known for their charitable endeavors, which the world at large has no idea extends to putting lonely male boarders of theirs out of their misery with the old family recipe for elderberry wine. Their tranquil existence forever changes one afternoon with the arrival of two nephews — one, Mortimer, a snarky theater critic about to embark on marriage with literally the girl next door; the other, Jonathan, a homicidal maniac seeking a hideout. “As a boy I couldn’t wait to escape from this house,” Jonathan reﬂects in his ﬁrst scene. “And now I’m glad to escape back into it.” Our Abby and Martha were played by, respectively, Josie Bapst and Rosalee Walker, Mortimer by Doug Adkins and Jonathan by Robert Dean Gordon.

But for now Mennonite college the inﬂuence of the in Kansas during the producers on the script early ’20s, Kesselring offers pretty convincing composed a melodrama evidence that they transformed the work into the success it became. Kesselring, a fairly proliﬁc writer, produced a total of 12 plays during his career, but after “Arsenic and Old Lace” ended its original New York run in June 1944 with a record of more than 1,400 performances, he only saw two more of those plays get on Broadway. One of them, “Four Twelves Are 48,” sank from view after two performances and was labeled by one Big Apple daily as “the ﬁrst new bad play of 1951.” Still, Kesselring presumably lived comfortably enough on his royalties from “Arsenic and Old Lace,” a perennial for community theater and high school senior productions, until his passing in 1967 at 65. And indeed, it was a production of the classic laugh-getter at River Valley High School about a decade after our Ariel experience that brought it all back for me, if only for a few moments. Co-directed by Josie Bapst, one of our version’s cast members, and Cindy Graham, I joined in on the rehearsal while working up material for a newspaper story about the RVHS presentation, which Josie and Cindy set in the 1980s. Surprisingly, I still remembered some of my dialogue, and the play itself continues to crack me up to this day. So in the end, I guess it really doesn’t matter except for history who wrote “Arsenic and Old Lace” — it’s still a riot. P.S.: My thanks to Amber Gillenwater of Bossard Memorial Library for aiding me with the microﬁlm research for this piece, and to Josie Bapst for information on the RVHS production.

At approximately 11:51 a.m. a prisoner, who escaped custody while serving a sentence at the Gallia County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce Work Release Center, was taken into custody by the Gallia County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce. Sheriff Matt Champlin said, “Our agency received several tips from the public, who recognized Michelle Myers from our press release.” Based on this information, ofﬁcers ﬂooded the area and quickly located Myers walking on State Route 554 in the Kyger area. “This is another great example of how law enforcement and the public have been communicating and working together to solve crimes quickly and efﬁciently,” said Champlin. “Ms. Myers has been transported to the Gallia County Jail for incarceration. Additional charges have been ﬁled on Ms. Myers for her escape and we will see to it that Ms. Myers is held accountable for her actions.” Over the past year, deputies have contented with three inmates reportedly attempting to escape police custody. A woman escaped the Gallia Jail in August 2016 before being recovered within minutes by the security deputy in front of the Gallia Courthouse. A similar incident occurred in January 2017 and with the most recent at the work release center. According to Champlin, while the ofﬁce does the best it can while containing inmates an aging jail has proven to be a challenge for area law enforcement as it attempts to keep up with the ever growing criminal element. Champlin said the work release center in Cheshire contains non-violent offenders who are often tasked with activities like picking up dumped trash in the county. “Speaking to the work release center, the people there have the ability to walk out at any point,” said Champlin. “The doors aren’t locked. It is a commitment. People who have jobs and need to go to work can or its a beneﬁt to the public that we can take inmates who are up there who are serving their commitments who don’t have jobs and come out and do things like trash details.” Those who fail to keep up with their work release commitments are reviewed for further discipline. “Our technology and our (jail) facility is outdated,” said Champlin. “It is what it is. Our security down here is good and our doors are good but it’s well passed its time to revisit (upgrades). Financially, the county is not at the opportunity where it can fund a new jail at this time.” THOUGHT FOR TODAY Lawsuit are yet to be determined.

In effect, the commission is getting “lawyered up” for the lawsuit without having to invest a dime, hoping for a payoff which could recoup the losses they feel the county has absorbed due to this epidemic. “This (opioid) problem got us to this point,” Doolittle said.

Meyers explained that the traditional academic model has been in place since the 1700’s, and it was time to reevaluate how the education system works. With SODA in place students have the opportunity to take classes that they likely would not have had before. SODA offers different language classes, ecology, advanced courses in math and science, history, and many others that students can take, regardless of their enrollment in a traditional school, and still participate in all extra-curricular activities. “If a student has a full schedule with regular academic classes but wants to be more involved in the music program, they can work with a guidance counselor and take history or math online,” said Lori Bevan, online coordinator for SODA. If a student is only taking classes online they are still encouraged to be involved in sports, dances, and other school social events. The program is not only designed to help students that do not learn well in a traditional setting, but enable all students to achieve more by offering a different path through high school. The staff in the administration ofﬁce are excited about the future of education in Gallia County. While SODA is still in its infancy, they believe they have made large strides forward in serving the youth of our community. 7 (WOUB) 8 (WCHS) Reach Morgan McKinniss at 740-446-2342 or mmckinniss@civitasmedia. com 10 (WBNS) 11 (WVAH) 12 (WVPB) 13 (WOWK) CABLE 6:30 SUNDAY, MARCH 26 7 PM 7:30 8 PM 8:30 (3:00) PGA Golf Match Play Little Big Shots "New BigShot "The Princess and Championship (L) Sheriff in Town" the Hot Dog" (N) (3:00) PGA Golf Match Play Little Big Shots "New BigShot "The Princess and Championship (L) Sheriff in Town" the Hot Dog" (N) ABC 6 News ABC World America's Funniest Home Once Upon a Time "Page at 6:00 p.m. News Videos 23" (N) Command Performance The programs that have been the most popular so far this pledge drive are re-aired.

(AP) — Notre Dame delivered on one promise by coach Muffet McGraw to look different without injured Brianna Turner, shifting from lobbing the ball inside to their star forward to throwing up perimeter shots with success. The strategy certainly suited sophomore guard Arike Ogunbowale, who thrived from all over the court to help the top-seeded Irish maintain their dominance against Ohio State. Ogunbowale had a career-high 32 points, Lindsay Allen added 16 and Notre Dame easily beat Ohio State 99-76 on Friday night in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. Playing ﬁve days after losing Turner to a seasonending left knee injury, the top-seeded Irish posted their third-highest output this season while also scoring the most points against the Buckeyes. Ogunbowale seemed almost unstoppable in making 11 of 22 from the ﬁeld to top her previous high by two points. “It’s evident that we don’t have Bri in the paint, so it’s spaced out a little bit more,” said Ogunbowale, who made four 3s. “Coach told us to shoot our shot and be conﬁdent in what we were trying to do, and that’s what we did.” Besides Allen, the Irish got 14 points and a career-high nine rebounds from freshman forward Erin Boley, a Kentucky native who started in Turner’s place. The Irish tied one season best with 12 3-pointers on a season-high 24 attempts and made See OSU | 2B OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Monday, March 27 Baseball Wahama at Waterford, 5 p.m. Belpre at Eastern, 5 p.m. Meigs at Jackson, 5 p.m. Gallia Academy at River Valley, 5 p.m. South Gallia at Southern, 5 p.m. Grace Christian at Hannan, 5:30 p.m. Softball Wahama at Waterford, 5 p.m. Belpre at Eastern, 5 p.m. Meigs at Jackson, 5 p.m. Gallia Academy at River Valley, 5 p.m. South Gallia at Southern, 5 p.m. Tennis Nitro at Point Pleasant, 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 28 Baseball Southern at Wahama, 5 p.m. Eastern at South Gallia, 5 p.m. Oak Hill at River Valley, 5 p.m. Hannan at Teays Val- ley Christian, 5:30 p.m. Gallia Academy at Point Pleasant, 6 p.m. Meigs at Waterford, 5 p.m. Softball Southern at Wahama, 5 p.m. Eastern at South Gallia, 5 p.m. Oak Hill at River Valley, 5 p.m. Hannan at Teays Valley Christian, 5:30 p.m. Winﬁeld at Point Pleasant, 5:30 p.m. Tennis Point Pleasant at Sissonville, 4:30 p.m. Track and Field Wahama, Eastern, Southern at Meigs, 4:45 p.m. South Gallia at Vinton County, 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 29 Baseball Spring Valley at Point Pleasant, 7 p.m. Softball Point Pleasant at Sissonville, 5:30 Tennis Portsmouth Clay at Gallia Academy, 4:30 Poca at Point Pleasant, 4:30 Paul Boggs | OVP Sports Point Pleasant shortstop Carter Smith (16) forces out Wahama’s Dalton Kearns (20) at second base during Thursday night’s non-league baseball game at Point Pleasant High School. Looking on for Point Pleasant is Austin Richardson. Big Blacks hold off Wahama for 1st win By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com POINT PLEASANT, W. Va. — Looks like the Big Blacks still have Wahama’s number. Truth be told, it’s been a slow start to the season for young Point Pleasant —having lost its opening three games. The Big Blacks are adjusting to the graduation of 11 seniors with several inexperienced varsity players, and were outscored 36-3 in their opening three tilts with a pair of decisive shutouts. However, Point Pleasant plays some of its best baseball against its Mason County archrival — and did so once again on the home ﬁeld on a chilly Thursday night. Point Pleasant pushed out to a 4-0 lead through the opening three innings, then fended off the White Falcons for a 5-4 victory. While the Big Blacks are now 1-3, Wahama — the two-time defending Class A state champion — is 1-1. The White Falcons mercy-ruled Parkersburg Catholic 12-2 on Tuesday in their season opener. When Wahama wasn’t going down in order against Big Blacks’ ace Abe Stearns, they did at least threaten, stranding runners on the corners in the second inning — before scoring two runs apiece in the fourth and sixth frames. But both times, the senior Stearns — who threw 110 pitches and tossed the opening six innings for the win — escaped the jam by stranding a pair of White Falcon runners. In the fourth, with Wahama trailing 4-2, Stearns stranded runners at second and third after inducing a 6-3 groundout. In the sixth, with Point Pleasant leading 5-4, Stearns stranded Falcons on the corners, thanks to an inning-ending strikeout. Carter Smith secured the save in the seventh — inducing a pair of 6-3 groundouts, sandwiched around a walk to Dalton Kearns and a ﬂyout to right by Philip Hoffman. Kearns advanced into scoring position for the game-tying run, but was left there. Indeed, in part with Stearns on the mound, Thursday night was the Big Blacks’ best showing —by far. “Our guys played well tonight. The ﬁrst win of the year is always hardest to get,” said PPHS acting head coach Eric Roberts. “I thought Abe Stearns threw the ball well for six innings and Carter Smith came in and shut it down. All in all, we played pretty well tonight. Hopefully, this one gets the ﬁre started for us and we’ll see about next week.” Roberts was serving in the head coaching capacity for the second consecutive contest, as Andrew Blain was serving the second of a three-game suspension — following his ejection on Monday night at Nitro. Stearns actually allowed only two Wahama hits —a leadoff single by Kearns in the fourth and a Tyler Bumgarner single in the sixth. He retired the White Falcons 1-2-3 in the ﬁrst, third and ﬁfth frames, and only allowed one earned run with ﬁve walks and seven strikeouts. Wahama took advantage of three Point Pleasant errors for its four runs. “We’ve come down here before and we just laid down and gave up, but tonight we battled back and scratched and got it to 5-4. Had we done a few other things right, we might have gotten a couple more,” said Wahama coach Tom Cullen. “We had some chances to win it there, and that’s all you can ask for. We did some good things there at the end. We put the ball in the play, and Abe (Stearns) is a good pitcher. It’s been a little fast for us here early, but we’ll try and get caught up to that. I also thought both Nyles (Riggs) and Dalton (Kearns) pitched well.” The Big Blacks, conversely, cranked out 10 hits — including Stearns and Alec Smith, who both went 2-for-3. Roberts said Stearns’ mastery made the offensive effort appear easier. “It felt good to get those ﬁrst four runs. We put some hits together. After we put some hits together, things started ﬂowing for us. Not just in the batter’s box, but also in the ﬁeld,” said Roberts. “We kept the lead, and Abe (Stearns) threw 110 pitches, so I’m sure he will feel it tomorrow.” Austin Richardson led off the Big Blacks’ initial at-bat by being hit by a pitch, then Tyler Mitchell managed a two-out single for the 1-0 lead. In the second, Miles Williams led off with a walk, then crossed on an Alec Smith triple, as Smith scored on a Sam Pinkerton RBI-groundout. The Big Blacks then made it 4-0 in the third — when Josh Wamsley drew a leadoff walk, Stearns singled, and Brody Jeffers drove in Wamsley with a single. Pinkerton and Carter Smith singled in the fourth, but Point Pleasant didn’t score again until the ﬁfth for its 5-2 edge. Stearns singled to lead off, and eventually scored on a passed ball. Williams with a double and Alec Smith with a single in the ﬁfth, and Richardson with a single in the sixth, amounted the remaining Big Black basehits. Nyles Riggs was the starting and losing pitcher for Wahama, working the ﬁrst four innings and allowing ﬁve earned runs on seven hits and three walks with three strikeouts. Kearns came in for the See BLACKS | 2B �SPORTS 2B Sunday, March 26, 2017 OSU From page 1B 19 of 20 free throws for a thorough win. Notre Dame (33-3) also used a 30-point third quarter to build an 80-65 lead that wasn’t seriously threatened as it reached Sunday’s Lexington Regional ﬁnal against No. 2 seed Stanford, a 77-66 winner over No. 3 seed Texas. “Our young players just really stepped up in such a big game,” McGraw said. “I thought Erin played the best game of the season, Arike had a career high in a huge game without Bri. It was a struggle for us this week trying to overcome that, and I’m just so proud of the resilience of this team.” Kelsey Mitchell had 18 points for No. 5 seed Ohio State (28-7), which was outrebounded 42-30 and outscored 38-34 inside. Big picture Ohio State: The Buckeyes initially shot well and handled their business inside but couldn’t match Notre Dame’s pace and aggression, especially on the boards. While their bench earned a 34-13 advantage, it couldn’t make up the Irish’s collective effort. “Any mistake that we made, they made us pay for,” coach Kevin McGuff after facing McGraw, his former boss. “They executed on offense extremely well and shot the ball well. They were clearly the better team today, and that’s what we aspire to look like as a program.” Notre Dame: The Irish meshed hustle, crisp passing and a go-for-broke shooting approach from outside to make up for the height disadvantage created by Turner’s injury. Boley’s second start in three games was her best and helped her team establish the outside game it needed for a win that showed how deep the Irish are. Marina Mabrey had 14 points and Jackie Young 13 as six scored in double ﬁgures. Kathryn Westbeld had 11 rebounds and 10 points, giving Turner a lot to like as she watched from the bench. Happy homecoming Boley gave family and friends a lot to cheer about as the Hodgenville, Kentucky, native played arguably the best game in just her ninth start. Four of her ﬁve baskets on 10 attempts came from long range, while her rebounding helped Notre Dame establish an inside presence. Not bad considering the void she had to ﬁll. “We came out really focused,” said Boley, a two-time Associated Press Kentucky Girls Player of the Year. “Everybody was pretty loose and focused, and I thought we did a good job of coming out prepared and ready to play.” Knights Sunday Times-Sentinel Lady Knights top Lincoln County By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Rolling right along. The Point Pleasant girls tennis team remained unbeaten on the season after posting a 7-0 victory over visiting Lincoln County on Thursday night during a non-conference match at The Courts in Mason County. The host Lady Knights (2-0) won each of their seven contests by at least four games, and the Lady Panthers mustered at least two game wins in only two of the seven matches played. Olivia Pyles had the toughest match of the evening, but the junior still mustered an 8-4 win in ﬁrst singles against Candace Smith. Junior Bailey Barnett defeated Madison Bowman in second singles by an 8-1 count, while classmate Danielle Marcum earned an 8-1 victory over Anna Smith in third singles. Sophomore Sarah Deem also posted a shutout over Haley Robinette with an 8-0 decision in fourth singles. Pyles and Barnett scored an 8-3 win over Smith and Bowman in ﬁrst doubles, while Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Point Pleasant junior Bailey Barnett returns a serve during a March 21 girls tennis match against Spring Valley at The Courts in Point Pleasant, W.Va.

Brady’s 2017 jersey went missing from the Patriots’ locker room after the team’s win over the Atlanta Falcons on Feb. 5, touching off an investigation stretching from Boston to the Mexican border. Mexican authorities searched the property of Mexican media executive Martin Mauricio Ortega, where they found the jersey, along with a Brady jersey that disappeared after the 2015 Super Bowl. A Denver Broncos helmet also was found. Ortega has not been charged in the case and has not commented. An FBI spokeswoman declined to comment on the investigation. In a statement Thursday, Patriots owner Robert Kraft said he looks forward to giving the jerseys to Brady when he returns to New England. Kraft thanked the FBI, Mexican authorities and other law enforcement agencies involved in the investigation. “It is another example of the importance of teamwork and what can be accomplished when everyone works together,” Kraft said. The FBI released a photo of the jerseys being held by Harold Shaw, special agent in charge of the FBI Boston Division, and Col. Richard McKeon of the Massachusetts State Place. Kraft is standing between the two jerseys and behind the Patriots’ ﬁve Super Bowl trophies. “We know how much this means to the Patriots and football fans everywhere, and we are honored to be able to bring these jerseys back to Foxboro,” Shaw said. Colleagues of Ortega said he went to this year’s Super Bowl in Houston as a working journalist but spent the week collecting selﬁes and autographs from football players. Ortega quit his job as director of the tabloid La Prensa earlier on March 14, two days after Brady’s jerseys were found. OVP SPORTS BRIEFS Bengals’ Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones faces 3 misdemeanor charges Meigs football golf tournament CINCINNATI (AP) — Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones faces three misdemeanor charges, including assault, but no longer is being charged with a felony for a January confrontation with hotel security guards, police and a nurse. A felony charge of harassment with a bodily substance, for allegedly spitting at a nurse, was dismissed at the prosecuting attorney’s request, Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters said in a statement Wednesday. The felony charge carries a potential sentence of six to 12 months in jail upon conviction. Deters said the misdemeanors also include disorderly conduct and obstructing ofﬁcial business. Those charges will be referred to Hamilton County Municipal Court in Cincinnati for prosecution by a city prosecutor, according to Deters. The 33-year-old veteran football player, whose career has been marked by off-theﬁeld legal issues, was jailed early Jan. 3. Authorities said Jones tangled with hotel security late at night. Cincinnati police said he pushed a security employee and poked him in the eye, then kicked and head-butted as ofﬁcers tried to put him into a police vehicle. They later released a video showing Jones in the back of a police vehicle MASON, W.Va. — The Meigs football team will sponsor a golf tournament on Saturday, April 22, at the Riverside Golf Course in Mason County.

Surveillance video released Wednesday shows Jones acting aggressively during his intake process. He apologized through his attorneys and the Bengals also apologized for his behavior. Jones said after his Jan. 4 release from jail that he shouldn’t have been arrested and that the case didn’t make sense. Deters had delayed action in the case while Jones received treatment for alcohol and anger issues. The prosecutor’s statement said his ofﬁce received a letter from Jones’ treating physician indicating Jones is doing well in treatment. No further information on Jones’ treatment will be released by the prosecutor’s ofﬁce. The Hamilton County Justice Center nurse who was the subject of the felony charge has been pursuing civil remedies against Jones, according to Deters. He said the felony charge will not be pursued, “given a possible civil remedy.” A Bengals spokesman said the team has no comment because the case is continuing.

Jones will be subject to potential NFL discipline after the case is resolved. The former West Virginia star was the sixth overall pick in the 2005 draft by the Tennessee Titans. His off-ﬁeld problems started with a strip club melee in Las Vegas in 2007. He pleaded the equivalent of no contest to a misdemeanor charge. Jones was blamed for instigating violence that led to someone else shooting two club employees, one of whom was left paralyzed from the waist down. He was ordered to pay more than $12.4 million in damages. The NFL suspended Jones for the 2007 season. He was traded to the Cowboys, and was suspended again in 2009 over an alcohol-related altercation with a bodyguard that the Cowboys provided. After sitting out the 2009 season, he signed with the Bengals as a free agent and played ﬁve games before suffering a neck injury. He missed half of the following season while recovering from neck surgery and a hamstring injury. Jones played in at least 14 games over each of the past ﬁve seasons, becoming one of their top cornerbacks and kick returners. He was chosen for the Pro Bowl as an alternate in 2015.

In what promises to be a busy annual meeting next week in Phoenix that will include discussing the Raiders’ potential relocation from Oakland to Las Vegas, the 32 owners also will vote on changing the mechanics on replay reviews and other items intended to reduce downtime during games. The Eagles proposed four rules changes, including abolishing the leaping techniques that league football operations director Troy Vincent said Thursday Jae C. Hong | AP New England Patriots’ Shea McClellin (58) leaps over the line of scrimmage in an attempt to block a kick during the first half of the NFL Super Bowl 51 football game Feb. 5 in Houston. NFL owners will consider proposals next week to cut regular-season overtime from 15 minutes to 10; eliminate players leaping over the line on kick plays; and expansion of coaches’ challenges and what can be reviewed by officials. “don’t belong in the game.” Seattle and Buffalo co-authored a proposal allowing a coach to challenge any ofﬁciating decision, whether a foul is called or not. “That is a signiﬁcant change to our current replay rule and it is something that will be on the ﬂoor and will be debated next week,” NFL ofﬁciating chief Dean Blandino said. Another major change would be the reduction of overtime in-season; the extra period in the playoffs would remain at 15 minutes. The powerful competition committee, of which Vincent and Blandino are members, believed it’s a player safety issue, noting that number of snaps for games going to OT — especially deep into the overtime — is excessive. Especially if a team has a quick turnaround. “We don’t know where a team is going to be playing the next week, it could be four days later,” said committee chairman Rich McKay, president of the Atlanta Falcons. “We felt we should put an end to it. We don’t think it will lead to more ties. Could it? It could, but we are not concerned with that.” As for changing the format of overtime to ensure both teams always get a possession — a popular topic after how the Super Bowl ended — Blandino said the league’s wants to keep the element of sudden death in the extra period. The “leaper rule” has taken some priority among competition committee members, the players’ union and coaches. Vincent said coaches have begun scheming how to defense it, which can “create a real safety issue.” “It is really in the best interest of the game” to outlaw leaping on kicks,” Vincent added. McKay noted that the NCAA is in the process of passing a similar ban on the technique. During the meetings that run from Sunday to Wednesday, the teams will be shown plays the competition committee believes should result in suspensions or ejections. Game ofﬁcials already have had the leeway to eject players, but it rarely has happened; there were three in 2016. “They don’t happen very often, let’s give the players credit,” McKay said. “We have 40,000 plays in a year. We’ll show a tape that will have four or ﬁve plays that would warrant suspension. This is not a widespread situation.” Added Vincent, a former NFL defensive back: “When you see the plays, they are catastrophic. We had two players who did not return for the season. They are highimpact plays that belong out of the game. It will be a real point of emphasis this season.” Ex-Penn State President Spanier convicted over child-sex scandal It is no secret that Southeastern Ohio contains the most beautiful and remote lands that Ohio has to offer.

(AP) — Former Penn State President Graham Spanier was convicted Friday of hushing up child sexual abuse allegations in 2001 against Jerry Sandusky, whose arrest a decade later blew up into a major scandal for the university and led to the ﬁring of beloved football coach Joe Paterno. The jury found Spanier guilty of one misdemeanor count of child endangerment over his handling of a complaint against the retired assistant football coach but acquitted him of conspiracy and a second child endangerment count. Spanier, 68, showed no emotion when the verdict was read after 13 hours of deliberations. He could get up to ﬁve years in prison. His lawyer said he will appeal. The trial centered on how Spanier and two other university administrators handled a complaint by graduate coaching assistant Mike McQueary, who said he reported seeing Sandusky sexually molesting a boy in a team shower in 2001. The three ofﬁcials told Sandusky he could not bring children onto the campus anymore but did not report the matter to police or child welfare authorities. Sandusky was not arrested until 2011, after an anonymous tip led prosecutors to investigate the shower incident. He was convicted the next year of sexually abusing 10 boys and is serving 10 to 30 years behind bars. At least four victims at Sandusky’s trial said they were molested after 2001. “Evil in the form of Jerry Sandusky was allowed to run wild,” prosecutor Patrick Schulte told the jury. 60711071 NEVER LOSE POWER AGAIN!

As someone who can barely keep hanging baskets and a small flower bed alive each spring and summer, the idea of planting and tending to something edible is not only intimidating, but a bit laughable. Since nothing especially rewarding happens within comfort zones, I have decided to move beyond mine and try something new and different this year. Riverfront Lacking any real knowledge Reflections about gardening, my gangrene Jennifer thumb and I decided to turn Walker to the internet for guidance. After reading a few articles, I began to understand what it takes to grow strong vines and healthy fruit. As it turns out, sunlight, water and nutrient rich soil aren’t the only things a tomato plant needs to grow, thrive, and be productive. Even though a plant may appear tall, strong, and full of lush greenery, some of those seemingly robust leaves are imposters, also known as suckers. Although suckers appear harmless, and even healthy, they are incapable of yielding fruit. They steal valuable nutrients and water, selfishly preventing the other tomatoes from reaching their full growth potential. The only way to stop the suckers from damaging the fruit is to remove them. But first, you must identify them. Pruning too aggressively can kill the plant, while inadequate pruning can leave it vulnerable and susceptible to breakage and disease. Just the right amount of pruning allows air circulation and healthy growth. I could go on with all my new-found internet tomato plant knowledge, but I won’t. At some point during my self-education, I had a lightbulb moment. What began as a curiosity about gardening methods turned into an unexpected life lesson. I realized that suckers exist beyond the plant world. Just like those deceptive, healthy looking leaves on the tomato plant, they hide in plain sight, expending energy, draining resources and hampering growth. Real-life suckers, like their tomato plant counterparts, are harmful, difficult to recognize, and must be located and removed. As delicate and uncomfortable as the process may be, we must find and discard them. If we are to cultivate and grow the best, most fruitful parts of ourselves, we must not waste our light and energy on fruitless habits and behaviors. Whether it is the tomato plant, or the choices we make daily, our prosperity depends on how diligently we tend the vine.

The law enforcement agency conducting the criminal investigation, on the conclusion of the investigation, and the prosecuting attorney prosecuting the case, on the conclusion of the prosecution, shall notify the chairperson of the review board of the conclusion. By the first day of April of each year, the person convening the child fatality review board shall prepare and submit to the Ohio department of health a report that summarizes the following information with respect to the child deaths that were reviewed by the review board in the previous calendar year: The cause of death; Factors contributing to death; Age; Sex; Race; The geographic location of death; The year of death. I have already completed this report on behalf of Meigs County as the CFRB Coordinator. The report specifies the number of child deaths that were not reviewed during the previous calendar year. The report includes recommendations for actions that might prevent other deaths, as well as any other information the review board determines should be included. This report is considered public records under section 149.43 of the ORC. Meanwhile, the CFRB submits individual data with respect to each child death review into the national child death review database, which is accessible by the Ohio Department of Health (ODH). The individual data includes the information specified above and any other information the board considers relevant to the review. Individual data related to a child death review that is contained in the national/ODH child death review database is not a public record. On or before the thirtieth day of September of each year, the ODH and the children’s trust fund board jointly prepares and publishes a report organizing and setting forth the data from the national/ODH child death review database, data in all the reports provided by CFRBs in their annual reports for the previous calendar year, and recommendations for any changes to law and policy that might prevent future deaths. The ODH and the children’s trust fund board jointly provide a copy of the report to the governor, the speaker of the house of representatives, the president of the senate, the minority leaders of the house of representatives and the senate, each county or regional CFRB, and each county or regional family and children first council.
