Earlier in the summer it appeared
as though the annual Sternwheel
Festival would not be taking place
this year as the previous committee
decided to cancel the event due to
the lack of volunteers.
In early August came word that
the festival, renamed as the Pomeroy Sternwheel Regatta, would take
place a week later than the original
date and would be organized by the
Pomeroy Eagles.

RIO GRANDE — The
University of Rio Grande and
Rio Grande Community College will host Katie Koestner,
the ﬁrst date rape survivor to
speak out publicly, Sunday at
7 p.m in the Berry Fine and
Performing Arts Center.
Koestner is a reported
national expert on student
safety and teen relationship culture. Her story
made national headlines
in 1990, including a 1991
cover of TIME Magazine,
when the then 18 year-old
college freshman’s case was
dismissed for “lack of evidence.” She is the subject of
an HBO movie and has lectured at over 3,000 schools
in North America. Through
advocacy work and her personal testimony, Koestner
has been inﬂuential to federal student safety legislation
passed on Capitol Hill. She
is also executive director
for several non-proﬁt rape
awareness and survivor advocacy organizations and an
active advocate for date rape
survivors.
According to BBC.com,
Koestner would go through
a hearing at her university
which said it would not allow
her attacker to live in her
residence hall until the end
of the semester. A dean
however suggested Koestner
should give her attacker a
chance as they seemed like
a “nice couple.” Koestner
would eventually write a
letter to a newspaper which
was then subsequently
picked up by the Associated Press before her story
became national news.
The Ofﬁce of Student
Affairs and Redstorm Athletics will host the event. The
presentation is intended to
lead students to consider
what they can do to reduce
sexual violence. The college

MEIGS HEALTH MATTERS

ANNIVERSARIES

Volunteers needed in times of disaster
September is National
Preparedness Month.
The recent threat of
two devastating hurricanes and their damage and wildﬁres in
the Paciﬁc Northwest
reminds us that we DO
need volunteers to help
in the recovery process.
In other areas of public
concern volunteers are
needed also.
For the Meigs County
Health Department
(MCHD) we need 2
types of volunteers:
1. Medically trained
(nurses, doctors) for
large outbreaks where
mass vaccination clinics
are needed, or for large
-scale mass-casualty
incidents (car and train
wrecks, aircraft crashes,
etc.). These incidents
require a large group of
medically-trained people,
to vaccinate or treat people who are victims of
the outbreak or incident.
2. Knowledgeable
volunteers who can read
information to people,
help with forms, park
cars, move materials and
all the other important
tasks necessary for the
response.
These volunteers are
the backbone for per-

used 10 nursing

THEIR VIEW

Scare,
clowns,
scare
The following editorial recently appeared in
the Chicago Tribune:
Confess your greatest phobia:
A) Spiders
B) Snakes
C) Clowns
We can’t provide help to anyone who chooses
icky “A” or wriggling “B,” because we don’t
have space to analyze arachnophobia or ophidiophobia. We’re here to discuss your fear of
clowns.
You are not alone. Clowns are weird. They’re
supposed to be good-natured and silly but, by
design, they are freaks. Just look at the size of
those shoes! Clowns mask their facial appearance with garish grease paint, frozen oversize
smiles and bulbous red noses. They play the role
of tricksters. They manipulate balloons. Some
are mute. Where do they come from? Who does
their hair? No wonder your 4-year-old burst into
tears at the circus.
Then came horror writer Stephen King,
whose novel, “It,” features an evil supernatural
clown named Pennywise. King said he created
Pennywise after asking himself, “What scares
children more than anything else in the world?”
His answer: clowns. Pennywise preys on children.
The movie version of “It” is a current box
ofﬁce hit. That’s bad news for the clown business, whose jolly owner/operators are crying on
the inside. “People had school shows and library
shows that were canceled,” Pam Moody, president of the World Clown Association, told The
Hollywood Reporter, about rising anti-clown
sentiment.
Polls have shown many people don’t like
clowns, or are afraid of them. When two Knox
College researchers did a survey to identify the
creepiest profession, clowns topped the list,
followed by taxidermists, sex shop owners and
funeral directors. Last year, there was a spate of
alleged creepy-clown sightings: people dressed
as clowns jumping out of the shadows, lurking
menacingly near schools. It was probably all just
pranks, but even McDonald’s sidelined Ronald
McDonald to protect his image. Clowns are
under siege.
The history of clowns provides some important context that may assuage fears. Going back
to at least ancient Rome, clowning ﬁgures were
jesters and pranksters who teased the populace
and spoke impolite truths. “They have always
been an ambiguous ﬁgure,” Benjamin Radford,
author of the book “Bad Clowns,” told the BBC.
“It’s a mistake to ask, when did clowns go bad?”
In the opera “Pagliacci” (“Clowns”), Canio the
clown kills his wife.
In 20th-century America, clowns went
G-rated, becoming entertainers at circuses and
birthday parties. They reached the pinnacle as
beloved celebrities. But the clown ﬁgure’s striking dichotomy between wholesome and strange
made the character an obvious target to subvert
in pop culture. The fact that serial killer John
Wayne Gacy performed at parties as Pogo the
Clown upped the profession’s creepiness factor by about a thousand. This season of the FX
show “American Horror Story: Cult” features
killer clowns. And don’t forget the Joker character from “Batman,” who was especially terrifying when portrayed by Heath Ledger in “The
Dark Knight.”
So, the verdict on clowns: inherently creepy
… or victims of bad publicity? A bit of both, we
think. Clowns are part of a hallowed entertainment tradition. Clowns can be fun. But they
leave some people feeling uneasy. And be especially careful when one picks up a pie.

THEIR VIEW

Celebrating diverse ideas
Two local gatherings
that wrap up Sunday
have a common basis
in history, but celebrate
widely different ideas and
thought in our society.
Not a bad thing as both
attract area residents and
visitors, and expose them
to not only what these
events commemorate
but provide everyone a
glimpse into a heritage
that has shaped national
and regional consciousness.
The Emancipation
Proclamation Celebration at the Bob Evans
Farm marks the freeing of
slaves by President Abraham Lincoln that became
effective Jan. 1, 1863, but
which had been put on
paper by the 16th chief
executive of the United
States the previous September. In Gallia County,
Emancipation has been
celebrated continuously
since the year it took
force, a unique and historic distinction certainly
deserving of more than a
brief notice on the ﬁnal
weekend of this summer.
For a visit to Emancipation is a journey into the
experience of generations
of individuals who seized
their sudden freedom to
make lives for themselves,
worship and establish a
culture of their own.
They confronted
hardships, hostility and
rejection, but became a
part of our nation, with
an inﬂuence that cannot
be denied. These are the
factors the organizers
of Emancipation have
brought to each celebration so that all may learn
and ponder the lessons
the proclamation has
offered us. For declar-

Veterans Service
Commission President

of the signiﬁcance of the
Missing Man Table set
in honor to remember
those who had been
taken as prisoners of
war or gone missing in
action.
“We would like to
take the opportunity to
remember the incredible
cost paid by those
who gave all to help
preserve our freedoms
that we enjoy,” said
Fenderbosch,”those
gallant who gave for
this country. Yet, it is
also our fallen comrades
through which we are
reminded of those
whose fate is still
unknown, those listed
as missing in action
and as prisoners of
war. Seventy-eightthousand Americans are
unaccounted for from
World War II, 8,100 from

Jackson previously
served as a military

“To honor our POWs,
what can we do?” said

Jackson. “Pay attention
to this important point.
Anybody who is a
combat veteran, POW
or whatever, the most
important thing for
us to do is not talk to
them but listen to them.
There is great healing in
telling your story over

every way to understand
what people go through
and to listen to what
they go through. It
is horrendous what a
person goes through as a
prisoner of war.”
Jackson in the past
has also served as a
counselor to individuals

who have suffered
through trauma and
addiction in his role as a
chaplain.
“When you read about
these fellas (POWs
and MIA) and their
situation, they had
nothing,” said Jackson.
“Their desire and
their spirit and their
willingness to serve and
their wanting to live
carried them through.
Listen to them and any

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Sunday, Sept.
17, the 260th day of 2017.
There are 105 days left in
the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On September 17,
1967, The Doors
appeared on “The Ed
Sullivan Show” on CBSTV for the ﬁrst — and
last — time. The group
was banned from the
program after Jim Morrison ignored a producer’s
request to change the
line, “Girl, we couldn’t
get much higher” to “Girl,
we couldn’t get much better” while singing “Light
My Fire” during the live
broadcast.
On this date:
In 1787, the Constitution of the United States
was completed and signed
by a majority of delegates
attending the Constitutional Convention in
Philadelphia.
In 1862, more than
3,600 men were killed in
the Civil War Battle of
Antietam (an-TEE’-tum)
in Maryland.
In 1937, the likeness of
President Abraham Lincoln’s head was dedicated
at Mount Rushmore.
In 1939, the Soviet
Union invaded Poland
during World War II,
more than two weeks
after Nazi Germany had
launched its assault.
In 1947, James V. Forrestal was sworn in as
the ﬁrst U.S. Secretary of
Defense.
In 1957, two male attorneys “stood in” as actress
Sophia Loren and producer Carlo Ponti were married by proxy in Ciudad
Juarez (see-yoo-DAHD’
wahr-EHZ’), Mexico.
(Legal issues later forced
an annulment; the couple
wed in Sevres, France, in
1966.)
In 1971, citing health
reasons, Supreme Court
Justice Hugo Black, 85,

retired. (Black, who was
succeeded by Lewis F.
Powell Jr., died eight
days after making his
announcement.)
In 1978, after meeting at Camp David,
Israeli Prime Minister
Menachem Begin (menAH’-kem BAY’-gihn)
and Egyptian President
Anwar Sadat signed a
framework for a peace
treaty.
In 1987, the city of Philadelphia, birthplace of the
U.S. Constitution, threw
a big party to celebrate
the 200th anniversary of
the historic document; in
a speech at Independence
Hall, President Ronald
Reagan acclaimed the
framing of the Constitution as a milestone “that
would profoundly and forever alter not just these
United States but the
world.”

From page 1A

Brandon Mitchem, principal at Addaville Elementary
presented both students with
awards for their work.
“We really miss these guys
at Addaville and I’m sure they
will do really well at the middle

school,” stated Mitchem. Both
students are now at River Valley Middle School.
Two other students from
River Valley High School were
recognized for their merits as
well. Brea McClung teaches in
the history department at River
Valley High School and had
two students score a ﬁve on
the Advanced Placement History test last spring. AP tests

are scored 1-5, with ﬁve being
the best possible score. Sharla
Moody and Alyssa Bennett
earned ﬁve out of ﬁve on the
AP Exam.
“Not many people get a ﬁve.
Before this year we only had
one other person at River Valley get one,” said McClung. “A
couple of these girls may be
going to the Ivy league for college.”

McClung highly praised them
both for their achievements in
academia.
“Its been a joy to have them
for two years. Not only are they
smart, these kids are kind, they
work hard, they participate in
our schools, they are always
there to help other kids,” said
McClung. “That to me, that
character and relationship with
other people is actually more

important than a ﬁve could be.”
“These are all names we have
seen before,” stated Meyers.
“I am sure this will not be last
time we recognize them at a
board meeting, they are certainly on the right track,” Meyers said. “You’re in the record
books guys.”

Marauders rally
past Vinton
County, 28-21
By Dave Harris
For Ohio Valley Publishing

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — Cory Cox hit Bailey
Carauthers from seven yards out with 28 seconds
left to give the Meigs Marauders a thrilling 28-21
win over the Vinton County Vikings Friday night
at Farmers Bank Stadium.
The Marauders drove 54 yards in less than two
minutes for the winning score. That was after the
Vikings outstanding senior quarterback Naylan
Yates hit Hunter Nichols with a 52-yard scoring
toss at the 2:08 mark to give the Vikings the lead.
Three plays into the second period, the Marauders took the early lead when Cox hit Cole Adams
from seven yards out. The kick was blocked, but
the Marauders held a 6-0 lead with 10:59 in the
half.
The Vikings took a 7-6 lead into the locker room
at the half when Yates scrambled out of pressure
and hit Lincoln Hayes wide open over the middle
for 58 yards and the score. Eli Downs added the
extra points and the Vikings went on top 7-6 with
1:12 left in the half.
The Vikings took a short-lived lead in the third
period when Yates hit Donnie Stevens with a
10-yard touchdown pass. Downs added the extra
points and the Vikings were on top 14-7 with 5:42
left.
But on the ensuing kickoff, sophomore Weston
Baer ﬁeld the ball at the 25 on the far sideline, cut
across the ﬁeld and turned it up the near sideline
going untouched 75 yards for the score.
Cox hit Adams for the extra points and Meigs
had pulled even with the Vikings 14-all with 5:27
in the third period. Lane Cullums capped off an
11-play, 69-yard drive with a three-yard burst, giving the Marauders a 20-14 advantage with 3:15
left in regulation.
But just 1:14 and ﬁve plays later, the Vikings
struck again.
Despite good coverage, Yates hit Hunter Nichols
from 52 yards out for the score. Downs added the
extra points and Vinton County held a 21-20 lead
with 2:08 left.

MERCERVILLE, Ohio
— The difference was in
the defense.
South Gallia scored 14
points off of three Manchester turnovers and
never trailed Friday night
during a hard-fought
34-28 victory in a Week 4
non-conference matchup
at Rebel Field in Gallia
County.
The host Rebels (2-2)
ﬁnished the night plus-2
in turnover differential
and made the most of all
three of their takeaways,
but two of those extra
possessions proved quite
beneﬁcial over a ﬁve-minute span between the second and third quarters.
Leading 14-13 with just
over two minutes remaining in the ﬁrst half, South
Gallia sophomore Austin
Day recovered a fumble at
the Manchester 13 with
1:51 left.
The Red and Gold
needed just two plays
to cash in on their good
fortunes as Jeffrey Sheets
hit Jacob Birtcher on
a successful 15-yard
halfback pass. Sviatoslav ‘Savat’ Hryhorenko
added the successful PAT
boot, allowing the Rebels
to take a 21-13 cushion
with 1:10 left before the
break.
The Greyhounds (1-3)
started the second half
with possession, but
fumbled on the opening
play of their ﬁrst drive.
Day recovered his second
fumble of the night, giving SGHS the ball at the
guests 28 just 11 seconds
into the third period.
The Rebels marched
28 yards in ﬁve plays,
increasing their lead to
28-13 following a 3-yard
scamper by Sheets at the
9:49 mark of the third —
the hosts largest lead of
the night.
After both teams
traded punts, Manchester
put together an 8-play,
54-yard drive that resulted in a touchdown following a 4-yard run by Shaun
Gould. Nick Woolard

a Northup 1-yard run,
allowing the hosts to
reclaim a 14-7 cushion
with 8:37 remaining in
the ﬁrst half.

with a 73-yard run by
Woolard. South Gallia’s
Justin Butler blocked
the PAT kick attempt by
Dryden, allowing the Rebels to hold on to a slim
14-13 lead with 6:48 left
until halftime.
The hosts marched
down to the MHS 27 on
their next drive, but a
45-yard ﬁeld goal attempt
by Savat ultimately came
up short of its mark —
giving the Greyhounds
possession at their own
27 with 3:03 remaining.

Gallia Academy’s Morgan Stanley (30) and Ian Hill battle Point Pleasant’s Jacob Bryant (14) for possession of the ball during Thursday night’s non-league soccer
match at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field in Point Pleasant, W. Va.

GA, Point play to scoreless tie
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com

POINT PLEASANT, W. Va.
— Gallia Academy felt like it
won, while Point Pleasant felt
like it lost.
However, what the two soccer squads did on Thursday
night was play to a surprising
scoreless draw, as the Blue
Devils and Black Knights also
navigated a downpour during
their non-league tilt inside a
soggy Ohio Valley Bank Track
and Field.
Thus, host Point Pleasant
was unable to complete the
season sweep, as the experienced Black Knights notched
a 4-0 shutout in the two
teams’ initial meeting on Aug.
29.
But that evening was sunny
and on the natural grass
surface of Gallia Academy’s
Lester Field, while Thursday’s
return bout ended up being
played in the rain and on a
Fieldturf surface.
Still, after the ﬁrst meeting,
few expected the young Blue
Devils to escape Point Pleasant with a tie.
Especially considering that
the entire Gallia Academy
offense consisted of three corner kicks by Morgan Stanley.
That’s correct.
The Blue Devils did not
tally a single ofﬁcial shot on
goal.
Instead, they spent the
overwhelming majority of the
match on defense, as Point
Pleasant posted 10 total shots
— ﬁve in each half.
The Black Knights also had
three corner kicks, but could
not get the one necessary
marker to snap their twomatch losing streak.
With the stalemate, Gallia Academy’s record is now

Point Pleasant is now 5-3-1,
as head coach Chip Wood was
clearly disappointed following
the contest.
“This is more like a loss,
really,” he said. “Gallia Academy did exactly what they
wanted. They parked the bus
in front of the goal with eight
or nine people. They didn’t
even try to come out and play
any soccer whatsoever. They
just tried to sit back there and
defend. We tried to get some
penetration passes and tried
to play the ball out wide to
draw them out. But they just
stayed back in.”
Indeed, Wood compared the
Blue Devils’ tactics to taking
“the air out of the ball” in basketball.
“They took their time. They
took seven or eight seconds
every time they threw the ball
in. Every time their keeper
had the ball, he worked off
ﬁve or six seconds. Every
time they took a goal kick,
they took 10 or 15 seconds
off the clock. All they wanted
to do was kick the ball out of
bounds and not play the ball,”
he said. “They didn’t come

came over here just to stall
and get out of here with a

wanted. We tried to pull them

at Franklin Valley Golf Course,

NELSONVILLE, Ohio
— Unfortunately for the
Raiders on Friday night,
they took in the Garrett
Maiden show.
That’s because Maiden,
the Nelsonville-York quarterback, threw for ﬁve
touchdowns and dashed 62
yards for another — as the
host Buckeyes blitzkrieged
visiting River Valley 49-7
in the Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division football
opener at Boston Field.
The Buckeyes blew
up the scoreboard for
21 points in each of the
opening two quarters,
then got an insurance
touchdown from Brian
Heller — with three minutes and 20 seconds to
play in the third period.
In addition to Maiden’s
ﬁve passing touchdowns,
and 62-yard run with four
seconds left in the ﬁrst
half, he also successfully
kicked the ﬁrst ﬁve Buckeye extra points.
Alec Taylor tacked on
the other two.
For the Raiders, their
seven points came courtesy of a 6-yard touchdown
pass from Patrick Brown
to Dustin Barber with
9:12 to play in the opening half.
Colton Gilmore added
the extra-point kick, but
by then, River Valley
trailed 28-0.
With the win, the Buckeyes — the defending
TVC Ohio champions —
remained undefeated at
4-0.
The Raiders, which
have now lost nine of
their last 10 meetings
with Nelsonville-York,
slipped to an even 2-2.
Maiden completed
15-of-22 passes for an
astounding 340 yards,
as Ronnie Wend — with
receptions of 20 yards
and ﬁve yards in the second quarter — caught the
ﬁnal two passing TDs.
The 20-yarder made it
28-0 only 46 seconds into
the second stanza, before
the 5-yarder at the fourminute mark made it 35-0.
Maiden opened the
scoring with a 72-yard
strike to Chris Cook, then
connected with Keegan
Wilburn for 29 yards to
make it 14-0.
The Buckeyes ballooned
the lead to 21-0 with only
a minute remaining in
the ﬁrst quarter — on a
55-yard pitch-and-catch
between Maiden and Shakim Williams.
Nelsonville-York rolled
up 583 yards of total
offense, adding 243 rushing yards on 27 carries
— and amounting 16 ﬁrst
downs.
Maiden’s 63 yards on
three rushes and Wilburn’s
60 yards on ﬁve attempts
paced the Orange and
Brown on the ground.
Williams made four
receptions for 80 yards,
while Cook caught three
balls for 130 yards.
The Raiders rushed for
only 61 yards on 23 carries, paced by Cole Young
with 35 yards and Brown
with another 24.
Brown completed 11-of31 passes for 135 yards
with one interception, as
Barber bagged nine receptions for three yards shy
of an even 100.
The Raiders ran 55
plays from scrimmage,
but punted four times in
addition to being held to
under 200 total yards.
The Raiders return
home, and return to TVC
Ohio Division action, next
Friday night against Meigs.
