The added probable case comes from a positive antibody test and the individual has since recovered.

Mike DeWine said Monday. The governor warned that bar owners could wind up in court or lose their liquor licenses if they don’t take steps to control their customers. “Our economic recovery in the state of Ohio is tied directly in how successful we are stopping the spread of the coronavirus,” DeWine said. Health departments, including those in Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus, were investigating several complaints about a lack of social distancing at crowed bars and restaurants over the weekend. Friday was the ﬁrst day that establishments were allowed to resume outdoor dining and drinking. The Ohio Restaurant Association wrote in an email to members Saturday evening that there were concerns about reports of establishments not operating in accord with the governor’s guidelines, which includes requiring customers to be seated when eating or drinking. The organization said it’s likely “these are isolated incidents and not reﬂective of our industry’s overall positive response to reopening safely.” See OHIO | 3 AIM Media Midwest Operating, LLC (USPS 145-966) Telephone: 740-992-2155 Publishes every Tuesday through Saturday.

Valedictorian Faith Bauerbach speaks as part of the Class of 2020 commencement exercises.

Due to COVID-19 and the resulting restrictions, the 63rd annual Commencement Exercises for Eastern High School were recorded during the week of May 4 and put together in to a video by Bartee Photography, which was released online at the original graduation time of 2 p.m. on Sunday. The video included the slides featuring baby and senior photos of the graduates, along with their senior quotes; a walk through the halls; a welcome by Class President Hannah Faulisi; addresses by Valedictorian Faith Bauerbach, Salutatorian Michael Letson, Principal Shawn Bush and Supt. Steve Ohlinger; invocation and Salutatorian Michael Letson speaks as part of the Class of 2020 commencement exercises. benediction by Garrett Barringer; the Pledge of Allegiance lead by Wesley Smith; a message for Eastern Local Board of Education members; and slides listing future plans of graduates, along with their awards, scholarships and high school activities. “I think I can speak for everyone when I say I never imagined this is how we would be graduating. … Because of COVID-19, I am saddened that I am only able to have a limited amount of family members in front of me today, as a I am sure the rest of you are too,” said Bauerbach. “Through this difﬁcult time there are still people that are proud of you, still people that made a way for us to graduate, and still a God that loves you and is with you every step of the way.” In her address, Bauerbach to live their life, living “unique” and “original”. “Sadie Robertson reminds us to ‘live unique’, to ‘follow our plan created for our lives’, and to ‘live originally’,” said Bauerbach. “No matter where life takes us after today, we will know that our class will be remembered for a long time. We must not think too hard on what we may have missed out on in our last days of high school, but what our future will bring us now that we are graduated and starting a new chapter in our lives.” Photos by Sarah Hawley | Sentinel In his Salutatorian address, Michael Letson spoke about the events unfolding around the class of 2020 and the importance of where the graduates are at this time. “In contrast to popular belief, I believe a high school diploma is the most important form of education that one can receive,” said Letson, explaining his reasoning. “One cannot get into college, a trade school, or attain many forms of employment in the workforce without it. The number of possibilities that one has after receiving their high school diploma are inﬁnite. And for this reason, I encourage each and everyone of you to follow the road that you want to travel. It is important that you pursue the path that you want to travel, and never let anyone stand in your way.” Letson also spoke about how the class of 2020 is “destined for greatness” due to the events that have shaped their lives. “We entered this world when our country was in turmoil and distress due to the terrible terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, and we are graduating, which for See EHS | 8 Buckeye Hills arranging airlift of PPE Staff Report MARIETTA — A much-needed delivery of personal protective equipment is being airlifted to Southeast Ohio for distribution to front-line home healthcare workers. Buckeye Hills Regional Council (BHRC) is partnering with Noble County EMA in coordinating the airlift with support from the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC), in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Appalachian Regional Commission announced on May 12 a grant in the amount of $119,554 to BHRC to deliver personal protective equipment (PPE) to front-line home healthcare workers. Throughout BHRC’s eight county region of Athens, Hocking, Meigs, Monroe, Morgan, Noble, Perry, and Washington counties, more than 200 cases of COVID-19 have been conﬁrmed with a total of at least 20 conﬁrmed deaths. With this investment, BHRC will serve 1,945 patients by equipping 39 home healthcare provider agencies throughout the eightcounty region. The delivery is anticipated to include 200,000 N95 masks, 20,490 gowns, 4,000 gloves, and 2,500 N95 respirators. Buckeye Hills worked with Global Rapid Response Group to arrange for the airlift of the PPE into Ohio, coordinated with the home healthcare provider companies to identify needs, and accessed the ARC funding. Noble EMA is lead- ing the planning for distribution of the PPE to the providers, as well as coordinating the means of transporting the supply once it arrives. “At the beginning of the pandemic, it quickly became clear to us that our region’s home healthcare providers were struggling to ﬁnd and maintain access to the supplies necessary to keep their employees and the seniors they serve safe in the midst of this pandemic,” said Rick Hindman, BHRC Assistant Executive Director.

District Governor Gary Vaughan challenged the clubs to donate $50,000 in just four weeks to support the food banks. To encourage club and individual participation, Rotary District 6690 offered to match the donations to provide even more help for the thousands of workers who were suddenly unemployed as businesses closed to prevent the spread COVID19. “I am so proud of our Rotarians and their ability to respond to this challenge to help the people in our communities who have lost their jobs and need assistance from the pantries. Many clubs also made emergency donations to their local food pantries as soon as the shelter in place order was made. Strengthening our communities through service is why we are Rotarians” stated Vaughan. According to Matt Barbershop investigation Health ofﬁcials in Toledo have started an investigation after learning a person with a conﬁrmed case of the coronavirus was at a barbershop on Friday, the ﬁrst day Ohio’s beauty salons and barbershops were allowed to reopen. Ofﬁcials with The Toledo-Lucas County Health Department said Monday that they want to talk with anyone who was at Bob’s Barber Shop in Curtice on Friday. Latest cases The number of conﬁrmed and probable deaths associated with the coronavirus in Ohio has reached 1,657, state health ofﬁcials said Monday. The Ohio Department of Health also said that 32 new deaths were reported in the past day and that overall there have been a total of 5,000 hospitalizations. Health ofﬁcials said there were now more than 28,000 cases considered either conﬁrmed or probable. For most people, the virus causes mild or moderate symptoms that clear up in a couple of weeks. Older adults and people with existing health problems are at higher risk of more severe illness, including pneumonia, or death. Prisons A nurse who worked for the prison system at its Correctional Reception Center in central Ohio died Sunday, becoming the third department employee to die from the virus, a spokeswoman said Monday. Meanwhile, the prison system is reducing widespread testing in favor of testing inmates who show signs of COVID-19, The Columbus Dispatch reported. The approach better protects inmates, staff and the community, spokeswoman JoEllen Smith told the paper. “Testing only detects the presence of the virus at a point in time and does not detect the amount of virus in the body,” she said. “A person could test negative one day and test positive the next.” Four inmates housed at three Ohio prisons — Marion, Richland, and Allen correctional institutions — have ﬁled a federal lawsuit to enforce social distancing, get access to cleaning supplies and increase the number of inmates being released. More than 4,500 inmates have tested positive and 62 have died at seven institutions.

Beginning yesterday, the state was to take up to 50 inmates a day at the Correctional Reception Center in central Ohio. Authorities will hold inmates a minimum of 35 days before transferring them to facilities around the state based on their security level and other factors. The agency needs to resume housing inmates as Ohio courts reopen, said JoEllen Smith, spokeswoman for the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. “Reopening the reception process will be done in a gradual controlled manner while we continue to carefully monitor county jail operations,” Smith said. The announcement comes even as positive cases of COVID-19 continue to rise in Ohio prisons along with inmate deaths. More than 4,500 inmates systemwide have tested positive, or nearly one in 10, and 60 inmates have died, with deaths spread across seven institutions. More than 570 employees have tested positive and two also have died, a guard and a nurse. Ohio is second highest after Tennessee in its perprisoner case rate and has the fourth-highest COVID prisoner death rate, according to an analysis of state prison cases by The Marshall Project, a nonproﬁt investigative news organization focused on the U.S. criminal justice system. However, unlike in Ohio, Tennessee has ordered universal testing of all inmates, meaning Ohio’s numbers could be considerably higher. Across the U.S., more than 25,000 inmates have tested positive for COVID-19, and at least 370 have died, according to the analysis. Thousands of correctional ofﬁcers across the country have also tested positive. Ohio’s current inmate population is 47,241, the lowest in several years. The state reduced the number of inmates by 1,839 since March 24 through a combination of early releases spurred by the coronavirus to ease crowding, regular releases for inmates whose sentences were up, and the state’s decision to temporarily stop taking male inmates during the pandemic. COVID-19 From page 1 accurate and having antibodies does not always mean immunity. Research is still being conducted into viral loads and reinfection rates in regards to waning antibodies.” As of Monday, Gallia County has reported two probable cases of COVID-19 in county residents and ﬁve conﬁrmed. Of those, one has died, one is currently hospitalized and ﬁve have recovered. The health depart- ment reports there have been 313 tests given for COVID-19. Of antibody tests given, the department reports there have been two positive and 79 negative. Meigs County remains at a total of three cases with two conﬁrmed cases and one probable case, all of which are listed as recovered. Meigs County has the lowest reported case total of any of Ohio’s 88 counties.

Coronavirus catchphrase taken from WWII CINCINNATI (AP) — A British general’s pessimistic prediction about a World War II operation is showing up as a coronavirus-era catchphrase. The top U.S. infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, urged caution in Senate testimony last week on reopening decisions, including about children and schools, saying “the idea of having treatments available or a vaccine to facilitate the reentry of students into the fall term would be something that would be a bit of a bridge too far.” Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, a Republican who has earned praise for aggressive measures to curb the spread of the virus, has used the phrase while explaining his decision to reverse himself on requiring people to wear masks in public because of negative feedback. It was a mandate many people wouldn’t accept, he said on ABC’s “This Week,” calling it “a bridge too far.” “Who knew?” said Alexander Lovelace, who just earned his doctorate in American military history at Ohio University after defending his dissertation on the role of the media in shaping Allied strategy in World War II, of the new use of the phrase popularized by journalist and author Cornelius Ryan with his 1974 book “A Bridge Too Far.” “It is something that kind of works it way into popular culture without really thinking about it,” Lovelace said. “I guess it is a little odd comparing wearing a face mask to the Second World War.” DeWine said he hadn’t read Ryan’s book, but was familiar with it. He said it was a good way to explain his belief that the masks “was one order too many” for many Ohioans. “Frankly I was kind of groping for an expression,” DeWine told The Associated Press on Friday. “That phrase just popped into my head.” Lovelace, 31, a native of the Baltimore area, Specifications: " 40x80x12 12" overhang 3 16x10 overhead doors (upgraded 2" thick) insulated with openers.

Ryan, who received a honorary doctorate from the school, was a friend of the late Scripps College of Communication Dean John Wilhelm, a fellow war correspondent, and the school houses his collection of ﬁles, letters, audio interviews and questionnaires. Ryan, best known for his D-Day book “The Longest Day,” ﬁnished “A Bridge Too Far” months before his death in 1974. It recounts Operation Market Garden, an initiative in September 1944 to punch through the Netherlands, cut off enemy supply lines and ﬁnish off German resistance by that Christmas. The strategy was championed by British Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery, while other Allied generals favored using a broad front approach with the German military on the run. British Lt. Gen. Frederick Browning had voiced caution. “I think we might be going a bridge too far,” said Browning, proved correct when the Allies were stopped at Arnhem road bridge as Germans mounted surprisingly strong opposition behind two SS Panzer divisions. There were thousands of casualties and missing men on both sides, and war in Europe continued into May 1945. Ryan’s book became a 1977 movie featuring an All-Star cast including Sean Connery, Michael Caine, James Caan and Robert Redford. Browning was played by Dirk Bogarde, a 1950s British leading man whose quote in the movie becomes: “Well, as you know, I’ve always thought that we tried to go a bridge too far.” The movie got lackluster reviews, with some critics suggesting that its nearly three-hour length was a bridge too far. ‘Matewan Massacre’ embodied miners’ struggles MATEWAN, W.Va. (AP) — The bullet holes in the brick wall of a former post ofﬁce serve as a reminder of how Appalachian coal miners fought to improve the lives of workers a century ago. Ten people were killed in a gun battle between miners, who were led by a local police chief, and a group of private security guards hired to evict them for joining a union in Matewan, a small “company town” in West Virginia. Plans to publicly commemorate what became known as the Matewan Massacre have been delayed by the coronavirus pandemic until September at least. But historians consider the bloodshed on May 19, 1920, memorialized in the 1987 ﬁlm “Matewan,” to be a landmark moment in the battles for workers’ rights that raged across the Appalachian coalﬁelds in the early 20th century. “The company town system was extremely oppressive,” said Lou Martin, a history professor at Chatham University in Pittsburgh and a board member of the West Virginia Mine Wars Museum in Matewan. “The company owned the houses, the only store in town, ran the church and controlled every aspect of the miners’ lives.” Company towns were particularly prevalent in remote areas like southern West Virginia, which had the nation’s largest concentration of nonunion minors in 1920. And when the United Mine Workers came to town, coal companies retaliated. The Stone Mountain Coal Co. hired BaldwinFelts Agency detectives to evict union families Classifieds O.O.

Tuesday, May 19, 2020 5 from company-owned homes. Executive Albert Felts brought a dozen men to Matewan, including two who had been involved in violent strike-breaking efforts six years earlier in Ludlow, Colorado. The detectives removed the families and were headed out when they were confronted by a group led by Matewan Police Chief Sid Hatﬁeld. Killed in the gunﬁre were Albert Felts, his brother, Lee, ﬁve other Baldwin-Felts detectives, Matewan Mayor Cabell Testerman and two bystanders. Fifteen months later, Hatﬁeld was gone, too, gunned down by Baldwin-Felts detectives on the McDowell County courthouse steps. He was 28. More determined than ever to organize, miners marched by the thousands, leading to the 12-day Battle of Blair Mountain in the summer of 1921. Sixteen men died before they surrendered to federal troops. The UMW’s campaign in southern West Virginia then stalled, along with labor setbacks in steel, meat packing and railroads following World War I. Appalachian coal operators felt they needed to remain nonunion in order to survive, Martin said. “They believed everything else was against them — the terrain, freight rates,” he said. “But paying lower wages, they could stay in business and remain proﬁtable.” But “miners would long remember the lengths that the companies went to to prevent them from having basic rights that would help them organize and get a standard of living,” Martin said. �Sports 6 Tuesday, May 19, 2020 Ohio Valley Publishing Harvick wins at Darlington as NASCAR returns DARLINGTON, S.C. (AP) — This was a 400-mile drive unlike any other in modern day NASCAR. The grandstands were completely empty. There wasn’t a single tailgate inside the track. Everyone wore face coverings — some with the team logos, others opting for plain disposable medical masks. It was nothing close to the corporate sponsorship, pomp and patriotic traveling circus that symbolizes NASCAR. But when the engines ﬁred at Darlington Raceway following a 10-week layoff during the coronavirus pandemic, it turned into a regular old race. Kevin Harvick beat Alex Bowman to win NASCAR’s ﬁrst race back, a spectacle closely watched to see if the largest motorsports series in the United States could successfully return to the track. “I just want to thank everybody from NASCAR and all the teams for letting us do what we do,” Harvick said. “I didn’t think it was going to be that different, then we won and it’s dead silent out here. We miss the fans.” It was a crucial gamble for NAS CAR, which had to get back to the track to stave off ﬁnancial ruin. With races on hold, no money was coming into the sport whatsoever and the NASCAR business model can not sustain the lack of revenue. NASCAR developed a health plan approved by ofﬁcials in both South Carolina and North Carolina and scheduled seven races over the next 11 days at two tracks. As other states began to open, the series tacked more races to ﬁll the calendar with 20 events across seven Southern states between now and June 21. There will be no spectators at least through that date. This ﬁrst event was called the “The Real Heroes 400” and dedicated to health care workers ﬁghting the coronavirus pandemic. The names of health care workers across the country were substituted for the drivers’ name above the door on each of the 40 cars. The industry had to be extremely careful because to even get to the Coca-Cola 600 next week at Charlotte Motor Speedway, NASCAR had to get it right at Darlington. OVP SPORTS BRIEFS Rio hosting Jim Marshall Memorial golf outing JACKSON, Ohio — The Veterans Association at the University of Rio Grande will host their 3rd annual Jim Marshall Memorial Golf Tournament on Saturday, June 13, at Franklin Valley Golf Course in Jackson County. The event will begin at 9 a.m. with a shotgun start and the format is a 4-man scramble. The cost is $50 per player, plus mulligans are available for $10 per individual. There is also a $20 skins fee per team, with cash prizes available for skins. Prizes will be awarded, plus breakfast and lunch will be provided. Beer will be available for purchase at the event as well. Hole and tee box sponsorship is available at a cost of $100 per hole or tee box. All funds raised from the event helps Rio Grande honor veterans at the 2020 Jim Marshall Veteran of the Year Award Banquet — an annual event held every year the last Saturday of October. This year’s banquet is slated for Oct. 31. For more information, to register or to set up a sponsorship, contact Delyssa Edwards by email at dedwards@rio.edu or by phone at 740245-4427. John Amis | AP Atlanta Braves mascot Blooper warms up along side Miami Marlins’ Starlin Castro before a baseball game on April 6, 2019, in Atlanta. Shower at home, don’t spit, Mr Met stay away NEW YORK (AP) — Major League Baseball will look somewhat like high school ball this year under protocols to deal with the new coronavirus, with showers at ballparks discouraged and players possibly arriving in uniform, like they did when they were teenagers. Team personnel will be banned from eating at restaurants on road trips. Even the Phillie Phantic and Mr. Met will be missing, banned from the ﬁeld along with all other team mascots. The traditional exchange of lineup cards would be eliminated, along with highﬁves, ﬁst bumps, and bat boys and girls, according to a 67-page draft of Major League Baseball’s proposed 2020 Operations Manual. A copy was sent to teams Friday and obtained by The Associated Press. The guidelines, ﬁrst reported by The Athletic, are subject to negotiation with the players’ association. Teams will be allowed to have 50 players each under the plan, with the number active for each game still be negotiated. Spitting is prohibited along with water jugs and the use of saunas, steam rooms, pools and cryotherapy chambers. Hitting in indoor cages is discouraged, batting gloves encouraged. Batting practice pitchers are to wear masks, dugout telephones disinfected after each use. Players may not touch their face to give signs, and they’re not allowed to lick their ﬁngers. Teams are encouraged to hold meetings outdoors, players spread apart. Teams were asked to respond with their suggested input by May 22. The protocols were written by MLB senior vice presidents Patrick Houlihan, Bryan Seeley and Chris Young, and vice president Jon Coyles. Young is a former pitcher who retired after the 2017 season. Protocols include details on testing for team staff, who are divided into three tiers. All others may not enter clubhouses, dugouts and the ﬁeld. Seats in the empty stands near the dugout should be used to maintain distance, according to diagrams in the manual, and the next day’s starting pitcher can’t sit in the dugout. Everyone must keep their distance during “The Star-Spangled Banner” and “God Bless America,” Fielders are “encouraged to retreat several steps away from the baserunner” between pitches. First and third base coaches are not to approach baserunners or umpires, and players should not socialize with opponents. Managers and coaches must wear masks while in the dugouts. The entire traveling party — including players — must wear personal protective equipment while on buses and ﬂights. Restaurants are off limits on the road, including the ones in hotels, as are hotel ﬁtness centers. “We emphasize that this is a ﬁrst draft, and will undergo several rounds of changes as we collect comments and suggestions from the clubs, the players’ association, players, and government ofﬁcials,” deputy commissioner Dan Halem wrote in an email to owners, team presidents and CEOs, and general managers that accompanied the protocols. “The document is designed to set minimum standards and identify best practices, but we have attempted to provide clubs with enough ﬂexibility to achieve the desired health and safety objectives in a manner that is tailored to their particular circumstances, including ballpark conﬁguration, location, and the nature of any local governmental regulations or restrictions,” Halem wrote. Scoreboard video is prohibited but music allowed. While there won’t be fans, at least not at the start, it will provide a familiar background audio for the telecasts critical to MLB’s bottom line. A ball will be thrown away after it is touched by multiple players, and throwing the ball around the inﬁeld will be discouraged. Personnel who rub baseballs with mud for the umpires must use gloves. “Individuals must avoid any physical interactions (such as high-ﬁves, ﬁst bumps, or hugs) while at club facilities,” the manual says. Tier 1 people in the plan include players, managers and coaches plus two each from among physicians, athletics trainers and bullpen catchers plus one strength and conditioning coach. Tier 2 includes clubhouse staff, additional coaches, medical and training staff, traveling staff, owners, front ofﬁce, translators, communications staff, video personnel, the head groundskeeper and security plus players’ union and MLB staff along with contractors. Tier 3 covers broadcast personnel and other event services. Players must wear masks while in restricted areas “except while on the ﬁeld or engaging in other strenuous activities” and lockers must have at least 6 feet between them. If needed, temporary clubhouse space will be added, preferably outdoors or areas with better ventilation. “Showering in club facilities should be discouraged,” the plan says. “To the extent showering occurs, clubs should explore modiﬁcations to facilities to allow for physical distancing and hygiene” such as installing partitions and limiting the number of players using the showers at the same time. Teams “should consider requiring (on-ﬁeld staff) to arrive at club facilities dressed for the day’s activities in order to limit time spent in the clubhouse or locker room.” Only medical personnel allowed near injured players. There will be staggered reporting dates for the resumption of spring training. When pitchers and catchers arrive, only ﬁve players may work out at a time. Then come full team workouts, with small groups encouraged but not required, followed by exhibition games. There will be intake screening upon arrival followed a self-quarantine for 24-48 hours until results are available. Players not assigned to big league team when the season starts will remain at spring training or another separate facility. All games at spring training facilities in Florida and Arizona, whether exhibition or regular season, must be scheduled for 7-9 p.m. local time unless MLB gives speciﬁc consent. A ﬁfth umpire would be allowed when the temperature reaches a certain level, allowing for rotation, including sharing of plate umpire duties, Teams should take batting practice on back ﬁelds. Among the road trip changes: —Use of Uber, subways and public buses is banned. —Private airports encouraged and if not available, teams are to use private aviation facilities to board and exit. —Transportation Security Administration screen should take place at ballparks if it can be arranged. —In-ﬂight catering is limited. —Lower ﬂoors are to be used if possible at hotels, so stairs can be used instead of elevators, and private areas arranged for entrances, exits and checkin. —Six staggered bus trips will be scheduled to and from the ballpark. Team staff, including players, will be given thermometers for self screening and are to take two tests in quick succession each morning. At the ballpark, people will be given temperature checks twice a day and multiple ﬂuid swabs each week. Comprehensive Drug Testing will collect samples and Sports Medicine Research and Testing Laboratory in Salt Lake City is to provide results within 24 hours. Family members of players, umpires and the households of anyone covered under the plan will be offered access to testing and PPE. The individuals are encouraged to avoid crowd when away from ballpark. Anyone with a temperature of 100 or higher or who exhibits COVID-19 symptoms or has come in contact with someone conﬁrmed to be infected will be subject to rapid testing at a nearby site. A person cannot rejoin the team until testing negative twice in tests taken at least 24 hours apart. The person also must not exhibit symptoms or COVID-19, and the team physician and MLB medical staff must determine the person not at risk. If an individual is exposed to a person with an infection, that person must show no signs of disease, be tested daily for at least seven consecutive days and undergo more frequent temperature checks. The person also must wear a mask at all times except while on the ﬁeld. Each spring training and regular season ballpark must have dedicated testing and isolation areas. MLB also will offer testing of people who live in same household as covered individuals and to health care workers/ﬁrst responders in big league cities. �COMICS Ohio Valley Publishing BLONDIE Tuesday, May 19, 2020 7 By Dean Young and John Marshall BEETLE BAILEY By Mort, Greg and Brian Walker Today’s answer CRANKSHAFT By Tom Batiuk 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 CONCEPTIS SUDOKU By Vic Lee by Dave Green %\�'DYH�*UHHQ RHYMES WITH ORANGE � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � By Hilary Price �'LIILFXOW\�/HYHO By Bil and Jeff Keane �� OH-70187341 D R TH � � � � � � � � � WARRANTY Promo Number: 285 10 � � � � � � � � � LIFETIME YOUR ENTIRE PURCHASE* % OFF SENIOR & MILITARY DISCOUNTS � � � � � � � � � 1 ER GUA 15 OFF AND! + � � � � � � � � � TT NATIO ’S E N Le GUARANTEED!
