project in the district.

with engineers who
will be able to remove
pavement, to ﬁnd and
ﬁll voids as long as the

the parking lot. The
Walking Path project,
which will be the combination of the Pomeroy

in the works of creating
the path eight feet wide

In other council news,
Ohlinger inquired about
the mowing of the cemetery as there is one

look and appropriately
decide if the last mow is
necessary. Insurance recommendations on unsafe

Halfhill is PVH Employee of the Month
POINT PLEASANT
— Pleasant Valley Hospital (PVH) announces
the Customer Service
Employee of the Month
for November 2017 is
Gwen Halfhill.
She has been employed
since March 2011, as a
Certiﬁed Pharmacy Tech.
The Employee of the
Month at PVH is nominated for “taking extra
steps to provide excellent customer service to
our patients and family

members at Pleasant Valley Hospital,” according
a statement from the
hospital.
Halfhill was recognized
because on several occasions she has seen the
Food Service Department with a long line
at the register and grill,
and she has helped them
restock supplies. This
help was both unsolicited
and greatly appreciated
by food service. She also
goes above and beyond

the requirements of her
own position on a daily
basis by assuming a leadership role in the hospitals pharmaceutical waste
management program
and the oncology program. Her assertiveness
and initiative indirectly
but positively affects the
patient experience by
allowing the pharmacists
to concentrate their
efforts on the clinical
aspects of patient care,
according to PVH.

“Gwen is an excellent
example of the PVH
Employee of the Month,
and we are very grateful
to have her on our team,”
a spokesperson for PVH
said.
In this recognition,
she received a $50 check
and a VIP parking space.
She will also be eligible
for the Customer Service
Employee of the Year
award with a chance for
$250.

BEIJING (AP) —
U.S. and Chinese companies on Wednesday
signed business deals
the two sides valued
at $9 billion during a
visit by President Donald Trump in a tradition aimed at blunting
criticism of Beijing’s

China’s biggest

pledged to buy $1.2

beef and pork but no
other details of the 19
agreements signed at a
ceremony attended by

Such contract signings are a ﬁxture of

Rio planned to use the levy
dollars to support critical
educational programs that
serve regional and community
needs, focusing on preparing
today and tomorrow’s workforce.
The community college will

“Although the levy did not

said. “While this was not the
outcome we were hoping for,
we will continue to use the
resources we have to provide
a quality education at an
affordable price for a stronger

MSU success
against OSU
needs defense
By Jim Naveau
jnaveau@limanews.com

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Michigan State football
coach Mark Dantonio was not happy when former Michigan running back Mike Hart made his
famous “little brother” comment about the Spartans in 2007.
So, it’s probably not a good idea to refer to Ohio
State’s rivalry with MSU as the little brother of its
legendary rivalry with Michigan.
But that’s kind of what it is. The Michigan rivalry is in a category of its own. But Michigan State
has tormented the Buckeyes often enough in the
Urban Meyer era that it is clearly No. 2 on the list
of Big Ten rivals.
The Spartans are the only Big Ten team to beat
OSU twice since Meyer became the Buckeyes’
coach. And those two defeats were very costly for
Ohio State.
In 2013, Michigan State beat Ohio State 34-24
in the Big Ten championship game when OSU was
undefeated. Two years later, with Lima Central
Catholic graduate Tyler O’Connor ﬁlling in for the
injured Connor Cook at quarterback, Michigan
State beat another undefeated OSU team 17-14.
The 2013 loss probably cost Ohio State a trip
to the BCS championship game and the 2015 loss
kept the Buckeyes out of the College Football Playoff.
Three of the last ﬁve times the two teams have
played have had a retro feeling, with the two
teams pounding on each other for 60 minutes.
Urban Meyer compared this year’s team to a
prize ﬁght earlier this week and said, “The tougher team usually wins.”
It was that way when Ohio State won 17-16 in
East Lansing in 2012 and by that same score last
season. It was that way in 2015 when Michigan
State won 17-14 on a day when OSU seemed to
forget giving the ball to Ezekiel Elliott was a very
good idea.
The only exceptions were the 2013 Big Ten
Championship game and OSU’s 49-37 win at
Michigan State in 2014.
If there is a common thread to Michigan State’s
success against the Buckeyes that has heated up
the rivalry, it is that its defense has held them
below their average offensive output and in one
case far below it.
That probably should not be a surprise with
Dantonio, the defensive coordinator on Ohio
State’s 2002 national championship team, as its
head coach.
The only time in the last ﬁve seasons Ohio
State’s total yardage against Michigan State has
exceeded its season average was when it rolled up
568 yards in 2014.
In 2016, it averaged 459 yards a game and
gained 310 at Michigan State. The 2015 team

Stewart hints he
may race in future
KANNAPOLIS, N.C. (AP) — Tony Stewart hasn’t
ruled out a return in some form to NASCAR, perhaps
in the Xﬁnity Series or at Charlotte Motor Speedway’s
road course.
The three-time NASCAR champion expressed
interest in getting back in a stock car Wednesday as
he introduced Aric Almirola as the newest driver at
Stewart-Haas Racing . At one point, Almirola turned
to his new boss and asked if he can run Xﬁnity Series
races next season.
“We’ll work on that. I might want to drive it at some
point,” Stewart said.
When the assembled media groaned at Stewart
potentially dangling fake news, he doubled down.
“You guys act like you don’t need something shocking today to write,” Stewart said. “There are actually
some road course races that I might be interested in
running. We’ve actually discussed it in-house here, but
we don’t have anything near worth announcing by any
means, but there are some really cool races, especially
Charlotte having a road course race next year. I mean,
there might be some opportunities that might be a
little bit fun for me to come out and dust things off a
little bit.”
Stewart later told reporters he’s working on something even bigger that does not involve NASCAR. He
declined to share more information, but has publicly
expressed interest in running the 24 Hours of Le
Mans, Global RallyCross and has even chided team
co-owner Gene Haas about Formula One’s Monaco
Grand Prix.
Stewart retired at the end of last season. Now 46,
he’s got a full schedule of sprint car racing and has
seemingly enjoyed his time in his role as owner at
NASCAR races. Prior to Wednesday, he’d never publicly expressed interest in running a NASCAR race
again.
There are four road courses on the 2018 Xﬁnity
Series schedule, at Watkins Glen International, MidOhio Sports Car Course, Road America and Charlotte. The Charlotte road course is the inﬁeld of the
current oval, which will be reconﬁgured for a pair of
races next season.

No change at top of CFP rankings
By Ralph D. Russo
Associated Press

With three games
matching teams in the
selection committee’s
top 10, the College Football Playoff race could
become a lot clearer on
Saturday.
Or more muddled.
Georgia, Alabama,
Notre Dame and Clemson held their spots in
the top four of the selection committee rankings
Tuesday night, and
unbeaten Miami moved
up three spots to No.
7 before its showdown
with the Fighting Irish.

Oklahoma remained
ﬁfth and TCU moved up
to sixth. The Sooners
and Horned Frogs play a
key Big 12 game on Saturday, with the winner
taking sole possession of
ﬁrst place in the conference.
Notre Dame visits the
Hurricanes on Saturday
night, and Georgia is at
Auburn, which came in
10th.
After Miami in the
rankings, unbeaten Wisconsin was No. 8, the
highest-ranked Big Ten
team. The Hurricanes
jumped over Wisconsin
after beating Virginia

Tech handily last Saturday. The Badgers pulled
away late in a rout of
Indiana.
Selection committee
chairman Kirby Hocutt,
Texas Tech’s athletic
director, said the committee was impressed
by the Hurricanes’ most
convincing win of the
season against a “solid”
Virginia Tech team.
“That strengthened
their resume more than,
I would say, Wisconsin strengthened their
resume with a win over a
three-win Indiana team,”
Hocutt said.
Washington, the high-

est-ranked Pac-12 team,
is ninth and Auburn is
10th.
No. 14 Penn State and
No. 15 Ohio State fell
out of the top 10 after
losses last week.
UCF was 18th, the
highest-ranked team
from outside the Power
Five conferences. The
highest-ranked conference champion from the
Group of Five leagues is
guaranteed a spot in one
of the New Year’s Six
Bowls, and the American
Athletic Conference is in
prime position to grab
that bid, likely to the
Peach or Fiesta bowl.

Spartans have
another big chance
against Ohio State
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Once again,
the biggest game of the Big Ten regular season
might be Ohio State against Michigan State.
That’s nothing new, but it’s also not what was
predicted in 2017.
“No one expected us to be here at this point,
except for us,” Spartans quarterback Brian Lewerke said Tuesday. “It’s a big moment. We realize
it. I don’t think it’s one of those where we’ve got
nothing to lose, because we do have stuff to lose
— the Big Ten championship on the line, and we
deﬁnitely want to be there.”
Saturday’s game at Ohio State will merely be the
latest of several matchups between the Buckeyes
and Spartans this decade that had major conference title implications. Michigan State beat Ohio
State in the 2013 Big Ten title game. Since then,
the teams have been in the same division, and in
2014 and 2015, they split two meetings that essentially decided who would play in the league title
game.
The matchup lost a lot of its luster last season,
when Michigan State went 3-9, but the 13thranked Spartans (7-2, 5-1, No. 12 CFP) have
rebounded and will have the inside track to a division title if they can beat No. 11 Ohio State (7-2,
5-1, No. 13).
The Buckeyes are double-digit favorites over a
Michigan State team that hasn’t won a Big Ten
game by more than eight points, and if the Spartans lose, this will still have been an encouraging
season with an inexperienced team. After coming
this far, however, Michigan State now has high
stakes to play for.
“We have a lot to lose. We’re in control right
now. So we do have a lot to lose and we want
to stay in control,” coach Mark Dantonio said.
“We’re excited we have this opportunity, but we’ve
worked for this opportunity and we’ve channeled
everything to get to November, knowing that last
week was going to be a challenge, this week and
then the following two weeks.”
The Spartans edged Penn State last weekend on
a last-second ﬁeld goal.
“We certainly haven’t played ﬂawlessly. There’s
a lot of things we’ve got to correct and be able to
move forward on,” Dantonio said. “I think that
somebody said we’re playing with house money. I
don’t know. So we’ll just keep going.”
Michigan State was expected to lean on its running game this season, but Lewerke has become
the key to the offense, attempting 113 passes over
the past two games and reaching 400 yards passing in each.
His performance against Penn State was particularly impressive since it came on a wet day that
included a lengthy weather delay in the second
quarter. Lewerke is only a sophomore, so the
future looks bright for both him and the Spartans.
But right now, the focus is on the present. Michigan State’s next chance to contend in the Big Ten
came sooner than expected.

Jarnkrok, Rinne
power Predators past
Blue Jackets 3-1
By Mitch Stacy
AP Sports Writer

COLUMBUS, Ohio
— The Nashville
Predators ﬁnished off a
successful early-season
trip with a win over
the Columbus Blue
Jackets.
The Predators won
a couple in California
before beating Columbus 3-1, with the only
loss coming in the ﬁrst
game of the swing at
San Jose on Nov. 1.
“We did what we
had to do on the road
here, so it was good,”
Nashville coach Peter
Laviolette said. “(We)
walk away with six
points out of eight on a
road trip this early. For
me, it’s good to be in
the spot we’re in.”
Calle Jarnkrok
scored in the third
period and Pekka
Rinne stopped 35
shots for the Predators, who dealt Columbus its third straight
loss.
“I’ve been feeling
really good, my body
has been feeling good,
and I seem to see the
puck really well right
now,” Rinne said. “Also
tonight I gave up a few
not-so-great rebounds,
and guys were there
for me, so that’s what I
need, too.”
Jarnkrok put Nashville ahead to stay ,
sweeping a rebound

past goaltender Joonas
Korpisalo with 5:35
remaining. The Blue
Jackets challenged the
goal, contending Kevin
Fiala interfered with
Korpisalo and kept him
from making the save,
but it was upheld after
a video replay.
Matt Irwin scored
in the ﬁrst period and
Viktor Arvidsson got
an empty-net goal in
the ﬁnal minute for the
Predators (8-5-2).
Korpisalo, who
started for Sergei
Bobrovsky on the
second night of a backto-back, also turned in
a strong performance,
stopping 26 shots.
Rookie Pierre-Luc
Dubois scored for the
Blue Jackets (9-6-1).
After a scoreless
ﬁrst period in which
Columbus had an 11-8
shot advantage, Nashville got on the board
with 7:24 left in the
second. Irwin scored
his second goal of the
season when he got a
nice crossing pass from
Arvidsson and lifted
a wrist shot over Korpisalo’s glove.
Dubois tied it at 1
with an impressive
sequence 4:37 into
the third period. He
picked the pocket of
P.K. Subban in the
neutral zone, charged
in and beat Rinne with
a backhander for his
second of the season.

Halladay remembered for hard work
PHILADELPHIA (AP)
— A ﬁerce competitor
on the mound, Roy Halladay was generous and
gentle away from the
ﬁeld.
The eight-time All-Star
loved his family, baseball
and ﬂying.
Halladay’s passion for
piloting cost him his life
Tuesday when his private
plane crashed into the
Gulf of Mexico. He was
40.
Former teammates,
coaches and fans mourned the sudden loss of the
beloved former player,
who was known for his
tireless work ethic. Nearly every memory began
with a story about Halladay’s legendary workout
program and his early
morning routine.
Halladay even outworked Chase Utley.
The fan favorites
quickly became close
friends after Halladay
was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies before
the 2010 season. Utley
recalled his introduction
to Halladay at the team’s
practice complex in
Clearwater, Florida.
“My heart hurts writing this,” Utley wrote
on Instagram. “I can
still remember the ﬁrst
day we met. It was
5:45am on the ﬁrst day
of spring training when
I arrived. He was ﬁnishing his breakfast but his
clothes were soaking
wet. I asked if it was
raining when he got in.
He laughed and said ‘No
I just ﬁnished my workout.’ I knew right then
— he was the real deal.
Thank you Roy for allowing us to witness what it
takes to be the best. We
will all miss you.”
Former teammate

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Roy Halladay celebrates with catcher Carlos Ruiz (51) after
throwing a no-hitter Oct. 6, 2010, to defeat the Cincinnati Reds 4-0 during Game 1 of the National
League Division Series in Philadelphia. Authorities have confirmed that Halladay died in a small plane
crash in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Florida on Tuesday.

Cole Hamels, currently
a Texas Rangers ace,
joined Phillies chairman
David Montgomery at
Philadelphia’s ballpark to
remember Halladay. Fans
left pictures, candles and
notes outside the stadium to honor Halladay,
who played four years
there after spending his
ﬁrst 12 seasons with the
Toronto Blue Jays.
“Behind everything he
did, he had a purpose,”
Hamels said. “I think you
come to realize that you
have very small, short
moments in life to do
something great so you
have to maximize it. You
have to make the best of
it. And he did. He made
us push to a level that
sometimes you didn’t
think you could actually
reach. He made everybody better.”
Halladay won a Cy
Young Award in each

league and tossed a perfect game and a no-hitter
in his ﬁrst postseason
start in the same year
after coming to the Phillies. The 6-foot-6 righthander was a three-time
20-game winner who
ﬁnished 203-105 with a
3.38 ERA.
Halladay was a devoted
husband to wife Brandy
and a loving father to
sons Ryan and Braden.
“All-Star pitcher. AllStar person. All-Star
father and family man,”
Montgomery said.
Halladay served as a
guest instructor with the
Phillies in spring training
and had his own ofﬁce at
the complex. He enjoyed
working with the organization’s young players
on the mental aspects of
baseball.
“He certainly would
have given more to baseball in the future because

of his love for the game,”
Montgomery said. “But
his commitment to his
family kept him where he
was the last few years.
We’d had a number of
conversations about his
potential future in the
game. But he just would
say, ‘I want it, but it’s on
hold. It’s on hold right
now because of my family.’”
Halladay was the pitching coach at Calvary
Christian High School,
and he was coaching
another youth team.
For all of his personal
accomplishments, Halladay always put the
team ﬁrst and shared the
credit. He gave all of his
teammates and members
of the organization a luxury watch to commemorate his perfect game and
had a special bond with
former Phillies catcher
Carlos Ruiz.

Cavs get past Bucks, 124-119
CLEVELAND (AP) —
Kevin Love joked that he
might swing by the hospital on his way home.
On a recent visit, he
got a dose of something
that made him and the
Cavaliers feel better.
Love scored a seasonhigh 32 points without
attempting a 3-pointer,
LeBron James added 30
following an interesting
couple days on social
media, and Cleveland
withstood a 40-point
performance by Giannis
Antetokounmpo to beat
the Milwaukee Bucks
124-119 on Tuesday
night.
The Cavs have been
one of the NBA’s biggest
surprises this season —
for all the wrong reasons.
But after losing ﬁve of
six, they did enough to
hand the young-andimproving Bucks their
fourth straight loss and
keep Cleveland fans from
panicking.
Love was brieﬂy hospitalized after scoring just
four points and leaving a
surprising loss to Atlanta
in the third quarter on
Sunday. Following his
best game this season,
Cleveland’s center was
asked what IV medications he received.
“I don’t know,” he said
with a smile. “Whatever
they gave me I might go
back and check myself in
tonight.”
Love added 16
rebounds. J.R. Smith
found his stroke and
added a season-high 20
points for the Cavs.
“That’s my guy,” James
said of Smith, who went
5 of 7 on 3-pointers
while wearing a model
of James’ sneakers.
“Swish is my guy and
he’s been struggling the
ﬁrst 10 games. I told
him it was the shoes. He

Tony Dejak | AP

Cleveland Cavaliers’ Kevin Love (0) drives against Milwaukee Bucks’ Thon Maker (7), from Australia,
in the second half of an NBA basketball game, Tuesday, Nov. 7, 2017, in Cleveland. The Cavaliers won
124-119.

ﬁnally decided to wear
my shoes. After a long
conversation we ﬁnally
decided to wear them
and he had a breakout
game.
“He hit the 3-ball, got
into the paint. That was
Swish. We’re gonna need
more of that from him a
lot coming up.”
Still a few weeks shy
of his 23rd birthday, the
multi-talented Antetokounmpo ﬁnished 16 of 21
from the ﬂoor. He also
had nine rebounds and
eight turnovers before
fouling out with 18 seconds left.
Malcolm Brogdon had
22 points for Milwaukee,
and Khris Middleton ﬁnished with 20.
Before the game, the
Bucks got some scoring help by acquiring
guard Eric Bledsoe from
Phoenix in exchange
for forward/center Greg
Monroe and two draft
picks.
Afterward, coach Jason
Kidd complained about
the ofﬁciating. Milwaukee was called for 31

personals compared to
18 for Cleveland, and the
Cavs attempted 38 free
throws.
Kidd pointed out
that over the past three
games, opponents have
tried 95 free throws to
40 for Milwaukee.
“I just got ﬁned,” he
said. “That’s one way.
The other way is by
expressing to the ofﬁcials and I did that the
whole night. The different crews that we’ve had
have been awful.”
Cleveland’s start to
the season has been puzzling on so many levels.
Loaded with as much
talent as any team in the
league, the Eastern Conference champions have
been beating good teams
and losing to squads they
should be handling.
“We don’t want to,”
Love said. “We’d rather
come out and play —
because we’re capable —
at a high level of basketball every single game.
We have a ton of talent
in here.”
The myriad issues have

led to the usual scrutiny
of James, who caused a
stir on social media Monday night.
Moments after former
teammate Kyrie Irving
and the Boston Celtics
beat the Hawks for their
ninth straight win, James
posted a meme on his
Instagram account of the
kids’ cartoon character
Arthur with a clenched
ﬁst with the caption
“mood.”
Asked for the meaning,
James shrugged.
“I like Arthur,” he said.
First unit
Plagued by slow starts
through their ﬁrst 10
games, the Cavs came out
with better intensity and
focus.
Cleveland shot 69 percent from the ﬂoor (11
of 16) and made 14 of 15
free throws in the ﬁrst
quarter while opening
an 11-point lead. It was
a much better showing
from the Cavs’ starters,
who were criticized by
Dwyane Wade after Sunday’s loss.
