Bitanga’s Martial Arts photos by Anna Frazier

Participants in the first Bitanga’s Break-a-Thon raised more than $10,000 for the Meigs Senior Center.

Proceeds of second annual
event benefit Senior Center
Staff Report

MIDDLEPORT —
After raising more
than $10,000 in its
ﬁrst year, plans are
underway to make
the second annual
Bitanga’s Break-a-Thon
“bigger and better.”
Bitanga’s Martial
Arts Center owner
Ben Nease stated that
planning meetings are
taking place to bring
back the event for a
second year due to
the outstanding community support for the
inaugural event.
The ﬁrst Break-aThon took place in
November 2017, with
the proceeds going
to the Meigs County
Senior Center for
work in the ﬁtness
room at the Center’s
future home in Middleport.
Last year, students
at Bitanga’s Martial
Arts Center collected
$10-per-board donations, and pledged to
break a board for each
donation received.
Local businesses that
purchased a corporate
sponsorship received
a special hand-painted
board with their business’ logo, and were
also listed on the back
of souvenir Break-aThon T-shirts, post-

ers, and Facebook ads
depending upon their
level of sponsorship.
Gathering together
a group of interested
citizens, Nease has
formed a steering committee to oversee the
planning and execution of the event. The
committee, composed
of: Mary Arnold, Amy
Blake, Paige Cleek,
Jess Coleman, Shelly
Combs, Ben Nease,
Jan Schmoll, Beth
Shaver, and Christie
Smith, met for the ﬁrst
time on June 1.
Proceeds from the
2018 event will go
toward the auditorium
renovations at the
Senior Center.
“At that meeting
the committee determined that the Meigs
County Senior Community Center will
again be the recipient
of the funds raised at
the 2018 MAC Breaka-Thon. This time the
goal is to raise money
to help complete
the Senior Center’s
auditorium. A facility
which can beneﬁt the
entire county,” said
Nease.
Following the 2017
Break-a-Thon, Nease
expressed his gratitude for the support
of the community in
making the event a

success.
“We would like to
thank everyone who
made the break-athon happen today!
We raised $10,154.85
… We couldn’t have
asked for a better turn
out. We had such a
great time with everyone and we hope you
did too,” read a post
on the Bitanga’s Martial Arts Center Facebook page.
“We are overwhelmed by the
outstanding support
of our community in
raising money for the

Meigs County Senior
Center,” read a second
post.
Top participants in
the 2017 event were
Garrett Smith, ﬁrst
place; Matthew Bell,
second place; Raeline
Reeves, third place;
Caden O’Neil, fourth
place; and Billy Goble,
ﬁfth place.
Strategies for making the 2018 Breaka-Thon a “bigger and
better” event are being
researched for the
next meeting which
will be held on July 27
at 6 p.m.

POMEROY — A man
wanted for a break-in and
theft of a vehicle in Meigs
County was
taken into
custody
in Mason
County.
Meigs
County
Sheriff
Keith Wood McDonald
reports
that on June 8, Harley
McDonald was taken
into custody in Mason
County, W.Va. by Sheriff’s
Deputies and the West
Virginia State Police.
Harley McDonald was
being sought after for the
Breaking and Entering at
Fox’s Pizza Den in Rutland, OH as well as stealing a vehicle in the Village
of Pomeroy and cutting
off his ankle bracelet from
Meigs County Common
Pleas Court.
Sheriff Wood stated in
a news release that his
ofﬁce received a tip of
Harley McDonald being
spotted at the Storys Run
Gas Station along State
Route 7 in Middleport.
The caller stated Harley
McDonald and an unidentiﬁed male were driving
an older model red Ford
truck that had logs in the
bed of the truck.
Deputy King, Deputy
Campbell, and Sgt.
Stewart responded to
the area and were unable
to locate the truck.
Due to the information received, deputies
believed that McDonald
and the unidentiﬁed
male were attempting to
sell the logs in the area.
Deputies received further
information and believed
McDonald to be headed
to Mason County.
The Mason County
Sheriff’s Ofﬁce located
the truck leaving a logging business in Mason
County and initiated a
trafﬁc stop on the vehicle
along Route 2 in Mason
County. McDonald initially refused to provide
any information to Mason
County Deputies however
he did cooperate and was
taken into custody without incident.

OHIO VALLEY — Buckeye Hills
Regional Council and its Aging
and Disability Division are raising
awareness of an emerging problem
this June 15 — the problem of
elder abuse.
“On June 15, we are asking
individuals to wear something
purple to help raise awareness of
the need to protect our elders,”
said Buckeye Hills Aging Director
Jennifer Westfall. “No community
is immune from the issue of abuse
and neglect of the elderly. We
remain concerned that for every
case that gets reported, as many as
23 others go unreported.”

Trump sees ‘new future’ for North Korea
By Zeke Miller, Catherine
Lucey, Josh Lederman
and Foster Klug
Associated Press

SINGAPORE —
President Donald Trump
wrapped up his ﬁve-hour
nuclear summit with
North Korean leader
Kim Jong Un with surprisingly warm words
and hope for “a bright
new future” for Kim’s
isolated and impoverished nation. Yet he
immediately faced pointed questions at home
about whether he got little and gave away much
in his push to make a
deal with the young
autocrat — including an
agreement to halt U.S.
military exercises with
South Korea.
Meeting with staged
ceremony on a Singapore island, Trump and
Kim signed a joint statement Tuesday agreeing to work toward a
denuclearized Korean
Peninsula, although the
timeline and tactics were
left unclear. Trump later
promised to end “war
games,” with ally South
Korea, a concession to
Kim that appeared to
catch the Pentagon and
Seoul government off
guard and sowed confusion among Trump’s
Republican supporters in

Evan Vucci | AP

U.S. President Donald Trump holds up the document that he
and North Korea leader Kim Jong Un signed at the Capella
resort on Sentosa Island on Tuesday in Singapore. The most
tangible outcome of the summit between President Donald
Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un seems to be a
commitment to recover the remains of U.S. military personnel
missing in action and presumed dead from the Korean War.

Washington.
The head-scratching
was a ﬁtting end for
a meeting marked by
unpredictability. The
face to face was unthinkable just months earlier
as the two leaders traded
insults and nuclear
threats. In agreeing to
the summit, Trump
risked granting Kim his
long-sought recognition on the world stage
in hopes of ending the
North’s nuclear program.
While progress on the
nuclear question was
murky, the leaders spent
the public portions of
their ﬁve hours together
expressing optimism and
making a show of their

new relationship. Trump
declared he and Kim had
developed “a very special
bond.” He gave Kim a
glimpse of the presidential limousine. Kim, for
his part, said the leaders
had “decided to leave the
past behind” and promised: “The world will see
a major change.”
Soon, Kim was on
a plane headed home,
while a clearly ebullient Trump held forth
for more than an hour
before the press on what
he styled as a historic
achievement to avert the
prospect of nuclear war.
Before leaving himself,
Trump tossed out pronouncements on U.S.

alliances, human rights
and the nature of the
accord that he and Kim
had signed.
The details of how
and when the North
would denuclearize
appear yet to be determined, as are the nature
of the unspeciﬁed
“protections” Trump is
pledging to Kim and his
government.
The Singapore accord
largely amounts to an
agreement to continue
discussions, echoing previous public statements
and commitments. It
does not, for instance,
include an agreement to
take steps toward ending the technical state
of warfare between the
U.S. and North Korea.
Nor does it detail
plans for North Korea
to demolish a missile
engine testing site, a
concession Trump said
he’d won, or Trump’s
promise to end military
exercises in the South
while negotiations
between the U.S. and
the North continue.
Trump cast that decision as a cost-saving
measure, but also called
the exercises “inappropriate” while talks
continue. North Korea
has long objected to
the drills as a security
threat.

New data released on Hurricane Maria deaths
By Danica Coto
Associated Press

SAN JUAN, Puerto
Rico — Eight days
after Hurricane Maria
devastated Puerto Rico,
Efrain Perez felt a pain
in his chest.
Doctors near his small
town sent him to Puerto
Rico’s main hospital for
emergency surgery for
an aortic aneurysm. But
when the ambulance
pulled into the parking
lot in the capital, San
Juan, after a more than
two-hour drive, a doctor
ran out to stop it.
“He said, ‘Don’t bring
him in here, I can’t
care for him. I don’t
have power. I don’t
have water. I don’t have
an anesthesiologist,’”
Perez’s daughter, Nerybelle, recalled.
The 95-year-old Perez
died as the ambulance
drove him back to
southwestern Puerto
Rico but he is not
included in the island’s
ofﬁcial hurricane death
toll of 64 people, a
ﬁgure at the center of
a growing legal and
political ﬁght over the
response to the Category 4 storm that hit
Puerto Rico on Sept.

Nerybelle Perez holds a picture of her father, World War II veteran
Efrain Perez, who died inside an ambulance after being turned
away from the largest public hospital in Guaynabo, Puerto
Rico, when it had no electricity or water, days after Hurricane
Maria passed, Perez died as the ambulance drove him back to
southwest Puerto Rico but he is not included in the island’s
official hurricane death toll of 64 people, a figure at the center
of a growing legal and political fight over the official response to
the Category 4 storm that hit Puerto Rico on Sept. 20.

20, 2017.
Facing at least three
lawsuits demanding
more data on the death
toll, Puerto Rico’s government released new
information on Tuesday
that added detail to the
growing consensus that
hundreds or even thousands of people died as
an indirect result of the
storm.
According to the new
data, there were 1,427
more deaths from September to December
2017 than the average
for the same time peri-

od over the previous
four years. Additionally,
September and October
had the highest number
of deaths of any months
since at least 2013.
But the statistics don’t
indicate whether the
storm and its aftermath
contributed to the additional deaths.
The Puerto Rican
government says it
believes more than 64
people died as a result
of the storm but it
will not raise its ofﬁcial toll until George
Washington University

completes a study of the
data being carried out
on behalf of the U.S. territory.
The issue is clouded
by the fact that the
federal government
and U.S. states and
territories have no
uniform deﬁnition
of what constitutes a
storm-related death.
The National Hurricane
Center counts only
deaths directly caused
by a storm, like a person killed by a falling
tree. It does not count
indirect deaths, like
someone whose medical equipment fails in a
blackout.
Puerto Rico began by
counting mostly direct
deaths, with some
indirect ones. Then it
stopped updating its toll
entirely while it waits
for the George Washington University study,
due later this summer.
The death count has
had political implications. Visiting Puerto
Rico on Oct. 3, two
weeks after the storm
hit, President Donald
Trump asked Gov.
Ricardo Rossello what
the death toll was.
“Sixteen,” Rossello
answered.

Rio welcomes
Fulbright Scholar
RIO GRANDE — The University of Rio Grande
and Rio Grande Community College recently hosted Fulbright Scholar Dr. Anastasiya Luzgina, deputy director at Belarusian Economic Research and
Outreach Center (BEROC), to present her lecture,
“FinTech Development and Cryptocurrency Market
Regulation,” to campus.
Luzgina, who is from the Republic of Belarus,
gave a speech that included an in-depth look at FinTech, a new ﬁnancial system format that is adaptive
to information technologies and innovations, and
how it works to create easier digital operations for
investment banks and their clients. She also provided details about how the program has been used
to improve the economy of Belarus. Luzgina is one
of the heads for the National Bank’s FinTech Market Development research project and said she ﬁrst
became interested in the program because of past
research in related ﬁelds.
“Today ﬁnancial technology is a very popular
topic, and my previous researches were related
to ﬁnancial development, monetary systems and
monetary integration. I saw Fintech’s transformation on the current ﬁnancial system, so I decided to
research this sphere,” Luzgina said. “The FinTech
market here in the United States is more developed
compared with countries such as Belarus, but there
are some ﬁelds within the FinTech sphere that can
be very interesting such as cryptocurrencies. Belarus is the ﬁrst country to ofﬁcially adopt legislation
for the cryptocurrency market, and I think it’s
important to share that experience with America.”
The Fulbright Scholar Program is an international scholarship that works to provide academic
exchanges between the United States and other
countries to bring understanding, awareness, and
problem solving to global concerns. The program,
which began in 1946, includes scholar exchanges
with 155 countries around the world. Luzgina said
she enjoys sharing her work and the experiences
she has had through the exchange program.
“The Fulbright Program is the most famous
exchange program for students, scholars, professors
and artists all over the world. It gives me not only
good research experiences, but also rich life experiences because I can travel and meet many people
while visiting the US. I’m very proud to be able to
participate in the program,” Luzgina said. “It’s very
important to me to present my research experience
with FinTech and get feedback from other scholars
and professors. I also want to help scholars, students and the public understand more about FinTech and cryptocurrency.”
FinTech includes many forms of digital and
online banking and is a growing opportunity for
businesses and banks. Dr. Richard Sax said he was
excited to have Luzgina on campus to share more
about ﬁnancial technologies with Southeastern
Ohio.
“It was an honor to welcome Dr. Luzgina to our
campus and learn more about FinTech and cryptocurrency. Many people have heard of these types of
ﬁnancial technologies in our globalized world, and
it’s important for us to gain a better understanding
of this topic,” Sax said. “We are grateful to the Fulbright Scholar Exchange Program for allowing Dr.
Luzgina to present her work here at Rio.”
Luzgina said she enjoyed the opportunity to
share her experiences with the Rio Community.
She is a graduate of the Belarusian State Economic
University, Faculty of Banking and Finance, and has
a PhD in Economics. In November and December
of 2015, she participated in the BOFIT visiting
researchers program at the Institute for Economies
in Transition of the Bank of Finland. Luzgina was
also invited to the International Monetary Fund
and World Bank CSO Fellowship in 2016.

It requires states to maintain
accurate voter registration lists
but also says they should protect
against inadvertently removing
properly registered voters.
Since 1994, Ohio has used
voters’ inactivity after two years
— encompassing one federal
election cycle — to trigger a process that could lead to removal
from the voter rolls. That process
has been used under both Democratic and Republican secretaries
of state, but groups representing
voters did not sue until 2016,
under current Republican Secretary of State Jon Husted.
The legal action followed what
the lawsuit called “a massive
statewide purge” of voters in the
summer of 2015.
In Pennsylvania, the process
isn’t triggered unless people have
failed to vote for ﬁve years, or
two general election cycles. The
state has no plans to change that,
Department of State spokeswoman Wanda Murren said.
The existing system hasn’t
been drawing complaints, said
Ray Murphy, a spokesman for
Keystone Votes, a liberal coalition that advocates for changes
to Pennsylvania election law.
But he said the group will watch
the Legislature closely for any
signs that lawmakers will want
to follow Ohio’s more stringent
method.
Ballot access is a frequent
battleground for Democrats and
Republicans, but it’s not always a
neatly partisan issue.
In Oregon, for example, Republican Secretary of State Dennis
Richardson last year expanded
the period for removing people
from the rolls from ﬁve years of
non-voting to 10 years.

voters off the rolls. In addition
to Oklahoma, Georgia, Montana,
Oregon, Pennsylvania and West
Virginia have laws similar to
Ohio’s.
But even Republican-led states
where ofﬁcials are concerned
about voter fraud may be wary
when it comes to following the
Ohio model.
One hurdle is likely to come
from local governments, where
election administrators would
have to deal with disgruntled
voters and manage an increase in
the number of people placed on
inactive voter lists, said Myrna
Perez, who has studied voter list
practices in her role as deputy
director of the Brennan Center’s
Democracy Program.
“Using one election as an indicator is going to lead to a whole
lot of false positives,” she said.
“There are plenty of states that
clean their voter rolls successfully without being as aggressive
as Ohio.”
West Virginia is more lenient
in targeting inactive voters than
Ohio. Among other things, it
requires counties in the year following a presidential election to
mail an address conﬁrmation to
people who have not voted in any
election during the previous four
years.
Julie Archer of the watchdog
West Virginia Citizen Action
Group said the process appears
to be working as it should.
“There is not a need to do
something more aggressive,” she
said.
The controversy over Ohio’s
approach arose from apparently conﬂicting mandates in
the National Voter Registration
Act, which became law in 1993.

ATLANTA (AP) — A U.S.
Supreme Court ruling has
cleared the way for states to take
a tougher approach to maintaining their voter rolls, but will
they?
Ohio plans to resume its process for removing inactive voters
after it was afﬁrmed in Monday’s
5-4 ruling. It takes a particularly
aggressive approach that appears
to be an outlier among states.
Few appear eager to follow.
“Our law has been on the
books. It hasn’t changed, and it
isn’t changing,” said Oklahoma
Election Board spokesman Bryan
Dean.
At issue is when a state begins
the process to notify and ultimately remove people from the
rolls after a period of non-voting.
In most states with similar laws,
like Oklahoma, that process
begins after voters miss two or
more federal elections.
In Ohio, it starts if voters
sit out a two-year period that
includes just one federal election. They are removed from the
rolls if they fail to vote over the
following four years or do not
return an address-conﬁrmation
card.
Opponents of the laws say
their intent is to purge people
from the rolls, particularly minorities and the poor who tend to
vote Democratic. Supporters say
voters are given plenty of chances to keep their active status and
that the rules adhere to federal
law requiring states to maintain
accurate voter rolls.
Democrats and voting rights
groups have expressed concern
that other states will be emboldened by the ruling and adopt
more aggressive tactics to kick

Byus to play in N-S softball game

Justify

in Triple
Crown

Scott Jones | OVP Sports

Recent graduate Kelsie Byus will represent Point Pleasant one final time on Thursday during the 2018 West Virginia North-South softball all-star game being held
at the Buffalo High School Softball Complex in Putnam County. Byus — a four-year starter with the Lady Knights’ program and a future West Virginia State Yellow
Jacket — is the Ohio Valley Publishing area’s lone participant in the annual event, which starts at 10:30 a.m. with a home run derby competition that will be followed
by specialized events including fastest arm, sprints and accuracy tests. Byus produced team-highs of 30 RBIs and 10 doubles to go along with a .455 batting average.
The senior third baseman hit two homers, had 46 hits and also scored 33 runs this spring for the 19-8 Lady Knights.

From the ice to the green, NHL ref makes US Open debut
SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. (AP) — Garrett Rank is trading skates for spikes on
a stage far larger than anything he has
experienced.
No one plays Shinnecock Hills on ice.
This week is not about blue lines and
high-sticking. It’s about green fairways and
lag putting.
Rank’s day job ended two months ago
when he ﬁnished working the ﬁrst round
of the Stanley Cup playoffs. That left
Rank, an NHL referee for the last three
years, enough time to qualify for his ﬁrst
U.S. Open.
“The reaction from the hockey community has been huge,” Rank said Monday. “I
think every ofﬁcial on our staff sent me a
text and congratulated me and said they’d
be following along and are really proud of
me. I even had a few phone calls asking if
it was me, like if that was the same Garrett

Rank. I don’t know too many other people
with the same name. But yeah, that’s me.
I’m going to the U.S. Open.”
The fairway isn’t really an escape for the
30-year-old Canadian. Sure, it’s quieter.
There is less surrounding chaos. There are
no whistles — any penalties typically are
called by the players themselves.
Rank is simply here to play. The intensity is no different.
“You have to deal with the pressure of
making a call — or I guess the pressure
of making a wrong call — (and) you deal
with the pressure of making a bad shot in
golf,” he said. “And you have to be really
decisive as well. Decisive in the decisions
you make about what shot you want to
hit, and then obviously you have to make
a decision in about a split second if you’re
going to call a penalty or not.”
Rank made it to Shinnecock with a pair

of 71s at Ansley Golf Club in Georgia,
with fellow NHL referee Dan O’Rourke as
his caddie. He earned one of three spots.
“What a dream come true,” Rank said.
Rank’s older brother, Kyle Rank, will be
on the bag at the U.S. Open. Kyle caddied
for Garrett two years ago at the Canadian
Open and plays leisurely himself.
Their father, Rich Rank, was also a
hockey referee.
So, Garrett Rank has been a mix of
hockey and golf since he was a kid. He
even played both at the University of
Waterloo in Ontario.
But then Rank was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2011, putting his athletic
plans on hold at 22 years old. He caught
it early and was declared cancer-free that
same year. Ultimately, he trained as a

LOUISVILLE, Ky.
(AP) — Triple Crown
winner Justify returned
to Churchill Downs for a
little rest Monday, arriving just before a thunderstorm and greeted
by camera-clicking fans
intent on getting a shot
of horse racing’s newest
superstar.
A crowd watched the
chestnut colt with a white

New York.
Assistant trainer Jimmy
Barnes walked Justify
outside Barn 33. He said
the horse traveled well
and will be “just taking
it easy” for a few days
before this weekend’s celebration and his return to
California.
“He’ll walk at least
the next three days, as
long as he’ll allow us to,”
Barnes said. “Then we’ll
see which direction we
need to head as far as
training.”
Justify became the
13th Triple Crown champion with Saturday’s 1

the Belmont Stakes that
improved him to 6-0

run follows that of 2015

Telemundo hopes viewers like World Cup better in Spanish
NEW YORK (AP) —
Andres Cantor screamed
“Goal!” for 38 seconds,
four fortissimo shrieks of
shock, elation and hysteria that exceeded even the
usual volcanic standard
set by the Pavarotti of the
pitch. Getting ready to
broadcast its ﬁrst World
Cup, Telemundo hopes
his huge-capacity lungs
persuade American viewers that soccer is better in
Spanish.
“I never time myself,”
the ﬁve-time Emmy
Award-winning broadcaster said. “If I can have
three new people watch
soccer because they have
this crazy announcer
that goes nuts when a
goal is scored and that’s
what they think about,
but they’re watching the
game, I’m happy for the
game.”
Alongside with the
competition on the ﬁeld
will be the battle for
American viewers of an
audience likely to shrink
because of earlier U.S.
kickoff times than four
years ago —and because
this will be the ﬁrst World
Cup since 1986 that won’t
have a United States
team competing. ESPN,
ESPN2 and ABC averaged 3.5 million viewers
for 48 group-stage games
four years ago, boosted
by a 13.4 million average
for the three ﬁrst-round
games involving the
Americans.
Fox acquired U.S. English-language television
rights for three World
Cups starting with this
year’s championship in
Russia and hired mostly
American commentators
to differentiate itself from
the mostly British voices
employed in 2010 and
2014 by ESPN, which
broadcast the last six
tournaments.
Telemundo, part of
Comcast Corp.’s NBCUniversal Inc., took over
U.S. Spanish-language
rights from Univision,
where Cantor called
World Cups in 1990, ‘94
and ‘98 before switching
networks.
“It’s disingenuous for
us or anybody to say that
it doesn’t matter that the
U.S. isn’t there,” said
Fox analyst Alexi Lalas,
who worked three World

Cups for ESPN before
switching in December
2014. “Having said that,
as the biggest party in the
world, I think it’s going
to overtake some people,
and I think people are
going to be introduced
to teams that maybe
they wouldn’t, to players they wouldn’t and
they’re going to exposed
to stories that maybe they
wouldn’t.”
Fox is planning more
than 320 hours of broadcast television and over
1,000 hours including
digital, according to
David Neal, the network’s
World Cup executive producer. After the U.S. was
eliminated in qualifying
last October, Fox decided
to base four of its six
announce teams at its Los
Angeles studios, where
they will call matches off
monitors. John Strong
and Stuart Holden will
call games from stadiums in Russia, as will JP
Dellacamera and Tony
Meola.
Eight of Fox’s 12
match commentators are
American, including Aly
Wagner as the ﬁrst female
game analyst for a men’s
World Cup on U.S. television.
“For us it’s a celebration
of the growth of the game
in the United States,”
Neal said. “You want
American voices, I think,
because that’s what’s
familiar to Americans and
their ears.”
Telemundo, using the
marketing power of many
NBCUniversal networks,
wants to attract viewers
with a different sound:
Cantor’s cantabile con
brio. His calls of Carli
Lloyd’s 54-yard goal in
the 2015 Women’s World
Cup ﬁnal and of Landon
Donovan’s stoppage-tie
score that advanced the
U.S. in 2010 are indelible.
NBC aired a 10-second
ad of Cantor shouting
“Goal!” during the Super
Bowl that was seen by
102 million English-language viewers and 13 million Hispanics. He called
a goal by Minnesota’s
Eric Staal during an NHL
telecast of NBC, and
Arlo White did a Cantor
impersonation during the
ﬁnal weekend of NBC’s

but the few public numbers available suggest tough
times in the second year of his father’s presidency.
Trump and his brother Donald Trump Jr. opened
the clubhouse to cheers at the Trump Golf Links at
Ferry Point in the Bronx after arriving by the Trump
helicopter near the 18th hole. They hope the new
building that replaced a temporary tent at the 3-yearold course will boost its fortunes.
Data from New York City obtained in a Freedom of
Information request by The Associated Press show
revenue at the city-owned course in the shadow
of the Whitestone Bridge fell 7 percent last year,
echoing some disappointing ﬁgures at other Trump
resorts.
But just how Trump’s golf business in general is
faring is difﬁcult to tell, given that the company is
private. The Trump Organization has made a big bet
on golf in the past decade, spending more than a billion dollars buying and developing courses it owns,
licenses or manages at 17 resorts around the world,
including ones in Dubai, Scotland and Ireland.
Eric Trump, leaning against a clubhouse bar that
featured Trump Chardonnay and Meritage wines,
said revenue for all Trump courses was up last year
and business was “proﬁtable.”
“It’s a big bet, but it’s paid off,” he said. “We
bought well, at good prices and the best locations.”
The Trump Organization’s golf courses generated
$221 million in revenue last year, according to the
president’s latest ﬁnancial disclosure report. A comparable ﬁgure from the year earlier is unavailable,
and Eric Trump wouldn’t give any numbers.
The second-oldest son of the president said one
of the company’s biggest courses — the Doral in
Miami, which generated $75 million in revenue last
year — is doing especially well.

Alexi Lalas, left, Aly Wagner and Fernando Fiore, the broadcast team for Fox Sports’ coverage of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, face a battle for
American viewers likely to shrink because of earlier U.S. kickoff times than four years ago — and because this will be the first World Cup
since 1986 without a United States team. On top of that, the Spanish-language network Telemundo is trying to lure Americans because
it says the World Cup is better in Spanish.

in May.
Cantor hopes he
attracts “people that
didn’t like soccer before,
wasn’t that enthusiastic
about soccer because they
thought it was a boring,
low-scoring game.”
“All of a sudden
because they hear somebody calling game a different way than they’re
used to, they get hooked,”
he said.
Now 55, Cantor attended his ﬁrst World Cup
at home in Argentina in
1978, watching all of the
host’s matches and viewing the ﬁnal from the last
row of the Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires.
He admired Jose Maria
Munoz’s broadcasts growing up, and Chick Hearn’s
after moving to the U.S.
in 1979. After working
for a pair of magazines
at the 1986 tournament
in Mexico, Cantor called
three World Cups for Univision starting in 1990.
After switching to Telemundo in 2000, he called
four World Cups for the
Futbol de Primera radio
network, of which he has

an ownership stake.
“He’s the most authentic,” Telemundo Deportes
President Ray Warren
said. “One of the things
we hear a lot and say a lot
is that it’s better in Spanish, es mas mejor en espanol, and so I think what’s
happened with everything
that’s gone on is there
might be more people
willing to try to discover,
that because there is no
real magnetism to the
English-language coverage.”
Bill Bergoﬁn, the senior
vice president of brand
and content development
at Telemundo Deportes,
said coverage will be promoted on “Today,” ”NBC
Nightly News,” ”Late
Night with Seth Meyers,”
”Morning Joe” and even
Syfy — outlets Univision
never had available.
“I’d do the same thing
if I was them,” Neal said.
“I really think at the end
of any analysis, it’s good
for us if Telemundo does
well. And frankly it’s good
for them if we do well. It
not only raises the proﬁle
of the sport in the United

States, but I think it will
ultimately draws viewers
to both of us.”
Germany’s win over
Argentina in the 2014
ﬁnal was watched by
17.3 million viewers on
ABC and 9.2 million on
Univision, and the 64
matches on ABC, ESPN
and ESPN2 averaged 4.5
million viewers, up from
3.3 million in 2010.
This year’s tournament
in Russia has far earlier
kickoff times on U.S. television that the 2014 tournament in Brazil, starting
at 6 a.m. Eastern.
Four years ago, ESPN
televised matches starting
at noon Eastern.
Fox and Telemundo
hope story lines involving Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar,
Mexico and Iceland will
persuade viewers to turn
in no matter how early.
“The United States
not qualifying for the
2018 World Cup created
a major opportunity
for Telemundo,” said
Marc Ganis, president
of the consulting ﬁrm
Sportscorp Ltd. “The

language barrier for
soccer broadcasts, particularly for the World
Cup, isn’t as high as it is
for other sports and for
the 2018 World Cup it’s
even lower with the U.S.
national team not qualifying.”
Telemundo will broadcast every match from
Russia, most from stadiums and some from the
International Broadcast
Center in Moscow. Cantor works many games
from Miami during the
Premier League season,
but Cantor says the
onsite experience is key
for him.
”Being in the stadium
gives you a different perpective altogether. Not
only can you anticipate
what’s going to happen,
but you get the broader
pictures of the tactics
of the game,” he said.
“When I’m calling games
off tube, all I see is the
same thing that people
see at home, so I don’t
see if Messi is bowing his
head or if he’s holding
his right thigh because
he’s hurt.”

Olympic skier Bode Miller’s toddler daughter drowns in pool
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The
19-month-old daughter of U.S.
Olympic skier Bode Miller
drowned in a Southern California swimming pool, authorities
said Monday.
Emeline Miller died at an
Orange County hospital Sunday, the day after paramedics
tried unsuccessfully to revive
her after the drowning incident.
“We are beyond devastated,”
Miller said in an Instagram
post that showed several pho-

tos of the blonde, blue-eyed,
chubby-cheeked toddler.
In a video, Emmy, as she was
known, was being kissed on the
check by her mother Morgan,
a professional beach volleyball
player, as she repeatedly said,
“Hi Dada.”
One photo showed her covered in suds in a tub and another showed her smiling as she
pushed two baby dolls in a pink
stroller on a street with large
homes in the background.
“Never in a million years did

we think we would experience
a pain like this,” Miller said in
the post. “Her love, her light,
her spirit will never be forgotten. Our little girl loved life and
lived it to its fullest every day.”
The death was under investigation, Orange County sheriff’s
spokeswoman Carrie Braun
said.
Paramedics were called to
a home in the upscale enclave
of Coto de Caza just before
6:30 p.m. Saturday, said Capt.
Tony Bommarito of the Orange

Mickelson loves the US Open setup
SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. (AP)
— Phil Mickelson believes Shinnecock Hills is one of the best
setups he’s ever seen for a U.S.
Open.
At least for 17 of the holes.
The course where Mickelson
twice contended on Sunday
has been lengthened by some
450 yards. That doesn’t bother
Lefty, especially the 14th hole,
which has been stretched by an
additional 76 yards from 2004. It
now is 519 yards, the longest of
the par 4s.
Mickelson, who also has a golf
course design company, likes it
when the hard holes are harder
and the easy holes are easier.
“So when they take 14, which
is a very hard par 4, and they
make it harder and move the tee
back, I actually like that a lot
because it allows for the players
that are playing well to make up
strokes on the ﬁeld by making
pars,” he said.
He also noted that the front of
the green is open, allowing shots
to bounce onto the green, which
makes it fair for everyone.
“It’s a hard par,” he said. “But
if you make a par there, you’ll
make half a shot up on the ﬁeld.”
One other hole was lengthened by 76 yards — the par-5
16th, which now is 619 yards.
With a prevailing wind into the
players, and the deep bunkers
around the green, it’s likely a
three-shot hole for everyone in
the ﬁeld.
Mickelson isn’t a big fan of
this change.
“To move the tee back to 620
yards, which is the total M.O.
of the USGA — they do it every
course — I don’t agree with,”

Lynne Sladk | AP file

Phil Mickelson doesn’t need to be reminded that this is his 27th appearance in the
U.S. Open, more than any of the 156 players at Shinnecock Hills and needs this title
to complete the career Grand Slam. He wouldn’t want to be reminded that 65 players,
including the last four major champions, were not even born when Mickelson was low
amateur in his first U.S. Open in 1990 at Medinah. “I just can’t believe that time has
flown by so fast,” he said Monday.

Mickelson said. “I think we
should have some birdie opportunities. And to eliminate one
of the very few that are out here
and make it a difﬁcult par is not
something I agree with. But I’ve
developed kind of a game plan
on how to play that hole most
effectively relative to the ﬁeld,
and it won’t need to be very
much under par.”
By relative to the ﬁeld, Mickelson said only that he has a plan
to give himself a good chance at
birdie without risking a score
higher than par. He believes not
dropping a shot on the 16th will
enable him to gain on the ﬁeld.
Mickelson concedes that setting up a golf course for the U.S.
Open is not easy. He just hopes
the USGA doesn’t bring too
much luck into the equation.

“The difﬁculty is, when you
dream of a championship as a
child … and you dream of winning these tournaments as a
child and you work hours and
hours and you ﬂy in days and
days and do all this prep work,
and then you are left to chance
the outcome, as opposed to skill,
that’s a problem,” he said.
He cited the par-3 seventh
hole as an example.
At the last U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills, the green was
so fast and brittle that shots
wouldn’t stay on the green. The
USGA felt it had no choice but
to spray a light mist after every
other group that came through.
Mickelson says the decision
for when to spray the greens was
based on the scores of the previous group.

referee to remain
involved in hockey, and
that became his career.
Golf became something
he enjoyed during free
time.
“Cancer for me was
kind of a blessing in
disguise,” Rank said.
“It gave me a way better approach to hockey
and golf and kind of
changed my attitude
that, hey, maybe that
bad shot isn’t really that
bad or, hey, maybe this
missed call really isn’t
that bad at the end of
the day.”

Perspective in pressure.
Or just perspective in
general.
Golf doesn’t move
as quickly as hockey,
although Rank kept that
in context.
“If you’ve ever seen
any referee skate out
there, I don’t know how
fast we’re really going,”
Rank said. “The players are moving fast, but
we’re fairly stationary,
moving in a small area.”
A golf course is anything but small. The
shortest hole at Shinnecock, the par-3 17th,
is 180 yards. That’s 540
feet.
A hockey rink is 200
feet long.

But zoom into the
player and size is irrelevant. The strokes can
translate no matter area
of play.
“The slap shot is a
very similar move,”
Rank said. “If you watch
my action, I kind of
laterally slide through
it a little bit. I think the
hand-eye coordination
in playing hockey, it just
bodes well to the game
of golf.”
On the ice, Rank has
ofﬁciated 187 career
NHL games. He made
his debut in 2015 and
was promoted to fulltime in 2016.
Inside the ropes, Rank
has competed in 15
USGA events. His best

result was in 2012 when
he lost in the ﬁnal U.S.
Mid-Amateur Championship, one match
away from making it to
the Masters. Rank is,
however, a three-time
winner of the Canadian
Mid-Amateur title.
“I got a question

to ﬁnish in the top 10 in

Cup Finals,” Rank said,
“and I answered with

“I said I’d save the

15 years down the road
when my golf game
wasn’t as strong.”
