Remembering Pearl Harbor 75 years later
Ceremonies planned across the Ohio Valley
By Sarah Hawley

Dec. 7, 1941, Pearl Harbor.

OHIO VALLEY — Unlike
Sept. 11, 2001, many in the
Ohio Valley are not old enough
to remember Dec. 7, 1941, but
for those who are, they have
never forgotten where they
were when learning of the
attacks, or the impact that day
had on their lives.
Just before 8 a.m. in Hawaii,
the ﬁrst of the Japanese bombers began to attack the United
States Navy base in Pearl Harbor. The two-hour aerial raid
destroyed or heavily damaged
21 ships and 320 aircraft, kill-

ing 2,390 people and wounding 1,178 others.
Word of the attack may not
have spread as quickly that day
in 1941 as it did in 2001, but
none the less, the impact was
immediate and far reaching.
The day after Pearl Harbor
was bombed, President Franklin D. Roosevelt appeared
before a joint session of Congress.
“Yesterday, Dec. 7, 1941, a
date which will live in infamy,”
he paused and then continued,
“the United States of America
was suddenly and deliberately
attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.”

Following those words,
Congress passed a resolution
declaring war on Japan. In
the days that followed, the
U.S. would enter the war on a
second front, as Germany, an
ally of Japan, declared war on
the U.S.
Now, 75 years after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor,
ceremonies are scheduled to be
held in the Ohio Valley, across
the nation and in Pearl Harbor,
to remember that day and the
lives lost in the attacks.

Display, bell choir highlight Chester Christmas
By Jessica Marcum
Special to the Sentinel

CHESTER — The
Eastern Bell Choir and a
display of Santas greeted
visitors to the Chester
Courthouse on Saturday.
The Chester Shade
Historical Association
held its annual open
house at the Chester
Courthouse and Chester
Academy buildings on
Saturday, Dec. 3 with a
holiday theme.
The courthouse was
decorated for the holiday
season with a display of
Santa Clauses, provided
by local collectors. Linda
Blosser, Judy Buckley,
Sheila Curtis, the Dottie Musser Family, and
Jim Stewart all provided
Santa Clauses for the
display.
The highlight of the

day was a holiday performance by the Eastern
Bell Choir. The choir celebrated its 16th appearance at the holiday open
house with Christmas
songs, ending with a
rousing and enthusiastic
round of Jingle Bells.
The group showed off
the techniques they had
learned since school
started in August, and
all of the practice paid
off with a solid, and fun,
performance. The choir
is led by Cris Kuhn.
The Chester Shade
Historical Society was
founded in 1995, with its
goal being the restoration
of the courthouse and
academy buildings. The
Return Jonathan chapter
of the Daughters of the
American Revolution
spearheaded the formation of the association, as

The Eastern Bell Choir performed during the Christmas celebration
on Saturday.

Currently, the building
holds a courtroom, a
museum, and genealogy
center, along with educational facilities. The
Chester Shade Historical
Association hosts the
annual Chester-Shade
Day, and the Ohio Harmonica Championship.

The courthouse is open
on Monday, Wednesday,
Thursday, and Saturday,
from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

GALLIPOLIS — Hear the
warm, rich organ-like sounds of
the tuba-euphonium choir when
musicians from all over the region

This 2 p.m. concert is part of

a nationwide celebration of low
brass music created by Harvey
Phillips and is free and open to the
public. Although TubaChristmas
concerts can be heard all over the
world this time of year, the Ariel’s
acoustics are favorable to low

TubaChristmas concert an extra
special treat for the ears.

is led by tubist Dr. Jason Smith,
professor of tuba at Ohio University, who will be conducting most
of the selections. Guest conductor
this year is Gallipolis resident Tim

CHANTILLY, Va. (AP)
— The tattered Pearl
Harbor survivor looks
every bit of 78, with
weathered skin, rusty
bones and the faded
“U.S. Navy” emblem the
old bird got before the
war.
Gray from age and
years in the service, the
veteran of Dec. 7 sits
with other World War II
antiques, weary and in
need of attention.
But with the 75th
anniversary of the
1941 attack this week,
and commemorations
scheduled in Hawaii and
around the country, this
survivor, like most who

were there that day, has
a story.
The ungainly Navy
airplane at the National
Air and Space Museum’s
Udvar-Hazy Center in
Chantilly, Virginia, is one
of the few original U.S.
aircraft in existence that
ﬂew against the Japanese
armada that day.
Then painted silver
and orange-yellow, with a
bright green tail and red
trim, it was an unlikely
combatant.
Designed as a small
airliner — a “baby clipper” — it was unarmed
and part of a unit called
Utility Squadron One,
which hauled mail, sail-

ors and Navy photographers around the Hawaiian islands.
It had window curtains
and a restroom with
porcelain ﬁxtures. Its top
speed was just over 100
mph.
With Pearl Harbor
a scene of death and
devastation that Sunday
morning, Plane No. 1063
— its insignia a pelican
carrying a mailbag —
was ordered to seek out
the enemy.
For armament, the
28-year-old pilot, Ensign
Wesley Hoyt Ruth, and
his ﬁve-man crew were
issued three World War
I-era riﬂes.

THEIR VIEW

Lessons of Pearl
Harbor and an
‘end to illusions’
By William Inboden
Contributing columnist

As we remember and mourn those servicemen and women who died when Imperial Japan
launched a surprise attack on the American military installations at Pearl Harbor 75 years ago, we
should also remember that was not just one of the
bloodiest strikes on American soil. Pearl Harbor
also marked “an end to illusions,” as the theologian Reinhold Niebuhr described the United
States’ sudden mindfulness of the threats posed
by Japan and Nazi Germany.
Until that day of infamy, many Americans had
held optimistically to certain beliefs about war
and international politics that proved illusory.
Such as, that dictatorship and aggression in
faraway lands did not concern the U.S.; that alliances were a source of vulnerability rather than
strength; and that a strong military made war
more, rather than less, likely.
The classic 1970 movie about Pearl Harbor,
“Tora! Tora! Tora!,” quotes the operation’s mastermind, Japanese Adm. Isoroku Yamamoto, warning
ominously that Japan had “awakened a sleeping
giant.” Whether Yamamoto actually penned those
words remains disputed, but the phrase reﬂected
his sentiments. In the words of historian David
Kennedy, America’s “industrial base and large
population would make it a formidable foe if
it ever mustered the political will to ﬁght, and
probably an invincible foe if the conﬂict were protracted.”
And so it came to pass.
After the attack, we built a globally dominant
arsenal and mobilized a military that, with our
allies, conquered Japan and Germany less than
four years later.
Once awakened, the giant did not return to
its slumber. Rather, the U.S. emerged at the end
of the war as the world’s dominant superpower,
with unprecedented military might and an atomic
monopoly. We also assumed the mantle of global
leadership and spurred the creation of the international system that still shapes the world today.
In the process, America underwent a series
of diplomatic and economic revolutions: from
isolationism to international leadership; from protectionism to promoting an open trading system
and the institutions to manage it; and from disdaining alliances to forming an extensive network
of allies, even with former enemies such as Japan
and Germany.
The Pearl Harbor shock also prompted the creation of the modern American national security
system. Immediately after the war, the Truman
administration, mindful of the intelligence and
policy failures that left us vulnerable to surprise
attacks, partnered with Congress to establish
many of the institutions that still run our foreign
and defense policy today, such as the National
Security Council, the Department of Defense and
the CIA.
In short, as catastrophic as it was at the time,
Pearl Harbor also led directly to what some called
“the American Century,” our nation’s long run of
global leadership that not only redeﬁned our place
in the world, it redeﬁned the shape of the world
itself.
It is something that bears repeating as we prepare to remember the events of Dec. 7, 1941.
Many Americans look at the world now with
the same sense of disquiet that we did 75 years
ago. In the Far East, we see China’s rising power
and North Korea’s nuclear weapons destabilizing
the region. In Eurasia, we see Russian aggression
reminiscent of the Soviet Union. In the Middle
East, we see a region torn asunder by war. On virtually every continent, we see the threat of jihadi
terrorism.
Meanwhile, as a nation, we feel exhausted
and weary, uncertain whether we can or should
continue showing international diplomatic and
economic leadership. Our political leaders in both
parties seem to share this sentiment.
President Barack Obama has voiced frustration
toward our allies and skepticism about our own
ability to inﬂuence the international stage. During
the campaign, Donald Trump differed in tone but
not in substance from Obama, as he also spoke
disparagingly of America’s alliances and our global role. How he will govern remains to be seen,
though fortunately, some of his Cabinet appointments and conversations with foreign leaders
indicate a renewed commitment to international
leadership.
Such is one lesson of Pearl Harbor and its aftermath. Retreating behind our borders does not
render us safe from threats abroad. The world is
a better place, and our nation is more prosperous
and secure, when the United States leads from the
front.
That is as true today as it was in 1941.
William Inboden is executive director of the Clements Center for
National Security and an associate professor at the LBJ School
of Public Affairs at the University of Texas at Austin. He previously
served at the State Department and on the National Security Council
staff in the George W. Bush administration. He wrote this for the
Dallas Morning News.

THEIR VIEW

Remembering Pearl Harbor at 75
By Cal Thomas
Contributing columnist

Only ﬁve of the 335
men who survived the
unprovoked attack that
sunk the USS Arizona
on Dec. 7, 1941 remain
alive. Donald Stratton,
94, is one of them. He
has added to the historical knowledge of that
day and the beginning
of America’s entry into
World War II in a new
book, “All the Gallant
Men: The First Memoir
By a USS Arizona Survivor.”
Typical of so many
men of that era, the book
(written with Ken Gire)
is less about Stratton,
a 19-year-old kid from
a tiny Nebraska town
ravaged by the Great
Depression, and more
about the men with
whom he served.
According to the book,
total casualties at Pearl
Harbor on that fateful
day amounted to 2,403
dead and 1,176 wounded. Many of Stratton’s
shipmates lie interred
in the bowels of the Arizona, which still secretes
oil, a constant reminder
to “never forget.”
People too young to
have known men of that
era, or who never asked
grandparents about their
World War II experience,
will ﬁnd in Stratton’s

book a quality that has
declined in modern times
— modesty. “We were
not extraordinary men,”
he writes. “Truth be told,
most of us had enlisted
because there were precious few jobs to be
found where we lived.”
The isolationist spirit
was strong in 1941.
Here’s Stratton on the
patriotism that overwhelmed isolationism
after the attack: “Love
for country welled up
inside seemingly every
American, coming out in
the songs we sang, in the
movies produced, in the
newspaper articles that
were written. … We were
ordinary men. What was
extraordinary was the
country we loved.”
Compare this sentiment to what we see in
today’s movies, newspaper articles and songs.
Stratton writes, “We
loved who (America)
was, what she stood for.
We loved her for what
she meant to us, and for
what she had given us,
even in those meager
times.”
People of that generation were taught to be
grateful for the little
they had and not to be
envious of others, who
might have more. That’s
another contrast with the
envy-greed-entitlement

“People of that generation were taught to
be grateful for the little they had and not to
be envious of others, who might have more.
That’s another contrast with the envy-greedentitlement spirit of our age.”
— Cal Thomas

spirit of our age.
There have been
numerous accounts of
that awful day, but few
as personal as Stratton’s.
What comes through
as one reads about the
unbelievable cruelty of
“smiling and waving”
Japanese pilots, as they
rained death on a nation
that was ofﬁcially at
peace, was the heroism
of young men who witnessed explosions, ﬂying
body parts, burning oil,
shattered metal and peeling ﬂesh.
Where did that heroism come from? These
were still mostly adolescents whose previous
battles were over acne
and getting a date for a
Saturday night dance.
It is a question raised
by historians and commentators over the years.
The answer is that their
strength was instilled
in them by parents and
the circumstances of
their lives. Doing without material things can
force one to focus on
what matters, such as
developing character and

other virtues that seem
in short supply in today’s
celebrity culture.
“All the Gallant Men”
is deeply personal. Stratton still remembers the
names of many of his
shipmates who died, as
well as those who survived. He brings them
back to life as ghosts
from the past, their
futures snuffed out by
war.
Today we are a divided
nation. Nothing unites
us. We prefer tearing
down to building up, and
suffer for it.
Stratton’s book
reminds us of a better
America, an America
that was strong in character, not just military
power. As president-elect
Donald Trump attempts
to “make America great
again,” he might recall
that true greatness is not
found in external prosperity or military might
alone. Rather, as Donald
Stratton reminds us, it
comes from within.

THEIR VIEW

The case for Bolton as secretary of state
By Eli Lake
Contributing columnist

In most presidential
transitions you can tell
who is likely to get the
job by who has declined
to talk about it with
the press. By this logic,
John Bolton — a retired
diplomat known for his
moustache, love of Ford
Mustangs and loathing
of America’s enemies —
looks like the frontrunner
for secretary of state.
Currently Bolton is, to
use the Trumpian phrase,
a ﬁnalist. Republican
sources tell me that Rudy
Giuliani has had trouble
in the vetting process
because of his past business ties. Mitt Romney
can’t quite bring himself
to give the kind of public
apology the next presi-

dent’s most ardent supporters would demand.
Sen. Bob Corker is
seen as too much of a
squish. Ditto for former
Utah Governor John
Huntsman. And a David
Petraeus nomination
would make a mockery
of the Trump campaign’s
primary attack on Hillary
Clinton for her use of a
private email server.
All of this brings us
to Bolton. To be sure,
he has some liabilities.
Bolton has spoken on
behalf of the People’s
Mujahadin, or MEK, a
cult-like Iranian opposition group that was
designated as a U.S.
terrorist organization
until 2012. Bolton is not
alone here. Democrats
including Howard Dean
and Ed Rendell have all

taken money from the
group’s supporters in
the U.S. So has Giuliani.
Even still, the People’s
Mujahadin getting a foothold in the Trump White
House would not only
complicate U.S. outreach
to Iran (if Trump is even
interested in that), but
also outreach to Iran’s
democratic opposition,
which regards the MEK
as authoritarians in waiting.
Since leaving the
George W. Bush administration, Bolton has also
been far too close with
the nuttier fringes of the
anti-Sharia movement.
For example, he wrote
the forward to Pamela
Geller’s 2010 book, “The
Post-American Presidency.” In case you were
wondering, this treatise

is dedicated to the idea
that Barack Obama actually despises the country
that elected him twice to
the White House.
This kind of thing has
earned Bolton some enemies. Joe Scarborough,
the host of the MSNBC
program “Morning Joe,”
has pointed to the Geller
connection on Twitter.
Republican Sen. Rand
Paul last month pledged
that he would not support Bolton for the top
State Department job.
That’s no small matter. If
the Republican wins the
runoff race in Louisiana
this week, this will give
the GOP 52 Senate votes
to 48 Democrats. The
minority will only need
two more nays to derail a

Bolton nomination.
That has happened
before. In 2005, Democrats blocked Bolton’s
nomination as ambassador to the United
Nations, when Senator
George Voinovich, a
Republican who is now
retired from Congress,
blocked the nomination.
Bolton was appointed in
recess, but he eventually
resigned his position at
the end of 2006 after
Democrats won Congress
in the midterms.
All of that said, there
are strong reasons why
Bolton would be a good
ﬁt for a Trump administration. To start, unlike
the other candidates for
the job, he has signiﬁcant
experience navigating
the State Department.
Trump should expect
resistance from the
foreign-service and diplomatic bureaucracy to
his foreign policy. Bolton
is someone who knows
where the bodies are buried at Foggy Bottom.
Bolton, despite his
undiplomatic reputation,
has also been a successful diplomat. In 1991,
when he was assistant
secretary of state for
international organization affairs, he led the
ﬁght at the U.N. to repeal
resolution 3379, which
said Zionism was racism. That resolution had
passed 72 to 35 in 1975.
In 1991 the General
Assembly revoked it with
a vote of 86 to 46.
In George W. Bush’s
ﬁrst term, when Bolton
served as undersecretary
of state for arms control
and international security, he had three important accomplishments.
To start, Bolton negotiated the U.S. withdrawal
from the Anti-Ballistic
Missile Treaty, which

Christmas

as an annual event honoring his teacher, the late
tubist William J. Bell,
who was born on Christmas Day in 1902. Every
Christmas season, tuba
and euphonium players
of all ages gather to pay
respect to all the great
artists and teachers who
represent their heritage.
Every TubaChristmas
performance features traditional Christmas carols
especially arranged for
low brass by American
composer Alec Wilder,
who died on Christmas
Eve 1980. Through

Wilder, TubaChristmas
concerts pay grateful
tribute to composers
who have embraced
these noble instruments
with solo and ensemble
compositions.
TubaChristmas ensembles attract players from
8 to 80. The sound of the
tuba-euphonium choir
has won over the ears
and hearts of every audience. It is no wonder
that TubaChristmas has
become an established
Christmas tradition in
cities throughout the
world.

more than 250 cities
throughout the United
States and in several
foreign countries. In an
unusual turn of events,
the concert itself is free
to everyone but the participants pay to perform,
as per the request of
Phillips himself, to provide funding to continue
the tradition throughout
the country.

Google hits renewable energy goal

Thielmann, told journalists about how Bolton
pressured analysts to get
intelligence assessments
he wanted.
Bolton also takes a
hard line with rogue
states. He was one of the
most ardent opponents
of Bill Clinton’s nuclear
agreement with North
Korea. After Trump’s
electoral victory this
month, Bolton called
for regime change in
Iran and said he hoped
Trump would abrogate
the nuclear deal with that
regime.
Needless to say, Secretary of State Bolton
would represent a sea
change for U.S. foreign
policy. The man who
currently heads the State
Department, John Kerry,
is in temperament and
ideology Bolton’s opposite. Kerry has bent over
backwards to meet America’s adversaries halfway,
whether it’s in talks with
Russia over Syria, or the
negotiations over the
Iran nuclear deal.
But it’s worth asking
what the Kerry approach
has gotten us. As he ﬁnishes up his tenure, Iran
tests missiles, arrests
Americans and still
demands new concessions from the U.S. China
builds artiﬁcial islands
in the South China Sea.
And Russia continues to
bomb civilians in Syria.
Meanwhile, the Israelis
and Palestinians are further away from a negotiated settlement than they
were when Obama took
ofﬁce.
This is the Obama-Kerry legacy. The presidentelect ran his campaign
promising to take a different approach. In this
respect, he couldn’t ask
for a better secretary of
state than John Bolton.

placed limitations on
U.S. development of missile defense systems. He
managed to pull off this
feat without any immediate consequences for the
U.S.-Russian relationship,
which didn’t begin to
sour until Bush’s second
term.
Bolton was also instrumental in conducting the
ﬁrst round of diplomacy
to exempt U.S. soldiers
from prosecution of the
International Criminal
Court. Bolton did some
arm-twisting to get these
bilateral immunity agreements. He cajoled and
harangued ambassadors,
threatening to cut off
U.S. assistance. In the
end, it worked. More
than 100 countries had
agreed to exempt U.S.
forces from prosecution
to the court by the end of
the Bush administration.
Finally, Bolton is the
architect of an arrangement between U.S. allies
to interdict ships suspected of transporting
weapons of mass destruction. This arrangement,
known as the Proliferation Security Initiative,
survives to this day. A
testament to this is that
President Barack Obama
in his landmark 2009
arms control speech in
Prague praised Bolton’s
brain-child as “an important tool in our efforts to
break up black markets,
detect and intercept
WMD materials in transit, and use ﬁnancial
tools to disrupt this dangerous trade.”
If Trump nominates
Bolton, his critics will
dust off their 2005 playbook against him again.
In his nomination hearing that year, Carl Ford,
who headed the State
Department’sBureau
for Intelligence and
Research, described him
as a “kiss up, kick down
kind of guy.” Another

Opening day ain’t
what it used to
be, and that’s OK
For some hunters the opening day of deer gun
season is more than just a hunt, it is a tradition, a
time to spend with families and friends, an event
that goes far beyond the mere act of hunting. It’s
a time to see old friends, some you might only see
during deer season; it is companionship and camaraderie, tradition and reafﬁrmation of outdoor
values.
Not much may change from yearto-year, but when viewed as dozens
of one-day events going back for
decades, the changes are more evident. Things like the weather, recent
logging, derechos or ice storms,
and nearby construction, are pretty
conspicuous, but changes in habiIn the

development, and gradual changes
Jim
in hunting methods, tools and impleFreeman
ments are more subtle.
For instance, how many people
use smoothbore shotguns loaded with Foster-style
slugs, using the front bead or ventilated rib as
your sight? Not many, but 40-30 years ago that
was the norm.
Old hunters pass away or give up the sport, and
are replaced by newer generations with different
values and ideas. Some old habits may persist – a
favorite old hat, a vest or gun, or hunting location,
but if you look at the big picture, not much really
remains the same.
As I pondered this, I realized that there really
isn’t much that I use now that dates from the “old
days.” The old clothes, deer stands, and even the
trees are gone, lost to time and wear. Remember
check stations? However, some old things carry
on: a vest, some old binoculars and a favorite
knife. Everything else is relatively new.

OVCS rains Oklahoma leads All-Big-12 selections
in 3s in win
By Stephen Hawkins
Associated Press

pboggs@civitasmedia.com

HUNTINGTON, W. Va. — It was simply raining
throughout the Ohio Valley on Tuesday.
On Monday night, however, it was raining
threes for the Ohio Valley Christian School
Defenders — and especially Elijah McDonald.
That’s because a pair of three-point school
records fell for the OVCS boys basketball team at
Covenant Christian, as the Defenders drilled 13
total three-balls en route to capturing a 77-62 victory.
In fact, those 13 threes set a team record for
made three-pointers in a single game.
In addition, the sharp-shooting senior McDonald dialed in for seven trifectas — for a school
record for most made threes by one individual in a
single contest.
McDonald, along with fellow senior Austin
Ragan, combined for 55 of OVCS’ 77 points — as
fellow senior Hollis Morrison chipped in with a
dozen markers.
Ragan racked up 28 points, followed right
behind by McDonald’s 27.
In addition to McDonald’s seven threes on 13
attempts, Ragan and Morrison made three apiece.
Ragan (21 attempts) and McDonald (20
attempts) made 10 total ﬁeld goals apiece, while
Morrison made four ﬁeld goals and Justin Beaver
ﬁnished with two.
Beaver boasted ﬁve points, while Michael Gruber and Asher Peck with a ﬁeld goal apiece — and
Bryce Gruber with a free throw — rounded out
the Defenders’ scoring.
The Defenders shot 44-percent from beyond the
arc, attempting 29 triples altogether.
They were an even 50-percent (15-of-30) from
two-point range, part of 47.5-percent (28-of-59)
for the entire game.
While Ragan registered 5-of-7 free throws, the
remainder of the Defenders only shot 3-of-10 from
the line.
McDonald also dished out seven of the club’s 15
assists, while Ragan recorded ﬁve and Morrison
managed three.
Beaver and Morrison ripped down six of the
squad’s 29 rebounds, while McDonald grabbed
ﬁve while making off with three steals.
Morrison made the team’s only block, as the
Defenders overcame 13 turnovers while collecting
10 takeaways.
OVCS’ three-point barrage actually offset a
respectable shooting night for Covenant, which
was 19-of-37 from two-point range — but just 2-of10 from three.
The hosts hurt themselves as well by sinking
only 18-of-30 free throws.
OVCS, which lost at Calvary Christian 60-47 in
Friday night’s season opener, evened its record to
1-1.
The Defenders’ home opener is set for Thursday
night, as they entertain Cross Lanes Christian at
7:30 p.m.
The matchup will follow the girls game (at 6
p.m.) between the two teams.

Golden Eagles
ground Lady Rebels
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

BELPRE, Ohio — It started, and ended, well at
least for visiting South Gallia on Monday night.
Unfortunately for the Lady Rebels, the middle
two quarters were quite a different story.
That’s because Belpre outscored South Gallia in
that span by a whopping 30-4 count, as the Rebels
fell 47-23 in the Tri-Valley Conference Hocking
Division girls basketball opener.
The Golden Eagles erased a 10-9 deﬁcit following the opening quarter, blitzing South Gallia 13-3
in the second stanza — and an even worse 17-1 in
the third.
Belpre led 22-15 at halftime, then extended the
advantage to 39-14 following three frames.
The Rebels then won the fourth canto — again
by a one-point difference (9-8).
The loss was South Gallia’s ﬁrst of the season,
as it dipped to an even 1-1.
The Golden Eagles, meanwhile, raised their
record to a perfect 3-0.
The Golden Eagles amassed a 19-8 advantage
in total ﬁeld goals, as Cheyenne Barker led Belpre
with 11 points on four ﬁeld goals and 2-of-6 free
throws.
Daisy Cowdery added eight points on four ﬁeld
goals, while Kaitlin Richards chipped in seven
points and Alexandria Williams scored six.
Richards drilled a pair of three-pointers, while
Barker and Abby Lefatch ﬁnished with one apiece.
Erin Evans, on three ﬁeld goals including two
treys, amounted eight points to lead the Lady
Rebels.
Amaya Howell had the team’s other trifecta.
Olivia Hornsby had a ﬁeld goal and two freebies
for four points, as Aaliyah Howell and Kylie Stapleton scored a ﬁeld goal and free throw apiece.
Christine Grifﬁth rounded out the Lady Rebels’
scoring with a ﬁeld goal.
South Gallia returns home, and returns to
TVC-Hocking Division action, on Thursday night
against Waterford.

Oklahoma has seven
ﬁrst-team selections on
The Associated Press
All-Big 12 team after winning its 10th league title.
Big-play receiver Dede
Westbrook, who has
1,465 yards receiving
with 16 touchdowns that
average 49 yards per
score, was selected the
Big 12 offensive player
of the year with nine
votes. That was two more
than repeat AP ﬁrst-team
quarterback Baker Mayﬁeld, his junior teammate
who was the league’s
top offensive player last
season. Westbrook and
Mayﬁeld are both Heisman Trophy ﬁnalists, and
will be in New York for
the ceremony Saturday
night.
D’Onta Foreman , who
ran for 2,028 yards this
season and will leave
Texas after a schoolrecord 13 consecutive
100-yard games, got the
remaining four votes for
top offensive player when
the AP All-Big 12 team
was released Tuesday.
Kansas State had four
ﬁrst-team picks, including
a league-high three on
defense . That trio included defensive end Jordan
Willis, the AP defensive
player of the year by one
vote over cornerback
Rasul Douglas from West
Virginia. Willis and Douglas were the only unanimous defensive picks.
Oklahoma’s Bob Stoops
was named AP Big 12
coach of the year for a
record ﬁfth time. He is
only the second coach
to win the award in consecutive seasons. Stoops
got 15 votes, and West
Virginia’s Dana Holgorsen got the other ﬁve from
a panel of 20 journalists
who regularly cover the
Big 12 throughout the
league’s ﬁve states.

Cavs snap 3-game skid against Raptors
TORONTO (AP) — The Cleveland Cavaliers lost J.R. Smith to a left
knee injury early in the game, though
LeBron James wouldn’t allow his
team to let up on the Toronto Raptors one bit.
James scored a season-high 34
points as the Cavaliers broke a threegame losing streak with a 116-112
victory on Monday night.
It was their third straight victory
this season over the Raptors, the
team they beat on their way to the
championship in last year’s Eastern
Conference ﬁnals.
“Next man up,” he said. “It’s
always been our mindset; obviously
we hope the MRI’s come back positive with J.R.’s injury, so it’s next man
up and guys have to be able to fulﬁll
that.”
Smith injured his left knee in the
ﬁrst quarter after landing on a jump
shot and hobbled to the dressing
room in considerable pain. He did
not return, and the Cavaliers said
X-rays taken at the arena were negative and that the guard would return

to Cleveland on Tuesday for further
examination.
Coach Tyronn Lue said he was
“not sure on what it is,” with regards
to the precise nature of Smith’s knee
injury.
Kevin Love had 28 points and 14
rebounds for his team-leading 13th
double-double of the season and his
third straight against the Raptors.
Kyrie Irving added 24 points, his
career-high 10th straight game with
at least 20. Canadian Tristan Thompson chipped in with a season highequaling 14 rebounds.
DeMar DeRozan had 31 points and
Kyle Lowry added 24 for Toronto,
which had its six-game winning
streak snapped.
For Irving, winning the season
series, and gaining the tiebreaker,
over Toronto is something to celebrate, particularly when it also ended
the Cavs’ skid.
“We know we are going to get their
best shot all the time,” he said. “We
compete at a high level against one
another, so it’s great to come here or

them come to Cleveland. It always
comes down to basically the last two
or three minutes.”
Monday’s game was no different.
Cleveland seized control of the game
in the third quarter with a 23-11 run,
turning a one-point halftime edge
into a 13-point lead on Love’s sixth
3-pointer of the game with 3:35 to
play in the quarter. The Cavs eventually took a 90-81 advantage into the
fourth.
A turnaround jump shot from
DeRozan with 24 seconds remaining closed the gap to ﬁve, and he
followed that up with a 3-pointer 10
seconds later that looked to put the
result in doubt, but after review he
was ruled out of bounds. Love then
made a pair of free throws.
“They know how to win,” DeRozan
said. “Throughout the whole game
they understand when they have
to turn it up on both ends, so with
that you can’t put yourself in a hole
deeper than what you are already
in, especially against this team. You
know they are the champions.”

Winless Browns go back to work
BEREA, Ohio (AP) —
Robert Grifﬁn III healed
much faster than doctors
thought.
Now, if he can just
mend the 0-12 Browns.
Told earlier this season that it was “highly
unlikely” he would be
able to play again in 2016
after breaking a bone
in his left shoulder late
in the Sept. 11 opener
at Philadelphia, Grifﬁn
practiced Monday as the
winless Browns returned
from their bye and he

could start Sunday when
they host the Cincinnati
Bengals.
“It’s all falling the right
way for me,” RG3 said.
But while Grifﬁn
believes he’s ready
to return to the ﬁeld,
Browns coach Hue Jackson, who has been forced
to shufﬂe quarterbacks in
and out of his lineup all
season because of injuries, isn’t quite set to put
him back behind center.
“It is too soon,” said
Jackson, who has Grifﬁn,

Josh McCown and rookie
Cody Kessler all at his
disposal for the ﬁrst time
since Week 1. “I will let
you know that. We were
out there for an hour so
we were just knocking off
the rust from being gone.
We have to get game
preparations this week,
and I will know more
then.”
Grifﬁn is staying
patient. But after being
unable to help his teammates during the worst
stretch in franchise his-

tory, it’s understandable
that he’s eager to learn
his fate.
“Coach could wait until
Sunday,” Grifﬁn said.
“That’s why he’s got the
HC on his hat and we all
trust him in this locker
room. I trust him, and it’s
just a matter of do they
feel I’m ready to play or
do they feel like I need
to take some more time.
So whatever their decision is, I’ll be OK with it
because I’m here to be a
Cleveland Brown.
