it to be a celebration for Paul’s
life.”
Pitcarin has performed with
the Ohio Valley Symphony several times with the invitation of
Simón.
“It actually started with the
art gallery in Point Pleasant,”
Snow said, explaining his
involvement with the gallery
put him in contact with the Pitcarin family.
“…And we were talking about
concerts and stuff and he said,
‘you know they have a concert
violinist in the family, let me
ask them.’ And so, that started
it,” Snow added, saying Simón
and Pitcarin became great
friends over time.
“When she heard of Paul’s
passing, she wanted to come
back and play for his memorial
concert,” Snow said.
Pitcarin made her debut
orchestra performance at the
age of 14, the violinist has
several performances under
her belt. One that she is most
known for is her performances
with the “Red Mendelssohn”
Stradivarius violin of 1720.
“That’s a whole amazing
story right there,” Snow said.
“She likes to say she partners
with the legendary Red Violin.”

OHIO VALLEY — The Ohio
Valley Symphony will open the
season Oct. 2 with “Mostly
Mendelssohn” with opening
night at the Wedge Auditorium,
in Point Pleasant, W.Va.
“This [is] a happy, upbeat,
uplifting selection of music,”
said Lora Snow, founder and
executive director of the Ariel
Theatre.
This year’s opening show will
also be a tribute to Paul Simón,
former president of the Ariel
Theatre Board of Directors,
who passed away earlier this
year.
The show will be conducted
by Scott Woodward, music
director of the Butler Philharmonic Orchestra, with special
violinist, Elizabeth Pitcarin,
American violinist.
Woodward will be directing
the “energizing and uplifting
‘Symphony No.4’” and during
the performance Pitcarin will
perform ‘Concerto for Violin,
Op. 64,’” according to the Ariel
Theatre’s website.
“She [Pitcarin] offered up
some solo selections and I
selected the symphony, ‘Mendelssohn’s’s Symphony No. 4.’ It
[has] a really joyous and lively

website, Stradivari is still “the
most famous violin maker of
all time.” However, sometime
after the creation of the “Red

sion of “The Pledge of
Allegiance,” written by
Francis Bellamy, appeared
in “The Youth’s Companion.” It went: “I pledge
allegiance to my Flag and
the Republic for which it
stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and
justice for all.”
In 1900, Galveston,
Texas, was struck by a
hurricane that killed an
estimated 8,000 people.
In 1935, Sen. Huey P.
Long, a Louisiana Democrat, was shot and mortally wounded inside the
Louisiana State Capitol;
he died two days later.
(The assailant was identiﬁed as Dr. Carl Weiss,
who was gunned down by
Long’s bodyguards.)
In 1939, President
Franklin D. Roosevelt
declared a “limited
national emergency” in
response to the outbreak
of war in Europe.
In 1941, the 900-day
Siege of Leningrad by
German forces began during World War II.

In 1943, during World
War II, Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower announced
Italy’s surrender; Nazi
Germany denounced
Italy’s decision as a cowardly act.
In 1964, public schools
in Prince Edward County,
Virginia, reopened after
being closed for ﬁve years
by ofﬁcials attempting
to prevent court-ordered
racial desegregation.
In 1974, President
Gerald R. Ford granted
a “full, free, and absolute pardon” to former
President Richard Nixon
covering his entire term
in ofﬁce.
In 2019, Rafael Nadal
held off a strong comeback bid to win his 19th
Grand Slam title in a
ﬁve-set U.S. Open ﬁnal
against Daniil Medvedev.
Ten years ago: Addressing a joint session of
Congress, President
Barack Obama challenged
a reluctant Congress to
urgently pass a largerthan-expected $450 bil-

lion jobs plan to “jolt
an economy that has
stalled.” Ten oil workers
were forced to abandon a
crippled 94-foot research
vessel in the Gulf of Mexico and pile into a life raft
during Tropical Storm
Nate; by the time rescuers
arrived three days after,
three of the men had
died, and a fourth died
later at a hospital.
Five years ago: California and federal regulators
ﬁned Wells Fargo a combined $185 million, alleging the bank’s employees
illegally opened millions
of unauthorized accounts
for their customers in
order to meet aggressive
sales goals. U.S. aviation safety ofﬁcials took
the extraordinary step
of warning airline passengers not to turn on
or charge a new-model

the Galaxy Note 7, during
ﬂights following numerous reports of the devices

as the woman in an iconic

ecstatic sailor in Times
Square celebrating the

in Richmond, Virginia, at
age 92.
One year ago: The
Northern California foothill hamlet of Berry Creek
was largely destroyed
in what would be the
deadliest of the wildﬁres
burning through much of
the state; it left 16 people
dead. More than a dozen
California ﬁreﬁghters trying to protect a ﬁre station in rugged mountains
were overrun by ﬂames;
several were hurt as they

nation ran into computer
glitches as they began the

Herd sinks Navy in opener, 49-7
By Colton Jeffries
cjeffries@aimmediamidwest.com

ANNAPOLIS, Md. — If the
Charles Huff era is seeking to
right the ship, then Marshall is
off to a great start.
Thundering Herd football
opened its 2021 campagin with
a 49-7 road win against the
Navy Midshipmen Saturday
afternoon.
The ﬁrst Marshall touchdown of the season came just
a couple minutes into the ballgame, when freshman running
back Rasheen Ali scored his
ﬁrst of four touchdowns on the
day.

Starting quarterback Grant
Wells also had a good start
on his ﬁrst drive, hitting
sophomore wide receiver Talik
Keaton with a 47-yard pass on
the ﬁrst play of the game.
The Herd’s air attack was
their bread and butter in Saturday’s ballgame, accounting for
363 of their 464 total yards.
However, the run game (101
yards) was what got points on
the board, netting six of the
seven Marshall touchdowns.
The Herd defense was also
stout Saturday, stopping the
Midshipmen on all six of their
offensive drives in the ﬁrst half,
including a blocked ﬁeld goal,

a turnover on downs and four
sacks.
The home team’s best shot
at a touchdown in the ﬁrst half
came on the ﬁnal drive of the
second quarter, getting all the
way to the Herd’s six-yard line.
However, the defense held
off the attack, leading to a 21-0
split at halftime.
The host’s dry spell ended
at the beginning of the fourth
quarter with a short run for a
touchdown, but by then it was
too late to stage a comeback.
The Green and White scored
three unanswered touchdowns
from then on to seal the victory.

Wells led the Herd in passing, notching 330 yards on 20
completions. He also had two
interceptions.
Backup QB Luke Zban came
in towards the end of the game,
only having 1 completion for
30 yards, but that completion
happened to be the Herd’s only
passing touchdown of the day.
Keaton was the Herd’s favorite receiving target in Saturday’s game, with 100 yards on
ﬁve catches, followed by Corey
Gammage (7-94) and Xavier
Gaines (2-61).
On the ground, Ali led the
way for his team, getting 59
yards and four touchdowns.

Defensively, the Herd was
led by Abrah Beauplan, who
recorded 13 tackles.
He was followed by EJ Jackson (12 tackles) and Eli Neal
(11 tackles, three tackles for
loss and three sacks).
The Thundering Herd’s
42-point victory is the largest
in a season opener against a
fellow Football Bowl Subdivision team since a 38-point win
against Miami (Ohio) at the
beginning of the 2013 season.

Black
Knights blast
Poca, 5-1
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — It took
four games for the Black Knights to
trail an opponent, but nobody has yet to
get the best of them.
The Point Pleasant boys soccer team
scored ﬁve unanswered goals and
received a hat trick from Tyson Richards on Saturday during a 5-1 victory
over visiting Poca in a non-conference
matchup at Ohio Valley Bank Track and
Field.
The Black Knights (4-0) found themselves in a 1-0 hole just six minutes into
regulation, but the hosts responded in
the 17th minute as Richards received
a through ball from Colton Young and
dribbled in for an easy goal — tying the
game at one at the break.
Nick Cichon-Ledderhose received a
Cael McCutcheon throw-in and beat his
defender inside the box area for a quick
shot and goal in the 44th minute for a
permanent lead of 2-1.
Richards added his second and third
goals in the 55th and 73rd minutes,
with respective assists going to Young
and Kanaan Abbas. Young completed
the scoring in the 80th minute after
netting a pass from McCutcheon from
around 12 yards away.
PPHS outshot the Dots (1-2-1) by a
sizable 36-4 overall margin and took
four of the ﬁve corner kicks in the contest.
Brecken Loudin made both saves he
faced in net for Point during the second
half. Sean Wilson did not make a save
in the ﬁrst half for the hosts.

Boosters coming, but who will get them and when?
By Lauran Neergaard
AP Medical Writer

COVID-19 booster
shots may be coming for
at least some Americans
but already the Biden
administration is being
forced to scale back
expectations — illustrating just how much important science still has to be
worked out.
The initial plan was to
offer Pﬁzer or Moderna
boosters starting Sept.
20, contingent on authorization from U.S. regulators. But now administration ofﬁcials acknowledge
Moderna boosters probably won’t be ready by
then — the Food and
Drug Administration
needs more evidence to
judge them. Adding to
the complexity, Moderna
wants its booster to be
half the dose of the original shots.
As for Pﬁzer’s booster,
who really needs another dose right away isn’t
a simple decision either.
What’s ultimately recommended for an 80-yearold vaccinated back in
December may be different than for a 35-yearold immunized in the
spring — who likely
would get a stronger
immunity boost by waiting longer for another
shot.
FDA’s scientiﬁc advisers will publicly debate
Pﬁzer’s evidence on Sept.
17, just three days before

the administration’s target. If the FDA approves
another dose, then advisers to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will recommend who
should get one.
That’s tricky because
while real-world data
shows the vaccines
used in the U.S. remain
strongly protective
against severe disease
and death, their ability to
prevent milder infection
is dropping. It’s not clear
how much of that is due
to immunity waning or
the extra-contagious delta
variant — or the fact that
delta struck just as much
of the country dropped
masks and other precautions.
When to jump to
boosters “becomes a
judgment,” said Dr. Jesse
Goodman of Georgetown
University, a former FDA
vaccine chief. “And is
that urgent or do we have
time for the data to come
in?”
Already the CDC is
considering recommending the ﬁrst boosters
just for nursing home
residents and older adults
who’d be at highest risk
of severe disease if their
immunity wanes — and
to front-line health workers who can’t come to
work if they get even a
mild infection.
Some other countries
already have begun offering boosters amid an ethical debate about whether

rich countries should get
a third dose before most
people in poor countries
get their ﬁrst round.
Here’s what we know
about the biology behind
booster decisions:

Va. is set to remove Richmond’s
Lee statue on Wednesday
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A towering statue of Confederate Gen.
Robert E. Lee in Richmond, Virginia, is expected to be taken down
on Wednesday as a symbol of racial
injustice, more than 130 years after
it was erected in tribute to the
South’s Civil War leader.
While many other Confederate
symbols across the South have been
removed without public announcements beforehand to avoid unruly
crowds, Gov. Ralph Northam’s
ofﬁce is expecting a multitude and
plans to livestream the event on
social media.
Northam announced plans to
take down the statue in June 2020,
10 days after George Floyd died
under the knee of a Minneapolis
police ofﬁcer, sparking nationwide
protests against police brutality
and racism. The plans were stalled
for more than a year by two lawsuits ﬁled by residents opposed to
its removal, but rulings last week
by the Supreme Court of Virginia
cleared the way for the statue to be
taken down.
Patrick McSweeney, an attorney
for plaintiffs in one of the lawsuits,
said Monday that he plans to notify
the high court that he will ask for
a rehearing, but such requests are
rarely granted. From 2016 through
2020, the court granted rehearings
in just two of the 86 requests it
received, said L. Steven Emmert,
an appellate attorney who publishes
a website focusing on appellate rulings in Virginia.
“The chances are extremely
remote,” Emmert said.
The imposing, 21-foot (6.4meter) tall bronze likeness of
Lee on a horse sits atop a granite
pedestal nearly twice that high in
the grassy center of a trafﬁc circle
on Richmond’s famed Monument
Avenue
“Virginia’s largest monument to
the Confederate insurrection will
come down this week,” Northam
said in news release on Monday.
“This is an important step in showing who we are and what we value
as a commonwealth.”
In Monday’s news release, state
ofﬁcials said that preparations for
the statue’s removal will began
6 p.m. Tuesday when crews will
install protective fencing.
Once the statue is hoisted off the
pedestal, it’s expected to be cut into
two pieces for transport, although
the ﬁnal plan is subject to change,
said Dena Potter, a spokeswoman
for the state’s Department of General Services.

After the statue is taken down
Wednesday, crews on Thursday will
remove plaques from the base of
the monument and will replace a
time capsule that is believed to be
there.
In Richmond, a city that was the
capital of the Confederacy for much
of the Civil War, the Lee statue
became the epicenter of last summer’s protest movement. The city
has removed more than a dozen
other pieces of Confederate statuary on city land since Floyd’s death.
As one of the largest and most
recognizable Confederate statues in
the country, the removal of the Lee
statute is expected to draw large
crowds.
Limited viewing opportunities
will be available on a ﬁrst-come,
ﬁrst-serve basis, state ofﬁcials said
in Monday’s news release. The
removal will also be livestreamed
through the governor’s Facebook
and Twitter accounts, both of which
have the handle of governorVA.
The Lee statue was created
by the internationally renowned
French sculptor Marius-JeanAntonin Mercie and is considered
a “masterpiece,” according to its
nomination to the National Register of Historic Places, where it has
been listed since 2007.
When the statue arrived in 1890
from France, an estimated 10,000
Virginians used wagons to haul its
pieces more than a mile to where
it now stands. White residents celebrated the statue, but many Black
residents have long seen it as a
monument glorifying slavery.
The Northam administration
has said it would seek public input
on the statue’s future. The 40-foot
granite pedestal will be left behind
for now amid efforts to rethink
the design of Monument Avenue.
Some racial justice advocates don’t
want it removed, seeing the grafﬁticovered pedestal as a symbol of
the protest movement that erupted
after Floyd’s killing.
Lawrence West, 38, member of
BLM RVA, an activist group that’s
been occupying the transformed
space at the Lee monument, said
he believes the decision to remove
the statue was fueled by the work of
protesters.
“I mean, it hadn’t come down
before. They (Democrats in charge
of state government) had all the
opportunities in the world.”
West said he would like to see the
statue site turned into a community
space “to cultivate all types of connections between different people.”

make lots of new antibodies.
Those back-up systems
help explain why protection against severe
COVID-19 is holding
strong so far for most
people. One hint of trouble: CDC has preliminary
data that effectiveness
against hospitalization
in people 75 and older
dropped slightly in July
— to 80% — compared
to 94% or higher for
other adults.
“It’s much easier to
protect against severe
disease because all you
need is immunologic
memory. And I would
imagine for a younger
person that would last
for a while,” maybe

Idaho hospitals rationing health care
By Rebecca Boone
Associated Press

BOISE, Idaho — Idaho
public health leaders
announced Tuesday that
they activated “crisis standards of care” allowing
health care rationing for
the state’s northern hospitals because there are more
coronavirus patients than
the institutions can handle.
The Idaho Department of
Health and Welfare quietly
enacted the move Monday
and publicly announced
it in a statement Tuesday
morning — warning residents that they may not get
the care they would normally expect if they need to
be hospitalized.
The move came as the
state’s conﬁrmed coronavirus cases skyrocketed in
recent weeks. Idaho has
one of the lowest vaccination rates in the U.S.
The state health agency
cited “a severe shortage of
stafﬁng and available beds
in the northern area of the
state caused by a massive
increase in patients with
COVID-19 who require
hospitalization.”
The designation includes
10 hospitals and healthcare
systems in the Idaho panhandle and in north-central
Idaho. The agency said its
goal is to extend care to as
many patients as possible
and to save as many lives
as possible.
The move allows hospitals to allot scarce resources like intensive care unit
rooms to patients most
likely to survive.
Other patients will still
receive care, but they may
be placed in hospital classrooms or conference rooms
rather than traditional hospital rooms or go without
some life-saving medical
equipment.
Other states are preparing to take similar measures if needed. Hawaii
Gov. David Ige quietly
signed an order last week
releasing hospitals and
health care workers from
liability if they have to
ration health care.

Ann Enderle R.N. checks on a COVID-19 patient in the Medical
Intensive care unit at St. Luke’s Boise Medical Center in Boise, Idaho.
Idaho public health leaders have activated “crisis standards of care”
for the state’s northern hospitals because there are more coronavirus
patients than the institutions can handle. The Idaho Department of
Health and Welfare made the announcement Tuesday.

the decision to enact the
crisis standards about 5
p.m. Monday after the
state’s Crisis Standards of
Care Activation Advisory
Committee determined that
all other measures taken
to help relieve stafﬁng and
bed shortages had been
exhausted.
The department waited
until Tuesday morning to
make the public announcement “out of respect to
the hospitals,” department
spokeswoman Niki Forbing-Orr said in an email.
She did not elaborate or
immediately respond to
questions seeking more
details.
The unfolding crush of
patients to Idaho hospitals
has been anticipated with
dread by the state’s heath
care providers. Medical
experts have said that
Idaho could have as many
as 30,000 new coronavirus
cases a week by mid-September if the current rate
of infections lasts.
“Crisis standards of care
is a last resort. It means
we have exhausted our
resources to the point that
our healthcare systems are
unable to provide the treatment and care we expect,”
Idaho Department of
Health and Welfare Director Dave Jeppesen said in a
statement.
He added: “This is a
decision I was fervently
hoping to avoid. The best
tools we have to turn this
around is for more people
to get vaccinated and to
wear masks indoors and

in outdoor crowded public
places. Please choose to get
vaccinated as soon as possible – it is your very best
protection against being
hospitalized from COVID19.”
The designation will
remain in effect until there
are enough resources —
including stafﬁng, hospital
beds and equipment or
a drop in the number of
patients — to provide
normal levels of treatment
to all.
More than 500 people
were hospitalized statewide
with COVID-19 on Sept.
1 — the most recent data
available on the Department of Health and Welfare’s website — and more
than a third of them were
in intensive care unit beds.
Idaho’s hospitals have
struggled to ﬁll empty
nursing, housekeeping
and other health care positions, in part because some
staffers have left because
they are burned out by the
strain of the pandemic and

The parties listed below whose last known address is listed
below, the place of residence of each being unknown, will take

Plaintiff filed its Amended Complaint in the Court of Common
Pleas, of Gallia County, Ohio, alleging that Plaintiff is the holder
of certain tax certificates (listed below), purchased from the
Gallia County Treasurer in conformity with statutory authority,
and is vested with the first lien previously held by the State of
Ohio and its taxing districts for the amount of taxes, assessments, penalties, charges and interest charged against the

redemption price of each certificate is due and unpaid, and that
it has filed a Notice of Intent to Foreclose with the Gallia County
Treasurer, which the Treasurer has certified indicating the
certificate has not been redeemed. Plaintiff further alleges that
there are also due and payable taxes, assessments, penalties
and charges on the subject parcel that are not covered by the
certificate, including all costs related directly or indirectly to the
tax certificate (including attorneys fees of the holders' attorney
and fees and costs of the proceedings). Plaintiff further alleges
that it is owed the sums shown below on each tax certificate,
plus interest at a rate of 17.5% per annum on the first tax certificate, from the certificate's purchase date to the date a notice of
intent was filed, and 18% thereafter and on any other subsequently purchased tax certificate which are a first and prior lien
against the real estate described below, superior to all other
liens and encumbrances upon the subject parcel shown below.
Plaintiff prays that the defendants named below be required to
answer and set up their interest in said premises or be forever
barred from asserting the same; that all taxes, assessments,
penalties and interest due and unpaid, together with the costs
of the action, including reasonable attorney fees, on the tax certificates be found to be a good and valid first lien on said premises; that the equity of redemption of said premises be foreclosed, said premises sold as provided by law, and for such
other relief as is just and equitable.
The defendants named below are required to answer on or
before the October 6, 2021.

winning ﬁlm, “The Red Violin,” that premiered in 1998.
What is now known as the Red Violin,
resurfaced in Berlin during the 1930s. It
traded hands a few times over the years and in
November of 1990, was placed up for auction
once again. While it is said that many sought
the instrument, the winner, Pitcarin’s grandfather, would gift it to the then, 16-year-old
musician, according to her website.
At the time, the violin reportedly sold for
€902,000 (euros), which today is equivalent to
$1,934,664.87 in the United States dollar.
The website further stated she took the
gifted violin and did not share the ownership
for almost 30 years. Pitcarin practiced for the
day she would share it with the world, what
is considered to be “one of the best sounding
and most beautiful of Stradivari’s remaining
violins.”
Being the only known solo performer of
the Red Violin, Pitcarin has said her goal is to
share the beautiful sound with as many people
as she can.
It is also noted on Pitcarin’s website that
she would “come to view the violin as her life’s
most inspired mentor and friend. Many have
said that the violin has ﬁnally found its true
soulmate.”
Snow said the way Pitcarin waited until she
was ready for such an instrument and knew
what a responsibility it is to have a “gift like
that in your hands” was special.
“She waited until she had developed enough
and worked hard enough on her talent to play
the instrument,” Snow said. “Which I would
think would take an extraordinary amount of
willpower.”
While Pitcarin works with young music students in New York, Snow is encouraging them
in the Ohio Valley with open practices and
dress rehearsals.
“Saturday [Oct. 1] afternoon dress rehearsal, from one to four, is a great time to bring
young children,” Snow said. “Children can
always appreciate music, it’s just a matter of
how long they can sit still.”
Snow said this is also the perfect opportunity for people to come out and try a new type
of music or even for those who may not be
able to come to the main event, there is still a
chance to see some of the show.
“Most professional groups don’t do that, but
I very much wanted to have a different policy
for those very reasons,” Snow said.
As noted earlier in this article, the performance is set for Oct. 2 at 7:30 p.m. at the
Wedge Auditorium which is located on the
campus of Point Pleasant Junior/Senior High
School. This temporary change of venue is due
to HVAC renovations and Snow also said due
to the larger size of this auditorium, this will
also allow more room for social distancing.
Tickets are available now on the Ariel Theatre’s website.
Snow noted that all of the musicians will be
vaccinated and wearing masks when possible.
Organizers are asking that all audience members wear masks.
