See CRASH | 5A Suspect in burglaries taken into custody By Beth Sergent bsergent@civitasmedia.com POINT PLEASANT — One of two suspects wanted in the burglary of a home just outside Point Pleasant has been taken into custody. Zachary M. Cline, 29, of Gallipolis Ferry, was taken into custody Friday afternoon after the Mason County Sheriff’s Department obtained a felony warrant for his arrest earlier this week. The warrant is for daytime burglary. Leading up to Cline’s arrest were photos of two men caught on home video surveillance allegedly burglarizing the home of Deron and Missy Deem on April 30. The photos began circulating around the Internet and social media this week and resulted in tips leading to the Cline alleged identification of Cline and his eventual arrest. The other man in the screen shot remains at large. Though Cline is a resident of Gallipolis Ferry, the Mason County Sheriff’s Department reports he also has “strong ties” to the Gallia County area in Ohio. As previously reported, the Deem’s home was burglarized three times in one month — on April, 2, 23 and 30. Surveillance video caught images of two men burglarizing the home on April 30. During the three break-ins, burglars took jewelry and home electronics, even going as far as to use bolt cutters to take the family’s large, flat-panel television from the wall. In 2013, in a separate and unrelated case, Cline was arrested by the sheriff’s department, along with two others, for thefts occurring in the Redmond Ridge area of Gallipolis Ferry. At that time, Cline was charged with breaking and entering, grand larceny, and receiving and transferring stolen goods. According to the official criminal complaints filed in Mason County Magistrate Court in 2013, the trio was initially charged with breaking and Courtesy photos The U.S.S.

A sincere “thank you” to all our friends and neighbors who came to our 65th wedding anniversary party and for all the beautiful cards (which we have read; several times) and the gifts we received. It was truly a wonderful day and we feel so blessed for the friendships you have shared with us. When I was just a little girl, They pointed me in the right direction; They caressed me when I needed her, And provided me with affection. The tobacco spud that pierced her hand, The blisters caused by the hoe; The pain was hard to endure at times, But she never let it show. 60462834 www.mydailysentinel.com or www.mydailytribune.com To our family, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, you did a great job!

But, many people with Indian ancestry aren’t registered. Connie Saul Foster, who also is known as Gentle Dove, is from Oak Hill. She said she is proud of her heritage now, but that, at one time, it was dangerous to admit you were descended from American Indians. Her ancestors escaped from the Trail of Tears, a forced march of Eastern tribes westward to reservations in the early 1800s, she said. “They ran up into the hills and hid in the Appalachian Mountains, living in fear for generations,” she said. “We were taught not to talk to other people about being Indians and listed ourselves as ‘white’ on census documents. Now, we are proud of it and we are representing our families who couldn’t tell others they were Indians.” Pratter said Indian gatherings like this were illegal after the Wounded Knee Massacre of 1890, but they began springing up after the end of World War II in 1945 as a way to celebrate the military service of American Indians. “We really need to have people of Native American descent get together so the heritage doesn’t die off with this generation,” Van Person said. Cornstalk’s defeat will be commemorated this year on the first weekend in October at Tu-EndieWei State Park, 1 Main St., Point Pleasant. “Battle Days commemorates a great loss,” Robinson said. “It’s not a good day for any of us; it’s not a good day for him, from a spiritual level. I do the event in an attempt to bring them some joy on a sad day.” Battle Days is a learning experience for local school children who will File photo A scene from the first Shawnee Spring Gathering in 2013. join in dancing and drumming as they hear the story of Cornstalk and the Battle of Point Pleas- ant.

A woman stood as she crafted a feathered headdress. Men gathered around a table-sized drum. They sprinkled it with dried tobacco — the kind that grows wild along streams — as a way to show honor. It was a prayer of thanksgiving to the Creator God. Then the music began — the slow, steady beating of the drum echoed as the voices of the elders blended with the smoke and arose. The third annual Shawnee Spring Gathering, which occurred on May 2, featured about 200 people, donning colorful and symbolic regalia, joined in worship, drumming, dancing and storytelling on the “sacred ground” of their ancestors. Vast areas of the land where Point Pleasant now stands were once home to the Shawnee, according to Lyn Robinson, a granddaughter of Chief Cornstalk, famed for leading his people in the Battle of Point Pleasant, a resistance against encroachment on traditional Shawnee territory in 1774. “I am his seventh granddaughter, through his son Elinipsisco,” Robinson said, “and, also a granddaughter of Puckeshinwa, who was the war chief of the Shawnee Nation. The largest Shawnee village site in West Virginia was in Mason County.” She said the gathering is a way to “bring respect to the land and to the spirits of our ancestors.” Richard Jordan, a Cherokee who lives in nearby Leon, took the opportunity to do just that when he knelt by the bowl and waved the sweet smoke over his head, rubbing it from front to back. “The smoke represents a cleansing before God,” Jordan said. “The drum represents the voice of the Great Spirit,” said Charles Van Person, a Lakota Sioux from Ohio. “It connects Mother Earth with the sky. It’s a form of prayer.” Recognized as a “prayerful people” by the first Europeans, Randy Pratter, another Cherokee from Ohio, said the Spanish first called American Indians ‘En Dios,’ meaning God’s people. “We didn’t get our name from Columbus, who thought he’d made the voyage to India,” he said. “They called us En Dios, and that’s where the word Indian really comes from.” No matter if they are referred to as Native Americans, American Indians or by their tribal affiliations, the proud people who met, assisted and sometimes fought the Europeans in a clash of cultures are now, 240 years after the Battle of Point Pleasant — which ended in their defeat and Cornstalk’s retreat back across the Ohio — celebrating their culture and working to pass it along to another generation. Robinson said it’s important to understand the difference between a powwow and a gathering. “Powwows are not traditional for the Eastern Woodland nations, they are a gift to us from the Western tribes,” she said. “In order for us to say it’s 60582851 Associated Press 60580201 By Marta Tankersley Hays �E ditorial 4A Sunday, May 10, 2015 Sunday Times-Sentinel OUR VIEW Foul balls don’t always play fair “Hon, look out!” That’s all I remember shouting as my wife and a few other folks ducked for cover at Appalachian Power Park _d�Zemdjemd�9^Whb[ijed$ Earlier in the day, while en route to the baseball stadium to watch the West Virginia Power play the LexMichael ington Legends, I had instructed my Johnson daughters Hanna, 17, and Abby, 10, Rough Writer and my wife to always pay attention while at the game. Since none of my girls had ever attended a professional baseball game, and I being a lifelong baseball fan, it was my duty to warn them against the dangers of errant foul balls. “OK, Dad,” my daughters said to me in unison, with a bit of indifference in their voices. “I’m dead serious,” I said. “There was a woman at a Pittsburgh Pirates game who was struck on the head with a foul ball. She was in the stands, seemingly protected by a net behind home plate, when it hit her. The game was delayed for about 20-25 minutes.” The incident to which I was referring had occurred six days prior — on my birthday, April 20 Å�Zkh_d]�j^[�i[YedZ�_dd_d]�e\�W�9kXi#F_hWj[i�]Wc[� Wj�FD9�FWha$ “Is she OK?” Abby asked as we prepared to watch j^[�F_hWj[iÉ�9bWii�7�Iekj^�7jbWdj_Y�B[W]k[�W\Òb_Wj[$ Thankfully, the fan was OK, but it perfectly illustrated my point that the girls should always be aware of their surroundings. I wasn’t too worried, though. In my many years of playing and following baseball, I never once felt threatened by a sharp line drive into j^[�YhemZ$�9Whho_d]�W�XWi[XWbb�]bel[�je�W�]Wc["�\eh� me, was extra baggage I didn’t need. But on this day, I never anticipated that a foul ball would not play fair with me. We settled at a picnic table on the concourse along the first-base side of the stadium. Our “seats” were a few steps from the concession area and, more importantly, the Dippin’ Dots cart and the restrooms. During the first four innings, a few foul balls landed in varying spots around our table. One fan tried to catch a foul ball with his cap and badly missed, while another — to my disgust — nearly tackled a child while trying to fetch one. A third and fourth ball landed in the seats just below us, to which Hanna, armed with her softball glove, said, “If we were sitting there, I probably would have caught that.” My wife and I decided between innings to take a stroll to the Power Outlet, the baseball team’s gift shop. I had already purchased a baseball cap, partly to protect my balding scalp from the sun’s rays, but mostly to fulfill a desire to add to my growing baseball cap collection. It’s one of the best purchases I’ve ever made, and you’ll soon learn why. We spent about 10 minutes inside the store, pondering what to buy the girls, who were still at their seats. We perused the usual souvenir items and eventually settled on a couple of T-shirts before heading back to our seats. On the return trip to the table, I heard the distinct sound of a bat meeting a baseball — of a foul nature. The subsequent skyward head jerk of several fans confirmed it. My instincts told me to look skyward, too. As I did so, a slight feeling of panic struck me. I knew there was a baseball up there hurtling back to Earth, but I couldn’t see it against backdrop of an overcast sky. Envisioning the scene from “Simon Birch,” a 1998 film in which a character played by Ashley Judd is struck on the head and killed by a foul ball, I shouted the warning for my wife to “look out.” I turned my attention skyward again. This time, I picked up sight of the ball, which was rather large at this point and headed slightly behind and to my right. Having no baseball glove on hand, I used the next-best thing — my recently purchased baseball cap. I pulled it off my head and, with an outstretched arm, watched it settle into my cap. What was seemingly complete silence in those few seconds as the ball descended from the heavens quickly turned into a loud ovation from the stadium’s population. I heard the public address announcer say something about the catch, but I honestly wasn’t listening. A couple of nearby fans gave me a high-five, while many more said, “Nice catch!” The look on my daughters’ faces was priceless. “Wow, Dad! That was so awesome!” Hanna repeatedly exclaimed.

She then spread the word via Facebook that I had “saved” her. “And that,” I said as if it was all part of a grand plan, “is why you always pay attention when you’re at a baseball game.” “Yeah, Dad. You clearly looked like you were paying a lot of attention,” Hanna said. Was it that obvious? Michael Johnson is editor of Ohio Valley Newspapers.

WORLD WAR II 70th anniversary: End of the European Theater War begins The surrender of Germany 70 years ago marked the end of the European Theater of World War II. It lasted from Sept. 1, 1939, to May 8, 1945. The war in the Pacific would still continue another three months. D-Day Jews perish in the death camps established in occupied Poland. Sept. 1, 1939: Nazi Germany’s invasion of Poland wakes up a stunned world to Adolf Hitler’s open aggression. Two days later, France and Britain declare war. Sept. 17, 1939: Poland falls quickly as it is under attack by Germany on the west and the Soviet Union on the east. 1939-1940: The first four months of World War II sees German submarines (U boats) sink more than 100 vessels as the Nazis try to cut off supply routes to Europe. It is the start of the “Battle of the Atlantic,” which sees German U-boats patrolling off the U.S. east coast. June 6, 1944: Allied forces begin a massive invasion of Europe, landing 156,000 British, Canadian and American soldiers on the beaches of Normandy, France. By the end of the day, over 75,000 British and Canadian troops and more than 57,000 Americans hold the beaches; within a month, those numbers swell to over a million. In response, Hitler pours the remaining strength of his army into Western Europe, ensuring Germany’s defeat in the east. June 22, 1941: Germany and its allies launch Operation Barbarossa, a massive invasion of the Soviet Union from the Baltic shore in the north to the Black Sea in the South. Initially, the Axis invasion of the USSR is a dramatic success. The impact of the surprise invasion helps Germany get within 200 miles of Moscow by mid-July. U.S. enters war As the Allies liberate France, they face a logistics nightmare in keeping their mechanized and motorized divisions supplied with fuel, food, ammunition and other necessities. The 6,000 trucks, known as the Red Ball Express, transport more than 800,000 gallons of fuel a day and a total of over 412,000 tons of other war supplies during an 81-day period. Dec. 7, 1941: With Britain facing Germany in Europe, the United States is the only nation capable of combating Japanese aggression in the Far East. On Dec. 7, 1941, around 360 Japanese Fall of Europe aircraft attack Pearl Harbor, taking America April 9 to June 22, 1940: It takes just one month completely by surprise and claiming the lives of more than 2,300 troops. for the Nazi war machine to overrun Denmark, Norway, Luxembourg, Belgium and the Netherlands in what becomes known as the “blitzkrieg.” Dec. 11, 1941:The U.S. Congress declares war on Germany with only one non-supporting vote.

France surrenders on June 22, 1940, on board the very same railroad car -- placed in the in Congress and a dedicated lifelong pacifist, voted present. She also was the only member very same spot -- where Germany had surrendered to France at the end of World War I. It’s a of Congress to vote against America’s moment of sweet revenge for Hitler. Meanwhile, declaration of war against Japan on Dec. 8. Benito Mussolini of Italy joins forces with Hitler. Battle of the Bulge December 1944-January 1945: German troops are secretly amassing a quarter-million men, 1,000 tanks and mechanized assault guns, and 1,900 artillery pieces for a major counteroffensive that is meant to drive a wedge between the American and British sectors and re-capture the port of Antwerp in Belgium. The Battle of the Bulge is the last major German offensive of the war as the Nazis fail to drive the Americans and British back from Germany. The British Expeditionary Force is evacuated by sea from Dunkirk, using 700 vessels ranging from Royal Navy destroyers to fishing boats. DWIGHT EISENHOWER June 25, 1942: Major General Dwight D. Eisenhower takes command of U.S. forces in Europe. Although Eisenhower has never seen combat during his 27 years as an Army officer, his knowledge of military strategy and talent for organization are such that he is chosen over nearly 400 senior officers. WINSTON CHURCHILL Battle of Britain Summer of 1940: A few days after France signs an armistice with Germany, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill tells Parliament, “The Battle of France is over. I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin.” The Allies bomb Berlin with 12,000 airmen dropping thousands of tons of explosives. July 17, 1942: The Soviets and Germans fight a vicious, building-by-building, street-by-street battle from July 17, 1942, to Feb. 2, 1943. The harsh winter weather and the Soviet counteroffensive force a German retreat. February 1945: An intensive aerial bombardment precedes the Allied land invasion of Germany. April 28, 1945: Mussolini and his mistress are killed by Italian partisans. Their bodies, and those of other fascists killed at the same time, are hung upside down in Milan, where Italian fascists had executed 15 partisans a year earlier. German planes bomb Britain extensively throughout the summer, including night raids on London and other industrial centers. An all-out air war over England begins July 10. The German Luftwaffe’s goal is to knock out the Royal Air Force so Germany can launch a naval invasion of Britain. However, the outmanned Royal Air Force prevails, leading Hitler to abandon his plans. April 30, 1945: Hitler commits suicide, along with his mistress Eva Braun, whom he had married just hours before. May 8, 1945: Both Great Britain and the United States celebrate Victory in Europe. Cities in both nations, as well as formerly occupied cities in Western Europe, put out flags and banners, rejoicing in the defeat of Nazi Germany, but the war in the Pacific is still unfinished. Hitler’s real objective April 1941: Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria join the Axis, and German troops overrun Yugoslavia and Greece before the month ends. Hitler’s conquest of the Balkans is a precursor for his real objective: an invasion of the Soviet Union and the extermination of the Jews in Europe.

The RedStorm are one of 14 schools making their first appearance in the national tournament since the current format was adopted in 2013. Rio Grande is actually mak- ing its second trip to the national tourney, though, after making the field in 2004 as the champion of the now-defunct America Mideast Conference. That season, the thenRedwomen lost their opening game against Brescia (Ky.) in Decatur, Ala. before posting consecutive wins over No. 10 North Georgia, St. Xavier (Ill.) and No. 11 St. Scholastica (Minn.). However, Rio saw its season end with a school-record 40 wins in its fifth game of the tournament - a 3-2 loss in nine innings to No. 6-ranked Columbia (Mo.). Of the 40 schools comprising this year’s tournament field, three of last four national champions — Auburn-Montgomery (2014), Concordia, Calif. (2013) and Oregon Tech (2011) — will be competing. The 10 regional tournament winners will advance to the 35th Annual NAIA World Series, which is slated for May 22-28, at Morningside College in Sioux City, Iowa.

Although day in May appointed for the she was unsuccessful in making honoring of mothers. the idea of Mother’s Day an But what is Mother’s Day? official holiday, her idea spread.

Why do we celebrate MothShe was inspired with the er’s Day? idea of celebrating Mother’s Julia Ward Howe was the Day from her own mother, first to suggest the idea of an Ann Marie Reeves Jarvis, an official celebration of Mother’s activist and social worker.

She War song, “Battle Hymn of the felt there should be a way to lhart@civitasmedia.com acknowledge their contributions. Anna Jarvis never forgot her mother’s words. She provided carnations to honor her mother at a church service in Grafton after her death in 1905. Carnations were her mother’s favorite flower and Anna felt they symbolized a mother’s pure love. A letter writing campaign by Jarvis and her supporters, calling for the official declaration of Mother’s Day holiday, began soon thereafter. Through their efforts, Mother’s Day is now celebrated in almost every state in the U.S. A joint resolution by Congress, signed on May 8, 1914 by President Woodrow Wilson, designated the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day. By the early 1920s, companies began selling Mother’s Day cards. Stores advertised flowers and candy for Mother’s Day giving. It had not been Anna Jarvis’ intention to commercialize the day, rather a time to honor and appreciate mothers in a personal way. According to Jarvis and her supporters, love and gratitude should be expressed by a handwritten letter or a simple flower. She became embittered by what she saw as misinterpretation and exploitation of the intention of the holiday. Despite her efforts, not all of them peaceful, to have the resolution rescinded, Mother’s Day has remained and is now celebrated worldwide. So let us revisit the idea of Mother’s Day as a time to truly reflect on what our mothers, grandmothers and all the women in our lives mean to us. This holiday was not intended to be a time for husbands and sons to anguish over whether or not their gift is adequate. Not to say that women do not like gifts, but sometimes, among all the activities and theater the day often brings, sometimes the best gift is, as Jarvis imagined, personal. Hugs and kisses from children and grandchildren, husbands acknowledging the contribution of their wives and mothers, a friend telling a friend how special she is … these are things that make Mother’s Day the holiday it was intended to be. So for all of you celebrating Mother’s Day with the woman in your life, remember to do all those things, either before or after you give her your gift!

However, over the past year the church has moved back toward its Baptist heritage. Last summer, Pastor Eric Fannin (pictured, center) preached through the Epistle of First Timothy, a book which includes the qualifications for both overseers (or pastors) and deacons. The church leadership moved to reinstate the diaconate at Good News. Nominations were made by the church body based on the qualifications presented in First Timothy, Chapter Three. Then, a careful review process began in order to ascertain whether the nominees were qualified, willing and able to serve as deacons of the church. In their December business meeting, Good News unanimously voted to accept Fred Crouse Jr. (left) and Kevin Young (right) as deacons. On Jan. 25, the church ordained both men. After the ordination, Deacons Crouse and Young assisted Pastor Fannin in serving the Lord’s Supper to the congregation. Johnson wins national scholarship CROWN CITY — Alexis H.
