Both are awaiting arraignment in the Meigs County Court of Common Pleas. Jaquan Hall, 22, of Charleston, W.Va., was previously indicted on June 17, 2021 for Aggravated Murder, an unclassified felony, Murder, an unclassified felony, Complicity, an unclassified felony, and Conspiracy, a felony of the first degree. Hall’s trial is scheduled for September 2022, WASHINGTON — The House is swiftly working to put its stamp on gun legislation in response to mass shootings in Texas and New York by 18-yearold assailants who used semi-automatic rifles to kill 31 people, including 19 children. Debate on the legislation came as the the White House announced that President Joe Biden would give a prime-time speech about the shootings and his plans to press Congress “to pass commonsense laws to combat the epidemic of gun violence that is taking lives every day.” Partisan positions were clear at a Judiciary Committee hearing Thursday on legislation that would raise the age limit for purchasing semi-automatic rifles from 18 to 21. The bill also would make it a federal offense to import, manufacture or possess large-capacity magazines and would create a grant program to buy back such magazines. It also builds on the administration’s executive action banning fast-action “bump-stock” devices and “ghost guns” that are assembled without serial numbers. The Democratic legislation, called the Protecting Our Kids Act, was quickly added to the legislative docket after last week’s school shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., promised in a letter to Democratic colleagues Thursday that the House will vote on the measure next week, and she promised other votes in the weeks ahead, including on a bill to to create an AMBER Alertstyle notification during a mass shooting. Pelosi also pledged a hearing on a bill banning military-style semiautomatic rifles. But with Republicans nearly all in opposition, the House action will mostly be symbolic, merely putting lawmakers on record about gun control ahead of this year’s elections. The Senate is taking a different course, with a bipartisan group striving toward a compromise on gun safety legislation that can win enough GOP support to become law. Those talks are making “rapid progress,” according to Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, one of the Republican negotiators. Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, defended his chamber’s proposals as popular with most Americans. He dismissed Republican criticism. “You say that it is too soon to take action?

I once heard about such from a couple of crawlers who got caught but eventually got returned to the yard from where they N TODAY the Biblical doctrine of the devil, or Satan, is nothing more than another conspiracy theory, blaming all the ills of the world on one spiritual entity. And perhaps some do think that way, making Satan just one nefarious agent more working against their perceived day-to-day self-interest. After all, the Bible does teach Satan wants to do us harm, he has worldwide influence, and that our battle is against such cosmic powers and spiritual entities. Yet, there are some important differences. Firstly, Satan is seeking to harm and devour men spiritually. He doesn’t necessarily care whether men are rich or poor, which nation is currently ascendant, which political parties are in power or what the weather is like from day to day. He desires men to turn from God and thus be lost; the nature of the sin necessary to accomplish this goal is largely immaterial. He tempts the poor man to covet, and the rich man to pride. He tempts men to anger, hate, greed, worry and lust. The world lies under his influence not because he is all-powerful, but because men follow in the footsteps of their forefather Adam, allowing themselves to succumb to his lies and temptations. The devil is just a pleased by a self-indulgent, materialistic As Peter closes are not all that out his first epistle, different from the he warns his readancient pantheons ers, “Be soberof pagan religions, minded; be watchwhose deities were ful.

In the last 12 months, eight coaching jobs have been filled by Black candidates — and for the first time, half the league’s franchises, 15 of the 30, have Black head coaches. SAN FRANCISCO — It’s an annual occurrence in the NBA. Teams change head coaches and the roster of candidates who should get those jobs starts getting bandied about, and especially in recent years those lists almost always included Black candidates. Case in point: Ime Udoka, who is of Nigerian descent. For five years, he was one of those can’t-miss candidates but never got hired. That is, until the Boston Celtics gave him the opportunity. And all Udoka did in Year 1 was reach the NBA Finals. “I don’t understand what took so long, to be honest,” Celtics guard Jaylen Brown said. Udoka’s hiring by the Eastern Conference champion Celtics, who open the NBA Finals on Thursday night against the Golden State Warriors, was part of a transformative year for the league when it comes to diversity within the coaching ranks. In the last 12 months, eight coaching jobs have been filled by Black candidates — and for the first time, half the league’s franchises, 15 of the 30, have Black head coaches. “It means a lot,” said Golden State assistant Mike Brown, one of the eight recent Black hires; he’s taking over the Sacramento Kings when this series ends. “When my son, and my oldest son’s about to have his first son, when they turn on the TV and they see people that look like them leading an NBA team on the sidelines, it can be inspiring. “For me, carrying the torch and then passing it to the next generation is something that I think about often — not just for my family, but for others out there.” Detroit’s Dwane Casey, Phoenix’s Monty Williams, Cleveland’s J.B. Bickerstaff, Philadelphia’s Doc Rivers, the Los Angeles Clippers’ Tyronn Lue, Houston’s Stephen Silas and Atlanta’s Nate McMillan are the seven Black coaches who had their current jobs last season. They’ve been See LEAD | 8 Coco Gauff, 18, to face No. 1 Swiatek in French Open final By Howard Fendrich AP Tennis Writer PARIS — In some ways, Coco Gauff is very much a typical 18-year-old, striding into Court Philippe Chatrier for her French Open semifinal on Thursday with earbuds in place, listening to a playlist she explained is “called ‘Rap’ — and I can’t say the next word.” And in some ways, she is an old soul, anything but a run-of-the-mill teen — or run-of-the-mill tennis player. So when Gauff had wrapped up her 6-3, 6-1 victory over Martina Trevisan to reach her first Grand Slam final, setting up a showdown against No. 1-ranked Iga Swiatek on Saturday, the American thought of the recent spate of mass shootings in her home country and wrote in marker on a courtside TV camera: “Peace. End gun violence.” “I woke up this morning, and I saw there was another shooting, and I think it’s just crazy. I know that it’s getting more attention now. But ... this has been an issue, at least in my head, for a long time, and I definitely think there needs to be some reform put into place,” Gauff said. “I think now especially, being 18, I’ve really been trying to educate myself around certain situations, because now I have the right to vote and I want to use that wisely.” A willingness to speak out about issues of significance, and a wide-lens view of the world, reflect the sort of maturity that has served her well, especially with so much attention from such a young age. She won the French Open junior title at 14. She became the youngest qualifier in Wimbledon history and then beat Venus Williams on the way to the fourth round there at 15. “From what I see on court, she’s developing every year, basically,” said Swiatek, the champion at Roland Garros in 2020 and on a 34-match winning streak after eliminating No. 20 Daria Kasatkina 6-2, 6-1 on Thursday. “And when I see her, I tend to forget that she’s 18.” Ah, but she is. When Gauff arrived in Paris a little more than two weeks ago, she celebrated her recent high school graduation by posing for cap-and-gown photos near the Eiffel Tower while holding her diploma. Now she’s the youngest player to reach a major title match since Maria Sharapova won Wimbledon at 17 in 2004. Gauff has won all 12 sets she’s played, although she did not need to navigate the most arduous path to get this. Because of all manner of surprising results and early exits by top players from the bracket, she has faced only one seeded foe, No. 31 See FINAL | 8 OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Friday, June 3 WVSSAC Baseball (1) Williamstown vs. (4) Charleston Catholic at Appalachian Power Park, 10 a.m. (2) Wahama vs. (3) Moorefield at Appalachian Power Park, 50 minutes after Game 1.

Young shot a 5-under 67 for a share of the early lead with Luke List, Cameron Smith and K.H. Lee. Cameron Young stays hot and shares early lead at Memorial By Doug Ferguson the PGA.

Smith was slowed by a few bogeys on the front nine after making the turn. Lee holed out from fairway on No. 9 for eagle, only to follow with backto-back bogeys. Will Zalatoris, who lost in the PGA Championship playoff to Thomas, had eight birdies in his round of 68 and wasn’t sure what to make of his round. “I did not think 68 with eight birdies was in the cards when I came out Monday, Tuesday,” Zalatoris said. He figured out the difference quickly, a wedge on the 13th hole that landed near the flag and spun back 15 feet. Earlier in the week, he saw shots like that bound over the green into trouble. What helped in any conditions was his putting. Zalatoris and 11 consecutive one-putt greens, one of those for bogey, until the streak ended when he missed a 12-foot birdie putt on the par-3 fourth. Defending champion Patrick Cantlay didn’t find nearly as many birdies as everyone else from the morning wave, just two birdies against two bogeys for an even-par 72. Collin Morikawa, who lost to Cantlay in the playoff at the Memorial last year, had two birdies for a 71. Jon Rahm, who had a six-shot lead after 54 holes last year until having to withdraw because of a positive COVID-19 test, played in the afternoon. Young recalls meeting Jack Nicklaus, the tournament host, at Pebble Beach in 2019 for the U.S. Open when he qualified for his first major as an amateur. It was special for at least one of them. “I’m sure he wouldn’t remember,” Young said. “He was walking at me and I said, ‘Hi, I’m Cameron.’ And he was very nice. Said hello and kind of moved on. But I was nobody. I just got out of college. So that’s really the only time I’ve been able to interact with him.” Nicklaus is always by the 18th green on Sunday to shake hands with the winner.

My friends, what the hell are you waiting for?” Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, the top Republican on the committee, said no one wants another tragedy. But he insisted the House bill would do nothing to stop mass shootings. “We need to get serious about understanding why this keeps happening. Democrats are always fixated on curtailing the rights of law-abiding citizens rather than trying to understand why this evil happens,” Jordan said. “Until we figure out the why, we will always mourn losses without facing the problem. Our job is to figure out the why.” A chief feature of the House bill requires those buying semi-automatic weapons to be at least 21. Only six states require someone to be at least 21 years old to buy rifles and shotguns. The shooters in Uvalde and Buffalo, New York, both were 18 and used an AR-15-style weapon. Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., said that it should be a red flag when an 18-year-old wants to buy “an assault weapon.” “That’s what they want on their 18th birthday is an assault weapon? They’ve got a problem, which means we’ve got a problem, which means those 19 kids and their parents and those two teachers have a problem, forever,” Cohen said, Daily Sentinel Photos by J.
