House approves ‘red
flag’ gun bill unlikely
to pass Senate
By Kevin Freking
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The House approved a “red
ﬂag” bill Thursday that would allow families,
police and others to ask federal courts to order the
removal of ﬁrearms from people at extreme risk of
harming themselves or others.
It’s the Democratic-controlled chamber’s latest
response to U.S. mass shootings and likely stands
little chance in the Senate.
Nineteen states and the District of Columbia
currently have such “red ﬂag” laws. Under the
House bill, a judge could issue an order to temporarily remove and store the ﬁrearms until a hearing can be held, up to two weeks later, to determine whether the ﬁrearms should be returned
or kept for a speciﬁc period. The bill passed on a
mostly party-line vote of 224-202.
“We are painfully aware that we cannot do
enough to save every life, and there is no one
answer that will solve this problem,” said Rep.
Jerrold Nadler, the Democratic chairman of the
House Judiciary Committee. “But we do know that
taking guns out of the hands of people who pose a
danger to themselves, or others, would save countless lives.”
The vote came after an emotional week that saw
congressional testimony from victims of recent
mass shootings in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, New
York, and came ahead of a planned march Saturday
in Washington by groups advocating stronger gun
controls.
On Wednesday the House passed a wide-ranging
gun control bill that would raise the age limit for
purchasing a semi-automatic riﬂe and prohibit
the sale of ammunition magazines with a capacity
of more than 15 rounds. It too, has virtually no
chance in the Senate.
House Republicans criticized the “red ﬂag” bill
as giving the federal government the ability to take
a law-abiding person’s guns without them having
the ability to contest it beforehand.
“It would allows the courts to take guns away
from people without notice and without even the
right to appear in the hearing to defend themselves in court,” said Rep. Mike Johnson, R-La.
The Congressional Budget Ofﬁce projects that
the bill would lead to roughly 10,000 emergency
petitions being ﬁled annually with the courts.

A step back in time
By Lorna Hart
lhart@aimmediamidwest.com

GALLIPOLIS — It was
a step back in time as
guests to the Our House
Tavern Museum mingled
among hosts in period
dress as dulcimer music
played in the Courtyard.
Visitors enjoyed speaking
with Gallia County Genealogy Society members
in the dining room and
watched as Patricia Flora
spun wool in the Ladies
Withdraw Room.
Cadot-Blessings Camp
126 Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War
reeneactors circulated
throughout the tavern,
while other members
encouraged visitors to try

on uniforms and interact
with Civil War artifacts in
the Courtyard.
Museum Director Beverly Jeffers said she was
pleased with the day’s
activities, but was especially excited when her
dream of bringing French
500 descents together
came to fruition. Notebooks from the descendants of the French 500
were on display in the
Ballroom, as two families
of those descendants met,
some of them for the ﬁrst
time. The Menagers were
comparing their blue
eyes, while the Thivenen
family were taking their
newfound cousins to visit Musical guests Bob and Kendra Ward Bence performed in the Our
House Tavern Courtyard.

Cremeens-King Funeral Home is serving the
family.

GENEVA — More than two years after coronavirus emerged in China and after at least 6.3
million deaths have been counted worldwide from
the pandemic, the World Health Organization is
recommending in its strongest terms yet that a
deeper probe is required into whether a lab accident may be to blame.
That stance marks a sharp reversal of the U.N.
health agency’s initial assessment of the pandemic’s origins, and comes after many critics accused
WHO of being too quick to dismiss or underplay
a lab-leak theory that put Chinese ofﬁcials on the
defensive.
WHO concluded last year that it was “extremely
unlikely” COVID-19 might have spilled into
humans in the city of Wuhan from a lab. Many scientists suspect the coronavirus jumped into people
from bats, possibly via another animal.
Yet in a report released Thursday, WHO’s expert
group said “key pieces of data” to explain how the
pandemic began were still missing. The scientists
said the group would “remain open to any and all
scientiﬁc evidence that becomes available in the
future to allow for comprehensive testing of all
reasonable hypotheses.”
Identifying a disease’s source in animals typically
takes years. It took more than a decade for scientists to pinpoint the species of bats that were the
natural reservoir for SARS, a relative of COVID-19.
WHO’s expert group also noted that since lab accidents in the past have triggered some outbreaks, the
highly politicized theory could not be discounted.

Gun
From page 1

The bill would also create a grant program at
the U.S. Department of Justice to encourage states
to adopt “red ﬂag” laws and support the 19 states
that have already implemented them.
Five Republican lawmakers voted for the bill:
Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Anthony
Gonzalez of Ohio, Chris Jacobs of New York,
Adam Kinzinger of Illinois and Fred Upton of
Michigan. Only Fitzpatrick is seeking reelection.
Rep. Jared Golden of Maine was the only Democratic member to vote no.
The lead sponsors of the bill were Democratic
Reps. Salud Carbajal of California and Lucy
McBath of Georgia, whose son, Jordan Davis, was
slain at a Jacksonville, Florida gas station in 2012
by a white man angry over the loud music the
Black teenager and his friends had been playing in
their car.
President Joe Biden strongly supports the bill.
The White House said it would “make signiﬁcant
progress toward keeping guns out of dangerous
hands.” However, the legislation is unlikely to
advance in the Senate, where at least 10 Republican senators would be needed.
Instead, senators are focusing on incremental
policy changes through a system that would send
funds and other incentives to states to bolster
security at school campuses, provide more mental health services to young people and possibly
encourage states to pursue red-ﬂag laws of their
own.
Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, who is leading negotiations on the Republican side, said one focus
is on enhancing the background check system
known as NICS, to include young buyers’ criminal
records before they turned 18.
“Adding juvenile records to the NICS system
is a common sense way to ensure we have a complete picture of the buyer’s history,” Cornyn said.
He voice optimism that senators will be able to
reach an agreement.
“Around here, if there’s a will, there is a way,
and I believe we do have the will and we will ﬁnd
the way,” Cornyn said.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.., said the
House stands ready to consider a gun bill from
the Senate “if it’s life-saving and can make a difference.”
But she cautioned: “We cannot have subterfuge.
We can’t have them say well, it’s about this and it’s
about that. No, it’s about guns.”

Ohio Valley Publishing

The preacher is a man put on the spot
God should be thanked
for the preachers who
preach the truths of God’s
Word and who serve
faithfully in the called-ofGod vocation of ministry.
The sermons they
preach are for the purpose of speaking to the
congregation on behalf of
Almighty God. It is a holy
and dynamic exchange
that goes on during the
delivery of a message
from the Book. The hope
of the saints depends
on it. The eternity of
the unsaved is affected
by it.. The morality of a
people is guided by it.
The demonstration of
the Spirit and of power is
manifested in it. Preaching is that critical experience whereby our faith
is strengthened to stand,

not in the wisdom of
men, but in the power of
God.
Men who rightly divide
the Word of God do not
promote what they perceive to be the truth, but
rather they believe what
God says is the truth.
They courageously stand
and proclaim, “THUS
SAITH THE LORD!”
They do not attempt the
give rhyme or reason to
the Scripture, but they
rather emphasize faith
that accepts as infallible
the truths of God knowing that “faith comes by
hearing, and hearing by
the Word.” People may
resist God’s truth, but
the Preacher during the
message insists on God’s
truth.

hold the Word of God in

to as “the foolishness of
preaching.” By standing
to declare Biblical tenets,
such a man becomes
engaged in God’s
ordained method of confronting the mystery of
human free will. To the
world, preaching appears
as foolishness, but the
foolishness of God is
wiser than men. To the
world, preaching appears
as a weak approach by
God, but the weakness
of God is stronger than
men. It prevails upon us,
therefore, to consider
the strain that weighs on
a preacher. The man is
situated between the hostility and rebelliousness
of human nature, and the
demands of God’s holy
expectations. He is a
man whose heart burns

for God. He is virtually
oblivious to the former,
and dedicated to the latter.
Church, if you have a
man who preaches the
fundamental truths of
God, respect the man,
not for who he is, but
for what he does. If he
proclaims “Thus saith
the Lord,” as it is proven
in Jesus Christ, then
embrace and incorporate
the Word of God in your
lives, and treat it as your
most value possession.
“Man shall not live by
bread alone, but by every
word that proceedeth out
of the mouth of God.”
Pastor Ron Branch lives in Mason
County and is pastor of Hope
Baptist Church, Middleport, Ohio.

Christ in us The sheep’s test, a test for all
Galatians 2:20 says, ” So I am not the one living now — it is Christ living in me. I still live in
my body, but I live by faith in the Son of God.
He is the one who loved me and gave Himself to
save me.” Paul wrote those words
to tell us that if we are Christians, it
is our faith in Jesus that is what is
important and helps us daily to live
for Him. Jesus loved us so much that
He died upon the cross to save us
from our sins. Because of that, we
can ask for His forgiveness when we
God’s Kids do wrong and know that we are free

Ann
again. That is a wonderful gift from
Moody
the Father to each and every one of
us, isn’t it?
Once when I was little, I helped some other
children make fun of another girl. I knew it was
wrong, but I did it anyway to be part of the group.
When she started crying, I realized just how awful
of a thing I was doing, and I felt horrible. But it
was too late; the damage to her was done. We
made her feel very ugly, unloved, and unimportant. After that, I was always nice to her and made
a point to play with her, so she knew she had
friends.
It wasn’t until I asked Jesus to forgive me too
that I really felt better about what I had done
though. That isn’t the only time I’ve had to ask
others and Jesus to forgive me for doing something I shouldn’t have, but you know what? I
always feel better when I do, and I always try not
to do the wrong thing again. Jesus helps me do
that also.
With Jesus living inside us, it is much easier to
do what is right. We usually know the difference
between right and wrong, so ask Jesus to help you
always choose the right. But if you do mess up
(and we all do), don’t forget to say you’re sorry
to anyone you might have hurt and then to Jesus.
You will feel so much better when you do and be
able to forget it much sooner.
Let’s say a prayer. Dear Jesus, help us to remember that apart from You, we can do nothing. You
will always be there when we need You to help us
to choose right over wrong. If we do make a mistake though, You will always be there to forgive us,
as well. In Your holy name we pray, Amen.

Ann Moody is a retired pastor, formerly of the Wilkesville First
Presbyterian Church and the Middleport First Presbyterian Church.

Imagine, if you will,
that a conscientious and
honest man were to discover an obviously wellloved and expensive looking dog wandering his
yard, and having secured
this dog, and advertising around that he is
looking for its owner, he
then has two different
individuals arrive at the
same time claiming to be
the dog’s owner. Rather
than simply handing
the dog off arbitrarily to
one or the other of the
claimants, it would seem
feasible to put the matter to some sort of test.
Let us then suppose that
both individuals, placed
apart, were to call the
dog by any name they
chose. If the dog were to
happily respond to one of
the names and moreover
were to speedily scamper
to the one calling that
name, leaping and cavorting, and if upon a doing
the test the second and
third time the dog repeatedly went to the same
person, licking the face,
jumping up in excitement
and in all ways responding with affection and
recognition, we might be
forgiven for thinking that
this individual, and not
the other, were the rightful owner.
We give names to children and pets anticipating that they will learn
their names and respond
when called. Moreover,
over time, we do not just
learn to respond to our
names, but even to the
sound of a familiar voice

NBA Finals
moment isn’t too
big for Celtics
By Tim Reynolds
AP Basketball Writer

Stephen Curry tried one of his patented ﬂoaters
from the left side of the rim. Klay Thompson tried
a layup from nearly the same spot a few minutes
later.
Slightly different shots from the Golden State
Warriors in the fourth quarter of Game 3 of the
NBA Finals, with exact same result: They were
spiked out of bounds by the Boston Celtics.
Robert Williams III had the block on Curry,
Jaylen Brown had the block on Thompson, and if
there were any lingering questions about whether
this stage -- the biggest one the NBA has -- is too
big for the Celtics, they were answered in those
sequences.
Thing is, the Celtics might be too big for the
Warriors.
Boston has half the job done in these NBA
Finals, now up 2-1 over Golden State after running out to a huge lead, wasting every bit of it and
then closing strong to win 116-100 on Wednesday
night. The Celtics, trailing late in the third quarter, faced pressure and stared it down. The Warriors now must do the same in Game 4 on Friday
night, or else.
“I don’t think at this point there’s any anxiety
from the players,” Celtics coach Ime Udoka said.
“It is what it is. We’ve been battle tested throughout the playoffs, and this far into a series, it should
be on to the next. I think we’ve seen what makes
us successful.”
Everybody has now.
Boston looks every bit the part of an NBA champion: The Celtics were bigger, stronger, faster and
tougher in Game 3, and if all that wasn’t damning
enough, the Warriors will wait to ﬁnd out if Curry
was simply shaken up after getting slammed into
by Boston’s Al Horford in the ﬁnal minutes while
a bunch of players were diving for a loose ball, or
if he’s re-sprained his left foot -- the same injury he
had late in the regular season, suffered, ironically,
against the Celtics.
“I’ll be all right,” Curry insisted.
The Warriors know what the alternative would
mean.
“We need him,” Thompson said, “if we want to
win this thing.”
It’s more than just needing Curry. At this point,
they might need him to be at his very best.
All, to be certain, is not lost. The Warriors have
won six consecutive games after a loss. They’ve
been here before. They’ve answered. The core
of Curry, Thompson and Draymond Green were
down 2-1 in the 2015 ﬁnals before rallying to win
their ﬁrst title together. They know how to turn
things around.
They need to do it again Friday, or else a Celtics

mistake was a fastball

zone that Smith snuck
just inside the right-ﬁeld
foul pole for a homer
leading off the Arizona
ﬁfth.
Mark Melancon (2-6),
the second of three
relievers for the Diamondbacks, got the win.
Ian Kennedy pitched the
ninth for his fourth save,
despite allowing Matt
Reynolds’ solo homer.
The Reds scored three
in the ﬁrst inning when
TJ Friedl, Brandon Drury
and Tommy Pham each
singled to load the bases
with no outs and Joey
Votto doubled home two
runs. Kyle Farmer added
a sacriﬁce ﬂy.
The Reds were relatively quiet after that. Zach
Davies went six for the
Diamondbacks, allowing
six hits while striking out
seven.

CINCINNATI — Josh
Rojas hit a go-ahead single during a four-run rally
in the ninth inning and
the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Cincinnati
Reds 5-4 on Thursday,
earning a split in the fourgame series.
The Diamondbacks
went into the ninth trailing 3-1, but got help from
reliever Tony Santillan’s
wild tosses.
Pavin Smith drew a
leadoff walk, went to
second on a wild pitch by
Santillan (0-1) and scored
on Alek Thomas’ single.
Santillan then threw away
a bunt for an error, and

Reds beat pitcher Sims in salary arbitration

Steven Senne | AP

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (0) and guard Marcus
Smart (36) react at the end of Game 3 of the NBA Finals
against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday in Boston.

CINCINNATI (AP) —
Pitcher Lucas Sims lost
to the Cincinnati Reds
in salary arbitration on
Thursday and will get
$1.2 million instead of
his $1.6 million request,
leaving clubs with a 7-3
advantage in decisions
with ﬁve cases remaining.
Margaret Brogan, Robert Herzog and Jeanne
Vonhof issued the deci-

sion, a day after hearing
arguments.
Sims was 5-3 with a
4.40 ERA and seven saves
in 10 chances last season,
striking out 76 and walking 18 in 47 innings. He
earned $598,500 and was
eligible for arbitration for
the ﬁrst time.
A 28-year-old righthander, Sims is 1-0 with
a 9.45 ERA in six appear-

ances this season. He
started the season on
the injured list because
of back spasms, pitched
for the Reds from April
23 to May 10, then went
back on the IL because
his back.
Catchers Willson Contreras of the Chicago
Cubs ($9,625,000) and
Gary Sánchez of the Minnesota Twins ($9 million)

reached agreement at
their midpoints on Thursday that avoided hearings.
No statistics or evidence from after March 1
are admissible other than
contract and salary comparisons. The timing was
set when Major League
Baseball and the players’
association agreed to
the deal that ended the

No. 1? Magic work out Smith in advance of NBA draft
By Tim Reynolds
AP Basketball Writer

ORLANDO, Fla. —
Jabari Smith didn’t even
attempt to minimize the
signiﬁcance of what was
happening. He was in an
NBA gym, wearing NBA
apparel, getting guidance
from NBA coaches.
It was a big moment for
him.
It’ll lead to a big decision for the Orlando
Magic.
Smith did the ﬁrst
of his two planned preNBA draft workouts on
Thursday, the former
Auburn All-American
going through drills for
the Magic — the team
that holds the No. 1 pick
for the June 23 draft. His
other workout will be for
Oklahoma City, the team
that has the No. 2 selection.

Butch Dill | AP file

Auburn forward Jabari Smith (10) reacts after making a 3-pointer
against Alabama on Feb. 1 in Auburn, Ala. The Orlando Magic have
the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming June 23rd NBA Draft. Smith
is the first of three major prospects the team plans to work out in
the coming days/weeks.

“If I said I wasn’t nervous, I’d be lying,” Smith
said. “Coming into it, I
was nervous. But everybody talking to me and
getting me through it just
kind of relaxed me a little
bit. And then, just have
some fun with it — that’s
what I tried to do.”

IN BRIEF

Giants cancel practice on final
day of mandatory minicamp

OH-70286361

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The New York
Giants canceled practice after holding a team meeting on Thursday, wrapping up a mandatory three-day
minicamp.
The team said it was holding an organizational function instead of a practice. That means the next time
the Giants and coach Brian Daboll will get together
on the ﬁeld will be July 26, when the team reports for
the start of training camp.
New York has posted ﬁve straight losing seasons
since last making the playoffs in 2016 under Ben
McAdoo. The organization ﬁred general manager
Dave Gettleman and coach Joe Judge following a 4-13
record last season.
Former Buffalo assistant general manager Joe Schoen
was hired to replace Gettleman. Daboll, the Bills’ offensive coordinator, was chosen to replace Judge.
With a new coach, the Giants were allowed to start
offseason workouts two weeks early. It’s possible
Daboll was able to ﬁnish what he wanted to install
and gave the players a break on the ﬁnal day.
Players seemingly didn’t know their ﬁnal workout
would be canceled but they did meet as a group on the
ﬁeld after Wednesday’s practice.

The workout at the
AdventHealth Practice
Facility at Amway Center,
the team’s home arena,
was closed to everyone
except Magic personnel. But a few fans, so to
speak, got in anyway: As
Smith’s workout went on,
the doors on one end of

the court kept opening
as interested parties kept
arriving -- Magic players,
including Cole Anthony,
Mo Bamba and Jonathan
Isaac.
There was applause at
times, even a few audible
cheers. Clearly, at least
some of the onlookers
were enjoying the show.
Smith said he was getting
help from the players who
were watching, even if it
just meant a few handshakes and a quick bit of
praise.
“It was my ﬁrst workout, so the ﬁrst experience that I’ll never forget,
really,” said the 19-yearold Smith. “It was it
was fun to get out here
and push myself and get
through it.”
The consensus is that
there are three players
above most others in the
draft — Smith, Gonzaga’s

Celtics

Chet Holmgren and
Duke’s Paolo Banchero.
All are forwards, all at
least 6-foot-10 (Holmgren
is a 7-footer), all played
one year of college ball
and all ﬁgure to be meriting serious consideration
for the No. 1 spot.
Smith averaged 16.9
points and 7.4 rebounds
in his lone season at
Auburn, shooting 43%
from the ﬁeld and 42%
from 3-point range.
Against teams that were
ranked in the AP Top
25 when facing Auburn,
Smith averaged 20.8
points and 6.4 rebounds.
But it’s the two-way game
— Smith excels defensively — that might rate
him the edge in the race
to be the No. 1 selection.
“I just think it’s my
will to win that sets me
apart,” Smith said. “I
don’t really care about

stats and glamour and all
that. I just want to really
win and play to win every
game.”
When it was over and
the workout was done,
Smith looked around for a
moment at the gym, taking it all in. On Thursday,
he was a guest, auditioning.
In a couple weeks, the
same gym might become
home.
“I think I can ﬁt in it
really well,” Smith said.
“Seeing the guys and seeing the players, this is a
young team, one of the
youngest in the league.
So, adding me would just
add another young player
who was hungry and got
a lot left in the tank. So,
I’ll add some energy and
