Sheriff warns of phone scams
By Lindsay Kriz

lkriz@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — The Meigs
County Sheriff’s Office warns
residents about recent phone
scams that are on the rise in
the area, according to multiple
calls made to the department
from citizens.
Some phone scams include
calls from people claiming to
be from the Powerball Lottery, IRS, Federal Reserve and
United States Department of
Treasury. During these calls,
the caller will promise a large
amount of money to the victim once a smaller amount is

paid to them, typically via an
untraceable account, including
a prepaid debit/credit card, a
Green Dot Card and others.
Another popular phone
scam that Sheriff Keith Wood
wants to warn residents
about focuses on the elderly.
The caller will pretend to be
a loved one who is in jail or
stranded. In particular, during
these types of scams the caller
will claim they are in jail in
another state, or are stranded
in another state or country and
attempting to get home. Once
the scammer claims they are
in jail, they request that money
be sent to them through a wire

transfer or prepaid credit or
debit cards to an account that
the individual says belongs to
the jail, police department or
sheriff’s office. Wood warns
residents that this is not something a real jail, police department or sheriff’s office would
ask for.
Another popular phone scam
is someone claiming to be a family member who asks the victim
to push a certain button or
series of buttons to decline further calls, which in turn allows
the caller to “spoof” the victim’s
number, or use it at a later time
to hide their own number. In
turn, this makes it very difficult

to trace the scammer’s call.
Wood reminds residents
to never give out private
information, including one’s
Social Security number, bank
information, credit/debit card
information, information about
friends and family, and do not
send money.
The Meigs County Sheriff’s
Office provides the following
ways to avoid being scammed:
Never accept calls from an
unknown phone number.
Never send money when
there is a promise of a larger
amount.
If you think you are being
scammed, hang up. Staying on

the line after certain button
combinations are pushed can
give the scammer access to
more private information.
If you are unsure of the number, research the number on
the Internet and see if it has
been used in previous scams.
If it sounds too good to be
true, it probably is. There is no
such thing as free money.
Wood urges citizens to call
his office at 740-992-3371
or visit the website at www.
meigssheriff.org to ask any
questions or leave a tip on further scams.

Board approves
tobacco-free
district policy
By April Jaynes

ajaynes@civitasmedia.com

GALLIPOLIS — Policies prohibiting student
use of tobacco, alcohol and drugs on school property — as well as a 100 percent tobacco-free district policy — were reviewed and approved by the
Gallipolis City Schools Board of Education at their
most recent meeting.
The 100 percent tobacco-free policy on school
property that was adopted is defined to include
“any lighted or unlighted cigarette, cigar, pipe,
clove cigarette, alternative nicotine products,
electronic cigarettes, any other smoking product
and spit tobacco, also known as smokeless, dip,
chew and snuff in any form,” according to the “No
Tobacco Use on District Property” policy.
“No Tobacco” signs will be posted throughout
the district at various locations and tobacco advertising is prohibited on school grounds.
“Citizens failing to comply with this policy are
educated as to state law and the board’s policy on
smoking. Persons refusing to extinguish smoking
materials are directed to leave school property and
may be fined by the Ohio Department of Health or
its designees,” according to the policy.
The “Tobacco Use by Students” policy states
that no student is permitted to smoke, inhale, dip
or chew tobacco at any time — including nonschool hours — in any building, facility, parking
lots, athletic facilities or vehicle owned, leased,
rented or chartered by the district or at any
school-sponsored event off campus.
“Additionally, no student is permitted to possess
cigarettes, other tobacco products, papers used
to roll cigarettes, lighter or other paraphernalia at
any time,” according to the policy.
The “Alcohol Use by Students/Student Drug
Abuse” policy prohibits alcohol and drug use, as
well as any substances represented as a controlled
substance, nonalcoholic beers, steroids, tobacco
and tobacco products and drug paraphernalia.
“The board does not permit any student to possess, transmit, conceal, offer for sale, consume,
show evidence of having consumed or used any

‘Gallipolis in Lights’ to shine on
By April Jaynes
ajaynes@civitasmedia.com

GALLIPOLIS — A
team of Christmas enthusiasts are hard at work to
light up Gallipolis City
Park in time for this holiday season via “Gallipolis
in Lights 2014” — with
more than double the
amount of light balls of
last year’s lighting.
Co-chair of the Gallipolis in Lights group, Shari
Rocchi, said last year was
the first year in which
the group lit up the park,
with 260 light balls. This
year the group is adding

400 more light balls —
totaling about 660 light
balls this year.
The goal for this year
is to light up the entire
perimeter of the park,
Rocchi said.
“We work really hard
to pull it off,” she said.
The project is a fouryear plan in which the
group will work progressively over the next four
years to increase the
amount of lights, with
the goal of creating a
Christmas winter wonderland that will attract
visitors from near and
far during the holiday

season. The ultimate goal
is to promote the city
and local vendors, Rocchi
said.
“Gallipolis in Lights”
is completely funded by
community donations
from individuals, businesses and other organizations.
Lance Clifford, cochair of the group, said
the project costs around
$18,000 per year to
upkeep.
The light balls are constructed of chicken wire
and LED lights, which
Clifford said are expensive but long-lasting and

sustainable for the longterm project.
“The emphasis is on
quality and community,”
Clifford said.
This year, volunteers
began meeting to wrap
lights around the wire
balls during the summer,
and Clifford said the
Gallia County Sheriff’s
Work Release Program
constructed most of the
wire balls for the group
this year.

POMEROY — The Meigs County Sheriff’s Office recently made
two drug busts in the county.
The first occurred at 122 E.
Main St. in Pomeroy when officers
received a tip Oct. 10 about drug
activity at the residence.
Upon investigation, Sgt. Adam
Smith and Deputy Jordan Snoke
seized drug paraphernalia along
with a copious amount of suspected
heroin and cocaine. Meigs County
K-9 unit also assisted at the scene,

locating suspected drugs
hidden in the building.
During the investigation,
deputies took Kaleigh Horn,
24, of Chillicothe, into custody. This incident is currently
under investigation. Horn is
being held at the Middleport Horn
Jail for alleged trafficking
in drugs, possession of heroin and
possession of cocaine. The sheriff’s
office received assistance from
Meigs County Children’s Services.
On Oct. 15, the sheriff’s office
received a call from a road cleanup
crew in reference to a possible

meth lab at the intersection
of Ohio 692 and Gibson
Road in Scipio Township.
Upon arrival, Sgt. Smith,
who is trained in neutralization and disposal of meth
labs, was able to identify the
meth lab as the remainder
of an HCL generator, and
safely disposed of it.
Meigs County Sheriff Keith
Wood said the office will continue
to combat drugs issues “on our
watch,” and encouraged Meigs
County residents to report drug
activities at www.meigssheriff.org.

Staff Report

The contract can help teens
stay safer and avoid common
mistakes that can also increase
insurance rates.
Parents should set aside time
with an agent to ensure the
family has adequate insurance
protection, Taylor said. Most
insurance companies consider
unmarried drivers under the
age of 25 a higher risk, which
can translate into higher auto
insurance premiums.
To assist parents, Taylor and
Born offered tips to help physically and financially protect
driving teens:
Lay the Ground Rules:
Establish driving rules for safe
driving, such as not speeding,
seat belt usage, maximum number of passengers, no mobile
phone texting, (now illegal
for teens in Ohio as is talking
on the phone for those 17 and
under), and the amount and
time of day driving is permitted. Consider these items as
part of your teen driver contract. You can create one online
at www.insureuonline.org/
teen_driver_certificate.htm.
Review Ohio’s distracted driving law at www.bmv.ohio.gov/
texting_ban.stm.

Shop Around: Ohio has a
competitive personal auto insurance market, however, no two
insurance companies charge
the same rates. Compare costs
and coverages between insurers
since having a teen driver in the
household does affect the family’s auto insurance premium.
Consider discounts that various
insurance companies offer, such
as good student discounts. In
addition, most insurers offer
discounts for having more than
one car on a policy or having
both your auto and homeowners insurance with the same
company.
Purchasing a Vehicle for
your Teen Driver: The difference in the cost of auto insurance for a teen driving a more
expensive sports car compared
to a modestly priced economy
car with liability coverage can
be significant. If you’re shopping for a vehicle for your teen
driver, the cost of insurance
should be part of the conversation. Discuss options with
your insurance agent. They can
provide quotes on the cost of
insurance for the various vehicles you may be considering to
purchase.

THEIR VIEW

Privacy
doesn’t end
with your
smartphone
After losing a battle in front of the Supreme
Court this summer, law enforcement officials once
again were using fear tactics in hopes the public
would be willing to give up their right to privacy
in return for an unknown amount of security.
Government officials previously argued that
they should not have to obtain a warrant before
searching a person’s cellphone. Thankfully, the
Supreme Court ruled that was unconstitutional.
However, the justices agreed that the government
should be able to search a phone without a warrant to stop an immediate threat of a terrorist
attack or rescue a kidnapping victim. In those —
extreme and rare circumstances — the court ruled
(and encouraged) officers to search the phone just
as they would search a building without a warrant.
Last month, Apple and Google added a wrinkle
to this equation by announcing newer versions of
their phone software would be unencryptable —
even by Apple and Google employees. The companies believe a large number of their customers are
concerned their information, messages, photos,
location and financial data could be stolen by hackers (like the intimate photos of celebrities), or
illegally viewed by government agents working for
any number of local, state or federal crime-fighting
organizations — some of whom actually argued
they had a right to every American’s cellphone
information on demand and without a court order.
This new technology also would mean law
enforcement agents might not be able to get the
information held by smartphones even if they had
a warrant.
We suspect this is more marketing hyperbole
than actual reality.
The U.S. government’s experience both fighting
hackers and using their tactics to spy on criminals
(and innocent Americans) leads us to believe
criminals and government agents probably will
find a way to quickly override the new technology.
However, Attorney General Eric H. Holder
Jr., FBI Director James B. Comey and John J.
Escalante, chief of detectives for Chicago’s police
department, all argued the new technology would
be a boon to criminals.
“Apple will become the phone of choice for the
pedophile,” Escalante said. “The average pedophile at this point is probably thinking, ‘I’ve got to
get an Apple phone.’”
Comments like that show why it can be difficult
to disagree with people who tend to view things
only in worst-case scenario situations.
You say, “The Constitution gives American
citizens a right to privacy,” and they respond that
pedophiles and terrorists will go free. No one
wants pedophiles and terrorists to succeed in their
evil deeds, but that does not mean every American
should be treated like a criminal and forced to give
up their privacy, or that new technology should be
hobbled to make life easier in Washington.
The government’s position on this issue is like
arguing homeowners should leave their doors
unlocked just in case police officers ever need
to rush in and stop a crime. Criminals always
found ways to hide and destroy evidence, and law
enforcement officers find ways to investigate and
arrest them. Despite the rhetoric, we don’t believe
this will change — even if smartphone technology
does.
We hope Google, Apple and other technology
companies don’t bend on this issue and that some
members of our government recognize constitutional rights always should trump expedience.

always arrived early to get the best

was a state championship game
for our high school or if it was the
infrequent community competition
of Daddy-Daughter Pig wrestling.
And each time the game was over,
whether or not her team won, Jana
was always the one who cheered
the loudest.
But what was more important in
our little community was that Jana
was a cheerleader for the youth.
She was there to encourage and
help the young people through the
tough times of their lives, not just
in sports. Some of my own daughters, as teenagers, knew that Jana
was a lady they could count on.
She was always first to arrive when
someone needed a friend.
So when Jana died suddenly,
unexpectedly, and fairly young,
I figured that she was just going
early so she could claim a front
row seat, allowing her to cheer for
those she loved when they finished
their game.

Raiders fend off Vikings, 21-18
By Bryan Walters

River Valley junior Mike Williams leads a gang of Raider defenders in bringing
down Vinton County runningback Kelton Collins (25) during the second half of
Friday night’s Week 8 football contest at Raider Field in Bidwell, Ohio.

BIDWELL, Ohio — There’s
a first time for everything.
The River Valley football
team picked up its first-ever TriValley Conference Ohio Division victory Friday night following a hard-fought 21-18 decision
over visiting Vinton County in
a Week 8 Senior Night matchup
in Gallia County.
The Raiders (4-4, 1-4 TVC
Ohio) trailed 12-7 late in the second quarter, but the hosts rallied
with 14 straight points to secure
a 21-12 edge in the opening
moments of the fourth quarter.
The Vikings (1-7, 0-4)

quickly countered with a long
scoring play to close to within
three points with just over
10 minutes left in regulation,
then neither defense allowed
another point the rest of the
way — allowing RVHS to
snap a four-game losing skid
while also sending a half-dozen
seniors out in style during
their final home contest.
Afterwards, fourth-year
RVHS coach Jerrod Sparling
spoke about the historical
importance of this triumph.
Not so much in a league manner, but rather how far his
upperclassmen had grown
since he took over the program
when they were freshmen.

“I couldn’t be prouder of
those seniors than I am right
now. When I got here three
years ago, the program was
dark — I mean we were getting beat by 40 and 50 points
a game,” Sparling said. “Those
guys stuck with the program
and trusted what we are trying
to build this program into, and
that isn’t always the easiest
thing for young men to do.
“Tonight’s game shows you
how far they have come and
what kind of players they are
becoming. There was adversity
tonight like there has been
over the last three years, but

Blue Devils
waylay Warren
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

VINCENT, Ohio — The
Gallia Academy football
team kept pace in the
Southeastern Ohio Athletic League with a 20-6
victory over host Warren,
Friday night in Washington County.
After a scoreless first
quarter the Blue Devils
(4-4, 2-0 SEOAL) broke
the stalemate with a 27
yard touchdown pass
from Kole Carter to Blake
Wilson. Dylan Saunders
added the extra point and
GAHS led 7-0 with 6:19
remaining in the first half.
The teams were unable
to score in the third
period, but just 45 seconds
into the fourth Gallia
Academy found paydirt
again, as Carter connected with Matt Bailey
for a five yard touchdown
pass. Saunders added
the PAT and GAHS led
14-0. Eric Ward’s five yard
touchdown run with 1:54
remaining in regulation
gave the Blue Devils a
three score advantage.
Warren (1-7, 0-2) found
the endzone for the first
time of the game with
1:06 left on the clock,
when quarterback Andrew
Henthorn punched the ball
in from two yards out. It
was a case of too little, too
late and Gallia Academy
claimed the 20-6 victory.
The Blue Devils were
outgained 223-to-177 in
total yards and 169-to-87
on the ground. Warren
also held a 12-to-10 advantage in first downs. GAHS
was penalized 16 times for

a total of 129 yards, while
the Warriors were flagged
12 times for 130 yards.
Gallia Academy was led
by Carter with 90 yards
through the air on 6-of-9
passing with two touchdowns, while rushing for
31 yards on 24 tries. Ward
led the rushing attack with
44 yards and a score on 10
rushes, while Halley was
the leading GAHS receiver
with 49 yards and a score
on three receptions. Blake
Wilson caught two passes
for 36 yards and ran three
times for 12 yards, while
Matt Bailey caught one pass
for five yards and a score.
Jared Isner led Warren with 106 yards on 18
carries, while Henthorn
marked 44 yards rushing
on 11 attempts and 54
yards passing on 3-of-10
with an interception.
The Blue Devil defense
was led by Ward with nine
tackles, followed by Halley
with five tackles and an
interception. Eric Sheets
also intercepted a pass for
GAHS.
Gallia Academy now
holds a 22-5 record over
Warren in alltime meetings. The Warriors have
now dropped six consecutive contests since defeating Marietta in Week 2.
The Blue Devils will
travel to 3-5 Logan Friday
night, while Warren is set
to take on 1-7 Portsmouth.
The Trojans dropped a
49-7 decision to Jackson
on Friday, while the Chiefs
were bettered by Zanesville by a 24-14 count.

Lady Tornadoes topple Eastern
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

RACINE, Ohio —
Technically, the Lady
Tornadoes were just finishing what they started.
The Eastern volleyball
team had its 18-year district tournament streak
come to an end as host
Southern completed the
season trifecta Thursday
night with an emphatic
25-21, 25-15, 25-11 victory in a Division IV
sectional final between
Meigs County programs.
The fourth-seeded
Lady Tornadoes (15-5)
earned their third consecutive straight-game
win over the fifth-seeded
Lady Eagles (9-14) this
fall, which also led to
the hosts’ first sectional
title since 2004. SHS also
won by counts of 25-9,
25-10, 25-11 and 25-9,
25-19, 25-16 in the two
TVC Hocking contests
during the regular season.
This year served as the
first time in which Southern both won at EHS
and swept the homeand-home league series
since 1996, which also
happens to be the beginning of Eastern’s run of
18 consecutive sectional
crowns before Thursday
night. The Lady Eagles
avenged those two regular season losses in 1996
and defeated SHS in a
sectional final to begin
their nearly two decadeold reign.
Southern earned its
eighth sectional title in
program history, but has
never had a volleyball

squad get past the district finals. SHS will face
top-seeded Portsmouth
Notre Dame at 6 p.m.
Thursday, Oct. 23, in a
district semifinal at Jackson High School.
As for now, first-year
SHS coach Chris Carroll
is pleased with how far
his troops have come in
the last two-plus months.
Carroll — a 2005 Eastern graduate — is a big
believer in reaping what
you sow, which was a
main point of his afterwards.
“When you look up
at our banners, we now
have eight sectionals …
while Eastern had 18
straight,” Carroll said.
“Eastern worked hard to
accomplish that impressive streak, much like we
have worked hard for this
sectional title this year.
“When I got here, the
one thing that I stressed
from my days at Eastern
was that hard work can
make you successful. The
girls bought in to that
belief and now they are
being rewarded for their
hard work. I’m proud of
my girls and their effort,
both tonight and this
season.”
There were a total
of 16 ties and 19 lead
changes throughout the
match, and both squads
led at least once in each
of the three contests.
The Lady Eagles took
six of their eight leads in
the opening game, while
Southern claimed 10 of
its 11 leads after Game 1.
Eastern stormed out
to an early 13-7 edge in

the opener, but SHS rallied to knot things up at
15-all. The hosts took
their first lead at 16-15
and never looked back en
route to a four-point win
in Game 1.
The guests took their
only lead of Game 2 at
9-8, but the Lady Tornadoes countered with
15 of the next 19 points
to secure their first of
three 10-point leads at
23-13. Both teams traded
points the rest of the way
before Southern claimed
a 10-point win for a 2-0
match lead.
Eastern led by as much
as 5-3 in the finale, but
Southern rallied to tie

things up at six before
claiming a permanent
lead at 8-6. EHS twice
pulled to within a point
at 8-7 and 9-8, but
the Lady Tornadoes
answered with five
straight points for a 14-8
cushion.
The hosts went on to
score 11 of the final 14
points — which included
Ali Deem serving up
the final six points — to
wrap up the 14-point
decision and the 3-0
match triumph.
It was a tough night
— and a tough season
— for second-year EHS
coach Katie Williams,

Wahama rallies past Rebels, 44-32
By Gary Clark

For Ohio Valley Publishing

MASON, W.Va. — Kaileb Sheets scored a pair of
touchdowns and ran for
197 yards in 33 carries to
lead the Wahama White
Falcons to a come-frombehind 44-32 gridiron victory over visiting South
Gallia Friday evening
before a large homecoming gathering at the Bend
Area School.
Sheets also booted
four point-after kicks and
passed for another twopoint conversion as Wahama snapped its two-game
losing skid and kept their
2014 playoff expectations
alive. Demitrius Serevicz
added four touchdowns
and a two-point conversion run while rushing for
132 yards in 20 carries to
lead the White Falcons.
The win pushed the
17th ranked Falcons’
season record to 5-3 on
the season and 5-2 inside
the Hocking Division of
the Tri-Valley Conference.
South Gallia dropped to
4-4 on the year and 3-3
in league play but more
importantly the Rebels
likely saw its post-season
desires suffer a disastrous
demise.
South Gallia failed to
capitalize on an early 12-0
advantage as Wahama
scored 37 unanswered
points with Serevicz
getting the call on runs
of three, five, seven and
three yards with Sheets
adding scampers of
39 and one yards. The

Rebels fell behind by as
many as 25 points before
the visitors scored three
times in the final quarter
to close the gap to 44-32.
Penalties proved to be
a decisive factor in the
Rebels’ downfall as South
Gallia was flagged a total
of 10 times for 95 yards.
The White Falcons were
able to overcome three
turnovers in the affair
by capitalizing on the
continuing inability of the
Gallia Countians to cease
its penalty infested play.
South Gallia opened
the contest with an opening drive that covered 58
yards in nine plays. The
Rebels capped off the
series with a five yard
touchdown pass from
Landon Hutchinson to
Colton Coughenour. The
conversion passed failed
and South Gallia led by
an early 6-0 margin with
6:15 to play in the first
quarter.
The Rebels added to
its edge midway through
the second canto when
the Gallia County eleven
came up with a Falcon
fumble at the Wahama
47 yard line. Three plays
later Johnny Sheets sailed
around the far sideline on
a 51 yard jaunt to push
the South Gallia lead to
12-0 with 6:43 remaining
in the half.
A 69 yard eight play
series following the
ensuing kickoff allowed
Wahama back into contention. Behind the running of Kaileb Sheets the
White Falcons drove to

the Rebel three where
Serevicz received the
call and scored with 5:51
left in the second stanza.
Serevicz also added the
two-point conversion to
pull Wahama to within
four at 12-8.
The White Falcons
gained its first lead of the
night on its next possession as the Bend Area
team went 64 yards in
five plays. A 19 yard pass
completion from Sheets
to Garrett Miller was
the big play in the series
with Serevicz again culminating the drive with
a five yard scoring run
with 1:34 remaining in
the half. Sheets booted
the point after to give
Wahama a 15-12 edge at
the halfway point of the
gridiron encounter.
Wahama added two
more scores in the third
period with Serevicz
scoring from seven yards
out and Sheets racing 39
yards into the end zone
in the final minute of the
quarter. Sheets booted
the PAT following the
first score before tossing
a two-point conversion
pass to Timmy Gibbs
after the second touchdown to increase the Falcon’s lead to 30-12.
Serevicz opened the
fourth period scoring
with a three yard run
with Sheets knocking
down the point after kick
to shove the Bend Area
teams’ advantage to 37-12
before South Gallia rallied with a pair of fourth
quarter kickoff returns

and a 46 yard Landon
Hutchinson run in the
final period.
Jordan Howell surprised the Mason County
eleven with a 54 yard
kickoff return with
Isiah Geiger hauling in
a two point conversion
pass from Hutchinson.
Hutchinson would later
add a 46 yard scoring
run for another South
Gallia six points five
minutes later. Wahama
would answer the pair of
touchdowns with a one
yard Sheets run before
Isiah Geiger would return
another Falcon kickoff 79
yards for the final touchdown of the night.
Wahama held a decisive
edge in the game’s final
statistics with the Bend

Area team tallying 24 first
downs, 361 rushing yards
and another 46 yards
through the airways for
a net total of 407 yards
in total offense. Sheets
totaled 197 yards on the
ground with Serevicz
inching closer to the 1000
yard mark with 132 yards.
Sheets completed three
of eight aerials for 46
yards with Garrett Miller
catching one for 19 yards,
Jarod Nutter one for 14
yards and Phillip Hoffman
one for 13 yards.
South Gallia picked up
nine first downs with 221
yards on the ground and
another 52 yards through
the air for 273 yards
offensively. Hutchinson
netted 71 yards on the
ground in 14 carries with

Johnny Sheets collecting
69 yards in eight tries
and Dakota Wroten 66
yards in 11 attempts.
Hutchinson connected
on six of 10 passes for 52
yards and a touchdown
with Geiger hauling in
two passes for 23 yards,
Sheets one for 12 yards,
Owen Bevan one for eight
yards, Colton Coughenour one for five yards
and a score and Lane
Hutchinson one for four
yards.
Wahama will take to
the road next week and
visit Miller for a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking
Division contest with the
Falcons while South Gallia will trek to Southern
for a league affair.

Eagles fall to
Trimble, 65-6
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — The streaks continue.
Visiting Trimble picked up its 25th straight regular
season victory Friday night following a convincing 65-6 decision over the Eastern football team in
a Week 8 Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division
matchup at East Shade River Stadium in Meigs
County.
The Tomcats (8-0, 7-0 TVC Hocking) won their
22nd consecutive TVC Hocking contest while also
picking up their 14th straight win over the host
Eagles (4-4, 4-2). EHS last defeated the reigning
Division VII state runners-up back in 2000 by a 34-6
margin.
Trimble dominated both sides of the football as
the guests accumulated a 464-33 overall edge in total
yards of offense, which included a balanced attack of
261 rushing yards on 27 carries and another 203 passing yards.
EHS, conversely, netted just 75 passing yards and
went backwards on the ground, amassing negative 42
yards on 24 rushing tries. THS also claimed an 11-2
edge in first downs in the triumph.
The Tomcats led 28-0 after one quarter and were
ahead 47-0 by halftime, then the lead grew to as much
as 53-0 early in the third before Eastern’s lone offensive bright spot happened. Daschle Facemyer hauled
in a 27-yard scoring pass from Jett Facemyer at the
3:26 mark of the third, allowing EHS to pull to within
53-6 headed into the fourth.
Trimble tacked on its ninth and 10th touchdowns
of the night in the finale, wrapping up the 59-point
triumph.
Austin Downs hauled in five touchdown passes
from Andrew Losey, which covered distances of 3,
14, 20, 3 and 42 yards. Justice Jenkins also rushed for
three scores from 26, 20 and 56 yards out, while Caullin Lunsford and Nathan Downs each added a 10-yard
TD scamper to round out the scoring for THS.
Trimble finished the night plus-2 in turnover differential, which included an interception and two fumble
recoveries by the guests. The Tomcats were flagged
four times for 30 yards while the hosts were penalized
five times for 59 yards.
Daschle Facemyer led the Eastern rushing attack
with seven carries for seven yards, followed by Triston Goodnight with four carries for four yards and
Tyler Morris with one tote for two yards.
Jett Facemyer completed 9-of-14 passes for 75
yards, which included one TD and one interception.
Christian Speelman led the Eagle wideouts with six
catches for 53 yards.
Jenkins led the THS rushing attack with 10 carries
for 166 yards. Losey completed 16-of-24 passes for
203 yards and five scores, while Austin Downs led the
wideouts with 10 catches for 116 yards and five TDs.

8 football contest at Tanks Memorial Stadium in Ironton, Ohio.

Ironton mauls Marauders, 41-18
By Dave Harris

For Ohio Valley Publishing

IRONTON, Ohio — The Ironton Fighting Tigers blew open a
close game with a 21-point third
period and went on to defeat the
Meigs Marauders 41-18 in nonconference football action Friday
night at Bob Lutz Field and Tanks
Memorial Stadium.
The Marauders spear headed
by career passing night by sophomore quarterback Cody Bartrum,
were able to move the ball against
the Tigers, but to Ironton’s credit,
the Tigers defense made the stops
when they had to.
Meigs showed the Tigers they
meant business, when on the first
play Isaiah English on a flea flicker hit Ty Phelps down the right
side line for a 39 yard gain to the
Tiger 19 yards line, but the Ironton defense rose to the occasion,
forcing the Marauders to turn the
ball over on downs.
The Tigers hit pay dirt first
when Andrew Barker plowed
over from a yard out. Luke Kelley
added the extra points for a 7-0
Ironton lead with 2:12 left in the
first period.

D’Angelo Palladino scored from
a yard out after a Meigs turnover.
Big play in the drive was a 51
yard pass from Tristan Cox to Joe
Bowling to give the Tigers the
ball at the Meigs five. Kelley was
true with his kick and the Tigers
held a 14-0 lead at the 9:58 mark
of the first half.
Meigs scored with 34 second
in the half to pull to within 14-6,
when Davis pulled in a 21 yards
pass from Bartrum. Bartrum in
the scoring drive was seven of
eight in the air for 64 yards.
On the first play of the third
period, Palladino went up the
middle 66 yards for the score;
Kelley’s kick made it 21-6 just 11
seconds into the second half.
The Marauders drove inside the
Tiger 25, but Nick Combs was
stopped short on the first down
on fourth down. Seven plays later
Cox hit Hunter Weber on a 55
yard scoring pass, Kelley added
the extra points and a 28-6 Ironton lead.
Meigs cut into the lead when
Phelps caught a 14 yard scoring
toss from Bartrum with 2:37 left
cutting the lead to 28-12.

Two one yard scoring runs by
Desmond Young put Ironton up
41-12 with 5:43 left in the third
period. Davis scored his second
touchdown of the night for the
Marauders when he pulled in
a short pass from Bartrum and
weaved through the Tiger defense
39 yards for the score to close out
the scoring of a 41-18 Tiger win.
Bartrum was outstanding for
the maroon and gold completing
23 of 34 in the air for a career
high 231 yards, English was one
for one for 39. English caught 10
passes for 80 yards, Phelps seven
for 81, Davis three for 39 and
Colton Lilly four for 32. Davis
carried 16 times for 65 yards, and
English once for 30 to lead Meigs.
Palladino led the Tigers with

who played a key part in four of those Eastern sectional titles as a player from 2004 through 2007. Williams was most honorable, however, in complimenting
Southern on its major accomplishment.
After all, Williams started her coaching career four
years ago as an assistant with the Lady Tornadoes’
program — so she does know a lot of these ‘other’
players well.
“This is bittersweet in a lot of ways,” Williams said.
“I am happy for Southern because I coached several of
those kids a few years ago and I know what good kids
they are and how thrilled they are to be headed to districts for the first time in a long time. I hope they go
far and do well, but I just wish that it wasn’t us going
home at their expense.”
Deem, Madison Maynard and Marlee Maynard led
a balanced Southern service attack with nine points
apiece, followed by Brynn Harris and Haley Hill with
six points each. Cameryn Harmon was next with three
points, while Savannah Bailey and Hannah Hill each
added two points to the winning cause.
Jansen Wolfe led the SHS net attack with seven
kills and two blocks, followed by Harris with six kills
and Madison Maynard with five kills and two blocks.
Deem paced the defense with 15 digs and Marlee
Maynard guided the offense with 11 assists.
Hannah Barringer led the EHS service attack with
nine points, including three aces. Kelsey Johnson was
next with five points, while Morgan Baer and Katelyn
Barber each contributed two points. Sidney Cook also
scored one point for the Lady Eagles.
Barber led the visiting net attack with eight kills,
followed by Cook with four kills and Johnson with
three kills. Baer led the offense with six assists, while
Barber and Johnson paced the defense with 18 and 12
digs respectively.
Carroll wants his team to enjoy this moment, but
he also wants to make sure that they understand that
there is still a lot of work to be put in before next
week’s trip to the Apple City. Carroll thought that
the Lady Eagles were a great test headed into district
play, but he hopes that his kids are even more focused
for the top-seeded Lady Titans.
“I give Eastern a lot of credit tonight. Those girls
played like they were defending a streak and we had
to play our butts off to beat them,” Carroll said. “It
really is tough to beat a team three times in one season and they made us earn everything tonight. They’ll
be back, they’re future is bright.
“We can be happy about this for now, but we cannot
be satisfied. We have to make sure that we are prepared and ready to go for our next game Thursday.”
As for Eastern, it loses only three seniors from this
team — meaning a majority of these players should
return both wiser and stronger next fall. Williams also
expects the growing pains from this year to pay dividends next season.
“We started the year young, but the girls really grew
a lot as the season progressed,” Williams said. “They
always worked hard in practice and gave me everything they had, which is all I could really ever ask of
them.
“A majority of this group will be back, so we feel
the toughest times are behind us. I think our future is
bright.”

Morrow led the RVHS
wideouts with 140 yards
on seven catches, while
Twyman added 104
receiving yards on four
grabs. Wray also hauled
in one pass for 20 yards.
Long led the Vinton
County rushing attack
with 121 yards on 21
carries, followed by Tim

Ousley with 43 yards on
13 attempts.
Naylen Yates was 6-of14 passing for 100 yards,
which included a touchdown and zero interceptions. Max Ward led the
receivers with two catches
for 29 yards, while Shrader added one grab for 55
yards and a score.

Monster hunting shows about nothing
By Jim Freeman
In The Open

If you are any sort of outdoorsman at all, you’ve probably
daydreamed about having your
own hunting or fishing show.
Wouldn’t that be great, getting
to do what you love, and inviting the world to come along and
enjoy your hunts and fishing
trips as well?
Now imagine an outdoor
show where you didn’t actually
have to kill or catch anything,
or for that matter, even see anything, or find any sign. Wouldn’t
that be a racket? With the cost
of out-of-state licenses, you’d
save a fortune!
That’s what I think about the
assorted Bigfoot and monster
hunting shows, which are fairly
commonplace on assorted channels otherwise dedicated to “history” or “education.” You know
the ones, with the “experts”
who look like they probably still
live in their parents’ basements,
armed with jury-rigged equipment and night-vision cameras.

If some of these people actually
did chase a Bigfoot I might
recommend having 911 already
punched in with the helicopter
ambulance on standby.
“Seinfeld” was described as
a show about nothing; the real
shows about nothing are the
monster hunting shows.
A common scenario goes
like this: the crew descends on
some backwater community and
hosts a meeting in some public
location where they identify
people who have apparently
encountered the local monster
population (ironically they look
like the same people we see on
TV describing the tornado that
recently ravaged the nearby
mobile home park); armed with
this information the crew goes
out (at night of course) where
we see them stumbling through
the woods until they get enough
camera footage to complete the
episode – every twig snapping
or odd sound is considered
evidence of the creatures’ existence.

What don’t you see? A
Bigfoot or actual monster, of
course. In fact, I will be so bold
as to venture that you will never
see a Bigfoot or actual monster
captured by one of these crews.
How can I make such a statement? It’s too easy, because
there aren’t any. I say again,
there are no bigfoots.
With the proliferation of
trail cameras and the number
of highways crisscrossing our
nation, if there were monsters
out there it is a sure bet that at
least one of them would have
found itself plastered across the
front of some soccer mom’s van
by now. But how many times
has this happened? Not once.
Not. One. Single. Time. Nor
have any been captured in crystal-clear five-megapixel glory.
Every fall a literal army of
deer hunters deploys into the
woods and meadows, how many
of these people have killed a
monster or bigfoot? You got it,
not one. It’s a sure bet that an
unprotected species like sas-

quatch, were it actually present,
would have made that long, final
trip out of the woods lashed
to the back of a four-wheeler.
Guess what? It hasn’t happened.
Not ever.
When I was a young lad, my
family spent a few years living
in Louisiana in a small city near
New Orleans. Development
was already getting its foot in
the door but at that point there
was literally nothing but a solid
expanse of pine woods, bayous
and swamps (intersected by the
occasional road and highway)
inhabited by countless wild
boars, alligators and mosquitoes
from the edge of our backyard
to Honey Island Swamp along
Pearl River.
Naturally our backyard camping experiences all involved discussions about the Honey Island
Swamp Monster, with the result
being that about the half of the
time our campouts ended on
the living room floor, which was
littered with kids who had half
scared themselves out of their

wits. This was called big fun.
Sadly there are real monsters
out there, but the problem is
that they look, talk and act like
us. When you are a kid, you
don’t have to think about those
things very much, imaginary
monsters are much more fun.
Of course, a horde of these
imaginary little monsters will be
taking to the streets and sidewalks looking for candy in about
a week, so please watch out for
them.
Camping out along the edge
of the woods and swamps, with
only the campfire for illumination, and vivid imaginations
transforming every night sound
into unspeakable horrors, it can
still be fun to pretend that there
are things out there that defy
reality.
It’s also not a bad gig if you
can make a living at it.

The drive was capped off
The Big Blacks (8-0),
when Red Devils senior
who turned the ball over Rhys Jelich scampered 15
on downs in their first
yards for the touchdown,

which was followed by a

stymied the offense and
PPHS was forced to punt.
Rhys Jelich broke his
second touchdown of the
game on the third play
of the ensuing Red Devils drive. This time the
senior covered 73 yards
and, with Humphrey’s
kick, gave the hosts a
14-6 advantage over the
Big Blacks with 8:26
remaining in the first half.
PPHS senior Jon Peterson received the ensuing
kickoff and rumbled 77
yards down the Ravenswood sideline for the
touchdown. Yates completed a two-point conversion pass to Gage Buskirk
and the Big Blacks tied
the game with 8:14 to
play in the half.
The Big Black defense
forced Ravenswood to
punt on its next possession and Point Pleasant
took over on its own
28-yardline at the 5:13

mark. PPHS marked five
first downs and covered
63 yards in 16 plays
before lining up for a
27-yard field goal with
3 seconds on the clock.
Dylan Lunsford converted
from the right hashmark
and the Big Blacks went
into the locker room
ahead 17-14.
Point Pleasant recieved
the kick out of half and
set up shop at their own

the drive Yates found
Mitchell on what would
have been 47 yard touchdown, but the play was
marked back to the RHS
40 after a penalty. However, all the penalty did was
delay the inevitable as
seven plays later Mitchell
found paydirt on a three
yard run. The PAT kick
was blocked and PPHS
led 23-14 with 6:46 to

got back on track with a
16-play drive that covered
51 yards, but the hosts
came up empty after their
field goal attempt on
fourth and five was pulled
wide left.
Following a three-andout by each team the Big
Blacks took possession
at their own 24-yard line.
Yates ran right for a 61
yard rush on the first play
of the drive, setting the
guests up in the redzone.
Three straight carries by
Mitchell put PPHS in the
endzone again with 8:31
remaining in regulation.
Lunsford added the point
after and the Big Blacks
held a 30-14 advantage.
The Red Devils, which
had only gone to the air
three times in the first
three quarter, found
success in the passing
game on their next drive,
completing 4-of-6 passes.
RHS cut the deficit to 10
when Rhys Jelich found
Matt Perry for a 13 yard
touchdown with 4:16 to
play.
The onside kick
attempt was recovered
by Peterson and the Big
Blacks took over at their
own 48-yard line. Mitchell
broke a 35-yard run to
open the drive, putting
Point Pleasant in the redzone once again. Three
plays later Yates found the
endzone from 10 yards
out and, with Lunsford’s
kick, drove the final nail
in the coffin to the tune
of 37-20.
Ravenswood’s last-ditch
effort was ended when
Tanner Hill recovered a
fumble and the Big Blacks
set up in victory formation.
“I’m just so proud of
the way our kids responded in the second half,”
eighth year PPHS head
coach Dave Darst said.
“They really responded
well and our offense
started moving the ball.
We jumped back into the
pistol offense again late
and things really started
going again for us. I think
our football team is going
to be better from this and
I’m sure he (Ravenswood
head coach Mike Price) is
thinking the same thing.”
Point Pleasant went to
the ground 44 time in the
game, gaining 321 yards
— 140 yards more than
the Red Devils gained on
their 41 rushing attempts.
Point Pleasant was penal-

ized 13 times for 117
yards, while Ravenswood
was flagged four times for
33 yards.
Mitchell led PPHS on
the round with 153 yards
and two scores on 26 carries, while also receiving
four passes for 63 yards.
Yates, who was 10-of-12
passing for 121 yards,
carried the ball 15 times
for a total of 148 yards
and two scores. Buskirk
added 13 yards on two
carries and 58 yards on
six receptions, while
Cody Marcum ran one
time for seven yards.
Rhys Jelich led the Red
Devils with 145 yards
and two touchdowns on
32 rushes, while completing 4-of-9 passes for 48
yards and a touchdown.
Perry ran seven times for
26 yards and caught four
passes for 42 yards and a
score, while Ben Johnson
had 10 rushing yards
and nine receiving yards
in the setback. Thomas
Strum was 2-of-3 passing for 16 yards and also
caught a 13 yard pass in
the game.
“I’m glad our defense
got tested tonight
because we want to see
where we’re at,” Darst
said. “Everybody has to
be able to handle power
running football, the
game hasn’t changed,
and when you get in the
playoffs and you’re down
to those final eight football teams it’s going to be
physical football.”
The Big Blacks, along
with Capital, which had
to cancel its game with
Woodrow Wilson Friday and will not have a
chance to make it up, are
the lone two unbeaten
teams in Class AAA.
Ravenswood’s loss means
that Frankfort, which
toppled Petersburg 42-13
Friday night, is the lone
undefeated team in Class
AA.
Point Pleasant will host
2-5 Shady Spring, which
dropped a 36-20 game to
Wyoming East on Friday,
in the Big Blacks’ regular
season finale, Friday at
OVB Field. PPHS will
be looking for its second
consecutive unbeaten
regular season, a feat that
has never been accomplished in Big Blacks football history.

‘Not Yo Momma’
Point Pleasant woman
finishes 100-mile Ohio race
By April Jaynes

ajaynes@civitasmedia.com

POINT PLEASANT — After
33 1/2 hours of pacing, climbing and pressing on through
the trying trails and hills of
Great Seal State Park, Nicole
Burt, of Point Pleasant, accomplished something she never
thought she could do.
She finished the ‘Not Yo
Momma’ 100-mile race.
Burt was the second female
to finish the race this year and
said she was surprised when
the race coordinators initially
asked her to run the 100-mile
trail because it had a less than
50 percent finish rate — and
she wasn’t sure if she would be
able to finish it.
“Rob and his wife, Angie,
who put on the Not Yo Momma
100-miler, have become friends
of mine. I’ve ran a lot of their
previous races, including the
50k, in the past two years, on
this very course,” she said. ” I
was surprised when they asked
me to come run the 100-mile.
The race has a less than 50 percent finish rate. In 2012, only
three runners finished, and in
2013 there were eight finishers.

One of the eight was the first
and only female to finish the
race.”
Out of 28 participants this
year, 10 finished the race, Burt
said.
The 100-mile trail consisted
of six laps total, featuring
numerous obstacles and climbs,
including the straight-up climb
of Sugarloaf Mountain — the
climb of all climbs.
Burt said climbing up Sugarloaf Mountain during her last
loop was surprisingly easier
than she expected.
“I marched up it pretty well
and was happy to think it was
the last time I had to see it that
day,” she said. “Every time I
made it past a climb I knew I
would not have to see it again.
I just started picking off different milestones along the way.”
Burt, a mother of four, also
said she still considers herself a
new runner, despite her recent
and past accomplishments, and
that running is something that
helped her regain her identity.
“I started running at the age
of 31 and am now closing in on
35. I have asthma and always
felt this was holding me back
from running,” she said. “Then

female to finish the race.

a time came when I realized
I needed something for me.
Don’t get me wrong, I love
being a mother — but that was
all I was. I had lost my identity
somewhere in the mounds of
diapers, toys and midnight
feedings.”
Ultimately, Burt said running
provides a sense of balance to
her life.
“Running is an addiction of
sorts to deal with such a chaotic life. It gives me balance
and makes me a better wife and
mother. It calms me,” she said.
In addition to family and
friends cheering her on — and

her husband playing motivational 1980s music for her
— Burt said the fact that she
had been asked to run the 100mile trail helped motivate her
throughout the race.
“I took it as a huge compliment, and it fueled my fire
during training and the race,”
she said.
Actually finishing the race
almost didn’t feel real to her,
Burt said.
“Pictures do show I was
happy and smiling like a fool,
but inside it felt unreal,” she
said. “I felt I did not know what
to say.”

Burt received multiple
awards for finishing, including
a medal, a belt buckle, a trophy
for being the second female, a
trophy for finishing last and a
beer mug.
Despite the swollen feet and
blisters she had to deal with for
days afterward, Burt said she
would absolutely do it again.
“So what does a person do
who just ran 100 miles and is
laid up on the couch? We look
for a new 100-mile adventure to
run, of course,” she said.

‘Mothtoberfest’
on Halloween
By Beth Sergent

bsergent@civitasmedia.com

POINT PLEASANT — Celebrating Halloween in
Point Pleasant just took on a new twist called “Mothtoberfest.”
This is the first year for “Mothtoberfest,” which will
combine the Mothman, tourism and Point Pleasant’s
“haunted history” starting Oct. 31.
“Mothtoberfest” will include a Halloween weekend
excursion into the TNT area with a Mothman bus
tour, Mothman Museum passes, special Halloween rate
packages and events at the Lowe Hotel and “Haunted
History” walking tours of downtown Point Pleasant
provided by the Coffee Grinder.
First, the Moth-Fan Excursion and All-Access Weekend Pass includes the TNT/Mothman bus tour at 1 p.m.
Nov. 1 with author and Mothman Museum curator Jeff
Wamsley, as well as an all-weekend pass to the Mothman
Museum, a free Mothman Search Team bumper sticker
and pictures with the “life like” Mothman costume.
At the Lowe Hotel, “Mothtoberfest” will include
special Halloween packages with room rates based on
occupancy, haunted hotel tours of the historic hotel, and
a meet-and-greet reception Oct. 31 with refreshments.
Then, over at the Coffee Grinder, “Haunted History”
walking tours of downtown Point Pleasant start at 8
p.m. Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 with only a tour guide and
flashlight to lead the way.
This was a record year for the Mothman Festival,
which saw thousands of people descend on Point Pleasant to celebrate not only that famous winged resident,
but other tourist attractions in Mason County. The
influx of people provided an economic boon to the town
and surrounding area.
For information and pricing on the Moth-Fan Excursion and/or “Haunted History” walking tours, call the
museum from noon to 5 p.m. at 304-812-5211 or visit
mothmanmuseum.com to book event tickets; call the
Lowe Hotel for bookings at 304-675-2260.

GALLIPOLIS — “I’ll
take it until you find
someone.”
That’s a polite response
when asked to help out in
a pinch. No one probably
expected anything different when she was asked
to step in as a temporary
organist at Grace United
Methodist Church.
As Edie Ross found
out, being polite can lead
to bigger things.
It was almost 60 years
ago the organist at Grace
United Methodist Church
left town abruptly, taking
his music with him. The
church turned to Ross
and asked for help. She
agreed to step in — temporarily.
On Sunday, Oct. 26,
the church will recognize
Ross for her “temporary”
job as part of Grace United Methodist’s annual
Homecoming celebration.
In many ways, asking
Ross to step in was a
logical move. After all,
she was a music educator, having taught in area
schools and neighboring
Rio Grande College. Her
husband, Merlyn, was
also a music educator and
served as choir director
for the church.
The couple had settled
in the area after Merlyn’s time in the service
was up. They met as
students in college, and
even thought Edie was
engaged to another guy,
Merlyn spotted Edie on
the campus of Ohio University and told a friend,
“I’m going to marry that
girl.”
They married just
before Merlyn went into
the service. He spent two
years in Hawaii as part
of his military tour and
Edie joined him for one
of those years. The couple’s time there inspired
the name for their first
daughter, Lani, born in
1957. Another daughter,
Steffi, and son, Allen,

Edie Ross, celebrating 60 years as the temporary organist at Grace United Methodist Church, will be
honored during the church’s Homecoming Celebration on Sunday, Oct 26. She is shown here at the
piano, which she admits is her favorite instrument, during weekly choir practice at the church.

completed the family.
It’s not surprising that
all the Ross children have
musical talent of their
own, including voice as
well as instrumental.
Tragedy struck in 1976
when Lani was killed in
an accident. Ten years
later, Merlyn also passed
away.
At both services, family friend Susan Beaman
sang and was accompanied by Edie.
“It was a two-and-onehalf hour celebration of
their lives,” recalled Beaman. Herself a retired
music educator, Beaman
said, “It was Mr. and Mrs.
Ross who inspired me to
go into music in the first
place.”
Beaman was one of
Ross’ numerous private
piano students. Ross
would not even venture
a guess as to how many
private students she has
tutored over the years.
Beaman describes her
former teacher as, “… a
woman of faith,” and “I
remember she could pick
up a piece of music and
sight read it through with
ease. She is one of those
special people that God
has placed on this earth

that can see the good in
things when other might
not.”
One might think that
with all the time spent
playing before congregations and gatherings

every Sunday or service
might be old hat. Not so.
“It (playing at church)
still makes me nervous,
even now. I do like it

NEW YORK (AP) — No holiday screams pop culture controversy quite like Halloween.
So what’s the costume flap of
the year? It might just be Ebola,
as in Ebola zombies, bloody Ebola
patients and faux protective gear.
Twitter and other social media
were abuzz leading into the holiday with talk of hazmat suits and
respirators. Too soon? How about
just no, said Philadelphia physician’s assistant Maria McKenna.
One of her own, a Dallas nurse
who at 26 is exactly her age, was
diagnosed with the virus in the
United States after she had helped
care for a Liberian man who died
at her hospital.
The idea of riffing on the crisis
for Halloween “definitely rubs me
the wrong way,” said McKenna,
who works with post-surgical
patients at a hospital.
“Normally I think that irony
and humor is funny, but this thing
with the costumes, is it really that
funny? I mean, Ebola’s not even
under control yet,” she said Monday by telephone.
Like it or not, some costume
sellers have leftover yellow jumpsuits, rubber gloves and masks
from the “Breaking Bad” craze
last Halloween. Some sellers predict Halloweeners will repurpose
those for takes on Ebola or make
their own getups.
Halloween, falling on a Friday,
is sure to be a big season for
many costume sellers, including
Ricky’s NYC.
Some revelers are notoriously
last-minute on costumes, so it
was a bit too early to tell whether
all the talk about dressing up as

Ebola something
or other will actually take off. Talk,
after all, especially
on social media, is
cheap.
“I wouldn’t
say we can see
an uptick in
sales. I’d say
it’s still chugging along
because it’s
a good seller
no matter
what,” said
Ricky’s president Richard Parrott
of the ‘Breaking
Bad’ look. “But
people are
definitely asking
about an Ebolatype costume.”
Ricky’s had
gone so far this
season as to
internally kick
around the
idea of selling
some type of Ebola costume
and donating a portion of proceeds to finding a cure, Parrott
said. Ultimately, “we felt like it
probably crosses a line that we
don’t want to cross.”
If searches on Google are
any indication, the Ebola crisis
doesn’t match the Top 10 popularity of Elsa from “Frozen,” or
even your basic Wonder Woman,
among searches for DIY costumes.
Regardless, the costume site
BrandsOnSale went there. It’s

selling an “Ebola Containment
Suit Costume” for $79.99,
complete with white suit
emblazoned with “Ebola,”
face shield, breathing mask,
safety goggles and blue
latex gloves.
“You are sure to
be prepared if any
outbreak happens
at your Halloween
party. This will literally be the most
‘viral’ costume of
the year,” declares
the online product
description.
The company’s
chief executive,
Johnathon Weeks, said
he sold about a dozen of
the costumes in the first
week after its Oct. 8 launch.
That’s barely a ripple in the
more than one million costumes he stocks, but it was
shared on social media 7,000
times Monday — the most
shared item on his site.
Word of the costume was
greeted by some blowback
from outraged members of
the public, he said.
“We don’t stray away from anything that’s current or controversial or anything like that,” Weeks
said from his 127,000-square-foot
warehouse in Banning, Calif. “If
I told you we had a toddler ISIS
costume in the works, your mouth
would drop.”
Does he?
“I will definitely let you know
when that goes on sale,” Weeks
said. “I can tell you it will come
complete with a fake machine gun.”
