Hively charged with murder, aggravated murder
Preliminary hearing set for April 15
in case against shooting suspect

GALLIPOLIS — A Gallia
County man has been charged
with murder and aggravated murder following the shooting death
of a 18-year-old student last week.
Bruce A. Hively, 56, Crown
City, made an initial appearance
in the Gallipolis Municipal Court
on Monday morning for an arraignment hearing.
Hively is accused of fatally

shooting Charles T. Addis, 18,
at approximately 6:12 p.m. last
Thursday evening.
The shooting reportedly occurred at the intersection of Hannan Trace Road and Elliott Road
in Harrison Township in the vicinity of Dickey Chapel Church.
Two criminal complaints filed
with the municipal court on Friday afternoon and signed by Gallia County Sheriff Joe Browning
outline the charges of murder and
aggravated murder.

The factual statements attached to the complaints explain
a scene whereby Hively, who reportedly had an ongoing dispute
with the victim, drove past Addis,
as well as Anthony Knepper and
Aaron Addis at the intersection of
Elliott and Hannan Trace Roads,
and then turned around and came
back to where they were.
Hively reportedly exited his
vehicle where a confrontation ensued between himself and the victim, Knepper and Aaron Addis.
This confrontation reportedly
lead to Hively shooting and killing Charles Addis, and, according
to the complaint, Hively “shot
Charles Addis twice while he was
standing and twice while he lay
on the ground.”

Shortly thereafter, deputies
with the Gallia County Sheriff’s
Office arrived on scene and Hively was taken into custoy wihtout
incident.
Agents with the Ohio Bureau of
Criminal Identification and Investigation (BCI) were later called to
the scene to aid in the investigation of the shooting.
The victim, who was reportedly a student at Buckeye Hills Career Center, had a listed address
on Hannan Trace Road.
Court documents list Hively’s
address as 510 Elliott Road, however, according to Browning,
while the suspect does own property on Elliott Road, he had been
residing in Point Pleasant, W.Va,
prior to his arrest.

Hively also, reportedly, had an
Ohio Concealed Carry Permit.
During Monday’s hearing before Municipal Court Judge Margaret Evans, Hively was charged
with murder and aggravated murder. His bond has been set at $1
million, 10 percent. A preliminary
hearing has been set for 9 a.m. on
April 15 in the municipal courtroom.
Following the preliminary hearing, it is expected that this case
will be bound over to the Gallia
County Common Pleas Court
where it will be heard by a grand
jury.
Hively is currently being held
in the Gallia County Jail. He has
retained defense attorney Charles
Knight as counsel.

$1,000 for the Chester-Shade Historical Association.
At the request of Robert Byer, $3,500 was added to his
salary per the Disaster Services line item. The money
comes in marked for this purpose.
An appropriation adjustment was approved in the
amount of $8,295.48 for Economic Development.
A viewing of a right-of-way known as Clark Street in
Lebanon Township was set for 9:30 a.m. on April 18 at the
road site, with a hearing to be held at 11:15 a.m. during the
regular meeting of the Meigs County Commissioners.
Bills were approved in the amount of $108,146.34, with
$47,083.09 from county general.

Reed, who was at the residence.
Deputies Josh Ridenour and
Brody Davis responded to the

he was coming out with Reed.
Reed was placed into custody by
the waiting deputies.
Reed was charged with inducing panic, a first degree misde-

meanor, and transported to the
Washington County Jail.
Sheriff Wood expressed his
gratitude to all the officers and
departments for responding to a
difficult situation.
“Being a small agency, we are
sometimes dependent on our
sister agencies for assistance,”
said Wood. “I cannot thank them
enough for all that they do for
us and with us. Again, another
call has ended without injury or
death to anyone, for that I am
deeply thankful.”

Chester Bowhunters announce Winter Indoor Series winners

CHESTER — Chester
Bowhunters recently announced the winners of
its Winter Indoor Series
which was held Wednesday
nights throughout the winter at the club on Pomeroy
Pike.
Winners were, by class:
John Sisson, Pomeroy, traditional bowhunter; Bailey
Sisson, Pomeroy, youth
bowhunter; Jamie Smith,
Racine, female bowhunter,
and Brian Teaford, Chester, male bowhunter.
Archers were placed in
their classes using either
traditional or “field ready”
compound bows, shooting
at targets which included
3D targets ranging from a
long-nosed gar to a standing black bear, paper targets ranging from a crow to
a caribou, and even a “steel
buck,” which club Presi-

dent Jon Smith described
as a life-size whitetail buck
cut from quarter-inch steel
plate which helps bowhunters deal with stressful
shots.
“To those who have never experienced buck fever
it may sound impractical,”
he said, “but to those familiar, it is a great training
aid.
“Not many things can
prepare you for the shot
of a lifetime, except maybe
standing in front of 20 or
30 of your peers trying to
shoot a $10 arrow through
a 3-inch hole in the vitals
of a carbon steel ‘buck of a
lifetime’.”
Smith said the club promotes ethical bowhunting
which also includes precise
shot placement.
“We also employ moving

practice is not to promote
shooting at moving game,
but to show the archer just
how far off one step can
make that perfect shot.

either a tournament archer
or gaining an edge on your
shooting skills for that trophy you’ve been dreaming
of please come join us. All

W.Va. House: No charging for HIV tests
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) —
Shrinking federal funding and the
Affordable Care Act are forcing West
Virginia to reconsider how it pays
for HIV testing, but local health departments will not be able to charge
people or their insurers for those services.
A bill that would have allowed
health departments to begin charging for tests for HIV and other
sexually transmitted diseases was
overwhelmingly voted down by the
House Health Committee on Monday. The Senate unanimously passed
the bill 10 days ago.
The Affordable Care Act’s Medicaid expansion and insurance subsidies will mean more people will have
health insurance that pays for programs like HIV testing. It also means
less money for programs for people
who remain uninsured.
In the last two years, West Virginia
has lost more than $600,000 of federal money for HIV-AIDS programs.
Some of those cuts were planned,
as the Centers for Disease Control
shifts grant money to states with
higher HIV rates. Other cuts are the
result of decreased federal spending.
And funding is expected to decline
more as a result of the automatic
budget cuts that took place March 1.
None of the cuts is a result of the
Affordable Care Act, but Dr. Marian Swinker, the commissioner of
the West Virginia Bureau for Public

Health, said that the law is already
changing how the state health department does business.
“They have put us on notice that
when people have more insurance
they’ll be sending less money,”
Swinker said. “We see that coming.”
Essentially the federal government will be spending more money
to get people health insurance and
less money on programs for the uninsured.
“The reason those grants were
there was for the uninsured,” said
Health Committee Chairman Don
Perdue. “As more people get insured
we’re not going to need them.”
Most insurance plans cover the
cost of HIV and STD testing with
no co-pay. For people without insurance, local health departments would
charge on a sliding scale or waive the
fee so that no one would be turned
away.
Swinker said that local health departments have already successfully
instituted a similar program for immunizations and vaccinations.
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin is one of
only two Democratic governors who
have yet to commit to expanding
Medicaid under provisions of the
care act.
Del. Meshea Poore said that it
was premature to assume that more
people would have insurance without first knowing whether the state
would expand Medicaid.

“We’re still determining how we’re
going to approach ACA, so for the
local health departments to come today and say ACA is now happening
and more people are being insured,
so this seems to me very premature,”
Poore said.
Tomblin’s office declined immediate comment.
Other delegates were concerned
that people would not get tested
after reading headlines saying that
health departments would charge
even though free testing would still
be available.
“If I hear that my local health department may not give this test,
I’m going to be prone not to go because I can’t pay it,” Del. Clif Moore
said. Moore urged the Department
of Health and Human Resources to
dig within its finances to find money
to fund the testing. Like most state
agencies, DHHR will have its budget
cut by 7.5 percent in the next fiscal
year. The House also just passed a
bill that would allow the salary of the
next DHHR Secretary to rise by up
to $80,000.
Del. Barbara Fleischauer, one of
the bill’s few supporters in the House
committee, said that allowing health
departments to charge for testing
was a small way to help them recoup
lost federal money and stay open.
Sen. Ron Stollings, a doctor and
the bill’s sponsor in the Senate, was
disappointed.

Even in pro-gun states, Fracking coalition upsets
both greens and drillers
bid to arm teachers stalls
Kevin Begos

David A. Lieb

The Associated Press

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.
— When a gunman killed
26 children and staff at a
Connecticut grade school,
Missouri state Rep. Mike
Kelley quickly proposed
legislation that would allow trained teachers to
carry hidden guns into the
classroom as a “line of defense” against attackers.
Similar bills soon proliferated in Republicanled states as the National
Rifle Association called
for armed officers in every
American school.
Yet less than four
months later, the quest to
put guns in schools has
stalled in many traditionally gun-friendly states after
encountering opposition
from educators, reluctance
from some governors and
ambivalence from legislative leaders more focused
on economic initiatives.
The loss of momentum
highlights how difficult
it can be to advance any
gun legislation, whether to
adopt greater restrictions
or expand the rights to
carry weapons.
Since the Dec. 14
shooting at Sandy Hook
Elementary School in
Newtown, Conn., legislators in at least four states
— Connecticut, Colorado,
Maryland and New York
— have passed significant
gun-control measures. The
Newtown attack came less
than five months after a
gunman killed 12 people
and injured 70 at a Colorado movie theater.
So far, South Dakota is
the only state to respond
with a new law allowing
school personnel to carry
guns into elementary and
high schools. Similar legislation is awaiting the
governor’s signature in
Kansas. And Arkansas
has enacted a new law allowing colleges to let staff
with concealed gun permits bring their weapons
on campus.
But Kelley has shelved

The Associated Press

legislation that would have
let Missouri school staff
carry firearms if they have
concealed gun permits. His
legislation never received a
public hearing even though
he is a House majority
whip responsible for rallying Republican support for
bills.
Kelley, an NRA member,
tried to cast the bill’s demise in a positive light.
“It’s done the No. 1 thing
that I wanted, and that’s to
bring awareness to schools
about some of their safety
issues,” he said.
House Speaker Tim
Jones vowed this past week
that Missouri’s Republican
supermajorities would still
pass some sort of pro-gun
measure this year. But it’s
unlikely to involve arming
teachers.
In Oklahoma, where profirearms measures usually
get a warm reception from
lawmakers,
gun-rights
advocates faced an uphill
battle against educators
opposed to any effort to
allow guns in schools. A
bill letting schools develop
policies for arming trained
employees died in the Senate Education Committee.
“As a rule, it’s very difficult to find educators
and administrators that
support the idea of putting arms in the schools,
for whatever reason,” said
Rep. Steve Martin, chairman of the Oklahoma
House Public Safety Committee.
After opposition from
education groups, the
North Dakota Senate defeated a bill last month
that would have let people
with permits bring their
weapons into schools. And
the New Hampshire House
rejected legislation that
would have let local school
districts seek voter approval for their personnel
to carry guns.
“The chances an armed
teacher will hit a child are
high,” Dean Michener, of
the New Hampshire School
Boards Association, told
lawmakers earlier this year.

When NRA Executive
Vice President Wayne
LaPierre called for armed
school officers, he warned
that gun-free schools “tell
every insane killer in
America that schools are
their safest place to inflict
maximum mayhem with
minimum risk.” His message carried extra heft,
because many lawmakers
in the more than two dozen Republican-controlled
states are NRA members.
The NRA did not respond
to request for comment
about the state response to
its proposal.
In some states, Republican governors have put
the damper on legislative
efforts to place guns in
schools.
Just days after the Newtown shooting, Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder
vetoed legislation letting
concealed weapon permit holders — including
teachers — carry guns
in schools, because there
was no provision for local
school districts to opt out.
Indiana Gov. Mike Pence
raised concerns this past
week about a bill requiring
an armed “school protection officer” onsite during
school hours.
“Decisions that are nearest and dearest to our
hearts ought to be made by
parents and local school officials,” Pence told reporters.
Some states such Texas
and Utah already allow
teachers and administrators to bring guns to
school, though the practice is not common. Just
three Texas school boards
have granted permission
for concealed guns, said
state Sen. Dan Patrick, a
Houston Republican who
is sponsoring legislation
to train armed teachers for
classroom gunfights.
In Minnesota, where the
gun debate is on hold at the
Capitol, the small town of
Jordan recently decided to
place satellite police offices
in its public schools. The
intent was that the mere
presence of police would
deter any would-be attackers.

PITTSBURGH — Like a marriage the
in-laws don’t approve of, a new plan to
strengthen standards for fracking is creating unusual divisions among environmentalists and supporters of the oil and gas
industry.
At first glance, it’s hard to fathom all the
angst over the Pittsburgh-based Center
for Sustainable Shale Development. Environmental groups, foundations, and major oil and gas companies came together
to support stringent measures to protect
air and water from pollution in the Appalachian region, and they invited other
groups to join in and help limit pollution
from fracking.
Not everyone was flattered by the invitation.
“WHOOO-HOOO, Frackers and Environmentalists collaborate!” noted the
anti-drilling website No Fracking Way, in
a post titled “Fracking Center and Fluffy
Kittens.”
The Sierra Club called the new plan
“akin to slapping a Band-Aid on a gaping wound,” and a coalition of grass-roots
groups called No Frack Ohio claimed that
the plan “simply puts green lipstick on a
pig.”
The fight is so toxic in part because
fracking has become a symbol for the even
bigger debate over climate change. Both
sides see a historic crossroads, like an
energy version of D-Day or Waterloo, in
which the winner will determine energy
and climate policy for decades to come.
One side envisions an immediate, all-out
embrace of renewable energy and a virtual
boycott of all fossil fuels. The other says
that whether we like it or not, the transition to renewables will take decades, and
in the meantime, we need to use technology and new partnerships to make fracking as safe and clean as possible.
The pro-drilling Marcellus Drilling
News website wrote that if energy companies such as Shell and Chevron “want
to craft an organization that compromises
(too far) with eco-nuts, go right ahead and
disadvantage yourselves. But don’t require
everyone else to follow your lead.”
Some drilling companies politely said
they aren’t joining the new coalition, either.
“No,” Range Resources spokesman Matt
Pitzarella wrote in an email to The Associated Press, though he added they “commend the groups for coming together.”
In Pennsylvania, which has more new
shale gas wells than other states in the
region, four of the top ten drillers have
signed on with the center — meaning six
haven’t.
One expert suggested that the idea of
peace between environmentalists and
energy companies threatens extremists

Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging
the freedom of speech, or of the
press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the Government for a
redress of grievances.

on both sides of the fracking debate.
“As moderates in the gas industry and
in the environmental community work together more in coming years to improve
drilling practices, I think you will see the
extremes in both camps become increasingly marginal and isolated, and I think
that’s a good thing,” environmentalist
Michael Shellenberger wrote in an email.
Shellenberger isn’t a part of the shale partnership, but he supports the idea.
Other commentators see promise in opposing sides working together, too.
The Washington Post editorial board
called the new plan “a heartening breakthrough in the war over fracking” whose
new rules are “a large step toward striking
the right balance, and everyone involved
deserves credit.”
During fracking, large volumes of water,
along with sand and hazardous chemicals,
are injected into the ground to break rock
apart and free the oil and gas. In some
places, the practice has been blamed for
air pollution and gas leaks that have ruined well water, but the Obama administration and many state regulators say the
practice is safe when done properly.
The Pittsburgh-based Heinz Endowments is providing some of the funding for
the Center for Sustainable Shale Development, and it has also provided significant
funding to groups and researchers that are
critical of fracking.
Foundation President Robert Vagt
wrote in an email that isolating extreme
voices may be “a secondary consequence”
of the new plan, but that’s not the focus.
“Our sole motivation at The Heinz Endowments — one I believe is shared by
all CSSD partners — is to engage directly
the challenges of developing” shale oil and
gas, “which are being argued primarily in
sound bites for the media rather than in
constructive dialogue.”
“The consistent approach of CSSD has
been to use the best science and available
technology to develop standards that protect the environment,” Vagt said.
In addition to Shell, Chevron and the
Heinz Endowments, the participants in the
new center include the Environmental Defense Fund, the Clean Air Task Force, CONSOL Energy, PennFuture and other groups.
The center aims to work much like Underwriters Laboratories, which puts its
familiar UL seal of approval on electrical
appliances that meet its standards.
Drilling companies will be encouraged
to submit to an independent review of
their operations. If they are found to be
abiding by a list of 15 stringent measures,
they will receive the center’s blessing. The
new group says that it will be transparent and release the names of those who
apply for the certification, starting later
this year, and that the program is meant to
compliment state and federal regulations,
not replace them.

Cincinnati casino
draws $21 million
in its first month
CINCINNATI (AP) — Ohio’s newest casino raked
in $21 million during its first month of operation as
the state’s three other casinos saw double-digit percent
increases in their revenues, according to a report released Monday by the Ohio Casino Control Commission.
The report is the first for Horseshoe Casino Cincinnati, a $400 million facility in the city’s downtown that
opened March 4.
Even though Cincinnati’s figure represents just under a full month of operation, it had the second highest March revenues in the state after Cleveland, which
drew $24.5 million.
The state’s three other casinos in Toledo, Cleveland
and Columbus each topped $20 million in their first full
months. Cleveland’s saw the largest at $26.1 million in
June.
The new revenue report also shows that the casinos
in Toledo, Cleveland and Columbus each saw revenue
gains from their February numbers.
Toledo’s casino saw the biggest percent increase,
from $14.8 million in February to $17.8 million in
March. That’s a 20 percent increase.
Columbus’ casino saw a 13 percent gain, from $18.5
million in February to $20.9 million in March. And
Cleveland’s revenues jumped by 11 percent, from $22
million in February to $24.5 million in March.
Statewide, casino revenues increased from $55.5 million in February to $84.3 million in March, partially because of the addition of Cincinnati into the mix. Taking
Cincinnati out would mean revenues of $63.3 million, a
14 percent increase.
All four of the state’s casinos, approved by voters in
2009, opened within 10 months of each other this year
and last, beginning with Toledo and Cleveland in May.
Columbus’ opened in October.
Combined, they have brought in more than $543.6
million. A third of that, or $179.4 million, has gone to
Ohio’s schools, counties and cities.
While the numbers sound big, profits have fallen
short of predictions made by supporters during a statewide legalization campaign that touted the immediate
boost the casinos would give to Ohio’s economy.
Supporters had predicted the four casinos could earn
just under $2 billion a year once they were all up and
running. That would have generated about $643 million in taxes for schools, counties and cities.

Thatcher, even in death, divides world opinion
(AP) — Combative and determined to get her way, Margaret
Thatcher divided opinion down
the middle in life — and in death.
Many leaders lauded Thatcher
for her steely determination to
modernize Britain’s industrial
landscape, even at the cost of
strikes and riots, and to stand beside the United States as the west
triumphed in the Cold War versus
the Soviet Union. Others saw a
pitiless tyrant who preferred conflict to compromise.
British Prime Minister David
Cameron lauded his 1980s predecessor as “a great Briton,” but
others — particularly Europe’s
socialists who often clashed with
her — were less enamored in
their reactions to the death Monday of the conservative icon.
Flags at Buckingham Palace,
Parliament and across the United
Kingdom were lowered to halfstaff. Buckingham Palace said
Queen Elizabeth II would send a
private message of sympathy to
the Thatcher family. Government
officials began preparations for
a London funeral with military
honors at St. Paul’s Cathedral
next week, followed by a private
cremation.
“As our first woman prime minister, Margaret Thatcher succeeded against all the odds,” Cameron
said in Madrid. He cut short his
trip to Spain and canceled a visit
to France to return to London for
the funeral preparations.
“The real thing about Margaret
Thatcher is that she didn’t just
lead our country. She saved our
country,” Cameron said, “and
I believe she’ll go down as the
greatest British peacetime prime
minister.”
In Washington, President
Barack Obama said many Ameri-

cans “will never forget her standing shoulder to shoulder with
President (Ronald) Reagan, reminding the world that we are
not simply carried along by the
currents of history. We can shape
them with moral conviction, unyielding courage and iron will.”
And former first lady Nancy
Reagan said her husband and
Thatcher “enjoyed a very special
relationship” driven by a common
hatred of Communism. “Ronnie
and Margaret were political soul
mates,” she said in a statement
that lauded Thatcher’s “clear vision and strong determination to
stand up for her beliefs at a time
when so many were afraid to rock
the boat.”
In Poland, Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said his country
should erect a statue of the British leader. In a tweet he praised
Thatcher as “a fearless champion
of liberty, stood up for captive nations, helped free world win the
Cold War.”
Former Prime Minister Tony
Blair, who ousted the Conservative Party from power seven years
after Thatcher’s resignation, conceded that Thatcher had been
right to challenge labor union
power — the traditional bedrock
for Blair’s own Labour Party.
“Very few leaders get to change
not only the political landscape
of their country but of the world.
Margaret was such a leader. Her
global impact was vast,” said
Blair, who credited Thatcher with
being “immensely supportive”
despite their opposing views on
many issues.
“You could not disrespect her
character or her contribution to
Britain’s national life,” Blair said.
Not all Britons agreed. Several hundred people gathered in

Glasgow and in London’s Brixton neighborhood for impromptu
celebrations, complete with party
hats and streamers.
The National Union of Miners
— which tussled with Thatcher in
a long 1984-85 strike, and lost —
expressed condolences to Thatcher’s family, but said: “The damage
caused by her fatally flawed politics sadly lingers on. Good Riddance.”
A cooler breeze also blew
from across the English Channel, where many of the men who
ran European governments in the
1980s expressed admiration for
Thatcher’s toughness mixed with
femininity — but not her European Union-bashing politics.
European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso of Portugal called Thatcher “a circumspect yet engaged player in the
European Union.”
Former French President Valerie Giscard d’Estaing called her
“a woman unique in history” with
“an unwavering strength.”
D’Estaing recalled her impressive entrance to one meeting of
EU premiers in France, where all
the men were in black tie. “She
went out of her car and she wore
a long dress, a gown for a sort of
ball, and everybody was sort of
surprised and impressed. All the
other members were flattered to
speak with her,” he recalled.
Harsh criticism came from
Northern Ireland and Argentina,
where Thatcher’s reputation for
unbending determination received early tests — when breaking an Irish Republican Army
prison hunger strike in 1981 that
left 10 inmates dead, then leading
Britain into a 1982 war to reclaim
the Falkland Islands from Argentine invaders.

Marietta snaps Tornadoes’ streak at 31
Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

MARIETTA, Ohio — All good
things must come to an end.
The Southern baseball team extended its regular season winning
streak to 31 straight games before
dropping the night cap of a doubleheader Saturday, as the Tornadoes
defeated Vinton County 12-2 in
the opener before losing a 9-2 decision to host Marietta.
The Tornadoes (6-1) wasted

little time in the opening contest,
as the hosts jumped out to a 5-0
lead after an inning of play against
the Vikings. SHS led 8-1 through
two innings and were ahead 9-2 after three complete, then tacked on
two runs in the fifth and another
in the sixth to wrap up the mercyrule triumph.
Southern outhit VCHS by a sizable 9-2 overall margin and committed two errors in the contest,
compared to three miscues by the
guests. Colten Walters was the

winning pitcher of record for SHS,
allowing two runs and one hits
through three innings of work.
Trenton Deem led the Tornadoes with two hits, followed by
Walters, Hunter Johnson, Danny
Ramthun, Brandon Moodispaugh,
Casey Pickens, Zac Beegle and
Trenton Cook with a safety apiece.
Deem and Cook each drove in two
RBIs in the victory, while Johnson,
Deem, Ramthun and Cook each
scored twice for SHS.
Things started well for South-

ern in Game 2, as the guests plated
a pair of first inning runs for a 2-1
lead after one complete.
Marietta, however, grabbed
control of the game in the bottom of the third, scoring four
runs to secure a 5-2 edge. MHS
tacked on two runs apiece in the
fifth and sixth frames, wrapping
up the scoring at its seven-run
outcome.
The Tigers outhit SHS by a 10-5
overall margin and committed just
one error in the contest, compared

to three miscues by the guests.
Chandler Drummer took the losing decision for SHS, the first for
the Purple and Gold in the regular
season since May 7, 2011 — a 7-4
setback to Meigs.
Trenton Deem led the guests
with two hits and an RBI, followed
by Drummer, Hunter Johnson and
Trenton Cook with a hit apiece.
Johnson and Deem each scored
once, and Colten Walters also
drove in an RBI with a first inning
sacrifice fly.

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — Simple superiority.
Not only did the Meigs softball team take two games
from visiting Federal Hocking Saturday, but the Lady Marauders won both via mercy rule and in shutout fashion.
The Lady Marauders (5-2) tallied two runs in the first
inning of the opening game, and added two more runs in
the second. MHS marked one run in the third inning and
two runs in the fourth on the Tess Phelps homerun. Meigs

two each. Patterson, Casci and Sadi Fox each scored once.
In the second game Meigs scored once in the opening
inning and nine times in the second inning. The Lady Marauders added three runs in the third and one in the fourth

Lady Knights go 1-2 at Chapmanville tourney
Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

CHAPMANVILLE, W.Va. — It
was a bit of a tough-luck weekend
for the Point Pleasant softball
team after going 1-2 overall at
the Chapmanville softball tournament Friday and Saturday in Logan County.
The Lady Knights (6-5) suffered losses of 4-3 and 5-3 in their
opening two contests against
Herbert Hoover and James Monroe, but ultimately closed the
weekend on a good note with a
7-6 decision over Nicholas County — allowing PPHS to snap a
three-game losing skid in the
porcess.
Point trailed 2-0 in the opener
against HHHS, but a three-run
homer by Kaci Riffle in the top
of the fourth gave the guests their
only lead of the game at 3-2. The
Lady Huskies countered with

RBI singles in the fourth and fifth
frames to wrap up the one-run
decision.
The Lady Knights were outhit
9-4 in the opener and PPHS committed the only three errors of the
game. Karissa Cochran was the
losing pitcher of record for Point,
which received hits from Riffle,
Cochran and a pair from Makinley Higginbotham.
Point Pleasant trailed 4-0 after
a half-inning of play, but rallied
with a run in the second and two
more in the third to close to within 4-3 through three complete.
The hosts were never closer the
rest of the way, and Jame Monroe
tacked on an insurance run in the
top of the seventh to wrap up the
two-run decision.
The Lady Knights were outhit
by a small 7-6 overall margin and
committed two of the three errors
in the contest. Kaci Riffle was
the losing pitcher of record for

PPHS, which was led by Kaitlin
Liptrap with two hits. Higginbotham, Riffle, Cochran and Megan
Davis also added a safety apiece
in the setback. Cochran also had
a team-best two RBIs.
Point Pleasant stormed out to a
7-0 lead through three innings in
its finale against Nicholas County, but five errors almost allowed
the Lady Grizzlies to rally back.
PPHS outhit the hosts by a 10-6
overall margin, but a 7-3 edge
headed into the bottom of the
seventh was trimmed down to a
run before Madison Barker came
in to close things out and pick up
a save.
Cochran was the winning pitcher of record for the Lady Knights,
who were led by Bekah Darst
with three hits. Higginbotham,
Davis and Cochran each added
two safeties for the victors, while
Riffle and Kristen Riegel added a
hit apiece for the guests.

Raiders drop heartbreakers at Oak Hill
Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

OAK HILL, Ohio — Close, but no
proverbial cigar.
The River Valley baseball team
remained winless this season following a pair of one-run setbacks
to host Oak Hill Saturday in a nonconference doubleheader in Jackson
County.
The visiting Raiders (0-7) dropped
a 3-2 decision to the Oaks in the
opener, then suffered a 6-5 setback in
the night cap to wrap up the disappointing twin-bill. RVHS was outhit
by a combined 14-12 overall margin,
with both teams mustering eight hits
apiece in the finale.
The opening contest went nine innings, and River Valley twice let one-

run leads get away. The Raiders —
who led 1-0 after a half-inning of play
— watched a 2-1 edge get knotted up
in the bottom of the sixth after a pair
of OHHS singles made it a two-all
contest after six complete.
The score remained that way until
the bottom of the ninth, when Gilliland delivered a two-out RBI single
with the bases loaded — allowing
Cox to come plateward with the
game-clinching run.
Dan Goodrich took the losing decision after allowing one run, two
hits and two walks over 2.2 innings
of relief while fanning one. Cody Lee
had two hits to pace RVHS, followed
by Goodrich and Tyler Cline with a
safety apiece. Trey Farley also drove
in one RBI in the setback.

Both teams agreed to play five
innings in the night cap, and Oak
Hill jumped out to an early 2-0 lead
through three innings of play. RVHS
responded with two runs in the fourth
to knot things up, but the hosts countered with a run in the bottom half of
the frame for a 3-2 edge.
The Raiders retaliated with three
runs in the top of the fifth for a 5-3
lead, but Hall hit a walk-off three-run
homer in the bottom of the fifth to
wrap up the one-run triumph.
Nick Jeffers and Tyler Cline led
the Raiders with two hits apiece, followed by Trey Farley, Timmy Kemper, Joseph Loyd and Dan Goodrich
with a safety apiece. Farley, Kemper,
Cline and Goodrich each drove in an
RBI in the setback.

Lady Eagles fall to Wellston, GAHS
Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio —
So much for the home field advantage.
It was a tough weekend for
the Eastern softball team, as the
Lady Eagles lost a pair of nonconference games to Wellston
and Gallia Academy on Saturday
at Don Jackson Field.
The Lady Eagles (3-3) suffered a 7-2 setback to Wellston
in the opener, then watched the
Blue Angels rally for three runs

in the seventh inning to claim a
7-5 victory in the night cap.
EHS fell behind 4-0 through
five-and-a-half innings of play
in the opening contest before
finally managing to get on the
scoreboard in the bottom of the
sixth, as an error allowed Breanna Bailey to score for a 4-1
contest.
WHS mustered three runs in
its half of the seventh for a 7-1
cushion, and the hosts managed
only one more score after Sabra Bailey scored on a two-out
single by Kiki Osborne — wrap-

ping up the five-run outcome.
The Lady Rockets outhit the
hosts by an 8-5 overall margin
and also benefitted from five
EHS errors while only committing one mistake of their own.
Grace Edwards was saddled with
the losing decision for Eastern.
Paige Cline led the Lady Eagles
with three hits, followed by Osborne and Tori Goble with a
safety apiece.
The Blue Angels stormed out
to a 4-1 edge through two innings in the finale, but Eastern
countered with a run in the third

and three scores in the fifth to
secure its only lead of the day
at 5-4. GAHS, however, plated
three runs in the top of the seventh to claim a 7-5 cushion — a
lead that ultimately held up.
The Lady Eagles outhit Gallia Academy by an 11-5 overall
margin, but the hosts committed a whopping eight errors —
compared to only three by the
Angels. Edwards was again the
losing pitcher of record for EHS,
while Jessica Harrold picked up
the winning decision.
Paige Cline, Tori Goble and

Erin Swatzel led Eastern with
two hits apiece, followed by
Kiki Osborne, Grace Edwards,
Sabra Bailey, Jourdan Griffin and Breanna Bailey with a
safety each. Edwards — who
hit a solo homer in the second
inning — led the hosts with the
RBIs, while Osborne scored
twice.
Kendra Barnes, Chelsy Slone,
Violet Pelfrey, Kassie Shriver and
Makenzie Barr each had a hit for
the victors. Maggie Westfall had
a team-high two RBIs, while Pelfrey scored twice in the decision.

Special to OVP

EAST BANK, W.Va. — Shane Spies
had three hits, including a home run
and a double, and drove in five runs
to lead the University of Rio Grande
in an 11-0 win over West Virginia
University Tech, Saturday afternoon,
in the opening game of a non-conference baseball doubleheader at Epling
Field.
The Golden Bears salvaged a split
with a 3-0 victory over the RedStorm
in game two.
Rio Grande also got three hits - including a double - from senior Vince
Perry (Cypress, CA) and two hits
apiece from sophomores Grant Tamane (Pickering, Ontario, Canada)
and Kyle Findley (Cincinnati, OH)
in the game one win. Tamane also
scored twice and drove in two runs,
while senior Kyle Perez (Casselberry,
FL) also had two RBIs and scored
three times.
Freshman Jonathan Schob (Decatur, OH) added a double in Rio’s 13hit attack.
The RedStorm scored twice in the
third and fourth innings, before tacking on three markers in the sixth inning and four runs in the seventh.
Spies, a senior from Polk, Ohio,
gave Rio all the runs it would need in
the third when he clubbed his team-

best 12th home run of the season in
the third inning off of Tech starter
Craig Johnson.
Tamane had a two-run double in the
fourth inning, before Spies added a
two-run double of his own and Findley had a run-scoring hit in the sixth.
Perez had a two-run double and
Spies tacked on an RBI single in the
four-run seventh.
Senior Ryan Robertson (Waverly,
OH) tossed a six-hit shutout, walking
two and striking out eight en route to
his fifth win in nine decisions.
Jose Soto and Raul Torres had two
hits each for the Golden Bears, while
Johnson suffered the loss.
In the nightcap, Tech pushed across
a first inning run against Rio junior
starter Mike Deitsch (Cincinnati, OH)
and added two more runs in the third.
Meanwhile, Tech hurlers Josh
Smetana and Cesar Chavez teamed
on a five-hit shutout. Smetana allowed
three hits and three walks over 5-2/3
innings to get the win, while Chavez
allowed two hits over 1-1/3 innings to
earn the save.
Ryan Kessinger had two hits and
scored twice for Tech (20-16), while
Soto drove in a pair of runs.
Dietsch was the hard-luck loser for
the RedStorm (22-17), allowing just
five hits and three runs - two earned in a complete game effort. He walked
only one and fanned six.

Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

PAWLEYS ISLAND, S.C.
— The Point Pleasant baseball team finished up its
spring break baseball trip
in style Friday and Saturday with a 4-3 win over Atlantic Shores Christian and
a 16-8 victory over Loris at
Waccamaw High School in
Georgetown County.
The Big Blacks evened
its season record to 5-5
overall with both decisions,
and PPHS also managed a
split against the Seahwaks
following the Friday out-

come. ASCS defeated Point
by a 5-3 margin in the opening contest on Tuesday.
After being rained out
on Wednesday, Point Pleasant needed extra innings to
pick up their first victory
of the week at the Mingo
Bay Tournament. The Seahawks broke a two-all tie
in the top of the eighth for
a 3-2 edge, but PPHS rallied for two runs in its half
of the eighth to wrap up the
one-run decision.
Alex Somerville started
the eighth by reaching on
an error and Matt Richardson singled Somerville

home two batters later to
knot things up at three.
Evan Potter followed with a
single, then a two-out walk
to Bruce McDermitt loaded
the bases with Levi Doolittle headed to the plate.
With a full count, Doolittle watched as ball-four
missed the plate — allowing
Richardson to come home
with the game-winning
score. PPHS was outhit 7-6
in the contest and committed three of the four errors
in the triumph. Point left
seven runners stranded on
base, while the Seahawks
left eight on the bags.

Nick Templeton was
the winning pitcher of record, allowing two runs,
three hits and three walks
over four innings of relief
while fanning three. Justin
Towles took the loss for
ASCS.
Somerville, Richardson,
Potter, McDermitt, Tylun
Campbell and Levi Russell
each had a hit for the victors. Somerville, Richardson, Russell and Doolittle
each drove in an RBI.
The Big Blacks rallied
from a 5-1 first inning deficit on Saturday by scoring
15 consecutive runs before

Entertainment

Loris plated three in the
home half of the seventh
to wrap up the 2-for-1 triumph. PPHS scored nine
runs between the second
and sixth frames for a 10-5
lead, then plated six scores
in the top half of the seventh for a commanding
16-5 edge.
Point Pleasant outhit the
hosts by a 14-10 overall
margin and also benefitted
from five LHS errors while
committing only two itself.
PPHS left eight runners on
base while Loris stranded
six on the bags.
Evan Potter led Point

with three hits, followed by
Somerville, Gage Buskirk
and Jacob Gardner with
two safeties apiece. Campbell, McDermitt, Russell
and Steven Porter also had
a hit each for the victors.

RBIs and scored three
times, while Gardner and

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday,
April 9, 2013:
This year others find you to be
exceptionally creative and a source of
many new ideas, and they often seek
you out for help. Your efforts are, and
will be, more valued than you realize.
If you are single, you open up to new
possibilities. Unless you are willing
to meet someone at least halfway,
creating a bond could be difficult. If
you are attached, honor the fact that
it takes two to form and carry on a
relationship. Your sweetie could need
extra nurturing. A fellow ARIES might
not have your imagination, but he or
she is fun to hang out with.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHH The unexpected marks
your actions, yet you also could
be reacting to a parent or boss.
Opportunities come to you through
conversations and from staying in
contact with those in your immediate
circle. Choose the right one for you.
Tonight: As you like it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HH Suddenly, you get it — you
understand what has been going on
between you and someone else. You
can change your perspective, but
often you can’t control your knee-jerk
reaction. That transformation will take
time. Tonight: Make a small purchase
on the way home.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH You know what you want
and where you are heading. The
trick will be encouraging others not to
interfere with your set course. Even
better would be to gain their support.
You will have your hands full convincing an associate of the rightness of
your ways. Tonight: Make nice.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHHH You are capable of dealing with the unexpected. Your mood
swings depending on the situation.
Know that how you feel now might
change within a short period of time.
Be careful, as a partner or an associate could become controlling. Tonight:
In the limelight.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHHH Seek out information that
might not be readily available. Figure
out why a situation is happening,
beyond the obvious. Step back and
observe, as you will be able to see
more easily. Know that a different
approach is needed. Tonight: Join
friends at a jam session.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

HHHH Deal with others directly.
People appreciate your time more
than you realize. Pressure builds
where you least expect it. Others
have strong points of view that might
not stand up to a creative idea. A
boss gives you the authority you
want. Tonight: Share your day with
a pal.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHH The unexpected occurs when
dealing with others. You could decide
that you don’t want any drama, but
that is what you will get with your
present circle of friends. Why not take
this as a sign to detach? You can
be present without being involved.
Tonight: Take a favorite person out.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHH You’ll want to play it lowkey, no matter what goes on. Listen
to others and what they are sharing.
You have a strong sense of what is
needed. Tune into one person and
work together to achieve more of
what you both want. Tonight: Make
sure you get some exercise.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHHH Allow your creativity to
flow, and you will make it through a
difficult situation. Your innate reaction
draws strong results. Do not become
involved in a power play or difficult
situation. Others want to be around
you, so let them. Tonight: Let the fun
begin.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHH You might want to reassess a situation more carefully, especially as it can have quite an impact
on your personal life. You might be
more controlling than you realize, and
it will draw in only negative reactions.
Take some time to clear your head.
Tonight: At home.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHHH Listen, but try not to
overwhelm someone with questions.
You could feel as if this person has
pushed you beyond the call of duty.
How you communicate that feeling
will determine the nature of your bond
in the long run. You do need to say
something. Tonight: Kick up your
heels.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH You might want to rethink
a question involving your funds and
security. Your impulsiveness could
have given someone the wrong
impression. You could want to change
the situation. You also might be too
generous for your own good. Tonight:
Your treat.

Patriots sweep twinbill from Rio softball
Randy Payton
Special to OVP

RIO GRANDE, Ohio — St.
Catharine College banged out
17 runs and 24 hits en route to a
doubleheader sweep of the University of Rio Grande, Saturday
afternoon, in Mid-South Conference action at Rio Softball Park.
The Patriots pounded the RedStorm in game one, 10-1, before
rallying to post a 7-5 victory in
eight innings in the nightcap.
The sweep left Rio Grande at
15-10 overall and 4-8 in the MSC,
while St. Catharine improved to
16-18 overall and 6-10 in league
play.
In game one, St. Catharine

starter Ashley Hardin tossed a
complete game three-hitter and
allowed just one unearned run.
Meanwhile, Krystal Cammuse
clubbed a three-run third inning
home run and Hagan Goldey
added a two-out, two-run single
in the fourth inning to give the
Patriots a 5-0 lead.
Consecutive two-out doubles
by Shelbi Thornhill and Chelcie
Rein in the fifth made it 6-0, before Rio Grande got on the scoreboard in the bottom of the fifth
thanks to a pair of errors and a
sacrifice fly by senior Kaylee
Walk (Unionville Center, OH).
The Patriots set the final score
with four runs in the seventh inning, highlighted by a two-run

single by Brittany McKee.
Goldey, Thornhill, Rein and
McKee all had two hits in the
victory.
Freshman Kim Rollins (Liberty Township, OH) had a triple
among Rio’s three hits, while
freshman pitcher Kimber Hazlett
(Utica, OH) suffered the loss.
In game two, St. Catharine
erased deficits of 3-0 and 5-3
to push across a pair of eighth
inning runs and complete the
sweep.
The RedStorm got a two-out
RBI single by senior Kaitie Stewart (Pleasant Hill, OH) in the
first inning and a two-run double
by Walk in the second for a threerun cushion, but the Patriots tied

the game in the top of the fourth
thanks to a two-run double by
Thornhill and an RBI single by
McKee.
Rio regained the lead in the
bottom of the fourth thanks to a
throwing error that allowed two
runs to score, but St. Catharine
knotted the score again in the top
of the fifth thanks to a groundout
by Cammuse and an RBI single
by McKee.
That’s how things stayed until
the top of the eighth when a twoout single by Brandi Hood broke
the tie and a single by Taylor
Steff plated an insurance run.
Rio Grande loaded the bases
with no outs in the bottom of
the eighth thanks to singles

by freshman Jordan Jenkins
(Portsmouth, OH) and Hazlett and a walk to Rollins, but
Cammuse struck out freshman
Mattie Lanham (Rio Grande,
OH) and retired senior Jaymie
Rector (Heath, OH) and Walk
on infield popouts to end the
game.
Hood had three hits to pace
SCC, while Goldey, Steff, Thornhill and McKee all had two hits.
Cammuse earned the win, allowing six hits and two runs
over 6-2/3 innings of relief. She
walked two and fanned 10.
Sophomore Jessi Robinson
(Wilmington, OH) had three hits
for Rio Grande, while Jenkins
took the loss in relief of Stewart.

MARTINSVILLE, Va. (AP) — No
matter the changes to the car, the
tires, or the weather, Martinsville
Speedway is Jimmie Johnson’s kind
of place.
Johnson led a career-best 346 laps
Sunday and pulled away on a restart
with eight laps to go for his eighth
career victory on the shortest track
in the Sprint Cup Series, taking over
third place on the career victories list
on NASCAR’s oldest track.
The only drivers ahead of him? Hall
of famers Richard Petty with 15 wins,
and Darrell Waltrip with 11.
“Probably the most calm, relaxed
thought-out weekend that we’ve ever
had as the 48 (team),” Johnson said.
From the time he rolled his car
onto the track for the first practice
Friday until the final restart, Johnson
had a dominant car, and knew it. And
with his track record here, even when
things seemed to take a bad turn, he
and his team trusted history.
“We stuck to our game plan and
knew what we wanted to have in the
race and stayed patient, and it was
tough to do at times, but it certainly
worked out well,” the five-time series
champion said. “And in the race, we
had to adjust on the fly.”
No team does it better at Martinsville, and while Johnson said the final
caution came at an inopportune time
because he’d built a big lead over
Clint Bowyer, he also realized it may
have saved him from having to fight
off teammate Jeff Gordon.
“Jeff on the long run probably had

the car to beat,” he said. “Jeff has a
really good line here on the long run,
and he started catching me before the
last caution and I was thinking, ‘Man,
if this stays green, this could be a Jeff
Gordon day.”
Instead, the caution flew on lap
487.
Johnson picked the inside line for
the final restart with Bowyer on the
outside, Gordon behind him and Kyle
Busch to his outside, and Johnson got
a clean break for the lead into Turn 1,
his top priority to build some separation for the finish.
“I felt like if I could get two or
three corners and maintain the lead
on Clint, I could stretch it back out
again,” he said.
Bowyer slid into second and Busch,
who tried to make a move on the outside line, instead got hung up out
there as Gordon and his Hendrick
Motorsports teammate, Kasey Kahne, who restarted fifth, went underneath to take fourth.
Nothing changed the rest of the
way and the top five finished in those
positions.
Gordon, too, was thinking he had
a chance until Kurt Busch crashed,
bringing out the 12th and final caution.
“I obviously didn’t want to see a
short run there at the end,” he said.
The victory made team owner Rick
Hendrick’s organization the winningest team in Martinsville history
with 20, breaking a tie it had with the
Petty organization.
