Pomeroy Police Chief back on the job
Council votes 3-2 to reinstate Proffitt after surprise termination

By Sarah Hawley

shawley@heartlandpublications.com

POMEROY — After a confusing, rollercoster of events on
Tuesday, Pomeroy Police Chief
Mark Proffitt was back on the job
Wednesday morning.
Proffitt was issued a letter informing him of his termination
by new Pomeroy Mayor Mary
McAngus at 4:05 p.m. on Tuesday, following a morning meeting
between the two.
According to the termination
letter obtained by The Daily Sentinel, Proffitt was removed for insubordination.
“Insubordination [is] not obeying an order from the Mayor. The
Mayor is the Chief of Police’s superior. I met with Chief Proffitt
this morning and told him what I

wanted. He ignored me as to how
I wanted the village run,” the letter read.
The letter goes on to say that
Proffitt treated McAngus with
disrespect in their first official
meeting.
The letter does not give additional details, such as how to
appeal the decision or reference
to any events prior to January 3,
2012.
On Wednesday morning, Proffitt acknowledged that he and
McAngus meet around 11:30 a.m.
on Tuesday and discussed personnel issues within the police department. According to Proffitt,
McAngus wanted him to rehire
one officer and fire another.
Proffitt said, “She wanted me to
fire an officer without just cause.”
With regard to the officer

McAngus reportedly wanted rehired, Proffitt said the officer is
under investigation by his department and the Ohio State Patrol
has been involved with the investigation.
Proffitt said the morning meeting with McAngus was pleasant
and an overall good meeting, with
the two simply going over employee files.
“This is a very embarrassing
situation for all parties involved,”
said Proffitt.
At 4:05 p.m., Proffitt was given
the termination letter, and McAngus reportedly named Sgt. Brandy
King as the acting chief.
The Sheriff’s Office and Prosecuting Attorney were advised of
the events, according to Proffitt,
with two deputies present as Proffitt was allowed to remove person-

al items from his office. Proffitt
stated he removed only personal
items such as plaques, certificates
and books from his office.
An emergency meeting of the
Pomeroy Village Council was
called on Tuesday evening to address the day’s events. According
to Proffitt, he requested the termination be appealed to the council,
with McAngus calling the meeting.
During the emergency meeting,
council entered into an executive
session to discuss the issue. Upon
return from executive session,
a vote by the five village council
members reinstated Proffitt be
a 3-2 margin. Council members
Ruth Spaun and Vic Young voted
no.
According to a recording of the
meeting obtained from the Village

Clerk, in voting ‘no’, Young stated he could not vote to reinstate
Proffitt, saying, “not as long as
they (Proffitt and McAngus) are
against each other.” Young went
on to say, “The mayor is an elected official and cannot be pushed
around.”
Proffitt was “reinstated without
prejudice” according to Pomeroy
Council President Jackie Welker.
Three deputies were also present at village hall after the council
meeting.
Proffitt was back on the job
Wednesday.
Despite numerous attempts,
McAngus could not be reached for
comment Wednesday afternoon.
The next Pomeroy Village
Council meeting will take place at
7 p.m. on Monday, January 9.

CHESTER — Randy Armes, who
began racing cars when he was 11,
has won the 2011 “Rookie of the
Year” award in the AMRA late model class at the I-77 Raceway Park at
Evans, W.Va.
A junior at Eastern High School,
the youth is the son of Randy and
Edna Armes of Chester.
“The points battle for the Rookie
of the Year title was extremely close

in every class and came down to the
last race with a few classes coming
down to just a few points,” said track
owners, Kenny Newhouse and Craig
Givens.
Others taking titles in the rookie
category were Jeremy Salisbury,
modified rookie of the year; Larry
Longfellow, semi-late top rookie;
Clifford McDonald, outlaw street
stock rookie; David Elmore, mod-lit
rookie; and Ben Vance, outlaw 4- cylinder top rookie.
In addition to the Rookie awards,

there were numerous other awards
presented at the conclusion of the
racing season. The AMRA Late
Model Champion was Chris Garnes,
with Vince Conrad as the AMRA
Modified Champion. The Mod-Lit
Champion was Aaron Pendleton,

New EPA power plant standards delayed
By Nathan Jeffers

njeffers@heartlandpublications.com

OHIO VALLEY — The deadline for
the new EPA standards for coal-fired
power plants has been postponed.
On Dec. 30, 2011, two days before
the new standards would be put into effect, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
D.C. Circuit approved an application to
delay the EPA’s Cross-State Air Pollution Rule. The EPA finalized these new
standards in July 2011, which would set
stricter limits on the chemical emissions
from power plants in 27 states, in order
to protect the health of the public.
It was thought by many that the deadline of Jan. 1 was too soon to design and
install such upgrades that would reduce
these harmful emissions. It would also
force several plants to shut down, or
to only run part of the time. American
Electric Power announced in June 2011
that it would likely have to close down
several coal-fired power plants. It was
reported that this new set of rules is one
of the contributing factors of the closing
of the Philip Sporn power plant in New
Haven.
According to Scott Segal, director
of the Electric Reliability Coordinating
Council, a coalition of power companies,
this ruling is the first step in setting
things right.

“The underlying rule was the subject
of hasty process, poor technical support,
unequal application and substantial
threat to jobs, power bills and reliability,” Segal said.
This is not the first time there have
been new standards proposed for power
plants. These new rules would replace
a rejected proposal by the Bush administration in 2005. The current standard
for power plants is expected to cost $1.6
billion annually, and it is estimated that
these new standards would add an extra
$800 million a year. However, according to the EPA, the cost of implementing these new standards would be far
outweighed by the hundreds of billions
of dollars that would be saved in health
care costs, due to having cleaner air.
Many environmentalists reported that
they would continue to fight for these
new regulations.
“The pollution reductions at stake are
some of the single most important clean
air protections for children, families and
communities across the eastern half of
the United States,” said Vickie Patton,
general counsel for Environmental Defense Fund.
The EPA reported that even though
this ruling is disappointing, they are
confident that these new rules will be
upheld, even if temporarily delayed.

PROCTORVILLE, Ohio —
The Meigs boys basketball team
is still searching for its first victory this season following an
80-37 setback to host Fairland
Tuesday night during a non-conference matchup in Lawrence
County.
The visiting Marauders (010) allowed 40 points in each
half and shot just 29 percent
from the field, as the Dragons

matchup at Charles W. Hayman Gymnasium in Meigs

10-8 early in the second
quarter, but the hosts exploded for 16 of the next 17
points to establish a 24-11
edge late in the half. The

on a late basket just before

23-18 in the second half, but
never came within two possessions the rest of the way.

for 28 percent, including a
4-of-12 effort from threepoint range for 33 percent.

MASON, W.Va. — Forget the
milestone. Isaac Lee will take the
victory.
The Wahama senior scored a
game-high 26 points while becoming the fourth White Falcon to reach
1,000 points in a career during a
74-54 victory over visiting Eastern
Tuesday night in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in
Mason County.
Lee, a four-year starter for WHS,
hit quadruple digits for his career
at the 6:58 mark of the third period,
scoring an old-fashioned three-point
play that gave Wahama (3-5, 2-2
TVC Hocking) its first three-possession lead of the night at 33-26.
The Eagles (4-2, 2-2) — who
hadn’t played since December 20 —
never came closer than six points
(34-28) the rest of the way, as the
White Falcons closed the final 13:23
of regulation on a 40-26 run to snap
a two-game losing skid.
Wahama, however, found itself
down 11 points on three separate
occasions in the first half, the last
of which came at 19-8 with 6:29 remaining in the first half. The hosts
countered with a 20-5 surge over the
rest of the second quarter to take a

Blue Angels outlast River Valley in 2OT, 52-51
Bryan Walters

bwalters@mydailytribune.com

BIDWELL, Ohio — The
Gallia Academy girls basketball team needed two
overtimes, but the Blue Angels snapped a seven-game
losing skid Tuesday night
during a hard-fought 5251 victory over host River
Valley in a non-conference
matchup between Gallia
County programs.
The visiting Blue Angels (2-9) claimed a season
sweep of the Lady Raiders
(1-7), who dropped their
fifth straight overall decision. GAHS also overcame
a two-possession deficit at
the half to claim the first

season sweep in this series
since the 2006-07 campaign.
The Blue Angels jumped
out to a small 8-7 lead after
eight minutes of play, but
the Lady Raiders countered
with an 11-6 surge to claim
an 18-14 edge at the intermission.
Gallia Academy pulled to
within a possession after
going on a 10-9 spurt in the
third canto for a 27-24 contest, then the guests closed
regulation with an 18-15
run to draw even at 42 —
forcing the first overtime.
Neither team had much
luck offensively in the
first extra session, as both
teams produced two points

to end the first overtime
knotted at 44. Cady Gilmore hit a field goal for the
hosts, while Haley Rosier
netted two free throws for
GAHS in the first OT.
Gilmore scored six of
River Valley’s seven points
in the second OT, but
Gallia Academy received
points from three different
players down the stretch —
which allowed the guests
to go on a small 8-7 spurt
to wrap up the one-point
decision. GAHS was 6-of-9
at the charity stripe during
overtime, while the Lady
Raiders went 1-for-4 during
that same span.
Heather Ward led the
Blue Angels with 13 points,

followed by Kendra Barnes
with 11 points and Mattie
Lanham with 10 markers.
Ward and Lanham combined to score 21 of their
23 points after halftime, including three apiece in the
second OT.
Ciera Jackson added
eight points and Rosier
finished with six markers,
while Brittany Lloyd and
Halley Barnes rounded out
the scoring with two points
each. GAHS was 13-of-24
at the free throw line for 54
percent.
Gilmore paced River Valley with a game-high 19
points, 17 of which came
after halftime. Alli Neville
was next with 17 points,

followed by Chelsey Copley
with nine markers. Shalin
Comer, Beth Misner and
Kaci Bryant rounded out
the scoring with two points
apiece. RVHS was 10-of-19
at the charity stripe for 53
percent.

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — The Ohio Valley Christian boys basketball team improved to 7-2 overall this winter following a
54-45 victory Tuesday night over visiting Grace Christian in a
non-conference matchup in Gallia County.
The Defenders jumped out to a small 11-8 edge after eight
minutes of play, then both teams traded 10 points apiece in
the second canto — allowing the hosts to take a 21-18 cushion
into the intermission.
The Soldiers never came closer the rest of the way, as OVCS
went on a 16-12 run in the third stanza for a 37-30 lead headed
into the finale. The hosts closed regulation with a small 17-15
spurt to wrap up the nine-point triumph.
Chance Burleson led Ohio Valley Christian with 18 points,
followed by Pete Carman and Paul Miller with 13 markers
apiece. Burleson and Carman both had double-doubles, as
Burleson came up with a school-record 13 steals while Carman hauled in 10 rebounds.
T.G. Miller added eight points and Ben Tillis rounded out
the winning score with two markers. Burleson also had a
team-best six assists.
Aaron Webber paced Grace with 18 points, followed by
Chris Adkins with 13 points and Joey Rhea with 10 markers.
Ohio Valley Christian returns to action Thursday when travels to Cross Lanes Christian for a non-conference matchup at

Lee, who scored 18 of his 26
markers in the second half during a pivotal 46-30 charge, joins
former greats Gary Clark (1970),
Roger Dingey (1973) and John
Barnitz (1991) in reaching the
1,000-point plateau for boys. Lee
also recorded a double-double in
the decision, hauling in a gamehigh 11 rebounds.
“We usually don’t start out
very well, but once we get going
… we get going,” Lee said. “It’s
a nice accomplishment for me to
join such an elite group, but more
importantly, we came out of this
with a win. All that matters is the
win, which does make this night a
little more special.”
Third-year WHS coach Mike
Wolfe spoke about what makes
Lee so special. His athleticism
and skill set were overlooked for

CENTENARY, Ohio — It was
an unfortunate tale of two halves
for the Gallia Academy boys basketball team Tuesday night during
a 63-35 setback to visiting Ironton
in a non-conference matchup in
Gallia County.
The host Blue Devils (3-7)
claimed a small 12-10 edge after
one quarter of play, but the Tigers
(8-1) responded with an 18-11 run
in the second canto to establish a
28-23 cushion at the intermission.
Trey Fletcher scored on a putback
to put Ironton ahead for good at
13-12 with seven minutes left in
the half.
IHS opened the third period
with a 12-0 surge to establish a
40-23 cushion, and GAHS ended
five-plus minutes of scoring futility at the 2:51 mark when Caleb
Craft pulled the hosts to within
40-25. Both teams traded four
points apiece the rest of the period en route to a 44-29 contest
headed into the finale.

something far more valuable.
“He is definitely one of the most
coachable kids that I have ever
had the pleasure of coaching. He
never asks why, he just does what
you tell him to do,” Wolfe said.
“He’s not selfish at all and he never lets foolish pride get in the way.
He continues to battle even when
he’s not playing well, and his effort makes up for the nights that
he might be off.
“That’s what a leader does for
his team, especially one as young
as this one. I’m proud of him for
reaching this milestone, because
it’s an example of hard work paying off.”
The hard work, however, was
paying early dividends for EHS,
as the guests stormed out to 15-4
edge with 1:22 left in the opening
period before claiming a 15-6 edge
after eight minutes of play.
Eastern scored the opening
basket of the second quarter for a
17-6 lead, then traded points with
the hosts for a 19-8 cushion with
just under six-and-a-half minutes
left before halftime.
WHS responded with a 14-0
surge over the next 2:31 for a 22-

Ironton led by at least 13 points
the rest of the way and closed regulation with a 19-6 charge to wrap
up the 28-point decision.
Gallia Academy connected on
14-of-39 field goal attempts for
36 percent, including a 4-of-17
effort from three-point range for
24 percent. The hosts committed
27 turnovers and were also outrebounded 34-26 in the setback.
Justin Bailey and Nick Saunders
both led GAHS with 12 points
apiece, with Bailey also posting
a double-double with a team-best
12 rebounds. Jimmy Clagg and
Caleb Craft rounded out the scoring with six and five markers, respectively. The Blue Devils were
3-of-8 at the free throw line for 38
percent.
Trey Fletcher paced Ironton
with a game-high 20 points, followed by Trevor White with 11
points and Tanner Dutey with
eight markers. IHS committed
just seven turnovers and shot 41
percent from the field.
Gallia Academy returns to action Friday when it travels to

21 lead, but the Eagles ended a
3:07 scoring drought at the 3:22
mark for their final lead of the
night at 23-22. Wahama countered with a score with 2:21 left
in the half, then closed the second
stanza on a 4-0 spurt for a twopossession halftime advantage.
EHS pulled to within 28-26 at
the 7:42 mark of the third quarter,
but the hosts answered with a 2011 run to take comfortable 48-37
cushion into the finale.
Wahama led by as many as 21
points (65-44) with 4:03 left in
regulation, and Eastern never
came closer than 68-54 with 2:11
remaining. The White Falcons
closed the game on a 6-0 run to
wrap up the 20-point triumph.
Wahama connected on 29-of56 field goal attempts for 52 percent, including a 1-of-7 effort from
three-point range for 14 percent.
The hosts also outrebounded
Eastern by a 33-26 margin and
committed 15 turnovers, five less
than the Eagles’ tally of 20 giveaways.
Austin Jordan followed Lee
with 16 points for the victors, followed by Wyatt Zuspan with 10

points and Jacob Ortiz with nine
markers. Tyler Roush added seven
points, while Hunter Oliver, Michael Hendricks and D.J. Gibbs
rounded out the scoring with two
markers apiece. WHS was 15-of26 at the free throw line for 58
percent.
Kirk Pullins paced Eastern with
15 points, followed by Max Carnahan with 10 points and Christian Amsbary with nine markers.
Chase Cook and Troy Gantt added respective totals of eight and
four points, while Chris Bissell
and Justin Hill chipped in three
markers each.
Ethan Stegar rounded out the
EHS scoring with two points.
The guests were 21-of-48 from the
field for 44 percent, including a
5-of-16 effort from three-point territory for 31 percent. Eastern was
also 7-of-14 at the charity stripe
for 50 percent.
Wahama returns to action Friday when it travels to Federal
Hocking for a TVC Hocking contest at 6 p.m. Eastern will host
South Gallia Friday night in a

Portsmouth for a Southeastern
Ohio Athletic League matchup at
5 p.m.

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday,
Jan. 5, 2012:
This year, focus on the quality of
your daily life. To make your life work,
take good care of your health, treat
yourself well and follow a sensible
lifestyle. You often don’t understand
where others are coming from. The
smart action is not to judge, and to
simply observe what happens. If you
are single, you could meet someone
through the process of living. Don’t
push the process. If you are attached,
the two of you will experience more
happiness if you share a common
hobby. GEMINI, though different, also
is efficient.
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 Confusion surrounds
the beginning of the workday. Keep
asking questions, and clear out the
present haze. To others, you act in
unexpected ways. Once you gain clarity, you gain new insights pointing
in an unthought-of direction. Tonight:
Talking up a storm.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHH What might be presented as
an opportunity could be nothing less
than a problem once you gain a clear
perspective. You might be stunned,
but your knee-jerk reaction opens up
a situation. Listen to your inner voice.
Tonight: Your treat.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH Let your mind wander. You
might want to back up an idea by
doing needed research or clearing out
a hassle. What motivates someone
you look up to might not be clear. A
meeting or friend could make a surprising allegation. Tonight: The world
is your oyster.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHH Lie low for yourself, but not
to provoke a certain reaction. Given
some downtime, you’ll emerge a force
to be dealt with. A respected friend or
loved one could jolt you with his or her
thoughts or actions. Your instincts will
guide you. Tonight: Get some extra
R and R.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHH Just when you thought
you had established a set of strong
interactions, chaos clouds the situation. When you are clear, you could be
shocked by what you see. Emphasize
your long-term goals and desires.
Hold back if need be. Tonight: Zero in
on what is important.

Horoscope

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHHH You take a stand. Make
sure you aren’t dependent on getting
a certain reaction. Eventually, without
pushing, people will see the light of
your ideas. A key partner or loved one
continues to keep your life exciting.
Tonight: A must appearance.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHHH Keep reaching out for
someone at a distance. Your ability to
mend fences doesn’t need to happen.
Why not let the other party make the
necessary overtures? You discover
how full of surprises another person
is. Do you really want to deal with this
energy? Tonight: Take an overview of
the possibilities, then decide.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHH You have a lot going on,
and much comes from a partner who
seems to be an open valve into your
life. This person cannot seem to leave
you alone. When do you declare
“enough”? How do you do it? Setting
boundaries might define your success.
Tonight: A talk.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH Defer to others. You will
gain insight into your own agenda,
and also theirs. Be honest — are they
compatible? You might want to see
what you have in common, despite
different solutions. A child or loved
one delights you. Tonight: Relax with
a loved one.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHH All work and no play is not
what the doctor ordered. Your intuition
comes through when dealing with a
neighbor or a close relative. If you are
confused, imagine how confused this
person is. In which area of your life are
you not seeing everything? Somehow,
every person’s vision screens information. Tonight: Get some extra R and R.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHHH Your imagination can get
you and others into a lot of mischief. If
you decide to suddenly veer in another direction, you could be happier, but
others will complain. Remain true to
yourself. Tonight: In weekend mode.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHH You might want to retreat,
as confusion and demands seem to
come toward you. Whether closing the
door at your office or deciding to call
in and take a personal day, you need
to take care of yourself. Buy a lottery
ticket if you feel lucky. Tonight: Happy
to be home.
