Hundreds of millions of dollars in federal CARES Act funding was allocated Monday by the Ohio Controlling Board, to be distributed in the coming weeks. In the cases of schools, both for primary and higher education, this money will stem cuts made by the state government earlier this year. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act was passed by Congress back in March as a multi-trillion dollar economic recovery package. Here is a basic breakdown of the money being distributed: K-12 education A total of $88 million is going toward primary and secondary education. This money is further being split by type of district: $34.5 million for rural and small-town districts $29 million for suburban districts $24.5 million for urban districts $12 million for community schools, county boards of developmental disabilities, joint vocational school districts, independent STEM schools and non-public schools. Each district will receive funding proportional to the amount of students enrolled there. Extra funds will be added based on “special populations” — students with disabilities, English learners and poor students. The money can be used for “expenses they are likely to face as school leaders prepare for the start Ashley Durst | Courtesy Pictured is Nathan Wood who showed the grand champion market goat sold at the 2019 Mason County Fair.

Brent Patterson, who performed on June 19, was set to return to Riverfront Park for Mayor’s Night this week, on Ohio Valley Publishing Trump rescinds rule on foreign students By Collin Binkley AP Education Writer BOSTON — Facing eight federal lawsuits and opposition from hundreds of universities, the Trump administration on Tuesday rescinded a rule that would have required international students to transfer or leave the country if their schools held classes entirely online because of the pandemic. The decision was announced at the start of a hearing in a federal lawsuit in Boston brought by Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs said federal immigration authorities agreed to pull the July 6 directive and “return to the status quo.” A lawyer representing the Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said only that the judge’s characterization was correct. The announcement brings relief to thousands of foreign students who had been at risk of being deported from the country, along with hundreds of universities that were scrambling to reassess their plans for the fall in light of the policy. Under the policy, international students in the U.S. would have been forbidden from taking all their courses online this fall. New visas would not have been issued Bebeto Matthews | AP Natalia Afonso, an international student from Brazil at Brooklyn College in New York who is studying teaching education and finished her first semester this spring, said she has lived in the U.S. for seven years and “I don’t see myself moving back to Brazil at this point. to students at schools planning to provide all classes online, which includes Harvard. Students already in the U.S. would have faced deportation if they didn’t transfer schools or leave the country voluntarily. Immigration ofﬁcials issued the policy last week, reversing earlier guidance from March 13 telling colleges that limits around online education would be suspended during the pandemic. University leaders believed the rule was part of President Donald Trump’s effort to pressure the nation’s schools and colleges to reopen this fall even as new virus cases rise. The policy drew sharp backlash from higher education institutions, with more than 200 signing court briefs sup- porting the challenge by Harvard and MIT. Colleges said the policy would put students’ safety at risk and hurt schools ﬁnancially. Many schools rely on tuition from international students, and some stood to lose millions of dollars in revenue if the rule had taken hold. Harvard and MIT were the ﬁrst to contest the policy, but at least seven other federal suits had been ﬁled by universities and states opposing the rule. Harvard and MIT argued that immigration ofﬁcials violated procedural rules by issuing the guidance without justiﬁcation and without allowing the public to respond. They also argued that the policy contradicted ICE’s March 13 direc- tive telling schools that existing limits on online education would be suspended “for the duration of the emergency.” The suit noted that Trump’s national emergency declaration has not been rescinded and that virus cases are spiking in some regions. Immigration ofﬁcials, however, argued that they told colleges all along that any guidance prompted by the pandemic was subject to change. They said the rule was consistent with existing law barring international students from taking classes entirely online. Federal ofﬁcials said they were providing leniency by allowing students to keep their visas even if they study online from abroad. a person is unable to maintain a six foot social distance. The approved ordinance states in part, “the Athens City-County Health Commissioners advised the Mayor in a letter on July 8, 2020 that there is a surge in new COVID-19 cases through personto-person transmission and stated that wearing a facial covering can reduce virus transmission by up to 75% and is an effective way to prevent the spread of the virus from an infected person.” The ordinance also states that as of July 8, cases in Athens County had more than doubled in one week and that the number of active cases had increased ﬁve-fold in one week. As of Tuesday afternoon, Athens County has 201 cases of COVID-19, with 146 considered to be active. The ordinance went into effect Monday evening immediately following its approval. The ordinance states that violation is considered an administrative offense and requires a ﬁne of $100. Portsmouth approved the mask mandate during a city council meeting on Monday evening in a 4-1 vote, according to the Portsmouth Daily Times, a publication of AIM Media Midwest. The mask mandate took effect at 8 a.m. on Tuesday, requiring Portsmouth residents to wear a mask in public places and businesses. The Daily Times reports that inside city limits warnings will be issued for ﬁrst violations, with increasing ﬁnes after the initial warning.

The Indians seem to be standing in an uncomfortable on-deck circle. Now that the NFL’s Washington Redskins have retired their contentious nickname and logo after decades of objection and a recent uproar triggered by nationwide social protests, the Indians appear to be the next major sports franchise in line to change their identity. CLEVELAND (AP) — The spotlight for change is shining on the Cleveland Indians. Now that the NFL’s Washington Redskins have retired their contentious nickname and logo after decades of objection and amid a nationwide movement calling for racial justice, the Indians appear to be the next major sports franchise that might assume a new identity. Along with the Indians, who recently announced they are in the early stages of evaluating a name change for the ﬁrst time in 105 years, the Atlanta Braves, Chicago Blackhawks and Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs are among those facing backlash along with the potential of sponsors pulling their ﬁnancial support. For some, the time has come for widespread changes to sports nicknames, mascots and symbols as the country reckons with its legacy of racism. “I understand people aren’t willing to change or so quickly, or they’re hoping this moment is going to pass. It’s not,” said activist Frances Danger, who is Muscogee (Creek) and Seminole from Oklahoma. ”And now that we’ve gotten what we needed on the Redskins side, we’re going to start working on the rest of them. We’re not going to let up.” On Monday, Washington announced it was dropping a nickname that had been in place since 1933 and had grown into an embarrassing scar for the NFL franchise. The team buckled under ﬁnancial pressure from sponsors including FedEx, the shipping giant and naming rights holder to the teams’s stadium, as well as other groups. Indians manager Terry Francona acknowledged having “mixed emotions” about the Redskins’ situation. “I’m glad to see that they’re acting on it,” he said Monday night. “Also, I think that it was probably ﬁnancially driven. … You can’t always do things when the timing is right, when it’s convenient. That’s kind of how I feel about this. I hope that our organization will lead as opposed to follow.” While the debate over the Redskins’ nickname was waged for years, the drastic change came just two weeks after owner Dan Snyder, who once said he would never change the team’s moniker, said the See TEAMS | 8 Major league teams try to ramp up the competition in camp By Steven Wine AP Sports Writer Well-traveled Milwaukee Brewers ﬁrst basemanoutﬁelder Logan Morrison ﬁgures it will be easy for him to adjust to games without spectators this season. “I played for the Rays and the Marlins, so I’m used to it,” Morrison said. The Brewers and other major league teams worked out again Monday in mostly empty ballparks, mindful the long-awaited start to the season is barely a week away and fans won’t be coming. So teams are trying as best they can to ramp up the competitiveness of summer camps conducted in isolation. Several teams announced upcoming exhibition games, including Houston at Kansas City, Kansas City at St. Louis, and Cleveland against Pittsburgh. The Brewers will play intrasquad games for several nights starting Tuesday and are dubbing them the Blue and Gold World Series, a nod to manager Craig Counsell’s alma mater, Notre Dame. Catcher Omar Narvaez and outﬁelder Avisail Garcia will draft teams for matchups designed to approximate the intensity of regular-season games. “It’s important for the players to understand the dial can’t go from one to 10, from camp to opening day,” Counsell said. “That’s an important part of how we’re trying to prepare them.” Minnesota Twins center ﬁelder Byron Buxton was going all-out in an intrasquad game at Target Field when he suffered an injury. The oft-injured Buxton was tracking a long ﬂy by Nelson Cruz when he hurt his left leg, and he had to be carted off the ﬁeld. Meanwhile, the virus continued to complicate preparations. St. Louis Cardinals reliever Jordan Hicks opted out of playing this season, citing underlying health concerns. He was diagnosed in high school with Type 1 diabetes. Manager David Ross and ﬁve other undisclosed tier one individuals sat out a Chicago Cubs workout as a precaution while awaiting virus test results. Tier one includes players, coaches, physicians and others. Cubs catcher Willson Contreras complimented the protective measures being taken by the team and MLB. “I don’t think that I’m at risk inside the ballpark,” Contreras said. “Walking the streets, that’s the one place that I don’t feel safe.” All-Star outﬁelder Charlie Blackmon, the ﬁrst major league player known to have tested positive for the coronavirus, returned to the Colorado Rockies for his ﬁrst workout after being cleared to rejoin his teammates. “I feel great. I have felt that way for at least a couple of weeks now,” Blackmon said before taking batting and ﬁelding practice at Coors Field. “It’s nice to be back,” he added. “I was getting kind of bored sitting there in the basement in quarantine by myself.” Blackmon said he was only mildly affected for about a day and a half by the virus that has killed more than 130,000 Americans and claimed more than a half-million lives worldwide. He said he was “blindsided” by the positive test result and has no idea how he contracted COVID19 after taking all the usual precautions with his family: sheltering at home, social distancing and wearing a mask out in public. But he said he was fortunate his symptoms weren’t even as bad as the ﬂu and he hopes to be ready for the July 24 opener at Texas. Los Angeles Angels left-hander Patrick Sandoval also rejoined his team after contracting the virus See CAMP | 8 Darron Cummings | AP Collin Morikawa chips on the 15th hole during the final round of the Workday Charity Open golf tournament Sunday in Dublin, Ohio. Different tournament for Muirfield Village DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) — The ﬁnal group at the Workday Charity Open was making its way down the 13th fairway when the radio of a tournament ofﬁcial at Muirﬁeld Village crackled to life with what was described as “breaking news.” Everyone within earshot moved closer to the cart waiting for the word. “The milkshake machine has arrived.” Breaking news? Sure. Big news? That depends on access. Milkshakes — buckeye is the most popular ﬂavor — are a tradition at Muirﬁeld Village during the Memorial, served in the clubhouse to players and tournament staff. Except this wasn’t the Memorial. That doesn’t start until this week. It was another example of the lengths to which Muirﬁeld Village has gone to distinguish between two tournaments held on the same golf course in consecutive weeks, the ﬁrst time that has happened on the PGA Tour in 63 years. Collin Morikawa, who won Sunday in a playoff, was sipping on a milkshake as he cradled his trophy and posted on Twitter, “Muirﬁeld Village milkshakes never tasted so good!” That probably was a ﬁgure of speech. This was his ﬁrst time playing the course. How would he know? The real change at Muirﬁeld Village is about far more than milkshakes. The responsibil- ity of creating two tests for a combined 190 players falls largely to Chad Mark, the superintendent for the last three years. There’s enough pressure trying to meet the standards of Jack Nicklaus, who built and nurtured Muirﬁeld Village and twice won his Memorial Tournament. Mark was overseeing a bunker project on the sixth and seventh fairways just under two months ago when tournament director Dan Sullivan told him the PGA Tour was adding a second tournament the week before. The Workday Charity Open replaced the John Deere Classic, which was canceled this year. “We were reshaping bunkers, re-sodding, putting liners in, sand in. We still had dirt on 6 and 7. There wasn’t anything there,” Mark said. “I said to Dan, ‘Have you taken a ride on the front nine?’ Part of the fairway was stripped.” That turned out to be the easy part. The challenge was getting the course ready to handle two full ﬁelds without the turf being battered, without some of the fastest greens on tour being so slick that the grass died before the Memorial, which is one of the premier events on the PGA Tour schedule. That involved the PGA Tour staff, from the rules ofﬁcials who dictate the setup to Thomas Bastis, the tour agronomist working at Muirﬁeld Vil- lage. The idea was to get the green speeds around 11 1/2 on the Stimpmeter, a little faster as the week went on, and then to ramp that up to somewhere over 13 for the Memorial. The rough would be thicker and higher for the Memorial, which is easier to achieve in the spring growing season than the heat of midsummer. The biggest fear was a recent heat wave, which could have risked losing the greens by the second week if the staff wasn’t careful. That turned out ﬁne, and Mark said the course was where he hoped it would be when the ﬁrst event ended. And now? Monday is so critical that tour ofﬁcials were determined to make sure the Workday Charity Open ﬁnished on time, leading to an early start to the ﬁnal round in case of bad weather. It’s not just about the course. Nicklaus runs an old-school event, so the 11 video scoreboards at Muirﬁeld Village were being removed. In their place is the traditional manual white boards behind the greens. All the signage around the tees and greens had to be replaced from Workday to the Memorial. As for the course, Mark said workers would use rakes to ﬂuff up the rough where carts had been driving. The fairways are mowed every day — that also helps smooth out sand-ﬁlled divots for evenness with the fairways. Only a few thick patches of rough are being cut. Otherwise, it’s time to let the course go. The U.S. Open has been moved to Sept. 17-20. Muirﬁeld Village might be fast enough to feel like a U.S. Open. Mark suggested the greens could be at 14 or higher on the Stimpmeter before the week is over. The big concern is too much wind, which would make the greens even faster. But there’s no risk of losing the greens. A major project to redo all 18 greens, re-grass the fairways and update the bunkers is set to begin when the Memorial is over. The course was closed Monday, even to players. That left club ofﬁcials Sunday evening and all of Monday to apply any fertilizers, let the course breathe and “then we’re going to let the thing go and get ﬁrm,” Mark said. The Memorial was supposed to be the ﬁrst PGA Tour event with fans until a spike in coronavirus cases forced tournament ofﬁcials to be cautious and do without. Even with no fans around the 18th green, there will be one other big difference between the two weeks. Nicklaus will be there to congratulate the winner, probably with an air ﬁst pump, and most likely with a milkshake. �COMICS 6 Wednesday, July 15, 2020 BLONDIE Ohio Valley Publishing By Dean Young and John Marshall BEETLE BAILEY By Mort, Greg and Brian Walker Today’s answer CRANKSHAFT By Tom Batiuk HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI AND LOIS By Chris Browne Written By Brian & Greg Walker; Drawn By Chance Browne THE BRILLIANT MIND OF EDISON LEE By John Hambrock BABY BLUES ZITS By Jerry Scott & Rick Kirkman By Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman PARDON MY PLANET CONCEPTIS SUDOKU By Vic Lee by Dave Green %\�'DYH�*UHHQ � By Hilary Price � � � � � � � � � � � �'LIILFXOW\�/HYHO By Bil and Jeff Keane �� OH-70192082 D R TH 1 ER GUA LIFETIME WARRANTY 15 OFF AND!
