Kasich visits Rio Grande, discusses array of issues By Amber Gillenwater mdtnews@mydailytribune. com RIO GRANDE — Speaking to a small crowd of supporters gathered in the rotunda of the Bob Evans Farms Hall on the campus of the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College on Friday, Governor John Kasich discussed the importance of preserving southern Ohio values and creating local jobs. “We need to make this part of Ohio business friendly. We need to control our costs. We need to control our own destiny, and we need to think, everyday, about what creative thing can we do to give somebody a job,” Kasich said. “You give them a job, the family is healthier, the prospect of drug abuse or alcohol and substance abuse is lower, and we need to fight to preserve the values that we have in southern Ohio because, in my opinion, they are precious, absolutely precious.” Kasich outlined these values and their importance By Brian J.

RACINE — “Home National Bank has always been involved in the community, and we see opening a food pantry collection center here as one more way we can help,” said Bill Nease, president. As a kickoff to his announcement of the new collection center in Racine, an extension to the Meigs Cooperative Parish’s food pantry, Nease presented a $1,000 check to Alva Clark, Parish director. “Teaming up with the Parish assures us that the food we collect will get to the families who need it. With one out of every four families nationally struggling to put food on the table, think about how many of our local children must be going to bed hungry every night,” Nease commented. He said the Bank will be doing quarterly food drives throughout the year and that he’s looking for the same support from residents with the food parish program as they have always given to other community programs. The bank is inviting area residents, as well as youth and adult organizations and business and professional groups, to get involved to “Stop Hunger at Home” the theme of the bank’s pantry program. Clark said the support comes at a very good time. Funding from outside sources is decreasing just as the need of families for food is increasing. He said a year ago 48 to 50 came in every month for food but that number over the past year has now grown to about 140. Gallipolis Trick -or-Treat times set Tribune Staff Report mdtnews@mydailytribune. com GALLIPOLIS — Law enforcement officials recently announced that Trick-or-Treat times have been set for Gallipolis. Trick-or-Treat will be held between 5:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, October 27 within in the city of Gallipolis and surrounding areas and from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in Crown City. The department also offered the following tips to make this Halloween’s festivities safe for everyone: Before Halloween: Plan costumes that are bright and reflective. Make sure that shoes fit well and that costumes are short enough to prevent tripping, entanglement or contact with flame. Consider adding reflective tape or striping to costumes and trick-or-treat bags for greater visibility. Secure emergency identification (name, address, phone number) discreetly within Halloween attire or on a bracelet. As a mask can limit or block eyesight, consider non-toxic or hypoallergenic makeup or a decorative hat as a safe alternative. When shopping for costumes, wigs and accessories, purchase only those with a label indicating they are flame resistant. Think twice before using simulated knives, guns or swords. If such props must be used, be certain See Trick -or-Treat, A6 ATHENS — The Athens County Grand Jury has indicted a Gallipolis man in the alleged rape of an Ohio University student, a case that has involved law enforcement agencies from Gallipolis to El Paso, Texas. Last week, the Ohio University police department reported the arrest of Levi Canterbury, 21, in the student’s alleged rape. Canterbury allegedly picked up the female student on Sept. 15, drove her to an Athens parking lot and raped her in his car, according to a university press release. Canterbury was indicted on two counts of rape, and is in the Southeastern Ohio Regional Jail in Nelsonville. He made an initial appearance in Athens County Municipal Court prior to the grand jury’s return of an indictment against him, and his bond was set at $200,000. He denied the allegations against him in that initial hearing. Canterbury is not a university student. He was served in El Paso, Tex. with the original complaint against him and was arrested, and waived extradition. The Athens County Prosecuting Attorney said Canterbury was serving in the National Guard there. The alleged victim in the case notified OU police that she had been picked up by a man after she became lost leaving a party in Athens. She said the man offered to assist her but instead took her to the parking lot, raped her and then dropped her off on Court Street in downtown Athens. Police executed a search warrant on Canterbury’s vehicle in Gallipolis. An Athens newspaper reported last week that Canterbury himself had called Athens County 911 to report he had picked up an intoxicated woman and later dropped her off. He said he noticed she was bleeding when she got out of his car, and had left blood in his car seat. Prosecuting Attorney Keller Blackburn told the newspaper he believes Canterbury’s allegations are false, and that he only pretended to help the woman in order to commit the crime. He said he would request a continuation of Canterbury’s $200,000 bond when the defendant appears in Athens County Common Pleas Court for arraignment next week. Authorities have not reported whether DNA or other evidence was found in Canterbury’s car. Investigation into the alleged rape has taken in several regional law enforcement agencies, including police with the university and Athens city, police and fire personnel in Gallipolis, the Athens County prosecutor and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation.The U.S. Marshal and officials in El Paso County, Tex. have also worked on the investigation and arrest. �Sunday, October 16, 2011 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis Sunday Times Sentinel • Page A2 Reconciling old friends Gallia County Dear Dr. Brothers: When I was younger, two of my best friends had a falling-out, and they haven’t been friends since. I’ve stayed in touch with both of them, and when I recently tried to get our old group back together, both of them were resistant because they didn’t want to see each other or have anything to do with one another. To me, it seems really childish and immature, but they can’t let go of their old grudges. What can I do to help them get along? — G.H. Dear G.H.: Unfortunately, when it comes to old friends and holding grudges, there’s not always a lot you can do. Obviously this was something serious enough to make them sacrifice their friendship. You can appeal to their better judgment as responsible adults now, but sometimes those slights from the past can continue to hurt for years. The best you might be able to do is to persuade them to at least tolerate each other enough that the rest of your old friends can have the pleasure of seeing them again. Dragging out sordid details of past offenses is never productive, so rather than talking about the reasons for their falling out in the first place, try to have them both look at the bright side of putting the past behind them. If you’re on good terms with both of them, it can be hard to try to start sorting things out, because you don’t want to risk taking sides in a petty argument. As long as you Dr. Joyce Brothers can convince both of them that it’s not a bad thing that you’re friends with the other, then they might be able to see the benefit of at least calling a truce for a little while so you can reunite the group. This doesn’t mean that they’ll ever necessarily be friends again, but if they can simply be cordial to one another, it’s a good first step. Just keep reminding them of the good friends they’ve each given up only because they want to hold their grudges. *** Dear Dr. Brothers: After going on a diet recently, I heard that eating while you’re watching television can make you gain weight. I live on my own, and often will eat dinner in front of the television if I’m eating by myself. I’m still eating healthy foods and controlling my portions, but now I feel bad every time I want to eat dinner with one of my favorite shows on. Why is eating while watching television so bad for you, and do I really have to quit? — F.S. Dear F.S.: The main reason that watching television while eating can be detrimental to your weightloss plans is because eating while distracted — whether it’s by television, driving or even at work — can lead you to overeat. Studies show that people eat 40 percent more when watching television than when concentrating on their food. Additionally, an important part of eating is enjoying your meal — if you’re barely tasting your food because you’re so absorbed in your favorite show, what’s the point of eating at all? Lastly, eating while watching television can become a habit — so that every time you turn on the TV you reach for a snack — and this can send your diet way off course. It’s important to remember, though, that moderation is key when it comes to dieting. If you love eating dinner while watching a particular show, you should feel free to do so — just try to avoid mindlessly snacking an hour later when you settle in for the next program. You shouldn’t feel bad about those activities that are part of your daily routine. So take a good look at what it is that you enjoy about your TV-anddinner routine, and see if there’s some way you can get the same pleasure out of a healthier alternative. If not, so be it — don’t waste your time worrying about something you’re not going to change.

Those lyrics from the classic Beatles tune (and also the theme from the TV show The Wonder Years), comes to mind when I think of the special group of community-minded individuals who, collectively, are the Friends of Bossard Library. The Library will be spending the week of October 1622, 2011 celebrating its Friends group as part of the fifth annual celebration of National Friends of Libraries Week. The Friends of Bossard Library have been established for over thirty years. The members of this volunteer group are dedicated to helping make the Library the best it can be. Since the 1980’s, the Friends have conducted many fundraising activities to benefit the library, as well as helping to focus By Debbie Saunders Bossard Memorial Library Director, Gallipolis public attention on library services and needs. Friends of the Library provide for the library and community in a variety of ways, as they not only support and encourage library programs and services that are in need for our community but also provide sponsorship for library programs such as the Library’s upcoming “Boo Bash”, slated for Oct. 29. The Friends actively volunteer their time to assist with the bi-annual Friends of the Library book sales, as well as many other special library programs. The great Ohio State Football coach Woody Hayes is often quoted as saying, “You win with people”. Certainly, any organization is only as successful as the people within it. As the Library Director, I am most appreciative of the support that our Friends of the Library provide to our Library staff and community. The Friends of Bossard Library are conducting a membership drive and are steadily gaining new members. If you are interested in being a part of an energetic, committed group of supporters who believe that an excellent library makes a difference in their lives and in the community, I encourage you to attend a Friends of the Library meeting, regularly scheduled for the third Tuesday of each month at 5:30 at Library. After all, the Library can never have too many “friends”. Community Calendar Card Showers ^ BIDWELL — Rebecca Boggs will celebrate her 90th birthday on Oct 17th.

Loaded grain trucks and grain hoppers pulled by tractors need space to turn and assured distance to stop. Ohio’s Agriculture Director James Zehringer and Ohio State Highway Patrol Superintendent Colonel John Born are asking motorists and farmers to use caution when driving in October and November. Motorists need to slow down and pass slow moving farm equipment only when safe. Don’t cross the double yellow lines to pass. Wet weather and late field plantings have delayed harvest so many part-time and full time farmers will be harvesting whenever they can get into the field. Hauling of grain at dusk is extremely hazardous so as you drive home from work have some patience and slow down. Farmers should have proper lighting and signage reflecting their slow moving status. Educational classes have been provided to assist the farmer in preparing for the harvest season. Farmers are asked to check their lights and signage before they leave the farm compound to ensure everything is in working order. Ohio State Highway Patrol Superintendent, Colonel John Born, cautions motorists to “be aware that more tractors and slow moving vehicles will be on the roadway over the next couple of months- use extra caution and be patient.” Do your part in preventing accidents and ensuring a safe harvest season. *** Want to reduce insect and disease problems in your garden?

Ohio Briefs Court: Ohio’s new US House map can go to voters COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The state Supreme Court says a bill setting new U.S. House districts in Ohio can be put before voters despite efforts by Republicans to block a referendum. The court on Friday ordered Secretary of State Jon Husted to accept signatures submitted by Democrats trying to get a repeal issue on the 2012 ballot. Senate Republicans had appropriated funds to boards of elections in the bill, an effort to make the law effective immediately and block referendum. Bills including money for “current” government expenses can go into effect immediately, but the court ruled the appropriations in the redistricting bill don’t meet required criteria. The head of liberal policy group ProgressOhio says the decision bolsters Ohioans. A Husted spokesman says the ruling throws a monkey wrench in deadlines to file to run for congress.

Members of the group calling their protest Occupy Cincinnati had received $105 tickets each of the four previous nights. The Cincinnati Enquirer reports it’s unclear why no citations were issued Thursday night. Police indicated it was on orders from the mayor’s office. The demonstration is similar to the “occupations” at New York’s Wall Street and in other cities. Businesses near downtown Cincinnati’s Piatt Park complain that they’re being hurt by the ongoing protest. A caterer tells WKRC-TV that brides who get married at the nearby Cincinnati Club like to have wedding photos taken in the park, but now there are tents and tarps to ruin the view. Calif. company issues lettuce recall over listeria SALINAS, Calif.

DeWine on Friday said the group submitted a fair and truthful statement to describe the issue on the ballot, as well as the required 1,000 valid voter signatures. The proposed “Ohio Alternative Treatment Amendment” faces review by the Ohio Ballot Board before supporters can start gathering signatures that would secure placement on the ballot. Issues require about 385,000 signatures to make the ballot. The coalition is one of two groups trying to put separate medical marijuana amendments before voters. DeWine in September rejected a proposal by the Ohio Coalition for Medical Compassion, saying the group failed to properly summarize the issue for the ballot. Bill would require Ohio lawmakers be drug-tested COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio Democratic lawmaker is proposing to drug-test elected officials, in response to a Republicanbacked bill calling for drugtesting of welfare recipients. Rep. Robert Hagan’s bill would require statewide officeholders, legislators, members of Gov. John Kasich’s jobs board and recipients of federal bailout money to pay for their testing for un-prescribed pharmaceuticals, illegal drugs and alcohol. Officials testing positive would have to undergo treatment or be booted from office. Hagan says it’s hypocritical for lawmakers to say they’re protecting taxpayer money by testing welfare recipients for drugs if they themselves won’t submit to testing. The proposal would also give voters a means to kick state politicians out of office by submitting petitions and holding special elections. Messages seeking comment were left for Republican leaders in the House and Senate. Livestock Report The Jackson County Regional Livestock Market recently reported the following livestock prices.

VITA and TCE volunteers provide free tax preparation for seniors, military personnel and taxpayers with lowto moderate-incomes (generally, less than $50,000) who need help filing their tax returns. VITA and TCE sites are typically located in community centers, libraries, schools, shopping malls and other convenient locations and are normally open evenings and weekends during the tax filing season. VITA and TCE volunteers come from all walks of life and backgrounds, and include professionals, retirees, college students, IRS employees and others motivated by a desire to help their communities. Prior tax preparation training is not required – partnering with local nonprofit, community and governmental organizations, the IRS provides free training and all needed materials to volunteers. A variety of volunteer positions are available, to include tax preparers, greeters, recruiters and equipment coordinators. The recruitment effort in counties throughout central and southeastern Ohio actively kicks off Monday, Oct. 17, with a special event for federal workers in Columbus; a volunteer recruitment kick-off event for federal workers in Cleveland was held Oct. 11. More than 88,000 volunteers made a difference by preparing 3 million-plus returns at thousands of sites nationwide earlier this year. That figure includes hundreds of Ohio volunteers in Gallia, Guernsey, Harrison, Hocking, Jackson, Athens, Jefferson, Knox, and other central and southeastern counties. The volunteers put their tax knowledge to use, helping community taxpayers reduce their tax liability by identifying and claiming tax credits and deductions that might otherwise have been overlooked, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). Recruiting is now underway for volunteer opportunities for the 2012 filing season. Training classes generally start in December. Training and certification are conducted at convenient locations throughout the state and online. For more information, prospective volunteers can start by visiting www.IRS. gov (search “Volunteer”) for program information, then e-mail TaxVolunteer@IRS. gov. Ohio district proposes shorter school week LONDON, Ohio (AP) — A central Ohio school district is proposing a four-day school week as a remedy for its budget problems, an idea that would need a change in state law. Schools Superintendent Steve Allen in London tells The Columbus Dispatch that shortening the week would save the district at least $245,000 a year on utility, busing, personnel and other costs. The school system has a tax measure on the Nov. 8 ballot that would cost the owner of a $100,000 home an additional $260 per year. The school board is prepared to make new cuts if the levy fails. A bill in the Ohio House would allow districts more flexibility in scheduling. The National Conference of State Legislatures says more than 20 states already have some school districts on four-day weeks. Need to advertise?

Ave Gallipolis 740-446-0332 topefurniture.com �The Daily Sentinel Opinion Page A4 Sunday, October 16, 2011 Focusing on jobs this fall How to moderate the With many people who are unemployed through no fault of their own, finding ways to spur job growth in Ohio and in our region continues to be my focus. A constituent recently called my office and inquired about what I am doing to increase job opportunities for my district. This is a highly pertinent question, and I decided to devote this column to answering it. Our area’s economy has always been based on the use of local natural resources including the Ohio River, timber, coal, agriculture and natural gas. In the last few months, I have held two summits with legislators to promote Ohio coal and the Ohio River. This has generated inquiries, opening up possible markets that will lead to more jobs in the future. In turn, these developments encourage the state to implement policies supporting job creation in these potential growth sectors. Along the same lines, I have supported legislation that will help Ohio utilize its natural gas and oil reserves, which is projected to bring thousands of employment opportunities and major investment to our borders. Furthermore, I act as a liaison between the timber industry and the Ohio Department of Natural Resources to promote responsible By Rep. John Carey 87th House District, Ohio stewardship of the timber in our area, while at the same time creating jobs. I also work with the Ohio Farm Bureau and the Ohio State University to promote the growth of agricultural jobs in our region. This is a very important endeavor that presents a lot opportunity for Southern Ohio. In other areas, I work with individual businesses, from an Amish bakery to a large manufacturing facility, to help maintain and grow businesses. Additionally, I co-sponsored legislation which addresses the need for environmental regulation reform in Ohio. One business that I know of recently laid people off because of environmental requirements that are costly and have minimal impact on the environment. The Lt. Governor is leading the effort for responsible regulations without needless com- pliance costs. There have even been job creation developments this very week. The Common Sense Initiative Office has announced help for small businesses by lowering Bureau of Workers’ Compensation rates, which ultimately means more jobs. Later in the week, I am meeting with Fluor-Daniel to market our region through their economic development plan. I support the loan guarantee of the uranium enrichment plant in Piketon, which could lead to thousands of jobs, as well as development of nuclear power on the site. Finally, I have personally contacted businesses and asked them to look at our area. Each county now has an industrial park, leading to marketing opportunities and the chance to construct buildings in the future. This has already led to many jobs being created. Through all of these initiatives, there is always more to do. Hopefully, JobsOhio will only build and expand on these opportunities. Just like the constituent who contacted my office, I also get frustrated with the troubled economy, but I will keep my focus on getting our citizens back to work and giving my area and the State of Ohio the best chance to be prosperous. power of lobbyists There is a fundamental question raised by lobbying of the Congress. It is this: Can we temper its excesses without destroying its usefulness as a valued component of the system? There are roughly 13,000 registered lobbyists in Washington at the moment, and they spend huge sums of money on their work — $3.5 billion last year, according to the Center on Responsive Politics. This money goes into campaign contributions, independent election expenditures, questionable grassroots campaigns, wooing legislators with golf tours, cruises, gifts to favorite charities and the like. It has a direct impact not only on how members of Congress look at issues, but also on what issues they decide to look at in the first place. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that it can skew what takes place on Capitol Hill toward the interests of those who can provide this money, and away from those who cannot. Yet lobbyists are also indispensable to lawmaking. Most are principled people who know that their word is their bond. When done well, lobbying helps the governing process work. The best of its practitioners know that what lawmakers need is information — straightforward, understandable, and accurate. Lobbyists help members of Congress understand the issues before them and gauge how a given piece of legislation will affect the various constituencies affected by it. Members of Congress are so pressed for time and confronted by so many varied matters of importance that they have no choice but to rely on lobbyists to help them sort out both the facts and the consequences of the decisions they have to make. So as a nation, we are left with a challenge. How do we counter-balance the impact of all the money that lobbyists wield, so that Congress pays attention to the voices of ordinary Americans and serves the country’s best interests? In other words, how do we safeguard what’s good about lobbying — its role in providing information — while moderating the perceived or real consequences of the billions of dollars that lobbyists spend? This is by no means im- possible. Lobbyists are already regulated, but there’s room for improvement. One important measure that could be put in place immediately would be complete, real-time disclosure of lobbying contacts with legislators and regulators. There are no technical reasons this can’t be done, only the objections of politicians. The more sunlight on the process, the more the voters will know about lobbyists and the issues they advocate. I’d even go further: I favor the fairly radical steps of prohibiting members of Congress from accepting contributions from firms that lobby them, and banning lobbyists from contributing to members they lobby. As reformers argue, it’s fine for lobbyists to plead their case, but they shouldn’t be able to pay off the jury. I’m not so naive as to believe that either of these measures will pass anytime soon — or perhaps ever. Lee Hamilton is Director of the Center on Congress at Indiana University. He was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives for 34 years. powers.” Instead, “the United States should always retain military supremacy.” As president, he would not “wave the white flag of surrender” but, rather, “devote” himself to building “an American century.” As he explained: “The twenty-first century can and must be an American century.” He would “not surrender America’s role in the world… . If you do not want America to be the strongest nation on earth, I am not your president.” And how, exactly, would this American century be achieved? To provide the major pillar for the new order, Romney would “reverse President Obama’s massive defense cuts.” (The fact that there were no defense cuts during the Obama years—indeed, that Obama took office with an annual Defense Department budget of $513 billion and, as of September 30 of this year, had an annual Defense Department budget of $530 billion, plus increased spending for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan— seems not to have thrown Romney off stride.) In the production of new U.S. warships alone, Romney promised to increase the annual number from nine to fifteen. He would also dramatically upgrade the (still unworkable) national missile defense system. “In an American century,” he argued, America needed “the strongest military in the world.” Of course, this military behemoth (currently costing almost as much as the military forces of all other nations combined) would have lots of work to do. In Afghanistan, for example, Romney would call a halt to plans for U.S. military withdrawal. Meanwhile, he would “speak with our generals in the field, and receive the best recommendation of our military commanders” as to “the force level necessary to secure our gains and complete our mission successfully.” That might require a lot of troops, a lot of money, and a lot of time. Is the world ready for Romney? By Lee H. Hamilton Director of the Center on Congress, Indiana University Is Mitt Romney ready for the world? By Dr. Lawrence S. Wittner Emeritus Professor of History State University of New York/ Albany If current polls are correct, Mitt Romney seems likely to become the 2012 Republican presidential candidate and the next president of the United States. Therefore, we should carefully examine his first major foreign and military policy address—delivered on October 7 at the Citadel, in Charleston, South Carolina—and ponder the question: Is Mitt Romney ready for the world? Romney began his speech with a heavy dose of fear. Iran, he warned, could well become “a fully activated nuclear weapons state, threatening its neighbors, [and] dominating the world’s oil supply.” Indeed, “Iran’s suicidal fanatics could blackmail the world.” In Afghanistan, the Taliban might well “find a path back to power,” with the country sinking “back into the medieval terrors of fundamentalist rule.” Pakistan’s instability could end up placing nuclear weapons “in the hands of Islamic jihadists,” while “the malign socialism” of Venezuela and Cuba could “undermine the prospects of democracy” in Latin America. Then, of course, there are the heavy dancers. China’s leaders could well take that nation down The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

You don’t lose more jobs than every other state in America except for two and not find yourself in deep trouble, but I believe we are moving in the right direction … I think people around the country are beginning to say, ‘there’s something really cool going on in Ohio’ — but we have a ways to go.” According to Kasich, an example of a business that has retained its link to southern Ohio is Bob Evans Farms, Inc. “I have to tell you, Bob Evans was thinking about moving out of Ohio,” he said. “We got our people — they know how to answer the phone, get in their car and drive to see Steve Davis [Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Bob Evans] … We got to Steve and we figured out a way in which we could communicate with him. … We were able to do that and not only is Bob Evans staying, but Bob Evans is rebuilding themselves. They are modernizing their restaurants — I know because I am a chicken noodles and green beans guy. I know what’s going on in Bob Evans because I go there. They are also making a significant investment down here and rebuilding their operation.” Kasich also discussed the connection between the network of community colleges and their role in working with employers and training the work force. According to Kasich, approximately 84,000 job openings have recently become available in Ohio, and the need for skilled workers is ever prevalent. “There are at least 84,000 open positions that are not being filled [in Ohio]. Is that shocking? We have over nine percent unemployment, and we’ve got these job openings,” Kasich commented. “There are two or three reasons why this is the case. One is, we have not trained the workers that we need for the job openings that exist. … What’s happening to some degree is we have a mismatch between the jobs that are there and education system and whether the education system is educating people for jobs or whether they are just giving them a degree. The reason you get education is so you can get a job, not so you can get a degree. The bottom line is, these community colleges are going to be asked very shortly to work together to reach out to businesses.” Kasich also discussed the prescription drug abuse epiemic and how this can be directly related to the loss of jobs throughout Ohio. “This is a plague and I, in fact, had a cabinet meeting today, and we are going to make some legislative changes to the laws in this state that have not been tough enough on people that want to use our beautiful state of Ohio as a thoroughfare to distribute their drugs,” Kasich said. “We believe that if we don’t get our communities healed or at least healing, it blows a hole in what we are trying do down here. … Some of this [drug abuse] comes from the fact that people are poor. So, it kind of gets all the way back, doesn’t it, to the issue of jobs.” The governor also discussed his stance on Issue 2 — the issue on the November’s ballot in relation to the repeal of Senate Bill 5. “This [Issue 2] was part of our agenda as well, and why, particularly in an area like this. Think about a single mom with a couple of kids. She has health care that is probably expensive. I don’t know how good it is. Does she have a guaranteed pension? Of course, she doesn’t. Does she have a 401k? Maybe,” Kasich said. “What we are asking people to do is to not ask that woman to pay for her own health insurance, her own 401 k and maintain her family, and also pay for somebody else who doesn’t pay for her own health care.” According to Kasich, this scenario results in the raising of taxes which further results in the unwillingness of companies to locate in a region with higher taxes. “As a result of this, if local communities cannot control their costs, then they will keep raising taxes,” Kasich said. “If I want to get a company in southern Ohio and you keep jacking up your taxes down here, how am I going to get them to come here? Seriously. … This gets down to an issue of fairness between people who pay for their own health care and their own 401k — because pensions don’t even exist much anymore — versus people who do not want to pay for their own health care and their guaranteed pension.” According to Kasich, Issue 2 would also end “binding arbitration” and allow local government entities to set their own pay scale for their workers based upon their own budgets. Also, Kasich reported that much misconception is present concerning Issue 2 and its affect upon local unions. “This is not anything against a union. You need to have them. There are times when they are necessary. When they are not keeping in mind costs and all that, it becomes a real problem,” Kasich said. “The other thing is, there are people that are worried about this, I get that. They are not paying anything and now they are told that they’re going to pay something and they don’t like it. … Many of our teachers have been frightened, being told that they are going to lose their pensions — it’s just all nonsense. What we want to do with teachers is, here’s a radical idea, if you’re a good teacher, you ought to get paid more.” Trick -or- Treat From Page A1 they do not appear authentic and are soft and flexible to prevent injury. Obtain flashlights with fresh batteries for all children and their escorts. Plan ahead to use only battery-powered lanterns or chemical lightsticks in place of candles in decorations and costumes. Teach children their home phone number and to how to call 911 (or their local emergency number) if they have an emergency or become lost. Remind them that 911 can be dialed free from any phone. Review with your children the principle of “stop, drop and roll” should their clothes catch on fire. Openly discuss appropriate and inappropriate behavior at Halloween time. Consider purchasing individually packaged healthy food alternatives (or safe nonfood treats) for those who visit your home. Take extra effort to eliminate tripping hazards on your porch and walkway. Check around your property for flower pots, low tree limbs, support wires or garden hoses that may prove hazardous to young children rushing from house to house. Before nightfall on Halloween: A good meal prior to parties and trick-or-treating will discourage youngsters from filling up on Halloween treats. Consider fire safety when decorating. Do not overload elec- trical outlets with holiday lighting or special effects and do not block exit doors. While children can help with the fun or designing a Jack O’ Lantern, leave the carving to adults. Always keep Jack O’ Lanterns and hot electric lamps far away from drapes, decorations, flammable materials or areas where children and pets will be standing or walking. Plan and review with your children, the route and behavior that is acceptable to you. Do not permit children to bicycle, roller-blade or skateboard. Agree on a specific time when revelers must return home. Along with flashlights for all, older children and escorts should wear a wristwatch and carry coins or a cell phone for non-emergency phone calls. Confine, segregate or otherwise prepare household pets for an evening of frightful sights and sounds. Be sure that all dogs and cats are wearing collars and proper identification tags. Consult your veterinarian for further advice. Remind all household drivers to remain cautious and drive slowly throughout the community. Adult party-goers should establish and reward a designated driver. When Trick-or-Treating: A parent or responsible adult should always accompany young children on their neighborhood rounds. Sunday Times Sentinel • Page A5 Remind Trick-or-Treaters: By using a flashlight, they can see and be seen by others; stay in a group, walk slowly and communicate where you are going; only trick-or-treat in well-known neighborhoods at homes that have a porch light on; remain on well-lit streets and always use the sidewalk; cross the street only at corners and well-marked crosswalks; if no sidewalk is available; walk at the farthest edge of the roadway facing traffic; never cut across yards or use alleys; always walk and never run across a street; never enter a stranger’s home or car for a treat; obey all traffic and pedestrian regulations; only cross the street as a group in established crosswalks (as recognized by local custom); remove any mask or item that will limit eyesight before crossing the street, driveway or alley; do not assume the right-of-way, motorists may have trouble seeing Trick-or-Treaters. Just because one car stops, this does not mean that others will; never consume unwrapped food items or open beverages that may be offered; No treats are to be eaten until they are thoroughly checked by an adult at home; law enforcement authorities should be notified immediately of any suspicious or unlawful activity.

Take Your Dog to Work Day has come and gone, and I didn’t remember to take little Lindy to the office with me. But then all she would have done anyway would be to curl up under my desk and sleep. Now that she’s 16 years old, she doesn’t hear very well, doesn’t see much either, and sleeps a lot. *** If you have fond memories of your days at the old Pomeroy Senior High School building and dread the day it will be sold and torn down, there is a small way you can preserve the memory. Buy one of the original Cat’s Meow replicas which the Pomeroy Alumni Association had made and is selling for $15 each. You can sit it on a shelf and let it be a constant reminder of your happy days at PHS. *** How nice of Paulette Harrison and Jeannie Owen to again this year offer Zumba classes at the Mulberry Community Center every Tuesday night for a sack of food.

However, the experts who write for home beautiful magazines are already giving advice on what’s in and what’s not when it comes to selecting paint colors. Bold colors now used in accent decorating are out and light more subdued ones are in. No more of that rich reddish brown or dark forest green even on one wall. Go for one color, cream, a pale yellow or a light green is their advice. Even clothing is predicted to undergo a drastic change next year. Fashion designers predict that bold colors in creative designs will fade away and soft neutral colors in more classic design will make the scene. The word from those who know about these things is that in 2012 everything changes. I hope that includes the economy. *** This week Pomeroy Mayor John Musser had a word for those who put political signs along the walking path in the village. “If you put them up, we will take them down.” with dosages and preferred pharmacy, and information on pension, Veteran’s Administration (VA) or other medical care benefits they receive. Recipients need to be aware that the Medicare annual enrollment period begins one month earlier and ends three weeks earlier than in previous years. “Now is the time for Ohioans with Medicare to start reviewing their health care and prescription drug needs and pairing them with the most suitable coverage, and OSHIIP can assist in that process,” said OSHIIP director Mary Taylor in a news release about the program. During the enrollment period beneficiaries can select one of several health coverage options: 1) Original Medicare paired with a stand-alone Part D prescription drug plan and/or a Medicare Supplement plan. 2) A Medicare Advantage Plan, which provides comprehensive health benefits including drug coverage. 3) Or, determine if their existing coverage will meet their health insurance needs for the upcoming year. Those receiving Medicare are encouraged to keep three things in mind, convenience, cost and coverage. It’s important to consider the convenience of being able to use local pharmacies, to take into account all out-of-pocket expenses, and to be sure the plan covers drugs on your list of prescriptions. Check-up events are being held in counties all over the state. The emphasis of a session, according to Taylor’s release is on getting information on recent changes, including such things as new Medicare deductibles, co-pay, and co-insurance amounts; Medicare Advantage and Part D plan options for next year, and financial assistance programs. By Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@mydailysentinel.com conditions fast-tracked By Marcus Geiger Social Security District Manager, Gallipolis OHIO VALLEY — Here’s some important news if you’re applying for Social Security disability benefits for yourself or a loved one. There are 100 conditions which qualify for an expedited process known as Compassionate Allowances. Compassionate Allowances, which began in December 2007, are a way to quickly identify diseases and other medical conditions that, by definition, meet Social Security’s standards for disability benefits. “We have an obligation to award benefits quickly to people whose medical conditions are so serious they clearly meet our disability standards,” said Michael J. Astrue, Commissioner of Social Security. “We are now able to do precisely that for 100 severe conditions.” The Compassionate Allowances conditions are developed from information received at public outreach hearings, and from the Social Security and Disability Determination Service communities, medical and scientific experts, and the National Institutes of Health. We also consider which conditions are most likely to meet our definition of disability. “By definition, these illnesses are so severe that we don’t need to fully develop the applicant’s work history to make a decision,” said Commissioner Astrue. “As a result, Social Security has eliminated this part of the application process for people who have a condition on the list, and we can award benefits much more quickly.” The Compassionate Allowances initiative is one of two parts of the agency’s fast-track system for certain disability claims. When combined with the Quick Disability Determination (QDD) process, Social Security last year approved the claims of more than 100,000 people, usually in less than two weeks. This year, the agency expects to fast-track nearly 150,000 cases. Under QDD, a predictive model analyzes specific elements of data within the electronic claims file to identify claims where there is a high potential the claimant is disabled and where evidence of the person’s allegations can be quickly and easily obtained.

Gallipolis Career College graduation held GALLIPOLIS — Gallipolis Career College graduation ceremonies were held recently for all students who completed their course of study during the 2010-2011 school year. The ceremony took place at the Faith Baptist Church Family Ministry Center located on Jackson Pike in Rodney. GCC history instructor William Plants opened the ceremony with the invocation. Plants then led the audience in the Pledge of Allegiance. After GCC President Robert L. Shirey welcomed the students and guests, Director of Education Bo Shirey introduced the keynote speaker, Ohio State Representative, John Carey. In his address, Rep. Car- ey congratulated the graduates on their accomplishment. He noted the hard work and dedication it takes to pursue a college degree. Carey said his own family experienced the advantages of a career college education as his mother earned her degree from Southeastern Business College. Carey praised the graduates, stating,“Thank you all for the effort you have made. You will make our community stronger. Your family and friends are proud of you, and you are a good example. Because of your achievement, others may have the courage to do the same thing. Take advantage of opportunities, of your vision, and you will be successful. Employers are still looking for good people to work, people with skills. I urge you to also give back to your community. Be involved. Volunteer at your church, your child’s school, or help a neighbor when you can. I volunteered with a State Representative for two years and it led me to an opportunity and the rest of my career. This degree will be yours forever. It can never be taken away from you.” Following Carey’s address, associate degrees and diplomas were awarded by GCC Director Bo Shirey. Plants closed the ceremony with the Benediction, followed by a catered reception (K & L Catering) for graduates and guests.

The 2011 Homecoming game at Southern High School’s Roger Lee Adams Memorial Field started off with the hosts taking a early lead, but 20 unanswered points gave the visiting Waterford Wildcats the win. On a night that was supposed to be about welcoming back alumni and celebrating, the first quarter triumphs seemed to be right in step. On a third a goal from the one yard line, Southern freshman quarterback Tristen Wolfe stretched across the goal line for the opening score. Danny Ramthun added the extra point kick to give the Tornadoes the 7-0 lead at the 7:11 mark of the first quarter. Waterford cut the deficit to one point with a two yard touchdown run by Darek Brown. The two-point conversion attempt failed, allowing Southern to maintain a one point lead.

The game could proved to be costly for both teams as the Marauders lost their outstanding senior Jeffrey Roush and Wellston lost Northwestern recruit Jaylen Prater both with ankle injuries in the fourth period within minutes of each other. Roush was on crutches and in an air cast after the contest, while Prater was transported to the hospital from the field by Wellston EMS. Wellston took the opening kickoff and put together a six play, 52 yard drive with Prater keeping it around left end 26 yards for the score. The extra points were no good, but the Rockets held the early lead at the 9:10 mark of the period. It took the Marauders just 51 seconds to answer that score with a score of their own. On second down, Dillon Boyer found Roush wide open over the middle 77 yards for the score. Charlie Barrett added the extra points and Meigs held the 7-6 lead with 8:19 left in the period. Wellston took the lead midway through the second period. Dakota Brown picked off a Boyer pass to give the host the ball at the Wellston 38. On first down Prater found Austin Craig down the right sideline for a 62 yard touchdown pass. Once again the extra points were no good, but the Golden Rockets took the 12-7 lead into the locker room at the half. Meigs took the second half kickoff and put together a picture perfect 17 play, 66 yard drive capped off when Roush scored from See MEIGS, B4 Dave Harris/photo Meigs’ Charlie Barrett (21) carries the ball during Friday’s game at Wellston. Big second quater lifts Wahama over Rebels, 28-6 White Falcons clinch share of TVC Hocking title By Gary Clark Sports Correspondent MERCERVILLE, Ohio — Unbeaten Wahama scored three unanswered second quarter touchdowns and overcame five turnovers on the night to escape with a 28-6 TVC Hocking Division win Friday evening over the South Gallia Rebels before a standing room only crowd at the Gallia County school. The White Falcons utilized a staunch defensive showing that limited the Rebels to just 85 yards in total offense in recording its seventh win of the year while clinching its second consecutive Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division title. South Gallia failed to sustain any kind of offense save for one series in falling to 6-2 on the 2011 campaign and 5-2 inside conference play. Anthony Grimm ran for 108 yards and a touchdown while Trenton Gibbs scored once on the ground and threw for another as Wahama pulled away from a tight 7-6 affair with three unanswered scores in the second period. The White Falcons welcomed the return of senior wide receiver Isaac Lee who proved to be a difference maker after a two game absence. Lee came up with a trio of pass receptions for 131 yards in addition to 26 yards rushing as Wahama again displayed the ability to score from anywhere on the field with all but one of their four touchdowns coming from long range. South Gallia, despite tallying only 85 yards in total offense made a game of it with its defense with seniors Dalton Matney and Danny Matney displaying incredible defensive efforts for the host Rebels. South Gallia held the potent Wahama offense scoreless in the second half and limited the heralded Falcons well below its 59.0 points per game scoring average. Wahama committed five turnovers on the day with the White Falcons losing a pair of fumbles in addition to having three of its passes picked off. Jacob White and Ethan Spurlock recovered Falcon fumbles while Cory Haner, Dalton Matney and Josh Cooper intercepted WHS aerials. The lone turnover for South Gallia was an interception by the Falcons Matthew Stewart. The White Falcons scored its first touchdown in the final minute of the opening quarter when Trenton Gibbs rolled to his right and carried it into the end zone from six yards out to complete a 94 yard, nine play series. A 49 yard pass from Gibbs to Lee and runs of 20 and 18 yards by Grimm and Gibbs were the key plays in the drive for the White Falcons. Zack Wamsley booted the first of four extra point kicks to stake WHS with a 7-0 edge. South Gallia came right back early in the second canto with the Rebels capitalizing on a fumbled punt that was recovered by Spurlock at the Wahama 49. An 18 yard gain on a pass from Haner to Danny Matney preceded an eight yard run by Jacob White to place the ball at the 18 where White See REBELS, B4 Alex Hawley/photo South Gallia running back Jacob White, left, breaks a tackle as he runs in for the lone South Gallia score during Friday’s game against Wahama.

Coal Grove outlasts Raiders Blue Devils fend off Portsmouth, 10-7 on Senior Night, 20-13 By Bryan Walters bwalters@mydailytribune. com CHESHIRE, Ohio —So close, and yet so far. The River Valley football team was four minutes away from pulling off a colossal upset of Coal Grove Friday night, but the visiting Hornets ultimately spoiled Senior Night festivities with a late defensive stand to hold on for a 20-13 victory in a Week 8 Ohio Valley Conference matchup at Raider Field. The Raiders (1-7, 0-3 OVC) trailed 14-0 after one quarter of play, but the hosts outscored CGHS 13-6 in the second half to pull within one possession with 11:16 left in regulation. After coming up with consecutive stands defensively, the Raiders were looking at a potential gamewinning drive when they took over possession at their own 20 with 3:58 remaining. River Valley marched the ball out to its own 41, but then a penalty left the hosts facing a fourth-andnine at their own 36. RVHS quarterback Austin Whobrey launched a deep ball intended for Austin Davies, but Jordan Beals deflected the pass before the ball reached Davies. The ball, however, bounced up in the air for a possible reception — but Davies was ultimately unable to haul in the pass. The incompletion result- ed in a loss of downs, giving Coal Grove possession at its own 36 with two minutes left. The Hornets grounded out one more first down, then ran out the clock with two kneels — allowing the guests to sneak away with a seven-point triumph.

By Bob Strickley Special to OVP PORTSMOUTH, Ohio — Frequently the comparison is drawn between a battlefield and the gridiron. But in the case of Portsmouth’s 10-7 loss to Gallia Academy Friday night, the physicality of play and the backdrop of a burning building made the old cliche more relevant. Gallia Academy’s Brandon Taylor kicked the goahead field goal with 1:25 remaining in the game with the backdrop of an abandoned home burning to the right of the uprights. “We don’t ever win by large margins or running away from teams. We have adversity every week and that just shows the resiliency of our players,” Gallia Academy coach Mike Eddy said. “And for Brandon to go out there with that happening and kick the gamewinning field goal, it shows the mentality of our team.” The first half left a lot to be desire for both teams as they went into the intermission without a score. Portsmouth’s Austin Porter blocked Gallia Academy’s punt attempt at the end of the first possession of the game and Ethan Blackburn recovered giving the Trojans great field position at the Gallia Academy 22-yard-line. Portsmouth could only advance four yards before Zaide Whitley’s 35-yard field goal attempt went wide. The Blue Devils took over briefly and punted after only moving three yards in three plays giving it back to the Trojans at their 46-yard-line. Portsmouth advanced into Blue Devil territory but retreated back to their starting position after a negative play and two penalties and punted. Gallia Academy started at their own 13-yard-line on the ensuing drive but could only get to the 25-yard-line before the Portsmouth defense forced another punt. On the first play of the subsequent drive, Portsmouth’s Mason Jordan completed a pass to Wayne Evans but Evans fumbled and Gallia Academy’s Bryant Bokovitz recovered at the 45-yard-line. Taylor took the hand off See DEVILS, B6 �Sunday, October 16, 2011 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis Big Blacks crush Ravenswood, 37-0 By Andy Layton Sports Correspondent POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — The Big Blacks saved their most impressive defensive performance of the season for homecoming night with a 37-0 win over the Ravenswood Red Devils. “Our offense played well again with some big numbers,” said Head Coach David Darst “but once again it was our defense that played well all night long. They made big stop after big stop for us.” That defense — the top defense in AA coming into the game allowing less than 10 points per game — pitched its first shutout of Jan Haddox/photo Point Pleasant’s Jarrod Long carries the ball during Friday’s Homecoming Game against Ravenswood in Point Pleasant, W.Va. Sunday Times Sentinel • Page B2 Blue Angels sweep Jackson on Senior Night By Bryan Walters bwalters@mydailytribune.com CENTENARY, Ohio — The Gallia Academy volleyball team sent five seniors out in style Thursday night during a 25-13, 25-16, 25-13 Senior Night victory over visiting Jackson in a Southeastern Ohio Athletic League matchup in Gallia County. The Blue Angels (13-9, 6-4 SEOAL) honored Haley Rosier, Heather Ward, Rachel Morris, Molly Smith and Kanessa Snyder for their contributions before the start of the contest, then the hosts rode that momentum for three games to claim a season sweep of the Ironladies (10-11, 3-7). Gallia Academy, which won its sixth straight match over Jackson, also posted a 25-23, 21-25, 25-18, 21-25, 15-8 victory at JHS back on Sept. 22. Molly Smith led the service attack with 13 points and four aces, followed by Kanessa Snyder with nine points. Haley Rosier, Heather Ward and Kassie Shriver all added six points apiece to the winning cause, while Maggie Westfall and Rachel Morris respectively rounded things out with five points and one point. Shriver also had three service aces, while Westfall and Ward contributed one ace each. Shriver also had a game-high 38 assists for the hosts. Morris led the net attack with nine kills, followed by Riley Nibert with eight kills. Rosier and Westfall each had six kills, and the duo of Shriver and Smith added three kills apiece. Breanna West had two kills, and both Chelsy Slone and Halley Barnes chipped in one kill each. Westfall recorded a team-best six blocks, while the duo of Rosier and Nibert each added five blocks. Jackson was led by Meredith Harless with four service points, followed by Kerissa Jenkins with three points and Ann Billman with two points. The Ironladies have now dropped five matches in a row.

The Big Blacks amassed 339 rushing yards as a team and despite no one reached the 100 yard plateau, it was a balanced effort on the night with several running backs contributing to the effort. Senior running back Anthony Darst led the way with 14 rushes for 91 yards. Other key contributors included junior Marquez Griffin, who ran 9 times for 81 yards, sophomore Teran Barnitz had 14 carries for 77 yards and senior Jerrod Long had 13 rushes for 64 yards. Ravenswood received the opening kickoff and went three and out right away with nice plays from Trey Livingston, Jason Stouffer, and Brandon Toler on the drive. The first drive of the game was a quick five play drive and was capped off with a Jerrod Long two yard plunge into the endzone. The drive featured big plays from both tailbacks, Darst and Griffin, who had one big run a piece to set up the score. It was on the extra point attempt from Josh Parsons that Point would lose senior lineman Trey Livingston for the game due to an unspecified injury. The next Ravenswood drive ended early again with another nice defensive stand from Point and another interception on the season for senior safety Layne Thompson. The next Point possession went deep into Ravenswood territory before Eric Roberts threw his first interception of the season and senior Zack Martin pro- ceeded to take the interception the other way before it was called back for a block in the back on Jason Stouffer. Ravenswood took the ball over in Point territory and junior noseguard Conner Templeton responded with a sack on first down. Ravenswood would punt and Point would take over at their own 15. On the second play of the drive, the Big Blacks would fumble, putting the ball at the Point Pleasant 15 yard line. The Big Blacks defense would make their first big stand of the night as the defense forced the Red Devils to turn the ball over on downs when Andrew Williamson made a big play in the backfield on fourth down. Point would drive the ball to midfield before having to punt. Ravenswood would finally strike with their first big play when running back Jeremy Lawrence caught a big pass only to fumble on the run after the catch. On the second play of the drive, Eric Roberts hooked up with Brandon Toler for a 46 yard touchdown. Point would add one more score before the half — a 21 yard field goal by Josh Parsons — with 14 seconds left in the half. Despite two strong drives from the Red Devils to start the second half, the Big Blacks stood strong on each drive and held them to zero points. After those two stops, it was time for the Big Blacks offense to start to put points on the board.

Another touchdown was added with 3 minutes left in the game when sophomore Teran Barnitz scored from 3 yards out. “It was a great atmosphere for a high school football game with the big crowd here.

Barrett then picked off a Young pass with 36 seconds left and Meigs ran out the clock for the win. “It was a heck of a football game,” a wet Marauder coach Mike Chancey said after the contest. “The kids really played hard for four quarters, this was a good team win.

Dave Harris/photo Mountain West, C-USA plan football merger Associated Press The Mountain West and Conference USA are planning to join forces to secure their future in the rapidly changing college football landscape. The two leagues expect to merge their football operations into one mega-conference that will probably have between 20 and 24 teams in it when it finally gets going in 2013. The name? They’ll come up with one. Will Boise State and Air Force, among others, stay? They hope. “I’m just trying to create stability — greater stability — so we’re not talking about membership issues,” Mountain West commissioner Craig Thompson said Friday night on a conference call. Both commissioners, Thompson and Conference USA commissioner Britton Banowsky, said the new arrangement will provide the security that top programs From Page A1 tance runs by Hunter Johnson, Wolfe and Ramthun, Southern marched down field to score for the second time. Johnson ran the ball in from 14 yards out for the touchdown. The extra point kick was ruled no good, leaving Southern with the 13-6 lead at the end of the first quarter. Things quickly turned in the second quarter of play for the Tornadoes. Southern went three and out on its first possession of the second quarter, punting the ball back to Waterford. The Wildcats ran the ball on their next seven plays, moving the ball to the Southern nine yard line.

That’s clearly the reason for the merger announced Friday, shortly after it came out that Boise State and Air Force — two key Mountain West programs — were being courted by the Big East. Down to six teams of its own after Syracuse and Pittsburgh announced a pending departure to the ACC, the league generally viewed as the weakest of the automatic qualifiers for the Bowl Championship Series looks set to poach some of the top mid-majors. A Big East official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the conference had not authorized anyone to speak publicly about its plans, told The Associated Press that the conference plans to invite Boise State, Air Force and Navy as football-only members, and Central Florida to compete in all sports. “It’s a viable option and it creates stability and that’s what they’re looking for.” OUR Sarah Hawley/photo Southern’s Ryan Billingsley, front, provides a block for Southern ball carrier Hunter Johnson, right, during the first half of Friday’s Homecoming Game at Roger Lee Adams Memorial Field in Racine, Ohio.

The 21 point second quarter scoring barrage by the Bend Area team figured to be the beginning of another rout but that never really materialized as the South Gallia defense bent but didn’t break over the final 24 minutes of the contest. WHS threatened on numerous occasions during the final two periods but the Rebels, with Dalton and Danny Matney along with Jacob White, kept the visitors off the scoreboard. The White Falcon defense was equally as impressive throughout the road encounter with Jamin Branch, Zack Wamsley, Anthony Grimm and Matthew Stewart all turning in exceptional defensive performances. Wahama, now at 7-0 Grove From Page A1 CGHS wasted little time getting on the scoreboard, as Bryan Steele hauled in a 23-yard scoring pass from Alex Bare for an 8-0 advantage with 9:26 remaining in the opening period. The Hornets’ opening drive covered 58 yards in six plays and ate up 2:27. After forcing a punt on the ensuing possession, Coal Grove put together an 11-play, 73-yard scoring drive for a 14-0 cushion with 20 seconds left in the opening canto. Greg Bender plunged in from two yards out, capping a 4:57 drive for the early two-possession lead. The score remained that way through the rest of the half. Coal Grove held a 18230 advantage in total yards at the break, including a 124-25 edge in first half rushing yards. CGHS had nine first downs and one punt before intermission, while the Raiders had two first downs and three punts. Both teams traded possessions to start the second half, but the hosts made the most of their second possession in the third quarter — going 96 yards in four plays to pull within 14-7. Trey Noble hauled in a deep pass from Whobrey that was deflected by two CGHS defenders, then Noble completed the 72-yard scoring strike by running untouched over the last 40 yards for a one possession contest at the 2:12 mark of the third quarter. Coal Grove, however, responded with a four-play, 56-yard scoring drive to take a 20-7 advantage after Bender bullied his way in from two yards out with 37 seconds left in the canto. River Valley returned the kickoff to the CGHS 45yard line, then marched 45 yards in four plays to pull back to within seven points late in the fourth. Patrick Williams scampered 27 yards to paydirt with 11:16 remaining for a 20-13 contest. Three consecutive drives resulted in punts after that, which led to the hosts final drive of the night with 3:58 left in regulation. The Hornets outgained RVHS by a sizable 381-201 margin in total offense, and the guests also claimed an 18-7 edge in first downs. Neither team committed a turnover and there was a total of eight punts in the contest, five of which came from River Valley. Coal Grove churned out 261 rushing yards on 50 attempts and had another 120 yards passing, while the Raiders had 86 rushing yards on 27 totes and another 115 passing yards. CGHS was flagged nine times for 71 yards, while River Valley was penalized seven overall and 7-0 inside TVC action has likely ensured a return visit to the post season and will go outside conference play for the first time this year when they travel to Fairmont State College next Friday for a non-league game with 11th ranked Madonna. South Gallia (6-2, 5-2), with playoff aspirations of its own, will journey to Waterford for a league contest with the Wildcats for its next grid encounter.

The Trojans drove into Blue Devil territory before retreating on a pair of negative plays and were again forced to punt. “In games like this it boils down to who makes the crucial mistake and when you make them,” Portsmouth coach Curt Clifford said. “They made theirs and we made ours and they just took advantage of what they had.” Gallia Academy took over at their own 36-yardline with 10:55 remaining in the half and marched to the Portsmouth 29-yardline before a Wade Jarrell pass fell incomplete on fourth down to turn it back over to the Trojans. Portsmouth suffered another three-and-out and Gallia Academy an eightplay drive to reach the Portsmouth 25-yard-line but Taylor pushed a field goal attempt wide with 35.9 seconds remaining. Portsmouth kneeled the remaining time away to go to the locker room for the intermission. The second half saw more life from the dormant offensives but the first drive from Portsmouth was stalled after Mason Jordan left the game the game with an injury on third down and the Blue Devils took over on their own 28-yard-line with 10:46 left in the third quarter. Gallia Academy’s offense came alive using a formation that aligned the fullback less than a yard behind the guards opening holes for Taylor. “We really just went in and made a few adjustments and our kids know what they are doing,” Eddy said. “In our offense the defense always keys of the guard so we moved the fullback up to that spot to add a little wrinkle to the reads they might make.” Taylor touched the ball on 11 of the 18 plays of the first scoring drive of the game that went 72 yards and Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis was capped by a Cody Russell 2-yard rushing touchdown with 1:02 remaining in the third giving the Blue Devils a 7-0 lead. “We don’t have the flashiest team in the world but we have some guys that battle for us and just keep the legs churning and that’s what got us the win tonight,” Eddy said. “I couldn’t be more proud of all our guys.” Portsmouth could move only 12 yards on their next drive but Gallia Academy muffed Whitely’s punt and Romaine Mills recovered for the Trojans at the Gallia Academy 26-yard-line. Mason Jordan then connected with Wayne Evans on a 25-yard touchdown pass on third down and the Whitely extra point tied the game at seven with 10:12 to play. At that point the fire department had been called for a fire just beyond the Coliseum that had become a distraction to many of the patrons but play continued unimpeded. An excellent kick return by Shaylin Logan set up the Blue Devils on the 50-yard-line but the offense could only get to the Portsmouth 24-yard-line before the Trojans defense forced Gallia Academy into a field goal attempt that again went wide. The Blue Devil defense held the Trojans to another three-and-out and with the fire raging in the background and Gallia Academy took over at Portsmouth 38-yard-line. Russell was held to just a three-yard gain on third down to set up a 32-yard field goal attempt for the Blue Devils with 1:25 left in the game. “You battle all game for a chance like that and our guys did what they needed to do in that situation,” Eddy said. Perhaps the distraction of a burning building in the background was the fix Taylor needed as his third field goal attempt of the game was true from 32-yards out to give the Blue Devils the lead with 1:25 remaining. “We talk about adversity all the time and while we weren’t necessarily happy with the way this game was going, we weren’t surprised to see them turn it around,” Eddy said. Portsmouth started at their own 26-yard-line with 1:19 remaining and Jordan connected with L. J. Adams for eleven yards and then ran for eight to get to the 46-yard-line but a false start penalty and pressure from the Blue Devils defense short-circuited any comeback hopes for Portsmouth. After a fourth down pass fell incomplete, Gallia Academy took over with 23.3 seconds remaining and kneeled the game to its 10-7 final. “Our kids played their guts out and played so hard like they do every week,” Clifford said. “We are sitting at 2-6 but I know our kids will go out and play as hard as they can next week.” Clifford felt there were certain situations his team did not capitalize and that cost the Trojans in the end. “Tonight there was some crucial mistakes made by us missing some open receivers and struggling to block up front,” Clifford said. “When we tied it up we didn’t ratchet it up on special teams and that cost us.” Gallia Academy improves to 5-3 overall and 2-1 in the SEOAL while Portsmouth drops to 2-6 and 1-3 in the SEOAL. The Blue Devils return to action Friday when they host Warren on Senior Night in a Week 9 SEOAL contest at Memorial Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Bob Strickley is the sports editor of the Portsmouth Daily Times in Portsmouth, Ohio.

The embattled league’s leaders have agreed on a plan to invite Boise State, Air Force and Navy as football-only members, and Central Florida to compete in all sports, after they double the exit fee for current members to $10 million. Houston and SMU are likely next in line as full members as the Big East tries to get to 12 schools. An official in the Big East, speaking on condition of anonymity because the conference had not authorized anyone to speak publicly about its plans, told The Associated Press invitations could go out as soon as next week. The official also said Commissioner John Marinatto was in Cincinnati on Friday meeting with UCF’s president and athletic director. Conferences do not publicly invite new members unless they are confident those invitations will be accepted. But until the invites go out, nothing is a done deal. CBSSports.com first reported the Big East would invite Boise State, Air Force, Navy and UCF. With 12 football schools, the Big East would split into two divisions and could play a championship game. Boise State and Air Force, which is located in Colorado Springs, along with UCF’s Conference USA rivals SMU and Houston, would give the Big East — a league that started as a northeastern basketball conference — four football schools West of the Mississippi River. Houston athletic director Mack Rhoades said the school would have no comment on the Big East. Temple, which plays football in the Mid-American Conference and is located in Philadelphia, also has been under consideration. Big East officials made protecting the league’s automatic bid to the Bowl Championship Series their expansion priority. That pushed Boise State, which is in its first season in the Mountain West Conference after a decade in the Western Athletic Conference, to the top of the Big East’s most wanted list, along with the service academies. The Broncos are 71-5 since 2006, finished 10th in the final BCS standings last season and at 5-0 seem on their way to a top-10 finish. Big East officials believe putting Boise State’s record on the Big East’s ledger when the BCS reviews which leagues should have automatic bids beyond 2013 should allow the conference to make the cut. The Mountain West Conference does not have an automatic bid to the BCS. Nor does Conference USA. Later Friday, those two leagues announced they would “consolidate” their football programs by 2013. Right now their are 22 teams in those leagues, 10 in the MWC and 12 in CUSA, but maybe not for long. MWC Commissioner Craig Thompson said during a conference call Friday he has been notified by the leaders of Boise State and Air Force that they had been in contact with the Big East, but the presidents of those schools also participated in the league’s unanimous vote to approve the merger with CUSA. He said the merged conference creates stability and is a “viable option” for Boise State and Air Force, but he would not speculate on what those schools would do. Conference USA Commissioner Britton Banowsky said the president of UCF took part in his conference’s vote and that he and Marinatto have been in contact about Central Florida. “I hope UCF will stay,” he said. “But if a school feels like it’s in a better situation somewhere else that’s OK.” Both commissioners said they are having internal discussions with their members about possibly adding other schools. Right now, the Big East has only six schools committed to play football in the league beyond this season. Pittsburgh and Syracuse have announced they will move to the Atlantic Coast Conference, though Big East rules require them to stay in the league for the next two seasons and Marinatto has said he will hold the Panthers and Orange to that. However, that’s unlikely if the league can grow to 12 teams for next season without them. TCU was slated to join the Big East in 2012, but the Horned Frogs reneged on that commitment and accepted an invite to the Big 12 last week. Trying to recruit new members has been tricky for the Big East because its remaining members might also be looking for new conference homes. Louisville and West Virginia are possible targets for the Big 12 if it needs to replace Missouri, which is pondering a move to the Southeastern Conference, or decides to expand back to 12 teams. Connecticut has interest in joining the ACC if it expands again, and there has been speculation about Rutgers moving, too. By raising the exit fee, the Big East is trying to show the schools it has been recruiting that the conference will be stable in the long run. Boise State, Air Force, and Navy, an independent in football, all had reservations about the Big East’s long-term health. SMU and Houston would replace the Texas presence the Big East thought it was going to have with TCU, and help make the move to the Big East more palatable to Boise State. Boise, Idaho, is nearly 1,900 miles from the closest current Big East member, Louisville. Though the trip to Houston is about as far, having a presence in Texas is alluring to Boise State. Boise State and Air Force would have to find conferences to house their other sports. A return to the WAC is possible for both, though WAC Commissioner Karl Benson said Friday that he has only had hypothetical conversations with Boise State and Air Force officials about those schools joining as non-football members. The Big East also has eight members that do not compete in football: Villanova, Georgetown, St. John’s, Providence, Seton Hall, Marquette, DePaul and Notre Dame. Notre Dame’s goal is to remain a football independent, but if the Big East crumbles the Fighting Irish could end up with no place for their basketball, baseball and Olympic sports to compete. That could force Notre Dame to finally give up football independence and put its storied program in a conference, because it’s unlikely another league will give the Irish the same deal they have in the Big East.
