Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, a fellow Republican; Jane Timken, chair of the Ohio Republican Party; the clerk of the Ohio House and the lawyer for House Republicans’ campaign committee are also invited, Seitz said. “The important thing is to follow the appropriate process and in a calm and logical manner,” Seitz said. “We’re trying to do what’s right.” Seitz added that they’ll take a secret ballot on whether Householder COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Day cares can return to normal stafﬁng ratios, but county fairs will be reduced to junior fairs featuring livestock competitions for children and teens, without the usual rides, games and grandstand events, Gov. Mike DeWine announced Tuesday in his latest updates about the impact of the coronavirus in Ohio. Despite the best efforts of fair ofﬁcials so far, it has become obvious that fairs can’t go on normally because of the pandemic this year, the Republican governor said. The change, which the governor called a “difﬁcult decision,” takes effect Friday. The announcement limits fairs to livestock competitions and 4H and Future Farmers of America events for children and teens. It also allows harness racing without spectators. DeWine also announced that beginning Aug. 9, Ohio day care centers can return to their regular stafﬁng ratios. Currently, health order limits prohibit more than six toddlers per staff member per classroom, or more than nine preschool students per staff member per classroom. Day cares can raise their ratio limits, or apply for subsidies to maintain their current, lower ratios, the governor said. “Child care providers will still have to comply with stringent health and safety requirements including face coverings for all staff, symptom and temperature checks, hand washing, frequent cleaning, etc.,” DeWine said. Also Tuesday, the superintendent of Columbus City Schools, Ohio’s largest district, announced all grades will be taught virtually at least through October. The district had considered a blended approach involving online and in-person learning for students through middle school, but worsening public health conditions led to the decision to go completely virtual, said Superintendent Talisa Dixon. Franklin County, home to Columbus, has some of the highest numbers of positive COVID-19 tests in Ohio. Even before DeWine issued his statewide mask order, the county was under its own mandate for mask-wearing in public. Under the plan, school will begin Sept. 8 — at least two weeks later than normal — and students will learn virtually at least through the ﬁrst quarter, ending Oct. 27.

Donation of Rutland’s past By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com RUTLAND — Items related to the history of the Rutland area will soon be on display in the lobby of the Rutland Civic Center. Rutland Mayor Tyler Eblin received the donation from historian Jordan Pickens last week, including a plaque with names of men from Rutland who passed in World War II, the ﬂag from the former American Legion Post 467 in Rutland, and the temporary and ofﬁcial charter from the American Legion Post 467. The temporary charter was issued in 1941, with the ofﬁcial charter in 1975. Mayor Eblin wrote in a prepared statement, “Like every community in our rural county, Rutland has a rich history; history signiﬁcant and unique to its people. Much of that history is commemorated in the main lobby of the Rutland Civic Center. Today, our great Village can add to this ﬁne commemoration through a generous donation of artifacts from Meigs County Historian Jordan Pickens.” “Accompanying this display of history in the Rutland Civic Center will now be a plaque in commemoration of four brave individuals from Rutland High See HISTORY | 8 A plaque commemorates the lives lost in World War II.

Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., center, speaks during a news conference on on Capitol Hill on Mondayto highlight the Republican proposal for the next coronavirus stimulus bill. Joining Graham, from left, areSenate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Ky., Sen. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., Sent. Tim Scott, R-S.C., and Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala. Dems, GOP far apart as aid talks intensify By Lisa Mascaro AP Congressional Correspondent WASHINGTON — The differences over the next coronavirus aid package are vast: Democrats propose $3 trillion in relief and Republicans have a $1 trillion counteroffer. At stake are millions of Americans’ jobless beneﬁts, school reopenings and eviction protections. As top White House negotiators return to Capitol Hill on Tuesday, the leverage is apparent. They are meeting at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s ofﬁce. Republicans are so deeply divided over the prospect of big government spending it’s leaving Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell with a weakened hand. Striking any agreement between Congress and President Donald Trump by Friday’s deadline for expiring aid will be daunting. “We cannot afford to fail,” Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer said. The outcome will be a deﬁning one for the president and the parties heading into the November election as an uneasy nation is watching and waiting for Washington to bring some end to the health crisis and devastating economic fallout. But McConnell acknowledged the limits with Republicans split: “We’ve done the best we can.” Key to the debate is the $600 weekly unemployment beneﬁt bump that is expiring for millions of jobless Americans. Republicans want to slash it to $200 a week as an incentive to push people back to work. Democrats have shown ﬂickers of willingness to curb the federal aid, but are refusing to go that low. Republicans defend cuts to unemployment assistance, saying the federal supplement is too generous, on top of state beneﬁts, and people should not be paid more while they are at home than they would if they were on the job. “The American people don’t call that a controversy, they call that common sense,” McConnell said. Pelosi dismissed the GOP’s approach as “wrong” and Schumer responded by waving a copy of a New York newspaper on the Senate ﬂoor with the headline summing up the Republican attitude as: “Let them eat cake.” With the virus death toll climbing and 4.2 million infections nationwide, both parties are eager for a deal. There is widespread agreement that more money is needed for virus testing, to help schools prepare to open in the fall and to shore up small businesses. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and White House chief of staff Mark Meadows returned to Capitol Hill for a second day of talks with Pelosi and Schumer. They also heard an earful during a private GOP lunch. Half the Republican senators are expected to oppose any bill. “We’re a long way apart,” acknowledged Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., the chairman of the Appropriations Committee. Republicans seek $16 billion for virus testing but Democrats want $75 billion. For school reopenings, Democrats want four times the $105 billion Republicans propose. Democrats want to extend a federal eviction moratorium on millions of rental units that is expiring Friday, but Republicans are silent on evictions. McConnell insisted no bill will pass without a sweeping liability shield for doctors, businesses and schools reopening. Democrats want tougher federal workplace safety oversight. One major sticking point will be over funding for cash-strapped states and cities. Democrats proposed nearly $1 trillion for states and cities to avert municipal layoffs of government workers. Republicans gave no new money and prefer providing them with ﬂexibility in previously approved aid. The two bills are widely seen as simply starting points in talks. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said McConnell would be lucky to get half the Republicans on board. “We’re in a war, ok, with the virus,” Graham said at the Capitol. “And if you don’t think we need money for hospitals and doctors you’re not looking at the same movie I’m looking at.” An area of common ground is agreement on a new round of $1,200 direct payments to Americans earning $75,000 or less. But Democrats also add a “heroes’ pay” bonus for frontline essential workers, money food stamps and other assistance that Republicans do not provide. The Republicans come to the negotiating table hobbled by inﬁghting and delays. Conservative Republicans quickly broke ranks arguing the spending was too much and priorities misplaced. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. scoffed that McConnell’s bill was sure to win support — from Democrats. “He has all the Democrats Classifieds IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF GALLIA COUNTY, OHIO Tammy L.

Republicans were scrambling to justify providing $1.7 billion for a new FBI headquarters in Washington, a non-pandemic-related expense that’s a top priority of the president but not of lawmakers or McConnell. Trump’s hotel is across the street from it on Pennsylvania Avenue. Keeping the property in federal hands, rather than relocating the FBI to neighboring Maryland or Virginia as some propose, prevents competing hotels on the prime downtown corner. As bipartisan talks unfold, the White House has suggested a narrower relief package may be all that’s possible. Democrats have dismissed that as too meager. And a top Republican, Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, said, “I haven’t heard any support for that.” The $600 weekly jobless beneﬁts boost, approved as part of the March aid package, ofﬁcially expires Friday, but because of the way states process unemployment payments, the cutoff has effectively begun. Under the GOP proposal, the jobless boost would be reduced to $200 a week for two months through September and phased out to a new system that ensures no more than 70% of an employee’s previous pay. States could request an additional two months, if needed, to make the transition. Economists widely see signs of trouble in the economy, which showed an uptick in the spring as some states eased stayhome orders and businesses reopened, but it now faces fresh uncertainty as states clamp down. �COMICS 6 Wednesday, July 29, 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 � � � � � � RHYMES WITH ORANGE � � � � � By Hilary Price � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �'LIILFXOW\�/HYHO By Bil and Jeff Keane �� OH-70192082 D R TH � � � � � � � � � WARRANTY Promo Number: 285 10 � � � � � � � � � LIFETIME YOUR ENTIRE PURCHASE* % OFF SENIOR & MILITARY DISCOUNTS � � � � � � � � � 1 ER GUA 15 OFF AND! + � � � � � � � � � TT NATIO ’S E N Le GUARANTEED!

MIAMI (AP) — The Miami Marlins’ coronavirus outbreak could endanger the Major League Baseball season, Dr. Anthony Fauci said, as the number of their players testing positive rose to 15. The Marlins received positive test results for four additional players Tuesday, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press. The person declined to be identiﬁed because the results had not been publicly released. Nine players on the 30-man roster, two taxi squad players and two staff members tested positive earlier, stranding the team in Philadelphia and prompting the postponement of four MLB games. The Marlins’ outbreak raised anew questions about MLB’s attempts to conduct a season outside of bubble environment, which the NFL also has opted not to create for its season. “This could put it in danger,” Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, said of the outbreak. “I don’t believe they need to stop, but we just need to follow this and see what happens with other teams on a day-by-day basis.” Fauci made his comments on ABC’s “Good Morning America” before the news of the Marlins’ latest test results. “Major League Baseball — the players, the owners, the managers — have put a lot of effort into getting together and putting protocols that we feel would work,” Fauci said. “It’s very unfortunate what happened with the Miami (Marlins).” Their outbreak continued to disrupt Major League Baseball’s schedule Tuesday, the sixth day of the pandemicdelayed season. Postponed for the second consecutive day were the Marlins’ home game against Baltimore, as well as the New York Yankees’ game at Philadelphia, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press. Miami played at Philadelphia last weekend. The Yankees are scheduled to host the Phillies on Wednesday and Thursday. “Obviously, we don’t want any player to get exposed. It’s not a positive thing,” Commissioner Rob Manfred said Monday night on the MLB Network. “But I don’t see it as a nightmare. … We think we can keep people safe and continue to play.” Bubble hockey begins: NHL playoff teams adjust to quarantine The Associated Press When the Boston Bruins boarded their ﬂight bound for Toronto, they thought of it as just another long road trip. Sure, they were spaced out and masked up on the plane, but they were en route to compete for the Stanley Cup that they fell one win short of earning last season. Patrice Bergeron said he was “excited and looking forward to what’s coming next.” It unfolded a little differently for Edmonton goaltender Mike Smith when he checked into a downtown hotel Sunday minutes from his house for a stay he hopes will last more than two months. “Reality deﬁnitely set in,” Smith said. NHL players from the 24 playoff teams woke up to their new reality Monday in the hub cities of Toronto and Edmonton, Alberta. Quarantined bubble life began with the league reporting zero positive coronavirus test results last week, and this existence away from the public is scheduled to last until the Stanley Cup is awarded in the fall. “We asked our group right from the start just to keep open minds because everything’s going to change, everything’s ﬂuctuating constantly, daily, minutely,” Minnesota coach Dean Evason said. “It’s different. You’ve got a walkway with fences. People can’t see in. You can’t see out. But if you embrace it and are willing just to go with things, it’s pretty cool.” While Major League Baseball postponed at least two games and grappled with the Miami Marlins’ COVID-19 outbreak, the NHL reported none of the 800-plus players tested in the ﬁnal week of training camps came back positive for the virus. That information and the low amount of conﬁrmed cases in the Canadian provinces where games will take place added a layer of conﬁdence to the ﬁrst day of practices. Like the NBA and Major League Soccer in Florida, the NHL set up a quarantined environment for players, coaches and staff that allowed those in the bubble to contrast that method of ﬁnishing the season to the less stringent way MLB and the NFL are trying to get through theirs. “We are in a bubble. Major League Baseball is not,” Boston coach Bruce Cassidy said. “Obviously once you get to the bubble, it appears to be a very safe environment.” Feeling safe allowed teams to get down to business in preparing for exhibition games this week and the start of the playoffs this weekend. They started getting the lay of the land at hotels and practice rinks, and some got to see inside the empty arenas they’ll be playing in when hockey restarts after the pause that began March 12. The initial reviews are positive. “I was a little skeptical of the whole process before this all started: How was it going to work? How can they prepare this?” Montreal forward and player representative Paul Byron said. “It didn’t seem like they had much time, much notice. … I’m actually pleasantly surprised coming to the hotel. It seems like they’ve got a pretty good setup for us.” The setup includes free Tim Hortons coffee, a selection of restaurants and private transportation from the hotel to the rink. Winnipeg coach Paul Maurice went so far as to call it all “pretty darn normal” while preparing for meaningful elimination in an abnormal spot on the calendar. Midsummer hockey will feel plenty natural when the puck drops. “The one place that it actually feels normal is when you lace your skates up,” longtime player turned Carolina coach Rod Brind’Amour said. “The one place that it feels like you forget all the outside kind of things that everybody’s dealing with, including the players, is when they’re playing.” Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Marshall defenders Tyler Brown (32), Marquis Couch (6) and Jamare Edwards (99) gang up for a tackle on Cincinnati running back Tavion Thomas during the second half of a Sept. 28, 2019, non-conference football game at Joan C.

Russo Associated Press Those working to get college sports up and running have been hoping the return of professional sports would provide valuable information that could aid their efforts to play through a pandemic. A COVID-19 outbreak for a Major League Baseball team three days into its season forced two games to be postponed Monday and brought a glimpse of how difﬁcult the task will be. “We’re still learning things and this is a data point, there’s no doubt about that,” Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby said. “We’re doing what our scientists and doctors are telling us to do. Move forward slowly and constantly re-evaluate. “I think this will just be the new normal. There will be ebbs and ﬂows and there’ll be disruptions.” Like MLB — and unlike the NBA, NHL, WNBA and MLS — college sports will try to conduct their seasons outside a controlled, virus-free bubble. The ﬁrst major college football games in an evolving schedule that should start to come into focus this week are a little more than a month away. COVID-19 ﬂareups have shut down voluntary workouts throughout July at about two dozen major college football programs, including Ohio State, North Carolina, Kansas State and Houston. Last week Michigan State and Rutgers both announced positive tests among players and staff led to 14-day quarantine for their entire teams. Full-blown practices for teams trying to start their seasons around the Labor Day weekend will begin by early next week. Greater challenges lie ahead and what happened to the Marlins could be an ominous sign, said Zachary Binney, an epidemiologist at Oxford College of Emory University. “The biggest thing that I see is this is a demonstration of just how quickly COVID-19 can rip through a clubhouse and a team even in a sport like baseball where practices and games are pretty conducive to physical distancing,” Binney said. “It’s deﬁnitely alarming. You have to expect things would look even worse in a sport like football where the practices have contact, the games have contact and you have bigger rosters. Because the virus getting into a team is just a numbers game. The more people you have the more likely it sneaks in.” The Miami Marlins outbreak rippled through baseball. Not only was their home opener with Baltimore postponed, but so was the Phillies’ game against the Yankees. The Marlins played at Philadelphia on Sunday after several players tested positive and the next day the total number of positive players and staffers was more than a dozen. When the Marlins or the Phillies will play next is unclear. Lucia Mullen, an epidemiologist and senior analyst at Johns Hopkins University, said there could be lessons to take from how soon those teams are competing again. “The next kind of pinnacle that other sports should be looking at is did they ﬁnd (the infected) fast enough? Were they able to ﬁnd all potential cases and stop the spread there or have they been too slow in their testing, in their contact tracing, that someone slipped through and we’re going to see more and more cases pop up?” Mullen said. “Because if that’s the case, we’re not testing enough.” Recent NCAA guidelines recommended testing college football players once a week during the season, within 72 hours of a game. The Power Five conferences are working on their own protocols which make a similar recommendation. Whether that is enough to prevent outbreaks that shut down teams, especially when more students return to campuses and college towns, remains to be seen. Clinical aspects aside, college sports could beneﬁt from a few smooth weeks of MLB playing and NFL opening training camps, If pro leagues struggle to keep their teams operating, questions about playing with unpaid college students will arise. Bowlsby said having worked on bringing back college sports since March he tries to avoid overvaluing singular events such as the Marlins’ outbreak. “Any good news is welcome. Any bad news is not surprising,” Bowlsby said. “I didn’t have an emotional reaction to it. I think we learned something from it. I was not surprised at all that there were positive tests. There will be positive tests in other sports, too. There will be positive tests on campuses when students return and within athletics programs. “If it gets to the point where it’s not at all manageable then we’ll have to adjust in real time. And that adjustment could be everything from changes in schedules, changes in current practices to a discontinuation of the activities.” �NEWS/WEATHER 8 Wednesday, July 29, 2020 Daily Sentinel Carleton College trustees elect officers, award scholarships SYRACUSE — The 155th annual meeting of the Carleton College Board of Trustees was recently held be phone conference due to COVID-19.
