By Sarah Hawley

The new buddy benches are in place on the playgrounds at Meigs Primary
School.

MIDDLEPORT — Thanks
to a grant, the playgrounds at
Meigs Primary School have
some new additions.
Earlier this year, at the
Meigs County Community
Fund Gala, Meigs Primary
School received a grant for
more than $2,000 to support the creation of a trauma
informed playground which
is designed to engage all ﬁve
senses, promote new coping
skills, encourage play that is
accessible and beneﬁcial to all
students, foster friendships
and promote creativity. The
grant was a awarded from the

Health and Human Services
Pillar of Prosperity Fund of
the Foundation of Appalachian
Ohio.
The trauma informed playgrounds are being developed
for the kindergarten, ﬁrst and
second grade students.
The grant funds were
used the purchase a “Buddy
Bench” for each of the three
playgrounds, as well as signs
to remind the students of
how the benches work.
Meigs Primary teacher
Darla Kennedy explained that
the benches are to be used
by students who are feeling
lonely, sad or just need a
friend. The other students
know that if someone is sit-

ting on the bench they should
talk to them and invite them
to come play. One of the
rules for the bench is that
the kid sitting there cannot
decline an invite to play with
other students.
Kennedy said that at recess
she see the benches working
to help connect students with
one another, helping any student in need to ﬁnd a friend
to talk to and play with.
In addition to the buddy
benches, music items have
been put in place, including
a large wooden xylophone
which allows students to play
and create rhythms on the

them are village employees, other volunteer their

done to improve Middleport’s infrastructure,

a phone call. Sandy, we
appreciate all you have
done.”
“I wouldn’t be here if
you hadn’t given me a
push,” said council member Ben Reed.
“I wouldn’t have written the letter asking to
join council if you and

and a joy to serve with

Dems unveil impeachment charges; Trump left ‘no choice’
By Lisa Mascaro
and Mary Clare Jalonick
Associated Press

WASHINGTON
— House Democrats
announced two articles
of impeachment against
President Donald Trump
on Tuesday, declaring his
actions toward Ukraine
“betrayed the nation” as
they pushed toward historic proceedings that are
certain to help deﬁne his
presidency and shape the
2020 election.
The speciﬁc charges
aimed at removing the
45th president of the
U.S.: abuse of power and
obstruction of Congress.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi,
ﬂanked by the chairmen
of impeachment inquiry
committees at the U.S.
Capitol, said they were
upholding their solemn
oath to defend the Constitution. Trump responded
angrily on Twitter:
“WITCH HUNT!”
Voting is expected in
a matter of days by the
Judiciary Committee, and
by Christmas in the full
House. The charges, if
approved, would then be
sent to the Senate, where
the Republican majority
would be unlikely to convict Trump, but not without a potentially bitter
trial just as voters in Iowa
and other early presidential primary states begin
making their choices.
In the formal articles
announced Tuesday, the
Democrats said Trump
enlisted a foreign power
in “corrupting” the U.S.
election process and
endangered national security by asking Ukraine to
investigate his political
rivals, including Democrat Joe Biden, while
withholding U.S. military

aid as leverage. That
beneﬁted Russia over
the U.S. as America’s ally
fought Russian aggression, the Democrats said.
Trump then obstructed
Congress by ordering current and former ofﬁcials
to defy House subpoenas
for testimony and by
blocking access to documents, the charges say.
By his conduct, Trump
“demonstrated he will
remain a threat to
national security and the
Constitution if allowed
to remain in ofﬁce, “ the
nine-page impeachment
resolution says.
“If we did not hold him
accountable, he would
continue to undermine
our election,” Pelosi said
later at a forum sponsored by Politico. “Nothing less is at stake than
the central point of our
democracy - a free and
fair election.’’
After decrying the
Democrats’ announcement, Trump headed to
Pennsylvania for a reelection campaign rally.
First, he tweeted that to
impeach a president “who
has done NOTHING
wrong, is sheer Political
Madness.”
The outcome, though,
appears increasingly set
as the House presses
ahead toward impeachment as it has only three
times in history against
U.S. presidents, an ultimate test of the nation’s
system of checks and balances.
Democrats said they
had no choice but to act
in what is now a strictly
partisan undertaking, as
Republicans stand with
the president, because
Trump has shown a pattern of behavior that, if
left unchecked, poses

From left, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., House Financial Services Committee
Chairwoman Maxine Waters, D-Calif., House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y.,
House Committee on Oversight and Reform Chair Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., House Ways and Means
Committee Chairman Richard Neal, D-Mass., and House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam
Schiff, D-Calif., announce at the Capitol in Washington on Tuesday that they are pushing ahead with
two articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump — abuse of power and obstruction of
Congress — charging he corrupted the U.S. election process and endangered national security in his
dealings with Ukraine.

risks to the democratic
process.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler,
D-N.Y., the Judiciary
chairman, said the president “holds the ultimate
public trust. When he
betrays that trust and
puts himself before country, he endangers the
Constitution; he endangers our democracy; he
endangers our national
security.”
“No one, not even the
president, is above the
law,” he said, announcing the charges before a
portrait of George Washington.
Chairman Adam Schiff
of the Intelligence Committee said, “We stand
here today because the
president’s abuse of
power leaves us with no
choice.”
Trump’s allies immediately plunged into the
ﬁght that will extend

into the new year. White
House Press Secretary
Stephanie Grisham said
Democrats are trying to
“overthrow’’ the administration. Campaign manager Brad Parscale said
Democrats “don’t have
a viable candidate for
2020 and they know it.”
The president’s son, Eric,
embraced his father’s penchant for name calling,
assailing Pelosi and “her
swamp creatures.”
Senate Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell said
he would be “totally surprised’’ if there were 67
votes in the chamber to
convict Trump, and signaled options for a swift
trial. He said no decision
had been made whether
to call witnesses.
In drafting the charges
against the president,
Pelosi faced a legal and
political challenge of
balancing the views of

her majority while hitting
the Constitution’s bar of
“treason, bribery or other
high crimes and misdemeanors.”
Some liberal lawmakers
wanted more expansive
charges encompassing
the ﬁndings from special
counsel Robert Mueller’s probe of Russian
interference in the 2016
election. Centrist Democrats preferred to keep
the impeachment articles
more focused on Trump’s
actions toward Ukraine.
The ﬁnal resolution
slim in length yet broad
in concept attempted to
ﬁnd common ground by
linking the Ukraine inquiry to the Mueller probe in
two separate lines, without speciﬁcally mention
the Russia investigation.
It said the abuse of
power was consistent
with “previous invitations
of foreign interference in

United States elections”
while the obstruction
charge was consistent
with Trump’s previous
efforts to undermine
“United States government investigations into
foreign interference.”
Democratic leaders say
Trump put his political
interests above those of
the nation when he asked
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in a July
phone call to investigate
his rivals, including Democrat Joe Biden, and then
withheld $400 million in
military aid as the U.S.
ally faced an aggressive
Russia. They say he then
obstructed Congress by
stonewalling the House
investigation.
The articles say Trump
“used the powers of the
presidency in a manner
that compromised the
national security of the
United States and undermined the integrity of the
United States democratic
process.”
The ﬁrst article, on
abuse of power, says
Trump “corruptly” solicited Ukraine to investigate
his political rivals.
The second article,
obstruction of Congress,
says that Trump directed
deﬁance of the House’s
ability to conduct its legal
oversight like no other
president “in the history
of the republic.”
Trump insisted in a

6 killed in New Jersey gunbattle
By David Porter

JERSEY CITY, N.J. —
Six people, including a
police ofﬁcer and three
bystanders, were killed in
a furious gunbattle Tuesday that ﬁlled the streets
of Jersey City with the
sound of heavy gunﬁre for
hours, authorities said.
The dead included two
suspects, Jersey City
Police Chief Michael
Kelly said.
The shooting took
place at two scenes, starting at a cemetery, where
the ofﬁcer was gunned
down, and continuing at
a kosher supermarket,
where ﬁve more bodies
were found, Kelly said.
“Our ofﬁcers were
under ﬁre for hours,” the
chief said.
He would not say exactly what set off the shooting but that he believes
the ofﬁcer who was killed
was trying to stop some
“bad guys.”
City Public Safety
Director James Shea said
that authorities believe
the bloodshed was not an
act of terrorism but that
it was still under investigation.
Two other ofﬁcers were
wounded but were later

Law enforcement gathers near the scene following reports of gunfire Tuesday in Jersey City, N.J.
One officer was pronounced dead at a hospital, and five other people were found dead at a kosher
supermarket, Mayor Steven Fulop said.

released from the hospital, authorities said.
The bullets started
ﬂying early in the afternoon in the city of about
270,000 people, situated
across the Hudson River
from the Statue of Liberty.
The shooting spread
fear through the neighborhood, and the nearby
Sacred Heart School was
put on lockdown as a
precaution.
SWAT teams, state
police and federal

agents converged on
the scene, and police
blocked off the area,
which in addition to the
school and supermarket
included a hair salon
and other shops. Dozens
of bystanders pressed
against the police barrier to capture the action
on their cellphones,
some whooping when
bursts of ﬁre could be
heard.
Video shot by residents recorded loud
volleys of gunﬁre rever-

berating along one of
the city’s main streets
and showed a long line
of law enforcement ofﬁcers pointing guns as
they advanced, yelling
to bystanders, “Clear
the street! Get out of the
way!”
“ It’s like ﬁrecrackers
going off,” said Andy
Patel, who works at a
liquor store about three
blocks away. “They were
shooting like crazy. ...
The cops were clearing
everyone off the streets.”

Photo of sick boy roils British election campaign
LONDON (AP) — A
photo of a sick boy sleeping on a hospital ﬂoor
because no beds were
available has become one
of the deﬁning images of
Britain’s bruising election
campaign.
It forced Prime Minister Boris Johnson onto
the defensive and ignited
a ﬁerce online debate
over whether it was real

or fake.
The boy, 4-year-old Jack
Williment-Barr, had been
admitted to Leeds General Inﬁrmary last week
with suspected pneumonia. He eventually was
diagnosed with ﬂu and
tonsillitis and then discharged, but not before he
was photographed lying
on the ﬂoor cushioned
by a coat with an oxygen

mask nearby. A red coat
served as a blanket.
The story was splashed
across Monday’s front
page of the left-leaning
national tabloid Daily
Mirror, including the
photo of Jack in his
Spider-Man top under the
headline, “Desperate.”
The photo and subsequent posts swept
through British social

media like a ﬁrestorm,
injecting an unpredictable
and explosive jolt into the
intensifying political war
of information just days
ahead of Thursday’s election.
Jack’s story came to
national attention in a
newspaper article critical of the Conservative
Party’s cuts to the U.K.’s
national health service.

Bill Cosby sex assault verdict upheld
By Maryclaire Dale
Associated Press

Bill Cosby lost his bid
to overturn his sexual
assault conviction Tuesday, as an appeals court
upheld the verdict in the
ﬁrst celebrity trial of the
#MeToo era.
In its ruling, the Superior Court afﬁrmed the
right of prosecutors to
call other accusers to
bolster their case — the
same issue fought over
in movie mogul Harvey Weinstein’s sexual
assault trial, now set for
Jan. 6.
“This decision is a
reminder that no one is
above the law,” Andrea
Constand, the victim
in Cosby’s case, said in
a text message to The

Associated Press
on Tuesday.
Cosby’s lawyers
had complained
that the judge had
let ﬁve women
testify at last
year’s retrial in
Cosby
suburban Philadelphia, although he
had let just one woman
testify at the ﬁrst trial
in 2017.
But the Superior
Court said their testimony was evidence of
Cosby’s “unique sexual
assault playbook” and
undermined any claim
that he “was unaware of
or mistaken about victim’s failure to consent.”
The prosecutor who
took the case to trial
praised Constand for
inspiring other victims

to come forward
against powerful
men. She went to
police long before
the #MeToo
movement saw
prominent men
in entertainment,
business, media
and other ﬁelds
brought down over their
treatment of women.
“She came to law
enforcement almost 15
years ago seeking justice for what was done
to her,” Montgomery
County District Attorney Kevin Steele said
Tuesday. “The world is
forever changed because
of Andrea’s bravery.”
Lawyers for Cosby
had argued eight issues
on appeal. They challenged the judge’s

decision to air Cosby’s
damaging deposition
testimony from a related
lawsuit; said he had a
binding promise from
a former prosecutor
that he would never be
charged; and said a juror
had prejudged Cosby’s
guilt.
The appeals court
rejected those arguments and also upheld
his classiﬁcation as a
sexually violent predator subject to lifetime
supervision.
Cosby, 82, can now
ask the state Supreme
Court to consider his
appeal. He recently said
he is prepared to serve
the full 10-year sentence
rather than express
remorse to the parole
board.

A truck pit has also been built on the ﬁrst grade
playground, with the hope to build similar areas on
the other playgrounds.
“We have worked a lot inside the building (on being
trauma informed), now it is time to work on the outside,” said Kennedy. From the music wall and items
to the buddy benches, the playgrounds give the kids a
place to interact, play and learn.
According to the organization Trauma-Sensitive
Schools (provided by Kennedy), a student’s ability
to overcome and succeed can be increased by focusing on four domains: establishing relationships with
teachers and peers; ability to self-regulate behaviors,
emotions, and attention; success in academic and nonacademic areas; physical and emotional health and
well-being.
“We believe trauma informed playgrounds will
encourage growth and progress in each of the four
domains, enhancing our students’ abilities to overcome barriers and succeed,” added Kennedy.
“The grant has enabled us to begin the process of
creating our own trauma informed playgrounds for
our students at Meigs Primary School,” said Kennedy.

Today’s Highlight in History
On Dec. 11, 2001, in
the ﬁrst criminal indictment stemming from
9/11, federal prosecutors
charged Zacarias Moussaoui, a French citizen of
Moroccan descent, with
conspiring to murder
thousands in the suicide
hijackings. (Moussaoui pleaded guilty to
conspiracy in 2005 and
was sentenced to life in
prison.)

In 1917, British Gen.
Edmund Allenby entered
Jerusalem two days after
his forces expelled the

In 1936, Britain’s
King Edward VIII abdicated the throne so he

In 1997, more than
150 countries agreed at
a global warming conference in Kyoto, Japan,
to control the Earth’s

In 2004, doctors in
Austria said that Ukrainian presidential candidate Viktor Yushchenko
had been poisoned with
dioxin, which caused
the severe disﬁgurement
and partial paralysis of
his face.
In 2008, former Nasdaq chairman Bernie
Madoff was arrested,
accused of running a
multibillion-dollar Ponzi
scheme that destroyed
thousands of people’s
life savings and wrecked
charities. (Madoff is
serving a 150-year federal prison sentence.)
The remains of missing
Florida toddler Caylee
Anthony were found six
months after she disappeared. (Her mother,
Casey Anthony, was
acquitted of murder in
her daughter’s death.)
In 2017, chef Mario

MASON, W.Va. — A good start kept a good
start going.
The Wahama girls basketball team stormed
out to a 17-8 ﬁrst quarter lead and never looked
back Monday night during a 56-41 victory over
visiting Southern in a Tri-Valley Conference

The Lady Falcons (2-0, 2-0 TVC Hocking)
wasted little time establishing an inside presence as Emma Gibbs scored seven points during that opening period surge that provided a
9-point cushion.
Hannah Rose followed by hitting three trifectas and scoring 11 points during a 15-8 second
quarter run that increased the WHS lead out to
32-16 at the break.
Gibbs and Mikie Lieving each poured in four

5-of-18 at the free throw line for 28 percent. The
hosts were just 2-of-9 at the stripe entering the
fourth quarter.
Rose paced WHS with all ﬁve trﬁectas and a
game-high 26 points, followed by Gibbs with 15

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Ohio State defensive
end Chase Young won the Bronko Nagurski Award
given to the nation’s top college defensive player on
Monday night.
Young was the nation’s most dominant player on
defense this season, recording 16 1/2 sacks and forcing six fumbles in 10 games for the Buckeyes. His best
game came against then-No. 13 Wisconsin when he
had four sacks and two forced fumbles in a 38-7 victory.
The 6-foot-6, 265-pound Young joins a list of former
Nagurski Award winners that includes Aaron Donald,
Warren Sapp, Luke Kuechly, Terrell Suggs and Champ
Bailey.
“It’s such an honor to come in here and see all of
the great players that have won this award, and have a
chance to put my name in that category with some of
the all-time great college football players,” Young said.
“It’s deﬁnitely amazing.”
Young received the award Monday night at a banquet sponsored annually by the Charlotte Touchdown
Club.
Ohio State coach Ryan Day was on hand for the
announcement as the event’s keynote speaker.
He praised Young for putting up “ridiculous” statistics this season, and helping his team to an undefeated season so far. Second-ranked Ohio State plays
No. 3 Clemson in the Fiesta Bowl on Dec. 28, with
the winner advancing to the College Football Playoff
National Championship game.

Lady Pioneers roll past Point, 59-27

Heisman finalists

POINT PLEASANT,
W.Va. — Not as fortunate
on the home front.
After opening the season with an impressive
13-point win at Poca, the
Point Pleasant girls basketball team trailed wireto-wire in its home opener
Monday night during a
59-27 setback to visiting
Wayne in a non-conference matchup of previously unbeaten squads.
The host Lady Knights
(1-1) were limited to a
single 3-point ﬁeld goal
in each of the ﬁrst two
quarters, while the Lady
Pioneers (2-0) had ﬁve
different players score at
least four points en route
to a commanding 34-6
halftime advantage.
PPHS — which trailed
15-3 after eight minutes
of play — received a pair
of trifectas from Brooke
Warner in the third
period, but the guests
still won the canto by a
slim 11-10 margin while
extending the lead out to
45-16.
The hosts made a 9-0
run at the start of the
fourth quarter to close to
within 20 points at 45-25,
but were ultimately never
closer the rest of the way.
WHS ended the ﬁnal

NEW YORK (AP) —
Oklahoma quarterback
Jalen Hurts and Ohio
State teammates quarterback Justin Fields
and defensive end
Chase Young will join
LSU quarterback Joe
Burrow as Heisman
Trophy ﬁnalists.
The top vote-getters
for college football’s
most famous player of
the year award were
announced Monday,
and three of them
were quarterbacks who
transferred to their
current schools.
Burrow is the clear
front-runner to win the
Heisman on Saturday
night in New York after
a record-breaking season, leading the Tigers
(13-0) to the top seed
in the College Football
Playoff. He would be
LSU’s second Heisman
winner and ﬁrst since
running back Billy
Cannon in 1959. The
60-year gap between
Heisman winners
would be the longest
for any school with
multiple recipients.
The other ﬁnalists
were not so obvious even after all
the games had been
played. Ohio State had
three players worthy of
consideration in Fields,
Young and running
back J.K. Dobbins.
Fields and Young are
the ﬁrst teammates to
be ﬁnalists since Oklahoma had quarterback
Baker Mayﬁeld and
receiver Dede Westbrook at the Heisman
ceremony in 2016.
Hurts is the third
Oklahoma quarterback
in the last four seasons
to be a Heisman ﬁnal-

The team also said that while
it was granted credentials for the

team, “our failure to inform the
Bengals and the League was an
unintended oversight.” When confronted, the team said the crew
“immediately turned over all footage to the league and cooperated
fully.”

ist, including the last
two winners in Kyler
Murray and Mayﬁeld.
Burrow is just the
second Heisman ﬁnalist for LSU since candidates began being
invited to New York
for the presentation
ceremony in 1982,
and the ﬁrst offensive
player from the Tigers.
The last ﬁnalist from
LSU was defensive
back Tyrann Mathieu,
who ﬁnished ﬁfth in
the voting in 2011.
Quarterbacks have
dominated the Heisman over the last two
decades, winning 16
of the last 19 trophies,
dating back to 2000.
The last two winning
quarterbacks, Murray
and Mayﬁeld, were
both transfers, and this
year will likely make it
three straight transfer
QBs to win the Heisman.
Burrow left Ohio
State and joined LSU
in 2018 as a graduate transfer. He had a
breakout season this
year in the Tigers’
new spread offense.
Burrow has already
set an Southeastern
Conference record with
48 touchdown passes
and is on pace to set
an NCAA record for
completion percentage
at 77.9%.
Hurts played for
three seasons at
Alabama, reaching
the playoff each year
before joining the
Sooners and leading
them to the ﬁnal four.
He has passed for
3,634 yards and 32
touchdowns and run
for 1,255 yards and 18
touchdowns.
