CHESTER — The sound of
bells ﬁlled the Chester Courthouse
during the recent Christmas Open
House.
Christmas carols including
Silent Night and Coventry Carol
played by experienced ringers
under the direction of Cris Kuhn
took on an air of magic as the
sounds reverberated throughout
courthouse. The audience loved
the upbeat rendition of ”My Favorite Things.”
“This is one of the best places to
perform,” Kuhn said. “The acoustics in this old courthouse are
magniﬁcent.”
Through her dedication to her
students, and that of her students,
the group performs as a unit. The
musicians make it look easy, but
bell ringing takes hard work and
hours of practice. The switching of
bells, the timing, and the tapping
of bells with small mallets is all
done with one cohesive sound.
According to the Lancaster
Handbell Ensemble and the Hand
Musicians of America, ‘hand bells’
as they are known in Europe and
the United States are descendants
from the tower bells in England.
The art of tower bell ringing
was becoming part of the English
tradition around the 16th Century.
It took hours of practice and could
be disturbing to the people in the
village. To remedy the situation,
small bells were developed so the
ringers could practice indoors.
By the 18th Century, this type
of bell ringing had become its own
art, and larger sets of hand bells

Candles lit a tree decorated with vintage
ornaments and fruit inside the Chester
Courthouse.

were cast speciﬁcally for this type
of bell ringing.
It is said the interest in hand
bells in America was the result of
the accomplishments of Margaret
Shurcliff of Boston, Massachusetts. Shurcliff was presented with
a set of eight Whitechapel English hand bells in 1902 after she
became the ﬁrst American woman
to ring a complete peal on tower
bells in England. She also rang two
peals on hand bells.
Due to her efforts in promoting
and supporting the art, hand bell
ringing became popular across the
United States, and today “tune
ringing” (ringing melodies and
simple harmonies set to music for
festive occasions such as Christmas) are quite popular.
At the end of the performance,
Khun announced her 20 year career
as director and teacher at Eastern
High School was coming to an end,

and that she would be retiring at
the end of the school year.
“This is the last time I will be
directing this wonderful group of
young musicians in this Courthouse,” with a few tears in her
eyes, Khun said. “ I just love coming here.”
The choir was formed when
Khun became a music teacher at
Eastern. When asked during her
interview for the position what she
could bring to music program, she
suggested the idea of a bell choir.
The administration and board
were very supportive of the idea
and agreed to purchase the necessary equipment to begin the bell
program.
Now in their nineteenth year,
Khun hopes the tradition will
continue after her departure, and
stressed the importance of music
education in schools.
“Students should be encouraged
to participate regardless of their
experience or ability. We have
never told anyone they couldn’t
join, everyone who wanted to was
included. I love this group; it has
been so rewarding to teach these
students the art of bell ringing
the past 19 years. I will truly miss
them, and all of you here at the
Courthouse, you have always been
so supportive. ”
The courthouse is open on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and
Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Trump impeached by US House
President faces charges of abuse
of power, obstructing Congress
By Lisa Mascaro
and Mary Clare Jalonick

Associated Press

WASHINGTON —
President Donald Trump
was impeached by the
U.S. House of Representatives Wednesday night,
becoming only the third
American chief executive
to be formally charged
under the Constitution’s
ultimate remedy for high
crimes and misdemeanors.
The historic vote split
along party lines, much
the way it has divided the
nation, over the charges
that the 45th president
abused the power of
his ofﬁce by enlisting a
foreign government to
investigate a political
rival ahead of the 2020
election. Then a majority
of the House approved
a second charge, that he
obstructed Congress in
its investigation.
The articles of
impeachment, the
political equivalent of
an indictment, now go
to the Senate for trial. If
Trump is acquitted by the
Republican-led chamber,
as expected, he would
have to run for reelection
carrying the enduring
mark of impeachment on
his purposely disruptive
presidency.
Democrats led Wednesday night’s voting, framed
in what many said was
their duty to protect the
Constitution and uphold
the nation’s system of
checks and balances.
Republicans stood by
their party’s leader, who
has frequently tested the
bounds of civic norms.
Trump called the whole
affair a “witch hunt,” a
“hoax” and a “sham,” and
sometimes all three.
The trial is expected
to begin in January in
the Senate, where a
vote of two-thirds is
necessary for conviction. While Democrats
had the majority in the
House to impeach Trump,
Republicans control the
Senate and few if any are
expected to diverge from
plans to acquit the president ahead of early state
election-year primary
voting.
Pelosi, once reluctant
to lead Democrats into a
partisan impeachment,
now risks her majority
and speakership to hold
the president accountable.
“Today we are here to
defend democracy for the
people,” Pelosi said opening debate.
Trump, who began
Wednesday tweeting his

anger at the proceedings,
scheduled an evening
rally in Battle Creek,
Michigan.
He pumped his ﬁst
before an enthusiastic
crowd, boasted of “tremendous support” in
the Republican Party
and said, “By the way it
doesn’t feel like I’m being
impeached.”
What Pelosi called a
sad and solemn moment
for the country, coming in the ﬁrst year that
Democrats swept control
of the House, unfolded
in a caustic daylong session that showcased the
nation’s divisions — not
only along party lines, but
also by region, race and
culture.
The House impeachment resolution laid out
in stark terms the two
articles of impeachment
against Trump stemming from his July phone
call when he asked the
Ukraine president for a
“favor” — to announce it
was investigating Democrats ahead of the 2020
election. He also pushed
Ukrainian President
Volodymyr Zelenskiy to
probe unsubstantiated
corruption allegations
against Joe Biden, the
former vice president and
2020 White House contender.
At the time, Zelenskiy,
a young comedian newly
elected to politics, was
seeking a coveted White
House visit to show backing from the U.S. ally as it
confronts a hostile Russia
at its border. He was also
counting on $391 million
in military aid already
approved by Congress.
The White House delayed
the funds, but Trump
eventually released the
money once Congress
intervened.
Narrow in scope but
broad in its charge, the
resolution said the president “betrayed the nation
by abusing his high ofﬁce
to enlist a foreign power
in corrupting democratic elections,” and then
obstructed Congress’
oversight like “no president” in U.S. history.
“President Trump,
by such conduct, has
demonstrated that he
will remain a threat to
national security and the
Constitution if allowed to
remain in ofﬁce,” it said.
Republicans argued that
Democrats are impeaching Trump because they
can’t beat him in 2020.
“This vote is about one
thing, and one thing only:
They hate this president,”
said Rep. Chris Stewart,
R-Utah. “They want to

take away my vote and
throw it in the trash.”
But Democrats warned
the country cannot wait
for the next election to
decide whether Trump
should remain in ofﬁce
because he has shown a
pattern of behavior, particularly toward Russia,
and will try to corrupt
U.S. elections in 2020.
“The president and
his men plot on,” said
Chairman Adam Schiff,
D-Calif., of the Intelligence Committee that led
the inquiry. “The danger
persists. The risk is real.”
The outcome brings
the Trump presidency to
a milestone moment that
has building almost from
the time the New York
businessman-turned-reality-TV host unexpectedly
won the White House
in 2016 amid questions
about Russian interference in the U.S. election
--- and the rise of the
“resistance.”
Democrats drew from
history, the founders and
their own experiences, as
minorities, women and
some immigrants to the
U.S., seeking to honor
their oath of ofﬁce to
uphold the constitution.
Rep. Lou Correa, D-Calif.,
spoke in Spanish asking
God to unite the nation.
“In America,” said Rep.
Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y.,
“no one is above the law.”
Republicans aired
Trump-style grievances
about what Arizona Rep.
Debbie Lesko called a
“rigged” process.
“We face this horror
because of this map,” said
Rep. Clay Higgins, R-Ala.,
before a poster of red
and blue states. “They
call this Republican map
ﬂyover country, they call
us deplorables, they fear
our faith, they fear our
strength, they fear our
unity, they fear our vote,
and they fear our president.”
The political fallout

from the vote will reverberate across an already
polarized country with
divergent views of
Trump’s July phone call
when Trump asked Zelenskiy to investigate Democrats in the 2016 election,
Biden and his son, Hunter, who worked on the
board of a gas company in
Ukraine while his father
was the vice president.
Trump has repeatedly
implored Americans to
read the transcript of the
call he said was “perfect.”
But the facts it revealed,
and those in an anonymous whistleblower’s
complaint that sparked
the probe, are largely
undisputed.
More than a dozen current and former White
House ofﬁcials and diplomats testiﬁed for hours.
The open and closed
sessions under oath
revealed what one called
the “irregular channel”
of foreign policy run by
Trump’s personal lawyer
Rudy Giuliani, which
focused on investigating
the Bidens and alternative theories of 2016
election interference.
The question for lawmakers was whether the
revelations amounted to
impeachable offenses to
be sent to the Senate for
a trial.

Few lawmakers
crossed party lines
without consequence.
Rep. Jeff Van Drew,
D-N.J., who is considering changing parties
over his opposition to
impeachment, sat with
Republicans. Rep. Justin
Amash, the Michigan
conservative who left the
Republican party and
became an independent
over impeachment, said:
“I come to this ﬂoor, not
as a Republican, not as
a Democrat, but as an
American.”
Beyond the impeachments of Andrew Johnson or Bill Clinton, this
ﬁrst impeachment of the
21st century is as much
about what the president
might do in the future as
what he did in the past.
And unlike investigation
of Richard Nixon, who
resigned rather than
face the House vote over
Watergate, the proceedings against Trump are
playing out in an America already of mixed
views over Trump.
Rank and ﬁle Democrats said they were
willing to lose their jobs
to protect the democracy from Trump. Some
newly elected freshman
remained in the chamber
for hours during the
debate.

“This is not about
making history, this is
about holding a lawless
president accountable,”
said Rep. David Cicilline, D-R.I.
GOP Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia said of
the Democrats: “You’ve
been wanting to do this
ever since the gentleman
was elected.’’
Top Republicans,
including Rep. Devin
Nunes on the Intelligence Committee,
called the Ukraine probe
little more than the lowbudget sequel to former
special counsel Robert
Mueller’s investigation of
Russian interference in
the 2016 election.
Mueller spent two
years investigating the
potential links between
Moscow and the Trump
campaign, but testiﬁed
in July that his team
could not establish that
Trump conspired or
coordinated with Russia
to throw the election.
Mueller did say he could
not exonerate Trump of
trying to obstruct the
investigation, but he
left that for Congress to
decide.
The next day, Trump
called Ukraine. Not quite
four months later, a week
before Christmas, Trump
was impeached.

with some of the things
they were saying that
were false,” referring
to the statements about
alleged gun sales. The
attorney, public defender
K. Anthony Thomas,
didn’t conﬁrm that
account.
A-Hady, who claimed
in court Monday that
his name actually is
spelled Hady, hasn’t been
charged with providing
any of the weapons used
in the Dec. 10 Jersey
City shootings by two
attackers authorities
say were motivated by
anti-Jewish and anti-law
enforcement hatred.
Four people were killed,
including a Jersey City
police detective who was
shot before the attackers
drove to the market.

A-Hady’s number was
found in the pants pocket
of David Anderson, one
of two people killed by
police after the hourslong standoff at the JC
Kosher Supermarket.
Anderson and Francine
Graham killed Jersey
City Police Det. Joseph
Seals before driving
about a mile to the store,
where they killed three
people inside, according
to authorities.
Anderson and Graham
are also prime suspects
in the slaying of a livery
driver found dead in
a car trunk in nearby
Bayonne the previous
weekend, authorities
have said.
Law enforcement ofﬁcials have said Anderson
and Graham appear to

have acted alone when
they targeted the market,
even though they had
expressed interest in a
fringe religious group
that often disparages
whites and Jews.
They were armed with
multiple weapons including an AR-15-style riﬂe
and a shotgun, and a pipe
bomb was also found in
the stolen U-Haul van
they drove to the market.
Two of the weapons used
by Anderson and Graham
were bought by Graham
in Ohio last year, police
have said. It’s not known
where they got the three
other guns.
The FBI said a search
of A-Hady’s residence
and a pawn shop where
he works in Keyport,
about 15 miles south

of where the shootings
occurred, yielded weapons including three AR15-style assault riﬂes,
three handguns and
one shotgun as well as
more than 400 rounds of
ammunition. Authorities
have charged A-Hady
with being a felon in possession of a ﬁrearm.
Prosecutors told the
judge Wednesday that
direct and circumstantial
evidence shows A-Hady
was buying and selling
riﬂes including AR-15
assault weapons. Shortly
after that, the hearing
was adjourned.
A-Hady’s attorney had
sought to have his client
released on $100,000
bond secured by his family’s residence and business.

NEW YORK — Scientists say they have ﬁnally
calculated the age of the
youngest known remains
of Homo erectus, which
is generally considered an
ancestor of our species.
The fossilized skull fragments and other bones
were uncovered on the
Indonesian island of Java
in the 1930s. Determining
their age has been a scientiﬁc challenge, and a wide
range has been proposed by
numerous studies.
In a report released
Wednesday by the journal
Nature, scientists conclude
the remains are between
108,000 and 117,000 years
old. Researchers used
ﬁve dating techniques on
sediments and fossil animal
bones from the area, combining 52 age estimates for
the analysis. The project
took 13 years to complete.

date this site more thoroughly,” said paleoanthro-

WEATHER HISTORY
Dry weather is usually in the cards
at Las Vegas, Nev., but a rare heavy
rainstorm hit the city on Dec. 19,
1984. Local ﬂooding deposited silt

Bulldogs
rally past
Meigs, 57-55
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

THE PLAINS, Ohio — All the luck associated
with Friday the 13th, only four days later.
Host Athens overcame a 21-point halftime
deﬁcit and used a 26-12 fourth quarter charge to
sneak away from McAfee Gymnasium on Tuesday
night with a 57-55 victory over the Meigs boys
basketball team in a Tri-Valley Conference Ohio
Division matchup in Athens County.
The Marauders (4-2, 2-1 TVC Ohio) simply
dominated the ﬁrst half as the guests allowed only
ﬁve ﬁeld goals before the break and established
a 21-4 cushion early into the second frame. MHS
also led 18-4 after one period of play.
The Bulldogs countered with six straight points
to close to within 11, but the Maroon and Gold
answered with a 13-3 surge to close out the half en
route to a 34-13 lead.
Brayden Whiting scored seven points as part of
an 18-9 third quarter push that allowed the Green
and Gold to whittle the deﬁcit down to 43-31
entering the ﬁnale.
Meigs made two ﬁeld goals and netted only
9-of-19 free throws down the stretch run, which
opened the door for AHS to make a late surge.
Brayden Markins scored 10 points while leading
the Bulldogs’ 14-point swing, completing the epic
comeback for a 2-point triumph.
The Marauders made 21 total ﬁeld goals —
including a trio of 3-pointers — and also went
10-of-24 at the free throw line for 42 percent.
Weston Baer paced MHS with a game-high 20
points, 16 of which came in the ﬁrst half. Coulter
Cleland was next with 11 points, followed by
Wyatt Hoover and Bobby Musser with respective
efforts of eight and seven markers.
Cameron Burnem and Cory Cox completed the
Marauder tally with four and three points, respectively.
Athens made 21 total ﬁeld goals — four of
which were trifectas — and also went 11-of-16 at
the charity stripe for 69 percent.
Whiting led AHS with 15 points and Markins
was next with 13 points, followed by Nate Trainer
and Will Matters with respective tallies of eight
and seven markers.
Andrew Stephens and Isaiah Butcher were next
with ﬁve points apiece, while Reece Wallace completed the winning total with four points.
Meigs returns to TVC Ohio action Friday when
it hosts Alexander at 7 p.m.

Rebels outlast Southern, 56-51
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

MERCERVILLE, Ohio
— It’s never over until it’s
over.
The South Gallia boys
basketball team let an
18-point third quarter slip
away, but ultimately broke
away from a 51-all tie
with ﬁve unanswered free
throws in the ﬁnal minute
to claim a hard-fought
56-51 victory over visiting Southern on Tuesday
night in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division
matchup in Gallia County.
The Rebels (5-1, 3-1
TVC Hocking) never
trailed after the 1:06
mark of the ﬁrst quarter
as the hosts built an early
18-14 lead, then made an
impressive 19-8 charge in
the second period while
extending their cushion
out to 37-32 at the break.
The Red and Gold —
behind 3-pointers from
Jaxxin Mabe and Layne
Ours — made a 7-3 run
out of the halftime gates
and ultimately secured
the largest lead of the
game at 43-25 with 5:40
left in the third.
And then, as the game
appeared to be getting
out of reach … the Tornadoes made one furious
charge to get right back
in it.
SHS (3-4, 2-1) ended
the ﬁnal 5:29 of the third
canto with a small 7-4 run
to close to within 47-32,
then limited the hosts to
just 1-of-9 shooting while
forcing seven turnovers
down the stretch —

Southern senior Landen Hill (4) releases a shot attempt over a pair
of South Gallia defenders during the second half of Tuesday night’s
TVC Hocking boys basketball contest in Mercerville, Ohio.

Gold to make one ﬁnal
push at a comeback.
Southern hit four of
its ﬁrst six shot attempts
during a pivotal 18-3
charge that turned a
15-point deﬁcit into a
tie ball game with 2:14
remaining.
Both teams traded a
single free throw for a
51-all contest with 1:02
left, but Southern was
never closer the rest of
the way.
Ours made the ﬁrst of
two free throw attempts
with 59.8 seconds left for
a permanent lead, then
added another freebie
with 36.8 seconds remaining for a 53-51 edge.
Southern had a contest-

ed layup attempt roll completely around and out of
the rim with 15 seconds
left, and the rebound was
hauled in Jared Burdette.
Burdette was fouled and
canned both free throws
with 13.4 ticks remaining
for a 2-possession lead of
55-51.
Burdette added the
back end of two charity
tosses with 3.4 seconds
left, wrapping up the
eventual 5-point outcome.
Both teams ended up
shooting 35 percent from
the ﬁeld, but the difference ultimately came
down to 3-point shooting
and free throw shooting.
The Rebels netted
10-of-25 trifecta attempts

and also went 10-of-14 at
the line for 71 percent,
while the guests made
4-of-21 3-point tries while
sinking 15-of-27 charity
tosses for 56 percent.
South Gallia made only
three of its ﬁnal 15 shot
attempts in regulation,
but also went 6-of-10
at the line in the fourth
quarter. SHS, conversely,
went 7-of-11 at the stripe
in the ﬁnale, but also
missed at least two freebie opportunities in each
period.
After a roller-coaster
evening of emotions,
SGHS coach Kent Wolfe
was very thankful to
be leaving the friendly
conﬁnes with a victory
— even if it didn’t end as
promising as it started.
As the third year mentor noted, it’s all part of
the learning curve for
a still relatively young
group of hoopsters.
“We still have some
inexperienced players out
there and we reached a
point there in the fourth
quarter that we just didn’t
want the ball. We got nervous and we didn’t play
with any kind of comfort
level, and you have to
give Southern a lot of
credit for that,” Wolfe
said. “We knew Southern
was going to come out
and throw their punch,
and that came in the
fourth quarter. We didn’t
necessarily handle that
situation well, but give
our kids credit because
we found a way to win
this game.

Baltimore Ravens tie Pro Bowl record
Twelve Baltimore
Ravens, including
second-year quarterback Lamar Jackson,
and seven New Orleans
Saints, highlighted by
league-leading receiver
Michael Thomas, have
made the Pro Bowl.
Baltimore tied the
record for Pro Bowl
players set by Miami in
1973. The NFL released
the rosters Tuesday
night for the game in
Orlando, Florida, on Jan.
26.
Joining Jackson from
the Ravens, who at 12-2
have the league’s best
record, are tight end
Mark Andrews, long
snapper Morgan Cox,
cornerbacks Marcus
Peters and Marlon
Humphrey, running back
Mark Ingram, linebacker
Matthew Judon, fullback
Patrick Ricard, tackle
Ronnie Stanley, safety
Earl Thomas, kicker
Justin Tucker, and guard
Marshal Yanda.
“This honor is all
about my teammates and

our coaches, because
without them, the success we’ve had as a team
wouldn’t be possible,”
Jackson said. “I’m also
grateful for all the fans
who continue to support
us and who have helped
make this season so
special. Ultimately, it’s
about winning, and we
still have a lot of work to
do before we accomplish
our biggest goals.”
Thirty teams had at
least one player selected
and 24 clubs had multiple players chosen. The
New York Giants and
Miami Dolphins failed
to get any Pro Bowlers.
Players on the two Super
Bowl teams will withdraw from the Pro Bowl
and be replaced.
Twenty-ﬁve of the
players selected made it
for the ﬁrst time, including three rookies: San
Francisco defensive end
Nick Bosa, Kansas City
return specialist Mecole
Hardman and New
Orleans return specialist
Deonte Harris.

The Pro Bowl coaching staffs will be from
the losing teams in the
AFC and NFC divisional
playoffs with the best
regular-season records.
Other AFC quarterbacks are Patrick
Mahomes of Kansas City
and Deshaun Watson of
Houston. The NFC QBs
are Drew Brees of New
Orleans, Aaron Rodgers
of Green Bay and Russell
Wilson of Seattle.
Perhaps the most starstudded spot on offense
is tight end with San
Francisco’s George Kittle, Philadelphia’s Zach
Ertz, Kansas City’s Travis Kelce and Baltimore’s
Andrews.
Defensive standouts include Buffalo’s
Tre’Davious White, who
is tied for the league
lead with New England’s
Stephon Gilmore with
six interceptions. They
are the top AFC cornerbacks.
NFL sacks leader Shaquil Barrett of Tampa
Bay is on the NFC

Rebels
From page 1B

“We need to do a better of job of taking care of
the ball in late-game situations, but the kids still did
enough down the stretch to get out of here with a
win. We are very pleased to be 5-1 right now, but we
still have a lot of things to improve on.”
Conversely, SHS coach Jeff Caldwell was pleased
with how his troops didn’t quit when adversity hit.
The 12th year mentor noted, however, that when
you dig a large hole, it leaves very little room to miss
opportunities when they present themselves.
“I know we have a pretty good team here. It’s tough
when you get in the hole we were in tonight, but our
kids showed a lot of guts and kept playing hard until
the very end. We had it tied up with two minutes
to go, but we never could catch that big break from
there,” Caldwell said. “I thought our defense was really giving them ﬁts there in the fourth, but I also wish
we would have been a little smarter on the defensive
end. We gave up a few fouls that we didn’t need to,
and that ended up putting them on the line a little
sooner than we needed to.
“Give credit to South Gallia though because they
have a good ball team over there. As I said though, I
think we have a pretty good ball club too. We’ll learn
from this one and keep working on getting better.
We’ll just pick up the pieces and start focusing on
Federal Hocking this Friday.”
There were three ties and ﬁve lead changes over the
course of the opening eight minutes, with Southern’s
largest lead coming at 8-5 with 5:26 left in the ﬁrst
frame.
SGHS, on the other hand, never trailed again after
an Ours basket with 1:06 remaining gave the hosts a
16-14 edge.
The Rebels — who hit seven trifectas in the ﬁrst
half — made a 12-4 charge over the opening 5:25 of
the second stanza, allowing the hosts to take their
ﬁrst double-digit lead at 30-18.
Cole Steele’s bucket with 1:41 left in the half cut the
deﬁcit down to 33-22, but things took an interesting
turn roughly a minute later.
As South Gallia attempted to inbound the ball from
underneath the SHS baseline, a Southern player made
contact with the Rebel player attempting to get the
ball inbounded.
Because of the contact, the Tornadoes were
whistled for an intentional foul — sending Brayden
Hammond to the free throw line with 33 seconds left
in the half.
Hammond nailed both free throws, then took over
possession. Tristan Saber was later fouled and made
both charity tosses with 26.1 seconds remaining, giving the Red and Gold a sizable 37-22 advantage entering the intermission.
South Gallia outrebounded the guests by a 34-27
overall margin, including a 10-7 edge on the offensive
glass. The hosts committed 17 of the 32 turnovers
in the game, but also had a dozen turnovers after the
break. SHS, conversely, had eight giveaways after
halftime.
Mabe paced South Gallia — which went 18-of-52
from the ﬁeld — with 15 points, followed by Burdette
with 11 points and Saber with nine markers. Hammond was next with eight points, with Ours adding
six points to go along with a game-high 13 rebounds.
Kyle Northup and Andrew Small completed the
winning tally with ﬁve and two points respectively.
Northup and Hammond also hauled in six rebounds
each.
Steele led Southern — which netted 16-of-46 ﬁeld
goal attempts — with a game-high 18 points, followed
by Arrow Drummer with 16 points and Landen Hill
with nine markers. Coltin Parker and Chase Bailey
completed the scoring with respective efforts of six
and two points.
Drummer and Hill also grabbed seven rebounds
apiece in the setback.
Southern returns to action Friday as it travels to
Stewart to face Federal Hocking in a TVC Hocking
contest at 6 p.m.
South Gallia next plays on Saturday, Dec. 28, when
it heads to Willow Wood for a non-conference matchup with Symmes Valley at 6 p.m.

South Point Sports betting’s expansion faces more tests
tops Blue
Devils, 81-65
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

SOUTH POINT, Ohio — It was raining threes
… and the Blue Devils didn’t have an umbrella.
Host South Point netted 13 trifectas after
falling behind by three possessions in the ﬁrst
quarter and ultimately cruised to an 81-65 victory over the Gallia Academy boys basketball
team Tuesday night in an Ohio Valley Conference contest in Lawrence County.
The visiting Blue Devils (1-3, 0-2 OVC) built
a 15-7 advantage eight minutes into regulation,
led by the 1-2 punch of Isaac Clary and Logan
Blouir with a combined 11 points. It was also
the only period in which the Pointers — who
mustered only three ﬁeld goals — didn’t make a
single attempt outside of the arc.
That all changed, however, in the second
canto as Austin Webb drilled three triples and
scored 19 points total during a 27-11 surge that
resulted in a 35-26 lead entering the break.
Chance Gunther and Brody Blackwell each
netted three trifectas for the Blue and Gold as
part of a 25-24 third quarter push that extended
the lead out to 60-50. Blouir also hit two
3-pointers and had 10 points in the third frame
for the Blue and White.
Webb scored 11 points in the ﬁnale and
Damon Cremeens chipped in nine markers for
GAHS down the stretch, but the hosts ultimately won the fourth by a 21-15 margin and
wrapped up the 16-point outcome.
The Blue Devils netted 26 total ﬁeld goals —
including ﬁve 3-pointers — and also went 8-of14 at the free throw line for 57 percent.
Cremeens paced the guests with 22 points,
followed by Blouir with 18 points and Clary
with 16 markers. Cooper Davis and Justin Wilcoxon were next with three points each, while
Reece Thomas and Ben Cox completed things
with respective efforts of two points and one
point.
South Point (2-2, 2-1) made 32 ﬁeld goals
overall and also went 4-of-5 at the charity stripe
for 80 percent.
Webb led the Pointers with a game-high 33
points, followed by Gunther with 19 points
and Nakyan Turner with 10 markers. Blackwell
and Darryl Taylor were next with nine and six
points, while Kyle Badgett and Mason Kazee
completed the winning tally with two points
apiece.
Gallia Academy returns to action Friday when
it hosts River Valley in a non-conference battle
of Gallia County programs at 7 p.m.

Federal Hocking
fends off White
Falcons, 77-34
By Alex Hawley

LINCOLN, R.I. (AP) — The
line for the ticket windows at a
Rhode Island casino’s sportsbook
stretched to the door on one afternoon last month: Gamblers were
cashing in their winnings from
betting on the victorious New England Patriots the day before and
placing new wagers for that night.
“This happens pretty much every
Monday,” said Craig Sculos, vice
president and general manager
at Twin River Casino Hotel, just
north of Providence. “The building
takes on this unique rhythm.”
The casino adds extra staff at its
sportsbook on Mondays. And since
it’s the only New England state
that has launched sports betting,
Rhode Island is the closest place
for Patriots fans to legally bet on
their team.
This could be the scene in more
states in the years ahead. Legalized sports betting has caught on
quickly since a U.S. Supreme Court
ruling in 2018 allowed for it to be
legalized in every state; 2020 will
be a test of whether that rapid
expansion continues.
Sports wagers can be made legally in 13 states, while sportsbooks
have been legalized in another halfdozen where they’re not yet running. In all, about one-third of the
nation’s population lives in a state
where legal sports betting has been
authorized.

doesn’t have any legalized gambling outside the lottery. He wants
to use the revenue to beef up a
lottery-funded college scholarship
program.
“If we’re going to look at sports
betting, we’ve got to look at the
whole thing,” said Beach, a Republican.
The Georgia effort is getting
pushback from the Faith and
Freedom Coalition, which has its
headquarters there. The socially
conservative group says all forms
of gambling can lead to addiction,
bankruptcy and crime.
“It causes all of us to pay, whether or not we play,” spokeswoman
Virginia Galloway said.

The biggest states
So far, the three most populous
states — California, Texas and
Florida — have not legalized
sportsbooks.
But the industry is watching
them, along with the fourth-largest,
New York, where bets can be made
only in person at four upstate
casinos located far from the New
York City area’s massive population. Whether those four casinos
can add online betting without an
amendment to the state constitution is under debate.
In California, a group of Native
American tribes has proposed a
ballot measure for next year. The

In Iowa, Nevada and some other
states, bettors must ﬁrst register in

Tax rates range from less than
7% of the books’ winnings in Iowa
and Nevada to more than 30% in
Pennsylvania. In states such as
Delaware and Oregon, where the
lottery owns sports betting, the
state’s share is even higher.
In some states, only casinos or
racetracks can apply for licenses; in
others, online companies such as
FanDuel and DraftKings can apply
for licenses without partnering
with casinos or tracks.
“We’re seeing an incredible
amount of diversity,” said Chris
Grove, a managing director with
Eilers &amp; Krejcik Gaming. “I suspect that will persist.”

How it’s doing
From July (the start of most
states’ ﬁscal years) through October, sports betting generated about
$50 million in state tax revenue
across the country according to an
Associated Press analysis of data
from the states.
New Jersey accounted for more
than $15 million of that, making sports betting more lucrative
for the state than in Nevada,
which lost its monopoly after the
Supreme Court decision. But states
including Rhode Island and West
Virginia are falling short of their
own projections for revenue.
Rhode Island state Senate
President Dominick Ruggerio, a
Democrat, the biggest advocate
for legalized sports betting in the
legislature, is unsure whether the
state will hit its $22.7 million target and worries about potential
competition from nearby states.
But even if it falls short of projections, sports betting is bringing the
state revenue it didn’t have before,
Ruggerio added.
Sculos, the Rhode Island casino
executive, views sports betting
as another amenity rather than a
windfall for casinos or the states
where they’re located. But it has
drawn people to the casino who
had never before visited.
Sculos visited the sportsbook on
a recent Sunday when it was full of
gamblers clapping and cheering.
“Because all of the television
screens are lit up for the NFL
games, you have no idea what
they’re clapping and cheering
about, but they were having just
the best time,” he said. “That environment is really unique. You see
it a little bit at a craps table and a
roulette table, but craps might have
10, 12, 15 people standing around
it. We could have over 200 people
here at once. … It’s a fun place to
be.”

STEWART, Ohio — By the time the shots started falling, it was too little, too late.
The Wahama boys basketball team tallied over
half of its points in the ﬁnal eight minutes of
Tuesday’s Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division
game at McInturf Gymnasium, where the host
Lancers took a 77-34 victory.
Federal Hocking (5-1, 4-0 TVC Hocking) led
25-3 at the end of the ﬁrst quarter, and went on a
15-0 run in the ﬁrst four minutes of the second.
The Lancers outscored Wahama (0-3, 0-3) 13-to-9
over the remainder of the half and went into the
break with a 53-12 advantage.
A 12-to-4 third quarter gave the Lancers a 65-16
lead headed into the fourth quarter, when the
White Falcons came up with 18 points.
In the 77-34 victory, Federal Hocking shot
10-of-14 (71.4 percent) from the free throw line.
Meanwhile, the Red and White made 1-of-5 (20
percent) foul shots.
Abram Pauley led the White Falcons with 15
points, combining four two-pointers, a pair of
triples and one free throw. Ethyn Barnitz was
next with 13 points, nine of which came from
beyond the arc in the fourth quarter. Rounding
out the WHS total were Harrison Panko-Shields
and Michael VanMatre with four and two points
respectively.
Hunter Smith and Brad Russell collected 16
points apiece to lead the Lancers. Collin Jarvis
scored seven in the win, Wes Carpenter, Terrell
Mayle, Nathaniel Massie and Elijah Lucas had six
each, Brandon Bond, Cedric Newman and Quinton Basim added four apiece, while Adam Douglas
came up with two markers.
These teams will meet again on Jan. 17 at Gary
Clark Court in Mason.
The Red and White return home next, as they
host Eastern on Friday.

Ex-boxing champ hit with $830K
judgment in sex assault claim
CLEVELAND (AP) — An Ohio
judge awarded $830,000 to a
woman who claimed former boxing champion Adrien “The Problem” Broner sexually assaulted her
at a Cleveland nightclub.
The default judgement was
delivered Tuesday after Broner
failed to defend himself in the
lawsuit.
The Cincinnati native was
accused in the lawsuit and a criminal case of pinning a woman he
didn’t know on a couch in June
2018 and kissing her against
her will as she struggled to free
herself. The lawsuit said one of
Broner’s friends pulled him off
the woman after someone took a

photo of the assault.
Broner, 30, was originally
charged with sexual imposition
in Cuyahoga County. He pleaded
guilty in April to misdemeanor
charges of assault and unlawful
restraint and was sentenced to
probation.
Attorneys for Broner in the
lawsuit received permission from
Judge Nancy Margaret Russo in
November to withdraw from the
case, leaving Broner to defend
himself. He appeared at a default
hearing without representation
on Dec. 3 but never appeared for
a deposition or responded to discovery requests, said the woman’s
attorney, Ashlie Case Sletvold.
