ROCKSPRINGS — It is said that it can be lonely at the top, but that is not the case with the Meigs High School Class of 2018 as four young men have earned the top spot in the graduating class. Cole Hoffman, Brad Logan, Gregory Sheets II, and Bryce Swatzel have been named the valedictorians of the Class of 2018, with Savannah Hope Diehl as the Salutatorian. The four valedictorians acknowledged their drive to remain at the top with the others helped to determine the classes that they took during their high school years. For example, if one decided to take AP Chemistry then the others would take the class as well. Hoffman said that the goal throughout was to do his best, and if that meant being valedictorian that would be the outcome. Hoffman, of Middleport, is the son of David and Kathie Hoffman. He plans to attend Ohio State University to major in environmental science. During his time at Meigs High GRADUATION The Meigs High School Class of 2018 will receive their diplomas on Friday evening, May 25, at 8 p.m. in the high school gymnasium.

Alumni events Ohio House delays vote on successor COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — House Republicans in Ohio again brought their decision on former House Speaker Cliff Rosenberger’s successor to a halt, calling off a scheduled vote that’s needed before any more laws can be made. The ofﬁcial reason for canceling Tuesday’s vote on an interim speaker was too few lawmakers could attend. However, there were also rumblings that the impasse that kept Republicans from selecting a speaker last week hadn’t been resolved. Beyond that, Democrats had challenged Tuesday’s session as improper, and raised the possibility that all the bills passed under a speaker selected in violation of the rules could be jeopardized. State Rep. David Leland, a Columbus Democrat, said the date was added to the House calendar by the chamber’s acting leader, President Pro Tem Kirk Schuring, while House rules say only the speaker has that power. Schuring’s spokesman, Brad Miller, dismissed that argument. “Throughout the 3 (WSAZ) 4 (WTAP) 6 (WSYX) 7 (WOUB) 8 (WCHS) 10 (WBNS) 11 (WVAH) 12 (WVPB) 13 (WOWK) CABLE 6 PM 6:30 NBC Nightly News (N) NBC Nightly News (N) ABC World News (N) Travels With Darley 6:30 Middleport yard of the week Grant applications MEIGS COUNTY — Applications for the ﬁrst 7 PM 7:30 7 PM 7:30 8 PM 8:30 9 PM 9:30 10 PM 10:30 Law & Order: S.V.U.

The Clarksville Republican resigned amid FBI questioning surrounding his international travel and lavish lifestyle, saying he had broken no laws but knew the process would take time and be a distraction. Members of the Republican caucus he formerly led met last week to select a person to ﬁll Rosenberger’s role through the end of the year — but they couldn’t come to an agreement.

IN BRIEF Prison in body parts probe DETROIT (AP) — A Michigan man who supplied cadavers and body parts for medical training was sentenced Tuesday to nine years in prison for failing to disclose that they were infected with hepatitis or HIV. Arthur Rathburn expressed no regrets during rambling remarks to a federal judge. He blamed any problems on groups that provided him with bodies and insisted the “bequests were put to great use.” Rathburn, 64, of Grosse Pointe Park, was convicted of fraud and shipping hazardous materials. Investigators say he regularly provided body parts to medical associations for various seminars but didn’t tell them that the parts came from people with infectious diseases. “Mr. Rathburn knew this and chose to proﬁt,” said Assistant U.S. Attorney John Neal, who wanted a 14-year prison sentence and called the crimes “deplorable.” Trump suggests summit could be delayed By Zeke Miller and Catherine Lucey Associated Press WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump suggested Tuesday that a planned historic meeting with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un could be delayed. He said, “There’s a very substantial chance that it won’t work out” for June 12. Trump raised the possibility that the meeting could be pushed back during a White House meeting with South Korea President Moon Jae-in, trying to coordinate strategy as concerns mounted over ensuring a successful outcome for the North Korea summit. Trump told reporters: “If it doesn’t happen, maybe it happens later,” reﬂecting recent setbacks in efforts to bring about reconciliation between the two Koreas. The North pulled out of planned peace talks with the South last week, objecting to long-scheduled joint military exercises between U.S. and Republic of Korea forces. And the North threatened to abandon the planned Trump-Kim meeting over U.S. insistence on denuclearizing the peninsula, issuing a harshly worded missive that the White House dismissed as a negotiating ploy. “There are certain conditions that we want,” Trump said Tuesday. He added if they aren’t met, “we won’t have the meeting.” He declined to elaborate on those conditions. Trump said “there’s a very substantial chance” that the meeting won’t take place on June 12. “That doesn’t mean it won’t work out over a period of time,” he said. “But it may not work out for June 12. But there is a good chance that we’ll have the meeting.” Moon said in the Oval Ofﬁce that the “fate and the future” of the Korean Peninsula hinged on the talks, telling the U.S. president that they were “one step closer” to the dream of a denuclearized Korean Peninsula. Trump said he’d noticed “a little change” in Kim Jong Un’s “attitude” after Kim took a second trip to China this month in the run-up to the summit. “I don’t like that,” Trump said. Trump said he hoped that Chinese President Xi Jinping was committed to the goal of denuclearizing the Korean peninsula, calling him a world-class poker player.

Letart Nature Park Organization (LNPO) President Marilyn Kearns shared she is hoping for a good turnout this weekend. Kearns commented the members of LNPO are hoping to have most of the events outdoors, but if inclement weather should strike, several organizations have donated tents and the community center will be available on Friday and Saturday. “We are all very excited and a bit nervous to have an event of this size coming to the park. Our main objective is to honor our veterans, but we also hope to showcase the park - it is beautiful this time of year,” said Kearns. The ofﬁcial opening will begin at 8 a.m., Friday, May 25 with the ﬂag raising. A ceremony will be held at 10 a.m. with assistance from local veterans which will include opening prayer, guest speakers, acknowledgement of veterans in attendance, and explanation of Missing Man Table. On Saturday, May 26 the event will also open with a prayer and ceremony at 10 a.m. Kearns stated, “We encourage those who security, but also predicting an economic revitalization for the North. “I will guarantee his safety, yes,” Trump said, if Kim agrees to complete, veriﬁable, and irreversible denuclearization. He said if an agreement is reached, China, Japan and South Korea would invest large sums to “make North Korea great.” Trump said the longterm status of the peninsula will be up to the North and South, and that the immediate goal for his summit is “two successful Koreas.” He added, “Ultimately, maybe someday in the future” you’ll “go back to one Korea.” The two Koreas both seek reuniﬁcation of the divided Korean peninsula on their own terms but it has always been a distant aspiration because of the incompatibility of their political systems and their mutual suspicion. A PROPER ESCORT The Traveling Korean War Memorial will be escorted by the Patriot Guard Riders as it travels through Pomeroy, Ohio, Mason, Hartford, and New Haven reaching the final destination at the Letart Nature Park between 6-6:30 p.m., this Thursday evening.

The new Duchess of Sussex gave the world a taste of two distinctly Dahleen different cultures — that of a black Glanton Contributing girl raised by a single mother in Los Angeles and a royal whose family columnist traditions in England go back a thousand years — blended into one. That wasn’t an easy feat. But the world was watching, and the duchess had a message to send. For the record, though, the ceremony was a bit over the top as far as most African-American weddings go. But perhaps it needed to be, in order to make her point. The long-winded preacher and the gospel choir were unique vestiges of the black church experience, but not often incorporated into formal weddings. Except for those that include African traditions such as “jumping the broom,” most black wedding ceremonies are as subdued as any other traditional ceremony. The bride picked Michael Curry, the AfricanAmerican presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church in the United States, to deliver the wedding address. His message about the power of love, infused with quotes from the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., was appropriate at a time the world is so divided. But it went on and on — for more than 13 minutes. Many in the audience at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle obviously had never seen such a thing. Some of them didn’t know what to make of it. But that’s OK. Beyond the animated preacher, a choir singing Ben E. King’s “Stand by Me” and 19-year-old African-American cellist, the wedding provided so many more poignant moments that pointed to the fact that people have more in common than they might think. With so much diversity on display, it would have been difﬁcult to ignore the stature of this historic event — the ﬁrst interracial marriage within the British royal family. To understand why this wedding was of interest to many African-Americans, you would have to know the importance of breaking through barriers, regardless of where they are. The duchess has broken through yet another, and as a result has a powerful platform from which she can speak. And the wedding itself spoke volumes. Many wondered if the duchess, being born to a black mother and a white father, would be strong enough in her identity to say to the world, “I am proud of my African-American roots.” Biracial children in America often have difﬁculty ﬁguring out where they ﬁt in or even where they are the most accepted. Often, society ends up making the decision for them. She did not hesitate. And that should make us proud. But whenever there is a ﬁrst African-American anything, there are always questions and doubt. Many of us seemed to be looking for clues as to whether this exchange of cultural ideals would work. In other words, would she really be accepted? The royal family seemed to go out of its way to send the message that the duchess was a fully welcome member of the family. When her father suffered a heart attack and could not attend the wedding, Prince Charles, in perhaps the most welcoming gesture he could make, escorted the bride partway down the aisle. Near the end of the ceremony, Charles took the hand of Doria Ragland, the duchess’s mother, to escort her to watch their children sign the register. And as the family exited the church, he walked down the steps with his wife, Camilla, on one arm and Ragland on the other. By no means does this imply that the families will become close friends. But it is interesting to note how natural it all seemed. Credit also has to go to Ragland. Before the wedding, there was lots of discussion among African-Americans about what she would do with her hair. Would she discard her signature dreadlocks in favor of a straightened look? Would she remove her studded nose ring for such a momentous occasion? The answer to both was no. And that said a lot about who she is. It is easy to imagine the pressure Ragland must have felt to conform to what is considered the norm. Knowing that eyes around the world would be watching to see how this regular woman, a social worker and yoga instructor, would react on the world stage. She did not waver. Perhaps that is where the duchess gets her strength. Though the love story of Harry and Meghan reads like a fairy tale, the idea that an AfricanAmerican woman married a prince is not what makes it so important. It is that the duchess is a strong and independent woman who now has an opportunity to bring about change in many parts of the world.

But when you tip in a restaurant, some of it ends up in the pockets of those who toil behind the scenes. So why not reward the presumably dreadfully compensated workers who keep the breakfast buffets running smoothly? I know, it’s not a skilled job. But when it’s done poorly, the breakfast experience can be frustrating to unpleasant. And when it’s done well, as the women were doing it that morning, it’s a beautiful thing. I threw in a couple of bucks — not a full restaurant tip, maybe 10 percent of the cash value of our two meals — and have done so ever since, even though most chain hotels seem to forbid tip jars (the hotel in West Virginia was not part of any franchise) so I have to hand them the bills or lay them on the counter in the prep kitchen. This topic touched off a vigorous conversation on my Facebook page recently, and I was surprised at how few people balked at the idea. The “I’ve been doing this for years” and “I’ve never thought about it but now that you mention it I will” responses vastly outnumbered the “Oh, come on, where will it all end!” responses. I was also struck by the near unanimity of approval for the idea of leaving a tip behind for the usually unseen housekeeper (archaically known as the “maid”), given that a column I published on that topic in 2005 touched off a furious debate. I’m glad. These are not greedy people on the receiving end of such tips. They work hard to scrape by, most of them. A few bucks — a ﬁver for a clean hotel room — isn’t going to make a huge difference in their lives, but I’ll bet the thought counts as well. TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Wednesday, May 23, the 143rd day of 2018. There are 222 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History On May 23, 1618, the Defenestration of Prague took place as Bohemian Protestants angry over what they saw as a threat to their religious freedom threw two Catholic imperial regents and their secretary out an upper-story palace window; the men survived the incident, which helped trigger the Thirty Years’ War. On this date In 1430, Joan of Arc was captured by the Burgundians, who sold her to the English. In 1533, the marriage of England’s King Henry VIII to Catherine of Aragon was declared null and void by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Cranmer. In 1788, South Carolina became the eighth state to ratify the United States Constitution. In 1814, a third version of Beethoven’s only opera, “Fidelio,” had its world premiere in Vienna. In 1915, Italy declared war on Austria-Hungary during World War I. In 1934, bank robbers Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker were shot to death in a police ambush in Bienville Parish, Louisiana. In 1939, the Navy submarine USS Squalus sank during a test dive off the New England coast. Thirty-two crew members and one civilian were rescued, but 26 others died; the sub was salvaged and recommissioned the USS Sailﬁsh. In 1945, Nazi ofﬁcial Heinrich Himmler committed suicide by biting into a cyanide capsule while in British custody in Luneburg, Germany. In 1967, Egypt closed the Straits of Tiran to Israeli shipping, an action which helped precipitate war between Israel and its Arab neighbors the following month. In 1977, Moluccan extremists seized a train and a primary school in the Netherlands; the hostage drama ended June 11 as Dutch marines stormed the train, resulting in the deaths of six out of nine hijackers and two hostages, while the school siege ended peacefully. In 1984, Surgeon General C. Everett Koop issued a report saying THOUGHT FOR TODAY “We do not usually look for allies when we love. Indeed, we often look on those who love with us as rivals and trespassers. But we always look for allies when we hate.” — Eric Hoffer American author and philosopher (1902-1983) there was “very solid” evidence linking cigarette smoke to lung disease in non-smokers. In 1993, a jury in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, acquitted Rodney Peairs of manslaughter in the shooting death of Yoshi Hattori, a Japanese exchange student he’d mistaken for an intruder. (Peairs was later found liable in a civil suit brought by Hattori’s parents.) Ten years ago: Hillary Rodham Clinton quickly apologized after citing the 1968 assassination of Robert F. Kennedy as a reason to remain in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination despite increasingly long odds. Televangelist John Hagee (HAY’-gee) parted ways with John McCain following a storm over his endorsement of the Republican presidential candidate. (McCain rejected Hagee’s endorse- ment a day earlier after an audio recording from the late 1990s surfaced in which the preacher suggested that God had sent Adolf Hitler to help Jews reach the Promised Land.) Five years ago: President Barack Obama, in a speech to the National Defense University, defended America’s controversial drone attacks as legal, effective and a necessary linchpin in an evolving U.S. counterterrorism policy, but acknowledged the targeted strikes were no “cure-all” and said he was haunted by the civilians who were unintentionally killed. The Boy Scouts of America threw open its ranks to gay Scouts but not to gay Scout leaders.

(AP) — It’s been 16 years since Mark Martin won the Coca-Cola 600, and a Ford driver has not been to victory lane for the marquee event since. A Ford driver hasn’t hoisted a Cup championship trophy since 2004, either. There have been some highlights during this past decade of mediocrity, but coming up empty every year in the chase for NASCAR’s biggest prize got very tiring to the Ford group. “Four years ago we got very serious about, ‘We don’t just want to be here, we want to be here to win,’” said Mark Rushbrook, global director at Ford Motor Co. “To do that, we knew we had to ﬁx everything.” Ford Performance was launched along with a technical center created as the headquarters for engineers to assist its teams across multiple series. Its ﬁrst success came two years later when Ford returned to Le Mans on the 50th anniversary of its 1966 victory and won the GT class. Gains have been made across all Ford’s motorsports programs, and the company is currently the hottest manufacturer in NASCAR. Ford has won seven of the 12 Cup points races this season, its 2,296 laps led account for 59 percent and Ford drivers have 17 stage victories. Kevin Harvick is the force behind that success with ﬁve Cup victories, including the last two. Add his Saturday night win in the $1 million AllStar race, and Harvick is on a three-race winning streak. That bodes well for Ford in Sunday night’s CocaCola 600, a race Ford drivers won four consecutive years from 1999-2002. The blue oval has not triumphed in NASCAR’s longest race of the year since. Harvick has ﬁve of the Ford seven wins this season, and Joey Logano and Clint Bowyer have also been to victory lane. Ford drivers hold seven of the top 10 spots in the Cup standings. Matt Kenseth, who drove a Ford to two Daytona 500 wins and the 2003 championship, returned to the manufacturer earlier this month to help Roush Fenway Racing catch Ford front-runners StewartHaas Racing and Team Penske. Logano, winner at Talladega this year, noted Toyota was the dominating brand at this point last season. SHR, in its ﬁrst year with Ford, wasn’t a strong title contender and Penske drivers Logano and Brad Keselowski felt overmatched in their aged Fusions. Ford will move to the Mustang in an update in 2019, but tweaks to the rules package have helped Ford teams catch Toyota. “Last year, the Toyotas were on ﬁre and really good,” Logano said. “I think this year with some of the rules changes and really the way the rules have been regulated, enforced, it has brought it to more of an equal playing ﬁeld.” Kurt Busch was the last Ford driver to win a Cup title, in the 2004 launch of the playoff system, and it capped consecutive championships for the manufacturer. He believes the commitment from the company has always been the same, from Edsel Ford II on down, but the engineering support has dramatically improved. “The Ford Performance group, I see it everywhere, with all their different forms of motorsport collaborating together,” Busch said. “Whereas Ford Racing before … felt like it was more focused on the NASCAR program and didn’t use information from IndyCar or Cosworth in Formula One or sports cars. What I see now is information channels that are able to communicate quickly and gather data from all different branches of motorsports that Ford is involved in.” Ford Performance initially housed a simulator used exclusively by its NASCAR teams. IMSA and WEC programs began using it, and the simulator has graduated into use for both Ford Performance production cars and now mainstream Ford products. To prepare for Le Mans, the drivers from Chip Ganassi Racing drove thousands of miles of Le Mans simulation so that the track would not be foreign when the manufacturer made its ballyhooed return. Ford’s sole intent was to celebrate its 50th anniversary victory by winning the race, and with just one test on the track before the 24-hour race, the Tech Center was critical in preparing the program.

CLEVELAND (AP) — LeBron James knows the path to the NBA Finals better than anyone in today’s game. And unless the Boston Celtics do something soon, he’ll get there again. James bullied his way to 44 points, surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar atop a postseason list and helped the Cleveland Cavaliers even the Eastern Conference ﬁnals at 2-2 on Monday night with a 111-102 victory over the Celtics, who are looking forward to getting home before their adoring fans. Pushed by a raucous crowd that wasn’t so conﬁdent a few days ago, the Cavs held off Boston’s comeback in the fourth quarter and squared a tight series that is now a best- of-three. Cleveland is trying to become the 20th team — out of 300 — to overcome a 2-0 deﬁcit and James, who has already orchestrated two such rallies and is seeking his eighth straight ﬁnals, is a step closer to a third. To do it again the Cavs will have to win in Boston, where the Celtics are 9-0 this postseason. “We know it’s going to be a hostile environment,” James said. “We know their fans are going to be very energetic. But we have to just have our same mindset we had when we came home for these two games. If our minds are there, we put See CAVS | 10 Photos by Alex Hawley| OVP Sports Eastern skipper Brian Bowen meets with the Eagle infield, during the Division IV district semifinal on May 14 in Chillicothe, Ohio. Eagles soaring into Sweet 16 By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com LANCASTER, Ohio — How sweet it is. The Eastern baseball team baseball team brings a 13-game winning streak into Thursday afternoon’s Division IV, Region 15 semiﬁnal at Beavers Field in Fairﬁeld County, where the 26-2 Eagles will battle 18-8 Centerburg. Eastern — the Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division champion — is back in the regional tournament for the second time in three seasons and the 11th time in school history. However, the Eagles are still in search of their ﬁrst win at the regional level. This will be the seventh time the Eagles have been led into the Sweet 16 by head coach Brian Bowen, who holds a 276-155 record in his 18-year tenure. “They’re all excited about it, excited to get there and excited to have another chance,” Bowen said. “The last time was a 2-1 loss, it was a good game and a tough loss for the kids. They were the underclassmen, some of them are playing different roles now, some of them are playing in similar roles but batting in different spots in the order, so it’s still new and exciting.” The Eagles’ last regional appearence was 2016 — when the current EHS senior leaders were up and coming sophomores — and they fell Sidney Lehman Catholic by a 2-1 count at Carleton Davidson Stadium in Springﬁeld. This time, Eastern will be back at Beavers Field, a closer drive with a familiar atmosphere. “It’s a beautiful ﬁeld and we had a few kids play there in legion-ball,” Bowen said. “It’s just another nice ﬁeld and facility for the kids to enjoy going to and competing on.” The Eagles — the No. 1 seed in the Southeast District — found their way to the regional tournament after a 13-2 mercy rule victory over second-seeded Portsmouth Clay in the district ﬁnal on May 16. Earlier in the postseason, the Eagles defeated Leesburg Fairﬁeld by a 4-0 count for their fourth straight district semiﬁnal win. EHS began the tournament with an 11-0 victory over Federal Hocking for the program’s 21st sectional championship and 13th sectional title in the last 14 years. In three postseason games, the Eagles have outhit opponents by a 31-to-8 clip, while committing just one error and leaving a total of Eastern senior Austin Coleman releases a pitch, during the Eagles’ win over Waterford on May 1 in Tuppers Plains, Ohio. nine runners on base. “Pitching and defense has been outstanding,” Bowen said. “It gives the kids conﬁdence, both giving the pitchers conﬁdence with the great defense behind them, and giving the defense conﬁdence in the pitching. I think it even carries over to the offensive side, they have so much conﬁdence in their pitching and defense that they can relax a little bit and have fun.” At the plate this spring, Austin Coleman leads Eastern with a .506 batting average, followed by Christian Mattox at .431, Josh Brewer at .421 and Ethen Richmond at .413. Kaleb Hill is hitting .386 this season, Nate Durst is at .373, while Matthew Blanchard is batting .347. Also over .300 for the Eagles, Ryan Harbour is hitting .320 and Owen Arix is batting .303. As a team, the Green, White and Gold have pounded out 280 hits, including 41 doubles and ﬁve triples.

Now comes the hard part: Finding a way to victory lane next weekend. After crashing Roger Penske’s front-row party by claiming his third Indianapolis 500 pole-winning run and watching his teammate, Patrick, qualify seventh for the ﬁnal start of her career, Carpenter quickly turned his attention to hosting a bigger family celebration at the track his stepfather’s family owns. “We’ve been in this position before and ran a good race. I thought we had a chance to win (when we won our) ﬁrst pole, we didn’t really have the right game plan,” Carpenter said. “I feel like we’ve learned a lot. I feel like I’ve gotten better since 2014. We’ve got a great package with Chevrolet and ECR and hopefully we’ll be able to be in the mix (next) Sunday.” Carpenter has largely taken a backseat to other prominent story lines this month. Penske’s team earned its 200th career win last week and was in position to claim the top three spots Sunday. Patrick has drawn plenty of attention as she gears up for the ﬁnal stop on her two-race farewell tour. Helio Castroneves had the fastest car in qualifying Saturday and looked like he might break a tie for second by claiming his ﬁfth career Indy pole. Instead, he’ll chase a record-tying fourth 500 win from the No. 8 starting spot. The return of Bump Day left two drivers, James Hinchcliffe and Pippa Mann, searching for ways to get back into the ﬁeld. There was no immediate indication if either had a pathway back though one door closed when IndyCar president of competition and operations Jay Frye told The Associated Press the traditional 33-car ﬁeld would not be expanded. But Carpenter’s surprisingly quick four-lap qualifying run was all the rage Sunday. He was the only driver to top 230 mph, the only one to turn four successive laps over 229 and the only one who beat Penske’s drivers. Carpenter’s average of 229.618 topped Simon Pagenaud’s 228.761 and Will Power’s 228.607. Carpenter has ﬁve career starts from the ﬁrst three rows but hasn’t ﬁnished higher than 10th. “Good job dad!” one of Carpenter’s children said, stealing a hug at the end of the day. Penske took the next three all with drivers who have won series titles — Pagenaud, Power and Josef Newgarden, who qualiﬁed second, third and fourth. “You could say I’m the ﬁrst loser, but I’m still happy,” Pagenaud said after brieﬂy holding No. 1 spot. Patrick enjoyed her ﬁnal qualifying day on the 2.5mile oval. The ﬁrst female to lead at Indy hasn’t competed in an IndyCar since 2011. But she looked relaxed on the ﬁrst run of the pole shootout and posted a number, 228.090, that looked like it might put her in the top three. It’s the fourth time Patrick has qualiﬁed in the top nine, ﬁnishing fourth, eighth and 22nd on the previous occasions. She was equally pleased with how her teammates SHERIFF’S SALE OF REAL ESTATE Houses For Sale +RPH IRU VDOH ZLWK � DFUHV RQ )ODWZRRGV 5G� 3RPHUR\� 2+ �� MERCHANDISE Appliances Houses For Rent Electric Range $150, Dishwasher $65, Jenn-Air Microwave $75 OBO call 740-992-6282 � %HGURRP� � %DWK +RXVH *DOOLSROLV DUHD QR SHWV �� PRQWK SOXV GHSRVLW �� Are you looking to make a difference in someone’s life?

Pigot will start sixth, the outside of Row 2, after going 228.107. “That’s awesome. He deserves it,” Patrick said, referring to Carpenter. The drama that evoked so much intrigue Saturday was missing Sunday. Qualifying went pretty much according to script — until Castroneves came up well short of winning his ﬁfth career Indy pole. He never had a chance after going 228.992 on his ﬁrst lap. “When I was sitting in the car and I heard the 230, I asked the guys ‘Do we have enough gear to do that?’” Castroneves said. “They said ‘Well, with a little help from the wind we could.’” The help never came. Now the focus turns exclusively to race day for Patrick’s grand ﬁnale, Castroneves’ continuing quest to join the four-time winner’s club and Carpenter’s dream of a milk-drenched family reunion.

After a year lost to hoops scandal, Bowen seeks answers By Tim Reynolds Associated Press Brian Bowen had the opportunity to spend a couple of days last week playing in real basketball games, replete with scoreboards and referees and with every courtside seat ﬁlled. It’s unclear when he’ll be able to do that again. Bowen might have been one of the most talkedabout players in NCAA basketball over the last year, without so much as playing a single second of a game. He’s the one-time Louisville commit who left amid massive scandal — the federal probe into the college game, including allegations that his father took money during the recruiting process — and subsequently transferred to South Carolina. But the NCAA hasn’t cleared him yet. It might not. So he’s taking a long look at the NBA, and Bowen’s invitation to the draft combine last week was a factﬁnding mission that will help him decide whether to formally turn pro or return to school with hopes that his collegiate eligibility will be restored so he can play with the Gamecocks. “It’s the biggest thing I’ve ever been through in my life,” Bowen said after one of his 5-on-5 games at the combine. “They took the game away from me, a game I truly love. It made me realize how much passion and love I do have for the game. I put that into my workouts every day and I go as hard as I can.” The 6-foot-7 Bowen of Saginaw, Michigan has until the end of the month to decide whether to keep his name in the draft or not. The draft itself is June 21. And there’s been no indication if the NCAA will offer him any clarity before he has not make his stay-or-go choice. “My lawyer and the school are dealing with it,” Bowen said. His is a most curious case, even in a draft that has a handful of players who have been tainted on some level by the ongoing mess that reverberated through the college game last season and probably will continue having a ripple effect for the foreseeable future. Billy Preston, the 6-1o forward who left Kansas while being investigated by the NCAA and played professionally in Europe, was at the combine trying to show his worth to NBA clubs. Same goes for the 6-4 De’Anthony Melton, who left USC after not being able to play this past season because a family friend was linked to the scandal. Melton said the interviews with teams at the combine had little to do with basketball and mostly centered on his side of the story. Ford From page 6 Ford Performance began with seven engineers in 2013 and now has 45. They are busy preparing the Mustang for Cup introduction next year, and also the Mustang for the Supercars Series in Australia. Rushbrook said Ford Performance is reminded often about its Cup championship drought, and believes the program has nine drivers capable of winning races and contending for the title. Harvick is having a season like Truex did last year in which the championship appears to be his and Ford’s to lose, but the Ford program is strong across the board. “We certainly don’t want to be peaking too early,” said Rushbrook, “but we are deﬁnitely here to win races and championships.” Story Law Office Steven L.

(AP) — Former Ohio State quarterback Joe Burrow is transferring to LSU, where he will be eligible to play immediately and compete for the Tigers’ starting job. LSU on Monday announced the addition of Burrow, who recently graduated from Ohio State and has two years of eligibility remaining. He spent three seasons at Ohio State but was never able to work his way to the top of a crowded depth chart that included J.T. Barrett over the last four seasons. Burrow, who went to high school in Athens, Ohio, redshirt- ed in 2015 and then spent two seasons as a reserve. His 2017 season was disrupted by an injury to his throwing hand. In 10 games at Ohio State, he was 29 for 39 for 287 yards passing, with two touchdowns. He ran for 53 yards and a touchdown. The Tigers are looking for a new starter to replace Danny Etling, another transfer from the Big Ten. Etling spent the last two seasons at LSU after transferring from Purdue. He started 23 games, passed for 27 touchdowns and seven interceptions and was drafted in the seventh round by the New England Eagles Patriots in April. Like Etling, Burrow was fourstar recruit out of high school. He joins an LSU team with little experience at quarterback, still searching for a starter after a spring competition involving junior Justin McMillan, sophomore Myles Brennan and redshirt freshman Lowell Narcisse. The Tigers also have a new offensive coordinator, Steve Ensminger, in coach Ed Orgeron’s second full season leading the program. Burrow also visited Cincinnati after announcing he would transfer from Ohio State. very strong team, they had good pitching that day, they’re good at the From page 6 plate, and made some nice defensive plays too. outscored opponents by I’m excited to play some good competition.” a 269-to-52 tally in 28 Of the Trojans’ 50 games this spring. postseason runs, 27 have Led by a trio of aces, the EHS pitching staff is come in the ﬁrst inning.

Centerburg — led by head coach Joe Smith — has won six straight games and 16 of its last 18, with the only team to beat the Trojans in that span being Fredricktown, by a single run on both occasions. CHS was fourth in the Knox Morrow Athletic Conference in the inaugural year of the league. The Trojans are 16th in the latest Ohio High School Baseball Coaches Association Division IV poll. Last season, Centerburg was a district semiﬁnalist in Division III. Across the bracket, and playing after the Eagles and Trojans at Beavers Field on Thursday, are Whiteoak and Toronto, the top seeds in their respective districts. The Wildcats are atop the OHSBCA Division IV poll for the the third straight week, while the Red Knights are fourth and the only other team to be on top of the poll this season. The Eagles faced both WHS and THS at VA Memorial Stadium in the regular season, defeating Whiteoak by a 5-3 count on April 27, and falling to Toronto by a 8-0 tally in a weather-shortened game on April 6. Cavs the court and ﬁguring out what he wants and where he wants it,” Stevens said. “The thing about it is that you just have to battle. You just have to make it as hard as possible, because he’s going to ﬁnd a matchup that he ultimately wants.” Stevens considered changing his starting lineup, but decided to stick with the same ﬁrst ﬁve — Brown, Jayson Tatum, Marcus Morris, Al Horford, and Terry Rozier — as the ﬁrst three games. Boston’s starters held their own, but none of them was able to match James when it mattered most. “You hope he misses, that’s about it,” Rozier said. “He’s a big body and you’ve just got to keep him in front, and hope he misses.” From page 6 ourselves in a position to be victorious.” Game 5 is Wednesday night at TD Center, and Celtics coach Brad Stevens is trying to stay positive with a team that has given up a 2-0 lead and fell to 1-6 on the road in these playoffs. “It’s the best two out of three to go to the NBA Finals. Doesn’t get better than that,” he said. “Ultimately, anybody that didn’t think this was going to be tough, I mean, everything is tough. In this deal, it’s a blast to have to grit your teeth, get up off the mat and go after it again.” Kyle Korver added 14 points and Cleveland’s sharp-shooting 37-yearold added three block and several hustle plays, outrunning three Celtics in one sequence and diving for a loose ball. “I’ve loved Kyle ever since we made the trade to get him here” James said. “I don’t remember Kyle falling too much like that. I’ve got to keep his body as fresh as possible. But listen, he’s doing whatever it takes to try to help us win, with the blocks, with the strips. Obviously his shot making is very key for our team as well, but it’s just the intangibles he’s doing for us defensively.” Tristan Thompson had 13 points and 12 rebounds for the Cavs, who won despite 19 turnovers and two assists in the second half. Kevin Love had just nine points on 3-of12 shooting and was in foul trouble, but he made a big 3-pointer and follow shot in the fourth quarter. Jaylen Brown scored 25 and Boston had all ﬁve scorers in double ﬁgures, but the Celtics fell behind by 19 in the ﬁrst half and didn’t have enough to catch Cleveland. And, of course, they didn’t have James, who moved past AbdulJabbar (2,356) for the most ﬁeld goals in playoff history. James also recorded his 25th career postseason game with at least 40 points — his sixth in this postseason. The Celtics hung around in the second half and pulled within 100-93 on Marcus Smart’s basket with 4:29 left. But Thompson got free for a dunk, and after a miss by Boston, James recovered after making his seventh turnover by making a steal and layup. Moments later, James drilled a 3-pointer from the left wing to ﬁnally put away the young Celtics, who will now feel the immense pressure of trying to hold off the three-time champion. “He’s the best in the game at evaluating Tip-ins Celtics: Stevens was evasive about his starting lineup during his pregame news conference, not wanting to give the Cavs any advance notice. “We will start ﬁve people. I promise,” he said, drawing laughs from media members. … Injured stars Gordon Hayward and Kyrie Irving are not traveling with the team so they can continue their respective rehabs. Both have been sitting on the bench with their teammates in Boston. Cavaliers: Won their seventh straight playoff “It’s always a tough region,” said Bowen. “I know that quite often the winner of this region goes on to at least the state ﬁnal. This year we’ve had the chance to play Toronto and Whiteoak, and they’re both really good, wellcoached teams. I know our kids would love the chance to play either one of those teams again.” Whiteoak is the Southern Hills Athletic League Division II champion, a district champion for the second time in program history, and enters the regional tournament with a 26-2 mark. WHS advanced to the regional by defeating Waterford 10-0 in ﬁve innings on May 16 in Chillicothe. Toronto is Ohio Valley Athletic Conference 2-A runner-up and enters the regional tournament with a 21-4-1 record. The Red Knight claimed a 6-0 victory over StrasburgFranklin on May 16 in Minerva, giving THS its third straight district title and the 300th win in the tenure of head coach Brian Perkins — the 2018 East District Coach of the Year. The Region 15 ﬁnal is set for Friday at Beavers Field, where ﬁrst pitch is slated for 5 p.m. Alex Hawley can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2100. game at home. … Love threw one of his patented “touchdown” passes in the ﬁrst quarter to James, who outmaneuvered Smart and Brown like a wide receiver to make the catch and score. … Browns rookie quarterback Baker Mayﬁeld, the No. 1 pick in last month’s NFL draft, attended the game. … Improved to 9-3 vs. Boston in the playoffs at Quicken Loans Arena. Amongst giants James seems to reach a milestone every game and he was honored to pass Abdul-Jabbar’s mark. “To know where I come from, small city 35 miles south of here, and to hear I’m in the same category or talked about and jumping these greats in the playoffs — it’s pretty cool,” he said. “You hear the scoring, the ﬁeld goals made, and for a kid that really doesn’t care much about scoring.” Old man Korver Frozen water was Korver’s postgame beverage. “I’m going to be hurting tomorrow,” he said. “My back’s a little sore, my elbow is a little sore, but this is fun basketball. It’s the playoffs. We’re at home. The crowd was rocking tonight. And it just kind of takes over you sometimes. So, yeah, whatever it takes.” � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
