COLUMBUS — Ohio Governor Mike DeWine
and Lt. Governor Jon Husted provided the following updates on Ohio’s response to the COVID-19
pandemic during a news conference on Tuesday
afternoon.
Sports order variance process
Governor DeWine discussed the recentlyissued Director’s Order that Provides Mandatory
Requirements for Youth, Collegiate, Amateur,
Club, and Professional Sports.
The order limits the maximum number of spectators gathered at an outdoor sports venue to the
lesser of 1,500 individuals or 15 percent of ﬁxed,
seated capacity. The maximum for indoor sports
venues is the lesser of 300 individuals or 15 percent of ﬁxed, seated capacity.
“The main purpose of permitting spectators at
school sports events is for ofﬁcials and loved ones
of players, coaches, team staff members, other
event participants to attend,” said Governor DeWine. “Ideally, the spectator limit would enable at
least two, and perhaps up to four, family members

Longshot impeachment effort highlights rift
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A
conservative lawmaker’s proposal
to impeach fellow Republican
Gov. Mike DeWine over his handling of the pandemic may have
been the most brazen legislative
attack on the ﬁrst-term governor to date. Even the lawmaker,
Rep. John Becker of Cincinnati,
acknowledged he was probably
committing “political suicide.”
Lost in the fury over Becker’s
move—backed by just three other
House Republicans—was the fact
that many more GOP lawmakers
strongly disagree with DeWine’s
response to the coronavirus and
have been trying to thwart him
legislatively for months. They
previously directed much of their
anger at Health Director Dr. Amy
Acton, who resigned suddenly in

June after a torrent of conservative criticism.
Senate President Larry Obhof
and House Speaker Bob Cupp,
both fellow Republicans, have also
expressed dissatisfaction with
some of DeWine’s actions, though
both took a cool approach to talk
of impeachment.
House and Senate lawmakers
have introduced well over a dozen
bills since March attempting to
limit DeWine’s ability to respond
to the virus through the issuance
of public health orders and other
emergency measures.
One of those, a Senate bill
prohibiting criminal penalties for
violations of state or local health
orders related to the pandemic,
even reached DeWine’s desk in
July, when he promptly vetoed it.

“In the midst of this pandemic,
now is not the time to change
tactics and impede local health
ofﬁcials’ ability to protect all
Ohioans,” DeWine said in his July
17 veto message to lawmakers.
DeWine on Tuesday brushed off
talk of impeachment, telling lawmakers backing the effort to “have
at it” if that’s their top priority.
Asked about overall legislative
support, he said he’s focused on
getting Ohio through the crisis
and believes his goals — to preserve life and restore the economy
— represent solidly conservative
values.
Defeating the virus and keeping
it from coming back is “all about
preserving, protecting liberty,
freedom, basically our way of
life,” DeWine said.

Dems fault GOP, return cash tainted by bribery scheme
COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) — With their presidential hopes high for
fall, some Ohio Democrats who helped seat a
now-indicted Republican
House speaker and pass
the nuclear bailout bill
prosecutors allege he
delivered as part of a $61
million bribery scheme
have begun shedding
campaign contributions
tainted by the related federal probe.
In doing so, Democrats
have sought to keep the
corruption spotlight shining on the GOP, which
has also tried to distance
itself from former Speaker Larry Householder in a
critical election year.
“I could never have
known, and did not know,
that Householder was
actually conducting one
of the largest bribery
schemes in Ohio history,”
said state Rep. Tavia
Galonski, an Akron Dem-

ocrat, in announcing she’d
donate her FirstEnergy
contributions to charity.
“What I know now is that
the legislative process
surrounding HB 6 was
irrevocably tainted by
Republican corruption.”
Householder and four
associates were arrested
July 21 and charged with
secretly receiving money
from FirstEnergy, the
government’s “Company
A,” and using it to boost
themselves politically
and personally, to secure
Householder’s election as
speaker and then to pass
a $1 billion bailout bill
and poison subsequent
efforts to repeal it.
Of the more than
$400,000 that FirstEnergy’s political action committee has donated to legislative campaigns since
2017, only about 12%
of it went to Democrats,
according to an Associated Press review. Still, all

but two of 20 Democrats
who received contributions from the PAC during that time voted either
for Householder as speaker, for the bailout bill or
both, the review found.
Those reported contributions are not part of the
$61 million identiﬁed by
the government as part of
the scheme.
At least six have
announced plans to shed
the money: Galonski and
Reps. Michele LeporeHagan of Youngstown,
John Rogers of Mentoron-the-Lake, Lisa Sobecki
of Toledo, Terrence
Upchurch of Cleveland
and Thomas West of
Canton.
House Minority Leader
Emilia Sykes, an Akron
Democrat who received
no FirstEnergy contributions and opposed the
bailout bill, told the AP
her caucus was being
pragmatic when some

The Meigs County Veterans Service Commission will meet at 8 a.m.

$12,000 from the FirstEnergy PAC from 2017
through this year. Williams has not responded
to repeated requests for
comment. Senate Minority Leader Kenny Yuko,
who voted in favor of
the bailout bill, received
$5,000, including $1,000
a month before the
vote and $2,500 after it
passed.
In committing her
$1,500 in FirstEnergy
donations to Lucas County Children’s Services,
Sobecki told The (Toledo) Blade she wanted to
avoid “even the appearance of impropriety.”
Upchurch said it
was a step “to hold me
accountable as an elected
ofﬁcial.” He added, “To
be clear, I have never
considered a vote on
legislation for any reason
other than what is best
for my district residents
and Ohio citizens.”

Lepore-Hagan backed
Householder for speaker,
but she was a vocal opponent of the bailout bill.
She donated her FirstEnergy contributions to
ACTION, the Alliance
for Congregational
Transformation Inﬂuencing Our Neighborhoods.
“I’m conﬁdent they
will use the funds to
improve the quality of
life in our community,”
she said.
West is donating his
FirstEnergy contributions to a Martin Luther
King Jr. scholarship fund
in his county. He said
FirstEnergy serves part
of his district and he supported the bill to save
plant communities.
“My aim was to save
good-paying union jobs,
reduce utility bills and
save a balanced and
more diversiﬁed platform
of energy in Ohio,” he
said.

Wis. Governor
declares emergency
after police shooting
By Mike Householder
and Scott Bauer

KENOSHA, Wis. —
Wisconsin’s governor
declared a state of emergency Tuesday after some
protesters vandalized
businesses and set dozens
of buildings on ﬁre in a
city where police shot a
Black man multiple times,
apparently in the back in
view of his children.
The shooting of Jacob
Blake on Sunday in Kenosha was captured on cellphone video and ignited
new protests over racial
injustice in several cities,
just three months after
the death of George Floyd
at the hands of Minneapolis police touched off a
wider reckoning on race.
Blake’s father, also
named Jacob Blake, told
the Chicago Sun-Times
that his son is paralyzed
from the waist down and
has “eight holes” in his
body. The elder Blake
said he didn’t know if his
son’s paralysis was permanent.
Wisconsin Gov. Tony
Evers called for protesters to be peaceful, while
also saying the National
Guard presence would
be doubled from 125 to
250 in Kenosha after
crowds destroyed dozens
of buildings and set more
than 30 ﬁres on Monday
night.
“We cannot allow the
cycle of systemic racism
and injustice to continue,” said Evers, who is
facing mounting pressure
from Republicans over
his handling of the unrest
that has followed the
shooting. “We also cannot continue going down
this path of damage and
destruction.”
Blake’s father said that
he learned Sunday night

that ofﬁcers had shot his
29-year-old son and shortly thereafter he watched
the video, which appears
to show his son being
shot in the back.
“I want to put my hand
on my son’s cheek and
kiss him on his forehead,
and then I’ll be OK,” the
father, who was traveling
from North Carolina to
Milwaukee, where his
son is being treated, told
the newspaper. “I’ll kiss
him with my mask. The
ﬁrst thing I want to do is
touch my son.”
Three of the younger
Blake’s sons — aged 3,
5 and 8 — were in the
car at the time of the
shooting, according to
Ben Crump, a civil rights
attorney representing the
family. Crump scheduled
a Tuesday afternoon
news conference in Kenosha with Blake’s family
members to address the
shooting.
Police in Kenosha
have released almost no
information about the
shooting, beyond saying
the ofﬁcers were responding to a domestic dispute
when they encountered
Blake. The Wisconsin
Department of Justice
is leading the investigation, which is expected
to take several weeks.
The ofﬁcers were placed
on administrative leave,
which is standard practice in such cases.
The father has not
returned multiple messages left by The Associated Press. He is slated
to speak at a March on
Washington commemoration on Friday organized
by the Rev. Al Sharpton.
His father and the victim’s grandfather, Jacob
Blake Sr., was a prominent minister and civil
rights leader in the Chicago area in the 1960s.

Browns rookie Delpit ruptures Achilles tendon
BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Grant
Delpit’s 2020 season ended
with the Browns before it
began.
The rookie safety ruptured
his right Achilles tendon while
going through individual drills
on Monday, a freak injury and
another dose of bad luck for
Cleveland and ﬁrst-year coach
Kevin Stefanski, who has lost
three likely defensive starters
in a week to injuries.
The team said Tuesday that
Delpit, a second-round pick
from national champion LSU,
will undergo surgery.

His loss is yet another blow
to Cleveland’s defense, and
especially its secondary, which
was overhauled during the offseason.
Delpit’s injury is the third
signiﬁcant one to strike Cleveland’s defense early in Stefanski’s ﬁrst training camp.
Linebacker Mack Wilson
hyperextended his left knee
while breaking up a pass last
week, and nickel back Kevin
Johnson lacerated his liver
when rookie tight end Harrison
Bryant landed on him. It’s not
known when Wilson or John-

son will be back on the ﬁeld.
Delpit got hurt while backpedaling during the early portion of practice. He dropped to
the turf and grabbed his lower
leg while waiting for assistance. He had to be helped
onto a cart to be driven back
to the team’s facility. An MRI
test revealed the tear.
The No. 44 overall pick in
this year’s draft, Delpit had
played well in camp so far, and
the Browns were excited about
his progress and potential.
The team signed free agents
Karl Joseph and Andrew Send-

ejo to one-year contracts during the offseason to give them
depth and experience in the
secondary. Cleveland chose
not to sign last year’s primary
starters, Damarious Randall
and Morgan Burnett, before
drafting Delpit, who won the
2019 Jim Thorpe Award as the
nation’s top defensive back.
Delpit’s loss will force ﬁrstyear general manager Andrew
Berry to search the waiver
wire or potentially make a
trade.
Veteran Earl Thomas was
recently released by the

Ravens, but given his problems in Seattle and Baltimore,
it might be too risky to consider bringing him on to a fairly
young team that’s a long way
from Super Bowl contention.
The Browns are banged-up
in their defensive backﬁeld.
Starting cornerback Greedy
Williams injured his shoulder
in Monday’s practice and M.J.
Stewart, who was ﬁlling in for
Johnson, has been slowed by
a hamstring issue. Also, cornerback Terrance Mitchell has
missed practices with a knee
injury.

Parsons, Sewell
among AP preseason
All-Americans absent
By Ralph D. Russo
Associated Press

Penn State linebacker
Micah Parsons and
Oregon tackle Penei
Sewell are among 11
players selected to The
Associated Press preseason All-America ﬁrst
team who are not slated
to play this fall.
The team was selected by 47 AP poll voters,
who were asked to consider all Division I players — even those who
had already opted out
of the season or whose
teams had postponed
football.
The results show just
how much star power
will be missing from
this pandemic-altered
college football season.
Twelve second-team
All-Americans will
also not play in the
fall, including quarterback Justin Fields
from defending Big
Ten champion and
preseason No. 2 Ohio
State.
The Big Ten, Pac12, Mid-American and
Mountain West conferences have decided to
try to play football in
the second semester.
As of now, Fields has
given no indication that
he won’t be with the
Buckeyes if they do.
Same goes for Sewell,
the Outland Trophy
winner and potential
top-ﬁve NFL draft pick,
and Oregon teammate
Kayvon Thibodeaux, a
sophomore defensive
end.
Parsons is among a
handful of stars who

OHSAA guidelines for football games
By Tim Stried
For Ohio Valley Publishing

COLUMBUS, Ohio
– With the high school
football regular-season
set to begin this week,
the Ohio High School
Athletic Association has
provided details and
reminders regarding
media coverage, team
protocols, game management changes and the
new playoff format.
There were 709 member schools originally
planning to play 11-man
football in Ohio this
fall, but approximately
60 schools have either
paused or cancelled football due to the COVID-19
pandemic. On August 18,
Governor Mike DeWine
asked the OHSAA to create participation opportunity for those schools
that don’t play sports this
fall, but it is unlikely that
additional tournaments
would be held in the
spring for fall sports.
“Our schools are so
excited to get the season
started and they are
taking ownership of the
new safety guidelines
so they can have a season,” said Beau Rugg,
OHSAA Senior Director
of Sport Management
and Ofﬁciating. “As we
saw in the spring, sports
can be shut down due
to COVID-19 spread, so
our schools, coaches and
student-athletes want to
do everything they can to
play as many games this
fall as possible. Teams
must continue to follow
the safety protocols that
have been put in place,
including wearing a facial
covering, staying 6-feet
apart and washing their
hands.”
Media coverage
The OHSAA encourages media coverage of
all games and working
media members are
not counted toward the
capacity limits for spectators. Approval and placement of media members

will be determined by
the host school Athletic
Director depending on
the layout of the facility, including how many
people are permitted in
the press box. In small
press boxes, due to social
distancing regulations,
there will not be space
available for media. At
ﬁeld level, media members must be outside
the team box, which
has been expanded this
season to span from the
10-yard line to the opposite 10-yard line. Media
must also stay at least
two yards back from the
in-play ﬁeld boundary.
Media must wear a facial
covering at all times. As
always, media should
contact the host school’s
Athletic Director well in
advance of game day to
request permission to
attend and, if approved,
discuss their placement
and access during the
game. Media are not
permitted in the locker
room.
Season schedule
and format
At the recommendation of the Governor’s
Ofﬁce, the OHSAA
announced on August
7 that the season would
end earlier than previously scheduled and that
every team could enter
the playoffs, which will
begin October 9-10. The
Harbin computer ratings will not be used this
season.
Game management
changes
Up to 60 players may
dress for games.
The team box on the
sideline has been extended from the 10-yard line
to the opposite 10-yard
line so that coaches and
players can adhere to
social distancing guidelines.
All coaches, players,
medical staff, game workers, media and spectators
must wear a facial covering at all times, other

than the 22 players on
the ﬁeld of play.
The OHSAA recommends that halftimes be
shortened to 10 minutes
(plus three minutes for
warm-up) and that team
members be kept socially
distanced outside their
locker room. The host
school will determine
the speciﬁc length of
halftime.
Timeouts may be
extended to two minutes
in length
Ofﬁcials will have
limited contact with
the ball. The players on
the offensive team will
handle the ball and take
it with them to their
huddle. The umpire will
place an orange bean bag
at the spot where the ball
will be snapped.
Each player should have
his/her own water bottle.
Players and coaches
from the visiting team
should not use a locker
room, therefore they
should arrive already
fully or partially dressed
in their game uniform.
Pregame handshakes
(captains and ofﬁcials)
and postgame handshakes lines are not permitted.
Playoff format
Schools must inform
the OHSAA of their
intention to participate
in the playoffs by September 17.
New playoff regions
will be drawn on September 18. Divisional assignments will not change.
Schools may withdraw
from the playoffs without
penalty until September
24.
Playoff regional seeding will be determined
by a vote of the coaches
in each region during
the week of September
28. Depending on the
number of teams in each
bracket, it is possible
that the top seed(s) may
have a ﬁrst-round bye.
All playoff contests
through the regional
semiﬁnals (and possibly

the regional ﬁnals) will
be hosted by the higher
seeded team.
Playoff games will be
held on Friday and Saturday nights beginning
October 9-10. Divisions,
I, II, III and VII will play
on Friday nights. Divisions IV, V and VI will
play on Saturday nights.
The number of playoff
rounds will be dependent
upon the number of
schools entering the playoffs in each division. It
is expected that the state
championship games will
be held November 13-14
and/or November 20-21.
Schools eliminated
from the OHSAA playoffs or that choose not
to enter the OHSAA
playoffs have the option
to schedule additional
regular season contests through Saturday,
November 14 (maximum
of 10 regular season contests permitted).
Spectators
By order of the Ohio
Department of Health,
only 15 percent of the
stadium’s permanent
seating capacity may be
admitted into the game.
Players, coaches, ofﬁcials, cheerleaders, band
members, game workers
and media do not count
toward that 15 percent
capacity.
Inspectors to attend games
Governor DeWine has
asked the OHSAA to
assemble a large team
of inspectors who will
attend games to ensure
that all safety protocols
are being followed. The
inspectors, which will be
paid by the Governor’s
Ofﬁce, will work with
the host site’s compliance
ofﬁcer and/or Athletic
Director and utilize a
checklist of items. The
intent of the inspector
program is to educate
those at the game regarding proper safety protocols, but the OHSAA may
enact penalties through
Bylaw 11 if necessary.
