With the Ohio River in the background, Jake Dunn and the Blackbirds performed the fourth of five shows for the Rhythm on the River concert series sponsored by the
Pomeroy Blues and Jazz Society. Dunn, a Meigs High School graduate and Pomeroy native and his five piece band, plays a cross between Americana and Roots Rock,
along the lines of the new superstars of music like Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson and The Drive By Truckers. Dunn and the Blackbirds has earned a strong regional
following in Southeastern Ohio and West Virginia, playing from Columbus to Charleston. Next week, Ohio native and Arizona resident Bill Dutcher will play the final
Rhythm on the River Show preceding the Big Bend Blues Bash on July 27th and 28th. Dutcher’s music must be heard to believe, as he becomes a magician of sorts
with his hands and six strings. Show time is 8 p.m. at the Pomeroy Riverfront Amphitheater.

MIDDLEPORT — In
a statement on Tuesday, Middleport Chief
of Police Bruce Swift
reminded residents to
“secure your property.”
“This friendly reminder
to Middleport residents
is being posted due to
recent surge in property
crimes in Middleport,”
wrote Swift. “Thieves are
opportunistic and will
steal just about anything
that they see that is not
secured in some way.”
The statement continued, “Please do not
leave bicycles, scooters,
toys or any tools, lawn
equipment or anything
else in plain sight and
unsecured. Keep all
garages, outbuildings and

Gallia Engineer Brett Boothe and Gallia Deputy Engineer Beth Lozier speak with Gallia Commissioners Thursday regarding the possibility
of applying for grants to finish paving Gallia roads and creating a smart corridor.

Gallia approves ‘smart’ corridor hopes
By Dean Wright
deanwright@aimmediamidwest.
com

GALLIPOLIS — Gallia County may soon be
looking at a future where
stone and dirt roads
become part of an information highway.
Gallia Commissioners
approved grant application proposals from Gallia
Engineer Brett Boothe
Thursday in the Gallia
Courthouse aimed at
gathering funding to pave
the rest of Gallia’s gravel
and dirt county roads and
to potentially turn parts
of US 35, and a few other
roads, into a “smart” corridor.
Boothe said the application process for a pair of
federal grants he intends
to bring to Gallia is “pretty intense.” The engineer
aims to make use of federal BUILD program funds.
He said he has had favorable conversations with
the Ohio Department of
Transportation and area
internet service companies looking at potential
partnerships in infrastructure development, pending grant approval.

“The ﬁrst project that
we’re proposing is mainly
on our state routes, ”
said Boothe. “We’re proposing developing the
interchange from where
it is right now on Harrisburg Road. We currently
have a bridge there, but
we don’t have on and off
ramp access. In the process of developing that
interchange, we’re going
to expand the current rest
area into a smart truck
center.”
Boothe’s smart truck
center, ideally, would
have electric charging stations.
“The second part of
that (the same grant
proposal) is completing
Farm Road and tying into
where Farm Road is existing and running that into
the City of Gallipolis and
trying to make something
that’s limited access with
access management to
allow for access to (city
locations) and be able
to have somewhat of
a bypass for people to
take some congestion off
Eastern Avenue,” said
Boothe. “Ultimately, that
helps business. You want
people driving by but at

congestion peaks, you
start losing money.”
According to information provided by the
engineer, along with the
Farm Road tie-in to Gallipolis, the project proposal
includes “installing ﬁber
optics to provide a twolane testing route for the
Ohio autonomous vehicle
project along the same
US 35/Bob Evans Highway/Farm Road bypass
route.”
Boothe feels these
areas provide for “innovative public and private”
partnership opportunities
to install electric charging
stations for over-the-road
trucks and passenger
vehicles and for the
installation of ﬁber optics
along area roads. The
engineer said this could
improve the “high-tech
industrial development
and trucking industry
expansion” of the region.
The project is estimated
to cost around $29 million to complete.
The second grant
Boothe seeks to attain
would allow for the paving of 130 miles of county
stone and dirt roads. The
engineer believes this

would improve economic
development in the area
as well as emergency
response times. Such a
project is estimated to
cost around $27 million
to complete.
According to Boothe,
he is allowed to apply for
up to $25 million in grant
funds for each project,
totaling around a possible
$50 million to be brought
to Gallia’s economy,
should the funding be
approved.
Boothe proposes to put
up one half million to two
million dollars of local
money in matching funds
per projects as, he says, it
would allow project proposals to score higher for
approval.
Commissioners
approved Boothe’s proposal, although they
had questions as to the
current state and future
of self-driving vehicles.
Commissioner Harold
Montgomery said he
was interested in seeing
whether township roads
could also be paved with
said funding.

Scalia Lab launches new mobile-friendly website
a senior majoring in GeographyMeteorology at OHIO.
“The new website provides a
fresh, clean, and streamlined look.
One of its greatest improvements
is that the site is entirely mobilefriendly. You can access your
weather information and forecast
easily on your phone from our

images, text, and data are not
compromised when viewing on

Building a site that can be easily updated by student forecasters
— while pulling in data streams
from the on-campus weather stations along with radar and satellite
images from the National Weather
Service — involved lots of work
by the OHIO students and website
designers at Red Tail Design Co.
Red Tail is owned and operated
by OHIO alumnus Tim Martin,
with the Scalia Lab site developed
by OHIO alumni Will Presley and
Ben Wiebel.
“Growing up I always remember
my parents calling in on the Scalia
hotline to listen to the weather
hotline voicemail. It was always
the only source we trusted, so we
wanted to make sure that hotline
number was still prominent on the
website, but still give the website
an update look, feel and usability
for everyone in our community to
enjoy,” Martin said.
“The new Scalia Lab website
is a big accomplishment for the
lab, and the meteorology program
at OHIO. We created lots of new
products over the past year to
increase trafﬁc on the site, so a
new, mobile-friendly website is
another big step forward,” said
Kevin Theil, a senior GeographyMeteorology major and Mathematics minor who serves as webmaster
and forecaster for the Scalia Lab.
“This way the lab can better serve
our volunteer student forecasters,
along with residents in Athens and
throughout Southeast Ohio for
years to come.”

and broadened his repertoire by adding Celtic
and contemporary folk
songs in the mix.
Patterson commented, “I learned a great
deal, by performing in
one of the biggest and
most competitive entertainment markets in the
country.”
Featuring a diverse
repertoire, his live
acoustic shows are a
mixture of favorites,
drawn from the deep
catalogues of songwriters, such as John Prine,
Neil Young, James Taylor and contemporary
favorites, such as Josh
Ritter.
He has performed
at a number of events
and venues in Ohio
and beyond, including Paddy Reilly’s
Pub in New York City,
the Shamrock Club
in Columbus, Merry
Ploughboy in Buffalo,
New York and Pier 35
Restaurant in Dublin,
Ireland.
Regionally, he plays at
a variety of restaurants,
clubs, wineries, breweries, festivals and private
events. As he says, “It’s
important to me that
my shows are unique,
enjoyable and accessible
events for everyone
who attends. Music is
a mutual transfer of
energy and I try to give
back a lot to my audience”.
He added, “I urge

everyone to support
live, local music, whenever they have the
chance. We’re blessed
to live in an area, rich
in musical talent, and I
look forward to joining
the roster of excellent
local musicians, who’ve
performed as part of
the Hot Summer Nights
series”.

THEIR VIEW

Are you currently
prepared for a
fender bender?
AAA East Central

The warm summer months are synonymous
with several things — sun, time with family and
friends, and an increase in people heading out on
their summer road trips! While this is exciting for
anyone looking to enjoy the warm months, there
is an increase in drivers on the road this time of
the year which can increase the chances of collisions between drivers. AAA East Central is advising motorists to familiarize themselves with their
responsibilities and options so that they aren’t
caught off guard in the instance that they are in a
crash.
“It’s very important to keep a cool head and
think things through in such a challenging time,”
says Brett Schurter, Vice President of Insurance,
AAA East Central. “You want to make sure you do
everything you can to limit or prevent any additional injuries or property damage.”
Your Responsibilities &amp; Options After a Crash:
Make sure you stop! Most state laws require you
to stop for any collision with a moving vehicle, a
parked vehicle, a pedestrian, or someone’s property. If you drive away, even if the collision isn’t
your fault, you could be charged with a hit and
run, which has severe penalties.
Start by taking a deep breath… Collect your
thoughts before you act, and keep tensions under
control. Make sure you turn the engine off and
turn off any accessories (like headlights) that
aren’t necessary. Most importantly, be polite and
don’t accuse anyone of causing the crash.
Check for injuries. Carefully survey the scene
around you, and evaluate your condition. Are you
injured? Can you safely exit your car? Immediately take care of any injuries and obtain medical
assistance if required. It is usually best not to
move someone who is badly injured, since it could
make the injury worse. Move them only to avoid
the chance of being hit by other vehicles or to pull
them out of a hazardous situation, such as a burning car.
Prevent additional injuries. Individuals involved
in minor collisions, with minor or no injuries,
should consider moving their vehicles to the side
of the road so other trafﬁc does not collide with
them. If the vehicles are damaged so badly that
they can’t be moved, turn on the emergency ﬂashers and set out warning triangles or emergency
ﬂares if it is safe to do so.
Call the police or highway patrol (911) even if
the crash seems minor. Be prepared to provide
your exact location so they can reach you quickly.
Explain the situation and be sure to mention any
injuries to determine if an ambulance and/or ﬁre
engine is needed.
Cooperate with the police as they ﬁll out their
report and respond honestly to questions and be
speciﬁc: “I was traveling at 35 miles per hour,”
and so on – just the facts. Don’t complicate things
for yourself by saying, “It’s my fault” to anyone at
the crash scene, including the ofﬁcer taking the
report. Get the names and badge numbers of the
police ofﬁcers and other ﬁrst responders involved.
Write down the police department(s) involved.
Ask the ofﬁcers when and where you can get a
copy of the police report if one is made. Some
police departments will not ﬁll out a report if the
damage is minor and there are no injuries.
Exchange information.
From you: Give each driver involved in the crash
your name, driver’s license number, home address,
phone number(s), and insurance company and
policy number information.
From the other driver(s): Get the same information and record the color, make, model, year, and
license plate number for each car involved. Get
the names and phone numbers of any passengers.
Gather as much information as safely possible.
Sketch out the crash and positions of the vehicles
involved. Note the exact location of the crash and
how it happened. Record the date, time, weather,
and road conditions when it occurred. Photograph
the crash location and the cars involved if it is safe
to do so. Also, record the damage to your car and
photograph it, if possible.
Report the crash. Make sure you report the
crash to your insurance company immediately
so they can start the claims process and get your
vehicle repaired or replaced. Consider calling from
the scene of the crash to facilitate this. Additionally, when you get home, write a detailed account
of what happened as soon as you can. Include all
the details you recorded at the scene: the time of
day, weather conditions, and road conditions. This
account will be very useful when ﬁling an insurance report, or later if you are involved in a court
case because of the crash.
Accident report. Remember that most states
require that an accident report be ﬁled within a
few days of a crash if the damage exceeds a minimum cost, or if any injuries were involved.
Other recommendations:
Don’t discuss the ﬁnancial limits of your auto
insurance policy.
Don’t discuss who is responsible for the crash
with anyone other than your insurance company.

A birthday gift: Being less embarrassing
So we were engaged in
the Great American Family pastime of watching
pro wrestling the other
night when one of my
favorite current wrestlers,
“Glorious” Bobby Roode,
came on the screen for
his match.
Thinking how nice it
would be to have such
a nickname, I casually
asked my family, “Would
you guys please start
referring to me as ‘Glorious’ David Fong?”
My wife, looking at the
resplendent, full-length,
rhinestone-covered robe
Roode was wearing on his
way to the ring, replied,
“We’ll start calling you
‘Glorious’ David Fong if
you get a robe like that
and wear it around in
public …”
My wife hadn’t even
ﬁnished the sentence
when my daughter,
Sophie, screamed out,
“Mom! Nooooo! Do not
encourage him! You know
he’ll do it!”
My daughter was, of
course, right. I have every
intention of ﬁnding just
such a robe, wearing it
to appropriate functions
around town (such as
football games and funerals, for starters) and
demanding that, as per
our agreement, my family
start referring to me as
“Glorious” David Fong.

Rio Grande alumni baseball holds golf outing

Bryan Walters | OVP Sports

The eighth annual University of Rio Grande baseball alumni golf outing was held on Monday, July 16, at Cliffside Golf Course in Gallipolis, Ohio. The event allows former
RedStorm baseball players to get together from all over the country and reminisce about their playing careers while seeing former teammates and other members of
the Rio Grande baseball fraternity. The event organizer, Skipper Johnson, noted that the 2018 event had more than 30 people in attendance.

Winners and losers of the WCup

MOSCOW (AP) — Savor
the thrills, unpredictability, and constant drama of
this World Cup. Even FIFA
accepts the soccer showpiece
might never be so engrossing
again.
Russia might have staged
the last 32-team World Cup.
Or at least the last one not
shoehorned in a crammed format at the end of the calendar
year.
FIFA has yet to deﬁnitively
rule out adding another 16
teams in time for the 2022
World Cup in Qatar, but the
leap to 48 teams will be happening for certain for the
triple-hosted North American
tournament in 2026. Welcome
to 16 groups, each featuring
three teams of which two
advance to a round of 32.
Soccer leaders were
seduced by the extra cash an
expansion tournament would
offer, but at the expense of
the spectacle itself. Russia
vindicated the 2016 internal
FIFA brieﬁng document that
determined 32-team ﬁnals
tend to produce the “highest
absolute quality” on the ﬁeld.
Here is a look at the winners and losers of the tournament which ended with
France lifting the World Cup
on Sunday after beating Croatia 4-2 in the ﬁnal:

Russia
The lowest-ranked team at
the ﬁnals, the hosts set the
tone for the tournament by
thrashing Saudi Arabia 5-0 in
the opener. It wasn’t a ﬂuke
as Stanislav Cherchesov’s side
unexpectedly qualiﬁed from
its group and even eliminated
2010 World Cup winner Spain
in the round of 16. It was only
a successful penalty shootout
away from reaching the semiﬁnals.
As a tournament organizer,
Russia also exceeded expectations. No one doubted Vladimir Putin’s ability to mobilize
the resources of the state to
ensure operations ran smoothly. But police often adopted a
relaxed approach to fans gathering on street corners and
drinking in the streets. The
hooliganism and racism that
has scarred Russian football
was absent.
Logistically, it was a triumph, but it will take longer
to discover whether the
changes in Russia were just
camouﬂage for the tournament.
Heavyweights floored
Even as they celebrate their

Francois Mori | AP

French President Emmanuel Macron, third right, poses Monday with the French soccer players at the presidential Elysee
Palace after the parade down the Champs-Elysees in Paris, where tens of thousands thronged after the team’s 4-2 victory
over Croatia in the World Cup final. Holding the cup is captain Hugo Lloris.

second World Cup title, the
French should have a sense of
dread.
Germany became the third
holder from the last three
World Cups to be eliminated
in the group stage. Germany’s
demise was a combination of
complacency, failing to strike
the right balance blending the
young and older generation,
and a simmering row over
the Turkish heritage of Mesut
Ozil and Ilkay Gundogan.
This was a tournament
to forget for the top three
players at last year’s FIFA
awards. Player of the year
Cristiano Ronaldo excelled
in only one match, scoring a
hat trick against Spain, before
European champion Portugal
was knocked out by Uruguay
in the last 16. Lionel Messi
managed a solitary strike to
help Argentina qualify from
its group. And like Portugal it
fell at the start of the second
round, losing to France 4-3.
The world’s most expensive
player at least made it a round
further. But Neymar was still
struggling for ﬁtness after
three months out with a broken toe.
The pitfalls of making a
hasty return from injury were
clear for Mohamed Salah,
whose shoulder injury in the

Champions League ﬁnal in
May meant the Egypt forward
was unable to replicate his
free-scoring form. English
football’s player of the year
netted only twice as Egypt
was eliminated in the group
stage.
Video replays
Expecting perfection was
always unrealistic on the
debut of video assistant referees. Confusion reigned in the
opening days of the tournament. When grappling went
unpunished and penalties
were not awarded had the referee even consulted the VAR
or was he just being lenient?
Too many referees dithered
over decisions. Take the
awarding of the penalty in the
ﬁnal after assessing Croatia
midﬁelder Ivan Perisic’s handball. Ultimately, if the decision is right in the end, soccer might have to put up with
delays. Airing some of the
communications between referees and the VARs like they
do in rugby will give coaches
and fans more conﬁdence in
the system going forward.
Particularly when it comes to
what constitutes “clear and
obvious” errors.
Set-pieces

The demise of Spain in the
last 16 underscored a shift in
tactical effectiveness. Goodbye tiki-taka for now. Possession without using the ball
effectively — attacking — is
futile as Spain discovered
against Russia. Instead, winning a free kick or corner
proved the most effective
route to scoring. Of 169
goals in Russia, 73 came from
set-pieces. VAR helped, too,
acting as a deterrent against
wrestling and shirt-pulling to
neutralize opponents as the
balls were ﬂying into the penalty area.
Concussion
FIFA strengthened concussion protocols after the 2014
World Cup regarding when
players return to action after
head impacts. But there are
protocols in place, not hard
and fast rules. So Noureddine
Amrabat should never have
played in the group stage in
Russia for Morocco five days
after a concussion that left
him unable to remember the
incident. But Amrabat was
allowed to defy the team doctor’s advice.
“Can we do more? Of
course,” FIFA President
Gianni Infantino said on Friday, without expanding.

media days
FRISCO, Texas
(AP) — Oklahoma won
another Big 12 title and
made it to the College
Football Playoff again in
its ﬁrst season without
coach Bob Stoops on the
sideline.
The Sooners, who have
won the past three Big 12
titles with quarterback
Baker Mayﬁeld, will now
be trying to do it again
without the Heisman Trophy winner under center.
Even with Mayﬁeld
preparing for his ﬁrst
NFL season, 11-time Big
12 champion Oklahoma
goes into the league’s
football media days as
the preseason pick to win
another title ahead of
West Virginia.
Lincoln Riley, Oklahoma’s offensive coordinator for two years
before succeeding Stoops
last summer, will be the
last of the ﬁve coaches
who will take the main
podium Monday for the
ﬁrst half of media days
at the Dallas Cowboys’
headquarters, which is in
suburban Frisco north of
downtown Dallas.
TCU coach Gary Patterson, who is going into
his 18th season has the
second-longest active
streak among FBS head
coaches, will be the ﬁrst
coach to take questions.
Kansas’ David Beaty,
Texas Tech’s Kliff Kingsbury and Iowa State’s
Matt Campbell will then
go before Riley.

Harper
wins
thrilling
HR Derby
WASHINGTON (AP)
— The ball cleared the
center ﬁeld wall, and the
sellout crowd roared.
Bryce Harper threw his
bat in the air, thrust both
index ﬁngers skyward
and yelled with delight
as a shower of streamers
rained upon the crowd of
43,698.
It could have been
a scene from a playoff
game. That it was merely
the All-Star Home Run
Derby mattered not to
Harper or the Washington Nationals fans, who
were thrilled to see their
hometown hero deliver
the night’s ﬁnal longball
Monday.
In the midst of it all
— and in the middle of
trying season — Harper
grabbed the microphone
and said: “This crowd:
Wow! Washington Nationals, baby!”
With an exceptional
display of power and
clutch hitting, Harper
rallied in the ﬁnal round,
connecting on pitches
from his father to beat
Kyle Schwarber of the
Chicago Cubs 19-18.

time, the reward for hitting two homers at least
440 feet during the 4
minutes of regulation.
After he connected with
the game winner, the
Nationals star immediately went into celebration mode.
“We have some of the
best fans in all of baseball, and to be able to
that with my family out
there, that’s an incredible moment, not only
for me but for the organization and the Nationals fans,” Harper said.
Harper’s teammate,
Max Scherzer, the NL
starter on Tuesday
night, also appreciated
the moment.
“It’s awesome. Hometown,” Scherzer said.
“The crowd is behind
him. He found some
rhythm, kept it simple
and just continued
to hit home run after
home run.”
Wearing a headband
that resembled the
District of Columbia
ﬂag and displaying a
right sleeve with stars
and stripes, Harper
trailed 18-9 with 1:20
left before rallying. He
homered on nine of his
last 10 swings before
entering extra time.
The six-time All-Star
arranged to have his
dad, Ron, pitch to him
in the annual contest on
the eve of the All-Star
Game. That made the
victory even sweeter.
“I’m only as good as
my BP guy,” Harper
said with a grin.
Hours before the
session, Harper spoke
excitedly about having
his dad pitch to him
in the contest. The
25-year-old said his
father “worked his tail
off every single day to
provide for me and my
family” and “now being
able to have him throw
to me in a big league
ballpark is the cherry on
top.”
Afterward, Ron Harper said of his son: “He
did great. So I’m really
proud of him. He’s a
great kid. You couldn’t
ask for anything better.”
It’s been a tough year
for Harper, who’s hitting only .214 for the
disappointing Nationals. He won a contest
that many sluggers
avoid, fearful it might
wear them out and
throw them off.
He can only hope this
helps him get back into
the swing.
The 2015 NL MVP
beat Freddie Freeman
of the Atlanta Braves
and Max Muncy of the
Dodgers before trumping the ﬁfth-seeded
Schwarber, who put the
pressure on with a solid
outing before Harper
stepped to the plate.
“As soon as I got
done with that round I
told myself that (Harp-

er) had it,” Schwarber
said. “I knew that he
had the home crowd
behind him.”
Harper, who has 23
home runs this season,
advanced to the ﬁnal
with an astonishing
spree of longball hitting. He trailed Max
Muncy of the Dodgers
12-4 with 2:20 left, then
peeled off six homers in
47 seconds before calling a timeout.
Harper returned to
hit three more home
runs in 22 seconds, the
last of them inside the
right-ﬁeld foul pole.
The semiﬁnal matchup between Schwarber
and Philadelphia’s Rhys
Hoskins went down to
the ﬁnal swing. After
stunning top-seed Jesus
Aguilar of Milwaukee in
the opening round, the
eighth-seeded Hoskins
ripped 20 long balls
to put the pressure on
Schwarber.
Using a late surge,
Schwarber pulled one
ball after another over
the right ﬁeld wall to
squeeze out a 21-20 victory — by far the highest-scoring matchup of
the night.
The fans dutifully
cheered most home
runs during the ﬁrst
round, but they saved
their loudest cheers for
Harper, the last player
to step to the plate.
After Freeman hit
12 home runs over the
4-minute span, Harper
unleashed six shots of
at least 440 feet and
secured the victory
with a drive to center
long before the clock
expired. As the ball
cleared the wall, the lefthanded hitting Harper
walked out of the batter’s box and thrust
both arms in the air.
Milwaukee’s Aguilar, the NL home run
leader at the break, was
eliminated in the opening round by Hoskins
17-12.
Aguilar hit too many
balls to straightaway
center, where the wall
stands over 400 feet
from the plate. Hoskins
pumped most of his
drives into the left-ﬁeld
seats, where it’s 336
feet down the line.
The most thrilling
ﬁrst-round match featured a near buzzerbeater by Houston’s
Alex Bregman, who fell
to Schwarber 16-15.
The difference was the
pair of homers that
Schwarber hit during
30 seconds of extra
time.
Bregman — the lone
AL representative —
appeared defeated with
a minute left, but he
mounted a late surge
and lost when his ﬁnal
swing produced a drive
that landed at the base
of the center-ﬁeld wall.
Muncy advanced by
defeating No. 6 seed
Javier Baez of the Cubs,
16-15. Baez hit the longest shot of the Derby, a
479-footer.

Snyder and Oklahoma

The 78-year-old Snyder
— 44 years older than
Riley — is going into the
10th season of his second
stint with the Wildcats.
Snyder went 17 seasons
(1989-2005) in his ﬁrst

Mayﬁeld, now with the
Cleveland Browns after
being the ﬁrst overall
pick in the NFL draft, is
the only player to be the
ﬁrst-team quarterback on
the AP All-Big 12 team
three straight seasons.
He led the Sooners to Big
12 titles each time, the
starter throughout Riley’s
time with the Sooners as

offensive coordinator and
head coach.
Mayﬁeld’s expected
replacement, Kyler Murray, was picked ninth
overall in the Major

Spieth returns claret jug, faces tough task getting it back
CARNOUSTIE, Scotland (AP) — Jordan
Spieth ﬁgured someone
from the R&amp;A would be
waiting for him when he
pulled into the parking
lot at Carnoustie to take
back the silver claret jug.
Instead, he was part of a
ceremony with enough
pomp to drive home the
point.
His reign as British
Open champion was over.
“The traditions of the
Open are very special,”
Spieth said, “even if
you’re on the wrong end
of that one.”
This “tradition” is only
a few years old, though
typical of the august manner of this major, nothing
was left to chance. Spieth
was to arrive in a car provided by one of the R&amp;A’s
sponsors, and as it drove
slowly down a dirt path
behind the grandstands
on the ﬁrst hole, cameras moved into position.
The door opened and a
woman slowly emerged
from the back seat. That’s
where Spieth would be
sitting. This was just a
rehearsal to make sure
the cameras had the right
angle.
Moments later, an R&amp;A
employee asked people
sitting in the right portion of the grandstands to
move to the other side so
it would appear fuller.
“It’s the coolest trophy
that our sport has to
offer,” Spieth said. “So

having to return that was
certainly difﬁcult. Kind of
hit me a little bit there on
the tee box.”
It’s far more enjoyable
to pose with golf’s oldest trophy — it ﬁrst was
awarded in 1873 — at the
18th hole on Sunday, not
the ﬁrst hole on Monday.
That’s the task that awaits
Spieth, and it ﬁgures to
be a monumental one.
Only four players in
the last 50 years have
repeated as British Open
champions, the most
recent being Padraig Harrington in 2008.
More than history, it’s
the nature of Carnoustie
that ﬁgures to be the
stiffest challenge — or
at least on Monday, the
most mysterious one. A
dry summer has turned
the links into a combination of brown (fairways),
yellow (wispy rough) and
green on the tee boxes
and putting surfaces.
That translates into the
fastest conditions at an
Open since Tiger Woods
won at Hoylake in 2006.
That was the year Woods
hit only one driver — yes,
he missed the fairway —
and relied mainly on long
irons off the tee because
the golf ball was running
forever.
Early samples indicate
this might be just the
opposite.
Because the rough
isn’t up, and because
it’s difﬁcult to judge

with that wild ﬁnish
and his name on the jug
that he wouldn’t hoist
another trophy. His only
close call this year came
in the Masters, where
he started the ﬁnal
round nine shots behind
Patrick Reed and nearly
caught him until a bogey
on the last hole for a 64.
He ﬁnished third.
Since then, Spieth has
not been closer than
12 shots off the lead in
four of the seven tournaments in which he made
it to the weekend.
He missed the cut

retiring from the university, as “a

Governor dedicates
park to Jesse Owens
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s
governor has dedicated a new state
park and wildlife area named for
Olympic great Jesse Owens.
Two of Owens’ daughters accompanied Gov. John Kasich (KAY-sik) during Tuesday’s dedication ceremony in
Columbus at Jesse Owens Memorial
Stadium.
The Republican governor said Tuesday that achievements of “heroes”
such as Owens should be preserved to
inspire others to “overcome challenges and accomplish their very best.”
Owens was a world record-setting
sprinter at Ohio State University and
won four gold medals at the 1936
Olympic Games in Berlin.
The park was created after Ohio’s
Department of Natural Resources
struck a deal with American Electric
Power to buy a large portion of a
60,000-acre (24,281-hectare) parcel
owned by the company.
The land spans parts of Guernsey,
Morgan, Muskingum and Noble counties in eastern Ohio.
