According to its web- site, Relay For Life is the signature fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. Relay is staffed and coordinated by volunteers in more than 5,200 communities and 27 countries. Volunteers give of their time and effort because they believe it’s time to take action against cancer. The event had been held at the Meigs County Fairgrounds for a number of years before being moved to the Pomeroy parking lot in 2016. Gardner directed interested participants to take part in the May 19-20 Relay event at Belpre Civitan Park or the June 2 event at Gallipolis City Park.

TV14 CLASSIFIEDS Vice News Tonight �NEWS Daily Sentinel Tuesday, April 18, 2017 3 Patterson secures House GOP leaders announce future of BCMH funding U.S. DOJ position Staff Report Erin Patterson, who will graduate from the University of Cincinnati College of Law in May, has been selected for the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Honors Program to work as a Judicial Law Clerk in an Arizona Immigration Court. Patterson will clerk for four federal Immigration Court judges during her two-year term. Patterson, a lifelong resident of Pomeroy, Ohio and 2010 graduate of Meigs High School, entered law school after earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and Sociology from Ohio University in 2014. Patterson’s acceptance to the Honors Program is the culmination of a focus she began during her undergraduate Patterson studies and pursued through externships and editing positions during law school. After her second year of law school, Patterson completed a fellowship with a nonproﬁt in New York City, where she prepared citizenship applications and provided naturalization tutoring for a wide range of low-income immigrants. In her ﬁnal semester, Patterson helps prepare asylum cases for women and children seeking safety in the United States as an intern with the Cincinnatibased, Catholic Charities of Southwestern Ohio. The U. S. Department of Justice Honors Program is the most prestigious federal entry-level hiring program of its kind. It offers recent law graduates a pathway into the DOJ and federal government work. Patterson feels that her practical experiences in immigration law, and her editorial positions with both the Human Rights Quarterly and the Immigration and Nationality Law Review, have prepared her well for her ﬁrst two years as an attorney.

In 2016, BCMH provided healthcare treatment for nearly 40,000 children with medical handicaps. The program will reportedly help families meet the ﬁnancial burdens that often accompany treatments. House Republicans announced plans to remove proposed changes to the way the program is funded that were included in the executive state budget plan, in order to address these issues more thoroughly in the future. This will allow the legislature to devote more time and attention to a program that has an impact on thousands of families across Ohio. “We feel it is important to ensure predictability and certainty for the families who are faced with trials and tribulations in their lives, such as cystic is that vital safety net that helps us make ends meet and keeps us aﬂoat and working.” House Finance Chair Ryan Smith (R-Bidwell) praised Boomer Esiason’s efforts to raise awareness and resources for such an important cause. “I admire people who are in a position to have the spotlight and use it for what they’re passionate about and really making a difference,” he said. “This effort is about doing what is best for Ohio families, and as we continue onward through the budget process, this will be a major priority and I think we are certainly moving in the right direction.” State Representative Mark Romanchuk (R-Ontario) chairs the Finance Subcommittee on Health & Human Services and was among the leaders in the House working on the BCMH issue. “After listening to all the people who came before our subcommittee to testify, it became clear to us that this is something that we were not going to deal with in the budget,” he said. “In terms of sustaining the program, we intend to look at it more thoroughly outside the tight time constraints of the budget process.” Hemlock Grange meets Staff Report May meeting.

In terms of compassion, I believe that you really want to help those who are, not only less fortunate, but who are innocent victims of disease that need a hand up so they can have the same opportunities as everyone else.” Reverend David Hoffman is a pastor at the Epworth United Methodist Church in Marion. He serves on several state and national boards that aim to improve the lives of individuals suffering from cystic ﬁbrosis and special healthcare needs, as well as on the BCMH Parents’ Advisory Board. Hoffman is the father of 16-year-old twin daughters, Andrea and Alyson, both of whom have cystic ﬁbrosis. Andrea and Alyson attend Pleasant Local Schools in Marion County and are active in track, cross country and soccer. They are preparing to run their third half marathon this October. “Cystic ﬁbrosis is a complex and costly disease,” Rev. Hoffman said. “We know as a family we can’t do this alone, and we rely on many others to help us in this ﬁght, and the state legislature is part of the team.

During the press conference, he shared his experience of having a son who was diagnosed with cystic ﬁbrosis 23 years ago. “There is nothing more earth-shattering as a parent than to learn the news that your son or daughter is dealing with something so signiﬁcant that it could end their life,” Esiason said. “There are families that are in need, middle-class families with hardworking parents, that need to make sure they have the certainty of care that �E ditorial 4 Tuesday, April 18, 2017 Daily Sentinel FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble; and to petition the government for redress of grievances. THEIR VIEW Reform the tax code now! By Cal Thomas Contributing columnist Thanks to the beneﬁcence of the federal government (and the calendar), we Americans have until midnight on April 18 to ﬁle our income taxes. It’s too bad ﬁling taxes wasn’t an easier process. President Trump has pledged to reform our tax code, which, to most people, currently reads like a foreign language. Trump said tax reform would be a top priority for his administration, but he is up against powerful lobbyists working for the tax preparation industry and also charitable and other organizations who want to keep things just as they are, since some donors would be less likely to contribute if they lose their ability to claim deductions on their taxes. Does anyone believe this tax code language is something we should maintain? “Enter 6 percent of the smaller of line 40 or the value of your Archer MSAs on December 31, 2015, including 2015 contributions made in 2016. Include this amount on Form 1040, line 58A or Form 1040NR, line 56B.” This little gem is in T.R. Reid’s book “A Fine Mess,” a work about our tax system that should raise the ire of any taxpayer not already irate. Business Insider calculates that 31 countries have a simpler tax code than the United States. Estonia ranks ﬁrst in simplicity. Estonia! The federal government collected record amounts of individual income taxes and payroll taxes through the ﬁrst six months of ﬁscal 2017, according to the Monthly Treasury Statement published by CNS News. Through March, CNS’ Terence P. Jeffrey reports, “the federal government collected approximately $695,391,000,000 in individual income taxes. That is about $7,387,280,000 more than the $688,003,720,000 in individual income taxes (in constant 2017 dollars) that the federal government collected in the ﬁrst six months of ﬁscal 2016. “The federal government also collected $547,491,000,000 in Social Security and other payroll taxes during the ﬁrst six months of ﬁscal 2017. That is about $2,731,820,000 more than the $544,491,000,000 in Social Security and other payroll taxes (in constant 2017 dollars) that the government collected in the ﬁrst six months of ﬁscal 2016.” After all that revenue collection (and there is much more, as every taxpayer knows who purchases any product or service, from your telephone bill, to a ticket on a commercial airline), the Treasury still ran a deﬁcit of $526,855,000,000 in the ﬁrst six months of ﬁscal 2017. As Ronald Reagan said, the reason we have a deﬁcit (and a debt approaching $20 trillion) “is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.” In a recent interview on NPR’s “Fresh Air” program with Terry Gross, T.R. Reid said: “I was in the Netherlands on March 31 — their tax day is April 1 — talking to a manager. He makes about $200,000 a year. He has a whole panoply of investments, two kids in private schools, two mortgages. He’d have to ﬁll out 12 forms in the United States. “And I said, Michael, how do you do your taxes? They’re due tomorrow. He says, well, I pop a beer. I go online and see if the government’s got the numbers right. And if they do, I hit a button. Takes ﬁve minutes. He says, but you know, sometimes I start checking the numbers. (If) you start checking the numbers, it could take almost half an hour just to pay your taxes. He was outraged.” The U.S. government has all of our income information (W2s and 1099s). Most of us have a pattern of deductions, from mortgage interest, to charitable giving. Government computers could do the work and send us a bill for what we owe. We could check their numbers, add or subtract from them as warranted and be done with it, instead of enduring an expensive (if we must hire a tax preparer, as I do) and time-consuming experience no one enjoys. Instead, taxpayers struggle to decipher the undecipherable while politicians and lobbyists, who donate to their campaigns, continue to block comprehensive tax reform.

In a non-conference doubleheader on Saturday in Scioto County, a total of only ﬁve runs were scored as the host South Webster baseball team claimed a 2-1 victory, before the visiting Eagles won the second game by a 2-0 count. In the opening game, South Webster went ahead 1-0 in the bottom of the second inning, when Trevor Coriell scored on an error. In the ﬁrst six frames, Eastern (6-3) advanced a total of ﬁve runners into scoring position, only to come up empty. The Eagles ﬁnally broke through with two outs in the top of the seventh, as Owen Arix scored on a single by Austin Coleman. The Jeeps were retired in order in the bottom of the seventh, and the teams headed to extra innings. The Eagles managed only a single in the top of the eighth, leaving the door open for SWHS. Two EHS errors sandwiched around a base on balls, loaded the bases with no outs in the bottom of the eighth. Coriell converted a sacriﬁce ﬂy, plating Alek Blevins to give the hosts a 2-1 win. Coriell was the winning pitcher of record, striking out nine in a complete game. The SWHS senior allowed just one run on eight hits, two walks and one hit batter. Josh Brewer suffered the pitching loss for Eastern, striking out one and walking one, while allowing one run over two innings of relief. EHS starting pitcher Ethen Richmond went 3.2 innings and allowed one run on three hits and a hit batter. Austin Coleman pitched 2.1 innings of scoreless relief, hitting one batter. Coleman and Richmond both struck out two batters. Coleman and Brewer both singled twice to lead the Eagles at the plate in the opening game, with Coleman recording an RBI. Arix singled once and scored once, while John Little, Colton Reynolds and Nate Durst each contributed one hit. Coriell had one hit, one run scored and one RBI to lead the SWHS offense. Eastern committed three errors and left eight runners on base in the loss. Meanwhile, South Webster had zero errors and seven runners left on base. In the second game, Eastern went up 2-0 in the opening inning, as Little crossed home on a wild pitch, and Kaleb Hill was driven in by Richmond. The two runs were enough for EHS, which only allowed the Jeeps to reach third base once in the 2-0 Eagle victory. Hill tossed a complete game and earned the pitching win for the guests, striking out seven batters, walking four and hitting two, while allowing just four hits. Shane Zimmerman also pitched the whole game, striking out three and suffering the setback in the record book. Zimmerman allowed four hits, while See EAGLES | 7 OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Tuesday, April 18 Baseball Wahama at Trimble, 5 p.m. Eastern at Federal Hocking, 5 p.m. River Valley at South Gallia, 5 p.m. Waterford at Southern, 5 p.m. Hannan at Wood County Christian, 5:30 p.m. Point Pleasant at Sissonville, 7 p.m. Softball Point Pleasant vs. Akron Ellet, 8 a.m. (at Myrtle Beach SC) Wahama at Trimble, 5 p.m. Eastern at Federal Hocking, 5 p.m. River Valley at South Gallia, 5 p.m. Waterford at Southern, 5 p.m. Track and Field Eastern, Southern, RVHS at Meigs Re- lays, 4:45 p.m. Wednesday, April 19 Baseball Wahama at Eastern, 5 p.m. Alexander at Meigs, 5 p.m. Gallia Academy at South Point, 5 p.m. Miller at Southern, 5 p.m. Waterford at South Gallia (DH), 5 p.m. Softball Point Pleasant vs. Midlakes (NY), 10 a.m. (at Myrtle Beach SC) Wahama at Eastern, 5 p.m. Alexander at Meigs, 5 p.m. Gallia Academy at South Point, 5 p.m. Miller at Southern, 5 p.m. Waterford at South Gallia (DH), 5 p.m. Tennis Unioto at Gallia Academy, 4:30 p.m. Meigs junior Bailey Caruthers competes in the high jump, in the Meigs Open on March 28.

The Wahama softball team trailed 6-3 through two innings when the original game was halted due to inclement weather on Tuesday, but visiting Waterford made that early lead hold up on Saturday following a hard-fought 10-9 decision in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division contest in Mason County. The Lady Falcons (118, 5-2 TVC Hocking) had a two-game winning streak come to an end while also suffering its second straight league setback as the hosts never could overcome their slow start on Tuesday evening. The Lady Cats (5-4, 3-2) added on to their lead with two runs in the third for an 8-3 edge, but the Red and White answered with two runs in their half of the fourth to again close to within three at 8-5. Waterford tacked on two more runs in the sixth for a 10-5 edge, but the hosts answered with three scores in the sixth to close to within 10-8 headed into the ﬁnale. The Green and White went down in order in the seventh, then Ashtyn Russell smacked a solo homer to left-center with one out in the ﬁnale — cutting the deﬁcit down to 10-9. The Lady Falcons, however, followed with a ground out and a ﬂyout to wrap up the narrow one-run setback. Waterford took a Bryan Walters/OVP Sports Wahama senior Taylor McGrew belts a three-run home run during the second inning of Tuesday’s original start date against Waterford in a TVC Hocking softball contest in Hartford, W.Va. 4-0 lead after the ﬁrst half-inning of play on Tuesday as 10 different batters went to the plate, which led to four runs on three hits, a walk, a hit batter and an error. The hosts, however, answered in the bottom of the ﬁrst as Taylor McGrew belted a threerun homer to left-center for a 4-3 contest through one full frame. Denise Young doubled in Marissa Neader for a 5-3 edge, then Neader scored on a wild pitch to make it a 6-3 contest after two complete. With the resumption of play on Saturday, the Lady Cats picked up an easy run as Ciara Hilverding scored on an error for a 7-3 edge. Young then doubled home Jordan Taylor with two outs as the guests held an 8-3 edge midway through the third. The Lady Falcons cut into that lead in the fourth as Amara Helton singled and later scored on an error for an 8-4 contest, then Hannah Rose scored on a singled by Hannah Billups that made 8-5 after four full frames. Waterford added its ﬁnal two runs in the sixth as Madison Ohse singled home Young, then Ohse scored on an error that made it a 10-5 contest. Rose, however, hit a three-run homer to right-center in the sixth, which allowed the hosts to climb back to within two runs at 10-8. The Lady Cats outhit Wahama by a slim 11-10 overall margin and also committed only one of the four errors in the game. The Lady Falcons stranded only four runners on base, while the guests left eight on the bags. Adah Smitley was the winning pitcher of record after allowing nine earned runs, 10 hits and four walks over seven innings while striking out one.

Trailing 2-0 after Green garnered a pair of runs in the top of the second inning, the Tornadoes stormed back to score three runs in the bottom of the ﬁfth.
