Memories of the Kanauga Drive-in
By Morgan McKinniss
mmckinniss@civitasmedia.com
OHIO VALLEY —
The Kanauga Drive-in
theater was a staple
to local entertainment
in Gallia, Mason and
Meigs counties for more
than 50 years. It was
the host of many late
night movies and several
special events. Though
the drive-in is gone, the
memories live on.
The drive-in was
first opened by Harry
Wheeler in 1950. Harry
was the son of Fred
Wheeler, who purchased
what is now the Ariel
Theater in 1921 to play
talkies (early movies)
and stage shows. Harry
also built the Colony
theater on second avenue
in 1937, where it stood
and played movies for
more than 60 years.
After Harry opened the
drive-in in 1950, the
venue underwent several
changes over the years.
In 1955 it was expanded
20 feet on both sides
for a new movie format, Cinemascope. The
original plastic speaker
boxes were replaced in
the 1980s for newer cast
metal boxes that many
locals remember.
Harry passed away
in the late 1980s, leaving the operation of the
drive-in to his son Tom
Wheeler. Tom also ran
the Colony Theater on
second avenue. The
movie business in Gallia
County directly involved
the Wheeler family in
some form or another
from 1937 to present;
Tom’s wife still operates
a movie rental store on
second avenue in Gallipolis.
“I grew up watching
12 movies a week,” Fred
Wheeler (Tom’s brother)
said. “Back then, we
would run one film Sunday, Monday, Tuesday,
another Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, and
then a special on Saturday.”
He explained this
practice came from the

AG announces grant for new mental health center
Staff Report
TDSnews@civitasmedia.com
ATHENS — Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine
announced Tuesday a new
grant to the National Alliance
on Mental Illness of Ohio
(NAMI) to help construct a
first-of-its-kind community
mental health center in Athens,
Ohio.
When completed, the center
will be the first in the state to
provide patients with extended
in-residence psychiatric care,
serving as a “step-down” facility for patients from the nearby
Appalachian Behavioral Healthcare.
The Adam-Amanda Mental
Health Rehabilitation Center,
named for two young adults
who suffered from mental illness, will teach daily living
skills and provide patients with
extensive counseling, psychotherapy, and access to medical

and dental care.
“I am pleased that my office
is able to support the AdamAmanda center,” said Attorney
General Mike DeWine. “When
opened, I am confident this
center will be an important
asset to those who struggle
with mental illness and their
families.”
According to NAMI, when a
person is admitted to a hospital
in a mental health crisis, he or
she stays an average of seven
days before being discharged.
NAMI expects the time frame
for a stay at the new center to
increase to 50 days, enabling
individuals to receive concentrated care and stabilize under
supervision.
“This grant from the Attorney General’s Office brings us
one step closer to providing
this critical service of extended
care to patients suffering
from severe mental illness,”

POMEROY — Pomeroy Village
Council cancelled their April 17
meeting for lack of quorum.
The light agenda had included payment of bills ($8,781.51), ongoing
discussion of downtown parking, and
an update on the Lincoln Terrace slip
repairs.
Mayor Bryan Shank confirmed the
gas company finished laying new
lines in the area of Lincoln Terrace,
which will allow road repaving later
this spring.
A presentation on Marsy’s Law
by Meigs County Victims’ Advocate
Alexis Schwab was postponed due
to the cancelled meeting. The chair-
person of the Meigs organization
of Marsy’s Law said she hoped to
obtain the council’s endorsement of
the Victim’s Bill of Rights, a measure
that will be on the November ballot.
The Victim’s Bill of Rights is modeled on a California’s “Marsy’s Law,”
which significantly expanded victim’s
presence in court cases, increased
the practice of restitution, and
increased victim’s role in the parole
process.
Schwab summarized the proposed
law, saying “It gives victims more
rights (in the legal system). They
have many already, but right now
they’re called statutory rights, and
they’re not necessarily enforced.”

THEIR VIEW
Facebook fails to
account for dark side
of human nature
By Erika D. Smith
Contributing columnist
“I found somebody
I’m about to kill. I’m
going to kill this guy
right here. He’s an old
dude, too.”
I wish I had never
heard the voice of Steve
Stephens, cold and
cocky as he trolled the
streets of Cleveland on
Easter Sunday.
Recording a shaky
video with his smartphone, the 37-year-old
stopped his white Ford
Fusion and walked over
to Robert Godwin Sr.,
a 74-year-old father of
nine and grandfather
of 14 who was out for
a walk. Still recording,
Stephens asks Godwin
a question and then
shoots him in the head,
zooming in on the
bloody scene before
calmly walking back to
his car.
This gruesome footage — and the pain of
my hometown — was
posted on Facebook,
alongside photos of
cute kids searching
for eggs and families
smiling on the steps of
churches after services.
Police initially
thought that Stephens,
37, had broadcast the
shooting on Facebook
Live, the service that
lets users share their
experiences in real
time. It turns out he
didn’t; he recorded
it on his phone and
uploaded it.
That’s horrific
enough.
But the day is almost
certainly coming when
someone really will
commit murder live
on Facebook, a social
network with 1.86 billion active users. When
that happens, I’m not
sure the Silicon Valley
giant or its peers will
be ready for it.
Time and time again,
enterprising geeks
in the Golden State
have failed to account
for — or straight-up
downplayed — the dark
parts of human nature.
As they idealistically
roll out apps and online
services designed to
make the world more
utopian, they conveniently forget that some
users will eagerly find
ways to use their inventions to make the world
more dystopian.
Ride-sharing services, such as Uber and
Lyft, are seen solely
through the eyes of the
riders who hail them,
not the drivers who get
the short end of the
stick with low wages
and no benefits.
The magic of driverless vehicles, coming
to a road near you, is
talked about merely in
terms of alleviating traffic jams and accidents,
not of the millions of
long-haul truck drivers,
cabbies and delivery
drivers who will soon
be out of a job.
Airbnb, the online
house-sharing service,
didn’t expect hosts
to decline customers
based on foreign- or
black-sounding names.
Faced with evidence of
that it was happening,
the company had to
issue new guidelines to
“It was inexcusable
for Facebook to
leave the video
of Godwin’s last
moments on its site
for three hours.”
curb the practice.
Technology is technology, but people
are people. Greed and
hate don’t just go away
because the interaction
is digital.
Facebook, in particular, has had to learn
this lesson again and
again.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg has always had
an overly optimistic
view of his baby. More
than a social network
or even a media behemoth, he sees Facebook
as a platform with the
power to “make the
world more open and
connected” and “give
people the power to
build a global community that works for all
of us.”
A year ago this
month, he told
Buzzfeed of the thennew Facebook Live
feature: “We built this
big technology platform
so we can go and support whatever the most
personal and emotional
and raw and visceral
ways people want to
communicate are as
time goes on.”
It turns out that
“raw” and “visceral” are
a lot darker than Zuckerberg ever imagined.
Facebook users
have streamed rapes,
assaults and torture
live. Still more disturbing, so many people
have livestreamed their
suicides that Facebook
recently released a
suite of suicide prevention tools.
In January, an
aspiring actor in Los
Angeles started a
Facebook Live session
and shot himself in the
head while sitting in a
parked car. The man’s
family in Texas spotted the livestream and
alerted police, but officers couldn’t find him
in time.
A few days earlier,
a 14-year-old girl in
Miami hanged herself
on Facebook, first making a noose out of a
scarf and attaching it
to a door frame. Police,
once again, arrived too
late.
Perhaps most unsettling, a Turkish man,
distraught over a
breakup, told viewers
in October: “No one
believed when I said
will kill myself. So
watch this.” Then he
tried to shoot himself,
but the gun jammed.
He pulled the trigger
again and the screen
went black.
The internet. It’s
not just for cat videos
anymore. And with
the Godwin murder
on Sunday, Zuckerberg
likely will be forced to
confront that reality.
That’s a good thing.
It was inexcusable
for Facebook to leave

last moments on its site

THEIR VIEW
Spicer has a thankless job, and he’s terrible at it
By Dahleen Glanton
was, among other things,
the party’s head honcho in
negotiating the rules for
the presidential debates.
Now he’s in a no-win
situation. His boss flipflops on the issues, makes
outlandish accusations and
refuses to acknowledge
facts. The press secretary’s
job is to spin that to the
media so that the president
comes out sounding smart.
It’s a dead-end job.
But it could explain
why someone with such
an impressive resume and
loads of experience dealing with the media often
comes off like a buffoon
whenever he holds a press
conference.
I’m going to assume that
Spicer knew that one of
the first rules of politics
is to never make a comparison to Adolf Hitler,
for whom there simply is
no comparison. And you
certainly don’t do it in a
room full of journalists, as
he did at last week’s press
briefing.
Certainly, Spicer must
have known that before
he could finish saying that
Hitler “didn’t even sink to
using chemical weapons,”
the backlash would begin.
His efforts to explain himself only made it worse.
Though Spicer later
said in a CNN interview
with Wolf Blitzer that
he was aware of Hitler’s
gas chambers used to
kill millions of Jews, he
responded to a reporter’s
follow-up question at the
news conference with this:
“I think when you come to
sarin gas, he was not using
the gas on his own people
the same way that (Syrian
President Bashar) Assad is
doing.”
With this kind of material, a “Saturday Night
Live” skit could practically
write itself.
Why would a press
officer with so much experience say something so
stupid? I can only surmise
that he was channeling
his boss. Trump has disrespected African-Americans, disabled people,
Muslims, Latinos, Asians,
women and just about
every other group you can
think of.
How hypocritical would
it be for Trump to reprimand an employee for
making a disparaging comment about the Holocaust
when the president himself
had to be forced to speak
out against the desecration
of Jewish cemeteries?
This is just the latest in
a string of embarrassing
moments Spicer has had
since he started the job in
January. It began with his
first televised Q&A with
the media, in which Spicer
allowed no Q’s.
He started by criticizing the media for what he
called “deliberately false
reporting.” A reporter
had tweeted that a bust
of Martin Luther King Jr.
had been removed from
the Oval Office. Turns out
the reporter just didn’t see
it and later tweeted that
he’d made a mistake. But
On this date:
In 1775, the American
Revolutionary War began
with the battles of Lexington and Concord.
In 1897, the first Boston Marathon was held;
winner John J. McDermott ran the course in
two hours, 55 minutes
and 10 seconds.
In 1935, the Universal Pictures horror film
“Bride of Frankenstein,”
starring Boris Karloff
with Elsa Lanchester
in the title role, had its
world premiere in San

In 1943, during World
War II, tens of thousands
of Jews in the Warsaw
Ghetto began a valiant
but ultimately futile battle against Nazi forces.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Contributing columnist
If you’ve been in the
workforce for any length
of time, chances are you’ve
had a horrible boss.
You know, the kind that
hovers over you to make
sure you’re doing things
exactly the way he or she
wants it done. After all,
no one could possibly be
smarter than the person
who sits behind the big
desk in the company’s biggest office.
I certainly know what
it’s like to have a boss who
is never satisfied, no matter how much you give
of yourself. I spent a year
working for one when I
was in my mid-20s. That’s
why, if I dig deep enough,
I can conjure a tiny bit of
pity for Sean Spicer.
Look, I know what
you’re going to say. Spicer
isn’t some naive kid, fresh
out of college, trying to figure out how to be an adult.
He’s been around the block
a few times. He knew
exactly what he was getting into when he agreed
to be the spokesman for
President Donald Trump.
And no one is forcing him
to remain shackled to the
president.
Spicer, after all, served
five years as communications director for the
Republican National Committee. During the presidential campaign season,
he also took on additional
duties as the RNC’s chief
strategist. In that role, he
to Spicer, the reporter was
“irresponsible and reckless.” So much for making
a mistake.
The biggest mistake
Spicer made, though,
was to try to convince
members of the media that
what they saw at the inauguration wasn’t what they
actually saw. And that the
photographs of the crowd
size misrepresented what
the cameras actually saw.
On his boss’ orders,
Spicer stood before the
media and lied. “This was
the largest audience to
ever witness an inauguration — period — both in
person and around the
globe,” he said. And with
that, his credibility leaped
out the window.
It’s clear that Spicer
has never been a part
of Trump’s inner circle.
According to some news
reports, Trump never
wanted him for the job.
He preferred Kellyanne
Conway. There have been
times when the press secretary has been sent out to
face the media with insufficient and even outdated
information.
Spicer seems to be
eager to trade off his own
professional credibility for
a boss who never had any
credibility. If it were me, I
would have burst into that
big Oval Office long ago
and told my boss to take
this job and shove it.

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Wednesday,
April 19, the 109th day
of 2017. There are 256
days left in the year.
Today’s Highlights in
History:
On April 19, 1967,
Kathrine (cq) Switzer
became the first woman
to run the Boston
Marathon (at that time,
a men-only event) under
an official number by
registering without mentioning her gender; by
her own estimate, she
finished in 4 hours and
20 minutes. (Bobbi Gibb,
running unofficially for
the second time, finished
in 3:27:17.) Former West
German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer died at age
91.
“There is a Law that man should love his
neighbor as himself. In a few hundred
years it should be as natural to mankind as
breathing or the upright gait; but if he does
not learn it he must perish.”
— Alfred Adler,
Austrian psychoanalyst (1870-1937).
MacArthur, relieved of
his Far East command by
President Harry S. Truman, bade farewell in an
address to Congress in
which he quoted a line
from a ballad: “Old soldiers never die; they just
fade away.”
In 1966, Bobbi Gibb,
23, became the first
woman to run the Boston
Marathon at a time when
only men were allowed to
participate. (Gibb jumped
into the middle of the
pack after the sound of
the starting pistol and
finished in 3:21:40.)
In 1977, the Supreme
Court, in Ingraham v.

Eastern junior Josh Brewer slides safely into home plate, during the Eagles’ 8-5
win over Trimble, on Monday in Tuppers Plains.
TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio
— It took a couple of innings,
but once the Eagle bats woke
up, there was no slowing them
down.
The Eastern baseball team
trailed 2-0, two innings into
Monday night’s Tri-Valley
Conference Hocking Division
showdown with visiting Trimble. The Eagles kicked it in to
gear, scoring in each of their
remaining innings to earn the
8-5 victory.
The Tomcats (4-5, 2-3 TVC
Hocking) took their 2-0 lead
in the top of the first inning,
when Richards scored on a balk
and Hooper was singled home
by Wright.
With two outs in the bottom
of the third inning, the Eagles
(7-3, 6-2) finally broke through
and tied the game at two, as
Ethen Richmond singled home
both Austin Coleman and
Kaleb Hill. EHS took the lead
on the very next pitch, when
Josh Brewer singled home
Richmond.
Trimble regained the advantage in the top of the fourth,
however, as Hooper singled
home both Naqucki and Curry.
The Eagles took the lead for
good with two outs in the bottom of the fourth, when Hill
doubled home Coleman and
Ryan Lauer.
Eastern extended its lead to
6-4 in the bottom of the fifth,
when Josh Brewer singled,
stole two bases, and then
scored on an error.
The Eagle lead was stretched
to a game-high four runs, at
8-4, in the bottom of the sixth
inning, when Richmond singled
home Coleman and Colton
Reynolds.
Trimble loaded the bases
with no outs in the top of the
seventh, but Coleman struck
out back-to-back batters. The
Tomcats pushed one run home
on a hit batter, but Coleman

Valley of Thunder
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com
WILLOW WOOD, Ohio — The Lady Eagles
suffered their first loss of the season, but not all
was lost.
The Eastern softball team won its opening game
of the Valley of Thunder tournament, at Symmes
Valley High School on Saturday, defeating Berea
Midpark by a 10-7 count. However, in their second
game, the Lady Eagles dropped a 6-2 decision to
Lakota East.
In their first game, the Lady Eagles (8-1) took a
three-run lead in the bottom of the first inning, as
Emmalea Durst doubled home Ally Barber, Cera

Berea Midpark (3-8) charged into the lead in the
top of the second inning, scoring six runs on the
strength of six hits, including five extra-base hits.
Eastern got one run back in the bottom of the
second when Durst drove home Courtney Fitzgerald.
In the bottom of the third, Eastern tied the
game when Rockhold doubled home both Grueser
and Katlyn Barber. EHS regained the lead, at 7-6,
in the next at-bat, as Rockhold moved to third on
a passed ball and then scored on a Mollie Maxon
sacrifice fly.
Following a scoreless fourth frame for both
sides, the EHS lead grew to 9-6 in the bottom of
the fifth, as Katlyn Barber scored on a double by
Grueser, who was then doubled in by Rockhold.
The Lady Titans scored once in the top of the
sixth, but EHS Grueser drove in Durst in the bottom of the inning, for the final run of Eastern’s
10-7 win.
Elaina Hensley struck out one batter in a complete game effort, earning the win for EHS, while
allowing seven runs on 11 hits and three walks.
Sienna Apel suffered the setback for Midpark.
Rockhold led the victors with a 3-for-4 day at the
plate, that included two doubles, one run scored
and four runs batted in. Grueser was 2-for-4 with
a double, two runs scored and three RBIs, Durst
was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and two RBIs,
while Fitzgerald was 2-for-3 with one run scored.
Katlyn Barber singled once and scored a gamebest three runs, Ally Barber chipped in with a single and a run scored, while Sidney Cook singled
once and Maxon added an RBI.
Midpark — a Division I school — was led by
Ashley Boledovic, who was 3-for-4 with two doubles, two RBIs and one run scored. Sarah Harris
blasted a two-run home run for the Lady Titans, in
the second inning.
Both teams had one error in the game. Eastern
left five runners on base, while Midpark stranded
six.
In the second game, Lakota East (8-2-1) — also
a Division I school — claimed a 1-0 lead in the
first inning, then scored twice in each the third
and fourth frames.
The Lady Eagles didn’t reach third base until

Jones was caught stealing for the second out,
as Cierra Roberts in the

Southern storms past Falcons, 9-1
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com
HEMLOCK, Ohio — A
pitching gem with some
offense to back it up.
Not only did the Southern baseball team get a
complete game no-hitter
from junior pitcher Dylan
Smith, but the Tornadoes
crossed home plate nine
times en route to a 9-1
victory over Tri-Valley
Conference Hocking
Division host Miller.
The Falcons (3-6, 3-4
TVC Hocking) actually
led 1-0 in the game, as
Geil drew a base on balls
and later scored, in the
bottom of the second
inning.
After leaving three
runners on base over
the first two innings,
Southern (8-3, 7-2) broke
through for the first time
with two-outs in the
third inning. Aided by a
pair of MHS errors, Gage
Shuler, Trey Pickens and
Billy Harmon each came
around to score and give
the Tornadoes a 3-0 lead.
Southern was held
scoreless in the fourth
and fifth frames, however, leaving a total of
three runners on base in
the process.
With two outs in the
top of the sixth, SHS rallied for four more runs,
pushing its lead to 7-1.
The Tornadoes added
two more insurance runs
in the top of the seventh,
when Blake Johnson
drove in Garrett Wolfe
and Smith drove in
Logan Dunn.
Miller advanced into
scoring position on an
error in the bottom of
the seventh, but failed
to score, as Southern
claimed the 9-1 win.
Smith earned the win
on the mound for the
guests, allowing one run
and two walks, while
striking out 10 batters.
Hetlich suffered the
pitching loss for the Falcons.
Trey Pickens led the
SHS offense with a
double, two runs scored
and three runs batted in.
Johnson singled once,
scored once and drove in
a run in the win, Harmon
added a singled and a
run scored, while Jensen
Anderson had one single
and one RBI.
Smith helped his own
cause, scoring one and
driving in one run, while
Logan Dunn scored
twice. Shuler and Wolfe
contributed one run
apiece to the winning
cause.
Miller committed three
errors in the game, two
more than Southern.
The Tornadoes left nine
runners on base in total,
while the Falcons stranded one runner.
After hosting Waterford on Tuesday, Southern will return home to
host Miller, on Wednesday.

Parkersburg White Falcons avenge Belpre, 18-8
South sweeps
Meigs, 8-3
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com
PARKERSBURG, W.Va. — So much for second
chances.
The Meigs baseball team — which suffered a 6-2
loss to Parkersburg South, in Rocksprings on April
10 — fell to the Patriots again on Saturday in Wood
County, this time by an 8-3 margin.
The Marauders (7-5) took a 1-0 lead in the top
of the first inning, as Briar Wolfe singled and then
came around to score.
The Patriots (11-3-1) — who have now won
three straight games — were held scoreless in the
opening frame, but more than made up for it in
the second, scoring five runs on four hits and four
walks.
Meigs cut its deficit to three runs in the top of
the third, when Tyler Williams singled and later
scored. Parkersburg South got the run back in the
top of the fourth, but the Marauders scored a run in
the top of the fourth, when Williams singled home
Cole Arnott.
Two MHS errors allowed the Patriots to score
two runs in the fifth inning, extending the PSHS
lead to its final margin of 8-3. The Marauders were
just 1-for-10 in their 10 plate appearances over the
final three innings.
Collin Bryant earned the pitching victory for
Parkersburg South, striking out five batters in five
innings of work. Bryant allowed three runs on three
hits and five walks. Chase Freshour pitched the
final two frames for the hosts, striking out four batters and allowing one hit.
K.J. Tracy suffered the pitching loss for Meigs,
allowing four runs on two hits and three walks, in
1.2 innings of work. Matt Gilkey struck out two batters in 4.1 innings of work, while allowing four runs
on seven hits and two walks. Wesley Smith pitched
the final frame for MHS, walking one and hitting
