The organization is already gearing up for the September yard sale which will beneﬁt the Class of 2018. RACO member Dr. Melanie Weese said Cruisin’ Saturday Night Car Show Scholarship Recipients present were Tanner Thorla, Haley Musser, Talon Drummer and Clayton Wood. that it is the support of the generous community, members and non-members alike, that make it possible to give the scholarships to the graduates.

PORTLAND — Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine and members of the Major Crimes Task Force of Gallia and Meigs Counties announced Monday that a Columbus man is in custody following the seizure of two kilograms of heroin. According to the task force, this is the largest heroin seizure in the history of Meigs County. Investigators estimate that the drugs have a street value of approximately $484,000. Inielsis Guillot, 41, was arrested early Monday morning on charges of trafﬁcking in heroin and possession of heroin. Both charges are felonies of the ﬁrst degree. Authorities said the drugs were found concealed in Guillot’s vehicle after the Ravenswood (West Virginia) Police Department initiated a trafﬁc stop in West Virginia that traveled across the Ravenswood Bridge into Portland, Ohio. The case is being investigated by the Major Crimes Task Force of Gallia and Meigs Counties, which is part of the Ohio Attorney General’s Ohio Organized Crime Investigations Commission. “I’m very pleased that investigators were able to intercept these drugs before they could be sold to those suffering from addiction,” said Attorney General DeWine. “Ohio is in the middle of an opiate epidemic that doesn’t and option on 10 acres of land in the area where a new road POMEROY — Friday mornhas been recently constructed, ing’s Chamber Chatter allowed with an additional option of for local business representa10 acres available.

TVMA (4:40) �NEWS Daily Sentinel Grow From page 1 facility. Haseley estimated that there could be hundreds of groups, organizations or individuals who have an interest in ﬁling an application for the 12 Level 1 grow facilities to be constructed in the state, but that some may drop out before the applications are ﬁled. This is due to the $20,000 application fee which is nonrefundable, as well as the 60-plus page application. Haseley explained that a proposed 25,000 square foot greenhouse facility would employ 40 to 50 full-time employees with full beneﬁts and average starting salary of $15 per hour. It could potentially employ more than 100 full-time staff and grow to 75,000 square foot of space depending on demand. While the cannabis would be grown at the facility, it would be shipped to another facility for processing and later sold at a state licensed pharmacy through a doctor’s prescription. The application for the proposed facility must be ﬁled with the state by June 30, with an answer anticipated by midSeptember. Should it be approved, construction and production would be expected within a year. Haseley stated that the legislation passed by the state is some of the most restrictive and highly regulated in order to ensure that that door is not opened to recreational use.

Much of the sentiment of the group at the Chamber Chatter was that these facilities are going to be built in the state and why should Meigs County not be part of that. “Our part of the state should not be overlooked in this process,” added Haseley. Community support, as well as the potential economic impact are two of the things that could set the Meigs County application apart from others.

Thomasson Contributing columnist Just throw an idea out there, no matter how crazy, and in today’s world people — sometimes a surprising number of them — will buy it. As a friend used to say, “I can teach it round or I can teach it ﬂat.” And that was before the internet made it much easier. Elvis is alive living in Paraguay, or is it Hitler who lives there and Elvis in a secret room in Graceland where he subsists on peanut butter and banana sandwiches? Lyndon Johnson was part of the conspiracy to assassinate John F. Kennedy, having cut a deal with Fidel Castro and the Mob. The moon landing was a fake, and how about this one: Hillary Clinton was running a child sex slave operation out of a pizza parlor in Washington? But the winner of the most detestable theory: The Sandy Hook massacre of 20 children was a hoax. All these conspiracy theories and dozens more have been given credence at one time or another and snapped up by TV news looking for ratings among the nut cakes that populate more of the earth than one might imagine. Now because everyone is connected to everyone else through the insidious marvels of the information highway, instant gratiﬁcation with all the “real” news is never far from our reach, 24-7. One doesn’t have to wait for the “fake” news of the mainstream media, which even enhances the world of make believe by interviewing the theorists about their most preposterous claims, thereby giving them even more credibility. It makes seers and stars out of persons who, if they truly believe their own babble, belong in one of those ominous places that studded the landscape before the Supreme Court turned loose the inmates to talk to themselves on street corners. In fact, one might do as well to head for a park, overpass, or downtown street to ﬁnd an interview subject. It would be cheaper. Just be careful not to touch the grocery cart full of precious possessions. One of them might be a portrait of Donald Trump. The excuse for giving Alex Jones — one of the purveyors of the Sandy Hook hoax theory — any airtime is to reveal to the vast network audience just how deeply into banana-land he is. Exposing him is the right thing to do, or is it? Truth is that such revelations often add followers. Saying outrageous things appeals to true believers, especially if the one doing so has the attention of a president. The White House even gave Jones’ website, infowars.com, a day press pass and Trump has praised Jones’ “amazing reputation.” Therefore, it might be considerably better to stay as far away as possible from not only those who spread their conspiracies but those who subscribe to them, unless in either case one happens to be president of the United States and then one might want to consider taking some other action. An expert on fable construction once explained in detail just how he could take the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and connect it to that of John Kennedy 100 years later. While it was among the more convoluted of theories, it made sense in a diabolic way. And, of course, that is the problem. They all share some weird similarities. So, giving exposure to them is exceedingly dangerous. It might prompt someone to ﬁre a gun in a restaurant, which is what happened at the Washington pizza place that was linked to the bogus child sex ring, or desecrate the memory of little children who were victims of a monstrous event like Sandy Hook. THEIR VIEW Release the power within the rock I poured the orange juice on the potted plant with the most regal of intents. The vitamin packed liquid would provide the plant with a ton of nutrition and it would thrive—or so I thought. Later in the week my dad, sister and I sat, noses wrinkled and forks saluting midair at the dining room table, as a pungent smell permeated the room, and this time I knew it wasn’t coming from spaghetti I’d burnt. Ten minutes later we’d identiﬁed the green centerpiece as the culprit. The ribbing I got chased me through stories for years … and I’m thankful for each stinky, burnt, laugh-infused memory of growing up with a single father as my parent and a little sister as my usually unwilling protégé. Each family has a foundation—a rock upon which the entire clan gathers around for warmth, advise, compassion and a swift kick in the butt when needed—a rock upon which each member feels secure enough to erect their own family structure and upon which the building of each load-bearing wall depends.

Gangster Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegel was shot dead at the Beverly Hills, California, home of his girlfriend, Virginia Hill, apparently at the order of mob associates. In 1966, the Beatles album “Yesterday and Today” was released by Capitol Records, initially with its notorious “butcher” cover photo which ended up being replaced. In 1977, the ﬁrst oil began ﬂowing through the recently completed Trans-Alaska Pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez (val-DEEZ’). In 1988, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously upheld a New York City law making it illegal for private clubs with more than 400 members to exclude women and minorities. In 1990, South African black nationalist Nelson Mandela and his wife, Winnie, arrived in New York City for a ticker-tape parade in their honor as they began an eight-city U.S. tour. In 2001, Houston resident Andrea Yates drowned her ﬁve children in the family bathtub, then called police. (Yates was later found guilty of murder, but had her conviction overturned; she outstretched arm of affection and with each pat on the back given, not due to catching the winning touchdown, but simply due to putting on the uniform and running onto the ﬁeld, fearless and undaunted by the pessimists of the world. Fathers teach, but sometimes the lessons are complicated, sometimes the directions are muddled and not explained well even if they are taught with the best of intent. Fathers aren’t perfect, but the light within the swords they have been entrusted with is impeccable. As you congregate around your fathers, your rocks, I hope you rekindle a renewed exuberance for the ﬁre burning inside of each one. That ﬁre can either light a path for those tiny footsteps that follow or it can consume you with rage, burning up all the kindling and extinguishing the power.

The North Bears stormed out to an early 10-0 lead and ultimately held on for a tightly-contested 10-7 victory over the South Cardinals during the 2017 West Virginia North-South Football Classic held Saturday night at Laidley Field on the campus of the University of Charleston. Neither the Bears nor the Cardinals mustered more than 265 yards of total offense, and each squad went about doing its offensive damage in different ways. The North averaged more than ﬁve yards per carry while churning out 198 of its 264 total yards on the ground, while the South produced 225 yards through the air out of its ﬁnal tally of 244 yards. After both offenses sputtered on their opening drives, the Bears put together a substantial gain that resulted in the ﬁrst points of the game following a successful 31-yard ﬁeld goal from Miguel Pereira. Pereira, from Spring Mills, gave the North a 3-0 advantage with 1:13 remaining in the ﬁrst period. The Cardinals had their ensuing drive stall, which led to a remarkable punt that was downed inside the one — leaving the Bears in a very tight situation. From its own endzone, North quarterback Will Billeter completed a 32-yard sideline pass to Corey McDonald. On the following play, Billeter — from St. Marys — faked a handoff and rumbled 67 yards to paydirt as a little misdirection gave the Bears their largest lead of the night with 7:35 remaining before halftime. The Cardinals wasted no time in retaliating as the South marched down to the North’s 23-yard line, then Cody Fuller ﬂoated a jump ball to the right corner for Bryan Walters/OVP Sports Former Point Pleasant standout Zach Wamsley shakes a block by East Hardy’s Luke French (77) during the first half of the 2017 North-South Football Classic held Saturday at Laidley Field in Charleston, W.Va. Carter Sebert-Sweeney. Sebert-Sweeney — from Nicholas County — hauled in the pass over two Bears defenders at the ﬁve, then turned and successfully lunged for the goal line all in one motion. Sebert-Sweeney’s touchdown grab at the 4:37 mark of the second quarter made it a 10-7 contest headed into halftime. Both squads again had their opening drives stall in the second half, then the South marched the ball down to the North ﬁve before a penalty moved them back ﬁve yards. The Cardinals attempted a 30-yard ﬁeld goal, but Matthew Molina’s attempt sailed wide at the 3:38 mark — allowing the Bears to maintain their 10-7 edge. With the temperatures dropping, the fourth quarter led to a bit more intensity in trying to determine a winner. The North appeared to put things away at the 9:35 mark after a long bomb led to a touchdown, but the Bears were called for a pen- alty on the play — which negated the score and eventually led to a blocked punt that was recovered by Point Pleasant’s Grant Safford at midﬁeld. The South beneﬁted from a controversial leading with the helmet penalty that extended its drive inside the Bears 30, but the North caught its own break three plays later when Nathaniel Frazier of Lewis County recovered a fumble at the Bears 24.

Camps will be conducted throughout the months of June and July on the URG campus. The schedules, broken down by individual sports, are as follows: Celtics trade No. 1 overall draft pick to 76ers BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Celtics have traded the No. 1 pick in this week’s NBA draft to the Philadelphia 76ers. Boston will get the Sixers’ pick, No. 3 overall, and another ﬁrst-rounder in 2018 or 2019. The teams agreed to the deal over the weekend, hours after expected top pick Markelle Fultz worked out for the Sixers. Philadelphia will select ﬁrst for the second straight year. In 2016, the Sixers picked Ben Simmons, who didn’t play at all during the season after breaking a bone in his foot. The Celtics could be gearing up for more moves. After North From page 6 Frazier’s takeaway proved to be the only turnover of the game … and it came with 7:10 remaining in the contest. The Bears ate up some clock with an extended ground attack, but the North was ultimately forced to punt with under three minutes left. The Cardinals had four unsuccessful attempts at gaining a ﬁrst down, which led to the Bears taking over possession at the South 11 with 1:53 remaining. The North had its ﬁnal drive stall on downs at the two, allowing the South just 11.5 seconds Sports From page 6 from Monday, July 10, through Wednesday, July 12, and be from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m. in the Gallia Academy High School gymnasium. Players will practice volleyball skills, work on volleyball fundamentals, and play volleyball games. The camp will conclude on Wednesday with athletes participating in game play from 6:30-8 p.m. Parents and spectators are welcome. The cost is $60 per athlete, and each athlete will receive a camp t-shirt. Registrations may be picked up at the GAHS Ofﬁce Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. and from some local busi- ﬁnishing with the No. 1 seed in the East this season, they are trying to package some of their picks for an established star that could help them close the gap on NBA ﬁnalists Cleveland and Golden State. The deal was ﬁrst reported by TheVertical.com. With Isaiah Thomas and Al Horford, president of basketball operations Danny Ainge is looking to make a deal like the sevenfor-one trade in 2007 that brought Kevin Garnett — and an NBA-record 17th championship — to Boston. “We’re thrilled to be able to select what we expect to be an impact player with the third pick in this year’s very talented draft class, while also adding a highly valuable future asset as we continue to build towards Banner 18,” Ainge said in a statement. If Boston holds onto the pick, it would have seven ﬁrst-rounders in the next three years. The 76ers have a chance to add a point guard to the roster of big men they’ve assembled through their years of returning to the draft lottery. Fultz would join Jahlil Okafor, Joel Embiid and Simmons. Fultz’s rise to stardom has been rapid. In 2014, he was playing junior varsity basketball in high school in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Tuesday, June 20, 2017 7 Larson outlasts Elliott at Michigan again BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — Three times, Kyle Larson needed to outrace the rest of the contenders on late restarts. That’s a task he’s proven he can handle at Michigan International Speedway. Larson took control on a restart with ﬁve laps remaining and held off Chase Elliott on Sunday for his second NASCAR Cup Series victory of the season. The ﬁnish was similar to the race at Michigan last August, when Larson took the lead on a restart with nine laps left en route to his ﬁrst Cup win. Larson won this year at Fontana and has ﬁve second-place ﬁnishes. He also was second in the All-Star race, which doesn’t count in the standings. “We’ve been so close to so many other wins,” the 24-yearold Larson said. “This is our second Cup win of the year, but we’ve had six second-place ﬁnishes. All in all, it’s a good season so far and we’ll continue to keep building on what we’ve got.” It was the third Cup win of Larson’s career and 14th by Chip Ganassi Racing. Elliott was second in both Michigan races last year, and again this time. He’s winless in 56 career Cup races, but he’s ﬁfth in points in 2017. “We had a couple of opportunities to get the lead, and unfortunately, it just didn’t work out, but we’ll move on. Congratulations to Kyle,” the 21-year-old Elliott said. “He had a fast car today and we’ll try to go get ‘em next week.” Joey Logano ﬁnished third. He beat Elliott in last June’s race at MIS. Then Elliott was leading the August race comfortably before a yellow ﬂag gave Larson a boost . This time, there were three cautions toward the end. The ﬁrst was for debris, and Larson beat Kyle Busch on the inside for the lead on the restart with 15 laps to go. Then Clint Bowyer went into the wall, bringing out another caution ﬂag. Larson was ﬁrst to cover 98 yards for the potential game-winning drive. The Cardinals opted to throw a short pass to pick up yardage, but they were unable to get another play off before the clock hit all zeroes — allowing the North to win back-to-back games in this series for the ﬁrst time since 2004-05. The South claimed a small 11-10 edge in ﬁrst downs and also had only ﬁve of the dozen punts in the contest, but the Cardinals did also commit the only turnover of the night. The Bears were penalized eight times for 70 yards, while the South drew seven ﬂags for 35 yards. Billeter led the North with 71 rushing yards on two carries and also completed one pass for 32 yards. Latrell Warr also had 69 yards on 17 carriers, while Isaac Myers was 4-of-10 passing for 34 yards. Trevor Hoosier grabbed two passes for 21 yards for the Bears as well. Joe Hunt led the Cardinals with 18 rushing yards and Dylan Lucas added 17 yards on the ground. Darnell Brooks led the wideouts with six catches for 79 yards. Tate Mayes was 8-of11 passing for 134 yards, while Fuller completed 7-of-15 passes for 91 yards and a score. Point Pleasant had two representatives involved with the South team in recent graduates Grant Safford and Zach Wamsley. Both played on the defensive side of the ball in the setback. Afterwards, Safford spoke about participating in the event and what made it so special for him. “I’m very proud to have been here for this because it was a great experience,” Safford said. “There are a lot of college-bound players here and the game was deﬁnitely being played at another level tonight, so it was a really good test for me personally. “The other thing about this is getting to know the guys on this South team. It’s one thing when you are playing against them, nesses. Players may also register at 5:30 p.m. Monday, July 10, outside of the GAHS gymnasium.

Kiwanis Juniors Golf Tournament GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — The Cliffside Golf Club will be hosting the ninth annual Kiwanis Juniors at Cliffside golf tournament for junior golfers on Thursday, July 13, starting at 10 a.m. Registration will be from 9 a.m. until 9:45. This is an individual stroke play tournament off that restart too, only to be slowed by another caution after a multicar incident on the backstretch that included Danica Patrick being knocked off the track and into the wall. Finally, with ﬁve laps remaining, the race restarted, and Larson took the lead on the outside. He won by 0.993 seconds in his No. 42 Chevrolet. Martin Truex Jr. won the ﬁrst two stages of the race but ﬁnished sixth, ceding the points lead to Larson. Truex has 10 stage victories this year. Nobody else has more than four. Truex and Larson were 1-2 in the points standings coming into the race, and Truex was second to Larson in qualifying Friday . Their dominance carried over to the race Sunday, at least at the start. They were the only drivers to lead during the ﬁrst half of the 200-lap, 400mile race. Denny Hamlin, who won Saturday’s Xﬁnity event, ﬁnished fourth Sunday, followed by Jamie McMurray and Truex. Busch ended up seventh, followed by Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jimmie Johnson, who started at the back after going to his backup car, ﬁnished 10th. FROM THE FRONT This was the ﬁfth time in the past eight races at Michigan that the pole winner also won the race. It has happened three times in the Cup Series this year — Larson also did it at Fontana, and Stenhouse pulled it off at Talladega last month. Still, Larson didn’t feel he had the dominant car Sunday. “The 78 (Truex) was by far the class of the ﬁeld, I thought,” Larson said. “I thought the 18 (Busch) was next best, the 20 (Matt Kenseth) was better than I was on the long run. I thought we were probably a third- or fourth-place car, and then to come out a winner, it makes it that much more exciting, I guess.” but it’s another thing to get to know them over the last week as teammates. I’ve met a lot of really great people through this experience, and that’s something I’ll always cherish.” Wamsley, too, was honored to be part of the all-star competition. “It was really nice to get to meet these guys on the South team this week. They are good guys and you get to see their passion for football is as strong as ours is at Point Pleasant,” Wamsley said. “This was a great experience, especially getting to meet all of these guys that you have played against in the past. It’s easier to get to know these guys when they Tee Box ages include: White up to 54, yellow 55 to 64, red 65 to 74, and Orange 75+ and women.

The Reds’ banished hits king was ﬁnally in bronze. On a sizzling afternoon, thousands of fans packed the entrance to Great American Ball Park for the latest tribute to their favorite baseball son. The Cincinnati native became the eighth Reds star honored with a sculpture outside the ballpark. “It’s just an honor to be on the same block with these guys,” said Rose, who is banned from Cooperstown because he bet on baseball. “This has to be the ultimate goal for any player of his or her sport.” With Major League Baseball’s permission, the Reds have been catching up on honoring their most famous — and most controversial — player in the past few years. Last June, they inducted him into the team’s Hall of Fame and retired his No. 14 in front of capacity crowds. With the Reds still in a rebuilding phase on the ﬁeld, the weekend honoring Rose with a sculpture became their biggest promotion. They drew 36,613 fans for their game Friday night against the Dodgers that kicked off the weekend festivities, their largest crowd since opening day. The Reds lost 3-1, extending their losing streak to seven games. It was 90 degrees on Saturday — several fans fainted in the tightly packed crowd — for the unveiling before the second game of the series. The game drew the Reds’ ﬁrst capacity crowd since opening day. The 76-year-old hits leader is banned from baseball’s Hall of Fame. Commissioner Rob Manfred has denied Rose’s latest petition for reinstatement, but hasn’t ruled out making him eligible for Cooperstown someday. Hall of Famers Johnny Bench, Tony Perez and Joe Morgan were among those attending the festivities on Saturday. Morgan missed last year’s gathering because of longstanding health issues. Morgan walked with the help of two metal canes on Saturday. Bench, Morgan and Notices Pets Want To Buy NOTICE OHIO VALLEY PUBLISHING CO.

Bench agreed, teasing him about their failed partnerships in a bowling alley and a car dealership. Rose also took issue with suggestions that the Reds spend too much time honoring the Big Red Machine that won World Series titles in 1975-76. Rose said that honoring those teams and players also honors the franchise. “If that don’t make any sense, you can go to hell,” Rose said. Rose wore an all-white Reds cap and his Reds Hall of Fame jacket for the sculpture unveiling and an on-ﬁeld ceremony before the second game of the series against the Dodgers. Rose thought it appropriate that he was depicted sliding headﬁrst, something he said he started doing when he was 9 years old. “I think you’d have to agree that I was kind of known for being aggressive, and part of being aggressive is sliding headﬁrst,” Rose said, adding, “And you always get your picture in the paper.” Rose also will be inducted into the Philadelphia Phillies’ Wall of Fame in an on-ﬁeld ceremony on Aug. 12 prior to the club’s game against the New York Mets. Rose helped the Phillies to one of their two world championships during his ﬁve seasons in Philadelphia from 197983.

Rose noted that baseball’s investigation of his gambling consumed that summer and overshadowed Bench’s big moment. Rose said he would have been upset, too. “Believe me, I didn’t ask for that investigation,” said Rose, who denied for years that he had bet on baseball before ﬁnally acknowledging that he had.
