Tony Dejak | AP A man walks past a closed business Wednesday in Chagrin Falls, Ohio. The U.S. economy shrank at a 4.8% annual rate last quarter as the coronavirus pandemic shut down much of the country and began triggering a recession that will end the longest expansion on record. State tops 1M unemployment claims over 6 weeks amid virus COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — More than 1 million people filed unemployment claims in the past six weeks as Ohio’s stay-at-home order depressed the economy and led to widespread layoffs, the state reported Thursday. For the week ending April 25, 92,920 people filed jobless claims, according to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. That’s down from the 109,369 claims filed the previous week. The numbers announced Thursday pushed total claims during the pandemic to 1,057,486, or about 340,000 more than the total number of claims over the past two years. The state says it has now distributed more than $1.45 billion in unemployment checks to more than 481,000 claimants. State officials say more than 1,600 workers are taking calls at Ohio’s seven-day-a-week call center. “Each claim is important to us, and we recognize the hardship that the COVID-19 pandemic has placed on many Ohio families,” the agency said in a statement. Phillip Skunza of Columbus lost his job as a waiter and bartender in mid-March when Republican Gov. Mike DeWine shuttered all restaurants and bars. Skunza made too little to be eligible for traditional unemployment insurance, and has managed so far on his $1,200 federal stimulus check. Under the recently passed federal Pandemic Unemployment Act, the 52-year-old Skunza is now eligible for a portion of his earnings — which were less than $300 a week — plus a weekly payment of $600. He’s going to need the help soon, he said, with rent covered only through June. Registration for the program, which is a mix of state and federal dollars, opened last week, with more than 139,00 Ohio registrants to date. “I’ve got my hopes up that this will help me out,” he said Thursday. “I’m not looking for a huge windfall.” Ohio begins its slow reopening Friday with many health care offices, followed by construction companies, distributors, manufacturers and offices on Monday, and retail businesses on May 12. Bars, restaurants and movie theaters remain closed, and sporting events and concerts are still prohibited. Nationally, more than 3.8 million laid-off workers applied for unemployment benefits last week. Roughly 30.3 million people have now filed for jobless aid in the six weeks since the coronavirus outbreak began, forcing millions of employers to close their doors. In other coronavirusrelated developments in Ohio: Cases The state has 975 presumptive or confirmed virus-related deaths, and more than 18,000 cases, including more than 3,500 hospitalizations, the Ohio Health Department reported Thursday. For most people, the virus causes mild or moderate symptoms that clear up in a couple of weeks. Older adults and people with existing health problems are at higher risk of more severe illness, including pneumonia, or death. Nursing homes Outbreaks in nursing homes across Ohio have killed at least 276 residents during the past two weeks. That represents nearly 30% of all See UNEMPLOYMENT | 3 2020 Law Day Meigs Board celebrates 19th approves teaching contracts Amendment Certified personnel rehired on three year contracts beginning ROCKSPRINGS — The Meigs Local Board with the 2020-21 school year were Erin Lisle, of Education approved Garrett Riffle, Hannah several contracts with Thompson, Kim Barrett, district staff during its Elizabeth Massie, Derek recent meeting.

Staff Report By James K. Stanley Special to OVP POMEROY — May 1, 2020 is Law Day, and this year’s theme is “Your Vote, Your Voice, Our Democracy: The 19th Amendment at 100.” This year, the United States is celebrating the centennial of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution which guaranteed women the right to vote, and Law Day is recognizing this transformative amendment and the many activists responsible for its passage. The 19th Amendment, known as the Woman Suffrage Amendment, was ratified on August 20, 1920. The national women’s voting rights movement began in 1848 at the Seneca Falls Convention. Soon thereafter, women’s rights activists Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Motts, and Susan B. Anthony, amongst others, lobbied the government for women’s voting rights, and they worked tirelessly to promote public awareness of and garner public support for women’s suffrage. Seventy-two years later, their efforts and See DAY | 3 �OBITUARIES/NEWS 2 Friday, May 1, 2020 OBITUARIES Ohio Valley Publishing GOD’S KIDS KORNER JURRIE M. (WOLFORD) REYNOLDS GALLIPOLIS — Jurrie M.

Nothing is a surprise to Him, so He always knows what is happening, what will happen, and what to do about it. We don’t have to second guess His decisions for the world or our lives. He only wants what is best for us. Deuteronomy 3: 22 tells us, “Do not be afraid of them; the Lord your God Himself will fight for you.” Then in the last book of the Bible, Revelation 1:17 it says, “Then He placed His right hand on me and said: ‘Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last.” Let’s say our prayer for this week. Father God, thank You for making the world for us and overseeing it all. Thank You for loving us enough to send Jesus to save us from our sins. Thank You for being so good and kind to us always. Thank You for being our God! Please bless all those who are suffering for whatever reason in their bodies, minds, or spirits. Please bless all those people who are helping us in this time of the virus. Help us to stay safe and not be afraid. In Your name we pray. Amen.

Prisons Two prison employees and 27 Ohio prison inmates have died from COVID19, according to the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. A total of 3,890 inmates have tested positive, but the prisons agency has only conducted universal testing at three facilities to date, leaving actual positive cases up in the air. Correctional officers are being pushed to the brink, working multiple stretches of 16-hour shifts with many colleagues out sick and getting by with the bare minimum of personal protective equipment, especially masks, said Brian Miller, a guard at hard-hit Marion Correctional Institution who is out recovering from COVID-19. “Being a corrections officer is a dangerous job on a good day — right now it’s hell,” said Miller, a 20-year veteran.

Prisons director Annette ChambersSmith said the system started planning for a pandemic after the H1N1 outbreak in 2009 when she was prisons health director. Once the coronavirus hit, the system prohibited prison visitors early on, stopped movement between prisons, took measures to produce and acquire personal protective equipment, and stepped up sanitation measures, among many efforts. “There literally is no part of the prison system that hasn’t been touched with what we’re trying to do about the pandemic,” Chambers-Smith said.

Consider the reality that through the salvation experience Christians become the elect children of God. The church is regarded as the “Bride of Christ.” We are gifted by the Holy Spirit. We are given insight into the Word of God. We are blessed with God-given privileges designed only for us. We are privileged to “sit in Heavenly places in Christ.” Yet, despite these distinct advantages given to us by God, we are directed to demonstrate an othersdirected attitude and mindset. We are not to be proud or arrogant. Apostle Paul set the tone. He said that we as the “elect of God” should qualify Christian virtues toward others, such as mercy, kindness, humbleness of mind, and patient forbearance of others. We are to qualify the ministry of Christ, who did not come to be served, but to serve. In other words, the spiritually endowed power of the front is supposed to be used by the Christian to represent Christ. In this way, others best experience the love of God. In this way, Christ is glorified for the benefit of those who need Him. How are you employing your power of the front?

Goodell, who makes upward of $30 million a year from salaries and bonuses, voluntarily had his salary reduced this month, a person familiar with the move tells The Associated Press on Wednesday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the NFL has not announced the move publicly. The league also is implementing tiered reductions in base salary, beginning with the pay period ending May 22. The reduction will be 5% for workers up to the manager’s level, 7% for directors, 10% for vice presidents, 12% for senior vice presidents, and 15% for executive vice presidents. In a memo sent to league office staffers, Goodell also said no employee earning a base salary of less than $100,000 will be affected by these reductions, and no employee’s salary will be reduced below $100,000 by the reductions. “We hope that business conditions will improve and permit salaries to be returned to their current levels, although we do not know when that will be possible,” Goodell said. While the NFL has gone about business as usual with free agency and the draft — and currently is planning to play a full season beginning in September — it clearly is feeling the same economic pinch as other sports. Even as it extended its streaming deal with Amazon Prime for Thursday night games for another three years on Wednesday, the league was making in-house financial adjustments. That means furloughs and adjustments to pension plans. The furlough program “for individuals in our workforce who are unable to substantially perform their duties from home and/or whose current workload has been significantly reduced,” Goodell wrote, will become effective May 8. Those being furloughed will be alerted in the next few days, and they will keep medical, dental and vision benefits, with the league paying the full cost of maintaining those benefits. “It is important to remember that a furlough is not a termination,” Goodell told league staffers. “We do not know how long a furlough will last, but we are hopeful that we will be able to return furloughed employees back to work within a few months.” Pension plan and other contributions will be reduced from 15% to 10% of eligible compensation and is a permanent change which takes effect on July 1. “The NFL is not immune to the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and it is our obligation to take responsible steps to protect the business and manage through this crisis as effectively as possible,” Goodell wrote. “These decisions were difficult and we know these measures will cause hardship for those impacted. I encourage everyone to continue to identify ways of operating more efficiently and reducing costs. If we do that, I believe that furloughs and compensation reductions can be limited, or in time even reversed. “I assure you that we will continue to monitor economic conditions, communicate with you promptly and openly — whether the news is good or bad — and have your interests in mind as decisions are made going forward.” The NFL plans to release its regular-season schedule around the second week in May, and currently is allowing virtual workouts coordinated See NFL | 9 Bebeto Matthews | AP file Former New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, right, and former Colorado Rockies outfielder Larry Walker will have to wait for their big moment at Cooperstown. The Hall of Fame announced Wednesday that it has canceled its July 26 induction because of the coronavirus outbreak. Jeter and Walker were to be inducted with catcher Ted Simmons and the late Marvin Miller, the pioneering players’ union head. Baseball HOF cancels induction ceremony By John Kekis Associated Press Derek Jeter, Larry Walker and the rest of this year’s Baseball Hall of Fame class will have to wait another year for their big moment at Cooperstown. The Hall of Fame announced Wednesday that it has canceled the July 26 induction ceremony because of the coronavirus pandemic. Instead, the class will be included at next year’s induction festivities — along with any additional new choices — on July 25, 2021. A record crowd of over 70,000 had been expected this summer in an outdoor field at the small town in upstate New York to honor Jeter, the former New York Yankees captain who came within one vote of unanimous election by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America in January. Jeter and Walker were to be inducted with catcher Ted Simmons and the late Marvin Miller, the pioneering players’ union head who negotiated free agency and transformed the sport. “Being inducted into the Hall of Fame will be an incredible honor, but the health and safety of everyone involved are paramount,” Jeter said in a statement released by the Hall. “I respect and support the decision to postpone this year’s enshrinement and am looking forward to joining current Hall of Famers, fans, staff and my family and friends in Cooperstown in 2021,” he said. This will be the first year without an induction ceremony since 1960. “It was a very difficult decision, but with so many unknowns facing the world, the board felt strongly that this was the right decision,” said Hall member Joe Morgan, vice chairman of the shrine’s board. Record attendance for an induction ceremony was set in 2007, exceeding 70,000 when Cal Ripken Jr. and the late Tony Gwynn were enshrined. Cooperstown is within easy driving distance of the New York metro area, and loads of Yankees fans had already made their plans to see Jeter on the Hall stage. The Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum closed at the end of the day on March 15 due to the virus outbreak. Jeter, now the CEO of the Miami Marlins, and Walker were elected by member of the BBWAA. Simmons and Miller were chosen in December by the Hall’s Modern Era Committee. “I fully understand and agree with the board’s decision,” Walker said in a statement from the Hall. “It is most important to do the right thing for everybody involved, and that means not putting any participants in jeopardy.” Simmons echoed that view. “I commend the board for making this decision under these difficult circumstances, particularly in New York, a state severely hit by the pandemic. This was the wisest and smartest thing to do, given the existing environment and the danger that this pandemic presents,” he said. Also to be honored during next year’s Hall induction weekend: 2020 Ford C. Frick Award winner Hawk Harrelson, 2020 J.G. Taylor Spink Award winner Nick Cafardo and the winner of the 2020 Buck O’Neil Lifetime Achievement Award, David Montgomery. Jeter, a key to five World Series titles, was on 396 of 397 ballots in voting announced Jan. 21. The only player with a higher percentage was former Yankees teammate Mariano Rivera, who became the first unanimous pick in 2019. Walker, making his 10th ballot appearance, got 304 votes — six over the threshold. Next year’s first-time eligible players have no odds-on favorites: Torii Hunter and Mark Buehrle are among the players who will be on the BBWAA ballot for the first time. Holdovers include Curt Schilling, who fell 20 votes short this year, and steroids-tainted stars Roger Clemens (56 shy) and Barry Bonds (57). All three will be on the ballot for the ninth time, one shy of the limit. If anyone new is elected, it would be the first ceremony since 1949 to combine multiple classes. The first four Hall classes were inducted jointly in 1939 on the day the Hall of Fame opened. The classes of 1946 and ’47 were inducted together, as were the classes of 1948 and ’49. Rogers Hornsby was elected in 1942, but there was no induction ceremony because of travel restrictions during World War II. There was no balloting in 1940, ’41 and ’43. No ceremony was held in 1950, ’58 and ’60 after no one was elected. Since Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Christy Mathewson, Babe Ruth and Honus Wagner became the original Hall of Fame class in 1936, the only previous years with no inductions were 1940, ’41, ’43, ’50, ’52, ’58 and ’60. �COMICS 8 Friday, May 1, 2020 BLONDIE Gallipolis Tribune By Dean Young and John Marshall BEETLE BAILEY By Mort, Greg and Brian Walker Today’s answer CRANKSHAFT By Tom Batiuk HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI AND LOIS By Chris Browne Written By Brian & Greg Walker; Drawn By Chance Browne THE BRILLIANT MIND OF EDISON LEE By John Hambrock BABY BLUES ZITS By Jerry Scott & Rick Kirkman By Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman PARDON MY PLANET By Vic Lee CONCEPTIS SUDOKU by Dave Green %\�'DYH�*UHHQ � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � By Hilary Price � � �'LIILFXOW\�/HYHO Today’s Solution THE FAMILY CIRCUS By Bil and Jeff Keane ���� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �����&RQFHSWLV�3X]]OHV��'LVW��E\�.LQJ�)HDWXUHV�6\QGLFDWH��,QF� � � � � � � � � � DENNIS THE MENACE THE LOCKHORNS By Bunny Hoest & John Reiner ���� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �'LIILFXOW\�/HYHO Hank Ketcham’s � � � �����&RQFHSWLV�3X]]OHV��'LVW��E\�.LQJ�)HDWXUHV�6\QGLFDWH��,QF� RHYMES WITH ORANGE � � � see what’s brewing on the job market.

(AP) — NFL teams didn’t know when they left the Senior Bowl in January that they wouldn’t get all that much more time with prospects before the draft. The in-person scrutiny at practices and in meetings is always a meaningful part of the evaluation process at the weeklong audition for NFL teams in Mobile, Alabama. Turns out it had perhaps an added significance this year — at least in providing that personal touch. After the game and the combine, the coronavirus pandemic forced many on-campus pro days and the pre-draft team visits to be called off. The Senior Bowl certainly gave some added insight to the Cincinnati Bengals and Detroit Lions, whose staffs coached the teams. “We had a chance to really home in and know these guys better than most,” Bengals defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo said. The Bengals drafted three players — linebackers Logan Wilson and Akeem Davis- Tournament. We have created a safe and challenging course for the runners and kept the spectator experience in mind as well.” The grandstand includes 1,100 flip-down seats, 2,000 bench-back seats and 3,400 bleacher seats. Scioto Downs, located just south of Columbus, hosted the OHSAA cross country state championships from 1985 through 2010 before the facility added a casino. National Trail Raceway in Hebron, 20 miles east of Columbus, hosted the state championships from 2011 through 2019. Tim Stried is the Director of Communications for the OHSAA. NFL From page 7 teams. It has an owners meeting scheduled for the Los Angeles area in late May that likely will become a video conference instead. Training camps wouldn’t open before the end of July. The first major event of the summer would be the Pro Football Hall of Fame game on Aug. 6 and inductions on Aug. 8. All of those, of course, must be considered tentative at this time.

The Packers didn’t let that deter them from drafting Love out of Utah State. “We did spend some time with him, and I felt very comfortable with our evaluation process,” general manager Brian Gutekunst said. “We would have loved to have some of those guys in our facility for an entire day and spend that kind of time with him. “Unfortunately nobody got to really do that with anyone this year.

The Lions picked up two Senior Bowl alums in guards Jonah Jackson and Logan Stenberg. They got the benefit of up-close exposure to players instead of the Zoom calls that teams had to rely on in the weeks leading up to last weekend’s draft. The game produced the same breakdown of draft picks as last year: 93 total picks and 40 in the first three rounds. That includes four first-rounders — quarterbacks Justin Herbert (No. 6, Los Angeles Chargers) and Jordan Love (No. 26, Green Bay Packers), along with defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw (No. 14, San Francisco) and wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (No. 25, San Francisco). Jim Nagy, the Senior Bowl’s executive director since June 2018, said he didn’t get feedback saying the weeklong experience proved more important to teams given the pandemic. But some NFL personnel peo- sonal time may have cost some of the more charismatic players from the Senior Bowl. He said UCLA running back Joshua Kelley would have impressed running backs coaches enough that the assistants “would have went back to the building and would have been pounding the table that that guy gets drafted by their teams.” Kelley was a fourth-round pick of the Los Angeles Chargers. Offensive lineman Ben Bartch from Division III St. John’s in Minnesota was also a fourth-rounder, going to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Again, Nagy felt a position coach would have been more enamored of him if Bartch had been able to visit in person. Bartch sustained a knee injury in practice at the Senior Bowl and couldn’t participate at the combine. “If more offensive line coaches would have been able to spend time with him, he might have gone in the third,” Nagy said. “He might have been bumped up a round.” AP SPORTS BRIEF XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN Best Deal New & Used Friday, May 1, 2020 9 (740) 992-2155 or fax to (740) 992-2157 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN Amy Carter Product Specialist �� ���� �������!�������������� �� ���� ��� ��!� ��� � � �� ����� ���� � � amycarter@markporterauto.com Public Bid Advertisement (Electronic Bidding) State of Ohio Standard Forms and Documents DOT-190016 Crown City Yard Department of Transportation Crown City, Gallia County, Ohio Bids Due: 1 :00 p.m. local time, May 21, 2020; through the State's electronic bidding system at https://bidexpress.com EDGE Participation Goal: 5.0% of contract Domestic steel use is required per ORC 153.011.
