Hurricane says ‘No’ to trout in city reservoir By Amanda Smythers amanda@theputnamstandard.com

Putnam County residents will have to fish for trout in another county as the state Department of Natural Resources will no longer stock the Hurricane reservoir at the request of the city of Hurricane. Brett Preston, assistant chief of the wildlife resources section of the West Virginia DNR, said City Manager Ben Newhouse contacted his office last year and canceled the normally scheduled March stocking. “My sense was that it was not necessarily shutting the door

completely but they needed time to evaluate their plans for the water supply,” Preston said. “[Requests to stop stocking] isn’t common, but it has happened before when [municipalities] have some concerns.” Newhouse said the request was made after city officials experienced problems with fishermen not following reservoir regulations. “What we’ve seen is people are trying to white water raft, kayak whatever they want,” Newhouse said. “Last year it got a little bit out of control with following regulations.” See Trout, Page 6

U.S. 35 completed by 2018 Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin announced that the West Virginia Division of Highways will advertise for Request of Qualifications (RFQ) for the design and construction of the remaining 14.6 miles of U.S. 35 in Putnam and Mason counties. “Our state’s highways are critical to our continued economic success, and I’m pleased we are moving forward with this project,” Tomblin said. “By completing U.S. Route 35, we are ensuring the safety of our

residents who travel these roads each and every day, and are making it easier for business and industry to operate and achieve success in the Mountain State.” Secretary of Transportation Paul Mattox said this project will make the completion of a national freight route through the state, connecting I-64 to the Chicago metropolitan area. “I appreciate Governor Tomblin’s leadership that will allow the

Redskins upset No. 1 Eagles By Trace Johnson For The Putnam Standard Hurricane used a dominant third quarter run to help blow out Point Pleasant, the Redskins’ second big victory of the week. Hurricane beat Point Pleasant 76-51 Saturday night, avoiding a letdown after a huge 52-50 upset of previously unbeaten No. 1 South Charleston on Jan. 22. J.T. Rogoszewski helped the Redskins’ win over the Eagles

with a basket with just more than a minute to play. South Charleston came into the contest as the last unbeaten team in class AAA. Following the loss to Hurricane, the Eagles were able to keep its No. 1 spot in the West Virginia Associated Press poll. Hurricane received 10 votes and sits at No. 11. In the game against Point Pleasant, with 7:14 remaining in the third quarter, the Big Blacks (3-8) cut the Redskins’

lead down to one at 33-32. Hurricane (8-5) followed with a 26-5 scoring run to close out the quarter and essentially put the game away. “To be honest with you, we didn’t play really well in the first half,” said Hurricane coach Lance Sutherland. “We kind of let them hang around. We didn’t play very well the first couple minutes (of the third quarter) and then when we started pressing See Boys, Page 10

Local food pantries serve local community families By Michael Circle michael@theputnamstandard.com

Local food pantries are helping the less fortunate of Putnam County during the cold winter months. The Five Loaves, Two Fish food pantry of Poca and the Christian Community Cupboard of Hurricane distribute food regularly throughout the month. During the holidays the food banks invited residents in to ensure they had a good meal for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. “It is so rewarding,” said Five Loaves Director Dreama Ward. “I

never cease to be amazed at the things we accomplish. God has blessed this food pantry. I have seen these shelves completely empty and would think in two weeks, we have to have another give away. By the end of those two weeks, the shelves are stocked full again by churches and schools that have donated.” Donations to Five Loaves come from several different programs such as local schools, other churches and individuals. “Every school gets food for us,” Ward said. “We went to George Washington Elementary to pick

up over 700 pieces that they had collected for us. You just marvel.” Five Loaves was originally at the Eleanor Presbyterian Church. However, due to a lack of space, the pantry was moved to Poca United Methodist Church in October 2007. The pantry serves food and hygiene products, such as shampoo See Pantries, Page 5 Dreama Ward, director of Five Loaves, Two Fish in Poca, assesses one of six freezers containing frozen meets to be given to the community.

Almost Havana brings cigars to Putnam Co. By Amanda Smythers amanda@theputnamstandard.com

Putnam County cigar lovers now have a place to call their own. Almost Havana, owned by Patrick Lucas, Jay Roudebush and Tanner James, officially opened its doors in Liberty Square. It promises both a calm and helpful retail environment along with a one-of-a-kind smoking lounge for relaxation. “It’s a new standard,” James said. “We’re setting a new standard for cigars in West Virginia and we think anybody who enjoys cigars or might enjoy cigars, this is the place for them to go.” Marty Chapman, president of the Putnam County Chamber of Commerce, said he was immediately impressed by the setup of the lounge. “My first impression was that I texted some friends of mine and told them that they needed to see this because this was amazing,” he said. “It is. There’s nowhere you can go to get this in Charleston or Huntington and we’re happy to have them here in Putnam County.” Roudebush and James said the choice for Putnam County was easy, as the booming business climate coupled with a diverse population created an ideal location.

“We did a statewide search for our location and we found that the Putnam County Chamber of Commerce, the Putnam County Commission and all the businesses around here, as well as the population, are really serious about new innovation and growth,” Roudebush said. “We kind of fell in love.” Additionally, the structure of the laws in the county made it easy for an indoor smoking business to exist. “In Putnam County, there are favorable laws, which is fantastic,” James said. “They allow indoor smoking which allows a place like this to exist. Still it’s the most booming area in the region. This is the nice middle ground. “Teays Valley is constantly growing and Putnam County is a great place to be. It’s a perfect demographic for us. There’s a lot of business and a lot of commuters – we’re catching everybody here. It’s the perfect safety net for us because we can just grab everybody who comes through.” Lucas, Roudebush and James designed the store so the retail area is completely sealed off from the lounge. James said this enables people who don’t smoke but would like to buy gifts to do so without being exposed to the cigar smoke in the back. Additionally, he said

Owners Jay Roudebush, Tanner James and Patrick Lucas (center) officially opened Little Havana, a cigar store and lounge, with a ribbon cutting on Jan. 17. They are joined by friends and the Putnam County Chamber of Commerce. this makes them “future proof,” as other counties have required there to be a partition between the retail area and the lounge. The lounge has large leather chairs and couches and drinks available for sale. The air filters are designed so they refresh the whole room every 46 seconds, Roudebush said. “What these guys have done is something totally different,” Chap-

man said. “It’s something new. To be able to smoke in here and watch the big screen TV while you’re doing it – that’s something that’s never been done before.” The store sells traditional and low batch cigars as well as pipes and pipe tobacco. Roudebush said they only sell high-quality pipes and they consider themselves serious tobacconists. Overall, James said he hopes

they can add a new standard to the business climate in Putnam County. “It’s a perfect place if you have a client or you’re pitching a sale to someone to bring them back here, spend a couple hours, smoke a cigar and talk to someone for a while,” he said. “It’s like the old golf course used to be. The golf course was always the place you used to seal the deal and I think cigar lounges are the same way.”

TeleHealth improves access to health care in W.Va. Mike Schumacher’s mom has a pacemaker which needs routine monitoring. At 91 years of age, she requires transportation to see the doctor. The physician spends a few minutes with her asking a few questions. He reviews her meds and sends her home. “Imagine the convenience and savings in cost, if she could receive the same level of care at home,” Schumacher told Putnam Rotarians. “We have many people today who conduct business globally from their homes across the internet superhighway.” Medical applications came to the Internet in the late 1990s and early 2000s. TeleMedicine was mostly curative, Schumacher said. Now with high-speed Internet access in West Virginia, TeleMedicine is offering preventive care and promoting good health in the home. Schumacher’s mom now has her pacemaker monitored across the Internet. “She can do diagnostic and consultative health care with her physician from her home,” he said. As a network engineer for Frontier Communications, Schumacher has been at the heart of the TeleHealth revolution. “You can do anything from anywhere with proper speeds and access to the Internet,” he said. “When Frontier took over from Verizon in 2010, approximately 62 percent of the homes in Verizon’s

footprint had internet access. We have raised that to 90 percent.” Schumacher pointed out that Frontier has added access to more than 192,000 homes. “Now over 540,000 homes in West Virginia have high-speed Internet access,” he said. “We have greatly increased the through-put on our network with fiber. We’ve completed 13 interconnected fiber rings in West Virginia. We have terabit capacity and beyond.” He said that there is one customer in West Virginia who has approval through an insurance provider to deliver care to 19,000 in their homes via TeleHealth. “We provide in the home a ‘cart’ with all the necessary connections [a patient has] in their primary health facility,” he said. “A techni-

cian sets up connections for equipment such as digital scales, blood work and blood pressure.” But other connections permit more complex applications such as scanning the retina for diabetic retinopathy. “If you have type 2 diabetes, there is an 80 percent probability that you will develop diabetic retinopathy within ten years,” Schumacher said. “But with proper treatment and monitoring, there is a 90 percent probability that you will not.” TeleHealth monitoring in remote areas, where face-to-face consultations are often less frequent, represents major cost-savings both to individuals and to insurers by treating diabetes properly and preventing blindness.

In one study on diabetes, chronic heart failure and COPD three of the largest treated diseases of West Virginians. TeleHealth monitoring for patients too bedridden or remote to receive regular care reduced mortality by 45 percent. Emergency room admissions were cut by 20 percent. And if a specialist is needed,

with proper equipment in a primary care facility a patient may be treated locally until time to go to a higher-level care center. But Schumacher’s mom is not dealing with any of these problems. She’s thankful she can have her pacemaker monitored in her own home through her son’s TeleHealth network.

Legislators pass first bill, discuss injured workers By Phil Kabler For The West Virginia Press Association Work on legislation to repeal the 2009 Alternative Energy Portfolio Act dominated the first full week of the 2015 regular session of the Legislature, with the Senate and House of Delegates each passing versions of the repeal bill. Debate on the bill was acrimonious, particularly in the House. Some Democrats called the repeal bill nothing more than a continuation of campaign attacks by the new Republican majority, who called the law “West Virginia’s cap-and-trade,” and used it to link state Democrats to President Barack Obama. “This is just political theater, this piece of legislation,” said Del. Nancy Guthrie, DKanawha. “If not, you would have had to apologize for all the negative mailers you sent out against us, calling us Obama lovers.” That comment drew calls of

“point of order” from around the chamber. Guthrie said the Legislature should be working to diversify the state’s economy, but instead, she said, “We are going to wear coal around our neck like a yoke that will drag all of us down.” Several delegates took offense at those comments, including Del. Gary Howell, R-Mineral, who held up a piece of coal, commenting, “I see this as a diamond necklace hanging around our necks.” Proponents of the bill say that repeal of mandates for utility companies to gradually increase usage of alternative energy sources for electricity generation, reaching 25 percent of production by 2025, will benefit the state’s coal industry and should keep electricity rates from soaring out-of-control. Leadership in both the House and Senate rebuffed efforts by the Democratic minority to demand jobs impact and economic impact studies to access the effect of the repeal, saying the studies were

not necessary. Democrats, however, suggested the studies would reveal that the repeal bill is “feel-good” legislation that will have little or no effect on jobs or the economy. “Let’s see whether or not this legislation performs as intended, creating more jobs in the coalfields, while controlling utility rates,” Senate Minority Leader Jeff Kessler, D-Marshall, said. Previously, at least one utility company lobbyist had testified that utility companies operating in the state can already meet the alternative energy thresholds under the act, which counts a variety of clean coal technologies as alternative energy sources. The House passed its bill (HB2001) 95-4, while a day earlier, the Senate passed a nearly identical bill (SB1), 33-0. This week, the Senate is expected to pass the House bill, making it the first bill this session to complete the legislative process and go to the governor.

Also during the week of Jan. 19-23 at the Legislature: * A bill to make it more difficult for workers injured on the job to sue their employers (HB2011) was the subject of an emotional public hearing, as relatives of coal miners killed or injured in mining accidents spoke out against the legislation. “I lost my father at the Upper Big Branch Mine in an accident caused by the negligence of the company he was working for,” Jeremy Ellswick testified. “Without the help we received from our lawsuit, our mother would not be able to survive the way she is.” Industry representatives said current standards for establishing “deliberate intent” on the part of employers are too broad, and said the Workers’ Compensation system is designed to assist injured workers. * State Treasurer John Perdue objected to Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin’s plan to “sweep” $15 million out of the Unclaimed Property ac-

count in his office, to use the funds to help close a funding gap in the 2015-16 state budget. Perdue said that would leave about $6 million in the account, which will make it difficult to make timely payments to rightful owners of unclaimed property, or to their survivors. Each year, the office pays $9 million to $10 million for unclaimed property claims, he said. Perdue also said raiding the fund sets a bad precedent, since the account is funded through the sale of unclaimed assets, including unclaimed stock and mutual funds, and from payments from insurance companies for unclaimed benefits. “This is the people’s money. This is not taxpayers’ money,” Perdue told the Senate Finance Committee. “Sooner or later, this little Rainy Day Fund, as I like to call it, won’t be there to be robbed any longer,” Perdue said, adding, “Robbing the people’s money is not the answer to these fiscal problems.”

West Virginia Legislative Update By Del. Jeff Eldridge 22nd District Greetings! I am quite pleased and honored to once again represent the wonderful citizens of the 22nd District. The Legislative Session has just recently begun and I am once again hard at work doing my best to represent your interests to the state of West Virginia as a whole. I have already sponsored legislation that will prove important to all. H.B. 2156 will allow schools to posthumously award diplomas to parents of graduating seniors who have regretfully passed. The loss of a child is always tragic, especially a child that is ready to enter the next stage of their life. The least the school can do is grant the parents recognition of all that their child had accomplished.

My work on the Committee of Agriculture is already underway. Commissioner of Agriculture Walt Helmick detailed a presentation on the Commission’s goals moving forward. His main topic featured the need for the diversity within West Virginia’s economy and that expanding agriculture would be a good option to explore. Helmick described how the hog industry would be a major option for increased expansion. Boone and Logan County are both platforms for the hog industry to take root and provide jobs and economic growth. Evaluation of Lincoln County mountaintop removal sites has also begun. The department will be examining all of the various sites throughout the county as potential areas for crops to be planted and new industry to be born. Putnam County is also being

evaluated as a potential area of crop aggregation, the process of farmers bringing products to sell and being distributed throughout the state. This will help turn Putnam into a center of economic development and growth for agriculture. I am working closely with the Department of Natural Resources and their new Director Robert Fala. The department is seeking to place increased effort into the elk restoration plan. Elk were once a proud native species of West Virginia that were unfortunately eliminated from the state in the late 1800’s. I wish to see this wonderful species return to West Virginia. Efforts are underway to encourage elk migration from Kentucky into Southern West Virginia, including Logan County. I hope to once again create a flourishing elk population. There is much more work to be done as the session continues. I will continue to keep you all updated of all of my activities throughout the session. I am happy to represent you and work towards a better West Virginia. Feel free to contact me at 304-340-3113 or at jeff.eldridge@ wvhouse.gov. Communication will allow me to better represent your interests.

By Del. Michel G. Moffatt 22nd District The excitement could be felt throughout the Capitol. Personally it reminded me of the buildup to our championship basketball game my senior year of High School but bigger. We were about to embark on a new day, a historic change for the State of West Virginia. It would be the first time that a change this big took place in the present Capitol building. We were all ready to get started. The session began with what was supposed to be simple rule changes. The long fought for Republican goal of adding a “Jobs Impact Statement” to certain bills to show how they would affect the job climate would be improved in a bi-partisan way to be an “Economic Impact Statement” to reflect a broader look on how bills would affect all West Virginians and the Economy of the State, and then the partisan politics began. The minority party would introduce additional proposals to have a Seniors Impact Statement, Families and Children Impact Statement and a Veterans Impact Statement, all

groups that would benefit from the larger Economic Impact Statement. Hence they were rejected but this way Republicans could be on record for voting against all of these groups. I hope that these tactics won’t be the norm for this session but only time will tell. The first ten days of the first session of the 83rd Legislature are now complete and things are beginning to move. We have passed our first bill out of the House, one that I was proud to be one of the 11 sponsors of, to repeal the Cap and Trade Bill that would restrict our ability to use coal in our Power Generation by up to 25%. It was passed on an overwhelming bipartisan basis, and since the Senate has passed a near identical bill, will be moving on to the Governor. We are working on a number of other pieces of Legislation to make West Virginia more attractive to employers, but we do not know it all. If there are issues that residents would like to see us address please contact us. I can be reached at the Capitol Room 206E at 304-340-3152, or Michel. Moffatt@WVHouse.gov.

Swann files grievance with state Board of Education By Zach Cumberland zach@theputnamstandard.com

The Christian Community Cupboard gives hundreds of cans of vegetables and other staples to needy residents in the community.

Pantries From Page 1 and toothpaste, or all ages. They even serve a small portion of “junk” food donated by Big Lots in Teays Valley, Ward said. Roughly 180 families a month benefit from the Five Loaves, Two Fish pantry. For Thanksgiving, they offered whole turkeys and all of the necessary ingredients for a full family dinner. Volunteers met the day before the giveaway to pack bags and set up for the big day. “I think a lot of our children, the only hot food they have is school lunch,” she said. “We try to give enough food so that these kids can have something to eat for supper. We try to give out a good, balanced amount of food.” Five Loaves opens its doors to the less fortunate on the second and fourth Saturdays of each month and gives out larger bags for Thanksgiving and Christmas that include a turkey for each household. Hurricane’s Christian Community Cupboard operates in similar fashion, getting donations from fellow congregations and schools. They also receive food from the Huntington Food Bank. “We get a lot of donations,” said Eddie Ellison, a board member for the Forrest Burdette Memorial United Methodist Church. “There are a lot of people around here that will come with a truck load to donate. They give all year round, money and food. “No one affiliated with the cupboard gets a salary. Four of us have trucks and we don’t turn in mileage. It’s all volunteer.” Ellison said 13 different churches in the Hurricane and Teays Val-

ley area supply aid and volunteers for the cupboard. Stan Summerfield, director, said the churches work together for the good of the people, substituting religious difference for the helping hand. “What really impresses me is the number of churches that work together,” Summerfield said. “They work very well with each other. They may have their differences or whatever, but they can work together to get the job done and feed people.” The cupboard opens its doors every Tuesday and Friday at 9:30 a.m. Anyone who is in line at noon will be served, Ellison said. “If the line is long enough to keep us here until 1 p.m., we will be there but they have to have been in the line by 12 p.m.,” he said. Members of the cooperating churches volunteer their time on the month their congregation is scheduled. They bring in donations and help hand out food to the residents as they come in. Volunteers also work with members of other churches, a cause for alarm with some, but Ellison said the different organizations have one goal in mind: serving the needy. “It takes about six to work this comfortably,” he said. “If someone gets sick, we forget about church [differences] and we get someone in. We don’t care who it is as long as we get our job done.” The cupboard is located on Virginia Avenue in Hurricane behind Forrest Burdette but building access and parking are on the alley side of the building.

Winfield school bus driver Elizabeth Swann filed a grievance with the West Virginia Board of Education stating that she deserves to keep her job. Swann, who was hired as a halfday bus driver in October, was represented by Ben Barkey at the Jan. 20 school board meeting. Barkey is a member advocacy specialist for the West Virginia Education Association. He said Swann began competing for service positions against others who were just as qualified. Despite Barkey’s presence in front of board members, Swann’s employment was revoked. Superintendent Chuck Hatfield said there will be a hearing with the state board and with a member of his staff to determine Swann’s future employment, which has yet to be scheduled. Swann and other employees had equal qualifications, so they were subject to a random drawing of names to see who would get the job in question. Although, Swann’s name wasn’t drawn first in September it was drawn in October. She was hired after the October drawing, but then lost her job when a prospective employee who placed second in the September drawing, successfully argued for her position, Barkey said. “The Putnam County Board didn’t notify Elizabeth Swann that the grievance had been filed

and that she could lose a property right as a result of this grievance or that she could lose her job,” Barkey said. “They granted the other persons grievance without giving Elizabeth Swann and myself an opportunity to come in and argue our side of it, so I think they were negligent there. “I think they had a duty to notify her that she may lose this property right and give her the opportunity to intervene in the grievance and to be a named intervener. Then they could have settled the grievance and if they did grant it, we would’ve had the opportunity to appeal.” Hatfield said he didn’t know why Barkey didn’t directly file the grievance with the Putnam County Board of Education. “I thought the comments were a little confusing because the grievance was actually filed at the state level, bypassing this board,” Hatfield said. Barkey said there seems to be some dispute about what the correct procedure should be and he thinks the correct one was followed the first time. School Board President Butch Legg said it could take up to a year to resolve Swann’s

grievance. Also at the meeting, board members said Putnam County teachers are preparing to switch standardized state tests for the 2015-2016 school year. In order to implement West Virginia’s Next Generation and Common Core standards, there will be a move from the West Virginia Educational Standards Test, to the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium. Assistant Superintendent Cindy Daniel said the Smarter Balanced Tests will be given online to third through 11th graders. The board also approved Buffalo’s Atkins & Ogle Law Office, as well as Eleanor’s A Time or Two antique store for the work based experience program. Every Putnam County high school student has to work a set number of hours at an area business in order to graduate. The next board meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 2 at the board of education office in Winfield.

Charleston Catholic defeats the Lady Bison By Michael Circle michael@theputnamstandard.com

Buffalo fell to Single A rival Charleston Catholic 68-20 but senior Olivia Dunn gave her teammates a peptalk, knowing a win is coming soon. “[Charleston Catholic is] kind of our rivals, they kick us out of sectionals every year so it’s kind of personal,” she said. “I’m just trying to tell them I believe in us. I think that’s the main thing especially when you keep losing. I’ve been there too and you start losing faith and start slacking off. I keep trying to drill into their heads that we’re a lot better than what we play. We’ve got a win coming.” The Jan. 21 contest was the first game the Lady Bison had played in more than 15 days due to scheduling conflicts and injury. “It was our first game back in a while,” said Buffalo coach Jamie Ball. “[Charleston Catholic] out hustled us. We just weren’t ready for their press. We haven’t played anybody with a serious press. “Their record doesn’t show it but Catholic probably played the toughest schedule in the state of West Virginia from anybody, A,

AA, AAA. They’re a really good team. “They’ve beat Greenbrier East who is number seven in AAA. They can beat a lot of teams this year. “Where we are in our rebuilding, we just can’t compete with that this year.” The Irish came out of the gate swinging and knocked down its first shot after 15 seconds. Charleston Catholic scored 20 unanswered points before Buffalo got on the board on a shot by junior Michaela Lewis. Lewis brought down the most rebounds for the Lady Bison, seven defensive and three offensive. Lewis also had a steal off of Charleston Catholic’s Allie Persily twice and blocked a shot, resulting in a Buffalo possession. “We didn’t quit,” Ball said. “We didn’t give up and we played hard throughout. We got some minutes. Most importantly, we did not give up.” Buffalo’s scoring improved in the second half when Dunn hit two 3’s, Lewis hit a basket and Courtney Whittington knocked down a three of her own. The Lady Bison also picked up their rebounding in the second half, more than dou-

bling what the first half. When the final whistle blew, Buffalo had lost 68-20 but Dunn said she knew the team’s first win was on the horizon. “We definitely have a win coming,” she said. “We play Man again. We play Van again, Montcalm.

Potentially, we could win. “We’ve lost faith and I want to get it back. We’re a lot better than we show and sometimes we play up to our competition and sometimes we don’t play up to our own level. I am trying to keep them involved.” The Lady Bison believe they

can add to the win total. Buffalo lost to Montcalm by three points, a deficit team members said they look to overcome on Feb. 2. The team also only lost to Van by six in December, a differential Dunn said she thought could be overcome at the rematch on Feb. 18.

they can drown in the reservoir,” he said. “This is the tax dollars we have to watch. We try to keep it low. We’re just trying to mitigate our liability. We’re not trying to limit people in recreation. We still allow fishing down there but we can only do so much at this point in time.” The city of Hurricane has not discontinued catfish stocking which Preston said will take place in late summer. Newhouse said catfish are easily caught from the sides of the reservoir and does not lend itself to rule breaking. For residents seeking trout fishing, Barboursville Lake in Cabell County and Ridenour Lake in Kanawha County have been stocked for spring. Preston said trout fishing is popular around the state, but there are few accessible waterways from which to enjoy it. The state DNR does a “put and take” where they

stock waterways with sizeable trout that make good meals for local fishermen. “It’s very popular,” Preston said. “We have stopped stocking certain impoundments and a variety of streams for a lot of reasons. But people are anxious and want to fish in an impoundment like Hurricane.” Marshall Ginn, a Hurricane City Councilman, said he had never been informed that the reservoir would no longer be stocked. Ginn was surprised at the city’s decision as trout fishing at the Hurricane reservoir has gone on for years. “Someone I think would have a good reason to stop it because it’s always been stocked before and a lot of people utilize it,” he said. Likewise, councilwoman Gerry Spears said she was not informed of the decision and said they have not discussed problems with fishing at the reservoir at any time in her

three years on the council. “I think it needs to be looked into,” she said. “This is news to me. I haven’t been aware of any problems or concerns.” The issue came to the forefront after Krystal Rectenwald asked Mayor Scott Edwards on his Facebook if there was any truth to rumors about the trout not being stocked. Edwards replied, “Yes, this happened last year due to the city trying to decrease our potential liabilities.” This prompted a stream of almost 30 comments questioning the city’s decision, none of which expressed former knowledge of the stocking cancellation. “Over 16 years I did not take the opportunity to fish at the reservoir but I sure watched a lot of people

enjoying the experience,” said Facebook user Dan Hogan. “I’m sorry to hear trout stocking causes a liability.” “This is a real shame,” said Facebook user Pamela Ruby. “There were so many families with little kids that went there and enjoyed family fishing. I wish this decision was overturned. You just took away from the families of the area.” Other complaints included Hurricane’s lack of recreation, which Newhouse said the city is actively trying to solve. Newhouse and other city officials met with Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin last week to discuss more state funding for recreational equipment, The city is constantly applying for grants. Unfortunately, he said, most require a sizeable city match.

Buffalo senior Olivia Dunn takes a shot from close range while Michaela Lewis (35) and Courtney Hively position themselves for an offensive rebound chance.

Trout From Page 1 Preston said trout fishing can only happen in cold temperatures, as trout can’t survive in waters above 70 degrees. According to Newhouse, fishing in the winter months encourages more people to ignore regulations such as walking on the ice in the reservoir. “People who are trout fishing are trying to cut a hole in the ice to trout fish,” Newhouse said. “We don’t want people to drown and fall through the ice. We just don’t want anybody to get hurt.” Newhouse said that Hurricane spends approximately $200,000 per year on liability insurance, most of which goes toward the multi-million dollar sewer and water plant in city limits. He said disallowing the stocking of trout in the reservoir helps the city as its insurance is lower. “I don’t think people will break their neck on a jungle gym but

Winfield comeback falls short against Huntington By Zach Cumberland zach@theputnamstandard.com A common theme permeating throughout the locker room this season at Winfield has been the inability to put together a full fourquarter performance. The drama played out once more as the Generals fell 74-66 to Huntington. “We have to play four quarters to win games at the triple A level,” said Winfield coach Bryan England. “We’ve played two quarters against a lot of teams and we’ve been close, but not close enough.” The Generals (4-9), were down 43-24 at halftime to the Highlanders (10-2), but put together a strong third quarter in order to get back in contention. Winfield held Huntington scoreless for the first five minutes after the break and managed to trim the lead to 10 by the end of the quarter. Senior Bear Bellomy continued his strong play by finishing with 29 points and eight rebounds. Bellomy’s 12 third quarter points brought the Generals back to within 51-41. “We need to trust that we can beat teams like Huntington,” Bellomy said, offering up a solution to try and halt what is now a six game slide. “We’re capable of it. We saw some of it in the second half. I think we’ll get it together by the end of the season, probably even before that.” Winfield had its hands full trying to contain Huntington junior guard Tavian Dunn-Martin, who is lightning quick and possesses a well-rounded game. Dunn-Martin scored a game high 33 points to help lead the Highlanders and also scored his 900th point during the contest. He’s now averaging 29.3 PPG over the past three games. “We were trying to take him

completely away,” England said. “We were trying to face guard him and we just didn’t do a good enough job of not letting him get the ball.” Winfield senior Alex Osburn was instrumental in keeping the Generals close in the first half with nine points. Osburn scored the Generals first six points and finished with 14 on the night to go along with seven rebounds. Senior guard Heath Diehl got things going at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Diehl knocked down one of two free throws and then converted on a reverse layup to cut the lead to single digits at 53-44. Diehl finished with seven points on the night. “I think our main problems have come when we quit playing defense,” Diehl said. “Then the other team gets on a run and we feel like we kind of lay down for a little bit. When we start playing hard defensively and we start getting stops and rebounds on offense, everyone gets more excited and wants to score and get to the basket more.” After Diehl’s reverse layup, Bellomy went on his 12 point scoring streak, which included an old fashioned three point play as well as one from behind the arc. Bellomy’s defensive play is what gets him going on the offensive end, England said. “I think when Bear is engaged on the defensive end he plays better offensively,” he said. “In the second half he played good defense and that got him going offensively. The other thing is when other people get going. When other people get going, Bear gets going because they can’t focus on just one guy. We have to get everybody else involved.” Sophomore Tate Hancock had a strong showing with nine points and seven rebounds. Winfield

Tate Hancock (40) contests the shot of Anthony Meadows as teammates Peyton Moore (24), Heath Diehl (14) and Bear Bellomy (30) look on. sliced the Huntington lead down to as many as six points on a couple occasions late in the fourth, but the Generals couldn’t draw any closer. Coming into the game, England said he was expecting to wipe the slate clean and have a fresh start to the season. “We have to be able to mentally stay fresh when we’ve lost six games in a row,” he said. “We have to start fresh and break things down into different increments. You learn what you can do to try and get better, but you don’t dwell on the past, if you do…you’re dead. We know what we can do. We just have to put four quarters together.” The Generals will play host to cross town rival Hurricane at 7:30 p.m. on Jan. 30 followed by a rematch with the Nitro Wildcats on Peyton Moore tosses a pass cross court as the Generals attempt to Tuesday, Feb. 3. make a comeback.

Putnam has $146,000 in unclaimed property State Treasurer John Perdue’s office returned $1.2 million in unclaimed property to Kanawha County residents, the largest total in both the state and the Central West Virginia region. Kanawha is also the state’s most populous county with 191,000 residents. Unclaimed property is any asset from which an individual has been separated, such as forgotten utility deposits or abandoned safe deposit box contents. By law, the holder of the property – such as a bank -- is obligated to report the asset. “Every day we attempt to find the rightful owners of unclaimed property and verify identity,” Perdue said. “We take that mission very seriously, whether it’s trying to find rightful owners in Wirt County or Kanawha.” Totals for the 12-county Central West Virginia region:

* Kanawha -- $1.2 million * Cabell -- $178,000 * Putnam -- $146,000 * Upshur -- $47,000 * Braxton -- $43,000 * Jackson -- $39,000 * Calhoun -- $33,000 * Lewis -- $20,000 * Roane -- $18,000 * Gilmer -- $18,000 * Mason -- $15,000 In fiscal 2014, Treasurer Perdue’s office returned approximately $7 million in unclaimed property -- some $5 million to state residents and the rest to those who had lost property in West Virginia but moved to another state. In that case, the state of last address is the one which issues the unclaimed property check. The Treasurer’s Office has returned $47 million to owners during the last five years.

Seeking participants for the Putnam County 4-H Special Lambs The Putnam County 4-H Special Lambs project seeks participants for 2015. The registration deadline is Friday, Feb. 20. Interested participates should call the Putnam County 4-H Office at 304-586-0217. The Special Lamb Project pairs youth with disabilities with a 4-H’er experienced in raising

livestock. Together, this pair shares the duty of feeding and caring for a lamb, and showing it and selling it at the Putnam County Fair in July. Each member of the team receives part of the proceeds from the sale of the lamb. This program is unique in that it offers realistic experiences to youth with disabilities, with the

goal of developing their physical and mental potentials. For the nondisabled 4-H member, this program will establish a greater understanding of persons with disabilities and establish a friendship bond that will last for a lifetime. Determination of participation in the program will be based on age, physical or mental limitations

and will be dependent on the ability to perform certain tasks and handle situations such as showing lambs and taking part in the livestock auction. Minimum and maximum ages will follow the guidelines for 4-H. Both participants are expected to commit to basic care of the lamb, and participants with special needs are expected to work with

WVDNR seeks wildlife paintings for 2016 calendar The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources is requesting original wildlife art for the 2016 edition of the award-winning West Virginia Wildlife Calendar, according to DNR Wildlife Resources Section Chief Curtis I. Taylor. The deadline for submitting artwork is Feb. 20. Paintings may depict popular game and fish species or feature the state’s other animals such as snakes, frogs, turtles, salamanders, bats, songbirds, small mammals

and nongame fish. “This calendar offers a wonderful opportunity for artists to feature their work,” said Taylor. “Besides distribution in West Virginia, our calendars are enjoyed by people all over the United States.” An electronic image of each entry capable of being sized at 14½ inches wide by 11½ inches high at 300 dpi is preferred, but a lower resolution image or 35-mm color slide will be accepted. Artists may send in multiple entries.

Artists are reminded that the calendar format is horizontal, with measurements of 14 inches wide by 11 inches high, and should keep this ratio in mind when creating paintings. Paintings not chosen in previous years may be resubmitted. “Just because the artwork is not selected one year doesn’t mean it will not be selected in the future,” said Taylor. “Often, there are several submissions of a particular species and only one can be used in a given

year.” All artists, especially those from West Virginia, are encouraged to submit their work. A $100 prize is awarded for each painting chosen, with $500 going to the artist whose artwork is picked for the cover.

Lady Redskins fall to No. 2 Eagles in heated battle Photo by One-Eyed Jack’s Photography Hurricane’s Mary Rogoszewski had 14 points and nine rebounds in the game.

Hurricane senior Abby Watson eyes the basket and puts it in for three points. Watson had four 3-pointers in the second half.

Hurricane Maddy Weeks (22) puts the ball up for two while Hannah Thompson (23) comes in the help grab a rebound.

Boys From Page 1 we picked it up and it kind of wore them out.” The Redskins started the game fast and had a 7-0 lead less than one minute into the contest. The rest of the first quarter saw much more back and forth action. Hurricane took a 20-12 lead after 12 minutes. The second quarter saw both teams trade shots with the other and the Redskins couldn’t quite put the Big Blacks away. Point Pleasant cut Hurricane’s lead down to just two at 29-27 with just 1:40 remaining in the quarter. The Redskins closed out the half nicely, however, taking a 3327 lead into the locker rooms at halftime. The third quarter did not begin the way Hurricane had hoped. The Big Blacks quickly cut the Redskins’ lead down to one at 33-32 with 7:14 remaining in the quarter. Hurricane then kicked it into a high gear and closed out the quarter on a 26-5 scoring run, much with the help of their full court pressure defense. “I was hoping that’s what we would do at the beginning of the game, and we came close a couple of times, and then we kind of laid back, but that was the key,” Sutherland said. “The key was being able to trap and make them throw the ball all over the place.” Hurricane senior Trey Dawson

said the offense and defense feed off of each other. “When we play good defense like that and force a lot of turnovers, that just carries into our offense and our fast break and really gets the ball moving,” he said. The Redskins used that run to surge in front of the Big Blacks 59-37 after the third quarter of play. Hurricane played with a comfortable lead throughout the whole fourth quarter and Point Pleasant was never able to get back into the game. Dawson led the Redskins with 22 points, eight assists and five steals, senior Brandon Ford chipped in with 17 points, four rebounds and two assists, Rogoszewski added nine points, eight rebounds, and three assists, and senior Noah Fenerty added six points and six rebounds to all help lead the Redskins. The Big Blacks were led in the scoring department by sophomore Douglas Workman, who finished the game with 12 points. Following the upset victory over South Charleston, some felt that this game could be a letdown situation for Hurricane. “My biggest fear was that we were going to come out and lay an egg,” Sutherland said. Dawson added, “It’s tough to come off a win like that, playing

a great team like that, and Point Pleasant’s not a bad team either. If you sleep on them, they’re going to beat you and we had to come out with a lot of intensity. We didn’t do that in the first half and that’s why we came out in the second half and did it.” The Redskins look to carry this momentum over throughout the rest of the season and continue to get better. “Our zone defense still isn’t really good and we’re leaving the post wide open way too much so we need to work on that,” Sutherland said. “We need to get on our rotations when we trap and build from there because next week we’ve got Spring Valley on Wednesday and Winfield on Friday so it doesn’t get any easier.” Dawson said the team needs to keep its focus. “We’ve still got another tough week … and we’ve just got to work every day in practice and get better until postseason comes along,” he said.

Roberson hits 1,000, Lady Generals fall By Zach Cumberland zach@theputnamstandard.com Winfield’s Haylea Roberson is now a member of the exclusive 1,000 point club at Winfield High School. Roberson scored 29 points in the Lady Generals 48-38 win over Woodrow Wilson, including the 1,000th of her career. Roberson said she knew it would take 11 points coming into the contest against the Flying Eagles, so she decided to take matters into her own hands and scored 10 first quarter points, which ultimately led to number 1,000 at the free throw line. “I finally got fouled,” Roberson said. “I missed my first foul shot, but I made my second one and that was my 1,000th point. It was great.” Number 1,000 was something Roberson said she had been looking forward to for quite some time ever since her varsity career began in ninth grade. “It was one of my main goals to achieve and it felt amazing to finally get it,” she said. Roberson also scored what may be a school record for points in a single game by a Winfield girl when she dropped 45 in the Lady Generals’ victory at Riverside on Jan. 9. Roberson now joins six other Winfield players in the 1,000 point club: Sissy Isaacs, Stephanie Murnahan, Karah Cloxton, Natalie Kline, Katie Cloxton and Brittany Lee. Winfield coach Chuck Slater said Roberson is a great leader on the floor and keeps herself in great condition year round. She spends a lot of time at the YMCA all through the summer and the fall in preparation for basketball season. “She keeps herself in good condition and shape to be able to play the way she does,” Slater said.
