Dublin Counseling Center
Nonprofit braces for cuts, greater needs The center is expecting a reduction in Medicaid funding, but the amount remains unknown. The new two-year state budget went into effect July 1. “What they have done is, they are instituting cost-containment measures, and so they’re limiting the number of services clients can receive both annually and on a daily basis,” Rinaldi said. “Some of our patients with the highest needs are restricted with the num-

The Dublin Counseling Center is bracing for cuts. The local nonprofit organization that offers mental-health, alcohol and drug outpatient services could see reductions in state funding. “The main source of funding from the state that’s going to be impacted is Medicaid,” executive
director Julie Erwin-Rinaldi said. The Dublin Counseling Center’s annual budget is slightly more than $1.2 million annually, Rinaldi said, adding that about 40 percent comes from Medicaid payments.

not have,” he said. “Not a lot of people know how to pitch a business in under two minutes.” David Feng, who will be an eighthgrader at Sells Middle School in the fall, said the networking event taught him to “take an initiative. “You have to learn to talk to people and communicate,” he said.
Jerome High School soon will host a new emergency warning facility. Dublin school board members last week approved an agreement with Dublin that will place a solar-powered emergency siren on about nine square feet of land at Jerome High School. “It’s similar to what we have at Coffman (High School),” said Jim Davis, director of buildings and grounds. A site at Jerome High School was chosen, Davis said, to serve the school and some homes in the area. The closest siren couldn’t be heard in the school or some of the nearby homes, he said. The city will install and maintain the siren, the agreement said, and the primary term of the agreement is 10 years, with an option to extend the contract for 40 more years. The siren is proposed to be placed near the football stadium. The siren will alert nearby people with a tone and inform them through voice. In other school matters, the board approved a contract for school resource officers at the high and middle schools. Dublin City Schools splits the cost of having a police officer posted at middle and high schools with the city. “It’s a great partnership,” Superintendent David Axner said, noting that the officers provide both safety and education. “We’re very fortunate.” The cost of three resource officers at each high school is $308,754, including benefits. Two officers at two of Dublin’s middle schools is $205,836 with benefits. The district will pay $154,377 for high school resource officers and $102,918 for middle school officers. A rental agreement with Ohio State University was also approved to hold graduation at the Schottenstein Center for 2013 to 2015. The district will pay $28,763 to hold its three graduation ceremonies there on June 8, 2013,

Camp returns to teach business skills By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Jelly meant more than lunch for 20 middle-schoolers participating in Dublin’s entrepreneur camp. The campers used the lunchtime event at the Dublin Entrepreneurial Center last week to practice networking and to pitch their new “companies” to other entrepreneurs.
The camp, sponsored by the DEC and Dublin Parks and Recreation Department, is in its second year and has 20 middle school participants. Seven returned from the inaugural year. “We have a lot more businesses involved this year,” camp supervisor Bryan Arnold said. “We kept a lot of the same stuff, like this (networking event).” The second year brought a few
changes, though. This year, students will build their own websites for the products they create in groups of four, in addition to marketing and creating a business plan. Networking might not seem like the most useful skill for a middle school student to master, Arnold said, but it gets them out of their comfort zone. “It’s a skill that a lot of people may
Mezzo Restorante and Bar opens in BriHi Square By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Historic Dublin’s newest restaurant officially opened last week, but general manager Michael Holland said several patrons had been in before then. Mezzo Restorante and Bar opened at 12 W. Bridge St., bringing traditional Italian fare with some local twists to BriHi Square. A private-public partnership between Dublin and Stonehenge Co. brought BriHi Square to the historic district, Holland said, and the opening of the two-story Mezzo has been highly anticipated.
“We were doing dozens of tours in the evening after training,” he said. “We would do dinner for 130 after training.” Another Mezzo sits at the Creekside development in Gahanna, but the Dublin location is different, Holland said. “The Gahanna (restaurant) is a little bit smaller. It’s on one floor and seats 175. Here we’re upwards of 230,” he said. “We share probably 60 percent of the menu or a little bit more, but we’ve added items for both the Dublin area and local products, Ohio-grown products.” The BriHi Square site was too
good to pass up, he said. “This is a very nice square that they built here, and traffic is second to none,” Holland said. “So much is offered here, but so much isn’t here, so we can offer a more family-friendly place. … You can see and be seen on the square (on the patio).” The two-story restaurant has a bar and “casual” atmosphere downstairs, with a more formal dining experience upstairs, Holland said. The restaurant also features patio seating for 60 and a private room By Eric George/ThisWeek that could seat 40 for dinner. Even before opening, Holland Executive chef Ben Geltzer, front, and general manager Michael Holland are running Mezzo See MEZZO, page A3 Restorante and Bar, 12 W. Bridge St., in BriHi Square.

DCC braces for cuts, increase in need Continued from page A1 counseling. “Our goal was to reduce rehospitalization by 50 percent, but we reduced it by 85 to 90 percent,” she said. “The most interesting thing was, the young people were grateful to find work and get into school or go back.” The new state budget cuts aren’t the first reduction the Dublin Counseling Center has faced, though. “Two years ago, when we sustained a pretty large cut (of) $221,000 from the state budget, we suspended all raises for staff, and that’s still in place, and we realigned the benefit packages,” Rinaldi said. “What we tried to do is avoid cutting service, and most nonprofit mental-health providers reduced their own budget so they can serve people. We very strategically did that and also eliminated some administrative positions.” The cuts over the past two years were done while the Dublin Counseling Center saw an increase in need. In 2009, Rinaldi said, the counseling center served 2,509 people. In 2010, that figure increased by 597 (24 percent) to 3,106. “We did everything we could to open access because we knew people were going to need it,” she said. “Our staff really took the hit — and willingly. We wanted to be able to keep serving people. It was amazing.” Finding alternative sources of funding State funding isn’t the only change the Dublin Counseling Center has seen. The organization does fundraising, Rinaldi said, and staff members have seen an increase. “We have an annual fundraising letter-writing campaign,” she said. “This year, we raised more money than we ever have in the last 10 years,” she said. “But what’s interesting is, some of the people who have historically provided funds were unable to because of financial situations. … We have more new donors than usual. It’s interesting to see how people respond in a time of need. It’s not what you would have expected. We have more new donors but also had people telling us,

‘No, I can’t.’” The counseling center also receives funding from the city of Dublin and Washington Township. “Dublin and the Washington Township trustees have been extremely supportive of us in the past years, especially in the past year because we have received so many reductions,” Rinaldi said. “The state expected the local community to make up for some of the losses at the state level. We’re blessed to have these local entities. I’m humbled by how supportive they are.” Washington Township trustee
Denise Franz King said the counseling center gets funding through grants from the township. “Our support is general in that it can benefit any member of the community by underwriting their operations, but we also target specific grants for specific topics,” she said. “In the most recent grant, we’re supporting an effort to make services more available to military families and returning military members. There’s real need there, because so many members of the military here are from the National Guard, their families lack the support network that a family would have if it were as-
sociated with a base. They’re more isolated in the community and may or may not have a supportive environment.” City, township support essential Dublin city manager Marsha Grigsby said the city also increased its funding to the Dublin Counseling Center this year for the program to aid military members and their families. The city normally gives $50,000 annually to the counseling center but gave $125,000 this year, she said. “I think for many, many years
the city has felt that the counseling center provides a valuable service to the community,” Grigsby said. The organization not only provides mental-health and drug and alcohol service to residents, but it also could be used by Dublin police officers through referrals for victims of crimes or accidents, or for the officers themselves, she said. “Our support funding from the township has targeted mentalhealth service in response to tragedy,” Franz King said. “If our firefighters and emergency personnel respond to a particularly
horrific traffic incident, those counseling services are available for them, too.” Mostly, Franz King said, throwing support behind the counseling center is about serving residents. “It stems from a tradition since townships were created that townships supported social services,” she said. “That has largely been transported to a county level, but that support still remains. I had to call on the counseling center, and I understand how critical it is to have those services available for your family when you need them.”

NOT GETTING HOME ENOUGH?
Group to return from hiatus By JENNIFER NOBLIT
which is a substantial increase to the five we had before.” Foster said the new board members would help the group with a task that has been lacking: fundraising. “We need to have the community actively involved in what we’re doing,” he said. “The reason for bringing on some board members is so we can effectively fundraise.” Fundraising has been lackluster in the past, Foster said. “For many years, we had just a few people doing all the work, and they never had time to be doing the things we should be, like fundraising,” he said. “We were more in the putting-out-fires mode and keeping productions going and keeping the lights on, so we never got around to fundraising.” With the group’s previous home in Dublin Village Center shuttered, Emerald City Players’ leadership will have more time to focus on fundraising, Foster said. The group also is trying to reconnect with fans and patrons with its upcoming show, “You’ve Got Hate Mail.” The show that runs every Saturday from July 30 to Aug. 27 is a “comedy of errors” that follows an extramarital affair that encounters problems, thanks to

The Emerald City Players will make a comeback July 30. The local community theater group decided last fall to take a hiatus, shutter its location in the Dublin Village Center and take time to recruit more volunteers and board members. “We really enjoy what we do,” board president Rick Foster said in October. “We’ve brought some excellent community theater to Dublin. The quality of shows is very high, and that’s shown by the number of awards we’ve won over the years at regional and state competitions. We need to continue to do that, but some of us are just getting burned out. “With a small number of us doing the work, it’s not as much fun as it used to be,” he said. “It gets to be more of a burden than it is fun. We want people to have fun doing this.” Foster said recruiting has gone well during the seven-month hiatus. “We had planned on staying on hiatus a little longer, but people got itchy and decided they wanted to do something,” he said. “Right now, we’re in the thick of things. We now have 12 members on the board of directors,
email. The play, told through emails, stars Jesse Lewis, Jody Hepp, Kathy Sturm, Randy Benge and Tina Gleason. The play is small and practiced at cast members’ homes, Foster said. The show will be staged at Sequoia Pro Bowl, 5501 Sandalwood Blvd., in north Columbus. “We’re really looking for a permanent home, but in the meantime, we’ll probably be performing in multiple locations,” Foster said. “We would like to stay in the Dublin area, but that’s not a requirement.” The 8 p.m. Saturday performances will be held in the bar area, and audience members may eat and drink before, during and after performances. A special opening-night celebration will be held July 30. Tickets for $25 include two drinks, appetizers, dessert and the show. “We’re hoping that we can get the audience we’ve had in the past to come back to us,” Foster said. “It’s essential for an organization like us to have a base of patrons who not only come to a show but also get involved in other activities and fundraising. Opening night is to get reacquainted with the Emerald City Players, and we’re hoping some patrons of the past will come back and join us for a celebration.”
Doors open at 7 p.m. for each performance, and sign-language interpreters will be on hand at the Aug. 20 and 27 performances. Tickets for performances excluding opening night are $10. For more information or to reserve tickets, call (614) 210-1111 or look online at emeraldcityplayers.com.
ing forward to the “shark tank” activity that places each group in front of judges. “You present your product or services and get advice,” she said, noting that the top group will receive a prize. “I think we’ll do very well, so it’ll probably be one of my favorite parts.” Grizzell Middle School seventh-grader Allison Cheng said her mother had signed her up for the camp, but the experience has been interesting and she has made new friends. She also helped think up the Ice Blazer, a shovel with a heating coil to melt snow and ice as it’s being shoveled. “In the future, we want to add a salt dispenser,” she said. Mark Carroll, an Upper Arlington “serial entrepreneur,” said he was impressed by everything he had heard from members of the entrepreneur camp. “They’re doing great. I’m impressed with the pitches; they’re well formulated,” he said. Carroll, who has started more than 10 companies, said the students had presented well-thought-
Feng is returning to the camp for his second year. “Last year, I came and thought it was a lot of fun,” he said. This year, Feng and his teammates created YoYo Pets, a virtual game. Divya Das, who will enter Coffman High School as a freshman, also is in her second year at the camp. “I thought it was a great experience,” she said of the inaugural year. “I want to learn more about talking to new people and get out of my comfort zone.” Before the entrepreneurial camp, Das said, she wanted to go into the medical field. Now she’s contemplating a mixture of business and medicine. Das and her team created the Cover Green Shade, a tinted ecofriendly window shade that protects furniture and floors from harmful UV rays. “We’re hoping to make it a product someday,” she said. In fact, Das has so much faith in her invention that she’s look-
out pitches that included marketing, website and sales plans and efforts to reach customers. “They have multiple players, and they’re assigned to certain tasks,” he said. “That’s a skill set that’s very important to entrepreneurs.”

Dublin: home to world-class events I’m not sure there are too many cities in the world with a population of 42,000 that are hosts to so many international events. Consider the Memorial Tournament, the Dublin Irish Festival, the Ryder Cup, the 2013 Presidents Cup, Can-Am Police Fire Games and now the U.S. Australian Football League national championship. Being able to attend these great world-class events in our own backyard is just one benefit. They also generate big dollars for our community. The Dublin Convention & Visitors Bureau and the city of Dublin worked collaboratively for more than a year to land the championship in 2013. The city also was selected to host the 2012 “49th Parallel Cup,” an annual event that features the U.S. national team vs. the Canadian national team. The national championship in 2013 includes a variety of divisions for men and women. It will attract clubs representing more than 40 cities across the United States. If you haven’t seen this sport, it is worth a look. Both events will be open to the public. As you can imagine, securing these national championships was extremely competitive. Dublin competed against numerous cities in the United States and Canada. In fact, Dublin was selected over Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., Austin, Texas, and others. In the end, the tournament selected Dublin because of its “tremendous facilities, passion and past history of hosting world-class events.” These events not only place the international spotlight on Dublin, but they also translate into big business for our city. Looking forward to 2013, three events alone (the annual Memorial Tournament, Presidents Cup and U.S. Australian Football League national championship) will generate an estimated $55 million for Dublin’s economy. It might surprise you to learn that the largest
chunk of visitor spending in our community is not on hotel rooms; it’s on food and beverages. Your favorite Dublin restaurant might not even be here if it weren’t for visitor dollars supporting its operation. Visitors also spend their dollars on retail SCOTT purchases, local transportation, entertainment and recreation in DRING Dublin. See how widespread the economic impact from visitor spending is in our community and how important the travel and tourism industry is to the local businesses and individuals in our community? The Dublin CVB secures a myriad of events and conferences, most of which do not receive the notoriety of such signature events as the Memorial Golf Tournament or U.S. Australian Football League championship. The bureau seeks to attract overnight visitors to Dublin and works to attract new events, tournaments and meetings that generate money for the community and help enhance the quality of living for Dublin residents. Every year, visitor dollars directly support a variety of organizations and activities in Dublin, such as the Dublin Arts Council, the Dublin Irish Festival, Independence Day and St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, lights and dugouts at Avery Park and Darree Fields, among other items. You can help the community and the bureau attract visitors to our area by providing us with potential business leads for a new conference, trade show, reunion or meeting that is looking for a location. We believe Dublin is a great destination for any event. Feel free to call us at (614) 792-7666 or email info@IrishisanAttitude.com. Scott Dring is the executive director of the Dublin Convention & Visitors Bureau.

When building a capital city, first build a prison The first capital of the state of Ohio was located in Chillicothe. After a brief move to Zanesville, the capital returned to Chillicothe. But by 1810, the Ohio General Assembly was under more than a little pressure to move the capital to a place a bit more central. After looking at several places, the Assembly chose a site across from frontier Franklinton at the Forks of the Scioto and Olentangy rivers. They called the new town Columbus. Interestingly, the first public building erected in Columbus was not — as one might expect — the state capitol building. It was the state penitentiary. There was a decidedly practical reason why this was the case. The thrifty legislators planned to use prison labor to build the state’s new buildings and it would be useful to have a safe place to put them when their day’s work was done. The prison was located at the southwest corner of Main Street and Marconi Boulevard, where the cultural arts center is today. It is somewhat difficult to see what that area looked like two centuries ago. At that time, the two-story stone-and-brick house with a full basement stood at the crest of a steep slope that swept down to the river several hundred yards away. Built into the side of the hill, the west wall of the basement opened onto a large, fenced enclosure that served as the prison yard. The basement served as kitchen and service area for the prisoners, who lived in small huts built along

Continued from page A4 the prison below. From inside the prison yard, a stairway led to secure cells on the second floor of the stone house. Each day, the prisoners would sally forth from the prison to build a new capital city. By 1816, when the General Assembly arrived for its first session, a two-story brick Statehouse was completed and was complemented on Statehouse Square with a state office building and a courthouse. A few years later, a rather plain frame addition to the state office building would house local government officials. A public markethouse would be located nearby. Most of these public buildings were at least partially constructed by prison labor, as would be the new Ohio Statehouse, which began to be built in 1839. Over the years, the prison expanded in size and its yard moved closer to the river. The arrival of the Ohio Canal and National Road in the 1830s forced the removal of the penitentiary to a new site at the corner of what is now Spring Street and Neil Avenue. While we know quite a bit about the work the prisoners did and how they did it, it is often harder to get an idea of what these prisoners were like. In 1901, a local paper offered a glimpse of some of these men while trumpeting the benefits of a new system of criminal identification. Dissatisfied with existing methods, a French policeman named Alphonse Bertillon had developed a new type of identification based on taking precise measurements of several parts of the body of an offender. These included head length, head width, length of the middle finger, length of the left foot and length of the forearm from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger. Reputed to be infallible since no two people would have the same measurements, the system was first adopted in Europe and by the turn of the century was in use in most parts of the United States. To illustrate the crudity of earlier systems used in Ohio, a reporter examined the early entry logs of the Ohio Penitentiary and offered some examples of how prisoners arriving at the institution were described. Perhaps without intending to do so, the descriptions tell us something about these people who were the first prisoners in a new town: “When the penitentiary was opened in 1815, the descriptions taken were more than interesting. Some of the entries have a comic cast. Of John Irons, received of Warren County, May 17, 1824, to serve three years for horse stealing, and afterwards pardoned by the governor, there is the following entry in pencil, ‘$30 will be paid for him delivered.’ George Kerns from Hamilton County is particularly described as having ‘a piece bit off the underside of left ear.’Ephraim Ellis, a Negro, is described … as having ‘eyes dark, hair curly, complexion dark.’George Giles is simply Bertillonized as having ‘a dimple on his chin. “Jacob Mills is described as follows: ‘Complexion baldheaded’ and ‘tottering with old age.’ John Mahany’s ‘general appearance’ consists in the fact he ‘has a mother in Cincinnati.’ Scott Maythe has ‘two scars on left leg caused by the bite of a dog.’The ‘general appearance’of another, Captain Mack, consists of some marks ‘in India ink’and ‘a wife and four children.’Another, Silas Adkins, ‘personal appearance’is recorded as ‘a scar on right cheek and a wife in Licking County.’ Jonathan Blodgett was a ‘much married man’ with ‘a scar on the right side and a wife in Huron.’ “Squire Bull is ‘blind of the right eye out.’ John A. Davis is minutely described as having ‘a scar on the right shin and one on upper lip.’ Roswell Fleming was ‘lame on the left knee.’ George Herbey’s ‘personal appearance’ would be sure to give him away because in addition to a dark complexion, his ‘wife in Ashtabula County had a scar on the right ancle and foot.’ Finally, there was Alfred Beason, alias Martin. Of him, the record simply said, “think he went out in 1835.” These brief descriptions tell us at least a little about some of the men who literally built the capital city in its earliest days. And one last note: For all of the confidence the writer in 1901 had of the Bertillon System and its superiority to old ways, it should be mentioned that two years later, in 1903, two men in Leavenworth Prison were not only found to have the same name but precisely the same measurements. Soon a new system — fingerprinting — would take the place of the “infallible” Bertillon method. Ed Lentz writes a history column for ThisWeek.

Political news Burke appointed state senator Dave Burke (R- Marysville) was appointed by the Ohio Senate last week as the senator for the 26th senate district. Burke replaces Karen Gillmor, who left her senate seat for a position with the Ohio Industrial Commission. Burke represents Dublin residents in Union County as well as Crawford, Logan, Marion, Sandusky and Wyandot counties, and parts of Ottawa and Seneca counties. “It is an honor to join the Ohio Senate, and I am grateful to have
this opportunity to serve the people of the 26th Senate District,” Burke said in a news release. “I plan to continue to focus my legislative efforts on job creation, education and healthcare as we work to create a flourishing economy in Ohio that will benefit all of Ohio’s families.” Before his senate appointment, Burke was a member of the Ohio House of Representatives and vice president of Marysville City Council. Burke also owns and operates a Marysville business, Dave’s Pharmacy. Burke and his wife Donna reside in Marysville with their two children, Alexandra and Adam.

Some ash trees along Blazer get ax By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
A closer look
As dangerous trees are removed along Blazer Parkway, Dublin continues its fight against the emerald ash borer elsewhere in the city. The removal of select ash trees that could pose a danger to Blazer Parkway traffic and pedestrians was announced recently. The trees were damaged by the emerald ash borer, a non-native insect that is killing millions of ash trees in the Midwest. The city started treating trees for the emerald ash borer in spring 2008, city forester Paula Chope said. “We did it on a limited basis,� she said. “We’ve been treating from there on and taking (trees) down. We have a certain criteria (for tree removal). If it’s smaller than 6 inches, we remove it unless the homeowner wants to treat it. We give them a permit to treat, but if the tree starts to show signs (of the emerald ash borer), we’ll remove it.� Dublin does not monitor ash trees on private property but has been watching ash trees in parks and those that line the streets. In 2007, about 3,200 (15 percent) of Dublin’s street trees were ash, and 1,500 ash trees were planted in parks. According to Chope, the city thus far has removed about 1,000 of its ash street trees. The city began removing some ash street trees

in 2007 to prepare for the invasion of the insect, but since then, street trees have been treated or removed. Chope said treating ash trees begins in the spring; this year, 825 street trees were treated. Some of those trees that were treated in the spring were along Blazer Parkway. The city’s plan was to keep some ash trees for as long as possible. “We treated some just for a time. They will come down, but we didn’t want all of them to die at one time,� she said. Trees destroyed by the emerald ash borer will be replaced with other species, Chope said. “We’ll replace the tree come fall, from October to November,� she said. “We’ll put a new tree in, not ash.� As for ash trees in Dublin’s parks, parks and recreation department director Fred Hahn said, it’s See EMERALD ASH BORER, page B2

Emerald ash borer fight continues Continued from page B1 difficult to keep up. “By and large, we have not treated park trees,” he said. “We have so many wood lots in the parks, and with ash trees being indigenous, we have a large amount of ash trees. It’s pretty impractical and close to impossible to treat all the wood lot trees.” Ash trees within parks that do get treatment or are removed are close to paths or homes, Hahn said. “If they become hazardous, we take it down. Typically, if it’s in the woods, we let them lie,”
Hahn said. Ash trees that line the parking lot at the Dublin Community Recreation Center on Post Road would be replaced if they must be removed, Hahn said. Otherwise, he said, the city will let nature take its course. “If there’s a vacancy (in the wood lots), then the odds are, another tree species will fill in it,” he said.

Swimming
O’Brien ‘can’t wait’ to join Bearcats By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Tim O’Brien emerged as one of the top athletes in the Dublin high school swimming and diving programs during his prep career. O’Brien has been rewarded for that success by receiving a scholarship to swim at the University of Cincinnati. He chose Cincinnati over Kentucky. “I just loved the city. I loved the school,” O’Brien said. “On my visit, I just loved the team. It has good fa-
cilities and I liked the coaching staff. “I can’t wait to get down there and get started. This summer just can’t go by any faster.” O’Brien expects to compete on the Bearcats’ travel team this winter. The coaching staff has indicated that he will compete in the 200-yard individual medley and the 100 backstroke, according to O’Brien. “We are very excited to have Tim joining the Bearcat swim and dive team,” Cincinnati coach Monty Hopkins said. “He is a versatile swimmer
with the potential to score in the very competitive Big East Conference championship. I expect that he will fill many roles throughout the season during the dual meet and invitational portion of the year, but as we approach the Big East championship meet he will be expected to excel in his best events.” O’Brien represented Coffman in the Division I state meet the past two seasons. As a senior, O’Brien finished 19th (1 minute, 59.76 seconds) in the 200
IM and joined Orion Martin, Srikanth Gowda and Daniel Flower on the 17thplace (1:39.25) 200 medley relay. As a junior, O’Brien, Gowda, Martin and Kyle Bailey were 23rd (1:41) in the 200 medley relay. O’Brien holds the program record in the 200 IM (1:57.75). O’Brien swims year-round, having also competed for the Westerville Aquatic Club the past two years. He began swimming competitively at age 6 for the Dublin Community Swim Team.
“The last couple of years he started to swim seriously year-round,” Coffman coach Steven VonSchrilitz said. “Through hard work and good training, he just kept getting better. I think he has a lot of upside still.” O’Brien has continued training with the Westerville club this summer as he prepares for his freshman season at Cincinnati. He credits the club for his improvement. See 0’BRIEN, page C3
Commentary
Athletes learn to deal with adversity The achievements of the high school student-athletes writing in my summer series are notable and numerous. They have won state championships in bowling, football, golf, wrestling and track and field. They have achieved great individual and team success. But along the way there LARRY have been defeats and disLARSON appointments. Each of these seniors-to-be explains how he or she has learned to handle adversity. Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “I have a picture of myself after losing to Dublin Coffman in the regional Division I championship game my sophomore year on my bedroom wall. I see it every morning when I wake up. I think it is important to remember what defeat feels like as it creates motivation to improve and the desire and drive to never feel like that again.” Faith Washington, Reynoldsburg, track: “Disappointment is the goal that you failed to accomplish. Defeat is when you fail to try again. Never give up.” Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “To be the best, one must experience defeat. One must know his mistakes and know where he does not want to be again.” Morgan Ransom, Columbus Academy, golf: “No matter how good you are there will always be disappointments. My advice is to move on and learn from your mistakes because defeat will make you stronger.” Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “I handle defeat and disappointment as fuel to go out and work even harder to be more prepared.” Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “Just tell yourself that you don’t ever want to feel that pain of losing again and that you need to work much harder to be successful.” Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “Use defeat and disappointment as a means to grow and work harder. Then simply move on and do better next time.” Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “Don’t let disappointment and defeat get to you because everyone has down days and if you worry a lot about it then things will continue to

Seadogs secure fourth consecutive SSCL title By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Muirfins’ Joe LaRue swims the second leg of the boys 11-12 200-meter medley relay during the SSCL meet on July 11.
The Upper Arlington Swim & Racquet Club defended its Suburban Swim Club League championship on July 11 at the Powell community pool, although the meet was cut short because of bad weather. It was the Seadogs’fourth consecutive title. They scored 2,635.5 points to finish ahead of Muirfield (2,513), Olentangy (2,345.5) and Hilliard (1,752). Swim & Racquet also finished first (405) in the diving competition, ahead of Hilliard (248), Olentangy (108) and Bexley (103). Swim & Racquet won
five of the nine diving age groups. Muirfield did not enter a dive team. The diving event was held in the afternoon on July 11 — after the bad weather had passed — and in the morning on July 12. The 10-and-under swimming competition was completed in the morning on July 11, but competitors in the 11-18 divisions only completed three events before bad weather forced nearly a two-hour delay. Meet officials then decided to cancel the remaining swimming portion of the meet because of lightning in the area. “Any coach would love to
have all their swimmers be able to swim,” Swim & Racquet coach Barb Smith said. “That’s what we train for all season long. That’s what these kids love. They want to get in there and race. It was kind of anticlimactic.” About 500 swimmers and 70 divers were registered to compete. “It’s extremely disappointing,” Olentangy coach Dan Harris said. “We work all summer for this. It’s the one big meet we have in our league. It’s disappointing. I always want to see the kids swim and they want to swim. You want to settle everything in the pool.” See SSCL, page C3
Top Individual Performances: No. 4
Wildcats’ Smith shined in 22-inning game By SCOTT HENNEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Courtney Smith remembers it like it was yesterday, even though it was more than five years ago. The emotion. The excitement. The exhaustion. The strikeouts. The grand slam. Especially the grand slam. In May 2006, Smith, a standout senior pitcher for the Hilliard Davidson High School softball team, went head-to-head See LARSON, page C4 with Sarah Phillips of Olentangy Liber-
ty for 22 innings in a Division I district final at Pickerington Central. The three-day marathon wasn’t decided until Smith hit a grand slam in the bottom of the 22nd for a 4-1 victory. Smith also had 29 strikeouts, the 11th highest total in state history for an extrainning game, according to the Ohio High School Athletic Association. In 2010, Hayley Flynn of Duncan Falls Philo set the state record with 55 strikeouts in 24 innings against Thornville Sheridan. “The biggest thing I remember is this
wave of emotion,” Smith said. “I was exhausted and excited both at the same time. It was amazing.” It remains the longest OHSAA softball tournament game. Liberty and Davidson played seven scoreless innings on May 17, were rained out and never took the field on May 18 and played 15 innings on May 19. “The first day (the teams) were neck and neck and I don’t think anyone had a hit,” Smith said. “I remember it rained for like three or four hours (on May 17)
and there were no lights (at Pickerington Central). “When we got rain the second day (May 18), I was really nervous because we had been playing well before the rain came. We were all really anxious to get out there and didn’t want to wait another day.” Smith’s counterpart also had an impressive performance. Phillips struck out 30, which ties her for ninth in the state See SMITH, page C3

Future OSU player wins AJGA’s Columbus Junior From staff reports
By Adam Cairns/The Columbus Dispatch
Davidson pitcher Courtney Smith struck out 29 batters and hit the game-winning grand slam in the bottom of the 22nd inning in a 2006 Division I district final.
SMITH Continued from page C1 record book with Medina’s Jessica Miller in 1999, but she also surrendered Smith’s district-title winning home run. “I think she said it was a riseball, but I don’t think so because I wouldn’t have hit it if it was (a riseball),” Smith said. “Maybe I got out ahead of the pitch before it started to move or maybe it didn’t move. I knew it was high and I was able to make contact and get it over the fence.” It was the first home run Smith had hit at any level. She played one season at the University of Indianapolis and never hit another homer. “I would have to say the grand slam was better (than the 29 strikeouts),” said Smith, who had 77 wins at Davidson. “It was my first homer ever and just to be able to finally end that game.” Liberty took a 1-0 lead in the top of the 22nd. Rebecca Adam hit a two-out double and moved to third on a single by Phillips. Emily Capretta followed with a liner that went off the glove of shortstop Cassady Busellato, scoring Adam. “It was a pitchers’ battle the whole time and we both gave up runs in the 22nd inning,” Smith said. “We went into the last inning with clear heads and ready to finish it.” Erin Roberts led off the bottom of the 22nd with a single before Lauren Espe and Meredith Parish followed with bunt singles to load the bases. Smith didn’t waste time, sending the first offering from Phillips over the left-field fence. “(Phillips) had retired like 13 or 14 in a row before we came up in the 22nd, so having our No. 9 batter, Erin Roberts, come up and get a hit was big,” Davidson coach Angelo Forte said. “Then Lauren Espe and Meredith Parish followed with bunts to load the bases and then (Liberty) shaded Courtney to right field. She had only hit one ball in her life to right field, so I was hoping she could get the ball to fall in left field so we could win it. (The grand slam) was something I never saw coming.” The Wildcats advanced to a regional semifinal at Ohio State, where they lost to Marysville 12-1 to finish the season 23-7. Davidson catcher Kaylyn Heading said the district final was the kind of game that a player never forgets. “It was 22 innings and those type of games just don’t come around often,” said Heading, who played four seasons at Rio Grande and graduated in 2010
Counting down to No. 1 ThisWeek Community Newspapers has been around for 22 years. That timeframe was used as the basis to compile a top-10 list of the top individual performances we’ve covered. Along with the experienced sports staff at ThisWeek and Steve Blackledge, high school reporter at The Columbus Dispatch, we arrived at a top-10 list. Below are Nos. 5-10. Check back next week for No. 3 and let us know your thoughts at ThisWeekSPORTS.com.
NOS. 5-10: 10. MAURICE HALL, Brookhaven football (Oct. 27, 2000) — During a season in which he rushed for 3,057 yards to rank fifth on Ohio’s all-time list, Hall’s most memorable individual performance came during the final week of the regular season. The Bearcats beat Briggs 75-16 as Hall rushed for 411 yards and eight touchdowns on 19 carries. 9. LATOYA TURNER, Pickerington girls basketball (March 19, 1999) — The 6-foot-4 senior helped the Tigers advance to the Division I state final with her 29-point performance in a 51-35 win over Wadsworth. The Ohio State recruit made 12 of 14 shots from the floor and was 5-for-6 from the free-throw line while adding five rebounds, four steals and two assists. 8. DARCY FISHBACK, Upper Arlington girls swimming (Feb. 27-28, 2009) — During preliminaries Feb. 27, Fishback broke the state record in the 100-yard butterfly when she finished in 53.38 seconds. She won her fourth state title in the event the next day in 54.17 seconds. Fishback also
with a degree in professional and business communication. “Courtney pitched great and then came up and got the big hit like she had throughout the season. It was a pretty magical ending. It’s still pretty cool, even today.” Forte said the game might never have reached the 22nd inning had a rule change not been made before the 2006 season. Before that, after games reached the 10th inning, they were played according to international rules. That meant at the beginning of each half inning, a runner was placed at second base with no outs. “We lost a district final that way to Mount Vernon (3-1 in 10 innings in 2002) and I had been pushing to get the rule changed for years,” Forte said. “I had been on both sides of the international tiebreaker, but I think the game is much-improved without it.” Before Smith’s grand slam, it was her right fielder and catcher who combined to make the game’s biggest play 11 innings earlier. Phillips was at second base with two outs in the top of the 11th when Kellie Schultz singled to right field. Phillips hesitated as she rounded third as right fielder Abbey Parsley threw to Heading. There was a collision at the plate, but Heading held on to the ball to end the scoring threat. “Courtney had a great indi-
swam on two state-record relays, the 200 medley (1:43.59) and the 200 freestyle (1:34.24). 7. CHARLES JOHNSON, Watkins Memorial boys basketball (Feb. 24, 1995) — There have been few more surprising performances than what this 5-8 senior guard accomplished in leading the Warriors to a 93-87 overtime upset of second-seeded and state-ranked London in the second round of the Division II district tournament. Watkins Memorial was just 1-19 entering the matchup but got 57 points from Johnson, who made 19 of 34 from floor, including eight 3-pointers, and was 11-for-15 from the free-throw line. He added eight rebounds, six steals and five assists. 6. KHALILAH CARPENTER, Brookhaven girls track and field (June 2-3, 2000) — At the 2000 Division I state meet, the junior broke the meet and state records in the 100 meters with a time of 11.59 seconds on June 2. The next day, she won the 100 in 11.71 and the 200 title in 23.69, a time that lowered the state mark she already held. 5. JEFF BACKES, Upper Arlington football (Dec. 2, 2000) — In leading the Golden Bears to the Division I state title, the 5-9, 180-pound senior turned in a performance worthy of the Ohio Mr. Football award that he had received days earlier. Backes rushed for 183 yards and two touchdowns on 32 carries and preserved a 159 victory over Solon at Fawcett Stadium in Canton with an interception with less than a minute remaining.
vidual performance, but we made some great defensive plays across the board and that (play at the plate) was definitely one of those,” Forte said. “I was talking to Abbey last week and she said that it was one of the most memorable plays she had as a softball player.” Along with her 29 strikeouts, Smith surrendered 14 hits and issued two walks, one in the sixth and one in the 11th. The Wildcats had 16 hits against Phillips. “That game was a duel between Courtney and Sarah Phillips,” Heading said. “Courtney was always one to find ways to get people out. I remember her riseball, screwball and changeup were working. She just found ways to, not necessarily strike them out, but to get people out.” Smith graduated from the University of Indianapolis in 2010 with a marketing degree. She stayed in Indianapolis and works in communications for an economic development firm called Develop Indy. “I was talking to a guy from work last week who was a swimmer in high school,” Smith said. “I told him about it and he thought it was great and really had an appreciation that I had played in a game like that. It definitely was a game that I’ll never forget.” shennen@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Dublin Jerome senior Aaron Huesman has verbally committed to play baseball at the University of Dayton, a Division I school that competes in the Atlantic 10 Conference. Huesman is a right-handed pitcher and first baseman. He is the son of Jerome coach Chris Huesman.
SSCL Continued from page C1 Final team standings for swimming were determined on the morning session, the three events held in the afternoon and the seeding times for the remaining afternoon competitors. Swim & Racquet swept firstplace individual honors in the boys 9-10 division, led by Alec Caswell and Jonathan Sugar. Caswell was first in the 50meter freestyle (36.11 seconds) and 25 butterfly (19.16), and Sugar was first in the 25 backstroke (19.45) and 25 breaststroke (23.65). Sugar, Reed Ray, Alec Caswell and Will Geletka were first in the 100 medley relay (1:27.08). Swim & Racquet finished first in five of the eight relays during the morning session. Silas Kayuha led Muirfield
during the morning session, finishing first in the boys 8-andunder 25 free (19.64). Muirfield’s Reno James, Nicholas Solace, Cole Iacono and Luke Schlessel were first in the boys 9-10 200 free relay (2:49.73). The host Tornadoes received several strong efforts in the morning session on their way to the third-place finish. Olentangy’s Avery Perrine saw double duty in the girls 910 division, swimming in the morning and diving in the afternoon. Perrine, 10, was first in the 25 fly (19.24), second in the 25 back (21.17) and third in diving. She joined Madeline McKain, Allie Mitchell and Kate Saczawa on the first-place 200 free relay (2:41.97). “Last year I was the youngest
in my age group and I still did well,” said Perrine, who also has joined the Ohio State Swim Club. “This year it’s a little easier because I am better.” Saczawa was first in the 50 free (34.78) and 25 back (18.94), and teammate Martina Peroni was first in the girls 8-and-under 25 free (18.12) and 25 back (21.88). “This league is getting really competitive,” said Harris, who also is the boys and girls swimming coach at Olentangy Orange High School. “There’s a lot of parity in our league, especially with the girls. There are a lot of female swimmers in the league. We’re looking to get a lot more guys involved in the league.” fdirenna@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Celtics’ Huesman commits to Dayton
Kendall Prince, who will be attending Ohio State this fall, got a jump on her college career by winning the American Junior Golf Association’s Columbus Junior presented by the Memorial Tournament. Prince, who is from Lake Oswego, Ore., shot an even-par 71 in the final round to finish with a three-day total of 6-over 219 and win her third AJGA event. The tournament was held July 11-14 at the Ohio State Golf Club’s Scarlet Course. “It felt great to defend the home turf,” Prince told AJGA.org. “I now know that I can play this course well and play it smart. I have a lot of confidence going into next year.” Prince finished ahead of Watterson High School’s Lauren Grogan (225). Also competing from central Ohio were Marysville’s Tess Frasier (234, sixth), Gahanna’s Sierra Everson (238, ninth), Columbus Academy’s Morgan Ransom (249, 13th), Watterson’s Erin Harper (251, 14th), Olentangy Liberty’s Julie Lechner (254, 16th), Westerville Central’s Sana Khan (259,

Rick Parcher, 71, has been coaching in the North Columbus Comets program since helping form the club in 1962.
Baseball
Parcher’s influence goes well beyond playing field By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Rick Parcher has been an ambassador and teacher of baseball for 50 years. He not only instructs his players on the finer points of the game, but provides “life lessons” by reading poems and stories to help emphasize his points. “There are so many life lessons in baseball,” said the 71year-old Parcher, who coaches Tree of Life Christian School in the spring and the North Columbus Comets in the summer. “A lot of (the lessons) you learn the hard way — learning to deal with victory and defeat, success and failure. You learn how to make your own needs secondary to those of the team. “Those things all come automatically with athletics, but I believe life lessons that are learned are learned more carefully, definitely and effectively if the process is guided by the coach, so I do a lot of talking.” Parcher, who has coached at Tree of Life since 1995, winning four MOCAL championships, helped form the Comets in 1962 during his senior year at the University of Wisconsin. The team’s first home field was at Whetstone Park. The Under-14 travel team now is a member of the Central Ohio Youth Baseball League. The Comets improved to 1812 after going 2-1 in the Dusty Diamonds Classic in Kent on July 16-17. Parcher was recognized for his contributions to the sport during the North Columbus Sports Firecracker Tournament on July 4 at Ridgeview Middle School, which has been the Comets’ home since 1975. Parcher received a plaque for his years of service and a field at Ridgeview was named in his honor. The Comets then honored their coach by winning the U14 division title. “I’ve told the guys they probably won’t realize how fortunate they are until they’re older and maybe some of them play in college,” Comets assistant coach Rick Sibert said. “They’re learning things now that guys typically don’t learn until they get to play college ball. From a baseball perspective, they’re so fortunate to learn these things and how to play the game the right way.” Parcher has fond memories of teams and players throughout the years. The Comets finished 38-6 in 1968, 31-0 in 1972 and 41-3 in 1981. The team has played on the state, regional and national level,
competing in national tournaments in Atlanta, Knoxville and Memphis, Tenn., and Manhattan, Kan. The team won three sportsmanship awards in four years at the Knoxville event. “A lot of that has been a lot of fun, but you can’t do that every year,” Parcher said of competing on the national level. “You have to have both the talent and the interest.” Parcher has coached several players who have enjoyed successful careers in baseball, including Mike Durant, who played in the program in the early 1980s. Durant, a catcher, played at Watterson and Ohio State before playing with the Minnesota Twins in 1996. Parcher recalled that Jeff Smith, who retired as baseball coach at Centennial in 2006, won the Comets’ first sportsmanship award in 1962. Parcher continues to recognize the team’s top sportsman each year. “I’ve coached hundreds of kids,” Parcher said. “The team is a team of talented kids and almost all of them go on to significant careers in high school and college, a few in the pros. As a result of that there have been a lot of memories and a lot of those guys are still around and I get to see them from time to time. That’s great. I really enjoy that.” Tree of Life athletics director Yohana Hill credits Parcher
for building the school’s baseball program. “Everyone loves coach Parcher,” she said. “It is amazing. I can go into any baseball environment in Columbus and someone there will know ‘Parch.’ He has coached fathers, sons and grandsons. He is a talented and knowledgeable baseball coach and has been for decades, but he is an even better individual. “I believe that many would say that baseball is his passion, but even though I know he loves the game immensely, I think mentoring and disciplining young men is truly his passion.” It appears Parcher has no intentions of stepping away from the game. “I’m still enjoying myself. There are some various things that will determine whether I decide to come back. One is whether I feel like the group coming up still wants me to be involved. The other would be my health. I’m in reasonably good health. I have a lot of pain in my joints, so I’m doing a lot of sitting down now,” he said. “Every year is gravy from now on.

Scouting news Scout volunteers receive honors The Girl Scouts of Ohio’s Heartland recently awarded Dublin area volunteers Angel Gilliland, Cheryl Hayes, Carina DaCierno and Liza Magee the Girl Scout Appreciation Pin. The pin is given only once, to recognize outstanding service to a geographic area or program delivery audience that furthers the council’s goals. Gilliland oversees the recruitment coordinators of the council’s Dublin Services Unit and is instrumental in the unit’s event planning. Hayes leads a multi-age and multi-school Girl
Scout troop and serves as a recruitment coordinator for the Dublin Service Unit. DaCierno is a community service organizer for the Dublin Service Unit and also leads a Dublin troop. She was instrumental in the Warm Hands, Caroling Hearts initiative that donated clothing items to those in need in Athens County earlier this year. Magee co-founded the Dublin Service Unit Community Service Program, which consists of four seasonal activities for girls: Coats for Columbus; Warm Hands, Caroling Hearts; Spring Clean Your Cupboard; and School Collection and Caring.

Tyler fires up wood-burning oven for new pizza offering Bryan Tyler wasn’t sure what to think of his pizzas, so he let the public decide. He put up a sandwich board outside of his Bread Basket shop in Reynoldsburg, announcing that free samples were available. “That brings them right in,” he said. The verdict: The recently introduced Naples-style pies are a winner. He praises his wood-burning oven, in part. He and a friend installed the Forno Bravo brick oven themselves. Plus, they encased it in a stucco outer shell shielding layers of mortar, fiberglass insulation and insulated concrete. Using oak and ash woods, the oven burns at 700 to 800 degrees, cooking the pies in three to four minutes. The same fresh-tossed dough is used in the pepperoni and vegetable rolls, two of the more popular items in the store, 7516 E. Main St. There is no seating inside the bakery. The menu simple, offering four types of pizzas — classic Margherita, pepperoni, cheese and vegetable — that
come in two sizes: the small, using 8 ounces of dough for a roughly 12-inch pizza, or the large, 16 ounces of dough producing a 16inch pie, give or take. His simple, allpurpose sauce uses fresh tomatoes (while in season), garlic, sweet basil, kosher salt and pepper, cooked in the oven before being thinly spread across the dough. The toppings also are judiciously applied. “We’re trying to keep it simple,” he said. The finished product features a pie with a semi-thick, chewy crust, with the edges blistered by the heat. He said those who prefer thinner, crispier crusts can ask for them. Whole pizzas range in price from $5.50 to $7 for a small and $9.25 to $11 for large. They’re also sold by the slice, $1.50 each. He experimented with different doughs in the beginning, making pizzas out of Italian and sourdough loaves — the one he preferred — but cus-
tomers prefer the traditional crust. (Tyler said he might offer the sourdough option in the future.) It’s a major programming change for the Bread Basket, known for artisan breads, cookies and assorted baked goods. The place got its start in Gahanna six and a half years ago and later relocated to the Creekside development. Tyler opened the Reynoldsburg store in March 2010. He said he’s always had a desire to cook all of his breads in a wood-fired oven, so serving pizza was a natural progression. He’s also started cooking some of the breads in the oven, which leaves the loaves with a cracklier exterior. Yes, the process involves more time, because the bread has to be rotated, which is not an issue with a traditional oven. And then there’s the capacity issue, because the wood-burning oven is only 4 feet in diameter. The Bread Basket is open for lunch and dinner hours Tuesday through Saturday. For more information, call (614) 322-9587.

Dublin student in top creator contest A Wyandot Elementary student is part of Time Warner Cable’s “Coolest Creations” viewer’s choice award contest. Fourth-grader Sriram Raju is one of 11 inventors selected for the contest that will run on Time Warner’s local on-demand channel 411. Raju invented the “Protect-O-Tot,” which alerts people if a child is left in a hot car using heat, weight and sound sensors. The invention rolls down the car windows and honks the car horn if a child is left in a vehicle, a news release from Time Warner said. Raju was filmed for the contest with his invention and his video can be viewed, along with the other contestant videos, on-demand channel 411. Every time the video is viewed, it counts as a vote. Voting is open until Aug. 31 and the most viewed video wins $500 and the “Coolest Creation” award.

Pediatric HealthSource
Abdominal pain not uncommon Recurrent abdominal pain is very prevalent in children and adolescents, making it one of the most common reasons children are referred to a pediatric gastroenterologist, a doctor who treats problems with the digestive tract and liver. One common functional disorder that causes abdominal pain in children is irritable bowel syndrome. IBS is a gastrointestinal disorder that manifests itself as recurrent abdominal pain associated with changes in bowel movements. Children with IBS may have diarrhea, constipation or both. A typical symptom is bellyache around the belly button that usually goes away or gets better after a bowel movement. Between bellyaches, the child feels fine. The exact cause of IBS is unknown, but it is believed to be due to hypersensitive nerve cells that reside in the intestines and send messages to the brain. Stress, certain types of foods such as spicy or greasy foods, caffeine, chocolate or milk have been known to trigger IBS symptoms. Physical and emotional trauma can also play a role in the de-
velopment of IBS. Some children with IBS tend to be more sensitive to stressful situsuch as DESALEGN ations family conflict, moving, YACOB taking tests and issues with peers. Sometimes, triggers are never identified. Though IBS generally doesn’t lead to serious health problems, it may affect school attendance and daily function. It is important to consult your primary care physician to address the problem and rule out other reasons why your child may be having abdominal pain. Functional dyspepsia (indigestion) is another common functional disorder. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, burping, decreased appetite, stomach pain and/or bloating. It is not associated with bowel movement changes. Indigestion usually happens infrequently, but be sure to monitor symptoms regularly and consult your primary physician with concerns. Some other gastrointestinal problems that may cause recur-
rent abdominal pain are Celiac disease, gastritis and lactose intolerance. Your doctor will decide what labs and tests need to be done, based on the symptoms and physical exam. More serious diseases such as appendicitis, Crohn’s disease, inflammation of the pancreas, stomach ulcers and intestinal blockage will typically cause sudden and persistent pain with other associated symptoms such as severe vomiting, fever, bloody stools or significant weight loss. Diagnosis of any functional gastrointestinal disorder is based on a thorough history and physical exam, along with a few basic lab tests. Treatment may involve dietary and lifestyle changes and/or medication. Consult your primary care physician if you suspect your child may be suffering from any of these disorders. Dr. Desalegn Yacob is an attending physician in the Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and an assistant professor of Clinical Pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine.

Dog cancer research might help humans By KEVIN PARKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Cheryl London’s dog, George, has cancer. The Clintonville resident fails to see any irony in that, even though she’s among those involved in research that seeks to determine if treatments which work on naturally occurring cancers in animals might have implications for treating similar cancers in humans. It’s not that London, who has a Ph.D. from Harvard, doesn’t recognize the ironic when it crops up in her life. It’s just that as a veterinarian, she saw a lot of cancer in pets and now as a researcher she sees even more. “We see it so much, I wasn’t even surprised,” London said of her dog developing the disease. And she’d very much like to be a part of people not having to see cancer in animals or people at all. “Cancer is cancer,” London said last week. “It’s a crappy disease on the human side and it’s a crappy disease on the pet side.” George, by the way, has been through chemotherapy and is doing fine, other than having to goodnaturedly put up, as dogs will, with the sometimes rambunctious play of London’s young daughter. “George is a hound and he is not a smart dog, but he’s great with my 2-1/2-year old,” she said. London is an associate professor of veterinary biosciences at OSU and a member of the Molecular Biology and Cancer Genetics program in the Ohio State University Comprehensive CancerArthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute. Sometimes in academia the title is a lot more complicated than what the person describing it does. Not in this case. London and others in the program at Ohio State, as well as similar programs elsewhere, are involved in what is called “comparative oncology.” This doesn’t involve inducing cancer in mice
By Lorrie Cecil/ThisWeek
Cheryl London, an associate professor of veterinary biosciences, kneels beside one of her patients, Justice. London is a member of the Molecular Biology and Cancer Genetics program in the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer - Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute and is involved in research into ways that treating cancer in dogs could translate to care for humans. Justice has thyroid cancer and is participating in a clinical trial.
and testing drugs to cure it, but instead devising treatments for cancers that develop on their own in pets. Viewing the different types of cancer — and there are dozens of kinds of breast cancer alone — at the molecular level enables researchers to pinpoint similarities between the disease in animals and humans. This work has the potential for speeding up the delivery of viable cancer treatments in people, according to London, in part because of how much more rapidly clinical trials can be started for pets. In part, too, dogs make better subjects for comparative oncology studies. For example, mice can’t throw up; they simply lack the mechanism. Dogs, as owners well know, can throw up, and sometimes seem to do so for the heck of it.
This alone means dogs can help eliminate some treatment or drug regimen that induces nausea or vomiting, something that testing in mice would fail to reveal, London said. It’s one of the failings of what she called “mouse modeling.” “There are clear areas when we can contribute,” London said. Cheryl London was born in Boston. She earned her doctor of veterinary medicine at Tufts University after which she spent several years in private practice in Maine, an experience that helped push her toward a career in research. “I saw a lot of cancer when I was in private practice,” she said. “I was just very interested in learning about cancer.” More than half of dogs who live to be 10 years old will get some form of cancer, according to London, with the rates varying wide-
ly depending upon breed. “It you just look overall, it’s the most common killer of dogs,” she said. After spending some time as a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Pathology at Harvard University, London spent six years on the faculty at the University of California, Davis. She was recruited to Ohio State in 2005 to help in building the “translational oncology program.” “I was really surprised when I got here at the depth of expertise at the cancer center and how metropolitan Columbus was,” London said. “The other big thing is that they really wanted to grow the program.” In addition to the expertise at the cancer center and the surprisingly metropolitan nature of Columbus, London said that finding a home in Clintonville was another factor that helped bring her

to OSU. “I’m a New Englander,” she said, “and I came into Clintonville and said, ‘This is it: older houses, a walkable community.’I like being able to walk to a coffee shop and feel like I’m in a city. I have just great neighbors.” OSU has 10 to 12 active clinical trials going on with dogs at any given time, according to London. The pet owners who participate in these are not charged, and in some instances drug companies provide incentives to get participants, she said. Ohio State is one of 20 academic comparative oncology centers involved in the Comparative Oncology Trials Consortium, which is managed by the National Institutes of Health-National Cancer Institute’s Center for Cancer Research Comparative Oncology Program. “The Comparative Oncology Program will serve as an example of an integrated comparative oncology program and will provide a mechanism by which naturally occurring cancer models can be used to generate new information
about cancer, translate biological concepts regarding cancer to relevant in vivo models and bring novel therapeutic options to the management of human cancers,” according to the website for the program. “Funding from the National Institutes of Health and Ohio State’s Center for Clinical and Translational Science helps support clinical trial efforts at the OSU College of Veterinary Medicine, and has also assisted in the generation of a large bio-repository of animal tumors and normal tissues,” according to an announcement from the OSU Medical Center. “The availability of such tissues for research has markedly enhanced the ability of researchers at OSU and Nationwide Children’s Hospital to perform much-needed genetic and molecular studies that are critical to advancing the understanding of cancer biology in both dogs and humans.” It can be frustrating work at times, London admitted. “Failure rates are very high in oncology trials,” she said, estimating about 80 percent.
