Police: Glitch limiting crime-trend data By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers Columbus police say a technical glitch in the division’s software has temporarily hampered accurate crime reporting. Since June 28, a computer program has been unable to read an estimated 30 percent of police reports used by the crime-analysis unit to help identify criminal trends.

The issue was discussed at the monthly German Village police luncheon July 28 at the Meeting Haus. Sgt. Mark Rapp, who is in charge of the crime-analysis unit but was not at the meeting, said the origin of the problem and how long it will take to correct are unclear. Rapp emphasized that the public is not in any immediate danger because of the problem.

“The issue with our database isn’t something that citizens need to w orry about,” he said. “Our analysts simply aren’t getting 100 percent of the data they need to mak e an analysis on whether we have an increase, steady (rate) or decrease in crime in a particular area.” Police use the internal data for “strategic deployment of tactical personnel,” Rapp said. The police division is ex-

pected to install a new report-management system by December, he said. The crime-analysis unit also is getting new software that will interface with the system, he said. At the luncheon, police said they have identified at least one unfortunate trend in German Village: auto thefts have risen. From June 1 to July 25,four auto thefts were reported in GermanVillage and another in the Brewery District.

Actors’ Theatre

Troupe to stage classic Greek tragedy

By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers The German Village “Tea 4 2:Two Hundred for Tea” gala is a party with a mission. Organizer Darci Congrove, a member of the German Village Society’s board of trustees,hopes the event will raise $10,000 for historic preservation in the neighborhood. “The society right now has a v ery tight budget,” she said. “And I don’t see any funds in the foreseeable future that will be allocated to special projects unless we raise those funds.” The GVS board of trustees endorsed the plan at its April meeting. The event, which takes the numerals in its title from the local 43206 ZIP code, is slated for 4 to 7 p.m.Aug. 27 at the German Village Guest House, 748 Jaeger St. The bed-and-breakfast is owned by Congrove and her husband, John Pribble. Tickets are $50 for GVS members, $60 for all others, and can be purchased at germanvillage.com. Congrove said she hopes to sell 200 tickets. The party will feature live music, a silent auction, a best-hat contest and pictures with surprise celebrity guests. Tea, wine, hors d’oeuvres and pastries will be served. Invitations have been sent to the 800 or so members of the society. The money will go into a newly created fund for historic preservation. The funds would not be used for the society’s general budget or for GVS salaries. They would be for longstanding projects — including historic signage, printed and online educational materials and digitized society archives — or as matching funds,should the society be able to secure grants, Congrove said. A three-person committee would make recommendations on how the money would be spent. Jody Graichen, director of historic preservation programs for the society, said “Tea 4 2”is important for promoting the society’s mission of historic preservation. “It tells the story of our past in a w ay that is unique to our neighborhood,” she said. gseman@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

P. Susan Sharrock looks at a “bee crossing” sign during the Bee Brunch on July 30 at Frank Fetch Park in German Village. A beehive recently was installed in the park and its honey was used in many of the dishes served at the event, which kicked off the 2011-12 membership drive for the German Village Garten Club.

Actors’ Theatre of Columbus will close the curtain on its 30th season with a performance of “Oedipus Rex.” The classic Greek tragedy, written by Sophocles, is the story of “one man’s attempt to shape his own fate,” said John S. Kuhn, artistic director of the acting troupe. “It’s a marvelous testament to man’s willpower, our ability to do what’s right at huge personal sacrifice,” he said. The play will be performed at 8 p.m. Thursdays through Sundays Aug. 4 through Sept. 4 at Schiller Park. All shows are free, but donations will be sought during intermission. The play will be performed “in the round,” or arena style, meaning spectators are seated around the stage. “And what it does is offer a more intimate experience because the audience is right up on stage,” Kuhn said. Nick Baldasare plays Oedipus,whose death was ordered as an infant by his father, King Laius of Thebes, because of a prophecy that Laius would be killed by his own son. The king orders his wife, Jocasta, to carry out the deed. She turns the infant over to a servant, who leaves the baby on the top of a mountain to die of exposure. But a shepherd finds the baby and turns him over to King Polybus of Corinth, whom the boy grows up believing is his real father. He eventually learns of the prophecy that he will kill his father and See GREEK TRAGEDY, page A2

Economic downturn draws attention to distressed homes By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers Columbus city attorney Richard C. Pfeiffer Jr. stood at a busy intersection on Indianola Avenue in the University District on July 19, pointing out a distressed property with disjointed sidewalks, rotten wooden eaves, a dilapidated porch, overgrown weeds and boarded-up windows. It’s not a new problem for the city of Columbus, but the distressed property is endemic of perilous economic times and a soft real-estate market. In some cases, it’s more evident in the summer, when foliage starts to grow and people spend more time outside. Columbus has 6,100 vacant properties, about 1,000 of which are distressed. Neighbors complain that the city isn’ t doing enough to eradicate the problem. Pfeiffer said correcting those issues tak es

time, sometimes involving a lengthy court process to bring owners into compliance or, eventually, getting the problem properties into city hands. Even small things, such as painting over graffiti, can’t be done without the owner’s permission, even if a house is vacant. Neighbors who are willing to cut grass on a v acant property are advised not to do so because it’s considered trespassing. The cost to purchase and sell is also a challenge. Bulldozing a single-family home costs a minimum of $10,000 to $15,000, which can include asbestos removal. Aside from $4.69 million for demolition through onetime federal Neighborhood Stabilization Program funds, code enforcement has $250,000 for demolition in 2011.

That means the city simply doesn’t have adequate money to maintain those properties, let alone demolish them, Pfeiffer said. “Everyone’s looking for the easy answer but there aren’t any because it involves money, and money is scarce,” Pfeiffer said. Pfeiffer holds out hope for the Indianola Avenue property, despite its appearance. The property is in a pretty strong residential market and has potential to be purchased, rebuilt and rented or sold. That is not the case in some blighted neighborhoods, where there are clusters of distressed properties. Last year, the city foreclosed on 14 properties, 10 of which didn’t sell. “If money is going to be invested in property it can’t be lost,” Pfeiffer said. “You have to get your money back. But investors are walking away.” Sometimes, finding the owner is difficult. Making him or her bring the property up to code is another issue altogether. “What we found is some of these properties

aren’t selling because nobody wants them,” Pfeiffer said. “So we still have the nuisance.” Joseph Carifa, who lives across from the dilapidated property in the University District, said he has hope for the house. “I’d like to see the neighborhood get better,” he said. ThisWeek’s attempts to contact the property owner, Four Corners Investments LLC, were unsuccessful. Jennifer Adair, a member of the North Linden Area Commission, said an entire section of Myrtle Avenue is plagued with vacant houses. That brings a host of other problems, such as people living in the houses illegally. Police are routinely called to deal with the squatters and homeowners worry about the effects on their property values. “It’s a huge issue,” Adair said. However, she said, she doesn’t fault the city for lack of effort. “There’s not much that can be done tomorrow,” Adair said. “That’s the problem. I think we have to be patient. We have to work within the system.” gseman@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

GREEK TRAGEDY Continued from page A1 marry his mother, so he decides to leave Corinth. The story quickly begins to unfold, Baldasare said. “This is a dream role for any actor,” he said. “It’s very complex and very challenging. In spite of all the tragic elements, it’s fun.” Meanwhile, the 30th season largely has been a success, Kuhn said. The troupe has performed two plays at Schiller, “The Scar-

let Pimpernel” and “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” While Actors’ Theatre has struggled with poor weather — some performances have been canceled because of rain or heat — attendance has been impressive, Kuhn said. For example, the July 28 performance of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” drew 400 people, an especially good turnout on a hot, muggy Thursday evening, he said.

“We are so thankful for the support we get from the community,” Kuhn said. “That community support is huge.” Frank Barnhart, executive director of the theater company, agreed. “We’re pleased,” he said. “The weather’s been a little bit of a disappointment this year. That’s always a factor for us.” gseman@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

CRIME-TREND DATA Continued from page A1 discussed a practice used in other neighborhoods: Placing a bright sticker on the cars of residents who did not remove valuable merchandise from the vehicles. But they decided against it because it likely would attract thieves in addition to the intended purpose of alerting owners their vehicles were at risk. Diane Warren, owner of Katzinger’s Delicatessen, told officers that her customers have

experienced a rash of car break-ins at the restaurant’s parking lot at East Livingston and City Park avenues. She said the thefts are occurring around the noon hour and especially when the restaurant is busy on the weekends. Officers suggested Warren’s employees could use their breaks to patrol the parking lot at irregular times. They said they also would patrol the area more frequently. gseman@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Workshops offered for owners of older homes By KEVIN PARKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers No house stays pristine for long. Wood rots. Foundations subside. Paint peels. Metal rusts. Shingles slide. Many other unpleasant and potentially e xpensive things can go wrong with the parts and pieces of a house. At the half-century mark, even the best-built home is going to show its age and require some tender, loving care. Because much of the local housing stock f alls into that category or is even considerably older, the Columbus Landmarks Foundation has been embarked on a local preservation initiative. The next in a series of “Old House DIY Workshops 2011” will be held Saturday, Aug. 13, at the Community Properties of Ohio training f acility, 933 E. Gay St. For $5, owners of older homes may attend a session from 9 to 11 a.m. to find out how to identify and resolve common maintenance issues. The fee for a session on wood restoration that afternoon from 1 to 5 costs $10. During the latter hands-on workshop, attendees will learn how to stabilize rotted wood, use wood consolidants and epoxies and prepare restored wood for painting. The workshops, titled “Nuts and Bolts: the Basics of Home Maintenance,” are being put on with funding received from the United Way of Central Ohio and the National Trust for Historic Preservation, according to Columbus Landmarks Foundation executive director Kathy Mast Kane. “The premise being that if we,as owners, learned to do this routine maintenance and inspection,we prevent major expenses down the road and make home ownership more attractive,” Kane said last week. Nathalie Wright, a field representative for both the Columbus Landmarks Foundation and National Trust for Historic Preservation, will provide staffing for the initiative. The term “older homes” is loosely defined, according to Kane, but it generally refers to homes that are approaching 50 or possibly well beyond. That covers a lot of territory in neighborhoods such as Clintonville and in many of Northland’s subdivisions, Kane pointed out.

“There are a lot of ranch subdivisions and they are approaching that 50-year mark,” Kane said. “Maybe the message is for residents in those neighborhoods — they may not be thinking of their homes as ‘older’but truly, they are approaching a 50th birthday or are just past it. “It doesn’t have to be a turn-of-the-century home for this to be applicable.” A home doesn’t necessarily have to be even very old at all, the foundation executive director said. “The truth of the matter is,I believe these workshops would have pertinent content for owners of any home,” Kane said. Funding from the United Way and the National Trust helps hold down the costs of putting on the workshops so as many people as possible can and will attend. With luck, Kane said, this will lead to houses getting the attention they need and being preserved because they are well worth the effort. “I think fundamentally what we know about homes, particularly those that are 50 years or older, they come with great bones in terms of what they were originally constructed with and the craftsmanship that went into them,” Kane said. The workshops encourage participants, whether tackling repair and restoration projects themselves or hiring someone, to bring that same attention to craftsmanship, rather than just doing something cosmetic, she added. “It’s kind of demystifying the process and making it more manageable,” Kane said. “And at the same time, through that educational process,people will learn more about the process and more about themselves, so they can learn if it’s something they want to take on themselves or if they want to hire a professional.” The presentations include pointers on f inding the right contractor. “It’s about getting multiple opinions and bids, and it’s about understanding what you want to have done … that’s in the best interest of your pocketbook and your house,” Kane said. Space is limited for theAug. 13 workshops and early registration is encouraged.

Village notebook

GVS leadership on the right track with Yarbrough, board The German Village Society is a thriving membership organization dedicated to civic pride through advocacy and education for preservation. Structured by committees and supported (definitely not a strong enough word) by volunteers, the elected board of trustees guides the society’s efforts and staff members work diligently to weave it all together with some semblance of order. At the helm of the board stands Mike Yarbrough, a Deshler Avenue resident, volunteer extraordinaire and definite glutton for punishment, in the best possible way. I have no doubt whatsoever that volunteering one’s time to serve on a board,especially as its president, is extremely rewarding. And I really do believe that this is the case for Mike. But serving as the president of a nonprofit neighborhood organization is tough work considering budgets, staffing, fundraising, committee work and, oh yes, a full-time job. But fortunately for the society, Mike is up to the task.Taking

over for Brian Santin, who stepped down as board president in June, Mike has a lot on his plate and, thankJODY fully, a lot of GRAICHEN support from the board and community. He brings professionalism and a big personality to the board table, and he is the first to admit that he’s lucky to be surrounded by a board of trustees so determined to do the best by their neighborhood. Mike and his wife, Mary, purchased their house on DeshlerAvenue in November 2001. Like many villagers, this wasn’t their first lap around the neighborhood. In the early 1970s, they lived in the Schmidthof apartments between Schmidt’s Sausage Haus und Restaurant and Giant Eagle — then, the Big Bear — while Mike taught at Wehrle High School and Mary taught 4-year-olds at the West Side Day Care Center.

The Yarbroughs have been active in the neighborhood since moving in and stepped up as volunteers for the Haus und Gart en Tour and in the perimeter gardens. They have hosted three PreTour dinners and their home was on the 2003 tour. It’s probably not a fun realization for them, but no matter how long they live in their home and what marks they make upon it, it will in some ways always be the “VonGerichten House” with that spectacular stained-glass front door. As such, they have generously opened said door time after time after time for private tours. In fact, I was fortunate enough for an invitation a few summers ago when Theodore VonGerichten IV visited his childhood home. It was such fun getting to walk through the home with him, at 80-plus years of age, and hearing about his childhood at the house. It was a shining example of “caretaker then” meets “caretaker now” and a moment that too few villagers get to experience.

As it were

Early ‘lady journalist’ was a newsroom-savvy editor There are still a few places in American life where all of the work is done by people of one gender — modeling men’s or women’s clothing comes to mind — but there are not many. Most of the professions, trades and occupations in our society are practiced by women as well as men. This is not to say that women are always treated the same in these lines of work. It is not too hard to find professions where women are still paid less than men. Why that might be the case, I will leave to writers about the current scene considerably wiser than I. Suffice to say, 100 years ago there were not all that man y women working in the skilled professions outside the home. One of them was Elise Fitch Hinman. And while one might make the case that the kind of work she did was still in the throes of becoming a profession, no one ever said that Elise Fitch Hinman was not very good at what she did. And what she did was write professionally for a local newspaper in Columbus. To appreciate how remarkable this was at the time, we should probably take a quick look at the “newspaper trade” of a century ago. At the turn of the twentieth century, there was no radio, no television and the movies were still machines vaguely resembling an ATM into which one put a nickel to see flickering images of people doing presumably interesting things. Hence the name, nickelodeon. Most people got most of their news from newspapers. In Columbus in 1900, there were several to choose from. The town of more than 125,000 people had several daily papers and a number of weeklies as well. Most papers in that era professed a pronounced political viewpoint — in their news pages as well as their editorials.

The Ohio State Journal was the official voice of the Ohio Republican Party. For many years, the old Ohio ED Statesman had done the same LENTZ thing for the Democrats. It was gone by 1900. By that time, what would become the Columbus Press-Post was trying to be the Democratic paper .

VILLAGE NOTEBOOK AS IT WERE Continued from page A4

Continued from page A4 In 2009, Mike worked on a special meeting of the society to amend the bylaws and constitution. He lent his legal expertise to a difficult job, but brought about solid changes to an organization then approaching its 50th anniversary. In June 2010, Mike was elected to join the board of trustees for a three-year term. When I asked Mike what he loves most about the village, he said, “I thought we would primarily like walking access to restaurants and shops. While that remains a great benefit, we have found that what we love most are the variety of activities and events that highlight the diverse nature of the community and allow us to mingle and get to see and know people in the village. Things like Village Valuables and Village Lights let us see people throughout the community and socialize on a villagewide level. “We also have had opportunities for smaller gatherings and groups such as duplicate bridge and ‘Reel Fun’ (a movie review/discussion group). Halloween is also a great day in the village as we get about 800 visitors to our home that night — a very diverse crowd.” Like so many villagers, the Yarbroughs’favorite spots are the patio at Barcelona and a booth at Easy Street Café (both within walking distance from their home). Mike and Mary love to walk and love that they notice new things every single time they do. Just as much, they love running into people on their walks and knowing that they can stop into the bar at Lindey’s to delay their return home. Columbus is full of amazing neighborhoods, but I know of no other that boasts such walkability, pedestrian energy and exceptional destinations when out for a stroll. Mike and Mary Yarbrough have become engaged in their neighborhood and have been generous with their home, their energy and their time. Sounds like a perfect fit. The general membership of the German Village Society is in good hands with the board of trustees and Mike’s leadership. Feel free to say hello when you see him walking and, as always, feel free to attend a monthly board meeting, always the second Monday of each month at 6 p.m. at the Meeting Haus. You’d be lending Mike a hand while he does the same for you. Jody Graichen is director of historic preservation programs for the German Village Society.

“Newspaper work taught me how to boil down and condense in a way that has proved invaluable when I have been asked to aid in correcting and revising a manuscript for publication. “Never have I forgotten the constant injunction, ‘Be brief, be brief, and evermore be brief.’ And my natural feminine tendency to carefully conceal the meaning under many words has been effectively curbed. “As the only woman in the office, I learned to sharpen my own pencils, to suppress sarcasm, to cultivate humor, to dress with neatness and severity, to omit slang from my vocabulary and not to mind tobacco smoke. “Thus may one command the trust and confidence of one’s fellow-workers of the sterner sex.” Elise Fitch Hinman in her time was one of the best known women in Columbus. When she died in 1921, she was remembered in a publication of her alma mater, Ohio State University. “HINMAN, Elise Fitch Hinman, ex-’82, died at her home in Columbus, December 18, following a short illness. Mrs. Hinman was prominent in many philanthropic orders in Columbus, and was especially active during the years of the war (World War I) when she worked unceasingly with the Junior Red Cross. She was one of the first women students to attend the university. “Mrs. Hinman leaves no survivors. She is the last of her family, one well-known in the early history and settlement of Columbus. A sister’s death about four years ago left her alone out of a family of three children.” Elise Fitch Hinman was one of the first woman journalists in the capital city. And she remains one of the best.

most 35 in 1898. Educated, literate and frankly a bit bored, she came from an old Columbus family and was looking for something to do. In 1898, she found it. Writing in 1911, she remembered her early career. “In the autumn of 1898, it became evident that a woman editor was needed on the staff of the Ohio State Journal, and the writer was invited to take that responsible position, with duties of the most varied description including many which have since been specialized into separate departments. Having the usual feminine distaste for monotony, I had no complaint to make of assignments which covered art exhibitions, concerts, lectures…and all organizations for the women, of the women, by the women, for the women. “The Federation of Women’s Clubs moved upon Ohio just then, and a skillful and never tiring promoter of that body lived in Columbus, who cajoled, coerced and compelled nearly every woman who could read and write into clubs of one sort or another, all of whose meetings must be announced aforehand and praised afterwards. “A very successful feature of the woman’s page was a daily menu, compiled from recipes signed by well-known Columbus women; a daily fashion plate appeared (against the remonstrance of this particular woman, who thought it beneath the dignity of the Journal). Also, for some inscrutable reason, marriage licenses and burial permits were printed in her department. “Mr. Mosgrove was the editor under whom I worked, and I extend many thanks for his clear intent and definite directions as to newspaper technicalities…” Ms. Hinman went on to de- Ed Lentz writes a history colscribe her days in the newsroom. umn for ThisWeek.
