Government shutdown hits Harrison County

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – With the government’s partial shutdown going on nearly one full month, the effects are now being felt within Harrison County. Hopedale Fire Chief Mark Marchetta stated on Wednesday that the SAFER (Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response) Grant they received last fall has already been cut into.

“We’re going on our third missed reimbursement,” Marchetta said. He said they have already missed two reimbursements and if the shutdown continues for another month then the volunteer fire department in Hopedale will go back to just that-unpaid volunteers.

Marchetta emphasized though, that service will not be interrupted and will continue on as usual.

But as of January 30th after that, there will be no food stamp benefits for February.

Deb Knight, Harrison County Job & Family Services “The grant’s out of our control,” he said, adding that he has begun looking at other sources to replace or compliment the grant, for the time being.

The Harrison County Department of Jobs & Family Services (HCDJFS) is another county agency feeling the effects of the shutdown. Assistant Director for HCDJFS Deb Knight informed the Harrison County Commissioners at their weekly meeting on Wednesday that the SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance

Program), or food stamps are being affected by the shutdown.

“It’s been changing since last Friday,” Director Scott Blackburn said. Knight said she’s on her third press release outlining the situation since last Friday, indicating how quickly things are changing. She told the board that the only thing being affected right now is food stamps with no money being available in the month of February unless people are already approved before the end of January.

“So, anybody who already has an

approved SNAP case…those benefits are issued today,” Knight said. “So, people are getting their February benefits on their SNAP cards today.

People who have pending reapplications or pending applications are being urged to get their verifications in so the cases can be approved before January 30th.”

Knight added that, though, it’s not a guarantee they are being told that people will receive those February benefits “by the end of January.”

“But as of January 30th after that, there will be no food stamp benefits for February,” Knight explained. She said they’re waiting to see what March will bring regarding information but as of now, there will be no food stamp benefits beginning in February. She added that Medicaid is not being affected, nor is the OWF (Ohio Works First), cash assistance program.

“Right now it’s just SNAP and like I said, it’s changing several times during each day but it will just continue to get worse if the shutdown doesn’t end,”

CADIZ – The old Submarina building that sits along Lincoln Ave. in Cadiz is finally occupied, though, it has been for a few months. Gary Vorhees Sr., with checkerboard apron spoke Wednesday of how Gary’s Hotrod BBQ, which once occupied space just outside the Bayform building on

Industrial Park Road, is flourishing.

Vorhees said the business has tripled since moving from the big blue building to inside the Cadiz village.

The actual name of the business, which the building it occupies is owned by Ben St. John, who also owns the Microtel Inn next door, is: Harrison Development LLC

See HOTROD PG. 2

CADIZ – Two resolutions approved Wednesday by the Harrison County Commissioners have paved the way for Dr. Scott Pendleton’s Cadiz Animal Clinic move to Hopedale and a new veterinarian hospital. Ground breaking was to take place on Thursday, which was stated Wednesday evening during Hopedale’s regular council meeting.

Commissioner Paul Coffland read the resolution (4-19), which states that the entire county was established as an “enterprise zone” back in 1988 and again in 1995, which “declared that incentives for business will enhance efforts to promote the viable and diverse economic activity necessary for rejuvenation of the Enterprise Zone…”

The resolutions passing was necessary as Pendleton was asking for a 60 percent, tax abatement of 10 years. And according to a fact sheet provided by Coffland, it lists the Pendleton project as “Cadence Properties LLC” and that abatement saves Cadence “approximately

$19,509.66 yearly or $195,096.60 over a 10 year period.”

With the tax abatement involved the approval of other parties such as, Green Township, the Harrison Hills School District, Belmont-Harrison Career Center, village of Cadiz, Cadiz Township and the Ohio Development Services Agency were needed and received, which the commissioners confirmed Wednesday.

It was also stated that, “no objections were received.”

Commissioner Don Bethel added that Pendleton would still be paying more taxes than he is at his current location near the county airport.

Pendelton’s new 7,000 square foot facility will include a “full service veterinary hospital with in-patient, out-patient, traditional and holistic medical therapies and advanced diagnostics…” per the resolution.

It is expected that 10 new full-time jobs would be added to the new facility with an approximate finishing date of December 2020.

The actual agreement (3-19) was then read and fully explained by

Cadiz Village withdraws interest in taking Army Reserve building

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – After months of discussing the subject openly and several years of contemplating the move, the village of Cadiz officially withdrew their interest in the U.S. Army Reserve Center located at 978 E. Market Street. Council member John Vermillion made the motion and council approved without any discussion.

Village Solicitor Costa D. Mastros explained that after several discussions and after reminding council of the Jan. 19 deadline, asked what they would like to do. Vermillion then announced his motion and it was approved unanimously. After the meeting no council members had any comment with Zitko basically stating they were not interested in occupying the building any longer.

Police Chief Ryan McCann who at one time was interested in possibly moving

HARRISON

NEWS-HERALD One section, 10 Pages Vol. 51, No. 38

the police department to the Reserve Center, offered several reasons as possibilities for the village withdrawing their interest, one of which included

finances. McCann, though, showed no real concern for the withdrawal and apparently expected this move.

Sheriff Joe Myers stated Monday that

the county was still pursuing the building but with the government shutdown, there is to be an expected delay in any finality involving the county.

In another surprise move, Kevin Brooks, who was nominated by Mayor Ken Zitko to be the next village administrator but failed to gain more than three votes when he first came up for approval two weeks ago, withdrew his name from the position. A contract to present to the new candidate, Ted Andrzejewski, was approved. Andrzejewski is from the Cleveland area and will now await council’s approval.

Andrzejewski, as Brooks, would also be required to move into Cadiz per the village’s ordinance of having to be a resident within six months of their appointment.

Also, a move to accept a towing bid from Blackies was tabled due to incomplete information. Vermillion’s motion to table the bid, who it was said was the lowest, until the next meeting was

approved. Mastros reminded council that, “you can reject any and all bids and re-bid.”

An ordinance (2018-66), which has been tabled for the last several meetings, which dealt with a water purchase agreement with Harrison County was finally withdrawn. The wording in the ordinance authorizes and directs “the village administrator to enter into…” and Mastros felt it best to have it withdrawn until an administrator is appointed.

In other items, council member Thomas Crawshaw was nominated as council president for the coming year.

The next regularly scheduled council meeting is set for Jan. 24, at 7 p.m. The next Community Improvement Corporation meeting is also set for Jan. 24, at 6 p.m. Both will be held as usual inside the municipal building across from the courthouse.

HOTROD

From PG | 1 Featuring Gary’s Hotrod BBQ. The business, at least for now, is only open Wednesday and Friday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. but Vorhees said there have been lines from the door to the counter on Wednesday evening and some Fridays as well.

What they have is a variety of choices and that includes alcohol. Beer and wine is what is being offered for the spirits but he said mixed drinks are on the horizon. Vorhees said one of the odd requirements to having a liquor license is that they serve soup, believe it or not. So chili it is, which was on the menu for this Wednesday.

Also, pastry is included with different cupcakes to choose from such as, banana nut, maple bacon and peanut butter. Pastry popups in cake form are also on the counter and slices of various cakes too. Of course, one can also have a soda or cup of coffee to go along with that.

The pastry is provided by SugaRee Cupcake Company, owned by Sharee Capers (740491-1935), which is also located in Cadiz.

Vorhees emphasized that all their food is homemade and much of the meats are smoked along with their deviled eggs with the jalapeno peppers on top. Some of the dinners offered are the pork loin and chicken breast, as well as the gourmet mac and cheese with the brie and Havarti white cheddar cheese.

But you can’t forget the famous burgers, which come in the onepound or half-pound variety and are now smoked as well, Vorhees said. .

“Bigger plans for the future,” is what Vorhees when talking about seating areas, food and drink. What is holding them back from their doors being open more than two days is the amount of work it takes considering everything is homemade, Vorhees said.

The number to call for orders is: 491-0065.

New Athens addresses EPA citations

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com NEW ATHENS – The village of New Athens received an EPA letter citing the village on five concerns they said the village needed to get done. Mayor Joe Petro called the water tank the biggest concern with the overflow and a piece of pipe that needs to be a certain distance from the ground.

Petro ran through other logistics regarding the pipe to hold it in place, as an example. He said he’s inquired around but so far, hasn’t been able to find someone who is willing to do that work. And whoever does the work will need a bucket truck in order to reach near the top, he added.

Another concern was the lack of reporting of water production and the gallons the village was using per day.

“Okay, the end of the world,” Petro said sarcastically. Another was bacteriological sampling. A revised sampling plan needs to be sent back to the EPA

representative dealing with the village.

Also, disinfection monitoring was the third concern with the EPA demanding that the sampling needs to change locations.

Petro said they would use four locations for testing with his house and a council member and Village Administrator Tosha Giesey’s house as three of the four.

The fourth item the village was cited on is the requirement for a contingency plan in case of a water emergency.

Petro said he has phone numbers for contacts around the county that could provide the village with bottled water, such as the county itself. And the fifth item was the water tank.

“At any rate that’s what it was all about,” Petro said, “so it’s nothing major but the biggest thinking will be the water tank because it’s not going to be a simple fix…the worst case scenario is we’ll have to get a contractor in to do something [but] I don’t know, we’ll see.”

Another major concern is an old water line that council has

discussed on previous occasions.

The line begins and serves 25 New Athens customers in Belmont County. An older line that connects with Ohio 9 serves only four customers but with leaks it has created a dilemma for the village with an estimated cost for a new line of around $4 million.

“It’s a tremendous amount of trouble,” council member Mark Arnold said. “I’m telling you it broke us one summer, it broke us,” he said regarding the fixing of previous problems with that line.

Giesey later stated that the EPA has a program called WSRLA “to give principal forgiveness and low interest loans.” The WSRLA application is due March 1st, she told council and the money would become available “after July,” if approved.

“CDBG may offer funding options for the village,” Giesey explained. “The census data from 2014, which is the current, shows LMI (low to moderate income) percentage at 70.21 percent low to moderate income.” She said this would make the village

eligible for grant money.

Petro remarked that one problem the village may have in obtaining those funds is that they are not in an emergency state, such as an inability to deliver water to its customers. He fears that that may be the main requirement for approval of those funds.

“I think…for example out Route 9 our downfall is going to be the amount of people that the line actually supplies,” Giesey explained. “The plus side to it is there is no fire hydrants out there.” She said the EPA’s program may support the village’s need because of the lack of hydrants.

“Well I think we should get in for anything that we are eligible for,” Council Member, Nancy Martin said with, which other council members agreeing.

Also, New Athens voted to change their meeting days from Tuesday to the second Monday of each month. The time of the regular council meetings will remain at 7 p.m.

No injuries reported in mobile home trailer fire

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

Two workers who were on the property nearby late Wednesday morning, spotted smoke coming from a mobile home and called 911. That smoke turned briefly into a raging fire just off U.S. 22 near the Oxford Mining office.

There were no injuries as the mobile trailer was not occupied at the time and the owner was not on site at the time of the fire.

Hopedale Fire Chief Mark Marchetta stated the mobile home looked new and looked to be in good shape but as to what started the fire, or even where in the trailer was a mystery. One first responder stated the fire marshal had been informed and was on his way in.

Two loud explosions were also heard while the fire burned on, which one first responder said could possibly have been propane tanks.

The fire looked to have started somewhere in the back, as fire and rescue crews began punching out windows in order to reach the fire with their hoses. A power saw was also used to cut a square hole near the pullout where the fire looked to be concentrated.

Eventually the pullouts on both sides were

The call came in between 11 a.m. and

11:30 a.m. Crews from Cadiz, Hopedale, New Athens and the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office answered the call. The investigation is now pending.

Lakeland Academy holding Jewett chief reports arrests doubled compared to last year steady on enrollment

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

FREEPORT – During Treasurer Todd Johnson’s rather brief phone conference he informed Lakeland Academy’s board on Monday that not much had changed compared to the last month of 2018.

Enrollment rose just one student in December, which was up one from November but again rose to 65 students for the new month of January as well.

“So, slight increases in enrollment, which led to slight increases in revenue,” Johnson stated. He projected their ending cash balance to be “$12,000 higher than our original budget.” He said the original budget was around $160,000 and now projects it to be “just under $173,000.”

In other items, Superintendent Scott Bardall read the results of the sponsor’s (NCOESC) report

stating that “everything is organized and in order.” The report continued by reporting on the different techniques of teachers in their classrooms, noting use with computers, teaching “whole body listening,” and the Constitution, as an example.

“Even though the school is battling numbers and students moving in and out on a rather consistent basis, those who are being served here are being served well by a caring staff,” as read by Bardall from the report.

“They continue to use current data to assist all the students at Lakeland, I observed teaching from bell to bell in every classroom, no time being wasted, no busy work [and] a lot of professional work teaching taking place.”

The glowing report continued by calling the Academy a team and family approach and, “small

in size but big in heart.” Bardall also reported a state grant received in the amount of $2,500 for school security.

Board member James Fleming reported that Pioneer 360 provided a camera system in the amount of $2,616.90.

“This is a small unit, it will expand, “Fleming explained.

“You can add more cameras later.” He said there could possibly be 30 days worth of recordings with one camera providing a 360 degree view with a fish-eye lens.

Bardall also announced a check from the Harrison County Commissioners for $2,541.98 to go towards their playground equipment.

Also, Aaron Koch was elected president of the board while Joyce Klinger as vice president.

The board also voted to change meeting days from Mondays to the second Tuesday of every month. The meetings will still be held at 6 p.m.

Progress continues on local power plant Harrison Power LLC and its affiliate EmberClear of Houston, Texas, recently announced that progress continues on the development of a natural gas-fired electric power generating plant slated for Cadiz in Harrison County.

According to Raj Suri, CEO of EmberClear, while the facility’s groundbreaking originally slated for the Fall of 2018 has been delayed until the first half of 2019, significant milestones have been achieved that continue to move the project forward.

EmberClear intends to construct a 1050 MW natural gas-fired electric power generation facility on about 100 acres in the Harrison County Industrial Park. EmberClear, which will invest nearly $1 billion in the construction, estimates that the facility will provide enough electricity to power one million homes. The project is expected to bring about 700 construction jobs to the county for three years, and then create over 20 permanent

skilled jobs.

The plant is being built near shale formations containing prolific amounts of low-priced natural gas. Several pipelines operated by Dominion East, Spectra, Energy Transfer and Columbia are already located within a few miles of the project site. In addition, several fractionation and gas distillation facilities already in Harrison County have plans to expand production.

Earlier this year, the Harrison County Commissioners approved an enterprise zone tax exemption for Harrison Power LLC. The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio also issued a Certificate of Operation for the facility. In November, it issued a similar certificate to a related entity, Harrison Power Transmission LLC for the transmission line that will connect the facility to the AEP Ohio Transmission Company, Inc. Nottingham Substation.

According to Suri, while he is pleased with the forward momentum, “the regulatory

process has been slower than expected, likely due to the increased volume of activity in Ohio’s oil and gas industry.”

“Harrison County is pleased to see progress continue on this important facility,” said Nick Homrighausen, Harrison County’s Executive Director of Community & Economic Development. “In a large and complex project with as many regulatory hurdles as this one has, having slight delays is not uncommon. We continue to work diligently with the developer towards completion of this project. This project shows Harrison County’s potential to be a major player in the shale oil and gas industry.

I’m excited to see additional projects come our way.”

increase insurance on equipment.

Council member Sticht spoke about the road North High Street extension that was discussed at November meeting that the easement revote proper plots were wrong.

Ralph Wright of the water department told that they are still waiting for EPA approval on pipeline route for water. He also told that the town put up and took down Christmas decorations in the village. And that Freeport has plenty of drinking water that is ok.

Clerk-Treasurer Anna Cook told that most of the water bills have been sent out and others are being checked on; the water account is in bad shape.

Council discussed at December meeting that Clerk-

treasurer Anna Cook had until February to move her office from her home to town hall.

Cook said she was working on year-end reports and cannot move. So council voted to move the deadline from February to April.

Council voted to have Sandy Dickey as President for another year. It was noted that Harrison County Sherriff 's Department are patrolling the Freeport streets.

CCH announces Christmas tree recycling schedule

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Community Outreach Specialist for CCH Environmental (Carroll, Columbiana Harrison), Tom Butch appeared before the Harrison County Commissioners Wednesday to inform the public where and when to get rid of their Christmas Trees. He apologized for not appearing sooner but scheduling conflicts prevented that.

There will be four sites: The Department of Jobs & Family Services in Cadiz, behind the fire station in Hopedale, the

Village Park on Route 800 in Freeport and across from Baker’s Foods in Scio.

The open dates are through Jan. 31. There will be a sign at all four sites that reads: “Recycle your live Christmas Tree here.”

Butch said if the public has no other use for their trees to drop them off at one of the four sites and emphasizes that the public to please strip the trees of all plastics.

“Please do not put your trees in plastic bags or bring plastic trees, wreaths, tinsel or ornaments to the recycling sites.” Butch said that they appreciate people bringing in their cardboard boxes but to also

flatten them as they can take up too much space if not flattened out. Also, please remove the Styrofoam from the boxes as they are not recyclable.

Other suggested uses of Christmas Trees are as follows: Resting places or shelter for birds and other animals in the backyard, to be placed in ponds or lakes “to act as a fish habitat.”

Also, they can be used to prevent erosion washouts.

JEWETT – Wednesday, Jewett Police Chief Ron Carter reported that arrests so far this year have already doubled from last year. Other figures Carter offered were 289 service calls in 2018, 407 traffic stops, 270 traffic citations among the figures he shared.

“We have more people in jail this year than we had last year,” Carter told council. “And we have as many domestic violence issues we had all of last year with one being a felony and the guy is on the run.”

This led Carter to request permission to purchase a Taser for his department. He said Evolution donated $500 to his department for a rifle but Carter stated he needed $1,000 for what he said was roughly the cost of the Taser.

“We need a Taser,” he said. “I should of [sic] did it last year but I can’t let my guys no more go out without a Taser; we’ve got to have a Taser. It could have been utilized three times this year already.” Carter said one time they had to call for backup where a sheriff’s deputy had to use the Taser on someone.

“We’re going to get an officer hurt if we don’t get a Taser,” he pleaded once again. He said

after pricing them he felt a thousand dollars would cover the Taser and a cartridge. He added that Sgt. Howe from Cadiz is certified to train in the use of Tasers and would train Carter’s men.

Council member Bo Baillie’s motion to purchase a Taser passed without much discussion.

“I appreciate it guys and like I said, it’s getting crazy. And, like I said we surpassed last year’s arrest total in two weeks for the whole year,” he told council. He added that in comparison to other vandalism going on in other villages, Jewett has had one so far and that was solved and hoped it was an example of what a police department’s presence is doing for the village.

Other items addressed were Clerk of Water and Public Affairs Rhonda Harris said she has implemented the village’s debt service increase into the billing system. Village employee Charley Harris stated that a no parking sign has been placed in front of the church, a subject they spoke about at the last meeting.

Also, two residents appeared before council regarding their concerns over a drainage ditch in front of their home on Ohio 151 coming into town. Tom

Birney said residual off the hill has washed into the catch basin jamming it up. He said erosion is causing the loss of his hillside making it more difficult to even mow his lawn. He told council that matters were made worse when after paving the road, lime stone and “crush” placed on top of it was put in.

“All that crush on top is that water came down off the road, it just washed all of that crush right off the top right down to that catch basin, which is right at that little sharp turn…” he said referring to where the corner of 151 meets Ohio 9 coming into the village.

“Again, we’re here asking for some help. I don’t know what you can do and what you can’t do…” he told council. He said he’s been in contact with Congressman Bill Johnson’s (R) office considering it’s a state road.

Charley Harris said “technically it’s a state highway but it’s in the village limits,” basically stating that it is on the village to fix the situation.

Mayor Dwight Busby said whatever the village could do they would, after Birney stated they want to help as well. “We’re more than willing to work with you.”

SMITHFIELD

BY Esther McCoy December is so busy and then January comes lumbering in with many organizations closed down until spring because the weather causes them to be canceled sometimes.

Farm Bureau meetings are always on tap.

Farmers work out in all weather occasions and are well attuned to snow and sleet so the meetings go on. That has given me something to do at the start of the year I want to give a big hug to Beverly Riddle, the Jefferson County Farm Bureau president. She went through many months of illness but has recovered lots. She attended the Ohio Farm Bureau meeting in Columbus and came back to give an account of what is happening these days. Cheers to John Seleski, Harrison County Farm Bureau president for several years. He was a big fan of Dave Barnhouse and arranged an auction of a huge print of farm life-past at the yearly meeting. It sold for over $20,000.

The money will be divided between the Jefferson, Harrison, Carroll and Tucarawas county Farm Bureaus. Every time I go hunting for something and find it in an inopportune place, I start to worry about Alzheimer's disease.

The Alzheimer's Association sent a flyer of warning signs for the disease. Here goes and I hope you pass all of them. 1) Memory loss that disrupts daily life. 2) Challenges in planning or solving problems.

3) Difficulty completing familiar tasks.at home, work or leisure. 4) Confusion with time or place. 5) Trouble understanding visual images and spatial relationships.

6) New problems with words in speaking or writing.

7) Misplacing things and losing the ability to retrace steps. 8) Decreased or poor judgment. 9) Withdrawal from work or social activities. 10) Changes in mood and personality. It may be hard to know the difference between agerelated changes and the first signs of Alzheimer's disease, as individuals may experience one or more of these in different degrees.

Have them checked out.

I had a situation when 16 McCoy family members gathered for a holiday dinner and the treasured opening of presents from Grandma and Pap. The reason for each one opening their presents in a row and sharing what they received is that some bring about big laughs. For instance, we gave Matthew, an 18-year-old college student who drives to his place of knowledge in Columbus each day, a car disaster hammer in the event one is trapped in the car while in an accident. The hammer awaiting such an assignment is to be kept in the glove compartment and removed and used to break a window to escape. When Matthew opened it he asked what it was for. "In the event you are trapped in the car, get the hammer out of the glove compartment and hit yourself in the head with it," was my comment that brought lots of laughs. Back to my situation, Jesse mentioned that Brussels sprouts were good coated with olive oil or cooking oil and roasted in the oven. Apparently, I put too much oil in the cookie sheet for some splashed out on the coils and set the oven on fire.

Everyone was in the living room talking it up like McCoys are known to do as I yelled "I have a fire in the oven." No one paid attention so I yelled louder, "I am

not kidding, I have a fire in the oven." Youngest son, Darin , came dashing in, opened the oven and started doing the Big Bad Wolf huffing and puffing on the fire. In the meantime, I remembered that either baking soda or salt was good for a tire and yelled into the living room asking which one to use. No one was serious yet about me throwing a hissy fit about a fire and someone yelled in "Just don't throw water on it." I didn't have to use either as Darin had the fire blown out in the nick of time.

Then we had a smoky atmosphere in the kitchen and living room and I found out at that moment that the exhaust over the stove was not working.

We opened doors and had a chilly, fresh air atmosphere for our dinner. I had some good comments on the businesses of old in Smithfield in my last column. Some were remembered and some were not. My nephew Dathan, remembered very few as he is one of the younger McHughs. It's fun to walk down Memory Lane now and then and realize how much the world has changed. For instance, I think only about seven or eight students in my class had a television. And I was not one of them. I made frequent visits to the home of Florence Burkett Turnbull and Beverly Francisco Balash, neighbors, to watch some shows. The rest of the time it was either The Lux Radio Theatre, Jack Benny, Jimmy Durante, Red Skelton, Amos and Andy or Inner Sanctum with that one really scaring me.

HOPEDALE

By Keele Ross Note: The cost of a first class stamp will be increased to 55cents effective Jan. 27. Let’s try to remember this!

Keep in mind that the bank, post office, school and city building will be closed Jan. 21 to observe Martin Luther King Day. Get well thoughts and prayers to Allen Fleming, Val Peterson, Margaret Bailey, Bob Boals, Alan Leazure, Jim Ward, Crow Voich, Beth Postlewaite, Joe Case, Jennie Folio, Gene Liggett and Jimmie Poillucci. A speedy recovery to all of us!

It’s all about “you” day to those celebrating a birthday: Rob Raber, Sue Tweedy, Regina Dunlap, Joy Mencer, Maliha Adams, Kassey Pelegreen, Fred Tipton, Ernie Tipton, Crow Voich, Emma Capers, Lee Ann McGurn and Jeanette Barnes.

Also, a very happy belated birthday to Ernie Roghelia on Jan. 13.

Before I go: 1) Life is like a camera…focus on what’s important, capture the good times, develop from the negative and if things don’t work out, take another shot. 2) The problem is people are being hated when they are real, and are being loved when they are fake. 3) When friends become family, know you are blessed and know what you have is rare. 4) Don’t do something permanently stupid just because you are temporarily upset. 5) If you didn’t see it with your own eyes, or hear it with your own ears, don’t invent it with your small mind and share it with your big mouth. 6) Weak people spread rumors. Stupid people believe them.

Please don’t spray or pull the spring dandelions! They are one of the first sources of food for bees.

I thought this was funny: Don’t tell secrets in the garden. The potatoes have eyes, the corn has ears, and the beans talk.

Have a fantastic week, take care, be careful if you’re out and about in the winter weather as they’re calling for a storm on Saturday.

God bless.

A look back at the Civilian Conservation Corps Camp

Look at the Past: C.C.C. Civilian Conservation Corps Camp was set up in July 1940 near Cadiz, off the Country Club Rd, (near the disposal plant) on the Dellenbaugh Farm. The cost of the camp, exclusive of the buildings, was about $400,000.

Riders, Red Devils cool off Huskies on two different occasions, with one of those leads taking place in the fourth quarter, the Red Devils still managed to pull out the 71-65 victory.

The final score in the tip with the Purple Riders isn’t exactly a fair representation of how the action played out. The visitors led just 35-31 at the intermission, and with under five minutes to play in the fourth, two Payton Taylor free throws had closed the Riders lead to one possession at 55-53.

However, that was as close as the Huskies could get in the final minutes. The dagger came when Pugh found Rider teammate Caleb Olson wide open under the bucket to go up 65-57 with just 1:45 burning on the clock.

Olson only had six points on the night, but it was that bucket at just the right time to push the game out of reach for Harrison.

It didn’t help the Huskies that the Riders went 22 of 31 from the charity stripe, with 15 of those freebies coming down the stretch in the fourth.

CADIZ – A calendar week in the sports world can make quite the difference. Coming into the weekend seven days ago, the Huskies were riding the highs of a six game winning streak, with their flag firmly planted atop both the Buckeye Eight South Division, and OVAC 4A races.

Two games and two losses later, they find themselves removed from the Buckeye Eight chase, and dropped into the mix of a very crowded six team race in OVAC Class 4A. Martins Ferry (9-3) trekked to Cadiz last Friday night and completed the season sweep of the Huskies (7-3), taking advantage of DeAndre Pugh’s 28-points en route to a 73-60 victory. To add a little salt into that open wound, the St. Clairsville Red Devils (9-3) pulled the season equalizer on the Huskies this past Tuesday on John Jenkins Court in the Belmont County seat. Although Harrison led by as many as nine

Mitchell paced his squad with 22-points against the Riders; senior Evan Stine was the only other Harrison player in double digits with 11. Taylor and Gavin Muckle finished with eight tallies each. Taylor went 4 of 4 at the free throw line in the fourth to keep the game close, and Muckle connected on two field goals from beyond the arc on the way to padding his number.

Caden Dalton registered six on the scorecard, and youngster Sam Santile saw meaningful minutes for the first time this season, posting a five spot in the book. Santile’s night was big for a team looking for a little more size underneath the basket. The sophomore was tasked with attempting to match size on size with Ferry’s big man in Pugh; quite the call to say the least for the underclassman.

Matchups between St. Clairsville and Harrison seem to always find their way into the instant-classic category, and while this past Tuesday’s bout didn’t come down to the last

“Congratulations to the top eight Huskies who became place winners, and have now qualified for the Regional Spelling Bee,” said Harrison Central Principal Ken Parker.

“The Regional competition will take place on March 9 at 11 a.m. at Buckeye North Elementary School. The winner of the Jefferson-Harrison County Regional Spelling Bee will advance to the National Spelling Bee,” Parker added.

From PREVIOUS picture of how close this one was throughout the evening. In the first meeting between these two teams, Muckle and Mitchell laid out the syllabus on how to host a scoring clinic.

With that said, even with a combined effort of 59-points in December from the two Harrison sophomores, it was still a back and forth affair that came down to the wire. Tuesday night Mitchell was once again quick to find his comfort zone, netting eight in the first quarter, and 12 more in the second en route to a team-high 27. That mark is becoming routine for the sophomore, as he is now averaging 27.2 points per game

CADIZ - On Monday night in Cadiz the Harrison Central junior girls basketball team won both ends of a contest against visiting East Liverpool. The seventh grade team would close the first half of the game tied at 5-points each, but returned to

slowly walk away with 9-points in the third, to ultimately register an 18 -10 win.

In the eighth grade game the Huskies remained in control of all four frames and went on to defeat the visitors by a score of 35 - 13.

at the season’s official midway point. Muckle was Mitchell’s primary back-up on the scoresheet, knocking down 15.

Evan Stine rounded out the double-digit leaders with 12.

The Red Devils took advantage of a host of Harrison mental lapses in the fourth quarter, and when the turnovers finally caught up to the Huskies with 1:40 to go, Matt Busby was splitting three defenders with an acrobatic drive to the rack to put his team in front 67-65. The lead would hold true as the Huskies would then go the remainder of the contest unable to produce any offense.

The Red Devils ran down the clock with the normal gameending procedure of keep away and free throw shooting. Matt Busby and Craig Bober turned

the table on Mitchell and Muckle in the rematch, Busby having finished with 19-points, and Bober with 20. The Red Devils also got 12 each from Brett Vike and Justin Heatherington.

The loss on Tuesday eliminated the Huskies from the three team race that was the Buckeye Eight South. Now St. Clairsville and Martins Ferry will vie to represent the South Division against North Division Champ East Liverpool (11-3) in the Feb. 2 Championship event.

Harrison will need to forget the past week rather quickly in order to stay in the OVAC 4A conversation. Union Local visits this weekend, and Beaver Local will head to the Stephenson Center on the 22nd.

In regular Huskies fashion, both teams would place first in their divisions, while each team went up against six other teams.

For Harrison Central this is the second consecutive competition where the Huskies have pulled off a “clean sweep.

“There is no better feeling than an earned win,” said Huskies coach Sunnie Ruble. “We’ve dealt with obstacles already this

season which caused making several changes the week of competitions, but the girls adjusted very well and have showed they will do whatever it takes to win. We are very excited to see what the rest of the season has in store for us,” Ruble added.

The Huskies will travel again to OSU on Jan. 25 at the St. John Arena.

Heart disease to be discussed at Lunch & Learn Workshop CADIZ - On Thursday, Feb. 7, Carol A. Teter, RN, BSN Community Nurse Educator, at Harrison Community Hospital, will lead a discussion on women and heart disease. The workshop begins at noon and will be held in the hospital cafeteria.

You will learn how heart disease in women can be different from that of men. For example, some women don't experience the classic chest pain that we have been told may signal a heart attack. This may cause a woman to delay seeking medical intervention as she should immediately.

Women's heart attack symptoms can be subtle, and in this workshop, you will learn what some are. This may result in a higher mortality rate in women, especially younger women. The American Heart Association confirms the above.

Dr. Gregg Fonarow, Professor of Cardiology at the University of California, Los Angeles, also noted women who don't recognize their heart attack symptoms won't seek needed medical care. Dr. Maxine Mehta, Director of Women's Cardiovascular Health Program at OSU Medical Center, concurs. She knows firsthand after losing both grandmothers at age 60 who had presented with atypical (uncommon) symptoms.

Dr. Mehta's personal experience was published in the Jan. 25, 2016, edition of the American Heart Association journal, Circulation (Kathleen Doheny, HealthDay Reporter, as noted in "Women's Heart Attacks Are Different Than Men's," webmd.com/women's/news, 125-16): “It's a man's disease; I'm

too young; Breast cancer is the real threat.”

If you have heard or made any of these statements, you are not alone (Go Red for Women Editors in an article, “Common Myths Regarding Heart Disease.” - 12/2012).

The Lunch & Learn Workshop for Thursday, March 7, will feature Scott Pendleton, DVM. Dr. Pendleton spoke at the March 2018 workshop on the black-legged, deer tick and its spread of Lyme Disease in the county. His program will update you with new information regarding the Lone Star Tick that is now here. Other species that have already arrived or are expected in the future along with the diseases they carry will also be discussed. The Workshop will meet in the Harrison Community Hospital cafeteria at noon.

Toy Drive benefits Akron Children’s Hospital BLOOMINGDALE-Students in the Family, Career and Community Leaders of America organization at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School want to brighten the lives of sick children by providing new toys for those receiving hospital care.

The organization is currently holding an after-Christmas toy drive to benefit Akron Children’s Hospital and is seeking new items to bring some smiles to the young patients.

Senior Brie Sheets is spearheading the campaign, saying she was inspired after attending an FCCLA leadership workshop in October with fellow group members Brooke Mitchell, Hannah Mitchell and Sasha

Mitchell. They were among an estimated 400 FCCLA students from middle and high schools statewide who heard lectures and learned how to work together in addition to being leaders.

“They told us to think of events that would help the community,” Sheets said. “I decided on Akron Children’s Hospital. It’s personal for me because I plan on attending college there next year.”

Sheets said she plans to attend the University of Akron and study early childhood education, after which she hopes to become an intervention specialist.

The collection lasts until Feb. 28

and organizers are accepting new toys and there are stipulations about what can be donated. Items must be in their original packaging and must not depict violence or have loose materials, mirrors, glitter, feathers, sand, synthetic animal hair, food or fragrance. Sheets said toys may be dropped off at the ECE preschool or Edison High School, the latter of which is her home school. With each donation, the contributor’s name goes into a raffle drawing for a chance to win one of two $25 Visa gift cards and winners will be chosen by Feb. 30.

Sheets said the toys will be delivered to the hospital at the end of February.

Quest for Success hosting Movie Day Jan. 26 RAYLAND- The Quest for Success program is inviting youth to take part in a special movie day event at the Brightway Center on Saturday, Jan. 26.

The free festivities will be held from noon to 3 p.m. at the center located at 2511 County Road 15 in Rayland.

Attendants will view “The Incredibles 2” and a concession stand will be available with refreshments.

Quest for Success, which is

sponsored by the Jefferson County Educational Service Center and funded through the 21st Century Grant, serves Jefferson County students in grades 5-8 who attend Buckeye Local, Edison, Indian Creek, Steubenville, Toronto, Bishop John Mussio and Jefferson County Christian schools and works to bolster math and literacy skills as well as social development.

This is a community event and participants do not have to be

in the Quest for Success program to attend.

Transportation can be arranged if needed and participants must RSVP by Jan. 23 by contacting Martariesa Fiala, community coordinator, at (740) 283-3347, Ext. 100, or email mfiala@jcesc.org.

Courthouse deputy seizes possible heroin

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – A young woman who was about to enter the courthouse for a court appearance concerning OVI charges, ended up appearing for another charge. Harrison County Sheriff’s Deputy Nathan Stuckey spotted a “plunger” during a routine search of Angela Carter’s purse.

What he found were three loaded syringes, two of a brown liquid substance and one clear liquid.

Also found were an “abundance” of straws used for snorting and several containers of a powder residue. Stuckey said Carter had admitted the powder was meth. Stuckey stated the brown liquid appeared to be heroin but they won’t know for sure until results

are returned from the BCI lab.

Monday, Carter appeared in county court for her initial arraignment where attorney, Kevin Cox of New Philadelphia represented her. Assistant Prosecutor Jack Felgenhauer acknowledged Cox’s wish for his client to waive her time for a speedy trial and to re-address bond at a later date. Her bond had been set at $50,000 at her initial appearance.

Carter has an address listed as Leslie, Michigan, and Cox stated that her family wished to have her placed in a facility up there. Cox said her family is in the process of arranging a place for her in a treatment facility near Detroit. Judge Mark Beetham set up a pre-trial conference in the anticipation of a request that she be furloughed to a treatment facility on her next appearance.

Joseph McDonald was back in court and this time it looks like it could be the last before an actual trial he is asking for. The court acknowledged McDonald’s rejection of a plea offer of four years with credit for time served, according to his attorney, Steven Stickles.

McDonald is facing burglary, a felony of the second degree and grand theft, a third degree felony. Stickles addressed the court acknowledging the state’s offer and after Judge T. Shawn Hervey asked the defendant if he understood the circumstances, McDonald said he did but then began getting mouthy with Hervey, as he’s done in the past by talking over the judge. McDonald is upset over his wish for a change of venue not being granted and also some facts in his case, which he began mumbling about.

“Mr. McDonald, you get to have a trial, I’m not going to have a discussion with you,” Hervey calmly told him. Stickles then addressed the court again to clarify his client’s concerns, which include him telling Stickles he has not seen all the evidence, but he has received copies of the evidence. Also, the video that allegedly is of McDonald’s confession, he said he has not seen nor can Stickles provide him with one.

“However, legally and ethically, there is no grounds to file such a motion therefore, I can’t file it and I won’t file it,” Stickles told the court regarding his client’s wish for the change of venue.

Hervey reminded Stickles that this item has previously been addressed in court and said McDonald is free to address that point again if he wishes, but he also reminded Stickles that

ethically, he would not file frivolous motions, which Stickles agreed and acknowledged.

“That is correct your honor and I just wanted to clarify the record again with regards to all statements he made, he has received all of the discovery there is and it’s a frivolous motion,” Stickles told Hervey.

A trial date has been set for March 7 and 8 of this year, “as the first available date.”

Also, Frank Kopras, 46, of Jewett was arraigned on charges of unlawful sexual contact with a minor. Kopras, who appeared without representation did request a public defender be appointed. Not much detail was said regarding the alleged victim other than the fact that the person is under the age of 18.

The charge carries a felony of the third degree.

Kopras, whose bond was set in county court at $100,000 was set at $50,000 in the common pleas court by Judge T. Shawn Hervey. Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey Bruzzese stated that even though an F3 carries no presumption for jail time or against, he said it was likely that Kopras would serve time if convicted as a reason to set a substantial bond. He also called a statement Kopras had given to authorities at one time as, “incriminating.”

Addressing bond, Kopras spoke on his own behalf and said it was the first time he had been in trouble, has an automobile and would have no trouble appearing in court when needed.

His next court appearance is scheduled for Feb. 5.

Jeff. Co. Veterans Assoc. puts final plans on military wall

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor

SMITHFIELD - Plans to put the final addition of the military wall composed of a tile foundation and brick front, with names of veterans from the Civil War through the present time, were discussed at the Jefferson County Veterans Association meeting held Jan 2. The idea of at least seven years back was to pay tribute to those who served or are serving in any branch of the service. These thoughts and ideas for the wall were formulated when Ed Waldwan, a charter member who has moved away; Charlie and Paul Greene, members of the Piney Fork American Legion; and any member who had an idea to contribute was included in the project. Bill Smithye was commander at the time and they started by mapping out a plan for the brick wall that needed to come under the direction of the Jefferson County Commissioners.

To go back to the beginning, the Veterans Association was a dream of Eugene Omaits, a Korean War veteran. His dream was of bringing military equipment that once fought in battles or was used to keep the peace in the world back

to Friendship Park to be displayed.

With Waldman, Fred Straus, Fred McGee and Tony Phillippi, he saw the task to completion in 1997, five years after the military park was established.

The first piece of equipment was an Army tank. Then a Holitzer, the first tank used in Germany that could shoot a target 6 miles away.

The 105 tank came next, Then the push-pull plane, and a much larger plane and a Navy tank. Along about this time, a military brick wall idea was being tossed around. It sounded great for a military reminder to all of those who participated in the many wars. And they planned on it bringing in a bit of money for the upkeep of the area. They were deluged with orders and more than the usual amount of bricks were planned and provided for. Then came in more orders.

This is where the situation stands now. There were 96 other orders to make the wall add up to 888 bricks, much more than anticipated. Sheriff Fred Abdalla, a member of the JCVA, asked them to try for a bigger wall but space has run out where it is located. The veterans want to add the names of the inspired soldiers who did not get their names inscribed on bricks the first time but this will be the last addition. There is no more

room to extend after this last working project.

That was the wall situation at the January meeting. As soon as the weather clears, concrete will be flying and walls will be extended.

Along with more brick walls, the equipment on the military park was starting to look a bit tired and tarnished.

Along came the Brotherhood of Tankers of West Virginia in 2016 who sanded off the rust and tarnish. Then surprise of all surprise, along came U.S. Rep Bill Johnson who climbed aboard the tank with a sander and working goggles and proceeded to work for over five hours. He even asked Rick Parker, of the Brotherhood of Tankers if he was doing a good job.

Other business information that came out of the January meeting held at the Friendship Park office was a July picnic planned as it has been for the four past years. It will be for all veterans in the Jefferson and surrounding county areas.

Commander Frank Santa thanked the veterans for all they did to help the group in 2018 and said that he was honored to be their leader.

Tom McCain, who was recognized as the Veteran of the Year by the Jefferson County Veterans Association in Steubenville, and was named a trustee for the veterans association.

A breakfast for all veterans of the county was discussed as well.

Smithfield Senior Citizens Group heads into 45th year

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor

SMITHFIELD - Organizations may come into existence and then fade away over time but the Smithfield Senior Citizens group has survived for more than 44 years and is smaller in numbers than the large attendance coming together at the Buckeye Elementary School in 1974.

This was after Christmas party sponsored by the Smithfield Junior Woman's Club for the seniors in the community, it was decided that this was too special to drop and it started with Walter Rose as president. Madge Cullen was a president along the way. When the school closed this left them without a meeting place but they survived.

Today it is held in the Smithfield Presbyterian Church and there are not the large amounts of members but the 20 on the roll call carry on for the community and its residents.

They make donations to all organizations and service departments in the village, send get well and condolence cards and have local speakers and health institution members talking.

The Jan. 15 meeting had Bernice Francis opening with the pledge to the flag and a prayer by the Rev. Melody Essex. Francis read "The 10 Healthy Ways to Have a Great New Year. These were rules to

An organization heading into its 45th year in existence is still carrying on but on a smaller scale. The Smithfield Senior Citizens met for the January meeting at the Smithfield Presbyterian Church. The same officers as in 2018 were put back into office. From left, Carol Kourim, secretary/treasurer; and Bernice Francis, president.

staying well in 2019. This was in the Harrison News-Herald correspondence section and submitted by Esther McCoy. In regard to this members were asked if they received a flu shot.

Except for two who could not do so because of allergies, all had done so.

A get well card was sent to Gladys Brummet, who was in an auto accident, and Norma McHugh. An election was held as is done each new year and it was voted that the present officers would

remain. This is Francis, president; Peg Brown, vice president; and Kourim, secretary/treasurer.

Betty Ruttencutter will remain as the assistant program chairman and in charge of the refreshments.

Bingo was played and prizes were won by Kourim, Mary Pozzolli, Rita Boyce, Ruttencutter, Essex, McCoy and Gilbert Powell.

The next meeting will be Feb. 19, with Kourim and Ann Demski serving refreshments.
