Commissioners recognize Sexual Assault Awareness, Child Abuse Prevention Month SATURDAY, APRIL 7, 2018

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Two proclamations were approved at Wednesday’s Harrison County Commissioner’s meeting. e first was heard from Cathy Campbell, executive director of the Tri-County Help Center (TCHC) to announce April as Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM).

Along with Kathryn Arnold of TCHC, Campbell also introduced newly appointed Michele Helms, sexual assault program facilitator.

Helms read the actual proclamation, which reminds the public of sexual assaults widespread impact. “…Rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment harm our community, and statistics show one in five women and

one in 67 men will be raped at some point in their lives,” as read by Helms.

More statistics show, regarding the importance of preventing child sexual abuse, that one of every six boys and one out of four girls are expected to experience sexual assault by the age of 18. Also, young teens ages 12 to 17 were 2.5 times more likely to be a victim of sexual assault, whereas college sexual assault sees one of every five women and one in 16 men are experiencing sexual assault.

As part of the proclamation it asks for people to work together in order to better educate the community in preventing sexual assault, support survivors and to speak out against the attitudes and actions that are harmful and lead to sexual assault. “…We are calling on new partners and community members to help

expand sexual assault prevention efforts and ensure that the next generation fosters attitudes that support and promote healthy relationships, equality for all people, and respect for self and others…” Helms read.

Helms, who has also served as a rape crisis and domestic violence advocate, added that their services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, offer court advocacy, accept walk-ins and also offer “hospital accompaniment” for sexual assault victims.

“So, as first responders were there to provide comfort, support, education not only to the victim but also to family members,” Helms explained adding that they also accompany victims to court, as well as offer shelter and counseling services at TCHC.

Sheriff announces Drug Take-Back spring event Harrison County Sheriff Joe Myers is announcing, as spring time is here, in with the Drug conjunction Enforcement Agency (DEA), the 15th National Prescription Drug Take-Back spring event.

Locally, the event will be held on two separate days: April 21, and April 28, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Custer Pharmacy and Rite Aid Pharmacy in Cadiz and from 9 a.m. to noon, Neimayer Pharmacy in Scio.

Each location will accept any unwanted, unneeded, or expired prescription drugs for safe disposal.

Please no liquids.

"During the last three take-back events, over 380 pounds of unwanted or expired drugs were collected," Sheriff Myers stated. "Safe disposal of the drugs is important for numerous reasons."

According to Sheriff Myers the National Prescription Drug Take-Back event addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Many residents are not aware when medicines languish in home cabinets they are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in this country are at alarming rates, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses. Studies show that many abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including the home medicine cabinet.

In addition, many Americans do not know how to properly dispose of their unused medicine, often flushing them down the toilet or tossing them in the trash can - both potential safety and health hazards!

On Saturday, Oct. 28, 2017 the event brought in 912,305 lbs. (456 Tons) at close to 5,321 sites across the nation.

Marking the 14th National Prescription Take Back Day since September 2010, these events have altogether collected 9,015,668 pounds (4,508 tons) of prescription drugs.

"Prescription drug abuse is a problem everywhere. It is huge and this provides a great opportunity for folks around the county to help reduce the threat," Myers said. "I encourage everyone to clean out their medicine cabinets and make your home safe from drug theft and abuse." is will help reduce the addiction and overdose deaths plaguing this country and our county due to opioid medications.

Sheriff Myers wants to remind everyone that there is also a drop box in his lobby which is open 24 hours a day for anyone who need to drop off any other time.

New Athens addresses road maintenance, garbage pickup

By JD LONG

NEW ATHENS – Tuesday night the village of New Athens council met and one of the hot topics was future road maintenance. Council member Mark Arnold warned council that there are sinkholes in certain places and emphasized that they are not potholes but actual sinkholes.

Talk led to washbasins and culverts as well as regarding the main intersection at the light near where the municipal building sits. “…We can’t afford to fix this intersection,” Arnold told council.

Village Administrator Tosha Giesey

said they had planned to take photographs of the square then seek some kind of funding, whether it be via grants or loans. She said it was looking more like a loan situation and added that they have two out now but one was to be paid off next January. “is is a health and safety issue now because (somebody) may get run over on the sidewalk, there’s clear evidence of truck traffic…” Arnold said of the damage being done by trucks cutting corners when taking those turns. He described one curb that’s been broken “25 to 30 feet back.”

During Giesey’s report, she said two residents were set to water shutoff. She also touched on acquiring new water

meters calling it, “definitely an issue we have to touch base on.” Giesey felt there was no doubt that the village was losing money with their current meters with no disagreement from the others.

On the topic of police, the village is still in search of their own police officer. e Ohio State Highway Patrol, as well as the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office watch, or pass through the village intermittently but since last summer they have been without their own.

Council also addressed garbage pickup. is led to weight regulations and what other villages had set. Arnold said he’d learned that the village of Flushing had broken away from Kimble because their trucks were too large for their “back alleys.” He asked council if they should choose to go with another company themselves. He also noted that, even though they can’t place a weight limit on other streets, they could on village streets and suggested the village could do their own garbage pickup as he would have like to have seen some years ago.

at idea didn’t pan out but Arnold said with permission, would bring in someone for a presentation who serves at least one area village. e discussion then turned to weights and ordinances that address them. “e only thing we have to have is our weight limit, what we’re going to decide to go with,” Arnold said. He also said that residents would have to accept what type of truck under their weight restrictions, according to whatever ordinance was set. Council member Nancy Martin was concerned how residents would take to change but Arnold stated he was only trying to save residents money. “…And the village money,” he added.

Sterling bids farewell at engineer’s banquet HARRISON NEWS-HERALD | AREA

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Near the closing of the annual Harrison County Engineer’s Township banquet last Saturday, County Engineer Rob Sterling said he didn’t want to get emotional but that’s what happened as he bid farewell to all he has served for more than 20 years on the job. “is is probably the last of one of these functions I’ll be at,” Sterling began then joked,” to the great relief of most of you I’m sure.” He gave thanks to all who contributed over the years including all of the county commissioners now and before, his highway staff in the same manner as well as those who worked within the office.

“I’ve worked in a number of different places in my life but this is really the greatest group of people I’ve worked with…”

Sterling said as he held back his emotions to a standing ovation.

Others spoke on this night including Sen. Frank Hoagland, District 30 (R) and Representative Andy ompson, District 95 (R), who also was on one of his last legs of traversing the district as his term limit will end at the completion of 2018. Both spoke briefly with ompson touching on the $200,000 coming to the county via the Capital Budget Bill and another $400,000 connecting dollars for the fairgrounds and the new school.

Hoagland noted the suggestions and requests made to legislators stating that

everything requested for the county came through.

“I know there was nothing that we requested that didn’t get through,” Hoagland told the audience. He added that they were able to secure nearly three times the money “than you guys have in the last several years.”

Hoagland said he would like to work closely with the county and ompson as well, reminded everyone to relay county requests so they could be sent up through channels.

“Communications, mobility is the two main things we’re going to stay focused on with all the gas and oil projects that’s coming into this area, whether they’re tearing up the roads [or] tearing up our grounds we still need to maintain that focus,” Hoagland explained. ompson rose again to speak on orphan wells and the bill he’s pushing, which would “encourage people to report them to ODNR” where that organization would rank them as a priority list.

“We do have plenty of money with which to do things unfortunately the governor diverted about $62 million out of that fund last year, which would otherwise have gone to do these orphan wells,” ompson said. But, he added that 80 of those wells were scheduled to be addressed compared to only seven or eight that were done in each of the previous two years.

JD Marlatt, transportation administrator for District 11 then gave several updates on

projects ongoing around the county, including the Ohio 799 work. e estimated end date for those two are May 31 of this year with an estimated investment of over $2.4 million.

Marlatt repeated what he’d said during last Monday’s safety meeting in that a bonding company had taken over the projects because of certain issues with the contractor, who is no longer in “possession” of those projects.

He also said Ohio 9 would be closing for a resurfacing project for one week beginning April 9.

He said the closing would last from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. only. He said it would be closed for ¼ mile south of Service Garage Road.

Marlatt also noted the recent death of an ODOT worker killed near Youngstown and asked the public to be extra careful around work zones.

When he opened the floor to questions he said he could not “confirm or deny” that the company on the 799 projects were being fined, but stated that ODOT could levy liquidated damages once a contractor passed their deadline.

“It’s unfortunate the project has lingered on as long as it has,” Marlatt said stating that ODOT did everything they could to get the project completed on time.

Trustee of Nottingham Township Jon Jones then asked why there was no compensation to the township or counties for the rerouting of traffic. Jones said that ODOT has “done nothing” after asking them to

repair some of his township roads. Marlatt responded by stating that roads are video taped under the circumstances of being a detoured route.

Jones recommended that township trustees should be included because of the length of the detour and fear that people won’t follow the signs, which he accused ODOT workers of using township roads as their own detour. Jones

suggested using that fine money to repair the roads used for detours.

Marlatt said he would look at who is actually involved in their pre-construction meetings and see if involving trustees into these meetings could be a possibility.

Also, ODOT’s Deputy Director for District 11 Roxanne Kane stated that the Adena bridge was scheduled to

finally open this week. She said ODOT was very aware of how critical that bridge was to reopening for emergency vehicles, and did their best to get it open as soon as possible.

And not to be missed, Sterling and Kane also thanked Karen Walton for the fabulous dinner she and her staff prepared, which was held at Sally Buffalo’s Wallace Lodge.

Jewett stresses property cleanup, talks of forgotten junction project

JEWETT – Wednesday, Mayor Dwight Busby stated emphatically that the village of Jewett was going to move to clean up properties that are cluttered with trash and un-

kept. He said they would do what they had to do to get these properties cleaned up.

“And we don’t care who they are,” Busby said. One house in particular that was singled out is located at 43085 Jewett Scio Road. It was noted that the village could not locate the

owner of the house but now have and it was indicated to be a bank. Council members stated that it is now in the hands of the Harrison County Health Department and things should be moving along with that now. e house has a large tree in front of it and some anonymous

individual placed a homemade sign that reads: “Rats” on it. But to the area residents it’s not very funny as some said the house has been in disrepair for several years now.

Busby also noted more activity in the park with the parking lot becoming muddy and calling it “atrocious.” He said the lot was basically spotted with gravel for the past 20 years or so.

He was quoted a price for covering the entire lot as $1,500 but no action was taken at this time.

Another subject briefly noted

by Village Solicitor Jenna Hokes was the long forgotten Jewett Junction project. e Junction idea once pushed has not been in the news, at least for more

than a year.

“It’s not even a rumor anymore,” Busby said after council member Rick Meneely asked if anyone had any news but only received bits of laughter. Hokes stated that a hearing took place on March 8 of this year regarding jointly owned property but no agreement was reached at that hearing among the landowners.

Hokes stated that the judge then ordered a sale of the property in question where it was also noted that no one from the Jewett Junction group showed up at that hearing.

Hokes also stated that “Jewett Junction” failed to produce the money for some of the land that was up for sale.

“What I’m saying is that they were relying on Jewett Junction to show up,” Hokes began explaining, “Jewett Junction has not showed up, they did not come up with the money, they have not been in contact with any of the attorneys.”

Hokes explained further that two landowners wanted to sell but could not come to an agreement with the third party and the judge decided that they’ve had enough time with this issue.

Hokes, who is not involved in that case, stated that the Jewett Junction was not necessarily dead, as the Jewett Junction could actually buy the property via auction but as of now, they have not been heard from.

Jewett plans town hall on water line project HARRISON NEWS-HERALD | AREA

Saturday, April 7, 2018

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

JEWETT – Last month Bob Allen from E.L. Robinson engineering firm presented to the Jewett council the cost along with grants and loans associated with a colossal water line project the village is facing.

Wednesday, as Allen left it up to council to decide how far and deep they want to delve into the project, Mayor Dwight Busby stated they had to decide now what they wanted to do if they were going to make the deadline for certain grant applications.

Allen described the cost last month per resident, per month as “pretty significant.� Council member Paul Prevot raised the possibility of an additional tax levy stating it was one angle they did not discuss at the last meeting. But he was reminded that it had been discussed some at a previous meeting.

Busby then brought up the idea of holding a town hall meeting giving the community a chance to ask questions and voice their opinions, though some were skeptical that many would attend such a meeting.

Council member Terry Cawthorn said he felt the village didn’t have much of a choice with replacing the water lines, as they would just get worse as time went on. “And it’s going to cost more,â€? he added. Busby noted the importance of a town hall meeting regardless of community attendance, it still had to be done. Busby reminded council that even if they apply for those grants on time, which he said one deadline was for the end of May, they could still back out of the project at any time. î “e question then was at what cost would the village then owe the engineering firm assisting the village.

Clerk of Water and Public

Aairs Rhonda Harris raised the point of who would vote for a levy if the village only replaced half the lines? But others remarked that it would not be in the village’s best interest to only do a partial project. “I would say if you’re going to do the levy you do the whole thing,â€? Prevot said to the other’s approval. Council member Dennis Hirschbach noted that doing a partial project would cause the village to miss out on other grants, as some are a onetime thing.

A high end cost per month was said to be an increase of around $32 per month for residents and as little as $16 to $18 per month at the low end for an approximate range. Reached later by phone, Allen stated that a meeting with various funding agencies would be beneficial for understanding exactly what the village was facing as far as costs were concerned, and what could be contributed via those grants.

Prevot thought the costs, when adding in normal sewage costs, was too much of a jump without additional funding if the village were to do the entire project. But Busby pointed out that even with a levy passing the village wouldn’t see that additional money for two years.

Council member Bo Bailie suggested if they were to have a town hall meeting to have it before deciding anything, as opposed to making some of the decisions then telling the residents what they have decided.

Harris oered to go door to door in notifying residents of the meeting and asking if it would help. î “en discussion turned to sending out letters to notify residents and which avenue would be more helpful.

Council eventually decided to seek additional help to hopefully place the letters in resident’s mailboxes.

SMITHFIELD

By Esther McCoy Baseball season started March 29 with a rainout for the Pittsburgh Pirates and another the day after that, but they were not as unlucky as those at the Yankee and Mets stadiums recently. ere was a great deal of snow and television showed some of the players on the field in their practice gear throwing snowballs and building snowmen.

And this is spring!

Cleveland Indians fans in some parts of Ohio, including Steubenville and Pennsylvania, were treated to a free smiley face cookie if they appeared in one of their restaurants wearing an Indians baseball cap or clothing on April 6. I didn't get the announcement early enough to get it in last week's news. ere might have been a rush on those tasty cookies if so. ose cookies are really great and a win on opening day would be really sweet for my husband and all those Indian fans.

I have one other thing to write about baseball and that is a book written in 1995 called "Twin Killing: e Bill Mazeroski Story"

by John T. Bird. Howard McClure gave it to me and it only took me 1 1/2 days to read 316 pages. ere were stories from 19 Pirates players during the Maz era of 17 seasons and from several coaches as well. e end chapter was by Bill himself. A twin killing is baseball parlance, and all you sports fans know this is a double play. Maz was the greatest pivot man to ever turn a double play and no other had approached his records for double plays in one season, 161 in 1966 or in a career 1,706 up through his career that ended in 1972. It is told in the book that he was the greatest fielder to play second base; possibly the best fielder ever. And to think that he came to the Pirates with a small fielders glove that was held together by wire and shoe strings, it is told.

It was exciting several weeks ago to see Chaz Roe, a great-nephew of Maz, from his sister, Mary Lou doing relief pitching in a baseball game on television. Bill's sister lived in Smithfield in the late 1960's and early 1970's and having access to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette each day, I would cut out anything that mentioned her brother and give it to her. She is such a wonderful and appreciative lady. Okay, now back to Chaz; he is the son of Don Roe who was a great baseball player and football player with Buckeye North and went on to a university in Kentucky. Chaz is now playing with Tampa Bay and it is nice to know that those baseball roots were from Tiltonsville for Maz and Smithfield for Chaz.

Having been very involved in writing food columns and conducting baking and cooking contests in a past life, so to speak, I am interested in getting kids into the kitchen at an early age. When they go off to college or away from home with no idea how to make a pot of chili, except from a can, it isn't good. e Jefferson County 4-H Extension has held an Iron Chef Cooking and Baking Contest for at least 10 years and this year I am proud to announce the winners, some from around Smithfield, Tiltonsville. New Alexandria.

Harrisville, Amsterdam, Dillonvale and

Mount Pleasant. ere were two classes of the same categories and one had three categories as there were so many entries: Appetizers-first Lucky Leaf Livestock with vegetable sushi; and second, Warren Ridge Wranglers, with polish stuffed eggs.

Appetizers-first, Cross Creek Tomahawks, fusion family tree; and second, Broken Fences, sauerkraut bratwurst balls with a side of rotkohi. Main dishesCountry Rangers, Italian sausage tortellini and second, Buckeye Variety Livestock/Broken Fences teams together, taco spaghetti.

Main dish- first, Town and Country, Yorkshire pudding; and second, Warren Ridge Wranglers, meatball lasagna. Desserts, there were three categories here. 1st, Country Classics, macaroons; second, Friends and Neighbors, yakgwa, and this is spelled right; and third, Windy Ridge, apple shortbread pie.

Dessert: first, Friends and Neighbors, macaroons and this is not spelled wrong. It is a type of French meringue cookie that took about five tries to get it to where the members wanted them to be; second, Liberty Guys and Gays, English trifle. Desserts- first Country Classics, crepes; second, 4-H Varieties, mango royale. How do those sound coming from members from 8 through 18-years old? e Jefferson Soil and Water Conservation District partnered with the Harrison Soil and Water Conservation District for accepting all types of tree orders from homeowners and farmers. e payments are coordinated through the Harrison office in Cadiz but the tree pickup will be at both the Jefferson and Harrison county offices. e Smithfield American Legion Post 396 is holding a spaghetti dinner at the legion home on April 8, Sunday, starting at 11 a.m. ey have been busy with events throughout the new year.

Look at the Past

Howard Taft arrives in Cadiz

The scene was Lincoln Avenue in Cadiz near the site of the railroad depot. The star was William Howard Taft, soon to be elected President of the United States and later to serve as Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Taft arrived on the Cadiz Branch, with the larger than usual engine having difficulty with the track. It was heavier and wider than the standard locomotive and spread the track as the seven miles were traveled. Taft was taken from the station to the courthouse, where a huge crowd was waiting. It is interesting to note that even though they could not vote, women made up at least half of the audience. In the car, with the president-to-be in the right rear seat, were secret servicemen. The driver of the right wheel drive Buick was Emerson Long of Cadiz. Standing at the curb from left, were Al Hatton of Cadiz, James McKean of Bowerston and E.M. Long of Cadiz, whose firm had completed the building of the courthouse better than a decade before. From Harrison News Herald "A look at the past" Thursday, Sept. 1, 1988.

Mayor’s Corner Greetings, I’m almost afraid to say it, but could it be spring? It seems like this winter has been long, cold, icy, rainy, and sleety. Keep in mind that April showers bring May flowers and it will get warm eventually.

I would like to congratulate the Cadiz Business Association, and everyone involved, on a highly successful Cadiz Recognition Banquet. e banquet committee put together another enjoyable evening.

Congratulations again to the individuals, organizations and businesses that were honored.

Scott Porter, manager of Sally Buffalo Park, tells me that April 1 was the beginning of seasonal camping. He would also like to

remind everyone to please obey speed limits at the park, with the additional traffic in and out.

We all need to be careful and avoid any accidents. e police department would like to remind motorists that while driving in Sally Buffalo Park to obey all traffic laws. e speed limit is 15 MPH throughout the park, and is enforced. Extra caution should always be used around the park for walkers, little league baseball fields, girls softball fields, and also around the ice cream stand especially now that the weather is getting warm and there is more activity in those areas.

It’s that time of year again to start sprucing up our yards.

Harrison shows presence in 2018 Bellaire Relays; fares well at Martins Ferry

Andrew Clelland (2-0) delivers to the plate in the first of two games last weekend for the Huskies.

The sophomore, who has registered 14 strikeouts through two starts, led Harrison to an 8-0 victory over the Ridgewood Generals

BELLAIRE - All in all it wasn't the best outing for the Huskies, but the team let their presence be known, this past Saturday as the 2018 Bellaire Relays opened.

Looking good for the Huskies were Jasmine Arnold who won the event's 3200 meter run at a time of 12:26.15 in the girls competition.

For the boys, Harrison Central was fourth in the team races and got 10 team point from Sam McClelland who won the 800 meters with a time of 2:08.31, while teammate Eric Leech finished just 3 seconds behind McClleland. Tyler West cleaned up in the high jump to take another meet 1st place using speed and ability to claim the high jump with a jump of 5 feet 10 inches.

On Monday night Harrison Central was in Martins Ferry for the Martins Ferry Relays. Another showing for the Huskies, as the boys finished overall with 48 points. Tyler West again showed off his skills as he cleaned up on the high jump with a record breaking 6.00.0 jump. Harrison’s Trenton McDonald also set a record when he erased Harrison's

Warriors defeat Bandits for championship

Logan Tonkovich (14) zones in on a pitch in the second game of Harrison’s doubleheader last weekend in Coshocton County. A Tonkovich two-run homerun helped to blow the first game open against the hosting Ridgewood Generals.

Harrison Central split tridoubleheader at Ridgewood

By D.J. WATSON Nh Sports Writer

WEST LAFAYETTE – We are two weeks into the season, and the Harrison Central baseball team’s record sits at just 2-1. For those not particularly familiar with the high school baseball season, there is something considerably wrong with that sentence. In a normal (maybe more dry) year, many teams would be approaching the midway point on their regular season schedule by now.

However, Harrison and many teams around the valley, are nowhere near that mark coming into this weekend. While the Huskies were able to get two games in last weekend, the first an 8-0 victory over the hosting Ridgewood Generals, and the other a 2-0 defeat at the hands of the hometown rival Edison Wildcats; Mother Nature has still swallowed up six games of the Huskies 2018 slate. e only other matchup the Huskies have under their belt this season is a 6-3 triumph over Buckeye Local back on March 26. Even if the weather isn’t in

midseason form, Huskies pitcher Andrew Clelland certainly appears to be. e lengthy sophomore tossed a complete game shutout last weekend against the Generals, sitting down nine batters on his way to his second mound victory of the season. With the Huskies up 1-0 in the top half of the third, a Logan Tonkovich bomb over the left field fence made it 3-0 with one swing of the bat. Harrison added five more runs in the top of the sixth, and with that kind of cushion head coach Mike Valesko was comfortable letting Clelland finish out the opening game of the triple bill. Aside from Tonkovich’s third inning blast, the Huskies combined for five hits and five RBI’s as a team.

J.R. Heavilin worked three different dish appearances into free passes, two of which ended with a run scored. Two registered errors proved costly for a Generals squad who dressed a number of underclassmen.

In the second game the Huskies bats weren’t quite as lively, and Edison ace Tristan

Haught’s 13 strikeouts had a lot to do with that. Expected to be one of the toughest pitchers the Huskies will face all year, Haught only surrendered two hits and four baserunners in total. Much like Clelland rode out an early lead against the Generals, Haught returned the favor after the Wildcats took a 2-0 lead in the top half of the first inning. Huskies pitcher J.R. Heavilin recovered to fan seven Cat batters in six innings of work, holding the co-visitors scoreless aside from the first inning double that produced the game’s only offense. With a limited number of Harrison players on the base-paths, Haught was able to pretty much glide to victory without much of a threat from the Harrison dugout. e Huskies are hoping to be back on the diamond this coming Monday with a trip to meet Buckeye Eight South rival St.Clairsville at Memorial Park.

With limited action so far this year, every game will carry extra weight in terms of OVAC 4A and Buckeye Eight Championship positioning.

On Sunday the shadows were scarce as again neither one could avoid recognition, as they were chosen as part of the Times Leader's All-2018 Basketball Team. Arbaugh who turned in his last season performance as a Husky, averaged 17 points and six rebounds a game. He was one of the Buckeye 8 selections, All-OVAC, All-Eastern District

and District V. Arbaugh will also play in this week's OVAC AllStar Game.

“Caden was our leader and did everything for us,” said head basketball coach Justin Clifford.

“He had a very successful year and so did our team because of it.”

Mitchell, only a freshman, used the 2018 season to show that ability comes with practice , regardless the grade. He, as teammate Arbaugh, was a team leader in performance. Mitchell also average 17 points a game, and used a deceptive eye to dish five assists this season. His honors included an All AllEastern District, All-OVAC, Buckeye 8 and District V. “Kobe is a talented player but he is mature beyond his years,” Clifford said. “He had a really good year and we're excited to have him back for four more years.”

Area youth encouraged to learn about hunting

By ESTHER MCCOY Nh Contributor

JEWETT - Interested young turkey hunters, up to 17-yearsold, will have an opportunity to learn about youth turkey hunting at the Jewett-Scio Sportsman's Club at 2 p.m. on April 15. Termed a "Jake's Day," according to James ompson of the Harrison Veterans Service Commission, both boys and girls will have an opportunity to learn about hunting the birds

on the two official hunting days of April 21 and 22. "It will be a day of instruction for any youth old enough to be interested in getting one turkey, the limit per each of the two days," he said. "e Sportsman's Club and "Harrison Ghost Gobblers," the name of the local chapter of the National Wildlife Turkey Federation, will be provided with last minute hunting tips and an understanding of the rules of hunting and there have been some youth as young as 8years-old interested in hunting

for the birds," ompson related. e National Turkey Federation brought back the turkey population in eastern Ohio and this is the seventh year to be observed, it was noted.

Although there are young hunter's groups in other counties, with the Jefferson County chapter called he Tree Hangers, youth from other counties can attend. “We encourage any young turkey hunter to come out and get the correct information on hunting," he said.

Refreshments will be provided as well.

Cadiz Presbyterian announces course: Return of the Prodigal Son e Presbyterian Church of Cadiz is pleased to announce an exciting new course being offered entitled e Return of the Prodigal Son through the works of Rembrandt.

McIntyre pleads guilty in plea agreement

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – In a bit of a surprise the case of Earnest McIntyre came to an abrupt end Tuesday as he and Public Defender C. Adrian Pincola reached a plea agreement with the County Harrison Prosecutor’s Office.

Originally scheduled as a pre-trial hearing the court would now hear the guilty plea involving two felony counts: sexual battery (F-2) and gross sexual imposition (F-3) against a young child from the soft spoken McIntyre where the court wasn’t always sure he understood the proceedings.

Previously, McIntyre was ruled competent to stand trial after an evaluation. In a subsequent hearing McIntyre, at times, stated he did not understand why he was being charged.

Judge T. Shawn Hervey read the possible penalties as up to eight years for the first count and five years for the second. Possible fines could

add up to $25,000 for both.

Hervey also explained that the sentences would be served concurrently and not Hervey consecutively. ordered an Ohio Risk Assessment (ORAS) and ordered him to be held without bond but receive credit for time served against his sentence, which was to be handed down at a later date.

Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey Bruzzese informed the court that representatives of the victim were present in court and statements by them could be heard at the time of sentencing. Bruzzese also said that they approved of the plea agreement. another case, In Christopher Scheutzow, 22, of Freeport once again found himself back in a He was courtroom. originally charged and sentenced for unlawful sexual conduct with a minor, a felony of the fourth degree and a Tier II sex offense. But two Community Based Control (CBC) violations later and now another one, will

Scheutzow faces his probation being extended for up to five years as well as local jail time among other sanctions. e notice hearing, in which Scheutzow appeared an attorney, without allowed Hervey to enter a denial of said violations as Scheutzow had asked for an attorney.

Bruzzese expressed concern over Horvath’s inability to follow rules addressed to him and asked for a monetary bond.

Scheutzow spoke regarding bond and stated he needed to “grow up and be a man” and told Hervey he would show up on time and not be any more trouble if released on his own recognizance.

Hervey, though, reminded the defendant that this was his second felony case and that “words mean only what the actions behind them prove” and that he’d heard those words before.

Hervey then set bond at $25,000.

Hervey also entered a denial on Horvath’s behalf as he also requested public representation. Bruzzese repeated the same concerns for Horvath to follow rules as he did for Scheutzow and stated that Horvath had admitted to using the two

drugs “to the probation department.” He also asked the court to impose a monetary bond.

Horvath said in his defense of being released on his own recognizance that he was sick and tired of being sick and tired. But Hervey noted Scheutzow’s words in that he’d also heard those words from him before as well, and set bond at $25,000.
