Towers go up to bring Internet to rural residents SATURDAY, JULY 28, 2018

NEW ATHENS – Talk of Internet availability for rural Harrison County residents moves one step closer with the raising of the first two towers.

Imperial Networks, which is manned

by Larry Bertolino and backed by local farmer and entrepreneur James Coffelt have now raised two of the projected four towers they planned since the start of this endeavor. e first tower to go up was early morning Wednesday near Tappan Lake. Once that was secured, Bowers

Contracting crane service rolled along and into New Athens and the second tower was erected at e Lodge, owned

by Coffelt. Damian Kovarik’s crew (Kovarik Excavating & Hauling LLC) did the securing of four bolts on the three legs already cemented five feet deep into a large block of concrete.

“He’s been a big team player,” Bertolino said of Kovarik’s work.

Bertolino, who operates myLocalPCpro in Cadiz said the progression in plans has gone beyond expectations. And those expectations include providing Internet service for county residents that have been left out

in the cold while the main Internet providers load up inside the villages and obvious areas.

“We’re the Robin Hood in the woods,” he said of the operation. “is is going way better than initially thought,” Bertolino, whose wife Katie is also a partner in this and has been right there every step of the way, said while throwing out excited words he’s used before such as “game changing,” as being a phenomenal addition to Harrison County.

He gushed at what he called countless

SHERRODSVILLE – Merely one year after moving into the former lodge at Atwood Lake, e Bluffs, which is a rehabilitation center, has picked up quite a bit of steam and is now heading towards full capacity. e Bluffs is one of four rehab campuses (others are in Texas, Massachusetts and Mississippi) as part of the Addiction Campuses. Last Friday, Congressman Bill Johnson (R-District 6) visited the Sherrodsville campus and touted it as a muchneeded place to combat the ever present opioid wave of addiction, not to mention alcohol abuse.

“Very impressive,” Johnson told the throng of media and staff. “We need more facilities like this.

I’ve said many, many times you know, the addiction crisis that we have in America is not something we’re going to be able to legislate our way out of or arrest or incarcerate our way out of. We’re going to have to lead people out of that dark place and back in to regaining their self confidence, their integrity, their feeling of accomplishment and a belief that they can live a life of addiction free.”

Johnson continued to rave about the operation calling it “comprehensive from start to finish.” He said what impressed him the most was that it was a

privately funded operation and not a Washingtonbased governmental program where people had to wait to receive help.

“Your company saw a need and you went out and you made it happen and that’s very, very encouraging,” Johnson told everyone. When asked about public-private partnerships Johnson explained they were “doing some of that.” He said $4 billion in federal funds had already been contributed towards the opioid epidemic with 57 pieces of legislation passed just three weeks ago, according to him.

He said that legislation was geared specifically towards opioid addiction with three bills he introduced “that was a part of that.” He said one was to recognize “organizations and institutions” for teaching health care providers about substance abuse and handling “pain management without the use of opioids.” He also spoke of Telehealth and telemedicine, which he acknowledged was not in this area. According to the National Telehealth Policy Resource Center’s website (www.cchpca.org): “Telehealth is a collection of means or methods for enhancing healthcare, public health and health education delivery and support using telecommunications technologies.”

He called “peer specialists” a great help, which he also acknowledged that e Bluffs practices. ese

specialists are people who have gone through their own pain and recovered from addiction and are now helping others who are enrolled in the program they once were in.

Karson Neal is one of those specialists who is now the alumni coordinator and talked of how proud he was to be doing what he, not only is doing but where. Neal is from Washington state and after recovering from addiction found himself homeless for several days, and at his own choice because of certain circumstances, but it didn’t break him.

“To be honest when you’re in it,” Neal said referring to addiction, “it feels 100 percent like a disease and I had to learn about that. But after about a year or so, it starts feeling like a choice again.” Neal has been sober for nearly three years now.

Johnson does tout the public-private partnership and said he and some of his colleagues have attempted to obtain grants for treatment programs that work. He said this along with faith-based treatment centers can be very effective as well, which have been included in those attempts seeking grants.

“Because there’s a heart element to this,” Johnson began explaining. “You know, we can change a

SCIO – Council for the village of Scio made it official when they approved to sign on with W.E. Quicksall & Associates’ engineering firm. Don Quicksall addressed council for the second time in a month and provided a few more updates concerning the village’s major waterline project.

Quicksall said he would return upon the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) setting new rules for the next funding cycle, which they have. His firm prepared a mock application “to see if we can get you the most points and how will we best get those points for you.”

Receiving grants such as this is based on a village accumulating points based on certain criteria and Quicksall told council they have a shot at the first 58 points with many more out there that “we have no control over,” for which they also have a chance at.

Quicksall explained that some criteria they just don’t have control over with one being a District Priority Rating, for example.

“And so we have no control, can’t put any costs on that or getting points for it,” he told council adding that last year’s points cutoff was at 64. “So at 58 that’s pretty good,” he said referring to the village’s possible points with 20 more still out there. He said Village Administrator Jason Tubaugh was also assisting with letters to the EPA, low to moderate income surveys and other conditions that would help accumulate points.

“One thing we wish we could get more points for was the age and condition of the system,” Quicksall told them while acknowledging how old it is (40 years) stated that OPWC needs documentation of when it was actually built.

“Otherwise, if you don’t have that they take the term of the current mayor and say that’s the age…” Quicksall told them to the astonishment of council.

Clerk Treasurer Trish Copeland jokingly asked if they could just take her age, referring to Mayor, Michelle Carpenter instead, but after the

“In about two to three weeks,” Bertolino said. Connectivity and speed testing is the next step. “We need to make sure the people are getting the speed they signed up for.” Once the rollout begins with the first 150 subscribers being tested around mid-August, then the service would begin for everyone else.

“It will be like a mini-TV station without the media,” he said with a grin. Bertolino encourages interested parties to search on Facebook for “Imperial Networks/Ohio” for updates and information.

poverty guidelines.” Knight told the board children three to 18 were being targeted for the program with each eligible recipient receiving the $125 voucher.

Knight said that last year 502 children were served with 650 served the year before that and in 2015, it was 520. She said they were estimating between 500 to 600 to be served this year.

Knight said they began receiving applications on Monday with 120 in so far but, she said that was per family and not per child.

“We don’t have a per child count yet,” she told the board. “The turnaround time is very short,” she said regarding the Friday deadline. “Some of the

vouchers will be handed out at Harrison Hills School event.” She further explained that that is one reason for the short turnaround time with eligibility still to be determined on some of their applications.

Other criteria for eligibility according to a handout provided by Knight includes any fulltime student 19 years of age that is in a secondary school (high school) “and resides in the home of an eligible assistance group.”

Only these following items are to be purchased: Clothing, shoes, boots, coats, undergarments, socks, winter hats and gloves. The vouchers must be used by Aug. 31, and any that are attempted to be redeemed

after Aug. 31 “will be refused

by Boscovs. Also, “lost or misplaced vouchers will not be replaced.”

Knight explained that the funding for the clothing program comes from their TANAF (Temporary Assistance For Needy Families).

“It is a federal program that comes to the state,” Knight said.

Also, Commissioner Paul Coffland threw out some reminders of the Freeport Fair being this Friday and Saturday, followed by Tippecanoe (Aug. 4) and Adena’s Heritage Days on Aug. 10, as well as the Scio Street Fair, which begins on Aug. 8 and runs through the weekend.

IBEW apprentices earn Har. Co. Democrats enjoy hog roast degrees through EGCC HARRISON NEWS-HERALD | AREA

Saturday, July 28, 2018

anks to a unique partnership between a local union and Eastern Gateway Community College, nine students finished a five-year apprenticeship program and earned an associate degree at the same time. e International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local Union #246 and the Steubenville Division of the National Electrical Association Contractors celebrated the apprentices’ graduation with a dinner and ceremony on May 19. e celebration marks the completion of more than 8,000 hours of on-the-job training, accompanied by 1,000 hours of classroom training during the last five years. is is the eighth group of inside wiremen to complete the training and also receive an associate degree of Technical Studies in Electrical Trades Technology.

Christina Wanat, M.Ed., interim vice president of student affairs, said Eastern Gateway accepts IBEW Local Union #246 apprentices nearly every year. Under EGCC's program, it is mandatory for apprentices to earn their associate degree.

is, in turn, opens up more opportunities for continuing education.

Students in the five-year program are all union electricians and only a certain number of participants are accepted, said Christy Hardwick, an administrative assistant at IBEW #246. e program is approved through the state of Ohio.

Students attend night classes at the IBEW training center and receive up to 47 credits through EGCC toward their associate degree. anks to the program, participants are able to move to journeyman status, obtain their associate degree, do their apprenticeships, receive onthe job training, and go through multiple certification processes all at the same time.

Wanat said, "Along with their IBEW training, it prepares them for the workforce and, if they wanted to continue on with their education, they would already have an associate degree so they can go on to earn their bachelor's degree."

After they successfully complete the program, students can decide on their own if they want to continue

on to earn a bachelor's or master's degree. e IBEW Local Union #246 includes all of Jefferson, Columbiana and Harrison counties in Ohio; parts of Carroll County, Ohio; and all of Brooke and Hancock in West counties Virginia. e graduating apprentices received certificates of completion from the U.S. Department of Labor and NJATC. State Rep. Jack Cera also presented certificates to the apprentices.

Joshuah Hardwick and Matthew McEndree received the John Habash Award for Outstanding Apprentice. is award is named in honor of long-time apprentice instructor and IBEW leader John Habash of Steubenville. e award is based on excellence in classroom training, leadership and onthe-job performance.

Hardwick and McEndree , along with other outstanding apprentices will attend a summer session in Ann Arbor, Mich. this summer to further their knowledge of the electrical construction industry.

SCIO - On Sunday, July 22, at the Scio Volunteer Fire Department, the county party hosted a luncheon of fresh pork, potato salad, baked beans, applesauce, and a wide variety of desserts.

system is 40 years old.

He said there are other options as part of the application, which the village does have control over with one being what he called “leveraging ratio.” is has to do with the amount of revenue the village is willing to shell out. Quicksall said according to his reviews the village was in for 11 percent. If they up it to 25 percent that would add three additional points as opposed to just one for the 11 percent contribution.

He told council that 25 percent would come to $53,550 and reminded council they were shooting for a 50/50 split. He said a 100 percent grant would lead to fewer points for the village. But he added that the more loan sought would lead to more points, which could be as much as 10 points in return for a 100 percent loan, “which you

don’t want to do.” He told council that his engineers put together a 50/50 package split for Scio that would bring in eight points.

Quicksall said the plan was to seek ARC funds as well for a local loan and local share, which wasn’t until February.

In other items shared, Copeland emphasized that any mail directed towards village council such as water bills are to continue being placed at 306 Main Street in Scio. Council is in the midst of moving their headquarters to the new location at the former PNC Bank, which should occur within weeks.

Also, the village is working on a new website as they aim to break away from its current form. e wish is to update it from its old state so more than one person can operate the site.

Foster said everyone is on a case-by-case basis but a 30-day stay is the norm, though, they’ve had people stay as long as one year. Now, several staff work in their Alumni Program, as former patients themselves and give back what they’ve learned in order to help others recover.

Hopedale churches team up for Vacation Bible School HOPEDALE Ocean Commotion Vacation Bible School was a combined ministerial eort of both Hopedale United Methodist Church and Hopedale Presbyterian Church. Every evening from 6 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. nearly 20 children attended vacation bible school and were able to participate in crafts, activities, snacks, and a lesson taught from î “e Bible.

Each night the kids learned from the story of Noah and the Ark about how to stand firm in their faith, to trust in God always, and to always give thanks to God for everything.

A collection was taken during the week. With the combined efforts of all who donated including: the children, some businesses, some extra generous parents, and both the Hopedale

Methodist and Hopedale Presbyterian Churches were able to raise roughly $1,150 for the Harrison Hills Schools Blessing In A Backpack Program.

Collections far surpassed the goal of $200 and therefore Pastor Dave Quillen entertained the children by allowing them to throw “sea foam� at him, that being blue whipped cream with gold fish crackers.

Harrison County Genealogical and Historical Societies hold picnic The Harrison County Genealogical and Historical Societies held their annual picnic on Monday, July 23, at 6 p.m. at the Vineyard 22 Winery in Cadiz with 22 members and guest present.

The groups always invite members of the Moravian Trail DAR to the event.

HCGS President Susan Adams welcomed everyone and extended grace. The group enjoyed a wonderful pot luck/covered dish dinner.

The program for the evening was "Show and Tell" with guest bringing an item to show and a story to tell about the item. Before the program Adams shared with the group about several nice donations that had been received by the societies including a cobblers table that had been made by E. M. Long. Carole Spiker invited all the attendees to the 130th Dickerson Church Reunion that is always held the second Sunday in August at 2 p.m. It is the only service held at the historic church just outside Cadiz. The business meeting will be at 2 p.m. followed by any young people attending ringing the old bell calling everyone to worship. Mrs. Angela Ripley will open the worship service by playing her flute, Rev. Tim Monteith of Scott UM Church will bring the meditation and Peggy Poole and Terry Galey will lead in some old hymns. Cake and punch will be served after the service. Bernadine Sliva brought a Scio Pottery mold that her son Randy found at a yard sale. She had in the mold one of the white bowls from her collection that would have been made in the mold. Linda Morgan told the group about a panoramic picture that came to the Puskarich Public Library from Delaware County of a "Cadiz Reunion" about 1951. Linda went through

old Freeport Press micro film until she found a write-up about that picture that listed the names of the attendees.

Here it was a reunion of Harrison County people who had relocated to Delaware County, Ohio. That picture has been donated to the HCHS with the article.

Marcia Rogers Carter brought an "Ever-ready candle" that had been her mother's that Dale Davis found in the attic of the home he now owns that had belongs to John and Frances Rogers. It takes 2-C batteries but so far they haven't been able to find a light bulb for it. The candle was made about 1932. Judy Cairns shared information about a book in their family "Biographical Record of Harrison and Carroll County Ohio by J. H. Beers & Co" from 1891. She had pictures to show from her phone.

Rena Glover Goss brought a glass tumbler covered with pictures from a set of eight that had been a 1958 Safety Award for no loss time accidents from Hanna Consolidated Coal that had been given to her father. Bob Glover shared a 1961 certificate from HannaConsolidated Coal issued to his father for no accidents.

He also had a zippo lighter from 1950 and a belt buckle from 1976 that were safety awards his father received.

He told the group that one year right after WWII the crews received a lantern with red and green lights, however they were made in Japan so most of the guys just left them in the parking lot. Bill Spiker brought a "hydrant wrench" that the local machinist Bill Yonally made for each of the retiring fire department chiefs. It was in a pentagonal shape to loosen a pentagonal nut at the top of the hydrant.

Yonally made it out of steel and then chrome plated the

wrench. Larry Goss brought a family photo that had his grandmother Kate (Piatt) as part of the group. The back of the photo looked blank, however, he scanned it and used a computer program to enhance the picture which revealed everyone's identity.

He went on to tell the story of how his family moved from Noble County, Ohio to Iowa. Kelley Snodgrass Michelli brought one of the bricks that has recently been dug up on E Market St. She shared pictures of when the bricks were being placed on E Market St in the early 1900's and of the work of removing them this summer. Bob Glover informed the group that as a young man, his father had worked on a crew laying the bricks on "the brick road" out past the school. Sue Adams brought the "Final Fusee" annual from 1959 from the old Holloway High School. She has it and seven other annuals that she bought at an auction that she will be taking to the Puskarich Public Library for Anthony Johnson to scan for the "Digital Shoebox" so that the information will be available to anyone interested in Holloway High School.

The societies would like to thank Marilyn Monzula and her daughter Gina Constantino for hosting the picnic. Everyone had a wonderful time in a beautiful country setting. The next meeting of the Harrison County Genealogical Society will be Monday, Aug. 27 at 1 p.m. in the meeting room at the Puskarich Public Library.

The program will be presented by Charles Green of the Jefferson County Historical Society.

All meetings are open to the public.Â

Are you prepared for hurricane season and other storm emergencies?

(StatePoint) Hurricane season is in full swing, running from June through November.

Unfortunately, no one can stop a tropical storm or hurricane from happening and both types of weather events are increasingly impacting larger portions of the U.S. However, there are steps you can take that will help you weather a storm and better ensure the safety of your family. e experts at Freddie Mac

recommend doing the following.

- Know where to go in the event of a local area evacuation.

Your area’s emergency management agency can provide this information.

- Gather and protect important household documentation, including birth certificates, passports, marriage licenses, mortgage statements, deeds, insurance policies and medical files.

- Protect your valuables and family mementos by storing them in a safety deposit box, fire– and water–proof safe or moving them to higher ground where they are less likely to incur damage.

- Download an app for your smartphone that allows your friends and family to know if you are safe. e American Red Cross has a free hurricane app as do many for-profit organizations. Other apps that

are available include weather tracking apps, and apps that can help victims of storms find each other to pool resources and offer one another assistance. Be sure to keep your phone fully charged as long as your home has power and consider having an external battery pack on hand as well.

- Assemble an emergency supply kit that includes water, flashlights, non-perishable food, first-aid supplies, batteries, a

radio and medication.

- Create a family emergency plan and make sure everyone knows what to do and when.

- Prepare your home for heavy rainfall and strong winds by cleaning up lawn debris, loose furniture and lawn items that will not be able to sustain strong winds.

Secure loose rain gutters and ensure all gutters are clear from debris to keep water flowing and prevent further damage.

- Consider building a safe room,

if you are a homeowner, that meets Federal Emergency Management Agency criteria to provide at-home protection during extreme weather.

More hurricane tips and information can be found at freddiemac.com/blog. e devastation of last year’s hurricane season was an important reminder that being prepared for a worst-case scenario is crucial.

Before the next storm heads your way, be sure your family and home are protected.

SMITHFIELD

BY ESTHER MCCOY Here is the summary of an exciting vacation taken by 37 folks who hit it off very well from the start and the Clark Gable Foundation that was responsible for each experience along the way. e start of the Branson, Mo., bus trip took place at 8 a.m. at the Harrison Community Hospital, and ended at 7 p.m. in Litchfield, Il. for the first leg of the journey. Nan Mattern, executive director, made all the plans and came to see us off. Pat Eberhart and Mary Jane Wood served as trusty guides throughout the many miles, the eating establishments and places of entertainment.

We arrived at the Stone Castle Hotel at 3 p.m. on the following day and I must say the hotel looked like a castle from the outside. And there were the armored soldiers standing guard. Nice locations for a photo-op. e Dutton Family entertainment was breath taking with the large family all playing instruments, except for one son, who chose to run the spots. ey played the violin, fiddle and any stringed instrument that could be named and performed Celtic dances. Next was the Doug Gabriel Show, another family performance. e elder Gabriel played a manitair, a make-shift guitar his dad made for him from a car manifold when money was scarce. He still plays it with great style. It was here that a comical little lady came on stage and was telling what she knew of Clark Gable, as few of those under 50 knew the King of Hollywood that Cadiz is so proud to call their own. e Showboard Branson Belle was an adventure for the group; more so for Don Jochims of Hopedale and Wanda Monohan of Barnesville who were called to the stage to be helpers for Christopher the Magician.

Given a pair of drumsticks with the pointed end toward the back, he started beating the drum. with intensity. e magician said, "Why are you holding those drum sticks the wrong way?" And it got a laugh.

en he turned to Wanda and explained they were going through a rope trick and she was to cut it into two pieces, say a password, which he had told her earlier, and Don was to do his best on the drum. e rope was cut and Wanda was silent. "Say the password," the magician urged. "What is the password?" asked the tiny helper. "Don't you remember what I told you," he asked. With innocent eyes she said "No." But Don started jamming on the drums. anyhow. Shaking his head, Christopher urged the two to start over. Wanda cut the rope, he stretched it and it was in one piece again, she shouted "TaDah", Don hit the drums and cymbals and the crowd roared. e two were assured they were the most fun of any contestants he had on stage in a long time by the magician.

At the same show, the bio of each performer was on a screen in the back. One of the dancers was from Pittsburgh and when announced we gave him the biggest shout we could muster for tired folks. He looked at us with a big grin and said, "You made my day." A guitarist was from Cleveland but was not introduced. After the show, Lamont and I went to talk with him and he said he knew we were from Ohio by Chief WaHoo on his shirt. e most amazing play I have ever seen with Biblical characters was "Samson" at the Sight and Sound eatre. e large theatre was built like stone temples and high walls and when they started to rattle, crumble and fall due to Samson's return of strength, it was really moving. ere will be a stage performance of Moses on Sept. 13 and 15. I wish it were close enough to jump on a bus and see it. e group went on a tour of Historic Downtown Branson and Donna Sliva and I stopped in the Branson Centennial Museum while Roger and Lamont were out buying candy.

It showed the history of the Missouri State Police coming into existence in 1931, about the trouble ladies had riding sidesaddle and that there were many falls and injuries. Consequently, that was stopped. ere was a thick slice of a Liberty tree that was over 200 years old. How do we know that: e rings tell the story; there were 200 of them, one for each year of growth. Found inside the tree were 40 Civil War musket balls, many nails, railroad spikes and barbed wire that was wrapped up 14 feet high ere was a baseball section with a 1949 picture of Mickey Mantle while attending a Yankees training camp. Of course the story of "Casey Strikes Out" was present. Also, a 1933 National Cash Register that was in a Branson Drug Store and brought back when the store was purchased by another owner. Downtown businesses back them were a blacksmith shop, coffee and tobacco shop, feed and grocery store in 1914, telephone office, hardware and post office, commercial hotel, drug store, barber shop and pool hall, furniture store and a store that sold outhouses but buyers had to furnish your own Sears, Roebuck catalogs. e "Voices of Glory" group of two brothers and a younger singer who won the Branson young singer honor in 2018 was spectacular and the program that almost happened was the Million Dollar Quartet, comprised of the enactors of Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Right before we were to go in for the 7:30 p.m. show, a great storm, with extreme winds and hard rain hit the building and the lights went off, leaving just a few auxiliary lights. We went into the theater with the hopes it would pass and the show could start. It did not happen but the singers got on the stage and sang, though you could barely hear it for the big stage. ey went out into the concession and gift shop and posed for pictures and Donna and I again, lined up for a photo op.

Little did we know that out in the extreme weather, a Duck Boat was struggling with the high waves and hard rain. It sunk and 17 did not make it back. We did not know this until the next morning and everyone said a prayer for the families who had lost many loved ones. It is sad that this is the one incident that will stand out in our minds for a long time.

But something for any of the men or women on the trip who were veterans took seriously was the tribute to veterans held at each show. It is so wonderful to put these worthy people in the spotlight and it was terribly

Saturday, July 28, 2018 touching. e six days were memorable and friendships were made with the five folks from Barnesville, those from all over Harrison County and Lamont and I and Roger and Donna Sliva from Jefferson County. If you get a chance to go on one of the Gable Foundation trips, do it. It is great fun and you learn some statistics as well.

First to appear was Stewart who faces two misdemeanors, one M1 for assault and an M4 for criminal trespass. Solovan repeated the charges from their previous court appearance with Stewart facing a maximum of 180 days in jail and a fine of up to $1,000 for the assault charge and 30 days and a possible $250 fine for trespassing.

Solovan reminded both sides that discovery was to be filed by July 17, motions by July 24 and responses to those motions on July 31. He said discovery had been provided by the state, which included statements by both defendants, a

hospital report and a copy of the bus video for the incident in question.

Solovan stated he would accept a plea by the pre-agreement deadline, but after that there was no guarantee. He also said there would be no sentence without a presentence investigation.

Whether or not it was an indication of the defense counsel’s thinking, Steven Kandel, representing Stewart, asked Solovan after stating this was “no indication of how this case would resolve,” if he would request a guilty plea or would he accept a plea of no contest. Solovan explained that he wouldn’t necessarily reject a no contest plea but would want to hear

from the prosecution as to why they would accept one.

Solovan announced the plea deadline as Sept. 5, the same date as a civil stocking protection order was to be straightened out as well. A trial date was set for Oct. 18 at 9 a.m.

Another matter addressed had to do with Roth himself, where it was announced that he had accepted a position with Homeland Security and would not be able to see the case through. His replacement is to be present for that Sept. 5 appearance.

Kenny followed and he faces the more serious charge of felonious assault, a felony of the second degree. If convicted he is looking at

a maximum of 8 years in prison and a fine of up to $15,000. Two other charges, assault and criminal trespass are both misdemeanors and carry a possible combined 210 days in jail and $1,250 in fines.

Much of the same parameters and discovery were named for both candidates along with 24 “potential” witnesses, according to Solovan. Kenny, who is being represented by Herbert Morello was to be given a bill of particulars by the end of the week.

Kenny’s trial date was set for Wednesday, Oct. 31. Both Stewart and Kenny have been free on their own recognizance and also waived their right to a speedy trial.

Two others who are already

incarcerated for prior charges, appeared on Wednesday, Jordan Miller and Ryan Hennis on the state’s motion to revoke bond.

Miller, 28, of New Philadelphia and represented by Public Defender, C. Adrian Pincola, tested positive for cocaine where Judge, T. Shawn Hervey re-set bond at $200,000 after Miller admitted to the offense.

Hennis, 31, of Jewett also pleaded guilty to testing positive for amphetamines and meth amphetamines. Due to an apparent conflict of interest, Jefferson County Prosecuting Attorney, Jane Hanlin sat in as special prosecutor.

Hennis, who was represented by Matt Trissel, saw his bond re-set for $100,000

As you look at her picture with the big smile, that's the way you always saw her. She was such a happy and nice person. She loved her family with pictures all over her office, she loved her job and worked so hard to become a Nurse Practitioner. She loved helping people and had a heart of gold. She will certainly be missed by many. RIP my friend.

Suspects involved in alleged assault appear in court jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ –Two suspects, Timothy Kenny and Jonathan Stewart, accused of multiple charges after a confrontation at the house of a Harrison Hills school bus aid, which led to injuries suffered by the aid’s father, were back in court Monday afternoon.

Conflicts of interest allowed for the replacement of Judge T. Shawn Hervey with Judge John Solovan who had served in Belmont County’s common pleas court.

Sitting in for Harrison County Prosecutor Owen Beetham and Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey

Stewart sentencing moved ahead

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – Logan S. Stewart, the 25 year-old from Jewett who was reported to have changed his plea to guilty on charges of aggravated vehicular homicide, did not make a appearance Tuesday. His attorney Lawrence Whitney apparently had to cancel out because of a conflicting matter in his schedule.

Stewart was involved in an auto accident back in February that killed his passenger, Shane Shook, also of Jewett. Stewart has been out on a $75,000 bond with an ankle monitor attached. In his last court appearance Stewart requested he undertake an Ohio Risk Assessment (ORAS), which aids in sentencing. ose results won’t be revealed until his next appearance.

His new date for possible plea change and sentencing has now been

scheduled for Aug. 21.

Others who did appear in common pleas court Tuesday started was Christopher Johnson, who pleaded guilty to grand theft, a felony of the fourth degree and passing bad checks, which was the lesser of the two offenses, a felony of the fifth degree.

Judge, T. Shawn Hervey sentenced Johnson, 47, of St. Clairsville, to nine months in prison. For the other charge, Hervey stated that his hands were tied regarding sentencing, alluding to the Ohio legislature and F5 charges. Hervey said he would have sentenced him to prison on that charge as well but could only hand down a one-year sentence of Community Based Control (CBC).

His CBC sanctions are to be served after the completion of his nine months in prison.

Victim’s Advocate Jessica Norris read two short Victim’s Impact Statements (VIS) while one of

Johnson’s victims were present. e first one dealt with the difficulty in dealing with the bad checks and requested mandatory jail time. e second VIS dealt with requesting a no contact order and restitution. Representing Johnson was Public Defender C. Adrian Pincola who stated that his client did not wish to make a statement.

Hervey also ordered restitution in three clumps, the first for $804 to Orme Hardware, $224 to a private individual and another $553 to Mendenhall Farms. No fine was issued as is Hervey’s practice who stated he would rather see funds go to restitution. Johnson was also ordered to perform 60 hours of community service and any other program that was required as part of his CBC sanctions.

“I think it’s pretty clear that any time you commit a criminal offense in Harrison County you can count on either spending a maximum

amount of time in local incarceration or prison, whichever the state of Ohio lets me do…” Hervey told Johnson directly.

Also appearing but briefly was Jeffrey Hunter, charged with burglary, theft and grand theft, felonies of the 2nd, 3rd and 5th degrees, respectively. Hunter, who is 36 from Toronto, has a bond set at $50,000. Hunter, who was represented by Pincola asked for an ORAS with no other requests or discussion.

“Your honor, we have no resolution at this time…” Pincola told the court reminding Hervey that a trial date has been set for September. He added that an Eastern Ohio Correction Center (EOCC) evaluation would also be conducted as long as the state did not use any information in those evaluations, which Harrison County Prosecutor Owen Beetham stipulated to, as is the norm.

Hospital to host workshop on hypertension

MEETINGS, NOTICES, ANNOUNCEMENTS Cadiz Union Cemetery Board meeting change

CADIZ – As part of its Lunch & Learn workshops, Harrison Community Hospital (HCH) will host a program on high blood pressure.

“Pressure’s On: How to Combat Your Hypertension” will be held at noon on Aug. 2 at noon in the HCH cafeteria.

Carol Teter, RN, community nurse educator, will lead the program and share seven steps that can be taken to lower the risk of developing hypertension.

New and lower blood pressure ranges recently were set by the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology. Now, nearly onehalf of the U.S. population will find they suffer from

hypertension. It is particularly prevalent among people age 65 or older, with a reported 80 percent suffering from high blood pressure.

Like many diseases, hypertension can be a “silent” disease and go unnoticed until organ damage has already occurred.

“Hypertension is essentially a ‘lifestyle’ disease because you control the choices you make,” Teter said. “Do you eat a lot of processed foods loaded with salt and fat? According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 89 percent of Americans consume more sodium than they should.”

Other factors that can increase the health risks are smoking,

inactivity, being overweight, having diabetes, consuming too much alcohol and having a family history of high blood pressure. In addition to salt, a high-sugar diet also has been implicated.

“Come learn how to lower your high blood pressure to help reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, memory loss, damaged vision – which can lead to blindness – heart failure and hardening of the arteries,” Teter said.

Lunch & Learn workshops are held at HCH the first ursday of each month. No reservations are necessary. HCH is a division of Wheeling Hospital.

JEFFERSON/HARRISON COUNTIES: e first of three super loads will be traveling through Jefferson and Harrison counties this Sunday, July 29. e super load will be entering Ohio from West Virginia on U.S. 22. SR 7 will be affected between Pottery and Steubenvillle. e super load will continue west on U.S. 22 to Lovers Lane to SR 43 (Sunset/Layman Blvd.) to CR 22A, back to U.S. 22 westbound to SR 151 in Hopedale, ending at the MarkWest fractionator facility

on Giacobbi Road. e U.S. 22 closure will be handled as a rolling roadblock from SR 43 to Lovers Lane. e transport will be accompanied by four Ohio State Highway Patrol escorts, Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), local law enforcement and utility trucks.

Progress of the super load will affect traffic in all directions on the traveled routes. Motorists wishing to travel to West Virginia during this time should expect delays of up to 30 minutes while this super load

enters Ohio. Once the super load is in Ohio, motorists should expect delays and various intermittent ramp and lane closures as the super load progresses west.

Dimensions of the super load are 16-feet wide, 17-feet 4inches tall, 310-feet long, and 476,000 pounds, gross weight.

Due to the size and travel speed of the super load, officials from ODOT are working closely with the logistics team from Capital City Crane to plan for the successful transport of these units.

e transport team is paying special attention to public safety when crossing bridges and making turns on the super loads route. e transport team is also planning the move to avoid peak travel times to minimize the interference with traffic.

ODOT is asking motorists to plan ahead and consider alternate routes to avoid congestion and delays. For more information contact: Lauren Borell at (330) 3087817 or Lauren.Borell@dot.ohio.gov.

Mike Wolfe, Frank Fritz, and their team are excited to return to Ohio. ey plan to film episodes of the hit series American Pickers throughout the region in September.

American Pickers is a documentary series that explores the fascinating world of antique “picking” on History. e hit show follows Mike and Frank, two of the most skilled pickers in the business, as they hunt for America’s most valuable antiques. ey are always excited to find sizeable, unique collections and learn the interesting stories behind them.

As they hit the back roads from coast to coast, Mike and Frank are on a mission to recycle and rescue forgotten relics. Along the

way, the Pickers want to meet characters with remarkable and exceptional items. e pair hopes to give historically significant objects a new lease on life, while learning a thing or two about America’s past along the way. Mike and Frank have seen a lot of rusty gold over the years and are always looking to discover something they’ve never seen before. ey are ready to find extraordinary items and hear fascinating tales about them.

American Pickers is looking for leads and would love to explore your hidden treasure. If you or someone you know has a large, private collection or accumulation of antiques that the Pickers can spend the better

part of the day looking through, send us your name, phone number, location and description of the collection with photos to:

picnic and open house

MINGO JUNCTION-A familiar face is coming back to the Indian Creek Local School District as former superintendent John Rocchi takes on a new role as district special education coordinator.

School board officials approved his hiring during the July 19 meeting at Indian Creek Middle School and said Rocchi will replace departing official Georgia Pavlic, who resigned after two years in the position and eight years with the district to accept a post with State Support Team Region 12 (SST12). Rocchi received a three-year contract for 240 days per year and is expected to formally begin his duties on Aug. 1.

Rocchi most recently served as superintendent in the Claymont City School District for four years. Prior to that, he spent three years each as Indian Creek’s superintendent and director of special education for SST-12, plus he was director of special education for preschool for four years in the Harrison Hills City School District and taught at Indian Creek for seven years.

He is a graduate of Cadiz High School and obtained a bachelor’s degree in education from Kent State University. He subsequently earned a master’s degree in special education from KSU in 1997 and his administrative licensure from Franciscan University in 2004.

Rocchi resides in Cadiz with his wife, Robin, and together they have three children.

Rocchi said he was glad to be back and was ready to begin working with the staff and students.

“I’m excited. I think it’s a prime time to be back at Indian Creek with the passage of the levy and all of the exciting things happening here,” he

added. “I look forward to working with the parents, students, community and staff.”

Superintendent Dr. T.C. Chappelear said leaders were pleased to have Rocchi on board and his expertise extend from a district to regional level.

“He has an abundance of expertise in special education and we’re lucky to have a candidate with his level of knowledge,” Dr. Chappelear commented. “He has been a district and regional special education coordinator, a superintendent and is currently co-authoring a chapter in a textbook on special education, so we’re excited to have someone of his caliber serving in our

district.”

In other personnel matters, the board approved employed Kylee Lash and Rebecca Canestraro as kindergarten teachers at Wintersville Elementary under a one-year contract for 184 days per year; a supplemental contract for Christopher Hoover as cross country coach; extra-duty supplemental service contracts to Kristi Sciarra as WES afterschool physical activities director, omas Mort as ICHS afterschool physical activities director, Karen Lloyd as WES OIP and math assistant; classified substitutes Faith Arney as custodian, cafeteria and paraprofessional, Karen Davis and Toni Guy as custodian,

Resignations were also approved for ICMS teacher Michelle Maffe, effective at the end of the 2017-18 school year after one year of service; WES third-grade teacher Ann Hardman after four years of service; ICHS Business/Media teacher Michele Grant; and ICHS science teacher Craig Allen, effective Aug. 1.

Edison Back To School Rally set for Aug. 5

BCC prepares for the start of new school year

Edison BOE approves contracts, advances levy

HAMMONDSVILLE-e Edison Local Board of Education continued its quest to keep schools safe by approving contracts for school resource officers at its three buildings on ursday. e board agreed to maintain 170-day contracts for Deputy Scott Renforth at Edison High School, Special Deputy Mark Clark at John Gregg Elementary and Saline Township Police Officer Elizabeth McCall at Stanton Elementary. Deputy Renforth has spent more than 15 years at EHS while more SRO’s were added at the elementary schools last year.

Superintendent Bill Beattie said it provided an added layer of safety for students so they could concentrate on getting an education.

“We are putting them under contract for the 2018-19 school year,” he explained. “We’re pleased to have a law enforcement presence in each building. We felt it was important to add them at the end of last year and the board has agreed to continue that presence within the schools.” e SRO’s have also undergone Alert Lockdown Inform Counter and Evacuate (ALICE) safety

11

training at each site and Beattie anticipates similar safety drills to occur over the next school year.

In additional personnel matters, officials saw changes within the administration after approving a resignation from longtime educator Kimberly Wadas, who has served in the district for 18 years and as assistant superintendent for the past six years. Wadas departed on July 2 for personal reasons and leaders bid goodbye, thanking her for her service to students and education as a whole. “e district extends our gratitude for her years of service and we wish her well in her future endeavors,” Beattie said.

Stanton Elementary Principal Julie Kireta was named as Wadas’ replacement and will formally begin her new duties on Aug. 1.

Kireta, a longtime teacher in the district, had headed Stanton for the past three years and Beattie said she makes a great addition to the district office.

“I think she has a strong background in curriculum and I’m excited that she is taking this opportunity,” he said.

Her Stanton post will be filled on

Aug. 1 by Matt Shepherd, who previously served Indian Creek and Hancock County Schools, most recently as transportation director in Hancock.

“We’re excited to have Matt on board and believe he will bring a lot to the table,” Beattie noted.

Meanwhile, the board declared its intent to proceed with placing the district’s renewal levy on the November ballot. Officials first put plans in motion by approving a resolution of necessity at the June 28 session and efforts will get under way in August to build public support. Officials will determine actual millage, which now stands at 5.9 mills, but hope to renew the measure last passed in spring of 2014. Beattie said it would provide $1.2 million annually over a five-year period and assist with general operations while filling a financial gap caused by the loss of revenue from First Energy Corp.

In other action, the board: - Accepted resignations from Jim Benson as teacher, wrestling and track coach and Christina Haught as cheerleading advisor; - Amended the contract for administrative assistant Fatima

Smuck from 215 to 220 days; - Employed Amy Bordash as a math teacher; - Accepted a resignation from Marsha Smith as part-time cook; - Approved a supplemental contract for Nolan Marcus with the Edison Jr. High Football team as well as an initial substitute list; - Approved contracts for physical therapy services with Kelly Crosby and Amy Purcell for the upcoming school year; - Hired Susan Pytash as an elementary school secretary; - Learned about plans for the Back To School Rally on Aug. 5 from 3-7 p.m. at EHS. Activities include inflatable rides from Movin’ & Groovin’ Productions, informational booths, Meet the Team and a chicken dinner sponsored by the athletic boosters; - Approved an athletic training contract with Trinity Healthcare Systems; - Agreed to pay Toronto City Schools for speech therapy services; - Set the next meeting for Aug. 9 at 7 p.m. at EHS.

Prospective students will also learn about the Be Connected initiative, which provides an iPad for every student, faculty and the majority of staff members for integration into every facet of student life from enrollment to graduation. e purpose of Be Connected is to encourage completion and retention, as well as to enhance the way Belmont College teaches and prepares students for the technologydriven careers that await them.

Harrison County residents enjoy Gable Foundation bus trip

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributor

CADIZ - The Clark Gable Foundation has used wellplanned bus trips all over the United States as successful fund raisers since Nan Mattern has been serving as its executive director. The one that left the Harrison Community Hospital parking lot on July 16 could not have a more favorable mix of travelers. There were those from Harrison County, with Mayor Kenny Zitko, leaving town for six days.

Pat Eberhart and Mary Jane Wood were the leaders. Wood is a member of the Gable board of directors and Eberhart is a faithful worker at the Clark Gable Museum and Gift Shop, where a tour of the

home place as it would have been in 1901, when the King of Hollywood was born on Feb. 1. Everyon soon learned that when leaving Ohio, the Gable name doesn't mean as much. Our Diamond Tours hostess at the Stone Castle Hotel, where we stayed, admitted that she and one other employee were familiar with the name and it went on where the announcer at the Showboat Branson Belle recalled some of the King's movies and a take off on Minnie Pearl talked about the movie "Gone with the Wind."

There were 25 travelers, plus the two guides and Mark, the jovial bus driver. The passengers were Melinda Bailey, Pauline Cope, Lisa Cunningham, Joe and Nancy Fillipovich, Chuck, Sara and

Brad George, Larry Hutchison, Don and Karen Jochims, Carl Johnson, Keith and Maureen Kull, Dean and Deborah Ligias, Lamont and myself, Sue McCue, Wanda Monahan, Morris and Laurel Nagle, Jack and Jean Plants, Joseph and Mary Pratz, Andrew Pelegreen, Henry Bingler, Roger and Donna Sliva, Marilyn Swelbar, Sue VanFossen, Judy Yahrlig, and Penny and Kenny Zitko.

We played some fun games, with Andy Pelegreen, Lisa Cunningham, Karen Jochims, Lamont and Joe Pratz as the winners. Pratz gave his to Brad George who treasured it very much. Lamont won the baseball scramble game. No wonder, he has played baseball since he was 8-years-old, then played Pony League, Legion baseball, high school baseball,

NH Photos | ESTHER McCOY

There were Gable Foundation travelers from Harrison, Jefferson and Belmont counties making the six-day trip to Branson, MO, to see the shows and have fantastic dinners. At the buffet dinner held at the Pointe Royale Club House were, from left, seated, Brad, Chuck and Sara George; Penny Zitko and his honor Mayor Ken Zitko, and Keith Kull. Back, standing, Joe and Nancy Fillipovich; and Maureen Kull.

Steel Valley League, Air Force baseball and when he returned from serving, he played softball for the Smithfield Falcons. And not to mention coaching Little League through three sons. That is why he knew how to unscramble words such as "spitball." The contest we went down on was "What was the name of the dog in the Punch and Judy Show. In the event you don't know, it was Tobey. And "How many squares are on a checkerboard?" That answer is 64.

We went to see "the Million Dollar Quartet," consisting of Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis impersonators. But the power went out and we could see the wind whipping around and the rain slashing against the windows. The show was to go on at 8 p.m. and with no electric to make adequate sound for the music, it was canceled. We did get to have our pictures taken with Elvis, and Donna Sliva and I got a big hug out of the deal.

Little did we know that the same time we were grousing about not seeing a show, a duck boat was being whipped by the waves and wind and sunk. With no life preservers on their bodies, many drowned or were injured. We all bowed our heads and sent up a silent prayer for the survivors and the families who had to face a loss of children, mothers, fathers, and grandparents.

At the Branson Belle show, we saw a bio of two of the performers who were from our neck of the woods; a guitarist was from Cleveland.

After the show I told him we were from Ohio and he said he figured that out as he saw Lamont wearing a shirt with a

Chief Wahoo symbol. The other was a dancer from Pittsburgh and when he was announced, our group gave a big cheer and he said that we made his day.

We went to see the production of Samson and it was magnificent. I got an end seat and had the privilege of seeing actors run screaming down my aisle, a horseback rider came galloping down and back and two of the cutest little white dogs came bounding up the aisle with a device that would not harm

them but sparks were flying out of it. It was supposed to represent dogs being chased from the temple. I never realized that Samson had a sister named Esther. I don't hear that name in others often.

It was a fantastic trip that should leave those attending talking for a long time.

If you have a chance to travel with the Clark Gable Foundation, don't pass it up.

It helps to earn needed funds to keep the museum in operation as well.

Don Jochims of Hopedale, left, and Wanda Monahan of Barnesville, Gable Foundation travelers, were called to the stage by magician Christopher on the showboat Branson Belle to take part in a magic trick. Jochims was handed a pair of drum sticks the opposite way they are to be held and after striking the drum and cymbals several times was asked why he was holding them upside down. Wanda was to cut a rope in half, the magician was to show that it was back together again, Jochims was to hit the drum and Wanda was to say the password. The problem was she forgot the password and it had to be performed again. When the proper password was passed on Wanda remembered and shouted "Ta Dah", Don hit the cymbals and drum, practically together, and the magician pronounced this to be the most fun he had with two contestants…ever.
