Election day results deliver few surprises

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com HARRISON COUNTY – Most election results came in as expected for the most part, but there were a few surprises depending on where the conversation was aimed.

In Bowerston, Mayor Milo Baker lost out to council member Jacqueline Sue Humphrey, 41-23.

In Freeport, the village clerk treasurer’s position goes to Mary McBride by beating out Anna Cook, 60-19. For Jewett mayor, Dwight Busby held on to his position by defeating David Bailey, 78-65 (a correction from the Oct. 19 print edition stated

David Bailey was a current council member was incorrect. Bo Bailey is the current council member who was not on the ballot this year).

For Jewett Village Council, Dennis Hirschbach barely held on by defeating Ruth Blackburn, 73-69. Wendy Majewski took the other seat with the most votes at 107.

And in Scio, Gordon Kress became the new member for a village council seat with the most votes at 55. Current member Carol Davy pulled in 50 to hold onto her seat where both held off Kari Ann Salsberry, who tallied 35 votes.

For Cadiz Township Fiscal Officer, Brenda Jo Carter defeated Heidi Ann Graham, 351-285. And in Freeport, Township Trustee Tate Bardall defeated Karl Hoop, 120-79. In the German Township Trustee race, Walter Carman defeated Christopher Birney, 90-80.

In Green Township where some viewed this as a surprise, current trustee John Seleski was beaten out by Richard Atkins

by a wide margin, 258-122. In more township races, Ralph Ferguson defeated Bart Busby, 116-84 to take a Monroe trustee seat. And North Township Trustee Paul Trushell defeated Gary Myer soundly, 149-86.

The Shortcreek Township Trustee race saw a tight one with Andrew Filippi ousting John Stanko by just four votes, 147-143. And the Shortcreek Fiscal Officer seat went to Jessica Brown, 137116 over Stacy Jo Richter.

For the Buckeye Local school board membership, Teresa George tallied 156 votes to take the top spot with April Ogden reeling in 99 votes for the other seat, thereby ousting Joseph Zelek with 75 votes.

In Conotton Valley, Christopher Bower and Logan Putman nearly tied with votes of 161 and 159 respectively for those two seats, knocking out Robert Higgenbotham who came in with 132 votes.

Josh McConnell tallied 14 votes and M. David Reed came in with 11 for the two

Edison Local school board membership spots, Matt Bordash with eight votes and Warner Sanders with seven, were defeated.

For Harrison Hills, Edward Banks III tallied the most votes with 1,598 and Tracy Mattern came in with 1,402 to take the two seats up for grabs. John Visser was defeated with just 798 votes.

Regarding the numerous levies with most being renewals, the following were approved by the voters: Cadiz (.50 mil cemetery); Cadiz Township (1 mil new equipment); Freeport Township fire protection (.570 mil); Shortcreek (1 mil fire protection); Stock fire equipment (1 mil); Monroe Township Cemetery; Monroe Township fire protection (.5 mil) and an additional 3.0 mil levy.

Edison Local School tax levy won by a narrow 14-10 margin while the Jefferson JVS levy won, 157-87.

Harrison County Support Children Services was approved by a resounding margin of, 2,148-864 and the Harrison County Sheriff levy by another wide

margin, 2,212-804. In other approvals, Scio police (1 mil); New Athens current expenses (1 mil); New Athens police renewal (2 mil) were also approved.

Also, Hopedale current expenses (1.6 mil) and three Harrisville current expenses (0.05) and another (1.5) and the third at (3.120) were all approved. Bowerston’s current expense levy (1.5) was also approved.

The liquor option for J-D Bowling Lanes was approved by a wide margin, 234-86, as well as the Old Schoolhouse liquor option, though by a much narrower margin of 108-94.

In some disappointments depending on who one speaks with, the Adena ordinance for marihuana [sic] was defeated by one single vote, 27-26. A disappointment that will definitely be felt in Jewett, though, was the 1-mil police levy which was defeated by a rather wide margin, 88-63.

But the Jewett Park Levy won by almost the same amount the police levy lost by, 98-53.

Local author speaks to Friends of Smithfield group

By ETHER McCOY NH Contributor

Robin Yocum, a known and honored local author of mystery books that ties in with the Tri-State Area, spoke at the Friends of Smithfield group recently. A graduate of Buckeye North High School, he went on to graduate from Bowling Green State University with a degree in journalism.

He started on the Times Leader working at the sports desk and moved on to the Columbus Dispatch, where he received a desk on the news side. From his experiences, Yocum compiled a book on crime investigations. “Dead Before Deadline” was his first book and it got him interested in writing.

His first work of fiction “Favorite Sons” was named the 2011 USA News Book of the Year for mystery- suspense and was a Choose to Read Ohio selection for 2013-14 and a featured book of the 2012 Ohioana Book

HARRISON

Festival. He is the recipient of more than 30 local state and national journalism awards.

Robin’s books are especially of interest to readers in the Ohio Valley for all the local areas and businesses he brings into play in his stories. The author noted that 85 percent of books are purchased by females. He talks about County Road 19, an area in New Alexandria, as a location in one book and names Naples and DiCarlo’s Pizza places. He uses names of people he grew up with or has met along the way in his stores as well. Along with getting lost in the mystery of the story, it is interesting to see the descriptions of local people brought into his mysteries. His latest, written in 2018, is ”A Perfect Shot.”

Yocum is the Edgar Award-nominated author of the critically acclaimed novels, “A Welcome Murder.” “A Brilliant Death,” “Favorite Sons,” and “The Essay.”

Telling about his work ethic, Robin aims for a minimum of 500 words a day, with a good day accomplishing “a couple 1,000 words a

Events

day.” A book usually runs 100,000 words, it was noted.

“I like what I am doing but I wouldn’t want to live on the amount brought in writing books. I only publish one a book a year.”

Linda Drobne, FoS president, introduced Yocum and secretary Cindy Grace said that “A Welcome Murder” was published in the Plain Dealer, where she resides in Cleveland.

Those attending asked questions and purchased Yocum’s books.

The FoS speaker series is one of the programs of the group. They have had speakers on the underground railroad and primitive man this past year. They meet quarterly and hold fund raisers such as pasta dinners, Chinese auctions. a yard and bake sale to earn funds for carrying on with the group. It is comprised of past Smithfield High School graduates, with some from as far away as Cleveland, Kirtland and Canton.

It was founded for the betterment of the area and was involved with cleaning up the Smithfield Cemetery in the past.

CADIZ – Wednesday, Karen Couch announced her retirement as of Dec. 31 of this year as director of Harrison County Public Transit. Sitting beside her was the soon-to-be director Nate Hercules.

Couch said she had been affiliated with the institution for 22 years but said that Hercules did have plans on raising rates.

“He does have plans on raising the rates,” Couch stated. “…His thinking, the way he’s thinking in what he wants to do I think will justify it.” Commissioner Don Bethel jumped on that note stating there must be affordable costs for transporting people but also noted the need for an “equal balance” and said the “cost structure was out of whack.”

Bethel basically stated that it was not practical to drive someone long distances to, for example, a store and wait for them before driving them back to their home. He said for $5 it can’t be done.

“So, good luck with that and we’re excited and looking forward to hearing your plans to handle that,” Bethel said, which Hercules thanked him but made no speech himself.

Also, an appropriation request from County Home Director Ed Banks was tabled after discussion led to the question of monies being certified or not. Commissioner Dale Norris read the request, which was in the amount of $125,000.

“As our funds balance continues to be depleted due to unexpected repairs, I am requesting the appropriation of additional funds,” Banks wrote. He goes on to state that he is “anticipating” more expenses from “work by others clause of the RFP (Request For Proposal).”

Banks explained that the shaft, which the hydraulic cylinder casing fits into, would need to be re-drilled at a

Coffland stated that some money they had appropriated last year was not certified and the state auditor corrected them by stating they could not do that without certification.

Also, Harrison County Engineer Doug Bachman had one item to present to the board, which was a Road Use Maintenance Agreement (RUMA) with AEP Ohio.

The request includes use of Harrison 44 for .29 miles (from intersection of Ohio 151 east) then .07 miles of Harrison 43 and .09 miles of Harrison 8, which he said were outside Bowerston’s village limits.

Bachman also announced that seven public vehicles would be placed up for public auction, which include a 1994 Chevy to a 2006 GMC. The auction will be posted on: www.govdeals.com and the bidding is scheduled to begin Saturday, Nov. 9 at 6 a.m. and close Nov. 19.

Norris’s motion to approve was later rescinded to a request to table the issue after Commissioner Paul Coffland asked if they should investigate the fact that the county auditor sent a note where the original amount available had not yet been certified.

“I mean if they didn’t certify those dollars to begin with, we know that they’re there.

The money is there,” he said but added that he wasn’t sure what certified initially.

After Coffland suggested tabling the issue for review Norris agreed and rescinded his original motion. Coffland later explained that the auditor and the budget commission “do a certificate and that says that you’ll have X amount of dollars to

Senator Brown introduces bill for veterans to combat predatory loans

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

COLUMBUS – The Military Lending Act (MLA) of 2006 was intended to protect military members from predatory institutions that took advantage of military individuals seeking title loans and “payday” loans.

That bill capped the interest rate to 36 percent compared to the outrageous sums of 300 to 600 percent previously in some areas.

Sen. Sherrod Brown-D on Wednesday held a conference call with Ohio reporters about a new bill he’s introducing called the Veterans and Consumers Fair Credit Act (VCFCA) of 2019. This bill will include all veterans and Gold Star families “surviving family members and all consumers.”

Brown spoke of car title loan stores and how they prey and congregate near military instillations in areas that have a heavy presence.

“In Ohio there are some 650 payday or car title loan stores.

Their loan…borrows with interest rates that often top 600 percent and by so doing, they trap borrowers in a downward

spiral of debt,” Brown explained. “More than 75 percent of loans go to borrowers who take out 11 or more loans each year.”

He said these companies target military families and usually one will find them camping out near military installations. He said the passing of the MLA where the interest rates were capped at 36 percent for “active duty members and their families,” was to cut into the large interest rates that ran into triple digits.

“That sounds high except compared to what happens if we don’t cap it [so] it’s obviously a good public policy,” Brown explained. He continued by stating that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, under President Trump’s administration, “stopped the examinations that make sure these shady outfits follow the law and that they’re not preying on service members.”

He said that since it was only intended to protect active military members the law (MLA) wasn’t broad enough, or not “written well enough” to protect veterans. He stressed the newly created VCFCA of 2019, is designed to protect “all

Ohioans including veterans.”

Brown said this would afford veterans the same protections as any other Ohioans.

Brown explained that the bill would extend the 36 percent cap to “all consumers including the veterans and Gold Star families [that were] left out of the original law.” He warned that the “payday industry” is attempting to influence the Trump administration to be in favor of their business and even cited an Ohio news source stating that that industry was encouraging “payday lenders” to contribute to Trump’s campaign.

Harrison County Veteran’s Service Officer Jim Thompson said he’s not seen this in his area what Brown is describing.

“I haven’t run into any of that,” he said this week. “It doesn’t seem to be a major problem here.” He explained that those payday businesses and lenders tend to pop up around active duty populations where military presence is heaviest, to which Brown alluded. Thompson said one problem that is somewhat frustrating is that there is only one bank in the area (PNC) that works with veterans on a

Veterans Administration loan process, which can be beneficial to veterans needs.

Guest speaker on the call, Jermaine Ferguson of the American Legion Department of Ohio, spoke briefly and repeated the intention of the new bill.

“This legislation, we believe, will protect all consumers who may experience temporary financial hurdles from predatory lending practices by ensuring that the financial institutions can be responsible…to consumers without cutting off their access to credit,” Ferguson explained and thanked Brown for his contribution to this issue.

Brown remarked that the head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (Mick Mulvaney in 2018) “has not been aggressive in standing up to the payday lending companies.” He went even further stating that the White House, at times, looks like “a retreat for Wall Street executives.”

Brown noted Mulvaney’s successor Kathy Kraninger as being “too friendly” to payday lenders and “far too hostile in the Military Lending Act.”

New latch-key program kicks off this week at Harrison Hills

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – The Harrison Hills school Latch-key program talked about for the past month will finally get off the ground this week. Harrison East Elementary Principal Jennifer Birney appeared before the Harrison Hills Board of Education (HHBOE) members at last Thursday’s meeting to provide final details.

Superintendent Dana Snider reminded the board that the state’s Wellness funding would allow the school to proceed with this program.

“It’s based on your enrollment,” Snider said. “The school district received money this year and they’ll receive money next year and this money is allowed to be

allotted over a period of time.”

She said, in working with Treasurer Roxane Harding that they aimed to spread the funding out over a five-year period.

Snider said the District has “approved and hired another preventionist” for group work also, Harrison Community Hospital would be placing a doctor in the school four hours per week, “to see students, staff in areas of need.”

Birney stated that this would work well, especially with working parents who now won’t have to rush home leaving work early. She said there was no cost to the parents and the program was to begin this past Monday.

The program is free to Harrison Central students ages 5-14 working on homework and study skills, physical and

recreational activities, which includes an after-school snack Monday through Friday in the morning from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. and again from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the evening.

Birney said this program would also be extended to pre-school children after she was approached by several parents asking if their children could be included. She confirmed the morning and afternoon hours to be provided for the students and all that is included in the program.

“Currently right now, we have over 25 students participating and I can see too that we’ll probably have more once the word gets out and they see the benefits of that part of it,” Birney explained.

Also, an interested resident

Kevin Laney said he would like to see a cross-country course built at the new school grounds.

He said he would build the course himself and pay for the expenses, which he said would be made of grass and be basically, a simple course to construct.

“I propose to do it all at my expense,” Laney told the board while showing some drawings and plans he had laid out for the project. “It’ll be fast, efficient and fun.”

He said the course could be adjusted at the start or the finish where the race would end up on the newly built track. He said 75 percent of the course would be seen “without any problem,” and would not take long to construct the course.

“The way this school sets on the ground and where I’m likely to

put the course you over look the majority of the course,” Laney explained. He added that the grounds were just right for this and there were also not many obstructions for building it.

“And we could also use the trails, you know, for doubling them up as nature walks for the kids,” he told the board. “It’s just nice to have a nice home meet, you know.” Talk then turned to

fencing, which the school will be putting up but Laney said he would cover what the school could not.

“I’ll cover those costs,” he told the board.

Deborah Kenny president of the HHBOE thanked Laney and told him they would look into his proposal and get back to him.

Jewett passes several motions for infrastructure needs

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com JEWETT – The village of Jewett passed a handful of motions Wednesday evening dealing with various infrastructure needs. The first was for rebuilding their lift stations at the wastewater plant.

Discussion followed regarding their major waterline project that Border Patrol was awarded during the summer. Council members felt the urgency to announce when the company would be starting and where.

Council member Paul Prevot felt the need to publicize something in the media concerning starting dates and go on from there.

Council agreed to publicize in various ways when the time comes.

Another motion approved was for the village to pay the state for their filing fees regarding a permit for the water treatment plant. A third motion was passed for a new garage door for their storage building, which is located behind the school building.

Framing, braces and other material was included in the

discussion.

Another motion was approved giving the mayor permission for submitting an application “to participate in the Appalachian Regional Commission…and to execute the contract as required.”

Mayor Dwight Busby read the resolution (2019-13) reminding council that this was for their filler system and rehabilitation work on their water treatment plant.

Busby stated the cost came to $1,317,000. When asked if the village was spending “another million dollars” he was told the money would be a received-grant in helping the project move forward.

Village Solicitor Jenna Hokes touched on their 2019 water ordinance that amends the village’s fees and “adding your maintenance fees for your sewer system and taking all your old water ordinances and condensing them into one.” A second reading was then conducted for this ordinance that Hokes noted.

Hokes also touched on the village’s efforts regarding easements being obtained for their waterline project. She told council things were moving

forward with easements being recorded and domain has been filed. She told council the residents in question have until Dec. 2 to respond and “the only thing they can contest is how much money we have to pay them, not whether or not we can be on the property.”

She continued by stating that the three specific properties in question would be done last and Dec. 2 is “default judgment day.”

“If they don’t answer by December second, which is very likely that the two, it’s very likely that they will not answer because they did not respond to the initial filing. If they don’t answer

by December second, it’s default judgment then they get nothing,” Hokes said emphatically.

Council also approved the purchase of a new computer for Clerk of Water and Public Affairs Rhonda Harris. The money would come out of their water and sewer fund.

Harris opened the meeting with her usual Regional Income Tax Agency report stating that compared to last year at this time they are ahead by 34 percent, or around $12,000. For the year to

date, the village has collected a little more than $45,300.

She also informed council that seven delinquent accounts on the books add up to $11,567.15. For water collections in October, that sum came to $12,548.75 and wastewater collections for the same month came to $11,854.25 for a total of $24,403.

SMITHFIELD

BY Esther McCoy I have to comment on Mrs. Keele’s closing paragraph in her Nov. 2 column. I will repeat it first because it is so right on “Be selective in your battles, sometimes peace is better than being right. Your beliefs do not make you a better person, your actions do. Every day is another chance to change your life. Just because a decision hurts, it doesn’t mean that it is the wrong decision.” These are words to live by.

I am so proud of our girls from Buckeye Local: Carly Long, Kadence Kinyo and Emily Valuska, for raising $700 through activities in 4-H and through the school to help the family of Mackenzie Smith, daughter of Ross and Marsha Smith. “Kenzie” died on Aug. 11, just after the family came home from the Jefferson County Fairgrounds. They had been grooming the area where Mackenzie’s two 4-H feeder calves would be housed throughout the fair. Her brother, Colby’s animals were there too. She wasn’t feeling well, laid down and left this life much too soon.

Mackenzie went to interview for the Jefferson County Junior Fair princess in early August.

On the day of the crowning, Corissa Griffith, Windy Ridge 4-H and the retiring junior princess, took off her crown and gave it to Vickie Whinnery, the junior fair coordinator, to present to the Smith family. She was a princess in the eyes of everyone.

Students at Edison High School worked hard to raise money as well. Bayleigh Gump, her best friend and fellow freshman cheerleader pal, said she went to many soccer, volleyball and football games to walk through the crowd and collect money in a bucket. A steer from the fair was purchased, butchered and used as a raffle to bring in money by 4-H members, teachers and parents.

Between the two schools, $1,900 has been raised to date.

Veterans Day will be honored on Nov. 11, although for reasons beyond control, some

schools and organizations hold the event early. Did you know that Veterans Day does not have an apostrophe? Some people think that is Veteran’s Day or Veterans’ Day. Not so tells the American Legion magazine. It is not a day that belongs to one veteran or multiple veterans, as the apostrophe implies. It honors ALL veterans. I can remember my parents calling it Armistice Day, commemorating the end of the Great War, which was World War I. This happened when a treaty was signed on June 28, 1919.

However, fighting ended about seven months before that. This is when the Allies and Germany put into effect an armistice on the 11th hour, 11th day, of the 11th month. It was to be the war to end all wars and dubbed Armistice Day, in 1926, Congress recognized it as the end of the war and in 1938, it became an official holiday. Go to a service on this day and think of the freedom that we have because many far too young soldiers went to battle to fight for a free country. Tell a veteran that you appreciate them serving today and everyday.

Ila (King) Walrath Ila (King) Walrath passed away peacefully on Sunday, Nov. 3, six days before her 91st birthday.

Although the Sound of Music in The Ohio Valley has somewhat dimmed at the loss of this talented musician, the heavens have welcomed her with open arms. There is no doubt that the trumpets were blaring and the harps were playing as she entered the gates to meet her Lord and Savior.

Ila was born on Nov. 9, 1928 to the late Leland E. and Anna Margaret (McCullough) King at her home in New Alexandria, OH. As a child, her father insisted that she take violin lessons, while her sister took piano lessons in their home. Ila would hide around the corner, and when the piano teacher left, she would sit down and play her sister’s entire lesson by ear. She graduated from Brilliant High School at the age of 16 and went on to Baldwin Wallace College, majoring in violin, but admits that the piano was always her first love.

After graduating from college, Ila became the band and vocal director at Wayne High School in Bloomingdale, OH where she would teach for ten years. She made many lifelong friends while teaching there as she was only twenty years old and had many students that were 17 & 18!

While looking out of her classroom window one day, she noticed a tall, handsome man named Bobby Walrath, and

knew instantly that she was going to marry him. They were married in June of 1951 and moved to Cadiz in January of 1960 where they would eventually raise their four children. She and Bob built and operated the Dairy Isle on East Market Street for a number of years before she retired to being a full time mom.

As a member of the Presbyterian church in Cadiz, Ila began playing piano and organ duets with Spencer Warren, who was the organist at the time.

Upon his retirement in 1976, Mrs. Walrath took on the role of organist, working with six different ministers and four choir directors over the next forty years.

There was rarely a community event where her presence was not known. She played for countless Cadiz High School musicals, Solo and Ensemble competitions, the Coal Festival’s Queen Pageant, and accompanied The New Beginnings Youth Choir for several years. Ila also played for 234 weddings in 40 different churches in the Ohio Valley, as well as numerous funerals, keeping a journal of each one.

In the early 1980’s, Ila went back to teaching elementary music in the Harrison Hills School District. She loved her students dearly, and arranged many fabulous music programs where proud parents and grandparents could go and see their children perform.

In addition to music, Ila had a passion for playing cards. She was an avid Bridge player with many dear friends, and loved to play “Shanghai” and “Hand & Foot” with her family members, sometimes into the wee hours of the morning! She also enjoyed entertaining around the holidays, being an excellent cook and baker, as is evident by her collection of hundreds of cookbooks.

Ila was named “Citizen of the Year” in 1983 and was recently honored by the Cadiz Business

Association with the Cadiz Women’s Civic Club Community Service Award for her distinguished public service and contribution to the betterment of the community.

She was a past member of the Women’s Golf Association at the Cadiz Country Club as well as a member of a bowling league at JD Lanes. Ila was blessed to have many wonderful friends in her life, and she cherished the time that she spent with each of them.

She was a devoted wife, wonderful mother, and very proud grandmother.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 67 years, Robert G. Walrath in July of 2018; her sister Barbara and brother-in-law James R. Mansfield of Lakeland, Fla.; and her nephew, Norman E. Mansfield, also of Lakeland.

She is survived by her four children, Brent (Song) Walrath of Cadiz, Kristie (Dennis) Sims of Bloomingdale, Bruce (Trisha) Walrath of Los Angeles, CA, and Tracy (Jay) Squires of Woodland Park, CO; 9 grandchildren, Korey, Justin Brennan (Cayla) and McCall Sims, Kelsey (Santiago) Ossa, Haley and Bryce Walrath, and Faye and Jem Walrath; and a great grandson, Cashton Lee Sims and a greatgranddaughter on the way. Also surviving is her very special niece, Rhonda (Jonathan) Weston of Colorado.

Visitation will be held on Sunday, Nov. 10 from 1-5 p.m. at the Clark-Kirkland Funeral Home in Cadiz. There will also be visitation from 10 a.m. until time of service at 11 a.m., Monday, Nov. 11, 2019 at the Presbyterian Church of Cadiz with Rev. John Harris officiating.

Burial will follow at Greenwood Cemetery in Hopedale.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Presbyterian Church of Cadiz, 154 West Market St., Cadiz, OH 43907.

Helen Irene McFadden Keyser Helen Irene McFadden Keyser, 103, of Akron, Ohio passed away Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2019 at her residence of Ohio Living Rockynol. She was born July 29, 1916 in Nottingham Township of Harrison County, Ohio,

daughter of the late Howard and Ella May (Kirkpatrick) McFadden.

She married John L. Keyser in 1937 and celebrated 54 years of marriage together before his death in 1992. She enjoyed being a homemaker, as she loved to cook and especially bake pies.

Her grandchildren still remember her wonderful chocolate chip cookies!

She served as organist at the Scio Presbyterian Church, Scio, Ohio for 50 years, as well as serving as an elder, clerk of session, treasurer and a Gray Lady for the Red Cross.

She is preceded in death by her loving husband, twin sons, daughter, Marjorie, two brothers, Dwight and John, and

two sisters, Evelyn and Barbara Jean.

Surviving are sister, Patricia, and brother-in-law Jack Ossler, son-in-law Stephen Billy, grandchildren Stephen (Annette) Billy, Karen (Daniel) Elliott, Douglas Billy, Susan (Richard) Brooks and greatgrandchildren Maren, Erin, Joel and Reese, as well as her extended family of many loving nieces and nephews.

A final “thank you” on behalf of Helen to Dr. Coleman and the staff at Rockynol for their many years of loving care.

A memorial service will be held on Friday, Nov. 29 at 1 p.m. at the Scio Presbyterian Church, Eastport St, Scio Ohio.

A private interment will follow at Longview Cemetery, New Athens, Ohio.

James E. Figgins James E. Figgins, age 76, of Zanesville, passed away on Thursday, Nov. 7, 2019 at his home. He was born on Jan. 9, 1943 to the late Max and Katheryn (Bostic) Figgins in California.

James proudly served his country as a member of the US

Army during Vietnam. In his free time, he enjoyed fishing, hunting, and collecting. James also loved Corvettes and dreamed of having one for himself.

He is survived by his sons, Jason (Mary Ann) Figgins and Bryan (Rebecca) Figgins; grandchildren, Jayson, Cory, and Toryn Figgins.

In addition to his parents, James

is preceded in death by his beloved wife, Vicki (Carson) Figgins.

In accordance with his wishes, no public services will be held at this time.

Looking back at timbering in Harrison County

Timbering with oxen and horses somewhere in Harrison County Circa 1910. It is said that the deforestation of this area is what led to the 1913 great Ohio flood. The 1913 flood led to the formation of the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy which created Tappan, Clendening, and Piedmont lakes in Harrison County. The building to Tappan Lake caused the town of Tappan and Laceyville to disappear. This will be part of the presentation "Forgotten Communities of Harrison County" that will be at the Deersville Community Theatre, Sunday, Nov. 17 at 3 p.m. The Deersville Players will serve food, by donation before the presentation.

YORKVILLE – On the field of World War II Memorial Stadium in Jefferson County last Friday, Harrison Central senior Cale McAfee donned a Huskies football jersey for the final time, and it’s safe to say the two-way star certainly left his mark.

McAfee scored four touchdowns in total. Rushing for 161-yards on nine carries with three trips to the end-zone; pulling down another 40-yards on five catches through the air and a touchdown. To sum it up, it was quite the night for McAfee and the Huskies. They cruised to their eighth straight victory over Buckeye Local in what has become a one-sided V.A.L.E.S. rivalry series.

The 39-6 final score doesn’t hide much of a backstory. As the scoreboard reflected, Harrison was pretty much in control from the moment they stepped off of the bus. The Huskies outmanned the Panthers early and never left room for the home team to make up any ground.

“What a great way for our team, and specifically, our seniors to end their year and careers. I couldn’t be more proud of a group of seniors than I am of this group. They are all class. They were the glue that kept our team together through rough waters.

They could have packed it in early on when things weren’t going well, but they didn’t. They couldn’t because that is not who they are. Our young kids moving forward can learn a lot from this group. They are selfless, all of high character, and they absolutely love this program. A coach can’t ask for much more than that,” Head Coach Anthony Hayes commented following his second victory in as many outings against the Panthers.

The first quarter ended with the visiting Huskies up 14-0, thanks to a one-yard McAfee touchdown dive and a pick-six on defense courtesy of James Brooks. Freshman kicker Jace Madzia booted both PATs. Brooks will be a player to watch in 2020, as he flashed signs of being quite the gamebreaker for the Huskies in ’19. One of those signs came when the Panthers were driving to score in the second half. Brooks once again picked off the Panthers QB, this time however it was an acrobatic one-handed snag that would lead to a 97-yard McAfee touchdown sprint on the very next snap from scrimmage.

Things weren’t much easier for the Panthers in the second quarter. Huskies Quarterback Kobe Mitchell tossed for two touchdowns in the frame, one to

Brooks finished with two interceptions, one of which he returned to house for a touchdown.

McAfee from four-yards out, and another to Jonathan Vermillion for a 29-yard touchdown strike.

The Panthers did get on the board until roughly midway through the quarter, but it would prove to be their only points on the night.

Head Coach Anthony Hayes and his squad enjoyed a 26-6 advantage at the break, a lead that would only grow following the intermission.

“We knew coming in that Buckeye had some good athletes and that they were much improved in comparison to seasons past. Credit to them and Coach Herbert. He had his guys prepared and ready to play. They gave us their best shot and we answered,” Hayes stated.

Answered swiftly they certainly did.

McAfee’s 97-yard touchdown on the ground ended up being the longer version of his 54-yard touchdown run in the fourth. Madzia was true on his PAT in the fourth to round scoring for both teams.

The Huskies finished the season 4-6 for the second straight year under Hayes and his staff. Last year Harrison won three straight to close out the slate, this year they won three of their last five, setting the momentum in the right direction for next season.

“All week long our kids were focused on what our job was.

That is a reflection of my coaching staff. Our coaches were locked in all week and did a heck of job preparing our kids and making sure that our young men were ready to go. It was about as sharp as I have seen us all year.

This victory could be the thing that catapults us into the offseason, keeps us hungry and looking to play in week 11 next year,” Hayes remarked.

While the Huskies have dominated the series, the V.A.L.E.S. game and trophy signify much more than a final score. Getting into that patriotic spirit, both squads sported alternate helmet designs in the contest. Harrison went with a

stripe to recognize all of Harrison County’s American Legion posts (Scio 482, Hopedale 682, and Cadiz 34) and an American Flag interlocking HC. Buckeye came out with an American Flag decal that represented both Harrison and Buckeye with a V.A.L.E.S. insignia down the middle. All in all, the matchup has incorporated so much more than football over the years of its existence. Teams and coaching staffs are treated to a meal early in the week, and pre-game ceremonies have gotten more decorated and celebrated as the years go on. Its’s an event that Hayes and his program couldn’t be happier to be a part of.

“The V.A.L.E.S. game is a great rivalry with a great message. We appreciate our service people and our veterans. What they have sacrificed for us so that we can go out and ultimately play a game, speaks volumes of their love for our country. We can all learn something from those men and women,” Hayes declared.

The Huskies have now won eight of the nine V.A.L.E.S. matchups that began under the special designation in 2011. In total, Harrison leads the overall series 8-4. Buckeye won the first ever “trophy” game in ’11, but has failed to capture the coveted piece ever since. Interestingly enough, for the first time in school history for the Huskies, 2019-20 will see both the Coal Bucket trophy and the V.A.L.E.S. trophy remain in the new case all year long at Harrison Central High School.

Looking ahead to the postseason, six of Harrison’s opponents qualified for week 11 this year, with another two (Martins Ferry and Steubenvile Catholic Central) narrowly missing the cut. Starting this weekend, St. Clairsville, Bellaire, Garaway, Toronto, Oak Glen, and Indian Creek will suit up looking to work their way through the postseason gauntlet.

Harrison Hills teachers awarded Best Practice Grants

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Three Harrison Hills teachers: Julia Carman, Heather Soos and LeAnn Van Camp all were awarded Best Practice grants from the Jefferson County Educational Service Center (JCESC), which was announced by Amber Yorko at last Thursday’s Harrison Hills Board of Education (HHBOE) meeting.

Yorko stated that they received over 60 grant applications with 17 of them coming from Harrison Hills.

She then applauded the three who were awarded their grants and each took turns speaking briefly on what their specific grant covered.

“So, thank you for the work that you do with your students and continued success,” Yorko told them.

Carmen went to bat first calling her grant work the “Passion Project,” which she said they worked on one day per week. She said the students have a choice in

The Jefferson County Educational Service Center presented three $600 Best Practice Grants to Harrison Hills City School teachers for their innovative projects during the Oct. 31 school board meeting.

what they want to learn in that particular project.

“What are they here in the world to do? What are they going to do to make a difference and make the world a better place?” she said adding that with help from

the ChromeBooks and other technology, they proceeded to use everything at their disposal and “seek out professionals.” She said they just plain explored and looked for guidance, which resulted in them producing

four separate topics.

The four categories were environmental, anti-bullying, mental wellness and technology within Harrison County.

“So, we’ll be seeking advice and tips from professionals,

we’ll get books on topic as well as whole body puppets to do literacy skits and have those puppets be like the spokesperson for that topic,” Carman explained.

Soos spoke next emphasizing that the entire first grade team came up with the idea for a speaking and listening center. She said the goal was to get more students into reading stating that many actually struggle with that skill.

“When they hear when they’re read to, when they hear the words they usually become better readers,” she explained. This led to them putting on headphones in their reading and listening center and listening to stories, which she said takes the place for some who don’t get read to at home, for example. She said it is really effective in the lower grades where studies have shown.

“The more words they hear the better reader they become,” she said.

Van Camp spoke of her grant, which dealt with a “freedom quilt” for the three

local American Legions. She said her third and fourth grade classes will be learning applique and sewing. Her grant is for the purchase of sewing machines and all materials related.

“We don’t have home economics anymore at the high school level so the kids aren’t getting it anywhere,” Van Camp said. “So I decided we needed to put some more fiber arts in our program…”

She said her ambition was for the students to give back to the community “where the veterans have given their life, their service, their willingness to help us retain our freedom and so for here, we needed to give back.”

She said she intends to bring in members of the community who have experience and show the kids how to do it right while allowing the older students to use the sewing machines.

“So it’s bringing something from the past into the present that these kids probably have never done before, never seen…” Van Camp explained.

Harrison Hills Board of Education releases five-year forecast

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – The Harrison Hills City School District is sitting fairly healthy, according to the five-year forecast Treasurer Roxane Harding revealed at last Thursday’s Harrison Hills Board of Education (HHBOE) meeting.

She stated that expenditures will not exceed revenue in any of the five years reaching into 2024 if everything holds steady. According to the graph presented, expenditures were just above $25 million in 2017, where they dipped down to $20 million in 2018 where estimates see a steady climb into 2020 where it levels off all the way into 2024 at just under $30 million.

Revenues are expected to remain above expenditures through 2024 and a cash balance that is expected to soar to nearly $55 million by then, as well.

“We are required by the state to have a 30 to 60-day cash balance when we end our fiscal year,” Harding explained.

She demonstrated via the PowerPoint presentation that their 30 to 60day cash balance is to remain above what the state requires.

Revenue sources related to their general fund show real estate taxes pull in the largest amount of school revenue at 56 percent and another large chunk coming from the State Foundation program in the amount of 36 percent. Other state and local funding make up the remaining amounts at 4

percent each.

Harding also covered the issue surrounding House Bill 166 where the funding “flat lined or held everybody at the fiscal year 19 levels for foundation for the next two years.” This means for the next two years “no district will receive anything less than what they received in fiscal year 19.”

“They’re calling it flat funding for all the districts in the state and that is represented in the forecast,” Harding said. Along those same lines as state funding remains flat with just over $10 million per year, local funding is estimated to dip in 2020 to just over $15 million, which is down from the 2019 actual figure of just under $20 million. But those figures are estimated to rise again through

2022 and remain steady through 2024 at a little over $20 million.

Taxation revenue shows the vast majority coming from personal property and public utilities (PPU) at over 71 percent combined. And out of the total value of “local valuation adjusted tax year 2018” the amount comes to $652,050,951 from the areas collected within the school’s district. Harding stated that the school receives approximately $15 million of that money.

“This graph has changed largely over my tenure here,” Harding told the board. She explained that what was once “around 60 percent” for residential tax income out of the total value, is now listed at 33.36 percent. She said the largest slice of revenue now comes from the PPU

at nearly 38 percent.

“And that is due to all the infrastructure and everything occurring related to the gas lines and the pipelines…” Harding stated. The total valuation for minerals is listed at just over $146,800,000, or 22.51 percent of the total value, adding that it does fluctuate.

“That is not something that is determined by our local county auditor, that is determined by the various oil companies and the paperwork they file at the state level,” Harding explained. She acknowledged that the tax year 2018 did drop.

“We will continue to monitor our valuation concerns such as the $28.9 million drop in Mineral Values in TY 2018,” she wrote in her report. In her overview she stated that the district’s increased value would probably impact their funding if the state would adopt a new formula in the future, but that has not happened as of now.

“If we collect the local taxes we estimate we are on target to be a financially secure district long term,” she also said in her report.

For general fund expenditures from FY17 through FY24, she said

that costs are “expected to continue to rise long term.” And the graph does depict rising from just under $20 million for actual 2019 then rocketing up to a little more than an estimated $25 million in expenditures for 2020. That dips down just a bit for 2021 but the estimation continues to rise for three consecutive years beginning in 2022, which puts those figures again above $25 million.

Under wages and benefits for general fund expenditures, she said they are keeping those figures under control where those two figures combined take up a total of 55.4 percent of their expenditures.

On another good note, a Workers Compensation Grant awarded back in February in the amount of $40,000, allowed them to order equipment for the janitorial department.

Covering their levy history, Harding stated that they should not have to seek any new levies “through 2024 and possibly much longer.” She reminded the board that they have passed only one new levy since 1991 and in summary stated that the District was on target to remain financially stable “long term.”

Sall back in court, faces revocation

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – Natasha Sall, the Jewett resident who was found guilty of corrupting another, promoting prostitution and endangering children, felonies of the second and third degree, was back in common pleas court Tuesday morning.

Sall, who appeared without an attorney, now faces the state’s motion to revoke her Community Based Control (CBC) sanctions for testing positive “twice” for methamphetamines and amphetamines.

Sall’s hearing barely lasted five minutes as Judge T. Shawn Hervey entered a not guilty plea on her behalf until she is appointed an attorney. Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey Bruzese told the court that

her court appearance was initially set up as an evidentiary hearing with bond already being set back on Oct. 8.

Sall told Hervey that she had already filled out the form necessary to have an attorney appointed to her but Hervey told her the form was not in his file. He also acknowledged that it was not necessarily her fault but told her the case could not move forward without her being represented. Sall would fill out another form before leaving the courthouse where she was to be rescheduled for a later date.

Roderick Cowans of Cadiz, who is facing an assault charge, appeared with his attorney Bernie Battistel but Hervey noted Cowans’ intent on changing counsel. Hervey, though, stated that the court would not release

Public Notice

Battistel from his obligations until a notice of appearance by new counsel was filed with the court.

Cowans did submit a request for a continuance just the day before and Hervey said a new trial date would be set because “I can’t wait any longer.” Cowans apologized for submitting his request on such a late date to which Hervey noted.

He also explained that the disagreement between Cowans and Battistel was basically on “how to proceed.”

Hervey repeated that he was not going to continue the case any longer and Cowans would be receiving a new trial date in the mail. When questioned, Battistel said Cowans’ request would not affect him representing his client.

Also, Edward Marks of Barberton was sent to prison for six months based on his evidentiary hearing.
