MIDDLEPORT —
Goodwill Industries is
celebrating National
Goodwill Week through
May 7, and the Middleport location at 786 N.
Second Ave. will have
an open house as part
of the week-long commemoration.
The open house is
scheduled for 2-4 p.m.
May 5. During that
time, the mayor of
Middleport will be on
hand with a proclamation and there will be a
special sale.
The typically busy
location saw shopper
Pam Barringer strolling through the store
this past Tuesday.
“There is such a big
variety in this store,”
Barringer said. “There
is always something
new to look at. I enjoy
shopping here, and
everyone is so friendly.”
Goodwill was founded
in 1902 in Boston by
the Rev. Edgar J. Helms,
a Methodist minister
and social innovator
who began collecting
used household goods
and clothing in wealthy
areas of the Boston.
Helms then hired and
trained people who
were economically disadvantaged to mend and
repair the used “goods”
that were then resold or
given to the people who
repaired them.

MIDDLEPORT — Meigs County sheriff’s deputies and Middleport police are continuing their
investigation into what they’re now
calling a homicide of an elderly
man who was found deceased in
his home Wednesday morning.
Meigs County Sheriff Keith
Wood said the body of Dale Miller,
74, was discovered after a call
was made to police to conduct a
routine well-being check. They
initiated the check at about 10:30
a.m. Wednesday at a home in the
600 block of High Street. Because
of the nature of the investigation,
Wood told Ohio Valley Publishing
earlier in the day that the Ohio
Bureau of Criminal Investigation
has been called to assist.
Miller’s cause of death was not
released.
Wood said it is imperative the
public contact authorities with any
information relating to the investigation. He said Miller’s car was
taken from the property with Ohio
license plate FRS9966. The vehicle
is a blue 1999 Ford extended cab

truck with silver stripe lightning
bolts on the vehicle’s side. It is a
two-wheel drive vehicle with a silver tailgate.
The vehicle was allegedly spotted Tuesday in Gallia County.
Wood asks the public to be cautious if they see the vehicle and to
not approach as the suspect inside
may be considered armed and dangerous. He urges the public to con-
tact the nearest law enforcement
agency if the vehicle is sighted.
Middleport residents were
shocked and saddened by Wednesday’s events. One neighbor shared
concerns that his children would
be very upset because “Miller was
a very good neighbor and the kids
loved him.”
Another neighbor said she felt
uneasy with the suspect still at
large and possibly in the area.

Staff Report
MARIETTA — Peoples
Bancorp Inc. officials say
results for the quarter
ended March 31, 2016,
reveal a net income of $8
million for the first quarter of 2016
The net income represents earnings per diluted
common share of $0.44.
In comparison, earnings
per diluted common
share were $0.14 for the
fourth quarter of 2015
and a loss per diluted
common share of $0.04
was reported for the first
quarter of 2015.
“We had a good start
to the year. Our annualized loan growth for the
quarter was in line with
our expectations and our
reported efficiency ratio
was slightly better than
our previously reported
guidance. On the loan
front, our consumer lending group had another
strong quarter, especially
the indirect business,”
said Chuck Sulerzyski,
president and CEO. “We
were able to generate
positive operating leverage during the quarter
compared to the first
quarter of 2015, and

THEIR VIEW
I hate turkeys!
I am not even sure I still like Thanksgiving dinner
right now.
How is it that a 25-pound bird can drag you around
in the early morning light, take you to the highest
adrenaline rush and then throw you down and stomp
on your spirit.
Oh, did I mention that they tend to do it day after
day, and at times their gobbling seems to almost be
mocking you as they stroll away in the
other direction? Something just has to
be done about these feathered devils of
the spring woods.
Here we are just finishing up the
second week of the four-week spring
gobbler season and I am considering
throwing in the towel. I feel like I have
climbed every mountain and then gotRoger
ten pushed down every rock covered,
Wolfe

Outdoors
county while chasing these devious
Columnist
Toms.
Granted, it isn’t all bad. It is always
an amazing sight to watch the sun come up over the
mountain while listening to the thunderous gobbles
rolling down the hollows. It definitely makes you feel
alive and gets the blood flowing with anticipation of
the hunt ahead.
Add in the lush green new growth emerging and
the ever present wildflowers that are in bloom this
time of year and it makes for a pretty spectacular
backdrop. Every now and then, some lucky hunters
are presented with a willing Tom that struts right into
the seductive calls of what he thinks is a lonesome hen
turkey and makes for a perfect and memorable morning in the woods.
This spring is the first year of the new earlier opening season, which is one week before the traditional
opening date. So far, the early time slot seems to be
meeting with some mixed reviews from the hunters.
Some hunters are enjoying the perks of being able
to see a little further in the woods and the more willing gobbles coming from the turkeys. Others are complaining that all the gobblers are still with hens and
aren’t about to leave their feathered companions for
the promise of a lonely hen in the next hollow.
Speaking from personal experience, I say both of
these groups are right on point. I have fought more
hens for that gobbler’s attention in the last two weeks
than I care to remember. That could be because I am
on the losing end of the battle when it comes to talking Jenny out of her long-bearded boyfriend.
One concern of the early week of the season is
centered around those very vocal and, at this point,
mobile hen turkeys. With the hens not yet sitting on
their nest of eggs, it puts them in harm’s way by having them wandering around in front of anxious hunters just itching to bag their bird.
This makes the number one rule of hunting even
more important. That number one rule it ALWAYS
MAKE SURE OF YOUR TARGET! Whether it is
small game or the biggest large game species, as hunters, we always have to positively identify our targets.
For the spring gobbler season, that means making
sure that turkey has a beard. Yes, some hens actually
do have a beard, and they are legal in the West Virginia spring gobbler season. Hopefully, every hunter can
refrain from pulling the trigger on the bearded hens
for the sake of the species.
I don’t know if it is the new early opening date of
the season, the weather, or the fact that all the turkeys
are “henned-up,” but so far this season, it has been
a rough one on my end. Just to give you an idea the
score is at least: Big Spring Tom — 99+, Roger the
Turkey Chaser — 0.
I won’t say that I have been beaten by the old bird,
but he sure has been kicking me while I am down
lately. I do have one thing to say, though — if there
are any long-bearded gobblers out there reading this,
the season is half over, so that means I have two full
weeks left and you better watch your tail feathers.
Revenge is sweet and I will be giving you a call!
(Shameless turkey hunting pun intended)

TODAY IN HISTORY...
Today is Thursday,
May 5, the 126th day of
2016. There are 240 days
left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in
History:
On May 5, 1866, the
town of Waterloo, New
York, observed a day
honoring the fallen soldiers of the Civil War.
(Although a proclamation signed by President
Lyndon B. Johnson in
1966 recognizes this
observance as the first
Memorial Day, the claim
is disputed by other communities who say they
were the first to create a
holiday commemorating
America’s war dead.)
On this date:
In 1821, Napoleon
Bonaparte, 51, died in
exile on the island of St.
Helena.
In 1862, Mexican
troops defeated French
occupying forces in the
Battle of Puebla.
In 1891, New York’s
Carnegie Hall (then
named “Music Hall”)
had its official opening
night, featuring Russian
composer Peter Ilyich
Tchaikovsky as a guest
conductor.
In 1925, schoolteacher
John T. Scopes was
charged in Tennessee
with violating a state law
that prohibited teaching
the theory of evolution.
(Scopes was found guilty,
but his conviction was
later set aside.)
In 1936, the Ethiopian
capital, Addis Ababa, fell
to Italian invaders.
In 1941, Ethiopian
Emperor Haile Selassie
returned to Addis Ababa
after the Italians were
driven out with the help
of Allied forces.
In 1945, in the only
fatal attack of its kind
during World War II, a
Japanese balloon bomb
exploded on Gearhart
Mountain in Oregon, killing the pregnant wife of
a minister and five children. Denmark and the
Netherlands were liberated as a German surren-
der went into effect.
In 1955, West Germany became a fully sovereign state. The baseball
musical “Damn Yankees”
opened on Broadway.
In 1961, astronaut
Alan B. Shepard Jr.
became America’s first
space traveler as he made
a 15-minute suborbital
flight aboard Mercury
capsule Freedom 7.
In 1973, Secretariat
won the Kentucky Derby,
the first of his Triple
Crown victories.
In 1981, Irish Republican Army hunger-striker
Bobby Sands died at the
Maze Prison in Northern
Ireland in his 66th day
without food.

Helms’ system worked and the Goodwill philosophy of “a hand up, not a hand out” was established.
According to Helms, the venture was an industrial program as well as a social service enterprise,
because it “provided a employment, training and
rehabilitation for people of limited employability,
and a source of temporary assistance for individuals whose resources were depleted.”
The Middleport retail store opened in 2004,
and is one of more than 3,000 stores that employ
approximately 300,000 workers.
Store Manager Cassandra Bagent came to the
Middleport location from Columbus three years
ago. She shared that she likes living here and that
it is a great place to raise children.
She enjoys working at Goodwill because she
meets interesting people and likes to keep busy.
She said they receive a lot of donations and that it
is nice to live in such a sharing region.
“I have met a lot of interesting people. It’s a
busy job and I’m OK with that,” she said. “It takes
a lot of experience to price the items that come
into our store. We look at the quality, condition
and brand before deciding on a price. There are
guidelines, but it all comes down to judgment.”
She spoke highly of the people who currently
work there.
“We make a good team,” she said, referring to
Debbi Pooler and Annie Dowler. “They are wonderful employees and very knowledgeable about
our inventory — and they are good with our customers.”
Now in their 65th year, Goodwill Industries has
become a $4 billion nonprofit organization. The
organization continues to enlist the help and support of local community volunteers to meet the
needs of the community they serve.

Ironmen mercy Blue Devils
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com
JACKSON — What
started outside the French
City over a week ago, and
ended inside the Apple
City on Tuesday, the Jackson Ironmen clinched their
share of the final Southeastern Ohio Athletic
League baseball championship — at the Blue Devils’
expense.
Amid two original
weather delays, a suspended game, a late washout on
Thursday, the scene shifting some 35 miles north
and even another delay,
the Ironmen — by scoring the game’s final nine
runs — mercy-ruled Gallia
Academy 11-1 at “Sparky”
Haller Field in Jackson.
The Ironmen, in the
opening inning on the
game’s original date of
April 26, scored twice —
then walked their way for
four runs in the fifth frame
before hitting for five runs
in the sixth stanza on
Tuesday.
Although Gallia Academy got an unearned run
in the fourth when play
resumed in Jackson, the
Blue Devils left the bases
loaded — and the Ironmen batted around twice
to eventually put the stake
in their third consecutive
SEOAL title.
The contest was called
following the sixth inning
with the 10-run mercy
rule.
With the win, the Red
and White raised its
record to 16-5, and shares
the one-time four-team
SEOAL championship
with Warren at 5-1.
Jackson and Warren
won on their home fields
against each other — with
one-run walkoff wins.
This marks the final
season for the SEOAL, as
Gallia Academy is now a
full-time member of the
Ohio Valley Conference,
and has clinched at least a
share of that league title in
its first year there.
The Blue Devils finished
with 14 league championships in baseball, while the
Ironmen amassed their
eighth — and their firstever three-peat.
The others came in
1976, 1982, 1996, 1997
and in 2008.
Jackson and Gallia
Academy shared the title
two years ago, as the Ironmen earned it outright last
season.
“The SEOAL is small
this year, but we’ll take
this,” said Jackson coach
Josh McGraw. “That’s
three championships in a
row and our seniors have
been there for all three of

them. I’m very proud of
those kids and they have
earned it. We’ll put this
last SEOAL championship
in our pocket and be proud
of it.”
Gallia Academy, the
Ironmen’s archrival, aimed
to spoil Jackson’s bid for a
shared crown — and was
within striking distance
after scoring its only run
in the bottom of the fourth
when play finally resumed.
Against Jackson ace
pitcher Hunter Sexton,
Jeremy Brumfield — on
the final at-bat prior to the
game getting suspended a
week ago — reached on a
leadoff error.
When play picked back
up on Tuesday — and Sexton still working for the
Ironmen — Ryan Terry
singled to center before
back-to-back two-out
walks to Tanner Allen and
Kole Carter, as Brumfield
scored on Carter’s run batted in.
However, Sexton —
who went the distance
for the Ironmen and only
allowed three hits with
five walks — struck out
his third Blue Devil of the
inning to leave the bases
loaded.
Sexton collected nine
strikeouts altogether,
including two apiece in the
second and sixth.
He faced four Blue Devils apiece in the second,
third and sixth stanzas,
while retiring the side
1-2-3 in the fifth.
Gallia Academy actually
left eight runners on base,
including seven through
the first four innings.
With the bases loaded in
the first — following Carter reaching on an error, a
Matt Bailey infield hit and
Anthony Sipple walking
— Sexton induced Brumfield into an inning-ending
6-4-3 double play.
With two outs in the
third, and Sipple in scoring position following a
fielder’s choice, Eric Ward
— after singling — was
chased down between first
and second by Jackson
catcher Billy Cooper, who
threw to second baseman Lukas White for the
tagout.
The only other Blue
Devil baserunner was
Braden Simms, on one-out
walks in the second and
sixth.
“That LOB (left on
base) stat has kind of been
a story to our season,”
said GAHS coach Rich
Corvin. “We work on that,
we work on putting the
ball in play and scoring the
runners, but you have to
tip your hat to those guys
(Ironmen). They got it
done when they needed to
and we didn’t.”
McGraw spoke of
Sexton and his Ironmen
defense in escaping potential jams.
“Our defense has
stepped up all year, but
we expect our defense to
make plays,” he said. “Our
pitchers love it. Just put
the ball over the plate and
if they hit, we will catch
it. That’s the name of the
game. When we can turn
a double play, we have to
turn a double play. You
have to make the plays on
defense, and we did that
both days against them
(Blue Devils).”
Offensively, the Ironmen
“walked” their way to victory.
Facing Carter, Cooper
led off with a double in the
game’s initial at-bat, then
advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt by White.
Carter then walked
consecutive Sexton, Tyler
Storms and Collin Massie,
with Massie getting the
RBI to cross Cooper.
Sexton then scored on
an error off the bat of Kendall Neal.
Carter quickly settled
down, striking out five in a
row starting in the second
inning — and actually

But when things
resumed Tuesday in the
top of the fifth, Carter
issued four straight walks
— to Josh Blackburn, Cooper, White and Sexton,
with Blackburn scoring on
Sexton’s walk and Cooper
racing home on a wild
pitch.
At that point, Brumfield
relieved Carter, who was
charged with five runs
with four being earned.
He struck out six, while
walking seven of the 21
Ironmen he faced.
“I thought we came out
relaxed today and got back
into it at 2-1, but obviously
the strike zone in the top
of the fifth had a lot to do
with today,” said Corvin.
“After you come out offensively and do that, it sucks
the wind out of you.”
“I think we scored two
runs in the fifth without
swinging the bat, but that’s
what we preach,” said
McGraw. “We’re not going
up there just hacking at
every pitch. We’re trying
to see strikes and wait for
them to throw something
in the zone. Walks are
great, we’ll take walks if
they are going to give it to
us. We made Carter throw
a lot of pitches and made
him work.”
The Ironmen added
two more runs in the
fifth off Brumfield — as
Massie walked to load the
bases, Sexton scored on
an infield hit by Neal, and
Storms scored on an RBIgroundout by Bryce Hall.
In the sixth, the Ironmen combined six hits,
two Gallia Academy errors
and a Storms sacrifice fly
for their five runs to put
the mercy rule into effect.
Cooper conked an RBItriple, and scored on an
overthrow error to make
it 8-1.
Blackburn, White, Sexton and Massie all singled
to left and scored in the
inning, as Hall had a single
drop in shallow center for
an RBI — and the 11th
and final run.
Incidentally, that was
the same final score in
the first meeting this year
between the two.
Only this time, it started
in Centenary and ended in
Jackson — with the Ironmen ending the SEOAL as
co-champs.
The Blue Devils fell to
14-9 with the loss, but had
a chance to clinch the outright OVC championship
on Wednesday — with
their final league tilt at
Rock Hill.

Bennett and Haley Wilson both

the setback, Kayla Lamb added one
run scored, while Brogan Richards
crossed home plate once.
Wahama committed four errors
in the game, while CCHS had five.
“This is something that we shoot
for every year,” second-year Wahama head coach Matt VanMeter said
of winning the sectional. “This
team has its sights set on a little bit
bigger things. We’ve never made
the state tournament and that’s
what were looking for. We’re moving on to the regionals and everybody’s going to be tough, whether
it’s Buffalo, Charleston Catholic or

White Falcons
blanked by
St. Marys, 4-0
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com
MASON, W.Va. —
Burned by the Devils.
The Wahama baseball
team suffered its fifth
loss in seven outings
Monday night following
a 4-0 setback to visiting
St. Marys in a non-conference matchup at J.C.
Cook Field in Mason
County.
The White Falcons
(15-7) outhit the Devils
(10-10) by a slim 7-6
overall margin, but
the hosts were unable
to produce any kind
of offense when their
opportunities popped
up. SMHS, on the other
hand, plated two runs
in the the top of the
third, then tacked on an
insurance run in each
of the fifth and seventh
frames while cruising to
the shutout decision.
Both teams stranded
nine runners on base,
with Wahama committing the only two errors
in the contest. Both
WHS miscues also led
to a pair of unearned
runs by night’s end.
Scoreless through
two complete, St.
Marys got things going
as Jonathan Davis
received a one-out walk
and advanced to second
on a Ty Flowers single.
Both runners advanced
to third on a passed
ball, then Davis scored
on an infield error that
allowed Branden Barnhart to reach safely for
a 1-0 edge.
Flowers later scored
on a bases loaded sacrifice fly to left, giving
the Devils a 2-0 cushion
midway through the
third inning.
The score remained
that way until the fifth
as Flowers led things
off with a single and
advanced to third on
a Barnhart double.
Michael Fox followed
with a sacrifice fly to
right that plated Flowers, giving the guests a
3-0 advantage.
Fox also scored in
the seventh on a bases
loaded fielder’s choice
by Hunter Smitley,
wrapping up the 4-0
outcome.
Wahama had a baserunner in each of its
seven innings at the
plate, but had only three
occasions in which the
lead runner made it second base. The hosts did
not have a baserunner
advance to third at any
point in the setback.
Flowers was the winning pitcher of record
after allowing seven
hits and four walks over
seven innings while
striking out five. Mason
Hicks suffered the loss
after surrendering two
earned runs, six hits
and six walks over
seven frames while fanning 10.
Jared Nutter led WHS
with three hits, followed
by Jared Oliver, Philip
Hoffman, Ricky Kearns
and Dalton Kearns with
a safety apiece.
Flowers paced SMHS
with three hits and two
runs scored, while Barnhart, Riley Bennett and
Wesley Parsons also
had a safety each for the
victors.

Overcoming Your Credit Card Crisis
The battle with credit card debt can
be a constant struggle against high
interest rates and monthly payments
that never seem to make a dent in
what you owe. How is it possible to
make monthly credit card payments
and never get anywhere?
This problem is caused by high
interest rates that eats up most of
your payments. Even though you
make your minimum payment,
you don’t make much headway
eliminating the debt.
Luckily, there’s a way to find debt
relief without incurring more
debts. Using certified credit
counseling like Consolidated
Credit, you can get professional
advice to identify the right solution for your needs.
A certified credit counselor
can review your options to
see which solution is best for
you. You can qualify for lower
interest rates or even eliminate
them, while consolidating your
credit card debt into one easy
payment to get you out of debt
faster. Every financial institution differs, but most people see
a reduction of total payments
by up to 30-50% as they pay off
debt faster.
Freedom from debt can
become a reality!
Call now
800-908-6923
(Fees may apply for voluntary participation in debt management - all counseling services are free.)
