Cheshire
ponders animal
ordinances
By Dean Wright
deanwright@civitasmedia.com

CHESHIRE —
Cheshire village
council is debating
a change in its
existing ordinances
concerning dogs
wandering loose
about the area.
According to
Mandee Roush,
council president,
Gallia Dog Warden
Laurie Cardillo and
Gallia Sheriff Joe
Browning appeared
at the discussion
Thursday. Browning
was reportedly
present at the
meeting to discuss
contractual security
arrangements with
the village. The dog
warden was present
specifically on the
animal issue.
“Over the course
of the last several
months, residents
had come to council
members, not directly
at meetings but out
in the community,
with some concerns,”
Roush said. “The
majority of the
concerns were
related to animal
control and property
maintenance.”
According to
Roush, letters were
distributed in the
community to address
the concern with
lists of ordinances
regarding animal
laws. Residents
were concerned that
some pet owners in
the community had
animals wandering
the neighborhoods
that had reportedly
acted aggressively
to individuals
near them. Two
individuals were
reportedly addressed
at the meeting, one
of whom is a council
member, in regard to
their pets reportedly
wandering the
community.
One ordinance
within Cheshire

states an individual
cannot possess more
than three dogs in
village limits. The
individuals addressed
in question,
according to Roush,
had more than three
animals. There was
some controversy
as to whether
the individuals
should make more
stringent efforts to
pen their animals,
give up some of the
animals and keep
them from tearing
into trash around
the neighborhood.
Dogs wandering the
neighborhood were
reportedly to be
around the number of
five or more.
Roush said after
some discussion,
a compromise
was reached with
the addressed
dog owners at the
council. Because
council discussed
potentially changing
the ordinance and the
number of animals
allowed to be kept
within village limits,
supposedly, within 10
days of the meeting,
the owners were
to pen or restrain
their dogs to avoid
further complaints
and would be allowed
to keep the animals.
According to Roush,
if the animals are not
restrained, a fine may
be instituted that
could continue to
accrue costs until the
animals are managed.
Cardillo has told
the Tribune in the
past about concerns
with residences
in Gallia County
having too many
dogs and owners
potentially being
unable to care for
them without proper
paperwork and
facilities. The nature
of the discussion in
Cheshire attracted
her attention.

Post 27 gets new commander
By Dean Wright
deanwright@civitasmedia.com

GALLIPOLIS — The
Ohio State Highway Patrol
Post 27 on Jackson Pike,
which serves both Meigs
Call
and Gallia counties, bid
goodbye to its past commander, Lt. Max Norris, last week
and welcomes new commander Lt.
Barry Call.
According to Call, the commander of the post in Athens County,
Lt. George Harlow, was honored
with a retirement ceremony Friday
as various commanders switched
posts. Norris is from the Athens
area and will be now serve as its
OSHP commander. Call is from
the Gallipolis area and previously
served in Ironton. Call’s post in
Ironton will be ﬁlled by the former
commander of the Portsmouth
post.
“I was born and raised here,”

“It was a little bittersweet leaving the guys and gals
down there (in Ironton). I’ve been there for over three
years. I am excited to come back home and get back
to the grassroots, so to speak.”
— Lt. Barry Call,
Commander Ohio State Highway Patrol Post 27

Call said about Gallia County.
Call, a 1989 Ohio Valley Christian School graduate, started with
the patrol as a cadet dispatcher in
1991 in Gallipolis at the former
post across the road on Jackson
Pike which is now where the Gallia
County Health Department sits.
He went to the patrol academy in
1992 and graduated in June of that
year. He was stationed in the Marietta patrol post for about a year
shortly after his graduation. He
transferred to the Gallipolis post
in 1993. He served as a trooper
with the Gallipolis post until 2001
before joining the OSHP Ofﬁce of

Investigative Services at district
headquarters in Jackson. He served
there roughly six years before
being promoted to sergeant and
was transferred to the Athens post.
After serving a short time at the
Athens post, Call transferred back
to the Gallipolis post. He remained
as a sergeant in Gallipolis until
2013 and was promoted to lieutenant and assumed command of the
Ironton post.
“Now that it’s 2016, I’ve been
able to transfer back home,” Call
said.

LORAIN, Ohio (AP)
— Human remains that
ofﬁcials believe are those
of an Ohio man missing
since 2002 are badly deteriorated, a coroner said,
and authorities are trying
to make a positive identiﬁcation with dental records
and partial tattoos.
The Lorain County
Coroner’s ofﬁce told
The Morning Journal in
Lorain on Thursday that
it hopes to have a positive
identiﬁcation next week.
Clarence Thomas was
reported missing from
Lorain in early 2003,
several months after he
disappeared from the city
about 30 miles west of
Cleveland. Authorities
found what they believe
are the 31-year-old man’s
remains on June 22
buried 2 feet below the
surface of a rural farmer’s
ﬁeld in Lorain County.
Police say a man serving multiple life sentences
for several murder cases
in West Virginia is a
suspect in Thomas’ disappearance and pointed
them to his remains. The
investigation is continuing.
He also had a domestic
violence warrant with
Lorain police, police said,
and his family initially
thought he was homeless.
Detective Buddy Sivert
said separate investigations were conducted in
2003, 2004 and 2007.
Police then received a tip
about a month ago.
Sivert said Thomas’
family also believed initially that he may have
traveled to New York City
and ran into some trouble
there.

“Only the Bob Evans
Farm Festival brings more
people to our community
for a single weekend.”
“The Hoop Project is
certainly one of the many
ideas we have supported
from the beginning,” Marsha said. “While neither
of us ever played basketball, we felt this project
would showcase our community to others in the
state and elsewhere.”
Marsha said she
remembers the ﬁrst year
and how special it was
watching the volunteers
create the courts and the
young artisans paint their
masterpieces of sponsors
and honorees on those
courts.
“And, the icing on the
cake was to witness the
opening ceremonies and
the multitude of people
this event attracted to
our area,” she said. “It’s
been amazing to see The

Hoop Project continue
to grow, which not only
displays our beautiful
little river town and
fabulous park, but also
generates ﬁnancial beneﬁts for businesses in
the area. It’s a win-win
situation.”
The Hoop Project
2016, a three-on-three
full court basketball
tournament organized
by the Downtown Revitalization Project in
Gallipolis City Park, will
take place July 16-17.
The Smiths will ofﬁcially start the games
and be honored during
the Dunk Contest. The
deadline to register is 6
p.m. July 11.

A husband and wife
team, Jeff and Marsha
Smith, were both born
and raised in Gallia
County and were surprised, honored and
humbled when they were
asked to serve as Hoop
Masters for this year’s
event.
Both feel supporting community events,
and those who organize
them, is important to the
growth of Gallia County.
“We want to see our
community grow and are
thrilled to see new leadership developing and
investing their time, tal-

ents and treasures here,”
Marsha said. “It’s exciting
to see these new activities
‘birthed’ by these millennials.”
Speciﬁcally about The
Hoop Project, Jeff said
the event is the result of
a group of young men
and women, dedicated
to making a difference in
their community, investing their time, talent and
resources into making
their hometown prosperous again.
“The Hoop Project
has brought hundreds of
young athletes, coaches
and parents to our community. While there is
a signiﬁcant economic
beneﬁt, it also exposes
scores of ﬁrst-time visitors to the Gallia County
seat, which has the most
beautiful park and the
most stunning Ohio River
view from Pittsburgh
to Cincinnati,” he said.

News outlets report 40-year-old William P. Jackson pleaded guilty Thursday

to ﬁrst-degree murder in Martha Tyler’s
death.
Authorities say Tyler was found strangled at her home with her hands bound
and a bag over her head in March 2014.
Jackson also pleaded guilty to four
counts of fraudulent use of an access
device after using the victim’s debit
card to withdraw money and make several purchases following the killing.
Records show that Jackson had previously done yard work for Tyler in
exchange for food and money.
Jackson said he was under the inﬂuence of a cocktail of drugs the night of
the slaying.
He is scheduled to be sentenced Sept.

Friday the shortfall was largely due to
dramatic drops in coal and natural gas
tax collections.
Kiss said the severance tax brought
in $260 million in the 2016 budget year,
$177 million less than in 2015. Kiss
said severance tax is the state’s third
largest revenue source behind income
and sales taxes.
Deputy Revenue Secretary Mark
Muchow said severance tax revenue
from coal fell by 30 percent and revenue
from natural gas dropped 62 percent in
2016. Natural gas sales were up 8 percent, but prices fell dramatically.
Still, Kiss said the shortfall didn’t
reach the $464 million worst-case scenario his ofﬁce had said was possible.

NEWS FROM AROUND THE BUCKEYE STATE

Man awarded $500K in
punitive damages in case
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A federal jury says
DuPont should pay $500,000 in punitive damages to
an Ohio man in a chemical illness lawsuit.
The Columbus Dispatch reports the jury decided
the amount Friday.
Earlier this week, the same jury said DuPont Co.
acted with malice by dumping chemical-tainted water
from its West Virginia plant into the Ohio River.
Jurors awarded $5.1 million in compensatory damages to the Washington County man, who developed
cancer.
A DuPont spokesman said Friday the verdict will be
appealed, and jurors were misled about the risk of the
chemical exposure.
The man, David Freeman, says he got testicular
cancer because of C8 used to make Teﬂon.
There are 3,500 lawsuits alleging a link between illnesses and the Wilmington, Delaware-based chemical
company’s discharging of the chemical into the river.

Court: Clinic suit over
abortion changes can proceed
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A Cleveland abortion
clinic’s legal challenge to restrictions placed into a
2013 state budget bill has been allowed to proceed.
In a 2-1 decision Thursday, a panel of the 8th District Ohio Court of Appeals in Cuyahoga County on
Thursday reversed a trial court’s ruling that PretermCleveland lacked standing to sue the state over the
abortion-related amendments.
Changes included prohibiting public hospitals from
providing emergency backup under required transfer
agreements and requiring clinics to check for a fetal
heartbeat before conducting an abortion.
The panel said the provisions clearly caused injury
to Preterm, giving it standing. That sent the case
back to trial court, where Preterm can make its primary legal claim that the amendments violated Ohio’s
single-subject rule.
The Ohio attorney general hadn’t decided Friday
whether to appeal.

Ohio appeals court upholds
Toledo’s use of traffic cameras
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio appeals court
has upheld Toledo’s right to use trafﬁc enforcement
cameras, though the issue is headed for the state’s
Supreme Court.
The (Toledo) Blade reports the 6th District Court
of Appeals in Lucas County issued the 2-1 ruling on
Friday. The decision afﬁrms a lower court’s ruling last
year that portions of a state law restricting the use
of such cameras unconstitutionally violates the city’s
home-rule powers.
The appellate court has sent the case to the Ohio
Supreme Court “for review and ﬁnal determination”
on the home-rule issue. Similar cases in Dayton and
Springﬁeld are already before the high court.
A spokesman for the state’s attorney general says
the merits of the issue will ultimately be decided by
the Ohio Supreme Court.

ofﬁcers and other victims in Dallas.
The attack on the ofﬁcers began Thursday at a
downtown Dallas protest over the recent killings
by police of black men in Louisiana and Minnesota. Five ofﬁcers were killed and seven others were
wounded. Two civilians were also wounded.
Kasich’s order on Friday follows a similar federal proclamation by Barack Obama.
The Republican governor’s order directs the
ﬂags in Ohio to be ﬂown at half-mast until Tuesday.

Rescue crews find body in
Ottawa River
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — Rescue crews say they
have found a body in the Ottawa River in northwest Ohio after a jet ski was spotted idling in the
water with no one on it.
The Washington Township Fire Department
says a water rescue team found the body near the
jet ski off the shore of a Toledo neighborhood.
Crews had responded to a call from a passer-by
that came in around 7:30 a.m. Friday.
Authorities didn’t immediately release other
details about the body. A Lucas County coroner’s
investigator was on the scene Friday.
Authorities say the operator of the jet ski might
have run into a bridge support.

Ex-Traficant aide gets
prison in mortgage scam
AKRON, Ohio (AP) — A staff attorney for
former U.S. Rep. James Traﬁcant who testiﬁed at
the Ohio Democrat’s corruption trial is heading to
prison after pleading guilty to federal bank fraud
charges.
Cleveland.com reports 52-year-old R. Allen
Sinclair of Suwanee, Georgia, was sentenced
Thursday to more than three years behind bars
and ordered to pay $830,000 in restitution. He
pleaded guilty to bank fraud charges in connection
with a mortgage investment scam.
Sinclair made headlines in 2002 when he
testiﬁed at Traﬁcant’s trial that he kicked back
$2,500 a month from his congressional salary
to the Youngstown-area congressman. Traﬁcant
served seven years in federal prison after a jury in
Cleveland found him guilty of bribery and other
charges. He died in 2014 after a tractor tipped
over on him.

Board co-chair ‘nervous’
about GOP convention
CINCINNATI (AP) — A leader of the state’s special
board on community-police relations said Friday she’s
increasingly concerned about safety at the upcoming
Republican National Convention in Cleveland.
“I’m nervous as hell,” said Nina Turner, a former
Democratic state senator from Cleveland who cochairs the Ohio Collaborative Community-Police
Advisory Board, an initiative of Republican Gov. John
Kasich.
She said the issue was already personally worrisome
for her because her son is a law enforcement ofﬁcer
who will be on duty and the convention is coming to
“my backyard.”
There now is added worry after a sniper attack
killed ﬁve Dallas police ofﬁcers Thursday night during
a protest over fatal police shootings of black men this
week in Louisiana and Minnesota.
Turner said the Republican convention “was going
to be a powder keg all along.”
“This just puts more gasoline and dynamite and the
match on top of all of that,” she said.
The July 18-21 convention, featuring Donald Trump
as the presumptive Republican presidential nominee,
already was expected to attract large groups of protesters, including supporters and opponents of Trump
and advocates for other causes.
Authorities in Cleveland, which has been roiled in
recent years by police shootings of blacks that helped
lead to Kasich’s initiative, have insisted they’re ready
to put on a safe convention.
John Born, the Collaborative’s co-chair and Ohio’s
director of public safety, said there will be a campaign
to ask the public to help the effort to keep the convention and the city safe. He said federal, state and local
authorities have been working together on thorough
preparations.
“I will tell you that we try to do everything we possibly can to prepare for any potential action that can
occur,” Born said.
Meanwhile, a spokeswoman for the Franklin County
sheriff’s ofﬁce said Friday it had withdrawn its offer
to send more than 30 deputies to Cleveland to assist
with convention security, saying the sheriff hadn’t
received all the information requested. Several other
departments had earlier withdrawn assistance offers
over insurance coverage questions and other issues.
Some police departments around Ohio were adopting special policies heading into the weekend aimed at
increasing ofﬁcer safety.
Cincinnati police spokeswoman Tiffaney Hardy
said police will use two-ofﬁcer patrols throughout
the weekend then will re-evaluate. A police union
ofﬁcial said some ofﬁcers had expressed a desire to
be in two-ofﬁcer cars instead of alone for increased
safety.
Union ofﬁcials elsewhere said the Franklin County
sheriff’s ofﬁce was switching to two-ofﬁcer cars
for its patrols, while the president of the Cleveland
Police Patrolmen’s Association said the department
sent out an order late Thursday taking one-ofﬁcer
cars off the street and having ofﬁcers double up.
Toledo police also planned to double up on patrols.

telephone calls, was launched by NASA from Cape
Canaveral.
On this date:
In 1509, theologian John Calvin, a key ﬁgure of
the Protestant Reformation, was born in Noyon,
Picardy, France.
In 1890, Wyoming became the 44th state.
In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson personally
delivered the Treaty of Versailles to the Senate
and urged its ratiﬁcation. (However, the Senate
rejected it.)
In 1925, jury selection took place in Dayton,
Tennessee, in the trial of John T. Scopes, charged
with violating the law by teaching Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. (Scopes was convicted and ﬁned,
but the verdict was overturned on a technicality.)
In 1929, American paper currency was reduced
in size as the government began issuing bills that
were approximately 25 percent smaller.
In 1940, during World War II, the Battle of Britain began as the Luftwaffe started attacking southern England. (The Royal Air Force was ultimately
victorious.)
In 1943, during World War II, U.S. and British
forces invaded Sicily.
In 1951, armistice talks aimed at ending the
Korean War began at Kaesong.
In 1973, the Bahamas became fully independent
after three centuries of British colonial rule. John
Paul Getty III, the teenage grandson of the oil
tycoon, was abducted in Rome by kidnappers who
cut off his ear when his family was slow to meet
their ransom demands; young Getty was released
in December 1973 for nearly $3 million.
In 1985, the Greenpeace protest ship Rainbow
Warrior was sunk with explosives in Auckland,
New Zealand, by French intelligence agents; one
activist was killed. Bowing to pressure from irate
customers, the Coca-Cola Co. said it would resume
selling old-formula Coke, while continuing to sell
New Coke.
In 1991, Boris N. Yeltsin took the oath of ofﬁce
as the ﬁrst elected president of the Russian republic. President George H.W. Bush lifted economic
sanctions against South Africa.
In 1999, the United States women’s soccer team
won the World Cup, beating China 5-4 on penalty
kicks after 120 minutes of scoreless play at the
Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.
Ten years ago: A Manhattan town house was
leveled by an explosion; authorities say a suicidal
doctor set off the blast to avoid selling the $4
million mansion in a divorce settlement. (The
doctor, Nicholas Bartha, died ﬁve days later.)
A section of ceiling in Boston’s Big Dig tunnel
collapsed, killing a car passenger. A Pakistani
passenger plane crashed, killing all 45 people on
board.
Five years ago: The space shuttle Atlantis
docked with the International Space Station, the
ﬁnal such hookup in orbit. An overloaded cruise
vessel sank in Russia’s Volga River, killing 122
people. Some 70 people were killed when a train
derailed in northern India. Britain’s best-selling
Sunday tabloid the News of the World, brought
down by a phone-hacking scandal, signed off with
a simple front page message: “THANK YOU &amp;
GOODBYE.”
One year ago: Katherine Archuleta, the embattled head of the government’s Ofﬁce of Personnel
Management, abruptly stepped down, bowing to
mounting pressure following the unprecedented

entrusted to protect. To the cheers of thousands,
South Carolina pulled the Confederate ﬂag from

Newspaper filled
with positive news
Dear Editor,
Many of us love Gallia County and are extremely
proud of all it offers. When I opened the July 7 edition of the paper to Page 2, I was happy to read the
positive news happening in Gallia County.
This is the kind of news I want to hear and read
most of the time. Rotary Club, a community supporter, was presented with its efforts to bring information

about food safety health to its members and public.
The Tribune needs to let the public know more about
all of the community groups and what they are doing
and have to offer.
In addition to Rotary article, there was also a picture of a lovely, carved and polished stone donated by
Cletus Harder to the City of Gallipolis. Thank you,
Cletus Harder, for your lovely donation to Gallipolis.
To the Tribune, I just want to say, “Keep printing
articles and pictures that support our community.”

Served ‘better together’
The Kitchen Table joins
forces with PVH Auxiliary

WORKING TOGETHER
As leaders of the Pleasant Valley
Hospital Auxiliary’s Community
Outreach Committee, the hope is,
The Kitchen Table’s reach will now
be even further, supported by this
new partnership with PVH and its
auxiliary. Free lunches for children,
free community meals and a second
Lip Sync Battle, are all planned in the
coming weeks.

Staff Report

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Peas
and carrots, bacon and eggs, butter and
everything - some things are just “better
together.”
“Better Together” is a slogan Pleasant
Valley Hospital became familiar with
when establishing an afﬁliation with
Cabell Huntington Hospital, and now,
the PVH Auxiliary has welcomed The
Kitchen Table into its organization.
The Kitchen Table began back in February, born from the idea that making
room for one more person, one meal at
a time, might be a bit of kindness, and
sustenance, the community needed.
Starting out small but certainly not
slow, The Kitchen Table began serving
free meals out of The Meeting House
and then held a standing-room-only
fundraiser which brought all facets of
the community out to support their
neighbors, with the Inaugural Lip Sync
Battle, also held at The Meeting House.
Following, were more community
meals and the establishment of a summer meals program for children called
the “Kid’s Kafe,” where members of The
Kitchen Table travel to multiple locations across the county, on the same
day, and feed children at the same time.
So far, since the “Kid’s Kafe” started in
June, over 400 free meals have already
been distributed to area children.
The efforts did not go unnoticed and
The Kitchen Table began talking with
PVH and its auxiliary about joining
forces - the general consensus was, they
could be “better together.”
“I’m extremely pleased to have this

organization join our auxiliary and
become part of its efforts to reach
the community,” Glen Washington,
FACHE, PVH CEO, said on Friday.
“They will ﬁt in well with the goals of
our auxiliary volunteers.”
Washington also speciﬁcally spoke
about the “Kid’s Kafe” program and
how it reﬂected a common goal
between the hospital and auxiliary
members, to provide outreach to children, stressing healthy eating and meeting nutritional needs.
“Hunger is easily overlooked,” Washington said, talking about the food insecurity in the region.
The Kitchen Table will keep its name
but has taken on the role of the auxiliary’s community outreach committee.
Beverly Ridenour, president of the
PVH Auxiliary, said she was excited for
the outreach programs these new auxiliary members will bring to the table.
“I’m glad we’ve joined forces to fulﬁll
needs in the community,” Ridenour
said.
As leaders of the auxiliary’s community outreach committee, the hope is, The
Kitchen Table’s reach will now be even
further, supported by this new partnership with PVH and its auxiliary.
As for The Kitchen Table, its volunteers echoed the same sentiments

on Friday when this new chapter was
announced for their big idea that began
small, only a few months ago. That
sentiment being, “together is always
better” when it comes to what happens
around The Kitchen Table.
The Kitchen Table volunteers are
already planning some major fundraising events to feed the community as
well as promote outreach and fellowship among neighbors. The next “Kid’s
Kafe” event will be from noon to 1 p.m.,
Friday, July 15 with a free lunch served
simultaneously at Ashton Baptist
Church in Ashton, PVH Wellness Center in Point Pleasant, New Haven Fire
Department in New Haven, Pleasant
Valley Apartments in Point Pleasant.
The summer meals program is for children ages 18 and under.

The next free community meal will be
from 5-8 p.m., July 23 in the parking lot
at the PVH Wellness Center. The meal
will feature a cookout and live music.
Then, at 6 p.m., Aug. 20 at the PPJ/
SHS Wedge Auditorium, “Lip Sync
Battle: The Sequel” will be presented.
The lineup is being ﬁnalized and will be
announced soon.
The Pleasant Valley Hospital Auxiliary was organized in 1959 to provide
volunteer services, promote community
understanding and raise funds for PVH.
For more information about donating
time and talent with Pleasant Valley
Hospital’s Auxiliary, or to donate to the
auxiliary’s community outreach committee, The Kitchen Table, please call 304675-4340. Also, The Kitchen Table and

cope when it happened again.
Warfel had moved to a motel
with his surviving daughter, now
8, and investigators found cocaine
in their room after arresting him
at a mall near Cleveland once
Ember’s body was found.
Medical examiners couldn’t
determine a cause of death
because of decomposition but did ﬁnd
traces of cocaine in her hair samples.
Warfel’s attorney has said the girl was
born with severe medical problems.

Authorities initially alleged that trash
in the girl’s room was meant to hide the
smell, but Warfel’s attorney said that
wasn’t true and Warfel denied trying to
cover up the body.
Warfel, 35, was convicted on charges
including tampering with evidence and
drug abuse. His sentence was less than
what prosecutors sought.
Defense attorney Michael O’Shea,
who expects to appeal, said in many
ways the case was based on ﬁrst impressions.

the next bimonthly meeting at 1 p.m. July 11 in the

Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War is a congressionally chartered organization founded for charitable,
fraternal, patriotic and educational purposes, and is
the sole heir to the Grand Army of the Republic. The
group will be preparing for the annual Bufﬁngton
Island ceremony that will take place on July 16 in

is encouraged to pay the ultimate honor to that ancestor by joining our ranks. “It is not what you pay to be

Let the scoffers scoff and
ridicule the idea. Let them
decide that the words brown,

moving our athletics forward in a positive way.
I hope to increase our numbers for our athletic
teams. More participation is what I’m hoping for,

Ohio football team schedules set
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

The Meigs Marauders
and River Valley Raiders
have realistic goals for
a Tri-Valley Conference
Ohio Division championship.
South Gallia, Southern
and Eastern are aiming
to be better in the TVCHocking Division.
And Gallia Academy
is entering the Ohio Valley Conference with an
almost entirely new-look
schedule.
Those are the backdrops for the six Ohio
Valley Publishing area’s
Ohio football teams,
as the 2016 season
schedules have been
announced.
Of the six a season
ago, a senior-laden River
Valley squad went 7-3 in
the regular season — and
qualiﬁed for the state
playoffs (Division V) for
the ﬁrst time in school
history.
The South Gallia Rebels also advanced to the
smallest-school Division
VII state playoffs, and
posted a 6-4 mark along
with Meigs in Division IV.
The Southern Tornadoes sported a 4-6 record,
while the Eastern Eagles
and Gallia Academy Blue
Devils endured respective
2-8 and 1-9 campaigns.
The Marauders’ opponents are exactly the
same as last season, while
the Raiders’ slate sees
one game moved up and
two new non-league foes.
Meigs once again
opens against non-league

Gallia Academy (Aug.
26), followed by back-toback non-league home
games against AmandaClearcreek (Sept. 2) and
Logan (Sept. 9).
The Gallia Academy
matchup, which will take
place at Memorial Field in
Gallipolis this year, is set
for a 7 p.m. kickoff.
The only other out-ofconference contest for the
Marauders is at Jackson
on Oct. 14.
Meigs’ TVC-Ohio road
shows include Vinton
County (Sept. 16), Nelsonville-York (Sept. 30)
and Alexander (Oct. 28),
while the Marauders will
host River Valley (Sept.
23), Athens (Oct. 7) and
Wellston (Oct. 21).
As for the Raiders, last
year’s week-three game
against Eastern (Aug. 26)
is moved to the season
opener, while South Point
(Sept. 9) replaces Rock
Hill and Waverly (Oct.
28) replaces Shadyside in
the season ﬁnale.
River Valley’s only
other non-league duel is
at Gallia Academy, which
is set for Saturday, Sept.
3 at 7:30 p.m.
The Raiders’ only 7
p.m. kickoff is the South
Point bout.
In the TVC-Ohio, the
Silver and Black will host
Nelsonville-York (Sept.
16), Wellston (Sept. 30)
and Vinton County (Oct.
14), while traveling to
Meigs (Sept. 23), Alexander (Oct. 7) and Athens
(Oct. 21).
South Gallia, Southern
and Eastern’s opponents
are all the same from last

season — with the exception of Eastern hosting
non-league Green (Sept.
9) in week three, and
River Valley (Aug. 26)
vaulting up to the Eagles’
opener.
The Rebels’ two nonconference clashes are
their season opener
against visiting Sciotoville East (Aug. 26) and at
Manchester on Sept. 16.
Their TVC-Hocking
road dates include Federal Hocking (Sept. 2),
Eastern (Sept. 23), Wahama (Oct. 14) and Southern (Oct. 21), while home
games feature Trimble
(Sept. 9), Belpre (Sept.
30), Waterford (Oct. 7)
and Miller (Oct. 28).
The only 7 p.m. kickoff
for South Gallia is at Federal Hocking, which also
kicks off at 7 p.m. against
Southern and Eastern.
Speaking of 7 p.m.
kicks, Southern’s opening two tilts are against
non-leagues Portsmouth
Notre Dame (Aug. 26)
and at Frontier (Sept. 2).
The Tornadoes’ TVCHocking treks include
Wahama (Sept. 9), Belpre
(Sept. 23), Waterford
(Oct. 14) and Eastern
(Oct. 29), while home
games include Miller
(Sept. 16), Federal Hocking (Sept. 30), Trimble
(Oct. 7) and South Gallia
(Oct. 21).
For Eastern, it ventures
to Federal Hocking on
Sept. 17 for a Saturday
night game — with other
division road games at
Waterford (Sept. 30),
Wahama (Oct. 7) and Belpre (Oct. 21).

The Eagles will welcome Miller (Sept. 2),
South Gallia (Sept. 23),
Trimble (Oct. 14) and
Southern (Oct. 29) in the
TVC-Hocking.
Gallia Academy opens
its campaign against
three non-league OVParea clubs — Meigs (Aug.
26) and River Valley
(Sept. 3 at 7:30 p.m.) at
home and across-the-river
archrival Point Pleasant
(Sept. 9).
The Blue Devils’ ﬁnal
seven games are against
the OVC, including road
trips to Chesapeake
(Sept. 16), Portsmouth
(Sept. 23), Coal Grove
(Oct. 7) and Ironton
(Oct. 21) and home dates
against Fairland (Sept.
30), Rock Hill (Oct. 14)
and South Point (Oct.
28).
All of Gallia Academy’s
OVC affairs are set for 7
p.m.
This will also be the
ﬁrst season in three
decades in which Warren
is not on the Blue and
White’s schedule — nor
are fellow Southeastern
Ohio Athletic League
charter members Logan
and Jackson.
Gallia Academy ofﬁcially exited the soon-to-be
defunct SEOAL after the
last academic year.
Alexander in the seventeam TVC-Ohio, Trimble
in the nine-team TVCHocking and Ironton in
the now eight-team OVC
are the defending conference champions.

British Open: The American invasion of Royal Troon
By Doug Ferguson
AP Golf Writer

None in the crowd of roughly
10,000 suspected that when Bobby
Locke of South Africa tapped in for
a two-shot victory and a record score
in the British Open, he would be the
last player from outside the United
States to hoist the claret jug at Royal
Troon.
That was in 1950.
Since then, there have been six
Opens on the Ayrshire links in
Scotland, and six American winners.
Surprising?
It was to Phil Mickelson, who
cupped his hand under his chin and
stared in deep thought as he went
down the list of champions at Royal
Troon — Arnold Palmer and Tom
Weiskopf, Tom Watson and Mark
Calcavecchia, Justin Leonard and
Todd Hamilton.
The list complete, Mickelson came
to a predictable conclusion.
“I would be shocked if anyone
other than an American won this
year,” Lefty said with a laugh.
“There’s something to those trends.”
Really, it’s nothing more than a
coincidence.
The club motto at Royal Troon
translates to “as much by skill as by
strength,” which goes against the
American style of power golf that is
all about hitting it high and far and
ﬁring at ﬂags.
“I wouldn’t say it’s more
Americanized. Birkdale has probably
a little of that,” Jim Furyk said. “We
had a hell of a run there starting

in the mid-90s (10 victories by
Americans in 12 years). I think
it’s just one of those things that
happens.”
Odds are it can happen again.
Royal Troon has received enough
rain this spring — with more in the
forecast during the Open — that it
likely will play substantially softer,
meaning more targets and less
bounces that deﬁne the subtlety of
links golf.
As for the players?
Dustin Johnson and a dozen other
Americans are among the top 25 in
the world.
The attention has shifted away
from Jordan Spieth, who a year ago
came within one shot of a playoff in
his quest for the Grand Slam, to the
32-year-old Johnson, who is just now
starting to deliver on his awesome
potential.
Johnson broke through for his ﬁrst
major after four close calls, beating
Oakmont and the USGA to win the
U.S. Open by three shots.
After a week off to celebrate, he
chased down world No. 1 Jason Day
on the back nine at Firestone to win
a World Golf Championship.
Johnson was the 36-hole leader at
St. Andrews a year ago.
He contended in the ﬁnal round
at Royal St. George’s in 2011 until a
2-iron that sailed out-of-bounds.
He can handle links golf.
This will be his ﬁrst time seeing
Royal Troon, and he was intrigued
about the gentle start — three par
4s under 400 yards — and the tough
ﬁnish.

Troon is a tale of two nines.
The wind is helping on the shorter
outward nine holes.
This is where players score, and
it prompted Colin Montgomerie to
say that “if you’re not under par after
nine holes at Troon, you may as well
go to the clubhouse at Prestwick and
have lunch.”
Prestwick, the ﬁrst home of the
British Open, is next to Troon.
The inward nine turns back into
the wind and is relentless with tight
fairways and prickly gorse bushes.
“Probably the toughest ﬁnishing
stretch,” Paul Casey of England said.
“Carnoustie is tough, I think Troon is
a better set of ﬁnishing holes.”
Such is the stage for the 145th
Open Championship, where the list
of favorites keeps getting longer.
Spieth started the year at No. 1, has
won twice and nearly won the Masters,
and already is down to No. 3.
Day remains No. 1 after the
PGA champion added The Players
Championship, a World Golf
Championship and the Arnold
Palmer Invitational to his trophy
collection.
Of those 13 Americans in the top
25, seven have yet to win a major,
which has a small piece historical
relevance at Troon.
Four of the last Open champions
had never won a major until their
names were on the claret jug (and
they never won another).
Branden Grace of South Africa was
stunned to learn it had been 66 years
since someone outside the United
States had won the claret jug at Royal

Troon.
“Not to be funny, but hopefully an
international player can win it this
year,” he said.
Then he was told the last Royal
Troon champion was a fellow South
African.
“Now there’s some motivation,”
Grace said. “Might have to do some
history searching myself.”
Here’s one clue: Locke was a great
putter.
That’s what had been holding back
Johnson, a good putter who just had
not seen many disappear into the cup
until recently.
That’s what makes Spieth and Day
so dangerous.
And that could decide the fortunes
of Rory McIlroy, who won the claret
jug at Royal Liverpool in 2014 and
missed out on his title defense at
St. Andrews after injuring his ankle
playing soccer.
But it starts with Johnson, who
will try to become only the seventh
player in the last century to the U.S.
Open and British Open in the same
summer.
“I’ve thought for a couple years
… that’s he’s the most talented
player there is in golf,” former Open
champion David Duval said. “He has
that weapon that is just basically
unbeatable — driving the golf ball —
and as he’s improved his wedges …
that almost becomes unbeatable.”
And at Royal Troon, it doesn’t hurt
that he’s an American.
“I think there’s a good chance,”
Casey said, “that American streak
continues.”

Agency says his organization didn’t

Hacker who called

case facing charges

of systematic cheating by the
Russian Olympic team because
it lacked the authority to conduct such an inquiry.
Sir Craig Reedie tells the
Republican chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee in a
letter released Friday that the
agency’s investigative powers
were expanded early in 2015.
That’s ﬁve years after Sen.
John Thune of South Dakota
says the agency was made aware
of allegations of widespread
government-sanctioned doping
among Russian athletes.
Thune’s committee released
Reedie’s July 5 letter.
The senator wrote to Reedie
last month and asked him to
answer a series of questions
about the Russian doping scandal.
Thune says the response to
the Russian doping program has
called the agency’s strength and
credibility into question.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A man who aligned
himself with the hacker group Anonymous was
indicted by a federal grand jury for allegedly conspiring to access an online account to draw attention to a 2012 high school rape case in Ohio.
Deric Lostutter — who went by the online
name “KYAnonymous” — was charged in a conspiracy to gain access to the account and making
false statements to authorities. The indictment
said he joined with an unnamed co-conspirator
with the online name “JustBatCat” to hack into a
website and email account of a person who ran a
booster website for Steubenville High School athletic teams.
The two hackers aimed to “harass and intimidate (the person who ran the website) and others,
and gain publicity for their online identities,” the
indictment said. Their online actions in December
2013 drew media coverage to the rape case, in
part by re-posting a video showing a former Steubenville, Ohio, student joking about the rape.
Two Steubenville football players were convicted
in 2013 of raping a West Virginia girl at a party.
Lostutter’s attorney, Tor Ekeland of Brooklyn,
New York, said he was surprised that an indictment came down three years after Lostutter’s
home was raided by the FBI. Ekeland said he
found out about the indictment Thursday night
from a story on the internet.
“I don’t understand why they are prosecuting
somebody … who basically helped expose the rape
of a minor,” said Ekeland, a specialist in defending
people accused of computer crimes. He said the
harm caused by alleged hacking was “minimal.”
Lostutter told The Associated Press in 2013
that he posted the video on the fan website RollRedRoll, but he said someone else hacked into the
website. He also said he could end up going to jail
longer than the two convicted of raping the girl.
The indictment alleges Lostutter and the other
hacker gained access to password-protected
administrator account of the website. Later, Lostutter ﬁlmed a video of himself in a Guy Fawkes
mask and “issued threats that he would disclose
the personal identifying information of Steubenville High School students,” the indictment said.
Lostutter was ordered to appear before a federal
judge in Lexington on Aug. 9.
Lostutter did not reply Friday to an email. The
indictment issued Thursday says he faces up to 16
years in prison if convicted.

Larry Brown
resigning as coach
DALLAS (AP) — Larry
Brown says he is resigning
as SMU’s basketball coach,
ending a four-year run during
which the Mustangs made the
NCAA Tournament for the ﬁrst
time since 1993 and then were
banned from postseason play
last season.
The 75-year-old coach told
ESPN that he was resigning,
but didn’t say why. CBS Sports
was the ﬁrst to report the
decision, citing unidentiﬁed
sources.
Brown didn’t immediately
return a message left on his
cellphone by The Associated Press. There was also no
response from SMU ofﬁcials.
Brown had one season left on
his contract. He was suspended
for the ﬁrst nine games last season for NCAA violations that
also prevented the Mustangs
from going to their second consecutive NCAA Tournament.

“We heard from our students that

a joint statement. “We recognize there

and reasonableness in carrying out
these changes, especially with regard

off and we want athletic departments
to work in a sensible and appropriate
way to provide it. We want administrators to have some degree of ﬂexibility
in implementing these rules, but they
must be mindful that rest is important
to a student’s health, in addition to
their athletic and academic performance.”
Currently, athletes are generally
limited during the school year to 20
“countable hours” toward their sports
per week, with one day off. Countable
hours mostly cover practices, competition and conditioning, but does not

count travel to and from events. The
commissioners proposed expanding
the deﬁnition of required athletic activities to include but not be limited to
activities such as media requirements
and mandatory community service.
The proposal also includes a mandatory free-time block of eight hours
overnight.
The 14 extra off days will be on top
of the current required two calendar
days off per week outside the season.
The additional 14 days can be used
during the season if agreed to by
coaches and athletes.
“We believe we have found the right
balance between helping students participate in sports while also providing them with more down time,” the
commissioners said. “Different sports
have different demands and we think
the concepts we’ve agreed to will help
tens of thousands of students achieve
more balance as they pursue their academic and athletic commitments.”

Baseball player to transition careers
By Emily Gallagher
Associated Press

FAIRMONT, W.Va. —
After working hard to further his baseball career to
the minors of Major League
Baseball, David DeMoss
made a decision to switch
gears and head to law school.
A native of Monongah,
DeMoss started playing
baseball at a young age. At 9
years old, DeMoss played in
the Monongah Fringe Little
League, eventually going to
North Marion High School
where he took to the baseball
diamond from 1986-89.
As a left-hander playing
center ﬁeld, his senior year
of high school led to several
accolades, including being
named Class AAA All-State
captain, West Virginia Sports
Writers Player of the Year
and the West Virginia Gatorade State Player of the Year.
“I had a good senior year,
and I was lucky enough to
receive some of the highest
awards,” DeMoss said.
His time as a Husky was
so good that DeMoss was
drafted out of high school in
the 13th round by the Chicago Cubs. But wanting to
go to college, DeMoss didn’t
sign with the team.
After receiving several
Division I offers to play collegiate baseball, DeMoss chose
to attend West Virginia University and play for the late
Dale Ramsburg, who was
head coach at the time.
While at WVU, DeMoss
was enrolled in the business
and economic program and
majored in marketing.
After playing three seasons with the Mountaineers,
in 1992 DeMoss was drafted
in the 14th round, again by
the Chicago Cubs. This time,
DeMoss made his move to
the next level and signed

with the team.
From there, the 21-year-old
headed to training camp in
Mesa, Ariz. He would spend
two spring training seasons
there.
After his ﬁrst camp in Arizona, DeMoss began playing
in Geneva, New York, for
the Geneva Cubs, a SingleA program in the minors of
Major League Baseball. The
team was part of the New
York Penn League, the same
league that Morgantown’s
West Virginia Black Bears
are now a part of.
In his ﬁrst year, DeMoss
helped the team to a New
York Penn League Championship in 1992.
The following year, DeMoss returned to Geneva for
his second season in the
minors. During his time
with the team, DeMoss was
released.
Following his release,
DeMoss had an opportunity
to sign with the Milwaukee
Brewers but chose not to.
After working hard his
whole life toward a professional baseball career,
DeMoss came to the reality
of thinking he would never
make it to the major leagues.
“When you go through
your career with the goal
of reaching the top and the
harsh reality sets in that
you’re unable to do that …
it’s very frustrating,” DeMoss said.
As his baseball career
came to a close, DeMoss
made a transition back to
college, but this time it was
different. Instead of being a
student-athlete, he attended
WVU in 1994 as a student.
DeMoss graduated in 1995
with a Bachelor of Science in
business administration with
a marketing major.
DeMoss then looked for
full-time jobs in his ﬁeld but

would eventually ﬁnd out
that it wasn’t the career path
he wanted. That’s when he
turned to law school, attending Capital University in
Columbus, from 1996-98.
Being in school without
athletics, though, was something new for DeMoss. He
said it wasn’t a depressing
transition, but he had to
focus his attention on something other than baseball for
the ﬁrst time.
Although he changed his
career goals from playing
professional baseball to
becoming a lawyer, DeMoss
continued to keep an interest
in the sport by helping coach
the Fairmont Legion team
in the late 1990s during the
summer. In 1996, the team
was a state champion and
was one game away from the
national tournament.
After coaching for a bit and
going to law school, DeMoss
returned to Marion County
as an assistant prosecuting
attorney. He then went back
to Ohio and joined a law ﬁrm
for two years.
DeMoss would then get
into private practice as an
attorney in Fairmont. He
now focuses on mostly
domestic cases, but also has
his hands in criminal and
civil cases.
When he gets the opportunity to be part of a trial,
DeMoss’ competitive spirit
comes out.
Even though he has transitioned out of being a baseball player, DeMoss’ sports
career made an impact on
him that he’ll never forget.
From bonding during bus
rides and seeing other cities
and countries to learning
respect and hard work, he
said there are many attributes he has because of
sports that help him in his
law career.

Marquee event of World Series of Poker set to start in Vegas

From page 4B

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Daniel
Negreanu is a poker hall-of-famer and two-time World Series of
Poker player of the year. But he’s
never made it to the ﬁnal table
in the tournament’s marquee
Main Event in Las Vegas. Twice,
in 2001 and 2015, he missed by
just two seats.
This weekend, the 41-year-old
who lives in Las Vegas will give
it a 19th try.
“As long as I live, I’ll never
miss the Main Event,” Negreanu
said this week as play continued
at the 47th annual tournament
at the Rio All-Suite Hotel &amp;
Casino.
“It’s such a spectacle,” he said.
“It’s the one the mainstream
media pays attention to, and
everyone’s eyeballs in the industry are on that one event.”

Oct. 30, when they’ll return for
the Main Event championship
through Nov. 1. Dates were
moved this year to avoid conﬂicting with the U.S. presidential
election, tournament ofﬁcial
Seth Palansky said.
Poker pro Joe McKeehen, 25,
of North Wales, Pennsylvania,
won the gold bracelet last year
and a $7.68 million top prize.
This year’s Main Event is
expected to attract past winners
including Phil Hellmuth (1989),
Scotty Nguyen (1998) and possibly Chris Ferguson (2000), along
with other notables from the
poker, sports and entertainment
worlds, Palansky said.
Brazilian soccer star Neymar
has qualiﬁed, and former Australian cricket star Shane Warne
could play. Screen and television
actors who may return include
James Woods, Ray Romano,
Brad Garrett and Jennifer Tilly,
winner of a World Series of
Poker women’s event in 2005.
“Women have done very well
in this tournament, but it has
been 15 years since a woman

made the ﬁnal table,” Palansky
said. “Will this be the year?”
The top-rated female poker
pro in the world, Vanessa Selbst
of Brooklyn, New York, could be
a player to watch, Palansky said,
along with Kristen Bicknell,
from Ontario, Canada, and Loni
Harwood of Staten Island, New
York.
Bicknell already won a gold
bracelet this year, topping a ﬁeld
of more than 2,100 players in
the tournament’s $1,500 no-limit
hold’em bounty event.
Negreanu said it will be harder
to navigate through a ﬁeld of
7,000 players than in years past,
when the ﬁeld was several hundred. Just 350 players entered
the ﬁrst year he played, in 1998.
The winner also needs a little
luck, he said.
Palansky said players this year
will start with a stack of 50,000
chips, compared with 30,000 last
year. Players like chips, he said.
Chips have no monetary value in
the tournament, but a player is
eliminated when his or hers are
gone.
The pool of winners will be

1,000 — like last year — or 15
percent of the entry ﬁeld, whichever is greater.
“We paid 1,000 places in the
Main Event last year for the
ﬁrst time,” he said. “It was so
successful, we introduced it to
all (69) events this year. This
should have a nice halo effect for
the Main Event, as more people
should have the money to get
into the granddaddy of all poker
tournaments.”
Palansky said ofﬁcials won’t
know until the ﬁnal tables begin
play on Monday whether the
tournament will be affected by
ﬂuctuating values of the Euro
and Canadian and Australian
dollars following the United
Kingdom vote last month to
leave the European Union.
He said a large number of
Main Event players come from
England, Scotland, Wales and
Northern Ireland — third behind
the U.S. and Canada.
“We draw a lot of players from
the United Kingdom,” Palansky said. “We’re wondering if
the fence-sitters decide not to
come.”

Bossard makes room for ‘Bodies Revealed’ exhibit
Staff Report

GALLIPOLIS —Bossard
Memorial Library will later this
year be ﬁlled with preserved
human bodies that the public
will be able to see.
Premier Exhibitions Inc. ofﬁcials said the highly anticipated
“Bodies Revealed” exhibition
will open Sept. 25 at Bossard
Memorial Library. Seen by millions worldwide, the exhibition
features real, whole and partial
body specimens that have been
meticulously preserved through
an innovative process, giving
visitors the opportunity to view
the complexity of their own
organs and systems like never
before.
The exhibition takes visitors
through galleries providing an
up-close look inside the skel-

etal, muscular, reproductive,
respiratory, circulatory and
other systems of the human
body. Many of the whole body
specimens are displayed in
vivid athletic poses, allowing
the visitor to relate to everyday
activities. In addition, authentic human specimens illustrate
the damage caused to organs
by overeating and lack of exercise.
A healthy lung is featured
next to a black lung ravaged by
smoking in a vivid comparison
more powerful than any textbook image. The exhibition
will change the way people
see themselves. It is designed
to enlighten, empower, fascinate and inspire. Due to the
educational beneﬁts of this
exhibition, library ofﬁcials are
marketing Bodies Revealed to

schools, universities and medical facilities, as well as the general public.
The human body specimens
in the exhibition are preserved
through a revolutionary technique called polymer preservation. In this process, human
tissue is permanently preserved
using liquid silicone rubber
that is treated and hardened.
The end result is a rubberized
specimen, preserved to the
cellular level, showcasing the
complexity of the body’s many
bones, muscles, nerves, blood
vessels and organs. The fullbody specimens can take more
than a year to prepare.
“The educational impact of
this exhibition is immeasurable,” said Dr. Roy Glover,
professor emeritus of anatomy
and cell biology at the Uni-

versity of Michigan and chief
medical director for Bodies
Revealed. “For centuries, the
medical community has learned
about the inner workings of the
human body through the study
of real human bodies, and now
it’s possible for the public to
gain an intimate knowledge as
well.”
Beginning Sept. 9, the public
will be able to visit the library’s
website at www.bossardlibrary.
org to schedule a guaranteed
timed reservation for up to 10
people to view the exhibition.
Walk-in entry will be on a ﬁrstcome, ﬁrst-serve basis after all
reservations are fulﬁlled. The
exhibition will be on display
at the library from Sept. 25
through Dec. 31. Further information will be made available
soon on the library’s website.

“The library administration and board believe a great
return will be realized on the
investment of library resources
allocated to this exhibition
should one youth be compelled
to pursue a career in medicine,
life sciences, forensics or any
such related ﬁeld as a result
of experiencing the Bodies
Revealed exhibit, said Bossard
Library director Debbie Saunders. “We are pleased to offer
those in the tri-state area with
the unique opportunity to view
this amazing exhibition at no
admission cost. This exhibition is predominately shown
in larger, metropolitan areas
of the country. We are excited
to bring this exhibit closer to
home and provide this remarkable educational opportunity to
those in our region.”

Additionally, the health

services we provide to the
public. Quality improvement involves using
data from tools such as
customer satisfaction
surveys to analyze performance efforts. Workforce
development helps us to
identify areas where our
staff may want, or need,
additional training. Performance management is
the process of communication between employees
and supervisors to ensure
that agency and personal
goals are consistently
being met.
We also have our Emergency Operations Plan
in place. The EOP gives
us the framework to deal
with emergency situations that may threaten
the local public health
system, and to keep the
health department operational as much as possible
during a public health
emergency.
Meanwhile, it was necessary for us to develop
a branding policy, which
included adopting the
public health logo that

is designed and marketed by the National
Association of County
and City Ofﬁcials.
The public health logo
now is featured locally
on all signs, letters,
posters, business
cards, etc. related to
the MCHD. We soon
will unveil a new website that is more userfriendly.
All of these processes afford us an opportunity to improve
upon the provision
of the 10 essential
public health services
to Meigs County residents. However, the
extra work is not
cheap and requires
additional efforts on
behalf of the staff
and its governing
entity — the Board of
Health. We appreciate your support and
intend to apply for
PHAB accreditation
in 2018.

accreditation process,
