POMEROY —“He was full of integrity.”
That’s how citizens of Meigs County
are remembering Howard Frank, who
passed away Jan. 26 at the age of 85,
after battling a long illness. Friends,
family, public officials and others have
recognized Frank, not just for his various
elected positions he’s held in his 50-plusyear career, but how much he helped his
community.
Frank was born April 8, 1929, in
Chester Township to Herman and Letita

“Mr. Frank leaves a legacy built on
serving others,” Smith said. “Meigs
County is a better place because of his
service and he will be sorely missed by
all who knew him.”
Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood,
who has been in public service for close
to 40 years, commended Frank on his
years of public service. Wood described
Frank as a “foundation stone who helped
get Meigs County on track” and someone who wanted to get to know and help
the community.
“He was one of those people you knew
you could carry a conversation with and
you were going to walk away with a
smile or a direction he was going to put
you on to go do something,” Wood said.

Attendance Initiative enters second week

By Lindsay Kriz

lkriz@civitasmedia.com

GALLIPOLIS — The trial began Monday
for one of two men charged in connection with
the shooting death of a Gallia County man.
John Sheets, 58, was found dead in February
2014 in his Wray Road home from an apparent
single gunshot wound to the back.
The next month, Chris Bowman, 34, of
Green Township, and Joseph Plymale, 27, of
Springfield Township, were indicted in connection with Sheets’ death.
In December 2014, Bowman pleaded guilty
to complicity to theft and receiving stolen
property and was sentenced to four years probation.
The jury heard opening statements from
both sides, with the prosecution stating that
Sheets’ murder was committed by Playmale,
who did so because of his desire for guns,
drugs and money.
The defense presented the jury with a different tale, stating that Plymale was only guilty
of selling stolen guns that Bowman brought
him, and implied that Bowman, and not Plymale, had murdered Sheets.
The first witness called to the stand was
Tammy Korn, John Sheets’ neighbor. Korn
spoke about her friendship with Sheets and
how he had been a mentor to her children.
She testified that she last spoke to Sheets the
weekend before his death — Feb. 1-2, 2014.
Korn said on the day Sheets was allegedly
murdered — Feb. 3, 2014 — she and her children decided to go sleighing mid-afternoon.
While walking close to Sheets’ house, Korn
said she heard a single gunshot from his
residence. Initially, Korn thought something
might be fishy about the gunshot, but then
decided that Sheets may have been target practicing with someone he was selling a gun to,
she said.

The Meigs High School Attendance Initiative has entered its second week. The high school has partnered with local businesses in an
effort to encourage students to attend school. All students who attain perfect attendance each week for the remainder of the school
year will have their name placed into a weekly drawing. The winner of each drawing will receive a prize that has been donated by one of
the local businesses. The business featured for the week of Jan. 26 was Powell’s Food Fair of Pomeroy. Tyson Herman (center) was the
recipient of a $20 gift card to Powell’s Food Fair. Presenting the award is Cliff Kennedy, left, Meigs High School guidance counselor, along

Kasich’s Ohio budget changes
Julie Carr Smyth
Associated Press

COLUMBUS — Larger businesses would see
tax hikes and wealthier
school districts would
see less state aid under
a proposed state budget
that Gov. John Kasich
described on Monday as
his most ambitious yet.
Kasich’s $72.3 billion,
two-year spending blueprint takes on the tobacco and oil-and-gas lobbies with proposed tax
increases on cigarettes
and drilling, respectively,
while directing record
spending toward K-12
and higher education,
development disabilities
and mental health.
“At the end of the day,
we want everybody to
have a chance to rise,”
Kasich said at a news
conference.
But Kasich cautioned
that added funding
comes with the personal
responsibility for Ohioans that he talked about
in his inaugural address
last month.
“It should be pretty
clear that we expect

something from you
when we reach out our
hand to help you,” he
said.
Budget Director Tim
Keen said the budget
continues to fund an
expansion of the Medicaid health program
approved through a
legislative maneuver last
session.
The administration
extended Medicaid
eligibility in 2013 to
cover thousands more
low-income residents, as
allowed under President
Barack Obama’s health
care law. Kasich needs
legislative approval to
continue to fund it after
June.
The Republican governor also proposes capping tuition increases in
2016 at 2 percent and
freezing tuition rates in
2017. The budget also
creates a $120 million
fund aimed at reducing
accumulated student
debt among Ohioans.
Kasich said a task
force he appointed, led
by former Ohio State
University President
Gordon Gee, will con-

tinue to analyze what’s
contributing to college
being so expensive and
work to drive costs
down.
The budget also
encourages high schools
to add more advanced
placement classes that
allow students to earn
college credit earlier and
encourages a system
where college credit is
made available for expertise gained outside the
classroom. The budget
also allows community
colleges to offer bachelor’s degrees in areas
where the training isn’t
available at a traditional
four-year institution.
Kasich said the administration is proposing
an adjustment to Ohio’s
school funding formula
that accounts for a district’s income level and
directs more resources
to those districts with
less ability to pay.
The income-tax rate
would be cut by 23 percent over the next two
years under the plan. By
2017, the top marginal
income-tax rate will have
fallen from about 5.9

percent in 2011 to 4.1
percent.
The plan also raises
the rate on Ohio’s
decade-old commercial
activity tax, or CAT,
for businesses for the
first time — from 0.26
percent to 0.32 percent.
Kasich said the increase
would be used to pay
for eliminating income
taxes on all small businesses with annual gross
receipts of $2 million or
less.
It also raises the sale
tax and attaches it to
more items. Tax Commissioner Joe Testa said
the broadening is far less
than what was proposed
in the last budget.
The second-term governor’s tax increase on
cigarettes — up from
$1.25 to $2.25 a pack
— comes in tandem
with a series of initiatives to reduce smoking
statewide. Those include
banning cigarettes and
tobacco in primary and
secondary schools and
requiring public colleges
and universities to go
tobacco-free.

TOLEDO (AP) — The mayor of Toledo was
heavily sedated and in critical condition at a
hospital Monday, a day after having a heart
attack while driving during a snowstorm.
Mayor D. Michael Collins, 70, was on his way
home after a news conference about the storm
and may have been checking road conditions
when he went into cardiac arrest and crashed
into a utility pole at about 2 p.m. Sunday.
A passer-by who saw the mayor’s crashed
SUV gave him CPR until emergency personnel
arrived, said Dr. Christopher Cooper, a cardiologist and dean of the University of Toledo
medical school. Collins was not conscious at the
time.
Collins is being treated at the University of
Toledo Medical Center, where he was sedated
and being closely monitored in the intensive
care unit, Cooper said in a statement Monday
morning. It’s too early to give a prognosis on
his recovery, he said.
City Council President Paula Hicks-Hudson
was sworn in as acting mayor Sunday afternoon
and praised the unidentified passer-by who rendered first aid.
“The act of this one person who was there at
our mayor’s time of need shows this is a great
city,” Hicks-Hudson said at a news conference
Sunday.
Collins, a retired police officer and former city
councilman, became mayor in January 2014.
The independent’s first year in office has been
tumultuous. Shortly after he was sworn in, two
city firefighters died battling an apartment fire
and the city endured the worst winter in its history.
Summer brought widespread, toxic algae
blooms in Lake Erie that caused the city to
cut off water service to 400,000 people in the
Toledo area. Collins then found himself trying
to keep Fiat Chrysler Automobiles from moving
its Jeep Wrangler production line out of Toledo.

Today in History …
Today is Tuesday, Feb. 3, the 34th day of 2015.
There are 331 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On Feb. 3, 1865, President Abraham Lincoln and
Confederate Vice President Alexander H. Stephens
held a shipboard peace conference off the Virginia
coast; the talks deadlocked over the issue of Southern autonomy.
On this date:
In 1783, Spain formally recognized American independence.
In 1913, the 16th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, providing for a federal income tax, was ratified.
In 1924, the 28th president of the United States,
Woodrow Wilson, died in Washington, D.C., at age
67.
In 1930, the chief justice of the United States, William Howard Taft, resigned for health reasons. (He
died just over a month later.)
In 1943, during World War II, the U.S. transport
ship Dorchester, which was carrying troops to Greenland, sank after being hit by a German torpedo; of
the more than 900 men aboard, only some 230 survived.
In 1959, rock-and-roll stars Buddy Holly, Ritchie
Valens and J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson died
in a small plane crash near Clear Lake, Iowa. An
American Airlines Lockheed Electra crashed into
New York’s East River, killing 65 of the 73 people on
board.
In 1966, the Soviet probe Luna 9 became the first
manmade object to make a soft landing on the moon.
In 1969, “Candid Camera” creator Allen Funt and
his family were aboard an Eastern Airlines flight that
was hijacked to Cuba. (Fellow passengers who recognized Funt thought the whole thing was a stunt for
his TV show; in an article written for The Associated
Press, Funt said the whole episode “looked like a bad
movie.”)
In 1972, the XI Olympic Winter Games opened in
Sapporo, Japan.
In 1989, Alfredo Stroessner, president of Paraguay
for more than three decades, was overthrown in a
military coup.
In 1994, the space shuttle Discovery lifted off, carrying Sergei Krikalev, the first Russian cosmonaut to
fly aboard a U.S. spacecraft.
In 1998, Texas executed Karla Faye Tucker, 38, for
the pickax killings of two people in 1983; she was
the first woman executed in the United States since
1984. A U.S. Marine plane sliced through the cable of
a ski gondola in Italy, sending the car plunging hundreds of feet, killing all 20 people inside.
Ten years ago: Alberto Gonzales won Senate
confirmation as attorney general. An interim report
detailed conflicts of interest and flawed management
in the U.N. oil-for-food program. An Afghan passenger jet carrying 104 people crashed east of Kabul,
killing all on board.
Five years ago: A suicide bomber killed seven
people in northwestern Pakistan, including three
U.S. soldiers. Motivational speaker James Arthur
Ray was arrested on manslaughter charges after
three people died following a northern Arizona sweat
lodge ceremony he’d led in Oct. 2009. (Ray was
convicted of three counts of negligent homicide and
spent nearly two years in prison.) Actress Frances
Reid, 95, died in Los Angeles.
One year ago: U.S. stocks tumbled, pushing the
Dow Jones industrial average down more than 320
points after reports of sluggish U.S growth added to
investor worries about the global economy. Former
Vice President Walter Mondale’s wife, Joan, died in
St. Paul, Minnesota, at age 83.
Today’s Birthdays: Comedian Shelley Berman is
90. Former Sen. Paul Sarbanes, D-Md., is 82. Football Hall-of-Famer Fran Tarkenton is 75. Actress
Bridget Hanley is 74. Actress Blythe Danner is 72.
Singer Dennis Edwards is 72. Football Hall-of-Famer Bob Griese is 70. Singer-guitarist Dave Davies
(The Kinks) is 68. Singer Melanie is 68. Actress
Morgan Fairchild is 65. Actress Pamela Franklin is
65. Actor Nathan Lane is 59. Rock musician Lee

Their view

The White House’s Emily Post moment
The White House has
now become a stickler
for protocol, especially
when it comes to relations
between the two political
branches.
The new persnicketiness
arises from House Speaker
John Boehner’s invitation
to Israeli Prime Minister
Bibi Netanyahu to speak
before a joint session of
Congress in March. The
invite is being denounced
as a major breach and
new low in Washington
because he didn’t, as had
been the traditional practice with such invitations,
coordinate with the White
House.
As far as violations of
the separation of powers in the Obama era, it’s
hard to see how this even
comes close to registering. Maybe Emily Post
wouldn’t approve, and
with a different administration it would be worth
honoring every courtesy,
but we are far beyond that
now.
President Barack
Obama has a notoriously
piratical attitude toward
Congress. He deliberately
and gleefully trampled
all over its role as the
lawmaking branch, and
cast aside his own as the
executor of the laws. He
has distorted the constitutional order to suit his

to impose further sanctions against Iran and
even called members of
Congress to argue against
the idea.
The legislation in question is bipartisan, and
reasonable enough. Sponsored by Sens. Robert
Menendez, D-N.J., and
Mark Kirk, R-Ill., it would
restore sanctions that have
been loosened on Iran in
the event there is no deal
by the new June deadline
for negotiations. And it
would steadily tighten
them thereafter. The
White House is worried
that the prospect of more
sanctions will destroy its
delicate dynamic with
Iran, although Iran has
continued to extend its
tentacles in Yemen, Syria
and Iraq without any fear
of spooking us.
In a congressional
hearing last week, Sen.
Menendez lambasted the
administration line on the
sanctions bill that “sounds
like talking points that
come straight out of Tehran.” That is from a leading foreign-policy voice of
the president’s own party.
At least the unwelcome
guest, Bibi Netanyahu,
will be more polite.

Editorial

Obama’s folly on college savings plans
Even by the standards of his own
administration, President Obama’s
latest fumble was an unforced error.
In his State of the Union address, he
boldly proposed to scrap the popular college savings vehicles known
as 529 plans. The accounts, which
permit money to be withdrawn
tax-free in order to cover education
expenses, are considered very popular among middle-class families. Yet
the president presented them as an
obstacle to what he called a new
“middle-class economics.”
What happened? Part of the problem was a myopic, bean-counter
view of economics in general. Statistically speaking, no more than 3 percent of Americans use the accounts,
according to a 2012 study issued by
the federal government.
But an even bigger part of the
problem is the administration’s narrow, cynical view of what it means

to be middle class. That same
report, for instance, concluded that
the families that did use 529s “tended to be much wealthier than those
without 529 accounts,” as Reuters
observed.
Turns out, in an economy where
federal over-regulation incentivizes
parents paying full price for college
to squeeze out every possible advantage, those with higher incomes
can use 529s strategically to blunt
the force of the tax code. Of course,
according to the tax code, the higher your income, the richer you are
— a plain falsehood that has driven
all too much of the Democrats’ rhetoric around economic inequality.
For the Obama administration,
one look at a modest program
favored by high earners was all it
took to put it under suspicion.
And, in a rare moment of shared
sanity, everyone from John Boehner

to Nancy Pelosi agreed that the
president was wrong.
And so it fell to an unnamed
White House official to declare the
proposal dead. “Given it has become
such a distraction,” the New
York Times reported, the official
explained that the administration
was in fact “not going to ask Congress to pass the 529 provision.”
Distraction indeed. Make no mistake, the American people should
not be distracted by the administration’s disappearing act. The logic
behind Mr. Obama’s audacious plan
to kill 529s is endemic to his White
House, which relentlessly fights for
the middle class only to the degree
that it is permitted to define it. In a
free society, economics works differently — not that the president has
ever cared about that.

Eagles outlast
Meigs in 2OT

Fuel Rio women in rout of Midway

By Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — The Eastern
boys basketball team snapped a 13-game losing skid, but it also needed an extra eight
minutes to do so Saturday night during a
72-71 double overtime victory over visiting
Meigs in a non-conference matchup between
Meigs County programs at the Eagle’s Nest.
The host Eagles (2-14) trailed 17-14 after
eight minutes of play, then the Marauders
(5-11) followed with a small 9-8 second quarter spurt to secure a 26-22 edge headed into
halftime.
EHS — which was held to four first half
field goals — nearly doubled that output in
the third quarter as the hosts made a 23-16
charge to claim a 45-42 advantage entering
the fourth. MHS answered with an 18-15 run
to end regulation knotted up at 60-all.
Both teams scored six points in the first
overtime, with Eastern hitting three field
goals while Meigs netted a trifecta and three
free throws for a 66-all tie.
In the second four-minute frame, both
teams made a field goal apiece while adding
the rest in free throws. The Marauders netted 3-of-8 chances, while the Green and Gold
sank 4-of-7 attempts. Cameron Richmond
made what proved to be the difference maker
after netting 1-of-2 attempts late, giving EHS
a 72-71 lead.
There were a total of 85 charity tosses
attempted in the game, with Eastern netting 28-of-43 attempts for 65 percent. The
Maroon and Gold, conversely, made 21-of-42
tries for 50 percent.
Christian Speelman led the hosts with
24 points, followed by Richmond with 13
points. Daschle Facemyer and Dylan Swatzel
were next with eight markers apiece, while
Ethan Steger, Jett Facemyer and Andrew
Stobart all chipped in five points apiece.
Ross Keller rounded out the winning tally
with four markers.
Colton Lilly paced Meigs with a game-high
25 points, followed by Luke Musser and
Tyler Fields with 11 markers apiece. Jared
Kennedy was next with 10 points, while Dillon Mahr and Cody Bartrum respectively
added seven and five markers.
Jaxon Meadows and Tylar Blevins rounded
out the scoring with a point apiece. Meigs
has now dropped three of its last four decisions overall.

The RedStorm, who won for
the ninth straight time, improved

KIAC North Division to one full
game over Point Park University.
Midway, which entered the
game in a tie for the top spot
in the KIAC South Division,
dropped to 10-11 overall and 6-3
inside the conference. The loss
also kept the Eagles winless in
nine all-time meetings with Rio.
Payne, a sophomore forward
from Deep Water, W.Va., had
more than half of her 22 first
half points in the game-changing
run as the RedStorm extended a
four-point advantage to a 60-44
cushion over the final 3:12 of the
opening half.

Boston postpones Super Bowl parade after
heavy snow
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — Boston is postponing its victory parade for the Super Bowl-winning
New England Patriots because of heavy snowfall.
Mayor Marty Walsh said late Monday that the
city will delay the celebration until Wednesday
morning. The city had announced earlier that the
downtown parade would take place Tuesday.
Walsh said in a statement that the city and team
have agreed to hold off because of Monday’s snowstorm. It dumped more than a foot of fresh snow on
the Boston area made commutes treacherous.
Boston has already canceled school Tuesday. It
was the fifth snow day in the past week as the city
has seen a record 34 inches of snow in seven days.
The Patriots are on their way back to Massachusetts on Monday following their 28-24 victory over
the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday in Arizona.
