A grand jury indicted Pike County Sheriff Charles Reader on 16 counts, including misdemeanor conflict-ofinterest charges alleging Reader misused his public office to obtain vehicles and sought or accepted thousands of dollars in loans from employees of his office and a county vendor. Reader isn’t commenting, according to a statement from his office. The Pike County court clerk had no attorney on record for the sheriff, who, at least for now, retains his job and remains free ahead of his arraignment scheduled for Tuesday. A message was left for attorney James Boulger, who has spoken for Reader in the matter and previously told The Colum- bus Dispatch that borrowing money from friends isn’t a crime. The indictment, which offers little context about the allegations, also contains counts of theft, tampering with records and securing writings by deception. A lawyer from Ohio Auditor Keith Faber’s office is the special prosecutor for the case, but neither he nor the office would elaborate on details of the allegations beyond what was in the indictment. The charges followed an investigation that began with a complaint in November. “It is our job to hold public officials accountable and root out fraud, waste, and abuse in our communities,” Faber said in a written statement. “We do not take these charges lightly and recognize that no one is above the law.” Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost said the sheriff’s indictment won’t impact the pending murder cases against the four suspects who have been charged in the gruesome 2016 shootings of eight people from the Rhoden family, the case that put Reader in the national spotlight.

Chances of approving Ohio budget more uncertain COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The chances of Ohio lawmakers approving the state’s spending plan have grown more uncertain as a weekend voting session has been canceled. The House and Sen- ate must present Gov. Mike DeWine with the two-year budget that pays for schools, health care for the poor, prisons and dozens of other priorities in time for him to sign it by a midnight Sunday deadline. Republican House Speaker Larry Householder on Friday canceled a planned Saturday session. The Senate still plans to meet Saturday. A joint House-Senate committee is working through differences in the $69 billion spend- ing bill, and a final proposal must be approved in up-or-down votes by both chambers. A likely sticking point is between the Senate’s proposed 8% personal income tax cut and the House’s proposed cut of 6.6%.

The government agency, which could be the state or a local government, then repays investors if the project works. Sprague hopes pay-forsuccess experiments will create models that public agencies can replicate to deliver services more efficiently. “This creates the best of both worlds, where we leverage the private sector’s ability to innovate and the public sector’s ability to fund and operate programs and scale them statewide,” Sprague said. About two dozen payfor-success programs are underway across the U.S. None has reached a point yet where evaluators have concluded whether or not investors should be paid back all or part of their investment. In New York City, a nearly $10 million project was launched in 2012 to keep youthful offenders from returning to the city’s Rikers Island jail. The program ended in 2015, a year before its scheduled completion date, when it became apparent it could not achieve its stated goal of reducing recidivism by 10%. Other pay-for-success programs include an effort in Washington, D.C., to reduce pollution flowing into the Chesapeake Bay, and one in South Carolina to address maternal and child health for first-time mothers. The first county-sponsored pay-for-success program is in Cuyahoga County, which includes Cleveland. �NEWS Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, June 30, 2019 3A MEIGS HEALTH MATTERS Vector-borne diseases on the rise Vectors are organisms that transmit pathogens and parasites from one infected person (or animal) to another, causing serious diseases in humans.

Lieb and Dan Sewell Associated Press JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — The battle for political advantage in state capitols is poised to become more intense after the U.S. Supreme Court declared that federal judges have no role in settling disputes over partisan gerrymandering. The ruling this week could empower Republicans and Democrats who hold full control of state legislatures and governor’s offices to become even more aggressive in drawing districts to their benefit after the 2020 census. It could shift legal challenges against partisan gerrymandering to state courts and prompt more efforts to reform redistricting procedures through amendments to state constitutions. Ultimately, it also could mean that voters upset with the party in power must seek change the old-fashioned way — by electing different lawmakers, no matter how difficult that might seem in heavily gerrymandered districts. “It just means the next elections are even more important,” said Mindy Nagel, a Cincinnati Democrat whose home is split between two Republican-held congressional districts. “We need to focus on state politics big time.” Ohio is one of several states immediately affected by the Supreme Court’s ruling, which overturned lower court decisions that North Carolina Republicans and Maryland Democrats had unconstitutionally gerrymandered congressional districts to their political advan- tage. Writing for the court’s 5-4 majority, Chief Justice John Roberts said that although the cases provided “blatant examples of partisanship driving districting decisions,” federal courts have no authority to determine whether partisan gerrymandering is unconstitutional. The ruling is likely to lead to the dismissal of similar federal lawsuits in Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin. Courts in Michigan and Ohio had ordered new districts to be drawn for the 2020 elections after ruling that Republican officials engaged in illegal partisan gerrymandering. A retrial on a partisan gerrymandering claim in Wisconsin had been scheduled to begin in July. Instead, the 2020 elections will proceed under the same districts used for the past decade. An Associated Press statistical analysis of the 2016 and 2018 elections found that congressional districts in North Carolina and Ohio produced a consistent advantage for Republicans. The AP’s analysis also found a persistent Republican advantage in state House or Assembly districts in Michigan and Wisconsin. “The fact that these districts aren’t fairly drawn makes it a tough slog for us,” Michigan Democratic Party Chairwoman Lavora Barnes said. “But we feel good that there are places in Michigan, despite the gerrymandered districts, where we can make inroads and where we can win seats that have been drawn specifically for Republicans to win.” GALLIA, MEIGS CALENDAR Sunday, June 30 from the side door at 2 1/2 Alley.

Farm Journal, the Kentucky Department of Agriculture, and University of Kentucky recently convened Hemp College in Lexington., where 500 curious and interested people from Florida to Colorado, and Texas to New York were attracted to the event. The focus on industrial hemp in Kentucky is to find an alternative farm crop Donald to replace tobacco. Chafin Tobacco sales have declined from $1 Contributing billion to $300 million. Small farmers columnist have lost a major portion of their income source. Hemp is seen as a suitable, intensive, high value, small acreage, high labor alternative crop. In 2014 Kentuckians cultivated 13 acres of licensed hemp production; in 2019 approved legal cultivation will reach 70,000 acres. Sales should approach $100 million. The opening theme of the conference was “Think Rope, Not Dope”. Their analogy stated that “corn ain’t corn, corn ain’t corn, corn ain’t corn”. Although botanically corn is zea maize, the corn family includes popcorn, sweet corn, and pig and cow corn. Cannabis sativa is more than marijuana. The family includes industrial hemp, medical cannabis, and recreational marijuana. Industrial hemp has three major uses — grain, fiber, and CBD oil products, along with other minor uses. Shelled hemp grains are currently on the shelves at Walmart and Kroger along with quinoa and flaxseed as snack food. CDB oils, salves, and capsules are available at health food stores. Hemp rope and cloth is available from fiber manufacturers and Lowe’s. Most of the products are imported from Canada and Europe. It has been illegal to grow and possess cannabis in the U.S. The Controlled Substance Act of 1970 made the possession and use of cannabis illegal. Industrial hemp was therefore illegal also. However, the agricultural Farm Bill of 2018 included a provision that removed industrial hemp from the list of banned substances. With this change, hemp production was seen as a legally viable alternative agricultural crop. The Farm Bill continued to maintain hemp production unlawful if produced without a USDA or State Department of Agriculture license. To date most states have approved strict licensing, regulation, and control procedures to guide farmer producers. There is a firm distinction between industrial hemp and marijuana. Hemp can contain a maximum level of three-tenths of one percent (.003, or .3%) of THC, tetrahrocannabinol, the intoxicating compound of cannabis. By comparison, medical cannabis products typically contain 5-7% THC and recreational marijuana 20-35% THC. At the low THC level, industrial hemp products can supply the flavonoids and naturally beneficial characteristics of the plant without creating the intoxication. Kentucky has become a leading state for implementing licensing and inspection of industrial hemp as an agricultural crop. Over the past five years, the Department of Agriculture developed policies and procedures for growers, processors, and handlers. The Ohio Legislature is in the process of considering legislation to authorize a program. The University of Kentucky College of Agriculture has initiated research on growing, tending, harvesting, processing and marketing of hemp. Production can be similar to other commodity crops. Seed can be planted with conventional drills, fiber can be harvested with forage harvesters, and grains harvested with combines. There are many production challenges however. Seeds cost 80 cents to $1 per seed and must have low THC genetics. The seeding rate is 1,600 plants per acre. There are no weed, pesticide, nor fungicide products labeled for use on hemp. Thus the crop requires cultivation and hand weeding, or plastic planting. Fertility requirements of N, P, K, and lime are similar to corn. Markets for products are evolving but not fully established or available. Growers should have marketing agreements with reputable, established processors before planting seed. With all the challenges, initial production will probably be limited to small acreage with considerable hand labor available, as is typical of tobacco production. There was obviously lots of interest and excitement about growing hemp and processing hemp products. However, the unknowns of the production process and the true (if any) value of the CBD extracts for consumers makes it a risky business to initiate. Agricultural fads touting emus and Jerusalem artichokes as farm enterprises in recent years have proven to be duds. Will industrial hemp be a flash in the pan or highly successful? Time will tell.

THEIR VIEW President signs bill for Blue Water Navy vets Good news Wednesday morning, President Trump has signed the HR299 bill into law. Sadly, main stream media has not said a word this morning. A Bill that effectively restores benefits for 90,000 Vietnam Veterans off the coast of the Republic of Vietnam, performing duties that consisted of Naval gunfire support of troops in country, coastal patrol to capture North Vietnamese vessels, and the replenishment of not only ships at sea, but those shore facilities in dire need of food items, ammunition, fuel and various logistic support. In addition to veterans claims, we have an untold number of widows that are now eligible for DIC or Dependency Indemnity Compensation of $1,319.04 per month, tax free. So where do Blue Water Navy veterans stand with the passage Procopio v Wilkie and now the HR 299 bill? Excellent Question. As we know Procopio V.

WASHINGTON — Adding a high-stakes immigration case to its election-year agenda, the Supreme Court said Friday it will decide whether President Donald Trump can terminate an Obama-era program shielding young migrants from deportation. The justices’ order sets up legal arguments for late fall or early winter, with a decision likely by June 2020 as Trump campaigns for re-election. The president ordered an end to the program known as DACA in 2017, sparking protests and a congressional effort to salvage it. That effort failed, but federal courts in California, New York, Virginia and Washington, D.C., have blocked him from ending it immediately. A federal judge in Texas has declared the program is illegal, but refused to order it halted. The program — Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals — protects about 700,000 people, known as dreamers, who were Xhek]^j�je�j^[�K$I$� illegally as children or came with families that overstayed visas. The DACA protections seem certain to remain in effect at least until the high court issues its decision. The administration had asked the court to take up and decide the appeals by the end of this month. The justices declined to do so and held on to the appeals for nearly five months with no action and no explanation. The court did nothing Friday to clear up the reasons for the long delay, although immigration experts have speculated that the court could have been waiting for other appellate rulings, legislation in Congress that would have put the program on a surer footing or additional administration action. Since entering the White House, Trump has intermittently expressed a willingness to create a pathway to citizenship for the hundreds of thousands of immigrants who’ve been protected by DACA. But he’s coupled it with demands to tighten legal immigration and to build his long wall along the Mexican border — conditions that Democrats have largely rejected. With the 2020 presidential and congressional election seasons underway or rapidly approaching, it seems unlikely that either party would be willing to compromise on immigration , a touchstone for both parties’ base voters. �NEWS 8A Sunday, June 30, 2019 Sunday Times-Sentinel Foundation makes donations Courtesy photos Gallia County Charitable Foundation donation to Gallia County EmancipationCelebration for the 2019 Gallia County Charitable Foundation making donation to the VFW Honor Guard 4464.

Prosecutors and Fields’ nesses to the attack delivered emotional testimony lawyers agreed that federal sentencing guidelines about the physical and called for a life sentence. psychological wounds But in a sentencing memo they had received as a result of the events that filed in court last week, day. his lawyers asked U.S. AP Legal Affairs Writer “You had a choice to leave Charlottesville, but you did not,” said Rosia Parker, a longtime civil rights activist in Charlottesville Fields who said she was standing feet away from Heyer when she was struck by Fields’ car. “You could have done anything else but what you did,” Parker said, her voice choking as she stared directly at Fields. “So, yeah, you deserve everything that you get.” Fields appeared stoic and didn’t look at Parker or any of the victims as they spoke. Heyer’s mother, Susan Bro, said she wanted Fields to spend his life in prison but also hoped he would get the medication he needed and that one day he would change his views and no longer support white supremacy. “I hope he can heal someday and help others heal,” Bro said. Fields drove from his home in Maumee, Ohio, to attend the “Unite the Right” rally on Aug. 12, 2017, which drew hundreds of white nationalists to Charlottesville to protest the planned removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. Hundreds of counterprotesters showed up as well. President Donald Trump sparked controversy when he blamed the violence at the rally on “both sides,” a statement that critics saw as a refus- al to condemn racism. Prosecutors said Fields had a long history of racist and anti-Semitic behavior and had shown no remorse for his crimes. They said he is an avowed white supremacist, admired Adolf Hitler and even kept a picture of the Nazi leader on his bedside table. During the sentencing hearing Friday, FBI Special Agent Wade Douthit said Fields “was like a kid at Disney World” during a high school trip to the Dachau concentration camp in Germany. Douthit read grand jury testimony from a high school classmate of Fields who said Fields appeared happy and made the remark, “This is where the magic happened.” The statement pro- voked audible gasps from the crowd that had packed into the Charlottesville courtroom. The classmate said when Fields viewed the camp’s gas chamber he said, “It’s almost like you can still hear them screaming.” Douthit said the classmate was so disgusted by Fields’ remarks he stopped associating with him. During Fields’ state trial and in their sentencing memo, his attorneys focused on his history of mental illness and traumatic childhood. A psychologist testified that Fields had inexplicable volatile outbursts as a young child, was diagnosed with bipolar disorder at age 6 and was later diagnosed with schizoid personality disorder. 195 Upper River Road, Gallipolis 1-800-272-5179 www.johnsang.com Fishing w i t h Dad Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö� PHOTO CONTEST Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö�Š�Ö� Send in your photo and turn it into CASH...

Somerset (FL) ultimately See MOTHMEN | 2B Capehart junior golfers compete at Riverside Staff Report MASON, W.Va. — A beautiful day that included plentiful sunshine, warm temperatures and a golf course in excellent condition. It was about all that the young men and women could ask for Wednesday morning as they participated in the third round of this year’s tournament schedule at Riverside Golf Course. The results of today’s play will play a large role in determining the individual winners in the final outcome of each age group results. There will not be a tournament next week. The final tournament on July 9 is the annual “Fun Day” event, where each player is given a handicap based on their previous scores. Each player will be given a prize based on their order of finish in that final tournament. By the way, any parent or supporter of individual player(s) is asked to provide a baked item or any food item for that matter that would help feed the players at the conclusion of play on that final day of competition. In the boys division of the 18-19 year old age group, Jensen Anderson played in his third tournament this season and finished first today with his score of 40. Jensen ended up with a tie for second place in the initial tournament earning seven points that week. The second tournament found Jensen finishing second alone giving him an additional eight points. Today’s victory provided Anderson another 10 points for a grand total of 25 points. Because Levi Chapman did not play today, his point total remained at 20 for the season … and he will finish in second place. Jensen was the only player, boy or girl, in this age group today. Haley Pierson is the winner of the ladies division in th 18-19 age group. Whitney Byrd is the clear winner in the boys section of the 15-17 year old group after winning all three of his tournaments in convincing fashion. It should be noted that Whitney started his round today by making a quadruple bogey eight. He recovered during his final eight holes to shoot a fine 38 for the day. In second place today was Matthew Morris with a score of 46. T.J. Vogt finished third today with a score of 49. Ethan Short and Jacob Spencer also played in this group today. Although missing today, Caitlin Cotterill is the ladies winner in this age group for the season with a total of 20 points. The boys division in the 13-14 year old age group was won by Joe Milhoan. Joe’s score today of 48 won him 10 points, giving him a total of 28 and the winners plaque for the season. Brycen Bumgarner was second today with a score of 53.

The Big Blacks won the program’s fourth state title since three-peating from 2010 through 2012. Point’s state champions By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — The Ohio Valley Publishing area went without a state title of some sort during the 2017-18 school year, a first for the tri-county region in 14 years. Point Pleasant High School went out of its way to make sure that the same problem didn’t occur again over the course of the last 10 months. Though the number can technically be disputed, PPHS officially scored a half-dozen state championships over the course of the 2018-19 athletic school year — with all of those coming over a three-month span between the end of February and the middle of May. The reason for the possible number discrepancy centers around a Big Blacks’ wrestling program that started the year with a 28-strong roster and 19 varsity returnees. As a team, Point Pleasant captured the program’s fourth Class AA state title in rather convincing fashion after having 10 of its 14 state qualifiers earn podium finishes at the three-day event. PPHS also landed a trio of individual state champions at the state tournament, but all 14 Big Black competitors — and other members of the Point Pleasant junior Samantha Saunders attempts to leap over the bar during the 2019 WVSSAC Class AA high jump final held Saturday, May 18, at Laidley Field in Charleston, W.Va. program — were able to walk away calling themselves a state champion. The Big Blacks — who technically clinched the 2019 team crown by the end of the third session Friday evening — dominated the three-day event with 203 points, finishing 83 points ahead of runner-up Independence (120) and the rest of the Class AA-A field. The Red and Black — who entered the state tournament with only one senior out of their 14 divisional qualifiers — amassed a 38-18 overall record in head-to-head bouts, with 20 of those wins coming by pinfall. Point Pleasant led wire-to-wire through all five sessions and secured its first state title since a three-peat performance in Class AA-A from 2010 through 2012, and the Big Blacks also produced their first individual state champions since the 2016 campaign. Sophomore Isaac Short (106), freshman Derek Raike (120) and freshman Justin Bartee (126) were all magnificent in their first-ever state tournaments as each underclassman went 4-0 while claiming state titles in their respective divisions. The triumphant trio increased Point Pleas- ant’s state champion total to 24 while also becoming the 16th, 17th and 18th individuals to accomplish the feat in program history. Raike and Bartee are also the third and fourth freshmen in school history to win state championships, joining current senior teammate George Smith (2016) and Rusty Maness (2008) in that very exclusive club. It was the seventh time in school history that Point Pleasant had multiple champions at the same state tournament, as well as a record-tying fifth occasion of having three state champions at one meet. The Red and Black also secured two runnerup finishes to go along with a third place and a fourth place effort. PPHS also had a trio of grapplers end up fifth in their respective divisions. The Big Blacks received wins from a dozen different individuals over the weekend, and nine separate Point grapplers also produced at least one pinfall win. Point Pleasant also lost eight of their 18 contests by two points or less, including six matches by a single point. The 203 team points, 10 state placers and 83-point margin of victory are short of only the 2012 squad in program history. The 2012 team set the school marks with See STATE | 2B �SPORTS 2B Sunday, June 30, 2019 Mothmen From page 1B came away with the Gold Pool title after knocking off Social Circle in the championship dual. The Mothmen had a dozen individuals place in the top-four of their respective weight classes, with three grapplers going unbeaten en route to gold medal honors. Mackandle Freeman and Parker Henderson both went 5-0 at 106 pounds, while reigning Class AA 106pound champion Isaac Short went unbeaten in 10 matches at 113 pounds. Reigning 120-pound Class AA champion Derek Raike joined Logan Southall in silver medal honors as both grapplers went 9-1 overall at 126 pounds and 170-182 pounds, respectively. Christopher Smith (120), George Smith (132) and reigning 126-pound Class AA champion Justin Bartee (138) each came away with bronze medal performance with identical 8-2 marks. Mitchell Freeman (145), Zac Samson (160), Wyatt Stanley (220) and Jacob Muncy (285) all came away with 7-3 records and copper medal honors. Wyatt Wilson (152), Ethan Marcum (170182), Nick Ball (195) and Juan Marquez (195) also participated on behalf of the Mothmen Wrestling Club. “I am very proud of how hard our guys competed,” MWC coach John Bonecutter said. “We beat some really good team from all around the country, and the kids wrestled really well.

Rapinoe turned turmoil into triumph Friday night, scoring twice in the much-anticipated clash with host France to send the defending champion United States into the semifinals of the Women’s World Cup with a 2-1 victory. Two days earlier, Rapinoe had been called out on social media by President Donald Trump after video surfaced of her saying she wouldn’t visit the White House if the United States won the tournament, and the critics pounced. Rapinoe shrugged them off by facing the crowd with her arms raised in celebration after both her goals. “I don’t really get energized by haters or all that, I feel there are so many more people that love me,” she said with a laugh. “I’m more energized by that.” Now the top-ranked Americans are headed to Lyon to face No. 3 England in a semifinal match Tuesday. France had been vying to become the first nation to simultaneously hold the men’s and women’s World Cup trophies but fell well short as their aggressive play, home-field advantage and flag-waving crowd that belted out La Marseillaise failed to faze the everconfident U.S. team. Rapinoe, her hair highlighted with a pastel pink, scored on a free kick in the fifth minute that bounced between French players and past goalkeeper Sarah Bouhaddi. She did it again in the 65th minute after blasting a cross from Tobin Heath that Bouhaddi dove for but couldn’t stop. It was her fifth goal of the tournament. toward France, with two wins and a draw. “The media and fans and everyone bought into this being a final being played as a quarterfinal match. And it was. I feel like it was a great match,” U.S. star Alex Morgan said. “I think we have the edge on them in World Cups and major tournaments, but lately they’ve had the edge on us with friendlies. So I think it was a great match for both of us.” Because of the loss Friday, France does not qualify for the 2020 Olympics.

MASON, W.Va. — Carl Stone, of Spencer, captured the first half title of the 2019 Riverside Senior men’s golf league held Tuesday at Riverside Golf Club in Mason County. Stone amassed a winning first half tally of 167.5 points, which ended up being two full points ahead of runner-up Kenny Pridemore (165.5). Charlie Hargraves was also five points back of the leader en route to placing third with 162.5 points. A total of 62 players were present for the first half finale, making up 14 four-man teams and a pair of trios. The low score of the day was a 13-under par 57, fired by the quartet of Pridemore, Rex Young, Bobby Watson and Hook Hoffman. One shot back was the second place team of Steve Safford, Ed Coon, Cliff Rice and J.J. Hemsley. The closest to the pin winners were Larry Scarberry on the ninth hole, as well as Fred Pyles on No. 14. The top-10 standings from the first half of the 2019 Riverside Senior men’s golf league are as follows: Carl Stone (167.5), Kenny Pridemore (165.5), Charlie Hargraves (162.5), Albert Durst (142.5), Bobby Watson (133.5), Rex Young (126.0), Jimmy Gress (123.5), Buford Brown (114.5), Carl Cline (105.0), and Cliff Rice (113.5). The second half of the 2019 Riverside Senior men’s golf league begins Tuesday, July 2. Fans elect historically young NL lineup for ASG NEW YORK (AP) — Surrounded by sweet-swinging sluggers Christian Yelich, Cody Bellinger and Ronald Acuña Jr., All-Star stalwart Nolan Arenado is set for a new role with the National League — elder statesman. “It shows how good these young guys are,” Arenado said. The five-time All-Star will be joined by a bumper crop of talent in one of the youngest All-Star Game lineups ever — a millennial-heavy NL group that could make history at the midsummer showcase in Cleveland on July 9. Major League Baseball revealed the results from fan balloting for its All-Star starters Thursday, and the average age of the eight NL starters is 25.8 years old. Depending on who is chosen as the club’s designated hitter, the starting position players could be the youngest ever, surpassing the 1967 NL and 2017 AL clubs, which averaged 26.0 years old. “I’ve never seen this much young talent in the game,” said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, who will lead the NL. “There’s a lot of fun players to watch — talented and the personalities from some of these young players.” Angels star Mike Trout was the leading vote get- ter in the final round. He’ll be joined on the AL squad by three Astros — Alex Bregman, George Springer and Michael Brantley — and two Yankees — Gary Sánchez and DJ LeMahieu. The lineups are full of unlikely names. LeMahieu didn’t crack New York’s opening day lineup. Rangers designated hitter Hunter Pence could only find a minor league contract as a free agent last offseason. Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte and Twins shortstop Jorge Polanco hardly garnered All-Star attention in previous years. Now they’re AllStar starters. “It was quite a wild journey from this year to last year,” Pence said. “And to even be speaking about this now, is a miracle. It’s a blessing, and I’m very grateful.” The NL’s oldest elected starters are 29-year-old Freddie Freeman from Atlanta and 28-year-old Arenado of Colorado. “Some of these young players are unbelievable players,” Arenado said. “We’re fortunate to be in this time, when you get to see how good they are.” Indians first baseman Carlos Santana was elected to start in his home park in the 33-yearold’s first All-Star selection. He’ll be joined in the lineup by Brantley, a former teammate who left the Indians in free agency last offseason for a $32 million, two-year deal with Houston. Brantley edged Yankees slugger Aaron Judge by 0.9% for the final outfield spot. The Cubs’ Willson Contreras and Javier Baez will each start for the NL for the second straight year. Baez was elected at shortstop a year after starting at second. Only three other All-Stars have started in consecutive years at different positions. Trout is set to be the sixth AL player to start six times before turning 28. The others are Joe DiMag- gio, Mickey Mantle, Ivan Rodriguez, Rod Carew and Ken Griffey Jr. It’s Trout’s eighth straight selection overall. “I just enjoy going to them,” he said. “Every year it seems like I am slowing it down and embracing the experience. The first couple I was running around and it went so fast.” Yelich was second in voting behind Trout. He homered in last year’s AllStar Game, then staged a second-half tear that ended in him winning NL MVP. He’s been just as good in 2019, leading the majors with 29 homers while hitting .332 with a 1.149 OPS. �4B Sunday, June 30, 2019 Sunday Times-Sentinel (740) 446-2342 or fax to (740) 446-3008 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN (740) 992-2155 or fax to (740) 992-2157 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN ROGERS BASEMENT WATERPROOFING LEGALS %DVHPHQW :DOOV %UDFHG +XQGUHGV 2I /RFDO 5HIHUHQFHV /LFHQVHG� %RQGHG ,QVXUHG FREE ESTIMATES 24 Hours (740) 446-0870 www.rogersbasementwaterproofing.com BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY MOTOR ROUTE Would you like to deliver newspapers as an independent contractor under an agreement with the Point Pleasant Register?

The league told teams Friday that, pending expected approval by the board of governors on July 9, coaches may challenge a personal foul charged to their team, a called out-of-bounds violation, a goaltending violation or a basketinterference violation. No other call may be challenged. “We anticipate this rule will be in effect in the NBA next season as a one-year pilot program,” NBA Basketball Operations President Byron Spruell told teams in the memo, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press. ESPN first reported the memo’s contents. The NBA already has a call-challenge program in place in the G League and tinkered with it during summer league last year. It will be used during all three summer “As with other replay reviews, in order to overturn the event as called on the floor, there must be clear and conclusive visual evidence that the call was incorrect.” — Byron Spruell NBA Basketball Operations President memo leagues this season — the four-team league in Sacramento and Salt Lake City that open Monday, and the one in Las Vegas that opens July 5. Unlike the NFL version of a challenge, there’s no flag to be used and teams will not retain them even if successful. A team will have to call timeout and the coach “must immediately signal for a challenge by twirling his/her index finger toward the referees,” the memo said. A challenge must come immediately after the play and challenges of out-of-bounds calls, goaltending or basket interference will not be permitted in the last two minutes of the fourth quarter or the last two minutes of overtime. “As with other replay reviews, in order to overturn the event as called on the floor, there must be clear and conclusive visual evidence that the call was incorrect,” the memo said. If the challenge is unsuccessful, the team will lose its timeout. If the challenge is upheld, no timeout will be charged. Also likely coming to the league: Instant replay can be triggered by officials in the review center in Secaucus, New Jersey, without the involvement of the oncourt crew. The league said it wants to give the replay center the authority to review whether a shot was a 2-pointer or 3-pointer without on-court crews asking for it, as well as the ability to review potential shot-clock violations. A courtside administra- tor would be added to the crew at the scorer’s table to communicate with the replay center and then be the liaison to announce any immediate scoring changes. For summer league only, there will be a “transition take foul” — one free throw and retention of the ball when a defender commits a take foul against any offensive player during a transition scoring opportunity but does not meet the criteria of a clear-path foul. And in Las Vegas, a new high-tech element will make its debut. What the NBA calls a “connected basketball” will sometimes be in use for those games. The NBA said it has been working with Spalding and other vendors to develop a basketball with a tracking chip inside, and prototypes will be tried out during the Vegas league. Some companies have been in the smart-ball game for a few years, offering users the chance to use apps to track their accuracy and other data. Baseball union: Player approval needed to play in Montreal LONDON (AP) — The players’ union says the Tampa Bay Rays would need its permission to play games in Montreal. Commissioner Rob Manfred said last week the low-drawing Rays may explore a split season in Montreal. No timetable for the possible plan was announced “There is a lot of work that is going to need to be done before that consideration becomes closer to a reality,” union head Tony Clark said Friday as the New York Yankees took batting practice at Olympic Stadium, a day before playing Boston in baseball’s first major league game in Europe. “We look forward to being a part of that conversation, as well. A lot of challenges there.” Clark said requiring a player to maintain two homes during the season would be a “significant burden.” The Montreal Expos were in the National League from 1969-2004 before moving to Washington and becoming the Nationals. In their last two seasons before moving, the Expos played 22 games a year in Puerto Rico. Clark said the union considers a team playing home games in two locations to be a mandatory topic of bargaining under the National Labor Relations Act, making it subject to union agreement. “Interesting spot that it’s in,” Clark said. “Interesting idea.” Major League Baseball questions such an interpretation of the NLRA. “I believe that under the NLRA there is no obligation to bargain over the decision itself, which is a management prerogative, but an obligation to bargain over the effects of the decision on terms and conditions of employment,” deputy commissioner Dan Halem said in an email. “It’s akin to plant relocation.” Logano says Chicagoland is new experience with rules package JOLIET, Ill. (AP) — Joey Logano is making his 11th NASCAR Cup Series start at Chicagoland Speedway, and it’s just like his first race all over again. Like so many other drivers, Logano is looking forward to seeing how the 2019 rules package affects Sunday’s stop at the well-worn, 1.5-mile oval. “I mean it’ll change everything, just like it has everywhere else we’ve gone,” Logano said Friday as he relaxed in his trailer after spending some time on the track in preparation for the Xfinity Series race. “Whether it’s been a short track or a mile-and-a-half or a super speedway in this case, this rules (package), it’s changed the game.” This year’s competition package reduced horsepower and increased downforce in an attempt to offer more passing opportunities. The engine has a tapered spacer, and this weekend’s cars will have aerodynamic ducts as well. A modified version debuted at Atlanta’s challenging 1.5mile speedway in February, and Brad Keselowski beat out Martin Truex Jr. for the win. The overhauled competition rules were fully implemented for the first time in Las Vegas in March, and Logano held off Penske teammate Keselowski for his 22nd victory. Logano said the competition package has turned each track into a new experience. “We’re all starting with a pretty new notebook,” he said. “There’s some things you can go back and look at, but for the most part, anytime I look back on what I wrote down last Nam Y. Huh | AP Joey Logano drives on the track during a NASCAR Xfinity Series auto race practice Friday at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Ill. year, it’s not relevant anymore. It’s apples and oranges at this point.” But it has been a full four months since Atlanta, and Cup drivers have much more to go on than they did in the beginning. Logano pointed to Auto Club Speedway in California when asked for a place that could shed some light on how the package might work at Chicagoland. “I know it’s a half-mile longer, but I think that track probably is the closest to this track,” he said. Logano finished second at Fontana in March, losing to Kyle Busch. Keselowski was third, followed by Kevin Harvick and Ryan Blaney. The new rules package was put into place after Logano won the Cup Series title at Homestead in November. Busch, Harvick and Truex combined to win 20 of 36 races last season, prompting NASCAR to go in a different direction in an effort to make the racing more enjoyable for fans. While there are some signs that the changes are having the desired effect, the names on top of the standings are the usual suspects. Logano has two wins and leads Busch by one point heading into the Camping World 400. Busch and Truex have four wins apiece, and Keselowski has won three times. The 29-year-old Logano had a more substantial advantage in the series standings before he had battery problems last weekend and finished 23rd on the road course at Sonoma Raceway.

Toward the end of the proceedings came the most fascinating firstround matchup of all: 39-year-old Venus Williams, a five-time champion at the All England Club, against 15-year-old American Coco Gauff, the youngest player to qualify at the All England Club in the half-century Open era. ena Williams, Barty and Kerber also includes past Wimbledon champions Garbiñe Muguruza and Maria Sharapova, and strong grass-court players Julia Goerges, Belinda Bencic, Donna Vekic, Kaia Kanepi and Alison Riske. Kerber could meet Sharapova in the third round. At least the younger Williams, who as usual skipped the grass-court tuneup events, gets a chance to work herself into form. She opens against a qualifier, 162nd-ranked Giulia Gatto-Monticone of Italy, then could face another qualifier in the second round. Nadal starts off against qualifier Yuichi Sugita of Japan, and Federer’s first opponent is Lloyd Harris, a 22-year-old South African making his Stefanos Tsitsipas, and No. 4 Kevin Anderson, last year’s runner-up, against No. 6 Alexander Zverev on one side of the field, and Federer vs. No. 8 Kei Nishikori, and Nadal vs. No. 5 Dominic Thiem on the other. Nadal-Thiem would be a rematch of the 2018 and 2019 French Open finals, both won by Nadal. The women’s quarterfinals could include Barty against No. 11 seed Serena Williams or No. 5 Kerber; No. 3 Karolina Pliskova against No. 8 Elena Svitolina; No. 2 Naomi Osaka against No. 7 Simona Halep; No. 4 Kiki Bertens against No. 6 Petra Kvitova, the two-time champion who must decide whether to play after being sidelined with an injured left forearm. The quarter with Ser- week, said in an interview posted on Wimbledon’s Twitter feed. “And In between, there were I met them both, and plenty of other things to they’re both super-kind keep an eye out for once people, and I’m just super-happy and thankful the grass-court Grand Slam tournament begins that they chose to play tennis.” Monday, including the With defending champlacement of Venus’ pion Djokovic in the top younger sister, Serena, half of the men’s bracket, in what shapes up as by he’ll now only need to far the toughest quarter beat at most one of the of the women’s field.

Djokovic will get things going at Centre Court on Monday against Philipp Kohlschreiber, a former top-20 player who was a 2012 quarterfinalist at Wimbledon and beat Djokovic on a hard court at Indian Wells, California, this year. Intriguing first-round pairings men’s include: Thiem against 2017 semifinalist Sam Querrey; 12th-seeded Fabio Fognini against 21-yearold American Frances Tiafoe; No. 19 seed Felix Auger-Aliassime against Vasek Pospisil in an allCanadian matchup; and Nick Kyrgios against Jordan Thompson in an allAustralian matchup, with the winner likely facing Nadal, who was upset by Kyrgios in the fourth round at Wimbledon in 2014. Dominican police arrest ‘mastermind’ in Ortiz shooting SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic (AP) — Authorities in the Dominican Republic announced Friday that they have arrested the man behind the shooting of baseball great David Ortiz in an apparent case of mistaken identity.

Gómez later resurfaced in the U.S. as one of dozens of suspects sought by federal authorities following a March 2019 drug trafficking sting in Houston. In the video, Gómez said he did not turn himself into U.S. authorities because he was not home at the time and because he could not afford a lawyer or post bond. Police had said Fernández received several threatening messages from Gómez prior to the shooting but did not provide a time frame. Gómez then spent most of the video accusing Fernández of having ties to drug traffickers, saying that many people would back up his claims. Fernández did not return a message for comment. Authorities said at a recent press conference that Gómez wanted Fernández killed because he believed his cousin turned him into Dominican drug investigators in 2011. They said Gómez then spent time in prison in the Dominican Republic with one of at least 11 suspects arrest- “I would never do something like this,” Gómez said, adding that he did not try to kill his cousin, “and least of all David, ‘Big Papi.’” Gómez, who was wearing a gray T-shirt and a khaki cap, said he made the video because he fears for his life and wanted to reject the accusations as he called on police to investigate the case more deeply. “I want to clarify that I have nothing to do with any attempt on the life against Sixto David Fernández,” he said. “We’re family.” that he was an associate of Mexico’s Gulf Cartel. He is accused of ordering the killing of his cousin, Sixto David Fernández. Authorities say hit men confused Ortiz with Fernández during the June 9 shooting at a bar in the capital of Santo Domingo. The two men are friends and were sharing a table. Carlos Rubio, Gómez’s attorney, did not immediately return a message for comment. However, he posted a seven-minute video on YouTube on Friday in which his client talks about the case. Clendenin 90/61 Charleston 87/60 Shown are noon positions of weather systems and precipitation.
