When First Energy’s foresters came for the five red maples that stood along the Riddle Avenue tree lawn beside Dr. Joe Gadd’s property in Ravenna, he was powerless to save them. So in protest, he put up wooden crosses to symbol- ize every tree that was re- moved from the area around his house at 401 Madison St. City officials promptly took them down. Gadd is lamenting the loss of shade at his home, saying the peace and quiet he once enjoyed also has been removed because of the near-constant sawing of other trees near his home at the corner of Madison and Riddle. “They’re taking them all down because it’s cheaper to do it all at one time than to trim them,” Gadd said. “They don’t want any growth under there at all.” First Energy is spending $1.8 million to rebuild a power line that runs about 1.5 miles between two sub- stations in the city, said Doug Collafella, a spokesperson for First En- ergy Corp. The project, be- ing done through the com- pany’s “Energizing the Fu- ture” initiative, includes new poles and wires and smart technology that can isolate power outages and boost reliability. The poles being replaced have stood there for many decades, he said. The “identical replace- ment” would replace all poles, which stand about 85 feet high, Collafella said. The affected area roughly runs from the Brown Mid- dle School area of West Main Street, east to Madi- son and West Riddle to the substation near Mill Road. All property owners were contacted in an effort to ex- tend existing easements in the area, Collafella said, but the company was not suc- cessful in all cases, includ- ing Gadd’s property. “Without question, we understand that the re- moval of trees is a very sen- sitive issue,” he said. “But trees are the No. 1 cause of power outages. And the trees need to be removed prior to the installation of the poles. It’s a necessary part of the process.” Tree clearing began ear- lier this month. The poles and lines are expected to be installed starting in early April, with the project set to wrap up by the end of June. Service Director Don Kainrad said at the city’s request, First Energy paid the city $12,500 — $500 for each of the 25 trees taken down, for tree re- placement. City Arborist Sue Mottl will select the ap- propriate trees to be planted. He said Mottl re- cently told the city’s Shade Tree Commission that most young trees in area nurseries have been picked over, and planting probably will not take place before fall.

government’s red ink.“Yes this does make tax

reform more difficult,” saidRyan. “But it does not inany way make it impossi-ble.”

“That just means theObamacare taxes stay withObamacare. We’re goingto go fix the rest of the taxcode,” he added.

House Republ icanscouldn’t round up enoughvotes Friday to repeal andreplace a law they despise,raising questions abouttheir ability to tackle othertough issues.

“Doing big things ishard,” Ryan conceded ashe vowed to press on.

Rep. Jodey Arrington, R-Texas, acknowledged thatFriday’s turn of eventsmade him doubtful aboutthe Republicans’ ability totackle major legislation.

“This was my first big

vote and our first big ini-tiative in the line of thingsto come like tax reform,”said the freshman. “I thinkthis would have given ustremendous momentumand I think this hurts thatmomentum.”

Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa.,said, “You always build on

your last accomplishment.”Nevertheless, Treasury

Secretary Steven Mnuchinsaid Friday the administra-tion plans to turn quickly totax reform with the goal ofgetting an overhaul approvedby Congress by August.

“Health care is a verycomplicated issue,”

Mnuchin said. “In a way,tax reform is a lot simpler.”

Don’t tell that to HouseRepublicans who havebeen struggling with the is-sue for years.

The general goal forRepublicans is to lower in-come tax rates for individ-uals and corporations, andmake up the lost revenueby reducing exemptions,deductions and credits.

Overhauling the taxcode is hard because everytax break has a con-stituency. And the biggesttax breaks are among themost popular.

For example, nearly 34million families claimed themortgage interest deduc-tion in 2016, reducing theirtax bills by $65 billion.

Also, more than 43 mil-lion families deducted theirstate and local income,sales and personal prop-erty taxes from their fed-eral taxable income lastyear. The deduction re-duced their federal tax billsby nearly $70 billion.

“We’re very near com-pletion and we’re very ex-cited,” Martin said. “We’vehad our moments, as allbusinesses have, but Iknow it will be worth it inthe end. I can’t wait for usto be open.”

Biscardi said one hisgoals is to offer a comfort-able setting for people ofall ages and backgroundsto enjoy a good meal andconversation.

“We have 136 chairs foroutside,” Biscardi said.“We’re going to have a wa-ter feature with a fountainin the center of it. Our en-tire outdoor area combinedis about roughly 5,000square feet. We’ll have agarden with plants andtrees. We’re also going tohave live music outside aswell.”

The opportunity is al-ways available to accom-modate more diners out-side, he said, with 5,000square feet of customerspace.

“We did a lot of work onthe inside but there was nomajor structural differ-ences,” Biscardi said. “Weadded new carpet and

painted the walls. We haveseating for about 38 peopleat the bar and a little over100 in the rest of the din-ing room. The entire din-ing area is 3,400 squarefeet.

Currently, the kitchen isstill being worked on.Wright Heating & Coolingin Kent is nearing comple-tion of the heating, ventila-tion and air conditioningproject.

“All the walls and thef loor i s new in thekitchen,” Biscardi said.“What used to be a freezerand an office in the backwill now be restrooms.The entrance opens out-side from the patio. This isone of the new changes ourcustomers will notice.Most of the renovationsyou can’t see, like theplumbing and wiring.”

Another goal is to offertop quality food at an af-fordable rate. Customerscan expect dinner meals torange from $13 to $25.Pricing for lunch, the patioand bar is expected torange around $7 to $13.

“We spent a lot of timesearching for high qualityprotein inputs so we cankeep our prices low,” Bis-cardi said. “The best waywe have come up with to

do that was to prepare allof the food ourselves. Allof our butchering will bein -house. We’ve beenputting a lot of leg workinto our purchasing end sowe can pass that savingsalong.”

“We’re going to have awhole separate menu forthe patio,” Biscardi said.“They’ll have access to thefull steakhouse menu aswell but a bar, patio andlunch menu will be on thepatio and bar all day andinside only at lunch time.The dinner menu will beavailable in all parts of therestaurant at all times.”

The concept of a steak-house is still evident on themenu, with steaks such asribeye, New York strip, sir-loin and f i let mignonamong the offerings. Sand-wiches, wraps and flat-bread will make up thelunch, bar and patio menu.

Biscardi also said he isexcited about having anappetizer menu where al-most nothing will be deep-fried.

“We plan on doing a Fri-day fish fry,” he said. “It’sgoing to take up one fryerjust doing fish on a Fridayso I couldn’t do a whole lotof appetizers. Also, I don’twant to buy (food) off a

truck. I don’t want to havethe same thing everybodyelse has. I want my food tobe fresh and different. Idon’t want it to be the ex-act same items otherrestaurants are purchasingoff the truck.”

The Black Iron Grillewill be open from 11 a.m.to 11 p.m. Sunday thoughThursday and 11 a.m. to 1a.m. Friday and Saturday.

‘We are confident we aregoing to have a good din-ner business,” he said.“The Rusty Nail neverserved lunch. We don’tknow how this is going togo. We are confident.We’re going to give it sixmonths or year and if itdoesn’t work, we will justcut it out.”

There is no currentopening date set for theBlack Iron Grille. If allgoes as according toplanned with the rest ofthe renovation process,doors are expected to opensometime in April.

“It’s elevated food in aworking mans’ s teak-house,” Biscardi said. “Iwant it to be in every-body’s price point and Iwant the atmosphere tofeel like anybody can showup. I want everyone to feelcomfortable.”

He maintains that the redmaple trees on the RiddleAvenue side of his cornerlot were not a danger to thepower lines, and will nevergrow high enough to en-danger the wires. And hesaid any trees that the cityplants there will take atleast 20 years to providesufficient shade, long afterthe house is sold and heand a resident of the houseare gone.

To protest the removalof the most recent trees,Gadd set up crosses andf l o w e r s a r o u n d t h estumps to lament whathe descr ibed as “car -nage.”

Kainrad said he directedthe city’s property mainte-nance officer to remove theitems from the tree lawn,saying they were “not ap-proved structures” forthecity’s tree lawn. Fearing

that the items might bedamaged during the stump-removal process, he di-rected the employee tostack the items near Gadd’sgarage.

Gadd is attempting to

sell his house. He said adeal fell through when a po-tential buyer saw that thetrees were gone.

BudgetBudgetFrom Page A1

federal role in education,transportation, job trainingand Medicaid — areas hewould have turned over inlarge part to the states.

Kasich, 64, has not lethis failed White House am-bitions interfere with hispassion on the issue. Heplayed a key role lastmonth in Wyoming becom-ing the 29th state to re-quest an Article V constitu-tional convention aimed atamending a balanced bud-get amendment into theU.S. Constitution.

His sights are now set onIdaho, Arizona, Kentucky,South Carolina and Wis-consin — which he viewsas the best chances ofreaching the 34 states nec-essary to make the conven-tion a reality.

Kasich says he’s in a racewith time. Not only is thegrowing debt a “fiscal timebomb” in Kasich’s view, butsome states are rethinkingtheir support, he said — in-cluding most recently New

Mexico, who recently re-scinded its convention re-quest and took the total num-ber back to 28. Since March1, convention applicationshave been blocked or de-feated in at least nine states.

“You can’t go on rackingup this debt. It’s really, re-ally hard to deal with,” Ka-sich said. “A balanced bud-get amendment forcesCongress to make difficultdecisions and it provides anexcuse to members whenthey face pressure to spend.There’s got to be a willing-ness from both parties —particularly on the Republi-can side, now that they con-trol everything.”

Among opponents fight-ing a balanced budget con-vention are groups as polit-ically different as the JohnBirch Society and theLeague of Women Voters.

Lloyd Leonard, theleague’s senior director ad-vocacy, said a constitu-tional convention risksopening debate on abor-tion, guns, term limits, free-dom of religion and eventhe existence of the federalgovernment itself.

He said he’s surprised

Kasich would admit to abalanced budget amend-ment’s role in providing po-litical cover in Washington.

“I congratulate him onbeing so honest as to saythis is a way to protectpoliticians,” Leonard said.His group believes a bal-anced budget amendmentwould have prevented thefederal government fromactions like the Recession-era stimulus package andauto industry rescue thathelped states like Ohiothrough difficult economictimes.

The John Birch Societycalls a constitutional con-vention “a potentially disas-trous event.”

“We don’t think that it’spossible to be sure it couldbe limited to one issue,” saidLarry Greenley, the society’sdirector of missions. “Wethink it’s just a bad time tounleash something like that.”

Kasich joins those who re-ject the argument. He says aconvention can be limited tothe balanced budget issue,one which has now gainedsupport in both Republicanstates like Ohio and Demo-cratic ones like Maryland.

Joining him in supportingthe idea is the BBA TaskForce and the American Leg-islative Exchange Council. Arelated Convention of Statesmovement is also burgeon-ing around the country.

“When the national debtgoes up, economic opportu-nity goes down. And whenthe debt goes down, oppor-tunity improves,” Kasichsaid, distilling his positionto its essence.

That notion is far fromuniversally accepted, evenas Republican PresidentDonald Trump and con-gressional Republicans aredebating a federal budgetthat endorses def ic i tsadding almost $10 trillionto the national debt overthe coming decade.

The nonpartisan Centeron Budget and Policy Prior-ities, based in Washington,says exact balance of a fed-eral budget is less impor-tant than keeping debtfrom growing faster thanthe economy. The centerestimates balancing thebudget within 10 yearswould require more than $6trillion in program cuts orrevenue increases.

20 years later:20 years later:No solution onNo solution onschool fundingschool fundingQuestions raised by DeRolphQuestions raised by DeRolphruling remain unansweredruling remain unansweredBy Jim SiegelThe Columbus Dispatch

Twenty years after theOhio Supreme Court is-sued a landmark rulingthat the state's schoolfund-ing system was unconsti-tutional, the Statehousedebates over many of thesame issues remain preva-lent.

But here's one thingthat has changed — andnot for the better.

For the first 13 years orso a f ter the in i t ia lDeRolph decision, state of-ficials attempted to deter-mine just how much itcosts to fund a high-qual-ity education in Ohio, saidHoward Fleeter, an ana-lyst and economist whosework on school funding is-sues dates back to 1991.

But not anymore.The current funding

setup does not even try todetermine how muchmoney is needed to meetthe Ohio constitution's re-quirement for the state toprovide a “thorough andefficient” education.

“We need to pick it backup,” Fleeter said. “Nowwe're just talking aboutdollar amounts that aren'ttied to anything.”

That relates to whatsome say is the biggest on-going issue in Ohio's edu-cation system — theachievement gap betweenhigh poverty and low-poverty districts. Year af-ter year, test scores acrossthe state strongly corre-late with poverty levels.

“We need to figure outwhat to do about that,”Fleeter said. “That wasn'tspecifically mentioned inthe DeRolph decision, butthis has to be about morethan equalizing dollars.We have to get to thepoint where we're equaliz-ing outcomes.”

There's no questionmany improvements havecome since the March 24,1997, ruling, when JusticeFrancis Sweeney wrote forthe 4-3 majority: “Wemust ensure that there isenough money that stu-dents have the chance tosucceed because of the ed-ucational opportunity pro-vided, not in spite of it.”

Billions more are beingspent on Ohio schools, in-cluding a charter schoolsystem created withinmonths of that ruling. Thestate has spent more than$11 billion on school facili-ties — addressing anothersharp criticism from thecourt — opening 1,146buildings.

Since 1997, includingthree subsequent SupremeCourt rulings all sayingthat state officials werefalling short of the “thor-ough and efficient” stan-dard, funding formulashave changed multipletimes.

While many observersagree that Ohio leadersnever implemented the“complete systematicoverhaul” ordered by acourt that did not offerspecific remedies itself,some say they've seen im-provements.

“I think our funding sys-tem is better now than itwas before, but it's notwhere we need it to beyet,” Fleeter said.

House Republicans areconsidering what to dowith Gov. John Kasich'slatest education fundingplan, part of his two-year,$66.9 billion budget. Thebasis of the formula is acalculation called the stateshare index, which usesproperty values and in-come levels to determinehow much funding thestate will cover for eachdistrict. Generally, poorerdistricts get more perpupil.

“I've never been super-excited about the stateshare index. I see theflaws in it,” said Rep.Ryan Smith, R-Bidwell,chairman of the House Fi-nance Committee. “It'sone of these things that'salways challenging and al-ways will be to a certainextent.”

There are still plenty ofinequities when it comesto total available resourcesand course offerings inwealthier suburban dis-tricts compared to poorerschools, but it has im-proved, Fleeter said. Hepointed to two pieces ofthe formula — targetedassistance and capacity aid— aimed at districts un-able to raise adequate lo-cal funding.

“It's over a billion dollars.That's a big deal,” Fleetersaid. “When you thinkabout over-reliance on theproperty tax, the court wasreally unclear about whatthat meant. Those compo-nents do help with that.”

But Kasich's plan doesnot increase the base per-pupil funding amount andleaves 390 districts withless state funding over thenext two years. Fleetersays flaws with the stateshare index are magnifiedbecause Kasich just didn'tput much addit ionalmoney into his plan.

ReopenedReopenedStreetsboroStreetsborobridge wasbridge wasteam effortteam effortFaced with an emergency,Faced with an emergency,government got job donegovernment got job done

The reopening of the Lake Rockwell Bridgein Streetsboro less than six months afterit abruptly closed is proof that govern-

ment, despite its many critics, does work and, inthis instance at least, has the ability to respondto an unforeseen challenge in record time.

The bridge on S.R. 14, a major connector uti-lized by 15,000 motorists each day, was shutdown on Oct. 3 when a repair crew discoveredthat the pylons supporting it were buckling to

the extent that they posed adire safety hazard.

Inconveniencing the thou-sands who depended on thebridge took a back seat to

addressing the emergency.What Streetsboro Mayor Glenn Broska de-

scribed as “a monumental task” — demolishingand rebuilding the bridge — began shortly after-ward.

The designation of the bridge as an “emer-gency Type A” project by the Ohio Departmentof Transportation gave the project priority sta-tus, enabling planning and construction to be ex-pedited in what one ODOT official described as“a common sense approach.”

Working on a tight construction schedule,ODOT was able to complete the project in 171days — a major accomplishment, especiallygiven the fact that the work was undertaken dur-ing the winter months.

The relative mildness of the winter helpedgreatly in enabling the Ruhlin Co. to proceedwith construction of the 162-foot span.

A major part of the project involved encasingthe steel pylons in concrete and a protectivevinyl envelope to protect them from deteriora-tion.

The closing of the bridge resulted in de-tours for thousands of motorists, whichcaused congestion on nearby roadways.ODOT, to its credit, addressed that by in-stalling a traffic light at the intersection of In-firmary Road and S.R. 303 when it soon be-came apparent that additional traffic therewas posing problems.

The joint efforts of many made the timelycompletion of the Lake Rockwell Bridge projectpossible.

We commend Mayor Broska and other cityofficials for responding immediately to thesafety issue. ODOT’s decision to make theStreetsboro project a priority, and altering itsconstruction calendar to accommodate it, madea major difference — had the replacement ofthe bridge been deemed of lesser importance, itprobably would have remained closed muchlonger.

The Ruhlin Company also deserves credit, notonly for its initial discovery of the conditionsthat led to the bridge shutdown but for undertak-ing the reconstruction of the bridge, in the mid-dle of the winter, and completing the projectahead of schedule.

Government may not be perfect, but when aserious need arises, it can and does work. Justask the 15,000 travelers who are again able touse the Lake Rockwell Bridge.

A grimA grimpicture ofpicture ofpovertypovertyin Ohioin Ohio

COLUMBUS — More than1.6 million Ohioans — that’sabout 14.8 percent of thepopulation in the state —were living below the federalpoverty line in 2015, accord-ing to a new report issued acouple of days ago by groupsthat advocate on behalf of theneedy.

And that, the reports’ au-thors said, likely isn’t repre-sentative of all of the resi-dents who aren’t making endsmeet, thanks to federal guide-lines they say are in need ofupdating.

Regardless, the bottom-linemessage of “2016 State ofPoverty: A Portrait of OhioFamilies” is that many Ohioansare barely scraping by, withgrandparents playing the roleof primary caregiver for theirgrandkids, food pantries open-ing on college campuses toserve students (and sometimesstaff) and fewer of the higher-paying jobs that the state en-joyed in decades past.

That’s not even mentioningadvocacy groups’ concernsabout federal budget discus-sions that could lead to bigcuts in programs aimed at help-ing vulnerable populations.

“You talk about pulling therug out from hundreds and hun-dreds of thousands of people,”said Philip E. Cole, executivedirector of Ohio Association ofCommunity Action Agencies.“You’re talking about leavingpeople out on the street.”

According to the report:• Federal Guidelines: A

family of four (two adults, twokids) needs to earn about 146percent of the federal povertylevel to be self sufficient —that is, to cover the costs ofhousing, food, clothing, utili-ties and other basic needs.

A single-parent with twochildren would have to work109 hours per week to be ableto pay the basics costs of liv-ing, if earning minimum wage.

“That leaves 59 hours (perweek) for everything else —so, sleeping, driving to thegrocery store, making dinner,paying bills…,” said LynnetteCook, executive director ofCommunity Research Part-ners.

Cole added, “That’s im-moral, and no family can sur-vive that.”

• Kids: Among other alarm-ing trends, Cook said a littlemore than 25 percent of chil-dren younger than six, 21.2percent of those age six to 11,and nearly 18 percent of thosea g e 1 2 - 1 7 a r e l i v i n g i npoverty.

“About 8 percent of kids inOhio are both food insecure,meaning they don’ t haveenough to eat … and likely inel-igible for assistance,” she said,adding that the results werenearly double the national rate.

• Grandparents: There arenearly 40,000 households inthe state where grandparentsare responsible for caring fortheir grandchildren, with thelatter’s parents no longerpresent.

“That’s the official number,”Cole said, noting that there arelikely many more such arrange-ments that have not been re-ported to agencies.

About 22 percent of grand-parent-headed households areliving in poverty.

“Grandparents rarely plan totake custody of their grand-kids,” Cook said. “That’s notsomething that we typically do,so they’re not likely to be emo-tionally, much less financially,prepared for all that that en-tails.”

• College Students: At leasta dozen Ohio colleges or uni-vers i t i es now have foodpantries on campus.

“The really shocking thing isat least one of these campusescan now open their food pantryto their staff,” Cole said. “Apublic college, where peopleare getting a paycheck fromthe state of Ohio… and in theend they still qualify for a foodpantry.”

H e a d d e d , “ T o m a n yOhioans, public universitiesare no longer affordable.”

DAVID DIXAlong the Way

HongHong

GlaserGlaser

Has China’s economy surpassed that ofthe U.S.?

That’s what Janet and I heard Mondayduring the Hiram College forum, “A Com-ing Conflict in the South China Sea?”

James Thompson, an associate profes-sor of political science and the director ofHiram’s Garfield Institute for Public Lead-ership, said that by some figures, China’seconomy, in terms of output, has sur-passed the U.S. economy.

I looked up sources and found the as-sessments vary, but withChina’s economy growing at7 percent per year versusthe 2 to 3 percent pace ofthe U.S. and with China’spopulation four times the size of the U.S.population, China’s economy will soon belarger than that of the U.S. if it is not al-ready.

Furthermore, India, whose population isalso four times that of the U.S. and whoseeconomy is finally taking off, is projectedto top the U.S. in economic output, butnot until 2050, the articles indicated.

If the measurement focuses on wealthper individual, the U.S. will remain aheadof both China and India for much longer.The articles mentioned the huge U.S.trade imbalance with China, a point Presi-dent Trump often brings up.

South China Sea rivalsHiram’s Garfield Institute forum, “A

Coming Conflict in the South China Sea?,”brought two experts to the campus: NongHong, a Chinese citizen residing in Wash-ington, D.C., who heads the Institute forChina-America Studies, and BonnieGlaser, director of the China Power Pro-ject at the Center for Strategic and Inter-national Studies in Washington.

The two described competing claims byseven nations surrounding the SouthChina Sea: the Philippines, Vietnam,Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia and Chinaplus Taiwan, most of whom are buildingislands out of tiny rocky outposts, some ofthem known as the Spratley Islands, toaugment their claims of sovereignty.

The South China Sea is rich in oil de-posits and fertile fishing grounds and theisland-building, with the Chinese evenadding airstrips capable of handling jetfighter planes, amounts to a man-made en-vironmental disaster.

The Philippines and Vietnam havesought U.S. backing against the Chinese,who have built more islands than anyother nation to legitimize their claims ofsovereignty over the entire South ChinaSea. The Obama Administration, encour-aged by Japan and wanting those waters

kept open for internationalshipping, sent warshipsthrough the South China Seaunopposed. The Trump Ad-ministration has yet to indi-cate its position.

Bonnie Glaser sa idFrance, which once heldmuch of Southeast Asia as acolony called Indochina, re-mains active in the area andhas also sent warships through the South

China Sea as a show of forceto keep it open.

The Philippines last sum-mer, before the Interna-tional Court of Justice in

The Hague, successfully argued its casethat China’s island- building and claims ofsovereignty encroached on Filipinosovereignty over a small portion of theSouth China Sea. China rejected thosefindings. Miffed at U.S. support for thePhilippines, China noted the U.S. Senatehas never ratified the Law of the SeasTreaty on which the findings were based.Chinese outwork us?

In a post-forum conversation, NongHong, a charmer, said the Chinese werepleasantly surprised by the congeniality ofRex Tillerson, America’s new secretary ofstate, who recently visited Beijing. Itboosted hopes for good relations with theU.S., she said. She said Henry Kissingerand the late President Richard Nixon re-main very much admired in China becausethey re-established relations between ourtwo countries.

She had been able to visit HenryKissinger, accompanying other Chinese of-ficials since locating in Washington, and

although Kissinger, now inhis 90s, is becoming physi-cally frail, “his mind is crys-tal clear.”

She said China’s leadersfavored Trump slightly overHillary Clinton because theyfound Clinton irritatinglyself-righteous in lecturing

them about their human rights shortcom-ings.

When Janet and I complimented her onChina’s rapid economic advances, NongHong smiled and responded that the Chi-nese generally work very hard comparedto what she has seen in the U.S. andCanada. When doing her doctoral work inAlberta, she said she was surprised at theamount of time off work Canadians areable to take. The U.S. pace of work is simi-lar to Canada’s, she said.

“We can’t afford that in China,” shesaid.

Cattle in streets posed problem in KentCattle in streets posed problem in KentROGER DI PAOLOPortage Pathways

The dawn of the 1880s sig-naled a period of growth forKent.

The Erie Railroad remainedthe town’s leading employer, butit had gained another: Turner &Sons Manufacturing Co. openedin the five-story structure alongthe Cuyahoga River that hadbeen without a tenant since theKent family had completed it 30years earlier. The firm eventuallyemployed more than 120 in itstextile mill, the second largestwork force in Kent.

Population grew, too. The1880 census revealed that Kenthad 3,300 residents — an in-crease of about 1,000 over theprevious decade, but still behindneighboring Ravenna; the countyseat counted 4,200 residents.

With growth came growingpains, including a call for what to-day would be termed infrastruc-ture improvements — in thiscase, decent sidewalks and light-ing in the tiny business district,which was centered on Main andWater streets. “The people of this

period were no longer satisfiedwith the inconvenience of theCivil War days,” historian KarlGrismer observed in his “Historyof Kent.”

During the summer of 1879,stone gutters were installed alongWater Street from Main to Eriestreets, a development the KentBulletin hailed as “undoubtedlyone of the best public improve-ments ever made in Kent.” Thegutters replaced “a series of mud-holes” that the Bulletin said were“foul nuisances of the worstkind.”

That solved one problem in thebusiness district but another,which posed a special inconve-nience to pedestrians, remained.

The sidewalks there werewooden planks that had been in-stalled in the 1860s. The passingof time had taken its toll and the

walks had deteriorated, rottingand leaving holes that posed navi-gational challenges to those unfa-miliar with them.

“Some of the planks were insuch condition that when a per-son stepped on one of them itwas likely to fly up and give hima vigorous slap,” Grismer wrote.“This is said to have been partic-ularly annoying when it happenedto young lovers while strolling onwarm spring nights.”

A move began for replacementof the wooden walks, but it metwith opposition from the handfulof landowners in the business dis-trict who would end up footingthe bill for the improvements.

Problems created by cattle andother animals that wanderedopenly on the streets of the busi-ness district added to the side-walk dilemma. The cattle contrib-uted greatly to wear and tear onthe wooden walkways.

Instead of replacing the walks,however, Village Council passeda “wandering cattle” law in 1880,forbidding cows, swine or horses

from running at large in the busi-ness district, and making theirowners liable to arrest and finesof $1 to $5. That would beroughly $20 to $100 today.

While that solved the problemof animals wandering downtown,the wooden walks remained, inthe words of the Bulletin, “ex-ceedingly dangerous to life andlimb.” Then a new problem arose,one that eventually helped lead totheir replacement: The walkswere deemed hazardous to publichealth.

Outbreaks of diphtheria andscarlet fever occurred in the early1880s, taking the lives of severalKent residents, and the rottingwalkways were blamed as a con-tributing factor to the spread ofdisease.

“At many places the walksserve as drains for the streets,”the Bulletin noted, “and beneaththe planks are accumulations ofreeking filth, the noxious exhala-tions of which poison the air webreathe.”

That helped weaken resistance

to replacing the walks, whicheventually were removed. Theywere replaced by stone or brickin the downtown area, gravelelsewhere. And, as Grismer ob-served, “It was not reported thatthe expense of putting down newwalks caused anyone to go bank-rupt.”

Streetlights came next. Theirinstallation was controversial,too, but advocates of lightingwon out partly because if it wasinexpensive.

A dozen oil lamps were put inplace in 1881. The followingyear, the village authorized $500— no small sum at the time —for 50 gasoline lamps. They, inturn, were replaced by gas light-ing in the business district.

The town employed Ovie Ni-chols as its lamp lighter, and hemade the rounds each night atdusk — “usually followed by acrowd of youngsters,” Grismerwrote.

By then, the cattle, swine andhorses were off the streets ofKent.

Fake news and weather forecastingFake news and weather forecastingCHRIS SCHILLIGLeft of CenterThe Review

Given the sophisticatedtechnology available tom e t e o r o l o g i s t s t h e s edays, it's surprising theycan ever be wrong.

But they can be, andthey are.

R e s i d e n t s i n s o m eparts of the U.S. learnedthis last week, when Win-ter Storm Stella, whichthe Nat ional WeatherService said was going tobe a big deal, fizzled in-stead.

That's not to say thatthe storm was a completedud. According to TheWeather Channel, partso f n o r t h e r n V e r m o n twere hammered with 58inches of snow on March16, and Hartwick, N.Y.,received more than 48inches.

But in some larger met-ropolitan areas, Stel lawas practically stillborn.In New York City, where

meteorologists predictedsnowfalls between 12 and18 inches, only seveninches hit the ground.

The Washington Postreported that the Na-tional Weather Serviceknew two days beforethe storm that it mightnot produce as muchsnow as originally fore-cast. Yet the service con-tinued to peddle possiblehigher snowfall totals toavoid confusing the pub-lic.

That led Post reporterJames Samenow to hurl abig fat snowball at the or-ganization. “The WeatherService doesn't have tolimit itself to communi-cating the worst-case sce-nario for the public to

pay attention to a high-stakes forecast,” he wroteon March 15.

“The public is smarterthan it is given credit for;it can understand uncer-tainty if it is explainedwell; and it appreciatesknowing about changesto the forecast.”

The following day, theNWS defended its fore-cast in a Q&A session.Director Louis Uccellininoted the challenges off o r e c a s t i n g a s t o r macross the entire Midwestand the obligation the or-ganization has to variousmunicipalities and other“core partners” who areresponsible for publ icsafety.

“For this storm, weknew there would be ma-jor impacts in metropoli-tan areas,” Uccellini said.“Overall, I believe thepreparations and on-the-

ground decisions werereasonable, faci l i tatedcleanup efforts, and likelyprevented accidents.”

Of course, residentsoutside of major metro-politan areas and thosewho live on the fringe ofdifferent television sta-tions' signals know thatweather forecasts seldomapply to them directly.

Even when televisionstorm coverage does af-fect us directly, as it didwith the March 15-16storm, event fatigue setsin rather early. Coverageof grocery-store runs bypanicked shoppers andplugs for sophisticatedsystems for school-cancel-

lation news (the lattersponsored by big-nameadvertisers) begin daysbefore the first flakes fall.

By the time a storm ac-tually arrives, anythingless than a “snowpoca-lypse” is a disappoint-ment.

If President Trump'soft-repeated cries of #fak-enews have any merit, itis in the case of journalis-tic weather forecasting.

It's no wonder, I sup-pose, that the NationalWeather Service feels ithas to compete with theo n g o i n g n o i s e f r o mbroadcast television andwith the short attentionspans of some viewers.

Yet the NWS should beabove such showmanship.Just report the facts, asclearly as you know them,with appropriate caveatswhen a forecast could beless severe than origi-nally planned.

Without a doubt, im-provements in weatherforecasting have savedlives and made it easierfor communities to planfor and clean up from var-ious storms.

Still, though, I'm nos-talgic for the days whenyou knew a storm wascoming only when youwoke up in the morning,looked out the window,and saw it was alreadyhere.

Looking ahead in rear-view mirrorsLooking ahead in rear-view mirrorsMARTIN SCHRAMTribune News Service

In the summer of 1972, thebreak-in at the old DemocraticNational Committee in theWatergate building was foiledwhen night watchman FrankWills saw tape the burglars hadput over door latches. He calledthe cops.

The cops caught the crooks.And the crooks didn’t squeal,but their address book did. Itl isted a phone number for“Howard Hunt” — followed bytwo letters: “WH.”

Yup, White House.In the summer of 2016, the

break-in at the new DemocraticNational Committee headquar-ters on Capitol Hill was foiledbecause the perps left electronicerror code messages on docu-ments they cyber-swiped andleaked to embarrass and maybehelp defeat Democratic presiden-tial candidate Hillary Clinton.The perps’ error codes weren’twritten in English but in Cyrilliccharacters.

Yup, Russian.Yet Of f i c ia l Washington

seemed oddly aghast and agogwhen its news screens flashed aNEWSBREAK that basically re-vealed what we all should haveknown had to be happening —based on what we’d known formore than half a year. FBI Direc-tor James Comey confirmed at a

House Intelligence Committeethat: (1) The FBI has been inves-tigating since July 2016 the elec-tronic theft, allegedly by Russianoperatives, of DNC and otherDemocratic political documents;and (2) The FBI has also beeninvestigating extensive contactsbetween Donald Trump’s cam-paign advisers and Russian offi-cials and businessmen close toPresident Vladimir Putin.

So now we must look ahead byfirst peeking into our rear-viewmirrors.

Penultimate blame for the1972 DNC break-in was ulti-mately affixed because the topRepublican on the Senate Water-gate Committee, Sen. HowardBaker of Tennessee, put patrio-tism ahead of politics and keptasking his now-famous question:

“What did the president knowand when did he know it?

Penultimate blame for the2016 DNC break-in can be af-fixed only if the leading Senateand House Republicans deep-sixthe political expediency thatdominates both parties todayand are willing to patrioticallypursue the truth behind the most

audacious foreign attack onAmerica’s democracy in the his-tory of our nation. And since wereally knew last year so muchmore than we seem to remem-ber, we must pursue a similarbut somewhat different questionof this president:

What did the president NOTknow and when did he NOTknow it?

Because nothing Trump hassaid or done in his soft accep-tance of Russia’s alleged miscon-duct makes any sense — unlesshe genuinely was unaware ofeven what we all had seen in thenews since summer.

We knew — and Trumpshould have known — that whenhe appointed Gen. MichaelFlynn as his first national secu-rity adviser, Flynn had gotten atleast $65,000 from Russian en-terprises with close ties to Putin.We all saw the video of Flynn be-side Putin at a Russian TV ban-quet, which was also a paid gig.

We knew — and Trumpshould have known — that hisformer campaign chairman,Paul Manafort, was a paid advi-sor of a Ukrainian politicianwith close ties to Russia (welater learned he reportedly gotb i g - l e a g u e m o n e y f r o m awealthy businessman linked toPutin). Trump’s campaign for-

eign policy advisor, CarterPage, had contact with the Rus-sians and worked to drop GOPconvention platform languageon Ukraine that Putin opposed.Trump’s longtime pal RogerStone bragged bigtime last sum-mer about his ties to Wik-iLeaks’ Julian Assange and analleged Russian intelligencecutout known as Guccifer 2.0.Stone famously predicted Hil-lary Clinton’s top adviser JohnPodesta was about to become afigure in the leaks controversy— just before Podesta’s hackedemails were leaked.

Given all that, the FBI wouldhave been derelict if it hadlooked the other way andwasn’t investigating Russia’shack attack on a U.S. politicalparty. Sadly, the House Intelli-gence Republ icans seemedmainly to care about how U.S.journalists knew about theTrump team’s links to Russia —not about Russia’s attack on theUSA.

I believe Trump would havewon the presidency without

Putin’s help — because Clintonlost touch with her party’s bluecollar Rust Belt and rural base.

But now we must establishthat Trump really didn’t knowmuch about all the above linksbetween his team and Putin’s.Because if he knew, then wemust wonder if that shaped hissoft, look-the-other-way policytoward Russia’s apparent attackagainst America’s democracy.House Intelligence Chair DevinNunes, R-Calif., Wednesdaytook new-found info to Trump’sWhite House without first shar-ing it with his committee’sDemocrats. That’s so wrong.Republican throwback patriots,Sens. John McCain and LindsayGraham, are concerned, and soam I.

America now requires a sepa-rate (unfortunately costly) bi-partisan blue-ribbon commis-sion to do the nonpartisan fact-finding the House GOP seemsunwilling to do.

The whole world is watchingto see if America can truly begreat again.

““Nothing Trump has said or done in his softacceptance of Russia’s alleged misconductmakes any sense.

““By the time a storm actuallyarrives, anything less than a‘snowpocalypse’ is a disappointment.

Ryan: Dems must be force for changeRyan: Dems must be force for changeBy MATTHEW MERCHANTSta Writer

Professor David Cohen, right, moderated the event.Professor David Cohen, right, moderated the event.

U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan hadplenty to discuss during atown hall meeting on Satur-day at the University ofAkron.

Following the defeat on Fri-day of the American HealthCare Act — President DonaldTrump’s plan to replace theAffordable Care Care, knownas Obamacare — Ryan spokeabout Congress’s way for-ward and the next steps forDemocrats.

Using a question and an-swer format moderated byUA Professor David Cohenof the Ray C. Bliss Instituteof Applied Politics, Ryan alsohit on topics ranging fromObamacare fixes, Trump’sties to Russia, ways to fundprograms set to be cut underthe proposed national bud-get, and comprehensive im-migration reform.

Ryan said the AHCA wasa policy “that was piecedtogether (by Republicans)to try to meet the rhetoricover the last seven years”that Obamacare was hurt-ing the country.

“ I th ink that theDemocrats need to offer afix. I think Obamacare hasdone a lot of good. We’vecovered 20 million people,we’ve moved the system to-ward prevent ion. . .weshaved off roughly $110 bil-lion from the deficit (over10 years) ...But there arethings we need to workon,” Ryan said, adding that

a serious conversation withthe president is in order.

Democrats have a keyrole in bringing positivechange to the country, hesaid, and it should beginwith grassroot movements.

“We’ve got to figure outhow to have a sustainablemovement in the countrythat is progressive in na-ture,” he said. He also saidit’s also important for politi-

cal leaders to “connect withpeople where they are.”

“We really need to em-bed ourselves in communi-ties. We need to be at thefoodbank, at the church, atthe school, and not just atelection time. People needto look at us as part of thecommunity,” Ryan said.

On helping small busi-nesses, Ryan said the gov-ernment should encourage

innovation and education,as well as reforming thecomplex tax code, in orderto strengthen the economyfrom the ground up.

“The tax code needs re-formed. It’s a hot mess. It’sgot to go,” Ryan said. “Weneed to ensure that, wherewe’re at in the economy,start-up businesses, en-trepreneurs and smallerbusinesses are not overbur-

dened with a huge tax sys-tem. And there’s nothingwrong with Democrats say-ing that.”

He also supports cuttingand monitoring the grow-ing defense budget pro-posed by Trump, is callingfor an audit of Medicaid tosort out millions of dollarsin payment problems, and aprogressive tax policy thattaxes high-ncome citizens.

On Trump’s alleged tieswith Russia, Ryan said heis pushing for a 9/11-stylecommission to investigatethe president. “This issuegoes directly to the heart ofour democracy: The votingsystem of the UnitedStates,” Ryan said. “Thereis evidence that (the Rus-sians) were trying to influ-ence this election. They didinfluence this election.”

On immigration, Ryansaid he supports compre-hensive reform that wouldallow those with work orschool visas to obtain citi-zenship upon completion ofa diploma or graduate pro-gram. That issue alone, hesaid, could bring tremen-dous growth to loca leconomies by keeping edu-cated and skilled workersin the U.S.

To end the discussion,Ryan focused on the bestway for citizens to handlethe actions of Trump andpolicies they might dis-agree with.

“When the president isperpetuating so much mis-information, and it’s be-come almost acceptable, wehave got to be the oneswho call BS. And we haveto know what we’re talkingabout before we engage inthat,” he said. “I think that,in the coming years, theAmerican people are goingto be looking for verystraightforward, practicalsolutions that address thereal problems and not abunch of hype.”

Kasich security unit cost nearly $250,000Kasich security unit cost nearly $250,000By ALAN JOHNSONThe Columbus Dispatch

Gov. John Kasich's pay-check is a relative bargainfor Ohio taxpayers.

The cost of his frequenttravel may be another mat-ter.

Kasich was the 187th-highest paid state employeelast year at $148,315, slip-ping from the previous yearwhen he was 174th on thelist — and a precipitous de-cline from 1994, whenthen-Gov. George V.Voinovich 's pay of$115,752 annually placedhim 15th highest.

Kasich and otherstatewide elected office-holders have not seen a payincrease since 2008.

But the nine state troop-ers who formed the core of

Kasich's security detailearned $248,070 in over-time in 2016, the vast ma-jority for guarding him dur-ing his frequent campaign-ing for the Republican pres-idential nomination. Kasichdropped out of the raceMay 4.

The troopers' 2016 over-t ime represented a$25,827, or 12 percent,jump from 2015, when Ka-sich officially announcedhis bid for the nominationin July. His security detailearned $222,243 in over-time during 2015, a 64 per-cent jump from the previ-ous year.

Overall, pay raises forstate employees boostedOhio's non-university pay-roll by $102 million lastyear, bringing the total to$3.12 billion.

The salary database fornon-university state em-ployees was released Fridayby the Ohio Department ofAdministrative Services af-ter a public-records requestin early January by TheDispatch. It is the 21st yearthe newspaper acquiredand analyzed state pay toemployees, although theAdministrative ServicesDepartment said Friday itmay no longer provide suchinformation for the publicin the future. The data arebased on pay for calendaryear 2016.

The state paid employees$3,119,093,691 last year, aboost of 3.3 percent, mostlytied to a 2.5 percent payhike negotiated by the statewith labor unions, effectiveJuly 1, 2016. Some of theincrease resulted from

retroactive and one-timepayments from the previ-ous year.

In 2016, seven state em-ployees made more than$300,000, compared withfour the year before. Lastyear, 83 earned more than$200,000, versus 59 in 2015.

The top pay earner forthe seventh consecutiveyear was Dr. ZinoviGoubar, a psychiatrist atNorthcoast BehavioralHealthcare, a state psychi-atric hospital. Goubar re-ceived $483,796 last year,including $278,020 listedas overtime pay, or moreaccurately “on duty” pay,which is compensation em-ployees at state institutionsreceive for covering shiftsaround the clock. Goubarwas paid $456,243 in 2015,$268,613 of it in overtime.

The other 19 top-paidemployees were also psy-chiatrists or physician spe-cialists at state mental-health facilities, with theexception of Dr. AndrewEddy, medical director forthe Department of Rehabili-tation and Correction;Eddy was paid $144.23 anhour, a total of $302,365for the year.

On average, male stateworkers earned $54,123last year, females $50,959.Asians made the most onaverage, $69,293, followedby American Indians ,$55,843; whites, $53,633;Hispanics, $52,370; andblacks, $49,564.

State statistics showedan uptick in the number offull- and part-time employ-ees to 52,238, an increasefrom 51,806 in 2015, less

than 1 percent. There were55,442 workers on board in2011, Kasich's first year inoffice.

Overt ime pay roseslightly last year to $123.2million, up from $112.4million in 2015. Almost halfof last year's total, about$57 million, was rolled upby the Department of Reha-bilitation and Correction —which, of course, staffs pris-ons 24/7/365. Leaders ofthe union that covers cor-rections officers often com-plain about understaffing.

The relatively mild win-ters may have contributedto another drop in overtimepay for the Ohio Depart-ment of Transportation.The 7 percent decreasefrom 2015 followed a 25percent drop that year from2014.

Colleges may cut, combine coursesColleges may cut, combine coursesTOLEDO, Ohio (AP) —

Two public universities inOhio are considering cut-ting or combining pro-grams following a requestfrom Republican Gov. JohnKasich to find ways to savemoney.

The University of Toledois reviewing 11 programs,including American stud-ies, Asian studies, Germanand French, The Blade re-ported.

Other programs underreview are digital arts, art

history, global studies, gen-eral business and com-merce, athletic training, ge-ology, and clinical labora-tory science.

“These 11 programsare not only duplicative,but they are low enroll-ment,” said universityProvost Andrew Hsu.“Many of the programshave been look ing a tthemselves and reviewingand discussing for collab-oration.”

The programs could be

left intact, eliminated or of-fered in coordination withnearby Bowling GreenState University.

The state Department ofHigher Education and agovernor’s college-afford-ability task force instructedpublic universities to re-view programs offered byother public universities inthe same area.

Toledo’s board oftrustees unanimously ap-proved the list on Monday.

Program quality, contri-

bution to the university’smission, cost-effectivenessand demand will be evalu-ated.

Faculty members saidprogram cuts wouldn’t savemoney for years becausetenured faculty wouldn’t befired.

Some courses must beavailable, professors said,because students in othermajors take them or they’reneeded to satisfy accredita-tion requirements.

Bowling Green hasn’t

finalized the list of pro-grams it plans to review,Provost Rodney Rogerssaid. He expects the listw i l l o v e r l a p w i t hToledo’s.

That list must be submit-ted to the state by April 30.Final decisions are ex-pected by Dec. 31.

“We are all aware of theneed to make sure we canbe as efficient as possible. Ithink we are certainly tak-ing this very seriously,”Rogers said.

Europeans vow unityEuropeans vow unity

Associated Press

ROME — With Britainalready heading out thedoor, the 27 remainingEuropean Union nations onSaturday sought to keepthe bloc moving forward byenshrining a pledge to givemember nations more free-dom to form partial al-liances and set policy whenunanimity is out of reach.

They marked the 60thanniversary of their found-ing treaty as a turningpoint in their history in theknowledge that BritishPrime Minister TheresaMay will officially triggerdivorce proceedings fromthe bloc next week, a factthat European CommissionPresident Jean-ClaudeJuncker called “a tragedy.”

Desperately trying toportray that sustained unityis the only way ahead in aglobalized world, beingable to walk away from asummit without acrimonywas already a sort of vic-tory.

“We didn’t have a majorclash or conflict, contraryto what many thought,”

Juncker said.EU Council President

Donald Tusk said that sus-tained unity was the onlyway for the EU to survive.

“Europe as a political en-tity will either be united, orwill not be at all,” he toldEU leaders at a solemn ses-sion in precisely the sameornate hall on the ancientCapitoline Hill where theTreaty of Rome foundingthe EU was signed onMarch 25, 1957.

To move ahead though,the leaders recognized thatfull unity on all things willbe unworkable.

“We will act together, atdifferent paces and inten-sity where necessary, whilemoving in the same direc-tion,” said the Rome Decla-ration signed by the 27 na-tions.

The EU has often donethat in practice in the past,with only 19 nations in theeurozone and not all mem-bers participating in theSchengen zone of border-less travel. It has alreadyextended to social legisla-tion and even divorce rulesamong EU nationals.

So German Chancellor

Angela Merkel sought toassuage fears that it wouldlead to a further unravelingof unity.

“The Europe of differentspeeds does not in any waymean that it is not a com-mon Europe,” Merkel saidafter the ceremonies. “Weare saying here very clearlythat we want to go in acommon direction. Andthere are things that arenot negotiable,” highlight-ing the EU freedom ofmovement, goods, peopleand services.

In a series of speeches,EU leaders also acknowl-edged how the bloc hadstrayed into a complicatedstructure that had slowlylost touch with its citizens,compounded by the severefinancial crisis that struckseveral member nationsover the past decade.

Italian Prime MinisterPaolo Gentiloni, who washosting the summit, saidthat over the past dozenyears the EU’s developmenthad stalled.

“Unfortunate ly , westopped” he said, and “ittriggered a crisis of rejec-tion.”

Health planHealth planfailure avertsfailure avertsMedicaid cutsMedicaid cutsBy GEOFF MULVIHILLAssociated Press

CHERRY HILL, N.J. —Governors of both partieshad warned Congress forweeks that the Republicanhealth care bill threatenedto saddle their states withbig costs and potentiallyleave millions of peoplewithout coverage, espe-cially because of the cut-backs planned to Medicaid.

The bill’s withdrawal onFriday left in place the sta-tus quo under the Afford-able Care Act. That waswelcomed by several gov-ernors in the states thatopted to expand Medicaidunder former PresidentBarack Obama’s law.

The Medicaid expan-sion has provided cover-age for 11 million peoplein the 31 states that ac-cepted it.

“I am pleased today’svote has been held as thisbill would drastically af-fect the Commonwealth’sability to ensure essentialcare for thousands of peo-ple,” Massachusetts Gov.Charlie Baker, a Republi-can in a Democratic-lean-ing state, said in a state-ment after the bill waspulled from consideration.“This version does not re-flect the needs of statesand does not containmany critical aspects ofhealth care reform thatour administration hascommunicated to the fed-eral government.”

Jerry Brown, Califor-nia’s Democratic gover-nor, was fiery when hespoke in Washington,D.C., earlier in the week,calling the Republicanmeasure “a dangerousbill.” His state estimatedannual costs of $6 billionstarting in 2020, when theMedicaid changes wouldhave hit.

In a Twitter messageFriday, Brown said he wasrelieved the bill was with-drawn, adding: “The

#ACA endures. But for to-morrow, we must girdourselves for the battlesyet to come.”

Reducing the amount offederal money for Medicaidwas the chief concernamong governors becausethe state-federal programaccounts for such a largeshare of most state budgets.People who lose their healthcoverage tend to show up inemergency rooms, wherethe cost for their care is ex-pensive and often falls backon the state.

The bill would haveended Obama’s Medicaidexpansion and reduced fu-ture federal financing forthe federal-state program.

Some states also wereplanning to make up fund-ing for Planned Parent-hood because the Republi-can bill would have blockedpayments to the women’shealth group for a year.

The Congressional Bud-get Office estimated thatthe changes under theGOP bill would have in-creased the number ofuninsured people acrossthe U.S. by 14 million nextyear and 24 million by2026. The nonpartisan of-fice also said the planwould have reduced thefederal budget deficit by$150 billion over a decade.

The nonpartisan KaiserFamily Foundation foundin a study this week thattrying to maintain the ex-isting levels of Medicaidcoverage would have beencostly. It could have takencuts equal to one-fourth ofsome state governments’education budgets to keepthe coverage without rais-ing taxes, the report found.

Estimates from officialsin at least 17 states re-leased this month backedup that proposition. Stateswould have to decide be-tween spending a lot moreon Medicaid or reducingthe services provided andthe number of people cov-ered.

Attacks on rebel-held areas include air raids by Russians

BEIRUT — Airstrikeshit a women’s prison and aclinic in rebel-held parts ofSyria on Saturday, killingand wounding scores ofpeople amid clashes onmultiple fronts betweengovernment forces and in-surgent groups in some ofthe country’s worst vio-lence in weeks, oppositionactivists said.

The airstrikes, of whichsome activists said includedRussian air raids, concen-trated on the rebel-heldnorthwestern province ofIdlib, the central provinceof Hama and suburbs of thecapital Damascus that havecome under attack by insur-gent groups over the pastweek.

One of the airstrikes hit amain street in the Damas-cus suburb of Hamouriyehkilling at least 16 peopleand wounded more than50, activists said. Theairstrikes caused wide de-struction in the area.

The U.N. Special Envoyfor Syria, Staffan de Mis-tura, said in a statement re-leased in Geneva that he isdeeply concerned by the re-cent escalation of violencein Syria, highlighting that itundermines a Dec. 30cease-fire brokered byTurkey, Iran and Russia

who back opposing partiesin the conflict.

The statement said deMistura had communicatedwith the foreign ministersof the three countries, ap-pealing to them to exert ur-gent efforts to uphold thecease-fire.

Speaking after meetingon Saturday with the U.N.envoy in Geneva as part of afresh round of Syrian peacetalks, Nasr al-Hariri, thehead of the main oppositiondelegation, lashed out at As-sad’s “killing machine” andboth named, and showedphotos of some of the vic-tims — including some fea-turing graphic imagery.

“This is the fault of war-planes,” he told reporters.“These are the ones whoclaim to fight terrorismwho are responsible for thishorr ib le massacre inHamouna.”

The Britain-based SyrianObservatory for HumanRights said the airstrikeson Hamouriyeh killed 16,including eight women andchildren, and woundedmore than 50. The LocalCoordination said 18 werekilled and dozens werewounded.

Both groups said somepeople are still missing, andthat the death toll couldrise.

“They have been hitting

Hamouriyeh for days buttoday they struck an areapacked with civilians,” saidAwis al-Shami of The CivilDefense search-and-rescuegroup, also known as theWhite Helmets, via textmessage.

The airstrikes come asinsurgent groups have beenon the offensive in Damas-cus and the central prov-ince of Hama for the pastdays. Government forcesand their allies launched acounteroffensive capturingsome of the areas they lostin Damascus and Hama.

Opposition activists alsoreported airstrikes in Idlibprovince hitting severaltowns and villages as wellas the provincial capital thecarries the same name.

The Observatory said aFriday night attack struck aprison run by militants,killing at least 16 people in-c luding prisoners andprison staff in Idlib city. Itadded that women wereamong the dead as well.

The monitoring group,which has a network of ac-tivists around the country,said some people werekilled by gunfire as prisonguards chased detaineeswho tried to flee after theattack.

The Syrian NationalCoalition, one of the largestopposition groups, said the

airstrikes on Idlib targetedamong other things awomen’s prison, sayingthat dozens of people werekilled or wounded.

The Observatory and theSyrian Civil Defense group,also known as the WhiteHelmets, said an airstrikestruck a clinic in the villageof Kfar Nubul in Idlib prov-ince. They had no immedi-ate word on casualties.

The Local CoordinationCommittees said five airraids struck the city of Idlibwithout giving further de-tails.

Idlib is a stronghold of

Syrian insurgent groupsand is regularly targeted bySyrian and Russian war-planes.

In the central province ofHama, Syrian governmentforces and their allieslaunched a counteroffen-sive, capturing some of theareas they lost in an attackby insurgents earlier thisweek.

The government-con-trolled Syrian Central Mili-tary Media said Saturdaythat government forces re-gained control of the vil-lage of Kawkab and re-pelled an attack on the

town of Qamhana.The Observatory re-

Violence eruptsViolence eruptsat pro-Trump rallyat pro-Trump rallyLos Angeles Times

HUNTINGTON BEACH,Calif. — Violence erupted ata Make America GreatAgain rally in HuntingtonBeach on Saturday when ananti-Trump protester al-legedly doused the femaleorganizer of the event withpepper spray and was imme-diately set upon by a groupof Trump supporters.

After spraying the marchorganizer, the man, wear-ing a black mask, was tack-led by a group of flag-wav-ing Trump supporters, whostarted punching and kick-ing him, according to wit-nesses at the scene.

The crowd then chasedthe man, who jumped overa fence and started runningalong Pacific Coast High-way, where he was de-tained by California High-way Patrol officers.

A handful of other counter-

protesters fled the scene.Travis Guenther, whose

wife was also pepper-sprayed, said he was amongthose who chased themasked man and hit himwith a flag that said “Trump,Make America Great Again.”

“I hit him five times withthe flag over his head,” saidGuenther, who yelled at theman as he was detained bylaw enforcement officials.

“How is your head?” heasked the man.

“Were not xenophobic,”Guenther said. “We’re notracist. We’re just proudAmericans.”

Jennifer Sterling of La-guna Beach, the organizerwho was hit with pepperspray, seemed unfazed bythe incident, which involveda small number of protesters.

“It was a quick reaction,”she said. “There was about 12of them.”

Sterling said the rally

was not simply for Trumpbut also “a patriotic rally,celebrating first respon-ders, military veterans, vicepresident and president.”

The noontime rally andmarch at Bolsa Chica StateBeach drew hundreds offlag-waving supporters ofPresident Donald Trump.

The event was slated torun from noon to 3 p.m. andwas one of about 40 affiliatedevents scheduled nationwidethroughout the day.

Though the march bearsDonald Trump’s campaignslogan and organizers else-where are making their sup-port for the president quiteclear, Sterling said before themarch that the local gathering— while pro-Trump — wouldhave a different focus. Partici-pants would be wearing blueribbons to support law en-forcement and donationswould be collected for veter-ans, she said.

Few tears at tribute for mother and daughterFew tears at tribute for mother and daughter

LOS ANGELES —Laughter, music and thetapping of dancing shoes re-verberated throughout apublic memorial to DebbieReynolds and Carrie Fisher,which loved ones say is justhow the actresses wouldhave wanted it.

There were few tearsthroughout the two-hourceremony Saturday, whichhonored the mother-daugh-ter duo’s impact on film, cul-ture and those who knewthem with a mix of photos,videos, and anecdotes thatkept the audience laughingand applauding.

Todd Fisher led the cere-mony, which he said wasintended to bring fans anintimate view of his motherand sister. He called it “ashow,” saying his motherhated to attend memorials.

Hundreds of fans —some wearing “Star Wars”attire — attended the pub-lic ceremony that featurednumerous family photosand Reynolds’ final inter-view reflecting on her lifeand philanthropy, and oneof Fisher’s high schoolfriends sharing some heroff-color emails to him.

A troupe from Reynolds’dance studio performed anhomage to “Singin’ in theRain,” the film that catapultedReynolds to stardom at age19. After an opening film thatwas an ode to Fisher’s “StarWars” role, a working R2D2unit came on stage, mourn-fully beeped and parked nextto a director’s chair withFisher’s name on it. Across

the stage, near a piano, sat anempty chair with Reynolds’name on it.

Fisher, 60, an actress andwriter who starred as PrincessLeia in the original “StarWars” trilogy, died Dec. 27 af-ter suffering a medical emer-gency days earlier aboard aflight from London. Reynolds,an Oscar-nominated actressfor her role in “The Unsink-able Molly Brown,” died thefollowing day at age 84.

Todd Fisher recounted hismother’s final moments andher remark that she wantedto be with her daughter.

“It was a very peaceful exitthat only my mother couldhave orchestrated,” he said tobooming laughter. “She wastrained in Hollywood wherethey teach you to make agreat entrance, and exit.”

Actor Dan Aykroyd de-scribed Fisher, his one-time

fiancée, as a chatterbox whonever let him speak. He de-scribed using the Heimlichmaneuver on her once, andjoked that if he had been onthe plane where Fisher fell illin December, he “might havebeen able to save her again.”

He echoed a sentiment ex-pressed by many early in hisremarks. “We really shouldn’tbe here this soon,” he said.

When speakers weren’t de-livering one-liners — somethat had been uttered orpenned by Fisher andReynolds — music and dancetook over the stage. The cere-mony featured a new songJames Blunt wrote afterFisher’s death, and the GayMen’s Chorus of Los Angelesperformed a somber renditionof Cyndi Lauper’s “TrueColors” that celebratedFisher’s status as a feministicon.

McCain: Trump shouldMcCain: Trump shouldaddress Russian roleaddress Russian roleUrges president to discuss allegedUrges president to discuss allegedinterference in presidential electioninterference in presidential electionBy Marine StraussBloomberg News

BRUSSELS — Presi-dent Donald Trump shoulddiscuss Russian attemptsto influence the outcomeof the U.S. election inNovember in an effort tofill intelligence gaps, Sen.John McCain said Satur-day.

“I would very much liketo see the president addressthis issue including the is-sue we continue to wrestlewith that is the Russian in-terference in the last elec-tion,” McCain, R-Ariz., saidat a German Marshall Fundforum in Brussels. “Thereare a lot of answers that arerequired.”

FBI Director JamesComey told the House in-telligence committee thisweek that the bureau isprobing Russian efforts to

“interfere” in the Nov. 8election, as well as poten-tial ties between Trump’sassociates and Moscowduring the campaign. Thepresident’s first nationalsecurity adviser, MichaelFlynn, was fired for mak-ing misleading statementsabout contact with RussianAmbassador SergeyKislyak a few weeks beforethe inauguration.

McCain, who called fora select committee to in-vestigate the meddling,pointed out that the Rus-sians are trying to influ-ence the French election,which has its first round ofvoting next month. Thesenator also said thatMoscow was increasingaggression in Ukraine,which would need aid fromthe U.S.

“Putin has stepped uphis aggression in Ukraine,

Ukrainians are dying. andwe need to give themweapons with which to de-fend themselves,” McCainsaid.

He also highlighted theimportance of the U.S. in-creasing its cybersecurityand the threat posed byNorth Korea’s Kim JongUn.

“North Korean effortson acquiring weapons ismaybe the most immediatecrisis that we face,” saidMcCain, who advisedtelling China to control thecountry’s behavior. “Itisn’t in China’s interest tosee a nuclear weapons con-frontation that can put theworld on edge.”

“The aberrational behav-ior of this fat kid in Py-ongyang is not somethingthat we could find to be inany way rational or trust-worthy,” McCain said.

NATO aspirant Montenegro at crossroadsNATO aspirant Montenegro at crossroadsBy DUSAN STOJANOVICAssociated Press

AP photoAspiring NATO member Montenegro is hardly a formidable military force, theAspiring NATO member Montenegro is hardly a formidable military force, the

tiny country’s four military jets are up for sale and its two operational warshipstiny country’s four military jets are up for sale and its two operational warshipshardly ever leave their home port.hardly ever leave their home port.

BAR, Montenegro —Aspiring NATO memberMontenegro is hardly a for-midable military force —the tiny country’s four mili-tary jets are up for sale andits two operational war-ships hardly ever leavetheir home port.

With its 2,000-strongarmy, the scenic country —squeezed between toweringmountains and the AdriaticSea — would hardly boostthe West’s defense in anyconfrontation with Russia.

Nonetheless, Montenegrois in the middle of a row be-tween the West andMoscow over influence inthe Balkans. The outcome ofthat clash could determinewhich way the whole west-ern Balkan region is head-ing: toward the EuropeanUnion, NATO and integra-tion with the West, or backto Russia’s embrace.

“It is clear that the East-West tensions have left con-sequences on the politicaland security situation in thewestern Balkans,” formerPrime Minister MiloDjukanovic said in a recent

interview with The Associ-ated Press.

He said that in the face ofthe “destructive” Russian in-fluence in Montenegro, theWest should “in the shortestperiod of time take a moredetermined course in de-fense of the European sys-tem of values.”

Djukanovic’s pro-Westernstance made him the targetof an alleged election-daycoup attempt in Montene-gro in October. The Krem-lin’s secret service opera-tives allegedly planned tokill him, topple his govern-ment and replace it with apuppet regime. All that be-cause of Montenegro’sNATO bid whichDjukanovic had champi-oned, until he stepped downafter the election.

Montenegro had been afaithful ally of Russia. Butafter splitting with Serbiain a 2006 referendum, thenation of 620,000 peopletook a strong turn towardEuro-Atlantic integration.

Russia strongly opposesthe expansion of theWestern military alliance ina region it considers part ofits strategic sphere of inter-est. Wary of Russian influ-

ence in the still-volatile re-gion, NATO wants Mon-tenegro in the alliance.

Montenegro’s member-ship has been ratified by 25of the alliance’s 28 memberstates. U.S. senators stillhaven’t approved it, andthere are fears in Montene-gro and the region thatPresident Donald Trump’snew administration is too

lenient toward RussianPresident Vladimir Putin.

Last week, RepublicanSen. John McCain slammedhis party colleague, Ken-tucky Sen. Rand Paul, ac-cusing him of “working forVladimir Putin” after Paulblocked the passage of atreaty that would allowMontenegro to move for-ward with joining NATO.

In a letter to Senate Ma-jor i ty Leader MitchMcConnell, U.S. Secretaryof State Rex Tillerson said“it is strongly in the inter-est of the United Statesthat Montenegro’s member-ship in NATO be ratified.”The letter, dated March 7,was made available to theAP on Wednesday.

“With Montenegro’s acces-

sion, the Alliance will create acontiguous border along theAdriatic coast,” Tillersonsaid. “Since Montenegro bor-ders five other Balkan na-tions, including NATO AlliesCroatia and Albania, itsNATO membership will sup-port greater integration,democratic reform, trade, se-curity, and stability with all ofits neighbors.”

The Kremlin has deniedinvolvement in the allegedcoup plots.

Andrija Mandic, a leaderof Montenegro’s oppositionDemocratic Front coalition,said Montenegro shouldnever join NATO and shouldinstead maintain close tieswith its Slavic Orthodox“brothers” in Russia.

Analysts say behind allthe tensions lurk majorstrategic goals.

For Russia, it is to haveaccess to the deep-sea portsfor its warships deployed inthe Mediterranean and tomaintain its economic andpolitical interests; forNATO, it is to keep themighty Russian navy awayfrom the so-called “warmseas.” Montenegro is theonly Adriatic state that isnot yet a NATO member.

First census in 19 years in PakistanLos Angeles Times

Scotlandeyes 2nd voteDPA (TNS)

LONDON — ScottishFirst Minister Nicola Stur-geon has asked the devolvedparliament to approve herplans to hold a second refer-endum on Scotland’s inde-pendence from Britain.

Sturgeon said she believesa referendum is needed afterher efforts to seek a compro-mise over Britain’s exit fromthe European Union weremet with a “hard-line re-sponse” from Prime MinisterTheresa May’s Conservativegovernment.

May’s government said asecond independence refer-endum “would be divisiveand cause huge economicuncertainty at the worstpossible time.”

More than 60 percent ofvoters in Scotland opted tostay in the EU in the Brexitreferendum in June, while 52percent voted for Brexit acrossBritain and Northern Ireland.

U.S. presence tests Iran in GulfU.S. presence tests Iran in GulfBy JON GAMBRELLAssociated Press

ABOARD THE USSGEORGE H.W. BUSH —American sailors watched asthe first Revolutionary Guardvessels appeared on the hori-zon of the Strait of Hormuz,beginning a daylong face-offthat has become familiar toboth Iranian paramilitary andU.S. naval forces that passthrough the narrow mouth ofthe Persian Gulf.

But these routine, if tenseencounters may soon groweven more perilous.

President Donald Trumphas warned that Iranianforces will be blown out of the

water if they challenge U.S.naval vessels, while Americancommanders describe theGuard as increasingly behav-ing unprofessionally withrocket launches and provoca-tive actions. Iranian hard-lin-ers, still smarting over the nu-clear detente with the West,may see a military confronta-tion as a way to derail moder-ate President Hassan Rouhaniheading into the country’sMay presidential election.

What happens next couldhinge on the Strait of Hor-muz, through which a third ofall oil trade by sea passes.

“What reason were theyto be in an internationalcorridor, other than to ha-

rass us?” Rear Adm. Ken-neth Whitesell, commanderof Carrier Strike Group 2,said of the Iranian actions.“Was today the day theywere going to come outand potentially deploy ki-netic actions against us?”

Whitesell oversees thestrike group that has theUSS George H.W. Bush atits heart.

Its overall mission is pro-viding a base for airstrikesagainst the Islamic Stategroup. The ship’s contin-gent of F-18 fighter jets be-gan bombing the extrem-ists in February as the ves-sel transited through theMediterranean Sea.

But serving as a counter-balance to Iran and assur-ing America’s Gulf Arab al-lies in the region also re-mains vital, Whitesell said.While acknowledging thatTrump and Defense Secre-tary Jim Mattis have strongsuspicions about Iran, hesaid there hadn’t been anychange in his orders in howto deal with the IslamicRepublic.

“The political aspect ofthe United States has kindof been in our wake,” therear admiral said.

Threats, however, remain.After a Saudi naval vesselcame under attack from apurported “drone” boat off

the coast of war-torn Yemen,in the Bab al-Mandeb Straitin the Red Sea, U.S. vesselsin this strike group changedtheir routine to protect them-selves while passing, saidCapt. Will Pennington, thecommanding officer of theBush.

“Some of our escort shipsarrived in advance of usand provided security inthat Bab al-Mandeb and afew lagged a few days be-

hind so our coverage ofthat area was extended,”Pennington said. “Thatsame threat could existhere in the Strait of Hor-muz or any other strait.”

Small vessel attacks alsoinclude the October 2000boat-borne bombing by al-Qaida on the USS Cole,which killed 17 Americansailors while the ship wasrefueling in Yemen’s Adenharbor.

Chinese shoalquestioned by Philippines

MANILA, Philippines(AP) — The Philippines saidWednesday that it has askedChina to clarify its reportedplans to build an environ-mental monitoring station ona disputed shoal.

Acting Philippine ForeignSecretary Enrique Manalotold Filipino reporters in theThai capital Bangkok, wherePresident Rodrigo Duterte isvisiting, that his departmentasked for clarification on thereported planned construc-tion on Scarborough Shoal.

The shoal, off the north-western Philippines, is at theheart of the territorial dis-putes between the countries.

“I think the President hasbeen very clear -- we want tohave a peaceful, diplomaticsettlement of disputes but wewill not fail to protect our na-tional interests if necessary,”Manalo said.

Asked if a diplomaticprotest will be filed, he saidManila will wait for China’sreply.

But Manalo said he con-sidered it a good sign thatChina was interested in con-cluding a framework for acode of conduct with 10Southeast Asian nations that

aims to peacefully managedisputes in the South ChinaSea. He said there could beprogress on the frameworkwhen China hosts a meetingin May.

Any construction wouldre-ignite concerns over Bei-jing’s increasingly assertiveactions to cement its claimsin the area, and would be indefiance of last year’s rul-ing by an arbitration tri-bunal in The Hague that in-validated China’s territorialclaims in the South ChinaSea on historical grounds.

Chinese governmentships took control of Scar-borough in 2012 after atense standoff with Philip-pine vessels. China thenblocked Filipinos from fish-ing in the shoal, which hasa vast, coral-encircled la-goon that serves as a natu-ral storm shelter for Asianfishermen.

The Philippines broughtits disputes with China to in-ternational arbitration thefollowing year, but China ig-nored the complaint and thetribunal’s ruling, whichfound Beijing to have vio-lated the rights of Filipinosto fish at Scarborough.

“There’s actually a cul-vert and drainage swalethat runs across this area,”he told zoning board mem-bers, indicating the northand east sides of the site.

According to the zoningcode, the maximum build-ing height in that locationis 34 feet, and the proposalwas to build a 45-foot, 4-inch tall building.

“With the constraints onthe size of the propertyand topography, we’re go-ing to need a smaller foot-print,” he told the board,explaining that a three-story building would needmore space that the site

doesn’t have.Board member Drew

Copley said he does notbelieve there is a practicaldifficulty in developing thesite. “I think the issue hereis, we’re not going tochange the zoning codecode based on the decisionof a national chain andtheir marketing agenda,”he said.

Weber said the mainreason for the variance isthat an 83-room hotel —which is Holiday Inn’s tar-get room count — wouldnot fit on the parcel, giventhe topography and wet-lands on the north and eastside of the site. “About 20percent of that property isnot usable,” he said.

He said he’s not surewhether the plan will beamended resubmitted in an-other form.

Because it would be lo-cated near the Walmart, a40-foot- tall building about200,000-square- feet insize, it wouldn’t appear outof character in the com-mercial development, hesaid.

“If you put the buildingwhere it is, by massing, it’sby Walmart,” he said. “It’s40 feet tall. If we mass acouple of large buildingsaround Walmart, Walmartwon’t look so big.”

Several residents fromSeminole Trail and Kick-

apoo Pass, which are lo-cated immediately to thenorth of the Defer prop-erty, spoke in oppositionto the plan, which theysaid would create morelight pollution, floodingand trash in their back-yards.

“I’m totally livid over it,”said Kickapoo Pass resi-dent Robert Stance. “Wecan see lights from Wal-mart so much it’s like day-light in our bedroom atmidnight. It causes a hard-ship on is; it’s broughtdown our property values.”

He also said he’s worriedabout his privacy and that

of his neighbors if a four-story hotel is built. “Iwould like to be able toknow with relative cer-tainty that people in a hotelcannot look into windowswith binoculars,” he said.

Carol Smith of SeminoleTrail said she has experi-enced flooding, trash in herbackyard and a reduction inprivacy since the Walmartwas built.

“We pick up theirgarbage on a daily basis,”she said. “I’m all for the de-velopment of Streetsboro,but I think we need to do itin a way respectful to thosewho have lived here all

their lives.”Mark Defer, trustee of

the Defer Limited Partner-ship, said it sounded asthough some of the resi-dents didn't understand theproposed location of the ho-tel.

“It’s going to be over aquarter-mile away from anyresidents,” he said. “It’s go-ing to be up near the front(of the property). Thoseconcerns about privacy andall that really don’t apply.”

Indians ink Ramirez to extensionBy TOM WITHERS

Associated Press

C L E V E L A N D — J o s e Ramirez’s breakout season was enough to convince the Cleve-land Indians he’s worth a long-term investment.

The versatile Ramirez, who helped the Indians get to their first World Series since 1997 last year, has agreed to a contract ex-tension with the club. Ramirez will sign the contract after tak-ing a physical, said a person with knowledge of the negotiations who spoke Friday to The As-sociated Press on condition of

anonymity be-cause the deal can’t be final-ized until the medical exam-

inations are completed. It could be several more days before the extension is announced.

Terms were not yet available.Ramirez was instrumental in

the Indians winning the AL Cen-tral title and first pennant in nearly 20 years. The 24-year-old batted .312 with 11 homers and 76 RBI, and he was at his best in the clutch, batting .355 with run-ners in scoring position.

He played third base (91 starts), left field (47), second (3) and shortstop (3) and bat-ted in every spot in manager Terry Francona’s lineup. Most importantly, Ramirez picked up the offensive slack when former All-Star Michael Brantley was sidelined for all but 11 games with a shoulder injury.

The Indians view Ramirez as one of their core players and have been in discussions with his agents during training camp as they wanted to lock him into a long-term deal despite him be-ing under their financial control

for several more years.Cleveland is also interested in

signing All-Star shortstop Fran-cisco Lindor and catcher Robert Perez to extensions.

Ramirez finished second in the AL with 46 doubles and had 22 steals.

With second baseman Ja-son Kipnis expected to start this season on the disabled list with right shoulder inflamma-tion, Ramirez could shift to the right side of the infield to start the year. It’s that flexibility that has made Ramirez invaluable to Francona.

LET’S TRY THIS AGAINMyles Garrett at No. 1 could allow Browns to findredemption for Brown, Warren selectionsBy STEVE DOERSCHUK

The Canton Repository

Assuming it’s Myles Garrett ...This will be the third time since the Browns came

back that the NFL Draft’s first defensive player was picked by Cleveland.

The previous two were Courtney Brown in 2000 and Gerard Warren in 2001. Neither did the fran-chise much good.

Garrett is more of a consensus pick than either Brown or Warren.

Analysts were split as to whether “The Quiet Storm” (Brown) or his Penn State teammate LaVar Arrington should be the No. 1 pick in 2000.

The Browns’ draft room wasn’t split over picking “Big Money” (Warren). The personnel department was against it.

WIZARDS 127, CAVALIERS 115

Wall races Wizards past CavsBy TOM WITHERS

Associated Press

CLEVELAND — John Wall scored 37 points, Bradley Beal added 27 and the Washington Wizards began a challenging road trip by beating LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers 127-115 on Saturday night.

Wall scored 18 in the first quar-ter, when the Wizards shot 82 per-cent, and Washington held on down the s t re t ch to avenge an over-time loss to the NBA champions last month.

J a m e s , w h o b r i e f l y w o r e goggles to protect an eye injury sustained Friday night , scored 24 and added 11 rebounds and eight assists. Kyrie Irving add-ed 23 points and Kevin Love 17 for Cleveland, playing at home for the only time in a seven-game stretch.

Washington’s victory cut Cleve-land’s lead in the Eastern Confer-ence to a half-game over idle Bos-ton.

But even more importantly, the Wizards, who are 29-10 since Jan. 6 and within 2½ games of first, showed they could put a complete game to-gether against the Cavs — a possible playoff opponent. They lost to Cleve-land 140-135 on Feb. 6, when James banked in an impossible 3-pointer to force OT.

MONDAYCleveland

at San Antonio8 p.m., FSO

COLUMBUS — Led by junior forward Jordan Burge, Cleveland Heights Lutheran East won the Division IV state title on Saturday with a 43-38 victory over Colum-bus Wellington.

Burge had 13 points, four steals and four rebounds for the Falcons, after scoring 16 in the semifinals.

“We decided to come together as a team, and followed the game plan the coaches set up for us and applied the pressure and came up with the victory,” Burge said.

After defeating Lima Perry in the state semifinal, Wellington was looking for its first state title. How-ever, turnovers and poor shoot-ing quickly dashed those dreams.

“We just weren’t in our rhythm, and we were out of our comfort zone like coach said,” said senior forward Dustin Harder.

The Jaguars were led by Hard-er with 14 points and 11 rebounds. Junior guard Solomon Pierre-Lou-is and junior forward Noah Berry each had seven points. The biggest downfall for Wellington was turn-overs, giving the ball away 26 times.

“We found out struggles ver-sus their pressure,” said Welling-ton coach Artie Taylor. “And it was something that no matter what we did — press break, adjust-ments, sets and half court — it just really threw our rhythm off.”

COLUMBUS — Senior guard Jayvon Graves didn’t want Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary to settle for almost again.

Graves poured in 25 points, grabbed six rebounds and had seven steals Saturday for the Irish in a 45-30 victory over Wauseon in the Division II final on Saturday.

St. Vincent-St. Mary won its re-cord-tying seventh boys state championship and its first since 2011, but Graves wasn’t about to let the Irish fall short after losing in last year’s title game.

“It means a lot after coming down here two other years and fi-nally getting it done,” Graves said. “The seniors, they stepped up big.”

The Irish swarmed Wauseon with tough defense and double-teams, forcing 23 Indians’ turn-overs that led to a multitude of transition points.

St. Vincent-St. Mary struggled to knock down shots early and missed its first seven, but finished the game shooting 40 percent from the field.

The school’s seven titles tied it with Middletown for most in boys basketball in Ohio.

“For the school to have tied the record for the most state championships and to be a part of that, these guys . they under-stand they’re a part of something that’s bigger than themselves,” said coach Dru Joyce.

ROGER BACON 52

COLUMBUS — Cleveland Vil-la Angela St. Joseph defeated Roger Bacon, 54-52 in the Ohio high school Division III boys basketball state championship game on Saturday at Value City Arena for the school’s record-ty-ing seventh state title.

Jerry Higgins scored 16 points, Alonzo Gaffney had 12 points and 10 rebounds and William Butler added 10 points.

Alec Pfriem had a double-double for the runner-up with 12 points and 11 rebounds. Jus-tin Johnson and James John-son added 14 and 13 points, respectively.

Leading by two with 1:07 to go, Higgins got behind the defense on an inbounds pass and scored a layup to make it a two-possession game. The Vi-kings made seven free throws in the final minute and led by as much as 10 before Bacon hit three 3-pointers in the final 31 seconds, but fell one posses-sion short.

The Vikings scored 19 points fewer than their semifinal game against Fairland. VASJ head coach Babe Kwasniak said Rog-er Bacon was the best defensive team they had played all year.

“You include the national teams we’ve played, we’ve nev-er been guarded like that,” he said.

DIVISION I STATE FINAL

MASSILLON JACKSON 39,

CINCINNATI MOELLER 38

COLUMBUS — Massillon Jackson’s Kyle Young made one free throw with 3.6 seconds left to lift the Polar Bears over Cin-cinnati Archbishop Moeller to a 39-38 Division I state cham-pionship victory on Saturday night in Columbus at Value City Arena.

Young, one of Jackson’s primary scorers and leading standouts, was only 1-of-10 from the field with five points, but grabbed 10 rebounds.

Despite h is s t ruggles, though, he hit the game-win-ning shot that lifted Jackson to the state title.

Logan Hill led the Polar Bears (27-2) with 12 points and Jaret Pallotta added 11.

Keegan McDowell and Miles McBride had 15 and 14 points, respectively, for the Crusad-ers (27-1) in their first loss of the season.

With 2.5 seconds on the clock, McDowell caught the ball past half court and attempted a shot from 35 feet that missed left and caromed off the back-board without hitting any rim.

Jackson never trailed after the first quarter. It is the Polar Bears’ first state-title win since 2010 — a team coached by for-mer Rootstown boys basketball coach Mike Fuline, who now coaches at Mount Union.

Coach Dave Wrobel: “The future is bright for Brett. He wants to succeed so bad and is driven to reach his goals that he will put in the necessary time to be successful, especial-ly in the off-season.”

BRETT SZUHAYCrestwood, freshman, 106 pounds

by compiling the most wins (176) and most pins (124).Coach Brian Munger: “Will is going to be hard to replace.

Golfers enjoy sudden rise in temperaturesBy SUSAN JENIOR

Correspondent

How many of you played golf this week-end or even during the past week.

Golf courses in the greater Portage County area are ignoring some of the ca-sual water and left-over snow in the sand traps to give golfers the opportunity to tune up their game as spring comes to Northeast Ohio.

Thanks to a relatively mild winter, we played golf sporadically over the past four months without ever traveling south.

Be sure and give your favorite golf course a call to find out if you can enjoy some early practice before the league and tournament season begins.

Monter celebrates another big weekBy SUSAN JENIOR

Correspondent

In the Mike Tassone’s Gals League on Wednesday at Bill White’s Twin Star Lanes, Terry Adolph, league secretary, offered that it was the Becky Monter show for the sec-ond week in a row.

This week, Monter started her three-game set with a 256, added a 212 and then, saving the best for last, bowled a 279 game that was 69 pins over her 210 average.

Her 747 was 117 pins over her series average.

There were actually two 700 series in the league for the week.

Kelly Stebner, carrying a 204 average, bowled games of 243, 227 and 247 on her way to a 717 series that was 105 pins over her series average.

It can be difficult to crack the leader-board in this league, with Adolph roll-ing a 255-632, Cindy Ables rolling a 216 game, Kathy Wolfe a 213 and Cheryl Gol-ubski hitting 200.

Add Carolym Gump, who improved her 122 average by 91 pins with her 457 series, and Phyllis Davis, who was also among the most improved thanks to a 521 series that is 83 pins over her 146 average.

FOUR WEEKS TO GOThe Morrow’s have 67 points in the

league as of the 12th week to lead by three points over Jim Jeffreys and Larry Stout.

Jerry Seeman rolled a 723 series with a high game of 248 for the most-improved award. His series was 141 pins over his average.

League leader, Morrow, bowled a 235-666 and Dick Schoppelrey added a 233 game.

For the women, Corky Farquhar, league secretary, also led the bowlers with her 213-599 effort. Gloria Paradis added a 205-521 to the leaderboard and league leader Shirley Morrow rolled a 198-528.

DANIELS AT TOP OF MATCH PLAYCorey Daniels fell one-pin shy of a per-

fect game, bowling a 299 in the Match Play League at Twin Star.

Daniels finished with a 901 four-game set.

Kevin Robenstine grabbed high series honors, rolling a 909 with a 246 game.

Sandwiched between the two was Bry-an Berry (248-902).

KSU FACULTY STAFFThe KSU Faculty Staff League only has

one competitive night remaining to fin-ish the league until the season-sending singles-doubles tournament on April 3 that will also feature the league champi-onship roll-off.

This week, Hal Lehman bowled the high game and series thanks to his 243 that led to a 622 series. Bob Minno bowled a 583 to be included on the leaderboard.

Suzanne Cherry tossed a 202-524, with Jean Pollock adding a 200 and Michele Embry putting three games together for a 506 series.

Derek Frautschy bowled a 297 game that was 55 pins over his average and a 547 series that improved his usual series by 121 pins.

The Ex-Athletes have a six-point lead over the Dream Team and a seven point lead over the Golden Flushes leading into the final week of the league.

LEAGUE FINAL FOR LOCAL 2The Local 2 League at Spins Lanes held

their season-ending two-week tournament to conclude bowling for the season.

Rick Hamilton of Randolph, league sec-retary, was happy to report he bowled well enough to finish in fifth place in the sec-ond week and earn a little bit of money, bowling a 225-619. Hamilton moved from 17th place in the first week to fifth place in the tournament final.

Other high games and series included: Denny Speirs’ 256-638, Kirby Long’s 224-638, Adam Hale’s 249, Glenn Huryn’s 225 and Don Condos’ 213.

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL: NCAA TOURNAMENT ROUNDUP

Gonzaga routs Xavier toGonzaga routs Xavier toreach rst-ever Final Fourreach rst-ever Final FourAssociated Press

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Thecriticism dogged Gonzagawherever it went, no mat-ter how much it won.

The Zags run up theirrecord by beating up onteams in a weak confer-ence, then always seemedto come up short as the cal-endar went deep intoMarch. Few outside ofSpokane believed the pro-gram Mark Few helpedbuild from scratch be-longed in the national pow-erhouse conversation.

Overrated no more, Gon-zaga is finally headed to theFinal Four.

The Zags took the pres-sure of history head onwith a performance worthyof their No. 1 seed, rollingto a dominating 83-59 winover Xavier in the West Re-gion final on Saturday thatshould silence those critics.

“Just an incredible feel-ing of elation and satisfac-tion,” Few said. “It’s been along, hard journey to getthis program here.”

Few and the Zags havewon the West Coast Con-ference Tournament 16times, been regulars in theNCAA Tournament since1999, reached the Sweet 16eight times.

The Final Four was theonly missing piece to theirresume.

T h e Z a g s ( 3 6 - 1 )claimed their spot in Ari-zona and history with asuperb all-around game,showing off their usual of-fensive efficiency whileflexing the smotheringtype of defense that hadpreviously been the chinkin their armor.

Gonzaga made 12-of-24shots from 3-point range af-ter struggling the firstthree NCAA Tournamentgames. The Zags were No.1 in defensive efficiencyduring the regular seasonand shut down the under-dog and 11th-seeded Mus-

keteers (24-14) to becomethe first WCC team toreach the Final Four in 60years.

Nigel Wil l iams-Gossscored 23 points while or-chestrating Gonzaga’s effi-cient offense after strug-gling against West Vir-ginia. Johnathan Williamsadded 19 points and centerPrzemek Karnowski, whowas still recovering fromback surgery a year ago,created open perimeterlooks with his deft passingout of the post.

Now the Zags are headedto the desert, where they’llplay the winner betweenSouth Carolina and Floridain next week’s Final Four.

“The Final Four doesn’tvalidate or discredit a sea-son. It’s not an end-all, be-all,” Williams said. “Gon-zaga has been a great pro-gram and we’re just happyto keep carrying the torch.”

The Musketeers broughttheir turn-the-page jar ofashes to the NCAA Tour-nament , where theyburned through a string ofupsets to reach their thirdElite Eight and first since2008.

Their bid for the pro-gram’s first Final Four raninto a buzz saw.

Xavier played well offen-sively early to hang withthe Zags, giving super fanBill Murray and the rest oftheir supporters a glimmerof hope. Once Gonzaga gotrolling, the Musketeers hadno answer.

“They’re really good.Sometimes you just lose toa better team,” Xaviercoach Chris Mack said.“They’ve proven it all yearlong.”

The Zags struggled tofind an offensive rhythmagainst West Virginia inthe regional semifinals—who doesn’t? — but had itflowing against Xavier.

After hitting 29 percentof its 3-point shots its firstthree NCAA games, Gon-

zaga found the rangeagainst Xavier, hitting 8 of13 from the arc in the firsthalf, mostly against theMusketeers’ zone or onkick-outs from Karnowski .

Xavier had a good offen-sive start, only to hit a dryspell as Gonzaga stretchedto lead to 49-39 by half-time.

Halftime did little toslow the Zags, who pushedthe lead to 59-42 on 3-pointers by Williams-Gossand Jordan Mathews. Gon-zaga kept the machinerolling in the second half,continuing to make shotswhile its defense pre-vented the Musketeersfrom making any kind ofrun.

“They were just lockedin,” said Xavier’s TrevonBluiett, who had 10 points.“They were a disciplinetype of team and we justdidn ’ t execute wel lenough.”Oregon 74,Kansas 60

KANSAS CITY, Mo. —Tyler Dorsey poured in 27points , Di l lon Brooksadded 17 and plucky Ore-gon ended Kansas’ rompthrough the NCAA Tourna-ment with a 74-60 victorySaturday night that gavethe Ducks their first FinalFour trip in nearly 80years.

Dylan Ennis added 12points for the Ducks (33-5),who took the lead with 16minutes left in the first halfand never trailed again, giv-ing coach Dana Altman hisfirst trip to the nationalsemifinals.

They’ll face the winner ofSunday’s game betweenNorth Carolina and Ken-tucky in Glendale, Arizona.

Player of the year front-runner Frank Mason IIIhad 21 points in his finalgame for the Jayhawks(31-5), who had rolled tothe Elite Eight by an aver-age margin of 30 points.

But their dream seasonended with a thud just 40minutes from campus on anight where very littlewent right.

Star freshman Josh Jack-son was mired in early foultrouble. Sharpshootingguard Devonte Grahamnever got on track. And theswagger that the Big 12champs showed in humiliat-ing Purdue in the Sweet 16quickly became a distantmemory on a night that be-longed to the Pac-12 cham-pions.

Altman had never beento the Final Four in 13 ap-pearances in the NCAATournament. And the lasttime the Ducks were on thebig stage, it was 1939 andthe Tall Firs took home thetitle.

Jordan Bell added 11points, 13 rebounds andeight blocks for Oregon,while Jackson was held to10 points for the Jayhawksin what was almost cer-tainly his final collegegame.

The bus carrying theDucks to Sprint Center onSaturday passed right bythe Power and LightDistr ict in downtownKansas City, where thou-sands of Jayhawk fans wererallying hours before thetipoff.

In other words, theyknew they were facing a defacto road game.

But the torrid shooting ofBrooks, Ennis and Dorseyquickly riled up the smallsection of Oregon fans whiledeflating the rest of sold-outSprint Center. And foultrouble that sent Jackson tothe bench for much of thefirst half helped allow theDucks carve out a comfort-able lead.

Dorsey finished the halfwith back-to-back 3s, in-cluding a deep bank shot atthe buzzer, as the Duckspranced to their lockerroom relishing in a 44-33advantage.

“This doesn’t happenvery often especial lyagainst a really good de-fensive team like the Bos-ton Celtics,” Booker said.“It’s a zone. It’s kind ofhard to explain. I’ve beenin those zones before, butnever to this extent.”

Booker scored 51 afterhalftime, including 28 inthe nal period as histeammates fed him al-most every time down theoor.

Coach Earl Watson evenused a pair of timeouts inthe closing minutes to gethim extra touches. AsBooker ’s point totalclimbed, he even began toget cheers from some Bos-ton fans. The entire display— in particular Phoenix’sattempts to prolong thegame — tweaked someCeltics players.

“It was weird what theywere doing,” Thomas said.“I’ve never seen anythinglike that. It is what it is. ...But I mean it was obviouswhat they were trying todo. They were trying to gethim the most points possi-ble. Hats o to him. Heplayed a hell of a game.”

Whatever the percep-tion of others, Watsonmade no apologies.

“I’m not coming into anyarena just happy to bethere, trying to be liked. Idon’t care about beingliked. I really don’t care to behonest with you,” he said.“We’re trying to build some-thing with this younggroup. If people don’t like uswhile we build it, so what?Do something about it.”

Chamberlain had six70-point games and his

62 points on Jan. 14,1962, had been the mostin Boston.

▉ COLLEGEIndiana hiresArchie Miller asnew coach

The move comes lessthan 24 hours after UCLAcoach Steve Alford saidhe wouldn’t take the joband nine days after TomCrean was red after nineseasons.

Miller has spent the lastsix seasons as the coach atDayton. He led the Flyersto a 139-63 record, the lasttwo Atlantic 10 regular-season titles and NCAATournament appearanceseach of the past four sea-sons. Before going to Day-ton, he was an assistant atArizona, Ohio State, NorthCarol ina State andWestern Kentucky.

The school says it plansto introduce Miller at anews conference Monday.Lonzo Ball: Oneand done at UCLA,headed to NBA

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — StarUCLA freshman Lonzo Ballsays he’s one and done atUCLA and headed to thenext level.

The guard said Fridaynight after his team lost toKentucky in the Sweet 16that he is moving on fromthe college game.

“That was my nalgame for UCLA. I appreci-ate all the fans and all thesupport,” Ball said in theUCLA locker room.

Ball was widely expectedto declare for the NBA draftafter this season. His father,LaVar Ball, has been espe-cially vocal, declaring thatthe eldest of three hoops-playing brothers is betterthan NBA MVP Steph Curry.

Ball said he felt bad thathe couldn’t carry histeam’s seniors to anotherwin in the NCAA Tourna-ment. He says UCLA sim-ply lost to a good team.

Ball was outdueled byKentucky’s De’Aaron Foxon Friday night, scoringjust 10 points on 4-of-10shooting. Fox scored 39for the Wildcats.

UCLA coach Steve Al-ford indicated he wasn’tsurprised by Ball’s deci-sion, even saying he as-sumed it was the end ofthe freshman’s college ca-reer.

“I probably don’t like toassume anything, but he’spretty good,” Alford said.

He noted that there is adierent culture in col-lege basketball than in hisplaying days at Indiana.

“Guys can make a goodliving sooner than what itwas two decades ago, threedecades ago,” Alford said.“We’ve had our share ofsome very good one-and-dones.”Panel questions jobfor UConnfootball coach’s son

Indians pitcher Carlos Carrasco looked goodIndians pitcher Carlos Carrasco looked goodin his rst game since dealing with elbow swellingin his rst game since dealing with elbow swelling

MESA, Ariz. — CarlosCarrasco took a step Fridaytoward being ready for hisfirst regular season start.

Now the Cleveland Indi-ans right-hander just has tofigure out when that mightbe.

Carrasco tossed threestrong innings in a springtraining game against theChicago Cubs, his first startsince March 13, when hefelt elbow discomfort whilebeing rocked for eight runsand eight hits, includingthree home runs, against the

Chicago White Sox.A scan revealed only mi-

nor inflammation, and Car-rasco was able to play catchand throw a bullpen ses-sion. He faced nine battersin a minor league gameMonday.

Carrasco hit 92 mph withhis fastball in the second in-ning Friday and allowed a hitwith two walks and twostrikeouts. His spring ERAdropped from 15.75 to 11.45.

He’s scheduled for onemore spring training startbefore the season opens,and although Carrasco saidhis arm is ready for earlyApril, manager Terry Fran-

cona was cautious.“We can’t go from three

to eight,” Francona said.“The next outing is goingto probably be four .There’s still got to be a pro-gression. So we’re going tohave to figure that out.”

Francona had consideredCarrasco as the No. 2starter in the Indians’ rota-tion to start the season, be-hind Corey Kluber. ButCarrasco, who was 11-8with a 3.32 ERA in a 2016season shortened by a bro-ken bone in his hand, hasn’tpitched more than three in-nings in any of his fivestarts this spring.

FONTANA, Calif. —Kyle Larson hopes hisNASCAR Xfinity race vic-tory will catapult him to aweekend sweep at Fontana.

The way this season isgoing for the overall Cupseries points leader, it’stough to argue against it.

Larson held off JoeyLogano on the final lap towin another Xfinity racedominated by Cup driverson Saturday.

Larson thrived out of a laterestart with smart moves anda clever lane choice on Fon-tana’s five-wide asphalt. Thenative Californian won theXfinity race at Fontana for thesecond time in his ChipGanassi Racing Chevrolet.

“It was a lot of fun withJoey there late,” Larson said.“I hope it gives us some goodmomentum. We’ll start fromthe pole and hopefully behere again (Sunday).”

Kyle Busch f inishedthird. Erik Jones wasfourth, and rookie WilliamByron came in fifth.

Larson earned his sixthcareer Xfinity victory whenhe kept Logano behind himoff a late restart, winningby just over a car length.

Larson is also on the polefor Sunday’s race. He hasfinished second in threeconsecutive Cup races, pro-pelling him into the overalllead without a victory.

Cup regulars Larson,Busch and Logano domi-nated on a cloudy day atFontana. Busch led aftereach of the first two stages,but he brushed the wall inhis Joe Gibbs Racing Toy-

ota with 28 laps to go.Larson overcame a speed-

ing penalty on pit road thatsent him to the back of thefield midway through the race.

Logano twice ralliedback from far behind andled five times for 70 laps.

He got an early speedingpenalty on pit road. His carlater fell off the jack during along pit stop, but he passed20 cars in less than two lapsto get right back in it.

Despite the technicalglitches, Logano had a blast.

“I vote for two races atAuto Club Speedway, I’ll bethe first to say that,”Logano said. “What anawesome race track. It’s somuch fun. You can run any-where you want. The rac-ing is great. There is tirefalloff. There are bumps.There’s everything here.It’s the perfect race track. Iwish we came here more of-

ten, because it’s the bestrace track we go to.”

Paul Menard’s car caughtfire after hitting the wall withabout 55 laps to go, slowingthe race. About 12 laps later,Cole Custer ended up with awrecked car for the secondstraight week when he hitthe wall on Turn 1.

Custer blamed his wreckon “a clown move” by RyanSieg, who apparently gotclipped by Custer on a sidedraft earlier. Custer andAustin Dillon got into aprolonged scrape last weekat Phoenix, with Dillon run-ning Custer into a wall un-der caution to retaliate.

“Last week it was all myfault, and I’ll take that allon me,” Custer said. “To-day it was just a clown. Idon’t understand what hisreasoning was to pay usback that much, but that’sjust a joke.”

Mickelson, Johnson move on at Match PlayMickelson, Johnson move on at Match Play

By DOUG FERGUSONAssociated Press

Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson ease into Match Play quarternals in TexasPhil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson ease into Match Play quarternals in Texas

AUSTIN, Texas — PhilMickelson and Dustin John-son eased into the quarter-finals of the Dell Technolo-gies Match Play with afourth straight round inwhich neither trailed.

Mickelson halved his

opening hole with an 18-foot par putt, took the leadwith an 18-foot birdie andwas never seriously chal-lenged in a 4-and-3 victoryover Bay Hill winner MarcLeishman of Australia.

Mickelson was in the quar-terfinals for the first timesince 2004, when he lost toDavis Love III at La Costa.

Johnson was as dominantas ever as he moved closerto a shot at his third con-secutive PGA Tour victory.In an unprecedented feat in19 years of this tourna-ment, Johnson now has ledafter each of the 60 holeshe has played in fourrounds. He won the open-ing hole again Saturday

morning against Zach John-son, and then put him awayby winning the last twoholes on the front nine tobuild a 4-up lead. Theworld’s No. 1 player fin-ished off the match withtwo more birdies for a 5-and-4 victory.

Johnson next faced AlexNoren, who at No. 8 was

the only other top-10 seedremaining at Austin Coun-try Club. Mickelson playedBill Haas, who survived asix-hole playoff to advanceout of group play, thenwent 18 holes to beat KevinNa on Saturday morning inthe fourth round.

Noren defeated BrooksKoepka, 3-and-1.

The championship matchisn’t until Sunday after-noon, though some prizescould be handed out at thequarterfinals to Ross Fisherand Hideto Tanihara. Nei-ther is in The Masters, andFisher might have doneenough with his 4-and-3victory over Bubba Watsonin the fourth round.

Healthy Smith, Wilson chase NFL dreamsHealthy Smith, Wilson chase NFL dreamsBy BILL RABINOWITZThe Columbus Dispatch

Corey Smith and DontreWilson had injury-marredOhio State careers thatonly scratched the surfaceof their ability.

But they are healthynow, and that’s why Thurs-day’s Ohio State pro daywas so crucial for them.

All 32 NFL teams had rep-resentatives at the WoodyHayes Athletic Center. NewEngland’s Bill Belichick andCincinnati’s Marvin Lewiswere among the nine headcoaches. Seven general man-agers came.

For Smith and Wilson,pro day was their bestchance to impress NFLteams. They were notamong the eight Ohio Stateplayers invited to the NFLcombine in Indianapolislast month.

“This was all I had, sothis was the most impor-tant thing,” Smith said.

Smith came to OhioState from junior college

and quickly earned ravesfor his raw talent. He ex-celled as a special-teamsgunner, particularly duringthe Buckeyes’ 2014 titlerun, but showed onlyflashes as a receiver. Hemissed most of 2015 afterbreaking a leg against Indi-ana. His 2016 season wasmostly ruined by a frac-tured arm suffered in aSeptember practice.

But his faith in his abilityhas not wavered.

“Honestly, I just feel likemy talent and my skill set isanywhere from a first- orsecond-round type of tal-ent,” Smith said. “The teamthat drafts me or picks meup is basically going tohave a steal.”

Wilson, a highly re-cruited hybrid, fractured afoot against Michigan Statein 2014 and the effects lin-gered for the rest of hisOSU career. Only now, hesaid, is it fully healed.

let it get me down.”A source said that in the

40-yard dash Thursday,Wilson was timed between4.55 and 4.59 seconds andSmith at 4.59 to 4.65.

Both have earned de-grees, but they are deter-mined to make it in theNFL.

“I know I’ve got the tal-ent to do it,” Smith said. “Ijust have to stay healthy.”

Cardale Jones, now withBuffalo, was one of severalformer Buckeyes whowatched pro day. He be-lieves both Wilson andSmith can make it.

“You have to be a differ-ent kind of athlete and guyto make it through four tofive years here,” Jones said.“The way they competedwhen they were injury-freeis the type of thing you cansee out of guys in the NFL.

OHIO STATE WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Ohio State women haveOhio State women haveways to go to become eliteways to go to become eliteBy ROB OLLERThe Columbus Dispatch

LEXINGTON, Ky. —Ohio State cannot compareto Connecticut, winners of109 consecutive games, butthe Buckeyes don’t need tocompare to the Huskies.Plenty of room remains atthe table for programs look-ing to become somethingakin to UConn light —teams that consistentlyrank among the top five inthe nation.

Ohio State could be oneof those. One could make astrong argument that theBuckeyes should be one ofthose. Ohio is a rich re-cruiting state. The schooloffers first-rate facilities.And compared to the men’sgame, where basketball at a“football school” often feelslike an afterthought thatproves detrimental to suc-cess at the highest level,the women’s game sharesno similar stigma.

But then you see OhioState get throttled by NotreDame in the Sweet 16 atRupp Arena on Fridaynight and it becomes clearthat the Buckeyes still havea lot of work to do. A lot.

The Fighting Irish, a No.1 seed that finished the reg-ular season ranked No. 2behind UConn in the Asso-ciated Press poll, showedthe Buckeyes — by way ofa 99-76 beatdown — thatwanting to be one of thebest teams in the country issignificantly different thanactually being one of thebest.

Back up a minute. It was

supposed to be differentthis season for the Buck-eyes. They said so them-selves. The team was moremature. The 16-point lossto Tennessee in last year’sSweet 16 was a meremuddy memory.

A more complete pro-gram does not guaranteegreater success, but every-thing pointed to Ohio Stategiving Notre Dame a game,especially since the Irishwere without BriannaTurner, their leading scorerand rebounder who suf-fered a season-ending kneeinjury in a second-roundwin against Purdue.

Maybe Notre Dame wastoo tough to handle withTurner, but without her?The Buckeyes stood morethan a slim chance to pullthe upset.

It was close for a while.Ohio State trailed by eightpoints at halftime despiteNotre Dame making 13shots in a row over a 10-minute stretch of the firstand second quarters. TheBuckeyes cut the deficit tofour with 7:23 left in thethird quarter.

Then Notre Dame NotreDamed. And Ohio StateOhio Stated, which is to saythe Irish showed they canplay both offense and de-fense, while the Buckeyesopted to play just offense.

I asked a longtime OSUinsider if the Buckeyes canever enter the rarified air ofteams like Notre Dame,Baylor and Stanford.

“If they play defense,”was the answer. “NotreDame scored 99 points and

still played defense.”It will require more than

just defense to join theranks of the NCAA Tourna-ment rich and famous. TheBuckeyes need to beginwinning these types ofgames. They have not ad-vanced to the Elite Eightsince 1993, when theyreached the championshipgame.

“As we aspire to con-tinue to grow the program(the way Notre Dameplayed) is what we want tolook like in a game likethis,” Ohio State coachKevin McGuff said. “I toldthe team afterwards, whenI was an assistant at NotreDame we lost in the Sweet16 and lost in the Sweet 16,then won a national cham-pionship. A lot of this isstick to it, keep fightingand grinding and makesure we get better. Andthat stuff takes time.”

McGuff offered that “It’s(a challenge) jumping intothat elite group at the top.Notre Dame, Baylor andUConn have been doing itfor a long time. And they’renot going anywhere.”

Fine. But Ohio State canget closer to where thoseprograms reside. This isn’tmen’s basketball, where thebest programs have beenbuilt over years, making itdifficult for others to breakthrough.

“We have to continue toevolve,” McGuff said. “Cul-turally, we’ve taken somesteps, but we’re not wherewe want to be.”

It would be nice if evolu-tion picked up the pace.

Recharge for next yearRecharge for next yearbegins with Mitchell’s decisionbegins with Mitchell’s decisionBy ANDREW ERICKSONThe Columbus Dispatch

LEXINGTON, Ky. —Ohio State women’s bas-ketball left Rupp Arena onFriday night after a 23-point loss to Notre Damein the Sweet 16 knowing itwon’t need to rebuild.

A recharge of the batter-ies, however, might be inorder.

The Buckeyes (28-7)ripped through the BigTen season to the tune of a15-1 record and a share ofthe regular-season title, de-feating then-No. 2 Mary-land to get there. They ad-vanced to the secondweekend of the NCAATournament for the sec-ond straight season andregularly outlasted teamswith the best depth OhioState has had in years.

Notre Dame is one ofthe best teams in the na-tion, to be sure, but this isan Ohio State team thatbegan the season withdeep-tournament goals andexpectations. The Buck-eyes ended the season in asimilar place to March2016 – with a head-scratching Sweet 16 lossand plenty of promise fornext season.

A peek at next seasonstarts with junior point

guard Kelsey Mitchell,twice the Big Ten Playerof the Year and, barring aninjury, a near-lock to breakOhio State’s career scoringrecord — along with sev-eral others — next season.

She’s also eligible forthe 2017 WNBA Draft, inwhich she would almostcertainly be a coveted pickfor most f ranchises .Mitchell foregoing her se-nior year of eligibilitywould be a surprise, and asudden one – the deadlineto declare is just after theNCAA title game — butminutes after a difficultloss, Mitchell did not tipher hand.

“I haven’t even thoughtthat far. I’m just going totake this loss and soak init,” said Mitchell, whoadded she did not have adeadline in place for herdecision. “That’s it. That’sall there is to it.”

Friday marked an emo-tional goodbye for forwardShayla Cooper, the team’slone senior. Amid the dis-appointment of her depar-ture is the consolation ofnine of the team’s 10 lead-ing scorers returning, withAlexa Hart , LinnaeHarper , Asia Doss ,Stephanie Mavunga andMitchell all seniors.

Mitchell said Friday

taught the Buckeyes abouta need for growth, that ahumbling loss can boostthe team culture.

“We’ve been through alot as a team. We’ve beenthrough everything. Fromthe ups and downs, thelosses, the crazy practicesthat we have sometimes,to the arguments amongteammates, I think it’smade us great people,”Mitchell said. “I think thisgame has taught us a lotabout ourselves and wherewe need to grow as playersand as people in general.”

Ohio State’s exit fromRupp Arena Friday nightofficially kicked off whatcoach Kevin McGuff la-beled a “great opportu-nity” in the 2017-18 sea-son.

He feels he has the rightplayer in his program.Growth between Marcheswill go a long way in deter-mining whether the Buck-eyes can take the next step— ending an Elite Eightdrought that stretches to1993.

“We’ l l get back,”McGuff said. “We’ll get alittle bit of rest, and we’llput a plan together tomake sure we have a greatspring, summer and falland we’ll be ready to gonext year.”

Werenski takes lumps vs. CapitalsWerenski takes lumps vs. CapitalsBy TOM REEDThe Columbus Dispatch

W A S H I N G T O N —Blue Jackets defensemanZach Werenski skatedslowly to the bench onThursday after being thered meat in a Tom Wil-son and Jay Beagle sand-wich behind the team'snet late in the first pe-riod.

Wi l son , among theNHL leaders in hits, ap-peared to catch the 19-year-old with an elbow orshoulder that left him indiscomfort. The Wash-ington Capi ta l s wingstruck again with an-other big shot on therookie early in the sec-ond period.

Coincidence or not,

Werenski was not mucho f a f a c t o r i n a 2 - 1shootout loss to the Cap-itals in a game for thet o p s p o t i n t h eMetropolitan Divisionand the NHL. He waskept without a shot ongoal after having col-lected 11 points in theprevious 13 games.

W e r e n s k i i s n ostranger to getting hit.He has been a targetsince his rookie-of-the-year candidacy gainedmomentum in November.But the game served as areminder of how oppo-nents will treat him in biggames.

It will be interestingto see whether coachJohn Tortorella showsclips of the hits before

KENT STATE ROUNDUP

Flashes give softball coach EricFlashes give softball coach EricOakley career victory No. 100Oakley career victory No. 100Record-CourierSta Report

The Kent State softballteam defeated host EasternMichigan 6-3 Saturday af-ternoon to win two ofthree games in the Mid-American Conference sea-son-opening series in Ypsi-lanti, Mich., giving headcoach Eric Oakley careerwin No. 100.

“Every conference win isimportant, and a series winis also important in case ofties,” said Oakley. “EasternMichigan is a good club,and I have no doubt theywill be at Firestone Sta-dium in May (for the MACTournament).”

After hitting a pair ofhome runs and driving inseven runs in Friday’s dou-bleheader, Eastern Michi-gan (12-14, 1-2 MAC)elected to intentionallywalk senior Maddy Grimm

in all four of her plate ap-pearances Saturday. Thatstrategy backfired, as thethree batters followingGrimm in the lineup com-bined for five RBI in thefirst two innings.

“They took Maddy out ofthe game, which is some-thing teams have done inthe past and will probablychoose to do again thisyear,” Oakley said. “I’m re-ally proud of how the restof the lineup responded to-day.”

The Flashes (10-15, 2-1)struck for two runs in theirfirst at-bat, as sophomoreJen Cader delivered a two-out, two-run double. Theythen broke it open with afour-run second inning, asBailey Brownfield (2 sin-gles) had an RBI single andKellie Abeska singled intwo more runs to put KentState up 6-0.

Ronnie Ladines (4-9)

took a no-hitter into thefourth before giving up athree-run homer, but fol-lowed that with threeshutout innings to earn thewin. Ladines allowed justfour hits and no walks withfour strikeouts.

“Ronnie had a great out-ing both in the circle and atthe plate hitting behindMaddy,” Oakley said. “Shereally buckled down afterthe home run, and she washuge in getting those threeKs to end the game. Ourdefense behind Ronnie wasalso much better today.”

Kent State’s nine-game,10-day spring break tripcontinues with a singlegame at No. 9 Alabama onTuesday and a double-header at Evansville onWednesday.BASEBALL

Kent State (14-6) movedto 2-0 on the young MAC

season with its secondstraight victory at BallState (11-12, 0-2) on Satur-day, erasing a one-rundeficit with a three-runsixth inning that paved theway for a 6-3 triumph inMuncie, Ind.

Zach Willeman (4-2)pitched 5 1/3 innings toearnthe win with a hugeassist from Jared Skol-nicki, who saved the dayby tossing 3 2/3 shutoutinnings of relief. Skolnickiallowed just one hit andone walk while striking outfour.

“I thought today it wasreally important for ourbullpen to be locked down,and Skolnicki came in andit changed the whole face ofthe game,” said KSU coachJeff Duncan. “He was ahuge reason why wewon.After they scoredthose three runs in consec-utive innings, it was impor-

tant for us to bounce backand put up that three-spot.It was huge.”

The Flashes scored twicein the first inning, withTim DalPorto (double, 2singles) contributing anRBI single. The Cardinalsscored single runs in thethird, fourth and fifth in-nings to go up 3-2, butKent State countered withits sixth-inning three-spot.Reilly Hawkins and LukeBurch each produced RBIsingles.

Ball State had the basesloaded with one out in thes ixth , but Skolnickirecorded a strikeout andflyout to escape the jam.Mason Mamarella, who hadthree hits for the Flashes,added an insurance runwith an RBI single in theninth.

The final game of the se-ries is set for today at 1p.m.

Browns’Browns’search forsearch forlongtermlongtermTE answerTE answercontinuescontinuesBy STEVE DOERSHUKThe Canton Repository

It has been a spell sincethe Browns carried a steadypass-catching threat at tightend through any number ofyears.

Ozzie Newsome wasmoving past his prime asthe Browns rolled throughtheir five consecutive play-off years in the 1980s, but“The Wiz” was there theentire time.

The Hall of Fame tightend caught 199 passes inregular seasons during thatstretch.

In the decades I ’vewatched the Browns, theirmost stunning finish to agame was on Jan. 3, 1987 inthe playoffs against the Jets.Oz caught six passes for 114yards in that one.

We mention this not be-cause there is a Newsome tobe had in the upcoming NFLDraft. There are, however,several high end candidatesto give the Browns morethan ordinary production,longterm.

Sometimes a tight end whowinds up really helping dropsa bit. Rob Gronkowski was aNo. 42 overall pick the yearTom Heckert said T.J. Wardwas by far the best draft valuea bit higher in Round 2.

Travis Kelce, from Cleve-land Heights and the Univer-sity of Cincinnati, went to theChiefs at No. 63.

With a large stash of picks,the Browns are in better posi-tion than their competitors torisk a pick on a super prospectfrom a smaller school.

The Browns could have useda big stash of picks in the Kelcedraft. After taking BarkeviousMingo at No. 6, hey didn’t pickagainst until No. 68.

Big production from a tightend made a difference in 2007.Kellen Winslow, in his oneglimpse of why Butch Davistraded up to No. 6 overall to gethim, surpassed 1,000 yards,and the Browns went 10-6.

Obviously, it’s more compli-cated than having a good tightend option. Gary Barnidgewent over 1,000 for the 2015team that went 3-13.

Butch Davis should havelistened to them.McCOWN’S CAREER

Considerate behavior,conscientious attention towork and God-given giftshave added up to a nice,off-the-beaten-path careerfor Josh McCown.

According to spo-trac.com, his career earn-ings through his secondseason with the Brownswere a shade more than$32 million.

That was before helanded a fully guaranteed$6 million deal with the

Jets his week.In the 2015 Browns

opener against the Jets,you may recall, McCownwas hurt in “a helicoptercrash” at the goal line butlived to earn another pay-day.

The Jets will play atCleve land th is year .There’s a draft to getthrough, but for nowMcCown is regarded asNew York’s No. 1 QB,ahead of Bryce Petty andChristian Hackenberg.INJURIES FORDEVIN SMITH

Former Massillon andOhio State receiver DevinSmith certainly knowswhere Cleveland is, but hehasn’t come close to find-

ing himself with the Jets.Amid broken ribs, knee

surgery and other factors,he has played just 14 of apossible 32 games. That in-cludes just four games in2016, when he caught onepass for 20 yards.

Coming off the season,asked by the New YorkDaily News if he might beon the trading block, Smithsaid, “I’m going to leavethat up to them. I wouldn’tmind still being here. I’mvery comfortable here. So,we’re going to see.”

There is a logjam of re-ceivers on the Jets. Thereis not a logjam of receiversin Cleveland. Meanwhile,there are not a lot of wide-outs associated with a 4.2740, said to be his best in

the 2015 pre-draft season.Smith seems not to have

lost his confidence, tellingthe Daily News, “I’m just go-ing to keep climbing, man.Everybody is going to knowabout Devin Smith. So, I’mnot worried about it.”

Smith was the 37th pickof the 2015 draft. I suspectRay Farmer hoped he woulddrop to the Browns at No.43. Farmer wound up trad-ing down from that spot andpicking edge rusher NateOrchard at No. 51.

Smith averaged 28.2yards on 33 catches as a2014 Buckeye. Three of his12 TDs came against Wis-consin in the Big Ten titlegame, and one cameagainst Alabama in the na-tional semifinals.

McDOUGALDSIGNS WITHSEATTLE

Bradley McDougald wasnot that all that tied toOhio as a teenager (hehopped from Dublin SciotoHigh School to Baylor) andnot compelled to returnthis week (he signed withSeattle after dropping byBerea).

The Browns are stilllooking for a safety. It willbe tricky getting the rightone in the draft if theytrade the No. 12 overallpick or spend it on MitchTrubisky. Even if they stayput at 12, the big guns (in-cluding Ohio State’s MalikHooker) might be gone.

Cavs coach Tyronn Luecalled time and pulled hisstarters, conceding the winto the Wizards, who areplaying with swagger andhave the look of a teampoised to make some post-season noise.

James scratched his rightcornea on Friday nightwhen he got poked in theeye by Charlotte’s JeremyLamb. He stayed in thegame, but afterward saidthere was a chance he

would rest against theWizards and the Cavslisted him as questionableuntil about two hours be-fore tip-off.

James took the floorwearing glasses for the firsttime in his career andplayed the first eight min-utes before tossing themaside.

Wall, who played Fridayafter shaking off a migraineheadache and helped Wash-ington clinch a playoff spot,didn’t miss in the first quar-ter, when the Wizardsbarely misfired.

Violenceagainst aRikers Islandguard spurscall forshutdown

NEW YORK — The lat-est in a string of brutalitycases against Rikers Islandguards has added fuel to agrowing debate on whetherNew York City’s notoriouslyviolent jail complex has be-come so dysfunctional itshould be shut down.

At least 35 staff membersat Rikers have faced crimi-nal charges in the past threeyears, including 13 for as-sault or attempted assault.Federal prosecutors havealso charged more than ahalf dozen Rikers guardswith violating inmates’ civilrights through excessiveforce, smuggling drugs andother charges since 2014.

“Rikers Island is one ofthese long-term injusticesand abuses that every NewYorker should be outragedabout,” said New YorkGov. Andrew Cuomo. “Thesituation is intolerable.”

Inmate activists have formore than a year arguedthat shutting down thesprawling, 10-jail complexon the East River is theonly solution for a cycle ofabuses that include vio-lence by guards and gangmembers, mistreatment ofthe mentally ill and juve-niles and unjustly long de-tention for minor offenders.

“If you are a New Yorker

who cares about the soul ofthe criminal justice system,you know that Rikers is thebelly of the beast,” saidGlenn Martin, founder of thenonprofit group JustLeader-shipUSA, which seeks to de-crease the number of Ameri-cans behind bars.

Among the other argu-ments for closing Rikers isthat the island facility nearLa Guardia Airport — acces-

sible only by a narrow bridge— is too isolated, cutting offinmates from the outsideworld in a way that hindersoversight and rehabilitation.

Daily populations at Rik-ers have recently been fall-ing below the roughly10,000 capacity, a trend cityofficials attribute to reduc-ing detention for thosecharged with misdemeanordrug possession. Advocates

say that makes it viable todismantle Rikers and re-place it with a combinationof new and expanded exist-ing jai ls in Brooklyn,Queens and the Bronx. Costestimates have reached ashigh as $10 billion.

New York City Mayor Billde Blasio has stuck to his po-sition that reforms and im-provements at Rikers areboth the least costly and

most practical approach.A 2015 settlement of

civil litigation over perva-sive brutality at Rikers im-posed various changes, in-cluding the addition ofthousands of surveillancecameras, stricter policieson use of force and the ap-pointment of a federal mon-itor to oversee conditions.

Cuomo, who frequentlyis at odds with fellowDemocrat de Blasio, tookan indirect jab at the mayorat a community forum ear-lier this month, saying hisview of the city’s position isthat closing Rikers wouldbe “too hard.”

“Well you know what,impotence is not a defensefor me,” the governor said.“New York City can ac-complish anything it wantsto, when it wants to. It justneeds the political will. Itis an outrage in New YorkCity to allow Rikers Islandto exist.”

The latest brutality casestems from security videotapein a maximum-securityshower area that shows guardRodiny Calypso viciously at-tacking an unnamed inmatein February 2014, a criminalcomplaint says. After the pairexchanged words — Calypsoclaims the inmate spit on him— the guard handcuffed thevictim and punched him inthe face and the head severaltimes, it says.

Rape upsurges in South Sudan civil warRape upsurges in South Sudan civil warBy SAM MEDNICKAssociated Press

Rape reaches ‘epic proportions’ in South Sudan’s civil war; ‘If I talk about it, I just cry’Rape reaches ‘epic proportions’ in South Sudan’s civil war; ‘If I talk about it, I just cry’

MUNDRI, South Sudan— After months of beingraped by her rebel captorsin the middle of South Su-dan’s civil war, the youngwoman became pregnant.Held in a muddy pit, some-times chained to otherpr i soners , she l a terwatched her hair fall outand her weight plummet.But the child was a sparkof life.

And so she named himBarack Obama, she ex-plains, now free. “I stillhave hope,” she says, ca-ressing the baby’s cheekwith a finger. “I just don’teven know where to start.”

The slender 23-year-oldis one of thousands of rapevictims in South Sudan’sthree-year-old conflict,which has created one ofthe world’s largest humani-tarian crises. Sexual vio-lence has reached “epic pro-portions,” says the U.N.Commission on HumanRights in South Sudan.

Reported incidents ofsexual or gender-based vio-lence rose 60 percent lastyear. Seventy percent ofwomen sheltering in U.N.camps in the capital, Juba,

had been raped since theconflict began, according toa U.N. humanitarian surveyconducted in December.

Mundri, a city of 47,000people in Amadi state, hasbeen called the epicenter ofthe problem. Aid organiza-tions blame it on the recentincrease in fighting here be-tween rebels and govern-ment troops, the latest shiftof the war in an alreadydevastated nation.

The young woman didn’texpect to become em-broiled in South Sudan’sconflict.

“I just came back to visitmy home and I lost mydreams,” she said in an in-terview earlier this month.“If I talk about it, I justcry.”

She had been visiting herfamily in the summer of2015, with plans to returnto school in the capital,Juba. She never made itback.

Instead, she was ab-ducted by rebels loyal to anopposition group calling it-self MTN, after a popularAfrican telephone com-pany. Their catch phraseriffs on the company’s slo-gan, taunting: “We’re ev-erywhere you go.”

The rebels burst through

the door of her mother’shut, firing their weaponsand shouting, she said.They were searching forher uncle, who’d been ac-cused of conspiring withgovernment forces.

“They beat my grandfa-ther and aunt and then saidif they couldn’t find my un-cle they’ll take me instead,”she said. “I told them I’drather die than go withthem.”

But the rebels draggedher into the bush andbrought her to their head-quarters, where she wascharged, tried and con-victed for her uncle ’s“crimes.”

For the next 16 months,she was forced to live inlarge, muddy pits infestedwith snakes, she said. Sub-sisting on only vegetables,she wasted away.

“I’m not attractive any-more,” she says now, tug-ging at the waistband ofher baggy pants. Shiftingaround in a plastic chairoutside a coffee shop, sheshyly adjusted her head-scarf, covering what littlehair she has left.

She said she was releasedin December because shebecame ill.

“They told me to get

medicine and then changedtheir minds and told me toleave and never comeback,” she said.

Mundri has many suchstories. According to a re-cent Inter-Agency assess-ment by international andlocal organizations focusedon gender-based violence,29 rape cases were re-ported in Mundri betweenAugust and October.

Local organizations saythe number is likely doublethat, but most incidents gounreported because ofstigma surrounding rape.

“Realistically, it’s morelike over 50 cases,” saidJames Labadia, founder ofMAYA, a local aid organi-zation that focuses onwomen’s empowerment. Hehas been working with rapesurvivors for several yearsbut said things have neverbeen so dire.

“The end of 2016 was theworst quarter I’ve everseen,” he said.

The group receivedfunds from the U.S. Agencyfor International Develop-ment last year and Labadiaplans to seek more, a possi-b i l i ty which may beclouded by President Don-ald Trump’s proposed bud-get cuts.

Reports of rape and ab-duction are rampant onboth sides in Mundri,which is under governmentcontrol while neighboringvillages are held by the op-position.

“They stuck their fingersin my daughter’s under-wear,” said another resi-dent, a 26-year-old mother.

In September, two sol-diers broke into her houseand tried to assault hermother and 9-year-oldchild, she said. She beggedto be raped instead. “If theytouched my daughter Iwould have died.”

The soldiers left herdaughter and mother aloneand gang-raped her instead,while her family was forcedto listen in the adjacentroom, she said.

She reported the case tothe county commissionerbut said no one was everarrested. She lives in fear itwill happen again.

South Sudanese officialsinsist they are taking stepsto counter sexual violence.Things in Mundri areslowly improving, saidAbokato Kenyi, the minis-ter of education, genderand social welfare in Amadistate.

“The government has

put out a new law that anysoldier who misbehaveswill now be punished,”Kenyi said. As of January,he said, anyone convictedof rape will be sentencedto prison.

During the town’s firstInternational Women’s Daycelebration since 2014 ear-lier this month, Kenyicalled on men and womento work together to combatsexual assault.

“Come out from thefear,” he said.

But survivors say whatthey really want is to re-build their lives.

Since returning to thecommunity, the 23-year-oldrape victim has receivedpsychosocial support fromMAYA’s staff and joined awomen’s empowermentgroup. They’re launchingbusiness initiatives such asselling soap and bakedgoods in hopes of helpingwomen become self-suffi-cient.

Ultimately, her dream isto return to school and be-come a nurse.

“I can’t give up,” shesaid. “I need to continuegoing to school and fight-ing for my rights. Whenyou get the woman, you getthe nation.”

SOUND OFF!How many places does Meijer’s have to be ap-proved before it builds? Stow, Aurora and now Brimfield. Nothing there.

Crestwood homeowners note: the school board will waste your taxes on a grandiose school we do not need. The teachers don’t teach.

All these businesses in Brimfield are wonderful. Kent and Ravenna are not moving enough. Con-gratulations, Trustees! You’re building up your area. I can remember when the township was dead. Good luck!

The TV ad shows an anorexic woman in high heels. Welcome back to the fifties.

We purchased a used car from a nice man in Ravenna. When some-thing went wrong, he had it repaired, but it came back to us full of grease and dirt.

Trumpcare: higher taxes for seniors and

increased premiums. This is Paul Ryan’s new death panel for the old and sick. Big tax break for the rich. GOP: mission accomplished.

Still no progress on the Brady Lake roads. If you want them fixed, vote to dissolve the village. The community only benefits certain people. Give it back to Franklin or Ravenna Township. Vote No in May.

Those Trump supporters who will lose their healthcare? You can’t fix stupid.

The TV ad shows LBJ, Clinton and Obama and said they lied. What about Nixon and Watergate, Bush’s so-called free oil from the Iraq war, and Reagan’s Iran-Contra affair?

Your Real Estate Guide section: I like reading it. My favorite thing is the house plan, but re-cently you’re making the plan so small is impos-sible to read. Please make it more readable.

Instead of Trump tweeting about me, me, me, he should teach his Cabinet. You’d think Ben Carson would know the difference between im-migration and slavery.

Replacement of ACA should not turn back the clock and put the insurance companies in charge.

There are now thirty-six lobbyists from big business appointed by President Trump to work in the White House. Is this what he meant by draining the swamp?

An article explains that the ads featuring Josh Mandel with Urban Myer were paid for with tax-payer money. We need to ask why this is coming out now? He is running for the U.S. Senate.

The Congressional Budget Office knows the reform of ACA will increase the budget. ACA has helped 20 million. Republicans say it only helped 5 million. They’re trying to downplay the CBO assessment of the new law.

I enjoy the Christmas lights, but not your bark-ing dog. Bring it inside.

Republican Courier, your representatives say men shouldn’t have to pay for prenatal care. Then women shouldn’t have to pay for prostate care.

The claim that those criticizing Trump are on welfare: please be advised that neither I nor my friends or family have taken anything from the government. Please fact check the information you are listening to.

I see the pro-Trump with their alternative facts are alive and well in Sound Off.

Technology will soon replace hamburger flip-pers with robots and not cost $15 per hour. May-be they can replace our lazy Congressmen who are scheduled to work only eight days in April!

Whoever wrote that Main Street in Ravenna is dirty is correct. Businesses should help clean it up.

HOROSCOPESUNDAY, MARCH 26, 2017Happy Birthday: Share what you know, but be dis-creet about what you are up to. Don’t mix business with pleasure. Try your best to keep others guessing. Use what you see and learn to help you counter any-one trying to outmaneuver you. Keep up with technol-ogy, current affairs and changes happening at work, and you will be able to take advantage of opportu-nities. Your numbers are 7, 15, 24, 32, 37, 45, 49.ARIES (March 21-April 19) sss: Go the distance. If you can make a better presentation in person, set up an appointment. Opportunity will present itself if you are dedicated, determined and ready to take ac-tion. Peace, love and romance will improve your per-sonal relationships.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ssss: Use what you know to get ahead, but be willing to learn as you go. Give-and-take along with compassion and wanting what’s best for everyone will result in greater popularity, trust and respect. Actions will speak louder then words.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ss: Offer help for the right reasons and only accept assistance from someone who is not trying to get something from you. Ulterior motives are prevalent going both ways and caution

must be taken when dealing with joint endeavors. CANCER (June 21-July 22) sssss: Keep an open mind and a willingness to listen to what others have to say. Getting along with others will be in your best interests. Being reasonable and avoiding temptation or indulgent behavior should be your priority.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) sss: Take care of personal paperwork, taxes or settlements that are pending. It’s best to take care of responsibilities before you engage in social activities. A clear conscience and worry-free attitude will allow you to be more fun-lov-ing and romantic.VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) sss: Short trips, romantic encounters and quality time with the people you en-joy being with the most should be on your agenda. A physical challenge will get you pumped up and ready to take on the world. Strive for personal perfection.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) sss: When dealing with home, family and your personal assets, be sure to take your time. Making an impulsive decision will lead to a power struggle. Don’t give in to pressure or de-mands that are not in your best interest.SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) sssss: Make love and personal relationships with friends, family and your loved one a priority. Your unique approach to

the way you live will attract interesting people. Join-ing forces with someone is favored.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ss: Home and fam-ily should take precedence. You can bring about fa-vorable changes if you include everyone in your de-cision-making. Don’t let an outside influence slowyou down. Dismiss anyone using emotional tacticsor pressure to undermine you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ssss: Look for cre-ative alternatives that work for you rather than giv-ing into an unrealistic plan that someone else wants you to take on. Rely on past experience and lay the groundwork to follow a path that suits your needs.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) sss: Keep an open mind, but don’t believe someone’s claims regarding emotional matters that involve you. Go to the sourceif you want facts and better insight into a situationthat is causing confusion or self-doubt. Offer peace and love, not unrest.PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) sss: An emotional sit-uation will mount if you don’t address issues direct-ly. Show your concerns and offer the facts to avoid anyone getting the wrong idea. Follow through with actions and don’t look back.

What game are you playing in life?What game are you playing in life?GINA BARRECATribune News Service

What board game best describes yourlife? Which sums up your personal situa-tion at the moment: “Risk”? “Trouble”?“Mystery Date”?

I did a survey among my friends andon Facebook and most people answeredthe question by saying, “Sorry!” Apparently “Sorry!”is the game summing up our existence even more ac-curately than the game “Life,” which explains whypsychoanalysis will never go out of style.

“Sorry!” says it is designed for players ages 6 and up,which is just about when most religions declare that hu-man beings reach the age of reason. So the first thingyou do, once you are a fully functioning and independentbeing, is to apologize for anything you do that helps youachieve your goal. Guilt and success become forever in-tertwined. What fun!

Board games still feel like rare and exotic items forme. When we were living in Brooklyn with my Sicilianrelatives, we weren’t a board game family.

The adults played cards. Kids sat under the table.We were taught very early on to keep our mouthsshut and watch the cards. These are good lessons.

All over the world, you see people playing cards.No matter what country you’re in, people play cards;card games are the games of the poor. Card gamesteach you lessons about luck and skill; they also teachyou patience and how to learn when somebody isbluffing.

These games were usually segregated by sex: I neversaw the women play cards with men, but that wasn’t be-cause the women lacked skill. It was the mothers, grand-mothers and aunts who taught all the kids how to play,after all, and they were as fearless and merciless as theirmale counterparts. Such early tutoring meant mybrother and I could both handle an inside straight by thetime we were in first grade.

But in those days packaged board games were re-garded as exclusively for children. You could nothave convinced an adult who had exactly one day offfrom work that he should spend it with MiltonBradley.

The idea of my Sicilian family being expected to sitdown at the table in the basement kitchen in Brook-lyn to play “Yahtzee” is like the framework for an ab-surdist drama written by Samuel Beckett and directedby Quentin Tarantino. It would be like a cross be-

tween “Waiting for Godot” and “Reser-voir Dogs.” The only thing left by theend of the hour would be the blue plas-tic cup.

Other families, healthier and moremodern families, often enjoy board

games. I’ve heard this from reliable sources, includingmy friend and former student Shannon Cox. Shannonwas trying to explain to me how she and her cousinswould divide into teams, especially during big holidaycelebrations, and play family trivia.

When I heard this, my heart stuttered. Immediately Iwas back in the basement in Brooklyn, imagining mycousins competing by answering our family’s trivia ques-tions, such as “What year did Little Lennie finally getout of Ossining?” or “Who’s the actual father of Marie’soldest boy?” I panicked.

Seeing the blood drain from my face, Shannon quicklyexplained that it was merely a lively game of “Trivia” asplayed by her family, not a quiz about secrets in her fam-ily. But she added that, for one birthday, her mom in-deed designed a game of trivia based on incidents inShannon’s own life. Shannon’s best friend easily won,thereby putting Shannon’s immediate family to shame. Ibet even those non-Mediterranean types were suspiciousthat somebody unrelated to them knew so much of theirstory.

Depending on the day, my life’s game varies: Somedays are all “Concentration” and some are “Aggrava-tion.” I avoid “Operation” (funny bone excepted) andhave abandoned “Miss Popularity.”

Given one game, I choose “Chutes and Ladders.” As Imove around the board, one year at a time, the moreclearly I see the interplay between undeserved luck —both bad and good — and earned achievement. Younever know what unexpected moment of grace will raiseyou up or what surprising act of sabotage will put youdown. It’s only when you’re at the bottom of the ladderthat you ascend.

So roll the dice; hit the spinner; take your chance.Don’t skip your turn; who knows when it will comeagain?

A duty, a ritual, a rite of passageDEBRA-LYNN HOOKTribune News Service

NEW ORLEANS — I’m sitting in a cof-fee shop on Royal Street in the FrenchQuarter, trying to come to terms with thepurple satin stiletto I threw away a fewdays ago.

It was my mother’s. And like hundredsof other things that once belonged to her, I relegated itto the landfill.

I, with full support from my three sisters, also ap-proved the disposal of the cream-and-pink linen suitMama wore to our grandfather’s funeral.

We threw out boxes of perfectly good, old-fashionedChristmas tree light bulbs; the broken lamp that sat onour mother’s bedside table when we were little; herknee-high black boots, which my youngest sister notedstill held the shape of her calves; her long black wig;and her extensive collection of lingerie — all in all, 22large, black garbage bags and six boxes full of earthlyminutiae that once constituted a life, over which mysisters and I had been given sole authority.

The job of sorting through and dividing up a deceasedparent’s things is a duty, a ritual and a rite of passagethat often falls to the children.

It’s a job my sisters and I managed to avoid for 12years since the twin tragedies that befell our family in2005. First, our mother who’d already lived a difficultlife of abuse, depression, disability, and poverty, died adifficult death in a fire she accidentally set in her mod-est New Orleans bungalow.

Then, before we could finish sorting through herthings, came Hurricane Katrina to drown 80 percent ofNew Orleans, including Mama’s modest house and allthe furniture on the first floor.

One of my sisters eventually gutted and restored thehouse. But my sisters were in no shape to deal with thesalvageable contents.

We shoved everything into an 8x10 storage facility,where it stayed until two weeks ago when my sistersand I decided it was time to confront the folder ofheartbreaking poetry pieces we forgot she wrote; thethree pages of a journal detailing the abuse her motherinflicted on her; her cookbooks and recipe cards, someof which I helped her write; our board games, babybooks, Girl Scout uniforms and First Communion veilsI didn’t know she’d saved; the notebook of lottery num-bers she played mathematically over the years so shecould one day buy a big house where all her childrenand grandchildren could live happily ever after in oneplace.

One sister drove in from Memphis to help withthe storage facility joining the sister who lives inNew Orleans. Another Facetimed from Washingtonstate.

And I flew in from Ohio with my 24-year-old daugh-ter who knew the difficult task her mom and auntieshad before them, who wanted to help, which she didquietly, contemplatively and non-stop it seems, for twodays.

With the help of a professional organizer, the four ofus on the ground spent a full weekend in the parking

lot, sorting, deciding what of Mama’sthings could be tossed and who shouldget what of the stack of nursing note-books from when she’d sent herselfback to school in her 50s; the “good”china she bought piece-by-piece that

one year at the grocery store; the Christmas decora-tions that helped supplant her depression; and the wed-ding dress she wore when she was 18, which was notwhite but Scarlett Letter blue because she was withchild.

Our emotions tempered by time were nonethelessrubbed raw again as we saw and touched our mother’sthings. Laid bare before us in piles on blue tarps in aparking lot, even the smallest thing was a reminder ofsome significant part of our mother’s life, not the leastof which was how hard she tried.

There was no more stark reminder than the purpleshoe.

Maybe it’s because its purple toe was stuffed with anemerald green stocking to help it keep its shape —Mardi Gras colors, reminding me of my mother’s wisedecision to move her counter-culture self and herdaughters from conservative South Carolina to NewOrleans in the 1970s.

Maybe the shoe symbolized for me the priorities inher life. Mama was a beautiful woman for whom stylewas important. No matter what else was failing in herlife — boyfriends, health, finances — at least she wastaking care of her shoes.

Maybe it’s because I’d never seen the shoe before,leaving me to wonder what else I didn’t know. Ormaybe it’s because I needed something sad and compli-cated to fixate on, other than the feelings I had aboutmy mother.

For many long minutes after I found it, I held the shoeto the sunlight, trying to understand its meaning, pur-pose or place. Finding none, I cavalierly tossed it in oneof the throw-away piles; I didn’t want to be the one sis-ter who was keeping stupid things for no reason.

And now four days later, I find myself wishing I couldgo to the landfill and get it back.

I say as much to Emily, whose response tells me whatshe is already made of, maybe as a result of this experi-ence.

“It’s OK, Mom. It’s not the things that matter. It’s thememories.”

She is wise and I know she is right. I also know wewill be driving off day after tomorrow in a rented SUVpacked stem-to-stern with a collection of mostly uselessthings that will sit in my basement until it’s my chil-dren’s turn to divide up what’s left of me.

“It’s our way of filling the void,” I tell her.Just not, alas, with the help of a phantom purple shoe.

‘Sesame Street’ addresses autism‘Sesame Street’ addresses autism

By FRAZIER MOOREAssociated Press

47th Season of "Sesame Street," on April 10 on both PBS and HBO.47th Season of "Sesame Street," on April 10 on both PBS and HBO.

New MuppetJulia to becomeone of the gang

NEW YORK — Folks onSesame Street have a wayof making everyone feel ac-cepted.

That certainly goes forJulia, a Muppet youngsterwith blazing red hair,bright green eyes — andautism. Rather than beingtreated like an outsider,which too often is theplight of kids on the spec-trum, Julia is one of thegang.

Look: On this friendliestof streets (actually StudioJ at New York’s KaufmanAstoria Studios, where“Sesame Street” lives) Ju-lia is about to play a gamewith Oscar, Abby andGrover. In this scene beingtaped for airing next sea-son, these Muppet chumshave been challenged tospot objects shaped likesquares or circles or trian-gles.

“You’re lucky,” saysAbby to Grover. “You haveJulia on your team, and sheis really good at findingshapes!”

With that, they skedad-dle, an exit that calls forthe six Muppeteers squat-ted out of sight belowthem to scramble accord-ingly. Joining her pals, Ju-lia (performed by StaceyGordon) takes off hunt-ing.

For more than a year,Julia has existed in printand digital illustrations asthe centerpiece of a multi-faceted initiative by Se-same Workshop called “Se-same Street and Autism:See Amazing in All Chil-dren.”

She has been the subjectof a storybook releasedalong with videos, e-books,an app and website. Thegoal is to promote a betterunderstanding of what theAutism Speaks advocacygroup describes as “a rangeof conditions characterizedby challenges with socialskills, repetitive behaviors,speech and nonverbal com-munication, as well as byunique strengths and differ-ences.”

But now Julia has beenbrought to life in fineMuppet fettle. She makesher TV debut on “SesameStreet” in the “Meet Julia”episode airing April 10 on

both PBS and HBO. Addi-tional videos featuring Ju-lia will be available on-line.

Developing Julia and allthe other components ofthis campaign has requiredyears of consultation withorganizations, experts andfamilies within the autismcommunity, according toJeanette Betancourt, Se-same Workshop’s seniorvice president of U.S. So-cial Impact.

“In the U.S., one in 68children is diagnosed withautism spectrum disorder,”she says. “We wanted topromote a better under-standing and reduce thestigma often found aroundthese children. We’re mod-eling the way both childrenand adults can look atautism from a strength-based perspective: findingthings that all childrenshare.”

Julia is at the heart ofthis effort. But while sherepresents the full range of

children on the spectrum,she isn’t meant to typifyeach one of them: “Just aswe look at all children asbeing unique, we shoulddo the same thing whenwe’re looking at childrenwith autism,” Betancourtsays.

It was with keen interestthat Stacey Gordon firstlearned of Julia more than ayear ago. “I said, ‘If she’sever a puppet, I want to BEJulia!’”

No wonder. Gordon is aPhoenix-based puppeteerwho performs, conductsclasses and workshops,and creates whimsicalpuppets for sale to thepublic.

She also has a son withautism, and, before shestarted her family, was atherapist to youngsters onthe spectrum.

Although she figuredher chances of landing thedream role of Julia werenil, her contacts in thepuppet world paid off:

Two friends who workedas Muppeteers on “Se-same Street” dropped hername to the producers.After submitting tapes,then coming to New Yorkfor an audition, she washired.

In the introductory seg-ment, Julia is having funwith Abby and Elmo whenBig Bird walks up. Hewants to be her new friend,but she doesn’t speak tohim. He thinks she doesn’tlike him.

“She does things just alittle differently, in a Juliasort of way,” Abby informshim.

Julia, chuckling, thendisplays a different-but-funway of playing tag, and ev-eryone joins in. But whena siren wails, she coversher ears and looksstricken.

“She needs to take abreak,” Big Bird’s humanfriend Alan calmly explains.Soon, all is well and play re-sumes.

“ T h e ‘ M e e t J u l i a ’episode is something thatI wish my son’s friendshad been ab le to seewhen they were small,”says Gordon. “I remem-ber h im hav ing mel t -downs and his classmatesnot understanding how toreact.”

Gordon says her son,now 13, isn’t drawn to pup-petry. “He’s more inter-ested in math and science,and plays the piano bril-liantly,” she says withpride.

But she’s having a blastbeing part of the show thathelped hook her, as a child,on puppeteering.

“It is so much fun to beon set with everyone, andget to play up all the pos-itive things I’ve seen withthe kids that I’ve workedwith,” Gordon says. “Atthe same time, I come atthis with a reverence. Idon’t want to let thea u t i s m c o m m u n i t ydown.”

Focus on qualityingredients for asimply delicious meal

Hosting an elegant Easter brunch is easy when youbuild a menu around exceptional ingredients.Your dishes don’t have to be overly complicated;

simple dishes are perfect for the occasion when you letstand-out flavors steal the show.

Brunch calls for a combination of light and savory fare,and an ingredient like Jarlsberg Brand Cheese lets you goeither way. Best known for its classic wedge, this nutty,mild cheese is also available sliced and shredded — per-fect for adding a distinctive taste to nearly any indulgentdish you can imagine.

Quiche is a brunch staple, and no variation of this clas-sic is complete withoutcheese — in this case, arich, creamy layering ofJarlsberg’s unmistakableflavor does the trick.

For a lighter bite, trythese Cheesy, CrispySmashed Potatoes fromChef George Duran, host ofTLC’s “Ultimate Cake Off”and Food Network’s “Hamon the Street.” You could goa more decadent route withDuran’s Brown Sugar Hamand Cheese Sticky Buns, oreven appeal to kids of allages with his Spicy TaterTot Breakfast Muffins.

Work abroad makes waves at homeJeanne PhilliPsDear Abby

DEAR ABBY: I took anassignment with my com-pany that posted me toHong Kong for two years.My adult children, ages 21,26 and 29, were supportive,although my youngest wasnot especially happy aboutit.

We video chat with ourkids, trying to stay involvedas much as possible. Wehave also visited multipletimes. It’s not always ideal,but we try. We have also of-fered to pay for them tovisit us as often as theywould like.

My company has askedme to stay one more yearbecause I haven’t com-pletely finished what I wassent here to do. I’m in-clined to do it.

My youngest child, how-ever, is so angry at me foreven considering it that shewon’t talk to me. She re-fuses to come and visit, andis punishing me for needingto stay an additional year.Am I choosing my job overmy chi ldren?— PROFESSIONALWOMAN FROMMICHIGAN

DEAR PROFESSIONALWOMAN: Yes, you are, butthere’s a practical reasonfor it. Also, your adult‘‘children” aren’t childrenanymore, even though youryoungest is acting like one.As a career woman, if youfeel you should stay inHong Kong to completeyour assignment, that iswhat you need to do.

DEAR ABBY: I am re-sponding to the letter from‘‘Unsure in the West” (Oct.9). You advised that you‘‘see nothing wrong withwhat she did” in opening abox in a grocery store andeating some of the contentsbefore paying at the check-out.

You should know thatlegally, eating or using thecontents of an unpaid itemin the aisle is considered‘‘shoplifting.” The perpetra-tor can be prosecuted tothe fullest extent of the law.

I am a certified protec-tion professional. While theintent may not be to‘‘steal,” retailers — whoseindustry loses billions ofdollars to theft each year —require that items in theirstores be paid for beforethey can be used or eaten.

An employee of minewas assigned to work in amajor grocery chain. Hetook a bottle of eye dropsand used them while hewas in the aisle.

He had taken the exactchange from his pocket andwas holding it in his handas he walked to the check-out. Before he could getthere, he was arrested bystore security.

As a courtesy to me, thechain agreed to reinstatehim if he passed a lie-detec-

tor test determining his ‘‘in-tent to steal.” (He passedthe test.)

I strongly recommendthat the practice of using oreating items before payingfor them never be con-doned. — ALLAN INYONKERS

DEAR ALLAN: I apolo-gize for saying otherwiseand thank you for your let-ter. Other readers also re-sponded to that column cit-ing firsthand experiencesworking in the retail field.

Several of them men-tioned that it is impossibleto correctly charge for foodthat is sold by weight ifsomeone has eaten some,such as fruit.

Others said that cus-tomers sometimes get to theregister to pay and realizethey have left their walletat home, or their creditcard is rejected.

A reader also suggestedthat if someone wants topay for food after consum-ing it, that’s what restau-rants are for. In restau-rants, if the customer can’tpay, there are dishes to bewashed.

Dear Abby is written byAbigail Van Buren, alsoknown as Jeanne Phillips,and was founded by hermother, Pauline Phillips.Contact Dear Abby atwww.DearAbby.com orP.O. Box 69440, Los Ange-les, CA 90069.

Cooking with gas vs. electricHELOISEHints from Heloise

Dear Heloise: My hus-band and I are building our‘‘dream home.” When itcomes to our stove andovens, we don’t knowwhether to go with gas orelectric. Any suggestions?— Carrie T., Port Huron,Mich.

Carrie, this can be a dif-ficult decision! Generally,you should pick what youare used to. If you havecooked only with gas, thenelectric may be a wholenew learning curve. Hereare a few things to con-sider:

Electric stoves usuallyare less expensive thangas.

Electric stoves/ovens:• Smooth-top stoves are

easy to clean, and the coilstoves are, too.

• Electric ovens aredrier than gas ovens.

Gas stoves/ovens:• Instant heat, both on

and off.• Both natural and

propane gas are inexpen-sive and save money in thelong run.

• Gas ovens are hotterat the top, and gas gives offmoisture.

• Gas stoves are a littlemore difficult to clean be-cause of the heavy irongrates.

If the cost of the appli-ance is a factor, electric isthe way to go. If you cook

and bake a lot, you maywant to go with gas.Whichever you choose, re-member, you most likelywill be living with the ap-pliance for a long time, sochoose wisely. — Heloise

ORANGE COFFEEDear Heloise: You

have, in the past, printedyour recipe for OrangeCoffee, which my entirefamily loves! I’ve served itto guests, who raved aboutit as well. Sadly, I’ve mis-placed the recipe, so wouldyou please reprint it?— Terrie N., New York,N.Y.

Terrie, here it is:

Orange Coffee

1/2 cup instant coffeegranules

3/4 cup sugar1 cup powdered milk or

coffee creamer1/2 teaspoon dried or-

ange peel (you can usefresh orange zest, but besure to store the mixturein the fridge.)

Blend in a blender untilpowdered. Add 2 roundedteaspoons per 6 to 8 ouncesof hot water.

For additional recipesand hints for coffee and

tea, try my pamphletHeloise’s Flavored Coffeesand Teas. To order one,visit www.Heloise.com, orsend a business-size, self-addressed, stamped (70cents) envelope, along with$3, to: Heloise/HCS, P.O.Box 795001, San Antonio,TX 78279-5001. Don’t for-get to make some sun teathis summer for a refresh-ing drink on a hot day.— Heloise

NO SALT, PLEASEDear Heloise: My oth-

erwise wonderful cardiolo-gist has me on a low- tono-salt diet. I was shockedto discover how much saltthere is in nearly every-thing we eat. I have somesuggestions for your read-ers:

• Always read the ingre-dients labels! Salt contentvaries from one brand tothe next.

• ‘‘Lite” or ‘‘low-cal” of-ten means higher salt con-tent.

• Fry in olive oil, notbutter or margarine.

• The majority of softdrinks, energy drinks,cheese, lunchmeat andcanned soups and vegeta-bles have high amounts ofsodium.

— Ed Y., Villa Park,Calif.

Ed, they do sell salt-freebutter — you can use that!— Heloise
