W hen it comes to giving a per- spective to the critical need for wound care, Dr. Scott Sinner, an internist, offers this jaw dropping statistical reality. If someone walked into a doctor’s of- fice and received a diagnosis of colon cancer, they have a 45 percent chance of dying within five years. That’s why people subject themselves to surgery, radiation treatment and other ex- tremes, he said. If another person enters a doctor’s office with diabetes and a foot ulcer that’s not infected, they also have a 45 percent chance of dying within five years, Sinner said. Like the cancer pa- tient, the diabetic is in need of an ag- gressive treatment. This need, along with many others, is the driving force behind the Mercy Health Wound Care Centers. Sinner, a Milford resident, is the director of the Mercy Health Clermont Hospital Wound Care Center. Mercy Health’s first Wound Care Center opened on a part-time basis at Mercy Health Clermont Hospital in 2004, program director Julie Schultz, of Amelia, said. It was the second such care facility in the area with the first being in Covington. Patient demand soon prompted the center to expand to full-time operation and the opening of three other wound care centers in the Mercy Health family – one each at Fair- field Hospital, West Hospital and the Jewish Hospital. There are multiple reasons behind the increasing need for wound centers, Sinner said. These include health con- ditions that prevent wounds from heal- ing as they should such as diabetes, obe- sity and venous disease (vein issues). With the prevalence of diabetes in Ohio, hard-to-heal wounds related to this disease are increasingly common at the wound centers. According to the Centers for Dis- ease Control and Prevention, 10 percent of Ohio adults were diagnosed with dia- betes in 2009 and another three percent were suspected to be undiagnosed dia- betics. Since 2000, the estimated adult prevalence of diabetes has increased by 37 percent in Ohio. Lifestyle and lim- ited access to quality health care are just a couple of the driving factors be- hind these statistics, Sinner said. Other wounds commonly seen at the centers include those resulting from poor blood circulation, pressure ulcers (bed sores), traumatic wounds, internal wounds resulting from radiation treat- ment and more. One treatment method used at the wound centers is hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Part of the problem with chronic wounds, Sinner said, is that they don’t get enough oxygen to heal. The chamber allows patients to breathe an enormous amount of oxygen for 1 1 /2 to twohours a day, five days a week for about 30 to 40 sessions. “When you breathe oxygen at a high dose, it does things in your body,” he said. It kills infection. It helps to grow new little blood vessels. It reduces in- flammation. “In the end, it can save limbs and it can save lives,” Sinner said. The center is specifically for wounds that won’t heal in a couple of days with an ointment and Band-Aid, Sinner said. No medical referral is needed to be seen at the center, but could be required by a patient’s insur- ance company. The center itself asks a few screening questions. The sooner patients with problem wounds come in the better, he said. According to the center’s literature, a multi-disciplinary team creates a per- sonalized treatment plan for patients which may include: specialized wound dressings, compression therapy, hy- perbaric oxygen therapy, prescription growth factors, bio-engineered skin grafting and more. Treatments offered at the wound center, including the hyperbaric oxy- gen therapy, are typically covered by Medicare and other insurance provid- ers.

Mary Ann Lefker hasbeen mayor of Williams-burg for 16 years, and for16 years the village hasparticipated in ClermontCounty’s Spring LitterClean-Up.

“We have an awesometurnout,” she says. Thefirst year, about 20 kidsshowed up. Now as manyas 100 youth and adultsturn out to pick up litterthroughout the villageand celebrate with a cook-out afterwards.

The Spring LitterClean-Up will be Satur-day, April 23, at 11 loca-tions throughout Cler-mont County. Start timesrange from 9 a.m. to 10a.m., depending on the lo-cation, and the event endsat noon.

The Spring LitterClean-Up, coordinated bythe East Fork WatershedCollaborative and ValleyView Foundation, is an all-volunteer effort to en-hance local communitiesand the East Fork LittleMiami River watershed.Some volunteers paddlein canoes to pick up debrisat East Fork Lake and the

Little Miami River, whileothers walk streambanks, streets and parksto collect litter. Last year,5 tons of trash removedfrom 13 sites across theEast Fork watershed andcounty, including 8 milesof riverbank/lake shore-line.

In Williamsburg, May-or Lefker hands out a mapwith specific spots high-lighted. Then the troopsmove out.

“We have Scouts, youthgroups from churches,and school kids doingcommunity service,”Lefker said. “Everyonegets a bag and the bagscome back full.”

“I encourage kids thatif they see something,pick it up,” she said. “I re-mind them they don’thave to settle, and don’t beafraid to say ‘don’t do that’if they see someone litter-ing.”

“It is inspiring to see somany people come togeth-er each year to help pro-tect the natural resourcesthat make ClermontCounty and the East Forkwatershed unique,” said

Becky McClatchey, wa-tershed coordinator at theClermont County Soil andWater Conservation Dis-trict.

All locations will hold afree picnic lunch begin-ning at noon. Volunteerswill also get a free “Let’sFight Dirty” T-shirt, de-signed by Karley Wrig-glesworth, a fourth-grad-er at New Richmond Ele-mentary.

Locations and registra-tion information can befound at the Spring LitterClean-Up website,www.springlitterclea-nup.com. The event issponsored by the South-ern Ohio Association ofRealtors and ClermontCounty Convention andVisitors’ Bureau.

After 25 years as chair-man of the Ohio Valley Re-gional Development Com-mission, Clermont CountyCommissioner Bob Proudwill hang up his gavelMarch 31. He will be hon-ored at the OVRDC’s an-nual meeting March 18 atUC Clermont.

Proud was first electedchairman in March 1991,and has been re-electedannually since then. JohnHemmings, executive di-rector of the OVRDC, at-tributed that to Proud’sfairness, no matter whatparty or county was repre-sented by fellow boardmembers.

“Bob has always beenvery neutral,” Hemmingssaid. “He’s never differen-tiated between the politicsof people. He’s open mind-ed to other people’s posi-tions.”

Proud, who began histerm as Clermont Countycommissioner in 1989, isnot running for re-elec-tion and therefore will notbe continuing on theOVRDC board beyondDec. 31 of this year. (TheOVRDC is a local districtof the Appalachian Re-gional Commission (ARC)and the U.S. Departmentof Commerce EconomicDevelopment Administra-tion.)

During his tenure,Proud worked closelywith board members on amultitude of projects topromote economic devel-opment throughout the re-gion. It’s often a matter ofgive and take, he says.

“We have 12 counties.It’s a very large district,”Proud said. “Our boardhas elected officials, pri-vate sector, Republicans,Democrats. We have peo-ple with very strong opin-ions. But in 25 years, wehave never once had an ar-gument.

“One county will stepback for a year to benefit

another county, saying‘you need this more thanwe do.’”

Said Ross County Com-missioner Doug Corcoran,“Bob’s always tried tomake sure all the countiesrepresented by OVRDCget their share of projects.He’s helped us get throughall the red tape.”

Pike County Commis-sioner Blaine Beekmansaid that Proud workedclosely with him whenProud sought to move theheadquarters of theOVRDC from Portsmouthto Waverly. “As mayor ofWaverly, I helped him find

a building in Waverly forOVRDC,” Beekman said.

He added that Proudhas been particularlyhelpful in bringing infra-structure projects to PikeCounty.

“Pike County has thehighest unemploymentrate, and not a great eco-nomic base. The ARCmonies have been criticalfor Pike County.”

In Scioto County, Proudhelped Portsmouth getARC funding to build sen-ior citizen housing, saidEugene Collins, anOVRDC board member.“In the early ‘90s, we were

trying to get funds to buildsenior citizen high-riseapartments. We neededassistance from ARC,which Bob helped us get,and we were successful.He’s a very honest individ-ual and very dedicated.”

Since 1991, when Proudbecame chairman, theOVRDC has brought morethan $130 million in eco-nomic developmentgrants into the region. Be-sides Clermont, othercounties include Adams,Brown, Fayette, Gallia,Highland, Jackson, Law-rence, Pike, Ross, Sciotoand Vinton.

Some of the largest andmore recent projects in-clude:

» Madison Mills WaterExtension Project(Fayette County), $2.4 mil-lion;

» Gallia County Indus-trial Park Development(Gallia County), $1.34 mil-lion;

» Greenfield Rail LineImprovements (HighlandCounty), $2.8 million;

» The “Point” Industri-al Park Development(Lawrence County), $1.8million;

» Endeavor CenterBusiness Incubator (PikeCounty), $2.2 million;

More than $4 millionhas come into ClermontCounty in federal andstate funds under the aus-pices of the OVRDC since2005. This has rangedfrom $400,042 for Old SR74 Service Road Connec-tor to College Drive in2006; to $1.04 million forthe Loveland downtownredevelopment projectand $475,821 for the NewRichmond Front Street re-vitalization, both in 2009;to $504,400 for the UCClermont College Centerfor Advanced Manufac-turing in 2012.

St. Ursula Academy» Cincinnati area Catholic

High School students competedin the inaugural Catholic HighSchool Art Exhibition entitled“Imagine Our Spirit.” Saint Ur-sula Academy senior Elisa Rus-sell of Pierce Township earned“Best in Show,” the top honor,with her drawing “Stag HuntReimagined”.

It was while Russell was tak-

ing both AP art studio and APart history that this piece beganto take shape.

“Because Iwas being ex-posed throughthe study of arthistory to manyimportant piecesof art, as well asmany famousartworks thatwere re-imagin-ings of others, I

had become inspired to drawfrom history and create a per-sonal, more stylized take on afamous piece of art work,” Rus-sell said.

“The piece I was inspired byis called Stag Hunt, and it is aGreek mosaic, c. 300 BCE.When I saw this mosaic, I wasreally struck by its compositionand intrigued by the story ittold. The mosaic is a realisticdepiction of a common ancientGreek activity, and my wishthrough this re-imagining was

to imbue it with more mysteri-ous and fantastical elements.My intention when making thispiece was to take a recognizablecomposition and bring my ownstyle and point of view to it.”

Russell intends to attend theUniversity of Kentucky in thefall with an art studio major anda minor in creative writing. Shehopes to pursue a career in fineart or illustration.

In all, more than 70 pieces ofartwork were submitted to thecompetition and three Saint Ur-sula Academy students wererecognized for their entries. Inaddition to Elisa, Caroline Eyer’16 of Pleasant Ridge and KellyGunderson ’16 of Hyde Parkwere also chosen to have theirwork displayed at The Flats ArtGallery in East Price Hill’s In-cline District.

The competition was initiat-ed by Elder art teachers DavidBuetsche and Kim Plagge andMother of Mercy art teachersTheresa Murphy and Murray

Dwertman as a way to recog-nize the tremendous artisticabilities of students enrolled inarea Catholic high schools.

APRIL 13, 2016 • COMMUNITY JOURNAL • 9ANEWS

We were planting potatoes andonions today and I kept thinkingabout Goshen reader Bill Kirby, who

needed a recipe forhalf runner beans likehis wife cooked. Re-member I put out hisrequest a couple weeksago?

Well, the responsewas amazing andequally amazing werethe stories connectedwith this heirloomrecipe. So I’m takingcreative liberty and

devoting the column to half runnerbeans, those special “country” beansand how to cook them. Bill Kirby,know that people care and want youto enjoy a big ole’ pot of beans!

Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herb-alist, educator, Jungle Jim’s Eastgateculinary professional and author. Findher blog online at Abouteating.com.Email her at [email protected] with “Rita’s kitchen” in thesubject line.

Margaret Felix’s beans

Margaret Felix says: “I can answer the question about how to cookthese beans.”

String beans and break into 1 1/2 to two-inch pieces. Rinse thoroughlyand put in pan and cover them with water. Add ham hock or piece of hamand an onion. Bring to boil and simmer until very tender. At this point youcan add small new potatoes or cut up potatoes. Cook till potatoes are ten-der. Add salt and pepper. You can remove ham and pick it apart and addback into beans. The beans will take a couple of hours to get to the verytender stage. Just keep checking them.

Jean Newman’s beans

Jean Newman, a North Bend reader, is in her 80s and has been makingthese for 45 years.

“My husband’s aunt had these beans when we were at her house fordinner when we were first married,” Jean told me. Jean and her husbandare celebrating 60 years in June. “My family loves them, and they are withregular green beans but sounded much the same. Maybe Bill would like totry them.”

3-4 pounds green beans1 piece jowl bacon

Snap beans into small pieces and place in large pot with jowl bacon(discard bacon at end of cooking time). Add salt and cover with cool water.Bring to bubbling boil, then reduce to low and cover and cook 5 hours.Check often to see how they are cooking down and if they need more salt. “

Greg Marshall’s beans

Greg is a Goshen reader. He said: “This is my recipe for“country beans” for Bill Kirby, also from Goshen, Ohio. I use halfrunners, cooked down with a chunk of salt pork, to make adelicious mess of beans. Recipe adapted from my Grand Mother& Mother, both from Blackey, Kentucky. Enjoy!”

2 - 3 lbs. half runners (regular green beans work, don’t cookas long)

1/4 - 1/3 of a chunk of salt pork (unsliced if you can find it)1/3 - 1/2 stick of unsalted butter, or margarineAbout 2 TBL bacon greaseBlack pepper to tasteEnough water to cover about 2 inches (can add 1 can

chicken broth with water)

“Break ends of beans and remove strings on both sides ofbeans & break into desired size pieces. I break some into thirdsand some into halves for a good mix. Rinse and put into largepot. Add salt pork, butter, grease, and pepper. Add water, andbroth if using, to cover about 2 inches. Cover pot with lid askewand bring to boil on med/high heat. Lower heat to med low andcook till tender, about 1-1/2 hours- occasionally checking to addwater if necessary. Remove lid and cook on med high just a bit toevaporate some liquid. Can be cooked ahead and left in pot onstove and reheated when ready to serve. CHECK SEASONING forenough salt and pepper!! Hope you enjoy enjoy a treat fromAppalacia!”

Jan Bowling’s beans

Jan, a Florence, Ky. reader said: “My husband and his family were fromdown in the mountains of eastern Kentucky. His mother always grew andcanned half runner beans. Here is how she fixed them. Very simple and easy.They are the best you will ever eat. Yes, they are cooked to death.”

A small piece of jowl bacon scoredApprox. 3 lbs of half runner beans, strung and broken in piecesOptional small amount of chopped onionPlace all in in a large pot and cover with water.

Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 or 6 hours. You can’t beat the flavor ofthese beans. Granted, the nutritional content of the beans is probablycooked away, but, they are really good. The jowl bacon is not usually eaten.Salt when served if necessary. No salt during cooking it tends to make thebeans tough. Small new potatoes may be added for the last 20 minutes orso. “Hope this works for Bill Kirby.”

Linda Raker’s beans

“We have grown half-runners in our garden every summer for severalyears. We like to can them so we can enjoy them over the winter. I normallycook a minimum of 2 quarts at a time. I rinse my canned beans well whilestill in the jars and fill with water to cover beans. I usually buy Hormel saltpork (NOT SLICED). Rinse pork well, and put in bottom of pan, fat sidedown. Add beans, and 1-2 tablespoons sugar. Cover, and cook slowly untilbeans are done, and water has cooked down somewhat. Do not add addi-tional water. Half-runners, like soup, taste better the second day!”

Extremely hot weather cancause serious health effectssuch as heat exhaustion, heatstroke or even death. Infantsand young children are espe-cially sensitive to the effects ofextreme heat and rely on oth-ers to keep them safe.

Know the risks and conse-quences of leaving kids alonein hot cars. Even great parentscan forget a child in the backseat, but caregivers who areunaccustomed to transportingchildren are especially proneto forgetting.

Think about the last timeyour routine was interrupted.Maybe you forgot something orwere afraid you might forgetsomething. Or maybe you de-cided to leave your child alonein the car, thinking “I’ll just run

into the storefor a minute.”In either case,it’s importantto know therisks and con-sequencesassociatedwith leavingkids in cars –especially hotcars. In just 10minutes, a car

can heat up 20 degrees Fahren-heit and cracking a windowdoes little to keep the car cool.

With temperatures in the60s, your car can heat up towell about 110 degrees. Achild’s body temperature canrise up to five times faster thanan adult’s and heatstroke canhappen when the temperature

is as low as 57 degrees outside.A child dies when his or herbody temperature reaches 107degrees.

The consequences of leav-ing a child in a parked car areheat-related injury or death ofa child, misdemeanor withfines as high as $500 and im-prisonment, or a felony offenseif bodily harm results fromleaving kids alone in a hot car.Currently, Ohio does not have alaw regarding leaving childrenalone in a car.

If you see a young childlocked in a parked car for morethan five minutes there arecertain steps as a bystanderyou should follow. First makesure the child is OK and re-sponsive, if not, call 911 imme-diately. If the child appears

OK, you should attempt tolocate the parents or have thefacility’s security or manage-ment page the car owner overthe PA system.

If there is someone withyou, one person should activelysearch for the parent while theother waits at the car. If thechild is not responsive andappears in great distress, at-tempt to get into the car toassist the child, even if thatmeans breaking a window. Ifthe child is in distress due toheat, get the child out of thecar as quickly as possible. Coolthe child rapidly (not in an icebath) by spraying the childwith cool water.

Five tips to protect infantsand children from heat-relatedillness:

1. Never leave infants orchildren in a parked car. Never.

2. Dress infants and chil-dren in loose, lightweight,light-colored clothing.

3. Make sure your child isdrinking more water than usualand don’t wait until they arethirsty to give them more.

4. Regularly apply sun-screen on your child as in-dicated on the package.

5. Seek medical care imme-diately if your child has symp-toms of a heat-related illness

Five tips to keep your child safe

LoriWatkinsCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

The Community Press’informative, comprehensiveMarch 2 analysis of theheroin crisis prompts thiscolumn.

We in the Ohio Legisla-ture passed laws in recentyears allowing police andfirst responders to adminis-ter Nalaxone (Narcan) tosave heroin overdose vic-tims’ lives, and that workwas the subject of the news-paper’s recent coverage.

That is only the first chap-ter. Our Hamilton Countystate legislators are busywriting the next chapters inour critical war against her-oin abuse.

I learned at a recent meet-ing with the Hamilton Coun-ty Heroin Task Force that itsbest investigative tool fordetermining who the heroindealers are is to enlist thevoluntary cooperation ofheroin users whose liveshave been saved by Narcaninjections. However, the fireservice in many communi-ties has refused to disclose tothe police the identity of thepeople to whom they haveadministered Narcan, citingfederal medical privacy laws(HIPAA). As a result, thepolice are disabled frominterviewing those victims tofind out who the upstreamdrug suppliers are.

My research disclosedthat the federal law containsa law enforcement exemp-tion where provided by statelaw. Therefore, I have suc-cessfully amended a pendingbill (House Bill 110) in theSenate to require the fireservice to tell law enforce-ment, on request, the identityof those to whom Narcan hasbeen administered. This willhelp police investigate andprosecute the heroin drugdealers.

Meanwhile, my HamiltonCounty colleagues, StateReps. Blessing and Dever,have won House passage of adifferent bill (HB 171) thatlowers the quantity of herointhat a heroin dealer mayhave in order for the dealer

to be prose-cuted as amajor drugoffender, withenhancedprison sen-tences appli-cable to thesedealers. Thisbill is pendingin the OhioSenate, and Isupport it.

Also, Findlay State Rep.Sprague and Hamilton Coun-ty State Rep. Driehaus haveteamed up to sponsor legisla-tion (HB 249) that providesimmunity from criminalprosecution to persons whocall 911 to report heroin over-dose cases and to the over-dose victims themselves.The immunity encouragespeople who may be highthemselves to call for helpand to save their friend orrelative’s life, and it onlyimmunizes them from lowlevel drug use or possessioncharges and only if theypromptly seek treatment fortheir drug problem.

ot only will this save lives,but also it will ensure thatthe revived drug users arestill alive to potentially helplaw enforcement catch the“dealers in death” who areproviding the heroin - whichis often laced with even moredangerous and addictivechemicals these days. Theimmunity for users only willbe extended twice - afterthat, the user probably doesneed to face the criminaljustice system.

I am working to ensurepassage of all these mea-sures. Lives are on the line.The crisis is too real. Thereis no time to waste. Yourreaders should take pride inknowing that the state legis-lators from your neighbor-hoods are working together,and with local law enforce-ment and addiction treat-ment providers, to battle thisscourge on multiple fronts.

William J. Seitz is thestate senator from Ohio’s8th District.

Ohio Legislatureis battlingheroin epidemic

Populist progressive Presi-dent Theodore Roosevelt’spolicy to thwart possible Euro-pean colonial ambitions in theWestern Hemisphere was“talk softly but carry a bigstick.”

A century later, the policyof the Obama Administrationis “wrap yourself in a rainbowbut carry a big stick.”

In 2013, President Obamaappointed Wally Brewster, atop LGBT fundraiser for hiscampaign, to be ambassador tothe Dominican Republic, asmall, predominantly CatholicCaribbean island nation. Brew-ster arrived with his LGBTactivist “husband,” Bob Sata-wake.

Brewster is one of six open-ly gay ambassadors to be ap-pointed by Obama.

On March 2, at the openingof a local LGBT chamber ofcommerce funded andlaunched by the Americanembassy, Alexandria Panehal,director of USAID, the agencythat dispenses U.S. foreign aid,promised $1 million of Amer-

ican taxpayerassistance tosupport thethe DominicanRepublicLGBT commu-nity and Do-minican Re-public politicalcandidateswho advanceLGBT policies.

The Domin-ican Republic’s Catholic bish-ops are protesting that Brew-ster and Panehal are infring-ing the Dominican Republic’ssovereignty. Brewster arro-gantly replied that the closerelationship between the twocountries and the huge Amer-ican investment in the Domin-ican Republic gives him everyright to impose the LGBTagenda, telling his Americancritics to “go to the embassyand give us back your visa.”

Strong-arming small coun-tries into accepting LGBT“rights” is an explicit elementof the Obama Administration’sneo-colonialistic foreign pol-

icy. Rest assured, Obama’spolicy is supported by Amer-ican corporate giants just ascolonialism by European kingswas the vehicle of mercantil-ists.

Dominicans rightfully aresensitive to American vio-lation of their sovereignty. In1916 and 1965, the U.S. militaryoccupied the Dominican Re-public, and from 1930 to 1961the U.S. supported the corrupttyrant, Rafael Trujillo, Secre-tary of State Cordell Hull re-portedly calling him “our sonof a bitch.”

Rejection of the violation ofits sovereignty is enshrined inthe Dominican Republic’sconstitution; however, Oba-ma’s application of the Marxistdictum “the end justifies themeans” ignores constitutions.

Remember the DominicanRepublic as U.S. corporateCEOs support the Obama pol-icy that transgender men beable freely to use women’srestrooms and locker rooms.

April 7 questionEarth Day is April 22. In what

“green” efforts do you partake?

“Last year for Earth Day Isaid I was going to plant a tree.This year I am actually going todo it. One of the things I likeabout living in the Cincy area isthe vast amount of trees wehave. I travel to a lot of places inthe country and not all placeshave this many trees. I alwaysseem to breathe better aroundtrees simply guessing at theamount of oxygen they producefor us each and every day dur-ing the growing season. Howev-er, the pollen season when theirbuds explode into leaves, Icould do without.”

M.J.F.

“We try to remember to useour cloth bags for the grocerystore, and succeed most of thetime. Also we carefully checkour plastic containers for the re-cycling bin. Passing on usedclothing and toys to a good char-ity is also something we prac-tice as well as purchasing sec-ond hand items if possible at agarage sale. For the lawn welook for environmentally

friendly items when available. Ithink we deserve an ‘A’ for envi-ronmental awareness.”

J.M.O.

“This time last year I submit-ted an editorial about the butter-fly garden I planned. It wasmore successful than I hoped itwould be. I researched andplanted a large garden withboth host plants and nectarplants. I was thrilled about theendangered Monarchs whocalled the 16 milkweed plantshome for the summer. But, Ialso had two types of swallow-tails, cabbage whites, differenttypes of skippers, great span-gled fritillarys, pearl crescents,red admirals, common buck-eyes, red spotted purple admi-rals, and summer azures. There

were also many large bumble-bees as well as smaller bees.

“We decided that the frontyard would be well groomed;but, the backyard would havedandelions, violets, springbeauties, clover and other so-called weeds in the grass for thebees and butterflies. You canhave all these while still mow-ing as long as the mower is set alittle higher. We let another partof backyard grow. The tall grasswas home to a host of insects. Itwas fun walking through the‘meadow’ and finding prayingmantis, grasshoppers, etc...

“This year I am expandingand clearing an area about 350square feet to be sown withwildflowers. I will also plant afew corn stalks, tomatoes, andwatermelon. I also hope the ma-son bee house and the bat housethat were recently added willhave tenants this summer.

“I am fortunate to have twothings that make all this possi-ble, a hard-working husbandand a two-acre lot. But, anyonecan do the research and make alarge or small area attractive toa specific type of butterfly or asmany as you can.

AMELIA – Kendall Kai-ser was part of a SouthernBuckeye Conference-Amer-ican Division softball cham-pionship as a freshman andshe’d like to repeat it as asenior.

Ditto for Amelia HighSchool coach Kelley Throck-morton who has seven sen-iors on this spring’s squadthat have considerable var-sity experience. Five juniorsand a sophomore round outthe team.

The Lady Barons areracking up some victories,but their coach would like tosee a little more.

“We’re just a little incon-sistent at times,” Throck-morton said. “We are stillwinning, but we still havesome work to do if we want toget to our potential.”

The season started with aloss to a pretty good MountNotre Dame team before theLady Barons reeled off astring of wins. Catcher Mag-gie Block’s bat has beencoming around and she re-cently homered in the samegame as pitcher KendallKaiser.

“When she (Kaiser) hitsthe ball, it’s very solid,”Throckmorton said. “Mostof my girls when they hit it,they hit it hard. We don’t hitlittle bloopers.”

Throckmorton has con-templated bunting morewith her team, but as a solidswinger herself, prefers thebat hitting the ball with pur-pose. She believes her teamwill have to manufacturemore offense to succeed in

any postseason games.“It’s now or never,”

Throckmorton said.“They’ve got the experi-ence. It’s up to them to pro-duce and perform.”

For extra motivation, theLady Barons get solid advicefrom their first base coach,Bob Reynolds (father ofThrockmorton).

“I have mostly seniors,”Throckmorton said. “Bob’ssaying is, ‘Are you finishedor are you going to finish?’ ”

Kaiser is the main pitch-er, but sophomore NicoleBrown has thrown somegames and will likely be thehurler the next two seasons.Amelia’s reliable leadoff hit-ter is Samantha Lee, a trans-fer from last year. If Lee setsthe table, Block and seniorsKyleigh Schultz and Kaiserare in charge of bringing heraround.

Ahead in the schedule is ahome game with ClermontNortheastern April 13, thena trip to the Blue Ash SportsCenter to play UrsulineApril 14. The league is therefor the taking.

MT. WASHINGTON – TheRockets went down to Georgialooking for some games to win.They weren’t in a bind becausethey were never way behind.

Instead, they won four oftheir five games in the PeachState. The only game McNicho-las lost was a 3-0 decisionagainst Valdosta, Ga., the teamthat won the tournament.

They then proceeded to keepthings rolling against AlterApril 4. McNick stung balls allover the field and got anothernice outing from ace pitcherSam Browning. It all added upto a 10-0 rout of their foes fromthe GCL-Coed North.

McNick had a 3-0 cushion af-ter the first frame and tackedon more in the later innings.

“We did the same thing inGeorgia where we jumped outto leads early in the game,”Rockets skipper John Christ-mann said. “It sets the tone ofthe game and that’s what I’mtrying to get these guys to do.They’re doing it.”

Down in Georgia, Browningtwirled a gem, throwing a sev-en-inning shutout in a 1-0 winagainst Greenbriar Christian,the No. 1 rated team in Virginia.

Browning kept Knights hit-

ters off-balance and even gotout of a couple tight situationswith runners on the corners.Brendan Snyder came out of thebullpen to shut Alter down inthe sixth.

After the game, Christmanncalled Browning his “big-gamepitcher.”

“I like taking the ball in biggames,” Browning said. “I likethe challenge.”

Three runs would have beenall the Rockets needed, but theydidn’t stop there.

In the bottom of the fourth,McNick loaded the bases with

senior shortstop Will Vogelge-sang looking to do damage. Hechopped a pitch to the first base-man, who hurried a throw to-ward home plate. The throw gotaway from the catcher, allowingtwo runners to score.

Later in the inning, with run-ners on second and third, AdamHisch knocked a pitch throughthe left side to plate two morerunners. McNick led 7-0 afterfour.

In the bottom of the sixth, Vo-gelgesang struck again. Thistime, it was clean single past thesecond basemen, plating theeighth run of the contest. Laterin the frame, Hisch smacked an-other pitch through the infieldto bring home two more Rock-ets, bringing the game to its con-clusion.

“In Georgia, Adam had twofour-hit games and one three-hitgame,” Christmann said. “He’sspraying the ball all over and isa perfect No.2 hole hitter. He’splaying college football, but I’mbiased and think he should playcollege baseball. He’s definitelygood enough. He didn’t play forus last year and I know he’s tick-led pink to be back. I’m loving it,too.”

The Rockets beat Alter thesecond time around, 9-4 on April6. Jordan Ritter picked up thewin.

SHORT HOPS

Continued from Page 1B

The day after Jim Her-man, a 1996 St. XavierHigh School graduatewho went on the Univer-sity of Cincinnati, won hisfirst career PGA Tourevent Sunday at the ShellHouston Open – whichearned him a spot thisweek in the Masters –Herman called his almamater with more goodnews.

St. Xavier’s 2015 Divi-sion I state championshipgolf team had filed into aroom Monday morning topick up its state champi-onship rings when thephone rang.

“We were sitting in theroom and all the adultswere extremely excited,”said senior Domenic Mar-icocchi. “We got to talk to(Jim Herman) on thephone … he invited us tocome down (to Augusta)for Tuesday’s practiceround. He gave us somevery encouraging words.”

Senior Kirran Mago-wan, who will golf at UCnext fall, said, “That analum would think abouthis roots like that andwant to give back. Havingan alum be able to play inthe Masters, it seems pos-sible (for us to do thesame). It’s kind of like agoal that’s within reach ifwe work hard and that’swhat he told us, anything’s

possible if you workhard.”

Without hesitation, Ma-gowan, Maricocchi, Mi-chael Prebles, CameronFrazier, Joey McCarthyand Zachary Pavlin – theBombers’ top-six whoplayed for the title last fall– piled into a van with as-sistant athletic directorNick VanZile and princi-pal Terry Tyrell and drove81⁄2 hours to Augusta,Georgia.

But they wouldn’t bethe only Bombers on thecourse Tuesday.

“Some of the membersof (St. Xavier’s 1995 statechampionship team thatHerman played on) werewalking around with us,”said Magowan. “We got tomeet some really coolalumni today.”

On the third tee box,Maricocchi said they metHerman, who was pairedwith Sergio Garcia on thefront and Patrick Reed onthe back.

They shook hands,thanked him for the op-portunity and took a phototogether.

The Bombers said itwas an inspirational dayall around.

“Being able to seesomeone I’ve met before,who went to St. X, play inthe Masters … it reallygave me and all my team-mates the hope that wecould do the same,” saidMaricocchi, who will golfat Dayton as a preferredwalk-on next season.

Joan Whitakercoached St. Xavier’s golfteam from 1980-1997.

“Did I ever think (Jim)

would go pro and one daybe playing in the Masters?No,” said Whitaker. “I’vehad some other playersthat had that as a goal and,of course, none of themreally made it except forJim.

“He has all the positivequalities of a good golfer.He’s hard-working, dedi-cated, a gentleman …what you see in the inter-views on TV is who hereally is. I’m very, veryproud of him.”

Whitaker, who will beat the Masters Saturdaywith her husband becauseof the kindness of Her-man, said she wasn’t at allsurprised by Herman’s in-vitation to St. Xavier’sgolfers.

“Just a wonderful ges-ture that he made there,”she said. “Those kids haveto just be thrilled … he’sjust showing so much ofhis love for the game andhis inspiration for theyounger players.”

Magowan and Mari-cocchi said it’s a daythey’ll never forget.

“Not a lot of kids gettheir high school to sendthem to the Masters,” Ma-gowan laughed. “I thinkwatching (the Masters) onTV doesn’t do it justice.It’s really something spe-cial.”

Herman, paired withSteven Bowditch, willplay in the first groupThursday at 8:20 a.m. andFriday at 11:16 a.m.

Herman is paired withPhil Mickelson and DavisLove III for the MastersPar-3 Contest. The grouptees off at 12:28.

When buying a usedcar its important to re-member state laws re-quire that you receivetitle to the vehicle within30 to 45 days from thedate of purchase. If youdon’t receive the titleyou are entitled to askfor your money back andreturn the vehicle.

In fact, Ohio law saysif the dealer won’t returnyour money you have aright to file a claim withthe state and get themoney back from a spe-cial state fund.

A Cincinnati-areawoman named Myra

encoun-tered sucha problemwhen sheand herboyfriendbought aused car inKentucky.Althoughthere’s nospecial

state fund in Kentucky,she was still entitled toask for her money back.Myra writes, “When Itook it to our local Bu-reau of Motor Vehiclesto receive our license

plates we were told thecar had a lien on it. Theytold us the car got repos-sessed from its previousowner and that it wasstill in their name.”

Myra contacted thedealer immediately, butsays she didn’t get thetitle to the vehicle untilfour months later. Inaddition, she says, some-one had forged her nameon the paperwork. In-stead of taking legalaction, which she saysshe now realizes sheshould have done, sheaccepted the forged

paperwork and got thelicense plates.

Recently, she says,when she was just a fewweeks behind in sendingin her car payment, hervehicle was repossessed.Myra says she’s toldshe’ll have to pay $20,000to get back that 2007vehicle.

The used car dealershe bought it from hassince closed and thelender who bought thecar loan is seeking themoney.

Clearly, there is some-thing very wrong with

this deal in which repos-session of a 9-year-oldvehicle is costing$20,000 to get back.

She says she and herboyfriend had neverbought a car before sorelied on the dealer foreverything. That’s one ofthe worst things you cando when buying a vehi-cle.

To protect yourself,you need to have all thepurchase paperworkreviewed by a lawyer oraccountant before yousign. That way you willbe able to review and

understand all the termsand conditions of thedeal before you agree –without the possibility ofa high-pressure sales-man hanging over you.

Had Myra done thisthere’s a good chanceshe wouldn’t have endedup being told she has topay significantly morethan the vehicle is worthin order to get it back.
