OAKLEY — A dispute over avacant board seat led to a heat-ed discussion during the MayOakley Community Councilmeeting.
Somuch so that one residentsuggested the board needed “atime out.”
Tensions began to flarewhen board President Craig
Rozen said appli-cations will con-tinue to be ac-cepted for a seatvacated by TomFrey. Boardmembers con-tend candidateMark Rogers,owner of Habits
Cafe and the 20th CenturyTheater, had already been vet-ted for the position.
Further,board memberssay this wasclearly indicatedin the meetingminutes for boththe March 17 ex-ecutive sessionand the April 1generalmeeting.
Rozen, though, saidFreyhadnot officially resigned at thatpoint.Hesaidhereceivedares-
ignation letter April 18.The minutes for the March
17 executive session state,“Tom Frey announced his res-ignation from the Board effec-tive 4/1/14.”
Board Vice President DaveSchaff said both Rogers andcandidate Kenny McNutt hadbeen vetted to fill the positionsof Frey as well as Megan Mar-shall, who had also resignedfrom the board.
McNutt’s appointment to theboard was made during theMay meeting. He will fill Mar-shall’s seat.
However, at the time Frey’sopen seat remained unfilled.
The situation escalated fur-ther when some of the councilmembers said Rozen was re-fusing to approve the afore-mentionedmeetingminutes.At

Seldom is there a chance likethis: design and create a newgarden in one of Cincinnati’slargest parks.
When the Cincinnati Parksremoved dozens of dead or dy-ing trees and shrubs last year, itleft a large, barren space at theendofAultPark’smain lawn,op-posite the pavilion. That’s whenthe parks department turned toa group of dedicated volunteersfor help, and they seized the op-portunity to turn that blank can-vas into theGreatLawnGarden.
It was a grand plan with a$30,000 price tag, but with sup-port from local neighbors, theGreat Lawn Garden is takingshape.
“We really intended it as acommunity fundraising effort,and it was a community-sup-ported project,” said Rudy Sie-gel, aboardmemberfor theAultPark Advisory Council, a non-profit organization that helps
preserve and improve the park.The advisory council didn’t
turn to donors who in the pastgave large sums of money, Sie-gel said, and instead relied onmany smaller donations to raisethe $15,000 needed to match thepark district’s contribution.
Much of the pre-plantingwork – regrading, drainage andirrigation – was finished thiswinter, and theCincinnati Parksinstalled a new fence on top ofthe curved wall to keep visitorssafe from the steep drop at theback of the new garden.
Ault Park horticulturalistDave Roberts created the de-sign to reflect some of the his-torical plantings in the 224-acrepark.
Flowering cherry trees addsplashes of color, holly busheswith waxy leaves bring texture,and a variety of long-bloomingperennials ensure there will besomething to enjoy all season,

The market has grown
from12 vendors in the be-ginning to more than 40.

habits,” said Williams,whoisalsoaresidentofIn-dian Hill.
Williams said as in pre-vious years, vendors willsell organic and “sustaina-bly grown” fruits and veg-etables.
The market also has awide variety of otheritems including meat,cheese, honey, bread andbaked goods.

The minutes wereeventually approved.
“It’s about integrity,”
said boardmember PiperFennimore Rogers, whois married to Mark Rog-ers. “Why is councilblocking the appointmentof the second candidate?
“This shouldn’t havebeen a point of conten-tion. It should have beenstandard operating pro-cedure.”
Oakley resident DianeRupp also expressedfrustration.
“He changes therules,” she said referringto Rozen. “(This) was set-tled and now suddenlyhe’s getting more peopleto run.”
This isn‘t the first timethe election and appoint-ment of board memberson the Oakley Communi-ty Council has been dis-puted. Some residentsquestioned the votingprocedure in 2011. Coun-cil created an ElectionReviewCommittee short-ly after.
Rozen said he takesownership for what hecalled “a chaotic meet-ing.”
However, he said thematter could have beenaddressed in a bettermanner.
“I believe it is possible
to reach common groundwithout attacking or de-grading another,” he said.“Weareadults and shouldbe able to get along.”
Rozen said he believesthe matter can be re-solved.
Board member BrianFerry said he is also opti-mistic a resolution can bereached.
“I think it’s a questionof procedure,” he said. “Ithink there was somemisunderstanding (of)the process.
“Weareona trajectory(toward) resolving thisand moving forward.”

Roberts said.“It adds to the vista as
you look out from the pa-vilion on our borrowedlandscape,” he said, not-ing that the park offers360-degree views of Cin-
cinnati.At the end ofMay, Ault
Park supporters and gar-deners with an adoptedplot at the park will helpplant the rest of the flow-ers and the vision will fi-nally come to life.

OAKLEY — The OakleyBall on the Square eventmay once again ring in anew year.
Although event orga-nizer Mark Rogers is notready to say it will defin-itively return, he is opti-mistic.
The Ballin theSquare is aNew Year’sEve cele-bration inthe Oakleybusinessdistrict.
“We aretrying to gather a teamand trying to find a key
sponsor,” said Rogers,who is owner of the 20thCentury Theater. “That isa critical thing.”
Earlier this year, Rog-ers had said resuming theevent was a possibility.Thiswasconfirmedbyhiswife, Piper FennimoreRogers, who is a boardmember of the OakleyCommunity Council, dur-
ing council’s April meet-ing.
“Wee had such an out-pouring of interest fromthe community,” she said.“(People) were just so en-thusiastic about resurrec-ting it for this comingNew Year.”
The cost of putting onthe event, which includesvendors, outdoor per-
formers, fireworks and aball drop, remains thebig-gest consideration.
Previous Ball on theSquare celebrations costbetween $36,000 and$37,000, yet theeventgen-erates about $18,000.
Mark said the costs in-volved were a primaryreason the event was notconducted this past NewYear’s.
Piper said the OakleyChamber of Commercewill likely be involvedwith the event, whichwould be the fourth Ballon the Square.
“We are looking to seewhere we are in terms offunding,” she said. “Eventhough the community isclamoring to have it backwe still need to find asponsor or group of spon-sors.”
Piper, though, saidthere are no plans to scaleback on the event.
As in previous years,the event would includetwo ball drops from thetower of the 20th Century
Theater. The early por-tion of the event would begeared toward familiesand younger children.
Craig Rozen, boardpresident of the OakleyCommunity Council, saidhe is optimistic area or-ganizations will offertheir support.
“I can envision numer-ous organizations inter-ested in continuing whathas become a great tradi-tion within Oakley,” hesaid.
Piper said a charitywill also be chosen to re-ceive donations generat-ed from the event.

Thanks toa travelingexhib-it that was on display at St. Ur-sula Academy in March,“From Bystander to Upstan-der: The Power of One DuringandAfter theHolocaust,” eachstudent was able to reflectupon her potential role as a“Bystander” or an “Upstan-der.”
“From Bystander to Up-stander:ThePowerofOnedur-ing and after theHolocaust” isa traveling exhibit created bythe Center for Holocaust andHumanity Education (CHHE)as a permanent offering forstudents, educators, and com-munity groups.
It explores the potentialeach of us has to make a posi-tive difference in our commu-nities. By studying the com-plexityofchoicespeople facedduring the Holocaust, one canalso explore the impact thesechoices had on other individ-uals.
St. Ursula Academy teach-er David Tonnis, who broughtthe exhibit to St. Ursula, feltthis message was important toshare with his students.
“By exploring the exhibit,students have the chance to in-vestigate the role of personalchoice when confronting actsof hatred. Atrocities and geno-cide do not and cannot happenovernight. They can only oc-curwhenpeople see acts of ha-tred being committed, wheth-er it be violence, hate speech,or even a prejudiced joke, andchoose to remain indifferentor to do nothing – to be a by-stander.”
The exhibit shows how theHolocaust was made possible,not only by perpetrators, butby the individuals, neighbors,religious communities, media,and international communi-ties thatsawwhatwasgoingonand decided it was too risky totry to put a stop to it.
The exhibit also shows howa few people, upstanders, sawwhat was happening, under-stood the risk it put on theirown lives, and chose to do
something, thereby rescuingmany people.
“These lessons are vitallyimportant to us today and stu-dents have a chance to reflecton the impact of every choicethey make,” said Tonnis. “At atime where the world is con-nected likeneverbefore, thereis such a great opportunity toeasily learnabout andstandupagainst injustice, but also agreat opportunity to choose toremain indifferent.”
StudentMackenzie Dolle ofHyde Park is among the stu-dents who spent time studyingthe exhibit. “I gained a greaterappreciation for those whowere upstanders during theHolocaust and for those whohad the courage to stand upagainst the Nazis. This travel-ing exhibit has raised aware-ness of the Holocaust and hashelped spread the message ofmaking sure that this genocidedoesn't happen again.”

Ursula Academy students Lauren Massa, of Anderson Township, andMackenzie Dolle, of Hyde Park, study the panel about “TheResponsibility to Support” featured in the traveling exhibit “FromBystander to Upstander: The Power of One during and after theHolocaust,” which was recently on display at St. UrsulaAcademy.THANKS TOMISHA BELL

As a result, she decided toattend Furman University inGreenville, S.C. Her plans areto play basketball and runtrack.
“It was kind of tough be-cause I hadn’t visited all of theschools,” Darks said. “After Ivisited all of them, I decided Iwould make a decision aftertheAprilexposureperiod.Iputall the schools together andFurman was the best one.”
ThePaladinsweresecondinthe Southern Conference andhave several promisingrecruits on thewayprior to thearrival of Miss Darks in 2015.
“I expect them to win theirconference before I even getthere,” Darks said.
At South Carolina’s oldestprivateuniversity,Darksplanson exploring internationalstudies, engineering and/orpoverty studies. On the court,she figures she’ll be a wing asthe school has some post play-ers coming in.
“They have really good aca-demics and academics is a bigthing for me,” Darks said.“Even if I had the chance, Idon’t plan on playing profes-sionally for that long. I reallywant toget toanactualcareer.”
Ifallgoeswell, shecouldbe-
come the most famous Cincin-natian associatedwith Furmansince former Bengals coachSamWyche.
Thanks to her long strides,Darks has also become an ac-complished 400-meter runnersince coming to Walnut Hillsand plans to continue her one-lap prowess on the collegiatetracks.Ayearago, shewasdis-trict and regional champ at the400 and 11th at the state meet.
“She’splayedbasketballherwhole life,” track coachRobin-son said. “She didn’t run trackuntil her freshman year.”
Darks has also dashed in re-lays and the 200 meters. Lastsummer, she was part of theschool’s sprintmedleynationalchampions. Itwas thereRobin-son took note of her academicdedication.
“Whenwewent tonationals,she was already working onsummer homework,” Robin-son said. “She knew she had abusy summer with us going tonationals plus basketball tour-naments. She wanted to get ahead start on it. You don’t seethat at every school.”
Darks currently leads theECC in the 400 and Robinsonhopes her previous experienceat the statemeet will allow herto “Sursum Ad Summum”when challenged.

HYDEPARK— If a child’s firstwords are any indication of itsfuture, Summit Country Dayhas aprophet of biblical propor-tions on its hands.
“Ball” was the first word tocross the lips of senior DougCompton. He’s been playingbaseball as long as he can re-member and is the undisputedleader for the Silver Knights.He went past 100 hits and 100runs scored for his career earli-er this season and is just a cou-ple of runsbatted in fromcross-ing the centurymark there, too.
He also pitches for the SilverKnights, averaging a strikeoutan inning.
“The best of Doug Comptonis not on the baseball field,”Summit head coachTriffonCal-los said. “I’ve coached somegreat players - andDougwill godown as one of the best I’ve hadin 10 years here - but that’s just
playing. He’s that good and bet-ter as a young man.
“He came in here a 5-foot-7,125-pound kid as a freshmanand he’s leaving a man. He’sgrown to 5-foot-11, maybe 180pounds. He’s a true leader. Ev-erything he does is team first.”
Callos cited several exam-ples.
“The fact that he’s hit any-where in our lineup from lead-off to cleanup over his fouryears speaks to his versatilityand willingness to adjust towhateversituationweneedhimto fill.
“Doug is up there as one ofthe twobest outfielders I’vehad- great range, arm, decisionmaking, getting a jump on theball. But where has he playedthis year most of the time?Shortstop. Because we had aneed there.”

Delta changes makeneighborhooddangerous
Thanks for your April 30front-page article titled:“Have lanechangesmadeDel-ta Avenue less safe?”
We and our neighbors givea resounding yes to that ques-tion. Delta Avenue has indeedbeen made unsafe and con-gested to thepoint ofdivertingtraffic to other residentialstreets. We are extremely fu-rious with the Mount LookoutCommunity Council for lend-ing its support for the lane
changes, even after residentsraised loud objections whensuch lane changes were initia-lly proposed.
We and any number offriends nowavoidMt. LookoutSquarewheneverwecan.Whydidn’t we learn from similarexperiences with such mis-guided city planning and engi-neering? Similar reactions tolane changes in Hyde Parkwere reversed only after resi-dents complained loudly andinsisted on restoring the time-tested lane configuration.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
There are many whomourn the recent passing offormer Unites States Ambas-sador John E. Dolibois and Iam one of them.
I had the pleasure ofspending time with Ambassa-dor Dolibois during his lateryears at his home in Cincin-nati. We had a few things in
common suchas our almamater, MiamiUniversity,and our mutu-al brother-hood in theAlpha Chapterof Beta ThetaPi.
For thosethat are notfamiliar withJohn’s legacy,
he was a former U.S. Ambas-sador to his native county ofLuxembourg (appointed byPresident Reagan in 1981) andwas the last American survi-vor of a team that interrogat-ed top-ranking Nazis for theNuremberg Trials. He wasinstrumental in the devel-opment of the Miami Univer-sity Dolibois European Centerin Luxembourg, and in 1987,he received the Cross of theGrand Ducal Order of theCrown of Oak, Luxembourg’shighest decoration.
John had a very warm spir-it. I recall during our last visithe shared his Luxembourgwine, told me about the vari-ous paintings that adjournedhis living room, all painted byLuxembourg artists, and un-veiled handwritten mementosthat were sent to him and hisbeloved wife, Winnie, by vari-ous state officials.
Time stood still as he toldstory after story… The onethat sticks out most was anincident involving a hidden orsecret telephone that in thosedays was an Ambassador’sdirect line to the oval office –John’s telephone was hiddenbehind a curtain in his officebuilding. He recalled that his
wife, Winnie, was cleaningand accidentally bumped thephone off the cradle. Whenshe picked up to her surprisewas President Reagan on theother end, “Winnie... is thatyou?” As John recounted,President Reagan was veryunderstanding and lightheart-ed in what was certainly anembarrassing moment forWinnie.
Ambassador Dolibois re-marked that his life had beena “Pattern of Circles,” return-ing to the same familiarplaces and people after a peri-
od of absence, and that iswhere he drew inspiration forthe name of his autobiogra-phy. John never forgot wherehe came from or the peopleand family that helped inalong the way. He is loved byhis fellow Miami Alumni,Beta Theta Pi brothers, andall else who were impacted byhis warm spirit, thoughtfuladvice and selfless devotion.
John E. Dolibois will bemissed, but never forgotten.
Zachary T. Haines is a resident ofSymmes Township.

I grew up on a small farmone mile north of Fosters,along the Little Miami Riv-er.
We raised cattle, some-times having as many as 200head to feed. So we grewgrasses to make hay andpart of our work involved
cutting, rak-ing, baling,loading wag-ons beforehauling tothe barn andstacking thebales.
I wasgiven thehonor offeedingthese cattle
twice a day, in the morningand early evening. I loved it.Have you ever heard thesound of a herd of cattlemunching hay together?
We also grew corn andsoybeans for feed. Lastly,we rented another 80 acresto pasture our animals. Sowe paid for feed eitherthrough our sweat equity orwith cash. We got no freefeed, unlike some ranchersin the west. So our competi-tion had a leg up on us get-ting the benefit of free orlow cost feed and the abilityto run roughshod over theenvironment while we, asowners of our propertywere duty bound to act asgood stewards of the land.
Our last year was 1966.We had to sell. Grandpa hadretired from his day job andwe just weren’t making anymoney raising beef.
Have you ever had yourwhole way of life sold outfrom under you?
Nowadays, we have adifferent kind of cattleman.Like Cliven Bundy, whorecently led a standoffagainst federal officials.Some calls them the sage-brush rebellion. Others callthem deadbeats and welfareranchers. They call them-selves patriots.
We never thought of our-selves in that way. We werejust plain folks, working theland and caring for our crit-ters. We never hurt anyone.
We never threatened any-one. We never aimed ourweapons on anyone.
I know a few people who Iwould call patriots, evenheroes. Not one would speakof themselves in suchterms.
I witnessed a news videorecently of a self-pro-claimed patriot with ascoped gun high above acrowd of people in Nevadaand aiming at governmentemployees who worked forthe Bureau of Land Manage-ment.
Like farmers everywherethere were times when wewere opposed to govern-ment policy. But to be pre-pared to take a person’s lifein such an event was un-thinkable to us. Real patri-ots don’t act that way!
Farming or ranchingrequire both grit and horse-sense. Having one withoutthe other will get you in bigtrouble.

May 7 questionWhat drives you crazy about
other drivers?
“There are a few habits ofother drivers that bugme: Oneis tailgating i.e. following tooclosely behind me when I amgoing the proper speed.
“The other is the lack of us-ing a turn signal.
“The final one would bethose driving with out insur-ance. It seems that half the ac-cidents are with drivers whodo not have the proper insur-ance. The Ohio DMV needs tobe authorized to check for andactually see an insurance cardfrom anyone getting licensetags or a driver’s license re-newal. Go Figure!”
T.D.T.
“1. Driverswho don’t stop atcrosswalks. Pedestrians who
don’t use crosswalks.“2. Drivers who turn right
right, then immediatelywait toturn left into a corner proper-ty. They could have continuedstraight and just made oneright turn without obstructingtraffic.
“3. Drivers that block an in-tersection when the light isgreen. If therewasn’t room foryou to clear the intersection,justwait until thenext light cy-
cle. This also leads to the otherannoying drivers that take thisopening to make a ‘right turnon red,’ taking advantage ofthe driver waiting until therewas room for them to advance.If everyone would just be a bitmore patient, traffic shouldflow better as designed and ifyou don’t make that trafficlight cycle your car will befirst in line for the next greenlight.”
“4. Two way left turn lanes(chicken lanes or suicidelanes) are not passing lanes.”

Here we were, wishingfor warmer weather andit finally arrived. Thatmeans asparagus, andlots of it.
Everyday I goout to theasparaguspatch andharvest acouple ofpounds atleast. Andit’s not abig patch.
With allthe other
spring chores, like tillingand planting and sowing,there isn’t a lot of time toplan for or prepare sup-per. Luckily, the “girls”/hens are keeping up withour demand of eggs, sobetween that and theabundance of asparagus,supper is a no brainer.
Asparagus baconquiche
Leftovers microwavewell. The ends of aspara-gus are tough. Aftercleaning, snap tough endsoff. Use for soup. There’sa natural “break” be-tween the tough and ten-der parts.
9 or 10 inch pie panlined with pie dough
8 slices bacon, cut intosmall pieces
8 ounce or so aspara-gus, cut on angle in 1 inchor so pieces
4 large eggs, roomtemperature
2 cups half and half ormilk
About 1 teaspoon saltand half teaspoon pepper
1 heaping cup shred-ded cheese or more
Preheat oven to 375.Saute bacon and re-
move. In remaining drip-pings, sauté asparagus acouple of minutes only,just until it turns brightgreen. Remove from panwith slotted spoon.
Whisk eggs with milk.Add seasonings, cheese,bacon and asparagus.Pour into pie pan. Bake40-45 minutes untilpuffed all around. Thatmeans it’s done. If you’renot sure, insert a knife aninch from the edge. If itcomes out clean, you’regood to go.
Tips from Rita’skitchen:
If crust browns toomuch before quiche isdone, make a “collar” offoil around the crust.
Asparagus: spearsof protection
Asparagus is a power-house when it comes tofolic acid, necessary forblood cell formation and ahealthy liver. Pregnantwomen especially need toget enough folic acid forhealthy babies. Aspara-gus is also low in sodium,a good source of potassi-um for healthy hearts andmuscles, and a goodsource of fiber. Oh, andonemore thing: it’s low incalories and has zero fator cholesterol.

The Terrace Park of-fice of Distinctive Smilesrecently provided freeprimary dental care formore than a dozen Marie-mont and Milford schoolkids during the AmericanDental Association (ADA)Give Kids a Smile Day.
Distinctive Smiles isthe dental practice of Dr.Drake Tollefson and Dr.Daniel Kelley.
This was the fifth con-secutive year the dentistsand staff have participat-ed in the ADA one-dayevent to provide dentalhealth care for under-served children in thecommunity.
School nurses inMarie-mont, Milford, and Love-land schools coordinatewith the dental practice toservestudentsintheirTer-race Park and Lovelanddental offices.
“They catch the stu-dents who fall through thecracks; that don’t havedental insurance or Medi-caid,” said Holly McCor-mick, Mariemont CitySchool district health aide.
“This provides a ser-vice these children proba-bly wouldn’t receive.”
With thehelpofMcCor-mick and Pattison Ele-mentary school nurseDianeKleinforeachof thelastfiveyears,severalstu-dents havebeen able to re-ceive dental health careduring the GKAS event.
Theschoolnursesworkclosely with parents andschool administrators toidentifyqualifiedstudentsfor the program. Marie-montschoolsevenprovidebus transportation andMcCormick accompaniesthe kids to the dentist of-fice.
Each of the kids re-ceives a thorough exam oftheir mouth, teeth, andgums; a full cleaning and aplan for future care andtreatmentwiththedentist.The kids get a gift bag of“healthy treasures” withtoothbrush, toothpaste,floss, and some fun stufftoo.
“It makes me so happythat Dr. Tollefson, thisneighborhood dentist, isoffering this service,”Mc-Cormack said.
“This is a national day.It’s not just somethinghe’sdoing.” For some of thekids, like Mariemont Ele-mentary third-graderCharly Feightner, this wasbrand new.
For second-grader Mi-chael Curran and some
others, this is not the firsttime taking part in theGKAS event here. He saidhe’s been here before andlikes the new toothbrushbest of all the “healthytreasures” in his gift bag.
“This was new,” saidCharly, who said her olddentist was in a hospital.“They scraped my teethand cleaned them, and putfluoride on them to makethemminty.”
The Distinctive Smilesdentists will provide freefollowup treatment to anyof the kids who need it af-ter the Give Kids a Smileevent.
