Fundraising eff orts launched for Batavia graduate after brain injury Shelby Dermer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Friends have launched fundraising eff orts for 2017 Batavia High School graduate and former baseball player Nathan Eckert.

Eckert, 22, was jogging near his house June 3, 2021, when his heart stopped and he went into cardiac arrest.

Though a driver passing by - who happened to be a nurse - found him, started compressions and called 911 immediately, according to a release, he still lost oxygen for a time, resulting in a severe anoxic brain injury.

A GoFundMe for medical expenses has currently raised more than $23,000 of a $25,000 goal: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-for-nathaneckert Eckert, who worked as a welder, was initially treated at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. On July 7, the GoFundMe announced Eckert had been moved to the Shepherd Center in Atlanta, Georgia, which specializes in brain injuries.

"This is going to be a long, long road, but we aren't giving up on him," wrote Melissa McElfresh, mother of one of Eckert's best friends, in a press release.

Eckert played varsity baseball at Batavia from 2016-2017.

According to a press release, friends are planning a series of fundraising events to off set the Eckert family's expenses. Medical bills, housing expenses and treatments not covered by insur-

Wonder the dog injured at Biden town hall.

(Don’t worry, she’s ok.)

Sharon Coolidge Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Danielle Lippi brings her service dog Wonder everywhere – even to a CNN town hall featuring president Joe Biden.

Wonder is part American Foxhound, part American Staff ordshire Terrier, and a cancer survivor. She garnered the president’s attention during the July 21 town hall at Mount Saint Joseph University in suburban Cincinnati, making for a cute cameo on national television.

After the town hall, Wonder was stepped on as the crowd departed, resulting in a trip to the veterinarian to repair ripped stitches. But that didn’t dim

Biden spotted Wonder at Lippi’s feet even before CNN moderator Don Lemon called on her.

“You’ve got a great dog there, kid,” Biden told her.

Wonder was dressed for the occasion in her 4th of July collar, which is red, white and blue.

Lemon then introduced Lippi as a student at the university, who is a Republican.

“But your dog is a Democrat, I can tell,” Biden said.

Cincinnati, the ‘city within a park,’ ranks 8th in the nation for parks Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Locals already know that Cincinnati is a great city for parks.

Now, everyone else knows thanks to a new study from the Trust for Public Land that ranked Cincinnati eighth in the nation for parks according to the trust's ParkScore index. The ranking included 100 cities in the U.S. The study found that 87% of residents in Cincinnati live within a 10-minute walk to a park. The national average is 55%.

"Everyone in Cincinnati knows how special our parks are to the city, and it is

great to have this validated by a signifi cant national organization who specializes in this work," the Board of Park Commissioners said. "We remain thankful and humbled to serve as stewards of this wonderful system of parks."

The board said the city has been described as "a city within a park." The study found that 16% of Cincinnati's city land is used for parks and recreation.

The national median is 15%.

Cincinnati is home to 5,000-plus acres of city parklands including 70 neighborhood parks, 34 natural areas, two arboretums, and 65 miles of hiking and bridle trails, the board said.

The ParkScore index measures park systems according to fi ve categories: ac-

cess, investment, amenities, acreage and equity.

Here's how Cincinnati scored on those categories: h 80/100 for access. h 89/100 for investment. h 90/100 for amenities. h 53/100 for acreage. h 68/100 for equity.

In terms of equity, the study found that residents in neighborhoods of color have access to 15% less park space per person than the city median and 7% less than those in white neighborhoods.

Neighborhoods with multiple races had 4% more access than the city median, the index found.

charge of aggravated murder in the shooting death of Robert “Bobby” Farrell, Jr. of New Richmond.

The man indicted, 23-year-old Keyanta Gardner, also faces two counts of conspiracy to commit murder and one count each of felony murder, gross abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence, according to a news release from Clermont County Prosecutor Mark Tekulve.

If convicted of all the charges related to Farrell's killing, Tekulve said, Gardner faces the possibility of life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Tekulve said Farrell, 23, was reported missing by his family on July 6 and found dead in Clermont County six days later.

The prosecutor said law enforcement ultimately determined that Gardner conspired with 23-year-old Christian

Beasley of Cincinnati to kill Farrell.

Beasley was arrested on a charge of murder on July 22, Tekulve said.

He said both Beasley and Gardner will be arraigned in Clermont County today on the charges against them, with Beasley appearing in municipal court and Gardner in common pleas court.

Both men will also have bond hearings then.

Wonder Continued from Page 1A

Cue audience laughter. Lippi herself smiled.

“I’m teasing. I’m teasing,” Biden said.

“I’m a big dog person.”

And indeed he is. Biden came to the White House in January with Major and Champ, two German shepherds. Major is a shelter dog. And Champ, who was 13, died on June 19.

“Her name is Wonder,” Lippi told the president before she asked her question about infl ation. She’s concerned about the cost of gas needed to fi ll up her Subaru Forester, which is decked out with a blanket and toys for Wonder’s comfort. It was recently $3.20 a gallon at the gas station nearest the university.

Biden gave a lengthy explanation, telling her “it’s highly unlikely that it’s going to be long-term infl ation that’s going to get out of hand.”

Lippi said she liked that answer.

Lippi, 25, told The Enquirer Wonder is a rescue dog she saved from a kill shelter in rural Kentucky. Lippi chose the name because Wonder had survived on the streets before coming into Lippi’s

life and Lippi saw her as Wonder Woman, the fi ctional superhero.

Wonder has lived up to her name, Lippi said.

Wonder survived three surgeries to remove cancer, including one on her leg recently, where stitches remained.

As they left the auditorium Wonder was stepped on, reinjuring her. Lippi wasn’t surprised. It’s easy to miss Wonder, she said, so her being stepped on

isn’t unusual. A quick trip to the veterinarian July 22 put Wonder back on the path to healing, Lippi said.

Lippi watched a recording of the town hall July 22 at her parents’ Loveland home, where she grew up.

In hindsight, there is one thing Lippi wishes she had told the president. Just so there’s not any confusion.

Wonder is a Republican, Lippi said.

Cincinnati library branches occupy notable buildings from our history Jeff Suess Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The south building of the downtown Cincinnati and Hamilton County Public Library library is undergoing renovations as part of a masterplan to build “the next generation library.”

In fact, several of the library’s 41 branches are being updated or remodeled, including the Walnut Hills branch, one of the historic Carnegie libraries built in 1906.

Cincinnati’s public library has occupied several notable buildings in its history:

Old Main Library The original library at 629 Vine St., designed by architect James W. McLaughlin, was intended to be an opera house but the owner ran out of money. So, the design was altered to be a library.

The gorgeous main hall opened in 1874, with its vast skylight that lit up four-story-tall wrought-iron bookshelves.

Despite the stunning, ornate décor, the Victorian building once called “the most magnifi cent public library in the country” was insuffi cient for the growing collection, and the librarians lobbied for decades to get a new building.

The Old Main Library was torn down in 1955, when the current main branch opened up a block and a half up at 800 Vine St.

New main library The modern-style main library designed by Woodie Garber was conceived as a sort of department store where patrons could browse. It originally occupied only half the block, with the entrance on Eighth Street.

Next door was the notorious Gayety Burlesk Theater, where strip-teases dis-

tracted patrons from research. It opened in 1909 as the Empress Theater, where Charlie Chaplin once performed vaudeville and the Kiradjieff brothers introduced Cincinnati-style chili to the city in 1922.

The theater was torn down in 1970, making way for the library to expand in 1982 with a new Vine Street entrance and an atrium skylight built as a tribute to the old library’s main hall.

Carnegie libraries When New York fi nancier Andrew Carnegie was paying for new libraries all over the country, Cincinnati received the funds to create nine branches: Walnut Hills, East End, Norwood, North Cincinnati (Corryville), Cumminsville (Northside), Price Hill, Hyde Park, Avondale and West End. The East End branch is now a community center. The West End branch was torn down.

The Walnut Hills branch project will double that library’s size and upgrade its accessibility while maintaining the building’s historic elements: the twin columns that arrived from Munich, Germany, along with the Tyler Davidson Fountain, the original birch-stained mahogany woodwork and the stainedglass window.

The library in the home at 750 Ludlow Ave. in Cincinnati’s Clifton neighborhood.

PROVIDED/COLDWELL BANKER WEST SHELL

George 'Boss' Cox mansion The Clifton branch has its own rich history as the former mansion of George “Boss” Cox, the political infl uencer who essentially ran Cincinnati government in the late 19th century.

His home at Brookline Street and Jefferson Avenue, built in 1895 by architect Samuel Hannaford, was the type of home to have a name – Parkview Manor.

After Cox’s death in 1916, the home was used as a fraternity house and somehow survived to be donated by Michael L. Dever to the library.

It opened in 2015 as Clifton’s homey neighborhood branch.

OH residents scramble to get last Walking Liberty Rolls

Once Ohio residents got wind that Ohio State Restricted Bank Rolls filled with Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s were being handed over, there was a mad dash to get them. That’s because some of these U.S. Gov’t issued silver coins are already worth hundreds in collector value.

“It’s like a run on the banks. The phones are ringing off the hook. That’s because everyone is trying to get them before they’re all gone,” according to officials at the National Mint and Treasury who say they can barely keep up with all the orders.

In fact, they had to impose a strict limit of 4 Ohio State Restricted Bank Rolls. So, if you get the chance to get your hands on these State Restricted Bank Rolls you better hurry because hundreds of Ohio residents already have and you don’t want to miss out.

You see, the U.S. Gov’t stopped mint-

ing these Silver Walking Liberties in 1947 and there can never be any more which makes them extremely collectible.

And here’s the best part. The rolls are unsearched so there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value.

That’s why at just the $39 state minimum per coin set by National Mint and Treasury it’s a deal too good to pass up.

But you better hurry because these Ohio State Restricted Bank Rolls are the only ones known to exist and Ohio residents are grabbing them up as fast as they can.

That’s because they make amazing gifts for children, grandchildren and loved ones. Just imagine the look on their face when you hand them one of the State Restricted Rolls — they’ll tell everyone they know what you did for them.

! GOT ‘EM: Residents all across Ohio who get their hands on these State Restricted Silver Walking Liberty Bank Roll are definitely showing them off. That’s because they are the only ones known to exist. And here’s the best part, these Bank Rolls are loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberty coins some dating back to the early 1900’s and worth up to 100 times their face value so everyone wants them.

Last State Restricted Silver Walking Liberty Bank Rolls go to Ohio residents Ohio residents get first dibs on last remaining Bank Rolls loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value for the next 2 days STATE DISTRIBUTION: A strict limit of 4 State Restricted Bank Rolls per OH resident has been imposed “It’s a miracle these State Restricted Bank Rolls even exist. That’s why Hotline Operators are bracing for the flood of calls,” said Laura Lynne, U.S. Coin and Currency Director for the National Mint and Treasury.

For the next 2 days the last remaining State of Ohio Restricted Bank Rolls loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties are actually being handed over to Ohio residents who call the State Toll-Free Hotlines listed in today’s newspaper publication.

“I recently spoke with a numismatic expert in United States of America coins and currency who said ‘In all my years as a numismatist I’ve only ever seen a handful of these rarely seen Silver Walking Liberties issued by the U.S. Gov’t back in the early 1900’s. But to actually find them sealed away in State Restricted Bank Rolls still in pristine condition is like finding buried treasure. So anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these Bank Rolls had better hold on to them,’” Lynne said.

“Now that the State of Ohio Restricted Bank Rolls are being offered up we won’t be surprised if thousands of Ohio residents claim the maximum limit allowed of 4 Bank Rolls per resident before they’re all gone,” said Lynne.

“That’s because after the Bank Rolls were loaded with 15 rarely seen Silver Walking Liberties, each verified to meet a minimum collector grade of very good or above, the dates and mint marks of the U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars sealed away inside the State of Ohio Restricted Bank Rolls have never been searched. But, we do know that some of these coins date clear back to the early 1900’s and are worth up to 100 times their face value, so there is no telling what Ohio residents will find until they sort through all the coins,” Lynne went on to say.

And here’s the best part. If you are a resident of the state of Ohio you cover only the $39 per coin state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury, that’s fifteen rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties worth up to 100 times their face value for just $585 which is a real steal because non state residents must pay $118 per coin which totals $1,770 if any coins remain after the 2-day deadline.

The only thing Ohio residents need to do is call the State Toll-Free Hotlines printed in today’s newspaper publication before the 2-day order deadline ends.

“Rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued silver coins like these are highly sought after, but we’ve never seen anything like this before. According to The Official Red Book, a Guide Book of United States Coins many Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars are now worth $40 - $825 each in collector value,” Lynne said.

“We’re guessing thousands of Ohio residents will be taking the maximum limit of 4 Bank Rolls because they make such amazing gifts for any occasion for children, parents, grandparents, friends and loved ones,” Lynne continued.

“We know the phones will be ringing off the hook. That’s why hundreds of Hotline Operators are standing by to answer the phones beginning at 8:30 am this morning. We’re going to do our best, but with just 2 days to answer all the calls it won’t be easy. So make sure to tell everyone to keep calling if all lines are busy.

We’ll do our best to answer them all.” Lynne said.

The only thing readers of today’s newspaper publication need to do is make sure they are a resident of the state of Ohio and call the National Toll-Free Hotlines before the 2-day deadline ends midnight tomorrow. !

SILVER: one of the last silver coins minted for circulation

VALUABLE: minted in philadelphia, denver & san francisco

ENLARGED TO SHOW DETAIL: year varies 1916-1947

RARELY SEEN: minted by the u.s. mint in the early 1900’s

FACTS:

HOW TO CLAIM THE LAST STATE RESTRICTED BANK ROLLS If you are a Ohio State Resident read the important information below about claiming the State Silver Bank Rolls, then call the State Toll-Free Hotline at 8:30 am: 1-800-979-3771 EXT: RWB1372

Are these Silver Walking Liberties worth more than other half dollars:

Yes. These U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties were minted in the early 1900’s and will never be minted again. That makes them extremely collectible. The vast majority of half dollars minted after 1970 have no silver content at all and these Walking Liberties were one of the last silver coins minted for circulation. That’s why many of them now command hundreds in collector value so there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday.

How much are State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls worth:

It’s impossible to say, but some of these U.S Gov’t issued Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s are worth up to 100 times the face value and there are 15 in each Bank Roll so you better hurry if you want to get your hands on them. Collector values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees. But we do know they are the only Ohio State Silver Bank Rolls known to exist and Walking Liberties are highly collectible so anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these Silver Bank Rolls should hold onto them because there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday.

Why are so many Ohio residents claiming them:

Because they are the only State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls known to exist and everyone wants their share. Each Bank Roll contains a whopping 15 Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value. Best of all Ohio residents are guaranteed to get them for the state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury of just $39 per Silver Walking Liberty for the next two days.

How do I get the State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls:

Ohio residents are authorized to claim up to the limit of 4 State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls by calling the State Toll Free Hotline at 1-800-979-3771 Ext. RWB1372 starting at precisely 8:30 am this morning.

Everyone who does is getting the only State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls known to exist. That’s a full Bank Roll containing 15 Silver Walking Liberties from the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value for just the state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury of just $39 per Silver Walking Liberty, which is just $585 for the full Bank Rolls and that’s a real steal because non state residents are not permitted to call before 5 pm tomorrow and must pay $1,770 for each Ohio State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Roll if any remain.

SCHOOL NEWS Summit’s McLane earns perfect ACT score Summit Country Day School junior William McLane, of Newtown, achieved a perfect score of 36 on the ACT college entrance exam. He took the exam during his sophomore year.

It is a rare accomplishment; 0.3% of all students who took the test nationwide in 2020 achieved a 36, which is a composite of the four mandatory tests for knowledge of English, math, reading and science. The ACT is an indicator of college readiness.

William William said he felt prepared for the McLane entrance exam because of his English and math classes.

“Ms. Sansalone taught us the foundations of grammar,” he said. “It was incredibly useful to know the different uses of ‘who’ and ‘whom’ and colons and semicolons as those appeared in questions on the test.

Sometimes, it’s the little things that matter.”

Not resting on his laurels, William is challenging himself with a rigorous curriculum, taking four Advanced Placement classes: Latin, Calculus B/C, Computer Principles and Language and Composition. This summer, he is taking a networks class off ered by Georgetown University.

William is a member of Summit’s cross-country and track teams, earning each team’s “Most Improved Athlete” award. The award is voted on by his peers.

Outside of school, he enjoys volunteering to help

coach younger runners at a local community track program that serves six schools. He enjoys watching them progress through diff erent times and passing on some of the wisdom learned from his own coaches.

“Coach Kurtis Smith taught us the importance of preparation, and it goes beyond running,” he said. “It’s about preparation for life.”

During the summer, William also runs a small business with his sister, Kate, painting mailboxes and installing American fl ags in the community.

An avid traveler, William has visited Europe, Africa and South and Central America, to name a few places.

He wants to cross the Far East off his list next.

Shop sustainably and prepare for the upcoming school year Millions of students are preparing to head back to the classroom this fall, giving new meaning to the term “back to school.” After more than a year of online classes, many students have changed their styles and are discovering the fashions that suit them best.

In preparation for their return to the classroom, students can visit Goodwill stores to shop for their backto-school needs. Whether it’s new clothes, shoes or accessories, visit your local Goodwill store for your one-stop shop for back-to-school essentials. There are 19 Goodwill stores in the Greater Cincinnati community fi lled with thousands of fashion faves for shoppers to choose from to create their unique styles, all while

staying on a budget.

“After a year of upheaval, as many students are going back to school in-person, they are also redefi ning their styles and values,” said Michael Flannery, public information offi cer at Ohio Valley Goodwill. “Students and their families can live more sustainably by shopping at and donating to Goodwill stores.”

While back-to-school shopping, Goodwill encourages people to donate the clothing and other items they no longer need. Last year, Ohio Valley Goodwill received more than 750,000 donations right here in Greater Cincinnati from our generous donors. Through a business model of collecting and selling donated goods and recycling those items that can’t be sold, Ohio Valley Goodwill helps communities extend the life of usable items in environmentally sound ways.

Shopping at Goodwill stores also supports employment placement, job training and support services, such as career counseling for people with disabilities and our nation’s veterans. Last year, Goodwill provided services to almost 3,000 people and helped 580 to get jobs.

Shoppers can also shop for back-to-school items on shopgoodwill.com, an online auction site operated by Goodwill, to fi nd popular items such as calculators, musical instruments, sports equipment and many other items they’ll need for the upcoming school year.

For a complete directory of all 19 Goodwill stores, visit www.goodwillbargains.com and enjoy shopping sustainably this Back-to-School season.

WEBN Labor Day fi reworks returning to the Ohio River Emily DeLetter

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

This Labor Day, the Cincinnati skyline will light up once again with fi reworks from Western & Southern/ WEBN. The annual display featuring Rozzi Famous Fireworks is returning Sept. 5 along with Riverfest, according to the radio station.

The event will kick off at noon at Sayer Point Park and Yeatman’s Cove. Fireworks will launch over the Ohio River starting at 9 p.m. There will not be a kickoff party at Fountain Square, as previous years.

The fi reworks show will also broadcast on WKRC Local 12.

T-shirts will be available for purchase at participat-

ing Kroger locations and online through WEBN “soon,” the website states.

The radio station will also host two “kickoff ” party nights on Sept. 3 and 4 with concerts at PromoWest Pavilion at Ovation in Newport. Theory of a Deadman will play Sept. 3 and Atreyu will play Sept. 4. Tickets for both shows are available for purchase now.

The Labor Day tradition did not take place as it usually does over the Ohio River in 2020, but instead moved to Kentucky Speedway due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At the time, citing health and safety reasons, organizers said they would “wait until 2021 to gather at the river.”

The Rozzi Famous Fireworks show is hosted by the cities of Newport, Cincinnati, Covington and Bellevue on Labor Day weekend, bringing large crowds to the riverfront. The fi rst Riverfest took place in 1977.

The Western & Southern/WEBN Fireworks are shot off at the Kentucky Speedway, Sunday, Sept. 6, 2020, in Sparta, Ky. The annual Labor Day weekend fi reworks tradition did not take place as they normally do along the Ohio River.

Izzy and Rose Kadetz with the staff at Izzy’s. PROVIDED

IZZY’S

still matters, after 120 years Keith Pandolfi

I

Cincinnati Enquirer/USA TODAY NETWORK

wish I was a regular at Izzy’s back when Izzy and Rose Kadetz were running the show on Elm Street. I wish I’d sat at one of their counter stools during the lunch hour two or three times a week, watching the couple bicker with the staff , the customers and, most of all, one another.

I wish I could have seen Izzy, whom Enquirer reporter Cliff Berman once described as “barrel built, wearing yesterday’s apron, [a] Kosher Zion hat tilted to the side of his head,” ringing up customers with one hand and slicing corned beef with the other. I wish I could’ve seen Joey Bishop or Buddy Hackett pop in for lunch there before a performance at the Beverly Hills Supper Club.

But those times are long gone. Izzy “Isadore” Kadetz died in 1983, followed not long after by Rose, in 1989. While their son, David, who shared many of his father’s personality traits, took over the restaurant, he too, died in 2011. It is now run by John Geisen – a former construction worker whom David hired in 1982 simply because he liked the cut of his jib – who oversees the Elm Street location as well as four others in the Cincinnati area.

But despite the change in ownership, Izzy’s, which celebrates its 120th anniversary this month, lives on.

Izzy’s was once considered required eating for anyone who visited Cincinnati. Aside from the place fi nding favor among those famous comedians I mentioned above, the New York Times sang its praises in a 1980 article, saying it “provides a kosher sandwich and

friendly and informal turmoil.” The Chicago Tribune listed it among the top fi ve restaurants to visit in the world. Gourmet magazine once asked Izzy if he could provide the recipe for his cabbage soup: a request that he refused.

While Izzy enjoyed the attention, he took it all in stride. “I don’t think I rate with the Taft family as a Cincinnati institution,” he wrote in the Dayton Daily News in 1969. “They’re lawyers with money and I’m a salami cutter.”

Something most Izzy’s veterans know (but I had no idea about) is that, for decades, the restaurant didn’t include prices on its menu. Izzy would likely charge you more if he thought you were a person of means and less if you seemed down on your luck. There were other mitigating factors, too. “If you had a suit on, he might charge you a little more,” his son, David, told The Enquirer in 1983. “You might get the higher price if you didn’t laugh at his jokes.”

Even more than their cabbage soup and corned beef sandwiches, Izzy’s was known for the (mostly) good-natured bickering Izzy and Rose performed behind the counter. When Rose died in 1989, Rich King, a former WLW radio host, told The Enquirer how Izzy would do the weather report live from the restaurant on the station, and how he would needle Rose, his staff and even his customers. “He would yell and scream, spout off Yiddish expressions,” he said. “The customers would laugh and he would deliver rude asides to Rose.”

“It was a combination of a sideshow

and the two letting off steam,” David Kadetz told the Enquirer in 1984.

Rose was equally as colorful. If a customer dared to order a glass of milk with his or her sandwich, in violation of kosher laws, Rose would scream, “You might want me to go to hell, but I won’t do it!”

Izzy’s wasn’t called Izzy’s when it opened in 1901 on the corner of Sixth and Vine. At that point, Izzy hadn’t even been born. It was established by his father, David Kadetz, a Russian immigrant, and was known as Kadetz Kosher Restaurant. According to Izzy’s website, the restaurant was “the fi rst kosher restaurant west of the Alleghanies,” though it isn’t strictly kosher anymore.

As a kid, Izzy wanted to be a football star. And while he received scholarship off ers after some standout performances at Hughes High School, he had to change those plans when his father passed away suddenly in 1931, leaving him to take over the restaurant, instead.

The Kadetz family had to relocate a few times in the name of urban renewal, moving from the corner of Seventh and Central avenues to 819 Elm St. in 1965, then down the street to 800 Elm St., where it still stands, in 1997. Currently, there are also locations in Forest Park, Western Hills, Madisonville (Red Bank) and Florence.

I go to Izzy’s every once in a while, usually to their location on Red Bank Road, and usually by way of the drive-thru. And while the food is always good, the service impeccable, I know it’s not the same as when Izzy and Rose were there. To try and get a feel of what it was like, last week, I

went to the Elm Street location for lunch.

The place was packed at around noontime, as seven or eight employees scrambled behind the counter grabbing hunks of corned beef from an automatic slicer, piling it on Klosterman rye bread and topping it with “imported” Swiss cheese before heating it up in what looked like a toaster oven.

There was no shouting or ribbing, but it was still lively.

My regular order is the Reuben, a potato pancake and an extra order of pickles, those wonderful pickles. Back at home, I tear off pieces of the potato pancake with my hands, top each piece with a pickle and eat them like salty and sour hors d’oeuvres. On to the sandwich, is Izzy’s Reuben the world’s best, as the restaurant touts on its menu? I’m guessing anyone who’s ever visited Katz’s deli in New York would beg to diff er, but hey, it’s still pretty darn good.

The woman behind the counter, who at fi rst seemed too laser-focused on her job to talk, eventually started chatting with customers, asking how they’re holding up; asking them if the cabbage soup Izzy never shared the recipe for is good.

When a regular walks in with his newspaper, the employees scream his name as if he’s Norm walking into Cheers. I bet the guy’s been coming here forever, I think. I’ll bet he remembers what it was like back in the day. I envy him for that. I’m thankful he still comes here. Looking for good lunch, looking for some companionship, looking for the spirit of Izzy and Rose.

In honor of its 120th anniversary, Izzy’s is off ering several meal deals and giveaways.

Cherry bounce never loses its appeal Small and large batch cherry bounce Cherries are usually left unpitted for looks and, as some folks believe, taste. You do what you want. I’m a purist here. I leave the pits in.

Use either the dark, sweet cherries or the Rainier cherries.

Ingredients small batch cherry bounce ⁄ 2pound fresh cherries, washed and stemmed, pitted or not

1

About 8 oz or so rock candy or 1 generous cup of granulated sugar ⁄ 2 bottle bourbon whiskey (full bottle is 750 ml)

1

Instructions Put cherries in glass jar.

Put sugar on top.

Pour whiskey over.

Put lid on and shake daily until sugar dissolves (rock candy takes a bit longer than granulated). If it needs more rock candy/sugar, add it in small amounts.

Let infuse for 3-6 months.

Check after several weeks and if using rock candy on sticks or strings, remove. (No worries if you forget — just remove them before serving).

To serve

As many of you know, every summer I share a version of the liqueur George Washington made famous: cherry bounce. Martha, his wife, had among her surviving papers a recipe for cherry bounce using cherries, French brandy, sugar and spices.

He took it in canteens on his various trips. I’m thinking it did a couple of things: cherries are good anti-infl ammatories after a hard day of riding, and a little nip prior to bedding down for the night not only tasted good but most likely calmed jangled nerves.

Last year, and again this year, I made the bounce in small, and large batches and with two kinds of cherries.

One with the dark, sweet cherries and the other with Rainier, a yellow/red cherry. I used bourbon whiskey, less expensive than brandy.

Interesting how the bounces turned out. The dark cherries made a bounce with a vibrant color and deep fl avor.

Bounce made from Rainier cherries was lighter in col-

A lovely cordial, topping for ice cream or cake or added to sparkling water.

Let folks know cherries have pits if you left them unpitted.

Pits should not be ingested.

You can use rock candy for the bounce.

How much to drink?

or and more mellow in fl avor. I’m not sure which is my favorite.

Both have medicinal qualities, as my friend, Mary Rudloff of blessed memory told me years ago.

So whether you use the bounce as a medicinal for “anything that ails you, especially in winter,” or as a jewel-like cordial, I know you’ll understand why cherry bounce never loses its appeal.

In the old days, rock candy was used for the bounce. I’ve adapted the recipe to use that, or just plain granulated sugar.

A couple of teaspoons as a medicinal, or in a cordial glass as a liqueur.

Tip: can’t fi nd fresh cherries?

Use frozen, thawed, unsweetened cherries.

What is rock candy?

Sometimes called crystal or rock sugar, rock candy is formed by letting a very saturated solution of sugar and water crystalize onto a surface, like a string, stick, or just granulated sugar.

SPORTS Tri-state’s top-10 prep wide receivers to watch in 2021 Shelby Dermer and James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

It's time to run down Greater Cincinnati's top wide receivers heading into the 2021 high school football season.

Keyshawn Barber, Hughes (Sr.) Barber led the Cincinnati Metro Athletic Conference in all three major categories: catches (25), receiving yards (439) and touchdowns (fi ve). Barber averaged nearly 18 yards per catch and was named fi rst-team CMAC Blue, fi rstteam all-district and third-team AllOhio. He had six catches for 130 yards and two touchdowns against Summit Country Day.

Logan Campbell, Western Brown (Sr.) In just eight games, Campbell led the Southern Buckeye Conference in receiving yards (899) and was second in catches (56) to go with eight touchdowns. His average of 112.4 receiving yards per game was also tops in the league. Campbell went over the century mark in fi ve of the fi rst six games of last season. He went for a season-high 204 yards and three touchdowns against Clinton-Massie. Campbell was named fi rst-team all-district and honorable mention All-Ohio.

Western Brown's lethal passing attack, steered by quarterback Drew Novak, will also have Dylan Novak to throw to. The senior was second-team all-district after having 43 receptions for 672 yards and a half-dozen touchdowns in 2020.

OHSAA releases fall sports calendars and precautions James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

With practices for all fall sports beginning Aug. 1 and the season kicking off later that month, the Ohio High School Athletic Association has sent updates and reminders to its 817 member high schools and 747 member 7th and 8th grade schools.

The OHSAA’s memo to member schools on July 23 included information about upcoming meetings and other reminders. Here are some key items from a release from the OHSAA on July 29.

Devin Holbert, Dixie Heights (Sr.) The 5-foot-11 playmaker had 59 receptions for 923 yards and eight touchdowns and made several big plays dur-

Terrell McFarlin, St. Xavier (Sr.) With Liam Cliff ord and Jalen Patterson now playing in college, McFarlin should be the top target for All-Ohio quarterback Brogan McCaughey in 2021. McFarlin had 45 catches last season for 534 yards and six touchdowns last season for the state champion Bombers.

McFarlin had two touchdown catches in St. Xavier's 62-37 shootout win over Cleveland St. Ignatius and turned in 11 catches for 139 yards combined in the two state tournament games.

COVID-19 Update

Lakota West Athletic Director Scott Kaufman has been named the new Board President for the 2021-22 school year. He is the only Cincinnati representative on the 11-person board.

The Ohio Department of Health released newly revised guidance for K-12 schools on Tuesday, July 27, with some information related to interscholastic sports.

Although Ohio lifted most statewide pandemic-related health orders on June 2, 2021, the risk is still there for illness from COVID-19.

The OHSAA currently has no mandates regarding vaccinations and social distancing, and the only mandate on masks is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requirement that masks be worn while using public transportation, which includes school buses.

The OHSAA recommends that coaches and student-athletes who are eligible for vaccinations to be vaccinated and it is highly recommended that

Academic Eligibility Reminder The OHSAA has suspended the academic requirement that student-athletes must have passed fi ve one-credit courses (or four classes at the 7th/8th grade level) in the fi nal grading period of the 2020-21 school year. Therefore, all student-athletes are eligible with respect to their OHSAA scholarship eligibility, for the fi rst grading period of the 2021-22, unless a school chooses to enforce its own scholarship standard.

Ramsey would qualify for the top athletes for the upcoming season, but he's put in the wide receiver category, which is where he earned fi rst-team alldistrict and second-team All-Ohio honors last season. Ramsey has played some quarterback and run the ball for the Panthers as well. In 2020, he ran 129 times for 721 yards and 14 touchdowns.

As a pass-catcher, he's totaled 116 receptions for 1,395 yards and 13 scores over the last two seasons combined.

The 6-foot-5 Patterson had 34 catches for 595 yards and eight touchdowns in just six games as Scott played a limited schedule because of the pandemic.

Patterson has been attending Division I camps this summer.

There is always something going on here in Bethel

COMMUNITY NEWS Cassie Mattia becomes co-owner of Loveland’s longest standing publication “No words can describe how deeply touched and grateful I am that David gave me the opportunity to fulfi ll my journalism dreams at Loveland Magazine. The fact that at the age of 32 I can proudly say I am the co-owner of a newspaper that has been around for 18 years is truly amazing,” said Cassie Mattia.

Mattia as a 6-year-old had a passion to be a writer. Her love for the written word along with pursuing and achieving college degrees in journalism, business and English led her to reach yet another mile stone on June 25; when she became an equal co-owner of Loveland Magazine.

It was three years ago on July 9, 2018, when Cassie sent Loveland Magazine owner, David Miller, an email that introduced herself. It read in part, “One day I was running and I passed the Loveland Magazine location and immediately got excited as I thought this could be an opportunity to display my writing skills! I am not sure if you guys are hiring or not, but I thought I would send an email displaying my interest in possibly doing some freelancing or anything you had available. I want so badly to share my writing with others, and I do believe this may be a good opportunity to do so!”

“It was an absolutely beautiful summer morning when I received Cassie’s email and I thought, why not get out of the offi ce for a change and enjoy spending a few moments outside,” Loveland Magazine’s founder and editor, David Miller, said. “I invited Cassie to have coff ee in historic downtown Loveland at the Loveland Sweets Shop.”

That meeting quickly led to a photo shoot and a column branding for Mattia. “Time for Loveland Salad with Cassie Mattia” was created. In this column, Mattia could write and report on a wide variety of stories about Loveland. Cassie soon became a paid writer and the magazine’s associate editor. She then was promoted to account executive, which entailed managing Loveland Magazine’s advertisers. Recently Mattia was given the title director of marketing to better refl ect her current advertising duties.

“I had thought for a long time about how to reward Cassie for her dedication and the skill set she brought to our newspaper and concluded she should be part owner,” said Miller. “After drafting an ownership agreement, asking her if she was interested, and after looking much closer at it, I became increasingly uncomfortable with the 60/ 40% owner relationship I was proposing. I thought, what am I trying to hold onto and control by making her a minority partner?”

Miller redrafted the agreement into a Co-Equal Partner Agreement. For Miller, it wasn’t about sharing future profi t, it was about Mattia gaining

equal control and decision-making power.

“It is a true model of how I believe an employee-owned business should be run,” Miller said.

Swensons Drive-Ins celebrates construction of fi rst Tristate location Swensons Drive-Ins, home of the famous “Galley Boy” cheeseburger, is offi cially coming to Anderson Township.

To celebrate, the restaurant chain brought its food truck to host a local community celebration on Tuesday, July 20, at its building site. This will be the chain’s fi rst Greater Cincinnati location. Hundreds of people joined in the fun and many received free sandwiches, including Swensons’ cornerstone menu item, the “Galley Boy.” Founded in Akron, Ohio, in 1934, Swensons Drive-Ins is a restaurant chain that serves fresh, never-frozen burgers, shakes and crispy extras with a sprint and a smile, right to your vehicle. With no indoor dining, Swensons remains committed to the unique customer experience started by its founder Wesley T. “Pop” Swenson – Curb Servers still sprinting to your car to take orders and deliver delicious food – as

Howdy folks, Last Wednesday evening at Burke Park, there was music and food. The music was provided by the Civic Pops from the Cincinnati Civic Orchestra and the food was provided by the Access Church.

This church is located at 1300 State Route 125, Amelia, OH 45102. They provided the food and ice cream. There were other booths there to enjoy. The music was very good and there was a large crowd to listen to the Civic Pops.

There were a lot of folks there I haven’t seen for several years and everybody was enjoying themselves with the music and food and one of the best things folks had a chance to just visit.

The Empower Youth is responsible for all this and they should be thanked.

There were several folks that had shirts honoring the Empower Youth. The Access Church provides food to the Empower Youth and several other food pantries. They are very active. That is what the Lord wants.

The Access Church, like the Lions Club, helps with the book bags before school starts. There is always something going on here in Bethel.

It’s fair time. I am not able to be there to help put the booths in so Bob and Gladys Lytle have the responsibility of doing this and they will do a wonderful job. Bonnie Lytle and Jamie Kinner will put the Junior fair booth in with the help of the Junior members.

The Grange has been putting a booth in at the fair for many years. They used to have horse and sulky racing at the fair which my brother Frank would ride in.

He had a horse in the race then he would have a tractor in the tractor pulls.

The Clermont County Fair years ago was held below Bantam when the train line ran through Bantam.

The Clermont County Fair is the highlight of the county with good food and lots of 4-H activities.

The Owensville Historical Society

have a building by the Grandstand at the fairgrounds, that has a lot of history items in it.

Many years ago while I was working at East Fork, the Amelia teachers would bring a couple classes here to the old church for me to talk to. While one class was in the old church listening to me talk and tell them about the church, the other teacher would have something for their class to do in the cemetery.

When I was about done, Rick Crawford always told about during the preaching service, that if anybody dozed off the preacher would walk down and hit them.

Rick always did a fi ne job of sharing stories about the history of our area.

When I was about done one time, I asked if there were any questions. One little boy raised his hand and asked me if I knew any of the people that built the church.

Now for some fi shing report. I talked to Sherry’s Lake and they have a fi shing tournament starting. The lady said they have 40 people fi shing. They have already caught some nice big catfi sh.

She was busy and I didn’t talk to her long. I talked to Cedar Lake and the lady said they have been busy. So far the biggest fi sh is a 46.6 pounder and that was a shovel head. There has also been a 56.2-pound blue catfi sh caught. The lady there was busy so I didn’t keep her long. I talked to the Boars Head Bait Shop and the lady said they were very busy selling bait.

The Lytles, Bob, Gladys and Bonnie picked me up and took me to the fairgrounds to see the booths the Grange put in. They were very beautiful.

On the way to the fairgrounds, I noticed that the corn and soybean fi elds sure look good.

The corn is looking good and the soybeans are growing. The gardens here in Bethel are looking good too. It seems these folks all have a green thumb.

This morning at church, my great granddaughter Brooklyn sat on my leg and took a ride with me on the scooter.

She will have something to tell her sister Elana.

God bless all ...

Anderson’s domain name now changed to AndersonTownshipOH.gov Anderson Township is now sporting a new domain name for its web address, currently operating as AndersonTownship.org.

Like many local governments current relying on “.com” “.org” or “.us” addresses, Anderson Township and government agencies are being encouraged by the federal government to move to a “.gov” address to eliminate confusion and to promote cybersecurity.

The new web domain is AndersonTownshipOH.gov for the offi cial township government website.

Legislation passed in 2020 provided federal assistance to government agencies to initiate the change through the DotGov Program.

“The .gov URL is a trusted signal to users that a site is legitimate and can be relied on for offi cial information,” Earhart said.

City of Loveland commits to fi rst solar project The City of Loveland has entered a contract with Melink Solar & Geo to install solar panels on the new Public Works offi ce/garage building. This will be the city’s fi rst solar energy project.

“The idea of adding solar panels to the new building to off set future electric costs was intriguing to City Council and staff ,” said Loveland City Manager David Kennedy. “Besides the obvious electric cost savings, it was agreed that the new Public Works building would be an ideal location for the city’s fi rst venture into solar-powered public facilities.”

Melink Solar & Geo will install 40 panels, totaling 16,000 watts, on the rear roof pitch of the new building.

The panels will have an estimated life of more than 30 years. Additionally, the project includes an inverter that will convert the DC electricity generated by the solar panels into AC electricity.

With this system, an estimated 85% of the new building’s annual electrical power needs will be supplied.

“This project demonstrates the city’s commitment to reducing greenhouse gases and will serve as a guide for future potential use of solar on city-owned buildings and infrastructure,” Kennedy said.

The city began the bid procurement process in May 2021. A total of two bids were received, with Melink submitting the most competitive cost-per-watt proposal. The project total is $42,000. Bond fi nancing has been secured to fund the new building.

The new building will be located at the current Public Works complex, 10980 Loveland-Madeira Road, just northwest of the site’s current offi ce building. The project will include approximately 2,400 square feet of offi ce space and 3,800 square feet of garage space, replacing the current building that houses offi ces for the Public Works Director and City Engineer. The city entered a contract with DER Development in April 2021 for the construction of the new facility at a cost of $1,303,612.

Construction is anticipated to begin in fall 2021. Solar panels will be installed after the roof is completed.

Once constructed, the old Public Works building will be razed and the parking lot will be resurfaced.

For more information about this project, please contact City Engineer Cindy Klopfenstein at (513) 6830150.
