BECAUSE COMMUNITY MATTERS

Rangers help take down Snap Money Gang members By Jeanne Houck jhouck@communitypress.com

At least twice last September, a man in a shirt and tie knocked on the door of a home in Indian Hill. If someone answered, he’d politely ask for directions or the like. If no one answered, the man, a member of the Snap Money Gang, would proceed to burglarize the home. That’s according to Assistant Indian Hill Police Chief Mike Dressell, who says the Floridabased criminal organization has been burglarizing homes in the Midwest and Northeast for years. But when burglars who hit homes in Hamilton County and West Chester Township last year counted up the stolen cash and merchandise, they didn’t count on being taken down with the help of two Indian Hill Rangers. Snap! At a recent annual Hamilton County Police Association banquet, Dressell and Indian Hill Police Det. Shawn Perdue were among a group of local police officers awarded the Clarence “Sid” Caesar Award for their part in an investigation demonstrating interagency operation. Local, state and federal lawenforcement officers worked together to put three suspects in

the burglaries – which also happened in Evendale, Montgomery and Sycamore Township – in

a Kentucky jail on felony indictments. They are accused of taking money, jewelry and laptops.

“It was one of the most indepth cases we have ever investigated,” Dressell said. “It was challenging and rewarding to know that we were an integral part of the team that took down this criminal organization.” Taking down the gang suspects was a two-month ordeal that included the use of surveillance cameras, jail phone conversations, cell phone “pings,” stake-outs and a 140-mph car chase. Chief Chuck Schlie of the Indian Hill Rangers Police Department says he is extremely proud of Dressell and Perdue’s dedication to solving the cases and to protecting residents. “This case was a shining example of the cooperation that exists between all law enforcement departments in Hamilton County and with the federal agencies,” Schlie said. “Their experience and work ethic played a major part in the apprehension of these suspects and helps eliminate any further victims in our community.” Dressell said Indian Hill burglaries attributed to the Snap Money Gang in 2015 include one on March 12 on Burley Hills Drive, two on Aug. 21 on Blue Cut Lane and Rettig Lane and two on Sept. 24 on Burley Hills Drive. The total worth of the

THE RUNDOWN Assistant Indian Hill Police Chief Mike Dressell said the multi-agency investigation of the local Snap Money Gang burglaries played out this way: » Indian Hill Rangers contacted the South West Ohio Police Intel Group at its website, which local agencies use to share information, after eight homes were burglarized in Indian Hill, Evendale, Montgomery, Sycamore Township and West Chester last Sept. 24. The Rangers noted that a witness had reported a Blue Lexus in one of the neighborhoods. » West Chester police provided pictures of a blue Lexus caught by a surveillance camera in the area of their burglaries. » The license plate could not be read on the pictures. So Indian Hill Rangers recruited Cincinnati Police Officer Alice Stallcup, a forensic video analyst, to enhance them. » Stallcup gave investigators a Florida license plate number and they determined that it had been rented from a Hertz location in Florida by the first of three suspects later to be arrested for the local burglaries and more.

District to change start time next school year Forrest Sellers fsellers@communitypress.com

Indian Hill schools will have a later start time beginning next school year. During its March meeting, the school board approved a later start time for all of its schools. The new hours for the high school and middle school will be from 8 a.m. to 2:45 p.m.; the hours for the primary school will be from 8:45 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and the hours for the elementary school will be from 8:55 a.m. to 3:40 p.m. The decision came following an evaluation process and survey in which parents and students said they would support a

revised schedule. “We did a significant survey within the district of parents, students, the community and teachers,” Board President Kim Lewis said. “This is something we have studied for a long time and finally came to a consensus on.” Among 1,417 respondents to a survey conducted in December, 65.1 percent of the parents supported a later start time even with the potential for increased transportation costs associated with a revised bus schedule. The survey indicated that the initial estimate to move start times would have an approximately $150,000 net incremental transportation cost. Among students responding

to the survey, 61 percent favored a later school start time. Staff members, though, were less supportive of the change. Only 37.3 percent of staff responding to the survey supported a later school start time. Currently, the high school and middle school start time is 7:35 a.m. Superintendent Mark Miles said even with a revised schedule, students would still meet the number of instructional hours required by the state. This isn’t the first time the district has looked at a later school start. Back in 2006, the district had several discussions on the matter. It has been looked See SCHOOL, Page 2A

cash and merchandise stolen was about $50,000, he said. Snap Money Gang members are still operating out of Florida, Dressell said, and police agencies are still pursuing them. Agencies with unsolved burglary cases have been calling local police departments for help, he said. In addition to Dressell and Perdue, Evendale Police Det. Sean McKinney, Evendale Police Lt. Steve Niehauser, Cincinnati Police Officer Alice Stallcup and Madeira Police Det. Tim Vogel received the Clarence “Sid� Caesar Award from the Hamilton County Police Association.

Rundown Continued from Page 1A

Âť Evendale Police Det. Sean McKinney contacted the Felony Lane Gang Working Group at its website – a clearinghouse of information for investigators focusing on the car burglary group – and immediately heard from investigators in Nashville, Tenn., and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, and from the FBI. Âť They said the first suspect was a member of the “Snap Money Gang,â€? which is believed to travel up and down the eastern United States burglarizing homes in affluent neighborhoods. Âť Dressell organized a meeting of detectives investigating the burglaries to share information and to plan how to proceed with the burglary cases. Âť McKinney executed a search warrant on a phone number associated with the rental car and discovered that the phone “pingedâ€? on cell towers serving Indian Hill, Evendale and Montgomery. Âť Dressell tried to find out where the first suspect stayed with other suspects while in the Cincinnati area by contacting 34 hotels in Blue Ash and Sharonville. Âť Dressell learned the suspects had stayed at the Red Roof Inn in Sharonville on Sept. 23 and Sept. 24. McKinney got the hotel registration, a copy of the first suspect’s Florida driver’s license and video of the first suspect checking in. Âť The information was used to get search warrants for phone numbers associated with the first suspect’s phone, which confirmed Snap Money Gang members’ presence in the Cincinnati area during the time of the burglaries. Âť “Using the records obtained during the search warrants, Det. McKinney discovered a call to the (first) suspect’s phone that was placed from the

Broward County, Fla., jail and the call revealed a conversation between the burglary suspects wherein they openly talk about their ‘road trips’ and talk about the blue Lexus that was identified earlier and was now known to be used in our eight burglaries,â€? Dressell said. Âť Investigators also learned that other suspects’ phones were pinging in the Cincinnati area at the time of the burglaries, and search warrants were executed on those phone numbers. Âť Information from the search warrants led police to witnesses such as hotel clerks, restaurant employees and female companions of the suspects. Âť While scouring the phone records, McKinney found two numbers that had a 513 area code and led to two Forest Park teenagers with whom the burglary suspects had developed relationships when the teens were vacationing in Florida. Âť McKinney and Evendale Police Lt. Steve Niehauser interviewed the pair, and they said the gang had in the past made trips to Cincinnati to commit burglaries. The teens also gave details about how the burglaries were committed. Âť The revelations led to more search warrants on the suspects’ phones that allowed detectives to confirm the gang’s presence in the Cincinnati area on Aug. 20 and Aug. 21. On Aug. 20 there had been two burglaries each in Indian Hill and Cold Spring, Ky. Âť Nov. 18, a confidential informant contacted McKinney to say a gang member had called her to say they would be in the Cincinnati area the following day. Âť McKinney obtained an emergency ping order on one of the suspect’s phones and confirmed that the suspect was in the Lexington area, where the suspect would later be accused of committing burglaries.

Âť Dressell, McKinney, Niehauser, Indian Hill Police Det. Shawn Perdue and Madeira Police Det. Tim Vogel gathered at the Evendale Police Department to track the suspects via phone pings. Âť As the Snap Money Gang members headed towards Cincinnati, officers organized a four-car surveillance crew. Officers planned to allow the suspects to enter a hotel room and then have the Hamilton County Police Association SWAT team execute a search warrant. Âť But gang members headed back south after the confidential informant decided to side with the gang and told members that the police were closing in on them. Âť Perdue, Vogel and Evendale Police Sgt. Tim Holloway followed the suspects south and made Kentucky law-enforcement officials aware of the situation. Williamstown police tried to make a traffic stop on the suspects, at which time the suspects turned out their headlights and fled in earnest. Âť Kentucky State Police pursued the vehicle at speeds of up to 140 mph until it crashed after stop sticks flattened two of the suspects’ tires. Âť All three suspects ran from the vehicle. One was caught at the scene, one was caught later in the area and one was later picked up in Van Buren County, Ark., accused of committing burglaries there. Âť Officers found hundreds of items stolen in Lexington-area burglaries when they searched the suspects’ wrecked car. Âť “Detectives McKinney and Perdue interviewed the suspects for over three hours, eliciting confessions from two for all the burglaries for which they were suspected in the Cincinnati area as well as learning that this gang had been as far north as Indianapolis and as far west as Houston,â€? Dressell said.

Hill High Indian School Principal Antonio Shelton said he supported an 8 a.m. start time. A later start time provides the students with more sleep, he said. However, Indian Hill Elementary School Principal Melissa Stewart said the impact on younger students may not be as productive. “Considering their learning needs, as it gets later in the day, their attention and focus begins to naturally decline,� she said. “Our current start time has been successful for us.� Student opinions were also mixed. “Personally, I think it should be later,� Indian Hill High School junior Tommy Lundberg, of Indian Hill, said. “I think high schoolers will perform better with more sleep.� Freshman Lexi Magenheim, of Symmes Township, said she likes the current start time. “It would be nice to be able to sleep in, but I still think it’s nice to have the sports start when they do currently,� she said, questioning the potential impact on extracurricular activities.

Madeira is one step closer to protecting its historic properties. Madeira City Council is approving the Madeira Historic District Design Review Guidelines. The guidelines were created by the Historical Preservation Commission and have been approved by the Law and Safety Commission. As part of the guideline, tenants will need approval from the commission for the construction of new buildings or additions, and any demolition. Approval is also needed for the addition, removal or covering of awnings, decks, doors, fencing, fire escapes, masonry, parking lots, paved areas, commercial signage and paint. The Madeira Historic District includes the Hosbrook House, Muchmore House and Madeira Train Depot. The district was created by council after the passage of Issue 13 in the November 2014 election, which called for a historic district to protect the three properties. City Manager Tom Moeller said he is working with the law director’s office to finish the penalty section - the only unfinished part of the guidelines. The guidelines only apply to the exterior of the buildings. They have an

emphasis on preservation and stress the importance of repairing, retaining, maintaining and protecting the original materials. During the first reading, council agreed to add a definition for “original.” Councilman Tom Ashmore, the representative to the Historical Preservation Commission, said the commission was defining “original” to mean how the properties were when the amendment passed in 2014, not their original state. The Muchmore House was built in 1900, the Hosbrook House in 1898 and the Train Depot in 1880, according to the Hamilton County Auditor’s records. “I would like to commend the historic preservation commission for all the work they have done on this. I know they worked really hard on this. Overall, I think it is a good piece of legislation,” Councilman Mike Steur said. Council has said it is waiting to fill the Hosbrook House until the guidelines were complete. The Hosbrook House has been vacant since the Clothes Closet, which was operated by the Madeira Woman’s Club, closed in August. The guidelines will go through two more readings of council, which next meets Monday, March 14. Follow Marika Lee on Twitter: @ReporterMarika

Local moms helping students in need Marika Lee mlee1@communitypress.com

A Loveland area mom and others are continuing to help students in need. Megan Hook, of Loveland, runs the Lion’s Thread Closet at Rees E. Price Academy in East Price Hill. The closet provides new and used clothing, coats, shoes and personal hygiene products to the students. Hook and Linda Bingham Bell of Indian Hill set up the store in the old boys’ locker room and opened before Thanksgiving. “We serve student in grades pre-k through grade six. The students came in and they shop with a volunteer to get things that they don’t have. A lot of them don’t have shoes without holes in them or they aren’t wearing socks or their pants are the wrong size,� Hook said. She said the store gets the students as much as they can, with their goal being three shirts, three pairs of pants, a coat, a hat, gloves, a scarf, underwear and socks. Each student is sent home with a book. “A lot of these students don’t have any books at home at all,� Hook said. Hook said the store at Price is a continuation of her friend Danielle Mangano’s Madhatter’s Closet at Oyler Community Learning Center, in Price Hill. Hook knew Mangano from being neighbors in the Miami Trails subdivision before she moved to Indian Hill. Hookt got involved by volunteering to sort coats at Oyler. When Hook saw a post in the Facebook group, Support for Oyler and Rees E. Price Academy, she and Bell stepped up to continue the help. “(The students) would come in and they would be so downtrodden and you could tell they

were carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders. And we would spend 20 minutes to a half hour with them, talking with them, shopping with them. You could tell you made a difference and you made their day that much easier and that was what had me hooked, seeing the smile on their face when they left the building with something that everybody should have, that nobody should go without,� she said. Hook said both closets are looking for new and gently used clothing and winter gear for children ages 4 to 18; books; new undergarments and toiletries. Donations can be made at Plant Products, 4200 Malsbary

Road in Blue Ash, where they are sorted. Volunteer opportunities can be found through the Facebook group. “A lot of the volunteers are moms in this local area; Loveland, Indian Hill, Madeira, Mason. The more people we get, the more impact that we can have. It is truly amazing how generous people in this area and really throughout the city are,� Hook said. Loveland resident Linda Riley said she found it easy to donate her two children’s clothes after they outgrew them. She said assisting with the clothes can be a positive and eye-opening experience for anyone in her community.

“I know some people go shopping with their kids for others kids because it is eye opening for them to know others are going without simple things, like socks,� Riley said. Riley said she got involved through Hook, but continues to volunteer because of enjoyable experiences she had had helping the students shop. “We serve anywhere from 15 to 30 kids a week per school and the needs are never always met. There are always going to be needs. We are just trying to make it a little easier for the kids who have enough of other stuff to deal with,� Hook said. Follow Marika Lee on Twitter: @ReporterMarika

Should private schools disclose more? Hannah Sparling hsparling@enquirer.com

A four-page bill is causing a stink in Cincinnati. It’s a back-and-forth battle about parents’ right to know versus private schools’ right to independent operation. The bill would require private schools to publish some information on Tom their webBrinkman Jr. insites, cluding enrollment and financial data. Other information – reading lists and school bylaws, for example – would have to be accessible to parents of enrolled students. “Transparency is the only thing that’s going to save us,� said Rep. Thomas Brinkman Jr., R-Mount Lookout, the bill’s primary sponsor. “Things get hidden, and things happen behind the scenes. And the only way we’re going to be able to make informed decisions and know what’s going on is if we require our institutions to be transparent in their operations.� Heidi Huber, who is running against Brinkman, said the bill is an affront to the very definition of private schooling. She called it an overreach and the “antitheses of liberty and education.� Huber said the bill, which hasn’t made it out of committee yet, was the final straw in her decision to run against Brinkman. The two faced off in the March 15 primary. “Private schools are just that – private,� said Huber, of Anderson Township.“Once you start asking the government to

monitor you, you’re basically giving them authority to determine what is best practice. And they’re more than happy to step in and do that, as we know.�

What does it say?

The bill is 16 paragraphs long. And the substance – is packed into the final six paragraphs. Private schools would have to: Âť Publish on their website a summary of the school’s cash flow and student enrollment for the previous two schools years, as well as the school’s policy for background checks of those working with students; Âť Give parents of enrolled students access to: reading lists and curricula for each grade level; concerning documents the school’s bylaws; and meeting minutes “in a manner similarâ€? to the meeting minutes public school boards are required to publish. Private schools already have that information, Brinkman said, so it won’t cause much fuss to make it available. Some of it is on the Ohio Department of Education website, but there’s a difference between it being buried under “volumesâ€? of spreadsheets, Brinkman said, versus being easily accessible. Huber said that’s not the point. Parents choose private school for a host of reasons, one of which is to escape state influence. But it’s a choice, she said. If a parent doesn’t like how his private school is operating – if he thinks he’s being misled – he can choose a different school.

weren’t allowed to take any notes. Hicks is now part of a small team of Cincinnati pushing for parents Brinkman’s bill, HB 401. It’s “attacked as being this unbelievable government intrusion,� Hicks said, but really, it’s “super simple.� He likes his school, and he wants to keep his son there, he said. But he wishes there was more transparency. He tried to get enrollment numbers, for example, and he ended up with four numbers that varied by 20 percent, he

said.

Will it go anywhere?

If a school doesn’t comply, there’s nothing in the bill that states what would happen as a result. There’s no oversight or appeals process. Catholic Locally, schools would be most impacted. But Carolyn Jurkowitz, Catholic Conference of Ohio executive director, said she doesn’t have strong feelings. If Jurkowitz had her druthers, she’d rather the bill not pass as-is, she said

– because she’s not sure the bill, as written, would be easily applied to diverse schools. Some Catholic schools, for example, don’t have school boards, she said, so it would be impossible to keep meeting minutes. Brinkman points to St. James of the Valley School in Wyoming, which closed after it came to light the school had been running a deficit for a dozen years. Parents didn’t know what was going on until this past January. The school closed in June.

Some may remember Hicks from a 2012 battle to get the Archdiocese of Cincinnati to make public its curriculum. The curriculum is available online, but previously, according to Hicks, the policy was parents could only review it during a “supervised visit“ with the principal. And, he said, they

Get Irish in the kitchen on St. Paddy’s Day Champ

Some stories are worth repeating. When I was in first-grade at St. Margaret of Cortona School in Madison Place, Sister Justina asked me why I wasn’t wearing a green ribbon in my hair for St. Patrick’s Day. “Because I’m Lebanese,” I replied timidly. Truth be told, Mom didn’t have any ribbons for our hair, let alone green ones. That’s all changed, Rita and even I’m a bit Irish Heikenfeld on St. Patrick’s Day, sans the green ribbons, RITA’S KITCHEN of course! The story goes that St. Patrick went to Ireland, killed all the snakes and converted the people. Eating something green, like Champ, is traditional, along with a stein of green beer. Before you know it, Easter will be here, as well. So I’m sharing two nice recipes, one from my kitchen and one from reader Mary Hall’s recipe box.

Here’s both the something green and the potatoes, long a favorite root vegetable in Ireland. This is good any time of year, especially in the spring when bunches of home grown green onions hit the farmers’ markets. 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and chunked up 1/2 cup whipping cream 1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick) plus extra for garnish 1 bunch green onions, sliced - green part only

THANKS TO RITA HEIKENFELD

Moist and buttery Irish soda bread

Rita’s crunchy overnight Easter cinnamon coffeecake can be baked right away

Did you know?

This can be baked right away, also. If refrigerated overnight, allow extra baking time. You can also let it sit out to take the chill off for 20 minutes before baking. Either way, when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, it’s done. Cake:

Check out my web site: Abouteat ing.com for a tutorial with photos for this most delicious bread. Horseradish has lots of vitamin C and in the olden days, was made into a tea for urinary tract health. It’s pungent aroma clears out sinuses. It has been associated with the possible prevention of different kinds of cancer, helping your body detox from carcinogens.

Matzo update

A reader thought the tablespoon of salt called for in the Matzo recipe was “excessive.” I told her I put that amount in for flavor, but that she could lessen it or eliminate the salt. Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator, Jungle Jim’s Eastgate culinary professional and author. Find her blog online at Abouteating.com. Email her at rita@communitypress.com with “Rita’s kitchen” in the subject line.

Cook potatoes in boiling salted water until tender. Meanwhile, bring cream and butter to simmer and mix in green onions. Remove from heat and cover and let steep while potatoes cook. Drain potatoes, put back in pan and shake around to remove any moisture. Then mash. Add cream mixture and blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper and make a well in the center, placing a dab of butter there to melt and make a puddle.

Rita’s crunchy overnight Easter cinnamon coffeecake

1 stick unsalted butter, softened 1 cup sugar 2 large eggs, room temperature 8 oz. sour cream 2 teaspoons vanilla 2 cups flour 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon ea. baking powder and soda Dash salt

Streusel: Mix together: 3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar 3/4 cup chopped pecans 1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9x13 pan. Beat butter sugar and eggs together until blended and light, about 2 minutes. Add sour cream and vanilla and blend. Combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, soda and salt and add to batter slowly and blend well. Pour into pan. Sprinkle streusel on top. Bake 35-40 minutes. Don’t overbake. Freezes well. Gilding the lily: Drizzle a confectioners’ sugar glaze on top after it cools.

Mary Hall’s crockpot Easter ham Mary sent this hand written recipe to my colleague, Jimmy Bonaminio. Jimmy passed it on to me. Now I’m passing it on to you! 3-4 pound boneless ham 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 1/4 cup Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons prepared or freshly grated horseradish root 12 oz. can regular Coke

Make a paste of the brown sugar, mustard, horseradish and 1/4 cup of the Coke. Rub over ham. Place in sprayed crockpot. Pour rest of coke around ham. Cook 6-8 hours on low. Remove, slice and drizzle with juices. Tip from Rita’s kitchen - measuring horseradish To measure prepared horseradish correctly, strain it before measuring.

Why U.S. is the best place to live Most likely the first reason would be freedom of speech. All opinions are daily expressed and commented on, from the very edge of every culture in every corner of even the most God-forsaken places in this nation; and, include those spokespersons representing even the lunatic fringes of society. The second reason would follow the first, the freedom of the press to publish even the most outrageous and libelous of rants. I would argue that the great majority of those in the news media are attempting to practice honest, creditable journalism. The news media has been incessantly attacked as biased and dishonest, by

uneducated elements of political life. This is a relatively new phenomenon.

March 10 question Will Cincinnati’s new professional soccer club, FC Cincinnati, which opens its season later this month, be successful? Do you plan to attend any games? Why or why not?

“I think FC Cincinnati will be successful. Soccer has such a strong following with so many top notch school and club teams in the area, that the ability to watch professional soccer close by will be a big draw. “Also, since it is not to the big money level of the NFL or the MLB, it should be a more affordable sports attendance option. This will resonate with family’s wanting a competitive sporting event where they don’t have to take out a second mortgage for a visit to the concessions stand. “I do plan on attending. I like to support new ventures in our city and I’m am fairly soccer ignorant so it will help me learn the game and be a part of the excitement.” C.S.

M.J.F.

“Cincinnati had professional soccer many years ago. It did not do well. But soccer has risen in popularity since then due to both the USA women’s and men’s international success. Plus soccer is played in all high schools. Two of the friendly games are versus XU and UD which will draw nice crowds. The games will be at the new improved Nippert Stadium at UC. All signs point to success. The Reds are not predicted to do well so this soccer may be the best professional game in town this spring. Go Figure!” T.D.T.

“Please, tell me that you’re kidding about a professional soccer team. “Are these the type of things that this city knows how to do best is spend money on white elephants? A profession-

When government becomes so totally corrupt that, as an example, they make it “illegal” for old peoples’ medicine to be negotiated by Medicare, then, it becomes obvious to almost all that the people in positions of public trust, are not working for the people, and must go. They must be voted out of office. This is possible, provided everyone registers, and everyone actually votes. James Baker is a 38-year resident of Indian Hill.

Ethics, a few leading questions for you

We don’t seem able to do French cuisine very well; probably because we are not able to buy the exact same ingredients. For instance, most French cheeses are unpasteurized. No. 6 probably should be number one; that is, Dwight Eisenhower’s very socialistic Interstate Highway System. It has been economically vital in the building of our economy. It is essential for both small and large businesses, and you and I use it every day without regard to the sophisticated process that was required to ac-

al soccer team in Cincinnati will go over about as good as the professional basketball team, the Cincinnati Royals, which was tried twice and failed. The only adults in Cincinnati interested in soccer teams are the parents of kids in high school or college that are on soccer teams just so they can go and cheer on their kids. Wouldn’t it have made more sense to put something like this on a ballot and have the people of this city vote on it to see how much interest their would be first? I think things like giving tax incentives to manufacturing businesses and bringing more jobs to Cincinnati would be time and money better spent.” T.K.

I taught ethics for a few years. To get the class to start thinking about some of the problems people have faced, the first session opened with a tough question. Suppose one of your children or a parent had been kidnapped and Ed Levy the price for the return of COMMUNITY RECORDER GUEST your loved COLUMNIST one is to kill someone. What would you do? There was no answer. The problem was simply to make one think. Ethical problems are not this hard normally, but this has been done. Our problems are much easier, but our ethical standards define us. Not only to the public, but also to ourselves. We have to face them and live with them. For the most part. We can depend on the reliable Ten Commandments, or to be politically correct, the 10 good ideas. Throughout our lives, we make ethical decisions. Some are good and some are lacking according to generally accepted standards. We become known either way. Sadly, the bad judgments we make tend to implicate others who may be similar to us. That has been a fault of humanity for thousands of years. Many people are so insecure that they feel any means of thinking someone is inferior is a way of improving their status. That is just poor ethics. But, to get back to the personal ethics. You have to set personal standards and you have to keep and live by them. Others will know you

by them. Even if you have made minor slips, they often live with you forever. The major ones are something you never escape. As you age, your standards have been set. The young folks have to set their own as they mature. It is an important decision. There is another factor that I want to stress. It is actually fun. You can affect the lives of others to your great satisfaction. The idea is to do favors for others. They can be big or small. It is the personal factor that makes you look good in their minds. The fun part comes if you are offered a reward. The best answer is to refuse it and tell the person that you want them to pass a favor on to some other person. You will be rewarded by the look on their face and an inner warmth that tells you that you have done something that will influence the future recipients favorably. You may even feel that you have changed the world for the better in your own small way. What about the person you have influenced? Think about the possibility that he or she may take up your leading idea and begin to repeat your great principle. The world needs changing. It will not be done by grand plans of charity, human nature shows that this only creates greed, or even worse, laziness. The small acts of positive humanity will hopefully create a personal effect that encourages acts of kindness. Have fun changing the world a little bit at a time! Edward Levy is a resident of Montgomery.

2016 HIGH SCHOOL LACROSSE PREVIEW

Indian Hill boys feature vets, transfers Scott Springer and Nick Robbe Community Press staff

INDIAN HILL – A state semifinalist in 2012 and regional finalist in 2014, Indian Hill High School’s boys lacrosse team could be a factor in the Division II Southwest Ohio Region this season. The Braves struggled at 4-14 last season, but coach Tim McKay has several key returning players, plus some key transfers that should contribute immediately. Back for action at Tomahawk Stadium are two-year captain and starter in goal, senior Cam McMillan, senior midfielder Philip Farist, senior defenseman Grant Gottdiner and junior midfielder Owen Taylor. Also back at Indian Hill after transferring from Seven Hills is senior attack Georgie Fovel who had over 60 goals the last two seasons for the Stingers. “We have a very strong senior class,� McKay said. “We have 42 players, up from last year’s 28 and a 16-player freshman class. Lots of this year’s sophomores and juniors got quality varsity minutes last year and will again this year.� The transfers should all play key roles, in particular the highscoring Fovel. In addition, the Braves have added junior long stick mid Matt Sorenson from Richmond, Virginia, midfielder Bryn Irvine returns from St. Xavier and freshman midfielder Cole Werbrich comes from Miamisburg. Those moving to college lacrosse include senior mid Philip Farist who will attend Division II Lenoir-Rhyne in Hickory, North Carolina and junior mid Owen Taylor who has received several offers. Indian Hill begins the season March 21 at Milford before taking on Lakota East at home March 24.

Cincinnati Country Day Last year, Cincinnati Country Day featured a squad with no seniors and managed a 7- 5 record during the regular season, according to lacrosseohio.com. That means every player on the roster can return this season including Frankie Grossi, Will Brady, Sam Jenkins, Teja Atluri, Adam Katz and Jake Mayeux. All of them, if they return, would be seniors on the squad. The Indians could also get Ian McInturf and netminder Jack Schiff back. CCD is coached by Chris Stokley.

Moeller

In his second year as Moeller High School lacrosse coach, Sean McGinnis led the Crusaders to a regional runner-up finish. Naturally, in year three, he would like to guide Moeller to their first regional title since

2011. The Crusaders were 12-10 last season in the Division I Southwest Ohio Region. They are led by senior close defender Tony Lebarge who will be trying to get his land legs after skating for the Moeller hockey team over the winter. Lebarge will move on to play lacrosse at Wittenberg after this season. Also on Division I college radars is sophomore close defender Jack Stahancyzk, a very physical player. Junior mid Lucas Klever has also received some college attention and junior attack Cory Lockwood and senior mid David Denzy are two-year varsity players. Other returning starters are senior defender Logan Nelson, junior goalie Paxton Kreger, senior attack Jack Richey, junior attack Conor Rice and senior midfielder David Pilopovich. “We have players now in our system we have been developing over the past two seasons,�

Indian Hill’s Owen Taylor leads the Braves midfielders and is considered a college prospect.

McGinnis said. “The players are closer this year and understand the importance of team concepts and team-first mentality. We’re skilled at every position this year, so if they work together and play for each other, the little things will take care of themselves.� Another young college prospect is freshman Brendan Sigurdson. The Crusaders program lost a senior last summer and they have dedicated their season to him. On March 19, the Moeller quad scrimmage will honor Rob

Graham with the G. Robert Graham Memorial. Graham has a brother, Jack, on the team and another brother who attends St. Xavier. To help overcome the tragedy, Moeller participated in a team building weekend with Stone Wall Solutions. “Former Navy Seals were teaching our program the teamfirst mentality and the importance of being your best everyday,� McGinnis said. “We will consult with them throughout See BOYS, Page 2B

Indian Hill Lady Braves seek another tourney try Scott Springer and Nick Robbe Community Press staff

INDIAN HILL – The Indian Hill High School girls lacrosse team has had remarkable success under coach Katie Post who has racked up 31 wins in 40 games over two seasons. The Lady Braves were 17-4 in 2014, followed by 14-4 last season. Both seasons featured long winning streaks but unfortunately ended in the Division 2 tournament with losses to Columbus area teams. Indian Hill will again play a competitive schedule against many Division 1 teams, including Hudson, Olentangy Orange and Worthington Kilbourne out of the region. Top seniors include midfielder Rhian Horton, goalie Allie Lach and defender Jane DiGennaro. Leading the junior class

are midfielders Lily Lance and Bailey Bathalter. Other returning starters are Robin Schumacher, Stephanie Tranter, Catherine Sanders and Kate Yamaguchi. “This team is going to be a great mix of players that are returning with a lot of experience,� Post said. “There are a lot of new faces to add to the strong roster.� Lance is a University of Cincinnati commit. Indian Hill starts with road games at Milford March 24, Mariemont April 7 and St. Ursula April 12. The Lady Braves have their home opener April 13 against Wyoming.

Cincinnati Country Day

Cincinnati Country Day won’t have Grace Krammer, Danielle Mangat, Kira Hughes, Alexandra Sukin, Mackenzie

Patterson or Charlotte Jackson. However, coach Pat Dunn still could have a few good players returning to the Indians’ ranks. Jane Brooks, Taylor and Skylar Boggs and Emma Robitaille were all-Miami Valley Conference performers and are eligible to return this season.

Mount Notre Dame

The defending Girls Greater Catholic League champion Mount Notre Dame Cougars hope to continue the momentum of an undefeated league season. MND was 16-3 overall last season under coach Russell Mackey who enters his 10th year. Two of MND’s losses were to Division I state runner-up Sycamore. Mackey returns three startSee GIRLS, Page 2B

MOELLER GOES SLOW, BUT LOSES Wilmington escapes; Roger Bacon, SCD win Scott Springer sspringer@enquirer.com

The game plan was simple and one Moeller had executed before. Slow the game down and limit the area’s top scorer, Wilmington senior Jarron Cumberland. The Crusaders were able to keep the score down, but fell short against the Hurricane 40-37 March 9 at the Cintas Center. Cumberland led Wilmington with 22 points and 7 rebounds. Wilmington moved on to the Division I regional final against Centerville, which defeated Lakota East in the early game. “It feels good to be playing another game,” Wilmington coach Michael Noszka said. “If we played them (Moeller) again tomorrow, it would probably go down to the wire again.” Just as it was last Jan. 23 at Moeller, the Crusaders were deliberate in trying to offset Cumberland and his 30.4 points per game average. It was mission accomplished in the first quarter as Moeller took its time and held a 10-7 lead with the University of Cincinnati recruit missing all of his shots. The featured Hurricane finally got in the scorebook early in the second quarter with a pair of free throws. The 6foot-5 forward then began to have an impact as Wilmington wiped out a seven-point Moeller lead and went to the break leading 20-19 with Cumberland scoring 10 points. “I started moving more and got into my rhythm,” Cumberland said. “They started screening for me more.” Moeller took the third quarter by holding Cumberland to a pair of threes early in the stanza, then chiseling at the Hurricane lead. By quarter’s end, sophomore Isaiah Payton had

calmly put up 12 points in the game and Moeller led by three. With 4:33 left, Dylan Beaugard hit a 3-pointer and Wilmington took the lead back for what would be the final time. The score stayed at 36-35 until Cumberland hit a pair of free throws with 43 seconds left. Seconds later, he pulled down a rebound and the Hurricane had a fast break that put them up five. Moeller would get a Riley Voss putback with 4.8 seconds left, but that was it. With Cumberland heading to UC, many fans were anxious to see him do well at Cintas Center where the Bearcats have struggled in recent Crosstown Shootouts. “They were tweeting and saying for everyone to come

watch and show support,” Cumberland said. “They (Moeller) are a very good team. They beat us in the regular season, but that didn’t mean nothing to us.” The 37 points was Moeller’s lowest output since a loss to Seton Hall Prep in the Beach Ball Classic at Myrtle Beach Dec. 27 when they scored 33. “I knew the game would be in the 30s,” Kremer said. “We knew it would be a low-scoring game. They were very patient over at our place. To their credit, they had a good game plan. Jarron (Cumberland) made a couple plays and we ran out of time.” Wilmington went to 24-1 with the win, while Moeller finishes 21-4.

St. Xavier High School has established itself as arguably the premier lacrosse program in the state. With good reason. Last season, the Bombers won the Division I state championship over Upper Arlington, the 2014 state champion. In 2014, St. X was a regional champion and state semifinalist. All another way of saying the bulls-eye is large and it’s seated squarely on the backs of the blue Bombers. Even with the graduation of William Holcomb, St. X’s leading scorer and one of the best players in Ohio last season, the Bombers are loaded with top-ofthe-line talent returning from last year’s team that finished 18-5. “(This year’s team) is comprised of a great blend of experienced upperclassmen with some talented sophomores that

will see some playing time right off the bat,” said sixth-year coach Nate Sprong. “Our goal is to peak in June and we have scheduled accordingly. “Last year was a great accomplishment for the program and a tribute to the hard work for all those involved, but it is time now to hit the reset button. This team must create its own blue collar mentality.” Returning to the starting lineup will be senior attacker Griffin Buczek, who’s signed to play at Cornell and was the second-leading scorer last season, senior attacker George Thurner, senior net-minder Alex Deters, who’s signed to play football at Princeton, senior defenseman Stephen Ray, senior Mark Wallach and senior midfielder Nick Pompelia, a John Carroll signee. Sprong also likes senior midfielder Jacob Lang, junior attacker/midfielder Caleb Anderson, a Furman commit, and senior goalie Charlie Robson, who’s headed to DePauw. The 2016 edition will be “athletic and fast,” said Sprong. “I think this is the fastest team we have had during my tenure at St.” St. X opens at home March 23 against Springboro.

Moeller rugby readies for run Scott Springer sspringer@communitypress.com

Since they started kicking and running seven years ago, Moeller’s rugby team has won a state championship, finished as runner-up three times and made the state semifinals two other times. Last season ended with a loss to Cleveland St. Ignatius for a chance to go to the state championship again. This spring the Crusaders have made a weekend trip to Nashville to get games in and enthusiasm is running high. For example, rather than take a week off, Moeller state tournament wrestlers Jack Meyer and Trevor Hankins were at practice on Monday, about 48 hours after departing the Schottenstein Center mats in Columbus. “He (Meyer) decided for his senior rugby season he would come to practice right away,” Moeller coach Steve Kuhlman said. Even though Moeller has a bevy of spring sports, the Crusaders field three rugby teams with a varsity “A” and varsity “B” plus a junior varsity that’s mainly freshmen and sophomores. “We have about 74 (players) right now,” second-year coach

THE COMMUNITY PRESS/SCOTT SPRINGER

Jacob Gall and Bobby Tull walk off the field after a match last April. Both are returning starters for coach Steve Kuhlman at Moeller.

Kuhlman said. The rugby schedule somewhat resembles Moeller’s fall football ledger with top-notch competition. In addition to a rematch of last year’s semifinal with Cleveland St. Ignatius, they play a “who’s who” in high school rugby. “(Lakewood St. Edward) is ranked sixth in the nation, Ignatius is 18th or 19th and Brownsburg (Indiana) is 14th and (Indianapolis) Cathedral won the national championship last year,” Kuhlman said. “St. X is always a good competitor and Lakota has always had a strong team.” Some of Moeller’s top performers are Jacob Gall, Andy

Beitman, Jack Meyer, Nate Heister and Kaevon Salehpour. Other returning starters are Bobby Tull, Alec Bayliff and Chandler Dixon. Like many Moeller sports, the rugby program has some history since being started in 2009 by former offensive line coach Doug Rosfeld. Kuhlman played for Rosfeld (now with the University of Cincinnati’s football program) on Moeller’s state championship squad. In year one at the helm as coach, Moeller finished 8-3 and had their seventh straight winning season. “I inherited a crazy talented squad last year,” Kuhlman said. The Moeller Division I varsity “A” team features all returning players. Gall, a top scorer last year, is again among the leaders in points. The sport is also attractive to a lot of wrestlers. From soccer, the Crusaders have added the kicking and scoring abilities of Mick Hamilton. After being injured last season, he was Moeller’s point leader after the initial weekend in Nashville. The “B” team is comprised of new or first-time players. A home game is ahead on April 2 with Moeller hosting Brunswick for three matches (one for each team).

ers in Kelsey Beitman, Emily Alexander and Dorie Coggin. Other key contributors will be Julia Harmon and Allie Daumeyer. Mackey hopes the 2016 team gels quickly. “They’re a tight knit group of girls who have had to come together fast after losing 11 seniors, of which nine were starters,” Mackey said. “They’re truly a sisterhood and care for each other very much.” Beitman is set to become one

of MND’s top 10 all-time leading scorers this season, with Coggin set to become the the all-time leading save maker in goal. Junior midfielder Daumeyer has committed to Coastal Carolina. “Offensively, we have some quickness,” Mackey said. “Defensively, we have a solid unit who are great communicators and know how to play ‘D’ very well.” After a scrimmage with Mariemont March 21, the Cougars start the season at McAuley March 31. MND travels to Mason April 5 before their first home game with St. Ursula April 7.

Zonta Club Wine & Dine scholarship fundraiser raises $25,000 The Zonta Club of Cincinnati hosted its fifth annual Wine & Dine Scholarship Fundraiser at the Sharonville Convention Center. A generous crowd had a great time bidding on fabulous silent auction items, buying chances for special raffle items, and donating money for the Fund-A-Scholarship auction. The fundraiser generated $25,000, with proceeds to benefit the Zonta Club of Cincinnati’s Ann Rasche Scholarships for women over age 25 enrolled in their firsttime degree program at Cincinnati State Technical and Community College, Zonta International Scholarship programs, and other clubapproved service projects. Zonta International District 5 Governor and Zonta Club of Cincinnati member Ellen Spaeth (Mason) was the evening’s emcee. Former Cincinnati State President Dr. O’dell Owens hosted a champagne toast to kick off the event and served as auctioneer for the Fund-A-Scholarship live auction. 2015 Ann Rasche Scholarship recipients Jackline Singh and Leigh

Huy, and Zonta International Jane M. Klausman Scholarship winner Jada Fountain (all three from Cincinnati) spoke eloquently about how their scholarships impacted their educational and future career plans. Zonta Club of Cincinnati President Connie Kingsbury said, “We had a fabulous turnout and the crowd was extremely generous. The graciousness and hospitality of the Sharonville Convention Center staff was terrific. We are very fortunate to have such exceptional community sponsors and first-rate donors who contributed great silent auction items. All of these great supporters helped us reach our goal to provide more scholarships. A special thank you goes to our event sponsors: Ohio National Financial Services, American Insurnet, Clever Crazes for Kids, and the many generous Friends of Zonta. We hope that the greater Cincinnati community will continue to support the Zonta Club of Cincinnati in our efforts to provide educational opportunities to women in the Tristate area. The 2016 Wine & Dine Scholarship Fundraiser will

once again be at the Sharonville Convention Center on Saturday, Sept.so be sure to save that date because we’re planning several new features this year.” The Zonta Club of Cincinnati, part of Zonta International, is a service organization dedicated to advancing he status of women worldwide by improving the legal, political, economic, educational, health, and professional status of women at the global and local levels through service projects, advocacy, education, and program funding. The Zonta Club of Cincinnati, through the Zonta Service Fund of Cincinnati Inc., has been providing scholarships to non-traditional female students age 25 and older with limited financial resources in the Greater Cincinnati community for many years via the Ann Rasche Scholarship program. Rasche was a member of the Zonta Club of Cincinnati from 1972 to 1998 who worked for Cincinnati State Technical and Community College for 26 years. The Ann Rasche Scholarship fund was established in her honor upon her death in

Water Works awarded for research Greater Cincinnati Water Works is one of two utilities to receive the prestigious “2015 Outstanding Subscriber Award for Applied Research.” The Water Research Foundation is an internationally recognized leader in sponsoring research that supports the water community in holistically and cooperatively managing water from all sources to meet social, environmental, and economic needs. Outstanding Their Subscriber Award for Applied Research honors subscribing utilities that have made notable improvements to their treatment, delivery and/ or management processes through the success-

ful application of WRF research. “This is a true testament of GCWW’s commitment to water quality research to enhance our water treatment systems for the protection of our customers,” said Tony Parrott, Executive Director of Greater Cincinnati Water Works and the Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati. GCWW is being recognized for its research to address critical infrastructure and operational issues facing utilities across the country and subsequent application of the findings to create unique solutions. Most notably, GCWW used WRF research in the designing, building

and operation of its Ultraviolet (UV) treatment system and shared those results with WRF subscribers highlighting UV operations best practices. Water Quality Superintendent Jeff Swertfeger said GCWW has participated in more than 100 WRF research projects since 1983 and has conducted several WRF research projects. “This is a great honor and tribute not to an individual person, but to an organization with a longstanding culture of wanting to understand its challenges, wanting to improve its practices, and wanting to share its own ideas and practices so that others may improve as well.”

1998. This signature event is a continuation of the scholarship program, which will allow more women in the Tristate area to receive their education thereby improving their lives and those of their families and communities. Direct scholarship donations can be made through the Zonta Club of Cincinnati website. Visit www.zonta-cinti. org/ScholarshipMain.html for details. In addition to their Ann Rasche Scholarship Fund, proceeds from the Zonta Club of Cincin-

nati’s fundraisers benefit ongoing educational and service programs which include hosting quarterly birthday parties for the residents at the Bethany House Women’s Shelter; donating clothing, laundry supplies and toiletries, and seasonally decorating the storefront windows at the Mary Magdalen House; supporting Families Forward by providing books, games, and other toys for girls during the holidays; providing holiday gifts to Visiting Nurse Association patients; providing dinner and beauty nights

Scammers pretend to own property for rent This is the time of the year when consumers look for a new place to either rent or buy. A Cincinnati area woman, Jessica, wrote me that she turned to Craigslist seeking to find an apartment to rent – and unfortunately fell into a scheme that’s hitting our area. She writes, “I came across a three bedroom townhouse for $650. I was interested, so I emailed the link and asked about the place and set up a walkthrough. I received an email back asking for my contact information – so I provided my cell phone number.” Next, she writes, she received a text message

from someone named Bryan who claimed to be the owner of the townHoward house. Ain They set up an apHEY HOWARD! pointment to go look at it. Jessica writes, “While doing the walk-through Bryan was very detailed about the apartment. He said he installed new windows, new hot water heater and, once the current tenant was out, he would paint it and lay new carpet.” Jessica says she was thrilled with everything and agreed to secure the

apartment by paying $1150 cash as a down payment. When I asked how she had so much money with her, she said Bryan told her to get the money from her bank and bring it to the walkthrough just in case she wanted to take the apartment. Jessica filled out a rent application and gave a copy of her paycheck stub for the background check. She says she was told she could pick up her keys a few days later. But, she says, there was one delay after another and she couldn’t get the keys. Finally, just before she was to pick up the keys, she called to get the electric switched into

her name and, “They told me there was also gas not just electric. So I tried to contact him and his phone has been disconnected,” Jessica says. She drove over to the townhouse and, “knocked on the apartment next door to ask who the landlord was and if they knew who stayed here. We were informed by that tenant we were the second person so far that morning with the same story. He pointed us across the parking lot to the leasing office. The office was closed... Next, I drove to Colerain police and made a report.” Later, Jessica says, she received a call from

the apartment complex and was told that man, who used the name Bryan, has pulled this same scam on many people. Police are now trying to track him down. Unfortunately, this scam has been used several times by people pretending to own property. When there were a lot of empty, foreclosed homes sitting around, scammers would claim they owned the homes – and they collected rent from people who actually moved in. Victims would pay the scammers monthly until learning it was all one big fraud. The way to protect yourself from these scams is to check the county property records

to see exactly who owns the property you’re looking to buy or rent. Ask the person you meet there for proof of exactly who they are. Never wire money to someone who happens to be out of town and who promises to send you the key as soon as they receive your money. If, as in Jessica’s case, you’re looking at a unit in an apartment complex you should never pay a deposit in cash. Always write a check to the apartment complex management. So, beware.
