North College Hill gamer sentenced to 15 months in prison ‘Swatting’ call resulted in the fatal shooting of a Kansas man by police ASSOCIATED PRESS

WICHITA, Kan. – An Ohio gamer upset about a $1.50 bet while playing Call of Duty: WWII online was sentenced Friday, Sept. 13 to 15 months in prison for recruiting a prankster to make a bogus emergency call that resulted in the fatal shooting of a Kansas man by police. Casey Viner, 19, of North College Hill, Ohio, also is restricted from gaming activity for two years while he is on supervised release after serving his prison term, U.S. District Judge Eric Melgren said in announcing the sentence. Viner repeatedly gulped and appeared crestfallen as the judge announced his sentencing decision. He glanced into the courtroom gallery where his parents were seated. His tearful mother got up and left the courtroom. His father, an Ohio law enforcement oﬃ cer, put his head into his hands. Viner pleaded guilty in April to felony charges of conspiracy and obstruction of justice in the hope that he would not be sentenced to prison. Viner admitted trying to hide his involvement in the 2017 incident when he realized the antic had gotten someone killed. In a brief courtroom statement, Viner told the judge he is “awfully sorry” for what happened: “I never intended for anything to happen. I think of it every day.” Prosecutors and defense lawyers in their plea agreement had recommended a sentence of two years on probation, with the added condition that Viner be conﬁ ned for six months to his home unless attending school, work or church. They also jointly recommended the gaming restriction. See SWATTING, Page 2A

Planned Parenthood to close two Greater Cincinnati clinics Jackie Borchardt and Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Planned Parenthood will close two Cincinnati health centers after the organization refused to follow new rules for receiving federal money for birth control and other reproductive health services. The Springdale Health Center and Western Hills Health Center in West Price Hill together serve more than 6,000 patients a year, according to Planned Parenthood of Southwest Ohio. They were set to close Sept. 20. Neither center performs abortions. In a news release, the organization blamed federal and state policy changes for the centers’ demise. The Trump administration in August began enforcing a “gag rule” preventing entities receiving Title X dollars from recommending or advocating abortion. Instead of complying, Planned Parenthood decided it would stop accepting funding through Title X, which was created in 1970 to provide family planning help to primarily low-income women and families. The organization receives about $60 million a year. A 2016 Ohio law passed by the GOPdominated General Assembly defunded Planned Parenthood from several health and education programs. A fed-

eral court upheld the law earlier this year. Planned Parenthood received about $600,000 in state funding last year. The money was used to give free tests for sexually transmitted diseases, provide services related to HIV and AIDS, and run programs to reduce infant mortality. The money could not be used for abortions, but Republican lawmakers and anti-abortion advocates argued state funding would oﬀ set operating costs and indirectly fund Planned Parenthood’s abortion services. Kersha Deibel, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio Region, said the closings will hurt Cincinnati, which has the highest rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea infection of any Ohio city. “While we’ve been battling sky-high STI rates, politicians like Sen. Rob Portman, Rep. Steve Chabot, and Govs. Mike DeWine and John Kasich have spent years relentlessly working to chip away at Ohioans’ reproductive health care,” Deibel said in a statement. “This is the world they want to see: one where women lose access to birth control, where information about how to access abortion is held hostage, and where, if you don’t have money, it’s almost impossible to access an STI test or a cancer screening.” Mike Gonidakis, president of antiabortion group Ohio Right to Life, said the closures show Ohio women are

walking away from Planned Parenthood and getting health care elsewhere. “It’s obvious that Planned Parenthood needs women more than women need them,” Gonidakis said. “Ohio’s robust healthcare community stands ready to support all women in the greater Cincinnati area. We can only hope that the remaining abortion clinics follow suit and close their doors as well.” During a press conference outside Portman’s downtown Cincinnati oﬃ ce, Deibel said Cincinnati has a high rate of sexually transmitted diseases and Ohio sits among with the worst state for infant mortality.

Police: Mt. Healthy student threatened to shoot up school Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A Mount Healthy High School student was arrested at his home Tuesday, Sept. 10 after police said he threatened to shoot up his school. Several surrounding schools were locked down around dismissal time as police investigated the threat.

Swatting Continued from Page 1A

But Melgren said a prison sentence was required to reﬂ ect the seriousness of the oﬀ ense and give the public a sense the criminal justice system is working. It was foreseeable that something bad could happen by calling an armed police force to respond to what police believed was an escalating situation of violence, he said. “We impose sentences not only for what people intend, but what happened,” Melgren said. The death of 28-year-old Andrew Finch in Wichita, Kansas, drew national attention to “swatting,” a form of retaliation in which someone reports a false emergency to get authorities, particularly a SWAT team, to descend on an address.

Mount Healthy police said the school administration learned of the threat around 1:30 p.m., but didn't report it to police until nearly an hour later. "The investigation into the delay of reporting the incident to police is on-going," Chief Vincent Demasi said in a statement. "At this time, we have no evidence or reason to believe students would be endangered by attending

school." Demasi said school oﬃ cials began investigating the threat immediately. The 16-year-old boy accused of making the threat was later found at his home and arrested. "Our investigation indicates the situation started as a verbal dispute between the arrested and another student," Demasi said.

Viner himself had been swatted just 20 days earlier to the Kansas incident, his defense attorney Jack Morrison, Jr. told the court. He said Viner is remorseful, noting he lost about 20 pounds in recent months “on reﬂ ection of the gravity of what occurred as a result of what he believed to be a harmless prank.” Authorities said Viner recruited Tyler R. Barriss to “swat” an opponent, then-19-year-old Shane Gaskill, in Wichita. But the address they used was old, leading police to Finch, who was not involved in the dispute or video game. Gaskill, who had previously given his old Wichita address to Viner, was charged as a co-conspirator after knowingly giving Barriss the same former address and taunting him to “try something.” Barriss, a then-25-year-old Los Angeles man with an online reputation for “swatting,” called police from Los Angeles on Dec. 28, 2017, to falsely report a shooting and kidnapping at that Wichita address. Finch was shot by police when he opened the door to see what was happening outside. Viner had just turned 18 about two weeks before the deadly swatting incident, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Debra Barnett argued probation would give him a better grasp of what he has done and would be a ﬁ rst step in helping him to grow up. “At his age and his youthfulness, I am

not sure he is going to get it if he is sitting in a cell block with people who are more hardened, more experienced than he is,” she said. The federal indictment alleged that a forensic examination of Viner’s iPhone recovered his deleted outgoing messages to unknown persons, including one in which Viner allegedly wrote: “I was involved in someone’s death.” Finch’s family has sued the city of Wichita and the offi cers involved. Police have said the offi cer who shot Finch thought he was reaching for a gun because he moved a hand toward his waistband. The local district attorney declined to charge the offi cer. Gaskill has struck a deal for deferred prosecution that could allow the charges against him to be dropped. U.S. Attorney Stephen McAllister said outside the courthouse that a distinguishing factor in the government’s handling of the prosecutions of the two gamers is that none of this would have happened if Viner had not reached out to Barriss and started the whole process.

The teen is charged with aggravated menacing and was booked into Hamilton County juvenile detention. Police have not released the name of the teen. "My hope is that parents will use this occasion to speak with their children, reinforcing the message to never make threats of this nature during school hours," Demasi said.

people of Cincinnati will suff er,” she said. “Planned Parenthood will not back down from the fi ght.” Offi cials said the Springdale Planned Parenthood opened in 1995 and the Western Hills location opened in 1977. Between both centers, offi cials said 13,250 STI checks and 2208 breast exams were performed last year. Planned Parenthood patient and advocate Caroline Lembright said she struggled to fi nd a healthcare provider to successfully address her endometriosis, but Planned Parenthood was able to get her on the right birth control to do so. “This is about control,” Lembright said. “If Senator Portman or Congressman Chabot or even Governor Mike DeWine had painful periods, we wouldn’t be standing here today.”

Documents: He robbed for cash – and cigars Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

During a one-week span in 2017 police said Lorenzo Bratcher was involved in at least nine robberies. On Aug. 30, 2017, Bratcher robbed the United Dairy Farmers on Clifton Avenue, court documents say. The next day, he robbed UDF stores in Westwood, Pleasant Ridge and Mount Healthy, the documents say. During that Mount Healthy robbery, Bratcher displayed a handgun, asked for “everything in the drawers” – and then asked for “ﬁ lter tip Black & Mild cigars,” according to court documents. Bratcher, 25, also targeted several

Thorntons gas stations, according to court documents. The robberies happened between Aug. 30 and Sept. 6, 2017. Bratcher Bratcher was sentenced Monday in federal court in Cincinnati to 14 years in prison. Records show he pleaded guilty in May to two counts of using a gun during a violent crime. A second man accused of being involved in at least some of the robberies, 23-year-old Isaiah Buck, pleaded guilty last year. He is serving a sentence of more than eight years in prison.

Cincinnati bishops may face Vatican investigation Dan Horn Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Cincinnati's highest-ranking Roman Catholic church offi cials expect the Vatican to launch an investigation into how they handled complaints about the behavior of a priest who was later accused of raping an altar boy. The investigation would be among the fi rst of its kind in the United States since Pope Francis' announcement earlier this year he was revamping the Vatican's procedures for dealing with sexual abuse cases. Archbishop Dennis Schnurr told parishioners Sunday at St. Ignatius of Loyola in Green Township that he expects the Vatican to run the investigation through the Apostolic Nunciature in Washington, D.C. "He anticipates that will occur," church spokesman Mike Schafer confi rmed Wednesday. The focus of such an investigation would not be on the Rev. Geoff Drew, a former St. Ignatius pastor who now is in jail after being charged with raping an altar boy 30 years ago. Instead, the Vatican would examine whether Schnurr and Auxiliary Bishop Joe Binzer properly handled complaints they received about Drew. Pope Francis laid the groundwork for such investigations in May when he released new guidelines for bishops around the world in a document titled "Vos estis lux mundi," or "You are the light of the world." The guidelines, among other things, require bishops to aggressively enforce child protection rules and to move swiftly to discipline or remove priests accused of wrongdoing. The document came in response to years of criticism about the church's failure to act on abuse accusations and, in some cases, to cover them up. Schafer said offi cials don't know precisely how the investigation will be conducted or how long it may take because the process is new. He said church offi cials in Cincinnati expect the Vatican to appoint a bishop from outside the archdiocese to oversee the investigation and a former federal prosecutor to lead it. "They're investigating the bishops' accountability," Schafer said. "It's really about how did the bishops handle this." The pope's guidelines do not spell out possible consequences for bishops, but some action from the Vatican is possible if the investigation fi nds the bishops did not act properly. "There could be ramifi cations, or there may not be, depending on what the investigation fi nds," Schafer said. The Apostolic Nunciature, which essentially is the Vatican's embassy in

the United States, did not immediately return a call and email seeking comment. Schafer said the archdiocese would "cooperate in any way" with a Vatican investigation. The archdiocese's handling of Drew's case has been in the spotlight since July, when church offi cials announced he was being removed from St. Ignatius after parents complained the priest had sent text messages to a boy there. They said the texts were not sexual in nature, but the one-on-one communication violated the archdiocese's child protection rules. Soon after, however, church offi cials disclosed that they had received complaints in 2013 and 2015 about Drew while he was pastor at St. Maximilian Kolbe in Liberty Township. Those complaints involved physical contact with boys, such as rubbing shoulders and patting knees. Prosecutors in Butler County and Hamilton County determined Drew behavior may not have been appropriate, but it did not rise to the level of a crime. Parishioners at St. Ignatius were outraged they had not been told of the prior complaints about Drew. Church offi cials said Schnurr did not know about them because Binzer, who also served as the priest personnel director, had not told him about them. Schnurr removed Binzer of his personnel duties but kept him as auxiliary bishop. Weeks later, Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters announced that a former altar boy had accused Drew of raping him on multiple occasions between 1988 and 1991 at St. Jude's in Bridgetown. The boy, now 41, said he was 10 years old when the abuse began. Drew, who was not a priest at the time, led St. Jude's music ministry at the time and also taught music at Elder High School. Drew has pleaded not guilty to the rape charges. He faces up to life in prison if he is convicted.

As Hamilton County's government struggles to pay its bills, the three county commissioners are considering a sales tax hike. You can have your say at three public meetings in October. The tax hike would take the form of continuing a 0.25% sales tax set to expire in April 2020. Voters approved the tax in 2014 to pay for the $230 million in renovations to Union Terminal with the idea it would expire in 2020 fi ve years after it went into eff ect. If the commissioners decide to keep the 0.25% sales tax, Hamilton County's sales tax rate would remain at 7%. County offi cials project a $20 million budget shortfall for next year as a result of rising costs and decreased revenue from the state.

To pay for that, county staﬀ has proposed keeping the 0.25% tax on the rolls indeﬁ nitely after April 2020. The Hamilton County Board of Commissioners will decide by the end of October whether to increase the tax as part of Hamilton County's $276 million budget. The three public meetings the county commissioners will hold on the sales tax will be: Thursday, Oct. 3 Time: 6:30 p.m. Where: Sharonville Convention Center, 11355 Chester Road, Sharonville Tuesday, Oct. 8 Time: 6:30 p.m. Where: Silverton Town Hall, 6943 Montgomery Road, Silverton Thursday, Oct. 10 Time: 1:15 p.m. Where: Hamilton County Administration Building, 138 East Court Street, Room 605, Cincinnati

Go nuts in the kitchen with honey-roasted almonds Country fair kettle cinnamon pecans

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Yummy out of hand, as a salad or pumpkin pie garnish.

I had a somewhat desperate message on my phone machine from a reader who needed my recipe for honey-roasted almonds. “I can’t remember if you shared them in a class or in the paper. I’m having a party this coming Saturday and can’t fi nd my recipe!” “No worries,” I told her. That recipe has made the rounds both in print, my cable show and in classes and it’s front and center in my recipe hall of fame fi le so it’s always easy to fi nd. If you’ve never made these, try them. I think you’ll like the honey-roasted almonds so much that they’ll become a favorite at your house, too. I’m also sharing a recipe for country fair pecans. These are the ones you see being cooked in large kettles at fall fairs. Nuts are a perfect snack or light appetizer. Plus they can be made ahead. So you have my permission to, yes, go nuts in the kitchen!

Tip: Squirrel nuts away for holiday cooking Nuts should go on sale soon. Stock up and freeze for longer storage.

Cinnamon is a bark! ❚ Cinnamon comes from the inner bark of the Cinnamomum tree. ❚ Two popular varieties are Cassia/ Chinese cinnamon and Ceylon/Sri Lankan cinnamon. ❚ Most cinnamon sold in the U.S. is the cassia variety. ❚ Ceylon is slightly sweeter, more reﬁ ned, more expensive and a bit harder to ﬁ nd.

Ingredients 3 cups or a little more pecan halves, roasted (see above) ⁄ 3 cup evaporated milk

1 cup granulated sugar 2 tablespoons water 1 teaspoon vanilla ⁄ 4 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions Bring milk, sugar, water, vanilla and cinnamon to a gentle boil allowing sugar to dissolve. Add nuts and continue to cook until nuts are completely sugared with no syrup left. Pour onto sprayed cookie sheet. Let cool and break up. Store at room temperature, covered, up to 3 weeks.

Sports Princeton loses basketball coach Steve Wright to Cleveland State Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Princeton High School is looking for a new head basketball coach as Steve Wright is moving on to become video coordinator at Cleveland State under Vikings coach Dennis Gates. Wright confi rmed the move Tuesday morning. "Defi nitely excited for the opportunity Coach Gates has given me," Wright said. "It was hard to leave, but I had an unbelievable opportunity. My goal was to coach at the collegiate level. Coach Gates has given me that opportunity to fulfi ll my dream." In the meantime, Princeton has elevated varsity assistant Steve Green to interim coach eff ective immediately. Green has been part of the staff for the past 20 years. “The selection of Steve Green as interim coach is what is best for our student-athletes and what is best for Princeton at this time,” said Ron Bollmer, Princeton High School principal. “He knows the students, knows the program, and knows what it means to make a Viking diff erence.” Green, who is also a math teacher at Princeton Community Middle School, hopes to continue the tradition of excellence that the boys basketball team displays. “It’s an honor to be involved with the student-athletes who have a strong work ethic, dedication, and passion for the game of basketball,” said Green. “We are committed to providing our studentathletes with skills that will carry over

Roger Bacon junior running back Corey Kiner etched his name into the school record book Friday, Sept. 13 against Woodward. Kiner's second touchdown run of the ﬁ rst half and ensuing two-point conversion made him the all-time leading scor-

GLORY DAYS

Local track, ﬁ eld had great run in 1988-89 Mark Schmetzer

Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

After forgetting his uniform and spikes on the fi rst day of the 1989 Ohio high school state track-and-fi eld meet, Forest Park’s Calvin Bostic came up with a can’t-miss way to remember his gear the next day. “I slept in my uniform,” he told the Enquirer. “I didn’t want to forget anything. My spikes were with me. I had them with me the whole time.” Bostic’s strategy paid off . He won the 300-meter hurdles and long jump, fi lled the second leg on the championship 400 relay team and fi nished second by one-hundredth of a second in the 110 hurdles while the Lou Cynkar-coached Chargers were successfully defending their Class AA state championship at Ohio Stadium. Forest Park’s accomplishment was just one of several highlights enjoyed by local competitors and teams in 1989, the second year of a glorious two-year Greater Cincinnati run in Columbus. Princeton’s girls team, in Mar Starr’s last year of coaching before retirement, edged Springfi eld South by two points to win the Class AAA state championship while the Vikings boys were fi nishing second to Dayton Dunbar. That remains the only time one school produced a state champion and runnerup in the same year, according to former Princeton coach Ken Meibers. Individually, Cincinnati Academy of Physical Meibers Education senior Michelle McGruder became the fi rst girl to win the 100 dash four times. McGruder actually fi nished second in the Class AA race to Cleveland

Heights Beaumont’s Richelle Webb, but Webb was disqualifi ed for wearing a watch during the race, a rule created to keep runners from checking split times during distance races. “I had no idea I would do all this,” said McGruder, who won seven state titles in her career. “I’m glad the pressure is off now.” During a meet that was plagued by rain and delayed for 27 minutes at one point, Sycamore senior Glenn Terry successfully defended in 1989 his 1988 championships in the 110 high hurdles and 300 intermediate hurdles and overcame the pressure of facing Dunbar star Chris Nelloms. “It’s sweeter the second time because, mentally, it was much rougher,” Terry said. “I could not go a day without people saying ‘Nelloms’ this or ‘Nelloms’ that.” Other boys reaching the top level of the Class AAA award-winners stand was Northwest high jumper Derrick Childs and the Princeton 3,200 relay team of Gordon Benning, Ty Bates, Jason Williams and Joe Cooper. Mt. Healthy sophomore D’Andre Hill won the Class AAA girls 100, but it was Candice Campbell and Shannon Doforth who led Princeton to the team championship. Campbell ran with Tanya Upthegrove, Allyson Rogers and Renee Allen on the fi rst-place 800 relay team and fi nished fourth in the 200 and third in the long jump. Doforth won the high jump. The championship was the second in two sports for Allen, who played on Princeton’s 1987 Class AAA basketball title-winning team. “After we did not make it up to state in basketball, I decided to run track for the fi rst time and go out in style,” Allen said. “It feels great to win state titles in two sports.”

The Vikings overcame exchange problems in the 400 relay to win the 800. “The girls just said, ‘Don’t worry, Mrs. Starr. We’re going to win the 800,’” said Starr, who ran with Wilma Rudolph on the U.S. 400 relay team that fi nished third in the 1956 Melbourne Olympics. “They really wanted it. They were trying to make my last few days of teaching memorable. “Coach Meibers felt all season long that the girls could be up in there,” she added. “I’d just keep my fi ngers crossed. I knew we had the talent to do it, but you have to have all of the variables.” CAPE’s Jude Johnson won the Class AA boys 200 dash, but it was Bostic who stole the show while leading Forest Park to a second straight title, the fi rst time a local school won back-to-back championships since old Central High in 1950 and 1951.

Class championship led by Clinton Davis and Tony Watson. Davis won both hurdle events, Watson captured the 100 and the two joined David Mathis and J.J. Lampkin to win the 400 relay. Lampkin returned to join Bostic, James Littles and Carlton Gray in defending the 400 relay championship. “We just had kids that did not choke,” Cynkar said. “Some people get up here in the heated competition and choke.” The classifi cations were changed from A-AA-AAA to I-II-III in 1990, the same year Cincinnati’s brief stay at the top of state track ended.

Drew Barker of Conner (Kentucky) was on in 2014 and a former UC player of note played in 2012. Quarterback Gunner Kiel at the time was an LSU recruit after de-committing from Indiana, he then went to Notre Dame before ﬁ nishing as a Bearcat. Prater became the highest-ranked player UC has ever recruited (since such numbers began being kept) when he committed to Luke Fickell’s Bearcats in May along with his brother, Garyn, who transferred from Ohio State. “It’s the best of the best,” Wyoming coach Aaron Hancock said. “That’s big time! I’m going to go, I’ll ﬁ gure out a way. That’s a pretty cool atmosphere, I’ve watched it on TV every year.” The 6-foot-5, 190-pound dual-threat led Wyoming to the Ohio Division IV

state title last season with 2,181 passing yards for 28 touchdowns and 1,788 rushing yards for 32 scores. In the championship game alone, he ran for 242 yards and three scores and was 6-for-11 passing for two more touchdowns. Early on for the Cowboys he’s passed for 401 yards in two games for ﬁ ve touchdowns and ran for 179 yards with four more touchdowns. “He’s just a selﬂ ess kid and he works extremely hard,” Hancock said. “He’s very humble for his accolades and hungry to be the best he can be. He’s a topnotch kid and very much deserves the attention he’s receiving.” Johnson made headlines over the summer with his transfer from St. Xavier to Princeton. He wanted to graduate early to join Ohio State in January and St. Xavier does not permit early graduation. Johnson is the top-rated recruit not only in Ohio, but at his position in the nation.

Cincinnati Public Schools receives ‘D’ in state report card Max Londberg Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Cincinnati Public Schools received a D overall grade on its report card released Thursday by the Ohio Department of Education, the same grade it received last year. Cincinnati is among 11 school districts that received a D in Hamilton, Warren, Butler and Clermont counties. Five area districts received A’s: Madeira, Mariemont, Wyoming, Indian Hill and Mason. Thirty-one of 608 districts statewide earned the top grade. The overall grade reﬂ ects a district’s performance in six categories: achievement on state tests, student improvement on testing, success in closing achievement gaps in vulnerable student populations, improving struggling readers’ results, graduation rate and college and career readiness. Cincinnati Public performed best in closing achievement gaps for vulnerable students, earning a B. That’s an improvement from last year when it received an F. Eighteen schools within CPS improved in the category, the district said in a release, calling it the most notable achievement. “Results like this do not happen by accident,” said Superintendent Laura Mitchell in a statement. “They are the result of a lot of planning, commitment from teachers and staﬀ , and a laser-like focus on student achievement.” But the district didn’t improve in all areas. It received F’s in graduation rate, college and career readiness and test improvement. The four-year graduation rate in the

“The legislature has the power to ﬁ x these mistakes, and we need to do that immediately.” State Senator Teresa Fedor of Toledo On overhauling the state report card system

district, about 78%, is worse than statewide averages and those in similar districts, according to the state data. Clark Montessori, School for Creative and Performing Arts and Walnut Hills received A grades in the graduation category, but nine other city high schools received a D or F. Individual schools within districts also received an overall grade rating. Two Cincinnati Public schools received an A: Evanston Academy Elementary and Walnut Hills High. Five schools received B’s. Nineteen schools received C’s, the same number that received D’s. Twelve schools received F’s.

Stacey Hill-Simmons, the principal of Evanston Elementary, said by phone that the school’s success was due in part to a focus on student data. Last year, Evanston received a B. “We sell hope,” she said while also commending the work of educators in the building, located at 1835 Fairfax Ave. Some believe that state report cards are not a reliable indicator of school success. Adam Voight, the director of Cleveland State University’s Center for Urban Education, said in a statement that grades and other performance indicators are “much better measures of the

types of students schools serve. Schools with more disadvantaged (for example by poverty or disability) students perform worse, and this has little to do with anything happening in the school.” The current measures “fuel a vicious cycle” where schools with more disadvantaged students “look bad in the public eye,” Voight added. State sens. Teresa Fedor of Toledo and Tina Maharath of Columbus, both Democrats, called for overhauling the state report card system on Thursday. First implemented in 2013, the school report cards “penalize large and highpoverty districts, which they threaten with state takeovers,” Fedor said in a statement. “...The legislature has the power to fi x these mistakes, and we need to do that immediately.” Cincinnati Public’s performance index score, which measures districts’ performance on state testing in the third grade through high school, did show improvement in some areas. Eight schools earned B’s. Tat’s the highest number of CPS schools to earn a B or better in the past fi ve years. Three schools earned C’s, the same number as last year. Forty-fi ve schools earn D’s or F’s, slightly higher than the fi ve-year average. Two districts in Southwest Ohio earned A’s on their performance index: Madeira and Indian Hill. Thirty-fi ve districts in the local area earned B’s or C’s, and 34 earned D’s or F’s. Across the state, more than half of schools increased their performance index scores, and the four-year graduation rate reached a new high in 2018: 85.3%.

COMMUNITY NEWS Roller-skating icon elected to Hall-of-Fame Lifetime west side resident Tony Kissing has been elected to the Roller-Skating Hall of Fame in Lincoln NE, culminating 50-year career that produced numerous champions and catapulted an upstart local team to national prominence in the 1970s. Induction ceremonies were held in Spokane WA in August and Tony was celebrated locally at The Place, formally Colerain Skateland. A self-described marginal athlete, he combined a love aﬀ air of skating with unconventional training techniques and natural knack to inspire younger athletes. “The key component of our success came from Tony,” said Pam Ivers-Perrino, whose family launched an upstart speed skating team in 1968. “He had already established a reputation of producing winners.”

“He also had the unique capacity to create an environment to set goals and go after success at the highest level.” One criterion that paved the way to the Hall of Fame was developing innovating training regimens that helped rewrite the book on maximizing performance. “Many coaches used long-distance skating as their prime method of conditioning and training,” explained Tony, who worked at the United States Postal Service for 35 years following a stint in the military. “I felt that it if skaters could build explosiveness and endurance for sprinting, it would make them more eff ective in shorter races and relays.” The physics of skating were completely diff erent in the days of “wood and wheels.” Tony also preached the value of “staying on top of your skates” based on body type, strength and style, sacrifi cing speed for added balance in the corners for better overall success. In short order, this explosive, upstart team was dominating the podium at showcases throughout the country in the 1970s. Buoyed by national success, skaters from many other states such and New Jersey and Florida migrated to Cincinnati to take advantage of Tony’s tutelage. See COMMUNITY, Page 6B

But the trophies only tell half the story of Tony’s legacy. Marcia Yager, a 1992 Hall-of-Fame inductee, symbolizes the lasting impact Tony left on his athletes. “There is a lifetime of awards in my life, but left an imprint of concern, kindness and generosity for a little girl that came from a broken home.” Lonely and lost after her father died, Marcia became became a self-described rink-rat and eventually escalated to national championship status – backed by loans Tony had taken out for transportation, equipment, and a healthy dose of laughter and (sometimes tough) love. “We didn’t care about the national plaques. We wanted one from Tony Kissing. The inscription on mine read, ‘May God give you the strength in life as he did in these races.” Skating was strong in the family roots, as well. Daughter Kathy notched seven national championships, played with the Cincinnati Roller Derby team and coached the junior roller derby team. Son Mark traded in his skates for another avenue of pursuit, serving as a Hamilton County policeman prior to retiring. “I loved all of these kids and they are all winners,” said Tony, whose wife Sandy passed away in 2018. “She was the greatest champion of all, serving as transportation director, psychologist, nurse, and security director,” said Tony, who was often wedged up against hotel suite doors to keep male members from visiting female team mates at night. In the end, life goes in circles … and some things never change. Gregory Haas

The Chief 's award stood out in many ways, but particularly as a representative of a small Village with a big heart. Mayor Lofty is fond of the old boxing expression, "we punch above our weight" to describe Glendale's Fire Department and this is one more instance that shows the truth of that description. The Village of Glendale congratulates Chief Hardwick and thanks him for all he does for the Village of Glendale. Walter Cordes, Administrator, Village of Glendale

All welcome to join Franciscan Ministries for Oct. 5 Pet Blessing Franciscan Ministries invites the public to bring their pets to a “Blessing of the Pets” on Saturday, Oct. 5 at 11 a.m. The event, which is free and open to all, will be held near the St. Clare Chapel entrance at 80 Compton Road, Springﬁ eld Township. Father Dan Anderson of the Franciscan Friars of St. John the Baptist Province will lead the ceremony, which will include individual blessing of the animals. Light refreshments will follow. According to Elaine Ward, Executive Director for Franciscan Ministries, “Organizations around the world celebrate the annual Blessing of the Pets, which was started by St. Francis of Assisi more than 700 years ago. This is a wonderful opportunity for local residents to come together and share their love of animals.” While the event is open to all types of pets, all must be on leash or in a travel kennel. Revered as the patron saint of animals, St. Francis exhibited a great love of the environment and all creatures. He is the founder of the Franciscan Order

and is known for abandoning his life of luxury to devote himself to the church. For more information about the event, contact Franciscan Ministries at (513) 761-1697. Ginny Hizer, Franciscan Ministries

The Cincinnati Chapter SAR revisits 1788 The Columbia Settlement in Southwest Ohio began on November 18, 1788. A ﬂ atboat of 26 brave souls, led by Major Benjamin Sites, pulled to the Kentucky side of the Ohio River, just past the mouth of the Little Miami River, and cautiously sent a canoe full of men across to scout for hostile Native American said to be waiting in ambush. None were found. The women and others were quickly brought ashore. A prayer of thanksgiving was held in the thickets near the shore. When the prayers had ended, the men set about constructing what would

be known Columbia. This was the ﬁ rst of three settlements of John Cleves Symmes’ Miami Purchase. Columbia soon blossomed into the largest of these three communities. The Cincinnati Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution (CCSAR) assisted the Heritage Village Museum, in Sharon Woods, in bringing the Columbia settlement back to life on September 7, 2019. Compatriots Greg Ballman, Gary Duﬃ eld, Brad Jarard and George Stewart helped turn back the year to 1788. Lead by Compatroit Jarard, demonstrations were given on Revolutionary War uniforms and weapons. There was period music, log hewing, hearth cooking and fabric spinning on display. Major Benjamin Sites and Sergeant William Brown made appearances throughout the park. With other interpreters in the area, it was a very entertaining afternoon.
