The city's plan to gain revenue to accomplish some of its long-term goals may take a bit longer than some expected. During the city council’s December meeting, members took a step toward acquiring the West Virginia Municipal Home Rule Program for Milton. City leaders read a new ordinance that will allow for power to lower B&O taxes and apply a 1 percent sales tax. However, the creation of a new ordinance may have been premature, said Mayor Tom Canterbury. "We sort of jumped the gun with the ordinance," he said. "The ordinance will have to be part of the public hearing." The application for Home Rule must be submitted by June 2014. Before it's sent, city officials must hold two public hearings and approve the ordinance for altering B&O Tax and introducing the 1 percent sales tax. "No one wants taxes to be raised any way, shape or form, and people may fight it, but I think the extreme of what it can do, will outweigh that," Canterbury said. "Anybody that pops off the interstate and fills up with gas will benefit us." The mayor continued, "If you are truly opposed to it, you can drive to somewhere like Barboursville that doesn't have the tax - this is just going to be a way of life, and it's only a penny on every dollar." Canterbury believes, if approved, Home Rule will help the SEE MILTON ON PAGE 3

Cabell endures arctic wind chills By Justin Waybright justin@thecabellstandard.com
Sub-zero temperatures and bone-chilling wind ripped through Cabell County, bringing with it an onslaught of school closings, power outages and accidents. Temperatures dropped 40-degrees on Monday, from 43-degrees to a frigid minus 2-degrees by midnight. Residents awoke on Tuesday to find the outdoor temperature was minus 4-degrees and wind chill of minus 20-degrees, according to the National Weather Service in Charleston. More than 671 power outages were reported in the county on Tuesday morning, according to Appalachian Power. On Monday there were 170 power outages reported in the county with many of those customers back online by noon the same day. Severe weather conditions closed Cabell County schools and 53 other county school systems in the state on Monday and Tuesday. A. Gordon Merry, Cabell

Mallard ducks found open water and a place to weather the frigid temperatures earlier this week in the pond next to Blenko's Visitors Center in Milton. County Office of Emergency Management and EMS director, said that his office and Cabell County emergency responders kept a close watch on the arctic weather system as it moved through the area. Residents who were without heat and water did
have some problems. “We had a house fire in Altizer due to someone using a blow torch to thaw water lines,” he said. “People need to know not to use an open flame to thaw water lines.” Pea Ridge PSD Manager Mol-

Drug problem tops list for 2014 Legislative Session By Justin Waybright justin@thecabellstandard.com
HOW TO REACH US
l Volume 116 l Issue 1
Keeping the tight budget in mind, local senators and delegates are shifting their focus toward recouping the loss generated by the drug epidemic. The 2014 legislative session has begun, and members of the House and Senate are bringing ideas to the table in an effort to be proactive in tackling the nationwide problem. Sen. Evan Jenkins (R) is working to strengthen his relationship
with law enforcement officials and prosecutors. "I want to continue to be a leader in the fight against the drug crisis," he said. "I have been working with local law enforcement officials, prosecutors and others to develop legislation that will help address the epidemic." In Cabell County, the jail bill continues to be a problem. The county paid $2.77 million in 2010, $2.85 million in 2011 and $3.45 million last year, according to budget records. Nonviolent drug offenders make up the group that local pol-
icy makers plan to address. Del. Kelli Sobonya (R) aims to take a proactive approach. "We need to look at why people are abusing drugs and we need to focus more on prevention and resources for young people," she said. Del. Carol Miller (R) agreed. "It's important for those who are drug addicted to have rehabilitation and recovery resources, because we have a serious drug problem in the state, and we need to make sure these are funded properly," she said. "We need to help these people become pro-
ductive citizens." The delegate pointed to the recurring problem with Cabell County's rising jail bill. "We spend a lot of money on incarcerations, but if we are proactive, we can help the offenders make that positive step in life, which could be positive for Cabell County," Miller said. Del. Jim Morgan (D) is a member of the Regional Jail and Correctional Facility Authority. He said board members have been looking at ways to lower the cost SEE SESSION ON PAGE 4

“THE BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT “ Thought for the week: Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (KJV) I want you to think about the best Christmas gift you received this year. Then, I want you to consider this - the snow came down overnight, all roads were slick and treacherous, but you had to be at work on this Thursday. You saw a car over the hill, you passed by a truck stopped with a dented fender (with policemen in cars behind). As on the slick highway you go, did it enter your mind to say – God help me get to work? This is called prayer - talking to God is the most important gift
you can give yourself. Just look upward to the sky - it may be gray and overcast with snow this day, but He’s still listening to you. Psalms 19:3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. You must have believed God would get you there or you would not have asked Him. Many people obey their conscience, yet fail to believe in God or recognize that they are accountable to Him. Just look at the snow as it floats softly down and covers the ground, Just look in the face of a newborn baby, listen to the wind, and watch a bird fly. How can you not believe there is a God? Hebrews 1:10 And, thou, Lord in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine

A NEW YEAR A new year is upon us and we do not know what lies ahead. If we should see the future we all probably would just want to go back and not forward - but we all must go forward and look to the future with hope and confidence in the providence of Almighty God. God holds our futures in
His hands and we should all have faith in Him and His care for us. Most of us lack the faith we need for the future and that is the problem. We need to forget the things which are behind and look to the future. Forget the old year, nothing can be done about the past but you can make a difference in the future.

The Cabell Standard hands. Just saying - the best gift you can give yourself this New Year would be to trust and believe. Then you shall have peace and happiness all the rest of the year. He will be with you thru anything and everything you go thru in the future. That is a promise, as night turns to day. 2 Corinthians 4:6 For God who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Once you believe and read the Bible, God will find a job for you to do to honor Him. We all are given a talent - just as we are given the sense to see, hear, feel, smell and taste. This Nation is in need of anyone who will stand up and do His will. Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. (KJV) Prayer: Lead each of us, our Father into this New Year to do thy will, with honor and trust in you. Amen.
Every year for several years now I have spent the New Year in church praying in the New Year. I realize we can pray in the New Year at home but it is so good to be with like-believers and share the needs and concerns of others and take them to the throne of God. We should ask the Lord for His blessings upon us and our family members and for those around the world but especially for the ones who do not know the Lord. How terrible to start the New Year in sin, wickedness and evil. The New Year is a blessing and we should all be thankful for life and health. A few times I have not been able to stay at the midnight watch service because of weather. One New Years eve I remember leaving at half time, that's what I call the break. I left at 9:30 and went home and I am glad I did. By midnight the roads were all icy and dangerous. Church is a good place to be on New Year’s eve and especially praying for the decisions we will be making in the new year and for those in need. Don't forget the plans to do better in the New Year. I don't make resolutions; I just hope to improve on me.

Cassell wins annual Tudor’s Biscuit World Holiday truck giveaway Tudor’s Biscuit World, a West Virginia company, held its annual truck drawing at the WV State Capitol on Monday, Dec. 23. Out of the over one-half million entries that were collected throughout the Tri-State for this promotion Bob Cassell of Catlettsburg, Ky. was the lucky customer who will be enjoying a brand new Ford F-150 in his driveway. Tudor’s Biscuit World customers have been registering to win the New Ford F-150 and one of 65 $100 gift cards since Nov. 1, 2013. This annual holiday tradition
allows the state-wide restaurant company to give back to a devoted customer base, says Oshel Craigo, CEO of Tudor’s Biscuit World. “We enjoy an amazing level of customer loyalty,” Craigo says. “Every year we look forward to this opportunity to show our appreciation for our customers’ remarkable commitment to Tudor’s Biscuit World.” When asked what it felt like to win a new truck just two days before Christmas, Cassell said, “I’m just speechless. This is such a great surprise for Christmas”. Additionally, Cassell stated that he
MILTON FROM PAGE 1 residents of Milton prosper and will draw more businesses to the city. "If you have a business in Milton, wouldn't you like to see new streets, curbs, sidewalks and neighborhoods with no abandoned and dilapidated houses?" he asked. "These are some of the most important things, but they get shoved to the back to keep our daily operations going - Home Rule would give us more leverage and make things easier and quicker to get done." City Recorder Phyllis Smith agreed. "This will help with the financial part too," she added. Milton officials recently estimated what the 1 percent tax could do for the city. The numbers were higher than expected. "We did calculations on just some of the businesses, and it's surprising to us what it could generate," Canterbury said. "It was an eye-opener for us." "This is like filing for a grant project, and we still have a lot of questions on it," the mayor said.
"In mid-January, we should have the timing laid out." The state Home Rule board will accept up to 16 applicants. Milton officials are hoping their city is one of those. "If this passes, it will allow us to get street paving and a lot of things done to benefit the city," Canterbury said. "It's about helping us to do things to benefit the community that we can't afford right now." One such benefit could reflect in the amount of B&O taxes that business owners pay. The current rate of 1 percent per $100 has not been raised in more than 25 years. If Home Rule moves forward, the owners could see a drop in this tax. "We're willing to lower some areas," the mayor said. "This shows we're willing to sacrifice something to gain something." Charleston, Wheeling, Bridgeport and Huntington currently participate in the Home Rule program. Milton officials will soon announce the first public hearing regarding the new ordinance and program.

manner," Sobonya said. Miller added, "We'll have to be good stewards of our money, and it's important we revisit programs that show the different ways we spend money in the state." Another way to make the actions regarding the budget and laws more public could center on implementing the Job Impact Statement, a piece of legislation aimed at showing whether a bill is good or bad for economic growth and job creation. "This is one of the issues I've worked on for many of years," Jenkins said. "Too often legislation gets passed without legislators knowing it'd have detrimental impact on jobs." The senator continued, "I always put jobs top priority, and this bill would help that." Sobonya added, "We want to remove the barriers that keep jobs out of West Virginia, not create more." In Cabell County, Marshall University remains a focus of House and Senate members. "The University ... we have to be mindful of their money," Miller said. Sobonya agreed. The delegate noted the importance that should
be placed on students and the price of education. "Marshall University is a large employer and we have to make sure their budget cuts are strategic, because if there are higher education budget cuts that occur, tuition often increases," Sobonya said. "We've got to protect our students." Like his fellow House and Senate members, Morgan is aware of the tight state budget. He believes an increase on certain taxes could result from it. "There's no question that West Virginia will have budget issues and possible taxes that could be issued," the delegate said. "The taxes could be raised on tobacco, alcohol - that may be something that comes." The delegates and senators representing Cabell County encourage residents to bring their concerns forward.

"I would like to see sentencing changes done and parole boards to work faster. "This could save money over time." Another way to recoup financial loss in an already squeezed state budget could revolve around making spending more transparent. Jenkins said, "I want to make sure we don't solve budget woes on the backs of taxpayers - I want to address fiscal concerns and challenges by tightening the state's belt, and not by putting new taxes on citizens."

WV lacking funds for highway efforts By George Hohmann West Virginia Press Association
SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. – With a stagnant population base, rising costs and fewer federal dollars, the state Department of Transportation is cutting back on investments in new roads, according to the state Transportation Secretary Paul Mattox Jr. Money is the real issue because costs keep increasing and revenue is declining, Mattox said. “We’re prioritizing our projects, trying to make our money go as far as possible. Previously we always put expansion projects and funding for preservation of our existing system at about 50-50, with about $250 million for expansion and $250 million for small bridge replacement and repair of slips and slides,” Mattox said on Monday at the Legislative Lookahead sponsored by The Associated Press, the West Virginia Press Association and Marshall University. Facing a $100 million-a-year reduction in federal funds – from $500 million to $400 million – “We’re looking at 70 percent for preservation and only 30 percent going toward new four-lane expansion and major bridge projects,” Mattox said. “So you’ll be seeing a shift. One reason we’re focusing more on preservation is much of the system is on a 32-year paving cycle now. Our goal is a 12-year cycle. So one reason we’re changing is to address the paving issue. The interstate system is on about a six-year cycle. About two-thirds of the roads in the state only qualify for state funds. It’s that system that’s on a 32-year paving cycle.” Finding funds for such projects could be a topic of discussion when the state Legislature’s 60day session convened Wednesday. Heather Henline, publisher of the Inter-Mountain in Elkins, asked Mattox if the shift in spending emphasis will affect the Corridor H construction schedule. Mattox said that until Congress passed the most recent federal highway bill, a formula determined that West Virginia would
receive $32 million annually for Corridor H construction. “They took that away” in the most recent federal highway bill but “we made the decision to keep that funding at the $32 million level,” Mattox said. “With the additional state match, it is about $40 million a year. That’s in our six-year plan. So the 70-30 mix won’t impact Corridor H.” “There’s still about $1 billion of construction left to complete,” Mattox said. With funding at $40 million a year, Corridor H is expected to be completed in 2036. However, “since we have $40 million a year dedicated to Corridor H construction, is there a way we could work with the private sector to get it built sooner rather than later by having a contractor design and construct the highway and we would pay for it over time? That’s a concept we’re looking at.” Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin’s Blue Ribbon Highway Commission has determined the state has more than $1 billion in highway needs. The commission’s report was scheduled to be released in May. Randolph County Commissioner Mike Taylor, who serves on the commission, said it is hoped the final report will be presented to Tomblin by the end of this month. Mattox thinks few people really understand the scope of the problem. “Our biggest challenge is we maintain the sixth-largest highway system in the country,” Mattox said. “There are some who say the department needs to be more efficient. But West Virginia ranks as the second-most efficient highways department in the country. I think No. 2 in the country is a pretty good place to be.” Taylor, who serves on the commission’s Revenue Subcommittee, said, “One of the biggest challenges in front of this commission was to determine possible revenue sources to increase funding for repairs and construction.” Possibilities include a $1 billion bond issue, increasing Division of Motor Vehicles fees, taxes on auto repairs, and higher West Virginia Turnpike tolls. Taylor said people who spoke at the

Mattox said, “We could use any type of additional revenue.” He recalled that a few years ago, when it was learned the state would receive $211 million in federal stimulus money, he called
a meeting of his senior staff. “It took 20 minutes to spend that money — $211 million was a drop in the bucket,” he said. In early 2011, Gov. Tomblin vetoed a bill that would have raised DMV fees by a total of $43 million a year. State Sen. Bob Beach, D-
Monongalia, who chairs the state Senate Transportation Committee, said he does not believe the Legislature will consider raising DMV fees this year because “there’s still some pain from last time.” Beach said he has heard that the Monongalia County Commission plans to propose homerule legislation that would give county governments a mechanism to fund road, water, sewage and Internet infrastructure projects. Mattox said the lack of population growth in West Virginia is also a problem when trying to maintain a large highway system. “Our biggest issue is a 1.8-million population base,” Mattox said, adding that the state’s population is expected to remain at 1.8 million in 20 years. The Legislative Lookahead was hosted by Marshall University on its South Charleston campus.

‘Future Fund’ seen as good idea, but there’s no consensus on details By George Hohmann West Virginia Press Association
December was a very busy month for the Barboursville Lions Club. On Saturday, Dec. 7, the club cooked breakfast for the Village of Barboursville's Breakfast With Santa event at the Barboursville Senior Center in Barboursville. On the following Monday, Dec. 9, club members provided a free brunch for seniors at the center. These are two projects that the club has done for several years. Dec. 14 was another busy day for the club. Ten hours that day were donated to the Salvation Army in the bell-ringing program. Club members, with the help of boy scout troop 88 and their parents, rang the bells at K-Mart and Kroger on Route 60 from 10:00 am until 8:00 pm that day. The next project of the month involved collecting, sorting, and organizing food baskets. Non-perishable food items were collected at two local elementary schools, the Village of Barboursville Elementary and Davis Creek Elementary and brought to the Barboursville Baptist Church to
sort and organize on Friday, Dec. 20. The following morning club members purchased food items such as hams, turkeys, milk, eggs, potatoes, stuffing, oranges, etc. to go with the non-perishable food items. A total of 17 food baskets were delivered that morning to those in need. The final project of the month was providing gifts to the veterans at the Barboursville Veterans' Home. This was done as a small token of our appreciation for their service to our country. The Barboursville Lions Club continues to serve the community in many ways in its 71st year as a service organization. We encourage everyone who has a desire to serve their community to consider joining them. The club meets on the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month at 6:30 pm at the Barboursville Community Building, 721 Central Avenue.

SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. — State Senate President Jeff Kessler’s push for a state fund that squirrels away some severance tax money for future needs has some industry support, but there’s no agreement on the details. Kessler’s “Future Fund” idea was among the proposals discussed Monday, Jan. 6, at the Legislative Lookahead sponsored by The Associated Press, the West Virginia Press Association and Marshall University at Marshall’s South Charleston campus. The proposal is expected to be a major topic of debate when the state Legislature’s 60-day session convened Wednesday. “I call the Future Fund ‘The Why Not Fund,’” Kessler said. “What if legislators had not spent every single penny of the severance tax every year? “If they had set aside just 1 percent of the severance tax starting five years ago, we would have nearly $8 billion. If we were getting 10 percent interest on $8 billion, we would get $800 million a year. We would be halfway there with our highway needs, or teacher pay. We would have $800 million available every year.” Kessler said his proposal wouldn’t set aside any severance tax money until the tax raised a threshold amount. “I’m not affecting one dollar in this year’s budget,” he said. Kessler further proposed putting a state constitutional amendment on the ballot that would set a procedure for deciding how to use money in the fund. The Marshall County Democrat took a bipartisan group of legislators to North Dakota in August to learn how that state set up its Legacy Fund. That fund amassed $1.3 billion in 20 months, he said.
West Virginia Senate President Jeff Kessler, at right, talks about his proposed Fund Future during the West Virginia AP Legislative Lookahead Monday at Marshall University's South Charleston's Campus. Joining Kessler were, from right, West Virginia Oil and Natural Gas Association Executive Director Corky DeMarco, West Virginia Center for Budget and Policy Executive Director Ted Boettner and, not pictured, West Virginia Coal Association President Bill Raney. West Virginia Press Association Photo “For 70 years, North Dakota lost population each and every year,” Kessler said. “Does that sound familiar? I just read that this past year, West Virginia and Maine were the only two states that actually lost population. Guess what state led the nation in population growth: North Dakota! Why not us, why not now?” Corky DeMarco, executive director of the West Virginia Oil and Natural Gas Association, said he has no objection to a Future Fund as long as the industry’s taxes aren’t raised. West Virginia’s natural resource extraction industries compete with Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky and New York, he said. “I think the concept is great,” DeMarco said. “I think we should have been doing this 75 years ago.” Ted Boettner, executive director of the West Virginia Center for Budget and Policy, said some severance taxes from all non-renewable natural resource industries should go into the fund. The center is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization funded by labor unions, foundations and others.

“Do we want to be 49th or do we want to be sure we’re building a sustainable economy?” Boettner asked. “We don’t want to repeat the past. That’s why it’s so important we get this right. This (Future Fund) helps us have assets. It can pay out more, the more industries that are included.” DeMarco said, “To leave one industry out and tax another, I’ll leave that to the folks who run the Senate and House. What I’m concerned about is West Virginia maintaining a competitive advantage and not a disadvantage because of its tax structure.” Bill Raney, president of the West Virginia Coal Association, said, “We can’t stand an increase in any taxes. “We’re pleased with the idea of saving taxes,” he said. “I agree we should have done it years ago. We’re challenged right now. We’re challenged with our tax structure – our tax takes us out of the competitive world market.” Many of the industry’s challenges come from Washington, D.C. and are “out of our control,” Raney said.

Christian's Sports Beat: Finding another gear
By: Christian Deiss
Two years ago, I saw something that I knew was going to be special. I was in the stands at Hurricane High School as the Hurricane Redskins were taking on the George Washington High School Patriots in high school football, when I saw Ryan Switzer, a junior running back for the Patriots find another gear after he broke into clean air scoring a touchdown on a 56-yard run. Since then he has continued to find that extra gear, winning the Kennedy Award two times, which goes to the top high school football player in West Virginia and being named an All-Ameri-
can Punt Returner after his just concluded freshman season for the North Carolina Tar Heels. A week before Switzer played in the 2013 Belk Bowl in Charlotte, NC on Dec. 28, against the University of Cincinnati Bearcats, I got a chance to talk to Ryan while he was in town visiting his family in Charleston. I started things off by asking him what it was like playing for UNC, “It has been very fun. When I was recruited to play at UNC, I loved the coaching staff and I loved the Chapel Hill area and the school. It’s been a great experience for my first year and I can’t wait for the next three years” he said. Switzer was recruited by a number of major colleges such as Penn State, UNC and West Virginia among others, before choosing the Tar Heels prior to his senior season at George Washington. I wanted to know the difference playing in high school and college and Switzer told me, “I think the biggest difference between the two is the speed of the college game. College is a lot faster and the guys are a lot bigger. There is also a lot more prep
work, like watching film. A lot more that goes into a game in college than in high school.” During the regular season for the Tar Heels Switzer had an outstanding freshman year, returning four punts for touchdowns, averaging over 20 yards for his 21 returns, catching 29 passes for over 300 yards and three touchdowns and tossing a touchdown on an option play. When the season started Switzer was third on the Tar Heel depth chart for returning punts, but moved up to first after getting the chance to show the coaches what he was made of. In the Belk Bowl, Switzer scored his fifth touchdown on a punt return, tying the NCAA record for a single season. The 86-yard touchdown return got Switzer the Most Valuable Player award for the game as the Tar Heels beat the Bearcats, 39 to 17. I asked Ryan what it is like playing in front of a worldwide audience, “That’s a perk of playing college football at a BCS school, a lot more people get to watch you, not only the people in the stands but everyone across the country. Knowing that there
so slow down, look well ahead and allow yourself a lot of braking time." Like Merry, McComas urged those who don't have to be out in the cold and wintery weather, to stay inside. The sheriff issued a statement regarding homeless population in the area. "If you see them out, call the sheriff's department, EMS office and any public service agency, and we'll check on them - just don't call 911 unless it's an emergency," he said. The National Weather Service in Charleston issued a Wind Chill Warning until 3 p.m. Tuesday. "A Wind Chill Warning means the combination of very cold air and strong winds will
create dangerously low wind chill values. This will result in frost bite and lead to hypothermia or death if precautions are not taken,” according to the weather service. During the two day arctic blast the state experienced wind chills minus 20-degrees in Elkins, minus 24-degrees in Beckley, minus 20-degrees in Huntington and minus 22-degrees in Charleston. As of noon Tuesday, no shelters for those without heat and electric had been activated. "If a massive power outage occurs, we will open shelters," Merry said. "I'm hoping people will heed warnings and just stay home." Those in need stayed at the
Christian interviews George Washington standout Ryan Switzer during a recent visit to Charleston. Courtesy photo are thousands of eyes on you during the game means you have to play a little harder. You have to make sure you do your job so you don’t mess up in front of a lot of people.” When I play soccer or run I like to have my family and friends cheering for me. I asked Switzer how important his family has been in his young but notable career, “My family has helped me get me to where I am at now, es-
pecially in the recruiting process, taking me to the different campuses and football camps. They have always been in the stands when I play, they are my best support staff and I am thankful to have them.” When I saw Ryan return the punt against Cincinnati it was like a flashback to the first time I saw him play at Hurricane and I know I will see him find another gear again… soon.
Huntington City Mission. The organization has raised its white flag, signifying open doors for all who need a warm shelter. Merry issued a warning to drivers who ventured out in this arctic weather. "Make sure you have blankets, water, jumper cables, kitty litter, the cell phone charged, and tell someone where you're going, so a loved can be aware," he said. McComas added, "Carry survival kits in your car and let someone know that you are leaving and what time you're
going, also know that a lot of the county has cell phone coverage, but some areas don't." To learn of any activated shelters or local emergency news, follow the Cabell County 911 and the Cabell County Sheriff's Department on Facebook.
ARCTIC FROM PAGE 1 because as long as water is moving, it won't freeze. Be careful when you thaw lines - start out slow." She said the PSD received several calls Monday evening and responded to the calls as needed. “There were a lot of frozen lines and main line breaks that started Monday evening," Shadd said. Merry was thankful the area saw less than a half-inch of snow during the two-day period. "Thank goodness we didn't get a big snow and have a big power outage, but with it being this cold, we could see people start blowing power grids with heaters," he said. Cabell County Sheriff Tom McComas said his department was ready to respond to calls as needed. He expected phone lines to ring as temperatures continue to plummet. "We haven't had bad winters with these temperatures in 20 years, but extraordinary circumstances require extraordinary service," he said. "We're experienced, but a lot of younger drivers are not accustomed to it, and you must assume any discoloration on the roadways is ice,

Another New Year's Eve at the City Mission By Trudy Black trudyblack@thecabellstandard.com

For the past four years, I have spent New Year's Eve at the Huntington City Mission - along with many folks from Sunrise Temple Baptist Church in Ona. Many wonder why we would give up our evening to go to the mission. There are so many individuals who need a little help. Men, women and children who are staying at the mission... and even more 'street' people living homeless somewhere in Huntington and surrounding areas. As we were setting up tables, several people came in to collect breads, canned food, and frozen meats from workers at the mission. One man, unaware that I was not a worker with the mission, said, 'Thank you so much… You don't know how much this means to me... I never, ever thought I'd have to ask for help." I replied, "We all need help some time... and we never know when we will be the ones asking for it." He left with several boxes of food. While waiting on the pizzas - all donated by CSX - we made sure chips, pop and ice were on the table. Coffee was ready for anyone needing to warm up. The door prize table was filled with sweatshirts, t-shirts, candy, makeup, puzzle books, kid's stuff and ... well, you name it, pretty much something for everyone to choose from after they were lucky enough to hit 'BINGO'. Once the party began 'dwindling down' we asked that everyone who had not won at bingo, to come to the prize table where
Just a few of the more than thirty people who came out to help serve folks at the annual New Year’s Eve party at the mission.
Several youngsters from Sunrise Temple Baptist Church were on-hand to carry pizza, bags of chips and glasses of pop to those attending the party. they could pick out something to take with them. Over 100 'goody bags' were given out. All filled with snacks, hot chocolate packets, candy bars, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, a stamped envelope, cough drops, lip balm and so much more. The mission is filled with a variety of people. There’s the little autistic child who was morethan-ready for pizza. There’s also the man in the wheelchair and the woman who lost her job. Living paycheck to paycheck, she just couldn't make ends meet. Then, there’s the little old fella who has been at every New Year's Eve party that I've been to... always so grateful - for so little. We really don't think of the
small things that someone at the mission - or on the streets - may need. The smallest thing...much of what we take for granted. There are many who must fight demons every day. Be it alcohol and drugs or wars that are relived in their minds, every time they close their eyes. But, for a couple of hours on New Year's Eve, all of these people came together to enjoy an evening of food, fellowship and fun. Special thanks must go to CSX and the more-than thirty volunteers from Sunrise Temple who came out to help with the party. Also to all of the friends and neighbors who contributed so much in order for the party to be a success.

The Cabell Standard
Midland boys try to find shooting touch By Chris Stadelman chris@theputnamstandard.com
Cabell Midland has a 1-3 record early in the season, but the reason for the slow start surprises Coach Matt Stead a little bit. The Knights are getting good looks at the basket, he said, they’re just not knocking them down the way Stead expected. The problem was particularly acute in a 63-48 loss to Logan on Dec. 28. Stead said the team missed 28 shots inside of 7 feet in the 15point defeat. “We played a really solid game,” he said. “We need to get our confidence up. We’ve got good shooters, but so far we’re not showing it.” After a tough opening loss at Huntington, the Knights bounced back with a victory over St. Albans. A week later against Parkersburg, however, Stead said the team didn’t show the same passion he’d seen against the Red Dragons. “We just didn’t play the way I envisioned this team playing,” he said. “We didn’t execute down the stretch. We just didn’t play hard enough.” He said some “good, spirited practices” after that led to the stronger performance against Logan.
Cabell Midland’s Mark Wilcox had 13 points against Parkersburg on Dec. 20. File photo. In four December games, the Knights averaged just 50.5 points per game, well below what Stead expected from an up-tempo, good-shooting squad. “I thought 60 minimum,” he noted. “We’re getting good shots, we’re just not hitting them.” It’s possible more regular game
action will help improve those performances. A sporadic schedule becomes more defined, starting with two games in three nights this week against Ripley and Princeton. “From the kid’s point of view, that’s what they like, playing more games,” Stead said.
Cabell Midland’s boys’ basketball team lost to Parkersburg 65-50 and Logan 63-48. Keegan Adkins (50) scored 10 against Parkersburg, while Coy Petit (12) led the way with 15 against Logan. File photo. George Washington comes to Midland on Jan. 11 in a key Mountain State Athletic Conference contest. “We lost to them in overtime up there last year in a game we really should have won,” Stead said. One of the keys for the Knights
will be stopping GW star Jon Elmore, who scored 44 points last week in a victory over Logan. Mark Wilcox had 13 points and Keegan Adkins 10 against Parkersburg, while Coy Petit led the way with 15 against Logan.
Lady Knights will put perfect record to the test By Chris Stadelman chris@theputnamstandard.com
The Cabell Midland Lady Knights boast a perfect record early this season, but that unblemished mark will be tested in the coming weeks. Cabell Midland started 4-0, with the closest contest a seasonopening 15-point victory at Parkersburg. Two other victories, over Ripley and Lincoln County, came
by 20 points each. But Wednesday’s game against Huntington, a state title contender ranked seventh in the state, should go a long way toward showing the Lady Knights where they are early in the season, Coach Matt Adkins said. The Lady Knight are ranked 10th after their solid start. “Huntington will be our first big test,” Adkins acknowledged. He said the fairly easy early schedule is a mixed blessing.
“It helps and it hurts,” Adkins said. “You can get complacent, not having to dig deep in the tank. It’s important not to get settled knowing someone is going to push us.” At the same time, the Lady Knights have had the opportunity to work on a few things and continue improving. “I think the girls have come together and played as a team,” Adkins said. “The effort is there. We’re fine-tuning what we’re
doing and still learning. We’re fortunate to have some upperclassmen who are a little further along than some teams.” He said even an 80-8 victory over Point Pleasant provided some important moments. “It’s important how you react to stuff,” he said. “They never quit, they never got down, they never played dirty. I have a lot of respect for them.” Adkins said his girls know the tables can turn and they can be on
the wrong side of a blowout, so it’s a learning experience. “In our conference, any team can beat you on any given night,” he said. After the rescheduled game against Huntington, Cabell Midland has a home game Jan. 10 against Princeton, then travels to George Washington on Jan. 14. Home games against Riverside and Woodrow Wilson will be played back-to-back on Jan. 16 and 17.
