MaureenA.Kennedyknew itwas a sign.

The Hyde Park resident saidwhile viewing a building thathad formerly been the locationof McKinley School, she sawcurtains around the stage areaadorned with the image of Celt-ic knots.

The school, which had closedseveralyearsearlier,wasunderconsiderationasapossible loca-tion for a new Irish HeritageCenter.

Kennedy said the image onthe curtains was appropriate. ACelticknot is typicalof Irishart,she said.

Call it the luck of the Irish,

but following a number of dis-cussions with the city and otherrepresentatives, the 44,000square foot building opened asthe Irish Heritage Center ofGreater Cincinnati in Novem-ber 2009.

“There hadn’t been a (Irish)center, but for decades peoplehadwantedone,” saidKentCov-ey, who alongwithKennedy is avolunteer at the center.

In addition to the stage, thebuilding includes a library and

museum, music and dancerooms and even “a pub room.”

It has served as the locationfor a number of venues, mostrecently a performance by theIrish rock band “Black47.”

“We try to create the cultureand heritage of Ireland,” saidKennedy, who serves as artisticdirector.

The age of the building datesback to shortly after the CivilWar. An additional wing of thebuilding was added in 1917.

To provide funds for mainte-nance of the building, the IrishHeritage Center holds an annu-al “Green Tie Affair.”

Dozens of hauntedhouse attractions open upeach October throughoutGreater Cincinnati in thehopes of scaring the pantsoff thrill seekers.

From the Dent School-house to the USS Night-mare, today’s commercial

hauntedhouse in-dustry canthank theold WSAIradio sta-tion andthe Syca-more-DeerPark Jay-

cees for setting the foun-dation for local horror.

“We put on the firstcommercial hauntedhouse in theUnited Statesin 1970,” said Cincinnatigarden expert DennyMcKeown,who organizedthe nation’s first haunt forthe Jaycees and the radiostation, which was basedin Price Hill at the time.

“I had done a very suc-cessful fundraiser for theSycamore-Deer Park Jay-cees and I got a call fromthe new programdirectoratWSAIwhosaidhewant-edtodoahauntedhousetoraise money for charity,and he asked me to help.

“I jumped all over it,”he said.

McKeown recruitedvolunteers from the Jay-cees, as well as a teacherand students from ElderHigh School, and went toworkbuildingthehauntedhouse in a home on St.Claire Avenue in Clifton.

“We made a lot of mis-takes that firstyear, itwastrial and error, butwe stillmanaged to make $21,000forcharity.Thatwasquitea lot ofmoney back then,”he said.

PriceHill resident RoyHotchkiss, whose brotherwas the Elder art teacherwho supplied students tohelp with the hauntedhouse andplay ghouls andghosts, volunteered hisartistic talents to help de-sign the haunt.

“There were 16 roomsin that first house full ofall the classic monsters,Frankenstein, Draculaand the Wolfman, as wellasmummies and a talkinghead,” Hotchkiss said.

“Those early hauntedhouses were really lowtech by today’s standards.We used a few commer-cial Halloween masks,wigs andgrease paint, butthere were no ready-made macabre props like

there are at today’s Hal-loween shows. If youwanted something specialit had to be built.

“That’s what I did forthose early hauntedhouses. I built scarystuff,” he said.

McKeown said the sec-ond year for the haunt iswhentheeventreally tookoff.

Theysetuptheproduc-tion in an old house inReading, and he said theyraised $121,000 that year.Admissionwasonly$1perperson, which meant thehaunted house attractedmore than 120,000 gueststhatyear,hesaid.TheJay-ceesdonated themoneytobuild two community cen-ters.

“No one has ever donewhat we did that secondyear,” he said.

The Jaycees andWSAIputona fundraisinghauntevery year until the early1980s,McKeown said, andevery haunt was held in adifferent locationthroughout thecityand itswhereabouts were keptsecret until the morning

of the opening.Proceeds from the

haunts went to organiza-tions like the CincinnatiRecreation Commission,Camp Stepping Stones,Teen Challenge Cincin-nati and Longview Hospi-tal. Over the years, morethan $500,000 was raisedfor charity.

“We did a lot of good,and nobody involved evertook a dime,” McKeownsaid. “We used to prideourselves on givingback.”

Hotchkiss said the1972haunted house on GrandAvenue in Price Hill washis first chance to designthe entire place.

“You entered a railedpathway through a verydark hallway with fog allaround. You turned a cor-ner and had to cross arickety bridge over Hell.We had torn out the floorin that roomand created atableau depicting my im-pression of Hades,” hesaid.

“You traveled onthrough rooms with psy-chedelic lights, mysteri-

ous coffins with flyingcorpses, mad surgeonsperforming unseemly op-erations on distraughtdamsels. There wasn’tanything funny about ourhauntedhouses.Wekept arecord of how many peo-ple fainted.”

McKeown fondly re-called one house that fea-tured a slide to get guestsfrom the third floor downto the second, where theythen got caught up in a gi-ant cobweb. He said thefirst night it opened peo-ple were getting stuck onthe slide, so he and someother volunteers went todiagnose the problem.

“Kids were peeing intheir pants as they wentdown the slide,” helaughed. “There are a lotof funny stories fromthose days.”

Hotchkiss said, in hisopinion, the very bestWSAI haunted house wasin 1974 on Victory Park-way near Xavier Univer-sity.

“Itwas theDollyCohenMansion and it was im-mense,” he said. “Thiswas my favorite hauntedhouse and I designed ev-ery room. Our whacky lit-tle Halloween hauntinggrew from a freaky fund-raiser to full-on horrify-ing Hollywood produc-tions.”

McKeown said the vol-unteers put a lot of workand effort into putting ona great production be-cause they knew the pro-ceeds went to worthycauses, but they all had alot of fun also.

“You had a bunch ofyoung married guys whowere looking for some-thing to do, and we wereall a little demented,” hesaid. “The haunted housegot that out of your sys-tem for the year.”

Carolyn Markley’sfirst golf swings camewhen she was 3 yearsold, attempting to directthe ball into a turtle-shaped plastic sandboxwith the assistance ofher father, Skip. Overthe next five or sixyears, the father-daugh-ter golfing sessions gotlonger and more com-petitive.

“Five minutes ofpractice became 10, 10became 15, and so on,”said Markley. “He final-lyaskedme, ‘Is thiswhatyou really love andsomething you want topursue?’ When I wasaround 8 or 9 years old, Idecided Iwanted to playtournament golf, as op-posed to other sports.”

Markley, a Maine-ville resident, ended hercareer at Saint UrsulaAcademyasperhaps themost decorated golfersince its program’s in-ception in 1992. She hasverbally committed toMichigan State Univer-sity, and earlier thismonth finished secondat the Ohio Division Istate tournament, onlyone stroke behind AvonLake senior NikoletteSchroeder.

Markley, who tied forfourth at last year’s Di-visionI tournament,wastheGirls Greater Catho-lic League and OhioSouthwest District golf-er of the year in 2013. InApril, she was named

the Greater CincinnatiNorthern KentuckyWomen’s Sports Associ-ation golfer of the year.

“Now looking back,I’m thankful for all theexperiences I’ve hadwith my teammates atSaint Ursula,” Markleysaid.

With her high schoolcareer in the rear-viewmirror, Markley’sdreams of one day tee-ing off as a professionalare coming into focus,especially after shewent stroke for strokewith a few LPGA hope-fuls at the MichiganOpenPGAevent inJune,finishing tied for 36thamong 65 competitors.

“There wasn’t a lotseparating me fromthem,” Markley said.“It’s mostly mental forme now.”

Inafewmonths,Mar-kley will join a Spartansprogram that hasreached 16-straightNCAA Regionals andearned fiveBigTenCon-ference titles underhead coach Stacy Slo-bodnik-Stoll.

Saint Ursula coachMark Hannahan, whojust completed hiseighth season as varsitycoach for the Bulldogs,knew he was getting anexceptional talent be-foreMarkley arrived oncampus.

“Weknewhow talent-ed she was,” Hannahansaid. “I’ve coached highschool girls golf for 10

WALNUT HILLS — Eagles werespotted in Troy again this fall as theWalnutHillsHighSchoolgirlscrosscountry teammadeanotherappear-ance in theDivision I regionals Oct.25.

By finishing second in the dis-trictmeet at Voice of America ParkOct.18, coachBillValenzano’swom-en ofWalnut earned the right to seetheir breath on another autumnSat-urday morning.

The superlative seven this sea-son were seniors Kelley Coleman,Collier Summay and HannahSchroeder, freshmen Chloe Shiffand Emma Farrell, junior SkylarBruggeman and sophomore JulieInman.

“This was quite a surprise,” Va-lenzanosaid. “Noneofusassociatedwith the program were expecting adistrict runner-up. We were hopingfor fourth. We’re all just really im-pressed.”

SeniorColemanwasWalnut’s topfemale runner this fall with a sea-son-best time of 19:31 entering theregional. At the district meet, Cole-man and Summay ran their typicalraces, but remarkable improve-ments by Schroeder and Shiff gavethe LadyEagles a third district run-ner-up title to go along with a dis-trict championship won in 2012.

Shiff, Farrell, Bruggeman andInmanwere all new to varsity cross

country so the Troy regionals werea first for them, but “old hat” to vet-erans Coleman, Summay andSchroeder.

On the trails of Troy, Colemanwas Walnut’s top finisher Oct. 25 in39th place at 20:19.62, followed bySchroeder in 44th at 20:29.45. Sum-may was 78th at 21:34.60 out of theregion’s best 118 runners. While theseniors didn’t qualify for the statemeet, they left their mark on theiryounger teammates.

Notable this season, like last,were theaccomplishmentsof fresh-

men at the varsity level. Chloe Shiffand Emma Farrell will be a part ofthe equation on Victory Parkwayfor some time.

“A lot of it goesback to the juniorhigh program,” Valenzano said.“They were both pretty good in ju-nior high, but they’ve really takenoff. They’re both long distancetypes so going from twomiles in ju-nior high to 3.1 in high school suitsthem very well.”

years, and she’s at the topof my list.”

Markley’s averagescore as a freshman was38.53, the best overallmark for anyplayer in theBulldogs’ program histo-ry.

AllHannahanhad to dowas improve on Mar-kley’s few weaknesses,refine her mechanics andacclimate her to the ex-pectations of theSaintUr-sula program. He foundthe latter to be easy.

“She blended right inwith no problem,” Hanna-han said. “I’ve seen in-stances, not at SaintUrsu-la, but at other schoolswhere an outstandingplayer might behave dif-ferently, and not as you’d

expect a sportswoman tobehave. That was neveran issue with Carolyn.”

Markley’s long andshort game have benefit-ed from her physical ma-turation and technical im-provement in recentyears.Herdrivesregular-ly reach 230 yards, up to260 with roll. She consid-ers putting to be astrength, but adds that“everything in betweenstill can improve.”

Markley still playsgolfwith her dad, an avid golf-er. The competition hasprogressed from theirfront yard to areacourses, the sandbox re-placed by sand traps. Theroles of mentor and tutoroften are reversed, too.

“Sometimes he wins,sometimes I win,” Mar-kley says. “It’s prettyeven, but very competi-tive.”

Whenmore andmorestudents started signingup, Valenzano andMalo-tt needed the extra eyesand expertise.

“We did some fundraising as our numbersincreased dramaticallythis year,” Valenzanosaid. “Wehave85kidsonthe roster. We actuallyoutnumber the footballteam on the roster. Twocoaches can’t accommo-date all of those kids, sowe did some fund rais-

ing and some parentswere very generous bywriting checks.”

While the boys teamdidn’t qualify for region-als, Valenzano is bullishon getting them there.Freshman Jack Lowryand senior Max Brock-well were the Eagles toprunners at the districtmeet. The team finishedsixth, up from eighthlast year.

Lowry is the brotherof former girls standoutand Iowa State runnerMaryn Lowry.

“He’s got the carrotdangling in front ofhim,” Valenzano said.“She’s got about everydistance school record.I’m sure he’s going tohave a pretty good fu-ture.”

As the election approaches,there is a lot of talk about theeconomy and job creation.Unfortunately, a lot of it is justthat – talk.

In a recent column in thispaper, my opponent spent a lotof time talking about a so-called bipartisan jobs groupthat he would form to talkabout job creation. What hedoesn’t talk about – any sub-stantive proposals to actuallycreate jobs.

Here is what I think weshould actually do to spur jobcreation.

Because small businessesare the backbone of our econo-

my, employingmore than halfof the U.S.workforce andcreating sevenout of every 10new jobs, theymust be thefocus of ourefforts. Assmall businessowners in this

community and across thecountry have told me, the keyto job creation is removing theobstacles that prevent theirbusinesses from growing andadding employees.

The first obstacle we must

address is the difficulty manysmall businesses have access-ing capital. I have introducedseveral proposals that wouldhelp, at no cost to taxpayers,increase the flow of much-needed, private capital intosmall businesses, thereby al-lowing them to expand opera-tions and hiring.

Next, we should help easethe regulatory burden on smallbusinesses. Given their limitedresources, it is particularlydifficult for small businessesto navigate the labyrinth ofburdensome regulations com-ing out of Washington. To ad-dress this growing burden, the

House has passed several bi-partisan reforms to the rule-making process, including aproposal to require federalagencies to seek regulatoryalternatives that are less costlyfor smaller companies.

We should work to expandtrade opportunities for smallfirms. Due to the complexmaze of trade rules and reg-ulations both foreign and do-mestic, less than one percentof small businesses activelyexport their products. To helpboost small business exports, Ihave proposed streamliningthe complicated export proc-ess and providing small busi-

nesses access to the tools theyneed to sell their productsabroad. Simply put, more ex-ports mean more jobs.

These common-sense, bipar-tisan proposals will help pro-vide small businesses the cap-ital and resources they need togrow, expand and create jobs. Iam hopeful that after the elec-tion, we will finally have aSenate that is willing to workwith the House to enact thesecritical reforms.

Steve Chabot is running for re-elec-tion to Congress in Ohio’s First Dis-trict.

Job creation should focus on small businesses

People WorkingCooperatively plays acrucial role in theCityof Cincinnati provid-ing critical home re-pairs and services sothat low income, el-derly, disabled home-owners and veteranscan remain in theirhomes living indepen-dently in a safe andhealthy environment.

Ourmissiontohelpasmany people in ourcommunity as we canis now at serious risk.The City of Cincin-nati, who we considera supportive partner,has recommended areduction on PWC’sbudget. Recent actionby City Council andthe Mayor has re-stored some of therecommended reduc-tion. For this we areappreciative.

However, PWC isso effective in maxi-mizing every dollar, Ibelieve the fundingneeds to be restoredin full. The organiza-tion is ranked in thehighest category bythe Community De-velopment AdvisoryBoard and is a modelfor organizationsaround the country.

For every dollarthe City allocates toPWC, PWC turns itinto $3 by creativelysecuring matchinggifts and grants. Inturn, the loss of everydollar is actually aloss of $3 to the PWCbudget. Continuingfull financial supportof PWC is such a wiseinvestmentbyCincin-nati in Cincinnati anda wise use of the tax-payer dollars.

I am asking ourcity leaders to recon-sider cuts to PWC andto restore all fundingto this effective andefficient organiza-tion. The city’s returnon investment withPWC is significantbut the impact ofPWC’s work in ourCincinnati neighbor-hoods and families isfar greater.

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR

Oct. 22 questionTwo women were killed when

hitbyavehiclewhilewalkingalongOld Colerain Avenue and East Mi-ami River Road earlier this month.What precautions do you takewhenwalking?

“Walk/run facing traffic – andstep aside when you see trafficcoming. Wear bright coloredclothing (even reflective cloth-ing) to assure you are easily seenby oncoming vehicles.”

C.G.

“I really like to walk and con-sider it a perfect non-damaging,

lowcost, exercise.After leavingajob that providedmewith the op-portunity to frequently take verylong walks in new places, I tried

several ways to use our publicroadways and sidewalks to seeAnderson from a new perspec-tive.Now, I haveavolunteerposi-tion that can keep me on my feetfor hours, and, so far, help mekeep those ‘unemployment inch-es’ from requiring a new ward-robe.

“I don’t knowwhat time of daythis took place, but obviously, if itwas at night, we have all seen pe-destrians who seem cluelesswhen it comes to wearing highlyvisible clothing or reflectivebelts if walking at night. Walkingon the side of the road, facingtraffic, in most cases allows the

walker todetermineanoncomingthreat. I haven’t mastered select-ing routes at all times withoutsharp bends in the road, but amextra cautious if there is notenough side area to allow me tomove out of the way, on the sideupon which I am walking. In An-derson Township, many of oursubdivision streets have side-walks, forwhichwe homeownerspay extra taxes. I have a questionfor all thosewho seem to feel thatwalking in the street, even whentherearesidewalks, issomehowapedestrian prerogative. Why?”

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONDid you or will you vote early thisyear, or will you wait until ElectionDay? Why?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers to rmaloney@communitypress.com with Ch@troom in the subjectline.

I lost my brother-in-law atmidnight last month. As one ofhis grandchildren wrote onFacebook, “Pa-Pa went to Heav-

en last night.”The irony of

his death fromAlzheimer’s wasthat Ron wasone of thebrightest men Iknew. He was anauditor for aFortune 200petroleum com-pany; and, whenhe retired, he

decided to go into the insurancebusiness, as he loved sales. Hewas very successful.

His progression through themany stages of this disease wasa five-year nightmare. At first, itwas just a slowing of his activitylevel, and later, a slowing of his

speech. This was most unusual,as Ron would always “talk yourright arm off” to get across hispoint of view.

We watched and listened ashis cognitive ability slowed.Slowly, he began to forget recentevents. He would repeat hisconversations when he forgotthat he had already had thatdiscussion.

Eventually, he would begin toask how we were related to him,and where we lived. Much later,he would repeat these questionsover and over. I always listened,and slowly answered each of hisquestions each time it wasasked; not to do so would havebeen an insult to his dignity.

“You’re one of the goodguys,” he would say, and hewould pat me on the shoulder.

Ron walked me into his ga-rage to showme his cherished

Lincoln. He would open the frontpassenger door and slide ontothe soft tan leather seat. Aftersitting there awhile, he wouldsay, “This is a great car, I lovethis car.” He would silently sitthere a while longer. He no long-er had the keys, or his driver’slicense.

He began to lose his appetite,and he began to lose weight. Wewould include Ron when wevisited restaurants, knowing thedifficulties he would face, need-ing his food to be cut up, andrequiring someone to help himvisit the restroom, as he wouldforget where it was, and how toreturn to his table.

He loved to brag about beingthe smallest player on the WestVirginia football team. At thetime of his death, he weighedonly 130 pounds.

Death did not come easily. He

knew he was losing control ofhis destiny. He would becomeangry and lash out.

“I don’t know what is wrongwith me,” he would complain.

His wife took care of him athome, with little outside help,until the last 10 days of his life.Near the end, his breathing be-came both difficult and labored;at which time he was taken tothe emergency room. He wassedated and eventually sent to ahospice facility, where he wouldreceive the best of care.

If you die at 100, your life isshort. Everyone dies; so, thelesson seems to be to make themost of it, while you can.

James Baker is a 37-year resident ofIndian Hill.

Do you know someone dying of Alzheimer’s?

James BakerCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

In last week’s paper, my oppo-nent TedWinkler belittled mylife’s work, so, let me set therecord straight.

As mayor, I focused on help-ing neighborhoods solve prob-lems and improving our qualityof life.

As Congressman, I focusedon constituent work, helping tofind solutions for citizens whowere frustrated in their dealingswith the federal government.

As an attorney I representedclients at every level of the judi-ciary, arriving at outcomes thatsatisfied my clients and ourcommunity. My experience inpublic service has indeed beendiverse, and it’s exactly the kindof experience that the ProbateCourt needs.

As I shook hands with votersacross the county at churchfestivals, parades, and flea mar-

kets peopleshared with metheir experi-ences at criticaljunctures intheir lives, con-firming mybelief that theProbate Court isa place where Ican make adifference.

I heard people open up abouthow they feel helpless to stopthe downward spiral of an adultchild or brother or sister suf-fering with mental illness orsubstance abuse, fearing thatthe troubled family memberwould spend a lifetime in andout of trouble with the law,homeless on the streets, orworse.

Young couples told me abouttheir protracted struggles to

adopt a child, at times finding itdifficult not to be discouragedby bureaucratic red tape, won-dering how a child they want tolove as their own is still nottheirs. People told me how con-fusing it is to probate a deceasedparent’s estate while still griev-ing for their loss.

What all these people told mewas further proof of what I al-ready know as an attorney – thatthe Probate Court is truly a cra-dle to grave court where peoplecome for help. Unlike othercourts where people are broughtto answer criminal charges orwhere civil disputes over moneyare resolved, the Probate Courtis where people come for help onthe most personal and sensitiveof matters.

I believe the Probate Judgecan and should advocate forfamilies in time of crisis. And to

help citizens, I have proposed aProbate Academy to be held atsenior citizen centers and otherlocations throughout the countywhere people can come to learnabout wills, the steps of estateadministration, the adoptionprocess, and other importantaspects of the court.

One thing this campaign hasmade clear is that the most im-portant role of the Probate CourtJudge is to help others. I’m ask-ing for your support becausetogether we can make the Pro-bate Court even more helpful toour families, and to thousands ofour fellow citizens. That’s why Iask for your vote on Tuesday.

I had nuts left overfrommaking caramelapples so I decided tomake some peanut brit-

tle. Peanutbrittle canbe a trickycandy tomake, andsome ofmy recipescall for acandythermom-eter alongwith theaddition of

baking soda, neither ofwhich this recipe re-quires. I will tell you thatthis peanut brittle doesn’thave the “snap” andsomewhat airy texture oftraditional brittle. Re-gardless, it’s sooo good.

I’m thinking I shouldhave waited until theholidays to share since itmakes a fabulous giftfrom the kitchen. Butyou knowme, if I makesomething that is awe-somely good, I can hard-ly wait to share. Makethis now and save therecipe to make duringthe holidays. Betcha can’teat just one piece!

Simple peanutbrittle

Chock full of nuts. Ifyou want more of brittle,use less nuts. AdaptedfromMelanie Barnard’srecipe. As Melanie toldme “follow directionsand it works every time.”If all you have in the frigis salted butter, that’s OKto use.

1/2 stick unsaltedbutter

1/2 cup sugar2 tablespoons corn

syrup - I’ve used both

light and dark and pre-fer dark

1 teaspoon vanilla2 cups saltedmixed

nuts or peanutsLine cookie sheet with

foil and spray it. Stirbutter, sugar and cornsyrup in pan over medi-um heat until sugar meltsand mixture bubbles andbecomes smooth. Coverand cook for a minute.Stir in vanilla and nutsand cook, stirring con-stantly, until nuts arefragrant and goldenbrown, about 5 minutes.Don’t overcook. Pouronto foil, spreading thin.Cool and break apart.Store, tightly covered, atroom temperature up to aweek.

Baked potatoeswith cheese saucelike Wendy’s

For the reader whowants to avoid buyingthese throughWendy’sdrive thru. Homemade isalways better! Here’s acheese sauce that’s soversatile. It’s good onbroccoli and other veg-gies, too. Sometimes I’llwhisk in a squirt of Dijonor dry mustard with themilk mixture. Sharp ormild cheddar work equal-ly well.

And here’s a question Iget asked a lot: can youuse any kind of potatoesfor baking? Well, yes, butthe true baking potatoes,like Idaho, have morestarch in them and bakeup drier and fluffy. Andthey’re really the best, Ithink, for mashed pota-toes. Others, like red, willbake up more “waxy”and firm. My take on it?

The bakers are best, butif all you have are red orother kinds, go for it.

4 nice sized bakedpotatoes

2 Tablespoons butter2 Tablespoons flourSalt & pepper1 cupmilk1-1/2 cups shredded

cheddarMelt butter in pan

over medium heat. Addflour and whisk for oneminute. Slowly whisk inmilk and whisk untilthickened, about 5 min-

utes. Remove from heatand stir in cheese untilsmooth. Add salt andpepper to taste.

Make a lengthwisesplit in potatoes. Smooshup at both ends to openand fluff up. Pour cheesesauce over.

Tip from Rita’skitchen: Broccoliand cheese stuffedpotatoes

Steam some broccoliflorets and add before

pouring on cheese.

Readers want toknow: are beetsgood for you?

You bet they are.Boost your brainpowerwith beets. As we age,poor blood flow contrib-utes to cognitive decline.Research shows thatbeets can help increaseblood flow to the brain,which helps improvemental alertness andperformance and may

help prevent Alzheim-er’s.

Eat them roasted withred onions, olive oil, rose-mary and thyme, thendrizzled with Balsamicvinegar for a true feast.

When buying a newcar is it a good idea toimmediately buy an ex-tended service warranty?Many people do that, butif you do, you have to bevery careful about justwhat you are buying.

When John Scudder, ofHillsboro, bought a newcar a few years ago hesaid he didn’t think twicewhen asked about buyingan extended service war-ranty. “She asked, ‘Doyou want a 60,000-milewarranty?’ I said, ‘OK,

sure,’”Scuddersaid.

It wasonly laterthat heaskedabout theparticularwarrantyhe boughtand found

it was from an indepen-dent company, not fromthe vehicle manufactur-er. Scudder said he raninto problems when he

took his car into anotherdealer and showed hiswarranty.

“He said, “We don’taccept it.’ I went to mymechanic and he doesn’taccept it. Then he went toanother mechanic – butno one accepted it,” Scud-der said.

The dealer who soldhim the policy said therewas no problem, that heshould bring the car backto them.

“He said, ‘If youbrought the car back

here we would have ac-cepted it.’ But, what ifI’m in Florida? Mydaughter is a doctordown there. I would haveto tow it back 2,000 milesand it just doesn’t makesense,” Scudder said.

Scudder paid $2,200for the warranty and saidhe now realizes he shouldhave bought the manu-facturer’s extended ser-vice warranty instead.

“If it was a Hondawarranty they wouldcover it. I didn’t need to

use it because myHondaran great. But they saidbecause it’s not a Hondawarranty they won’t eventalk with you.” Scuddersaid.

Consumer Reports hasfound most readers spentmore on their warrantythan they saved in re-pairs. But if you stillwant to buy a warrantyyou don’t have to do soimmediately. You canwait until just before theoriginal warranty ex-pires to buy the extended

warranty.If you wait you’ll know

whether you really wantto keep the car. But beadvised, you will prob-ably have to pay more forthe extended warranty atthat point.

Mt. Lookoutresident to receiveClement L. BuengerEducation Award

Mt. Lookout residentMary Bolte Friel will re-ceive the Clement L.Buenger Award for Lead-ership in Education atUnited Way's 2014 cam-paign finale luncheonOct.30atDukeEnergyCenter.The award honors some-

one in thecommunitywhois strongly committed toensuring all children andyouth succeed academi-cally. This is the fourthyear the award has beenpresented.

During her 13 years asaCourtAppointedSpecial

Advocate and educationalparent surrogate for Pro-Kids, a United Way agen-cy partner, Friel has nev-er lost her passion for en-suring that every childgets a chance at a goodeducation.

Following a 20-plus

year career as a schoolpsychologist for childrenwith emotional needs, shewas not finishedmaking adifference for children.AfterbecomingaCASAtohelp abused and neglect-ed children, usually in thefostercaresystem, it soonbecameclear thatshepos-sessed a passion for help-ing CASA children witheducational issues.

Friel become the firstCASA volunteer trainedby the Ohio Departmentof Education as an educa-tional parent surrogateandfoundedProKids’par-ent surrogate team. Sheleads the team, volunteer-ing to serve as a resourcefor all CASAs when chil-dren in their cases facechallenges getting schoolservices such as Individ-ualized Education Plansand Evaluation Team Re-ports.

Duringher service as asurrogate, Friel has at-tended hundreds ofschool conferences, bene-fiting more than 40 chil-dren each year. She’shelped students still ineighth-grade at age 16,and children who can’tread or write after beingin school for years.

“She has tirelessly ad-vocated for children whohave been neglected inother areas of their lives,making sure school sys-tems meet their educa-tional needs,” said heraward nominator, Char-lotte Caples, CASAVolun-teer Program director.

“For manyof thesechildren,their homeis theirschool,”says Friel.“Somedays, youfeel like

you really make a differ-ence in giving a child achance and helping themfeel that stability thatthey lack.”

As a result of her pro-fessional background,Friel lends a special un-derstanding to school re-ports and test results andcan also look for underly-ing issues that may bekeeping children fromachieving in school. “Ma-ryhasmadeahugediffer-ence in the educationaloutcomes for many Pro-Kids children,” Caplessaid. “Her knowledge andexpertisehavebeen inval-uable, and her commit-ment and dedication areoutstanding.”

The Buenger Award isnamed after Clement L.Buenger, who served asthe president and CEO ofFifthThirdBankformorethan10 years, and also ledwhat became known asthe Buenger Commission,which developed a reportoutlining recommenda-tions for improving Cin-cinnati Public Schools.Buenger was a long-timeUnitedWayvolunteer andsupporter who chairedthe1981UnitedWay Cam-paign.

Frank McElwain isknown for the OfficialCincinnati Bicentennial“Tall Stacks” painting andhis vibrant oils reflectingCincinnati’s rich history.Much research has goneinto his paintings con-cerning accuracy of ar-chitecture, transportationsystems and fashion. Hisstyle is intended to allowone to enjoy a romantic,artisticand idealizedviewof a simpler time. Hedoesn’t claim tobe ahisto-rian, but his work is unde-niably poignant in depict-ing Cincinnati from 1890to1925.

One of Frank’s per-sonal favorites in this ex-hibit is his painting “ViewFrom the Top.” In his ownwords – “I wanted to cre-ate a feeling of depth andgoing back in time. Thispainting provides such acomprehensive view ofGovernment Square inthe 1920s.”

Frank has been pre-sented numerous presti-gious awards throughouthis career however themost important award forhim was receiving ThePost-Corbett FinalistAward in 1988.

His wife, Dianne, isequally talented in herrealistic botanical water-colors. Dianne McEl-wain’s eye for detail andcommand of watercoloradd to the accuracy of thesubject being portrayed.All of her subjects arecarefully researched andpainted from live plants.Botanical Art is Scienceand Art coming togetherin a perfect union of cre-ativity.

In this exhibit,Dianne’s personal favor-ite is her delicate water-color “Peony Bouquet”depicting the lush peoniesin her garden enjoyedyear after year. In herown words, “The signifi-cance of my paintings ishow delicate the petalsarepainted.Thewatercol-orwhite is thewhite of thepaper. Defining the out-side of the petal tomake itappear white when nowhite paint is used is cap-tivating.”

LikeFrank,Diannehasbeen the recipient of nu-merous respected awardsin her lifetime, but themost importantawardshehas received is The DianeBouchier FoundersAward for outstandingachievement in BotanicalArt.

Roger Ward of Madei-ra has been a McElwainand McElwain collectorfor more than 30 years.

“When I look at theirpaintings, I am struckwith the realization ofhow alive they are,” Wardsaid. “Even the ones that Ihave owned for decadesand see daily, I can spotsomething I have neverseen. It is a peculiar expe-rience to see a static enti-ty consistently revealingsomething new.”

Frank and DianneMcElwain celebratedtheir 38th wedding anni-versary this year.

“Together we are oneperson,” Frank said.

REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS

An Irish Heritage Cen-ter in the Queen Cityarose in 2005, starting thesearch for a building tohouse it.

The search culminatedin a 2009 victory in asealed bid auction for theold McKinley SchoolBuilding on Eastern Ave-nue in Columbia-Tuscu-lum.

The building had beenvacant for fouryears; thatis,exceptforacoveyofpi-geons.

The founders knew thebuilding was destined tobecome Cincinnati’s ownIrish Heritage Centerwhen they first sawabove

the theater-ballroomstage a ring of Celticknots embedded in plas-ter along the prosceniumarch. The non-profit ven-ture was off and running.

The 44,000 square footbuilding dates from the

1870s and is as solid asDublinCastle.Aftermuchhard work by a corps ofvolunteers, the buildinghouses a 200-plus seattheater-ballroom; a largecenter hallway fromwhose ceiling hang the

flags of Ireland’s counties(many people search fortheir “home” county’sflag), an office, an art gal-lery, an art room, a danceroom, a tea room, a 2,000-plus book library and mu-seum, a music roomwhere the Friendly Sonsof St. Patrick Glee Clubpractices, and, of course,because it isa touchofIre-land, a warm and engag-ing pub with a large oakbar.

Oh, and there’s alwaysa drop of Guinness on tap,mind you, and behind thebar a jar of Red Breast,this writer’s preferredIrish whiskey.

So, what goes on at theIrish Heritage Center forits 350 members? Toomuch to tell, but here’s atempting sample:

» Concerts, many ofwhich include perform-ers from Ireland like WeBanjo 3, the BrockMcGuire Band, TheYoungWolfe Tones, Black47, Comas, Saw DoctorsDuo (LeoandAnto),EddieCostello, and Alyth Mc-Cormack and TrioneMar-shal of the Chieftains,plus wonderful localbands, singers and musi-cians.

» Theater, like “Moll,”“What Happened BridgieCleary,” “ACouple of Bla-guards,” “Thirst,” “Danc-ing at Lughnasa,” “Tho’ ItWere Ten ThousandMiles” and the showing offilms, “The Quiet Man,”on its 60th anniversary.

The IrishAmeircanThea-ter Company has wonmany awards on an inter-national levelandmostre-cently brought back theOscar Wilde Award forBestNewShowat the2014Acting Irish InternationalTheater Fest.

» Exhibitions, such asthose of William ButlerYeats, James Joyce andSamuelBeckett sent fromthe National Library ofDublin, shown for thefirst time in thiscity.Bookand CD releases, as wellas lectures on various po-litical and current topics.

» Visits by dignitarieslike Martin McGuinness,Deputy First Minister ofNorthern Ireland, andMartin Rouine and AidanCronin, Consuls Generalof Ireland.
