Indian Hill ElementarySchool is hoping to scareupcos-tumes for charity.

Gently-used Halloween cos-tumesorpartsofcostumessuchas a boa, bandana or eye patch,are being collected by theschool for donation to theMadi-sonville Education and Assis-

This is the 10th year IndianHill Elementary School hasbeen involved in the effort.

Halloween is an exciting

time of year, and this is a wayfor kids to dress up and have agood time with their friends,said Lewis.

Lewis said she hopes to re-ceive form 50 to 60 costumes.

“A lot of the kids donate cos-tumes from when they wereyounger,” she said, adding thatsuperhero and princess cos-tumes have been popular in thepast.

“I think it’s great to see ourkids doing things to help otherkids,” said Sprang, who is areading intervention specialistat the school. Sprang said theinitiative instills “a sense of ser-vice” in the students.

Although a number of stu-dentshavealreadydonatedcos-tumes, residents can also help.Costumes can be dropped off atthe school, 6100 Drake Road.

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 commercialhaunted house industrycan thank the old WSAIradiostationandtheSyca-more-Deer Park Jayceesfor setting the foundationfor 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 from

the new programdirectoratWSAIwhosaidhewant-edtodoahauntedhouseto

raise 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 well

asmummies 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 likethere 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 done

what 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 morningof the opening.

Proceeds from thehaunts 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 was

his 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.

Northeast HamiltonCounty once again findsitself ground zero for oneof the closest Statehouseraces in Ohio, completewith cross-party endorse-ments, buckets of admon-ey and two native sonsduking it out.

Democrat Micah Kam-rass, fresh off a law de-gree at Ohio State, has le-veraged hometown con-

nections and an easy-go-ing personality to rack upstrong fundraising totalsand some support fromGOP-leaning officials andvoters.

Still, Democratic gu-

bernatorial candidate EdFitzGerald’s woes arelikely to hurt turnoutamong left-leaning vot-ers. What’s more, Kam-rass is likely to fall far be-hind his opponent, Madei-raattorneyJonathanDev-er, in all-importantcampaign spending.

That’s becauseDever’s66-vote GOP primary vic-tory has positioned him tobenefit from the hun-dreds of thousands of dol-lars – if notmore –Repub-licans are capable ofdumping into the race.Through a Dever victory,the GOP would wrestback the 55 percent Re-publican district held byoutgoing Rep. ConniePillich, D-Montgomery.

Bothmen are newcom-ers to Statehouse races,but not to politics. Kam-rass represented 40,000as student body presidentatOhio State,whileDeverlast year aided the Coali-tion Opposed to Addition-al Spending and Taxes inits fight against the Cin-cinnati streetcar and hasinterviewed with theHamilton County Repub-lican Party about seekinga judgeship.

They’re duking it outoveroneof thefewGener-alAssemblydistricts splitrather evenly betweenRepublicans and Demo-crats. That’s led Kamrassto accuse Dever of “teaparty extremism” and in-spired Republicans to runads questionably linkingKamrass to fraudulentvoter MeloweseRichardson.

Bothmen talkof reach-ing across party lines, butwhat they’d actually do inthe Statehouse is a bit of amystery on some issues.

For instance, in a sur-vey for Right to Life ofGreater Cincinnati, Dev-er said he supported bansonabortion fromfertiliza-tiontobirth,except topro-tect the mother. He toldThe Enquirer editorialboard he wanted to “pro-tect and preserve inno-cent life” but favored pre-venting abortion throughpersonal conversations.“I just don’t believe youcan shove somethingdown someone’s throat.”In lieu of a position on theHeartbeat Bill, which

would prevent abortionsafter the first detectablefetal heartbeat, Deversaid he didn’t believe thebill would get a vote in theHouse.

Kamrass has beenmore forthcoming abouthis views on social issues.But it’s unclear wherehe’d vote on some tax is-sues that are likely to belumped together in a Re-publican-sponsored bud-get. For instance, he sup-ports increasing the taxonoil andgasproducedbyfracking and wants to usetax incentives to keepgraduating college stu-dents in Ohio. But he op-poses Republicans’ 2013decision to raise Ohio’ssales tax by a quarter of apercentage point to fundincome tax cuts.

Redrawn districtremains dividedbetween parties

The Hamilton Countydistrict, stretching fromMadeira and Montgome-ry on the east to ForestPark and Greenhills onthe west, is considered aprize for either party. (In2010, outgoing DemocratPillich defeated tea partyleader Mike Wilson ofSpringfield Township byonly 600 votes.)

GOP leaders redrewthedistrict in2011tofavortheir party, but a brutalprimary race in Maycould have neutralizedsome of the advantage forDever. He won the raceafter negative campaign-ing against Blue Ash CityCouncilman Rick Bryan,turningoffmanyRepubli-cans in the area – someopenly, some quietly.

Kamrass has beenendorsed by RepublicansDoyle Webster, mayor ofSpringdale, and WalterReuszer, formermayor ofBlue Ash. Other Republi-cans, such as Mayor LeeCzerwonka of Blue Ashand Bryan himself, havesaid they can’t supportDever, but they havestopped short of endors-ing Kamrass.

Dever obviously holdsthe GOP endorsement ad-vantage, with dozens ofRepublican officials’

support. But he has failedto get support from somekeyGOP-leaningpoliticalaction groups, such as theOhio Chamber PAC andthe Ohio Society of CPAs.Dever attributed his lackof endorsement from thechamber PAC to his oppo-sition to Common Coreeducational standards,which the group sup-ports. But the chamber’spolitical manager disput-ed that reasoning, sayingthegroupdidn’t seemuchof a difference betweenKamrass and Dever onbusiness issues.

And it was Kamrass,not Dever, who cameaway with the endorse-ment from the CincinnatiArea Board of Realtorsand Ohio Board of Real-tors, whose endorse-ments lean Republican.

Local roots andexperiencesfuel opponents’stances

Kamrass, originallyfromBlueAsh, also bene-fits from name recogni-tion in the district wherehe grew up. His father,Lewis, is aprominent rab-bi from the IsaacM.WiseTemple in Amberley Vil-lage.

Dever moved into thedistrict last year, but hadgrownup inMontgomery.Before he moved backinto the district, some ofhis real estate experienc-es include a foreclosure,which he disclosed on hiscampaign’s blog, and alien for $112 in unpaidschool district taxes.Dever andhiswife repaidthe amount four monthslater – as soon as theywere notified of an extratax assessment, Deversaid.

He’s said the two expe-riences, along with de-fending clients facingforeclosure, help him re-late to the problems fac-ing homeowners andsmall business owners.

“I understand whattough times are. I under-stand how people get inthose situations. I under-stand what it’s like tohave to put food on the ta-ble for the little ones,”Dever said. “I’m the onlyone in this race who hasany real-world experi-ence, who knowswhat it’slike to manage two ca-reers and pay a mort-gage.”

Kamrass counteredthat his tenure as OSUstudent body presidenthas given himmore expe-

rience representing con-stituents than Dever has.Kamrass said he directlymanaged an annual bud-get of hundreds of thou-sands of dollars in stu-dent activity fees. ■

ON THE ISSUESA sampling of the

candidates’ positions

TRANSITKamrass: Supports de-veloping a plan for re-gional transportation,linking Cincinnati, sub-urbs and airport. Couldinclude money for railand possibly streetcar.Dever:We need a betterhighway system, sincetractor-trailer shippingand commuting by cararen’t going away. “Thestreetcar sounds great,but you can’t afford it.You can’t operate it.… Idon’t mind looking atevery option. The bigconcern I have on anyproject like this is how areyou going to pay for it,who’s going to use it, andhow are you going tooperate it?”

SAME-SEXMAR-RIAGEKamrass: Supports lega-lizing it. Believes thecourts will legalize it inOhio, as part of a “waveof history.” Votersshouldn’t be able to“take away constitutionalrights” by outlawingsame-sex marriage.Dever: “What two con-senting adults do in theprivacy of their home istheir business.

recycling.”Students interviewed the

workers and got to see, first-hand, how the bins are liftedinto the trucks. When askedabout the most exciting part ofthe visit, the unanimous answerwas, “watching the big orangetruck compact the recycling!”

SHORT HOPS

BLUE ASH — The summer of2013 was a productive one forUrsuline Academy cross coun-try runner Grace Kelly, or so itseemed.

She was running well inworkoutsand time trials andap-pearedprimed for a solid juniorseason. Then, for no apparentreason, her performance beganto decline.

“I wasn’t really sure why Iwas running so slow,” Kellysaid. “I’m the type of personthatkeepsrunningandrunning.I didn’t realize how injured Iwas. I was relieved it wasn’t allin my head. There was a reasonmy times were dropping.”

Kelly had made a commonmistake among cross countryrunners: She tried to do toomuch.

“She really wanted to be sogood, but her body wasn’t let-ting her,” said Lions coach Ra-chel Bea. “When you do toomuch too soon in cross country,it can backfire on you. Sheworked so hard over the sum-mer that she was in tip-topshape at the start of the year,and she got hurt.”

In order to prevent a stressfracture or other type of injury,Kelly spent last season on thesidelines.Shethenembarkedonher senior year in the rightframe of mind and body. And,the proof is in the results.

Kelly is coming off a strongperformance at the recentDivi-sion I district meet at Voice ofAmerica Park in West Chesterin which she finished in secondplace, behind Mason’s MeaganMurphy.

“It was a performance thatspokevolumes,”saidBea, inhersecond season at UA. “It wasone we had been waiting andlooking for. She had been hang-ing around 19 minutes for awhile, butweknew therewas somuchmore there. And then shestepped out.”

Kelly, who crossed the finishline in 18:32.03, said of her per-formance at districts, “It wentalmost exactly as I planned it inmy head.”

It wasn’t the first time thisseason that Kelly had delivereda memorable performance.

On Sept. 1, she won the RyleInvitational in 18:58.30, the only

See KELLY , Page A9INDIANHILL—Though theylost basically a half squad ofseniors from 2013’s Division IIstate semifinal team, IndianHill High School’s boys soccerteam ended 2014 with a proudeffort.

After finishing the regularcampaign at .500 plus a pair ofties (7-7-2) the Braveswon twoshutouts in the sectional tour-nament before being shut outthemselves,1-0 byMcNicholasOct. 20.

“It was a good matchup be-tween two very good teams,”coach Bill Mees said. “We hadsome really good chances andthey had some good chances.We hit the crossbar in the firsthalf andhad a couple of finger-tip saves made against us.”

Unlike last season, whenMees said goodbye to 11 sen-iors, this year’s class was onlyfive: Chris Duncan Austin

Schneider, James Pflughaupt,Sam Markiewitz and BrooksRenfro.

Duncan, Schneider andRenfro were all starters in lastseason’s long run. Schneiderled the teaminscoringthissea-son, followed by junior CaseyMcClay who came on late.

“He was with us last seasonas a sophomore and saw inter-mittent time,” Mees said. “Hebecame a pretty importantpiece of the machine for usvery quickly this year.”

McClay should be a pro-ducer again next year alongwith current sophomore Mat-teo Fiore, the team’s third-leading scorer.

The Braves finished 9-8-2and 5-2 in the Cincinnati HillsLeague to tie Madeira for sec-ond behind undefeated Wyo-ming. Mees ended the seasonneeding just one more win for300 on his career.

sub-19-minute timeamong 136 runners.Three weeks later,she finished first attheMidwestCatholicChampionships inDayton.

Kelly also fin-ished second at theGirls Greater Catho-lic League meet andfourth at the St. Xa-vier Invitational.

“I’ve been a hugedrop in time andhuge improvementsthisyear,”Kelly said.“The key is I tookmore time off aftertrack season. Lastyear, I took one weekoff and then wentfull-bore. This year, Igave my body moretime to heal.”

On Saturday, Kel-ly will join her Ursu-line teammates attheDivision I region-al championships inTroy, Ohio.

The Lions are hop-ing to earn a chanceto improve on lastyear’s third-placefinish at the statemeet.

Kelly said this isthe best she’s feltphysically at anypoint in her varsitycareer.

With her physicalailments behind her,Kelly is aiming highthis weekend at re-gionals.

“I’m not con-cerned about time,”she said. “I’m keep-ing my eyes on top 3,and seeing how closeI can get.”

KellyContinued from Page A8

The celebration willnow have to wait at leastuntil next August. Morethan likely, the victorywon’t come against a pro-verbial cupcake.

Mees prefers to tough-en his squad up duringthe season with competi-tive non-conferencegames.

If he scheduled softergames, hemay have beenblowing out the candles

of his “300” cake this fall.“We played some real-

ly tough teams aroundthestate,”Meessaid. “Weplayed Carroll to a tie, weplayed Alter and lost on apenalty kick, we tied Tip-pecanoe and we playedfive Division I teams. Ilove playing that level ofcompetition. That’s ourphilosophy.”

Approaching his 27thyear inhighschool coach-ing, Mees still enjoys theebb and flow.

He didn’t sleep muchafter theMcNick loss andwas already thinking

about next year’s start inthe dog days of summerless than 24 hours afterbeing eliminated.

“You’re always think-ing about the future,” hesaid. “It’s kind of an ongo-ing process. Guys comeand contribute to the pro-gram and then graduateand move on. You cheerfor them. You also moveon to the next year andthe crop of talent comingin. You do it for this longand you see it more as acontinuum of a programrather than one anddone.”

RocketsContinued from Page A8

The season has playedout somewhat like themovie “Groundhog Day.”

Like last fall, to get tothe state semifinals,Mount Notre Dame HighSchool’s field hockeyteam had to defeat Ursu-line. A 2-0 win over Fair-mont on Oct. 22 put theCougars in the “eliteeight” matchup with thetop seed from Blue Ash.

The Lions’ No. 1 seedwas an issuewithMNDastheyhadalreadydefeatedthem2-1onSept. 25.Whilethe two Girls GreaterCatholic League schoolsshare common beliefs, onthe field it’s Hatfields andMcCoys.

“I would say Ursulineis our biggest rivalry infield hockey,” coach BethVonderbrink said. “Feelslike it’s a repeat of lastyear.”

Exactly one month af-ter they last met, the Cou-gars and Lions had a clas-sic confrontation Satur-day, withMNDprevailingagain 4-3 to earn a secondconsecutive trip to UpperArlington and the Divi-sion I state semifinals.

They will play at noonFriday against ShakerHeights at Upper Arling-ton.

According to the teamTwitter account@MND_FH, Mount NotreDame has gone two sea-sons undefeated in theSouth West Ohio FieldHockey League – all 20games.

Several seniors willnow have their swan songin Columbus.

Among those depart-ing from this year’s crewwho have led MND areMoriah Flynn, Sarah Pis-ciotta, Ashley Wittmanand Caroline Warming.Ally Benz has been ingoal, shutting out numer-

ous opponents.“We really rely on her

leadership in the back-field,” Vonderbrink said.“Most of the seniors haveplayed four years. Theyknow what it’s all about,they knowwhat it takes tobe ready.”

Thus far, only one sen-ior will be playing in col-lege next season, and thatwillbe inadifferentsport.Flynn has committed toplayforanup-and-cominglacrosse program at Mar-quette. Vonderbrink feelsher mental and physicaltoughness will suit herwell in the Big East.

“She’s very aggressiveand knows how to handleherself in competitive sit-uations,” Vonderbrinksaid. “We call her ‘TheBulldog.’ ”

TheMND coach wouldnow like to get the Cou-gars beyond the semifi-nals where they lost a dif-ficult match with Gahan-

naColumbusAcademy1-0in overtime a year ago.

In 2004, Vonderbrinkwas able to make a statefinal as a player, as MNDfinished as runner-up.

“They need to getthemselves one,” Vonder-brink said. “They’veworked really hard thisyear. We’ve had our upsand downs, but in tourna-ment time, they’re readyto play.”

AsanemployeeofHer-shey, the head Cougar isprepared to shower herpack in post-Halloweenchocolates should theypull the trick and earn thetreat.

As for next season,eight juniors will soon as-sume leadership roles.

Behind them is a juniorvarsity team that finishedsecond in the league, butwon their tournament.Naturally, it was againstUrsuline.■

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 thiscommunity

and across the country havetold me, the key to job creationis removing the obstacles thatprevent their businesses fromgrowing and adding employ-ees.

The first obstacle we mustaddress 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, theHouse 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.

Restore funding cutsto PWC

People Working Coopera-tively plays a crucial role inthe City of Cincinnati provid-ing critical home repairs andservices so that low income,elderly, disabled homeownersand veterans can remain intheir homes living indepen-dently in a safe and healthyenvironment.

Our mission to help asmany people in our communi-ty as we can is now at seriousrisk. The City of Cincinnati,who we consider a supportivepartner, has recommended areduction on PWC’s budget.

Recent action by City Counciland the Mayor has restoredsome of the recommendedreduction. For this we areappreciative.

However, PWC is so effec-tive in maximizing every dol-lar, I believe the fundingneeds to be restored in full.The organization is ranked inthe highest category by theCommunity DevelopmentAdvisory Board and is a mod-el for organizations aroundthe country.

For every dollar the Cityallocates to PWC, PWC turnsit into $3 by creatively secur-ing matching gifts and grants.In turn, the loss of every dol-

lar is actually a loss of $3 tothe PWC budget. Continuingfull financial support of PWCis such a wise investment byCincinnati in Cincinnati and awise use of the taxpayer dol-lars.

I am asking our city lead-ers to reconsider cuts to PWCand to restore all funding tothis effective and efficientorganization. The city’s returnon investment with PWC issignificant but the impact ofPWC’s work in our Cincinnatineighborhoods and families isfar greater.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

In last week’s paper, myopponent Ted Winkler belittledmy life’s work, so, let me setthe record straight.

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

As Congressman, I focusedon constituent work, helping tofind solutions for citizens whowere frustrated in their deal-ings with the federal govern-ment.

As an attorney I repre-sented clients at every level ofthe judiciary, arriving at out-comes that satisfied my clientsand our community. My expe-rience in public service hasindeed been diverse, and it’s

exactly thekind of experi-ence that theProbate Courtneeds.

As I shookhands withvoters acrossthe county atchurch festi-vals, parades,and flea mar-

kets people shared with metheir experiences at criticaljunctures in their lives, con-firming my belief that theProbate Court is a place whereI can make a difference.

I heard people open upabout how they feel helpless tostop the downward spiral of an

adult child or brother or sistersuffering with mental illnessor substance abuse, fearingthat the troubled family mem-ber would spend a lifetime inand out of trouble with the law,homeless on the streets, orworse.

Young couples told meabout their protracted strug-gles to adopt a child, at timesfinding it difficult not to bediscouraged by bureaucraticred tape, wondering how achild they want to love as theirown is still not theirs. Peopletold me how confusing it is toprobate a deceased parent’sestate while still grieving fortheir loss.

What all these people told

me was further proof of what Ialready know as an attorney –that the Probate Court is trulya cradle to grave court wherepeople come for help.

Unlike other courts wherepeople are brought to answercriminal charges or wherecivil disputes over money areresolved, the Probate Court iswhere people come for help onthe most personal and sensi-tive of matters.

I believe the Probate Judgecan and should advocate forfamilies in time of crisis. Andto help citizens, I have pro-posed a Probate Academy tobe held at senior citizen cen-ters and other locationsthroughout the county where

people can come to learn aboutwills, the steps of estate ad-ministration, the adoptionprocess, and other importantaspects of the court.

One thing this campaign hasmade clear is that the mostimportant role of the ProbateCourt Judge is to help others.

I’m asking for your supportbecause together we can makethe Probate Court even morehelpful to our families, and tothousands of our fellow citi-zens.

That’s why I ask for yourvote on Tuesday.

Oct. 23 questionTwo women were killed

when hit by a vehicle whilewalking along Old ColerainAvenue and East Miami RiverRoad earlier this month. Whatprecautions do you take whenwalking?

“Walk/run facing traffic –and step aside when you seetraffic coming. Wear brightcolored clothing (even re-flective clothing) to assureyou are easily seen by on-coming vehicles.”

C.G.

“I really like to walk andconsider it a perfect non-damaging, low cost, exercise.After leaving a job that pro-vided me with the opportuni-ty to frequently take verylong walks in new places, Itried several ways to use ourpublic roadways and side-walks to see Anderson froma new perspective. Now, Ihave a volunteer positionthat can keep me on my feetfor hours, and, so far, helpme keep those ‘unemploy-ment inches’ from requiringa new wardrobe.

“I don’t know what time ofday this took place, but obvi-ously, if it was at night, wehave all seen pedestrianswho seem clueless when itcomes to wearing highlyvisible clothing or reflectivebelts if walking at night.Walking on the side of theroad, facing traffic, in mostcases allows the walker todetermine an oncomingthreat. I haven’t masteredselecting routes at all timeswithout sharp bends in theroad, but am extra cautiousif there is not enough side

area to allow me to move outof the way, on the side uponwhich I am walking. In An-derson Township, many ofour subdivision streets havesidewalks, for which wehomeowners pay extra taxes.I have a question for allthose who seem to feel thatwalking in the street, evenwhen there are sidewalks, issomehow a pedestrian pre-rogative. Why?

“By the way, as winterapproaches, walking beforesidewalks are cleaned, orusing the plowed streetsbecause someone hasn’tcleaned their sidewalk, is areally good way to put a driv-er in an awkward and unde-sired position in alreadyhazardous driving condi-tions.”

Don Brown“I walk a lot but I always

walk in daylight facing on-coming traffic. I move offthe road when a car ap-proaches. I prefer to walk onside streets where there aresidewalks. Walking at duskor later scares me. Thereseems to be more cars (rushhour) and faster drivers atthat time of day. Go Fig-ure!!!”

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONDid you or will you vote earlythis year, or will you wait untilElection Day? Why?

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

Can you put limits on imagi-nation? Here at the GirlScouts, we don’t think so. Ev-ery day we’re inspiring girls tolook beyond their backyardand think of the possibilitiesthat lie beyond.

We provide the avenue forthem to reach their full poten-tial, in a supportive, hands-onenvironment where theychoose the activities they pur-sue and lead the way. We em-brace individuality and di-versity. Each girl has a role tofulfill and say in what they doand how they do it. This uniqueapproach is what sets GirlScouts apart.

Girl Scouts is more thanjust an organization, it’s amovement. Girls gain access toexperiences and opportunitiesthrough Girl Scouts that theymay not have on their own. Weempower them to use theirown perspective and creativity

to decide howthey want tomake an im-pact upon thecommunity inwhich we live.I’ve seen girlswho have trav-eled to Chinaand Nassau,learned fenc-ing and ballet,and much

more than they (or we) everimagined. We build girls ofcourage, confidence, and char-acter who make the world abetter place. I’m proud to be apart of that.

Research shows that morethan 90 percent of Girl Scoutparents thought their daughterwas more confident, mademore friends, and got bettergrades because of their in-volvement in Girl Scouts.Wouldn’t you want the same

thing for your daughter?We provide new and excit-

ing experiences to nearly45,000 girls in 32 counties be-cause of the dedication andhard work of our volunteers.We want to reach more girlsthan ever before, but in orderto do that, we need more volun-teers.

You don’t have to be a mom,parent, or even a woman tovolunteer. You simply needpassion to help create a bettertomorrow for girls in our com-munity. We want them to knowthat they can be absolutelyanything they want to be. Let’smake that happen.

To join or volunteer, pleasevisit girlscouts.org/join. To-gether, we can make the worlda better place.

Children’s choir addsnew satellite program

I had nuts left overfrom making caramelapples so I decided tomake some peanut brit-tle. Peanut brittle can bea tricky candy to make,and some of my recipes

call for acandythermom-eter alongwith theaddition ofbakingsoda, nei-ther ofwhich thisreciperequires. Iwill tellyou that

this peanut brittledoesn’t have the “snap”and somewhat airy tex-ture of traditional brit-tle. Regardless, it’s sooogood.

I’m thinking I shouldhave waited until theholidays to share since itmakes a fabulous giftfrom the kitchen. Butyou know me, if I makesomething that is awe-somely good, I can hard-ly wait to share. Makethis now and save therecipe to make duringthe holidays. Betchacan’t eat just one piece!

Simple peanutbrittle

Chock full of nuts. Ifyou want more of brit-tle, use less nuts. Adapt-ed from Melanie Bar-nard’s recipe. As Melan-ie told me “follow direc-tions and it works everytime.” If all you have inthe frig is salted butter,that’s OK to use.

1/2 stick unsaltedbutter

1/2 cup sugar2 tablespoons corn

syrup - I’ve used bothlight and dark and pre-fer dark

1 teaspoon vanilla2 cups salted mixed

nuts or peanutsLine cookie sheet

with foil and spray it.Stir butter, sugar andcorn syrup in pan overmedium heat until sugarmelts and mixture bub-bles and becomessmooth. Cover and cookfor a minute. Stir invanilla and nuts andcook, stirring constant-ly, until nuts are fra-grant and golden brown,about 5 minutes. Don’tovercook. Pour onto foil,spreading thin. Cool andbreak apart. Store, tight-ly covered, at room tem-perature up to a week.

Baked potatoeswith cheese saucelike Wendy’s

For the reader whowants to avoid buyingthese through Wendy’sdrive thru. Homemadeis always better! Here’sa cheese sauce that’s soversatile. It’s good onbroccoli and other veg-gies, too. Sometimes I’llwhisk in a squirt of Di-jon or dry mustard withthe milk mixture. Sharpor mild cheddar workequally well.

And here’s a questionI get asked a lot: can youuse any kind of potatoesfor baking?

Well, yes, but the truebaking potatoes, likeIdaho, have more starchin them and bake updrier and fluffy. Andthey’re really the best, Ithink, for mashed pota-toes. Others, like red,will bake up more“waxy” and firm. Mytake on it? The bakersare best, but if all youhave are red or otherkinds, go for it.

4 nice sized bakedpotatoes

2 Tablespoons butter2 Tablespoons flourSalt & pepper1 cup milk1-1/2 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. Pourcheese sauce over.

Tip from Rita’skitchen: Broccoliand cheese stuffedpotatoes

Steam some broccoliflorets and add beforepouring 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 de-cline. Research showsthat beets can help in-crease blood flow to thebrain, which helps im-

prove mental alertnessand performance andmay help prevent Alz-heimer’s.

Eat them roasted withred onions, olive oil,rosemary and thyme,then drizzled with Bal-samic vinegar for a truefeast.

Frank McElwain isknown for the Official

Cincinnati 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 The

Post-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.”

“View From the Top” by Frank McElwain.

“Peony Bouquet” by Dianne McElwain.

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 twice

whenaskedabout buy-ing anextendedservicewarranty.“Sheasked, ‘Doyou want a60,000-milewarranty?’I said, ‘OK,sure,’”

Scudder said.It was only later that

he asked about the par-ticular warranty hebought and found it wasfrom an independentcompany, not from thevehicle manufacturer.Scudder said he ran intoproblems when he tookhis car into another deal-er and showed his war-ranty.

“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 he

should bring the car backto them.

“He said, ‘If youbrought the car backhere 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 touse 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 extendedwarranty.

If you wait you’ll knowwhether you really wantto keep the car. You willprobably have to paymore for the extendedwarranty at that point.

POLICE REPORTS

Jean Muetzel, South-west Daughters of theAmerican Revolution dis-trict director and retiredMasonSchoolsmedia spe-cialist, transported25Ma-riemont DAR membersand guests back in time toan era when cell phonesand video games were to-tally unheard of.

Rather, children dur-ing the Colonial eraplayed games with ob-jects largely made fromtheirsurroundingsandof-

ten centered around fa-bles as a means of teach-ing moral tenants.

Muetzel shared hercollection and historicknowledge of Colonial-era games and toysthrough reproductionsand pictures collectedfromher travels to histor-ic sites such as Williams-burg and copies found inlocal stores such asCracker Barrel.

Her program was in-teractive in nature and at-

tendees were exposed togames such as knuckle-bones in which a coin isplaced on the back of thehand, tossed into the airand caught in the palm.Many entertaining activ-ities, such as scotch hop(hopscotch), that are stilla part of our children’slives have their roots intheColonial era or earlier.Others include I spy, cha-rades, cricket, shuttle-cock (bad mitten), la-crosse and fox and geeseand manymore.

Children cuddled dollsand played with cardgames that centeredaround “Aesop’s Fables.”Many games were de-signed to teach moral les-sons such as through aboard game in which theanswers were related todealing with a moral di-lemma. Riddles andtongue twisters were alsovery important to thechil-dren of that era as theystill are today.

Muetzel’sprogramwasdirected toward the edu-

cation component of theDAR’s three-prongedmission: education, patri-otism and preservation.DAR is a women’s, patri-otic, non-political serviceorganization with the na-tional headquarters inWashington, D.C., andchapters throughout allstates and several coun-tries.

Muetzel’s program fol-lowed a business meetinginwhichMariemontchap-ter voted to provide a fi-nancial donation to theWreaths Across Ameri-can project which in-volves the placement ofwreaths on the graves ofmilitary personnel. Someother projects presentlybeing undertaken by thechapter involve conduct-ing the Good CitizenScholarship Award con-test for high school sen-iors and the American Es-say Contest for studentsin grades five to eight.

OCTOBER 30, 2014 • INDIAN HILL JOURNAL • B9LIFE

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

Thesearchculminatedin a 2009 victory in asealed bid auction for theold McKinley SchoolBuilding on Eastern Ave-nue in Columbia-Tuscu-lum. The building hadbeen vacant for fouryears; that is, except for acovey of pigeons. Thefounders knew the build-ing was destined to be-come Cincinnati’s ownIrish Heritage Centerwhen they first sawabove the theater-ball-room stage a ring of Celt-ic knots embedded inplaster along the prosce-niumarch.Thenon-profitventure was off and run-ning.

The 44,000 square footbuilding dates from the1870s and is as solid asDublin Castle.

After much hard workby a corps of volunteers,the building houses a 200-plus seat theater-ball-room; a large center hall-way from whose ceilinghangtheflagsof Ireland’scounties (many peoplesearch for their “home”county’s flag), an office,an art gallery, an artroom, a dance room, a tearoom, a 2,000-plus book li-brary andmuseum, amu-sic room where theFriendly Sons of St. Pat-rick Glee Club practices,and, of course, because itis a touch of Ireland, awarm and engaging pubwith a large oak bar.

Oh, and there’s alwaysa drop ofGuinness 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, TheYoung Wolfe Tones,Black 47, Comas, SawDoctorsDuo (Leo andAn-to), Eddie Costello, andAlyth McCormack andTrione Marshal of the

Chieftains, plus wonder-ful local bands, singersand musicians.

» Theater, like “Moll,”“What Happened BridgieCleary,” “ACouple ofBla-guards,” “Thirst,” “Danc-ing at Lughnasa,” “Tho’ ItWere Ten ThousandMiles” and the showingoffilms, “The Quiet Man,”on its 60th anniversary.The Irish AmeircanTheater Company haswon many awards on aninternational level andmost recently broughtback the Oscar WildeAward for Best NewShow at the 2014 ActingIrish International Thea-ter Fest.

» Exhibitions, such asthose of William ButlerYeats, James Joyce andSamuel Beckett sentfrom the National Li-brary of Dublin, shownfor the first time in thiscity. Book and CD re-leases, as well as lectureson various political andcurrent topics.

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

» Semesters of Irishcourses, including danc-ing, fiddle, history (in-cluding the famine), lan-guage, art and singing.Meetings of the CelticWomen InternationalClub.

» Programs from IrishTeas with soda bread and

scones, to genealogyworkshops, Bloomsdaycelebrations, Irish Fam-ine Memorials, 1916 East-er Rising Events and St.Patrick’s Day and ParadeDay Afters celebrations.Irish Lunch and a showseries now is underway.

» Celebrations, likethe grand opening galawith Nick Clooney in2010, theGreenTieAffairin 2011 with MalachyMcCourt, as well as a re-peat Green Tie Affairs in2012 with Aidan Cronin,and 2013 with NicholasMichael. There areMem-ber Picnics and Christ-mas Parties. And therehave been a life celebra-tions and Irish Wakes.

» Irish Pub Night is“third Thursday” featur-ing free musical accom-paniment and open micfor song, stories, poetry,musicandjokes. It isverypopular.

Consider becoming amember of the center.Call the center with anyquestions at 513-533-0100for more information orvisit www.irishcenterof-cincinnati.comor the cor-responding FaceBookpage.
