Anderson Township aver-ages more than 150 volunteersfor the event, which will focuson picking up litter along countyroadways and on townshipgreenspace property, said Plan-ning and Zoning Director PaulDrury.
“The county roads have moretraffic and more litter, especial-ly on the rural parts,” he said.“The township greenspace is an-other opportunity to participateand is good for younger volun-teers to get them off the road-way.”
Drury said township officialshope the volunteerism duringthe Great American Cleanupwill translate into more partici-pation for the township’s new lit-ter cleanup program modeledon adopt-a-roadway.
Groups that would like to par-ticipate should pre-register, andthose who cannot attend thatSaturday can schedule anothertime to help, Drury said.
The Anderson TownshipPark District is also participat-ing in the Great AmericanCleanup and volunteers willhelp clean up debris at Kelloggand Laverty parks.
“Kellogg Park gets floodedregularly and with the high wa-
ter a lot of debris comes fromthe Ohio River,” said Scott Lah-man, business specialist for thePark District. “At Laverty we’llgo through the woods and pickup any debris that we don’t nor-mally see.”
Lahman said volunteers alsowill help clear out honeysuckleand landscape Laverty Park, be-tween Four Mile and Sutton

NEWTOWN — For severalyears water runoff has had a neg-ative impact on the homes alongEdith, Jefferson and Pine streetsin Newtown, though help couldsoon be on the way.
Councilman Chuck Short saidthe roads need to be "redone andrepaved" because during and af-ter heavy rainfall the streets andyards become flooded. Thecreeks along the roads overflowor offer no help at all and thedrain that the water should emp-ty into becomes obstructed withdebris.
"That really needs to be ad-dressed," Short said.
Resident Tom Benassi, wholives at 6929 Edith Road, said thewater overflow issue has oc-curred "more and more frequent-ly" in recent years with little be-ing done to address the problem.
"I can't believe there's not a so-lution," Benassi said.
He said the regular floodinghas already caused his shed to rotfrom water damage, and tempor-ary solutions from neighborshave either been ineffective orsimply pushed the water to otherareas along the roads.
Short said he's meeting withengineers in the coming days tohopefully come up with a plan tohelp residents in the neighbor-hood.

The installation of thebleachers and press boxgenerated some controver-sy in the community fromadjacent neighbors in 2011.
Opponents to the planhad expressed concernsabout increased traffic andnoise.
Williams said the oppo-sition last year came fromneighbors not knowing spe-cifically what the projectwould entail.
If the city grants condi-tional use approval, Greversaid it is hoped the plazawill be finished by mid-Au-gust prior to next schoolyear’s football and soccerseason.
The school is also con-sidering a new concessionarea and restroom facilityas part of the Project Para-dise athletic field improve-ments. However, fundinghas not been secured forthis portion of the project.Grever said any work onthe concession and rest-room facility would not be-gin until funding is ob-tained.

Newtown Village Coun-cil voted to buy the lake,known as Lake Barber, lo-cated between state Route32, Round Bottom Road andEdwards Road, in March2011 for $20,000. Sincethen, the village has sur-veyed the site and per-formed environmentaltesting.
Mayor Curt Cosby saidthe village is still ironing
out a land use agreementwith resident Doug Hall,whose property is adjacent
to Lake Barber and may beused in the planning of thepotential park. Cosby said
Hall is donating a portion ofhis land for the parking lotat Lake Barber.
Councilman ChuckShort said it would be “won-derful” to open the lake upto the public this year, butthe village is still workingout the access points of theproperty and the legalitiesof using a portion of Hall’sland for the design of LakeBarber.
“I’d like to see it done assoon as possible,” Shortsaid.
Cosby said while it’s un-likely that the lake projectwill be completed and openfor full use, he hopes to atleast allow residents ac-cess to the trail around thelake at some point this year.
“We’re not going to haveanything completed thisyear,” Cosby said.

MT. WASHINGTON —The upcoming Mt. Wash-ington Community Councilmeeting will likely includefurther discussions on aproposal to light the neigh-borhood’s water tower.
The meeting will be 7p.m. Wednesday, April 18,at the Mt. Washington Rec-
reationCenter, 1715Beacon St.
Duringthe Marchmeeting,Mt. Wash-ington resi-dent BobWettererasked coun-
cil for feedback on a plan toplace 16 strands of LEDlights on the water tower.
Wetterer, who is in-volved with the lighting ofthe tower during the holi-day season, said it would bea way to highlight an icon ofthe community throughoutthe year.
Residents attending theMarch meeting expressedreservations saying theywanted additional informa-tion and cost estimates.
“People really want toknow what it is going tolook like,” said BoardPresident Jake Williams.“They are concerned thatwhile we are not beingasked for money that put-ting our approval on itmakes us somewhat re-sponsible for its eventual
impact on the neighbor-hood.”
Wetterer said privatedonations would cover thecosts. He estimated themonthly energy costswould be about $100 amonth. However, he said hewas still waiting for confir-mation on final costs.
“All I was looking for iswhether the communityliked the idea and whether Ishould pursue the idea,”said Wetterer.
He said people he hasspoken to have liked theidea and that a petition hehas received has more than100 signatures in support oflighting the tower.
Council board memberDiana Wunder said she is infavor of lighting the tower,but that additional infor-mation is needed.
“With proper planning Ithink it would be an asset tothe community,” she said.
She said council couldpotentially be more amena-ble to the idea if specificdetails are in writing.
Wetterer said if the planis supported a committeewould be formed thatwould decide the specificoccasions during which thetower would be lit.
This committee wouldinclude Wetterer as well asa representative fromcouncil, the Mt. Washing-ton Community Urban Re-development Corp. andseveral other groups.
Wetterer can bereached at 624-8326 or [email protected].

“I was looking back at myfreshman year,” says Liu, “andBeth Seeley and I were a teamback then, too, as the youngestsisters in Fiddler on the Roof.”
Senior Beth Seeley is playingRosemary’s best friend, Smitty.“It is great to be together like thisin our last show at Anderson,”says Liu.
Seeley agrees, and Weddleadds, “It has been terrific work-ing with all the seniors on our fi-nal main stage show together.”
“How to Succeed” also fea-tures senior Mitch Klein as BudFrump, junior Ben Wadley as J.B.Biggley, and senior Jenna Grossas Hedy LaRue, as well as a castfilled with secretaries and busi-nessmen.
This is the first spring musicalwithout the involvement of DickWesp, who retired last year afteroriginating the school district
spring musical in 1964.James Galloway, band direc-
tor at Anderson, has taken Wesp’splace as producer, and is excitedto be a part of the long standingtradition. “I appreciate the suc-cess that he set up for our stu-dents,” he says. “Mr. Wesp al-lowed them to really ‘dream big’over the years and pull off greatproductions that rival the bestout there.”
Another first is the set design,which is by CCM design studentJames Horban. Evan DiTullio, thetechnical director, says, “it is aterrific set, and I am excited tohave the kids work on it.”
DiTullio has been developing agroup of student builders at An-derson. “They are learning allkind of building techniques,”says DiTullio, “from how to ex-tend the stage to how to frameand hang doors.”
Galloway also notes the manyskills that the students bring tothe show. “The professional waythat each student runs each partof the ‘machine’ that is the springmusical is amazing.”
Weddle sums it all up with awide grin: “This year's springmusical is sure to succeed. Howyou get there without really try-ing is up to you!”
Chairman of the Board Wally Whomper (sophomore Joey Loebker) escorts the vivacious Hedy LaRue (seniorJenna Gross) to greet young J. Pierrepont Finch (junior Blake Edmondson) while members of the staff lookon. PROVIDED
Anderson’s musicalis sure to ‘succeed’

ANDERSON TWP. — MitchSayre and Tanner Brondhavershared a bond through baseball.
The two spent numerous in-nings during the 2011season talk-ing about the intricacies of thegame.
The Anderson High Schoolteammates got the chance to talkshop because Brondhaver wassidelined with an ACL injury.Sayre, who pitched varsity forthe squad in 2010, had been diag-
last May.While not there physically,
Sayre’s memory is present at ev-ery Anderson game. The teamrallied around their fallen team-mate and dedicated their varsitycareers to playing in his name un-der the mantra, “This one’s foryou, Mitch.”
And Brondhaver is seeing to itthat Sayre’s contributions live on
in the Anderson community.The senior infielder started
the Mitch Sayre 1 with 6 Founda-tion, which will award one Ander-son student a scholarship of$1,016. The amount honors thenumber Sayre wore on his jersey,No. 16.
Brondhaver cherishes thetime he spent with his friend inhis final months. The two werefriends dating back to middle
school, when Sayre hit two freethrows to catapult the duo’s sev-enth-grade team to a champion-ship.
The time spent together waseye-opening for Brondhaver, whoquickly got over the fact that he’dmiss an entire season because ofinjury.

ANDERSON TWP — Headcoach Andy Wolf returns as An-derson head track coach for his32nd season as the Redskins em-bark on the 2012 campaign.
Anderson should excel in dis-tance events, while the team’ssprinters gain experience intheir respective races.

some key returning athletes.Senior Antony Parnigoni,
who has committed to run at the
University of Dayton, was astate finalist in the 3,200 meterslast year and is a two-time state
cross country qualifier.He also holds the school rec-
ord in the event (9:26)At sprint events, the Spartans

Ryan Andrews will specializein the 400 meters, according toGossett.
The squad should also scorein hurdle events, with the returnof senior Joel Neuhart, who qual-ified for regionals in the 300 hur-dles a season ago. Neuhart wasalso an important part of theschool’s 4x200- and 4x400-meterrelay teams. Senior Tyler Rossshould add depth at hurdles.

badsituation. I wasmissingmy junior year of baseballafter a promising sopho-more year playing a littlebit of varsity,” Brondhaversaid. “I was down, and thenI look at Mitch…where I'mdown for six months, but Iknow I'm going to comeback, to where he doesn'tknow if he is going to lastsix months.”
But no illness was goingto deter Sayre. Andersonbaseball was important tohim, and he wanted to be apart of the team.
That’s why Brondhaverbelieves the student whoreceives the scholarshipmust personify six charac-teristics displayed bySayre. Those qualities in-clude impact, determina-tion, courage, strength,
pride and selflessness.“It’s important to con-
tinue on his legacy and tomake sure everyone seesthe impact he had on us sen-iors and the rest of theschool,” Brondhaver said.
Students can only benominated for the awardbecause Sayre was so unas-suming that he would nev-er apply for such a scholar-ship himself, according toBrondhaver.
Sayre was always look-ingoutforothers,evendur-ing his final days.
Anderson head coachChris Newton rememberswatching a junior varsitygame with Sayre two daysbefore he died.
From his wheelchairSayre pointed out the play-ers he believed could helpthe ball club.
“He’s not thinking abouthimself. He’s thinkingabout Anderson baseballand what we need to do next
year,” Newton said. “Hewas constantly looking outfor us all throughout theyear.”
Brondhaver is hopefulto find a scholarship recipi-ent that shares Sayre’squalities because of the im-pact he had on the studentbody and the community.
“I think with the schol-arship we’re looking forsomeone with (those quali-ties) down inside them,whether or not it's therenow, we're looking forsomebody that we canbring that out of them withthis scholarship,” Brond-haver said.
The first scholarshipwill be awarded in lateMay. All nominations aredue by May 1. Nominationforms are available in theAnderson High School ath-letic office or on the Ander-son High School websiteunder forms.

There has been a lot of dis-cussion about bias in our worldrecently, and it's nothing new.When someone wants things tobe ordered a certain way, anddoesn't get his wish, he willoften complain about bias.
Bias is a fact of life. I don'tknow any normal, reasonablyintelligent adult who has not
taken a posi-tion on thecontroversialissues that faceall of us. Thesewould include:religion, abor-tion, environ-mental con-cerns, guncontrol, ourinvolvement inIraq and Af-ghanistan, our
national debt, President Obamaand President Bush, gays andgay marriage, women's rights,welfare, government involve-ment in our lives, health care,and many other things.
Generally, mature adults findthemselves having strong opi-nions on all of these things. Wegroup those opinions into cate-gories we call “Left” and“Right”, or “Liberal” and “Con-servative.” (Thomas Sowellcalled them “The ConstrainedVision” and “The UnconstrainedVision.”)
Because passions run sostrong, and our desire to see theoutcome that we desire is sogreat, it is sometimes tempting
to demonize those with whomwe disagree. We may claim thatthey are ignorant, or evil, or justmisguided. But the truth is bothsides of the ideological wars thatare fought on these matters arerepresented by well-educated,good people. We just see thingsdifferently, through differentprisms.
As an example, on the matterof abortion, advocates claim thata woman's right to determinethe course of her pregnancyoutweighs the right of a human
fetus to be carried to term.The point that I want to make
is that we label people who havestrong opinions on these thingsas “biased.” Folks, we are allbiased. I know what I believe in,and so do you. I may not be ableto construct a compelling argu-ment to convince you that I amright, but on those things onwhich I take a stand I am satis-fied with the stand I have taken.
The need within us to bevictorious and to control ourdestiny is so strong that we aresometimes prone to let our an-ger and passions cause us toclose our eyes to the viewpointsof others on these issues. Untilwe are gifted with an omnipo-tent decider of objective truthwith whom we will all agreewe'll just have to put up with ourdisagreements.
My hope is that we will ulti-mately reach a point where wecan entertain those disagree-ments without resorting to hos-tility to those with whom wedisagree. But I'm not optimisticthat we will ever get to thatpoint.
We are flawed creatures, andall we can do is to make the bestof what we are and try to seeourselves honestly, admit ourmistakes, and strive to get bet-ter. We must also recognize thattrue evil does exist, and whenwe encounter it, we must resistit.

Last week’s questionHow do you think the Su-
preme Court will rule on thehealth care law? Why?
“It's anybody's guess, andthe obvious reason is that thepolitical affiliation of the jus-tices is split virtually down themiddle, with 4 conservatives,and 4 liberals - and ONE swingvote, Justice Kennedy.
“My guess is that Scalia,Thomas, Alito and Roberts willsay Obamacare is unconstitu-tional, and Breyer, Ginsburg,Sotomayer and Kagan will sayit is fine. That leaves JusticeKennedy, and God only knowshow he will rule.
“Even if portions of the billare struck down, no one knowshow much of it will be retained.We'll just have to wait.”
Bill B.
“I think if we can get a Re-publican in office we can getrid of all this stupidity, but ifObama gets re-elected we arein real trouble.”
D.D.
“I can only hope that the Su-preme Court will rule the lawunconstitutional. No govern-ment, including this one, hasthe right to force its citizens tobuy something that they do notwant to buy. If it has the powerto do that, it has the power toforce them to do anything.
“Food, housing, and cloth-ing are just as essential to lifeas healthcare. In fact, for themajority of us who are rela-tively healthy, those needs areeven more essential to dailylife. If our government has thepower to do this I fear that theliberty that we have tenuouslyhung onto for over 200 yearswill cease to exist.”
T.H.
“No one knows. If the jus-tices act as interpreters of theConstitution I would guess thatthe law will be ruled as uncon-stitutional. If they act as poli-ticians, it's anyone's guess.
“For one thing, the state-ment that ALL Americanswould be required to partici-pate is false.
“There are many groups ofpeople who will not have to buyinto the program. This leavesthe rest of the population tofoot the bill for those who don'thave to. Sounds like anotherentitlement program to me.
“The other thing is thatthere are safety nets in placeright now for those who cannotafford insurance. Clinics, hos-pitals, charity groups ... all areavailable if you just show up.
“I would like to see govern-ment employees, includingCongress, have to abide by allthe rules they impose on ev-eryone else. Dictatorships dojust those things. This shouldnot be allowed in a free nation.
“What's next? Food police?Fines for packing the wronglunch for your kids? Mandatedscreening?”
J.K.
“They might rule in favor ofthe American people since thisseems to evolve around theright to buy or not to buy med-ical insurance.
“I think Congress wantsthis to go Obama's way as tokeep hospitals from going inthe red from unpaid medicalcosts.”
O.H.R.
“I believe it will be a closevote that endorses the LiberalDemocratic attempt to abolishour Constitutional privilegesunder the guise that Congresshas the power to absolutelycontrol (not regulate) inter-state commerce, includinghealth care.
“Consider that Congresshas run the post office for cen-turies and it is broke, and it hasalso regulated and misman-aged Medicare, Social Securi-ty and AMTRAK to name afew; all of which are on life-support.
“Only the densest citizencould believe Congress and theWhite House will make healthcare better than what it hasbeen.
“The improvements healthcare needs can be done for farless than the trillions of dollarsObama-Care will ultimatelycost. You ain't seen Big Gov-ernment bureaucracy untilyou see the full impact of Oba-ma-Care once it is up and run-ning. It's just as Nancy Pelosisaid, ‘We have to pass it in or-der to see what's in it.’ Twoyears later and we still do notfully know what a hungry mon-ster they're unleashing uponus.”
R.V.
“It is my strongest hopethat they continue to votealong the strong partisan lineswith the Republican-leaningjudges striking all aspects ofthe law down. There is no con-stitutional basis for any type offederal government subsi-dized health care or like socialservices.
“Health care is not a pro-tected right stated in either inthe Constitution or the Bill ofRights. It is something that acitizen can earn or gain accessto through hard work and get-ting and staying employed.
“I do not want to see myhard-earned tax dollars usedto fund those to listless, lazyand unmotivated to pony upand pay for their own healthcare or seek out jobs that pro-vide health care.”
I.P.
“It will be 5 to 4 against thehealth care initiative. Onlyreason being is that the fiveright-wingers do the partiesbidding and not what is corrector what is good law.
“Their decisions often indi-cate that they do not have thewell-being of the American cit-izen as their motivation.
“They are activist judges inthe worst sense. Look at manyof their decisions such as theUnited Citizen case and youcan see where the real dangerof the radical right is comingfrom.
“Congress can be vetoed orvoted out. We are stuck withAlito and his four cronies.”

Thanks to author forwriting article
I found great consolation andhope in Henry Zorn's column"The Other Voice of the ChristianChurch."
So often Christian life is re-duced to taking a certain side of a
small group of issues. But it is somuch deeper and expansive thanthis.
In all our dealings with others,when we view people as lovedchildren of God, our behaviornecessarily changes. It is a chal-lenging way to live, when humannature seems to be inclined to-
ward judgment, separation anddivision.
Thanks to Mr. Zorn for provid-ing clear, concrete examples ofhow following Jesus can trans-late into a wider range of policiesand actions.

We took a walk throughour little patch of woodsand I’ve never seen jack-in-the-pulpits, dog’s toothviolets and trilliumsblooming this soon. I’mpicking violets for jelly,
jam andvinegar.
MyfriendsButch andChar Castlehave al-ready gift-ed me withmorels, sothey’reearly, too.And if I
don’t get out soon to pickthe dandelion flowers, Iwon’t be making dandelionwine. Some of them arealready in the puffballstage.
Spring is a busy timefor many of you, as well,so I know you’ll like thequick and tasty recipesI’m sharing today.
Roman chickenThis looked so good
when Giada De Laurentiismade it on television.Here’s my adaptation. Iserved it with mashedpotatoes.
5-6 chicken thighs orbreasts, or combination ofboth, boned and skinned
Salt and pepper to taste¼ cup olive oil2-3 bell peppers, sliced (I
used red, orange andyellow)
3-4 oz. prosciutto, chopped2-3 teaspoons minced garlic
(start with 2)14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes
(I used Kroger petite)½ cup white wine
1 teaspoon each: driedoregano and thyme, plusmore oregano if desired
½ cup chicken broth2 tablespoons capers,
drainedParsley, chopped, about a
handful
Season chicken andbrown on both sides inolive oil over mediumheat. Remove and setaside. Add peppers andcook until lightly brown.Add prosciutto and cookuntil it’s crisp, but becareful so that you don’tovercook, causing it to gettough. Add garlic and cooka couple of minutes. Add
tomatoes, wine, herbs andbroth, and stir to getbrowned bits off bottom.Put chicken back in panand bring to a boil. Reduceheat to a simmer and cook,covered, until chicken iscooked through. Adjustseasonings. Stir in capersand parsley.
Tip from Rita’skitchen
Prosciutto (pro-SHOO-toh) is Italian for ham. It’sham that has been sea-soned and salt cured, butnot smoked, and air dried.
Rita’s version ofO’Charley’s caramelpie
For several readers. Igot a huge response tothis, including my neigh-bor, Lisa Caudill, who saidshe got the recipe fromthe restaurant years ago.Thanks to all who werenice enough to share. Iwent to O’Charley’s andate a piece – so rich – andthe waitress also gave methe recipe.
There are several sug-gested ways to make thefilling. The most popularis cooking two unopenedcans sweetened condensed
milk (remove wrappers)in a pan with several inch-es of water over the top ofthe cans and boiling themfor one to three hours (andmaking sure they arealways covered with boil-ing water) until milk cara-melizes in the can, andturns a tawny brown andgets very thick. Somerecipes said cook with thelid on the pan, others saidleave the pan lid off. Theproblem with boiling inthe can is that there’s aslight chance it couldexplode if it isn’t alwayscovered with boiling wa-ter. Lisa also suggestedpouring the milk in a dou-ble boiler or nonstick panand cooking it until itcaramelized. That wouldwork but would take closewatching. I figured out aneasier way that requiresno cooking! And it’s a deadringer for O’Charley’s.
Here it is:
Favorite graham crackercrust, baked
2 13.4 oz. cans dulce deleche, which is simplyalready caramelizedsweetened condensedmilk (I used Nestle LaLechera)

ANDERSON TWP. — Dr.Michael Gittelman, Ander-son Township resident andemergency departmentdoctor at Cincinnati Chil-dren’s Hospital MedicalCenter, and his co-worker,Dr. Wendy Pomerantz,were recently recognizedfor their contributions topreventing injuries amongchildren in the GreaterCincinnati area.
The doctors receivedthe Faculty CommunityAdvocacy Award at Cincin-nati Children’s and the OhioPromising Practice Awardfrom the Ohio Injury Pre-vention Partnership, whichis a part of the Ohio Depart-ment of Health.
“Most people don’t real-ize that unintentional inju-ries are the leading causeof death in our nation forpersons ages 1 to 44 years,and specifically in chil-dren, injuries have beenshown to cause moredeaths than all other dis-eases combined,” Gittel-man said. “Pomerantz and Irecognized this problemand as a result we startedthe Injury Free Coalitionfor Kids in Greater Cincin-nati in 2000.”
Gittelman said that thetheory behind their work toreduce injuries has been toprovide youth with safeplay places, educate fam-ilies about injury risks, andengage them in supervised,coordinated activities dur-ing high injury times.
This work has led tothem building 13 safe play-grounds, a football stadiumto accommodate local foot-ball teams, a safety re-source center within Cin-cinnati Children’s emer-gency department to pro-
vide proven safetyproducts to families at adiscounted price, andspearheading constructionof speed bumps strategi-cally placed in high pedes-trian-injury areas.
They also started after-school programming for atleast 150 elementary stu-dents daily, summer educa-tional classes, a Fridaynight basketball league foryouth, and a football leaguefor more than 600 youth an-nually.
These efforts led to a 42percent reduction of inju-ries in Avondale, and theyhave been replicating
these works in other high-risk injury communities.
Both doctors haveserved in leadership roleson the National AmericanAcademy of Pediatric’sCouncil Executive Com-mittee on Injury, Violence,and Poison Prevention tohelp develop national inju-ry prevention policies.
The pair also playedcentral roles in passingbooster seat legislation inOhio and a bike helmet or-dinance in Cincinnati.
The doctors also creat-ed a mandatory course ininjury prevention at Cin-cinnati Children’s.

NEWTOWN — Called the“last of the pioneer Amer-ican circus clowns” andthe “oldest living profes-sional clown” at the time ofhis death in 2008, Joe Vanispent his final years in Cin-cinnati where he still loved
treating un-derprivi-leged chil-dren to thecircus,even intohis 90s.
New-town resi-dent GaryHicks has
recently published a bookabout Vani.
Entitled “An Interviewwith a Clown; The Life andTimes of ProfessionalClown Joe Vani of TheSherman Brothers,” it in-cludes numerous photo-graphs as well as a glossa-
ry of circus terms.Vani and his deceased
partner, Chester Sherman,reached the pinnacle oftheir profession when theywere inducted into theClown Hall of Fame in Wis-consin in 1995.
Performing as the Sher-man Brothers for 38 years,they worked with many ofthe greats, including Em-mett Kelly Sr., Clyde Beat-ty and the Flying Wallen-das.
Vani loved his life andhe loved being a clown,though his early yearswere hard ones. While hedid not exactly run away tothe circus, he did run away,at theageof16, fromtheor-phanage where he hadlived since age 6.
True to his enterprisingnature, he worked his wayfrom Western Union deliv-ery boy to hotel bellhop to
clown apprentice. He saidhe continued to hone hiscraft throughout his life.
Hicks’ book, which fea-tures a question-and-an-swer format, provides awealth of details and anec-dotes about the daily life ofthe circus, and, in particu-lar, the life of the clown.
Vani divulges suchclown secrets as how hemade his own white facepaint with Crisco and pow-dered zinc oxide. “It wasgood for our skin. Very fewof the clowns ever had anyblemishes.”
A dog named Lucky waspart of the act, but the duoended up having seven dif-ferent dogs – all namedLucky and almost all ofthem rescued from the dogpound.
After Sherman died in1976, Vani continued toperform until his eyesight
began to fail him in 1980.That is when he met
Hicks, who was a vocation-al rehabilitation counselorassisting the blind.
Hicks helped Vani en-roll in the Blind VendorsTraining Program in Co-lumbus, Ohio. “He becamethe oldest graduate of theprogram at the age of 80and operated a variety offood concessions in theCincinnati area for morethan five years,” writesHicks.
“I decided that I wantedto write Joe’s biography sothat all of these great sto-ries and the way of life of acircus performer would beremembered, “ said Hicks.
“Interview with aClown” can be bought for$20 from Hicks. Contacthim [email protected].

Anderson Townshipresident Deanna Hurtu-bise has had a new chil-dren’s book published.
“A Guardian Angel’sLesson” is Hurtubise’sthird book and tells thestory of how a guardianangel learns the ins andouts of the job.
“The reader can followthe excited cherub fromthe moment God has cho-sen him for the job to the
moment he leaves Heavenand begins the task fallingcompletely in love withGod’s newest creation,”said Hurtubise. “The art-ist, Richa Kinra, did a fab-ulous job of creatingtouching, inspiring illus-trations.I basically had togive her verbal descrip-tions of what I saw in mymind’s eye and she took itfrom there and it turnedout beautifully.”
“My 3-year-old grand-daughter asked me to tellher a story about herguardian angel and this
was the result. Of course,the book is dedicated toher!” Hurtubise said.“Grandchildren are just awealth of inspiration forstory ideas. This is thesecond book I have hadpublished that resultedfrom them and with eightlittle ones to inspire meI’m sure there will bemore stories in the fu-ture.”
Hurtubise is the authorof “So Many Hugs,” and anhistoric fiction book, “TheBoys Who DiscoveredYesterday.”

If my father were in acoma, how can I be surethat I will make the treat-ment decisions he wouldwant for himself? When isthe right time to make myend-of-life wishes known tomy family?
It’s never too early toask these important ques-tions, and National Health-care Decisions Day(NHDD) April16 is the per-fect time to start the con-versation with your lovedones.
Crossroads Hospice in-vites the community tolearn more about advancecare planning and to com-plete advance directives, afree document that speci-fies a person’s end-of-lifehealthcare wishes to lovedones and providers. Ohio’sadvance directive andguidelines are available on-line anytime at crossroad-shospice.com/nhdd.
Only one in four Ameri-cans has an advance direc-tive in place, according tothe American Medical As-sociation. That’s whyCrossroads Hospice isamong more than 1,000 na-tional, state and communi-ty organizations participat-ing in NHDD, a movementstarted in April 2008 toraise awareness of the im-portance of communicat-ing and documentinghealthcare decisions.
“One in four people will
be forced to make a life-al-tering decision for a lovedone,” Cindee Tresslar, ex-ecutive director of Cross-roads Hospice in Cincin-nati. “These decisions areamong the hardest to make,and should not be deter-mined at the time of a cri-sis. On National Health-care Decisions Day, we en-courage all adults to com-municate their end-of-lifewishes with loved onesthrough an advance direc-tive.”
Advance care direc-tives allow people to namesomeone to speak on theirbehalf if they are no longerable. The document spellsout what types of treat-ments a person wants andwhen to choose other op-tions such as hospice care,which focuses on improv-ing the quality of terminal-ly ill patients’ lives.
Crossroads Hospice iscommitted to being at theforefront of the hospicecare industry, to continual-ly shape the way end-of-lifecare is viewed and admin-istered. The mission ofCrossroads Hospice is toprovide highly unique,comprehensive, and com-passionate hospice ser-vices to persons experienc-ing a life-limiting illnessand to their caregivers.
