DELHI TWP. — Thetownship has establisheda Community Improve-ment Corporation to aid inits economic develop-ment strategies.
Pursuant to the OhioRevised Code, a nonprofitCommunity Improve-ment Corporation can beformed as a developmentagency to advance, en-courage and promote theeconomic, commercialand civic development ofa community or area.
“We’ll use it as an eco-nomic development tool,”Delhi Township Adminis-trator Pete Landrum said.“There are more than 600CICs in Ohio. This isn’tanything new, we’re actu-ally a little late in formingone.”
day, Jan. 14, at the town-ship administration build-ing, 934 Neeb Road. Thepurpose is to set organiza-tional structure for 2015.
Landrum said thetownship’s CIC will be ad-ministered by a boardconsisting of himself, thetownship trustees and thefiscal officer. All meet-ings will be open to thepublic, and he said thetownship will provide thepublic with notice of whenmeetings will take place.
Formation of the CICgoes hand-in-hand witheconomic developmentplans the township has un-derway, he said. For in-
stance, he said the town-ship is not permitted tobuy property for develop-ment purposes, but a CICcan.
Landrum said hedoesn’t expect the CIC tobe very active this year,but the township wants tobe prepared and have itready to go should theneed for it arise.
The township conduct-ed a community surveythis past summer to gath-er feedback from resi-dents and business own-ers regarding economicdevelopment initiativesand the future of Delhi,and the township is work-ing to create a strategicredevelopment plan spe-cifically for the DelhiPike business district.
Part of that includes re-viewing and updating thetownship’s land use andzoning plans, and Lan-drum said the townshiphas requested proposalsfrom professional designservice companies forhelp in preparing a rede-velopment plan.
“We are just beginningour economic develop-ment plan as far as the legwork and research, but weare taking this very seri-ously,” he said.
The township’s landuse plan is more than 10years old, and he said Del-hi officials want to reviewit to determine whichsites are best for redevel-opment, identify whattypes of businesses arebest suited for Delhi Pikeand how those propertiesshould look aesthetically.

» Jack McSwiggin, a fifth-grader at J.F. Dulles Elemen-tary in Bridgetown, wants tothank everybody that helpedthe school collect cell phonesfor the Cincinnati Zoo’s “GoBananas Challenge” lastspring, especially the localbusinesses that let him put acollection box in their estab-lishments – Aroma’s Java andGelato, Bridgetown FinerMeats, Delhi and Harrison PetCenter, Diane’s Restaurant,Fifth-Third Bank (Bridgetownbranch), Hatting’s Supermar-ket, Supreme Nut and Candy(Bridgetown), and Jeff’s Mara-thon (at Bridgetown and Ebe-nezer roads).
McSwiggin first heardabout the Challenge whileattending the Zoo’s SummerCamp. He learned that recy-cling cell phones helps savegorilla habitat in Africa, sincea mineral, called coltan, ismined in areas where gorillaslive.
McSwiggin spearheaded thecampaign for Dulles, hoping towin the first place prize of$4,000 to help the school pur-chase new playground equip-ment. Although Dulles came insecond place – 64 phones be-hind the first place winnersfrom Parkside IntermediateSchool in Westlake – studentswere able to collect 1,574phones in three months.
In recognition of Dulles’efforts, Ron Evans, the Zoo’sTeam Leader of Primates,presented McSwiggin with apicture painted by Jomo, theZoo’s silverback Western-low-land gorilla. The picture willeventually hang in the hallwayat Dulles.
Undeterred by last year’ssecond-place finish, McSwig-gin is collecting cell phones fornext spring’s “Go BananasChallenge”. Anyone interestedin helping Jack and J.F. DullesElementary to reach their goal
of recycling 3,000 cell phonescan donate their phones at thefollowing locations:
» J. F. Dulles Elementary,6481 Bridgetown Road;
» Aroma’s Java and Gelato,6407 Bridgetown Road;
» Bridgetown Finer Meats,6135 Bridgetown Road;
» Delhi and Harrison PetCenter, 5665 Rapid Run Road;
» Diane’s Restaurant, 1951Anderson Ferry Road;
» Hatting’s Supermarket,6148 Bridgetown Road.
Old Blackberries, iPods,digital cameras, and handheldgaming devices also counttoward the total. Devices andphones can also be mailed tothe school via the US PostalService if the package ismarked “Lithium battery, forground transport only.”
All phones and devices mustbe received by Friday, March27. “Thanks in advance to any-body who can help us thisyear,” McSwiggin said.
Oak Hills High School
» Oak Hills High Schoolstudents in grades 10-12 in theBusiness Department’s Bank-ing & Financial Literacy classactively participated in a bud-geting simulation in conjunc-tion with the OSU ExtensionProgram.
Students were randomlyassigned careers and given theaverage salary for that career.They had to imagine they were27 years old and married.Some students in the simula-
tion had children, some did not.This activity, done every se-mester for the last five years,has students calculate pay-check deductions, health insur-ance premiums and set asidemoney for retirement.
On simulation day, studentsmust make spending choicesthat every adult must make intheir daily lives includingmortgage/rent, insurance,child care, food, utilities, etc.
“I thought this was a good
simulation because it showshow the job/career you choosecan affect how you spend mon-ey,” senior Zach Marshall said.
“It makes you realize how
expensive life after highschool will be,” senior JustinKnott shared.
Joe Poggemann, senior said,“I can take away a lot from this
simulation because it showshow life is going to be after Imove out of my parents’house.”

With wind chill tem-peratures dipping belowfreezing, I’m having tofill up the bird feederstwice a day and check onthe girls/chickens everyfew hours to bring them
fresh wa-ter. I want-ed to tellyou, too, tocheck onneighborswho areelderly orshut in.Bringthem abowl of hotchicken
broth to which youcooked in cheese tortelli-ni and a handful of freshspinach. A sprinkling ofParmesan is good in thesoup, too. Nourishing andwarms one all over!
Remember I told youanything fermented isgoing to be popular thisyear due to the healthbenefits? Kimchi is oneof those and a popularKorean dish. I got thisrecipe from a fellowcookbook author at a fooddemo during MotherEarth News Fair lastyear. Tasty, and a goodplace to start when mak-ing homemade Kimchi. Iplan on making this onFox 19’s morning showfor Rob Williams, whoabsolutely loves Kimchi.
Mild Kimchi1 head Chinese or
Napa cabbage, about 3pounds, cut into 2”pieces
1 Daikon radish,about 4”, peeled andthinly sliced
1 carrot, thinly sliced
1/2 cup pickling salt4 garlic cloves,
minced2 tablespoons Kore-
an chili paste or 2 tea-spoons Chinese chilipaste/sauce with garlic
1 teaspoon peeledminced fresh gingerroot
1 teaspoon sugar orto taste (I think youcould substitute honey)
Combine cabbage,radish, carrot and salt inbowl. Mix to combine andadd ice water to cover.Let stand for 2 to 6 hours.
reserved brine to coverand fill to top of jar. Cov-er to exclude air.
Set jar on saucer tocatch overflow that hap-pens when fermentationbegins. Store in dark,cool place.
Begin tasting after 1day, and refrigerate up to5 days. It will continue toage and develop flavor.Keeps several months.
Tip from Rita’s kitch-en: Go to taste on flavor-ings. I would use morechili paste.
My favoriteguacamole
This has a smoky fla-vor due to the chipotlepeppers. Nice for SuperBowl coming up.
3 large ripe Hass avo-
cados - peeled, pittedand scooped out
2 limes, juiced1 teaspoon salt1/2 cup diced red
onion Chopped cilantro to
taste3/4 teaspoon cumin
or to taste1 minced clove garlic
or more to tasteChipotle peppers in
adobo to taste (puree infood processor andthen store in frig orfreezer; this is mucheasier to measure outthan the whole peppersin sauce)
2 Roma tomatoes,diced
Mash the avocadosvery gently with potatomasher. Some people lay
the avocado down flatand cut it into very smallpieces. Regardless, youdon’t want to overmashor it will become soupy.
Stir in lime juice totaste, and salt. Stir inonion, cilantro, cumin,garlic, peppers. Stir intomatoes. Serve withchips.
Tips from Rita’skitchen:
Ripening avocados.Although avocados aremature when pickedfrom the tree, they arenot ripe. Place in paperbag. This traps the ethyl-ene gas they produce andhelps to ripen. It willripen at room temper-ature in 3-5 days. Skincolor will darken and
flesh underneath will bea bit soft.
Hass. These comefrom California with abuttery texture. The skinis tough and durable —ideal for shipping, andfor use as a scooping cupwhen removing flesh.
Hall. From Florida andare bright green, smoothskinned avocados.
Good for you: Loadedwith potassium, folicacid, vitamins C and E,also fiber and hearthealthy monounsaturatedfat.

PRICE HILLPRESS
Price Hill Press EditorRichard [email protected], 248-7134 Office hours: 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-FridaySee page A2 for additional contact information.
I first learned about oursocial structure at St. William.
Probably the sixth- or sev-enth-grade – 1963 or 1964. Sis-ter explained that, because welived in Price Hill, we were“definitely middle-class.”
I remember being disap-pointed to learn that I wasn’t“upper-class.” I no longer feltas important. I think my class-mates felt it too. But at leastwe weren’t “lower-class.” Wewere taught to be proud to livein Price Hill because it was“German, Catholic, solid mid-dle-class!”
It wasn’t long afterwardthat the assumed richest kid inmy class moved to Clifton. Iwondered. Why would his fam-ily want to move? He lived inthe biggest and best house on agreat street – Ridgeview! And
then I thought.Maybe his daddidn’t want tolive in PriceHill becausehe didn’t thinkof himself asbeing “middle-class.”
I struggledwith whyneighborhoodswere identi-fied by class.
It didn’t seem fair. Just be-cause I lived in Price Hill I wasstereotyped as being “middle-class.” Presumably, a higherclass person, or a lower-classperson for that matter,wouldn’t feel comfortableliving next door to me. I won-dered.
What defines class? Is it
income? Education? Workethic? Manners – how we treatothers? Why didn’t Sister ex-plain? Why did she even bringthe subject up? I reasoned thatbecause she did, I would neversee my classmate again. If shehadn’t, we would always begood friends.
Recently, upon reading DickPerry’s book, “Vas You Ever InZinzinnati?” I learned whatwas happening in Price Hill atthe time; and obviously beingtalked about: “The brow of thehill used to be elite. No more.Great houses the size of castlesare being sliced into apart-ments. Decay has set in, slowlycreeping west, and givingsome homeowners the willies.”
The late 1800s marked thebeginning of a huge influx ofGerman Catholics; giving
“elite” Price Hill its German,Catholic, middle-class persona– and initiating the west sidetradition of identifying one’sneighborhood by a parishname. Perhaps the well-in-tended Sister wished to hidethe fact that Holy Family, a“Catholic neighborhood” hadturned poor. Maybe she wantedto cure the St. William willies.
Regardless, branding aneighborhood as “middle-class” is perhaps not the bestidea. Residents who perceivethemselves as being “upper-middle-class” usually move;which begins a downwardtrajectory. The new residentswho replace them are likely tobe the less affluent who desireto enter the ranks of the mid-dle-class. Over time this repet-itive process removes from the
neighborhood its role modelleaders – the strongest strandof neighborhood fabric.
Arguably, the best way for aneighborhood to attract a con-tinuous parade of desired resi-dents is to avoid the trappingsof an ethnic, faith or classdistinction. Instead, what isneeded is a vision inspired, upand coming, it’s destined to getbetter vibe.
Interestingly, today whenasked “Where do you live?” welike to say, “The West Side.” Iwonder. Is this another way ofsaying, “I’m definitely middle-class!”

“Changing the public per-ception and information aboutwhy legislation is not actedupon. The American peopleare tired of the Constitutionbeing ignored. After eliminat-ing the hideous tax of Obama-care, legislation to ensure newemployment should be the toppriority. This would mean,among many other things, aviable means for companies toprovide health care benefits,possibly the Keystone Pipe-line, and certainly an agree-ment to publish and read alllegislation before voting. Re-quiring legislation to describeits basis in the Constitutionwould be a great start.”

Thankful for Cincinnatipolice
In the Dec. 24 CincinnatiEnquirer was a letter writtenby a police officer in supportof police officers throughoutour country.
In the article he mentionedthat he is sorry that a lot ofpeople do not see police offi-cers as human beings whowillingly risk their lives forstrangers every single dayand that he is very proud of
his profession. As a retired small busi-
nessman in the Price Hill/Western Hills area for manyyears I have known andlearned to appreciate themen and women in the Cin-cinnati Police Departmentfirst hand.
I also want to go on recordas a very thankful citizen thatwe have such a fine group ofpeople watching out for usevery single day.

Saloons, beer and eventuallyprohibition have been a part ofPrice Hill life.
Larry Schmolt, past presi-dent and co-ordinator of the
Price Hill His-torical Societywrote “PriceHill Saloons,” abook filled withhistory andremem-brances. Thefollowing istaken from hisbook.
“By 1892,Cincinnatibreweries
were producing a million and ahalf barrels of beer a year withthe city residents, around half amillion people, consuming850,000 barrels. It’s calculatedthat the average consumptionper person was 50 gallons, pour-ing nearly 10 million dollars intothe local economy each year.
“Much of that beer was soldin mom and pop saloons such asthe popular Depot Saloon at thecorner of West Eighth and De-pot Street in Lower Price Hill.Very likely there were mahoga-ny front and rear bars withshelves lined with bottles of thefinest whiskey. The bartenderwould draw you a cold beer fora nickel. At the rear was thefree lunch counter loaded withfood to fill a hungry workman’sappetite.
“One only had to purchase a
beer to take advantage of thefree lunch. The barkeeper wasbetting that his customers,many who worked in the neigh-borhood, would linger awhileand purchase several morebeers. He and his family wouldhave lived above the bar withhis wife doing the cooking thatkept the lunch counter stocked.
“Later, the name Depot Sa-loon changed to Christoph’sCafe and Grill where food wasstill served but at a nominalcost. During these years, thesaloon remained popular be-cause of its location at a cross-roads to the west side of town.Four streetcars passed by theintersection of Eighth and State.Some passengers transferred tocars going to other locations butmany worked in the factories
and rail yards in the area. Work-ers got off at 3 pm, the closingtime for local banks. Eager tocash their paychecks, Chris-toph’s would cash them for justa few pennies, anticipating thatthe workers would stay aroundfor a few beers and maybe ashot of whiskey from the topshelf.
“Times change. Gus Kurlasbought the place and renamed itthe Gus Kurlas Cafe. Automo-biles became popular andstreetcars eventually died out.Fewer and fewer people weretransferring at Eighth andState. Businesses relocated andthe saloon business fell off.Gus’ Cafe wasn’t such a friend-ly place anymore. Customersbecame loud and argumenta-tive, with fights all too common.One day at the cafe, a customerwas killed during a fight. It wasdecided to hide the body byburying it under the concretefloor in the basement. Unfortu-nately for Gus, the fresh con-crete led police to the body ofthe missing man and the saloonclosed for good. It was a sadending to a once popular westside establishment.”
“Price Hill Saloons" is filledwith historical facts, laced withhumor. I’ll be sharing otherstories from it. i

SPORTSSPORTSHIGH SCHOOL | YOUTH | RECREATIONAL CommunityPress.com
GREEN TWP. — Not many pro-grams, in any sport, can boastthe record that Oak Hills HighSchool has posted in bowlingover the last decade.
From 2006-2014, the Oak Hillsboys’ bowling team is 106-17 inregular season head-to-headmatches. During that span, theHighlanders finished first (sev-en times) or second (twice) in theGreater Miami Conference eachseason. They’re looking for theirsixth-straight GMC title.
This season, they’re off to a6-1 start and they’re in search oftheir third-straight trip to thestate tournament. Last season,Oak Hills finished second over-all at the Division I district tour-nament.
Third-year coach Kurt Fran-cisco gave all the credit to hispredecessors.
“In the past we’ve had a lot ofgood coaches,” said Francisco.“For a lot of us, our upbringingwas bowling and a lot of the peo-ple that live in the district have apassion for the sport.”
Passion is an understate-ment. The Highlanders aresteeped with talent. They havefive bowlers that average higherthan 191 a game.
Seniors Brandon Combs andDillon Meece lead the way.Meece averages 215.5 per game,third-highest in the GMC, onespot ahead of Combs who rolls214.6 a game.
Senior Jeremy King has a201.3 game average, senior IanRieger has a 194.3 game averageand freshman Alex Rieger aver-ages 193.6 per game.
Oak Hills’ secret is fairly sim-ple.
“Execution and the passion towant to win,” said Francisco. “Idon’t know if it’s (the passion)more than the other team, but Ithink there’s a little more in it for
our kids.” Francisco said he has a few
guys who play, or have played,other sports. But, for the mostpart his guys are just bowlers, sothey’re dedicated. They’ve in-vested in bowling and it seems tobe paying off.
Oak Hills is ranked No. 1 inThe Enquirer Division I areacoaches’ poll. Although, theHighlanders suffered their firstloss of the season Jan. 8 in ashootout against one of the othertop teams in the city, Middle-town (10-0). Both teams bowledthe lights out, and the Middieswon 3,095-3,001.
“It’s nice to know we’reranked there because the cali-ber of our team is just thatgood,” Francisco said. “It’s stillmidseason and anything canchange when the second halfcomes around.”
The Highlanders, not lackingany confidence, have theirsights set on the postseason.
“The only people that are go-ing to beat us is us,” Franciscosaid. “I think if they can concen-trate and keep their heads ontheir shoulders they’ll be fine.”

How long has it been since Elder opened abasketball season as robustly as the current edi-tion?
Kyle Rudolph was a sophomore.Rudolph, now a Minnesota Vikings tight end,
led those Panthers to a 15-0 start on their way tothe outright Greater Catholic League South Di-vision championship and a regional final ap-pearance.
Elder tied Moeller for the next season’schampionship, but the Panthers haven’t earnedeven a share of a GCLS title since then. Seniorguard Brad Miller is hoping this year’s sizzling10-0 start is a harbinger of that slump beingsnapped.
“It’s been a while since we’ve been in the con-versation,” the 6-foot-1 Miller said Wednesdaywhile taking a break from exams. “We talkedabout in the off-season. I’m extremely anxious.We want to see if we can win the league. We thinkwe can.”
The Panthers’ pursuit of that elusive champi-onship won’t start until next Friday against de-fending-champion Moeller, the No. 7 team in theEnquirer’s Division I coaches’ poll, at Elder.They prepared with tests on Saturday againstCooper, ranked eighth in the Enquirer’s Ken-tucky coaches’ poll, and on Tuesday Oak Hills,the No. 7 Enquirer Ohio team. Those are themiddle games in a run of four straight at homethat started last Saturday with a 76-52 win overRoger Bacon, the Enquirer’s Division II-IV No. 4team.
Miller and coach Joe Schoenfeld saw thiscoming last season, which ended with five winsin the last seven games with a lineup featuringMiller and three sophomores – guards FrankieHofmeyer and Joey Sabato and forward PeytonRamsey. The 6-foot Hofmeyer leads the GCLS inscoring with an average of 15.5 points per game,just ahead of Miller at 14.5, while the 5-9 Sabatoranks second in both assists at 6.0 per game andsteals with 3.3 per game.
“We only have four seniors on the team thisyear, but we anticipated that we would have agood team,” said Schoenfeld, who’s in his 24thseason as Elder’s head coach. “We’re off to agood start, but we’ve got some tough gamescoming up.”
Ramsey is part of a dependable front line thatincludes 6-10 junior Nate Roell, who leads theGCLS with a 60.7 field-goal percentage.
“Nate and (6-5 senior) Mitch Moorhead and(6-5 junior) Tommy Kraemer are doing a goodjob around the basket finishing and settingscreens,” Schoenfeld said. “Nate didn’t play aton at the start of the year, but he worked his wayin during practice.”
If anything, Elder’s practices might be morecompetitive than some of the Panthers’ games.Schoenfeld is blessed with more depth than he’sused to, which also leaves him with his biggestproblem.
“We’re still trying to figure out our best line-ups for ‘this’ time and ‘this’ situation,” he said.“That’s the biggest question mark. You can only

Schoenfeld under-stands that most coacheswould trade places withhim in a heartbeat.
“It’s a very good situa-tion to be in,” he admits.“We usually don’t have thedepth that we have thisyear.”
Facing that kind ofpressure every day helpsthe Panthers deal withsqueamish game situa-tions, Miller said.

SIDELINES
SPRINGFIELD TWP. — St.Xavier High School hasbeen pleasantly surprisedearly on this basketballseason.
Coming into the year,the Bombers weren’t surewhat they would have.They lost a lot of from theyear before. What theyfound, this year, is a teamthat can play pretty welltogether. They’re stillgathering informationand learning about one an-other. But, at 6-2, theyseem to be gelling nicely.
“We didn’t know whatto expect from anybodybecause we lost so manyguys from last year,” saidSt. Xavier coach ScottMartin.
The Bombers had justone returning starter
back this season, 6-foot-1senior guard Jack Wester-field.
The difference, so far,with a fresh group hasbeen energy and unself-ishness.
“The guys have reallycome along, they’re shar-ing the basketball andplaying unselfish” Martinsaid. “They play reallyhard. They put a lot of en-ergy out there and try toget everything they can.”
For the most part,they’ve done it with de-fense, lacking a true scor-er offensively. Wester-field leads St. X with 8.5points per game.
“That (scoring) is a ma-jor challenge for us,” Mar-tin said. “We’re more of ateam trying to go to theguy that’s hot in thatgame.”
Without a real threat,
St. X has spread the pointsamong James Heskett(8.3 ppg), Sam Martin (7.5ppg), Josh Theis (6.8 ppg)and Joe Schroeder (5.6ppg), whom coach Martinsaid has been a real nicesurprise.
The process of learn-ing about each other andthe team has been a posi-tive for the Bombers.
“We’re kind of learningwhich combinations arebest for us and what posi-tions guys can play,” saidMartin. “We’ve been do-ing that and graduallyfinding out what we dowell and what we need towork.”
Throughout the proc-ess, St. X has won threeclose games. Martin likesthat. The coach said thatbeing able to win closegames is something thatcan’t be coached. It’s a
sign that a team is mental-ly tough and has confi-dence.
Martin knows thoseclose games mostly re-semble the type of gamesthat remain on the sched-ule.
The Bombers areabout to being the treach-erous part of their sched-ule, Greater CatholicLeague South action. Cur-rently, the GCL South is acombined 28-8 and St. Xopened league play host-ing La Salle on Jan. 9.
“We know we’re get-ting into that part of theschedule where we’replaying top-10 teams inthe city and maybe thestate,” Martin said. “It’sgood to see where westand. I think we’re upthere but we’re not consis-tent enough in the scor-ing.”
