The idea of having a“kit-bag” for packingyour troubles in wassomething for WWI sol-diers to sing about.

Foster children in theCincinnati area might besinging a similar tunewhen they too receivebags from the “Cases forLove” suitcase drivestarted by College Hillresident Julie Phillippi-Whitney.

For this drive, resi-dents throughout South-western Ohio, NorthernKentucky, SoutheasternIndiana and Dayton areasked to donate theirgently used or new lug-gage, duffels or back-packs, any shape, color orsize. The bags can bedropped off at any SibcyCline location or at Uni-versity Moving and Stor-age, 8735 Rite Track Wayin West Chester Town-ship, between the hours of9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Mondaythrough Friday, nowthrough Feb. 13. You canalso follow the campaignon Facebook at www.face-book.com/Cases4Love.

Whitney said the inspi-ration for this massiveluggage drive came froman episode of ABC “WorldNews Tonight” that fea-tured a story about thefoster children in Rich-mond, Va., who had to car-ry all of their belongingsin a black trash bag asthey moved from home tohome. The report movedher to tears.

The story told about arestaurant owner who or-ganized a citywide suit-

case drive to help provideeach of the 288 children inRichmond’s foster careprogram with luggage.More than 500 bags werereceived.

“What really movedme was the fact that thechildren stated that theythemselves felt like ‘gar-bage’ when they carriedtheir possessions in atrash bag as they movedinto their foster homes,”Whitney said. “Having thesuitcases made them feelthat they were finally ‘athome.’”

That was all it took for

Whitney to take action.The owner of a communi-cations business, Phillip-pi-Whitney Communica-tions, she began to plan aluggage drive here.Through friends andFacebook, Whitney beganidentifying and makingcontacts. She contactedHamilton County Job andFamily Services, whichindicated that there is aneed for luggage. Theagency reached out toWarm Welcomes, a fostercare outreach program inButler County.

With as many as 1,200

children in the care on anygiven day, there is alwaysa need for assistance withthe many moves handledon an ongoing basis, notedMoira Weir, director ofHamilton County Job andFamily Services.

“We might be called toa house in the middle ofthe night, with only ashort time to gather up thechildren and move themto a safe place,” she wrotein an email. “These areheartbreaking situations,where children are re-moved from their homesand suddenly placed withsomeone they don’t know.If we can make that expe-rience a little less trau-matic by packing some ofthe things they hold dearinto a nice little suitcaseso they can carry a pieceof home with them, wewant to do that.”

Sibcy Cline Agent W.Drake Jackson, Kenwood,said that the luggage do-nation volume at his of-fice is good averagingabout five bags per day.With more than 40 bagscollected, the office hasexceeded its goal, he said.Jackson knows how chil-dren can benefit from thesuitcases.

“To me, anything wecan do to make our world abetter-place to live, espe-cially for children, it’s agreat thing,” Jacksonsaid.

Once the campaignends, University Movingand Storage has volun-teered to provide trucksto pick up the suitcases ineach of the 22 Sibcy Clinelocations and transportthem to jobs and familyservices.

FEBRUARY 11, 2015 • DELHI-PRICE HILL PRESS • A7NEWS

Every cloud has a silverlining. I was reminded of thatwhen I hung towels on the linein almost zero weather.

My husband, Frank, told methey’d freeze. My answer was,“It’s sunny outside so it will be

warm enough forthem to dry.”After a couple ofhours, I wentoutside to see ifthey were dry.Not only werethey not dry, theline had brokenand the laundrywas frozen sohard that gettingthe woodenclothespins out

was almost impossible.The silver lining? The

ground was also frozen stiff andnot muddy so the laundrystayed clean. I wound up hang-ing them on my Amish dryingrack near the wood stove.

With Lent right around thecorner, you should find somegood deals on seafood. Here’s anice recipe that really sparksup the flavor of salmon.

Oven roasted salmonwith herbs

If your salmon has a thinlayer of dark fat on it, leave itthere - it contains lots of Omega3s. Some folks like to scrape itoff for looks, but not me.

1 (2- to 2 1/2-pound) skin-less, boneless salmon fillet

Salt and freshly groundblack pepper

1/4 cup olive oil2 tablespoons freshly

squeezed lemon juice1/3 cup minced green on-

ions, white and green parts 1/3 cup minced fresh dill1/4 cup minced fresh basil 1/3 cup minced fresh pars-

ley1/2 cup dry white wineLemon wedges, for serving

Preheat the oven to 425 de-grees.

Place the salmon fillet indish and season it generouslywith salt and pepper. Whisktogether the olive oil and lemonjuice and drizzle the mixtureevenly over the salmon. Let itstand at room temperature for15 minutes.

Stir together the green on-ions and herbs. Scatter the herbmixture over the salmon filletand pat down with your hand.Pour the wine around bottom ofsalmon.

Roast the salmon for 10 to 12minutes, until almost cooked inthe center at the thickest part.The center will be firm with

just a line of uncooked salmonin the very center. Check byinserting a small knife into thecenter - it will look pearly pinkand very moist. Cover withaluminum foil and allow to restfor 10 minutes. Cut the salmoncrosswise into serving piecesand serve hot with lemon wedg-es. Serves 6.

Healing bath saltsRemember when you were a

kid and Mom had you soak sorefeet in Epsom salts?

Adding Epsom salt/magne-sium sulfate (not edible) to bathsalts helps you feel better be-cause your skin can absorb themagnesium, relaxing muscles

and nerves. Baking soda helpssoothe skin.

Especially nice with somedrops of essential oil, like laven-der, added to it.

Mix together:2 cups Epsom salts1 cup sea salt1 cup baking sodaEssential oil - about 20

drops - optPour a cup under hot run-

ning water in tub.

Readers want to knowSteaming rice for fluffy

texture:“Sometimes after my rice is

cooked, it sticks together and ishard to separate.”

Once the rice is cooked,remove pan from heat andplace a folded kitchen towel orsturdy paper towel over thepan, replace the lid and let situp to 10 minutes.

What happens here is theresidual heat continues tosteam the rice while the toweltakes up excess moisture. Ialways fluff my rice with a forkbefore removing from pan.

A8 • DELHI PRESS • FEBRUARY 11, 2015

Feb. 4 questionThe governors of Ohio and

Kentucky announced a new planto help pay for a new Brent-Spence Bridge, which includes a50 percent toll discount for dailyusers of the bridge. Is this agood idea? Why or why not?

“Charging tolls in order topay for the bridge is a goodway to go because there areprobably more people who usethe bridge ‘just passingthrough’ than live in the area.Giving a discount to locals is agreat way to take some of thesting out of it. Make the truck-ers pay the most since theirbehemoth loads take life out of

the bridge the fastest. Howev-er, the only viable way to col-lect tolls is the high speed

EZ-Pass way. Anything elsewill cause a huge increase intraffic congestion and delays.”

M.J.F.

“The current plan is good,i.e. refurbish the currentBrent Spence Bridge for I-71traffic and build a new bridgefor I-75. The federal govern-ment needs to handle its ‘re-quired’ 80 percent share viathe federal gas excise tax.Ohio and Kentucky can sharethe remaining 20 percentevenly. Tolls will help pay forthe states share. Drivers reg-istered in two Northern Ken-tucky Counties (Campbell andKenton) and Hamilton County

in Ohio should be exempt fromthe tolls or as was suggestedpay half the normal toll. Withgas prices around $2 thismight be a good time to raisethe gas tax temporarily toassist on this effort. Also sellthe naming rights for theBridge. But please no morestudies, committees or politi-cal grandstanding. Go Fig-ure!”

T.D.T.

Jan. 28 questionWhat do you think about

President Obama’s proposal topay for two years of communitycollege, effectively expanding

school to K-14 by taxing 529college savings plans?

“The president has nowwalked back his proposal totax 529 college savings plans;however, he will still be want-ing the funding from some-where else, meaning still moretaxes. I think it is just anotherfreebie offering to promotehis nanny state concept. Further, the graduation rate forcommunity colleges is not allthat great, but paid tuitionwould not necessarily improvethat. What our kids actuallyneed is school choice and im-proved instruction for K-12.”

On Dec. 7, 2014, the Eldercommunity lost its best everall-around athletic; 1968 gradRon Krechting.

At thefuneral ser-vice formersports anchorDenny Jansengave his ac-count of thethree sport“all city”everythingbeing induct-ed into thehigh schoolHall of Fame.

He described his classmate asa “transformational figure inthe lives of many.”

Kim Knoppe, the star quar-terback’s record setting widereceiver agrees, saying, “Ronwas our leader; the ultimateteam player. He made us bet-ter than we were.” These, andmany other Ron Krechtingstories helped me to under-stand “That Purple Thing.’

Ron was a year my senior.Although I didn’t know himpersonally, I sensed that histransformational qualitiesextended beyond his team-mates. Indeed, in retrospect,his controversial, but conta-gious, push-the-boundaries,I-can-do-anything, persona(he once flipped off an oppos-ing coach) left trailblazingindelible footprints in theElder Nation psyche.

At the time, our countrywas in turmoil; assassinations,civil unrest, and a divisivewar. The tear stained Vietnamletters from recent Eldergrads, read at pep rallies,made us sad … and 11 timesangry. Thankfully, Ron ful-filled our need to flip off theworld; to restore a semblanceof sanity through self-empow-erment. Using his athleticismhe showcased a rebellious,civil disobedience swaggerthat lifted our spirit to a “Pur-ple Power” frenzy. With Ronas the student body frontman, the cheering sectionbecame the star of the show;which in turn, made the teambetter than it was.

From this Ron Krechtingera emerged the now famous“Pit” identity. Initiated byardent Beatle fan Tim Taylor,‘69, the cheering section

changed the lyrics of theiranti-Vietnam Yellow Sub-marine song, and sang, “Weall live in a Purple PantherPit!” “The Pit” symbolized thesong’s safe haven home –where we lived ‘a life of ease.’Where we became world beat-ers by licking our emotionalwounds; confidently saying,“We’re better than you, andyou should be like us!”…wh-ere we lived peacefully - inour very own “perfect” world.

The story that Ron scriptedis a part of our history – andour identity. It’s been dubbedthe “Elder Experience.” Itcontinues to grab attention;earning a grudging respect –while uniting and entertaininga new generation of PurpleCrazed fans.

If history is our judge, then

the context of the times mustbe our jury. Ron used his Hallof Fame acceptance speech tohumbly apologize for hisbraggadocio leadership style.Saying, “I’m sorry if I of-fended anyone,” he explainedthat he was just a scared kidwho over compensated. Un-derstandably, at the time, wewere all scared. At the time,we were in survival mode -and being humble was not anoption.

Recently, I attended my45th year Elder reunion;where together we said yetagain, “What a time. What aplace!”

Ron Krechting exemplified "Panther Pride" as a member of the Elderfootball team.

For Price Hillians (as myfather called us) beer was partof life.

In “Price Hill Saloons,” Lar-ry Schmoltz informs us thatthere were more than 225breweries in the Cincinnatiarea in the early 1800s, but notone in Price Hill. However,they weren’t far away. A smallbrewery, the Reuter and Bet-

ting Brewerywas in Sedams-ville and pro-duced less thana thousandbarrels a year.

In Fair-mount, onQuebec Ave-nue, there wasthe BeckerBrewing Co.,which pro-duced some of

the finest lagers of the time.The brewing industry contrib-uted greatly to the Cincinnatieconomy, even helping to culti-vate the cattle and hog industrywith brewing by-products usedas feed.

Jobs in the breweries weresought-after positions. Thebrewmaster, considered king ofthe brewery, was paid rom$7,500 to $15,000 per year. Com-mon laborers got $1.50 for a14-16 hour day, plus all the beerthey could drink while working.Compared to other workers,this was very good pay. Thefire chief and police chief madeabout $3,600 a year. A firemanmade $1 a day working a 24hour shift.

Beer drinking was encour-aged as a part of employment.That’s why there were tap-rooms in most breweries. Bothfiremen and policemen stoppedby the taproom while on duty.

Schmoltz, a great story tell-er, writes about a hot July daywhen seven firemen and nine

policemen were enjoying abeer in the Hudepohl Brewerytaproom on West Sixth Street.The mayor, Mayor Waldvogel,on his way home from his of-fice in City Hall, stopped in fora refreshing brew. On enteringthe taproom, he encounteredthe city’s finest and sat downwith them to enjoy his beer,asking about their families.

Because of the camaraderieWaldvogel and other city work-ers, he was nicknamed UncleEddie. His name lives on today,thanks to the west side viaductthat bares his name.

Taprooms grew in popular-ity, becoming elegant roomswith fine furniture and sportspictures on the walls. Somewere rooftop affairs with a cityview. Select customers werepermitted to use these roomsfor special occasions.

Unfortunately when prohibi-tion went into effect many ofCincinnati’s breweries went outof business. They tried produc-ing “near beer” with less than 1percent alcohol content but itwasn’t embraced by the beer-drinking community and homebrew grew in popularity.

The Hudepohl brewery sur-vived prohibition by producingnear beer and soft drinks tobecome one of the largestbreweries in the country. By1948 they were producing morethan 900,000 barrels of beerannually.

Hudepohl was the only beeron tap in many Price Hill sa-loons. Sadly, a lack of foresightcaused Hudepohl’s decline andeventual sale to Schoenling. In1987 all production was movedto the Schoenling facility andthe plant closed for good.

Diane Clark grew up in Price Hilland lives there now. Her company,Fairy Dust Ltd Inc., is on WarsawAvenue in Price Hill.

WESTWOOD — Motherof Mercy’s basketballteam is in the midst of alosing season. The Bobcatshave lost 15 games, themost since 2011. But, evenwith losses piling up, thereare still lessons to belearned — there alwaysare.

“We’re just not playingtogether,” said Mercycoach Mary Jo Huismann,nearing the end of her 43rdseason as head coach atMercy. “Coaches alwaystalk about the team gel-ling…but we haven’t beenable to play together all thetime. We have our mo-ments where we do, justnot all the time.”

Even with a lopsidedrecord, Huismann and herteam believe they’ll be atough draw in the postsea-son. Huismann admittedthat’s due to the brutalschedule the Bobcats havetraversed.

“People still aren’t go-ing to want to play us (inthe postseason),” Huis-mann said. “Our leagueand non-conferenceschedule is tough, we justplay everybody that’sgood. I hope that we cansurprise a few people.”

In addition to beingthoroughly tested, Mercyalso has pieces that can bedifficult for team’s to han-

dle. Senior guard EmmaBley can score — she aver-ages 12.2 points, 5.2 re-bounds and 3.4 assists pergame. Bley was second theteam in scoring last season(10.9 ppg). Senior guardDe’Jah Locke is a “sparkplug,” said Huismann, whowent on to say that Lockeand Bley both enjoy theroll of taking over a game.

Mercy’s also equippedwith something mostteams lack: Size. Sopho-more center Emma Dou-goud is listed as 6-foot-1and freshman center Sa-rah Leyendecker’s 6-foot-2and ranks fourth in theGGCL in rebounds per

game (6.2). But, accordingto Huismann, that sizehasn’t translated into dom-inance in the paint the wayshe would like pointing outthat Bley is the second-leading rebounder as a 5-foot-6 guard.

Mercy won its regularseason finale 62-43 overHughes on Feb. 5. Leyen-decker had 20 points 11boards and the Bobcatshope to keep that momen-tum into the postseason.

Huismann said she’s ex-cited for the future at Mer-cy. The longtime coachsaid Mercy’s freshmanand junior varsity teamshave both played well this

season. “I’m really excited (for

the future),” said Huis-mann. “It’s challenging butI enjoy working with thegirls and getting them toplay at the next level. It hasbeen a challenge, but that’swhat’s fun.”

Perhaps the biggestthing Huismann haslearned in more than fourdecades as a coach is thatno two teams are the same.

“Every team is differ-ent. Every year as soon asyou get those 12-15 kids to-gether it’s different. Youcan win with average tal-ent if they’re all workingtogether,” Huismann said.
