OHS swim team captures SWBL trophy
www.oakwoodregister.com OHS swim team captures SWBL trophy Often, the words “Some things never change” mean something negative. For the Oakwood High School swimming and diving team, that’s a positive statement. The girl’s team won their eighth consecutive league championship in the Southwestern Buckeye League, once again dominating the competition, racking up 234 points to 100 for runner-up and archrival Bellbrook. The boy’s team swam to their fifth consecutive championship beating runnerup Bellbrook 208-111.

Police nab two burglary suspects The Oakwood Public Safety Department has made an arrest in the recent rash of evening residential burglaries occurring in the northern part of the city. On Wednesday evening at approximately 8:48 p.m., an Oakwood officer on patrol along Oakwood Avenue observed a white male subject walking northbound on Oakwood Avenue approaching Irving Avenue. The officer attempted to speak to the subject who kept walking and went to the Sunoco Store at Brown and Irving Avenues. Upon making contact with the subject, identified as Nichols S. Jenkins, W/M (5/5/1981) and running a computer check it was discovered that Jenkins was wanted on a warrant for bad checks out of Sugarcreek Township. While attempting to verify the warrant, the subject attempted to flee from the officer. A foot pursuit ensued followed by a physical altercation. At this time Jenkins was taken into cus- tody on the warrant and for resisting arrest. The subject had in his possession articles of property that were later identified as having just been stolen in a burglary on Dixon Avenue in Oakwood. Nicholas Jenkins did confess to several other recent burglaries and agreed to show officers the locations of these crimes. Nicholas Jenkins, will have an initial arraignment in Oakwood Municipal Court today on the misdemeanor charge of resisting arrest. Jenkins is currently being held in the Montgomery County Jail on the warrant and misdemeanor charge related to his arrest. Upon completion of the investigation, this case will be presented to the Montgomery County Prosecutors Office for additional charges related to the burglaries. In another unrelated incident occurring on Feb. 9, 2010, at approximately 1:45 p.m., Oakwood Officers responded to Dorothy Lane Market on the report of a W/M entering vehicles. Subsequently officers located, chased and apprehended Ronnie E. Walters W/M (4/19/1967). Walters had an XM radio and cord in his possession. This property was later traced to its owner who reported it stolen. Several other cars were entered by Walters according to witnesses. Walters was charged by Oakwood public safety officers with one count of Receiving Stolen Property and one count of Attempted Theft. Walters was arraigned before Oakwood Judge Robert Deddens. He is currently in the Montgomery County Jail. These two arrests should have an impact on recent criminal activity; however, residents are still being asked to remain alert to suspicious persons and activity they observe and to immediately call the Oakwood Public Safety Department at 298-2122 or by calling 911. 2 Jeff Liston named Super Lawyer Jefferson E.

According to Assistant City Manager Jay Weiskircher, the gas lines and water lines are already in place, and most of the sewers have been installed by the developers, the Versant Group. We just need Old Man Winter to brush away his unwieldy snow deposit to allow the construction to churn to another start. We’ll keep you posted.

The Shrove Tuesday celebration at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, that’s what and the whole community is invited. On Tuesday, Feb. 16, St. Paul’s will celebrate Mardi Gras with Jazz Vespers at 5:45 p.m. in the church at 33 W. Dixon Avenue. In true New Orleans Mardi Gras style, the prayers and readings of the traditional Evening Prayer service will be enlivened by jazz spirituals. Following the service, the congregation will sing a rousing chorus of “When the Saints Go Marching In” as all go marching into the Parish Hall for the traditional Pancake Supper (with St. Paul’s own deli- cious additions of sausage and curried fruit). The celebration and supper are free, but a free-will offering supports St. Paul’s annual Youth Mission Trip, an outreach project that parish teens, their friends, and their mentors have carried out for nine years. The whole community is welcome to join in the celebration and supper. Please call St. Paul’s at 293-1154 to RSVP, so we’ll know how much food to prepare. Fasting rules are not so strict today, but fortunately the Shrove Tuesday celebrations continue. St. Paul’s will also welcome Lent with Ash Wednesday services on Feb. 17: Holy Eucharist with the Imposition of Ashes at 9:15 a.m. and 12:15 p.m. in the Chapel of the Holy Spirit, and evening prayer with Imposition of Ashes at 6 p.m. in the Sanctuary.

Tickets may be purchased at www.daytonoperaball. com. ----------------------------------Friday evening was a dinnerand-theater-night-on-the-town! And the two gals felt just as festive as if they’d been on Times Square! Dinner was at one of north of Dayton’s long time favorites - the Buckhorn on Meeker Road. The place-was-packed but when the gals explained they had to be at the Dayton Playhouse by eight and it was at least twenty minutes away their waitress really hustled. The ribs were as wonderful as they’d remembered…and the ‘décor’ just as appealing. The parking lot at the Playhouse was packed. “I’m told it’s a sell-out tonight,” said Weezie McGinnis. She’d gotten the tickets through her son Carlo who’s wife Pam McGinnis was one of the ‘stars’! The play was ‘URINE-TOWN, The Musical’. “It played at Wright State several years ago,” said Burt & Alice Saidel. “We also saw it in New York a while ago…and this production is better!” Michael Taint played ‘Officer Lockstock’ who was the spokesman between the ‘play-and-theaudience.’ “Yes, he broke the fourth wall,” we heard some theatre-knowledgeable attendee say. “What’s that mean?” asked Weezie. “It means the audience is part of the production.” (I guess that’s what she was saying.) And her own Mother would not have recognized Pam McGinnis. Pam’s face was smeared with dirt, as were her ragged clothes, and she carried a filthy ‘plumber’s toilet brush’ that she used to clean her nails, brush her hair, and swat fellow actors. In the opening scene the ‘Urine-town’ street-bum-citizens were lined-up outside the ‘public toilet facilities’ waiting to pay the fee for permission to use same. The villain is ‘Caldwell Cladwell’, Charles Larkowski, who owns these public facilities. His daughter, who’s just graduated from the best-mostexpensive-college in America, is ‘Hope Cladwell’ played by Kelsey Hopkins and her garden-partyfrock is in sharp contrast to the ‘Urinetown-street-people. The choreography by Stacy Gear would rival any NYC production. Likewise the ‘directing’ and ‘producing’ of Doug Lloyd & Chris Harmon. Angel Price, James Roselli, Jamie McQuinn, David Williamson, Sam Downs, Nora Coyle, Lynn Kesson, Anthony Fende, Melissa Miller, Michael Stockstill, Nathaniel Leeson, Adam Wyss, Nick Boyer, Jordan DuVall, Gregory Wunderlin, Megan Grabiel, and the Office Staff/Cops were Amber Le Valley, Susanne Payne, Maranda Rossi, Edward Sevallano, and Megan Vander Kolk.

The first Air Camp will guide students through an intensive week of STEM learning via hands-on exercises and exploration of the area’s major aviation sites. The University of Dayton campus will serve as the host facility, providing room and board and meeting space. Sponsors include The University of Dayton, Sinclair Community College, Wright State University, The Engineering and Science Foundation, The Frank M. Tait Foundation, The Dayton Foundation, The Thomas B. Fordham Institute, and The Turner Foundation. Air Camp will give students practical learning experiences in a full range of aviation disciplines, from aircraft design, testing, operations and maintenance to actual flying through Sinclair Community College’s aviation school, encompassing flight-simulator training, flight planning and flying as a copilot. Students will discover the history of flight at Wright Brothers heritage sites and learn the latest advances in aviation technology through behind-the-scenes tours at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the Air Force Research Laboratory, as well as the Science on a Sphere exhibit at the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery and the National Museum of the United States Air Force. The week will culminate as student teams plan an exciting humanitarian air mission. “Air Camp is intended to inspire students to discover the possibilities of science, technology, engineering and math in the context of aviation, during a week that will be full of adventure and fun,” explained Thomas Lasley, Dean, University of Dayton, School of Education and Allied Professions, and Executive Director, EDvention. “Our hope is that Air Camp will attract students from all over the U.S., as we expand our schedule in years to come.” Air Camp plans to offer more camps in the summer of 2011. The inaugural Air Camp will take place July 18-23, 2010, for 40 students, who will be chosen by a competitive application process. Applications for 2010 are available online at www.AirCampUSA.com and may be submitted through April 15. Only students entering the seventh, eighth or ninth grades in the fall of 2010 may apply. Tuition, which includes room and board, is $900, with a limited number of need-based scholarships available. The 40 students selected for the first Air Camp will be notified May 1. Hosted in the Dayton region – the birthplace of aviation – Air Camp is a one-week adventure in the wonders of flight and the science, technology, engineering and math of aviation, designed to inspire middle-school students to “soar into the future.” For further information, visit www.AirCampUSA. com. 10 U of M Men’s Glee Club to perform Feb. 20 The University of Michigan Men’s Glee Club, under the direction of Dr. Paul Rardin, will be performing a concert at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 125 N.

Dayton had an easy time compared with the East coast, but we enjoyed a pair of snowbound days which were simply beautiful. Cozy and warm we watched Mother Nature trim trees and remind us that we are only a part of her grand scheme. Part of that scheme was my personal escape from Philadelphia and its nearly three feet of snow. I saw The Vertical Hour at the Loft Theatre and then departed very early for New York and on to Philadelphia. Fortunately, the weather forecasts caused Haverford College to cancel a meeting and I was able to exit from nearly snow-less New York with no problem. During that time, I reflected on The Vertical Hour and the Human Race Theatre Company. I attended the play to see yet another acting tour de force by Bruce Cromer and the same excellence from Marsha Hanna as director. I expected quality throughout the play. It was there in every aspect. The Vertical Hour is a literary masterwork by David Hare. He created characters and used literary devices to make them tell their stories brilliantly. The obscure soliloquy by Bruce to begin the play was clarified in minute details carefully spilled out before the audience. All the characters were interrelated. All the situations were justified. The human tragedy of intentional dysfunction was made understandable and acceptable. The three main characters Bruce Cromer, Kathy McCafferty and Todd Lawson - each created a stage persona of both physical beauty and dramatic veracity. There were two smaller parts which were definitely not minor. Young actors Trevor Day and WSU senior Jasmine Batchelor gave their pivotal contributions to the drama with perfection. The run of the play is over. Sorry to fail my readers but the time was out of joint. My advice is never to miss a play with any of the above mentioned involved. It will be a great experience. Dayton Ballet’s Dracula Dayton Ballet owns a valuable property. The late Stuart Sebastian, renowned dancer, choreographer and Dayton Ballet director, created Dracula at the end of his tenure in Dayton and at the end of his life. Stuart loved the ballet and often stretched its scope to include humor, drama and the occult. In creating Dracula, he made monsters that you had to love. While there are on-stage postures of horror and loud piercing screams, the dancers and their characters never descended into dreadfulness. All the good guys did what was expected of them. some succumbed to the vampires bite – well, they probably needed to die. Dayton Ballet has great dancers. In this truncated season, they needed more dancing. But, the bottom line requires the addition of popular story ballets and they do them so well. In the performance we saw ballet greats Justin Koertgen, Christy Forehand, Halliet Slack and Keenan McLaren. They were joined by comparative newcomers: Rob Morrow, Dillon Anthony, Daniel Karasik and Case Bodamer. Case’s athletic pas as the stricken Renfield nearly stopped the show. As Dracula’s wives, Gabrielle Sharp, Audrey Johnson and Erica Lehman tried to look horrible and menacing, but these beautiful young women remained beautiful. I think that we’ve had enough of Dracula with three visits in six years. I shed no tears in saying goodbye. “Fangs” for the memories. Dayton Playhouse’s Urinetown There is the art of comedy. The next level is parody. It surpasses comedy in its combination of cleverness and control of the audiences’ reactions and thought processes. So much for academia – now comes the fun. By its own admission, Urinetown is a terrible name for a musical. I was certain that it would be a terrible musical, as well. Wrong on all counts! The Dayton Playhouse mounted a stunning production of Urinetown by assembling its team of talented regional theater regulars. Doug Lloyd, Chris Harmon, Stacy Gear and Ron Kindell became director, set designer, choreographer and music director with a barrage of great ideas. The cast was seamless. The layers of parody included satire, lampooning and caricature, all done with perfect timing and great aplomb. A deep and meaningful statement of social responsibility, ecological accountability and population control was larded with overt greed and even love. Such panoply of great issues can only be presented with success by over-thetop parody. Perhaps Gulliver’s Travels was the model. The idea, taxing urination to combat a universal drought, appeared to author Greg Kotis when he was cash impoverished in Paris. He had to make the choice between paying for a pissoire or buying dinner. Indeed, necessity is the mother of invention.D o n ’ t worry about the plot. You have until February 21st to dive right into its web at Dayton Playhouse. You will be seduced by great performances by Pam McGinnis and Chuck Larkowski.

Piano Lessons tile dramatic duo since Lunt and Fontaine. OK, that is my attempt at parody. Seriously, there were performances surpassing expectations and even imagination. As the romantic leads, darling WSU junior Kelsey Hopkins and handsome James Roselli, used every artifice to perfection. Angelé Price’s comedic magic made her “baby doll” character the conscience of the play. As narrator and police brutality advocate, Michael Taint sang and acted well but never hit anyone. Lawyer Dave Williamson was the first to be banished to Urinetown. Perhaps that’s the best lawyer joke?

The score was close throughout the game - the Jacks were down 7-10 at the quarter, down 16-18 at the half, up 30-27 at the third quarter, and tied 50-50 after regulation. With 38 seconds remaining in the game, Bellbrook was starting to pull away 49-43, but the Jacks wouldn’t let it happen. Dan Manzaillo was fouled and reduced the deficit to 49-46 at the charity stripe. Scott Feldmiller, Dan Manzanillo reduced the deficit to 49-46 from the charity stripe. Photos by Leon Chuck, www.PressboxPhoto.com who became a scoring machine in the fourth quarter, bucketed a trey from the corner to reduce the deficit to 50-49 with less than 10 seconds remaining. The Oakwood defense tied up the Bellbrook point guard and possession went to Oakwood with 4.6 seconds remaining. Ryan McFarland drew a foul in the act of shooting with 1.2 sec remaining. Regulation ended after Ryan coolly tied the game 50-50 after missing the front end. After more instructions from Coach Stone, Oakwood jumped to a 55-52 lead in overtime from Feldmillers trey and McFarland’s jump shot. Ryan Dempsey increased the score to 56-53 after being fouled during shooting inside the paint. With 17 seconds remaining in overtime, the score was 60-55 after McFarland’s many visits to the charity stripe. At 3.2 sec, Kevin Knoth knocked down his foul shot where the score of 61-58 stayed as time expired to the roaring delight of Oakwood fans. The top three scorers for Oakwood were Feldmiller, McFarland, and Manzanillo with 20, 16 and seven points respectively. The team bench is locked in arms and the Oakwood crowd is tense as Ryan McFarland attempts to tie the score 50-50 or go ahead to win at the charity stripe.
