Interview of Robert Boyce
INTERVIEW OF HERB ASHER OCTOBER 27, 2003 Q. Today is October 27, 2003. My name is Marvin Zahniser and I’m Professor Emeritus of History at the Ohio State University. And I’m sitting with Professor Herb Asher, Professor Emeritus of the Department of Political Science in the seminar room of the OSU Archives Center. We are here to explore Professor Asher’s recollections of his many activities as a special assistant to the University President for Government Relations between 1983 and 1995. During those years, Professor Asher represented President Edward Jennings and President Gordon Gee. I remind the reader that the years of Edward Jennings as President were 1981 to 1990 and Gordon Gee from 1990 to 1997. Well Herb, tell us about your recruitment by Ed Jennings to serve as his Special Assistant for Government Relations. Had you, for example, worked with your predecessor Bill Napier on some issues, so that choosing you for the position seemed easy and natural? A. I hadn’t worked with Bill but I knew Bill quite well because he had been a graduate student in political science and was earning his Ph.D. in the department. I had known Ed somewhat because when he arrived on campus and faced that budget crisis, I was the Chairman of the University Senate Legislative Affairs Committee and one of the things that Ed Jennings did, was when he had that first major budget crises he really brought the faculty, the faculty leadership, the University Senate in in terms of the discussions that he was having. -

Special Ohio Report
97 Years of Legislative Reporting in Ohio SPECIAL OHIO REPORT SPECIAL REPORT 123rd General Assembly Date Published: Friday, December 08, 2000 TERM LIMITS CREATE REPEAT OF 1972 ELECTION THAT BROUGHT 43 NEW MEMBERS TO GENERAL ASSEMBLY In early January of 1961, 136 members of the Ohio House of Representatives were sworn into office. One was Bob Netzley, a petroleum products dealer out of Laura in western Ohio’s Miami County. He arrived in Columbus with an agenda in hand that was chiseled out of the bedrock of Republican Party conservatism that has, like the man, endured through nearly forty years of social experimentation, from President Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society” to - as it now stands - a President who either will show “compassionate conservatism” or one that will put some social programs in a “lock box.” Six years after Mr. Netzley arrived at the Statehouse, Troy Lee James decamped from one of Cleveland’s toughest neighborhoods to join Mr. Netzley in an Ohio House that, by 1967, had been reduced to 99 members as a result of the U.S. Supreme Court’s “one man, one vote” decision. Mr. James also had an agenda. It reflected not only traditional Democratic Party themes, but more subtle objectives that could only be achieved by personal conduct and - at times - tolerating personal humiliation. This month, Messrs. Netzley and James, the only two remaining state lawmakers from the tumultuous decade of the 1960s, will leave Columbus, having defeated all challenges through the years with the exception of term limits and the ravages that age can visit upon a body. -

Pettigrew and Justin Garnett online! See page 18 White Dog Cave, location in space, time, and history It was the early 20th century, and the Southwest artifact mining boom was in full swing. Commercial excavations in the Grand Gulch country of southeastern Utah by the such as the Wetherill brothers and other professional agencies had generated a great interest in Southwestern relics in general, especially those of the so-called Cliffdwellers, whom we now know as the ancestral Puebloans. These uncontrolled, profit driven diggings had begun to notice significant differences in the material culture within dry cave sites, with deeper digging producing not typical Cliffdweller fare, but another sort of material entirely; the stuff of an earlier people, who came to be known as the Basketmakers for their lack of a well-defined ceramic tradition. Figure 1. Pettigrew holding replica White Dog Cave atlatl equipment. In the background is Marsh Pass in northeastern Arizona. Although the Wetherill diggings had recognized the distinctiveness of this early culture, their methods, while good for amateurs, were still lacking, and the race was on for archeological institutions to locate and excavate Basketmaker sites in controlled, scientific fashion. It was this race that brought a Harvard Peabody Museum excavation team, led by Alfred Vincent Kidder (later to develop the Pecos Classification Scheme of 1919, which formalized the Basketmaker designation) and Samuel James Guernsey to the Four Corners region. -

Some ethnologists believe the Shawnee descended from the Fort Ancient people. The Shawnees were wanderers, who lived in many places in the south. They became associated closely with the Delaware in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Able fighters, the Shawnees stubbornly resisted white pressures until the Treaty of Greene Ville in 1795. At the time of the arrival of the European explorers on the shores of the North American continent, the American Indians were living in a network of highly developed cultures. Each group lived in similar housing, wore similar clothing, ate similar food, and enjoyed similar tribal life. In the geographical northeastern part of North America, the principal American Indian tribes were: Abittibi, Abenaki, Algonquin, Beothuk, Cayuga, Chippewa, Delaware, Eastern Cree, Erie, Forest Potawatomi, Huron, Iroquois, Illinois, Kickapoo, Mohicans, Maliseet, Massachusetts, Menominee, Miami, Micmac, Mississauga, Mohawk, Montagnais, Munsee, Muskekowug, Nanticoke, Narragansett, Naskapi, Neutral, Nipissing, Ojibwa, Oneida, Onondaga, Ottawa, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Peoria, Pequot, Piankashaw, Prairie Potawatomi, Sauk-Fox, Seneca, Susquehanna, Swamp-Cree, Tuscarora, Winnebago, and Wyandot. -

Redistricting 101: Why do we redraw districts? • Every ten years the US Census is conducted to measure population changes. • The US Supreme Court has said all legislative districts should have roughly the same population so that everyone’s vote counts equally. This is commonly referred to as “one person, one vote.” • In the year following the Census, districts are redrawn to account for people moving into or out of an area and adjusted so that districts again have equal population and, for US House districts, may change depending on the number of districts Ohio is entitled to have. • While the total number of state general assembly districts is fixed -- 99 Ohio House and 33 Ohio Senate districts -- the number of US House districts allocated to each state may change follow- ing the US Census depending on that state’s proportion of the total US population. For example, following the 2010 Census, Ohio lost two US House seats, going from 18 US House seats in 2002-2012 to 16 seats in 2012-2022. -
