A group of local business leaders say, thanks in large part to the actions of the local community, the long talked about steel mill project for Haverhill has made significant steps in recently toward becoming a reality. The local group of investors led by Andy Glockner and Jeff Albrecht have contributed their own personal money as part of what they consider an investment in not only the project, but in the community as a whole. “Many of us do this not because of the return that we can make, but out of a love for our community,” Albrecht said. “It’s this kind of selflessness and care for the greater good that made this group first sit down together and discuss what they can do to help Southern Ohio. Instead of waiting for Columbus to make things happen, this group has taken the initiative to not leave things to chance and hope, but instead to devise a well thought through strategy for recov- ery: Front and center in this being the proposed steel mill.” Meeting almost weekly, the group has debated a variety of different business propositions in different industries for Portsmouth and the surrounding areas and has moved some of those ideas forward. Talk at the meetings, however, almost always comes back to the proposed steel mill and the opportunity to bring high value added, sustainable in- dustry back to Scioto County. “The impact that the successful completion of these proj- ects will have on our community cannot be understated,” Glockner said. “The opportunity to bring new manufactur- ing that can create thousands of new jobs simply can’t be Dr. Tracy and Rhonda Murray (far right) with Mark and Virgie Hunter and Murray’s office staff were on hand Monday for missed, and we’d be hugely disappointed if we didn’t do the presentation of a check for $3,301 from Murray and his staff to the Steven A.

COLUMBUS — Former Ohio State football star Jim Stillwagon is suspected of shooting at a pickup truck on a highway ramp and later striking the driver with a handgun, causing it to fire a bullet that grazed the man’s head, after a road rage incident that spanned about 14 miles, police said Monday. The college Hall of Famer, a middle guard who helped the Buckeyes to a national championship in 1968, was jailed on a felonious assault charge and had bond set at $350,000 in municipal court in Delaware, north of Columbus. Court records didn’t list an attorney for the 63-year-old Stillwagon. A phone message was left Monday at his home in suburban Columbus. The Sunday afternoon altercation between the truck driv- er and Stillwagon, who was on a motorcycle, might have started when one driver cut off the other, police said.
