  • History of Sight Saving a Past to Honor… a Future to Mold
    Prevent Blindness, Ohio Affiliate Celebrates A Proud History of Sight Saving A Past to Honor… A Future to Mold In 1908, Dr. Park Lewis, a noted ophthalmologist from Buffalo, New York and Edith Holt, daughter of the New York publisher, decided to take action to fight preventable blindness in the United States. Through the help of volunteers, they established the first volunteer-driven eye health and safety organization, the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness. Ohio volunteers, Dr. William Synder (Ophthalmologist-Toledo), Robert Irwin (American Association of Workers for the Blind-Cleveland), Jacob Shawan (Columbus Public Schools), and E.M. DePeltquestagny (American Nurses Association-Massillon) joined notables such as William H. Taft, Theodore Roosevelt and Helen Keller in composing the first nationwide board of Directors of the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness. This organization also had the distinction of being the second national health organization formed, after the American Red Cross. Through the hard work and dedication of this early group of volunteers, the National Society successfully led legislation that virtually eliminated ophthalmia neonatorum, then a leading cause of blindness in infants. The organization later created the first volunteer-run preschool vision screening program in the United States. In the 1940’s, the National Society (now known as Prevent Blindness America) began expanding vision screening training in different areas of the country and at the same time enlisted the support of Delta Gamma Fraternity. As part of this period of expansion, the Ohio Affiliate of Prevent Blindness (PBO) was founded in 1957. On April 11, 1958, Mrs.

  • 2006 Primary Election Results
    The Hannah Report Special Election Edition May 3, 2006 2006 Primary Election Results Party caucuses held a few surprises Tuesday. There were a number of anticipated blow-outs and several nail-biters, including a seven-way Democratic primary in the 10th House District that was still too close to call at end of business Wednesday. Results remain officially "unofficial" in all races and do not reflect provisional voting. Absentee ballots were also out in Cuyahoga County, where the election board was forced to count votes by hand in the 10th District and other races. A disclaimer at the secretary of state's website notes that results will be final 81 days after the date on which county boards of elections have all completed official canvases, which must be no later than May 23, 2006. Statewide Races U.S. Rep. Ted Strickland (D-Ohio) easily overcame his opponent to win the Democratic caucus for governor by a factor of four. Bryan Flannery was unable to capitalize on allegations concerning a former Strickland staffer arrested for public indecency. On the Republican side, Secretary of State Ken Blackwell banked on a well-organized and financially generous grassroots effort to pass Attorney General Jim Petro for the gubernatorial nomination. In the attorney general campaign, Sen. Tim Grendell (R-Chesterland) acknowledged the inevitability of former attorney general Betty Montgomery's bid for another Republican nomination to her old job, conceding early Tuesday to the sitting auditor. Among Democrats, former Cleveland law director Subodh Chandra won numerous newspaper endorsements -- though not his party's -- for attorney general, which was instead claimed by leading workers' comp critic Sen.
