Turnpike name bill targets Shocknessy legacy
Ohio lawmaker Rep. Ronald Weyandt proposed naming the toll road after James Shocknessy citing his “administrative ability” and bond payments. Weyandt said he has not met Shocknessy but lauded the Turnpike Commission chair for steering the toll road to strong financial health. The proposal surfaced during a skeleton legislative session alongside other bills and resolutions.

Yearbook pickup and political moves in Ohio
Copies of the 1972 Athens High School yearbook can be picked up at 62 Franklin Avenue, with paid receipts required. In the Ohio legislature, Stark County Republican leaders chose Richard Reichel to fill a vacancy, while Senate leaders expect action on the Ga lion seat contest by late March. Rep Batchelder proposed protecting reporters from disclosing sources, with a voter referendum planned for 1974. Other bills included welfare increases, license fee boosts, and a proposed equal rights amendment debate.
