If you live in Trumbull County, Tuesday is the day to watch. Warren City Council will consider a resolution asking to suspend its plan to end labor and delivery at St. Joseph Warren Hospital until it meets publicly with council, county officials, clinicians, emergency responders and residents. The meetings moved up from Wednesday because of the Veterans Day holiday.

Mercy Health defended the move in a news release, saying it would centralize deliveries at St. Elizabeth Boardman Hospital, which has maternal-fetal medicine specialists and a in partnership with Akron Children's Hospital. The resolution says snow, ice, traffic and nighttime emergencies can lengthen the drive there.

About 30 milesfrom Warren to St. Elizabeth Boardman Hospital

That's the resolution's figure, with 30 to 40 minutes of driving under ordinary conditions. It says mothers in outlying parts of Trumbull County may travel more than 40 miles.

  • Caucus: 4:15 p.m. Tuesday, next to City Council Chambers
  • Full council meeting: 5 p.m. Tuesday, City Council Chambers
  • Requested by council members Greg Greathouse and Helen Rucker

Saturday, more than 50 elected officials, healthcare providers and others rallied. Dr. Amine Abdul-Aal, one of two OB-GYNs at St. Joseph Warren, called the closing "a public health emergency." Girard Mayor Mark Zuppo joined other Trumbull County communities in asking Mercy Health to reconsider.

Youngstown may have had a magic club before the International Brotherhood of Magicians even existed. The Youngstown Magic Club Ring 2 celebrated its 100th anniversary Saturday at Magic Tree Pub & Eatery in Boardman. Club historian Gary Morton says there's a debate over whether St. Louis or Youngstown had the first magic club in the country. Now that's a trick worth arguing about.
