Ohio Governor Addresses Gun Violence; Cleveland Public Library Anniversary; Rocky Colavito

  Ohio Governor Mike DeWine is scheduled to roll out his ideas for dealing with gun violence after the mass shooting that killed 9 in Dayton Sunday morning.  The shooting happened less than 24 hours after a mass shooting in El Paso, Texas where the death toll now stands at 22.  The cries for action have grown louder. Will action be taken? Andy Chow of our Statehouse News Bureau is with the governor.  We'll begin the show learning about the Cleveland Public Library's collaboration with Ideastream, encouraging Clevelanders to tell their own stories. It's part of the library's 150th anniversary celebration.   And Dan Poletta introduces us to the author of "Rocky Colavito-Cleveland's Iconic Slugger."
