Does not pass either  or . In terms of  there is almost no record of Himes having published anything (except for a kind of autobiographical book "Life in the Shadows of Hartford College and Campbellsville University") and no evidence of his research having made substantial impact in the field: no citations of his work, no reviews or anything else. There are some local awards such as "Unbridled Spirit" award, but it is not really an academic award and not significant enough to satisfy criterion 2 of . For  one would have to look at possible notability for his political activism. Having been a county chairman of the Republican party is not enough, especially in the view of the absence of significant news coverage, even at the local level. There is an obituary in the local newspaper, cited by Icewedge above, and  McConnell's Senate floor speech. That's not enough to pass  in my opinion, in the absence of wider state and national coverage.
