<strong>NOC</strong> <strong>direc<strong>to</strong>r</strong><br />
<strong>resigns</strong>; center’s<br />
<strong>hours</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> <strong>cut</strong><br />
By DAN ROBINSON<br />
<strong>Times</strong> staff writer<br />
The Neighborhood Opportunity<br />
Center Board of<br />
Direc<strong>to</strong>rs accepted the resignation<br />
of its <strong>direc<strong>to</strong>r</strong> this<br />
week.<br />
B.J. Hall had led the center<br />
for more than six years as a<br />
volunteer. Board President<br />
Brian Heath said Wednesday<br />
Hall had submitted a letter of<br />
resignation <strong>to</strong> the board on<br />
June 22. In July, he, along<br />
with two other board mem<strong>be</strong>rs,<br />
Dawn Wilson and Judy<br />
Scott, were charged with two<br />
counts of theft.<br />
Their trials are set for<br />
January in Hardin County<br />
Common Pleas Court.<br />
Hall’s last day at the center<br />
is scheduled for Oct. 12. An<br />
appreciation gathering in his<br />
honor will take place that day<br />
at 3 p.m. at the center on<br />
Walnut Street in Ken<strong>to</strong>n.<br />
Applications for a new <strong>direc<strong>to</strong>r</strong><br />
will <strong>be</strong> received after Oct. 1,<br />
said Heath. In the time <strong>be</strong>fore<br />
a <strong>direc<strong>to</strong>r</strong> is found, said<br />
Heath, board mem<strong>be</strong>rs will fill<br />
the <strong>direc<strong>to</strong>r</strong>’s duties.<br />
Heath said the West Ohio<br />
Food Bank will <strong>be</strong> guiding the<br />
board in its search for a <strong>direc<strong>to</strong>r</strong>.<br />
Scott will play a part in the<br />
search for a new <strong>direc<strong>to</strong>r</strong> and<br />
work at the center, while<br />
Wilson will continue as a<br />
board mem<strong>be</strong>r, said Heath,<br />
but will not <strong>be</strong> working as a<br />
volunteer for the organization.<br />
Due <strong>to</strong> financial concerns<br />
at the center, he said, the<br />
board has decided changes in<br />
operating <strong>hours</strong> for the center<br />
were necessary. Starting Oct.<br />
15, said Heath, the center will<br />
<strong>be</strong> open 4-6 p.m. Monday,<br />
Wednesday and Friday.<br />
“The board concluded the<br />
change in <strong>hours</strong> will help<br />
lower overhead and costs<br />
incurred in the operation (of)<br />
the center at a time of diminishing<br />
resources and would<br />
like <strong>to</strong> thank our committed<br />
and gracious donors for the<br />
continued concern, support<br />
and donations <strong>to</strong> our mission,”<br />
said Heath in a written<br />
statement.<br />
The Christmas season is a<br />
busy time for the center,<br />
Heath noted. Staff will <strong>be</strong>gin<br />
accepting forms for sign-up for<br />
food boxes. Because of funding<br />
restrictions, he said, those<br />
boxes may not <strong>be</strong> as large as<br />
they have <strong>be</strong>en in the past.<br />
“We would like <strong>to</strong> give<br />
everyone something,” said<br />
Heath, “but we may not <strong>be</strong> as<br />
generous with the boxes.”<br />
The board will review its<br />
<strong>hours</strong> and services as they are<br />
impacted by finances in making<br />
a determination if further<br />
changes are necessary or<br />
increases in services are warranted,<br />
said Heath.<br />
The need for assistance<br />
continues <strong>to</strong> grow at the center,<br />
said Heath. Reports for<br />
August indicate a <strong>to</strong>tal of<br />
1,074 people were served.<br />
That represents 340 households,<br />
according <strong>to</strong> the report.<br />
Kasich signs 5<br />
bills shoring up<br />
public pensions<br />
By ANN SANNER<br />
Associated Press<br />
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) —<br />
Gov. John Kasich signed a<br />
package of bills Wednesday<br />
aimed at shoring up Ohio’s five<br />
public pension funds and<br />
praised the rare bipartisanship<br />
that secured their passage.<br />
“We’ve got plenty of time <strong>to</strong><br />
fight on lots of stuff,” said<br />
Kasich, a Republican. “But<br />
there are some absolutely critical<br />
things that have <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> done<br />
<strong>to</strong> make sure that people are<br />
going <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> in good shape.”<br />
The legislation makes<br />
changes <strong>to</strong> funds covering<br />
some 1.8 million retirees,<br />
future retirees and their families.<br />
They include increases <strong>to</strong><br />
some premiums, reduced payouts<br />
and tighter retirement eligibility<br />
requirements for funds<br />
covering teachers, police,<br />
troopers and other public<br />
workers.<br />
The bills cleared the GOPcontrolled<br />
Legislature two<br />
weeks ago with unanimous<br />
votes on all but one measure.<br />
The package of bills is aimed<br />
at keeping the funds solvent.<br />
The affected funds are: Ohio<br />
Public Employee Retirement<br />
System, State Teachers<br />
Retirement System, School<br />
Employees Retirement System,<br />
Ohio Highway Patrol<br />
Retirement System and the<br />
Ohio Police and Fire Pension<br />
Fund.<br />
One man was arrested and<br />
four other individuals face<br />
charges following the exe<strong>cut</strong>ion<br />
of a search warrant<br />
Wednesday in Ken<strong>to</strong>n.<br />
According <strong>to</strong> information<br />
from the Hardin County<br />
Sheriff’s Office, the Hardin<br />
County Crime Task Force<br />
was assisted by the Hardin<br />
County Special Response<br />
Team, Ken<strong>to</strong>n Police<br />
Department and the sheriff’s<br />
Republican Senate<br />
President Tom Niehaus and<br />
Senate Democratic Leader Eric<br />
Kearney co-sponsored the bills.<br />
The measures will take<br />
effect Jan. 7. Employee contribution<br />
rates would <strong>be</strong> gradually<br />
increased by increments<br />
from 10 percent of salary <strong>to</strong><br />
12.25 percent for those <strong>be</strong>longing<br />
<strong>to</strong> the Ohio Police and Fire<br />
Pension Fund, and from 10<br />
percent <strong>to</strong> 14 percent for mem<strong>be</strong>rs<br />
of the State Teachers<br />
Retirement System.<br />
Mem<strong>be</strong>rs of OPERS and the<br />
School Employees Retirement<br />
System would not see an<br />
increase in contributions. The<br />
Ohio Highway Patrol<br />
Retirement System board could<br />
adjust mem<strong>be</strong>r contributions<br />
from 10 percent <strong>to</strong> up <strong>to</strong> 14<br />
percent of salary.<br />
At Wednesday’s bill signing,<br />
Kasich congratulated the<br />
funds’ leaders for coming forward<br />
with what he said were<br />
“very <strong>to</strong>ugh recommendations<br />
that will get their fund settled<br />
down” for significant period of<br />
time.<br />
Kasich downplayed any<br />
notion that more legislative<br />
changes <strong>to</strong> the funds were in<br />
the near future.<br />
“In terms of more things we<br />
need <strong>to</strong> do right now, we need<br />
<strong>to</strong> take a deep breath, and,<br />
frankly, we got <strong>to</strong> congratulate<br />
the systems and the<br />
Legislature,” he said.<br />

Time is running short for<br />
some decisions which need <strong>to</strong><br />
<strong>be</strong> made if a park is <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong><br />
placed at the site of the old<br />
Hardin County jail at the corner<br />
of North Wayne and East<br />
Carrol streets in Ken<strong>to</strong>n.<br />
Last month, Ken<strong>to</strong>n First<br />
United Methodist Church<br />
Youth Pas<strong>to</strong>r David Dakin presented<br />
the county commissioners<br />
with a proposal for a small<br />
park <strong>to</strong> replace the building<br />
following its demolition. Crews<br />
expect the old jail <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> demolished<br />
sometime in Oc<strong>to</strong><strong>be</strong>r.<br />
Dakin <strong>to</strong>ld the commissioners<br />
this week he now has a <strong>be</strong>tter<br />
idea of what will <strong>be</strong> needed<br />
in order for the park <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong>come<br />
a reality and hopes <strong>to</strong> soon<br />
have a picture of how it might<br />
look. Support for the project<br />
have <strong>be</strong>en expressed by the<br />
Ken<strong>to</strong>n Tree Commission and<br />
the Health Lifestyles Coalition,<br />
who have funding available<br />
through an anti-o<strong>be</strong>sity program<br />
for young children.<br />
“This is right up their alley,”<br />
said Dakin.<br />
The amount of area needed<br />
for the playground should <strong>be</strong><br />
small, said Dakin. Most of it<br />
will <strong>be</strong> built for preschoolers<br />
and <strong>to</strong>ddlers. The other parts<br />
of the park will <strong>be</strong> used for<br />
green space in the form of trees<br />
and grass, he said.<br />
Dakin said he had <strong>be</strong>en in<br />
discussion with Ken<strong>to</strong>n Mayor<br />
Randy Manns regarding the<br />
city taking over maintenance of<br />
the new park.<br />

enforcement leaders throughout the state, of<br />
which Vermillion is a mem<strong>be</strong>r. The organization<br />
is working <strong>to</strong> raise awareness about the<br />
educational and economic <strong>be</strong>nefits of highquality<br />
pre-kindergarten, saying these children<br />
are more likely <strong>to</strong> graduate high school<br />
and less likely <strong>to</strong> commit crimes as adults.<br />

Upper Scio<strong>to</strong> Valley High School will celebrate<br />
homecoming activities this weekend<br />
starting with a crowning ceremony at 6:30 p.m.<br />
prior <strong>to</strong> the football game with Perry High<br />
School The dance is slated for 8 <strong>to</strong> 11 p.m.<br />
Saturday at the school. Mem<strong>be</strong>rs of this year’s<br />
New Leaf Landscaping and<br />
Garden Center in Ken<strong>to</strong>n has<br />
offered <strong>to</strong> provide a drawing<br />
plan <strong>to</strong> give the commissioners<br />
a <strong>be</strong>tter picture of his plans, he<br />
said.<br />
One of the issues facing the<br />
park now is the future of the<br />
asphalt, said Dakin. The portion<br />
of the paving on the western<br />
side of the lot should <strong>be</strong><br />
retained for parking, he continued.<br />
Any asphalt removed by<br />
the organization overseeing the<br />
construction of the park would<br />
result in a fiscal hurdle, said<br />
Dakin.<br />
If there needs <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> a<br />
change order <strong>be</strong>cause of the<br />
asphalt or <strong>be</strong>cause the gravel<br />
planned <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> used at the site<br />
is replaced by dirt, those<br />
changes need <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> brought<br />

Hardin County Audi<strong>to</strong>r Mike<br />
Bacon announced this week he<br />
will <strong>be</strong> retiring after 17 1/2<br />
years, but hopes <strong>to</strong> continue in<br />
the position.<br />
Bacon informed the county<br />
commissioners Tuesday he had<br />
filed a retirement application<br />
with the Ohio Public Employees<br />
Retirement System.<br />
“Due <strong>to</strong> the impending<br />
changes <strong>to</strong> the retirement system<br />
laws,” wrote Bacon, “I wish<br />
<strong>to</strong> lock in my future retirement<br />
under the current <strong>be</strong>nefit<br />
structure. Therefore I will officially<br />
retire from OPERS effective<br />
Sept. 30, 2012.<br />
Bacon also informed the<br />
commissioners it is his intention<br />
<strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> a candidate for audi<strong>to</strong>r<br />
in the 2014 primary election.<br />
Between Oct. 1, 2012 and<br />
his reelection attempt, Bacon is<br />
asking the commissioners <strong>to</strong><br />
name him acting audi<strong>to</strong>r for the<br />

Youth pas<strong>to</strong>r: Park plans take shape<br />
By DAN ROBINSON<br />
<strong>Times</strong> staff writer<br />
A Cleveland man was sentenced<br />
<strong>to</strong> nearly two years in<br />
prison after <strong>be</strong>ing found guilty<br />
of charges this week in Hardin<br />
County Common Pleas Court.<br />
According <strong>to</strong> court records<br />
from Prosecu<strong>to</strong>r Brad Bailey’s<br />
office, Ro<strong>be</strong>rt Earl Callahan,<br />
also known as Ro<strong>be</strong>rt Edward<br />
Callahan, was found guilty of<br />
one count each of breaking and<br />
entering and possession of<br />
criminal <strong>to</strong>ols. Judge William<br />
Hart sentenced Callahan <strong>to</strong> 11<br />
months for each count for a<br />
<strong>to</strong>tal of 22 months and fined<br />
him $50 per charge.<br />
In other recent cases,<br />
Joshua James Waller, 201 E.<br />
Julia St., Forest, was convicted<br />
of felonious assault and abduction.<br />
He was fined $250 and<br />
placed on community control<br />
for four years for the combined<br />
sentence. Waller is also <strong>to</strong> perform<br />
100 <strong>hours</strong> of community<br />
service.<br />
Natasha Marie Galkiewicz,<br />
420 N. Davis St., Forest, was<br />
placed on two years community<br />
control and fined $50 after she<br />
was convicted of forgery<br />
charges. She is <strong>to</strong> pay restitution<br />
of $4,070 <strong>to</strong> the two victims<br />
in the case. Galkiewicz is also <strong>to</strong><br />
pay $50 in fines for a conviction<br />
of receiving s<strong>to</strong>len property.<br />
Andrell Steffon Payne,<br />
Brooklyn, N.Y., was found<br />
guilty of two counts of identity<br />
forth soon, said Commission<br />
Brice Beaman.<br />
“The asphalt removal is not<br />
a part of this project,” said<br />
Beaman.<br />
The commissioners need <strong>to</strong><br />
determine if there will <strong>be</strong> additional<br />
expenses <strong>to</strong> the razing<br />
and removal of the building, he<br />
said.<br />
“The sooner you get the<br />
drawings <strong>to</strong> us the <strong>be</strong>tter,” said<br />
Commissioner Ron Wyss. “You<br />
can work things how you want<br />
but we need <strong>to</strong> see how we can<br />
accommodate you.”<br />
Dakin thought the drawings<br />
could <strong>be</strong> available <strong>to</strong> the county<br />
within a week.<br />
“I want <strong>to</strong> see this happen,”<br />
he said. “The more we work<br />
<strong>to</strong>gether, the quicker it will get<br />
done.”<br />

Romney says<br />
his health care<br />
law shows<br />
empathy<br />
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) —<br />
Republican presidential candidate<br />
Mitt Romney is pointing <strong>to</strong><br />
his Massachusetts health care<br />
law as evidence that he has<br />
empathy for ordinary<br />
Americans.<br />
Romney usually avoids talking<br />
about the health care law<br />
he championed as<br />
Massachusetts governor<br />
<strong>be</strong>cause President Barack<br />
Obama cites it as the basis of<br />
his own federal health care law.<br />
Republicans reject what they<br />
call “Obamacare” as a costly<br />
government takeover.<br />
Campaigning in Ohio on<br />
Wednesday, Romney <strong>to</strong>ld NBC<br />
News that he understands<br />
Americans’ lives and the challenges<br />
they face. In citing the<br />
Massachusetts health care law,<br />
he said, “Don’t forget, I got<br />
everybody in my state insured.”<br />
Li<strong>be</strong>rals tend <strong>to</strong> favor universal<br />
health care while conservatives<br />
tend <strong>to</strong> oppose it.<br />
While Romney has vowed <strong>to</strong><br />
repeal and replace Obamacare,<br />
he has not offered specifics for<br />
replacement legislation.<br />
fraud and one charge of theft.<br />
He was placed on community<br />
control for three years and fined<br />
$100 for each count. Payne is<br />
also <strong>to</strong> serve a <strong>to</strong>tal of 180<br />
<strong>hours</strong> of community service,<br />
with 90 <strong>hours</strong> come from<br />
another case against him.<br />
Travis Shane Lawrence, 308<br />
N. Detroit St., Ken<strong>to</strong>n, was<br />
found guilty of possession of<br />
heroin. He was fined $100 and<br />
given three years of community<br />
control.<br />

Obama conveniently<br />
ignores economic facts<br />
WASHINGTON -- How is it<br />
possible that Barack Obama<br />
leads Mitt Romney on who can<br />
<strong>be</strong>tter handle the economy<br />
when it's <strong>be</strong>en in decline all<br />
year<br />
Economists on both sides<br />
say this is one of the weakest<br />
recoveries since the Great<br />
Depression. New York <strong>Times</strong><br />
economic columnist Paul<br />
Krugman, one of Obama's early<br />
supporters, said, "This is still a<br />
terrible economy."<br />
The overall economy barely<br />
grew by 1.7 percent in the second<br />
quarter, down from 2 percent<br />
in the first three months of<br />
2012.<br />
Business economists have<br />
lowered their forecasts <strong>to</strong> 1.5<br />
percent or lower for the year.<br />
The Federal Reserve Board says<br />
it will keep interest rates near<br />
zero for the foreseeable future,<br />
<strong>be</strong>cause it expects the economy<br />
<strong>to</strong> remain in a weakened condition<br />
for several years <strong>to</strong> come.<br />
Most Americans do not follow<br />
the economic data that<br />
diagnoses the economy's ups<br />
and downs, but they know what<br />
their economic circumstances<br />
are. Yet political pollsters and<br />
reporters tell of interviews with<br />
people who have <strong>be</strong>en out of<br />
work for months who still say<br />
they're voting for Obama.<br />
Most get their economic<br />
news from the network news<br />
shows, but the producers of<br />
these programs <strong>be</strong>nd over backward<br />
<strong>to</strong> report as little as possible<br />
about the levels of economic<br />
deprivation that characterize<br />
Obama's presidency.<br />
Did you see the s<strong>to</strong>ry on<br />
"NBC News With Brian<br />
Williams" last week about how<br />
unemployment rose in more<br />
than half the states in August<br />
Of course not, <strong>be</strong>cause he didn't<br />
report it.<br />
Nevertheless, in the fourth<br />
insufferable year of Obama's<br />
term in office, the unemployment<br />
rate clim<strong>be</strong>d in 26 states,<br />
according <strong>to</strong> the U.S. Bureau of<br />
Labor Statistics. Five were battleground<br />
states that will probably<br />
decide this election and<br />
where Obama, improbably, is<br />
leading Romney.<br />
Unemployment was<br />
unchanged in the battlegrounds<br />
of Ohio, Virginia and in Florida,<br />
where the jobless rate nears 9<br />
percent.<br />
The BLS also reports that the<br />
num<strong>be</strong>r of working Americans<br />
shrank last month as payrolls<br />
fell in 21 states, the result of<br />
tens of millions of discouraged<br />
workers who have s<strong>to</strong>pped looking<br />
for a job and are no longer<br />
"The wife and I are thinking<br />
over our career prospects and<br />
we're suddenly open <strong>to</strong> moving<br />
<strong>to</strong> Canada."<br />
"Ah, yes, you speak of the<br />
results of the Fraser Institute's<br />
recently released 'Economic<br />
Freedom of the World: 2012<br />
Annual Report.' It shows that<br />
Canada is the fifth freest economy,<br />
whereas America has<br />
plunged <strong>to</strong> the 18th spot."<br />
"That's right. It's a real<br />
bummer <strong>to</strong> see America fall so<br />
far so fast in the rankings."<br />
"To <strong>be</strong> sure. The report says<br />
that from 1980 <strong>to</strong> 2000, the<br />
United States was generally<br />
rated the third freest economy<br />
in the world, ranking <strong>be</strong>hind<br />
only Hong Kong and<br />
Singapore. Between 2000 and<br />
2010, we fell <strong>to</strong> the 10th spot.<br />
In just one year we plunged <strong>to</strong><br />
the 18th spot!"<br />
"What are we doing wrong<br />
<strong>to</strong> fall <strong>to</strong> 18th on the list"<br />
"Well, the Fraser Institute<br />
says that the 'corners<strong>to</strong>nes of<br />
economic freedom are personal<br />
choice, voluntary exchange,<br />
freedom <strong>to</strong> compete, and security<br />
of privately owned property.'<br />
It uses 42 variables <strong>to</strong><br />
measure economic freedom in<br />
five key areas: the size of government,<br />
legal systems and<br />
property rights, sound money,<br />
freedom <strong>to</strong> trade internationally,<br />
and regulation. America<br />
has lost ground in all five."<br />
"But why have we lost<br />
ground so fast"<br />
"The Fraser report say it's<br />
difficult <strong>to</strong> point <strong>to</strong> the 'specific<br />
causal fac<strong>to</strong>rs of the<br />
decline,' but does offer a few<br />
possibilities, such as abuse of<br />
eminent domain, government<br />
bailouts, and restrictions<br />
brought about by the war on<br />
terror. In a nutshell, as the<br />
government does more and<br />
Donald<br />
Lambro<br />
Syndicated<br />
columnist<br />
<strong>to</strong>m purcell<br />
regulates more, the less free<br />
the economy <strong>be</strong>comes. And<br />
our government has grown<br />
massively in recent years."<br />
"It has"<br />
"Absolutely. Arthur Brooks,<br />
president of the American<br />
Enterprise Institute, wrote in<br />
The Wall Street Journal that<br />
America is no longer at risk of<br />
<strong>be</strong>coming a European-style<br />
big-government social democracy<br />
- <strong>be</strong>cause we already are<br />
one."<br />
"We are!"<br />
"'From the progressivity of<br />
our tax code, <strong>to</strong> the percentage<br />
of GDP devoted <strong>to</strong> government,<br />
<strong>to</strong> the extent of the regula<strong>to</strong>ry<br />
burden on business, most of<br />
Europe's got nothing on us,'<br />
he wrote. In 1938, the height<br />
of the Great Depression, <strong>to</strong>tal<br />
government spending - federal,<br />
state, local -was 15 percent<br />
of GDP. In 2010, it was 36 percent<br />
of GDP. And as the government<br />
grows, economic freedoms<br />
contract."<br />
"That's not good when you<br />
consider economic freedom is<br />
the key <strong>to</strong> greater prosperity<br />
for all Americans."<br />
"That is true, <strong>to</strong>o. The<br />
Fraser Institute finds that<br />
nations that are economically<br />
free outperform nonfree<br />
nations in indica<strong>to</strong>rs of well<strong>be</strong>ing.<br />
Per-capita GDP is higher,<br />
poverty is lower, life<br />
counted.<br />
Yet there was President<br />
Obama telling CBS's "60<br />
Minutes" on Sunday that the<br />
economy was moving in the<br />
right direction. "We're moving<br />
forward," he repeatedly says on<br />
the campaign trail.<br />
But by virtually every major<br />
economic measurement, we've<br />
<strong>be</strong>en falling <strong>be</strong>hind over the<br />
past four years, not moving forward.<br />
For example, did you see the<br />
s<strong>to</strong>ry on the nightly news about<br />
how median income has fallen<br />
<strong>be</strong>tween 2010 and 2011 You<br />
didn't <strong>be</strong>cause it wasn't reported.<br />
The U.S. Census Bureau<br />
reported on Sept. 12 that real<br />
median household income last<br />
year was $50,054, "a 1.5 percent<br />
decline from the 2010<br />
median and the second conse<strong>cut</strong>ive<br />
annual drop."<br />
The data-gathering agency<br />
also reported that "median family<br />
household income declined<br />
by 1.7 percent in real terms"<br />
last year, and that median<br />
household income was 8.1 percent<br />
lower than in 2007, the<br />
year <strong>be</strong>fore the economy fell in<strong>to</strong><br />
a deep recession.<br />
Moreover, it further reported<br />
that the nation's official poverty<br />
rate was a record 15 percent in<br />
2011, with 46.2 million people<br />
in poverty.<br />
This doesn't sound like our<br />
economy is moving forward, as<br />
the president insists in his campaign<br />
speeches and TV ads.<br />
Poverty is growing, incomes<br />
are falling, the economy's<br />
growth is slowing <strong>to</strong> a snail's<br />
pace, joblessness is climbing in<br />
more than half the country --<br />
and the president is talking <strong>to</strong><br />
us in Orwellian doublespeak.<br />
Or, as George Orwell defines<br />
this type of communication in<br />
his classic novel "1984," doublethink:<br />
"The power of holding two<br />
contradic<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>be</strong>liefs in one's<br />
mind simultaneously, and<br />
accepting both of them ... To tell<br />
deli<strong>be</strong>rate lies while genuinely<br />
<strong>be</strong>lieving in them, <strong>to</strong> forget any<br />
fact that has <strong>be</strong>come inconvenient,<br />
and then, when it <strong>be</strong>comes<br />
necessary again, <strong>to</strong> draw it back<br />
from oblivion for just as long as<br />
it is needed, <strong>to</strong> deny the existence<br />
of objective reality and all<br />
the while <strong>to</strong> take account of the<br />
reality which one denies."<br />
Thus, Obama conveniently<br />
puts objective reality out of his<br />
mind, even when it's reported<br />
by his administration. In his<br />
mind, backward <strong>be</strong>comes forward,<br />
weakness <strong>be</strong>comes getting<br />
stronger, decline <strong>be</strong>comes<br />
"moving in the right direction."<br />
And just as in Orwell's world,<br />
millions are ready <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong>lieve dishonest<br />
double-speak that would<br />
make a carnival barker blush.<br />
But <strong>be</strong>fore this can happen,<br />
a majority of the elec<strong>to</strong>rate has<br />
<strong>to</strong> completely forget what it was<br />
like <strong>be</strong>fore Obama. A few examples:<br />
-- The average national<br />
unemployment rate in the previous<br />
administration was 5.2<br />
percent. The average in<br />
Obama's presidency is 9 percent.<br />
-- The budget deficit <strong>to</strong>taled<br />
$1.18 trillion over the last four<br />
years of George W. Bush's presidency.<br />
Obama's four deficits<br />
have added $5 trillion <strong>to</strong> the<br />
national debt.<br />
-- When Obama was sworn<br />
in<strong>to</strong> office on Inauguration Day<br />
in 2009, regular gas was selling<br />
for $1.90 a gallon. Today, under<br />
Obama's energy policies, it is<br />
approaching $4 a gallon.<br />
Barack Obama says that<br />
"we're making progress." This is<br />
the "new normal." We're moving<br />
forward, not backward. Just<br />
what kind of Orwellian compass<br />
is he using<br />
In his "60 Minutes" interview,<br />
Obama kept falling back<br />
on his excuse that he "inherited"<br />
an economy that was in a<br />
deep recession.<br />
Well, Ronald Reagan inherited<br />
a deeper one where the<br />
unemployment rose <strong>to</strong> 10.8 percent.<br />
Four years later when he<br />
ran for re-election, the economy<br />
was expanding at 6.3 percent,<br />
the jobless rate was about 7<br />
percent, and he won re-election<br />
by 49 states <strong>to</strong> one.<br />
Obama lamely insists things<br />
would <strong>be</strong> <strong>be</strong>tter but for the<br />
House Republicans. But<br />
Reagan faced a Democratic-run<br />
House, and it gave him the<br />
across-the-board tax <strong>cut</strong>s that<br />
got our economy moving again.<br />
As Mitt Romney repeatedly<br />
says, "This is the <strong>be</strong>st Obama<br />
can do, but it's not the <strong>be</strong>st<br />
America can do."<br />

DEAR ABBY: My husband<br />
and I just got some shocking<br />
news. His father -- age 81 -- is<br />
leaving his wife of 60 years!<br />
Mom is not entirely self-sufficient<br />
and seems dependent on<br />
him.<br />
Dad found himself a<br />
younger woman -- a "chick" of<br />
70. He has announced that he<br />
still has sexual needs and<br />
wants <strong>to</strong> enjoy the rest of his<br />
life. My husband thinks it will<br />
<strong>be</strong> a short-term fling and he'll<br />
return <strong>to</strong> Mom, but she says<br />
she won't <strong>be</strong> taking him back.<br />
(Who knows how she'll feel<br />
later)<br />
My problem is, no matter<br />
what happens <strong>be</strong>tween them,<br />
I'm having a hard time even<br />
considering forgiving him for<br />
his selfishness. I know it's not<br />
my place as his daughter-inlaw,<br />
but I don't know how I<br />
can bring myself <strong>to</strong> face him<br />
feeling as I do. Any words of<br />
wisdom -- JUDGMENTAL<br />
JUDY IN ARIZONA<br />
DEAR JUDGMENTAL<br />
JUDY: I do have a few. If your<br />
mother-in-law hasn't already<br />
done so, make sure she gets<br />
the <strong>be</strong>st legal advice possible.<br />
After 60 years of marriage,<br />
there should <strong>be</strong> plenty of<br />
assets <strong>to</strong> split. They will make<br />
her financially independent,<br />
and from that, emotional<br />
independence will follow. Do<br />
not count her out as a weak<br />
sister just yet <strong>be</strong>cause she<br />
appears <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> stronger than<br />
you think.<br />
While it's possible your<br />
father-in-law may want <strong>to</strong><br />
reunite after the fling, it is<br />
equally possible that when<br />
the "chick" sees his nest egg is<br />
cracked in half, he will <strong>be</strong> less<br />
To the edi<strong>to</strong>r:<br />
I have only lived in Ken<strong>to</strong>n<br />
for 45 years and I could not<br />
tell you how many times<br />
ODOT has taken a survey <strong>to</strong><br />
see how they could make it<br />
<strong>be</strong>tter for the truckers <strong>to</strong> get<br />
through <strong>to</strong>wn. They talked<br />
about a bypass back in the<br />
‘70s but that didn’t happen.<br />
They thought everyone would<br />
pass the <strong>to</strong>wn, so they would<br />
not get any business.<br />
I was <strong>to</strong>ld that there were<br />
like 2,000 trucks that go<br />
through <strong>to</strong>wn a day. I see a lot<br />
of trucks going south on U.S.<br />

DEAR ABBY: I have <strong>be</strong>en<br />
married <strong>to</strong> "Tom," the love of<br />
my life, for four years. We<br />
have <strong>be</strong>en <strong>to</strong>gether more than<br />
10 years and have a 2-yearold<br />
daughter.<br />
Tom was diagnosed with a<br />
terminal illness early last year<br />
and is close <strong>to</strong> the end now.<br />
He's very angry, which I<br />
understand, but he takes it<br />
out on me since I am his caregiver.<br />
I'm also a full-time student<br />
about <strong>to</strong> graduate with<br />
my degree in registered nursing,<br />
so I'm busy all the time.<br />
Between school, my daughter<br />
and giving full care <strong>to</strong> my<br />
husband, I'm stressed out. He<br />
yells a lot about everything,<br />
from money woes <strong>to</strong> the<br />
wrong bread on his sandwich.<br />
To <strong>to</strong>p it off, we haven't <strong>be</strong>en<br />
intimate since our daughter<br />
was born.<br />
I'm not considering straying<br />
from our marriage, but at<br />
times I feel I'll <strong>be</strong> ready <strong>to</strong> date<br />
reader edi<strong>to</strong>rial<br />
68, turn on Ohio 309 and over<br />
<strong>to</strong> Ohio 31 heading south.<br />
They do not like turning on<br />
Carrol Street.<br />
With NAPA gone on Perry<br />
Street, it would make a very<br />
good crossing for trucks. It is<br />
the shortest street <strong>be</strong>tween<br />
Main and Detroit streets. You<br />
could make it nice and wide<br />
for the trucks. There is no<br />
business in operation on<br />
Perry Street, so that would get<br />
them off Carrol Street where<br />
all the business is in operation.<br />
Have you ever visited the<br />
bank or FLR and tried <strong>to</strong> get<br />
out on <strong>to</strong> Carrol Street It<br />
does not go so well.<br />
As for the incline on U.S.<br />
68 (Detroit Street), time the<br />
light at Franklin Street about<br />
12 seconds after the one on<br />
Ohio Street. That will let any<br />
truck that makes it through<br />
the light on Ohio Street <strong>to</strong> get<br />
through the light on Franklin<br />
Street. It would <strong>be</strong> nice <strong>to</strong><br />
time all the lights heading<br />
north. That would get the<br />
trucks through Ken<strong>to</strong>n faster.<br />
I would like <strong>to</strong> comment on<br />
some other things in Ken<strong>to</strong>n,<br />
like why is there a s<strong>to</strong>p light<br />
on Lima Street at Scott<br />
Avenue Please don’t tell me<br />
it’s for the safety of children at<br />
Westview School. The light<br />
runs 24/7 but the school<br />
does not. The light should at<br />
least <strong>be</strong> on a detec<strong>to</strong>r, so if<br />
there is no car on Scott<br />
Avenue coming <strong>to</strong> the light, it<br />
will stay green for the cars<br />
and trucks going in and out of<br />
<strong>to</strong>wn. Every time you come <strong>to</strong><br />
the light when on Lima Street,<br />
the light will s<strong>to</strong>p you. That<br />
as soon as he's gone. It makes<br />
me feel guilty. Is it wrong <strong>to</strong><br />
feel this way Do you have<br />
any advice <strong>to</strong> help me through<br />
this tragic time in our lives -<br />
- DEPRESSED AND LONELY<br />
IN MICHIGAN<br />
DEAR DEPRESSED: Yes.<br />
S<strong>to</strong>p <strong>be</strong>ating yourself up for<br />
experiencing human emotions<br />
at a time when you're hauling<br />
a load that would crush an<br />
ox. Of COURSE your husband<br />
is angry. He has good reason<br />
<strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> -- but he's misdirecting<br />
it on you.<br />
Guilt is the last thing you<br />
need <strong>to</strong> add <strong>to</strong> what you're<br />
dealing with. It's normal <strong>to</strong><br />
crave the closeness you<br />
haven't experienced in two<br />
years.<br />
If there are counseling<br />
services offered at your nursing<br />
school, please avail yourself<br />
of them. Venting your feelings<br />
in a supportive environment<br />
will lighten your load<br />
and help you cope with your<br />
husband. There are also<br />
online support groups for<br />
caregivers. If you reach out in<br />
either direction, you'll feel <strong>be</strong>tter.<br />
It could also <strong>be</strong> helpful <strong>to</strong><br />
ask your husband's doc<strong>to</strong>r for<br />
a referral <strong>to</strong> someone who<br />
does end-of-life counseling for<br />
him.<br />

Woman pleads guilty<br />
in gruesome death<br />
CINCINNATI (AP) — In a move that would allow her <strong>to</strong><br />
escape the death penalty, an Ohio woman pleaded guilty<br />
Wednesday in the gruesome killing of a woman found covered<br />
in burns and wailing in agony on the side of a rural road.<br />
As part of a deal with prosecu<strong>to</strong>rs, 20-year-old Katrina<br />
Marie Cul<strong>be</strong>rson pleaded guilty <strong>to</strong> one count each of aggravated<br />
murder, kidnapping and aggravated arson.<br />
Muskingum County Prosecu<strong>to</strong>r Mike Haddox said that his<br />
office offered the agreement <strong>to</strong> Cul<strong>be</strong>rson in exchange for her<br />
guilty plea and on the condition that she testify against two<br />
others charged in the killing of 29-year-old Celeste<br />
Fronsman, of Akron.<br />
On Aug. 26, a driver found Fronsman on a road northeast<br />
of Zanesville in eastern Ohio. She had <strong>be</strong>en raped and burned<br />
and had a strap around her neck. She died two days later at<br />
a Columbus hospital.<br />
Cul<strong>be</strong>rson’s Columbus at<strong>to</strong>rney, Jerry McHenry, did not<br />
immediately return a call seeking comment Wednesday.<br />
Cul<strong>be</strong>rson still faces life in prison when she is sentenced,<br />
although a date for her sentencing has not <strong>be</strong>en set.<br />
“She unders<strong>to</strong>od all the terms and conditions,” Haddox<br />
said. “She entered in<strong>to</strong> it knowingly and willingly.”<br />
Prosecu<strong>to</strong>rs can cancel the agreement if Cul<strong>be</strong>rson<br />
<strong>be</strong>comes uncooperative or unwilling <strong>to</strong> testify against<br />
LaFonse Darney Dixon and Monica Jean Washing<strong>to</strong>n,<br />
Haddox said.<br />
Both Dixon and Washing<strong>to</strong>n have pleaded not guilty <strong>to</strong><br />
aggravated murder, kidnapping and aggravated arson. They<br />
face a potential death sentence if convicted.<br />
Haddox has repeatedly declined <strong>to</strong> discuss what authorities<br />
<strong>be</strong>lieve is the motive in the killing and whether there was<br />
a ringleader, saying it would <strong>be</strong> unethical for him <strong>to</strong> do so<br />
<strong>be</strong>fore trial and could compromise the prose<strong>cut</strong>ion.<br />
Muskingum County Sheriff Matt Lutz also has declined <strong>to</strong><br />
discuss the motive. He did not return a call seeking comment<br />
Wednesday.<br />
In a jailhouse interview with the <strong>Times</strong> Recorder in<br />
Zanesville this month, Cul<strong>be</strong>rson declined <strong>to</strong> discuss<br />
specifics but said she, Washing<strong>to</strong>n and Dixon “all had a part”<br />
in the killing.<br />
“I want <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> a human <strong>be</strong>ing again, not some monster,” she<br />
said. “I want <strong>to</strong> ask God for forgiveness for everything I’ve ever<br />
done.”<br />
Dixon denied involvement in a separate interview with the<br />
newspaper.<br />
Lutz has called Cul<strong>be</strong>rson’s killing “one of the most gruesome<br />
things I’ve ever seen in 23 1/2 years in law enforcement.”<br />
By JIM SALTER and BOB THOMAS<br />
Associated Press<br />
BRANSON, Mo. (AP) — For the older — OK,<br />
squarer — side of the generation gap, Andy<br />
Williams was part of the soundtrack of the<br />
1960s and ‘70s, with easy-listening hits like<br />
“Moon River,” the “Love S<strong>to</strong>ry” theme and<br />
“The Most Wonderful Time of the Year” from<br />
his <strong>be</strong>loved Christmas TV specials.<br />
The singer known for his wholesome, middle-America<br />
appeal was the antithesis of the<br />
counterculture.<br />
“The old cliche says that if you can remem<strong>be</strong>r<br />
the 1960s, you weren’t there,” Williams<br />
once recalled. “Well, I was there all right, but<br />
my memory of them is blurred — not by any<br />
drugs I <strong>to</strong>ok but by the relentless pace of the<br />
schedule I set myself.”<br />
The 84-year-old entertainer, who died<br />
Tuesday night at his Branson home following<br />
a yearlong battle with bladder cancer, outlasted<br />
many of the decade’s rock stars and<br />
fellow crooners such as Frank Sinatra and<br />
Perry Como. He remained on the charts in<strong>to</strong><br />
the 1970s and continued <strong>to</strong> perform in<strong>to</strong> his<br />
80s.<br />
Williams <strong>be</strong>came a major star in 1956, the<br />
same year as Elvis Presley, with the Sinatralike<br />
swing num<strong>be</strong>r “Canadian Sunset.” For a<br />
time, he was pushed in<strong>to</strong> such Presley imitations<br />
as “Lips of Wine” and the No. 1 smash<br />
“Butterfly.”<br />
But he mostly stuck <strong>to</strong> what he called his<br />
“natural style” and kept it up throughout his<br />
career. In 1970, when even Sinatra had temporarily<br />
retired, Williams was in the <strong>to</strong>p 10<br />
with the theme from “Love S<strong>to</strong>ry,” the Oscarwinning<br />
tearjerker. He had 18 gold records,<br />
three platinum and five Grammy award nominations.<br />
Williams was also the first host of the live<br />
Grammy awards telecast and hosted the show<br />
for seven conse<strong>cut</strong>ive years, <strong>be</strong>ginning in<br />
1971.<br />
Movie songs <strong>be</strong>came a specialty, including<br />
his signature “Moon River.” The longing<br />
Johnny Mercer-Henry Mancini ballad was his<br />
most famous song, even though he never<br />
released it as a single <strong>be</strong>cause his record<br />
company feared such lines as “my huckle<strong>be</strong>rry<br />
friend” were <strong>to</strong>o confusing and old-fashioned<br />
for teens.<br />
The song was first performed by Audrey<br />
Hepburn in the cherished 1961 film<br />
“Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” but Mancini thought<br />
“Moon River” ideal for Williams, who recorded<br />
it in “pretty much one take” and also sang it<br />
at the 1962 Academy Awards. Although<br />
“Moon River” was covered by countless artists<br />
and <strong>be</strong>came a hit single for Jerry Butler,<br />
Williams made the song his personal brand.<br />
In fact, he insisted on it.<br />
“When I hear anybody else sing it, it’s all I<br />
can <strong>to</strong> do s<strong>to</strong>p myself from shouting at the television<br />
screen, ‘No! That’s my song!”’ Williams<br />
wrote in his 2009 memoir titled, fittingly,<br />
“Moon River and Me.”<br />
At a Wednesday matinee at Williams’ Moon<br />
River Theatre in Branson, a performer <strong>to</strong>ld<br />
the crowd that Williams would have wanted<br />
the show <strong>to</strong> go on, and it did. The first show<br />
after his death included a moving video of him<br />
performing “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You.”<br />
“It was very emotional, very sad,” said<br />
Barbara Cox of Atlanta, who came <strong>to</strong> Branson<br />
on vacation. “We’ve lost a great man.”<br />
Carol and Ruth Harding, sisters who traveled<br />
from suburban Denver <strong>to</strong> attend a second<br />
show Wednesday evening, said they’ve<br />
<strong>be</strong>en Williams fans since they were teenagers.<br />
The women, both in their early 70s and married<br />
<strong>to</strong> brothers, said they’d seen him perform<br />

Andy Williams dies at 84<br />
STILLWATER, Okla. (AP)<br />
— A gunshot rang out at an<br />
Oklahoma junior high school<br />
<strong>be</strong>fore classes <strong>be</strong>gan<br />
Wednesday, terrifying<br />
teenagers who feared a gunman<br />
was on the loose.<br />
Soon, though, students<br />
learned no one else was in<br />
danger. One of their<br />
eighth-grade classmates had<br />
taken his own life, shooting<br />
himself in the head with a<br />
handgun in the hall, authorities<br />
said.<br />
“Throughout the entire<br />
thing, we all thought someone<br />
shot someone else,” said<br />
student Pai<strong>to</strong>n Gardner, 14.<br />
“We didn’t know it was a suicide.<br />
We were freaking out.”<br />
Some students bolted outside<br />
Stillwater Junior High.<br />
Staffers quickly locked down<br />
the building and evacuated<br />
the rest of the school’s 700<br />
eighth- and ninth-graders,<br />
along with students from an<br />
adjacent elementary school,<br />
police Capt. Randy Dickerson<br />
said.<br />
Dickerson said the 13-<br />
year-old didn’t leave a note,<br />
and authorities said they<br />
don’t know why he killed<br />
himself. Superintendent Ann<br />
Caine, who oversees the district<br />
about 70 miles west of<br />
Tulsa, said there weren’t any<br />
reports that the teen had<br />
<strong>be</strong>en bullied.<br />
“There is no indication<br />
that that’s what occurred,”<br />
Caine said. She said the teen<br />
was a good student who got<br />
along with other kids.<br />
About 120 people attended<br />
a vigil Wednesday evening at<br />
Highland Park United<br />
Methodist Church.<br />
Hana Sumpter, a 14-yearold<br />
eight-grader, said she<br />
was friends with the boy,<br />
adding that he had given no<br />
indication of problems<br />
<strong>be</strong>forehand.<br />
“He acted like he usually<br />
does,” she said.<br />
The Rev. Derrek Belase led<br />
the group in prayer. Mem<strong>be</strong>rs<br />
of the student’s family did<br />
not attend the service.<br />
Police wouldn’t say where<br />
the weapon came from or<br />
how the eighth-grader got it<br />
in<strong>to</strong> the school. Caine said<br />
there aren’t any metal detec<strong>to</strong>rs<br />
but expects there will <strong>be</strong><br />
discussions about the policy.<br />
Gardner said she realized<br />
something was wrong early<br />
Wednesday when students<br />
<strong>be</strong>gan <strong>to</strong> run past her.<br />
“People looked terrified,”<br />
said Gardner, a ninth-grader.<br />
“The football coach was like,<br />
‘Get out, get out! Someone’s<br />
<strong>be</strong>en shot.”’<br />
She and other students<br />
sprinted down the hallway,<br />
passing blood on the wall<br />
and floor as she ran <strong>to</strong> a<br />
numerous times, including 10 trips <strong>to</strong> his<br />
Christmas show.<br />
“It’s not going <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> the same without him,”<br />
Ruth Harding said. “It’s like losing a family<br />
mem<strong>be</strong>r. He’s <strong>be</strong>en part of our family.”<br />
Because of illness, Williams had not performed<br />
in several months<br />
He had <strong>be</strong>en a constant presence on television<br />
with “The Andy Williams Show,” which<br />
lasted in various formats through the 1960s<br />
and in<strong>to</strong> 1971. It won three Emmys and featured<br />
Williams alternately performing his stable<br />
of hits and bantering with guest stars.<br />
It was on that show that Williams — who<br />
launched his own career as part of an allbrother<br />
quartet — introduced the world <strong>to</strong><br />
another clean-<strong>cut</strong> act — the original four<br />
singing Osmond Brothers of Utah. Four<br />
decades later, the Osmonds and Williams<br />
would find themselves in close proximity<br />
again, sharing Williams’ theater in Branson.<br />
Williams did book some rock and soul acts,<br />
including the Beach Boys, the Temptations<br />
and Smokey Robinson. On one show, in 1970,<br />
Williams sang “Heaven Help Us All” with Ray<br />
Charles, Mama Cass and a then-little known<br />
El<strong>to</strong>n John, a vision <strong>to</strong> Williams in his rhines<strong>to</strong>ne<br />
glasses and black cape. But Williams<br />
liked him and his breakthrough hit “Your<br />
Song” enough <strong>to</strong> record it himself.<br />
For many families, Williams and his music<br />
were a holiday tradition. His annual<br />
Christmas specials continued long after his<br />
show ended, featuring Williams dressed in<br />
colorful sweaters singing favorites that almost<br />
always included “The Most Wonderful Time of<br />
the Year,” a song written for Williams that<br />
<strong>be</strong>came a holiday standard.<br />
Williams’ act was, apparently, not an act.<br />
The singer’s unflappable manner on television<br />
and in concert was mirrored offstage.<br />
“I guess I’ve never really <strong>be</strong>en aggressive,<br />
although almost everybody else in show business<br />
fights and gouges and knees <strong>to</strong> get<br />
where they want <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong>,” he once said. “My<br />
trouble is, I’m not constructed temperamentally<br />
along those lines.”<br />
His wholesome image endured one jarring<br />
interlude.<br />
In 1976, his ex-wife, former Las Vegas<br />
showgirl Claudine Longet, shot and killed her<br />
lover, skiing champion Spider Sabich. The<br />
Rolling S<strong>to</strong>nes mocked the tragedy in<br />
“Claudine,” a song so pitiless that it wasn’t<br />
released until decades later. Longet, who said<br />
the slaying was an accident, spent only a<br />
week in jail. Williams s<strong>to</strong>od by her. He escorted<br />
her <strong>to</strong> the courthouse, testified on her<br />
<strong>be</strong>half and provided support for her and their<br />
children, Noelle, Christian and Ro<strong>be</strong>rt.<br />
Also in the 1970s, Williams was seen frequently<br />
in the company of Ethel Kennedy,<br />
Ro<strong>be</strong>rt Kennedy’s widow. The singer denied<br />
any romantic involvement.<br />
He was born Howard Andrew Williams in<br />
Wall Lake, Iowa, on Dec. 3, 1927, and <strong>be</strong>gan<br />
performing with older brothers Dick, Bob and<br />
Don in the local Presbyterian church choir.<br />
Their father, postal worker and insurance<br />
man Jay Emerson Williams, was the choirmaster<br />
and the force <strong>be</strong>hind his children’s<br />
career.<br />
When Andy was 8, Williams’ father<br />
arranged for the kids <strong>to</strong> have an audition on<br />
Des Moines radio station WHO’s Iowa Barn<br />
Dance. They were initially turned down but<br />
kept returning until they were finally accepted.<br />
The show attracted attention from<br />
Chicago, Cincinnati and Hollywood. Another<br />
star at WHO was a young sportscaster named<br />
Ronald Reagan, who would later praise<br />
Williams as a “national treasure.”<br />

Another ninth-grader,<br />
Jake Green, said he heard<br />
the single shot ring out after<br />
he and dozens of other students<br />

“We heard this loud boom<br />

Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael<br />

No. 1 movie, according <strong>to</strong> final<br />
studio figures reported<br />
Monday.<br />
“End of Watch” had <strong>be</strong>en in<br />

with two other new movies,<br />
Jennifer Lawrence’s horror<br />
tale “House at the End of the<br />
Street” and Clint Eastwood’s<br />
baseball drama “Trouble with<br />
the Curve.”<br />
“House at the End of the<br />
Street” wound up at No. 2 with<br />
$12.3 million. “Trouble with<br />
the Curve” came in at No. 3<br />
with $12.2 million.<br />
Based on studio estimates ,<br />
“End of Watch” and “House at<br />
the End of the Street” were<br />
tied for No. 1 with $13 million<br />
each. “Trouble with the Curve”<br />
had <strong>be</strong>en right <strong>be</strong>hind with<br />

years of unrelenting sex abuse<br />

URBANA — The 40th<br />
annual Ok<strong>to</strong><strong>be</strong>rfest, sponsored<br />
by the Champaign<br />
County His<strong>to</strong>rical Society,<br />
will <strong>be</strong> held from 10 a.m. <strong>to</strong><br />
4:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 7 on<br />
the museum grounds, 809<br />
East Lawn Ave., Urbana.<br />
One of the longest running<br />
productions of its kind,<br />
Ok<strong>to</strong><strong>be</strong>rfest 2012 has attracted<br />
about 100 artists,<br />
craftspersons, food vendors,<br />
organizations and performers<br />
from Champaign and ten<br />
other Ohio counties.<br />
There is an admission<br />
charge of $2 per person.<br />
Children aged ten and under<br />
will <strong>be</strong> admitted free if accompanied<br />
by a paying adult.<br />
Parking is free in the city lot<br />
adjacent <strong>to</strong> the museum<br />

revenues.<br />
Open Road Films’ “End of<br />
Watch” stars Gyllenhaal and<br />
Pena as partners patrolling the<br />
mean streets of LA. Relativity<br />
Media’s “House at the End of<br />
the Street” casts “The Hunger<br />
Games” star Lawrence as a<br />
youth who moves with her<br />
mom next door <strong>to</strong> a house<br />
where bloody misdeeds <strong>to</strong>ok<br />
place years earlier. “Trouble<br />
with the Curve,” released by<br />
Warner Bros., stars Eastwood<br />
as an aging baseball scout<br />
whose daughter (Adams)<br />
accompanies him on his latest<br />
road trip.<br />
Eastwood’s appearance at<br />
the Republican National<br />
Convention, when he did a<br />
rambling fantasy chat with<br />
President Barack Obama<br />
addressed <strong>to</strong> an empty chair,<br />
probably had little or no effect<br />
on the results for “Trouble<br />
with the Curve,” said Paul<br />
Dergara<strong>be</strong>dian, analyst for<br />
box-office<br />
tracker<br />
Hollywood.com.<br />
The movie opened in line<br />
with other Eastwood flicks,<br />
which tend <strong>to</strong> start modestly<br />
but stick around awhile at theaters<br />
<strong>be</strong>cause he draws older<br />

God after a suicide attempt<br />

Mallette, 37, has laid bare<br />
her past in a new book,<br />
“Nowhere but Up: The s<strong>to</strong>ry of<br />
Justin Bie<strong>be</strong>r’s Mom,” out<br />
recently from the inspirational<br />
publisher Revell. It’s a powerful,<br />
plainspoken s<strong>to</strong>ry, written<br />
in collaboration with A.J.<br />
Gregory, a mother herself. A<br />
portion of proceeds have <strong>be</strong>en<br />
promised <strong>to</strong> shelters like the<br />
one that harbored Mallette in<br />
Canada when her mother<br />
kicked her out of the house<br />
after she got pregnant.<br />
Her troubles <strong>be</strong>gan well<br />
<strong>be</strong>fore that, however, and<br />
Mallette has forgotten little.<br />
“Writing the book was part<br />
of my healing process,” she<br />
said in an interview. “Just having<br />
<strong>to</strong> relive things as I’m writing<br />
it down. There are parts<br />
that are still painful <strong>to</strong> go over.”<br />

Ok<strong>to</strong><strong>be</strong>rfest focused on the<br />
products and processes of<br />
Early America. Over the<br />
years, new products have<br />
<strong>be</strong>en added and old techniques<br />
and processes teamed<br />
with contemporary materials.<br />
But, organizers hold <strong>to</strong> the<br />
original stipulation that<br />
everything offered for sale<br />
must <strong>be</strong> handmade or homegrown<br />
by the exhibi<strong>to</strong>r. No<br />
mass produced or imports<br />
are accepted.<br />
Interludes of music will <strong>be</strong><br />
provided by the Champaign<br />
Dulcimer Club and the<br />
"merry-go-round" music of a<br />

The museum's collections<br />

The Society has no paid<br />
employees; all work is done<br />
by volunteers. Festival proceeds<br />

She was 2 when she<br />
watched her alcoholic, abusive<br />
father walk out the door and<br />
about 3 when she was first sexually<br />
abused by someone she<br />
knew. Mallette doesn’t identify<br />
her numerous molesters,<br />

“To my abusers: I forgive<br />

There was pot smoking and<br />

It was there that she was led<br />
<strong>to</strong> a Christian life, though her<br />
faith faltered soon after and she<br />
fell back in with her old friends.<br />
Sex with Jeremy left her pregnant.<br />
She resisted intense<br />
pressure from those around<br />
her <strong>to</strong> have an abortion: “I<br />
knew that I had <strong>to</strong> do what it<br />

There was no returning<br />

wondering how she could go<br />
back <strong>to</strong> school with no one <strong>to</strong><br />
care for Justin.<br />
With the help of a neighbor<br />
who paid for a year’s worth of<br />
daycare, Mallette slowly earned<br />
her degree, followed by college<br />
training in website design on<br />
scholarship.<br />
Meanwhile, her son’s perfect<br />
rhythm on the drums, his guitar<br />
playing and singing talent,<br />
surfaced early, along with a<br />
hyperactive nature and love of<br />
soccer and hockey.<br />
He earned extra cash as a<br />
busker on guitar and a djem<strong>be</strong><br />
drum he had received as a gift.<br />
Singing on the streets for<br />
money is something Mallette<br />
said she never forced him <strong>to</strong> do<br />
but earned them thousands of<br />
dollars after the first time he<br />
tried for fun at age 6.<br />
Success snowballed when<br />
Justin was 12 on the strength<br />
of YouTu<strong>be</strong> videos Mallette<br />
posted for faraway relatives<br />
that were quickly discovered by<br />
young people and exploded<br />
with millions of views. Along<br />
came Scooter Braun, a persistent<br />
manager who launched<br />
Justin’s career at barely 13,<br />
fresh out of junior high.<br />
He’s 18 now, his mother’s<br />
age when she had him. Mallette<br />
said he’s pushing for his independence,<br />
moving alone in<strong>to</strong> a<br />
house he bought in Calabasas,<br />
California. Mom wasn’t invited<br />
<strong>to</strong> join him but lives nearby.<br />

National Dog Week<br />
By NANCY MABREY<br />
Direc<strong>to</strong>r, Wildheart Rehabilita<strong>to</strong>rs<br />
National Dog Week is the last full week of Septem<strong>be</strong>r. It's<br />
time <strong>to</strong> celebrate with your <strong>be</strong>st friend but also <strong>to</strong> help other<br />
dogs in need.<br />
It would <strong>be</strong> a good week <strong>to</strong> donate some time <strong>to</strong> a shelter,<br />
or may<strong>be</strong> drop off something on their wish list. Take your dog<br />
<strong>to</strong> the park <strong>to</strong> play. Feeling adventurous Host a dog party,<br />
invite some of your pup's friends over for a bash. It's also a<br />
great time <strong>to</strong> adopt a dog, especially since next week starts<br />
American Humane's Adopt-A-Dog month.<br />
What about baking your own dog biscuits That's a good<br />
way <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> sure they don't contain harmful ingredients and<br />
they don't come from China.<br />
Pumpkin Dog Biscuits<br />
Preheat oven <strong>to</strong> 350 degrees.<br />
2 eggs<br />
1/2 cup canned pumpkin<br />
2 tablespoons dry milk<br />
1/4 tsp sea salt<br />
2 1/2 c. brown rice flour<br />
1 tsp dried parsely<br />
Mix <strong>to</strong>gether wet ingredients, then add the dry ingredients.<br />
Roll out on cookie sheet 1/4 <strong>to</strong> 1/2 inch thick. Cut in<strong>to</strong> <strong>cut</strong>e<br />
shapes, use a ravioli <strong>cut</strong>ter, or just break off pieces when they<br />
are crispy. I imagine someone could use unbleached whole<br />
wheat flour if they were worried about arsenic in the rice flour.<br />
Bake 20 minutes at 350 degrees, turn them over and bake<br />
for another 20 minutes.<br />

NFL, referees come <strong>to</strong> an agreement<br />
NEW YORK (AP) — The<br />
NFL’s regular officiating crews<br />
are back. Their return<br />
couldn’t have come soon<br />
enough for many players,<br />
coaches and fans.<br />
After two days of marathon<br />
negotiations — and mounting<br />
frustration throughout the<br />
league — the NFL and the<br />
officials’ union announced at<br />
midnight Thursday that a<br />
tentative eight-year agreement<br />
had <strong>be</strong>en reached <strong>to</strong> end a<br />
lockout that <strong>be</strong>gan in June.<br />
The deal came on the heels<br />
of Seattle’s chaotic lastsecond<br />
win over Green Bay on<br />
Monday night in which the<br />
replacement<br />
officials<br />
struggled. Commissioner<br />
Roger Goodell, who was at the<br />
bargaining table Tuesday and<br />
Wednesday, said the regular<br />
officials would work the<br />
Browns-Ravens game at<br />
Baltimore on Thursday night.<br />
“We are glad <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> getting<br />
back on the field for this<br />
week’s games,” NFL Referees<br />
Association president Scott<br />
Green said.<br />
And plenty of players<br />
echoed that sentiment.<br />
“Never thought I would <strong>be</strong><br />
excited for the refs <strong>to</strong> come<br />
back <strong>to</strong> work but it’s about<br />
time it was definitely<br />
necessary!” Cleveland return<br />
specialist Josh Cribbs tweeted<br />
Thursday morning.<br />
Minnesota punter Chris<br />
Kluwe chimed in, <strong>to</strong>o.<br />
“It was a noble experiment,<br />
BALTIMORE (AP) — The<br />
NFL didn’t do the Baltimore<br />
Ravens any favors by having<br />
them play four times over an<br />
18-day span, including three<br />
night games.<br />
In what might <strong>be</strong> perceived<br />
as a concilia<strong>to</strong>ry gesture, the<br />
schedule-maker enabled the<br />
Ravens <strong>to</strong> conclude that<br />
difficult stretch at home<br />
Thursday night against the<br />
winless Cleveland Browns.<br />
Baltimore (2-1) has won 12<br />
straight at home, the longest<br />
streak in the NFL, and its<br />
nine-game run against the<br />
AFC North is also the <strong>to</strong>p<br />
active streak among teams<br />
within their own division.<br />
Throw in the fact that the<br />
Ravens have won eight in a<br />
row over the Browns (0-3) by<br />
a collective score of 203-91,<br />
and it would appear as if this<br />
game is a mismatch.<br />
The equalizer is Baltimore’s<br />
quick turnaround. Ravens<br />
walked off the field shortly<br />
but I think ultimately a failed<br />
experiment, from what we’ve<br />
seen. It’ll <strong>be</strong> good not <strong>to</strong> have<br />
<strong>to</strong> worry about that when<br />
we’re on the field,” he said.<br />
“It’s good that it won’t <strong>be</strong> a<br />
distraction anymore.”<br />
Shortly after the news<br />
broke, Buffalo running back<br />
C.J. Spiller tweeted, “Welcome<br />
back REFS.”<br />
The tentative deal must <strong>be</strong><br />
ratified by 51 percent of the<br />
union’s 121 mem<strong>be</strong>rs. They<br />
plan <strong>to</strong> vote Friday and<br />
Saturday in Dallas.<br />
For the Packers, Redskins,<br />
Lions and other teams who<br />
voiced their displeasure with<br />
calls that might have swayed<br />
games, the agreement doesn’t<br />
change their records. But<br />
after having replacements for<br />
the first three weeks,<br />
triggering a wave of outrage<br />
that threatened <strong>to</strong> disrupt the<br />
rest of the season, Titans<br />
quarterback Matt Hassel<strong>be</strong>ck<br />
probably spoke for his peers<br />
by simply echoing Spiller:<br />
“Welcome back.”<br />
The agreement hinged on<br />
working out pension and<br />
retirement <strong>be</strong>nefits for the<br />
officials, who are part-time<br />
employees of the league. The<br />
tentative pact calls for their<br />
salaries <strong>to</strong> increase from an<br />
average of $149,000 a year in<br />
2011 <strong>to</strong> $173,000 in 2013,<br />
rising <strong>to</strong> $205,000 by 2019.<br />
Under the proposed deal,<br />
the current defined <strong>be</strong>nefit<br />
pension plan will remain in<br />
<strong>be</strong>fore midnight Sunday after<br />
their emotional 31-30 vic<strong>to</strong>ry<br />
over the New England<br />
Patriots, and they’ll <strong>be</strong> back<br />
on the turf for the opening<br />
kickoff against the Browns<br />
only 92 1/2 <strong>hours</strong> later.<br />
“We’ve played Thursday<br />
after a Sunday, but we<br />
haven’t played Thursday after<br />
a Sunday night,” coach John<br />
Harbaugh said. “We are<br />
adjusting the schedule a little<br />
bit. Two things are important:<br />
preparation and recovery.<br />
One can’t really take a<br />
backseat <strong>to</strong> the other; the<br />
recovery is going <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> just as<br />
important as the<br />
preparation.”<br />
Instead of having a week <strong>to</strong><br />
allow their bruises <strong>to</strong> heal, the<br />
Ravens got three days. There<br />
was no hitting at practice,<br />
and Harbaugh instructed the<br />
players <strong>to</strong> take it easy at<br />
night.<br />
“Our coaches have <strong>to</strong><br />
understand they can’t push<br />
place for current officials<br />
through the 2016 season or<br />
until the official earns 20<br />
years’ service. The defined<br />
<strong>be</strong>nefit plan will then <strong>be</strong><br />
frozen.<br />
Retirement <strong>be</strong>nefits will <strong>be</strong><br />
provided for new hires, and<br />
for all officials <strong>be</strong>ginning in<br />
2017, through a defined<br />
contribution arrangement.<br />
The annual league<br />
contribution made on <strong>be</strong>half<br />
of each game official will <strong>be</strong>gin<br />
with an average of more than<br />
$18,000 per official and<br />
increase <strong>to</strong> more than<br />
$23,000 per official in 2019.<br />
Beginning with the 2013<br />
season, the NFL will have the<br />
option <strong>to</strong> hire a num<strong>be</strong>r of<br />
officials on a full-time basis <strong>to</strong><br />
work year round, including on<br />
the field. The NFL also will <strong>be</strong><br />
able <strong>to</strong> retain additional<br />
officials for training and<br />
development, and can assign<br />
those officials <strong>to</strong> work games.<br />
The num<strong>be</strong>r of additional<br />
officials will <strong>be</strong> determined by<br />
the league.<br />
“As you know, this has <strong>to</strong><br />
<strong>be</strong> ratified and we know very<br />
little about it, but we’re<br />
excited <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> back. And<br />
ready,” referee Ed Hochuli<br />
<strong>to</strong>ld The Associated Press in a<br />
telephone interview. “And I<br />
think that’s the most<br />
important message — that<br />
we’re ready.”<br />
The longest contract with<br />
on-field officials in NFL<br />
his<strong>to</strong>ry was reached with the<br />
this team,” safety Bernard<br />
Pollard said. “We can’t push<br />
like we usually can <strong>be</strong>cause<br />
we just got out of battle a<br />
couple of nights ago. Our<br />
coaches are doing a good job,<br />
our position coaches are<br />
doing a great job in meetings.<br />
We get in the weight room, get<br />
in <strong>be</strong>d, get some rest and<br />
come back here ready <strong>to</strong> go.”<br />
The Ravens addressed the<br />
preparation part of the<br />
equation by scouting the<br />
Browns <strong>be</strong>fore Baltimore<br />
faced New England.<br />
“Our advance staff, they<br />
were working on this game<br />
last week,” offensive<br />
coordina<strong>to</strong>r Cam Cameron<br />
said. “We were ahead of<br />
schedule <strong>be</strong>fore the New<br />
England game for this game,<br />
and we’ll <strong>be</strong> prepared.”<br />
Forgive the Browns if they<br />
have little pity for Baltimore’s<br />
quick turnaround. Cleveland<br />
has problems of its own, such<br />
as revving up an offense<br />

Replacements have <strong>be</strong>en<br />
used both <strong>to</strong> play and officiate<br />
NFL games <strong>be</strong>fore. In 1987,<br />
the players went on strike and<br />
three games were played with<br />
replacement players. In 2001,<br />
the first week of the regular<br />
season was officiated by<br />
replacements <strong>be</strong>fore a deal<br />
was worked out.<br />
One big difference: The<br />
replacements 11 years ago<br />
generally came from the<br />
highest levels of college<br />
football. These officials were<br />
from lower college divisions or<br />
other leagues such as Arena<br />
Football.<br />
After Seattle’s 14-12 vic<strong>to</strong>ry<br />
against the Packers, their<br />
ability <strong>to</strong> call fast-moving NFL<br />
games drew mounting<br />
criticism, with ESPN analyst<br />
Jon Gruden calling their work<br />
“tragic and comical.”<br />
The Seahawks <strong>be</strong>at Green<br />
Bay on a desperation pass<br />
in<strong>to</strong> the end zone on the final<br />
play. Packers safety M.D.<br />
Jennings had both hands on<br />
the ball in the end zone, and<br />
when he fell <strong>to</strong> the ground in<br />
a scrum, both Jennings and<br />
Seahawks receiver Golden<br />
Tate had their arms on the<br />
ball.<br />
The closest official <strong>to</strong> the<br />
play, at the back of the end<br />
zone, signaled for the clock <strong>to</strong><br />
s<strong>to</strong>p, while another official at<br />
the sideline ran in and then<br />
signaled <strong>to</strong>uchdown.<br />
With short week, Ravens <strong>to</strong> face winless Browns<br />
centered around rookie<br />
quarterback Brandon Weeden<br />
and first-year running back<br />
Trent Richardson.<br />
In a 24-14 home loss <strong>to</strong><br />
Buffalo last Sunday, Weeden<br />
was picked off twice and<br />
Richardson was limited <strong>to</strong> 27<br />
yards on 12 carries. Now<br />
they’re in bounce-back mode<br />
against a defense led by Ray<br />
Lewis and Ed Reed.<br />
“They’re a challenge.<br />
They’re a really good defense,”<br />
Weeden said. “We’re going <strong>to</strong><br />
have <strong>to</strong> play really well. We’re<br />
going <strong>to</strong> have <strong>to</strong> take care of<br />
the football, no penalties,<br />
none of this stuff that shoots<br />
ourselves in the foot.”<br />
After last week’s dud<br />
against the Bills, who needed<br />
only 10-plus minutes <strong>to</strong> take<br />
a 14-0 lead, the Browns were<br />
delighted <strong>to</strong> have a short<br />
work-week <strong>be</strong>fore returning <strong>to</strong><br />
action.<br />
“Mentally, absolutely.<br />
Physically, guys are a little<br />
sore,” Weeden said. “If you<br />
win, you’d rather have some<br />
time off. If you lose, it’s nice <strong>to</strong><br />
get out and play as soon as<br />
possible. Guys are eager <strong>to</strong><br />
get back out and compete<br />
again.”<br />
The Ravens would have<br />
loved a month <strong>to</strong> savor their<br />
win over Tom Brady and the<br />
Patriots. Instead, they had <strong>to</strong><br />
quickly turn the page.<br />
“There’s no more looking in<br />
the mirror. There’s no more<br />
admiring the vic<strong>to</strong>ry, so <strong>to</strong><br />
speak,” Harbaugh said. “What<br />
we did was we went <strong>to</strong> work.<br />
We are trying <strong>to</strong> build on the<br />
positive, but we have <strong>to</strong><br />
correct the mistakes and then<br />
look straight <strong>to</strong> Thursday<br />
night.”<br />
Baltimore is striving <strong>to</strong> stay<br />
a<strong>to</strong>p the AFC North. The<br />
Browns are simply trying <strong>to</strong><br />
shake their stature as the<br />
only winless team in the<br />
conference. Cleveland hasn’t<br />
<strong>be</strong>aten the Ravens since<br />
2007, but perhaps the timing<br />
is perfect for an upset.<br />

<strong>Times</strong> sports edi<strong>to</strong>r<br />
After suffering their first<br />
Western Buckeye League loss<br />
last week, the Ken<strong>to</strong>n Wildcats<br />
will look <strong>to</strong> rebound when Elida<br />
visits Robinson Field on Friday.<br />
Unfortunately for the<br />
Wildcats the task at hand is no<br />
easy one as they prepare <strong>to</strong> face<br />
a Bulldog opponent that enters<br />
the contest with a 5-0 record<br />
and a No. 5 ranking in the AP<br />
state Division III poll.<br />
"Elida is the real deal,"<br />
Ken<strong>to</strong>n coach Mike Mauk said.<br />
"They have most of their players<br />
returning on a defense that’s<br />
<strong>be</strong>en outstanding. From Piqua<br />
in week one right on through<br />
last week, they have <strong>be</strong>en <strong>be</strong>ating<br />
everybody they've played.<br />
“We have <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> consistent<br />
with our offense and our<br />
defense if we want <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> successful<br />
and we can't let them<br />
control the football."<br />
The Wildcats suffered a 52-<br />
16 setback at Ottawa-Glandorf<br />
last Friday, in which the Titans<br />
scored the final 36 points of the<br />
game.<br />
In that game, Wildcat quarterback<br />
Grant Sherman was 21<br />
of 45 through the air for 261<br />
yards with a pair of <strong>to</strong>uchdown<br />
passes and two interceptions.<br />
His <strong>to</strong>p target was Justin<br />
Sawmiller, who had 10 receptions<br />
for 148 yards with both of<br />
those scoring catches.<br />
Matt Bahr and Noah<br />
Furbush had 18 tackles each <strong>to</strong><br />
lead a Wildcat defense which<br />
struggled against the run,<br />
allowing the Titans over 300<br />
yards on the ground.<br />
At the mid-point of the season,<br />
Sherman has completed<br />
145 of 222 passes for 1,998<br />
yards with 26 <strong>to</strong>uchdowns and<br />
4 interceptions.<br />
Sawmiller has caught 58<br />
passes for 912 yards and has<br />
nine scores. Zach Wolowicz has<br />
added 32 receptions for 399<br />
yards and five scores, while<br />
Colyn Blackford has 29 grabs<br />
for 372 yards with 6 <strong>to</strong>uchdowns.<br />
Elida (5-0)<br />
at<br />
Ken<strong>to</strong>n (3-2)<br />
7:30 p.m, Friday<br />
at Robinson<br />
Field<br />
Bahr leads the Wildcat<br />
defense with 15.0 tackles per<br />
game. Caleb Halsey has three<br />
interceptions.<br />
Mauk said his team will<br />
have <strong>to</strong> regroup and refocus <strong>to</strong><br />
<strong>be</strong> successful against the<br />
Bulldogs.<br />
"We still have other things<br />
ahead of us and goals that we<br />
want <strong>to</strong> achieve and accomplish,"<br />
Mauk said. "As disappointing<br />
as last week's loss<br />
was, it's one game and we have<br />
<strong>to</strong> do the things we need <strong>to</strong> do<br />
<strong>to</strong> make ourselves <strong>be</strong>tter and<br />
shore things up both on the<br />
offense and defense. The guys<br />
have come in this week with a<br />
pretty good attitude and are<br />
excited <strong>to</strong> have another game<br />
on Friday.”<br />
Mauk said it is a concern<br />
that O-G and Shawnee have<br />
able <strong>to</strong> control the ball with<br />
their rushing attacks the past<br />
couple weeks.<br />
"That's a call <strong>to</strong> our guys on<br />
defense that it's time for them<br />
<strong>to</strong> step up," Mauk said. "They<br />
came in<strong>to</strong> the season inexperienced,<br />
but they have played in<br />
some games and it coming <strong>to</strong><br />
More sports on pages 8,9<br />
Wildcats will try <strong>to</strong> solve Elida’s defense<br />
the point were it's time for<br />
them <strong>to</strong> step up and play like<br />
they're capable of playing."<br />
The Bulldogs come in<strong>to</strong> the<br />
game with a defense that<br />
boasts a reputation of <strong>be</strong>ing<br />
one of the <strong>to</strong>ughest in the WBL<br />
this season.<br />
Led by linebacker Quentin<br />
Poling, the Bulldogs are allowing<br />
opponents an average of<br />
8.8 points and 146.4 yards per<br />
contest.<br />
The yards allowed is far and<br />
away the <strong>be</strong>st in the WBL<br />
through five weeks, as Ottawa-<br />
Glandorf and Ken<strong>to</strong>n are second<br />
and third, respectively, at<br />
283 and 289.4 yards per game<br />
allowed.<br />
“Our defense has <strong>be</strong>en<br />
excellent – it has <strong>be</strong>en keeping<br />
us in ball games,” Elida coach<br />
Jason Carpenter said. “Our<br />
offense has taken advantage of<br />
short fields that out defense<br />
has gotten for us. Our special<br />
teams have <strong>be</strong>en very good as<br />
well.”<br />
Poling leads Elida’s defense<br />
with 63 tackles, which is second<br />
in the WBL <strong>to</strong> the Wildcats’<br />
Bahr.<br />
In last week’s 38-13 win<br />
over Shawnee, the Bulldogs<br />
held Shawnee <strong>to</strong> 178 yards of<br />
offense, including just 45 rushing<br />
yards.<br />
The Bulldogs offense, which<br />
replaced three-year starter<br />
Reggie McAdams at quarterback,<br />
has <strong>be</strong>en getting <strong>be</strong>tter<br />
from week <strong>to</strong> week.<br />
Elida had 278 yards of<br />
offense against Shawnee last<br />
weekend, led by sophomore<br />
quarterback Clark Etzler who<br />
was 11 of 20 for 186 yards with<br />
two <strong>to</strong>uchdown passes. He also<br />
ran the ball 15 times for 62<br />
yards.<br />
Wide receiver Brandon<br />
Stinson had 4 catches for 97<br />
yards with a 40-yard <strong>to</strong>uchdown<br />
reception.<br />
Elida is averaging 27.4<br />
points and 290 yards of offense<br />
per contest (182.3 passing).<br />
Etzler has completed 65 of<br />
105 passes for 829 yards with<br />
8 <strong>to</strong>uchdowns and 5 interceptions.<br />
His <strong>to</strong>p receiver is<br />
Stinson, who has caught 33<br />
passes for 448 yards with 5<br />
scoring catches.<br />
Carpenter said it will <strong>be</strong><br />
interesting seeing how his<br />
team matches up against<br />
Ken<strong>to</strong>n offensively and defensively.<br />
“They can put up ungodly<br />
num<strong>be</strong>rs on offense,” the Elida<br />
coach said. “Sherman has really<br />
excelled in the quarterback<br />
role replacing Maty (Mauk). If<br />
Ken<strong>to</strong>n gets off <strong>to</strong> a quick start<br />
it will <strong>be</strong> <strong>to</strong>ugh for us <strong>be</strong>cause<br />
of our inexperience on offense.<br />
“This is one week where<br />
we’ll see an offense and a<br />
defense that we won’t see the<br />
rest of the season. It’s one of<br />
those weeks where we hope<br />
that our defense will <strong>be</strong> able <strong>to</strong><br />
pick up their spread quicker<br />
than their Spartan 4-3 will <strong>be</strong><br />
able <strong>to</strong> pick up our offense,”<br />
Carpenter said.<br />
Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m.<br />
