<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 />

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 />

are more likely <strong>to</strong> graduate high school<br />

and less likely <strong>to</strong> commit crimes as adults.<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 />

remainder of his unexpired<br />

term which ends on March 8,<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 />

Cleveland man sent <strong>to</strong> prison for crimes<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 />

‘Moon River’ crooner<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 />

‘End of Watch’ claims No. 1 for movies<br />

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The<br />

police s<strong>to</strong>ry “End of Watch”<br />

has won a close race at the<br />

weekend box office.<br />

The LA cop tale starring<br />

Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael<br />

Pena debuted with $13.2 million<br />

<strong>to</strong> finish as the weekend’s<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 />

$12.7 million.<br />

NEW YORK (AP) — Pattie<br />

Mallette was 18, living in a<br />

home for pregnant girls after<br />

years of unrelenting sex abuse<br />

and depression when she gave<br />

birth <strong>to</strong> a boy she thought she’d<br />

name Jesse, a boy whose first<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 />

grounds. There is no rain<br />

Ok<strong>to</strong><strong>be</strong>rfest is the Society's<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 />

a blur, and her eventual turn <strong>to</strong><br />

God after a suicide attempt<br />

was conceived.<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 />

has since <strong>be</strong>come a regional<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 />

will <strong>be</strong> open <strong>to</strong> Ok<strong>to</strong><strong>be</strong>rfest<br />

The Society has no paid<br />

employees; all work is done<br />

by volunteers. Festival proceeds<br />

and mem<strong>be</strong>rship dues<br />

watched her alcoholic, abusive<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 />

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 />

assistance of two federal<br />

media<strong>to</strong>rs.<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 />

By The Associated Press<br />

Today is Thursday, Sept. 27, the 271st day of<br />

2012. There are 95 days left in the year.<br />

Today’s Highlight in His<strong>to</strong>ry:<br />

On Sept. 27, 1962, “Silent Spring,” Rachel<br />

Carson’s groundbreaking as well as controversial<br />

study on the effects of pesticides on the environment,<br />

was published in book form by Hough<strong>to</strong>n<br />

Mifflin.<br />

On this date:<br />

In 1540, Pope Paul III issued a papal bull<br />

establishing the Society of Jesus, or Jesuits, as a<br />

religious order.<br />

In 1779, John Adams was named by Congress<br />

<strong>to</strong> negotiate the Revolutionary War’s peace terms<br />

In 1928, the United States said it was recognizing<br />

the Nationalist Chinese government.<br />

In 1941, the United States launched 14 rapidly<br />

built “Li<strong>be</strong>rty” military cargo vessels.<br />

<strong>to</strong>gether for the last time, at the Central<br />

Theater in Passaic, N.J., prior <strong>to</strong> Miller’s entry<br />

in<strong>to</strong> the Army.<br />

In 1954, “Tonight!,” hosted by Steve Allen,<br />

made its debut on NBC-TV.<br />

In 1964, the government publicly released the<br />

report of the Warren Commission, which found<br />

that Lee Harvey Oswald had acted alone in<br />

assassinating President John F. Kennedy.<br />

In 1979, Congress gave its final approval <strong>to</strong><br />

forming the U.S. Department of Education.<br />

In 1994, more than 350 Republican congressional<br />

candidates gathered on the steps of the<br />

U.S. Capi<strong>to</strong>l <strong>to</strong> sign the “Contract with America,”<br />

a 10-point platform they pledged <strong>to</strong> enact if voters<br />

sent a GOP majority <strong>to</strong> the House.<br />

Ten years ago: President George W. Bush said<br />

the United Nations should have a chance <strong>to</strong> force<br />

Saddam Hussein <strong>to</strong> give up his weapons of mass<br />

destruction <strong>be</strong>fore the United States acted on its<br />

own against Iraq, but <strong>to</strong>ld a Republican fundraising<br />

event in Denver that action had <strong>to</strong> come<br />

quickly.<br />

Five years ago: Soldiers fired in<strong>to</strong> crowds of<br />

anti-government demonstra<strong>to</strong>rs in Yangon,<br />

Myanmar; Kenji Nagai, 50, a video journalist for<br />

Japan’s APF News, was shot and killed.<br />

One year ago: Opening statements in the Los<br />

Angeles trial of Michael Jackson’s personal<br />

physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, <strong>to</strong>ok place as<br />

prosecu<strong>to</strong>rs accused Murray of killing the superstar<br />

through irresponsible use of the anesthetic<br />

propofol, and the defense maintaining Jackson<br />

had caused his own death.<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 />
