Sports

DELPHOS A long-time bowler joined the Lenny Club Thursday night at the Delphos Bowling and Recreation Center. Owner Bruce VanMetre rolled back-to-back 300 games and threw two more strikes in his third for a total of 26 in row. His series total was 834. It was unreal, Van Metre said. Usually you leave a pin or two somewhere. I turned around and said, I joined the Lenny Club. Lenny Hubert bowled back-to-backs at the Elite Tournament here five years ago. The perfect games were VanMetres 44th and 45th of his career and his second and third this year. It was his seventh 800 series. He has enough rings for every finger, several of which he gave to his children, also avid bowlers. I didnt give one to my wife, Lisa, he joked. She has her own. While Thursdays feat is an accomplishment, VanMetre said his favorite 300 was at a National PBA 50 Tournament in Dayton. Right after I bowled the 300, Tom Baker was standing in the lane next to me and he reached over and shook my hand, VanMetre said. That was something special. He also bowled a 300 in a regional PBA 50 Tournament in Lewisburg, Va. The 36-year veteran carries a 229 average this year.

Kampwirth enjoys small town, school sport atmosphere

BY ERIN COX Staff Writer news@delphosherald.com DELPHOS After two months of being in the United States, Merle Kampwirth has visited Columbus, Atlanta and Cedar Point, all while playing soccer, going to school and doing it all in a second language. Kampwirth is one of five German cultural exchange students living in Delphos for five months. She is from the sister city of Delphos Verl, Germany which has about 25,000 people; a small town according to her. Delphos is smaller than Verl but I like small towns, Kampwirth said. Her American host family is Gene and Ginger Denman, who are helping make sure Kampwirth gets to experience all she can in her short time in the US. She appreciated her host familys patience with her getting used to speaking and understanding English when she first got to Delphos. When I first started school, it was the most difficult part because everyone spoke so fast and understanding the people was hard, Kampwirth said. My host family would speak slower so I could understand which was helpful. Kampwirth, a sophomore at St. Johns High School, was happy to know some students from practicing soccer with the soccer team during the summer. She said she likes playing soccer here but only plays tennis in Germany. We only have club sports in Germany, so its really different playing here, Kampwirth said. Her favorite experience in the US so far has been from the atmosphere that the school sports create, especially at the football games. Its cool to see all the students supporting the team, Kampwirth said. School in Germany is also set up differently, Kampwirth explained. Every day is different at school in Germany, she said. We take different classes every day and get out at different times. I dont like that we have the same classes every day here. See KAMPWIRTH, page 10

Please contact us at 419-9996803 with any information needs. Construction and Maintenance Projects Week of October 14, 2013 I-75 Reconstruction Project For the most recent information concerning the I-75 reconstruction project through Lima and Allen County, and the safety upgrade of Ohio 117/309 on Limas east side please visit: www. odotlima75.org I-75 between Fourth Street and Ohio 81 in Lima will have occasional nighttime lane restrictions during reconstruction of the existing lanes of pavement, replacement of mainline bridges and reconstruction of the interchanges. Work began in March 2013 and will continue through fall of 2015. Traffic is maintained two lanes in each direction the majority of the time. Lane restrictions generally occur from 7 p.m. until 10 a.m. the following morning. The following is project information for the coming week: I-75 Mainline - Traffic in both the northbound and southbound directions is now traveling on the new concrete pavement from just south of Fourth Street to a point prior to the Ohio 117/309 interchange where traffic is then transitioned back to the existing pavement. - Paving just north of the Ohio 117/309 interchange to Reservoir Road in the northbound lanes outside the barrier wall is largely complete. Some paving operations will continue. Traffic on I-75 could be affected at times. Motorists are cautioned to watch for concrete trucks entering and exiting the highway as the operation continues. - Motorists should be aware that all entrance and exit ramp merge areas have been shortened throughout the project area.

BRIEFS

gets clean fiscal Kasich to seek Medicaid JobsOhio bill of health in audit expansion through panel
COLUMBUS (AP) Ohio Gov. John Kasich is turning to a powerful but littleknown legislative panel to do what his fellow Republican lawmakers in the General Assembly wouldnt: expand Medicaid. Kasichs administration submitted a request Friday to the state Controlling Board, which handles certain adjustments to the state budget. The request would allow federal dollars to cover more low-income residents under the health care overhaul beginning Jan. 1, said Greg Moody, director of the Governors Office of Health Transformation. The board is scheduled to meet Oct. 21. Kasich proposed an extension of Medicaid, the federal-state health program for the poor and disabled, in his two-year state budget plan in February. But the GOP-controlled Legislature has balked, despite the U.S. government promising to cover the entire cost of the expansion for the first three years and 90 percent after that. The federal health overhaul expands Medicaid eligibility to those making up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level, or about $15,860 for an individual. Roughly 366,000 Ohioans would be newly eligible for coverage under the extension beginning in 2014. A U.S. Supreme Court ruling gave states the right to refuse the Medicaid expansion without jeopardizing the rest of their money for the program. Moody said the Kasich administration sought federal approval last month to expand the program, which the state received Thursday. Now officials need legislative signoff to spend the federal money on the newly eligible Medicaid enrollees through June 30, 2015, the end of the current state budget. Kasich spokesman Rob Nichols said the administration will be ready to implement an expansion of the program when its approved. Kasich is on vacation. Its unclear what the seven-member panel will decide. The two Democrats on the board have expressed support for Medicaid expansion, including state Rep. Chris Redfern. But Redfern said Friday he worries how majority Republicans will react when the next state budget gets written in two years.

STATE/LOCAL

COLUMBUS (AP) Ohios nonprofit job-creation entity and the corporation it created through rights to state liquor proceeds received a clean fiscal bill of health in an independent audit Friday. KPMGs review of JobsOhio and JobsOhio Beverage System comes as financial questions continue to swirl around the economic engine of Gov. John Kasichs administration, including over the business ties of some of its directors. Ohio Auditor Dave Yost, a fellow Republican, is conducting his own audit of the office that incorporates some funds JobsOhio said were private and thus off-limits to the state auditor. Yost obtained the records under threat of a subpoena.

State considers rules for fracking wastewater sites

COLUMBUS (AP) State officials have started to outline rules for storage sites to contain the wastewater from oil and gas drilling. The lagoon-like sites could be the size of football fields and store millions of gallons of water used in hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, The Columbus Dispatch reported Friday. The chemical-laced fluids are used to free gas trapped deep below the earths surface. Companies then clean the water so it can be used again. State officials are drafting standards for the construction of the lagoons and their length of use, said Mark Bruce, spokesman for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. The agency was directed in the state budget to establish rules and permits for the sites. Environmental advocates fear the lagoons could pose a threat to groundwater and streams. At the very least, its an environmental health concern, said Trent Dougherty, an Ohio Environmental Council attorney. A leader in one industry group said the lagoons would have plastic liners to prevent leaks and be treated to eliminate pollutants. They want to clean it up and use it again, said Tom Stewart, vice president of the Ohio Oil and Gas Association. That means getting the water back to as fresh a state as possible. Bruce said there will be opportunities for the public to comment on the rules.

Description

Ex-coach gets 20 years Check out our photo for sex with student
CELINA (AP) A former high school coach and teacher in western Ohio has been sentenced to 20 years in prison after admitting he had sex with one of his students. Prosecutors say the ex-teacher and junior varsity girls basketball coach at Fort Recovery carried on a sexual relationship with the student that lasted more than two years. A Mercer County judge sentenced Christopher Summers Thursday on eight counts of sexual battery after he asked the judge to give him probation. The girls mother wanted the judge to hand down the maximum sentence of 40 years. Summers was on trial this summer when he decided to plead guilty. The Lima News reports that Summers said in court that he made a huge mistake and blamed his actions on depression and marital problems.

Ohio Advance Directives Week on October 13-19 allows you to make your medical wishes known and share them with your family. Advance Directives are documents to direct care when a medical condition prevents an individual from communicating their own wishes.

VIEWPOINT
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and hoping for a different outcome. Crazy, right? When we were children and dissatisfied with the outcome of a game, we would often yell, Do over! We would then repeat whatever we did hoping for a different outcome. Of course, that didnt always happen and everyone knows you only get one do-over. In golf, a do-over is a mulligan. As you can guess, a mulligan is not legal in the rules of golf. You are supposed to take the shot where it lands good or bad. At some charity golf events, one can purchase mulligans as an additional fundraiser and since everyone is on the same page, its OK. As adults, we often wish for a do-over so we can change the end result. As more mature individuals, we learn and try to accept that sometimes you only get one chance at something. You give it your all and hope for the best. Some of us make it, some dont. In life, there are few do-overs. You only get one chance to make a first impression, as they say. If you flub up a job interview, you rarely get a chance to go back and try it again. Most often, you just never hear from them again

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

DEAR EDITOR, I am writing this letter to support the Emergency Services for the City of Delphos. In lieu of recent events, it is my understanding the City of Delphos is nearly eliminating the Fire Department and significantly reducing the Police Department in an effort to reduce expenses. Lets ask ourselves, is this prudent? Where is the prioritization? One must distinguish from what is needed and what is wanted in the City of Delphos. I would think almost certainly life safety would be at the very top of the lists as a necessity but sadly, it does not seem to be so. I agree one must balance a budget. If necessary, cut costs and implement change but at what cost? Sometimes whirlwind cuts can leave a community without sufficient resources to respond to emergency calls safely and effectively. The events that have taken place seem to be a situation of planning resources to budget rather than budgeting to the proper plan. So often cuts to precious resources are made without understanding the adverse impact to the community. Without the proper staffing of the fire department, response time, without question, will be compromised. Your full-time firefighters are your first responders. In any emergency situation, a full-time firefighter is leaving the station within 15-30 seconds of receiving that call and typically arriving within three-five minutes to the scene. Therefore, to save lives and limit property damage, firefighters must arrive at the right time with the adequate resources to do the job. Without your first responders, you will have to wait. Volunteers will have to drive from their homes to the station and then to the scene. Keep this in mind: 1) A typical house fire doubles in size every 60 seconds. 2) In a cardiac arrest, there is a six-minute window of opportunity to intervene. Without intervention in a timely manner, irreversible brain damage will ensue. 3) In victims of trauma where blood loss is significant, this will escalate to a point of irreparable damage. Ask yourself, do you want to wait and wait some more in an emergency situation when its your loved one? I know everyone thinks, it wont happen to me. What if it does? There is also the issue of your ISO rating. A reduction in resources may affect the ISO classification and in turn, possibly change the insurance rates for residential and commercial property in the community. Decision-makers need to understand the overall effect of resource-reduction decisions before making them. More often than not, we take the fire, police and EMS for granted. They work long hours, nights, weekends, holidays and miss many family functions to protect our lives. God bless the men and women on our fire departments, police departments and EMS who protect our lives and property through preparedness, prevention, public education and emergency response with quality service, efficiency, effectiveness and safety. Dawn Pohlman Ottoville DEAR EDITOR: I had an opportunity this past weekend to catch up with high school classmates and friends from the DJHS class of 1978 as we celebrated our 35th reunion. Those of you who were unable to attend missed out on a wonderful time. We talked about our changing lives and enjoyed a weekend full of activities. It was a joy to hear about all the children, grandchildren and what was going on in the lives of my friends and classmates. I would like to thank the businesses and people that helped make our weekend a success. My parents, Gary and Louise Sroufe, opened their home to myself, Ronda Buettner Jenkins, Mel Stant Line and Beth Poling Bergfeld on Thursday evening for dinner. We prepared all the prizes for our raffle/auction and enjoyed an evening of food and fun. Thanks to classmate Penny Pimpas Gerdeman and her family who provided a room where we enjoyed a nice visit and good food after the DJHS Homecoming Game on Friday. It was great to catch up and celebrate a Wildcat victory. Saturday, we enjoyed a fabulous evening of cocktails and dinner. The kitchen and wait staff was top notch and our meal was fantastic! A big thank you to Cammy Miller who helped set up the evening for us. Our centerpieces were beautiful fresh flower arrangements designed by Jessica Casemier Rudasill. These arrangements were delivered to local nursing home at the end of the evening for the residents to enjoy. Sunday morning, a few of us met for coffee and brunch. The food was great. A big thank you to my partners in crime, Ronda Buettner Jenkins and Bonnie Hohlbein, for their efforts in putting together the reunion. It truly was a joint effort and we had fun doing it. Thank you to all the Delphos businesses, classmates and everyone who helped make our weekend one to remember. Terri Sroufe Christensen

and it remains a burning regret in your gut. Hopefully, we learn from our mistakes and the next time goes better. Some people never learn. They continue with the insanity. There are things we can change or do over. We can work at becoming better people, better friends, better sons and daughters, better spouses, better mothers, etc. They say history repeats itself and we need to learn from the past so the outcome the second time around is perhaps a bit more favorable. I think its the learning part thats important. You just have to be willing and see the pattern to break it. Its easy to point the finger of blame but at the end of the day, if we dont learn so the next time is better, all is for naught.

WASHINGTON In trying to understand the Republican Partys internal battles, it helps to think of Michael and Sonny. Corleone, that is. On one side we have Sonny the hot-headed, impulsive, shoot-now-take-names-later son of Don Corleone. On Capitol Hill, he personifies the tea party followers who would rather die on principle than live to win a later day. On the other side, we have Michael the cooler-headed son and intellectual strategist. On the Hill, Michael represents the so-called establishment legislators who understand the way forward but thus far have been reluctant to pull the trigger. Thats a metaphor for all those literalists out there who may feel compelled to issue fresh gun- control imperatives. It means to take necessary, if unpleasant, action. Before action, however, there should be a plan, which has been demonstrably missing in recent weeks. Had there been a strategic, long-view plan rather than a series of tactical blunders, Republicans might now be basking in the realization of a dream: Obamacare is a hot mess. Remember the train

Godfather IV
Point of View
wreck Republicans kept promising? Well, guess what. Its happening. The train is wrecking. And yet, rather than popping open the champagne as the Obamacare website crashes in a glut of glitches, Michael and Sonny are having a staring contest. Its as though Republicans didnt have faith in their own prognostications. Meanwhile, almost two weeks after the government shutdown, polls are showing a shift in Democrats favor. Not only do fewer Americans view Republicans in a positive light (28 percent, according to Gallup) but theyre becoming more, not less, approving of Obamacare. While Republicans were nudging the can up the road on the debt ceiling, approval for Obamacare leapt up 7 points, according to a new NBC/Wall Street Journal polls. Great job, Teddy! That would be Ted Cruz,

Texas senator who KATHLEEN PARKER the grabbed headlines by filibus-

Moderately confused

tering for 21 hours against Obamacare. Cruz is neither Michael nor Sonny, but is the star of his own movie. Hes Ted bin Laden the guy who hands out suicide vests and then goes to lunch. The family clash between the Corleone brothers is about to become bloodier, though it doesnt have to. What needs to happen is for certain parties to become wiser and to absorb this simple truth: You cannot govern if you cannot win. Tea-party warriors may prefer to perish on principle, but perish they will. And, if something doesnt change fast and soon, the fear is that theyll take down the House with them. Forget the Senate in 2014. And forget the White House for the foreseeable future. Unless, that is, the hardright suicide flame throwers can be neutralized or converted. The latter isnt likely when the echo chamber cheers them on. And while organizations such as Heritage Action are grading legislators on their conservative performance. The threat of facing a primary challenge in their districts from someone even loonier keeps many in lockstep with Sonny. Thus, the only alternative is a systematic, strategic purge of the GOPs Sonny side. (Sonny Side Down?) Rational conservatives who understand that governing requires compromise, not just winning, need to form their own groups to first protect their reasonable legislators and then actively recruit and elect strong, likable candidates who can win general elections. They need to create their own scorecards to grade the obstructionists. If Republicans can pull this off, then they can (maybe) keep the House and (just maybe) take the Senate. Then, with a clear mandate from the people, they can have their way with Obamacare. Theoretically, they could repeal or use their strength in numbers to improve it and also move forward on entitlements and tax reform in ways that most sensible Americans would support. See PARKER, page 10

DEAR EDITOR: Putnam County residents: On Nov. 5, voters in Putnam County will have the opportunity to approve a levy to provide funds to Putnam County EMS. PCEMS provides a wide range of education and transportation services to local citizens, in addition to life-saving care for the seriously ill and injured. This service has touched many lives and has helped to form a solid base for the continued growth of our communities and is truly a great asset to our county. Putnam County EMS has significant impact on our communitys quality of life, so we encourage you to vote YES on Nov. 5 in support of the EMS levy. Robert Benroth, Auditor Teresa Lammers, Clerk of Courts Terrence Recker, Engineer Gary Lammers, Prosecuting Attorney Cathy Recker, Recorder Michael Chandler, Sheriff Tracy Warnecke, Treasurer Travis Jerwers, Commissioner John Love, Commissioner Vincent Schroeder, Commissioner DEAR EDITOR: Putnam County: Please vote YES for the Putnam County EMS levy. On Feb. 6, 2011, I became a survivor thanks in large part to Putnam County EMS. While passing through Columbus Grove, I experienced a sudden onset of cardiac arrest. My husband stopped at a local business where bystanders began CPR while Columbus Grove EMS rapidly responded to provide advance life support. All of these people played a part in the Chain of Survival that saved my life. If any one of those links would not have been there or been delayed in responding, my story would have a drastically different ending. Unfortunately, not every cardiac arrest, stroke or accident can have a positive outcome like mine did. But we can make sure all the necessary tools are in place so more of those good outcomes are possible. The rapid response and trained bystanders were critical to my survival. Voting YES on the levy will help in both of those areas by: increasing EMS volunteer interest by giving a $2/hour raise for those on runs, hiring more full-time EMTs to help the volunteers and provide money for CPR and First Aid classes. I spent several years as a member of Ottawa EMS working with caring EMTs all over Putnam County, but it wasnt until my incident that I realized what an impact this wonderful EMS system can have in the lives of the residents in our county. Please help keep Putnam County EMS strong by voting YES on Nov. 5. Linda Llewellyn Ottawa DEAR EDITOR: Vote Yes for the EMS. Putnam County EMS is placing a tax levy on the November ballot to help hire additional full-time EMTs and paramedics. Why, you ask? Because volunteer squads have all but gone away. Up until 1998, PCEMS was 100 percent volunteer. Recent changes in the economy and the aging of our volunteers has made it necessary to employ additional full-time EMTs and paramedics. PCEMS has been self-sufficient for many years and has never gone to the voters for operating monies, until now. The state requires hours and hours of continuing education which in turn puts a time crunch on the volunteer who tries to maintain a full-time job, family and social life. Fifteen years ago, Putnam County EMS took a leap of faith and created the Medic 300 program. In 1998, Steve Odenweller, PCEMS Coordinator, was looking to the future for the improvement of emergency care for the people of Putnam County and he continues to enhance that idea every year since. I trust that Mr. Odenweller once again has the best interest of Putnam County when he asks the voters for money. Do yourself, your family and your friends a favor by voting YES for the EMS on Nov. 5. Joann Gerdeman, The Original Medic 300

Jays grind out 20-point MAC grid win Jeffcats remain unbeaten
By JIM METCALFE Staff Writer jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com DELPHOS It may not have been pretty football on a beautiful fall Friday night. Still, a wins a win for St. Johns head football coach Todd Schulte as he described his teams 28-8 Midwest Athletic Conference victory over Fort Recovery on Homecoming night at Stadium Park. We came into the game figuring we needed four wins to be able to play on week 11 and we got the first. It may not have been pretty but its still a win, Schulte added. We just didnt seem to be in the game emotionally and that is surprising considering its Homecoming. The Blue Jays (3-4, 3-2 MAC) rolled up 367 yards of total offense, 323 on the ground on 49 rushes. Senior tailback Tyler Jettinghoff amassed 199 yards on 27 totes, while junior quarterback Nick Martz added 72 yards on 13 totes and senior fullback Luke MacLennan 64 yards on six rushes. A 37-yard Cole Hull return on the opening kickoff put the Indians (3-4, 1-4) in business at the Jays 49. They did gain the 27 but on 4th-and-3, Kyle Schroer on a halfback pass missed an open receiver for an incompletion. The Jays garnered one first down but had to punt. The Indians moved from the 30 to the hosts 32 in seven plays but a pair of penalties (15 yards) eventually stymied the drive and an incompletion on fourth-and-7 gave the ball back to the Blue and Gold. The Jays drove 68 yards in five plays to get on the board. At the Recovery 45, Jettinghoff, in the short shotgun set, ran a straight sweep to the right, cut up off tackle and was untouched down the sideline. Ben Wrasman tacked on the conversion for a 7-0 edge Stammen picked off a deep pass from Martz at the host 45. Five plays hence at the 11, Sheffer threw a fade pass to the left side to Stammen in the end zone and he came up with the catch with 5:35 left. Sheffer threw the conversion pass to Kyle Schroer for the 28-8 score. The Jays recovered a pooched short kickoff at the 43. They gained the visitor 39 in six plays but on 4th-and-4, in punt formation, upback Jettinghoff was stopped short of the first down at the 40. An Indian incomplete pass on fourth down all but ended the contest. St. Johns visits Versailles Friday; Fort Recovery takes on Minster.

Strong 2nd half leads Big Green over Rangers

By BOB WEBER DHI Correspondent news@delphosherald.com OTTOVILLE Friday night, usually reserved for area football games, found two teams squaring off in a non-league boys soccer match. The New Knoxville Rangers traveled to take on the Big Green on Senior Night at the Ottoville Sports Complex. After a scoreless tie in the first 40 minutes, the Big Green outscored the Rangers 2-1 in the second half to come away with the win. Seniors Alex Horstman, Lucus Maag, Jordan Kelch and Jochem Gregor Johannes Van Der Sluijs (exchange student from the Netherlands) were honored, along with their parents, before the contest. The first half saw both teams testing the others defense as Horstman and Maag for the Big Green fired five shots on-goal for the home squad. The Rangers countered with aggressive play on both ends and had two excellent opportunities on-goal by seniors KV Mooney and Ben Kuck. The Big Greens defense led by Kelch and junior Joe Van Oss kept the Rangers from finding the back of the net throughout the half. After 40 minutes of play, it was scoreless at the break. As good teams and, more importantly, good coaches do at halftime, they make adjustments and sometimes challenge their teams play. Big Green head coach Eric Gerker, who recently notched the 100th win of his career, must have got his teams attention during the 10-minute halftime as the home squad took the field very determined to not send out the seniors on a losing note. It was the Rangers, however, that drew first blood on the evening as Kuck found himself open in front of the Big Green goal and sent a shot into the left side of the net, giving the visitors a 1-0 lead. As the old rule states - if you dont succeed the first time, try, try again. Nothing could have been truer for the Big Greens Horstman as he delivered shot after shot at the Rangers senior goalie Dean Frankenberg. At the 25:01 mark, Horstman finally beat Frankenberg and got his team on the scoreboard, tying the game at 1-1. Maag was not going to let his fellow senior score the only goal on Senior Night. At the 23:03 mark, the Big Green sent a forwarding pass downfield towards the Rangers goal and it became apparent that it would be a foot race between Frankenberg and Maag. With the goal exposed, Maag got to the ball first and chipped a shot rolling towards the goal to give the Big Green their second goal on the evening and their first lead on the night, 2-1. That lead was preserved over the final 20-plus minutes, giving the Big Green and their seniors a win on senior night. The Big Green outshot the Rangers 9-3. Ottoville (11-3-1) will take on Kalida Monday night in a rescheduled Putnam County League match at home starting at 7 p.m. New Knoxville (4-10-2) will start tournament play at Lima Stadium Tuesday night (7:30 p.m.) against Lima Temple Christian. Goals - New Knoxville - (Ben) Kuck, Ottoville - Horstman, Maag Saves - New Knoxville - Frankenberg (7), Ottoville - Markward (2)

COLUMBUS GROVE Jefferson traveled 30 minutes east to Columbus Grove to go head-to-head with the Bulldogs in Northwest Conference gridiron action Friday. The Wildcats remained perfect (7-0, 5-0 NWC) with a 42-28 triumph. The Cats jumped out to a quick 7-0 lead on their first drive with a 41-yard touchdown run from senior Zavier Buzard, set up by a 27-yard run by Jordan McCann along the right sideline. Grove (1-6, 0-4) struck back immediately on its first drive on a quarterback draw from midfield. Wildcat returner Tyler Mox seemed to grab some of the momentum back for Delphos, returning the ensuing kickoff to the 50. Grove appeared to have no answer for the Jefferson running attack as the Red and White marched down the field again, keeping the ball on the ground. After drawing the Bulldog defense in with nine rushing attempts, Jefferson quarterback Austin Jettinghoff connected with Mox for a 13-yard diving touchdown reception. Kicker Kurt Wollenhaupt booted the following kickoff into the end zone for his first touchback of the season; Grove took over from its own 20. The Wildcats haulted the Bulldog offense, forcing a 3-and-out. Jefferson took control at the 36 and wasted no time in finding the end zone again. Jettinghoff hooked up from long distance with receiver Trevor Dudgeon for a 54-yard gain to end the first. Buzard crossed the goalline on the first play of the second quarter just four plays after the huge pass play at the end of the first, giving the Cats a 21-7 advantage. Another touchback gave the Dogs control at the 20. The defenses took control and forced five straight punts. This weeks defensive emphasis was very similar to last weeks; we knew we were going to have to play good assignment football against Groves option. In the first half,our safety started to cheat up, which set up for a few big pass plays over the top. Were going to look at it on film and work on playing better at assignment football as we prepare for next Friday night against Montpelier, stated a contented Jefferson coach Bub Lindeman. Columbus Grove capitalized on a long pass play, scoring on a 39-yard pitch-and-catch to David Bogart. Receiving the following kickoff at the 35, Delphos proceeded to execute its 2-minute drill with no success. Both teams entered the locker room at the half as Jefferson clung to a surprisingly close 21-14 lead. Delphos began the second half on defense. Groves first possession ended quickly after being shut out in three plays and being forced to punt. The punt was muffed but picked up by Mox, who weaved his way through and broke multiple tackle attempts by the Bulldog special teams. After avoiding the last line of defenses, Mox took the ball 68 yards to the house. The momentum carried over to the ensuing kickoff as Josh Kroeger stripped and recovered the ball from Grove returner Baily Clement to give the Cats the ball in great field position. Despite the small amount of yards needed to score, Jefferson was forced to attempt a field goal from the 20 but missed the try. Grove took over and proceeded to get within 28-20 a 1-possession score on a 3-yard touchdown run from Joey Warnecke, set up by a long pass play from Riley Brubaker. Columbus Grove went for the ball again, trying its hand at an onside kick. Mike Cline for Jefferson fielded the kick at the 45 to set up the Red and White offense. The Cats methodically moved the ball down the field, eating up the rest of the time in the third stanza. Within the first minute of the last period, Buzard tacked on another six points for the Jeffcats with his third touchdown of the game, a 1-yard run. After the PAT, Jefferson gained an extra 7-point cushion, now leading 35-20. Grove had an answer as Brubaker hit Bogart for a 42-yard touchdown. After the successful 2-point conversion, the Dogs were down by just one score. Buzard returned the following kickoff to the 22. The Grove defense forced Delphos into a 3-and-out, with Jettinghoff punting the ball down to the Grove 22. Grove spread the field, knowing that the clock was not on their side. Linebacker Ross Thompson recorded a key tackle for loss to end the Bulldog advance. Grove punted away and Jefferson took over at the 45. During the play, a major penalty was called against Columbus Grove for a personal foul. The following play resulted in a similar conflict. I am extremely proud of our team and how they handled themselves tonight. This was the first dogfight of the season for us and I have to give props to our seniors to keep our team under control and finish out the game, Lindeman added. Jefferson held its composure and finished out the game, adding an exclamation point and upping the score to 42-28 on a 35-yard TD rush by Buzard. After a final stand by the Jefferson D, ending in an interception by Josh Teman, the Cats set up the victory formation and ran out the clock. Both teams will be on the road Friday: Jefferson at the Montpelier Locomotives (7 p.m.) and Grove at Paulding. JEFFERSON 42, COLUMBUS GROVE 28

See the stats at delphosherald.com

Everybody all five of us was at or above .500 last week. Regular Bob Weber was 10-2 (5-1 college, 5-1 pros) to soar to 42-18 (23-7 and 19-11). I and Guest Picker 1 Mike Wulfhorst went 9-3: I was 4-2 and 5-1 moving my marks to 35-25 (19-11, 16-14) and he was JIM METCALFE COLLEGE GEORGIA: The Dawgs simply keep finding ways to win despite injuries. SOUTH CAROLINA: I almost picked the Hogs but methinks Clowney is going to be mad as a hornet, no matter what he claims. LSU: Florida has a backup quarterback; Bayeaux Bengals have a potential All-American in Mettenberger. OREGON: Could be the best game of the week and likely the highest-scoring. Quackers not missing a beat without Mr. Kelly. OKLAHOMA: Fool me once, shame on you; twice, shame on you. No more, Mack and the Longhorns. WISCONSIN: Two words, sort of - OSU hangover. PRO: DALLAS: RGIII may be ready to explode but hasnt yet. You cant fix horrible defense in two weeks. INDIANAPOLIS: Rivers returned to normal last week against the hated Raiders. Andrew Luck makes his MNF debut a winning one. NEW ORLEANS: Patriots defensive line beat up and Gronk becoming a soap opera. Brady can only do so much. DETROIT: Lions defensive line causes all kinds of havoc for Brandon Weeden. BALTIMORE: Two more words for you Clay Matthews. He isnt there to worry about. CAROLINA: Cassell starting for Six Rulers. Enough written. DAVE BONINSEGNA College:

6-0 and 3-3. Regular Dave Boninsegna was 8-4 (4-2 and 4-2) to better his record to 34-26 (18-12, 16-14). Second GP Erin Cox made her debut at 6-6 (3-3, 3-3). The GPs overall are 60-47 (31-22, 29-25). the Saints knock off the Pats. Detroit: The Cleveland Browns are expected to look to quarterback Brandon Weeden to lead them the rest of the way. The Detroit Lions will be without Calvin Johnson but they should still prevail. Green Bay at Baltimore; Joe Flacco wont have to worry about Clay Matthews. Aaron Rodgers will get no such break against Terrell Suggs. Still, I am picking the Ravens to get the loss. Minnesota: This could mark the final game before Josh Freeman takes over for the Vikings, while Carolina is counting on Cam Newton to turn things around. Home team gets the win. BOB WEBER College: GEORGIA The Bulldogs have a rash of injuries that worry me in key positions but I feel the Tigers still dont stack up with traditional powers in the SEC. SOUTH CAROLINA - Hey, Coach Bret Bielema; hows that move from the Big Ten to SEC working out for you?. LSU - Gators have a great defense; however, the Tigers have a high-powered offense with weapons all over the field. OREGON - Going with the Ducks and look forward to see Lee Corso dancing with the Ducks on Game Day Saturday morning. OKLAHOMA - Sooners offense powerful; Longhorns defense bad. WISCONSIN - Hats off to the Wildcats last week against the Buckeyes. If they think Carlos Hyde was a handful, just wait for the Badgers backfield and stud wide receiver Jared Abbrederis. NFL: DALLAS - The Cowboys are simply

PIGSKIN PICKS

They both return this week. Here are the Games: College: Missouri at Georgia; South Carolina at Arkansas; Florida at LSU; Oregon at Washington; Oklahoma vs. Texas at Dallas; Northwestern

at Wisconsin. NFL: Washington at Dallas; Indianapolis at San Diego (Monday); New Orleans at New England; Detroit at Cleveland; Green Bay at Baltimore; Carolina at Minnesota. faces his first stiff SEC test on the road, while LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger faces a challenging test against arguably the best defensive backfield in college. I am taking LSU in a close one. Oregon: Oregon has won 9 straight in this series and flying high right now. Husky senior QB Kieth Price has had great season. I look for the Ducks to continue to roll. Oklahoma: The Red River Shootout probably the biggest Rivalry in all of football. Well, a 1-sided rivalry lately and that trend will continue. Wisconsin: Another Big 10 snoozefest. I look for Northwestern to have a letdown after their heart-breaking loss to the Luckeyes and for Wisconsin to ground and pound them into submission. NFL: Dallas: Owner and de facto Head coach Jerry Jones leads Dallas into this matchup hoping Tony Romo can rebound from his interception at the end of the Denver game. Washington had a bye but I dont think it will help. San Diego: San Diego is a team you really dont know what youre going to get. The Colts are coming off a huge win against Seattle. The Colts should probably win but I think the jet lag will get to them. New Orleans: The Saints come rolling into New England with a 5-0 record, while the Patriots are looking to rebound. I am going with the Saints. Detroit: Cleveland fans can always say wait till next year and this will continue after the huge 49-3 defeat the Lions will hand out to you. Green Bay: The Ravens have not looked like the defending Super Bowl champions. The Packers will take this game 21-10. Carolina: Matt Cassell gets his 2nd start of the year for Minnesota against Cam Newton and the Panthers. Newton finally gets it going against the depleted Minnesota secondary.

Georgia: This will be a real test for Georgia as they go into a seemingly easy game against Missourti injury-ridden. Despite that, I think the Bulldogs still get the victory. South Carolina: The Jadeveon Clowney watch continues. Even if he doesnt play, South Carolina has enough to beat Arkansas. LSU: The Tigers have mostly cruised behind the offense. Florida will give them a test but the Tigers still get the win. Oregon: This should prove to be Oregons biggest test to date. The Ducks are looking for their 10th straight win over Washington; they should continue the streak Saturday. Oklahoma: Oklahoma has averaged 54 points against the Longhorns their last two meetings; the Texas defense has been fire-the-coordinator-after-two-games bad. Oklahoma wins big again. Northwestern: The Wildcats have lost the last two meetings at Camp Randall by a combined 79 points but I will take Northwestern. NFL: Washington: Dallas tries to avoid a third consecutive loss and third in a row to the visiting Redskins, who are hoping to see RG3 return to form following their bye. Dallas drops their fourth in a row. Indianapolis: The Colts looked very impressive after their 34-28 win over previously-unbeaten Seattle. The Chargers lost to a weak Oakland Raiders squad; should be another win for the Colts. New Orleans: After the Bengals ended Tom Bradys TD streak, Drew Brees still leads in that category. He continues that as

the better team and they are 17-4 against Washington at home since 1992. INDIANAPOLIS - We could be watching the next Peyton in ANDREW LUCK. NEW ORLEANS - By far, on paper, the best game of the weekend; Im going with Drew Brees. CLEVELAND - The Lions are better on offense but injuries to Calvin Johnson and Reggie Bush and Stafford getting sacked a lot last week make me go with a really good Browns defense. BALTIMORE - Im going with the Ravens in an upset; the loss of Clay Matthews is huge. MINNESOTA - Regardless of who plays QB for the Vikings, they still have Adrian Peterson. ERIN COX COLLEGE Georgia: I think, and more importantly, my dad thinks that Georgia will have enough to stay on top of Missouri this week. South Carolina: Clowney has people talking this week and its going to get him playing, I think. LSU: LSUs offense will prove enough to beat the Gators this week. Oregon: I like ducks so Im going with the Ducks. Oklahoma: I really dont watch much college football but ESPNs Top 25 overview says that Oklahoma is the clear winner here. I hope they dont let me down. Wisconsin: Wisconsin is coming off a bye, Northwestern off a loss to the Luckeyes, so I like Wisconsin here. NFL Dallas: Im always faithful to my Cowboys and I really think they should win

this game, if the defense shows up that is Romo proved that he can give us the points needed to win against the best quarterback in the league. Indianapolis: Indy got a big win against the Seahawks last week while San Diego lost to a team they shouldnt have. I think Luck is looking good and hell lead his team for another big win. New England: I still dont like the Patriots but I think Tom Brady is embarrassed by his performance against the Bengals and has such a big head that hes going to need to make up for the loss in a big way. This should be a close game, so Im excited to watch it. Detroit: After a good start for Cleveland this season, the loss of Hoyer last week is going to put that to an end real quick. Green Bay: Green Bay got an easy win last week, so maybe that will boost their confidence this week. Minnesota: The Panthers didnt have a good showing last week and the Vikings are coming fresh off a bye. The Vikings will take the win on this one. M I K E WULFHORST College: Georgia: After the dominating performance I put on last week with my picks I am surprised that Jim let me come back and do it again (Editors Note: We tied and Bob won!!!). Georgia is ripe for the upset with all the key injuries and Missouri is one of the hottest teams in the SEC but the Bulldogs will show they are still a class above. South Carolina: Arkansas is 3-3, with three straight losses. The Gamecocks have won three straight. I feel Connor Shaw and the South Carolina offense is going to roll. LSU: Gator Quarterback Tyler Murphy

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
excitement may be enticing, but it will also be emotional and costly. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Stick to what and whom you know. An investment may sound good, but it isnt likely to deliver whats being promised. Do your research, and youll be praised for your findings. MONDAY, OCTOBER 14, 2013 Accentuate what you do best in the coming months. Express your feelings at home and make needed alterations to your living space, but dont go overboard. Spending should be kept to a minimum -use your innovative insights to be creative while saving money. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Set the record straight when it comes to how you want things done, at home and in the workplace. Change is imperative and should be initiated before you find yourself hemmed in. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Emotional matters will surface; dealing with them quickly will help avoid a scene. Be prepared to use a bit of force if necessary. A different approach will keep you in the lead. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Positive change is heading your way. Keep your chin up and your finger on the pulse of events. Participation will be key when trying to impress someone you want to spend more time with. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Stand up and be counted. Persistence will result in being handed the reins of leadership. Dont let past experience frighten you from taking on more responsibility. A positive change will raise your earning potential. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Apply your knowledge and experience to a job youve been given, and you will excel. Someone you meet will change your outlook and your immediate future. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Personal matters must be handled with integrity and, above all, honesty. There will be no room for vague or misleading information. If you want to take advantage of an opportunity, build on your reputation. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Shy away from anyone who appears to be holding back information. Step into the spotlight and take control of whatever situation you face, but do so with compassion and understanding. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -Follow your heart and your dreams. Live in the moment and enjoy what life has to offer. Participate in activities conducive to building a close bond with friends and family. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Disillusionment will set in if you believe everything you hear. Read between the lines, especially when dealing with affairs of the heart. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Get out and take time to play. Entertainment or traveling to an unfamiliar destination will brighten your day. Emotional encounters will stimulate your senses. Take action and follow through. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Play it safe when it comes to domestic affairs. Listen carefully and prepare to make whatever changes are necessary to keep the peace. Make sure you think things through carefully before taking a plunge. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Shoot for the stars when it comes to making valuable connections. How you express your desires and ideas will capture the attention of someone willing to help.

HI AND LOIS

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2013 Dont let instability worry you in the year ahead. A new beginning is overdue, and discovering new ways to use your talents will lead to an interesting future. Gravitate toward positive people and re-establish your position among your peers. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- A last-minute change of plans must not throw you off course. Follow through with your agenda and do your best to make your home and family life in tune with your pursuits. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Look at every angle before you make changes that may invite opposition. An emotional situation can stand between you and your destination. Make adjustments if you want to achieve your goals. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Keep everything out in the open to avoid being blamed for something you didnt do. A promise isnt likely to be honored. Get an agreement in writing. A domestic change looks promising. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Productivity must not be squashed by an emotional outburst. Listen if someone has a complaint, but dont let it slow your progress. Overreacting will result in a costly mistake. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Listen to whats being said and do your best to please and satisfy someone you love, but dont let anyone restrict your freedom or limit what you can do. Follow your heart. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- An emotional situation will be expensive if you havent made the necessary adjustments to protect yourself. Underhandedness can be expected. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Getting together with old friends or colleagues will help put you back on track emotionally, mentally and physically. A favor will be granted and will greatly help your cause. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Follow through with your longheld plans. A partnership will be enhanced if you discuss issues that could alter your lifestyle. An open house will lead to praise and compliments. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Take advantage of an opportunity to display what you have to offer, and you will receive an attractive proposal. A past partnership will not live up to your expectations. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -Enjoyment is the name of the game. Try something new and exciting, and you will begin an adventure that could lead to great things. A philosophy you discover will fit your current needs. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Arguments will be a waste of time. Keep a low profile and a tight grip on your wallet. Adventure and

Parker
(Continued from page 4) Storming the barricades may be fine at times, but its helpful to also have a plan. Remember the day after shock and awe? Now what? This is essentially where the GOP finds itself today. It shut down the government and now what? It tried to defund the un-defundable (Obamacare was already funded), and now people are gravitating toward the train wreck. The GOPs delaying tactic, though justifiable, came too late in the game. Finally, Republicans failed to capitalize on Obamacares own embarrassing launch. Now what? Painful though it may be to witness, it may be time for Sonny to take a drive through the toll plaza. Maybe he could give Ted bin Laden a lift. (Thats a metaphor, too.) Kathleen Par ker s email address is kathleenparker@washpost.com.

Kampwirth
(Continued from page 1) With homework due each day and having soccer practice, its sometimes hard to get it all done, she said, but she is still enjoying the experience. In addition to visiting other places around the state and the US, Kampwirth has enjoyed spending time in Delphos and learning about her host city. She loved going to Canal Days and said her favorite part was watching Paul Krendl with Krendl & Company perform the magic show. Despite Delphos being smaller, Verl does not have as many fast food restaurants as Delphos, Kampwirth said. The food is too greasy, but she has found some new fast food restaurants she does like in Delphos. Kampwirth misses her family, but said she is not homesick and cant believe how much time has passed already. Im sad Im only here for five months and Im going home soon, she said.

Archives
(Continued from page 2) Delphos native Vongia Kaskel, graduate of the dental hygiene program at Lima Technical College, was one of five graduates recognized for outstanding service and dedication to their profession during National Dental Hygiene Week, Oct. 16-22. Kaskel, a 1987 graduate, works as a dental hygienist for Dr. Jack Spratt, Spencerville. 50 Years Ago 1963 Ten Delphos area men, who recently returned from a successful hunting and fishing trip in Wyoming, are looking forward to making the same trip next year. John Pitsenbarger, Norm Brewer, Melvin (Bud) Fortener, John Helmkamp, Ed Fry, Don Moore, George Moore, Hank Carder and Gene Buettner each had an antelope within the first day and a half. Bob Liggett didnt hunt but he helped drive the animals from cover. Four Delphos and area Senior Scouts will represent Appleseed Ridge Council at the 14th annual Senior Scout Conference Oct. 19 in the Pick Carter Hotel, Cleveland. Attending will be Kathy Giller and Alida Raabe of Delphos; Toni Hover, Lima; and Nancy Enslen, Findlay. Spencerville Highs Bearcats edged out the Bulldogs of Columbus Grove, 12-8, in a closely fought battle before an enthusiastic homecoming crowd of 2,000 in Columbus Grove Friday night. Statistically speaking, the game was remarkably closely played. Grove chalked up 195 yards on the ground and 76 in the air for 271. Spencerville blasted 177 yards on the ground and 122 in the air, for 299. 75 Years Ago 1938 The Delphos city council in session Tuesday night passed the city skating rink ordinance under suspension of rules. The ordinance was passed to regulate the operation of the roller skating rink which is being constructed in the old Johnson machine shop on North Washington Street. Eddie Kane of Lima, well known skating rink operator, has taken a lease on the building and work of preparing the building for the new business is now under way. Delphos Kiwanians and their ladies enjoyed a most pleasant meeting at the Beckman Hotel Tuesday night. Carl V. Weygandt, chief justice of the supreme court of Ohio, was the guest speaker. Musical entertainment was afforded by the Venedocia male quartet, composed of J. Alford Breese, Osborne Jones, J. E. Morgan and Russell Evans. The Secretaries defeated the Treasurers in the K of C Bowling League Tuesday night by a score of 1,944 to 1,867. The high score of the evening was rolled by Dr. Robert Brown on the Treasurers team. He cracked the maples for a 187 in the third game.
