Fuerst ready to
head elementaries
BY MIKE FORD
mford@delphosherald.com
DELPHOS With a rich
background in education, vet-
eran teacher and administrator
Mark Fuerst, 58, will forge
new ground in the Delphos
City Schools this fall. When
the academic year begins,
the districts two elementa-
ry schools will share him as
principal.
Fuerst was principal at
Franklin Elementary School
from 1984-1989. He has
recently held the same posi-
tion at Landeck Elementary
School, where he also taught.
He expects to spend more time
at the larger facility because
there is more to manage in
Delphos than in Landeck.
I will spend most of my
time at Franklin because it has
around 420 students, where
Landeck has about 130. There
are more people and more
things going on at Franklin,
so I will be there most of the
time just by sheer numbers,
he said.
Leaving the classroom
behind will reduce interaction
with students, so Fuerst wants
to schedule some play time.
I will need to create a
schedule whereby Landeck
teachers know what days and
times of day when I will be
there so they know when to
run something by me or get
my opinion on something or
handle things that come up
that I need to be aware of or
make a decision on. I have a
great secretary there in Becky
Berelsman and she can han-
dle a lot of things. Im sure
we will be corresponding a
lot because I am only a phone
call or e-mail away, he said.
I also want to schedule it so
I can be down there and be
with the kids when theyre
out on the playground. I dont
want to lose contact with the
kids.
He expects overseeing
both schools to be less chal-
lenging than dealing with
things coming down from
the state.
We will work to main-
tain our excellent rating and
make sure our teachers have
what they need to be success-
ful in the classrooms, which
are a positive atmosphere for
everybody, he explained.
Damon Ulm expressed
that he missed that in his
two years as Franklins prin-
cipal. He will get back into
the classroom by teaching at
Landeck and Fuerst is glad
to have him there for various
reasons.
There are more male
teachers at the elementary
level than there used to be
and I think its important for
the kids to see him. I think its
important for them to have a
male role model and Damons
big enough to lift a truck, so
he can also help the other
teachers if something needs
lifted or if the lights go out
and a breaker switch needs
flipped, he said.
Fuerst
We will work
to maintain our
excellent rating
and make sure
our teachers have
what they need to
be successful in
the classrooms,
which are a posi-
tive atmosphere
for everybody.

The 2011 Allen County Fair Born and Raised Market Goat Grand Champion is Megan
Joseph, right, and Jenni Ditto is Reserve Grand Champion.
BY STACY TAFF
staff@delphosherald.com
LIMA Delphos swept the Allen County
Fair Born and Raised Market Goat com-
petition with Megan Joseph taking Grand
Champion and Jenni Ditto taking Reserve
Grand Champion.
This is the second year in a row 15-year-
old Joseph has been Grand Champion in the
Allen County Junior Fair Born and Raised
Market Goat competition. The key to success,
she says, is working the goat toward a propor-
tional physique.
I spend a lot of time with my goats
because a lot goes into their care, she said.
When you feed them, you have to make sure
you feed them enough to keep them strong
but not so much that they get fat. Judges dont
like fat; they like muscle.
Joseph, a member of the Allen County
Does and Kids 4-H group, says striking the
right balance with exercise is also important.
I run the goats a lot but not too much.
You have to be careful not to stress it because
it might lose weight, she said. I really work
on the muscles and try to keep everything bal-
anced out so the goat is proportional, which is
why I think I won. I also showed it off very
well. Ive been showing goats for six years
and after a while you just know what to do
and what not to do.
Goats are notorious for being wily crea-
tures, so it stands to reason they would be
troublesome in the show arena. Joseph says
this isnt necessarily the case.
Theyre difficult to control when youre
first starting out, she said. You have to put
a lot of work and time into training them and
even after youve trained them, theyll still act
up in the ring occasionally. You just have to
be patient and remember its an animal and is
always going to be unpredictable. This year,
I have two market wethers Im showing and
also four breeding projects.
I just want to thank my parents because
they really support me, Joseph said of her
parents, Kim and Norm Elwer. Without them
I wouldnt have started showing goats.
Joseph is a student at St. Johns and
was also named this years Junior Fair Goat
Queen.
Ditto, 11, has shown goats each of the
three years shes been in 4-H.
This is also Dittos second year as Reserve
Champion.
My favorite part is getting to spend time
with my goats, she said. I get to spend about
3-4 hours a day with them and thats my
favorite part. Theyre funny.
While she has fun raising them, Ditto says
its not all fun and games.
Shaving them is the hardest part, she
added. Showing them isnt hard.
Ditto, daughter of Doug and Janice Ditto,
also shows dogs.

The locusts are buzzing and sounds of a
high school football game fill the air.
It must be the fall. Well, not really but for
all intents and purposes, summer is over.
What I did on my summer vacation is a
staple for a first assignment for school chil-
dren everywhere.
Little do they know, once they become
adults, oftentimes summer vacation takes on a
whole new meaning.
I am pleased with what I accomplished
this summer at home, as well as at work. As
usual, the break from school brings a host of
interesting things to cover for the newspaper.
From the Relay to three county fairs and
Fourth of July thrown in the middle, theres
plenty to do.
For the last two weeks, we have played
host to Murrays granddaughter, Claire. A
delightful 15-year-old, she brought a breath of
fresh air to the newsroom when she graced us
with her presence.
Claire spent some time in each department
and we even managed to take her to the fair.
Unfortunately, it was a morning assignment
and she didnt get to experience the rides or
so-good-its-bad fair food. I hope her mom
managed to get her back over there Friday
evening.
Claire had never been to a county fair. I
know its hard to imagine when they are a
part of your life that some people have never
experienced one.
She went through every animal barn taking
pictures. Dont miss them with the fair results
well soon publish.
So now Claire can mark county fair off
her list.
A few things I can mark off my list is get-
ting Ringo Starr Spencer his Canine Good
Citizen designation. His certificate came in
the mail last week. I find it hard it imagine
two more proud doggie parents.
I do have one small problem with the
whole thing. We both worked really hard
with him in class and at home and we dont
get any letters after our name. It hardly seems
fair. There were a lot of nights of class and
two training sessions a day to get Ringo ready
for the test.
I also got to spend some quality time with
Cameron and friends. His visit in July was
awesome. It was a long-awaited 48 hours. It
seemed to fly by.
There are many other things on my list,
too. We made a couple of trips to Michigan
to see family and friends and are looking
forward to Labor Day weekend the last
weekend of summer.
editors note:
So now I want to know what you guys did
this summer. Send pictures of your summer
activities to nspencer@delphosherald.com or
drop them off at the office. Make sure you
identify the people in the photos, what they
are doing and where they are doing it.

What i did on my summer vacation
BOISE, Idaho (AP) A
former Idaho professor who
killed himself after gunning
down a graduate student he had
recently dated was found dead
in his hotel room with six guns
and medications for bipolar dis-
order and severe anxiety, police
said.
The confirmation of reports
that Ernesto Bustamante, 31,
suffered from mental disorders
and owned a stockpile of weap-
ons was among the new details
that emerged with the release
Friday of a pair of statements,
one from police and the other
from university officials, offer-
ing the results of investigations
into the case.
Katy Benoit, 22, was shot 11
times with a .45 caliber hand-
gun outside her northern Idaho
home late Monday. Benoits
romantic relationship with the
University of Idaho professor
had recently ended after he
displayed violent tendencies,
including threatening her life
multiple times, police said.
Benoit met Bustamante last
fall when she took a psychology
course he was teaching, and by
the end of the semester they
were dating. The relationship
ended in May, after he put a gun
to her head and told her how he
would use it to kill her. She told
others he had threatened her
with a gun twice before.
Bustamante had been known
to alternately refer to himself
as a psychopathic killer and
the beast, according to police.
After the couple split, Benoit
alerted school officials that she
was becoming increasing con-
cerned for her safety and filed
a sexual harassment complaint
with the university on June 12.
Bustamante denied the allega-
tions and filed his own com-
plaint against her on July 8,
claiming defamation of char-
acter.

full-fledged test flight over
Germany.
In 1949, a violent white

launched the Mariner 2 space
probe, which flew past Venus
in Dec. 1962.

three other people, includ-
ing his 14-year-old grandson
Nicholas, were killed off the
coast of Ireland in a boat

In 1989, the first U.S.
commercial satellite rocket
was launched from Cape
Canaveral, Fla. a Delta
booster carrying a British
communications satellite, the
Marcopolo 1.

The Lincoln Highway
Buy-Way sale is over for
another year, but the high-
way itself continues to draw
roadies who like to travel
at a much slower pace and
enjoy the scenery. In fact, the
Lincoln Highway Association
has over 1,000 members from
39 states as well as 6 other
countries. Each year they
have a convention and next
year in June, it is going to be
in Canton.
At the canal museum,
we have recently redone our
Lincoln Highway display
and it now features a model
of Admiral Richard Byrds
Snow Cruiser which was built
by Kermit Stemen in 1940
when he was a senior at Elida
High School. He had seen
it pass through Gomer the
previous year and was quite
amazed and inspired.
For those who are not
familiar with the background,
the Snow Cruiser, named
the Penguin, was a huge
science lab and home on
wheels, specifically made for
Admiral Byrds expedition to
the South Pole. It was built
in Chicago and followed the
Lincoln Highway from east
of there to Mansfield, Ohio
where it took another route
to get to Boston and a wait-
ing ship. The cruiser was so
wide it took up both lanes of
the highway. It was 55 feet in
length and the tires were 10
feet tall.
In Delphos, Chief of Police
Glen Ditto issued a notice
that no one could park on
Fifth Street until the Penguin
had passed through town
on a Saturday afternoon in
October 1939. This was the
Depression Era and people
lined the streets to see the
$150,000 monstrosity.
East of Gomer, disaster
struck. The steering mecha-
nism malfunctioned and the
cruiser slid off the road into
a ditch where it stayed for
three days. During the rescue,
the crew of five stayed at the
Phelan Hotel, now Lehmanns
Furniture.
After a few other minor
problems, the cruiser eventu-
ally made it to Boston and on
to Anarctica. Unfortunately,
one final disaster occurred.
Once off the ship, the idea
was to move inland but those
10-foot-tall tires spun in place
in the snow and the cruiser
ended up sitting right where
it first landed, a case of not
having enough power. The
crew was still able to use it
for living quarters and a lab
but not as a method of trans-
portation.
The snow cruiser may
not have lived up to expecta-
tions at the South Pole but it
certainly entertained a lot of
people on its journey and it
gave one young man a great
idea for a school project.
The museum is open from
1-3 p.m. every Saturday and-
Sunday 9 a.m. to noon Each
Thursday. We are located on
the west side of Main Street
between Second nd and Third
streets and right along the
Miami-Erie Canal. Come visit
us soon.
Admiral Byrds Snow Cruiser
My lungs were burning for
air but no matter how hard I
tried to get my head above the
water all I got when I gasped
for air was a mouth full of
water. Finally I gave up and
relaxed my cramping body.
I realized that I was sinking
toward the bottom of the lake
and that I was going to die. In
desperation, I prayed a silent
prayer Jesus, help me!
I remember feeling a great
sense of peace and that I was
no longer afraid.
It was the summer of
1964. My 17-year-old cousin,
Ronnie, and his parents had
come from Vincent to visit us
at our home in Midland, Md.
It was a nice day so the
decision was made to travel
to a nearby lake. After lunch,
Ronnie and I headed for the
water to take a swim.
The account that follows
is based on the memories and
conversations that have taken
place with my parents and
Ronnie about the drowning
and that fateful day 47 years
ago
Apparently I took a cramp
while we were swimming
and Ronnie noticed that I
appeared to be struggling. At
first, he thought I was just
fooling around, but when he
could no longer see me he got
worried. He swam to shallow
water where he could stand
up and look for me. After not
being able to see me, he went
to shore and found a lifeguard
who was talking to a couple
of cute girls.
Ronnie told him that he
wasnt sure, but thought that
I might be under the water
and in trouble. The lifeguard
didnt seem to want to be
bothered, so Ronnie began
swimming and diving trying
to see if he could find me.
As the minutes passed he
became more frightened. In
desperation he went back to
the beach, grabbed the life-
guard by the arm and pulling
him toward the water said,
Listen, Im serious. I think
my cousin is somewhere out
there (pointing toward the
lake), but I cant find him!
Something in his voice and
actions must have convinced
the lifeguard that Ronnie was
serious. He began to swim
and dive trying to find me,
while Ronnie ran to the pic-
nic area to tell his parents and
mine what was going on.
I think Danny is drown-
ing! he yelled to them. My
mom began frantically run-
ning around to see if she could
find a pay phone to call for an
ambulance (there werent cell
phones back then). My dad
followed Ronnie back to the
beach. They saw the life-
guard making dive after dive
looking for me, but I was still
missing. Dad knelt down in
the sand and began to pray.
I think I felt him, the
lifeguard yelled as he took a
deep breath and dove again
beneath the surface.
Moments later, he emerged
and declared, Ive got him!
Some folks swam/ran out to
help him. They dragged my
lifeless body to the beach and
began artificial respiration.
The ambulance arrived. They
were able to get my heart and
lungs working again, but I
was un-conscious. They put
me in the ambulance (my
mom went with me) and
headed for the hospital.
No one knows for sure how
long my heart had stopped. It
had to be quite awhile. Was
it as long as 15 minutes, or
more? The doctor explained
to my parents that it was long
enough that I had most likely
suffered severe brain dam-
age. They waited and prayed
while I remained in a coma
for a few days.
When I woke up my dad
and a doctor were standing at
the side of my bed. The doctor
asked me if I knew what my
name was and who the presi-
dent of the United States was.
When I answered, Danny
and Lyndon Johnson they
both seemed pleased and very
excited.
The doctor called it a mir-
acle. My dad thanked God
for hearing and answering his
prayer. And me? I had no
clue what they were talking
about. I realized that I was in
a hospital but had no idea of
what had taken place.
In the months that fol-
lowed, I began to have
flashbacks. I remembered
the things I mentioned ear-
lier the struggle to get air,
the panic, saying the silent
prayer, the sense of peace
and something else. Whether
it was just my imagination or
actually happened, Im not
sure.
I remember, or think I do,
seeing myself on the bottom
of the lake. It was like I was
outside of my body looking
down at me I remember the
sensation of a bright light
above me. Was it the light
coming from the sky above or
was it the bright light that
people who have died and
come back try to describe?
Some people do not get the
opportunity to live and talk
about the day they drowned
or died. Im so grateful that
I have been blessed with that
privilege. I believe that God
wanted me to stay on this side
of eternity so I could com-
plete His purpose and plan
for my life which is preach
the Good News, make a
positive difference in the
lives of others, and to help
people discover and complete
their God-given destiny.
Ill close the writing of
this story by encouraging you
to remember that no matter
how desperate your situation
is you may be drowning
relationally, emotionally,
financially, physically, spiri-
tually, whatever do what
I did that day so long ago;
pray, Jesus, help me!
On the banks
of yesteryear ...

Although there were no confirmed reports of any torna-
does touching down in the Tri-County during Tuesday nights
storm, the path of destruction appeared to have been caused
by tornado-like winds. The heavy winds, rain and light hail
demolished two mobile homes and torn two more off their
foundations in Convoy. The winds also did extensive damage
to the farm of Nile Brenneman, Bliss Road, east of Delphos.

WASHINGTON (AP)
After grousing for months,
Republicans are growing more
satisfied with their choices for
president and, so far, they like
what theyre hearing from the
newest candidate, Texas Gov.
Rick Perry.
An Associated Press-GfK
poll released Friday found that
two-thirds of Republicans and
GOP-leaning independents are
pleased with the partys presi-
dential field, compared with just
half in June. And theyre pay-
ing attention, with 52 percent
expressing a great deal of
interest in the GOP nomination
fight compared with 39 per-
cent earlier this summer after
a period that saw Perry enter
the race and Michele Bachmann
win a test vote in Iowa, the
lead-off caucus state, threaten-
ing Mitt Romneys standing at
the top of the pack.
The poll shows Perry
who has never run a nation-
al campaign and is just now
introducing himself to most
people benefiting from
wall-to-wall news coverage
over the past few weeks as he
became a candidate and jostled
the until-then sleepy contest.
Just 12 percent of Republicans
and GOP-leaning independents
have a negative impression of
the Texas governor. And 63
percent of Republicans view
him in a positive light, com-
pared with 33 percent in June.
Beyond that, Republicans
didnt change their impres-
sions much about Romney.
Nearly 2 in 3 still view the for-
mer Massachusetts governor
positively, while just under a
quarter view him negatively as
he runs a cautious, methodical
campaign thats facing its first
true test in Perry.
Bachmann, the Minnesota
congresswoman who won the
Iowa straw poll, got roughly
the same marks as Romney
now that shes boosted her
national profile. Both her posi-
tive and negative ratings rose
in the two months since she
entered the contest and started
to become better known.
Broadly, the results suggest
that Republicans are coming
around to the idea that there may
be a winner in the bunch after
being less than enthusiastic for
months and even though party
elders continue to grouse that
the field lacks a candidate strong
enough to take on President
Barack Obama. As recently as
this week, New Jersey Gov.
Chris Christie, Wisconsin Rep.
Paul Ryan and former Florida
Gov. Jeb Bush again
insisted they werent running
for president despite urging
from supporters.
Sarah Palin, the GOPs
2008 vice presidential nomi-
nee, says shell announce in
late September whether she
will run.
Stay-at-home mom Jennifer
Bevington of Toledo, Ohio,
is among those Republicans
who like what they see, say-
ing: Out of the top three
Michele Bachmann, Perry and
Romney of whos running,
they should be able to come up
with a good candidate.
Mary Parish of Troy, Tenn.,
had doubted for months that
any of the candidates in the
field were strong enough to
run the country or topple
Obama. Now, the retired con-
venience store manager says:
I like Rick Perry. I think hes
a Christian, a good Christian
person. I like what he stands
for, and I think hes strong
enough to beat Obama.
News reports are given live
and the weather is given live.
Our children and grandchil-
dren live in far away places.
We hear about it as it hap-
pens. Like the earthquake
that hit in Virginia. It was felt
way up to New York, Ohio
and Detroit. The National
Cathedral in Washington, D.
C. even suffered damage to
its tower.
My granddaughter, Brenda
lives and works in Danville,
Va. Shes an audiologist. She
felt the tremor while sitting
at her desk with a patient.
Brenda said it was weird. She
said her desk vibrated and
the floor was shaking. She
heard a rumble like someone
was pounding on the roof.
Brendas fianc, Pierce,
teaches in Rocky Mount,
about 50 miles away. It was
nice weather so he was hold-
ing class outside. Some of the
students said the ground is
shaking. His school did suf-
fer some cracks. These towns
are about 4 1/2 hours from
Washington, D. C.
My neighbors, Joan and
Jim Buettner, have a grand-
daughter who just moved
to a town near Danville and
Rocky Mount. Abby is study-
ing nutrition, doing her resi-
dency in a nearby hospital.
A strange thing happened
last week-end. The Buettners
accidentally met Brenda
and Pierce at the IHOP in
Roanoke. Abby mentioned
to her dad, Dave that there
was a Putnam County car
over yonder, its a nice
bright orange. Dave men-
tioned something to Pierce
about the car. Then Brenda
came outside and Dave asked
Are you Brenda Dickman?
She was a bit startled. Then
he said I grew up with your
mom and was a good friend
with her brother. They were
all pleasantly surprised. Its a
small, small world.
Our six children all live
within seven or eight miles
of me. They all belong to
the Fort Jennings St. Joseph
Parish and all the grandkids
graduated or attend school
(shes a senior) at FJHS. Im
very grateful they all live so
close. All their activities were
at one church or one school.
Of my 20 grandchildren,
Cassie is the only one left in
high school. Two others make
their home in the country
near Fort Jennings. Another
makes his main home near
Fort Jennings but his business
takes him to Europe often
like four or five times already
in his 25 years.
One granddaughter,
Carole, lives up the road a
few miles, near Glandorf.
Carol and her husband
have helped to increase the
Schroeder population in
Putnam County. Brent works
for GROB near Bluffton.
GROB has sent him to their
home plant in Germany a few
times. Carole, Brent and the
two oldest children lived in
Bavaria for six months or so.
Brent speaks German fluently
and Carole is also pretty good
with the language. Brandon
even spent part of the first
grade in Germany. Carole did
some home schooling with
him during their visit so he
could be up with his Glandorf
classmates.
Kate Dickman and Dennis
Dobbs were married today
near Fort Jennings. He is a
native of North Dakota but
they met in Africa. They have
been living in Boston. During
her years in medical school,
Kate spend two years in
Uganda and two summers in
Kenya. Dennis was working
in Africa for Case Western
for a few years. That is how
they met
Brian Bud Dickman is a
photographer for a Maumee
advertising firm so they often
send him to California and
Florida and points in between.
Steve Dickman spent four
years in the US Navy
half of it in the submarine,
the USS Toledo. This took
him to several foreign ports
and even under the Polar Ice
Cap.
Michael is an officer in the
Air Force, after spending four
years in college. He is sta-
tioned in Florida, training to
be a navigator. He was able to
spend time in the ground crew
during an air show in Paris.
Michael also spent some time
in Iraq and Afghanistan. His
brother, Mark is a lawyer in
Denver.
So the grandchildren are
all over creation. My hus-
band and I did a lot of trav-
eling, mostly camping. Our
children got all over the USA
in a tent or camper. By the
time Tony was 16, he was
in 26 states. I have visited
48 of the 50 states never
got to Oregon or Hawaii. All
the states have a lot to offer,
but Alaska is so wide open
and free the Last Frontier.
Ive been fortunate enough to
travel to Germany and other
European countries. Its a real
thrill to step foot on the same
ground our ancestors walked
on, so many years ago.
Now we can be in Europe
in seven or eight hours. It
took our ancestors four to six
weeks of rough ocean sail-
ing to reach their new homes
in America. For many, when
they left their homeland, it
was the last time they saw
their parents or siblings. Now
we can keep in touch with
these family members by
Email or cell phone in min-
utes.
Wouldnt it be wonderful
if all the people of the world
could just live in peace?

This

That
by HELEN
KAVERMAN
WASHINGTON -- Rick
Perrys rapid lead over previ-
ous Republican front-runner
Mitt Romney was predict-
able. But it is not a good
sign for Republicans hoping
to reclaim the White House
and further highlights the cru-
cial battle within GOP circles:
Who is the godliest of us all?
Thats the mirror-mirror
question for Republicans.
Forget charisma, charm,
intelligence, knowledge and
that nuisance, foreign-policy
experience. The race of the
moment concerns which can-
didate is the truest believer.
This was always a tough
hurdle for Romney, whose
Mormonism is reflexively dis-
trusted by Southern evangeli-
cals. Even so, in the absence
of a better candidate, Romney
had a fighting chance to win
his partys support. Then
came Perry.
Talk about a perfect-storm,
composite candidate. Combine
Elmer Gantrys nose for con-
verts, Ronald Reagans folksy
confidence and Sarah Palins
disdain for the elites and
that dog hunts.
Perry doesnt just believe,
he evangelizes. He summons
prayer meetings. He reads
scripture while callers are on
hold. Not incidentally, hes a
successful governor. Perhaps
most important, hes a wall-
scaling fundraiser whose
instincts make him a force of
nature in the political land-
scape.
If youre Romney, Perry is
a nightmare thats still there in
the morning. If youre Barack
Obama, maybe not so much?
Perrys political instincts
were in evidence when he
timed his entrance into the
race just as everybody else
was trying to grab straws in
the Iowa poll. If life is high
school in adult relief, Perry
is the guy who shows up in a
truck with a winch and pulls
the car out of the ditch while
those other guys are looking
for a jack.
Whether you like his politics
or not, he emits a pheromon-
al can-do-ness. Apparently,
plenty of Republicans do like
his politics, which has much
to do with the very devil-may-
care attitude that eventually
will become Perrys cross to
bear. Gallups recent polling
shows him not just passing
Romney, but dusting him.
Among Republican voters, 29
percent now swear their alle-
giance to the Texas governor
compared to just 17 percent
for Romney.
Huddled around the
exhaust pipe are, you got it,
the jack handlers: Ron Paul
(13 percent) and Michele
Bachmann (10 percent), fol-
lowed by Herman Cain, Newt
Gingrich, Rick Santorum and
Jon Huntsman in the single
digits.
Perrys campaign strategy
is to talk only about jobs,
jobs, jobs, no matter what the
question. Thats both smart
and necessary, but jobs-jobs-
jobs isnt the money trinity
with his base. Perry already
hit that station with his prayer
rally and various dog whistles
to the congregation: Hes not
sure anyone knows how old
Earth is, evolution is just a
theory, and global warming
isnt man-made.
That we are yet again
debating evolutionary theory
and Earths origins and
that candidates now have to
declare where they stand on
established science should
be a signal that we are slip-
sliding toward governance by
emotion rather than reason.
But its important to under-
stand whats undergirding the
debate. It has little to do with
a given candidates policy
and everything to do with
whether he or she believes
in God.
If we are descended of
some blend of apes, then we
cant have been created in
Gods image. If we estab-
lish Earths age at 4.5 billion
years, then we contradict the
biblical view that God creat-
ed the world just 6,500 years
ago. And finally, if we say
that climate change is partly
the result of mans actions,
then God cant be the One
who punishes mans sins with
floods, droughts, earthquakes
and hurricanes. If He wants
the climate to change, then
He will so ordain and well
pray more.
Perry knows he has to
make clear that God is his
wingman. And this convic-
tion seems not only to be
sincere, but also to be rela-
tively noncontroversial in the
GOPs church and perhaps
beyond. He understands that
his base cares more that the
president is clear on his rank-
ing in the planetary order than
whether he can schmooze
with European leaders or,
heaven forbid, the media.
And this is why Perry could
easily steal the nomination
from Romney.
And also why he probably
cant win a national election,
in which large swaths of the
electorate would prefer that
their president keep his reli-
gion close and be respect-
ful of knowledge that has
evolved from thousands of
years of human struggle
against superstition and the
kind of literal-mindedness
that leads straight to the dark
ages.
Faith and reason are not
mutually exclusive, but Perry
makes you think they are.

Winston is a 1 1/2-year-old
hound mix. He loves to play
and is looking for someone
who can spend time training.
Hes treat motivated and loves
attention. Hes very good with
other dogs and can live with
cats.
Bob is a 2 1/2-year-old
male. He came to the shelter
with a bad tail injury and it
had to be surgically removed.
With a little time and TLC,
he is as good as new and
ready to go home.
Its only the end of August
and Ive already seen some
trees beginning to change
color! Thats a change Im
not ready for quite yet. I pre-
fer to be floating around in
the pool on a warm summer
day. Not so long ago, we
were frying eggs on the side-
walk; and now, the evenings
are cool indicating that the
change to fall is not far off.
Speaking of change, sev-
eral things have changed or
are about to change at the
Thrift Shop. After the huge
buy-one-get-one half off sale
and the 25-cent sale, the big
switch has been made to the
fall and winter merchan-
dise thats quite a change
from swimsuits to snuggly
warm sweaters. The direc-
tors are looking into getting
some more racks and mov-
ing them closer together to
display more items. With the
added racks, youll want to be
sure to check daily as items
that come in overnight can
now be displayed even more
rapidly than ever before. The
selection changes daily.
Curves recently held
a food drive to benefit the
food bank. Through them and
the Feinstein Foundation, a
monetary donation was also
received by the Food Bank
and we sincerely want to
thank both entities for their
support of the Delphos Thrift
Shop.
From time to time, the
Thrift Shop receives anony-
mous monetary donations.
Everyone at the shop would
like to thank those generous,
anonymous donors publicly
at this time, since theres no
way we can send a formal
thank you to them. We are
truly blessed by your gener-
osity!
We would like to give
a great big thank you to
Double AA Trailer Sales for
once again providing a stor-
age trailer for our use after
the Lincoln Highway sales
weekend was over. The
items have been sorted and
displayed. Come find your
treasure to change things up
at your house. So, whether
youre changing things up,
cleaning out your house or
your parents homes, remem-
ber the Thrift Shop with
your donations. Everything
is welcome and appreciated
even things like the old-
fashion powdered starch is
something were in need of.
Dont throw it out bring
it in!
The board accepted a let-
ter of resignation from Shop
Manager, Becky Jones, who
has been at the Thrift Shop
for more than four years.
One could tell she truly loved
her work and her ministry
to others. Through her faith
in God, her hard work and
expertise, the Thrift Shop has
seen much success. Everyone
here extends a huge thank
you to her and offers her
all of our best wishes in her
new endeavor and change of
direction in her life.
If youd like to change
your life, contact the Thrift
Shop at 419-692-2942 and
become a volunteer.
Until the next time, thats
this months report.
From the Thrift Shop
Lynch to present Preserving
the Steam Era Sunday
The Allen County Museum
will present Kelly Lynch and
Preserving the Steam Era at
2 p.m. Sunday in the Folsom
Auditorium.
Steam locomotives were
designed, built, and used
over a period of
about 150 years.
Through innova-
tion and evolu-
tion, they were
built stronger and
faster, but more
efficient, modern
machines replaced
them. Why are
the steam loco-
motives that still
exist important
today? Why do they
matter?
As an industry, rail pres-
ervation has often been
defined by reflecting on the
past, so much so that plan-
ning ahead has often been an
afterthought. Many decades
after the start of the move-
ment, a similar and hasty
obsolescence threatens pres-
ervation. It isnt scrap val-
ues or abandonment, but a
wholesale lack of signifi-
cance. First we saved our
trains from scrap, but now
its time to save them from
irrelevance.
Lynch is an accomplished
filmmaker and public rela-
tions director for the Fort
Wayne Railroad Historical
Society, caretakers of
Lima built steam
locomotive No.
765 - the largest
steam locomotive
operating east of
the Mississippi.
Educat ed at
Columbia College,
Chicago, the
New York Film
Academy and
Universal Studios
in Los Angeles,
Lynch currently acts
as the railroad transportation
coordinator for the Indiana
Film Commission and heads
a small production compa-
ny. He was named one of
the under-35 leaders in rail-
road preservation by Trains
magazine in 2005 and has
helped preserve, operate,
and promote historic steam
locomotives in Indiana,
Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan,
and California.
This program is free and
open to the public.

DELPHOS There was more
than enough action to satisfy even
the biggest high school football fan
Friday night involving host Jefferson
and non-league foe Northwood at
Stadium Park.
There was a kickoff and inter-
ception return for scores.
There were numerous controver-
sial rulings to say the least and
a total of 15 penalties that left the
partisans voicing their displeasure.
There was a 21-point comeback
by the Wildcats that saw them take a
late 1-point lead and on the verge of
a great come-from-behind win.
In the end, the Rangers had
enough will to get a 23-yard field
goal from Garrett Reighard with
just 2.0 ticks on the clock to secure
a 37-35 dandy to open the 2011
campaign.
This was a tough, tough game
to lose. It goes to show us that we
cant play just two quarters and
expect to be successful; we have to
play four quarters, Jefferson coach
Bub Lindeman explained. We
showed what we are capable of
doing offensively the second half;
now, we just need to figure out how
to do it all four quarters. That is the
bottom line tonight,
Trailing 28-7 at the half, the Red
and White began its comeback by
taking the second-half kickoff 72
yards in 14 plays. It was the Quinten
Wessell show; the junior bulldozer
ran eight times for 49 yards (10
totes, 55 yards for the night) and
even caught an 8-yard pass from
sophomore backup signalcaller
Austin Jettinghoff (8-of-9 passing,
236 yards, 3 TDs). The drive was
finished off by a 1-yard run over
right tackle by senior tailback Curtis
Miller (6 rushes, 40 yards) that was
finally ruled a touchdown. Wessell
added the point-after for a 28-14
deficit with 5:08 left in the third
period.
A 16-yard Jordan Schell kick-
off return and a 15-yard personal
foul on the hosts left Northwood
at the 41. They needed eight plays
to answer the Delphos tally with
an 8-yard jaunt over right tackle
by quarterback Nicholas Russell
(21 rushes, 113 yards). However,
Reighard missed the conversion,
leaving the scoreboard at 34-14 with
2:31 showing in the third.
Back came the awakened
Wildcats. Buzard return the kick-
off 22 yards to the 41, setting up
a 6-play sequence. Keyed by a
39-yard Jettinghoff completion to
senior Tony George (4 grabs, 156
yards), the hosts finished it on the
first play of the fourth period, a 4th-
and-5 from the 6. Jettinghoff rolled
right and found Miller at the right
pylon, where he ended up in the end
zone. Wessell made it 34-21 with
11:55 left.
Staying in its up-tempo attack,
Northwood took 3:24 off the clock
before having to punt from the
Jefferson 37; a 35-yard punt by
Evan Perkins was downed at the
Delphos 2.
No matter. After an incomple-
tion, Jettinghoff dropped and found
George along the right sideline,
where he outleapt the defender and
caught the ball at 35. He shook
off that defensive back and was
down the sideline for the 98-yarder.
Wessell closed the gap to 34-28
with 8:08 remaining.
Once more, Northwood moved
the ball, starting from its 25 and
reaching the Delphos 33 in nine
plays. However, on 4th-and-inches
from there, Perkins (9 rushes, 106
yards) was stuffed for a 2-yard loss
by junior end Colin McConnahea.
With 3:19 remaining and no
timeouts, the Wildcats went big
play to march the 65 yards in four
plays. Two completions to Buzard
for 25 and 22 yards sandwiched
around a holding penalty set
up a first down at the Northwood
24. Jettinghoff rolled right and split
two defenders to find senior Shayn
Klinger on the right seam at the goal
line. Wessell made it 35-34 with
2:09 remaining.
A personal foul on the last
scrimmage play allowed Jefferson
to kick off from the visitor 45 and
they were forced to start from the
20. Russell then completed all six
of his throws on the 10-play drive,
including a 36-yarder to Matthew
Jeffries that was eventually ruled
a catch in bounds. After their last
timeout with six seconds left and the
pigskin at the Jefferson 23, Reighard
was true from 23 yards, setting off a
wild Northwood celebration.
An unsportsmanlike conduct
penalty forced the visitors to kick
off from the 25 but the Wildcats
could only advance the return to the
Ranger 40 to end the contest.
The Rangers scored on the very
first play; the opening kickoff. After
Ricky Hartley let the ball go through,
he picked it up at the 5 in the middle
of the field. He started left, found the
sideline and the wall and was gone
for a 95-yarder. Reighard added the
point-after for a 7-0 lead just 15
ticks into the opener.
After sophomore Zavier Buzard
tried to duplicate that his kickoff
return was 46 yards the Wildcats
started at the Northwood 39. Three
plays hence, a 4th-and-2 at the 31,
Miller (6 totes, 40 yards) busted over
right guard, stiff-armed a defender
and found himself in the end zone.
Wessells kick tied it at 7-7 with
10:07 showing in the period.
Northwood was stopped on
downs at the Delphos 26.
After forcing a punt, the
Northwood no-huddle, hurry-up,
flex-bone offense began a 16-play
(all on the ground), 75-yard drive
that ate up 5:29. With their myriad
of runners, led by Russell (21 totes,
113 yards), the score came from the
Delphos 5. Dustin Fullenlove took
a sweep off left end and powered to
the goal line. Reighards conversion
made it 14-7 with 11:28 left in the
opening half.
Later on, the Wildcats seemed to
be winning the battle of field posi-
tion, taking over at the Northwood
14 after a Tony George 27-yard punt
return and a 15-yard facemask on
the visitors (9 penalties, 84 yards).
However, a holding call (6 calls,
50 yards) stymied the Wildcats and
junior Drew Kortokrax was sacked
on fourth-and-9 at the 13.
On an exchange of punts, the
Rangers nearly turned it over, with
the deep man almost touching the
punt from Kortokrax and Klinger
appearing to recover at the Ranger
3 and running it in. However, after
consultation, the officials ruled a
touchback, with the visitors starting
at the 20.
The visitors wasted little time:
a 78-yard run by Perkins, a 1-yard
loss by him and then a 3-yard burst
over right guard by Fullenlove.
Reighards kick made it 21-7 with
1:15 showing.
Then came disaster for the
Wildcats. Trying to score before the
half ended, instead, Perkins picked
off a Kortokrax (3-of-6 passing, 26
yards) aerial along the left hash and
ran down the sideline for a 70-yard
interception return with 23 ticks left.
Reighard made it 28-7 at the half.
Whenever you have to defend
an option offense like Northwoods,
you must be disciplined every play.
We had too many plays where
we werent, Lindeman added.
Offensively, we struggled to get
into a rhythm after the first drive, for
whatever reason. When we scored
to start the second half, that just
gave us confidence. I am proud of
the toughness we showed at coming
back but, again, this is a very dif-
ficult pill to swallow.
Jefferson opens NWC play
Friday at Paulding (7:30 p.m. kick-
off).
Indians 2, Royals 1
CLEVELAND As they
were about to take the field, the
Cleveland Indians held a last-sec-
ond meeting. Something had to
be done.
On a night filled with memories
and hope, the Indians turned to
their glorious past.
So they hiked up their pants and
showed off their socks just like
Jim Thome.
It was a little welcome present
for the big guy, explained third
baseman Jack Hannahan.
Thome was grateful.
It was similar to 97, Thome
said following Clevelands 2-1 win
Friday night over the Kansas City
Royals. They did that for my
birthday and that year went to the
World Series. So well see what
happens.
Thome went hitless but was
warmly welcomed in his Cleveland
homecoming after nearly a decade
away, leaving as a free agent in
2002 and disappointing Cleveland
fans, and the Indians, getting a
strong outing from Ubaldo Jimenez
(2-1), slowed their slide in the AL
Central. The Indians won for just
the second time in eight games
but didnt lose any ground to the
Tigers.
Thome went 0-for-4 and struck
out twice. The slugger waived a no-
trade clause to return to Cleveland
and a chance to help the Indians get
back to the postseason.
And in his return, a sellout
crowd cheered his every move.
Thome received a thunderous
standing ovation when he came
up for the first time in the second
inning. Holding Welcome Thome
signs, fans clapped and yelled and
he returned the love before his first
at-bat with the Indians in nine years
by taking off his batting helmet and
bowing slightly.
Very emotional, he said.
Overwhelming in a good way.
It was like it used to be all the
time in Cleveland. The Indians
played to packed houses every
night in the 90s, winning five
straight division titles and mak-
ing it to the World Series twice.
The rocking crowd hung on every
pitch.
Jimenez (2-1) struck out 10 and
allowed one run in seven innings,
the kind of performance Cleveland
had been needing from him since
he came in a trade from Colorado.
The Indians scored the go-
ahead run on a bases-loaded walk
in the seventh by reliever Tim
Collins and beat Felipe Paulino
(2-6), who shut them out for the
first six innings.
Chris Perez stranded the tying
run at third in the ninth for his
28th save.
Thomes return sparked a
booming business at the Indians
box office on Friday. The club
was expecting a crowd of around
Ohio MLB Capsules

Jefferson senior wideout Shayn Klinger splits Northwood defenders Tyler Mack and
Ricky Hartley for the 24-yard touchdown reception from Austin Jettinghoff that gave
Jefferson its only lead late in the contest Friday night at Stadium Park. However, the
Rangers won on a 2-seconds-left 23-yard field goal to grab a 37-35 nail-biter.

DELPHOS There was more
than enough action to satisfy even
the biggest high school football fan
Friday night involving host Jefferson
and non-league foe Northwood at
Stadium Park.
There was a kickoff and inter-
ception return for scores.
There were numerous controver-
sial rulings to say the least and
a total of 15 penalties that left the
partisans voicing their displeasure.
There was a 21-point comeback
by the Wildcats that saw them take a
late 1-point lead and on the verge of
a great come-from-behind win.
In the end, the Rangers had
enough will to get a 23-yard field
goal from Garrett Reighard with
just 2.0 ticks on the clock to secure
a 37-35 dandy to open the 2011
campaign.
This was a tough, tough game
to lose. It goes to show us that we
cant play just two quarters and
expect to be successful; we have to
play four quarters, Jefferson coach
Bub Lindeman explained. We
showed what we are capable of
doing offensively the second half;
now, we just need to figure out how
to do it all four quarters. That is the
bottom line tonight,
Trailing 28-7 at the half, the Red
and White began its comeback by
taking the second-half kickoff 72
yards in 14 plays. It was the Quinten
Wessell show; the junior bulldozer
ran eight times for 49 yards (10
totes, 55 yards for the night) and
even caught an 8-yard pass from
sophomore backup signalcaller
Austin Jettinghoff (8-of-9 passing,
236 yards, 3 TDs). The drive was
finished off by a 1-yard run over
right tackle by senior tailback Curtis
Miller (6 rushes, 40 yards) that was
finally ruled a touchdown. Wessell
added the point-after for a 28-14
deficit with 5:08 left in the third
period.
A 16-yard Jordan Schell kick-
off return and a 15-yard personal
foul on the hosts left Northwood
at the 41. They needed eight plays
to answer the Delphos tally with
an 8-yard jaunt over right tackle
by quarterback Nicholas Russell
(21 rushes, 113 yards). However,
Reighard missed the conversion,
leaving the scoreboard at 34-14 with
2:31 showing in the third.
Back came the awakened
Wildcats. Buzard return the kick-
off 22 yards to the 41, setting up
a 6-play sequence. Keyed by a
39-yard Jettinghoff completion to
senior Tony George (4 grabs, 156
yards), the hosts finished it on the
first play of the fourth period, a 4th-
and-5 from the 6. Jettinghoff rolled
right and found Miller at the right
pylon, where he ended up in the end
zone. Wessell made it 34-21 with
11:55 left.
Staying in its up-tempo attack,
Northwood took 3:24 off the clock
before having to punt from the
Jefferson 37; a 35-yard punt by
Evan Perkins was downed at the
Delphos 2.
No matter. After an incomple-
tion, Jettinghoff dropped and found
George along the right sideline,
where he outleapt the defender and
caught the ball at 35. He shook
off that defensive back and was
down the sideline for the 98-yarder.
Wessell closed the gap to 34-28
with 8:08 remaining.
Once more, Northwood moved
the ball, starting from its 25 and
reaching the Delphos 33 in nine
plays. However, on 4th-and-inches
from there, Perkins (9 rushes, 106
yards) was stuffed for a 2-yard loss
by junior end Colin McConnahea.
With 3:19 remaining and no
timeouts, the Wildcats went big
play to march the 65 yards in four
plays. Two completions to Buzard
for 25 and 22 yards sandwiched
around a holding penalty set
up a first down at the Northwood
24. Jettinghoff rolled right and split
two defenders to find senior Shayn
Klinger on the right seam at the goal
line. Wessell made it 35-34 with
2:09 remaining.
A personal foul on the last
scrimmage play allowed Jefferson
to kick off from the visitor 45 and
they were forced to start from the
20. Russell then completed all six
of his throws on the 10-play drive,
including a 36-yarder to Matthew
Jeffries that was eventually ruled
a catch in bounds. After their last
timeout with six seconds left and the
pigskin at the Jefferson 23, Reighard
was true from 23 yards, setting off a
wild Northwood celebration.
An unsportsmanlike conduct
penalty forced the visitors to kick
off from the 25 but the Wildcats
could only advance the return to the
Ranger 40 to end the contest.
The Rangers scored on the very
first play; the opening kickoff. After
Ricky Hartley let the ball go through,
he picked it up at the 5 in the middle
of the field. He started left, found the
sideline and the wall and was gone
for a 95-yarder. Reighard added the
point-after for a 7-0 lead just 15
ticks into the opener.
After sophomore Zavier Buzard
tried to duplicate that his kickoff
return was 46 yards the Wildcats
started at the Northwood 39. Three
plays hence, a 4th-and-2 at the 31,
Miller (6 totes, 40 yards) busted over
right guard, stiff-armed a defender
and found himself in the end zone.
Wessells kick tied it at 7-7 with
10:07 showing in the period.
Northwood was stopped on
downs at the Delphos 26.
After forcing a punt, the
Northwood no-huddle, hurry-up,
flex-bone offense began a 16-play
(all on the ground), 75-yard drive
that ate up 5:29. With their myriad
of runners, led by Russell (21 totes,
113 yards), the score came from the
Delphos 5. Dustin Fullenlove took
a sweep off left end and powered to
the goal line. Reighards conversion
made it 14-7 with 11:28 left in the
opening half.
Later on, the Wildcats seemed to
be winning the battle of field posi-
tion, taking over at the Northwood
14 after a Tony George 27-yard punt
return and a 15-yard facemask on
the visitors (9 penalties, 84 yards).
However, a holding call (6 calls,
50 yards) stymied the Wildcats and
junior Drew Kortokrax was sacked
on fourth-and-9 at the 13.
On an exchange of punts, the
Rangers nearly turned it over, with
the deep man almost touching the
punt from Kortokrax and Klinger
appearing to recover at the Ranger
3 and running it in. However, after
consultation, the officials ruled a
touchback, with the visitors starting
at the 20.
The visitors wasted little time:
a 78-yard run by Perkins, a 1-yard
loss by him and then a 3-yard burst
over right guard by Fullenlove.
Reighards kick made it 21-7 with
1:15 showing.
Then came disaster for the
Wildcats. Trying to score before the
half ended, instead, Perkins picked
off a Kortokrax (3-of-6 passing, 26
yards) aerial along the left hash and
ran down the sideline for a 70-yard
interception return with 23 ticks left.
Reighard made it 28-7 at the half.
Whenever you have to defend
an option offense like Northwoods,
you must be disciplined every play.
We had too many plays where
we werent, Lindeman added.
Offensively, we struggled to get
into a rhythm after the first drive, for
whatever reason. When we scored
to start the second half, that just
gave us confidence. I am proud of
the toughness we showed at coming
back but, again, this is a very dif-
ficult pill to swallow.
Jefferson opens NWC play
Friday at Paulding (7:30 p.m. kick-
off).
Indians 2, Royals 1
CLEVELAND As they
were about to take the field, the
Cleveland Indians held a last-sec-
ond meeting. Something had to
be done.
On a night filled with memories
and hope, the Indians turned to
their glorious past.
So they hiked up their pants and
showed off their socks just like
Jim Thome.
It was a little welcome present
for the big guy, explained third
baseman Jack Hannahan.
Thome was grateful.
It was similar to 97, Thome
said following Clevelands 2-1 win
Friday night over the Kansas City
Royals. They did that for my
birthday and that year went to the
World Series. So well see what
happens.
Thome went hitless but was
warmly welcomed in his Cleveland
homecoming after nearly a decade
away, leaving as a free agent in
2002 and disappointing Cleveland
fans, and the Indians, getting a
strong outing from Ubaldo Jimenez
(2-1), slowed their slide in the AL
Central. The Indians won for just
the second time in eight games
but didnt lose any ground to the
Tigers.
Thome went 0-for-4 and struck
out twice. The slugger waived a no-
trade clause to return to Cleveland
and a chance to help the Indians get
back to the postseason.
And in his return, a sellout
crowd cheered his every move.
Thome received a thunderous
standing ovation when he came
up for the first time in the second
inning. Holding Welcome Thome
signs, fans clapped and yelled and
he returned the love before his first
at-bat with the Indians in nine years
by taking off his batting helmet and
bowing slightly.
Very emotional, he said.
Overwhelming in a good way.
It was like it used to be all the
time in Cleveland. The Indians
played to packed houses every
night in the 90s, winning five
straight division titles and mak-
ing it to the World Series twice.
The rocking crowd hung on every
pitch.
Jimenez (2-1) struck out 10 and
allowed one run in seven innings,
the kind of performance Cleveland
had been needing from him since
he came in a trade from Colorado.
The Indians scored the go-
ahead run on a bases-loaded walk
in the seventh by reliever Tim
Collins and beat Felipe Paulino
(2-6), who shut them out for the
first six innings.
Chris Perez stranded the tying
run at third in the ninth for his
28th save.
Thomes return sparked a
booming business at the Indians
box office on Friday. The club
was expecting a crowd of around

Jefferson senior wideout Shayn Klinger splits Northwood defenders Tyler Mack and
Ricky Hartley for the 24-yard touchdown reception from Austin Jettinghoff that gave
Jefferson its only lead late in the contest Friday night at Stadium Park. However, the
Rangers won on a 2-seconds-left 23-yard field goal to grab a 37-35 nail-biter.

Fish Ohio
CENTRAL OHIO
Alum Creek Lake (Delaware Co.)
- Smallmouth bass being caught in
this lake north of Columbus; using
crankbaits and spinner baits, target
the main and secondary lake points
where riprap or hard bottom is pres-
ent. Saugeye can be caught there;
try trolling in front of the beach at
dawn and dusk. Crappies being found
around wood in 10-15 feet of water
and at the mouth of some coves;
use jigs or minnows. These will move
into shallower water as temperatures
decrease. Muskie can provide good
action now; troll crankbaits along
points and the dam.
Deer Creek Lake (Fayette/
Pickaway counties) - Fish become
more active as water temperatures
decrease. For crappie, target woody
cover in old creek channel, start-
ing deep and moving to shallower
water as water temperatures cool;
try minnows or jigs suspended under
a bobber. Largemouth bass can be
caught on spinner baits, crankbaits
and plastics; fish shoreline cover, sec-
ondary points and riprap. Bluegills
can be caught on wax worms and
nightcrawlers.
NORTHWEST OHIO
Willard Reservoir (Huron Co.) -
Yellow perch and bluegill sunfish are
being caught during the day in 20 feet
of water. Anglers are having the most
success still-fishing worms, particu-
larly around the dock and boat ramp.
Maumee River (Defiance Co.) -
Anglers are catching channel catfish
during the day on slip bobbers with
red worms and nightcrawlers. The
best location is at the base of the
Independence Dam in the deeper
holes.
Van Wert Reservoir #2 (Defiance
Co.) - Channel catfish are being
caught in the evenings along the
south bank; try using slip bobbers with
nightcrawlers.
NORTHEAST OHIO
Akron Youth Fishing Area (Summit
Co.) - There are only two weekends
left for youngsters to enjoy fishing this
very accessible, family-friendly area
open to the public at Wildlife District
Three. Plenty of sunfish, catfish and
crappie are still waiting to be caught by
kids 15 years and younger. The area
is open 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday,
Sunday and Labor Day; kids can fish
as long as they are accompanied by
a parent. Bait, rods and tackle are
provided and a Division of Wildlife
employee is available for questions
and to assist youngsters with fishing.
Restrooms are also available as well.
Dont let this opportunity be the one
that got away! Visit the area at 912
Portage Lakes Drive, just off of SR
93/Manchester Road.
Leesville Lake (Carroll Co.) -
Many probably have thoughts of trad-
ing in the fishing rod for the shotgun
as Sept. 1 rolls around the corner.
Why not just keep both handy? Some
of Ohios best fishing takes place
once squirrel season opens, so head
here, a well-known site for the size
and numbers of muskie it produces
as well as populous gray squirrels.
Anglers bass fishing have reported
an increase in muskie activity in the
shallows; casting large bucktails or
jerkbaits are your best bets. For more
information on muskie fishing, visit
www.wildohio.com.
SOUTHEAST OHIO
Dillon Lake (Muskingum Co.) -
Largemouth bass fishing has been
slow while temperatures stay high.
However, the use of top-water baits
near weed lines can still produce
bass in the 2- to 3-pound range; try
plastic worms in dark colors, including
purple, motor oil and black late in the
evening, throughout the night and in
the early morning before daybreak.
Bluegill can be caught using night-
crawlers below a bobber. Cat fishing
can be excellent here and in feeder
tributary streams during a water rise
after a rainfall. Chicken livers and
nightcrawlers are preferred, fished
tight-line on the bottom near creek
channels.
Hocking River (Athens Co.) -
Crappie fishing has picked up over
the last week, with success using
white and blue jigs and twister tails.
Channel catfish can also be caught
throughout; a variety of baits will
work, including minnows, cut shad
and chicken livers.
SOUTHWEST OHIO
Acton Lake (Preble Co.) - Good
numbers of 1- to 3-pound channel
cats are being caught at this lake
in Hueston Woods State Park. Try
fishing on the bottom using chicken
livers or shrimp; the shoreline area
between the swimming beach and
Sugar Camp area has been best.
East Fork Lake (Clermont Co.
) - Located east off of 275 to 32 east
to Half Acre Road exit. A few hybrid-
striped bass are being caught by troll-
ing or jigging shad-colored crankbaits
or spoons in 5- to 7-foot depths. Also,
try slowly trolling with live gizzard
shad; watch for these breaking the
waters surface as they chase schools
of gizzard shad. Shore anglers have
been successful using nightcrawlers
and chicken livers, especially around
the main state park public swimming
beach. Anglers are catching fair num-
bers of sub-legal fish (ALL hybrids
less than 15 inches must be immedi-
ately released back into the lake) with
some fish caught up to 19-22 inches;
anglers can only keep a daily limit of
four. Channel catfish being caught
on crawdads, live minnows or earth-
worms off of the bottom and about 5-8
feet deep; cast into the areas under
undercut banks or near submerged
trees and brush.
Grand Lake St. Marys (Auglaize/
Mercer counties) - Channel catfish
are popular at Ohios largest inland
lake. Try fishing on the bottom with
nightcrawlers, chicken livers, shrimp,
or cut baits around the Windy Point
fishing pier and the stone piers along
the east bank. Increase your chances
of catching a large flathead by using
large chub minnows or live sunfish.
OHIO RIVER
New Richmond to Meldahl Dam
(Clermont Co.) - Catfishing is heating
up; water levels are still slightly low in
areas but anglers are reporting good
catches on raw or seasoned chicken
breast. Stripers are being caught
along the mouths of creeks flowing
into the river; watch for skipjack action
in these area stripers will be forag-
ing for them.
Washington Co. - Fishing has
been slow other than catfish angling.
Channel cats being caught on cut
and stink baits, chicken livers and
nightcrawlers fished tight-line on the
bottom; the premier catches are using
goldfish for the flatheads. Catfish suc-
cess can be quite variable but results
are primarily at dusk, through the
night and early morning hours before
daybreak.
LAKE ERIE
Daily Bag Limits Regulations

Western Basin: Walleye fish-
ing slowed in the past week. Some
reports came from the reef com-
plex, from the turnaround buoy of
the Toledo shipping channel to West
Sister Island, NW of Gull Island Shoal
and N of Kelleys Island by trolling with
divers and spoons and inline weights
with worm harnesses, as well as by
casting mayfly rigs or drifting with bot-
tom-bouncers and worm harnesses.
... Yellow perch fishing continues to
be good, especially the turnaround
buoy, south of H can of the Camp
Perry firing range, N of North Bass
Island, N of Lucys Point and around
Kelleys Island using spreaders with
shiners fished near the bottom. ...
Good catches of largemouth bass are
still available around the harbors and
nearshore areas from Catawba to
Marblehead. Smallmouths have been
caught around South and Middle
Bass islands.
Central Basin: Very good wall-
eye fishing has been reported 72-74
feet N/NE of Ashtabula and 72-74
NW of Conneaut using wireline, jet
and dipsy divers with red, gold, sil-
ver, black, copper and purple spoons
and stick baits. Fair fishing has been
reported around the Sandbar near
Vermilion and Lorain; spoons and
harnesses produce best. ... Yellow
perch fishing has been fair off of
the condos between Vermilion and
Beaver Creek. Good fishing has been
reported 36-48 N/NE of Edgewater
Park and 44-46 N of Gordon Park.
Excellent fishing has been reported
48-52 NW of Fairport (the hump)
and 62-65 NE of Conneaut. Perch-
spreaders with shiners fished on the
bottom produces the most fish using
golden shiners when emerald shiners
are not available. Shore fishing off
the Mentor Headlands breakwall and
Fairport Pier has been spotty; morn-
ings and evenings have been best.
... Smallmouth bass fishing has been
very good in 15-25 around harbor
areas in Cleveland, Fairport Harbor,
Geneva, Ashtabula and Conneaut
using crayfish and leeches, dark
green and red tube jigs and blade
and crank baits. ... Steelhead trout
fishing has been fair while trolling for
walleye at the same locations listed
above (Ashtabula and Conneaut).
... Anglers are catching white bass
off the Eastlake CEI and Mentor
Headlands breakwalls using agitators
with white jigs and twister tails, par-
ticularly mornings and evenings. For
boat anglers, look for gulls feeding
on schools of shiners at the surface;
white bass will be below the shiners.
... Anglers are catching channel cats
off the Mentor Headlands breakwall
at night using nightcrawlers Fish are
also being caught along the Grand
River at St. Clair Street bridge.

FISHING REPORT
By JENNA FRYER
BRISTOL, Tenn.
Kyle Busch edged teammate
Joey Logano at the Bristol
Motor Speedway finish line
Friday night to become the
all-time winningest driver in
Nationwide Series.
The win was the 50th of
Buschs career in NASCARs
second-tier series and broke a
tie the 26-year-old had with
Mark Martin.
Theres an awful lot of
accomplishments and its hard
to pinpoint exactly where they
fall, Busch said. Certainly,
this is a pretty big one. Just
being able to race that hard,
and race against a teammate
like that, knowing he had just
as good as stuff as I did.
Martin visited Busch
in Victory Lane at New
Hampshire last month when
Busch tied his record and the
two posed for pictures. But at
Bristol, it was all about Busch
and his team.
It was great to have Mark
with us in Victory Lane at
Loudon ... tonight was our
night, being able to beat him
and get atop the all-time
wins list in Nationwide was
special for us as a team and
me as a driver, Busch said.
It was fitting for Busch
to break the mark at Bristol,
where hes practically
unbeatable of late. Friday
nights win was his 12th at
Bristol spanning all three
NASCAR national series
and he became the first
driver to win three consecu-
tive Nationwide races on the
Tennessee bullring.
Busch, who has 102 total
wins in NASCARs top three
divisions, will try to win his
third consecutive Sprint Cup
Series race at Bristol tonight.
Busch is the current Cup
points leader and his victory
Sunday at Michigan was his
series-best fourth of the sea-
son.
Well, we all hate him by
now, joked third-place fin-
isher Clint Bowyer, but hes
really good. To win that many
races at this young of age is
really remarkable. Hes one
of the best drivers this sport
has ever seen and hes going
to win a lot of races, unfortu-
nately.
To get the Nationwide
record, though, he had to
hold off a strong challenge
from his Joe Gibbs Racing
teammate. Busch and Logano
drove door-to-door over the
final two laps and Logano
briefly surged ahead before
Busch beat him by a nose to
the checkered flag.
If there were two more
laps, he probably would
have got me, Busch added.
Certainly it would have been
a lot uglier if it had not been
a teammate. Depending on
who you had been racing with
would determine how dirty
it got.
The .019-second margin
of victory was the closest in
series history at Bristol and
left Logano frustrated with
the outcome.
I did everything besides
wrecking him. I wish I was
in Victory Lane now instead
of sitting here in second by
like three inches, Logano
said. I knew I was really
going to have one shot at it.
I got underneath him, door-
to-door, I ran him up the race
track, we bounced the doors
a couple of times and, look-
ing at the replays, I needed
to bounce the door just one
more time.
Bowyer finished third and
said hed been sitting back
waiting for Busch and Logano
to make a mistake.
It was a good race,
Bowyer added. Joey just
didnt do
his job.
I was
going to
try to go
by both of them, it just didnt
work out.
Shut up, Logano replied
with a laugh.
Carl Edwards finished
fourth, Aric Almirola was
fifth and was followed by
Michael Annett, Jason
Leffler and Elliott Sadler.
Parker Kligerman, the injury
replacement this week for
Brad Keselowski, was ninth
and Brian Scott rounded out
the top 10.
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. fin-
ished 11th to hang on to his
series points lead. He has a
five-point lead over Sadler.
Drivers wish Patrick well
in new endeavor
SONOMA, Calif. Ryan
Hunter-Reay wished Danica
Patrick well and believes his
Andretti Autosport teammate
will do fine as she makes
the jump to the NASCAR
circuit.
Hunter-Reay added
Thursday that having Patrick
race in IndyCar for the past
seven years provided a mar-
keting boost but that he is
confident the series will do
well even without one of its
most recognizable drivers.
I dont think IndyCars
growth and health rises and
falls with Danica, Hunter-
Reay told The Associated
Press. Certainly Danica
has a massive following and
rightfully so. Shes respected
by all of the drivers here.
But if were relying on
Danica for the health of the
series, weve got bigger prob-
lems on our hands, which is
not the case.
Patrick announced
Thursday that she is leaving
open-wheel competition to
race a full Nationwide season
and a part-time Sprint Cup
schedule in 2012.
The move had been
expected for some time and
didnt catch many drivers by
surprise. Patrick has spent the
past two seasons running a
split series between IndyCar
and the NASCAR Nationwide
Series.
Speaking before Fridays
practice session at Infineon
Raceway, Patrick didnt
rule out possibly returning
to IndyCar to race in the
Indianapolis 500.
Ive said I love Indy and
Id like to keep doing it but
were not clear on whats pos-
sible for that in the future,
Patrick said. Its something
were keeping in mind to try
for.
A day after making her
decision to leave the IndyCar
series public, Patrick looked
and sounded very relaxed.
She repeatedly flashed her
familiar smile and joked with
reporters during a 30-minute
interview session.
Mostly Im just relieved
that its out there and I can
talk about it, Patrick said.
The truths out there. I dont
feel trapped behind the secrets
and the deals behind the cur-
tains that nobody can really
know about yet. I just had to
really think about what was
going to make me the happi-
est where I wanted to race.
Hunter-Reay, whose con-
troversial win Aug. 14 at New
Hampshire was upheld by an
appeals panel
earlier this
week, point-
ed to chang-
es IndyCar
is making for his optimistic
outlook. IndyCars will have
a newer, lighter chassis in
2012, while Chevrolet and
Lotus are joining Honda in
producing the 2.2 V-6 engines
the cars will use.
Our product is on the track
racing, Hunter-Reay added.
Next year with the new cars,
and GM, Honda and Lotus
going head to head, weve got
a lot of momentum.
Will Power, second in
points behind Dario Franchitti,
agreed.
At the end of the day
IndyCar is what made
Danica, Power said. She
does bring a lot of public-
ity now but its IndyCar that
originally got her into this
position. The decision to go
to NASCAR wasnt a sur-
prise at all. She was offered
more money to go there, so
its as simple as that.
Patrick has had mixed suc-
cess since her arrival on the
IndyCar circuit as a virtual
unknown in 2005.
That same year Patrick
became the first woman to
lead at the Indy 500 she
finished fourth then won
her first IndyCar race in 2008.
Her best season came the fol-
lowing year when Patrick fin-
ished fifth overall.
Heading into this week-
ends Indy Grand Prix of
Sonoma, Patrick is 12th in
points.
Franchitti, who clocked the
fastest time during Fridays
qualifying at Infineon
Raceway, has been a long-
time friend of Patricks. Like
most drivers, he had been
expecting her to make the
switch to NASCAR for a
while.
Her results (in IndyCar)
had not been what she had
hoped and I could see her
getting frustrated because
of that, Franchitti added.
Shes gone a direction she
feels is better for her and
good for her. Ill miss having
her around as a friend at the
track.
Certainly in the
Nationwide Series I think
shell do a very good job
there. Ill be watching with
interest.
Patrick, who emphatically
denied that she was mak-
ing the move because of the
money, doesnt think IndyCar
will suffer much without her.
The car count is up and
the competition level is
definitely up, she added.
(IndyCar CEO Randy
Bernard) has brought some
fresh ideas and approaches
to the IndyCar series and as
Ive said over the last few
years things are really on the
up and up. It doesnt change
how I feel and what I want to
do ... but I think IndyCar is
still going up.

30,000 and drew 41,337 the
fourth sellout of 2011. Nearly
9,000 tickets were sold after
the Indians announced their
career home run leader was
coming back.
Jimenez was nasty. He blew
fastballs past the Royals and
was as good as hes been since
the Indians traded two top pros-
pects for him on July 30. The
right-hander has allowed just
one earned run in 15 innings in
two home starts.
Blanked for six innings by
Paulino, the Indians scored
twice in the seventh on
Hannahans RBI single and a
bases-loaded walk by Ezequiel
Carrera to take a 2-1 lead.
Reds 4, Nationals 3
CINCINNATI Miguel
Cairo was determined not to
fail a second time.
Cairo struck out with two
runners aboard and the score
tied in the seventh inning
Friday night, a big letdown in a
weird game. He came through
the next time up, hitting a run-
ning-scoring single with one
out in the ninth inning that
gave the Cincinnati Reds a 4-3
victory over the Washington
Nationals.
Cairo got into the game as
a pinch-hitter. His single to the
gap in left-center was the third
straight hit off Colin Balester
(1-2), sending the Nationals to
their fourth straight loss.
The lights started going out
in the top of the seventh, when
a bank of them failed behind
first base. The umpires talked
to both managers and decided
to continue.
The game was halted when
another light bank went dark
in the eighth as hard-throwing
left-hander Aroldis Chapman
warmed up, prompting a
17-minute delay until they
could be restored.
Washingtons Wilson
Ramos hit a 3-run homer off
left-hander Dontrelle Willis,
who remained winless despite
matching his career high
with three hits and walking
five. Francisco Cordero (5-3)
escaped a scoring threat in the
ninth.
Brandon Phillips had a pair
of run-scoring singles on a
night when the postgame fire-
works were dedicated to his
musical tastes, using his favor-
ite summer tunes as the sound-
track. The second baseman got
the 35,089 fans cheering with
Todd Frazier tied it with a run-
scoring single in the seventh
off reliever Tom Gorzelanny.
Willis threw 123 pitches
and had the 15th multi-hit
game of his career but couldnt
get a win. The left-hander has
become the Reds hard-luck
pitcher. The bullpen has blown
a save in three of his starts.
Plus, he gets the worst run sup-
port on the staff.
Leftfielder Jonny Gomes
returned for the first time since
the Reds traded him for two
minor-leaguers on July 26. He
singled, walked, struck out and
ground out.
The Nationals had only one
hit in 14 at-bats with runners
in scoring position on Friday
night Wilson Ramos homer
in the fourth inning for a 3-1
lead.

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
Sunday, aug. 28, 2011
Those same situations that you
were unable to control in the past
should be quite manageable for you
in the coming year. This will be due
in part to you becoming surer of
yourself and not running away at the
first sign of trouble.
VIRgO (aug. 23-Sept. 22) --
For reasons important to you, youre
likely to be inclined to support an
unpopular cause. Fortunately, youll
have some very loyal allies within
your cadre wholl stand behind you.
LIBRa (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) --
Whether or not youll have success
will depend upon the intensity of
your motivation. Anything you want
badly enough you should be able to
get through sheer willpower.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-nov. 22)
-- Go ahead and discuss a problem
you havent been able to resolve on
your own, but dont talk it over with
just anybody. Select two or three of
your trusted pals to closely examine
the issues.
SagITTaRIuS (nov. 23-dec.
21) -- As long as you operate along
traditional lines and have the courage
of your convictions, your commercial
and financial dealings should unfold
in ways that youll like.
CaPRICORn (dec. 22-Jan. 19)
-- When it comes to your important
affairs, be as philosophical as
possible. Its important that you stay
on track, because the way ahead will
be rocky and full of distractions.
aQuaRIuS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
-- Fortunately, an associate who
thinks of you in friendly terms has
much more clout and power than you
realize, and could help out if asked to
do so. Ask nicely if youre in need.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
-- A partnership arrangement can
work out quite well for all parties
concerned, as long as everybody
continues to operate on the same
wavelength. Dont you be the fly in
the ointment.
aRIES (March 21-april 19) --
Conditions are favorable for getting
together with somebody who has
talents or abilities you lack but need
in order to move forward on an
important project youre working on.
TauRuS (april 20-May 20)
-- If need be, dont hesitate to take
a calculated risk on something you
backed off on previously. Its time
to play the odds, and advance that
special project youve been toiling
away at.
gEMInI (May 21-June 20)
-- Shield the interests of someone
with whom youre involved as
much as you protect your own,
and collectively you can pull off
something you couldnt do alone.
CanCER (June 21-July 22) --
Dont hesitate to introduce some new
but reasonable elements into a serious
discussion that youre negotiating
at this time, if you think they could
break the ice.
LEO (July 23-aug. 22) -- There
are major indications in your chart
that some constructive changes are
necessary and, in fact, are exactly
what you need in order to liven up
the high financial expectations others
have of you.

MOnday, aug. 29, 2011
Although your goals and
desires might not be realized in
rapid succession in the year ahead,
they can be reached one by one. If
youre not too impatient, substantial
improvements can be made that will
better your lifestyle.
VIRgO (aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If
youre planning a group endeavor,
get on the horn and do something
about bringing those you need
together. People wont jump on your
bandwagon unless theyre asked.
LIBRa (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) --
Dont be surprised if it seems like
everybodys attention is focused on
you. Because of the genuine concern
you show for them, people cant help
being drawn to you.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-nov.
22) -- What makes you such a
standout among your peers is your
philosophical outlook, which helps
you to not only acquire knowledge
but also to easily disseminate it as
needed.
SagITTaRIuS (nov. 23-dec.
21) -- Even some of your opponents
will be in awe of the way you handle
challenging developments that
suddenly arise. While others are
scurrying for cover, youll be settling
things.
CaPRICORn (dec. 22-Jan.
19) -- Although you tend to handle
things single-handedly, you might
establish a temporary partnership for
mutual reasons. Once your purposes
are accomplished, youll go your
own way.
aQuaRIuS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
-- There wont be anything selfish
about your current outlook. In fact,
your primary concern will be that
others fare as well as you. Youll
even offer whatever help you can.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
-- Dan Cupid is likely to be either
looking to revitalize an old romance
for you or casing the scene for a new
target at which he can aim. In either
case, things look good.
aRIES (March 21-april 19)
-- Getting off to a good start early
in the week will help make the work
you need to accomplish much easier
to finish within the next few days.
Youll be ahead of schedule.
TauRuS (april 20-May 20) --
Someone who can make your heart
beat faster might display much more
than a platonic interest in you. Itll be
up to you to let him or her know it is
welcomed.
gEMInI (May 21-June 20) --
Because youve been extra nice to
a number of pals lately, they might
want to do something special for you,
each in his or her own way.
CanCER (June 21-July 22)
-- Its quite possible that even those
friends who are closest to you arent
aware of your wants and desires.
Thus, you cant expect any help
from them unless you verbalize your
desires.
LEO (July 23-aug. 22) -- Some
of your greatest benefits this week are
likely to come from people you dont
even know. They wont be purposely
doing things on your behalf; itll just
turn out that way.

Metzger cleans up Jennings park for todays kids
Stacy Taff photo
Fort Jennings resident Chad Metzger recently spruced up the park he once played in
as a child for the benefit of his children and others in the village.

FORT JENNINGS
Having grown up playing on
the playground at the Fort
Jennings Park, it seems only
natural thats where Chad
Metzger and his wife Jessica
would bring their four young
children, Mason, Gabrielle,
Caleb and Kellan to play.
For as long as Metzger
could remember, the old play-
ground equipment had been
covered in peeling paint and
graffiti. However, it wasnt
until his daughter took notice
of the graffiti that he decided
it was time to fix things.
I had thought about it
before, Metzger said. I had
seen the peeling paint when
I was a kid and again when I
brought my kids here. But I
only decided to do it after my
daughter was up on top of the
big slide and asked me what
some of the words were that
people had written. I thought
they should be covered up.
After getting permission
from Jerry Siefker of the
Park Board, Metzger pro-
ceeded with his project this
last spring. Owner of a scrap
and steel hauling business
that cleans up woods, riv-
ers, burnt barns, houses and
more, Metzger provided the
materials for the project early
on.
I started with the springy
animal riding piece and
just provided the materials
myself, he said. Then Jerry
said they would provide the
rest of them and they ended
up putting about $700-$1,000
into it. I didnt end up paying
that much of it, I just donated
my time. The whole project
took about 80-90 man hours.
There were some days, some
of the hotter days, when I just
did a couple of hours here
and a couple there. It kept
me busy.
In addition to the animal
riding toy, Metzger worked
on both slides, the monkey
bars, the merry-go-round and
the wooden Ark.
I hadnt planned on
doing everything at first, but
after I did a piece I thought
it wouldnt look right to
have just one piece re-done,
Metzger said. So I sanded
down what I could of the
peeling paint and then pres-
sure washed the rest. Then I
re-painted it and put on some
Fort Jennings Musketeers
stickers. On the ark I also
put on a watch your step
sticker, to help prevent acci-
dents.
On the subject of safety,
Metzger revealed another
preventative measure he took
with the equipment.
On the animal riding toy
there are some holes on the
underside of each animal,
he said. Hornets would get
up in there and nest and when
the kids would bounce up and
down on it the hornets would
come out. I had it filled with
some foam so they couldnt
get in there. Any nook or
cranny hornets could nest in
was filled with foam.
By fixing up the play-
ground, Metzger hopes to
provide a more welcoming
place for the children of the
community to play.
I was hoping it might
get some more kids to come
back out here by giving it a
whole new look, he said. I
figured, maybe if you give
them something nice to play
on, theyll respect it a little
more and theyll take pride
in their park. This was just
my way of giving a little
something back to the com-
munity.

MOREHEAD CITY,
N.C. Whipping up trou-
ble before ever reaching
land, Hurricane Irene zeroed
in Friday for a catastrophic
run up the Eastern Seaboard.
More than 2 million people
were told to move to safer
places, and New York City
ordered its entire network of
subways shut down for the
first time because of a natural
disaster.
As the storms outermost
bands of wind and rain began
to lash the Outer Banks of
North Carolina, authorities in
points farther north begged
people to get out of harms
way. The hurricane lost some
strength but still packed 100
mph winds, and officials in
the Northeast, not used to
tropical weather, feared it
could wreak devastation.
Dont wait. Dont delay,
said President Barack Obama,
who decided to cut short his
summer vacation by a day
and return to Washington.
I cannot stress this highly
enough: If you are in the pro-
jected path of this hurricane,
you have to take precautions
now.
Senior hurricane specialist
Richard Pasch of the National
Hurricane Center said there
were signs that the hurricane
may have weakened slightly,
but strong winds continued
to extend 100 miles from its
center.
The moment when the
eye of the hurricane crosses
land is not as important as
just being in that big swath,
Pasch said. And unfortunate-
ly, its a big target.
Hurricane warnings were
issued from North Carolina
to New York, and watches
were posted farther north,
on the islands of Nantucket
and Marthas Vineyard off
Massachusetts. Evacuation
orders covered at least 2.3
million people, including
1 million in New Jersey,
315,000 in Maryland, 300,000
in North Carolina, 200,000
in Virginia and 100,000 in
Delaware.
This is probably the larg-
est number of people that
have been threatened by a
single hurricane in the United
States, said Jay Baker,
a geography professor at
Florida State University.
New York City ordered
more than 300,000 people
who live in flood-prone areas
to leave, including Battery
Park City at the southern tip of
Manhattan, Coney Island and
the beachfront Rockaways.
But it was not clear how many
would do it, how they would
get out or where they would
go. Most New Yorkers dont
have a car.
On top of that, the city said
it would shut down the sub-
ways and buses at noon today,
only a few hours after the first
rain is expected to fall. The
transit system carries about 5
million people on an average
weekday, fewer on weekends.
It has been shut down several
times before, including dur-
ing a transit workers strike
in 2005 and after the Sept.
11 attacks a decade ago, but
never for weather.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg
said there was little authori-
ties could do to force people
to leave.
We do not have the man-
power to go door-to-door
and drag people out of their
homes, he said. Nobodys
going to get fined. Nobodys
going to go to jail. But if you
dont follow this, people may
die.
Shelters were opening
Friday afternoon, and the city
was placed under its first hur-
ricane warning since 1985.
