According to a study by the Centers

for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), invasive MRSA methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
infections beginning in hospitals
have declined by 54 percent between
2005 and 2011, with 30,800 fewer
severe MRSA infections. In addition,
the study showed 9,000 fewer deaths in
hospital patients in 2011 versus those
in 2005.
The CDC reports roughly one in
three people carry staph, which is usu-
ally found on the skin or in the nose;

and two in 100 people carry MRSA.
Most of the time, these germs dont
pose a health threat. But MRSA a
staph bacteria that is resistant to antibiotics can cause life-threatening
infections.
Allen County Health Departments
Director of Nursing Becky Dershem
said germs live everywhere on the
human body; its when they find their
way into other atypical areas of the
body that they become a problem.
When someone is ill and prescribed
antibiotics, sometimes they do not finish the course of medication (they save
some for later), Dershem said. So, the
bacteria mutates from the medication

and the human becomes the perfect
incubator for the new strain of bacteria.
People need to follow their prescription
and take all their medications.
Developing a MRSA infection in
a healthcare setting is referred to as
hospital-acquired MRSA (HA-MRSA)
and is spread by medical staff and
equipment to patients. The bacteria
can cause surgical-site infections with
the potential of moving into the bloodstream or organs, causing infections
in the bone marrow, septic shock and
multiple organ failure.
Hospitals have been very aggressive with active hand washing cam-
paigns and use of hand sanitizer,

Dershem explained. The healthcare
community has become much more
discreet with antibiotic prescriptions.
Staph bacteria can be spread simply
through skin-to-skin contact, which
is known as community-associated
MRSA (CA-MRSA). The CDC reports
that often, people first think the area is
a spider bite; however, unless a spider
is actually seen, the irritation is likely not a spider bite. Most staph skin
infections, including MRSA, appear
as a bump or infected area on the skin
that might be:

State advises
to be cautious
burning debris
COLUMBUS (AP)
Natural resources officials are
reminding Ohioans about the
states outdoor burning regulations for spring as warmer
weather approaches.
State forester Robert
Boyles says most wildfires in
Ohio are caused by people
who are careless when they
burn trash or other debris.
Ohio law bans outdoor
debris burning from 6 a.m.
to 6 p.m. during March, April
and May.
The states Department of
Natural Resources says that
burning is limited in the spring
because of an abundance of
dry fuel on the ground. Winds
also can make a fire burn more
intensely and escape control.
Violators of Ohios burning
regulations could face citations or fines.
Judge sets hearing on Cincinnati

terrorism suspects phone access
CINCINNATI (AP) A federal
judge will hear arguments on the governments request that she restrict phone
access for a man accused of plotting to
attack the U.S. Capitol.
Prosecutors filed their motion last
week in the case of Christopher Lee
Cornell, in the aftermath of his surprise
call from jail to Cincinnatis WXIX-TV.
The 20-year-old suburban Cincinnati
man who has pleaded not guilty to
charges in the case was recorded saying
if he hadnt been arrested, he would have
gone to Washington and shot President
Barack Obama in the head and carried
out other attacks.
Prosecutors say allowing phone

access to a self-proclaimed supporter
of Islamic State militants raises security
concerns, saying he could contact others
supporting a terrorist organization or
attempt to solicit, incite or engage in
other acts of violence.
Judge Sandra Beckwith scheduled
a hearing Tuesday afternoon on the
motion. Court records Sunday didnt
show a defense response being filed yet.
The motion asked Beckwith to limit
Cornells phone usage to court-approved contacts, such as his attorneys
and immediate family members. A
Boone County (Kentucky) Jail official
last week declined a reporters request

to talk with Cornell, who has asked to
be called by his Muslim name Raheel
Mahrus Ubaydah.
His attorneys had argued unsuccessfully in court against allowing his
WXIX-TV interview to air, saying it
could violate the defendants right to a
fair trial.
The FBI arrested Cornell outside
a Cincinnati gun shop Jan. 14. A federal indictment charges Cornell with
attempted murder of government
employees and officials, solicitation to
commit a crime of violence, and a firearms-related count.

Allen County Historical Society offers

The Story of the Great Black Swamp
INFORMATION SUBMITTED
LIMA The Allen County Historical
Society will host The Story of the
Great Black Swamp at 2 p.m. March 29
at the Allen County Museum.
The Great Black Swamp was a wetland in northwest Ohio and extreme
northeast Indiana that existed from the
end of the Wisconsin glaciation period
until the late 19th century. It occupied
what was formerly the southwestern part
of Glacial Lake Maumee, a precursor to

Lake Erie. The area was about 25 miles
wide by 100 miles long and covered
about 1,500 square miles.
Created by Joseph Arpad and produced by WBGU-TV in 1982, The
Story of the Great Black Swamp is a
folklife documentary about the swamp.
The film explains how the swamp was
created during the glacial ages, how it
thwarted peoples efforts to settle the
area for thousands of years, and how it
became an obstacle to pioneer travel and

settlements in the Midwest. It explains
how people learned to traverse the area,
and in so doing, learned how to settle
it. Finally the program narrates how
the swamp was obliterated by modern
technology and machinery, turning it
into a vast flatland that is intensively
farmed today.
This program is fee and open to the
public.
Private records management

raises access questions in Ohio
COLUMBUS (AP) Questions are being raised about
access to public records in Ohio when private companies or
proprietary software is used to manage the records.
Last year, the state attorney general determined that a county recorder did not have the authority to charge a monthly subscription fee to individuals to view records maintained online
by a private company.
But in 2013, the Ohio Supreme Court upheld a county
engineers determination that providing map records to a real
estate appraiser carried a $2,000 price tag because of proprietary software used to produce them.
When these contracts are negotiated, citizen access to the
information should be part of the negotiations, said Dennis
Hetzel, executive director of the Ohio Newspaper Association.
Attorney General Mike DeWine issued the opinion on
county recorder documents after Monroe County charged
a $15 monthly subscription fee to people accessing records
online.
The county said the fee was the cost the auditor was
charged by the company it contracted with to maintain the
online access.
Nothing in state law allows a county recorder to charge a
fee for making records available for inspection on a county
website, DeWines office said.
Many smaller counties rely on private companies to manage document flow. In Holmes County, county recorder Anita
Hall has a 5-year contract with Davenport, Iowa-based Fidlar
Technologies to provide online access to documents. She paid
the company $18,000 last year out of fees from individuals
registering documents such as mortgages with the office.
Document copies are free for individuals who print them
out at home or 25 cents a page in the recorders office.
Without hiring a contractor, it would take an in-house IT
department to manage the records and keep them online, said
Hall, president of the state recorders association.
In 2012, real estate appraiser Bob Gambill asked the state
Supreme Court to order the Scioto County engineer to provide
him copies of maps hed requested at their actual cost. The
engineers office said it would cost $2,000 to retrieve the data

by separating it from copyright-protected software files.
The office said it was not permitted to reproduce or transmit the software program to third parties such as Gambill
without contacting the company to extract the data.
Gambill said he knew it would cost more in legal fees than
just buying the maps, but he wanted to take a stand.
I felt like it was a bigger fight at that point than me getting
the maps, he said in a recent interview.
In a 6-1 decision, the court said that, while it questioned
the charges, Scioto County engineer Craig Opperman had
justified them with evidence presented to the court.
Our issue was, we cant provide proprietary information to
an individual upon request, because that is owned by the company, when youre asking for electronic files, Opperman said.
Dissenting Justice Paul Pfeifer said the county engineer
was asking citizens to pay an exorbitant price to untie the
knot created by the private software.
The holding in this case encourages public entities desiring secrecy to hide public records within a software lockbox
and require individual citizens to provide the golden key to
unlock it, Pfeifer wrote.

Elections chief
seeks money
for absentee
applications
COLUMBUS (AP)
Ohios elections chief wants
state lawmakers to set aside
more than $1 million for his
office to send unsolicited
absentee-ballot applications
to voters ahead of the next
presidential election.
The funding request
comes after the Republicancontrolled
General
Assembly passed a law last
year imposing greater control over such mailings in
the political swing state.
The law bars county elections boards from mailing
unsolicited applications.
It permits the secretary of
state to send them for general elections, only if the
Legislature appropriates the
money for it.
Secretary of State Jon
Husted, a Republican, has
twice mailed the unsolicited applications statewide
using federal dollars from
the Help America Vote Act.
But his office says the federal money is not available
for 2016. It cost about $1.5
million to send the applications in 2012 and nearly
$985,000 in 2014.
Husted is asking the
Legislature for $1.25 million to continue to fund the
statewide mailings in 2016.
Matt
Damschroder,
assistant secretary of state,
told a legislative panel last
Tuesday that during the last
presidential election, about
a third of Ohio voters cast
their ballots before Election
Day, primarily by mail,
which helped the state avoid
long lines at the polls.
Damschroder said the
perennial battleground Ohio
will see increased attention
in 2016 as it hosts at least
one presidential debate and
the Republicans hold their
presidential
nominating
convention in Cleveland.
In the grand scheme
of things, $1.25 million
is a small price to pay to
ensure that when all eyes
are on Ohio, we deliver
another smooth Presidential
Election, he said in written
testimony.

Now, Where Was That?
NEW YORK (AP) Let It Go

may be Walt Disneys anthem these
days, but Everythings Coming Up
Roses might be the more accurate
theme song for the Disney juggernaut.
Disneys recent streak continued over
the weekend with the $70.1 million
North American debut of its traditional,
sumptuously costumed fairy tale adaptation Cinderella, according to studio
estimates Sunday. Interest in the film,
directed by Kenneth Branagh and starring Lily James of Downton Abbey,
was boosted by a Frozen short,
Frozen Fever, that played before the
feature.
Disneys box-office surge has been
propelled partly by the so-called halo
effect of Frozen, a sequel to which
Disney announced last week. But its
also been driven by the appeal of seeing Disney cartoon classics turned
into live-action fantasies. Cinderella
follows previous live-action hits like
Maleficent (whose May 2014 debut
of $69.4 million Cinderella narrowly
bested) and Alice in Wonderland.
The holiday release Into the Woods,
from the Stephen Sondheim musical,
added to the live-action trend, and
many more are on the way. The Jungle
Book, Beauty and the Beast and
Dumbo are all coming in live action,
as is a sequel to Alice in Wonderland.
Disney has also found big profits in
capitalizing on female moviegoers, who
made up the largest chunk of Frozen
and Maleficent fans. The audience
for Cinderella was 66 percent female,
Disney said.
There is seemingly a lot of appetite for these stories to be told, I think,
in part because many of them have
a female protagonist and weve seen
theres significant box-office success
that can come by featuring female-driven stories, said Dave Hollis, head of
distribution at Disney.
Frozen Fever was certainly part
of why were seeing the kind of success

that we did this weekend, Hollis said.
In and of itself, Cinderella is absolutely a great stand-alone experience. But it
ends up being a one-plus-one-equalsthree thing for the consumer.
The success of Cinderella, which
cost about $95 million to make, was
international. It made $62.4 million overseas, including $25 million
in China. Disney could also celebrate
Big Hero 6 becoming the top-grossing
worldwide animated release of 2014; the
Oscar-winner has made $633 million
globally.
With Disneys high-priced but lucrative ownership of Marvel, Lucasfilm
and Pixar, the studio will be flexing its
strength throughout 2015 with releases
like The Avengers: Age of Ultron,
Inside Out and Star Wars: The Force
Awakens.
Disney is just a well-oiled machine
that is firing on all cylinders right now,
says Paul Dergarbedian, senior media
analyst for box-office data firm Rentrak.
Its about this Disney umbrella which
encompasses these incredible crown
jewel brands they have. Cinderella is
just the latest example.
While Disney was flexing its might,
the powers of another box-office force,
Liam Neeson, were checked. Neesons
latest thriller, Run All Night, a New
York crime saga co-starring Ed Harris,
opened with $11 million for Warner
Bros.
The films poor performance marks
the weakest debut for the Taken star
as an action film lead. Dergarbedian
noted Neesons appeal is strongest in
PG-13 rated films (all three Taken
films, Non-Stop), while weaker in
R-rated releases like Run All Night
and last years A Walk Among the
Tombstones.
Last weeks top film, the sci-fi thriller
Chappie, from District 9 director
Neill Blomkamp, slid to fifth with $5.8
million for Sony Pictures.
Obama joins in jokefest with

GOPs Walker at Gridiron dinner
WASHINGTON (AP) Getting older changes a guy,
President Barack Obama says, and he admits hes getting
crankier.
Next week Im signing an executive order to get off my
lawn, Obama joked Saturday night at the Gridiron Club
and Foundations annual dinner. On top of that, the nations
graying chief executive says hes having trouble now with his
morning cup of joe. Coffee really disagrees with me these
days, he says, which is why John Boehner just invited coffee
to address the joint House.
Obamas standup routine drew laughs from the audience of
more than 650 journalists, lawmakers, administration officials,
military officials and others at the Gridirons 130th gathering.
By tradition, Washington insiders put aside their differences
for an evening of laughter, schmoozing and charity fundraising.
With the president providing the gibes on behalf of his
administration, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Virginia
Gov. Terry McAuliffe sharpened their wits for the Republicans
and Democrats, respectively. Walker is considering a run for
the GOP nomination for president while McAuliffes political
connections extend to his work as Democratic Party chairman
and Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton ally.
Obama targeted himself Just a few years ago I couldnt
imagine being in my 50s. Given my approval ratings, I still
cant as well as people in the government and the media
that cover it.
Noting that Walker remarked recently that he couldnt say
whether Obama was a Christian, the president said his religion
taught forgiveness and cracked, So, Gov. Walker, salaam
alaikum.
Obama said he generally likes Boehner, the House speaker,
and noted talk of unhappy House Republicans planning a coup

Walker got in his own digs. I believe that the president
of the United States loves America and every American
except Rudy Giuliani. He also joked about his failure to
finish his college degree as he envisioned himself in the White
House: If my first term is anything like college, I wont make
it through four years.
McAuliffe joined others in needling the presidential ambitions of Hillary Clinton. If Hillary decides not to run I
decided not to finish that joke, he said. He also joked, Are
any of the Secret Service sober enough to drive me home?
The Gridiron Club and Foundation, founded in 1885, has
drawn every president after Grover Cleveland to its annual
dinner at least once. Obama made his third appearance, having
attended in 2011 and 2013.
An early script for the evenings musical send-ups
included a jab at Republicans preparing presidential campaigns, sung to the tune of If I Only Had a Brain from
The Wizard of Oz. One stanza singled out former Texas
Gov. Rick Perry: Hed be talking to reporters, bout walling up the borders/ Itd be a fine campaign./And his head
hed be scratchin while his thoughts were busy hatchin/If
he only had a brain.
To the tune of Taylor Swifts Shake It Off came this
crack aimed at Hillary Clinton: First ladys second-rate/
an secretary-ya state/Those jobs dont satiate/this hungry
candidate./Well Benghazi left not trace, those emails got
erased/Thats the Clinton way-ee-ya. What eye do is okayee-ya.
Active membership in the Gridiron Club and Foundation is
limited to 65 journalists based in Washington. Money raised
through the dinner goes to college scholarships and journalistic organizations.
Detroit-area man who walked

miles to work gets new apartment
DETROIT (AP) A man
who said he walked 21 miles
to and from work each day
is settling into a new, suburban Detroit apartment after
receiving thousands of dollars
in online donations
James Robertson said he
feels more secure in Oakland
Countys Troy after moving
north from his Detroit home
to escape people asking him
for money, the Detroit Free
Press said Sunday.
The 56-year-old gained
celebrity after the newspaper
reported earlier this year that
he began walking to a job at
an auto parts factory when his
car stopped working in 2005
and bus service was cut back.
A local college student
launched a modest crowdfunding campaign to a buy a new
car. It led to $360,000 eventually being raised and Robertson
receiving a new, $35,000 Ford
Taurus from an auto dealership.
I may have been born
there, but God knows I dont
belong there anymore,
Robertson said about his old

neighborhood near Detroits
New Center area.
The plastic-molding operator also said he didnt tell
people in his old neighborhood where he was moving.
He still works at the same
factory in Rochester Hills,
which pays him $10.55 an
hour, but the hours-long
walking trip now is done in a
20-minute drive.
Im going to keep working thats for sure, he told
the newspaper.
The one-bedroom apartment in Troy costs him $800
a month in rent. He had been
paying $880 per month for
less space in his ex-girlfriends home in Detroit.
Most of his money now is in
a trust that has a principal amount
of $351,000. The earnings from
the trust should be enough to keep
Robertsons nest egg untouched
until he retires, said Rebecca
Sorensen, a UBS Financial
Services senior vice president for
wealth management.

GENERAL
Question:
Someone stole my Social Security
number, and its being used repeatedly.
Does Social Security issue new Social
Security numbers to victims of repeated
identity theft?
Answer:
Identity theft is one of the fastest growing crimes in America, so you arent alone.
If youve done all you can to identify and
fix the problem, including contacting the
Federal Trade Commission, but someone is
still using your number, Social Security may
assign you a new number. If
you decide to apply for a
new number, youll need to
prove your identity, age, and
U.S. citizenship or immigration status. Youll also need
to provide evidence youre
having ongoing problems
because of the misuse of
your current Social Security
number. You can read more
about identity theft at www.
socialsecurity.gov/pubs.
Question:
Now that my husband and I have a
large family, weve hired a housekeeper
that comes once a week. Do we have to
withhold Social Security taxes from our
housekeepers earnings?
Answer:
It depends on how much youre paying
the housekeeper. If you pay a housekeeper
or other household worker $1,900 or more
in cash wages throughout the year, you must
deduct Social Security and Medicare taxes.
This holds true for a cleaning person, cook,
gardener, babysitter, or anyone else who
provides services for you. In addition, you
must report these wages once a year. There
are exceptions, for example, when you
are hiring a company or independent contractor and paying them a fee for services
instead of wages to an individual. You can
learn more about household workers and
tax deductions by reading our publication,
Household Workers, at www.socialsecurity.
gov/pubs.
Retirement
Question:
Although I stopped working a few
years ago, I had additional seasonal
earnings after my retirement. Will my
monthly Social Security retirement benefit increase?
Answer:
Possibly. And, you can get Social Security
retirement or survivors benefits and work at
the same time. Each year, we review the

records for all working Social Security

Kentucky leads the way with

top spot in March Madness
By EDDIE PELLS
Associated Press
The Kentucky Wildcats ended up
where everyone expected them on
Selection Sunday: Seeded No. 1 on their
quest to become the first undefeated
team since 1976.
Oh but there were surprises when the
bracket came out, too.
Big-conference UCLA and Texas
made it. Colorado State and Temple
did not.
Wisconsin is a No. 1 seed for the
first time in program history. But the
Badgers must play in the West Region,
where second-seeded Arizona is certain
to draw more fans.
As for those play-in games Tuesday
and Wednesday in Dayton. Well, one of
the teams playing is Dayton a No.
11 seed that will have a distinct homecourt advantage against Boise State.
Generally, thats not allowed during
the tournament but theres an exception
because the committee said the Flyers
were the last team in and, thus, had to
play in the opening-round game.
It falls within our policies and procedures, selection committee chairman
Scott Barnes said. Its obviously a
home-court advantage but we didnt
waver from that decision.
The action starts in full on Thursday,
when Kentucky headlines the action
AVONDALE, Ariz.
There have been dominant
drivers in NASCAR before,
seasons where Jeff Gordon or
Jimmie Johnson would reel off
win after win to break the spirits of the rest of the garage.
Dale Earnhardt had
stretches where he was
unbeatable, Tony Stewarts
had his share of hot streaks
and Rusty Wallace had an
unbelievable 1993 season
that opened with four wins in
eight races.
But it has been 41 years
since NASCAR has seen a run
like the one Kevin Harvick is
making across the country.
The defending Sprint Cup
champion won his fourth
consecutive race at Phoenix
International Raceway on
Sunday with yet another rout of the field. The 42
other drivers knew this was
Harvicks race to win and he
made it look easy.
He led more than 200 laps
for the third straight time at

Phoenix, where he has won
five of the last six races and a
record seven overall.
More important, he continued a streak of dominance
that dates to last season. He
has seven consecutive top-2
finishes and has won four
of the last six races, which
includes the final two of last
years championship season.
Dating back to the Chase last
season, Harvick has won five
of the last 10 races.
He opened this season
with two runner-up finishes,
then won last week at Las
Vegas and now Phoenix.
The last driver score seven
consecutive top-2 finishes? Hallof-Famer Richard Petty in 1974.
When you said the
Richard Petty part, that gives
me chills, Harvick replied
after learning the Petty stat.
He then praised his
Rodney Childers-led team,
which has given him unbelievable race cars since he
first climbed in the No. 4
Chevrolet in late 2013.
against the winner of a play-in game

between No. 16 seeds Manhattan and
Hampton. A 1 has never lost to a 16.
The other No. 1 seeds were Villanova
in the East and Duke in the South. Those
were pretty easy picks.
And then there was the total
no-brainer placing Kentucky
at the very top of the bracket.
The Wildcats defeated Arkansas
78-63 on Sunday to improve
to 34-0. If they win six more,
theyll become the first team
since then 1975-76 Indiana
Hoosiers to go undefeated.
I think I have the best team and the
best players, said coach John Calipari,
trying to lead the Wildcats to their ninth
national title. Does that mean well
win? No, it doesnt.
Barnes called the UCLA pick one of
the tougher decisions we had to make. But
he defended putting the Bruins (20-13) in
the bracket despite an RPI of 48, which is
18 spots lower than Colorado State.
We felt they were gaining steam,
Barnes said. They did have a good
strength-of-schedule, they were playing
better against tough competition. An
example is the last game against Arizona
(a 70-64 loss in the Pac-12 title game).
I think the eye test was also a plus in
putting them in the field.
The Big Ten and Big 12 led the way
by placing seven teams each in the
bracket.
Other teams that just missed were
Old Dominion and Richmond, which
lost out to teams like Ole Miss and Texas
that have stronger schedules baked into
the cake because they play in
major conferences.
As is custom, Barnes was
short on specifics, though he
said Wyomings surprise victory in the Mountain West
Conference stole away an
at-large bid that wouldve
gone to Temple.
The 68-team bracket
includes its usual share of quirks and
tear-jerkers.
UCLAs first game is against SMU,
coached by Larry Brown, the 74-yearold turnaround artist who is taking his
third team to the NCAA Tournament.
The first team? UCLA, of course.
Georgia State coach Ron Hunter
watched the bracket unveiling with his
left foot in a cast. He tore his Achilles
tendon while celebrating his programs
first trip to the tournament since 2001.
The 14th-seeded Panthers open against
Baylor.
Also seeded No. 14 is Albany,
which made the tournament on a
3-pointer with 1 second left by Peter
Hooley, whose mother died six weeks
ago. No. 14 Albany opens against
Oklahoma State.
Troike too powerful for Lady Green

By JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
ELIDA Fostoria St.

Wendelin only had three
players score Saturday night.
However, when one of
them was a dominant 6-3
junior Kamryn Troike 33
points, 17 boards, six blocks,
two assists and a steal the
Lady Mohawks really didnt
need much else as they dispatched Ottoville 49-36 in a
Division IV Regional final on
the Union Bank Court of the
Elida Fieldhouse.
Shes a great player. Shes
6-3 and very hard to stop with
her size, said Ottoville mentor Dave Kleman, who ends
his 23rd year at the Lady
Green helm with a 433-113
mark. Shes a load to keep
from the basket on offense
but shes flat-out intimidating
on defense. When we got the
ball inside, she either blocked
it shes an eraser or she
affected it in another way.
Their point guard (Makenzie
McAfee) is pretty good, too.
St. Wendelin coach Aaron
M. Smith figures his game
plan is pretty simple.
Well take a 2-footer all
game long if at all possible.
I think we can figure out
how to use her talents, he
explained. We have other
girls that we dont ask to
score a lot; they can but when
we take care of the ball and
dont turn it over, Kamryn is
going to carry us.
The Lady Green (19-8)
knew they had to contend with
Troike all night long, so the
Harvick makes it 4 straight

wins at Phoenix with a rout
By JENNA FRYER
Associated Press
I feel like we get better as

we go through different situations, Harvick said. You see
these guys hang out together, how mellow everybody is,
how everybody gets along. Its
really, really special to be a
part of. Its scary how well
we get along with each other.
I dont want to talk about it
sometimes so I dont jinx it.
Harvick now heads to
California looking to sweep
NASCARs three-race West
Coast swing. Its not out of
the question, particularly
with how well hes running.
But Harvick won at Auto
Club Speedway in 2011, and
has been among the best drivers there since 2009.
I think at this point, everybody just expects you to keep
winning. Thats what makes
it hard on all of us, Childers
said. Weve got a team that
can do that. We have a driver
that can do that. We have the
resources to do that. The more
you win, the more you expect
out of yourself and the more
pressure you put on yourself.
Ottoville senior Annie Lindeman and her Lady Green

teammates had a tough hill to climb Saturday night against
St. Wendelins Kamryn Troike and the Lady Mohawks.
They fell in 49-36 in a Division IV Regional final at the
Elida Fieldhouse. (DHI Media/Kenny Poling)
game plan was to try to force
an up-tempo game and keep
her out of a comfort zone, as
well as wear down the very
thin Mohawks (24-4), who
had three injured players and
only played six total.
That goal never came to
fruition. With FSW making a
concerted effort to get the ball
to their force inside and
basically keep any pressure
the Lady Green could muster
(15 turnovers) from getting
out of hand they were successful. Troike scored nine
markers in the first period
alone (to go with 6 boards),
with lone senior Allie Rutter
(14 counters 10-of-12 free
throws) scoring the other
markers on free throws. On
the other end, Wendelin was
using a diamond-and-1 to
defend Ottovilles top scorer, Annie Lindeman (with

either Krystal Krout or
Peighton Troike face-guarding her to the tune of 3
points on 1-of-5 shooting).
They limited Ottoville to
six field-goal tries (all misses) and 3-of-4 foul shots.
When Rutter dropped her
two freebies at 21.3 ticks,
FSW led 11-3.
The pace continued the
Mohawks way in the second
stanza, with the Green and
Gold unable to really crank
up its full-court pressure. The
only time they got rolling
and the Mohawks appeared
to be tiring was in the last
1:30 when they turned over
their foe three times and led to
a 7-point outburst by Brooke
Mangas (11 counters, 4 steals,
3 boards), with her transition

triple from the right wing at
12 ticks getting them within
16-15. When Rutter hit the 1stof-2 singles at 5.2 ticks, that
gave Fostoria a 17-15 lead.
Thats about the only
time we really got on a roll.
We really wanted to force
turnovers and turn them into
points, Kleman observed.
We did get some but we
couldnt convert on the other
end. We had shots but we
couldnt put them in; offense
was our struggle tonight.
Annie has been carrying us
quite a bit; we were prepared
for their face-guarding but we
needed others to hit shots.
The halftime break proved
medicinal for FSW, getting
its second wind. With the
Mohawk defense forcing others to score, the Lady Green
missed its first 11 shots of
the period. On the other
end, Ottoville simply had no
answer for the large-and-incharge Troike, who canned
five fielders as they steadily
added to their lead. It reached
29-15 on a pair of tosses
by Rutter at 1:04. Ottoville
finally got a Bridget Landin
foul shot at 53.8 ticks to
break the dooming drought,
followed by a Mangas steal
and layin (26 ticks). After a
lob to Troike at 9.1 ticks, a
trifecta by Landin (8 markers, 7 caroms, 3 thefts) from
the right wing that bounced
around the rim and in to beat
the horn got the Green and
Gold within 31-21.

Bluffton University Roundup

Lady Beavers fall twice on diamond
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. The Bluffton University softball team
made the long trip to Grand Rapids, Mich., to play a pair of top-notch
opponents at the Farmers Insurance Complex on Saturday.
Davenport improved to 15-3 with an 11-0 mercy-rule victory
in game one before Alma plated four scores in the top of the
seventh for a 7-5 come-from-behind win over the Beavers in
their second contest of the afternoon.
Bluffton dipped to 7-5 after a day in which the Beavers
kicked it around the diamond to the tune of seven errors.
Davenport took advantage of four Bluffton errors in the first
two innings as the Panthers rolled to a commanding 7-0 lead.
Freshman Josie McElroy (Mt. Orab/Western Brown) beat out an
infield single with one down in the second, but that was the only
hit Bluffton could muster as Davenport continued to put crooked
numbers on the scoreboard in the third and fourth frames, adding up to an 11-0 victory when the dust settled midway through
the fifth inning.
Senior Chloe Shell (Covington) took the loss after allowing
nine runs, five earned, on 10 hits in three innings of work. She
struck out two and did not issue a walk while dropping to 3-2
on the season. Emily Kolezynski (Strongsville) fanned two
Panthers in the bottom of the fourth frame.
Blufftons fielding woes continued when the Beavers
allowed three unearned tallies to Alma in the top of the first
inning of game two. The Bluffton offense finally got untracked
in the bottom of the second thanks to doubles by Jess Kuzara
(Flat Rock, Mich./Huron) and Carly Levindofske (Brunswick/
Magnificat). Kuzara and McElroy both crossed the dish on
Levindofskes 2-bagger down the right field line. Two batters
later, Levindofske stole home, knotting the game at 3-3.
McElroys ground ball to second plated Brittany Baker
(Springboro) and Levindofskes single up the middle picked up
Kuzara in the bottom of the third for a 5-3 Bluffton lead. The
Beavers maintained their 2-run advantage until the seventh
when Alma used four hits, a pair of walks and a Bluffton error to
push four runs across the dish.
With two outs Bluffton put two runners on base but Alma
capped off the comeback with a strikeout to secure the 7-5
victory.
Levindofske, who paced the offense with three RBI,
went 2-of-3 with a run scored. Kuzara and McElroy chipped
in with two safeties apiece. Freshman starter Jessie Madzia
(Massillon/Tuslaw) gave up three runs, none earned, on seven
hits with two strikeouts but did not factor into the decision.
Sophomore Emily Scupholm (Cuyahoga Falls/Our Lady of the

Elms) surrendered four runs on two hits with two walks in one
inning of relief. She dropped to 1-2 on the season.
The Beavers welcome #7 Trine University for the 2015
home opener on Wednesday, kicking off a busy slate of games
that includes trips to Capital on Thursday and Alma on Saturday.
The first pitch against the Thunder is slated for 3:30 p.m.
Everett named All-American
WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina - Sophomore Trey
Everett (Sidney/Fairlawn) returned to Bluffton Saturday a
newly-minted All American athlete following competition at the
NCAA Division III Indoor Track & Field Championship.
Competing at the JDL Fast Track facility in Winston-Salem,
NC, Everett placed 3rd among the 15 men from across the
nation who qualified for the event. Electing to pass on the opening height, Everett entered the competition at 6 6.25 which he
cleared on his first attempt. He cleared the next height in the
progression, 6 8.25, again on his first attempt. With nine men
remaining in the competition, Everett attempted 6 9.75 which
he missed on first attempt but cleared on his second try.
With just three of the nine moving on to the next height, the
bar was raised to 6 11 which Everett cleared in a clutch-performance third attempt while his fellow competitors, Dominique
Neloms of Wisconsin-LaCrosse and Steven Vasquez of Rhode
Island College, cleared on their first and second attempts,
respectively. These clearances would eventually determine the
finish of the top three as none of them cleared the next height
of 7 0.25.
I am very proud of Trey and Coach McCoy (jumps coach)
for what they accomplished today, said Head Coach Karen
Brandt. Trey becomes the first indoor All American in Bluffton
University history and a worthy one indeed. He doesnt take
his talent for granted but works hard and makes the sacrifices
necessary, big and small, for him to fine tune his skills. Coach
McCoy met him after the awards ceremony with a bottle of
Pepsi, the first he allowed himself since the season began.
It was a great nationals for the HCAC conference as a
whole. Five athletes qualified for the national meet and all five
finished in All America positions (top 8). When you think of
the thousands of athletes across the country who compete in
collegiate track and field, to be among the top 15 men or 17
women who qualify is an honor in itself. To then hold up to the
pressure of knowing you are competing against the best in the
nation and emerge as an All American is truly an outstanding
accomplishment.

wrestler puts on his list before the season starts is to make it to the third day
at the state tournament.
Two area athletes did just that competing in the 78th annual O.H.S.A.A
meet held at The Jerome Schottenstein
Center on the Ohio State University
campus that wrapped up on Saturday.
Delphos St. Johns senior Wes
Buettner went 3-0 with a pin in the
preliminary rounds to get his chance
at the 195-pound state title (Division
III) against Middletown Madisons Nick
Svarda.
After a spectacular Parade of
Champions, the two took center stage
on the floor of the Schottenstein Center.
Svarda led 4-2 after the first period with
a pair of takedowns and Buettner scored
with two escapes.
Buettner got within one with his third
escape but still trailed 6-4 after the second period ended.
Svarda held off shot after shot
attempted by Buettner and held on to
win the title 7-5.
Buettner (46-5) becomes the third
wrestling state runner-up in school history, joining Art Vonderwell (1985) and
Gerry Wegesin (1982).
Svarda got those two early takedowns and I couldnt catch back up,
explained Buettner after the match. I
was aggressive with numerous shots but
Svarda stayed low and didnt allow me
to finish my moves. My quickness definitely helped out down here and I felt
stronger than anybody in my class. My
goal was to be state champion but I left
it all out there on the mat. So I have no
regrets and I am proud of what I accomplished in my career at St. Johns.
Buettner ends his Blue Jay wrestling
career with a school record 141 wins.
Coach Derek Sterling maybe wishes
there were more Buettners available to
wrestle as Wess family has 321 wins
with his brother Wills 121 and father/
coach Keith with his 59.
Wes also is the third member of the
family to make an appearance at the
state meet. Wess 46 victories this year
also broke Wills single-season school
record of 44 wins.
Wayne Trace junior George Clemons,
making his third state appearance, won
his first two matches before falling 9-6
in the semifinals Friday night.

Spieth wins at
Innisbrook in playoff
Associated Press
PALM HARBOR, Fla. Jordan Spieth and his world-class

short game came up big in a playoff victory Sunday at the
Valspar Championship.
Spieth capped off an afternoon of back-nine charges, clutch
putts and unseemly par saves by making a 30-foot birdie putt
on the third extra hole of a playoff at Innisbrook to beat Ryder
Cup teammates Patrick Reed and Sean OHair.
A crazy back nine, said Spieth, who won for the second
time in his PGA Tour career and fourth time worldwide to
reach a career-high No. 6 in the world.
The 21-year-old Spieth was three shots behind with six
holes to play when he made two birdies to catch a faltering
Ryan Moore, then saved par on his final three holes for a
2-under 69 to join the playoff. And these par saves were not
what anyone would call routine.
With his right foot in the bunker and his left foot on grass
well
above the ball in the sand, he blasted out to 3 feet on the
Wes Buettner of Delphos St. Johns works to get one of his four escapes he
16th. From deep rough on a hill, he hit a flop shot to a short pin
earned during his championship match with Middletown Madisons Nick Svar- to 6 feet to stay tied for the lead. And he holed a 12-foot par
da. Buettner came just short (7-5) but became the first Blue Jay runner-up at putt on the 18th that fell in the left side of the cup.
the state tournament in 30 years. (DHI Media/Larry Heiing)
Reed was just as impressive with his short game to keep his
hopes alive in the eighth and perhaps most compelling playoff
on the PGA Tour this season. He buried a 30-foot birdie putt
on the 18th hole for a bogey-free 66, pumping his fist as if he
were still in Gleneagles at the Ryder Cup.
Reed was the first to finish at 10-under 274.
On the 18th hole in a playoff, he was buried in the lip of a
bunker, blasted out to just under 10 feet and made par to stay in
the game after Spieth missed from 10 feet. On the next playoff
hole, the tough 16th, Reed had no chance well behind the green
in grass so deep he could barely see his ball. That came out
perfectly for another par.
Reed, who went the final 29 holes without a bogey on the
Copperhead course, never had a chance to try for a third par
save when Spieth hit the winner.

Wes Buettner stands in the runner-up spot in the 195-pound weight category
after Saturday nights championship match.
Dropping to the consolation bracket

on Saturday morning, Clemons faced
Aric Peters of Bethel Tate. After surrendering a takedown in the first period,
Clemons trailed 2-1 with an escape after
two. Clemons was aggressive trying to
land a shot but Peters fought off every
surge for a close 2-1 victory.
In Clemons final match of the
3-day tournament, the Raider wrestler
suffered a 13-0 major-decision loss to
Mechanicsburgs Tanner Smith. Clemons
became the highest placer at the wrestling
state tournament in school history, replacing Sawyer Temple (7th in 2013).
Clemons ends the season with 44-7
record and also became Wayne Traces
career wrestling wins leader with 137 with
one more season remaining for the Raiders.

For Ottoville to keep its hopes for a State

berth alive, they needed a rally for the ages in
the fourth period. St. Wendelin would have
none of it. After Troike (13-of-19 from the
floor and 7-of-9 from the line) scored first,
Nicole Kramer drained a triple at 7:22 to get
Ottoville within 33-24. Forced to extend its
defense and foul, either St. Wendelin was
either executing from the field (4-of-4) or at
the line (9-of-13) to keep its lead at double
digits the rest of the way and eventually
giving the Lady Green faithful a chance to
chant their thanks to the teams five seniors:
Lindeman, Haley Landwehr, Courtney Von
Sossan and Lexie and Lyndsey Wannemacher.
We have girls with more heart than I have
ever seen. We did seem to get tired there at
the end of the first half but we got our wind
again, Smith added. We flipped a coin with
our defense and Krystal or Peighton did a
great job on Lindeman. We didnt want to
get blown out early; we were prepared to use
timeouts or whatever we had to in order for
that not to happen but we came out well. Our
defense rotated perfectly and we have the
eraser.
Its great to finally get on the podium this year, said Clemons. As a
competitor, it would have nicer to be
higher in the final standings. Now that I
made it to the third day and the awards
presentation, my goals will definitely be
much higher next season.
Other wrestlers in the area also made
it to the third day: Hunter Lucas (2nd)
and Jake Huffman (2nd) of Lima Central
Catholic, along with Tyler Copeland
(5th) and Landon Hall (6th) from
Wapakoneta.
Dayton Christian won the D-III team
title while St. Paris Graham won yet
another title in Division II.
The wrestling season will conclude
Wednesday night with the annual AllStar Meet held at Lima Central Catholic.

Studies boost hopes for new

class of cholesterol medicines
SAN DIEGO (AP) New research
boosts hope that a highly anticipated,
experimental class of cholesterol drugs
can greatly lower the risk for heart attacks,
death and other heart-related problems.
The government will decide this summer
whether to allow two of these drugs on
the market.
People taking one of these drugs had
half the risk of dying or suffering a heart
problem compared to others who were
given usual care typically one of the
statin drugs such as Lipitor or Zocor, doctors found. Many people cannot tolerate
statins or get enough help from them, so
new medicines are badly needed.
The results are really impressive and
very encouraging for the new drugs,
said one independent expert, Dr. Judith
Hochman of NYU Langone Medical
Center.
The studies were published online
Sunday by the New England Journal of
Medicine and discussed at an American
College of Cardiology conference in San
Diego.
They are fresh analyses from older
studies designed to look at how much the
drugs lower cholesterol, so they can only
suggest that the drugs also lower heart
problems, not prove that point. Definitive
studies will take about two more years, so
the federal Food and Drug Administration
will be deciding the drugs fates with only
results like this in hand.
The drugs are evolocumab, which

Amgen Inc. wants to call Repatha,
and alirocumab, which Regeneron
Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Sanofi SA have
named Praluent.
They lower LDL or bad cholesterol
more powerfully and in a different way
than existing drugs, by blocking PCSK9,
a substance that interferes with the livers
ability to remove cholesterol from the
blood.
Side effects remain a question, though,
especially on thinking, confusion and
memory problems the FDA has already
voiced concern about and asked the companies to track.
The problems affected only 1 or 2
percent of patients and may be temporary,
but they were twice as common among
people taking one of the new drugs and
need to be closely monitored as studies
continue, said Dr. Anthony DeMaria, a
University of California at San Diego
heart specialist and past president of the
American College of Cardiology. As a
patient facing potential side effects, the
last one I want is one that affects the
brain, he said.
Dr. Eric Topol, a cardiologist at Scripps
Clinic in La Jolla, California, said the new
results show an unquestionable signal
of a potential safety issue. More side
effects typically turn up once a drug is
approved and used in a wider population,
he said.
Chamber
We want everyone to work together for the success of

Delphos, Krendl said.
Outgoing President Denny Klausing introduced his successor, President Janet Metzger.
We are pleased with the enhancements to the chamber
under Tara and now we just have to reign her in and let her
know she doesnt have to do everything herself, Metzger
joked. She has a lot of support. Chamber members will benefit even more from their membership and its more than just
the right thing to do.

Man, 20, charged with

shooting 2 officers in Ferguson
CLAYTON, Mo. (AP)
A 20-year-old man charged
Sunday with shooting two
police officers watching over
a demonstration outside the
Ferguson Police Department
had attended a protest there
earlier that night but told investigators he wasnt targeting the
officers, authorities said.
St.
Louis
County
Prosecutor Robert McCulloch
said suspect Jeffrey Williams
told authorities he was firing
at someone with whom he
was in a dispute.
Were not sure we completely buy that part of it,
McCulloch said, adding that
there might have been other
people in a vehicle Williams
is accused of firing from.
Williams is charged with
two counts of first-degree
assault, one count of firing
a weapon from a vehicle and
three counts of armed criminal action. McCulloch said
the investigation is ongoing.
The police officers were
shot early Thursday as a latenight demonstration began to
break up following the resignation of Ferguson Police Chief
Tom Jackson in the wake of a
Justice Department report that
found widespread racial bias in
the police department.
He was out there earlier

daycare and school students, military
personnel in barracks and people who
recently received inpatient medical care.
In the sports arena, athletes are cautious about body piercing and tattoos
in the middle of the season, Dershem
said. Schools have done a great job
with cleaning procedures to reduce the
number of infections.
There are the personal hygiene steps
people can take to reduce the risk of
MRSA infection:
Wash hands often and clean body
regularly, especially after exercise;

Keep cuts, scrapes, and wounds
clean and covered until healed;
Avoid sharing personal items such
as towels and razors; and
Get care early if you think you
might have an infection.
If you or someone in your family
experiences these signs and symptoms,
cover the area with a bandage, wash
your hands and contact your doctor
right away, Dershem said. This is an
aggressive germ.

Williams used a handgun

He also said tips from the
public led to the arrest.
Williams, who St. Louis

Brittany Ferrell, 26, a protest
leader with the group Millennial

a meeting with other leaders
Sunday when word of the arrest
circulated. She said no one in
the group knew Williams, and
they checked with other frequent protesters who also

McCulloch tried to cast him

as a protester to reflect negatively on the movement.
This is a fear tactic, she

John Gaskin, a St. Louis
NAACP leader, said of
Williams, I dont know him.
Ive never seen him.
Williams, a north St. Louis
County resident, was on probation for receiving stolen
property, McCulloch said. I
think there was a warrant out
for him on that because he
had neglected to report for
the last seven months to his
probation officer, he said.

Oklahoma is latest to address

race problems at fraternities
WASHINGTON (AP)
Their reputations sullied by
race-tainted incidents, many
colleges are clamping down
on campus fraternities. Despite
some swift and tough actions by
schools and in some cases,
public humiliation episodes
such as the racist chants by
members of the Sigma Alpha
Epsilon chapter at the University
of Oklahoma keep surfacing.
In recent years, numerous other fraternities have
been suspended and students expelled from school
for racially tinged parties or
behavior, such as hanging
nooses or shouting racial profanities.
All too often the outcry
has been, Look at those bad
apples we need to root out,
said Nolan L. Cabrera, a professor in the Center for the
Study of Higher Education
at the University of Arizona.
When in fact the conversation we need to have is, Why
is this occurring on such a
widespread level throughout
the country?
Many incidents come to
light after the students themselves post pictures or videos
online, drawing public attention; others are reported by
onlookers or whistleblowers.
Either way, its hard to
ignore a current on many,
many campuses of behaviors that are just offensive
and disgusting at the far end
and maybe just lack common sense at the other end,
said Kevin Kruger, president
of NASPA: Student Affairs
Administrators in Higher
Education, a professional
organization.
For example, Sigma Alpha
Epsilon suspended all activity at Clemson University in
South Carolina in December
after white students dressed
as gang members at a
Cripmas party. That same
month Phi Delta Theta halted
its chapter at the University
of Pennsylvania for issuing
a holiday card with members
posing with what it called a

Beyonce sex doll.
Other examples:
Arizona State University
banned Tau Kappa Epsilon
last year after its Martin
Luther King Jr. Day party had
guests flashing gang signs and
holding watermelon-shaped
cups.
Kappa Sigma suspended
its Duke University chapter
in 2013 after students held
an international-themed party
that mocked Asians.
Sigma Phi Epsilon
shut its doors last year at the
University of Mississippi
after three of its members
draped a Confederate banner
and placed a noose around
the statue of the schools first
black student.
Lehigh University suspended Sigma Chi in April
2014 and expelled members after racial slurs were
spray-painted and eggs
thrown at a multicultural residence hall.
Sororities have had similar problems. In 2014, Chi
Omega closed its Penn State
chapter in connection with
a photo appearing on the
Internet showing members
wearing sombreros and fake
mustaches and holding offensive signs one read, Will
mow lawn for weed + beer.
The University of Alabama
announced in fall 2013 that
more than 20 minority women
were being offered membership in historically all-white
sororities after accusations
surfaced of black women
being denied membership.
At Oklahoma, the university quickly expelled two
students and banned Sigma
Alpha Epsilon last week after
fraternity members were
filmed engaging in a racist
chant that referenced lynching
and indicated that black students never would be admitted to that universitys chapter. Two students identified
in the video have apologized
publicly.
