Temporary truce
struck in Dollar
Street brouhaha

Primary voting light


Delphos resident Tom Grothous cast his vote Tuesday at Trinity United Methodist Church. Like all
Delphos residents, Grothous only had one option on his ballot the Johnny Appleseed Metropolitan
Park Districts additional. 75-mill Operating Levy, which was passed by Allen County voters 4,447 to
3,696. Elidas renewal also passed with 1,856 for and 882 against. (DHI Media/Nancy Spencer)

OTTOVILLE There
is an old expression about
strong fences making good
neighbors. Sadly, in the case
of Bee Line Trucking and the
Main Street Market, Dollar
Street gets in the way of construction and fails to serve as
a barrier. And therein lies the
crux of the problem.
Pat and Tonia Vetter
addressed members of the
Ottoville Village Council
during their meeting on
Monday and, citing concerns about truck traffic on
the unmarked road, supported a proposal that the
village vacate Dollar Street.
Of particular concern to the
owners of the restaurant/
deli is the proximity of their
front door to passing semis.
We think its a road
thats not been maintained,
Pat Vetter said. Most people arent aware that theres
a road there. We feel thats a
true safety issue, not knowing theres a road there.
Were definitely in favor of
vacating.

Representing Celadon
Trucking, of which Bee
Line and three other businesses located on Dollar
Street are wholly owned
subsidiaries, Kevin C.
Connell an attorney with
the Dayton firm of Freund,
Freeze & Arnold vehemently argued against closing the street, saying that
it would create an unnecessary financial and logistical burden for Bee Line.
Further, he denied the existence of any safety issue.
(Dollar Street) is there
to accommodate truck traffic. Its used for truck traffic and there hasnt been a
safety issue, because theres
been no incident, Connell
asserted. Bee Line and the
businesses that are located there are good corporate
citizens, they provide jobs
in this community and acting in favor of one business
to the judgment of another
is not the proper use of
vacation.
Jeff Basinger, former
co-owner and operations
manager of Bee Line, then
addressed council.

Education tops Rep. Cupps legislative update


BY STEVEN COBURN-GRIFFIS
DHI Media Staff Writer
sgriffis@delphosherald.com
DELPHOS - A significant focus of legislation currently under review by Ohios legislators centers around education. Such was
the message presented by State Representative
Bob Cupp (R) as part of his legislative update
presented Monday in the community room of
the Delphos Public Library. And, according
to Cupp, all of the news is positive for school
districts in the region.
First, Cupp announced a school funding
increase of 6.4 percent for the 2015-16 school
year and 5.3 percent for the following year.
These increases, he explained, represent a
response to a request for greater uniformity
from educational professionals and an unprecedented shift in how and when such increases
are formulated.
This could be a historic opportunity, he
said. Usually the school funding formula
changes are made at the top, when the eco-

nomic cycle is ready to go down and so you


cant pay for what youve planned in them.
Were at the upswing of the economic cycle,
so hopefully theyll take root and become
institutionalized.
Delphos
Local
School
District
Superintendent Kevin Wolfe raised the issue
of caps on school district funding that limit the
amount of money districts are allotted.
Referring to a summary of the budget
passed by the House, Wolfe asked, It says
here that (the cap) will not decrease, but is it
going to let up? Any new students we get, we
dont get any new foundation money. Is that
going to change?
While expressing the caveat that state legislators have no control over federal monies,
Cupp shared the belief that both Ohios House
and its Senate are interested in raising, if not
eliminating caps. In explaining the situation,
he pointed out what he apparently considered
State Representative Bob Cupp discusses economic development with Delphos City
an anomaly in how districts are funded.

Pole fire kills the lights


BY steVen COBUrn-GriFFis
DHi Media staff Writer
sgriffis@delphosherald.com

DELPHOS A little after dawn Tuesday morning, parts


of Delphos went dark. At roughly 7:15 a.m., a disruption in
the electrical supply killed traffic lights along Main Street and
left homes and businesses on the east side of the road without
power.
According to Jason Birkemeier, supervisor of the line crew
dispatched by American Electric Power to repair the problem,
cracks in protective porcelain insulators conducted electricity
to the wood on which they were mounted. The resultant flames
charred crossbars and chewed into electrical lines on a pole
located in the alley between Second and First Streets, just
across from equipment bays at Delphos Fire and Rescue.
Its what we call a pole fire, Birkemeier explained.
Crews worked to replace the damaged section and succeeded in returning power to the area by 11 a.m.

Residents Bill and Linda Short of 416 S. Canal St. attended the meeting because they received a letter from Chapman
stating that their sanitary sewer was illegally tapped into the
storm sewer and they had ninety days to remedy the problem. Chapman and other village employees had been at the
residence to assist the Shorts in resolving the problem. Steve
Parsons, a relative of the Shorts, spoke on their behalf at the
meeting. After much discussion, some of which was heated,
Parsons asked if Chapman could do a dye test on the south

INFORMATION SUBMITTED
Two dancers, Kelsea Allenbaugh
and Kylie Hohman, from Kim
Hohmans DanceWorks were selected to perform at Dr. and Lisa Ozs
HealthCorps Gala. The dancers attended Dynamite National Talent Dance
Competition last May in Columbus
and auditioned at the competition.
They were selected by an intense audition directed by Stepp Stewart, owner
and director of Dynamite as well as
the choreographer for the Dr. Oz show.

This was the ninth annual


HealthCorps gala. This year they
honored Jordin Sparks, American
Idol winner, and Montel Williams,
American television personality.
The HealthCorps mission is to raise
funds to fight child obesity and expand
the organizations in school health education programming. HealthCorps was
founded by Dr. and Lisa Oz and they
were the co hosts of the Gala. This was
a black tie event, a magical evening
of dining, dancing and entertainment
(Sugarhill Gang and Kat Deluna)..

The American Red Cross asks eligible donors to help ensure


blood is available for patients in need by giving blood in May
before the busy summer season kicks in.
Blood and platelet donations often decrease when regular
donors are vacationing and school is out of session, but the need
for blood is constant. Donors are needed in the weeks leading up
to summer to help alleviate this seasonal decline.
Donors of all blood types especially those with types O
negative, A negative and B negative are needed to help ensure
blood is available for patients this spring. Those who come to
donate blood May 23 -25 will receive a limited-edition Red
Cross-branded RuMe tote bag, while supplies last.
Upcoming blood donation opportunities:
Allen County
May 19 from 1-6:30 p.m., American Red Cross Allen County
Chapter House, 610 S. Collett St. in Lima.
May 26 from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m., HCF Management, 1100

How to donate blood
Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor
App, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800733-2767) to make an appointment or for more information. All
blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A
blood donor card or drivers license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years
of age (16 with parental consent in some states), weigh at least
110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to
donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years
of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight

INFORMATION SUBMITTED
DELPHOS Eighth-grade students at
St. Johns High School recently completed
a Coasting on Energy project.
For this project, the students, working in
groups of four or five, had to design, sketch
to scale, build and modify a roller coaster.
The roller coaster had to have three
hills. The first hill could be a maximum of
one meter high. The students had to choose
their own materials for the track. Then the
students had to choose a vehicle which
would fit on their track. The vehicle had
to successfully complete the entire track
without stopping.
When the students were faced with
unsuccessful attempts, they had to make
modifications to the track or vehicle. The
students were challenged to make the hills
as high as possible and still be successful.

Then they were also challenged to add


turns and loops. Again, modifications had
to be made. The students collected data and
recorded the modifications on a data table.
When the projects were complete, the
students had to give an oral presentation,
which included a visual aid, along with the
demonstration of their roller coaster. Many
groups incorporated power points or posters for the visual aid.
The students had to include a written report on the process of the project
and what they learned. In the process, the
students gained hands-on experience with
conversion of potential energy into kinetic
energy. They had to explain in the report
and label on the sketch where the maximum potential energy and maximum kinetic energy occurred on the roller coaster.
The students had to include in the report
the knowledge that was gained about this

energy transformation, how the force of


friction can affect the roller coaster, and
the idea that energy cannot be created or
destroyed in the law of conservation of
energy.
By working in groups, the students
gained life experiences of collaboration.
The students had to, as a group, be responsible for meeting deadlines. Communication
was a vital part in this project. The students
had to be willing to listen to their group
members ideas and choose what was best
for their project.
The students were given a chance to
vote for the best overall roller coaster. The
winners were the developers of The Twister.
This team consisted of Josh Gerding, Betty
Vorst, Skye Stevenson, Luke Reindel, and
Tony Sanders.

DELPHOS Respect.
After a lower than expected seeding
for the upcoming sectional tournament,
the St. Johns baseball team is looking to
earn some respect with some area teams.
The Blue Jays played with the proverbial chip on their shoulders Tuesday
night at Stadium Park with a 4-3 defeat
of Versailles in Midwest Athletic
Conference action.
The Blue Jays made a convincing
statement in the bottom of the first inning
as leadoff hitter Austin Heiing reached
with an infield hit and Seth Linder
walked. Buddy Jackson delivered with a
double to left to score Heiing, giving the
Jays the early 1-0 lead. After Eric Vogt
reached with the Jays second infield hit
of the inning, Jacob Youngpeter singled
just over the Versailles first baseman to
bring home Linder as the bags remained
juiced. Senior Jorden Boone continued
the uprising by ripping a single to center
to stake St. Johns an early 4-0 lead.
The first inning by our guys really
set the tone for the game, explained St.
Johns coach Jerry Jackson. We wanted
to come out and make some noise right
away as the boys did the talking with
their bats.
After retiring Versailles in order
in the first inning, St. Johns starter
Youngpeter surrendered a leadoff walk
to opposing pitcher Dan Borchers. The
young southpaw then retired the next
three Tiger batters with a pop out and a
pair of strikeouts.

Lady Bulldogs rally by Titans


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

ELIDA Fast-pitch softball like any


sport is taking advantage of what you do
and what your opponent gives you.
Elida did just that in its Western Buckeye
League contest versus Ottawa-Glandorf on a
warm Tuesday afternoon at Dorothy Edwards
Field.
The Lady Bulldogs took advantage of six
Lady Titan errors and a solid complete-game
outing from right-hander Michaela Black to
rally for an 8-6 victory.
The Lady Titans (8-12, 3-6 WBL) had
themselves rallied from a 2-0 second-inning
deficit to take a 4-2 edge in the top of the
third.
Elida (13-4, 7-2) took the lead for good in
the home fifth against O-G complete-game
starter Megan Kitchen. Katelyn Sumption got
aboard via a leadoff error and pinch-runner
Kathy Jenks advanced on a passed ball. An
out later, Lydia Burnett walked. Skylar Hurst
hit a ground ball but an error on the attempted
forceout at third left everyone safe. An out
later, lefty Tyler Thompson blooped a 2-run
single to left center to get Jenks and Burnett
in to tie the score at 4; Hurst kept going to
third and a throwing error allowed her to put
the hosts up 5-4.
The Lady Dawgs tacked on their final
three tallies in the bottom of the sixth. With
one down, Sabrina Kline singled into left
and Sumption lined a knock into right to put
runners on the corners. Kylee Makin slapped
a hit to center to get Kline home. An out later,
Hurst was plunked to load the bases. Kelsey
Goodman walked to plate Sumption. An error
on Thompsons grounder got Makin in for the
eighth run.
The visitors made it interesting in the top of
the seventh. A 1-out triple by Emily Annesser
ended an 11-out streak and scored on a rip to
left by Erin Basinger. An error on Kitchens
grounder put two on. Kylie Gerdemans 1-out
hit to right plated Basinger. However, Black
induced Bailey Cramer to pop out.

Elida went up 2-0 in the last of the second. Makin beat out an infield hit off the
pitchers glove, took second on a throwing
error, advanced on a wild pitch and scored
on a 1-out slash to left by Hurst. Goodman
walked. Thompson laid down a sacrifice bunt;
a throwing error on the play brought Hurst in
from second for that 2-0 edge.
O-G replied with a 4-spot in the third.
Annesser beat out an infield hit. An out later,
Kitchen singled. Both advanced on a wild
pitch and scored as Kadie Hempfling slugged
a double. In turn, she took third on a bunt single by Gerdeman; when the defense hesitated,
both advanced a base. Leanna Zynda lashed a
2-out run-scoring knock.
Michaela didnt have her best stuff today.
Youre not always going to and that is when
you have to battle; she did that and Im proud
of her for it, Elida head coach Mike Eilerman
observed. We had to be patient at the plate;
with the drop ball that Kitchen throws that just
falls off the table, we moved up in the batters
box. We only had a bad inning on defense
when weve been so steady all season.

Crestview softball
Knights hold on vs. Wildcats,
seize solo NWC baseball crown shuts out Jeffcats
By BRIAN BASSETT
DHI Media Correspondent
sports@timesbulletin.com

CONVOY - Coach Jim Wharton


wanted to put pitcher
Derek Stout in a pressure-packed
situation
heading into the tournament to see how the freshman would fare.
After a 2-out, bases-loaded strikeout to
clinch a 3-2 win over
Delphos Jefferson and
the outright Northwest
Conference Championship
Monday evening at Crestview, it looks
like Stout and the Knights (13-5, 8-0)
will be just fine.
After cruising through most of the
contest, starter Jon Krouse walked
Jefferson 9-batter Jacob Boop and hit
2-hole hitter Gaige Rassman with a
pitch. The two mistakes mirrored a masterful performance by Krouse, who exited with a 3-1 lead and the tying run on
first.
Jonny Krouse started for us and
got us deep into the game, explained
Wharton. The one thing with Jon is,
you cant walk the number-9 guy. He
lost a little bit of his focus. He was
thinking about the end result rather
than getting the end result. Then he hit
a batter.
Then entered Stout, who immediately walked Jeffersons Gage Mercer
to load the bases and put the potential
game-winning run aboard.
After a quick strikeout, Ryan

Bullinger drew a walk off Stout and


made things even more interesting,
bringing the Wildcats within a run.
Stout settled in, however, and got a
strikeout when he needed it most to seal
the win for the Knights.
We decided to go with
Stouty - a freshman who has
been throwing more for us
at the varsity level. We just
wanted to get him in a pressure-type situation so we can
potentially use him down the
road, continued Wharton.
Krouse got the win, allowing two runs, both earned, on
four hits while walking two
and hitting a batter. Stout got the save
for his effort.
It was a well-played game by both
teams, said Jefferson coach Doug
Geary. We were similar in errors, hits
and base-runners. It just came down to
them finding a way to plate one more
run than we did.
Crestview found a way to plate two
of its runs in the home half of the third.
Senior left fielder Mitchell Rickard was
hit by pitch and advance to third on a
double by senior designated hitter Jake
Lippi - the first hard-hit ball of the evening off Jefferson starter Mercer.
After junior catcher Jordan Miller
walked to load the bases, senior catcher
Nate Owens unloaded them with an RBI
double to give Crestview a 2-1 lead.
The final Knight run came in the
home fifth when Miller walked to open
the inning and advanced two bases on a
single passed ball. Owens then flew out
deep to center field which was plenty far

enough to bring in Miller on the sacrifice fly. The run on Owens third RBI of
the evening turned out to be enough to
secure the Knight the win - barely.
The first run of the game came from
the Wildcats in the top half of the first.
Mercer helped his cause with a 2-out triple and centerfielder Bullinger brought
him home on an RBI single.
Unfortunately for Jefferson, that was
all the damage they would cause at the
plate until the drama-filled seventh.
You cant fault the effort we gave,
said Geary. With Crestview being at the
top of the league our kids look forward
to playing them. We cant fault what
we did. If we play like this in the tournament we should have a pretty good
opportunity (to advance).
Mercer was the tough-luck loser for
the Wildcats. He went six innings allowing three earned runs on four hits while
walking three hitting a pair of batter and
striking out one.
Gage has been coming on for us,
said Geary. Hes got a bulldog mentality and hes taking it to the mound.
Hes popping the glove, throwing strikes
and getting ahead (of batters). His pitch
count was down which (is good to see).
The Knights return to action today
when the travel to Ayersville before a
much-needed day off Wednesday.

Ayersville flies by Jennings in BB action

FORT JENNINGS
There were not a lot of hits
in Monday afternoons Fort
Jennings versus Ayersville
non-league baseball tilt at a
damp Fort Jennings Village
Park.
There was still
some offense as the
teams combined for
15 free passes from
five pitchers.
In the end, it
came down to capitalizing on what they did get
as the visiting Pilots grabbed
an 8-3 victory.
The Musketeers (4-16)
challenged in the home first
against Ayersville starter
Dawson Dales: a 1-out hit to
right by Mark Metzger and
back-to-back free passes (on
8 pitches) to Brandon Wehri
and Austin Kehres. However,
they remained loaded as three
of 10 left stranded for the
contest.
The Pilots (16-5) got to
Musketeer starter Kehres in
the top of the second, batting around and using one
hit and five bases-on-balls to
score three runs. Three of the
walks were with the bases
loaded: Jacob Miller (plating
Tyler Brown), Jacob Kahle
(Abe Stottlemayer) and Dales
(Austin Killitzen).
The Orange and Black
threatened again in the home
second: a 1-out walk to Kyle

Hellman (advancing to second on a wild pitch) and


Austin Luebrecht. A passed
ball and wild pitch, respectively, moved them up a
base. However, they could
not score.
The guests chased Kehres
as he walked Jack Goonan
to open the third, bringing in
Alex Sealts. He scored
on a 1-out grounder
and a throwing error on
Stottlemayers grounder.
Fort Jennings got
Kehres aboard with one
out in the home third on
a throwing error but the
Pilots turned a double play.
The hosts rebelled in the
bottom of the fourth. With one
down, Connor Stechschulte
and Hellman walked. A single to right by Luebrecht
got pinch-runner Chad
Wurst home for a 4-1 deficit, with Hellman hustling to
third. A wild pitch advanced
Luebrecht to second. Luke
Trentman walked to load the
bases, finishing Dales for
Tyler Brown. Metzger rapped
a liner that just eluded leaping shortstop Miller and plated Hellman and Luebrecht
to get the Musketeers within
4-3. Trentman and Metzger
moved up on a groundout by
Wehri. Then the play of the
game that kept the Pilots in
front: Kehres struck a sure
2-run double to right center but centerfielder Kasey
Williams made a brilliant
diving catch to rob him.
The hosts kept on trying

to retaliate in the home fifth.


With one down, Sealts was
hit by a pitch, as was Collin
Wieging with two down.
However, a groundout prevented any further damage.
The Pilots added four
more in the sixth, putting
together two bases-on-balls
and three hits. A sacrifice fly
by Dales plated Miller (2 stolen bases) for the first run.
The run-scoring hits were an
infield hit up the middle by
Williams (Kahle) and a double to deep right by Goonan
(Williams). The fourth run
came home via a throwing
error, plating Goonan.
Metzger
kept
the
Musketeers within five runs
in the top of the seventh by a
diving catch of a deep fly ball
to center by Dales, preventing two runs.
Sam Vetter singled into left
with one out in the Musketeer
final at-bat and pinch-runner
Ryan Hoersten advanced on a
wild pitch. Brown retired the
next two to end the contest.
Its kind of been our
season; we have a play that
we need to make and cant
get it done. That was in the
sixth and we go from being
down one to down five, Fort
Jennings coach Eric Schwab
observed. That really was
the difference in this game:
they made those plays and we
didnt. That play by Williams
and the play by Mark were
two of the best Ive seen from
a centerfielder this year. We
were right there with them

Wildcats
(Continued from page 6)
Delphos Jefferson answered in its half of
the fourth to take the lead for good.
A Jace Stockwell sacrifice fly scored Kurt
Wollenhaupt to get the Wildcats within 4-3
before a Rassman home run put Delphos
Jefferson on top 5-4.
The next batter was Jeffersons Gage
Mercer, who followed up with a home run
over the left-field fence to widen the advantage to 6-4.
Pulford reached on a dropped third strike,
stole second and proceeded to score on a
double by Ryan Bullinger to extend the
Jefferson lead to 7-4 heading to the bottom
of the fourth.
The Wildcats added another run in the top
of the fifth before breaking the game open in
the sixth.
Delphos Jefferson plated four runs in the
visitors portion of the sixth, extended the
lead to 12-4. Wollenhaupt hit a 2-out, 2-run
double and a Fitch double also drove in a run.
The fourth run came when Fitch scored on a

and then we werent.

CONVOY The Crestview Lady Knights welcomed


Northwest Conference foe Jefferson to the newly-minted
Owen Pugh Field at the Crestview Sports Complex on Monday
night.
Crestview at worst won a share of the NWC with a
6-0 victory over the Lady Wildcats.
The Lady Knights struck quickly in the bottom of the first
frame as Cora Millay dented the plate on a Brady Guest RBI
single. Guest later came around to score on a passed ball to
make the score 2-0, Crestview. The next two Crestview batters Jada Preston and Terra Crowle reached base via a
single and walk. Later on in the frame, Mackenzie Riggenbach
singled to bring home the fourth run of the game for the Lady
Knights.
In the bottom of the second frame, Kenadie Speith walked
and stole second to give the Lady Knights a runner in scoring
position. Two batters later, Tianna Rager hit a deep fly ball to
left field that allowed Speith touch home plate and make the
score 5-0, Lady Knights.
The final run of the game was scored in leadoff fashion to
start the bottom of the fifth frame as Preston hit a long solo
shot to left-center field to bring the score to 6-0.
Coming into the top of the seventh frame, Crowle had
allowed zero hits and only two base-runners as Claire
Thompson walked and Kaylin Hartsock reached base via the
hit by pitch.
To start the frame, Crowle still working on the no-no
hit the first batter, Jessica Pimpas, who later advanced to
second on an error. Crowle retired the last three batters on a
pop-out to second base and two straight groundouts to complete the no-hitter.
This was a really big weekend for us with the field naming
and the doubleheader on Saturday; I feel after that first inning,
we came out kind of flat. But Jeffersons pitcher (Thompson)
was able to keep us off balance and swing off of our front foot.
Terra Crowle was huge tonight throwing the no-hitter but she
also got a lot of help from the middle infielders as Sydney
Bowen and Tianna Rager did a nice job on the defensive side,
said Crestview coach Carl Etzler.
We faced a very good team tonight and Im proud of the
way we played defense; unfortunately, we were able to get a
hit but Crowle did a good job of getting us behind in the count
so we were unable to make good contact with the ball. On
the other hand, I think Thompson did a good job of keeping
the Crestview batters off-balance after that first frame, said
Delphos Jefferson coach Josiah Stober.
The Lady Knights improve to 15-5 on the year and finished
7-1 in the NWC, which guarantees them at least a share of
the crown as Allen East has two games left to play with a 5-1
record.
Jefferson drops to 4-11 on the season and 0-5 in the NWC.
Jefferson is slated to host Ada Thursday.

Musings

(Continued from page 6)


come down to that all too
often in present-day America.
Im not speaking about
those the vast majority
that did protest peacefully.
Most of you know its the
one that refuse to do so
likely not even residents
and make it terrible for everyone else who has to live and
work there.
I am not going to prejudge
the criminal case involving
Freddie Gray and those six
police persons.
Its another case of someone who died too young and
I want to let the process work
itself out as to what really happened, instead of pure

speculation.
We owe everyone involved
that courtesy.
I just know for myself,
whoever was causing the
trouble was doing no favors
for their cause; in fact, they
were making things harder
for people like me to give
them the benefit of the doubt.
Living in a small town
like Big D with its environment gives you a different perspective than living
in a large city with its own
unique and irrepeatable atmosphere does.
The problem might be
that what used to pass for
common sense, simple courtesy and civility is no longer
common.
Sad!

(Continued from Page 6)


Knapke retired six straight Blue Jay batters to keep the Tigers within distance to pounce.
The Tigers threatened in the sixth inning against Vogt when Bornhorst drew his second walk
of the game and moved into scoring position with a steal. Brett McEldowney was robbed of
an RBI single when second baseman Reindel made a diving stop to nail the batter at first. Vogt
retired the final Tiger batter of the inning with a lazy fly to center.
Reindel drew a 2-out walk in the bottom of the sixth inning but became the sixth stranded
runner for the Jays as McEldowney retired Heiing on a fly to center.
St. Johns appeared to be cruising to their third straight league win as Vogt retired the first
two Tigers in the final inning. Jackson called in closer Brandon Slate finish the game. The
Tigers were not quite ready to get back on the bus for the long ride home as Cole Niekamp
ripped a double down the third-base line. Versailles managed to load the bases and ruined the
shutout when Bornhorst walked to cut the lead to 4-1. Jesse Ditto was called into the pressure
situation on the mound with the bases full. McEldowneys single brought home a pair as the
Jays lead evaporated. Ditto kept his composure and earned the save, getting the final out on a
popout.
We had our hurlers on a pitch count tonight to set up our rotation for sectionals this weekend, said Coach Jackson. I was comfortable making pitching changes because we built that
4-run lead in the first inning. Youngpeter and Vogt did a great job pitching tonight by shutting
out a team that was 12-5 and beat super power Coldwater.
St. Johns gets back to the .500 mark at 10-10 with the win and improves to 3-4 in the MAC.
Boone lead St. Johns with a pair of RBIs and the Jays had eight hits by eight different
batters.
The next action for the Blue Jays will be Thurday night as the Wayne Trace Raiders come
to Stadium Park (5 p.m.).

Movie Review

"Quick Puzzle"

Online, anyone can stream your scream - Starring


Shelley Henning, Heather Sossaman, Matthew Bohrer,
Courtney Halverson, Moses Jacob Storm & Renee Olstead.

Directed
Gabriadze
R

Unfriended

by

Levan

Hackers,
spammers,
scammers, trolls and identity
thieves can make going online
pretty scary, right?
Youll have even more
reasons to fear clicking
and scrolling when you
watch this freaky-fresh take
on a classic horror-movie
standbyteenagers in peril
seen entirely through the
perspective of a characters
laptop computer screen.
In Unfriended (originally
titled Cybernatural), a group
of high school friends having
an online chat notices an
anonymous, lurking intruder
on their call. Ominously, its
on the anniversary of the
suicide of Laura Barnes, one
of their classmates, who took
her life after being victimized
by cyber bullying. Then weird
things start to happen: The
friends cant boot the lurker
off the line; other web pages
malfunction;
unsettling
messages begin coming in
and they say theyre from
Laura Barnes.
Something srvsly wrong,
types one of the chatters.
Indeed it is, and its about to
get much wrong-ersrysly.
Director Levan Gabriadze
takes what might have been
a gimmickthe computerscreen formatand totally
makes it work. We see
everything as the character
of Blaire (Shelley Henning,
Malia on TVs Teen Wolf) sees
it, does it and experiences
it. We watch as she moves
her cursor around the web
Skype, Facebook, Google,
Gmail, Spotify. We follow
each click as she types,
enters a command or searches
frantically for answers. We
read, as she reads, messages
as they come in, often bearing
hair-raising news. We watch,
as she watches, terror contort

her friends facesand her


ownin the windows of her
screen.
Computer viruses never
seemed so dangerous; a
hovering cursor over a link
can be a thing of wrenching
suspense; that spinning beach
ball icon becomes not just
maddening, but positively
malevolent.
Can their late classmate
really be taunting them, and
haunting them, from beyond
the grave? What role did each
of them play in her death?
What other terrible secrets
might be buriedonline or
elsewherejust waiting to be
brought to light?
When things turn nasty
and they dothe gore is
seen as either on a terrifying,
in-and-out, glitch-y pixelated
webcam connection, or via
attachments that the teens have
opened to view. The audience,
like Blair, never knows whats
going to pop up on the screen.
Our eyes, like hers, are glued.
Its a nifty-nightmare
premise for an online-saturated
culture, so much so its a
wonder someone hasnt done
it already. It taps into several
themesthe illusion of online
privacy; the permanence of
online content; the compliance
of everyone who creates,
uploads, downloads or even
views material on the web;
the evils of cyber-bulling; how
social media has supplanted so
many other former means of
communication, information
and interaction.
Unfriended delivers some
truly unsettling jolts with a
minimum of effects and what
was surely a micro-fraction
of the budget of much bigger,
bloodier, more bloated horror
flicks. Once you see it, you
might not stare into your
computer screen so casually
or comfortablyagain.

department.
The pay rates will be as
follows: 36-hour firefighter/EMT Basic $9.50 and

with Allen County Refuse
to supply solid waste, refuse
and recycling services to the
city.
The cost to residents is
$15 per month for the life of
the contract with administrative fees of 60 per month the

Paperwork for the 2016
Budget heard on first reading
was not available for council members. Auditor Tom
Jettinghoff said he would
have that ready in the next
week. He also asked a public
hearing on the budget be set
at 6:30 p.m. May 18 prior to
the next council meeting.
Approval of the tax minutes from the Allen County
Tax
Incentive
Review
Council continuing the
Enterprise Zone Agreement
for K&M Tire/Langhals
Enterprises, LLC was heard
on first reading.
The final piece of new
legislation was a warrant to
Stolly Insurance for the 201516 property, general liability
and fleet insurance coverage
for the city. The city extended the current contract with
Stolly through 2018 with the
first years premium $79,820,

and $7,800 per year.
Council tabled an ordinance to accept the application for the annexation of
.958 acres of land owned
by Kenneth R. Brinkman,
Michael E. Coil and Barbara
J. Coil on Pohlman Road.
Mayor Michael Gallmeier
said newly-appointed Law
Director Andy Knueve was
looking at Ohio Revised
Codes rules and case law on
several points of the annexation.
Washington Township
trustees and Van Wert County
commissioners have already
approved the annexation.
Passed on third reading
was an ordinance enacting
the replacement of codified
ordinances that conflict with
recent Ohio Revised Code
changes. Changes were
made to traffic codes, general offenses codes and fire
prevention codes. Council
asked to see a detailed list
of the changes proposed; and
an ordinance amending the
rates for emergency medical
services to include a 5.4-percent Milliman Medical Index
increase. The new charges
will be: Emergency basic life
support (per person/per conveyance) $616.23; emergency advanced life support
1 (per person/per conveyance) $672.25; emergency
advanced life support 2
$784.29; and mileage (per
loaded mile) $12.04.

Cupp

(Continued from page 1)

morass of testing, Cupp said. Its just like this


huge weight taking up an enormous amount of
time. I think the legislature has heard this and
HB 74 includes a number of modifications in the
testing requirements.
He further remarked that the bill addresses
PARCC testing specifically, establishing a prohibition on the use of Department of Education
funding for that assessment. The bill also directs
the State Board of Education to write tests for
use in Ohio. He said that the directive includes
wording encouraging one or two tests that
assess a variety of learning areas, rather than a
series of tests that assess achievement levels in
individual areas.
While Cupps address focused significantly
on education, he also directed attention toward
community development opportunities, primarily
as a consequence of a query from Delphos City
Council President Dan Hirn.
One thing thats going on in Delphos is a new
group trying to stimulate economic growth, Hirn
said, referring to the Delphos Area Economic
Group. Are there things coming up at the state
level that the community will be able to tap into?
Cupps response encompassed a wide range
of established programs, including JobsOhio, as
well as grant funding to assist individuals acquire
the education necessary to work in modern manufacturing facilities. In addition, he referenced a
grant program in the House-passed budget that
encourages students to pursue specific careers in
areas deemed high-priority through the forgiveness of college debt.
What I hear from business and industry all
over is that they cant find people with the skills
they need to work in todays manufacturing facilities, he said. So I know theres a real emphasis
on that.

The caps used to be on the wealthiest districts, he said. Now its kind of inverted so that
the wealthiest districts are on a guarantee and the
other districts are on a cap. But the idea is that, in
the next budget, well continue to increase the aid
and that will lift the cap. Ultimately, the goal is to
get rid of caps and to get rid of guarantees.
Cupp then discussed House Bill 2, legislation
that addresses issues with public community
schools, also referred to as charter schools. He
commented that Ohio has some of the loosest laws in the country with regard to charter
schools and that the state also has a surfeit of
sponsors, those individuals and corporations that
finance the schools. He indicated that HB 2 is
designed to address the identified problem areas
and support those institutions that have proven
successful.
The bill has passed the house and is over in
the Senate, he said. The Senate is interested
in doing the same thing, so I think were going
to see some real reform in our charter and community schools and weed out those that arent
doing the job and, hopefully, be able to see and
strengthen those who are making improvements
for their students.
Finally, within the framework of legislation
effecting schools, Cupp said that a bill under consideration, HB 74, addresses a growing concern
for school districts throughout the state and the
country: the matter of mandated and unfunded testing. Already, the boards of education in
many school districts throughout the area have
implemented moratoriums on Partnership for
Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers
(PARCC) and American Institutes for Research
(AIR) testing, tests they say are unwieldy, expensive, time-consuming and unnecessary.
Our schools seem to be weighed down in a

I dont know that you understand what
you have at the edge of your village, he
said. We have 61 employees working for
Bee Line Trucking Company. Just recently
Celadon Trucking purchased us. They just
spent a $5 million investment at the edge of
your village. I think its insulting to them that
you guys would even think about closing that
piece of property. Theyre putting a major
investment in the Village of Ottoville and,
like I said, I think its insulting.
Basinger then opened himself up to questioning, at which point tempers on both sides,
strained by differing opinions and media
pressures, flared. The ensuing He said/She
said bickering and finger pointing ranged the
gamut from the Vetters accusing Basinger
of intentionally diverting truck traffic down
the unmarked street an action Basinger
acknowledged, though he accused Pat Vetter
of forcing the issue by denying Bee Lines
drivers access to a corner of his property to
Basinger accusing Vetter of verbally accosting a teenage employee, something that Vetter
steadfastly denied.
Contributing to the animus between the

two parties was a letter sent by the village


to both Main Street Market and Bee Line
Trucking that raised a concern about parking
at the restaurant/deli, an issue that may or
may not have come up at councils meeting
on April 20 (opinions about which varied
among council members and administrative
personnel) as well as a copy of an ordinance
drawn up five years ago that would have
vacated Dollar Street had they acted on it at
that time.
Ultimately, council negotiated a stop-gap
solution, enlisting the Vetters cooperation in
allowing Bee Line truckers to access a corner of their property. For his part, Basinger
offered assurances that, should Main Street
Market patrons partially park on Bee Line
property, agents of the trucking company will
not contact local law enforcement, a situation
that occurred twice in the past week.
Both parties agreed to the gentlemens
agreement in order to allow village officials to investigate alternatives, one of which
involves restructuring Dollar Street so that
it no longer proves a hazard to the Vetters
customers.
Council will next meet on May 18 at 7
p.m. in the village offices.

(MS) Mothers Day


is the one day each year
when men, women and
children across the country
gather to honor the mothers
in their lives. Though it can
be challenging to find new
and unique ways to display
your affection for Mom on
Mothers Day, rest assured
that sometimes the simplest concepts are the ones
mothers most appreciate.
This year, look no further
than the following ideas
for some inspiration as you
aim to make this Mothers
Day as special as possible
for the mother or mothers

treats made just for her?
Whether you decide to
whip up some homemade
confections in the kitchen
or visit a nearby store for
something decadent, mom
will no doubt appreciate
the chance to indulge on
her big day. Moms may
prefer cookies and portable snacks or tasty snacks
dipped or filled with popular flavors, such as chocolate and strawberry, and are
now available with green
tea cream. Pair with a cup
of tea, coffee or whichever
beverage mom prefers to

complement her favorite


treat.
Make a meal to remember. Mom deserves a
night off from dinner detail, and while dining out
is an option, a homemade
meal may come across as
more intimate and heartfelt. Thanks to kitchen
appliances that make it
easier than ever to prepare gourmet meals at
home, you can now make
restaurant-style meals in
your kitchen without sacrificing restaurant-quality
taste. Present mom with
her favorite dish or steam a
side of vegetables. Pair the
meal with her favorite wine
and make sure you handle
all the cleanup.
While mom waits
for dinner to be served, a
soothing cup of tea can set
the tone for a relaxing evening.

All I am or can be I owe to my angel Mother.

my success in life to the moral, intellectual and
physical education I received from her.

capital I have made my way.
- Andrew Jackson, U.S. President
The mothers heart is the childs schoolroom.

Unique gifts for Mothers Day

Whether shes still hard at


work raising children or her
kids have grown up and now
have children of their own,
Mom deserves our best efforts
come Mothers Day. And while
traditional gifts like flowers
and chocolate might
make
for
thoughtful
Mothers Day
gifts,
those
who want to go
the extra mile
for Mom this
year can consider the following
unique gift ideas.
Concert tickets: Many adults
recall the days of their youth
when Mom would relax while
listening to some of her favorite music on a lazy summer afternoon. Why not take a stroll
down Memory Lane and take
Mom to see one of her favorite acts in concert? Even if you
have outgrown Moms musical
tastes, she will still appreciate
the chance to spend an evening

out on the town with her kids


and some good music.
* Theater tickets: If Mom is a
fan of live theater then nothing will elicit a bigger smile
than tickets to a Broadway
show she has
had her eyes
on.
If Broadway is a
bit too far
for
you
to travel,
do your
homework
and
find a traveling production of a
former Broadway show.
Such productions often feature many of the same actors
who made the play famous
on Broadway so youre still
bound to see an unforgettable
show Mom will love.
A get-away trip to someplace she has always talked
about.
A gift card to favorite boutique, flower shop, jewelry or
tech store

Things your Mom


Always lovingly

While all of our moms are special, there are a


few who are real record breakers!

Jayne Blecley is the mother who


holds the record for the shortest interval
between two children born in separate
confinements. She gave birth to Joseph
Robert on September 3, 1999 and Annie
Jessica Joyce on March 30, 2000. The
babies were born 208 days apart.

survived infancy.
Jenna Cotton gave birth to three
children on the same day - October 2.
Her son Ayden, arrived on Oct. 2, 2003;
Son Logan was born Oct. 2, 2006, and
daughter Kayla was born on Oct. 2,
2007. The odds of a family having a
family with three children born on the
same date in a different year are about
7.5 in 1 million.

Elizabeth Ann Buttle is the mother who holds the record for the longest
interval between the birth of two children. She gave birth to Belinda on May
19, 1956 and Joseph on November 20,
1997. The babies were born 41 years
185 days apart. The mother was 60 years
old when her son Joseph was born.

All I do is follow you


around, picking up after you
like some maid!
As long as you live under
my roof, youll do as I say!
A little soap and water
never killed anyone!
Are you going out dressed
like that ?
Be good and call me when
you get there!
Bored! How can you be
bored. I was never bored at
your age!
Go ask your Father!
How many times do I have
to tell you?
How can you have nothing
to wear? Your closet is full of
clothes.

The highest officially recorded


number of children born to one mother
is 69, to the first wife of Feodor Vassilyev (1707-1783) of Shuya, Russia.
Between 1725 and 1765 in a total of 27
confinements, she gave birth to 16 pairs
of twins, Seven sets of triplets and four
sets of quadruplets. Sixty Seven of them

Tips on how to show a nurse you care


Nurses are often the first people patients
see when visiting hospitals or doctors offices.
According to the United States Department
of Health and Human Services Health Resources Services Administration, there were
2.8 million registered nurses, including advanced practice RNs, and 690,000 licensed
practical nurses, or LPNs, in the United States
between the years of 2008 and 2010.
Nurses fill many roles in the medical community, assisting doctors and helping to make
in-patient stays more comfortable for men
and women who are ill or injured. Specialized
nurses, such as nurse practitioners, may even
serve as the primary healthcare provider, offering diagnoses and writing prescriptions.
While there is a specific week set aside to
show appreciation to nurses, many people
agree that they deserve recognition throughout the year. Any instance is a good time to
give back to nurses, and the following are a
few ways to honor the nurses in your life.
Play caretaker to him or her. Nurses tend
to the needs of others all the time, but some

nurses do not get the respite they deserve.


Those who want to show appreciation to a
nurse who has helped them in their lives can
present the nurse with a gift card for a massage and soothing spa treatment.
Cater a meal. Offer to cater a meal at the
hospital or medical office so that all nurses
on staff can benefit. If there is one nurse in
particular you want to treat, give that nurse a
gift card to a nearby restaurant.
Provide foot relief. Nurses spend hours
on their feet, and that can cause pain or stiffness throughout the body. Present a gift card
to a store that specializes in comfort shoes or
custom orthotics. A certificate for a pedicure
or foot massage would no doubt be appreciated as well.
Create a charmed existence. Charm
bracelets are the rage right now, and nurses
may appreciate a bracelet that highlights their
career path with specific charms. For something they can wear on the job, treat nurses
to a Steth-o-Charm, which is a charm that
slides securely onto stethoscopes. These

Hospitals are central to health


A hospital is more than a place where
people go to heal, it is a part of the community that fosters health and represents
hope. From providing treatment and comfort to the sick, to welcoming new life into
the world, hospitals are central to a healthy
and optimistic community. Thats the message organizers are touting with the 2015
National Hospital Week theme Where
Miracles Happen Every Day.
The event theme is the centerpiece of
a promotional campaign aimed at uniting

health care facilities across the country


during the May 1016 celebration.
The nations largest health care event,
National Hospital Week dates back to 1921
when it was suggested by a magazine editor
who hoped a community wide celebration
would alleviate public fears about hospitals. The celebration, launched in Chicago,
succeeded in promoting trust and goodwill
among members of the public and eventually spread to facilities across the country.

charms come in many designs and can make


for a memorable gift.
Give a decorative badge reel. Nurses must
wear identification or have swipe cards on
their person to gain access to areas of hospitals. Many badges are standard items without any flare or style. A colorful or decorative
badge reel can be a nice way to brighten up a

nurses day.
Give verbal or handwritten thanks. One
of the easiest and most heartfelt ways to show
your appreciation to nurses is to simply tell
them how you feel. Offer a handwritten note
or speak with a nurse in person. Such a simple
gesture does not take much effort, but it is
bound to make an impact.

Nurses bring smiles to the faces of their patients. Find out how you can show your appreciation and garner a few smiles in return.
