live Thursday.
Delphosherald.com will
include a new user-friendly

During the first few
days, viewers may experience service interruptions
as the site goes live.
TOLEDO Algae that turned

Lake Erie green and produced toxins
that fouled the tap water for 400,000
people in the Toledo area are becoming a big headache for those who
keep drinking water safe even far
beyond the Great Lakes.
But with no federal standards on
safe levels for drinking algae-tainted
water and no guidelines for treating or
testing it either, water quality engineers
sometimes look for solutions the same
way school kids do their homework.
We are Googling for answers,
said Kelly Frey, who oversees a
municipal system in Ohio that draws
drinking water from the lake. We
go home and spend our nights on
the Internet trying to find how other
places manage it.
The contamination left about
400,000 people in parts of northwestern Ohio and southeastern Michigan
without clean tap water for two days
in August.
Spurred by the water emergency,

that saw thousands lining up for water
for two days in early August, a growing chorus is calling for the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency to
create a national standard for allowable amounts of microcystin, the toxin
that contaminated Toledos water.
Ohio, Oregon, Minnesota, Florida
and Oklahoma have set their own
drinking water standards for microcystin, which can cause headaches or
vomiting when swallowed and can
be fatal to dogs and livestock. Most
of those states rely on a measurement suggested by the World Health
Organization.
There needs to be one consistent
standard, said Dan Wyant, director of Michigans Department of
Environmental Quality.
Environmental regulators from
Ohio, Indiana and Michigan met with
U.S. EPA officials last month, asking
the agency to press not only for clear
water quality standards, but also a
strategy for reducing the pollutants
that help the algae thrive.

But it may be several more years
before the EPA is able to come up
with a new benchmark because a
great deal of study is still needed to
determine how different amounts of
the algae-related toxins affect people
of all ages, said Craig Butler, director
of the Ohio EPA.
That puts the states in a tough
spot, Butler said. We wish there
was more data and information, as
does U.S. EPA.
The federal agency is working
toward developing drinking water
advisories and testing methods that
would be released sometime next year
and give treatment plants and states
guidance for dealing with microcystin and another toxin, said Laura
Allen, a U.S. EPA spokeswoman.
Water plant operators contend
theres also a need for more guidance on how often to test the water
and more sharing of information on
combating the toxins.
Some cities where theres a known
threat of harmful algae take samples

daily, while others getting water from
the same source might run tests once
a week. Sometimes, it depends on
when the testing lab is available, said
Frey, the sanitary engineer in Ohios
Ottawa County.
The EPA did announce this past
week that it would put more money
toward helping cities along Lake Erie
monitor their water. Ohios environmental regulators also have pledged
help and have been taking a bigger
role in assisting water plants as of
late, Frey said.
That includes routine conference
calls over the past year between Ohio
EPA administrators and water plant
operators on the front line of the algae
threat, Butler said.
Algae outbreaks some that
leave behind a variety of toxins and
some that dont are popping up
increasingly in every state, fouling
rivers and lakes of all sizes.

Getting to Know
... a gospel
singer
Gary Adams
BY JIM LANGHAM
DHI Media Correspondent
news@delphosherald.com
VAN WERT Looking at the
singing schedule of Gary Adams and
the Trinity gospel singing group over
the next two months reveals an inclusive geography spread of over 600
miles ranging from Pigeon Forge,
Tenn., to Upper Sandusky.
This includes such events as the
Van Wert County Fair, Greenville
Christian Center, National Quartet
Convention, benefit for Susan Riley
(Ohio City), Van Wert County Apple
Festival and the Salvation Army
Gospel Harvest Festival.
This is nothing new for Adams,
whose earliest memories are his
mother and father performing and
traveling with a group known as,
Ambassador Quartet. His mother played the piano; other group
members included Carl Miller,

Paul Schwartz, Wendell Adams and
Howard Dunlap (lifetime Christian
Union pastor).
As his fathers health failed,
Adams was integrated into the group.
Following his fathers passing, his
mother (Nellie Adams) eventually
formed a group with her son and
Lorene Dougal.
We sang quite a bit. My mother
told me that I had been given the gift
of singing and to find a group and
sing with it, observed Adams.
Adams eventually formed the
group, Trinity, with the likes over
the years of Terry Amstutz, Adams,
Steve Placke, Scott Flemming, Betty
Dunno and Chuck Dunham. In 1984
they made their first serious recording at Gaither Studio in Alexandria,
Indiana.

Eventually, group members
moved on to other projects
and Adams reformed the
group with Kim Mason and
Cheryl Burk. That was 16
years ago and the ground has
gone on undisturbed over that
period of time.
Weve been together now
for 16 years. Thats unheard
of for groups these days,
said Adams.
For many years, the group
gave between 30 or 40 concerts per year. That number
has risen to over 100 concerts the past two years. In
addition, Trinity has completed major projects with the
well-known group, Talleys,
two in Nashville and one in
Morristown, Tn. Trinity also
performed with John Darin in
Wheelersburg, near the Ohio
River.
Although Adams has
spent most of his life as a
farmer, he has also served
in public life for 40 years,
including basketball officiating for 30 years, township trustee for 12 1/2 years
and 28 years as a Van Wert
County Commissioner, the
longest tenure of that office

in county history.
Group member Burk
works at Wee Day-Care
Center while Mason is a
hospice coordinator for a
13-county surrounding area.
One of Adams biggest
projects over the past 14
years has been the coordination of the well-known area
festival, Southern Gospel
Expo held at Trinity Friends
Church. During that time,
such nationally-known gospel groups as the Hoppers,
Browns and Talleys have
been part of the Expo. This
years event will take place
April 9-12, 2015, with the
Talleys taking center stage
with a concert on April 12 at
6:30 p.m..
When we go from place
to place, I love to meet
with pastors, said Adams.
Sometimes they have an
empty feeling in their hearts
and we are able to pray with
them.
One thing we can say
is that God always meets
our needs, added Adams.
When He calls us to sing,
He is faithful to seeing that it
happens.

In Iowas largest city, water plant workers decide when
to sample based on instinct and experience as opposed to
requirement, said Bill Stowe, chief executive of the Des
Moines Water Works. We have a public health need that tells
us we have to go beyond regulations.
Des Moines uses water from two rivers, both of which have
had high levels of algae-fueled toxins on a few separate occasions in recent years. The worry is what would happen if those
two drinking water sources are contaminated at the same time.
Its not a matter if, its a matter of when, Stowe said.
Weve had near misses, and realistically they were near
misses by the grace of God.
How many city water supplies could be vulnerable to toxins
from algae is difficult to pinpoint. Those that use groundwater are not at risk, but about two-thirds of the nations public
drinking water comes from lakes, rivers and manmade reservoirs.
Still, conditions have to be just right for harmful algal
blooms. The water needs a large dose of nutrients feeding
the algae, such as phosphorus from farm fertilizers, livestock
manure and sewage overflows. Heavy rainstorms washing
pollutants into the water and warm weather help the algae
grow, too.
Scientists say research suggests that climate change and
the increasing amount phosphorus may be why there have
been more harmful algae occurrences documented in recent
decades.
The lake that supplies drinking water for Waco, Texas, has
been plagued by algae since the mid-1980s. It hasnt reached
a dangerous level, but did make the water smell and taste so
bad that restaurant waitresses used to warn customers about
the Waco water.
The city completed a new $50 million treatment plant last
year that uses tiny bubbles to remove algae from the water and
ozone gas to destroy the toxins.
Those plants are common in Europe, but there are just four
in the U.S., said Tom Conry, the citys water quality manager.
We finally realized we cannot control our watershed, and
evidently no one else can, he said.
Conry doesnt think the process will work for every city
and believes the real solution is protecting drinking water from
pollutants that give life to the harmful algae. Were treating
the symptoms, but were not addressing the cause, he said.

Guardians tops box office for fourth weekend
Engagement
LOS ANGELES (AP) Guardians

of the Galaxy continues to rule the box
office universe.
The cosmic Marvel adventure arrived
in first place at the box office for a fourth
weekend with $10.2 million, according
to studio estimates Sunday. The domestic haul for Guardians, which features
Chris Pratt and Zoe Saldana as intergalactic do-gooders, now stands at $294.6
million after six weeks of release.
Guardians furthered cemented
itself as the top grossing film of the year
in North America, eclipsing the $259.8
million earned by fellow Marvel movie
Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
The sci-fi romp earned an additional
$11.5 million internationally, bringing
its worldwide total to $586.2 million.
Despite the continued success of
Guardians, the weekend box office
marked the slowest of the year with
the total for all films released projected at $65 million, down 23 percent
from a year ago, according to Paul

Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for
box-office tracker Rentrak.
Paramounts Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles sliced off second place in its fifth
weekend with $6.5 million, bringing the
domestic total of the live-action superhero
reboot starring Megan Fox and Will Arnett
to $174.6 million.
The Warner Bros. young-adult novel
adaptation If I Stay, starring Chloe
Grace Moretz, took third place in its
third weekend with $5.7 million.
The weekends only new release,
Freestyles musical drama The Identical,
dismally debuted in 11th place with $1.9
million. The film starring Ray Liotta and
Ashley Judd failed to achieve the successes of similar faith-based films as Heaven
Is for Real, Gods Not Dead and Son
of God released this year.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday

through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian
theaters, according to Rentrak. Where

available, the latest international numbers are also included. Final domestic
figures will be released today.
1. Guardians of the Galaxy, $10.2
million ($11.5 million international).
2. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
$6.5 million ($8.7 million international).
3. If I Stay, $5.7 million ($4.6 million international).
4. Lets Be Cops, $5.4 million
($4.1 million international).
5. The November Man, $4.2 million ($1 million international).
6. As Above, So Below, $3.7 million ($1.6 million international).
7. When the Game Stands Tall,
$3.7 million.
8. The Giver, $3.6 million ($1.8
million international).
9. The Hundred-Foot Journey, $3.2

NEW YORK (AP)

Unable to find her second

Jolie took to sifting through
generals.
Looking for a diamond in
the rough, the actress-turneddirector searched the movies that studios owned but
werent making.
So I scanned through
these generals and landed on

human spirit, of faith and survival at sea, says Jolie. It

was like a fever, an obsession, she says.
So I fought for it and I
fought for it and I fought for it,
says Jolie. It took me months
of fighting to get the job.
Even for the worlds most

claw their way to theaters. Its

a season for the movies most
unconventional
thinkers,
the ones dedicated to making a tragic Olympic wrestler drama (Foxcatcher)
or finding humor in North
Korea (The Interview).
Led by Unbroken (Dec.
25), this years fall is a battlefield of war stories, including Jolies (new) husband
Brad Pitt on the Western
Front in Fury (Oct. 17), a
WWII drama about a tank
of American soldiers. Clint
Eastwood also returns for his
second film this year with
American Sniper (Dec. 25),
starring Bradley Cooper as an
elite Navy SEAL marksman.
American tales, both triumphant and warped, will be numerous. In the based-on-a-true-story
Foxcatcher (Nov. 14) from
Bennett Miller (Capote,
Moneyball), an Olympic wrestler (Channing Tatum) is taken in
by a rich but demented benefactor
(Steve Carell). A year after David
Oyelowo and Oprah Winfrey
co-starred in The Butler, they
reteam for Selma (Dec. 25),
in which Oyelowo plays Martin
Luther King. (Winfrey is a producer.)
In The Interview (also
Dec. 25) from Seth Rogen
and his directing partner Evan
Goldberg, Rogen and James
Franco play journalists asked
by the CIA to assassinate Kim
Jong-un. Its distinguished as
the only autumn film a country (North Korea) has asked
President Obama to block.
An almost as unlikely
international pairing comes
in Rosewater, Jon Stewarts
adaptation of Maziar Bahari
memoir about being impris-
oned for 118 days for reporting

for Newsweek on the 2009
Iranian elections. (His appearance on The Daily Show
was used as evidence of him
being a spy.) Stewart, who
hadnt directed before, jumped
in as a writer and director only
because he and Bahari were
unable to find someone else.
We were four months
into it and nothing was done,
says Stewart. For me, whos
used to topical comedy on TV
the single most ephemeral
thing you can produce you
have an idea at 9 in the morning and by 6 oclock, its
done. In some ways, it was
impatience with the process.
So I just told Mazier, let me
just write this thing.
Many of the upcoming films like Alejandro
Inarritus Birdman, or
the Unexpected Virtue of
Ignorance (Oct. 17) with
Michael Keaton, and the
Reese Witherspoon drama
Wild (Dec. 5) will drum
up anticipation on the festival
circuit and hope to be drafted
into the awards season industrial complex, an increasingly all-consuming annual
rite of hype-soaked frenzy.
This year, one film will set
the seasons beat unlike any
other: Whiplash (Oct. 23).
In the Sundance hit, Miles
Teller plays an obsessively
focused jazz drummer at an
elite New York conservatory
under the strict tutelage of
a drill-sergeant teacher (J.K.
Simmons).
Absolutely where I connected to Andrew was his
drive and his ambition, says
Teller, the 27-year-old actor
whose 2013 breakout with
The Spectacular Now will

continue with Whiplash.
You can look at this movie
and say, Its destroying him.
Its killing him. Hes giving
away his humanity for his art.
But a lot of people go through
life not caring about anything
remotely as much as Andrew
cares about drumming.
Whereas Teller is a fresh
face to the gauntlet of awards
season, David Fincher is a seasoned veteran one who has
consistently avoided the seasons trappings. He directs one
of the falls most anticipated
movies, Gone Girl (Oct.
3), an adaptation of the bestselling Gillian Flynn novel,
starring Ben Affleck. Though
the storys twists are famous,
Fincher says he was drawn
by the murder mysterys portrait of narcissism, the 24-hour
news cycle and the notion of
tragedy vampirism.
The exploitation is somebody elses job, Fincher
says. Right now, its like:
Lets finish it and get it into
theaters. I dont put a lot of
emphasis on Lets see if this
can be decorated.
Other heavyweight filmmakers, of course, will be
debuting films this fall, including Paul Thomas Andersons
Thomas Pynchon adaptation,
Inherent Vice (Dec. 12),
starring Joaquin Phoenix.
But no film is more eagerly
awaited than Christopher
Nolans Interstellar (Nov.
7), a philosophical science fiction thriller starring
Matthew McConaughey. A
year after his Oscar win for
Dallas Buyers Club, the
McConaissance is going to
space.
Gold panning brings people from all over

COLUMBUS (AP) Jacob and Joseph
Morrison dont like to miss the reality show
Gold Rush on the Discovery Channel.
Gold digging is just really interesting,
said Joseph, 11, of Akron. Its fun to watch
their reactions when they find something.
Last weekend, during the annual Gold
Rush Days, he and his 15-year-old brother got
a chance albeit on a much smaller scale
to feel the emotion of coming across a gold
speck while panning.
The free annual event, which drew 1,500
people, takes place on the banks of the Clear
Fork of the Mohican River between Bellville
and Butler about 65 miles northeast of
Columbus.
From filling 5-gallon buckets with dirt
from the river and running the material
through a 10-foot sluice (a contraption that
separates sediment from water and larger
rocks) to panning the remaining material (the
concentrate), the Morrison brothers joined
several relatives in sampling every aspect of
the gold-prospecting process.
Its a modern-day version of what they
used to do during the gold rush, said Glenn
Snider, president of the Ohio Buckeye chapter of the Gold Prospectors Association of
America, the host of the event.
The two-day gathering included several
common digs, where groups work together to
dredge the river and share the spoils.
Gold Rush Days also featured panning
competitions, metal-detecting hunts and vendor demonstrations.
In its 16th year, the event offers a publicity
tool for introducing interested newcomers,
such as the Morrison boys, to the hobby and
an opportunity for allowing veteran prospectors to try new equipment, swap trade secrets
and of course pursue gold.
Tents and campers lined the riverbank dur-
ing the weekend, with some having made the

trip from as far as Dubai in the United Arab
Emirates and Maine.
(The land leased by the association for
recreational prospecting called the Swank
West Claim is usually reserved for member
use only; Gold Rush Days, though, open it to
the public.)
One camper boasted a sign that read
Prospector parking only. A dredge a
vacuum-like tool used for collecting material
from the river was placed in front of it,
with a For sale sign attached.
A few fires burned Aug. 31, despite the
rainy weather. Dogs ran off their leashes.
Children not digging still got drenched while
playing in the slow-moving river.
Although the area rarely yields gold pieces
larger than pepper flakes, it is considered rich
in the metal carried by glaciers at least tens of
thousands of years ago, said Troy Johnson, a
railroad machinist and a founding member of
the Ohio Buckeye chapter.
In my early days, I found enough gold in
Ohio to pay for half a four-wheeler about
$1,700, said Johnson, 50, of the Sandusky
County town of Clyde.
Thats a lot of specks.
Yet most of the people who attended the
event as well as the 350 members of the
chapter went not to strike it rich but simply
to enjoy the thrill of the treasure hunt and the
camaraderie.
The gold you find isnt in your hand,
said Snider, 67, of Mansfield. Its the people
and sharing a common interest.
Still, he couldnt help showing off a small
box of booty from his six years of prospecting.
Almost every person encountered on the
claim also had vials of gold some from
Ohio, some not and stories of favorite
hauls to share.

LIMA What a difference a day

makes.
On Friday when the St. Johns Blue
Jays traveled to Lima to take on the
Lima Central Catholic Thunderbirds, the
weather was so hot the fans broke into a
sweat just walking up the new bleachers
of Spartan Stadium.
The St. Johns offense was also hot,
scoring on a 60-yard pass play from Nick
Martz to Aaron Reindel on the second
play of the first series. The Thunderbirds
shut down the Jays offense for the rest of
the first half.
The T-Birds offense drove into the
red zone three times in the first half but
only managed to score once as Nick
Taflinger hauled in a 50-yard bomb from
Ethan OConnor. Taflingers extra point
put L.C.C. in the lead 7-6 at halftime.
After the teams exchanged punts to
open the second half, lightning stopped
the game with 6:22 remaining in the
third quarter and the teams were told to
resume the action at 3 p.m. Saturday.
Thats when the heroes behind the
scenes when to work. With most games
around the area postponed, hundreds of
area football players came home late
with dirty uniforms that needed cleaned.
Many parents stayed up late Friday
evening making sure their athletes were
ready to go back to action the next day.
On Saturday, cooler temperatures
invaded the region as many fans wore
jackets for the restart of the contest and
the Jays heated back up, rallying for a
20-14 victory.
When play resumed, the Blue Jays took
St. Johns Eric Vogt hauls pass for a 8-yard gain during the third quarter of the Blue Jays postponed game with LCC on Saturday. (DHI Media/Larry Heiing)
over on their own 43. On the first play,
Martz ran 16 yards on an option keeper
and two plays later, Martz hit Tyler Conley
for a first down at the 31. Despite two
penalties (15 yards), the Jays needed four
plays to finish it off: Martz ran down the
right side for a 16-yard touchdown, capping off the 57 yard drive on eight plays.
Brian Pohlmans point after was good as
the Jays jumped back in front 13-7 with
1:44 left in the third quarter.
That first drive couldnt have went like
we were hoping it would, St. Johns head
coach Todd Schulte said after the game. It

was a short night and early morning for our
coaches and team and we were thinking
about adjustments all night. We made some
tweaks on our formations and running
game and it paid off on the first drive.
The T-Birds drove into the red zone for the
fourth time in the game on their first series of
the new day. Two keepers by OConnor and
a pass pushed the ball to the St. Johns 24 as
time expired in the third quarter.

Rockets sweep Lady Jeffcats in volleyball

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

already seen a power-hitting
Ottoville squad Thursday when
they faced another Putnam
County League volleyball squad
Pandora-Gilboa Saturday
morning at Jefferson High
School.
The result was the same: a
3-set loss, 25-10, 25-17, 25-12.
The Lady Wildcats (3-2)
struggled to get anything going
offensively, with senior Brooke
Culp registering three assists to
lead the way.
All three sets took on something of the same form: close
for a while but the attack of the
Lady Rockets took over down
the stretch.
Even when the Wildcats
could slow down the attack,
they were unable to generate a
consistent attack of their own.
We just couldnt score. We
were right there in the early
going of each set but it gets
frustrating when you cant get
points, Jefferson acting head
coach Josh Early explained.
Pandora did a nice job of
either getting touches at the net
or digging up everything; they
didnt let anything hit their
side of the floor. We stayed
close but our lack of offense
prevented us from finishing.
The Wildcats tried their
best to slow down the attack
of the likes of Rocket senior
Mackenzie Swary (5-8), sopho-
Jeffersons Claire Thompson gets a touch on a spike

try from Pandora-Gilboas Serena Maag Saturday afternoon at Jefferson High School. (DHI Media/Randy Shellenbarger)
more Alexa Maag (5-9) and
classmate Presley Hovest (5-10).
Serving also was a strength
of the visitors with nine aces
in the second set alone (3 by

Brittany Hovest and 2 each
Katelyn Conine and Serena
Maag). In fact, there were very
few errors committed by the

hosts as of the 25 points P-G
scored in the second set, only
five were by mis-hits, while the
Rockets committed 12. After the
Wildcats took a 13-12 lead on
a hit off the block by senior
Desteni Lear, a hitting error tied
the set and two aces by Serena
Maag and a hit and a stuff by
Alexa Maag gave the visitors
impetus to take the second set
on an ace by Swary on set point.
The third set followed its predecessors: close for a while, then
the visitors pulled away. After a
bump winner by Jefferson freshman Devin Carder got them
within 9-8, serving error seemed
to give Pandora momentum.
They turned to their attack at the
net to register 10 kills the rest of
the way and earned the sweep
on a hitting error.
I was disappointed in our
third set. Part of it was that we
were down and its tough to
come back, Early added.
Sometimes, playing on
Saturday mornings, even at
home, is just tough to do; youre
just not used to it. We had two
matches earlier this week and
Im sure the girls were up late
watching the football game;
thats high school. You dont
have a lot of time to practice
once you get into the meat of the
schedule, so you have to pick
things up on the fly.
The Lady Rockets junior
varsity downed the Lady
Wildcats (3-2) in three sets.
Jefferson hosts Antwerp 5:30
p.m. today.
Blue Jay boys sixth at Spencerville CC

By JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
SPENCERVILLE The St. Johns boys

cross country team was the highest-placing
local team in the 38th annual Spencerville
Bearcat Cross Country Invitational on a cooler Saturday morning.
The Blue Jays, with the return of Evyn
Pohlman, finished sixth out of 13 full teams
in the Boys Red Division.
Their top finisher was Curtis Pohlman in
ninth and Nick Pohlman in 36th.
On the girls side, the Blue Jays did not
have a full team. Breece Rohr ended up 14th
and Baylee Lindeman 40th.
Evyn has been dealing with his prosthesis

and he was able to run today. He gutted it
out; he hadnt been able to train much for
6-8 weeks, St. Johns coach Steve Hellman
said. The cooler weather was much better
for us today and I think you could see it
in the times. Baylee has been impressive.
She has taken almost four minutes off her
personal record from last year. The summer
miles are paying off, too. What we will be
looking for the next few weeks is to work
more on speed; they have the foundation
when it comes to conditioning, so we will do
more speed work.
The Ottoville boys under mentor Bob
Kaple ended up tied for ninth (with Fort
Recovery), with Eric Von Sossan and Cody
Kemper 45th and 52nd, respectively.

The Lady Big Green competed as individuals, with their best racers McKenna
Byrne (36th) and Elizabeth Luersman (49th).
The boys just keep improving. We only
have two seniors in our top six, so we have a
lot of younger runners, Kaple said. Were
slowly moving up in the team ranks and Im
hoping with the weather cooperating, we
can keep doing so; its better to train in coller
weather. Its more a mental approach now
than physical; they have the conditioning.
The girls keep getting better as well. Its the
same thing for them as well; we focus on
being strong mentally.

Mets knock off sloppy Reds

Carrascos gem leads
By MARK SCHMETZER
Indians past White Sox 2-0
Associated Press
CLEVELAND (AP) Just
about everybody in the ballpark
wanted Carlos Carrasco to finish off his first career complete
game Sunday.
Including the guy who
took him out.
He had pitched great,
but I thought it was time
to get him out of there,
Cleveland manager Terry
Francona said after Carrasco
worked 8 2-3 innings and the
Indians defeated the Chicago
White Sox 2-0 to complete a
three-game sweep.
Carrasco (7-4) allowed
four hits, struck out eight and
didnt walk a batter, extending his remarkable turnaround

since rejoining the rotation last
month.
However, with two on and
the potential go-ahead
run at the plate, Carrasco
knew Francona would
come to the mound and
call for closer Cody Allen.
I wanted to finish so
bad, said Carrasco, who
waved toward the dugout
after Jose Abreus two-out single in a last-ditch attempt to stay
in. He made the right move,
but I was thinking, give me one
more, please.
CINCINNATI The opportunistic New York Mets pounced

when the Cincinnati Reds made a couple of costly mistakes.
Anthony Recker and Curtis Granderson
homered, and New York scored four unearned
runs in a 4-3 victory over the Reds on Sunday.
The four unearned runs were the most
allowed by Cincinnati since June 27, 2012,
according to the Reds. Nobody appreciated the gifts more than
Mets manager Terry Collins.
You dont get many, he said. Youve got to capitalize on that.
Zach Wheeler (10-9) pitched six solid innings, improving
to 7-1 with a 2.21 ERA over his last 13 starts. The right-hander
allowed one run and five hits, struck out six and hit two batters.
The Reds began the day with a major league-low 62 errors.
But center fielder Billy Hamilton dropped a fly ball in New
Yorks three-run sixth, and first baseman Jack Hannahan flubbed
Grandersons foul popup in the eighth. Granderson then hit a
solo shot for his 18th homer.

AJ Greens TD gives Bengals

23-16 win over Ravens
Associated Press
BALTIMORE The Cincinnati
Bengals had given away a 15-point
lead, were still in search of their first
touchdown and seemed poised to absorb
another devastating defeat in their
personal House of
Pain.
Thats
when
receiver A.J. Green
got into the huddle
and told his teammates, We got one
play. Lets make this play.
Green did more than just talk. He
caught a 77-yard touchdown pass from
Andy Dalton with 4:58 left to provide
Cincinnati with a feel-good 23-16 win
over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
Green got behind cornerback Chykie
Brown, who was pressed into a starting
role for the injured Lardarius Webb.
Brown got a hand on the ball, which
popped from Greens grasp before he
gathered it in. After putting a fake on
safety Darian Stewart, Green trotted into
the end zone.
The subsequent 2-point conversion
made it 23-16 and the Bengals held on.
Dalton went 25 for 38 for 301 yards
to help the Bengals end a 4-game losing
streak in Baltimore.
The go-ahead score came just 48 seconds after Baltimore newcomer Steve
Smith caught an 80-yard touchdown
pass from Joe Flacco, who overcame
a slow start to finish 35 for 62 for 345
yards and an interception.
It was the longest touchdown throw
of Flaccos career but the offense as a
whole sputtered in its first outing under
coordinator Gary Kubiak.
Following Greens score, Flacco took
the Ravens to the Cincinnati 16 before
he was sacked on third and fourth down,
the last with 55 seconds left.
Mike Nugent kicked five field goals
to give the Bengals a 15-0 halftime lead.
Baltimore cut it to 15-10 before
Smith broke his pattern to go deep as
Flacco scrambled out of the pocket.
Smith hauled in a pass along the left
sideline and shook off Adam Pacman
Jones with his right arm before stepping
into the end zone.
Smith, who played 13 seasons with
Carolina before signing as a free agent,
finished with seven catches for 118
yards in his Ravens debut.
Playing without starting running back
Ray Rice, who began a 2-game suspension for domestic violence, the Ravens
mustered only 91 yards rushing.
Starter Bernard Pierce, who gained
14 yards on six carries and lost a fumble,
was overshadowed by Justin Forsett,
who ran for 70 yards and a touchdown.
Both teams were affected by injuries.
Baltimore placed Webb on the inactive list with a back injury, and Dalton
repeatedly picked on Brown.
The Bengals lost Pro Bowl linebacker Vontaze Burfict to a concussion
late in the second quarter and tight end
Tyler Eifert left in the first half with a
right elbow injury.
Flacco was booed by many in the
sellout crowd after throwing an interception to end a promising third-quarter
possession. On Baltimores next series,
however, Flacco finally put together his
first scoring drive of the season.
Completing six of seven passes for
63 yards, he moved the Ravens 82 yards
for a touchdown a 13-yard run by
Forsett.
Baltimores defense then produced its
batted the ball back out of the end zone as the

Jays downed the ball at the 1.
With LCC facing a third-and-9, Wes
Buettner delivered a big play, tipping
OConnors third pass; it was intercepted
by Evan Hays at the 20 and he returned it to
the 14. Martzs run up the middle combined
with a T-Bird penalty drove the football to
the 4. Harrison ran it in from there with 3:30
remaining and Pohlmans extra point gave the
Jays a 20-7 lead.
With the T-Birds explosive spread offense,
no lead is safe as OConnor took over after the
kickoff at his own 38. He scrambled for 12,
hit Dmitri Floyd for 20 and added an 11-yard
run. A pass to brother Aidan OConnor
was broken up at the goal line by St. Johns
Zach Fisher who was playing with a bro-

first three-and-out and Flacco followed

with a 14-play drive that produced a
38-yard field goal to make it 15-10 with
10:28 remaining.
Nugent connected on field goals of
49, 22, 28, 46 and 38 yards before halftime; Baltimores lone sustained drive
ended horribly on the final play of the
half.
Down 15-0, the Ravens moved to the
Cincinnati 15 with 8 seconds left. Flacco
bounced around in the pocket, cut right
as time expired and was sacked, ending
Baltimores chance to at least get a field
goal.
Browns rally falls short in 30-27
loss to Steelers
PITTSBURGH Johnny Manziel
might want to get comfortable in a baseball cap.
Brian Hoyer isnt going anywhere.
Not yet anyway.
The journeyman who held off the
Heisman Trophy winner to grab the
starting quarterback job in Cleveland
lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 30-27 on
Sunday but he might have won over a
few of his critics in the process.
Hoyer and the Browns roared back
from a 24-point halftime deficit to tie the
game at 27 before the Steelers survived
on Shaun Suishams 41-yard field goal
at the final gun.
While first-year coach Mike Pettine
said simply we failed, he also
didnt panic after watching Hoyer and
Clevelands depleted offense stumble
in the first half. Instead, he ordered the
offense to push the tempo. Hoyer and
backup running backs Terrance West
and Isaiah Crowell responded with 20
minutes of brilliance as the Browns
scored four times to
draw even.
Ben Roethlisberger.
the Steelers star,
passed for 365 yards
and a score and hit
Markus Wheaton twice during the final
drive to bring Suisham within range to
win it.
Hoyer nearly started a legend of his
own on a day that began with what
looked like another episode of Same
Old Browns.
The lowlight came in the middle of
the second quarter when Pittsburghs
Antonio Brown raced up field with a
punt return. When the Pro Bowler came
upon Cleveland punter Spencer Lanning,
Brown tried to leap over Lanning only to
end up smacking Lanning in the facemask with his cleat.
The play drew an unnecessary roughness penalty on Brown perhaps the
first ever by a punt returner and
comic laughter from the sun-splashed
crowd delighting in what appeared to
be just another mauling in a series full
of them.
The Browns somehow pulled themselves up despite playing without wide
receiver Josh Gordon (suspension), running back Ben Tate (who left in the
second quarter with a knee injury) and
tight end Jordan Cameron (who left in
the second half with shoulder trouble).
Instead it was Hoyer and a couple
of unknowns behind him who led the
way. West darted for 100 yards and
Crowell scored a pair of touchdowns as
the Browns tied the game when Hoyer
scrambled left and found Benjamin in
the corner of the end zone.
After sometimes frantic play for the
games first 50 minutes, both teams
squandered chances to take control.
Clevelands last gasp came with a first
ken hand. Finally, an OConnor pass found

paydirt hitting Floyd in the end zone with
only 1:32 remaining on the Spartan Stadium
scoreboard. Tafflingers point extra cut the
lead to 20-14.
An onside kick attempt was recovered by
Tim Kreeger as he came up with big play for
the second week in a row. LCC held for a
3-and-out but had to call their final timeouts
with 39 seconds remaining.
Haggards punt was fair caught at the
LCC 23. A pass to Floyd was nearly intercepted by Mohler, followed by a completion
to Tafflinger running of out bounds at the
26 with 24 seconds remaining. Martz nearly
picked off an OConnor pass deep down field.
OConnors final pass fell incomplete on the
turf as the Jays were victorious.

down its own 20 with 1:53 to go. A

sack, an incompletion and an ill-advised
screen gave the Steelers the ball back
at the Pittsburgh 43 with 47 seconds
remaining.
Just enough time, it turns out, for
Roethlisberger to complete his 34th
game-winning drive.

ATLANTA Matt Bryant kicked a 51-yard field goal
on the final play of regulation, then booted a 52-yarder
in overtime to give the Atlanta Falcons a 37-34 victory
over the New Orleans Saints.
In another thriller between the NFC South rivals
Sunday, Matt Ryan threw for a franchise-record 448
yards, leading the Falcons to just their fourth victory
over the Saints in the last 17 meetings. This one was
particularly sweet for Atlanta (1-0) coming off a miserable 4-12 season, its first losing campaign since 2007.
The teams combined for 17 points in the final 2:50
of the fourth quarter to force overtime. The Saints (0-1)
got the ball first, but Marques Colston fumbled after
catching a pass over the middle. The Falcons recovered
at the Saints 38; after three plays gained only 4 yards,
Bryant booted through another long field goal.
BILLS 23, BEARS 20, OT
CHICAGO Fred Jackson set up Dan Carpenters
field goal in overtime with a 38-yard run to the 1, and the
Bills stunned the Bears.
The Bears (0-1) had just punted to open the extra
period and Buffalo took over on its 22. The Bills (1-0)
got to the Chicago 39 when Jackson turned toward the
left side and broke off his big run, pushing safety Chris
Conte out of the way twice inside the 10 before being
knocked out of bounds at the 1.
Carpenter won it with a 27-yarder.
DOLPHINS 33, PATRIOTS 20
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. Knowshon Moreno
rushed for 134 yards and a touchdown, Ryan Tannehill
threw for two scores and the Dolphins overpowered
New England after halftime.
The Dolphins (1-0) outscored New England 23-0 in
the second half.
Tannehill had touchdown throws to Lamar Miller and
Mike Wallace as Miami debuted a faster-paced offense.
The Dolphins defense made four sacks, all in the second half, and recovered two fumbles.
Tom Brady threw a scoring pass to Rob Gronkowski
and Shane Vereen had a TD rushing for New England.
It was New Englands first loss in an opener since
2003 and marks the first time the Patriots (0-1) will not
be at least tied for the AFC East lead since Week 3 of
2012.
EAGLES 34, JAGUARS 17
PHILADELPHIA Nick Foles threw a 68-yard
touchdown pass to Jeremy Maclin in the fourth quarter
and the Eagles rallied from a 17-0 second-half deficit.
Chad Henne threw two touchdown passes to rookie
Allen Hurns in the first quarter and the Jaguars (0-1)
dominated the defending NFC East champion Eagles
(1-0) in the first two quarters.
But whatever Chip Kelly said to his players at
halftime worked.
The Eagles scored TDs on their first two possessions in the third quarter. Cody Parkey hit a 51-yard
field goal on his first career attempt in the fourth quarter
to tie it 17-17.
Then Foles made a perfect deep throw to a wideopen Maclin for the longest pass of his career to put the
Eagles ahead 24-17.
TEXANS 17, REDSKINS 6
HOUSTON (AP) Rookie Alfred Blue blocked a
punt and returned it for a touchdown and J.J. Watt lived
up to his massive new contract to help Texans snap a
14-game losing streak.
The Texans led 7-6 after a 76-yard touchdown
reception by DeAndre Hopkins in the second quarter.
Blue blocked Washingtons punt on the next drive,
scooped it up and returned it 5 yards for a touchdown
to push the lead to 14-6 in Bill OBriens first game as
an NFL head coach.
Watt had a sack, blocked an extra point, recovered
a fumble and swatted down a pass in his first game
since signing a 6-year, $100 million contract Monday.
First overall pick Jadeveon Clowney had a tackle for
a loss in the first half before leaving with a knee injury.
Robert Griffin III threw for 267 yards, but Washington
was done in by two second-half fumbles in Jay Grudens
debut as an NFL head coach.
VIKINGS 34, RAMS 6
ST. LOUIS Wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson
ran for 102 yards on three carries with a 67-yard scoring
run off a simple pitchout and the Vikings opened impressively under new coach Mike Zimmer.
The Rams handled Adrian Peterson, limiting the
star runner to 75 yards on 21 carries. They had zero
luck with Patterson, who had three touchdowns rushing
as a rookie.
Rams quarterback Shaun Hill lasted one half as the
stand-in starter for Sam Bradford, missing the rest of
the game with a thigh injury and leaving untested Austin
Davis in charge. Hills last pass was intercepted by Josh
Robinson with 1:09 to go in the half, setting up Matt
Cassels 8-yard pass to Greg Jennings for a 13-0 lead.
TITANS 26, CHIEFS 10
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Jake Locker threw for 266
yards and two touchdowns, while Alex Smith was intercepted three times.
That final 3 minutes of the game felt like

it lasted an hour, Schulte added. We are
2-0 for a team with a lot of question marks is
huge! Well take it.
LCC garnered 17 first downs to 15 for the
Jays. St. Johns actually outgained the T-Birds
in total yardage 313-303. Martz was an efficient 12 of 18 passing for 166 yards while
running for 85. Harrison toughed out 67 yards
on 12 attempts. Vogt hauled in four passes for
44 yards and Aaron Reindel had two.
OConnor completed 19 of 44 passes for
203 yards with a pair of touchdowns along
with two interceptions. Taflinger caught four
tosses for 96 yards.
St. Johns (2-0) will open up league play
next Friday at home against Versailles.
LCC (1-1) will face Edgerton.
Elidas girls grabbed seventh in the 12-team Black Division, with

Alyssa Turrentine ninth and Tori Bowen 34th.
On the boys side, they were 11th of 14, with Gaerid Littler nabbing
20th and Eric Anthony 50th.
We have some injuries on this team but they are battling through.
Alyssa was ninth and Im extremely pleased with that; she was 15th
as a freshman and 12th as a sophomore, Elida coach Bruce Marshall
said. I like how were progressing this season; I think everybody or
almost everybody set a PR today. We have a lot of young runners
that are just getting better and this is a good competition to gauge where
you stand.

PIZZA HUT...
More than just
delicious pizza
Chris Mitchener became
the manager of the local
Pizza Hut about 7 years ago,
after leaving the Van Wert
store where she worked for
12 years. Her transition has
been a successful one, as
she has instilled the restaurant with a management
philosophy that focuses on
making the customers feel
at home.
Whats important to us
is doing whats right for the
customer and treating them
like a guest in our own
home, she said.
Mitchener enjoys the
small-town atmosphere of
Delphos because it allows
her to really talk to the
customers and spend time
with them. In doing so,
she tries to promote the
idea of keeping restaurant
sales within the community.
We want people to
come in and give us a try
instead of going to eat in
nearby towns. We want to
keep the sales in our community, she added. Pizza
Hut is a great, casual atmo-
sphere for lunch with a

friend, a family gathering
or school or business function.
Come in and see the
improvements
theyve
made to the store recently.
The parking lot has been
repainted and theyve had
some equipment updates.
In order to increase the
traffic through the Pizza
Hut doors, Mitchener has
introduced new menu items
that some customers may
not be aware of.
We have a new Honey
BBQ Cheddar pizza,
a Smokehouse
BBQ
Cheddar pizza and our
newest pizza is our threecheese bacon stuffed crust,
she said.
Theyve also recently
upgraded the childrens
menu. Meals now include
an entree and a side dish
with a drink for just $4.49.
The entrees include pizza,
spaghetti, chicken wings,
ham and cheese sandwich
or cavatini. The sides are
vegetables with ranch dip,
fruit or pudding cup, bread
sticks or garlic bread with

cheese.
Kids can also enjoy the
Pizza Hut Birthday Club
by filling out an entry and
get free kids meals on their
birthday. A certificate will
arrive in the mail.
For dessert, customers
can enjoy a succulent
slice of cheesecake topped
with their choice of cherry
or chocolate for $2.99 a
slice.
Despite the tantalizing new menu options, the
most popular item at Pizza
Hut is wait for it
the pizza! Perhaps the most
popular way to enjoy the
pizza is at the lunch buffet, which is available from
11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday
through Friday and on
Sunday, as well as 5-8 p.m.
on Wednesday. Daytime
prices are $6.99 per person
and the night buffet goes
for $7.99. Managers are
constantly adding pipinghot pizzas to the buffet and
welcome input from customers as to what types of
pizza they would like to see
Pizza Hut is located at 133 E. Fifth Street, Delphos.

featured.
Pizza Hut makes their
dough fresh every day with
flour and a mixer. Most
pizza places use frozen
dough. The local Pizza Hut
is also the last franchise
to offer the original thin
n crispy pizza with fresh
dough and original sauce.
Mitchener says the most
popular item on the buffet is the cinnamon sticks,
which often disappear as
fast as the staff can supply
them. She points out that
despite the wide variety of
pizza choices, the classic
pepperoni is still the most
popular, with the taco pizza
close on its heels.
Some current specials
include a large pizza with
up to three toppings for
The buffet is offered at lunch M-F from 11-1, Sunday from 11-1 & Wednesday evenings from 5-8
and features 9 or 10 different kinds of pizza, dessert pizzas, breadsticks, cinnamon sticks, alfredo

They are always looking
for new people. Currently,
Mitchener is looking to add
some new drivers to her
team.
The Delphos Pizza Hut
currently has 20 employees ranging from adults to
teenagers.
I try to hire employees
from all the local schools,
Mitchener said. We have
students from Jefferson,
St. Johns, Fort Jennings
and Lincolnview as well
as college students from
UNOH and Wright State
University. Having a parttime job is a great
way for teenagers to meet
new people and make new
friends.

Pizza Hut is trying to
get more of our customers
to order online, Mitchener
said. So the best deals are
usually online.
The restaurant also is
increasing its catering
efforts. In addition, businesses can place big
orders
and have them
delivered during lunch as
long as they place the order
a day in advance. Normal
delivery times are 4-10 p.m.
Sunday through Thursday
and 4-11 p.m. Friday and

to give their customers a
