DELPHOS Delphos resident Jackie Fritz has
been an integral part of many Canal Days celebra-
tions and in 1976, during the quasquicentennial when
Delphos celebrated its 125th birthday the com-
munity came together and embraced presenting the
history of Delphos through the production A Time to
Remember.
We tried to re-create something from the 1951 pro-
duction of Delphos history out at Stadium Park, she
explained. I remember a lot of kids high school and
elementary being involved.

EMA director confirms tornado west of Delphos
A corn crib on the Gordon Moenter property at 9874 Shenk Road was damaged
by what Van Wert County Emergency Management Director Rick McCoy is call-
ing an unconfirmed EF-0 tornado. (Submitted photo)
INFORMATION SUBMITTED
VAN WERT COUNTY A suspected
tornado struck eastern Van Wert County on
Wednesday afternoon.
According to Van Wert County Emergency
Management Director Rick McCoy, a storm
cell moved through eastern Van Wert County
at 5:10 p.m. just west of Delphos and caused
damage over a 1 1/2-mile area. McCoy said
from witness reports and damage observed,
a tornado had moved through the area and
he was waiting on official confirmation from
the National Weather Service in Northern
Indiana.
McCoys damage survey included the fol-
lowing information:
The tornado initially touched down in corn
field east of Brickner Road and .1 mile south
of Lincoln Highway which is 1.25 west of the
City of Delphos.
The damage path coming out of the field
was 25 yards wide and had flattened and
ripped corn out of the ground carrying it across
Brickner Road. It then crossed Brickner Road
moving to the northeast with a path going
through a bean field.
It then struck the Craig Beining property
at 10671 Brickner Road, ripping numerous
shingles off a barn roof and ripping one barn
door off of north side of the barn. It then
crossed Lincoln Highway and struck the Joe
Wittler property at 23121 Lincoln Highway
uprooting a tree and tearing numerous limbs
out of several trees. It then ripped a barn
door off the east side of a Morton building
and off the north side of a larger barn and
tore off numerous slate shingles from this
barn roof.
Wittler observed the rain-wrapped tor-
nado approaching and all he could see
was the shingles from the neighbors barn
swirling around in the rain as it came at
him.
He stated he heard a loud whoosh and
it hit before the family could even get to
the basement. The path continued north-
east, cutting through two beans fields and
crossing Pohlman Road. It then cut through
another bean field and then came to the
Gordon Moenter property located at 9874
Shenk Road, where damage in the field
was still measured at 25 yards wide.
It split a large tree, tore the roof off of a
barn, which was found in splintered pieces
across the road and out into the bean field.
It also tore the barn door off the east side of
another barn.

DELPHOS Despite the
rainy weather Wednesday
afternoon, the Buick Driving
Enthusiasts Club rolled into
Delphos to tour the Postal
Museum, Canal Commission,
Black Swamp Trading Post
and have lunch.
Bruce and Shar Kile,
who are from Georgia, are
the members of the group
who organized the outing
in Delphos. They explained
their club is a division of
the Buick Club of America,
which has 300 members
nationally and 9,000 mem-
bers internationally.
Our division was formed
20 years ago and all we do is
tour, Kile said. We travel
across the country and our
hub is located in Bryan.
The group travels each
day for an event. Tuesday, the
enthusiasts toured Van Werts
Wassenberg Art Center
and Central Fire Museum.
Prior to coming to Delphos
Wednesday, the group visited
the Armstrong Air and Space
Museum in Wapakoneta.
Delphos just kinda fell
into the route when my wife
and I were looking for an
organized event, Kile said.
We have a group that really
loves their ice cream, so a
trip to the Creamery is also
on the itinerary.
Kile said they have 39
Buicks in the group and
all of them are from 1941
through 2012. He said the
oldest of the fleet is a 1941
Roadmaster and there are
two 1954 Specials and a
1955 Special.
Despite the rainy weather Wednesday afternoon, the Buick Driving Enthusiasts Club rolled into Delphos to
tour the Postal Museum, Canal Commission Museum, Black Swamp Trading Post and have lunch. Above:

DELPHOS Delphos Public Library
Director Kelly Rist continues to look for
viable options for a digital message cen-
ter to be placed on the lawn at the library.
Library Board members have seen
several options and asked Rist to bring
any more information to the boards
attention as she collects it.
Prices have ranged from approximate-
ly $16,000-$38,000.
The board accepted the resignation
of part-time employee Heather Keller.
Keller has accepted a position with Van
Wert City Schools and her last day at the
library will be Sept. 20.
The library will hire two pages in the
near future. Applications are available at
the library.
Several building improvements
are under consideration. Rist and Lee
Construction recently toured the outside
of the building and discovered moss
growing on the upper masonry, some
faulty fascia and the painted lettering is
wearing off.
Rist also announce the the parking
lot was resealed and restriped on Sept.
3. Black Top Sealing of Lima completed
the job for $1,744.
The library is also gearing up
for its participation in Canal Days
festivities. The library will again
collaborate with the Delphos Area
Art Guild for the Creativity and
Activity Tent for children. Events
will be offered from 11 a.m. to
3 p.m. Sept. 20 and include Off
the Wall activities like graffiti art,
splatter painting, a mini-scavenger
hunt and more.
The teens recently tried out all the
activities to make sure they work and
they had a really good time, Rist said.
I think the kids are going to like what
weve planned and Im excited to see
them do it.

OSUs Farm Science Review to showcase
future of agriculture September 16-18
HARDIN COUNTY Throughout
its history, Ohio State Universitys Farm
Science Review has been at the forefront of
showcasing the future of agriculture. The
Molly Caren Agricultural Center (MCAC)
near London, Ohio, is home to the Farm
Science Review and attracts upwards of
140,000 visitors from all over the United
States and Canada, who come for three
days to peruse 4,000 product lines from
600 commercial exhibitors, and learn the
latest in agricultural production. The edu-
cational programs feature Ohio State and
Purdue specialists and are second to none
in the agricultural exhibition world.
The 80-acre exhibit area allows visitors
and exhibitors to experience all aspects of
agriculture production. Inside the exhibit
area are the static displays, but the FSR
dedicates over 600 acres of land for field
demonstrations such as corn and soybean
combines, tillage, nutrient and lime appli-
cations and drainage installations.
The Gwynne Conservation Area, GCA,
is a 67-acre demonstration and education
area for agriculture and natural resourc-
es management practices. The Gwynne is
home to a natural stream, wetland, ponds,
windbreak plantings, crop tree plantings,
wildlife food plots, soil pit, riparian forests,
dry hydrant and much more. The Gywnne
also has an all-season log cabin where edu-
cational sessions and classes are taught.
As we move forward improving the
Farm Science Review, we cannot forget
the people and places that provided the
foundation of what the FSR is today.
Roy M. Kottman, a former dean of
Ohio States College of Food, Agricultural
and Environmental Sciences (known as
the College of Agriculture at the time),
is credited for launching Farm Science
Review. At the time, the college was
looking for a replacement to Farm and
Home Week, a 46-year-old program that
came to its end in 1959. In 1961, Kottman
was approached by M.R. Maxon, regional
branch sales manager for International
Harvester Corporation. Maxon wanted to
know if Ohio State was interested in spon-
soring a farm machinery show that would
include field demonstrations and educa-
tional displays.
Meetings between Kottman and Maxon
soon involved Ray Mattson of the Columbus
Tractor Club, Thomas Wonderling of OSU
Extension, and Robert P. Worral from the
College of Agriculture. In March 1962,
the group finalized a Memorandum of
Agreement among the Ohio Expositions
Commission, the Ohio State University
and the Ohio Agricultural Research and
Development Center (known as the Ohio
Agricultural Experiment Station at that
time). Later that year, Ohio State President
Novice G. Fawcett signed the memoran-
dum. Kottman signed for the College of
Agriculture and Rowland Bishop signed
for the Ohio Expositions Commission.
Farm Science Review was officially born.
The first show was held in 1963 at the
Ohio State University Don Scott Airport in
northwest Columbus, Ohio. Over 18,000
visitors paid 50 cents a ticket to view 116
commercial exhibits and be the first to
witness no-till corn demonstrations. For
the next decade, visitors were treated to
such programs as research on 20-inch and
30-inch corn rows, the introduction of big
farm equipment, solid-row soybean plant-
ing, conservation exhibits, fertilizer appli-
cation by airplane and research to fight
corn blight.
Advance sale tickets for the 2014 Farm
Science Review can be purchased at your
Ohio State University Extension office
at 1021 W. Lima St., Kenton, through
Monday. All advance sale tickets are $7
each; ages 5 and under are free. Gate tick-
ets will be $10. We also have information
at our office for the special needs vehicles.

Late corn maturation leads to frost damage questions
BY JAMES HOORMAN
Putnam County Extension Ag Educator
news@delphosherald.com
Dr. Peter Thomison OSU Extension and Dr. Bob Nielsen,
Purdue University in the CORN Newsletter (2014-29) wrote:
Persistent rains and excessively wet soils delayed corn
planting in some areas and cooler than normal temperatures
occurred in July. The late corn maturation has led to ques-
tions about the likelihood for frost damage. In Ohio, physi-
ological maturity (when kernels have obtained maximum dry
weight and black layer has formed) typically occurs about 65
days after silking. At physiological maturity (kernel moisture
approximately 30-35 percent), frosts have little or no effect on
the yield potential of the corn crop.
Nielsen has summarized research findings from Indiana
and Ohio that provide insight into both the calendar days and
thermal time (growing degree days, GDDs) typically required
for grain at various stages of development to achieve physi-
ological maturity (kernel black layer, R6). This research was
conducted at two locations in Indiana (west central and south-
east) and two locations in Ohio (northwest and southwest)
with three hybrids representing 97, 105 and 111 day relative
maturities planted in early May, late May and early June. See
the full study at www.agry.purdue.edu/ext/corn/news/timeless/
RStagePrediction.html.
The study indicated that corn planted in early June com-
pared to early May requires 200 to 300 fewer GDDs to
achieve physiological maturity. According to Nielsen, while
slightly different responses among the four locations of the
trial existed, there did not seem to be a consistent north/south
relationship.
If your corn is in the Dent stage (R5) as of Sept. 2, will it
be safe from frost? Corn planted in mid-June required about
217 GDDs to reach black layer from R5 and all regions of the
Ohio are likely to accumulate sufficient GDDs before the 50
percent frost date. About 75 percent of Putnam County corn
fields were dented as of Sept. 2.
However, if your corn is in the milk stage (R3) as of
Sept. 2, it might be a different story. The kernel development -
GDD accumulation relationship indicates that corn planted in
mid-June that is at R3 needs about 681 GDDs to reach black
layer. Only south central Ohio comes close to accumulating
that number of GDDs before the 50 percent frost date. Late
planted corn has the ability to adjust its maturity requirements
and most of this adjustment occurs during the late kernel
development stages. In previous growing seasons when GDD
accumulation was markedly less than normal, the corn crop
has usually achieved maturity before the first frost occurred.
(Thomison and Nielsen, 2014)
Dr. Andy Michel, OSU Entomologist reported, Over the
last two weeks, many growers have seen rapid increases in
soybean aphid populations. This is similar to the late outbreak
seen last year, when aphids infested during the R5 (begin-
ning to set seeds) to R6 (full seeds) growth stage transition in
soybeans. It takes a lot of soybean aphids to impact yield after
the R6 growth stage, above 1,000 aphids per plant. Even at
R5 and below, aphids do not hurt yield until ~500-600 aphids
per plant.
Then why the 250 aphids/plant threshold? The 250 thresh-
old allows for the time it takes for a spray application, such
that by the time a spray could occur, aphids are close to the
500-600 aphids per plant level. Given the late planting season
some growers had, here are some suggestions to follow if your
soybeans are at the R5-R6 transition and you have 250 aphids
per plant:
1) Check again in three to four days; are the aphids increas-
ing (remember the threshold is a RISING population of 250
per plant)? At many sites, natural enemies like lady beetles are
keeping aphids down.
2) At this point in the summer, you can expect aphids to
double in size in about a week. Do you think you will reach
R6 before aphids get to 500 per plant? If so, then it probably
wont pay to treat. Bottom line: At R6as long as you are
lower than ~1,000 aphids per plant, you should be fine.
3) Do you have to use ground equipment? Then expect a
two to three bushel loss on yield which might impact whether
or not you see a return on the application cost. Andy Michels,
OSU Entomologist.

NFL, Ray Rice get
more than a black eye
By JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
What to think about the Ray Rice and the National
Football League situation?
Its crazy to say the least and has become the talk of
the sports world.
You have differing sources claiming different things
the exact opposite, in many cases about what the
NFL and/or law enforcement did or did not do (did they
request the video and it was not forthcoming; did they
ignore the video that was sent to their doorstep by a law
enforcement official, according to one source that I saw
today; etc.) regarding the now-infamous elevator video of
him striking very effectively his then-fiance (who
apparently wasnt being exactly nice to him that night
but didnt deserve that from her much bigger, stronger
boyfriend!) and now-wife and knocking her unconscious.
I have watched different programs and listened to
different shows and everybody has their opinion an
opinion is like a body; everybody has one about
what we should take from this.
Unfortunately, the NFL has seemed to not only been
dealt one black eye but two and a bloody nose and
mouth for good measure regarding this incident for
being late to the meeting, so to speak, when it comes to
domestic violence.

2 more NFL players face
domestic violence issues
By STEVE REED
Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Carolina
Panthers Pro Bowl defensive end Greg
Hardy has been convicted on two counts
of domestic violence and is still playing.
Ray McDonald of the San Francisco
49ers also remains active while he is
being investigated for abuse allegations.
The Panthers and 49ers both say they
are following the NFLs lead, waiting
for the legal process to run its course.
Neither team has provided details of its
investigations.
The cases have similarities to that
of Ray Rice, who was released this
week by the Baltimore Ravens and sus-
pended indefinitely by the league after
an explicit video surfaced of him hitting
his then-fiancee.
A law enforcement official told The
Associated Press on condition anonym-
ity that he sent a copy of the video to the
league in April.
The NFL is under scrutiny for its
wait-and-see approach in domestic vio-
lence cases like Hardys.
Judy Harris Kluger, a former New
York City judge and now executive
director of Sanctuary for Families, is
anxious to see how the league handles
the two pending cases.
I think the test for the NFL will be
what they do with the other people who
are charged now, Kluger said. And
I dont imagine theres a videotape of
that. What else did the NFL think hap-
pened in that elevator? So yes, its a very
graphic depiction, and they took the
action they took now. But I think all of
us will be looking to see what they and
other organizations do going forward.
While McDonald has not been
charged, Hardy has already been con-
victed on two counts of domes-
tic violence. He has appealed
and a hearing is scheduled for
Nov. 17.
Hardy, one of the stalwarts
on the Panthers stout defense,
is making $13.1 million this
season as teams franchise
player. He had four tackles
and one sack in Carolinas
season-opening victory.
Though he has already
been found guilty, the league is stick-
ing by its policy to wait until the appeal
process has been heard before making
any decision on a possible suspension.
The Hardy matter is under review,
league spokesman Greg Aiello said.
The case has not been resolved by the
court.
San Jose police are still actively
investigating the Aug. 31 incident
involving McDonald and detectives will
turn over findings to the Santa Clara
District Attorneys office for review,
Sgt. Heather Randol, a police spokes-
woman, said Wednesday.
McDonald is scheduled to appear in
court on Sept. 15.
Though Hardy has appealed his con-
viction, the Panthers dont have to wait
for the NFL to take action. They have
the option to bench Hardy or release
him.
The Ravens did not take action, opt-
ing to wait for an NFL ruling,
though they now say they let
their fans down.
When asked Wednesday if
the Panthers made the right
decision allowing Hardy to
play, coach Ron Rivera replied,
We are going through the pro-
cess and while were in the
process were not going to
comment about the situation.
Its a very tragic situation
that is going on and were going from
there, Rivera said of the Rice case. I
have a tremendous amount of empathy
and respect for the people who are in
this situation. Its very difficult.
Rivera added Hardy did not practice
because he was given a personal day
Wednesday.
Hardy used the time to meet with
his attorney. Chris Fialko confirmed in
an email that he met with his client but
wouldnt elaborate on the specifics of
the meeting.
Rookie backs West, Crowell excel for Browns
By TOM WITHERS
Associated Press
BEREA Thrown into their first NFL game in
Pittsburgh, against the vaunted Steelers rookies Terrance
West and Isaiah Crowell didnt shown any nervousness or fear.
They performed like seasoned veterans for the Browns.
They need to do it again.
With starting running back Ben Tate out with a
sprained knee, West and Crowell will play Sunday
as the Browns (0-1) host New Orleans. After Tate
got hurt in the first half last week in Pittsburgh, West
rushed for 100 yards 91 in the second half and
Crowell scored two touchdowns as the Browns rallied
from a 24-point deficit before losing 30-27.
Browns coach Mike Pettine was pleased with how his
rookie runners fared against the Steelers.
It was encouraging, Pettine said before practice
Wednesday. But they need to be able to take the next step
and this is another challenge for them, to go against this type
of defense and its nothing that either one of those guys have
seen before. It will be a good test for them.
West, a third-round pick from Towson, and Crowell, an
undrafted free agent whose college career began at Georgia
before he transferred to Alabama State, passed their first test
with relative ease. They werent intimidated and Pettine cred-
ited running backs coach Wilbert Montgomery with having the
youngsters ready.
Pettine did not provide any details on Tates injury,
only confirming he will sit this week. However,
theres a chance Tate could be out for an extended
period, which would push West and Crowell up the
depth chart.
If their debuts were any indication, the Browns
might not miss Tate.
West, a 5-10, 225-pounder, averaged 6.3 yards on 16 car-
ries and became the first Cleveland back in 27 years to rush for
100 yards in his first pro game. Crowell, the SECs freshman
of the year before legal problems derailed his career, scored a
3-yard TD on his first carry and on a 15-yarder.
Bengals DT Still on roster, caring for daughter
By JOE KAY
Associated Press
CINCINNATI Defensive tackle Devon
Still got the early-morning call from an assis-
tant coach while he was still asleep. Could he
come to Paul Brown Stadium and discuss add-
ing him back onto the Bengals active roster?
They told me when I get a chance to make
it over to the stadium, Still recalled. I rolled
right out of bed and made it over about 5 min-
utes later before they changed their minds.
After four months of recovering from
injury and anguishing over his daugh-
ter, Still was all the way back on
Wednesday. The Bengals promoted
him from the practice squad to the
53-man roster, convinced that hes
ready to resume his role as part of their
defensive line rotation.
Its been a tough road back.
Stills 4-year-old daughter, Leah, was diag-
nosed with cancer and has been getting che-
motherapy treatments since June. He had trou-
ble focusing on football during training camp
because he was so concerned about his daughter.
Also, he pulled a hamstring in the second
preseason game. The Bengals put the second-
round pick from 2012 on the practice squad
to open the season, allowing him to keep his
medical coverage.
Stills story got national attention. When
the Bengals decided on Monday to donate
proceeds from his jersey sales to Childrens
Hospital in Cincinnati and pediatric cancer
care and research, the No. 75 jersey quickly
became the teams top seller.
Team spokesman Jeff Berding said more
than 1,000 jerseys at $100 apiece had
been ordered in less than 48 hours. The team
also posted a link on its website for those who
want to donate to the cause without
buying a jersey.
I was amazed, Still said on
Wednesday. I was shocked. Just the
fact that it sold more in 24 hours than
any Bengals jersey, it shows how
much the world of sports has an impact on
whats going on in this world.
Stills hamstring has healed. Its unclear
whether hell be active on Sunday when the
Bengals (1-0) have their home opener against
Atlanta (1-0).
Coach Marvin Lewis spent time with Still
on the teams day off Tuesday trying to gauge
whether he was ready mentally to resume his role.

REDS 4, CARDINALS 2
CINCINNATI Alfredo Simon shook
off a rough start but lasted seven innings and
drove in the go-ahead run with the second of
his two doubles as the Cincinnati Reds rallied
for a 4-2 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on
Wednesday night.
Ryan Ludwick hit a solo home run to help
the Reds win back-to-back games for the first
time since Aug. 27-28 against the Chicago
Cubs. The Central Division-leading Cardinals
hadnt sustained consecutive defeats since a
4-game losing streak from Aug. 26-30.
Simon (14-10) allowed five hits and two
runs with three walks and five strikeouts for
his second win in eight decisions over 11
starts since the All-Star break.
Sam LeCure and Ryan Dennick pitched
the eighth; Aroldis Chapman worked a perfect
ninth for his 32nd save.
Terry Lyons (0-4) took the loss after
Cardinals starter John Lackey was ejected in
the third inning for arguing balls and strikes.
With the game tied 2-2, Jay Bruce led off
the Reds fourth inning with a bloop single.
Simon, who entered with one career double,
went the opposite way into the right-field cor-
ner to drive in Bruce with the go-ahead run.
Brandon Phillips added a bases-loaded,
run-scoring single in the fifth to make it 4-2.
Simon retired the first two batters of the
game before the Cardinals scored two runs.
Matt Holliday walked and scored from first on
Matt Adams double. Oscar Taveras followed
with a run-scoring single.
Todd Frazier drove in Chris Heisey with a
single in the first,and Ludwick tied it for the Reds
in the second with his ninth homer and first since
Aug. 17 a 374-foot shot into the left-field seats.

College Football Schedule
NFL Glance
(Continued from page 6)
So much so that Roger Goodell is
facing criticism and calls for him to be
fired.
To me, if he can suspend a guy for
drugs and PEDs, then surely, under
the collective bargaining agreement, he
could have done something harsher to
Mr. Rice the first time as part of the
personal-conduct rules with his pleading
guilty to a misdemeanor, let alone now.
My big question with the release is
this: can Goodell and the NFL (dont
know what law enforcement claims
about it; if they saw and did nothing,
oooh baby, are they going to be crucified
and rightfully so!) be taken at their word
when he claims that no one in his office
ever saw the second video until Monday
(my opinion is I find that hard to believe
after todays announcement from the LE
official but it is my opinion); etc.
If Goodell didnt and someone did
and didnt tell the powers-that-be, heads
need to roll swiftly.
It seems that the NFL was SO worried
about everything else (PEDs, drugs), it
forgot a domestic-violence problem that
refuses to go away and it now seems it
is biting them in the neck.
There are so many issues at play: a
football culture that asks players to turn
it off when the horn sounds but they
must and also one where it seems the
rules dont apply to therm.
Is this where the phrase you cant
make this up comes to mind?
Or its like a soap opera but its real?
I cannot put myself in her spot as to
why she married him after this crime
(apparently, they both pled guilty to a
misdemeanor) and how she is still stand-
ing by him, even accepting part of the
blame many women on the programs
I have watched/heard have weighed in
on this and tell us its not easy to make
that step to leave, especially when a
threat may be involved.
I have seen/heard NO ONE actually
defend him for this action; we as men
are taught never to hit a woman, no
matter what, unless our very lives are in
jeopardy.
I just think that if I were that much
bigger and stronger, I could have found
a better way to handle it.
My guess is that Rice will remain
suspended the rest of 2014, apparently
since he wont appeal the decision and
has owned up to what he did. He will do
the requisite apology tour which
is OK undergo the counseling he
apparently needs and my opinion now
will at least be allowed to try and
latch on to a team in 2015 unless law
enforcement steps in and throws him in
the hoosegow.
We are a forgiving society.
Whether any owner wants to deal
with the media circus we know will sur-
round Rice is a different story.
My final question: think he will still
be married? She stuck will him so far.
I also think Goodell wont lose his
job but he will be a short leash and will
be much more pro-active in the future.

Sorry I forgot Jumbo Diaz as a
possible full-time replacement for
Jonathon Broxton next season in last
weeks column.
That was my evil twin that did so! I
was fired up!

After tough weekend, Big Ten teams pivot forward
By DAVE CAMPBELL
Associated Press
There are a couple of tough noncon-
ference tests on the Big Ten schedule
this week and rivalry games, too, but
this week is more about recovery.
The proud brand took a hit with
decisive defeats by Michigan State,
Ohio State and Michigan to high-pro-
file opponents; the Spartans have this
Saturday off to recuperate from a decent
performance at Oregon that got out of
hand at the end.
They pivoted nicely last year from an
early loss to Notre Dame, bouncing back
after a bye to win at Iowa and every
game after that, including the confer-
ence championship and the Rose Bowl.
We lost a football game but I dont
think we lost our team and theres a big
difference there, coach Mark Dantonio
said Tuesday. When you climb the
mountain, you get up high and the peaks
are very steep.
Wisconsin lost to LSU in its season
opener, fading late in the game. The
Badgers, albeit against an FCS team,
took out their frustration with a convinc-
ing victory over Western Illinois.
I didnt feel a hangover. I didnt
think they had a problem, coach Gary
Andersen said. It hurt em and
theyre not going to forget the loss
but I believed theyve moved on in a
professional manner.
The Buckeyes (Kent State) and
Wolverines (Miami of Ohio) host Mid-
American Conference teams that were
slated as 30-plus-point underdogs on
betting lines this week.
Ohio State stumbled against
Virginia Tech last weekend in
the programs first noncon-
ference loss at home to an
unranked team since 1982. Michigan
was shut out by Notre Dame, snapping
an NCAA-record streak of scoring in
365 straight games that began in 1984.
Both teams could use the apparent
break against a school outside of the power
65 teams, though the MAC is always extra
motivated against the Big Ten as Central
Michigan reiterated last Saturday with a
3-touchdown victory at Purdue.
The 20-7 collective record so far
is the worst nonconference record of
the five major leagues. There were
some shaky wins last week, too, with
Nebraska (McNeese State), Iowa (Ball
State) and Illinois (Western Kentucky)
barely getting by lower-tier foes with
late surges.
Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer said he
didnt notice the other scores around the
conference until the next morning when
he sat down to vote in the Top 25 poll.
Keep recruiting, Meyer replied,
when asked how the Big Ten could
avoid a repeat of this humbling week-
end. Theres no easy answer.
OK, all is not lost. There are plenty
of games left to re-establish
that national credibility, start-
ing Saturday: Iowa takes on
rival Iowa State, Purdue trav-
els to Indianapolis for a major upset
bid against Notre Dame, Illinois plays
at Washington, Maryland hosts West
Virginia and Minnesota goes to TCU.
Mid-September is too soon to write
any team or conference off, of course.
Michigan State, despite that early setback
against Notre Dame, likely would have
been picked for the 4-team playoff last
season if the new system was in place then.
The Big Tens postseason outlook
has already brightened since that rough
weekend. Penn State learned it could be
eligible for a bowl bid, with the lifting of
the most severe NCAA sanctions stem-
ming from the child sex abuse scandal
revealed three years ago.
Vitale breaks down NASCARs
version of Sweet 16
Associated Press
Dickie V has found a totally awesome PTPer in
NASCARs version of a Sweet 16 bracket.
ESPN college basketball broadcaster Dick Vitale has
picked Jimmie Johnson to cut down the nets or at least
hoist the Sprint Cup trophy and have his seventh shining
moment as NASCARs champion.
Vitale was in Boston on Wednesday to inject a dose
of March Madness into the Chase for the Sprint Cup
Championship. The 10-race playoff kicks off this week-
end at Chicagoland with 16 drivers in the field for the
first time.
Who else but Dickie V can break down a bracket,
baby! Vitale joined Chase driver Kasey Kahne and ESPN
bracketologist Joe Lunardi at a Chase kickoff event and
made his picks throughout the field.
Vitales Four Wheel Final Four was composed of
Johnson, Kahne, 2012 Cup champion Brad Keselowski
and Kevin Harvick.
You got to have the right combination, baby, Vitale
said. You got to have the momentum and a smart strate-
gy for each track and you need the team leader in the right
crew chief to call the NASCAR pick and rolls and get in
and out of those pit boxes like a quick basketball timeout,
making your adjustments to win it at the end. Kaseys my
diaper dandy driver to watch.
The revamped Chase format has eliminations after
every three races until the field is down to four drivers for
the Nov. 16 finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Kahne made the field after a win at Atlanta joined
Hendrick Motorsports teammates Johnson, Jeff Gordon
and Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the Chase.
KENSETHS SHOT: Matt Kenseth went into the final
10-race Chase last year as the points leader and already
with five victories. He then started the Chase winning
at Chicago and New Hampshire but eventually was the
season runner-up to Johnson.
In the new elimination-style playoff, Kenseth enters
the Chase 14th among the 16 drivers still in title consid-
eration, even without winning a race. And his champion-
ship chances are just as good as they were at this time a
year ago.
Kenseth admitted that he hadnt studied the new for-
mat very closely, or paid too close attention to points.
If Kenseth wins at Chicago or New Hampshire again,
or Dover after that, he would automatically be among
12 drivers still in contention for the next 3-race round.
Four drivers will vie for the title in the Homestead season
finale.
GUEST SPEAKER: Hendrick Motorsports prepared
for the start of the Chase by bringing in guest speaker
Herm Edwards in a kickoff event for all employees.
Edwards, a current ESPN analyst and former NFL
coach and player, delivered a speech that 6-time NASCAR
champion Johnson found inspiring. Johnson, the defend-
ing champion, is seeking a record-tying seventh title; only
Hall-of-Famers Richard Petty and the late Dale Earnhardt
won seven championships.
DOUBLE DUTY: Aric Almirola will pull double duty
this weekend as he prepares for his first appearance in
the Chase.
Almirola will run both the Nationwide and Sprint Cup
races at Chicagoland Speedway. The Nationwide race
will be his first Nationwide start since last season but the
goal is to get him extra seat time in advance of Sundays
Chase opener.
Richard Petty Motorsports will also run Almirola
in the Nationwide race at Dover. The decision to enter
Almirola was made to help him get strong finishes and
advance through the first round of Chase eliminations into
the round of 12.
Almirola, who has two previous Cup starts at Chicago,
was a career-best 13th last year.

Dear Abby
Husband holed up in man cave
leaves his wife out in the cold
DEAR ABBY: I have been
married for 13 years, and Im
beginning to wonder if my
husband still wants to be with
me. He gets home before I do
and stays in his room watching
TV and piddling around on the
computer. He never comes out
to say hello when I get home; I
go in there and greet him. He
comes out when I have dinner
fixed and then returns to his
room.
I understand the man cave
thing. Everyone needs their time
and space, but this has become
an everyday routine. I have tried
to tell him I feel ignored. The
next night hell come into the
living room and watch TV with
me, but I feel hes doing it only
because he feels he should, not
because he wants to.
Is this my clue that he
doesnt care about sharing
time with me anymore? I dont
want to beg for his attention.
-- LONELY IN NORTH
CAROLINA
DEAR LONELY: It
appears that way. You refer
to the room in which your
husband watches TV and uses
his computer as his room and
not a den. Does he also sleep
in there? If thats the case,
and the only time you spend
together is at the dinner table,
your marriage is in suspended
animation.
If what hes watching on
television or his computer
has become a substitute for
having a relationship with you
-- and thats what it appears
-- you need to find out what
happened to the intimacy
you once shared. What you
have described is a platonic
roommate relationship and not
a healthy marriage.
If you want to change the
dynamics, you are going to
have to have some serious
conversations with your
husband about what your needs
are, and also his. Start now.
DEAR ABBY: My parents
immigrated here from a foreign
country 20 years ago. Although
they speak some basic English,
they have yet to become even
remotely fluent in the language.
As a result, they are always
asking me to do everything for
them -- pay their bills, file their
taxes, go with them to doctors
appointments, translate for
delivery people and take my
mom on errands because she
doesnt drive. I am irritated.
When will they learn
English? I am the CHILD, not
the parent. I feel like I have been
a mini-adult for many years
as their personal chauffeur,
secretary, interpreter, etc. I
dont mind doing occasional
favors for them, but enough is
enough. What should I do? --
BEYOND FRUSTRATED IN
CHICAGO
DEAR BEYOND
FRUSTRATED: I think you
should take into consideration
that learning a new language
is much easier for children
than it is for adults. You were
immersed in English when
you went to school and were
exposed to it not only in the
classroom but also on the
playground. Your parents
werent so lucky. They should
have enrolled in an ESL
class right away, but instead
apparently interacted only
with people who spoke their
language.
However, its never too late
to make an effort, so encourage
them to start NOW. A way to
persuade them would be to
ask them what they would do
if, heaven forbid, something
happened to you. Some people
who have picked up English
did so by watching English
language television instead of
whats aired in their own.
You are not alone in having
this problem. The children of
every ethnic group that has
come to the United States has
experienced what you are.

as Jeanne Phillips, and was

HERALD
Thursday, September 11, 2014
Evaluate your past, present
and plans for the future. Once
you have considered everything,
make the necessary adjustments
that will help you accomplish
your goals. You are the only
one who can bring about these
changes, so take charge and
make things happen.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.
22) -- Dont lend or borrow
anything today. Go over your
banking records to make sure
you havent overestimated
your balance. You should curb
unnecessary expenditures in
order to get back on track.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
-- Make the most of your day,
regardless of what others say.
Take control and show everyone
what you are capable of doing.
Your intuition will lead you in
the right direction.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) -- You will not get far by
being a spectator. Get involved
in events that will help shape
your future and change your
life. Remember to leave some
time for romance.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
23-Dec. 21) -- Expect the
unexpected, and turn a negative
into a positive. Dont stop or let
anyone sidetrack you. Its up to
you to stay on track if you plan
to reach your goal.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19) -- Dont let your
emotions goad you into making
a costly mistake. You know
what has to be done in order
to get ahead. When something
doesnt run smoothly, assess
matters and reset your course.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) -- Dont let past mistakes
hold you back. Chalk them up to
experience and get on with your
life. Incorporate entertainment
into your schedule to boost your
spirits.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
-- Tie up loose ends. Finish
half-completed projects so you

Fritz said downtown Delphos was trans-
formed back in time. Everybody made their
own costumes.
Shenks ordered bolts and bolts of Gingham
to fill the orders of customers wanting material
to make their costumes,she said. They made
sun bonnets and whole families dressed up for
the big celebration.
Fritz said 1976 marked a change in the
culture perhaps the advent of television
changed the landscape and after 25 years,
the attendance was low and the entertainment
value was not there, not as it was in 1951.
Everybody in town got involved in the pro-
duction which brought back the re-enactment
of the pioneers and settlers of the time, she
said. Although the crowds were not large,
they were very enthusiastic.
She said Donnie Sargeant lent his mules and
wagon to the production so they had a primi-
tive feel to the show honoring the settlers.
We re-enacted the first spring in 1844
when pioneers made their way to Delphos
down Jennings Creek from Fort Jennings, she
recalled.
The Eagles Band was always a staple dur-
ing the Canal Days Parade, Fritz said. They
rode on a float and played John Philip Sousa
music, which was primarily American military

St. Ritas gives update
on Enterovirus
INFORMATION
SUBMITTED
LIMA The Ohio
Department of Health is
assessing an increase in
severe respiratory illness
among children to see if it
may be due to infection by
Enterovirus D68.
St. Ritas Emergency
Department has not seen an
increase in childhood respira-
tory illness cases, but some
local family practices have.
While he cannot confirm it
is connected to the enterovi-
rus, Brendon Hovest, Certified
Nurse Practitioner at Klass
Family Medicine in St. Ritas
Putnam County Medical Park,
suspects it may be.
In the last couple weeks,
weve had an uptick of kids
with respiratory infections.
More wheezing kids than we
typically see, Hovest said.
But he added that usually
happens when schools start
back up this time of year.
Whether it is enterovirus
or another virus, the treatment
and precautions are the same.
To treat a virus, give the
child plenty of fluids, Tylenol
for fever, and consider using a
humidifier, Hovest said.
If they notice wheezing,
harsh coughing or any sings
of shortness of breath, parents
should seek medical atten-
tion, he said.
The usual safety precau-
tions apply: proper hand
washing, avoiding other sick
people and covering your
mouth when you cough or
sneeze.

Obama to launch airstrikes
in Syria for first time
WASHINGTON (AP) In a major
reversal, President Barack Obama
ordered the United States into a broad
military campaign Wednesday night
to degrade and ultimately destroy
Islamic State militants in two volatile
Middle East nations authorizing air-
strikes inside Syria for the first time as
well as an expansion of strikes in Iraq.
In an address to the nation, Obama
also announced he was dispatching
nearly 500 more U.S. troops to Iraq to
assist that countrys besieged security
forces. And he called on Congress to
authorize a program to train and arm
rebels in Syria who are fighting both the
Islamic State group and Syrian President
Bashar Assad.
Saudi Arabia, a crucial U.S. ally in
the Middle East, offered to host the
training missions, part of Obamas effort
to persuade other nations to join with the
U.S. in confronting the militants.
This is not our fight alone, Obama
declared. American power can make a
decisive difference, but we cannot do for
Iraqis what they must do for themselves,
nor can we take the place of Arab part-
ners in securing their region.
Our objective is clear: We will
degrade and ultimately destroy ISIL
through a comprehensive and sustained
counterterrorism strategy.
The president adamantly ruled out
the prospect of putting American troops
in combat roles on the ground in Iraq
or Syria.
Even so, Obamas plans amount to
a striking shift for a president who rose
to political prominence in part because
of his early opposition to the Iraq war.
While in office, hes steadfastly sought
to wind down American military cam-
paigns in the Middle East and avoid new
wars particularly in Syria, a country
where the chaos of a lengthy civil war
has given the Islamic State space to
thrive and move freely across the border
with Iraq.
Speaking on the eve of the anni-
versary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks,
Obamas plans also amounted to an
admission that years of American-led
war in the Middle East have not quelled
the terror threat emanating from the
region.
While administration officials have
said they are not aware of a credible
threat of a potential attack by the militants
in the U.S., they say the Islamic State
group poses risks to Americans and inter-
ests in the region. Officials are also con-
cerned about the prospect that Westerners,
including Americans, who have joined the
militant group could return to their home
countries to launch attacks.
In recent weeks, the militants have
released videos depicting the beheading
of two American journalists in Syria.
The violent images appear to have had
an impact on a formerly war-weary
public, with multiple polls in recent days
showing that the majority of Americans
support airstrikes in both Iraq and Syria.
The U.S. began launching limited
airstrikes against Islamic State targets
in Iraq earlier this summer. But officials
said Obama was waiting for Iraq to
form a new government a step it took
Tuesday before broadening the effort.
Officials said strikes in Iraq would
now be wide-ranging and extend into
Syria. Obama plans to proceed with
those actions without seeking new
authorization from Congress.
Instead, officials said Obama will
act under a use of force authorization
Congress passed in the days after 9/11
to give President George W. Bush the
ability to go after those who perpetrated
the terror attacks. Obama has previ-
ously called for that authorization to be
repealed, he has also used the measure
as a rationale to take strikes against ter-
ror targets in Yemen and Somalia.
Officials compared the new U.S. mis-
sion in Iraq and Syria to the actions in
Yemen and Somalia, campaigns that
have gone on for years.
Scientists say the ozone layer is recovering
WASHINGTON (AP) Earths
protective ozone layer is beginning to
recover, largely because of the phase-
out since the 1980s of certain chemi-
cals used in refrigerants and aerosol
cans, a U.N. scientific panel reported
Wednesday in a rare piece of good news
about the health of the planet.
Scientists said the development dem-
onstrates that when the world comes
together, it can counteract a brewing
ecological crisis.
For the first time in 35 years, scien-
tists were able to confirm a statistically
significant and sustained increase in
stratospheric ozone, which shields the
planet from solar radiation that causes
skin cancer, crop damage and other
problems.
From 2000 to 2013, ozone levels
climbed 4 percent in the key mid-north-
ern latitudes at about 30 miles up, said
NASA scientist Paul A. Newman. He
co-chaired the every-four-years ozone
assessment by 300 scientists, released at
the United Nations.
Its a victory for diplomacy and for
science and for the fact that we were
able to work together, said chemist
Mario Molina. In 1974, Molina and F.
Sherwood Rowland wrote a scientific
study forecasting the ozone depletion
problem. They won the 1995 Nobel
Prize in chemistry for their work.
The ozone layer had been thinning
since the late 1970s. Man-made chlo-
rofluorocarbons, called CFCs, released
chlorine and bromine, which destroyed
ozone molecules high in the air. After
scientists raised the alarm, countries
around the world agreed to a treaty in
1987 that phased out CFCs. Levels of
those chemicals between 30 and 50
miles up are decreasing.
The United Nations calculated in an
earlier report that without the pact, by
2030 there would have been an extra 2
million skin cancer cases a year around
the world.
Paradoxically, heat-trapping green-
house gases considered the major
cause of global warming are also
helping to rebuild the ozone layer,
Newman said. The report said rising
levels of carbon dioxide and other gases
cool the upper stratosphere, and the
cooler air increases the amount of ozone.
And in another worrisome trend, the
chemicals that replaced CFCs contribute
to global warming and are on the rise,
said MIT atmospheric scientist Susan
Solomon. At the moment, they dont
make much of a dent, but they are
expected to increase dramatically by
2050 and make a big contribution to
global warming.
Tea party, lesson learned, plays nice this time
WASHINGTON (AP) The tea party may have learned its lesson.
As Congress finishes work on a must-pass spending bill set for votes next week, the most
conservative lawmakers on Capitol Hill are eager to send a message on immigration, and stand
firm against a government lending bank.
But a year after they forced a 16-day partial government shutdown over President Barack
Obamas health care law, few seem to have the stomach to push their demands that far again.
No question we learned that with the aid of the news media the Democrats were able to pin
the blame on us for last years shutdown, said conservative Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Ala.
This time around, Brooks said, We need to pass whatever funding necessary to prevent a
government shutdown, first and foremost.
Rep. John Fleming, R-La., another tea party-aligned lawmaker, said: I dont think any of us
want to have a big battle over the spending bill to fund government operations into December.
Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy announced Wednesday that votes on the measure would
be put off to next week to give lawmakers time to weigh the Obama administrations request to
include authorization to aid Syrian rebels fighting Islamic State terrorists.
Meanwhile some conservative lawmakers said they are leaning toward supporting the legis-
lation crafted by GOP leaders, even though outside groups on the right are pushing for a no
vote because it includes an extension of the Export-Import Bank. Many conservatives say the
bank that lends to U.S. exporters amounts to corporate welfare.
At the same time, conservatives are signaling they wont use the bill to make a stand over
immigration.
Conservatives led by Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, held a press conference this week demanding
that Senate Democrats allow a vote on a House-passed measure to block Obama from using
executive action to set immigration policy. But Cruz, who played a lead role in last years shut
down, stopped short of threatening to oppose the spending bill if it doesnt include such a mea-
sure. And he disclosed no plans to push House members to stand firm against the legislation if
it doesnt deal with immigration, like he goaded them to do last year over health care.
NYC police: Terror threat more complex than ever
NEW YORK (AP) Air strikes in Iraq, ongoing unrest
in Syria and the beheadings of two American journalists are
casting a long shadow over the 13th anniversary of the Sept.
11 attacks.
While there is no specific threat against New York ahead of
todays commemoration, the rising power of disparate militant
groups around the world presents the most complex terrorism
danger since the twin towers were destroyed, New York intel-
ligence officials said this week.
It is layer upon layer upon layer not all coming from
the same place or ideology, said John Miller, the New York
Police Departments deputy commissioner of intelligence and
counterterrorism.
That differs from five years ago, when the risk was chiefly
from al-Qaida, Miller said. Now, he said, the threat is also
coming from the well-funded, highly-sophisticated mass
marketing of terrorism affiliate groups, foreign fighters,
uprising militants and the idea of al-Qaida-ism.
When you look at the level of sophistication, the amount
of slickness applied to their video production, the amount of
thought that goes into creating a narrative, he said, Theyre
doing the same kind of thing as weve seen in commercial
publishing or in the ad industry.
New York remains the top target, and that makes preparing
for big events, including the U.S. Open tennis tournament, the
United Nations General Assembly and the Sept. 11 commem-
oration, that much more critical, officials said. Plus, President
Barack Obama plans this week to outline an expanded U.S.
campaign against militants in Iraq and Syria following the
beheadings of American journalists James Foley and Steven
Sotloff.
The White House said in a statement that Obama met
Tuesday with senior administration officials to review security
threats and preparedness ahead of the 9/11 anniversary.
New York Police Commissioner William Bratton said the
department is prepared.
We will, as always, ramp up intelligence gathering and
visibility, Bratton said. That means thousands of officers in
specialized teams, bomb-sniffing dogs who can detect not
only the scent of a bomb but the vapors of a moving target,
undercover officers and teams of police using radioactive
detection devices and other high-tech tools.
Now open, 9/11 museum
sees influx of new artifacts
NEW YORK (AP) After seeing the new National
September 11 Memorial Museum, one victims widow decided
to donate one of her husbands FDNY paramedic shirts, karate
uniforms and beloved baseball jersey.
A retired police detective gave the sole-scorched boots she wore
while working amid the smoking wreckage of the twin towers.
A survivor contributed her World Trade Center worker ID,
dust-coated clothes and the high-heeled shoes she shed going
down 87 flights of stairs to safety, items shed kept boxed in a
basement for 13 years.
I didnt think that this would be anything they would
want, said JoAnne JoJo Capestro, the finance worker who
gave her clothing. But once I went in there, and I saw, I said,
My clothes belong there. I wanted to share it with people.
I wanted them to see.
Since the museums May opening, victims families, sur-
vivors, rescue workers and others have come forward to add
about 135 new gifts to its collection, chief curator Jan Seidler
Ramirez said.
Relatives have brought new photos or recorded new
remembrances to profiles of the nearly 3,000 victims. Others
have added to the wallets, helmets, and other personal effects
in a collection that looks at the terrorist attacks through the lens
of individual lives.
A Federal Aviation Administration workers hard hat now
speaks to his agencys contributions to the recovery effort.
Commemorative golf balls from the delayed September 2001
Ryder Cup golf tournament help demonstrate how the world
stood still after the attacks.
Two compelling reminders of the long manhunt that fol-
lowed 9/11 went on display Sunday: a Navy SEALs uniform
shirt from the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, and a CIA
officers special coin commemorating the operation.
With the National Sept. 11 Memorial Museum now visibly
occupying, in real space, leadership of this important national
story, when people have items, they want that to be a part of
that, President Joe Daniels said.
The museum anticipated and welcomes growth in its col-
lection of over 39,000 objects, photos and oral histories, and
officials see the new donations as a vote of confidence. The
institution trod a difficult path to opening, facing delays and
controversy. Some victims relatives still bitterly oppose it as
more tourist attraction than tribute.
Some new donors to the Sept. 11 museum hadnt real-
ized everyday possessions could be museum exhibits. Others
werent ready earlier to part with the artifacts or wanted
to view the museum before entrusting it with cherished, if
wrenching, mementoes.
Neil Matthew Dollards relatives talked for years about
donating the few possessions authorities found after the bond
broker died at the trade center. But the family held off until
visiting the museum.
We were waiting to see what the museum looked like and
how it handled peoples possessions, said one of his sisters,
Megan Fajardo. Finding the displays tasteful, the relatives
decided to contribute the items: his wallet, cards he carried,
and pocket change.
When were gone, it needs to be somewhere where it can be
seen, where it will be safe, Fajardo said. Thats where he died.
After getting home from the debris pile at ground zero after
9/11, Detective Carol Orazem peeled off her battered, hosed-
down boots and eventually put them in the attic. There they
stayed until she saw another first responders awe at spotting
his own helmet on display in the museum.
