Forecasters say
Ohio wind chills
pose a danger
COLUMBUS (AP) —
Winds in Ohio are combining
with temperatures in the single
digits or lower to create what
the National Weather Service
describes as dangerously cold
conditions.
Stinging wind-chill read-
ings at 6 a.m. today included
9 below zero in Cleveland, 8
below in Columbus and 16
below in Dayton.
The weather service says
the wind and cold pose a dan-
ger for exposed skin, so those
venturing outdoors should use
common sense and bundle up.
Scores of school districts
throughout the state have
delayed their today start
times.
Forecasters say tempera-
tures will be slow to warm
up, so low wind chills could
remain a concern until late
morning.
Man charged in
homeless attack
failed to show
CINCINNATI (AP) —
A man charged with beat-
ing a homeless man under a
Cincinnati bridge was arrested
after he failed to show up for a
hearing in the case.
Authorities arrested
25-year-old Michael Hesson
on Tuesday in Hamilton.
Hesson is charged with felo-
nious assault in the beating last
year. He also was indicted last
month on a weapons charge
after his girlfriend was fatally
shot at his suburban Cincinnati
apartment.
Riley Feller was indicted
on reckless homicide and
weapons charges in the shoot-
ing. Prosecutors say Feller
was showing a gun to Janice
Svajda when it went off and
killed her.
Feller and Hesson were
charged with two other men
in the homeless beating. Feller
pleaded no contest to felonious
assault in that case.
Hesson’s attorney did
not immediately return calls
Wednesday.
ODOT warns of snow remaining on highways
LIMA — Ohio Department
of Transportation District One
is issuing what has become an
annual warning to residents liv-
ing on state highways: Don’t
leave snow plowed from private
driveways on the highways.
“Not only is it not advisable
to leave snow from your drive-
way in the middle of the high-
way, it is against the law,” said
Deputy Director Kirk Slusher.
Ohio Revised Code 4511.74
prohibits the placement of inju-
rious material on a highway
except that which is placed on
the roadway by a proper author-
ity, such as the salt or grit which
ODOT uses to treat icy roads.
Placing anything on the
highway could be dangerous to

Award. Skylar will receive her
award during the Chairman’s
Dinner and Gala at the 2011
National Grocers Association
(N.G.A.) Annual Convention
and Supermarket Synergy
Showcase in Las Vegas. The
WGA Woman of the Year
award recognizes an industry
woman whose leadership has
contributed to the success of her
company. This woman must
be a member of the National
Grocers Association and other
industry organizations whose
participation and involvement
contributes/contributed to the
overall well-being of the gro-
cery industry; and must be a
community-focused citizen
committed to serving the needs
of her neighbors, associates and
customers through involvement
in community and civic affairs.
Stephanie Skylar is President
and CEO of Chief Super
Market, Inc., a family-owned,
regional supermarket chain that
operates twelve stores under
the Chief and Rays banners in
nine communities in northwest
and west central Ohio.
With more than twenty
years of executive experience,
Stephanie oversees more than
1,000 associates as President
and CEO. Under her guid-
ance, Chief and Rays food
retail stores continue to inno-
vate and have shown increased
sales and profits, even in
today’s challenging business
environment. Stephanie’s com-
mitment and dedication to the
staff is exemplified by Chief
University, a comprehensive,
hands-on associate training
program. Launched in 2009,
the University is a vehicle to
capture employee’s talents
throughout the Chief organiza-
tion by teaching them the skills
they need to tackle the new jobs
that local retailing will demand.
Additionally, Stephanie helped
to address the critical need for
hunger relief in western Ohio.
The company established
the “Good Neighbor” program
by coordinating participa-
tion from vendors, suppliers,
motorists in that they may hit
these obstructions and lose con-
trol of their vehicle. “If it is found
that snow displaced from a pri-
vate drive onto a highway con-
tributes to an accident, the indi-
vidual who placed it there could
be found liable,” said Slusher.
According to the Ohio State
Highway Patrol, the offense is
considered a first degree mis-
demeanor and carries a maxi-
mum penalty of six months in
jail and a $1,000 fine.
The department advises

in Northwest and West Central
Ohio. Chief and its associates
focus on being a good neigh-

a commitment to the communi-
ties where stores are located.
N.G.A. is the national trade
association representing the
retail and wholesale grocers that
comprise the independent sector
of the food distribution indus-
try. An independent retailer is
a privately owned or controlled
food retail company operat-
ing a variety of formats. Most
independent operators are ser-
viced by wholesale distributors,
while others may be partially
or fully self-distributing. Some
are publicly traded but with
controlling shares held by the
family and others are employee
owned. Independents are the
true “entrepreneurs” of the gro-
cery industry and dedicated to
their customers, associates, and
communities. N.G.A. members
include retail and wholesale
grocers, state grocers associa-
tions, as well as manufacturers

driveway, said Slusher.
In addition, the department
recommends individuals clear
snow away from their mail-
boxes. “Moving snow to the far
side of the mailbox may reduce
the likelihood that snow thrown
from a passing plow will cause
damage,” said Slusher.
The department also reminds
parents to keep their children
from playing in piles of snow
which are close to the road.

Dear EarthTalk: The
U.S. Environmental

40th anniversary in 2010.
How effective has the EPA
been and what are its big-

Bill A., Seattle, WA
By most accounts the U.S.
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), which turned
40 in December 2009, has
been very effective. The first
dedicated national environ-
mental agency of its kind,
the EPA has been instrumen-
tal in setting policy priorities
and writing and enforcing a
wide range of laws that have
literally changed the face of
the Earth for the better. The
EPA’s existence and effec-
tiveness has also inspired
scores of other countries to
create their own environmen-
tal agencies along the same
lines.

House GOP on the hunt
for deeper budget cuts
By ANDREW TAYLOR
and DAVID ESPO
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — backed conservatives demand
Pushed by rebellious conser-
vatives, House Republican
leaders scrambled Wednesday
night to find deeper cuts, offi-
cials said, hours after laying
out a plan to save $35 bil-
lion by eliminating at least 60
federal programs and cutting
back hundreds of others.
Republican officials said
one possibility was to add
across-the-board cuts to sup-
plement the targeted reduc-
tions spelled out earlier in the
day at a closed-door meeting
for the rank and file.
The original plan target-
ing education and the envi-
ronment, food safety and law

Obama.
It calls for eliminating

CLARENCE, N.Y. — A
married congressman from
New York accused of send-
ing a shirtless photo of him-
self to a woman has abruptly
resigned, and dismayed con-
stituents said his admission to
“profound mistakes” seemed
out of character for the atten-
tive and committed lawmaker
they’d come to know.
Rep. Christopher Lee, a
two-term Republican with a
young son, had e-mailed the
photo to a woman he met on
Craigslist, the gossip website
Gawker reported Wednesday.
“People in power do
the darndest things,”
Clarence Center resident
Bob Dickinson, 65, said as
he cleaned up following a
Town Board meeting in Lee’s
hometown Wednesday night.
“I don’t know if he was trying

statement that his resignation
was effective immediately.
The statement offered no

Hearing focuses on business complaints
By LARRY MARGASAK
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — On
issues ranging from the air
we breathe to the noise we
make, the business commu-
nity is telling the government
to get out of its hair. And the
Republicans, looking toward
the 2012 elections, are listen-
ing.
The House’s princi-
pal investigative panel, the
Oversight and Government
Reform Committee, is tak-
ing its turn today in a hear-
ing designed to give a voice
to business complaints about
government regulations.
The entire House, mean-
while, could vote this week
to direct 10 committees to
compile an inventory of
rules that adversely affect
jobs. The resolution has no
practical effect because com-
mittee chairmen already are
under instructions from the
Republican leadership to get
rid of or modify rules that
businesses don’t like.
But there may be a politi-
cal bounce, and the GOP has
scheduled more than nine
hours of debate so its mem-
bers can get dozens of anti-
regulation sound bites.
today’s hearing, to be
chaired by Rep. Darrell Issa
of California, will include
federal government. Yet it sets
the stage for weeks of political
combat as Democrats seek to
blunt the cuts while tea party-
more of them.
Republicans are “keeping
our pledge to the American
people that we will cut spend-
ing,” House Speaker John
Boehner, R-Ohio, said after
details were outlined for the
rank and file at a closed-door
meeting.
Preliminary details of the
plan emerged just before
Obama hosted Boehner and
his two top lieutenants at a
White House lunch.
Reacting mildly to the rec-
ommended cuts, White House
press secretary Robert Gibbs
cited a “broad agreement that
we have to change the way
Washington works, particu-
larly as it relates to spend-
ing.”
At the same time, Gibbs
said, “We have to do so in a
way that protects the impor-
tant investments so that we
can win the future,” signaling
the president will fight to pro-
tect his own priorities.
House Democratic leader
Nancy Pelosi was more point-
ed. “The Republican plan will
cost jobs, undercut American
innovation and clean energy,
jeopardize our safety by tak-
ing cops off the street and
threaten investments in
rebuilding America — at a
time when our economy can
least afford it,” she said in a
Connection Flight 3407 onto
a house.
Lee has been a visible sup-
porter of victims’ families and
the aviation safety reforms
they’ve sought since the Feb.
12, 2009, crash. He appeared
with several crash victims’
families at a news conference
in Washington on Tuesday.
But the following day he
posted the surprise announce-
ment on his congressional web-
site: “I regret the harm that my
actions have caused my family,
my staff and my constituents. I
deeply and sincerely apologize
to them all. I have made pro-
found mistakes and I promise
to work as hard as I can to seek
their forgiveness.”
Lee, a businessman who
won his seat in 2008, culti-
vated a family-values voting
record in the House, earn-
ing an 88 percent approval
rating from the American
Conservative Union for his
2010 votes. He voted in favor
of a ban on federal fund-
ing of abortion in the health
care overhaul, in line with
the group’s position on the
proposed ban, which was
defeated in the House. He
also voted against the repeal
of the military’s Don’t Ask,
Don’t Tell policy prohibiting
service by openly gay men
and women.
Lee said the challenges
the National Association of
Manufacturers, the Black
Chamber of Commerce, the
Western Growers Association
and owners of small busi-
nesses, among others.
A Democratic staff memo
complained that Issa’s let-
ters to businesses, seeking
comments on harmful rules,
“did not request informa-
tion about the benefits to the
overall economy or to the
health, safety and welfare of
American workers and fami-
lies. The letters were sent
primarily to industry groups
and others seeking to repeal
regulations, while exclud-
ing industry, consumer and
other groups that support the
protections these regulations
were designed to safeguard.”
Issa has received some 200
suggestions from businesses,
many of them longtime com-
plaints about the Environmental
Protection Agency’s pollu-
tion control efforts and the
Occupational Safety and
Health Administration’s
workplace rules.
Recent additions to the
business hit list include com-
plaints about a law passed
last year to overhaul the
country’s financial regula-
tions. Businesses don’t like

But some conservatives
told the Republican leader-
ship at the closed-door meet-
ing that they want deeper cuts
to fulfill campaign pledges
to reduce spending to levels
in effect in 2008. Officials
described the effort on condi-
tion of anonymity to discuss
the private discussions.
Republicans withheld
many of the details of their
proposal, which officials said
was undergoing final changes
before legislation is filed.
Still unclear, officials said, is
whether the draft measure will
try to ban the Environmental
Protection Agency from regulat-
ing greenhouse gases under the
Clean Air Act. Alternatively, a
prohibition to that effect could
be added when the bill reaches
the House floor next week.
Other GOP priorities,
including a ban on using
federal money to implement
the new health care law, are
expected to be added, as well.
According to material pre-
sented by Rep. Harold Rogers,
R-Ky., chairman of the House
Appropriations Committee,
the cuts would stretch across
a vast range of domestic
programs, from the EPA to

faced in western New York,
where he serves the 26th
Congressional District, and
across the country are “too
serious for me to allow this
distraction to continue, so I
am announcing that I have
resigned my seat in Congress
effective immediately.”
When Mike Metzger saw
the picture Lee is accused of
sending, he figured someone
was “playing games” at Lee’s
expense. The photo shows
Lee apparently taking a cell
phone picture in a mirror
while flexing his right bicep
in front of him.
“Chris Lee is too smart of
a man to do something like
this,” Metzger, a Clarence
civil engineer, said before
hearing of the resignation.
“Unfortunately, (resigning)
so quickly seems to imply
guilt.”
Lee’s resignation comes
almost a year after Democrat
Eric Massa resigned his seat
in western New York’s 29th
Congressional District amid
an investigation into whether
he sexually harassed male
staffers. Massa gave contra-
dictory explanations for his
behavior, acknowledging he
groped and tickled a staffer in
a nonsexual way and wrestled
with others at his 50th birth-
day party, but then denying
any groping occurred.
Exchange Commission pro-
posal to require businesses to
identify their “conflict miner-
als” — those mined in condi-
tions of armed conflict and
human rights abuses.
A report by Issa’s staff
acknowledged that rules such
as the conflict minerals pro-
posal have a good purpose
— in this case, preventing
atrocities — but also have a
negative effect on business
costs and time. The pro-
posal would require a com-
pany to disclose to the SEC
whether its conflict minerals
originated in the Democratic
Republic of the Congo or an
adjoining country.
The most complaints were
against the EPA. Issa’s staff
report said the agency “has
issued a host of new regula-
tions affecting coal-generated
power, directing these plants
to purchase costly new equip-
ment.”
The report mentioned EPA
regulation of greenhouse
gases as a pollutant, as well
as increased scrutiny of other
emissions.
“EPA is also proposing a
cascade of new standards for
already regulated emissions
such as nitrogen oxides, sul-
fur dioxide and ozone, some
of which had their standards
updated as recently as 2008,”
the report said.

sive criminal history dating back

cle accident that took place on
May 9th, 2010, the driver was
killed in the accident and Mr.
Gomez was severely injured.
Investigating Troopers of the
Ohio State Highway Patrol found
a illegal controlled substance on
the person of Mr. Gomez as
he was taken from the vehicle.
Gomez filed a motion to have
the imposition of the prison term
deferred pending the outcome
of an appeal that is being filed
on his behalf concerning a sup-
pression hearing that was held
earlier in the case. The motion
was approved by the court with
the original bond continued in
the case.
Feds: Mobster
fugitive captured
in rural Idaho
By JESSIE L. BONNER
Associated Press
MARSING, Idaho — To
his neighbors, he was Jay
Shaw, the guy with the vague-
ly New York accent. He was
known for fixing computers,
buying everything with cash,
raising cows and knowing
how to handle a gun.
To the FBI, he was a New
England mobster who van-
ished in 1994 after a botched
attempt to whack his boss.
On Wednesday, the
42-year-old dark-haired man,
dressed in a yellow jumpsuit
and his hands cuffed behind
his back, strolled into a court-
room in Boise, sat down at a
table and spoke calmly to a
judge.
“My name is Enrico M.
Ponzo,” he said.
After the judge read a long
list of charges against him,
Ponzo replied: “Not guilty,
your honor.”
Ponzo, 42, appeared
relaxed during his 40-minute
court appearance, at times
smiling at a handful of friends
nearby and exchanging laughs
with his attorney. He told the
judge he is originally from
Sue wanted me to go out
and shovel the snow off of
her car so she could get to
work. It seems awfully old-
fashioned in this high-tech
age that either of us should
actually have to leave the
house -- her to go to work, me
to shovel snow. Isn’t there an
app for that? I guess not.
Millions of people with
smart phones have learned
this winter that an app exists
that will tell them that their
flights were cancelled, but
nothing that will magically
beam them to whatever
sunshiny place they were
going. Instead, they are stuck
in the airport just like the folks
with stupid phones. There
is no app that lets you sleep
comfortably in an airport.
There are apps that will tell
you the temperature of the
beach you are supposed to be
lying on, and that it’s happy
hour at the bar. Is it even
possible to have a happy hour
in an airport? Let me check
my Airport Happy Hour app.
There are all kinds of apps
that can tell you exactly what
time the next big blizzard of
2011 will hit, but apparently
there is no app that tells you to
stay off Chicago’s Lake Shore
Drive in the middle of it. The
good news is that there is an

she wasn’t pregnant when
they first got trapped in the
storm. I guess there’s no app
for that. I just got an invitation
to their wedding on my smart
phone. Sometimes I think
their phone is a lot smarter
than they are.
I don’t know what it’s
called, but there must be an
app that tells people to run
down to the grocery store
and buy every loaf of bread
and roll of toilet paper every
time someone says the word
“snow.” I wonder if there’s an
app that can tell me exactly
how long the average family
can live without bread? One
hour? One day? After that,
does starvation set in? And
how long should you wait to
panic?
“Two days without bread!
They’ll find us passed out

Oil fields opening in Western US

By JONATHAN FAHEY
Associated Press
A new drilling technique is opening up vast fields of pre-
viously out-of-reach oil in the western United States, help-
ing reverse a two-decade decline in domestic production of
crude.
Companies are investing billions of dollars to get at oil
deposits scattered across North Dakota, Colorado, Texas and
California. By 2015, oil executives and analysts say, the new
fields could yield as much as 2 million barrels of oil a day —
more than the entire Gulf of Mexico produces now.
This new drilling is expected to raise U.S. production by at
least 20 percent over the next five years. And within 10 years,
it could help reduce oil imports by more than half, advancing
a goal that has long eluded policymakers.
Oil engineers are applying what critics say is an envi-
ronmentally questionable method developed in recent years
to tap natural gas trapped in underground shale. They drill
down and horizontally into the rock, then pump water, sand
and chemicals into the hole to crack the shale and allow gas
to flow up.
Because oil molecules are sticky and larger than gas
molecules, engineers thought the process wouldn’t work

We Salute
Mr. Robert Arnzen
Bob Arnzen was one of a kind.
Admired and looked up to as a
great example of how to
live life to its fullest.
A great family man, a loving
husband, father and grandpa.
He was a phenomenal coach and
teacher and a special friend to
many in our community.
He touched so many lives around
him by his compassion
and his zest for life.
Delphos was very fortunate to
have such a man as
one of its citizens.
We thank Bob for his dedication
to making this
world a better place.
Arnzen ‘one of a kind’
By MARGE (ARNZEN)
MASCHMEYER
Sister of Bob Arnzen
Bob was born in Newport,
Kentucky, son of Harry and
Mary Arnzen.
He had two older broth-
ers, Harry and Bill (both
deceased) and a younger
sister, me. Our dad was a
tailor and his shop was in
the rear of our home over the
garage.
In later years, Dad man-
aged the Newport Bowling
Alleys, where Bob and
his siblings practiced their
bowling skills. He attend-
ed Immaculate Conception
Grade School and served
Mass quite frequently. I told
Bob on many occasions that
he should be a priest but he
wanted no part of that.
All the teachers at the
grade school were Sisters of
Charity nuns and knew him
quite well.
A few years ago, he was
visiting his nephew, Tim
Arnzen in Cambellsville,
Kentucky, and Tim men-
tioned that the Motherhouse
of the Sisters of Charity was
not far away and they decid-
ed to pay a visit. To put this
in perspective, Bob had left
grade school in 1940 and
this was some 50-odd years
later. Upon arriving at the
convent, Bob was met by an

if Sister Catherine Francis
was still living. She replied,
“yes, Bobby Arnzen; you are
looking at her.” Even then,
after all those years, Bob
left a lasting impression on
people.
After grade school, Bob
attended St. Xavier High
School, an all-boys school
located at that time in down-
town Cincinnati. He did not
play on the basketball squad
but did play in the intramu-
ral league and also in the
Northern Kentucky church
basketball league. It was his
participation in those pro-

Then, as they say, “THE
REST IS HISTORY.”
Many have asked what
or who made Bob the way
he was. I truly feel he was
born this way and God made
him the way he was and then
broke the mold after he was

During summers while at
college, Bob played in the
semi-pro baseball league in
Northern Kentucky. He was
an outstanding shortstop for
the Newport Steelers team.
During these years, Bob
also worked at the Fountain

said to us many times “I
really don’t want to do this

We are glad he didn’t.

A Tribute to Robert Arnzen

By FRAN VOLL
Former coach, teacher
and athletic director at St.
John’s with Arnzen
Current principal at
Marion Catholic High
School
Bob seemed to empha-
size coaching the boys over
and above anything else and
really did not concern him-
self with the opposing coach,
team, or score clock.
The results were usually
a Blue Jay victory and the
opposition was never insulted
by his first-class system of
doing things on the court.
The results were a tremen-
dous respect for Bob and
Delphos St. John’s.
My greatest times spent
with Bob were during our
summer camps. We always

VOLL
had a great turnout of camp-
ers and would employ many
of the local coaches, which
was really a lot of fun.
This was especially in
working with the boys and
girls to be better players
no matter what school they
attended.
There were many lasting
friendships for Bob with the
thousands of kids and coach-
es whose lives he was able to
touch through the common
emphasis on playing better
basketball.
Bob had a lot to do with
the success of our Blue Jay
girls program as he watched
our kids work hard to play the
game well, just as their broth-
ers and fathers had done for
him many years before.
He appreciated the fact the
girls worked hard and wanted
to be accepted as good bas-
ketball players.
Over and above the bas-
ketball, he always encour-
aged kids to do well no mat-
ter what sport or activity they
were participating in.

competed against once a

a friend and a man who gave

The Following are excerpts from the
Delphos Herald, August 28, 1993.
The Rev. James Peiffer,
St. John’s pastor and school
superintendent, Friday
evening directed that the high
school gymnasium “would
be known as the Robert
A. Arnzen Gymnasium.
Rev. Peiffer made the
announcement to a crowd of
more than 750 people during
an open house Friday night
in honor of retiring St. John’s
High School boys basketball
Coach Bob Arnzen. The
crowd responded to Rev.
Peiffer’s announcement with
a standing ovation.
He also presented a plaque
to Arnzen “as a memento of
the markings to be placed
above the doorways of the
gymnasium.”
Coach Arnzen was
also praised by Mayor
John Sheeter who read a
proclamation establishing
“Bob Arnzen Day.”
A letter from Gov. George
Voinovich cited Arnzen’s
record of 676 games won
to 291 losses. The governor
also cited Arnzen’s five
teams that went to state in
1954, 1973, 1982, 1983 and
1990 and his 28-0 record and
state championship in 1983.
The 28 wins broke a 52-year-
old St. John’s record for the
most wins in a season.
For over an hour a dozen
speakers praised Arnzen at
the open house program.
Ray Etzler, Crestview
High School basketball
coach, has met Arnzen’s
teams on the basketball
court a number of times. He
said he was a player when
Arnzen began his coaching
career 43 years ago.
“Quality in a person’s life
is in direct proportion to his
commitment to excellence,’
Etzler said. “Bob was called
to be a coach and I’m sure
God would look down
and say ‘well done, Coach
Arnzen, My servant.’
“Bob knows how to love,
Etzler said. “He makes you
feel good and he makes the
kids feel good.”
Arnzen was the final
speaker of the evening.
“Thank you for all the
nice words, “Arnzen said,
“If I knew I was that good, I
would have never retired.”
“Any honors I’ve ever
gotten or our teams have
gotten I’d like to share with
everyone,” Arnzen said.
“Head coaches are only as
good as their assistants. The
assistants develop the good
players long before we get
hold of them.”
“To build a good team
takes good players, coaches,
athletic directors, good
faculty support, a good

A Tribute to Robert Arnzen

‘He was just Grandpa’
By ANNE GULICK
Bob Arnzen’s
granddaughter
Daughter of Jeanne
(Arnzen) Gulick
Madeira, Ohio

To many people, he was a

legendary coach, but I knew
him as a very sweet Grandpa
who was kind to everyone.
For a man who was very
well-known and even had his
own bobblehead, he was the
most humble person I’ve ever
met.
Grandpa loved his family,
his community and basket-
ball.
One of my favorite memo-
ries with Grandpa was when
he put endless nightcrawlers
on my fishing pole at Indian
Lake when I was afraid to do
it myself, then he was stuck
untangling the lines countless
times.
He loved to sing to me,
“Annie Rooney is my sweet-
heart,” and complimented me
on everything I did. Arnzen with things he was most proud of - his grandchildren
He shot baskets with me so and his Hall of Fame induction.

Arnzen: a role model

many times to try to help me
become a better basketball
player. He was so detailed.
When he was in his 80s,
with two new knees, he was
trying to explain to me how
to read the defense. He want-
ed me to make a fake and he
ended up falling down and
luckily getting back up.
He was a proud grandpa,
telling everybody in Delphos
his granddaughter faked him
out. By FRANK MINNIG
Everyone who has met Former player and
Grandpa is better because of assistant coach
it and I hope I can be half as under Arnzen
good of a person as he was. Former coach at Van
Wert against Arnzen
I have been very fortunate
in my life to have many posi-
tive role models, from my
parents, grandparents, aunts
and uncles.
Also, like many others,
I have had the privilege of
being associated with Coach
Arnzen as a student, player,
coach and friend.
As I contemplated on
Coach’s many positive char-
acteristics, three qualities
come to mind.
• Coach had the ability to
motivate and guide a person
so that they could get the
most out of their ability. In
addition, he helped you dis-
cover abilities that you may
not have been aware of in
yourself, then helped you fos-
ter them.
His affect on my life was
huge. I had little or no interest
in going to college but Coach
sat me down after our last
tournament game, as only he
could, and convinced me to
continue my education and
basketball career at the col-
lege level.
He evidently saw some
potential in me that I did not
see in myself.
• Coach Arnzen was also
consistent with his teachings
and personality. He was a
steady influence on those
around him.
My first year (1970-71)
teaching and coaching at St.
John’s, the Blue Jays had
a very good 15 and 3 sea-
son. We were picked to go
deep into the tournament.
However, Coldwater had
other ideas and upset us in
the first game of the tourna-
ment.
As a rookie assistant
coach, I was as devastated
as the players after the game.
However, in the locker room
after the game he was a mas-
ter with picking everyone up.
He made sure the seniors on
the team knew all they had
accomplished in their time at
St. John’s. He helped them
feel good about themselves
after a tough loss. You could
see their broken hearts start
to mend.
He had the underclassman
thinking about next year and
how they were more than
capable of carrying on the
Blue Jay Tradition. We all
walked out of that locker
room that night feeling a lit-
tle better because of Coach
Arnzen.
• The third is his steadying
influence. This was shown
very much in the 1972-73
season.
We struggled for most of
the year but Coach’s steady-
ing influence held everyone
together. He saw the potential
in those players that others
did not.
After a 7-7 start to the sea-
son, everything came togeth-
er, and the Jays were off and
running on an 11-game win-
ning streak that took us to the
state finals.
The master of motivation
and consistency had worked
his magic again. The Blue Jay
Nation was flying high.
God bless you, Coach; rest
in peace!
Finally, I’d like to thank
Coach’s wife, Alice, for shar-
ing him with us. A coach’s
wife has to make many sacri-
fices to allow her husband to
put the necessary time in to
do his job.
Alice, you truly were a
major part in Coach’s success
and sustaining the Blue Jay
tradition year after year.
I think being a good
coach’s wife comes under
that “better or worse” thing
in the marriage vows.
Alice, you were the master
of the master. Thank you!!!

Not - How did he die? But - How did he live?

Not - What did he gain? But - What did he give?

These are the things that measure the worth

Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.

Not - What was his station? But - had he a heart?

And - How did he play his God-given part?

Was he ever ready with a word of good cheer?

To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?

Not - What was his church? Not - What was his creed?
But - Had he befriended those really in need?

Not - What did the sketch in the newspaper say?

But - How many were sorry when he passed away?

These are the things that measure the worth

Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.

This bluejay has earned his wings.....

Concordia sweeps
UNOH cagers
ANN ARBOR, Mich. —
The University of Northwestern
Ohio men’s and women’s bas-
ketball teams paid a visit to
Concordia University and the
Cardinal Fieldhouse in Anna
Arbor, Michigan, Wednesday
night.
They made
the long trip
back on the
short end of a
pair of losses.
The Lady
Cardinals downed the Lady
Racers 70-63, while the
Cardinal men eked past the
Racers 75-74.
On the women’s side, there
was a quick exchange of the
lead early on and five ties in
the first half — with the larg-
est margin of 29-22 by the
home team with 3:28 show-
ing on a basket by Marion
Rodriguez (13 counters). They
took a 32-29 halftime lead with
Kortni Elsworth (17 counters)
sank a 3-pointer with three
ticks on the clock.
The Cardinals kept the lead
most of the first part of the sec-
ond half but the Lady Racers
caught them at the 12:16 mark
on a triple by Jenna Blackburn
(7 points). They took the lead
on a Tara Olberding (6 mark-
ers) 3-ball at 11:09 and what
followed saw two trades of
the lead. The Racers, once
they grabbed it again, held it
for eight minutes before the
Cardinals tied it at 56 on a
Brittani Simmons (a double-
double of 20 points and 10
boards, 3 assists) fielder at
3:21. They took the lead for
good at 2:22 on
another Simmons
fielder, touching
off a 14-7 clos-
ing spurt to seal
the deal. They hit
6-of-6 free throws
in the final 1:21 to
help salt the contest away.
UNOH connected on 18-of-
54 shots (8-of-22 3-balls) for
33.3 percent and 19-of-22 at
the line for stellar 86.4 percent.
Amanda Henry was high scor-
er with 15 and Alexa Kennedy
had eight. All 10 Racers that
played netted at least three
points.
Concordia counted 28-of-60
from the floor (4-of-14 triples)
for 46.7 percent and 10-of-14
stripers (71.4%).
On the men’s side, it stayed
close throughout the night.
There were four ties and three
trades of the lead in the first
half, with UNOH having the
largest lead of eight two times
before settling for a 39-36 half-
time lead.
The Racers maintained
LOCAL ROUNDUP
the lead throughout the sec-
ond half, building as much
as a 7-point spread, the final
time at 57-50 on a 3-pointer
by Dustin Guthrie (13 points)
before the Cardinals battled
back to tie it at 57 on a fielder
by Marius Williams at 10:48.
From then on, the battle was
on for supremacy — with two
ties and three trades of the
lead. The final one was at 7:04
when Chad McMullen drained
a triple to give the home team
a 65-64 margin. The visitors
could never get it back again.
Down by four — 75-71 —
with two seconds left, Jake
Bolyard (17 markers) drained a
3 and the Racers fouled quick-
ly. Williams missed the front
end of the bonus but Guthrie’s
long 3-pointer didn’t go in.
Kyle Guillette led the
Racers with 18 counters and
seven blocks and Isaac Bowers
added 15, all on 3s. They
canned 29-of-72 shots (9-of-
21 downtown) for 40.3 percent
and 7-of-13 singles (53.8%).
Helping the Cardinals were
Rocko Holmes with 13, Austin
Cook 10 and Ryan Walton
with 15 rebounds. They net-
ted 27-of-73 shots (9-of-22
long range) for 37 percent and
12-of-15 at the line (80%).

60-55 win over Beavers
on Senior Night
By: Josh Bruner
Sports information assistant
BLUFFTON — The Bluffton
University women’s basketball
team hosted the Manchester
College Spartans on Wednesday.
The teams battled throughout the
first half as Bluffton took a slight
26-25 advantage at the break.
The Spartans put together a run in
the second period, outscor-
ing the Beavers 35-29 for
a 60-55 victory on Senior
Night in Founders Hall.
The win moves Manchester
to 12-10 overall with a 10-5
mark in the HCAC, while
Bluffton fell to 9-13 overall and
6-9 in the HCAC.
The Spartans started the
game in control as they went
up 8-0 after just two minutes of
play. The Beavers finally pulled
together for their first point of the
game with a Brittany Stegmaier
(Garfield/Trinity) free throw at
the 16:44 mark.
Bluffton continued the scor-
ing when a Kylee Burkholder
(West Unity/Hilltop) deuce made
it 8-7 as the Beavers only trailed
by one with 14 minutes left in
the half. The Spartans responded
to the Beaver run with a spurt of
their own and they quickly went
up by double digits after two
Erynn Meiklejohn free throws
gave the Spartans an 18-7 lead.
The Beavers answered with a
9-0 jag, capped by a Kim Meyer
(Millbury/Lake) 3-pointer. The
teams traded points over the next
three minutes before a Stegmaier
steal and layup pulled Bluffton
within one at the 4:34 mark.
The Spartans put together an
old fashioned three-point play
from Sarah Lowther to push the
lead back to four with 3:27 left.
Kim Miller (Delphos/St. John’s)
controlled the remaining three
minutes as she scored five points
while the Beavers kept
the Spartans scoreless,
giving Bluffton a 26-25
lead going into the half.
The teams struggled
to start the half as they
only managed two
points each during the first two
minutes of play. The Spartans
started to take control as a Kelsey
DeMott free throw pushed the
Spartans to a 38-32 lead.
Bluffton answered with a
quick 5-0 run which was capped
by a layup from junior Rachel
Daman (Defiance/Tinora) with
11:33 left in the game. The
Spartans once again went up
by six (45-39) after two DeMott
free throws at the 7:39 mark.
Bluffton made an attempt at
the lead at the end and cut it
to three after a Daman triple.
The Spartans countered with a
pair of makes at the stripe for a
60-55 win.
The Beavers’ offense was
evenly distributed with three
players in double digits.
