graduated from Lehman Catholic HighSchool in 1999. She was in student govern-ment, a cheerleader and ran cross countryfor the Cavaliers. She was a member of theKairos Team, which led the senior religiousretreat. “I loved every minute of high school,”she said. “It shaped who I am today.”During her sophomore year, Ford was in-
fluenced by her English teacher Mr. Bernotwho inspired her to become an English
t ea che r.“He wasthe first
teacher to allow and accept ouropinions,” Ford said. “He pushed theenvelope of rules and regulationsand kept us challenged and inter-ested.”Ford pursued education by en-
rolling at Bowling Green State Uni-versity where she earned abachelor’s degree in education, Inte-grated Language Arts grades 7-12.Later, she received a master’s de-gree in education administration

Did you know thatthere are actually overabout three hundred vari-eties of squirrels aroundthe world? What a coolsquirrel fact! Of course,in North America thereare only about 10, butaround the world, thespecies of the squirrelsequal up to about threehundred different ones!
There are many dif-ferent sizes of squirrels.For example, there is thegray squirrel, which canbe up to three times aslarge as the red squirrelbut quite a great dealsmaller than a fox squir-rel. A fox squirrel is byfar the largest of thesquirrel family and eventhough the size of anadult gray squirrel isabout 18 inches long andcan weight about apound, the fox squirrelstill has the gray squirrelbeat!
Generally all squirrels
live in trees, basically inthe holes of trunks oreven in the treetop inabandon crow’s nests.Squirrels will usually startlooking for a nest whenthey start to mate, whichis when they are about ayear old. It usually takesabout six weeks from thetime that the squirrelsmate until there are babysquirrels running around.Baby squirrels are calledkittens and kittens areborn only twice a year.Once in the spring timeand once at the end ofthe summer; it is notunusual for the femalesquirrel to have abouttwo to five kittens.
When it comes to asquirrel’s diet, the factsare they will eat acorns,wheat, fruit, bird’s eggs,mushrooms, berries, oakbuds, corn, insects,moths, nesting birds andespecially nuts of anykinds. Squirrels will typi-
cally gather and save alot of their food all yearround but this is definitelytrue when it comes to theautumn time. When yousee them collecting alltheir nuts just before win-ter it is because they aregetting ready for winterand they want to makesure that they haveenough food to last them.After they have buried allof their food and whenwinter comes and goes,the squirrel will wake upout of hibernation and golook for the food theyburied!
Squirrels can general-ly live anywhere from tento twelve years but afterabout six years, they areconsidered old squirrels.Some of the most com-mon ways that squirrelsdie is being attacked bytheir natural predators orthey can also die fromtraffic. Many squirrels donot make it up to the tenyear mark due to trafficand while it is not ourfault most of the time, wedefinitely need to keepour eyes peeled for theseamazing creatures.
Where do you find Red Squirrelsmost often?Coniferous forests. Red Squirrels feedon the seeds and cones of Pinetrees, Fir trees and Spruce trees.
Which are the most common treesquirrels found in America?The Gray Squirrel. They often live incities and close to humans -- and eata wide variety of food from nuts,seeds and fruit to human trash includ-ing bread, meat and table scraps.
Why do squirrels have such longtails?Tree squirrels, in particular, have longtails to help them balance as they runup and down and from tree to tree.It's like holding a stick sideways whenwe balance on a beam. Squirrels alsouse their long fluffy tails as an"umbrella" — to shade them from hotsunlight, shield them from rain, warmthem during cold weather, and as aflag to communicate with other squir-rels.
How fast are squirrels?Tree squirrels run and jump so fastthat they have been clocked at 20miles per hour. The average squirrelusually scampers at about half thatspeed. However — they don't do sowell on streets. Squirrels have a habitof stopping when danger runs towardthem — but not cars. When they usethis natural behavior on streets, carstend to run over them.
How long do squirrels live?The average life span for a squirrel inthe wild is 3-5 years. Their main pred-ators are hawks, owls, cats, and pred-ators of baby squirrels can includesnakes, crows and other squirrels.
Clip pictures of animals and plantsfrom the newspaper and on largesheets of paper; glue them into theirspecies categories.
Squirrels areclever animals thatsurvive the longwinter by storingnuts. Pit your witsagainst the squir-rel in this funsquirrel activitythat lets you playhide and seek witha resourcefulrodent.What You'll Need:• Peanuts still in the shell• Garden gloves
Ever wonder how you'd do if you became a squirrel? Here's a wayto find out.
Take 30 peanuts and bury them in piles of leaves, small moundsof dirt, near trees, or in sidewalk crevices.
Then, wait a week, put on your garden gloves, and try to find thepeanuts you buried. Other squirrels may have gotten to your stashfirst — how good were your hiding places?

What are squirrels most talented atdoing?Tree squirrels run fast and jump longdistances on tiny branches high up intrees. Ground squirrels dig long tun-nels very fast. Many squirrels chatterand use their tails to communicate acomplex language. All squirrels havevery sharp teeth and flexible frontpaws -- and are very smart aboutopening containers and solving otherfood-related challenges. Squirrelshave sensitive hearing. Squirrels havebig eyes that see very well -- but theyare on the sides of their heads, sothey don't see what's at the tip of theirnose.That's one reason it can be dan-gerous to feed a squirrel -- it can't seeyour fingers and might accidentally bityou if you get too close.
Are squirrels friendly?Tree squirrels — especially GraySquirrels — are quite used to humans
and many will come close to peoplehoping they will be fed. However,squirrels deserve our respectful dis-tance. They have very sharp teethand sharp claws and defend them-selves by biting and scratching if theyare startled. However, they are fun toobserve. Think of it like this — peopleare HUGE to the little squirrels. If aHUGE animal tried to play withyou...would you defend yourself? Ofcourse! So treat them with gentlerespect...and they can be wonderful"wild friends".
Do squirrels live in houses?Squirrels build their own "houses" forsummer use, and they live in cavitiesin large trees during cold wintermonths to keep them warm. They aremammals, so they need to protectthemselves from both cold and hotweather just like people do.However, did you mean, "do squirrels
live in people houses?" Yes, theysometimes do find a way to climb intoan attic or empty room. They lovebeing protected from natural enemiessuch as hawks and cats and evensnakes. And they enjoy the snugwarmth, too. Squirrels can be prettynoisy in an attic — so if you don't wantsquirrels in your attic, prevention is thebest solution. Making sure that smallholes are repaired with metal plates,and that scrap food is removed willencourage squirrels to go find theirnatural home space and natural foodsources. Use metal whenever possi-ble -- avoid plastic, PVC and wood insquirrel territory.You might want to place pet food dish-es, garbage cans and bird feederscarefully -- they look like a holiday din-ner to a hungry squirrel! It's a lot eas-ier than foraging for nuts and fruit, sothey will visit these human dinersevery day once they are discovered.

This is not just done just before thewinter time; it is actually done allyear round. So while the squirrelsare digging, they are usually notonly trying to hide their extra nutsthe garden soil, but they are alsodigging up fresh bulbs that garden-ers plant in the spring time. One ofthe favorite things on a squirrel’smenu is flower bulbs.
Something about the taste of abulb is absolutely something that asquirrel can not resist and if theyhappen to dig one up while they arehiding their nuts in the soil, and thenthey will swap it out! This is one ofthe reasons why gardeners andsquirrels simply do not get along atall. Gardeners will spend all of thattime planting a whole lot of bulbsonly to get half of the flowers thatthey planted due to squirrels dig-ging up the rest!
When it comes to squirrels,there are a lot of things that theselittle critters will eat that make gar-deners hate them. Not only aresquirrels one of the most hatedcreatures in the rodent familybecause of their diet but they arealso one of the cutest lookingrodents! Squirrels have been anannoyance to many gardeners forcenturies and if you are interestedin exactly what do squirrels eat,
that is what we are going to explorein this article!
Most squirrels are vegetarians.There are a few exceptions like theflying squirrel. The flying squirrelwill eat small birds, insects and def-initely steal eggs from birds nest inorder to make a meal. Generallyspeaking though, squirrels willmainly stick to things that are vege-tarian related.
The main diet of squirrels is:
nuts, seeds, fruits, lichens, buds,mushrooms, roots, pine cones,leaves, twigs, bark, black walnuts,oranges, avocados, apples, apri-cots. One of their favorites is defi-
nitely corn on the cob that is driedand hung up for them. Squirrelsare not picky eaters at all and theywill pretty much consume anythingthat is in front of them as long as ittastes good, this is especially truewhen it comes to flower bulbs!
Now that we have exploredexactly what a squirrel eats, let’s goahead and explore why exactly gar-deners hate these adorable crea-tures so much. Well, as you mightknow, squirrels love to dig and hidetheir extra food all over the place.

“We’ve been walking for-ever!” Felix moaned. “Arewe almost there?”
“Quit whining,” Hectorsaid. “We’re making goodtime.”
“Why don’t you tell usmore about the gold?” Karolsuggested, stopping to rest ona large tree stump.
“Yeah, let’s hear it,” Felixagreed, carefully sitting onthe ground.
“All I’ll tell you is that Ithink the gold came from aking, a long time ago,”Hector began.
“What king?” Karoljumped in.
“And where is it buried?”Felix quickly asked.
“Whoa,” Hector said.“Nobody said it’s buried.And remember, the treasureis in the journey.”
“What in the world is thatsupposed to mean?” Felixsnickered.
“That’s all I’m saying fornow,” Hector answered mys-teriously.
“Well, maybe we should
get going on that journey,”Felix said, standing a littletoo quickly on his injuredfoot. “I’ll be happy once weget there.”
“How’s the ankle doing?”Hector asked.
“I’m fine,” Felix tappedhis backpack. “Coronado andhis men endured crazy stuffduring their expedition. Mybiggest fear is running out oflicorice before we get toGallinas!”
A short time later, Hectorstopped. He put one hand onhis hip and pointed west withthe other. “Hah! What’sthat?” he barked.
Karol and Felix looked atthe large orange-red glowover the approaching hori-zon. The color remindedFelix of his grandma’s veryspicy salsa. Suddenly, he felthungry.
“The sun is going down!”Karol said. “Not good!”
“No. Look, just beyondthose trees. That’s Highway54.” Hector said proudly,maintaining his hero stance.
The three explorers quick-ly headed toward the high-way with renewed enthusi-asm. They only paused for amoment in front of a giantsign that read ENTRADADE CIBOLA NATIONALFOREST.
“I hate to say it,” Karolsaid, “but we should startlooking for a place to camptonight.”
“She’s right,” Felixagreed.
“How about here?” Hectorsuggested a spot. There werea couple of large fallen treesto sit on and even some small
pieces of wood for starting afire.
“Oh man, did anyonethink to bring matches?”Felix began to worry.
“I think there are somespecial waterproof matchesin my camping pack,” Karoloffered.
“Gracias,” Felix said,relieved. “OK, you two starta fire. I’ll go look for somerocks to put around the firepit.”
Felix had been gone foronly a few minutes when themost unusual smell caughthis attention. It waftedthrough the air and made itsway across the rocks andtrees. It was not a smell you’dexpect at the edge of a forest.It smelled like … pizza!
“Hey, you guys, savesome for me!” Felix yelled,limping towards his twofriends, who were now roast-ing slices of pizza over theopen fire.
“Felix, what is that bellyou’ve been wearing aroundyour neck?” Karol asked.
“Well, it’s kind of cursed.At least that’s what mygrandma thinks,” Felixbegan, as they all sat enjoy-ing their warm, smoky pizza.“She tells me some prettycrazy stories sometimes.”
“Let’s hear one!” Hectorcoaxed, licking meltedcheese from his sleeve.
“I’m not sure if you’d beinterested,” Felix said, sud-denly embarrassed about his
family history.“Come on, Felix, we real-
ly want to hear one,” Karolsaid sincerely.
“My great-great-grandfather Eduardo foughtbravely in the MexicanRevolution,” Felix began.“Late one night, he fellasleep a little too close to acampfire. His weapon got hotand a bullet shot right into hischest. It probably would havekilled him, but he just hap-pened to be wearing thisbrass bell.” Felix took off thebell, letting each of them feelthe dent in the side.
“OK, then,” Hector said.“I think it’s time to moveaway from the fire.”
“So is it cursed, or lucky?”Karol asked. All three con-sidered her question, lookingat each other’s faces glowingin the firelight.
While they were still deepin thought, they heard thesound of approaching foot-steps.

ish teacher from Lehmanfor remaining a closefriend and adviser.“Donna Wilberdinghelped me when she was
my teacher,” Ford said.”She taught me that highschool students are notyounger adults; they arepeople who deserve tohave a voice.”Ford attempts to make
class assignments con-nect to the students’lives. “Students are creat-ing their own children’sbooks about witchesusing a photo book cre-ation website called Mix-book,” Ford said. “Myseniors are planningtheir future by writingshort speeches aboutthemselves through videoor audio voice overs.These speeches would bewhat they tell their class-mates at their 10-, 30-,and 50-year reunions.”She is part of the TTL

a jobs bill.“You see his face in the memorial, and
it's kind of an emotional moment,”Cooper said. “It's beautiful. They did awonderful job.”A stage for speakers and thousands
of folding chairs were set up on a fieldnear the memorial along with large TVscreens. Most of the 10,000 chairs setout appeared to be full. Many other peo-ple were standing.The August ceremony had been ex-
pected to draw 250,000, though organiz-ers anticipated about 50,000 forSunday's event.Actress Cicely Tyson said her con-
temporaries are passing the torch to anew generation and passed the micro-phone to 12-year-old Amandla Stenberg.The girl recalled learning about the civilrights movement in school and namedfour young girls killed in a 1963 churchbombing in Birmingham, Ala.“As Dr. King said at their funeral,
'They didn't live long lives, but theylived meaningful lives,'” Amandla said.“I plan to live a meaningful life, too.”About 1.5 million people are esti-
mated to have visited the 30-foot-tallstatue of King and the granite wallswhere 14 of his quotations are carved instone. The memorial is the first on theNational Mall honoring a black leader.The sculpture of King with his arms
crossed appears to emerge from a stone
extracted from a mountain. It wascarved by Chinese artist Lei Yixin. Thedesign was inspired by a line from thefamous “I Have a Dream” speech in1963: “Out of the mountain of despair, astone of hope.”King's “Dream” speech during the
March on Washington galvanized thecivil rights movement.King's older sister, Christine King
Farris, said she witnessed a baby be-come “a great hero to humanity.” Shesaid the memorial will ensure herbrother's legacy will provide a source ofinspiration worldwide for generations.To young people in the crowd, she
said King's message is that “Greatdreams can come true and America isthe place where you can make it hap-pen.”King's daughter, the Rev. Bernice
King, said her family is proud to witnessthe memorial's dedication. She said itwas a long time coming and had been apriority for her mother, Coretta ScottKing, who died in 2006.Bernice King and her brother Martin
Luther King III said their father'sdream is not yet realized.Martin LutherKing III said the nation has “lost itssoul” when it tolerates vast economicdisparities, teen bullying, and havingmore people of color in prison than incollege.He said the memorial should serve as
a catalyst to renew his father's fight for
social and economic justice.“The problem is the American dream
of 50 years ago ... has turned into anightmare for millions of people” whohave lost their jobs and homes, Kingsaid.The nation's first black president,
who was just 6 years old when King wasassassinated in 1968, saluted King as aman who pushed the nation towardwhat it ought to be and changed heartsand minds at the same time.“He had faith in us,” Obama said.
“And that is why he belongs on thisMall: Because he saw what we might be-come.”Giovanni read her poem “In the Spirit
of Martin,” and Franklin sang.Early in the ceremony, during a ren-
dition of “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” thecrowd cheered when images on screenshowed Obama on the night he won the2008 presidential election.Obama, who credits King with paving
his way to the White House, left a copyof his inaugural speech in a time cap-sule at the monument site. He said Kingwas a man who “stirred our conscience”and made the Union “more perfect.”But the Rev. Al Sharpton said the
dedication was not about Obama but theongoing fight for justice. He called forpeople from around the world to walkthrough the stone of hope and emerge tosee “the face that brought us from theback of the bus to the White House.”

Elliott’s step-mother Marla saidthe family has been adjusting tothe shock of the diagnosis of Lou
Gerhig’s disease.“He had trouble with his legs
which he thought was due to backproblems,” Marla said. “In April2010, he was in and out of the hos-pital before they finally diagnosedhim with ALS.”“It’s a horrible disease and we
have good days and we have baddays,” she said.Marla Elliott explained that de-
spite having been admitted to in-tensive care twice and recovering,her beloved step-son keeps fight-ing.“He’s like a cat — he has nine
lives,” she jokingly said. “He’scome through every time and Ihate to see him go through this.”Despite the battle of ALS, Marla
said her step-son is a fighter.“He’s in good spirits and we just
are overwhelmed with the supportfrom friends, strangers and justeveryone who has contacted us,”she said.Bill Elliott has declared war on
Lou Gehrig’s disease and his nowhas an entire community fightingwith him.

WASHINGTON (AP) — In the run-up to the 2012elections, the federal government is orderingthat 248 counties and other political jurisdic-
tions provide bilingual ballots to Hispanics and other mi-norities who speak little or no English.
That number is down from a decade ago following the2000 census, which covered 296 counties in 30 states. Inall,more than 1 in 18 jurisdictions must now provide for-eign-language assistance in pre-election publicity, voterregistration, early voting and absentee applications aswell as Election Day balloting.
The latest requirements, mandated under the VotingRightsAct, partly reflect second and third generations ofracial and ethnic minorities who are now reportinghigher levels of proficiency in English than their parents.Still, analysts cite a greater potential for resistance fromlocalities that face tighter budgets, new laws requiringvoter IDs at polls and increased anti-immigration senti-ment.
Effective this week, Hispanics who don’t speak Eng-lish proficiently will be entitled to Spanish-languageelection material in urban areas of political battlegroundstates including Pennsylvania, Virginia, Wisconsin andUtah, as well as the entire states of California, Floridaand Texas. For the first time, people from India will getelection material in their native language, in votingprecincts in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York, due totheir fast population growth.
More American Indian tribal languages will be madeavailable in many parts of Alaska, Arizona and Missis-sippi, while Vietnamese and Taiwanese will get theirown voting assistance in several new areas, includingparts of Washington state, Texas, Massachusetts andCalifornia. Asian Bangladeshi must be provided for thefirst time in Hamtramck,Mich,which neighbors Detroit.
“We would like to be in a society where everyone hasequal opportunities to vote, but that’s not the realitywe’re living in today,” said James Thomas Tucker, a for-mer Justice Department attorney who is now a votingrights lawyer in LasVegas.Tucker said the law has beenkey in the election of new Hispanic and Asian officialsin many places, even as he noted that a vocal English-only language movement and new budget constraints onlocal governments could stir fresh tensions.
“Some jurisdictions will see pushback,” he said.The Voting Rights Act provision, first approved by
Congress in 1975, requires states, counties and politicalsubdivisions to supply versions of ballots and electionmaterials in other languages if a Latino, Asian-Ameri-can, American Indian or Alaskan minority group makesup more than 5 percent of the voting-age population orat least 10,000 citizens.
The minorities must be unable to speak or understandEnglish well enough to vote in elections, a proficiencylevel determined by those who indicate in census sur-veys that they don’t speak English “very well.” The mi-nority group also should have literacy rates rankingbelow the national average.
In all, 248 counties and other political divisions mustprovide election materials involving 68 covered lan-guages in 25 states, according to the list releasedWednesday by the Census Bureau. The agency puts to-gether the list based on its review of survey data on mi-nority population growth, educational attainment andEnglish proficiency.
Hope Yen covers political issues for The AssociatedPress.
Do Republicans be-lieve Marco Rubio?While much of the
political world has been ob-sessing over decisions byChris Christie and SarahPalin not to run for presi-dent, the freshman senatorfrom Florida has been mak-ing a series of increasinglyShermanesque vows to turndown any offer to join a Re-publican ticket as a vicepresidential candidate.
If Rubio sticks to his guns, it would bea crushing disappointment for many Re-publicans. At a recent GOP straw poll inMichigan, conducted just after the Re-publican debate in Orlando, Rubio wasthe solid winner in the vice presidentialcategory, beating current presidentialcandidates (and eventual VP possibili-ties) Herman Cain, Newt Gingrich andMichele Bachmann.
Some commentators left and right vir-tually assume Rubio will be the man.Conservative columnist Dan Henningerof The Wall Street Journal calls Rubio“Mitt Romney’s probable running mate.”Liberal journalist Ryan Lizza of TheNew Yorker calls the Republican presi-dential race “the contest to be MarcoRubio’s running mate.”
The only problem? Rubio is not play-ing along. In a recent interview at theWashington Ideas Forum, Rubio wasasked whether he “craves” a run for vicepresident. “I don’t crave it,” he re-sponded. “I wanted to be a United Statessenator. I didn’t run for the Senate as anopportunity to have a launching pad forsome other job.”
Nothing definite there; byWashingtonstandards, that could mean Rubio wasapplying for the job. But then inter-viewer Major Garrett asked whetherRubio would turn down a spot on the Re-publican ticket if it were offered to him.
“Yeah, I believe so,” Rubio answered.“I’m not going to be the vice presidentialnominee. I’m focused on my job rightnow, and the answer is going to probablybe no.”
“Probably”? The moment the wordcame out of his mouth, Rubio seemed torealize he had just created a lot of wiggleroom. So he quickly added, “The answeris going to be no. Let’s not say, ‘He leftthe door open.’”
And that was that. By the end of theinterview, Rubio was on record saying hewill turn down any offer to join the Re-publican presidential ticket.
In the past, Rubio has often said sim-ply, “I’m not going to be the vice presi-dential nominee” or “I’m not going to beon a ticket in 2012.” Some have taken
that to mean Rubio had nointention to join the ticketbut that things could al-ways change.
Then, in May, Rubio ap-peared on NBC’s “Meet thePress,” where he said “Iwon’t consider” a vice presi-dential spot.
“So under no circum-stances would you serve ona ticket in 2012?”moderatorDavid Gregory asked.
“No, I’m not going to be on a ticket in2012,” Rubio said.
“Under no circumstances?” Gregoryasked again.
“Under no circumstances,” said Rubio.Now, with Rubio’s “the answer is going
to be no” statement, Republicans need toconsider the possibility that Rubio’s an-swer is actually going to be no. So far,though, there’s no sign the presidentialcandidates have gotten the message.
“Sen. Rubio is a respected conserva-tive from a big, important state and willcertainly continue to be in the mixwhether he wants to be or not,” says aspokesman for Texas Gov. Rick Perry.“From our standpoint, it’s too early to bediscussing running mates, but Sen.Rubio is certainly an energetic conser-vative with a very bright future.”
Current GOP front-runner Mitt Rom-ney also says it’s too early to talk vicepresidential picks but calls Rubio a per-son “anyone would be proud to be asso-ciated with.”
There are plenty of other Republicanvice presidential possibilities, amongthemVirginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, NewMexico Gov. Susana Martinez, Sen.John Thune of South Dakota and thetwo governors who declined to run forpresident, Christie and Indiana’s MitchDaniels.
But Rubio, with his personal story,compelling speaking style and tea partycredentials, will likely stay high on thelist. And he could always change hismind.Yes, he would take some flak for it,but remember that some Republicanswere begging Christie to run for presi-dent even after he said repeatedly hewasn’t ready for the job. A Rubio walk-back wouldn’t be that hard.
On the other hand, the candidatesknow Rubio has time to wait. He justturned 40 this year and, if all goes well,can take his pick of campaigns in 2012,2016, 2020, 2024 and 2028. But for thenext Republican presidential nominee,the question is more timely: DoesRubio’s “no” really mean “no”?

To the Editor:We have studied the
Piqua City Schools issue.We have reviewed the fi-nancial costs and we seethat voting for the newschools is the cost effectiveoption. It is more costly tocontinue to maintainseven old buildings withtheir limitations in utili-ities, space and technol-ogy than replacing themwith three more efficientbuildings.
We think the planninggroup has chosen excellentsight locations for eachbuilding. It will be won-derful to see the old hospi-tal location again be usedfor the benefit of our com-munity. Constructing newbuildings at the Washing-ton and Springcreek loca-tions help serve ouryounger children on bothsides of town.
We especially like thatour school system andcommunity will receive 47cents on each dollar forthis project from the Statefund. Our local propertyvalues will be restoredwithout having to fundthese projects soley fromour property taxes. It is awin/win.
The future for Piqua’schildren is now. Pleasejoin us in voting “yes” forPiqua’s schools.

DEAR ABBY: My son,“Beau,” married “Patsy”four years ago. She lefthim after two years andmoved out of state. Thereare no legal separation pa-pers, no child support, andmy grandson lives withhis daddy.Beau has a mistress
now and tells peoplethey’re “engaged.” “Luci’s”family refers to my son asher fiance and she’s con-sidered Mommy to mygrandson. When I cor-rected those titles at a re-cent family function, itcaused friction.In my opinion, they
can’t be engaged untilBeau is first divorced. Tome, marriage is impor-tant; it matters. I am dis-turbed by my son’s refusalto end his marriage. I feelit is unfair to Luci, whojust had his second child.Beau claims Patsy lefthim, so she should file forthe divorce.Please understand that
Luci and I have becomeclose. She’s thoughtful, in-telligent, well-spoken, anda wonderful mother toboth my grandchildren. Ijust feel Beau should fin-ish his first marriage.Thisis not the type of man Imeant to raise, and thatthis is the person he hasbecome shames me to mysoul.Am I out of step with so-
ciety? Am I the only onewho finds this setup un-fair to Luci and insultingto me, the mother whotried to raise him to be abetter man than this? Ihave talked to a counselor,Abby, and it’s killing me.
— DISRESPECTEDMOTHER IN TEXAS
DEAR MOM: You’renot out of step, and youare correct that the cur-rent arrangement is un-fair to Luci. If your sonshould die tomorrow(heaven forbid), Patsywould be a merry widowwith all his assets, andLuci would be left withfond memories and a babyto raise by herself. Period.Not knowing Beau, I
can’t know his reasons fornot divorcing the womanwho left him and ensuringthat Luci and the childrenare taken care of. But I amsure of this: His reasonsare NOT solely that hethinks his wife should bethe one to file.Raising a child well
does not guarantee he (orshe) will turn out to be acarbon copy of his or herparent. So for your ownsake, please stop personal-izing this.
DEAR ABBY: I was
out to lunch with my son,his new wife, “Taylor,” andher family. My son asked,“Mom, do you want some-thing else to eat?” Natu-rally, I thought he wasspeaking to me, so I an-swered. I was crushedwhen he said, “No, I wastalking to ‘Sally’” (Taylor’smother)!I feel it’s wrong for my
son to call someone elseMom, and furthermore,Sally should have saidsomething, but she didn’t.Taylor and I are close, butshe would never call meMom, especially in front ofher own mother. Am Ibeing silly? Or should I letthis go?
— HIS ONLY MOM
DEAR ONLY MOM:Let it go. Your son wasprobably calling Taylor’smother “Mom” because hehad been asked to do so.(“‘Sonny,’ we’re familynow. Please call me‘Mom.’”) It would not, how-ever, be confrontational totell your son that hearinghim do it was hard toswallow.
DEAR ABBY: I walkdaily with a friend whoconstantly complainsabout her job — “I haveseven meetings, a personto train and emails towrite, blah, blah, blah…” Ioccasionally have an open-ing to mention my prob-lems, but it’s rare. I lovethis friend, but her con-stant complaining is wear-ing on me. How can I gether to just enjoy the breakand not spend 20 minutesmoaning and groaning?

The bidding:South West North
East3 [S] Pass 4 [S]Opening lead — king of
diamonds.Some hands played in
the annual world champi-onship prove to be down-right embarrassing to theparticipants. For example,take this deal from the1973 match between theDallas Aces, who were thedefending champions, andanother U.S. team that in-cluded Paul Soloway andJohn Swanson.When Soloway and
Swanson were North-South, they got to fourspades, making seven, inthe manner shown. And
when BobbyWolff and BobHamman of the Aces wereNorth-South, they bid thehand exactly the samewayand also made seven!There was no strong
feeling at the time that ei-ther pair had done any-thing wrong by raisingthree spades to four, eventhough the odds in favor ofmaking seven on theNorth-South cards wereabout 3-to-1.The shortcomings in the
biddingmethods of the twoU.S. pairs were soon madeapparent when the Italianteam played the same
hand against Indonesia inanother match. With Ben-ito Garozzo and GiorgioBelladonna of Italy North-South, the bidding went:Four clubs was a cuebid
inferentially acceptingspades as trumps and, atthe same time, requestingSouth to show his side-suit
controls, if any. Four dia-monds was also a cuebid,indicating a diamond con-trol. The subsequent re-double by South confirmedfirst-round diamond con-trol.Five notrump was the
Grand Slam Force, askingSouth to bid seven spadesif he had two of the topthree trump honors. Bel-
ladonna duly bid the grandslam, which he made, andthe Italians provided yetanother example of theirexcellence in the field ofslam bidding.
Tomorrow:A reward forgood behavior.

This Tuesday photo provided by the Theatre des Amandiers, USA’s Tina Benko performs in Desdemona, di-rected by American director Peter Sellars, at the Amandier theater in Nanterre, outside Paris. With “Desde-mona,” a play that opened earlier this week, the Nobel laureate Toni Morisson probes the hidden sufferingand occult oppression woven into Shakespeare's tale Othello.
JENNY BARCHFIELDAssociated Press
PARIS (AP) — She’s but a throw-away mention in Shakespeare’s“Othello,” a one-line referenceburied in Act IV of the dense anddark tale of passion and betrayal.But Barbary — the African nurse
who raised Othello’s ill-fated wifeDesdemona — is at the very center,the beating heart, of Toni Morri-son’s bold re-imagining of thetragedy.With “Desdemona,” a play that
opened earlier this week at the The-atre Nanterre-Amandiers in a Parissuburb before traveling to SanFrancisco and New York, the Nobellaureate probes the hidden suffer-ing and obscured oppression woveninto Shakespeare’s tale.Directed by California-born Peter
Sellars, “Desdemona” is a dialoguebetween the title character andBarbary, played by striking Malianmusician Rokia Traore, who singsher responses in her native Bam-bara language.Dressed in identical white linen
dresses, the two women movearound in bare feet over a stagestrewn with clusters of empty glassjars and bottles and microphones.Their movements are spare, aswhat matters in this gripping, hyp-notic play are the voices — women’svoices.The project was born out of a con-
versation between Morrison andSellars a decade ago.“I said there’s this really bad play
by Shakespeare called ‘Othello.’ Itmakes no sense, it’s just a disaster,and it’s way past its use-by date,like yoghurt that’s been on theshelves that you should not feedyour children,” Sellars told The As-sociated Press in an interview. “Tonithen spent the next four hourstelling me how wrong I was.”The disagreement between these
two creative giants spawned a dou-ble-dare of sorts: Sellars wouldstage Othello — he says his 2009production was “hugely trashed inAmerica, hugely celebrated in Eu-rope” — while Morrison would“write a response to Shakespeare.”Morrison leapt to international
fame and was awarded the 1993Nobel Prize for Literature for bring-ing into the light lives that had solong lingered in the shadows, so itwas little surprise that she chose toput such strong focus on Barbary.“For Shakespeare, the ideal
woman is silent. The women char-acters he admires the most are theones who say the least. ... Of course,Toni has a different opinion,” saidSellars, with a belly laugh thatshook his trademark gravity-defy-ing shock of finger-in-the-sockethair.Morrison’s Desdemona doesn’t
just talk: Speaking from beyond thegrave, she rants, she whispers, sherails, she cries, she cajoles, she mes-merizes and bewitches.This daughter of a powerful Ve-
netian senator and a noblewomantells of her melancholic childhood inwhich “constraint was the theme of
behavior (and) duty was its plot;” ofher father’s efforts to marry her offand deliver her “profitably and se-curely into the hands of anotherman;” her love affair with Othello,the Moor, who seduces her with histales of adventures in wind-sweptlands, of enslavement, of ship-wrecks and of blood-soaked battles.Desdemona weeps as she re-
counts her relationship with Bar-bary, the “sole consolation” of herloveless, circumscribed childhood.Barbary’s “heart, so wide, seemed
to hold the entire world in awe andto savor its every delight,” says Des-demona, played brilliantly by Amer-ican actress Tina Benko. “I lovedher.”But “when I needed her most, she
stumbled under the spell of herlover” and died of a broken heart.Filled with stories within stories,
“Desdemona” feels like a kind ofRussian stacking doll of disenfran-chisement. Desdemona recountsthe anguish of being a womanwithin a punishing patriarchy andalso gives voice to Othello’s ownalienation as a dark-skinned for-eigner. But it’s Barbary’s pain that’sat the bloody core of the piece.The most haunting moment in
the play comes when Desdemonasees her nurse again through thefogs of the afterlife.“Barbary! Barbary, come closer.
How I have missed you.... You weremy best friend,” Desdemona ex-claims.“I was your slave,” Barbary slices
back.

Donation to libraryWith a nod to what is
possible through sciencefiction, the Bradford Pub-lic Library recently re-ceived $10,000 as adonation from an onlineauction for a rare pre-pub-lication bound manuscriptof a novel by local authorJohn Scalzi.
In the small westernOhio village, librarians andpatrons were unaware ofthe potential gift until a li-brary boardmember discov-ered the auction a few daysbefore the event ended.
Scalzi, a New YorkTimes best selling sciencefiction author, initiated theauction on his website’sblog whatever.scalzi.comoffering incentives to bid-ders beyond the rare man-uscript of Redshirts: ANovel with Three Codasdue for release later thisyear through Tor Books.
The winning bidder,Brad Roberts, is fromBellevue, Wash., and do-nated $7,000 for items pro-vided by Scalzi including a
ukulele song and schaden-freude pie along with ad-ditional chapbooks andmanuscripts. An anony-mous bidder in Californiadonated three-thousanddollars $3,000 to bring thetotal funding to $10,000.
“We are extremely sur-prised and overwhelmedby the magnitude of thisdonation,” said Judith P.Bardo, Bradford LibraryTrustees president. “Thisis the second largest dona-tion ever received by ourboard and we are trulyhumbled and grateful toJohn and the winning bid-ders to be the beneficiaryof such a generous gift.This funding creates newand exciting opportunitiesfor us to provide valuableresources through our vil-lage library.”
Scalzi explained duringthe auction on his websitethat he “was a big believerin libraries and their rolein our cities and towns.”He cited Ohio’s budgetcuts resulting in reductionof services when patronsneeded the libraries themost; and the enjoymentof surprising the librari-ans with the donation asthe reason for offering theauction. “I knew the boardand librarians workedhard without a lot of fund-ing. I wanted to show myappreciation for the workthey do and for the com-munity,” said Scalzi. “And,I wanted to surprise the li-brarians who are lovelypeople which is why I did-n’t tell them.”
“Our library was farfrom quiet when the auc-tion results were re-vealed,” said Cherie Roeth,Bradford library director.“It’s wonderful to have thisdonation in a time whenour budget is shrinkingand demand for our re-sources swells.”
The Bradford Public Li-brary provides informationand resources in printed,audio, electronic, and vi-sual formats along withcomputer access, studyroom, a history room, com-munity room, and specialprograms/events to pa-trons and the publicthroughout Darke andMiami counties and theMiami Valley region.

RUSSIA — Two moremembers of the Russia BoyScoutTroop are nearing thefinal stages of the process toearn the coveted Eaglerank. They will join a longlist of Eagle Scouts from theunit.
Luke Goubeaux, son ofScoutmaster JohnGoubeaux, of Anna, andTheresa Petrocelli, of Sid-ney, completed a project toimprove the buildings in theRussia Community Park.The sophomore at SidneyHigh School will soon be 16.
Goubeaux was contactedby George Epperson, amember of the park board.He explained that therewassufficientwork to be done tothe buildings to warrant aproject.
TheScout beganhis plan-ning and budget process, tosee how much would be re-quired to spruce up shelters,the restroom building andother structures on the parkgrounds. In addition topainting, therewere repairsto the exteriors and replace-ment of some doors. Thedoorswere provided compli-ments of the FrancisSchulze Co., his father’splace of employment. Therefreshment stand receiveda new set of shingles on theroof, along with other over-head repairs.
Some of the structureshad been finished in a redstain. The announcer’sbooth was painted in off-white and blue, and wassimilarly repainted.
Due to the color on the re-maining structures, and thefact that some of the woodtended to absorb a lot ofpaint, the project ended uprequiring more materialsthan originally anticipated.Whenallwas said anddone,17 gallons of gray paintwere applied to the parkstructures.
The entire effort took sev-eralweeks.Most of theworkwas done on weekends,around the busy schedulesof all involved. Goubeauxworks part time at CJ’sHighmarks.
Volunteers assisting onGoubeaux’s project wereSteven Stickel, Phil Stickel,Joey Stickel, Andrew Ball,JordanBall,JohnGoubeauxand Jeff Goubeaux. Theywere joined by DaveBorchers,NickFullenkamp,TylerGoubeaux,GeorgeEp-person and Michael Busse.
Like Goubeaux, Stickelwas notified by the parkboard of a project possibility.He is the son of Phil andRenee Stickel, of Russia.Heis a sophomore at RussiaHigh School.
For his project, Stickelwas asked towork on an en-tirely different type of struc-ture. The park has anenclosed pen for trash bins,but the concrete pad be-neath the receptacle was nolonger large enough, creat-ingmaintenance issues.The
concrete slab upon whichthe trash bins rest needed tobe extended.That would re-quire in an extension of thewooden fence surroundingthe dumpsters as well. Theentire fencingwould thenbepainted to match the rest ofthe park structures. Theproject began the first weekofAugust and was wrappedup in early October.
The new concrete slabwas done quickly.The detailwork on the fence extensionand paintingwasworked inaround the beginning of theschool year.
Stickel is also an accom-plished long-distance run-ner, having gone to the statetournament last year.
Assisting Stickel werePhil Stickel, Joey Stickel,Andrew Ball, Jordan Ball,John Goubeaux. JoeGoubeaux and JeffGoubeaux.Also helping outwere Dave Borchers, NickFullenkamp,GeorgeEpper-son, Michael Busse, LukeGoubeaux, Glen Schulzeand Gary Schulze.
The park board con-tributedmost of themateri-
als to the two projects. Theboys explained that theboard was very anxious tohave the repairs done.
Stickel found that theproject was a good experi-ence that provided thescouts an opportunity togive back to their commu-nity.He enjoys the planningand the chance to showleadership.
Goubeaux said he appre-ciates the recreational as-pect of Scouting but alsolikes the chance to develop
leadership skills and be-come a better person.
Both have been in thescouts since their childhood,and have thoroughly en-joyed the various outingsand opportunities to get to-gether for some fun.
Scoutmaster Goubeauxexpressed that the projectsresulted in needed improve-ments. He emphasized thatmuch work was done andthat many others donatedtheir time to finish thework.

DifferentmindsetPiqua battles Troyto end in 1-0 lossBY ROB KISERSports Editor
TROY — In the lastthree years, the Piquagirls soccer team had beenoutscored 14-1 by Troy, in-cluding losses of 8-0 and 5-1.Saturday night, at Troy
Memorial Stadium was avery different story.And while the Indians
didn’t come away with awin, losing 1-0 to finishthe season 9-6-1, they
head into Thursday’shome tournament gamewith Vandalia-Butlershowing there is a verydifferent mindset withthis team.“I am just so proud of
the girls,” Piqua coachKaren Horvath said. “Now,these girls go in expectingto win these games andthat is obvious by the waythey play.”Troy coach Mike Rasey
took notice.

cluding championship con-tender Will Power, werehurt in the pileup duringLap 13.Weldon was airlifted

OSU runs overIllinois 17-7
�� Football
COLUMBUS (AP) —Somewhere, WoodyHayes was loving it.Just four passes thrown.
No interceptions. No lostfumbles. Running the ballon almost every down.The Buckeyes had 55
plays on Saturday andrushed on 51 of them. Theyardage wasn't startling —211 net yards on theground — but it was thelarger point, that a team inthese days of the read op-tion, the spread and throw-ing the ball around couldbe soooo one-sided in itsattack and still pull out a17-7 win over Illinois, thenation's No. 16 team.
PIQUA DAILY CALL • WWW.DAILYCALL.COM SPORTS Monday, October 17, 2011 13
“”This is Troy-Piqua,”Rasey said. “In all sports,Troy-Piqua is a big rivalry.But I have to give Piqua alot of credit. Piqua has re-ally turned it on in recentyears. They are playingthe game.They are knock-ing the ball around, andthey’ve got some danger-ous players.”In the end, it was one
slip-up, created by Troy’sweapon throw-in’s, LeahSoutar, that was the dif-ference in the battle forsecond-place in theGWOC North.Her flip-throw throw
landed deep in the box —in fact her first one, just25 seconds into the game,appeared to give Troy a 1-0 lead, but it wasn’ttouched before it went intothe goal, wiping out thescore.But, Piqua had no such
luck on one that camewith 19:35 remaining inthe opening half.It landed in front of the
goal and Marisa Mowerywas able to finish.“We knew about Leah
Soutar and what she coulddo,” Horvath said. “Wewere prepared for that.And still, the goal they gotcame on a throw-in.”Luck was not on Piqua’s
side as Lady Indiankeeper Kelsey Deal ap-peared to be in position to
stop the shot.But, it deflected off a
Piqu a player’s leg and ri-chocheted to the left.When Deal went tochange directions, sheslipped a little on the wet
grass, allowing the ball toget into the net.“Kelsey (Deal) was in
the right position,” Hor-vath said. “But, when youput the ball in front of thegoal like that with a lot of
bodies, things are going tohappen.”Troy could not come
close to scoring again, de-spite a number of chancesand it was Piqua whowould mount the
strongest offensive at-tacks the rest of the way.The Lady Indians best
opportunity came midwaythrough the second halfwhen Hannah Strevellsplit two Troy defenders to
create a golden opportu-nity.But, Troy keeper
Amanda Blakeley was upto the challenge.“I really thought that
was going to be the one,”Horvath said. “But, Han-nah (Strevell) did exactlywhat she needed to do.She put the ball on frameand their keeper made anice play on it.”At the 12:23, Strevell
hit a shot from the rightside that looked like itmight be the equalizer be-fore sailing just over thenet.Three minutes later, Di-
anna Burt fired a hardshot on goal that Blakeleywas able to stop on onehop.“We had several good
chances in the secondhalf,” Horvath said. “Wejust couldn’t get one in thenet.”Deal, the GWOC leader
in saves, had 14 for Piqua,while Blakeley had 10 forTroy.Now Piqua turns its
thoughts towards thepostseason.“We need to get ready
for Butler,” Horvath said.“We beat them once andwe have them at home.”Piqua will host the
Lady Aviators at 7 p.m.Thursday at Wertz Sta-dium.
Piqua’s Dianna Burt sends the ball upfield past Natasha Lucas (9) and Kasey Copas (13) Saturday night atTroy Memorial Stadium as Piqua’s Cheryl Bell andTroy coach Mike Rasey watch.

cess Lehman’s ElmerSchlater had as the Cava-lier golf coach, it was onlyfitting that his coachingcareer ended at the Divi-sion III state tournament.The Cavaliers finished
seventh out of 12 team atthe state tournament Fri-day and Saturday on theScarlet Course at OhioState University, with BenThieman finished 13th asan individual to lead theCavaliers.“This was my final
match,” Schlater said afterhis fifth trip to the statetournament. “Age factorsinto it. I will be able tospend more time with mywife and in Florida.“I have been very
blessed at Lehman. All mykids and all my grandkidsbut two graduated fromLehman.“There are a lot of
things to factor in likedriving and travel. It istime to let someoneyounger take over the pro-gram.”Thieman, like all
Lehman golfers, is appre-ciative of everythingSchlater did for them as acoach.“The story for this sea-
son is really coachSchlater,” Thieman said. “Iwas talking to him earlierthis season about it.“I asked him about his
early years as a coach andhe said they really didn’tget to be good until theFridleys (Nate and Wil)came into th program.“I know there have been
other great golfers, likePeter Berlekamp. But,coach Schlater stuck it outand had a lot more successthe last 10 years. He is agreat guy and a greatcoach who leads by exam-ple.”
Schlater remains hum-ble despite takingLehman to district for the11th straight year thisseason.He picked up his
1,000th win in 2010 andnow has more than 1,100wins.He finished his coach-
ing career with exactly200 wins in dual matches.The Cavaliers have fin-
ished as high as fifth atthe state tournament dur-ing his time as coach.“We had another pretty
good year,” Schlater said.“That 200th win was
pretty special.”Lehman finished sev-
enth with a 711 total, oneshot behind GilmourGates Academy.Columbus Wellington
one with a 674 total.“Seventh at state isn’t
bad. We could have fin-ished a couple spotshigher, but the kids playedpretty well.”Thieman was making
his third straight trip tothe state tournament.He led Lehman with
matching rounds of 84 fora 168 total.Tyler Bergman tied for
24th with 87-88 for a 175,finishing his career with a39 on the back nine Satur-day.John Copella shot 86-92
for 178, freshman SamDean had 96-94 for 190and Mitchell Shroyer had115-116 for 231.“I really didn’t feel any
pressure because of what Ihave done in golf,” Thie-man said. “I know what Iam going to do, where Iam going to play golf incollege, wasn’t going to beaffected by what I did atstate.“But, I was trying hard.
I think when I look back, Iwill be disappointed I did-n’t play better at state mysenior year, but I feel goodthat I made it to statethree years in a row.”And he feels like he got
what he could out of hisgame.“I tried really hard to
get the ball in the hole,” hesaid. “I certainly wasn’t ontop of my game.“The Scarlet is the
toughest course we playall year. “When you add the
wind in, with the precisionthat Scarlet demands, youjust really have to battleout there. You just have towork hard to get the ballin the hole.”Thieman played with
individual champion An-drew Bieber of Gates MillsGilmour Academy, whoshot matching 77s.“That was the low
round Saturday,” Thiemansaid. “He is a good putterand he just worked hardto get his ball in the hole.“He is going to be a Di-
vision I golfer. I wish thatcould have been me, but atleast I got to see it.”And be part of
Schlater’s “Grand Finale”.“It is about the golfers,”
Schlater said. “I have al-ways been blessed to havegreat golfers.”They would say the
same about the coach.

The Piqua football teamscored early, often and in avariety of ways in a 75-14romp over Sidney Fridaynight at Alexander Sta-dium/Purk Field.Jon Dembski went 60
yards for a touchdown onPiqua’s first-play fromscrimmage, letting thewinless Jackets know thatwas not about change andthe Battered Helmet wasstaying in Piqua.“You don’t want to over-
look anybody,” Piqua sen-ior Travis Nees. “Jon(Dembski) came out andhad the big run rightaway.”It shattered the mark
for points scored in aPiqua-Sidney game, sur-passing the 57 Sidneyscored in the 1970 game.Piqua had scored 54points in a win over Sid-ney in 1972.Three plays after Dem-
bski’s TD, Solomon Carnesrecovered a fumble on theSidney five and went intothe end zone untouched tomake it 13-0.Piqua’s third TD of the
opening quarter came on a43 yard pass from quar-terback Taylor Wellbaumto sophomore tight endDom Stone, with EvanGrissom’s second PATmaking it 20-0.On the first play of the
second quarter, defensiveend Jordan Feeser inter-cepted a pass at the Sid-ney 26 and returned it 19yards to the Sidney seven.“I did (want to score on
the play),” Feeser said.“Guys told me I broke atackle — then the guy justjumped on my back andbrought me down.”Three plays later,
Feeser caught a 6-yard TDpass from Wellbaum.Tyler Sage scored on a 20-yard reverse, Kindric Linkcaught a 31-yard TD passfrom Wellbaum and RyanHughes ran 12 yards for ascore, making it 47-0 atthe half.Travis Nees started the
second half with an 86-yard kickoff return for atouchdown.“I just saw an opening
and went for it,” he said.
“There is no question wetook out some frustrations(after losses to Trotwoodand Troy). We wanted toshow the kind of team wewere.”The Indians did that in
a big way.“We had a number of
different people score indifferent ways,” Piquacoach Bill Nees said.”Wehad some different people
score and had some defen-sive lineman score.”Wellbaum then found
Sage for a 76-yard TDpass for his second score ofthe night and Grissomkicked his seventh PAT ofthe night.“I knew it (having a big
game was going to hap-pen) sometime,” Sage said.On the TD pass, Sage
caught the ball near thePiqua 35 and won a footrace to end zone.“Once I got past number
4 (Devonte Chambers), itwas open field,” Sage said.“I knew I needed to go.”Piqua’s final two scores
came on four-yard runs byKyle Mills and AustinReedy respectively, withJosh Holfinger kicking thePATs.“The thing is, not only
did our starters play well,but our JVs, who haveonly lost one game, got inthere and played well,”Nees said. “That was thegood thing about it.”Sidney managed two
TDs in the final two min-utes on runs by Kyle Dem-bski and Jordan Fox toavoid the shutout.Wellbaum completed
four of six passes for 156yards and Dembski led abalanced rushing attackwith 117 yards on 11 car-ries as Piqua did not puntin the game.“The Trotwood and Troy
games were two tough,physical games,” Neessaid. “We finally had agame tonight wherethings went our way.”Like never before,

SIDNEY — The finalsix minutes of the secondquarter proved to be thedifference as the DelphosJefferson Wildcats ex-ploded for 21 points overthat span and went on toa 27-7 win over theLehman Cavaliers Fridaynight at Sidney.Lehman falls to 3-5 on
the year heading into an-other home matchupagainst Waynesfield-Goshen next Saturdaywhile Jefferson improvesto 4-4.After a scoreless open-
ing period, Jefferson re-ceived the ball off aLehman punt at the 11:07mark of the second quar-ter, but the possessionlooked nearly over as theWildcats faced a third andnine on their own 11.A 49-yard burst by
Quinten Wessell, however,kept the drive alive andsix more running playsmarched the ball down tothe Lehman six. The Cavalier defense
forced a fourth and four atthe nine as they tackledZavier Buzard for a three-yard loss, but again theWildcats came up with thebig play as quarterbackAustin Jettinghoff found awide-open Tony George fora 7-0 lead with 5:35 re-maining in the period.Following a Lehman
three-and-out, Jeffersonextended the lead to 14-0in just two plays, the finalbeing a 65-yard CurtisMiller touchdown rundown the right side.Another Cavalier three
and out gave the Wildcatsthe ball with just 1:03 left,but that was enough timefor Jefferson’s third score
of the night as four Jet-tinghoff passes netted 70yards, the final being aseven-yard completion toShayn Klinger at the 10.5-second mark to make it21-0 at the break.“We just didn’t play well
in those final minutes ofthe first half and it costus,” said Lehman coachDick Roll. “They had acouple of big runs and wedidn’t respond and makethe plays.”Lehman managed just
two first downs and 18yards of offense in theopening two periods com-pared to 10 first downsand 254 yards for theWildcats, 234 of thosecoming in the second
quarter.The Cavalier offense
lost four yards on its firstseries of the second half,but the second was muchmore successful as an An-drew Gilardi jaunt downthe right sideline for 51yards set up a first andgoal on the four. Two plays later, Skyler
Brown went in from ayard out to put Lehmanon the scoreboard at the43.8-mark of the quarter.A fumble on Jefferson’s
next possession gave theCavaliers the ball on theWildcat 32, but Lehmancould not convert and itremained 21-7 until aMiller four-yard sweep tothe left put the game out
of reach with 5:09 to play.“We had a chance to get
back into the game earlyin the fourth quarter, butjust couldn‘t come up withthe big play when weneeded it,” said Roll. “I ‘mproud of our effort andthat we were able to winthe second half, but weneed to work on gettingbetter.”“Last week we played
well on offense and strug-gled on defense, whiletonight was the opposite.We need to adjust and getbetter.”Jefferson finished with
19 first downs and 348total yards while holdingthe Cavs to six first downsand 80 yards.

NEW PARIS — Thetheme all week for theCovington Buccaneerswas staying focused andplaying hard for 48 min-utes.And the Buccs did just
that, putting together asolid week of practice andcarrying that effort to thefield Friday night in a 70-0 win over National Trail."We knew their (Na-
tional Trail's) record andsometimes the focus canwaver a bit, especiallycoming off some of the biggames we've had the firsthalf of the season," saidCovington coach DaveMiller. "But the focus ofour kids never waveredone bit. We had a goodweek of practice and itcarried over to tonight."The focus carried over
from the opening kickoffas Covington recovered aBlazer fumble and scoredon the very next play onan eight-yard run by AlexBaskerville.National Trail then
fumbled the ball over tothe Buccs again on the en-suing kickoff and with just12 seconds into the gameTrent Tobias put Coving-ton up 14-0 on a one-yardrun.The Buccs then forced a
three-and-out on the nextpossession andBaskerville scored from 25yards out, which made it21-0 with less than 2:00off the clock."We did what good
teams are suppose to do,"Miller said. "We came outand took it to them."The onslaught contin-
ued as Covington scoredtwice more before the firstquarter ended, both com-ing on Isaiah Winstonruns, one from 11 yardsout and the other on a 67-yard run.Leading 35-0 to start
the second quarter, theBuccs kept the pedal tothe medal - scoring threemore times before thehalf.First, Kyler Deeter
capped a Buccaneer drivewith a two-yard run topush the lead to 42-0.Baskerville then fol-
lowed with a 36-yard scor-ing jaunt and a 51-yarddash to push Covington'slead to 56-0 at the break.The junior fullback endedhis night early — alongwith the rest of thestarters — with 147 yardson eight carries and fourtouchdowns.Winston tallied 91
yards on three carries,scoring twice, while Tobiashad 90 yards on five car-ries and a touchdown —
all coming in a 364-yardrushing effort for theBuccs in the first half."We talk all the time
about challenging our-selves, just see how hardyou can go," Miller ex-plained. "I felt the kidswent hard tonight andthere wasn't a lack of ef-fort at all."The effort continued in
the second half as the jun-ior varsity kids took to thefield.Covington's youngsters
moved the opening posses-sion of the second half tothe Blazer five, but turnedthe ball over on downs.Two plays later the de-
fense got into the scoringact as Steven Blei recov-ered a Blazer fumble inthe end zone to push Cov-ington's lead to 63-0.After stuffing National
Trail on the next posses-sion, the Buccs put to-gether an eight-minutesdrive that went into thefourth quarter. Sophomore quarterback
D.J. Jennings capped theeffort with a six-yard runto make the score 70-0."We are challenging
each other in practice anda lot of that has to do withthe younger kids pushingthe guys ahead of them,"said Miller. "It was nice tosee those kids rewardthemselves with a nice ef-fort in the second half."And the effort was dom-
inant throughout as Cov-ington racked up 456yards of offense — all onthe ground — while Na-tional Trail tallied just 17yards of offense and onefirst down.Covington also forced
six Blazer turnovers, fourvia fumble and two on in-terceptions and held a 25-1 advantage in firstdowns."I'm pleased with our
focus and effort tonight,"Miller stated. "The kidsare starting to understandthat this is the way we dothings — go hard on everyplay no matter who weplay."It is the recipe for suc-
cess as Covington im-proves to 8-0 on theseason and 7-0 in theCCC.But Miller and the
Buccs know things gettougher next week withAnsonia coming to town."Ansonia will be an-
other challenge," saidMiller. "They will be readyto play, so we'll have topick it up another notchthis week in practice andbe prepared to play hardfor 48 minutes of Bucca-neer football."Which is the only way
the Buccs know how to dothings.

Cavs lose toWildcats 27-7
14-10 at half.But East’s Kevin Mc-
Maken led the surge inthe second half, scoringthree touchdowns in totalto will East to a victory.“Kevin McMaken had
another strong game run-ning the ball,” Miami Eastcoach Max Current said.“He ran strong all night.”The Railroaders’, how-
ever, wouldn’t go downwithout a fight. Trailinglate in the game, Bradfordmarched down the fieldand scored a touchdown,which was negated due toa holding penalty. TheVikings defense steppedup on the key plays thatfollowed, allowing them toescape with a win.“The guys rose to the oc-
casion tonight,” Currentsaid. “They stepped up onthe ‘money downs’. We gotsome big sacks in key sit-uations. But give Bradforda lot of credit. They are adangerous team.”
Enis reactsIn Curtis Enis' mind,
his team won.The holding call
negated a 24-yard touch-down run by Bradfordrunning back JohnathanBarbee with less than 30seconds left Friday night.had Enis upset with theoutcome and looking for away to console his team.“How do you describe
that? There's no way to de-scribe it,” the Bradfordfootball coach said. “You'vegot the ball at the 20-yardline, take 11 young menout here, and they're fight-ing to get it down in theend zone, and they do, andsomebody takes awayfrom them.“I'm going to stand up
for my kids. I'm going tobe that way til the day Idie in regards to this foot-ball team. These kidsfought all the way to theend.They gave everythingthey've got. And that call
right there just broketheir backs.”Prior to the holding call
that had Enis so upset,Bradford drove 56 yardsin two and a half minutesto set up a first and 10from the Miami East 24-yard line. With the Rail-roaders trailing by sevenpoints, Barbee darted tothe left side and thoughthe Viking defense to whatappeared to be a touch-down to make the score27-26. But the holding callbrought it back, andMiami East's defenseforced two sacks and twoincomplete passes in thefinal 29 seconds to securethe win.While the game will go
down in the record booksas a win for Miami East,Enis told his players theywon the game.“We won the game,” he
said. “There was no hold.It was a perfect block.”At the end of the night,
Enis said he was proud ofhis team.“They fought all the
way down to the end,” hesaid.Bradford fell to 3-5 with
the loss while Miami Eastimproved to 5-3.The Railroaders will
travel to MississinawaValley Friday night, andthe Vikings will play hostto Twin Valley South thesame night.
