Telling The Tri-Countys Story Since 1869

HERALD
Delphos, Ohio

Jays advance in football playoffs, p6A

... a U.S. First Cavalry Division veteran

BY ERIN COX Staff Writer news@delphosherald.com DELPHOS William Lucas had never been around horses as a kid but he learned to like them pretty quickly when he became a horse trainer during his service in the Army. Lucas, 87, was a member of the 1st Cavalry Division from 1945-49, which was the last group of men trained on the horses. When I turned 18, I got my card that said Uncle Sam wants you and they sent me to camp in Indiana and then to Fort Riley in Kansas, he said. In his training, he learned how to rebuild ammunition for the guns and other weapon-related training. He was also trained how to ride and use horses. They were mostly trained already, I would say they trained us, Lucas laughed. Fort Riley had a big place for the horses and their stalls, he reminisced, and he figured there had to be more than a thousand horses. Since Lucas was never around horses before, he was giddy and excited at being around so many and getting to ride them. I always liked cowboy shows, so it was kind of exciting, he said. I was a little scared on the horses at first but I done pretty good. Lucas recalled a time when he had first started riding that caused him to get in trouble by a sergeant. One run off with me because I didnt want to hurt it by pulling on it too hard but thats how you had to stop them and the sergeant wasnt too happy with me, Lucas said as he laughed at the memory.

Library to host Native and First Settlers of Ohio

The Delphos Public Library will welcome Clint Myers from Camp Clay and the Van Wert YMCA for an after-school program for grades K-5 at 4 p.m. Nov. 26. Myers program is titled Native and First Settlers of Ohio. He will share historic artifacts, traditions and ways of survival for that time period. Hell talk about their homes, clothing, food, forms of travel and pioneering spirit. Part of the program will be outside, weather permitting, so the children are encouraged to dress for outdoors. Registration is underway and the group is limited to 30. Call the library at 419-695-4015 to register.

After training, the rest of his unit was sent overseas but at the time, Lucas was in the hospital with yellow fever. When Lucas had recovered, he stayed at Fort Riley where he became a horse trainer. I had two horses I had to take care of and ride them every day, Lucas said. Each day, Lucas would wake up, clean the stalls and saddles, groom the horses and feed them. See CAVALRY, page 12A

My Washington, D.C., vacation trip

BY ANGIE WIECHART For as long as I can remember, I wanted to visit Washington, D.C., to visit all of the memorials such as the Vietnam Wall, Iwo Jima (United States Marine) memorial and Arlington National Cemetery, just to name a few. Many of the senior classes from my high school traveled to Washington, D.C., on their senior class trip. Unfortunately, my class and three classes ahead of mine were denied the trip to Washington, D.C., for reasons that I dont know about. My father was a Vietnam War veteran and I was hoping to get to go to Washington, D.C., with him and my mom as a family. Unfortunately, he passed away before we had that chance. About two years after my Dad died, I was given the opportunity to visit Washington, D.C. As we drove in, I could see from the road the famous Iwo Jima (United States Marine) Memorial statue. We learned at the hotel that we could sign up for a night tour of Washington, D.C., to see all the memorials. It was amazing to see all of these beautiful memorials. It was amazing to see all of these beautiful memorials lit up at night. The best one to visit at night would be the World War II because of the lights reflecting off of the water and just knowing that this memorial was in honor of the Greatest Generation. We didnt get back to our hotel until about 10-10:30 that evening, exhausted but excited. What a great start to the trip. See DC, page 12A

Mostly cloudy today with a slight chance of rain showers in the morning possibly mixed with snow showers and sleet this afternoon. Cloudy with snow showers tonight with snow accumulation less than half an inch. Highs in the upper 40s and lows in the mid 20s. See page 2A.

Delphos Herald reader Tom Odenweller sighted a bald eagle on Sunday. The eagle was first observed landing in a nearby field, apparently hunting for something to eat. The eagle then flew north and perched atop a tree near a pond where ConverseRoselm Road crosses U.S. 30, between Middle Point and Delphos, which is where the picture was taken. After leaving its perch, it then began circling overhead, rising higher and higher, then flying off toward Middle Point. (Photo submitted)

Dogs used for therapy as children read

AKRON (AP) Therapy dogs are often used to visit children in the hospital or seniors in nursing homes. But on a recent Sunday, several therapy dogs were happy to sit still and listen to a good book read by a little companion. Every other Sunday for about seven years, dogs have been visiting the StowMunroe Falls Public Library for an hour in the childrens story time room. Look! Look at the octopus! 3-year-old Aidan Barker of Stow prompted his reading companion. Bucca, an 8-year old Cavalier King Charles spaniel, lifted her head and sniffed at the octopus on the page before putting her head down again while her owner, Trish Miller of Tallmadge, rubbed her belly. As Aidan showed Bucca pictures in his book, Cowboy Octopus, Bucca at times seemed most interested in licking Aidans ear. A few feet away, Emily and Sarah Kos, 7 and 4 years old, were reading books to Mindy, an 8-year-old golden retriever. We dont have a dog, so this fills that requirement of theirs, their mom, Bernadette Kos of Stow, said of the reading opportunity. When the girls had heard that they were coming to the library to read to a dog, they had hoped for a golden retriever, said Kos. Stows program helps children build confidence in their reading ability with an impartial audience, said Kristin Casale, a childrens librarian. The Stow program brings in dogs every other Sunday afternoon. Other libraries also have similar programs, including Tallmadge, Cuyahoga Falls and Hudson, she said. At the Stow library, theres about seven dogs who rotate and come for story time. On one Sunday, four dogs were waiting for some little reading buddies. Casale said theres no advance sign-up for the 15-minute slots and its on a first-come, first-served basis. Some kids have their favorite dog to read to and the dogs arent always available. One dog was out of commission because it was investigating an intense crime, she said. During the summers, the Stow library increases its frequency of the dog story time visits to weekly on Fridays, but for now, its every other Sunday for one hour, Casale said. Dogs are relaxing to children and especially for reading can help children relax to read to a dog, said Miller, whose dog, Bucca, has been a therapy dog since she was 1. Bucca does visits at Robinson Memorial Hospital in Ravenna, group homes and Kent State University. We had one child who would come faithfully with her grandfather and she was a good reader. She stopped coming when she finally got her own dog, said Miller. Another family had two girls, one of whom was afraid of dogs because she had been hurt by one. At first, she was afraid of Bucca, who is a black dog, the same color as the dog who hurt her, but eventually the girl got over her fear through the visits, Miller said. Lauren Barker said her son, Aidan, and his brother, 5-year-old Evan, just happened to come to the library recently when they were told about the dogs in the story time room. Its nice to learn to sit with someone else and read a story and build their confidence and independence, Barker said.

AEP Ohio offers customers incentive to recycle old fridges

Information submitted VAN WERT AEP Ohio is offering a larger incentive for parting ways with that old energy-guzzling refrigerator. Now through Dec. 24, customers will receive $60 when they recycle their old inefficient refrigerators and freezers. In addition to the $60 incentive, customers who have an inefficient refrigerator removed from their home can save up to $150 a year in electricity costs. Relying on technology thats out of date, old refrigerators and freezers can use as much as three times more electricity than newer models built to much higher energy-efficiency standards. There is no better time to clear out space in your garage or basement and make some extra cash, said Dave Tabata, AEP Ohio consumer programs manager. When you combine the extra incentive with the energy savings, the reward really adds up. AEP Ohio makes it simple for customers to save with the convenient pick-up of appliances at no cost. To participate in the program, AEP Ohio customers can simply call 1-877-545-4112, or visit AEPOhio.com/WasteLess. The program is limited to the removal of two units per household. Appliances to be recycled must be in working order, with inside measurements between 10 and 30 cubic feet standard size for most models. Units picked up through the program are transported to an appliance recycling facility operated by JACO Environmental. JACO safely removes hazardous materials from the old energy-guzzlers, reclaiming 95 percent of the materials in the appliances for reuse in manufacturing new products. Even the foam insulation is safely incinerated to generate electricity.

Patrol dogs helping curb drug smuggling

COLUMBUS (AP) The State Highway Patrols use of dogs to sniff out drugs is helping increase drug seizures in Ohio as the patrol works to deter smugglers from moving shipments through the state. Drug seizures on Ohio highways have increased dramatically from 2012, and the patrol says its specially trained dogs are a big part of the reason for that. The seizures have increased compared to 2012 by 137 percent in methamphetamines, 87 percent in cocaine and 25 percent in heroin, The Columbus Dispatch reports. The number of dogs alerting patrol handlers to the presence of drugs has doubled compared to 10 years ago with 32 now on duty. The federal Drug Enforcement Administration has said smugglers are starting to deliberately move drug shipments around rather than through Ohio because of the dogs, according to the newspaper. Were trying to make Ohio unattractive to the business these people bring to our great state, said Patrol Superintendent Paul Pride. The dogs are either Dutch shepherds or Belgian Malinois bought from the Netherlands at a cost of up to about $14,000 each, including initial training. Drug-forfeiture money pays the cost. A patrol sergeant trains each dog to sniff out drugs and explosives and then matches them with one of the trooper handlers responsible for working with the dogs full time. The dogs more than earn their keep by helping prevent dealers from feeding the states drug problem, patrol officials said. Opioids alone were responsible for 1,765 fatal overdoses in Ohio in 2011 One dog sniffed out 52 pounds of cocaine worth an estimated $2 million last month. The cocaine was hidden in a false wall in a tractor-trailer stopped for a turn-signal violation on I-70 in Madison County. The trailer was loaded with humidifiers bound for a retail store in New Jersey.

Olive Branch Church of Gods WCSC auction

Information submitted OHIO CITY The Olive Branch Church of Gods WCSC (Womens Christian Service Council) will hold its annual auction at 7 p.m. today at the Ohio City Community Building. This event is the largest fundraiser for the group. The auction features crafts, baked goods, candy, produce and miscellaneous items. Greif Brothers has also donated a toy box. There is a nice variety of items every year! The monies raised allow the WCSC to support various local charities as well as missions abroad throughout the year. These activities include supporting four local food pantries with food and cash assistance; collecting mit-

tens, gloves, scarves and hats for clients of local food banks; supporting a child through Compassion International; and providing birthday gifts for residents of Colonial Nursing Home and the Mercer County Home. The WCSC has provided financial assistance to local families in need, as well as missionaries for both short term and long term mission projects. The WCSC also supports local entities such as the Pregnancy Life Center, WBCL and WTLW, Channel 44. Many others have been the recipients of the WCSC outreach over the years. DO Strickler has once again graciously donated his auctioneering services for the evening. Refreshments will be provided.

Another dog assisted in seizures of 42 pounds of cocaine and 2 pounds of black-tar heroin in Wood County days earlier. The patrol bought its first six dogs in 1990. They are trained to search for the scents of cocaine, marijuana, heroin and methamphetamine and are rewarded by the handler with their toy usually a piece of PVC pipe pats on the head and encouraging words. Trooper Joshua Beynon handles Miki, who he says is a pet at home. But as soon I put on my uniform, he knows hes working, and hes ready to go out to get the bad guy, Beyon said. Capt. Rick Fambro, criminal-patrol commander and overseer of the canine program, said the dogs elevate the work of the patrol. They can smell and see things and do things a human being cant. Patrol dogs retire typically after eight or nine years of duty, and handlers have the option of keeping them. So far, all have kept their dogs.

WWII reunions poignant for dwindling veterans

DAYTON (AP) Paul Young rarely talked about his service during World War II about the B-25 bomber he piloted, about his 57 missions, about the dangers he faced or the fears he overcame. Some things you just dont talk about, he said. But Susan Frymier had a hunch that if she could journey from Fort Wayne, Ind., with her 92-year-old dad for a reunion of his comrades in the 57th Bomb wing, he would open up. She was right: On a private tour at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force near Dayton, amid fellow veterans of flights over southern Europe and Germany, Young rattled off vivid details of his plane, crewmates, training and some of his most harrowing missions. Dad, you cant remember what you ate yesterday, but you remember everything about World War II, his daughter said, beaming. When Young came home from the war, more than 70 years ago, there were 16 million veterans like him young soldiers, sailors and Marines who returned to work, raise families, build lives. Over the decades, children grew up, married, had children of their own; careers were built and faded into retirement; love affairs followed the path from the altar to the homestead and often, sadly, to the graveyard. Through it all, the veterans would occasionally get together to remember the greatest formative experience of their lives. But as the years wore on, there were fewer and fewer of them. According to the Department of Veteran Affairs, just a little over 1 million remain. The ones who remain are in their 80s and 90s, and many are infirm or fragile. So the reunions, when they are held, are more sparsely attended yearly reminders of the passing of the Greatest Generation. When veterans of the Battle of the Bulge gathered in Kansas City this summer, only 40 came, according to organizers, down from 63 last year and 350 in 2004. Of the 80 members of Doolittles Raiders who set out on their daring attack on Japan in 1942, 73 survived. Seventyone years later, only four remain; they decided this years April reunion in Fort Walton Beach, Fla., would be their last, though they met Saturday for a final toast in honor of those who have gone before them. A half-century ago, when retired Army First Lt. Frank Towers went to his first reunion of the 30th Infantry Division soldiers who landed at the beaches of Normandy and fought across France and Germany he was surrounded by 1,000 other veterans. Now if I get 50, Im lucky, said Towers, who is working on plans for a reunion next February in Savannah, Ga. Age has taken its toll on us. A lot of our members have passed away, and many of them who are left are in health situations where they cant travel. So why persist? Its a matter of camaraderie, Towers said. We spent basically a year or more together through hell or high water. We became a band of brothers. We can relate to each other in ways we cant relate to (anyone else). You werent there. These guys were there. They know the horrors we went through.

Thor: The Dark World bashes box office with $86M

Associated Press Superheroes continue to defeat their foes at the box office. Disneys Thor: The Dark World, earning $86.1 million, dominated the weekend box office as it opened domestically at No. 1, according to studio estimates Sunday. Starring Chris Hemsworth, the Marvel superhero sequel earned $109.4 million when it opened internationally last weekend and $94 million internationally this weekend. Its an extraordinary thing, said Dave Hollis, executive vice president of distribution at Walt Disney Studios. These guys at Marvel have been some of the most consistent when it comes to making movies and creating big events that drive a ton of people to the movie theater. They overdelivered on expectations. However, some observers were expecting the weekend total to reach over $100 million. In limited theaters Thursday evening, Thor: The Dark World brought in $7.1 million overnight. Surpassing the ticket sales of Thor, which scored $65.7 million when it opened in May of 2011, Thor: The Dark World marks a record for a Disney November opening, topping the $70.5 million The Incredibles earned in 2004. But, come Nov. 22, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is predicted to take the No. 1 spot. We have a great little stretch of time prior to Hunger Games, Hollis said. Yes, Hunger Games will do a whole bunch of business, but thats not to say we dont expect to still be a relevant option for consumers that weekend and onto the Thanksgiving weekend that follows. Paramount hidden-camera comedy Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa held the second-place slot at the box office for the second weekend in a row, earning $11.3 million during its third weekend, with a domestic total reaching more than $78 million.

Audiences cant get enough of these films, said box-office analyst Paul Dergarabedian of Rentrak. They are like that guilty pleasure. Its completely unique compared to everything else out there. Relativity Medias 3-D animated kiddie flick Free Birds, soared into third place with $11.2 million in its second weekend. CBS Films Last Vegas, featuring an all-star cast including Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, Morgan Freeman and Kevin Kline, took fourth place in its second weekend. Last weekends box office champ, the sci-fi adaptation Enders Game, starring Harrison Ford, Asa Butterfield and Viola Davis, dropped to fifth place in its second weekend. Once Thor opened, it presented a pretty healthy competitor to all of the movies in the marketplace, Dergarabedian said. Were starting this process of the holiday movie season, which dollar for dollar, is just as important as the summer movie season. In a seven- to eight-week period, we are talking about close to 20 percent of the total-year box office. Expanding to 1,144 theaters in its fourth week, possible Oscar contender 12 Years a Slave brought in an impressive $6.6 million over the weekend at No. 7. In its first weekend The Book Thief, starring Emily Watson, Geoffrey Rush and Sophie Nelisse, had a firm opening with $27,000. It debuted in limited release in just four locations. Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Rentrak. Where available, latest international numbers for Friday through Sunday are also included. Final domestic figures will be released today. 1. Thor: The Dark World, $86.1 million ($94 million international). 2. Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa, $11.3 million ($3.4 million international). 3. Free Birds, $11.2 million ($1 million international). 4. Last Vegas, $11.1 million. 5. Enders Game, $10.2 million ($4 million international). 6. Gravity, $8.4 million ($26.3 million international). 7. 12 Years a Slave, $6.6 million. 8. Captain Phillips, $5.8 million ($7.7 million international). 9. About Time, $5.1 million ($3.1 million international). 10. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2, $2.8 million ($7.7 million international). ANDY NORTH

Venezuelan is the new Miss Universe

MOSCOW (AP) A 25-year-old Venezuelan who appears on TV in her country and is an accomplished flamenco dancer is the new Miss Universe. Gabriela Isler was crowned Saturday night in the pageant at a sprawling exhibition hall on Moscows outskirts. In the excitement just after the announcement, the tiara fell off Islers head as she was being crowned by Miss Universe 2012, Olivia Culpo of the United States. Isler caught the crown laughing. Patricia Rodrigues of Spain was the runner-up. The panel of judges was led by American rock musician Steven Tyler. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro congratulated Isler on Twitter, calling her title a triumph for Venezuela, a country that has now won three of the last six Miss Universe pageants. In fact, Venezuela has won more major international beauty competitions than any other nation, and beauty pageants rank alongside baseball as the countrys most-followed diversion, one that transcends social class and normally insurmountable political divisions. A whole industry of grooming schools, plastic surgeons and beauty salons has emerged to prepare young women for the thousands of pageants that take place each year around the country in schools, army barracks and even prisons. Venezuela has managed to keep its beauty queen industry flourishing, despite economic problems have worsened in recent weeks as inflation touched a two-decade high of 54 percent and shortages of basic goods like toiled paper and milk have worsened. Driving the crisis has been a collapse in the currency, which has plunged to a tenth of its official value in illegal black market trading. To arrest the fall, Maduro last week ordered the military to inspect prices and shut down businesses found to be charging abusive prices. A day after the government seized control of a nationwide chain of appliance stores, doors reopened Saturday to throngs of shoppers seeking to buy TVs, washing machines and refrigerators at a fraction of their listed price. -

Medical Reserve Corps to meet

Information submitted The Van Wert County Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) is a national network of local groups of volunteers committed to improving the public health, emergency response, and resiliency of their communities. Disasters know no boundaries. Emergency situations do not see the county line and stop just short. It is taught that preparedness is local; each jurisdiction must be prepared to meet the needs of its area post disaster or emergency. While that does hold true, we are also people who desire to reach out to our neighbors to lend a helping hand when needed. To be able to assist our neighbors, we have to speak the same language. It is difficult to help someone if you do not know what actions are needed. Preparedness planning is never finalized nor complete, and there is always a need for additional community volunteers that are medical and non-medical residents whom have an interest with the Van Wert County Medical Reserve Corps Volunteer Group. The next volunteer meeting will take place on Tuesday beginning at 6 p.m. for new volunteers and 7 p.m. for existing volunteers at the Van Wert County Health Department located at 1179 Westwood Dr., Suite 300, Van Wert.. Should you have any additional questions in regards to the Van Wert MRC Volunteer Group, please contact Mariea Moreland at the Van Wert County Health Department (mmoreland@ vanwertcountyhealth.org) or (419) 238-0808/ext: 111

Jays use big plays to oust Vikings in regional quarterfinals

By JIM METCALFE Staff Writer jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com LEIPSIC Eighth-seeded St. Johns went on the road to top-seeded Leipsics John Edwards Field Saturday night in an OHSAA Region 24 quarterfinal playoff grid contest and used the big play to slug the host Vikings 33-18. The Blue Jays (7-4) ran off 40 plays to the Vikings (8-3) 65 but outgained their foe 420-323. The Jays advance to take on Tiffin Calvert (7-4) a 34-31 conqueror of Edon 7 p.m. Saturday at Findlays Donnell Stadium. Were not a big-play team; were a grindit-out offense. We prefer to get shorter gains and put together good drives, St. Johns head coach Todd Schulte said. We only had 19 plays the first half 18 runs and an interception. I felt that our offensive line really started to gain control of the line of scrimmage in the second quarter and I felt we started to wear on them then, as well as later in the game. With our running backs, all we try to get them to do is square their shoulders and run north and south; theyre pretty good if we can get them that space and Nick (Martz) is a great complement. The first big play came on just the second play from scrimmage. After Leipsic kicker Dylan Schey knocked the kickoff out of bounds, giving the Jays possession at the 35. Junior quarterback Martz (9 rushes, 80 yards) ran for six, then faked senior fullback Luke MacLennan over right guard, kept it himself, found the hole to the outside and outran the defense to the sideline and the pylon just 49 ticks into the contest. On the conversion try, the snap was high and the 2-pointer failed for a 6-0 Jays lead. Leipsic responded as a 21-yard kickoff return by Nate Brecht put the ball at the 31. Behind junior scatback Jordan Chamberlin (25 rushes, 125 yards) and senior quarterback Zac Kuhlman (8 rushes, 51 yards; 10-of-23 passing, 91 yards), they moved to the St. Johns 3 in 11 plays for a 1st-and-goal but a dropped pitch set them back and an incompletion on fourth down gave the Jays the ball back on downs at the 14. However, on the third play from scrimmage at the 15, Kuhlman picked off a Martz pass (into the wind) and returned it 28 yards to the 1. From there, Chamberlin burst in off the gap. On a 4th-and-1 at the 44, once the 5-8 Chamberlin broke the line of scrimmage off left guard, he was gone to the house. The 2-point pass was awry as the Vikings closed within 27-12 with 9:33 left in the third stanza. The Jays had a 3-and-out, while the hosts next series also ended in a punt. The visitors commenced at the 30. Jettinghoff ran for three, then MacLennan took a handoff off left guard and would not go down, emerged out of traffic and headed for the end zone. The kick was blocked as the Jays led 33-12 with 3:32 left in the third. The next Leipsic drive ended up with a pick by sophomore Jordan Mohler of a deep Kuhlman aerial at the Jays 5. The Blue and Gold did get out of trouble with a first down but had to punt. Starting at the visitor 47, Leipsic finished off the game and its season with a 9-play drive. At the 5, Chamberlin capped his hat trick with a run off left guard with 7:08 showing. The 2-point pass failed to account for the final score.

(Delphos Herald/Larry Heiing). left guard for the six. The 2-point pass failed as the game was tied at 6-6 with 3:12 to go in the opener. Senior Cody Loosers 7-yard return on the kickoff gave the Jays the ball at the 39. From there, senior tailback Tyler Jettinghoff (20 totes, 150 yards) took a handoff off left guard and immediately headed to the outside; he stiff-armed a defender and found the sideline, getting a final block to end up in the end zone. Ben Wrasman added the point-after as the Jays took the lead for good at 13-6 with 2:52 left in the first canto. The Vikings gained two first downs on their next drive but punted away, with Kuhlmans 27-yard boot pinning the Blue and Gold at the 15. No matter. A riveting 80-yard by the third member of the 3-headed Blue Jay backfield, MacLennan (9 rushes, varsity career-high 172 yards) got them out of trouble and on the fifth play from the Leipsic 2, Jettinghoff all but walked in off left guard. Wrasmans PAT made it 20-6 with 8:28 left in the first half. Leipsic again tried to answer and gained a pair of first downs but once more had to punt; Kuhlman dropped the snap and got tackled at the Leipsic 42. Three plays hence at the 8, Martz faked MacLennan off left guard, took one step more and found the hole to the end zone. Wrasman made it 27-6 with 3:39 to go in the half. After a 3-and-out by Leipsic, a holding call on the next Blue Jay series short-circuited any chance to add to the lead to end the half. Defensively, outside of a couple of drives, we did a nice job containing a balanced offense, Schulte added. In our league, weve faced a few quarterbacks like Kuhlman that can beat you through the pass and the run, so weve had good preparation for it. We contained him pretty well. The one thing that concerned me was the penalties, especially the second half. We have to clean that up as we move on. Starting from the 20, Leipsic opened the second half with a 5-play drive overcoming two 5-yard penalties and benefiting from a pass interference call on its foe to shorten

Local Round Up

Information Submitted Beavers shock 9th-ranked Franklin By Evan Skilliter Sports information assistant BLUFFTON The Beavers of Bluffton University shocked the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference and the pollsters around the country by taking down the #9-ranked Franklin College Grizzlies on Saturday. A late 44-yard touchdown grab by Donovan Brown broke a 17-17 tie and helped the Beavers cap their first win over a top-10 opponent in school history, 24-17. Those 17 points are the fewest the Grizzlies offense, which averaged 51.3 points per game heading into Saturday, has scored all year, including contests with #1 Mount Union and Butler University. The defensive efforts of Mike Shroyer and Josh Runda (Lima/Bath) were a huge factor as both seniors racked up 16 tackles on Senior Day. Bluffton got on the board first after senior Shawn Frost caught a screen pass from freshman quarterback Connor Sheehan and took it 73 yards to paydirt. Sophomore Zach Rader converted the PAT and the Beavers took a 7-0 lead into the second quarter. In the second period, Rader answered a Franklin field goal with one of his own, connecting from 25 yards out to give the Beavers a 10-3 spread at the 6:08 mark. Franklin answered with 22 seconds left in the half on a Jonny West rush from nine yards out to knot the score at 10-10 heading to the break. Bluffton held Franklin scoreless again in the third quarter and took the lead after Sheehan went in from a yard out on a quarterback sneak which helped the Beavers to a 17-10 lead heading into the final 15 minutes of action. It wasnt until late that Franklin finally tied the score again when Kole Stogner found the end zone on a 3-yard run with 3:44 remaining in the game. The Beavers only ran 1:43 off the clock before having to punt the ball, giving the Grizzlies possession on their own 26 with 1:57 on the clock and three timeouts remaining. West completed 4-of-5 passes to help Franklin get to their own 45 before the quarterback fumbled a snap into the arms of Bluffton defensive end Ryan Leopold (Ottawa/Ottawa-Glandorf), giving the Beavers possession on their own 47 with 1:04 left on the clock. After an incomplete pass on the first play of the drive and a 13-yard toss to senior C.J. Sewell (Lima/Shawnee) on the second, Sheehan heaved a long ball down the left side of the field for a closely-guarded Brown. The defender got a hand on the ball but it bounced Browns way and landed safely in his arms as he carried it across the goal line for the go-ahead touchdown. Senior Austin Sweeney converted the extra point to cap a crazy drive, putting the Beavers ahead 24-17 with just 27 ticks left on the clock. West completed two short passes to All-American Kyle Linville, moving the Grizzlies to their own 48 with six seconds left and time for just one play. West took the snap and rolled to his right, only to be chased down by freshman lineman Linkoln LaRoche (Dola/Hardin-Northern) for a 14-yard sack with no time left on the clock, helping the Beavers become the first team to hand Franklins seniors a Heartland Conference loss in four seasons. Sheehan finished the day completing 23-of-38 passes for 260 yards and two touchdowns. Frost and Brown hauled in five of those passes apiece. Frost finished with 126 yards and a touchdown, while Brown chipped in with 86 yards and the game-winning touchdown. Sheehans two TD passes helped him add to Blufftons single-season record as the Beavers have 22 now with one game to play. Eric Fox led the Beaver rushing attack with 26 yards on 15 carries. The junior also added 21 receiving yards on eight receptions. Aside from Shroyer and Runda, junior Wyatt Herman and sophomore Ryan Aelker had big defensive days while constantly pressuring West, racking up 10 and nine tackles, respectively. Travaun Reeves finished with six tackles and a big interception that he returned 25 yards, while Leopold, Ben Schamp (St. Marys/Memorial) and Josh Hadley also recovered fumbles for the victors.

Bengals come up short in OT, lose 20-17 to Ravens

By DAVID GINSBURG Associated Press BALTIMORE A second straight overtime loss reinforced for Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton just how slim the difference is between winning and losing in the NFL. Cincinnati rallied from a 17-point deficit and forced overtime on a desperation heave from Dalton to A.J. Green on the final play of regulation Sunday. But the Baltimore Ravens bounced back in overtime and won 20-17 on a 46-yard field goal by Justin Tucker with 5:27 left in the extra session. The spirited comeback, the 51-yard TD pass to Green and a tremendous performance by Bengals linebacker Vincent Rey all went for naught as Cincinnati (6-4) missed an opportunity to all but oust the defending Super Bowl champion Ravens (4-5) from the AFC North race. It was the second straight overtime loss for the Bengals, who were coming off a 22-20 defeat at Miami. We were close today, Dalton lamented. Weve been close in these overtime games. Weve got to whatever we can to make one more play, put ourselves in a better position where we can score and have a chance to not let the other team have it. Again, it didnt happen today. The Bengals were hurt by nine penalties totaling 134 yards, five sacks and three interceptions. We hurt ourselves a lot with penalties this game and we couldnt catch a break, coach Marvin Lewis said. In the first half, it was just incredible. Ive never seen a run of penalties so one-sided. The Ravens won with only 189 yards of offense. Joe Flacco threw two interceptions and lost a fumble and Ray Rice gained a mere 30 yards on 18 carries. Sometimes you have to win by any means necessary, Rice said. Winning heals a lot. Now weve got to get on a roll to get back where we want to be. Dalton went 24-for-51 for 274 yards as the Bengals lost to Baltimore for the fifth time in six games. On the last-second heave in regulation, Green positioned himself behind the pack and caught the deflection after it flicked off the hand of Ravens safety James Ihedigbo, who earlier had the first two interceptions of his career. I was just looking for someone to tap the ball so I could catch it, Green said. The Bengals won the toss before overtime and moved to the Baltimore 33 before Giovani Bernard caught a short pass, reversed field and was tackled for an 11-yard loss on fourth down. Baltimore then got a pair of first downs before Tucker kicked the winner. With 151 yards receiving, Green set a franchise record with his fifth straight 100-yard game. And, making his second start of the season, Rey had 13 tackles, three sacks and his first career interception. All of it occurred in a losing effort. A gusty afternoon proved troublesome for the Bengals. Mike Nugent missed a 42-yard field goal into the wind and Dalton repeatedly overthrew his receivers. In the second quarter, Ihedigbo picked off a high pass and returned it 37 yards to set up a touchdown for a 17-0 lead. Baltimore mustered only 94 yards in offense before halftime but took advantage of Bengals miscues to put together scoring drives of 53, 58 and 11 yards. Cincinnati had more penalty yards than total offense (114-102) in the first half,and Dalton was 8-for-21 for 47 yards and an interception. The Bengals opening possession ended with a failed fourth-and-1 gamble at the Baltimore 47. Flacco immediately went long. Although he underthrew Jacoby Jones, a pass interference call against Reggie Nelson covered 48 yards. On third down, Dallas Clark caught a 1-yard pass in the end zone the Ravens only first-quarter touchdown since the season opener. Baltimore quickly got the ball back and a facemask penalty against Cincinnatis Chris Crocker contributed to a 58-yard drive that ended with a field goal to make it 10-0. Things didnt get better for the Bengals. Nugent shanked a field-goal try to the left and Ihedigbos first interception set up a 7-yard touchdown pass to Torrey Smith. Cincinnati converted only 5-of-19 third-down plays but was 3-for-5 on fourth down. Notes: Not only did Ihedigbo get two INTs but tied with Daryl Smith for the team lead with nine tackles. Daltons run of four straight 300-yard games ended. Baltimore is 9-1 at home in November since 2008.

Johnson widens points lead on Kenseths bad day

Associated Press AVONDALE, Ariz. Matt Kenseth had one of those rare seasons in which everything seemed to go right every time he got behind the wheel of his car. Until the one day he couldnt afford for anything to go wrong. Kenseth had one of his poorest performances of the season Sunday, finishing 23rd at Phoenix International Raceway to allow Jimmie Johnson to seize control of the championship race. Johnson, who started the day up seven points in the standings, finished third behind Kevin Harvick and Kasey Kahne to pad his lead to 28 points. The 5-time champion goes to next Sundays season finale at Homestead needing to finish 23rd or better to win the title. Kenseth, who won his only championship 10 years ago, gave what sounded like a concession speech following his disappointing day. Of course Im disappointed we go there basically without a shot to win, Kenseth said. On the other hand, I couldnt be happier and more proud of my team and, man, this has been the best year of my racing career. We hoped to go down to Homestead and race for it on performance. On the other hand, Im extremely happy and really, really proud of my team. Theres not a car out here Id rather be driving. Weve had just an amazing, incredible season and weve still got one week left. So Im really thankful for them putting me in a car and everybody who has given me this opportunity. Johnson, who had a mechanical failure in last years season finale and finished 36th, wasnt ready to claim the title following his workmanlike performance at Phoenix. Were heading into Homestead in the position we want to be in, Johnson said. Ill have to go down there and run 400 miles. Its far from over. Youve got to finish that race. Although we have a nice cushion, we still have to go down there and take care of business. Harvick won at Phoenix for the second consecutive year, capitalizing when Carl Edwards ran out of gas coming to the white flag. But all eyes were on Kenseth, who struggled mightily for the first time in the Chase for the Sprint Cup Championship and for one of the few times this season. Kenseth had only finished lower than 23rd four times this entire season and three were related to either engine failure or a crash. But his car was off from the very start,and he struggled to even tell crew chief Jason Ratcliff what adjustments to make on a Toyota he described at one point as just not drivable. Figuring track position and clean air was the only fix, Ratcliff opted for a strategy of having Kenseth do the opposite of other drivers: If they pitted, Kenseth did not, and vice versa. It worked

See ROUND UP, page 7A

as Kenseth cracked the top 10 but then backfired badly on a pit stop at the worst possible time. Moments after contact between Johnson and Edwards knocked Johnson out of the groove and forced him to save his Chevrolet from wrecking, a caution was called for Josh Wises spin. The Joe Gibbs Racing crew botched the pit stop, changing strategy mid-stop, and Kenseth compounded the problem by running over his air hose. His car had to be backed up before it could be serviced. It dropped him to 30th, two laps down, and he restarted behind Johnson at the one opportunity hed had to make up some ground. I called left sides trying to get some track position and I looked up and there werent many cars coming down pit road, so I thought we might as well put four on it, Ratcliff said. But when I called four, those guys had left-side tires in their hands and half of them went over the wall and had to come back to get the right-side tires. Its just a mess.

Associated Press ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. Chris Kirk survived a wild back nine Sunday to win the McGladrey Classic, thanks to one big mistake by Briny Baird that kept him winless in 365 starts on the PGA Tour. Kirk closed with a 4-under 66 for his second career win, though he received plenty of help from Baird. They were tied for the lead playing the 18th hole at Sea Island when Baird drove into a fairway bunker, the ball blow his feet. He topped a 4-iron that went about 90 yards and into a hazard. Kirk only had to make par for a 1-shot win over Baird (67) and Tim Clark (62). The victory sends Kirk to the Masters for the first time. He had been living at Sea Island for the last six years until moving back to Atlanta. It was a crushing loss for Baird, who now has six runner-up finishes since the 41-year-old first joined the PGA Tour in 1999. Kirk finished at 14-under 266. AUSTRALIAN PGA CHAMPIONSHIP GOLD COAST, Australia Masters champion Adam Scott won the storm-delayed Australian PGA in his first home event since winning at Augusta National, beating American Rickie Fowler by four strokes. Scott finished with a 4-under 67 at Royal Pines for a 14-under 270 total. Fowler shot 68. Scott and Fowler marked their balls on the 12th fairway after a severe storm warning suspended play with Scott holding a 1-shot lead. When Scott returned, his iron shot from the fairway nearly holed out for an albatross and he made the 1-foot eagle putt. Scott moves on to Royal Melbourne next week to defend his Australian Masters title. He will play with Jason Day on the Australian team at the World Cup, also at Royal Melbourne, then play at the Australian Open at Royal Sydney a week later. TURKISH AIRLINES OPEN ANTALAYA, Turkey Frances Victor Dubuisson won the inaugural Turkish Airlines Open for his first European Tour title, beating Wales Jamie Donaldson by two strokes. Dubuisson closed with a 3-under 69 to finish at 24-under 264. Donaldson had a hole-in-one at the 16th in a 63. Tiger Woods and Justin Rose tied for third, four shots back. Woods, who wont play again until the World Challenge on Dec. 5 in Thousand Oaks, Calif., shot 67. Rose had a 65. LEGENDS TOUR OPEN PALM HARBOR, Fla. Laurie Rinker won the season-ending Legends Tour Open on Sunday, parring the final hole for a 1-stroke victory over Trish Johnson, Lorie Kane and Barb Mucha. After opening with a 6-under 67 to take a 3-stroke lead, the 51-year-old Rinker a 2-time winner on the LPGA Tour had a 74 on Sunday to finish at 5-under 141 on Innisbrook Resorts Island Course. She earned $30,000. Mucha had a 69 and Johnson and Kane shot 72. MIZUNO CLASSIC SHIMA, Japan Taiwans Teresa Lu won the Mizuno Classic, birdieing the last two holes and six of the final eight for a 2-stroke victory. The 25-year-old Lu, a regular on the Japan LPGA Tour after giving up her LPGA Tour membership in 2010, shot an 8-under 64 in windy, wet conditions at Kintetsu Kashikojima. She finished at 14-under 202 and earned $180,000 for her first professional title. South Koreas Chella Choi, tied with Lu with two holes to play, had a 66 to finish second. American Stacy Lewis, the 2012 winner, tied for eighth at 7 under after a 70. Brittany Lincicome, a stroke behind second-round leaders Higa, Ichinose and Oyama entering the day, had a 77 to tie for 29th at 2 under.

Round up

(Continued from page 6A)

Although the Grizzlies racked up 463 yards of offense, the Bluffton defense came up huge with four takeaways and nearly a fifth if not for a penalty on the other side of the field that negated a fumble recovered by the Beavers late in the fourth quarter. The Beaver victory will likely force Franklin to defeat rival Hanover College next Saturday to claim a slice of its fifth consecutive Heartland Conference title (with Rose-Hulman) and berth in the NCAA Division III tournament. The Beavers (3-6, 3-4) will play their final game of the season next week in Defiance at 1:30 p.m., looking to finish at an even 4-4 mark in the conference. Bluffton has had the upper hand recently, winning the last three contests with the rival Yellow Jackets. Beavers earn finals of HCAC volleyball tourney By Brittany Roth Sports information assistant DEFIANCE After defeating #3 seed Mount St. Joseph Lions in Cincinnati on Tuesday, the Beavers traveled to Defiance ready to take on Transylvania, the #2 seed of the HCAC volleyball tournament. With the #1 seed and host Defiance College already dispatched from the tournament thanks to a sweep by Hanover College in the 2 p.m. semifinal, Bluffton made sure that none of the top four seeds will earn the HCACs automatic berth into the NCAA Regionals next week. The Beavers again rallied from a 2-0 deficit while improving to 15-18 on the season. Bluffton got the hogs share of its errors out in the lidlifter, allowing Transylvania to dominate the first set by a 25-11 count. The second set was back and forth with 10 tie scores and five lead changes. The Beavers were knotted at 23, but could not close the set out against the Pioneers and lost 25-23. Not ready to put away the net for 2013, the Beavers bounced back to gain control of the majority of the third set. With the help of a run with Brooke Ruffer at the service line, the Beavers took the lead halfway through and stayed focused to take the third set 25-21. The fourth set was another battle with 17 tie scores and five lead changes. After a late timeout by Coach Yarnell with the score squared up at 23, Bluffton capped the set with a Lauren Weisgarber kill and a block by Mackenzie McFarlin and Jenny Brown (St. Marys/ Memorial) which pushed the match to a fifth-set tie-breaker. The Beavers took the momentum from the end of the fourth set and carried it over into the fifth set, going on a 5-0 spurt with senior Hailey Phillips at the service line. The teams battled for several rotations but another run by Phillips at the end of the set clinched it for the Beavers. Bluffton won the fifth set 15-7 to knock the #2 seed out of the tournament. Ruffer had a phenomenal night on the court with a career-high 16 kills (.414 hitting percentage), 23 assists, three aces and 11 digs for a triple-double. Also sparking the offense was fellow sophomore Sara Roth with 19 assists. Kendra Parmenter and McFarlin were both in double figures with 13 and 10 kills, respectively. Parmenter also had two solo blocks and four block assists. Weisgarber matched Ruffers three aces and also assisted with five blocks for the Beavers. Defensively, Phillips led Bluffton with 18 digs.

Typhoon survivors in DC Philippines struggle for aid (Continued from page 1A)
TACLOBAN, Philippines (AP) Rescuers faced blocked roads and damaged airports today as they raced to deliver desperately needed tents, food and medicines to the typhoondevastated eastern Philippines where thousands are believed dead. Three days after the Typhoon Haiyan ravaged the region, the full scale of the disaster was only now becoming apparent. Authorities estimated that up to 10,000 people may have died. In the city of Tacloban, corpses hung from trees and were scattered on sidewalks. Many were buried in flattened buildings. This area has been totally ravaged, said Sebastien Sujobert, head of the International Committee of the Red Cross in Tacloban. Many lives were lost, a huge number of people are missing, and basic services such as drinking water and electricity have been cut off. He said both the Philippine Red Cross and the ICRC offices in Tacloban had been damaged, forcing staff to relocate temporarily. Haiyan hit the eastern seaboard of the Philippines on Friday and quickly barreled across its central islands, packing winds of 235 kph (147 mph) that gusted to 275 kph (170 mph), and a storm surge of 6 meters (20 feet). It inflicted serious damage to at least six of the archipelagos more than 7,000 islands, with Leyte, Samar and the northern part of Cebu appearing to bear the brunt of the storm. About 4 million people were affected by the storm, the national disaster agency said.

Health laws troubles give GOP a much-needed boost

WASHINGTON (AP) The health care laws seemingly endless problems are giving congressional Republicans a much-needed boost of energy, helping them to move past the governmentshutdown debacle and focus on a theme for next years elections. Republicans are back on offense, and more quickly than many had expected, after seeing their approval ratings

Answers to Saturdays questions: It is true that Robert E. Lee was offered command on both sides in the Civil War. Although he opposed slavery and secession and believed the South could not win, his loyalty to his home state of Virginia led him to accept the Confederate command. A cats purr, in addition to being a sign of contentment, is a signal, a homing call cats learn early. At first, they feel only the vibration of a purr when their mother cat uses it to bring them to feed. Later, cats learn to use it to indicate fear and distress as well as pleasure. Todays questions: Can creatures besides humans get a sunburn? Do fish sleep? Answers in Wednesdays Herald.

Trivia

plunge during last months partial shutdown and worrisome talk of a possible U.S. debt default. They pillory administration officials at Capitol Hill hearings. They cite the millions of people getting dropped by insurers despite President Barack Obamas promise that it wouldnt happen. They harp on the programs flawed enrollment process.

The next day we woke up early and got ready to head into the city. Our hotel was only about a 10-minute walk to the Iwo Jima Memorial. When I saw this huge bronze statue, it almost took my breath away. The Iwo Jima Memorial is the worlds largest bronze statue and depicts one of the famous photographs in history that of the six brave young soldiers raising the American Flag at the top of a rocky hill on the island of Iwo Jima, Japan, during World War II. I learned from our tour the night before that if you start at the front of the statue and walk around to the back you could see the flag being raised up. As I walked all the way around, on the right side of the statue I saw an inscription that read: Uncommon valor, was a Common Virtue. I felt that this was something our military men and women still carry with them today. Finally, we made it to the city and instantly went to the Vietnam Memorial area. The first thing I saw was the bronze statue of the three soldiers that represented the three main races of Americans that served during the Vietnam War. While I was looking at the statue, three men walked up that I instantly knew they were Vietnam veterans. As I was watching and admiring in awe of these three that served our country with pride, they did something that took my breath away. Each man walked up to the statue, rendered a hand salute and then turned away slowly with tears in their eyes. To the left of the statues was a small memorial that many people do not know of, unless they are one of the many Vietnam veteran families that are affected by it. This is the monument that is there to honor and remember all of the Vietnam veterans that were able to return home but later died as a result of service-connected illness or injury from their time in service. I knelt down by this memorial and gently pulled out a beautiful red rose from the bouquet we brought. I placed the rose by the memorial in memory of my Dad, who died two years ago due to esophageal cancer and complications from Malaria that he had contracted while serving in Vietnam. We slowly walked up the path to the Vietnam Wall, determined to find the name of my dads war buddy. The whole time looking at these names I was thinking Why? There are over 50,000 names on

that black granite wall. Over 50,000 young men that lost their lives too soon in the most controversial war in this countrys history. Then I thought about all of the men who came home to a country that turned its back on them. These brave men at the time were just young men. Many of these men were spat on and called baby killers because they only did what their country and government asked them to do. Many but not all of these men were mentally scarred for life after the way they were treated when they came home from the war. Still many of these men would go back to serve our country again for our freedom, if ever called upon again. My dad said that he would go back again in a heartbeat if ever needed to keep our countrys freedoms. Finally, after what seemed like forever we found his name: William H. Thigpen. This man served alongside my dad during the war. William was killed a day or two before he was able to return home. I knelt down and placed the red roses under his name. I stood up and gently placed my hand on the hot, black granite wall next to his name. I saw my own reflection bouncing off the wall staring back at me. Then all of a sudden a gentle breeze broke through the hot, humid day and moved my hair and sent a sense of peace through me. I knew at that instant that my dad and William were both with me at that moment. As mom and I turned to walk away from the wall, I remembered something my dad said many times to me, The heroes of the war were the men that did not come home, Did Not Come Home. The names of over 50,000 young men on that black granite wall at Washington, D.C., are the true heroes of the Vietnam War. All I could think of after that was Dad now I know, now I understand what you meant by saying the 50,000 names on the wall being the heroes of the war. Your friend William was one of the heroes of the war, but you will always be my hero for the person that you were, how you treated everyone you met and everyone around you. Everyone including myself respected you for who you were and how you respected others. You still are a hero for what you gave for us and this country and paying the ultimate price, for serving many years later You are and always will be my hero; I love you and miss you every day. The last place we went to

before going back to the hotel was Arlington National Cemetery. To finally get to see this hallowed and sacred ground is beyond what words can express. As we walked into the cemetery all I could see was white, marble tombstones everywhere. Too many of our young men and women have lost their lives to war. There are funerals held everyday at the cemetery. I could hear the pops from the rifle fire from the firing party of a funeral taking place. I could also hear Taps faintly being played in the distance. That hollow sound of Taps sent chills down my spine and will always cause tears to roll down my face. We talked to a man that worked at the cemetery; he informed us there were 22 funerals that took place on that day. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was also very neat to see. The tomb guard will always have my respect for the job that they do so well. It could easily be seen how these men take their job as a tomb guard very seriously. They were so precise on how they clicked their heels and how their rifle always remained on the shoulder farthest away from the tomb. These men kept guard over the tomb during Hurricane Sandy and on 9-11 when he Pentagon was hit by the plane; They remained at the tomb doing their duty. As we left the cemetery I realized once again that freedom is not free. Every day, someone is paying the ultimate sacrifice to keep this beautiful country free The trip to Washington, D.C., was an incredible experience and one that I wont soon forget. I hope to go back again sometime, maybe if my dad gets inducted into the In Memory Program that the Vietnam veterans Memorial Fund holds. This program honors the veterans that died from an illness that was a result of the Vietnam War, but whose deaths do not fit the criteria to be included on the Vietnam Wall. The In Memory Program honors the sacrifices these veterans and their families made. Each year on Flag Day, they honor these fallen veterans and their families at the In Memory Day Ceremony. Only time will tell if this is a possibility. Until then I will always be proud of my dad for his service to our country and I will always remember and keep him in my prayers and all of the men and women who are still fighting to keep us free. God Bless them all and God Bless America!

(Continued from page 1A) We fed them oats every day, he said. Thats what they liked so thats about all they ate. Some days Lucas also had to put horseshoes on the horses. I was afraid they were going to kick me, Lucas remembered. You had to raise their leg up and hold it between your legs, so I was worried itd hurt them and theyd kick me right then. He never got kicked and he was surprised to find out that nailing in the horseshoe didnt hurt them. After prepping the horses in the morning, Lucas would then take them out to the sergeants who would ride them around for the day and sometimes Lucas would ride the horses in parades. The horses were so smart, Lucas said. The sergeant would just say, Right turn, left turn and the horses would just turn right or left, whatever he said. We got pretty proud of them after taking care of them. He ended up really liking the horses he took care and he said it was fun. His last year in the Army, the Cavalry ended as the Army transitioned to mechanized transportation and the horses were sold. Lucas had to join another troop and start a new job. He decided to put in for cooking and ended in the mess hall for the men at Fort Riley. After his service, Lucas went home to Troy, where he started working at a junk yard operating a crane, which he did for 25 years. Now, he resides in Delphos with his son, Chris.
