PAULDING The Paulding County
Commissioners have passed a resolution that
will reshape the structure of the County
Emergency Management Agency (EMA).
Under the new structure, longtime EMA di-
rector Randy Shaffer has been reappointed to
his position. The original EMA board has
been dissolved and Shaffer will working with
an advisory committee consisting of one
commissioner, all county fire chiefs, sheriff,
one representative of the township trustees
and one representative of village mayors.
Commissioner Tony Zartman stated that
the resolution was effective as of Sept. 4.
The resolution puts Randy as a county em-
ployee answering directly to the commission-
ers, said Zartman. On Sept. 4, the resolution
withdrew the County Board of EMA to reor-
ganize the county office under the commis-
sioners resolution. That makes Randy a di-
rect employee of the commissioners office.
Commissioner Roy Klopfenstein said that
the action makes Paulding County the 60th
county in the state (out of 88) that has gone to
this type of an arrangement.
Zartman said that Shaffer will be consid-
ered a salaried employee whose work defini-
tion is a minimum 32 hours of employment
on a weekly basis.
This allows him to do what he needs to do
to get the job done, said Zartman. We ex-
pect to meet with him on a weekly basis.
The purpose in doing this is to bring the
office of the EMA to a definition that serves
the people of the county the best, said
Klopfenstein. Randy has been through
some difficult times on a limited budget.
This will enable us to work closer together in
this area.
Shaffer said that he had considered request-
ing a similar arrangement several years ago.
There have been a lot of changes taking
place in the EMA the last several years that
require a little guidance, said Shaffer. It will
be a lot easier to work with them rather than
getting it through volunteer board members.
Sometimes these decisions, especially in a
time of crisis, require quick responses. This
can help speed up that process.
These people deal with the county budget
on a daily basis. Since they see where the
funds are needed, it will give better contact
with the commissioners and the budget, ob-
served Shaffer.
In dissolving the EMA board, Klopfenstein
thanked board members for their many years
of unpaid service to the county. He especially
lauded Gene Sheets, Mayor of Cecil, for serv-
ing since the boards inception in 1989.
It was hard for me to justify appropria-
tions to the EMA without justifying the out-
come, Zartman said. I want to assure the
public that their return on investment will be
of more benefit to the community.
The structure of the EMA itself is not
changing. This doesnt change how the EMA
operates as far as Ohio Code and mandates.
The only difference is who Randy talks to as
far as supervision, said Zartman. The direct
oversight and fiduciary needs of the EMA
will be handled through the commissioners
office.
Randy has our backing in our belief in him
being able to handle this office, continued
Zartman. This transition has not been
smooth. The commissioners office has a
great deal of respect for Randy and what he
has brought to this office. We support him.

Paulding County Carnegie
Library officials were excit-
ed when they counted the
final total of their contribu-
tion as the pacesetter for this
years United Way cam-
paign. The library officials
raised a total of $2,336.97,
which is over the campaign
goal of $2,000.
Sonya Herber, executive
director for the United Way
of Paulding County, recently
announced that $60,000 has
been established as the 2014
campaign goal. Herber said
that faithful county givers
topped the 2013 goal of
$55,000 by nearly $5,000.
We are grateful for the
support of Paulding County
businesses and citizens for
their support of the paceset-
ter campaign, commented
Vicky Hall, library assistant
director. Everyone was
asked for donations for our
special kickoff community
picnic which was held on
July 30.
This is not the first time
the library has served as a
pacesetter for the countys
United Way campaign. We
were pacesetters in the fall of
2001, observed library di-
rector Susan Pieper. We had
just began our pacesetter
campaign when the twin
towers and our country were
attacked on September 11.
The entire campaign took on
new meaning during those
difficult months.
As an individual, I have
supported United Way for al-
most 30 years. I believe that
this organization does pro-
vide help on the local level,
where it is needed most,
continued Pieper. I do real-
ize that there are many indi-
viduals who have trouble
giving to big profits be-
cause of past cases of impro-
priety on a national level, but
I am confident that in a small
county like ours, these or-
ganizations are run responsi-
bly.
Pieper said that the library
was honored to be asked as
this years pacesetter for the
United Way Campaign. She
noted that it coincides with
the librarys 100-year cele-
bration of library support; it
first received funding by

PAULDING Paulding Chamber
of Commerce executive director
Erika Willitzer said that she was a bit
bewildered when Patty Vance, who
along with her husband, Bill, gave
leadership to the Flat Rock Creek
Festival for many years, told her that
there is a spirit of the festival that
accompanies the event.
These days, Willitzer has little
doubt. The participation of the com-
munity, the surrounding distance
which attracts visitors and the spirit of
community volunteerism each year
has convinced Willitzer that there is a
spiritual sense in which it is all pulled
together each year.
Willitzer said that the Flat Rock
Creek Fall Festival, which will be
held Sept. 20-22 at the Paulding
County Fairgrounds this year, will be
very similar to what has occurred over
the past several years, including the
appearance of such popular groups as,
Spike and the Bulldogs and
Spittin Image.
People like it so well that we try to
pretty much keep it the way that it is,
Willitzer said. It has grown into one
of the most popular festivals of north-
east Indiana and northwest Ohio, with
thousands of people attending each
year. We are hoping for good weather
and looking for a similar turnout this
year.
Those attending the Spike and the
Bulldogs concert at 8:30 p.m. on
Friday will discover the moment to be
one of very mixed emotions. Word
has it that popular singer Val Asay
(Spike), leader of the group, will be
retiring at the end of this season.
Another popular group, Spittin
Image, identical twins Blain and
Brian Swabb of Greenville, will be re-
turning to share their musical and
humor talent.
Other entertainment groups include
Hurdy Gurdy Band, G-Men, Happy
Times Polka Band, Wesley Linen -
kugal Band (dulcimer), Phillip Fox
Band and Stockdale Family Band.
The festival also features a major
gas and steam show.
Specialized events include antique
gas and steam engines, apple butter
making, antique scooters, broom
making, blacksmithing demonstra-

PAYNE The Payne Village Council met in
regular session on Monday evening with all
members present. Park inspections, street
paving, and EMS updates were presented to
council for their consideration.
Mayor Terry Smith advised that the park in-
spection by Risk Management had taken
place. We are delinquent in three different
areas and it would be nice to correct the prob-
lems prior to the fall festival, said Smith.
Areas of concern were the safety surface
material (pea gravel) is missing near the play-
ground landing zone, the over growth of grass
and weeds in the play area, and footers are ex-
posed.
Several streets within the village will be se-
lected to receive paving. The street committee
will meet to determine the streets that will re-
ceive the 2-inch asphalt base. Work on the
project should be done prior to the inclement
weather. Just over $20,000 has been estimated
for the paving projects.
Council heard the second of three readings
for the ordinance amending the use of golf
carts and all purpose vehicles on on village
sidewalks.
Joe Garmyn, acting EMS director, reported
that two members of the fire department will
attend EMT school. Jason Bower and Gary
Gasser will attend class in December. Garmyn
reported 18 runs by his department for the
month of August and 130 for the year.
The Payne Fall Festival is scheduled for
Oct. 12-13. The parade, scheduled for 10 a.m.
on Oct. 12 will begin at the Payne School and
end at the park. A motion by Feasby, seconded
by Miller, unanimously passed for the village
to pay the necessary insurance.
The motion to suspend the rules was made
by Kathy Feasby, seconded by Eric Gross for
a resolution to accept the amounts and rates
determined by the budget commission for
2014 and authorizing necessary tax levies and
certifying them to the county auditor. A motion
to accept the resolution was made by Randy
Miller, seconded by Feasby, The resolution
passed unanimously.
Miller announced that Taylor Products will
host an open house including tours from 9-
11:30 a.m. Saturday, Sept 14.
It was agreed to get rid of the combination
gazebo and picnic table located near the vol-
leyball court. Gross will remove the dilapidat-
ed items.

remember? was a ques-

asked in Oakwood during the
Homecoming, the alumni
banquet and the cemetery
walk a couple of weeks ago.
Mixed in with this question
was the concern that the com-

The Oakwood Library
Association has decided to
try and prevent this loss. The
Association is going to pub-
lish a book of Oakwood
memories.
The book will consist of ar-
ticles, long and short, that
have been written about past
and present members of the
Oakwood community. These
will be collected together into
a book and sold.
The cost of the books will
be cost, plus $10, which will
go to the Oakwood Library
Association.

asking people to write about
their parents, grandparents,
neighbors, friends, etc. They
can write as little or as much

on the side of their garage.
Minutes later, at 4:53 p.m.,
it was reported that the rest-

The library has always
been about community and
doing what is best for all citi-
zens, said Pieper. Whether
this is providing quality library
service or setting an example
of stewardship for United
Way, we examine every possi-
bility to serve. Other efforts in-
clude hosting a Relay for Life
team.
That is what makes us the
publics library, stated Pieper.
We know our patrons, we
know our community, we un-
derstand the needs and we are
here to help, whether in setting
the pace for the United Way
Campaign or providing infor-
mation and services to help
our citizens make informed
decisions, the public library is
more than just brick and a
mortar building.
Funds for the pacesetter giv-
ing was raised by employee
contributions, proceeds from
the pacesetter community

individuals.

seems that if you make a dead-
line for getting something
done, it goes faster.
I think it would have been
possible to get everyone a new
outfit sewed, if it wasnt that
its also the middle of canning
season.
We had two bushels of
peaches to work away on Tues-
day and kept the best ones back
for fresh eating. Its good to
have healthy snacks on hand
for the children. I am glad most
of our children like fresh
peaches. I told the children
once they add sugar to them
they arent healthy anymore.
Our plans, Lord willing, are
to start out for Hicksville, Ohio
on Sunday morning. We will
attend the baptismal church
services for Joes cousin,
Stephen.
From there, we will head to-
wards the Berne, Ind. area and
stay out there until Monday.
On Monday, we will attend the
family gathering at brother
Amos and Nancys house.
Hopefully, we wont be home
too late, as the children will
have school the next day.
Monday is also son, Kevins,
eighth birthday. He is excited
about his upcoming birthday.
How can our youngest be turn-
ing eight and be going into sec-
ond grade already? Time does
not stand still. How nice it
would be to still get excited
about birthdays. We shouldnt
complain, though, if we have
good health.
My thoughts and prayers are
with my friend, Barb, as she
battles that dreadful disease,
This is the last week the chil-
dren will be home all day.
School doors open Tuesday,
Sept. 3. Where have all these
summer months gone?
Verena, 15, finished her 8th
grade year last term, so she will
be home now to help me.
Susan, 17, would like to get a
full time job, but I would like
to teach her how to put together
a dress, shirt, pants, etc.
It makes it so much easier
for me when they can cut out
and sew their own clothes and
help with the boys shirts and
pants. It takes time and pa-
tience to teach them, but it feels
rewarding once you see they
can sew together their own
dresses.
Elizabeth, 19, finished a pair
of pants for Timothy last night.
She sewed herself a new dress
and Timothy a shirt and pants
that they plan wearing on
Labor Day to the family gath-
ering at brother Amoss.
I sewed me a new dress suit
and Joe a new shirt. I cut out
Verena and Loretta each a new
dress, but still need to sew one.
It makes it easy as they have
the same pattern. I need to
make Verenas shorter than
Lorettas because at age 13,
Loretta is a few inches taller
than Verena.
My goal was to get new
shirts sewed for the boys and a
dress for Lovina by Labor Day
weekend, but doesnt look like
Ill make it. Maybe for the
Graber reunion in October. It
cancer. May God heal her and
bless her with good health in
the future. Barbs visits are al-
ways a highlight as she brings
M&Ms, so that is when we get

This is a different recipe to
try. Until next time God Bless!

Tax changes in
effect as of Sept. 1
In a recent column, I explained some of the
tax reforms that were included in the state op-
erating budget that was signed by the governor
on the last day of June. Taken together, the
considerable cut in the state income tax and a
slight increase in the state sales tax, Ohioans
will experience a net $2.7 bil-
lion tax reduction over the
next three years.
On Sunday, Sept. 1, those
reforms officially went into
effect. Beginning this year, the
income tax will be reduced by
8.5 percent on individuals and
50 percent for businesses.
When fully implemented, by
2016, the individual rate will
have been reduced by 10 per-
cent.
There is also a slight in-
crease in the sales tax, about
an additional 25 cents for
every $100 a person spends. Again consider-
ing that this equals a net tax reduction, I was
supportive of this provision because moving
in the direction of a consumption-based tax
system gives Ohio residents more control over
the amount of taxes they pay because they
have control over their own purse strings.
In addition, it is important to remember that
not everything is subject to the state sales tax.
The Ohio Department of Taxation estimates
that for most families, only 35 percent of their
spending includes a sales tax. Items like gro-
ceries and medicine are not subject to the sales
tax.
Recently, I, along with other members of the
Ohio House Agriculture and Natural Re-
sources Committee, toured businesses
throughout Northwest Ohio, including a re-
newable energy facility in Haviland, a partner-
ship between Quasar Energy Group and
Haviland Plastic Products. The
company is active in finding
eco-friendly ways to create
electricity and compressed
natural gas.
To me, that visit provided
just one small reminder of all
the innovations that take place
so often in the private sector
innovations that increase effi-
ciency, lower costs and im-
prove our daily lives. The
effort of finding responsible
ways to allow these companies
to put more of their resources
toward research, equipment
and their employees is something that I am
proud to stand behind.
I believe Ohios recent budget bill was a
positive step in helping our local businesses
and the people and families of northwest Ohio.

Out-of-area
service is
not needed
Dear Editor,
In our law practice we
have recently encountered
an out-of-the-area service
which sends unsolicited ad-
vice to people who have re-
cently been involved in real
estate transfers. This so-
called service attempts to
convince people to pay them
the sum of $83 in exchange
for which the service
promises to send copies of
documents from the county
recorders office.
It is obvious that this en-
tity surfs the Internet just as
anyone can do for free,
checks our county deed
transfer records, and then
sends out blanket solicita-
tions hoping to beguile as
many people as possible into
sending a fee for something
they do not need.
If you need copies of real
estate records, we recom-
mend that you either contact
your attorney or contact the
recorders office. These
records are also available
on-line to anyone for free.

Kudos to summer
food program
Dear Editor,
Hello friends and support-
ers of the Summer Food
Service Program (SFSP).
With over 900 Paulding
Exempted Village students
qualifying for free and re-
duced lunches, the need to
offer this program during the
summer is important.
We would like to thank
each of you for your assis-
tance in making this summer
so special for the children in
our community.
This summer, 1,308
healthy lunches were served
to over 280 children at
LaFountain Park. Many par-
ents who brought their chil-
dren to the program said
they liked the new location.
Thanks to Mayor Greg
White, and to our Kiwanis
friends who stepped up and
allowed us to use the Kiwa-
nis Community Center as a
backup site in case of in-
clement weather.
Thanks again to Marsha
Yeutter of the Paulding
County Senior Center for
preparing a large variety of
nutritious lunches. We also
wish to thank all of our vol-
unteers, area individuals,
businesses and organiza-
tions, for helping to serve
the meals.
They are: Paulding High
School, Future Farmers of
America, Treasure Hunters
Club, students, coaches,
Free Christian Church,
Nazarene Church advisors,
Center, JFS Childrens Serv-
ices, Huntington Bank, com-
munity individuals and
RSVP.
Activities which are a part
of the program are equally
as important; providing so-
cialization, recreational and
educational options during
the summer.
Thank you to the advisors,
coaches and students of
Paulding High School for
planning and implementing
activities for the younger
children. Their mentoring
was inspiring to watch.
Also, thank you to others
who offered their time and
talents. They are Annes
Bright Beginnings, Free
Christian Church, Paulding
County Senior Center,
RSVP, JFS Childrens Serv-
ices, Future Farmers of
America, Girl Scouts, Pauld-
ing County Library and
community individuals.
Also, thank you to United
Way of Paulding County for
additional funding and to
each of you who attended
our organizational meetings,
and who helped with the
background work to make
this program successful.
Programs like this take the
combined efforts of commu-
nity-minded individuals who
are willing to offer their time
and talents to make someone
elses life a little happier or
better in some way.
We look forward to host-
ing the Summer Food Serv-
ice Program again next year
and hope that you, as well as
others from Defiance, will
continue to join our efforts
to provide free nutritious
meals and activities to our
children.

Property Transfers
One thing that
ticks me off...
One thing that ticks me off is receiving anonymous letters.
Today I received one with a photocopied list of leaders of non-
profits and their high salaries. And, there was another list of
charities this person thought were more worthy of support. They
even took the time to jot a note to me stating that this is why
people do not want to give to United Way. I suppose they sent
it to me because they know I support United Way and the library
is the Pacesetter for this years United Way campaign.
Paulding County United
Way pays about $500 a year
to United Way Worldwide
which in turn provides train-
ing and educational opportu-
nities to all United Way
organizations which includes
an online discussion list an
invaluable tool especially for
smaller United Way organiza-
tions. It allows our small county to link up with like-sized
groups.
Paulding County United Way also pays a membership to the
Ohio United Way which amounted to about $150 in 2013.
Our local UW office was able to keep overhead down to 11
percent in 2012.
The rest of the funds stay in the county to help fund: the chil-
dren in 4-H, the hungry through the food pantries, helping
homeless buy their first home through Habitat for Humanity,
senior citizens receive hot meals; and the list goes on and on.
Our county raises six figures for the American Cancer Society
(ACS) via the Relay for Life. Yet the ACS director receives over
$2 million in salary alone not to mention benefits. Plus the en-
tire overhead of the ACS equals over $100,000,000 (thats one-
hundred million). And, according to Glass Door, a community
career and job site (http://www.glassdoor.com/Salary/American-
Cancer-Society-Salaries-E4021.htm) even the Relay for Life re-
gional managers receive a salary.
Yet, we raise thousands of dollars to help because everyone
knows someone who has survived, is fighting or has died of
cancer. When I give to Relay for Life, I do not think about the
millions going to administer the organization. I think of Betty
Sue down the road who might be able to get a free wig, and
Donna Jo who might get help with transportation to treatments.
And, I think of my loved ones who have survived, are fighting,
or who have perished from cancer. It is very personal.
When you think of United Way, do not think about the cost to
administer the organization. It is a very small fraction of what
the American Cancer Society costs to run. Think of the personal
impact. Think of Rachel taking her 4-H lamb project to the fair,
Cindy who is helping her mom paint their new Habitat for Hu-
manity home, or of Margaret and Pete who are receiving their
monthly allotment of food from the food pantry.
Giving to United Way may not be as an emotional effort and
there probably will not be walk-a-thons and all-night events as
there are for the Relay for Life. But United Way in Paulding
County still impacts thousands of lives every day. So before
you decide not to give just a few dollars a month, or a one-time
gift to United Way, remember to think locally, at the impact of
your few dollars on a child or a family maybe you or your
neighbor. It takes money to run organizations and you will get a
huge bang for your buck because of the responsible manage-
ment of our local United Way of Paulding County. Please con-
sider supporting this local cause through a payroll deduction or

PCH board reviews upgrades,
patient satisfaction report
By BILL SHERRY
Correspondent
PAULDING The Paulding County Hospi-
tal (PCH) Board of Trustees met on Sept. 5,
hearing reports on technology upgrades,
Medicare expansion and patient satisfaction
surveys.
Chief Operating Officer Randy Ruge re-
ported that the nuclear medicine department
has installed the Siemens Dual Head eCam,
which will result in tests that can be performed
twice as fast as before.
Ruge advised the board that the CT scanner
has been upgraded with new software and
hardware that will reduce the noise level and
improve service life.
Ruge has been holding meetings to discuss
upgrading the swing bed rooms to provide more
comfort for PCH Patients. Former swing bed pa-
tients were surveyed and updates will be made
to areas identified from these surveys.
Chief Executive Officer Gary Adkins re-
ported that he continues to advocate for Med-
icaid expansion. Adkins indicated that without
Medicaid expansion, the hospital could poten-
tially have cuts of $4.3 million per year in fed-
eral reimbursements. Adkins reported that he
had met with State Rep. Tony Burkley and
State Sen. Cliff Hite to discuss the hospitals
support for Medicaid expansion.
Adkins will also be active in providing ed-
ucation to the countys federal legislators in
regards to the importance of PCH remaining
part of the Critical Access Hospital Program.
The Office of Inspector General has recently
released a recommendation to eliminate 70
percent of Critical Access Hospitals in the
United States.
Chief Financial Officer Rob Goshia re-
ported that for the month of July 2013, PCH
experienced a gain of $52,071 with a year-to-
date gain of $135,180.
Goshia also reported that a capital expendi-
ture request of $40,684 was made for an in-
house email system to help limit
vulnerabilities for viruses or spam plus assist
with HIPAA issues.
Goshia announced that a purchase will be
made for software components to help comply
with ICD-10 federally mandated updates on
hospital coding. This software will be used in
assessments, education and training. The cost
of this software update is $55,900.
The quality improvement committee met
and was presented with the 2013 second quar-
terly quality improvement report, the legal
compliance audit for second quarter 2013, and
second quarter 2013 patient satisfaction re-
port.
The patient satisfaction report indicated that
96 percent of patients surveyed who had used
the PCH Emergency Room said they would
refer the ER to their family and friends.
Also, 99 percent using outpatient services
said they would refer those services to family
and friends, and 100 percent of inpatients
questioned said they would refer PCH to their
family and friends.
PCH sponsored an American Red Cross
Blood Drive on Sept. 4 with 16 units of blood
being collected. The blood supply is at a crit-
ically low level so these donations were espe-
cially welcome. Many hospital employees and
the general public donated blood.
The next board meeting is scheduled for
5:45 p.m. Oct. 3 in the PCH conference room.
This meeting will begin with the hospital
strategic planning session and a meal.

Fields of Faith event coming Oct. 9
ANTWERP Students from Antwerp,
Hicksville, Wayne Trace, Paulding and other
area schools will be joining thousands of other
youth on athletic fields all across the nation at 7
p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 9, at the Antwerp Com-
munity Ball Fields. They will be sharing their
Christian faith with fellow students during the
eighth annual national Fields of Faith event.
This rapidly-growing, interdenominational
outreach event will be held at more than 450
locations throughout the nation on this same
date.
While many Christian rallies are anchored
to an entertainer or professional speaker that
creates a spectator event, Fields of Faith is
structured as a student-to-student ministry.
Peers invite their own classmates and team-
mates to meet on their schools athletic field
to hear fellow students share their testimonies,
challenge them to read the Bible and to come
to faith in Jesus Christ.
This will be the third Fields of Faith event
for the Antwerp area. Last year, approxi-
mately 200 students and supporters attended.
In 2012, more than 160,000 students gath-
ered on 424 fields across 37 states to partici-
pate in the event.
More information about Fields of Faith is
available at FieldsofFaith.com. To learn more
about the event in Antwerp, contact Savanna
Fettig at 419-258-0743 or

A Penny For
Your Thoughts....
By: Nancy Whitaker
THE LONG WINTER
Summer is almost over and
we are approaching autumn.
Autumn is a favorite time of
year which brings us falling
colorful leaves, bonfires,
pumpkins, apples and the first
frost.
The whole countryside
presents us with a kaleido-
scope of beauty as leaves turn
colors and fall to the ground
forming a colorful carpet on
the grass.
I will say that I do enjoy
living in an area that enjoys
the weather of all four sea-
sons. Some people hate the
cold weather in the winter, so
they migrate to areas where
they dont have to experience
any snow or blizzard-like
conditions. But, I just cant
imagine Christmas time with-
out snow or cold.
If anyone is like me, I like
to know what kind of condi-
tions we can expect this win-
ter.
The 2014 Farmers Al-
manac has been released (for
a couple weeks now, actually)
and that means we now
can glimpse into what the up-
coming fall and winter season
might have in store.
According to the almanac,
well see a generally comfort-
able September up until the
end of the month when it will
turn sharply colder. October
also looks quite cold and pos-
sibly snowy at times. (Oh,
no!)
The cold theme continues
into November, but we stay
pretty dry until the last two
weeks when a cold storm sys-
tem is to move through just in
time for Thanksgiving. De-
cember looks seasonable with
light snow and average tem-
peratures.
January looks very cold
with heavy snowfalls, al-
though due to all the cloudi-
ness it doesnt look like well
repeat last years frigid
overnight lows. February
looks cold and wet with a
mild, early spring in March.
Again, these predictions
are never 100 percent; how-
ever, they do bear some cred-
ibility. Some people believe
that nature has a way of
telling us if a harsh winter is
just around the corner.
There are countless Old
Wives Tales that have been
passed down from generation
to generation to help deter-
mine the ferocity of an ap-
proaching winter. Here are
some of the more widely
known indicators.
There will be thicker than
normal corn husks, wood-
peckers sharing a tree, thick
hair on the nape (back) of the
cows neck, heavy and nu-
merous fogs during August,
early arrival of crickets on the
hearth, unusual abundance of
acorns, and f r e q u e n t
halos or rings around sun or
moon is used to forecast nu-
merous snowfalls.
Sometimes, the weather
forecasters will warn us that a
big snow and blowing winds
are approaching. We all go to
the store and get supplies in
case we get snowed in and kids
prepare to sleep in the next day.
However, a lot of times the
snow is not as bad as what
was forecasted, roads are
clear, kids have to get up in
the morning and I have to get
out of my warm bed and
come to work.
Of course, we all like to be
prepared for any bad weather,
so the weathermen are greatly
appreciated and do a great job
of warning us when bad
weather is coming. This winter
appears like it may be a cold
and snowy one, but again I
have not seen any indications
telling me that.
How do you predict a bad
winter? Do you believe in old
wives tales? How much snow
will we get this year? Do you
believe it is going to be a bad
winter? Let me know and Ill
give you a Penny For Your
Thoughts.

continuation of last weeks article.
Birds of Paulding County
By Homer Price
July 14, 1970
Blue-winged warbler (is) irregular in summer.
A small colony nested northeast of Antwerp in a
brushy area in the 1920s-1930s but partly due to
swarms of mosquitos, the nests were not found.
Yellow warbler (was) a rather common nester
from 1910-1925; scarce today.
Cerulean warbler (was) rather common at one
time but believed to be scarce today. They often
nested high up on large limbs of big oak trees.
Squirrels probably destroyed many nests.
Ovenbird (was) once rather common in wet
woods where the ball-shaped nest was concealed
on the ground; scarce today.
Northern yellow-throat (was) probably rather
common in suitable wet woods or edges of
woods. The first eggs were collected June 27,
1915 in a nest in goldenrods in Benton Town-
ship.
Yellow-breasted chat. This large warbler
should be rather common in brushy areas where
wild rosebushes and briars grow plentifully. One
can expect torn clothing and plenty of scratches
when searching for nests. Some birds can mock
catbirds, crows or red-headed woodpeckers.
American redstart (is) a resident of wet woods.
A set was taken May 28, 1938 in Carryall Town-
ship along Marie DeLarme Creek; scarce today.
English sparrow (is) still a common species.
Bobolink (is) still rather common. Six males
were counted at one time in June 1970 near our
home. Only 24 nests were found however in a
48-year period.
Eastern meadowlark (is) common, but de-
creasing in number as permanent pastures have
been tilled and clever acreage decreased.
Western meadowlark. This species was first
noticed in the 1950s? A nest containing five eggs
was found June 20, 1955 south of Payne. This
may be the first set of eggs taken in Ohio. The
birds look very much like the common eastern
bird, but the song is much louder and more shrill
and can be heard at a considerable distance.
Their alarm note sounds like the word thud;
increasing slowly in number.
Red-winged blackbird (is) abundant. Formerly
they nested in sloughs of Flatrock Creek but for
a number of years they have been nesting in the
clover fields. They are plentiful at the Lake Erie
marshes and at the Grand Reservoir also. At Put-
in-Bay large numbers are said to nest in trees.
They may be destructive in time.
Orchard oriole (was) rather common in the
1910s and 1920s; rare today. One set of four eggs
were taken from a nest in an old orchard near
Flatrock Creek in Benton Township June 9,
1916.
Baltimore oriole (is) much less common than
formerly. Old nests were formerly noted hanging
from branches of trees along roads; few are seen
at present.
Bronzed grackle (is) much more common
than formerly. Many still nest in the upper struc-
tures of steel bridges and in evergreen trees in
cemeteries.
Cowbird (is) still common. I have found their
eggs in the nests of 29 species of birds. They
build no nests, but allow other birds to hatch the
eggs and feed their young.
Scarlet tanager (is) probably about as common
as ever. They usually are not much in evidence
in the open woods.
Cardinal (is) probably less common now than
when I was a boy, although they were not very
common then. Many nest in towns as well as
along the streams.
Rose-breasted grosbeak. This handsome
species has never been very common here. They
are found principally along the Maumee River.
I have never found more than half dozen nests
in the county, all along the Maumee.
Indigo bunting. The handsome blue male is in
contrast to the sparrow-like female. They nest in
low bushes at the borders of woods as a rule. The
male sings on the hottest days of summer; less
common today.
Dickcissal. This species is very irregular in
numbers. Common some summers and then
scarce or absent for a time. The males have a mo-
notonous dickcissal call. They sing in the
warmest weather. They were common here
about 1911-1912, when they nested commonly
in clover fields. Their plain blue eggs resemble
eggs of the bluebird.
Please, dont forget the fund raising efforts at
the park. Paving is now complete, but funds are
still being raised.

Paulding Council hears
about park vandalism
By BILL SHERRY
Correspondent
PAULDING Paulding Vil-
lage Council met Tuesday, Sept.
3. The bimonthly council meet-
ing was held a day later than
normal due to Monday being
the Labor Day holiday.
Council President Roger
Sierer told council that there had
been vandalism at LaFountain
Park and that it happens almost
every year following the sum-
mer season.
Sierer stated, This year we
have spent over $1,000 taking
care of the normal wear and tear
around the park and now we
have to go back and fix broken
things and clean up the bad
words and graffiti on the walls.
Sierer told council that the
Paulding Police Department is
involved in the problem and
everyone is reminded that
LaFountain Park is closed from
dusk to dawn and anyone
caught in the park when it is
closed can be charged with tres-
passing.
Council agreed to the dusk-
to-dawn closing of LaFountain
Park in their Sept. 17, 2007
meeting due to vandalism and
in that same meeting asked any-
one living near the park to re-
port any suspicious activity to
the police.
Sierer stated, We are going to
catch them or the park will have
to be closed; a couple of people
are making it bad for everyone.
Village solicitor Mike Jones
advised council that he had
some concerns regarding Reso-
lution 1282-13, which was
unanimously passed at the last
council meeting. This resolution
authorized a cooperative fishing
agreement with the State of
Ohio and authorized Mayor
Greg White to sign the agree-
ment.
Jones stated that the first con-
cern was that the cooperative
agreement with the State of
Ohio ODNR would allow the
use of boats on the reservoir that
have gasoline motors and this
may cause some water quality
problems. Village administrator
Harry Wiebe told council that
the use of gasoline motors on
boats on the reservoir was not al-
lowed and the only type of
motor that was allowed is an
electric motor.
The second concern with the
agreement was that zebra mus-
sels could get into the reservoir
from boats used in Lake Erie
and then used on the reservoir.
The concern was that if this
happened, the zebra mussels
would plug the water intake sys-
tem of the water treatment plant.
Jones told council that he had
left a message concerning the
zebra mussel issue with the
ODNR, but had received no re-
sponse.
There was some table talk
concerning the fact that the
small boats and canoes used on
the reservoir would not be large
enough to be used on Lake Erie.
Council agreed to proceed
with the cooperative fishing
agreement with the ODNR as it
was passed at the last council
meeting.
A recreation committee meet-
ing was scheduled for Sept. 9 at
the Lela McGuire Jeffery Park
to discuss planting some trees
and getting soccer field(s) set up
as part of the park.
Officials learned that no bids
have been received for sale of
the vacant lot where the Hotel
Barnes had been located.
Council heard the second
reading of Ordinance 1467-13,
repealing Ordinance 1268-02 in
its entirety and restricting the use
of snowmobiles, four-wheelers
and all purpose vehicles in the
village.
Council heard the first reading
of an ordinance that would allow
the mayor or administrator to
apply for a grant from the Ohio
Public Works Commission.

QUESTION: Ive never kept
tight controls on my
teenagers. I dont enforce
strict curfews or get uptight
when they come in late at
night. But recently, I read an
article about sexual slavery
and human trafficking in our
community, and it left me
deeply unsettled. Am I over-
reacting?
JIM: Human trafficking is a
terrible reality that impacts not
only the developing world, but
middle-class neighborhoods
right here in the U.S. So yes,
you need to be aware of this
dark underside of contempo-
rary culture.
At the same time, alarmist
fears are helpful to no one. You
dont want to scare your kids
unnecessarily. Nor is it wise to
convey an attitude of suspicion
or distrust to your teens without
good cause.
Statistically, they face far
greater danger from simply rid-
ing in an automobile every day
than they do from the possibil-
ity of trafficking.
You know your kids best,
and youre in the best position
to determine whether they
might be vulnerable to this
kind of deception and victim-
ization.
Are they troubled in any
way? Do they struggle in
school? Are they slipping aca-
demically, dealing with social
rejection or facing bully prob-
lems? Are they new in the
neighborhood, unpopular with
their classmates, insecure or
low on self-esteem? If so, their
innate desire for some kind of
human connection could make
them easy targets.
The best way to prevent this
is to make sure youre building
strong relationships with your
kids. The family should be
their primary point of connec-
tion. You can protect them
against all kinds of negative
outside influences by forging a
bond of mutual trust. Make it
clear that they can always
come to you with their needs,
problems and concerns.
While your first responsibil-
ity is to your own kids, its also
important for everyone to do
their part to ensure their com-
munities are safe. Keep your
radar up for signs of suspicious
activity in your community.
If, at any point, you come
across evidence that your chil-
dren or anyone else you know
have become caught up in
human trafficking, contact
local authorities or call the Na-
tional Human Trafficking Hot-
line at 888-373-7888.
QUESTION: My wife has
given up drinking several
times only to end up back on
the bottle. Shes lost her job,
our household is showing
signs of neglect, and the
whole family is slowly going
to pieces. What can I do to
reverse this negative trend?
DR. GREG SMALLEY,
vice president, Family Min-
istries: Were very sorry to
learn about this painful situa-
tion. One thing is for certain:
You cant navigate it alone.
Your wife, especially, needs to
enlist outside help to combat
her addiction.
The Lighthouse Network is
a clearinghouse for substance
abuse referrals. People there
can help you locate a facility in
your area that will help your
wife take some positive steps
toward recovery. They can also
provide information regarding
the insurance companies that
are prepared to work with these
facilities. You can contact
Lighthouse Network at 877-
562-2565.
Another option for long-term
treatment of alcoholism is the
Salvation Army. This service is
offered free of charge. Visit
www.salvationarmyusa.org for
information regarding local
treatment centers. You can also
By Jim Daly
find out about local Alcoholics
Anonymous groups at
www.aa.org.
Finally, you should think
about enlisting the help of a
qualified professional, not only
to help your wife, but to help
your entire family navigate
these difficult waters.
Contact Focus on the Family
(focus on the family.com) for a
free consultation with one of
our staff counselors, as well as
a referral to long-term counsel-
ing in your area. God bless you
and your family as you go
through this dark time together.

Winning the Battle for a Generation

By Rick Jones
exec. director, Defiance
Area Youth for Christ
Have you experienced love, Gods love?
I read online recently about a couple who
were married and divorced over 48 years ago
and they decided to get married again.
The lovebirds then met up by chance at
Christmas last year when their daughter, Lisa,
took her father, Wills, along to a family gath-
ering. Wills added, This time were going to
make it last.
Another love story that I recently read about
came from Cynthia Riggs, an 81-year-old
mystery writer and owner of a bed and break-
fast in Marthas Vineyard.
After living by herself for decades, she re-
ceived a strange coded note in the mail. She
was pretty sure she knew who sent the note
and what the note said. It was, in fact, a person
from her youth. It was from Howard Atter-
bury, a man she had worked with at the
Scripps Institute of Oceanography when she
was 18.
They had used the code as a kind of fun
game to make comments about what was
going on in the office. No romance developed
between them. She had not heard from
Howard for 63 years.
The letter led to phone conversations, which
led to a visit, which led one hour later to an
engagement, which led to marriage in 2013.
The bride was 81, and the groom was 91.
What did the coded note say? It said, I have
never stopped loving you. Howard told CBS
news, Love is a great place to spend the rest
of your life.
The presence and power of love in a rela-
tionship is a great gift, especially when it is
the kind of love that is from God, what the
scriptures call, agape love. Have you experi-
enced love, Gods love?
With regard to love and its presence, power
and permanence the scriptures tells us in I
Corinthians 13:13 (NASB) But now faith,
hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest
of these is love.

THIRD GRADE STUDENTS SHOW THEIR APPRECIATION TO THEIR P.T.O. Prior to the start of the 2013-14 school year, Wayne
Trace Payne Elementary PTO president Amy Klinker brought together parent volunteers to remove broken playground equipment
and to paint the monkey bars and merry-go-round. Over the Labor Day weekend, Mrs. Klinker coordinated a team to replace a
broken tunnel and a bridge on the main playground apparatus. This was no small feat as the combined weight of the tunnel and
bridge exceeded 430 pounds. Klinker and her team members demonstrate an outstanding commitment to their school and com-
munity. The students and staff at Wayne Trace Payne Elementary are blessed to have such an amazing PTO.

In The
Garden
Passalong plants & plenty of produce
More than once Ive heard
it said that gardeners are
some of the most kind and
generous people youll ever
meet. And in my experience,
its true. I doubt theres a gar-
dener out there that hasnt
shared something from their
garden.
This time of year, those of
us that grow fruits and veg-
etables know that seldom do
our plants produce just the
right amount we need,
whether its too little or too
much. While many things
have done well, in my own
garden this wasnt a good
year for beets.
I happen to love pickled
beets and could probably eat
them every single day of my
life, so thats one thing youll
always find growing in our
garden. But, this year, our
beet crop was pitiful. It might
be because I got the seeds in
the ground a bit late. Or
maybe its because they were
in a location that doesnt get
enough sun. In any case, I
didnt get a single beet.
Some years are like that -
A for effort, but F for
productivity. But, because of
the gardening prowess and
generosity of one of our
neighbors, Ive got a good
supply of some of the biggest
and most beautiful red beets
youve ever seen. Theyll all
be pickled and processed as
soon as Im done writing this
column.
I remember the year that I
grew zucchini and didnt get
a single one of those either. I
things are called, are a tradi-
tion among gardeners. What-
ever you have too much of
gets shared with friends and
neighbors. Ive got a goodly
number of former passalongs
growing in my own garden,
many from my mother, which
she shared with me when I
first planted the largest of our
gardens.
Others came from friends,
such as the globe flower from
a friend in New York, whose
sister works in the gardens at
Monticello and had first
shared it with her.
There is the St. Johns Wort
from a fellow garden writer in
North Carolina and the beau-
tiful red Asiatic lily from my
next-door neighbor who was
cleaning out her gardens and
thought it would look better
in mine.
No thanks are necessary
when sharing plants, because
the plants wont grow if you
do, dont you know. The tra-
ditional way of showing ap-
preciation is to pay it forward
by passing along plants from
your own garden when you
can.
And so it goes. We give
and receive and in the
process, we learn a little more
about gardening and each
other as we share across the
garden gates.

Acre, at www.ourlittleacre.com

dener@gmail.com
had the most beautiful golden
yellow blooms and while I
know that those are edible
too, I wanted squash that I
could use to make bread. For
some reason, no ones zuc-
chini got pollinated that year
and unlike most years, no one
was tossing extras on my
porch. I actually had to buy
zucchini. Have you ever
heard of such a thing??
This was a good year for
fruiting trees and plants,
likely because of all the rain
earlier in the season. (Where
is that now?) Weve had
bumper crops of strawberries,
blueberries, grapes and black-
berries. The potatoes were
good-sized and the green
beans are still coming on.
The rest of the garden has
done well too, in fact, parts of
it are jungle-like and Ive had
to dig and divide some things.
The butterfly weed has threat-
ened to overtake the catnip
and with several outside cats,
we cant have that, so I dug
some of the milkweed and
shared it with a friend.
Passalong plants, as these
going on in the office. No romance developed
between them. She had not heard from
Howard for 63 years.
The letter led to phone conversations, which
led to a visit, which led one hour later to an
engagement, which led to marriage in 2013.

Oakwood Council hires
part-time police officer
Oakwood Mayor Bud Henke (left) swore in Patrolman Derek
Beardsley as a part-time village police officer Aug. 31.
By BILL SHERRY
Correspondent
OAKWOOD Oakwood
Village Council met Sept. 9 in
the village council chambers for
a short meeting with five coun-
cil members present.
Police Chief Mark Figert in-
formed council that Patrolman
Derek Beardsley was sworn in
on Aug. 31 as a part-time police
officer.
Figert commented that there
is still some training needed as
Beardsley becomes acquainted
with the village, village laws
and procedures.
The newly acquired fire truck
was taken to the repair shop in
Cridersville to have several
items repaired. The expenses for
the repairs will be billed to the
insurance company.
Village administrator John
Keyes told council that he had
spent a huge portion of the
Labor Day weekend operating
the village water system manu-
ally, which meant that he had to
go to the water plant several
times during the night to manu-
ally start pumps.
Keyes told council that a
water-hammer had developed
on Pump 3 and this caused
some plumbing failures on
Pump 1. The problem is cor-
rected and Keyes told council
that the sulfur smell should be
gone in the next few days.
Keyes also noted that if this
ever happens again they
would have the ability to drill
the old pipe out of the fittings
and save time and money on
the repairs.
Councilwoman Vicky
Long voiced a big thanks to
Keyes for all his effort over
the holiday weekend.
Keyes commented that the
fire departments Oakwood
Homecoming invitational
water ball fight was canceled
due to all teams deciding not
to compete.
Mayor Erhard Bud
Henke and council extended
a big thank you to the Oak-
wood Homecoming Commit-
tee and everyone that made
this years Oakwood Home-
coming another huge success.
It was announced that the
new shelterhouse has passed
inspection and has now been
approved and accepted.
Council unanimously
passed Resolution #13-R-10
accepting amounts and rates
as determined by the budget
commission and authorizing
the necessary tax levies and
certifying them to the Pauld-
ing County Auditor.

The Paulding County commis-

dressed the following:
authorized the county auditor
to appropriate $8,800 to Moving

pense.

ices.

neer Travis McGarvey the ap-
proval to apply to the Ohio Works

passed by the commissioners
which authorized and directed the
Paulding County Auditor to issue
a check for $70,000 payable to
D&L Properties LLC from the
Revolving Loan Fund and deliv-
erable to Paulding County Eco-
nomic Development. On Aug. 5,
a letter was received from PCED
stating that D&L did not want to
complete the loan at this time. The
commissioners rescinded the July
31 resolution.
a new County Health Insur-
ance Fund 192 was created for the
new county insurance. The audi-
tor was directed to issue a check
for $15,000 from the General
Fund Insurance Health Insurance
to the County Health Insurance

sented the paperwork from the

ballot this fall.
Tim Doescher, northwest re-
gional representative for the lieu-
tenant governor, introduced
himself and explained that he cov-
ers 22 counties in northwest Ohio.
The commissioners were asked
if they had any concerns with state
and local government. The com-
missioners voiced concerns about
tax credits for wind power com-
panies. They said they had heard
opposition at the state level and
wondered why.
They also were concerned
about renewable energy al-
lowances, hoping that the new al-
lowances would not take away
from the actual green energy pro-
duction.
Cuts in local government fund-
ing was another worry, especially
with more and more services
being mandated from the state
level.
Doescher asked if Jobs Ohio
was beneficial to the county. The
commissioners noted that the em-
phasis on Jobs Ohio is the total
number of jobs. They inquired if
the statistics could be looked at on
a percentage of jobs per capita,
based on population.

26, Paulding County Commis-
sioners created four new revenue
and expense line items and made

ments with an estimated revenue

enues listed at $10,600, $800 and
$400, respectively.

I can tell by your accent
Our tiny little county referred
to people as, north of the
river and south of the river.
South of the river, when peo-
ple visited each other, when
guests departed, the ones enter-
taining them often used this
warm phrase, Youens all
come back now. North of the
river, the expression was,
Come back anytime.
It was said that the differ-
ences occurred because those
migrating into the area came
from areas of the south into the
southern part of the county,
while those in the central and
northern part of the county mi-
grated from Ohio to Fort
Wayne and then south.
This past weekend, our na-
tion celebrated Labor Day,
complete with picnics, family
gatherings and supposed final
lake outings of the summer.
Friday night, there was the
When I was a child, our fam-
ily visited my Aunt Norma
(who once ran The Green
Pantry Restaurant in Antwerp)
and my Uncle Art at their home
in Jacksonville, Fla. As we
started back to the north, my
parents decided to purchase
pecans at a road side stand in
Georgia.
At the time, I-75 was a thing
of the future and markets lined
the old U.S. 27 south of
Macon. When my mother ap-
proached the cashier to pay for
her purchase, the lady behind
the cash register said, Youre
from Indiana, arent you? It
must be understood that at the
time, we had traveled very little
out of northeast Indiana.
My mother acknowledged
that she was and asked the lady
how she knew. The friendly
cashier responded, I could tell
by your accent.
My mother didnt say any-
thing until she climbed into the
car. Then, with a bit of huffi-
ness in her voice, she said to
my dad, Well, of all the nerve!
How could she say that? She
was the one with the accent,
not me!
Lots of travels have occurred
since that time. Our children
have been to Europe and Mex-
ico and various parts of the
world. As a family, we have
been across the continent
twice. I married a woman who
was raised in New Jersey and
still pronounces the word
idea as idear.
When I attended a high
school football game at her
home school in Jersey one Sat-
urday afternoon, I heard the an-
nouncer say, The bull is on
the faw yard line. Later, her
cousin asked for a buttle of
wotta.
Being interpreted, the first
expression was, The ball is on
the four yard line. The second
request was for a bottle of
water.
Its amazing how mountain
ranges, regions and even cli-
mate differences once set forth
the dialects that separated the
various expressions of the Eng-
lish language in our country.
In the area where I was
raised, southern Adams
County, Indiana, the dividing
line of dialect differences was
said to be the Wabash River.
snap of the football and the
marching of high school bands.
Sunday morning, pipe organs
and stained glass windows
were a part of the atmosphere
of many who chose to attend
worship. Our nation celebrated
the 50th year anniversary of the
accomplishments and dreams
of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
I never cease to be amazed
about those things that bring us
together; danger from without,
challenges, traditions and
human love that is passed from
heart to heart. People in Europe,
Asia and South America em-
brace their children, embrace in
family love and cry over broken
hearts. In spite of different lan-
guages and dialects, some
things transcend speech.
And as people on different
sides of the river pronounce
things differently, easterners
and westerners look at things
differently and different cul-
tures still impact our view of
the human family, things such
as love, hurt, religious expres-
sion, tragedy, hope, generosity
and hugs still bring us together
into one great human family.
In reality, it is the way
worded in that great unifying
hymn, In Christ there is no
east or west, in Him no south
or north, but one great fellow-
ship of love throughout the
whole wide earth.
A new informational kiosk has been installed at the Black Swamp
Nature Center in Paulding. This was an Eagle Scout project for Brad
Matson (left) of Boy Scout Troop 315, Paulding, and was funded by

Ohio Agriculture Dept. working to identify cause of dog illnesses
REYNOLDSBURG The
Ohio Department of Agricul-
ture is working with animal
health experts to determine
the cause and origin of a se-
ries of dog illnesses in the
state. The department is also
urging veterinarians in the
state to contact the Division
of Animal Health if they sus-
pect any animals in their care
are suffering from the same
disease.
The departments Division
of Animal Health has been
taking reports of severe dog
illnesses in several parts of
the state for the past three
weeks. Affected dogs have
exhibited similar symptoms
including vomiting, bloody
diarrhea, weight loss and
lethargy. Although there are
several known causes of these
symptoms in dogs, it is gen-
erally believed that there is an
unknown contributor to the
cases.
While we continue to
work diligently to identify
what is making these dogs
sick, we are asking Ohios
veterinarians to help by con-
tacting our laboratory for
consultation if they suspect
they are treating a related
case, said State Veterinarian
Dr. Tony Forshey.
Veterinarians can also help
by sharing information on
what pet owners should look
for and how they can protect
their dogs.
Owners of dogs with simi-
lar symptoms should contact
their veterinarian immedi-
ately. The department has
also recommended concerned
dog owners take standard pre-
cautions used to reduce the
spread of viral infections, in-
cluding monitoring the animal
closely for signs of illness and
refraining from co-mingling
them with other dogs.

Wayne Trace gets big
win over Otsego, 65-0
Key battle with Crestview this Friday
By KEVIN
WANNEMACHER
Sportswriter
HAVILAND Wayne Trace
broke open a close game with
a pair of second quarter scores
as the Raiders recorded a huge
65-0 win over Otsego Friday
night at Raider Field.
The Raiders held a slim 8-0
lead after one quarter of action
but followed that up with two
second quarter touchdowns
that made it 24-0 at the inter-
mission. Wayne Trace then
sealed the win with a 28-point
third stanza that ballooned the
advantage to 52-0.
Wayne Traces victory
makes the Raiders 2-0 and also
was a key win over a Division
IV school in the playoff chase,
which could result in some big
points over the course of the
season if Otsego is able to post
victories.
As big as the win Friday
was, this weeks contest may
prove to be just as big or bigger
as rival Crestview makes the
trip to Paulding County in a
battle of teams looking to claim
playoff berths in Division VI,
Region 20.
Currently, Wayne Trace
stands first in the region while
Crestview is seventh with both
teams standing 2-0.
We have had this game cir-
cled on the calendar for a year,
noted Raider head coach Bill
Speller. This is the one we
have been waiting on and it is
a big one for both playoff pur-
poses and as a rivalry.
The Knights opened the sea-
son with a 21-0 win at Parkway
before following that up with a
41-18 blitzing of Hicksville last
week.
Crestview defeated Wayne
Trace 40-28 last season in Con-
voy, a loss that kept the Raiders
out of the playoffs despite a 9-
1 record.
They are a good football
team and they will come in
here ready to go, Speller con-
tinued. But we have had 40-
28 on our wall for a long time
as a reminder to what hap-
pened last year.
In Fridays win over Otsego,
Colby Speice threw for four
touchdowns and ran for an-
other to lead the red, white and
blue to the victory.
Speice finished the night 23
of 36 through the air for 350
yards with touchdown passes
of 28, 14, 2 and 22. Jake Arend
posted eight receptions for 107
yards, including scoring strikes
of 22 and 2. Korbin Showalter
and Jake Gerber also had
touchdown catches.
Rylen Asher led the Raider
offense with 62 yards rushing
on eight carries. Asher also had
a key interception just before
halftime that kept the Knights
off the scoreboard and kept the
momentum on Wayne Traces
side.
That was a big play by
Rylen, added the Raider men-
tor. Its a different game if
they are able to score there.
Showalter also had a
79-yard interception return for
a score.
Korbin came up with a big
interception as well, contin-
ued Speller. He showed his
speed there on the return and I
think that really took the wind
out of them after that play.
Jared Sherry and Gabe
Wobler each had touchdown
runs for the red, white and blue
and Wobler hooked up with
Cole Shepherd on a 15-yard
toss for another score.
Its a good win for us but
now we have to come back and
get ready for Crestview, con-
cluded Speller.

Archers king of the
hill over Cadets
By JOE SHOUSE
Sportswriter
WEST UNITY It took a
while to be exact it was Oct.
21, 2011. That was the last
time the Antwerp Archers
walked off the football field
with a victory. The Archers
defeated Ayersville 26-21 to
complete the 2011 season
with one win. Last year,
Antwerp went 0-10 so this
past Friday night when the
Archers ran past the Hilltop
Cadets, 30-18, it was time to
celebrate.
This was fun. Its been a
while, but to see the look in
the kids eyes when it was
over and to give them a few
extra minutes to celebrate on
the field was a great feeling,
said Antwerp head coach
Drew Altimus.
Antwerp set the tone early
with an opening drive result-
ing in an Archer touchdown.
Sophomore Bryce Hall
capped off the drive with a
31-yard scamper to put the
Paulding County visitors on
top 6-0 a lead they would
hold on to throughout the
contest.
I liked the way we started
out. We took the ball down
the field on that opening drive
and it was huge for us, said
Altimus.
The coach went on to say,
The first touchdown gave us
the needed confidence to con-
tinue to play hard. You could
see it in our body language as
we built our lead.
The second quarter saw the
Archers play aggressive de-
fense while holding the
Cadets out of the end zone.
Antwerp added another score
prior to halftime on a three-
yard burst by sophomore Jus-
tice Clark. Needing to
connect on the two-point con-
version, Derek Smalley found
Clark open for the successful
toss for a 14-0 halftime ad-
vantage.
Hilltop received a wake-up
call at halftime and responded
with a quick strike from their
quarterback Quinn Smith who
connected to Chad Champion
for a 61-yard score. The point-
after failed allowing the
Archers to remain in front, 14-
6.
Antwerp answered with sen-
ior Tyler Messman make his
presence known on both of-
fense and defense. The 200-
pound fullback answered with
a one-yard plunge in the third
period to keep the Archers in
control. The two-point attempt
was good to increase the
Antwerp lead 22-6.
Tyler had a great game on
both offense and defense. He
totaled 103 yards on the ground
and had a pick-six in the
fourth quarter, said Altimus.
Antwerps last touchdown
came in the final period of play
when Messman snagged an in-
terception and returned the
pigskin six yards for the score.
Smalley was on the receiving
end of a successful two-point
conversion to give the Archers
its largest lead, 30-6.
We had much better effort
tonight. Our game last week
with Edon was a disappoint-
ment, but tonight we were fo-
cused and ready to play.
Several guys made huge con-
tributions including Mess-
man, Smalley, Hall and
Clark. Devan Hall and Smal-
ley, both captains, both sen-
iors, were outstanding, said
Altimus.
Hilltop came back late in
the game with a couple of
touchdowns. Trailing 30-18,
the Cadets attempted an on-
side kick that failed and the
Archers retained the ball and
ran out the clock.
Antwerp (1-1) finished
with 308 yards of offense and
will prepare for their first
home game this Friday when
county rival Paulding comes
calling for a 7 p.m. kick off.
This was one of the most
satisfying wins as a coach.
When you have the lead, you
are able to make calls and that
really means something as a
coach. It was so much fun
watching the guys react when
the clock finally went to
zero, said Altimus.
Walking off the field, the
veteran coach admitted he
didnt know if he felt happy or
relieved.

Hilltop 0 0 6 12 - 18

Panthers drop NWC tilt
to Delphos Jefferson
By JIM LANGHAM
Sportswriter
PAULDING Paulding
fell behind Delphos Jefferson,
10-0, at the end of the first
quarter and then went on to
lose, 41-0, in a Northwest
Conference game at home on
Friday evening.
Early success for Delphos
(2-0) came to a screeching
halt, however, due to a seri-
ous injury to a member of the
Panthers kick return team.
The lengthy delay to take care
of the injured Paulding player
seemed to stall the momen-
tum for the Wildcats.
Jefferson jumped out to a
21-0 advantage at the end of
the first half and advanced to
a 28-0 lead at the end of three
quarters. Delphos offense
held Paulding (0-2) to just 68
yards of offense.
We had a couple of
glimpses of what we are ca-
pable of playing, but it all
comes back to consistency,
said Paulding head coach
Kyle Coleman. We will
work hard on that this week
and prepare to come back to
play next week.
This Friday, the Panthers
will take on county rival
Antwerp at the Archer field.
Coleman said that one of
the things the squad will be
doing in practice this week is
simplifying things a little.
We want to simplify
things some so that we can
play a little faster, said Cole-
man. Were going to have to
simplify on both sides of the
football.
Coleman said that the Pan-
thers need to continue ap-
proaching games on the basis
of their own strength, not based
on what the other team does.
We need to be concerned
about what we do on offense,
defense and our special
teams, we cant worry about
what the other team does,
continued Coleman.
