James was 72 years old when referred to hospice with end stage chronic airway obstruction and colon cancer. James was born and raised in Scioto County. He served in the infantry during the Korean Conflict and for 27 years following his army discharge he and his wife, Wanda, lived and worked in Cincinnati and then in Columbus, Ohio. James managed a service station in Cincinnati and next worked for Lenox heating and air-conditioning in Columbus. But James and Wanda always considered the small country town of Otway their home. They even maintained a house there so they could return on the weekends. When James became disabled in 1982, they retired to Otway. James and Wanda loved, embraced and served their community and church. James served as deacon and Sunday school director for five local Baptist churches. They both enthusiastically participated in and organized numerous community fund raising projects. But now for “the rest of the story”, James has one of the most unique testimonies of spiritual conversion I’ve ever heard. His life was not always characterized by a faith in God. Wanda shared, “James used to be a heavy drinker, he drank almost every day and even carried a fifth of whiskey in his lunch box. He drank so much he got down to 127 pounds.” He’d promised his mother that he would change before she died in 1970, but he wouldn’t make good on his promise for another two years. Now this is where the story gets really interesting. James began, “Me and

reminds me of the Biblical account of Balaam and his donkey (Numbers Chapter 22). Balaam, against God’s direct orders, accepted a commission to curse God’s people, the Hebrews. While in route, riding on the back of his donkey, his donkey saw an angel blocking their path with a sword drawn in his hand so the donkey refused to proceed. Balaam, unable to see the angel, struck the donkey, but the donkey brushed up against a wall and crushed Balaam’s foot and finally just laid down. Balaam struck the donkey again, and this is where this story gets really interesting: “Then the Lord opened the mouth of the donkey, and said to Balaam, ‘What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times? Am I not your donkey on which you have ridden, ever since I became yours?” Well, Balaam finally got the message. God allowed him to continue but Balaam’s heart and purpose changed as well as his outcome. In retrospect, if God used a donkey to change the direction of Balaam’s life He could use a mounted moose head to change the direction and outcome of James’. It just goes to show, God surely “works in mysterious ways”. God, in his love, will use whatever it takes to get our attention, to redirect us from our path of self destruction. Hopefully we will be smart enough to realize that it is God speaking to us. Loren Hardin is a hospice social worker at Southern Ohio Medical Center and can be reached at hardinl@somc.org or at 740-356-2525.
my wife’s uncle always went to the Riverside Bar and Grill after work in Columbus. We would drink from about 11 in the evening to two o’clock in the morning, until the bar closed. There was a LOREN HARDIN large STRAIGHT PATHS moose head mounted on the wall behind the bar. One night, after about ten doubles, I looked up at the moose and its eyes looked like they were glaring back and forth at me. Then I heard the moose say to me, ‘This is your night. You better change your ways It’s your last chance.’ It scared me to death so I called a taxi to take me home. I asked the driver if he drank and he said, ‘Yes’, so I gave him my six pack of beer and the fifth of whiskey that I carried in my lunch box.” Wanda continued the story, “As soon as he got home he told me, ‘I have to get saved!’ I thought he was losing his mind, but I knew something must have happened, because I didn’t think he would ever give away his last beer. He told me, ‘You have to take me to your Mom and Dad’s right away.’ It was about five o’clock in the morning by then. But we went and Mom and Dad prayed with him and he got saved that night.” James assured me, “That actually happened on Feb. 26, 1972. I just wasn’t smart enough back then to know that it wasn’t the moose that was talking to me, but the Holy Spirit.” James’ conversion

"We have lots of donors this year," said HSAC Advisor, Jessica Huxmann. "People have been very generous, and all the funds we raise tonight go to the Humane Society in West Union." Huxmann said the money raised during the auction is used to cover operating costs, vet fees, gasoline for transporting animals to vets, and to pay for gas for humane agent Melissa Downs who does all the investigation work. Humane Society board member and volunteer Karen Franklin of Peebles was honored at the event for her community service and commitment to the welfare of animals. "Karen has distinguished herself by going above and beyond the call of duty to help animals throughout the region, often at great personal and financial sacrifice," Huxmann said. "Her actions have saved thousands of animals' lives and prevented much animal suffering." County Commissioners Paul Worley, Brian Baldridge, and Ty Pell joined Huxmann to present the Community Service Award to Franklin. "We're so pleased to be here tonight to present this award to Karen," said Worley. "Her work and dedication to animals and her community is worthy of emulation." In addition to her work with the Humane Society, Franklin is an active community volunteer. "She checks on the elderly in the community, making sure they have food and that they make it to their doctor appointments," said Huxmann. "She takes care of their pets and helps to pay their vet bills so they can keep their pets in their homes, and don't have to give them up." Franklin is the only remaining member of the original Humane Society Board and is also one of the founders of the low cost spay and neuter

One of the unique items at the Howl-O-Ween Auction was the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Keep the Sheep.â&#x20AC;? The winning bidder keeps the stuffed sheep for a year, documents all its travels, then brings it back next year to be auctioned again. Rascal Clinic in Adams County. "Animals are a part of my life, and I just can't stand to see them suffer or be abused," she said. "It's very close to my heart." Franklin has worked with the HSAC since 2005, "They can't get rid of me," she jokes. "I'll be here forever. The Humane Society was formed in 2005, and is a non-profit 501c3 organization dedicated to providing humane care and treatment for all the animals they shelter. "We are not affiliated with the U.S. Humane Department," said Huxmann. "All of our funding comes from private donations and grants." The shelter's annual operating budget of $7080,000 supports a small staff of employees who do the day-to-day work at the animal shelter 365 days a year. "The shelter itself is only a year old," said Althea Throckmorton, Humane Society Director. "The next step is managing and growing it and seeing what we need to do to help the animals in Adams County. It is more important than ever that we do what we can to help the community with services for homeless dogs and cats. In return we are employee. "We'll have pork tenderloin for $3 and hot dogs for $1 for those who don't like pork." For Prather's long-time employees and customers, the sale is a throwback Thursday event. "We used to have business people come in and bag groceries for our
dependent on the community for our support." The shelter houses about 20 dogs and up to 46 cats, as well providing a temporary home for a number of animals in foster care. "We are always looking for donations of supplies for the shelter such as fleece blankets, bleach, Dawn dish soap, gas cards to help with travel expenses, and volunteers to come into the shelter and help us take care of the animals," said Huxmann. The HSAC is also committed to providing educational and volunteer programs to the citizens of Adams County concerning the humane treatment and prevention of cruelty, abuse, neglect, and exploitation of animals. The society works to reduce the county's pet over-population by offering low cost spay and neuter clinics. "We give back to the community by offering low cost spay and neuter clinics" said Huxmann. "In 2017 we'll begin doing it twice a month, every other month because so many people use the Humane Society to obtain services from the Rascal Clinic based in Columbus." For more information about the Humane Society of Adams County, please Celebrity Days," said Nichols. "We want to bring that kind of thing back to the IGA, that's why we've invited the candidates to join us and get face-to-face with the community." Look for the Prather's IGA Special Sale ad in the Oct. 30 and Nov. 2 editions of the Peoples Defender.

Jack-O-Nation Facebook page and the event has drawn hundreds of visitors each weekend throughout the month of October. "People are coming in groups, whole families," Partin said. "Our chalets in the back are being rented on airbnb.com, they're completely full and sold out for the next two months." Partin says he hopes to see more local people attending the event, "It's going to take time, we want local people to come too, but right now we're attracting a different crowd on airbnb." Art students from Manchester, West Union, Peebles, Eastern Brown, Western Brown, and Venture Productions created the animation-themed pumpkin art for the month-long event. "We didn't tell them how to decorate the pumpkins," Partin says. "We told them, just cut a hole in the bottom and have at it. We've had people from as far away as Pennsylvania, Cleveland, and Michigan come and stay three to five hours to see the kids' artwork, the unfortunate thing is every two weeks we have to totally replace the pumpkins." Visitors follow lighted
trails through the park's woodland areas where displays of Jack-O-Lanterns flicker and glow from bridges, creek beds, and fallen logs. The family-friendly, wheelchair-accessible event also features outdoor theater productions, hayrides, a bounce house and hay bale maze, face painting and crafts for kids, a computer animated display with singing pumpkins, massive animals made from round hay bales, concessions, and a state-of-the-art light show called Pixel City. Created by computer students from the Career and Technical Center in West Union, the Pixel City light show was designed using multiple reels of multi-colored pixels programmed in sync with music. "The students chose the music and programmed the lights to correspond to the music without even seeing what it would look like here," said Partin. "It's just amazing, these kids don't realize how good they are." A Christmas show is in the works at the park, but Partin says he has no idea yet what that will look like. "We're learning, this is our first year and we're learning. Next year we 'll have even more, and Pixel City will be a lot bigger than it is now."

Students had the option to paint, design, or carve pumpkins. Students painted their pumpkins to look like their favorite cartoon or Disney characters or decorated their pumpkins with a variety of zentangle designs. Other students carved their pumpkins to look like scary monsters, or silhouettes of fairies, cats or various spooky words.

Peebles Village Council holds October meeting PRESS RELEASE
WUHS FFA attends National Convention SUBMITTED BY JAMIE PUCKETT
Members of the West Union High School FFA recently traveled to Indianapolis, Indiana to participate in the 89th annual National FFA Convention and Expo. The theme for the convention this year was "Transform." According to national FFA headquarters, "The
future of agriculture is strong and as the population continues to grow, so does the need for a healthy and abundant food supply. Together, FFA members can continue to educate others on the importance of agriculture." At the convention, students were exposed to different techniques for agriculture production and agriculture business. The FFA students learned about healthy eating, national
drought, and agricultural safety. They also learned about non-agricultural issues such as bullying, communication, and the political future of the world. Lastly, the students visited with local businesses and colleges. It was a truly multicultural experience for our West Union FFA members as they met other students from all over the United States at the convention.

4-H Maker Festival Held at Shawnee State University West Union People’s Defender
SUBMITTED BY CAROLYN BELCZYK
OSU Extension staff from four counties collaborated with Shawnee State University faculty, students, and staff to provide a Maker Festival for members of the 4-H Tech Wizards program on Saturday, Oct. 22. The Festival was held at Shawnee and featured tours and demonstrations in the Chemistry, Plastics Engineering Technology, and Gaming Simulation departments; a stop in the University Center; and Maker Stations and demonstrations in the Teacher Education Building. More than 65 4-H Tech Wizards from Adams, Jackson, Lawrence, and Scioto counties participated in the event with their adult and teen mentors. The 4-H Tech Wizards program is funded through a grant from the 4-H National Mentoring Program with the goals of providing youth with strong positive adult and teen role models and opportunities to participate in a variety of authentic STEM experiences. The event at Shawnee exposed participants to multiple STEM focused majors and potential careers and provided youth with opportunities to explore and participate in a variety of STEM activities at the Maker stations. Each of the 4-H Tech Wizards groups provided and staffed a Maker station. The Lawrence County group provided the Hay Kicker or Pumpkin Chunkin’ station, where youth engineered a catapult. Scioto County provided and staffed an Ag Bot station, where youth engineered harvesting equipment powered by Hex Bugs. The Jackson County group provided KEVA plank activities, and the group from Adams County provided two stations: a Color Blob activity staffed by North Adams Elementary School 4-H Tech Wizards youth and mentors, and Sphero Chariot Races, staffed by Peebles Elementary School teen mentors. Additional Maker stations and demonstrations included a 3-D printing demonstration and LED light saber activity provided by Jamie Seger and family. Seger is an education technology specialist with the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences (CFAES) at The Ohio State University. Eric Romich, a field specialist in energy development with OSU Extension based in Ottawa County, provided a solar demonstrator unit and related solar energy activities. Joe, Jo, and Jason Shuman, active members and advisors with the Ross County 4-H program, provided a robotics demonstration and related activities. In addition, Adams County 4-H teens staffed several stations. Molly Bauman, Otway, worked with youth to make solar cockroaches; Kelsea Hamilton, West Union, staffed the LED ghosts sta-

tion; and Jace Howard, Stout, worked with youth to create circuits and play pianos with marshmallows, fruits, and vegetables using Makey Makey kits and software. Dr. Xiaodan Huang, Professor and Chair, Department of Teacher Education at Shawnee, and Timothy Davis, Coordinator, Clinical and Field Experience, worked with OSU Extension staff Carolyn Belczyk, Adams County and Jo Williams and Josi Brodt-Evans, Scioto County, to plan and implement the event. The Maker stations and demonstrations were held in the Teacher Education Building, just off campus, and students from that and other departments on campus led the tours. Drs. Skip Miller and Adam Miller and their students in Engineering Technology facilitated the demonstrations and activities in the Plastics Engineering Technology and Gaming Simulation departments, and Dr. Andy Napper facilitated the demonstrations and activities in the Chemistry department. Participating 4-H Tech Wizards received a goodie bag from Shawnee State University and a tour of the University Center, as well. Apples for the event were donated by Fuhrmann Orchards, LLC, Minford, OH. The Maker Movement is part of the global do-ityourself, innovation movement sweeping the globe. Maker Faires® and festivals are held around the world. According to Paul Hill, Specialist with Utah State University Extension, “‘Making’ is gaining traction as a strategy to engage young people in building their science abilities. A Maker is someone who makes stuff: robots, crafts, furniture, art, or electronic gadgets. Riding the wave of the Maker Movement should be critically important to 4-H programs because many of these Maker projects incorporate a variety of STEM topics.” Participants in the event at Shawnee had a great time, while experiencing STEM. They had some fun, met and interacted with 4-H Tech Wizards from other counties, and were exposed to several STEM focused majors and potential careers during the campus tour portion of the program.

Ornamental grasses add winter interest Ornamental grasses make excellent screen plants to hide unsightly propane tanks and air conditioners, or for privacy around patios and decks. They develop faster than shrubs. Professional designers mix a variety of grasses with perennial flowers and woody plants, sometimes massing them for showy effects. Grasses range in size from tiny pillows less than a foot tall to huge clumps over ten feet tall. They come in a range of colors from dusty blue to pink and purple. Maintaining grasses is easy. Most grasses grow in nice neat clumps, and need only a once-a-year haircut. They live for years, are tolerant of drought and don’t attract pests or diseases. Fertilizing each year will help them look their best; a pound or two of Plant Tone scattered around the root zone is all they need. Established grasses tend to die out in the middle of the clump, which then becomes a ring or donut shape. This is because they exhaust the soil in the middle. To revive them, simply cut out the middle of the clump and add some topsoil and plant food. You should cut grasses down to the ground once a year, when they are dormant (between late fall and early spring). Some grasses make a mess in the winter, but most will stay nice and neat to provide winter interest. Birds like the seed heads, so leaving them until
spring provides forage for our feathered friends. A good way to compare grasses is by looking at the size they will be when they are fully grown. This way you’ll be sure to space them properly and allow enough space for them to develop to their fullest. Most grasses do best in full sun with plenty of moisture, but the most popular grasses are quite adaptable and will do well almost anywhere. Hardy grasses are perennials and will return each year larger. Here’s a rundown on some of our favorites: Miscanthus, commonly called “maiden grass”, has a very graceful habit, softly drooping and waving gently with the slightest breeze. Some have “zebra stripes’, others have stripes along the leaves. Miscanthus are great for privacy or screen plantings, and come in many sizes. Pennisetum, or “fountain grass” is another popular grass family. Most have showy pink seed heads.

LOCAL NEWS
Pennisetums work well in perennial borders or foundation plantings, mixed with flowering plants and shrubs. Our favorites are “Hameln”, “Little Bunny”. “Karley Rose” and “Moudry”. Some grasses have an upright form that works well in tight spaces. The popular “Karl Foerster” feather reed grass has attractive wheat-like seed stalks that stand straight up, great for mixing with foundation shrubs and hiding unsightly utility meters. Panicum “Shenandoah” gradually turns purple during the season, and grows in a tidy upright clump that looks great in foundation plantings. Pay attention to the hardiness zone when buying ornamental grasses, or you could buy varieties that aren’t hardy perennials in this area. Southwest Ohio is in Zone six, so you should look for zone six, five or four. People often ask us for “pink pampas grass”, shown often in mail order catalogs but not hardy in Ohio winters. Red fountain grass is popular for planters. We think of both of these as annuals and pay less for them than perennial grasses. Steve Boehme and his wife Marjorie own GoodSeed Farm Landscapes, a design-build landscape/hardscape installer specializing in outdoor living spaces.

Veterinarian Feed Directive Programs planned Last week I discussed the Veterinarian Feed Directive that will become the standard as of Jan. 1, 2017. This will change the way antibiotics can be used in feed for livestock producers. There will be a number of educational opportunities in the area in the next few weeks. These training sessions that will give producers the opportunity to listen to the rules and regulations. This will also be an opportunity to ask questions and find out how these changes will impact your operation in the future when it comes to managing the prevention of illness in your livestock. Here is a list of educational opportunities that I am currently aware of in the area. I am sure more will be added soon. Cherry Fork Farm Supply will begin with social hour from 5- 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 15. Dinner will begin at 6 p.m. and the program begins at 6:30 p.m. at the Cherry Fork Community Center. Please RSVP by Nov. 12 at the mill (937) 695-0264. The topics will include: New Regulations and Use of Certain Antibiotics; A Veterinarian’s Perspective of How the Process Will Work; Which Antibiotics are affected and Product Availability; and Feed Company Reaction and Your Current Feeds. Master Feed Mill in Hillsboro will be presenting a program on Nov. 17 at the Elk’s in Hillsboro at 6:30 p.m. The date and location is tentative at this time. I will have more details next week. Union Stockyards will also host an educational program for the VFD on Nov. 29 at the yards. The meal will be at 6 p.m. and the meeting will begin at 7 p.m. There may be more added in the near future.

will try to keep dates and times in this column.
Have You Stored Your Sprayers?
Here we are in the last week of October and only had a light frost on Tuesday morning. Harvest has had very little interruptions due to weather this year, so there has not been much down time unless it has been mechanical problems. With this weather harvest of grain, or planting of wheat, has been a priority for many producers this time of the year. Hopefully all sprayers were cleaned and rinsed out properly when they were last used. Were they also winterized? This is something I normally think of about 8 p.m. on the night the forecast is calling for below freezing temperatures for the first time in the fall. There has been at least once that it didn’t hit me and I had problems the following spring. Yes cracks and splits in equipment that caused some delay in getting things done the following spring. There is a good article in the CORN newsletter that addresses the proper ways to clean, rinse and winterize your spray equipment to prevent damage to the equipment. The entire

In the next few weeks you may still need that sprayer to control problem weeds like Poison Hemlock. This year has been especially bad for some weeds. Johnson grass was a problem and remember it can be a problem in fields that are being grazed. The problem can be from drought like conditions and nitrate poisoning or even worse with prussic acid after a killing frost. The Poison Hemlock is the one that you may want to spray in the next few weeks. This is a plant that will stay green for a while after the first frost and continue to grow for some time. It will be primed and ready to take off in the early spring, so controlling it now may be your best option. Products like crossbow or 2,4D will do a good job on it this fall. Preferably spray on a warm fall day and then be prepared to go back in the spring to clean up what you may have missed with the first application.

Last Week: 7-7-1 Season: 54-52-1 TNF: Jacksonville at Tennessee – The AFC South is very bad, Houston’s loss puts them at 4-3, which is the best in the division. Gus Bradley may be nearing the end if things don’t turn around quickly. Marcus Mariota will do just enough to get the victory. TEN 23 JAX 17 Washington at Cincinnati – Another NFL London game which is a travesty to all NFL fans, espeScott Dryden cially Guest those Columnist of the home team. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell continues to display his ineptitude and lack of consideration for players’ health. On the field, this a big game for teams with playoff aspirations. Andy Dalton and Kirk Cousins are similar quarterbacks, the Bengals defense is the difference. CIN 24 WASH 20 Kansas City at Indianapolis – The Colts are in the thick of the AFC South race despite being below .500. The Chiefs are 4-2 in a very tight AFC West. Given the play of Indianapolis’ offensive line, Andrew Luck will no doubt take a beating. Luck is a tough customer but KC’s secondary can also cause problems. In a tight contest, the KC defense provides pressure throughout. KC 27 IND 24 Oakland at Tampa Bay – These two franchises squared off in Super Bowl XXXVII – i.e. the Gruden Bowl. Since then, both franchises have struggled. The Raiders appear to be on the right path – sitting at 5-2. The Buccaneers expected a great start to the 2016 season – that hasn’t been the case. However, they have battled back to 3-3. Jameis Winston will have success but Derek Carr outduels the 2015 number one pick. OAK 31 TB 27 Seattle at New Orleans The Hawks come off an overtime low scoring tie in Arizona. Their defense will face a much bigger challenge in Drew Brees and the high flying Saints. The contradiction of styles should make for a very interesting ball game. Russell Wilson bounces back with the Seattle defense harassing Brees throughout. SEA 31 NO 24 Detroit at Houston – The Lions are a pleasant surprise thus far. Matthew Stafford has played very well in leading his squad to a 4-3 record. The Texans, also 4-3, have been a disappointment. The free agent signing of Brock Osweiler has yet to pay dividends. In a tight contest, the Texans eke out a home victory. HOU 24 DET 20 New York Jets at Cleveland – The Browns are still looking for their first victory. If they were facing Geno Smith as planned, the odds of getting the elusive victory would be much greater. Smith is lost for the season

Headed to the District Finals
North Adams girls Southeastern 4-1 BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER It was a perfect fall night for soccer on Wednesday night in Waverly and it turned out to be a near perfect night of soccer for Coach Dave D'Avignon and his North Adams Lady Devils as they faced off with the Southeastern Lady Panthers in a Southeast District Division III district semi-final contest. The Lady Devils were looking to avenge one of their two losses on the season and they did it in convincing fashion, breaking a second half 1-1 tie with three unanswered goals to claim the 4-1 win and a berth in the Saturday, Oct. 29 district championship game. It has been a record-setting season for the North Adams girls and that continued with Wednesday night's win, as they became the first girls soccer team in school history to advance to a district
top
title game, and picked up Coach D'Avignon's 250th win as a varsity high school coach. “The girls were loose,” said Coach “D”. “They were singing and having a great time on the bus ride over here. They were ready to play. They have been working hard all year to get where they are right now. I don't know how far this ride will go, but they are just now reaching their potential as a team. As a coach, it's great to see. After the game, the girls were as happy as could possibly be. The win felt good!” Playing on the beautiful green turf of the Waverly football field, the Lady Devils made an early statement, in fact a “less than two minutes into the game” statement. With 38:08 showing on the first half clock, a centering pass by North Adams' Abby Shupert was intercepted by a Southeastern defender who cleared the ball, but right to the wait-

Those next 38 minutes were a scoreless and physical defensive struggle, and the Lady Devils went to the intermission still clinging to the precarious one-goal advantage. Six minutes into the second half, the lead was gone as Southeastern's
Kali Mitten tied the score. A questionable foul was called on North Adams' Taylor Hesler and the Lady Panther's Audrey Wheeler took the free kick and chipped it over the defense to Mitten who won a one-on-one showdown with Lady Devils' goalie Madee Shipley, but that was to be the only time that Shipley was beaten all night. The sign of a good team is the ability to answer
adversity and just four minutes later, the Lady Devils did just that and took the lead for good on an unusual goal, but a goal nonetheless. About 20 yards out, North Adams' Kitasha Mesmer made a long throw-in towards the goal, but it was cleared back by the Lady Panthers, only to see Mesmer track it down and

Freedom Field hosts Super Saturday for youth football Sugar Bowl, Rose Bowl, and Super Bowl champions crowned BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER
A beautiful sunny fall afternoon turned into a chilly football weather evening on Saturday, Oct. 22 as Freedom Field in West Union played host to the finale of the 2016 season for the youth football teams of the Southern Ohio Independent League. Four games were set on the gridiron, beginning with an Elementary JV game deemed the Sugar Bowl, then an Elementary Varsity contest known as the Rose Bowl, then concluding with the Elementary JV and Varsity title games, called the Super Bowls. The day was hosted by the North Adams football program and was a big success with big crowds full of excited parents and family members, along with eight teams of excited youngsters on the football field. First up was a match up between a pair of third and fourth grade squads, West Union battling the Southern Buckeye Warriors in the “Sugar Bowl.” It was the Dragons scoring first with 1:23 left in the first quarter on a touchdown run by Landen Fulton and the two-point conversion run by Wyatt Traylor to lead 8-0. With 5:25 to go in the second period, the Dragons scored again on a TD run by Landen Campbell and two-point run by Jaden Cockrill to stretch their lead to 16-0. With 1:34 to go on the first half, West Union got a long touchdown jaunt from Gavin Jarvis to lead 22-0, but the Warriors marched right down before the intermission to get a scoring run from Landen See NFL Picks / B3 Koehler and it looked like that would be it for the
first half, but the Dragons had other ideas. On the final play of the half, West Union got a touchdown pass from Fulton to Jarvis Mark Carpenter | People’s Defender and a two-point conversion to lead 30-6 at the West Union Dragons vs. Southern Buckeye Warriors- JV Sugar Bowl break. In the third quarter, the Dragons got a touchdown run from Cockrill to take a 38-6 lead and enforce the running clock rule used by high school teams in the state. That caused the rest of the game to fly by rather rapidly and when the final seconds ran out, the Dragons had taken the Sugar Bowl by that final count of 38-6. Next up was the fifth and sixth grade battle, the “Rose Bowl”, pitting West Union versus Manchester. This one was all Dragons behind the strong running of Domonick Webb as they blanked the Greyhounds 18-0. The scoring began early for the winners, in fact within the Mark Carpenter | People’s Defender first minute, as Colby Harover rushed in and West Union Dragons vs. Manchester Greyhounds- Varsity Rose Bowl stripped the ball from the Greyhound quarterback and took it all the way for the score and a 6-0 advantage. Later in the first quarter, a long TD run by Harover put West Union in front 12-0. With 2:56 left in the first half, the Dragons were on the board again on another Harover run and led at halftime 18-0. That is how the game ended as neither team crossed the goal line in the final two periods, though the Hounds got close in the final stanza but were turned away by a strong West Union goal line stand as the Dragons celebrated a win in the Rose Bowl.

launch a rainbow towards the back post and teammate Abby Shupert was right on the spot for the tap-in and the 2-1 lead. As the on-field action intensified, no one supporting the Lady Devils thought that a one-goal lead was safe, and with 9:34 to play, those fears were dimmed by North Adams freshman Alaina Eiterman. When Lakyn Hupp got control of the ball and made a run with a defender right on her hip, she fired a shot that the Southeastern goalie mishandled and Eiterman was right on the spot to knock it home and give her team a 3-1 advantage. With nine minutes left, it was time for the Lady Devils to protect the twogoal lead, which they did to perfection, and just for good measure, added a goal in the final minute. Playing with two forwards and an extra defender, Hesler controlled the ball near midfield and passed the ball forward to Mesmer. The North Adams senior flicked the ball over her head, turned, gathered it in, and fired a shot from 10 yards out for the score. Coach D'Avignon substituted for the senior after her goal, as she left the game with large tears of joy streaming down her face and 41 seconds later, the final whistle sounded and a wild celebration began on the North Adams sideline and in the stands with their faithful fans. “It was so good to see all the parents, teachers, and friends enjoying the victory,” added Coach D'Avignon. “That kind of support just makes it all more fun for the girls. Everyone stayed around long after the game celebrating, hugging, and taking pictures, just savoring the win.” The 4-1 victory improved North Adams to 13-2-3 on the season and now “boldly sends the Lady Devils to where no team has gone before”, and that is to the district championship game, where they will battle the Wheelersburg Lady Pirates, who stand unbeaten at 150-2, but one of those ties came on Oct. 8 with the Lady Devils, a 1-1 draw.

under the lights and with a bit of chill in the air, but perfect weather for kids to play football, and the Elementary Varsity Super Bowl matched up the North Adams Devils and the Southern Buckeye Warriors. As in the preceding game, the first quarter was scoreless, but the Devils dominated the second stanza, first getting a one-yard scoring run from Ethan Beekman to take a 6-0 lead, and then with 2:14 left in the first half, a long touchdown run by Zane Knechtly put North Adams up 12-0. The Warriors threatened late in the half as two long pass plays put them in scoring position but a bad snap and two quarterback sacks by the Devils' defense snuffed out the scoring opportunity. The third quarter was a defensive showcase, with nothing for either team, but early in the fourth, the
Warriors got on the board after an interception and long return by Quentin Collins led to a later scoring pass that made it 12-6 with 4:52 to play. The Warriors got the ball back with a chance to tie or take the lead but their opportunity was thwarted with another North Adams QB sack on fourth down that gave the ball back to the Devils and they iced the title with another TD run by Beekman and it was time for the North Adams boys and their large contingent of fans to celebrate as their team made it back-to-back Super Bowl titles with the 18-6 win. All in all, and through the efforts of many all season long, Super Saturday was a huge success and proved to many that the future of football in Adams County is very bright.
North Adams wins back to back sectional titles BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE’S DEFENDER
The 2016 season came to a disappointing close on Oct. 22 for the North Adams boys soccer team, but not until they put up quite a fight with the number 12 ranked team in the state in the district semifinals. Facing off in Athens with Zanesville Bishop Rosecrans, the Devils gave the Bishops all they could handle before falling 1-0. “We had our opportunities with their goalie (who is going to Division I Notre Dame), who made some huge saves,” said North Adams head coach Isaac Wooten.
The road to the district began for the Devils with a 4-0 win over Adena, getting two goals from Ben Figgins, and one each from Austin Lloyd and Tray Brand. The North Adams boys won their second consecutive sectional title on Oct. 19 when they edged out fellow SHAC member Fairfield 1-0 on a goal by Brand. The loss in the district semis saw the Devils end their season with a record of 11-5-3. They set school records of 59 goals scored in a season and just 26 goals against, getting solid

PRIME TIME PLAYERS Two weeks ago, Joe Williams was retired from football. Last week, he returned to the Utah team and rushed for 179 yards in a win in at Oregon State. Then, on Saturday, he broke a single-game school record by running for 332 yards and four touchdowns to lead the Utes to a pivotal Pac-12 South win over UCLA. â&#x20AC;Ś Lamar Jackson and the Louisville offense bounced back from a relatively slug-
gish performance in a win vs. Duke with a dominating effort against NC State. Jackson threw for 355 yards with three TDs and no interceptions and added 76 yards rushing to key the Cardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 54â&#x20AC;&#x201C;13 win. â&#x20AC;Ś Jeremy McNichols rushed for 140 yards and one touchdown on 30 carries and caught five passes for 109 yards and one score to help Boise State top BYU 28â&#x20AC;&#x201C;27 on Friday night. McNichols is
2. Notre Dame The Fighting Irish find themselves on this list not only for their 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5 record but also for the teams that have contributed to their five losses. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not exactly a whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s who of the 2016 elite â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Texas (3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;4), Michigan State (2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5), Duke (3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;4), NC State (4â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3) and Stanford (4â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3).
the fifth player in the FBS ranks in 2016 with more than 100 yards rushing and receiving in the same game. â&#x20AC;Ś Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield threw for 545 yards with seven touchdowns and no interceptions, and Sooner tailback Joe Mixon rushed for 263 yards and two scores as OU rolled up 854 yards of offense in its 66â&#x20AC;&#x201C;59 win at Texas Tech. â&#x20AC;Ś Will Worth, who began the season as the backup
quarterback, rushed for 201 yards and three TDs in Navyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 42â&#x20AC;&#x201C;28 win over Memphis in a key AAC West showdown. â&#x20AC;Ś Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Tavius Mathers, a transfer from Ole Miss, rushed for 215 yards on 28 carries to help Middle Tennessee knock off Missouri 51â&#x20AC;&#x201C;45 in Columbia. â&#x20AC;Ś Syracuse QB Eric Dungey threw for 434 yards and added 54 yards on the ground to lead the Orange to a 28â&#x20AC;&#x201C;20 win at Boston College.
3. UCLA The pick by many outlets â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including Athlon Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to win the Pac-12 South title, UCLA is 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;4 in the league after losing at home to Utah on Saturday night. Josh Rosen, one of the most talented quarterbacks in the nation, has missed the last two games with an injury. 4. Stanford The Cardinal, 4â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 overall and 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 in the Pac-12, have been undone by an offense that ranks last in the league in yardage (299.1 ypg) and scoring (17.0 ppg). Christian McCaffrey rushed for an average of 145.3 yards in Stanfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first three games but has been limited to 49, 35 and 92 yards in his last three. 5. Oregon Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a huge surprise that Oregon is not in the hunt for the Pac-12 North title. Still, few expected the Ducks to be 0â&#x20AC;&#x201C;4 in the league, with three of the losses to Colorado, Washington State and California. Oregon has given up at least 50 points in each of its last three games.
NUMBERS TO KNOW All three of the FBS programs in the of Oklahoma â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Oklahoma, 5-2 state Oklahoma State and Tulsa â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2 through seven games. Both of Oklahomaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Tulsaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s losses have come against Houston and Ohio State.
17.8

Rice defeated Prairie View A&M 66â&#x20AC;&#x201C;45 to record its first win of the 2016 season. There are now zero teams without a win.
854
Oklahoma and Texas Tech set a new FBS record for total yards in a game (1,708). Both teams had 854 yards of offense.
STOCK REPORT Auburn won its fourth straight game, rolling to a surprisingly easy 56â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 victory over Arkansas on the strength of a dominating rushing performance. The Tigers ran for 543 yards â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the most ever by a team in an SEC game â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and held Arkansas to 25 rushing yards on 31 attempts. Auburn is 3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1 in the SEC.
NFL Picks
From page B1 with a torn ACL, which will place Ryan Fitzpatrick back under center. Josh McCown should also return as a starter for Cleveland. In a tight contest, the New York defense versus the Cleveland defense is the difference. NYJ 31 CLE 23 New England at Buffalo â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Bills shut out the Patriots in Week Four, albeit without Tom Brady. They will be a motivated group in front of a raucous Buffalo crowd. Rex Ryanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense will not be able to keep up with Brady, Gronk and crew as the Pats move to 7-1 at the half way point. NE 34 BUF 24 Arizona at Carolina â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Cardinals have been a disappointment at 3-3-1 but nowhere near as much as the 1-5 Panthers. Cam
Houston emerged as a candidate to reach the College Football Playoff after opening the season with a win over Oklahoma. Now, almost two months later, the Cougars are an afterthought on the national scene. Tom Hermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team has lost two of its last three games â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 46â&#x20AC;&#x201C;30 at Navy and 38â&#x20AC;&#x201C;16 at SMU.
Newton and his mates must win now. They will need to get on a major winning streak if they plan a return to the playoffs. The Arizona defense has played well but their offense has struggled. Palmer will find it no easier as Newton and the Panthers get a much needed victory. CAR 23 ARI 17 San Diego at Denver â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rookie Joey Bosa is playing at a very high level. He was a big factor in San Diego's surprising win in Atlanta. Phillip Rivers is Phillip Rivers but he will be under duress against the dreaded Bronco pass rush. San Diego is improving but winning in Denver is a very difficult task. DEN 20 SD 17 Green Bay at Atlanta â&#x20AC;&#x201C; This has the makings of a high scoring thriller. The Falcons now appear to be what they are each and
James Franklin recorded by far the most significant win in his two-plus seasons at Penn State as the Nittany Lions rallied from a 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;7 deficit in the fourth quarter to stun previously unbeaten Ohio State 24â&#x20AC;&#x201C;21 on a â&#x20AC;&#x153;white outâ&#x20AC;? night at Beaver Stadium. Penn State is 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2 overall and likely will be favored in each of its final five games.
every year â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a pretender. They got off to a hot start but have now lost two in a row. The Packers are typically the opposite â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a slow start followed by a Rodgers relax exclamation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; then they settle down. In a tight contest, Rodgers and his wide receivers finally find chemistry. GB 30 ATL 27 SNF: Philadelphia at Dallas â&#x20AC;&#x201C; This old rivalry gets a kick in the pants with two rookie quarterbacks. The Eagles looked in trouble following the suspension of Lane Johnson. However, they beat a very good Vikings squad last week. The Cowboys come
Texas lost for the third time in the last four games, dropping a 24â&#x20AC;&#x201C;21 decision at Kansas State. The Longhorns are now 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 in the Big 12 in 2016 and 10â&#x20AC;&#x201C;12 in Charlie Strongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two-plus seasons as the head coach. Strongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tenuous job status will be a major storyline in the final month of the regular season.
off their bye â&#x20AC;&#x201C; an unfair advantage which the NFL continues to ignore. They are led by rookies Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott. Carson Wentz is getting plenty of press, understandably so, but the Philly defense has been a major factor. This should be a fun, testy game on the prime time stage. The Dallas running game along with Wentz turnovers are the difference. DAL 24 PHI 20 MNF: Minnesota at Chicago â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Vikings suffered their first loss of the season last week in Philadelphia. They will be a motivated group but the
Leonard Fournette rushed for 284 yards and three touchdowns on only 16 carries â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for a nifty 17.8-yard average â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in his first game since late September.
50
Bowling Green has given up 50 TDs through eight games and ranks last in the nation in scoring defense (45.1 ppg). The Falcons gave up 50 TDs last season â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in 14 games.

Bears wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t roll over against their old rivals. The biggest Achilles heel for the Vikes is the lack of a running game. They need it to take pressure off of Sam Bradford, which in turn allows their defense to control the game. For the Bears, Jay Cutler returns in what will likely be his last chance. Chicago will keep it close but the nasty Minnesota â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dâ&#x20AC;? is the difference. MIN 23 CHI 16
Devils
From page B2
work all season from keeper Cole Wagner, who broke a school record by recording six shutouts. With the season-ending loss to Rosecrans, the Devils said goodbye to a talented senior class that included Zeke Acosta, Patrick England, Kain Turner, Randall Hayslip, Austin Parks, Lee Hesler, and Ben Figgins. Bye Week: Baltimore, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to thank all of my Los Angeles, Miami, New York Giants, Pittsburgh, San players for their hard work this season and all the parFrancisco ents and faculty for their support,â&#x20AC;? added Wooten. The Devils had two players selected to the Division III All-District Team, Figgins and Lee Hesler, and they will both be playing in the District All-Star Game in Chillicothe on Nov. 5.

Twenty volunteers were at four locations in Adams County to distribute 1500 pounds of potatoes and 552 cans of green beans on Saturday, Oct. 22. It was wonderful weather for this community outreach effort that is an annual project of Democrats in Adams County and part of National Make A Difference Day. National Make A Difference Day is the largest national day of community service and is held annually the fourth Saturday of October. Millions of volunteers around the world unite in a common mission to improve the lives of others. In Adams County, the one-day food project served an estimated 150 families and touched the lives of over 500 people. Those volunteering were:
Martha Bennett, Tory Peterson, Susan Young, Barbara Finnegan, Tom Conroy, Jerry Grooms, Linda Worley, Tim and Vicki Brady, Ethel Chambers, Racheal Stephenson, Patty Shoemaker, Dennis Grooms, Dena Morris, Jack Hendrix, Roy, Amy and Lucy Gabbert, and Steve and Linda Stepp. A few of the volunteers at the Peebles location are pictured above and include, left to right, Tom Conroy, Tim Brady, Barbara Finnegan, Linda Worley and Jerry Grooms. The food distributed was purchased at Prather’s IGA which is a locally owned and operated grocery. The project was made possible from generous individual donations and funding from the Adams County Democrat Club.
