Subsequent briefings to Dr. Teller on this suspected activity during the 1970s and early 1980s caused Dr. Teller to start developing new concepts for the use of directed energy weapons for BMD.

start the Star Wars program.

There he taught various evening computer and networking classes. Joe was a lifetime member of Sigma Xi, the Scientific Research Society. As a young man, he enjoyed piloting small aircraft, parachute jumping, and motorcycle riding. Later, he devoted himself to reading, especially his first love, science fiction, and was invited to serve on panel discussions at several science fiction conventions as the charged particle beam expert. A funeral service to honor his life will begin at 12 p.m. Saturday, at the Jamieson and Yannucci Funeral Home with the Rev. Jack Chalk officiating. Burial will follow in Forest Hill Cemetery.

HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and GINA (Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act) the latter of which was signed into law in May of 2008 by then President George W. Bush. “It’s clear cut that that law was for the purpose of genetic testing,” Jones said about the protection GINA gives to individuals on their insurance coverage. She said such information cannot be released to their employer “so that genetic predisposition could not be used against them.” A great deal of Jones’ work revolves around education on genetic mutations, options for treatment and reassuring patients. “We’re talking high anxiety,” she said. “They’ve just been diagnosed with breast cancer and they may be in their 30s or 40s.” Besides privacy, cost is another anxietyprovoking factor as genetic testing is not cheap. BRAC analysis testing (A test for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer with BRAC standing for breast cancer susceptibility gene) alone, without insurance, can cost in the range of $3,200. “It’s a big chunk of money,” said Jones as she went on to explain that there are programs available for those who are uninsured. “What I’ve been very impressed with,” said Jean Heath, RN and director of the Cancer Care Center at UVMC, on the singular company, Myriad Labs, that performs the genetic testing. “They will not

Guest Column
ith over 14 million Americans still out of work, there is no more urgent priority than spurring job creation in Ohio and across the country. The federal government doesn’t create private-sector jobs, but it can and must create the right climate for entrepreneurs and small businesses to do what they do best — invest, grow, and begin hiring again. At the same time, we must work to ensure that today’s economic woes — from high unemployment, to depressed home values — do not translate into long-term financial instability for American families. One of the less-noted, painful effects of the current economic crisis is that it has left many Americans understandably worried about their retirements. In fact, studies have shown that most baby boomers have not saved nearly enough for their retirement years. Turning that around will require robust policies to help workers plan for financially secure golden years, by incentivizing private savings and sustaining a strong Social Security system. Part of the solution begins with encouraging employers and savers to take advantage of important retirement planning tools available today. Over a decade ago, as members of the U.S. House of Representatives, Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD) and I joined together to craft legislation focused on helping Americans establish and grow their retirement nest eggs. Our bill, which became known as Portman-Cardin, was forged on a bipartisan basis and atROB PORTMAN tracted support from across the political spectrum. The U.S. Senator from Ohio bill was signed into law in June 2001. What we found was that the importance of retirement savings was one area where liberals, moderates, and conservatives could, if they worked at it, all find common ground. Portman-Cardin did not attempt to create a one-sizefits-all approach to retirement savings. Instead, it took important steps to simplify and improve the retirement savings policies already in place. For individuals, IRA and 401(k) contribution limits were increased and a new catch-up contribution was allowed to help those age 50 and older add to their savings each year. The bill made it easier for workers moving from job to job to take their savings with them, and it simplified the process for workers to consolidate their savings when it made sense to do so. For employers who could not afford to set up a retirement plan for their employees, Portman-Cardin made it simpler, easier and less costly to do so. For those who already had plans, the legislation simplified many of the onerous rules and regulations that discouraged business from keeping plans. Over the past 10 years, we’ve seen many more Americans participate in IRAs and 401(k) plans and others taking advantage of the new rules to save more in existing plans. However, we still have a long way to go. We are facing the hard truth that many Americans are still not saving enough to meet their retirement needs. In March 2011, the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) published their 21st Retirement Confidence Survey. The EBRI found that 56% of workers report the total value of their savings and investments is less than $25,000, and 29% of workers have less than $1,000 in savings. One important innovation that many employers have taken advantage of is the change in law to establish automatic enrollment of employees in their workplace retirement plans. Under this approach, a portion of an employee’s pay automatically goes into the savings plan, unless that worker opts out. Automatic enrollment has proven quite successful in helping lower-income and younger workers start to save – two groups that historically have not participated in a retirement savings plan. Surveys show that auto-enrollment boosts employee participation by nearly 30 percent compared to plans without that option. We need to continue to promote automatic enrollment by making it easier for more employers to move to this model of retirement plan. We also need to address the serious problem of cumbersome and confusing regulations in the retirement area. I have proposed legislation that would require government agencies to seek input from the public and fully consider economic burdens before proceeding with any new regulation. And just last month, I urged the current Administration to withdraw a costly new regulation proposed by the Department of Labor — the so-called “fiduciary” rule — that could effectively limit access to investment guidance for middle-income savers and make it harder for small businesses to set up retirement plans. As we move forward, existing policies must be reexamined to eliminate rules that discourage small businesses from setting up retirement plans. With the uncertainty of the stock market, historically low interest rates, and high unemployment rates, American families are worried about their financial security— only 13 percent of workers are confident in their capacity to live comfortably throughout their retirement years, according to the EBRI study. Our work on retirement security has been helped to alleviate those concerns in the past, but there is clearly more that can and should be done in a bipartisan way to incentivize the savings and investment education needed to ensure a secure retirement and peace of mind in our golden years.

Letters to the Editor
New schools vs. keeping old ones To the Editor: Is it possible to make the old buildings energy efficient? The answer is, “Yes, but what would be the cost? “ Is it possible to upgrade the electrical system in our four best old buildings? The answer is, “Yes but what would be the cost?” Is it possible to renovate the crumbling buildings? What would be the cost? I look at it like this — several years ago I had an older model car that was starting to burn oil. I took it to a mechanic and he tells me that I need to overhaul my engine. I think for a few day and ponder the possibilities; I can replace the engine and then have to replace the brakes, then the brake lines, then the transmission, then the starter, then the alternator, then the battery, etc… or I can buy a new vehicle with improve gas mileage, no burning oil, and few little added bells and whistles that come standard since my last purchase (power windows). The state of Ohio will gift us 47 percent of the cost of the new buildings, but only if we pass the school levy in November. If we let this pass us by, we will not get this opportunity again. The reality is that we can pay for
53 percent of the cost of the new buildings now or pay 100 percent later. The old crumbling buildings will not be able to be nursed year after year forever. The cost of maintaining these buildings rises every year and will continue to rise. We know new building have lower maintenance cost. It just doesn’t make sense anymore to continue to make repairs on crumbling rock, out dated electrical systems, plumbing and water damage. It especially doesn’t make sense when we are paying more to maintain these buildings than it would cost to build new buildings. If the citizens of Piqua do not vote to replace these existing buildings now, we will spend more money trying to keep the current buildings up to code. The cost to renovate our best four older buildings is $34.7 million, which is greater than the $29 million that is being ask for building three brand new first rate, energy efficient green buildings with the state providing the remaining $25.8 million. Vote yes. —Clayton Brown Piqua
Take advantage of ‘gift’ from state To the Editor: On Nov. 8, the Piqua School district is asking for your support to pass a very important levy. We need to take advantage of the state funding from the Ohio School Facilities Commission (OSFC) to be used for the much needed construction of three new schools. It is time to replace our aging facilities while the state can still grant us $25.8 million. With today’s economy this value will not be offered for much longer. This is 47 percent of the total construction. We as taxpayers owe it to our children and community to step up and pay the remaining 53 percent, 29 million, to ensure the districts plan. If on Black Friday, following Thanksgiving our mall offered a 47 percent sale on all merchandise, I could only imagine the line of people around the mall. We need to think of this offer as the best sale price we can get for a gift that will keep on giving for generations. To accomplish this gift it will require your support of the bond issue. Cur-
rently, nine districts in Miami and Shelby counties have new schools. Piqua can become No. 10. Let’s all come together for our schools and our own housing market. Our schools and community can be strengthened through the states discounted price.

To the Editor: As someone born in Piqua, I was able to attend High Street Elementary School, Wilder and Piqua High School. I realize now how fortunate I was that so many others before me supported the building of these schools so that I would have the advantages I did. My parents told us often of how proud they were to live in a community that supported the schools. They clearly saw education as the key to the growth and prosperity of our city. I am proud to share their view and to have chosen Piqua as the city in which to raise my own family. Now that my two daughters have also graduated from PHS and gone on to college, I find I can “pay back” all of those who supported me by voting for the building of three new school buildings with the help of a 47 percent state partnership. Our school system is consolidating from the 10 buildings we have in an effort to save money on continuing maintenance expenses. It makes more sense to me to support this construction project rather than renovate old schools since building new ones will be less expensive in the long run. It is my hope that the darling young children I see now when I volunteer at Springcreek will realize some day how much we care about their future when we vote “yes” to support this opportunity the state has presented for our community. —Barbara (Fite) Davis Piqua

DEAR ABBY: In response to your poll (Aug. 24), “If you had it to do over again, would you have children?” my answer is, “I SURE WOULD!” Being a parent made me a better, more tolerant, more patient person and more willing to take risks. It wasn’t always easy. My son’s father left me when I was four months pregnant. With the help of my dear mother, I returned to work, completed my college degree and became a schoolteacher. I have so many wonderful memories. My son is grown now and works with special needs children, and I am proud of the man he has become. — MOM IN SAN DIEGO DEAR MOM: Your feelings reflect the opinions of 78 percent of my readers, who voted yes to that question. The mail I received was profoundly touching. My newspaper readers comment: DEAR ABBY: I’m sitting in my oncologist’s office, waiting to be seen. Tomorrow is one year since I finished chemotherapy. Would I have children again? Absolutely. My husband and three amazing sons have brought so much love, joy and happiness to my life. It would have been hard living through two bouts of cancer 10 years apart, a mastectomy, chemo, radiation, surgery and hopelessness without these wonderful men in my life. They encouraged and supported me all along the way. Childbirth was painful, but if I was told I had to go through it again every month to have my children, I’d do it. Knowing I helped to create them makes me feel incredibly blessed. — JEANNE IN BONITA SPRINGS, FLA.

However, I never realized what was coming — that as teenagers they’d be needy, selfish, costly and ungrateful. Nothing is ever good enough. I get the brunt of the bad moods, the hateful words and the cold shoulders. Had I known how hard this was going to be and the sacrifices I’d have to make, I would have said no. If I had any idea that I’d love them so much that their pain is my pain, I would have said no. — ANONYMOUS IN TEXAS DEAR ABBY: My answer is an emphatic NO! I love my son and care for my stepchildren, but for the few joys that I have received it wasn’t worth the heartaches. I have spoken to many parents about this. They all seem to feel the same. These adult children have a sense of entitlement and no respect. Frankly, I should have raised dogs!!! — NO NAME IN GEORGIA DEAR ABBY: Would I have children again? Absolutely, every one of them from my first, who is a special needs child who may never be able to live independently, to the youngest, who was only 4 when his dad left.

CUPERTINO, Calif. — Steve Jobs, the Apple founder and former CEO who invented and masterfully marketed eversleeker gadgets that transformed everyday technology, from the personal computer to the iPod and iPhone, has died. He was 56. Apple announced his death without giving a specific cause. “We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today,” the company said in a brief statement. “Steve’s brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve” Jobs had battled cancer in 2004 and underwent a liver transplant in 2009 after taking a leave of absence for unspecified health problems. He took another leave of absence in January his third since his health problems began before resigning as CEO six weeks ago. Jobs became Apple’s chairman and handed the CEO job over to his hand-picked successor, Tim Cook. The news Apple fans and shareholders had been dreading came the day after Apple unveiled its latest version of the iPhone, just one in a procession of devices that shaped technology and society while Jobs was running the company. Jobs started Apple with a high school friend in a Silicon Valley garage in 1976, was forced out a decade later and returned in 1997 to rescue the company. During his second stint, it grew into the most valuable technology company in the world with a market value of $351 billion. Only Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM) , which makes it money extracting and refining oil instead of ideas, is worth more. Cultivating Apple’s countercultural sensibility and a minimalist design ethic, Jobs rolled out one sensational product after another, even in the face of the late-2000s recession and his own failing health. He helped change computers from a geeky hobbyist’s obsession to a necessity of modern life at work and home, and in the process he upended not just personal technology

For transformation of American industry, he ranks among his computer-age contemporary, Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:MSFT) co-founder Bill Gates and other creative geniuses such as Walt Disney (NYSE:DCQ) that left an indelible imprint on the world. Jobs died as Walt Disney Co.’s (NYSE:DIS) largest shareholder, a byproduct of his decision to sell computer animation studio Pixar in 2006. Perhaps most influentially, Jobs in 2001 launched the iPod, which offered “1,000 songs in your pocket.” Over the next 10 years, its white earphones and thumb-dial control seemed to become more ubiquitous than the wristwatch. In 2007 came the touchscreen iPhone, joined a year later by Apple’s App Store, where developers could sell iPhone “apps” which made the phone a device not just for making calls but also for managing money, editing photos, playing games and social networking. And in 2010, Jobs introduced the iPad, a tablet-sized, all-touch computer that took off even though market analysts said no one really needed one. Steven Paul Jobs was born Feb. 24, 1955, to Joanne Simpson, then an unmarried graduate student, and Abdulfattah Jandali, a student from Syria. Simpson gave Jobs up for adoption, though she married Jandali and a
few years later had a second child with him, Mona Simpson, who became a novelist. Steven was adopted by Clara and Paul Jobs of Los Altos, Calif., a workingclass couple who nurtured his early interest in electronics. He saw his first computer terminal at NASA’s Ames Research Center when he was around 11 and landed a summer job at HewlettPackard (NYSE:HPQ) before he had finished high school. Jobs enrolled in Reed College in Portland, Ore., in 1972 but dropped out after a semester. “All of my workingclass parents’ savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn’t see the value in it,” he said at a Stanford University commencement address in 2005. “I had no idea what
I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out.” When he returned to California in 1974, Jobs worked for video game Atari (NASmaker DAQ:ATAR) and attended meetings of the Homebrew Computer Club with Steve Wozniak, a high school friend who was a few years older. Wozniak’s homemade computer drew attention from other enthusiasts, but Jobs saw its potential far beyond the geeky hobbyists of the time. The pair started Apple in Jobs’ parents’ garage in 1976. Their first creation was the Apple I essentially, the guts of a computer without a case, keyboard or monitor. The Apple II, which hit the market in 1977, was their first machine for the masses. It became so popular that Jobs was worth $100 million by age 25. Time magazine put him on its cover for the first time in 1982. During a 1979 visit to the Xerox (NYSE:XRX) Palo Alto Research Center, Jobs again spotted mass potential in a niche invention: a computer that allowed people to access files and control programs with the click of a mouse, not typed commands. He returned to Apple and ordered the team to copy what he had seen. It foreshadowed a propensity to take other people’s concepts, improve on them and spin them into wildly successful products. Under Jobs, Apple didn’t invent computers, digital music players or smartphones it reinvented them for people who didn’t want to learn computer programming or negotiate the technical hassles of keeping their gadgets working.

‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ is Broadway-bound MARK KENNEDY AP Drama Writer NEW YORK — What’s the buzz? A hit production of “Jesus Christ Superstar” in Canada is coming south to Broadway. Producers announced Tuesday that the rock musical about the last days of Jesus written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice will hit New York in the spring, a move that was widely expected. Previews will begin on March 1 at the Neil Simon Theatre and an official opening is set for March 22. Des McAnuff, the artistic director of the Stratford Shakespeare Festival in Ontario, where the revival originated this summer, will again direct. “I’m extremely happy, and very, very happy for the company of actors because I think they anticipated that this might happen and I certainly haven’t discouraged them from believing that,” McAnuff said by phone from Italy. The guitar- and keyboard-driven musical, which debuted on Broadway in 1971, includes such songs as “What’s the Buzz?” ”Superstar” and “I Don’t Know How to Love Him.” The original production earned five Tony Award nominations, including one for Ben Vereen, who played Judas. A film version was released in 1973. The musical dramatizes Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, the unrest caused by his preaching and popularity, his betrayal by Judas, the trial before Pontius Pilate and his ultimate crucifixion. It marked an early collaboration between Lloyd Webber and Rice, who would go on to create “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” and “Evita,” which is coming to Broadway in the spring of 2012. “Superstar” was first introduced as an album before being staged on Broadway and McAnuff says his production is very faithful to the original recording. “We’ve treated it more like an opera than a musical,” he said. The new production also teases out the story’s love triangle. The latest stage production opened at the Canadian festival in June and ends its run there on Nov. 6 before moving to the La Jolla Playhouse in La Jolla, Calif., for final tweaking from Nov. 18 to Dec. 31 before its Broadway run. A number of other productions put on at the Stratford Festival have found their way to Broadway, including 2002’s

Though no casting was announced for Broadway, McAnuff anticipates keeping together most of the cast he originally molded, including Chilina Kennedy as Mary Magdalene, Paul Nolan as Jesus, Josh Young as Judas Iscariot, Bruce Dow as King Herod, and Brent Carver as Pontius Pilate. Producers hope “Jesus Christ Superstar” will find a receptive Broadway audience that has already seen revivals of such 1970s-era shows as “Hair” and “Godspell,” which starts performances later this month. It also taps into the religious-themed musicals that have settled on Broadway — “Sister Act” and “The Book of Mormon.” “I think there is that great expression, ‘There’s something in the air.’ I suppose that’s what it is,” said McAnuff, who was a teenager when he first saw “Hair” in Toronto. “That kind of anarchic process that went into creating albums and shows in those days is perhaps taking on a kind of new respect.”

AMY TEIBEL Associated Press JERUSALEM — Arsonists torched a mosque in an Arab village in northern Israel Monday, setting off protests by residents who clashed with police. Graffiti sprayed at the site suggested Jewish radicals, suspected in other recent mosque fires, were involved. Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said carpet was burned inside the mosque in Tuba-Zangria and interior walls were damaged. Copies of the Quran, the Muslim holy book, were also burned, Israeli media reported. Israel’s prime minister, president and other politicians condemned the attack, as did Jewish religious leaders. The words “price tag” were spray painted on the mosque, Rosenfeld added — a reference to a Jewish settler practice of attacking Palestinians or the Israeli military in retaliation for government operations or attacks against Jewish settlements. Army Radio reported that the family name of a settler and his infant son killed last week in a car crash near the West Bank town of Hebron was scrawled on a wall of the
mosque. Israeli police have said Palestinian rock-throwers struck the man in the head, causing him to lose control of the car. An official at the mosque, Ali Zangria, told Army Radio that a villager detected smoke rising from the mosque around 2 a.m. and contacted police. “But everything had already gone up in smoke by then,” he said, ruing that his village had been singled out for attack. “The village is a quiet one and we always had good relations with Jewish residents.” Later in the day, Israel’s chief rabbis, President Shimon Peres and Christian and Druse religious leaders visited the village to condemn the attack and express solidarity with residents. In northern Israel, about 200 villagers from Tuba-Zangria marched toward a major intersection to protest the arson, intending to block the road, Rosenfeld said. Some demonstrators set tires on fire and stoned police officers, who dispersed the crowd with tear gas, he said. No one was injured and no arrests were reported. There was no sign of unrest inside the village. Security was height-

ened across northern Israel to prevent further disturbances and police met with village leaders in an effort to defuse tensions, Rosenfeld said. Israeli Arabs account for one-fifth of Israel’s population of 7.6 million, and many live in northern Israel. The mosque was the third burned since the government destroyed structures in an unauthorized Jewish settlement outpost in the West Bank last month. An Israeli military base was also vanafter the dalized demolitions and threatening graffiti was sprayed at the apartment of a prominent Israeli settlement opponent. Jewish extremists are suspected in all of these incidents. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denounced the mosque arson, and ordered the Shin Bet internal security agency to act quickly to locate the assailants. A text message from his office said he “was fuming when he saw the pictures” and said the attack “ran counter to the values of the state of Israel.” Most “price tag” actions are carried out in the West Bank, and attacks on mosques inside Israel are rarer.
Faith enables you to walk in God’s unmerited favor You are favored by God. Romans 4:16 Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all… God’s grace is His undeserved, unearned and unmerited favor. And because it is undeserved, unearned and unmerited, all of us qualify for it. But how do we walk in it? Just as a password gives you access to a computer program, faith enables you to walk in God’s unmerited favor. Now, faith has nothing to do with what you do or what you can do. Faith is simply believing and declaring what God has done and is doing for you. In fact, the salvation of your soul comes from the understanding of how much God
are “Yes” and “Amen” in Christ. (2 Corinthians 1:20) Michael D. Myers is the Pastor of Freedom Life Church in Piqua. MICHAEL D. MYERS Columnist loves you. Enough to save. Now as someone who takes God at His word you can believe that the favor of God is on you because of Christ’s finished work, His promises of provision, healing and restoration become sure to you. They are not just sure to the Jews, but also to you and me because we are “of the faith of Abraham.” My friend, when you believe that you have the same favor that Jesus has, a whole new world will open up to you — a world where all of God’s promises

PIQUA HIGH SCHOOL
New special education teacher joins PHS
BY ERIC CRAFT Staff Writer
BY SARAH MCCREA Staff Writer
On Sept. 29, various colleges and people of different career backgrounds came to Piqua High School to talk to students about various paths one could take after graduation. During the first four periods of the morning students went from room to room listening to many representatives from all different backgrounds and schools. While he does want to go into culinary arts, student C.J. Tipps, a sophomore who visited with several career representatives, said, “I personally liked the visual arts career.” He also said he “enjoyed seeing people that are interested in the same career choices as me.” Macy Lambert, a junior at PHS, said the college she liked the most was Bowling Green State University. Lambert has decided to be a marine biologist. “It was very good,and it exposed kids to lots of different colleges and careers that they might not even know about,” said Lois Hartings, teacher. Hartings also said that the business management representatives brought up some very good points: “College degree or not, as long as you have good attendance, work hard, and always have a great attitude, you can move up in any business.” One thing is for certain, students seemed to get a lot from career day.
Another member added to the PHS staff this year is Heather Monroe, special education teacher. Transferred from Wilder Intermediate School in Piqua, where she taught language arts and math special education classes, Monroe now only teaches math, plus three inclusion and three resource classes. For kindergarten through twelfth grade, Monroe attended Troy City Schools. For college, she went to Wright State University, where she received her bachelor’s degree in special education and her master’s in education and leadership. However, when starting college, she was originally a journalism major. In high school, and in college, she wrote for the Troy Daily News, but found that it wasn’t as satisfying as she’d hoped. She got the idea to major in special education from her boyfriend at the time, who was majoring in the subject. Monroe found it to
be more rewarding than journalism and switched majors. Before becoming a teacher, she had a variety of jobs. For her first job, Monroe worked as a papergirl. Eventually she started working at McDonald’s and then at Meijer throughout her college years. Her first teaching job was at Graham High School where she taught special education math, science, and social Monroe studies classes. According to Monroe, the change of schools has been a convenient one. She especially likes the air conditioning, which Wilder does not have. However, she is no longer involved in certain programs at the high school; for example, she was in the safety patrol at

Homecoming 2011 ----- Start your engines! ----- NASCAR chosen as theme
Raceway royalty
Talladega night BY JULIA HARRELSON
BY COLLEEN KINNINGER
From NASCAR, to Disney, back to NASCAR, the theme of Homecoming has gone full circle. But NASCAR it is and now it is up to the creative minds to apply the theme for various Homecoming activities. The football game will be played Friday, Oct. 7, with the dance being the next day. As is tradition, each class will be making a banner for the parade around the track before the game. It will be very interesting to see how each class decorates their banner. This is one of the most original themes Lehman has had for their Homecoming, so it offers much creativity not only for banners, but the decoration of the gym for the dance. The senior class sponsors the dance, which will be held in the DeLong gym on Saturday night. The seniors organize food, drinks, decorations, and music. No one should be surprised if they see signs in the gym that say, “Do It for Dale!” This phrase has become a very common one at Lehman, especially at the volleyball games. Almost everyone knows the famous NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt.
Besides all of the dancing, laughter, and bright lights, Homecoming also brings with it the crowning of a king and queen. Every year, 14 members of the senior class are chosen for the court by the seniors. Then, the entire student body and teachers vote for the king and queen. Queen candidates are Meghan Bennett, Abby Ciriegio, Meghan Earhart, Kerrie Josefovsky, Colleen Kinninger, Amy Watercutter, and Maria Yannucci. King candidates are Alex Baker, Michael Comer, David Freytag, Solomon KingWhite, Logan Monnin, Ben Thieman, and Matt Ulrich. These 14 seniors are heavily involved in activities in and out of school. Bennett has been involved in Academia, basketball, the Cavalier Crier and Cavalcade staff, Envirothon, honor roll, Interact, Mock Trial, NHS, Ohio Energy Project, Pro-Lifeguards, prom court, SAAC, softball, Student Ambassador, tennis, and 4-H. Ciriegio has participated in choir, Cavalier Crier and Cavalcade staff, honor roll, Interact, NHS, Pro-Lifeguards, Relay for Life, lector, Eucharistic Minister, soccer, Stock Club, and Student Ambassador. Earhart has been involved in Envirothon, honor roll, NHS, Pro-Lifeguards, prom court, Eucharistic Minister, Student Ambassador and volleyball. Josefovsky has been in Academia, choir, honor roll, musical, NHS, Pro-Lifeguards, Relay for Life, SAAC, Social Studies Shootout, softball, and tennis. Kinninger has been active in Academia, band, Cavalier Crier and Cavalcade staff, honor roll, Interact, Mock Trial, musical, NHS, Ohio Energy Project, Pro-Lifeguards, prom court, Relay for Life, Eucharistic Minister, SAAC, soccer, TEAMS-JETS, and 4-H. Watercutter has been involved in Cavalier Crier and Cavalcade staff, senior class president, honor roll, Interact, NHS, prom court, Relay for Life, lector, sacristan, Student Ambassador, swimming, and volleyball. Yannucci has been in basketball, Cavalier Crier and Cavalcade staff, choir, honor roll, NHS, Pro-Lifeguards, prom court, Relay for Life, Eucharistic Minister, Social Studies Shootout, Student Ambassador, and volleyball. Baker has been involved in basketball, honor roll, prom court, Stock Club, and tennis. Comer has been active in Academia, basketball, honor roll, NHS, Pro-Lifeguards, soccer, Student Ambassador, TEAMS-JETS, tennis, and CYO basketball. Freytag has participated in Academia, basketball, class officer, cross country, honor roll, Interact, NHS, prom court, Eucharistic Minister, Mass server, Science Olympiad, soccer, Student Ambassador, Student Council, TEAMS-JETS, tennis, Pro-Lifeguards, and Relay for Life. King-White has been in band, basketball, honor roll, NHS, Relay for Life, soccer, and jazz ensemble. Monnin has been involved in band, honor roll, musical, Ohio Energy Project, Pro-Lifeguards, Prom Court, Relay for Life, Jazz Combo, Stock Club, and 4-H. Thieman has been active in basketball, golf, honor roll, Prom Court, Relay for Life, Stock Club, Student Ambassador, and Mass lector. Ulrich has been involved in Academia, class officer, honor roll, NHS, Pro-Lifeguards, Prom Court, sacristan, soccer, Student Ambassador, TEAMS-JETS, tennis, and CYO basketball. The crowning takes place Friday before the football game begins, and the elected couple will preside over the dance the following night. Best of luck to all of the court candidates.
The guy in the driver’s seat BY MEGHAN BENNETT Having a Homecoming grand marshal has always been a tradition at Lehman High School. Every year, the senior class votes for a teacher or staff member to lead their Homecoming festivities. This year, the honor has been bestowed on Joe Harrmann. Harrmann is in his second year of teaching at Lehman. He is a graduate of Archbishop McNicholas High School in Cincinnati. Upon graduating from high school, Harrmann attended the University of Dayton. At Lehman, Harrmann teaches introduction to business, business II, accounting I and II, and computer applications I and II. He also helps coach the baseball team, is the freshman class adviser, and manages the Stock Club. Outside of school, Harrman enjoys playing golf, exercising, officiating, and spending time with his family, especially his wife, Kylee, who will accompany him to the Homecoming game and dance. As grand marshal, Harrmann is in the driver’s seat for this year’s “Nascar” themed Homecoming. He is responsible for announcing the court, leading the football parade, and supporting the people involved with Homecoming. “I am extremely excited about being grand marshal,” Harrmann said. “I feel very honored and proud to be elected. I’m hoping to represent Lehman very well and make the event fun and exciting.”

HOROSCOPE Thursday, Oct. 6, 2011 Do all that you can to get out and move around as much as possible in the year ahead. The more exposure you get, the more people you’ll meet who can become good friends. It behooves you to establish as many contacts as you can. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Today’s events could turn out to be rather beneficial for you, especially if you have plans with someone who has proved lucky for you in the past. Life has a way of repeating itself. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Because certain breaks could be coming your way, devote your time and energies toward fulfilling a tough ambition of yours. It’ll help if you keep what you’re doing to yourself. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Utilize any and all special knowledge or expertise you’ve acquired that could benefit you as well as two special friends who are involved with you in a project. Something positive will come of it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Since you are now in an extremely favorable achievement cycle, don’t waste your time and efforts on small potatoes. Aim for the big spuds in all that you do. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — The excellent impression you’ll make on everyone you come in contact with will be both favorable and lasting. Where you’ll really shine is in one-onone relationships. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Lady Luck will do her best to help you develop some new channels to achieve your needs as well as your wants. Don’t coast, however, because she may not stick around very long. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — The quickest way to be successful is to put your interests second. When you do what you believe to be best for everyone else, you feather your own nest as well. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — If you work from a structured agenda and do the toughest jobs first, you’ll be amazed at how well things will turn out for you and how pleased you’ll be with your accomplishments. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Adopting an optimistic attitude and demeanor could be extremely effective in enhancing your popularity with the opposite gender. Put it to the test and see for yourself. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — An extremely tough matter can be put to rest if you make it your priority to do so. Whenever you’re dealing with something of this ilk, know that it cannot be done in bits and pieces. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Although you may be comfortable with certain ideas, there is a good chance they’ll appear to be a bit too grandiose for others. The reason: you’ll be using different methods of measurement. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Because your material prospects look exceptionally good, don’t put off until tomorrow what you can easily take care of now. When things are this good, live in the now, man.

2011 season continued at Dover. His 24th-place run was his 13th showing of 14th or worse in the last 15 races, dating back to mid-June at Michigan. Earnhardt recorded 11 top-12 finishes in the season’s first 14 races, averaging a 10th-place run and sat third in the point standings. Since, he’s averaged an 18.3-place finish while sinking to 10th in the standings and all but falling out of the running for a championship.

Kurt Busch and Jimmie Johnson entered Sunday’s AAA 400 at Dover International Speedway ranked ninth and 10th in NASCAR’s Chase for the Sprint Cup — in 28- and 29point holes. Many were already throwing dirt on Johnson’s bid for a sixth straight championship, while Busch was merely an afterthought in the title hunt. That all changed in the Chase’s third race. Busch got the jump on Johnson twice during late-race restarts — the first with 42 laps remaining and again with 35 to go — and never relinquished it, winning his second race of 2011 and the first of his career on Dover’s high banks. “My guys on pit road did a phenomenal job to be consistent, to be smooth, and to put us out there where we needed to be,” Busch said. “And I was able to wrestle the lead away from the 48 car (Johnson) and got to his high side and took the lead. And then with the final pit stop, Steve (Addington, crew chief) was thinking four (tires), I was thinking four, but we switched to two tires, and that was the perfect call. “We beat Johnson out of the pits, had the inside lane on the final restart and we just took it to him. I knew we needed to get that jump on the restart and we never looked back.” Johnson held on for second, while Carl Edwards overcame a mid-race pit-road violation and charged through the field to finish third. Kasey Kahne and Matt Kenseth rounded out the top 5. Tony Stewart, who won the first

MATT KENSETH Very quietly, Kenseth has placed himself solidly in contention for a title. Finishes of fifth and sixth in the last two races find his No. 17 team just 14 points out of the Chase lead. RYAN NEWMAN Newman’s ultra-consistent regular-season run has hit the skids in the Chase. After an eighth-place finish to begin the playoffs, Newman has slumped to 25th- and 23rdplace runs, placing him 41 points out of the lead. Compiled and written by Matt Taliaferro.

SPRINT CUP SERIES Race: Hollywood Casino 400 Track: Kansas Speedway Location: Kansas City, Kan. When: Sunday, Oct. 9 TV: ESPN (2:00 p.m. EST) Layout: 1.5-mile tri-oval Banking/Turns: 15 degrees Banking/Tri-Oval: 10.4 degrees Banking/Backstretch: 5 degrees June Winner: Brad Keselowski Crew Chief’s Take: “As with many of the circuit’s 1.5- and 2-mile ovals, bump stops on the shocks play an important role at Kansas. A team must find an optimal setting for the bump stops or the car will be negatively affected by being too low — which drags the splitter and affects handling — or too high — which gets air under the car and results in a lack of frontend downforce. Kansas is a simple track, which means there are probably more teams that can win there than at most places.”

two races of the Chase and came into the Dover weekend as the points leader, struggled throughout the day and finished 25th. That, along with the top-3 runs by Busch, Johnson and Edwards, tightened the standings up. Kevin Harvick and Edwards now sit tied for first, although Harvick’s four wins trump Edwards’ one in the tiebreaker. Stewart and Busch are now tied for third, nine points out, while Johnson jumped five spots to fifth, only 13 points in arrears. “Are we out of it, still?” Johnson joked with the media afterwards. “Last week I was considered done.” Johnson’s 157 laps led were the most of any driver on the day, although Edwards seemed to have the best car early, leading 116 of the first 176 circuits. His pit-road speeding penalty dropped him two laps off the pace, though, and he spent the remainder of the day making up ground. “It’s really easy to say (that) if we would not have made that mistake

NASCAR Preseason Thunder, the annual three-day NASCAR Sprint Cup Series test session at Daytona International Speedway in advance of the season-opening 54th annual Daytona 500, will be held on Jan. 12-14. All NASCAR Preseason Thunder test sessions begin at 9:00 am and end at 5:00 pm. I NASCAR has announced the 2012 schedule for the Sprint Cup Series. Very few changes were expected, and the expectation held true. The Daytona 500 has been moved back one week, to Feb. 26, and the series’ first off-weekend, traditionally three weeks after Daytona, has been eliminated. Other changes include Talladega Superspeedway and Kansas Speedway swapping Chase dates. Talladega currently occupies the sixth race of the Chase in October, but will host the Chase’s fourth race moving forward. Talladega’s spring date has also been moved to May 6. This allows Dover to re-assume its traditional early-June date.
we would have won,” Edwards said of the penalty. “I definitely took myself out of position to fight for the win by doing that. So that’s something that is painful, and I’m going to think about it — I’m going to think about it all the way home.” The top nine drivers in the standings are all still alive for the title with seven races remaining. Jeff Gordon, in ninth, is only 19 points out of the lead, while Kyle Busch (eighth) in 15 back and Kenseth and Brad Keselowski are tied for sixth, just 14 out. Keselowski’s magical nine-race run — he had recorded nine straight top-12 finishes, including two wins — came to an end when his Penske Dodge threw a power steering belt. Until then, he had been a consistent top-10 car and had led two laps. Like Edwards, the malfunction dropped him two laps down and, while he was able to make it back onto the lead lap, he ran out of time and settled for a 20th-place finish.
Daytona’s summer event — the Coke Zero 400 — and Kentucky Speedway’s race will swap weekends, as well, as the July 4th holiday falls mid-week next year. Kentucky’s race will be June 30; Daytona will run on July 7. I The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and NASCAR jointly announced an extended agreement for Goodyear to continue as the exclusive tire used in NASCAR’s top three racing series for the next five years. The agreement, which extends through the 2017 season, renews Goodyear as the “Exclusive Tire Supplier” of NASCAR. Goodyear has held that role for NASCAR’s three touring series since 1997. I The Sprint Cup Series Awards Ceremony will take place in Las Vegas for the third stright year on Friday, Dec. 2 at the Wynn Las Vegas. The ceremony caps off “Champions Week” in Las Vegas, with events and autograph sessions scheduled throughout the week.

Classic Moments Kansas Speedway Kansas Speedway has been the site of many oddball finishes, and with its traditional date in the Chase, it’s often had championship ramifications. The 2006 Banquet 400 is no different. Jimmie Johnson has led 105 laps on the day and leads late when fuel mileage comes into play. Johnson surrenders the lead with four laps remaining to Tony Stewart, who runs out of gas on the backstretch of the final lap. However, with pit stops ongoing, Stewart has a nearly 20-second lead over Casey Mears and coasts the final half-lap to win with an empty fuel cell. Johnson’s title hopes appear to take a fatal hit when he is caught speeding on pit road while coming in for a splash of gas and two tires. His 14thplace finish finds him 165 points out of the Chase lead. He rebounds, though, averaging a third-place finish over the final six races to win his first Cup.
Athlon Fantasy Stall Looking at Checkers: Kurt Busch sat on the pole and led 152 laps before fuel mileage bit him to the tune of a ninth-place finish. Pretty Solid Pick: If Greg Biffle has a win in him this season, this is where he’ll get it. Good Sleeper Pick: Dale Earnhardt Jr., anyone? Runs on Seven Cylinders: Not that he’d be on your squad anyway, but Joey Logano averages a 26.8-place finish here. Insider Tip: Brad Keselowski won the June race here on fuel mileage. It’ll likely come down to that again.

Attention race fans: Do not count Jimmie Johnson out of the Chase until he is mathematically eliminated (which probably will not happen). Thank you. That is all. The preseason favorite to unseat Johnson had a quiet regular season but has pieced together six straight top 10s — including runs of fourth, eighth and third in the Chase — to tie for the points lead. Stewart seemed resigned to the fact that Dover would be unkind ... and it was. Expect the team to regroup at Kansas, where Stewart has two wins and was eighth earlier this season. Gordon came into the Chase hot, but has cooled with finishes of 12th and 24th sandwiching a fourthplace run. You have to figure his No. 24 team will get it together, but the performance bears watching. The eight-week breakout run Keselowski enjoyed — which may be the story of the year in the sport — comes to an end. However, this team’s strength remains that it doesn’t know it shouldn’t be here. Clinging to the points lead thanks to his four regular season wins and top-12 finishes. Still, Harvick seems to be lacking some of the mojo that got him here. Maybe he should pick a fight with Kyle Busch. Running out of fuel in the Chase’s first race at Chicago may come back to haunt Kenseth, who had one of the best cars there. The result was a 21st, with fifth- and sixth-place runs since. Busch throws his hat back into the championship hunt with an impressive — and somewhat unexpected — win in Dover over Johnson, who he described as his “arch-nemesis.” A sixth at Dover helped his cause after subpar 22nd- and 11th-place showings. Leading laps is Kyle’s calling card, but he hasn’t done that since the onset of the Chase. There’s quite a gap between ninth and 10th on the list. Newman is sliding down the rankings thanks to 25th- and 23rd-place runs which have deep-sixed his Chase chances. That third-place run to open the Chase is proving to be the fuel-mileage fluke we believed it to be. If he expects to run better at Michael Waltrip Racing next season he needs to think again. Back to his seventh- to 12th-place ways after a couple of down weeks. Averaged an eighth-place finish in the three races prior to the Chase. Averaging a 26th-place finish in it. If a non-Chaser is to win a Chase race, Biffle may be that guy at Kansas. Marcos Ambrose, Kasey Kahne, Mark Martin, David Ragan, Martin Truex Jr.

The Piqua boys soccer team nearly pulled off a fantastic finish Tuesday night at Wertz Stadium before losing 3-2 to Sidney on Senior Night. Sidney had opened a 3-0 lead with seven minutes remaining in the game. “Sidney came out strong and we didn’t look focused,” Piqua coach Nick Guidera said. “We gave up an early goal off of a corner. We eventually went down 3-0, and then the tides turned.” The Piqua scoring started with a penalty kick by Conner Benson. Evan Grissom cut the deficit to 3-2. “Evan Grissom had a free kick outside of the box that he banged home into the lower right corner,” Guidera said. “We had all the momentum and finally there was a foul called just outside of the box and we had one last shot with 11 seconds to go on the clock.” Grissom played the ball to Cody Lumpkin who just missed as time expired. “Cody Lumpkin played in a great shot, but it deflected out of bounds,” Guidera said. “I was almost See PREPS/Page 17

■ Willowbrook Invitational
Cutting down on travel time Piqua hosts second annual Willowbrook Invitational Saturday BY ROB KISER Sports Editor rkiser@dailycall.com This Saturday presents a rare opportunity for Piqua cross country fans. To watch the Indians run without traveling. Piqua will host the second annual Willowbrook Invitational, which will start and finish near Alexander Stadium/Purk Field. “This is our Piqua-Troy game,” girls cross country coach Steve Frazier said. “This is our kids chance to have everybody come out and watch them run.” This season, the Indians have logged plenty of travel miles to go with the running they do. “We have run at Ottawa Glandorf, Tiffin, Columbus Grove,” Frazier said. “We have done quite a bit of traveling.” And the Indians look forward to hosting an invitational which Frazier hopes will continue to grow. “We have added two teams that weren’t here last year,” he said. “We are hoping to get the GWOC in a couple years. If that happens, every GWOC team is going to want to run here the next week before the GWOC meet.” And Frazier expects his team to continue to do well. “I think we can finish second,” he said. “We have to take a little time off, but if we do that, we can finish second. “We still have a pretty young team with a lot of freshman and sophomores and one senior.” And Piqua senior Kaele Snapp, who played soccer last year, is one of the favorites to win the girls race. “This is her first one,” Frazier said. “There is one other girl she has to beat. I think Kaele is pretty excited about it. I know she

Continued from page 15 turnovers killed us last year,” Nees said. “Our offensive coaches have done a great job of turning that stat around this year — as well as our offensive players.” A great example of that was last week, when Piqua didn’t turn the ball over against Trotwood-Madison and forced two turnovers — only to see a late lead slip away in a controversial final minute. Nees knows there will be no hangover from that game this week. “You can’t talk out of the side of your mouth,” Nees said. “When we have a big win, that is over with when they come in on Monday and it is the same with a loss.” Piqua will be a facing a 5-1 Troy team, who only loss came to D-I powerhouse Middletown. The Trojans handed Vandalia-Butler its first loss last week in convincing fashion. On offense, the Trojans continue to spread the carries evenly in the backfield, led by Marcus Foster. “I don’t know that they have that one guy that gets more carries like we do with Jon Dembski,” Nees said. “They spread it out between the three backs.” The biggest difference from past Troy teams is the passing attack, led by quarterback Cody May and receiver Ian Dunaway. “In the past, if Troy had a second and long or third and long, you might see a lot of counter plays,” Nees said. “Now, in that same situation, they will throw the ball. He (Ian Dunaway) is a guy they like to look to, but they spread it around.” Defensively, Troy will line up in a 50 defense and the Trojans return a number of strong players, including Foster, who has signed with Cincinnati, where he will be a defensive back. Linebackers Zachary Butcher and Chris Blair have combined for more than 100 tackles. “They have five guys back who are real solid All-GWOC players,” Nees said. “They have a big nose-tackle, who was an all-league player and then the have two linebackers (Zachary Butcher, Chris Blair) who are real strong. So, the interior
qualifier as a sophomore. “I believe I can get back to regionals, beyond that, we will have to see,” she said. “My goal is always to beat my PR, which is 19:51.” Piqua boys coach Matt Siefker also looks forward to Saturday. “The kids are excited about it,” he said. “It is a scenic course, but it also a challenging course. “There are some hills out there. It is not just running around in a circle on a flat course. It has a little bit of everything, which a cross country course should.” And the goals are a little different for the boys, who have just four runners and can’t compete in team competition. “We just want to keep getting better every week,” he said. “And the kids have done that. Kurt Grove was asking me the other day how the season has gone and I was telling him this season has been a lot of fun.” Senior Sean Calhoun is a great example of that. “He was a sprinter in track,” Siefker said. “He told me he has enjoyed this season more than he ever though he would. “We want to build a program here and the kids that are running will tell you it is a very enjoyable experience for them.” Never more so than Saturday, when they have the home crowd to cheer them on.
is a big part of their defense.” Troy, like Piqua, has been involved in some high-scoring and low-scoring games. “Both teams have played a diverse schedule,” Nees said. “It just depends on the opponent.” Piqua led Trotwood-Madison, the second-ranked Division II team in Ohio for most of the second half last Friday after rallying from a 19-10 halftime deficit. Jon Dembski, who has rushed for 12 touchdowns and quarterback Taylor Wellbaum lead a high-scoring offense. And Nees said the defense has played much better than the stats would indicate. “I feel like they have played pretty well all year,” he said. “It is not like the old days when you get a couple sacks and shut everything down. “With the shotgun and everything, if you look at the GWOC stats, after Wayne, not team has more than nine sacks. Now it is about quarterback pressures and things like that.” This week, more than any other week during the season, Nees’ number one challenge is to keep the focus on the game. “We have been to a few pep rallies,” Nees said. “Those things are important and we want the kids to do that. But, it is important to stay focused on the game.” And the players are ready to end Troy’s four-game winning streak and bring the Battle on the Miami trophy back to Piqua. “These guys have played football together for a long time — just like in any other community,” Nees said. “That (the streak) has been discussed and they are aware of it.” And there is a lot more at stake Friday night than just the rivalry — any hopes of GWOC North title or playoff berth will require a win. “You can down the list,” Nees said. “This is a big game for a number of reasons.” Not the least of which is that it is Troy week, which means you can throw the records out.
Hillis agent takes blame Advised back not to play when sick CLEVELAND (AP) — Fearing Peyton Hillis was weakened from strep throat and could risk injury, his agent advised the Browns' bruising back not to play on Sept. 25 against Miami. Hillis left Browns Stadium about two hours before kickoff, a decision that has led to speculation he was upset over ongoing negotiations with the club on a contract extension. However, agent Kennard McGuire told The Associated Press that Hillis was too sick to play, and that he could have jeopardized his career if he played at less than 100 percent. "I would give him the same advice to him or any of my clients as if he were my son," McGuire said in a phone interview. "The game is physical enough, and the way Peyton plays the game, he needs all the elements of his physical game. Him being sick, and the level of his sickness, is the equivalent of being injured. "Not only could he have hurt himself but he could have hurt his team. Nobody embodies Cleveland like Peyton Hillis. If anyone wants to point a finger, point it at me." In the aftermath of Hillis' decision not to play, suspicions have been raised about the 25-year-old's motives and some have questioned if he sat out in protest. On Sunday, citing unidentified sources, ESPN reported that some players in Cleveland's locker room wondered if Hillis' contract situation was a factor in him deciding not to play. McGuire, like coach Pat Shurmur, was disturbed that if there were teammates who felt that way, they should have had the "courage" to speak out publicly.

At the Division I sectionals at Reid Park North Wednesday, Grove missed by qualifying for district by one shot after shooting 81. And Piqua tied for sixth with a 351, while a Troy team the Indians had beaten several times this year advanced on to the district tournament. “It is kind of the story of the season,” Piqua coach Dave Williams said. “It has been and up-anddown season. There were times where we played very well. It would have been nice to see Darrin get out — he has had a nice career and has worked really hard. “It would have been nice for the team to get out.

LOUIS (AP) — David Freese homered, doubled and drove in four runs as the St. Louis Cardinals tagged playoff nemesis Roy Oswalt and beat the Philadelphia Phillies 5-3 Wednesday night, forcing a deciding fifth game in their NL division series. Center fielder Jon Jay made a sliding catch on Placido Polanco's soft fly for the final out, and was already pointing his index finger before he got to his feet. Now it's back to Philadelphia for Game 5 on Friday night. Roy Halladay, who won the opener for the Phillies, will face St. Louis ace Chris Carpenter. Cardinals manager Tony La Russa has already called it a dream matchup. The 102-win Phillies are favored to win it all. But first they must dispose of the wild-card Cardinals, who clinched a playoff spot on the last day of the season and have gotten the best of two members of the Phils' star-studded rotation. And suddenly, this firstround series has gotten squirrelly for the Phillies. An omen, maybe: Right after Oswalt threw a pitch in the fifth, a squirrel darted across the plate. Albert Pujols was hitless in four at-bats in what could have been his final home game with the Cardinals. He received thunderous cheers every trip to the plate from a standing room crowd of 47,071, second-largest at 6-year-old Busch Stadium. Pujols made his presence known on defense, catching Chase Utley going for an extra base in the sixth. Utley drew a leadoff walk and kept running on Hunter Pence's grounder to short, but Pujols alertly jumped off first base to catch the throw and made a sharp relay to third for the out. Edwin Jackson recovered from a rocky beginning to win his first playoff start. After giving up two runs on his first five pitches, he wound up throwing six solid innings. Jason Motte worked a perfect ninth for his second save of the series. Phillies cleanup hitter Ryan Howard was 0 for 4 with three strikeouts. He is 0 for 8 the last two

Oswalt had been 5-0 with a 3.25 ERA in 10 previous postseason starts, the biggest closing out old Busch Stadium and the Cardinals in 2005 to get Houston to its first World Series. The right-hander also worked seven shutout innings against St. Louis in the Phillies' NL East division clincher in mid-September. The biggest jolts for the Cardinals came from their seventh-place hitter. Freese was 2 for 12 the first three games with one RBI before punishing the fourth of the Phillies' aces. Freese's two-run double down the third-base line in the fourth put St. Louis up 3-2. His two-run homer to straightaway center in the sixth whipped the crowd into a towel-waving frenzy. Oswalt walked Lance Berkman and hit Matt Holliday, making his first start of the series, to start the fourth. Right fielder Hunter Pence made a fine running catch at the warning track to rob Yadier Molina of extra bases, but Freese jumped on a hanging curveball with a drive down the leftfield line. Holliday singled with one out in the sixth and Freese hit a 1-0 pitch to the pasture in straightaway center, not far from where a squirrel made an early appearance, for a three-run cushion. A squirrel also interrupted play in the fifth, racing
across the plate an instant after Oswalt's pitch to Skip Schumaker passed for a ball. Oswalt argued with home plate umpire Angel Hernandez, asking for no pitch. Phillies manager Charlie Manuel also argued without success and Schumaker, flied out to center on the next pitch. In Game 3 Tuesday, a squirrel was seen scampering in foul territory along the third base line. Five pitches into the game, the Phillies had a 20 lead with an assist from the late-afternoon playing conditions. Jay, standing in bright sunshine while shadows, took one step in on leadoff man Jimmy Rollins' drive on the first pitch of the game and retreated too late for a ball just over his glove that bounced over the wall for a ground-rule double. Utley tripled just inside the first-base line three pitches later and Pence lined an RBI single on the next pitch. NOTES: 2B Schumaker was taken out with a left hamstring cramp after a flyout in the fifth — the same at-bat the squirrel made its appearance. After disrupting play, the squirrel scampered through the stands. Schumaker is 5 for 8 in the series. ... Rollins doubled and had an infield hit his first two trips and has nine hits in the series. He has 14 multihit games in the playoffs, passing Howard for most in franchise history.

After a scoreless first half, Franklin-Monroe scored with 16 minutes to play for a 1-0 lead. Lehman came right back three minutes later, however, with Abby Ciriegio scoring off an assist from Madeline
Franklin. Lehman outshot F-M 11-2 in the first half and 23-8 in the game. “We are really struggling to put it in the net,” said Lehman coach Bill Ramey. “Their goalie (Aubrey Myers) had a heckuva game. She had some tremendous saves. But we also hit a lot of shots right at her. “Our defense was strong,” he added. “We didn’t give them much. But they scored on a direct kick. We got to it, but they followed it in.”
