SEPT. 21, 2012

BY LARA JAKES The Associated Press BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraq’s fugitive Sunni vice president was sentenced Sunday to death by hanging on charges he masterminded death squads against rivals in a terror trial that has fueled sec-

tarian tensions in the country.

Underscoring the instability, insurgents unleashed an onslaught of bombings and shootings across Iraq, killing at least 92 people in one of the deadliest days this year.

It’s unlikely that the attacks in 13 cities were all timed to coincide with the af-

ternoon verdict that capped a monthslong case against Vice President Tariq al-Hashemi, a longtime foe of Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

Still, taken together, the violence and verdict could energize Sunni insurgents bent on returning Iraq to the brink of civil war by targeting Shiites

and undermining the government.

Al-Hashemi fled to Turkey in the months after the Shiiteled government accused him of playing a role in 150 bombings, assassinations and other attacks from 2005 to 2011 — years in which the country See IRAQ/Page 7

Community pays tribute to Sept. 11 at Applefest

BY PATRICIA ANN SPEELMAN AND RACHEL LLOYD Despite the threat of dark skies and wet weather, the 10th annual Shelby County Applefest began without a hitch Saturday morning on the courtsquare and by 11 a.m., when the Sidney Civic Band struck up the first notes of the opening ceremonies, the sun had started to push the clouds away. Mother Nature stayed friendly through the weekend’s events, and the clouds had just begun to roll back in as the combined high school bands from throughout the county brought the festival to a close.

“This ceremony gives us the opportunity to celebrate all individuals who give of themselves to their family, friends, neighbors and communities,” said event chairwoman Amy Pike by way of welcome.

Phil Chilcote, director of the band, and his musicians provided a concert in tribute to Sept. 11. In addition, there were prayers, a wreath-laying, a bell service and a 21gun salute.

Deb Barga, president of the Sidney Rotary Club, acknowledged that the group’s annual pancake breakfast did see as much traffic early on, but it

Hal Epler, of Hilliard, tossed thousands of pancakes onto the plates of hungry people, with few misses. The employee of Chris Cakes said the business does some 500 events each year, many of them fundraisers.

Co-chairmen Darrell Spangler and Gary Elsass said the breakfast had been a success.

“After the rain stopped, people came out,” Elsass said.

“The celebrity pancake flip went well.” Area dignitaries compete yearly to flip pancakes across ever increasing distances onto waiting plates.

Participants in the 2012 edition’s first heat were Jodi Siegel, Tony Bornhorst and Jim Yost. Michelle Mumford, Bob Guillozet and Scott

Evans comprised the second heat. Siegel battled Mumford for top honors and won.

Runners in the annual 5K race feared having to dodge raindrops as they drove to the starting point of the competition. But their concerns were groundless. The rain stopped just in time.

Time is of the essence for courthouses

BY JENNIFER FEEHAN The Toledo Blade WAPAKONETA (AP) — Step inside the Auglaize County Courthouse and it’s easy to see why county commissioners make no apology for spending $9 million during tough economic times to restore the 1894 beauty.

The rich blues and greens

of the stained-glass windows are gleaming. Its three spacious courtrooms are resplendent with their original high ceilings uncovered, the latest technology tucked within the historic grandeur.

A 13-foot copper statue of Lady Justice that once stood atop the sandstone clock tower watches over those passing through the tiled

first-floor entrance hall.

“It’s been over a decade in the making. It’s so exciting to see it finally come to fruition,” a proud Auglaize County Commissioner Doug Spencer said. “It’s exceeded our expectations — what we planned for, what we envisioned, and what we actually have.”

Across Ohio, the county courthouse is typically the

finest building in town. Many were constructed in the decades after the Civil War as the developing counties sought to show their neighbors the fruits of their growing success, to demonstrate the importance of the law in a democratic society.

Auglaize County plans to rededicate its courthouse at See COURTHOUSE/Page 6

the grounds, and there were living history exhibits to interest the adults.

The castle was built with limestone from a nearby quarry, and its intricate and detailed woodworking was carved from trees cut from the Piatt grounds. Though the craftsmanship remains stunning, Kate Piatt-Eckert acknowledged that the home could use a face-lift.

The family’s nonprofit Mac-A-Cheek Foundation for the Humanities raises money for the programming that takes place, but upkeep is another matter.

“There are no grants to pay for plumbing, no charitable gifts that pay

for caulk,” said Piatt-Eckert, of the seventh generation to care for the land.

“We would like to do more to preserve the buildings, but our mission is and always has been to connect people with history and tell a story that matters and that’s what we’ll continue to do.”

Some of the visitors, such as Heather KeirnSwanson, know the castle well. Her father was a summer groundskeeper there more than 20 years ago, and she was married in the drawing room in 1999. She hadn’t been back since and came all the way from near Cleveland to take a look.

“It was grand then,

and it’s grand now,” Keirn-Swanson said. “It always amazed me that this wonderful place was in the middle of rural Ohio.”

Others, such as Candice Carper, lived nearly in the shadow of the castle their whole lives yet had never been inside.

Carper and her two young daughters toured the house recently. Dovelyn Godsey, who is almost 3, told her mom she wanted to see where the princesses live.

Dovelyn might have been the only visitor who left disappointed for, despite the building’s grandeur, there was not a princess in sight.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — The Howard Cooper Import Center in Ann Arbor is being taken over by new owners later this month, but there was something Cooper had to give his 89 employees.

Each received $1,000 for every year they worked at the dealership.

Cooper tells AnnArbor.com that he just wanted to thank them and he hopes “it makes a difference in their lives.”

The 83-year-old sold the dealership in April to Ohio-based Germain Motor Co. He declined to say how much all of the workers received, but mechanic Bob Jenkins’ check was $26,000. He has worked at the dealership 26 years.

Forty-six-year employee Sandy Reagan said Cooper received a standing ovation Wednesday morning when he gave workers the checks.

WEST LIBERTY (AP) — Like a little old lady whose face powder can no longer hide her wrinkles, Mac-A-Cheek Castle is showing her age.

Hundreds of people who visited the castle for a birthday celebration recently didn’t much care.

They overlooked the broken windows, the chipped limestone and the peeling paint.

The Gothic-style, turreted mansion nestled in the hills of Logan County was built in 1871 by Abram Sanders Piatt, a Union Army officer during the Civil War and a wealthy farmer and journalist. His brother, Donn Piatt, also a Union Army officer, built his own castle, Mac-O-Chee, less than a mile away. The names are nods to the Shawnee for “smiling valley.” Mac-A-Cheek opened to public tours in 1912 — hence, the 100-year celebration.

Tour guide Cody Peterson told visitors that the castle was reluctantly opened only after Abram’s son, William, moved in.

“William didn’t like to be bothered, but people kept coming around and asking to look inside,” Peterson said. “So William started charging admission to scare people off.

His plan backfired because people came along and paid it. And that’s when the Piatt family went on display.”

They’ve been welcoming guests ever since. At the birthday celebration, there was cake and ice cream in the parlor. Period games for children were scattered around

Word of the Week nectar — the saccharine secretion of a plant, which attracts the insects or birds that pollinate the flower

Newspaper Knowledge The two types of North American Hummingbird Moths are very hard to tell apart. One type is the Hummingbird Clearwing Moth, which (as you can tell by its name) resembles a small hummingbird. The other is the Snowberry Clearwing Moth which actually looks more like a large bumblebee, than a hummingbird.

The ranges of both species overlap quite a bit, so you can have both in a given location. Both species have fast moving, scaleless wings and furry bodies with large abdomens with coloration similar to that of a hummingbird. The scales on the wings are rubbed off in flight soon after it emerges from the pupa.

The Bookshelf Butterflies & Moths author: David A. Carter Attracting Birds, Butterflies & Other Winged Wonders to Your Backyard author: Kris Wetherbee 600 Butterflies and Moths in Full Color author: W.F. Kirby

Write On! Adults hover and sip nectar at many different flowers, including honeysuckle, beebalm, phlox, lilac and blueberry and milkweed. One of the sure ways to tell a Hummingbird Moth from a Hummingbird is that the moth will often rest on the flower while it drinks.

Have you ever spotted a Hummingbird Moth? If you have write a paragraph about your sighting and send it to the newspaper.

NIE Coordinator: Dana Wolfe / Graphic Designer: Scarlett E. Smith

Hummingbird Moth The Hummingbird Moth, unlike most moths, is seen on clear, sunny days.

Many people do confuse it with hummingbirds because of its coloration and how it moves.

Hummingbird Moths grow up to two inches long. They have an olive-green body with red bands across their abdomen. Tufts of hairs from the end of the abdomen look a lot like feathers.

The wings of this moth are mostly clear, sometimes with some red near the body.

Hummingbird Moths live in fields, gardens, and forest edges.

After mating, female moths lay eggs on host plants (food for caterpillars), such as honeysuckle, hawthorns, viburnum, and Black Cherry. The caterpillars, which hatch from eggs are yellowishgreen with darker green lines and reddish spots on the sides. They also have a yellow tail horn.

When caterpillars are fully grown, they climb down the host plant and into the soil where they make a cocoon and become a pupa (resting stage).

If it is early in the season, the adult moths will hatch in a few weeks. If it is in the Fall, the moths won't come out until the following Spring.

Adult Hummingbird Moths feed on nectar from many different flowers, just like hummingbirds. Some of their favorites include: Japanese Honeysuckle, Red Clover, Highbush Blueberry, thistles, wild roses, and blackberries.

Hummingbird Moths use a long, thin, needle-like mouthpart called a pro-

boscis to eat. The proboscis stays coiled up like a garden hose until it is time to use it. When the moth approaches a flower, it uncoils its proboscis and dips it deep into the flower where the nectar is.

Moths are Insects and belong to the Order Lepidoptera, which includes both moths and butterflies. There are about 100 families of moths with hundreds of genera (plural of genus) and more than 150,000 species. Moths live in all parts of the world, except in the very cold mountaintops and polar regions. Most Moths live in the trop-

ics.

Moths and Butterflies are very much alike, but there are several characteristics that moths have that butterflies don't: • Moths usually have less colorful wings.

• Moths have furrier bodies.

• The antennas of moths are feath-

Predators of Hummingbird Moths include birds, mantids, spiders, bats, and other moth and caterpillar-eaters, although they probably get some protection from looking so much like hummingbirds. ery or threadlike.

• Most moths fly at night. One exception to this rule is the Clearwing Hummingbird moth.

Like butterflies, moths go through a metamorphosis where the young change completely before becoming adults.

Dr. Robert Irwin Curry LIMA — Dr. Robert Irwin died Curry Thursday, Sept.

6, in St. Rita’s Medical Center, following a brief illness. He no longer is flying with the eagles.

Rather, he has left us to soar with the angels.

He was born on Sept.

4, 1923, to Dr. Roy Irwin and Martha Merciel Campbell Curry in Cleveland. On Dec. 26, 1954, he married Nancy Lee Dumbauld in Alexandria.

Dr. Curry attended Mansfield Schools, receiving his premed education at the College of Wooster and his Doctorate in Medicine from The Ohio State University in 1957. In 1957-58, he served an internship at St. Rita’s Hospital. Following his training, he established a family practice in Botkins and was a member of the staff of Wilson Memorial Hospital. In 1964, he returned to Lima, where he still maintained his office. He had served on the staff of both St. Rita’s Medical Center and Lima Memorial Health System. He had been a member of the American Medical Association, Ohio State Medical Association, Medical Association of Lima and Allen County, American Academy of Family Physicians, and was recognized in 2007 as being a 50-year member of the Ohio Academy of Family Physicians.

He was a member of Market Street Presbyterian Church where he was an elder and sang in the choir. He was a member and past president of the Lima Host Lions Club, taking great pride in being the song leader and attempting to sell the most carnations in the fall. He was humbled by being recognized for his service to the club by having received the Melvin Jones Fellowship Award. For years he had also been a member of the Lima Beane Chorus, always looking forward to the annual spring performances and Tuesday evening rehearsals. He had served as team physician for the Elida Schools football team.

Presently he looked forward to Tuesdays and Thursdays, when he played tennis with his tennis cronies. In addition, he spent many a happy hour gabbing with friends at the airport, Bob Evans and the Waffle House. He also eagerly looked forward to games of Five Crowns and usually was the winner. He loved the dog, Spotty, and was faithful in walking him around Sherwood Park, so they both could get their exercise. All the family enjoyed his renditions of college songs around the fire pit.

He became an Eagle Scout in 1939, and was a life member of the National Eagle Scout Association.

He was extremely proud that he had a son, a son-in-law and three grandsons that were also Eagle Scouts.

He was a 50-year member of the Grand Lodge of Ohio, belonging to Fort Amanda Lodge 706, F&AM; Lima Chapter 49, RAM; Lima Council 30, R&SM; Shawnee Commandery 14, KT; a 32nd degree Scottish Rite Mason–Valley of Dayton, and a member and past president of the Allen County Scottish Rite Association, member of the Antioch Shrine in Dayton, and a member

and past president of the Lima Shrine Club.

Anybody who knew Doc knew his passion for flying. Over the years, he owned eight different airplanes.

He was licensed to fly single, twin, and commercial planes, gliders, radio-controlled airplanes, and even paper planes! He had flown all over the United States and Canada, even to British Vancouver. In 1991, he flew to the Caribbean with his flying buddy and fellow Eagle Scout, Bill Geren. In June 1978, he was accredited by the Civil Air Patrol with saving a life for having flown in the middle of the night to Cincinnati to pick up an anti-encephalitis serum and flying it to Madison, Wis., to treat a veterinary medical student who had accidentally infected himself with the disease. In the ’70s, he had established two speed records in his Bonanza. One was from Miami to Atlanta and another from St. Louis to Memphis. He was a member of the Lima Flying Club, Airplane Ownand Pilots ers Association, Civil Air Patrol, Aerospace Medical Association, a member and on board of directors of both the Flying Physicians and Civil Aviation Medicine. He currently was an aviation medical examiner for the Federal Aviation Administration.

Besides his wife, Nancy, he is survived by eight children: Marilyn Merciel Curry (Ted) Shaw, of Dublin, David Roy (Carolyn) Curry, of San Francisco, Robert Bruce (Linne’) Curry, of Delphos, Tracey Marie (David) Osterloh, of Maria Stein, Martha Elizabeth (Richard) Scheer, of Lima, Laura Lee (Micheal) Reese, of Elida, William James (Christine) Curry, of Plain City, and Benjamin George (Beth), of Lewis Center.

COURTHOUSE

AP Photo/The Toledo Blade, Amy Voigt

A BRONZE sculpture in the foyer of the in the newly remodeled Auglaize County Courthouse on Aug. 28.

County Common Pleas Judge Sumner Walters said he sees that as he travels to different Ohio courthouses on assignment as a visiting judge.

He said he believes maintaining the state’s historic courthouses is vital to maintaining public confidence in the judicial system.

“I think they need to see something that is permanent and impressive — a temple of justice where they know they can walk in and be safe just like they can walk into a church or a cathedral and know they are safe,” Judge Walters said. “When we move the courts into an office building, we lose some of that.”

Hancock County Commissioner Ed Ingold said residents are proud of the county’s 1888 courthouse, a centerpiece of downtown Findlay with its stained-glass windows and skylights, carved walnut doors and woodwork, and commanding statues atop its clock tower.

It requires consistent and continual maintenance, though, top to bottom.

“I think in Seneca’s case they just let things go too far and too long without remediation, and that could happen to any old building,” Ingold said.

“It doesn’t take long unless you’re maintaining it and maintaining it properly and have the craftspeople that know how to do it. If we just let that building go and didn’t do anything to it, didn’t repair the half-dozen slates that come loose on the roof every year and

allow moisture to seep in, then it wouldn’t take long.”

Six years ago, Preservation Ohio was keeping its eye on courthouses in three counties: Seneca, Defiance and Marion.

All three were discussing the “d” word — a subject preservationists hoped would not rear its head again after the loss of the Franklin County courthouse in Columbus in 1974, the Richland County courthouse in Mansfield in 1969, and the Portage County courthouse in Ravenna in 1961.

No courthouses had been purposely demolished in the state since.

In the end, only Seneca fell.

Defiance County took the matter to voters, asking in 2006 for a sales tax increase to tear down its 1872 courthouse and build a new office building for the courts and other county departments. The measure was overwhelmingly rejected.

Commissioner Tom Kime said that whether voters didn’t want to pay higher taxes or whether they wanted to keep the county’s much-altered old courthouse didn’t matter.

The board decided that whatever it was going to do with the courthouse, it would do it with the money available in a phased-in approach.

“I think the public was pretty adamant about the first vote,” Mr. Kime said. “We decided we’ll just take care of it ourselves the best we can with the money we’ve got.”

SAVING

MADE EASY

BEAUFORT, S.C. (AP) — The Marine who drowned hours after graduating from boot camp has been identified as a 19-year-old private first class from Ohio.

Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island Lt. spokeswoman Melanie Salinas says Jonathon Crawford of Clermont County, Ohio, was an exemplary recruit. He was among 526 Marines who graduated Friday. Crawford was promoted to private first class, while others graduated as privates.

Crawford drowned hours later off Hunting Island State Park. Officials say Crawford disappeared while swimming about 40 yards from the beach. A relative called 911 after losing sight of him.

The body was recovered about 5:30 p.m. Friday.

The Island Packet of Hilton Head reports that roughly 600 recruits lined the street leading from the base as Crawford’s family left Saturday morning for Ohio.

Wagers fall TOLEDO (AP) — Casino wagers in Ohio fell for the second straight month.

Ohio’s two casinos report that betting dropped by 9 percent in August.

Gamblers in Toledo and Cleveland bet nearly $350 million last month. During the first full month of operation in June the two casinos brought in close to $418 million.

Commissioners are convinced the naysayers will be impressed. The project was completed on schedule and on budget, using both savings and federal stimulus money.

“We heard in the coffee shops, ‘Oh you guys are going to run out of money. You’re going to bankrupt the county.’ It was just a well-managed program,” Commissioner Don Regula said. “We heard we should’ve brought bulldozers in, pushed it in a pile, and built a new one. After they see it, we’re sure they’re going to change their minds, not everyone, but we’re very proud of it.”

In recent years, the vast majority of Ohio’s counties have spent considerable money to restore and maintain their halls of justice.

Some say they can’t afford to but vow they would never abandon theirs. And out of 88 counties, just four — Richland, Portage, Franklin, and Seneca — have deliberately demolished their courthouses in the last century.

The first three were torn down in the 1960s and ’70s before the historic preservation movement really took off.

Citing a cut in state funding to local governments, Seneca County brought in the bulldozers this year to raze its 1884 courthouse, one of two in Ohio that were designed by noted American architect Elijah E. Myers.

“What a tragedy,” said retired Delaware County Common Pleas Judge Henry E. Shaw, Jr., who followed the debate from a few counties south.

Across the state, county officials are keenly aware of what happened in Seneca County.

Joyce Barrett, director of Heritage Ohio, said she sees more counties that take care of their courthouses than not.

“When you’re in a county where they’re putting money into their courthouse, they’ll say, ‘We’re not like them.’ You get that everywhere,” she said.

“To use a bad example for good, to hold that up — that kind of solidifies a lot of people’s opinions in a propreservation way more effectively than if they had won. Because they lost that battle, I think it’s galvanized some communities to think about what they really want, about doing the right thing.”

Shaw spent 27 years on the bench in Delaware County’s Italianate brick courthouse, and although talk has surfaced in recent years about building a new justice center, there are no plans to demolish the 1870 landmark.

“The board of county commissioners has a history going back to the time of Moses of taking care of that building,” Judge Shaw said, adding that the courthouse is well preserved historically but also state of the art in terms of technology.

“I think the present board would surround the building with armed guards to protect it.

They’re pretty fussy about that building,” he said.

Possessiveness and pride can be good things when it comes to maintaining a county’s hall of justice.

Most were built in just that vein.

Romney, Obama aim at swing voters

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Monday, Sept.

10, the 254th day of 2012.

There are 112 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 10, 1912, the jungle character Tarzan made his debut as “Tarzan of the Apes” by Edgar Rice Burroughs was first published in The All-Story magazine. (The novel was published in book form in 1914.)

On this date: ■ In 1608, John Smith was elected president of the Jamestown colony council in Virginia.

■ In 1813, an American naval force commanded by Oliver H. Perry defeated the British in the Battle of Lake Erie during the War of 1812.

■ In 1846, Elias Howe received a patent for his sewing machine.

■ In 1919, New York City welcomed home Gen. John J. Pershing and 25,000 soldiers who’d served in the U.S. First Division during World War I. ■ In 1932, New York’s Independent City Owned Rapid Transit Railroad, later known as the IND, began service.

■ In 1939, Canada declared war on Germany.

■ In 1945, Vidkun Quisling was sentenced to death in Norway for collaborating with the Nazis (he was executed by firing squad in October 1945).

■ In 1962, the U.S. Supreme Court ordered the University of Mississippi to admit James Meredith, a black student.

■ In 1963, twenty black students entered Alabama public schools following a standoff between federal authorities and Gov. George C. Wallace.

■ In 1972, at the Munich Olympics, the U.S. Olympic basketball team lost to the Soviets, 51-50, in a goldmedal match marked by controversy because officials ordered the final three seconds of the game replayed, enabling the Soviets to win; the U.S. protested, to no avail.

Frank Shorter of the United States won the men’s marathon.

■ In 1979, four Puerto Rican nationalists imprisoned for a 1954 attack on the U.S. House of Representatives and a 1950 attempt on the life of President Harry S. Truman were freed from prison after being granted clemency by President Jimmy Carter.

■ In 1987, Pope John Paul II arrived in Miami, where he was welcomed by President and Mrs. Reagan as he began a 10-day tour of the United States.

SECURITY FORCES inspect the scene of a car bomb attack in Basra, 340 miles (550 kilometers) southeast of Baghdad, Iraq, Sunday. In violence, which struck at least 10 cities across the nation Insurgents killed at least 39 people in a wave of attacks against Iraqi security forces on Sunday, gunning down soldiers at an army post and bombing police recruits waiting in line to apply for jobs, officials said.

IRAQ was mired in retaliatory sectarian violence that followed the 2003 U.S.-led invasion that ousted Saddam Hussein’s Sunni regime. Most of the attacks were allegedly carried out by al-Hashemi’s bodyguards and other employees, and largely targeted government officials, security forces and Shiite pilgrims.

The vice president declined to immediately comment on the verdict after meeting with the Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu in Ankara.

He said he would “tackle this issue in a statement” in coming hours.

The politically charged case — which was announced the day after U.S. troops withdrew from the country last December — sparked a government crisis and fueled Sunni Muslim and Kurdish resentment against al-Maliki, whom critics say is monopolizing power.

From Page 1 Violence has ebbed significantly, but insurgents continue to stage high-profile bombings and shooting rampages. AlQaida’s Iraq branch has promised a comeback in predominantly Sunni areas from which it was routed by the U.S. and its local allies after sectarian fighting peaked in 2007.

“These attacks show alQaida’s ability to hit any place in Iraq and at any time,” said Ali Salem, 40, an elementary school teacher in Baghdad.

“The lack of security could take us back to zero.”

The worst violence on Sunday struck the capital, where bombs pounded a half-dozen neighborhoods — both Sunni and Shiite — thoughout the day. But the deadliest attacks in Baghdad hit Shiite areas Sunday evening, hours after the al-Hashemi verdict was announced. In all, 42 people were

killed in the capital and 120 wounded, according to police and hospital officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information.

The countrywide attacks began before dawn, with gunmen killing soldiers at an army post in the central Iraqi city of Dujail. A few hours later, a car exploded in a lot where police recruits waiting in line to apply for jobs outside Kirkuk in the country’s north. Both Dujail and Kirkuk are former insurgent strongholds.

Over the day, at least 92 people were killed and more than 360 wounded in at least 21 separate bombings and shootings, according to reports from police and hospital officials. No group immediately claimed responsibility, but Iraq’s Interior Ministry blamed al-Qaida in Iraq.

McGuire sister dies PHOENIX (AP) — Dorothy McGuire Williamson, who teamed with sisters Christine and Phyllis for a string of hits in the 50s and 60s as the popular McGuire Sisters singing group, has died. She was 84.

Williamson died Friday at her son’s home in the Phoenix suburb of Paradise Valley, daughter-in-law Karen Williamson said. She had Parkinson’s disease and age-related dementia.

The McGuire Sisters earned six gold records for hits including 1954’s “Sincerely” and 1957’s “Sugartime.” The sisters were

known for their sweet harmonies and identical outfits and hairdos.

They began singing together as children at their mother’s Ohio church and then performed at weddings and church revivals. They got their big break on Arthur Godfrey’s Talent Scouts show in 1952 where they continued to perform for seven years.

The group made numerous appearances on television and toured into the late 1960s, making a last performance together on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1968. Dorothy stepped back to raise her two sons, Williamson said.

BOSTON (AP) — With swing voters in his sights, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is tacking toward the center on health care and defense spending now that he’s put his final partisan hurdle behind him and the sprint to Nov. 6 is underway.

Romney said in an interview that aired Sunday that he would retain some popular parts of the 2010 health care law he has pledged to repeal, saying the features he would keep are commonsense measures in what he calls an otherwise costly, inefficient plan.

The former Massachusetts governor also faulted congressional Republicans for going along with the White House on a budget deal that has set up automatic spending cuts that include huge reductions in defense spending — a deal his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, helped steer.

Meanwhile, President Barack Obama focused Floridians’ attention on the Republican ticket’s stand on Medicare, an issue that’s been more favorable to Democrats.

Romney’s campaign dismissed the idea that the comments were a lurch toward the middle now that the Republican convention, the last partisan event of the campaign, has passed, even as Romney was visiting the most competitive states on the election map.

“I’m not getting rid of all of health care reform. Of course, there are a number of things that I like in health care reform that I’m going to put in place,” Romney told NBC’s “Meet the Press” in an interview taped Friday and Saturday. He cited coverage for people with medical conditions and new insurance marketplaces.

Romney’s aides said that was consistent with his previous position that those who haven’t had a gap in coverage shouldn’t be denied coverage.

OUT OF THE BLUE

‘Possession’ is No. 1 LOS ANGELES (AP) — “The Possession” occupied the top spot at a nearly comatose box office.

The fright flick with Kyra Sedgwick and Jeffrey Dean Morgan playing the parents of a girl possessed by a demon earned $9.5 million in its second outing, the lowest grossing weekend for the box office this year and one of the worst weekends at the box office in a decade. It marked the first time since 2008 that no film managed to crack the $10 million mark.

The weekend after Labor Day is typically the slowest of the year, but this weekend’s grosses were down 20 percent over last year when “Contagion” opened in first place with $22.4 million. Total box office revenues are estimated at $67 million, which would make this the worst weekend at the box office since the weekend after 9/11 when revenues were $59.7 million.

IN THIS April 17 file photo, One World Trade Center rises above the lower Manhattan skyline and the National September 11 Memorial and Museum, in New York. Eleven years after terrorists attacked the World Trade Center, the new World Trade Center now dominates the lower Manhattan skyline.

NEW YORK (AP) — With its huge reflecting pools, ringed by waterfalls and skyscrapers, and a cavernous underground museum still under construction, the National Sept. 11 Memorial and Museum at the World Trade Center is an awesome spectacle that moved and inspired some 4.5 million visitors in its first year.

But all that eye-welling magnificence comes with a jaw-dropping price tag. The foundation that runs the memorial estimates that once the roughly $700 million project is complete, the memorial and museum will together cost $60 million a year to operate.

The anticipated cost has bothered some critics and raised concerns even among the memorial’s allies that the budget may be unsustainable without a hefty government subsidy.

By comparison, the National Park Service budgeted $8.4 million this year to operate and maintain Gettysburg National Military Park and $3.6 million for the monument that includes the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor.

Running Arlington National Cemetery, which has more than 14,000 graves and receives 4 million visitors a year, costs $45 million annually.

Officials at the 9/11 memorial say they face unique challenges that make comparisons to other national memorials difficult.

The foundation plans to spend at least a fifth of its operating budget, or around $12 million per year, on private security because of terrorism fears. Visitors to the memorial plaza pass through airportlike security, and armed guards patrol the grounds.

“The fact of the matter is that this was a place that was attacked twice,” said Joseph Daniels, the foundation’s president and chief executive.

Just operating the two massive fountains that mark the spots where the twin towers once stood will cost another $4.5 million to $5 million annually, said the foundation’s spokesman, Michael Frazier.

Foundation officials didn’t respond to requests for information about other costs at the site, including the anticipated expense of running the museum, which is still unfinished and might not be anytime soon.

The museum was supposed to open this month, but construction all but ceased a year ago because of a funding squabble between the foundation and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which owns the land the memorial sits on.

These kids are all children of their friends and some of them don’t even live in our neighborhood.

Do you think parents should choose their kids’ friends? — Mindy, Ada, Okla.

MINDY: I don’t believe that parents should choose friends for their children. But I do feel that parents should be aware of who their children are associating with and should restrict them from befriending any who don’t meet the qualifications of a “good kid.”

Annual meeting Getting the annual Shelby County Farm Bureau annual meeting of members going are (l-r) bureau interim President Aaron Heiler, of Anna; organization Chairman Mike Bensman, of Sidney; organization Director Jill Smith; and board member Jason Fogt, of Anna. The meeting was held at St. Michael’s Hall in Fort Loramie on Aug. 26.

Jackson Center FFA chapter gets environmental grant JACKSON CENTER — A local FFA chapter has developed a plan to tackle an environmental issue in the community, and now its FFA members have received a national grant to bring their ideas to life.

The Jackson Center FFA received a $1,960 grant from the National FFA Organization’s Living to Serve: Environmental Grant program and will begin its yearlong environmental project when the school year resumes. The Living to Serve: Environmental Grants are provided

through funding from CSX, as a special project of the National FFA Foundation.

The National FFA Organization makes grant funds available for FFA chapters to develop service-learning projects that impact environmental issues in their community.

Chapters may apply for up to $2,000 to support yearlong service-learning projects focused on developing and implementing projects that address local environmental needs. The service-learning method challenged members to identify, research, develop

and implement solutions to needs within their school or community.

These projects illustrate the final line of the FFA motto (“Learning to Do, Doing to Learn, Earning to Live, Living to Serve�) by encouraging FFA members to unite in service within their communities. The LTS: Environmental Grants take community service one step further to servicelearning, which provides a meaningful way to apply leadership and education skills learned in school and FFA, FFA officials said.

Planting depth is critical for tiller development and winter survival. Plant seed 1.5 inches deep and make sure planting depth is uniform across the field.

Shallow planting is the main cause of low tiller numbers and poor overwinter survival due to heaving and freezing injury. Remember, you cannot compensate for a poor planting job by planting more seeds; it just costs more money.

And finally, apply 20 to 30 pounds of actual nitrogen per acre at planting to promote fall tiller development. A soil test should be completed to determine phosphorus and potassium needs. Soil pH should be between 6.3 and 7.0.

The key to a successful wheat crop is adequate and timely management.

The above recommendations are guidelines that can be fine-tuned to fit your farming operation and soils.

Grain merchant to speak at Ag Luncheon

Iowa study aimed at making tractors safer for kids CORALVILLE, Iowa (AP) — Researchers who hope to prevent children from dying in tractor accidents are turning to a state-of-the-art driving simulator to help determine when kids can safely operate farm equipment.

Teens are at least four times more likely to die on a farm than in any other workplace. The U.S. Department of Labor tried to address the problem earlier this year with rules that would have limited their ability to operate farm equipment.

But the Obama administration dropped the proposal after farm families and groups denounced it as overreaching and an attack on their way of life.

With regulation off the table, scientists at the University of Iowa and the Marshfield Clinic in Wisconsin are trying to attack the problem from a different angle. They’re looking at how children of different ages process in-

LOCAL NEWS

Sidney Daily News, Monday, September 10, 2012

APPLEFEST run,” said Darryl Cloud, of Sidney, sporting a commemorative T-shirt later in the day. His granddaughter, Mikayla Byrd, 8, of Troy, was enjoying her second Applefest.

“Everything is my favorite part,” she said.

Brenda and Scott Ferguson, of Sidney, and their son, Gage, 5, have attended Applefest for a number of years for the car show.

“It brings back a lot of memories,” Scott said.

Gage’s favorite car was a 1957 Chevy, he said. But he liked a Camaro, too, “because it’s red.”

Inside the Historic Sidney Theatre, Mardie Milligan, president of Raise the Roof, said a steady stream of people had gone in to look at an industrial exhibit and at the theater, itself.

“We’re collecting memories,” she said, as she asked for the name and address of a woman who had been employed at the theater years ago.

Honda of America’s larger exhibit was on the courthouse lawn. It comprised one of each model of Honda Accord cars produced since the company began operations in Ohio in 1982. A smaller exhibit was erected in the theater.

Sandy Schoffner, of Sidney, with her husband and some friends, enjoyed a display by Emerson Climate Technologies.

“I’ve worked at Copeland 45 years in January,” she said. “I wanted to see this. The video seems to show a lot of the operations.”

Showing off their books for sale were 10 area writers who participated in the local author book sale and signing in the courthouse.

Among them were Tim Smith, of Dayton, and Larry Hamilton, of Piqua. Smith writes romantic mystery thrillers for Extasy Books. Hamilton has self-published two volumes of an historical narrative trilogy about his great-greatgrandmother, Lucy.

Also exhibiting in the courthouse were members of the Dayton N

Track model train club, with their tiny toy trains set up in suitcases.

On the courthouse lawn Saturday, hundreds of people enjoyed music by Higgins & Madewell, the Avalons, the Rick Frazier Band, Nashville Crush and the Websters. The Sidney Dance Company created a flash mob during a reunion of former dancers.

But it was for the festival food that Jennie Freeman, Ashlie Freeman and Dale Feazel, all of Sidney, had returned to Applefest. They were enjoying lunch on the street, purchased from festival vendors. Feazel said that they also attended for the arts and crafts.

Sunday also offered breakfast fare for the early arrivals, with the annual Shelby County 4H breakfast benefit at the Elks lodge.

The Miami-Shelby Melody Men Chorus entertained following the Community Worship Service in the morning, and an enthusiastic crowd enjoyed the Christian rock band, More Than a Show, while enjoying lunch, Sunday.

While wandering around downtown, visitors were able to stop by the petting zoo to get up close and personal with some ducks, goats and other cute farm animals.

Shelby County’s amateur photographers were able to feature their favorite pictures of local people and places in the display set up in the courthouse’s lower floor.

A planned cornhole tournament was canceled.

A steady stream of visitors made their way to the Senior Center’s Cameo Theatre to see the stunning fabric arts in the ever-popular quilt show.

Outside the Job and Family Services Office, woodchips intermittently filled the air as chainsaws transformed logs into works of art.

The activity in the front of the building was a fitting invitation to draw the Applefest visitors inside for the woodcarvers show and sale, featuring work from the humorous

Page 11

From Page 1 to the sublime. The space inside was also filled with the sweet smell and eye-pleasing colors of the annual floral competition and exhibit, as well as the pride of area gardeners in the Grown in Shelby County contest.

Out at the Shelby County Fairgrounds, food on sale at the Shelby County Historical Society’s Native American Gathering had a distinctly non-festival flavor. Visitors there munched on elk burgers and fry bread.

The grand entrance to begin the gathering got under way an hour later than planned Saturday, as American Indians and veterans ceremoniously entered a performance ring to the beat of drums and vocal incantations

by Thunder with the Hands and Southern Singers.

A chilly breeze had the national and armed services flags blowing full out as traditional, grass and jingle dancers paraded around them.

Master of ceremonies Aaron Stevens, of Richmond, Ind., announced the pow-wow was in honor of the late Martin Tallhorse Chambers, a Fort Loramie resident who had promoted the idea for the event and worked to bring the idea to fruition until he died in May. Back downtown Sunday, the crowd gathered to line the streets for the crown of the weekend — the Applefest Parade.

The parade had nearly 70 units, as well as the Antioch Shriners, whose motor corps delighted spectators with their antics on their tiny motorcycles, buggies and racecars. Each high school band drew cheers as it passed along the route.

The festival culminated with a performance by the county’s high school bands on courtsquare. The powerful sound of the combined bands filled the air with a variety of melodies ranging from “The StarSpangled Banner” to Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” in a fitting end to a festive weekend.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Relations with family members, especially older ones, are a bit tense today.

Knowing this ahead of time, don’t push your luck. Keep your head down and your powder dry.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s easy to fall into worry mode today.

Just remember the saying: “Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.”

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might be disappointed in your finances today. Maybe nothing has changed since yesterday except that you feel your glass is half-empty instead of half-full.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Moon is in your sign today, but it is dancing with harsh, stern Saturn.

This casts everything in a pessimistic light.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) The best way to handle the energy of today is to work alone and keep working. If you are diligent and persevering, you won’t get hung up on trivial, troublesome details.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Someone in a group situation might rain on your parade today. They’re critical of whatever you’re trying to do.

Don’t take this personally — many people are discouraged today.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is a poor day to ask for approval or permission, because bosses, parents and people in authority are unwilling to cooperate. Instead, their answer will be, “Talk to the hand!”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Study seems challenging today. Furthermore, rules and regulations might curtail your hopes to travel or explore new ideas. It appears you have to toe the line.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is not a good day to sit down and divide something or decide how to share something. Someone will be unhappy, because people are stingy.

(Ouch.)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You might feel obligated to a friend or partner today. And in a sense, it’s true: You have to go more than halfway when dealing with others, because the Moon today is opposite your sign.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Tackle routine, ordinary work that requires concentration on details. This is the best way to deal with today. It’s not a glamorous day; it’s a day for steady work. (Ho-hum.)

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Children might feel like an increased responsibility today. Similarly, it’s hard to find joy in romance or the entertainment world. Today is just plain vanilla.

YOU BORN TODAY You live by your own rules. You’re opinionated, but you want to be free. You often make big decisions that change your life. You are fond of children because you are a nurturer. You also can be highly dramatic!

In the year ahead, you will make a conscious choice to learn or study something important. (Your rewards soon will follow.)

The veteran kegler came up with what is believed to be the highest three-game aggregate ever registered here or around the area by the way of a stupendous 751. Starting out with a 206, Mose proved that he was just warming up for his brilliant achievement as he blazed away in his next two games for scorching 277 and 268 counts. No details were available on the number of strikes that Zimpher recorded, but needless to say, his Lochard Heating blasted Sidney Sand and Gravel under an 8-0 shelling.

It would be helpful if Ken had a more outgo-

The bottom line, however, is that you are the parent in that household. Your children do not have to “love” Ken, but they DO have to treat him with respect and consideration. If love grows from that — terrific. If not, so be it.

ODDS

AND ENDS

PHOENIX (AP) — An Arizona woman is wondering what hurt more: getting stung by a scorpion or seeing her hospital bill after treatment.

Marcie Edmonds says the bill from Chandler Regional Medical Center was more than $83,000.

That includes two doses of anti-venom at nearly $40,000 per dose.

The Arizona Republic says Edmonds' insurer has paid more than $57,000 and the suburban Phoenix hospital is

asking Edmonds for the balance of about $25,000.

The 52-year-old Ahwatukee (Foothills resident was stung in June while opening a box of air conditioner filters in her garage.

Edmonds says an emergency room doctor told her about the Mexican anti-venom Anascorp that could quickly relieve her symptoms, but she was never told about the cost.

lose Miller runs Bucks to win Reds to Astros

But will he hold up to the pounding?

again, 5-1

BY JIM NAVEAU Ohio Community Media COLUMBUS – After Ohio State’s 31-16 win over Central Florida on Saturday, OSU offensive lineman Marcus Hall said he has never played with a quarterback like Braxton Miller.

“He runs his butt off. He does it every game,” Hall said.

There is no doubt about that. Miller’s rushed 27 times for 141 yards against UCF, his second consecutive 100-yard game to start this season, and scored three touchdowns. He also completed 18 of 24 passes for 155 yards and a touchdown.

Where doubt creeps in, though, is if Miller can hold up under the pounding of running the ball as often as he has in the Buckeyes’ first two games. He rushed 17 times for 161 yards in the season opener against Miami of Ohio last Saturday.

Those 17 carries by the sophomore quarterback earned the label of “too many” from coach Urban Meyer.

And then he went out and ran the football 10 times beyond “too many” when No. 14 Ohio State (2-0) held off Central Florida (1-1).

Miller’s heavy workload was partially a product of starting tailback Carlos Hyde going down with a sprained knee late in the second quarter, but mostly because he is, by far, Ohio State’s best offensive threat.

“Braxton Miller is the most talented runner on the team,” Meyer said. “That’s too much, 27 hits. He’s blown out right now. We have to be smart.

Vick rallies Eagles past Browns CLEVELAND (AP) —Even after his heroics saved Philadelphia from embarrassment, Michael Vick still had escape on his mind.

“Oh, man,” the quarterback said. “I gotta get out of Cleveland.”

The Eagles hardly soared, but flew away with a win anyway.

Overcoming four interceptions — and nearly a fifth — by throwing a 4-yard touchdown pass to tight end Clay Harbor with 1:18 left, Vick rallied the penalty-prone Eagles to a nerve-racking, 17-16 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

With his team trailing 1610, Vick marched them 91 yards for the go-ahead score on his career-high 56th pass.

Before that, the superstar played poorly and showed major rustiness after getting just 12 snaps during the preseason because of injuries.

But when it mattered most, Vick came through, and the Eagles, who hurt themselves with five turnovers and 12 penalties, prevailed.

“I wasn’t going to disappoint my coaches and I wasn’t going to disappoint my teammates,” Vick said. “Whatever it took, I was going to get it done.”

Vick went 29 of 56 for 317 yards and threw two TDs, his first to Jeremy Maclin for 18 yards in the final minute of the first half. But besides those two passes, there were moments when Vick forced passes and looked more like a rookie than a four-time Pro Bowler.

On the play before his TD pass to Harbor, Vick underthrew Maclin and was nearly intercepted by rookie line-

“He threw it right to me,” said Fort, who picked Vick off in the first half. “I should have made that play, definitely.”

But in the end, Vick was the one who made the biggest plays.

“I thought he was rusty,” Eagles coach Andy Reid said.

“But he kept competing, kept shooting. He’s our quarterback and he had to work through it. He had to play, had to endure and had to tough it

out.”

Browns rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden threw four interceptions, the last to Kurt Coleman with 1:05 remaining, as Cleveland fell to 1-13 in season openers since 1999.

LeSean McCoy rushed for 110 yards for Philadelphia, which trailed 16-10 in the fourth after Browns linebacker D’Qwell Jackson returned Vick’s fourth pick 27 yards for a touchdown. But even though Cleveland had the lead, there was still plenty of time for Vick.

“It didn’t matter what we did for three quarters,” Jackson said. “We had to stop them to win the game. We were on the field to win it and we lost.”

With Vick struggling, the Eagles appeared doomed and poised to follow their ill-fated “Dream Team” season with an embarrassing loss. Owner Jeffrey Lurie recently said a second straight 8-8 record would not cut it, and the Eagles were nearly on their way to mediocrity.

“We did enough positive things to win the game,” said Reid, whose 15th season in Philadelphia began after a personally difficult summer when his 29-year-old son, Garrett, was found dead. “Nobody hung their head. The defense made big play after big play.

But with the turnovers and penalties, we have a lot to take care of.”

On the winning drive, the Eagles converted a fourthand-1 after Vick scrambled for 9 and fumbled on third down.

He recovered, but Browns coach Pat Shurmur threw his red challenge flag and asked the replacement officials to review the play.

However, referee Ken Roan discussed the play with the booth and announced it was “not challengeable.”

“I know it was a fumble,” Shurmur insisted. “I saw us with the ball. So that’s why I challenged it.”

Weeden’s day started on a comical note as he got trapped under a giant American flag being unfurled on the field for the national anthem.

The rest of his pro debut wasn’t so funny.

He finished 12 of 35 for 118 yards, had the four picks and forced several throws.

CINCINNATI (AP) — The Cincinnati Reds played their last game against the Houston Astros as NL opponents but they will not forget Matt Dominguez anytime soon.

Dominguez hit a three-run homer, Tyler Greene added a solo shot and the Astros slowed Cincinnati’s run to the NL Central title with a 5-1 win over the Reds on Sunday.

The 23-year old former first-round pick of the Marlins came to the Astros in exchange for Carlos Lee. All three of his homers have been at the expense of the Reds, and the last two were key in winAP Photo/Tom Uhlman ning two JOHNNY CUETO games in reacts to a threethis series. run homer he He hit a gave up Sunday. ninth-inning, three-run home run off Aroldis Chapman on Friday to lift the Astros to a 5-3 win.

“I’m really pleased with the guys,” said Astros interim manager Tony DeFrancesco, who like most of his players wasn’t here to endure Houston’s struggles on the road.

“It’s been a long season for a lot of these guys. To win a series against the team with the (second-best) record in baseball is great. Dominguez had the big hit.”

Edgar Gonzalez allowed two hits and one run in five innings against the Reds, who came in with a magic number of 14 for eliminating secondplace St. Louis. Gonzalez (2-0) walked one and struck out six, and the Astros limited Cincinnati to five hits overall while winning a road series for the first time since early June against the White Sox. Gonzalez developed a blister on his right foot and had to leave the game against his wishes.

Gonzalez’s career was in a downward spiral until he landed with the Astros. He was released twice by major league teams and went to the Mexican League before Houston signed him to a minor league deal in August.

The Reds, who also lost two of three against Philadelphia in the first series of their ninegame homestand, have lost back-to-back series for the first time since being swept by Cleveland June 18-20 and losing two of three to Minnesota June 22-24.

Houston relievers Wesley Wright, Mickey Storey and Wilton Lopez combined for eight strikeouts over four shutout innings.

After going 11-0 in his first 13 afternoon starts this season, Johnny Cueto has struggled in his last two. He gave up eight hits and four runs in seven innings of a 4-2 loss to Philadelphia on Labor Day and followed up by getting knocked around for four runs on nine hits with six strikeouts in four innings on Sunday.

The last-place Astros scored a first-inning run for the third time in the threegame series, then took command with a two-out, fourth-inning rally sparked by Wallace’s single to right. After Martinez walked, Dominguez drove Cueto’s 1-0 pitch into the left field seats.

Cueto (17-8) matched his season low in innings while losing a second consecutive start for the first time since July 3.

Jackets score 21 points Minster, Russia 1-2 at Tiffin meet in 4th quarter, but lose 1st WEST CARROLLTON — Sidney dug itself too large a hole to climb out of, and despite a 21point final period, lost for the first time this season, 31-24 to West Carrollton in a Greater Western Ohio Conference crossover football game, completed Saturday afternoon.

The game was halted Friday night late in the first quarter with West Carrollton leading 7-3, and when play resumed Saturday, the Pirates put up 10 more points in the second period to lead 17-3 at the half.

The Jackets struck quickly on a 60-yard pass from Troy Rosengarten to Kaleb Martin with 3:52 left, then added another score with 2:02 remaining on a 10-yard run by Fox. But the Jackets could get no closer.

Sidney had trouble running the ball, Fox being the leading rusher with 39 yards on 15 carries. Sidney averaged just 2.3 yards per rush.

Fox finished 8-for-23 for 127 yards and a touchdown, but was also picked off three times.

Gordon grabs SCOREBOARD last Chase spot F OOTBALL

OSU-Central Florida

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Four-time series champion Jeff Gordon felt like his hopes were dead in the water when NASCAR red-flagged his last chance to get into the playoffs because of rain at Richmond International Raceway.

His car wasn’t running like it needed to be, and the chance seemed to be slipping away.

But just as major adjustments made by his crew started to pay off for Gordon and he began racing up to even challenge for the lead, a gamble by Kyle Busch’s team failed in the biggest way possible: Gordon, not Busch, grabbed the last spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup — the playoffs that begin next weekend.

The victory margin?

Three points.

“I felt like I won the race tonight,” Gordon said early Sunday morning after finishing second to Clint Bowyer. The race was interrupted three times by rain, including the red-flag stoppage. “When that was over, and they told me I was in the Chase, we made it, I mean, I was ecstatic. I was going nuts.”

Gordon, once the dominant driver in the sport, hasn’t claimed a series title since 2001. He’s missed qualifying for the playoffs just once, but never had to scrap his way into the field like this time.

“Went from last week being the most disappointed I’ve ever been to finish second to this week being the most excited I’ve ever been to finish second,” he said.

“Wow! What a race for us!”

Busch was left feeling the opposite after a nondescript race, especially for him at Richmond, where he had won four times, and claimed his only victory of this season on the series’ first visit in May.

Lehman games postponed Lehman’s boys and girls soccer teams were to play their first home games of the season Saturday, but the heavy rains from Friday night resulted in the games being postponed.

The two teams have had several home games moved after a utility truck drove across the field and left substantial damage in its wake before the start of the season.

The field was repaired, but the rain Friday made the repaired portion unplayable.

The games have not yet been rescheduled.

From Page 18 Bri Garber had nine kills to lead Houston, Taylor Willoughby had 14 assists and two aces.

Kortney Phipps had seven kills, and Monique Booher had three ace serves.
