U.S. economy recovering But it’s not very strong WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy’s recovery looks enduring. It’s just not very strong. Hiring, housing, consumer spending and manufacturing all appear to be improving, yet remain less than healthy. Economists surveyed by The Associated Press expect growth to pick up this year, though not enough to lower unemployment much. A clearer picture of the nation’s economic health will emerge Friday, when the government reveals how many jobs employers added in April. “The outlook is for continued moderate growth,” John Williams, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, said in a speech Thursday. “Nonetheless, we have nearly 4 million fewer jobs today than five years ago, and the unemployment rate remains very high at 8.2 percent.” See ECONOMY/Page 5

WASHINGTON (AP) — Letters from Osama bin Laden’s last hideaway, released by U.S. officials intent on discrediting his terror organization, portray a network weak, inept and under siege — and its leader seemingly near wit’s end about the passing of his global jihad’s glory days. The documents, published online Thursday, are a small sample of those seized during the U.S. raid on bin Laden’s Pakistan compound in which he was killed a year ago. By no accident, they show al-Qaida at its worst. The raid has become the signature national security moment of Barack Obama’s presidency and one he is eager to emphasize in his re-election campaign. Those ends are served in the 17 documents chosen by U.S. officials for the world to see — not to mention American voters. The Obama administration has refused to release a fuller record of its bin Laden collection, making it difficult to glean any larger truths about the state of
the terrorist organization. What is clear from the documents released so far is that al-Qaida’s leaders are constantly on the run from unmanned U.S. aircraft and trying to evade detection by CIA spies and National Security Agency eavesdroppers. In one letter, either bin Laden himself or his senior deputy tells the leader of Yemen’s al-Qaida offshoot that, in the face of U.S. power, it is futile to try to establish a government that will offer it safe haven. “Even though we were able to militarily and economically exhaust and weaken our greatest enemy before and after the eleventh,” the letter says, referring to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, “the enemy continues to possess the ability to topple any state we establish.” Again and again in the letters, bin Laden and his inner circle struggle to keep the focus of Islamic terrorism on killing Americans and tamp down attacks by al-Qaida affiliates on Muslim innocents. The documents describe the U.S. as “a malicious tree with a huge trunk,” and

Local writer wins $10,000 first prize Christina Ryan Claypool, of Sidney, is the $10,000 firstprize winner of the 27th annual 2011 Amy Writing Award, selected from more than 700 submissions nationwide. Claypool Claypool, who writes an opinion column for the Sidney Daily News, is a Christian speaker, freelance journalist and the author of several books, including “Seeds of Hope for Survivors.” Her winning article, “Finding Forgiveness,” was written as a Sunday feature for The Lima News on Aug. 14, 2011.
The story focused on the Dale Henderson family’s struggle to cope with the loss of a loved one and to forgive the murderer — a man well-known to the victim and her family in their Lima community. As winner of the first prize, Claypool joins a growing list of authors who for 27 years have shown how biblical principles applied to the serious issues of life earn a legitimate place in mainstream print journalism. The Amy Foundation will present the $10,000 first prize to Claypool at the 2012 annual Michigan Prayer Breakfast May 16 in Lansing. Biblical teaching, which sustains members of the family and community, is woven throughout Claypool's winning article. This includes the

Widow to get exotic animals BY ANN SANNER Associated Press COLUMBUS (AP) — The widow of a suicidal animal owner who released dozens of exotic creatures last fall will get the five surviving animals back from an Ohio zoo on Friday. And a friend says the woman plans to take the animals back to the farm in eastern Ohio where they previously lived. Cyndi Huntsman told The Associated Press on Thursday that Marian Thompson intends to return the animals to the Zanesville farm once she gets the two leopards, two primates and a bear back from the Columbus zoo. The animals have been held at the zoo since
October under a state-issued quarantine order, which was lifted Monday. A statement from the zoo on Thursday said the animals would be transferred back to Thompson on Friday. Zoo spokeswoman Patty Peters said animals would be loaded into the zoo’s heavy steel crates, which she says would need to be moved with a forklift. The leopards and bear would be sedated to be placed in the crates, then awoken once loaded into Thompson’s vehicle. “We’re using drugs that can be reversed, so that we know they are awake before they ever leave here,” Peters said. She said she doesn’t expect the primates to be sedated.
Thompson is the widow of Terry Thompson, who released 56 animals — including black bears, mountain lions and Bengal tigers — from his eastern Ohio farm Oct. 18 before he committed suicide. Fearing for the public’s safety, authorities killed 48 of the animals. Three leopards, two Celebes macaques and a bear survived and were taken to the Columbus zoo after the release. One spotted leopard had to be euthanized at the zoo in January. The macaques are small primates; the female weighs about 6 pounds, and the male weighs more than 10 pounds. Huntsman operates Stump Hill Farm near Massillon in northeast
Ohio, which cares for and exhibits native and exotic animals ranging from tigers to coyotes to parrots. State officials had believed last fall that her farm could be a potential new home for Thompson’s animals. But the animals were never sent there. Huntsman said her property had been considered as a temporary home to give Thompson time to get her farm ready for the animals. “She’s told me that she has made improvements,” Huntsman said in a telephone interview. “There was nothing wrong with the leopards’ cages that they were in prior. She told me she got a perimeter fence around it. And they’ve all been cleaned.”
Ohio officials find scam suspect’s cash COLUMBUS (AP) — Authorities have found more than $981,000 in Oregon belonging to a fugitive accused of running a scam that collected m i l l i o n s Thompson in donations from people who believed they were helping U.S. Navy veterans. Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine says the U.S. Marshals Service and investigators from his office found more
CLEVELAND (AP) — Five men suspected of plotting to bomb an Ohio bridge were indicted Thursday on three counts each, including a new charge of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction to destroy property in interstate commerce. The indictment was announced by U.S. Attorney Steven Dettelbach, who said the men also were charged with conspiracy and attempted use of an explosive device to destroy property in interstate commerce.
The men could face life in prison if convicted of trying to bomb the soaring bridge over the Cuyahoga Valley National Park at Brecksville, south of Cleveland. The bridge also crosses a scenic railway line and a canal tow path popular with joggers and bikers. The five men, all described as anarchists, were arrested Monday night when they allegedly tried to detonate what turned out to be a dud bomb provided by an FBI undercover informant. Those charged, all jailed since Monday, are Douglas L. Wright, 26, of Indianapolis; Brandon L.
Baxter, 20, of nearby Lakewood; Connor C. Stevens, 20, of suburban Berea; and Joshua S. Stafford, 23, and Anthony Hayne, 35, both of Cleveland. “This indictment in this case alleges that the defendants took specific and defined actions to further a terrorist plot,” Dettelbach said. Stephen D. Anthony, head of the FBI in northern Ohio, said the work by a joint team of law enforcement officers reflected a commitment “to be vigilant in its efforts to detect and disrupt any terrorism threat, domestic or international.”

Man kills 4, himself GILBERT, Ariz. (AP) — Police in the Phoenix suburb of Gilbert say a woman who was shot and killed by her neo-Nazi boyfriend called authorities earlier this year to report that he had choked her. Sgt. Bill Balafas said Thursday that 47-year-old Lisa Lynn Mederos called the department in February to report an incident that had happened in August 2011. Mederos reported that Jason Todd Ready had choked her, but Balafas says there was not enough evidence to make an arrest and no charges were filed. It isn’t clear why Mederos decided to report the incident so long after it happened. Police say Ready shot and killed Mederos and three others Wednesday, including her 16-month old granddaughter, before fatally shooting himself.
13 charged in hazing death TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Now that 13 people have been charged in the hazing death of a Florida A&M University drum major, the future is murky for a famed marching band that has performed at the Grammys, presidential inaugurations and Super Bowls. The band was suspended immediately after Robert Champion’s death in November, and even the governor says it’s far too soon for the Marching 100 to take the field again. Champion’s mother, Pam, took that even a step further: She said the band should be disbanded so the university can “clean house.” She and the family’s attorney contend there is a vast effort among students and others to cover up who is responsible for her son’s death.
9/11 families ready NEW YORK (AP) — It has been a year of milestones for the families of those killed on Sept. 11, with the death of Osama Bin Laden followed by the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks. Now another painful chapter is set to begin: the prosecution of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the self-proclaimed mastermind of 9/11. Victims’ relatives will gather at military bases along the East Coast on Saturday to watch on closed-circuit TV as Mohammed and four co-defendants are arraigned at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where they will eventually

Snake slithers into outage OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Officials say a snake slithered into an Oklahoma City electric substation and knocked out power to about 10,000 customers overnight. Oklahoma Gas and Electric Co. says the power outage affected customers in northwest Oklahoma City at about 2 a.m. Thursday. A spokesman tells Oklahoma City television station KWTV that workers found a snake in the transformer at the Lone Oak substation. OG&E says power was restored to all customers by 3 a.m.

Romney, Mormons brace for a mean political season SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — As 20,000 Mormons streamed from the church conference center, a ragtag group of protesters stood across the street shouting that the Latter-day Saints were going to hell. Mormon families, who had gathered here for two days of speeches and spiritual guidance called General Conference, ignored the hecklers or laughed and kept walking. This, after all, is a church accustomed to much worse. Yet, even with a resilience built over nearly two centuries as outsiders, church members are anxious about what’s ahead. Republican Mitt Romney is about to become the first Mormon nominee for U.S. president on a major party ticket. That will give them a chance like no other to explain their tradition to the public, but the church’s many critics will have a bigger platform, too. And the vetting will take place amid the emotion of what may well be a nasty general election. “People who have opposed Mormonism forever will use this as an opportunity,” said Robert Millet, a religion scholar at Brigham Young University who co-founded a pioneering evangelical-Mormon dialogue. “I don’t know if we’re ready for this kind of deluge.” At the Salt Lake City headquarters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, officials are preparing
to defend the church. It’s an effort that began before Romney officially announced his first, ultimately unsuccessful, 2008 bid for the GOP nomination. Mormon officials met with journalists around the country about the nonpartisanship. church’s Leaders were worried that any statements they made to clarify doctrine would give the impression of aiding Romney. That concern continues this election season. LDS officials have emphasized repeatedly that the church doesn’t communicate with the Romney campaign. In a lengthy statement on their main website, Mormon leaders say the church does not “endorse, promote or oppose political parties, candidates or platforms.” The Latter-day Saints have been running a multimilliondollar series of ads, called “I’m a Mormon,” since 2010, to dispel stereotypes by telling the stories of individual Mormons. To avoid any appearance that the ads were meant to help Romney, the church didn’t buy ad time in Iowa and some other markets with early primaries, said Michael Purdy, an LDS national spokesman. At the General Conference last month, led by the highest authorities of the church, there was no mention of the election across the pulpit. “We’re just going to do what the church does, regardless of the election,” Purdy said.

4 students killed at Aleppo University BEIRUT (AP) — Syrian forces stormed student dormitories during an anti-government protest at Aleppo University Thursday, firing tear gas and bullets in an hours-long siege that killed at least four students and forced the closure of the state-run school, activists said. U.N. truce observers toured other restive parts of the country, and residents told them of being too terrified to walk on the streets after dark as the 14-month-old uprising rages on. The U.N. estimates
9,000 people have been killed since the revolt began, and a peace plan brokered by international envoy Kofi Annan nearly a month ago has done little to stem the bloodshed. It was not clear how long the university would remain closed following the siege, which began late Wednesday when around 1,500 students held a protest against President Bashar Assad’s regime. Pro-regime students attacked the crowd with knives before security forces swept in, firing tear gas and then live ammu-
nition, activists said. “Some students ran to their rooms to take cover, but they were followed to their rooms, beaten up and arrested,” student activist Thaer al-Ahmed said. “Others suffered cuts and broken bones as they tried to flee.” Raids and intermittent gunfire continued for about five hours through early Thursday, he said, adding that dozens of people were wounded, some critically, and 200 students were arrested. The student quarters —
known as the University City — comprise 20 dormitories that house more than 5,000 students next to the university campus. Students there often shout anti-Assad slogans from their rooms at night. It was an unusually violent incident in Aleppo, a major economic hub that has remained largely loyal to Assad and has been spared the kind of daily bloodshed that has plagued other Syrian cities over the course of the uprising.
Tulip festival may turn into stemless festival HOLLAND, Mich. (AP) — The annual Tulip Time festival in West Michigan is looking like it might be more of a “stemfest” this year after unseasonably warm weather encouraged the flowers to bloom earlier than usual. The parks department in Holland, a city known for its Dutch heritage which has hosted the festival for more than 80 years, estimated Monday that about 40 percent of the 500,000 flowers planted will be in bloom next week. But many
ECONOMY The 32 economists polled by the AP late last month are confident the economy has entered a “virtuous cycle” in which more hiring boosts consumer spending, which leads to further hiring and spending. They expect unemployment to drop from 8.2 percent in March to below 8 percent by Election Day. But they still think the rate won’t reach a historically normal level below 6 percent until 2015 or later. And they predict hiring will slow the rest of this year from a relatively brisk December-February pace. The government’s economic data have been sending mixed signals about the health of the recovery from the Great Recession. Here’s a look at the economy’s vital signs: — JOBS The job market is gradually improving, though not as fast as it had been. From December through February, employers added a strong 246,000 jobs a month. That figure sank to a weak 120,000 in March. The
more will be past their prime. Nevertheless, Tulip Time organizers are embracing the otherwise troublesome presence of so many flowerless stems; they’ll start selling $10 “stemfest” shirts and $1 buttons on Friday, the day before the weeklong festival opens. “I hope people have fun with it,” Susan Zalnis, Tulip Time’s marketing manager, told The Holland Sentinel. The black T-shirts depict a wilting
From Page 1 April jobs report could clarify whether March was a onemonth dud — or evidence of a more lasting slowdown in job creation like the one that occurred in mid-2011. The economists in the AP survey foresee average job growth of 177,000 a month from April through June and 189,000 for the next six months. The economy needs to generate about 125,000 jobs a month just to keep up with population growth. On Thursday, the government said the number of people who applied for unemployment benefits last week fell by a sharper-than-expected 27,000 to a seasonally adjusted 365,000. That pointed to fewer layoffs and a brighter outlook for hiring. Further cause for hope came in a government report Thursday on worker productivity: It fell from January through March by the most in a year. Declining productivity could be a positive sign for jobseekers.
white tulip missing its petals. Festival officials first started talking about ordering the merchandise in March, when temperatures were in the 80s. Then the weather cooled off and they were not sure when the blooms would appear. “We thought we might just keep them in the box,” Zalnis said of the merchandise. There are only 300 of the shirts in stock at the Tulip Time offices, Zalnis said, so they could be a hot commodity.
BIN LADEN its allies as mere branches not worth al-Qaida’s time. From his redoubt in Pakistan, bin Laden was keenly aware that his organization’s standing with Muslim populations was crumbling. “I plan to release a statement that we are starting a new phase to correct (the mistakes) we made,” bin Laden wrote in 2010. “In doing so, we shall reclaim, God willing, the trust of a large segment of those who lost their trust in the jihadis.” Such passages offer a glimpse into the terrorist’s mindset. They also fit into the U.S. government’s public relations fight with al-Qaida. The U.S. has repeatedly sought to diminish the group’s standing in the Muslim world. The documents, which date from September 2006 to April 2011, were declassified by U.S. intelligence officials and posted by scholars at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. As part of the declassi-
From Page 1
fication process, intelligence officials would have withheld any documents that they felt could inflame anti-American sentiment — another reason the documents offer a largely sanitized version. The release was the latest beat in a drumroll from the Obama administration. Over several weeks, officials have leaked select documents seized in the raid, Obama has made a surprise visit to Afghanistan and the president and senior officials have made themselves available for an hour-long show about the raid on NBC. Yet the administration has refused requests by The Associated Press to review U.S. government records — including helicopter maintenance logs and reports about the performance of military gear used in the raid — that could provide insights into how bin Laden died, how the U.S. verified his identity and how it decided to bury him at sea.

Jacob and Emma’s good horse, Big Rose, died over the weekend, which was a real loss for them. She was a big, strong horse and very traffic safe. Emma and Jacob already had a horse named Rose when they bought Big Rose at auction several years ago. They asked the person selling the horse what its name was and he said “Rose.” So they renamed their existing horse Little Rose and the new one Big Rose. But they’d both come when calling for Rose.

If none of these suggestions help you feel calmer, or if your anxiety is new or growing more intense, it’s time to discuss your emotions with your physician. DR. WALLACE: I’m 15 and very concerned that I maintain a clear complexion. Thank goodness, I’ve never had any problems with pimples or acne, but occasionally, I get a couple of blackheads. I think this is totally gross. I wash my face at least three times
daily with a mild soap and warm water but still blackheads show up. Is it possible I should use a stronger type of soap? I purchased a blackhead remover at a drug store and it works, but still, I hate to have a speck of dirt digging into my face. Is there any way I can get rid of dirt specks so they won’t become blackheads? — Nameless, Ames, Iowa NAMELESS: The black color in a blackhead is not caused by dirt. During the teens, excess oil is produced and when it clogs a pore near the surface of the skin, exposure to the air turns it black. This is the same chemical reaction that turns a half-eaten apple brown when exposed to the air for a period of time. Continue using a mild soap and warm water, and make sure that your blackhead remover is not causing skin damage. A visit to a dermatologist might be wise.

Art show highlights students’ talent BY TERRY PELLMAN JACKSON CENTER — Visitors to the Jackson Center School on Tuesday were treated to some talent in addition to the musical program. On display in the hallway leading to the gymnasium were numerous tables and easels holding works of art done by students. The projects were as varied as the imaginations of the students. The hallway was adorned with watercolors, pencil works and acrylic paintings. There were sculptures, mixed media works and works made from wax. Ornate ceramic boxes are adorned with sculpted metal. Layers of cardboard are separated to make use of the interior textures. Images are formed by use of dots clustered in patterns. Young minds have been set free in Jackson Center’s art classes. Among the many imaginative pieces were those called “leaning houses.” The ceramic buildings consisted of walls attached in a manner that allowed the “houses” to slant to varying extremes, giving them the appearance of a cartoon image. Two of the art students are junior class members Madison Reese, 17, daughter of Quentin and Lisa Reese, and Rhyanna Wagner, 18, daughter of Kelly and Angie Wagner. Both had a number of entries in the display, and are very enthusiastic about the various art mediums they have been able to sample as students in the classes of Sandra Corbett. Corbett teaches all the art classes, beginning with students in the fourth grade. All art students had a work in the display. Inspirations for the works of art come from many sources. Sometimes Corbett will assign a theme to a student, such as taking a picture and creating a work giving a personal flair to the image. Another involved doing a self-portrait. A style that provides for some of the more striking images is to do a painting of a real person or scene but using colors that are not true to the subject. A face may be orange, or a set of hallway lockers yellow, but

RHYANNA WAGNER (left) and Madison Reese explain their art techniques at Jackson Center School. in all such cases, the images are interesting. However, it is the creativity of the individual mind that provides the best ideas. Wagner notes that one reason she so loves art is the freedom of expression it provides. Still-lifes may portray a group of similar objects contrasted by one that has no apparent relationship to the rest. One example is Wagner’s painting of several frogs in random spaces, offset by one on a Ducati motorcycle. Another student portrayed bowling pins and a cobra snake. Students learn how to use varying textures on a work. Some must be prepared as separate small pieces and adhered to the canvas or object. Such was the case for several glass pieces receiving a faux stainedglass effect. The students learn techniques from Corbett, as well as from textbooks and art magazines. There is also a healthy dose of experimentation and trial and error. Corbett also stresses the need
for research. Reese explains that oil painting presents particular challenges. The colors require special blending and are slow to dry. Oil works also require special care during the drying period. Both Reese and Wagner stated that it was not unusual to begin an art project, then decide a couple of days later to put it aside and try something different, Likewise, both would sometimes find it fruitful to return to an abandoned work and see it from a different perspective. Reese also provided an example of how a painting was trans-
formed after Corbett suggested adding some detail. Both Reese and Wagner see art as part of their educational futures, although they will take different paths. Reese plans to attend an art school after graduation, with hopes of becoming a graphic artist. Such a vocation would involve designing anything from packaging to logos for various institutions. Wagner intends to stay with the family tradition of military service, and hopes to enlist in the Army on her way to college to study music. Art would be a minor for her.

DONOHUE: When you comment on cholesterol treatments, please mention gemfibrozil. It’s cheap, effective and has not caused any side effects for me. — V.S. ANSWER: Gemfibrozil is the generic name for Lopid. It is useful for lowering triglycerides and cholesterol. Triglycerides are fats in the blood that work with cholesterol in clogging blood flow through arteries. This medicine increases good cholesterol (HDL cholesterol) and lowers bad cholesterol (LDL cholesterol). Gemfibrozil can cause
muscle pain. I’m glad it’s been such a success for you. Cholesterol is a topic on everyone’s mind. The booklet on it describes what it does and how it’s lowered.

board members have been made aware that you are qualified and would like to be a speaker, it’s time to step back. Make other plans for when the festival is held. It’s possible your absence may make their hearts grow fonder. However, if it doesn’t, at least you won’t be sitting at home and brooding. (Sorry, I couldn’t resist.) DEAR ABBY: When my husband and I have a private argument, he shares our problems with our 11-year-old daughter when I am not around. Later, she will tell me she sides with him about our argument. I feel my husband should not involve our
daughter in our disagreements. It makes me feel betrayed. How should I deal with this issue? — VIOLATED IN NEW JERSEY DEAR VIOLATED: You married a man who appears to be manipulative and not above using your daughter to “get to you.” I agree he shouldn’t discuss your disagreements with her — not because it’s a betrayal, but because it’s unfair that she is being put in the middle. Because there are problems the two of you can’t resolve, they should be talked out with a licensed marriage counselor, not a child. If your husband refuses to go, you definitely should go without him.
May 4, 1937 Mrs. Harry Elsner was elected president of Alpha Gamma chapter of Delta Theta Tau sorority when the annual election was held last evening as part of the business meeting at the home of Mary Ida Doorley. Other officers are Miss Vera Ginn, vice president; Miss Wilma Currey, recording secretary; Miss Esther Ehrhardt, corresponding secretary; Miss Dorothy Duncan, treasurer; Mrs. Chalmer Stocker, sergeant at arms; Miss Dorothy Morrison, historian. ——— Taylor Faulder has moved his Studebaker sales room from his former location on North Main avenue to North street, next to the telephone office, where he remodeled the show room and building to meet his particular needs. A formal opening of the new room will be held in the next two weeks. ——— Boy Scout Troop No. 94, sponsored by the St. Remy’s church at Russia, received its charter yesterday afternoon at a special presentation ceremony held at the school. Robert D. Dalrymple, field scout executive, pre-
sented the charter to Father Frank Raterman, pastor of the parish. Leadership commissions were presented to Louis H. Francis, and Cyril F. Paulus, assistant scoutmaster.
50 Years May 4, 1962 E. R. Hetzler, district manager for the Ohio Telephone Service Co., said today that employees of the Ohio company have won two awards for safety during the year 1961. Of the 103 independent telephone companies in the state, the local company was named a group winner for working over 400,000 man-hours of covered employment without a loss-time accident. –––– The Shelby County Amateur Radio Club will meet Monday night in the Civil Defense headquarters on East Court street. Two movies, “Exploring by Satellite” and “Waterways Holidays,” will be shown. ––––– Sidney Federated Woman’s Club brought three honors home awarded during the annual state convention held in Cleveland over the weekend. An honorable mention was given the club for its work of the blind, the second award for the club’s yearbook in which it took second place in the district, and a citation for CARE was the third honor the club received.
25 Years May 4, 1987 WASHINGTON (AP) — States may force Rotary Clubs to admit women, the Supreme Court ruled today. The justices, in a 7-0 ruling, upheld a California law that bars Rotary International from ousting local chapters that have women members. Justice Lewis F. Powell, in his opinion for the court, said the California law does not interfere with the constitutional rights of Rotarians to associate with whom they please. Powell compared the clubs to public accommodations in rejecting arguments that Rotarians have a First Amendment right to bar women. ——— WASHINGTON (AP) — Gary Hart says a Miami Herald story claiming he spent Friday night with a young woman isn’t true. His campaign manager calls the story character assassination, based on “hiding in bushes, peeking in windows and personal harassment.”

Lady Rockets upset Russia in County play ANNA — Anna came close the last time it played Russia, losing 2-1, but this time the Lady Rockets pulled off the upset, beating the Lady Raiders 3-1 Thursday behind the pitching of Kylie Keener Keener. The win puts Anna at 7-11 and leaves Russia at 13-9. The loss was particularly damaging to Russia’s County hopes. It was the Lady Raiders’ second loss of the season in league play and dropped them a game behind Fort Loramie. Keener limited the Lady Raiders to just four hits while striking out a season-high 13 to outduel Russia ace Katelyn Herron, who fanned 10 on a five-hitter. “She had everything working tonight,” said Anna coach Tim McMahon. “She doesn’t usually strike out a lot of hitters, but Russia couldn’t figure her out.” Despite Anna’s overall record, the Lady Rockets have now beaten Russia, which is second in the County, and league leading Fort Loramie

CINCINNATI REDS’ Scott Rolen, left, is congratulated by manager Dusty Baker, right, after Rolen hit a game winning sacrifice fly off Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Rafael Dolis during the 10th inning of a baseball game Thursday in Cincinnati. The Reds won 4-3.
Reds win in 10th, 4-3 CINCINNATI (AP) — Carlos Marmol got a little wild again, losing a three-run lead in the ninth. He might have lost his closer job as well. The Cincinnati Reds scored three runs in the ninth off Marmol to tie it, and Scott Rolen hit a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning for a 4-3 victory and a split of their two-game series. The Reds needed a lot of help to pull it out, and got it from a reliever having trouble throwing strikes. Marmol walked three of the five batters he faced, one with the bases loaded. “You have a game like that — I’m embarrassed right now,” Marmol said. Marmol has blown three of his five save chances, walking 12 in 8 2-3 innings. Manager Dale Sveum said after the game that he’ll consider moving him out of the closer’s role. “You’ve got to throw strikes, and you have to throw strikes with your fastball,” Sveum said. “Throwing 3-0 sliders with a 3-0 lead is unacceptable. A two-run home run won’t cost you the game. If you’re closing games, you have to throw strikes. We’ve talked about this. “I can’t lie to you. I’ve
thought about changing roles. I’ve thought of it now.” Sveum said he would probably use left-hander James Russell or righty Rafael Dolis in the ninth if he made a change. “My options are Russell, Dolis.,” Sveum said. “That’s about it. If you have to go with a change, you use matchups. It depends on what is happening in that ninth inning.” Marmol had 34 saves in 44 chances last season. He said he’d like to remain the closer, but would accept a role change. “He’s going to decide what to do,” Marmol said. “I agree with that.” Marmol spoiled a big moment for Ryan Dempster, who returned from the disabled list and pitched eight shutout innings on his 35th birthday. He allowed only three hits and was in line to get his first win since Aug. 11. Dempster got the better of Homer Bailey, who turned 26th on Thursday. It was the first time in major league history that both starters were celebrating a birthday, according to information provided by the Reds, citing the Elias Sports Bureau. Both pitchers signed base-
balls for the Hall of Fame. “That’s something neat,” Dempster said. The Reds stood at the plate and watched Marmol self-destruct in the ninth. He walked Willie Harris and Joey Votto on nine pitches to open the inning. An error by Ian Stewart — the third baseman rushed trying to turn a double play — let in a run. Jay Bruce singled to load the bases, and Marmol walked Ryan Ludwick to force in a run that made it 3-2 and ended the closer’s outing. Dolis (1-2) relieved and got a double play that left it tied at 3. Marmol threw 18 pitches, only six of them strikes. “Sometimes he’s throwing strikes, and then he’s practically unhittable,” Reds manager Dusty Baker said. “The key is to swing at strikes and make him throw balls. We don’t have a whole lot of guys who hit him well.” Another error helped the Reds win it. Zack Cozart singled in the 10th off Dolis, who then threw wildly to first base on Chris Heisey’s sacrifice attempt. Rolen followed with his sacrifice fly to deep right field. Logan Ondrusek (2-0) pitched the 10th.
FORT LORAMIE — Fort Loramie went to 8-1 in the County and 15-7 overall with a 10-0 blanking of Houston in five innings Thursday here. The Redskins led just 31-0 after Houston batted in the fourth, but got three in the forth and six in the fifth to end it on the run rule. Joel Bollheimer was 3-for-3 for the Redskins and Josh Hilgefort 2-for-2. Two Loramie pitchers allowed Houston just one hit.

Riverside edges Triad 2-1 DEGRAFF — Riverside pulled out a hard-fought 2-1 victory over a good Triad squad in action here Thursday, the runs coming in the bottom of the seventh. The win puts the Pirates at 16-7 on the season. Dallas Daniels turned in a strong effort on the mound, pitching a complete game three-hitter. Triad scored a run in the fourth inning and it stayed at 1-0 until the bottom of the seventh. Jake Herron plated the tying run with a suicide squeeze bunt, and Dalton Bollinger drove in Kyle Hurley with the winning run. Bollinger had three hits, including a double, and Hurley had a double.

The Tigers outhit the Trojans 12-6, with Steve Dearwester leading the way with three hits in as many trips. He also stole three bases and scored twice. Andy Hoying was 2-for-3 and Troy Opperman drove in two runs for the Tigers. Zach Greve was 2-for-3 for Botkins. Joey Frye fanned six in pitching a complete game for the Tigers.

Lee Kindell, Zach Niekamp and Damian Richard all had two hits apiece for Versailles, with one of Richard’s being a double.

Luebke on disabled list SAN DIEGO (AP) — The San Diego Padres have placed left-hander Cory Luebke on the 15day disabled list because of a strained left elbow. Luebke, a Marion Local High School graduate who is 3-1 with a 2.61 ERA, said he began to feel soreness in his elbow during his last start, a 5-3 win Friday at San Francisco. To replace him as San Diego's starter on Wednesday night
against Milwaukee, the Padres purchased the contract of right-hander Jeff Suppan from TripleA Tucson. To make room for Suppan on the 40man roster, San Diego moved infielder/outfielder Kyle Blanks, who has a strained left shoulder, from the 15-day DL to the 60-day. Suppan, signed by the Padres to a minor-league contract in the offseason, has played in parts of 17 major league seasons.

A full field of 20 horses will line up for the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on Saturday. The winner becomes the only 3-year-old with a chance to go on and try for the Triple Crown by adding victories in the Preakness on May 19 and the Belmont Stakes three weeks later. The last horse to sweep all three races was Affirmed in 1978. Here’s a look at five 3year-olds to watch when the starting gate springs open for the most exciting two minutes in sports: • Bodemeister: The 4-1 morning-line favorite is trained by three-time Derby winner Bob Baffert. While the trainer is recovering from a heart attack, his bay colt comes into the Derby off an eyeopening, wire-to-wire 91/2-length romp in the Arkansas Derby. Expect the bay colt to be on or close to the lead from the get-go under jockey Mike Smith. Bodemeister will break from the No. 6 gate. The Hall of Fame rider won the 2005 Derby aboard 50-1 shot Giacomo. The colt is named for Baffert’s 7-year-old
is impossible to miss — he’s almost white, and he’s almost sure to be in the lead along with sprinter Trinniberg. The colt who carries the family name of owner Kendall Hansen breaks from a favorable No. 14 post, where the nation’s leading jockey, Ramon Dominguez, can gauge the front-runners and try to keep the speedster fresh for the stretch run. Hansen could be a handful — he won his first two races by a combined 251/2 lengths, beat Union Rags in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, won the Gotham Stakes and ran second in the Blue Grass in his last race. • Take Charge Indy: With Calvin (Borail) Borel in the saddle, Take Charge Indy cannot be counted out. Plus, the wire-to-wire Florida Derby winner drew the No. 3 post, a wonderful place for Borel to begin one of his patented railrunning rides to the winner’s circle. By the way, Borel has won the Derby three of the past five years. On pedigree alone, this colt merits attention: He’s a son of A.P. Indy, with bloodlines going through Triple Crown winners Secretariat and Seattle Slew.
