Council reaffirms support of retreat goals BY TOM BARNETT tbarnett@sdnccg.com Sidney City Council Monday night revisited goals set during its February retreat, making no priority changes in its top 10 initiatives. Leading council’s midyear evaluation were Mayor Mike Barhorst and City Manager Mark Cundiff. Increased jobs and revenue remained top priority, although as Barhorst lamented, “There’s not a whole lot we can do yet.” Maintenance of streets, alleys and bridges within the corporate limits retained its No. 2 ranking, although council
COUNTY
members reported increasing concerns by constituents over street conditions. Council members also remained committed to an alternate water source (No. 3) and “working hard on it.” Code enforcement retains its No. 4 priority despite a shortfall in staffing, and neighborhood revitalization kept its fifth-place rank as staff continues to pursue grant funds to augment local funding. Council agreed to support improved collaboration with Shelby County, its No. 6 goal, and downtown revitalization (No. 7), which all agreed is

complicated by the costly repairs needed by the vacant Ohio building. Nos. 9 and 10 of the list, enhanced delivery of city services and support of EPA mandated Wastewater Treatment Plant improvements, were also affirmed; although concern was expressed over how long services can be maintained with reduced staffing. In a PowerPoint presentation during Monday night’s retreat session, Finance Officer Ginger Adams said year-to-date city income tax collections are below 2011, but still in line with budget projections. Adams told council
CITY
members year-to-date income tax collections May total through $5,882,631, $158,392 or 2.6 percent less than 2011. The city’s budgeted total for 2012 is $12,141,473. She said previous budget cuts must remain in place, but no additional budget reductions are warranted. Major financial challenges include significant capital amounts needed for sewers to meet EPA compliance. Acquiring those amounts will require large increases in rates and fees, and the development of a new water source. Adams said municipal
operations continue to be strained as staffing reductions remain in place with minimal wage increases, unless increases have been dictated by public safety unions. “And,” she said, “continually extending the life of capital improvements has resulted in deteriorating streets and bridges, as well as equipment that is more expensive to maintain.” The finance director also said staff is waiting to analyze what state legislation will be proposed to mandate municipal income tax uniformity and how Sidney’s tax collections will be affected. Assistant City Man-
ager Tom Judy presented a proposed new economic development tool, municipal income tax credit incentives piggybacked on the state’s job creation tax credit. He said the credit could be offered only if sufficient other incentives are not available for a business or industry to meet the state’s matching requirements for state tax credit. The proposed credit would be based on a minimum of 50 new jobs and $1.25 million annual payroll by the third year, as well as fixed asset investment, water and sewer consumption and new construction.

DEMETRIUS THOMPSON (left) opens a card from a well-wisher with the help of his wife, Gwen, while surrounded by family members Monday in his room in the intense care unit at St. Rita’s Medical Center in Lima. Thompson, who got trapped under a car when it plowed into a crowded street festival Friday night, said the bystanders who lifted the vehicle off him might have saved his right leg from being amputated. Thompson said doctors reconstructed his leg, which was badly broken. His foot also was mangled in the accident.
Police: Car that hit crowd had been parked LIMA (AP) — A man who got trapped under a car when it plowed into a crowded street festival said the bystanders who lifted the vehicle off him might have saved his right leg from being amputated. Demetrius Thompson is one of two people who remained hospitalized this week after police said a 63-year-old woman drove into the crowd Friday night, injuring more than two dozen. “I just want everyone to know I’m OK,” he told The Lima News (http://bit.ly/LbGf4d ). He said the people who lifted the car off him were heroes.

Thompson said doctors reconstructed his leg, which was badly broken. His foot also was mangled in the accident. Investigators were still looking into what caused the accident and have not filed charges. More than 1,000 people had gathered for a community weekly event featuring live music when witnesses say the woman plowed her car through a group of people trying to get their last round of beer for the night at the downtown festival, about 80 miles south of Toledo. It appears the car had been stopped in a diagonal parking space before
it accelerated, said police Sgt. Nick Hart. Police have said it appears the woman, whose name has not been released, unintentionally drove into the crowd. The car went about 50 feet at about 20 mph before striking an old sculpture in the town square, witnesses and police said. Hospitals said 27 people were treated that night. About 30 witnesses have come forward. The investigation is expected to take several weeks. ——— Information from: The Lima News, http://www.limanews.c om

A request to change the zoning code on where tanning salons could be located in the city of Sidney brought forth “no” votes from two members of the Sidney Planning Commission. Barbara Dulworth, community services director, told the planning commission Monday night that the city’s staff recommending was changes in the B-2, community business district, and B-5, courtsquare business district. She recommended the tanning salons be added to the B-2 district and removed from the B-5 district. A subsection of the B-5 district would allow tanning salons as a conditionally permitted use. “Tanning salons may be appropriate in the B5 district in certain locations,” said Dulworth. “Staff’s primary concern is that clients are frequently in and out of the tanning salon in as little as 6 to 8 minutes, and a facility with a large number of booths could create a parking/traffic issue if adequate onstreet and off-street parking is not available nearby.” “If they are in and out in 6 minutes,” said Merrill Asher, a planning commission member, “then they would have more time in the other businesses downtown.” It was also brought up that most of the business at the post office is in and out. Dulworth said there are concerns with the parking situation at that location also. Dulworth said there are no tanning salons downtown and she hasn’t received any applications for such facilities. The phase “reducing salon” in the B-2 district would also be changed to “weight loss center.” After listening to the request, Asher and Dan Shaffer voted “no” on the request. Tom Ehler, Dave Gross and Patricia Miller all voted “yes,” so it was approved 3-2. The recommendation will now go to Sidney City Council. The commission approved a rezoning request from Lisa O’Conner, on behalf of Jay Higgins, dealing with property on the east side of Fourth Avenue. The request was to change the zoning from R-1, single family residence district, to B-2, community business district. The land in question surrounds the old AMVETS building. The new building/land will be used for a bakery/catering business and hall rental for private parties. Dulworth told the commission that the neighbors supported the change of zoning. The request for the change in zoning was approved and the recommendation will be given to city council. Election of officers was held with Ehler being re-elected as chair and Gross re-elected as vice chair. Both men abstained from the vote.

Mubarak on life support CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak was on life support after suffering a stroke in prison Tuesday, deepening the country’s uncertainty just as a potentially explosive fight opened over who will succeed him. The 84-year-old Mubarak suffered a “fast deterioration of his health” and his heart stopped beating, the state news agency MENA and security officials said. He was revived by defibrillation but then had a stroke and was moved from Torah Prison to a military hospital in Cairo. MENA initially reported he was “clinically dead” upon arrival, but a security official said he was put on life support.

Millions still go without insurance if law passes BY TOM MURPHY Associated Press One of the biggest misconceptions about President Obama’s health care overhaul isn’t who the law will cover, but rather who it won’t. If it survives Supreme court scrutiny, the landmark overhaul will expand coverage to about 30 million uninsured people, according to government figures. But an estimated 26 million U.S. residents will remain without coverage — a population that’s roughly the size of Texas and includes illegal im-
migrants and those who can’t afford to pay out-of-pocket for health insurance. “Many people think that this health care law is going to cover everyone, and it’s not,” says Nicole Lamoureux, executive director of the Alexandria, Va.-based National Association of Free & Charitable Clinics, which represents about 1,200 clinics nationally. To be sure, it’s estimated that the Affordable Care Act would greatly increase the number of insured Americans. The law has a provision that requires most Americans to be
911 call released LOS ANGELES (AP) — Rodney King’s fiancee said in a frantic 911 call that she threw a shovel to try to rouse him after she woke to the sounds of a fall and found him at the bottom of his swimming pool. Cynthia Kelley repeatedly implored authorities to hurry to King’s Rialto, Calif., home early Sunday. In audio authorities released Tuesday, Kelley tells a dispatcher that she tried to rouse King but he wasn’t responding. “He’s not moving,” Kelley said, crying throughout the call. “I was sleeping, all of a sudden I heard something fall like the table and then I looked over and then I went to find him and he’s at the bottom of the swimming pool. He’s still there. Please hurry up.” The 5-minute, 15-second phone call ends with the arrival of police officers who pulled King from the pool and began life-saving efforts.
OUT OF THE BLUE
Baby robin cuddles with cats OTSEGO TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — A baby robin is spending some quality time with some friendly cats in southwestern Michigan. MLive.com reports Karin Caston's cats have accepted the bird, named Peeps, since she found it about two weeks ago in her yard in Allegan County’s Otsego Township, 35 miles south of Grand Rapids. The bird lives in a cage, but spends time nestled in the fur of two of Caston's cats or perched on their backs. A third cat lets the bird walk around it. She tells The Associated Press in an email that she first locked up the cats when she started caring for the bird.
insured or face a tax penalty. It also calls for an expansion of Medicaid, a governmentfunded program that covers the health care costs of low-income and disabled Americans. Additionally, starting in 2014, there will be tax credits to help middle-class Americans buy coverage. The Supreme Court is expected to hand down a decision this month on whether to uphold the law completely or strike down parts or all of it. If it survives, about 93 percent of all non-elderly, legal U.S. residents will be covered by 2016. That’s up from 82 per-
cent this year. Still, millions of illegal immigrants won’t qualify for coverage. This population will account for roughly 26 percent of those who will remain uninsured, according to Urban Institute, a nonpartisan think tank. And many legal U.S. residents will go without insurance, too. About 36 percent of the population that remains uninsured will qualify for Medicaid but won’t sign up for various reasons. Others likely will make too much money to qualify for assistance but be unable to afford coverage.
More turmoil in Pakistan
Obama confident LOS CABOS, Mexico (AP) — President Barack Obama voiced confidence Tuesday in Europe’s ability to “break the fever” of its raging debt crisis as he sought to calm both global financial markets and the election-year worries of voters at home. Obama, speaking at the close of the Group of 20 economic summit, said Europe’s leaders showed a “heightened sense of urgency” during two days of talks in this Mexican resort. The president maintained that Europe had the capacity to solve the crisis on its own, indicating the U.S., still battling its own economic woes, would not be offering any financial pledges to help its international partners.

THIS SEPTEMBER 2011 file photo provided by Vanguard Defense Industries, shows a ShadowHawk drone with Montgomery County, Texas SWAT team members. The prospect that thousands of drones could be patrolling U.S. skies by the end of this decade is raising the specter of a Big Brother government that peers into backyards and bedrooms.
Drones at home raise fears WASHINGTON (AP) — Thousands of drones patrolling U.S. skies? Predictions that multitudes of unmanned aircraft could be flying here within a decade are raising the specter of a “surveillance society” in which no home or backyard would be off limits to prying eyes overhead. Law enforcement, oil companies, farmers, real estate agents and many others have seen the technology that was pioneered on battlefields, and they are eager to put it to use. It’s not just talk: The government is in the early stages of devising rules for the unmanned aircraft. So far, civilian use of drones is fairly limited. The Federal Aviation Administration had issued fewer than 300 permits for drones by the end of last year. Public worries about drones
began mostly on the political margins, but there are signs that they’re going mainstream. Jeff Landry, a freshman Republican congressman from Louisiana’s coastal bayou country, says constituents have stopped him while shopping at Walmart to talk about their concerns. “There is a distrust amongst the people who have come and discussed this issue with me about our government,” Landry said. “It’s raising an alarm with the American public.” Fear that some drones may be armed, for example, has been fueled in part by a county sheriff’s office in Texas that used a homeland security grant to buy a $300,000, 50-pound ShadowHawk helicopter drone for its SWAT team. The drone can be equipped with a 40mm grenade launcher and a 12gauge shotgun.
ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan’s top court dismissed the prime minister from office on Tuesday for failing to investigate the president for corruption, ushering in a new round of political turmoil in a nation vital to American hopes of withdrawing from neighboring Afghanistan. The Supreme Court ruling against Yousuf Raza Gilani was unlikely to topple the fragile, coalition government. But it left it weakened and without a Cabinet. Most analysts expected the government to heed the court order and begin the process of replacing Gilani, or possibly expedite general elections that must be held before early next year. The move was likened by some to a ” judicial coup” in a country with a history of destabilizing conflicts between the courts, the army
and elected governments. It comes as Pakistan faces near economic collapse, power shortages and its own struggle against Islamist militants behind attacks that have killed thousands of people over the last five years. The prime minister has refused to step down since he was convicted of contempt of court in April for not asking authorities in Switzerland to reopen a 1990s graft case against his boss, President Asif Ali Zardari. Zardari’s Pakistan People’s Party should have enough support in parliament to elect a replacement for Gilani, but at the likely cost of concessions to its coalition partners. As a coalition meeting broke up late Tuesday, some media reports said Makhdoom Shahabuddin, the textile minister, was emerging as a consensus candidate.
Epic clash nearing in Congress WASHINGTON (AP) — A budget showdown for the ages could begin after this year’s election and stretch well into 2013 — despite the threat that an impending half-trillion-dollar avalanche of tax increases and spending cuts might rekindle a national recession. The reason: an unprecedented collision of high-stakes fiscal decisions, coming at a time of intense partisanship, a teetering economy, record federal deficits and, possibly, a new president. Campaigning for the White House and Congress will make substantive action all but impossible before the elections. And agreement may be nearly as tough during a post-election, lame duck session in November and December, barring a European financial meltdown or Middle East oil supply crisis that demands an immediate response by lawmakers. “I don’t know how a Congress that can’t agree on anything in two years is all of a sudden going to come together with the administration in the last 45 days of the year to solve the problem,” said Rep. Steven LaTourette, R-Ohio. No one can confidently predict the outcome of the battle over what many are calling the “fiscal cliff.” Much depends on whether President Barack Obama defeats Republican challenger Mitt Romney in November and which party controls
Texas dad won’t face charges in alleged attacker’s death SHINER, Texas (AP) — Hearing his 5-year-old daughter crying from behind a barn, a father ran and discovered the unthinkable: A man molesting her. The father pulled the man off his daughter, authorities say, and started pummeling him to death with his fists. With his daughter finally safe, the father frantically called 911, begging a dispatcher to find his rural ranch and send an ambulance. “Come on! This guy is going to die on me!” the man is heard screaming on the recording, which authorities played during a news conference Tuesday where they announced that the father would not face charges. “I don’t know what to do!” In declining to indict the 23-year-old father in the June
9 killing of Jesus Mora Flores, a Lavaca County grand jury reached the same conclusion as investigators and many of the father’s neighbors: He was authorized to use deadly force to protect his daughter. “It’s sad a man had to die,” said Michael James Veit, 48, who lives across the street from where the attack happened in this small community run on ranching and the Shiner beer brewery. “But I think anybody would have done that.” The family ranch is so remote that on the 911 tape, the father is heard profanely screaming at a dispatcher who couldn’t locate the property. At one point, he tells the dispatcher he’s going to put the man in his truck and drive him to a hospital. “He’s going to die!” the fa-
ther screams, swearing at the dispatcher. “He’s going to f— —— die!” The tense, nearly fiveminute call begins with the father saying he “beat up” a man found raping his daughter. The father grows increasingly frazzled, shouting into the phone so loudly at times that the call often becomes inaudible. The Associated Press is not identifying the father in order to protect the daughter’s identity. The AP generally does not identify victims of sexual assault. “He’s a peaceable soul,” V’Anne Huser, the father’s attorney, told reporters at the Lavaca County Courthouse. “He had no intention to kill anybody that day.” The attack happened on the family’s ranch off a quiet,
two-lane county road between the farming towns of Shiner and Yoakum. Authorities say a witness who saw Flores “forcibly carrying” the girl into a secluded area scrambled to find the father. Running toward his daughter’s screams, the father pulled Flores off his child and “inflicted several blows to the man’s head and neck area,” investigators said. Emergency crews responding to the father’s 911 call found Flores’ pants and underwear pulled down on his lifeless body. The girl was examined at a hospital, and authorities say forensic evidence and witness accounts corroborated the father’s story that his daughter was being sexually molested. The father was never arrested, but the killing was investigated as a homicide.

Gateway Arts Council announces season Gateway Arts Council has announced its 25th anniversary season. During 2012-13, the arts council will celebrate the past, recognize its founders and present performances. “We are pulling out all the stops to celebrate our 25th Anniversary and while plans are still being made for many of commemorative the events, we are thrilled to be able to announce the 2012-2013 season,” said Executive Director Ellen Keyes. The Presents! season opens with “Fiddler on the Roof,” Nov. 4 at 7 p.m. Based on the stories of Sholom Aleichem, the musical has captured the hearts of people all over the world with its humor, warmth and honesty. In the little village of Anatevka, Tevye, a

And when Tevye’s daughters want to make their own matches, he must choose between his own daughter’s happiness and those beloved traditions that keep the outside world at bay. “Fiddler on the Roof ” is filled with a rousing, heartwarming score, including “Tradition,” “Matchmaker, Matchmaker,” “If I Were A Rich Man” and “Sunrise, Sunset.” “Ted Vigil - A Tribute to John Denver” will be Feb. 10, at 7 p.m. The legendary John Denver evokes memories of an era in music which was both inspiring and influential. His music was a combination of romance, as in “Annie’s Song,” folk, as in “Leavin’ on a Jet Plane,” country, as in “Thank God, I’m a Country Boy,” and environmentalist, as in “Calypso.” He recorded nearly 300 songs, 200 of which he composed, which led to 12 gold and four platinum albums; he was also awarded an Emmy and two Grammys. Ted Vigil, a man who, according to long-time Denver accompanist Steve Weisberg, closely resembles Denver both physically and musically,

TED VIGIL’s Tribute to John Denver is scheduled for Feb. 10. is carrying on the tradition. Vigil is not an impersonator, but rather sings a tribute to Denver. His gift for the music and polished and energetic performing style presents a warm and delightful evening through some of the world’s most popular music. Vigil had been writing, recording and performing his original compositions, leading to winning the national title for Talent Quest in Laughlin, Nev., in 2006. After this win, Vigil began to plan a John Denver Tribute show. He began singing his way all over the U.S. and in 2007, shared the stage with Keith Anderson, Jeff Bates and Kevin Sharp on the annual Traveling Kountry Kruz with the Royal Caribbean Cruise Line. The final presentation will be “Simply Sinatra” April 14, at 7 p.m. Before The Beatles, before Elvis, before rock ‘n’ roll, there was Frank. Gateway Arts Council salutes The Chairman of the Board with a one-ofa-kind concert featuring Frank Sinatra’s modern interpreter, Steve Lippia, and his band.
The concert will feature “Lady is a Tramp,” “Summer Wind” and “I’ve Got the World on a String” with Lippia as he portrays the leader of the infamous Rat Pack. “Simply Sinatra” showcases a musical arrangement by Sinatra’s own arranger and Lippia croons like “Ol’ Blue Eyes” himself. Lippia has headlined in extended engagements at the Rio SuitesHotel and Casino in Las Vegas and Resorts Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, where audiences lined up more than two hours before show time to vie for seating. He has performed in multiple engagements for Hilton Atlantic City and Casino Windsor, among others. Lippia has recently performed to sold-out audiences with many major symphonies across North America, including the Boulder Philharmonic, Calgary Symphony, Cleveland Pops, Colorado Symphony, Fort Worth Symphony, Palm Beach Pops and The Philly Pops. His TV appearances include “Extra,” Fox’s “Good Day New York,” CNN’s “Showbiz Today,” ABC and the BBC. All performances will be in the Sidney High School auditorium. Season tickets are $50. Prices for tickets to individual shows are as follows: “Fiddler on the Roof,” $23; “Ted Vigil - A Tribute to John Denver,” $19; “Simply Sinatra,” $19.

Dickman employee gets Francis joins Peerless leadership recognition The Electrical Distributor (tED) Magazine’s first-ever “ 3 0 Under 35” list has been released. According to the magazine, “This list recogPalser nizes 30 talented young professionals from around the country who have the initiative, drive, integrity and creativity to move the industry forward in the decades to come.” It is a representation of “today’s top emerging leaders” in the electrical industry, both on the manufacturing and wholesale distribution side.
Dickman Supply learned that its own Brent Palser, the assistant manager of the Greenville store, was named to the list as one of the top 30 “Rising Stars” in the business. Palser began working for Dickman Supply at age 17 as a co-op in Greenville High School’s FFA program, continued with Dickman full time as he pursued his degree in finance at Wright State University, and currently is pursuing his Master of Business Administration at the University of Dayton. Over the past 10 years, according to Dickman officials, he has made an impact with his activities in working with customers and representatives from every corner of the elec-
trical industry, serving on the industry’s Leadership Enhancement and Development (LEAD) Committee, and appearing in several educational videos for the National Association of Electrical Distributors’ “Power Up Your Career” campaign. chairCommittee woman and tED Magazine editor Misty Byers said Palser was chosen “over hundreds of applicants from all over the country … each one impressive in their own right.” Tim Geise, president of Dickman Supply, said, “For Brent to be chosen to the first-ever list of the top young people in our entire industry is a huge accomplishment for him. We’re so excited that
Brent is a part of the Dickman team.” tED Magazine is a publication of the National Association of Electrical Distributors. It is recognized as the industry’s source of current events, market forecasting, and the latest methods and technologies for the electrical industry. Its July issue will feature all of the “30 under 35” winners, including Palser, in a special section. Dickman Supply is a locally owned and operated electrical and industrial supplier, serving contractors and commercial and industrial companies in west-central Ohio and eastern Indiana from their locations in Greenville, Sidney and Celina.

She will handle direct sales and work with the company’s Latin American agents on all product lines including Peerless, Peters, Fedco and SuperGrain.

ness owner needs experience because they will initially play every role, with little room for learning on the job. It is difficult to imagine a mechanic switching professions and operating a successful restaurant. A potential lender will want to be assured that the owner or an in-house expert knows how to run the business. • A plan. A solid business plan is a must.

for developing a business plan. • Money. Because most businesses will not make a profit initially, start-ups must be well capitalized. In fact, undercapitalization is one of the prime reasons small businesses fail. While banks and other lenders can provide the cushion needed, most lenders expect owner equity of 20-25 percent. • Strong credit. To attract financing, business owners must demonstrate that they are capable of meeting their obligations, and that means having a strong credit rating. • Outside income. The owner should have access to savings or outside income until the business does well enough to provide a salary. • Bench strength. Business owners need to surround themselves with a team of trusted advisers — an accountant, an attorney, an insurance agent and a banker. Small busi-

The Midwest has gone from being one of the hardest-hit areas during the recession, to being an engine that is driving the nation’s way back to recovery. The job numbers are improving, incomes are up and so is consumer spending. During the last two decades, small and new businesses have created two of every three new jobs in the United States. According to the National Economic Council, small businesses employ 60 million Americans — or half of all jobs in the country. The numbers are im-
pressive and the success stories are many, but even long hours of hard work and steadfast dedication don’t guarantee success. In fact, more than half of small businesses fail within the first five years, according to the U.S. Small Business Administration. What makes the difference between success and failure? After years of helping entrepreneurs start everything from restaurants to biotechnology firms, I have found several fundamental factors that can determine whether a business succeeds or fails. • Experience.

Wren earns degree NEW KNOXVILLE — Lucas Christopher Wren, of New Knoxville, graduated from The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina, on May 5. Wren earned a bachelor’s degree in history. In addition, Wren earned dean’s list recognition for outstanding academic achievement during the spring semester.

Director Dawn Billing discussed issues that will be on the August special election. Among issues for local voters will be a tax levy for the Jackson Center Local Schools and a countywide issue for the maintenance and operation of the historical museums. Ballot language and forms will be sent to the Ohio Secretary of State’s office as required. Other counties that overlap with Shelby County in elections have been notified of the election. Billing also told board members what election expenses will be charged back to the various entities. Following the election, accounting will be completed and sent to the Shelby County Commissioners. For the Jackson Center Local Schools tax levy, there will be three precincts that will be divided between the levy and historical museum issues and they will each pay their share of the required legal advertising.

HOROSCOPE
BY FRANCIS DRAKE What kind of day will tomorrow be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign. For Thursday, June 21, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) For the next month, your focus will be on home, family and domestic affairs. Many of you will want to stay home or tweak where you live, to fix up the place. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A busy month ahead! Short trips, errands, conversations with siblings and neighbors, plus increased reading and writing create a jam-packed schedule for you. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Opportunities to earn money and spend it will arise in the next six weeks. Many of you will be laughing all the way to the bank. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Sun in your sign for the next four weeks is your chance to recharge your batteries for the rest of the year. This also is the time to put yourself first. Enjoy! LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Give some thought to what your new year ahead (birthday to birthday) might be. How do you want it to be different from last year? VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Get ready for a popular six weeks ahead! Accept invitations. Join groups and organizations. Enjoy schmoozing with others and discussing your future goals. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is the only time all year when the Sun is high in your chart, acting like a spotlight on you. And hey — this great lighting is complimen-
tary! That’s why bosses will offer you increased responsibility in the next month. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Grab every opportunity to travel or broaden your horizons. You’re hungry for adventure, and you want to learn something new. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) No doubt, you’ll feel intense about certain issues in the month ahead. In particular, you want to make sure you get your fair share of something, don’t you? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) The Sun is now moving directly opposite your sign, which is as far away from you as it gets all year. Since the Sun is your source of energy, you will need more sleep! (Pay attention to this need.) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Act on your urge to get better organized at home and at work. You can get a lot done in the next six weeks. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Oh, playful Pisces! Flirtations, sporting events, parties and social occasions promise you a lovely month ahead. New romance might arrive for some. YOU BORN TODAY You are passionate, sensual and amazingly charismatic. (Others will follow you almost blindly.) You embrace life and are involved in everything, especially family business. You have financial savvy, and you value a good education. You have a strong drive to succeed. A major change might take place this year, perhaps something as significant as what occurred around 2003.

Students in Vickie Peltier’s third-grade class at Emerson Elementary spent the spring working on an outdoor project — their very own vegetable garden. Students grew several varieties of vegetables and plants which were recently harvested and prepared to make healthy salads which the students ate for lunch. With financial assistance from the Farm Bureau and a grant from the Sidney Shelby Chamber of Commerce last year, raised vegetable beds were built on the grounds of Central Elementary School. After the building was closed last year, the beds were moved to their new home at Emerson. Each plant was planted by students who then cultivated and cared for the plants until they were ready to be harvested. The project challenged students in a variety of ways, as they measured, predicted and analyzed the project throughout the stages of building and growth.

EMERSON STUDENTS work with Lynda Adams from the Shelby Soil and Water Conservation District to harvest vegetables in their school’s garden. Pictured (l-r) are Ana Patel, A-Riee Jones, Bruce Jones, Adams, Cedric Johnson and Jacob Wheeler. “This was an amazing experience for the students,” said Peltier. “They were amazed by the entire process and were so excited to be eating food they had grown themselves. It was very rewarding for all of us!” Throughout the project, students kept journals of their experiences. The garden project was
featured in Our Ohio magazine for its focus on agriculture. Peltier was awarded the 2011 Outstanding Conservation Educator Award by the Shelby Soil and Water Conservation District. Peltier, recently retired after 35 years in education, was recognized for her ongoing support of conservation education.
UVCC students win cars for perfect school attendance PIQUA — Rewarding students for coming to school every day has been an Upper Valley Career Center tradition for 20 years. Career Center students with one- and twoyear perfect attendance were eligible to win a car or other prizes donated by local businesses to express their support and encourage student endeavors. The annual drawing was held during the morning of May 18, at the Applied Technology Center. This year, there were two cars in the drawing in addition to a variety of other prizes. A 1999 Mercury Sable was donated by Paul Sherry Chrysler Dodge & Jeep, Piqua, and a 1997 Eagle Vision was donated by Upper Valley Career Center Adult Education instructor Lois Shroyer, Piqua. Fifty-nine juniors and seniors achieved perfect attendance qualifying their participation in the reverse drawing. Principal Joe Davis wanted the student body to understand that attending school every day is the key to their success. “We encourage students to make every attempt to get to school
each day,” said Davis. “If the possibility of winning a car motivates them, we are happy to continue this tradition.” At the conclusion of the reverse drawing three students received keys and a turn to test their luck. The final winners were Hayley Monroe, Piqua, and Olivia Elifritz, Troy. Monroe, the daughter of Heather and Andy Luttrell, Piqua, received the title to the Mercury Sable. Elifritz, daughter of Tracey and Jeff Robins , won the Eagle Vision. DeVante’ Micheals, Troy, took home an IPod Touch as the third runner up. Other top awards include a membership from AAA of Piqua presented by Jackie Shinall, two $50 checks from the Piqua American Legion Post 184 presented by Gary Fessler, a $25 gift card presented by Piqua Area Chamber of Commerce President Kathy Sherman, and a $100 Series EE savings bBond from Unity National Bank.

form to be the best possible mother or father. I do realize that there are many duties, but I want only what you think is paramount. — Mother, Orlando, Fla. MOTHER: Teens must know that they share unconditional love with their parents. Without unconditional love from parents, children can feel abandoned and that can result in a huge emotional hang-up that can lead to serious problems. Many parents say they love their children, but when asked if they feel loved, the child often responds with a “No.” love Unconditional means loving 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. Unconditional love is there when things are going well and when things are not going well — through happiness and sadness — and under all situations. Unconditional love lasts forever! When unconditional love is shared, all in the family know they are loved.

toms of this disease. Current teaching holds that the body’s immune system is responsible for attacking the myelin nerve covering. I’m taking it that your son suffers from the most common variety of MS, relapsing-remitting. This kind of MS has episodes of worsening (relapsing) and episodes of improvement (remitting). The course is unpredictable, however. Relapses might occur around every two years. It’s not unreasonable for your son’s doctor to wait six months to see him again. That doesn’t mean, however, that should your son develop new symptoms or worsening of current problems, he should stay silent. He
ought to call his doctor immediately so that a change in medicines or a change in the way they’re taken can be made. With all the medicines now available, MS isn’t the incapacitating illness it once was for so many. It still remains an incapacitating illness for some, however. Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

then telling her might relieve any guilt you have about it. But only you — not I — can make, this decision. DEAR ABBY: I am writing to protest something that has made shopping increasingly frustrating. I’m referring to rude people who cut in ahead of customers who have been standing in line when the clerk calls out, “Next, please.” I place the responsibility solely on store management to ensure that lines move smoothly and fairly. Stores that have such arrangements are more likely to get my business. Management must empower clerks to insist on fairness in this regard. I have seen too many weak salespeople accept whoever rushes forward first.
I’m sure that many other readers have experienced the same frustration I have. If you print this, I promise I will copy it and send it to the store management where I’ve had these experiences. Abby, this would be a great service to shoppers and would make shopping much more pleasant for everyone. — AVERAGE SHOPPER, OAKLAND, CALIF. DEAR AVERAGE SHOPPER: Unfortunately, most cashiers are usually so preoccupied with ringing up or scanning and bagging the purchases that they can’t concern themselves with the occasional linejumper. Therefore, it’s up to YOU to assert yourself by saying firmly, “Excuse me, but I was next in line” when someone steps in front of you.

Clemens acquittal latest blow for sports cases WASHINGTON (AP) — Barry Bonds. Guilty on a technicality. At least that’s how much of the public sees it. It’s all that came out of a sevenyear investigation into baseball’s home run king. Lance Armstrong. Not even prosecuted. A two-year, multicontinent investigation brought to a close this year with no charges filed. Now Roger Clemens. Acquitted on all counts. A fiveyear investigation ended with the top pitcher of his generation celebrating with family hugs inside the courtroom. After three expensive failures, the government is done, it seems, with the business of pursuing high-profile cases of drugs-in-sports — with a track record not worth bragging about. “It was a tremendous waste of federal resources,” said Stanley Brand, a longtime Washington defense attorney who was counsel to the House of Representatives from 1976 to 1983. “The juries that acquitted these people weren’t persuaded by any of this. That’s the man on the street.” With the government striking out yet again, the policing of drugs in sports now falls to other entities. The U.S. AntiDoping Agency filed formal accusations last week against Armstrong that could strip the cyclist of his seven Tour de France victories. Armstrong denies any doping. Clemens, 49, was acquitted Monday on all six counts that he lied to Congress when he denied using performance-enhancing drugs. The government had been pursuing him since 2007, when he was first mentioned in the Mitchell Report on drug use in baseball, and he famously and vehemently disavowed any link to steroids and human growth hormone at a nationally televised hearing in 2008. Clemens’ lawyers derided the hearing as a “show trial,” and even some members of Congress at the time questioned the validity of the pro-
ceedings. But then-President George W. Bush had made the problem of drugs in sports a talking point ‚Äî even mentioning it in his State of the Union address in 2004. The FBI and Justice Department pursued a perjury case against the former pitcher that eventually involved 93 federal agents and officers. It carried over into the Obama administration, albeit without the head of the Justice Department’s criminal division, who stayed out of the case because he had represented Clemens at the hearing. Attorney General Eric Holder also took no part in the case because he had worked at a firm representing Clemens. Brand questioned why the aggressive federal investigators weren’t reined in. “Where was the adult supervision from the Justice Department to control these individual prosecutors from trying to make hay out of things that didn’t fit the big picture?” he said. “They contorted federal statutes to try to convict these guys.” In the end, the government could only find one person who could claim firsthand knowledge of Clemens’ using performance-enhancing drugs. He was a flawed witness, something even prosecutors acknowledged. Longtime strength coach Brian McNamee said he injected Clemens with steroids in 1998, 2000 and 2001 and with HGH in 2000, but his story changed over the years and his only physical evidence was kept haphazardly in a beer can. Yet the case came to trial. The public perception that the government had better things to do was evident during jury selection, when many prospective jurors felt the congressional investigation was a waste of taxpayer money. One man used the word “excessive” to describe the 2008 hearings — and he actually made it onto the final panel of 12 jurors.
MIAMI (AP) — The Oklahoma City Thunder had to play a little defense Tuesday, on behalf of their defensive star. Does Serge Ibaka really think LeBron James is a poor defender? “I’ve talked to him many times and he’s never mentioned that at all to me,” Oklahoma City coach Scott Brooks said. Yet Ibaka said it Monday, injecting some trash talk into the middle of the NBA Finals. Ibaka was quoted as saying: “LeBron is not a good defender. He can play defense for two to three minutes but not 48 minutes. LeBron can’t play (Kevin Durant) one on one.” James, the leading votegetter on the All-Defensive team, has already said it’s impossible to stop a player such as Durant for an entire game, so perhaps that’s what Ibaka meant. “Serge believes in me and he believes in what we do here, so he’s just taking up for me and taking up for our whole team,” Durant said. Ibaka didn’t talk after the Thunder’s morning shootaround, but James was asked for his response to the comments. “I’m not guarding KD for 48 minutes,” James said. “First of all, I’m not playing 48 minutes and KD’s not playing 48 minutes. So I’m not guarding him for 48 minutes. But while I’m on him, I’m just trying to make it tough. I’m not sitting here saying I’m a Durant-stopper because there’s no such thing. I’ve got to rely on my defense behind me to communicate with me. “But I don’t really care what he said. Stupid. Everyone says something to me every series. You guys keep trying to get a quote from me.” Told that the media might have gotten that quote with the “stupid” reference, James kept going. “But it’s not towards him, though,” James said. “It’s not. I don’t really care what he says. It’s stupid.” • AFTER FURTHER REVIEW, IT’S A FOUL: From playgrounds to the NBA Finals, it’s pretty common for basketball players. They don’t like to admit

MIAMI HEAT forward LeBron James (6) drives around Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard Thabo Sefolosha (2) of Switzerland during the first half of Game 4 of the NBA Finals basketball series Tuesday in Miami. The Thunder led 49-46 at the half. that they actually fouled someone. Take Kevin Durant, for example. He was whistled for five fouls in both Games 2 and 3, and was particularly unhappy with the foul that was called midway through the third quarter of Game 3 and sent him to the bench with his fourth. His assessment of the calls? “Well, a few of them I didn’t think were fouls,” Durant said. Thunder coach Scott Brooks had a similar initial reaction about the two fouls called against his team defending Heat 3-point shooters in the third quarter. He hoped the tape would show that the shooters flopped, but he conceded they were good calls. “That’s the thing in NBA basketball. You always complain during the game, ‘I didn’t foul him,’ but looking back, it’s a foul. You play a pick-up game, it’s the same thing,” Brooks said, imitating the argument that takes place on the playground. ‘I didn’t foul him.’ ‘No, it’s a
foul.’ “You have an argument, then you shoot for the ball and whoever gets the ball,” Brooks added. “We can’t do that here. We have to live with it. But I thought the two calls were great.” • HEAT’S HEIGHT: Charles Barkley picked the Heat and is sticking with them for now. He knows it won’t be easy for them in the future. Barkley, the Hall of Fame player and TNT analyst working on NBA TV’s pregame and postgame shows, said the Thunder just don’t play the right style to beat Miami. “The way you beat Miami is you have to pound them inside and Oklahoma City don’t have that,” he said. “I don’t think you’re going to beat Miami shooting jumpers with a perimeter-oriented team.” Barkley said Dallas was able to beat the Heat last year in the finals because the Mavericks had Tyson Chandler, who helped clog the lane against LeBron James and Dwyane Wade’s drives and was a force on the boards.
Ohio Supreme Court sides with OSU over ESPN COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Ohio Supreme Court on Tuesday sided with Ohio State University in an open records lawsuit brought by ESPN over documents it sought from the university related to the 2011 football team scandal and NCAA investigation. The network had sued the university alleging it violated state public records law by denying requests for items regarding the forced resignation of football coach Jim Tressel and star quarterback Terrelle Pryor. Among records sought were correspondences referring to Ted Sarniak, reportedly a mentor of Pryor in his hometown of Jeannette, Pa. Ohio State had already released hundreds of pages of documents to ESPN and other media outlets, including The Associated Press, by the time ESPN filed its lawsuit in July and argued that the university improperly cited a federal student-records privacy law in denying some records and improperly removing names from others. But the court said unanimously Tuesday that for the
most part the university properly shielded records covered by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. The university annually receives about 23 percent of its total operating dollars, more than $919 million, from federal funds, the court noted. “Therefore, Ohio State, having agreed to the conditions and accepted the federal funds, was prohibited by FERPA from systematically releasing education records without parental consent,” the court said. The court also rejected ESPN’s argument that the university improperly shielded some records on the basis of attorney-client privilege. The court did rule that Ohio State initially violated state open records law when it denied some of ESPN’s requests as either too broad or because the university would not release any records about the ongoing NCAA investigation. Although the court said Ohio State properly removed names from documents it did release, the court ordered it to
release the few records that were withheld entirely under the federal privacy law as long as students’ names were removed. Those records include an email chain between Tressel, the Ohio State athletics department official in charge of compliance, attorneys, and other officials scheduling a meeting. Another document refers to one person’s request to obtain a disability-insurance policy on behalf of a studentathlete. The university said it appreciated the court’s recognition of the way Ohio State interprets federal privacy laws. It also said it takes open records laws seriously. “The university provided ESPN with thousands of pages of records during the course of our NCAA investigation, and as now affirmed by a unanimous court, it acted responsibly in responding to the many varied and broad public record requests it received,” the university said in a statement. Messages left for ESPN’s attorney Tuesday were not immediately returned.

Post 217 1-3 in weekend games Sidney Post 217’s American Legion baseball team played four games over the weekend in the Nischwitz Tournament in Dayton. Sidney took on the Columbus Bruins and won 4-2 behind the pitching of Treg Francis. “We played a solid game and got great pitching from Treg,” said Legion coach Jason McLain. “He’s been a real workhorse on the mound for us this year.” He also had two hits, as did Dalton Bollinger
for Sidney. Rusty Hodgson and Mitch Gigandet both doubled. Sidney scored twice on four hits in the top of the seventh to win it. • In their second game, Sidney lost 2-1 to the Cincinnati Flames, despite an outstanding pitching effort from Nick Buchanan. He allowed just four hits, but the Flames got the winning run in the sixth on two errors by Sidney. “Nick pitched a gem of a game,” said McLain. “He shut down one of the
best traveling teams in the state. The majority of these players had signed D-I scholarships.” Sidney managed only two hits. • Sidney then played Saturday against Ohio Elite and lost 6-2 in a game halted after six innings because of rain. Francis had two hits, including a two-run single in the sixth, and Bollinger had a double. “We had five errors that really hurt our chances,” said McLain. “We played tough against

DALE EARNHARDT Jr. celebrates in victory lane after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Quicken Loans 400 auto race at Michigan International Speedway Sunday in Brooklyn, Mich.
After low-key party, Junior regains focus had a top 10 there,” he said. “I told Steve, ‘Let’s try to go get a top-10, if that’s first place or ninth place or whatever, let’s just concentrate on going there to get a personal best. And then I think we can move on from that, whatever that result may be.” But, there’s a part of Earnhardt who isn’t ready to write off a good day at Sonoma just yet. Statistically, the start of his season is one of his best ever in the Sprint Cup Series. He’s the only driver to complete every lap, and leads the series with 12 top-10s through 15 races. “There are stats I’m not used to bragging about,” he said. “I have to pinch myself just about after race.” His consistency, coupled with the dominating win at Michigan, now has him mentioned as a serious threat to win the Sprint Cup championship. Earnhardt has never won a Cup title, and hasn’t challenged for one since his six-win season in 2004, which he considers the strongest year of his career. He laughed Tuesday at the sudden buzz over his title chances, which have been validated since Sunday by everyone from current points leader Matt Kenseth to NASCAR president Mike Helton. Earnhardt believes he’ll have his hands full with defending champion Tony Stewart, teammate Jimmie Johnson, and Roush Fenway Racing drivers Kenseth and Greg Biffle. “I think everybody was just kind of drunk with excitement after the race,” he said. “Some of my buddies that I race against, Matt and Mr. Helton, everybody was just excited about the end of the race. I don’t think we are the top team, you’ve got to look at probably Tony, Jimmie, and Biffle and Matt. “But we are going to be in the Chase, and we’re going to go after it.”

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Turns out the victory party for Dale Earnhardt Jr. wasn’t much of a party at all. Earnhardt snapped a 143-race winless streak at Michigan International Speedway, then celebrated at home in North Carolina with friends and family. “It was good, we went home and some of the family and my friends were there, and we just stood around and talked about the win,” Earnhardt told The Associated Press on Tuesday. “We played some music, it was a pretty good time.” It was hardly the wild party people expected from NASCAR’s most popular driver, who was unaware of reports the nightclub he owns in Charlotte downtown gave away free drinks for an hour after Sunday night’s win. “That’s cool,” he said, laughing. Next up for Earnhardt was his first celebration at Hendrick Motorsports since the organization began marking wins with the ringing of a victory bell throughout the shop. Earnhardt has been with Hendrick since 2008, when he won his only other race with the team — at Michigan four years to the day of Sunday’s victory. He said he’s never been present when any of his teammates rang the bell. Once that’s over, it will be full focus on Sunday’s race at Sonoma Raceway, where Earnhardt has always struggled. In 12 career starts, his average finish is 22.2 and he’s led just nine laps on the winding road course. His career best finish is 11th, done three times. He’s set modest goals for this weekend with crew chief Steve Letarte, and is anxious to get on with his summer with return trips to Daytona, Pocono and Michigan looming ahead. “I’ve kind of got to reel it in a little bit because of Sonoma, I ain’t never

ROBBERY SUSPECT Carl Nelson Norton Jr., 21, of Trotwood, appears via video in Sidney Municipal Court Tuesday. Norton was arraigned before Judge Duane Goettomoeller. Bond was set at $40,000.
STANDOFF “He picked a really bad time,” said Gessler. “Our officers were on the scene and we had three officers who saw him running.” As police responded to the hotel, two students from Houston High School were driving by and pulled into Taco Bell. The juveniles witnessed an incident following the robbery. “A lady came into Taco Bell and she was screaming and hollering,” said one of them. “It is just unreal to think of this happening here. It’s like something you’d see in a movie.” According to the teen, the woman met some other people there and they reportedly spoke to the suspect on the phone and told him to “get up to the roof, jump and run as fast as you can.” After the woman and her companions left, the teens drove across the street and told police what happened. There is no word on the whereabouts of the woman. Police officers closed Michigan Street from Vandemark Road to Interstate 75 around 4:45 p.m. According to Gessler, the negotiators were able to make brief contact with the suspect and it was reported that Norton was armed and “had made comments to individuals that he wasn’t afraid to shoot.” People staying at the Travel Inn and at the Country Hearth Inn and Suites were either evacuated or secured in their rooms. There were several children who were report-
edly in a room at the Travel Inn. The father was outside of the hotel when the incident started and police did not allow him to return to his room. The children were led from the hotel by members of the Sidney and Piqua Tactical Response Teams and were reunited with their father. The heat played a role in the incident as temperatures climbed near 90 degrees. With added gear and bullet proof vests, officers took many breaks and rotated throughout the afternoon. “The heat was very exhausting for personnel,” said Gessler. “We basically had to rotate and rehab our people.” Because the threat was contained to a single room, officers chose not to “escalate the situation” according to Gessler. The power was cut to the room where Norton was hiding at 9 p.m. and then at 10:30 p.m., Gessler said a non-lethal bean bag round was shot into the window which “didn’t harm anyone but encouraged him (Norton) to contact the negotiator.” Norton exited the hotel room into police custody around 11:15 p.m., ending the eight-hour ordeal which involved more than 40 officers. People staying at the area hotels were allowed back into their rooms shortly after Norton was taken into custody. He was transported to the Shelby County Jail. James Tyler Evans, 23, 736 Country Side Lane, Apt. 9, was also arrested during the incident. Evans was reportedly

BULLETIN BOARD
Blood donor ID system changes DAYTON — For many blood donors, a brightly colored arm bandage comes with a sense of accomplishment and a well-worn Community Blood Center (CBC) Donor ID card is an even greater source of pride. But those familiar ID cards are being replaced as CBC undergoes a major software conversion and donors will need their new donor ID number to schedule an appointment. On June 4, CBC launched a new software system that will automatically assign each donor a new, eightdigit donor identification number. For most donors, the replacement process begins when they arrive at a CBC branch or mobile blood drive to donate. When CBC registration staff members scan the old card, they will indicate that the card must be replaced. A firm contracted by CBC will create the new card and send it to the donor by mail. Donors will receive a sturdy, plastic ID card with their name, blood type, ID number and bar code as a replacement for the paper ID card. Donors will also receive a plastic key-fob card with the same information. Another very important outcome of the software upgrade and the donor ID conversion is that donors must use their new ID number to log onto www.DonorTime.com to schedule an appointment. They will not be able to access their www.DonorTime.com account with their old ID number. CBC has emailed new donor ID number notifications to thousands of CBC donors, but many will remain unaware that, as of June 4, their donor ID number has changed. Anyone who has trouble logging on and scheduling an appointment on www.DonorTime.com should call CBC at (800) 388-GIVE for assistance.

Sidney Troop 97 celebrates 75 years of scouting BY PATRICIA ANN SPEELMAN pspeelman@sdnccg.com “Be Prepared.” Almost everyone recognizes the Boy Scout motto. Were its founding leaders prepared to make history when they organized Troop No. 97 in Sidney 75 years ago? Perhaps they weren’t thinking as far into the future as 2012. They had no idea that what they chartered in 1936 and started in 1937 would still be going strong more than a decade into the 21st century and that Troop 97 would be the oldest continuously operating troop in the district. A group of interested members of St. Paul’s United Church of Christ in Sidney formed the troop and Robert H. Roth Sr. became its leader. “We lived, ate, breathed (Boy Scouts) — the whole nine yards — when he was scoutmaster,” said his daughter, Miriam Minniear, of Sidney. “Our (family) vacaPhoto provided tions were going down to Camp Pike on JOHN KINDIG, of Sidney, finishes his stint in the Memorial Day parade in 2010. A visitors’ day.” member of Troop 97, he has been a scout for more than four years.
Camp Pike
Camp Pike, in southeast Ohio’s Pike County, was where those early members of Troop 97 earned badges in campfire building, pathfinding, first aid, and other campcraft disciplines. Don Shatto, who joined in 1940, remembered hiking several miles from the camp into the village of Morgantown once a week. But scouts traveled from Sidney to Camp Pike in cars. “When we’d get ready to go, we’d go to the Roadside Park. A truck would come there. We’d load all our stuff on the truck. Then we’d go to camp in cars,” Shatto said. The scouts lived in teepees. “One time, it just poured down rain,” Shatto said. “Water ran right through the teepees. We had to get everything up onto the cots and got on top of that to get out of the water.” At some point in the late 1940s or early 1950s, Troop 97 began camping instead at Cricket Holler near Dayton. Jinny Shreves, of Sidney, was a Cub Scout den mother and her husband, Marvin, now deceased, was a Troop 97 leader in the 1960s and early ’70s. But leadership was the culmination of a long scouting career for Marvin.
Earned Eagle He joined the Troop 97 Cub Scouts in 1941 and continued until he earned his Eagle, the highest Boy Scout award. He moved through the ranks of assistant patrol leader, patrol leader, junior assistant scoutmaster and assistant scoutmaster. He became a leader in 1952. The Cub Scouts disbanded somewhere in the troop’s history. It’s unclear when. But current Scoutmaster Tom Frantz was unaware that there had ever been a “feeder” cub troup associated with Troop 97 until recently. Frantz is one of seven brothers who all earned Eagles in the troop. He has been scoutmaster, on and off, since 1981. His brother, Nick Frantz, is an assistant scoutmaster now. “We’ve been fortunate to have real good adult help,” Tom Frantz said in explaining how the troop has remained active for so long. “Each troop has its own personality. A troop is supposed to be youth-run. We try to make sure they’re having a good time and benefiting from scouting.” Through the years, membership has ranged from one boy to 35. Currently, there are 14 boys in Troop 97.
Earn badges
mechanical drawing, metal work and athletics. Shreves has kept cards indicating that Marvin was awarded dozens of merit badges. She said she accompanied Marvin to Boy Scout activities even before they were married. “They had something special once in the old St. Paul’s Church basement,” she said. “I had a fancy dress with a big bow in the back. I was sitting in a chair, watching. Two scouts, Tom Flinn and George Kookootsedes, quietly untied my bow and tied me to the chair.” She laughed. “They were good Boy Scouts!” Today’s members of Troop 97 have continued the decades-long tradition of assisting with Memorial Day celebrations in Sidney. They help with the parade and decorate with flags the graves of all veterans.
Chose Troop 97
family of four kids and Mom, Gene Moon, would go along. Our two girls loved it,” Shreves added. This week, Frantz and some scouts from Troop 97 are camping in Alaska. Shatto’s best scout memories are of camping. But Frantz’s favorite moments are the Eagle ceremonies he has been a part of. “It’s really not my day. It’s their day,” he said of the scouts he’s led to their highest honors. “I can remember almost every one — watching a young man have his parents put the pin on his shirt.”
Senior patrol leader Kindig, a member of First Church of God, recently finished a term as senior patrol leader of the scouts who make their home at St. Paul’s. “That’s the guy who runs the troop,” he said, explaining what a senior patrol leader does. “Boy Scouts is a great organization that kids should be involved in because later in life it will benefit you in many different ways.” No doubt the hundreds of alumni of Troop 97 — city mayors, police chiefs, industry leaders, business owners and community pillars among them — would agree.
Kindig said he chose to join Troop 97 because of its strong focus on camping and outdoor activities. A star scout — not far from reaching life status — he said that in addition to summer camps and sessions in distant places, the group also camps almost monthly nearby at the Shelby County Fairgrounds, in Lockington, at Kaiser Lake or Lake Loramie and other local spots. To fund their activities, they sell pop at the county fair each year. They also sell mulch and popcorn. They hope to have a 75th anniversary celebration in September; but first, this summer, they will camp at Camp Friedlander, near Cincinnati. Some of them have attended Philmont, a Boy Scout reservation in Cimarron, N.M., for 10 days of backcountry backpacking. Marvin Shreves attended camp with Troop 97 in Canada in 1949. When Jinny Shreves was a den mother, the troop hiked closer to home. “We were always going on hikes out in Tawawa, having little cookouts,” she said. Minniear remembered local events, too. “My dad had a lot of scavenger hunts and ended up in the backyard for ice cream. You had to make your own ice cream back then,” she said. Troop 97 also camped in Michigan. “In about 1964, 1965, they always took the troop on a summer week’s SDN Photo/Patricia Ann Speelman camp-out in Michigan and the whole DON SHATTO, of Sidney, looks over the families would go and they needed badges he earned as a member of Boy Marv to help out. My brother, Bruce Moon, was in at that time, so our entire Scout Troop 97 in the early 1940s.
Twenty-first century teens are just as eager to earn badges as were their mid-20th-century counterparts, but the badges they work on have changed with the times. “When I was a scout, we didn’t have a Family Life merit badge,” Frantz said. “They don’t teach Morse code any more. Now there’s a badge for cinematography.” Current Troop 97 scout John Kindig, 15, of Sidney, has just completed his Citizenship in the Community merit badge. The son of Eric and Marsha Kindig, he said that meeting the requirements for the badge taught him valuable lessons. “The most important thing I’ve learned (by being a scout) recently is that community service is something that’s not a boring duty. Volunteering is an opportunity,” he said. In his four years with the scouts in SDN Photo/Patricia Ann Speelman the ’40s, Shatto earned badges in safety, For photo reprints, visit www.sidneydailynews.com reading, pathfinding, first aid, dog care, BOY SCOUT memorabilia belonging to Don Shatto and Jinny Shreves, both of Sidcycling, public health, personal health, ney, recalls what scouting was like in the mid-20th century.
