Voters return incumbents Election went to Sidney school board smoothly

BY JENNIFER BUMGARNER jbumgarner@sdnccg.com

In Tuesday’s election, voters chose to retain current Sidney City School Board of Education members in what incumbents described as a vote of confidence in the board’s actions.

Melanie Cook, Kelly Rees and Darrell Spangler were all re-elected to their positions on the board. Cook currently serves as president and Spangler is vice president. William Warner Jr. ran this year for a seat on the board but was not elected.

“I want to offer congratulations to my opponents,” said Warner. “I always said voters would make the right choice.

Now is the time to work together and make Sidney City Schools the best they can be.”

The results were close. Cook received 25.39 percent, or 3,560 votes; Rees received 25.83 percent, or 3,622 votes; Spangler received 29.93 percent, or 4,196

Spangler received the most votes in the city of Sidney at 3,167. Rees received 2,744 votes in the city, Cook received 2,690 votes and Warner received 1,967 votes within the city. In the townships, Spangler received the most votes with 930. Rees received 3,622 votes, Cook had 3,560 and Warner had 675.

“I feel gratified that the people of the Sidney City School District have confidence in

what I have done,” said Spangler. “I’m proud to be a part of this team.”

Cook and Rees both echoed that sentiment.

Spangler Cook added, “I look forward to building on the foundation that has been built recently.” Rees also looks at the results as a “vote in confidence” that the district is “headed in the right direction.”

Steven Smith received 5,016 votes in an uncontested race for a term which will expire in December 2013. Smith was appointed to the seat in June following the resignation of board member Tom Shaffer and ran unopposed on Tuesday. Shaffer stepped down from the board in May after accepting a new job which required that he move out of the area.

BY KATHY LEESE In spite of what Shelby County Board of Elections officials described as a “huge turnout” for Tuesday’s election, everything went smoothly with few problems.

Chris Gibbs, Shelby County Board of Elections chairman, described the turnout, stating that 50.43 percent of Shelby County voters came out to vote in Tuesday’s election. He said he felt Issue 2 played a significant role in bringing voters to the polls locally.

Although precincts closed at 7:30 p.m., Board of Elections officials were picking up the first ballots by 8 p.m., Gibbs said. “We were running summary reports at 9:15 p.m.” for the entire county.

Gibbs said the city precincts were the first to report results, but he noted, that is because of their proximity See ELECTION/Page 10

Ohio voters reject new collective bargaining law

BY JULIE CARR SMYTH Associated Press COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio voters on Tuesday rejected a new law restricting the collective bargaining abilities of public employee unions in an unusually vigorous off-year election that drew attention across the nation.

Voters also approved an amendment to the state constitution intended to keep government from requiring Ohioans to participate in any health care system.

In local elections Mayor Columbus Michael Coleman and Akron’s longest-serving mayor, Don Plusquellic, both Democrats, won their re-election bids.

At a hotel ballroom in downtown Columbus, large screens showing the labor-backed opponent coalition’s advertisements and clips of their rallies flanked the stage. With 56 percent of votes counted, the issue was being defeated by about 62 percent.

Republican Gov. John Kasich said “the people have spoken” and that he would listen.

Cincinnati firefighter Doug Stern said he hopes lawmakers would be willing to work with firefighters and other public workers should they try again to change collective bargaining.

“We want the ability

FIREFIGHTER TOM Sullivan campaigns against Issue 2 outside a polling location in Strongsville Tuesday. Ohioans are deciding the winner of this year’s drawn-out fight over a law limiting collective bargaining for 350,000 unionized public workers.

The issue tops the Election Day list of ballot questions before the state’s voters. to sit down at the table,” cratic President Barack said Stern, who has put Obama’s re-election in 15 years with the fire campaign had reminded department. “We live in supporters that Tuesthe communities we day’s results affect naserve.

federal health care overhaul, which mandates that most Americans purchase health care.

The measure will have limited legal impact, as federal laws generally trump state laws, but backers hope it can send a message to Washington on opposition to the mandates.

Opponents of the amendment said its broad wording could have unintended consequences on state health care laws.

In another ballot effort, they rejected a move to allow judges to remain on the bench through age 75, keeping the age limit at 70 and potentially affecting 10 percent of sitting judges over the next six years.

The fight over the collective bargaining law, Senate Bill 5, was expected to attract potentially record crowds of voters for an off-year election.

In the county that includes Columbus, people lined up outside polling places before they opened, and voting remained steady to heavy, said Ben Piscitelli, spokesman for the Franklin County Board of Elections.

“One precinct told me today that this looks more like a presidential election primary, in that it’s heavier than the usual off-year election,” he said.

The union law was the hot topic for 18-yearold Rachel Schultz and other students who waited five to 10 minutes to vote at Ohio State University’s student union. Schultz, whose father is a police officer in Hamilton, said she voted to strike down

How Shelby County voted In Shelby County, voters disagreed with the state voters on State Issue 2. A total of 8,464 voters (53.07 percent) voted for the issue, while 7,485 (46.93 percent) voted no.

On Issue 1, voters cast 5,382 votes(34.95 the law.

“He deserves the right to negotiate on his stuff,” she said.

Others favored the limits on public employees.

“I think they should have to pay their fair share like the rest of us,” said Jane Boden, a nonunion nurse and self-described independent from Anderson Township in suburban Cincinnati. She said she felt safety forces used misleading advertising on the issue.

“They pretend that if the issue passes, they won’t be able to protect public safety,” said Boden, 64. “Those are fear tactics, and they are treating the public as though we are stupid.”

The effort to turn back the bargaining law pitted unions representing police, firefighters, teachers, prison guards and other government employees against Republicans at the Statehouse seeking to limit labor’s reach and reduce government costs.

The measure, which appeared as Issue 2 on the ballot, would have

It would have outlawed public worker strikes, scraps binding arbitration and prevents promotions based solely on seniority.

We Are Ohio, the union-backed coalition opposing the law, had significant leads in both fundraising and polls heading into Election Day, building off anger over the bill that prompted days of Statehouse protests earlier this year.

The Ohio Secretary of State’s office said no major voting problems were reported in the first half of the day, though several voter terminals at a suburban Columbus elementary school were briefly evacuated while firefighters checked a gas odor.

BY JENNIFER BUMGARNER jbumgarner@sdnccg.com A man accused of stealing more than $194,000 in carbide pleaded guilty when he appeared in Shelby County Common Pleas Court Tuesday.

Scott A. Gray, 41, 127 E. Main St., Russia, pleaded guilty to one count of grand theft, a felony of the fourth degree. Last week, Loramie Township Trustee Jeff O’Reilly, 36, 3815 Redmond Road, Russia, pleaded guilty to the same charge.

Gray and O’Reilly pleaded guilty to stealing $194,564.50 worth of scrap and carbide tooling. Gray was released on his own recognizance and sentencing has not yet been scheduled.

The investigation into the theft began in September but the carbide theft began in December 2009. According to reports, Gray was an employee at Voisard Tool Services, 2700 RussiaVersailles Road, when the thefts took place. According to reports, Gray had sustained a shoulder injury and had to pay for surgery, and following the surgery, he became behind on bills.

Allegedly that was when Gray and O’Reilly decided to start taking carbide from Voisard Tool Services and turn it in as scrap. O’Reilly works at O’Reilly Precision Products. The carbide was allegedly taken to Urban Elsass and Sons.

NATION/WORLD BRIEFLY

Justices concerned WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court invoked visions of an all-seeing Big Brother and satellites watching us from above. Then things got personal Tuesday when the justices were told police could slap GPS devices on their cars and track their movements, without asking a judge for advance approval.

The occasion for all the talk about intrusive police actions was a hearing in a case about whether the police must get a search warrant before using GPS technology to track criminal suspects. The outcome could have implications for other high-tech surveillance methods as well.

The justices expressed deep reservations about warrantless GPS tracking.

But there also was no clear view about how or whether to regulate police use of the devices.

Berlusconi may resign ROME (AP) — Premier Silvio Berlusconi promised Tuesday to resign after Parliament passes economic reforms demanded by the European Union, capping a two-decade political career that has ended with Italy on the brink of being swept into Europe’s debt crisis.

Berlusconi met for about an hour Tuesday evening with Italian President Giorgio Napolitano after losing his parliamentary majority during a routine vote earlier in the day. In a statement, Napolitano’s office said Berlusconi had “understood the implications of the vote” and promised to resign once parliament passes economic reforms designed to spur growth and rein in Italy’s public debt.

U.N: Iran seeks nukes VIENNA (AP) — The U.N. nuclear atomic energy agency said Tuesday for the first time that Iran is suspected of conducting secret experiments whose sole purpose is the development of nuclear arms.

The report is the strongest sign yet that Iran seeks to build a nuclear arsenal, despite claims to the contrary. With Israel threatening a military response, the report opens the way for a new confrontation between the West and Iran.

In Washington, officials said the report confirms U.S. suspicions about the military nature of Iran’s program.

OUT OF THE BLUE

Man kept 29 mummified bodies MOSCOW (AP) — The Russian historian had always been open about his interest in the dead and eagerly described how he loved to rummage through cemeteries, studying grave stones to uncover the life stories behind them.

What he failed to mention, according to police, was that he had dug up 29 bodies and taken them back to his apartment, where he dressed them in women's clothes scavenged from graves and then put them on display.

A police video of the man's apartment in the Volga River city of Nizhny Novgorod released Monday shows his macabre collection of what look like dolls.

Lifesize, they are dressed in bright dresses and headscarves, their hands and faces wrapped in what appears to be cloth. Police said they were mummified remains.

Cain says he won’t drop out of GOP race

BY SHANNON MCCAFFREY Associated Press SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — A defiant Herman Cain declared Tuesday he would not drop his bid for the Republican presidential nomination in the face of allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior.

“Ain’t gonna’ happen,” Cain said at a news conference a day after a fourth woman accused him of unwanted sexual advances.

“We will get through this,” he added, trying to steady a campaign that has been rocked by the controversy for the past 10 days.

Cain denied anew that he had ever behavior inappropriately and said the alleged incidents “they simply didn’t happen.” He said he would be willing to take a lie detector test if he had a good reason.

Earlier in the day, Cain sought to undercut the credibility of the latest woman whose accusations are threatening his Republican presidential campaign. His chief rival, Mitt Romney, weighed in for the first time, calling the allegations “particularly disturb-

woman in the Treasury Department’s office of inspector general for tax administration.

When asked about Kraushaar, Cain said he recalled her accusation of sexual harassment but insisted “it was found to be baseless.”

Cain contended that “the Democratic machine” was pushing the allegations but said he could not point to anyone in particular. He also suggested his accusers were lying.

Earlier, Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who has been a GOP front-runner for months, told ABC News/Yahoo! the allegations were serious “and they’re going to have to be addressed seriously.” He called the latest accusations disturbing, and Cain didn’t disagree, both in an earlier interview and at the news conference.

“He’s right. They are disturbing to me,” Cain said.

“They are serious. And I have taken them seriously.”

But they’re untrue, he declared.

“I reject all of those charges,” he said, adding that “I have never acted inappropriately with anyone” and didn’t even recognize Bialek.

Dem governor re-elected in Ky. Ohio repeals law limiting collective bargaining

BY CHRIS SUNDHEIM Associated Press Voters re-elected Kentucky’s Democratic governor Tuesday and picked a new governor in Mississippi, casting ballots that could foreshadow the public’s political mood just two months ahead of the first presidential primary and nearly four years into the worst economic slowdown since the Depression.

A wide range of ballot measures was also decided, including passage of a proposal to restore the bargaining rights of Ohio public employees and a Mississippi referendum asking whether life should be defined as beginning at conception. Supporters of the Mississippi measure hope to use it to mount a legal attack on Roe v. Wade, the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision that established the right to abortion.

In both governors’ races, the offices had been expected to stay in the hands of incumbent parties, suggesting voters were not ready to abandon their loyalties, despite the nation’s economic woes.

Still, the contests were being closely watched for any hints going into 2012, when 10 states will elect governors.

In Ohio, voters overwhelmingly repealed a new law severely limiting the bargaining rights of more than 350,000

teachers, firefighters, police officers and other public employees. With 23 percent of precincts reporting, the repeal effort had 61 percent of the vote, compared with 39 percent who voted to keep the law.

The decision was a stiff blow to Gov. John Kasich and cast doubt on other Republican governors who have sought union-limiting measures as a way to curb spending.

The disputed law permitted workers to negotiate wages but not pensions or health care benefits, and it banned public-worker strikes, scraps binding arbitration and eliminates annual raises for teachers.

The outcome will no doubt be watched by presidential candidates as a gauge of the Ohio electorate, which is seen as a bellwether. No Republican has won the White House without Ohio, and only two Democrats have done so in more than a century.

Also in Ohio, voters approved a proposal to prohibit people from being required to buy health insurance as part of the national health care overhaul.

The vote was mostly symbolic, but Republicans hope to use it as part of a legal challenge.

The governors’ races were of keen interest to both parties, since governors can marshal get-out-the-vote efforts

crucial to any White House candidate.

The first presidential primary is Jan. 10 in New Hampshire.

In Kentucky, Gov. Steve Beshear was easily re-elected despite high unemployment, budget shortfalls and an onslaught of third-party attack ads. He became the second Democrat to win a governor’s race this year, after West Virginia’s Early Ray Tomblin.

In Mississippi, voters were picking a new governor to succeed Haley Barbour, who could not run again because of term limits. Lt. Gov. Phil Bryant appeared poised to keep the governor’s mansion in GOP hands. He faced Hattiesburg Mayor Johnny Dupree, the first black major-party nominee for governor in Mississippi.

The Mississippi measure that would define life as beginning at conception was given a decent chance of approval.

Passage would be the first victory in the country for the so-called personhood movement, which aims to make abortion all but illegal. Similar attempts have failed in Colorado and are under way elsewhere.

In Arizona, state Sen. Russell Pearce, architect of the tough immigration law that put the state at the forefront of the national debate, faced a recall attempt led by a fellow Republican. But Pearce held a 3-to-1 fundraising advantage.

Air Force admits its morgue lost body parts from war dead

BY ROBERT BURNS Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — The Dover military mortuary entrusted with the solemn duty of receiving and caring for America’s war dead twice lost body parts of remains shipped home from Afghanistan, the Air Force revealed Tuesday.

Three mortuary supervisors have been punished, but no one was fired in a grisly case reminiscent of the scandalous mishandling and misidentifying of remains at Arlington National Cemetery.

The Air Force, which runs the mortuary at Dover, Del., acknowledged failures while insisting it made the right decision in not informing families linked to the missing body parts until last weekend — months after it completed a probe of 14 sets of allegations lodged by three members of the mortuary staff.

Gen. Norton Schwartz, the Air Force chief of staff, told a Pentagon news conference he and the service’s top civilian, Michael Donley, are ultimately responsible for what happens at Dover and for its mistakes.

“There’s no escaping it,” Schwartz said.

However, an independent federal investigative agency, the Office of Special Counsel, said the Air Force had fallen short on accountability. That office, which forwarded the original whistleblower allegations to the Pentagon in May and July 2010 and reviewed the subsequent Air Force investigative report, faulted it for taking an overly narrow view of what went wrong at Dover between 2008 and 2010.

“Several of the Air Force’s findings are not supported by the evidence presented and thus do not appear reasonable,” the special counsel’s office said. “In these instances the report demonstrates a pattern of the Air Force’s failure to acknowledge culpability for wrongdoing relating to the treatment of remains.”

Special Counsel Carolyn Lerner said her office is investigating allegations by the three whistleblowers that the Air Force retaliated against them in several ways, including an attempt to fire one of them.

The three whistleblowers still work at Dover. They are James Parsons, an embalming/autopsy technician; Mary Ellen

Spera, a mortuary inspector; and William Zwicharowski, a senior mortuary inspector.

There is no suggestion of criminal wrongdoing at Dover, and the Air Force said it found no evidence that those faulted at Dover had deliberately mishandled any remains. They attributed the mistakes largely to a breakdown in procedures and a failure to fix problems that had been building over time.

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta issued a statement saying he was “deeply disturbed” by the matter. Panetta said he supports the Air Force’s findings but has asked a separate panel of the Defense Health Board, a Pentagon advisory group, to conduct its own review of how the Dover mortuary is run. That review, to be led by former surgeon general Dr. Richard Carmona, is due within 60 days.

As gruesome as the revelations appear, Schwartz acknowledged that it’s possible that mistakes also were made prior to 2008, during a period when U.S. troops were killed at even higher rates in Iraq.

Other Air Force officials said on Monday they knew of no prior cases of mishandled remains at Dover.

DAR seeks best teacher

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, Nov. 10, 2011 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) The Full Moon today might create a dilemma between the responsibilities you have for other people’s property versus the responsibilities you have for your own. Caution.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Today, the only Full Moon in your sign all year is taking place. This creates tension between you and partners or close friends. Stay as mellow as possible.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be extra patient with co-workers, customers or anyone you encounter in your job or health-related areas. The Full Moon today could trigger conflicts in these areas.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Be aware that you have to be extra cooperative with groups today.

Don’t get your belly in a rash. The Full Moon today makes relationships difficult.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Don’t go up against authority figures today, because it won’t be a pretty picture. Sit back and let conflict pass you by. It’s a Full Moon today, so keep your head down and your powder dry.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This continues to be an accident-prone time for you because it is a Full Moon day. Issues regarding publishing, higher education, medicine and the law might come to a head.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Don’t be entrenched in your point of view about shared property, inheritances, insurance

matters and red-tape details. In a few days, things might look different.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Today, the only Full Moon opposite your sign is taking place. That’s why relationships with partners and close friends are so dicey. Stay calm (and quiet).

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Don’t make an issue about things at work, because people are off their game today. It’s the Full Moon, which makes everyone more emotional than usual.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Be patient with romantic partners today, and definitely be patient with children. Furthermore, be patient with colleagues in sports. It’s a Full Moon day!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Don’t dig in your heels about domestic matters today, especially when talking to parents or family members. It’s not worth it. People might be emotionally delicate.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Allow yourself extra time for everything that you do today. Also, be extra vigilant about walking, jogging and driving. Watch what you say as well, because today is a Full Moon day.

How do you feel about this?

MOST TEENS LIE AND CHEAT TEENS: Have you ever cheated on a test or lied to your parents? If you said yes to one or both questions, you are not alone. The “Report Card on the Ethics of American Youth,” compiled by the Josephson Institute of Ethics, found that the majority of high school students have

both cheated on an examination and lied to their parents. The nationwide survey of 8,600 high school students found that 71 percent had cheated on an exam and 92 percent lied to their parents within the past year.

These figures are shockingly high, and their implications are almost worse. If most teens are lying and cheating, how will they behave as adults?

We listen to the people when they voice their opinions and we try to stay neutral. We don’t want to levy any new taxes,” he added. “We’re one of the few townships that don’t have a road tax and we’re getting along fine without it. We just watch our spending.”

This time, voters decided to renew the 0.6 mill operating levy by comfortable margins in all three counties.

And those are important things.”

I’m hoping I can bring all my (career) experience to benefit the people.”

Paulus could not be reached for comment.

Cedar Fair CEO retiring SANDUSKY (AP) — The retiring CEO of the nation’s third biggest amusement park chain is leaving behind a legacy that will be hard to reach — at least in terms of heights and thrills.

Under the watch of president and chief executive Richard Kinzel, Cedar Fair Entertainment Co. was transformed from a small collection of amusement parks into an industry giant, and its flagship park along Lake Erie grew into a major destination by opening several record-breaking roller coasters.

Kinzel, 70, who is retiring at the end of the year, started his career managing food stands on the midway in the early 1970s and has been the company’s chief executive officer since 1986.

He told the Sandusky Register he found out early in his career how important roller coasters are to the bottom line when he was director of operations at Cedar Point, midway between Toledo and Cleveland.

Attendance topped 3 million for the first time when the park in 1976

opened Corkscrew, one of the first roller coasters that turned riders upside down three times. The park again drew a record number of visitors two years later when it opened Gemini, a 125-foot coaster that was the tallest in the world at the time.

The park didn’t add any major coasters for several years and attendance dropped. Kinzel knew the park needed a jolt and decided to build a 185-foot-tall coaster, just enough to top the height record. But a last minute decision brought the height to just over 200 feet.

“If Magnum XL-200 had bombed, my career would have been very different,” Kinzel told the Sandusky Register.

The $7.5 million coaster opened in 1989 and paid for itself in one year. It changed the entire amusement park industry by creating a demand for bigger and faster rides.

Cedar Point set out to market itself as “The Roller Coaster Capital of the World” with several record breakers over the next decade.

The park later became the first with coasters topping 300- and 400-feet.

Cedar Point’s growth allowed the parent company to add five parks between 1992 and 2004.

Cedar Fair then made a huge splash in 2006 when it acquired five parks from Paramount Parks Inc., elevating the Ohio company’s status to third, behind only Walt Disney Co. and Six Flags Entertainment Corp.

Cedar Fair grew from a $100-million company in 1986 to one with revenues of $978 million by 2010.

Cedar Fair has had troubles in recent years.

It bought Geauga Lake, an amusement and water park near Cleveland, in 2004 for $145 million only to close all of its roller coasters and thrill rides three years later. It also took on a large debt with the Paramount deal, leading to a failed attempt to sell the company to a private equity firm.

ELECTION 2011

Mariano wins Clinton ELECTION Township trustee post

BY KATHY LEESE Frank Mariano of Sidney unseated incumbent Robinson Joslin, also of Sidney, during Tuesday’s election to be named the new Clinton Township Trustee.

Mariano won over Joslin by 628 votes, with Mariano receiving 2,105 votes or 41.06 percent of the vote to Joslin’s 1,477 votes or 28.81 percent of the vote. A third candidate, Jim Gaier of Sidney, received 1,545 votes or 30.13 percent of the total.

Joslin had served two terms as Clinton Township Trustee, having previously served as chairman of the Clinton Township Zoning Board for 16 years and as Clinton Township Zoning administrator.

Mariano, a Democrat, has served as a Sidney City Council member for 12 years and as Mayor of Sidney for three terms. Mariano most recently ran for Shelby County Commissioner and was not seeking reelection to city council.

Following the election, Mariano said, “God is good. It was an exciting race. I appreciate the other two candidates.

They ran a good race.

I’m looking forward to taking the role and serving in the township.”

“I appreciate all the support my family and friends gave me (and) the folks who put out the signs,” Mariano said.

While Mariano said he believes being a Clin-

to the Board of Elections, with it taking longer for other precincts to report from further out in the county.

Gibbs noted that all of the electronics, accounting and auditing used during the election went smoothly.

Unofficially, there were 16,125 ballots cast in Shelby County and Gibbs added, “we do have 306 provisional ballots. We’ll be working on those between now and election certification.”

Election certification will take place Nov. 21.

The board is waiting on absentee ballots postmarked by Nov. 7 to arrive. They have 10 days to come in to the Board of Elections. At that time, those ballots will be certified, Gibbs said.

Commenting on the Sidney Municipal Court Judge’s race, Gibbs said, “The judge’s race certainly was close. There is a mathematical possibility….of recount.” Gibbs said that out of 15,269 votes cast for Sidney Municipal Court judge, there was a difference of 333 votes between Judge Duane Goettemoeller and Attorney Jeff Beigel.

Goettemoeller received 7,801 votes or 51.09 percent of the vote and Beigel received 7,468 votes or 48.91 percent of the vote.

Gibbs said that with 306 provisional votes yet to count, a recount is possible. He noted that a required recount is necessary if the vote is within 76 votes. He said if the provisional votes bring the count within the 76 votes required for a recount, “it is mathe-

From Page 1

matically possible there would be a required recount.”

In Shelby County, Gibbs said, Issue 1 failed by 65.05 percent of the vote to 34.95 percent of the vote. Issue 2 passed in Shelby County with 53.07 percent of the vote to 46.93 percent of the vote. Issue 3 passed by 77.16 percent of the vote to 22.84 percent.

“There was quite a bit of concern about construction at the VFW,” Gibbs said. He noted that Shelby County Sheriff ’s deputies assisted voters getting in and out of the driveway as a result of construction on Wapakoneta Avenue. “The sheriff holds responsibility for election security,” Gibbs said.

Sheriff John Lenhart also told the Daily News that his deputies were present to assist with traffic at the VFW location. “There were two deputies out there.”

Gibbs said there were “some scattered equipment problems” during the election, but officials used back up equipment. “We’re fortunate here….that we can use a paper ballot.”

The Boy Scouts also provided assistance Election night. “We’re certainly appreciative of that,” Gibbs said, adding it is good experience for them.

Fairlawn Local School also served as a polling location for the first time and things apparently went smoothly.

Gibbs said he “didn’t hear a peep….and that’s good news. The superintendent out there was very helpful to the Board of Elections.”

Nov. 9, 1911 A story got into circulation in Sidney yesterday that Attorney General Hogan had rendered a decision that the bond issue by Sidney of $100,000 was illegal and void. Attorney General Hogan made no such decision. He gave a decision to the board of Public Accountants in a bond issue, but said nothing about the Sidney bond issue.

––––– The fight for membership on the city school board at yesterday’s election was quite lovely, many women appearing at the polls and voting during the day. The result shows the re-election of Dr. M.F. Hussey and Dr. A.W. Reddish, with T.W. Miller a new member of the board.

Medicines calm the

bladder muscles so that they aren’t contracting so frequently and so powerfully. Examples include Ditropan, Vesicare, Enablex, Sanctura and Detrol LA. The warning you read in the advertisement applies to people who cannot pass any urine.

Bladder retraining is a method to overcome stress incontinence without medicine. For a couple of days, keep a record of the length of time between bathroom trips.

Use the shortest interval between trips for the first week of retraining.

Go to the bathroom at that interval, regardless of whether you need to.

Then increase the interval by 15 minutes every week or two. Continue with this program until you’re able to hold off going to the bathroom for two and a half to

three hours.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I read all food labels. I notice on the list of ingredients of some foods the term “sugar alcohol.”

Does that mean it is both sugar and alcohol? If it does, a clearer warning ought to be given. — M.M. ANSWER: “Sugar alcohol” is a most unfortunate name.

These products are neither sugars nor alcohol. They’re sweeteners. Foods with sugar alcohols in them can be called sugar-free.

Sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol and lactitol are some common sugar alcohols.

If people are on a strictly limited carbohydrate diet, they divide the grams of sugar alcohol by two and add that number to their total daily consumption of carbohydrates.

––––– The Sidney High School Yellow Jackets suffered their second Miami Valley League defeat of the season at Greenville last night by the difference of a point after touchdown margin, 13 to 12. Greenville pulled the game out in the final quarter, when Managan intercepted a Sidney pass on his own two yard line and ran 98 yards to score. Both Sidney touchdowns were scored by Reinhart.

50 years Nov. 9, 1961 DEGRAFF — John Shoemaker unopposed for mayor of the village will have only two former councilmen when he takes the oath of office in January. Re-elected were Dean Linet, 143, and William Mohr, 139.

Elected as new members of the council as recorded on unofficial returns were Fred Houchin, 196, William

Stephenson, 185, Max Shultx, 160, and Ronald Frantz, 139.

––––– Michael F. Boller, son of Mr. & Mrs. Raymond E. Boller Jr., 740 N. Miami Avenue, who completed his undergraduate work at the University of Cincinnati to receive an A.B. degree, has started his first year in the College of Law of the University of Cincinnati.

25 years Nov. 9, 1986 It looks like the old flowing well in Port Jefferson might be repaired. A Flowing Well committee has been formed. Steve Butterfield of the committee reported that repairs will continue as soon as the plumber working on the well is released from the hospital.

––––– Charles Over has made an interesting purchase. The horse man bought the Orr Felt farm at the corner of SR 66 and John Rd north of Houston. He will raise standard bred horses there. The place is 144 acres. He will name it Trotter Creek Ranch.

Mr. Over will stage consignment sales if horses at the ranch. As a sideline, Mr. Over, who is a paraplegic, makes miniatures of famous race horses. His work has been purchased by the Kentucky Horse Park and the U.S. Trotters Hall of Fame.

Noise from guest bedroom leaves hosts speechless DEAR ABBY: My son invited two friends to our home for the weekend. We had never met them before, but they seemed nice.

At bedtime, the young man Dear was on the couch Abby and the girl was Abigail in our spare bedVan Buren room. In the middle of the night, I was awakened to loud lovemaking noises. They grew louder and louder, and the headboard was banging against our bedroom wall. My husband and I were mortified.

Finally, I banged on the wall and it stopped. We couldn’t believe these kids would act that way in someone’s home.

They left before breakfast, so we didn’t have to face them in the morning. What was proper here? Would it have been appropriate to knock on the bedroom door and ask the guy — or both of them — to leave?

I told my son about it the next day. He was embarrassed and apologized for his friends. What should we do if this ever happens again? — RED-FACED IN MICHIGAN DEAR RED-FACED: Unless you first required your son’s friends to sign an abstinence pledge before bedding down at your place, you were right not to have evicted them before morning. Next time, keep this from happening by having your son tip them off at bedtime that you’re light

handle a relative who seems to think your house is her own personal garage sale site? She rifles through my closets, brings out clothing, and then asks, “What can I pay you for this?” She also looks around our garage for items that are being stored and asks the same question.

She would never act this way at a friend’s home, but somehow it’s different with me.

By the way, she’s my sister. — NO SALE IN AUSTIN DEAR NO SALE: Because it’s your sister and not some nervy acquaintance, be lighthanded in your response. Smile and say, “I’m not ready to let it go, but when I am, you’ll be the first to know.” Then get her out of your closet or garage and direct the conversation elsewhere.

Smokin’ Joe dead at 67

AP Photo/Matt Rourke

PENN STATE football coach Joe Paterno leaves the Louis and Mildred Lasch Football Building on the Penn State campus in State College, Pa., Tuesday. Paterno’s support among the Penn State board of trustees was described as “eroding” Tuesday, threatening to end the 84year-old coach's career amid a child sex-abuse scandal involving a former assistant and onetime heir apparent.

Trustees’ support for Paterno eroding STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — Coach Joe Paterno is fighting for his job amid “eroding” support from Penn State’s board of trustees and a widening sex-abuse scandal and possible cover-up centered on former assistant and onetime heir apparent Jerry Sandusky.

Paterno’s regularly scheduled news conference was abruptly canceled Tuesday by a university spokesman who cited “ongoing legal circumstances,” a reference to charges announced over the weekend that Sandusky molested eight young boys between 1994 and 2009, and that two PSU administrators who have since resigned failed to notify authorities of a 2002 incident reported by an eyewitness.

Paterno’s son, Scott, said his father was disappointed over the decision by PSU President Graham Spanier to cancel the news conference.

Addressing reporters outside his parents’ house, Scott said Joe was prepared to answer questions about Sandusky ‚Äî who maintains he is innocent ‚Äî and further that his father plans to coach not only Satur-

day’s game against Nebraska, but for the long haul.

Late in the afternoon, Paterno stepped out of a silver sedan being driven by his wife, Sue, and headed to the team practice. At one corner of the facility, managers hastily put plywood boards over an exposed fence to block photographers’ view of the field.

Hundreds of fans, most in Penn State gear, staged a racous rally outside Paterno’s home Tuesday evening. The appeared briefly, coach thanked the crowd for coming and went inside.

“We’re always going to be Penn State,” he said. “I’m proud of you. I’ve always been proud of you. Beat Nebraska.”

He acknowledged there had been criticism of how the victims were treated by authorities. Paterno said he and his wife, Sue, would pray for the victims.

Paterno, 84, has been head coach for 46 years and part of the Penn State staff for more than six decades, and his oldschool values pervade every corner of the program.

Over that span, the Nittany Lions won two national championships, but unlike

many other Division I powerhouses, the program avoided run-ins with the NCAA. The team generates millions of dollars each year in revenues from attendance, TV rights and sponsorships, but it has stubbornly stuck with the basic white-and-blue uniforms that are now among the most recognizable in college football.

All those things have inspired pride in the region and fierce loyalty to Paterno, who is the winningest coach in Division I and one of the most respected in any sport. That lofty status, however, has been the subject of heated arguments in recent days, among students on campus, construction workers on the street and the PSU board of trustees.

A person familiar with the trustees’ discussions said support there for Paterno was “eroding,” but couldn’t gauge whether the board would take action. The same person said Spanier has also lost support ahead of Friday’s board meeting, which Gov. Tom Corbett said he plans to attend. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the subject.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Joe Frazier had to throw his greatest punch to knock down “The Greatest.”

A vicious left hook from Frazier put Muhammad Ali on the canvas in the 15th round in March 1971 when he became the first man to beat him in the Fight of the Century at Madison Square Garden.

“That was the greatest thing that ever happened in my life,” Frazier said.

It was his biggest night, one that would never come again.

The relentless, undersized heavyweight ruled the division as champion, then spent a lifetime trying to fight his way out of Ali’s shadow.

Frazier, who died Monday night after a brief battle with liver cancer at the age of 67, will forever be associated with Ali. No one in boxing would ever dream of anointing Ali as The Greatest unless he, too, was linked to Smokin’ Joe. “I will always remember Joe with respect and admiration,” Ali said in a statement.

“My sympathy goes out to his family and loved ones.”

They fought three times, twice in the heart of New York City and once in the morning in a steamy arena in the Thrilla in Manila in the Philippines. They went 41 rounds together. Neither gave an inch and both gave it their all.

In their last fight in Manila in 1975, they traded punches with a fervor that seemed unimaginable among heavyweights. Frazier gave almost as good as he got for 14 rounds, then had to be held back by trainer Eddie Futch as he tried to go out for the final round, unable to see.

“Closest thing to dying that I know of,” Ali said afterward.

Ali was as merciless with Frazier out of the ring as he was inside it. He called him a gorilla, and mocked him as an Uncle Tom. But he respected him as a fighter, especially after Frazier won a decision to defend his heavyweight title against the then-unbeaten Ali in a fight that was so big Frank Sinatra was shooting pictures at ringside and both fighters earned an astonishing $2.5 million.

The night at the Garden 40 years ago remained fresh in

IN THIS undated file photo, boxer Joe Frazier poses for a photo. Frazier, the former heavyweight champion who handed Muhammad Ali his first defeat yet had to live forever in his shadow, has died after a brief final fight with liver cancer. He was 67.

Frazier’s mind as he talked about his life, career and relationship with Ali a few months before he died.

“I can’t go nowhere where it’s not mentioned,” he told The Associated Press.

Bob Arum, who once promoted Ali, said he was saddened by Frazier’s passing.

“He was such an inspirational guy. A decent guy. A man of his word,” Arum said.

“I’m torn up by Joe dying at this relatively young age. I can’t say enough about Joe.” Frazier’s death was announced in a statement by his family, who asked to be able to grieve privately and said they would announce “our father’s homecoming celebration” as soon as possible.

Manny Pacquiao learned of it shortly after he arrived in Las Vegas for his fight Saturday night with Juan Manuel Marquez. Like Frazier in his prime, Pacquiao has a powerful left hook that he has used in his remarkable run to stardom.

“Boxing lost a great champion, and the sport lost a great ambassador,” Pacquiao said.

Don King, who promoted the Thrilla in Manila, was described by a spokesman as too upset to talk about Frazier’s death.

OSU’s Fickell says Two Lehman players JoePa a ‘great man’ named to All-Ohio team

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — What’s brewing with the 2011 Ohio State Buckeyes ...

BUCKEYES BUZZ: There were reports that Penn State was clearing the way to push Joe Paterno out as head coach in the wake of a sordid sex case involving a former Nittany Lions assistant coach and young boys he took in through his charity.

Ohio State interim coach Luke Fickell was asked twice to comment on the situation.

First, he declined to say anything. Then, after being told that the New York Times was reporting Paterno was on his way out, Fickell responded.

“I don’t know. I’m not going to comment a lot on the Penn State stuff,” he said. “Obviously, he has had an unbelievable career. I haven’t read about it. It’s probably speculation. It would be nothing more than a speculation if I said anything.”

Then he concluded with: “Great program, great man, and I’ll just leave it at that.”

REGRETS: Fickell apologized to Ohio State’s marching band at the top of his

Tuesday news conference.

“I’m not sure when we were supposed to come out there at halftime, but it was hard to keep them (the players) in the locker room,” he said. “The band was still playing. They said not until 3 1-2 minutes (on the clock). We needed to get back out there, a little bit more time to loosen up. If we kind of messed it up, I’ll take the blame for that. I’m not sure anything was said as of yet, but I apologize for that.”

INJURY UPDATE: TB Dan “Boom” Herron, who twisted an ankle, is moving around better and is expected to be fine for the game Saturday at Purdue (noon). Jordan Hall (sprained ankle) is still questionable. And RT J.B. Shugarts, who left the field with help after sustaining a knee injury, is still being evaluated.

Another player who had to be helped on the field was QB Braxton Miller.

Miller missed portions of his final two seasons at Huber Heights Wayne HS because of injuries. But Fickell said he would be fine.

Two players from regional f i n a l i s t Lehman were named to the All-Ohio Division IV Volleyball Team, announced recently by the Thobe Ohio High School Volleyball Coaches Association.

Junior setter Andrea Thobe was named to the first team, and junior middle hitter Ellie Waldsmith to the third team after they led the Lady Cavs to another outstanding season that didn’t end until the regional championship game.

Riverside standout Tory Thompson, the District 9 Player of the Year, was named to the second team. She’s a senior middle hitter.

There were also two players from Marion Local named.

Margaret Wuebker, a senior middle hitter, and Claire Heitkamp, a junior outside hitter, were named to the first and second teams, respectively.

Browns hurting after beatdown in Texas BEREA, Ohio (AP) — His knees wrapped and other body parts undoubtedly aching from a Texas-sized beatdown witnessed by family and friends, Colt McCoy walked slowly to his locker.

Every step looked painful, every movement deliberate.

Before retrieving a few belongings from his cubicle and slinging a duffel bag over his shoulder, Cleveland’s secondyear quarterback, who has proven his toughness but done little else to show he’s the longterm answer for the Browns, was asked if he was sore.

“I’ll be all right,” he promised.

The Browns may need more recovery time.

One day after a 30-12 thumping in Houston by the Texans, who thoroughly dominated Cleveland in every phase of the game, the Browns began picking up the pieces from a loss that only counted as one on their record, but seemed to carry greater weight.

Houston outgained, outmuscled, outschemed and outclassed Cleveland.

Simply, the Browns were blown out.

“We all know what we can do,” said linebacker Scott Fujita, part of a defense that gave up 261 yards rushing. “But starting with me. I didn’t play well enough to help this team win, and collectively as a whole team, we didn’t do enough things to win this game.

“It’s frustrating. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it.

The effort was there, but the execution certainly wasn’t.”

There was plenty of blame to pass around as Cleveland, which trailed 14-0 before taking its second offensive snap, lost for the fourth time in five weeks. And this one followed the same pattern as the club’s previous two road games, when the Browns made an early mistake and

CLEVELAND BROWNS quarterback Colt McCoy (12) talks with head coach Pat Shurmur after throwing an incomplete pass during the fourth quarter of an NFL football game on Sunday in Houston. The Texans defeated the Browns 30-12. never recovered.

After Houston scored on its opening drive, Browns running back Chris Ogbonnaya, making his first career start and playing only because starters Peyton Hillis and Montario Hardesty are out with injuries, fumbled on Cleveland’s first play from scrimmage and Houston recovered.

Two minutes later, the Texans led 14-0. It may as well have been 140-0.

With no running game and a passing attack lacking much bite, points have been at a premium for the Browns, who have been outscored 58-6 in the first quarter and 90-15 in the first and third quarters combined.

That’s only one of the many problems facing first-year coach Pat Shurmur, who continues to preach patience to a Cleveland fan base tired of hearing that same message year after year.

During his weekly news conference, Shurmur usually spends a few moments — win or lose — accentuating some of the positives from Sunday’s game.

This week was different.

There wasn’t much to brag about.

“We need to be better,” Shurmur said. “I guess what you take from having worked through tough situations is you keep battling, and that’s the message. I’m sure

you’re all getting tired of hearing me say that, but that’s just the reality of it. It’s like the diet that doesn’t sell: Eat less and exercise more.

“In football, you keep working.”

There’s much to be addressed and little time to fix it all as the Browns prepare for this Sunday’s game against the St. Louis Rams, whose offense Shurmur knows well after spending two seasons as their coordinator before he was hired in Cleveland.

Atop Shurmur’s to-do list is patching up a defense that has allowed 435 yards rushing the past two weeks. The Browns thought they were ready for Houston’s zone-blocking schemes, but the Texans’ offensive line pushed Cleveland’s defensive front wherever it wanted.

Then there’s protecting McCoy, who won’t be able to handle many more poundings like he took Sunday.

He was blasted like a pinata at a birthday party by the Texans, who sacked him four times, hit him another eight and had McCoy’s parents biting their nails each time their son dropped back to pass.

“We need to block ‘em better than we did yesterday,” said Shurmur, who insisted the Browns had the proper protections called but just failed to execute them.
