was interesting.” Another associate said, “it was pretty crazy. They (Walmart) didn’t have enough parking space.” She said customers had to park as far away as Aldi’s, Applebees restaurant and the back of the Walmart building. “I heard there were people fighting over towels, games,” the associate said. “I never saw it that bad.” The store was offering a special deal on bath towels as part of its Black Friday promotion. “Today (Friday) has calmed down a lot.” Reportedly in another incident during the chaos, a man allegedly knocked down a little girl, who in turn punched the man in the face. The name of the man and the little girl are unknown. The child was believed to be about 6 years old. At the Piqua Walmart, where Sidney residents were also on hand, the store was full of anxious shoppers who quickly circled around the items they were interested in. Shortly
Many Black Friday shoppers approached the annual event locally like children anxious to open gifts on Christmas morning, grabbing at packages, while others treated it like some sort of athletic event. The Black Friday sales got off to an early start this year, with stores like Walmart starting their sales at 10 p.m. on Thanksgiving night. By then, shoppers were ready to focus on something other than pumpkin pie, and cars filled the parking lot at Walmart and other stores with shoppers looking for bargains. At Walmart in Sidney and Piqua, shoppers reacted in a variety of ways, including reports of things getting a little out of control. At the Sidney Walmart, two associates, who spoke anonymously, told the Sidney Daily News about their experiences. A Walmart manager was not available to speak. “I was amazed at how they acted, mostly the younger ones,” one Walmart associate said. “It See BLACK FRIDAY/Page 2
Sharp elbows: Shoppers scuffle on Black Thursday BY MAE ANDERSON Associated Press A shopper in Los Angeles pepper-sprayed her competition for an Xbox and scuffles broke out elsewhere around the U.S. as bargain-hunters crowded malls and big-box stores in an earlier-than-usual start to the madness known as Black Friday. For the first time, chains such as Target, Best Buy and Kohl’s opened their doors at midnight on the most anticipated shopping day of the year. Toys R Us opened for the second straight year on Thanksgiving itself. And some shoppers arrived with sharp elbows. On Thanksgiving night, a Walmart in Los Angeles brought out a crate of discounted Xboxes, and as a crowd waited for the video game players to be unwrapped, a woman fired pepper spray at the other shoppers “in order to get an advantage,” police said. Ten people suffered cuts and bruises in the chaos, and 10 others had minor injuries from the spray, authorities See SHOPPERS/Page 5
Biden’s 2012 targets include Ohio BY JULIE PACE Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — A year from Election Day, Democrats are crafting a campaign strategy for Vice President Joe Biden that targets the big three political battlegrounds: Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Florida, states where Biden might be more of an asset to President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign than the president himself. The Biden plan underscores an uncomfortable reality for the Obama team. A shaky economy and sagging enthusiasm among Democrats could shrink the electoral map for Obama in 2012, forcing his campaign to depend on carrying the 67 electoral votes up for grabs in the three swing states. Obama won all three states in 2008. But this time he faces challenges in each, particularly in Ohio and Florida, where voters elected Republican governors in the 2010 midterm elections.
The president sometimes struggles to connect with Ohio and Pennsylvania’s white working-class voters, and Jewish voters who make up a core constituency for Florida Democrats and view him with skepticism. Biden has built deep ties to both groups during his four decades in national politics, connections that could make a difference. As a long-serving member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Biden cemented his reputation as an unyielding supporter of Israel, winning the respect of many in the Jewish community. And Biden’s upbringing in a working class, Catholic family from Scranton, Pa., gives him a valuable political intangible: He empathizes with the struggles of blue-collar Americans because his family lived those struggles. “Talking to blue-collar voters is perhaps his greatest attribute,” said Dan Schnur, a Republican political analyst.

Shelter open house successful The Shelby County Animal Shelter’s first open house was a success and resulted in new homes for dogs and cats and new volunteers for the facility. Shelby County Sheriff John Lenhart announced that the open house, held on Nov. 19, was a big success with 75 visitors from Shelby County and surrounding counties attending the event. Lenhart stated that a record number of dogs and cats were adopted during the event and four residents have agreed to serve as volunteers at the shelter. During the event, more than $200 was donated to help the animal shelter and the shelter is continuing to accept donations and is looking for more volunteers. Door prizes were awarded during the open house. “We had a great response. Volunteers walked in the parade and helped clean up for Saturday’s open house.The good people at Flint’s donated a television for our use in displaying a computerized program and the news media provided us great coverage, too. It was a great event,” Lenhart said. See SHELTER/Page 3

before 10 p.m., shoppers became impatient and began pulling items from boxes in spite of warnings from an employee to stop. Shoppers were allowed to go ahead and get the items. Nathanael and Amanda Garrett, of Sidney, took their children and went to the Sidney Walmart to participate in the event Thursday night. It was the first time the couple participated in Black Friday and they said it will be the last. “There was people throwing movies and cardboard in the air,” Amanda said. Amanda said she heard there was a “fist fight over bath towels” and she noted, “you could not move. It was eye-opening.” For her children, it was terrifying. The children, who are ages 5, 4 and 2, were afraid of the chaos. “We had our kids with us … they were scared, they were crying.” “We were looking at $1.96 movies. We got what we wanted,” Amanda said. Amanda has learned her lesson. “No children” should be allowed at Black Friday events, she said. Jodi Bane, of Houston, said
From Page 1
she waited for the chaos to end. “I wait till usually the night of (Black Friday)” and she said she gets “pretty good deals.” Bane said her decision to avoid Black Friday morning was due to being injured during the event at a Walmart in Greenville. “When I lived in Darke County, I got hit in the eye with a Barbie doll,” she said. “I decided not to do it any more. It got too violent.” At Peeples, Rebecca Broerman, manager, said, “It went real good. I was impressed.” She noted there was a line of customers waiting. “They were lined up at 5:30 a.m. We opened at 6.” Broerman said customers were “friendly” and there were no problems. “Our Columbia jacket was our big seller. They were $21.99 and now they’re $34.99” through Monday. Broerman said another big seller was a set of zebra luggage that sold for $19.99 with a fragrance purchase, which sold out. Patti Boshears, Fashion Bug manager, said her store opened at 3 a.m. “We’ve been pretty steady all
day,” she said. “They’re … looking for the best sales … that’s what their main concern is.” Boshears said customers were “very nice … . I didn’t have a problem with anybody.” Fashion Bug sales continue through the weekend, with Skechers shoes selling for $25 today. They are normally $49.99 as part of a one-day offer. Other items will include buy-one, getone-free tops and everything else 40 percent off. Boshears was up at 1:30 a.m. to be at the store. “We’d like to thank the community for their support,” Boshears said. At Staples, Dominic Knepper said the store opened at 6 a.m. to a crowd lined up outside. “We had three or four different laptops, the speakers for $20,” he said. But he said, the Kindle Fire “we were completely sold out of.” There is a waiting list for those wanting that item. Today, shoppers can find a Toshiba Thrive tablet for $349 and an Asus laptop for $649 at Staples. Doors will open at 9 and sales continue through 7 p.m.

Ohio ends plan to collect old welfare overpayments
AP Photo/Akron Beacon Journal, Ed Suba Jr.
LAW ENFORCEMENT officials work at a crime scene on Harlem Road in Akron, where a body was found on Friday. The FBI is investigating whether the body found Friday in a shallow grave is a second killing connected to a phony Craigslist job ad that authorities say lured victims into a deadly robbery scheme.
COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio has decided to kill a much-derided plan to collect accidental welfare overpayments going back to at least 1985, a top official said Thursday. Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services Director Michael Colbert said the state is returning to its previous policy of collecting debts up to 10 years old. However, he said, the state would only go after overpayments resulting from fraud not from a mistake on the state’s part.
“It’s not the time now to go back 20 years, unless it’s a fraudulent situation,” he said. “If it’s not fraud, we don’t need to go back to very vulnerable people who might be trying to make a transition. Logistically, it is very hard to track.” The decision was made in late 2010 to extend the collection period for state welfare overpayments indefinitely to mirror a change made by the federal government. At the time, Colbert was the department’s
chief fiscal officer. But he said he was not consulted about the decision. He later was appointed head of the department when Gov. John Kasich took office. “We think it (the decision to collect old overpayments indefinitely) impacts a very vulnerable population, and my position is this population doesn’t need this as public policy,” Colbert said. The decision to extend the collection period was widely criticized by advo-
cates for the poor. It mostly affected Ohioans making 70 percent of the federal poverty level, or about $400 a month. Colbert said his department realized the 2010 change was in effect when residents started calling his office about it. He said the department’s automated system started sending letters three to four weeks ago. The change to extend the collection period was put into the computer in 2010, he said.

“Obama provides the speeches, and Biden provides the blue-collar subtitles.” While Biden’s campaign travel won’t kick into high gear until next year, he’s already been making stops in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida this fall, speaking at events focused on education, public safety and small businesses and raising campaign cash. Behind the scenes, he’s working the phones with prominent Jewish groups and Catholic organizations in those states, a Democratic official said. Biden is also targeting organized labor, speaking frequently with union leaders in Ohio ahead of a vote earlier this month on a state law that would have curbed collective bargaining rights for public workers. After voters struck down the measure, Biden traveled to Cleveland to celebrate the victory with union members. The Democratic official said the vice president will also be a frequent visitor to Iowa and New Hampshire in the coming weeks, seeking to steal some of the spotlight from the Republican presidential can-
didates blanketing those states ahead of the January caucus and primary. And while Obama may have declared that he won’t be commenting on the Republican presidential field until there’s a nominee, Biden is following no such rules. He’s calling out GOP candidates by name, and in true Biden style, he appears to be relishing in doing so. During a speech last month to the Florida Democratic Convention, Biden singled out “Romney and Rick”, criticizing former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney for saying the government should let the foreclosure crisis hit rock bottom, and hammering Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s assertion that he would send U.S. troops into Mexico. And he took on the full GOP field during an October fundraiser in New Hampshire, saying “There is no fundamental difference among all the Republican candidates.” Democratic officials said Biden will follow in the long-standing tradition of vice presidents playing the role of attack dog, allowing Obama to stay out of the fray and ap-
pear more focused on governing than campaigning. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity in order to discuss internal strategy. The Obama campaign has been reluctant to publically define Biden’s role in the re-election bid this early in the run, though campaign manager Jim Messina did say the vice president would deliver an economic message to appeal for support. “You’ll see him in communities across the country next year laying out the choice we face: restoring economic security for the middle class or returning to the same policies that led to our economic challenges,” Messina said. Democrats say Biden will campaign for House candidates in swing states
as the party tries to recapture some of the seats in Congress lost during the 2010 midterms. And here again, the vice president’s efforts in politically crucial Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida could be most important. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is targeting 12 districts in those states that Obama and Biden carried in the 2008 presidential race but are represented by Republican representatives. New York Rep. Steve Israel, who chairs the committee, said he believes Biden could be a “game-changer” in those districts. “All he has to do is ask voters, has the Republican strategy of no worked for you?” Israel said.

Different messages WASHINGTON (AP) — Large and small companies have told Republicanled congressional committees what the party wants to hear: dire predictions of plant closings and layoffs if the Obama administration succeeds with plans to further curb air and water pollution. But their message to financial regulators and investors conveys less gloom and certainty. The administration itself has clouded the picture by withdrawing or postponing some of the environmental initiatives that industry labeled as being among the most onerous.
Little planes phased out MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The little planes that connect America’s small cities to the rest of the world are slowly being phased out. Airlines are getting rid of these planes — their least-efficient — in response to the high cost of fuel. Delta, United Continental, and other big airlines are expected to park, scrap or sell hundreds of jets with 50 seats or fewer in coming years. Small propeller planes are meeting the same fate. The loss of those planes is leaving some little cities with fewer flights or no flights at all.
Running out of time ROME (AP) — A week into his new job, Premier Mario Monti is running out of time to reassure nervous investors that his government has a strategy to deal with Italy’s crippling debts. The nation’s borrowing rates skyrocketed Friday after a grim set of bond auctions, with a new auction looming Tuesday. Another borrowing debacle could ratchet up fears that Italy has entered a debt spiral driving it toward bankruptcy and the 17-nation eurozone into its most acute crisis yet. Monti’s government of so-called “technocrats” is battling to convince investors that it has a successful strategy to reduce the country’s 1.9 trillion ($2.6 trillion) debt. But Friday’s dismal bond auction results for the eurozone’s third largest economy temporarily battered Europe’s stock markets.

Turkey crashes into restaurant PENN HILLS, Pa. (AP) — A wild turkey smashed through a plate glass window at an empty western Pennsylvania restaurant and ended up where millions of its fellow gobblers did on Thanksgiving: a dining room. Penn Hills police Officer Bernard Sestili tells the WTAE-TV the feathered fowl didn't survive impact when it barreled into the dining room of the Eat'n Park in Penn Hills on Thursday afternoon. The restaurant was closed at the time. Sestili says he responded when the building's alarm went off. He suspects the turkey may have been roosting in a nearby tree when it “got up this morning and went for his morning flight and flew into the window." Penn Hills is about 10 miles outside Pittsburgh.

Egypt’s military under pressure BY SARAH EL DEEB Associated Press CAIRO (AP) — The U.S. increased pressure Friday on Egypt’s military rulers to hand over power to civilian leaders, and the generals turned to a Mubarak-era politician to head a new government in a move that failed to satisfy the more than 100,000 protesters who jammed Tahrir Square in the biggest rally yet this week. The demonstrators rejected the appointment of Kamal elGanzouri as prime minister, breaking into chants of “Illegitimate! Illegitimate!” and setting up a showdown between the two sides only three days before key parliamentary elections. The size of the rally and the resilience of protesters in the face of the violence used by security forces in this week’s deadly street battles have won back for the movement much of the strength it projected during the 18-day uprising that ousted President Hosni Mubarak in February. Showing the sort of resolve from the earliest days of the Arab Spring, the protesters say they will not leave the iconic square until the military rulers led by Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi step down and a civilian presidential council is formed to run the country until a new leader is elected. “They stole our January revolution because we did not agree on who should represent us,” said activist Sedeeqah Abu Seadah. “We shouted ‘erhal’ (leave) but did not shout the name of the person we want.” The military’s appointment of el-Ganzouri, its apology for the death of protesters and a series of partial concessions in the past two days suggest that the generals are struggling to overcome the most serious challenge to their nine-month rule, with fewer options now available to them. Significantly adding to their predicament, the Obama administration brought its position on the crisis in Egypt closer to the protesters’ demands, urging the military to fully empower the next interim civilian government. “We believe that Egypt’s transition to democracy must continue, with elections proceeding expeditiously, and all necessary measures taken to ensure security and prevent intimidation,” the White House said in a statement.

A YOUNG shopper holds an Abercrombie and Fitch shopping bag at the Park City mall in Lancaster, Pa. on Black Friday. Early signs point to bigger crowds at the nation’s malls and stores as retailers like Macy’s and Target opened their doors at midnight. Toys R Us and a few stores other stores that opened on Thanksgiving Day also were filled with shoppers.
Syrian army stands by regime SHOPPERS BY ELIZABETH A. KENNEDY Associated Prfess BEIRUT (AP) — The Syrian military vowed Friday to “cut every evil hand” that targets the country’s security, a defiant stance by the regime as it faces the possibility of sweeping economic sanctions from the Arab League. The military statement could signal darker days to come in an eight-month revolt against President Bashar Assad that is turning more violent by the day. Until recently in the uprising, most of the bloodshed came as security forces fired on mainly peaceful protests. But there have been growing reports of army defectors and armed civilians fighting Assad’s forces — a development that some say plays into the regime’s hands by giving government troops a pretext to crack down with overwhelming force. “The choice offered by the regime appears clear-cut: preservation of Assad’s rule or collective destruction,” the International Crisis Group said in a report this week. Assad blames the unrest on a foreign plot to destabilize Syria, saying extremists and terrorists — not true reformers
— are driving the calls to oust him. On Friday, the military blamed terrorists for an attack a day earlier in Homs, saying six elite pilots and four technical officers were killed in an ambush. “The general command of the armed forces sees that enemies of the country are behind this terrorist act,” the military said. “The armed forces will continue to carry out its mission … and will cut every evil hand that targets Syrian blood.” Although many Syrians resent police and intelligence agencies that they blame for oppressing the uprising, they respect the armed forces, which is seen as a bulwark against Israel. Unlike the armies of Tunisia and Egypt, Syria’s military has stood fiercely by the country’s leader as Assad faces down an extraordinary protest movement. In the past 40 years, Assad and his father before him stacked key military posts with members of their minority Alawite sect — an offshoot of Shiite Islam — ensuring the loyalty of the armed forces by melding the fate of the army and the regime. Syria is overwhelmingly Sunni Muslim.

said. The woman got away in the confusion, and it was not immediately clear whether she got an Xbox. On Friday morning, police said, two women were injured and a man was charged after a fight broke out at an upstate New York Walmart. And a man was arrested in a scuffle at a jewelry counter at a Walmart in Kissimmee, Fla. Wal-Mart, the nation’s biggest retailer, has taken steps in recent years to control its Black Friday crowds following the 2008 death of one of its workers in a stampede of shoppers. This year, it staggered its door-buster deals instead of offering them all at once. Wal-Mart spokesman Greg Rossiter said Black Friday was safe at most of its nearly 4,000 U.S., but there were “a few unfortunate incidents.” The incidents were attributed to two converging Black Friday trends: Crowds are getting bigger as stores open earlier and stay open later. At the same time, cash-strapped shoppers are competing for deals on a small number of gifts that everybody wants — tablet computers, TVs and game consoles like Xbox, Nintendo 3S and Wii. That’s a shift from years past, when there was a wider range of must-have items. “The more the people, the more the occurrences,” said Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst with market research firm The NPD Group. A record number of shoppers are expected to head out to stores across the country this weekend to take advantage of discounts of up to 70 percent. For three days starting on Black Friday, 152 million people are expected to shop, up about 10 percent from last year, according to the National Retail Federation. Thanksgiving weekend, particularly Black Friday, is huge for retailers. Over the past six years, Black Friday was the biggest sales day of the year, and it is expected to keep that crown this year, though shoppers seem to be procrastinating more every year, and the fate of the holiday season is increasingly coming down to the last few days.
Foreign student recruiters’ motives questioned BY ALAN SCHER ZAGIER Associated Press COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — As American universities welcome ever-greater numbers of international students, some professors and admissions counselors are questioning the motives of the very professionals who have helped attract so many foreign scholars to their campuses. Higher education recruiters are under fire from detractors who say they put profit ahead of students’ best interests. Critics accuse them of sending thousands of unqualified applicants to the U.S. every year, sometimes allowing students to skip basic English tests and falsify applications to make a quick commission. “The student is best served by having the widest range of information available about what might be the best fit,” said Peggy Blumenthal, an executive vice president at the not-for-profit Institute of International Education, which monitors and promotes study abroad programs. Recruiting agents “have a very large incentive to deliver a student who may not be the best fit.” A leading group of admissions counselors even proposed an outright ban on the use of international recruiters who are paid based on the number of stu-
dents they lure to the United States. College administrators who rely on recruiters are quick to defend them, saying they are more familiar with overseas customs and school systems. By using recruiters, Missouri State University leaders “can focus on developing and delivering curriculum instead of going out and recruiting students and developing individual sponsors,” said David Meinert, associate dean of the university’s business school. Recruiters are “able to deliver as an intermediary something that we would have trouble delivering.” Those efforts have contributed significantly to a sharp spike in the number of foreign students seeking an American education. A recent report by Blumenthal’s institute showed a 32 percent increase in the number of international students in the U.S. compared with a decade ago. Nearly a quarter of the students here for the 2010-11 academic year came from China. Many others hailed from India and South Korea. When Missouri State’s Springfield campus decided in 2007 to create an executive M.B.A. program for visiting Chinese students, the school realized it needed a recruiter steeped in that country’s language, culture and educational practices.
The university hired the International Management Education Center in Hong Kong under a deal that paid recruiters $10,000 to $12,000 for each graduate student. The school kept the balance of student payments ranging from $15,000 to $22,000. But some professors question the program’s academic rigor, noting participants do not take the English proficiency tests usually required of international students and frequently show up unprepared. When the same doubts that arose in Missouri spread to China, some student sponsors — a term that refers to local governments, schools corporations and other Chinese institutions — said they wanted to withdraw from the program. Earlier this year, the National Association for College Admission Counseling proposed the ban on the use of some international recruiters out of concern that unscrupulous agents were exaggerating students’ English skills and submitting falsified applications in search of a fast financial reward. Those practices introduce “an incentive for recruiters to ignore the student interest” and invite “complications involving misrepresentation, conflict of interest and fraud,” the organization’s board said in a May statement.

Cold or flu? Dear Readers: Is a it cold or the flu? Do you know the difHints f e r ence? from F l u Heloise season is here, Heloise Cruse a n d you could be a victim. Flu is spread mostly by coughing and sneezing, and by touching surfaces that hold the virus and then touching your mouth or eyes. Don’t rub your eyes! The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (www.cdc.gov) say that a flu vaccine is the best way to prevent influenza. There are two types of flu vaccines: 1. A flu shot contains the actual flu virus, but don’t worry — it’s not active and will not give you the flu. There are three varieties of shots: • The typical flu shot, which is recommended for most people, even those who are pregnant. • For those over 65, a stronger dose. • And there is a new variety this season for people 18-64 that is injected into the skin. 2. The other type of flu vaccine is a nasal spray. It is approved for healthy people who are not pregnant. Some people should not have the flu shot: people with egg allergies, infants younger than 6 months of age and people who are already ill fall into this category. Talk to your healthcare provider about the flu, the flu shot and how to protect yourself and your family. — Heloise

Honda honors suppliers ers in North America, and reflects Honda’s ongoing commitment to reduce the environmental impact of its products and operations, including its parts supply chain. “Honda encourages supplier excellence in energy reduction, pollution prevention and conservation of natural resources,” said Tom Lake, division manager of Honda’s North American Purchasing Division. “This program recognizes suppliers that benefit society by working to reduce their environmental footprint, and provides an opportunity to share best practices and environmental initiatives.” Honda’s history of presenting environmental recognitions to suppliers dates to 2002. Since then, the company’s environmental recognition programs have evolved to focus not only on recognition but also on the sharing of knowledge and ideas within the supplier base. “We evaluate each project for its innovation and transferability to other areas, in addition to the Green Factory benefits,” said Robert Bottom, staff engineer, who manages the program. “The results are twofold, both helping their operations and benefitting the environment.” All five 2011 recogni-
tion winners presented their initiatives to more than 85 suppliers attending the symposium. Nissin Brake Ohio Inc., recipient of Honda’s 2011 Corporate Citizenship Award, also provided an overview of their operations and their award-winning activities. The annual award recognizes wellrounded corporate citizens with strengths in six different areas, including ethics and compliance, health and safety, community involvement, government relations, diversity and the environment. Recognized were the following: Pollution prevention Highland Industries, Inc., Cheraw, S.C. — Highland implemented a recycling program that resulted in an 88 percent weight reduction in landfill waste. Highland supplies fabric for airbags. Delphi Delco Electronics de Mexico de R.L. de C.V. Delnorte Operations, Matamoros, Mexico — Delphi Delco Electronics began multiple recycling and source reduction activities, which have eliminated over 500,000 pounds of landfill waste. This facility supplies security electronics and immobilizers. Energy reduction Delphi Delco Electronics de Mexico de R.L. de C.V. Deltronicos
Jobs Act — A free money buzzer for small businesses? Small business owners should be planning now for how best to invest their windfall if Congress passes all the American Jobs Act incentives, said consultant Richard B. Sanford. Otherwise, they may quickly find themselves overextended. “The jobs act rightfully emphasizes freeing up money so small business owners can hire new workers,” said Sanford, author of “Success by Design” (www.ssbp.biz), a guide to simplified strategic business planning. “One of the provisions is a payroll tax holiday on up to $50 million in wages for new workers or raises for existing ones,” he said. “Businesses need to look at juicy carrots like this with a critical eye: This is a temporary tax holiday,” he said. “As proposed, it applies Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2012. But those payroll additions likely will be on the books long after the holiday ends.” Businesses should be analyzing their market and their company now for ways to expand sales income and increase profits. They should execute those steps before they hire the first new worker, Sanford said. “If they can look ahead and see a sustainable increase in income and profits with the bigger payroll, taxed at the full 6.2 percent rate, that’s a green light for hiring,” he said. Other provisions of the jobs act include up to $4,000 in tax credits for businesses that hire people who’ve been out of work for at least six months. Employers would get a tax credit of up to $5,600 for hiring a
veteran who’s been jobless for six months or longer, and up to $9,600 for hiring a vet with a service-related disability. “While those credits are enticing, keep in mind hiring is much riskier for a small business than a large one. For very small businesses, one bad hire can be disastrous,” Sanford said. “You should expect each hire to produce at least three times his or her salary in revenue. “So while giving a veteran or a long-term jobless person work is laudable, employers need to approach those hires with the same care and caution as they would if there were no incentive. To justify the long-term employee expense, these new hires must be able to provide productive services for their employer and customers.” Employers likely will also need to verify through unemployment claims how long the person has been out of work, he added. Other small business incentives in the jobless act: • Encourage businesses to invest in equipment by extending the current 100 percent expensing write-off into 2012. • Help for small busi-
Operations, Reynosa, Mexico — Through multiple energy reduction activities, Delphi Delco Electronics reduced electricity consumption by more than 3 million kWh per year, enough electricity to power 275 U.S. households. These activities included reducing power demand during nonproduction periods, the reduction of chilled water system setpoints and improved equipment utilization. This facility supplies safety system electronics and major radio components. Conservation of natural resources Aluminum Celina Precision Technology, Inc. (CAPT), Celina — Celina Aluminum re-engineered their wastewater system to allow for reuse, reducing discharge to the city sewage treatment facility by 58 percent. CAPT manufactures pistons, cylinder heads, lower blocks and brake knuckles. UGN, Inc., Somerset, Ky. — UGN is using an existing, on-site decorative pond as a heat sink to cool process water from its plastics molding operations. This reduces the use of fresh water and eliminates the need to add chillers, reducing water and electricity consumption. Annual wastewater reduction exceeds 25 million gallons, approximately 74 percent of the total generated by the facility. UGN Inc. offers a variety of materials that support acoustic automotive trim applications.
ness contractors that want to bid on infrastructure contracts and get Small Business Adsurety ministration bonds. • Make it easier for jobless people to start their own small businesses by allowing them to use unemployment insurance money for up to 26 weeks. Currently, only some states consider jobless entrepreneurs eligible for unemployment payments. This provision would allow all 50 states to establish Self-Employment Assistance programs. • Raise the cap on small businesses’ “mini” public offerings from $5 million to $50 million and reducing the costs for smaller companies to go public.
JACKSON CENTER — The village of Jackson Center took possession of the former Holloway manufacturing facility which has been donated to the village by Holloway Sportwear Inc. Holloway Sportswear reportedly donated the building as a way of assisting the village and in appreciation for the longstanding support and relationship that Holloway had with the administrators and the community in general. Holloway designs, manufactures, and markets jackets and active sportswear. Its products include outerwear, athletic uniforms, sweaters, team apparel, accessories and fanwear. They offer their products for the sporting goods, imprinted sportswear, promotional products and college book store channels. Holloway Sportswear was founded in 1941 in Jackson Center and is currently headquartered in Sidney. In 2006, Augusta Sportswear Group acquired Holloway Sportswear. It is privately held apparel company best known for making letterman jackets. In January 2010 Holloway announced it would shift the manufacturing of its wool varsity
jackets in Jackson Center to a company-owned facility in Mexico. The transition was completed in the first quarter of 2011. This was reportedly a strategic decision based on economic conditions and the volatile wool jacket market. Officials noted it was not a reflection on the dedication and contributions of the employees in the Jackson Center facility. The Village of Jackson Center reportedly did due diligence on the property before accepting the donation. This included a phase I environmental and limited phase II environmental study. The village currently plans to use the facility for storage of materials and equipment now being stored in various locations and outside due to lack of space. Village officials say this consolidation will make things more efficient for the village by having all material and equipment in one location and protected from the weather. In 2012, village officials will study if they wish to consolidate all village operations to the facility, offer the building for economic development or a combination of the two.

COLUMBUS — As part of its global initiative to reduce the impact of manufacturing on the environment, Honda presented its Green FacEnvironmental tory Achievement Recognitions to five OEM suppliers in North America that have excelled at conserving natural resources, reducing energy use and eliminating waste to landfills, including a Celina business. Two recipients dramatically reduced landfill waste by implementing recycling programs. Another saved enough electricity to power 275 households. And two implemented systems that cut water use by 58 percent and 74 percent, respectively, reducing the volume sent to municipal wastewater treatment systems by millions of gallons each year. Honda presented the recognitions during its 19th annual Environmental, Safety and Ergonomics Symposium held in Dublin. In addition to recognizing top environmental achievements, the suppliers attended seminars and roundtable sessions on environmental topics ranging from energy and waste reduction to environmental compliance. The event recognizes environmental stewardship among Honda’s nearly 600 OEM suppli-

Speaker tells of Ohio industrial sites CELINA — Greg Myers discussed the “Beyond Shovel Ready” program of the West Central Ohio Industrial Center when he spoke recently at a meeting of Auglaize/Mercer the Women in Networking Business Association. The state of Ohio created its “Job Ready Sites Program” in 2005 to develop an inventory of shovel-ready industrial sites throughout the state to support the attraction of manufacturing and technical jobs,he said. The West Central Ohio Industrial Center in Wapakoneta was awarded one of Ohio’s first Job Ready Sites grants and certifications as a manufacturing location. Angela Hamberg discussed the JobsOhio Network. In January 2011, Mark Kvamm was appointed director of the Ohio Department of Development by Governor John R. Kasich, she said. The goal of JobsOhio is to revive the state’s ailing economy by privatizthe state’s ing development efforts and identifying and removing barriers to create and sustain jobs. Jared Ebbing discussed the recent retention survey of local companies, in which local companies, owners and supervisors rated the workforce attendance, retention and productivity as excellent. Workers in the region have an extremely
strong work ethic and dedication, he said. Strong sense of community, education and logistics also ranked high in Mercer County according to this survey. Some of the minuses in Mercer County are the lack of skilled labor, health care, regulation, uncertaininy and Workers Compensation regulations. Similar trends were found for other counties in the region, it was reported. The Auglaize/Mercer Women in Business Networking Association meets on the second Thursday of every month and rotates meeting locations throughout the area. The Dec. 8 meeting will be the holiday meeting and will be at the Wayne Street Methodist United Church at 130 N. Wayne St., St. Marys, at 11:30 a.m. Attendees are asked to take something warm to donate (socks, blankets, slippers, hats, gloves, sweats, pajamas, etc.) for the project, “Warm Hand and Warm Hearts.” The group give items to the Auglaize County Crisis Center and Sources. The Memorial High School Glitter and Gold will perform, and the WIB Continuing Education Scholarship will be awarded. There are no membership charges. Monthly meetings are $12 and by reservation.

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 Sunday, Nov. 27, 2011 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a marvelous day to travel anywhere, especially to a foreign country, and especially with others. It’s also a great day to explore opportunities in publishing, the media, medicine and the law. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is a great day to ask for a loan or mortgage, or to borrow something from someone else. You definitely can benefit from the wealth of others. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Relations with partners and close friends are mutually generous and happy today. This is a wonderful day, even for dealing with members of the general public. Enjoy! CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Everything that is work-related will go extremely well today. Group activities are favored. Work-related travel is also a positive experience. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Romance, love affairs, sports, playful times with children and anything having to do with parties and vacations are beautifully blessed today.This is the perfect day to party! VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) What a wonderful day for real estate deals. It’s also a great day to entertain at home. Invite the gang over for good food and drink. Happy times are here. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You’re in such a positive state of mind, it will enhance your ability to write, sell, 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 Monday, Nov. 28, 2011 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Play it low-key today. This is a poor day to ask bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs for a favor. Their reply likely will be, “Talk to the hand.” (Save your breath.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Travel plans and anything that has to do with higher education, medicine, the law, publishing and the media are discouraging today. Don’t let this get you down. Things look better later in the week. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) This is a poor day to divide or share something with someone else. People are tightfisted today. Knowing this ahead of time, why pursue this kind of thing? CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Postpone important discussions with partners and close friends. People are moody or grouchy. Cut others some slack — they’ll be very grateful to you. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Work alone or behind the scenes today, because getting cooperation from others won’t be easy. People in authority are particularly restricting. Oh dear. (It’s one of those days.) VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is not a good day for important family discussions. People will just rain on your parade, especially older relatives or parents. Keep your head down and your powder dry. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
market, teach or act. You can’t go wrong! SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) This is an excellent day for business and commerce. Look for ways to make profits and boost your income. Even shopping will yield items that prove profitable in the future. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a wonderful, friendly day. Enjoy the company of others, because they will certainly enjoy being in your presence. You feel warm-hearted and generous to everyone. (Would that life were always this easy.) CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) If you can help someone in need, you certainly will. It’s easy to put the interests of others before your own today because you feel so generous. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) All group activities are wonderfully blessed today! Team sports, classes, groups, small meetings or large conferences will be wonderful experiences for you today. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You can put your name up in lights today. People are impressed with you. In fact, romance with a boss or someone richer or older might begin. YOU BORN TODAY You are fast and impulsive. You respond to stimuli quickly. Because of this, you generate excitement around you. Nevertheless, you focus your energy with enormous determination. You value family and close friendships. You respond to others instinctively. You need freedom of action to be happy. In the year ahead, you will learn something valuable for your future. Your rewards soon will follow! Birthdate of: Caroline Kennedy, editor/attorney; Jimi Hendrix, musician; Bruce Lee, martial artist/actor. Don’t fall into pessimism or worry mode today, although it’s easy to do. “Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.” SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) It’s easy to feel broke today.There’s no money left. (Join the club — we number millions. Hey, we’ve got jackets.) Things look much better later in the week. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) It’s important for you to stay optimistic and active. Today, however, is a pessimistic day. Just accept this and move on (like you haven’t been here before). CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You might feel lonely and cut off from others. Don’t worry about this, because the next several days are completely different. Courage. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Someone older might be discouraging today. Give this little thought, and don’t listen to this person. Later this week, you have a totally new perspective on things. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Relations with bosses, parents, teachers and authority figures are a bit grim today. Don’t ask for permission for anything. Give these people a wide berth. YOU BORN TODAY Without question, you’re an independent thinker who is intellectually profound. You seek the answers to big questions. You have an excellent sense of humor and a dry wit. Your opinions change quickly and drastically, but you always defend your point of view. You are a caring person. Your year ahead might be one of the most powerful years of your life. Dream big! Birthdate of: Jon Stewart, satirist/TV host; Rita Mae Brown, author; Ryan Kwanten, actor.

I am 61, and for the past year since I have been retired, I have been engaged in more consistent exercise. For the past six months my routine has consisted of three or four Zumba toning classes per week, with one or two of these sessions incorporating the use of shake weights. On one or two other days I walk outdoors or on a treadmill, usually three or four miles at about 4.5 miles per hour. I have a variety of exercise equipment (medicine ball, bands, etc.) and do some exercises culled from fitness and health magazines. I understand the benefit of exercise in terms of bone density and cardiovascular fitness and have
Nov. 26, 1911 This morning the seniors, assisted by two pupils of the freshman class, gave a very interesting and entertaining program in the auditorium of the high school building. The selection given by Amanda Steinkemper and Grace Woodruff of the freshman class, were highly enjoyed by all. Others appearing on the program included: Harvey Hoewischer, Arlene Lonsbury, Ruth Wyatt, Herman Schlagetter, Robert Martin, Helen Sexauer, Carol Clark, and Bertha Boyer. ––––– At St. Paul’s Evangelical church a German Thanksgiving service will be held tomorrow morning at 10 o’clock. A quartet under the leadership of Miss Friedman will sing a beautiful selection. An invitation is extended to those interested and able to understand the German language to attend.
seen some weight loss and improved firmness. I wonder how “toned” one can realistically expect to get at my age. — M.C. ANSWER: A 60-yearold cannot expect to see the same results as an 18year-old. How many 40plus professional athletes are still active in their sports? Not many. Age takes a toll, and age slows the body’s ability to make adjustments and grow. It’s possible to make remarkable improvements, even in the 90s. It’s been proven that 90-year-olds increase their muscle strength through weightlifting. The changes seen in young people who devote long gym sessions to muscle-building are not going to take place. In youth, muscle-building hormones are at their peak levels. As far as aerobic exercise goes, older people can make great gains in promoting heart health, reducing blood pressure and getting rid of body fat.
Nov. 26, 1936 The 19th annual meeting of the Shelby County Farm Bureau will be held in the K. of P. hall on Dec. 2, from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. A program of interest to every farm family in Shelby has been County arranged. Lunch will be served by the ladies of the K. of P. at a cost of 35 cents per person.

Baseore. ––––– CAPE CANAVERAL — The United States rocketed a little chimpanzee named “Enos” into orbit today and sent him whirling two times around the globe before
technical difficulties developed and the space cabin was returned to earth. The capsule landed 500 miles south of Bermuda at 1:28 p.m. EST. The chimp was safe, Project Mercury officials said.
25 years Nov. 26, 1986 It is looking like there will be sex education classes in local our schools. There is a recommendation from the Ohio Department of Education for such classes. The driver is the high rate of teen pregnancy. In the city of Cleveland, 20% of all births are to unwed teens. About $1 million will be allocated to these programs during the first year, followed by $3 million in the second year. The money will be spend to identify those at risk and plan programs to assist them. ––––– It is official. There will be no Fun Center in Sidney. City Council took up the matter and voted 4-1 to uphold the action of the zoning board. Councilman Merrill Asher voted in favor of the new business. Michael R. Schaffer, a partner in the new venture, stated that a miniature golf course, a game room and the sale of ice cream was planned for the site at the corner of Wapak Avenue and Northwood Drive. ––––– These news items from past issues of the Sidney Daily News are compiled by the Shelby County Historical Society (498-1653) as a pubservice to the lic community.

It has been rocky over the past few years, and I recently had an affair with a married man. I have fallen madly in love with him, and every night I dream about being with him instead of with my husband. We’re both in unhappy marriages and both have children. He’s worried that if he gets divorced he won’t be able to see his kids as often as he wants. Should I forget him and try to fall back in love with my husband? Everyone I talk to about this
says my lover has been what I needed to recognize that I wasn’t happy in my marriage and that I deserve better. I know I deserve better because I worshipped the ground my husband walked on for many years and got treated like crud. What do I do? — DOWNTRODDEN WIFE IN OKLAHOMA. DEAR DOWNTRODDEN: Since you’re collecting advice, I don’t mind throwing in my twocents’ worth. Your lover doesn’t appear eager to leave his family, so do the best thing for both of you and end the affair. As to whether you should try to fall back in love with a man who “treated you like crud,” sometimes divorce can be therapeutic. And from the description you gave me of your marriage, you could benefit from seeking one and
swearing off men for a while. DEAR ABBY: Four years ago my best friend’s mother lost her husband after a battle with cancer. She joined a grief support group and met a man who had lost his wife to cancer, too. Love blossomed and they will be married soon. Everyone is thrilled they have found each other. Along with a wedding gift, would it be appropriate to make a donation to a cancer charity in memory of their deceased spouses? I would like to honor the struggle that led the couple to each other, but don’t want to offend. What do you think? — DEVOTED FRIEND IN KENTUCKY DEAR DEVOTED FRIEND: I think you have come up with a beautiful idea that will be deeply appreciated, and you should do it.

Young hunters enjoy successful deer hunt
Her first deer Jessica Hand, 20, of Sidney, displays the large 8-point buck she bagged with the compound bow from a tree stand in Darke County recently. This was her first deer in three years of hunting.
Big shakeup in ODNR BY JEFFREY L. FRISCHKORN AP Exchange Ohio Gov. John Kasich has undertaken a seismic shift in power within the Natural Resources Department, playing either a great game of political musical chairs or Russian Roulette with the agency. He has brought in former director of the Ohio Department of Agriculture Jim Zehringer as the agency’s new director. In turn, Zehringer towed along two of his associates: Andy Ware and Frederick Shrimp. Zehringer replaces Scott Zody, who served as interim Natural Resources Director when former Natural Resources Department director David Mustine left to take a position with a quasi-governmental group that is promoting energy development in Ohio. Now Zody has become the latest chief of the Ohio Division of Wildlife, replacing David Lane, who has been demoted to assistant chief of that agency and is in charge of Wildlife’s five district offices. Zody said the moves were natural fits, even though he becomes the
first non-Wildlife Division official to ascend to the chief’s post. According to Zody, the repositioning of Lane has nothing to do with his short tenure as the Wildlife Division’s chief. “There’s been a little bit of a shakeup here, but things are going well,” Zody said. “Really, both the governor and the new director thought the best role for me would be in Wildlife. I’m looking forward to a more narrowed area of responsibility and the new challenges.” Tom Rowan, a former state wildlife officer assigned to Lake County, remains as the Wildlife Division’s assistant chief in charge of law enforcement, fisheries and wildlife. And Sue Howard, who had been the Wildlife Division’s other assistant chief, now becomes the agency’s business operations manager, responsible for human affairs, fiscal responsibilities and marketing the Wildlife Division. She relinquishes the role of managing the five district offices to Lane. “We still have a mission to do: Support the director and chief and make them proud,” Rowan said.
As for Ware, this is not his first stint within the Natural Resources Department. He was once an agency spokesman, became the assistant chief for the Division of Forestry and eventually transferred to the Agricultural Department. Now he is back in the Natural Resources Department, where he will oversee not only Forestry but also the Division of Geological Survey and several other agencies. Meanwhile, Shrimp will concern himself with the day-to-day operations of the Natural Resources Department. The sum of Zehringer’s Natural Resources Department experience includes a stint as a state representative, a livestock raiser and commercial fish hatchery owner. This change will do nothing to quiet the rumors the Natural Resources Department will be enrolled within the Agricultural Department along with the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency. If anything the changes only heighten the possibility, though Zody said Kasich is now on the hunt to appoint a new Agriculture Department director.

COLUMBUS — Young hunters across Ohio enjoyed success during the eighth annual Youth Deer-Gun Season, held Saturday and Sunday, November 19-20, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR), Division of Wildlife. Hunters aged 17 and under, harvested 8,681 deer during the special two-day season, as compared to 8,445 last year.

Division of The Wildlife estimated 60,000 young hunters took to the state's fields and forests during the two-day season, which provides a high-quality hunting experience for younger Ohioans. The youth deer-gun season was open in all 88 counties. All participants were required to wear hunter orange, possess a valid Ohio hunting license and deer permit, and be accompanied by a non-hunting adult. The youth deer-gun season is one of four special youth-only hunting seasons designed to offer a safe and excellent early hunting experience for young hunters. Special days are also set aside for upland game, wild turkey, and waterfowl hunting opportunities. Youngsters and all other hunters will have a chance at taking a whitetail during next week's statewide deergun season, which runs Monday through Sunday, November 28-December 4.

Defending champs roll on Anna beats New Knoxville in opener NEW BREMEN — The defending Division III state champion Anna Lady Rockets picked right up where they left off last season, dominating a good New Knoxville team over the final two quarters to post a 56-37 victory in the first game of the annual New Bremen Tip-Off Tournament here Friday in girls basketball. Anna, the defending champions of the tournament, will take on New Bremen tonight in the second game. New Knoxville and Van Buren will play in the consolation game starting at 6:30 p.m. Both teams have key starters back from successful squads of a year ago, and in the early going, they were battling it out. Anna trailed by one after a quarter and outscored the Lady Rangers by one in the second period to make it 20-20 at the half. But the second half was all Anna, starting with a 21-9 blitz in the third period that allowed the Lady Rockets to take command. Morgan Huelskamp, who had just two points at the half, erupted for eight in the third period, and Ashley Frohne added seven of her game-high 18. Huelskamp then added six more in the final period to finish with 16 for the game. For Knoxville, Tiana Heidt was the only player in double figures with 12.

Lehman wins with free throws DEGRAFF — Lehman struggled from the field, hitting under 20 percent for the game, but used the free throw line to post a 42-30 victory over Riverside in the Lady Cavs’ first game under new head coach Gene Goodwin. Lehman, 1-0, is right back in action tonight at home against crosstown rival Sidney. Riverside, 0-1, hosts Northwestern tonight. Lehman was able to hit just 10-for-51 from the floor, 19.7 percent, and didn’t shoot real well at the line either, 56 percent. But the Lady Cavs were able to get to the line a lot, and that accounted for over half their points, 22-for-39. “They played a 1-2-2 zone but they were doing a lot of slapping,” said Goodwin. “It was ugly, but it was a win, and we’re happy being 1-0.” Lehman didn’t pull away until the final period, leading by just three heading into the fourth quarter. Lindsay Spearman, who led the Lady Cavs in scoring last season, had 17 to lead all scorers Friday. Whitey Jenkins had 13 to lead Riverside, which was 10-for-46 from the

SCOREBOARD
Buford has 25, Bucks roll 80-47 COLUMBUS (AP) — Jared Sullinger blamed it on too much turkey. Whatever the reason, No. 3 Ohio State shook off its slow start with a dizzying display at the beginning of the second half. William Buford scored 17 of his 25 points after the break, and the Buckeyes routed Valparaiso 80-47 on Friday night. Aaron Craft added 15 points and eight assists for the Buckeyes (6-0), who tuned up for a big home showdown against No. 6 Duke on Tuesday. Sullinger had 14 points
and 13 rebounds, and Deshaun Thomas added 12 points. Buford had four points in Ohio State’s 192 surge right after the break, and the crowd used the final minute to serenade Michigan with derisive cheers ahead of their football game on Saturday. The quick burst to start the second half made the outcome a formality ‚Äî and allowed the Buckeyes (6-0) to begin thinking about facing the Blue Devils in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge.
“From the standpoint of looking at a team like Duke, it draws back to our game with Florida,” said Ohio State coach Thad Matta, referring to the Buckeyes’ relatively easy 81-74 win over the Gators earlier this season. “It’ll be a good challenge for us. Like the Florida game, we’ll know a lot more about us after it.” Sullinger said he couldn’t wait for much anticipated game against Duke, with Value City Arena already sold out. “We know the team coming in here on Tues-
day night,” said Sullinger, who also had five assists against Valpo. “And we know the team we have coming in here on Tuesday night. It should be a good battle.” The game clearly tilted at the outset of the second half. The Buckeyes brought a four-point lead into the final 20 minutes, but they quickly asserted themselves at both ends of the floor. Sullinger had seven points — including a crowd-pleasing 3 — in the second-half surge.

ARKANSAS RUNNING back Dennis Johnson (33) is tackled by LSU cornerback Tyrann Mathieu (7) during the second quarter of an NCAA college football game in Baton Rouge, La., Friday.
LSU powers past Arkansas 41-17 BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Tyrann Mathieu channeled his best Billy Cannon and No. 1 LSU was on its way to another run-away victory in the biggest game at Tiger Stadium in half a century. Mathieu returned a punt 92 yards for a score and the Tigers punished third-ranked Arkansas with 286 yards rushing, wiping out a 14-point deficit with a 41-17 win Friday that secured a spot in the SEC championship. Kenny Hilliard, Spencer Ware and Jordan Jefferson all scored on the ground for LSU (12-0, 8-0 SEC), which is 12-0 for the first time and will play No. 13 Georgia next weekend in Atlanta. A win over the Bulldogs would assure the Tigers their third trip to the BCS title game in nine seasons. Though at this point, LSU might be able to get there even if it loses. Arkansas took a surprising 14-0 lead on Tyler Wilson’s TD pass to Jarius Wright and
Alonzo Highsmith’s 47yard fumble return, but LSU stormed back by scoring 41 of the next 44 points in the game. The rivalry game known as the battle for “The Boot,” a trophy in the shape of Arkansas and Louisiana, marked the first time two teams ranked in the top three had met in Death Valley since 1959, when Cannon’s 89-yard punt return lifted No. 1 LSU to a 7-3 win over No. 3 Mississippi. Cannon also made a game-sealing tackle on defense late in that game. Mathieu, who was playing safety instead of cornerback much of the game because of Eric Reid’s injury the previous week, had defensive highlights of his own, forcing two turnovers with strips, one of which he recovered. He now has six forced fumbles this season. His fifth was a strip of running back Dennis Johnson in LSU territory late in the first half. That set up a touchdown drive that put the Tigers ahead to stay.
