Phony dollar bills pop up once again For the last several months, there have been increasing reports of counterfeit bills circulating throughout Oregon. Although it stretches back from earlier this year, recent police reports state that the phony greenbacks have made their way to merchants, particularly Walmart at 3721 Navarre Avenue. Among the reports: • On Oct. 9, a $20 bill was used to make a purchase at Walmart, according to police. “The suspect made a purchase from register No. 9 and paid in cash,” states the police report. “The suspect gave the clerk a $20 bill, which was turned in with the clerk’s drawer to the counting room.” An employee found the bill as she was counting the money from the drawer • On Oct. 6, a $5 bill was detected in a cash drawer in Walmart, likely received between Noon and Midnight, according to the police report. • On Sept. 28, a woman found pieces of counterfeit $10 bills in the Walmart parking lot after she was exiting the store at 3721 Navarre Ave., between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m.

It’s very difficult to tell the difference. The quality is very good.

“When she was walking to the parking lot, she noticed what appeared to be torn money on the ground,” states the report. “She gathered up the pieces and went to her vehicle. Upon further inspection, she found the pieces made several $10 bills with all the same serial numbers: CG29669764A. When she realized it was counterfeit money, she brought it to the Oregon Police Department.” • On Sept. 6, a $20 counterfeit bill was passed at the Bob Evans Restaurant, 2849 Navarre Ave. • On July 26, a counterfeit $20 bill was found in a deposit bag at Walmart. • On May 6, someone unknowingly

passed a counterfeit $20 bill at Circle K, 401 S. Wheeling St. • On Jan. 16, a $100 counterfeit bill was used to pay for merchandise at Walmart. Hard to tell Oregon Police Chief Mike Navarre said the counterfeit money is often difficult to detect. “They’re really good ones. They’re hard to tell,” he said. The reports started to peak about six months ago, he said. “In the last six months, they’ve become more and more prevalent.” Tracing the imitation currency’s origins is not an easy task because the money is circulated from person to person. “It’s extremely difficult to find out who is printing it. It gets out into circulation and just gets passed hand to hand,” he said. In addition, technological advances have made the fake bills more similar to the real thing. Counterfeit currency is usually computer generated. “It’s very difficult to tell the difference,” said Navarre. “The quality is very good. I couldn’t begin to tell you where they’re coming from.” Continued on page 2

State and Wood County officials said they’ve been unable to verify recent reports of black bear sightings. Wood County Sheriff Mark Wasylyshyn said his department has received two reports – the most recent one last month outside of the Village of Luckey – but it hasn’t been verified by his staff. “I believe we had two bear reports but neither one has been confirmed by a deputy,” he said Tuesday. Likewise John Windau, of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources office in Findlay, who said his office has received sighting reports in two local counties. “We have received reports of black bears this year in Wood and Lucas counties, but none of them were able to be verified,” he said. Last year, the ODNR’s Division of Wildlife received 158 sightings throughout the state, involving what is considered to be 74 individual black bears. One confirmed sighting took place in Seneca County but there were no reported sightings in Wood, Lucas, and Sandusky counties. That is a decrease in the total number of sightings compared to 2012 when 224 sightings involving an estimated 93 individual black bears were received. The wildlife division says the number of individual bears is considered a subjective judgment. The number of sightings in 2013 confirmed by evidence such as tracks or photos was lower than in 2012 but the percentage was somewhat higher as 54 (34 percent) of the 158 sightings were confirmed by division personnel. “These 54 sightings represented an estimated 28 bears in 23 counties,” a summary of observations by the ODNR says. “For comparison, in 2012 65 (29 percent) of 224 sightings were confirmed for an estimated 35 bears in 21 counties.” Bear sightings were reported in 35 Ohio counties in 2013. Of these, a little more than half were in northeastern counties. “Formal sightings from 1993 through

Road salt questions looming By Press Staff Writer The Ottawa County Engineerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office was able to fill its road salt storage facility to capacity last spring but county officials are uncertain they can purchase more in the immediate future. David Brunkhorst, county engineer, and Sheriff Stephen Levorchick last week announced the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s procedures and protocols for the 2014-15 winter season will include having plows available during storm conditions, with primary coverage focusing on 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weather conditions such as precipitation type and ambient air temperature, both existing and forecasted, will control the timing and amount of salt/stone that will be placed,â&#x20AC;? the statement says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our primary effort for basic snow events will be plowing to keep the roadways open to traffic. It makes no sense to place salt/stone on the pavement if we are experiencing blowing and drifting conditions.â&#x20AC;? Brunkhorst described the carry-over supply of salt as the only â&#x20AC;&#x153;sure thingâ&#x20AC;? the county has at the moment. While itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible the county may be able to buy more salt through a collective agreement with other governmental jurisdictions that utilizes the Ohio Department of Transportationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency purchase program, there is no guarantee of supply, he said. And if there is more to be bought, the price will certainly be much higher, Brunkhorst said, noting the price in 2013 was around $33 a ton compared to more than $105 a ton this year. The county received no bids this fall when it sought to purchase its normal supply. Bid documents indicate the county was looking to buy a maximum of 10,000 tons of salt for the county as well as the townships, villages and City of Port Clinton. Brunkhorst said the county plans to again mix salt and limestone in a 50/50 mix and add beet juice.

Bear sightings Continued from front page last year occurred in 59 predominantly eastern and south-central counties, the summary says. Black bear sightings have been confirmed in 52 of the 59 counties since 1993 and the first verified sightings in Medina and Seneca counties occurred last year, according to the summary.

Phony dollar bills pop up once again Continued from front page There is one characteristic, though, that fake currency notes do not have that genuine dollars do. â&#x20AC;&#x153;About the only thing that they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have is the right paper,â&#x20AC;? said Navarre. Bank notes are printed on paper that is not sold commercially, so the texture of fake money has a different feel to it. Secret Service â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a general rule, we do not investigate counterfeit because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so time consuming and so cumbersome to find out where this money may have come from,â&#x20AC;? says Navarre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you go into the Circle K and pay for something with $20 and the clerk holds up the bill and says, `Hey, this is counterfeit,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; are you going to be able to tell the police officer who shows up where the bill came from? I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. I may have gotten it from my bank or as change from a merchant. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extremely difficult.â&#x20AC;? Authentic money is printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, which is part of the U.S. Treasury Department. Counterfeit cases are turned over to the Secret Service, an agency of the Treasury Department. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is the main objective of the Secret

Service outside of a presidential year. In a presidential year, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing almost all dignitary protection,â&#x20AC;? he said. Navarre said he recently met with an official from the local Secret Service office to discuss the bad notes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so unusual now is that we are seeing $5 counterfeit bills, which we never saw before. People usually donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think twice about a $5. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost always $20s. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing a combination of $5s and $10s, even some $100s.â&#x20AC;? Northwood Police Captain Jeff Zahradnik said counterfeit bills have not been a recent problem in Northwood. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen anything here. I go through the reports every day and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t recall seeing anything for quite a while on counterfeit money or merchandise,â&#x20AC;? said Zahradnik. Tips According to the Secret Serviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website, the public can detect a counterfeit bill by observing the following: â&#x20AC;˘ Compare a suspect note with a genuine one of the same denomination and series, and pay attention to the quality of printing and paper characteristics. Look for differences, not similarities. â&#x20AC;˘ Study the dollarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s portrait. A genuine

portrait is lifelike and stands out distinctly from the background. A counterfeit portrait is usually lifeless and flat. â&#x20AC;˘ On a genuine Federal Reserve and Treasury Seal, the saw-tooth points of the Federal Reserve and Treasury seals are clear, distinct, and sharp. The counterfeit seals may have uneven, blunt, or broken saw-tooth points. â&#x20AC;˘ The fine lines in the border of a genuine bill are clear and unbroken. On the counterfeit, the lines in the outer margin and scrollwork may be blurred and indistinct. â&#x20AC;˘ Genuine serial numbers have a distinctive style and are evenly spaced. The serial numbers are printed in the same ink color as the Treasury Seal. On a counterfeit, the serial numbers may differ in color or shade of ink from the Treasury Seal. The numbers may not be uniformly spaced or aligned. â&#x20AC;˘ Genuine currency paper has tiny red and blue fibers embedded throughout. Often counterfeiters try to simulate these fibers by printing tiny red and blue lines on the paper, but they are on the surface, not embedded in the paper.

Dog shot by K-9 officer faces long recovery Three days after being shot in the Village of Woodville by an on-duty police officer, Moses was scheduled Thursday to come home. The chocolate Labrador retriever faces 10 or 12 weeks of additional care and therapy, owner Lauren Bischoff said. “He’s heavily medicated. We still don’t know if he will lose the leg,” she said. “It depends if there is nerve damage or if there is an infection that can’t be treated.” A review on Tuesday of the shooting cleared officer Steve Gilkerson of any violations of the village police department policy or Ohio law, police chief Roy Whitehead said in a prepared statement. The shooting occurred about 11:20 a.m. Monday while Gilkerson was conducting a traffic stop on U.S. 20 east of the village. “A dog ran onto U.S. 20 from private property, unrestrained and approached the officer on the driver’s side of the cars. Officer Gilkerson yelled at the dog to try to divert his behavior of running directly at the officer. The officer yelled a 2nd time as he was backing away from the dog. The officer, in fear for his safety and the safety of the two subjects who had exited their car, fired one round from his department issued weapon, striking the dog thereby ending the threat. “The dog then ran back onto the property from which it came and the dog owner arrived and took control of the animal,” Chief Whitehead’s statement says. Bischoff said Thursday she was disappointed the review didn’t include interviews of witnesses and surprised that Gilkerson, the department’s K-9 officer, wasn’t more aware of the dog that’s been a mascot of sorts for the family-owned business, Lockport Transportation, for years. “I bring him to work with me everyday,” Bischoff said. “He hangs out here. He’s almost six years old and he’s been here ever since he was born. We have a sales yard for stone and mulch and people are coming and going all the time. Moses greets everybody, our truck drivers and everyone else. People bring him treats. Even the mayor has come in two or three times and played with him.” She was in her office when the shooting occurred about 100 feet away. An accountant for the business was outside on a break at the time and saw the dog approach the police cruiser and vehicle pulled over by officer Gilkerson, Bischoff said. The Bischoffs transported Moses first to East Suburban Animal Clinic in Northwood where the dog was sedated and a veterinarian said there was a good chance the leg couldn’t be saved. Surgery was performed at the clinic’s west Toledo office. Anyone wanting to contribute to the Bischoffs for veterinary costs can do so at

Oregon schoools

Tough decisions following levy defeat By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com The Oregon school board is facing some tough decisions in the wake of the defeat of a 5.9 mill emergency levy in last Tuesday’s election. Out of 6,992 votes cast, the levy lost by 60.23 percent (4,211) to 39.77 percent (2,781), according to unofficial results by the Lucas County board of elections. Oregon schools Superintendent Lonny Rivera said he was frustrated by the loss. “I think there have been some black clouds over our district. Maybe some people think they are still there. I really don’t know,” he said. “We have held costs down. We aren’t doing things that normally fail levies.” The economy may also be playing a role in the lack of support, he said. The district has close to 50 percent of students getting free and reduced lunches in our district, a reflection of families who are still struggling economically. “There are a lot of people in our district that are still hurting,” he said. “We have a large number of students who are in that poverty range. So I think that’s a hard sell. I have to believe that’s what it is. Being from this community, schools have always been supported.” In previous years, before Rivera became superintendent, there was tension between the public and school officials which may still be lingering. “In the past, there have been some deci-

sions that were made that maybe people are still holding onto. I hope the community will step up and understand that we’re being honest with how we spend money and we’re doing good things for kids,” said Rivera, who spoke to 33 groups before the election to discuss the need for the levy, which did not have any organized opposition. “I’m going on my second year as superintendent. I’ve reached out to the community and talked to as many groups as I possibly can, anyone who will listen, about the good things we are doing for the kids, and trying to keep our costs down,” he said. Budget cuts “The reason we were going with a levy this year was to avoid having to start scaling back and getting rid of programs. That was exactly what I didn’t want to happen. It costs money to have people teach things and run things,” he said. Changes in educators’ pension places will likely prompt many to step down at the end of this year, he said. Their age and years of service requirements will gradually rise starting next year. “At this point, we’ll probably have a large retirement this year. You’ll see a lot of people statewide exiting the profession because it’s a good time to get out. There’s an incentive to retire. Those are all changes that are taking place at the end of this school year.” Some of those positions will not be

replaced, he said. “There will be a number of programs we probably won’t be able to operate. And my goal, as always, is I don’t want to ever give anyone a pink slip if I can avoid it,” he said. “We can’t run on a deficit. I have to balance the budget. It’s unfortunate that we’re at this stage.” He doesn’t want to disclose which programs may get cut, but it’s inevitable. “I don’t think we’re ready yet to release anything. But we have had plans in place. We have to make sure we can balance our books. It’s not going to be pretty. That’s the tragedy. You have to support your schools.” The district has been unable to get an operations levy passed since 2008. Although costs have remained steady, the financially strapped district over the years has been losing millions per year due to decreases in revenue from real estate and tangible personal property taxes as well as cuts in state funding. “We’re losing revenues. They’re down. We’re not receiving dollars we used to receive through the tangible personal property taxes. That’s been the real killer for us. And the state doesn’t fund us fully. So we’re bleeding money everywhere. It’s hard to make that up without voters supporting us,” he said. The next chance to place a levy on the ballot, he added, is next November. “We’re hoping the community will support us so we don’t have to go any deeper in reducing programs to kids.”

Monthly ag forum Dr. Bruce McPheron, college of food, agricultural, and environmental sciences, and vice president of agricultural administration at The Ohio State University, will speak at the monthly Northwest Ohio AgBusiness Breakfast Forum, Thursday, Nov. 20, from 8 to 9:30 a.m. at the Agricultural Incubator Foundation, 13737 Middleton Pike, (SR 582), Bowling Green Two of Dr. McPheron’s major administration arms include the Ohio State University Extension, which delivers knowledge from the university to the citizens of the state, and the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, which encompasses more than 2,100 faculty and staff statewide.

Oregon plans meeting on senior services By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon’s Recreation and Parks Committee will hold a meeting on Monday at 6:30 p.m. in council chambers at the Oregon Municipal Building on Seaman Road to discuss senior services and options for a senior center location. Administrator Mike Beazley said discussion will focus on specific recommendations for a senior services plan to be funded by revenue from a 0.5-mill senior levy passed by residents last November. Voters approved the five year levy to expand senior services. The levy will generate $210,000 each year to the city. The city has already collected senior levy revenue this year. A senior advisory committee has been meeting every couple of weeks since April to discuss the best options for distributing the levy funds, including the location of a senior center. At the last meeting, the committee provided a range of recommendations for services and received input from council and the public on how the revenue should be spent. “From that, we are ready now to come in with specific recommendations for a service plan that we will present on Monday,” said Beazley. “The enhanced services will be along the themes that we discussed at the last meeting – enhanced transportation services, some chore services, and outreach to make sure our seniors are aware of services that are available. We will recommend some social work type services to help our seniors navigate the system to access the services that might be available for them, whether it’s on the health care or transportation side. We look forward to implementing those very quickly in the coming weeks,” said Beazley. Some senior center advocates want to be sure there is also an emphasis on typical senior center activities that focus on socialization, which promotes maintaining and improving the mental and emotional health

larger, more centrally located facility. New location Beazley said a new location for a senior center was very likely. “Expanding the senior center on Bay Shore will certainly be discussed, but it’s not the likeliest outcome,” he said. The city has provided $47,715 annually to the senior center in 2011, 2012 and 2013. The city also contributes $25,000 annually to the Eastern Community YMCA, which provides services to 600 seniors, including 27 group exercise classes. Discounted membership through the city provides “Golden Eagle” cards to use for classes and programs. Currently, there are 59 Golden Eagle card holders in Oregon. The Area Office on Aging of Northwestern Ohio, Inc., provided $63,870.56 in funding to the senior center for staff and operations in 2012 and 2013. The funding that the senior center receives from the agency is just a portion of what it spends on senior services in Oregon. For example, in 2012, the agency spent a total of $309,279.12 on Oregon seniors with revenue from the Lucas County Senior Services levy, block grants and Older Americans Act funding. The agency provides benefits counseling and help accessing services, including Medicare and other health care access or insurance questions; home delivered meals; transportation; in home care, including personal care, such as bathing, dressing and housekeeping, and homemaker services, such as housekeeping and laundry; senior center services; and Chore services. Lucas County residents, have for years supported the Lucas County Senior Services levy. Voters last week renewed the 0.45 mill levy and approved a 0.15 additional levy for five years. Beazley said the Area Office on Aging has been a partner in the discussions at the committee meetings. “They’ve been at every one of those sessions,” he said. The agency has assured the city it will not reduce funding as a result of the local levy that was passed in Oregon last year.

Tiger Ridge Exotics

Inspection to determine fate of animal refuge By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com Officials from the Ohio Department of Agriculture were expected to be at the Tiger Ridge Exotics wild animal refuge in Stony Ridge late last week to inspect the premises and determine if the owner has met state regulations for such facilities. Erica Hawkins, a spokesperson for the department, on Thursday confirmed inspectors were to be at the site to assess the site, including the caging and care of the animals. Owner Ken Hetrick on Wednesday said he’s been receiving funds from donors across the nation and has been racing to make the improvements required by a relatively new state law as well as purchase the needed insurance. “We’re working every night to try to get in compliance with everything they want,” he said. “I have the signs made. I have the insurance, microchips.”

Donations have been sent, he said, and a “small army of guys” helped install new fencing to meet state regulations. “I even got a check from someone in California,” he said. He’s also retained an attorney to help navigate through the details of the Ohio Dangerous Wild Animals Act that bans unpermitted ownership of certain animals and reptiles after Jan. 1, 2014. The restricted list covers lions, tigers, and other “large cats”, bears, elephants, certain monkeys, rhinos, alligators, crocodiles, anacondas and pythons longer than 12 feet, certain vipers and venomous snakes. What are called wildlife shelter permits cost $250 for one to three animals and up to $1,000 for 11-15 animals. There is a $125 fee for each animal over the 15 limit and owners must obtain liability insurance or a surety bond of $200,000 to $1 million, depending on the number of animals. Costs associated with the new regulations were so high, Hetrick was worried he would be forced to close the

refuge that’s been located behind his residence on Fremont Pike for more than 30 years. In early October, Hetrick received a letter from an attorney who’s been retained by the agriculture department as a special prosecutor, informing him he hadn’t applied for the required permit. “In lieu of prosecution, the Department of Agriculture will allow you to voluntarily surrender all of the dangerous wild animals in your possession within the next 10 business days,” the letter, dated Oct. 8, says. Hetrick said his animals were donated to him from owners who no longer wanted them and many are now elderly. Tiger Ridge Exotics is home to six tigers, three lions, one liger, one leopard, one bobcat, one mountain lion, one bear and two timber wolves. A fundraising benefit for the refuge is planned for Nov. 29 at the Glass City Boardwalk, East Broadway.

of seniors. Beazley said the committee has agreed and that it will be addressed at the meeting. “The primary goal of Monday’s meeting is to take action on a service delivery plan. The objective is to help provide those services that will make it easier for Oregon seniors to live comfortably in their own homes. The greatest challenge to our seniors and their families is when they can’t find a way to stay in their own homes any longer. We’re looking to make sure we can provide those services that bring a good quality of life for our seniors for as long as we can– and that includes socialization in a place where they can gather,” he said. The city also expects to decide on whether to expand and upgrade the current senior center or find a new location, he said. “I think our mayor and council both expect decisions to be made on an actual location this year. It’s been kicked around in Oregon for at least 10 years. We’re ready to take some action this year. We will be presenting some options, and we also expect some feedback. But we look to pull the trigger on one of the options this year.” He did not want to disclose any final options until the meeting, he said. “We will discuss several different locations that we would have as possibilities, but we’ll present the options that we think will make the most sense to the community. This is kind of like a one last chance for public input and feedback. We expect council to then act on it this year. Ultimately, city council has to make that choice and act upon a recommendation.” The James “Wes” Hancock Senior Center, Oregon’s current senior center on Bay Shore Road, is used on a regular basis by 150 seniors, with 40-60 seniors served per day. The center provides transportation/ escort services; nutrition; support services for bills, insurance, and access; health and wellness; and recreation and socialization. Some seniors have wanted a better selection of programs to be available at the center, but the cramped space has limited their options. Senior surveys taken in Oregon in the past have shown many seniors want a

“Round the Clock” gone, but memories and questions linger

the fall, eventually pleading guilty to tax evasion and helping to transport women across state lines for prostitution. Her conviction netted her a four-year term at a women’s federal prison facility in Arizona, a convenient place for Lillian to reside, albeit behind bars, for Arizona is where she also owned a home and had spent considerable time there. It was believed by those close to her, that she moved there in the late 1960’s because she knew that the “Clock” was under investigation and wanted to remove herself from the Toledo area. She eventually fought extradition on the grounds that she was not living in Ohio at the time the raid. The “Clock” was located at the corner of Woodville and Fostoria Road, about 5 miles northwest of Genoa. A two-story white building with a large neon clock on the outside beckoned one and all 24 hours a day. Because of its proximity to Genoa, my hometown, I was familiar with the place and heard the stories of what took place there. As a teenager, I met Lillian Belt while I worked as a carryout and delivery boy at a popular Genoa grocery store, the place where Lillian and her two young children, a boy and a girl, often shopped for food and supplies, either for her large gated home near Elmore, next to the Ohio Turnpike, or for the women who worked and stayed at the “Round the Clock”. It was my job to deliver groceries to both locations and, at times, I was instructed to follow her as she drove her flashy new Cadillac convertible to her sleek California style ranch home so she could unlock the security gate for me. As a result of this appointed duty, my education in the ways of the world began early in life. And, it was always difficult for me to believe that the local law enforcement agencies didn’t know what was going on there, when as a 16-year-old, I knew, as did just about everybody else in Genoa. So, few people were surprised, when in 1970, federal agents raided the “truckstop”, along the highway and brought down the curtains on this mob-owned operation, known to cabbies, cops, truckers, and all stripes of lustful men from Chicago to Cleveland. The highly publicized trial in Toledo resulted in lots of headlines and many convictions. Some were sent to jail, including Madam Lillian. She tried for a while to get an early release from the lock up so she could take care of her “adopted” children, but the courts didn’t buy it. So she spent several years behind bars paying a price for

several decades of flaunting the tax laws. As years passed, I always wondered what ever happened to Lillian Pasco Tailford Belt? Did she stay in Arizona or was she even alive? That I assumed was not probable, given that 40 years had passed since the trial and she was at least 30 years my senior. But after some routine Internet searches, I was surprised to learn that while Lillian had indeed passed away it was only about five years ago, in 2009, at age 89. The obit in the Phoenix paper was short. A three line death notice, with nary a mention of her notoriety in Ohio. Even the Toledo Blade missed her death, as did all of the local media. Her final headline merely noted her passing and a schedule for the funeral service. It appears that she must have lived out the balance of her life in relative obscurity in Paradise Valley, Arizona. Now as a storyteller by nature, this has bothered me. I would like to have had the chance to have documented more of her life’s story. A story that no doubt was colorful, unusual and challenging. I for one am certain that Lillian had much more to tell, far beyond what we ever knew. In recent months, I did talk to a close friend of her family, and he tells me that Lillian, after leaving prison in Arizona, went back to school and became a nurse. This source tells me he went out to visit her in Arizona in the 1980s, and found that she enjoyed her new profession, and was still her attractive and vivacious self, likening her to “Miss Kitty” on the old TV series “Gunsmoke”. A kind and generous woman. A quality I too recall, from when I delivered the groceries to her home, she always

...she knew that the “Clock” was under investigation and wanted to remove herself from the Toledo area.

Nearly a half century ago, a woman known as “Ginger” was one of the most notorious residents of Northwest Ohio. As the famous madam of an equally famous house of ill repute on Woodville Road, she and a small army of accomplices were facing a major federal indictment that included charges of tax evasion, gambling, white slavery and bribery. The case captured the public’s attention in 1971. It offered a trial filled with steamy testimony, revealed the sordid underbelly of the prostitution trade, and how the “Round the Clock Grille”, the front for a popular bordello, was able to evade criminal prosecution for so many years. The stunning revelations would eventually bring down the sitting Ottawa County Sheriff, James Ellenberger, for accepting thousands of dollars in bribes and it would send former Ottawa County Sheriff Myron Hetrick to prison for perjury after he lied about helping to distribute the bribe money. At the center of the stormy scandal was a striking blonde by the name of Lillian Pasco Tailford Belt, known by many simply as “Ginger”. She was accused of running the operation since the 1950’s. Lillian, who grew up in Toledo’s Polish Kuschwantz neighborhood began life in 1919 as Lillian Lewandowski. She attended Central Catholic and had numerous siblings whose lives took more traditional routes. But Lillian was looking for more out of life and early in her adult life she was linked to the notorious Rosie Pasco of Port Clinton by way of her first marriage to Rosie’s son. Rosie is reputed to have a run a similar operation for many years near Camp Perry during the war years when that area was home to thousands of lonely soldiers. Rosie Pasco was also indicted in the “Clock” scandal as well as Nancy Scott, the owner of the building, and her husband, “Holy Joe” D’Angelo. The federal agencies that developed the case against the “Clock” had been investigating the activities there for many years as part of an ongoing probe into organized crime in the Toledo area. While there were certainly other larger targets, it was Lillian Pasco Tailford Belt who took

slipped me a five dollar tip. That was a day’s wages for a carry-out boy in 1965. Today, as I drive by the corner of Woodville and Fostoria roads, the old “Round the Clock” is long gone, erased from the landscape by a ball of flame shortly after its closing, the land taken over and replaced with a bank. And yes, many do see some irony there. However, little or nothing lingers to remind us or future generations of what took place there. How for so many nights and years, the parking lot at this rural outpost of sin, would be filled with a fleet of yellow taxi cabs from Toledo who brought out men to sample upstairs what was NOT on the menu downstairs. The cabs would wait in the shadows of a red glowing hand on the big neon clock on the outside of the building, as it blinked round and round in circles, inviting those with a twenty dollar bill to stop in and see what earthly “delights” could be found up the stairs. But now, decades later, the cabs are all gone and the “Clock” has stopped and blinks only in the minds of those who remember.

Focus on solutions, not the problems Dare to Live

by Bryan Golden

“

Since challenges are a normal part of life, it’s in your best interest to become adept at finding workable solutions rather than becoming stuck wallowing in your problems.

“

Some people search for problems. They look for what’s wrong in their lives, with other people’s lives, and with the world. Some people even become fixated on problems to the point that all the positive aspects of their lives become obscured. They complain incessantly about problems to anyone who will listen. These people dismiss any suggestions of possible solutions as unworkable. Some offer endless excuses as to why there are no viable solutions for their problems. They explain in detail why their problems are unique. This is what happens when people focus on problems rather than solutions. Successful people understand that there is a solution for every problem, and they work at become experts at finding it. They identify a problem only once and then devote their energy to fixing it. They recognize taking action is more important, and productive, than complaining. In order to move forward toward your goals, it’s imperative to focus on the solutions you need. Dwelling on problems inhibits the discovery of these solutions, discourages you, and generates a negative outlook. Before you can search for a solution, you must accurately identify the true problem. This entails distinguishing between problems and symptoms. Symptoms are caused by problems. However, symptoms that persist when the root problem has not been fixed, create secondary problems. For example, you observe water dripping from the ceiling in your house. Putting a bucket on the floor under the leak addresses the symptom. But before you can fix the problem, you must identify exactly what it is. There are several possibilities. A pipe is broken. The roof has a leak. Someone spilled water on the floor above. There is

a leaky drain on an upper floor. Any fix based on an inaccurate or false understanding does not correct the problem. Passively waiting for a problem to go away is not a prudent strategy. This approach invariably allows a problem to worsen, making it harder to fix later. Resolving problems requires proactive participation. After identifying a problem, the next step is to come up with the best possible solution. A good approach for this is to create a list of all imaginable solutions. List any-

thing and everything that comes to mind, without evaluating which is the best idea. Once you have a listed all possible solutions you have thought of, then evaluate each option. Rank the entries in order of effectiveness. Looking at all of your options together often produces more potential solutions by combining the best aspects of those ideas already identified. Now you are ready to take action. Begin implementing your solution. Long or complex solutions need to be broken down into smaller, more manageable steps. Take one step at a time. Don’t get overwhelmed. Don’t become impatient. Some problems require a certain amount of time to fix. Assess your progress as you move forward. Are you getting the desired results? If not, why not? What corrections in your strategy are required to get you back on track to a successful resolution? Problem solving is a dynamic process. You have to be ready and willing to make adjustments as needed. Don’t waste time complaining or feeling sorry for yourself. Forward is the direction to be headed. The past is over. The action you take today is what makes the difference. Since challenges are a normal part of life, it’s in your best interest to become adept at finding workable solutions rather than becoming stuck wallowing in your problems. All it takes is a simple 3 step approach; identify the problem, formulate a solution, and then take action. NOW AVAILABLE: “Dare to Live Without Limits,” the book. Visit www.

Trees offer homeowners a bounty of free mulch. By Jill Richardson This time of year, your trees are sending you a message. Although I grew up in the Midwest, I’m experiencing it anew. After spending eight blissful years in California, I’ve returned to a state where people wear hats shaped like cheese and where leaves turn colors and drop off the trees. I’m not completely ignorant of the weather here in Wisconsin. I remember having to pick a Halloween costume that could fit over a heavy jacket when I was a kid, and I know to expect the first snowflakes around the first week of November. I’m also well aware that I need to purchase an ice scraper and a brush for my car’s windshield rather soon — and that I’ll have to use them regularly until at least March. But my childhood experiences in the frigid north had little to do with yard work. Except for the times I was forced — very much against my will — to mow the lawn, I got off scot-free. The leaves fell from the trees, then the leaves went away. Someone else got rid of them — grown-ups, I suspect — and I didn’t know where they went. Playing in leaf piles was something I did as a kid. Raking leaves was not. As an adult, I now see the bounty of leaves the trees are heaping on my street through a gardener’s eyes. These leaves are

Guest Editorial a gift. Trees, it turns out, are strategic in their leaf shedding. Fallen leaves decompose to feed fungi that in turn nourish tree roots. So our trees are, in effect, making their own mulch and dumping it all over the very spot most beneficial to them: their root zones. Unfortunately, to a suburban homeowner eager to get a head start on next summer’s manicured lawn, mounds of dead leaves are unsightly. Mulch is a bagged product you might buy, or have delivered in a pickup, and it must stay within a garden bed lined with plastic or bordered with bricks. It’s not something some tree ought to dump all over your yard. For cities, the problem goes beyond aesthetics: Leaves that fall in the street can clog storm drains. So each fall, millions of homeowners clear their lawns of leaves and local governments then dispose of them. Where do all these leaves go? If we threw them all away, leaves and other yard trimmings would account for 13.5 percent of all the trash in our landfills. Fortunately,

over half of this yard waste is diverted away — for example, into composting programs. Some cities, like my new hometown of Madison, take care of the composting for their residents. They only ask that we rake our leaves into piles on the curb for pickup. Fort Collins, Colorado goes one step beyond that, connecting the people who want leaves with others who want to get rid of them. But that’s not true everywhere. Thanks to budget cuts, New York City’s leaves are headed for the trash. Most cities, even those with composting programs, instruct residents that the best thing to do with your leaves is to leave them be. If you don’t want leafy mulch covering your lawn, place your foliage in a compost pile, or run it over with the mower. Nature will take care of it by spring. Your trees will thank you.

Voters speak up To the editor: Thank you voters in the Woodmore School District. A very impressive 70 percent spoke up and said no to another school levy. They might ask again in May, so keep that in mind. Now how about that 70 percent asking the school board to have a income tax instead of a property tax to start paying for the school? Look what we have done by sticking together. Gail Lutman Genoa

Rigged system To the editor: I won’t make excuses like the Republicans have ever since President Obama won his first and second terms. Even with all the gerrymandering that went on in favor of the Republicans from a rigged system, to the Koch brothers and their payoff money to the Republican party, they will not run our government. If the useless members of congress don’t support jobs, health care, women’s free choice, Social Security, or Medicare etc. all the president has to do is veto their bills. Shame on Democrats who didn’t take the time to vote. Don’t complain when the Republican party destroys our country as George Bush did for eight years. Joann Schiavone Walbridge

Kudos To the editor: Thank you for your recent stories regarding lost dogs in the area. I appreciate the efforts of The Press in trying to help these families locate and reunite with their beloved pets. I can not imagine the uncertainty the families face in not knowing for certain what has become of their beloved Bear and Mia. I pray they are found. I hope to read the final chapter as both are returned home. Margaret Pena Millbury

The first stoppage was eight months earlier when four workers lost their lives in an accident. That accident also seriously injured four others. *** The Ohio Department of Agriculture identified the first infestation of the Emerald Ash Borer in Oregon in trees along Pickle Road. “Discovering Emerald Ash Borer infestations in these trees while undesirable is to be expected when using an effective monitoring tool. These trap trees were arranged to help gauge the extent of Ohio’s infestation and further aid us in battling this bug,” said Fred Dailey, director of the agriculture department. Sports: Employees of Guardian Industries in Millbury had a chance to touch the Stanley Cup won by the Detroit Red Wings; the NBA Larry O’Brien Trophy won by the Detroit Pistons and the WNBA Championship Trophy won by the Detroit Shock.

The true value of life is determined more by our outlook than the external circumstances of our life. And although everything can be looked at in various ways, those people who are genuinely the happiest are usually the people who maintain a positive attitude despite the difficulties of their life. The stoic philosophers were fond of saying that it is not things which disturb us, but our view or judgement of things. When we simply change the way that we look at things, amazingly the things themselves will change. Ultimately, we

should ask ourselves how we view the universe and our place in it. Do we see it as a hostile or a friendly universe? This is perhaps the most fundamental question in determining our perspective on life, and we would do well to consider that God is in control and that events are unfolding exactly as they should, despite external appearances to the contrary. Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. R.S.V. James 1:2-3

Health Published second week of month.

Gym offers training in a culture of respect and accountability By Tammy Walro Press Features Editor twalro@presspublications.com Cammie Herrera truly believes that “to everything there is a season.” The Toledo native, owner of the Body Factory gym on Woodville Road in Northwood, has been through many different “seasons” in her life and credits where she is to being able to grow and change and survive through all of them. After becoming a victim of abuse in her early childhood, she developed an eating disorder. “That’s very common in young girls because you reach for what you have control over,” she said. When she started passing out in school, a good friend made it her mission to make her eat. Her response was to work out. “I figured out what I could and couldn’t eat and I was very strict for many years,” she said. “Eventually, I learned that I was OK with food, but the training remained an obsession.” When her mom was diagnosed with a serious illness, she developed a consuming passion for learning about the human body. In high school she studied to be a medical assistant and read everything she could. Just after graduation, she became a medical assistant and subsequently attended the University of Toledo where she studied forensics. “In college, I volunteered at the morgue…that gives you different perspective about the human body,” she said. Cammie’s other “seasons” included being a certified bounty hunter and also a Realtor. She continued to train, going from cardio to yoga and Pilates, building strength through weights and bodybuilding, and Muay Thai (kicking and hitting). “I became a workaholic,” she said. “I had money; I had a brand new Corvette; I had three houses. And by changing my workouts and training, I could change my body to be different, hoping to find happiness,” she said. “But I still felt empty. “At one point, I wished I could go back to when I had only my little apartment, but I knew who my friends were,” she said. A short time later, the real estate market hit a downturn and she lost everything. “I had nothing but God and He healed me and restored my heart and I was able to forgive other people and that’s when the real change happened.” She decided to turn her passion for

With the $300 she had to her name and a $5,000 grant from Lagrange Development Corporation, she opened her own gym. Adam Herrera was one of the first to work out at the gym. “I was in good shape and was really into weights – my whole family comes from a wrestling background,” Adam said. “I tried Cammie’s class and I was winded…I knew, she had something. “I would tell her, “you’re stealing my oxygen – I can’t breathe,’” Adam trained at the Body Factory two times a day, five days a week. He realized he had not only found a great trainer, but also someone he wanted to spend the rest of his life with and eventually made Cammie his wife. Currently, Cammie still owns a home in Toledo, which she’s trying to sell, and Adam’s house is in Bono, so when she saw a “cool” yellow building for rent on Woodville Road, (the former Condos and Trees), the idea of relocating to this side of the river intrigued her. When she saw the building available to rent, she jumped on it and opened in their new location July 7. The gym offers

class-based training that includes a variety of techniques including calisthenics, endurance training, kickboxing, resistance training, flexibility and core and balance and high intensity interval training. “The first thing I do with clients is to talk about their goals – do they want to tone up, lose weight, get healthy or get stronger?” she said. “Then I can tailor the workouts within the class to help meet each client’s goal. “I was injured working with a trainer who didn’t stress proper technique,” Cammie said. “Our clients don’t come in and pick up the equipment and do whatever they want – it’s personal training in a small-group setting. “She has a real gift for doing 20 things at once,” Adam said. “She can have 10 people doing 10 different things depending on their individual abilities and goals.” One thing that helps her gym stand out is a culture of positivity and respect in the studio, she said. “We’re like a family here and we don’t tolerate negativity – even about oneself. There’s no ego or vanity – we don’t care about what you wear or your makeup – if you happen to look good when you’re working out, that’s just a bonus.

“We’re also big on accountability,” she said. “You have to look in the mirror and take responsibility for your choices –take away the power that excuses and justifications have over your actions. “Everyone comes with different abilities, and goals and limitations,” she said. “No one has to be afraid to fail, but everyone can do something – they’re not allowed to quit.” “Because I’ve had my own struggles, I have a heart for what I do and I have a heart for the people I train, who may be having self-image issues, eating disorder issues, victim issues, depression issues, anger issues,” she said. “It’s so heartening to see people who might not otherwise have connected in their daily lives to come in, support each other and become not just training partners but also friends,” she said. “I’m just blessed just to be a part of it all. “ The Body Factory is located at 4211 Woodville Rd. Classes are offered on a drop-in basis as well as in weekly, monthly, three- and six-month and yearly packages. The fee starts at $15 for one session. The first class is free. On Nov. 7, Cammie hosted a free self-defense seminar at the gym.

Grant awarded to The Light House Group for recovery home The Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services announced that The Light House, Inc. will receive a grant for capital and operational costs to begin a recovery/sober living home in Ottawa County. The Light House, a non-profit organization based in Port Clinton, was formed at the urging of Judge Bruce Winters of the

Ottawa County Common Pleas Court. Throughout his term, the judge grew frustrated with the revolving door of addiction in the criminal justice system and a lack of a stable living environments for individuals in recovery. The Light House group is comprised of representatives from addiction treatment organizations, the recovery and faith com-

munities, and service organizations who are working together to tackle addiction issues in Ottawa County. The Light House has also partnered with the Mental Health and Recovery Board of Erie and Ottawa Counties and has received a financial commitment to sustain the sober living home for at least three years.

The grant funds will enable the Light House to purchase and renovate a property and provide services to 10 individuals. Residents will receive an array of services including mental health counseling, addiction treatment and career development. The Light House is scheduled to open in April 2015.

The clinic opens at 7 a.m. every Saturday and is located on the first floor of the hospital just off the main lobby. The sports injury clinic is open to athletes who are junior and senior high school, collegiate and/or “weekend warriors.” The comprehensive clinic includes an evaluation and diagnostic imaging, if necessary. All test results are reviewed by a sports medicine physician and a plan of care is developed and specifically tailored to the athlete. If an additional consultation is needed via an orthopedic specialist, then the clinic will work with the athlete and his or her family to schedule an appointment. Should a plan of care include physical therapy or athletic training, a physical therapist or trainer will also evaluate the athlete during the clinic and treatment may begin immediately. Additionally, with HIPAA clearance secured by the athlete and his/her family, communication is provided to the athlete’s coach and school athletic trainer so any play restrictions are implemented and a progression for return to play is set in motion. For information, call 419-251-4000.

Don’t Text and Drive The U.S. Department of Transportation is leading the effort to stop texting and cell phone use while driving. Since 2009, the department has held two national distracted driving summits, banned texting and cell phone use for commercial drivers, encouraged states to adopt tough laws, and launched several campaigns to raise public awareness about the issue. One week each November is set aside to make teens more aware of the dangers of taking their eyes off the road. This year, National Teens Don’t Text and Drive Week is Nov. 18 to 24. What can parents and guardians do? The hazard of texting while driving is a serious threat to teenagers, as data illustrates. Parents who want to help keep their teens from becoming a statistic should talk to them about the dangers of distracted driving. The best advice is to simply turn off the phone until they arrive at their destination. A few other suggestions would be to set driving rules, make a family pledge, and for parents – lead by example.

Transport program expanded Wood County Commissioners, James Carter, Doris Herringshaw, and Joel Kuhlman announced the expansion of the Non-Emergency Transportation program effective Nov. 3. County residents needing transportation for non-emergency treatment including medical or mental health appointments in Wood County can call 1-844-353-6779

to speak to a NET-Plus Transportation Coordinator. Currently, transportation to physical health appointments will only be available to those consumers who are at or below 200 percent of the poverty level with limited assets. Those with mental health or drug abuse treatment appointments within Wood County should be able to get the transportation without regard to income. Due to the use of federal and state funding, a screening process will be utilized to determine eligibility of consumers for the transportation services. The partnering agencies are continuing to discuss options for consumers above the 200 percent poverty level. Since the NET-Plus program is for non-emergency transports, all calls must be made at least 10 days in advance of appointments. The Wood County NET-Plus transportation program is an expansion of the current Non-Emergency Transportation (NET) operated by the Department of Job and Family Services. Partnering agencies include The Wood County Department of Job and Family Services, Wood County Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services Board, and the Children’s Resource Center.

Working smoke alarms save lives

“

...when smoke alarms fail to operate, it is usually because batteries are missing, disconnected or dead.

“

Working smoke alarms cut the risk of dying in a home fire by half according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), who encourages families to install smoke detectors on every floor and in every bedroom or sleeping area. According the Jackie Hanf, an electrical supplies specialist at Gross Electric, there are several different types of smoke detectors to consider, including batteryoperated devices and hard-wired systems. “Battery-powered smoke alarms offer an inexpensive and easy way to protect your home,” says Hanf. As long as the batteries have been replace regularly, the battery power continues to work during power outages. According to the NFPA, when smoke alarms fail to operate, it is usually because batteries are missing, disconnected or dead. “Some models have a front-load battery compartment,” says Hanf, “making it even easier for homeowners to replace the batteries.” Alarms that are powered by sealed, long-life lithium batteries provide homeowners with the peace of mind that their smoke alarms are operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week – for 10 years. After that time, the alarms should be replaced. Newer homes are required by building safety codes to have interconnected alarms. In an interconnected system, when any one alarm is triggered by smoke, all interconnected alarms within the home sound a warning. In new construction, it is easy to hard-wire these interconnected alarms into the home. However, with the wireless technology that’s available, it’s possible for any home to have an interconnected system. There are also smoke detectors that

feature a voice alarm with programmable locations. “In the event of a fire, these devices not only sound a horn alarm, but can also tell you what room the fire is in,” Hanf said. As an added level of protection, many models can detect carbon monoxide, as well as smoke. In addition to replacing smoke alarms after 10 years, the NFPA encourages homeowners to test all smoke alarms at least once a month, as opposed to the older recommendation of twice a year. To keep smoke detectors in good working condition, the Toledo Fire & Rescue Department says to never paint smoke alarms, and to keep them free from dust and cobwebs. “You should also avoid placing them in front of air vents,” Hanf said. A smoke alarm will alert you of a fire, but you still need to escape the fire. For your protection, the Toledo Fire & Rescue Department recommends that families practice an escape plan for getting out of the home quickly.

sponsored by Karen Witt (forefront) dishes up scrambled eggs and other breakfast goodies to the first wave of family members and students at Genoa High School's incentive breakfast. (Press photo by Cynthia Jacoby)

Incentives drive Genoa students By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press Senior Jake Truman sat down to eat a warm breakfast with grandma Joan Truman seated at his side in the Genoa High School cafeteria. The Monday morning buffet of French toast, scrambled eggs, home fries, biscuits and gravy and cinnamon buns was an incentive event for the 234 students who achieved high grades the first nine weeks of the 2014-15 school year. “It makes me want to do better,” said Truman who has his eyes on the arts or structural engineering as he continues his search for a college. This is the fifth year for the incentive program, now managed in part by the Genoa Academic Committee, which in the past has included ice cream bars and pizza parties. But this is the first year that parents or family members could attend to support the students. The students’ cost for the tasty treat was underwritten by Riverside Machine and the 229 relatives paid $5 each. Because of busing and other time issues, Penta County Career Center students couldn’t partake in this event but will be included in end of the year honors. Carol and Ricky Shoemaker joined their daughter senior Rikki Shoemaker for breakfast. Rikki is headed to Bowling Green State University in the fall to major in education and minor in Asian studies. Rikki agreed incentive prizes were a nice changeup to the regular school day but credited her desire to excel to her parents. “It’s fun,” she said of the school program. But keeping her on track to forge ahead academically, “That’s my parents’ job,” she smiled and gave a nod to her family as they headed toward her with food trays in hand. And that’s the point the Genoa Schools administration hoped to drive home at the event, Principal Cari Buehler said. “And we need to do a better job of informing those people of what we are doing here,” Buehler said prior to the event. A teacher encouraged her to expand the program this year to reach out to that network. “It’s not just about the football stadium or a winning soccer team. We are

providing world class educations here. We need to show off what the students have achieved.” Before breakfast, students and their loved ones packed into the auditorium for a quick pep talk from Buehler. The program also included a video montage of Genoa High School life created by senior Grace Ortiz set to the tune of Pharrell Williams’ hit song “Happy.” “Obviously, the students seated before me have gone the distance,” Buehler said. “And parents, thank you for what you’ve instilled. This is a proud moment for parents.” After all the trial and tribulations of raising teens, she laughed, events like this are the payoffs. And don’t kid yourself that community isn’t a major part of the equation, the principal said. The financial support and personal time donations of this community’s individuals and businesses are the lifeblood of the school district. She pointed to examples like Riverside Machine helping with this meal as well as JBI Corp. and GenoaBank providing the cash for 20 graphing calculators distributed among students this year. “I am not who I am today solely because of my parents, or my spouse, but because of my community,” said Buehler, who was born and raised in Genoa. “And I am excited about the direction Genoa Schools are taking.” The graduating students entering college are placing in higher level first year classes, comparable to the results of the renowned Ottawa Hills school district nearby, Buehler said. Earlier this year, U.S. News and World Reports tapped Genoa High School as one of the top high schools academically among 19,400 school evaluated for its back to school report. Danbury High School was the only other local school to receive the honor. That recognition is even more amazing, Buehler added, when one considers the disparity in state funding between the two districts located at opposite ends of Ottawa County. “We get $6,000 per student. Danbury gets $17,000 per student. We’re pretty rock star to produce equal caliber of students at substantially lower funding,” Buehler exclaimed.

Slogan helps Waite stop losing streak By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer Waite’s football team had a rallying cry throughout the 2014 season. “The happy teams get beat,” said coach Dan Chipka, who guided the Indians to a 5-5 record in his first season. “The kids really embraced that motto. We were breaking out of our calls on that, and the kids were posting it in their lockers. They would write it on the grease board in my room. That became our rallying cry and that’s going to be our rallying cry moving forward. We can’t be complacent on our past success.” The Indians returned nine starters on offense and six on defense to a team that struggled to a 2-8 finish in 2013, including a 2-3 mark in the City League. This year’s team claimed the program’s first CL title – they shared it with Scott and Bowsher– since the 1963 season. Waite hadn’t even finished with a .500 record since going 5-5 in 2006. “Winning the league title was certainly nice,” Chipka said, “but I would have liked to not share it and be sole champions.” That possibility went out with window with a 40-28 loss to Scott in the penultimate game of the season. The Indians bounced back the following week, however, and pasted Woodward 38-8 to finish 4-1 in the CL. “We had the Bowsher game the week before Scott, and that was a rollercoaster ride for us,” Chipka said of the 24-22 win over the Rebels. “It was a very close game and … that was a tremendous victory for us. We had to turn around in a short week and prepare for Scott, on a Thursday night at home. It was 6-6 at halftime, and the second half we lost the line of scrimmage and put the ball on the ground too many times. It was a difficult loss for us to cope with - the staff, players and community. We responded well the following week against Woodward.” Waite began the season with two bad losses, to Northern Buckeye Conference power Genoa (41-14) and Sylvania Northview (43-19). The Indians and Wildcats were tied at 13-all before lightning postponed the game to the next day, and Northview rolled. Again, the Indians responded the following week with a 28-26 thriller over rival Clay. “It was a shot in the arm for us,” Chipka said. “It gave us energy and juice and the excitement we needed to carry into league play. We were making a lot of progress with the kids, but they needed to see results, to see it translate into wins. The coaches saw the program was moving in the right direction. To get that victory in our third game was critical.” What can’t be overlooked is the fact

Waite’s Dan Chipka guided the Indians to a 5-5 record in his first season. (Press photo by Harold Hamilton, hehphotos. com) that the players had to learn new offensive and defensive systems once Chipka’s staff took over. Chipka said everyone involved worked around the clock to get that done, as fast as possible. “We installed some new wrinkles and the kids were grasping it very quickly, which made the transition very easy,” the coach said. “In the early days, a lot of hard work and late nights were put into it.” Chipka said one of the messages to his team at its upcoming banquet will be to celebrate the victories. “After seven years of losing football, we are .500 now,” Chipka said. “There is a lot to be excited about and be proud of.” The Indians graduate 10 senior starters, but Chipka said the underclassmen are “all in” to get better in 2015. “They’ve really bought into our approach,” he said. “They’re all hungry. We have a lot of talent coming back. We are losing a lot of senior leadership and production, but that gives the younger kids a

chance to step up.” Senior quarterback Jeremy Pratt, who passed for 1,247 yards and five touchdowns, was also Waite’s leading rusher with 1,329 yards on 208 carries. He finished with 19 touchdowns and three PATs. The second-leading rusher was senior tailback Nate Houle, with 651 yards and eight touchdowns on 112 carries. The top returning rusher next season will be junior hybrid back Kelvin Downer, who carried 16 times for 164 yards. Downer also led the team in receiving yards, with 11 catches for 277 yards. Senior wideout Diondre Irish had 13 catches for 223 yards, and junior Anthony Ashford (13 for 216) and senior tight end Israel Diaz (9 for 207) were the third- and fourth-leading receivers. Houle, who also played inside linebacker, led the team in tackles with 107. Ashford, who played outside linebacker/ safety, had 89.

Hess named All-Ohio; Sponaugle looks forward to next year By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer National Trail Raceway in Hebron, site of the annual Ohio high school state cross country meet, has felt like a second home to Clay junior Haley Hess over the past three years. “I like the course because it runs really fast,” Hess said. “It’s very open, so you can always hear people cheering you on. That helps. There’s nothing I don’t like about it. It’s probably one of my favorite courses.” Last Saturday the 5-foot-6 Hess placed 10th at the Division I state meet, finishing in 18 minutes, 33.94 seconds. It was not her fastest time of the season – she ran 18:31 while taking fourth place at the regional meet – but it was close. And it was enough for her to earn first-team All-Ohio status for the second straight year. Hess finished sixth in 18:41.39 last year and 56th as a freshman in 2012, in 19:05.09. She ran with her Clay teammates at the 2012 and ‘13 state meets, but the Eagles were unable to qualify as a team this season. Hess said running by herself on Nov. 1 “didn’t affect me.” “You could say it was nice to have people there to run with you,” she said. “I was nervous, but I kept myself calm. Erin Gyruke (now at Ohio State) was the leader of our team and always kept us calm. Now that I’m an upperclassman, I try to take that role.” Hess, who turned 17 on Nov. 4, said she wasn’t ready for the season to end last Saturday.

“I like running,” she said. “I think I have more in me.” Hess’s finish at the state meet capped an impressive season, which she began with a second-place finish at the South Lyons (Mich.) Invitational. She followed that with a first-place finish at the Oakland University (Mich.) Invitational, an eighthplace finish at the Tiffin Carnival and another first-place finish at the Three Rivers Athletic Conference championships. She also won the Cardinal Stritch Invitational and the district title, and was named the female runner of the year in the TRAC. Hess secured her top-10 finish at state with a strong kick at the end. “I knew what the race was, how the pace was,” she said. “You had to go out fast. I knew I had to try to go out with the leaders. I had to stick in that general pack and get out to a good start and stay close. It played out pretty good. My first mile, I was around the top 20. The last straightaway to the finish I was in 16th, and I ended up passing six people. I can’t always rely on my kick, but I knew I had to get myself in a good spot to finish in the top 10.” The top 16 runners in each of the three divisions earn first-team All-Ohio status. “I was happy,” Hess said. “I think I ran a good race. I probably could have gone out a little bit faster, but that was a lesson learned for next season.” Hess doesn’t plan to slow down anytime soon. Basketball practice started last Friday and Hess, who will probably start at guard for the Eagles, said she intended to

start practicing on Nov. 5. *** Eastwood Eagle sophomore Hannah Sponaugle competed in the D-II race at the state meet and finished 48th in 19:49.98. Sponaugle, who took second at the district meet and seventh at regionals, was 33rd at last year’s state meet (19:37.40). “I’m glad it’s over,” she said. “I’m ready to move on and try something different. I do indoor track in the winter, and I lift and train for (spring) track season.” Sponaugle would have liked to at least duplicate the 19:17 she ran while winning the Northern Buckeye Conference title, her best time of the season. “It was cold and windy,” she said. “When I first started I thought there were a lot more people when there weren’t. I was more in the middle of the pack within the first mile. It was really crowded. I would have liked to be up closer to the front. My strategy was go out strong the first two miles and really kick it in the last mile. I would have liked to be faster at the twomile. That last mile wasn’t too bad. I was pretty disappointed.” Sponaugle said her showing at the state meet will motivate her for 2015. “I need to work on my mental toughness in all different situations in the race,” she said. “I was pretty nervous going into it. The wind just made me feel really slow, even though everyone was running in the wind.”

Genoa Senior

Versatility strong suit for this two-time first team All-Ohio pick By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer Genoa football coach Paul Patterson said one thing he likes about senior Cody Pickard is his versatility. To wit: in the last two seasons Pickard has played cornerback, safety, running back, punter, kicker, kick returner and punt returner. One position the 5-foot-10, 180-pound Pickard always wanted to play was defensive end. “That would be sweet,” he said. “Being a defensive back, you’re always back and you don’t really get to touch the quarterback. At defensive end, you don’t really have to worry about anything but hitting the quarterback.” Pickard, a two-time first-team All-Ohio kicker, hasn’t had quite the impact he had for the Comets in previous seasons, simply for the fact that his leg hasn’t been utilized as much. After kicking 15 field goals last season, including a school-record 53-yarder against Port Clinton, Pickard entered Genoa’s Division IV playoff game at Northwest Ohio Athletic League champion Wauseon on Friday with just five field goals (in eight attempts). All of his makes were from 35 yards and out, including a 45- and 48-yarder, and he’s missed from 47 and 52 yards. He also has kicked 39 PATs and is credited with 28 touchbacks. On offense, he has carried 25 times for 138 yards and two touchdowns, but his main role on that side of the ball has been as a lead blocker for senior tailback Jake Wojciechowski, who entered the playoffs just 65 yards shy of 2,000 on the season. Pickard also has nine catches for 208 yards, and 25 tackles and three interceptions on defense, including one for a touchdown. Patterson said Pickard usually draws the other team’s best receiver. Pickard is averaging 43 yards on his punts, and has himself returned one punt for a touchdown for the 8-2 Comets. “This was my hardest year kicking-wise,” said Pickard, whose brother Tyler was a three-time All-Ohio kicker for Genoa. “My sophomore year, I just kicked. Last year I played defense and kicked. This

Senior Cody Pickard aims for the uprights against Waite. (Press photo by Harold Hamilton, HEHphotos.com) year it’s real hard, because you go to offense, then kick, then go to defense, then return. You never get a break. It’s so tiring.” Patterson said Pickard’s ability to do so many things has made him invaluable. “He’s a great kid and a hard worker. He comes to practice every day and is a great teammate. Because he’s going both ways, it could affect his kicking a little bit and he’s tired now. Now, he’s a football player.” Patterson said a few college programs, including Purdue, the University of Toledo and Bowling Green State University, have shown interest in Pickard’s kicking ability. Pickard said his goal is to kick at the next level, but with so few attempts this season, scouts haven’t had many opportunities to watch him when it counts. “Last year we kicked a lot of field goals,” Pickard said. “This year, if we’re in-

side the 20 we’re probably going to go for it (on fourth down). Sometimes it can be a little frustrating. I also play offense, so I want to do what’s best for the team. When we’re facing a team we’re better than, sometimes I wish we’d kick some more field goals to get ready for the playoffs. In the playoffs, that could be a deciding factor because you (typically) don’t score that many points.” Pickard said he’s had no issue being used as a blocker for the bruising Wojciechowski. In fact, he called that particular task “awesome.” “I like it, knowing you’re blocking for a kid who’s about to reach 2,000 yards and you’re doing your job,” Pickard said. “For us to win games, he’s going to have to run for a lot of yards. If he does, you’re doing your job. When some linebackers see me they say, ‘There’s no way I’m letting this

kid block me.’ Jake basically says he loves it when I’m in the game because I’m a good blocker. You don’t mind it at all.” When this season does end, Pickard will have been a part of four state playoff teams and two Northern Buckeye Conference championship teams. He’s been named first-team All-Ohio as a sophomore and junior and blocked for a 2,000-yard rusher and been a team leader. He said a deep run in the playoffs and earning allstate honors one more time would be icing on the cake. “I don’t want it to end,” Pickard said. “I would love to do what my brother did and three-peat (being named) all-state. Other than that, I’m happy with how my high school career went. Some kids don’t get to play in the playoffs, and I’ll see it in all four years.”

I think of all the laughter, the smiles and all the fun and before I even know it, my tears have once again begun. For, although it brings me comfort to walk down memory lane, it reminds me how, without you, life has never been the same. You are missed so very much! Your loving husband Cody
