Ex-sergeant goes to Supreme Court By J. Patrick Eaken Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com Convicted child molester Danny Wyatt Newton has filed a writ to have his conviction and sentence reviewed by the U.S. Supreme Court. Airman Basic Newton was found guilty by a jury of enlisted military personnel of attempted sodomy upon a child under 12 years of age, conspiracy to obstruct justice, indecent liberties, and sodomy upon a child under 12 years of age during a general court martial proceeding convened at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, on December 21, 2010. The victim was his then-eight-yearold stepdaughter. The East Toledo native and 1995 Waite High School graduate, previously a staff sergeant, received a dishonorable discharge, confinement of 25 years, forfeiture of all pay and allowances and reduction in rank to E-1. Newton is currently at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, serving his sentence. On October 1, 2013, the United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the findings of guilty and the sentence. Military appeals exhausted, Newton’s next course of action was to file the writ to the U.S. Supreme Court. The

Saying it wanted to clarify its priorities, Oak Harbor Village Council indefinitely tucked away a private organization’s newest proposal for downtown revitalization. Legislation for a Downtown Revitalization Riverfront Overlay District came before council for a second reading at Monday’s regular meeting. But after a lengthy - and often heated - discussion, council voted 4-2 to table the issue. The district is an amendment to current zoning regulations that would open doors to private business owners’ expansion plans downtown, especially along the banks of the Portage River. The legislation paves the way for things such as gazebos, outdoor seating, bait shops, river walkways and even an amphitheater. But the district’s introduction took a troubling turn in recent weeks as the public confused the role of the village in future downtown development. “I personally think we should put it on the burner,” Councilwoman Sue Rahm insisted. “It has become a distraction for what we are trying to do. I have found no overwhelming support for it. I think it would be an injustice to residents of Oak Harbor.” Rahm explained the village had generated positive momentum in the last six months by finding a new administrator, hiring a different engineering firm to address major flooding problems and working to keep the budget in line in tight times. “People had hope we were on the right track,” she said, noting she had felt a shift in community spirit from the days when she collected signatures for her run for council last fall and heard endless complaints from disgruntled residents. The zoning request is merely a tool that would allow private businesses to possibly make changes that could trigger economic growth downtown, Mayor Bill Eberle said. A majority of residents think the village is driving this revitalization with taxpayer dollars, Rahm said. And that is not true, no matter what they believe, she emphasized. The village has no financial ties to any revitalization projects, Administrator

Supreme Court has set September 29 for his writ to be “distributed to conference.” If the court chooses not to hear Newton’s argument, another writ can be filed. The writ refers to constitutional issues relating to how the military court and military police handled evidence and other issues. Virginia police officer Allen Perry, who is helping with legal research, alleges that the military police violated Newton’s constitutional rights repeatedly. He said he saw military police get away with procedures that he could never get away as a policeman in a civil setting. Perry says he witnessed constitutional

That’s not the case. You don’t burn the constitution when you join the military.”

Supreme court Continued from front page Still maintains innocence Newton has maintained his innocence since the ordeal began in 2008. It was then that his stepdaughter began telling extended family members that her stepfather was asking her to commit sexual acts. A conversation between the daughter and Newton’s wife was recorded and found on a computer during a search. Newton said during one of two polygraph examinations, which he passed, that on April 9, 2008, he attempted to call his stepdaughter, who was staying with her maternal grandmother in New York State during a time he had just returned from a temporary duty assignment in Wichita Falls, Texas. After receiving no answer, he attempted to call his wife, an Air Force staff sergeant stationed at Camp Victory in Baghdad, Iraq. It was during that phone conversation with Sherry, who was crying, that he was told his stepdaughter was accusing him of illicit behavior while the family was together in Virginia and prosecutors say the incidents continued from August 2005 to April 2008. On September 30, 2008, Newton was approached by the Air Force Office of Special Investigations while at Fort Meade, Maryland. He was given a Miranda warning and was advised that criminal charges were being filed under Article 120 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice for indecent acts with a minor. Military justice attacked After his court martial, in their argument to the appeals court, Newton’s attorneys presented seven points, including inconsistent testimony from the child. The appeal resulted in several of Newton’s convictions being overturned, but his sentence was not reduced. A second appeal also failed to get a sentence reduction. “The whole process has just been a joke, but that last appeal was worse than any of them,” Perry said, citing a military justice with a high conviction rate where prosecutors and police put too much emphasis on winning their case. AB Newton is now getting help from friends, including Perry, who are researching case law that Newton cannot find in the prison law library. He also is hoping to get assistance from the Midwest Innocence Project, a non-profit corporation which studies causes of why innocent people are convicted. He finished his paperwork for that on Tuesday. Two weeks ago, The Press received a letter written by Newton in prison. In the letter, he attacked the military justice system. He alleged in the letter that his stepdaughter, who testified at his court martial, was coached by prosecutors and Sherry’s elder family members who first reported

The Newton family. From left to right are, younger brother Adam Newton, father Dan Newton, mother Jamie Newton, and Danny Wyatt Newton. the alleged incidents. Newton has even attacked his own attorneys who handled the court martial and appeals. “The prosecution trained a witness to parrot a specific combination of words to establish, in the eyes of military law, legal and factual sufficiency, despite having no relation with the truth. This extended to sentencing, where carefully crafted impact statements were recited to elicit the maximum emotional punch in the mind of a jury,” Newton wrote. “Like ‘reality’ TV, jury members are presented with an artificial view of reality and emotions, to the detriment of many lives of those wrongly convicted, their family and friends. That my lawyer(s) did an exclusively bad job is something I have to prove after the fact, while confined in a military prison.” Among letters of clemency written to the appeals court are eight written by family, including his wife, and 32 additional letters written by friends and associates, most of them military personnel. Danny and Sherry met in 1997 and married in 2001, and her daughter was 4-years-old at the time. Newton, who joined the Air Force in 2002, specialized as a communications radio operator until his arrest. When Sherry first learned about the child reporting the incident to family members, she hesitated to tell military authorities. She, too, was court-martialed for conspiring to obstruct justice while supporting her husband and received a reduction in rank as her sentence, but Perry said since she has gotten her rank as staff sergeant

back. “Sherry is not complicit in this, she just didn’t do what she should have done,” Perry said. Still serving in the Air Force, Sherry attacked the military justice system in her clemency letter for her husband, stating she would not be married to Danny if she thought he molested her children. “I expected the military panel and JAG personnel to conduct themselves with professionalism and integrity. What I have seen is hundreds of people thrown into turmoil because of the mismanagement of this case,” Sherry wrote. “Both military and civilians now look upon the Air Force that I love so dearly with mistrust because the system is broken. Whose responsibility is it to fix it? To this point, shoddy job performance, smoke and mirrors, and flat out lies have been the norm. None of these belong in the Air Force.” Danny’s mother, Jamie Michelle Newton, and father, Danny W. Newton, both remain behind their son’s cause, tirelessly putting in time behind the scenes to find a way to free him. They have sold a camper to help pay for legal expenses. They, too, believe that the military justice system is flawed, citing an extremely high conviction rate. In a letter written July 12, 2012, Jamie wrote, “Our son has done everything he can think of to prove those wrong who put him in this predicament, (and) so have we… We know, God knows, and maybe someone will be good enough to know Danny is innocent.”

Parcels to be forfeited

After two attempted sheriff’s sales resulted in no bids, two parcels of land in Lake Township will go through the forfeiture process. The parcels on Plumey Road were offered for sale on Aug. 7 and 21 but attracted no buyers, according to the Wood County prosecutor’s office and will be offered to the appropriate political subdivisions, including Wood County, Lake Township, Lake Local School District and the Penta Career Center. If none of the entities files a petition with the Wood County Common Pleas Court within 10 days the property will be forfeited to the state. The township trustees Tuesday directed Mark Hummer, township administrator, to research the parcels to determine what taxes and assessments may be owed before deciding whether they want to acquire the property.

Levy reduction

The Wood County commissioners have requested the county budget commission once again reduce collections of the Adult and Protective Services levy by 50 percent during 2015. The reduction will continue to save county taxpayers about $1.83 million. The commissioners credited the Job and Family Services Department staff for being responsible with expenditures funded by the levy,

Lake Twp.

With Rossford’s exit, dispatching questions loom By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com After receiving official notice the City of Rossford will be ending its contract with Lake Township for emergency dispatching service at the end of year, township officials say they plan to re-assess the dispatching system before making any decisions on how to proceed. The township has been providing dispatching service for Rossford and the villages of Walbridge and Millbury, but Rossford has accepted a proposal from the Wood County Sheriff’s Department for the service and notified township trustees Aug. 29 of its intent to terminate its current contract on Dec. 31. “City council has determined the best alternative going forward is to secure these services through the Wood County Sheriff’s Office,” the letter, signed by Mayor Neil MacKinnon, III, and Edward Ciecka, city administrator, says. Under the contract with the villages and Rossford, the township apportions costs by call volume, resulting in Walbridge paying about $50,000 annually and Rossford about $122,000. The town-

ship share is about $130,000. Sheriff Mark Wasylyshyn in June made separate presentations to Rossford and Lake Township officials about offering the service from his department in Bowling Green. According to the figures he presented, his department could provide the service for less than what it is now costing the villages, township and Rossford. The sheriff said at the time it costs about $65,210 a year for a full-time dispatcher at the county department, He estimated annual fees for the expanded service would be about $8,500 and a one-time fee for setting up a record management system would be about $35,230. Ed Ciecka, Rossford administrator, said last week the city’s agreement with the county is for four years. Annual costs will be $65,210 plus a software maintenance fee of about $7,000. There will be one-time start-up fee for record management of about $40,000. If the sheriff added two dispatchers to serve the township, villages and Rossford, it would cost roughly half what dispatching service is now costing those entities now, Mark Hummer, township police chief, said after the sheriff’s presentation.

He added that he would be “remiss” to not recommend contracting with the sheriff for the service if the cost figures were accurate. But cost is just “one piece of the puzzle,” Melanie Bowen, who chairs the board of trustees, said last week after the Rossford letter was read. Hummer said he believes the decision by Rossford was driven primarily by costs. “We want to make sure we provide the best possible service,” he said. A contract the township has with LifeStar, which provides dispatchers for the township’s communications facility on Lemoyne Road, is set to expire next April. Hummer and Bowen said one option open to the township is to contract with the City of Northwood for the service. The city has been part of a study of possibly merging systems into a regional format along with the township and villages of Millbury and Walbridge, Rossford had also been participating in the study. Another option could be to contract with Perrysburg Township, Bowen said, adding the county’s population distribution in the north end and proximity to Lucas County tends to favor a regional format.

After a recent session, the Ottawa County Grand Jury returned indictments against Max Olson, 35, and Derek Thayer, 36, both of whom are being held in the Ottawa County Detention Facility. The men have each been charged with three counts of breaking and entering and one count of theft, all felonies of the fifth degree. According to Genoa Police, the men were allegedly stealing scrap metal from a local business on several occasions in August. Also indicted were: Robert Garcia, 33, who is also being held at the Ottawa County Detention Facility, has been indicted on one count of Domestic Violence after he allegedly caused physical harm to a family or household member on Aug. 9. The charge is a felony of the fourth degree, based on Garcia’s prior domestic violence conviction. Kevin Netter, 33, and Nicole Netter, 36, both of Toledo, were indicted on charges of Theft and Forgery after they allegedly stole checks from a Clay Township resident, then cashed them at various banks throughout the area. Michael Metzgar, whose last known address is Cincinnati, has been indicted on multiple felony counts of possessing child pornography. According to Carroll Township Police reports, a computer belonging to Metzgar was found to contain pornographic images of children Donald Dudrow, Jr., 51, of Elmore, was indicted on three counts of Receiving Stolen Property, all felonies of the fourth degree, for allegedly possessing several firearms stolen from a Harris Township residence. Thomas Burdge, of Genoa, was charged with one count of Receiving Stolen Property, a felony of the fifth degree, for being in possession of two riding lawn tractors stolen from the same property. Christopher Blessing was indicted as a result of an investigation of a May 5 rape on Put-in-Bay. On Aug. 27, Blessing was located in a vehicle during a traffic stop and taken into custody by Deputy John Carpenter. He was booked into the Ottawa County Jail and subsequently entered a plea of not guilty and released on $100,000 bond. Summonses were issued for Dudrow, Jr. and Burdge. Both are scheduled to make their initial appearance in the Ottawa County Court of Common Pleas on Sept. 15. Warrants were issued for all other defendants.

Tour teaches water quality By Stephanie Szozda Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com

“

...and it’s like they don’t understand or they don’t care – but they did care for three days when they needed water.

“

The Lake Erie Waterkeeper Group recently took more than two dozen citizens on its annual Eco Tour of the Maumee River. This year’s tour was especially successful, in part by the rise in concern for water quality in the area due to the recent water crisis. “People just don’t understand the magnitude of this and drinking water should really bring the issue to the top,” said Len Syrek. “I belong to Urban Waters, Partners of Clean Stream, and I’m on the board of the Lake Erie Water Keepers,” he said. “I have an opportunity to speak to a lot of people and, for whatever reason, I do not believe that the general populous really knows how bad this is. “I show people that (water bottle of algae from around the intake) and it’s like they don’t understand or they don’t care – but they did care for three days when they needed water,” said Syrek. Those participating in the tour on the Sandpiper Boat learned about the interconnectedness of the waterways in our areas and how different pollutants and their sources affect the state of the water and the ecosystem it supports. The lecture focused strongly on phosphates, which is believed to feed the algal blooms. The pollutant originates from waste water, manure, fertilizer and even storm water. “The public and the government officials have known about this for a very long time, for over 40 years and I know they had a law at one point that limited the phosphates that could be dumped in our lake, and the water did get clean and the algal blooms decreased,” said Helen Krompak a cruise participant who has an interest in environmental policy. During the hands-on lesson, partici-

pates used test strips to check the phosphate levels of buckets of water taken from around the Toledo Waste Water Treatment Plant, with a goal of learning how to test water sources in their areas, including streams and drainage dishes. The levels came back low. Although the results of such testing would not be admissible in court, the results could be submitted to authorities to help them to determine where potential problems may be. “I live in the country, I live in Curtice – we live across from farms and where we live was a former farm, so I’m just interested in what our ditch is going to show when we test it,” Krompak said. “Wouldn’t it be great to be able to swim in this river? Wouldn’t it be nice if we could actually have fishable, swimmable waters here?” asked Sandy Bihn, Lake Erie Waterkeeper executive director at the end of the tour. “Don’t we owe that to our kids? These are great resources. Fresh water is so scarce worldwide. These are great waters that we need to protect.” To learn more about the Lake Erie Waterkeeper Group. visit www.lakeeeriewaterkeeper.org.

Randy Genzman said. Rahm said she realizes that and has told others repeatedly but the public perception is different. The zoning change has been driven by an arm of the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce dubbed the Downtown Revitalization Implementation Committee. Its members consist of public and private individuals but it is not an official affiliate of village council, according to council members. “We’re trying to get a parks levy passed. The library has a levy,” Rahm reminded the others. This proposed district stands in the way right now of proving to residents that council is a good steward of taxpayer money and is making good decisions on their behalf, Rahm claimed. The village is working on a $125,000 project to reconstruct the crumbling fire dock off Church Street at the riverfront. Safety, not downtown revitalization, is the main concern propelling that project that has managed to lasso more than $90,000 in pending state and federal grants that currently hang in the balance. The village could lose the money if it doesn’t act on the project that’ll also become a resource for the Portage Fire District. But the dock project and the zoning change have been incorrectly linked together in public opinion as a package deal, Rahm said. The only right thing to do, Rahm said, is to table the overlay district proposal. Councilwoman Jackie Macko disagreed. “We have to understand and educate. I don’t support spending money we don’t have. But this particular ordinance would be the first step toward the future – and it won’t cost the village a thing. Nothing is going to happen unless businesses get the go ahead,” Macko challenged. Councilman Don Douglas sided with Macko. The two also stood together in the final vote, both hoping to save the zoning proposal from being tabled. A lot of time and effort have been invested by the Downtown Revitalization Committee, he noted. “This doesn’t do anything but set the stage for the future – to sustaining this village. I can’t see putting up a roadblock now,” Douglas said. Councilman Jim Seaman said he could see how the riverfront district’s appearance now could intensify confusion. “I am not against downtown revitalization but we need to set priorities. We look like we’re promoting downtown revitalization while we’re trying to get a park levy passed,” he said. Mike Shadoan, a business owner and riverfront property owner, who heads the revitalization group, was visible agitated by council’s comments regarding the zoning change. Dissenting comments and negative people are going to appear whenever any change is suggested, he told council. He insisted business owners need the

zoning change to help them rev up the business district and draw in more customers to feed the economy. And, without it, business owners can’t go after the funding they need to back any projects because the current zoning doesn’t allow for many positive enhancements throughout the district, Shadoan said. “Haven’t you been soliciting funds before?” Councilman Jon Fickert asked. “No,” Shadoan replied. “But you were supposed to reimburse us for the boat dock,” Fickert said, referring to $15,000 the village shelled out in good faith nearly two years ago toward the boat dock project. Shadoan said the group had collected nearly $25,000 in the years past to help pay for benches, flower pots and other beautification projects. But they had not been able to get any companies or other groups to come up with a $15,000 lump sum for the boat docks. “They want to know, “What’s in it for me?” he explained. The downtown committee shouldn’t be going after a lump sum donation to repay the debt, Fickert said. The membership would have to create some kind of fundraising event like buy a brick or paver sale to accomplish that goal, Fickert countered. Rahm wanted to know what the rush is. She noted the group hasn’t even attained its non-profit status yet. Donna Wendt-Elliot was concerned about the revitalization plan that called for some major changes at key intersections in the village, especially the state routes 163 and 19 corridor. Genzman cautioned council not to put major stock in some of the suggested plan sketches. Those sketches are a planner’s vision of what urban renewal looks like, he explained. Some of those suggestions won’t work in a small town like Oak Harbor. Genzman said he also would never back any changes that would pose any harm to that intersection, a major trucking route in Ottawa County. “Don’t put all your feelings into that plan,” Genzman said. “I don’t.” Still, Fickert said he would likely vote on the side of caution and put the issue to rest for now. The legislation isn’t a green light for any project either, Douglas added, still defending the necessity of the zoning change. All projects would have to go through intense review first, including planning commission review and public hearings. “If you want to wait, wait. We’ll wait another 35 years,” Shadoan admonished council.

Cargo shipments rebound from icy start Despite a brutal winter that hampered the start of the shipping season, total cargo shipments on the St. Lawrence Seaway have surpassed 2013 levels for the March through August time period. According to Seaway figures, total cargo tonnage from March 25 to August 31 reached 20 million metric tons, up 3 percent over the same period last year. The recovery has been fuelled by grain exports, increases in road salt inventories for Great Lakes municipalities and an influx of specialty steel and other metals for the automotive and construction industries. Construction materials such as stone and cement have also been in strong demand. Total U.S. and Canadian grain shipments have reached 5.6 million metric tons, up 73 percent over last year. U.S. grain so far this season has totaled 630,000 metric tons, up 13 percent. General cargo tonnage — including specialty steel imports as well as aluminum and oversized project cargo like machinery or wind turbines — has topped 1.5 million metric tons, up 66 percent.

Specialty steel is shipped through the St. Lawrence Seaway to the ports of Cleveland, Detroit, Burns Harbor, Toledo and Milwaukee, and then further processed by U.S. manufacturers for use in the automotive industries. “Despite the late start, year-to-date tonnage at the Port of Toledo has caught up to and surpassed the 2013 shipping season. In addition to increases in dry bulk materials, the Port has experienced a rise in steel coil shipments from both Canada and Italy. Steel arriving from these locations is shipped to processing facilities near Toledo where it is treated and cut to meet the needs of manufacturers throughout the Toledo region,” said Joe Cappel, Director of Cargo Development for the Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority. Year-to-date dry bulk cargo totaled 4.9 million metric tons, with strong increases in construction materials such as stone and cement, as well as road salt. “The fact that Seaway shipments have not only recovered after the season’s icy start but have now surpassed 2013 levels is a testament to the navigation system’s re-

siliency. Vessels have been extremely busy carrying grain for export, steel and aluminum for the U.S. automotive industry and materials for construction and this level of activity is expected to continue until the end of year,” Stephen Brooks, President, Chamber of Marine Commerce, said. Vanta Coda, Executive Director of the Duluth Seaway Port Authority, said it’s taken several months for the Port of DuluthSuperior to rebound from the icy start of the shipping season. “The port has shown strong gains, particularly in general cargo handling and iron ore shipments.” Coda said. “In fact, one-third of the iron ore that shipped out of Duluth-Superior through July was bound for Canadian steel mills or transloaded at a Canadian port on the Seaway for overseas export. Here at our Port Terminal in Duluth, we’ve welcomed six ships from Europe loaded with mining equipment, wind turbine components and other energy-related cargoes as well as a Kaolin clay shipment from Brazil. Another half-dozen general cargo shipments are on the books for fall.”

Allen-Clay fire district to dedicate new HQ By: Press Staff Writer A dedication of the new headquarters building of the Allen-Clay Joint Fire District is scheduled for Sept. 11 at 7 p.m. The district has closed the fire station in the Village of Clay Center and moved the equipment to the new station 2/headquarters at 3155 N. Genoa-Clay Center Road. Tours of the 10,000-square-foot building will be conducted following the dedication until 9 p.m. Approximately 80 persons are on the roster of the station, including command officers, volunteers and part-time and fulltime personnel, said Denny Hartman, district chief. In addition to administrative offices, the headquarters includes training and conference rooms. Hartman said a training room with audio-visual equipment and seating capacity for more than 100 personnel was needed. “Our main goal was to have one place where we can conduct more combined training sessions,” he said. “We used to have to use the cafeteria at the middle school.” A building that housed the former headquarters at the site has been razed. The fire district encompasses the townships of Clay and Allen and villages of Genoa and Clay Center. Funding for the headquarters/station comes from a levy approved by voters in 2000, chief Hartman said. The new station also includes housing quarters for on-duty paramedics. Other district stations are located in Williston and Genoa. Chief Hartman began his career at the

The Sixth District Court of Appeals has ruled in favor of a Lake Township man involved in a child custody dispute. The court ruled Aug. 29 that the Wood County Common Pleas Court erred when it ruled against Andrew Prewitt’s motion contending the lower court lacked jurisdiction in a case filed by Jessy Zielinski-Barnwell, the mother of Prewitt’s daughter. Zielinski-Barnwell had sought a domestic violence civil protection order against Prewitt but was a resident of Adrian, Michigan. The common pleas court granted a temporary protection order and scheduled a full hearing when Prewitt filed his motion. The court found that ZielinskiBarnwell failed to prove Prewitt engaged in domestic violence but in a later ruling denied Prewitt’s motion concerning jurisdiction. The appeals court vacated that decision. Prewitt’s father, Dan, of Pemberville Road, has a lawsuit pending against Mark Hummer, the Lake Township police chief, and Paul Dobson, county prosecutor, alleging the chief illegally removed his granddaughter from his home. Dan Prewitt filed the complaint in May, contending the chief – at the direction of Dobson – violated his Fourth Amendment rights when he “unlawfully forced his way” into Prewitt’s residence on Jan. 13 and removed the girl. Prewitt is asking for a jury trial and $300,000 in damages each from Dobson and Hummer. According to his complaint, Prewitt on Jan. 10 picked up his granddaughter from school with the permission of her father because the girl claimed she had been threatened with a gun by a man staying with her aunt in Sylvania. The girl didn’t want to return to her aunt’s home and she was charged with being unruly and taken to the county’s juvenile detention center, according to police reports. Prewitt contends he immediately contacted the township police when he arrived home with the girl. Prewitt is representing himself in the lawsuit as did Andrew in the domestic relations case. Chief Hummer has said police were following a court order to remove the girl from the home. The common pleas court issued an order May 8 to stop the case so another case involving Dan Prewitt can proceed. Prewitt is a defendant in a case filed by Zielinski-Barnwell in which she contends Prewitt is a vexatious litigator.

He became chief of the Allen Township department in 1990. He then became a parttime deputy chief of the district before be-

ing hired full-time in 2003. He became district chief when Bruce Moritz resigned last year to become chief of the Lake Township Fire Department. Matt Toflinski is the battalion chief of station 2.

Parking won’t be allowed on the south side of Walnut Street to help alleviate traffic woes around Oak Harbor Middle School. In past weeks, Oak Harbor police posted temporary “no parking” signs affecting traffic flow from the middle school to Locust Street, according to Police Chief Steve Weirich. The experiment was meant to gauge if the change could free up traffic problems created when the buses load and unload students as parents and others in private vehicles race to do the same along the busy stretch. Weirich supported an ordinance that came before Oak Harbor Village Council on Monday to make the ban permanent. He noted bus drivers now have “a straight shot out of there” without having to weave around parked personal vehicles. And the safety factor is greatly increased, he added. “Where would I go with all those people,” the chief asked about the drop off/ pickup options for students who don’t travel to school aboard district buses. “They still need to get to school.” Council opted to waive the three readings for the parking ban restriction and unanimously passed the legislation on its first reading.

A fantastic celebration To the editor: Sometimes changing a way of doing things turns out to be a wonderful idea. That is what the newly formed fireworks committee did at Elmore this year since the Elmore Chamber of Commerce was no longer sponsoring the Red, White and Boom. What a fantastic ending to summer by having a great celebration on Labor Day weekend on Sunday with food, music and a spectacular fireworks show. The committee is to be commended for doing a great job, and a big thank you goes out to everyone who helped support this event. May this be the beginning of a tradition of providing a great way to end the last summer holiday weekend. As citizens, we can help to support this by donating to the fireworks fund and letting the committee know they are appreciated. Tom and Betty Miller Elmore

Are you doing things to sabotage your success? You might logically think, “I would never do that, who would!” Strangely enough, many more people do this than you would imagine. Granted, most of them do not realize what they are doing because it happens subconsciously. Your success is sabotaged when you either avoid taking the action necessary for succeeding or engage in success inhibiting behavior. Either way the result is the same; your success is sabotaged. People are motivated to sabotage their success for numerous reasons. One of the most prevalent reasons is having spent so much time and effort making excuses as to why success isn’t possible that their subconscious mind expects failure. As a result of this process, their brain becomes programmed to avoid success in order to be in compliance with this belief system. The brain doesn’t discriminate. It obeys whatever thoughts it’s given. If it receives a constant barrage of reasons not to succeed, then that is the path it will follow. If success is occurring in spite of this, the mind will then do what is necessary to get back on track to failure. Those who do not believe they are capable of success also subconsciously alter their behavior to be in compliance with their belief system. In the face of success, their mind issues warnings such as, “This isn’t me, I can’t do this.” In response, behavior is adjusted in order to prevent results which are contradic-

Dare to Live

by Bryan Golden tory to what the individual has repeatedly told themselves is impossible -- success. The mind works non-stop to bring thoughts to reality. It doesn’t matter if the thoughts are positive or negative. Yet another cause for self-sabotage is when someone feels they do not deserve success. This can happen because of someone’s past actions or be due to a poor selfimage. The mind will not allow success to be achieved by a person who does not believe they deserve it. A fear of being criticized if successful is also a reason for self-sabotage. If one’s circle of friends do not desire success themselves, or condemn those who achieve it, then the fear of being ostracized leads to avoidance of success. So whenever success might be in sight, their mind will steer this person off course to avoid the rejection success will bring. When someone is repeatedly told they will never be successful or amount to anything, their mind is conditioned to accept this assessment as true. Subsequently, the goal of failure becomes engrained as their own self-image. Once again, this process leads to the person engaging in behavior

designed to sabotage their own success. Take a look at your own behavior. Are you sabotaging your success? If you are, it may be for one of the above reasons or there may be some other justification. Regardless of your motivation, you can immediately end any self-sabotage. You are in control of your life. It doesn’t matter what you have been doing. Don’t let your past hold you prisoner. Instead, learn from it. What’s important is the action you take from this point forward. Your mind believes and acts on whatever instructions you provide. You have control over your mental programming. Your mind is just as effective when you believe success is possible, you are capable of achieving it, and you deserve to be successful. A strong belief in yourself and your goals also protects you from negative criticism. It’s your life to live as you chose. You are in the driver’s seat. Don’t allow selfsabotage to prevent your attaining what you really want. Take whatever positive action is necessary in order to get where you want to be.

Toledo paths used to boost physical activity The American Heart Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Northwest Ohio Division is partnering with Daveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Performance Footgear to get local residents walking and living healthy by promoting local walking paths on the national website, startwalkingnow.org. The American Heart Association has been working with local businesses and individuals to identify official walking paths in communities across the country. In the Northwest Ohio area, there are more than 175 certified paths and Daveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is the 2014 Walking Path sponsor of all of them. Companies, organizations or individuals interested in becoming part of this network and hosting a path will be eligible to receive American Heart Association signage and assistance in setting up the paths. My Heart. My Life is the American Heart Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national initiative that champions walking because it has the lowest dropout rate of any physical activity. The Toledo-area walking paths are part of a system of thousands of such paths designated across the country today. In January 2010, the American Heart Association defined the seven key factors to ideal cardiovascular health. Physical activity is one of those factors, but only 15 percent of American adults achieve the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommended levels of moderate aerobic exercise (150 or more minutes per week). The â&#x20AC;&#x153;My Heart.

My Life,â&#x20AC;? said James Mason, the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exciting to see our community work together to make positive strides to improve the health of our residents.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Healthy lifestyle choices should be a community priority. Nearly 67 percent of Americans are overweight and are at risk for heart complications from sedentary lives,â&#x20AC;? said Lori Mika, Heart Walk Director for the American Heart Association, Northwest Ohio Division. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Walking just 30 minutes a day can make a big difference in improving cardiovascular health.â&#x20AC;?

Todak said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many of our walkers choose to walk in honor or memory of their mom or perhaps their children.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The giving page can be linked to a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Facebook and Twitter accounts to let friends and families know they are walking,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hope to raise $35,000 at this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s walk.â&#x20AC;?

“Towns going teal” to raise awareness of ovarian cancer Since their first meeting in 2005, the mission of Ovarian Cancer Connection (OCC) has been to raise awareness about ovarian cancer, to educate women about the early warning signs of the disease, and to support research vital to early detection. In addition to annual events such as the Karen Creque Golf Memorial, the Ellen Jackson Ovarian Cancer Walk and a survivor luncheon, OCC utilizes the month of September –– Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month – as a catalyst to initiate additional special events. “This year, we’re so proud of the level of participation in towns throughout the area,” says OCC founder and president Gini Steinke. “Several area towns have actually agreed to display teal ribbons around street lamps and trees, as well as OCC posters in local business windows.” “Towns going teal include Toledo, Millbury, Genoa, Woodville, Pemberville, Walbridge, Oregon Swanton, Wauseon, Defiance, Liberty Center, Bowling Green, Maumee, Rossford, and Port Clinton. In addition, the University of Toledo Medical Center – where the memorial walk will be held Sept. 20 at 10 a.m.– will paint the campus teal as well with the biodegradable, American-made ribbons and OCC posters. “We have the most wonderful volunteers, sponsors and donors,” Steinke states, “and we consider them the backbone of our success. We’re so thankful for their generous support in helping us provide awareness and educational tools for the community and support for survivors.” On Aug. 28, members of “Team Lulu” stopped in at The Press office, as part of their efforts to display the teal ribbons and decals in Millbury. Team members included sisters Kathy Mannon and Karen Gladieux; Karen’s children Jackson and Jillian; and the women’s cousin Janelle Welling with her youngsters, Eli and Evelyn. The team is named in honor of Mary Lou Davis, Kathy and Karen’s mom, who passed away Sept. 13, 2013 from ovarian cancer. Davis’ mother, Evelyn Lawrence, also succumbed to the disease 20 years ago.

The Bible tells us that our tongue is a small member of our body that can cause great damage. It compares it to a small fire that can set a forest ablaze. In the Bible, St. James tells us that if anyone can control their tongue, it proves that they have perfect control over themselves in every other way. He also tells us that sometimes our tongue praises our Heavenly Father, and sometimes it breaks out into curses against men who are made like God. Holding our tongue is not always an easy thing to do; however, we should try not to speak badly or spread rumors about others. Gossiping and spreading lies are

not good and often can prove quite harmful and hurtful. When we know of someone who is constantly speaking badly of others, we must realize that they are probably also rumoring about us when we are not around. There is nothing that reflects a person's character more than what they say and the way they speak about others. A good person is kind and truthful, and they can be trusted not to speak of the faults of others. God wants us to live in harmony with our friends and loved ones, and holding our tongue will help us to develop a Godly relationship. My brethren, this ought not to be so. R.S.V. James 3:10

Late models to return to Fremont Speedway in 2015 By Brian Liskai Special to The Press Liskai2x@roadrunner.com

Genoaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bassitt in the Big Leagues now By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com

take your lumps, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to learn from it and then obviously make the next outing even better.â&#x20AC;?

Chicago White Sox pitcher Chris Bassitt struck out Detroit Tiger slugger Miguel Cabrera on a called third strike for his first major league strikeout. Striking out the former Triple Crown batting champion was enough to bring national media attention to the 6-foot-5, 210 pound Bassitt, a 2007 Genoa High School graduate who played collegiately at the University of Akron. The 25-year-old right hander was promoted from Double A straight to the Majors to pitch the second game of a doubleheader on a Saturday night at U.S. Cellular Field in Chicago. After striking out Cabrera, Bassitt went on to pitch two scoreless innings before the Tigers registered three straight hits to begin the third, leading to a pair of runs. The Tigers brought home three more runs in the fourth inning on a two-run single by Ian Kinsler and an RBI groundout by Cabrera. Looking up and facing â&#x20AC;&#x153;Miggyâ&#x20AC;? and the rest of the Tiger lineup was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;dream come trueâ&#x20AC;? for Bassitt, who admits to being nervous at game time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It still hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t registered at all,â&#x20AC;? Bassitt said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was pretty surreal. Everything happens so fast, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really not set in â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it really isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just incredible to play baseball in beautiful stadiums and in front of 40,000 people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surreal. There was definitely some extra adrenalin.â&#x20AC;? In 6.1 innings, Bassitt gave up five earned runs, seven hits, struck out four and walked four. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It could have gone better, but the Tigers basically have the best hitting team in the big leagues,â&#x20AC;? Bassitt, talking to The Press from Minneapolis on Wednesday, said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You are going to take your lumps and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get adjusted to this level. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are different things at each level â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from Double A to Triple A, obviously. This is the biggest jump, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to

Bassitt fans in Chicago In Chicago, there were about 70 friends and family members cheering Bassitt on, including his former Genoa High School coach, Danny Clayton, and Genoa Little League President Lee Nissen. Afterwards, Bassitt got to spend about an hour with many of them at a Chicago hotel before they went their separate ways. Bassitt, whose family hails from Curtice, says he appreciates the support. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very lucky to have the people

in my life that I grew up playing baseball with, and all the coaches that were there. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very lucky to call them my friends,â&#x20AC;? Bassitt said. He now shares the White Sox dugout with infielder Jose Abreu and veteran Paul Konerko, among others. Bassitt says he feels welcome there, too. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been playing with these guys for three or four years,â&#x20AC;? Bassitt said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(White Sox pitcher) Jacob Petricka, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very close friend of mine for a long time and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been in the big leagues all year this year.

Playing mind games The White Soxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original plan was to send Bassitt back to the minors, and then put him on the 40-man roster on Sept. 1, but instead he stayed on the 25-man roster and is still traveling with the Sox. He expects that most of his work from here on out will be from the bullpen. He says the difference between the Majors and the Minors is the mental challenges that come with every at-bat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is so much data now. Everyone knows how many times you swing at the first pitch, how many times you swing at a fastball on the first pitch,â&#x20AC;? Bassitt said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely a mind game of, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Hey, this is what this guy does and now just go and pretty much attack.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Eventually it becomes, hopefully, your strengths are better than his strengths, and you get him out. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really all it is.â&#x20AC;? Bassitt has told The Press that the twoseam fastball is probably his best pitch. He also throws a four-seam fastball, curve, slider and change-up. His two-seam reaches 95 mile per hour and has plenty of movement. Before entering professional baseball, Bassitt was an All-Mid-American Conference selection while pitching for Akron in 2011. Bassitt was selected in the 16th round of the 2011 draft out of Akron and was instrumental in the Birmingham Baronsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; run to the 2013 Southern League championship, going 2-0 with an 0.71 ERA (one earned run in 12.2 IP) in two postseason starts. He became the 44th player to jump directly from Double A Birmingham to Chicago in the 28 years of the current affiliation and the first to do so since Jose Quintana in 2012. Bassitt had gone 3-1 with a 1.56 ERA (six earned runs in 34.2 innings) and 36 strikeouts with the Barons this season. He had suffered a broken right hand prior to the start of the season and did not debut with the Barons until July 29 after pitching in three rehab games with the Arizona League White Sox.

In an effort to provide racers with a less expensive way to get involved in dirt track racing, Fremont Speedway will incorporate a new division in 2015 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the 602 Late Models. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not everyone who has a desire to race can afford a sprint car or super late model. The engines are the most expensive part of a race car. This 602 Late Model Division keeps the engine costs in check. A brand new crate engine is around $3,000. But the bigger savings comes in not having to rebuild the engine every 8 races. By changing the oil and filter regularly and general regular maintenance, you can run one of these engines for over 60 shows before you need to replace it,â&#x20AC;? said Fremont Speedway Promoter Rich Farmer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fans and drivers have asked for the return of late model racing to the rich tradition of Fremont Speedway and this division will allow that to happen and get more people involved in dirt track racing,â&#x20AC;? added Farmer. Farmer has had one of the late models assembled and says he has about $10,000 in the machine, ready to race. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can purchase a good used late model from any team across the country. This is a great option for those in dirt trucks, street stocks, sportsman divisions who feel they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to spend the money to compete in those divisions any longer,â&#x20AC;? said Farmer. Farmer said there will be shock restrictions and a tire rule in place for the division as well to help keep costs in line. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This class will utilize the 602 crate engine from GM along with the traditional late model chassis. Hoosier tire has worked to bring a tire to the program that will allow for great racing with less expense to the teams. Jim Linder of Linders Speed Equipment has helped to create a cost effective shock program. Jerry Huff of York Fabrication has brought his years of experience in the late model world to this project as well. JEGS Performance has also helped with this project and the second shipment of engines is on order at this time,â&#x20AC;? added Farmer. A meeting for those interested in the 602 Late Model Division will be held Sunday, Sept. 7 at noon in the Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame. Farmer praised former Eldora Speedway general manager Larry Kemp for his help on the development of the 602 late model program. Being consistently good went a long way in winning championships and that was the key for Ashlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ryan Markham as he took the crown for the Attica Raceway Park and NAPA Wayne County Speedwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Late Model Series this year. Starting the opening week-end with a fourth place finish on May 2nd in Attica and his only series win the next night at NAPA WCS, Markham would take the points lead for good following his second place finish on May 24th at the Orrville speedplant. With finishes of sixth, fourth, 15th and third in the last four races to go along with his four heat race wins, which earned him the Innovative Graphics Award for most heat race wins, no one could challenge Markham for the title.

Clay girls soccer undefeated, ranked third in state By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com You can’t see it, but it’s there, a kind of “X” marks the spot. The Clay girls soccer team was ranked third in the inaugural Ohio Scholastic Soccer Coaches Association Division I poll this week, behind Medina and Olentangy Liberty. The Eagles, under coach Scott Wamer, improved to 7-0 after Wednesday’s 7-0 win over visiting Lima Senior. “The target’s out there, even after we were voted first in Northwest Ohio,” senior midfielder and tri-captain Kara Simon said. “Now that the state poll is out there, the target (on us) will get even bigger. It’s pretty cool that we’re a state-ranked team. We’re ready to prove ourselves.” The Eagles have outscored their first seven opponents – Avon Lake (4-2), Southview (3-0), Avon (2-0), Anthony Wayne (2-1), St. Ursula Academy (2-1), Lima Shawnee (5-1) and Lima Senior - by a 25-5 margin. Simon said beating St. Ursula was a huge boost to the team’s confidence. “Probably the hardest teams we’ve played are Anthony Wayne, St. Ursula and Avon Lake,” she said. “Winning that St. Ursula game was a great day. They’ve been our rivals for a while, so beating them on their own field was a pretty great feeling.” The Eagles are looking to regain the Three Rivers Athletic Conference title they won two years ago. Last season, Clay took fourth in the TRAC with a freshman-dominated roster and finished 9-7-1, losing to Northview in the first round of postseason play. “Our goals are the same, win the TRAC and make a deep run in the tournament,” Wamer said. “I’ve set up a schedule that is strong outside of Northwest Ohio. We’re hoping it will help us during league play. Seeing teams like Avon and Avon Lake on your schedule helps you when you have a tough Northwest Ohio opponent like a St. Ursula.” Clay has shown impressive offensive balance so far. Last year’s leading scorer, sophomore striker Karleigh Clere, has six goals and eight assists to lead the team with 20 points. Sophomore striker Alex Vartorella has five goals and four assists, sophomore fullback Sami Heintschel has three goals and six assists, and sophomore

Clay sophomore striker Alex Vartorella (16) in action during the Lima Senior at Clay soccer game Wednesday. Clay sophomore fullback Hanna Gerrard (12) looks on. (Press photo by Scott Grau/www. tracsports.org) midfielder Sydney Hess has four goals and one assist. “To have two sophomore strikers with their abilities is just a huge bonus,” Wamer said. “Karleigh brings this real technical ability. She’s going to beat you with her foot skills and finesse. Then you have Alex, who has flat-out speed and is a little more straight ahead. She just has a gift to put the ball in the back of the net. They complement each other so well because they’re so different.” Junior midfielder Haley Dominique has one goal and two assists, Jena Kulwicki has two goals, Reagan Clark and Simon have one goal and one assist each, Hannah Jehany and Kim Nagel each have one goal, and Marisa Vislay, Marissa Brezvai and Hannah Gerrard have two assists apiece. “That’s a huge thing, to know our team is so balanced and it’s not just one player carrying the team,” Simon said. “Everyone’s contributing. We’ve been able to build some chemistry with some of the

younger girls from last year. We still have some things to work on, like passing better and moving without the ball.” Clay lost four games by one goal a year ago, but Wamer said dressing anywhere from six to nine freshmen last season is now paying dividends. “The experience they got last year has definitely paid off,” he said. “We really started this thing last winter, when we started our offseason conditioning program at 6:30 in the morning in the weight room. That makes a difference when they’re working together like that for a goal and a purpose. The team has been focused for a long time and they’re not playing like sophomores or training like sophomores right now.” No one on the roster has bigger shoes to fill than sophomore keeper Olivia Hornyak, who had 37 saves in six games. Hornyak is replacing four-year starter and All-Ohio keeper Alyssa Heintschel, who is now at Ball State.

“At this point Olivia has taken control of the keeper position,” Wamer said. “Olivia has that ‘wow!’ factor. She makes unbelievable saves you don’t see coming. She had a game-changer against St. Ursula last Thursday.” Wamer said he talked with the team about not letting that state ranking get to their heads. “We’ve got to stay grounded at this point,” he said. “Personally, I’d rather be there at the end of the year than at the beginning of the year.” Simon said the Eagles’ ranking is “very exciting,” but there are still non-believers. “I had a feeling this could be a good year,” Simon said. “Some people don’t really believe in (the poll) and might think Clay doesn’t deserve to be up there. That’s given us motivation to really prove to the people who don’t believe in us that we can win the league and go pretty far in the tournament. We really want to go farther than last year.”

New faces make River East contest a must-see game The Press

By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Regardless of how a team’s season goes, winning a rivalry game can be the highlight of the year. The Clay-Waite rivalry goes back years and began over a half century ago. The two schools are separated by just over five miles. The passion in the Oil Barrel Rivalry, as it is known, exists because of the relationships between people from both schools and both communities’ passion for football. However, this year, the coaches in charge of what happens on the gridiron are relatively new to the rivalry. Clay leads the series 32-11-3, has won two straight games and six of the last eight against the Indians. Currently, both gridiron programs are in rebuilding mode. Clay is led by Mike Lee, now in his second year, and Waite’s top man is Dan Chipka, a rookie head coach. Lee is known in the area for his success as the former coach at Woodmore, and Chipka, a 2006 Anthony Wayne graduate, successfully ran Bowsher’s offense before coming to the east side. Last season, Clay went 2-8 overall and 0-7 in the Three Rivers Athletic Conference and the Indians finished 2-8 and 2-3 in the City League. In Week 1, Clay jumped out to a 22-point lead before holding off a late rally to defeat Sylvania Northview, 22-14. The Eagle rushing attack was the difference as tailback Aaron Seymour led the way with 96 rushing yards and a touchdown, wide receiver Ryan Fournier scored on a 78-yard touchdown and wingback Tyler Mildenberger scored from 28 yards out. It was a sign that the offense is adjusting to the wing-T that is being installed by Lee. The success of the rushing attack will come down to the offensive line, which is led by center Joe Kiss and guards Trenton

GAME OF THE WEEK

Oil Barrel Trophy Clay Eagles vs. Waite Indians MOLLENKOPF STADIUM Friday, September 12 7 p.m.

Senior quarterback Jeremy Pratt looks to throw in the Indians’ loss to Genoa. (Press photo by Russ Lytle) Gast and Josh Harrison. “It’s taking some work,” he said. “It looks real good in practice because our scout team is not up to par to what we’ll face in games. It takes time to get adjusted to the size and speed of the other team. We had some breakdowns early and in the second half, we had a couple big plays and it finally came together. We ran a lot of misdirection and it paid off for us.” Despite the fact that his team had a winning start, Lee is preaching patience. His club saw a large group of seniors graduate last summer and he is dealing with an inexperienced bunch. “We’re looking to the future, and it

looks bright,” he said. “We’re optimistic, but it’s going to take time. We’re headed in the right direction, and we’re working very hard with these kids. I’m really proud of how hard they’ve been working. With some great effort, we can make some changes.” While Lee has never faced Chipka, he is impressed with what Chipka did at Bowsher. “He’s going to do a great job,” Lee said. “He did a great job with the offense with Bowsher when we scrimmaged them last year. I was impressed with him.” Despite being new to the rivalry, Chipka is excited about competing for the Oil Barrel Trophy, or the River East Bowl,

as the game is often nicknamed. “Rivalry games always have big implications on the season ahead,” he said. “But for us, this game means everything. The proximity of the two schools makes for quite a ‘backyard bash’ and the overall totals (Clay’s 32 wins of 46 games) of the matchup only fuel our hunger to make a statement. Since taking the job in February, I have had September 12 circled on the schedule.” If Waite is to reverse its fortune against Clay, it will have to neutralize the Eagles’ rushing attack. “The key to slowing any offensive attack is playing with great technique and maintaining gap integrity,” Chipka said. “Clay does a good job of disguising the football and keeping their rushing attack balanced. However, we feel that if we can execute the game plan and control the line of scrimmage that we will be in a position to have a lot of success.” In Waite’s season opener against Genoa, the Indians lost, 41-14, but quarterback Jeremy Pratt ran with the football 22 times for 140 yards, almost seven yards per attempt, and a touchdown. Chipka says it will be up to wide receivers Ronnie Sanders and Diondre Irish, running backs Kelvin Downer and Nate Houle and tight end Anthony Ashford to help complement Pratt on offense.

Your Services Change, Your Prices Change, Why Does Your Yellow Page Ad Stay The Same? An ad should be flexible... Like your business. Not chiseled in stone like a stagnant yellow page ad. So consider this... 1: With cell phones, caller i.d., internet directories, search engines and competing phone books there is less reason to go to a phone book with your ad in it. On the other hand, you have The Press in your hands just like your potential customers living or working in 33,892 homes and businesses in your market area. For less than $21 a week, you can reach them in The Press Expert Section. 2: You can frequently change the size and copy of your ad in The Press to advertise seasonal offers, special prices, new products & new services. 3: Each lively issue of The Press is full of news, information and features from 20 towns and their surrounding areas in Lucas, Ottawa, Sandusky and Wood Counties.
