Political season under way It is now the political season and there are several interesting races. Almost 20 years ago, in the midst of a race for County Commissioner, I began to receive Sound Off letters in support of a particular candidate. When I contacted the candidate about advertising, I was told there was no need because the letters were free! As much as I believe in democracy and free speech, we happen to be a newspaper that survives on advertising … political or otherwise. Therefore, long ago we set a policy of no letters for or against candidates running for office. We do, however, allow letters regarding community issues such as school levies. Those, we believe are in the community interest. nnn

By JOHN SCHAFFNER Publisher The Port Clinton Schools took a new twist at the Cornerstone Ceremony for the new Middle School currently under construction near Port Clinton High School. The district invited the top officers of the Grand Lodge of the Free and Accepted Masons of Ohio to formally dedicate the cornerstone that will carry the Masonic insignia into the future of the building. Bradford A. Goebel, the Grand Master of Ohio Masons, went through a very special ceremonial procedure to formally dedicate the cornerstone, applying the principals of Free Masonry. He was joined by 11 other officers of the Masons of Ohio, an equal number from Oliver H. Perry Lodge 341 in Port Clinton and seven from the 11th Masonic District. “Throughout history, Masons have leveled cornerstones of schools, churches, local government and public buildings. The Masons laid the cornerstone at our Nation’s capital in 1793,” said Port Clinton School Superinten-

dent Pat Adkins. “It is considered a great honor by Masons to perform this service in their communities and we are pleased to have them with us today. “The Masonic cornerstone ceremony is an established opportunity to begin the ‘life’ of a new building. Each day this construction site is alive with workers crafting our new facility. It is hard to believe that in less than a year our new middle school will be full of life.” As part of the ceremony, the Masons brought a cup of concrete and a trowel to place the first part of mortar onto the cornerstone. The process was repeated by local school officials and by a group of Port Clinton fifth-graders who will be the first to go through the new facility next year. As has been the case throughout the process, Adkins acknowledged the past. “Life as we know it will change. For the first time since 1872 there will not be a school on the Fourth Street block. We must honor and remember our past, just as the ceremony today is rooted in ancient tradition, we will keep our history alive.”

The Port Clinton Soccer Boosters Club would like to extend our gratitude to all those who helped make the annual Stadium Night a success. A big thank you goes out to our gold member sponsors: Raymond James, Great Lakes Communications, OK Rental and US Gypsum for their generous donations. We would also like to thank Carey Clum and Seth Benner for their help announcing the game, and the PCHS Cheerleaders and Pep Band for providing extra spirit and cheers. Also, a thank you to our guest teacher goal keepers for their support during the half time. We greatly appreciate the generous donations of food for the after-game feeds that were provided once again by Arby’s, and the flowers for our soccer moms from Otto & Urban Florists. None of this would be possible without the hard work of our fabulous soccer families and friends, and our community sponsors. Thank you to everyone for your support. Cathy Bowers PCSBC President

Ohio 53 We are writing to inform people who drive in Bay Township that several improvements have been made on Ohio 53. We believe that these changes will improve the road’s safety. State Route 53 (Fremont Road) runs through Bay Township from Ohio 2 to Muddy Creek. In recent years, numerous crashes and several fatalities have occurred along this dangerous stretch of highway. This has been a matter of grave concern to us. Now we are very pleased to report that several safety features have been implemented by the Ohio Department of Transportation. Changes you will see on Fremont Road are: • “No passing” stripes at major intersections. • “No passing” stripes at the curve approaching Muddy Creek. • Junction signs indicating that there are intersections ahead. • Larger “road name” signs placed in advance of intersections. • “Fire station” signs moved to appropriate locations. • “Stop bars” on intersecting roads indicating where traffic is to stop. Other long range plans will improve safety on Route 53 in the future but it is a very busy highway. We know that it is not possible to prevent every accident there. Therefore, we urge drivers to observe all traffic laws. Parents, if your kids drive on Route 53 to high school or college classes, please discuss the importance of getting an early start, driving defensively and obeying traffic laws consistently. We urge everyone to drive no faster than the speed limit. And winter is coming so please slow down to a safe speed when the highway is covered with snow or ice. Take your time, stay alert and stay alive! Sincerely, Dan Mulligan, Virginia Park, and Gerry Perry (Trustees) Bonnie Kaspar (Fiscal Officer)

Vote yes for BCS Are you the person you wanted to be? Why or why not? I am very thankful to be a part of the Oak Harbor community and past employee of the Benton-Carroll-Salem Local School system. I owe a huge thank you to this community. As an ordinary kid from Gibsonburg, this community has given to my family and me for 35-plus years. My years as agriculture education instructor at Oak Harbor High School were beyond my wildest imagination for my career. Why? Because of the support and confidence Oak Harbor gave to me. Now is the time to consider the future of our schools, and I believe the students of today are just as worthy of our support as the kids of yesterday. It takes more that parents and teachers to educate the youth — community involvement is also vital to the success of the students — the greatest natural resource in our community. I remember times we attended school on Saturdays because of shutdowns with no money. I was hired at the state minimum of $7,900 in 1976. I also remember that 10 years ago, the agriculture, business, family and consumer science and occupational work adjustment departments were taken over by Penta Career Center to avoid financial problems at the local level, but these classes and programs were still offered. I have also been employed during the glory days of B-C-S, in the late 1980s and 1990s, but those days are gone. I worked as hard as possible along with many other staff members, to give everything that we could to create an atmosphere for learning, so that the youth of this community could be educated regardless of the financial position of the district. We must make some major decisions today to guarantee an education to the youth of the present and future. I ask you to vote yes for this emergency level in November. I know that this will put a burden on many in our community, but how much of a burden will be put on our youth by voting no? I ask you again: are you the person you wanted to be? Why or why not? I am a lucky one. I am the person I wanted to be. I am sure that my education has given me better opportunities at success in my life. I attended The Ohio State University and became a teacher of agriculture, by choice, not by chance. I loved working with the youth of Oak Harbor for the past 35 years. Many of these students have excelled in their lives because this community gave them the greatest facilities and learning opportunities. Yes, I am who I wanted to be, and I hope that the graduating classes in the future can say the same. The decision for them is in our hands now. Let’s sacrifice a little now, to give this generation a better chance at success so that they can become the people they want to be!

The wines we sourced from this deal make up a considerable part of the repositioning of a particular ultra-premium Zinfandel and Zin-based blend producer that was sold a year or so ago. As part of the deal one of the brands was discontinued altogether and we purchased all of those wines and others from the flagship brand as they sought to maintain the high-dollar price point by reducing inventory. This is a classic deal for Cameron Hughes Wine but it’s also a one-time deal as they severely cut back the 2010 contracts, so grab what you can of these incredible values.

St. Boniface School celebrates Grandparents, VIP Day With parents and grandparents, aunts and uncles, and even an occasional sister-in-law, students were surrounded by the people they love who love them right back during the annual St. Boniface School Grandparents and VIP day. The day began with the visitors joining students for song practice and the celebration of the Mass. The adults then visited over coffee and donuts while the students and teachers prepared the classrooms for their guests. Classes had special activities for students and their VIPs to share, as well as demonstrations of the newest classroom technology. Though rain prevented an outdoor recess, all enjoyed a spaghetti dinner together. Ki Jadwisiak, visiting with his great-niece and nephew, was amazed at the students’ proficiency with computers. “The first thing that surprised me is how good these little kids are on computers. They just take out those out and whip up the assignment and show what they’re working on. The second thing,” he added,” is this is the cleanest school! I’ve never seen a building this well taken care of.” When asked what she enjoyed the most, Kindergartner Ava Grieger, accompanied by Anita Grieger and Karen Landry, said she liked making the “stained glass” apple craft. Her VIPs enjoyed seeing her daily journal and class-
room and just being in class with her. Yvonne Rosiak was impressed with how friendly everyone was, and found the most interesting thing was the work the students do with the classroom smartboards. “It was a very, very interesting day.” “It was invigorating,” Jadwisiak said. “The old need the youth.” But the very best part, students and grandparents and VIPs agreed, was having the opportunity to spend the day with the people they love. St. Boniface Catholic School serves students in grades K-5 of all religions, racial, ethnic and income backgrounds. For information on the curriculum, admissions policies and registration contact the school office at 4198989-1340 or visit the website at www.ourstb.com.

Monarch butterflies are a thing of beauty and the kindergarten students in Susie Adams class at Immaculate Conception School are learning first-hand how they grow and develop. Adams harvested several butterfly eggs and let the students experience how chrysalises are formed and watch the monarch butterfly actually hatch.

Remember the Redskins PHOTO BY BILL MIGALA
Port Clinton running back Cody Smith once again leaves St. Marys tacklers in his wake.
PC tops Sandusky St. Mary’s Team one away from first winning season since ‘90 BY JOHN SCHAFFNER Publisher From a cold driving rain to a spectacular evening for high school football. To Toby Hammond and the Port Clinton Redskins, it really doesn’t matter. The end result is the same. Friday night the Redskins did what they wanted to do in their final home game with a convincing 35-0 victory over Sandusky St. Marys. Exactly how the game was to unfold became clear early on as the Redskins rolled 75 yards on 14 plays, mostly on the ground, taking their first possession on a long touchdown drive. It was capped off by the first of three Diante Laurel touchdowns. Following the ensuing kickoff, the PC defense held St. Marys to a three and out. “I think the first possession on offense and defense was the key for us,” said Coach Toby Hammond. “We took the ball and went right down the field with it and scored. Then it was three
plays and out on defense. That set the tone for the whole game.” From that point on, the Redskins were pretty much dominant on both sides of the ball and on special teams. They ran the ball effectively with Laurel, Addison Rospert and Cody Smith. They passed sparingly, but effectively, making big plays through the air. The defense pretty much kept St. Mary’s on their end of the field all night long, and scored their own touchdown when Jacob Carrisales ran back a 30-yard interception. Finally, Rospert was five for five in extra points. “We probably played as well as we could on both sides of the ball,” said Hammond. “It was our best execution we had all season and we didn’t turn the ball over.” The win left PC with a record of 5-2 overall and 3-1 in the Sandusky Bay Conference. However, the final three regular season games are on the road, and two of them are against SBC powers Huron and Clyde. This Friday night
it’s Perkins, a team that has struggled this season. One more Redskin win will give Hammond’s team its sixth, the first time that has happened since 1990. “I think it is huge for the players and our program,” he said. “Just to see how far we’ve come. Also, it would give us a winning record in the SBC, which is just as important.” Unfortunately, Perkins will be no pushover, but like Margaretta and St. Mary’s before them, they got drilled last Friday night against Clyde. “Perkins is the most athletic team we’ve faced since Genoa,” said Hammond. They were picked third in the league behind Clyde and Huron. They have a lot of injuries and their schedule had Bellevue, Norwalk and Sandusky, Huron and Clyde in their first 7 games. Those are five of the best teams in our area. It is a matter of time until they put it all together. Hopefully it won’t happen this Friday.”
BY JOHN SCHAFFNER Publisher Several years ago, a movie came out about a high school football team from Alexandria, Va., called “Remember the Titans.” The setting was 1971 in a racially charged atmosphere of forced busing and school integration. That same year, 1971, 40 years ago, Port Clinton High School had its own issues that were just as emotionally charged as the issues depicted in the movie. In May of 1971, after 19 years, Joe Lukac’s contract as head football coach was not renewed by the board of education. Many of his supporters and even some of his detractors became incensed by the action. More than 1,500 signatures were gathered in an attempt to reinstate the veteran head coach. Lukac filed a lawsuit to get this job back. Letters to the Editor were printed daily about the issue. In the midst of all this turmoil, along comes a 25-year-old Marc McClain, a three-year varsity assistant who was a star player at Bellevue. Early in his career as an assistant he was barred from PC practices the week before they played Bellevue. Lukac didn’t trust him yet. “When this all happened, the assistant coaches got together and none of us wanted to be the guy to succeed Joe,” said Marc McClain Monday alongside five of his senior players from 1971: Mike Matta, Jim Sass, Gary Quisno and Dan Timmons, along with a conference call participant, quarterback John Rusincovitch. “Finally, I decided to give it a shot, went
through the interview process, and was named ‘acting head coach’ on Aug. 1, 1971, with two weeks to prepare for summer practice.” That whole time frame was a blur for McClain. He and his coaches had 56 kids who wanted to play football, 24 of them seniors and naturally, much of the community vitriol was then directed at him. “I didn’t have time to build up to doing this,” said McClain. “I got lots of phone calls in the middle of the night.” McClain does admit that a more experienced coach might have done a better job with that team. That team opened the season against, who else, McClain’s old team and his old high school coach, Lowell Shaffer and Bellevue. Just like in the movie, it was the last period in school and McClain went outside while the band was practicing. “Earl Warnke saw me and asked me if I was alright.” He paused and then said, “I was really woofing my cookies.” The Redskins managed to prevail 15-7. The closeness of the game would set a pattern for the rest of the season. They played in one tight contest after another. They played to a 6-6 tie with Clay, who had several Ohio State scholarship players. Their only loss came on a last-minute desperation double reverse pass play at Bowling Green. They won their final four games to finish the season as Great Lakes League champions with an 8-11 record.

Coffin’s Corner
A coach’s primary job
I won’t enumerate all the facets of a youth coach’s job. It would take an entire book and more. I will argue, however, that a coach’s primary job is to teach. No, it is not to win; it is to teach kids how to win. Most of that teaching goes on at practice, and I’m going to focus on just one part of coaching: teaching a skill. If you are new coach or a parent trying to help your child learn, these techniques will help make the teaching easier and more successful. Coaching is harder than it looks. It should be obvious, but it is real important to be sure you are teaching the right thing! Techniques may be different from when you learned or from what you see at the college or pro level. You can find all kinds of sources to help with what to teach. Books, videos, and clinics are readily available. Assistants and parents should all be teaching the same skill basics. Head coaches should not assume everyone is on the same page. Teach the adults on your team too. Parents, please watch a few practices or check (briefly) with a coach to make sure how you can best help your child. If a parent teaches one way and the coach another; it puts the child in a very bad predicament. Whatever they do, someone they are trying to please is likely to be upset. It’s a lose - lose situation. It’s also important to consider the
developmental aspects of learning a certain skill set. It’s better to learn to bat off a tee than it is to hit against a pitcher, for example. Good coaches take kids through a steady progression of basic to advanced skills at a pace suited to each player. Be aware that when learning a skill, there will be plateaus and that often, a player will get worse before they get better. Learning something new and using it in competition can take months. Be patient. Use the “whole-part-whole” method. Have a demonstration of the entire skill and break it into parts to teach. Then put all the parts together again. In many sports, a skill will feature a wind-up, a contact and a follow through. Practice each part of the sequence and then coordinate them. Do not look only for the result of the attempt; look for the correct process. Go back to the parts. If someone takes a mighty swing and whiffs, let the player know the follow through was perfect if it was. Build on the good parts and change the parts that need improvement. You will have to repeat this many times, and you will get exasperated when the players can’t do it in competition. It will be easy for them to fall back into familiar patterns under pressure. Another thing to realize is that kids learn in different ways. Some learn by seeing a demonstration and copy-

ing it. Others can listen to directions and understand. A lot of people respond better to understanding what it feels like (kinesthetic). In teaching an overhand throw (which leads to a serving motion), you should demonstrate it; say things like “turn your belly button to the side”; and tell them it feels like a fisherman has snagged their hand from behind and is reeling it in. In practices, try very hard to keep everyone busy. A line of more than 4-5 players is a line with kids in it who are not learning anything. In fact, they are probably distracting others because they are talking or horsing around. Design drills with this in mind. Have different stations going at the same time and the kids moving from one to another. Just because the coach is busy does not mean the kids are. I once asked 2nd graders to tell me what a good coach does. The 1st child answered that “They have a whistle and yell a lot.” Ouch. The 2nd one replied, “They help you get better.” The 2nd kid had the right answer. nnn

the controversy. “He did a good job of keeping us away from all that,” said Quisno. “We were just a bunch of players who loved the game of football and wanted to win.” Dan Timmons emphasized “We didn’t care who got the credit, we just wanted to play and we wanted to win. All year long, that’s just what we did. We always found a way to win.” They were the 1970s version of the “Kardiac Kids.” In their game against Perkins, they were down 14-0 at the end of the first quarter. They came back to score 29 unanswered points in the second quarter. Former Perkins Coach Joe Acierto still shakes his head in disbelief about that game. Jim Sass remembers that they all painted their shoes white and painted a red “Puma” on the side. “Yeah, we were very close on and off the field.” Rusincovitch also noted that “the team really didn’t think about the controversy.” McClain coached only one more year, then went back to Bellevue to run the family restaurant business. One of his frequent customers was Joe Lukac and the two had many cordial conversations about those raucous times. It was 1971 — 40 years ago. To those players who went through that experience, and their coach, it seems like yesterday.

Danbury falls to 1-3 in TAAC BY J. PATRICK EAKEN
PHOTO BY JOHN KOZAK
Danbury’s Cory Schenk battles a Northwood defender for this pass which was incomplete.
Danbury fell to 3-4 overall and 1-3 in the Toledo Area Athletic Conference after getting blasted by Northwood, 52-14, at Biro Field. League leading Northwood improves to 6-1 and 4-0. The Lakers had two touchdown drives in the fourth quarter to account for all of its points and send the sirens on the local EMS vehicles into a high-pitched frenzy. Danbury marched 80 yards on 11 plays, scoring first on a 27-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Lucas Kennedy senior wide receiver Cory Schenk with 4:52 remaining in the game. An extra point kick attempt was blocked. Danbury had four first downs in the drive, which was highlighted by a nine yard by Kennedy, an eight yard pass from Kennedy to Schenk, an eight yard and 15-yard run by freshman fullback Taylon Molnar, and a 16-yard run by Schenk. On Northwood’s next possession, a fumble was recovered by Molnar, playing his outside linebacker position, at the Laker 49. Molnar ran for five yards on first down followed by a 14-yard run by freshman wingback James Dorko. Af-
ter Kennedy covered two yards, Molnar took off for 13 yards, which eventually set up a 16-yard touchdown pass from Kennedy to sophomore wide receiver Jim Chamberlin with 1:37 remaining in the game. Northwood scored four times in the first quarter — first on a three yard interception return by junior defensive end Justin Rohrs, then on a 15yard run by quarterback Nick Russell, then a 12-yard run by junior halfback Evan Perkins, and finally on a 19-yard run by junior halfback Dusten Fullenlove. Northwood added two scores in each of the third and fourth quarters, including a 28-yard field goal by senior Garrett Reighard. The Ranger running game compiled 402 yards on 35 attempts. Danbury had two drives in the second quarter, but neither resulted in points. The Lakers drove 77 yards on 12 plays, reaching the Northwood two-yard line, but was pushed back to the 10 and failed on a fourth down there. The drive included a 33-yard pass from Kennedy to Schenk,
Huron tops Oak Harbor 42-20
a 12-yard run by Kennedy, and a 12yard pass from Kennedy to Molnar. A second drive stalled at the Northwood 31, where Danbury had a first down when time ran out ending the first half. The drive featured a fouryard run by Molnar, a seven-yard carry by Kennedy, and a 12-yard pass from Kennedy to junior wingback David Gast. This Friday, Danbury travels to play on the field turf at Ottawa Hills. The Green Bears are 5-2 overall and 3-1 in the TAAC. Ottawa Hills has defeated Ayersville (42-21), Antwerp (33-0), Gibsonburg (38-0), Hilltop (48-30), and last Saturday defeated Cardinal Stritch 42-21 at Clay High School’s Memorial Stadium. The Green Bears have losses to Genoa, 45-14, and Edon, 54-0. Ottawa Hills is coached by Chris Hardman, who is in his 14th year. They are led by junior running back Will Longthorne.

Both Huron and Oak Harbor are one game behind league leading Clyde, which is 5-2 overall but perfect in the SBC. Friday night, the Fliers routed visiting Perkins, 56-0. This Friday night, Oak Harbor has the honor of hosting the Fliers. Clyde’s two losses have been to Tiffin Columbian, 26-13, and to Eastwood, 35-32.

Mutach’s makes a move Mutach’s is making a move. After more than 100 years in downtown Marblehead, Mutach’s grocery, liquor and specialty meat store will relocate to the former Windjammer Restaurant on the corner of Ohio 163 and North Shore Boulevard in Danbury Township. The Main Street location will close its doors Oct. 16 and according to owner Lisa Sapp, she and her husband Steve are hoping to open the new location Oct. 19. “There is so much enthusiasm from our customers right now,” Sapp said. “It’s overwhelming how many people want to help us move.” The new space — which is more than 4,000 square feet larger than the current store — has been gutted and is being put back together to make room for current stock as well as new offerings. Tables will be set up both inside the store and outside on a new patio for guests to enjoy more sandwich and salad options. The deli and meat counters, grocery and liquor sections will be joined by a coffee shop and expanded
bakery section. Both of those additions are thanks in part to other businesses. Kiedrowski’s Bakery, of Amherst, gave the Sapps a new bakery case for the store and Avery’s, in downtown Marblehead, donated a cappuccino/espresso machine that was going unused. “They are such fabulous business partners,” Sapp said. One thing that won’t change at the new location is the famous meat counter. “You can walk into our store and request a 2-inch cut ribeye,” Sapp said. “People from all over really enjoy that kind of service.” In addition to custom cuts of meat, the store provides deli and cheese trays, special orders for events and, according to Sapp, “whatever anybody needs.” The store has also become known for its wine selection since expanding that department in 1997. And because the space has grown, tasting events once planned for the offseason months will now be offered year-round. The store is open from 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on weekdays and until 7:30 p.m. on weekends, though
that’s another thing that may be expanding. “I’m more than happy to open earlier and stay later,” Sapp said. For now, the couple will play it by ear but are looking forward to the opportunities the new location brings. “We just think this is a fabulous location,” Sapp said. “Traffic is great, parking is great. We are excited.” For information about the store, call 419-798-5203 or visit www. mutachs1907.com.
