TELLTALES ELECTION: Final push BY JOHN SCHAFFNER

I lost my favorite neighbor this past weekend ‌ and a good friend. Bob Johnston and his family moved into the house next door in Hickory Ridge subdivision in 1978. Our families became close and remained that way for more than 30 years. Bob lost a courageous battle with cancer over the weekend. He was a dedicated community person, former Port Clinton School Board member and respected by just about everyone he came in contact with. I will miss him. ——— We had 42 correct entries in our Find Wylie contest last week. Maida Bobenhausen, of Port Clinton, found Wylie in the Frederick’s Agency ad on page 7A of last week’s Beacon.

Yard signs have been placed, candidates are going door to door and the backers of local issues are making the final push for election day — one that could change the Port Clinton City School District forever. Backers of Issue 17 — a $42 million bond issue — are hoping residents will take advantage of this one-time opportunity to get federal funding to help build new schools. Earlier this year, the district received word that it qualified for a minimum $3.2 million in interest-free bonds to assist in the construction of new facilities. The board then voted to put the bond issue on the ballot and in June, a 25-member Facilities Action team was formed. The group, consisting of members of the community and school officials, made a recommendation to the board to place a facilities issue on the ballot.

Piece of history back in PC The year was 1906 and enterprising businessmen had convinced Scott J. Matthews to locate his boat building talents in Port Clinton, where all of the necessary ingredients for a successful boat building business were located, including a deep-water port in the Western basin of Lake Erie as well as direct waterway access to East Coast ports. For the next 70 years, some of the finest boats then built were produced at the Matthews Boat Company. Boats were built for Charles

E. Ringling, Earnest Hemmingway, Arthur Godfrey, sub chasers for the war effort in WWI and landing craft and patrol boats for WWII. Those who wanted the best came to Matthews for their boats. Boats with wood hulls were replaced in 1969 with fiberglass hulls originally built in England and transported to Port Clinton to be fitted and finished. With the once proud company struggling and bankrupt, the last boat was finished in 1975 with the

approval of the court, and delivered to its owner the Molson Brewery family. And so ended a legend. Remaining are many fine examples of the excellence of the Matthews boats and the reason for our history lesson. Bill Van Der Giessen and Tom Thompson recently purchased hull number 69-101, one of the original glass hulls shipped from Halmatic in England and completed in Port

SoundOff Dear Editor: Before you decide how to vote on Issue 17 please think about the implications your vote will have on our community. Will 21st century educational facilities enhance the learning opportunities for our students? Do we want to accept the millions of dollars in savings the one-time federal assistance will provide? Do we want to compete with our neighboring communities and attract families to live in Port Clinton? Will the local economic stimulus of this project over the next three years help bridge the gap until a better economy arrives? Will hundreds of thousands of dollars for our city help fix some streets? Will we be better off with a more efficient, consolidated school system that saves future operating expenses? What can we do with the Fourth Street block to develop or beautify Port Clinton? Do we want progress? We have an opportunity to Change Our Future. The choice is ours to make. Please study the facts carefully. I believe they will show support of Issue 17 is vital to the future of Port Clinton. David Belden P.C. Board of Education Dear Editor, It is “Opportunity Time� for the citizens of the Port Clinton City School system. In sports, it is essential to take advantage of opportunities in order to win. The challenge is to recognize the opportunity and then capitalize on it. Winners do this; especially in a tough situation. They look beyond problems and make something positive happen. We voters have a chance to seize this opportunity to do something positive. By taking advantage of a one-time offer of at least $3 million from the federal government stimulus plan, we can help our local economy. Jobs will be created and our community will be better able to attract new industry in the future. We need to quit looking at problems and start looking for solutions. We need to build better schools. A healthy community is judged by its schools. A diverse group of community leaders has developed a comprehensive plan to improve our school facilities. It’s a good plan. It won’t please everyone or solve every problem, but it will help us all in the long run. We must recognize that our children need up-to-date schools for a first rate education. Make no mistake; we are in competition now. Our students need advanced technology skills to compete for jobs. (New school are equipped for this) Our community is in stiff competition to attract business. (Good schools are a priority.) We are competing for grant money to help our economy. (Stimulus money is guaranteed IF we pass the levy). It is “Opportunity Time�! A YES vote for the Port Clinton School levy will be a vote for our kids and our community. Make something positive happen. Think like a winner. Karen Coffin, Retired PCHS Girls’ Tennis Team Coach

about our children’s educational future. Our preceding generations were supportive of new facilities when Port Clinton graduated the Class of 1964 out of a new high school building. We are asking no more now as parents for our next generations. The safety of our children in aging dilapidated facilities should be of the utmost importance to all the residents of this district. To prepare our children to be more competitive in today’s ever-changing world, we need to make sure that they have modern facilities and technological advances, which will allow them to compete in a global market. Therefore, we urge you to support Issue 17 on Nov. 3 for the Port Clinton City Schools. Port Clinton Elementary Parents Club Board: Nicole Cuevas, president; Jill Martinez, vice president; Peggy Sneider, secretary; and Diane Ball, treasurer Dear Editor: May I share my concerns about Issue 3 in the Nov. 3 election? Issue 3 will create 34,000 new jobs. Are these manufacturing jobs? Or will these minimum hourly wage jobs just shuffle money from the pockets of dreamers to Ohio schools and counties after first lining the pockets of Casino owners, here and in faraway states? Read the fine print. 3. “2 percent to a state problem gambling and addictions fund.â€? Like many addictions, this one to gambling can lead to divorce, loss of job, bankruptcy, homelessness, jail, even suicide. Ask Art Schlichter and Pete Rose if 2 percent is enough to heal those with problem gambling and addiction. 5. “Permit approved types of casino gaming authorized by Michigan, West Virginia, Indiana and Pennsylvania as of Jan. 1, 2009, or games subsequently authorized by those states.â€? Could such future authorization insert changes into Ohio’s constitution? 6. â€œâ€ŚCasino facilities shall be subject to all state and local laws and provisions related to health and building codes, but that no local zoning, land use laws, subdivision regulations or similar provisions shall prohibit the development or operation the casinos at the designated sites.â€? So which is it? Local control or free rein? 7. “Create the Ohio casino control commission which will license and regulate‌â€? A lot of plum jobs for political appointees generated here. Can passage of Issue 3 really benefit Ohioans? Anne McGinnis Parker, Put-in-Bay

Issue 17 will make a difference for our community. Supporting Issue 17 for the Port Clinton City Schools is important to our community for many reasons. Lets look

at just a few of these reasons. Each generation has a moral obligation to contribute to the cause of leaving this world a better place. An important way that we can do this is to provide our children and those of future generations the best opportunity for an effective education. This education gives children the opportunity to grow and learn what it takes to positively contribute to society. Our forefathers provided this opportunity for each of us. Port Clinton City Schools has made positive strides toward making the best use of resources. Having two of our three children attend Catawba Elementary School and seeing it close was challenging, but it was the right thing to do to make the best use of resources available. The building plan included in Issue 17 takes that operational fiscal responsibility another step in the right direction. With construction costs as favorable as we have seen in a long time and the one-chance-only opportunity to have some federal government help, our school district will not get a better deal than Issue 17 offers. A positive outcome on Issue 17 will give the citizens of Port Clinton City School District a source of pride as this area revitalizes. Strong communities have quality schools. Please join us in voting yes on Issue 17. Paul E. and Karen Shaw Dear Editor As members of the local Fraternal Order of Police, we support Issue 3 because of the jobs and needed tax revenues that it will bring to Ohio, including needed funds here in Ottawa County. If Ohio voters pass the issue that would build four first-class casinos in Ohio, Ottawa County will benefit from an additional $1,189,740 in tax revenues, while local schools will get $702,263 in needed income. Our county has been hit in recent years by layoffs and plant closings, like most others in Ohio. We need this additional revenue in order to maintain current staffing levels and to continue offering vital services to residents. Our schools also need the revenue to avoid cutbacks in curriculum and teaching positions. As a member of the law enforcement community, I want to continue to improve the quality of life for all residents of Ottawa County. Issue 3 can help restore financial stability through jobs, economic development and increased tourism in Ohio. Join us in voting YES on Issue 3 on Nov. 3rd. Bruce Szilagyi, President, Port Clinton FOP When I was growing up in the ’50s and ’60s, my parents always told me how important a good education would be to me. Many of you probably heard the same sentiments from your parents. What are the contributing factors to a good education? I believe there are four main ingredients to the education pie. Obviously, good teachers are an important part. Teachers are the conduits through which our kids learn. Just as critical are good teaching materials, such as current textbooks and computers. It is how the students stay current in this fast-paced world. Thirdly, the involvement of the parent in their child’s education helps facilitate the efforts of the teachers and textbooks, making sure homework assignments are completed and the students study. And good school buildings are the final ingredients of the pie. Good school buildings allow for technology and innovative teaching techniques. The Port Clinton City Schools have three of the necessary ingredients for the education pie. However, several of our school buildings place constraints on the educational experience. I know many of you graduated from the present middle school when it was our high school. Just think of the changes that have occurred in technology and education since your graduation. With the present economic situation, is this the right time to ask voters to pass a levy? There probably is never a right time to ask for more tax dollars. But right now, there is a onetime opportunity for the Port Clinton City Schools to obtain “stimulus dollars� to the tune of at least $3,000,000 of 0-interest loan funds. And depending upon how many other eligible school district pass their levies on Nov. 3, the number of “stimulus dollars� available to the Port Clinton City Schools could be significantly higher, perhaps up to $10,000,000. This will save each one of us money in the long run. The building proposal is a good one. The bidding climate for construction is great. And a good education is as important today as ever before. Please consider the impact of your vote on Nov. 3 on the future student population. I urge your support of Issue 17. Walter Wehenkel

has any type of assistance made available to them to help build new schools,� said Pat Adkins, schools superintendent. Adkins says the campaign is a challenge to “communicate a message that our plan is A. educationally sound; B. involves stimulus funds available to our district November only; and C. the economic impact this would have on the city of Port Clinton.� Supporters say the project would provide jobs during the construction of the facilities, bringing in more than $300,000 to the city in income tax, and make the area more attractive for young families.

Dear Editor, Once more Louis Ball has asked me a question, so here goes: Yes, I realize that I pay for my Medicare coverage, the same as Mr. Ball does — $96.40 a month, or $1,156.80 a year. I consider that a real bargain. My secondary insurance, which covers just 80 percent of the 20 percent Medicare does not cover, costs me $294 a month, or $3,528 a year. You can see that my government-funded coverage is a much better value than the private insurance is. Here is where I stand on insuring every American. I agree with the position taken by every other advanced nation around the world. The people of these countries have decided to provide basic medical care to all their people as a moral right. With everybody covered, the cost is spread equally. The young and healthy pay in to cover the older and sicker people, so that when they themselves age, these young people will be covered likewise. It seems to me the only humane thing to do. As a Christian, I am challenged to do unto others as I would have them do unto me. If I were sick or injured and I were too

www.thebeacon.net poor to pay for medical care, I would hope that it would be provided for me anyway. I am ashamed that the people of the richest country on earth choose to make medical care something to be earned, available only if you are rich enough, or if you have a job with benefits, or are old enough or disabled. I always thought we were a generous people. Providing medical coverage through a program like Medicare is not only the moral thing to do, it is also the most economical way to do it. I hope our Congressional representatives will listen to the people and not the insurance and drug industries. Health care for all should not be for profit.

As members of Magruder Hospital’s senior leadership team, while we cannot speak for all Magruder employees, we each individually recognize the impact of up-to-date facilities on the overall performance of any institution, whether it is a hospital or school system.

HAVING MORE RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS

IS NOT THE SAME

AS HAVING MORE MONEY.

When it comes to the number of retirement accounts you have, the saying “more is better” is not necessarily true. In fact, if you hold multiple accounts with various brokers, it can be difficult to keep track of your investments and to see if you’re properly diversified.* At the very least, multiple accounts usually mean multiple fees.

Bringing your accounts to Edward Jones could help solve all that. Plus, one statement can make it easier to see if you’re moving toward your goals. *Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss.

To learn why consolidating your retirement accounts to Edward Jones makes sense, call your local financial advisor today. !aarrrryy BBrroowwnn

The autumn foliage colors this year have surely been magnificent. As I write, on Sunday afternoon, I can still see wonderful colors out the windows at both the front and back of the house — lots of reds, oranges and yellows — against muted backgrounds. In fact, I do not personally remember a year when the autumn was so strikingly beautiful. What caused this spectacular display? Was it the cool summer with a lot of sunshine? I don’t know. But it seems surprising that there are still so many leaves on the trees and bushes. With all the wind we have had, one would think that the trees would have been blown to bits and that every last leaf would have been blown away. Yet here we are at the end of October and there is still wonderful color in the trees and bushes. But the garden is coming to an end. I now have the very last of the tomatoes picked and in the house. And I pulled all the carrots. As to flowers — there were still enough lavender cosmos and white mums to make a nice bouquet for inside the house. I also wanted to pick an eggplant for parmesan and thought there would be at least one nice one by this time. Not so. The only one on the plant was about 1 1/2 inches long — a tiny miniature thing that wouldn’t have provided more than two bites at the most. Oh, well. There’s always next year. And actually it gave me a good laugh when I saw it. ——— It’s time to vote; the general election is coming up on Tuesday, Nov. 3. Locally there are many important issues on the ballet. And in the state there is Issue 3 — a question of whether to allow casinos in Ohio. The proponents of this issue must have a lot of money to throw at this campaign because there are signs supporting it nearly everywhere. What that means is that the promoters are willing to spend a lot of money because, if the issue passes, they will make a lot of money! The vote on this will be “yes” if you favor casinos and “no” if you don’t. ——— Last week I wrote from Mohican State Park Lodge. After writing that column and faxing it back to Port Clinton to be typed, I explored a bit and discovered that the resort had a full-service dining room, cocktail lounge, gift shop, indoor pool (outdoor pool was covered), shuffleboard, volleyball, tennis, horseshoes, billiards, ping pong and basketball. In short, there was something for just about everybody. The room had satellite television with HBO, a DVD player (DVD rentals were available, at the front desk), and other wonderful amenities. And rooms had private balconies with a view. The dining room windows overlooked woods and the lake — a great scenic vista at this time of year. Fishing, hiking, a playground for the kids and much more rounded out the amenities. And Mohican is not far from “Amish Country.” Xanterra Parks and Resorts operate the state park lodges for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. You might like to take the time to visit some of them to see what they are all about. Maumee Bay (up near Toledo) is the closest to home. Others are Burr Oak, Hueston Woods, Punderson Manor (I’ve never been there), Salt Fork and Shawnee. One other thing: Ohio State Park Resorts are fully equipped for meetings and conferences to handle up to 200 people. High-speed Internet service is available — as is audio-visual support for professional gatherings. If you want to learn more about the state parks, contact Kerri Kaderly at 614-655-4223 or KKaderly@xanterra.com. She could help you plan an event. I have dealt with her for business event planning. She is extremely helpful. ——— Here is something I’ve been reading about and I want to learn more about it: micro credit. In several third-world countries, small loans are made to businessmen and businesswomen to help them escape the bonds of poverty. With a little money to get them started, these people can begin providing a service or producing a product that is marketable. Especially for women, these small loans can be empowering and

Probably one of the most important sources for people starting a tourism business is identifying where people currently go for entertainment. Right now, culinary tourism — food festivals, farm tours, cooking classes — is an emerging national market. Other tourist targets becoming popular are sports tourism, eco-tourism and heritage (history) tourism. Melinda Huntley can aid you in finding information you may need.

life-enriching. I’d like more information about this. If you have a reliable reference source, please e-mail the data to ginny@nwonline.net. ——— The last issue of “Twineline,” the newsletter of the Ohio Sea Grant program, features an article about harmful algae blooms in the western basin of Lake Erie. The Maumee River Watershed produces a lot of turbid or muddy water after wind and rainstorms. This presents an incubator situation for harmful Micrcystis “blooms” once the muddy water reaches the lake. While the Maumee River is one of the largest rivers emptying into the Lake, other rivers (including our own Portage River) also produce sediment that contributes to “bad” algae growth once it gets to the lake. The problem of river sedimentation has gotten worse as large impenetrable land areas (such as roads and large parking lots) “do not allow water to infiltrate the ground. Instead, the water is forced into storm drains and streams taking soil particles along with it. The key (to correcting this) is to create barriers that slow down the water’s flow allowing it to be absorbed”… statement by researcher Justin Chaffin. Information gathered from the Portage River Basin Council meetings promotes the belief that one long-range solution to the problem is to plant buffer strips of vegetation along streams and rivers. These strips “catch” the sediment before it runs into the water. Buffer strips around plowed fields are also helpful. Drainage ditches that curve and turn help to slow down the water-flow and give rainwater a chance to be absorbed before it reaches the lake. Wetlands also slow the flow of water and, even better, are natural filters of contaminants. According to the article in “Twineline,” people who are interested in doing their own small bit to help in limiting runoff can catch rain from their home gutters in a rain barrel and use it as needed for watering flower and vegetable gardens. Rain gardens (a recently popular concept) involve planting vegetation along the edges of houses, driveways, sidewalks and other impenetrable areas such as patios. Good plants for this are native wildflowers because their root systems are well suited to absorbing the runoff. ——— Congratulations to Fred Snyder who just recently retired from the local Ohio Sea Grant program. I’ll miss Fred. He has been very helpful to me in understanding the concepts of life along the Portage River and on the shores of Lake Erie. The waters of our area fascinate me. Having grown up on the shores of Sandusky Bay, having lived within five blocks of the lake as a young married woman, and then having spent all of the rest of my years only about ½ mile from the Portage River, it is a natural concern for me. I’m especially interested in the impact that our waters have on the economic, environmental and agricultural aspects of our region. Snyder helped me to understand these implications and I’ll always be grateful to him for that because it enriched my life. Enjoy your retirement, Fred, because you have certainly earned it. ——— An interesting project that may benefit our area: The tourism industry is big business ($38 billion each year in Ohio) and the great Lake Erie Vacationland is part of that. Hotels, restaurants, recreational businesses, retail stores and transportation are a few of the businesses that see revenues from tourism. Now an agency, The Ohio Tourism Toolbox, has been created to gather data.

Dave Yost, Delaware County prosecutor and candidate for Ohio Attorney General in the Spring 2010 Primary, will be the featured speaker at the 70th Anniversary Dinner of the Ottawa County Republican Woman’s Club Oct. 29 at the Catawba Island Club.

Health Edgewood Manor residents compete in Rehab Olympics With the sun shining and a warm breeze blowing across the courtyard, it was the perfect afternoon for Edgewood Manor’s second annual Rehab Olympics. In celebration of National Rehabilitation Week, the therapy department at Edgewood uses this week to show people that not only does exercise add years to your life but life to your years. Two teams of residents and therapists competed through an obstacle course. Starting with dressing in additional clothing including hats, scarves and shoes, the participants moved through eight stations before taking the added clothing back off and heading to the finish line. The crowd including residents, staff and family members clapped, screamed and cheered for the teams as they traveled the course. A basketball hoop, bean bag toss, darts, cone stacking and a soccer kick are just a few examples of the various

stations the competitors moved through. The teams were neck and neck at the finish line. Excitement spread across the winners faces as they were awarded not only medals, but a bag full of prizes. “We should do this more often,� said resident Millie Krempa. “That was so much fun!�

OAK HARBOR 24 — CLYDE 19

Oak Harbor upsets Clyde BY J. PATRICK EAKEN Oak Harbor running back Jake Scott ran for 179 yards and one touchdown on 27 carries as the Rockets upset Sandusky Bay Conference leader Clyde, 24-19. “It was a good night for us,” Oak Harbor coach Mike May said. “I’m real happy for our seniors, being it was the last home game and we were able to get a big win, so it was a big night for them.” Scott’s running accounted for more than three-quarters of Oak Harbor’s 232 total net rushing yardage. “Our running game has started to improve, and really our offensive line has really done a great job opening up some real nice holes for Jake. Jake did a good job of hitting the holes and it was a pretty good night for us running the football,” May said. Scott had a touchdown run of three yards, and he also had a 65-yard run to help the Oak Harbor cause. Scott also had the game’s only interception on defense. The visiting Fliers were coming off an upset of state-ranked Perkins, and maybe they were flying a little too high. Clyde, although 5-4 overall, is now 5-1 in the Sandusky Bay Conference and remains tied with Perkins (8-1, 5-1) for the SBC lead. Oak Harbor improves to 3-6 overall, 2-4 in the SBC. The updated score from Oak Harbor’s stadium was being announced throughout Perkins’ game hosting Port Clinton, and when it was announced the Rockets had won Perkins fans began cheering in

BY J. PATRICK EAKEN Perkins made the best of Senior Night at home Friday night, defeating the Port Clinton Redskins, 41-0. The Pirates had a perfect night — when they kicked off to start the game the wind was behind their back coming from the south. By the end of the second quarter, the wind had reversed — still at the Pirates’ back. To top it off, Oak Harbor defeated visiting Clyde 24-19 to force a first place tie in the Sandusky Bay Conference. Clyde had upset visiting stateranked Perkins the week before, but now both teams were 5-1 in the SBC with one week to go. PC started okay, but everything fell apart midway through the first quarter. Running back Richard Harris left the ballgame after three rushing attempts, sophomore receiver Steve Wingo was not seeing much playing time on offense, and quarterback Derek Colston had to rely almost entirely on the rest of his receiving corps. A passing strategy worked as Port Clinton earned the first two first downs of the game. It would be the only first downs PC would get the first half as Perkins rolled up 19 first downs. In the second half, it was more of the same as Perkins had seven first

the game. Backus added the conversion kick, and the Rockets led 24-13 with 7:28 remaining in the game. In a scramble to save victory from the jaws of defeat, Clyde got on the board one more time as Ryan Meyer threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Kade Kramer. A two-point conversion attempt failed, and the Rockets began celebrating. They were also celebrating at Perkins High School. “We had a pretty happy group after the game,” May said. “You know, we’ve been through our share of adversity and I’ve seen us getting better and better in practice. We were about due for a big win like that, so it was just a good win for our program.” Young completed 3-of-7 passes for 53 yards, including the touchdown pass to Warnke, a 25-yard pass to D.J. Everett, and a 6-yard pass to Zack Priesman. The Rockets held Clyde quarterbacks Ryan Meyer and Gabe Gilbert in check, limiting the Fliers to 105 total yards through the air and 178 on the ground. Meyer completed 7-of-15 passes for 76 yards and Gilbert completed 3-of-6 for 29 yards. Three passes went to Tyson Rex for 31 yards, three to Kramer for 29 yards, two to Kyle Smeltzler for 25 yards, one to Colson for 17 yards, and one to Brandon Flores for 3 yards. Kalob Andrews also had a 44yard kickoff return for Clyde. Oak Harbor concludes its season this Saturday by traveling to play Sandusky St. Mary Central Catholic (1-8 overall), 0-6 SBC.

celebration. “I’m sure Perkins is pretty happy about that,” May said. Clyde place kicker Jordan Colson got the ball rolling in a first half seesaw battle as he booted a 22-yard field goal with 7:31 remaining in the first quarter. But Oak Harbor came back on a 22-yard touchdown pass from junior quarterback Steve Young to Josh Warnke. Myles Backus booted the conversion, and the Rockets led 7-3 with 4:01 remaining in the opening quarter. Clyde came back early in the second quarter on a 1-yard run by Gabe Gilbert, and Colson added the conversion kick to put the Fliers up 10-7 with 11:54 remaining until halftime. Scott scored his only touchdown with 5:22 remaining, and Backus’ kick put the Rockets up 14-10 with 5:22 remaining until halftime. That lead stood at intermission. Clyde got on the board first in the second half, scoring another field goal by Colson — this one from 32 yards out. But the Fliers still trailed 1413 with 4:26 remaining in the third quarter and would never regain the lead again. Backus connected on a 36-yard field goal for the Rockets, and Oak Harbor improved its lead to four points, 1713, with 9:51 remaining in the game. Oak Harbor got the ball back on its own 24-yard line just under 2 minutes later when speedster Jordan Cannet raced 76 yards for pay dirt. It would be Cannet’s only rushing attempt of

downs to PC’s two. On the first play from scrimmage, Colston completed a 29-yard pass to senior Allen Tigner, putting the Redskins on the Perkins 38. Colston then completed a 4-yard pass to junior Josh Graves, but Colston’s next three pass attempts fell incomplete. Colston to the rescue — only it was on defense this time. On Perkins’ first play from its own 34, Colston intercepted a deflected pass thrown by Perkins quarterback Spencer Bryant. It would be Perkins’ only turnover of the game, while two PC quarterbacks threw two interceptions. Sophomore Cody Gray fires a Harris went to work, running for 6 pass toward an open receiver in yards, and then Colston completed a Friday’s game against Perkins. 9-yard pass to Tigner.

BY J. PATRICK EAKEN Danbury’s last attempt to win its first Toledo Area Athletic Conference game fell short in a 49-16 loss to visiting Ottawa Hills. The Lakers fell to 1-8 overall, 0-6 in the TAAC with one non-league game remaining on its schedule. Ottawa Hills improved to 4-5, 3-2 in the TAAC. The Golden Bears relied on the running game of Taylor Savage, who gained 126 yards and ran for three touchdowns on 18 carries. OH quarterback Jimmy Zimmerman completed 9-of-14 passes for another 131 yards, including two touchdown passes. Once again, it was George Beidenbach providing the offensive sparkplug for Danbury. He scored on runs of 60 and 3 yards. Beidenbach came into the game with 639 yards rushing on 138 carries, and he now has scored nine touchdowns. He also had three receptions for 81 yards coming into the Ottawa Hills game. Danbury closes its season this Friday by traveling to Swanton, also 1-8. Swanton’s only win came over Northwest Ohio Athletic League rival Montpelier.

Avoid these scary investment moves It’s Halloween time again, so you’ll probably be seeing a lot of ghosts, goblins, witches and werewolves. While you may find these sightings more amusing than fear-inducing, you don’t have to look far to find things that really are frightening — such as scary investment moves. Fortunately, by recognizing these sinister steps, you can help avoid them. Here are a few to consider: s Scary Move No. 1: Trying to “time” the market — If you always knew when to “buy low and sell high,” you’d be a tremendously successful investor. Unfortunately, no one can accurately predict highs and lows — and if you try to jump in and out of investments in response to speculation about where the market is heading, you could end up missing good opportunities. You’re typically better off by staying invested and investing based on your individual risk tolerance, time horizon and need for diversification. (Keep in mind, though, that diversification, by itself, cannot guarantee a profit or protect against a loss.) s Scary Move No. 2: Chasing after “hot” tips — You can get “hot” investment tips from anybody — your neighbor, your brother-in-law or even that guy you always see at the bus stop. But while these tips may be well intentioned, they may be flawed, f or a couple of reasons. First, if an investment really was “hot,” by the time you hear about it and get around to purchasing it, it may already be cooling off. But more importantly, it might not be suitable for your individual needs. Look for investments that you understand and that can help you meet your goals. s Scary Move No. 3: Investing too aggressively — or too conservatively. If you invest too aggressively, you could be taking unnecessary chances. On the other hand, if you invest too conservatively, you may never achieve your longterm objectives. Try to find a mix of investments that fits your individual risk tolerance. s Scary Move No. 4: Leaving your portfolio “unbalanced” — Over time, your individual situation will change, as will the fundamentals of some of the investments you own. That’s why it’s important that you regularly rebalance your portfolio, possibly with the help of an experienced financial professional. s Scary Move No. 5: Failing to take advantage of investment opportunities — To help meet your goals, such as a comfortable retirement, it’s important to take advantage of suitable investment opportunities. Contribute as much as you can afford to your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan, as well as your IRA and other retirement accounts you may have. As an investor, your greatest ally is time, so the more years you invest — especially when you’re investing in tax-advantaged accounts such as a 401(k) and an IRA — the greater your prospects for achieving your financial objectives. You can’t elude all the pitfalls that life may hold in store. But by avoiding these terrifying investment moves, you can help improve your prospects for long-term success — and that’s not a scary thought at all.
