Third-graders down on the farm

Third-graders from both Jefferson and St. Johns Elementary Schools participated
Wednesday in an annual FFA-sponsored series of programs. Designed to highlight
how the food we so often take for granted makes its way from farm to freezer, students participated in a tour of local hot spots, including Hempflings Dairy Farm,
Moxs Nursery and Chiefs Supermarket. Also included was a stop at Stadium Park
to review both firearm and farm safety tips. While at Hempflings, above, they were
presented with opportunities to interact with dairy cows, big and small. (DHI Media/

Less lethal. Its a catch phrase in law enforcement circles and in the media. Less lethal: referring to both an effort short of deadly force and the
tools used to help restrain suspects. Think rubber
bullets and bean bag guns. Think mace and
pepper spray. Think batons and asps. And give a
thought to conductive electrical devices (CEDs),
most commonly referred to as TASERs.
The brainchild of NASA researcher Jack
Cover, the first TASER, an acronym that stands for
Thomas A. Swifts Electric Rifle Swift being
a fictional literary character who was Covers
childhood hero was, true to its name, first presented in rifle form. Subsequent design improvements resulted, in 1999, with a rudimentary handheld device and, in 2003, with the TASER X26,
the most commonly deployed TASER model
among local law enforcement officials and one
that looks remarkably similar to a handgun.
See TASER, page 15
The TASER X26, the police-issued version of the militarys M26, is the most
commonly deployed conductive electric
weapon among American law enforcement agencies. (DHI Media/Steven
Coburn-Griffis)
If we wait until were ready
we will be waiting for the rest of our lives. The motto of the 2015 graduating class of Fort Jennings High
School was put to the test and the point driven home by the young men and women who celebrated their rite
of passage Friday evening. (DHI Media/Steven Coburn-Griffis)

Graduation season is here,

and for many parents and
graduates, this may also mean
graduation parties. Agents
with the Ohio Investigative
Unit know many parents will
refrain from allowing underage party guests from consuming alcohol. However,
there are some parents and
graduates that will participate
in the illegal and dangerous
behavior, such as providing
alcohol to minors and consuming underage.
The excitement that
comes along with graduation can easily turn into a
time of tragedy because of
the increased occurrences
of underage drinking at parties, said OIU Enforcement
Commander Eric Wolf. We
urge parents not to provide a
place or allow alcohol consumption to take place on
your property.
To help foster good choices, parents and teens need to
understand Ohios underage
drinking laws.
It is illegal to provide a
place for your child and his/
her friends to drink in a safe
environment. In fact, parents
may not provide alcohol to
children who are under 21,
who are not their own, even
in their own home with the
other parents permission.
Those convicted of providing
alcohol to a person under 21
years of age face maximum
sentences of six months in jail
and/or a $1,000 fine.
It is illegal to purchase
alcohol for anyone under 21.
Anyone who purchases, sells
or gives alcoholic beverages
to underage individuals faces
a $1,000 fine and/or up to six
months in jail.

Ottoville Schools get boost from

recent farm property valuations
BY NANCY SPENCER
DHI Media Editor
OTTOVILLE The revaluation of farmland in Putnam

County caused significant
movement on the revenue side in Ottoville Local
Schools 5-Year Forecast.
Treasurer Bob Weber
reported during the school
board meeting Wednesday
that taxes received by the
district associated with the
new appraisals are estimated to bring approximately an
additional $100,000 a year to
the districts coffers.
There has been some
discussion between farmers
and the auditors office on
the revaluation, Weber said.
They are saying the assessment of their land was higher
than expected.
According to Weber, any
adjustments will wait until
the 2017 Putnam County
appraisal and wont affect the
district, if imposed, until the
2018 tax receipts.
The forecast shows the
district with a General Fund
balance of $4,716,470 in
2016; $4,812,711 in 2017;
Ottoville added three teachers to its ranks on Wednesday. Gina Bonifas, left, will teach

noted that although the district well into the black on

Baby colt delights Eicher children
BY LOVINA EICHER
May is here already. It seems as
though 2015 just began and now we are
already in the month of May.
The first of May brought some excitement here. Our horse Itty Bit gave birth
to a little filly. She is all black, so we
named her Black Beauty. Such a lively
young foal! Itty Bit is a very protective
mother to the foal and it took some time
for her to let us get too close to the foal.
The construction crew started building our pole barn this morning. The
poles are all set. Daughter Verena didnt
have to work today so she made chocolate chip bars and lemonade to serve to
the men for their break.
My rhubarb is ready to use and I
need to make rhubarb custard pie. My
husband Joe always likes that.
Joe found out yesterday that they
will soon be working nine hour days on
Saturdays for a while. This makes him
glad he hired help to put up the pole barn
and didnt attempt to put it up himself.
Last week I bought the royal blue
material that I need to make a dress for
nephew Levis wedding next week. I
want to cut it out today and start sewing
on it. I was so glad Verena could have
the day off to help with the other work.
Our sympathy goes to Elizabeths
special friend Timothy and his extended

Maine is best-known for and
loved for lobster and the wonder-
family. His grandpa died yesterday. The

funeral is planned for Friday in northern
Indiana.
We have radishes, peas, and corn
up in the garden. We also have sweet
onions planted. We had a few rainy days
so once the garden dries off again we
would like to plant some more of the
garden. Our horseradish plant is looking nice. We want to make horseradish
sauce. We grind up the root real fine and
season it.
Son Kevin, 9, and Lovina are enjoying their ducks and amazed at how fast
they are growing. I havent been out to
the barn lately to see how big they are.
Kevin is getting annoyed with our new
rooster. He said this rooster is starting to
get mean like the old one.
Thursday evening we will go to the

will present their career prep portfolio

Concerns arise over avian flu in poultry and turkeys

have been reported since December,
a majority of which have been turkeys and most recently layers. The
HPAI H5N2 virus strain has been
confirmed in several states along
three of North American Flyways:
Pacific, Central and Mississippi.
The viruses are extremely infectious and fatal to birds. The latest
findings can be found at http://
www.usda.gov/wps/portal/usda/

Humans are not affected and
poultry and turkey products (meat
and eggs) are safe to eat. This is
strictly an avian disease and human
The following information is

provided by Ohio State University
and Dr. El-Gazzar, an OSU Poultry
Veterinarian. We have another disease to worry about called avian
flu in poultry. Commercial flocks,
backyard chickens, and 4-H poultry
projects need to be aware of this
avian disease.
Three strains of the flu have been
detected in wild birds on the West
coast and in the migratory bird path
that follows the Mississippi River.
Since December 2014, USDA has
confirmed several cases of highly
pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI)
H5. So far, 122 influenza findings
illness has never been reported to

this outbreak in North America,
Europe, or Asia. Producers and
poultry owners should take all necessary measures to protect their
birds. The states poultry industry,
which includes egg, turkey, and
chicken production, is valued at
$786 million and Ohio ranks second in the nation in egg production
and ninth in turkey production.
Poultry producers should avoid
direct contact between any domestic or captive type of bird and
all migratory birds. Most commercial producers are generally very
good at protecting their birds but
Paws to Consider
The lesson of Barack Orama

BY JOHN JONES, DVM
Until Barack Orama was

born, I had never raised
anything other than white
Southdown lambs. He
changed that, if you havent
already guessed. As for his
name, I hope it doesnt offend
anyone because I know at
least a few readers are fans
of his namesake. I also know
that a good deal more are not.
But with a brother named
Joe, and being a ram, what
else was I going to call him?
I was present for Baracks
birth. As the seemingly lifeless lamb emerged from his
mother, all slimy and black,
my first reaction was, Uhoh, this cant be good. I
had seen dark lambs like this
before, and it usually meant
they had been dead for quite
awhile. A brief pause and
vigorous shake later, how-
John Jones, DVM
ever, little Barack was very

much alive.
My next concern was
the ewe. Although this was
her fourth lambing, she
didnt exactly earn mother
of the year honors on her
first go-round, and probably

would have been on my infamous list, had my wifes
husband not paid way too
much money for her own
mother. The last two years
shes done a great job with
her lambs; my anxiety this
time stemmed from wondering how she would bond to
the uniquely shaded baby.
Happily, she never missed a
lick, for Barack, or his older
brother, Joe, and seemed to
love both equally.
Two days later, the family
was moved to a larger pen
containing three other ewes
and their lambs, and I witnessed a behavior I hadnt
seen before. Instantly and in
unison, the heads and ears of
all three ewes went up, and
their front legs went rigid
see PAWS, page 15
backyard chickens tend to be more

exposed and there is an increased
risk of disease, so be on the lookout
for disease signs. Backyard poultry owners should consider keeping
their birds in enclosed covered runs
for the next several months until
the threat of disease passes. All 122
cases of this disease were detected
in the West, none in the Midwest
yet, but authorities are not sure that
Ohio is still safe from the disease.
Symptoms can include ruffled
feathers, lower feed consumption,
and a drop in egg production, or
there may be no symptoms at all.
By contrast, the highly pathogenic
H5N1 virus causes severe illness

and often kills the bird within 48
hours and the first sign may be dead
birds. More than 90 percent of birds
in a flock may die from infection
with highly pathogenic avian flu
viruses. If poultry producers see
increased signs of poultry mortality, contact the Ohio Department
of Agriculture immediately. They
will speak with you and determine
if what you are seeing matches the
pattern of this pathogenic disease.

is 800-300-9755 or 614-728-6220.

Defiance avenges season

loss in ousting Elida in D-II
Elida third baseman Skylar Hurst throws

over to first during Division II sectional
softball action versus Defiance Friday at
Dorothy Edwards Field. Defiance advanced
with an 8-2 triumph. (DHI Media/Jim
Metcalfe)
BY JIM METCALFE
ELIDA There is an old axiom in sports

that its hard to beat the same team twice in
the same year.
That was the exact task that Elida had
before it when the Lady Bulldogs hosted
Western Buckeye League foe Defiance in a
Division II sectional final on a warm Friday
evening at Dorothy Edwards Field.
Elida had won the regular-season matchup 2-1 in eight innings April 14 at the same
locale.
However, Elida head coach Mike
Eilermans fears were realized as the visitors
scored four in the second and a huge four
more in the fifth to grab an 8-2 triumph.
This Defiance team scared me; Ive been
watching their scores and they have gotten
much better as the season wore on. They beat
an unbeaten Fairview team ranked in the
top 10 in Division III, Eilerman explained.
Their pitcher (Brooklyn Miller) is pretty
good she was good then and even better
now. We hit some balls hard but they played
outstanding defense several times.

Defiance head man Hans Zipfle was
pleased with his team.
I never really know good or bad
what kind of effort I will get night to night but
generally, Ive been happy with it, he added.
Brooklyn is a workhorse for us and she is
spent. Some of the plays we made tonight on
defense were ones we dont always make
including the routine but well take them.
We knew Elida wouldnt go away, so it was
key for us to add runs.
Defiance (17-9) wasted a leadoff triple by
Haley Burnett in the top of the first against
Elida ace Michaela Black.
Not so in the second. They took advantage
of three hits, two wild pitches, an error, a hit
batter and a wild pitch to go up 4-0. Emily
Turner had a run batted in (Caroline Turner,
who had a leadoff single) and the other three
runs scored on a bases-loaded wild pitch
(Turner), another wild pitch (Zariah Scott)
and a passed ball (Trista Guyton), all with
Laura Schrag at the bat and all with no outs.
Once Black retired the side, she seemed to
settle down and set down nine in a row.
Number 9 hitter Taylor Thompson was the
first Elida batter to get on with a 2-out bunt
single in the third as Miller fanned the first six
in the Lady Dawg order. However, she was
stranded as centerfielder Haley Burnett went
deep into left center to rob Jenna Halpern of
a hit.
Katelynn Sumption doubled to left center
with two outs in the Elida fourth.
The Defiance fruitless string ended in the
top of the fifth as they doubled their lead
to 8-0, with only one hit a solo blast by
number 9 hitter, Schrag, to lead it off. Three
bases-on-balls one to Scott with the bases
juiced (Abby Zedeker) and two errors (one
scoring Morgan Porter) accounted for another
tally, as well as a wild pitch (Miller) for their
final run.
Elida finally got on the board in the home
sixth. With one gone, Halpern beat out an
infield hit and Black then rocketed a 2-run
blast over the left-field fence to make it 8-2,
Defiance.
Skylar Hurst was the last base-runner of
Elidas season on an infield hit with two outs
in the home seventh and moved up on a wild
pitch but Kelsey Goodman popped out to the
pitcher to end the Elida season at 15-5.

ROCKFORD The suspense was over quickly and

the game almost as quickly
in 52 minutes to be exact
as Parkway run-ruled
Columbus Grove 10-0 in
Fridays Division III softball
sectional final in Rockford.
The Lady Panthers (19-3)
will play Tinora in a district semifinal at Bath on
Wednesday at 5 p.m. The
Lady Bulldogs had their fine
season end at 21-7.
The story of this game, as
it usually is with Parkway,
was the Panther bats with
13 hits.
Kayla Walls led off the
bottom of the first with a line
single to center and one out
later, left-handed hitting Alyx
Slusher blasted a homer over
the fence in left center.
The Panthers added six
more runs on six hits in the
second, including a triple by
Kayla Walls and five singles
Bailey Bates, Slusher,
Haley Hawk, Terra Walls and

Alisa Gray. Parkway made it
10-0 with two more runs in
the third. Those came on four
singles Zoey Pond, Kayla
Walls, Slusher and Hawk.
The Lady Dogs had at
least one baserunner in every
inning, getting runners as far
as third in the second and
fourth, but the Panther pitching and defense was always
up to the challenge.
Kayla (Walls) set the
tone from the first pitch of
the game, got a base hit,
said Parkway coach Mark
Esselstein. Then Alyx hit the
shot to get us off to a good
start. Then our bats really
came out. Thats who we are.
Were a good hitting team.
Grove is a really good team,
they won 21 games, but we
were able to knock them back
on their heels a little bit.
Panther pitcher Kayle
Heckler went the distance (3
hits, 4 strikeouts, 1 walk).
Of her 58 pitches, 38 were
strikes. Columbus Grove
hurler Hope Schroeder gave
up 10 earned runs, fanned

none, walked one and hit a
batter. Of her 64 pitches, 42
were strikes.

Delphos seniors finish baseball

careers together in 2015 finale
Lady Lancers rally

late to trip up Bearcats in tourney action
By JIM METCALFE
Seniors from both Delphos schools met on the diamond one final time Thursday night at Stadium Park as Jefferson
defeated St. Johns 6-1; (l to r) Ryan Bullinger, Jorden Boone, Nick Fitch, Alex Haunhorst, Kurt Wollenhaupt, Austin
Heiing and Gaige Rassman. (DHI Media/Larry Heiing)
By LARRY HEIING
DELPHOS They started together
and they finished together.
It was a fitting conclusion for seven
Delphos high school seniors as they
concluded their baseball careers on the
Stadium Park field together Thursday
night.
Most of all of these players learned
how to play the game of baseball togeth-
er from T-ball to Little League to Pony

League before separating at the high
school level.
Jeffersons Ryan Bullinger, Nick
Fitch, Kurt Wollenhaupt and Gaige
Rassman reunited with St. Johns
Austin Heiing, Jorden Boone and Alex
Haunhorst for one final game on the
familiar clay diamond at the park where
they took their first swings, with the
Wildcats grabbing a 6-1 victory.
The reunion began as a pitchers duel
as Jeffersons Gage Mercer and Jacob
Youngpeter of St. Johns put up goose

eggs in the first two innings.
After the disappointment of being
eliminated from sectional play, it was
nice to get the opportunity to wrap up the
season against our cross-town rivals,
Jefferson head coach Doug Geary said.
Our performance tonight was a good
way to send our four seniors out with a
win but it all started with pitching and
Mercer was outstanding tonight for us.

VAN WERT It was

all smiles Thursday as the
Van Wert Cougars hosted Paulding in the Division
III sectional championship
game. The Cougars came
away victorious and earned
their first sectional championship in 16 years.
Southpaw Brant Henry
got the start on the mound
for the Cougars and got to
work quickly, striking out
the leadoff batter. The next
three batters reached base
for Paulding but a force out
and another strikeout helped
Henry escape trouble.
The Cougars went in order
in their half of the first on just
eight pitches.
Jarrett Sitton singled to
begin the Panther at bat but
he was thrown out on a Lupe
Martinez force out. Alex
Arellano singled. Corbin
Edwards singled, scoring
Martinez.
Van Wert woke up offensively in the bottom of the
second as each of the first
four batters reached base.
The fourth was a 2-RBI
single down the left-field
line off the bat of Ethan
Williams. Ryan McCracken
and Mason Carr reached
base via walk, scoring a
third Cougar run. The inning
ended as Williams scored
when the Panthers allowed
a pop-up to drop, after the
infield fly rule was invoked.
Carr was tagged out trying
to advance but Williams
crossed the plate before the
out was recorded.
Elida
The Cougars stayed

hot into the third as Gavin
Gardner singled on a weak
grounder to the left side of the
infield. Josh Braun walked
and both runners advanced
on a passed ball. Williams
then doubled off the left field
fence, plating two more runs
and stretching the Cougar
lead to 6-1.
The Cougars were on the
prowl again in the bottom of
the fourth as all nine batters
batted in the inning. With
one out, Justice Tussing was
hit by a pitch before Ryan
Stoller singled and Henry
doubled, plating another
Cougar run. Gardner then hit
a high fly ball to center that
was caught but Stoller came
into score, giving Van Wert
an 8-1 lead with two out in
the inning.
They werent done yet,
though, as Caleb Fetzer singled to left, scoring Henry.
Braun hit a liner to right field
that was misplayed, putting
runners on second and third
with still two men out. Fetzer
scored and Braun advanced
to third on a wild pitch
from Panther reliever Lupe
Martinez. Williams then
came to the dish and singled
in another run. The Cougars
finished the inning with an
11-1 lead.

SPENCERVILLE The
Lincolnview at Spencerville
Division IV sectional softball
matchup Thursday afternoon
had good pitching, good hitting, some twists and turns
and a controversial play in
the fourth.
In the end, the Lady
Lancers erupted for three runs
in the top of the seventh and
ace righty Macala Ashbaugh
held off the Bearcats in the
home half as the visitors
grabbed a 5-3 tourney win.
Lincolnview (11-14) will
move on in tourney play as
they await Thursday nights
Ottoville/New Bremen victor
and will play 5 p.m. Thursday
at Wapakoneta.
The Lancers trailed 3-2
entering the fateful frame
against Lady Bearcat ace
righty Alex Shumate. Number
8 hitter, Zoe Miller, hit one
hard that handcuffed third
baseman Alix Hambrick and
into left field and pinch-runner
Allison
Berryman
advanced on a passed ball.
Sidney Jenkins laid down
an almost perfect bunt along
the third-base line and beat
it out, with Berryman staying
put. Julia Thatcher doubled
down the left-field line to
score both. She scored an out
later as Alena Looser lined
a hit to left center. Looser
advanced on a comebacker by Ashbaugh and Baylee
Neate was plunked. However,
Devann Springer bounced out
to Hambrick for the third out.
We finally adjusted to
Shumate shes a very good
pitcher. We got some help
early but then didnt get much
in the innings after that,
Lincolnview head coach Brad
Doidge explained. We finally caught up to her; we moved
back in the box and started to
drive it better. The bottom of
our order did a great job of
setting the table for Julia; you

like to see a senior step up in
a situation like that.
For Spencerville head
coach Jeff Johnston, it was all
about missed opportunities.
We had our chances even
after we came out kind of flat.
We made a couple of errors
early that put us behind but
we fought back to take the
lead, he added. The play in
the fourth that went against us
was just such a missed opportunity that didnt go our way.
We just didnt come up with
enough timely hits when we
could have added more runs.
Ashbaugh retired leadoff
hitter Maddy Hollar to open
the Bearcat home half. Bailey
Swartz singled into short left
center and Kara May shot a
2-out seeing-eye single into
left. However, Megan Miller
fouled out to first sacker Z.
Miller to end the game and
the Lady Bearcat tourney run.
Thatcher was safe on an
error to lead off the game and
a 1-out passed ball moved
her to third. An out later,
Ashbaughs knock to right got
her home. Neate was safe on
an error, with courtesy-runner
Berryman moving to third,
from where she touched the
dish via a single to right by
Springer and a 2-0 edge.
The
Black
Attack
answered in the home first
with a 2-out solo shot by
Mackenzie Ringwald that hit
off the top of the fence just
right of the scoreboard in center field and bounced over for
a 2-1 deficit.
Z. Miller led off the
Lancer second with a single to center and Jenkins followed with a bunt single; on
the play, first baseman Jenna
Henline caught Miller too far
off second. With Thatcher up,
Jenkins took off on a pitch in
the dirt but was caught on the
throw by Megan Miller.

Henry tosses 2-hitter to shut out Delphos

Big Green in sectional baseball
Ottoville shortstop Kyle Bendele comes up throwing from the hole during the Big Greens sectional
tourney game Wednesday at Leipsic. Third baseman Trent Miller looks on. (DHI Media/Jim Metcalfe)
By JIM METCALFE
LEIPSIC It was a
picture-perfect spring day
Wednesday afternoon at
Charles H. Bennet Park in
Leipsic.
The pitching of Viking
right-hander Pierce Henry
was almost as picture-perfect
as he twirled a 2-hit shutout
versus Ottoville in a Division
IV sectional final
His Purple and Gold teammates got two early runs and
went on to a 6-0 victory to
oust the Big Green and end
their 2015 spring at 10-9.
Leipsic advances to
take on Miller City 2 p.m.
Wednesday in the Elida

District semifinals.
We were struggling at the
plate before the game; we
came in hitting .210 for the
season, so its been a struggle. We didnt hit too many
hard ones today, Ottoville
head coach Ty Wannemacher
said. We didnt help ourselves by committing a couple of early errors and getting
behind; weve usually been
OK on defense. I could tell
right away our heads werent
in it. Still, we didnt give in;
we didnt all year when we
would win four or five in a
row and then lose the same,
then win, then lose.
Ottovilles
Brandon
Boecker was hit by a pitch
in the top of the first but was

caught stealing.
Leipsic (14-11) got the
benefit of two unearned tallies in the bottom half against
Ottoville freshman Nick
Moorman. Nick Schey commenced it with an infield
single, Ross Schroeder was
safe on an error and Alex
Ellerbrock was plunked.
John Berger forced Schey at
home. However, an error on
a fly ball hit by Henry scored
Schroeder and Ellerbrock.
Joe Van Oss walked to
lead off the Ottoville second but was eliminated by a
Brendon Schnipke grounder.
The latter was left on base as
Henry retired the next two.
Leipsic made it 4-0 in the
home second. Rob Laubenthal
kicked it off with a single,
Schey singled to right with
two down and Schroeder
walked to load them up.
Ellerbrock forced Laubenthal
at home but Berger delivered
a 2-run rap to left.
Leipsic
chased
Moorman in the third as
Justin Ellerbrock led off
with a base-on-balls and
Wannemacher summoned
Joel Beining. Ellerbrock stole
second, advanced on a Grant
Rader bounceout to second
and scored on Laubenthals
blooper to right.
Schnipke was safe on an
error leading off the visitor
fifth and Trent Miller had
the first Ottoville hit with
a line shot up the middle.
However, Leipsic third baseman Devin Hiegel fielded a
Beining grounder, stepped on
the base and gunned Beining
out at first for a twin-killing.
Leipsic got its final tally

in the bottom fifth. With one
out, Hiegel walked but was
forced on a Schey grounder.
A wild pitch moved Schey up
and Schroeder lined a knock
into center to put runners
on the corners. Schroeder
promptly burgled second and
back-to-back free passes to
A. Ellerbrock and Berger
plated Schey. It also ended
Beinings pitching, with Kyle
Bendele coming in.
Ottovilles best chance to
score came in its last at-bat.
Boecker lined a hit to right
and Joe Van Oss was safe
on an error. Two outs hence,
Miller forced Boecker at third
to end the game.
The Blue Jays pushed the first run across in the bottom of
the third inning as Aaron Reindel, Seth Linder and Heiing singled in a row for a 1-0 lead.
The Wildcats came right back in the top half of the next
inning as Bullinger led off with a single and moved into scoring position with a steal of second. Aided by a pair of wild
pitches, Bullinger and designated hitter Brandan Herron scored
to move in front 2-1.
Mercer maintained the lead for the Wildcats as he struck out
three batters after surrendering a single to Youngpeter in the
bottom of the fourth.
Rassman and Mercer collected 1-out singles in the fifth
inning and Bullinger collected his third hit in as many at-bats
to score Rassman as the Wildcats extended their lead to 3-1.
The Blue Jays collected three hits in an inning for the
second time in the home half of the inning as Reindel, Linder
and Buddy Jackson singled. Mercer induced a double play and
escaped the inning unharmed on an infield pop-out.
Josh Warnecke took over on the hill for St. Johns in the
sixth inning and sent the Wildcats down in order.
Mercer matched Warnecke in the bottom of the frame.
Jefferson erupted in its final at-bat, loading the bases with
walks by Jace Stockwell, Mercer and Jacob Pulford. Bullinger
was retired but knocked in a run with a sacrifice fly to center.
The Wildcats scored their final two runs of the season on a pair
of costly errors by the St. Johns infield. Ryan Hellman became
the third pitcher for the Jays and wasted no time getting the
final out as St. Johns trailed 6-1.
Mercer got the first two outs of the seventh. Heiing wasnt
ready to call it a career yet with a bloop single to left, followed
by a Linder hit. Mercer finished his complete game, fielding a
dribbler and tossing to Pulford at first for the final out.
We put all phases of our game together tonight, Geary
explained. After getting some runners aboard early, we finally
dented the plate in the fourth inning with some timely hitting.
I give our seniors a lot of credit after we started the year off
0-7. They kept our team together and focused to end the year
with 10 wins.
St. Johns ends the season with a 11-14 record.
I was disappointed by our performance tonight, Blue
Jay coach Jerry Jackson commented. After being eliminated
in the first round of the sectionals, we havent been the same
team. For the season as a whole, Im pleased because these
guys went from two wins last year to 11 wins this season.
This experience gives us building blocks for next year with all
of our starting pitching back. Our offense batted .361 against
non-league teams this season but only .264 against Midwest
Athletic Conference pitchers. This tells me that we need to
work on hitting in the off-season.
Jefferson improved during the year to end strong at 10-15.

Obedience
The story of Adam and Eve is difficult to

understand. Why was eating from the tree of
knowledge of good and evil prohibited? The
knowledge of good and evil is the root of having a conscience, and having a conscience is
invariably praised as a good thing. The account
in Genesis links eating from the tree of knowledge with death: You are free to eat from any
tree in the garden; but you must not eat from
the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for
when you eat from it you will certainly die.
(Genesis 2:16-17) Why was it necessary for
them to die if they ate from this tree? These are
perhaps unanswerable questions, and while it
certainly is cause for wonder why knowledge of

good and evil is linked to our mortality, perhaps
a simpler way to look at this story is to remember that it is part of the creation story, and God
is making the rules as he makes the world. What
he says literally creates the rules, just as it creates the world, and Adam and Eve were cut off
from the tree of life because they were disobedient. Jesus restored our access to it by being
obedient to Gods will, accepting an agonizing
and ignominious death on a cross. Are we being
obedient to Gods will in our life?
Christopher Simon
And He said, Abba, Father, all things are possible for you.
Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but
what You will.
Mark 14:36

Delphos has a 166-year-old,

one-room brick school
Window
to the
Past
This school still stands on the
northwest corner of Fourth and
Jefferson streets, west of the house.
It looks like a garage, as it has a
large wooden door on the south
side. After no longer being used as
a school house, it was later converted into a carriage house and then a
garage.
John Wahmhoff (local historian) stated that, It was late in the
40s that a small, brick, one-story
township schoolhouse was erected between Jefferson and Bredeick
Streets in Washington Township,
Van Wert County. It was then
known as the Section 10 schoolhouse. It was called this because it
was built two years before Delphos
was incorporated and called Section
Ten.
The Delphos Oracle newspaper,
dated May 11, 1853, stated: C.G.
Ferris advertises that he will teach a
select school on the west side of the
canal, in the schoolhouse there, for
two to four dollars. The old temple
of learning in which this school was
held is now (1902) the brick stable
on West 4th street, belonging to
Mrs. May Bowman.
When I last checked, it appears
that this school building is older
than any existing building in Lima
or Van Wert City. In Lima is the
Tanner House. Located in the yard
of the brick house, on the northeast
corner of Central and High streets,
is a free-standing, metal marker
with a text: Historic home, Erected
in 1852, of handmade bricks, this
house, still occupied in 1976, is
one of Limas oldest landmarks.
Situated on part of outlot #21 of the

original city addition, the residence
now fronts Central Ave., known as
Tanner Ave. before 1897. Chain of
title abstracts on record at Allen
County Museum.
Designated a bicentennial landmark by the Lima Board of Realtors,
1976.
In the city of Van Wert, it appears
that the oldest existing building is a
3 story building, the J.H. Kauk and
A.B. McCurdy, built in 1861-62 still
stands in the Kauk, McCurdy block.
(I could not find another one
room brick schoolhouse, older than
ours, within 50 miles of Delphos.

Some Early History

of Delphos
Public Schools
The old Delphos one-room
school soon became too small, so,
as a makeshift, the basement of the
old Methodist Church was used
as a school room for several years
(corner of Third and Washington
streets).
The next school building erected
was a frame structure (located on
what is now the southeast corner
of Third and Pierce street). This
building was one story, 30x57 feet.
It was built by Allen County and
maintained by them for some time.
Later, this ground was occupied b y
Mr. Michael Summers. Delphos, at
this time, had two school districts,
Van Wert County side and Allen
County side.
The qualified voters of Delphos
met in this old school in 1859 and
voted to organize the Delphos

School District. (This was probably the reason the first Jefferson
school was also known as the Union
School.) The old frame school was
sold at public sale, cut into two
parts, with both fronting as residences on the east side of Pierce
street between 2nd and 3rd streets.
Theodore Wrocklage, a Catholic,
was so concerned that the city have a
top-flight high school that he bought
all the bonds issued for construction
of the citys first high school, the
Delphos Union School, (where the
Delphos Jefferson Middle School
is now) the day it was issued, to
give the district a head start toward
excellence. Then he burned many of
the bonds so that the city never had
to pay them back.
In the year 1868, the Delphos
School District voted a bond of
indebtedness of $30,000 to erect
the 3-story, 12-room Jefferson High
School. The building was continually used until 1909, when it was
condemned by state authorities as
unsafe and unsanitary, and ordered
torn down in 1910 to make room
for a more modern and fire-proof
structure.
The German Department school,
on the corner of First and Franklin
streets, the property of St. Johns
Congregation, was a three story
brick structure. The public school
district, needing more space,
secured the use of it free of charge,
using at first, three rooms on the
west side of the building. Later on,
after the congregation built the St.
Marys building, they secured the

Bids to Tear
Down Old Jefferson
Building
The School Board was in session
Thursday evening. The bid of P.P.
Welty, of Columbus Grove, offering to buy the old Jefferson school
building for $200 or for $650 if the
board would buy the saved brick
at $4 per thousand, or to tear down
the school for them for $1,200 was
rejected.
President Burnett and Secretary
Weger entered into a contract with
Frank Brickner of Washington
Township to raze the building with
all possible haste. Mr. Brickner will
supertend the work, and expects to
start the work about the middle of
next week.
Harry Shaffer will remove the
slate roof, and the work of demolition will start on the building
proper.
The old school bell, that for
many years called the scholars to
their studies, has been removed
from the bell tower, and placed at
the rear of the Weer building on
Main street. It is quite likely that
the bell will be placed in the new
building to continue in service. The
old bell is of much interest to many
people. It was cast by Fultans Son
& Company in Pittsburgh in 1969.

Letter to the Editor
Teacher makes birthday special

DEAR EDITOR,
I recently contacted Mrs. Tammy Wirth from the Delphos
Jefferson High School, asking for her help in surprising my
mom for her birthday, as I live far away and wasnt able to celebrate with her in person. I was hoping Mrs. Wirth wouldnt
think my request was too strange and that she could find a
choir member willing to perform a singing telegram of sorts.
Mrs. Wirth met my idea with great enthusiasm and lots of
ideas of how to pull off the surprise. She also found not one,
but two fantastic singers to participate.
Out of my appreciation, I would like to recognize and
thank Mrs. Wirth and her two very talented students, Emma
Wurst (a senior) and Sarah Fitch (a sophomore), for helping
me give my mother such a memorable surprise. They sang the
song Sisters from the movie White Christmas, a favorite
of ours. Everyone in my family said they did a great job, and
thanks to Mrs. Wirths sending me a video recording, even I
was able to see and hear how well they performed.
I would also like to point out that our schools art programs
and teachers like Mrs. Wirth give our students and our communities special moments like these, and so I would encourage everyone to enjoy and promote these talented students by
attending their different concerts and recitals.
Thank you so much Emma, Sarah, and Mrs. Wirth!
Sincerely,
Ashley Albridge
New beginnings
and old familiarity
I recently went through numerous
years of Heralds looking for something requested by a reader. I came
across the series by Roger Geise
on his perspective of Main Street
Delphos from when he was a child
and would ride his bike home from
school. That is still one of my most
favorite things I have put in the newspaper to date.
Being a lifelong resident myself,
I also have fond memories of a
simpler time filled with long days
at the pool, sunny summer weeks at
the lake cottage, ice skating on the
frozen Miami-Erie Canal and near
the Hanser Family Pavilion under the
perpetually leaky old water tower,
tromping through Georges Jungle
whispering about urban legends and
neighborhood games of kickball and
football.
On a good summer day, the canal
On the
Other Hand
itself could provide hours of entertainment catching tadpoles, turtles

and the occasional fish. I spent
many an afternoon laying on the
sun-warmed tiles at Tenth Street just
watching the water go by while I dangled a stick in the water.
I dont see much interaction with
the canal anymore. It used to be
packed with anglers in the spring and
summer and ice skaters in the winter.
At one time, the canal was a big deal
for us who lived along its banks.
I couldnt move away fast enough
when I graduated from high school
and quickly found that the big city
far from family and friends was less
than liberating.
Most teens think of the freedom of
moving away. They long for places
they go where they wont see the
same people and no one knows their
business or their parents.
Common traits of successful people

If you have a child, grandchild or
a family friend graduating from high
school or college this commencement
season, they might ask you: What does
it take in todays world to be successful?
Martin Buxbaum once said, You can
use almost any measure when youre
speaking of success. You can measure it
in a fancy home, expensive car or dress.
But the measure of your real success is
one you cannot spend. Its the way your
son (or daughter) describes you when
hes (shes) talking to a friend.
You might also start out by telling them it takes passion, perseverance and perspiration. Thats what Joan
Lloyd, a Milwaukee-based executive
coach, author, consultant and speaker, said 20 years ago (June 11, 1995)
in a Milwaukee Sentinel column. Her
research on the subject found some common denominators that transcend each
person and each generation of successful
people.
Lloyd poured over a list of special
qualities of successful people and found
the following 17 characteristics that
were most compelling. You might want
to share them with your loved ones as
they begin the next leg of lifes journey.
1. They are survivors. They have
experienced disappointment and setbacks, yet they always find a way to
bounce back. They are truly resilient and
courageous.
2. They make the most of opportunities they are given and create their
own opportunities where there are none.
They seek the crack in the wall or the
way over the fence instead of complaining about unfairness or giving up.
3. They look for ways to add value.
Doing enough isnt enough for them.
They go beyond the minimum and

4. They ignore critics. They

and hopes on fire. Their strength

and a singular focus on their goals.
They even use their critics words

People Make
the Difference
The reality can be quite a shock for

those moving away from tight-knit
communities like we enjoy here. For
along with the freedom and anonymity, comes freedom and anonymity.
No one cares that you were the
star football player, head cheerleader
or valedictorian. You are judged on a
whole new set of rules. Those things
that make you who you are in your
hometown dont mean a whole lot to
other people.
You are already starting to see stories on our newest graduates. Seniors
are wrapping up their secondary education careers and heading off for
college, the service or a job. Its a
very exciting and scary time.
New beginnings always seem to be
balanced with the comfort of familiarity. While our graduates embrace
their last months before the next step
in their lives.

Ensuring law enforcement officers have the resources they need

BY US SENATOR
SHERROD BROWN
The unrest weve seen in
Cleveland, Baltimore, and Ferguson
makes it clear our cities are
hurting.
Meanwhile, the overwhelming
majority of law enforcement officials report to work each day and
are willing to risk their lives to
protect us. But their actions are
being overshadowed by some bad
actors. Rebuilding the broken trust
between our citizens and the officers who have sworn to protect
them is essential.
But the Republican budget
agreement passed earlier this month
could reduce
funding for
our municipalities
and police
departments
by
cutting Byrne
J u s t i c e
Assistance
Grants
Brown
known as
the Byrne JAG
program by up to $24 million.
Now is not the time to drastically
cut funding that our local police
departments use to serve their communities.
Last week my office released
a report detailing the Byrne JAG

Program funding Ohio police
departments received over the last
fiscal yearfunding that could be
in jeopardy if these severe cuts are
approved. 39 Ohio police departments have received grants totaling
more than $15 million.
Local municipalities and departments use these grants to test new
approaches to community policing
efforts, and to incorporate innovative technology, like body cameras.
These cameras are often a valuable tool to improving police-community relations. In some instances,
body cameras have been found to
reduce the use of force by officers
as much as 60 percent, and to reduce
citizen complaints against police by

as much as 88 percent, according
to a report by the Department of
Justices Office of Justice Programs
Diagnostic Center.
During this weeks National
Police Week, I joined law enforcement officials to say enough is
enough. We cannot and should
not be cutting key federal resources when department budgets are
already stretched thin. Were calling
for full funding of the Byrne JAG
program.
As we fight for full funding,
my office is working to ensure
that police departments receive
assistance in applying for competitive grant programs that help
keep communities and police

officers safe. We are holding
seminars around the state on how
local governments can apply for
Byrne JAG Grants, with two seminars this Wednesday, at Cuyahoga
Community College in Cleveland
and at OSU in Columbus.
Instead of cutting funding at time
when departments are struggling,
we should be investing in expanded
law enforcement training and new
technology to support our officers.
Our cities are hurting we
need to give our police departments the resources they need to
protect and rebuild trust with their
communities.

Did You
Know?
Dining outdoors
when the weather is
warm can make for
a pleasant change of
pace. While certain
aspects of eating outside can be enticing,
Mother Nature can
sometimes complicate the experience.
Wind is one challenge
to dining outside, as
diners may find themselves chasing paper
napkins or airborne
plastic cups on windy
afternoons or evenings. To safeguard
against the wind, rely
on reusable, heavy
plastic items that are
less likely to blow
away in the wind.
Also, keep tablecloths in place with
a few supplies. Use
a grommet-making
tool to punch holes
into the tablecloth
and attach plastic
or metal grommets.
Place the tablecloth
on the table and slip a
thin bungee cord fastener to a grommet on
the underside of the
table. Stretch the cord
across to a grommet
on the other side of
the tablecloth and
secure. Two or three
sets of grommets and
bungee cords may
be all you need to
keep the tablecloth in
place and enjoy an interruption-free meal
outside.

Trustees change
meeting to May 26
Information Submitted
The Marion Township Trustees held their regular scheduled
meeting Monday with the following members present: Jerry
Gilden, Joseph Youngpeter and Howard Violet.
The purpose of the meeting was to pay bills and conduct
ongoing business. The minutes of the previous meeting were
read and approved as read.
The trustees then reviewed the bills and gave approval for 17
checks totaling $10,700.88.
Road Foreman Elwer reported a catch basin along Conant
Road needs replaced.
Fiscal Officer Kimmet gave the Trustees the Bank
Reconciliation and the Fund Status reports to review and sign.
He advised the trustees that the next scheduled meeting falls
on Memorial Day and it was decided to change the meeting to
7 p.m. May 26.
Trustee Violet made a motion that a Site Review needs to take
place by the Allen Soil and Water Conservation District on any
undeveloped parcel in Marion Township where development is
being proposed. For a Site Review to be done, there needs to be
an application filed with the Townships Zoning Inspector along
with a payment that the ASWCD charges for the review. At that
time the Township will contact the ASWCD and give them the
approval to do the Site Review. Trustee Youngpeter seconded
the motion which passed unanimously.
Police Chief Vermillion gave the Trustees the March and
April activity report from the Allen County Sheriffs Dept.
There being no further business a motion by Trustee Violet
to adjourn was seconded by Trustee Youngpeter and passed
unanimously.

In addition to avoiding direct contact between
migratory and domestic birds, its important to
prevent indirect contact, as well. Dr. El-Gazzar
offers these suggestions. For example, if theres
an open body of water nearby that attracts wild
birds, dont go out, potentially step in fecal
material, and then come back to your birds and
transmit an infection,
Protect birds from other poultry populations.
We dont encourage mixing flocks, mixing ages
or mixing species, El-Gazzar said. Visitors to
your bird flock, whether theyre from the neighborhood or from other farms, are highly discouraged. Commercial producers or backyard poultry
owners should boost insect and rodent control
efforts. Make sure your houses are animal-proof,
so that raccoons, opossums or any varmints cant
get in, and bird-proof so that wild birds cant get
School
Superintendent Scott Mangas was pleased
to announce all teaching and other staff positions are filled for the 2015-16 school year.
The three newest teachers are Gina Bonifas,
third grade; Jena Altenburger, fourth grade;
and Crista Swint, aide for the cross-categorical unit.
We had more than two dozen applicants
for those positions and these three really
stood out, Mangas told the school board.
We are set and ready to go.
A list of 30 graduates was approved for
commencement ceremonies set at 1 p.m.
Sunday at the high school. The last day for
students is May 22 with 1 p.m. dismissal.
In other business, the board:

into stomp-mode. I imagine they saw in

Barack a dog or coyote. Fortunately, this
passed within a few seconds when they realized he was not, and there were no more
incidents.
Thats not to say Baracks early days were
all kumbaya. After Barack and his family
were released into what I call the general
population of ewes and lambs, he kept to
himself, and didnt interact and form friendships with non-sibling lambs like so many of
them do. At night, most of the lambs would
lounge in the corners of the pen, often two or
three deep, making skin contact to stay warm.
Barack never did that. I found this odd, and as
it was early March and still dreadfully cold,
also sad.
Those feelings evaporated a few mornings later. While rounding a gate-post during
chore-time, I was nearly run over by a romping band of lambs led by young Mr. Orama.
Apparently, with familiarity came acceptance,
and Barack was now just one of the pack,
except I always knew who he was, no eartags
required.
So where did Barack get the black wool?
From his parents, of course, and the intricacies of genetics. Wool genetics, with many
natural colors, plus patterns such as spots and
facial stripes, is a complicated and mind-boggling science. Yet, a solid black lamb like
Barack is the result of a simple recessive gene,
one inherited from each parent.
If you recall from biology class, a gene is
both locally and at state.

In Division II, Tony
Sanders was awarded third
place in poetry. Noah Heiing
locally was runner-up and
took third at the state level.
Finally, Nickolas Ditto
received first place honors
for his poetry locally and at
the statewide contest.

Colt
the basic unit of heredity passed from parent

to offspring. Located on a chromosome, a
gene is actually a distinct sequence of building blocks called nucleotides. It is thought
that 3.2 billion of these nucleotides make up
the human genome. Im not sure how many
make up the sheep genome, but since sheep
have 54 chromosomes compared to the human
46, theres likely to be as many, if not more. It
is the specific order of these nucleotides that
make every living thing what it is. A change in
the sequence of even one can produce dramatic effects, such as making what should have
been a white lamb have black wool.
When studied at the molecular level, the
genetic differences which made Barack look
like Barack, and Joe look like all the other
lambs, are infinitesimally small. The traits
they share as brothers and sheep vastly exceed
those which set them apart.
People are a lot like that, too. It has been
estimated that we humans share 99.9% of our
genetic material. What this means is that in
spite of all our various shapes and sizes, skin
colors, hair colors, eye colors, and, perhaps,
even choice of partner, the things we have
in common far, far outweigh any differences
between us.

TASE
TASERs operate on a simple principle: two small, barbed electrodes, delivered as projectiles, introduce an average of 1,200 volts.
The resultant shock overstimulates both sensory and motor nerves,
causing strong, involuntary muscle contractions. In short, most suspects are zapped with enough juice to lay them out, rigid and flat.
While, nationally, some law enforcement officers were equipped
with TASERs as early as 1991, locally, deployment of the CEDs
most commonly took place with the advent of the X26 model in
early 2003. Such was the case with the Sheriffs Departments in
Allen and Putnam counties and the police departments in Ottoville
and Fort Jennings. In Delphos, it wasnt until current Chief of
Police Kyle Fittro took office in 2009 that TASERs became standard equipment and that delay may have proven of benefit to the
department.
As the use of TASERs has become more common, more widespread, and as social media flourished, the weapons reputation has
often proven just as effective as the tool itself. Videos of real-life
encounters featuring the use of a TASER, as well as fictional scenarios screened on crime-based television series, offered viscerally
effective life-lessons in just how CEDs function. As a consequence,
Fittro and his officers often experience a phenomenon referred to
as red-dotting.
Police-issued CEDs are fitted with laser sights, the kind that,
when in use, express themselves as a pinpoint of red light a red
dot on the target.
Theyve seen it on television; they know whats coming next,
Fittro said. Eight or nine times out of ten, thats enough.
And there is compelling evidence that the use of CEDs has
reduced the number of injuries in both officers and suspects when
used in the course of an arrest. According to the National Insitute
of Justice, the research and scientific arm of the United States
Department of Justice, over 11,000 American law enforcement
agencies use CEDs. Studies commissioned by the NIJ show
declines in suspect injuries in major metropolitan areas that range
as high as 50 percent since the relevant departments engaged in fullscale deployment of CEDs.
However, while considered a boon by many law enforcement officers, TASERs remain at the center of a host of controversies. Detractors
cite their potential for abuse, documented cases where CEDs have
caused serious injury and death, the unknown long-term effects of tasing and a recently completed pilot study conducted by researchers at
Arizona State University has the potential to radically change both the
defense and prosecution of suspects tased during arrest.

drivers license for at least 90
days up to a maximum of two
years, plus four points added to

Together, we must commit

to making a safer Ohio, by stopping senseless tragedies associated with irresponsible and illegal underage alcohol consumption. If you have information

selling beer and/or liquor to persons under the age of 21; or you
have information of an underage house party, please notify
the Ohio Investigative Unit by
calling the #677 on your cell

The
The thing is, there are too many skinny-to-normal people who become offended at seeing or
associating with overweight people. We had a
month or so of the story of a perky little TV news
reporter having a fit when her car was towed. Ms.
Perky then proceeded to have a fit at the parking
attendant who may or may not have actually done
the towing. The whining and hatefulness was far
less than perky, despite the ladys attempt to appear
better than everyone else. But her parting shot for
the parking attendant was, You might want to lose
some weight, honey. It was said with such snobbery that it made me want to find her and force-feed
her bonbons until her thighs were too big for her
slacks. She went to the illusion that her smaller size
made her a better person. After all, an overweight
person obviously has problems.
I didnt really start a diet a few months ago. I just
decided to change the way I eat. I did it to better my
health. After all, I am sliding well past the half-century mark. In another decade I may not be able to
move well enough to get out of bed without the help
of heavy equipment. No time like the present. But
for the fat-nazis, theyre sure its so I can look more
like them. Im never going to have abs that resemble
a six-pack, unless you count a six-pack that explod-
ed from all the pressure canned up inside. At some

point, I may look better and weigh less, but Im not
holding my breath. But there is so much hatred of
the overweight it wont appease the masses.
Fat guys are seen as lazy. Sometimes thats right.
Sometimes thats wrong. Ive worked with plenty of
guys in my life who were skinny and lazy. Perhaps
it was because they didnt ingest enough calories to
put in a hard days work, I dont know. I do know
that Ive never been offended by the looks of someone who weighs the correct weight. And Im not
sure why anyone should be offended by another
persons lifestyle choice when that choice does not
affect others in any way.
But I do know that if I lose another 75-or-so
pounds, I wont be offended by Bubbas beer belly.
People are people. You are immediately known as a
racist if you are offended by people of other races, as
a xenophobe if you are offended by people of other
countries, as a sexist if another gender draws your
ire or disgust. And new words are being created
seemingly every day to deal with peoples offenses
at fellow human beings and their differences. My
vote is for people to treat each other as people, not
someone who needs to change to keep from offending me. Its not all about me, after all. Or about you
either. Now, Im going to go buy some bon bons.
