DELPHOS Six years
ago, Buzz and Ellen Ditto
sold their house, most of their
belongings and embarked on
the Carpenters Ministry.
God told us he had a plan
for us, Ellen said.
Since then, the couple has
traveled to seven different
states helping rebuild homes
damaged by hurricanes and
tornadoes and repair homes
for those who cant afford
traditional contractors.
This past year, they joined
volunteers from around the
country to give 30,000 volun-
teer hours in Alabama, repair-
ing homes damaged in the
more than 17 tornadoes, one
an F5, that left a 75-mile path
of destruction in April 2011.
There were more than 300
homes damaged and destroyed,
Buzz said. We helped rebuild
30 and repair 80.
On Sept. 28, the Dittos will
share their calling with vol-
unteers to provide Laborers
On Us in Delphos to help
raise funds for their next mis-
sion year.
We are asking for vol-
unteers to help do minor
home repairs and chores that
are needed and donations of
materials and funds, Ellen
said. We also need people
to share their needs with us.
Projects can include win-
dow/door repairs, painting,
minor roof repairs, gutter
cleaning, yard cleanup, inside
cleaning, listening/visiting,
reading, etc.
Those who would like to
donate, volunteer or need
help should visit Trinity
United Methodist Church at
211 E. Third St., Delphos;
call the church at 419-692-
0651; or call the Dittos at
419-233-3524 by Wednesday.

DELPHOS No where else in the school system does any-
one take on more responsibility for safety of the kids than the
school bus driver who is a trained first responder and behavior-
ist that develops genuine relationships with the kids.
School bus driver Barb Haggard started driving in 1995
after she and her family moved back to Delphos.
My mom was a bus driver, Haggard explained. With
three boys getting into sports, I decided thats what I wanted
to do.
Haggard said it took 10 years working as a sub before she
received a contract and a daily route of picking kids up and
dropping them off. She also began to drive kids to and from
field trips and sporting events.
My first route was for kids from Delphos who had minor
behavioral issues, Haggard detailed. These kids were aban-
doned, lost and had no help at home.
She says she developed a connection to some of them who
she sees once in a while.
A couple of them are doing alright, she said. Its nice that
they found success.
Haggard said that when the kids come on the bus she and the
kids say hello, use first names and speak eye to eye.
They may have already had a bad morning with Mom and
Dad, Haggard said. When I drop them off, I tell them to have
a good night.
As for bullying, Haggard and all bus drivers have had in-
services to handle those situations.
I watch which kids instigate or I hear comments and cor-
rect the kids, she said. If problems persist, I go to the build-
ing principal and the superintendent and we all work as a group
to help.

school bus than driving

15 dead as tropical
storm, hurricane
batter Mexico
ACAPULCO, Mexico (AP)
Tropical Storm Manuel edged
onto Mexicos Pacific coast
Sunday while Hurricane Ingrid
swirled offshore on the other
side of the country, as heavy
rains and landslides caused at
least 15 deaths and led authori-
ties to evacuate thousands.
Stormy conditions led some
communities in affected states
to cancel Independence Day cel-
ebrations planned for Sunday
and tonday.
The U.S. National Hurricane
Center said Manuel began to
weaken as soon as it made land-
fall near the port of Manzanillo
during the afternoon, but
remained a threat to produce
flash floods and mudslides. It
was predicted to dissipate by
Monday.
In the southern coastal state
of Guerrero, six people died
when their SUV lost control on
a rain-swept highway headed for
the tourist resort of Acapulco.
Landslides killed two people in
Guerrero, and the collapse of
a fence killed one person in
Acapulco.
Manuel had maximum sus-
tained winds of about 45 mph
(75 kph) and was moving to the
northwest at 9 mph (15 kph) late
Sunday afternoon. Its center was
about 15 miles (20 kilometers)
north of Manzanillo.
Rains from Ingrid caused
landslides that killed three
people in the central state of
Puebla, and a woman died when
a landslide buried her house in
Hidalgo state.
In the southern state of
Oaxaca, which was affected by
both storms, authorities said a
child died after being swept away
by a swollen river and a teenager
was killed by a landslide.
The hurricane center said
Ingrid, the second hurricane of
the Atlantic storm season, could
reach the Mexican mainland
early Monday after gathering
strength over the warm waters
of the Gulf of Mexico. It was
packing top sustained winds of
85 mph (140 kph) as it slowly
crawled toward land with little
change in strength in hours.
Manuel was expected to
dump 10 to 15 inches of rain
over parts of Guerrero and
Michoacan state, with maxi-
mums of 25 inches possible in
some isolated areas. Authorities
said those rains would present
an especially dangerous threat
in mountains, where flash floods
and mudslides were possible.
Ingrid also was expected
to dump very heavy rains. It
had maximum sustained winds
of 75 mph (120 kph) and was
centered about 110 miles (175
kilometers) east-northwest of
the port city of Tampico as it
moved west-northwest at 6 mph
(9 kph). A hurricane warning
was in effect from Cabo Rojo to
La Pesca.
Suzuki recalls 193,936
vehicles for air bag defect
DETROIT (AP)
Suzuki is recalling 193,936
cars and SUVs because of a
defective air bag sensor in
the front passenger seat.
Grand Vitara SUVs
from the 2006 through
2011 model years and SX4
small cars from the 2007
through 2011 model years
are involved.
Sensor mats measure
passengers weight and
determine if the air bag
should deploy. Determining
who sits in the seat is
important because the force
of an air bag can injure
children or small adults.
Suzuki says the mats can
stop working after repeated
flexing. If that happens, the
bag will deploy even if a
small person is in the seat.
The Japanese automaker
says there are no reports of
accidents or injuries due to
the problem.
Suzuki will notify own-
ers starting next month.
Dealers will replace the
mats for free.

Police: Ohio mobile home
fire kills man, 5 kids
TIFFIN (AP) A fast-moving fire claimed
the lives of a man and five children ages 6 and
under on Sunday morning when it swept through a
mobile home in northwest Ohio.
The fire was reported shortly before 8 a.m.
Sunday in a mobile home park in Tiffin, about
50 miles southeast of Toledo. Firefighters got all
six people out in about 12 minutes, but all were
pronounced dead at a hospital, Tiffin Fire Chief
William said.
Owanna Ortiz said her first cousin, Anna
Angel, was the childrens mother and lived in the
home with them and the man who died. She said
her cousin had four daughters of her own as well
as a son with the man.
She had a whole family and now she has noth-
ing, Ortiz said.
The family didnt have a car and had to get
around on bicycles, Oritz said.
If she had to get somewhere, they had two
strollers they had to take, but they made it work,
Ortiz said.
A stroller, a little pink bicycle and an adult
bicycle with a bike trailer could be seen outside the
home with its charred and broken windows.
The two oldest children were in kindergarten
and first grade, Ortiz said.
They were always happy and full of sun-
shine, she said. The older ones looked out for
the younger ones.
Ortiz said her cousin was working at a fast-food
restaurant at the time of the fire. The Toledo Blade
reported Angel visited the hospital where her chil-
dren were taken but it was not immediately clear
where she was staying.
Authorities would not confirm the identities or
relationships of those killed or comment on a pos-
sible cause. A state fire marshals investigator said
there were no indications of anything suspicious
and it could take up to two days before authorities
know how the six died.
We wont release any more information until
we know the cause of death, state investigator
Tim Spradlin said. A message was left Sunday for
Seneca Countys coroner.
Nancy Williams, who manages the Highland
Park Estates mobile home park and lives there,
said she yelled to her son to call 911 and ran to
the home when a neighbor alerted her to the blaze.
I knew there were babies in there, she said.
But once we got there, there was nothing we
could do. It was fully engulfed in flames and we
couldnt get in.
Ennis said there was heavy fire in the center of
the mobile home and heavy smoke throughout the
structure when firefighters arrived. Witnesses said
the fire burned quickly, breaking out windows and
peeling some of the trailers aluminum siding.
Williams voice broke as she described seeing
rescuers bringing the children from the home.
Its so heartbreaking, she said.
Another neighbor, Rick Hummell, 49, said he
also went to the home to see if he could help.
I watched the babies get dragged out,
Hummell said. It just made me sick.
Hummell said he often saw the children outside
and would give them money for ice cream. The
woman would often load up the trailer with the
children and ride through the mobile home park,
he said.
She was always good to her kids, Hummell
said.
Cheryl L. Opp, who lives nearby, said it was a
serene Sunday morning she went to walk the dogs
about a half hour before she heard them barking
and looked out window to see the mobile home
on fire.
She said the kids always seemed to be happy
and she saw them outside often.
This takes my heart away, Opp said.
Louis Keller, lived across the road from the
home that burned. They would come over and
play with my dogs, he said, as a strong smell of
smoke blew across his yard.
Harry Miller, chief of the Bascom Joint Fire
District outside Tiffin, said about 30 members of
his volunteer department assisted Tiffin firefighters.
Miller noted that fires involving children are
among the most difficult for firefighters to handle,
especially for those new to the job.
Advisory panel on Ohio
tourism lacks appointees
COLUMBUS (AP) A state advisory panel on tourism is lacking
appointments from the governor almost a year after the law that created
it took effect.
The law instructs Gov. John Kasich to appoint nine members to the
TourismOhio Advisory Board by late November of last year.
The panel of tourism-reliant members will help the states develop-
ment department and its tourism office market Ohio.
The vacancies on the panel were among the issues brought before
an Ohio House committee that is reviewing the states new tourism
marketing program, called TourismOhio.
Witnesses from numerous trade associations and businesses
stressed the importance of having a fully functioning TourismOhio
Advisory Board in order to provide guidance to and support the efforts
of the Office of TourismOhio, said state Rep. Mike Dovilla, the chair-
man of the House Committee on Policy and Legislative Oversight.
Kasich spokesman Rob Nichols said the governor asked the states
development director in July to help with the appointments, and hes
confident the slots will be filled soon.
As always with these board picks, its far more important to find
the right pick than to shoehorn warm bodies into there for the sake of
checking a box, Nichols said.
The governors appointees must come from a variety of tourism-
related fields, including convention and visitorsbureaus, special events
and festivals, the lodging and restaurant industries, and the states
attractions. The head of the states new tourism office also gets a seat,
along with the chief investment officer of the states private economic
development entity, JobsOhio.
David Goodman, director of the states Development Services
Agency, told the House oversight committee last week that a number
of people have expressed interest in the board seats. He said the agency
is being mindful about the boards makeup.
Each region and a broad range of interests and experience needs
to be represented on the board, Goodman said in written testimony.

valid Ohio hunting license and
a valid deer permit.

Insidious sequel scares up box-office success
LOS ANGELES (AP)
Moviegoers had an appetite
for fright this weekend, sending
Insidious: Chapter 2 to the top of
the box office.
The haunted-house horror sequel
debuted in first place with $41 mil-
lion, more than tripling the opening
take of the 2010 original.
Debuting on Friday the 13th,
FilmDistricts Insidious: Chapter
2 scored the highest September
opening day ever, said box-office
analyst Paul Dergarabedian of
Hollywood.com.
It was a perfect release date for
this movie, he said. James Wan
has cracked the code on making
great horror movies.
The director had another first-
place opener earlier this summer
with the The Conjuring, anoth-
er haunted-house thriller starring
Patrick Wilson. Wilson returns in
Insidious 2, playing a husband
and father with some scary personal
baggage.
FilmDistricts president of dis-
tribution, Jim Orr, said the films
ticket sales nearly doubled studio
expectations.
Its great to be in business with
Blumhouse Productions and James
Wan, he said. Theyre just ridicu-
lously talented and delivered a phe-
nomenal film.
Another newcomer, Relativity
Medias Robert De Niro-Michelle
Pfeiffer crime caper The Family,
opened in second place with $14.5
million. That bumped last weeks
champ, Riddick, to third.
The Weinstein Co.s Lee Daniels
The Butler continued its strong
performance with a fourth-place fin-
ish that saw North American ticket
sales cross the $100 million mark.
The Jennifer Aniston-Jason
Sudeikis Warner Bros. road-trip
comedy Were the Millers round-
ed out the top five.
Both The Butler and Were
the Millers have been in theaters
for more than a month, contribut-
ing to a hearty box-office thats
been up the past four consecutive
weeks after a record-breaking sum-
mer season.
These movies have legs week
after week, and thats bolstering the
entire marketplace, Dergarabedian
said. If you just have the brand-
new movies doing well and the
holdovers are dropping like rocks,
then you have a problem.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday

through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian
theaters, according to Hollywood.
com. Where available, latest inter-
national numbers for Friday through
Sunday are also included. Final
domestic figures will be released on
Monday.
1. Insidious: Chapter 2, $41
million ($5 million international).
2. The Family, $14.5 million.
3. Riddick, $7 million ($9.6
million international).
4. Lee Daniels The Butler,
$5.58 million ($2.5 million inter-
national).
5. Were the Millers, $5.4 mil-
lion ($9 million international).
6. Instructions Not Included,
$4.25 million.
7. Planes, $3.06 million ($10.7
8. One Direction: This Is Us,
$2.4 million.
9. Elysium, $2.05 million ($8.5
10. Percy Jackson: Sea of
Monsters, $1.82 million ($7.8 mil-
lion international).

tional theaters (excluding the U.S.
and Canada) for films distributed
overseas by Hollywood studios,
according to Rentrak:

2. White House Down, $13
million.
3. Planes, $10.7 million.
4. Riddick, $9.6 million.

lion.

Twitter flies from obscurity to the height of fame
MICHAEL LIEDTKE
AP Technology Writer
NEW YORK The Pope. President Obama. Queen
Elizabeth. Oprah. You.
When Twitter started seven years ago as an obscure
medium for geeks, critics dismissed it as an exercise in nar-
cissism. Some thought it would be as intriguing as watching
people gaze at their bellybuttons. But it quickly matured
into a worldwide messaging service used by everyone from
heads of state to revolutionaries to companies trying to
hawk products.
Now, Twitter is taking the next critical step
in its evolution selling stock to the public.
It promises to be the most hyped and scruti-
nized initial public offerings since Facebooks
Wall Street debut in May 2012. To be suc-
cessful, the company will need to become an
advertising behemoth and prove that the same
service that has already helped change the
course of history can also make money.
Twitter quietly slipped out news of its plan
to go public in a tweet on Thursday afternoon. By the next
morning, nearly 14,000 of Twitters 200 million users had
retransmitted the message.
Twitter epitomizes the revolution of social media
more than Facebook, more than YouTube, says Fordham
University communications professor Paul Levinson,
author of New New Media. It caters to the immediacy,
the equality of all users.
And yet, Twitter really isnt that big. Only about 15 per-
cent of Americans say theyve ever used Twitter, according
to an August poll by the Pew Internet and American Life
Project. Thats up from 9 percent in June 2010. At the time
of Facebooks IPO, an AP-CNBC poll found that 56 percent
of Americans said they had pages on Facebook. Some 17
percent said they used the site several times a day.
Twitters 200 million global users represent about one-
sixth of Facebooks 1.16 billion. If Facebook were a coun-
try, it would be the worlds third-largest behind China and
India. Twitter would clock in at No. 6, edging out Pakistan.
Even so, Twitter generates more news than Facebook.
A big part of that is its public nature, Levinson says. With
their messages of 140 characters or less, most people
tweet openly, for better or for worse, allowing the world a
glimpse at their thoughts. Facebook, in contrast, gives its
users a plethora of controls to hide or show posts to as many
or as few people as theyd like. That means many users
share updates only with people they already know.
You can rub elbows with famous people instantly,
Levinson says, noting that people can send a message to the
president or a movie star just as easily as they communicate
with a friend. Thats what makes communication in the
21st century radically different from any time in the past.
It wasnt until Twitter that the combination of speed and
access to anyone became available for everyone.
Twitter might never have become the worlds digital
watercooler if Noah Glass and Evan Williams had con-
vinced more people to tune into a podcasting service called
Odeo started in 2005. Less than a year after its birth, it
became apparent that Odeo was destined to be a dud. Not
even its own employees were using it that much.
By early 2006, Glass and fellow Odeo programmer Jack
Dorsey began work on a new project. They were given the
go-ahead to work with co-worker Christopher Biz Stone
on a way to corral the menagerie of text messages typically
sent over a phone. It was an offshoot of Dorseys longtime
fascination with the dispatch systems used by police cars,
fire trucks, delivery trucks and taxis. Dorsey even wrote
dispatch software in one of his first jobs.
It was Glass who came up with the original
name Twttr in a reference to chirping birds. (The
two vowels were added later.) On March 21,
2006, Dorsey posted the worlds first tweet: Just
setting up my twttr. Glass posted the same words
just 10 minutes later.
By 2007, Twitter was incorporated with
Dorsey as the original CEO and Williams as
chairman. Dorsey and Williams would eventu-
ally swap roles. Both remain major shareholders,
though neither runs the company. Dick Costolo, a former
Google executive and once an aspiring stand-up comedian,
is now CEO.
Despite his early involvement in Twitter, Glass was
never promoted as one of the companys founders along
with Dorsey, Stone and Williams. Glass, though, proudly
boasts of his role on a Twitter account that he rarely uses.
His Twitter profile states: I started this.
Perhaps Twitters greatest appeal is that it allows users
to see news unfold in real time. People can follow and even
communicate with newsmakers. And they can witness his-
tory. In 2009, Twitter became an essential communication
tool in Iran as the countrys government cracked down on
traditional media after a disputed presidential election. Tech-
savvy Iranians took to Twitter to organize protests. As the
events unfolded, they used the service to send messages and
pictures to the outside world. Twitter played a similar role in
the 2011 Arab Spring uprisings in Egypt and other countries.
Today, a billion tweets are sent every two and a half
days. To be fair, most tweets dont comprise the worlds
weightiest matters. They are ruminations about lunch, the
weather and Justin Bieber and occasionally they involve
career-crashing missteps of the Anthony Weiner sort.
Like Facebook, Twitter reaps most of its revenue from
advertising. Research firm eMarketer estimates that Twitter
will generate $582.8 million in worldwide ad revenue this
year, up from $288.3 million in 2012.
While companies are flocking to Twitter to woo consum-
ers, not all of them are convinced of its usefulness. More
than 60 percent of U.S. marketers use Twitter, according to
Forrester Research analyst Nate Elliott, but he says they are
not fully satisfied with the results. Twitter, he says, still
needs to improve the way it targets advertisements to users
and it needs to find more types of ads to sell.
Still, by 2015, eMarketer expects Twitters annual ad
revenue to hit $1.33 billion.
Phylicia Rashad takes
on directing role
WASHINGTON (AP)
Phylicia Rashad is best known
for starring roles on stage and
television, but as a director
she decided to commemorate
a historic moment that helped
spur the civil rights move-
ment.
The Tony Award-winning
actress directed a reading of
the play Four Little Girls:
Birmingham 1963 at the
Kennedy Center Sunday to
mark the 50th anniversa-
ry of the bombing at 16th
Street Baptist Church in
Birmingham, Ala. Four girls
were killed in the explo-
sion, which was set by white
supremacists and helped spur
passage of landmark civil
rights legislation.
Rashad, who is recognized
for her portrayal as the matri-
arch on The Cosby Show
TV series and Broadways
A Raisin in the Sun, said
she wanted the reading to
emphasize the sanctity of
joy, human existence and the
value of all life.

Haltons homer in 9th lifts Brewers over Reds 6-5
By RICH ROVITO
Associated Press
MILWAUKEE Sean
Halton hit a solo homer
with one out in the bottom
of the ninth inning to lift
the Milwaukee Brewers to
a 6-5 comeback victory
over the Cincinnati Reds
on Sunday.
Haltons home run came
off reliever Zach Duke
(1-2), the fifth Cincinnati
pitcher. It was Haltons
third homer of the season
and first career walk-off.
Jean Segura sparked a
rally with a 2-run triple
and Carlos Gomez made
a game-saving catch for
Milwaukee, which dealt
a big blow to the Reds
pursuit of the NL Central
title. The Brewers entered
the eighth trailing 5-2.
Seguras hit came after
Reds relievers walked the
first two batters of the
inning. Jonathan Lucroy
followed with a sacrifice
fly to tie it.
Jim Henderson (4-5)
pitched a scoreless inning
in relief to pick up the
win.
Gomez robbed Jay
Bruce of what would have
been a 3-run homer in the
ninth when he extended
over the center field fence
with two outs.
The Brewers survived
a shaky outing by start-
er Yovani Gallardo, who
was tagged for five runs
on seven hits over six
innings. He walked three
and struck out five.
Reds starter Bronson
Arroyo pitched effectively
into the seventh, surren-
dering two runs on three
hits over 6 1/3 innings.
He walked four, struck out
one and didnt give up a
hit until Segura singled
leading off the fourth.
The Reds, who lead the
NL wild card race and
remain in the hunt for a
division title, got on the
board in the first inning
when Gallardo labored
through a 39-pitch
inning.
Brandon Phillips had
a run-scoring single,
Ryan Ludwick drew a
bases-loaded walk and
Zach Cozart delivered
a sacrifice fly to help the
Reds jump out to a 3-0
lead. Gallardo faced eight
batters in the opening
frame.
Todd Frazier s RBI
single with two outs
in the third extended
Cincinnatis lead to 4-0.
Caleb Gindls leadoff
homer in the fifth gave
Milwaukee its first run of
the game, cutting the lead
to 4-1.
Fraziers homer lead-
ing off the sixth to push
the Reds advantage back
to four.
Arroyo got into a bit
of trouble in the seventh.
He walked the first two
batters before retiring
Gindl on a fly ball. He
departed after issuing his
third walk of the inning.
The Brewers then scored a
run on a fielders choice,
but Cincinnati reliever
Sam LeCure retired Jeff
Bianchi on a grounder out
to end the threat.
Notes: Reds RHP
Johnny Cueto, who hasnt
pitched since June 28 due
to an injured lat muscle,
is scheduled to start today
against Houston. Reds
manager Dusty Baker
offered congratulations to
Wladmir Balentien, who
set the Japanese single-
season record Sunday
when he hit his 57th home
run. Balentien played for
the Reds in 2009, the last
season he appeared in
MLB. I am glad for him.
He always had the poten-
tial. He had a problem
conforming to some things
and he learned some les-
sons. Who knows, maybe
he will play his way back
over here. Arroyo
reached 30 starts for the
ninth consecutive season,
an active streak bettered
only by Torontos Mark
Buehrle, who has done it
13 years in a row.
Ravens rely on defense in 14-6 win over Browns
By DAVID GINSBURG
Associated Press
BALTIMORE Humbled and
embarrassed one week earlier, the
defending Super Bowl champion
Baltimore Ravens cranked up the
defense to earn another win over
their favorite patsies, the Cleveland
Browns.
Baltimore sacked Brandon
Weeden five times, finally driving
him out of the game with a thumb
injury in the fourth quarter of a 14-6
victory on Sunday.
After yielding 49 points and 510
yards in a lopsided loss at Denver,
Baltimore (1-1) kept Cleveland out
of the end zone. The Ravens came
into the game ranked last in the NFL
in total defense.
You have to have a short mem-
ory, said Terrell Suggs, who had
six tackles and a sack. We played
really good on defense.
The Browns (0-2) didnt score
after halftime and gained only 85
yards over the final 30 minutes.
It was huge, Ravens linebacker
Daryl Smith said. You never want
to out there and play the way we did
in Denver. We just couldnt wait for
the next game to come.
Cleveland has scored only
one touchdown in its first two
games under first-year coach Rob
Chudzinski.
We just have to keep grinding,
Chudzinski said. We have to keep
working at it. The plays are there,
the things are there. Were just off
a little bit.
Down 6-0 at halftime, Baltimore
took the lead on a 5-yard run by
Bernard Pierce with 5:13 left in the
third quarter. The Ravens added a
touchdown with 8:57 remaining on
a 5-yard pass from Joe Flacco to
rookie Marlon Brown.
That was enough support for a
charged-up Ravens defense.
It all added up to the Ravens
11th straight win
over Cleveland,
a st reak t hat
began when John
Harbaugh t ook
over as Baltimores
coach before the
2008 season. Its
the longest active
streak for one
NFL team against
another.
Flacco went 22-for-33 for 211
yards. Just over an hour before
kickoff, his wife gave birth to the
couples second child.
Anytime you have a child, its
one of your best days, Flacco said.
The game didnt go exactly how we
wanted it to but thats how weve
won football games around here.
Sometimes you have to do it in an
ugly way.
In the first half, Flacco was 2-for-
6 for 9 yards on third down.
After halftime, Flacco went
7-for-8 for 87 yards on third down,
getting six first downs in the pro-
cess.
Weeden completed 21-of-33
passes for 227 yards before he hit
his right thumb on a Baltimore hel-
met during the follow-through.
I couldnt grip the ball, so I
knew I had to come out, he said.
It really hurts. But the X-rays were
negative.
He was replaced by Jason
Campbell with 3:34 left and
Cleveland down 14-6. The Browns
quickly turned the ball over on
downs and Baltimore ran out the
clock.
Ravens running back Ray Rice
left early in the fourth quarter with
a strained hip flexor. He was limited
to 36 yards and 13 carries before
limping off the field and into the
locker room.
The afternoon began with the
unveiling of a sign commemorat-
ing the Ravens Super Bowl victory
last season. Once play
began, it took Baltimore
nearly 40 minutes to get
on the scoreboard.
Limited to 122 yards
in the first half, the
Ravens moved 80 yards
in 12 plays on their
opening possession of
the third quarter to take
a 7-6 lead. Before Pierce
scored, Flacco went 3-for-3, com-
pleting all three passes on third
down.
The Browns led at halftime after
Billy Cundiff kicked field goals of
21 and 51 yards and Justin Tucker,
who replaced Cundiff in Baltimore
last season, missed from 50 and 44.
Browns defensive tackle Phil
Taylor shoved Rice in the facemask
after the games second play from
scrimmage, turning a third-and-13
into a first down. But Tucker mis-
fired to end the 12-play drive.
Clevelands first offensive
play was a 53-yard pass to Jordan
Cameron, setting up Cundiff s first
field goal.
The games next eight posses-
sions ended with punts. The trend
turned just before halftime, when a
27-yard completion from Flacco to
Torrey Smith led to another missed
field goal try by Tucker.
Cleveland then moved 33 yards
before Cundiff connected with 11
seconds left.
The second half, however,
belonged to Baltimore. The Browns
made only five first downs after
halftime and finished 4 for 15 on
third downs.
Notes: Ravens DL Chris Canty
sustained a groin injury. Browns
LB Quentin Groves sprained his
ankle. X-rays were negative.
Ravens CB Chykie Brown strained
his knee. DE Paul Kruger, who
left Baltimore to sign as a free agent
with Cleveland during the offsea-
son, had three tackles and no sacks.

Lady Blue Jays running were Megan Joseph, who finished
5th with a time of 20:06, and Anna Mueller 23:06. The St.
Johns boys team finished 10th out of 21 teams and were
lad by Curtis Pohlman with a time of 17:51, good for 20th
place. The rest of the team was Aaron Hellman 19:24, Nick
Pohlman 19:32 (new PR), Anthony Hale 20:01 (new PR),
Evyn Pohlman 21:08 (new PR) and Patrick Stevenson
21:44 (new PR). With the cooler temperatures today, we
ran really well. I challenged the boys to see if we could fin-
ish in the top half of the team scoring and by finishing 10th
out of 21 schools, we met our team goal, St. Johns coach
Steve Hellman noted. It has been fun for the older boys to
also be working as a team to improve instead of just run-
ning for themselves in prior years. I had 4 of the 6 runners
set new PRs and the other 2 just missed. For the girls, I only
had 3 run today but they did very well. Megan Joseph ran
a great race to finish 5th with a time of 20:06, just missing
a new PR, and Lexi Pohlman is starting to come along and
understanding how to race. She took over a minute off her
PR. If everything goes as planned, the girls will have a team
next week to give them something else to excited about. I
felt it was important to run well today because we will be
back on this course in October to run our district race.

DELPHOS Elidas girls soc-
cer crew battled to a 1-0 victory
over St. Johns in non-league action
Saturday afternoon at the St. Johns
Annex.
After a halftime scoreless tie,
Hope Carter netted the only goal
a 10-yarder at 31:19.
Elida had 24 shots on-goal and
goalie Caitlyn Shroyer had one save.
The Lady Blue Jays had four
attempts and Sam Wehri had 17
keeper saves.
We thought we played a more
intense game verse Elida; we knew
they were going to be one of the
tougher teams we play this year
yet. We showed up ready to play
and we held our own the whole
game with them, especially Sam
had an outstanding game today,
Blue Jay coach John Munoz noted.
Our defensive line did an excellent
job staying in front of the ball and
defending the net. We felt that our
girls were more mentally prepared
today to play such a good opponent
as Elida. We had a couple good
opportunities at goal, one in particu-
lar in the first half Mwhen adison
Kreeger had a direct kick that just
went inches over the crossbar.

Tribe tops ChiSox 7-1,
half-game out in wild card
CHICAGO (AP)
Nick Swisher homered
from both sides of the plate
for the 13th time, Asdrubal
Cabrera hit a three-run
homer and the Cleveland
Indians beat the Chicago
White Sox 7-1 Sunday to
pull within a half-game of
Tampa Bay and Texas in
the AL wild-card race.
In a game that started after a
rain delay of 4 hours, 28 minutes,
the Indians achieved a franchise
first by sweeping a four-game
series from the White Sox for the
third time in a season.
Zach McAllister (8-9) allowed
one run and six hits in 6 2-3
innings with five strikeouts and
a walk.
Last-place Chicago has lost
six in a row, and at 58-91 is 33
games under .500 for the first
time since finishing 1976 with
a 64-97 record, according to
STATS.
Chris Sale (11-13) gave up six
runs and nine hits including
three homers in 5 2-3 innings
and dropped to 6-11 following
a 5-2 start. He has an 8.61 ERA
in 23 innings against the Indians
this season.
Matt Carson put Cleveland
ahead in the second with an RBI
single, starting only the second
three-hit game of his major league
career. His solo homer in the fifth
was his first home run since Sept.
26, 2010, for Oakland.
Swisher, batting
right-handed, homered
leading off a four-run
sixth, and Cabreras
home run made it 6-0.
Josh Phegley sin-
gled in a run for the
White Sox in the sev-
enth.
Switching around to the left-
hand side against right-hander
Ramon Trancoso in the ninth,
Swisher hit his 20th home run
of the season. His 13 games with
home runs from both sides tied
former New York Yankees team-
mate Mark Teixeira for the most
in major league history. Swisher
has 20 career multihomer games.
NOTES: The White Sox have
not been 34 games under .500 since
finishing 1970 at 56-106, accord-
ing to STATS. The 12 consecu-
tive losses against Cleveland ties
the White Sox record for most
against one opponent, set against
the Boston Red Sox from Aug.
5, 1921, to May 15, 1922.
Chicago CF Avisail Garcia was
scratched from the starting lineup
to be with his pregnant wife. Leury
Garcia replaced him. The White
Sox offered fans with tickets to
Sundays game a free ticket to an
April 2014 home game excluding
opening day and the series against
Boston (April 15-17). Indians
manager Terry Francona hasnt
been able to determine why reliev-
er Vinnie Pestano has struggled
this season. Pestano has a career-
high 4.19 ERA, allowing 35 hits in
34 1-3 innings.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) Peyton
Manning again beat younger brother Eli, throw-
ing two touchdown passes in leading the Denver
Broncos past the New York Giants 41-23 on
Sunday.
The older Manning is 3-0 in the NFL against
his sibling, with the other two victories coming
when Peyton was with the Colts. He got this win
with a huge boost from Knowshon Moreno, who
rushed for two touchdowns and 93 yards. Denver
(2-0), which has won 13 straight regular-season
games, rushed for 109 yards altogether.
Peyton Manning didnt need to match his
record-tying seven touchdown passes from the
Broncos season-opening victory. Not with the
Giants (0-2) being charitable again with three more
turnovers after they had six in lasts week loss.
They also allowed Trindon Hollidays spectacular
81-yard punt return for a touchdown, the first such
score in the league this season.

PACKERS 38, REDSKINS 20
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) Aaron Rodgers
threw for a career-high 480 yards and four touch-
downs and Green Bay used a big first half to win
its home opener.
Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III threw
for 320 yards and three second-half touchdowns.
Pierre Garcon had 143 yards receiving and a
touchdown.
But it was too little, too late after Washington
(0-2) fell short again after being outplayed early for
a second straight week.
James Jones had a career-high 11 catches for
178 yards. James Starks ran for 132 yards and a
touchdown.
Green Bay (1-1) built a 24-0 lead by halftime
and never looked back.

CHARGERS 33, EAGLES 30
PHILADELPHIA(AP) Philip Rivers threw
three touchdown passes to Eddie Royal, and Nick
Novak kicked a 46-yard field goal with 7 seconds
left, spoiling Chip Kellys home debut.
Michael Vick threw for a career-best 428 yards
and two touchdowns and ran for a score. But a
porous Eagles defense couldnt stop Rivers all day.
He finished 36 of 47 for 419 yards, and the
Chargers punted only once. They fumbled twice
inside Philadelphias 10 in the first half.
The teams combined for 1,150 total yards,
including 539 for San Diego.

BEARS 31, VIKINGS 30
CHICAGO (AP) Jay Cutler threw a
16-yard touchdown pass to Martellus Bennett with
10 seconds left.
Minnesotas Blair Walsh had just kicked a
22-yard field goal with 3:15 remaining when
Chicago took over at its 34. Cutler, who led the
Bears back from an 11-point deficit in a season-
opening win over Cincinnati, struck again.
A 23-yard pass to Bennett along the sideline
put the ball on the 16. Cutler then spiked the ball
before connecting with Bennett in the front corner
of the end zone. Chicago remained unbeaten under
new coach Marc Trestman despite committing
four turnovers.
Cutler completed 28 of 39 passes for 290 yards
and three touchdowns. But he was also intercepted
twice and got stripped by Jared Allen on a sack,
leading to a 61-yard touchdown return for Brian
Robison in the second quarter.

CHIEFS 17, COWBOYS 16
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) Alex Smith
threw for 223 yards and two touchdowns, and the
Kansas City defense held when it needed to in the
fourth quarter.
Jamaal Charles ran for 55 yards and caught a
touchdown pass for the Chiefs, who made new
coach Andy Reid a winner in his home debut. The
Chiefs also matched their victory total from all of
last season by starting 2-0 for just the second time
since 2005.
Dwayne Bowes touchdown catch in the third
quarter and Ryan Succops 40-yard field goal
early in the fourth gave the Chiefs a 17-13 lead.
The Cowboys (1-1) answered with a deep march
into Kansas City territory but had to settle for Dan
Baileys 53-yard field goal with 3:55 left.
The Chiefs offense never gave the Cowboys a
chance to mount a winning drive.
___
TEXANS 30, TITANS 24, OT
HOUSTON (AP) Rookie DeAndre
Hopkins caught a 3-yard touchdown pass in over-
time to cap Houstons comeback win.
With Andre Johnson out after being shaken
up in the fourth quarter, Hopkins reached above
Jason McCourty and pulled in the pass from Matt
Schaub to give Houston the victory.
The Texans (2-0) needed a franchise-record
21-point comeback to win their opener at San
Diego 31-28.
On Sunday, they charged back from an eight-
point, fourth-quarter deficit against the Titans (1-1).
Arian Fosters 1-yard touchdown and 2-point
conversion tied it at 24-24 with less than two
minutes left.
Houston forced a punt and got within field goal
range after that. But Randy Bullocks 46-yard field
goal attempt bounced off the left upright to force
overtime. It was his third miss of the day.
___
BILLS 24, PANTHERS 23
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) Rookie EJ
Manuel hit Stevie Johnson for a 2-yard touchdown
pass with 2 seconds left.
The touchdown capped a nine-play, 80-yard
drive in which the first-round draft pick completed
6 of 8 attempts for 51 yards. Manuel also got help
on third-and-6 from Carolinas 29, when Panthers
linebacker Luke Kuechly was penalized for pass
interference with 14 seconds left.
Two plays later, Manuel found Johnson alone
in the left corner as Buffalo (1-1) bounced back
from a 23-21 season-opening loss to New England.
The Panthers (0-2) lost yet another close game.
They were coming off a 12-7 loss to Seattle last
week and have now dropped to 2-14 in games
decided by 7 points or less in two-plus seasons
under coach Ron Rivera.

DOLPHINS 24, COLTS 20
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Ryan Tannehill
threw for 319 yards and one touchdown, and
the Dolphins defense held off yet another Colts
comeback bid.
Charles Clay gave Miami the lead for good
with a 1-yard TD run late in the third quarter. The
Dolphins are 2-0 for only the second time since
2004.
Indianapolis (1-1) lost at home for the first time
in 12 months and only the second time in Andrew
Lucks brief NFL career.
Luck had the Colts positioned to rally yet again
after reaching the Miami 23-yard line with 1:45
left in the game.
But this time, Luck threw three straight incom-
pletions and then could not evade the Dolphins
pass rush on fourth down, allowing Miami to run
out the clock.
Tannehill finished 23 of 34.
Luck was 25 of 43 for 321 yards with one TD
and one interception.

SAINTS 16, BUCCANEERS 14
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) Garrett Hartley kicked
a 27-yard field goal as time expired to give New
Orleans a weather-delayed victory over Tampa
Bay.
Drew Brees shrugged off throwing an intercep-
tion that was returned to touchdown to give Tampa
Bay the lead to complete three straight passes for
54 yards to lead the Saints (2-0) into position to
win.
He finished 26 of 46 for 322 yards, but was
sacked four times and intercepted twice.
The game was delayed 69 minutes by lightning
in the first quarter.
The Bucs (0-2) lost on a field goal in the
closing seconds for the second straight week.
Linebacker Mason Foster scored on an 85-yard
interception return for a 14-13 lead, however Rian
Lindell missed a 46-yard field goal attempt with
just over a minute later, giving Brees one more
chance to bring the Saints back.
Brees led his team into scoring position with
completions of 15 yards to Jimmy Graham, 8
yards to Darren Sproles and 31 yards to Marques
Colston.

FALCONS 31, RAMS 24
ATLANTA (AP) Julio Jones hauled in
11 passes for 182 yards, including an 81-yard
touchdown, and Atlanta held on for its first win of
the season.
Matt Ryan threw for 374 yards and two scores
despite taking quite a beating behind the Falcons
shaky offense line. Jason Snelling clinched it for
the Falcons (1-1) with an 11-yard touchdown run
with 6:18 remaining Atlantas longest play of
the day on the ground.
The Rams (1-1) fell behind 21-0 when Osi
Umenyiora returned an interception 68 yards for a
touchdown early in the second quarter. Atlanta led
24-3 at halftime before St Louis fought back on a
pair of short touchdown passes by Sam Bradford.
Bradford finished with 352 yards and three
TDs.

Pettersen tops teen Ko to win
Evian Championship
Associated Press
EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France Suzann
Pettersen barely had time to hug her caddie
before the Champagne started flowing in her
direction.
In the first womens major played in
Europe, Pettersen beat teenage star Lydia
Ko of New Zealand by two shots to win the
Evian Championship on Sunday and clinch
the second major title of her career.
The Norwegian calmly rolled in her par
putt to seal the title. Pettersen then leaned
back and held her head in her hands, hugged
her caddie and laughed as she was surround-
ed by friends spraying her with Champagne
on the green.
I might start to get a bit emotional,
Pettersen said, her voice wavering, as she
collected the trophy.
It was her first major since the LPGA
Championship in 2007 and her second
straight tournament win after the Safeway
Classic this month.
Pettersen shot a 3-under 68 to fin-
ish with a 10-under total of 203 after the
tournament was reduced to three rounds
when Thursdays play was rained out. The
16-year-old Ko, who was trying to become
the youngest major champion, finished with
a 70.
American Lexi Thompson shot a 68 to
finish four shots back in third place, with
South Koreans So Yeon Ryu and Se Ri Pak
five shots behind in a tie for fourth.
This was the first year that Evian counted
as the fifth and final major of the year on the
womens calendar.
I dont know if its quite sunk in yet that
Ive won another major. Its been a while,
but Im pretty lucky to say that Ive won
two, Pettersen continued. Hopefully, this
is just the start. Its been such a great month,
five weeks for me, starting off with the
Solheim (Cup). It was a great kick-start for
what became the best month of my career.
The third-ranked Pettersen plans to have
one heck of a party to celebrate, before
focusing on her goal to earn the No. 1 rank-
ing.
This is part of the process, you have to
win tournaments, you have to win majors,
added Pettersen, who in the past has been
hampered by a fiery temperament. I feel
Ive been a lot more relaxed around the golf
course over the past year, smiling a lot more.
Ive come to the age when Im too old to
be around and not be happy.
Top-ranked Inbee Park
was looking to become
the first golfer to win four
majors in a year but finished
way out of contention.
Mika Miyazato of Japan
held a 1-shot lead going into
the final round but struggled
to a 79 and finished tied for
19th.
That left Ko at 16
years, 4 months, 22 days
as Pettersens main chal-
lenger. But she bogeyed the
13th to fall two shots behind
and never looked likely to
make a comeback. Her chip for birdie at
the 18th which would have put some
pressure on Pettersen stopped just left of
the hole.
Ko will have to wait until next year for a
chance to break American Morgan Pressels
record of youngest major winner. Pressel
was 18 years, 10 months, 9 days when she
won the Kraft Nabisco Championship in
2007.
I dont think I felt that nervous today but
coming down the last two holes I thought
Suzann had it in the bag, Ko said. It was
really good to know that I could come close
to a winner at a major. Hopefully, next year
it will be a 72-hole event.
An overnight downpour rendered the
course soggy and led to a 90-minute delay
in the morning.
When play got started, Ko opened her
round with a birdie while Pettersen had bird-
ies on the second and third holes. Pettersen
bogeyed the seventh when she over-hit her
approach shot.
She recovered with a birdie on the next
hole and led Ko by one shot and Ryu by two
after the front nine.
Ko looked stern-faced after missing
a chance to move level on the 12th and
Pettersen shook her head in disbelief as her
second shot on 13th drifted wide into the
choppy rough. But she ended up
saving a tricky par while Ko had
to settle for bogey, leaving her
two shots ahead.
Ko looked downbeat when
she missed another birdie chance
on 17.
I didnt feel confident with
my putting today. I left a couple
short, Ko added. I misread
some putts. I wont blame the
greens that were bumpy and blah,
blah, blah. I dont blame others.
Stacy Lewis won last months
British Open but after a solid
start the American finished six
shots behind Pettersen in a tie for sixth along
with American Angela Stanford and South
Koreas Chella Choi.
Rain keeps leaders away at BMW
Championship
LAKE FOREST, Ill. Jim Furyk will
have to wait one more day to try to end three
years without a victory on the PGA Tour.
The final round of the BMW
Championship was suspended Sunday
because of rain that left too much water on
Conway Farms. Furyk had a 1-shot lead
over Steve Stricker. He was about three
hours from even teeing off when play was
stopped for the first time by rain for 3 1/2
hours. It resumed for an hour before more
showers led to another stoppage in play.
Furyk was among 22 players who had
yet to tee off. That included Tiger Woods,
who was four shots behind.
Jefferson, who ended up seventh,
was paced by Carter Mox and Ryan
Bullinger with 89s.
Spencerville, in eighth, was topped
by the 90 of Mitchell Youngpeter.
Fort Jennings, in ninth, received a
97 from Sam Vetter.

Lady Beavers finish Gator
Invitational 4-0
By Brittany Roth
Sports information assistant
MEADVILLE, Penn. - The
Beavers began their second day of
the Gator Invitational against the host
team, a solid Allegheny College squad.
After starting off well and building
a 22-17 lead, the first set went to
Allegheny 25-23 thanks to an 8-1 run
at the end of the game.
From that moment on, Bluffton
took control of the match, defeating
Allegheny in the next three sets, 25-17,
25-21, and 25-13. Attacking at the net
were Adrienne Shepard (Arlington),
Kendra Parmenter (Grove City, and
Jenny Brown (St. Marys/Memorial)
who had 15, 10, and 10 kills, respec-
tively. Brooke Ruffer (Stryker) handed
out 41 assists for the Beavers and
MacKenzie McFarlin (Ashland)
earned five aces from the service
line. Defensively, Lindsay Krohn
(Marysville, Ind./New Washington)
led with 17 digs and Lauren Weisgarber
(Bolivar/Tuscarawas Valley) followed
with 13. Parmenter and Brown con-
trolled the net with three and two solo
blocks, respectively.
Immediately following their win
against Allegheny, the Beavers defeated
Albion College in three quick sets (25-
22, 25-19, and 25-18). Leading the
offense was Ruffer with 32 assists and
Parmenter with 14 kills. Ruffer also
fired five aces from the service line and
she led the defense with 15 digs. Krohn
followed with 14 digs, while Marissa
Krier (Massillon/Central Christian) and
Hailey Phillips (Malinta/Patrick Henry)
each tallied nine.
After going 4-0 on the weekend,
the Beavers were named the Gator
Invitational Tournament Champions.
Shepard was selected to the All-
Tournament Team after her superb
play at the net. Bluffton is now 6-6
on the season. The Beavers will be off
until next weekend when they travel
to Columbus for the annual OAC/
HCAC Challenge on the campus of
Capital University. Bluffton opens

B-W erupts for rout of BU gridders
By Evan Skilliter
BLUFFTON The Beavers wel-
comed the Baldwin-Wallace Yellow Jackets
to Salzman Stadium on Saturday, trying to
rebound from last weeks opening night loss
at Ohio Wesleyan. The Beavers were able
to control the first quarter as they took a
14-10 lead into the second frame but the 23rd-
ranked Yellow Jackets proved too tough for the
Beavers as they outscored the hosts 42-7 the
rest of the game to take a 52-21 victory back
to Berea.
The Beavers fell into early trouble after
B-Ws Joe Kasper picked up a backward pass
and took it in for six just under four minutes
into the game. However, junior quarterback
Nick Sheehan (Monroeville, Ind./Heritage)
found Shawn Frost (Edison/ Mt. Gilead)
through the air for a 15-yard touchdown on the
ensuing drive, tying the score, 7-7, at the 7:26
mark in the first quarter. The touchdown was
Frosts third of the young season.
On the ensuing kickoff, Austin Sweeneys
(Adrian, Mi./Whitmer) pooch was mishan-
dled and fumbled by the Yellow Jackets and
Bluffton sophomore Jake Michaels (Rupublic/
Seneca East) recovered. That set up a touch-
down pass from Sheehan to Donovan Brown
(Cincinnati/Purcell Marian) on the first play
of the next drive, putting the Beavers up 14-7
at the 7:14 mark. Baldwin Wallace kicker
Chris Mohler would tally the final score of
the period from 24 yards out to bring the
Yellow Jackets within four, 14-10, to end the
first quarter.
The visitors put up 14 points in each of the
next three quarters while Bluffton was only
able to cross the goal line once more after
the second Sheehan to Brown touchdown
completion of the day.
Sheehan completed 24-of-43 passes for
277 yards and three touchdowns on the day.
Frost finished with a very impressive 110
yards receiving and a touchdown on seven
receptions. Brown also caught seven passes
for 79 yards and a TD, while Eric Fox
(Brunswick) and Devante Thomas-Wright
(Kings Clint.Twp., Mich./Chippewa Valley)
each caught three passes for 33 and 25 yards,
respectively.
Fox carried the ball 12 times for 47 yards
while senior C.J. Sewell (Lima/Shawnee)
tallied 13 runs for 31 yards. Calib Alexander
(Ocala, Fla./St. John Lutheran) carried it
seven times for 20 yards.
As a team, Bluffton tallied 385 yards of
total offense, including 108 on the ground and
277 through the air. Baldwin-Wallace racked
up 527 yards of offense.
Defensively for the Beavers, Josh Runda
(Lima/Bath) led the home team with eight
tackles, including one tackle-for-loss. Ben
Schamp (St. Marys/Memorial), Travaun
Reaves (Berkley, Mich./Berkley), Craig Miller
(Plymouth) and Josh Hadley (Harper Woods,
Mich./Harper Woods) finished with five tack-
les each. Sophomore Matt Holden (Convoy/
Crestview) chipped in with two tackles and an
interception.
The loss dropped the Beavers to 0-2 on
the season, while the game marked the 2013
opener for Baldwin-Wallace. Next week
the Beavers will host the Earlham College
Quakers in their Heartland Collegiate Athletic
Conference season opener. That game is slated
for 1:30 in Salzman Stadium.
BU women fall to 10th-ranked Panthers

By Ryan Schadewald
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - The Bluffton
Beaver womens soccer team traveled to Grand
Rapids, Mich. to take on Davenport University
,which is ranked 10th in the country in the
most recent NAIA poll. The Panthers improved
to 6-1 as they defeated the Beavers 5-0 on
Saturday, behind two goals from Letesha
Cannonier. The Beavers dropped to 2-2 on the
season following the defeat.
Despite a scoreless first half the home team
was able to dominate the play, outshooting the
Beavers (18-2). The scoring took off early in
the second half for Davenport, however, as
Cannonier was able to tack on two goals in
the first seven minutes. Lizzie Paul added the
Panthers third score of the game after she
picked up a loose ball in the box to make it
3-0 at the 56-minute mark of the game. The
Panthers put it on ice with two more goals from
Danielle Beery and Laken Duchar-Clark as the
home team completed the 5-0 rout.
The Beavers will return home to the Sears
Complex on Wednesday when they take on the
Waynesburg Yellow Jackets. The men kick off
the doubleheader at 2 p.m, with the women
following shortly after 4 p.m.

Tigers shut out Beaver mens soccer
By Kyle Stover
SPRINGFIELD The Bluffton
University mens soccer team took to the road
again on Saturday, Sept. 14, this time taking
on the Tigers of Wittenberg University. The
Beavers were unable to keep the home team
off of the board early, eventually allowing two
goals in each half as Bluffton fell 4-0.
Five minutes into the first half, the Tigers
opened up the scoring when Mitch Rudibaugh
netted a goal to give Wittenberg a 1-0 lead.
Later, Grant Hinkebein scored again for the
Tigers, assisted by Kevin Bond. Bluffton went
into the half trailing 2-0.
It did not take long for Wittenberg to
extend its lead in the second half when Zack
Moore headed a ball into the top right corner
of the net with an assist by Reed Glosser.
The final goal of the match came in the 62nd
minute when Kevin Bond chipped a ball over
the defense into the back of the net to give the
Tigers a 4-0 advantage, a lead they made stand
up for the remainder of the match.
Wittenberg outshot the Beavers in the
match 19-11, with 10 of those shots coming
on frame. Ben Knotts (Carrollton), T.J. Kline
(Mogadore/Lake Center Christian) and Grant
Stutzman (Sugarcreek/Hiland) all recorded two
shots for Bluffton.
Bluffton fell to 0-4 on the year while
Wittenberg improved to 3-4. The Beavers will
be back in action on Wednesday when they
host Waynesburg. That match is slated to begin
at 2 p.m.

Summers withdraws name
from Fed consideration
MARTIN CRUTSINGER
Associated Press
WASHINGTON Lawrence Summers,
who was considered the leading candidate to
succeed Ben Bernanke as Federal Reserve
chairman, has withdrawn from consideration,
the White House said Sunday.
Summers withdrawal followed growing
resistance from critics, including some mem-
bers of the Senate committee that would need
to back his nomination. His exit could open
the door for his chief rival, Janet Yellen, the
Feds vice chair. If chosen by President Barack
Obama and confirmed by the Senate, Yellen
would become the first woman to lead the Fed.
In the past, Obama has mentioned only one
other candidate as possibly being under consid-
eration: Donald Kohn, a former Fed vice chair.
But Kohn, 70, has been considered a long shot.
The administration also reached out to
former Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner
early in the process. Geithner said he was not
interested in being considered.
Obama is expected to announce a nomi-
nee for the Fed chairmanship as early as this
month. Bernankes term ends Jan. 31, 2014.
Some economists said Sunday that they
think Summers exit significantly boosts the
likelihood of a Yellen nomination.
The odds that the president will nominate
Janet Yellen are now much higher, said Mark
Zandi, chief economist at Moodys Analytics.
Still, Zandi added, There is a chance that there is
some dark horse candidate, possibly Tim Geithner.
David Jones, chief economist at DMJ Advisors
and the author of several books on the Fed, said
he saw Yellens selection as a virtual certainty.
There is a strong view that making a
woman Fed chair is an important step, Jones
said. There is no question that her experi-
ence qualifies her for the role.
Summers and his allies had been engaged in
an unusually public contest with Yellen support-
ers, with each side lobbying the administration.
An openly waged succession battle is
something that the Fed, which will turn 100 in
December, has never before witnessed. The selec-
tion of a chairman has long been a matter handled
privately by a president and his senior advisers.
In a statement Sunday, Obama said he had
accepted Summers decision.
Larry was a critical member of my team
as we faced down the worst economic crisis
since the Great Depression, and it was in no
small part because of his expertise, wisdom
and leadership that we wrestled the economy
back to growth and made the kind of progress
we are seeing today, Obama said.
As director of the National Economic
Council, Summers oversaw the administra-
tions response to the economic and financial
crisis early in Obamas first term.
Yet Summers faced strenuous opposition from
some Democrats, including some on the Senate
Banking Committee. Summers alluded to that
opposition in a letter he sent Sunday to Obama to
formally withdraw from consideration.
I have reluctantly concluded that any pos-
sible confirmation process for me would be
acrimonious and would not serve the interests
of the Federal Reserve, the administration or
ultimately, the interests of the nations ongo-
ing economic recovery, Summers wrote.
Alabama church marks 50th anniversary of bombing
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.
(AP) Hundreds of people
black and white, many hold-
ing hands, filled an Alabama
church that was bombed by
the Ku Klux Klan 50 years
ago Sunday to mark the
anniversary of the blast that
killed four little girls and
became a landmark moment
in the civil rights struggle.
The Rev. Arthur Price
taught the same Sunday
school lesson that mem-
bers of 16th Street Baptist
Church heard the morning
of the bombing A Love
That Forgives. Then, the
rusty old church bell was
tolled four times as the girls
names were read.
Bombing survivor Sarah
Collins Rudolph, who lost
her right eye and sister Addie
Mae Collins in the blast,
stood by as members laid a
wreath at the spot where the
dynamite device was placed
along an outside wall.
Rudolph was 12 at the
time, and her family left
the church after the bomb-
ing. She said it was impor-
tant to return in memory of
her sister, who was 14, and
the three other girls who
died: Carole Robertson and
Cynthia Wesley Morris, both
14, and Denise McNair, 11.
God spared me to live
and tell just what happened
on that day, said Rudolph,
who testified against the
Klansmen convicted years
later in the bombing.
Congregation members
and visitors sang the old
hymn Love Lifted Me and
joined hands in prayer. The
somber Sunday school lesson
was followed by a raucous,
packed worship service with
gospel music and believers
waving their hands.
During the sermon, the
Rev. Julius Scruggs of
Huntsville, president of the
National Baptist Convention
USA, said, God said you
may murder four little girls,
but you wont murder the
dream of justice and liberty
for all.
Later Sunday, attend-
ees of an afternoon com-
memoration included
Attorney General Eric
Holder, Alabama Gov.
Robert Bentley, former
U.N. Ambassador Andrew
Young, Jesse Jackson, Rev.
Joseph Lowery and direc-
tor Spike Lee, who made
a documentary about the
bombing.
The church was full, with
the only surviving mother
of one of the girls, Maxine
McNair, sitting in the front
row.
Holder called the girls
deaths a seminal and tragic
moment in U.S. history and
recalled gains that followed
their killings like the Civil
Rights Act and the Voting
Rights Act.
Alluding to the Supreme
Court decision this year
that struck down a key part
of the voting law, Holder
said the struggle continues
decades later.
This a fight that we will
continue, Holder said.
The dynamite bomb went
off outside the church Sept.
15, 1963. Of the Klansmen
convicted years later, one
remains imprisoned. Two
others died in prison.
Two young men, both
black, were shot to death
in Birmingham in the chaos
that followed the bombing.
Birmingham was strictly
segregated at the time of the
bombing, which occurred
as city schools were being
racially integrated for the
first time. The all-black 16th
Street Baptist was a gath-
ering spot for civil rights
demonstrations for months
before the blast.
The bombing became
a powerful symbol of the
depth of racial hatred in
the South and helped build
momentum for later laws,
including the 1964 Civil
Rights Act and the Voting
Rights Act of 1965.

Answer to Puzzle
Using up leftover hot dogs
Hot dogs are versatile
leftovers. Theyre easily frozen
and reheated later. Cut some
in half, roll them in crescent
dough and add some cheese for
pigs in a blanket. They can be
added to macaroni and cheese
or chili, too.
The first reader shares a
couple of other ideas:
Leftover hot dogs: I had a
bunch of leftover hot dogs
recently, so I chopped some
up and made hot dog sloppy
joes (I used my usual recipe
for the sloppy joe sauce).
I also ground some up and
added a diced egg and mayo
to make ham salad for
lunches. -- Denise, Illinois
Potato biscuits: Use a cup
of fresh or leftover mashed
potatoes in your next batch of
biscuits or buns, and theyll
be fluffy and delicious. Even
refrigerated for a few days
now, my biscuits have not
turned into hockey pucks. --
I.C., email
Note from Sara: While the
mashed potatoes can simply
be added to most any biscuit
recipe, heres a recipe in
case you dont have one:
allrecipes.com/recipe/tender-
potato-biscuits.
Facebook swap groups:
Ive been selling on our local
Facebook garage sale/buy/
sell/swap sites. Once you find
one and join it, more local
groups you can join will show
up on the right-hand side of
the page. Im now in about
10 groups. Ive been doing
this for about six weeks, and
Ive sold quite a bit. Take
pictures and give an accurate
description, just as you would
if you were listing on eBay.
Make the meeting public
and close enough to home or
work to not waste gas. Read
the rules well before listing.

Homemade Jewelry
Cleaner: This stuff works
great!
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 tablespoon dishwashing
liquid
1 cup water
Heat water in the microwave
for 1 or 2 minutes. Place a
piece of aluminum foil in the
bottom of a small bowl. Pour
hot water into bowl. Place
salt, soda and dishwashing
liquid into bowl. Place
jewelry in and let it sit for 5 to
10 minutes. Rinse jewelry in
cool water and dry completely
with soft cloth. Discard
solution after use and
make a new batch next
time.
I kept the old basket
from my store-bought
jewelry cleaner, and
I use that to get the
jewelry in and out of
the bowl or mug. I also
use the old brush to
get into the crevices. If
you dont have these,
use an old toothbrush
and pour the water/
jewelry through a
small strainer. You
dont want to lose
that jewelry down
the drain! -- Jonesie,
Pennsylvania
Note from Sara:
Please proceed with
caution. While many
readers have shared
they got terrific
results, some have
said it made their
silver pieces worse.
Also, do not use on
any opal jewelry.

Trivia
Answers to Saturdays questions:
The term Baltimore chop, which came in vogue in
1890, refers to a batted ball that bounces so high it cannot
be fielded successfully before the batter reaches first base.
It is said to have been named for two Baltimore players
John McGraw and Willie Wee Willie Keeler who
often made it to first base this way.
The first pro football player was William Pudge
Heffelfinger, who made his professional debut for the
Allegheny Athletic Association on Nov. 12, 1892. He
was paid $500 for his performance against the Pittsburgh
Athletic Club, in which he led his team to victory, 4-0.

Floods transform Colorados
Gore-Tex Vortex
JERI CLAUSING
Associated Press
LYONS, Colo. The
cars that normally clog Main
Street in Lyons on the way
to Rocky Mountain National
Park have been replaced by
military supply trucks. Shop
owners in Estes Park hurried-
ly cleared their wares in fear
that the Big Thompson River
will rise again. A plywood
sign encouraged residents
mucking out their homes to
Hang in there.
Days of rain and floods
have transformed the out-
doorsy mountain commu-
nities in Colorados Rocky
Mountain foothills affection-
ately known as the Gore-Tex
Vortex from a paradise into a
disaster area with little in the
way of supplies or services
and more rain falling Sunday.
The string of communi-
ties from Boulder to Estes
Park, the gateway to Rocky
Mountain National Park, is
a base for backpackers and
nature lovers where blue-col-
lar and yuppie sensibilities
exist side by side. Now, road-
ways have crumbled, scenic
bridges are destroyed, the site
of the bluegrass festival is
washed out and most shops
are closed.
Chris Rodes, one of Lyons
newest residents, said the
change is so drastic that he is
considering moving away just
two weeks after settling there.
Its not the same, Rodes
said. All these beautiful
places, its just brown mud.
Estes Park town adminis-
trator Frank Lancaster said
visitors who would normally
flock there during the golden
September days should stay
away for at least a month, but
it could take a year or longer
for many of the mountain
roadways to be repaired.
Meanwhile, people were
still trapped, the nearby ham-
let of Glen Haven has been
destroyed and the continu-
ing rain threatened a new
round of flooding, he said.
We are all crossing our
fingers and praying he said.
The residents who
remained or began trick-
ling back if they were
allowed to do so were left
to watch out for one another.
Restaurateurs and grocers in
Lyons were distributing food
to their neighbors as others
arrived in groups carrying
supplies.
Obama: Budget tightening could widen income gap
WASHINGTON (AP) On the fifth anniversary of the
Lehman Brothers collapse, President Barack Obama says the
Republican focus on budget tightening could widen income
disparities in the nation even as the economy climbs out of a
debilitating recession.
Trying to lay claim to an economic turnaround, Obama
acknowledged that despite progress, middle- and low-
income Americans have not benefited as much as the top 1
percent in the country.
We came in, stabilized the situation, he told ABCs
This Week in an interview broadcast Sunday. He cited
42 months in a row of growth, 7 million jobs created and a
revitalized auto industry.
The banking system works. It is giving loans to com-
panies who can get credit. And so we have seen, I think
undoubtedly, progress across the board, he said. Obama
will kick off a series of economy-related events with a Rose
Garden speech Monday. His National Economic Council
released a report Sunday detailing the economic advances.
For Obama, the Lehman anniversary is an opportunity,
after weeks devoted to the Syrian crisis, to confront public
skepticism about his stewardship of the economy and to put
down his marker for budget clashes with Congress in the
weeks ahead. Lehmans was the largest bankruptcy in U.S.
history, and its demise marked the beginning of the global
financial crisis and was a major catalyst of the financial
meltdown.
Obama emphasized that when it comes to a crucial dead-
line to raise the nations borrowing limit next month, he
would not negotiate with Republicans. They want to use the
debt ceiling as leverage to cut spending further and to delay
Obamas signature health care law.
Sundays National Economic Council report is a cata-
log of Obama administration and Federal Reserve actions
that the councils director, Obama economic adviser Gene
Sperling, said have performed better than virtually any-
one at the time predicted. They range from the unpopular
Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP, that shored up the
financial industry and bailed out auto giants General Motors
and Chrysler, to an $800 billion stimulus bill to sweeping
new bank regulations.
Obama can point to a growing economy, rising housing
prices, 35 straight months of hiring and a rebounding stock
market. The financial sector has also recovered and banks are
better capitalized. Five years after the federal government
stepped in and infused banks with $245 billion in taxpayer
money to avert a financial meltdown, the government has
been paid back nearly in full.
Syrian official: Chemical
weapons deal a victory
RYAN LUCAS
Associated Press
BEIRUT A high-ranking Syrian official called the U.S.-
Russian agreement on securing Syrias chemical weapons a
victory for President Bashar Assads regime, but the U.S.
warned Sunday the threat of force is real if Damascus fails
to carry out the plan.
The comments by Syrian Minister of National Reconciliation
Ali Haidar to a Russian state news agency were the first by a
senior Syrian government official on the deal struck a day
earlier in Geneva. Under the agreement, Syria will provide an
inventory of its chemical arsenal within one week and hand
over all of the components of its program by mid-2014.
We welcome these agreements, Haidar was quoted as say-
ing by the RIA Novosti agency. On the one hand, they will
help Syrians get out of the crisis, and on the other hand, they
averted a war against Syria by removing the pretext for those
who wanted to unleash one.
He added: These agreements are a credit to Russian diplo-
macy and the Russian leadership. This is a victory for Syria,
achieved thanks to our Russian friends.
There has been no official statement from the Syrian gov-
ernment, and it was not clear whether Haidars comments
reflected Assads thinking.
The deal, hashed out in marathon negotiations between
U.S. and Russian diplomats, averts American missile strikes
against the Assad regime, although the Obama administration
has warned that the military option remains on the table if
Damascus does not comply. President Barack Obama said last
week the U.S. Navy will maintain its increased presence in the
eastern Mediterranean Sea to keep pressure on Syria and to be
in position to respond if diplomacy fails.
The threat of force is real, and the Assad regime and all
those taking part need to understand that President Obama and
the United States are committed to achieve this goal, U.S.
Secretary of State John Kerry said Sunday in Jerusalem, where
he briefed Israeli leaders on the agreement.
He also said the agreement, if successful, will have set a
marker for the standard of behavior with respect to Iran and
with respect North Korea and any rogue state, (or) group that
tries to reach for these kind of weapons.
Many US bridges old, risky and rundown
MIKE BAKER
Associated Press
WASHINGTON Motorists com-
ing off the Frederick Douglass Memorial
Bridge into Washington are treated to
a postcard-perfect view of the U.S.
Capitol. The bridge itself, however, is
about as ugly as it gets: The steel under-
pinnings have thinned since the structure
was built in 1950, and the span is pocked
with rust and crumbling concrete.
District of Columbia officials were so
worried about a catastrophic failure that
they shored up the horizontal beams to
prevent the bridge from falling into the
Anacostia River.
And safety concerns about the
Douglass bridge, which is used by more
than 70,000 vehicles daily, are far from
unique.
An Associated Press analysis of
607,380 bridges in the most recent fed-
eral National Bridge Inventory showed
that 65,605 were classified as structur-
ally deficient and 20,808 as fracture
critical. Of those, 7,795 were both a
combination of red flags that experts say
indicate significant disrepair and similar
risk of collapse.
A bridge is deemed fracture critical
when it doesnt have redundant pro-
tections and is at risk of collapse if a
single, vital component fails. A bridge is
structurally deficient when it is in need
of rehabilitation or replacement because
at least one major component of the
span has advanced deterioration or other
problems that lead inspectors to deem its
condition poor or worse.
Engineers say the bridges are safe.
And despite the ominous sounding clas-
sifications, officials say that even bridg-
es that are structurally deficient or frac-
ture critical are not about to collapse.
The AP zeroed in on the Douglass
bridge and others that fit both criteria
structurally deficient and fracture
critical. Together, they carry more than
29 million drivers a day, and many were
built more than 60 years ago. Those
bridges are located in all 50 states,
plus Puerto Rico and the District of
Columbia, and include the Brooklyn
Bridge in New York, a bridge on the
New Jersey highway that leads to the
Lincoln Tunnel, and the Main Avenue
Bridge in Cleveland.
The number of bridges nationwide
that are both structurally deficient and
fracture critical has been fairly constant
for a number of years, experts say. But
both lists fluctuate frequently, especially
at the state level, since repairs can move
a bridge out of the deficient categories
while spans that grow more dilapidated
can be put on the lists. There are occa-
sional data-entry errors. There also is
considerable lag time between when
state transportation officials report data
to the federal government and when
updates are made to the National Bridge
Inventory.
Many fracture critical bridges were
erected in the 1950s to 1970s during
construction of the interstate highway
system because they were relatively
cheap and easy to build. Now they have
exceeded their designed life expectancy
but are still carrying traffic often more
cars and trucks than they were originally
expected to handle. The Interstate 5
bridge in Washington state that col-
lapsed in May was fracture critical.
Cities and states would like to replace
the aging and vulnerable bridges, but
few have the money; nationally, it is a
multibillion-dollar problem. As a result,
highway engineers are juggling repairs
and retrofits in an effort to stay ahead of
the deterioration.
There are thousands of inspectors
across the country in the field every day
to determine the safety of the nations
bridges, Victor Mendez, head of the
Federal Highway Administration, said in
a statement. If a bridge is found to be
unsafe, immediate action is taken.
At the same time, all that is required
to cause a fracture critical bridge to
collapse is a single unanticipated event
that damages a critical portion of the
structure.
Its kind of like trying to predict
where an earthquake is going to hit or
where a tornado is going to touch down,
said Kelley Rehm, bridges program
manager for the American Association
of State Highway and Transportation
Officials.
Signs of age are clear. The Douglass
bridge, also known as the South Capitol
Street Bridge, was designed to last 50
years. Its now 13 years past that. The
districts transportation department has
inserted so-called catcher beams under-
neath the bridges main horizontal beams
to keep the bridge from falling into the
river, should a main component fail.
Alesia Tisdall, who drove over the
bridge every day for 15 years but now
crosses it only occasionally, said she
found its bounce unnerving.
Youd look at the person sitting next
to you like, Did you feel that bounce?
And theyd be looking back at you like
they were thinking the same thing, said
Tisdall, a computer systems specialist at
the Justice Department.
Peter Vanderzee, CEO of Lifespan
Technologies of Alpharetta, Ga., which
uses special sensors to monitor bridges
for stress, said steel fatigue is a problem
in the older bridges.
Bridges arent built to last forever,
he said. He compared steel bridges to a
paper clip thats opened and bent back
and forth until it breaks.

The day will begin with breakfast and fellowship at 8
a.m. Sept. 28 at the church before workers are dispatched
to their jobs. Volunteers will meet back at the church at
noon for lunch and then return to their work sites until 4
p.m.
A celebration lunch will be held at noon on Sept. 29 at
the church and will include sandwiches, a variety of hearty
salads and dessert. Volunteers, homeowners and anyone
who wants to join will share the meal. A free-will offering
will be taken.
This year, the couple is headed to Sunflower, Miss., to
help start a new mission from the ground up with Delta
Grace United Methodist Church. They need approximately
$2,500 a month to keep their mission going. The money is
spent on gas, building and repair materials and food. Their
lodging is usually provided.
What the couple gets in return is immeasurable.
You think you are going on a mission trip to help oth-
ers, Ellen said. You do that but in return, you are filled
with so many blessing. You cant out-give God.
Ellen said there are other ways to help.
We also need people to pray for us and give us encour-
agement, she said. That is important, too.
Who the Dittos help is unlimited.
We assist the widows, widowers, orphans, the elderly,
the poor and the rich, Ellen added. We live simply so
that others may simply live.
After acquiring her full-
time position at the Thrift
Shop, she was allowed to
continue with her morning
route. Haggard drives a big
snub-nose bus with a white
top each school morning
to the southwest corner of
Delphos to pick up 30-40
kids.
They are good kids and
most parents are real cor-
dial, Haggard said.
When Haggard went
for her commercial drivers
license [CDL] in 1995, she
had to go through four dif-
ferent written tests: driving,
air brake, passenger/chauf-
feur and school bus. The
road-time test involved par-
allel parking, regular driv-
ing, railroad track protocols,
drop-offs and pick-ups and
emergency training.
We had eight hours of
training on things like using
an epi-pen and diabetics,
she stated.
She also had to memorize
88 or more parts to a bus
including the motor, suspen-
sion and tires.
We have to know if
something looks or sounds
wrong with the vehicle,
Haggard stated. Before
pulling out of the garage, we
inspect the buses each day.
School bus drivers must
be re-certified every six years
and go through the same pro-
cess each time. During re-
certification, an On-Board
Instructor (OBI), a bus driv-
er that goes through extra in-
service, would be employed
to help drivers prepare for
the testing. The testing takes
place onsite [bus garage] and
the driving part of the testing
is done in town with their
own buses.
They [OBI] are very
encouraging, Haggard said.
When it comes to weath-
er-related incidents, Haggard
said she remembers misjudg-
ing backing up and getting
stuck in a lot of snow in a
small ditch. She used a two-
way radio to speak directly
with the superintendent and
Rodoc.
I entertained the kids
while we waited for assis-
tance, Haggard said. The
kids stayed on the bus while
the Rodoc mechanics used a
winch to pull us out of the
ditch.
Haggard said bus drivers
help each other in emergencies.
One may break down
and a driver will go pick
up the kids and get them to
school or home, she stated.
She said that bus driv-
ers are not permitted to use
mobile phones on school
buses but carry one just in
case of an emergency.
There may be a late-
night ball game out of town
and the bus doesnt start,
she explained. The two-
way radio wont work and I
can use the mobile to call for
assistance.
Haggard said being a
school bus driver has been
a social and cultural experi-
ence for her.
Ive heard little sob sto-
ries about farm animals, she
said. Some of the younger
kids wanted me to play rap
and hard rock music.
Suever is looking forward to her
duties.
I am so excited to be a part of
Canal Days, Suever said Sunday
evening. I cant wait for the Toast
and other events.
The daughter of Matt and Terri
Suever entered the pageant for sev-
eral reasons.
I wanted to earn a scholarship,
get over my stage fright and meet
new people. I accomplished all
those things, she said proudly.
Suever is a member of the varsity
cheerleading squad for both football
and basketball and Fellowship of
Christian Athletes and volunteers
with many of the youth ministry
programs at her church. She also
serves as a volunteer cheer coach for
the Upward Basketball Program and
gives her time at Our Daily Bread
Soup Kitchen, Angels for Animals
and the Delphos Community
Christmas Project. Suever is also
involved in dance at the Dancer by
Gina and tumbling at Gym Stars.
Other winners included first run-
ner-up St. Johns senior Kaitlyn
Slate; second runner-up, Best Essay
winner and Miss Congeniality
Jefferson junior Kaitlyn Berelsman;
and third runner-up and Peoples
Choice winner St. Johns junior
Olivia Miller. Jefferson sophomore
Tatiana Olmeda was the top ticket
seller.
