DELPHOS — Children
swarmed the new playground
system at Waterworks Park
Wednesday following its dedi-
cation by the Delphos Kiwanis
Club.
Kiwanis President Dennis
Kapcar addressed the crowd of
youngsters, parents and volun-
teers just before the first storm
moved through Delphos.
“We continue to focus on
the children and the commu-
nity,” Kapcar began. “This is the
second playground project, the
first being completed in 2008 at
Stadium Park. What I think is the
neatest thing about these projects
is that the community enjoys
our Fourth of July celebration
and the money they spend there
is used to fund our projects.
Everyone who participates in the
the Dienstberger Foundation
grant, along with local fraternal
organizations and individuals.
Kiwanis President Dennis Kapcar speaks of the group’s focus on children and community
during the dedication. The Rev. Jacob Gordon, back left, Dienstberger Foundation member

have such nice parks,” Miller
said. “So not only do we impact
our children here, we also impact
children outside of Delphos.”
The first project was funded
in large part by donations from
local and area businesses. The
Kiwanis chose a different route
for the second project.
“We avoided going to
the businesses for this proj-
ect because of the economy,”
Kapcar said. “They helped us
out tremendously with the new
playground at Stadium Park and
we didn’t want to burden them
with another project so soon.
Everything still came together
and it’s a testament to the com-
mitment everyone has to our
children and community.”
Mayor Mike Gallmeier also
helped dedicate the new play-
ground.
“Once again we have come
together to better our commu-
nity,” Gallmeier began. “and in
tough economic times. It seems
there is nothing we can’t do if
we do it together.”

Contractors earn lead-based paint certification
Training Services International President Wayne Ingram teaches a recertification
course Wednesday at the Microtel Inn and Suites. The United States Environmental
Protection Agency has mandated all who work with lead-based paint to be certified in
precautionary measures concerning the toxic substance. Ingram said the fine for violat-
ing EPA codes will be $37,500 for civil and another $37,500 for criminal per violation.
New regulations went into effect in April. The certification course was sponsored by the
Delphos Area Chamber of Commerce.

Most school
issues pass, some
budget cuts likely
TOLEDO (AP) — Ohio
voters approved more than
half of the school tax issues
that were on the ballot in
Tuesday’s election.
Unofficial results show
that 97 out of 181 school
issues passed, accord-
ing to data compiled by
the Buckeye Association
of School Administrators.
That’s a passage rate of 54
percent.
But at least one major
school district is facing deep
cuts. Toledo voters reject-
ed an income tax increase,
meaning that school crossing
guards are likely to be laid
off, bus service reduced and
some after-school programs
ended.
Another school tax issue
voted down Tuesday would
have provided millions for
the growing Lakota district
in the Cincinnati area.
Voters in the Columbus
suburb of Reynoldsburg
finally said yes to a school
levy after three rejections.
But officials say budget

essary.

primary for clues to fall
COLUMBUS (AP) —
Democrat Ted Strickland
and Republican John Kasich,
unopposed in the primary,
nevertheless are looking at
their performances with pri-
mary voters in this pivotal
swing state for clues to who
will take the helm as governor
in November.
This much is known:
Almost 736,000 Republicans
cast their votes for Kasich,
compared to about 621,000
Democrats who voted for
Strickland. Does that mean
Kasich, a former congress-
man, investment banker and
conservative commentator,
will beat Strickland, the sit-
ting governor, in the fall?
Maybe, maybe not, politi-
cal observers say.
“For sure, Democrats should
pay attention,” said Susan
Marilley, associate political
science professor at Capital
University. “Once again,
Republicans are ready to vote
— no matter what the weather
they’ll be active and present.”
With tea party momentum
intensifying debate in two
competitive GOP primaries —
for state auditor and secretary
of state — final, unofficial
totals show more votes cast for
Republicans than Democrats

U.S. Senate, the Democrats’

Dear EarthTalk: Given the huge oil spill in the
Gulf of Mexico last month, isn’t it high time the gov-
ernment put a stop to offshore oil drilling once and
for all? Short of banning it altogether, what can be
done to prevent explosions, leaks and spills moving
forward?
— P. Greanville, Brewster, NY
The explosion of BP’s Deepwater Horizon drill rig on
April 20 and the resultant oil spill now consuming coastal
regions of the Gulf of Mexico could not have come at
a worse time for President Obama, who only recently
renewed a push to expand drilling off the coast of Virginia
and other regions of the U.S.
The debate over whether or not to tap offshore oil
reserves with dangerous drilling equipment has been
raging since extraction methods became feasible in
the 1950s. It heated up in 2008 when George W. Bush

of retiring before, but “we kept

Obey earned a reputation
as a reformer. He fought the
seniority system that concen-
trated power in the hands of
conservative Southerners and
chaired a task force that wrote
rules requiring lawmakers to
disclose their personal financ-
es and limit the potential for
conflicts of interest.
More recently, he has been
an architect of reforms of the
earmarking process, requir-
ing greater transparency and
blocking House members
from directing earmarks to
for-profit-companies whose
executives often return the
favor with campaign cash.
He has an irascible, some-
times prickly demeanor and
doesn’t suffer fools gladly. In
a 2007 incident, he was cap-
tured on camera by an anti-war
group telling activists who con-
fronted him outside his Capitol
Hill office that “idiot liberals”
didn’t understand Democrats’
strategy for leaving Iraq.
Suspect not yet linked
to any terrorist group
By MATT APUZZO and
EILEEN SULLIVAN
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — U.S.
counterterrorism officials
fanned out across two con-
tinents to unravel the failed
Times Square bombing
Wednesday, but they have
been unable so far to link the
suspect to any terrorist group
or training camp, law enforce-
ment officials said.
Faisal Shahzad was cooper-
ating with authorities for a third
day, but investigators remained
uncertain whether they were
dealing with a single, angry
man or a larger international
plot. The Obama administra-
tion, meanwhile tried to close
a security gap that allowed
Shahzad to board an airplane
while FBI agents closed in,
despite his being on the gov-
ernment’s “no-fly” list.
Shahzad has claimed,
authorities say, that he was
trained at a camp in Pakistan’s
lawless tribal region. That has
stoked fears that Saturday’s
nearly catastrophic bombing
was part of an international
plot.
If Shahzad was part of a
larger organization, it would
serve as a reminder that near-
ly a decade after the Sept.
11, 2001, attacks, foreign
terrorists are still trying to
strike on U.S. soil. Like the
unsuccessful Christmas Day
airline bombing near Detroit,
the Times Square plot could
be flaunted by terrorists, even
Obama: Begin work this
year on immigration reform
By ERICA WERNER
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — November, but by making the
President Barack Obama said
Wednesday he wants to begin
work this year on legisla-
tion overhauling the nation’s
immigration system, firming
up his commitment on a key
priority for Latino voters and
lawmakers.
Obama’s comments at a
Cinco de Mayo celebration at
the White House reaffirmed
his long-held support for
immigration reform. He went
a step further than he has in
the past by calling for the
work to begin this year.
Latino groups have been
calling for Obama to deliver
on his campaign promise of
making immigration reform
a top priority, with some
activists and lawmakers in
the Congressional Hispanic
Caucus complaining he
wasn’t doing enough.
Obama clouded the issue
last week by saying “there may
not be an appetite” in Congress
to deal with another hot-button
issue immediately after gruel-
ing fights over health care and
financial regulation.
There also may not be
enough time left on the leg-
GOP proposes alternate consumer plan
By JIM KUHNHENN
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Senate Banking Committee
Republicans offered a weak-
er alternative to consumer
protection measures that are
central to President Barack
Obama’s Wall Street regula-
tion plan, opening a new front
Wednesday in the Senate
debate over how to rein in
financial institutions.
The Senate pivoted
straight into that confronta-
tion after reaching a com-
promise on how to dismantle
large failing firms. In that
agreement, senators voted
93-5 to eliminate a conten-
tious $50 billion fund that
would have been used to pay
for a firm’s liquidation.
The Senate also voted 96-1
to protect taxpayers from
losses. But the government
would still have to put money
up front to cover the costs of
a firm’s orderly dissolution.
That money would be recov-
ered through sale of the failed
firm’s assets and by forcing
shareholders and creditors to
take substantial losses.
“While we have had our
differences in other areas, we
have always shared a com-
mitment to ensuring that
in failure.
And if an attacker operated
alone, the plot would raise
questions about how investi-
gators can prevent an assault
when there are few warning
signs, the prime suspect has
no known ties to terrorists and
the methods are crude.
Law enforcement and
counterterrorism officials,
speaking on condition of ano-
nymity to discuss the case,
said Wednesday they had not
verified the statements they
said Shahzad had made that
he was trained in Pakistan
for the attack. The Waziristan
region is home to several ter-
rorist and militant organiza-
tions.
The Pakistani Taliban
originally claimed responsi-
bility for the Times Square
bomb attempt, but officials
have said there was no evi-
dence that was true. One
counterterrorism official said
Wednesday such a link was
plausible but not confirmed.
Azam Tariq, a spokesman for
the Pakistani Taliban, told
CNN on Wednesday that his
group did not train Shahzad.
If a link were to be estab-
lished, it would represent a
significant operational leap
for the group, which has never
struck the U.S.
Pakistan’s ambassador to
the U.S., Husain Haqqani,
said Wednesday that no one
has been arrested or detained
in Pakistan in connection with
the probe, but that an unspeci-
fied number of people had
islative calendar to take up a
contentious issue with mid-
term elections looming in
commitment Obama may at
least be able to tell Hispanic
groups he tried.
Obama acknowledged
immigration reform would be
difficult to achieve and would
require bipartisan support —
something that’s lacking in
the Senate right now. And he
made no commitment to fin-
ishing the process this year.
But he said it was the only
way to deal with the nation’s
immigration problems.
“The way to fix our broken
immigration system is through
common-sense comprehen-
sive immigration reform,” the
president said.
“I want to begin work this
year and I want Democrats and
Republicans to work with me.”
Senate Majority Leader
Harry Reid, D-Nev., who’s up
for re-election in a state with
a growing Latino population,
also recently said he wants to
tackle immigration overhaul
this year, although pending
energy legislation — another
divisive issue — would likely
come first.
Reid last week released
draft immigration legislation
taxpayers will never again
be forced to bail out giant
Wall Street firms that fail,”
Chairman Chris Dodd,
D-Conn., said of his agree-
ment with the committee’s
top Republican, Sen. Richard
Shelby of Alabama.
Treasury Secretary
Timothy Geithner said the
bipartisan vote “demonstrates
the growing momentum for
passing comprehensive finan-
cial reform.”
But the Dodd and Shelby
agreement, and the quick suc-
cession of votes that followed,
belied the remaining partisan
disputes. And no disagree-
ment displayed partisan dif-
ferences more than the divide
over consumer protections.
The Republican plan would
limit the enforcement power
of a proposed consumer pro-
tection bureau and make its
rules subject to approval by a
top banking regulator.
The White House was
quick to object. Spokeswoman
Amy Brundage called the
Republican proposal “nothing
more than a lobbyist-influ-
enced defense of the status
quo and an attempt to water
down the consumer protec-
tions” in the bill.

been questioned.
In an interview with The
Associated Press prior to a
scheduled appearance at
the Harvard University’s
John F. Kennedy School of
Government in Cambridge,
Mass., Haqqani said investi-
gators are still trying to deter-
mine if Shahzad trained in
Pakistan, and if so where and
with whom.
But there were signs sug-
gesting Shahzad may not be
strongly linked to a group.
The Times Square car bomb
— a potent but haphazard
stash of propane, fireworks
and gasoline — did not dem-
onstrate the kind of explosives
training that terror groups in
Waziristan normally provide
ahead of a bombing opera-
tion, officials said. If Shahzad
was trained, they said, he was
trained quickly or poorly.
New York Police
Commissioner Raymond
Kelly said Wednesday at a
congressional hearing in
Washington that Shahzad, a
naturalized U.S. citizen from
Pakistan, apparently put his
plan in motion in March, a
month after returning from a
stay in Pakistan.
Shahzad bought a gun in
Connecticut that month, Kelly
said. And March 8, he was
captured on video buying fire-
works from a Matamoras, Pa.,
store. But they were consumer
grade and not nearly powerful
enough to detonate a bomb,
said Bruce Zoldan, president
of Phantom Fireworks.
with Sens. Chuck Schumer,
D-N.Y., and Robert Menendez,
D-N.J., that calls for more fed-
eral enforcement agents and
other border security-tighten-
ing benchmarks before ille-
gal immigrants could become
legal U.S. residents.
Obama praised that pro-
posal Wednesday. But the one
Republican who’s been will-
ing to work with Democrats
on the issue recently, Sen.
Lindsey Graham of South
Carolina, has balked at mov-
ing ahead this year.
The focus is on the Senate
because House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi, D-Calif., has made clear
that the Senate must act first on
the immigration issue before
she would force her Democrats
into another tough vote.
Again Wednesday, Obama
denounced the law passed in
Arizona that requires police
to question people about their
immigration status if there is
reason to suspect they’re in
the country illegally. Some
fear the law could lead to
racial profiling, and Obama
said federal officials were
monitoring it for possible
civil rights violations.
The president cited the
Arizona law as reason for action
on immigration legislation.
The GOP plan would cre-
ate a division of consumer
protection within the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corp. to
oversee nonbank mortgage
companies and write con-
sumer regulations. The FDIC
would have to sign off on
those rules.
In contrast, the Democratic
plan backed by the Obama
administration would create
an independent bureau within
the Federal Reserve to police
lending and other customer
financial service transactions.
It would have a freer hand to
enforce its regulations.
In another departure from
the pending Democratic bill,
the Republican plan would
continue the practice of
having federal laws over-
ride state laws. Under the
Democratic proposal, states
would be allowed to write
and enforce tougher laws,
a provision opposed by the
financial industry.
Creating a new consumer
financial protection entity
within the government is a
central piece of the Obama
administration’s regulatory
package. Obama has said he
would veto legislation that
contained consumer protec-
tions he deems too weak.

BY BECKY HIRN
Ever since I got back from
Ohio last week, the trip has
taken on an urgency that
wasn’t there before. Maybe
it’s like Saturday night and I
know the work week is com-
ing all too soon. The lazy
days of window-shopping
in charming downtowns and
strolling along beaches are
dwindling. Even our nights of
finding a great campsite or a
suitable parking lot are num-
bered. My reaction to this
is to grab up as many expe-
riences as possible before
Monday morning.
After school testing, Abby
and I flew from Ohio to
Seattle last week. On Tuesday
we didn’t waste a second. We
were back on the trip. A fel-
low traveler and Delphos res-
ident e-mailed us the perfect
Seattle itinerary. We wan-
dered through Pioneer Square
and until we landed in the
center of Seattle’s celebrated
market. At Pike Place, I saw
a young girl catch a gigan-
tic fish. We sniffed tulips,
bought corn dogs and blood
oranges. We were awed by
the first Starbucks store. It’s
amazing how such a small
storefront started a wide-
spread coffee craze. Later in
the day we rode the monorail
to the Space Needle and the
surrounding amusements.
The next day was a race
to Spokane. We met up with
family friends there. They
gave us a tour of the city.

as Reds beat Mets 5-4

By JOE KAY
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — The
wind latched onto Orlando
Cabrera’s long drive and
started shoving it toward the
foul pole, providing a little
extra drama in a series that
knew nothing else.
Cabrera led off
the 10th inning with
a homer that hit
the yellow screen
just inside the left-
field pole, giving
the Cincinnati
Reds a 5-4 win
over the New York Mets on
Wednesday and providing an
appropriate finish to a series
full of all-or-nothing swings.
Cabrera’s fifth game-end-
ing homer came off Pedro
Feliciano (1-1) and gave the
Reds their second last-swing
victory in a wild series. The
teams combined for 11 hom-
ers in the three games — all
solo shots.
Cincinnati showed it’s
much more adept at dramatic
endings. Nine of the Reds’
14 wins have come in their
final at-bat. Cincinnati is 4-0
in extra innings.
Micah Owings (3-0)
pitched one perfect inning
after Francisco Cordero blew
a 1-run lead in the ninth,
tying it at 4. Cordero gave
up a pair of hits and Jeff
Francoeur’s sacrifice fly,
his second blown save in 11
chances.
Brandon Phillips and
Jonny Gomes also homered
for the Reds. David Wright
had a solo shot for the Mets,
giving him a 9-game hit-
ting streak that includes four
homers.
All three games in the
In 1919, Boston Red Sox owner Harry Frazee sold Babe
Ruth to the New York Yankees
series were decided in the
ninth inning or later. On a
warm, windy afternoon, they
went at it again.
The Mets were last in the
league with a .234 team bat-
ting average. The Reds were
fourth-worst at .237. Their
best chance was to get one up
in the breeze.
Both teams
failed to get much
out of bases-load-
ed opportunities
early. Johnny Cueto
walked Angel Pagan
with the bases load-
ed to force in a run
in the third but Jose Reyes hit
a weak flyout and Jason Bay
hit a routine fly to end it. Bay
also stranded runners in scor-
ing position with strikeouts
in the fifth and seventh.
Bay got a $66 million,
4-year deal in December but
has struggled mightily as the
cleanup hitter with just one
homer and nine RBIs.
Cincinnati also wasted an
opportunity for a big inning,
this time in the fourth.
Cabrera singled with the
bases loaded to drive in one
run off Jonathon Niese but
Ramon Hernandez was eas-
ily out at the plate trying to
score from second on the
play.
Phillips, who was chas-
tised by Baker for failing
to run hard on his double
the previous night, snapped
a 2-all tie with his fourth
homer which barely cleared
the wall in right field.

moment of silence before

Pohlman went six innings,

fanned one in an inning of
relief, getting the save.

Lind homers in 9th to give Jays sweep of Indians
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Manny
Acta endured plenty of
losses with the Washington
Nationals. His time with the
Cleveland Indians hasn’t been
much better.
The Indians were one out
away Wednesday from ending
a losing streak and salvaging
a game against the Toronto
Blue Jays. Then his backup
shortstop made an error and
his closer left a fastball out
over the plate.
When Adam Lind’s ninth
inning 2-run homer landed in
the bleachers in left, the Blue
Jays had a 5-4 victory and
the Indians were dealt another
stinging loss.
Tribe closer Chris Perez
(0-2), trying to get five outs
told the kids before the start
of the game that we needed to
go into their next three games
like they were tournament
games. We need to be playing
at our best this time of year
and we found a way to win
tonight. That is what you have
to do if you want to make any
kind of tournament run.”
The Jays (10-10, 3-4 MAC)
scored first in the third. Geise
got aboard on an error, stole
second, moved to third on a
1-out sacrifice bunt by Tyler
Bergfeld and scored on anoth-
er error.
Parkway tied it in the
home half on an unearned
run, eventually scoring Ripley
for a 1-all tie.
The Blue Jays scored two
times in the sixth. Jordan
Leininger led off with a dou-
ble and moved up on a single
by Chris Pohlman. Leininger
scored courtesy of J. Pohlman
and a sacrifice fly by Mitchell
MacLennan drove in C.
Pohlman.
“Tonight was a big win for
us in the fact that it was not
how we have been typically
winning,” Metzger added.

18, retired the first two hit-
ters in the ninth. Following a
Fred Lewis double, his third
hit of the game, Aaron Hill
hit a slow roller to short that
trickled between the legs of
Luis Valbuena.
Lind’s blast on a 1-2 pitch
followed and Toronto had a
4-game winning streak and
its first 3-game sweep in
Cleveland since Sept. 9-11,
2002.
Valbuena, the team’s
regular second baseman, has
played short the last two days

started hitting 3-pointers.
After starting 1 of 7 from long
range, Phoenix made eight of
its next 12.
Tim Duncan had 29 points
and 10 rebounds and Richard
Jefferson rebounded from a
1-of-2 in the second half,
but had 11 assists for San
Antonio. Hill also made two
big shots down the stretch.
“Grant Hill never ceases
to amaze me,” Phoenix coach
Alvin Gentry said. “There’s a
37-year-old — he hates when
I say that. Here’s a guy who
plays on our team that’s been
in the league for a long, long
time. He just does a good
job. Everything we ask him
to do, never complains. He’s
always on the best perimeter
player. He never complains.
He just plays. He’ll forever be
my favorite player. He really
will.”
San Antonio coach Gregg
Popovich singled out Frye.
“He might have had one
that was open but the rest
were contested,” Popovich
said. “When he does that,
they’re very, very difficult to
guard.”
13 at the free-throw line. The
Suns outscored the Spurs by
14 at the line, going 29-of-37
to San Antonio’s 15-of-22.
“It was one of those games
where you think that you have
it,” Parker said, “and they just
make shot after big shot in the
second half.”
San Antonio led the entire
first half before the second
unit, led by the hustling Jared
Dudley, helped Phoenix climb
into a 51-51 tie at the break.
Phoenix led by 11 points
early in the second quarter
but the second unit, led by
Dudley, got the team back in
the game, especially with its
work on the offensive boards.
Referee Ron Garretson left
the game after the third quarter
with a leg injury. Fellow ref
Joey Crawford said Garretson
injured his Achilles’ tendon.
Substitute referee David Jones
worked the final quarter.

Students receive State FFA Degree

Four students made the
trip to convention to receive
their State FFA Degree. The
State Degree is the highest
degree that a member can
earn on the state level. The
Degree was awarded to the
top 2 percent of the Ohio
FFA’s 23,000 members.
In order to earn this
degree, students are
evaluated on the scope
and size of the Supervised
Agricultural Experience
Program (SAE), FFA
involvement, community
service, and academic
record. All components have
minimum standards and all
must be met in order to earn
the degree.
Students that attended
convention to earn their
degrees were honored
among the top in the state.
Colin Barclay has several
SAE projects including: job
placement at Ace Hardware
and on Barclay Farms
and raising market hogs
and tomato plants. Angie
Wiechart owns beef heifers
and cows. She also raises
and markets steers each year
as she exhibits them at the
Putnam County Fair.
Cory Osting has
accumulated hours doing
job placement at Moore Tree
Service, KMAT Services,
and Y and K Custom
Bailing.
Nathan Miller earned
his state degree from job
placement on Miller Farms
as well as raising and selling
steers.
Other members that
received the degree but
could not attend convention
included: Jason Michel,
Chris Pohlman, Brett
Bowersock, Sami Vermule
and Dulton Moore.

On Friday morning, on the way to convention, Delphos FFA Members had the
opportunity to tour Kettle Kreations in Lima. This facility is very involved in food
processing, which is one of the fastest growing segments of the agricultural industry.
The students were able to see first hand the steps it takes to create some of their favorite
food products. The Delphos FFA would like to thank John Klausing for making this
opportunity available.

FFA members recognized at State Convention
Proficiency awards are
awards that recognize students
have outstanding SAE
programs. Students complete
a twenty page application that
explains, in detail, the program
that they have started, the
money that has been earned and
invested, and skills that they
have learned from having the
program. This year, Delphos
had eight students that placed
in the top four in the state in
their respective proficiency
areas. These students were
recognized at the State FFA
Convention this past weekend.
Three students were named as
state winners.
Jason Michel finished third in the area of Emerging
Agricultural Technology. His SAE consists of converting
used cooking grease into biofuel. Jason completes all steps
of the conversion process including heating the oil, adding
lye and methanol, and storing the finished product. He
has produced 640 gallons to date.
Insect and disease control
in backyard fruit trees
BY GLEN ARNOLD,
OSU Extension -
Ag educator
Now that most back yard
fruit trees have finished pol-
linating (no longer blooming)
homeowners seeking to pro-
tect their apples, pears, peaches
and other fruit from insects
and diseases should consider
a spray schedule. This time in
the development of the fruit
crop is known as “petal fall.”
The three primary insects of
fruit in Ohio are the plum cur-
culio, codling moth and apple
maggot. The primary disease is
scab. Fruit tree sprays that con-
tain an insecticide for insect
control and a fungicide for dis-
ease control are needed to keep
fruit from being damaged by
these pests.
The plum curculio’s name
is somewhat misleading
because this insect attacks not
only plums, but also apples,
peaches, pears, and cherries.
The major injury occurs from
the laying of eggs by the cur-
culios (weevils). A small cav-
Planting prompts soybean growers to
commit crops to nourishing children
WORTHINGTON — As
Ohio soybean growers put
seeds in the ground this spring,
they are also taking action to
ensure their crop nourishes
hungry children. Many farm-
ers from around Ohio and
the U.S. are giving the value
of an acre of soybeans to
the World Soy Foundation’s
Acre Challenge. The process
is simple, even though many
of the children are thousands
of miles away in developing
countries.
“The World Soy
Foundation makes it easy to
do the right thing with our
soybeans,” said Jeff Wuebker,
Acre Challenge Participant
and president of the Ohio
Soybean Association. “Our
crop makes a real differ-
ence in the lives of chil-
dren through the World Soy
Foundation. By improving
their health with our soy, we
are nourishing minds as well
as bodies. There is still time
to give, I just gave my dona-
tion last month and I will
soon plant my acre that I plan
to give next year.”
Children from around the
Washington Leadership
Conference is a National
FFA leadership program
that takes place in the
Nation’s capitol. Taylor
VanGrootheest was awarded
a partial scholarship to
attend this prestigious
event. She was able to apply
for this scholarship because
of the Delphos FFA Booster
Club’s affiliation to the
State FFA Alumni.
ity is made in the fruit for the
egg; then a crescent-shaped cut
is made adjacent to the egg
pocket. The early feeding and
egg-laying punctures can cause
marked scarring and malfor-
mation of the fruit.
Larvae hatching from the
eggs feed inside the fruit until
they are fully grown. On some
fruits, few if any of the young
larvae survive to maturity if
the fruits continue to grow
on the tree. Larval feeding in
apples can cause distortion of
the fruit.
The codling moth is one
of the most serious pests of
apples, but the larvae may also
attack pears, and other fruits.
The larva is the familiar “apple
worm.” The larva usually tun-
nels to the core of the apple. As
it feeds, it pushes out a mass of
chewed material, or excrement,
called “frass,” which accumu-
lates around the entrance hole.
The first codling moths of
the season usually appear as
the last petals fall from the
apple blossoms. The peak of
moth emergence occurs 4 to

Africa, Afghanistan, Haiti,
Honduras and more benefit
from support of the World Soy
Foundation. Contributions

One in six people in the
world today is malnourished.
Soy is an important part of
the solution to global malnu-
trition since it offers much-
needed protein and other
nutrition.
The World Soy Foundation
is a charitable organization
that can put the value of
one acre of soybeans to use
against hunger. Forty bush-
els of beans, the approximate
national average yield, will
make 18,000 rations of soy
protein to children and adults
in locations ranging from
Africa to Latin America to
Asia.
“We see children grow
stronger thanks to the gen-
erosity of soybean farmers,”
said World Soy Foundation
Executive Director Nathan
Ruby. “Farmer funds are lev-
eraged with industry support-
Trina Pohlman was named the state winner in
the area of Agricultural Service. She has worked
over 3500 hours at Delphos Ace Hardware and
rental where she is responsible for stocking
shelves, providing customer service, and other

in the Star State Degree Program in the area
of placement. She won this award for District

12 days later, depending on
weather conditions. The last
moths may not appear until six
or seven weeks after petal fall.
The apple maggot is a major
pest of homegrown apples in
Ohio. Female flies lay eggs
just under the skin of the apple.
The peak emergence occurs
from late July to early August.
The larvae, or maggots, which
hatch from the eggs, tunnel at
random throughout the flesh
of the fruit, usually avoiding
the core.
External signs of mag-
got infestation are the minute
brownish egg punctures in the
skin. These are often small,
distorted or pitted areas on the
surface of the apple, and some-
times a white wax covers the
puncture. The maggots feed
by tearing open cells in the
apple flesh with a pair of black
mouth hooks. They then absorb
the cell juices. If the fruit is
near maturity, growth is rapid
and the larvae become fully
grown and leave the fruit in 8
to 12 days.

vessel that will use a crane
to lower the contraption to
cover the gusher of oil spew-
ing from the seabed — some-
thing that has never been
tried before at such depths.
BP spokesman Bill Salvin
said the drop is expected at
about noon today.
The dome-like top of the
structure is designed to act
like a funnel and siphon the
oil up through 5,000 feet of
pipe and onto a tanker at the
surface. Oil has been gush-
ing into the Gulf of Mexico
at a rate of at least 200,000
gallons a day since an off-
shore drilling rig exploded
and sank last month, killing
11 people.
“We’re a little anxious.
They’re gonna try everything
they can. If it don’t work,
they’ll try something else,”
Capt. Demi Shaffer told The
Associated Press aboard his
boat just after it set off. The
AP is the only news orga-
nization with access to the
containment effort.
A 12-man crew aboard a
supply boat was carrying the
precious cargo. The 280-foot
Joe Griffin, owned by Edison
Chouest Offshore, also was
involved in helping fight the
unprecedented and engineers
are fully aware of the risks.
First, crews need to prop-
erly position the four-story
structure above the well as it
sinks deep into the mud at the
bottom of the Gulf with the
help of a remote-controlled
robotic submarine. A steel
pipe will be attached to a
tanker at the surface and con-
nected to the top of the dome
to move the oil.
“It’s very dark down there
... and we will have lights on
the (submersibles), and we
know exactly where to put
this and guide it into place,”
said David Clarkson, BP’s
vice president for project
execution.
That process presents sev-
eral challenges because of the
frigid water temperature —
about 42 degrees Fahrenheit
— and exceptionally high
pressure at those depths.
Those conditions could cause
the pipe to clog with what are
known in the drilling indus-
try as “ice plugs.” To com-
bat that problem, crews plan
to continuously pump warm
