Trostel to address historical Candlelight gathering held

society after annual meeting
The 103rd annual
Membership Meeting
of the Allen County
Historical Society will be
held at 2 p.m. Jan. 30 in
the Folsom Auditorium
of the Allen County
Museum.
After a brief business
meeting, Scott Trostel
will give a presenta-
tion entitled, “Saving
Streetcar #60.”
One of the earliest
forms of public trans-
portation in Lima, Allen
County was the Lima
Street Railway. It was
the second electrified
streetcar system in the
United States, thanks
to Benjamin Faurot. It
ceased operation in 1939
when it was replaced by
bus transportation.
In 1962, John H. Keller,
and the Allen County
Historical Society,
located the remnants of
Streetcar #60 in Findlay.
The cab of the car was
the only salvageable
part. It was removed to
storage in Allen County
where it remained until
2009. At that time, the
Historical Society con-
tacted Trostel, a Fletcher
author and railroad his-
torian, to seek his input
about potential restora-

ATHENS (AP) — A build-

evacuated as a precaution after
the discovery of a bottle of
acid that was possibly explo-

The university’s asso-

were found Friday morning
in the bottle of picric acid
in the school’s Life Sciences

when crystallized.
Adams says no one was hurt
and the acid was not spilled.

R.R. stops running its one steam engine
The Lima-Defiance rail-
road company has again
ceased operating and several
Lima patrons of the line are
finding some difficulty in
securing service as a result.
This line has had difficul-
ties for many years past. It
was discontinued at one time
and later revived. For some-
time, it has been operating
one steam engine. It failed
some years ago as a traction
line.
The Lima State hospital
has been dependent upon this
road for delivery of supplies
and is now seeking other
switching service.

according to E.E. Cross, rep-
resentative of the company,
who came to Delphos with a
Gramm bus which has been

The company brought
the bus here for a complete

found necessary to be done
to the motor was a check of
the bearings and installing
new rings.
Mr. Cross states that he
has driven this bus more
than 72,000 miles and is
very enthusiastic concerning
its performance.
Speaking of the chassis,
he said, “It is the most won-
derful chassis ever put on
the market.” He has driv-

Cedar Point was the

ball of the order; the climax
of the week’s outing.
“The outing this year is
only a beginning,” State
Secretary Gorman declared.
“We had little time to pre-
pare and complete programs
as this was the first outing
since 1917, we naturally are
working under handicaps.
However, from the response

Nail in Homes
of Prehistoric Man
When you drive a nail into
your wall to hang a picture,
do you ever pause to think
that you are using something
with a history almost as old
as humanity itself?
A nail over two and a half
pounds in weight, and thick
in proportion, was found in
ruins of Troy. And similar
enormous nails have been
recovered from the remains
of lake dwellings and other
places where prehistoric man
made his home.
All nails were originally
made at home. Then, when
the smith became a special-
ist craftsman, he made the
nails of the community, until
a special nailsmith started
in business. In the fifteenth
century there was a guild of
nailsmiths in Augsburg.
The first nail-making
machine was invented in
Britain at the end of the
Eighteenth century, and
a little later the first nail
factories were at work in
Birmingham.

Trade Fair,
Centuries Old
Leipzig, Germany — An
army of more than 1,500
merchants from all parts of
the United States invaded
Germany this spring to
attend the Leipzig Trade fair.
To visit this world expo-
sition is to look into the
future for almost a year, and
see the goods of every kind
which will fill the shops,
next Christmas. Germany is
reputed to be the home of
Santa Claus. Every variety
of industrial product was
displayed.
World expositions come
and go, but the Leipzig fair
goes on, apparently, forever.
It has been held every
year without a break for sev-
eral centuries now. In its
early days traders journeyed
to Leipzig by primitive cara-
vans, protected from high-
waymen by guards in medi-
eval armor. Today, from 41
countries scattered through-
out the world, about 200,000
visitors travel to Leipzig,
among whom the buyers
from the United States play
an important part.

Robbed of $1500
Cash and Jewelry
A robbery in which cash
and jewelry to the value of
approximately $1500 were
taken, took place in Delphos
at an early hour Friday morn-
ing.
Shortly after midnight,
three men appeared at the
Charles Danner home, South
Canal street, and stated they
were federal prohibition offi-
cers who entered to make a
search.
As soon as they were in
the house, they were found
to be masked. They drew
pistols and proceeded to
search for valuables, first
cutting the telephone wires
to prevent an alarm.
They took $85 in cash,
diamond earrings and other
jewelry.
Two of the men are said
to have been large and the
other small. The police were
called after they left but no
clue to the identity could be
obtained.
Five men were seen after
the robbery in a Dodge and
are thought to have been the
robbers. They could not be
located.

Determine
Animal’s Horsepower
Is a horse’s power a
horsepower?
Ohio farmers interested in
the answer to this question
may find it at the county fair
this fall. A machine known
as a dynamometer has been
purchased by the animal
husbandry department at
the Ohio State University
to measure horses’ pulling
power. Several county fairs
are scheduled to use it for
pulling contests.
The dynamometer will
first be used in Ohio in Clark
County at the annual farmers
picnic in Springfield.
Sixteen states have
made use of the dynamom-
eter since its invention in
1923 at Iowa Agricultural
Experiment Station. Already
it has proved that a horse’s
power may be more than a
horsepower.
The maximum so far
developed, according to
the Horse Association of
America is 29 horsepower,
developed by the team which
now holds the world’s cham-
pionship in pulling, “Cap”
and “King” brothers, half
Belgian and half Percheron,
owned by Clarence Bugh,
Cherokee, Iowa. These hors-
es, weighing 3700 pounds,
pulled 3475 pounds a dis-
tance of 27 1/2 feet, which
was equivalent to starting
15 or 20 times, a load of
45,120 pounds on granite
block pavement.

It was a
Glorious Victory
And so thought the
Delphos portion of the large
assemblage of fans who
attended the game between
Delphos and Van Wert,
Ohio-Indiana league teams,
in which the two aggrega-
tions staged a fierce battle
for leadership of the league.
The final score was 3 to 1,
Delphos leading.
Miller was pitching for
Delphos and held his own
nicely. Davis, on the mound
for Van Wert, was equal-
ly effective. Each pitcher
allowed six hits.
Errors in judgement pre-
vented the Delphos team
from scoring on at least two
occasions and things began
to look bad for them when
they went scoreless into the
eighth inning, while the visi-
tors had one run to their
credit. The eighth however,
proved the Delphos inning,
two hits, coupled with two
errors, giving them three
runs.

City Well
Provided
With Tourist Camps
Tourists are coming to
know Delphos as a place
which is well provided with
tourist camps, a place worth
visiting when on a motor
tour.
Waterworks park is an
ideal camping place for tour-
ists. The park is beautiful
with its fine large trees. It
is provided with the best of
water, an item which every
camper values highly. The
pool, playground equipment
and many other features,
commend it to people who
are seeking a place to stop
for one night or for a rest of
several days.
Supplies may be pur-
chased at or in the immedi-
ate vicinity of the park, or a
very short run will take the
motorist to the heart of the
business district.
In addition to Waterworks
park, there is Peltier park on
the Harding highway, on the
east bank of the Auglaize.
It is a natural park site and
has been made into an excel-
lent tourist camp. Its loca-
tion along the river makes
it a favorite place to stop
overnight.

Old School Bell

called reluctant youth to its
studies will continue on the

take up its usual duties again
next fall.
A timely inspection found
that the elements had weak-
ened the supports and that
the bell was in danger of
being dropped to the roof of
the Jefferson school.
New timbers have been
added, however, and its
call will sound again in
September, bringing fond

Delphos community even
though its tones may not
receive unqualified welcome

Second half lifts Blue Jays in MAC play
By AUSTIN CLARKSON
The Delphos Herald

DELPHOS — The St.
John’s Blue Jay boys basket-
ball team came out the sec-
ond half Friday night look-
ing like a completely different
ball club than in the first half
of play at Robert A. Arnzen
Gymnasium.
The home team — trailing
24-22 — wanted the victory a
bit more than the Redskins of
St. Henry and their aggressive
and tough defense propelled
them above the ’Skins in the
second half, outscoring their
Midwest Athletic Conference
opponent 24-16 in the last
16 minutes of the contest to
squeak by the guests by a score
of 46-40 to stay undefeated in
league play (3-0).
The Blue Jays jumped out
to a 15-7 lead after the first
quarter of action by gaining the
momentum and playing very
hard for head coach Aaron
Elwer and the Blue Jay crowd
as they were a very big part of
this MAC showdown.
The Jays were led on the
night by sophomore standout
Curtis Geise, who netted 23
points on the night, including a
very big second half as he led
his team to a victory.
The second quarter was a
problem for the Jays as they
came out a little slow and it
cost them the lead going into
the locker rooms. The ’Skins
outscored the Jays 17-7 in the
second quarter and gained a lit-
tle bit of the momentum away
from the home team to take
a 2-point lead into intermis-
sion and were looking like they
might have figured things out.
Elwer thought that his team
played with a lot of passion
in the second half to propel
them over the ’Skins: “We

There are some wins that
can define a month and oth-

And then sometimes, there

Spencerville might have
just captured that victory.
Led by Derek Goecke’s
21 points and a game-win-
ning layup by Dan Binkley,
the Bearcats overcame a
13-point first-half deficit on
their home court Friday night
and outlasted a previously-
unbeaten Columbus Grove
squad in a double overtime
Northwest Conference vic-
tory, 64-63.
“That’s as big as it gets,”

best he had ever felt as a
head coach. “That’s the bot-
tom line. That’s as big as it

really came out ready to play.
Curtis has been solid for us all
year and the kids have seen
that and try to get the ball to
him as much as possible to hit
some big shots for us; tonight
was no exception.”
The second half was a
totally different Blue Jay club
as they came out ready to go
and really showed their tough-
ness in the final 16 minutes
of the contest. The Jays may
not have all the offensive fire-
power as they’ve had in the
past couple seasons but the
thing that separates this team
is how well they play defense,
their intensity and the thrill
to win and compete in every
game. The Jays regained their
lead in the third quarter and
looked like they were starting
to get on a roll as they headed
into the final quarter of play in
front 33-31.
Seniors Alex Recker and
Derek Klaus did a nice job for
the Jays in the fourth quarter
in the post as they played very
physically on both the offen-
sive and defensive side of the
ball. Geise handled the ball
very well down the stretch;
the Jays weren’t perfect from
the foul line (13-of-22) but
they were good enough to get
the job done. They outscored
the Redskins 13-9 in the final
quarter to stay perfect in MAC
play this year as all three of
their victories have come from
league play.
With the win, the Blue Jays
move to 3-5 on the year and
will be back in action tonight
when they play host to the
Shawnee Indians with a junior
varsity start time of 6 p.m. at
“The Vatican.”
The Jays’ JV team also got
a victory Friday night as they
defeated the Skins 54-45 to
improve to 8-0 (3-0 MAC).

we are supposed to play.
We played hard.”
Despite their clear
edge in energy and heart,
things didn’t look good for
Spencerville early. In fact,
the first half had all the
makings of a Grove blow-
out.
Led by 10 first-quarter
points by Luke Kohls and
another six by Jordan Travis,
the Bulldogs jumped out to
a 20-11 lead after the open-
ing stanza. Midway through
the second quarter, Grove
had extended that lead to 14
points and seemingly had
the game well in hand.
Spencerville found some
life late in the first half
behind seven straight points
by Goecke and pulled with-
in five points at 29-25 but
two late free throws by the
Bulldogs put the lead back
to seven points by halftime,
31-24, and the game still
seemed to be a Grove win

Once the teams returned
from halftime, however, the
end began for Grove.
The third quarter was lit-
erally all Spencerville, with
the Bearcat defense hold-
ing Grove without a single
field goal in the quarter and
only a lone free throw to
show for their trouble. The
Bearcat defensive work was
particularly impressive in
regards to holding Kohls
without a point after the
reigning NWC Player of the
Year scored 18 points in the
first half.
“I’m not sure if we played
them again that would hap-
pen,” said Sensabaugh can-
didly. “They hit a cold spell
and I think the zone gave
them some fits. They were
getting some open looks but
they weren’t hitting them.
I think we were fortunate
in that respect but I think
our guys played with the
energy and enthusiasm that
was needed on defense and
it kind of threw them.”

Lancers’ 2nd quarter dooms Jeffcats
By JIM METCALFE
jmetcalfe@
delphosherald.com
RURAL MIDDLE POINT
— Jefferson’s boys basket-
ball team started out OK
versus Lincolnview Friday
night.
The second quarter did
the Wildcats in, getting
outscored 15-4 by the host
Lancers in the period and
never quite overcoming that
in falling 53-49 in Northwest
Conference action at the
Lancerdome.
The Wildcats (4-5, 1-2
NWC) lost despite the tri-
ple-double of senior Ryan
Ebbeskotte: 11 markers, 11
boards, 10 assists, with 3
steals thrown in.
“He’s capable of that and
even more every night. He’s
had to make the adjustment
from being a playmaking
point guard to being a major
scorer for us; we constantly
have the discussion — since
summer — to tell him to
shoot more,” Jefferson coach
Marc Smith noted. “He’s a
48-percent 3-point shooter.
Still, overall, we only played
with a sense of urgency for
20 minutes. They didn’t do
anything we didn’t expect;
we just did not play with the
level of urgency we needed.
We’re not talented or good
enough, nor am I a good
enough coach, for us to play
like that.”
The visitors led 15-14 to
start the second period but
struggled against the Lancer
1-3-1 zone. They shot 1-of-9
from the floor in the canto
(19-of-45 for the night, 4-of-
15 downtown, for 42.4%). On
the other end, junior sharp-
shooter Sloan Whitaker got
cooking for the hosts (3-7,
1-2 NWC), pouring in 11 of
his game-high 21, including
a pair of 3s. He scored nine
markers in a closing 11-0
spurt — started by his triple
at 2:20 and culminated by
his bomb from the right wing
that beat the horn — that put
the Lancers up 29-19.
The Lancers canned 6-of-
16 shots against the Wildcats
1-2-2 zone (19-of-40 for the
game, 5-of-12 long range,
for 47.5%).
“We grew up a little
bit tonight. I am so proud
— I can’t say that enough
— about these kids,”
Lincolnview coach Rob
Welch began. “We’re young
but we’re halfway through
the season, too. These kids
are starting to understand
where they’re supposed to
be and when, who our scor-
ers are and what roles they
need to play. Sloan just made
some tough shots tonight and
the light has gone on for Jack
(Frank) the last four games.
He was on varsity last year
and dropped him down to JV
but he never gave up.”
Delphos started the third
period with an 8-0 salvo
— five from senior Logan
Bonifas (12 counters, 8 car-
oms for the game) to get

fourth. Davis began to take
over on the Wildcat side,
scoring seven points despite
four fouls. Hurless stayed all
over Simindinger, holding
him down until he picked up
his fourth foul with a little
more than two minutes to
go. The Bath guard would
score nine points after that
but it was not enough as
Clifton took over for the
Cougars.
A steal and runout by the
Van Wert senior started the
period and he followed that
with an up-and-under and
then a trey from the wing.
Davis answered with a drive
but then a Clifton putback

within 29-26 at the 4:40
mark. By the 2:59 mark, they
were within 31-29 on a base-
line jumper from junior Nick
Dunlap (14 points). However,
the Lancers — using only six
players — pieced together a
9-2 closing spurt, once more
finished off by a Whitaker
deep trifecta from the right
wing that beat the horn, to
push the margin to 40-33.
The Wildcats switched
from their zone into a man-
to-man and began to extend
it to 3/4-quarter court and
eventually full. Frank (12
points, 5 boards, 3 blocks)
scored a 3-point play for the
home team to get them a
10-point edge on the first
possession of the finale.
With Ebbeskotte (6 mark-
ers) and Dunlap (5) leading
the way, the Wildcats tried
to rally and did get within
48-44 at the 1:18 mark on an
Ebbeskotte jumper. However,
thanks to 3-of-4 free throws
by freshman Kyle Williams
and a layin off a steal — an
exchange of turnovers — by
Zach Kreischer, the Wildcats
could get no closer despite a
3-ball from senior Mitchell
Antalis and a deuce from
Ebbeskotte.
Lincolnview hit 7-of-10
singles in the period (10-of-
14 overall for 71.4% versus
7-of-12 for the visitors for
58.3%).
Delphos got off quickly
— a 6-0 lead, forcing Welch
to call time at 5:13. Back
came the Blue and Gold to tie
it twice — 6-6 and 9-9. The
Wildcats held their largest
lead — 15-11 — on a 3-point
play by Bonifas with 4.3
ticks left but Kreischer fired
took the score to 53-45.
A couple of missed Van
Wert shots and a turnover
allowed Bath to crawl back
to 53-50 but Myers came
up big, nailing a 3-pointer
of his own at the 1:47 mark
for a 56-50 Cougar lead.
From there, it was a constant
march to the free-throw line
as the Cougars made 12-of-
15 from the charity stripe
in the quarter, including
10-of-10 by Clifton. A long
3-pointer from Simindinger
beyond the top of the key
brought the score a little
closer as time wound out.
“Bath played very well,”
said Froelich. “They hurt us
off penetration; they were
quicker and better with the
ball. We know we are going
to get people’s best shot
and that’s the way it should
be in a league game. But I
thought the kids responded.

his team within 15-14.
“I have the utmost respect
for Mr. Whitaker and I do
mean Mr. To go from being
a spot-shooter to a first-team
NWC performer is a testa-
ment to his commitment,”
Smith added. “I don’t like
losing to him but I have
the greatest respect for him.
I want our young players
to take a good look at him
and the hard work he put in
— and the commitment he
made — to becoming a great
player. Some of the shots he
hit were unguardable. He was
the best player out there and
he made plays. Give credit to
Lincolnview altogether; they
made plays.”
The Red and White out-
rebounded the Lancers 29-21
(12-6 offensive) and the team
tied with 13 turnovers each.
The Wildcats had 15 fouls to
11 for the home team.
Clayton Longstreth led
the hosts with nine boards.
“We’ve come to rely a lot
on the 1-3-1. The kids under-
stand what they’re doing in
it and they’re getting good
at it,” Welch added. “We
didn’t trap as we usually do
to begin with but in the sec-
ond period, we trapped and
got some big steals. When
they tried to rally, we came
up with the big bucket to
get it back to 6 or 7. We hit
some free throws when we
had to have them. We actu-
ally could have 2 or 3 more
wins.”

balls, we rebounded a little
bit better - and we contained

third quarter. It was a good
game.”
Bath was led by
Simindinger’s 24 points
while Davis added 14. The
Wildcats cooled off a lit-
tle from the field, making
24-of-42 on the night for
57 percent, including 3-of-8
(37.5%) from beyond the
arc. One downfall in the
game was free-throw shoot-
ing as the team was only
8-of-19 for 42 percent.
Van Wert’s Clifton led all

poured in 17. The Cougars

for an even 46 percent with
4-of-12 (33.3%) of those

BALTIMORE: These two
or even an intense dislike! They
split the regular season, both win-
ning on the other’s home field. It
took a — depends on your outlook
— a supreme play by Long-Haired
Troy or a stupid one by Joe Flacco
for the Steelers to win in Baltimore.
You have two of the oldest — if
not the oldest — defenses in the
NFL but both appear to be healthy.
Neither offense is going to score a
lot of points. The difference seems
to be that Ed Reed is finally back to
his old self at safety for the Ravens.
He gives them a playmaker that
can counter Polamalu. This will be
a knock-down, drag-out, last-man-
standing matchup. Give a slight —
very slight — nod to Ravens.
GREEN BAY: Aaron Rodgers
has shook off the effects of his
concussion. If Sparks can give
the Packers even a close resem-
blance of the running game they
had last week against Iggles — a
pretty good run defense — that
gives them what Matt Ryan has
had in his tenure in Hotlanta: the
deadly play-action pass. However,
the Packers defense has finally put
it all together and I am not sure
Falcons have enough weapons out-
side — though Tony Gonzales and
“Rowdy” Roddy White are a darn
good pair — to get much going.
Saints also exploited Falcons three
weeks ago in Georgia Dome and
Packers will do the same. Pack gets

ENGLAND:
As I wrote in
my Metcalfe’s
Boninsegna Musings —
remember those?
— methinks Rex Ryan and Antonio
Cromartie will regret shooting their
mouths off about Bill Belichick and
Tom Brady. I don’t think you’ll see
a repeat of 45-3 slobberknocker in
Week 13 but don’t be surprised if
Patriots turned this one into another
laugher, especially if Ben Jarvis-
Green-Ellis gives them ANY run-
ning game.

DAVE BONINSEGNA
Baltimore at Pittsburgh: Both
are 1-1 with each other on the sea-
son; the rubber game for the right
to go to the AFC Championship.
As much as i will be rooting for the
Ravens, I think the Steelers find a
way to win at home.
Jets at NE: The Pats destroyed
the Jets in their last meeting; they
may not give them the beating they
did last time but they move on to
play again. Patriots win.
Seahawks at Chicago: To
quote Garth Brooks, “It’s Midnight
Cinderella”, or in this case, Seattle.
Packers at Atlanta: Gotta go
with the home team on this one;
this is the one game of the four
where it won’t matter to me who
wins.

AUSTIN CLARKSON
Steelers Over Ravens. Steelers
are always tough at home in the
playoffs and I think that Big Ben
will come up big and Wallace will
have a big game receiving.
Patriots over Jets. Patriots are
fired up about the comments of
some of the Jets players and their
coach Rex Ryan so I think that
Tom Brady will come out firing
and lead his team to a victory at
home.
Packers over Falcons. Packers
have been playing very well as of
late and Aaron Rodgers is ready
to come up big in the playoffs
and lead his Green Bay team deep
into the playoffs and their defense
is also very tough to beat with
Clay Matthews leading that fierce
defense on the road in Atlanta.
Seahawks over Bears. Seahawks
are coming off of a very big and
impressive victory over the reign-
ing Super Bowl champs and are
starting to gain confidence as they
start to build up momentum to
make a Super Bowl run as Matt
Hasselback leads the Seahawks
into Chicago to try and give Pete
Carroll his first Super Bowl ring

Tomorrow’s Horoscope
Sunday, Jan. 16, 2011
Both an exciting and busy cycle is
likely to emerge in the coming year,
due to the worthy lessons you’ve
learned about the value of creative
expression. A rewarding market
could emerge when the public gets a
load of your wares.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
- Certain conscientious efforts that
you recently exerted could begin to
pay off and bear fruit. If you’ve laid
a strong foundation, your successes
will be quite impressive.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
- Wit, warmth and charm are some
of your most enviable assets and the
reasons why others are implored to
seek out your company. Good things
will happen because of what you are.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
- Help out someone you love by
showing this person how to make the
most of his/her resources. Because
you’ve been through a lot yourself,
you’re the best one to help.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - If
you’re doing anything of an important
nature, be sure to align yourself with
experienced people who can help
your cause, not hinder it, even if it’s
merely a sports challenge.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
- Even if this isn’t a workday for
you, some kind of opportunity to
accumulate funds is highly possible.
It might come from being able to
open a door that few have been able
to access.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -
This is a good day to get together with
a pal who hasn’t been as cooperative
with what you’ve been doing lately
as s/he used to be. Find out what
the reason might be, in case you can
change it.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -
There is an excellent chance that you
will be receiving some assistance
with a matter in which you have been
feeling alone and rejected. This help
will turn everything right ‘round for
you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Should
one arise, don’t ignore an opportunity
to help lift a heavy responsibility off
of a friend’s shoulder. It’ll do much
for you in sowing fresh seeds for true
camaraderie.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - The
sudden realization that it’s possible to
achieve several important objectives
will light a fire under your haunches.
Once you believe you can reach your
goals, they’ll seem much easier.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -
Being born with good leadership
qualities won’t do a thing for you
unless you take the reins when a
need arises. If or when you feel tied
down by outside forces, let your
assertiveness emerge.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -
Certain explicit insights with which
you’re endowed should enable you
to succeed in handling a development
that has others baffled. Don’t hesitate
to step up, stomp the yard and take
care of business.
By Bernice Bede Osol
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.
21) - It’s time to sort out and put to
use some lessons you’ve recently
learned that you’ve been anxious
to try. By restructuring your ideas,
you’ll find several new means to
gratify your efforts.
Monday, Jan. 17, 2011
Although material gratification
might come much easier for you
in the next year, guard against
taking anything for granted and
complacency. You could lose out just
as quickly as you lucked out, and end
up right back where you started.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) - There are only so many hours in
a day, and if you hope to take care of
several critical tasks, it is important
that you don’t waste any of them on
frivolous activities.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) - When involved in an amicable
competitive game with friends, keep
wagering out of the picture. Money
could suddenly become a huge issue
and alter the complexion of the
game.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
- Welcome all friendly suggestions
made by others concerning a problem
that you’re having, but don’t limit
yourself to the available answers.
Keep probing until you’re sure.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -
You might be able to be somewhat
laid back about frivolous matters, but
not so when it comes to your business
dealings. Be careful that you don’t
treat serious matters indifferently.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -
Allowing another to make a decision
for you about a matter that you
regard as unimportant is likely to
end up resulting in some unexpected
HI AND LOIS
expenditure on your part. Call your
own shots.
GEMINI (May 21-June
20) - Make sure that you don’t
underestimate your competition.
What you think is your ace in the
hole might be something they can
easily trump.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -
Avoid having anything important to
do with a person or organization that
you know for a fact has a hard time
keeping a promise. Nothing is likely
to have changed.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -
Mindlessly spending a little too much BLONDIE
here and there will quickly get you
into hot water. Be mindful of your
purchases, or you could brutally
batter your wallet.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
- Unless you are cognizant of
your every move, a goal of major
significance could easily wriggle
away. Should you slip back a step or
two, be prepared to put on the brakes
and get back on course.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -
When in conversations with persons
of importance, limit your palaver
to topics that you’re thoroughly
familiar with. If that’s impossible,
don’t pretend to possess knowledge
that you don’t have.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - A BEETLE BAILEY
failure to see and acknowledge your
financial expectations could prove
to be an extremely costly mistake.
Don’t pin your hopes on unrealistic,
rose-colored projections.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-
Dec. 21) - Avoid associating with
individuals who don’t operate on
your wavelength, either business-
wise or socially. Being around them
could invite discomfort.

1 in 5 say no progress toward King’s dream

By ERRIN HAINES
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Having a
black president hasn’t exactly
led Americans to believe their
country has moved closer to
the ideal of racial equality
preached by Martin Luther
King Jr., according to a new
poll.
The AP-GfK poll found
77 percent of people inter-
viewed say there has been
significant progress toward
King’s dream, about the same
percentage as felt that way
in 2006, before Obama was
elected. Just more than one in
five, 22 percent, say they feel
there has been “no significant
progress” toward that dream.
On Monday, the nation
will mark the 25th anniver-
sary of the federal observance
of King’s birthday. The civil
rights icon would have been
82.
On the heels of the post-
racial sentiment that swept
Obama into office in 2008,
critics have emerged ques-
tioning the president’s U.S.
citizenship, mocking his
Kenyan heritage, and criticiz-
ing his stance on health care
reform as socialist and costly.
Some say Obama’s efforts to
unify Americans ring hollow
in a nation that is palpably
more partisan and divided
since he became president
two years ago.
“The exuberance and
thrill of seeing an African
American elected to the pres-
idency has been tempered by
the outrageous claims that
we’ve heard about him,”
said William Jelani Cobb, a
history professor at Rutgers
University.
Real concerns that King
fought for remain, even with
a black president, he said.
“And the violent rhetoric
we’ve seen directed towards
(Obama) diminishes the ini-
tial sentiment that we’ve
made great progress because
of the election,” he said.
The poll also reveals that
more people plan to celebrate
the federal holiday honoring
King — 30 percent, com-
pared to 23 percent who had
such plans five years ago.
That includes 46 percent of
non-whites, 38 percent of
college graduates, 36 percent
who live in urban areas and
36 percent who attend reli-
gious services at least week-
ly, according to the poll.
Margaret Bertels, 58, a
legal assistant from Berkeley,
Calif., and a Democrat,
said Obama’s election was
important symbolically. But
in practical terms, she said,
it has been difficult for the
president himself to move
the nation closer to King’s
dream.
“On the ground it has been
a very hard situation for him
to address,” Bertels said.
Hugh Simpson, 57, of
rural Butte Falls, Ore., who
is white, said he will cel-
ebrate by flying his American
flag and talking to his
friends about King. He said
he believes the country has
clearly made progress since
King’s days, having elected a
black president.
But he’s not an Obama
fan — he favors the tea party
movement. In terms of racial
equality, “I don’t think we’ve
had any great change in, like,
two years,” Simpson said.
Some communities in
the South, including around
Atlanta, where schools have
been closed because of a
snow and ice storm, have
decided to make up one of
the days on MLK Day, upset-
ting some African-American
groups.
In 1994, Congress added
community service as a
focus of the federal holiday,
and more than one million
Americans are expected to
participate in 13,000 projects
around the country on the
King Day of Service, said
Patrick Corvington, head of
the Corporation for National
and Community Service, the
federal agency charged with
administering service proj-
ects on the King holiday.
“The focus on service
has allowed for a different
kind of conversation about
Dr. King and what he was
about,” Corvington said. “It
allows all people to connect
with Dr. King in different
ways.”
The new poll also shows
most of the nation in support
of the King holiday. Three-
quarters of those surveyed
this year say King’s birth-
day should be so honored,
with 84 percent of non-white
respondents believing so,
compared to 68 percent of
white respondents. Younger
adults are also more apt to
feel the birthday deserves the
honor, as 81 percent among
those under 50 years old sup-
ported the holiday, compared
to 66 percent among those 50
to 64 and 62 percent among
seniors.
King is the only American
who was not a U.S. presi-
dent honored with a federal
holiday.
