Palestinians submit UN statehood bid

By AMY TEIBEL and MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH Associated Press the deep sense of Palestinian exasperation after 44 years of Israeli occupation. The time is now for the Palestinian Spring, the time for independence, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas declared. The time has come to end the suffering and the plight of millions of Palestine refugees in the homeland and the diaspora, to end their displacement and to realize their rights. He ignored any Palestinian culpability for the negotiations stalemate, deadly violence against Israel, and the internal rift that has produced dueling governments in the

Jefferson hosts Cheer Camp

UNITED NATIONS The Palestinian leader took his peoples quest for independence to the heart of world diplomacy Friday, seeking U.N. recognition of Palestine and sidestepping negotiations that have foundered for nearly two decades under the weight of inflexibility, violence and failure of will. The bid to win recognition of a state in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem submitted over the objections of the U.S. laid bare

West Bank and Gaza, as well as Jewish links to the Holy Land. Some members of the Israeli delegation, including Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, walked out of the hall as Abbas went to the podium. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, addressing the General Assembly shortly after Abbas, said his country was willing to make painful compromises in its quest for peace. But while Palestinians should live in a free state of their own, he said, they should be ready for compromise and start taking Israels security concerns seriously.

Greve used power of pen in Africa

BY STACY TAFF staff@delphosherald.com DELPHOS For most people, choosing a career is something they save for their college years. Even then, they may change their minds several times due to the onslaught of opportunities that come their way. For Megan Greve of Delphos, her course has remained steady since junior high. Having competed in writing competitions over the years and then going on to study Journalism at Ohio University, Greve, 24, has always had a passion for writing. I guess for me, it started in seventh grade when I entered in the Power of the Pen contest, she said. I really enjoyed doing that and Ive always enjoyed writing, so it just kind of developed from there. At Ohio University, I studied magazine journalism. I also had the opportunity to study abroad in South Africa in 2009 and that was a really great experience. During her time in South Africa, Greve made many friends, some of whom encouraged her to visit other parts of the continent. I met some people from eastern parts of Africa and they told me I should go to east Africa because its so much better than South Africa, she said. I figured why not. I was at a time in my life when I didnt really have any responsibilities or obligations, so I figured it was a great time to explore. So I ended up going to Uganda, where I worked for a magazine in Kampala called African Woman. I wrote articles and also worked as a copy editor. Its a womens lifestyle and fashion magazine, which was more or less what I wanted to write, she continued. Im really interested in lifestyle-type magazines and travel magazines. Ive always loved travel

and I would really like to find some work with a magazine that deals with a lot of travel, food and culture. Although she loves the lifestyle genre, Greves body of work includes a variety of others. Ive written sports articles, culture, lifestyles and several others, she said. For example, I wrote an article about antique shopping and one about bone marrow donation. Ive written articles on body types and one called how to make your old car feel new again. I also have one coming out soon with African Woman that was about a local artist over there. I did a little work for a nonprofit organization, too, while I was there, she added. I was their communications manager and I did a lot of writing and edited grant proposals, letters, newsletters and other things like that. See GREVE, page 2

Im sure you all read the council story in Wednesdays paper and perhaps the duck issue caught your attention. I have lived on the east side of the MiamiErie Canal for nearly my entire life. We didnt have ducks when I was younger. Muskrats not ducks. Ive heard the whispers on how they came to be here. You know it only takes two. Theyre kind of like rabbits or gerbils. The numbers can add up quickly. Over the years, theyve moved from one end of the canal to the other and everywhere in between. It doesnt take much for them to settle in. Ive fed the ducks and given stuff to others to feed them. Ive thoroughly enjoyed having the ducks in my backyard on the canal in Delphos. Ive had them nest in my yard, make themselves comfortable in my flower beds, cover my yard with feathers and chase each other around in the spring when theyre feeling frisky. Ive waited patiently for them to cross the road. If it was a mama with babies, I sighed and said, Aaww. Then those babies grew up and so did every other mama ducks babies and pretty soon, here we are with a whole lotta ducks. Now they just kind of take over. They go where they want, do what they want and leave

a mess behind. A few summers ago, we couldnt even use our backyard because of the feathers and duck doo-doo. They trampled everything in their path to our bird feeder and ate our tomatoes. No matter how much you like them, there are just too many. I dont like the options I heard and I hope a few more will be explored. I had someone stop me while I was walking Ringo Friday and tell me they would hate to see the ducks go to a soup kitchen or the likes or be dispatched, the term that was used. I gotta tell you, it kind of freaks me out more. There are at least 140 of them. Left unchecked, there will soon be 200 and Im not going to insult your intelligence by not realizing you know where this is going. I dont know about you, but I dont want 140 of anything in my backyard and thats just this year.

(Contined from Page 1) Greve returned home on Sept. 12, but she still works for African Woman. I work part-with them now, primarily through teleconference, she said. I couldnt find full-time, permanent work over there and I still have student loans to pay off. So now Im back here and Im looking for work. I would like to keep working for African Woman, though. Ill just keep working from home and see how that goes. While going back to live in Africa isnt a reality for Greve, she has a desire to visit again sometime in the future. Ive actually thought about purchasing some property over there, so I have some place to stay when I go back and visit, she said. I definitely want to explore Africa more. The places I want to travel to are too many to name but Egypt and Ethiopia are high on the list. Greve would like others to see Africa as she does. There seems to be a widespread assumption that Africa is all desert and starving people. Some parts are like that but Africa is very beautiful. Uganda is a beautiful country and a very diverse place. Its so different, too, she said. When I wanted to go somewhere, I had to go by van or by motorcycle taxis. The motorcycles were neat because you had to bargain with the driver over the price. Its just an interesting culture and the people are very friendly. I would encourage anyone to go there and see for themselves if they get the chance.

Dear Readers,
With more emphasis being placed on our internet product and economic realities, Delphos Herald, Inc., will change the frequency of its newspaper publication cycle of The Delphos Daily Herald. Beginning Monday, we will publish a traditional print edition five days a week instead of six. Subscribers to the print edition will receive the newspaper before 5 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and before 8 a.m. on Saturdays. The company will continue to expand local news, sports and weather coverage on its website www.delphosherald.com. During the past few weeks, more emphasis has been placed on getting more current news coverage on the free side of our website. Subscribers can get the entire newspaper online with a paid subscription or the print edition delivered to their home by mail or carrier. General Manager Ray Geary said the change was necessary due to rising costs associated with producing the newspaper. Other newspapers throughout the country have reduced their publication days in the past and we reached the point we had to do something to reduce our costs. We felt by eliminating the Tuesday newspaper, we would not have to diminish the quality of our products with reductions of staff, he said. We have spent the last year and a half developing our website and feel it will be a place to go to get current local news, sports, calendar of events and weather coverage on Tuesdays. Our increase in the number of views on our website indicates our customers will adjust to using it for their local news. The Daily Herald will continue to combine its print and web editions to bring you in-depth local news coverage, as well as the state and national news you expect. Current readers subscriptions will be adjusted based on the amount of time those subscriptions still have to run. Subscriptions will be extended one day for each week remaining on the term. The Delphos Daily Herald also publishes The Herald Extra, Good Times, The Business Journal and the TriCounty Guide. Publisher Murray Cohen General Manager Ray Geary Editor Nancy Spencer

Residents in a western Ohio community complain that their water has been discolored for months. Sheila Evans says the water from her tap in Park Layne sometimes is as dark as coffee, has ruined her clothes, and she wont drink it. Deputy director Chuck Bauer with the Clark County Utilities Department says the color is from rust in cast iron water lines that are more than 50 years old. Bauer tells the Springfield News-Sun (http:// bit.ly/niEy7P ) it would be too expensive to replace the pipes in Park Layne, about 11 miles northeast of Dayton. Bauer says officials are flushing the system using a new technique that should eliminate the rust deposits. Ohio Environmental Protection Agency spokeswoman Heather Lauer theres nothing to indicate the discolored water is unsafe. She adds as the utility flushes the system it should smell and taste better and be clearer.

COLUMBUS (AP) Three Ohio House Democrats would face Republican incumbents, and several other Democrats could potentially compete with one another in merged districts unveiled Friday in GOP-drawn state legislative maps. The proposed maps await approval from the Ohio Apportionment Board. The board redraws the states legislative districts every 10 years to reflect changes in population after each decennial census. Unlike the newly drawn U.S. congressional lines that zipped through the Ohio Legislature this week, the General Assembly does not vote on maps for state legislative districts. A majority of the Apportionment Board must OK the lines for all the 99 House districts and 33 Senate districts. The maps were prepared for the board by its staff. The panel will review the maps Monday, then likely vote on them later in the week. Members of the public were also invited to submit proposals. Both chambers Democratic caucuses, the Ohio Campaign for Accountable Redistricting and Illinois state Rep. Mike Fortner submitted their proposals to the board Friday. Fortner, who was the top Republican on Illinois redistricting committee, also submitted a plan for Ohios congressional lines. As they do in both chambers, Republicans hold a majority of seats on the Apportionment Board. The panels members consist of four Republicans Gov. John Kasich, Senate President Tom Niehaus, Auditor Dave Yost and Secretary of State Jon Husted and one Democrat, House Minority Leader Armond Budish. The proposed map merges Budishs district in Cuyahoga County with that of state Rep. Kenny Yuko, a Democrat from Richmond Heights who cant run next year because of term limits. Budish questioned the proposals constitutionality. Never before in Ohios history have voters in state legislative districts been subjected to such a blatant, hyper-partisan gerrymander, he said in a statement. Mike Dittoe, a spokesman for the House Republicans, said the lines were fairly drawn as a result of the population shifts in the state. These legislative districts are a result of a thoughtful and meaningful process that provides for a fair, legal and competitive map, he said.

Cincinnati house marks 1811 quakes it withstood

By STEVE KEMME The Cincinnati Enquirer CINCINNATI In the wee hours of Dec. 16, 1811, an earthquake jolted many of Cincinnatis 2,500 residents from their slumber. In the words of a Cincinnati newspaper called Liberty Hall: It shook the houses, rocked the furniture, opened several partition doors that were fastened with falling latches and threw down bricks from the tops of some chimneys. This was the first in the greatest series of earthquakes in United States history. The other two largest earthquakes occurred on Jan. 23 and Feb. 7 of 1812. Many aftershocks also caused damage. Cincinnati was fortunate to be far enough from the earthquakes epicenter in New Madrid, Mo., that the newly established frontier town suffered no casualties or major damage. But within the New Madrid seismic zone of southeastern Missouri, northeastern Arkansas and parts of Tennessee and Kentucky, the earthquakes caused an undetermined number of deaths and enormous damage. They uprooted trees, caused landslides and floods and sank boats on the Mississippi River. To commemorate the 200th anniversary of these earthquakes, the Betts House in Cincinnatis west end one of the few buildings in the region that existed when those earthquakes struck will host an exhibit called The Big Shake How the 1811-1812 New Madrid Earthquakes Rocked the Ohio River Valley. The exhibit opens to the public today. It will display newspaper articles and letters from that period to tell the story of these earthquakes in the words of people who witnessed them. There will be plenty of material on hand to explain the nature and impact of earthquakes and offer a history of earthquakes in the Ohio. A model seismograph, shaketable demonstrations and a topographical map of Cincinnati will be used to illustrate the science ideas behind earthquakes. The Betts House, the oldest brick house in Ohio still on its original site, survived the 1811 earthquake without any noticeable damage. But the brick summer kitchen building in back of it had extensive damage. A new summer kitchen was built the next year and was attached to the house. People who lived on hilltops in Cincinnati slept through the earthquakes because their houses were on bedrock, Carpenter said. George Heinrich Crist, who lived near the present location of Louisville, Ky., wrote in a Jan. 23, 1812, letter about the death of his daughter in one of the earthquakes. We lost our Amandy Jane in this one a log fell on her, he wrote. A lot of people thinks the devil has come here. Some thinks that this is the beginning of the world coming to a end. Cincinnatis two newspapers, Liberty Hall and the Western Spy, accused each other of publishing inaccurate news accounts of the earth-

STATE/LOCAL

quakes. No one knows how many people were killed in the 18111812 New Madrid earthquakes. Because the New Madrid zone was sparsely populated frontier territory with few newspapers, some deaths were never reported, Carpenter said. If the same series of earthquakes occurred today in the New Madrid zone, they would kill 3,500 people, injure 86,000 and damage more than 700,000 buildings, according to the U.S. Geological Society. About 2 million people would require temporary shelter and 2.6 million households would be without electrical power. Economic losses would total $200 billion to $300 billion.

Fishing is a family tradition

It was 1953 and I was going fishing with my mom and dad. We didnt have the latest rods and reels containing a variety of fluorocarbon, braided or monofilament line. There were no tackle boxes loaded with crank baits, spinner baits, top water lures, jigs, power worms, swim baits, etc. We didnt even have any Kevin Van Dam sexy shad lures like he recently used to help him win $500,000 at the Bass Master Classic. We werent fishing on a big lake from a $15,000 bass boat with a high powered motor, trolling motor, electronic fish finders, and all that kind of stuff. We were fishing in a creek in West Virginia. Our equipment consisted of a cane pole, some line, a hook, a bobber and a can of worms. It wasnt fancy but it sure was fun! There wasnt a lot of technique and skill required to catch fish on that day so many years ago. The toughest part was getting the worm out of the can and trying to get that squirmy worm to stay on the hook. Dad taught me to watch my bobber and that when it went under the water I needed to jerk up on the cane pole to catch the fish that was biting. Sometimes, I jerked so hard that the fish came

Those Were The Days

Pastor Dan Eaton

Going fishing is a family tradition. Speaking of family traditions, my Grandpa Eaton was a horseback-riding circuit preacher. My dad and five of his brothers were ministers. My brother and I are also pastors and preachers of the Gospel. The Bible tells us in Matthew 4:18-20 as Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon (called Peter) and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. Come, follow me, Jesus said, and I will make you fishers of men. For the past 12 years, its been my privilege to pastor Delphos First Assembly of God. We gather each Sunday to worship God and to celebrate the Good News of Jesus. As a pastor, its my job to preach Gods Word and to teach and help people to love and serve God and to love and serve people. I often remind our church family and guests that we dont just come to church we are the church. The Church, the Body of Christ, has been called to be fishers of men. Its a family tradition that Jesus started about 2,000 years ago. So lets go fishing!

out of the water, went flying over my head and landed on the grass behind me. I think I might have come close to hitting mom and dad with some of the fish but they didnt complain. Mom packed us a picnic lunch. She spread out a tablecloth in the grassy area close to the fishing hole and we had some peanut butter sandwiches and lemonade. Mom tried to get me to wash my hands in the creek but I think I can remember the sandwich I ate being flavored by the smell and remnants of fish and worms that were on my hands. Have you ever eaten that kind of a sandwich? It sure tasted good to me! Of course you need to remember, I was 5 years old and that was a long time ago. Ive had the joy of going fishing with my sons many times. Sometimes my wife and daughter fished with us but they never much liked baiting their hook with fishing worms. Weve had some great days and have lots of pictures of the fishermen with the trophies we caught. Whether we caught a lot of fish or not, the joy came from spending time together. I recently went fishing with two of our grandsons and got pictures and movies of them landing some fish.

POLITICS

Do not weep; do not wax indignant. Understand.

Baruch Spinoza, Dutch philosopher (1632-1677)

IT WAS NEWS THEN

One Year Ago Suppers On Us has been going for one year. The weekly community meal started on this date last year to help accommodate local families struggling to make ends meet. In addition to Suppers On Us, Community Unity also includes School Supplies to provide age-group specific school supplies and Free Food On Us. 25 Years Ago 1986 This is football homecoming week in Elida and excitement at the school is climbing to a fever pitch. It can also be felt in the community at large because Elidas homecoming seeks to involve the whole town as it honors its most famous football team, the unbeaten, untied and unscored-upon Bulldogs of 1945-46. A new Steinway grand piano, recently presented to the Gomer United Church of Christ, will be dedicated during Gomers annual Gymanfa Ganu weekend Oct. 4 and 5. The piano is the Gwendolyn (Dolly) Morgan in memory of her parents, Hugh and Elizabeth Jones Williams. Ottoville defeated Fort Jennings in girls volleyball action Monday. Scores were 15-5 and 15-8. Top point servers for Fort Jennings were Michele Gasser, four, Karen Lindeman, three points, and Shelly Broecker, three points. 50 Years Ago 1961 The whine of finely-tune racing motors and the pungent smell of burning rubber will pervade the Putnam County Fair in Ottawa Saturday night as a six-event program of national championship speedway midget auto races is presented over the specially prepared half-mile track. A near-capacity Moms Night crowd watched the Delphos Jefferson Wildcats roll over the Lafayette Wolves, 28-6, for their third straight victory without a setback. The Wildcat defense was airtight and featured several outstanding plays by Dennis Kiggins. Jim Dorman, Ed Porter and Gordon Peltier were all outstanding on the offense. Delphos Chapter No. 26, Order of the Eastern Star met in regular session Thursday night in the Masonic Temple with the meeting in charge of the Worthy Matron, Joan Culp and the Worthy Patron, Charles Daulbaugh. Routine business was taken care of after which the local Past Patrons and Past Matrons were honored. 75 Years Ago 1936 A party of Delphos Republicans are planning to go to Lima next Wednesday to greet Frank Knox, Chicago publisher, candidate for vice president on the Republican ticket. Col. Knox will give a 15-minute speech from the platform of the special Baltimore and Ohio train. The Landon running mate will then be on his way to Cincinnati to speak Wednesday evening. Mrs. Elmer Freund was elected president of the Womens Missionary Society of the Lutheran Church at regular monthly session held Wednesday at the home of Mrs. Charles Raabe, West Fifth Street. Others elected were Mrs. Clarence Blochberger, vice president; Mrs. J. R. Strayer, secretary; and Gertrude Mox, treasurer. Delphos people are beginning to think of cold weather in a serious way. The temperature took a decided drop Thursday after the rain which started late Wednesday afternoon. Light frost is predicted for tonight. The tomato crop is now at the peak in this territory and an early frost would probably cause a great loss for tomato growers.

My friend, Millie and I took a road trip to Columbus Grove last week. You might say it was a nature tour. Millie has a real love of trees so do I. Millie can identify all varieties of trees, whereas I know a maple from an oak but I didnt realize how many oaks there are. We made a special effort to see and study the two huge Baldcypress trees on the front lawn of the VFW Hall in Columbus Grove. The ODNR, Division of Forestry sponsors a program, Ohio Big Trees. We were under the impression that the larger of the two baldcypress in Columbus Grove was the largest of its kind in Ohio until we consulted the internet. We discovered the Champion Baldcypress is in Hamilton County in Spring Grove Cemetery in Cincinnati. It has a trunk circumference of 196 inches, height of 100 feet and a crown of 56 feet, giving it a total of 310 points. If someone would measure the Columbus Grove tree, it might be a good candidate to challenge the Champion.

Champion trees are determined on the basis of points awarded in the following mannerone point for each inch in circumference, one point for each foot in height and one fourth point for each foot in the average crown spread. Total points give you the tree size. The circumference is measured at 4.5 feet above the ground on the uphill side of the tree. We didnt have a tape measure but Millie gave it an arms spread measurement. Her arm spread is 63 inches. A Baldcypress is a Deciduous conifer and considered a native Ohio tree. The baldcypress has miniature needle like leaves that attach to twiglets and these twiglets attach to miniature twigs in a spiraled fashion.

Lets stop ignoring economic reality

By State Representative Lynn Wachtmann Critics of Senate Bill 5 often resort to the argument that public workers are underpaid. Every day, we hear rhetoric about saving the middle class and are told that SB 5 will destroy working families. Although these arguments apparently energize the left-wing base, they have no factual foundation supporting them. A recent report prepared for the Ohio Business Roundtable found data that works in direct opposition to many of the government unions claims regarding the salaries of public employees. The report concluded that, over the course of their lifetime, public employees on average make 43 percent more in compensation than their peers in the private sector. As opposed to earlier research, the roundtable report accounted for factors such as retiree health benefits, retirement pensions and job security. Although public employees earn slightly less in salary than private workers, ries must first be earned in the their benefits after retiring are private sector and then paid by the taxpayers. more than twice as good.

They enrich and hold the soil and offer food and shelter for wildlife. Remember what you learned in elementary science class. Trees take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. Maybe we should start planting more trees along our

highways and in the median strips. It might help take of this global warming problem. Ohio has 10 National Champion trees. They are: Arborvitae, Scioto County; Coffeetree, Lake County; Cottonwood, Delaware County; Elm, Ross County; Hawthorn, Madison County; Magnolia, Stark County; Oak, Hamilton County; Plum, Clermont County; Sycamore, Ashland County and Whitecedar in Muskingum County.

middle classwhich does not work in the public sectoris already hurting in part because of the actions of irresponsible negotiating between government and unions. Senate Bill 5 provides ways for local governments to once again manage their budgets and eases the strain placed upon them by unyielding public unions. This, in turn, will actually save public sector jobs because employers will no longer be forced to choose between providing workers elaborate benefits and dropping them from the payroll altogether, which often unfairly harms young workers. Opponents of Senate Bill 5 will continue launching attacks about how Republicans want to destroy middle class families, while failing to understand that they are greatly to blame for the destruction that is already taking place.

Authors should clearly state they want the message published as a letter to the editor. Anonymous letters will not be printed.

Delphos consumers of water from the Miami & Erie Canal, at a meeting in the City Building voted to bear their share of the expense incident to the building of a flume which will be used to conduct water past the aqueduct over the St. Marys river at St. Marys and to prevent the failure of the water supply in the canal while repairs on the aqueduct are in progress. The city and nearly all of the local industries which draw on the canal for a supply of water were represented at the meeting. It was explained that the cost of the flume will be approximately $1,000 to $1,400 and that it will be necessary for the consumers to meet their cost as the state has no appropriation for any such expense. It was the sentiment of those present that the importance of the canal to all of them, more than justified the expense. Each of the consumers will be assessed 10 percent of the amount paid annually to the state for water rent. Should anything remain in the treasury after the flume is built, it will be prorated to the consumers. A flume 5 feet by 6 feet is to be built. This will supply a sufficient flow of water to take care of all the consumers along the canal and bring a good flow of water all the way to Delphos. Work was started on this flume on Friday and it is to be rushed to completion as rapidly as possible. It will likely be completed in the next two or three days. Haste in its construction was needed by the fact that the storm at the reservoir Thursday night caused the aqueduct to give way and shut off the supply of water.

BOB HOLDGREVE

Window to the Past

This will be restored as soon as the flume is completed. Delphos Herald, July 12, 1895 -----To Investigate Pollution of Streams Condition with regard to the pollution of Jennings Creek and the Auglaize River will be investigated next by the State Board of Health. Service Director C.D. Laing received a letter from the State Board enclosing a copy of a letter sent to Mayor Rudolph Raabe, Ft. Jennings in the reply to a protest which he registered a few days ago with the board. The letter was written by W.H. Ditto, chief engineer for the state board and state that two members will be here next week to make an investigation of the conditions complained of. The protest from Ft. Jennings followed the finding some days back of a large number of dead fish in the river. Sewage from Delphos is said to have been responsible. The conditions are thought to have been due largely to the face that the water supply

in the canal was held up at Spencerville and there was not a sufficient flow to dilute the city sewage. Delphos Herald, July 11, 1925 -----Many Polio Cases Reported More infantile paralysis cases have been reported to the state health department this month then in the first seven months of the year. The dreaded disease reached near epidemic proportions in Summit County, from which 39 cases were reported to the department. It was understood that more than 60 cases have been discovered in the Akron area but the other reports have not yet come to Columbus. Last year, 284 cases were reported to Aug. 26. The peak year was 1944 when 399 cases were reported. Delphos Herald, Aug. 27, 1947 -----Is Constructing New Building A new building is under construction on West Second Street at the rear of Schmidt grocery which will be occupied by Dr. J. W. Clark, local osteopathic physician when completed. The building will be of concrete blocks with an outside covering which will make it most attractive. Dr. Clark purchased the ground from Mrs. T. P, Critchfield recently. Delphos Herald, Aug. 27, 1947 -----The marriage of Dr. John Oakuly to Miss Jane Walbright of Cincinnati, will take place Sat. morning at the Church of the Assumption at Cincinnati.

Lady Musketeers hold Jays lead from start versus Redskins on against Ottoville
By MALLORY KEMPER The Delphos Herald mkemper2011@ hotmail.com FORT JENNINGS The Fort Jennings girls soccer team hosted the Lady Green from Ottoville Friday evening in a Putnam County League matchup at the Fort Jennings Outdoor Athletic Complex. The match was back-and-forth throughout but a Macy Schroeder goal at the 17:50 mark of the second half gave Fort Jennings a 2-1 lead, which they would keep the remainder of the way in grabbing a big PCL triumph. The first half was all defense as neither team could find the back of the net. Fort Jennings got the first look at the goal when Schroeder passed to teammate Marissa Mesker and she tried a shot from about six yards out on the left side but it was right at Ottoville senior goalie Lauren Kramer. The Lady Green quickly got the ball down to the other end as sophomore Monica Sarka took a head shot but Musketeer senior goalie Kelsey Von Lehmden was right there with the save. Schroeder attempted a shot four minutes later, a 10-yard laser right at Kramer; and again with 28:50 on the clock but it was wide right. Sarka dribbled past Fort Jennings defenders and took a shot from 14 yards out on a pass from Lauren Koch but was just left of the goal. The defense tightened up the remaining first half as Ottoville only had one more chance at the goal while the Musketeers had two more chances but Schroeders and Meskers kicks were right at the goal, easy saves for Kramer. The second half was more aggressively played by both teams as they were fighting for a PCL win. At 28:12, Mesker kicked a hard ball from 10 yards out on the left-side corner right at Kramer as she deflected it and then finally controlled it. Three minutes later, at 25:22, Schroeder used her quickness to get past Ottoville defenders and passed to Mesker, who tapped it in from two yards out while Kramer (8 saves) dove but missed as Fort Jennings went up 1-0. Ottoville answered at the 24:24 mark of the second half when Kendra Krouskop was tripped outside the box and sent the ball right in front of the goal to Rachel Turnwald, who was right there for a Lady Green goal. Fort Jennings controlled the ball for the next seven minutes. Schroeder finally made a fancy move past the Ottoville defenders, shot just in front of the goal from four yards and hit the back left corner of the net as Kramer dove but missed as the Lady Musketeers went up 2-1 with 17 minutes left in action. Krouskop got a couple more attempts at the goal but she couldnt get one past Von Lehmden (8 saves) as Fort Jennings improved to 6-2-1 (2-2 PCL) while Ottoville falls to 7-2 (1-1 PCL). Fort Jennings coach Rodney Wagner said they wanted to work on controlling the ball more and possession: We controlled the ball better and had movement up front for a change. We are usually a second-half-of-theyear team and I think this win shows that. Ottoville coach Tim Kimmet knew this match was going to be tough as he thinks every match will be in the PCL this year. He noted that Fort Jennings controlled the possession and it was hard for his team to get a good chance: We struggle with possession and they possessed the ball more than we do, so we never got the chances we needed to at the goal. Fort Jennings ended with 13 shots on-goal while Ottoville had 10. The Lady Green takes on Ada Monday at Ottoville (6 p.m.). The Musketeers return to action on Tuesday as they host Jefferson (5 p.m.). By JIM METCALFE jmetcalfe@ delphosherald.com DELPHOS St. Johns led from start to finish Friday night at Stadium Park, downing visiting St. Henry 35-10 in Midwest Athletic Conference football action. On a short opening kickoff and Tyler Jettinghoffs 11-yard return, the Jays (3-2, 3-0 MAC) had great starting field position at the 39. Two completions in five plays by junior quarterback Mark Boggs (5-of-8 passing, 103 yards, 2 picks, 1 TD): 21 yards to senior David Lindeman and 29 yards to classmate Tanner Calvelage; put the Blue Jays at the Redskin 5. On 1st-and-goal, senior running back Jordan Bergfeld, the tailback (14 rushes, 31 yards) lined up in the Maryland I, took a toss off left tackle and showed good power to the end zone. Senior Josh Rode made it 7-0 at 9:28 of the first period. The visitors had to punt but on the first play by the Jays at the 18, Boggs was picked off by senior Trey Rutschilling, setting the guests (1-4, 1-2 MAC) up at the host 21. A first down and five plays later, junior Alex Post drilled a 26-yard field goal to get them within 7-3 at 4:42 of the first. In an exchange of pints, the Jays won that fieldposition battle, starting its fourth drive at the Redskin 49. Seven plays hence at the 1 keyed on a 22-yard pass from Boggs to Calvelage on 3rd-and-4 Bergfeld swept right end and found paydirt. Rode made it 14-3 with 9:27 showing in the half. On the visitors fourth play from scrimmage, Stahl fumbled the snap, with junior Brock Bonifas recovering at the visitor 40. The Jays took advantage on a 6-play drive. The clincher came on 3rd-and-9 from the 20. Boggs threw a swing pass to the left side to senior Chris Will; he eluded a tackler at the sideline and jetted to the end zone. Rode made it 21-3 with 5:12 remaining in the second canto.

St. Johns senior left tackle Alex Wehri gets a pancake block of St. Henrys Aaron Post as he tries to clear the way for fellow senior Jordan Bergfeld Friday night but the defense wont allow it. The Blue Jays pancaked the Redskins 35-10 in MAC play at Stadium Park. The Jays capped the 21-point second-period outburst with a 10-play, 69-yard drive that ate up 3:27. Boggs twice hit Calvelage (11 yards each) and ended the drive with his legs (11 carries, 44 yards), taking an option left from the 2 and keeping it himself with 35 seconds left. Rode made it 28-3 at the half. Stahl was intercepted on the last play of the half. It was a great start and a great finish of the first half. Unfortunately, we didnt carry it over into the second half, Jays coach Todd Schulte assessed. We talked in pre-game about playing four quarters well and we played the first two well. Maybe we looked up at the scoreboard and saw 28 points on our side. Im happy we got the win but we need to play an entire game. Were working on it. St. Henry counterpart Jeff Starkey was, well, stark about his teams play. I have watched a lot of MAC football and we just didnt seem to come out ready to play MAC football tonight. We didnt match St. Johns intensity at all, especially on the road, he explained. We fall behind and then had a chance on a turnover to make something happen on the road and drop a touchdown pass. I went down from there. Kyle was not his usual self; he made throws he usually doesnt make. Hell learn; if youre a quarterback, you will have games like this. The Redskins, despite a holding penalty that started them on the 10, took the opening drive of the second half 90 yards in seven plays. Junior quarterback Kyle Stahl (14-of-31 passing, 177 yards, 3 picks, 1 score) heated up, completing 3-of-5 tosses on the drive. The biggie was from the 44, finding time to hit Matt Osterholt over the right side behind the defense at the 40 and heading down the sideline, eluding a final tackler at the 5 to end a 56-yard scoring toss. Post made it 28-10 with 9:07 showing in the third. St. Henry forced a punt but on the first play from scrimmage at the 32, Stahls pass was deflected into the arms of sophomore Cody Looser at the Redskin 44. The Jays could nothing with the opening and punted away, with Calvelage pinning them at the 5. On the second play, Stahl, under heavy pressure and ready to go down, made an ill-advised pass that was picked off by junior linebacker Brett Schwinnen, putting the Jays at the Red and White 6. Jettinghoff (12 rushes, 54 yards) ran for five and then Bergfeld made it a hat trick. Boggs pitched to him over the left side but the senior bobbled the ball, never letting it hit the ground. He beat one defender and sped to the pylon for the six. Rode tacked on the final point for a 35-10 edge with 3:04 left in the third.

The closest any team got the rest of the way was a St. Henry drive that began at the 37 and ended up at the Blue Jay 25, where the 12-play drive fizzled on 4th-and-3 as Stahl threw incomplete. St. Henry did get a pick on the next drive, starting at the Jays 30, but their backup offense was stopped on four downs by the second-team defense. Defensively, we did a nice job on Stahl, Schulte added. We didnt put him on the ground enough for my taste but we had people grabbing him, at his legs and in his face. We made it tough for him to get comfortable. St. Johns heads to Versailles Friday night, while St. Henry hosts Marion Local.

Bearcats down Grove in offensive battle By DAVE BONINSEGNA The Delphos Herald zsportsliuve@yahoo.com COLUMBUS GROVE There are two things that the Spencerville Bearcats football team isnt use to doing: passing the football (this season) and beating the Columbus Grove Bulldogs. On Friday night at Clymer Stadium in Columbus Grove, they did both: the Bearcats won a thriller by a score of 42-38, breaking a losing streak to Columbus Grove dating back to 2008. Spencerville ran for 342 yards and just 15 yards passing; however, quarterback Derek Goecke threw for three 2-point conversions to boost the Bearcats to the win. Niko Molina and Austin Lotz ran for two touchdowns each, while John Smith had a 71-yard rushing score and Goecke added one of his own from a yard out. The Bearcats missed two kicking attempts at extra points and relied on the 2-point conversion, which worked perfectly; accumulating six points and providing a big difference in the game. The hosts ran for 191 yards, while Jordan Travis delivered on 219 passing yards, completing 21-of-25 passes and one interception. Travis ran in one from a yard out for the first score of the game; Trent Kerns and Wade Heffner had two each; and Zach Barrientes caught a 26-yard pass for a score in the Bulldog effort. Columbus Grove struck first on their second possession of the game, using a 9-play drive, highlighted by a 35-yard catch by Derek Rieman to give the hosts the ball on the 11. Three plays later, Travis called his own

number from one yard out for a 6-0 Columbus Grove lead. The extra point was missed. On the Bearcats next touch of the ball, they answered right back. On the third play of the drive, Smith broke loose for 71 yards; nonetheless, just as the Bulldogs did, the extra point was missed and the game was tied at 6-6 with 47 seconds left in the first quarter. Columbus Grove answered right back after just three plays. A triple dose of Barrientes receptions from Travis, one from 15 yards, 21 yards and the final blow from 26 yards, gave the Bulldogs the lead right back; after a successful extra point, it was 13-6 with just seven ticks left on the clock in the first quarter. However, on this night, the scoring came often as the guests delivered right back, using just 3:30. The Bearcats found the end zone again, this time on the strength of a 43-yard Molina run that brought the ball to the Grove 4. Lotz finished it off with a 1-yard bolt to make it a 13-12 contest; again the extra point attempt was missed. The Bulldogs caught a break on the ensuing kickoff as their feline foe was hit with a personal foul, giving Grove the ball on the Spencerville 35. Four plays later, Kerns was in the end zone and the home team was ahead by a count of 20-12. The momentum seemed as if it was about to swing Columbus Groves way as the Dogs grabbed the kickoff at midfield. But in this game, as soon as the momentum went one way, the impetus was like the wind changing directions. Goecke picked off a Travis pass to give the ball right back to the Bearcats at their own 17. Goecke and the Cats took advantage and 83 yards

later, Lotz took the ball in for a score, cutting the Grove lead 20-18. The guests elected to go for two and Lotz caught a Goecke pass to tie the game at 20-20. On this kickoff, the visitors fell on the pigskin and had the short field. Lotz led the charge on the drive with a 40-yard gain. Three plays later, Goecke took it in from a yard out to give the guests the lead. The Bearcats went for two and it worked, taking a 28-20 lead just before the break. To start the third canto, the Dogs defense delivered a 3-and-out and on their first possession of the half, they marched 57 yards in 14 plays with a steady diet of Wade Heffner and Kerns, with the latter finishing the job from a yard out to make it 28-26. The Bulldogs failed on a 2-point conversion. Spencerville used its next touch of the ball to increase its advantage. Daniel Binkley got it started on a 42-yard kickoff return to the Bulldogs 47. Goecke called his own number for the first three plays and Molina finished the drive off with a 5-yard run, making it a 34-26 score with 2:30 left in the third after a failed conversion attempt. Grove took its next drive 61 yards in 10 plays, using 4:31 off the clock, with Rieman making a remarkable catch on a 4th-and-10 to keep the drive alive. Heffner finished it off with a 7-yard run as once again the home team got to within two at 34-32; again, the 2-point attempt was no good. The Grove defense held its opponent to a 3-and-out, forcing a punt. Rieman again grabbed the spotlight, running the punt back 60 yards to the Spencerville 11. Three Heffner rushes later, the Bulldogs had the lead at 38-34.

However, this night, the last score belonged to the visitors. Spencerville got the ball on its own 42 with just over five minutes to play; the series ended on a Molina 14-yard run through the Grove backfield and into the end zone. After another 2-point conversion, the Bearcats had a 42-38 lead. However, the Bulldogs had one last breath and again Rieman came to the rescue, making a circus catch on a 3rd-and-16 play. On fourth down, Travis fumble the ball but regained possession and heaved it into the end zone; alas for the hosts, the ball fell incomplete as the Bearcats hung on. Molina finished with 145 yards on 15 carries, while John Smith added 91 yards on eight carries and Lotz 65 yards on 16 attempts with 3 touchdowns. We got our butts kicked, said Columbus Grove coach Scott Palte. They took it to us on both sides of the ball and played a great game. Heffner paced Columbus Grove with 83 yards on 15 carries, while Jordan Travis completed 17-of-26 passes for 226 yards and one pick. We thought this week if we played the way we have been playing, we might have a chance to compete with a team like Grove, said Spencerville coach John Zerbe. For us to do this tonight at their stadium is a huge accomplishment for us. Spencerville (4-1, 3-1 NWC) visits Lima Central Catholic Friday in NWC action. Grove (3-2, 2-2 NWC) hosts Evergreen in non-league action.

OHIO DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES CENTRAL OHIO Griggs Reservoir (Franklin CO.) - Largemouth and smallmouth bass are being caught in this reservoir in Columbus. Largemouths can be caught on spinner baits, crankbaits, or plastic tubes. Smallmouths are becoming active along rock outcrops, north of the island and below the dam; use crankbaits in a crayfish pattern and spinners. Crappie fishing will improve as water temperatures decrease; target submerged wood using minnows or jigs suspended by a float. Hoover Reservoir (Delaware/ Franklin counties) - Catfish are still being caught in the north end; use shrimp, nightcrawlers or prepared baits for the best yield. Saugeye are starting to get active. Troll spinners and worm harnesses along points and across flats leading to deeper water, keeping the bait very close to the bottom; early morning and evening bites can be good. Crappies are still in deeper water but will move shallower to feed as water temperatures decrease; use minnows and jigs around woody cover. NORTHWEST OHIO Charles Mill (Richland Co.) - With cooler temperatures, hybrid-striped bass fishing should pick up; try fishing the bottom with chicken livers or fishing 3 feet down using slip bobbers. Anglers are also catching 14- to 18-inch catfish using nightcrawlers, shrimp and chicken livers. For best results, try anywhere there is some current. Shelby #2 (Richland Co.) Saugeye are being caught in this 27-acre reservoir. These fish are 14-16 inches in length and are being caught on twister tail jigs; the morning and evening seem to be producing the best catches. Nettle Lake (Williams Co.) - This is one of only a few natural lakes in Ohio. Bluegill and crappie fishing is expected to be good; try fishing in 5 feet of water using wax worms in order to catch these fish. The boat launch channel is likely to be a productive spot. NORTHEAST OHIO Tuscarawas River (Tuscarawas Co.) - Despite high, muddy water, anglers are still catching channel catfish; tightlining on the bottom with stink baits, nightcrawlers and chicken livers should work. The cats are running as large as 17 inches and longer. Anglers are strongly encouraged to contact local bait stores for details on fishing conditions. Berlin Reservoir/West Branch Lake (Portage Co.) - Both lakes are starting to produce bluegill and crappies for anglers willing to fish on the cooler nights. Decent-sized fish are being taken from deeper pools along the bridges and near the abutments; minnows are working well for targeting crappies, while bluegill are biting on nightcrawlers and maggots. Anglers looking for channel catfish can also find success in these two bodies of water. Find free, downloadable maps and fishing tips at www. wildohio.com SOUTHEAST OHIO Ross Lake (Ross Co.) Anglers have had success fishing for largemouth bass. Fish in the 10- to 15-inch range have been reeled in on rubber worms and top-water lures; fishing has been most successful in the more shallow parts of the lake. Electric motors only at this 143-acre lake. Muskingum River (Coshocton/Morgan/ Muskingum/Monroe/ Washington counties) - Fishing for catfish has still been successful, with channel cats being caught in the 16- to-26 inch range; try live and cut shad and skipjack. Flathead catfish can also be caught using live skipjack, shad and goldfish. Sheephead have been caught using hard crawdads and white twister-tails

with a minnow. Opportunities for white bass and sauger should start increasing; try using white or yellow twister-tails with a minnow. Concentrating efforts at the various dam tailwaters should be the most productive this time of year. Lake Vesuvius (Lawrence Co.) - Anglers have had some success fishing for largemouth bass in the early mornings and late evenings using buzzbaits, crankbaits and 4- to 6-inch pearl or white worms. SOUTHWEST OHIO Buck Creek State Park (Clark Co.) - Channel catfish are being caught using chicken livers, cut bait, or earthworms fished slowly along the bottom and into deep pools. Fishing is good near the mouth of Buck Creek; keep the bait greater than 10 feet deep. Cowan Lake (Clinton Co.) Channel catfish are being caught on chicken livers, cut bait, shrimp or earthworms; cast from the pier area and keep the bait off of the bottom and about 3-6 feet deep. Grand Lake St. Marys (Auglaize/Mercer counties) Channel catfish are being caught by boat anglers while drifting near Safety Island and Windy Point Pier. Use enough weight to keep your bait near the bottom; best baits include shrimp, cut bait and chicken livers. OHIO RIVER Brown Co. - Flathead catfish have been hitting cut baits, chicken liver and nightcrawlers fished on the bottom. For smallmouth bass, try tube baits or crankbaits. Hybrid-striped bass have been caught using a jig and twister tipped with a minnow. Washington Co. - Flathead and channel catfish have been reported at a good catch rate. Anglers are catching channel cats on cut bait and nightcrawlers fished tight-line on the bottom; flatheads are being caught on live shad, large suckers and goldfish. Catfish success is best through the night and in the early morning before daybreak. A few largemouth, smallmouth and spotted bass are being caught; try using plastic worms/tubes that are black-, pumpkinseedand watermelon-colored, as well as white and chartreuse spinner baits that are 1/8- 1/4 ounce. LAKE ERIE Daily Bag Limit Regulations to Remember: Lake Erie walleye - 6 fish, with a minimum size limit of 15 inches; Yellow perch - 30 fish per angler on all Ohio waters of Lake Erie; Steelhead 2 fish per angler with a minimum size limit of 12 inches; Lake Erie black bass (largemouth and smallmouth) - 5 fish and a minimum size limit of 14 inches. Western Basin: There have been very few walleye reports recently; the best have come from the area around Kelleys Island Shoal. Expect walleye fishing to improve as water temperatures drop and migratory walleye move back towards the west from the central basin. ... Yellow perch fishing continues to be good when weather allows. The best areas have been N of West Sister Island, around Niagara Reef, between Green Island and Rattlesnake Island, off of West Reef and off of Ballast Island, especially using spreaders with shiners (emerald or golden) fished near the bottom. Central Basin: The walleye have scattered offshore of Ashtabula and Conneaut and not many boats are targeting walleye, so no report is available this week. ... Excellent yellow perch fishing has been reported at 43-55 feet N/NE of Gordon Park, 43-53 N/NE of Wildwood State Park, 45-50 NW of Fairport and 60-62 NE of Ashtabula; perch-spreaders with shiners fished on the bottom produces the most fish. Anglers have been using golden shiners when emerald shiners are not available. A few fish have been caught off the Mentor Headlands breakwall; mornings and evenings have been best. ... Fishing for white bass has been slow off the Eastlake CEI and Mentor Headlands breakwalls. For boat anglers, fishing has been good in the Cleveland area; look for gulls feeding on schools of shiners at the surface. The white bass will be below the shiners. ... Anglers are catching channel catfish off the Mentor Headlands breakwall at night using nightcrawlers, as well as along the Grand River at the St. Clair Street bridge. ... Anglers are catch a few steelhead trout in the Grand River off the Mentor Headlands and Fairport Harbor breakwalls using small spoons and jigs tipped with maggots, as well as in Euclid Creek at Wildwood State Park. The water temperature is 63 degrees off of Toledo and 67 degrees off of Cleveland, according to the nearshore marine forecast. Anglers are encouraged to always wear a U.S. Coast Guardapproved personal flotation device while boating.

Dan Eaton stepped up to serve

mford@delphosherald.com

BY MIKE FORD

DELPHOS Whether drafted or enlisted, Americans of differing walks of life have served their country in battle. Like many others, one local man was drafted and later received orders for Vietnam. He was prepared to serve as a team leader in that nations jungles but extenuating circumstances prevented him from doing so. Dan Eaton, 63, had attended college but his studies were interrupted by a medical challenge he did not know would return. He

was also a newlywed when Uncle Sam knocked at his door in 1968. His wife, Janie, was expecting the couples first child but they didnt know it yet. Because he had a budding family at home in West Virginia, he wanted to serve his time and return. So, he declined the U.S. Armys invitation to attend officer candidate school. He later received orders to non-commissioned officer school at Fort Knox, Kentucky. I went through basic and Advanced Individual Training at Fort Knox and, at that point, we already knew we were going to be

in reconnaissance. When I went to NCO school, they were preparing us to go to Vietnam. Our role was to be in a small armored track vehicle, so I would have been the team leader taking a small crew into the jungle. I made E4 in four months and would have been an E5 or E6 by the time I would have gone to Vietnam but I didnt get to complete the training, he said. I was on the verge of finishing NCO school and had orders for Vietnam waiting when I came down with another serious medical issue. I was prepared for Vietnam

but I never went. They held my orders for a few months while they figured things out and, at one point, a captain looked through my records and said I should have never been drafted in the first place. I ended up being honorably discharged for a pre-existing medical condition. Eaton learned his bride was in labor before his discharge was approved. He caught a bus from Kentucky to West Virginia and got home in time for his sons arrival. While home, he was notified that he would be discharged, so he returned to Fort Knox for processing. He said he was somewhat disappointed, having invested much sweat and passion preparing to serve as called upon. What military experience I did have gave me a deeper appreciation for life and a bigger, broader view of the world. I was grateful to be alive and come home to my wife but there was a part of me that was disappointed. We had orders for Vietnam and the gung ho part of me was ready, he said. I was hoping to not get killed but I expected to go and was prepared for it, though I didnt want to go. I didnt want to play the hero but I wasnt going to be a coward, either. Eaton was in the Army for less than a year but saw how things were inside the military during a tumultuous

Pastor Dan Eaton

time in our nations history. For us, basic training was tough but each phase of training became more difficult than the last one because they were preparing us, mentally and physically, to go to war. We had roll call every morning and there were guys who werent there. They had gone AWOL because they were scared they were going to die. We had guys who were there because they didnt want to go to prison when the judge gave them the choice of being put behind bars or serving their country. We also had drug issues; a lot of the guys coming back from Vietnam had smoked weed when they could. It was a real sad time for the country and for the military, he said. Today, when you see someone in uniform, you respect that but back then, we were treated like we were the enemy. When you got to the airport or boarded a bus, you might be hit or spat on but that never happened to me. It was tough because, whether you were drafted or enlisted, you were willing to go serve your country and quite possibly die, yet inside your own country, you were treated like you were the enemy for doing it. It was a strange time.

Govt paid $600 million in benefits to dead people

WASHINGTON (AP) The federal government has doled out more than $600 million in benefit payments to dead people over the past five years, a watchdog report says. Such payments are meant for retired or disabled federal workers, but sometimes the checks keep going out even after the former employees pass away and the deaths are not reported, according to the report this week from the Office of Personnel Managements inspector general, Patrick McFarland. In one case, the son of a beneficiary continued receiving payments for 37 years after his fathers death in 1971. The payments totaling more than $515,000 were only discovered when the son died in 2008. The government has been aware of the problem since a 2005 inspector generals report revealed defects in the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund. Yet the improper payments have continued, despite more than a half dozen attempts to develop a system that can figure

out which beneficiaries are still alive and which are dead, the report said. It is time to stop, once and for all, this waste of taxpayer money, it said. Office of Personnel Management spokesman Edmund Byrnes said he could not immediately comment on the findings. But the report said OPM Director John Berry agrees that stopping the improper payments should be a priority. There are about 2.5 million federal workers who receive over $60 billion in benefit payments from the program each year. Federal officials have tried matching the funds computer records with the Social Security Administrations death records, checking tax records and improving the timeliness of death reporting. OPM has also sampled its records of all recipients over 90 years old to confirm whether they are still alive. In 2009, there were more than 125,000 recipients identified as over 90 and about 3,400 over 100 years old.

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
SUNDAY, SEPT. 25, 2011 You may have more opportunities to increase your material worth in the year ahead than youve had in a long time. When you go to work, do not hesitate to ask for remuneration that is equal to your skills. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Others might be influenced by outside appearances, but not you. Its one of those days when your probing instincts will uncover great possibilities for success. Use what you find. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Outside involvements with friends will not only brighten your day, but your sunny disposition will cheer up everybody as well. Dont deprive others of your companionship. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If something develops that could be good for you, Lady Luck will do all that she can to push you out in front of the pack. Dont be intimidated by all the talent you find yourself up against. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- It behooves you not to ignore all the creative ideas and concepts you get. Even if you dont have any use for them now, put them on paper so that you can refer to them in the future. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A person with whom you have loving, emotional ties is apt to bring something quite nice into your life. Happily make the most of it. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- An arrangement in which you serve in close conjunction as either a partner or a teammate will prove to be quite successful for both you and the other parties. Believe to achieve. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Be wary of any condition that looks to make a quick killing for you. Although there is money to be made, you must do it the way youve always done so: the old-fashioned way. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -Youre likely to have an undefined quality about you that is quite pleasing and which will make you well received wherever you go. This is the wrong day to hide your light under a bushel. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Maintain high hopes and be persistent in your endeavors without being phony. Even if everything isnt perfect, youll end up satisfied. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Beneficial trends are developing that could push you into thinking big. Dare to be a dreamer and turn wishes into realities. With the right attitude, you can make the impossible funpossible. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your material prospects look exceptionally good. Go ahead and team up with that person who has previously proven lucky for you. Its a combination thatll work once again. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -This is one of those days where being positive and optimistic about life can enhance most anything you do. Keep negative thinkers at bay so that they cant influence you otherwise. MONDAY, SEPT. 26, 2011 Provided you dont unhinge helpful alliances, a resurgence of your independence is possible once again in the year ahead. Before you cut anybody loose, however, make sure its to the advantage of yourself and your colleagues. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you are too indecisive, you might let a friend, associate or family member take it upon himself or herself to make a big decision for you. Dont blame the person who does so if you dont like his or her choice. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- A big, urgent responsibility that youve been artfully dodging in hopes that someone else would do it, is likely to be dumped in your lap. You and your lap asked for it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you refuse to go along with the majority, you are likely to create a lot of unnecessary dissension among your peers. Smile and be a part of things instead of being obstinate. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- At work you are more likely to be tripped up by your own poor choices than you would be by any opposition. Subdue all erratic inclinations and eschew carelessness. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A lot of time and effort on your part could be wasted if your strategies are poorly planned or executed. It is important to establish a game plan that you know will work. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If the money isnt already in your bank account, dont think you can pay for something pricey without causing some big problems. Base your calculations on sure things. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Do not assume to know what your mate would want when it comes to selecting something both you and she or he would use, especially if its a big purchase. Check with your better half first. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You should take extra precaution when working with tools or materials that youre unfamiliar with. In fact, double-check the instructions before you embark on your work. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A situation that has pronounced elements of possible failure attached to it should be checked very thoroughly before you get involved. It could create some serious problems. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -If you are considering doing some refurbishing around your place, study your plan before drastically changing anything. Impulsive action might not wear too well. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Be extremely selective to whom you go for advice. If you check with someone who knows less than you do, you are likely to compound your confusion. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Before making a large purchase, analyze your financial position very carefully to make sure it has the necessary elasticity to handle the financial stretching. Subdue any impulsive spending.
