Drug wars: the law strikes back

Keri Hines Regina Banbury Andrew Dinkins Chad Neuman Korey Briggs Austin Samons Staff reports DELPHOS A multijurisdictional drug sting operation in three counties was conducted Friday, rounding up 14 of Delphos most notorious drug dealers on 43 indictments. Law enforcement of the West-central Ohio Crime Task Force that included representatives of various local police agencies, as well as all Tri-County sheriffs offices and prosecutors, joined Delphos Police Chief Kyle Fittro at the wastewater treatment plant, where the tool crib was used as a temporary lock-up. Teams made arrests and brought suspects to the plant for others to transport them to the county jail respective to where the indictment(s) were written. This is a few less people than we rounded up two years ago but these are more problematic people. Taking them out of the equation will be very beneficial to Delphos, All 14 were in custody by 4:30 p.m. Friday. They This is a few and the charges they face less people than include: Phillip L.

them. Allen County Prosecutor Juergen Waldick was on hand and said the indictments are strong enough that he hopes to get the drug dealers in question off the street but its all up to the judges. He said judges discretion was largely removed by the state legislature when new sentencing laws went into effect about a year ago. The Allen County indictments are for trafficking, so we hope to get them off the street for a while but with the new sentencing laws, it becomes more difficult to keep them off the streets. First-time offenders dont go to prison but some of these are repeat offenders and that carries more weight. If you have a prior record, your chances of going to prison are much better, he said. Waldick said large simultaneous manhunts like the one conducted Friday are See DRUGS, page 3

Storm warnings spare village from tornado injuries

By MIKE HOUSEHOLDER The Associated Press storm sirens that provided more than 20 minutes of warning. The twister damaged more than 100 homes and destroyed 13. Yet everyone emerged unscathed. When you look at the path and you look at the physical destruction ... its amazing, Washtenaw County Sheriff Jerry Clayton said Friday. Sometime after Thursday evenings tornado, Deputy Ray Yee was surveying the rubble when a solitary hand rose from debris. He reached for it and pulled out an elderly man who was shaken but able to walk. Thats the best part, Yee said. Every place I went to, I would have thought I would have found somebody laying there deceased or whatever. But, knock on wood, everybody was OK. By midday Friday, authorities had accounted for the entire population of nearly 4,000. Were confident that were not missing anybody, Fire Chief Loren Yates said. The tornado was part of a slow-moving system that also brought large hail, heavy rain and high winds. Gusts downed power lines, sparking fires. Two sirens went off at 5:09 p.m. Thursday. The twister touched down at 5:33 p.m., giving many families enough time to get to safety. Jack Davidson was watching TV when he heard the sirens. He and his wife dashed to the basement. When they emerged, they didnt see much damage at first and thought the storm had spared the area. But one glance across the street

DEXTER, Mich. The twister that took aim at this Michigan village unleashed winds of 135 mph and lingered on the ground for a full half-hour, plowing a path of destruction that stretched for 10 miles. But after the tornado melted back into the clouds, townspeople emerged to a remarkable surprise: Not a single person was seriously hurt. Authorities credited

revealed a different reality: a self-serve car wash had been flattened. Its bad, Davidson said. The pizza shops bad. But the worst damage is to the car wash. Two blocks away, the twister didnt even touch down. I guess we were just lucky we were in the right spot, Davidson said.

Get out of the way!

During the fire call at Ultimate Systems Thursday evening, I saw some pretty scary behavior. You know the old saying, If youre not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. Well, I saw a whole lot of people causing a problem for those trying to provide a solution. It is the law that vehicles are to pull over and stop so emergency personnel can get where they need to be. I couldnt believe the number of cars, trucks, mopeds and golf carts rushing to see what was going on as emergency personnel tried to get to the factory so they could take care of the problem. Pedestrians were also getting in the way and slowing responders down. I understand weve all got spring fever and need some relief but people, this is not the way to spice up your evening. The most disturbing thing I saw was people pushing strollers while walking on THE ROAD, with a perfectly good sidewalk steps away. Volunteer firefighters had to slow down and some even had to stop while oncoming traffic passed instead of pulling over and stopping. The people with the strollers frightened me the most. If they got hit, their kids were going to get hit as well. I was dumbfounded by the lack of respect for those trying to do their job, the law in general as well as for their own and their childrens personal safety.

On the Other hand

I dont know who you were because it was dark but you know who you are. Please make better choices and show more respect for the men and women who risk their lives to save others and their property. How would you feel if in the seconds they had to waste to get around you, someone had died or was seriously injured? Minutes and, yes, seconds count in these situations. I hope you dont mind that if your house catches on fire, I drive slowly in front of the fire trucks so they are delayed in getting there. I wouldnt do that but Im just sayin. The safety and well-being of others has to be more important than satisfying your curiosity. When you are out and about driving and hear sirens, pay attention. When you see an emergency vehicle behind you, pull over and stop. Im betting what they are taking care of is a little more pressing that what you are doing. To you ambulance, patrol-car and firetruck chasers GET OUT OF THE WAY!

Pa. company to move Ohio horse tracks

TOLEDO (AP) A gambling company building casinos in Toledo and Columbus will pay the state $150 million so that it can move its horse racing tracks out of those areas and reduce the competition for customers. Penn National Gaming Inc. plans to relocate its horse tracks to new sites it will build near Youngstown and in Dayton. The deal, announced Friday, also requires Penn National to pay the state about one-third of the profits from video slot machines that it wants to put in the new horse tracks. The company also must pay a $50 million license fee for the video gambling machines at each track. The agreement hinges on whether state lawmakers will give their approval to allowing video lottery machines at all the states horse tracks. A bill allowing the machines already has cleared the Ohio House. Penn National must secure agreements with the organization that represents horse owners, breeders and trainers. The biggest hurdle could be a lawsuit filed by gambling opponents who are challenging whether the state can allow video slots without going before the voters. Penn National, based in Wyomissing, Pa., says it owns and operates 19 casinos in the United States and Canada. It plans to spend at least $300 million on the two new tracks, which it says would create thousands of temporary construction jobs along with permanent jobs at the two sites. The two new tracks would go to areas of Ohio that have lost thousands of manufacturing jobs in recent years.

Elizabeth Winhover, Health Officer Brock Bonifas, Safety Officer Anna Mueller, Historian Kurt Hoersten, and Year Book Officer Rebecca Violet. The next meeting will begin at 7 p.m. Thursday at St. Peter Lutheran Church. If interested in joining, call Sue Hempfling at 419236-6429. The Toledo track is moving 130 miles south to Dayton. The Columbus track is moving 150 miles northeast to the Youngstown area. Dayton has been hit hard by auto job losses. The track there would be built on the site of a shuttered Delphi Automotive plant. The horse track near Youngstown would be built on vacant land in Austintown, just south of the Ohio Turnpike. Ohios horseracing industry has been in decline in recent years, losing customers and money to nearby states with casinos and racetracks with slots or casino gambling. Thats why Ohio tracks have been pushing for video slots. Ohio voters in 2009 approved casinos in Toledo, Columbus, Cleveland and Cincinnati. Department, Delphos Police Department; and multiple state/ federal agencies. The task force also works closely with the Putnam and Paulding County Sheriffs Departments. This task force operates within a multi-county area to combat drugs and major crimes.

I am sure by now you have seen the pictures and read the stories concerning our Gala Celebration that was held last month. Many people looked at this as a culmination, a completion. But nothing could be further from the truth. For those of us associated with the Museum, this was just the beginning. But for the moment lets outline what is in store for our visitors and our on-line friends. To begin with, we have regular hours for the general public and look forward to making appointments for groups. We try very hard to have a sufficient number of trained tour guides available so that we can meet each groups needs. We are open every Thursday from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM and Saturday from 10:00 AM until 2:00 PM. We will not be open for Holy Week next month nor on holidays that may fall on weekends. I might as well tell you the price of admission right up front. The price: you are asked to tell someone about your experience at the museum AND when you return (since you can never see it all in one visit) you are asked to bring someone with you who has not been to the museum before. Dont get me wrong, we graciously accept donations especially since we exist strictly on donations, grants, and fund raisers. We look forward to having groups tour the museum. In fact, there is a group visiting today its a group of Gold Wing riders. They toured our museum many years ago when it was still located in the post office. I am sure they will be surprised when they see it now. Need a program for your service club or organization? Why not take a short road trip to downtown Delphos or if that is not possible we have speakers that can bring the program to your venue. Speaking of venues, during our Gala celebration we were able to seat for dinner almost 200 people and still had room for the buffet tables etc. At that time, people asked if we would consider renting out the space for meetings, family functions, etc. If your group or event is looking for a place to land, come discuss it with us. We are considering allowing this on a very limited basis. It doesnt hurt to ask. So whats next in the way of programming? First, we have completed 99 percent of the replica of the Railway Post Office compartment that was used on the AC&Y railroad and had its terminus in Delphos. This 15-foot car has all authentic equipment. Our plans are in the next

Tornado 1) (Continued from page

couple of months to dedicate the car to a retired Railway Post Office (RPO) clerk, Mr. Donald Fair. Fair was born and raised in Delphos subsequently moved to Lima where he worked the mail train from Pittsburgh to Chicago until they were no disbanded. We are planning on inviting all the remaining RPO clerks from the area when we dedicate the car. These were very special people doing very demanding work. If this is an area that interests you, plan on spending some time viewing many of the videos that show you what life was like working the mail trains. We are so close to unveiling our new web site. Here you will be able to see parts of the exhibits, pictures and artifacts from the collection, and keep in touch with upcoming events. Next week, we will begin planning our next Mayberry Days Celebration. If you were there last year, you know what a fun time everyone had. Our Barney Fife was there to lock you up in our jail and thats when you found out who your friends really were when they paid your fines so you could get out of jail. The one subject that I am getting several calls about is our upcoming escorted trips. The first will be to Nashville, Tenn., on July 11-15. You will spend four nights at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel. Included is your lodging, transportation, fees and tips, a couple of meals, and all your entertainment. Were not only going to see the Opry but well have dinner and a backstage tour to accompany it. Youll never want to leave the Country Music Hall of Fame or the old Ryman Auditorium. Enjoy lunch, a boat ride and a show on the General Jackson riverboat and many more local attractions. Just $799 per person, double occupancy is a bargain when you think four nights at the Opryland Hotel could cost you that much alone.

The teens had been rallied the night before by their coach, and they soon formed a line that began passing large chunks of broken trees to a wood chipper offered by a landscaping company. After the storm, coach Brian Baird had sent a simple text message to players: The village needs you. Someone else left five dozen bagels and two cases of bottled water on Psujeks doorstep.

important because dealers and members of the public might think law enforcement is not diligent. If youre a drug dealer and youre not being arrested, you shouldnt think that means we dont know who you are. You may have dealt drugs just yesterday but well find you, he said. Since May 2010, the Delphos Police Department and WCOCTF have arrested 38 Delphos drug-trafficking defendants on 113 separate

felony indictments. The police department and the WCOCTF will continue to investigate drugrelated offenses within the City of Delphos in an effort to reduce drug abuse/trafficking and all of the spin-off crime it generates, Fittro said.

said its relatively rare to have such a powerful tornado in the state at this time of year. In January 2008, with temperatures in the 60s, tornadoes developed in southeastern Wisconsin. Temperatures topped 70 on Thursday in Michigan. Extra moisture and extra heat certainly contributed to the instability that we had. ... We didnt see this coming, Samson said Friday from the Ann Arbor campus, 10 miles from Dexter. Were still scratching our heads. Two weaker tornadoes were reported in Monroe Countys

Ida Township and in Lapeer County, near Columbiaville, where authorities found damage across a three-mile area. The storm ripped a two-story home from its foundation and damaged barns and vehicles. On Friday, the buzz of chainsaws and the groan of heavy machinery filled the air in the community northwest of Ann Arbor. Families spent the day sorting through the remains of houses that had been turned into splinters.

It is my rule never to lose me temper till it would be detrimental to keep it. Sean OCasey, Irish playwright (1880-1964)

One Year Ago Jefferson needed to rally in the fourth period Thursday night but the rally fell short as the Lady Wildcats went down to the wire before succumbing to the defending state champion Canal Winchester Harvest Prep Lady Warriors. 25 Years Ago 1987 Delphos Boy Scouts have launched a sustaining membership enrollment drive to raise $2,000 by March 31. Ed Kirk, Allen County sustaining membership chairman, presented local Boy Scout committee members with pledge cards Monday evening to kick off the campaign. Among those were Denny Stemen, committeeman, Gerald Kemper, chairman for the Delphos Drive, and Bill Heiing, committeeman. Miller City won the second annual Putnam County League eighth grade girls tournament by downing Kalida 25-17 Saturday at Ottoville. In the second round of the tournament Miller City defeated Fort Jennings 19-15. Also in the second round Kalida edged Ottoville 37-34. Jodi Ricker led Ottoville with 15 and Ortha Knippen added 9. Former Spencerville resident Barbara K. Kill has received the Ohio State Highway Patrol achievement and recognition award at the St. Marys post. Kill was honored service the past year as a radio dispatcher. Kill has worked with the St. Marys post since 1974. 50 Years Ago 1962 Vincent Ebbeskotte, son of Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Ebbeskotte of Delphos, won the award as outstanding showman at the Little International Showmanship contest held recently by the Saddle and Sirloin Club in Plumb Hall on the Ohio State University campus. As well as the top award, Ebbeskotte was also the winner of the swine showmanship contest. The freshman girls vocal ensemble from Delphos Jefferson received a superior rating in the recent district solo and ensemble contest at Lima Senior High School. Ensemble members are Elaine Wisher, Linda Truesdale, Alida Raabe, Florine Gabel, Vanetta Robinson, Linda Dancer, Kathy Giller, Pamela Shaw, Betty Dunn and Dian Broaddus. The two honored girls who have been selected to represent Delphos Jefferson at the 1962 Buckeye Girls State are Diane Brinkman and Janis Thompson. These girls alternates are Doris Gable and Christine Heidenreich. The Buckeye Girls State this year will be held June 16-24 at Capitol University in Columbus. The girls are sponsored through the local American Legion Auxiliary Unit. 75 Years ago 1937 The Commercial Bank of Delphos will observe its 60th anniversary on the evening of March 31. The officers and directors of the bank are making extensive preparations for that evening. A shareholders dinner will be served in the Knights of Columbus rooms on the third floor of the bank building. The anniversary of the organization of bank falls on March 26 but as that date is on Good Friday this year, arrangements were made for holding the observance on the following Wednesday. Harry S. Kauffman, well-known resident of North Cass Street, holder of a 50-year service button, has been granted a pension, which was effective March 1, 1937. He entered service as a messenger on Dec. 1, 1885. He was made a telegraph operator on July 1, 1887, and a block operator leverman on Jan. 1, 1924. For more than 4 years, he was telegrapher on the first truck at the Delphos Pennsylvania station. When he first came, the telegraph office was over the depot building as there was no tower. All arrangements have been completed for the Delphos Civic Club dinner which will be held Thursday night at the Beckman Hotel. One of the problems to be discussed is that of providing some feature to take the place of the Saturday Night Special Feature. Last Saturday concluded the series and the businesses are desirous of starting a new type of attraction.

Obama budget produces 2013 deficit of $977B

By ANDREW TAYLOR Associated Press WASHINGTON A new analysis of President Barack Obamas budget for next year says the deficit scenario isnt as rosy as the White House painted it. Fridays Congressional Budget Office report said Obamas budget would produce a $977 billion deficit next year $75 billion more than predicted by the White House. The nonpartisan CBO said Obamas budget office consistently overestimates tax revenues over the coming decade. CBO predicts revenues on average that are about $120 billion less each year than predicted by the White House. Still, CBO said Obamas budget would generate somewhat lower deficits over the coming decade than the White House predicts. Much of that is due to lower interest costs and less generous cost-ofliving adjustments in Social Security benefits. The forecasting differences arent unusual and generally are caused by CBOs less optimistic view of the economy over the next couple of years. The White House forecasts higher income and corporate profits. Over the coming decade, CBO says Obamas policies would result in deficits totaling $6.4 trillion. For the current budget year, CBO says Obamas policies, if enacted, would generate a $1.25 trillion deficit. Thats $74 billion better than the White House forecast but still represents the fourth consecutive year of trillion dollar-plus deficits. The report is a precursor to the annual budget debate in Congress. House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis., plans to unveil his budget plan next week, which will call for sharply lower spending on federal health care programs, lower taxes than called for by Obama and less money for the day-today budgets of federal agencies than called for in last years budget and debt pact. The House GOP measure wont get anywhere with Obama or Democrats controlling the Senate, however. Expectations are low for any election-year progress on the deficit as Obama and his GOP rivals continue to differ on raising taxes and curbing the explosive growth of popular benefit programs like Medicare.

On April 11, Eugene Pohlman, school bus driver for Delphos City Schools found the body of Rosalie Crider, 46, of Rt. 1, Venedocia, in a ditch. She was alive when found, but died at St. Ritas Hospital about 13 hours later. Warren Sherrick, 32, Elida, who confessed to the murder of the Alpine Village waitress yesterday told officers it was a crime of passion. Sherrick, during a lie detector test, said Mrs. Crider had agreed to run away with him but changed her mind. He said he became angry when she refused to go with him and shot her. He told police, after he shot Mrs. Crider, he dumped her body down an embankment along Bliss Road, drove her car back to Lima and then drove his own car home. Sherrick will be tried in Phoenix, Ariz. for the robbery slaying of tavern owner Louis Taylor. Ohio probably will not have a chance to prosecute Sherrick. Sherrick admitted the slaying of Taylor because, he was the only witness, to the $300 robbery and he had to be eliminated. A companion of Sherricks, William Reed, 27, Lima, also was held in connection with the Taylor slaying. However, police in Phoenix said Reed was charged as an accessory because he was not present at the holdup, only shared in the money from the Green Goose Tavern, Taylor operated. Delphos Herald, June 1, 1962 ********** Thirty-three nurses graduated at St. Ritas commencement Thirty three nurses, including eleven from Delphos, Ottoville and Fort Jennings, will receive their diplomas from St. Ritas Hospital School of Nursing, Lima, during annual commencement exercises. The local and area graduates are: Virginia Lee Williams, Elizabeth Ann Wrocklage, Emogene Catherine Allemeier, Jeanne Gertrude Kaverman, Gloria Lavon Kill, Alfreda Elizabeth Lindeman, Virginia Ann Reindel and Elizabeth Jeannette Miehls, Delphos; Carol Catherine Gorden, Ottoville; Edna Marie Herman and Elizabeth Joann Luebrecht, Fort Jennings. Delphos Herald, Aug. 26, 1955 ********** Old Timers vs. Legion Junior Team With the big annual Old Timers ball game only days away, the Delphos Old Timers Manager, Paul Clinger, has only one thing to say, Those young whippersnappers dont stand a chance. He said, with a slicker like Old King Wulfhorst handling his talented pitching staff, everything is under control. With my guy, Carl Imber, snooping around short their wouldnt be a chance for these kids to avoid hitting into double plays, and for speed on the base paths. I have this young kid I got out of an old refrigerator box, Mel Westrich. Between chews on his tobacco old Paul kept raving about the shape Len Swick is in. He said Len hasnt looked so good since they bought his contract from Vogts Vermin. A talk with Dick Wulfhorst about the mound staff brought forth only the statement, You bat. The local Old timers, will clash with the Delphos League Rotary Junior team in one of the features at the big Delphos Athletic Day next Sunday afternoon and evening at the city recreation field. In addition to seeing a couple of good ball games, you can help in the buying of a new water heater to be installed at the stadium for use by our local grid teams. Delphos Herald Aug. 17, 1955 ********** Railroad speeders come together Injuries were sustained by four employees of the

Local school bus driver spots body in ditch

BOB HOLDGREVE

Pennsylvania Railroad signal and section departments Thursday afternoon when two motor cars on which they were riding were involved in a collision and were wrecked near the overhead about half a mile west of Delphos. C.E. Miller, signal maintainer, sustained a fracture of the right collar bone and received a number of cuts and bruises. John H. Flanagan, assistant maintainer, suffered a badly bruised left foot, injuries to the back and scratches and bruises. A.H. Bonifas leaped from one of the cars when he saw that the collision could not be avoided. He sustained bruises and cuts about the forehead and face. Frank Dancer, section hand, also escaped with minor cuts and bruises. The speeder used by the signal men was considerably damaged, while that used by the section man was not damaged to any extent. Delphos Herald, March 18, 1927 ********** Fast Express new gram model is ready A new Gramm model, the Fast Express, a companion to the Gramm, Fast Freighter, which went into production in January, is announced by B.A. Gramm, president and treasurer of Gramm Motors, Inc. The Fast Express is a 2 1/2 ton chassis low bed, mounted on a 32x6 pneumatic tires, dual rear wheels and rated at a maximum 45 miles per hour sustained speed. It is powered by an 80 horsepower six cylinder engine, is equipped with four forward speeds and has an oversize, full floating rear axle. The radiator is unusually large and a new hood design blends perfectly to the cab. The new truck is now being built at the Delphos plant. It is somewhat in a class by itself. Truck and coach orders received in February, 1927, showed an increase of 400 percent over February, 1926. Of the orders for February, 68 were for Gramm vibrationproof coaches. Another good reason why Gramm Motors is rapidly becoming a most important industry is that the officers and directors are men of known ability, integrity and good business judgement. B.A. Gramm is president and treasurer, Williard J. Gramm, vice president and factory manager, Eugene Lippincott, secretary and counsel and the other directors are Jos. Jettinghoff, Arnold King, H.S. McLeod and H.M. Davies. Gramm Coaches are now in use in all parts of the United States. All the busses for the Great Eastern Lines, running from St. Louis to New York, will be manufactured in Delphos. Half the busses used on the Yelloway Lines between St. Louis and Los Angeles, will also be built here. Delphos Herald, March 18, 1927 ********** Delphos Bending Company makes parts for automobiles Delphos importance in the motor industry is not limited to the actual manufacturing of high grade trucks and coaches. A concern which is one of the most important in the city, and which furnishes parts for most of the high grade automobiles in the United States, is the Delphos Bending Company. This concern for many years manufactured only rough bows for open cars, but with the advent of the closed car, demand for this product has greatly decreased. The company is now producing many finished bows for sport model cars as well as for the ordinary touring car.

Window to the Past

In addition the company is also engaged in the manufacture of additional bent wood products of various types. As a result of their production of these necessities, parts manufactured in Delphos will be found in cars all over the world. H.S. McLeed is president and general manager of the company. Delphos Herald, March 18, 1927 ********** Manager Gorden Gengler lists games for St. Johns The seasons schedule for St. Johns basketball team is rapidly being filled out by manager Gorden Gengler. Up to this time, eight games have been booked, four at home and four abroad. The first three games of the season will be played on the local floor. Glandorf will be here on Nov. 26, and Ohio City on November 30. The locals will go to Decatur for a return game on Dec. 2. Ottawa will come to Delphos on December 10. On Dec. 21, the locals will play at Glandorf. Two games have been booked for January up to the present time, one with Ft. Wayne Central Catholic at Ft. Wayne on January 8 and one at Ottawa on January 14. Manager Gengler is in correspondence with a number of other schools. St. Rose, Lima, one of the favorite enemies of St. Johns High, will likely be booked for two games, one in Delphos and one in Lima. St. Johns Lima, will also likely be taken on for a game or two. Delphos Herald, Sept. 24, 1926 ********** New Director of Youth Center At a meeting of the board of trustees of the Delphos Youth Center, Inc. Wednesday night, Charles Laudick, East Seventh Street, was employed as director of the Youth Center. Mr. Laudick has had extensive experience and training which will aid him in his work as director. While a high school student at St. Johns, he made constant use of the center under the direction of Don Pathoff, then director. He also served nine months as an assistant to Mr. Pathoff. He was in the military service for two years and for one year of that time was in charge of a recreation unit. For the past year he was a student at Ohio State University taking training in physical education. While in Columbus, he also assisted in recreation work at settlement houses and city recreation parks. The Center will be reopened when the schools open in September. He is now engaged in redecorating the first floor of the institution. Delphos Herald, Aug. 11, 1955 ********** Lima man tries out new speedway here As an appreciation for being saved from possible death by the local police, Henry Clay, Lima, left a gift of $15 to be placed in the Delphos City Treasury. At 12:20 Sunday morning, the Lima man drove south on Main as far as the Pennsylvania Railroad. He then decided to try something different in the way of driving and started east on the eastbound track, but soon stalled his engine. He sat in his car, quite unconcerned, when a westbound freight rumbled past him on the north track. Fortunately, eastbound passenger train No. 84, which is scheduled to pass through at 12:33 but does not stop here, was running late. The local police were called and went to the rescue of Henry, it was found impossible to start the car but it was pushed from the track before the fast train passed by. Mr. Clay was released later after posting a $15 bond to answer a charge of drunk and disorderly conduct. He failed to appear and his bond was forfeited.

Titans clinch state berth

By DAVE BONINSEGNA The Delphos Herald zsportslive@yahoo.com BOWLING GREEN Every four years seems to be the Ottawa-Glandorf Titans boys basketball year. In 2004, they won the state title. Four years later, they repeated. This is 2012, so it was fitting that the blue and gold will head to Columbus again. The Titans fought off the Lima Central Catholic Thunderbirds and earned the Division III state semifinals with a 44-38 victory Friday night at the Stroh Center. The Titans and Thunderbirds were no strangers to each other; the teams have hooked up several times in the past years, including a meeting earlier this season that was won by the T-Birds. However, the tussle on Friday night at the Stroh Center had a little more on the line; a Division III Regional title and a trip to the state semifinals in Columbus next Thursday afternoon. LCC may have won the earlier meeting by 12 but that was then and this is now; the teams were neck and neck for 32 minutes. Michael Rosebrock played a big game in key moments all game long for the Titans and none more key than a basket from the low post with 41 seconds left to give the Titans a 40-38 lead. TJ Metzger gave the Titans two crucial free throws with 22 ticks left, giving O-G a 42-38 advantage. Metzger hit the final two from the line to put the game on ice. The Titans were led by Metzger with 19 points; Rosebrock added 15 in the win. LCC was paced by sophomore Darius West with 10 points; the O-G defense held senior Billy Taflinger to just two points in the contest. The contest was tight from the start with O-G going up 7-4 before the Thunderbirds came thundering back to take an 11-9 advantage heading into the second period. LCC started off the second stanza on a 8-0 run and stretched its lead to 16-9 but the Titans recovered on their next two trips downcourt as Metzger delivered on a longrange shot and followed up with a steal and basket to cut the deficit to 16-13 with 5:36 to go before the break. However, both team would give each other fits at the mid-court as the defenses turned up the heat as neither allowed their opponent to up the tempo. The teams went on a nearly 4-minute scoring drought before sophomore Martyce Kimbrough nailed a shot from just inside the arc to give the Birds a 18-13

lead. Metzger would answer the LCC bucket with one better, hitting a long 3 to cut the deficit to two at 18-16 with just under a minute to go before the half. O-G got its first lead of the second half on a Siefker longrange three with just under four minutes to go in the third, making it a 23-22 contest. The momentum swung back and forth more than a pendulum as the T-Birds and Titans exchanged momentum swings; the Titans got their lead up to five on the strength of an 8-2 spurt but LCC had the final swing when John Kidd nailed a 3-pointer with 12 seconds left in the period, taking the Birds into the fourth up 31-29. The impetus continued its swing in the final period. LCC grabbed the first points of the stanza but Rosebrock answered with back-to-back baskets on consecutive trips downcourt in giving the Titans a 38-34 advantage with 2:14 to go. However, the resilient Thunderbirds werent going away quietly. A steal at mid-court on backto-back possessions gave the Thunderbirds a tie at 38-38. However, Rosebrock would strike again for OttawaGlandorf and gave the Titans the lead for good on a stickback basket to make it 40-38.

The Associated Press GREENSBORO, N.C. C.J. McCollum scored 30 points and Lehigh upset Duke 75-70 in the South Regional to become the second No. 15 seed to beat a No. 2 during a wild Friday in the NCAA tournament. The Mountain Hawks were the sixth 15 seed overall to pull off the trick. Norfolk State edged Missouri in the West Regional earlier in the day and No. 13 seed Ohio knocked off fourth-seeded Michigan to add to the madness. Duke dropped its first tournament game for only the second time in the past 16 years and this one occurred just 55 miles from its campus. Coach Mike Krzyzewski and the Blue Devils also lost their opener against 11th-seeded Virginia Commonwealth in 2007. Duke (27-7) had no answer for McCollum, a speedy guard whos a 2-time Patriot League player of the year and the nations fifth-leading scorer. It didnt help that the Blue Devils shot 6-of-26 from 3-point range. Lehigh (27-7) led most of the game, drawing support from North Carolina fans who borrowed brown signs from Mountain Hawks supporters that read Go Lehigh to root against their rivals. The Patriot League champions led most of the first half despite shooting just 38 percent from the field and grabbed the lead for good at the 8:21 mark of the second half when Mackey McKnight made a 3-pointer. WEST REGIONAL No. 15 NORFOLK STATE 86, No. 2 MISSOURI 84 OMAHA, Neb. Kyle OQuinn had 26 points and 14 rebounds, making several key plays in the closing minutes, and Norfolk State held on to stun Missouri. Pendarvis Williams and Chris McEachin each added 20 points for the MEAC champion Spartans (269), who made their first trip to the NCAA tournament a memorable one. They became the first No. 15 seed to beat a No. 2 since fellow conference member Hampton knocked

NCAA Capsules
off Iowa State in 2001. OQuinn had a chance to take some of the drama out of the finish when he went to the free-throw line with 3.8 seconds to go but the 70-percent foul shooter missed both tries. Missouri coach Frank Haith called a timeout with 2.9 seconds left to set up a final play and the ball wound up in the hands of Phil Pressey. He took a couple of hard dribbles and let loose a 3-pointer from the wing that clanked off the back iron as the buzzer sounded. Norfolk State advanced to play No. 7 seed Florida in the third round Sunday. Michael Dixon led Big 12 tournament champion Missouri (30-5) with 22 points and Pressey and fellow guard Marcus Denmon finished with 20 points each. No. 7 FLORIDA 71, No. 10 VIRGINIA 45 Bradley Beal had 14 points and 11 rebounds, reserve Casey Prather scored a career-high 14 and Florida pulled away in the second half to beat Virginia. The Gators (24-10) finished the first half on a 17-4 run to shake off a slow start and get out to a 30-22 lead. They shot 70 percent in the second half, pushing their lead to more than 20 points. Mike Scott had 15 points for Virginia (22-10). Florida, averaging a nationleading 9.9 3-pointers a game, was 4-of-23 from long range but made 24-of-30 from inside the arc. No. 9 SAINT LOUIS 61, No. 8 MEMPHIS 54 COLUMBUS Kwamain Mitchell scored 22 points, including three big 3-pointers, and Saint Louis rode its gritty defense to a victory over Memphis. Mitchell closed the first half by banking in a 3, then nailed two others to help coach Rick Majerus and the Billikens (26-7) overturn an 8-point deficit in the second half. Brian Conklin added 16 points, including five free throws in the final minute to salt the game away. Will Barton had 16 points for the Tigers (26-9).

EAST REGIONAL No. 3 FLORIDA STATE 66, No. 14 ST. BONAVENTURE 63 NASHVILLE, Tenn. Bernard James scored 19 points and Florida State barely avoided a big upset, rallying to beat St. Bonaventure. The Seminoles (25-9) shook off a slow start and won their sixth straight game, including their run to the Atlantic Coast Conference championship last week. They will play sixth-seeded Cincinnati on Sunday in the third round. Andrew Nicholson scored 20 points and Demetrius Conger had 14 for St. Bonaventure (20-12). Florida State used a 16-2 run to take its first lead with 5:15 left on a 3-pointer by Ian Miller. The Seminoles led as much as 60-52 on a dunk by Okaro White with 2:47 left but had to hold on at the end. No. 6 CINCINNATI 65, No. 11 TEXAS 59 NASHVILLE, Tenn. Yancy Gates had 15 points and 10 rebounds as Cincinnati started strong and then withstood a late rally by Texas. The Bearcats (25-10) jumped out to a 16-2 lead while Texas opened the game 1-of-14 from the field and shot 16 percent for the first half. After trailing 31-17 at halftime, the Longhorns attacked. With 3:44 to play, Texas Jonathan Holmes made a layup to tie it at 52 but the Longhorns never took the lead. Gates hit a shot over Clint Chapman with 1:11 remaining to give Cincinnati a 58-52 cushion and the Bearcats hit five free throws in the final 36 seconds. JCovan Brown led Texas (2014) with 19 points. Chapman had 10 points and 14 rebounds. MIDWEST REGIONAL No. 1 NORTH CAROLINA 77, No. 16 VERMONT 58 Tyler Zeller had 17 points and 15 rebounds to help North Carolina beat Vermont in its NCAA tournament opener despite playing without injured starter John Henson. Freshman forward James Michael McAdoo added a season-high 17 points for the Tar Heels (30-5), who pushed ahead by double figures late in the first half and then broke the game open after halftime.

Former Delphos TCWC wrestlers were special guests at the 18th annual awards banquet: left to right, Dylan Kleman (Columbus Grove), Logan Heiing (St. Johns), Curtis Miller (Jefferson) and Gavin Windau (Columbus Grove) graduated from Tri-County in 2006 and are now seniors that all participated in the recent high school state tournament.

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
SUNDAY, MARCH 18, 2012 Because people will be luckier for you in the future then theyve ever been in the past, the months ahead are likely to hold some very unique and pleasant surprises. Make the most of what is being offered. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you get an unusual offer to do something different, youll surprisingly be prepared to make a quick decision. You may not realize that youve been looking for something unique. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Even if youre inclined to act on impulse, youll nevertheless operate at a high level of accuracy and with a definite purpose in mind, even when juggling several jobs. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Dont treat your hunches indifferently. They are likely to stem from knowledge that youve acquired in the past, and will point you in the right direction. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Something might develop that allows you to show the world what a good friend you really are. Its likely to be an incident quite out of the ordinary, but right up your alley. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Chances are you will be inclined to coast unless you are faced with a disruptive development that should be attended to immediately. Youll be up to doing what you must, if it comes to it. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Either due to a causal comment thats made in your presence or something that you make an effort to discover, a profitable concept might flash through you mind. It behooves you to put it to the test. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Although you might be suddenly subjected to some changes brought about by outside factors, youll welcome them. Theyre apt to be exactly what you need. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -Most of your snap judgments could turn out to be far better than any youd have made after an exhaustive study. Its one of those days when your first thoughts will be the best ones. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Give a little thought in advance to some timesaving procedures that you could take in order to have more hours to devote to pleasurable pursuits. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Any activity that is a departure from your usual devices should prove to be very refreshing and enjoyable, especially if undertaken with friends. Do something different; you wont regret it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Because you possess the requirements for success, youll have a yen for accomplishing something worthwhile. Be persevering and youll accomplish something impressive. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Put your mind to solving problems, and chances are youll find an immediate solution to something that has long eluded you. MONDAY, March 19, 2012 You might get an opportunity in the year ahead to become closely involved with someone whose endeavors have always been successful. Dont let an opportunity like this one slip past you; they dont happen that often. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- You could get the opening youve been looking for to cash in a longoverdue debt. It wont necessarily be something material -- it could easily be a mere favor. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Dont hesitate to make a concession to a close friend -- even if its unwarranted -- if doing so means the difference between harmony and conflict. Even small things can mean a great deal. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -Conditions are conducive for doing something out of the ordinary where your work or career is concerned. However, it might require a bit of boldness to pull off. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -It would be foolish to put off giving away something that another dearly wants and that is of little value to you. Selfishness wont help you get ahead in this instance. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Although there may only be a nominal amount of profit involved with a commercial matter, thats not its only benefit. You might gain some impressive bragging rights as well. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Seriously consider a suggestion offered by an old friend who knows your affairs quite well. His or her advice might not make an impact, but it will be sensible and practical. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Opportunities that present themselves might start out a bit thin at the waist, but will eventually grow in girth. With time, your financial position will expand. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -Dame Fortune is likely to smile on you in an arrangement where she has always frowned on others. Make the most of what you have going while she is in your corner. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You should deal privately with a family matter that should be kept confidential. Youll have better luck figuring things out without the input of the peanut gallery. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- When stuck on an assignment that has you baffled, dont hesitate to request advice from someone who has had a lot of experience in the area that is confounding you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Compensation is on its way for something you have earned by your own diligence. The rewards you receive will be in proportion to the effort you expended. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -When you are presenting something to others that is very important, keep your comments purposeful but as brief as possible. Itll make your listeners more attentive and receptive.
