The afterschool program will be held from 4-5 p.m. on Oct. 25. Activities planned for the hour are a parade through the library, slightly spooky stories, crafts, games and snacks. Children should arrive at the Activity Room in the main library. After the parade, the group will walk to the First Edition building and at the end of Mike Ford photo the program, return the children to the library.

Who let the dogs out?

Only a person who has no clue who I am well, millions, really wouldnt know that Im a dog lover and animal lover, really. (I like the ducks. Theres just too many.) In another lifetime, I would be a veterinarian or a zookeeper or something to do with the care of animals. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. I thoroughly enjoy the companionship I share with my dog and the pleasure my husband I get from being dog owners. I also want everyone else to enjoy my dog, too. I dont want him to jump on people (Jack Russell, hello) or make a nuisance of himself. We dont feed him people food so he doesnt bother people when its time to eat. Of course his sister got people food and we learned from our mistake. We took Ringo to classes and still work with him on his commands. Some days he works us. I wont fib and say he hasnt misbehaved or jumped on someone or made a pest of himself. He has. Hes a puppy. Hes also ornery as all get out. Sometimes it just oozes out of him. He gets this little gleam in his eye and cocks his head ever so slightly as he pins you down with his blue-black eyes. This is all the warning you get that somethings going to happen. On two occasions now, one of us and our little guy have been confronted by someone elses dog in our own yard while Ringos on a leash. A dog is a really big responsibility time,

(Continued from page 1) So well widen it. That way, next year, if we get the public works Issue 1 grant we applied for, it will be ready to go, he said. Berquist added that right of way is restricted, so the road can only be widened, right now, where right of way allows it. The road in front of US Bank is only two-lanes and the city owns the land in question. Berquist said what will be added to the side of the road is just a 4 1/2 foot strip. The city installed sidewalks on Elida Avenue a couple years ago with a grant from the Ohio Department of Transportation. This past summer, the city also spent $19,000 to tar and chip several roads in town and installed sewer lines in the Menke housing subdivision on W. Lincoln Highway and along Erie Street. Both lines were paid for with 80/20 matching grants. The city was responsible for the lower end of the match and engineering costs, bringing taxpayer total for the Menke project to $23,719 and the Erie Street jobs local cost was $24,022.

money and effort. They are dogs and we are the masters. That means its up to us to teach the dog manners and a cute trick or two along the way and ensure their safety, health and well-being. That also means they stay on their own property. We have had a dog for almost 14 years and have never just opened the door the let one of them out, unleashing them on people who perhaps dont like dogs or just dont like someone elses dog in their yard or bothering their children or animals. Its a good neighbor, courteous thing. Its also safer for the dog. That way theres no chance of it getting hit by a car or injured in some other way. I know its hard to believe that everyone else doesnt love your dog as much as you do. I am surprised by this on occasion myself. For whatever reason - because its the right thing to do, because you love your dog, because you like me whatever; please fellow dog owners, keep em on a leash.

The following is the report concerning construction and maintenance work on state highways within the Ohio Department of Transportation District 1, which includes the counties of Allen, Defiance, Hancock, Hardin, Paulding, Putnam, Van Wert and Wyandot. This report is issued each Thursday begin-

Homeless beating defendant found guilty in shooting

Ballroom with a Twist at NPAC

By ED GEBERT Staff writer VAN WERT There is little as exciting on stage as the power, the energy and the magic of dance. On Sunday, Ballroom with a Twist hits the boards at the Niswonger Performing Arts Center, bringing a variety of dancing as well as some featured performers from televisions Dancing With the Stars, So You Think You Can Dance, and even American Idol. Randi Lynn Evans was a contestant on Season Five of So You Think You Can Dance. I cant say enough about it. Its a great show, she declared. Whats neat about it is I think you get a little bit of everything... Theres never a dull moment. I think youll walk out of there feeling like, Wow! That was a great night! Im so glad I saw that! Evans is in her second year of the stage show, but it was the Fox television series that put her career on the map. Born and raised in Utah, Evans did the whole New York thing as a dancer, but on the third year of trying out, landed a spot on So You Think You Can Dance in 2009. That kind of took my world and flipped it upsidedown, she remembered. It was very surreal. All of a sudden you walk out and people know your name, and they start recognizing you and congratulating you. Its just so bizarre. But you get that platform to share what you do and what youve been working on your entire life. Its a really neat experience. Definitely once in a lifetime, and one Ill never forget. Although she said that it is hard to explain the experience to someone who has not lived through it, Evans has company on the tour who understands. From cast members of Dancing with the Stars, So You Think You Can Dance and American Idol, there is a sense of family. Evans explained, Being on a reality show is very strange, and I think its one that you cant explain in words to anybody unless youve gone through it. So I think we definitely bond in

STATE/LOCAL

CINCINNATI (AP) An ex-soldier from Kentucky who pleaded no contest in an Ohio homeless mans beating has been found guilty of reckless homicide in a womans shooting death. A Hamilton County Common Pleas jury in Cincinnati on Friday found 25-year-old Riley Feller guilty of two counts of reckless homicide and a weapons charge.

Ohio health dept fixes criticized smoking report

COLUMBUS (AP) The Ohio Department of Health has corrected a report on the impact of the statewide smoking ban following questions by a state senator. Director Theodore Wymsylo says smokers and non-smokers were flipped in a chart showing how frequently theyve visited bars since the ban took effect in 2007. The graph now shows that 40 percent of current smokers who were surveyed say they visit bars less often, while about 7 percent of non-smokers say they go more often. Republican Sen. Bill Seitz of Cincinnati and the bans opponents have seized on the report, saying its flawed and its executive summary omitted certain figures.

Ballroom with a Twist hits the boards at 3 p.m. Sunday at the Niswonger Performing Arts Center, bringing a variety of dancing as well as some featured performers from televisions Dancing With the Stars, So You Think You Can Dance, and even American Idol. that way. Weve been through the chaos, and all the work, and all the auditions, and all that craziness, and were finally on the other side. So we all can relate. But were all really so grateful because in the end its brought us all together, and were all doing this show. Things have a way of working themselves out into great times! Among those in the cast are American Idol contestants Gina Glockson from season six and David Hernandez of season seven. The talent impresses even Evans. The people that I work with are just out-of-thisworld-amazing, so Im a pretty lucky girl! she quipped. Evans is particularly proud that although she is by trade a contemporary dancer, she has worked her way into ballroom dancing numbers in the show. Ever since I did it once on So You Think You Can Dance, Ive been obsessed with it. I worked really hard to kind of perfect that. So Im lucky. Im already doing what I set out to do. Theres definitely a lot of room for improvement, but at least Im on my way! she shared. The energy and fun of Ballroom with a Twist comes to Van Wert for a 3 p.m. show on Sunday at the Niswonger Performing Arts Center. Tickets are still available at the NPAC Box Office. If you are coming to the show, you should know that you are in for a night of excitement, warned Evans. Its almost like a roller coaster. Its not so overwhelming in your face. Its fun. Its emotional. Its exciting. Its a mix between so many different styles of dance, theres never a dull moment.

Pa.-based tank maker in Ohio fined nearly $4M

COLUMBUS (AP) Candidates for office say a $100 fee for politicians who want to march in an Ohio Columbus Day weekend parade is unfair, but a civil libertarian says they may have to live with it because the event is privately run. The money helps with the cost of sweeping up after campaigners, who tend to hand out candy and political materials that result in litter, said organizers of Sundays Italian Parade. They also told The Columbus Dispatch that politicians should pay for the privilege of getting their faces before voters along the parade route just weeks before Election Day. Its bargain-basement advertising for the last parade before the election, said Deb Roberts, the chairwoman of the parade. None of its other participants are required to pay anything, the Dispatch reported. That annoys Jim OGrady, a candidate for Franklin County Municipal Court judge, who plans to march with his family, including his 4-year-old daughter, in a wagon with bags of candy. I dont know how they can target any single entrant when anyone in a parade is using it to get their name out, OGrady said. I think it would be more fair if all the entrants were required to pay, added Barbara Pfeiffer, also running for a Municipal Court judgeship.

Candidates whine about parade fee

FREMONT (AP) Federal regulators have issued a $3.9 million fine against a Pennsylvania company with an Ohio plant that makes tanks to store and transport anhydrous ammonia used by farmers. The U.S. Department of Transportation says the companys tanks didnt meet federal hazardous materials safety standards. American Welding & Tank in Fremont makes the tanks. The company is based in Mechanicsburg, Penn.

Dont let yesterday use up too much of today. Will Rogers, American humorist (1879-1935)

One Year Ago A new 7-food-wide sidewalk is under construction at Garfield Park with the cooperation of the Marbletown Festival Committee and the Delphos Stadium. The new sidewalk will extend from the parks entrance near South Clay Street and lead to the shelterhouse erected last year with festival funds and volunteer labor. 25 Years Ago 1986 Twenty-two area business leaders met this morning at the Golden Nugget Restaurant for a presentation by the LimaAllen County Economic Development Council concerning its Door to Tomorrow program. Sue Jones of Delphos serves as secretary on the five-member, full-time staff, hired by the council. Ron Illyes of Delphos was appointed to serve on the nine-member advisory board. Workers of Wellman Bros., Coldwater, removed the cross Tuesday from the steeple of St. Johns Church. The cross, which towers 66 feet above the base of the steeple, will be put back after the base of the cross is reinforced. Workers for the past several weeks have been removing and waterproofing portions of the steeple and securing the copper shingles. The bell area and the clock area are also being repaired. Airman Russell H. Klenz, son of Rolland and Virginia Klenz of Delphos, has graduated from the U.S. Air Force air cargo specialist course at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas. Also graduating was Airman Jeffrey A. Kissell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert A. Kissell of Columbus Grove, from the U.S. Air Force inventory management course at Lowry Air Force Base, Colo. 50 Years Ago 1961 Plans are well under way for the annual carnival at Delphos Jefferson High School sponsored by the Delphos Parent-Teachers Association, according to Don Schramm, general chairman. Mrs. Bill Line and Mrs. Dick Line, who are in charge of the amateur show, reported that students are still needed to complete the show. Rev. Thomas Kuhn, Principal of St. Johns High School, announced that four St. Johns senior boys, Philip Bryan, James Lang, Gary Miller and William Van Pelt, have been chosen to attend a series of Saturday morning science lecturedemonstrations to be given at the Lima-Westinghouse plant to a select group of high school seniors from Allen County. The Delphos Jefferson Wildcats rolled over a thoroughly outclassed Spencerville team there Friday night, 42-14, for their fifth straight victory without a setback in a Northwest Conference tilt. Porter and Dorman were the big guns for the winners, and Jack Murphy and Jim Feathers turned in the outstanding defensive plays.

IT WAS NEWS THEN

Catholics honor various saints for various reasons. Over the years the Catholic Church has canonized many saints. Its a rather complicated process after miracles are attributed to these holy people. St. Francis of Assisi is one of these holy men. His feast day is Oct. 4 and he was known as the lover of animals, as well as humans. Father Joe Przybysz pastor of St. Josephs Parish in Fort Jennings chose Sunday afternoon for the annual Blessing of the Animals. This is the third year for this event in Fort Jennings. Many children and grownups took advantage of this special blessing of their pets. Many have come each year. They bring dogs, cats, rabbits and other small creatures. One young man asked Father Joe to make a house call to bless the larger animals, like his daughters 4-H steer. Father Joe was happy to comply with the request. The blessing goes something like this: Blessed are you, Lord God, maker of all living creatures. You called forth fish in the sea, birds in the air and animals on the land. You inspired St. Francis to call all of them his brothers and sisters. We ask you to bless these pets. By the power of your love, enable them to live according to your plan. May we always praise you for all your beauty in creation? Blessed are you, Lord our God, in all your special creatures! Amen! St. Francis wrote a Canticle of the Creatures, an ode to Gods living things. All praise to You, Oh Lord, for all these brother and sister creatures. The bond between a person and his pet is very special. For those who live alone, a pet can be a true companion. Dogs have long been used as seeing eye dogs. Many have been taught to do special jobs for the handicapped. They are often used for law enforcement, like searching for drugs. Many are known to be good cattle dogs or watch dogs. As for cats, most of them are really good at keeping the mice away. Perhaps the most famous story of St. Francis and relationship with the animals is the legend of the wolf. While visiting in the Italian town of Gubbio, Francis learned of the

For many years, most of the artifacts that were a part of the Delphos Historical Society Museum on the second floor of the Old Commercial Bank Building remained unseen, the only access to them being from a Third Street door. But all that has changed. As part of our recent expansion/renovation, we put a door between that building and ours, installed a stairway and soon will have an elevator for those who cannot manage the stairs. With the inclusion of the old museum and the newly opened second floor of our building, we have more than doubled our display area. Judging from all the oohs and aahs during Canal Days, people like our new look. One of the artifacts that has been marking time in the old museum is a very large oil painting and according to Jim Weger, there is a most interesting story associated with it. A young woman, Elizabeth

Dietzel, lived in Baltimore, Md., and was being courted by two gentlemen, Frank Weber and Adam Deupert, both of whom had asked to marry her. One rainy day, Elizabeth was in church praying about this very important decision she had to make. As she was leaving the church, young Frank Weger was there with an umbrella in his hand. She took this as a sign and chose to marry him. Mr. Weger was a barrelmaker, also known as a cooper. As the timber was depleted in the Baltimore area, he and Elizabeth moved west and settled in Delphos to raise their 7 boys and 3 girls. When Frank died at the age of 70, the news reached relatives in Baltimore and also reached Adam Deupert who had become very prosperous. He began a correspondance with the widow Weger, and as things progressed, Deupert, who had been the unsuccessful

suitor of Elizabeth those many years ago, ultimately became the successful suitor. Since some of Elizabeths family were still living at home with her, she requested Deupert provide a suitable place for them to live in Delphos. He obliged by having a new house built and happily took his new bride back to Baltimore. Elizabeth was Jims grandmother and she died before he was born, but he believes the painting came from Deuperts collection in Baltimore. It hung in his childhood home on Third Street and was donated to the museum by his mother, Mrs. Anthony (Lucille) Weger. The museum is open from 1-3 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday and from 9 a.m. to noon every Thursday. We are located on the west side of Main Street between Second and Third streets and right along the Miami-Erie Canal. Come see our new look.

Cavs nip Jays in fantastic finish

By JIM METCALFE jmetcalfe@ delphosherald.com COLDWATER St. Johns outscored Coldwater 14-0 in the middle 39 minutes of their Midwest Athletic Conference gridiron clash on a wonderful fall Friday night at Cavalier Stadium. It was the before and after, including a late touchdown toss in the last 1:13, that enabled the host Cavaliers to escape with a 17-14 victory on the Great American Rivalry Series contest. The Cavaliers (6-1, 5-0 MAC) lost 10-point firstperiod lead to now trail 14-10 and needed to go 65 yards in 3;25 to take the lead. Junior signal-caller Austin Bruns (11-of-23 passing, 154 yards, 2 touchdowns, 1 pick) got hot at the right time for the home team: 6-of-8 on the 9-play drive, for 58 yards. Three times he found Josh Huber (5 grabs, 82 yards) for 21 yards as the Jays (4-3, 4-1 MAC) could not get to him with their 3-man pass rush. On 2nd-and-6 at the Jays 18, Bruns dropped and threw to the left sideline for Caleb Siefring (3 grabs, 58 yards), who caught the ball near the pylon for the tally. Troy Otten tacked on the extra point for a 17-14 edge with 1:13 remaining. We rushed three guys and they protected with six. We couldnt get any pressure on him and the result was predictable, St. Johns mentor Todd Schulte noted. Still, the defense played a whale of a game to give us a chance to win after we spotted them 10 points. Youre generally not going to win many games against quality teams by doping that. Coldwater coach Chip Otten also pointed to his defense as the key to the win. I talked about it all week how the defenses were stout and the offenses were trying to find an identity. St. Johns has used that 3-man line to great effectiveness, Otten explained. We felt we could run against it but they did a great job of stopping that. Austin wasnt frustrated when hed come to the sideline. He got hot at the right time by not going downfield as much but taking more of the short stuff. The Jays still had a chance but they needed to go 80 yards after T. Otten put the kickoff in the end zone with two timeouts left. They did convert a 4thand-13 at the 17 on a Mark Boggs (9-of-19 passing, 80 yards, 3 picks) 25-yarder to

Elida loses close one to O-G Titans

Ada survives in 2 OT versus Knights

By Brian Bassett Times Bulletin Sports Editor sports@timesbulletin.com

ELIDA The Elida Bulldogs played host to the Ottawa-Glandorf Titans in what would turn out to be a downto-the-wire Western Buckeye League football game Friday night at Kraft Stadium. The home team trailed for the entire game; however, the Bulldogs got right back into the contest in the fourth quarter when Reggie McAdams ran into the end zone followed by a successful 2-point conversion to put the Bulldogs down only by a score of 21-18 with a little under eight minutes to go in the contest. However, the Bulldogs could not keep the visitors out of the end zone and lost a heart-breaker by a final score of 28-25 in favor of the Titans. The Titans struck first in the first quarter when Tristen Parker busted off a 56-yard touchdown See ELIDA, page 8

Kalida boys capture PCL soccer title

By MALLORY KEMPER The Delphos Herald mkemper2011@ hotmail.com OTTOVILLE The Kalida boys soccer team can officially be called Putnam County League champions after winning 3-0 at Bob Kaple Memorial Stadium against Ottoville Friday night. Kalida improved to 11-1, 4-1 in the PCL, while the Big Green fell to 10-3, 2-2 in the PCL. I feel very excited for the kids since they have put in a lot of hard work this season, Kalida coach Mark Czubik said. I am just hoping we have better and bigger things this year in the tournament. Hopefully with 11 seniors, this is their last chance and they can make the most of it this year. The first goal came early, just a minute and a half into the match when Kalida quickly got the ball through Ottovilles defense. That set up a Tyler Erhart pass to Cody Schnipke, who made a fancy move and took a shot from about six yards at the top of the goal just past Ottoville goalie, Austin Markward. Big Green senior Adam Beining took control of the ball at the 26:34 mark and got a nice look at the goal on the right side and shot at Kalida goalie, Drew Stechschulte, who was right there to stop the ball. At the 14:49 mark, Kalida took control, using the quickness of Tyler Kortokrax. He passed the ball up to sophomore Ian Richey, whose in-close shot from just two yards out from the goal slid right past Markward as he dove but came up short for a 2-0 Kalida lead. With five minutes left in the first half, the Wildcats took control of the ball again and Ben VonderEmbse took a shot at the goal but Markward deflected it and then came up with the ball to end the half. Ottoville controlled the ball the second half better, getting a good look at the goal with 25:25 left on the clock when Evan Laudick was wide open; he darted a laser at Stechschulte. Ottovilles Sam Beining also had a good look at the goal when he used his speed to get past the Kalida defenders and took a shot but the ball barely missed the back of the net. The Wildcats stepped it up defensively and then quickly got the ball down to the other end when Schnipke made a fancy move just outside the goal and took a shot; while Markward was defending the right side of the net, the ball went to the back left corner for a commanding 3-0 lead for the Wildcats. At 13:01, there was hope from the Big Green as Laudick took control of the ball and shot a 15-yard laser right at Stechschulte. Kalidas defense stepped up the remainder of the second half for a PCL victory. I think we did a great

Tyler Jettinghoff (17 carries, 56 yards; 3 grabs, 36 yards). However, on the sixth play of the drive from the 48, Siefring made a diving interception, his second of the night, to seal the deal. The Jays spotted the Cavaliers 10 points on two interceptions in the first nine Blue Jay plays. Jordan Chapin grabbed a pass tipped by Siefring at midfield (third play) and two plays later at the Cavalier 47, Bruns took the shotgun snap and waited. He threw deep down the left seam and Huber made an over-the-shoulder catch at the 5 and finished it off in the end zone. Ottens kick made it 7-0 with 8:52 left in the first period. Siefring got his first pick (ninth play) and his 35-yard return put the hosts at the visitors 25. However, the Blue and Gold defense stiffened and forced Otten to drill a 43-yard field goal to take a 10-0 edge with 5:37 showing in the opening stanza. We had another poor start; I dont know what it is but we only seem to start playing once our backs are against the wall, Schulte added. If our offense could sustain anything consistently, that would help our defense out a lot. Our defense played well enough to win. We had a chance to put them away in the fourth quarter and couldnt make first downs. The Jays had their next drive stall in Coldwater space and then it became a war of attrition, with the Jays starting to win the field-position battle. The next five drives ended in punts but the sixth series was a turning point. Bruns

was picked off by senior Austin Jostpille and his 10-yard return put the Jays in business at the Cavalier 16 with 3:07 remaining in the half. Six plays hence, a 4th-and goal at the 1, Schulte put the onus on his offensive line, especially the left side of center Kent Staup, guard Seth Bockey and tackle Alex Wehri, to open the hole for tailback Jordan Bergfeld (11 rushes, 48 yards) to burst off left guard and into the end zone with two ticks to play. Josh Rode added the kick for a 10-7 halftime deficit. The third period was also a battle of field position and it went the Jays way. Three punts to open the half ended up with the third one a shanked 21-yarder by Kyle Bergman, putting the Jays in great starting position at the Cavalier 33. Three plays hence at the 24, on 4thand-1, Bergfeld took a handoff off the right side behind Staup, guard Bryce Schulte, tackle Drew Neumeier and tight end David Lindeman; he got through the line and saw open space to the end zone. Rodes conversion made it 14-10, Jays, with 3:19 showing in the third. The Blue and Gold defense came up with a 4thand-3 stop at their own 31, with Brent Schwinnen and his friends stopping Bruns for no gain. The Orange and Black defense came up with a stop of its own, holding on a 4thand-6 incompletion at their own 26. After having to punt away, the Coldwater defense also came up big on its next drive, forcing a 3-and-out. A 42-yard Tanner Calvelage (4 grabs, 42 yards) punt set them up at their 35 for the game-winning drive.

This was about determination and not stopping playing; this is what its all about, Coach Otten added. You dont lift all those weights and do all that work in the offseason for the 60-point blowouts but for games like this. This was a great high school football game.

CONVOY - With the nearcapacity crowd on their feet at Crestview Stadium Friday night, Knight quarterback Trevor Roop took the biggest snap of his varsity football career. Roop rolled out left, reversed field right and was eventually taken down by a swarm of Ada pass-rushers. The Bulldog sack on the 2-point-conversion attempt in double-overtime preserved a 43-42 Northwest Conference win for Ada over Crestview. After forcing a Bulldogs 3-and-out to open the game, the Knights followed suit, opting to punt on their first possession. The Venice Roberts punt was fielded by Adas Matt Wilcox, who took the ball 66 yards for a touch-

down. A Hunter Waller extra point then gave the Bulldogs an early 7-0 lead. The Knights punted on the ensuing drive and a 54-yard boot by Roberts forced Ada to start from its own 10-yard line. Ada could get nothing going on offense, giving the ball back to the Knights. Crestview received the ball in Ada territory and started to put a drive together but a Knight fumble gave Ada the ball back at their own 4-yard line. Ada quarterback Konnor Baker then led the Bulldogs on a 9-play, 96-yard scoring drive, which culminated when Baker found Jacob Ansley for a 31-yard touchdown pass. The Waller PAT made the score 14-0, Ada, with 20 seconds to play in the first quarter. Ansley returned the ball to the Bulldogs on the ensuing See ADA, page 8

job of possessing the ball for the first 15 minutes and then I think we kind of let down a little bit, Czubik added. Our defense played very well tonight, especially our sweeper, Nick Guisinger. The shots on-goal were almost even as the Wildcats took six and Ottoville took five. Markward had three saves for Ottoville, while Stechschulte had two for the visitors. We put ourselves behind early, letting them get a cheap goal, and we have been stressing our defense and marking our assignments all year, Ottoville coach Eric Gerker said. We knew what we had to do and we didnt do it tonight. Our defensive breakdowns are a cause of concern. We will work on that the next couple of weeks and get it back to where it needs to be. The junior varsity contest ended in a 0-0 tie. Ottoville travels to Lima Temmple Christian today, while Kalida hosts Defiance 7 p.m. Monday.

FISHING REPORT
gill and nightcrawlers for channel catfish. These fish are biting in the mornings and in the evenings. Anglers are also catching saugeye in 8-10 feet of water by drifting worm harnesses mornings and evenings. NORTHEAST OHIO Mogadore Reservoir (Portage Co.) - A full size range of crappie are being caught here, with stringers full of 9- to 12-incher after fishing through the smaller ones. Small jigs ranging from 1/32to 1/8-oz. with small curly-tail soft plastics and marabou jigs are a fun way to fish for them; fishing a minnow under a bobber or casting a jig with a minnow has also proven to put slabs in the cooler. Portage Lakes (Summit Co.) - Crappie, sunfish and even some nice-size bonus perch are being reeled in this chain of lakes (Turkeyfoot and Long lakes and the West, East and North reservoirs). If you want a chance at catching all of the above, your best bet would be a pinmin with wax worm under a bobber. The majority of crappie and perch are being caught on minnows under a bobber in 8 feet of water about 3-4 feet below the surface. SOUTHWEST OHIO Great Miami River (Miami/ Montgomery/Warren counties) Smallmouth bass fishing can be excellent as the water cools and river conditions remain clear and stable. Look for areas with water deeper than 4 feet around bridge pilings, submerged logs and undercut banks; try drifting a live nightcrawler or minnow fished

under a bobber. Plastic crayfish or crank baits in crawdad patterns are also effective. Rocky Fork Lake (Highland Co.) - Saugeyes are being taken in 8- to 15-foot depths near the islands and along main lake points; try trolling silver-colored crank baits so that the lure occasionally bumps bottom. Largemouths can be found along rocky shorelines and near fallen trees; cast jigs, rubber worms and crank baits. LAKE ERIE Daily Bag Limit Regulations to Remember: Lake Erie walleye - 6 (minimum size limit is 15 inches); Yellow perch - 30 per angler on all Ohio waters of Lake Erie; Steelhead trout - 2 per angler (minimum size limit of 12 inches); Lake Erie black bass (largemouth and smallmouth) - 5 (minimum size limit of 14 inches). Western Basin There have been very few walleye reports recently. The best have come from Kelleys Island and Gull Island shoals. Expect fishing to improve as water temperatures drop and migratory walleye move back towards the west from the central basin. ... Windy weather limited yellow perch fishing over the past weekend. Prior to this, the best areas had been NW of West Sister Island, E of Niagara Reef, around Rattlesnake Island, off of West Reef, off of Ballast Island and E of Kelleys Island using spreaders with shiners (emerald or golden) fished near the bottom.

Crestview drive, intercepting Roop and returning the ball to the Ada 39. Ada could not capitalize, however, punting the ball back to Crestview. The Knight offense continued to have trouble holding onto the ball, as a snap gave the ball right back to Ada. Crestviews defense held strong, forcing another Ada punt. Noah Gebert downed the Bulldog punt at midfield and Crestview put a drive together which was capped by a Roop 1-yard touchdown run on fourth-and-goal. Crestview could not convert on the PAT and with 2:38 to play in the second quarter, Ada led 14-6. Crestview got the ball back and found themselves driving late in the half but an interception by Baker in the Ada end zone as time expired sent the game to the break with Ada still leading 14-6. The Knights took the ball to open the second half and drove right through the Bulldog defense. Roop kept the ball on an option to the left, then raced 68 yards to the end zone for a Crestview

By JIM METCALFE jmetcalfe@ delphosherald.com DELPHOS There are many reasons to get fitter and healthier these days: rising health-care costs; exploding obesity rates; being sick and tired of being sick and tired; and on and on. For Delphos residents Josh Gillespie, Amy Baldauf and Rachel Lebeck, those were all good enough for them to start the Delphos Team Beachbody Fit Club July 18. For me, I looked at the expected rise in health-care costs it is estimated that in 2018, 60 cents of every dollar will go toward health care and that was alarming. Amy and I talked one day about health and nutrition, about helping people understand fitness and health, about how to look and feel better, have better self-esteem, and perhaps either avoid or cut down on those costs, Gillespie explained. This was an idea we came up with. We meet weekly at the Microtel Inn and Suites on East Fifth Street at 6:30 p.m. Mondays. The cost is $3 per week but it is pay as you go; we exercise and talk about nutrition and fitness goals for each individual. We want to get people moving and healthy. Sure, anyone can do the workouts without leaving their living room. But here there are no distractions. And if you feel like quitting, theres always someone encouraging you to keep pushing. Gillespie uses what he learned in the military, which he entered after high school, to help in this matter. As well, he notes, Beachbody Fitness has been a leader in the homefitness industry since 1998. I learned a lot in the military and was in pretty good shape after that. When I got out, I continued to work out regularly, he added. However, once you get married and start having kids, that becomes very easy to change. I got away from it but in the last three years, I made the comment to

touchdown. The Knights elected to go for two and converted when Malcolm Oliver took the ball rightside to the corner of the pylon. The conversion made the score 14-14 with 11:06 to play in the third. Following an Ada punt on the ensuing drive and a Knight interception, Ansley intercepted his second pass of the game to give Ada the ball at the Knight 37. The Bulldogs made the turnover hurt, driving the ball to the 8-yard line before Kellen Decker carried the ball in for a touchdown to put Ada up 20-14; the Waller PAT made the score 21-14. Crestview countered on the following drive, taking the ball at their own 24 and going the length of the field for a score. A Roop pass to Gebert set the Knights up with the ball at the 5 and two plays later, Roop rushed in from two yards out to bring Crestview within one, 21-20. An incomplete pass on the conversion attempt kept the score at 21-20 with 9:34 to play in the fourth. The Knight defense then came up big, getting consecutive sacks on Baker to force

the Bulldogs into a fourthand-33. Following the Ada punt, Baker intercepted his counterpart for the second time on the night. Ada again capitalized on the Crestview turnover when Decker ran in his second 8-yard touchdown run to give Ada a 27-20 lead. The PAT by Waller gave Ada a 28-20 lead with 3:33 to play in the game. Oliver took the kickoff into Bulldog territory and the Knight offense took over at the Ada 47. They then used 11 plays to take the ball to the Ada 1 with just over 30 seconds to play in the game. Roop was denied on second down before the Knights used a timeout. On thirdand-1 from there, Crestview called Jacob Harmons number on a dive. When the dust settled, Harmon had crossed the plane, bringing the Knights within two points with 30 seconds to play. Roop rolled right on the conversion attempt and escaped pressure to run in the conversion and tie the game as the Knight fans erupted. The Ada offense tried to drive but a Justin Lare interception of Baker gave

Crestview the ball back. Two quick runs ended regulation and sent the game to overtime. Ada won the toss before overtime and elected to play defense first. The Crestview offense ran three plays in the first overtime, the third being a 6-yard touchdown run by Harmon. The Knights elected to go for two and when the Bulldog defense sent Roop scrambling it looked like they would not convert. Roop then threw a desperation pass across his body that fell into the arms of Roberts to give the Knights a 36-28 lead. The Knight defense forced Ada into a third-and-10 from the 20 to begin the second half of the first overtime but Baker took over, finding Wilcox unguarded in the back of the end zone. The score brought Ada within two and the Bulldogs tied the game when Baker and Wilcox hooked up again on the conversion attempt, sending the game to doubleovertime. Ada took the ball on the 20 to begin the second overtime and could get nothing going as the Knight defense held strong on the first three downs, setting Ada up with fourth-and 10. Baker then found Decker wide open in the end zone as a Knight defender slipped, giving Ada a 42-36 lead. Ada elected to kick the PAT and Waller converted, making the score 43-36, Bulldogs. Crestview found themselves in a situation where they had to score in their portion of the second overtime and did just that when Harmon took the ball and many Ada defenders into the end zone for a score and a 43-42 Ada lead. Crestview chose to go for the 2-point conversion. Roop rolled out to the left and found Ada defenders waiting on him, then reversed field before the pass rush swallowed him, sacking him to end the game. I thought that was just a great effort by Crestview. They did a nice job of shutting down our offense. It was kind of gut-check time for us because [Roop] does a great job, hes tough to bring down. That was a great win for us, Ada coach Mike Fell said. Crestview coach Jared Owens noted his teams resiliency on the night, battling back from multiple deficits: I saw how resilient they are; they dont have any quit in them. And Ive been saying that same thing time and time again for about four weeks. Our guys were able to come together as a family a little bit, to get the job done together. And we were just an extra point away from playing another overtime and a 2-point conversion away from winning it. The Knights outgained Ada on the night, 445 yards to 201. Baker completed 13-of-27 passes for 171 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. Roop was the leading rusher for Crestview, with 28 carries for 192 yards and three touchdowns. The win moves Ada to 6-1, 4-1 in the NWC. Crestview moves to 4-3 on the year, 3-2 in the NWC.

(Continued from Page 6) the Bulldogs their first lead of the game by a score of 10-7 and things started to look like Elida might have found its stride. Ottawa-Glandorf had other ideas and put a great drive together during the final five minutes of the first half to take the lead going into intermission. With just under three minutes left in the second quarter, Craig Rieman ran into the back of the end zone to put the Titans up once again 14-10 to end the second quarter. The second half was one of the better halves of the season. Both teams played their hearts out and left everything they had on the field. Elida trailed by a score of 21-10 with 8:26 left in the fourth quarter and took over the ball at the Titan 26. McAdams got the Bulldogs right back into the mix when he ran in a touchdown on a drive that went those 26 yards on five plays to make it 21-18 with time winding down in the fourth quarter. The next OG drive is exactly what the Elida Bulldogs needed; a 3-and-out to give them the ball back with plenty of time to put on a score and get the victory. Thats exactly what the Bulldogs did. With 4:11 left in the contest, Brandon Stinson took a punt 80 yards into the end zone to erupt the Elida crowd and put the Bulldogs up by a score of 25-21.

start exercising regularly. For me, it is great to help deal with stress, whatever form it takes or from wherever it comes from. Beachbody Fit Club is offering workouts that will get you feeling great. Theyve created many of the most popular fitness and weight loss solutions. Fit Club is going to mix it up every week with different Beachbody Fitness programs like Tony Hortons P90X, Shaun Ts Insanity and Chalene Johnsons ChaLEAN Extreme and Turbo Fire. For Baldauf, it was a way to get serious about losing weight and taking care of some health issues. I have struggled with weight loss for a while; it is hard to consistently lose weight by yourself. Its much easier with support of those struggling with the same things, she explained. Its not just getting regular exercise; its nutrition and eating better. With obesity becoming more and more of a problem in America, its a concern for all of us. We want to help people get For me, it has lowered my cholesterol level 50 points; I was told either Id have to go on meds or Id have to do it this way. I chose this way and Im glad I did. As far as she is concerned, the club will stay at Microtel for the foreseeable future. They have really accommodated us well and they have a lot of space. We have been 5-9 people that show up regularly, Baldauf added. That changes some because of school, soccer and other things going on but I am hoping as winter sets in and schedules calm down, well get those and more. We do a lot of cardio which doesnt requires any machines. If we need to use weights, they are small hand weights that either those attending can bring from home or we have some extra. For more information, contact Baldauf at (419) 303-5918, Gillespie at (567) 242-9806 or Lebeck at (419) 302-7281.

Trailing for only the second time all night, the Titans took over the ball at their own 35 with a little over four minutes left to go. They put together a brilliant 65-yard drive and got the ball down to the Elida 18 with 2:17 left to go in the game. Quarterback Caleb Siefker connected to Trey Parsons for a 12-yard TD pass to put the Titans up 28-25 with just over two minutes left to go. Elida took over and had the ball on their own 31 with a 4thand-9 situation and the game on the line. McAdams connected to Etzler for a 7-yard completion that came up just short of the first down and OG was two kneels away from taking the WBL victory. Elida head coach Jason Carpenter could not stress enough the importance of the week of practice that led up to Fridays contest. This whole week, we were not very determined and into practice and it showed up tonight as we didnt perform the way we needed to, Carpenter added. Our seniors have to get us ready to play and get the team mentally ready to go each and every week at practice; they just simply did not do that this week and it showed. With the loss the Bulldogs fall to 4-3 (3-3 WBL) on the year, while the Titans improve to 5-2 (4-2 WBL). Elida visits Bath Friday night.

If golf is a religion, then the smell of freshly mown Bermuda grass is the incense that drifts through its rituals. For golfers this is the smell of eternal hope that they can start over, according to the stressed-out young pro whose story drives the novel Golfs Sacred Journey: Seven Days in Utopia, by sports psychologist David Cook. Each time a golfer steps to the first tee surrounded by this tantalizing fragrance he stands at even par, muses Luke Chisholm. We all own par on the first tee. Hope is eternal. Its on the 18th green that one has to face the music. Death, of course, is the ultimate 18th green. Which is why Chisholm ends up -- now in a mainstream movie -- kneeling at an empty grave in Utopia, Texas, trying to decide what epitaph he wants on his blank tombstone. Viewers who know anything about cinematic tales of redemption will not be surprised to learn that Robert Duvall plays the wise Southern sage who, with seven days of wisdom, helps save this young mans soul and his golf game. Its the kind of scene that would have occurred in The Legend of Bagger Vance -- if the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association

Golf as a religion, spiritual discipline

had made that golfing parable. The bottom line is that the independently produced Seven Days in Utopia represents another stage in the development of a faithfriendly branch of the movie industry. The film even features the talents of two Academy Award winners: Duvall and Melissa Leo. In the pivotal graveside scene, Chisholm tries to thank the elderly Johnny Crawford, a golf pro who escaped into ranching. Duvalls character simply points skyward. Dont thank me, he says, on a Sunday morning that just happens to be Easter. Thank him, because God is in all of us. Inside each of us, if you listen, theres a still, small voice of truth leading us, talking to us, and telling you that you can see Gods face, feel his presence, trust his love. The novels version of this scene is even more blunt, complete with a multi-page ser-

mon on the fateful biblical encounter between Jesus, a proud fisherman named Peter and a large school of fish that had evaded the future apostles nets all day. Chisholm ends up confessing his sins, including that golf had been his god, and being born again. Its hard to be that blunt in mainstream theaters. The movie also added some new action scenes, a father-son feud and a hint of a love interest for Chisholm -- a lovely horse whisperer whose story may drive the sequel. We wanted a big net in the movie, said Cook. We wanted this to be safe for everybody to go see without being hit on the head with something really explicit. Its safe, but the Hollywood Reporter noted that the movie still managed to steer its audience toward an altar call -- in cyberspace. The team behind Seven Days in Utopia must, noted the lukewarm review, be given full credit for coming up with something new in movies: To learn what happens at the end, youve got to go online. After carefully building up to a climactic scene in which the underdog hero must sink a long putt to win a sudden-death playoff, the camera looks away, narration intones to the effect that the protagonist now has a higher calling so it doesnt matter much in the big picture whether he won or not and, if you actually

want to know who came out on top, you must go to www.didhemaketheputt.com. That twist may sound corny to film critics, but its not, insisted Cook, who now lives in Utopia, a real town in the Texas Hill Country. During his professional career, including his time as president of the National Sports Psychology Academy, Cook said it was rare to meet an athlete who wouldnt own up to spiritual struggles in life. Most struggle with fear. What I have found is that whatever helps you conquer fear only makes you stronger, he said. If sports is your god, its easy to be afraid when everything is on the line. But if you have faith, you can say, The suns coming up tomorrow and God loves me. Why should I fear whether this little white ball goes in the hole or not? Why be afraid?

The Herald 11

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
SUNDAY, OCT. 9, 2011 Because of last years experiences, you may have somewhat of a better understanding of yourself and what it might take to fulfill your needs in the near future. Use this knowledge to go for the brass ring without falling off the horse. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- It wont be necessary for anybody to look over your shoulder in order to prod you into doing a good job. The pride you take in everything that you do will influence your productivity. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -There is nothing wrong with being in love with love itself if its for the right reasons, one of which is to make light of the troubles of the world, and to respond to them with compassion and affection. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Family members wont mind if you adopt a take-charge attitude. They know that when you assume authority over a situation, itll make their lives easier. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- To get a new perspective on worldly woes, a change of venue is generally pretty helpful. You dont have to go far away, only to where you can experience something unfamiliar. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- If it fits into your schedule, go to a place that is different from where you usually shop, especially if youre looking to purchase something distinct and unusual. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Its not unusual for you to focus on doing things for others, which is admirable. However, it might prove helpful to focus a bit on your own needs and wants for a change. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Dont be surprised by how sympathetic you are to persons who are in need and could use some help. It wont necessarily be only with loved ones, but anybody you like. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- The key to forming a successful relationship is to show that you care about the other partys needs and desires. Involvements with others can either make or break you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Most objectives can be attained if you understand that the way to successfully get what you want is based on how kindly youve treated the person from whom you now need a favor. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -It behooves you to seek involvements that enable you to use the full expression of your imagination. Instead of placing restraints on your thinking, let your mind explore all possibilities. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Without us realizing it at times, we can learn by teaching. If youre called upon to help a friend sort out a complicated problem, chances are what youll tell her or him will end up aiding you as well. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -When it comes to an important oneon-one relationship, youre likely to help this person more readily if you access your emotions. Feel your way to a good outcome. MONDAY, OCT. 10, 2011 Establishing multiple ambitious objectives will come easy for you in the year ahead, and you stand a good chance of realizing many of your aims. But youll have to be careful not to take on more than you can handle. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Be as cooperative as possible, even if the other guy isnt. People can be a bit touchy, so tactful handling of all your important one-on-one relationships is essential. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Co-workers or helpmates could unintentionally cause problems for you. Thus, if it is at all feasible, do as much as you can on your own, rejecting all offers of help. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Its always important to be extremely selective in whom you place your trust, but it is especially vital that you plan wisely when finances are involved. A bum choice could be costly. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Stifle any disagreement that pops up between you and your mate as promptly as possible. If you dont, things could grow out of proportion and turn into a real fight. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Its likely to be very difficult for you to quell your temper if someone should irritate you, so be on guard. A lack of control invites unpleasant confrontations aplenty. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -Yielding to extravagant impulses is never a good move, yet your desires could far outweigh your smarts. Unfortunately, you wont have the willpower to withstand your fanciful whims. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Unless it can resolve something, dont point any fingers at others, claiming they are the ones at fault for messing up, even if you believe this to be true. Let the chips fall where they may. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Even if you recognize the shortcomings of another, you should keep them to yourself and exercise tolerance when dealing with that person. Acting too smart or too wise makes you look bad. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -There is a good chance you might have to deal with someone who is a taker. Should this person think youre an easy mark, dont hesitate to prove him or her wrong. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Trying to force others to give you the support you think you deserve wont help anything. In fact, instead of facilitating matters, it might only make them worse. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Its one of those days when you think you can beat the odds and, consequently, wont hesitate to do something that goes against your better judgment. Itll be a bad mistake. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -You know it is never wise to involve yourself with friends where money or something of value is at stake, yet you are likely to do so anyway. Someone will get the short end of the stick.

Religious bigotry slung at Romney

By KASIE HUNT Associated Press WASHINGTON The fundamentalist pastor who introduced Texas Gov. Rick Perry at a conservative gathering Friday said rival presidential candidate Mitt Romney is not a Christian and is in a cult because he is a Mormon. Robert Jeffress, the senior pastor at First Baptist Church in Dallas, made similar remarks about Romney when he ran in the 2008 campaign. Event organizers at the Values Voters Summit selected Jeffress to introduce Perry, but the Perry campaign was consulted about the choice and approved Jeffress to introduce the Texas governor. Jeffress endorsed Perry at the event and introduced him as a proven leader, a true conservative, and a committed follower of Christ. After his remarks, Jeffress told reporters that Perrys religion is different from Romneys. Rick Perrys a Christian. Hes an evangelical Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ, Jeffress said. Mitt Romneys a good moral person, but hes not a Christian. Mormonism is not Christianity. It has always been considered a cult by the mainstream of Christianity. Romney is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, whose members are commonly called Mormons. Perry and his campaign made clear that he disagrees with Jeffress. Asked by reporters Friday night in Tiffin, Iowa, whether Mormonism is a cult, Perry replied, No. Earlier Friday, spokesman Mark Miner said that the governor does not believe

Mormonism is a cult. Still, the campaign refused to definitively say whether they were accepting his offered endorsement. The governor is running a campaign of inclusion and looks forward to receiving the endorsement of many people, Miner said. People can endorse whoever they like. Jeffress had made similar comments about Romney before, during the former Massachusetts governors first presidential run in 2008. Mitt Romney is a Mormon, and dont let anybody tell you otherwise. Even though he talks about Jesus as his lord and savior, he is not a Christian, Jeffress said in a 2007 sermon. Mormonism is not Christianity. Mormonism is a cult. And just because somebody talks about Jesus does not make them a believer.

Feds want to halt Alabama immigration law in court

By GREG BLUESTEIN Associated Press ATLANTA The federal government asked an appeals court Friday to stop Alabama officials from enforcing a strict immigration law that has already driven Hispanic students from public schools and migrant workers from towns, warning that it opens the door to discrimination against even legal residents. The Department of Justices filing to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals also said the law, considered by many to be the most stringent immigration measure in the country, could cause considerable fallout as immigrants flee to other states or their native countries. A coalition of advocacy groups also filed a separate appeal Friday that claims the law has thrown Alabama into chaos and left some Hispanics too afraid to go to their jobs and reluctant to send their kids to school. The court signaled in an order Friday that it wouldnt decide whether to halt the law until it reviews more arguments from both sides next week. The state must file a brief by Tuesday, and the government must respond by Wednesday. After that, the court could decide whether to intervene by issuing a preliminary injunction. In the meantime, Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley said he intends to continue enforcing the hotly disputed law, which allows authorities to detain people suspected of being in the country illegally and lets officials check the immigration status of students in public schools. Those measures took effect last week after a federal judge upheld them, and they help make the Alabama law stricter than similar laws enacted in Arizona, Utah, Indiana and Georgia. Federal judges in those states have blocked all or parts of those measures. Justice Department attorneys outlined several problems they have with the Alabama overhaul. They worry the law is likely to expose legal residents to new difficulties in routine dealings and could force federal authorities to deal with low-risk immigrants rather than the most dangerous criminals. And, they say, the attempt to drive illegal immigrants off the grid could disrupt both diplomatic relationships and national policy. Other states and their citizens are poorly served by the Alabama policy, which seeks to drive aliens from Alabama rather than achieve cooperation with the federal government to resolve a national problem, the filing said. Immigration has become a hot-button issue in Alabama over the past decade as the states Hispanic population has grown by 145 percent to about 185,600. U.S. Census figures show the group rep-

FBI: Search for Mo. baby leads to Kan. landfill

By MARIA SUDEKUM FISHER Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. FBI agents searched a Kansas landfill on Friday in connection with the disappearance of a 10-month-old Missouri girl, just hours after the childs mother said police accused her of being involved. Agents and Kansas City police spent about two hours at the Deffenbaugh Industries landfill in the suburb of Shawnee, FBI spokeswoman Bridget Patton said. She wouldnt discuss details but confirmed the activity was related to the search for Lisa Irwin, whose parents said was snatched from her crib in the middle of the night. Patton said it was the second time the FBI had been at the landfill, which investigators also searched Tuesday the same day the baby was reported missing and it wasnt uncommon to search an area several times. Police said agents also went back to the familys home and used metal detectors to search the yard. Lisas mother, Deborah Bradley, said in an interview with The Associated Press earlier Thursday that police told her she failed a lie detector test and accused her of being involved in her babys disappearance. Bradley said police never showed her the test results and she denied knowing anything about what happened to her daughter. She and Lisas father, Jeremy Irwin, said their daughter was abducted sometime late Monday night or early Tuesday morning. They said I failed (a polygraph test), Bradley, 25, said. And I continued to say thats not possible because I dont know where shes at and I did not do this. Irwin, 28, said he also offered to take a test but police

told him it wasnt necessary. Kansas City police spokesman Steve Young declined to comment on whether the parents have been tested, citing the ongoing investigation. The couple said police have treated them like suspects and that Bradley in particular has been preparing for the possibility of charges. She said detectives told her: You did it. You did it. And we have nothing. Experts said the frustration is understandable but that police often focus on close relatives in such cases, in part because statistics show that far more infants and young children are killed by a parent than a stranger. Suspicion almost always falls heavily on the parents, especially when its young kids, said David Finkelhor, director of the Crimes Against Children Research Center based at the University of New Hampshire.

resents about 4 percent of the state population, but some counties in north Alabama have large Spanish-speaking communities and schools where most of the students are Hispanic. State Republicans have long sought to clamp down on illegal immigration and passed the law earlier this year after gaining control of the Legislature for the first time since Reconstruction. Bentley soon signed the measure, saying it was crucial to protect the jobs of legal residents amid the tough economy. Alabama House Speaker Mike Hubbard said the state was forced to act because the federal government ignored its responsibility to enforce immigration law. In Alabama we believe in obedience to law because it promotes fairness and protects the rights of everybody, said Hubbard, a Republican. Thats why instead of just talking about it, we took action to ensure nobody is allowed to cheat the system and ignore our laws. The measure has had an immediate impact.
