For The Record You know where ill be Fighterplane plunges into Today is the first full day of the Canal NANCY SPENCER Days celebration and let me tell you, things have changed a lot since I started covering grandstands Canal Days.
The Toast to the City is the premiere event of the weekend. If you didnt make it uptown Thursday evening and Friday for the Battle of the Businesses, youve already missed a lot. The Toast boasted 500 in attendance. 500! There arent too many other events in Delphos that have that many people in one place that doesnt involve a ball. Todays schedule is packed with activities for all ages, including a pancake and sausage breakfast, bingo, the sidewalk art contest, the bake sale and art show at the bank, the ArtFest exhibit, the pet parade (one of my personal favorites), water ball, Purse Bingo, kiddie tractor pull, tractor show, cruise-in and more. The pig races have been moved to Saturday at 6 p.m. I cant wait. What could be more fun that watching a bunch of baby pigs run amuck I ask you? Nothin, I say. Exploit! takes the stage at 8 p.m. in the Social Tent. They are a regional favorite. The 5-K walk/run, parade and the Big Ticket Drawing will be held on Sunday. Canal Days is a lot more than what you can do. Its also about who you see. Its great to find old friends and reminisce while enjoying a carnival atmosphere. New friends

are also a possibility. Families plan reunions around it and people come from miles around to get in on the fun. The weather couldnt be better. Plenty of sunshine in the forecast and it wont be too hot or too cold; just right. However it turns out, supporting Canal Days is supporting your community. Checks to various groups and charities around October are the evidence of all the hard work it takes to bring an event of this size together. The committee is always looking for help. So if you enjoyed participating in or watching an event, maybe you could help out next year. The weekend has been brought back to its former glory and far surpassed it. It seems to be the place to be the third weekend in September. It is, after all, the last premier festival of the year right here in your front yard! See ya uptown.
RENO, Nev. (AP) A vintage World War II-era fighter plane plunged into the grandstands Friday during a popular annual air show, killing at least three people, injuring more than 50 spectators and creating a horrific scene strewn with body parts and smoking debris. The cause of the crash wasnt immediately known, but an official with the event said there were indications that mechanical problems were at play. The plane, flown by pilot Jimmy Leeward, 74, of Ocala, Fla., a veteran airman and stunt pilot. Witnesses said the plane spiraled suddenly out of control and appeared to disintegrate upon impact. Bloodied bodies were spread across the area as people tended to the victims and ambulances rushed to the scene.

had AIDS. This was a girl who was about 7 years old. We were told that most of the kids we had been playing with had AIDS. All I could think was wow, this is real. This was something so much bigger that I was used to seeing, these little kids with what looked like a death sentence, he continued. Then I realized two things: one, how lucky I am; and two, even though these kids were going through something like that, they still wanted to play sports. Thats what service does. It makes you realize how much you take for granted. Jackson and other volunteers from ugive.org then broke the students down into smaller groups to encourage them to work together and initiate service efforts in their com-
munities. Ottoville and Fort Jennings schools were among the invitees to the event, with Kalida, Ottawa Glandorf, Pandora Gilboa, Miller City and Columbus Grove also in attendance. Jeff Jostpille, the Fort Jennings chaperone and a member of the Leadership Day Planning Committee, said the students would be left with a challenge at the end of the day. We have several organizations from the area that have set up tables and the students will go around and explore the different service opportunities, he said. Theyll also get door prizes based on how many they visit. By the end of the day, they will be required to make a plan for a service project and all of the groups who complete the project and turn in all of their forms will receive a pizza party.

Last month, 536,000 workers were unemployed in Ohio, up from 529,000 in July, officials said. Employment outside of farms declined by 700. Industries that saw the most job losses included professional and business services; manufacturing; and trade, transportation, and utilities. Gainers included educational and health services and construction. We feel like the economy is headed in the right direction in general, though this summer unemployment has climbed and we have taken a few steps backward, Johnson said. highest federal security rating for sites handling agents that cause diseases in both plants and animals. The other is at Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kan. Ohio State officials hope the security clearance will allow the agricultural research center to attract more research grants. While the secure lab was unveiled Friday, it must still undergo several months of testing by federal regulators before any work can begin inside, spokesman Mauricio Espinoza told The Associated Press.

Moderately confused
Lima, Ohio Police and detectives early today, chased a Ford Prairie Schooner across the Indiana line in the belief that one of the occupants was Philip Knapp, the New York war veteran who is wanted for the thrill murder of Louis Panelles. The first tip that the schooner might be Knapps vehicle of flight was given to police by Miss Ruth Keating, after the suspect and two other men had called on her at the Lima License bureau for a certificate to sell ?? on the streets. The men said they were war veterans. Recognizing one as resembling Knapp, Miss Keating notified police who formed a posse, and took up pursuit of the schooner. After following the trio as far as Portland, Ind., the Lima posse gave up and returned. The schooner bears numerous road signs and license plates indicating it has been all over the midwest. A number of small firearms decorated the sides of the machine and on one fender is a monkey in a cage. Reports from nearby towns said the schooner, had been wanted through this district for several weeks. Delphos Herald, July 16, 1925 -------Machine Wrecked On Lincoln Way The Lincoln Highway bridge over the West Fork of Jennings Creek a mile and a half west of Delphos was the scene of another accident early Wednesday morning when a high-powered Morman touring car belonging to V.L Bowyer, proprietor of the Lincoln Highway garage, was wrecked. Mr. Bowyer was at the wheel at the time. Mr. Bowyer states that he was driving at a rate of about 30 miles an hour at the time of the accident. As he came around the curve west of the bridge, the rear tire on the right side blew out causing the car to swerve and strike against the south side of the bridge. The front hub cap caught on the bridge and threw the car still farther around. After striking the bridge, the machine turned crossways and slid about 40 feet east on the road. An accomplice, Mr. Stone, escaped injury. Mr Bowyer sustained slight scratches about the head and a slight bruise on the body. The machine was badly wrecked. The transmission and differential cases were broken, the rear axle torn loose, the right rear wheel broken, the right front hub cap torn off and the front axle bent and the fenders and runnings boards on the right side badly bent. (All this on a high powered car going 30 M.P.H. ?? R.H.) The machine was brought to the garage Wednesday morning by the Friemoth Brothers wrecking car. The accident happened at about two oclock Wednesday morning as the two men were returning from Ft. Wayne. Delphos Herald, July 8, 1925 -------A Brave Woman, Single-Handidly Held Redskins at Bay. On the southern slope of a hillside, about 55 miles west from St. Louis and midway between the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, is the ruin, and even that has almost disappeared, of a heavily built log structure, known in the
early days as Fort Kennedy. This out post of the western march of civilization was the scene of a battle waged on one side by a party of Indians, on the other by a woman, and the result of which was the womans victory. It was autumn, and the Osages, the tribe of Indians that inhabited the territory at that time, were roving in bands, hunting game. At the time mentioned, maraudings and murders by the Indians had been more frequent. It was not strange, therefore, that Mother Kennedy, standing at the front door of the fort, should feel apprehensive as she peered down the vista in front, flanked on either side by long files of giant oaks and hickories. She and her three small children were the only persons at the fort. He husband had gone out that morning with his dogs and rifle in search of game. He said he would return in the afternoon, but had not come. It was about dark when Mother Kennedy finished the work outside and entered the fort. With the evening meal over, the anxious woman stepped outside to listen. When it grew quite dark she suddenly heard the cry of a panther a long way off. The cry was repeated and her trained ear told her that it was a counterfeit of the panther. Then the cry was nearer and repeated on another side of the house. Injuns, said the hardy woman. I recon I better git things ready for the varments. So she groped her way through the darkness to the woodpile in the yard and got her husbandss axe, and re-entered the fort. First she barricaded the door and set the axe against the wall to be ready for emergencies. Then she leaned the rifle against the wall near a small aperture set at an angle for a view of one side of the fort. Then she put her little ones to bed. This done, she felt about for something else to do. She listened. The false panther cry came very close to the fort. If the forms she thought she saw were real, a shot would warn the Indians that the inmates of the fort were aware of their presence and prepared to fight them. The forms drew nearer until she could distinguish one from another. She aimed and fired. A form leaped into the air and cried in pain, and they ran back to the shelter of the trees. Mrs. Kennedy quickly reloaded her rifle and knowing the Indians made a circuit of the room and looked out of the portholes to see if an approach was attempted from any other point. She could see nothing. Another problem now presented itself. She no sooner thought of it than she emptied the mattress on the bed of its stuffing of geese and turkey feathers into the fireplace. Then she awakened her little ones and made them stand near the door, ready to run for the trees if it should be necessary to save herself by flight. After a few minutes shots were fired in front of the fort. Mrs. Kennedy rushed to the porthole on that side and raised her rifle, but did not fire. No forms of the Indians appeared, but the ruse was effective and one or two of them reached the fort from the rear and scaled a pole to the roof. Mrs. Kennedy understood what it meant and the fact that the reds were daring enough to attempt the feat also convinced her that they knew her husband was away. She sprang from the porthole to the fire-

Verhoff deflected two as Russell Niese and Warmuth each got a head shot off. The Wildcats didnt back down as senior Jared Kern got the ball to classmate Gabe Wenzinger at the 20:05 mark; he dribbled his way past Fort Jennings defenders and scored while Verhoff was out of the goal for a 1-1 tie. Not even five minutes later, Wildcat Ross Kaufman used his quickness and got to the far right side of the goal about 14 yards out and scored on the left side, giving Miller City a 2-1 edge. The Musketeers did not back down as Brian Wurst got an open look at the goal but Berner was there with the save. The Musketeers kept battling with 54 seconds on the clock; Berelsman got the ball to Tyler Wiedeman, who chipped it in while Berner dove but missed to end the half with a 2-2 tie. As the second half started, Miller City had more attempts at the goal with eight second-half shots. Kaufman had the first look at the 34:28 mark but it was shot right at Verhoff. At 15:07, Warmuth was just wide right on a 10-yarder; at 14:04, his 16-yarder bullet was deflected and controlled by Verhoff. Finally, Jennings got the chance at the goal with eight minutes to play when Wurst passed up to Dylan Van Loo, who shot from six yards out at the top of the goal when Berner dove but barely missed as Fort Jennings took a 3-2 lead. Miller City had another chance at the goal when Kaufman attempted a 20-yarder but was just left. Fort Jennings hosts Van Buren Tuesday, while Miller City is at home Monday against Archbold.

Still, here is an early pick for MVP Peyton Manning! because this was not even close to the same Colts team were used to. There is a reason why Kerry Collins retired. Small, speedy defense built to rush the passer with big leads, not battle it out for 60 minutes. My guess is that Browns wont play as poorly as they did. BALTIMORE: This could be a letdown game for the Ravens. Plus, Titans promise to run Chris Johnson more. Still, he is a prime candidate for an injury after holding out all preseason its happened before and Ravens dont have to depend on defense to carry everything. Give them the road win. DALLAS: This is a gut-check game this early for Da Boys. Romo must MUST stop making stupid decisions with the ball or else get his eyes checked.

Baltimore: Two words after last weeks performance against the Steelers..Baltimore Ravens. Dallas: Dont kick the ball to Ted Ginn Jr.; do that and take Tony Romo out of the game late in the fourth so he cant choke it up and the Cowboys will win.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from Up a Creek, whose friend, Bob, struggles with alcoholism. Creek suspects unresolved mental health issues, and you acknowledged that this could be true. We have an adult son who went through years of rehab, AA, arrests, counseling, you name it. It started when he was 18, and it got continuously worse until his mother and I finally got educated enough on bipolar disorders to help him get the treatment he should have received much earlier. Please tell Creek to get in touch with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (nami.org) at 1-800-950NAMI (1-800-950-6264). -- N.

By Sara Noel Dear Sara: How do you organize and store your favorite recipes? I was thinking of creating a database on my computer, but I thought I would see if maybe there is a better way. -- Kim Z., Florida Dear Kim: Ive used a few different methods to organize recipes. I used to clip and keep them in binders with plastic sleeve/page protector inserts. I also used to write or print them onto index cards and place them in a traditional recipe box. Now I either bookmark them and place them in food folder categories on my computer or simply save them on actual recipe sites that offer members

the frames either light pink or light sage green or to buy gold frames. -- Jen Dear Jen: Try a whitewash or pickling finish or find crackle paint. Rust-Oleum has an American Accent line that includes a crackle creations kit. Your color choices will work well, too. Pale blue or yellow, lavender, silver, light cocoa or light peach would look nice. Theres nothing wrong with white frames. You can add color to the matte. It really depends on your room, though. Many shabby chic decors bring in more rustic colors such as deep browns and rich reds depending on the rest of the room. Dear Sara: What would you do with yellow tomatoes? I went to the produce auction today. I have 15 pecks of romas to take care of. I couldnt resist buying 2 pecks of heirloom yellow tomatoes as well. What would you do with them? I am not sure if I should just incorporate them into regular sauce or if I should do something special with them. But what? I havent a clue! -- Jennifer, Ohio Dear Jennifer: You can use them the same way you use red tomatoes. I like the color for presentation, so I would use them where they can really be noticed. A few examples include salads (combine with red tomatoes for added color), homemade pizza, salsa, chutney, stuffed tomatoes or in soups or stews. You can grill or roast them, or how about making yellow tomato bruschetta? For a recipe, visit www.karenbussen. com/recipes/tomato-bruschetta.

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
SUNDAY, SEPT. 18, 2011 You could be far more industrious than unusual in the coming year, which is well and good, as long as you balance out your life with some kind of healthy social activities. Anything extreme could turn out to be damaging. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Take care if you find yourself being captivated by someone you meet for the first time. Go slow, because this person may not be anything like what she or he initially represents. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Be sure to keep all the promises you make, including to those in your own family, regardless of how it inconveniences you. Youll regret it if you dont. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- There are some indications that you could want to take credit for something done by another. Dont let your ego cause you to do anything that would diminish your reputation. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- You might unrealistically feel that you cant have a good time without spending a lot of money. Unfortunately, by the time you figure out how wrong you are, itll be too late. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Dress and demeanor can be unreasonable indicators as to who and what you are, but unfortunately there are always those who tend to judge us by our outward appearance. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -Watch out if you are inclined to play the role of a sex symbol. Someone who is playing the field could take seriously what you consider to be a harmless flirtation. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Dont hesitate to say no to a friend who is trying to draw you into an activity that makes you feel uncomfortable or that you believe to be wrong. You dont want any regrets. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- When socializing with an influential friend, you should be sure to emphasize that youre doing so purely from motives of friendship, not personal gain. Watch your behavior very closely. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- In your involvements with others, keep your balance by not seeing yourself as either superior or inferior, only different. If there is a delicate line, be sure not to cross it. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Even if you think it is your last resort, do not request any favors from a known manipulator. This person will tie too many knots in the strings he or she attaches to the accommodation. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- If you have some special plans, you should be careful not to force any reluctant parties along with them. Otherwise you will be on the receiving end of a ton of faultfinding. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Dont try to pawn off onto others any jobs that are your responsibility. If others willingly volunteer to take on some onerous tasks for you however, thats another story. MONDAY, SEPT. 19, 2011 In the next year, it will be far easier and quicker to finalize important matters yourself rather than depend on others to do things for you. When something is vital, youll have no trouble dedicating yourself to the endeavor. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Be on your toes, because something unexpected might occur that would permit you to tie two loose ends together, allowing you to pull off an otherwise impossible feat. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- A situation similar to one you recently handled successfully could repeat itself. With experience under your belt, you wont have any hesitation about taking it on. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -If youre in need of some assistance, turn first to those whom you recently helped. Theyre likely to be the ones who make some time to assist you when you need it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) -- There are indications that you might get the opportunity to merge two new projects into one major endeavor. Although theyll be unrelated, theyll complement each other well. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Instead of avoiding all challenges, you should boldly step forward and meet them head-on. Provocation serves to awaken your strongest qualities and resolve to win. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Having multiple activities awaiting you will prove energizing, so block out your time to handle a full schedule. Having a lack of things to do could be tiring. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Take matters into your own hands if those who were delegated to do certain jobs for you arent performing up to snuff. It will be much easier simply to do things yourself. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Although youre exceptionally perceptive, with your judgment being quite keen, you might not follow through on your shrewd instincts. Dont waste good thinking. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Instead of just blowing the hours away on petty issues or activities, give priority to situations that could be meaningful in material ways. Focus on things that will yield immediate returns. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- An important endeavor in which youre involved is in dire need of some effective leadership. If you believe you can fill these shoes, try them on for size and take charge. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -Because your interest is quite high in multiple areas of your life, you may have difficulty choosing which facets to focus on. Pick the most challenging. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- There is an air of excitement and adventure about you that bored associates will greatly welcome. You wont be putting on any airs; what you project will be quite genuine.
