STAFF REPORT

PIQUA — It’s a cause for celebration and what perfecttiming, too, as Winans Fine Chocolates and Coffees openedtheir doors 50 years ago this very month here in MiamiCounty.While Winans can trace their roots all the way back to

the late 1800s in Michigan, it was the early 1900s thatbrought bakery locations to Ohio where at a Bellefontainelocation two brothers, Max and Dick Winans, added hand-dipped chocolates, brittles and copper kettle caramels to themenu.What soon followed was the opening of Winans Carriage

House Candies in Piqua in 1961.Over the years the only change has been in the name.“We would be foolish to change any of the traditional

recipes that have made Winans successful,” said LaurieWinans Reiser, fourth generation owner. She and her

Chapter Five:Arriving in Gallinas“Coronado and his men

visited many villages insearch of the seven cities ofgold. Starving and tired, theywould sometimes force theirway into the villages and takewhat they needed.”

– Coronado and theGolden Cities

Karol, Hector and Felixwalked side by side into thetown of Gallinas. Tired andhungry, the trio marched on,determined to find the treas-ure.

“All right, navigator,”Karol teased. “Which way?”

“Um, well, let me think,”Hector searched their sur-roundings. A row of busi-nesses lined Main Street,very much like Corona. Butthis town was bigger.

“Look!” Felix pointeddown the street. “They have atheater!”

“And a bowling alley!”Karol added.

“Shhh … listen!” Hectorsaid, tilting his head. “Doyou hear that?”

It took a minute for Felixand Karol to hear it.

“Ah, it’s the merengue!”Karol announced, with a lit-tle bit of a dance motion.

“What’s that supposed tobe?You feeling OK?” Hectorlaughed.

“Shut up, Hector,” Karol’s

cheeks turned a dark shade ofred.

“I was just playing withyou,” Hector apologized.“You’re actually prettygood.”

“Let’s go see where themusic is coming from,” Felixsaid, heading toward the cen-ter of town.

“Over there, at the park!”Hector was the first to spotthe crowd. “It looks like aparty!”

They walked until theywere at the edge of the park.The smell of burritos, enchi-ladas, beans and salsa madeits way to the hungry trio.They could see decorationsand a large piñata hangingfrom a tree branch.

“I’d give my right arm fora burrito about now,” Hectorsaid, licking his lips.

“I’d give my giant, purple,swollen ankle for just onetaco!” Felix joined in.

“I’d give both of you awayfor one single tortilla chip!”Karol laughed. And beforethey knew what had hap-pened, she was in the middleof the party. She was laugh-ing and talking and pointingback to the two dirty, tiredand slightly starving boys.

“What do you think she’sdoing?” Felix whispered.

“Well, I think she’s earn-ing her tortilla chip!” Hectorquickly answered as Karolreturned.

“OK, you two, let’s go!”She motioned toward theparty.

“I knew it! You sold us,didn’t you!” Hector said,pointing an accusing fingerin her face.

“No, genius! That’s myAunt Rosa and my cousins.They invited us to come andeat.”

“Thanks, Karol!” bothboys said over their shoulder,heading to the picnic tables.

“So, Felix,” Tia Rosabegan, “Karol said you’vebeen reading about theexplorer, Coronado.”

“Yes ma’am, that’s right,”Felix could barely speak,with both cheeks full of food.He tried to reach into hisbackpack to show her thebook and spilled his plate.“Thanks again, unluckybell,” he said under hisbreath.

“Here, Felix, use this,”Karol handed him a napkin.

“You should meetDemetri – he’s kind of anexplorer,” Rosa said. “He’soriginally from Russia andhas been in the United Statesfor about a year. He’s a taxidriver.”

Rosa walked Felix over toan unusual-looking man. Hewore a brightly colored shirt,leather sandals and had along, gray ponytail.

“How in the world canyou make any money as ataxi driver out here in themiddle of nowhere?” Felixasked, trying not to soundrude.

“Ah, young man!”Demetri said in a loud, strongRussian voice. “That’s whatmakes it exciting! I neverknow who I’ll meet or whereI’ll go. Every day is a newadventure for me and mycompanion, Misha!” His

voice echoed across the parkand his arms swung aroundthe whole time he spoke.

“It was nice meeting you,Demetri,” Felix said, slowlybacking away from the loudman. “But my friends and Ihave a treasure to find.”

“Good luck on youradventure,” Demetri bel-lowed.

“Same to you!” Felix said,shaking Demetri’s big,sweaty hand.

“Thank you very much forthe amazing food!” Felix toldRosa.

“You’re welcome. Butpromise me that next timeyou’re coming to Gallinas,you’ll give me a call. I’d behappy to pick you up,” Rosasaid, hugging Karol good-bye.

And they were once againwalking down Main Street,with full bellies and renewedexcitement.

“Are we almost there?”Karol asked, when it seemedas if they were approachingthe other end of town.

“No, we’re not almostthere,” Hector said. “We arethere!” He stopped in front ofa large brick building. Theystood looking up at the bigsign hanging on the front,and they all knew that theyhad finally arrived.

pumpkins were grown inthe garden, said Ellis,who was assisting thestudents with carvingpumpkins last week.Students drew pictures

of jack-o-lanterns andthen attempted to carvethe pumpkins up accord-ing to the pictures theydrew.Afterward, the student

groups that helpedcarved the pumpkinsshowed them off in theirclassrooms to other stu-dents.In addition to carving

the pumpkins, the stu-dents also saved all of thepumpkin seeds and halfof them will be roasted forthe school and the otherhalf will be planted againto keep the new pumpkintradition alive.The students appeared

to be having a good timeas they cut open theirpumpkins and took outall of the guts and seeds.“It is important for

them to get a hands-onexperience,” Ellis said.“And it’s fun watchingthem take out all of thegooey stuff and the pump-kins seeds out.”

Ellis also said the proj-ect helps show the stu-dents where food comesfrom, and how food comesfrom other food.Kelsey Franklin, a sec-

ond-grader at Springcreek,said she loved the activityof carving pumpkins thatwere grown in the school’s

garden.“I like cutting it and

carving it,” said Franklin,who plans on dressing upas a vampire today. “I likedoing it all.”The school has four

gardens, which wereplanted with the help ofUpper Valley Career Cen-

ter, and some peach trees,all of which the studentsand teachers have tendedto for two years.The school also had a

salsa garden and whenthey harvested it earlierthis year made salsa fromtomatoes, peppers, garlicand onions.

husband Joe own and operatestores in Piqua, Troy and the Ger-man Village in Columbus. ThePiqua store is located in the FortPiqua Plaza.They also support two fran-

chises in Dayton.While chocolate may have made

a public entrance in 1961 with theopening of the Carriage House,Reiser says that candy has been apart of the family far longer thanthat, “I found an entry in mygreat-grandmother’s diary thattalks about them making candyfor my great-grandfather’s bakeryin 1929.”The secret to their longevity, ac-

cording to Rita Stevens, chiefcandy maker, is that “our choco-lates are made in small batches,with no preservatives and theyare never frozen like you wouldfind in bigger companies.”Dedicated to their family

recipe, Winans makes butter, or-ange and maple creams, toffees,Bavarian mints and wurtles, tohand-wrapped caramels and old-

fashioned brittles the old-fash-ioned way by using copper kettles.“Fresh daily is our key to suc-

cess,” Stevens said.Coffee plays a big part in the

business these days, too.Winans’ coffee has been voted

best in Dayton the last four yearsand as an avid coffee lover, JoeReiser has educated himself oncoffees from around the world.“We roast in the morning and

the beans are in the stores thatafternoon,” said Reiser. “Our cof-fees have added a whole new andfun side to our business.”Winans can ship all over the

world and handles large corporateorders during the holidays, butwill still pack a box as a customerwaits so they can choose their fa-vorite pieces.What are some of their cus-

tomer’s favorites?“Definitely anything made with

our caramel is very popular,” saysClara Hutton a Winans chocolatemaker for 42 years.The number of pounds of choco-

late that have been made by Hut-ton numbers in the hundreds of

thousands with even a specialchocolate piece created andnamed for her called the “MissClara.” It is a toffee piece withcaramels and wurtles.The Reiser’s are thankful for

their daily and holiday customerswho have been behind their con-tinued success and growth.Reiser added, “To our faithful

customers, we at Winans thankyou for keeping our family tradi-tion alive and for those of you whohave not yet tried Winans, maybeit is time to start a new tradition.”Winans will be host to the

Miami County Joint BusinessAfter Hours event from 5 to 7 p.m.Thursday, Nov. 17, at Winans FineChocolates and Coffee, 122 W.High St., Piqua.“There will be lots of people,

Editor’s Note: This is acontinuation of a series ofarticles reviewing localagencies that benefit fromthe United Way dollars.The Piqua United Way2011 campaign is cur-rently underway. Dona-tions collected in Piquawill stay in Piqua to assista variety of agencies.

PIQUA — Piqua Com-passion Network was cre-ated in 2007, throughcommunity partners tomeet the basic, legitimatesocial, physical and spiri-tual needs of Piqua resi-dents in crisis. Thisnetwork includes close totwenty churches, commu-nity organizations andneeds-meeting groups.PCN is a faith-basedgroup of volunteers andstaff acting as the handsand feet of Christ to meetindividual’s needs in thePiqua community with re-spect.The Piqua Compassion

Network is thankful to bea Piqua Area United WayMember Agency. Theirstated goal is not to feedthe cycle of need andpoverty but to breakthose cycles wheneverpossible. They havedemonstrated a passionto see struggling familiessucceed and move to anew level of living. To ac-complish this goal theywork through two mainprograms.Basic Needs Assistance

is the original work ofPCN; it was set up to bevery caring but alsosmart. In this founda-tional piece the primarygoal is to connect peoplewith available resourcesor vouchers — never cash.“PCN believes that it is

a waste of the gifts we re-ceive to re-invent thewheel,” said Ann Hoover,executive director. “There-fore, we collaborate withestablished services asmuch as possible. Whenthere is not a suitablematch for the need; weprovide vouchers to part-nering businesses in thecommunity.”At Piqua Compassion

Network, they believethat those who give to the

mission of PCN haveworked very hard to beable to provide carethrough them.They striveto utilize these giftswisely to enhance livesand help people overcomeobstacles so that they maybecome, or continue to beproductive, fulfilled citi-zens.Care Guides meet with

those who need help withutilities, prescriptions,rent, diapers, gasoline oreven work shoes. TheCare Guides listen, verifythe need and connect peo-ple with resources. Theyspeak about budgetingand a future plan.In 2010 the guides metwith more than 750 Piquaindividuals.To date thenumbers are even greaterin 2011.While the Basic Needs

program spreads careacross the community;Circles of Hope is a deep,tap root for people wholive in the cycle of genera-tional poverty and desireto move into a lifestyle ofstability.“Did you know that peo-

ple raised in generationalpoverty live by a differentset of family, social andwork rules than thosefrom financial stability?”Hoover asked. “Rules thatare passed down and ac-tually trap families in

poverty.”Circles of Hope in

Piqua was born from a na-tional anti-poverty incen-tive. The cost to maintaineven one child in povertyis devastating to a com-munity.“In Circles of Hope, we

are stepping alongsidefamilies, one at a time tobreak that cycle,” Hooversaid. “We teach familiesthe tools they need tomove from poverty intostability. That teaching ismatched with intensive,long term mentoring.”Since beginning in Au-

gust 2010, Piqua Circlesof Hope has impacted 12households. Proven meas-ures of success have been:eight individuals gainingor improving employ-ment, one family savedtheir home from foreclo-sure while others haveimproved their housingand two individuals areenrolled in college.PCN invites you to a

unique exercise — aPoverty SimulationThursday, Nov. 8 at PiquaBaptist Church 1402 W.High Street. This freeevent is from 6-8 p.m.

RSVP 778-8856 or mafick-enwirth@gmail.comPiqua Compassion Net-

work is located in the OldSouth Street School,which also houses theBethany Center. Volun-teers are available tomeet with those who mayhave a need Mondaythrough Thursday 10 a.m.and 2 p.m. If an individualis working and cannotcome to the Center duringthose hours another timecan be arranged to meet.PCN can be reached at778-8856.How can you join in the

work of Piqua Compas-sion Network?“Volunteer: In our vol-

unteers we request a car-ing heart and requireconfidentiality,” Hooversaid.“Like so many grass

roots organizations theassistance we give comesfrom contributions. Wepromise that the gifts wereceive at PCN are highlyvalued and given withgreat care. Pray for thosein crisis and for our CareGuides that they wouldhave insight as they meetwith people.”

the state of Ohio for thepast three years.Hay was born in Mo-

bile, Ala., but her familymoved to Ohio when shewas five years old. Shegraduated from Coldwa-ter High School in 1978.She played trumpet in theband, kept stats for foot-ball, and ran track for theCavaliers. She workedpart-time at a local jew-elry store and was activein her church, teachingCCD classes.“I always had an inter-

est in becoming a teacher,”she said. “My father was aspecial education supervi-sor in Auglaize County,and I helped out at the el-ementary school duringmy high school studyhalls.” She enrolled at theUniversity of Dayton andmajored in elementaryand special education.She lived on campus dur-ing the summers and re-ceived her bachelor’sdegree in only three years.She graduated with tophonors, summa cum-laude.Her first job was as an

intervention specialist forgrades K-8 for AdaSchools. She was therefour years. In 1983, shemarried, and she startedpost graduate classes atthe University of Daytonand achieved a master’sdegree in education ad-ministration in 1986. “Iwas encouraged to getinto administration by mysuperintendent CleteBiersack,” she said. “Heread to my kindergartenstudents once a month.”Tragically, he was killedin a car accident afterschool on a day he read tothe students. Hay has apicture of him in her officetoday. “He taught me toalways care about each in-dividual and to do my besteach and every day.”The couple moved to

Delaware County, andHay became a supplemen-tal service teacher for thecounty. “I worked on mod-ifying curriculum for stu-dents with special needs,”she said. “After five years,we decided to move backto Coldwater.”She spent nine years as

a kindergarten teacher forColdwater, then, she wasnamed elementary princi-pal, a position she held fornine years until shetransferred to Piqua CitySchools. “I needed a pro-fessional change and anew challenge,” she said.Indeed, that is exactly

what she got. The anti-quated building is busting

at the seams with 290 stu-dents and a staff of 24.The roof develops con-stant new leaks. The out-dated boiler is unable tokeep a comfortable tem-perature in the building,and failing mortar allowsrain to seep thru the out-side walls. The building isnot handicap accessible.“We really need new, safefacilities for our kids andstaff,” she said. “Our stu-dents deserve the modern,updated buildings to be-come 21st century learn-ers. The bond issue istruly a once in a lifetimeopportunity.”Hay is quick to credit

her staff for making themost of the situation. “TheSpringcreek staff is veryenergetic and dedicated.They work as a team,” shesaid. “They are concernedabout all the students, notjust the ones in theirclassroom.” She truly en-joys working with herstaff and appreciates alltheir efforts, time, and tal-ents.As the building leader,

Hay encourages herteachers to try newthings. “I’ve been in edu-cation 28 years, but I’mstill learning,” she said.“There is always some-thing new to try out anddevelop.”Her success as a princi-

pal has been recognizedlocally and nationally.Last year, Hay was namedMiami County Educatorof the Year. In 2007, shewas Ohio’s representativeas a National Distin-guished Principal. “Therewas one principal fromevery state.We spent fourdays being escortedaround Washington, D.C.and meeting importantpeople,” she said. “Wewere given a special tourof the White House andthe Capitol.”At home, Hay enjoys

scrapbooking, vacationingand relaxing by the lake.She and her husband Jim,retired from special edu-cation with Lima CitySchools, have been mar-ried 29 years. The Hayshave a goal of visitingevery major league base-ball stadium. They re-cently attended games ofthe Houston Astros andthe San Diego Padres.Thecouple has a son and adaughter. Kristin is aspeech pathologist withMiami County. Michael isa high school scienceteacher in Mount Dora,Florida and a football,girls’ weightlifting, andbaseball coach.

Have you seen that new television ad supporting Sen-ate BIll 5, promising it to be the salvation of our stateeconomy and making jobs fall from the sky?This particular one claims that government employees

are earning 43 percent more in salary and benefits than“the rest of us.”Of course “the rest of us” is never defined.I wonder if they are thoseDP&L executiveswhowill eachreap millions once the sale of another Dayton born andraised company is completed. It’s notmy sister-in-lawwhomakes $13,000 running the library in her hometown’smiddle school. I hope public employeeswithDoctorate de-grees are making 43 percent more than big box storegreeters.This new ad now refers to “government workers” in-

stead of “public employees” like earlier ads. I’m impressedwith the grammatical verbal trick. Your neighbor mightbe that public employee who teaches your kids or plowsyour street or saves your home from burning down. But“governmentworkers”depersonalizes the attack utilizingthe cultivated image of anything government as big andbad hopefully making you more susceptible to being in-fluenced. Perhaps these “gov-ernment workers making 43percent more than the rest ofus” are the Republicans inColumbuswho crafted SB5 inthe first place.Focusing on Ohio’s public

school system, SB5 is simplyanother attempt by the partyin power (for most of myadult life) to again dodgetheir constitutional responsi-bility to provide for the pub-lic education of our state’schildren.Ohio’s schools have been used as the poster child for

every tax proposal coming down the pike. Just pass thisstamp act (my wife and I recall collecting these as youngchildren) or this statewide income tax, or this lottery, andschools will be amply rewarded. I once read an analysisthat showed schools could have gold plated faucets ifevery dime of new taxes actually had gone to the schoolsas promised and not reapportioned elsewhere.During Governor Rhodes’ terms in the 60s, Ohio’s

schools received bad press nationallywhenmany districtsbegan closing their doors and sending kids home for thesummer before the end of the school year (some as earlyas Easter) because they were running out of money.Rhodes’ response was to get a law passed making it ille-gal for schools to close early and forcing them to borrowfrom the state instead.A big blow came in the early 70swhen another lawwas

passed changing school tax levies. Up to this time, levieswere based on amillage applied against property values.As property values rose, so did funding covering the in-creasing costs of doing business due to inflation.The newlaw said voters no longerwere voting on a specificmillagebut rather a dollar amount that a certain millage wouldraise. Then as property values rose, millage was rolledback to keep the dollar amount collected the same aswhatwas voted. Now you know why schools have been on theballot every 2-3 years. Inflation raises costs but dollars re-main constant unless additional dollars are voted in.In the 90s, Ohio’s schools again got bad press when it

became known our school buildingswere crumbling.Chil-dren in southeastern Ohio were being forced to cross thestreet to use bathrooms at gas stations because the onesin their schools were broken. Instead of using generalfund appropriations for a building campaign, the state puttobacco settlement money (scheduled to be used else-where) into a pot that could be used to share the cost ofnew buildings but only IF districts also decided to taxthemselves for a portion.Many districts with aging facil-ities are still on this list. But the bad press is gone sinceschool children no longer need to cross the street to pee.Then there are the three separate State Supreme

Court rulings that explicitly said the way Ohio funds it’sschools is unconstitutional andmust be changedwith lessreliance on property taxes. Notice any changes yet? TheRepublican response has been one big collective yawn.Additionally, we now have vouchers and charter

schools,which all seemingly are designed to chip away atour constitutionally mandated public system.Thus comes SB5.Proponents say teachers can still bar-

gain for wages. Not true. If a board wants to cut wages,say 10 percent, but the teachers union asks for a 3 per-cent raise instead,an impasse exists andSB5 allowsman-agement to impose it’s settlement. If teachers strike, theirwages can be docked.The same can happen for class size.This is not bargaining.Senate Bill 5 is just another promised fix all dressed up

to sell.Vote “NO.”Gary Ogg is a retired elementary school principal. He

lives south of Casstown with his wife of 40 years, Kathy,alongwith twoDachshunds,Cinder andElla.Ogg receiveda bachelor’s degree in family/child development fromTheOhio State University, a master’s in school administrationfrom the University of Cincinnati and a masters’ in coun-seling from the University of Dayton.

To the Editor:How often do you get a chance to help

your children, grandchildren, or friendswith a 48 percent discount on your gift.Our neighbors were smart enough to

say yes and they now have new schoolfacilities. Look at Houston, Miami East,Bradford, Versailles and others.We need to be smart and say “yes” to

the 48 percent discount and build newefficient schools rather then spend thesame amount or more dollars to updateand maintain outdated facilities.Our forefathers built the schools for

us and now it is our turn to do the samefor our future generations, at a dis-counted price.If you don’t own property, the new

schools will be provided to you at littleor no costs. The new schools likewise,will be attractive and will bring in newindustry and will result in better payingjobs to the area.Do not pass up this sale. The state

might not have this money again.It only makes cents.

—Tom and Cheryl BueckerPiqua

To the Editor:On Nov. 8, Piqua voters

are being asked to makean investment in the fu-ture of Piqua’s students.Piqua City Schools hasbeen offered nearly halfthe funding needed to con-struct three state of theart elementary buildings.These new facilities willbring together the best infacilities, technology, andenergy efficiency that willserve our students well formany years to come.When our present

buildings were con-structed, they were cut-ting edge. However, aswith all things material,their time has come andgone.Piqua’s funding offer

from the State of Ohio istruly a once in a lifetimeopportunity that we can-not afford to pass up. Oneway or another, Piqua cit-izens will have to addressthe issue of aging and in-efficient buildings. Formany years our tax dol-lars have been buildingnew schools in our neigh-boring districts. Isn’t ittime that our tax dollarsflow back into Piqua inthe form of three new, upto date schools that wecan be proud of?

Local readerasks supportfor Issue 2

Readers say levy makes ‘cents’

To the Editor:Sections: 120, 121, 122, 125 and 127:

We need to bring our charter sections onrecall up to date with the charters ofover 150 other charter cities throughoutOhio and to be consistent with thesegoverning provisions throughout thestate.We went through a special recall elec-

tion where you only needed 1,000 regis-tered voters’ signatures on a petition forrecall and as a result that election costus, the taxpayers in Piqua, over $17,000and was soundly defeated by the smartvoting citizens of Piqua, 73 percent to 27percent. So let’s vote for Section 121,which will require 2,000 registered vot-ers’ signatures on a petition for recall. A

recall is a very serious thing and shouldrequire serious thought and work. Also,Section 127 sets a limit of at least sixmonths in office before a commissionercan be recalled instead of three — onlycommon sense. Section 120 will requirea reason for recall — common sense. Sec-tion 125 will allow the planning com-mission to appoint a member to thecommission when a commissioner hasbeen recalled and there were no candi-dates’ names on the ballot to be elected.We won’t need a costly special election

again. Let’s vote for all of these commonsense amendment sections: 120, 121,122, 125 and 127.

—Frank H. BarhorstPiqua

Former mayor backs amendments

To the Editor:The proposed school levy is being pro-

moted through “smoke and mirrors” andoutright untruths.There will be no boost to the economy

or new jobs created if this boondogglepasses. Almost all of the contractors willcome from out of town, as will construc-tion materials, except maybe concrete,and I’m pretty sure even that can bebrought in from outside Piqua. Most ofthe workers will bring box lunches andcoolers to work.Local jobs will be eliminated, not cre-

ated. It’s a simple law of economics.Raise taxes and people have less dispos-able income to purchase things.A comparison was made to “only a

pizza a month.” If thousands of Piquadsdon’t buy pizza or whatever else theyspend money on because it goes forhigher taxes, it’s easy to see how thiswill reduce business income.This is whyKmart closed, leading to job loss. Whatstore will be next?Remember, they haven’t started col-

lecting the tax increase for the “whiteelephant” library. That, plus this tax in-crease will raise most people’s propertytax by 20-30 percent. Opportunity? No,It will be a monumental local economicdisaster.The old hospital will be raised regard-

less of how the vote goes. It was inprocess and settled before this schoolissue came about. It’s a non issue to usethis as a selling point by the “citizenswho wish to vote themselves benefitsfrom the public treasury” crowd at theexpense of others — the public treasurybeing the taxpayers, for the state andcounty have no money. Anything theyhave comes from tax collections.So, “free” money from the state is a

myth. We paid this in property values?Already high property and other taxesmake Ohio and expecially Piqua a veryundesirable place for businesses and in-dustry to locate. A recent interview witha captain of industry said “Ohio is thelast place they would want to come in.”The three other non public school sys-

tems in this town have the same build-ing maintenance and update issuespublic schools have and are meetingthem without complaining, crying andwhining, and wanting more money fromanyone who lives and breathes (also thenot living) just because they live in thearea, whether they are affiliated withpublic schools or not.To protect local jobs and the economy,

make sure to vote against this tax in-crease.

Most of the top playersuse natural bidding, butsome employ highly artifi-cial methods to improvetheir chances of reachingthe perfect contract onevery deal. Today’s hand,on which North-South

reached the perfect con-tract of seven clubs on a 4-3 fit, provides an aptillustration.The deal occurred in the

annual Reisinger teamchampionship. North wasRon Rubin, and South wasMike Becker, both multi-national champions. Theyreached the club grandslam after one of thelongest bidding sequenceson record.It started with a normal

one-spade bid by North,but from then on mostbids were artificial, withSouth asking North ateach turn to describe hishand. Two clubs was arti-ficial and game-forcing,and two hearts showedunbalanced distribution.Three diamonds overEast’s double of twohearts indicated preciselyfive spades and four dia-monds!

Three hearts was onceagain artificial and said“Tell me more.” Threespades showed one heartand three clubs!Four clubs said “Tell me

more,” and four diamondssaid “I have a minimumopening bid.” Four heartsasked for the number ofcontrols (ace equals two,king equals one), and fourspades showed three. Fournotrump asked “Whereare they?”Five diamonds showed

the king of clubs; fivehearts said “Tell memore.” Five notrumpshowed the ace of spadesand denied the queen ofdiamonds!So Becker concluded

that his partner had bothblack queens for his open-ing bid and therefore bidseven clubs, which hemade easily after ruffing aheart in the dummy.

Purists will note thatonly with clubs as trumpcan 13 tricks be made.Only 12 tricks are avail-able in either spades ornotrump.

Tomorrow: Look beforeyou leap.

DEAR ABBY: I was re-cently invited to a secondcousin’s wedding showerand wedding. To be honestwith you, if I saw thebride-to-be on the street, Iwouldn’t recognize her. Al-though I won’t be going toher shower, I am sendinga shower gift. I plan on at-tending the wedding be-cause I don’t see this sideof the family often.My question is, what

gift should I give thehappy couple for theirwedding? When I got mar-ried, her parents gave mea pair of used vases. Howcould I tell they wereused, you ask? Not onlywere they not in theiroriginal packaging, butthey also were dirty. Abby,there were dead flies inthem! Being a well-man-nered bride, I didn’t men-tion this to my parents,but to this day I still re-member.

— WANTS TO DOTHE RIGHT THING

DEAR WANTS: Until Isaw your signature, I wastempted to suggest youwash and polish the vases,then nicely wrap and sendone to your cousin with anote of congratulations,closing with “… more tofollow.” But knowing youwant to do the “right”thing, I’m asking you toplease not blame her forthe actions of her parents,who may have been finan-cially strapped at the timeof your wedding. Then findout where she and her fi-ance are registered andsend them somethingthat’s within your budget.

DEAR ABBY: My hus-band and I have beenmarried for eight yearsand are amazed that mostof our married friends areunable to separate foreven a night.I was raised in a house-

hold where my parentstook time for themselves— whether it was mydad’s high school reunionthat Mom had no interestin, or my mom’s personalgrowth seminars that Dadwas slow to accept. Itworked for 48 years untilMom’s death.The wife of one couple

we know refused to attendour high school reunion,so her husband didn’t goeither — even thoughmany of his close friendswould be in attendance.He doesn’t make plans forhimself because every-thing has to be run pasthis wife.Does our culture create

insecurity? Have we lostour independence?

— INDEPENDENTTHINKER

DEAR INDEPEND-ENT: No. You have de-scribed a man who ispassive and prefers toleave the social schedul-ing to his wife. I don’tthink it has anything todo with our culture.Many couples operatethis way by mutualagreement, and youshouldn’t take it person-ally.

DEAR ABBY: I’m asingle, never-married, 50-year-old male. I have nochildren and was raisedwith strict, conservativeChristian values that Ihave held onto all theseyears. I have never hadany long-term relation-ships.Recently I met a single

gal at work, and we enjoyeach other’s company.Our backgrounds, how-ever, are very different.She has been marriedtwice and has two chil-dren. In addition, neitherof her children was con-ceived from either of hermarital unions.My question is, would

our diverse backgroundsimpede the fostering of ahealthy relationship, or isthis something worthpursuing?

— RELATIONSHIP-CHALLENGED

DEAR RELATION-SHIP-CHALLENGED:It depends on whetherthe two of you can have ameeting of the minds aswell as a meeting of thehearts, and whether youare flexible enough to ac-cept her just as she is andvice versa.

A NOTE TO PAR-ENTS OF YOUNGCHILDREN: Tonight isthe night when weewitches and goblins col-lect their loot. Please su-pervise them so they’ll besafe.

NEW YORK (AP) —YouTube is making a boldstep into original pro-gramming in an enter-tainment venture withsome 100 content cre-ators, from Madonna toThe Wall Street Journal.The Google Inc.-owned

video site said Friday thatit’s launching more than100 new video channels.The partners include anarray of Hollywood produc-tion companies, celebritiesand new media groupsthat will produce mainlyniche-oriented videos.YouTube is shelling out

$100 million to producers,according to people famil-iar with the matter, whospoke on condition ofanonymity. The money is

an advance on advertisingmoney the videos willbring in, and Google willrecoup its portion first be-fore splitting the pro-ceeds. Advances are ashigh as $5 million perchannel, said another per-son familiar with thearrangement, also speak-ing on condition ofanonymity.Neither person was au-

thorized to comment pub-licly on the matter.Google declined to offer

financial details of thedeals, but said the major-ity of revenue will go topartners.Participants include

Madonna, former NBAstar Shaquille O’Neal, co-median Amy Poehler,actor Ashton Kutcher, “Of-fice” star Rainn Wilson,spiritual doctor DeepakChopra and “Modern

Family” actress Sofia Ver-gara. Most are creatingchannels through theirproduction companies.Madonna is a partnerwith the dance channelDanceOn, while O’Nealplans the Comedy ShaqNetwork.Lionsgate is presenting

a fitness channel, andother channels will belaunched by news satirethe Onion, professionalwrestling’s WWE, onlinemagazine Slate and newsservice Thomson Reuters.The channels will roll

out beginning this month,though most will pre-miere next year. YouTubesays the channels will add25 hours of new originalcontent daily, with dozensof Web series debuting atscheduled times.Ultimately, YouTube is

aiming to create a new

digital video platform thatwill rival television pro-gramming.In a blog posting Friday

night, YouTube said thechannels are being devel-oped “specifically for thedigital age.” The video sitecompared the expandedvideo offerings to the ad-vent of cable television.YouTube has tried to

build a more advertiser-friendly product of profes-sional-quality video, asopposed to simply user-created videos. Advertis-ers generally prefer tohave their ads matchedwith known quantities.YouTube has also previ-ously tried to urge view-ers to stay longer withTV-like services like theYouTube Leanback, whichcontinuously plays a per-sonalized selection ofvideos.

BY JIM DAVISOhio Community Mediadavis@tdnpublishing.com

TROY — Cynde Sroufestill remembers going toHobart Arena as a child.She took skating lessons

there, caught a few TroySabres games with herdad, Dale, and distinctlyremembers going to a con-cert in the mid 90s when alittle-known countrysinger by the name of Mar-tina McBride made a stopin Troy.The names and events

may have changed, butSroufe said she continuesto enjoy the historic venueon Adams Street. Just in adifferent way.As an usher, ticket

taker, concessionaire andassistant pool managernext door at the TroyAquatic Park, Sroufe getsto see firsthand how thearena has taken on a re-newed sense of importancein the community.“The facility itself is just

awesome … with all theupdates and the new seat-ing. And the events justkeep getting better andbetter all the time,” shesaid, rattling off a list ofrecent acts that have cometo Hobart, ranging fromventriloquist Terry Fatorand classic rock band For-

eigner to former vice pres-idential candidate SarahPalin, Christian rock bandThird Day and countrystar Luke Bryan. “Peoplewill continue to show up atthe events that (Hobart)continues to host.“And I think it’s neat,

too, because people fromout-of-town who had neverbeen to Troy came herejust for those shows.”Long before she started

working at Hobart in2005, Sroufe, who lives inTroy with her husband,Jason, and 1 and a half-year-old daughter Cher,said she was a regular atmany of the arena’s activi-ties.“We spent tons of time

there. I took ice skatinglessons there when I was 5or 6 … and I had those lit-tle dresses like all the goodskaters used to have,” shesaid. “I can still rememberbeing out there and themtrying to teach us to do fig-ure 8s.“I also remember people

getting bloody noses …and how it would seepdown into the ice and youcould still see it the nexttime you came out,” shesaid with a laugh. “And Iremember being in awe ofthe Zamboni. I didn’t knowwhat they were doing, butI remember the ice always

being smooth afterward.”When she wasn’t skat-

ing on the Hobart ice, shewas watching other peopleon it — including the TroySabres minor leaguehockey team.“My dad used to take

me to the Sabres games …and I was in love withBernie Chiverelli (whoplayed in Troy from 1983-85 and 1986-89),” shejoked. “Dad would get tick-ets and he would pick oneof us to go. And for what-ever reason, they alwaysplayed Danville when wewent.”Along the way she saw

41st U.S. President GeorgeHerbert Bush speak atHobart, and the aforemen-tioned Martina McBrideconcert — at which shehad front-row seats. ButSroufe, who graduatedfrom Eastern MichiganUniversity and nowteaches math at North-western High School, saidnow that she’s an adultand has a family of herown she’s gained a differ-ent perspective on thearena Arena.For one, she’s able to

work there part-time, andwas even able to workwith her mother, Sharon,for a short time beforehealth issues forced hermom to stop. But most ofall, Sroufe said she enjoysbumping into people fromthe community she other-wise might not see.

“I think it’s all the dif-ferent people that you see,whether it’s working thepublic ice skating eventsor the concerts. There arejust so many differentkinds of people that cometo the arena,” she said.“You get to see a broadrange of people who live in

the community that youmight not get to see otherplaces, and that’s kind ofcool.”Hobart Arena Assistant

Manager Carrie Slatersaid that friendly outlookand a good work ethicmake her a good fit for Ho-bart.

“She’s just a jack-of-all-trades and a wonderfulperson,” said Slater, whohas worked with Sroufeboth inside the arena andat the Troy Aquatic Park.“She’s a dedicated worker,works with minimal su-pervision and has a superpersonality.”

Monday, Oct. 31, 2011You’ve learned some valuable lessonsin the past and you won’t repeat thesame mistakes in the coming year, soyou are now ready to move on to moreadvanced assignments. Make themost of what is handed to you.SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Invit-ing someone to an informal gatheringwith friends may not be as thoughtfulas you intended. If this person doesn’tfit in, it could spoil the fun for every-one.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) —Make sure you can keep all your com-mitments, because someone to whomyou make a promise will take you atyour word and plan his or her entireday around what you say.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Al-though you may mean well, the wayyou manage the resources of anothermay turn out to be a terrible mistakeand result in a huge loss. Your inten-tions are good but irresponsible.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Intrying to complete a specific assign-ment, you might take on an ally inhopes of finishing it sooner. Sadly, theperson you choose could only makematters worse.PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — If youhave to deal with an assignment thatyou do not fully understand, don’tpretend you can handle it. Don’t letyour pride inhibit you from request-ing the help you sorely need.ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Put offtaking any financial gambles — theodds simply aren’t in your favor forthe moment. It would also be smart toprevent anyone else from making acommitment for you.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) —All thewishing in the world won’t makethings happen the way you wantthem to, so if it’s possible, put off allimportant scheduled events until an-other day.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Beforeyou rely on any gossip, check outeverything yourself. Regardless ofhow long it takes to verify something,it’s vital that you don’t take at facevalue what is being said.CANCER (June 21-July 22) — If yourresources aren’t being prudentlymanaged, there is a chance you couldrespond in a way that could be costlyat a later date. Take time to figurethings out.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Even if youknow what changes need to be imple-mented concerning your family, youcould let haste push you into makinga major gaffe. Slow down and thinkcarefully before you upset the applecart.VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Youshould take care not to allow youremotions to influence your judgment.The way things are in the real worldand the way you perceive them couldbe galaxies apart.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) —Although,many times, business can mix verycomfortably with social arrange-ments, this will not be so at present.Do all that you can to keep the twoseparated.COPYRIGHT 2011 UNITED FEA-TURE SYNDICATE, INC.

TROY — You mightthink the highlight of theday for Versailles juniorSam Prakel was establish-ing a new boys Division IIIregional cross countryrecord in winning the raceat Troy Saturday in

15:32.74.But, that came 30 min-

utes later, when it becameofficial the Tiger boys fin-ished second to return tothe state meet as a teamfor the first time since2005. They will be joinedat state by Russia, whofinished fourth.“No, no,” Prakel said. “I

am a lot more excited

about what we did as ateam. I am just so happyfor our team. They haveall worked hard and it isgoing to be a lot more funhaving all those guys overthere running with me atstate.”Versailles coach Mark

Pleiman’s reaction toldthe story.“The boys are back (at

state),” Pleiman said withemotion in both his voiceand his eyes. “That wasmy first year as coach. Itreally means a lot to me tosee them get back tostate.”As for the winner, that

was never in doubt.Prakel blitzed the field,

finishing more than 36seconds ahead of Tri-Vil-

lage’s Clayton Murphy,who finished second.“I had some tough races

here,” Prakel said. “I knewif I was going to get the re-gional record, I was goingto have to run by myselfand push myself. I got therecord, so I am very happywith my race today.”

in a comfort zone at thestart of the race.“I was probably more

“We came back there inthe first game and tied itup,” he said. “Then, theymade a few adjustmentsand we never were able torespond to that. Therewere times when Ithought we took a step for-ward from previous years.“But, we just have to

have better passing. Wewere fine when the passeswere on target. This is thekind of match where yourpassing has to be sharpthe entire match and thatjust didn’t happentonight.”The Lady Indians fin-

ished the season with a19-6 record, its best markin a number of years.“I thought we did take a

step forward,” he said.“There were a fewmatches we could havewon that we didn’t, but ithas been a good season.”Davis sees a bright fu-

ture with the Piqua pro-gram.“I am excited to see

what next year brings,”Davis said. “We are losingtwo great players.

will play Anna at 6 p.m.Wednesday at TrentArena in a Kettering re-gional semifinal.“Once the first set was

through, we knew we werein control,” Miami Eastcoach John Cash said. “Wewere crisp in that first set.We came out and executedwell.“We ran our game plan.

It got a little sloppy later

on, but I think the girlsmay have been in the mo-ment a little too early.”It is the Lady Vikings

first district title in 12years.“It’s been a long time

since we have won the dis-trict title (1999),” Cashsaid. “The girls were ex-cited.”Big service runs by Allie

Millhouse and Sam Cashallowed East to jump outto a 24-4 lead in the open-ing game.But, Taylor (17-8) hung

around in the second andthird games, but MiamiEast’s blocking was toomuch for them.“We changed our tempo

up front a little bit,” Cashsaid. “We are usually moreof a passive blocking team.But, Taylor sets the balltight to the net, so we hadto get up higher and pressour hands further.“From this point on,

teams are going to be run-ning their offense tighterto the net. We have got tobe able to stop the ball.”Sam Cash had 13 kills,

the current Lehman play-ers had been born the lasttime the Lady Cavaliersweren’t playing in the re-gional tournament.“It is pretty amazing,”

Lehman coach GregSnipes. “The coaches weretalking about it and Idon’t think the players re-ally think that muchabout the streak.”Lehman, 23-3, will play

Fort Loramie in the sec-ond match Thursday inthe Tipp City D-IV re-gional semifinals atTippecanoe High School.The Lady Cavaliers

Erica Paulus ace and killby Waldsmith, before theStingers played themevenly the rest of thegame.“I thought we were re-

ally sharp at the start,”Snipes said. “It was disap-pointing we didn’t do abetter job of finishing offthat first game, but Ithought we did a muchbetter job the last twogames.”And there are big

matches ahead.“We know we are going

to have some closematches,” Snipes said. “Wehad some matches at sec-tionals and district thatweren’t that close, but itgets more difficult witheach match.”Schmitmeyer had 12

ARCANUM — In spiteof sealing their secondstraight 10-0 regular sea-son, second straight CrossCounty Conference titleand tenth title in the lastthirteen years — plus se-curing the twelfth playoffbirth in thirteen seasons— their wasn't much cele-bration for the CovingtonBuccaneers after a 34-0win over Arcanum on Fri-day."That's probably be-

cause this was such aphysical game," explainedCovington coach DaveMiller as to why his teamwasn't animated after thewin. "I know the kids areexcited about what theydid (finishing 10-0), butthey know there is more todo. They're looking for-ward to the next chal-lenge."That challenge is the

state playoffs.The Buccs locked down

the fourth seed in Region20 and will host Coldwa-ter Friday night."We're not sure who

we'll face," Miller saidafter Friday’s game."There's always specula-tion that we'll see thisteam or that team, but wewon't know for sure untilprobably Sunday."Until then the Buccs

will review the film fromFriday's season finaleagainst Arcanum. And you can be assured

Miller saw plenty ofthings his team needs towork on."Definitely," Miller

agreed. "We weren't verysharp offensively in thefirst half and I know a lotof that was on me. Theythrew some things at usdefensively that I wasn'texpecting and I didn't do avery good job of makingthe adjustments in myplay calling."Still, Covington's de-

fense was stellar all night,keeping Arcanum off theboard and giving theBuccs great field positionin the first half.The short field for the

Buccs resulted in a one-yard touchdown run byTrent Tobias in the firstquarter to give Covingtona 7-0 lead.But Covingon fumbled

on their its possession asthe offense was in theprocess of moving the ballinto scoring range in thesecond quarter."We turned the ball over

there in the first halfwhen we were drivingand I think that gavethem some momentum,"Miller explained. "Fortu-nately for us, our defensestepped up and kept themoff the board."Leading 7-0 to start the

second half, Covington fi-nally got the big play itneeded. Junior fullback Alex

Baskerville found a creaseup the middle and raced82 yards for the score anda 13-0 lead as a mis-han-dled snap on the point-after attempt preventedthe extra point."We hit the big play

there by Alex and I thinkthat got us going offen-sively," Miller said. "Youdon't want to rely on bigplays to get you going, butthat came at a good time."Because it not only

sparked the Covington of-fense, it added fuel to thefire for the Buccaneer de-fense, which gave the of-fense the ball back with athree-and-out.And the offense took ad-

vantage with a well exe-cuted drive that wascapped by a five-yard runby Kyler Deeter.Steven Blei made true

on the extra point attemptto push Covington's leadto 20-0 with one quarter toplay."Defensively we con-

trolled the line of scrim-mage and I think that wascritical," said Miller. "They

do some nice things offen-sively and the key for uswas controlling them upfront."The Covington defense

continued to come throughin the fourth quarter asSam Earick picked off aTrojan pass near midfield.Covington's offense

then picked up where itleft off, driving the ballmethodically down thefield and putting the ballin the end zone on a five-yard run by Isaiah Win-ston."Isaiah wasn't feeling

very good," Miller said ofhis senior quarterback-slash-slot back. "He hadsome stomach issues thereand was throwing up. Buthe sucked it up and playedhard."After another defensive

stop, the Buccs put an ex-clamation point on a solideffort with one final driveto pay dirt.Trent Tobias walked in

from a yard out for his sec-ond touchdown of thenight and Steven Bleidrilled the extra point tomake the final score 34-0."This was a tough win,"

said Miller. "They (Ar-canum) had a lot riding

on this game with seniornight and the possibilityof getting into the play-offs, so they gave us theirbest shot. They arescrappy and they cameafter us."Covington took all the

Trojans could give andmethodically put togetheran impressive effort.And even though indi-

vidual statistics don'tmean much in the grandscheme of things for theBuccaneers, the 177-yardperformance by AlexBaskerville put him over1,000 yards on the season."That's a nice accom-

plishment by Alex, buthe'll be the first to tell youthat his line had a lot to dowith that," said Miller.Still, its not about indi-

vidual numbers for theBuccs, but team numbers.And the most important

number is 10-0 and ahome game in the stateplayoffs."It's a new challenge

and a new season," Millersaid of the playoffs. "We'll give it our best

shot."Which will happen on

Friday night against Cold-water.

to have that number onenext to your first runner,”Pleiman said. “Sam(Prakel) is an amazingrunner.“He was at 10 minutes

after two miles. I knewthat was a little bit fasterthan normal.”And the rest of the

Tigers had great days aswell.Michael Wenig was

13th in 16:56.63; whileSam Subler was 21st in17:20.83.“Garret (Rose) had a

tough time today, but boydid those guys step up,”Pleiman said. “Michael(Wenig) ran a PR andbroke 17 for the first time,Sam (Subler) was right athis PR. You can go rightdown the line.”

Francis advanced as in-dividuals.“When, I looked after I

got done, I saw our teamwas doing really well,”Berger said. “I was reallyhappy to see that. That’swhat we run for and weare hoping to do well nextweek.”As for Berger, who has

had some close races inpast years at the regional,it was a fourth straighttop three finish at the re-gional meet and her sec-ond straight regional title.“I just try and go out

and run my best,” Bergersaid. “Of course, there issome pressure (being atwo-time state champion).If I run my very best, thenI have done everything Ican do for my team.”And she didn’t mind the

change in the course, dueto construction on thebridge near Hobart Arena.“It probably was a good

thing,” she said. “Becausewe are going to be runninga different course at statethis year (the meet isbeing held at NationalTrail Raceway). It will benew for everyone.”Versailles put three

Heitkamp was not sur-prised by Roeth’s perform-ance.“She had beaten that

girl (Meghan Vogel) atAnna,” Heitkamp said.“Allison’s (Roeth) goal wasto be in the top three, somaybe she was just happywith that.“I am not sure. The only

thing that matters is shehas another race nextweek.”Roeth enjoyed the com-

petition with Vogel.“We push each other

and make each other bet-ter,” Roeth said. “I justwant to thank God forblessing me with this tal-ent and giving me the op-portunity to compete atthis level.”Houston junior Nico-

COLUMBUS (AP) —Three weeks ago, Wiscon-sin seemed to be cruisingtoward a season to re-member, unbeaten and inthe running for a shot at anational championship.Meanwhile, Ohio State

was 0-2 in conference playand seemingly playing outthe string in a seasonbeset with NCAA prob-lems, suspensions and badbreaks.How quickly things

have changed.The Badgers, once No. 4

and considered an eliteteam, have been deflatedby two soul-crushing de-feats on successive Satur-

day nights on the road.The Buckeyes, their

season all but written off,now find themselves astrong contender to playin the first Big Ten cham-pionship game — if theyget a little help.Two teams, different

outcomes, different per-spectives. One is down,the other feels it hasturned the corner."We always believe

everything happens for areason," Wisconsin coachBret Bielema said afterhis team's latest hard-luckloss.It's difficult to imagine

what the reasons would be

behind two weeks ofheartache.In one of the most re-

played videos of this orany college season, theBadgers famously lost atMichigan State on Oct. 22.Then, seven days al-

most to the minute, Wis-consin was struck againby late, long TD pass.On Saturday night at

Ohio Stadium, the Buck-eyes' Braxton Millerlooped a 40-yard touch-down pass to wide-openDevin Smith with 20 sec-onds remaining. TheBadgers ran off four moreplays but could not pull offsome magic of their own.

FAIRBORN — For thePiqua football seniors, itprobably would have beenhard to draw up a betterway to end the season.Piqua pounded Fair-

born 34-6 Friday night forits third straight convinc-ing victory to finish 6-4,that last two coming overtwo team with winningrecords.And they did it with for-

mer Piqua great BrandonSaine of the Green BayPackers, watching fromthe sidelines.But, Piqua coach Bill

Nees said it was not anydifferent than the team hesaw all year.“Yes, we played well the

last three games,” Neessaid. “But, I thought theyplayed well every Friday.We had nine good games— yes, we had a bad gameagainst Troy and weadmit that.”While it looks like

Piqua will miss the post-season, they are certainlyplaying like a team thatcould do a lot of damage inthe postseason.“It is a great way to fin-

ish,” Piqua running backJon Dembski, who fin-ished near the 1,400-yardmark rushing for the sea-son said. “I think we defi-nitely are (playing theirbest football right now).”And it was Dembski

and quarterback TaylorWellbaum combining forfive touchdowns.“This feels great,” Well-

baum said. “What you sawthe last three weeks, whatyou saw tonight wasPiqua football. That is theway we should have beenplaying for the last threeyears.”On Fairborn’s first pos-

session the Skyhawkswere driving when quar-terback KendrickWilliams had the balltaken out of his hands andBrandon Pummill recov-ered.On the Skyhawks next

possession, they went 44yards in three plays, withWilliams running it infrom eight yard out for a6-0 lead.But, it was all Piqua

after that.For the second straight

week, a potent offense waslimited to less than 200yards by Piqua’s “D”. Andsafety Travis Nees cappedhis career with two inter-ceptions.“It feels great,” Nees

said. “It was a great effortby everyone on the fieldtonight. The defense is aclose unit and we defi-nitely came together andstepped up the last threeweeks.”Bill Nees said defensive

penetration was a key.Solomon Carnes, JordanFeeser, Kevin Richardsonand Mike Haney, alongwith linebackers BradDotson and Pummill, wereall involved in sacks dur-ing the game.“I thought the key (to

stopping Fairborn) waswhen our defensive linestarted getting up thefield and getting pressureon (Kendrick) Williams,”Nees said. “When theytried a couple screenpasses, our linebackershad great coverage. Thatwas important.”Piqua put together a

four-play, 65-yard drive totie it late in the first quar-ter, with Wellbaum turn-

ing the corner for a 7-yardTD run.“The offensive line was

doing a great job,” Well-baum said.Then, Piqua found itself

fighting a field positionbattle.“We started with 90

yards or more to go threetimes and Fairborn kepthaving a short field,” Neessaid. “Despite all that, wewere ahead 13-6.”That’s because Demb-

ski, who finished with 187yards on 21 carries,turned the tide with a 74-yard run to the Fairborn 4late in the first half.It was the second play

of a three-play, 84-yarddrive. It looked like Dem-bski might go the dis-tance, but he was caughtfrom behind.“I stepped in a pothole

at the 20,” Dembski saidwith a smile. “I’m notusing that as an excuse.You always want to scorewhen you get in the openfield.”Wellbaum turned the

corner on the next play forhis second TD of the half.And the TD came one

series after Nees hadcalled timeout to talk tohis offensive line.“We had too many

penalties,” Nees said. “Wehad four penalties and abad snap — we justneeded to get settled downand the offensive line re-sponded.”Piqua completely con-

trolled the third quarter,as Fairborn ran just sixplays and did not make a

first down.While the Indians

couldn’t cash in on theirfirst drive, they did on thesecond with help from theSkyhawks.On fourth-and-seven

from the 10, a field goal at-tempt was wide, but Fair-born ran into the kicker.Six plays later, on

fourth-and-goal from theone, Dembski plowed intothe end zone and the sec-ond of four Evan GrissomPAT’s made it 20-6 with1:21 remaining in thethird quarter.“It always feels great to

help the team,” Dembskisaid.Then, Nees got the first

of his two fourth-quarterinterceptions to set Piquaup at the Fairborn 29.The drive ended with

Dembski’s second one-yard TD run, after he ranfor 11 and nine yards onthe previous two plays.“The offensive line was

doing a great job blockingin front of me,” Dembskisaid.The final score came

after Nees’s second inter-ception and was fitting forWellbaum’s final carry inan electrifying career.From the Piqua 16, he

found open field and went84 yards for the touch-down.“I slipped at first,”Well-

baum said with a laugh.“Then, I saw open field tothe end zone. It felt great.”Piqua rolled up 360

yards rushing against theGWOC South co-champs.Wellbaum had 79 on 13

carries and Nees added 77on 11 carries.“This is a good football

team, an explosive of-fense,” Bill Nees said.“And we were on the road.These guys were champsin the South. A lot of peo-ple don’t know that.”

For 22 seniors, it was amemorable way to finish.“I wouldn’t trade the

last four years for any-thing,” Travis Nees said. “Iwill never forget this (hisfinal game). I couldn’thave scripted anythingbetter than this.”
