Hoover, Allemeier new Hall of Honor membersBY NANCY SPENCER
DHI Media [email protected]
DELPHOS — More than 175 Jefferson alumni filled the Eagle Lodge hall for the annual banquet on Saturday.
The evening opened with the welcome by Lisa Harlan (class of 1981) and the invo-cation by the Rev. George Copus.
Following dinner, the 2016 Hall of Honor inductees were announced. The Late Mel Hoover (1954) and Don Allemeier (1946) were the 14 and 15 members to join the hall in its seventh year of inductions.
According to his nomination, Hoover played on the undefeated 1953 Northwest Conference Champion football team, served as class treasurer, was National Honor Society vice president, won the Arion Award as Buffalo Bill in the class play “Annie Get Your Gun” and won top honors in the county scholarship test. He was a member of the Varsity “D” Club, played baseball and basketball, won a table tennis championship and science awards,
was an artist for “Re-Echo,” tutored young-er students and help construct the Delphos-Lima electrical towers.
Hoover attended Ohio Wesleyan University to play football and then trans-ferred to The Ohio State University, where he earned his chemical engineering degree while working full-time for the gas compa-ny. He spent a majority of his career with Marbon and then Borg chemical companies, starting on the line and working his way to a position as associate technical director.
Hoovers was an adult who loved art of all media and his adulthood, tutored the unemployed and elderly in computer and job skills and worked with gifted children to expand their talent.
Hoover passed away on Oct. 9, 2014, and left a living legacy of a $50,000 donation of which interest earned goes to two Jefferson seniors as a scholarship each year. The first year, scholarships were $1,260 each.
Hoover’s wife, Valentine, accepted his Hall of Honor award.

Middle school ‘nickeling and diming’ district
BY NANCY SPENCERDHI Media Editor
DELPHOS — Aging building and the problems they bring continue to dominate the Delphos City Schools Board of Education meetings.
Members heard of more issues at Jefferson Middle School Monday evening. According to Superintendent Kevin Wolfe, the water pipes in the building are rusting and decaying and will need replaced.
“The building is more than 100 years old and so is the infrastructure,” Wolfe said. “Those pipes are decaying and becoming clogged. The custodians have been checking everything and all the plumbing needs replaced.”
Wolfe did not have an estimate for the plumbing proj-ect.
More costs have been realized at middle school. A water leak was discovered in the wall at the south end of the gymnasium and the water line had to be capped by the city. The repair cost between $7,200-7,400.

Around 80 children showed up to play popcorn straw races, popcorn toothpick swap, popcorn distance throw and popcorn cup drop. There was even a raffle for a book. (DHI Media/Kristi Fish)

Not too early to think about trade deadline
Since we are in the month of June and the trade dead-line is fast approach-ing, what will the Cincinnati Reds do?
Let’s face it, the way they are going — and we knew the season was going to be this way — they are going to have a bit of a fire sale.
That may be only one guy — Jay Bruce is likely gone unless they can figure out how they can afford to keep him; with the other big-salary guys like Joey Votto and Homer Bailey untouchable because of salary (Votto) or injury or both (Bailey; what a darned shame!) and Brandon Phillips all-in to remain as a Red, I don’t see that happening.
However, could Zach Cozart actually be considered for a trade?
Or Adam DuVall, who is knocking the cover off the ball and could help a potential playoff team?
Everybody else, especially the pitching staff, is a no-go because of injuries, simple poor play or youth or a combina-tion.
They haven’t had time to establish whether they have more than just potential because they are so banged up or simply haven’t played that long at this level.
Likely, the only one gone is Bruce and teams like the Chicago White Sox could use a left-handed bat like his and a cannon for an arm he has.
Or even a team like the Cleveland Indians with the loss of Marlon Byrd for the season — and likely his career — and Michael Brantley’s continuing health issues.
He not only is hitting for a good average this year but has returned some of his power.
I’m not sure he could make the transition to left field if the Indians asked but there’s a possibility.
Hey, they might be in the buyers’ market this summer.Let’s hope the Redlegs can get more than one prospect or
find the moolah to keep him because he could be a big part of a rebuilt roster because he is still only 29.
This being written, I like some of the pieces they were forced to put together after having to trade away or allow to go via free agency some of the previous pieces they had the last several years.
DuVall, Tyler Holt and some of the pitchers show a lot of promise but the latter just needs to get and stay healthy to see what they can do.
It’s not just the starters that have been a struggle but the bullpen has show flashes of … there is nothing to see here.
Maybe in the end, they have found a closer in Tony Cingrani because JJ Hoover is a good set-up man!
The thing is, with all the problems in the rotation — the everyday lineup has been relatively sound — they could actu-ally be farther up in the standings if their bullpen wasn’t so full of it over the first part of this season.
Part of it is injury but part of it is that guys are in different spots than what they are used to and likely in spots they really aren’t capable of handling.

Cougs nip error-prone JeffcatsBy Jim Cox
DHI Media [email protected]
DELPHOS — Van Wert scored five unearned runs in the sixth inning to pull out a 6-4 ACME win over Delphos Jefferson Monday.
The Cougars are now 3-5.The Wildcats 3-4.This was not a game to
write home about. Jefferson committed four errors, three of which were costly. Van Wert had no errors, technical-ly speaking, but several play-
able balls resulted in Wildcat hits because of Cougar mis-
judgments on fly balls or bounces.
The Cougs also struck out nine times, six of them on called third strikes.
It was 1-1 through 4 1/2 innings before the bats came alive. Jefferson scored three in the bottom of the fifth. Those came on three singles (third baseman Brett Mahlie, catcher Dre Reed, relief pitcher Brenan Auer), a double (centerfielder Jacob Boop) and a sacrifice fly (shortstop Jace Stockwell).
That 4-1 lead didn’t last long. The Cougars tied it up without benefit of a hit — three errors and two walks — before shortstop Nick Gutierrez smoked a two-run double down the left field line — 6-4, Van Wert, going into the bottom of the sixth. The game was far from over.
Jefferson started the bot-tom of the sixth by filling the bases with no outs (dou-ble by right fielder Tyler Shrider, hit batter (left fielder Jordan Boop) and sacrifice
bunt (second baseman Darius Shurelds) with a mixup resulting in Shurelds reach-ing first. However, Cougar reliever Coby Palmer retired the next three batters without further harm — two pop-ups and a force out.
Neither team threatened in the seventh.
Van Wert had taken a 1-0 lead in the top of the first on a ground single through the left side by centerfielder Mason Carr and a long double to left by third baseman Caleb Fetzer.
The ‘Cats tied it in the bot-tom of the second on a triple
to left by Shurelds and RBI single to right by Mahlie.
Shurelds started on the mound for Jefferson and held the Cougars to one run, earned, and four hits during his four innings of work. He struck out four and walked two.
Auer worked the next two innings and was victimized for the five unearned runs on only two hits, striking out three and walking two.
Stockwell pitched the sev-enth and retired Van Wert 1-2-3, striking out two.
Holden Willingham worked the first five innings for the Cougars and gave up all four Jefferson runs, all earned, on nine hits, striking out five and walking three.
Palmer got the win with two good innings — no runs, one hit, no walks, no strike-outs, one hit batter.
Fetzer led Van Wert hit-ters, going 2 for 3, including a double, one run, one RBI.
Knights knock off Lancers in ACMEBy Daniel Joseph
DHI Media Staff [email protected]
MIDDLE POINT – Fresh off of their Hardball Classic championship over the weekend, the Crestview Knights trav-elled to the home of the Lincolnview Lancers.
The Knights pulled away in the sev-enth inning to take down Lincolnview and extend their winning streak to six with an 8-4 victory on Monday night.
It was a back-and-forth affair until the top of the seventh inning when the Knights put a 3-spot on the board. It started with a Brant Richardson single and a Spencer Rolsten sacrifice bunt to get a runner to second base. Luke
Geradot was then hit by a pitch and advanced to second on a Lancer passed ball, with Richardson advancing to third base. Derek Biro singled to left-center
field, plating two runs and giving the Knights a 7-4 advantage. Jacob Painter stepped to the dish next and executed a perfect squeeze bunt that allowed Biro to come in and score. Crestview took an 8-4 advantage into the bottom of the seventh and it would prove to be enough.
“I thought Crestview did a really good job at situational hitting down and getting guys in,” Lancer head coach Nick Leeth said. “That’s something that we need to do better at going forward. We need to get guys on from the start and we’ve been focusing on that this summer.”
Lincolnview opened up the scoring early as Chayton Overholt came around to score on a Braxton Fox RBI single in the first inning. They weren’t done yet, though, as Thad Walker came around to score to give the Lancers a 2-0 lead in the first inning.
The Knights tied it in the top of the second inning on RBI singles from
Painter and Brett Schumm.Crestview took its first lead of the
ball game in the third inning when Geradot hit a fly to center that was deep enough to score a tagging Caden Hurless. Crestview wouldn’t look back.
Painter had a rough start on the rubber for the Knights as he threw 31 pitches in the first inning while surren-dering two hits, walking one and hitting another. He settled down soon after as he combined to throw only 19 pitches in the second and third innings. Payton Knittle relieved Painter in the fifth inning and allowed just one hit while fanning two.
“He was a little shaky at first, but after that he was dialed in,” Knight head coach Jeff Helm said. “He trusted his defense and threw strikes. There are eight other guys on the field and wasn’t afraid to use them. I’m very proud of the way he battled back after his rough start.”
Crestview’s offense was helped by five Lancer errors on the night.
“We made some mental mistakes tonight and we addressed those in the dugout and after the game,” Leeth said. “We have to control what we can and work with we can’t.”
The Knights played small ball on Monday as they pulled out two bunt sin-gles, a successful suicide squeeze bunt and eight stolen bases.

Let the kids playI have used this space in
the past to say that I am not a fan of participation tro-phies. That hasn’t changed. Winning is important.
But how important should be based on the age group of the teams involved in the competition.
I spent the past week-and-a-half following my kids around to their various baseball and softball games. There are four of mine old enough to play team sports, and they are all in different leagues. In each league, in each game, however, I saw the same troubling issues: coaches who placed winning above all else, including the fair participation of the play-ers.
There is a popular photo circulating on social media, perhaps you’ve seen it. It’s a sign posted at some lit-tle league ballpark urging parent to remember that the game is for the kids and that the coaches are volunteers. While that’s true, in many communities, the right to be on one of those teams isn’t free; parent have to pay for their kids to play. So when a 9-year-old boy sits on the bench in three innings of a six inning game, rotating his right field spot with two other kids, while none of the other players have to sit out, that’s a problem.
I ran into that scenario earlier this week when I was watching my son play over in Delphos. We were seat-ed near a family who had
come to watch their boy and I overheard some complaints about how little Johnny was on the bench again and how it wasn’t fair that only two or three kids ever had to sit while the other nine played every inning of every game. This is a 9-11-year-old league. The family had com-plained to the coaches and had been told that the boy sat because he was only nine and needed more practice.
Hey, coaching staff: if you don’t want 9-year-old players in your league, make it 10 and 11 only. Otherwise, let the kids play.
This generation of young people has more distractions than any generation before them. Baseball and softball not only has to compete with summer basketball and summer football and sum-mer volleyball, but it has to compete with X box and iPod and Netflix. And that doesn’t even mention the typical problems like family vacations and summer bible school camps. When we have
the chance to get these kids to play an actu-al summer sport - to allow them to experi-ence the success and failure that the game t e a c h e s , we need to allow them, each of
them, that experience.Baseball and softball are
games of failure, more so than any other sport. When the best players in the world commit throwing errors on routine ground balls, they know how to put their mis-takes behind them and focus on the next play. That’s a valuable life lesson and one that we aren’t allowing our kids to learn if we only use our best players in any given situation.
All kids, not just the elite (and we’re talking “elite” 10-year-old little leaguers, so I’m using the term loosely) should have the chance to play and fail and learn to succeed.
But the 9-year-old who has to sit half the game won’t learn those lessons, and nei-ther will the kid playing coach-pitch who sits three of the five innings. And nei-ther will the t-baller who is left on the bench while her teammates get to play every inning. And yes, the problem goes that young.
We ask our youth coach-es to give of their time and we offer little in the way of thanks. There are many youth coaches who do it right, who recognize that their jobs are to, first and foremost, make sure the kids are having fun while learning and improv-ing. But there are still far too many who feel that the only way that goal is accom-plished is by playing the elite kids only and allowing others to fall behind.
That popular sign I men-tioned before? It cautions that no college scholarships will be handed out on those fields that day. I would add a note to the coaches, alerting them that no World Championships will be won on those fields, either.
I would propose a rule, in each league, at every youth level, that no player could sit out more than one inning of any game, and that no player could sit twice until all players have sat at least once. Sadly, unless a rule such as this one exists, there will always be parents of a 7-year-old, sitting and watch-ing somebody else’s child play ball while theirs sits on the bench most of the game, every game.
A job of a youth coach, be it of 5- and 6-year-olds or any age group up through junior varsity is this: make sure you are helping all of your players be the best they can be when they get to the next level. All of your players. Not just the top nine or 10 on your team.

Not too early to think about trade deadline
Since we are in the month of June and the trade dead-line is fast approach-ing, what will the Cincinnati Reds do?
Let’s face it, the way they are going — and we knew the season was going to be this way — they are going to have a bit of a fire sale.
That may be only one guy — Jay Bruce is likely gone unless they can figure out how they can afford to keep him; with the other big-salary guys like Joey Votto and Homer Bailey untouchable because of salary (Votto) or injury or both (Bailey; what a darned shame!) and Brandon Phillips all-in to remain as a Red, I don’t see that happening.
However, could Zach Cozart actually be considered for a trade?
Or Adam DuVall, who is knocking the cover off the ball and could help a potential playoff team?
Everybody else, especially the pitching staff, is a no-go because of injuries, simple poor play or youth or a combina-tion.
They haven’t had time to establish whether they have more than just potential because they are so banged up or simply haven’t played that long at this level.
Likely, the only one gone is Bruce and teams like the Chicago White Sox could use a left-handed bat like his and a cannon for an arm he has.
Or even a team like the Cleveland Indians with the loss of Marlon Byrd for the season — and likely his career — and Michael Brantley’s continuing health issues.
He not only is hitting for a good average this year but has returned some of his power.
I’m not sure he could make the transition to left field if the Indians asked but there’s a possibility.
Hey, they might be in the buyers’ market this summer.Let’s hope the Redlegs can get more than one prospect or
find the moolah to keep him because he could be a big part of a rebuilt roster because he is still only 29.
This being written, I like some of the pieces they were forced to put together after having to trade away or allow to go via free agency some of the previous pieces they had the last several years.
DuVall, Tyler Holt and some of the pitchers show a lot of promise but the latter just needs to get and stay healthy to see what they can do.
It’s not just the starters that have been a struggle but the bullpen has show flashes of … there is nothing to see here.
Maybe in the end, they have found a closer in Tony Cingrani because JJ Hoover is a good set-up man!
The thing is, with all the problems in the rotation — the everyday lineup has been relatively sound — they could actu-ally be farther up in the standings if their bullpen wasn’t so full of it over the first part of this season.
Part of it is injury but part of it is that guys are in different spots than what they are used to and likely in spots they really aren’t capable of handling.

And that doesn’t even mention the typical problems like family vacations and summer bible school camps. When we have
the chance to get these kids to play an actu-al summer sport - to allow them to experi-ence the success and failure that the game t e a c h e s , we need to allow them, each of
them, that experience.Baseball and softball are
games of failure, more so than any other sport. When the best players in the world commit throwing errors on routine ground balls, they know how to put their mis-takes behind them and focus on the next play. That’s a valuable life lesson and one that we aren’t allowing our kids to learn if we only use our best players in any given situation.
All kids, not just the elite (and we’re talking “elite” 10-year-old little leaguers, so I’m using the term loosely) should have the chance to play and fail and learn to succeed.
But the 9-year-old who has to sit half the game won’t learn those lessons, and nei-ther will the kid playing coach-pitch who sits three of the five innings. And nei-ther will the t-baller who is left on the bench while her teammates get to play every inning. And yes, the problem goes that young.
We ask our youth coach-es to give of their time and we offer little in the way of thanks. There are many youth coaches who do it right, who recognize that their jobs are to, first and foremost, make sure the kids are having fun while learning and improv-ing. But there are still far too many who feel that the only way that goal is accom-plished is by playing the elite kids only and allowing others to fall behind.
That popular sign I men-tioned before? It cautions that no college scholarships will be handed out on those fields that day. I would add a note to the coaches, alerting them that no World Championships will be won on those fields, either.
I would propose a rule, in each league, at every youth level, that no player could sit out more than one inning of any game, and that no player could sit twice until all players have sat at least once. Sadly, unless a rule such as this one exists, there will always be parents of a 7-year-old, sitting and watch-ing somebody else’s child play ball while theirs sits on the bench most of the game, every game.
A job of a youth coach, be it of 5- and 6-year-olds or any age group up through junior varsity is this: make sure you are helping all of your players be the best they can be when they get to the next level. All of your players. Not just the top nine or 10 on your team.

Blue Jays split in ACMEBY JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports [email protected]
LIMA — St. John’s was involved in many a pitchers’ duel this spring baseball season and continuing into the ACME season.
Like the second game Saturday afternoon at Simmons Field in Lima against Tinora in the Lima Central Catholic summer tourna-ment.
The Blue Jays improved to 5-1 when they scored an unearned run in the bottom of the ninth to grab a 3-2 victory over the Rams.
Earlier in the morning, the Jays fell 12-8 to Findlay.
In the middle game, the Trojans overcame a 5-run by the Rams for a 6-4 lead in the bot-tom of the sixth with four in the upper seventh for an 8-6 triumph.
The Jays, tied 2-2 entering the last of the ninth, got leadoff hitter Collin Will aboard on an opening error. He then stole second after Tye Norden, in his fourth frame of relief for starter Kyle Beck, tried to pick him off, and took third on an error on another pickoff try. Two outs later, Jacob Youngpeter was hit by a pitch and Lincoln Mueller walked to load the bases. On a 3-2 count, Tony Sanders lined a sinking drive to short left field and a diving Gabe Griner couldn’t quite come up with the catch as Will scored the walk-off run.
The Jays forced extras with a 2-run rally in the home fifth off Beck to draw the game even at 2-2. Youngpeter ripped a single up the middle, burgled second and scored on a 1-out 2-bagger to right center by Sanders. An out later, he scored on a line single down the left-field line by Brady Grothaus to tie it at 2.
The Rams got their only runs in the top of the fourth against Blue Jay starter Josh Warnecke (who went the first seven frames and gave up only 2 hits while walking 4 and fanning 10) — without benefit of a hit. Griner opened with a free pass and reached third on a passed ball and wild pitch. Spencer Giesige walked and promptly pilfered second. Chase Hahn’s bounceout plated Griner and a wild pitch got Giesige in from third.
Will got the win with two innings of relief.In the day’s opener, the Jays batted around
— without benefit of a hit — in the upper first to go up 4-0. They totaled four bases-on-balls against Trojan starter Omar Boderick, includ-ing with the bases-loaded to Dominic Metzger (scoring Curtis Schwinnen); a sacrifice fly by Lincoln Mueller (plating Youngpeter); and two errors, plating Sanders and Troy Elwer; to account for those four runs.
The Jays played poor defense behind start-er Troy Elwer for his 2 1/3 innings, giving up seven unearned runs.
That started in the home second when Findlay plated five runs, being the beneficiary of three errors by the Jays and a passed ball and adding a pair of hits.
The Jays got their other four tallies with two down in the third, sending 10 to the dish. They put together two hits (Mueller and Carter Teman) and four straight walks (Grothaus,
Adam Gerker, Sanders and Schwinnen) — scoring Mueller, Teman and Grothaus — that finished Boderick (for Miles Yates). Youngpeter promptly walked to plate Gerker for an 8-5 edge but they left the bases loaded.
The Jays only had three more base-runners in the final four frames.
The Jays committed four more errors in the home third as the Trojans scored three more times to get within 8-7, chasing Elwer (for Sanders).
Findlay went in front in the fourth, this time getting four hits. They got run-scoring singles by Donovan Blend, Michael Leonard and Loren Couch, plus scored a run on an error, to go up 11-8.
The Trojans scored the final run in the sixth on a free pass to Brayden Shindeldecker, a stolen base and a single by Blend.

LMP has busy Friday nightInformation Submitted
LIMA — With the weather heating up, so did the action at Limaland Motorsports Park Friday night.
Headlining the Stolly Insurance Group Night were the Bud Thunderstocks, along with the Rick’s Truck and Equipment B.O.S.S. Non Wing Sprint Cars and the K & N UMP Modifieds.
NASCAR driver Kenny Wallace and his 36W was the featured attraction and he took the top spot in the 20-lap K&N UMP Modifieds fea-ture race.
He beat a field of 20, with Jeff Koz and his 16 car the runner-up.
Tony Anderson, in his familiar 22T car, grabbed first place in the 22-car Bud Thunderstocks A-Main, beat-ing Jordon Conover and his 7 car in the 15-lap feature.
Conover won the second heat while Anderson was sec-ond in heat 3.
In the Non Wing Sprint Cars, Steve Irwin’s O car beat out a field of 24 in the 25-lap A-Main.
That field came out of five heat races and two B-Main races.
Action continues to heat up Friday back at the old 1/4-miler.

Not every pitcher can be a closer or a set-up man or even the seventh-inning guy to face a left-hander for one out; those are positions that you have to have a different-than-normal men-tality than a starter.
As I wrote before, JJ is no closer but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t fill a much-needed role as a set-up man.
The Indians are having a solid year but it’s clear they need to get some more punch in the lineup as well if they want to continue their first-place hold on the American League Central.
That’s why a trade for Bruce would make some sense — unless they couldn’t afford it.I think they could as a so-called “mercenary for a season” — someone brought it like this
for one purpose: to help a team get to the playoffs; but they might have to give up more than they want to give them more flexibility.
Whether they would have the intention to keep him for next year and give him the con-tract he desires is a question I can’t answer because they are in the same boat as Cincinnati: a small-market team with less than infinite resources.
Bruce will earn over $12.5 million this year and $13 million in 2017, the option year; there’s a $1 million buyout for next season.
My guess should that year be bought out, he will ask for $19 million or more — at least — for five years as a player entering his prime.
It won’t be the New York Evil Empire ... er, Yankees or their perennial counterparts, the Boston Red Sox.
He has a limited no-trade clause and those teams are on that list, so it’s likely he wouldn’t sign with them ... unless they double his salary.
Should be a fun next couple of months ... or crazy, depending on your perspective!

“We wanted to put pressure on them and make something happen,” Helm said. “They executed when called upon to get the bunt down or steal a base. It was a great effort out of the kids after a very long weekend of baseball.”
The Lancers drop to 1-8-1 on the ACME season and will be in action next on Wednesday as they host Ayersville in a 9-inning game.
“We’re leaps and bounds of where we started,” Leeth said. “We just have to keep improving and we’ll be alright. I think we are going to really surprise a lot of teams when we start playing them the second time around. I’m happy to see all of the improvement with our team.”
Crestview moves to 8-3. The Knights will next host Jefferson on Wednesday.
“We’re getting a real feel for each other,” Helm said. “We only lost two seniors from the spring team, but there are some different roles this summer. Players know what their roles are when called upon and I’m very pleased with our efforts so far this season. I preach to them, ‘One run at a time, one hit at a time and one inning at a time.’ If we keep believing
in each other, good things are going to come with the attitude that we’ve developed.”

Practical MoneyReal Estate transfersAnyone can make errors with estate matters – you don’t have toBY NATHANIEL SILLIN
Adulthood brings certain financial responsibilities like the building of budgets, bank accounts and proper insur-ance. It’s surprising how few consider a proper estate plan part of that essential mix.
In fact, a recent ABCNews poll (http://abcnews.go.com/Business/story?id=86992) found that only about 50 per-cent of Americans have cre-ated a will and significantly fewer have created the sup-porting estate documents like a living will or a power of attor-ney.
Preparing now for the end of your life or for illness may not sound like fun, but it is necessary. Having a plan for the future can help bring you peace and even put you on the road to stronger financial security. It can also help those you care most about. We’ve all heard cautionary tales about relatives or friends who did not have a will, and family members who were left with difficult but avoidable situations.
So, how do you start an estate plan? It has a lot to do with carefully drawn documents, but it’s the planning behind them that really counts. I would encourage you to work with a qualified financial, estate and/or tax professional in your home state at the earliest opportunity to make sure your plans fit your needs and the needs of your loved ones. Here’s a bit more detail on each.
A will, also called a testament, is the starting point. Wills are generally seen as the umbrella document that drives the rest of an individual’s estate process. A will generally accomplishes the following:
It details how you want to leave your prop-erty to specific people or institutions after you die.
If you have minor children, it allows you to name a guardian to care for them after you die or become incapacitated. It also indicates who will manage your kids’ assets, including what you leave them.
It lets you name your executor, the trusted person who will carry out all your wishes in the will.
If you die without a valid will, your
state’s court system may get involved in distributing your assets depending on intestacy laws on the books.
A living will – also known as an advance directive – allows you to define how you want to be medically treated under specific situa-tions, including irreversible injury or terminal illness. Depending on your state laws, living wills allow you to express your exact wish-es about feeding, breathing assistance and other life-sus-taining procedures in addition
to how you want them carried out at certain decision points in your care. A living will may also provide information on pain or infection medications you either want or don’t want administered as well as specif-ic instructions about your remains, including release to your family or donation for medical research.
Powers of attorney are legal documents that allow you to name a specific person to take care of your money or healthcare wishes if you are incapacitated. It is particularly wise to seek professional counsel from a qualified trusts and estates attorney in writing these documents. The person you designate as healthcare power of attorney will be speaking with doctors and executing your wishes on various forms of treatment; your financial power of attorney will be in charge of paying your bills and depending on the range of responsibilities you outline for that person, handling your invest-ment and business affairs. Both are extremely important jobs that should be carried out by people you trust, and that’s why they need to be people in the know. Make their preparation part of your estate planning so they know how to step in and carry out the assignments you’ve given them efficiently.
Bottom line: Estate planning is the final, responsible step in all good financial planning. While it may be unpleasant to do, it is essential in taking care of family, loved ones and causes you support after you’re gone.

HOROSCOPESARIES Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, expect to be very busy in the days ahead. Make a concerted effort to be more aware of what’s around you so that you don’t miss a thing.
TAURUS Apr 21/May 21Taurus, financial ques-tions keep popping up and you just keep push-ing them aside for later. If need be, work with a professional to establish your goals.
GEMINI May 22/Jun 21Do something out of your comfort zone this week, Gemini. When you do so, you may find out you have a wider array of interests than you first believed.
CANCER Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, just when you think you’ve figured out how to play the game, they go and change all of the rules on you. Adaptability is one of your biggest strengths.
LEO
Jul 23/Aug 23It’s time to make your love life a priority, Leo. If you’re in a relation-ship, you may find it needs a little nurturing to get it back to the level it was a few months ago.
VIRGO Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, if you come up against things you don’t understand this week, ask people whose opin-ions you trust for their points of view. Educat-ing yourself will help you move ahead.
LIBRA Sept 23/Oct 23Take some time out of your schedule for some much-needed pamper-ing. Whether your idea of special treatment is a massage or simply sleeping in, make it a priority.
SCORPIO Oct 24/Nov 22Delegation will be your favorite word of the week, Scorpio. When the going gets tough, start delegating the tasks that have you stumped. This will ensure every-one stays productive.

The music that moves us ...
By Ed Clark
Elvis Aaron Presley,“The King” a good many called him. The most iconic individual singing sensation of the 20th century? You decide. His cultural presence in the 50s, 60s, and 70s is difficult to adequately describe. The post World War II Baby Boom generation was looking to bust out and the boundless excitement of Elvis Presley and early Rock & Roll unlocked the gate on pop culture in the 1950s. One could guestimate that virtually everyone born before 1960 has a vivid aware-ness of who the man was.
Consider:18 No. 1 Singles108 Hot 100 Hits80 Top 40 Hot 100 Hits126 Billboard 200 Charted Albums67 weeks at No. 1 on Billboard 200Consider: “With all the songs he per-
formed during his career, Elvis won just three Grammys. Those three wins were for gospel recordings “How Great Thou Art” (1967) album, “He Touched Me” (1972) album, and his Live Memphis Concert recording of “How Great Thou Art” (1974)”. (examiner.com)
Consider: Elvis songs most Baby Boomers remember as part of their growing up chronol-ogy:
“Heartbreak Hotel” (1956)“Don’t Be Cruel” (1956)“Hound Dog” (1956)“Love Me Tender” (1956)“All Shook Up” (1957“(Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear” (1957)“Jailhouse Rock” (1957)“Hard Headed Woman” (1958)“Are You Lonesome Tonight?” (1960)“Good Luck Charm” (1962)“Return to Sender” (1962)“In the Ghetto” (1969)“Suspicious Minds” (1969)“Burning Love” (1972)A sprinkling of quotes from great ones
about the great one:“No one will ever touch Elvis.” — Garth
Brooks
“Elvis touched the life of every ear that heard him, and you couldn’t help but listen when he sang.” — Merle Haggard
“No-one, but no-one is his equal, or ever will be. He was, and is, supreme.” — Mick Jagger
“When we were kids growing up in Liverpool, all we ever wanted to be was Elvis Presley.” — Paul McCartney
“He was the firstest with mostest.” — Roy Orbison
“Elvis Presley was the sweetest, most humble and nicest man you’d want to know. ” — Muhammad Ali
As a young kid I can only remember that when you heard the name Elvis, it was eyes-bigger-than-door knobs stuff. I suppose you simply had to live in his time to grasp the enormity of his appeal. Elvis Presley keeps a reserved seat in the VIP room at the ALL-TIMERS Club. Good Vibrations.

Answers to last Saturday’s questions:The Nintendo Game Boy game system debuted in
1989 and came bundled with the game Tetris. In 1959, the U.S. Postal Service attempted to deliver
mail using a missile. 3,000 letters were placed in a con-tainer built to replace a nuclear warhead on top of a mis-sile. It was fired from the submarine USS Barbero, just off the coast of Virginia. Twenty-two minutes later, the missile hit its target at the Naval Auxiliary Air Station in Mayport, Florida. The mail was retrieved and routed through the post office in nearby Jacksonville.

Diltz
Diltz new chamber director
BY KRISTI FISHDHI Media Staff Writer
DELPHOS —The Delphos Area Chamber of Commerce received a new executive director in May. Maria Diltz took over the position on May 2.
Diltz is certified as an administrative assistant and as a medical office assis-tant. She was previous-ly employed as a medical recordkeeper at Vancrest in Delphos.
Diltz said her previous experience with recordkeep-ing will benefit her with this new position. She also assisted with event planning at Vancrest and said the experience will help her as executive director.
Diltz said she does not plan to change any-thing while she is with Delphos Area Chamber of Commerce. However, she does plan to build relation-ships with the businesses.
“I’d like to keep bring-ing the community and area businesses together,” she said. “I’d like to emphasize the work ethics, values and commitment of the area.”

Allemeier moved to Delphos with his family in 1940 and graduated from Jefferson in 1946. His nominator called him “a Wildcat through and through.”
After high school, Allemeier served for two years as an Army paratrooper and then returned to his roots in Delphos to support his school and community.
In 1963, he purchased Delphos Tent and Awning and was successful in business as well as assisting many young local men learn the value of hard work and responsibility while working their summers to put up tents all across the area.
He not only served the community and school through his business, but also gave of his free time. He was president and carnival chairman for the Parent-Teacher Organization for many years and was president of the Jefferson Alumni Association for a time. He continues his support as a Jefferson Athletic Booster member.
In the past, Allemeier ran the chains at the football games after he helped run the wire to connect the sideline telephones to the press box. He put up tents for the track team, helped with stage props for musi-cals and transported band equipment to competitions.
“If you saw a canvas floor or bench covering or tent at any school event back in the day, it would be a safe bet he was behind getting it done,” his nominator wrote.
Allemeier was also active at Trinity United Methodist Church, where he led Youth Fellowship from 1965-73 and most recently served on the church’s board of trustees. He is a strong supporter of the church’s UPWARD programs.
Secretary Jo Briggs (1953) read the minutes from last year’s dinner.
The alumni, through generous donations of its members, was able to award two $2,000 scholarships this year. Recipients were Adam Rode, who plans to attend the University of Cincinnati, majoring in mechanical engineering; and Halee Heising, who plans to attend Rhodes State College and major in business administration.
Harlan noted several past scholarship winners and their accomplishments.
“Cody Parsons was the first to graduate high school in his family,” Harlan began. “He earned his masters in pharmacy and is using his talents in research.
“Logan Bonifas is completing his 26 weeks at the Ohio State Highway Patrol Academy and secured an internship with the Secret Service. Our scholarships are helping these kids work toward their dreams.”
The oldest female alumni was Catharine Gerdemann (1944) and the oldest male was Paul Dunlap (1946).
Those traveling the greatest distance to attend included Patricia Bilimek Naylor (1956) and Sandy Trentman (1961). Both live in California.
This year’s special class was 1966. Jane Cook spoke and noted the class continues to support the alumni scholarships in honor and memory of history and civics teacher Walter Arnette.
The next dinner will be held at 6 p.m. June 10, 2017 at the Eagles Lodge.
Honor
Alumni with two generations in attendance include, front to back from left, Jo Anne Briggs and her daughter, Nancy (Briggs) Spencer; Julie Kiggins and Lisa (Harlan) Kiggins with their father, Keith Kiggins; and Adam Rode with his father, Gary Rode.
The Allemeier family was three generations strong three ways with, from front, Dan Myers, Joyce Myers and Don Allemeier; and back, Craig Myers, Scott Myers and Steve Myers.

The walk-in freezer in the middle school cafeteria has also quit working and will have to be replaced this summer to the tune of $18,000.
The budget for the new Career Connections Center is being finalized. Wolfe said he hoped to have it ready to bid out as soon as possible. The district received nearly $1 million for the project.
“We are a little over budget but we figured that in,” he said. “We knew there would be things we hadn’t thought of or others that would come up.”
The school board took care of numerous personnel issues. John Vennekotter was moved to the Masters +15 Column on the pay scale. Four open positions were filled, including Matthew Spencer as the new fourth-grade Social Studies/science teacher with a 1-year contract (student numbers have pushed the need for an additional Social Studies teacher); Jacqueline Deitering will be the multiple handicaps teacher at Franklin Elementary with a 2-year contract; Amy Downing was approved as the multiple handicaps teacher aide at Franklin; and finally, Stephanie Ohtola will be the new social studies teacher at the high school with a 1-year contract.
The board accepted the following supplemental resignations: Missy McClurg – co-prom advisor and co-junior class advisor; Chad Brinkman – co-junior class advisor; and Josiah Stober – head softball coach.
To fill ancillary positions, the board approved supplemental contracts for the 2016-17 school year: Mark Jettinghoff – junior varsity boys basketball coach; Todd Grothaus – volunteer varsity boys basketball assistant coach; Matt Gerdeman – volunteer junior varsity boys basketball assistant coach; Butch Lucas – volunteer varsity girls assistant basketball coach; Missy McClurg – year-book advisor and Transition Advisor; Stephanie Braun – Student Council advisor; Scott Elwer – Vo-Ag advisor; Heather Brickner – freshman class advisor; Christine Siebeneck – Sophomore class advisor and NHS advisor; David Stearns – marching band, school musical, stage director and musical business manager; Bev Tuttle – junior high FCCLA advisor; Josh Vasquez – senior class advisor; John Vennekotter – Senior class advisor; Tamara Wirth – Show Choir and vocal coach; Arnita Yoder – Sophomore class advisor; Jeff Rex – Science Club; Kathy Buettner – pre-school; and Kristin Gable — boys athletic manager.
In other business, the board:• Accept $1,000 for a Delphos Pride Scholarship from Vince
and Carolyn Ebbeskotte; and• Approve the Franklin, Middle/High School and Athletic
Handbooks for the 2016-17 school year.
