by Brent SwanAfter nearly three

years of planning anddiscussion, theMetropolitan SchoolDistrict (MSD) ofWabash Countyunveiled it’s newApple MacBooks Aug.24 at Northfield HighSchool as part of itsnewly implemented 1-to-1 computing initia-tive.

Within the MSD dis-trict, every student,regardless of grade,received one of twoelectronic devices aspart of this initiative.

“Kinderg ar tnersthrough secondgraders will receiveIpads. Third gradersthrough 12th graderswill get MacBookAirs,” MSD ofWabash CountySuperintendent Dr.Sandra Weaver said.“The Ipads willremain in the class-rooms, while theMacBooks willremain the students’own personal comput-ers for several years.”

Third graders andolder will be able totake the laptops homewith them afterschool hours and willbe able to take themwherever they go.

“We encourage thestudents to personal-ize these computers

and make themtheirs,” Dr. Weaversaid. “We will get thelaptops back oversummer break, but wedo want them to takethem with them onvacations or whereverelse they may go dur-ing the school year.”

After each summerbreak concludes, Dr.Weaver said each stu-dent will then receivehis or her computerthey held the previousyear.

“I’m not sure howmany schools acrossthe state of Indianacan say they havecompleted a programlike this across theirentire district like wehave,” Dr. Weaversaid. “We believe ourkids power downwhen they come toschool, and we don’twant it to be that way.We think these com-puters are a tool thatwill allow us to openup opportunities forour kids.”

The initiative wasfunded after the MSDof Wabash Countyborrowed $3.3 millionon a loan with aninterest rate belowone percent.

“We will have thatloan paid back in fullwithin four years,”Dr. Weaver explained.“With the interest

rate we got, the actualcost to taxpayers isless than the previousquote.”

As many computersgrow outdated in arelatively shortamount of time, Dr.Weaver stated the lap-tops will be replacedin four years, and willcost the school dis-trict less the next timearound.

“In four years, theseniors will be pre-sented with the optionof purchasing thecomputers they hadcarried throughouttheir high schoolcareer,” Dr. Weaversaid. “Those that arenot purchased by theseniors will be pur-chased back by Applethrough their buy-back program.”

It wasn’t until aftermuch thought that thedistrict decided onpurchasing Appleproducts for the class-rooms.

“This (project) hasbeen in the works forthree years,” Dr.Weaver said of theamount of timeinvested. “You have tostart by staffing thetech and supportdepartments to formthe foundation forthis type of initiative.You then have to have

The Wabash CountyConvention andVisitors Bureau, Inc.(CVB) is pleased toannounce 221 S.Miami Street as thefuture location for thenew welcome centerfor Wabash County.The property isowned by Michael andAngie Beauchamp ofConflux andConfluence, Inc., andwill house the organi-zation beginning inJan. 2013.

Currently, the CVBrents a 336 square feet

office with an addi-tional 300 square feetof storage space fromthe Wabash CountyHistorical Museum.The new location is2,500 square feet andwill be built to suitthe welcome center’sneeds. “The CVB hassimply outgrown itscurrent locationinside of the muse-um,” stated DarylEvans, board presi-dent for the organiza-tion. “The board ofdirectors recognizesthe importance of a

larger operatingspace as the CVB con-tinues to increase theorganization’s servic-es,” continued Evans.The CVB has rentedspace from theWabash CountyHistorical Museumfor nearly ten years.

The future site ofthe welcome centerwas once owned byLinley A. Dawes inthe 1880s. The build-ing was the L. A.Dawes Livery Sale &Boarding Stable; a sta-ble where horses,teams and wagonswere for hire, but alsowhere privately-owned horses couldbe boarded for a shorttime. Mr. Dawes oper-ated the livery stablefor over twenty-twoyears until he tradedit for 140 acres of landin Noble Township.

The new welcomecenter will show casesome of the building’shistoric architecturalfeatures whichinclude two interiorarchways measuring7’ X 8’ that connectedthe livery office to thestable, an exposedbrick wall and origi-nal hardwood floors.“I want this to be oneof the best conventionand visitors bureausin the state,” saidMichael Beauchampregarding the proper-ty’s renovations. “Alot of unique ameni-ties have been workedinto the constructionplans,” saidBeauchamp. MikhailNew is the generalcontractor executingthe project and haspartnered with AngieDelauter as the leadinterior designer.

The proposed floorplan includes a retailsales floor, kitch-enette, welcomedesk, handicapassessable rest-rooms, private officeand conferenceroom. “The new wel-come center’s loca-tion and size willenable the CVB staffto connect with pre-destination traffic,act as a first stop forlarge groups andhost educationaltrainings for front-line service staff,”said Christine Flohr,executive director oftourism. “Michaeland Angie(Beauchamp) are theperfect partners onthis project and theCVB board of direc-tors is grateful fortheir vision and dedi-cation to the county.”

The Wabash CountyC o m m u n i t yCorrections AdvisoryBoard held their quar-

terly business meet-ing on Wednesday,Aug. 22.

During this meet-

ing, the board tooktime to recognizeAutomated Egg fortheir efforts on behalf

of the CommunityCorrections programand the WabashCounty community as

a whole. AutomatedEgg has recentlybegun hiringC o m m u n i t yCorrections WorkRelease andC o m m u n i t yTransition inmates towork at their NorthManchester facility.

Wabash CircuitCourt Judge RobertMcCallen said, “Weare pleased and grate-ful to Automated Eggfor their involvementin our WabashCounty CommunityCorrections program.All of society benefitswhen we work togeth-er to help people tosafely and appropri-ately transition backto our communityencouraging them tolive a law abidinglife.”

Work Release offerslocally sentencedinmates the chance tomaintain their jobsand support theirfamilies while theyserve their sentencein the Wabash CountyJail. The CommunityTransition Program

offers Department ofCorrection inmates,who are returning toWabash County, theopportunity to obtainemployment and re-establish themselvesin the communityprior to their officialrelease from prison.

Superior CourtJudge ChristopherGoff echoed similarthoughts by saying “aresponsibility to sup-port yourself andyour family is one ofthe primaryduties that we place

Before dove andwaterfowl hunterstake to drought-affect-ed fields this huntingseason, they shouldtake time first toreview baiting laws.

Baiting can be acomplicated issue. Itcan become morecomplicated in yearsin which drought con-ditions have pushedmany farmers todestroy their standingagricultural crops. Itis imperative thathunters keep in mindwhat is legal and whatis not legal duringwaterfowl and dovehunting seasons.

What is legal?Hunters can hunt

waterfowl on, over, orfrom:

* Standing crops orflooded standingcrops

* Standing, flooded,or manipulated natu-ral vegetation

* Flooded harvestedcroplands

* Lands or areaswhere grains or top-sown seeds have beenscattered solely as theresult of normal agri-cultural practices.

Hunters can huntdoves on, over orfrom:

* Standing crops * Lands where

seeds or grain havebeen scattered solelyas a result of normalagricultural practices

* Lands planted aswildlife food plots

* Lands planted aspasture improve-

ments or for the pur-pose of grazing live-stock.

* Standing ormanipulated naturalvegetation

* Agriculturalcrops that have beenmanipulated.

What is illegal?You cannot hunt

waterfowl in:* Areas where grain

or seed has been top-sown.

* Crops that havebeen harvested out-side of the recom-mended harvest dates.

* Unharvestedcrops that have beentrampled by livestockor subjected to othertypes of manipula-tions that scatter, dis-tribute or expose thegrain.

* Freshly plantedwildlife food plotsthat contain exposedgrain.

* Areas where grainis present or stored.

* Croplands where acrop has been har-vested and theremoved grain isredistributed or“added back” onto thearea where it wasgrown.

Hunters cannothunt doves in:

* Areas wheregrain, seed, salt orfeed has been placed,exposed, deposited,distributed or scat-tered.

* Areas where grainis in piles or otherconcentrations.

* Freshly planted

wildlife food plotsthat contain exposedgrain.

It is legal to huntdoves on, over, orfrom manipulatedagricultural lands. Itis NOT legal to huntwaterfowl on, over, orfrom manipulatedagricultural lands.

Below are a fewpotentially commonscenarios for theu p c o m i n gdove/waterfowl sea-sons.

* If a farmermows his agricul-tural fields inSeptember due tocrop insurance pay-ments, a huntercannot hunt it forwaterfowl because

waterfowl cannot behunted over manipu-lated agriculturallands. However, thisfield can be hunted fordoves.

* If a wildlife foodplot is planted a fewweeks before you aregoing to dove orwaterfowl hunt, canyou hunt it? Yes, if thegrain is not exposed.

* You decide to putout grain to attractbirds. It has beeneight days since youlast put out grain. Canyou hunt this area?No. An area is consid-ered baited until 10days after all thegrain has beenremoved from thearea.

The U.S. beef herdhas been shrinking,and the worst droughtin decades has onlyencouraged that trendto continue. But forbeef producers whocan withstand thefinancial hardshipover the next severalmonths, reduced beefsupplies could mean

bigger profits startingas early as late 2013.

The U.S.Department ofA g r i c u l t u r e ’ smidyear cattle inven-tory report showedbeef cow numbersdropped by 3 percentin the last year. It proj-ects the 2012 calf cropto be down 2 percent

from last year, anddown 8 percent since2006.

Part of what hasbeen driving thedecline is skyrocket-ing feed costs and pro-longed drought in theSouthern Plains, saidChris Hurt, PurdueExtension agricultur-al economist.

“This year’sdrought likely meansfurther decreases incow numbers over thenext 12-14 months,” hesaid. “The impacts ofthe drought are justbeginning to show upin some of the nation-al data. We do knowthe direction, but notthe final magnitude.”

Since mid-June,corn prices havejumped by 60 percent

and soybean mealprices by 25 percent.And according to theUSDA, 82-92 percentof the pastures inIndiana, Illinois,Arkansas, Missouri,Iowa, Kansas,Nebraska andColorado are in verypoor or poor condi-tion.

The lack of avail-able feed crops andforages and the highprices for what isavailable have forcedmany producers tostart culling theirherds. As more cattlehave entered the mar-ket, the value ofcalves and feeder cat-tle has fallen.

“In the wake ofhigh feed prices anduncertainty regard-ing forage availability,calf and feeder cattle

prices plummeted,”Hurt said.

For example,Oklahoma steer calfprices were $173 perhundredweight inmid-June but fell to$138 in late July. A $35per hundredweightdecline on a 550-pound calf is a nearly$200 per-head valuereduction.

“Multiplying thatacross a national calfcrop of 34.5 millionhead totals a potentialdecline in value ofnearly $7 billion,” hesaid. “It is still tooearly to count theactual damages, butthis illustrationshows it’s likelylarge.”

The silver lining,Hurt said, could be forproducers who areable to weather the

financial storm andhold onto their herds.As cattle numbers fallbelow beef consumerdemand, pricesshould rebound.

Producers likelybest positioned tokeep their herds arethose who locked inlower feed prices inthe spring. Thatwould mostly includelarge feedlots thattend to hedge on feedand feed cost and prof-it margins.

“The message forcow-calf producers isto hold onto the cowsif possible,” Hurtsaid. “The short-termlosses of the next 12 to14 months will bereplaced by large prof-its in late-2013, 2014and 2015.”

Hurt said the antic-ipated “golden days”

are based on reduc-tions in per-capitabeef supplies, leadingto higher retail beefprices, and an expect-ed return to more nor-mal crop conditionsin 2013.

While that couldrevive some optimismin the cattle industry,Hurt was quick topoint out that mostthoughts of herdexpansion would bepushed off until late2013.

“The exception isfor producers in areasof the country thathave abundant for-ages,” he said. “Forthem, buying cowssold this fall from dis-tressed ownersappears to be a strate-gic move.”

Reduced cattle herd could mean bigger profits starting late 2013

Drought continuedto ease in southwestIndiana in the pastweek as that area ofthe state hit hardestby the summer’sdrought benefitedfrom August rains, anupdate of the U.S.Drought Monitor onThursday (Aug. 23)showed.

Some areas ofsouthwest Indianathat had been inexceptional drought -the highest level ofdryness - for several

weeks improved toextreme drought, stillfar from full recoverybut improving. Therewas some slightimprovement in cen-tral Indiana, whichwas in less criticallevels of dryness,from significant rain-fall Indiana has beengetting this month.

“Most of theimprovement in thedrought status thispast week was in thesouthwest,” said KenScheeringa, associate

state climatologistbased at PurdueU n i v e r s i t y .“Elsewhere, there’snot a lot of changefrom a week ago.”

Scheeringa notedthat August rainfall todate in Indiana hasaveraged near 3.1inches, 20 percentabove normal. Sincethe start of this year,state average rainfallis about 20.1 inches.Rainfall deficits so farrange from 5.8 inchesacross northern

Indiana to 11.5 inchesin the far southwest.

The forecast for theremainder of Augustwas for less-than-nor-mal rainfall butabove-normal precipi-tation in the firstweek of September,Scheeringa said.Temperatures wereexpected to be abovenormal through theperiod.

The uncertainty ofthe rainfall pattern inthe coming monthswill be compoundedby land-falling tropi-cal cyclones and theirtracks, said DevNiyogi, state climatol-ogist.

“Another challengewe have is to try tobalance the droughtdesignation based onthe rains that willoccur versus thelonger-term impactsthat are alreadyunder way,” he said.

“We went toChicago and met withMac computer repre-sentatives. We talkeda great deal aboutgoing with PC’s, butin the end, Apple wasmuch more afford-able. A PC-based com-puter ran on average$600 more permachine than theMacBooks.”

Dr. Weaver also saidthat each classroomwithin the buildingshave been updated toinclude wirelessaccess points andhigh speed, fiber opticInternet service.

“Our goal is to open

a building in thenorth and a buildingin the south to allowthe kids and parentsthe opportunity tocome in and work onthese laptops if theydon’t have access tothe internet at home,”Dr. Weaver said. “Thisis a very excitingopportunity that ourschool board andadministration haveallowed for our kids,”Northfield PrincipalMike Keaffaber said,“Teachers have beencompleting trainingover the summer to beprepared for this. Thestaff will continuous-ly work to improve inall areas and usethese MacBooks totheir full potential.”

Part of the poten-tial these laptops pro-vide is immediate andup to date access tonearly any Internetsite, from Google toYouTube. Studentshave even been able toview lectures fromM a s s a c h u s e t t sInstitute ofTechnology onYouTube.

“There are so manyeducational sites ourkids can now utilize,”Dr. Weaver said. “It isamazing. We will stillhave books in class,but we are transition-ing to where most ofour curriculum willbe on the computer.They are still text-books, but electronicversions of tradition-

al textbooks.”Dr. Weaver said that

the tech staff is ableto track student activ-ities to ensure noinappropriate contentis viewed or down-loaded, whether atschool, on springbreak, or while atMcDonald’s.

“We will continueto use the same filterswe have always had atthe schools,” Dr.Weaver explained ofthe security features.“We know some kidswill try to figure out away around it. Assoon as students real-ize we check it everyday, the number ofkids trying to getaround it will godown.

Randomly, our techstaff will select 6-10laptops and gothrough them toensure nothing inap-propriate has beendownloaded or lookedat.”

Overall, Dr. Weaversaid the experiencehas been an over-whelming success upto this point.

“Teachers now havea different way ofinstructing and kidsnow have a differentway of learning,” Dr.Weaver said. “It’spushing us to a higherlevel across the dis-trict.”

“What we are hop-ing to accomplish isto allow this programto grow into its own,”Shoemaker said.“There are jobs outthere where someonethat has completedthis program willhave a head start onthose that have notraining. When thesestudents leave theprogram, they will bemachinists.”

Within surround-ing area, Shoemakerpointed out there arequality jobs availablewithin the trade.

“If you look aroundthe Wabash Countyarea, you haveWarsaw with BioMet,Zimmer, and all themedical industries,you have Fort Wayne,and you have tool anddies here in WabashCounty. There arejobs to be had.”

As part of thecourse, Shoemakerteaches students howto develop from thebasics such asmachine setup to themore advanceddesign programs forthe automatedmachines.

In the fall 2012semester, Shoemakerhas 10 studentsincluding two orthree sophomores.

“Some of the kidswithin the programnow have the poten-tial to be here forquite a while,”Shoemaker added. “Ifthey leave here afterfinishing the course, Ican’t imagine themnot being able to finda job that suits theskills they havelearned while atHeartland. There is alot of potential.”

Shoemaker said 10students is a nice wayfor him to enter theprogram, but hehopes to see the pro-gram grow into thefuture.

“We have adjustedthe class itself tobecome more studentfriendly and create amore positive learn-ing environment,”Shoemaker said.“We’ll continue tofocus on the ins andouts of the machines,but also allow thekids the opportunityto create their ownprojects.

“It’s still a learningprocess, but I thinkeverything seems tobe moving alongs m o o t h l y , ”Shoemaker said ofthe transition. “I’mexcited for this oppor-tunity and look for-ward to continuing itinto the future.”

Dear editor,Melinda Henneberger;s

column (“Gauging theLugar backlash,” Aug. 7)spells out why RichardMourdock’s Senate racewith Joe Donnelly couldgo down to the wire inNovember.

The farm vote he isignoring could make thedifference. Farmers willnot forget his strong nega-tive position on bio-fuel inhis debate with Sen.Richard Lugar. Bio-fuelproduction is the only“green energy” that isworking. Wind and solarwill fail when tax dollarsdry up.

Ethanol gave up itsmajor tax incentive. Bigoil’s federal tax breaks arebetween $3.6 billion and$4.5 billion each year.

Last year, 14 billion gal-lons of ethanol provided 10percent of the U.S. motorfuel supply. Americanethanol; producers havecreated more than 400,000good-paying jobs and paymore than $8 billion in fed-eral, state and local taxes.Gasoline on average thelast decade is 25 cents a gal-lon cheaper because of theinclusion of ethanol.

Ethanol reduces green-house emissions by up to 50percent compared to gaso-line.

The only part of cornused to produce ethanol isthe starch. The product left,distiller dried grain, is mar-keted for the production ofbeef and some pork.

I know Donnelly sup-ports bio-fuel production,but his close ties withWarren Buffett turn me off.I know Mourdock is an edu-cated geologist, but if hedoesn’t look at bio-fuel pro-duction with an open mind,he could go back to lookingat rocks.

I n d i a n aConservation Officersare investigating a boataccident whichoccurred atM i s s i s s i n e w aReservoir on Saturdayat approximately 1:05p.m. ChristopherMorris, 30, Kokomo,was operating a 1972,12-foot v-bottom fishingboat near the RedBridge Ramp as hewaited for his friend toback the boat trailerinto the water for pick-up. Morris stated that acouple of small wavescame in over the stern(back) of the boatwhere he was sittingand the boat veryquickly took on waterand stood straight upand sank. Morris’ footwas stuck between thegear in the stern of theboat and he was unableto immediately freehimself. As the boatsank, it pulled Morrisunder water with itabout 5-8 feet beforeMorris successfullyfreed his foot and swamto the surface. A pass-ing boat picked upMorris and took him toshore. Witnesses statedit took the boat only afew seconds to totally

submerge once itbegan taking on water.Morris was not wear-ing his life jacket.Indiana ConservationOfficer Scuba Diversrecovered the boat in 22feet of water.

Investigating OfficerJerry Hoerdt encour-ages everyone to weartheir life while boatingas accidents such asthis are unpredictableand happen very fast.Hoerdt believes theboat likely had toomuch weight concen-trated in the stern ofthe boat. There was anoutboard motor withgas tank, trollingmotor with battery, andthe weight of Morrisall at the stern end,which virtually elimi-nated any freeboard forthe boat. Freeboard isdescribed as theamount of watercrafthull exposed betweenthe water line and thetop gunwale edge ofthe boat. Boaters areadvised to match theirboat and boating skillswith the body of waterthey intend to recreateon. Small boats such asMorris’ can capsizeand become swampedwith water very easily.

WCH Health Fair and Hanneken Memorial Run Set for Sept. 8

FFW Corporation,parent-corporation ofCrossroads Bank,announced earningsfor the quarter andyear ended June 30.

For the year endedJune 30, 2012, theCorporation reportednet income of $593,000or $0.11 per commonshare compared to$2,674,000 or $1.96 percommon share fort heyear ended June 30,2011. The provisionfor loan lossesincreased from$1,445,000 for the yearended June 30, 2011 to$4,800,000 for the yearended June 30, 2012.The additional provi-sion recorded in fiscalyear 2012 is primarilydue to a loss on a com-mercial credit inwhich CrossroadsBank, the whollyowned subsidiary ofFFW Corporation,was a participatinglender and not thelead loan servicer.

The loan wassecured by a lifeinsurance policy,whose value was dis-sipated throughfraudulent actions ofthe borrower. The rea-sons for the loss arestill being investigat-ed, but the Bank isvigorously pursuingactions necessary toseek recovery of theloss. Total noninterestincome was $3,339,000for the year endedJune 30, 2012 and$3,201,000 for the yearended June 30, 2011.Noninterest expensewas $8,252,000 for theyear ended June 30,2012 and $7,990,000 forthe year ended June30, 2011.

Due to the afore-mentioned loan loss,the quarter endedJune 30, 2012 resultedin a net loss of$1,536,000 or negative$1.47 per common

share. As a result ofthe loss, theCorporation will notdeclare and pay acommon shareholderdividend for the quar-ter ended September30, 2012. TheCorporation expectsto resume the com-mon dividend whenthe Corporationreturns profitable sta-tus in succeedingquarters.

Roger K. Cromer,President and ChiefExecutive Officer, stat-ed, “The loan loss weexperienced in the cur-rent quarter was bothunexpected and disap-pointing. The Bank hasmade significant effortsin reduction of nonper-forming assets and capi-tal strengthening.Without the impact ofthe loss, the Bankwould have reportednet income of approx-imately $2.8 millionfor the fiscal yearended June 30, 2012.

While the finalearnings were notwhat we had antici-pated, the additionalprovision recorded inthe current year andthe efforts to other-wise reduce nonper-forming assets haveimproved the overallbalance sheet condi-tion of the Bank inthat the nonperform-ing ratios are the low-est in 8 quarters andthe strength of theloan loss allowance asa percentage of theloans is the highest ithas ever been.

We continue toremain positive inthese difficult eco-nomic times and arecommitted to workingthrough the issues wehave faced. We aretaking all possiblesteps t seek a recoveryof the significant loanloss we experiencedthis year.”

Northfield 32Triton 20

By J.D. SparksNorse senior quarterback Austin Curless

racked up 290 total yards of offense and threetotal touchdowns during Northfield’s 32-20victory over Triton at Wilbur-Dawes Field Fri-day.“Curless was impressive running the of-

fense,” Uggen told The Paper.“It’s tough coming off of a three-intercep-

tion game and to come back and not turn theball over. That was huge. He looked good run-ning the option and had some accurate passesto (Jared) Kirtlan. The offensive line gave Cur-less a lot of time to throw, too. The offense dida nice job.”Curless collected 96 yards on the ground on

18 carries, including a two-yard scoringplunge, leading an option-based running at-tack that accumulated 275 yards. Through the air, he was 5-of-13 passing for

194 yards and two touchdowns. Senior re-ceiver Jared Kirtlan caught four of thosepasses for 179 yards and both scores. Bothtouchdowns came in the first quarter.“We established the run and that really

opened it up for Austin and Jared,” Uggensaid.“Running the ball set up the passing game

and passing set up the run. The offense lookedlike what it was supposed to (Friday).”Kirtlan’s first touchdown catch came eight

plays after Alec Wells picked up a Triton fum-ble at Northfield’s eight-yard line. On theninth play of the drive, Curless connectedwith Kirtlan for a 49-yard catch-and-run withfour minutes and 12 seconds left in the firstquarter, giving the Norse a 6-0 lead.Triton responded with a pair of long plays,

including Cody Shively’s 23-yard touchdownrun, putting the Trojans up briefly, 7-6, at the2:33 mark.About a minute later, Kirtlan and Curless

struck again. On a second-and-five play fromtheir own 20-yard line, Kirtlan took about a 15-yard pass from Curless to the end zone, an 80-yard strike. A two-point conversion later andthe Norse were up 14-7.

ALEC WELLS ATTEMPTS to shed a tackle during Northfield’s 32-20 victory over Triton at Wilbur-Dawes Field Friday. Wellsrushed for 66 yards on nine carries, including a one-yard touchdown plunge. The Norse improved to 1-1 and now turn their atten-tion to Three Rivers Conference-foe North Miami (1-1). (photo by Harold Chatlosh)

After forcing a Trojan punt, later in thesecond Andy Roser capped a six-playdrive of 65 yards with an 11-yard scoringburst through the middle of the Tritondefense. His scoring scamper increasedhis team’s lead to 20-7.“Just like (against Bluffton), we were

able to respond to their first touchdownpretty quickly,” Uggen said.“The kids reacted well to that situa-

tion, coming back with two touchdowns.”Curless scored again with about six

minutes left in the third quarter, bulldoz-ing his way into the end zone from two

yards out to end a half-opening drive. Histouchdown all but closed out the game at26-7. Triton scored once in the third andanother time in the fourth, but couldn’tcome within 12 points of the Norse. Wellsscored from two yards away with sevenminutes left in the game to end the North-field scoring.Overall, Uggen was satisfied with the

victory.“Our defense was kind of a bend-but-

not-break situation,” he said.“I was also really impressed with

Shane Vigar. It’s great to know we have

another running back to go with Andyand Alec. There’s always things you cantweak, though, and we’re going to con-tinue to get better.”Wells rushed nine times for 66 yards

CALL (260) 563-8326If you have a sports story for The Paper

By Gary AndrewsAfter last week’s one-point loss to

Southern Wells, in a game where theKnights missed some opportunities,there were some high expectationsFriday night with Oak Hill coming toSouthwood. No one would haveguessed what was about to happen asthe Eagles put up 47 points in the firsthalf on their way to a 61-21 win overSouthwood.The adrenalin was flowing to start

the game as kicker Joey Goff ham-mered the opening kick in to the endzone, forcing Oak Hill to start on theirown 20. With the Eagles driving tomidfield, Knight defenders BrettWyatt, Shane Smith and AustinSchlemmer stuffed the line, forcing aloss and making it third and 14 for OakHill. Seconds later, Eagle quarterbackDerek Durkes connected with ZackDaniels on a 49-yard pass play for atouchdown with 9:33 to go, giving theEagles a 7-0 lead. The Knights, afterbeing punched, would punch back.Nathan Hollars would take the kickoffback to midfield and, three plays later,scamper in from 26 yards out and witha Zach Hobson kick the score was tiedat 7 with 8:16 to go. The Oak Hill of-fense would waste no time, marchingdown the field, with Kegan Andersonscoring at the 6:17 mark to put the Ea-gles back up 14-7. On Southwood’s nextdrive, Matt McDivitt would pick offKnight quarterback Robbie Cole and,one play later, catch a TD pass fromDurkes with 4:35 left to lead 21-7. The

Knights were forced to punt on theirnext possession and the Eagles tookadvantage of it. Anderson would bustloose for a 68-yard TD run and OakHill increased their lead to 28-7. Thequarter would end with the Knightsmounting their own drive.On fourth and two, Cole would con-

nect with Isaac Peebles to the Eagle 33,keeping the drive alive. Hollars wouldthen go 29 yards to the Oak Hill four toset up the next Knight score. Colepitched the ball to the left and was bob-bled and picked up by Hollars, whothen dropped the ball again beforefalling on it in the end zone for aKnight TD with 11:16 to go and it was28-14. That’s when the wheels fell off for

the Knights. Oak Hill would immedi-ately score with 9:52 left and on South-wood’s next play, Derrick Randallpicked off a Cole pass for a TD with9:36 to go and it was quickly 41-14.With 58.7 remaining, Anderson wouldrun it in from 12 yards out and in aneight-minute span the game was outof control at 47-14, which is where thehalf ended.The Knights got the ball first in the

second half and six plays later wereforced to punt. On Oak Hill’s secondplay, Daniels would bust loose for a 73-yard scoring run with 8:53 to go tomake it 54-14. With the Knights beingforced to pass, the Oak Hill defensewould step up one more time whenRandall picked off a Cole pass andraced 67 yards down the sideline for aTD, making it 61-14 with 2:16 to go.The Knights would get the lone

score in the fourth quarter whenbackup quarterback Joey Goff led adrive and scored himself with 4:47 to

I n d i a n aConservation Officersare investigating ashooting incident thatoccurred at the TriCounty shootingrange on Aug. 18around 5 p.m.

According toIndiana ConservationOfficer NathanHooley, JosephMiretti was firing hisRuger 22/45 MKII pis-tol, which Joseph hadaltered by mounting avertical foregrip to it.This type of foregripis typically used onAR-15 type rifles.Joseph was firing thepistol when he went toadjust his left hand,which was holdingthe attached foregrip.While doing so,Joseph’s left index fin-ger found its way infront of the muzzlewhile Joseph contin-ued to fire the pistol.

After shooting him-self, Joseph wastransported toGoshen GeneralHospital where he lostthe tip of his leftindex finger. OfficerHooley stated thisincident could havebeen avoided hadJoseph not altered thepistol by attaching apiece of equipmentthat was not designedto be used in the man-ner in which Josephused it.
