Delphos celebrates the 4th

BY NANCY SPENCER
DHI Media Editor
nspencer@delphosherald.com
DELPHOS With three days packed
with activities, the 2016 Kiwanis Fourth of
July Celebration exceeded the clubs goal.
Delphos and surrounding community
members poured into Stadium Park for
ballgames, competitions, free entertainment and, of course, food.
Each night was better than last years
and we had so many compliments about
the bigger entertainment tent and more
seating, Kiwanis member Cindy Metzger
said. Wednesday. People really enjoyed
having a little more room.
What Metzger heard most was the
appreciative comments about the fireworks and the entertainment lineup.
We really had the best bands weve
ever had, Metzger said. Were already
planning for next year and want to book
our entertainment as soon as possible.
Everyone needs to let us know what they
thought of the bands and who theyd like

to see come back or maybe theyve heard a
new band theyd like us to consider. Next
year is only two days so well only have
two slots to fill.
Along with more people comes more
food. Club members made numerous trips
to the grocery store throughout the weekend restocking food items for the hungry
crowd. On Monday, the chicken dinners
sold out in less than four hours a new
record.
We have upped our food supplies
every year, Metzger said. We increased
the number of chicken halves from last
year because we sold out and next year,
well probably fix even more. We also
added a deep fryer this year for our french
fries and well be looking at another one.
Everyone wants french fries.
Other food items included burger, dogs,
brats, BBQ pork and shredded chicken.
Many of the club members kept an eye
on the weather app on their phones as rain
moved in and out of the area all week-

end. With just a small drizzle on Monday

morning just prior to the Firecracker Bike
Ride, Metzger felt the event dodged a
bullet.
We were prepared with the bigger tent
for shelter but if it does rain, attendance
goes down, Metzger said. The good
thing is, because of the threat of rain, the
weather was much cooler than usual. I
think everyone was grateful for that.
Once again, the club offered free rides
for the children for four hours on Monday.
We are here for the kids and it just

makes sense that everyone should be able
to enjoy the day, Metzger said. The kids
love it, the parents appreciated it.
The celebration started Saturday with
dozens of fish were pulled the Miami-Erie
Canal, Bingo rang through Stadium
Park, the best-tasting pizza was chosen
and Shelby County Line sang their way
into the night.

Council discusses
water ordinance
BY NANCY SPENCER
DHI Media Editor
Games become life-size at the library
The Delphos Public Library’s Summer Reading Program made everyday games more fun on Tuesday by
making the games life size. Next Tuesday will be the final program at the library before the final party at Kangaroo
Cave on July 19. Kids played Operation, Connect Four, Skee Ball and KerPlunk. Kids pull sticks from the KerPlunk
hoping the balls dont scatter across the floor. (DHI Media/Kristi Fish)
DELPHOS An updated water ordinance was

the topic of discussion at Tuesdays Delphos Council
meeting.
Heard on first reading on June 20, the ordinance
outlines the citys policy for adjustments, using water
to fill pools and for extensive landscape, etc. Since the
city is moving toward a monthly-billing system, Safety
Service Director told council he believed the extreme
adjustments they had seen in the past would not happen anymore because problems would be caught much
sooner.
The current policy states that a resident may
request an adjustment in the water/sewer bill if an
over usage of more than 200 percent of the average
bill is caused by something out of the residents control, such as a leak in the ground between the water
meter and the residence, in a crawl space. An adjustment will be considered once every three years or 12
billing cycles.
Councilman Mark Clement asked if there was some
way to allow for an oops on the part of a customer.
They are our customers, Clement said. There
should be some wiggle room in there for a mistake. Not
everyone is in the basement on a regular basis.
Councilman Del Kemper agreed.
My mom would never hear a toilet running or hear
a leak in her basement and shes not about to go down
there, Kemper said.
After a short debate, Clement asked that the policy
be amended to include leaks in basements to be considered for adjustment with a second from Kemper.
When the votes were tallied, the amendment was
turned down 2-5 with Clement and Kemper giving the
only assenting votes.

Well done, Delphos!

Jim Metcalfe
Im just going to
take a short part of
my Musings to write
about the wonderful weekend we just
had as part of the
Kiwanis Fourth of
July celebration at
Stadium Park.
It may not all
be about sports but its my column, so there!
It was a great civic overall weekend for all involved: volunteers, players, coaches, fans, parents and the like.
The music was fantastic and high energy, the mood was
upbeat, the food was great as evidenced by the chicken
barbecue dinners being sold out in seemingly no time and it
was just a fun time to be had by all.
It just seemed a nice way to celebrate our countrys 240th
birthday!
We have a year to top that!
So, the Cincinnati Reds decided that their pitching coach,

Mark Riggins, was the reason for their woeful pitching this
2016 season.
Not the number of injuries to all of these prospects, forcing
even more prospects to step in.
Not with the number of prospects from the start that really
have not pitched well so far because they are still learning.
Not the decision by upper management to try and piece
together a bullpen with wishful thinking and bubble gum, putting players in positions they really werent made for that has
been a miserable failure.
Even they supposedly admitted they should have
signed more lower-level free agents to try and help carry the
load while these youngsters adjust to the major league level.
I guess the guy they gave this roster of pitchers to is the
one to blame?
Not those that actually made these decisions?
They are talking about not accepting lowered expectations
for this team and people being accountable for their play but
arent they the ones that really lowered expectations the last
several seasons with their dismantling trades and such?
And he is expected to do miracles with all these not-readyfor-primetime and out-of-position players?
My guess is that these pitchers that are coming back and
getting healthy will be better simply because they are getting
healthy from injury and in better shape and the sad part is
Riggins will not get the real credit he should but the new pitching coach former bullpen coach Mack Jenkins and new
bullpen coach Ted Power will.
Plus, to expect players making their MLB debuts to automatically be stars is ludicrous. Very few can step right onto a
major-league stadium and fit right in.
In other words, Riggins was trying to make do with players
that really were not ready for MLB at this moment.
You would already hope they were being help accountable
but isnt it hard to be held accountable when you simply arent
ready?
You can only do so much and improve so fast.
I do believe maybe its more of hope that they will
become legit pros for the Reds and help the franchise get back
to where they not only compete but win big.
And they are still hamstrung by the albatross that is Homer
Bailey and his $18 million salary (all told) for 2016 and $19
million for next season.
He might be back by late July now!
Perhaps there are some building blocks: Anthony DeSclafani
might become the closer they need even now. The rest is wait
and see.
Oh, well, its easier to fire one than 11.

Fetzer helps Cougs hold off Jays

BY JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
CONVOY There
werent many hits during
Tuesday afternoons ACME
Baseball Congress West
Sectional battle between St.
Johns and Van Wert at the
Crestview Sports Complex in
Convoy.
With only nine total base
hits, it came down to free
passes, errors and pitching.
Van Werts Caleb Fetzer
threw a complete game and
the Cougars took advantage
of seven free passes to build
a 4-0 lead and held on for a
4-2 victory.
Van Wert advances to the
6:30 p.m. final game today
with the winner-move-on of
St. Johns vs. Crestview earlier in the afternoon.
Fetzer ceded four hits, 3
walks (1 intentional) and two
runs, one earned, while fanning eight in his 111-pitch
(74 strikes) effort.
In the upper first against
Jays struggling starter Josh
Warnecke, a 1-out free pass
to Darius Eddins (stolen base)
and a 2-out slap to center by
Nick Gutierrez (stolen base)
and base-on-balls to John Lee
loaded the bases.
Holden Willingham led off
the second on an error, took
second on a Tristan Wehner
sacrifice and after Connor
Army walked third on
an error on Mason Carrs
grounder.
The Cougars got two in
the top of the third. With one
gone, Lee ripped a hit to left
and burgled second. Backto-back free passes (Nathan
Temple and Willingham)

The Jays tried to answer
in the home half. Seth Linder
hit a double off the fence in
left not missing a homer
by much and, an out later,
had to stay there on Eric
Vogts wicked-hop single that
handcuffed third baseman
Willingham.
Wehner doubled to left
center to open the Cougs
fifth and Hayden Maples
pinch-ran. Army tried to sacrifice bunt but was out when
it was ruled the ball hit him
out of the batters box in fair
territory. An out later, Eddins
drilled a single to right and
despite doing a somersault
around third, Maples scored.
Delphos Jefferson head

ACME coach Jason Mahlie
said of the errors. We struggled to get going, but once
we did we played alright.
They scored the games
final run in the fourth inning
when Jacobs was hit by a
pitch with the bases loaded
plating Spencer who walked
earlier in the inning.
Jefferson was unable to
crack the scoreboard despite
having two hits in the top of
the first inning. They would
have one hit in the third and
fifth innings as well, but
nothing would come of them.
Jay pitched a complete
game for the Roughriders,
fanning seven and walking
three batters. He also threw a
wild pitch, but allowed only
four hits in seven innings.
With the loss, Delphos
Jefferson is eliminated from
the ACME tournament and
has finished its summer season.
We are going to improve
in the offseason, Mahlie
said. We have some talent
here and hopefully we will
get everybody back healthy
because that really hurt us
here lately. I think these guys
are going to make a very
good team next year.
Eddins was caught stealing

by catcher Buddy Jackson.
Schwinnen was safe on
a throwing error to open the
home half but was thrown out
by catcher Storm Pierce.
The Jays cut the deficit
in half in the sixth. With
one down, Linder walked,
Jackson was plunked and
Vogt was safe on an error.
Warnecke slapped a hit up
the gut to get Linder in. Jacob
Youngpeter forced Jackson
at home. Schwinnen walked
to get Vogt home for 4-2
but Tony Sanders forced
Youngpeter at third.
The Jays threatened in the
seventh with one down.

Fetzer
Jefferson
(Continued from page 6)
Fetzer tallied two hits, two RBIs and
three stolen bases in the victory for Van
Wert while Jacob Pulford collected three
hits and two errors for the Jeffcats.
With the loss, Jefferson fell into the
losers bracket and they played the St.
Marys Roughriders in the next game of
the tournament immediately following
their first game.
In Saturday afternoons opening tourney game versus Lincolnview, having
more errors than hits usually means a loss
in the game of baseball.
Lincolnview found that out personally
against Jefferson.
Committing five errors that led to six
unearned runs, plus the Wildcats getting solid pitching from starter Darius
Shurelds and Andrew Foust, the Red and
White rolled up a 7-3 victory.
Shurelds went 6 2/3 innings, yielding 2 hits, five bases-on-balls and three
unearned runs. He fanned three in 104
pitches (55 for strikes).
Foust faced one batter in relief to
secure the win.
Ethan Parsons went the distance in
giving up six hits and seven runs, walking
three in a 98-pitch complete game (53 for
strikes).
The Wildcats took the lead for good in
the home half of the first. With two down,
Jacob Pulford walked, Tyler Shrider got
aboard via an error, both advanced on
a wild pitch and then scored on a 2-run
slap to right center by Brett Mahlie for a
2-nil lead.
Lincolnview tried to answer in the
upper second on a 1-out free pass to Thad
Walker who was then caught stealing
by catcher Dre Reed an error on Sam
Myers grounder and a stolen base; however, he went no farther.
Lincolnview made it 2-1 in the third on
a leadoff infield bloop by Nick Motycka,
a sacrifice bunt by Chayten Overholt and
a 2-base throwing error on a pickoff try.
The Wildcats went up 5-1 in the home

third, again with two outs. Pulford got
aboard on a swinging bunt to third, an
error on Shriders grounder and Mahlie
getting aboard on fielders interference as
Shrider tried to move up on his grounder loaded the bases. Shurelds worked a
free pass to force Pulford in. Dre Reed
grounded a knock into center to get
Shrider and Mahlie in.
The Lancers again tried to mount a
rally in the fourth on an error on Braden
Evans grounder; however, he was immediately caught stealing by Reed.
Lincolnview threatened with two
down in the upper fifth on free passes
to Motycka and Overholt and a bloop hit
to left by Gavin Carter; however, when
Motycka overran third and tried to get
back, he was thrown out by leftfielder
Jordan Boop.
Jefferson attempted to add to its lead
in the fifth. Pulford got a base-on-balls
but was erased on a Shrider grounder,
who was then erased on a Mahlie ground
ball. Shurelds singled to left kept alive
by an error on a foul ball but both runners remained stranded.
Jefferson did add to its lead in the
sixth. Daniel Lehmkuhle singled to center to open it, Jordan Boop sacrificed
(and was safe on a throwing error) and
Jacob Boop bunted the bases full. Foust
flied out deep enough to center to plate
Lehmkuhle and on the play, the Boops
moved up a base. Pulford bounced out
to get Jordan Boop home for a 7-1 edge.
Lincolnview finally rallied in the
upper seventh. With one down, Myers
earned a base-on-balls, moved up on a
2-out passed ball and after Motycka
walked advanced on a wild pitch. Both
runners scored on a throwing error on
Overholts grounder. Foust forced Carter
to foul out to Shurelds at third with one
pitch to end it.
Overholt started the game by getting
aboard on a 2-base throwing error on his
grounder but he went no farther.

Five essential steps to

financial independence
BY NATHANIEL SILLIN
Its never a bad time to consider life,

liberty and the pursuit of happiness but
Independence Day offers us a special opportunity. For me, those concepts also have
a great deal to do with financial independence. After all, the ability to take care of
yourself and your loved ones throughout
life is a great source of happiness and a
way to avoid stress and worry. And never
forget that greater financial freedom isnt just good
news for you financially
healthy households make
us all stronger as a country.
So make a financial declaration of independence
that you can celebrate year
round. Ive boiled it down
to five essential steps:
1. Plan. The only way
to build a strong financial
future is to live below your
means, essentially to spend
less than you make. The earlier you can
commit to that behavior and divert funds
to regular savings and investing, youll
be in better financial shape for a lifetime.
Budgeting (http://pmsfl.us/1mW4IsG) the
process of tracking income, subtracting
expenses and directing the difference to
essential financial goals is the way youll
afford retirement, college for your children and a range of other financial goals.
2. Protect. Why focus on protecting your
money, even before you have much of it?
Because protecting your money early on
will keep new money where it can grow.
The first task involves building an emergency fund that will hold three to six months
of reserves to cover everyday expenses
if you lose your job or have to shoulder
a major expense or repair. An emergency
fund will help keep you from having to
borrow in such a situation. The next step
is insurance. Whether you purchased a
home or you are renting a property, think
about everything you own. How much
would it cost to replace clothing, furniture,
appliances and electronics? Did you also
know that renters insurance offers liability coverage of medical or legal expenses
connected to your home? Your landlords
coverage is unlikely to cover any personal
liability you incur in a structural emergency or accident and certainly wont cover
you in case of theft. Its also important to
buy quality auto, home, health, and when
relevant to your circumstances, disability and life coverage. Insurance is about
preventing a range of financial setbacks.
3. Learn. While youre building your
emergency fund, become a voracious reader
and listener on financial topics. If you have
the time and resources, take classes on the

three major financial behaviors saving,
spending and investing. Consider working
with a qualified financial or tax expert to
determine if what youre learning is right
for your situation. Whether its a house,
a car, a continuation of your education
or a family, start linking this knowledge
with accomplishing actual financial goals.
4. Manage. Evaluate assets for growth
and income stocks, real estate and other
assets may fluctuate in value
over time, but if theyre producing dividends or income,
thats a worthy counterbalance
to market variations. Keep
studying various asset classes of investments so you can
build and adjust your portfolio as needed over time. Also,
dont forget to study the tax
ramifications of any investment you make taxes are
some of the most expensive
costs we pay. However you
choose to save, invest or spend, do so
with the least cost possible. In life, small
amounts add up investment fees, shipping
fees for goods you order online, even the
extra bag you pay to check at the airport.
Always question and try to avoid paying
the small amounts that leave your wallet because they will add up over time.
5. Evaluate. Our lives dont stand still and
neither should your financial planning. Any
time major events happen in your life a new
job, marriage, a baby, the death of spouse or
partner financial circumstances change.
Always be ready to reevaluate your current
savings, spending and investing behavior
based on whats going on with your life.
One last item to consider when thinking
about financial independence is giving.
We still live in a country where many
people struggle to find good jobs, raise
families and afford homes. Realize that
there should be a part of your budget
that goes toward helping the less fortunate. GuideStar (http://www.guidestar.org),
Charity Navigator (http://www.charitynavigator.org/), the Better Business Bureau
(http://www.give.org) or the Foundation
Center (http://foundationcenter.org) all offer
detailed research on charitable organizations
that you use to evaluate before you give.
Bottom line: You dont have to be
wealthy to become financially independent. Be diligent with smart spending,
detailed research and always prepare for
emergencies. Soon, youll be celebrating
your own financial Independence Day.

Simple Songs of Summer.

Lets go surfin now, Everybodys learning how,
Come on and safari with me,
Early in the morning well be startin out
Some honeys will be coming along,
Were loading up our woody,
With our boards inside,
And headin out singing our song
Surfin Safrai by The Beach Boys No.
14 1962. Somewhere around age 14 (1973)
I thought this was the coolest song Id ever
heard. A simple summer sound that just works.
SONGFACT:
Written
by
Wilson and lead
singer
Mike
Love, this was
the first recording to display
the distinctive
counterpoint
harmonies for
which the group
became famous.
The
recording was also
self-produced,
and taken to
Capitol complete
with its B-side
409
which
was a minor hit.
(songfacts.com)
Summer In
The City by The Lovin Spoonful No. 1,
1966
And babe, dont you know its a pity,
That the days cant be like the nights,
In the summer, in the city,
In the summer, in the city
SONGFACT: The song features a series
Crossword Puzzle
"Swimming Holes"
of car horns during the instrumental bridge,

starting with a Volkswagen Beetle horn, and
ends up with a jackhammer sound, in order
to give the impression of the sounds of the
summer in the city. The song became a gold
record. It is ranked number 401 on Rolling
Stones list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All
Time. (Wikipedia) Good Stuff and again so
simple.
Walking On Sunshine by Katrina &
The Waves No. 9, 1985.
I used to think maybe you loved me now
baby Im sure,
And I just cant wait till the day when you
knock on my door,
Now every time I go for the mailbox, gotta
hold myself down,
Cause I just cant wait til you write me
youre coming around,
Im walking on sunshine (Wow!)
Im walking on sunshine (Wow!)
Im walking on sunshine (Wow!) And
dont it feel good
SONGFACT: This song about unadulterated joy has been used in a number of feature
films including: The Secret of My Success
(1987), Bean: The Ultimate Disaster Movie
(1997) and American Psycho (2000). Also,
Jack Blacks character in High Fidelity (2000)
plays this song on a cassette tape. A cover
by the duo Aly & AJ was used in the 2005
Disney motion picture Herbie: Fully Loaded.
(songfacts.com)
One of the beauties of pop music is its not
always the great ones that make the great
songs. Hope your ears bump into some of
your favorite songs this summer. Sometimes a
simple song is sweetest and sometimes its as
simple as that.
Good Vibrations.

Delphos Police and Fire and
EMS departments will hold a
National Night Out from 7-10 p.m.
on Aug. 16.
The event is a community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods

hand for demonstrations, to answer
questions and connect with the

This is a zero-percent interest
loan and that stretch of road really
needs some attention, he sad. I
will keep council in the loop on
that project.
A renewal for the citys 4.05mill, 5-year property tax levy on
the Nov. 8 ballot was passed on
third reading Tuesday. The renewal has been certified by the Allen

The day started bright and early with little

anglers lining the banks of the Miami-Erie
Canal at 8 a.m. for the annual Optimist Fishing
Derby. More than 40 fish and three turtles
made their way to the weigh-in table during the
three-hour event.

Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3035 were Kyra
Foust with an 18 1/2-inch long carp weighing
2 pounds, nine ounces; and Bentley Duer with
a 20 1/4-inch long catfish weighing 3 pounds,
2 ounces.
Post Commander Shannon Wagner and
Junior Vice Commander Drew Munshower
presented the bicycles.
Jaxon Buzard won Smallest Fish at 4 1/2
inches long for $10; and Matthew Kriegel
caught the most fish for $10.
Nearly 100 children participated in the
derby and all who caught fish received a prize
and turtles were worth $2.
Optimist Bingo drew its regular crowd with
bigger payouts and rarely an empty seat.
Niedeckens Carry Out, Hickory Pit BBQ,
Jacks Pizza, The Topp Chalet and The Fort
faced off for the title of Best-Tasting Pizza.
After the crowd of more than 100 got a taste of
all five, they gave the Peoples Choice award
to Jacks Pizza. Owners Ruth Liebrecht and
Ron Baldauf accepted the traveling trophy, a
pizza paddle.
On Sunday evening, the annual Duck

ordinance authorized Jettinghoff to
issue payment of $79,226 to Stolly
Insurance for the citys property,
general liability and fleet insurance
for the 2016-17 year.
Coleman said he also sought
bids from private contractors for tar
and chip projects in the Van Wert
County portion of the Delphos.
Council asked that Coleman do
a comparison per square yard for
what Allen County is charging to
do the work and what the bid from
the private contractor equated to.
Coleman noted that the figures
would be very close as it is a very

The cost of a new ambulance is
nearly $200,000, which includes

Streets will research the cost
of leasing versus purchasing and
if makes and models make a difference. Fortener said he will call

that information is gathered.
Streets had applied for a grant to

took the stage for the nights entertainment,
drawing their usual tent-busting crowd.
On Monday, the Boys of Summer took to
the diamonds for a day of tournaments; the

and Lori Baldauf and the scent of the Kiwanis

the much-anticipated Basket Bingo with more
than $4,000 in prizes and in the evening, Your
Generation brought six decades of British and
American pop to the stage with young and old
filling the dance floor.
The event concluded with the annual Kiwanis Fireworks Show, which by the
crowds reaction and Facebook posts, was the
best in the area.
I made sure I took time to go out in the
crowd and watch the fireworks, Metzger said.
Its what everyone waited for all weekend and
if what they said was any indication, we had a
great show.
All proceeds from this years event go to the
new splash pad that will be installed to the west
of the Delphos Municipal Swimming Pool.

time if you can.

do your best to return the

Trivia
Answers last Saturdays questions:

In the 1985 movie The Breakfast Club, Claire was sent to detention for skipping class to go shopping.
Winning athletes at the 1900 Olympics in Paris received paintings instead of gold medals. At the time, they were considered more
valuable than medals.
Todays questions:
How many different flavored loops are in a box of Froot Loops
cereal?
Who was the Navys first female four-star admiral?
Answers in Saturdays Herald.
Todays joke:
The coach called one of his 9-year-old baseball players aside
and asked, Do you understand what co-operation is? What a team
is?
Yes, coach, replied the boy.
Do you understand that what matters is we win or lose as a
team?
The boy nodded in agreement. The coach continued, Im sure
you know, when an out is called, you shouldnt argue, curse, attack
the umpire or call him insulting names. Do you understand all that?
Again, the boy nodded yes. The coach continued, And when I
take you out of the game so that another boy gets a chance to play,
its not good sportsmanship to call your coach dumb, or stupid or
worse, is it?
No, coach.
Good, said the coach. Now go over there and explain all that
to your Grandmother.
