Dog reportedly attacked policeman, K-9 partner KENDALLVILLE — A police officer shot and killed a family dog in Kendallville early Saturday while trying to find a man wanted on a felony warrant. Police say the dog attacked the Avilla Police officer and his K-9 partner before it was shot. The dog’s owner says the incident could have been avoided, and that the dog was trained to alert family members to the medical needs of her dying son.
Kendallville Police officers went to the residence on Bellvue Drive in Kendallville at about 3:26 a.m. to attempt to serve a warrant, said Kendallville Police Chief Rob Wiley. Barb Miller, at whose residence the incident took place, said officers were seeking her estranged husband, James Michael Miller, who is wanted on a felony charge as a habitual traffic violator and for failure to appear at a court hearing. Barb Miller said James Miller
had been at the residence at about 3 a.m., but he had left by the time police arrived. “I do not know where he’s at,” she said. She was not home at the time of the incident. The family had five dogs. Upon arriving, police asked family members present to put the dogs somewhere while officers searched for James Miller, Wiley said. The dogs were released into the backyard, where an Avilla Police K-9 officer and his handler were searching, Wiley said. One of the dogs, which Wiley described as a bulldog, attacked the K-9, biting it

‘Zooland Baby’ brings world of animals to Pumpkin Fantasyland BY BOB BUTTGEN bbuttgen@kpcmedia.com
LIGONIER —For 41 years, the Pumpkin Fantasyland at Fashion Farm in Ligonier has offered families an entertaining way to spend a day. And while’s there always been a little education among all the pumpkins and gourds, this year the learning portion of the fantasyland is being kicked into high gear. The Pumpkin Fantasyland opens today at the complex, a couple miles west of downtown Ligonier on Lincolnway West. Hours are 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. for the entire month. This year’s theme is “Zooland Baby,” and the big, new addition is a pumpkin-based educational center that will allow kids to learn all they probably ever wanted to know about pumpkins. The Zooland Baby theme involves some 20 scenes inside the fantasyland, which has been turned into a temporary zoo, showing all types of animals from around the world. The displays show everything from aardvarks to zebras, with their faces and many body parts made of painted pumpkins, gourds and other living things harvested from the Fashion Farm fields. “We just never know how we are going to come up with our theme each year,” said Patty Becker, who coordinates the building of the displays, along with Tiffany Lower, greenhouse manager at Fashion Farm. “We had a giraffe in last year’s displays, and that gave us the idea to come up with a zoo. The ideas just come up as you are working on them.” Most of the painting is done by Noble County artist Sharon Cripe, who has been working with the Fashion Farm exhibit for nearly 30 years. Cripe also shows off her artistic ability in the SEE PUMPKINS, PAGE A6

and latching on. The Avilla officer, whose name was not released, had to pry the attacking dog loose, Wiley said. After he did, the dog attacked both the K-9 and the Avilla officer. The officer fired one round, shooting the attacking dog. Avilla Town Marshal Glen Wills said his officer had been asked by Kendallville Police to help with the felony warrant service. He said the officer was attacked by a pit bull, describing the same details of the attacks as Wiley.

Monroe County wants restrictions on I-69 truck stops BLOOMINGTON (AP) — Officials in southern Indiana’s Monroe County are looking at tougher rules for any trucks stops that might be built with the opening of the Interstate 69 extension. The county Planning Department is proposing the rules for new trucks stops in the Bloomington area. The proposal would ban overnight parking unless at a space with electrical service to prevent trucks from idling for hours. Another provision would limit truck stops to industrial zones and to within 2,000 feet of a highway exit or entry ramp. County planning director Larry Wilson said any new truck stop would have to be a state-of-the-art project, including plans for spill containment beyond fuel leaks. “It doesn’t have to be hazardous waste,” Wilson said. “It could be milk. But a few thousand gallons of milk could have a disastrous impact.” A 67-mile stretch of I-69 opened last November from near Evansville at I-64 to near the Crane Naval Surface Warfare Center southwest of Bloomington. Construction is underway on a 27-mile section between Crane and Bloomington that is expected to open to traffic late next year.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The federal government lurched toward a partial shutdown at midnight on Monday after Republicans stubbornly demanded changes in the nation’s health care law as the price for essential federal funding and President Barack Obama and Democrats adamantly refused. With Congress hopelessly gridlocked, Obama said hundreds of thousands of federal workers would be furloughed and government operations ranging from veterans’ centers to national parks and most of the nation’s space agency would be shuttered. He laid the blame at the feet of House Republicans, whom he accused of seeking to tie government funding to ideological demands, “all to save face after making some impossible promises to the extreme right wing of their party.” House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, responded a short while later on the House floor. “The American people don’t want a shutdown and neither do I,” he said. Yet, he added, the new health care law “is having a devastating impact. … Something has to be done.” The stock market dropped on fears that political gridlock between the White House and a tea party-heavy Republican Party would prevail, though analysts suggested significant damage to the national economy was unlikely unless a shutdown lasted more than a few days. While an estimated 800,000 federal workers faced furloughs, some critical parts of the government — from the military to air traffic controllers — would remain open. Any interruption in federal funding would send divided government into territory unexplored in nearly two decades. Then, Republicans suffered grievous political damage and President Bill Clinton benefitted from twin shutdowns. Now, some Republicans said they feared a similar outcome. If nothing else, some Republicans conceded it was impossible to use funding legislation to squeeze concessions from the White House on health care. “We can’t win,” said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.

Noble County needs to replace two bridges BY BOB BRALEY bbraley@kpcmedia.com
ALBION — Noble County needs to replace two bridges, the Noble County Board of Commissioners heard Monday. One of the recommendations from a state-required bridge inspection in the county is replacing bridges 12 and 70, said a report from United Consulting. Bridge 12 runs over the Bilger
Drain on C.R. 400S near Avilla, said Noble County highway engineer Michael Fitch. Bridge 70 is on C.R. 600W just north of U.S. 6 and spans the Elkhart River. A contract for work on Bridge 12 was awarded to Primco in May, and the project is on schedule to be finished in mid-November, said Commissioner Chad Kline. Work to replace Bridge 70 also has been discussed, and work is
likely to begin next summer or fall, Kline said. The state requires bridge inspections every four years. The new report examines the condition of bridges and recommends replacement, repair or maintenance, said Scott Minnich of United Consulting. Three bridges were recommended for replacement, but the CSX Railroad owns the
third — bridge 134 on C.R. 225E, which spans the CSX Railroad tracks just east of Albion. The county canceled a replacement project for Bridge 134 after CSX changed the plans last year. The project originally was budgeted for just more than $1.17 million in federal funds. CSX proposeed lengthening the planned overpass to accommoSEE BRIDGES, PAGE A6

Howe football returns after 29-year absence BY PATRICK REDMOND predmond@kpcmedia.com
HOWE — The football tradition at Howe School runs deep. The LaGrange County school first fielded a football team in the 1890s. But that rich tradition started running a little thin in the 1980s as the school, seeing its enrollment shrink, found it harder and harder to field a competitive team.

Both libraries will reopen Monday, Oct. 7, at 9 a.m,.
knew that every game his team played this year would be an uphill struggle. Burnham is the school’s Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps instructor. Nearly one-third of the total school enrollment came out to play football, but that amounts to only 19 players and one manager. The team doesn’t even have enough players to hold a scrimmage. Instead, the Howe team practices offense against a skeleton squad on one day, then turns around to practice its defensive sets the following day. Most players have to play both offense and defense. “We’re building tradition here,” Burnham said as he watched his team warm up. “We’re teaching them the game of football. I’m a first-year head coach, and I’m learning as much as they are.” Burnham said his goal has been to see his team become better players than when the season started. To the players’ credit, Howe has managed to remain a competitive opponent during the first half of most of its games. “We just run out of gas in the second half,”thecoach explained. Junior running back and defensive back Simon Williams said Howe football is about his teammates doing their best despite the odds. “Most of my friends are

He admits it’s been tough on him and others on the team to play almost every down of every game. “We just buckle down and play through it,” he

said. “That how much these guys wanted to play.” Burnham said he sees improvement in each of his players during each practice and each game. Howe started the season with less time practice time than any of its opponents. Because so many Howe students live outside LaGrange County, Howe’s football team could not start practicing football until the school opened for classes. That meant
the Howe Wildcats were a month behind other schools. “Our kids are getting better and in better condition every day,” he added. “We’ll get there.” Ultimately, the real measure of the Howe football team is not calculated in wins and losses, but in its character, he said. “They’re learning about teamwork,” Douglass said of his cadets.

‘Share Life’ event to promote organ donation BY PATRICK REDMOND predmond@kpcmedia.com
WOLCOTTVILLE — Wolcottville’s Mike and Roxy Padgett hope to do a little old-fashioned educating Saturday at LaGrange County’s David Rogers Memorial Park. The Padgetts are hosting a “Share Life� program, an event they hope will teach people about life-saving organ and blood donations. It’s a cause that’s very close to their hearts. In 2001, Mike Padgett was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease. PKD is a genetic condition that causes cysts to form inside the kidneys. Once the cysts
start forming, they continue to grow until the kidneys become huge, as much as 20 pounds apiece, and no longer function. The disease is progressive, and its only treatment is dialysis while the patient awaits a kidney transplant. Padgett, 55, and his wife quickly realized they needed a crash course on PKD and one about organ transplants, as well. Mike Padgett is a twin, and shortly after learning of his fate, his twin brother, Mark Padgett of Goshen, also was diagnosed with the hereditary disease. Both brothers eventually will need a donor kidney to survive. “There is a lot of misinfor-
mation out there about organ transplants,� said Roxy Padgett. She volunteered to be a kidney donor, but medical tests revealed she is not a good candidate for donation. Not letting that deter her, she now hopes to help clear away some of the confusion about organ donation. Padgett said she and her husband have put together a program aimed at dispeling many of the myths about organ donation, such as that donating a kidney decreases the body’s ability to flush toxins from the blood. “We just want to help people better understand organ donation,� Padgett said.
The free event runs Saturday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. at Rogers Park, just north of Wolcottville. Guest speakers will include Doug Penrod, a Chicago transplant coordinator and himself a kidney donor. Also sharing the stage will be Rachel Steury of DeKalb County, another kidney donor. The American Red Cross Bloodmobile will be on hand from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. taking donations. The event will feature live music and have a pioneer theme. There will be a pie-eating contest, gunny sack race, corn hole games and a chance for children to enjoy pioneer crafts. Padgett will be serving cowboy
stew, corn on the cob, chili, hot dogs and assorted baked goods. The event is free, and Padgett said not even freewill donations will be accepted. “My goal isn’t to convince someone who attends to be a organ donor� she explained, saying instead she merely hopes to help spread the real story of organ donation. “I just want people to be aware,� she said. “The more this story gets shared, the greater the chance someone, somewhere is going to say, ‘Hey, I’m willing to do this.’ I want to be like the guy who carries the sign around. I’m just not ready to give up.�

LIGONIER — Junior Achievement of Noble County is hosting a “Fall Fun” fundraiser on Saturday from 4-8 p.m. at the Fashion Farm on Lincolnway West. Volunteers from Junior Achievement of Noble County will host in an evening full of family entertainment including corn and straw mazes, hayrides, storytelling, a bonfire and marshmallow roasting. “By joining us at this event, you will be supporting JA classrooms across Noble County,” said Jana Miller of Lake City Bank in Ligonier, a longtime volunteer with Junior Achievement. With the support of educators and community volunteers, JA programs serve more than 2,400 students in the West Noble School Corp. “These JA experiences are igniting the spark in young people to experience and realize the opportunities and realities of work in a 21st century global marketplace,” said Miller. “When you come to Fall Fun, you won’t just be supporting JA, you’ll be supporting your schools, teachers, students and most importantly, your future.” Admission costs $11 per person, with children 2 and under admitted free. The Pumpkin Fantasyland will be open for visitors. Proceeds will go to benefit Junior Achievement programs in Noble County Schools. For more information, contact Miller at 894-3158 or Jana.Miller@lakecitybank.com. day-long learning experience. Avalon Village nursing home in Ligonier is sponsoring senior citizens’ day Oct. 19 at Fashion Farm. More information is available on the Fashion Farm Facebook page.
Barb Miller said the dog that attacked was Max, an American bulldog and pit bull mix. She described Max as an otherwise gentle dog that simply was protecting his family. When he found a strange dog and unknown man in his fenced-in backyard, he acted to defend his territory and his family, she said. The family took Max to a veterinarian, where he later died of his wound, Barb Miller said. “They killed a dog for protecting its place where it lived, protecting its family,” Barb Miller said. “I understand they’ve gotta do their job, but they didn’t
have to shoot him. … They could have (Tasered) him or something.” Miller said the human officer kicked Max during the attack. Wiley and Wills said the officer handled the situation correctly, under the unfortunate circumstances. “The officers were certainly following proper protocol with the serving of the warrant,” Wiley said. As to shooting the dog, he added, “It was the only choice they had after the dog attacked them.” The Avilla officer acted in accordance with Avilla Police Department rules and regulations, Wills said. “The
officer had to use the force necessary to protect him and his dog,” he added. Barb Miller said the situation is worse because her teenage son, Jerry Wilson, is dying of a rare liver disease, and Max was his dog. Max was trained to alert the family to signs Jerry was choking, she said. Miller wishes police had simply asked the family to hold onto the dogs to avoid the situation. “They could have warned us,” she said. Wiley said he does not believe family members were aware of the officers’ presence in the backyard when the dogs were released into the area.

always popular “Hall of Presidents.” The 20-foot-long display shows a likeness of every U.S. president from Washington to Obama, each painted on the front of a pumpkin. The faces are enhanced in great detail, including facial hair and other features. The Fashion Farm Pumpkin Fantasyland was started more than four decades ago by the late Charlie Williams, Patty Becker’s father. Her son, Jason Becker, is the third generation of their family to help lead the business. This year he came up with the learning center, in front of the Fashion Farm garden center, separate but adjacent to the fantasyland. “We’ve always tried to be educational with our displays but really took it up a notch this year. The hands-on learning center will help educate kids, and all visitors, about pumpkins,” Jason Becker said. The “anatomy of a pumpkin” display will allow children to cut open pumpkins and see the various parts. They’ll be able to weigh a pumpkin, take out all of the seeds and insides and then weigh the pumpkin again. Another display will allow kids to float a pumpkin to show how buoyancy works. Younger children will be able to play with a large pumpkin puzzle. Admission to the fantasyland costs $2, with the learning center available for another $1. Kids age 2 and under are admitted free. Learning center hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Each year, the fantasyland is visited by more than 1,000 school children who arrive by the busload from schools throughout northeast Indiana. Other special attractions include a hay maze and more. Sunday will feature the annual “Pumpkin Fun Run” at Fashion Farm, with several dozen classic autos and trucks brought to Ligonier by their owners. Saturday, Junior Achievement of Noble County is hosting a fundraiser at the Pumpkin Fantasyland, with tickets priced a $11 each as donations for Junior Achievement.

“We’re on the brink,” Sen. Barbara Mikulski, Md., said shortly after midday as the two houses maneuvered for political advantage and the Obama administration’s budget office prepared for a partial shutdown. On a long day and night in the Capitol, the Senate torpedoed one GOP attempt to tie government financing to changes in “Obamacare.” House Republicans countered with a second despite unmistakable signs their unity was fraying — and Senate Democrats promptly rejected it, as well. That left the next move up to Boehner and his House Republican rank and file, with just two hours remaining before the shutdown deadline of midnight EDT. They decided to re-pass their earlier measure and simultaneously request negotiations with the Senate on a compromise, a move that some GOP aides said was largely designed to make sure that the formal paperwork was on the Senate’s doorstep at the moment of a shutdown. Whatever its intent, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., rejected it. “That closes government. They want to close government,” he said.
As lawmakers squabbled, Obama spoke bluntly about House Republicans. “You don’t get to extract a ransom for doing your job, for doing what you’re supposed to be doing anyway, or just because there’s a law there that you don’t like,” he said. Speaking of the health care law that undergoes a major expansion on Tuesday, he said emphatically, “That funding is already in place. You can’t shut it down.” Some Republicans balked, moderates and conservatives alike. Rep. Phil Gingrey of Georgia said it felt as if Republicans were retreating, given their diminishing demands, and Rep. Scott Rigell of Virginia said there was not unanimity when the rank and file met to discuss a next move. Yet for the first time since the showdown began more than a week ago, there was also public dissent from the Republican strategy that has been carried out at the insistence of lawmakers working in tandem with GOP Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas. Rep. Charles Dent, R-Pa., said he was willing to vote for stand-alone legislation that would keep the government running and contained no health
care-related provisions. “I would be supportive of it, and I believe the votes are there in the House to pass it at that point,” the fifth-term congressman said. Other Republicans sought to blame Democrats for any shutdown, but Dent conceded that Republicans would bear the blame, whether or not they deserved it. Hours before the possible shutdown, the Senate voted 54-46 to reject the House-passed measure that would have kept the government open but would have delayed implementation of the health care law for a year and permanently repealed a medical device tax that helps finance it. In response, House Republicans sought different concessions in exchange for allowing the government to remain open. They called for a one-year delay in a requirement in the health care law for individuals to purchase coverage. The same measure also would require members of Congress and their aides as well as the president, vice president and the administration’s political appointees to bear the full cost of their own coverage by barring the government from making the customary employer contribution.

Briefly • Cubs fire Sveum CHICAGO (AP) — Theo Epstein is proud of the talent in the Chicago Cubs’ minor league system. The president of baseball operations thinks Dale Sveum is going to be a successful manager one day. He just doesn’t think Sveum is the right guy to help all those prospects become successful major leaguers. The Cubs fired Sveum on Monday after finishing last in the NL Central for the first time in seven years, ending a two-year run that produced more losses than any other stretch in the team’s cursed history. “It’s absolutely imperative that we create the best environment possible for young players to come up here, continue to learn, continue to develop and thrive at the big league level and win, ultimately,” Epstein said during an afternoon news conference. “And that’s not an easy thing to do. “A big part of the reason why we’re here today is because we took a good hard look at that and we decided that we needed to try to get it right before they come up.” Sveum was among Epstein’s first hires after the executive came over from the Boston Red Sox in 2011. He had little experience as a manager when he agreed to take the job, and he knew the Cubs were at the very beginning of a top-to-bottom overhaul that they hoped would transform them into perennial contenders. He just thought he would get more time to make it work. “You come in and you get a job like this and you want to see it through and so you’re very disappointed you didn’t get to really get anything started,” Sveum said in a parking lot outside Wrigley Field.

Barons winFreelsinnotches extra time 200th career victory BY PHIL FRIEND pfriend@kpcmedia.com
PHIL FRIEND
DeKalb senior Ashtin Egly tries to beat Bellmont defenders to the ball during Monday’s Northeast Hoosier Conference matchup. The Barons topped the Braves, 4-2.
WATERLOO — Monday night’s game against Bellmont was a landmark occasion for DeKalb coach Jed Freels. Freels, the boys’ soccer head coach since 1999, notched his 200th career victory Monday night with a 4-2 win over Bellmont. But it didn’t come without a little bit of theatrics. The Barons scored with five minutes left in regulation to force extra time, and got two goals from Brennan Cochran in overtime to seal it. “Two hundred is huge, not just for me as a coach but huge for the program,” Freels said. “When we took over our first year we were 8-9 (in 1999). We didn’t know if we’d ever have a winning season and we’ve posted a winning season every season since. That’s just the legacy of the hard work of all of our players.” Monday’s contest was
nearly a special one for Cochran, a junior. The striker notched a hat trick to bring him to 99 career goals, one shy of the magical 100 number. It appeared Cochran had scored his fourth of the match — and reached 100 — with six seconds left in the first overtime, but the whistle blew for a foul on a Baron player just seconds before he scored. “Ninety-nine goals and that’s against good competition against great high schools,” Freels said. “For us, it’s a great testament. If he’s got space to work the ball on his foot, you know you’re going to see something phenomenal. And we have a great support staff for him.” This match was very nearly a Bellmont victory. The Braves (7-7, 2-5 Northeast Hoosier Conference) routinely packed six defenders in the box to keep the Barons’ (12-3, 4-3 NHC) potent offense
at bay. Bellmont led 2-1 before DeKalb leveled the match five minutes from time, as Landon Cochran’s corner kick went right to Ross Gramling, who put the free header in the back of the net. “Honestly, I think we were a little flat-footed the whole game, not having our minds in it totally,” Gramling said. “And on that corner kick, I feel like everybody kind of knew that goal was going in. The intensity was there, it was quite, it went in. Hard work, that’s all.” Gramling, one of seven seniors, talked about the legacy of previous DeKalb teams in helping Freels notch his 200th victory. “It’s a huge legacy that we got to carry on from the past four years we’ve been here,” he said. It was all DeKalb in extra time. Brennan Cochran scored twice in the first seven-minute overtime period — the SEE BARONS, PAGE B2

East Noble senior Meliissa Huff scored three goals as the Knights topped New Haven 4-0 on Monday.
KENDALLVILLE — In the final regular season game of her career at East Noble, senior Melissa Huff came through with a hat trick as the Knights closed the Northeast Hoosier Conference season with a 4-0 shutout of New Haven. “She was on fire in front of the net,” East Noble coach Paul Cook said. “It’s nice to get a win here in the senior’s last regular season home game and hopefully build some momentum for sectionals.” The Knights will close the regular season on Saturday at Wayne and play host to a sectional tournament that begins on Oct. 10 with a first-round game against Leo. DeKalb and Angola meet in another first-round match at 7 p.m. “We have a tough sectional, DeKalb and Leo are really good,” Cook said. “Leo beat us 3-0 earlier this year. They’re a good team, we’ll have to play hard, hopefully keep it close and squeak a win out.” The Knights are looking forward to the challenge. “We want to prove we can beat them and get a win
Prep Soccer • and move on,” Huff said. Huff, who had four goals earlier this season in a match with Angola, struck with her first goal on Monday with 2:40 left in the half on a cross in front of the net by Taylor Rex. Up 1-0 at the break, the Knights struck again seven minutes into the second half when Huff broke free in front of the net and slipped a shot past the New Haven keeper. Huff struck with her third goal 17 minutes into the half on another assist from Rex. The final score of the game came with 1:50 remaining when sophomore Alex Rider connected. In all, the Knights had 22 shots in the game. “I’m just proud of the team, this was our sixth shutout of the year,” Cook said. “Our keeper does a good job for us — it’s just huge for us.” Senior Vickie Nguyen recorded the shutout in goal. East Noble is 5-8-2 overall and finishes the NHC season with a 2-5
mark for sixth place. The team’s league wins came against New Haven and Columbia City. Seniors on the EN squad are Huff, Nguyen, Audrey Slone, Janelle Wasson, Alissa Rex, Lindsey Casselman, Caraline Kolodziejczak, Jocelyn Houlihan and Cassie Gaff.

Kacey Wells scored two goals and Maddie VanWye added one in Monday’s victory. After the Barons and Squaws were tied at halftime and through much of the second half, Wells found herself scoring on two breakaways to break the tie and add an insurance goal.

Fleener playing big INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Coby Fleener has finally found his footing in the NFL. The Colts’ big tight end is catching passes and stretching defenses. He’s helping Indy’s ground game and providing Andrew Luck with a consistent outlet receiver. He’s playing with confidence, becoming productive and emerging as the kind of playmaker the Colts envisioned when they selected him in the 2012 draft. “In practices, he’s fast, he’s not thinking, you can tell when a guy’s thinking and you don’t see that,” coach Chuck Pagano said Monday. “You see him out there playing fast, a big, tall fast guy that’s athletic and can make plays. He had a great day yesterday (Sunday). Any time you can have an outing like he had and make plays, he’s going to build off that and it’s all confidence to me.” Part of the evolution is by design. He played with Luck and for Colts offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton at Stanford, and Fleener seems much more comfortable in his second NFL season than his first. The offense in Indy
(3-1) has changed, too. Hamilton has installed a tight-end friendly scheme that includes more power running and shorter, quicker passes, features that take better advantage of Fleener’s athleticism. The other part is that Fleener has taken advantage of his opportunities. When starting tight end Dwayne Allen went down with a seasonending hip injury in the season opener, Fleener knew he would have a bigger role in the offense, and he has responded. On Sunday at Jacksonville, Luck threw seven passes to Fleener. He caught five, matching Reggie Wayne’s total, for 77 yards and a touchdown. And over the last three weeks, the 6-foot-6, 251-pound Illinois native has caught 11 of 15 balls thrown in his direction. What’s different? “I would say that I have to pick up some slack as far as some plays where Dwayne would have been in,” Fleener said. “But ultimately, our game plan I think has stayed pretty true to what it would have been with Dwayne or without him.” The biggest change, though, has been confidence.

first on an assist from Grant Lockwood and the second unassisted, when he tucked a shot into a small opening near-post. DeKalb was on the attack throughout most of the first half, but Bellmont took a 1-0 lead 28 minutes in when Seth King scored against the run of play. Three minutes before halftime, Brennan Cochran tied the match at one after catching up to a through ball by Brad Lancaster and
outracing two defenders to put the ball in the net. However, just a minute later, the Braves retook the lead when Cook curled one in from distance past a diving Chase Secrist. Bellmont keeper Caleb Schell was busy all night. He faced 19 Baron shots on goal and they tallied 27 total shots for the game, a lot of them from distance due to the Braves’ defensive strategy. “There’s no doubt that we’re always playing a heavily-laden defense,� Freels
said. “We have to work to get through. We wanted to drop it back and try to do some scoring outside the 18, and we didn’t do very well because their center-mids also dropped back. When they resign themselves to do that, you know eventually a goal is going to go in — you just don’t know when.� Secrist made three saves on the the night. Lockwood, another senior, celebrated the win with the rest of his classmates.

In this June 24 file photo, the Chicago Blackhawks pose with the Stanley Cup after beating the Boston Bruins 3-2 in Game 6 of the NHL hockey Stanley Cup Finals, in Boston. There are old faces in
new places, new rules and a daunting challenge facing the Blackhawks, who attempt to become the first team to repeat as Stanley Cup champs in 15 years.
Can Chicago repeat? BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Enjoy the Stanley Cup-banner raising ceremony for as long as possible, Chicago. Once the puck drops to usher in the new NHL season in Chicago, Montreal and Edmonton today, recent history suggests someone other than the Blackhawks will be hoisting the Cup in June. The 1997-98 Detroit Red Wings stand as the league’s last franchise to repeat as champions. “You’ve got players moving all the time now. The competition level is good or better than ever before,� TV analyst and former coach Pierre McGuire said. “And the ultimate thing is we haven’t had NHL expansion in almost 12 or 14 years now. “And because of that, the talent bucket is full.� Despite that, McGuire thinks Chicago has as good a chance as any to repeat fresh off a lockout-shortened season. “I believe we can start to use the ‘D’ word with Chicago’s dynasty,� he said of a franchise that’s won two of the past four titles. Former player-turnedbroadcaster Eddie Olczyk, however, noted several obstacles facing Chicago. Namely? The Olympics. Chicago could have as many as 14 players competing at the Winter Games in Sochi, Russia. “When you throw in the Olympic break,� Olczyk said. “It’s going to be very taxing.� One step at a time, said Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews, whose team opens against Washington. “We want to put ourselves, come playoff
time, to be that team that can compete for it again,� Toews said. “There’s a lot of things that play into that. That’s our goal for now.� Here’s five more things to watch out for as the NHL enters its 96th year: FAMILIAR FACES, NEW PLACES: Vinny’s in Philly, Alfie’s in Motown, and Tim Thomas ended his one-year sabbatical to land in Florida. These were among the more significant moves involving the NHL’s old guard this offseason. Vincent Lecavalier started the ball rolling, when the former Tampa Bay captain signed a five-year, $22.5 million contract with the Flyers. Daniel Alfredsson, the long-time Senators captain, jumped ship to sign with the Red Wings. His departure prompted the Senators to acquire forward Bobby Ryan in a deal with Anaheim. And then there’s Thomas, who re-emerged last week by signing a one-year deal with the Panthers. NEW RULES: Un-tucked jerseys and visors are in fashion. And there’s the possibility of the NHL introducing a form of no-touch icing. The NHL Players’ Association gave the go-ahead for the rule change that makes icing a race to an imaginary line across the faceoff dots instead of the puck, which was given a trial run during the preseason. Hybrid icing will be in effect for the start of the NHL regular season. The goal is to reduce the chance of injuries that can occur when players collide at the end boards.
Sabres forward Steve Ott doesn’t like it. “I think it’s terrible,� he said. “There’s too much hesitation from the referee to the players going to get the puck, and that hesitation slows down the game.� In other changes, players with fewer than 25 games of NHL experience must wear a visor. Players will also not be permitted to tuck their jerseys into their pants to expose any protective padding. GOALIE SHUFFLE: There’s a spotlight on goalies who switched teams and on some that stayed put. Cory Schneider is out of Roberto Luongo’s shadow in Vancouver to become Martin Brodeur’s heir-apparent in New Jersey. The Toronto Maple Leafs made a bid to shore up their crease by acquiring Jonathan Bernier in a trade with Los Angeles. Then there’s the Flyers’ near-annual offseason carousel. Newly signed free agent Ray Emery is competing with Steve Mason for the starting job after Philadelphia gave up on Ilya Bryzgalov. Questions remain regarding the status of several established veterans. In Pittsburgh, Marc-Andre Fleury is on the hotseat after his latest playoff meltdown sent him to the bench last spring. Fleury will open the season as the starter by default with Tomas Vokoun out indefinitely due to blood clots. Ryan Miller’s future in Buffalo is uncertain, too. The Sabres haven’t ruled out the possibility of trading Miller before his contract expires after this season.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Texas AD to retire in 2014
MLS Standings
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Longtime Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds will step down in August 2014 and move into a consulting role at the nation’s wealthiest college athletic program, a person with knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press on Monday. The school is expected to make a formal announcement today, according to the person who spoke condition of anonymity because they did not want to pre-empt a statement from university officials. The Austin American-Statesman first reported Dodds’ decision. Dodds could not immediately be reached for comment. Dodds vigorously denied a report earlier this month that he was stepping down on Dec. 31. Under the retirement plan to be announced today, Dodds will remain on the job through Aug. 31, 2014 and move into a consulting role through 2015. Dodds is under contract at Texas through 2015 at $700,000 per year with a $1 million annuity if he’s employed at the end of August 2014. Dodds, 76, came to Texas from Kansas State in 1981. During his tenure, the Texas men’s program has won 14 national championships and 107 conference titles, most notably the 2005 national football championship. Texas also modernized and expanded its stadiums and facilities and grew into a massive, money-generating machine that brought in $163 million last year. Dodds — who once said about Texas’ wealth, “We are the Joneses” — oversaw the school’s shift from the old Southwest Conference to the Big 12, and Texas’ 20-year, $300 million partnership with ESPN for the Longhorn Network, a 24-hour channel dedicated to Longhorns sports.

Twins keeping Gardenhire MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Twins and manager Ron Gardenhire agreed to a new two-year extension on Monday, keeping the second-longest tenured manager in the big leagues in the Twin Cities through the 2015 season. “My father was a military guy and said the easy thing to do was walk,” said Gardenhire, who just finished the final season of his existing contract. “The hard thing to do was stay and try to make it better. That’s what I’m going to try to do here. I want to make it better.” Gardenhire has a career record of 998-947 (.513) as a major league manager, and trails only Tom Kelly on the Twins’ all-time win list (1,140). But all the losing the last three years was starting to wear on the fans, many of whom wanted to see some big changes made to an organization seems lost its way after being a model franchise last decade. Instead, the Twins brought back the 2010 AL manager of the year and his entire staff, too. “Ron Gardenhire didn’t get stupid overnight,” Twins President Dave St. Peter said. “He was the manager of the year in 2010. I don’t think there’s been a manager, a coach in this town that has ever connected with Main Street Minnesota better than Ron Gardenhire. I think people relate to him. I think they’re angry with the Twins and people want a scapegoat. “But at the end of the day, we believe organizationally and I think most Minnesotans believe that Ron Gardenhire isn’t the problem. We’ve got to get him better players.”
Wilfork likely out for season FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Vince Wilfork was pursuing a play when he planted his right foot, dropped to the ground and probably ended his season. “It doesn’t look too good for Vince,” New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick said Monday on WEEI radio. “I think he’s got a pretty serious injury and it’s probably unlikely that he’ll be able to play again this year.” The Boston Globe reported that the star defensive tackle tore his right Achilles tendon in Sunday’s 30-23 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Belichick did not specify the injury. Wilfork’s agent, Kennard McGuire, did not respond to requests for comment. At his news conference earlier Monday, Belichick said he didn’t know much about Wilfork’s injury or whether he would miss most or all of the remaining games. He said he hadn’t met yet with medical personnel.
Kings extend Cousins’ deal SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Vivek Ranadive has made a fortune in the software industry by betting on the right people. The new owner of the Sacramento Kings is now betting big on DeMarcus Cousins. The Kings signed Cousins to a four-year maximum contract extension worth a reported $62 million Monday, saying the 23-year-old center is the foundation the franchise will build on to lead a struggling team into a new era. Sacramento hasn’t had a winning season since 2006, but the new Kings management is comfortable investing in a player considered one of the NBA’s best young big men but who also has drawn multiple suspensions from both the team and the league for his behavior. “From my perspective, it isn’t really that much of a leap of faith,” said Ranadive, whose purchase of the team from the Maloof family was approved by the NBA in May. “I’m just doing what I do in my business every day, just betting on the best. And he represents the best.” Cousins led the Kings last season with averages of 17.1 points and 9.9 rebounds.

Reports raises concerns for Hoosier girls A new report focusing specifically on Hoosier girls identifies several challenges for Indiana. Saint Mary’s College in South Bend has compiled “The Status of Girls in Indiana 2013” — the first report of its kind. A first The report says teen glance pregnancy is on the reveals decline for both the concerns about high nation and Indiana, but rates of sexual it is not improving as rape, activity and quickly in Indiana. depression among Indiana’s young women ages 10-19. The report says 14.5 percent of Indiana high school girls in a 2011 survey reported they had been raped — the second highest rate among 46 states reporting such data. In Indiana high schools, about 51 percent of girls said they have had sexual intercourse, although only 40 percent said they were currently sexually active. About a third of Indiana girls in grades 8-10 reported feeling sad or hopeless. Girls were more likely than boys to consider, plan or attempt suicide. One expert reacting to the report wants to know if girls are being taught in school how to respond when they are threatened with rape or other forms of sexual violence. The report does not indicate how the rate of voluntary sexual activity among Indiana high school girls compares to national averages. But whether it is above or below average, Indiana’s rate seems disturbingly high. The report says teen pregnancy is on the decline for both the nation and Indiana, but it is not improving as quickly in Indiana. In addition to depression issues, Hoosier girls struggle with body-weight expectations. Indiana’s high school girls were more likely than all U.S. high school girls to take diet pills, powders, or liquids, as well as vomit or take laxatives in order to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight. However, Indiana’s high school girls actually are more likely to be overweight than the national average. They also were more likely to be overweight in 2011 than they were in 2003. Pointing to the reasons, the report says Hoosier girls are less physically active than boys, and their diets are worse than national averages. On the bright side, girls are more likely to graduate from high school than boys. The graduation rate is 91 percent for girls, compared to 86 percent for boys in Indiana. It’s good to see that Hoosier girls are completing the journey to a high school diploma, but the path through their school years should not be so filled with perils. Schools, families and community institutions need to work on ways to help Indiana girls find happier, healthier roads to adulthood.

Letter to The Editor • What Thomas Jefferson should have said To the editor: After the Constitution and Bill of Rights were ratified, Thomas Jefferson said: “I predict future happiness for
Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.” He probably should have added: “And, from the history of governments, to secure that happiness over the long
term, it is obvious Americans will have to reject every such pretense.” As I’ve said before, “The government large enough to give you all you need is large enough to take all you have.” Fritz Busch Fort Wayne

Who wears the sweatpants in this house? After Sue wrote “Wash me” with her finger in the dust on the most expensive piece of exercise equipment I own, I joined the health club. At home, I just wasn’t getting it done. I’d walk past the equipment 20 times a day and say to myself, “I’ll do that right after lunch.” After lunch, I’d think, “It can wait till after dinner. But should you really exercise after a heavy meal? I’ll do it in the morning.” Besides, there’s so much other stuff to do at home, so many distractions — answer the phone, let out the cat, vacuum the carpets, let in the cat, do the laundry, let out the cat, go on an errand, let in the cat, shop for dinner, let in the cat, oh, he’s already in, visit Facebook, check my email, let out the cat, and watch that TV infomercial about how much better I’d feel and look if I just bought this one piece of exercise equipment that does everything the other one doesn’t. But it turns out that lying on the sofa, watching “Duck Dynasty,” eating Hot Pockets and listening to the cat snore next to a piece of exercise equipment doesn’t really melt away the pounds. Owning it isn’t enough: Apparently, you
have to use it. Who knew? Unless you’re a truly motivated person, it’s almost impossible to stick to a regime at your own house. Besides, you don’t really need any fancy equipment to do pushups, crunches or squats; you just have to do them. If you’re not already exercising JIM without the equipment, you MULLEN won’t suddenly start exercising with it. That’s why I joined the health club. Once you’re there, there’s not much else to do but exercise. The thing I like about my health club is that I am not the most out-of-shape person there. They seem to have gone to great lengths to find people who are as lazy and paunchy as I am, or worse, which is a comfort. And absolutely no one there looks like they are going to win a gold medal in weightlifting or beach volleyball in the next Olympics. It’s full of normal people like schoolteachers and bank tellers, trying to keep one step ahead of

dreaded couch potato buildup. I had to buy a new gym bag and some sweats, so I’m pawing through the sweatpants at the Shop and Go Away and everything on the shelf is size 4XL, 3XL or 2XL. Obviously, if you are buying the 4XL, you are either a professional athlete or you don’t sweat very much. I’ve also noticed that a lot of people in this store are wearing sweatpants even though they’re not at the gym. When I was in school, after we exercised, we changed back into our school clothes and put the smelly gym clothes in our lockers. Sweatpants weren’t something you’d wear when you weren’t actually in the gym or on the field. Now people go to the mall in sweat clothes; they fly across the country in them. It’s so common to see people who obviously don’t run wearing running gear, to see people who don’t play tennis wearing tennis togs, to see people who don’t play football or basketball wearing football and basketball jerseys that we don’t even notice it anymore. I don’t know what you’re wearing as you read this, but however casual it is, there’s probably somebody in line down at the bank wearing something even less

• appropriate. It strikes me that the fashion industry should take note of what the sportswear designers are doing — that is, name their clothing for what people should be doing when they wear it. If they can make running shorts and swimsuits and yoga pants, why can’t they make Flying On An Airplane clothing? Supermarket Shopping clothing? Waiting For The Bus clothing? Applying For a Job clothing? They could do it without breaking a sweat. JIM MULLEN is a syndicated columnist with Newspaper Enterprise Association. He can be contacted at JimMullenBooks.com.

Husband supports his wife through mastectomy DEAR ABBY: I am writing in response to “Anonymous in Wisconsin” (Aug. 11), the cancer survivor whose husband has lost interest in her after her double mastectomy. I am OUTRAGED by his insensitivity and lack of love. She says she doesn’t want to leave him. My question to her is, why not? She deserves better. I am a cancer survivor who was diagnosed with breast cancer seven months after I was married. Prior to my decision to have a radical mastectomy, I offered my husband the chance to leave. (After all, one doesn’t expect “worse” to come so soon after the wedding.) The prospect of children, which we had discussed and was important to us, was uncertain because of my subsequent chemotherapy. My husband didn’t hesitate. He said, “You would not leave me. We will adopt.”

On our first wedding anniversary I was bald, and he treated me to a beautiful, romantic getaway. Although I did have reconstruction, it was a long process. He was supportive from day one. Fifteen years later, I was DEAR diagnosed breast ABBY with cancer again. I had Jeanne Phillips another radical mastectomy followed by chemo and reconstruction. Abby, my husband again made me feel beautiful even when I didn’t. There are men out there who define a woman not by the size of her breasts, but by the beauty of her heart. — SURVIVOR IN

NATICK, MASS. DEAR SURVIVOR: I want to thank you and the many breast cancer survivors who wrote me — and their supportive spouses — for telling me your personal stories. Readers, I am printing this to remind you that October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Read on: DEAR ABBY: I had to write to “Anonymous.” I kept hoping my husband of 20 years would change his mind and accept my new body. However, because he could not, I chose to divorce him and it liberated me. At first, I felt that if the one person who was supposed to care couldn’t look at me, then no other man would either. I was wrong. After five years of dating, I never once encountered a man who was as insensitive as my husband had been. I have now found the man of my dreams.

Antiviral medicines help ease shingles pain he never had worn to work before. If you’re over age 50 and have had shingles pain for less than three days, the current recommendations call for doctors to prescribe antiviral medicine to kill the virus that causes shingles. (If you are younger than ASK 50 and very DOCTOR K. uncomfortable from shingles that Dr. Anthony began in the last three your Komaroff days, doctor may still prescribe antiviral therapy.) The two medicines recommended most often are famciclovir (Famvir) and valacyclovir (Valtrex). These antiviral medications not

only help shorten the days of pain that you have, they also help reduce the risk of long-lasting shingles pain, a condition called post-herpetic neuralgia. The pain that accompanies shingles can be intense. If the antiviral medicine does not provide enough relief, you can take additional pain medicines. Start with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen. If necessary, your doctor will prescribe more potent pain medicines; these include codeine, tramadol and (when the pain is very severe) oxycodone. Some studies led doctors to add corticosteroid drugs such as prednisone to the treatment of shingles. However, as more studies of this treatment have been completed, it looks as though these medicines may offer more risks than benefits. You should also gently

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’ve been diagnosed with shingles. What can I take for the pain? DEAR READER: Shingles, also known as herpes zoster or just zoster, is caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It is the same virus that causes chickenpox. Once you have had chickenpox, the varicella-zoster virus remains in your body’s nerve tissues. It is inactive, but it can be reactivated later in life. This causes shingles. When the virus reactivates, it causes a burning or tingling sensation in the affected areas. A few days later, the virus causes a blistery rash. (I’ve put an illustration of this process on my website, AskDoctorK. com.) Your affected skin may be so painful and sensitive that you cannot even stand having your clothing touching the area. One patient of mine with shingles on his forearm switched for several weeks to wearing a short-sleeved shirt to the office, something

rinse your skin rash and blisters once or twice daily with cool water. Your doctor may suggest that you use antibiotic ointment on open areas. Shingles usually takes seven to 10 days to run its course. Blisters may take several weeks to disappear completely. The duration of pain is highly variable. Most people’s pain decreases within two or three months. However, a small number of people develop post-herpetic neuralgia and continue to have pain for many months, or even years. Different medications from those used during the attack of shingles are effective. These include tricyclic drugs, gabapentin and pregabalin. These drugs alter the way your central nervous system perceives pain signals. If the pain is severe, then the more potent drugs used for the pain of shingles may also be helpful.

Kenyan forces accused of looting Two generals forced to retire
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Jewelry cases smashed. Mobile phones ripped from displays. Cash registers emptied. Alcohol stocks plundered. For the second time in two months, poorly paid Kenyan security forces that moved in to control an emergency are being accused of robbing the very property they were supposed to protect. First the troops were accused of looting during a huge fire in August at Nairobi’s main airport. Now shop owners at Westgate Mall are returning to their stores after last week’s devastating terrorist attack to find displays ransacked and valuables stolen. One witness told The Associated Press that he saw a Kenyan soldier take cigarettes out of a dead man’s pocket. Shopkeepers spent Monday carting merchandise and other valuables out of their stores and restaurants to prevent any more thefts. No one can say for sure who is responsible, but Kenya’s security forces are strongly suspected. Soon after the attack began on Sept. 21, Kenyan officials put a cordon around the mall, allowing only security forces and a few government personnel to pass through. Since then, alcohol stocks from the restaurants
WASHINGTON (AP) — In a rare move, the top Marine on Monday forced two generals into retirement after concluding they should be held to account for failing to secure a base in Afghanistan against a Taliban attack that killed two Marines. Gen. James Amos, the commandant of the Marine Corps, said in announcing his decision that Maj. Gen. Charles M. Gurganus and Maj. Gen. Gregg A. Sturdevant “did not take adequate force protection measures” at Camp Bastion, a sprawling base and airfield in southwestern Afghanistan that was the Taliban target.

order a formal investigation after the attack. In June, Amos asked U.S. Central Command to investigate, and he said he decided to take action against the two generals after reviewing the results of that investigation. “While I am mindful of the degree of difficulty the Marines in Afghanistan faced in accomplishing a demanding combat mission with a rapidly declining force, my duty requires me to remain true to the timeless axioms related relating to command responsibility and accountability,” Amos said. Amos added that Gurganus bore “final accountability” for the lives and equipment under his command, and had made “an error in judgment” in underestimating the risk posed by the Taliban in the Bastion area of Helmand province, which included his own headquarters at a sprawling based known as Camp Leatherneck. Sturdevant was in charge of Marine aviation in that region of Afghanistan. Amos said Sturdevant “did not adequately assess the force protection situation” at Bastion.
