ALBION — A methamphetamine dealer known as “the General” will serve 20 years in prison for crimes involving his operation.

Heath A. Smith, 34, of Kendallville was convicted and sentenced Tuesday in Noble Superior Court I on charges of dealing methamphetamine, a Class A felony; corrupt business influence, a Class C felony; and maintaining a common nuisance, a Class D felony.

The charges stem from a raid by the Indiana Multi Agency Group Enforcement Drug Task Force on July 30 at Smith’s residence in the 400 block of

Pleasant Street, Kendallville.

Smith’s father, under cross-examination while speaking for the defense, testified that he had reported a bottle of alprazolam, the generic form of Xanax, stolen before the raid.

Noble County Prosecutor Steven T. Clouse said the bottle was found among items police collected at the scene.

Police officers testified that Smith’s was one of the larger labs they ever have encountered.

Among the 61 items recovered were 52 hydrochloric acid generators used in the one-pot method for manufacturing meth.

An undercover IMAGE officer said Smith had moved to the house

Dec. 26, 2012. Smith had been given the nickname “the General,” the officer said, adding, “Heath was in charge of a methamphetamine production business, and he was in charge of the decisionmaking process.”

Among the items recovered were a ledger sheet that showed who owed how much, the officer said. Some entries indicated the person owed a dollar amount or a certain number of boxes of pseudoephedrine, an ingredient used in making meth.

Smith allegedly told the undercover officer the operation was so big, he had to take on a partner, and that there was at SEE METH, PAGE A6

In Topeka, Ellspermann said, she heard similar comments from LaGrange County business leaders and elected officials.

“In agriculture, I heard there needs to be more amenities for young farmers in rural areas so they stay on the farms in the area,” she said.

Asked what the state is doing to address the problem, Ellspermann mentioned the Indiana Regional Works Council initiative announced by Gov. Mike Pence and signed into law in April. Each region will bring educators and employers together to evaluate and develop career and technical education that meets the demands of employers in that region. Each

WASHINGTON (AP) — Twice this year alone, Air Force officers entrusted with the launch keys to nuclear-tipped missiles have been caught leaving open a blast door that is intended to help prevent a terrorist or other intruder from entering their underground command post, Air Force officials have told The Associated Press.

The blast doors are never to be left open if one of the crew members inside is asleep — as was the case in both these instances — out of concern for the damage an intruder could cause, including the compromising of secret launch codes.

Transgressions such as this are rarely revealed publicly. But officials with direct knowledge of Air Force intercontinental ballistic missile operations told the AP that such violations have happened, undetected, many more times than in the cases of the two launch crew commanders and two deputy commanders who were given administrative punishments this year.

The blast door violations are another sign of serious trouble in the handling of the nation’s nuclear arsenal. The AP has discovered a series of problems within the ICBM force, including a failed safety inspection, the temporary sidelining of launch officers deemed unfit for duty and the abrupt firing last week of the two-star general in charge. The problems, including low morale, underscore the challenges of keeping safe such a deadly force that is constantly on alert but is unlikely ever to be used.

The crews who operate the missiles are trained to follow rules without fail, including the prohibition against having the blast door

Heath A. Smith is escorted to the Noble County Jail to begin serving his 20-year sentence for dealing methamphetamine, a Class A felony, issued Tuesday in Noble Superior Court I.

BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com

KENDALLVILLE — “A sense of urgency” is how Lt. Gov. Sue Ellspermann described what she heard from local and area business leaders regarding their need for skilled workers.

Ellspermann stopped at B & J Medical Inc., on U.S. 6 west of Kendallville, and the Noble County Courthouse in Albion Tuesday afternoon as part of her Listen & Learn Tour of Indiana’s 92 counties. At both sites, she listened to business leaders and elected officials to learn about the strengths, challenges and priorities of Noble County.

Listen & Learn session at Yoder Popcorn Co. in Topeka.

LaGrange County and Noble County were the 70th and 71st counties on her six-month long tour.

Ellspermann said one topic of her conversation with business leaders was the need to develop a skilled work force.

“Beginning in the high school learning skilled trades that can lead to jobs in manufacturing and agriculture is something I heard a lot,” she said after the session.

“They have the jobs, but need people with the skills.”

She said it was “eye-opening” for her how desperate local and area businesses are for skilled labor.

Albion seeking grant

BY BOB BRALEY bbraley@kpcmedia.com

ALBION — The Albion Town Council voted 5-0 Tuesday to apply for a federal grant for work on West Main Street.

The Transportation Enhancement grant would allow for reconstruction of the pavement of West Main from York Street to Village Drive, along with new sidewalk, driveway replacements, curbs and gutters, street lighting, traffic signs and pavement markings in the same section.

This is the second phase of a project begun in 2004 with work completed several years ago around the Noble County Courthouse square, said Albion Town Manager Beth Shellman.

Applications for the projects will open Nov. 1, Shellman said. The grants would be for state fiscal year 2017, which begins July 1, 2016.

When the project was first proposed several years ago, its estimated overall cost was $1.3 million, with most covered by the federal

grant, Shellman said. At that time, the total local funds to be spent on the project would have been $261,000.

Shellman estimated the overall project would now cost at least $1.5 million, with the local share increasing proportionally.

Right-of-way costs aren’t included in the grant.

If the grant is made, the federal project would be administered by the Indiana Department of Transportation. Grant costs include INDOT-required inspections.

Police upgrading dispatch

BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com

KENDALLVILLE — The police department will pay more than $53,000 to complete a computer-aided dispatch system for communications that a federal grant was supposed to fund, before the federal program was canceled.

The Board of Public Works Tuesday morning approved Police Chief Rob Wiley’s request to spend $53,589 for the system from GeoConex.

It will complete the police dispatch center’s limited computer-aided system and allow implementation of future upgrades. The cost includes software and hardware. GeoConex submitted the lowest of three bids.

In 2008, the police department was awarded a federal grant for a new digital records management system and a mobile RMS

onMAIN ST.

to replace its nondigital system. The second part of the grant, to be awarded in 2009, was the computer-aided dispatch system compatible with the RMS system, Wiley said. A department receiving an RMS system would be on high priority to receive a grant for the computer-aided system.

A modified computer-aided dispatch system with limited capabilities was installed in November 2008 so the department could use its mobile RMS. In early 2009, Wiley learned the federal government had canceled the grant program and no replacement program would take its place. The police department dispatch center has operated with a limited system for the past four years. “The upgrading of our computer-aided dispatch is critical to our keeping pace

with public safety technological advancements,�

Wiley said in his report to the board.

Wiley discussed the situation with dispatch supervisor Gordon Wells and the city’s IT coordinator, Rick Kiersey, and reviewed their options.

To pay for the GeoConex system, Wiley will encumber all unused 2013 budget funding. He has also budgeted $30,000 from two funds in his 2014 budget for the system.

In other business, the board: • approved use of public facilities for the KPC Sprint Triathlon on July 19 in Bixler Lake Park; the Noble P.U.L.S.E. 5K run and 2-mile walk in the park on Nov. 16; the Kendallville Christmas parade on Main Street on Dec. 7; and the Save the Strand 5K in the park on Nov. 23.

Briefs • Banana paint job to stay on house near PU WEST LAFAYETTE (AP) — The large yellow banana painted the full length of a two-story rental house near the Purdue University campus gets to stay.

The banana was painted last spring on the house, and West Lafayette officials have questioned whether it violates a zoning ordinance that bans houses from being used as billboards. The mural doesn’t include any wording, but rental company Granite Management uses a banana as its advertising logo.

Dave Buck, West Lafayette’s city engineer, told the Journal & Courier that no action will be taken against the mural.

“It is a bit of a close call on free speech grounds,” he said. “It is receiving very few, if any, complaints. We would obviously revisit the issue if further displays start cropping up.”

The house is now mostly gray with the banana’s stem starting near the roof’s peak at the front of the house and the banana image wrapping around the side.

Probe: No proof prosecutor took bribes INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A former Indianapolis prosecutor will not face charges that he accepted bribes while in office.

U.S. Attorney Joe Hogsett announced Tuesday that former Marion County Prosecutor Carl Brizzi had been the target of a federal investigation. But he said successful cases against two of Brizzi’s associates had not yielded proof that Brizzi took bribes.

Former Deputy Prosecutor David Wyser in July agreed to a plea deal on federal bribery charges. Another Brizzi associate pleaded guilty to wire fraud.

Brizzi was under fire for accepting $29,000 in campaign contributions from the father of a woman who was seeking a sentence reduction in a murder case and for arranging a lenient plea bargain for a business partner’s client.

Hogsett says he’ll report Brizzi’s conduct to the panel that oversees attorney discipline.

Work starting on French Lick expansion FRENCH LICK (AP) — Work is starting on a $15.5 million expansion of the events center at the French Lick Resort in southern Indiana.

A ceremony was held Monday to mark the beginning of construction at the resort that includes Orange County’s casino and the historic French Lick and West Baden Springs hotels.

The expansion expected to open in January 2015 will add nearly 60,000 square feet of space to the resort’s existing 109,000-square-foot conference and event center, The Herald-Times reported.

Expanding the events center will open it up to more companies and organizations, said Steve Ferguson, chairman of French Lick Resort’s parent company, Bloomington-based Cook Group.

Police dog bites boy during demonstration BRAZIL (AP) — A western Indiana police department’s search dog is off the job after biting an 11-year-old boy’s leg during a demonstration inside the county courthouse.

Brazil police chief Clint McQueen says the boy suffered puncture wounds to his calf when the dog bit him during a mock drug search being done for elementary school students as part of a Red Ribbon Awareness week kick-off event at the Clay County Courthouse.

McQueen tells WTHI-TV the dog responded to a sudden movement by the boy and released his bite within seconds after commands from his handler.

McQueen tells The Brazil Times it was an unfortunate accident. He says the dog won’t do police work until test results from a veterinarian are returned.

The event begins at noon and continues through 4 p.m., raising money for care packages to send to soldiers in all branches of U.S. military service.

“All money we collect for this event will help us to purchase more care package items and the postage to send them overseas. Last year we sent 183 care packages, and my goal this year is to try to get 250 care packages to send,” said Lisa Wilson, president of Indiana

Marines Family & Friends, which sponsors the event.

Several military vehicles will be on display Sunday, along with displays by businesses and organizations

that help military members and their families. The event also features a raffle, silent auction, souvenirs, refreshments and fitness competitions.

The “Saluting Marine,” Tim Chambers, will announce the names of veterans, and all branches of military will be involved with games and other activities.

Participants can choose a one-mile hike or 5-kilometer run. For runners, the advance registration fee of $20 includes a free T-shirt at the event. The entry fee will be $25 Sunday.

Hikers can carry care

package items and monetary pledges in their backpacks and may purchase T-shirts for $8 for sizes S through XL, $10 for 2XL, $12 for 3XL and $14 for 4XL. Hiking with a backpack develops appreciation of what soldiers do on a daily basis, Wilson said.

Trine extends Brooks’ contract ANGOLA — The Trine University Board of Trustees has extended the contract of president Earl D. Brooks II for an additional two years, through 2021.

The board credits Brooks with institutional growth during his tenure that began in 2000 when he became the school’s 16th president.

“Trine has completed one of its most successful years in the institution’s history, and as a result the Trine University board has unanimously agreed to extend the contract of the president,” said Rick L. James, board chair.

“President Brooks’ dedication to Trine is immeasurable, and his vision keeps moving Trine forward.”

In its most recent growth, on Oct. 4 Trine dedicated

its newest building, the $6 million Jim and Joan Bock Center for Innovation and Biomedical Engineering.

Brooks A $6.5 million renovation and expansion project began in March on the 750-seat T. Furth Center for Performing Arts, and it is scheduled for completion in May. In spring 2014, Trine will begin a $4.5 million renovation of Ford Hall to serve as the home for its Ketner School of Business.

The university said under Brooks’ leadership, more than $85 million in physical plant improvements have taken place, including

its University Center and new apartment-style residential facilities, along with upgrades to athletic facilities, laboratories and technology.

“One of the greatest honors in my life has been to lead Trine University,” Brooks said in a news release. “I’m elated for the vote of confidence, but I can’t take all the credit.

Alumni, trustees, faculty, staff, friends and supporters have caught the vision to make Trine even better, and the result is what you see in our beautiful campus and talented students.”

On Oct. 3, Brooks announced Trine’s $75 million Invest in Excellence capital campaign. The university was already past the halfway mark with $40

million. Invest in Excellence will build endowment, finance campus upgrades and benefit the Trine Fund that supports financial aid and scholarships for students.

Trine’s last campaign,Vision for the Future in 2009, raised $90 million to help transform the university.

During Brooks’ term as president, enrollment has grown from 1,300 students to 2,500 students, residential capacity has more than doubled from 450 to 1,100, graduate programs have been added, athletics have transitioned to NCAA Division III competition and branch education centers and regional campuses have grown to nine in Indiana and Michigan, along with a new campus in Peoria, Ariz.

Kruse seeking upgrades for IPFW

BY DAVE KURTZ dkurtz@kpcmedia.com

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne deserves a better status and funding level, says state Sen. Dennis Kruse, R-Auburn.

Kruse chairs a legislative committee studying the state’s regional university campuses. It meets for the final time Wednesday, and Kruse hopes it will endorse changes for IPFW. “IPFW at this time in history is worthy of having a unique designation, whatever the name might be,” Kruse said Monday. One possibility is declaring it a metropolitan campus, he said.

A result of a new designation, IPFW might be able to offer doctoral degrees and increase its funding, Kruse said.

“IPFW has never had a doctoral program,” Kruse said. As the state’s fifth-largest university campus, “I think it’s

worthy,” he added.

Kruse listed five possible doctoral programs for IPFW — education, health services (possibly doctor of nursing), insurance, orthopedics industry and engineering.

“If we have a unique status as a campus, maybe the funding formula could be a little bit different to enhance the funding of IPFW,” Kruse added. “It seems we should have a higher position in the funding status. IPFW’s down at the bottom almost all the time.

It seems to me, we shouldn’t be.”

Of the state’s 14 university campuses, IPFW traditionally ranks between 12th and 14th in funding, Kruse said.

With 13,459 students this fall, IPFW is larger than Indiana State University and the University of Southern Indiana. The only larger sites are the Indiana University and Purdue University main campuses, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianap-

olis and Ball State University.

Kruse suggested the possibility of having Indiana University govern all of the state’s regional campuses, instead of splitting the task with Purdue, which oversees IPFW. The Fort Wayne campus tends to have an equal distribution of IU and Purdue students, he said.

“If you started over in Indiana, you probably would have only one regional campus system instead of having two,” Kruse said.

He also thinks Indiana University might be a stronger advocate for the Fort Wayne campus.

“IPFW has 33 buildings.

Purdue University has never requested one of those buildings to be built in Fort Wayne,” Kruse said. All new buildings at IPFW have come at the request of state legislators, he said.

“Someday, I think it should

become an independent university,” Kruse said about IPFW. “We are not pushing for independence now, but someday that may be a topic to discuss.”

Kruse said he understands that many IPFW students like the idea that their degrees are awarded by Indiana University or Purdue University.

Still, he said, “I think there’s a day coming when Fort Wayne deserves its own university.” He points to the model of the University of Southern Indiana, which in 1985 became independent from Indiana State University.

Kruse graduated from IPFW in 1970 and was in the second freshman class to enroll at the campus, when it had only one building. Since then, it has grown from approximately 500 students to more than 13,000.

“It’s been a great asset for northeast Indiana,” he said about IPFW.

the school in an off-duty capacity for the school corporation, Wiley said.

Sgt. John Dixon has been working as a full-time resource officer at East Noble High School under a memorandum of understanding between the school corporation and the city, with the school corporation paying 75 percent of his costs. The city pays the other 25 percent.

East Noble Superintendent Ann Linson asked Wiley if he could provide a full-time officer at the middle school under the same type of memorandum of understanding.

“Resource officers have proven beneficial to both East Noble and the city,� said Wiley. He pointed out the presence of Sgt. Shearer at the middle school with approximately 575 students has contributed to a reduction in physical conflicts and allowed faster and smoother resolution of incidents. “School resource officers provide security and a positive role model for students,� Wiley said in his report to the board.

The 2014 police department budget has designated $44,973 in reimbursement for 75 percent of the wages and benefits from

least one person called a lieutenant who acted as a lookout to see if police were in the area.

Smith allegedly told the officer that his drug of choice was marijuana, not meth, adding that he got into making meth to make money and pay bills.

Defense attorney Eric Blackman said his client had four misdemeanor marijuana cases and an operator’s license suspension in Michigan, all of which were at least 10 years ago.

Smith had lost his job and hit hard times, Blackman said, adding, “He made a very bad choice to engage in contact that is illegal. ‌ This is someone who can be productive to society if we don’t throw him away.â€?

Blackman asked that Smith be sentenced to 6-8 years followed by probation. “I did it because I had no other way to pay the bills.

The woman I thought I loved talked me into it. She was hooked on it,� Smith said. He asked the court for mercy.

Clouse asked Noble

the school corporation for the full-time middle school resource officer, Wiley said.

The remaining 25 percent of wages and benefits, approximately $14,911, is also included in the budget.

Reimbursement from the school corporation will go into the city’s general fund.

The police department did not add an officer position when Dixon was assigned to the high school full-time.

The government’s release of the September jobs report had been delayed 2½ weeks by the shutdown. Temporary layoffs during the 16-day shutdown will probably depress October’s job gain.

That means a clear picture of the job market won’t emerge before November jobs figures are issued in December. “The economy is too fragile for the Federal Reserve to touch,� Sung Won Sohn, an economist at California State University, said. “The shenanigans in Congress have hurt confidence and increased uncertainties.�

Average U.S. job growth has fallen sharply in the past three months. The economy added an average of 143,000 jobs a month from July through September. That was down from the 182,000 average gain from April through June and well below the 207,000-a-month pace from January through March.

The report â&#x20AC;&#x153;reinforces the impression that the labor market was losing a little momentum heading into the shutdown,â&#x20AC;? said Josh Feinman, global chief economist at Deutsche Asset and Wealth Management.

Clouse asked that Smith be sentenced to 35 years in prison for the Class A felony, six years for the C felony and three years for the D felony, all to be served.

He sentenced Smith to five years for the C felony and two years for the D felony, all served, with all three sentences to be served at the same time.

Kirsch gave Smith 84 daysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; credit for time already served. He ordered Smith to pay $3,500 in fines and $368 court costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was a business,â&#x20AC;?

THE HERALD REPUBLICAN

FORT WAYNE — Angola’s volleyball team fought off New Haven in the first match of the Class 3A Bishop Dwenger Sectional Tuesday night to advance to semifinal play Saturday.

The Hornets defeated the Bulldogs 25-12, 25-23, 18-25, 25-20. Angola (17-16) will play the host Saints in the first semifinal Saturday at 11 a.m.

“In the first game, we almost won in six rotations. Then we lost a little bit of focus,” Hornets coach Trisha Perschke said. “But the girls showed their perseverance to win the match. We decided to work hard to finish.”

“We had contributions from everybody. Molly Smith had some great blocks. Tori Yagodinski pulled through to get kills at key times. Lauren

Henderson has been our most consistent server all season long.

But everybody served well and really placed it.”

The Bulldogs briefly had the better start in the first two games.

Angola took control to dominate the first game, then had to overcome a flurry of errors late in game two to take a 2-0 lead.

The Bulldogs rallied from a 20-13 deficit in game two to tie it eventually at 23. Then Yagodinski had a kill after a New Haven scramble to keep a play alive on defense. The Bulldogs then had a hitting error on match point.

In game three, New Haven started better and it lasted longer.

But Angola recovered as Tana Willibey had two aces to cap a 7-0 run which put the Hornets ahead 8-6.

AHS rallied again later in the game. Smith had a kill to cap a 6-1 spurt which put the Hornets

in front 17-16. But the Bulldogs followed with the decisive run of the game. New Haven senior Courtney Tracey had three aces in a 6-0 spurt. That was part of a game-ending 9-1 run which extended the match.

The Hornets separated themselves from New Haven early in game four with a 6-0 run, including five points on Paige Emke’s serve, to take an 11-5 lead. But New Haven never went away.

The Bulldogs tied the game four times, with the last deadlock at 20. But they never took a lead and Angola scored the final five points to end the match.

That spurt started with well-placed hits on the second touch by Claire Grubb and Brookston Perschke for points.

It ended with two kills by the sophomore Smith.

CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — When the NCAA’s long-awaited decision arrived Tuesday morning, Miami athletic director Blake James realized it was what he expected all along.

“Fair,” James said. “But significant.”

And final. The Miami-NCAA saga is over.

More than 2½ years after former booster and convicted felon Nevin Shapiro contacted the NCAA from prison and began detailing his role in rampant rule-breaking by those involved with Miami’s football and men’s basketball programs, the Hurricanes got their final penalties.

The most notable sanctions are the nine lost football scholarships over three years and one lost basketball scholarship in each of the next three seasons.

A three-year period of probation, which started Tuesday, and some recruiting restrictions are JAMES FISHER also part of the penance.

Cardinals, Red Sox renew October rivalry BOSTON (AP) — Lance Lynn squeezed through a door leading into the Green Monster, shimmied along a cramped space behind the famed left-field wall and peered out a tiny metal slot in the Fenway Park scoreboard.

“A little snug for me,” the burly St. Louis pitcher said.

Plenty of Cardinals got their first look at the century-old ballpark during a workout Tuesday, a day before they opened the World Series against the Boston Red Sox. The Red Sox saw a neat sight, too. As they took batting practice at dusk, a giant, vibrant rainbow formed high in the sky beyond center field. Slugger David Ortiz noticed.

“Oh, yeah,” he said. “It’s a Dominican thing.”

Whatever, Big Papi. Something special always seems to happen when the Redbirds and Red Sox meet, from Stan the Man vs. the Splendid Splinter, to Gibby vs.

Yaz, to Pedro vs. Pujols.

Now, they’re set to meet for the fourth time in “that Octobery kind of air,” as Cardinals Game 1 starter Adam Wainwright described it.

Jon Lester will oppose him Wednesday night, facing a lineup

that got a late boost. Allen Craig, who hit a major league-leading .454 with runners in scoring position but hasn’t played since Sept. 4 because of sprained left foot, is set to return.

“I feel like I’m in a good spot,” said the cleanup man, who will be the Cardinals’ designated hitter.

Weather could be a factor.

Temperatures are supposed to dip into the low 40s and rain is in the forecast.

Boston was listed as a slim favorite in the matchup between teams that tied for the big league lead in wins. The clubs haven’t met in the regular season since 2008, and Red Sox speedster Jacoby Ellsbury was looking forward to this pairing that some are billing as the Beards vs. the Birds.

“It will be exciting to see some unfamiliar faces,” he said.

Dustin Pedroia, Mike Napoli and many of their scraggly Boston teammates figure to get a good look at the Cardinals’ crop of young arms, led by postseason ace Michael Wacha and relievers Trevor Rosenthal, Carlos Martinez and Kevin Siegrist.

trailed at any point — and ended an 86-year championship drought.

“Obviously I’m aware of the history of the two teams,” Ellsbury said. “Once the first pitch happens, all that goes out the window.”

The Red Sox are trying to win their third crown in 10 years. St. Louis is aiming to take its second

title in three years and third in eight seasons.

“Some of us have some pretty bad memories of being here in 2004, and we’re looking to kind of right that ship,” St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said.

Matheny was the Cardinals’ catcher that year, backed up by rookie Yadier Molina.

Colts officially put Wayne on injured reserve INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Reggie Wayne was the Colts’ ballast.

When he was suddenly surrounded by rookies and newcomers last season, Wayne took it upon himself to show the youngsters how things were done in the NFL. When Andrew Luck had a question about a defense or a coverage, Wayne could provide the answer. And when Luck needed someone to bail him out on the field, well, Wayne always seemed to get open.

Now the Colts need someone to fill in for Wayne.

“You can’t replace Reggie,” quarterbacks coach Clyde Christensen said Tuesday. “I’ve been here 12 years and I’ve never seen him miss a game, and I’ve rarely seen him miss a practice. But you’ve got to take it and go and we’ve got some good young guys who are ready to do that.”

Indy (5-2) made everything official Tuesday by putting Wayne on seasonending injured reserve for the first time in his 13-year career. The move ended his streak of consecutive games played at 189.

Losing the perennial Pro

Bowler is a huge blow for a team that has a two-game lead over Tennessee in the AFC South and has already beaten three of the league’s top teams — San Francisco, Seattle and Denver. And Wayne has played a huge role in Indy’s remarkably quick turnaround.

He’s seen and done it all — won a Super Bowl, two AFC titles, had four 100-catch seasons and endured the misery of a 2-14 season in 2011. Before tearing the anterior cruciate ligament late in his right knee Sunday night, on a low, underthrown ball he was coming back to catch, Wayne had moved into eight place on the NFL’s all-time receptions list (1,006) and was closing in on the top 10 in career yards receiving, too.

The 39-33 win over Denver moved Wayne into a three-way tie with John Unitas and Jeff Saturday for playing in the second-most career wins in franchise history (132). Peyton Manning holds the record at 141.

But in Indy, everyone knows Wayne’s contributions go far deeper than stats. As Wayne lay on the

ground Sunday night, fans chanted “Reg-gie! Reg-gie!” and longtime teammates and close friends such as linebacker Robert Mathis and safety Antoine Bethea gathered around.

“The thing we’re really going to miss is their communication on the field was getting really special,” receivers coach Charlie Williams said, referring to the bond between Darrius Heyward-Bey, T.Y. Hilton and Wayne.

What will the Colts do now?

There has been rampant speculation that general manager Ryan Grigson will again go shopping, and Grigson’s reputation as a dealer has played right into the rumors. Since joining the Colts in January 2012, he has made 16 trades including last month’s blockbuster to acquire running back Trent Richardson from Cleveland for a first-round pick in 2014.

Some believe he will make another move during Indy’s bye week and before next week’s trade deadline.

The most popular names being floated are Kenny Britt, Josh Gordon and Hakeem Nicks, though, this time could be very different.

AP

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Reggie Wayne (87) walks off the field after injuring his knee during the second half of an NFL football game against the Denver Broncos in Indianapolis. One day after coach Chuck Pagano confirmed that the Colts receiver had a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, the Colts put their top receiver on season-ending injured reserve.

It’s unlikely the Titans would send the talented but struggling Britt to a team they’re chasing for the division title and that they will face Nov. 14 and Dec. 1.

And while Grigson and Browns CEO Joe Banner

have a relationship that dates to their time together in Philadelphia, and Nicks seems to fit Grigson’s model, a young, talented player who hasn’t fulfilled all expectations, Grigson may be running out of trade

bait.

In addition to sending that first-round pick to the Browns, Indy also dealt a fourth-rounder in 2014 to Cleveland so they could take defensive tackle Montori Hughes in April.

HORNETS: Angola plays Dwenger CHARGERS: Schermerhorn tallies 11 kills, 17 digs for West Noble FROM PAGE B1

Angola won all three matches with the Bulldogs this season. But Tuesday’s sectional contest was the first that did not go the distance.

Now the Hornets will take on a Bishop Dwenger team that is around .500.

But the Saints swept East Noble in Kendallville on Oct. 14. The Hornets lost at home to EN in four games to start their season on Aug.

22.

Coach Perschke said her team has more often played better against better teams.

She hopes that happens during a long day in Fort Wayne Saturday.

“Dwenger has had a up-and-down year like we’ve had. But they play good teams we don’t play,” Perschke said. “We’ve got some things going on and we hope to bring those things on Saturday.”

Offensive woes hurting ND, Kelly SOUTH BEND (AP) — The Notre Dame offense the past four years hasn’t much resembled the squads Brian Kelly coached at Cincinnati and Central Michigan.

Not even close.

The Irish are on pace to be the worst offense Kelly has had in 10 years of coaching at the FBS-level and may have hit rock bottom in the second half Saturday against USC with the Irish unable to do anything behind backup quarterback Andrew Hendrix after starter Tommy Rees went down with a neck injury.

Even with Rees expected to play Saturday at Air Force (1-6), there are concerns about the Irish offense, which is ranked 85th in the nation in total offense at 374.3 yards a game.

That’s the worst output for the Irish in four seasons under Kelly, and markedly worse than last season when

the Irish averaged 412 yards a game, which was still only 54th in nation.

Kelly talked last spring about he hoped Notre Dame would be able to sometimes switch to the kind of no-huddle, hurry-up spread attack that Cincinnati used under him to finish fourth in the nation in scoring in 2009 at 38.6 points a game.

He talked in August about the offense needing to carry more of the burden this season after the Irish rode a dominant defense to the BCS title game. So far, though, the Irish offense hasn’t been holding up its end.

Kelly wouldn’t say Tuesday, why he hasn’t been able to have the success at Notre Dame offensively as he has elsewhere, other than again saying defense is the key to winning at Notre Dame.

against NorthWood in another. Those winners will move to Saturday’s semifinals. The title game is set for 5 p.m. on Saturday at West Noble.

Whitko ended its season with a 9-25 record.

“This was our best season since 1998,” said Whitko coach Brandy Smith. “West Noble was on their game. Obviously this isn’t how we wanted to end it.”

Rachel Schermerhorn produced 11 kills and 17 digs for the Chargers.

Kelsie Peterson dished out 17 assists and had a team-high 27 digs.

West Noble also got eight kills, 10 digs and two aces from Taylor Fisher. Kenzie Tell had six kills, while Becca Schermerhorn and Taylor Rose each finished with seven digs.

“It was fantastic,” Powell said. “We came together as a team and had a lot of enthusiasm on the floor.”

The Chargers never trailed in the opening set. The squad jumped out 4-1 at the outset with the aid of two Kaylie Warble blocks and later came through with a 6-0 run that was capped by an ace from Amanda Huntsman. Vanessa Ratliff would eventually close Game 1 with a kill as the Chargers ruled 25-15.

The Chargers started just as well in Game 2, leading 6-1 following a Peterson ace. But Whitko rallied to tie the match at 13-13 and would slip past with a 25-22 win.

West Noble put together a 6-0 run in Game 3 that put the squad up by 10, at 15-5.

“We rebounded that third set, came out with high energy,” Powell said.

Game 4 was close from start-to-finish.

A 4-0 spurt midway through was key for the Chargers, with Warble coming through with two blocks and Teel connecting on a big kill.

Up 23-19 in the late going, Rachel Schermerhorn followed with a kill and then a Whitko kill sailed into the net for a 25-19 verdict to close the match.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Police: Someone saw E. Mich victim, didn’t call YPSILANTI, Mich. (AP) — At least one person saw the mortally wounded Eastern Michigan University football player Demarius Reed lying in an apartment building stairwell but thought he’d just passed out from a party, Ypsilanti’s interim police chief told a community meeting Tuesday.

Tony DeGiusti also said that at least six people heard gunshots and others saw a fight in a parking lot.

But no one called police, not even the person who reports walking by Reed’s body, the chief said.

Police are offering $5,000 for clues to the killer’s identity and say they’re looking for anyone who attended a party at the off-campus University Green apartments where he was found dead.

The 20-year-old communications major from Chicago was shot multiple times Friday in what police say may have been a robbery.

Harvin set to return RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Percy Harvin was back on the practice field for the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday.

When he finally gets into a game is still unknown.

Harvin was limited in his return to practice for the Seahawks. It was his first work with the team since undergoing hip surgery in early August. Harvin said a bone in his hip was impacting his labrum and causing pain. He said it was a “cut and dry” decision to have the surgery, but difficult to accept joining a new team.

Harvin said he wants to get back into a game as soon as he can, but wants to be smart and not return too soon.

Dolphins file complaint about obscure rule DAVIE, Fla. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins are well aware of the obscure new rule that drew a penalty on the Patriots and helped the Jets win in overtime last week.

The Dolphins complained to the NFL that a similar violation by the Ravens wasn’t called.

On Sunday, New England’s Chris Jones was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct for pushing a teammate into the Jets’ formation. The penalty negated a missed field goal try, and the Jets then made a shorter kick for the victory.

The Dolphins complained to the league that a similar violation wasn’t called in Week 5 when Caleb Sturgis missed a 57-yard kick at the end of a 26-23 loss to Baltimore. Coach Joe Philbin said he became aware of the supposed infraction watching a tape of the game.

Injured IndyCar driver released from hospital INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — IndyCar driver Justin Wilson has been released from the hospital and has returned to his home in Longmont, Colo., IndyCar officials announced Tuesday.

Wilson was injured Saturday night in the season finale at Fontana, Calif., when his car spun coming out of the second turn. It left a trail of smoke, which led to a multi-car crash. The English driver was transported and admitted to nearby Arrowhead Regional Medical Center.

IndyCar’s medical director Dr. Michael Olinger diagnosed Wilson with non-operable pelvic fractures and a bruised lung.

Wilson spent the next two nights in the hospital before his release Monday.

Lincecum resigns with Gians SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Tim Lincecum is staying put with the San Francisco Giants just as he hoped, reaching agreement Tuesday on a $35 million, two-year contract through the 2015 season.

The deal is pending a physical, which hadn’t been set. Lincecum has a full no-trade clause.

General manager Brian Sabean said when the season ended that among his top priorities was bringing back the two-time NL Cy Young Award winner, who also indicated he cherishes familiarity and wanted stay with the only club he has known. He pitched the Game 5 clincher in the 2010 World Series at Texas, then shifted to the bullpen and became a reliable reliever during the Giants’ 2012 run to their second title in three years.

Freeman set to remain Vikings starting quarterback EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings are reeling from another embarrassing performance.

Vikings coach Leslie Frazier said Tuesday that he wouldn’t change his decision to start Josh Freeman at quarterback against the New York Giants on Monday night. Freeman struggled through a 20-for-53 passing night in the 23-7 loss.

Frazier says he felt confident that Freeman had enough time to learn the offense and prepare for the job despite being with the team for just two weeks.

The coach said he thought Freeman’s throwing mistakes were mechanical, not mental.

Frazier also said Freeman will still be the starter this week, when the Vikings host the Green Bay Packers.

Safe Haven info can save lives ach of us can do something to help raise awareness about Indiana’s Safe Haven Law, which allows any responsible person to give up custody of a baby less than 30 days old in any hospital emergency room, fire station or police station in the state.

DeKalb County’s efforts to increase awareness of the Safe Haven Law were prompted by the tragic finding of a baby in a Dumpster in 2009. Fortunately, the baby survived. To prevent anything similar in the future, people from all walks of life can help with getting information out about the Safe Haven Law that provides safe places to relinquish a newborn baby. Adopted in 2000 and revised in 2013, the law states: • A distressed parent to give up an unwanted infant safely, legally and confidentially without fear of arrest or prosecution.

• A parent, family member, friend, minister or priest, social worker or any responsible adult may give up custody of a baby less than 30 days old to a hospital emergency room, fire station or police station in Indiana.

• As long as there are no signs of intentional abuse on the baby, no information is required of the person leaving the baby. Any knowledge of the date of birth, race, parent medical history, child’s health or anything that would be useful to the child’s caregiver would be greatly appreciated.

• Once the baby is examined and given medical treatment (if needed), the child will be placed into the custody of the Indiana Division of Family and Social Services Administration, which places the infant in a foster or pre-adoptive home.

Most adults can help in getting the word out in one way or another. Opportunities for sharing the information will come up in conversation, training events, seminars, etc.

DeKalb Health has a staff person to provide training on the law. Contact Cheryl Clark at 920-2518 or cclark@dekalbhealth.com for more information. The Community Foundation of DeKalb County and the United Way of DeKalb County have posters and information cards for distribution.

What Others Say • OK, so start the negotiations in Congress already A day after extracting a deal to reopen the federal government after a two-week standoff, a headline declared: “Democrats’ next goal: Immigration reform.”

Who are they kidding here?

Don’t get us wrong, a rational discussion and movement on immigration issues are overdue. But if straight questions about budgeting, the expense of health care reform and a mounting debt can’t be settled before furloughing huge chunks of the federal workforce, how can Democrats in the Senate believe immigration reform is within reach?

The government’s open — and largely on the president’s terms. He has the upper hand, if only barely. It would make sense to start the negotiations he said would happen on the budget and the debt.

Why wait until Christmastime and New Year’s to get working under the gun on something that sent the federal government to the brink on Oct. 1? Or maybe we already know the answer to that: No one in Washington, D.C., believes negotiation done without a cliff on the horizon is a realistic goal.

Northwest Ordinance shaped Hoosier values ndiana became a state in 1816. Its political values, moral compass and physical boundaries were shaped by the Northwest Ordinance of 1787.

The ordinance spelled out how new states would be added to the Union and the rights that would be guaranteed to citizens.

John J. Patrick, professor emeritus of education at Indiana University, calls the ordinance “a brilliant policy for governing a vast area north and west of the Ohio River — a liberal and innovative plan for colonial administration and national developANDREA ment.”

The document “is NEAL indisputably at the core of the American civic heritage, one of the most important political legacies we have,” Patrick said.

When the United States won the American Revolution, the 13 original states gained massive new lands stretching west to the Mississippi River and north to the Great Lakes. The Northwest Ordinance was one of several laws passed by the national Congress governing land division and westward migration.

It dealt specifically with the Old Northwest

I

•

— the Midwest today — out of which “not less than three nor more than five States” were to be carved. The result? Ohio (1803), Indiana (1816), Illinois (1818), Michigan (1837) and Wisconsin (1848).

The ordinance set forth a process by which territories would elect legislatures, write constitutions and apply to the national government for statehood. It guaranteed new states would enter the union “on an equal footing with the original states” and specified their probable geographic borders.

The Ohio River became Indiana’s southern boundary. The northern perimeter was a moving target for decades. After Ohio was admitted to the Union in 1803 and the Michigan Territory created in 1805, the boundary line was set at the southern tip of Lake Michigan. In 1816, the line was shifted 10 miles further north so Indiana could claim a bit of lakeshore.

The governance procedures set forth in the ordinance were as far-sighted as its commitment to individual dignity. Consider these enlightened promises: Freedom of religion: “No person … shall ever be molested on account of his mode of worship or religious sentiments.”

Education: “Religion, morality, and knowledge, being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall forever be encouraged.”

Respect of Native Americans: “The utmost good faith shall always be observed

towards the Indians … in their property, rights, and liberty, they shall never be invaded or disturbed.”

Sad to say, the promises were not always kept. Throughout the Northwest Territory, federal treaties stripped Native Americans of their homeland, and slavery existed despite the written ban. The 1800 federal census recorded 135 slaves in the Indiana Territory and 163 free blacks. Regular funding for public schools did not occur until after the mid 19th century.

Patrick laments that the typical high-school textbook contains less than a page on the Northwest Ordinance, calling it a seminal document in American history.

Many of its principles made their way into the Indiana Constitution of 1816.

Though the ordinance was superseded by other laws, Hoosiers can take pride in its formative influence.

This is one in a series of essays leading up to the celebration of the Indiana Bicentennial in December 2016. The essays will focus on the top 100 events, ideas and historical figures of Indiana, beginning with the impact of the Ice Age and ending with the legacy of the Bicentennial itself.

Josh Tew sits on the lower deck of Busch Stadium in St. Louis during the Cubs vs. Cardinals baseball game on Sept. 27. The Cubs eventually lost 7-0, allowing the Cardinals to clinch the National League Central Division.

the day before Josh’s elementary school held a day for students to dress in the garb of their favorite sports team. Josh went to school dressed head to toe in Cubbie blue.

So when a college visit for my now-high school senior took us to southern Illinois on Sept. 27, Josh asked if we could take a little detour afterward to St. Louis to watch the Cubs play there.

We had no idea at the time we ordered the tickets that the Cardinals, longtime bitter rivals of the Cubs, might clinch the division that night, but as the day arrived, with the Cubs already long out of postseason contention, it turned out that either a Pirates loss or a Cardinals win would seal the deal.

The Pirates did their part to stave off disaster by winning, but

the Cubs couldn’t hold up their end of the bargain. We arrived from the college visit just as the game started, and I left our seats in the bottom of the first inning to grab some dinner from the concession stands. By the time I returned, Chicago was down 3-0 and Chicago starter Travis Wood had been chased from the game.

Another Cubs collapse ensued, and Josh was once again left to wait for that elusive time when hope blooms again in the heart of Cubs fans: Next year.

JAMES TEW thought the Tigers

pulled off a Cubs-worthy collapse against the Red Sox and hopes the Cubbies really do win it all some day. He can be reached by email at jtew@ kpcmedia.com.

Briefs • Groom sentenced to one year for fake bomb threat LONDON (AP) — A forgetful British bridegroom who made a hoax bomb threat rather than admit he’d neglected to book the venue for his wedding was sentenced Tuesday to a year in jail.

Neil McArdle called Liverpool’s St. George’s Hall from a phone booth on his scheduled wedding day in April, claiming a bomb was due to go off in 45 minutes.

His fiancee, Amy Williams, was left standing in the street in her wedding gown while the building was evacuated.

McArdle, 36, was arrested the same day and admitted that he made the call because he had forgotten to fill out the paperwork for the wedding.

“He did say several times how embarrassed and ashamed he was and how sorry he was,” said prosecutor Derek Jones.

A judge at Liverpool Crown Court in northwest England sentenced McArdle to 12 months in jail.

Judge Norman Wright said that McArdle had frightened staff at the venue with his hoax —which came days after the Boston marathon bombings — and let down his fiancee.

“She was getting ready, expecting you were going to be man and wife and a very solemn public event in her life and you knew that was not going to take place,” the judge said.

Israel forces kill Palestinian bomber JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel’s security service and the military say Israeli forces have killed a Palestinian man in the West Bank believed responsible for a Tel Aviv bus bombing last year.

The Shin Bet says security forces sought to detain the suspect near the Palestinian village of Bilin on Tuesday.

It says the suspect took cover in a cave, from where he later fired at Israeli forces, prompting the troops to kill him. The security service says two of his accomplices were arrested.

The Shin Bet identified the suspect as Mohamed Aatzi, an Islamic Jihad militant behind last year’s bus bombing of Tel Aviv during Israel’s military offensive on the Gaza Strip.

The explosion wounded Israeli passengers.

People • Marriage next for West, Kardashian NEW YORK (AP) — Marriage is coming after the baby carriage for Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.

Kardashian’s publicist, Ina Treciokas, confirmed Tuesday that the couple are engaged.

E! News first reported that West proposed to West Kardashian Monday — her 33rd birthday — in front of family and friends at the AT&T Park, home of the San Francisco Giants.

Kardashian gave birth to the couple’s first child, daughter North West, in June.

A photo posted on Instagram shows a screen at the stadium that reads “PLEEEASE MARRY MEEE!!!” — in typical West font — above a black-clad orchestra.

Another shows Kardashian showing off a diamond ring with a smiling West behind her.

The Kardashian clan has a series of reality shows on E!, but the network said Tuesday it did not have cameras at the stadium to capture the moment.

‘Beautiful China’ getting harder to see BEIJING (AP) — Forget all the headlines about eye-watering pollution in Beijing and Shanghai — the Middle Kingdom’s latest tourism slogan invites visitors to “Beautiful China.”

Adorning buses and trains in cities such as London, the international marketing effort has been derided as particularly inept at a time when recordbusting smog has drawn attention to the environmental and health costs of China’s unfettered industrialization.

Like this year’s typically clunky theme for visitors “China Ocean Tourism Year,” the slogan highlights the tin ear of an industry that has ridden the coattails of China’s rapid economic growth and increased global prominence but failed to keep up with international travel trends.

“Beauty can be looked at in many different ways, but when you have all the stories about the pollution, and the air pollution in particular, people are not going to buy the fact that China is 100 percent beautiful,” said Alastair Morrison, a Beijing-based expert in tourism destination marketing and development.

China’s tourism industry has grown at a fast pace since the country began free market-style economic reforms three decades ago.

In 2011, travel and tourism generated $644 billion, or more than 9 percent of China’s GDP, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council, mostly propelled by its huge domestic market of 1.1 billion people.

China is also the world’s third most visited country after France and the U.S. Despite that status, the numbers are less significant economically than domestic tourism. On top of that, the growth in foreign tourists has lagged world averages.

According to the World Tourism Organization, whose data is based on national sources, the average growth rate in overnight visitors worldwide was 2.8 percent from 2008 to 2012.

The average growth rate in China was 2.1 percent.

And in the first nine months of this year, a period during which China’s image as a destination has been tainted by worsening air pollution and unprecedented coverage of it, foreign overnight visitors dropped 7 percent to 15 million people.

Tourists look at the Forbidden City from the top of Jinshan hill on a hazy day in Beijing, China. China’s tourism industry has grown at a fast pace since the country began free market-style economic reforms three decades ago.

However, its latest tourism slogan

“For a destination like China, which is a large country that many foreigners have not been to, and with the interest in China, you would expect above average growth rates,” said Morrison. “You have to question what’s going on.”

“Beautiful China” has been derided as particularly inept at a time when recordbusting smog has drawn attention to the environmental and health costs of China’s unfettered industrialization. Some point to unsophisticated marketing as an explanation.

Some point to unsophisticated marketing as an explanation.

Whereas tourism offices all over the world use Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, Chinese tourism authorities stick with what they know: trade shows and magazine advertising.

They are fond of using wordy theme years to promote China, having used one annually since its “Friendly Sightseeing Year” of 1992. The busy looking website of the national tourism body has been likened to a company newsletter.

Almanac •

DEAR DOCTOR K: This isn’t a medical question — I’m just curious. How do we see?

DEAR READER: It all begins with light. Light from the sun, moon, fire or (in the past century or two) from electric lights bounces off an object and enters our eyes.

The eye is like a camera.

It has a lens that continuously focuses to sharpen the picture. Then the eye sends the picture to the brain, which processes the picture and does the seeing.

Let’s start with some eye anatomy. The eye’s surface is made up of the sclera (the white part of the eye that protects its interior) and the cornea. The cornea is a clear, dome-like window at the front of the eye that helps focus light.

The middle layer contains the iris. The black hole in the center of the iris is the

lifestyle.

If you’re not aware, a resource, The Society for the Second Self (Tri-Ess International), offers DEAR support for ABBY heterosexual crossdressers as well as their spouses, Jeanne Phillips partners and families. It has been in my column before and is the oldest and largest support organization for cross-dressers and those who love them. You can learn more about it at tri-ess.org.

— through your brain to the very back part of it, called the occipital lobe. When those electrical signals reach the back of the brain, the brain interprets the image — the size, shape, color and distance of your car. Other parts of the brain also are involved in interpreting the images from your eyes.

We understand what parts of the eye and brain are involved in seeing.

But we only understand dimly how it really works.

How does your brain know where a tennis ball speeding toward you will be one second from now so that you can position your racquet to hit it?

The answer to that and similar questions remains a marvelous mystery.

Civilians victims of drone strikes Older Americans find jobs scarce ISLAMABAD (AP) — Amnesty International called on the U.S. to investigate reports of civilians killed and wounded by CIA drone strikes in Pakistan in a report released Tuesday that provided new details about the alleged victims of the attacks, including a 68-year-old grandmother hit while farming with her grandchildren.

Mamana Bibi’s grandchildren told the London-based rights group that she was killed by missile fire on Oct. 24, 2012, as she was collecting vegetables in a family field in the North Waziristan tribal area, a major militant sanctuary near the Afghan border. Three of Bibi’s grandchildren were wounded in the strike, as were several others who were nearby, the victims said.

The U.S. considers its drone program to be a key weapon against insurgent groups that it says stages cross-border forays into neighboring Afghanistan.

But the belief, widespread in Pakistan, that the strikes kill large numbers of civilians sparks resentment and complicates the two countries’ ability to coordinate efforts against militants based in the country, including al-Qaida.

An even deadlier incident noted by the report — titled “‘Will I be next?’ U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan”— occurred in North Waziristan on July 6, 2012.

Witnesses said a volley of missiles hit a tent where a group of men had gathered for an evening meal after work, and then a second struck those who came to help the wounded, one of a number of attacks that have hit rescuers, the rights group said.

Witnesses and relatives said that total of 18 male laborers with no links to militant groups died, according to Amnesty.

Pakistani intelligence officials at the time identified the dead as suspected militants.

The U.S. did not respond to request for comment on the strike. President Barack Obama said during a speech in May that the U.S. does not conduct a drone strike unless there is “near-cer-

the company.

People of all ages have been frustrated by the job market and the unemployment rate for those 55 and older was 5.3 percent in September, lower than the 7.2 percent rate among all ages. By comparison, unemployment among those 20-24 was 12.9 percent, and among those 25-54, 6.2 percent.

But long-term unemployment has been rampant among the oldest job seekers. Unemployed people aged 45 to 54 were out of work 45 weeks on average, those 55 to 64 were jobless for 57 weeks and those 65 and older average 51 weeks.

Younger workers were unemployed for shorter periods of time.

Sixty-three percent of those who searched for a job cited financial need and 19 percent said it was because they were laid off. Far smaller numbers searched because they wanted to change careers, find a better salary or benefits, escape unhappiness at a prior job or simply get out of the house.

Lynch, of San Gabriel, Calif., hated taking a step down after the earlier layoffs, but this time only one interview has come from 70-some applications.

“It’s starting at the bottom,” she said. “And frankly, I’m getting too old to be starting at the bottom.”

Bob Gershberg, a corporate recruiter in St. Petersburg, Fla., said unemployed people, regardless of age, have had trouble getting rehired. But he said older workers have faced an added layer of skepticism from employers.

“They’ll say, ‘Give me the young guy. Give me the up-and-comer. Someone with fire in the belly,” he said.

“But there’s always been a bias against the unemployed.

They say, ‘If she was so good, why’d she get cut?’”

Sharon Hulce, who runs a recruitment firm in Appleton, Wis., said she’s found some employers are concerned that applicants in their late 50s or 60s may not stick around for the long haul.

ROCKFORD, Ill. (AP) — When Charlie Worboys lost his job, he feared searching for a new one at his age might be tough. Six years later, at 65, he’s still looking.

Luanne Lynch, 57, was laid off three times in the past decade and previous layoffs brought jobs with a lower salary; this time she can’t even get that.

They’re not alone. A new Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll finds many people over 50 reporting great difficulty finding work AP and feeling that their age is a factor.
