member of student government,sang in the Show Choir, andplayed tennis under Coach DebRetman for the Indians. “I wentto a LeadershipWorkshop spon-sored by the Ohio Energy Proj-ect,” she said. “I talked withMike Nygren who helped meput my life goals in focus.”

She knew she wanted to helppeople and make a difference. “Ithought about a career in law orpolitics,” she said. “But Mikesuggested I look at those I mostadmired, and I realized thatwould be my teachers. He alsothought Mount VernonNazarene would be a good col-lege for me.” After high school,Magoteaux entered the MiddleChildhood Education programat Mount Vernon. She concen-trated on math and social stud-ies and earned her bachelor’sdegree in 2004. Currently,she is working on a mas-ter’s degree from MiamiUniversity.

“I chose Mount Vernonbecause it was a small,very friendly campus,”she said. “In a strange co-incidence, when I told mymother that someone sug-gested Mount Vernon, shesaid that one of herfriends had just men-tioned Mount Vernon. Itwas meant to be.” WhileMt. Vernon was the per-fect fit for Sarah Jane,she did spent her fallweekends watching Uni-versity of Dayton footballsince her fiance Kyleplayed linebacker for theFlyers.

After college, she washired by Piqua CitySchools to teach 5th

grade math at Washington.“This is my chance to give backto the community and theschools,” she said. “Piqua gaveso much to me, and now I canreturn that good.”

In the classroom, the alwaysenergetic Magoteaux uses a va-riety of assignments and proj-ects to bring math alive to herstudents. “I remember when Ihad a hard time with math, so Iunderstand what some of mystudents are going through,”she said. “I use some of their in-terests to make math relevant.”

Right now, Magoteaux isworking to create the 2nd An-nual STEM (science, technology,engineering, and mathematics)Academy at Washington in apartnership with Ohio North-ern University. “My father is theassistant dean of engineering atONU,” she said. “Their students

visitWashington and work withour students on special proj-ects.” Her students are eagerlylooking forward to designingand building a Mars Rover fromLegos, and new this year, thesixth-graders will work on amotorized propeller.

Other engaging projects in-clude math songs and mathraps are shared by the 6thgraders to teach math conceptsto the 5th graders. “My studentsreally get into this,” Magoteauxsaid. “It’s a big deal for thesixth-graders to go back downto fifth grade and help thosekids.”

Harry Potter serves as abackdrop for assignments andrewards. “My classes are di-vided up into different housesjust like Hogwarts,” Magoteauxsaid. “The houses can gain orlose points, and the winning

house at the end of each quar-ter has a celebration.” An inter-esting spinoff of this activity ishow many students havestarted reading the Harry Pot-ter series. “I think it is very spe-cial that students are readingHarry Potter books because ofmath class,” she said.

At home, the ever activeMagoteaux enjoys swimming,golfing, walking on the bikepaths, and Zumba classes. Sheand her husband Kyle, an engi-neer for Hartzell Propeller, havebeen married seven years. “Wewere high school sweetheartssince 9/9/99,” she said. Theyhave a son and a daughter.Libby Jane is three years old,and Si is seven months. Thefamily lives in Piqua just a fewblocks from where Sarah Janegrew up.

“Right now, we are being verycautious and I think parents andthe community recognize that,”Rappold said.“It's a team effort.”

Rappold said the 3.5-mill re-newal tax levy canonlybeused forgeneral operating expenses, in-cluding teachers, books, educa-tional supplies,transportation,andstudent support programs.

Since theapprovalof theearnedincome tax the district reinstatedhigh school busing and reducedthe district's transportation andparticipation fees from$110to$55per activity.

Thedistrict also has a classifiedand certified staff wage freeze ineffect until 2015.

Rappold said the district hasbeen pro-active in its quests forgrants to offset operating ex-penses.

“Our teachers and staff havebeen very resourceful in findinggrants,” he said. "The staff hasdone a nice job and were able toput some field trips back becausethey’ve wrote grants. Everybodydoes a nice job of sharing whenthey get a grant. They’ll say ‘Hey,do youwant to look this over!’ andwork together.”

Rappold said despite cuts andstaff reductions, including an em-ployeebuyoutpackage,thedistrictcontinues to thrive with four con-secutive “Excellent with Distinc-tion” ratings from the OhioDepartment of Education’s statereport cards.

Rappoldsaidheappreciated thesupport the Miami East commu-nity has provided to the district.

“The staff has just done a phe-nomenal job and our communitysupports us and each day I see aparent volunteer in the buildinghelping us out,”Rappold said.

NewspaperKnowledge

Who was Christopher Columbus?Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa,

Italy, in 1451.He was born into what most wouldconsider a middle class family.But like most chil-dren of the era, he was expected to beginpreparing for a career at an early age. In hislater writings, Columbus claimed he first went tosea at the age of 10.

In 1470, following a shipwreck off the coastof Portugal, Columbus took up residence in thatcountry. From there, he continued to sail, follow-ing established routes and making voyages asfar as Iceland. But Columbus wanted to domore. Columbus wanted to find a shorter routeto the lands described by Marco Polo some 200years before – China, Japan, India, and the EastIndies. What's more, Columbus believed thesecret to finding a shorter route lay in sailingwest.

With plans in hand, Columbus approachedKing John II of Portugal in 1485. He asked forthree sturdy ships and enough money to fund ayear's voyage of discovery. King John II referredthe matter to his advisers. The advisersreviewed Columbus's plans. Columbus believedhe could reach land in just five weeks, but theking's advisers thought the proposed voyagewould take much longer. Ultimately, the adviserssaid the voyage would be a poor investment,and the king rejected Columbus's request.

Columbus appealed to the court again threeyears later. By that time, though, BartholomewDiaz had successfully sailed around the tip ofAfrica, and Portugal had lost all interest in west-ern exploration.

So Columbus took his plans on to KingFerdinand II and Queen Isabella I of Spain.Again, plans were referred to committee. Again,the committee believed Columbus had grosslyunderestimated the length of such a journey,and funding was refused. But the king andqueen of Spain did not want Columbus to takehis proposal elsewhere, so they provided himwith an annual salary.They also issued a decree

stating that he was to be given free food andlodging throughout the country.

Still, Columbus wanted more. He found pri-vate investors to underwrite roughly half theanticipated cost of his expedition and kept ask-ing the crown for the rest of the money – alongwith certain other provisions. If Columbus dis-covered new land, he was to be named "Admiralof the Ocean Sea." He was to be appointed gov-ernor of any newly-found lands. He alsorequested 10 percent of all revenues producedthrough new lands. At last, Columbus succeed-ed in persuading Ferdinand to underwrite theventure, and on Aug. 3, 1492, Columbus set sailwith 90 crewmen and three ships, the Nina, the

Pinta and the Santa Maria. It was a dangerousvoyage.No one had ever attempted to sail so faror so long without seeing land.

After two months at sea, many ofColumbus's crew wanted to turn back.They hadalready traveled much longer than originallyplanned, with no land in sight. Columbus insist-ed, however, that they press on. And on Oct. 12,1492, land was spotted -- land Columbus wouldcall "San Salvador." Columbus believed he hadreached an island off the coast of the EastIndies and dubbed the native inhabitants"Indians" as a result. Columbus was wrong. Hehad, in fact, stumbled onto the Americas.

My first Social Security check arrived last week.Coming along with it were, I must admit, somefeelings of sadness at how fast the decades seem

to have passed by coupled with that sense of lost youth.However, I experienced a good deal of joy knowing I amstill alive, in good health, and still married tomy first wife.Happily, I might add.

But another thought crossed my mind. I am now re-ceiving a government entitlement so does this make me amember of Mitt Romney’s 47 percent? You’ve heard abouthis speech haven’t you, secretly recorded before afundraiser for very deep-pocketed supporters? He saidthat 47 percent ofAmericans pay no taxes, are victims, feelentitled and dependent on government to provide forthem, and take no personal responsibility for their plight.Romney also said that “his job was not to worry aboutthose people,” implying his job must be to worry insteadabout the folks in his audience who paid $50,000 per plateto hear him write off about half of the American popula-tion.More telling than his words was how he actually saidthem.The Ghostbusters couldn’t have felt more slimed.

Using Romney’s logic (paying no federal taxes = de-pendency on government) one might argue that the 66percent of American businesses and industries that payno federal income taxes are also dependent or that the sev-eral thousand millionaires who pay no federal taxes aredependent as well.They surely are dependent on the gov-ernment tax codes that allow them to dodge paying theirfair percentage with the assistance of wealth managers,tax lawyers, and offshorebank accounts.

But back to entitlements.Have you ever noticed howthe word rolls slowly off thetongues of Republicans in anegative way? With theirdiscourse over the years onthe topic, they have man-aged to make the word feeldirty, insinuating as if thosereceiving entitlements likeSocial Security andMedicare are freeloaderstaking down the country.One has to wonder if Paul Ryan could be considered sucha freeloader since as a young boy he and his family re-ceived Social Security death benefits after his father died.But that’s another issue.

Entitlement is defined as “the right to something.” Bylaw American workers (and their employers) must payinto Social Security and Medicare earning them the rightto receive benefits according to various formulas and cir-cumstances. They are not given anything.

Both of these successful social programs have beenunder Republican attack since themoment they were con-ceived. Chicken Little pundits are again squawking aboutthe need for changing them, wrongfully claiming for ex-ample that Social Security will go bankrupt in about 20years. It won’t. Even if no changes are made whatsoever,the program will still pay 70 percent of the benefitsearned. But it won’t disappear. In fact, simply removingthe earnings cap just about saves the whole program as itstands now well into the future.

In the presidential debate last week,Republican candi-date Mitt Romney seemed to promise there would be nochanges to either program for those already or close to re-tiring. He didn’t define “close to retiring” so I couldn’t helpbut wonder if he had his fingers crossed behind his back.Change can come at anytime.

Take for examplemy SS benefit of $222/month. I shouldbe getting, by formula, three times that amount due to allthe contributions my employers and I made in the pastworking SS covered jobs. But public employees like my-self experienced a rules change in the early 1980s. It wasthe Reagan era and he was scrambling tomake endsmeetdue to his huge tax cuts and massive defense increases.This necessitated his borrowing at home and abroad topay for them, which turned America from being theworld’s biggest creditor nation into the biggest debtor na-tion… in less than eight years. Public retirement systems,many exempt from Social Security such as Ohio’s, had bil-lions of dollars of reserves and the Republicans came afterit all. Hoping to absorb all those billions into the pot, theypushed hard to end the public systems.

A pitched battle ensued with the public pension sys-tems being saved, but only at the cost of adopting theWindfall Elimination Provision (WEP), which meant inthe future, public retirees qualifying for Social Securitywould only be entitled to collect a portion of their earnedbenefit. So for example, a young married school employeedecides to work a second full time job at a local big boxstore so his wife can be a full time stay-at-home mom.This also keeps them from becoming one of Romney’sdastardly 47 percenters. Then at retirement, he getswhacked with the WEP resulting in a reduced SS bene-fit. In effect, he and other public workers are now pro-viding a subsidy.

The benefits are earned. Contributions are made intothe system.Workers are entitled.But in a flash,much canquickly disappear with the stroke of a pen.

As I close to go enjoy my “windfall,” remember this …when Republicans start singing their siren song aboutchanging “entitlements” for the better, I’d suggest keepinga close eye on where their hands and fingers are.

To the Editor:As a still undecided

voter for the coming elec-tion, a teacher of speechcommunications (retiredafter more than 50 yearsin the profession), and aformer actor on stage andtelevision, I want to pointout a few of the rhetoricalreasons Gov.Mitt Romneywon the debate (Wednes-day, Oct. 3) by an over-whelming margin.

Governor Romney’sposture and facial expres-sion showed solid confi-dence, in both hisknowledge of the subjectsand management of thelanguage to express them.He stood tall and had apositive alert mannerthroughout. At no pointdid he seem confused orhesitant in expressinghimself. When PresidentObama was speaking,Romney maintained alook of strong, interestedfocus on him, including di-rect eye contact.

By contrast, when lis-tening to Governor Rom-ney’s statements,President Obama lookeddown at his notes as if hewere trying to find hisplace, and had a kind ofsheepish grin, which gavehim the look of an embar-rassed boy being beratedby the school principal.When he responded toRomney, his counter argu-ments often seemed tameand weakly formed. Oneexample was his repeatedreference to his grand-mother’s struggles, as arhetorical device for solic-iting sympathy for hispoints.

The lectern placementswere disadvantages toObama. Their relative po-sitions and the persistentcamera angle combined tocreate a picture of Rom-ney having center stageand Obama as some kindof interviewer who waspermitted on the scenesimply to solicit wisdomfrom the host.

The coup de grace wasGovernor Romney’s luckon the coin toss. He wonthe choice of who wouldspeak last, and wiselychose that spot for him-self. He then gave a calmand eloquent last word, atleast for the time being.

First round: no contest.Romney won it, handsdown.

As the campaign hasentered its finalmonth, President

Obama is enjoying morethan just a lead in mostpolls. He’s also enjoyingRepublican insiders slam-ming Mitt Romney forvarious faults, real andperceived, while poten-tially huge problems forthe president — the in-vestigation into whathappened at the Libyan consulate at-tack, a devastating blow suffered by U.S.forces in Afghanistan, and Obama’s lackof a plan to deal with the coming enti-tlement crisis, to name just three — golargely undiscussed in much of thepress.

As far as Libya is concerned, theWhite House story that the attack thatkilled Ambassador Chris Stevens wasentirely the result of anger over an anti-Muslim video has completely fallenapart. While the administration nowconcedes the attack was an act of ter-rorism, the public still does not know ex-actly what happened in Benghazi thatnight, nor does it know what securityprecautions, if any, the State Depart-ment took to protect U.S. intereststhere.

For the moment at least, the admin-istration is stonewalling any further in-quiries. State Department officials saythey won’t discuss the matter because itis under FBI investigation. But recentreports revealed that the FBI was noteven in Benghazi more than two weeksafter the attack. “They haven’t securedthat site, which is how journalists canwander through,” CBS News reported.

It was journalists wandering throughwho discovered a brief journal kept byStevens in which the ambassador madeit clear he faced multiple securitythreats, including from al-Qaida. Thatclearly doesn’t jibe with the president’svideo story. And then there’s the ques-tion of what Stevens told the State De-partment about the security threatsaround him. They’re all matters the de-partment won’t discuss because of theslow-starting FBI investigation.

One might think the situation, whichcould well break into a full-scale scan-dal, might be consuming the politicalpress. It’s not. For example, as questionsmounted, one could watch all of NBC’s“Meet the Press” on Sept. 23 and neverhear a word about Libya, with the ex-ception of a brief critique of Romney’sreaction to the attack.

Then there is what happened inAfghanistan. On Sept. 14, Taliban forcesattacked an allied base in Helmandprovince, killing two U.S. Marines.Human losses are always the most dis-

turbing, but the Taliban’smain target was Americanwarplanes. They managed todestroy eight Harrier jets. Ina brief article entitled, “TheU.S. Suffered Its Worst Air-power Loss Since VietnamLast Week and No One Re-ally Noticed,” the Atlantic’sJohn Hudson wrote that thelosses amounted to 7 percentof the Marine Corps’ entireHarrier fleet. The planes,

which stopped production in 1999, can’tbe replaced. Hudson quoted one militaryexpert who called the attack “arguablythe worst day in (U.S. Marine Corps)aviation history since the Tet Offensiveof 1968.”

Hudson’s piece came out the sameday Romney released his 2011 tax re-turns. Guess which got more attentionin the political world?

Then there is the entitlement crisis.Democrats have targeted the Republi-can ticket, and particularly vice presi-dential candidate Paul Ryan, over plansto reform the nation’s troubled entitle-ment system. That’s fine. But whatwould President Obama do about theproblem?

Recently, journalist Mark Halperinasked top Obama aide David Axelrodthat very question. Axelrod hemmedand hawed about a “balanced” approachto the problem, but when Halperinasked simply, “So what is (Obama’s) pro-posal?” Axelrod answered, “This is notthe time.” Axelrod suggested that ifHalperin were to win election to the U.S.Senate, then they might talk.

Libya, Afghanistan, entitlements —all are enough for days of discussionabout the president’s problems. Butmuch of the political conversation,among Republican insiders as well as innews reporting, has focused on Rom-ney’s difficulties.

Some conservative critics say Romneyhas been too vague about his economicproposals. Some say he has muzzledRyan, failing to take advantage of hisrunning mate’s impressive mastery ofthe federal budget. Some say he hasfallen short of the standard set 30 yearsago by Ronald Reagan.

There’s no doubt Romney has mademistakes in the past few weeks. Andthere’s no doubt some GOP insiders arenearing a state of panic about hischances of becoming president. Butwhat about the other guy, the guy whoactually is president? There’s a lot goingon there that Republicans, and journal-ists too, might want to talk about.

Famous hand

This extraordinaryhand was played in ateam-of-four match manyyears ago by the great Ital-ian star, Giorgio Bel-

ladonna. The bidding wentas shown, and West led thedeuce of clubs against sixdiamonds. There were many differ-

ent lines of play availableto Belladonna, includingthe one that had been cho-sen by the declarer at thefirst table, who alsoreached six diamonds andgot a club lead. At that table, declarer

ruffed East’s ace of clubs,cashed the A-K of trumps,led a trump to dummy’sjack, finessed the queen ofspades, losing to West’sking, and eventually fin-ished down one. But Belladonna, after

ruffing East’s club ace attrick one, cashed the A-K-Jof trumps and then dis-carded the ten of spadeson dummy’s king of clubs.Next he ruffed dummy’slast club, producing thisseven-card position:

Belladonna now cashedthe queen of diamonds,placing West in an unten-able position. Had he dis-

carded a spade, Bel-ladonna would havethrown a heart fromdummy and then playedthe A-Q of spades to bringhome the slam, scoringtwo tricks with dummy’s7-6 of spades. When Westelected to discard a heartinstead, Belladonnaplayed the A-K and an-other heart, establishinghis fourth heart while atthe same time forcingWest to return a spadeinto the A-Q for the slam-going trick.

SAM KIMAssociated Press

BUSAN, South Korea (AP) — Afilm based on the memoir of ademocracy activist who was tor-tured in the 1980s by South Korea’smilitary rulers is provoking discus-sion about the country’s not-so-distant authoritarian past and theinfluence it will have on this year’spresidential election.“National Security,” which pre-

mieres Saturday at the Busan In-ternational Film Festival, tells thestory of Kim Geun-tae, who en-dured 22 days of torture in a notori-ous Seoul interrogation roombecause of alleged links to NorthKorea and a plot to overthrowSouth Korea’s military regime.It is due for nationwide release in

November, just a month before thecountry votes in a presidential racebeing contested by Park Geun-hye,the daughter of military dictatorPark Chung-hee, who ruled thecountry for 18 years until his assas-sination.Park, the conservative ruling

party candidate, was considered theclear front-runner until last month,when she made comments seen assupportive of her father’s 1961 coupand failed to condemn a 1975 courtruling that led to the executions ofeight people who more than twodecades later were posthumouslycleared of subversion charges.Park later apologized for her

comments, but suspicions about herviews on South Korea’s dictatorialhistory linger.Director Chung Ji-young dared

Park to watch his film, which hasthe Korean title “Namyeongdong

1985,” saying it would help provethe genuineness of her apology andwhether she was sincere in herpromise to help heal the pain ofthose who suffered under militaryrule.Spokespeople for Park and her

party did not answer repeated callsfor comment.About 90 percent of the nearly

two-hour movie is set in an interro-gation room in Namyeongdong, aSeoul neighborhood that whenmentioned can still strike fear informer opposition figures because ofthe abuses that took place there.The film shows graphic scenes of

torture, including waterboardingand electric shocks administered byone of the regime’s infamous “tor-ture artists.” In one scene, torturerschat about dating as they keepKim’s head shoved into a tub ofwater. Another torturer smiles andwhistles as he ramps up electricshock on the screaming Kim.One of the torturers eventually

develops a loose bond with Kim andstops him from being shot, only tobe beaten up by his superior.“My film is about how torture de-

stroys both the tortured and the tor-turers,” Chung said.The movie stars Park Weon-sang

as Kim and Lee Kyeong-yeong asthe main torturer.Jeon Chan-il, a film critic and or-

ganizer of the film festival, saidthey decided to screen the movie de-spite some questioning of its timingas political. He cited its artisticquality and Chung’s reputation as atop South Korean director.“Torturers are typically consid-

ered evil, but this movie success-

fully depicts them as humans justlike us,” Jeon said. “‘National Secu-rity’ shows how both the torturersand the tortured are destroyedmentally and physically before thetyranny of the military regime.”Kim, the activist portrayed in the

film, went on to become a three-term lawmaker before he died lastyear. He once called the Namyeong-dong facility, which is now a humanrights museum, a “human slaugh-terhouse.”In 1987, a college student died

under interrogation at Namyeong-dong, an event that led to nation-wide protests that paved the wayfor democratic reforms and, finally,direct presidential elections.Kang Yong-jun, who was impris-

oned along with Kim for allegedlybeing a threat to national security,said “the torturers in Namyeong-dong felt no remorse or guilt. Theybelieved they were just going abouttheir job in their service of nationalsecurity.”Chung said his film is not solely

focused on the past, but is also acommentary on South Korea’s Na-tional Security Law, which was lib-erally used under military rule tolock away opponents and remainsin place today. The law makes it il-legal to praise, sympathize or coop-erate with North Korea.“My movie is titled ‘National Se-

curity’ in English because wrongdo-ings have been perpetrated underthe slogan of national security andstill are,” he said.“I just hope viewers will feel that

nothing like this torture shouldhappen again,” he said

KYLE MOOREColumnist

‘AmazingRace’ returnsto Covington

BY JIM DAVISCivitas [email protected]

HARVEYSBURG — Noteveryone can say they hangout with royalty, but week-ends throughout Septemberand October, Tipp City resi-dent Matthew Smith can.In character as Sir Fran-

cis Walsingham — righthand man to Queen Eliza-beth I of England — Smithis one of several actors whohelp bring 16th centuryEngland to life at the OhioRenaissance Festival inHarveysburg.Outfitted in an elaborate

period costume and armedwith a quick wit and spot-onaccent, Smith often engagesfestival patrons in playfulbanter befitting the times.It’s heady stuff, mind you,

and comes with loads of re-sponsibility, Smith saidwith a smile.“(Walsingham) was not

only the secretary of state,but he was the spymasterfor Queen Elizabeth,” Smithexplained during a recentvisit to the 30-acre perma-nent village in Harveys-burg. “He pretty much wasthe inventor of espionage aswe know it now, and he wasa very interesting characterwho invested his whole livein keeping the queen safe.He encountered many plotson her life.”Smith can be found at the

queen’s side as she strollsthe festival grounds andpresides over daily joustingcompetitions, but he hasn’talways been in such a high-ranking post. Inspired by afriend who had worked atthe festival in the early1990s, Smith said hestarted working variousjobs before catching the bugto act.“I started back in 1995

when I worked in one of thebooths. And then in 1996 Ijoined the cast for a fewyears,” he remembered. “I’veworked probably aboutevery thing you can think ofaround here. I even owned abooth for a few years, aswell. I made ends meet, butit wasn’t my true passion, soI went back to acting.”It was only fitting.Festival General Man-

ager Cheryl Bucholtz saidSmith is a perfect fit for therole of Walsingham who, inreal life, rose from quiet be-ginnings to become one ofEngland’s power brokers inthe 1500s.“Maddie has been here

for a long time … and hehas been in the role of Wals-ingham for three or fouryears,” she said. “He’s a verydynamic person and he’s notafraid to have fun on thestreets (of the festivalgrounds). Maddie is a reallygreat person and is a lot offun, and he does a phenom-enal job as Walsingham.”

While walking around in16th century attire allweekend can be tiring —the festival goes on whetherit’s 90 degrees or pouringrain — Smith said he’s in-spired to perform because itbrings him into contact withso many different people —both amongst the cast andthe patrons.“It’s the people. Ab-

solutely,” he said. “You findthe most interesting peoplehere from all walks of life.Some of the people here …you wouldn’t even knowthey have high-paying jobs.They walk around herelooking like a beggar. It’sjust so fascinating — so in-teresting and so full of life.”And that’s something

Smith said he thinks bringspeople back to the annualfestival year after year.“There’s something magi-

cal about this place. Thereare so many entertainingthings here … so many dif-ferent shows and it’s all sointeractive,” he said. “Assoon as you walk in thisdoor, you’re part of it.”Smith — and patrons

still hoping to catch the fes-tival before its eight-week-end run ends next month —can still be “part of it”through Oct. 21.For directions or more in-

formation about the OhioRenaissance Festival, visitonline atwww.renfestival.com.

eight years ago about hav-ing a meet here,” Fraziersaid. “Then, we got per-mission to use Willow-brook three years ago.”The first year, there

were just five teams in themeet, but the popularityhas continued to grow.Counting the junior highmeet, a total of 13 schoolswere involved Saturday.“This (the success of the

meet) means a lot to me,”Frazier said. “I did haveconcerns at the startwhether we would be ableto grow the meet. We havesome good competitionhere this year.”And with it being held a

week before all the confer-ence meets, Frazier set upa course that would chal-lenge the runners.“This is one of the

toughest courses they willrun,” Frazier said. “Thereare a lot of hills. They willbe tested.”Both Frazier and boys

coach Aaron Hemmert felttheir kids had a good day.“Yes,” Frazier said. “It

was muddy and it was atough course. So, I told thegirls not to worry abouttheir times. Just go outand go after runners.”Meredith Wesco led

local runners, finishingthird in the girls race in20:17, just four secondsbehind second-place fin-isher Brooke Schleben ofSeton. Miamisburg’s Jor-dan Townsley won in19:12.“I was very happy with

finishing third,” Wescosaid. “I wished I couldhave caught the girl infront of me. I wasn’t happywith my time. The plan isto get down in the 19s(under 20 minutes) beforethe end of the season. But,it was a tough course witha lot of hills. That is goodbecause our conferencemeet (Cross County Con-ference) is run on a coursewith a lot of hills.”She led Miami East to a

third-place finish behindSeton and Miamisburg.Other Miami East run-

ARCANUM — It was arainy, slightly windy coolevening but the weatherdidn’t spoil the ArcanumHomecoming festivities,which saw Katie Harmoncrowned Queen and MattAlbright dubbed King.The weather may not

have spoiled the home-coming…but the BradfordRailroaders did their partto spoil the game.The Roaders raced out

to a 46-0 advantage in thefirst half leaving Arcanumshell-shocked.Senior running back

James Canan ran for 281first-half yards and five-touchdowns to lead theway for Bradford and hewas done for the evening.Quarterback Brandon

Wysong tossed a 15-yardpass to Dallas Cassel whohauled it in for the sixthtouchdown of the half.Cassel andWysong also

hooked up for a two-pointconversion on a pass aswell.Jake Cline got in the

scoring column rushingfor four two-point conver-sions of his own to con-clude the Bradfordscoring.Despite the offensive

explosion by Bradford inthe first half…it was theplay of the defensive frontfor the Roaders that stoodout the most.Arcanum ran 26 plays

in the first half matchingthe same amount of playsBradford ran…but theRoaders were stingy ondefense.

In fact they sacked Ar-canum quarterback Dal-las Johnson four times inthe first half and only al-lowed them to cross mid-field once.“It was great perform-

ance by our defensetonight”, said Coach Cur-tis Enis. “We are fortu-nate to have a dedicateddefensive coordinator,Jason Brewer who does anoutstanding job of prepar-ing these young men eachweek. The defense did agood job of playing in con-trol and shooting the gapsto disrupt much of whatthey wanted to do.”Arcanum was able to

generate some offense inthe second half behind therunning of Mason Garberwho ran for 99 yards andParker Burhman for 100yards and dented thescoreboard twice.It was quarterback Dal-

las Johnson who got themon the scoreboard on an11-yard and a 25-yardrun.However, it was too few

points too late as Bradfordheld on for a 46-13 win toraise their record to 6-1overall and 5-1 in confer-ence. The Roaders are insole possession of 2ndplace and one game be-hind Covington in the con-ference.For the game Bradford

totaled 451 yards dou-bling the 225 yards of Ar-canum.Bradford travels to

Miami East (4-3, 4-2) nextweek.
