At the May meeting of the Board, permission was given to pursue the costs and feasibility of busing students from Argos and Culver to the Plymouth Schools. The State of Indiana allows students to attend schools outside of their own districts. The Plymouth Schools (PCSC) already has some 200 plus students who fall into that category enrolled. According to Assistant Superintendent Andy Hartley, 50 of those students come from Argos and 35 come from Culver. PCSC does not charge any tuition for out of districts students, but they are compensated per student by the State. PCSC Director of Facilities, Dave Schoof, reported the findings of his research on the matter. Schoof said it would cost $15,427 annually for the 11.8 mile trip to Argos including costs for fuel, maintenance and drivers. He said it would be approximately a 40-45 minute drive time. He went on to say that picking up children in the Culver School District would mean traveling 13.6 miles one way at a cost of $16,104 each year. He estimated the trip would take 55 minutes. Schoof said that adding the additional routes would mean using two of the eight spare buses in the corporation’s fleet. He went on to say that they have recruited five new drivers for the upcoming year. Board member Larry Pinkerton shared his thoughts on the matter saying, “The state has put us in a position to keep enrollment up and get new students.” He said schools are using marketing such as TV and billboards to attract new students. Speaking from the audience was Judy Delp. Delp handed out copies of information compiled by the state on enrollments. According to the handouts, Plymouth Schools had 3,766 students enrolled for the 2014-2015 school year, Argos had 611 for the same period, and Culver had 860. According to Delp, the numbers reflect a loss of 9 percent or 64 students from Argos, 20 percent or 215 students from Culver, and a gain by the Plymouth Schools of 6 percent or 229 students See Bussing, page A2 PILOT PHOTO/ RACHAEL HERBERT-VARCHETTO Gone to the dogs Nancy Cox of the Marshall County Human Society, center, accepts a check from the students at Riverside Intermediate for the sale of their group project built doghouse on June 2. The doghouse was built over the course of five months by eight students, pictured here, and supervised by their three teachers, Jeff Hunter, Tim Schmidt, and Trenton Porter. The students approached the teachers, wanting to work on a community project that would be of benefit to someone. With a grant from the state to help in acquiring building supplies from Lowe’s, the boys worked several times a week after school to learn teamwork, carpentry skills, leadership abilities, and make new friends to provide a great home for one lucky pooch. The doghouse was purchased by an anonymous bidder from Fulton County at $375. “The money will go to vaccinating kittens and puppies that come into the shelter,” said Cox of the donation. She was thrilled and proud of the boys for what they accomplished, and thankful for the generous donation. Marshall County Running Club Dance Academy at Lifeplex offers dance camp By Rachael Herbert-Varchetto Staff Writer PLYMOUTH — It’s the opportunity to get little feet moving and ready to twirl, tumble, and dance. Coming on June 15, the Lifeplex Dance Academy will hold a four day dance camp for ages five to 10 years old. “It’s a sneak peak of some of our fall session offerings,” said Director of the academy, Mewsette Cartwright. The class, lasting until June 18, will feature three programs of dance style: Acro-dance, Mommy and Me Ballet (Daddy too), and a tumbling, cheer, hip-hop fusion. Acro-dance is a blending of the slow version of gymnastics or mat work choreographed to modern day and classic music. The ballet aspect gives parents an opportunity to be hands on and involved with their child’s dance education. “It’s optional, but parents are welcome to participate. It helps so the parent can actually understand what’s involved in learning to be a new dancer and can support their child’s desire to learn how to dance,” said Cartwright. “We’ve PILOT PHOTO/ RACHAEL HERBERT-VARCHETTO found that when parents are involved in the process, the Nick Anders, Michael Stauffer, Joseph Stauffer, Meg Robinson, Cassidy Riddle, and Chloe Holsopple all take a turn child is more successful and feels more confident.

Prediction runs will take place on Thursdays and cost $1 to participate in. “So you show up and say, I’m gonna run one mile today and I’ll do it in eight minutes. Then we time you. Whoever the closest is to what they predicted and what they actually ran, wins, and they get a prize. We do a one, a three, and a five mile run,” said Riddle. The running club asks that folks come for 10 events to track their progress. Once hitting their goal, Riddle explained that there will be an award for those who make it to their final mile. The idea for the program came after Riddle began speaking with teachers and coaches from one of the schools to discuss getting kids moving in the summer. Schedules for some of the Plymouth coaches, and possibly other schools teachers, are posted on the site for kids to go and run with someone they know. Track meets are scheduled June 25 and July 23. Riddle is working to bring in guest speakers to talk to the runners, including someone from Lake Max Life, as part of the clubs activities. “It’s to have fun while staying fit. If you’re out running by yourself, it gets boring. I like to have people to talk to,” he said. For those worried about finding a partner, Riddle encourages everyone to come join the free group, as there is going to be someone with similar skills and abilities looking for someone to run with as well. “You get better if you run with other people. People that don’t have someone to run with, then come here and maybe you can find someone,” encouraged Riddle. The nonprofit also plans to raise money for local organizations and groups with its runs. Coming up will be a fundraiser race for the 4-H Beef Department on June 26 at 7 p.m. For more information, visit MCRCrunning.com. Local Sharon L.

Online condolences may be expressed at www.zimmermanbrosfh.com Indiana Supreme Court consider case on police searches INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indiana Supreme Court has decided to consider a case that deals with police searches. The high court on Monday announced it would hear written and oral arguments in a case that weighs whether a police officer can legally open a pill container found in the pocket of a person who’s under arrest. The Indiana Court of Appeals ruled in February that Indianapolis police violated the state constitutional rights of Antonio Garcia when an officer opened a container in his pocket, The (Munster) Times (http://bit.ly/1FrXvsz ) reported. The officer found half of a narcotic pain relief pill that ultimately was used as evidence to convict Garcia for possession of a controlled substance. Garcia was stopped by police in August 2012 for driving without headlights at dusk and failing to signal a lane change. He ultimately was arrested for driving without a license. An officer found a small metallic cylinder in Garcia’s pants pocket during a pat-down. The officer opened the container and recognized the pill inside as a narcotic pain reliever. Garcia was charged because he wasn’t immediately able to provide a prescription. But he testified at trial that he found the pill container earlier that day while cleaning out his late aunt’s bedroom and stuck it in his pocket so his 9-year-old son wouldn’t accidentally find it. He later provided a pharmacy record showing his late aunt had a prescription for the pain reliever. Although the appeals court said that police are empowered under the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution to open and search items like a pill container following an arrest, it also noted that the Indiana Constitution provides protections from police searches that are more extensive than the Fourth Amendment, and requires the state to show any police intrusion into private property is reasonable. In overturning Garcia’s conviction, the Court of Appeals ruled there was no evidence that the container found in Garcia’s pocket threatened police officer safety or held illegal substances. However, that decision is negated by the Indiana Supreme Court’s decision to review the case. The high court likely will issue its verdict sometime next year. Pilot News • Wednesday, June 3, 2015 Marshall County Tourism extends hours By Jennifer Brittin Staff Writer MARSHALL COUNTY— Lifelong residents and visitors alike can get to know the Marshall County area better by stopping in for a visit at the Marshall County Tourism Office. In order to better serve the community and its visitors, Marshall County Tourism is adding Saturday hours from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. for the summer. These hours will begin this Saturday, June 6 and continue through Saturday, August 29, 2015. There’s always a lot going on in the summer, from the local farmer’s markets in towns across Marshall County to stock car races at the Plymouth Speedway and street fairs and festivals throughout Northern Indiana. Learn about new places to explore and attractions in the area that many may not even know exist. The staff is always available to assist and answer questions and a variety of brochures and resources are available to help plan a weekend getaway or short day trip. Bussing, from front Delp, who is employed by the Argos Schools, said, “My concern is that we’re headed to a county school.” She went on to say, “It is like “big boy” coming to town to flex his muscles.” “My comments are not about dollars and cents. It’s my heart.” However her spouse, Mike Delp, came from a different position. Mike Delp said, “In my mind, I’m all about Plymouth growing. As a taxpayer, if more students mean increasing facilities, then I would balk.” He added, “It would not be because the city is growing.” Also speaking from the audience were Brett Sanders and Judy Ditmire who both sit on the Argos School Board. Sanders indicated he wouldn’t have a problem with busing Argos students to Plymouth if it were a matter of a better fit for kids, but not about revenue. Ditmire simply asked, “Why now? What was the driving force?” Michele Riise, superintendent of Argos Schools, said, “Why was Argos and Culver targeted and not Union-North and Triton.” Hartley indicated that they began discussion when the state budget projections came out. After listening to the opinions from the audience and other Board members, Board President Todd Samuelson said, “I’m going to speak for myself. I’m not in favor of this. This is not something I’m ready to do.” He went on to say that when they began enrolling students from other districts, one of the criteria was that parents/guardians had to provide transportation. Board member Jenny Sickmiller said, “We are not in a desperate situation at this time.” Fellow Board member Melissa Christiansen agreed saying, “This is a decision that we can bring back anytime.” But Christiansen added that by keeping enrollment up it provides for Plymouth Schools students. Board member Larry Holloway had already questioned the idea saying ,”Is there a point where professionalism is out of bounds?” Pinkerton finally made the motion to table the matter saying, “At this point and time, I agree with “Sammy” (Todd Samuelson). The vote to table was 4-1 with Holloway casting the lone no vote for tabling as opposed to dismissing the matter. After the meeting, PEA (Plymouth Education Association) Co-President Laura Kruyer said, “As Mr. Pinkerton stated, the State of Indiana has created this atmosphere of competition among community schools.” “The newly approved budget for Indiana includes about a 2.3 percent annual increase in school spending. However, researching the topic a little further, it is revealed that much of that new money goes toward vouchers and charter schools.” she said. “In addition, the House of Representatives redesigned the complexity index. The complicity formula is used to calculate the amount of money our local schools receive from the state.” Kruyer said. “Small community schools are hardest hit by this new complexity index as state revenues are increasing based on student enrollment numbers. This situation has led to increased competition among community schools and aggressive marketing tactics by school corporations.” she said. During the Board meeting, Kruyer called for schools boards, superintendents, teachers, and parents of small town communities to join together. She said, “Reductions in funding for small town schools is an attack on the very heart of our communities. It is our united voice that will be heard the most.” Corrections In Memory of Kathy Johnson Wales Passed away on March 31 at Fort Myers, FL.

The walk is a good way to get healthy while leaving behind the pressures of a typic walk or race. TIPPECANOE — Potawatomi Wildlife Park was the site chosen by the Hoosier Hikers club for their Volksmarch. The event celebrated National Health and Physical Fitness Month. A Volksmarch is just one of several Volksporting events. Other events include swimming, biking and skiing. The events are hosted by clubs in more than 40 nations worldwide. The purpose of the events is to promote physical fitness, fellowship and to enjoy the outdoors. They are not contests of speed or endurance instead they focus on participation at a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable pace. A 5k, 10k and15k Volksmarch will be held at Potato Creek State Park in North Liberty on August 1 beginning at 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. with completion by 4 p.m. The event is sponsored by Hoosier Hikers (AVA Club #723) of South Bend. The starting point for this event is near the nature center. There is no charge to participate, however, there is a fee for the state park award which includes IVV Credit and identifying bar, is $15 after the close of pre-registration. There is an entrance fee to the park of $7 for in-state vehicles and $9 for out of state vehicles. A special needs trail will be available upon request. Water will be available at the start/ finish line and at check-points. Participants are encouraged to bring their own to carry on the trails as the weather will be much warmer by then.

Opinion Page A4 Pilot News • Wednesday, June 3, 2015 Passed-down parental prayers Parenthood and prayer go together. If that statement surprises you, recall the last time you faced a tiny, raging insomniac at 2 a.m. A 2-year-old who believes that in serving macaroni instead of spaghetti, you are trying to poison him. A middle-school slumber party attended by both budding Kim Kardashians and By Rachael Mother Theresas. A Phillips teen driver unaware of basic tenets of physics (“Two cars cannot occupy the same space simultaneously”), but boasts perfect eyesight — especially when the up-and-coming Kim Kardashian saunters past. See what I mean? Your prayer, like Erma Bombeck’s, may consist of “God help you if you do that again!” But most parents realize that no matter how dedicated and educated, they are not enough to raise kids – and yell “Help!” to Someone who is. Prayer and parenthood go together for all times and seasons. Empty nesters — better described as “elastic nesters” — collect a whole new set of prayers, including “Dear-Godmust-she-go?” and “Oh-Lord-he’s-back!” petitions. And requests that God grant scholarships to send their children’s significant others to the University of Siberia. Sometimes He grants these prayers. Occasionally, though, He realizes that we need fresh reminders of our finite humanity and marries our children to people who have interfaced permanently with their phones. Who majored in American Ninja Warrior arts. Who drink kale smoothies at Thanksgiving. Yet He uses this chain of events to answer our prayers. “My prayer?” you say incredulously. “When did I ask to pay for a kale-themed wedding reception in Cancun?” “You didn’t,” He answers. “But remember years ago, when you prayed your daughter would have children just like her?” We prayed that a thousand times, didn’t we? Yet, we expected Him to ignore our impassioned pleas? I was reminded of this last weekend when the hubs and I cared for our 4- and 6-year-old grandsons overnight so their parents could rediscover that their first names were not “Mommy” and “Daddy.” Though both boys have Lake-Michigan-blue eyes, and their mother’s are chocolate brown, they share her harmless Bambi disguise that fooled her classmates, teachers and her future husband. At the playground, her 6-year-old announces that he hates gravity. Most people wait until my age to adopt that viewpoint. But like his mother, he is precocious. Determined to flout gravity’s grip, he soars from bar to air to ladder to air with a fearlessness that sends me to my knees. Little Brother, an iron-willed tagalong (as his mother was), follows his sibling’s every move. There are no atheists in foxholes or on playgrounds. Especially if you’re a grandparent. And especially if, in visiting the Gas City Zoo, the older child presses for details as to why, exactly, the daddy peacock is showing off for the mommy peahen. Our prayer intensity levels only increase as we leave the park. Now, we not only pray for our grandsons’ safety and wellbeing, we pray for our home’s. All pillows must be tested for their aerodynamic qualities. Lamps, too. Little Brother experiments with gravity’s powers, lifting a mixer and broadcasting chocolate cake batter with a finesse his mother, at four, would have admired. Beds and bedtime, representing the ultimate insult to these gravity-free adventurers, are spurned as below their dignity. Finally confined by us dastardly adults, the boys rise before 6:30 the next morning like little hot-air balloons, tugging at their tethers. Fortunately, though Grandpa and I are dragging, our prayers fly even higher than the kids. Plenty of frostingsmothered, sprinkle-encrusted cupcakes also come to our aid. When our daughter and her husband return, we all are soaring higher than Saturn. She concludes the entire crew needs kale. And a timeout. Grandpa and I do not argue. Actually, we’re loving a timeout. With luck, maybe they’ll make us take a nap, too. Even naps exert little effect on the boys, however. Our daughter, after trying in vain to bring them back to earth, mutters those sacred words mothers have passed down through the centuries, that plea to the Divine that He understands so well: “Please let these kids have children just like themselves!” She does not realize that someday, when she believes she has finished her course, kept the faith, and uttered her “last” parental prayer, she will experience a weekend like ours. And realize prayer can be a dangerous thing. Coffee Corner Stand up straight We find ourselves between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. This last week I was reminded of some advice both of my parents gave me more than once. “Stand up straight.” “Sit up straight.” I have just begun another round of therapy, this time primarily for my left arm and secondly for my right. My arm and shoulder problems as with my leg problem, stem from my spine. Poor posture over the years has aggravated them, causing inflammation. I think of all the grief I would have saved myself if I had just listened to my parents. As a child slouching was a way to protest against authority. Poor posture also represented the easy way. It was hard to keep telling myself to stand up straight, to sit up straight. Today, I am paying for my years of poor posture. Attempting to stand and sit up straight seems unnatural. In fact it hurts and takes a real effort to maintain. Slouching now seems to come naturally. Bad habits have a way of becoming the norm. They are taken to be just a regular part of life. Suggesting changes would seem to not be the right thing to do. One has become accustomed to the wrong way of doing things. While the Bible does not have any- ... From the Heartland By Dave Hogsett thing to say about standing or sitting up straight, it does contain lots of other parental advice to be passed on to the next generation. Much of it is to be found in the Book of Proverbs. One goes against what is written there at one’s own peril. One can avoid a lot of grief by putting Proverbs’ advice into practice. Being reminded of my parents’ advice to stand and sit up straight, got me to thinking about other advice they gave me that I ignored and am now paying the price. So far nothing has come to mind. However, I am sure that somewhere down the road another one of my failures to take my parents’ advice will reveal itself. Life would be so much simpler if all of us would have taken to heart when we were children the good advice that parents, our teachers, and other adults gave us. Think of all the grief we would have avoided. But would there have been something missing? A part of growing up is making mistakes, not taking the advice of the previous generation. Such times become learning experiences. Most of us learn more from our failures than we do from our victories. Over these last months in dealing with problems that have arisen from poor posture I have learned a great deal about how the body is interrelated and about the need to practice good posture and to have regular exercise. I have to admit I am looking for that magic pill that will take away all of my aches and pains. Unfortunately, none are to be found. My therapist has given me encouragement that if I would implement a practice of regular therapy and exercise, I should show improvement. Nevertheless, I would still like to have one of those magic pills. Dave Hogsett is a retired United Methodist Church minister now residing in Plymouth. Thinking warmly about public pools Community pools serve as a ‘public good’ for the surrounding area With the school year coming to an end and the weather finally showing some hint of summer, pools across Indiana opened last week. I was even temporarily able to dispossess myself of two ornery ankle-biters at the local concrete pond for several hours. While hoping for a warm summer, it is useful to think about the economic nature of pools in our state. Obviously pools are a recreational item, the vast majority of which are provided by the private sector, mostly in backyards. There is a fairly long continuum of private ownership and operation of these pools. Some pools are operated solely on a for-profit basis as part of a country club. Others are provided on a quasi-private basis, such as often operated as non-profit affairs, exempt from local property taxes but are paid for through membership dues. Still other pools are owned by the public, such as municipal pools, but operated under a local contract for concessions, lifeguards and the like. In some cities, the pool is owned and operated by the government, usually a city or town. This raises important questions, such as why would a city operate a pool, and what should we expect from it as taxpayers? Commentary By Michael J. Hicks First, I think that some types of recreational activities can be easily justified as a something economists call a ‘public good.’ A ‘public good’ is something that will be under-provided by free markets, primarily because there is no way to prevent a third, non-paying party from enjoying the benefits of the good. A classic example is national defense. We can all sleep safely due to the benevolent might of the Air Force, even if we don’t pay our taxes. Clearly a swimming pool doesn’t meet the strict definition of a public good; if you put a fence up and charge a fee you can keep non-paying patrons away. But, having a variety of recreational activities within a community does have many of the characteristics of a public good. Thus, a bundle of activities or venues would meet the standard of a ‘public good,’ even if some of the individual elements cannot. The importance of acknowledging a clear public role in the provision of a pool is that they are almost certain to run an operating deficit when the construction and maintenance costs are accounted for. But, public goods aren’t expected to be profitable. The impact is not captured by a balance sheet. Rather, their benefit manifests itself elsewhere; in higher property values of surrounding homes, population growth, better health or reduced youthful mischief. I am not advocating a vast construction spree of public pools, trails and amphitheaters. However, I do think that we taxpayers would be wise to view a set of high quality municipal recreational venues as something reasonably provided for public use, not a subsidy or white elephant.

The Pilgrims had made a living coming from behind in sectional play, taking wins over South Bend Washington and Mishawaka in dramatic fashion, but Szynski took away that dream actually getting stronger as the game went on — striking out the side in the sixth and adding another “K” for good measure in the seventh on his way to the win. “That’s the tournament; you’re going to see the best the other team has every night and you’re going to throw your best out there,” said Plymouth coach Ryan Wolfe. “He (Szynski) was good tonight. We had some opportunities early, and he made pitches he had to make when he had to make them.” “You get past his fastball; his slider was probably his best pitch. I thought his fastball was all over the place early, and he went to the slider. We had to make them make some plays, and we couldn’t make any mistakes with a guy throwing like that. It’s unfortunate we couldn’t make that happen tonight.” Penn on the other hand did make that happen. They pushed across three firstinning runs on a pair of hits and Plymouth errors and then added two more in the second inning in exactly the same two-error, twohit fashion. Nik Kavados had the big first inning hit, a two-run single, and Brandon Stesiak had a run- scoring single in the second. Plymouth on the other hand left the bases loaded in the first, and two more on base in the second unable to take advantage of the limited opportunities Szynski offered. From there Plymouth reliever Brandon Milligan and Szynski fell into a classic pitchers’ duel, but the Pilgrims were unable to climb out of the five-run hole. “These seven guys (Plymouth’s seniors) put a lot of time and effort in with me,” said Wolfe. “It’s See Pilgrims, Page A6 Pilot photo/ Maggie Nixon Plymouth’s Spencer MaeCroft slides into third as the throw goes past the base for no tag during the Pilgrims’ sectional championship game versus Penn at Bill Nixon Field. Lions take regional 3rd time through Pilot photo/ Deanna L. Grenert Triton softball coach Steve McBride talks with his team to try to settle things down during a big first inning by South Central in regional championship action Tuesday. Pilot photo/ James Costello Bremen’s softball team celebrates its Class 2A regional championship win at Eastside in Butler Tuesday night. It was the Lady Lions’ first regional title since 2008 and just the program’s third overall. By James Costello Sports Editor BUTLER — The third time proved the charm for Bremen softball. After knocking on the door the past two seasons, the Lady Lions finally broke through Tuesday night with a 4-0 regional championship win on the road at Eastside. “Third time’s the charm. We got over the hurdle. I think I told you three years or four years ago we laid a foundation for them. We put up some walls, we got a roof. We’re starting to shingle it and maybe even put some doors on the inside — from Masonite since that’s where I work,” joked Bremen head coach Mike Huppert after the feel-good win. The victory represented a reprisal for Bremen, which fell 2-1 to Eastside on its home turf in the regional round of the tournament last spring. The Lions were more than happy to repay the favor Tuesday night in Butler, jumping out to an early lead and never looking back en route to only the program’s third-ever regional title and the first such championship since the 2008 state runner-up season. “Sweet revenge, I guess,” said Bremen senior center fielder Sabrina Gilley. “It’s nice to finally over- Pilot photo/ James Costello Chelsea Huppert delivers a pitch during the first inning of Tuesday’s regional championship. Huppert threw her fourth shutout in four tournament games so far. come them. We beat them in the earlier season (at the Eastside Tournament), but beating them again when we needed to really made it more special.” “The word I think of is revenge,” echoed junior third baseman Emily Molden. “That’s what we wanted. We lost to them last year, and we knew our ability is strong and so is theirs. It’s just such a great match-up. We came out on top because we have the passion for the game and compassion for everyone, too. It was great.” Bremen ace Chelsea Huppert continued to dazzle inside the circle, logging her fourth shutout in four state tournament games so far. She scattered four hits in this one while fanning eight Blazer batters and walking just one. It was an impressive performance by any standard but was especially brilliant given a tight — albeit consistent — strike zone at Tuesday’s regional tilt. Huppert adjusted quickly in the bottom of the first after Molden saved a potential leadoff hit with a diving line drive catch at third before Eastside’s Erin Strock followed up with a single to shallow right and reached second on a wild pitch. Huppert recovered with two straight Ks, and the Blazers would never reach third in the contest. “We’ve had him before so we kind of knew what to expect. We had a couple calls that could’ve gone either way — you get a low outside strike or you get a low outside ball,” said Mike Huppert. “But Chelse is just so confident. She just understands this game so well. We’ve studied them as far as where we needed to pitch them, and she just puts it right on the spot, right where we need to.” The Bremen junior hurler got all the run support she would ever need in the top of the first when the Lady Lions punished Eastside pitcher Ashton Miller’s See Lions, Page A6 French Open Lookahead: Djokovic, Nadal renew rivalry in QF PARIS (AP) — Maybe it’s because Novak Djokovic was only 19 at the time, young and full of bravado. Or perhaps it’s because he simply was saying aloud what he certainly hoped, but couldn’t be absolutely positive, was true. Then again, there’s also the possibility that Djokovic knew he had conjured up more winners that day than his opponent, despite playing with an aching back that led the Serb to quit a few points into the third set after losing the first two. Whatever the case, it’s fascinating to go back and read Djokovic’s declaration on the evening of June 7, 2006, after facing a certain guy by the name of Rafael Nadal in the French Open quarterfinals: “He’s the best on this surface, but he’s not unbeatable. That’s for sure.” Djokovic, ranked 63rd at the time, had never been that far at a Grand Slam tournament. He hadn’t faced Nadal before, either. All these years later, their rivalry — the best tennis has to offer these days — gets a 44th installment Wednesday, exactly in the same place, and under the same circumstances, as it began: Djokovic vs. Nadal in a quarterfinal on Court Philippe Chatrier at Roland Garros. No other two men have played each other so many times in the Open era of professional tennis, which began in 1968. Nadal leads 23-20 overall, 14-5 on clay, 9-3 at Grand Slam tournaments, 6-0 at the French Open. They haven’t met as early as a quarterfinal at any major since that very first encounter. “Of course I don’t like playing a quarterfinal against Novak, that’s for sure,” Nadal said, “and I hope that Novak won’t like playing me in a quarterfinal.” This time, Djokovic is ranked and seeded No. 1, and carrying a 26-match winning streak. “He’s the best player of the world, without any doubt, today. Very dominant,” Nadal said. “Probably everybody’s with me that probably he is the favorite here.” Big first inning plus Becker’s arm propels South Central past Triton in softball regional championship By Doug Griffiths Staff Writer BOURBON — The South Central Satellites jumped all over host Triton Tuesday in the opening frame and got a complete game from sophomore pitcher Savannah Becker to earn them a 7-2 victory and a Class A regional championship. The 14th-ranked Satellites, 22-7 overall, scored six times in the top of the first inning, taking advantage of a couple Trojan errors and freshman Breana Brewer’s two-run, twoout home run. That was plenty of run support for Becker, who dominated through the first five innings, allowing just two base runners during that time — both who reached on singles. Becker retired the first 11 batters she faced, striking out three before Nicole Sechrist’s solid single over shortstop Kayla Sommers. It was Becker’s ninth complete game of the season as she improved her record to a stellar 20-2. “I was kind of nervous before the game started, but once the game started rolling I was perfectly fine,” said Becker, who entered the game with a 1.69 ERA. “It (the six-run first inning) was really nice because it allowed me to throw whatever pitch I wanted and knew I would have my defense behind me to back me up.” South Central first-year head coach Tony Wallace wasn’t overly surprised by Becker’s performance. “That’s what she gives me day in and day out,” he said. “Savannah keeps her composure on the mound. She throws strikes. She was mixing it up a lot. She wasn’t staying in the same location every pitch.” Triton head coach Steve McBride tipped his cat to Becker, but admitted she didn’t have the most velocity on her pitches that his team had faced this season. “It wasn’t speed we hadn’t seen before, but we hadn’t seen it recently,” McBride explained. “I did wonder if we were going to get a hit off her and even a baserunner.” Becker finished with four strikeouts, didn’t walk a single batter and seemed to be throwing just as hard in the top of the seventh as she did at the beginning of the game. “I would rate my performance a seven out of 10 because some of my pitches weren’t working, but some of them were,” Becker said. No. 8 Triton (20-11) did make a little noise against Becker in the bottom of the sixth as the first three hitters reached base. Catcher Zoee Stephan doubled to lead things off and scored on Kayla Kreft’s single. Tatum Hargrave, who reached base after being hit by a pitch, scored on a two-out single by Lexee Lemler. However, the sixth was the only multi-hit inning the Trojans could muster against Becker. She retired the side in order in the seventh to end the game. South Central’s first-inning onslaught began when Sommers led the frame off with a single. Becker followed with a one-out double to put runners on second and third. Jennifer Salyer then grounded out to third, allowing Sommers to score the game’s first run. Morgan Wright followed with a single to left, scoring Becker. Mikayla Rosenbaum was up next and she reached on an error. Jessica Gilmore then singled to center, scoring Wright as well as Rosenbaum when Hargrave’s throw See Triton, Page A6 Sports Page A6 Sports Briefs Lions cont. from Page A5 Baseball PHS youth baseball camp PLYMOUTH — The Plymouth High School Baseball Camp will take place at Bill Nixon Field in Centennial Park from June 8-10.

Mauk Norm Earlywine Warsaw, IN Bremen, IN #AU10900003 #AU0924004 early wildness with three runs. Gilley drew a one-out walk and advance to third on a pair of wild pitches, and Shelby Zellmer drove her in with a single down the right field line. Molden coaxed a two-out walk from Miller, and Huppert helped her own cause with a tworun, two-strike base knock into shallow left field to put the Lions up 3-0. “We watched them play earlier, and (Miller) did the same thing,” said Mike Huppert. “She got a little wild early, and we wanted to get on her early and be aggressive so we could get in scoring position. We got a duck snort out into right and then a duck snort out into left from Chelse for two runs scored.” “We had a long bus ride over here so we were very focused. We weren’t that nervous, and it was really nice because being together as a team, just the atmosphere,” explained Molden. “Right off the bat we wanted something, we knew that would rattle them because we’ve been watching their stats and their sectional games were really close and we thought that if we could just get on them right away then they’ll get rattled. That’s what happened, and we stayed strong.” Gilley added another run for good measure in the third reaching on a dropped fly ball in center and stealing second, setting the table for Molden, whose two-out grounder to short was overthrown to first to push the score out to its final margin. “We were loud, and we just did the things we need- ed to do. We got the hits, we moved them over and we got them in,” Gilley said. “That’s kind of a thing that we always say — ‘Get them on, get them over, get them in.’ “The emotions are high. We all feel so good, and we’re all just proud of each other.” The Lady Lions now move to a sparkling 27-3 record on the year and advance to face Boone Grove in a LaVille Semistate semifinal Saturday at Newton Park. Manchester plays Elwood in the other LaVille semi, and the winners will square off later in the day in a 7 p.m. championship. “Look at our crowd here again. I said last week it was for the community and it was for the parents, grandparents, family, friends, everybody that makes the trip with us,” Mike Huppert said. “An hour and a half over here, and here they are. We’re going to have a big crowd over at LaVille.” “The team just exudes confidence,” continued the Bremen skipper. “You can feel it. They all want to contribute — they all hang their heads when they make a mistake. We’ve just got to keep them up; we’ve just got to keep working hard. We’ve got three more practices. I love that part. We get three more practices, and we’ll fix a few things, we’ll adjust, and I’m looking forward to the next chapter.” how to play the game of baseball, and that’s what we want.” Penn (22-9) heads to the LaPorte regional on Saturday. • PENN 5, PLYMOUTH 0 At Plymouth Sectional Plymouth: 000 000 0 — 0 3 3 Penn: 320 000 x — 5 6 2 WP: Szynski.

Triton senior Brycelyn Garbison picked up the loss, falling to 12-8 on the season. She pitched six innings and didn’t allow a run in her final three innings of work, limiting the Satellites’ powerful offense to just three hits during that time. “I’ve got to be honest, I wasn’t sure we would accomplish what we did this year,” McBride said.

FRED & BARBARA WILHELM KRATHWOHL, OWNERS Pilot News • Wednesday, June 3, 2015 Fun & Advice Page A7 Avoiding 21st-century hazards Dustin BY MICHAEL ROIZEN, M.D., AND MEHMET OZ, M.D. “Can you hear me now?” When actor Paul Marcarelli uttered that phrase — over and over and over again — in a mobile phone company ad, we’re pretty sure he never thought the question should be directed at pregnant women and their fetuses. But that’s what researchers from Wyckoff Heights Medical Center in New York City wondered about. So they tracked 28 obstetrics and gynecology residents, all of whom were in their third trimester and carried beepers or cellphones near their fetus’s head. Preliminary findings, presented at the 2015 American Blondie Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists meeting, were that a cellphone’s ringing, beeping and buzzing startle a fetus and disrupt its sleep patterns. (The researchers pointed out that studies of pregnant women who live near airports have found that aviation noise also startles fetuses.) Over time, around 60 percent of the fetuses toned down their reaction to the cellphones, even as the researchers made the noise more frequent, but that doesn’t mean the sounds don’t continue to change normal fetal behavior. The scientists’ advice to pregnant women: Keep cellphones as far away from your belly and the fetus’s head as possible. Another finding from the same meeting: While pregnant, e-cigs are NOT safer than smoking tobacco cigarettes, according to researchers from the University of Maryland. The nicotine they (usually) contain alters brain development in a growing embryo, and some e-cigs contain heavy metals that can be harmful. Even the American Vaping Association says pregnant women shouldn’t vape. Moments in time The History Channel Chuckle of the day... Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today, it’s called golf. Boyfriend with hidden child may harbor other secrets DEAR ABBY: I’m having a hard time getting over a secret my boyfriend, “Wayne,” kept from me. We have been off and on for 14 years, but back on for the past four. The problem is, he had a child with a woman in a different country. The child is now 9. Wayne didn’t mention it until four years ago, during our last breakup. It bothers me that he kept it from me. I have since met the woman and the child, but my trust in my boyfriend is strained. In the back of my By Jeanne Phillips mind I keep wondering what else he hasn’t told me. Abby, he was always against having kids with me. He said he didn’t want any. Now I wonder if it was because he already had one. Wayne is surprised I’m so challenged by this. He says he and the woman dated for only a few months, then broke up because he didn’t feel they were compatible. She told me their child was the product of a one-night stand. Now I don’t know who to believe. Please advise. — BETRAYED OUT WEST DEAR BETRAYED: There is a reason why Dear Abby you and Wayne have been “off and on” for 14 years, and I’m guessing it’s because he has a problem with commitment. Now it appears he may also have a problem leveling with you. If you have to make a choice about whom to believe, I think you should believe the mother of his child because by telling you what she did, it’s clear she wasn’t trying to make herself look any better. ****** DEAR ABBY: My 85-year-old mother told me that upon her death she is leaving each of her children a letter expressing to them how they have hurt her throughout the years. Never once has she acknowledged how deeply she has hurt US. It affected our childhood and adulthood. I think if she feels we hurt her, she should say it to us while she’s living. It has always been about Mom’s needs, not ours. I, for one, plan to put her unopened letter in her coffin to be buried with her when the time comes. Her letter is just a final hurtful arrow to stab us with, and I already have had a lifetime of that. I don’t need her to damage me further. Am I wrong? Normally parents leave heartwarming letters to give their children peace. She reads your column, so I hope she reconsiders. — ALREADY WOUNDED IN CALIFORNIA DEAR ALREADY WOUNDED: You’re not wrong. Your mother appears to be toxic. Sending her negativity down with her is a perfect solution in my opinion. Chicken salad sandwiches By Healthy Exchanges tomatoes.

However, when I open a container, there is always a teaspoon or so of a yellowish (sort of), watery fluid. What is it, and is the yogurt OK? FYI: I have not become ill from the yogurt. -- Jeanne M. in San Antonio Of course you have not become ill. That liquid is just a little separation of the liquid whey and the solids in yogurt. You can pour it off, but it’s loaded with vitamins and nutrients, so just stir to mix. -- Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 78279-5000 Fax: 210-HELOISE Email: Heloise(at)Heloise.com CUTTING LETTUCE Dear Heloise: I learned this at a restaurant where I worked: Never use a knife on lettuce. A knife will cause oxidation, which will cause “rust stains” on the lettuce. Tear the pieces that you want. Your lettuce will stay fresh and beautiful. -Lynn W., Sidney, Ohio This is an ongoing debate. This “hint” has been around a long time. Frankly, from what I have researched, it’s outdated. If you’re going to eat the lettuce soon, there is no time for it to “rust” and turn brown. Some say a nonsteel knife is best. I have several large plastic and ceramic kitchen knives, as well as stainless steel. I tested cutting with a steel knife, a plastic knife and a ceramic one, and tearing the iceberg lettuce. There was no 325 Garage Sales difference a day or so later when I took the four zip bags of lettuce from the refrigerator. If you are planning on using it a day or two later, why not cut or tear it then? -- Heloise P.S.: Please, no letters about “bruising” by using a knife! I don’t think the lettuce cares! ORGANIZING HINT Dear Heloise: After years of digging through packages and packages of frozen meats and vegetables in my freezer, I came up with a solution. I purchased six nylon mesh drawstring bags of different colors. Now I have my freezer items in color-coded bags. Pork goes in the lightgreen bag, vegetables in the bright-green bag, fish in the navy-blue bag, red is the frozen beef, and purple means poultry. I keep frozen cheeses in the white one. It makes finding what I’m looking for easier. -- Bev Cent in Nebraska BETTER BREADING Dear Heloise: I found a fast-and-easy way to bread meat and fish: I use cheap, storebrand gallon-size plastic bags with ties. I combine breading ingredients in the bag, shake them up, drop the meat in and shake until completely covered. When done, I tie it up and throw it away. No mess to clean up, and no plate to wash. -- Judy W., Church Hill, Tenn. COUPON DATES Dear Heloise: When I receive fastfood or other coupons, I take a marker and write the expiration date in large numbers so I will know instantly when they expire.
