pool closes for
the summer
By Becky Polaski
Staff Writer
The St. Marys Community Pool closed for the
year at the end of the day
on Sunday, ending a summer filled with fun times
and relaxing afternoons
spent at the facility by
area residents.
Sarah Sweeney, who
wrapped up her first
year as pool manager, remarked that she thought
the summer went really
well.
“Despite the weather
in June, I really do think
(attendance) picked up
in July,” Sweeney said.
“I think we started some
new things that we’re
looking forward to for next
year, such as the water
volleyball league.”
Pool staff built their
own water volleyball net
earlier this summer and
are in the process of raising the funds necessary to
purchase a real one.
“I’m pretty sure that
we’ll still be trying to raise
that money next summer,”
Sweeney said. “We’re definitely not at our goal yet.”
Other events, such as
Pirate Nights and Michael
Proudfit Night were also
popular and well attended.
“I think (the two Pirate
Nights) had a good turnout, especially the second
one. We had good weather
and we had it at night
swim,” Sweeney said. “We
had a good crowd for Michael Proudfit Night as
well. We’re hopefully look-

The American Spirit of Aviation Festival was held Saturday
at the St. Marys Municipal Airport, drawing people of all ages to
not only see the variety of planes
on hand for the event, but also
to check out the vendor booths
and the Elk County Cruisers’ car
show.
While there was a lot to see
and do, one of the highlights of
the event was a pair of parachute
jumps by Bill Wilt of DuBois. Wilt
also performed a pair of jumps at
the festival when it was last held
two years ago.
Wilt made his first jump just
before 10 a.m., landing near the
runway as members of the Crystal Fire Department put on a pa-
triotic display by crossing jets of
water from their hoses to create
a rainbow near a large American
flag.
Following his first jump of
the day, the youthful 67-year-old
explained that he has been jumping out of airplanes for nearly 50
years.
“I have 1,100 sport parachute
jumps plus another 71 military
jumps,” Wilt said, explaining
that he got his start in the Air
Force back in 1967.
“I was in a special branch of
air traffic control called combat
control. You had to be jump qualified to be able to work behind
enemy lines and get there somehow,” Wilt said. “I had great expe-

Saturday was a busy day at
Elk County Catholic High School.
A number of people took advantage of the warm, sunny
weather and stopped by the inaugural ECCSS Summer Festival, which was held at the school
from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. Some
came only for the be.colorful 5K
run/walk, while others showed
up to watch one of the various entertainers that took to the stage
throughout the day. There were
also people who came to browse
the wide variety of food and vendor booths that were set up both
in the small parking lot outside
of the school’s cafeteria, as well
as in the cafeteria itself.
As the event slowly drew to
a close on Saturday evening, Elk
County Catholic High School
principal Sandy Florig remarked
that everyone was pleased with
how it had turned out.
“It has exceeded our expectations,” Florig said of the festival.
“With it being the first one, we
had no idea what to expect. We
had the air show this morning to
compete against and college kids
going back this weekend, so it
was a good guess on everybody’s
part how much food to buy, how
many drinks to have ready, and
so on. I think everybody did an
excellent job.”

RIDGWAY – Organizers are
hard at work preparing for a time
capsule ceremony at Elk County’s
war memorial in Ridgway in front
of the Elk County Courthouse along
Main Street.
When the memorial was placed
in memory of all veterans of all
wars, a time capsule was buried behind it on Saturday, May 26, 1990.
The capsule is to be opened this
year in September during a ceremony on the courthouse lawn. A new
25-year capsule will then take its
place. A definitive date and time has
not yet been finalized.
Landscaping was recently re-
vamped in the area of the memorial
as organizers begin their final preparations for the event.
“They did a beautiful job with
the new landscaping, it looks excellent,” said Elk County Veterans Affairs Director Leslie Neal. “When
you drive by our courthouse now,
it is just beautiful and it’s what it
should be.”
Craig Singer, the former director of Veterans Affairs for Elk
County, was one of the organizers
25 years ago for the initial time capsule.
“One of the things we did last
time was we put prices in, gallon of

An array of Redneck attire was on display Friday evening during the 14th Annual Wing Fling, sponsored by the St. Marys Area Chamber of Commerce and Farmers National Bank. Over the past
several years an award has been presented for the best costume depicting the event’s theme. As
part of the 2015 Wing Fling Redneck Edition, Dave Stauffer and Michelle Pontious, claimed the top
award for best costume. The pair arrived in true redneck style as Stauffer drove a lawn tractor pulling
a wagon with Pontious inside along with a sign reading ‘She Thinks My Tractor Is Sexy’. Both
sported various camouflage clothing attire along with redneck teeth mouthpieces. Pontious donned
beer can rollers in her hair, denim overalls, and carried her redneck baby in a sling. The pair also
claimed an award last year for their themed attire at the event.

CLARKSBURG (AP)
– Authorities say a small
plane made an emergency
landing in a western Pennsylvania river, but the pilot escaped injury.
Officials in the Saltsburg volunteer fire department in Indiana County
said the single-engine aircraft experienced mechan-
ical difficulties and was
losing fuel pressure.
So the pilot set the aircraft down in the Kiskiminetas River near Saltsburg
at about 1:30 p.m. Sunday
in a spot that officials said
was about 5 feet deep.
Chief John Dice said
the pilot wasn’t hurt and
was able to reach shore.

Despite the success of
some of the events that
have been held previously
at the pool, such as the Pirate Nights, the future of
the events remain uncertain, especially since former special events coordinator Erik Dauber moved
out of the area.
“He (Dauber) is going to be a big loss to us,”
Sweeney said. “It’s really
going to be about what the
lifeguards want to do here
next summer. I’m going to
let them take the lead on
whatever activities they
want to run and give them
ownership of what they
want to do.”

ed that they averaged
around 350 patrons using
the facility on any given
day this summer.
“On a relatively good
day, it averages about 150,
and 300 on a really good
day,” Sweeney said. “August is our slow month, so
we only had about 50-100.
Today, we have a pretty
good turnout for the last
day.”
Sweeney added that
she has enjoyed getting
to know members of the
community as they visited the pool throughout
the summer.
“It’s
a
beginning,
something to build off of,”
Sweeney said of her first
year as pool manager. “It
did go really well for me. I
really enjoyed it.”

Wilt also noted that
his first jump Saturday
morning was also only his
12th of the year as other
interests have occupied
much of his time lately.

parachuting. I’m retired
from working for the electric company, but I’ve just
been blessed,” he said.

I’ve only had three malfunctions to where I rode
a reserve parachute to

experience.”
He also enjoys sharing
what he has learned with
others.
“I’ve done several air
shows and different community events,” Wilt said.
“I’ve done assembly programs at schools. I primarily gear it for elementary
students so I can teach
them a lot about aviation, aerodynamics, wind,
weather, and all that.”
He often jumps in
Grove City or on the other
side of Harrisburg, where
he has family.
“I have family living down there, so there’s
another jump club that I
jump at there often,” Wilt
said.
After completing a
jump, it takes Wilt roughly
20 minutes to pack up his
parachute and get everything ready to jump again.

Kane's Legal Woes Stoke
Interest in 2016 Election
By Peter Jackson
Associated Press Writer
HARRISBURG (AP) —
The 2016 campaign for Pennsylvania attorney general is
off to an uncertain start as
candidates and prospective
candidates line up without
knowing whether they will be
running against embattled
incumbent Kathleen Kane or
for an open seat.
Regardless of Kane's
status, one Democrat and two
Republicans have already
declared their candidacy, six
months before the deadline
for nomination petitions.
Others are waiting — and
watching. Kane, who made
history in 2012 by becoming
the first woman and the first
Democrat to be elected as the
state's top law-enforcement
official, has said she plans to
seek re-election even though
Democrats including Gov.
Tom Wolf have called on her
to step down. But for now, she
is defending herself against
criminal charges including
perjury, false swearing and
obstruction.
Uncertainty over Kane's
future, including a potential
trial that could spill over into
next year, may complicate the
endorsements for attorney
general the Democratic Party
will consider early next year.
It also is throwing open the
doors to a potential political
free-for-all, but so far it has
not attracted big-city prosecutors whose name are most
familiar to voters, such as
district attorneys Stephen
Zappala of Allegheny County
or Seth Williams of Philadelphia. Kane, who says she
has done nothing wrong, is
"a wounded candidate under
the best of circumstances,"
said Marcel Groen, a Montgomery County lawyer who
is unopposed for election next
month as the state Democratic Party's chairman. "It's
a sad situation. I think she
should have taken a leave of
absence."
Kane contends that the
office has run efficiently
under her leadership: In the
last 15 months, her office has
announced more than 200
child predator arrests and
more than 1,100 drug arrests,
as well as a settlement with
electricity suppliers to return
$2.4 million to consumers,
she said this month.
"As you can see, and as
any mother of two young
boys can you tell you, we are
experts at multitasking," she
said.
Republicans hoping to
recapture the office after
only four years "would love
nothing more than having
that issue ... play out in a
general election," Groen said
of Kane's legal problems. "It
may or may not be fair, but it
is real."
A battle over the Republican nomination is already
heating up between two
Montgomery County legislators — Sen. John Rafferty
and Rep. Todd Stephens, who
threw his hat into the ring
Thursday.
Rafferty, a fourth-term
senator, is the Transportation
Committee chairman who
championed the $2 billionplus transportation improvement program approved in
2013. Before running for
the Senate, he served as a
deputy attorney general with
responsibility for the criminal
law division and grand jury
probes. Rafferty campaigned
briefly for the office before the
2012 election but dropped out
when then-Gov. Tom Corbett
instead endorsed Cumberland County District Attorney
David Freed, whom Kane ultimately defeated. Stephens,
who is serving his third term
in the House, is contrasting
his record as a county and
federal prosecutor for nearly
a decade with Rafferty's more
limited courtroom experience.
"Now, more than ever, we
need an experienced prosecutor as our attorney general,"
he says in a campaign video.
Rafferty says his experience as a lawyer, legislator
and businessman has prepared him for the job.
"My strong record of being
an effective leader and my
prosecutorial experience
earned me the endorsements
of the Pennsylvania State
Troopers Association, State
Fraternal Order of Police and
the State Professional Firefighters Association," he said.
Besides Kane, the only declared Democratic candidate
so far is Jack Stollsteimer, a
lawyer and former prosecutor
in Delaware County whose
only previous campaign experience was an unsuccessful
bid for state House in 1992.
He works for an auditing
company that helps states
return unclaimed property to
its owners.
Many Democratic insiders say Montgomery County
Commissioner Chairman
Josh Shapiro is likely to run,
although he won't confirm it.
The former state representative is running this year for
re-election to his county job
and is Wolf's appointee as
chairman of the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime
and Delinquency.
"I am focused on my two
jobs right now," Shapiro said.
John Morganelli,
Northampton County's
district attorney for 24 years,
says he is considering running for attorney general
a fourth time after losing
primaries in 2000 and 2004
and the general election in
2008. Morganelli supported
Kane in 2012, but now says
her missteps have hurt the
party's prospects.
"It's going to be really hard
for any Democrat to win this
race," he said.

Guest Commentary
Canned Pleasure: The Thrill of the Kill
Would you like to go to
Zimbabwe, kill and behead
a lion, just like that dentist from Minnesota or the
physician from Pittsburgh
recently did? They paid
about $50,000 each for that
experience
How about a black rhino,
an endangered species?
A professional hunter
from Dallas, Texas, won a
$350,000 lottery to stalk
and kill that animal in
southern Namibia. In the
1950s, there were about
70,000 black rhinos. There
are now fewer than 2,400,
most of them killed off by
the human predators.
If giraffes are your
thing, you can go to South
Africa and, like a woman
from Idaho, kill the world’s
tallest animal, pose with
it, and post it onto your
Facebook page.
But, let’s say your
anemic bank account can’t
provide you with the funds
for a two-week safari,
because that rebel flag you
just bought to mount on
your broken-down pick-up
cost too much.
For a few thousand dollars, Great White Hunters—complete with rented
guides, dogs, and guns
or bows—can go into a
fenced-in area and shoot
an exotic species. In most
canned hunts, the animals
have been bred to be killed,
have little fear of humans,
and are often lured to a
feeding station or herded
toward the hunter to allow
a close-range kill. In some
of the preserves, animals
are drugged or tied to
stakes. Some of the “big
cats,” recorded in investigative undercover videos by
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service and the Fund for
Animals were declawed,
placed in cages, and then
released; the terrified and
non-aggressive animals
were then killed within a
few yards of their prisons;
some were killed while in
their cages.
For less than $3,000 you
can go to Snyder County,
Pa., and kill an elk, a deer,
or a wild boar. You don’t
even need a hunting license
or worry about hunting
out of season. The animals
are fenced in on a private
preserve.
The club recently placed
full-page ads in local newspapers, and promises that
for your $1,000 to $3,000
thrill, you get a guaranteed
success, lodging, meals, and
even a color photo of you
and what is euphemistically known as a trophy.
If pheasants are your
thing, you can head out to
the Rolling Rock Club in
Ligonier, Pa. This is where
Dick Cheney and some of
his shooting buddies stood
and killed more than 400
just-released birds, which
they blasted onto their dinner plates for a lead-scented meal. In the afternoon,
having hardly raised a
bead of sweat, the good ole
boys slaughtered dozens of
equally tame mallards that
had been hand-raised and
shoved in front of waiting
shotguns for the massacre.
By the time Cheney flew
out of the area, the mallards were plucked and
vacuum-packed, ready for
flight aboard the taxpayerfunded Air Force 2.
The pheasant hunt was a
year after the Mighty Dick
sent shotgun pellets into
the face of a 78-year-old
hunting companion, whom
he thought was a quail.
Prefer pigeons? Although
they’re not a “canned hunt,”
there are still a half-dozen
target shoots in southeastern Pennsylvania, where
club officials release the
birds within 20 yards of
contestants, making a kill
even easier than hitting
metal ducks at a carnival’s
shooting gallery. You can’t
even eat the pigeons—by
the time you pick the shotgun pellets from the bird,
there’s no meat left.
Many of the animals on
canned hunts are surplus animals bought from
dealers who buy cast-off
animals from zoos and
circuses; the animals sold
to the preserves are often
aged and arthritic. Dozens
of preserves have bought
black bears, zebras, giraffes, lions, boars, and just
about any species of animal
the client could want, solely
to be killed, photographed,
and then skinned, stuffed,
and mounted. Most “kills”
on the “farms” are from
animals bleeding out. Animals suffer from minutes to
hours, says Heidi Prescott,
senior vice-president of
the Humane Society of the
United States. Canned
hunting, says Prescott, “is
about as sporting as shooting a puppy in pet store
window.” Most sportsmen
agree with her.
The concept of the “fair
chase” is embedded into
hunter culture. The Boone
& Crockett Club and the
Pope and Young Club (bowhunters), two of the three
primary organizations that
rate trophy kills, refuse to
accept applications from
persons who bagged their
“trophy” on a canned hunt.
The Safari Club does allow
persons to seek recognition,
but only under limitations
that most preserves can’t
meet.
These pretend-hunters
have dozens of reasons why
they do what they do. The
word “conservation” often
appears dripping from their
meat-filled lips. Some claim
they are doing it to conserve wildlife by eliminating the weakest among the
species. But, since animals
have done rather well at
preserving the balance of
nature, why would humans
want to alter it?
The big-game safari killers, who can afford a southern African hunt that costs
more than the yearly wages
of most Americans, say that
the fees go to conservation
efforts to save the animals.
If that’s the reason, why
not just take that huge roll
of 100s, donate it to the
preserves, take a tax deduction and get a suitable-forframing color photo of a
living animal?
Whatever their reasons
to mask their recreation,
there is only one reason
why they do what they do.
They enjoy massaging a
phallic symbol and taking
a life.

3 killed in head-on crash
between SUV, sedan
FORD CITY (AP) —
State police say three
people were killed in a
head-on collision between
two vehicles, one of which
was apparently traveling
on the wrong side of a divided western Pennsylvania highway.
Police in Armstrong
County said the crash between a sedan and a sport
utility vehicle occurred
shortly before 3 a.m.
Sunday on Route 28/66 in
Manor Township.
The sedan driver,
Gregory Johns, 46, of
Worthington; the SUV
driver, Alex Davis, 21, of
McGrann; and SUV passenger Francis Danahey
Jr., 27, of Verona, were
all pronounced dead at
the scene, state police
said.
The Pittsburgh PostGazette reported that
another SUV passenger
was flown to UPMC Presbyterian with what the
coroner’s office reported
as severe injuries.
“We definitely know
that one of the two vehi-
cles was going the wrong
way,” Chief Deputy Coroner Robert Bellas told the
paper. “This is inexplicable as to why that happened.”
He said the Route
85 interchange is well
marked and not confusing and there is no history of other crashes along
that stretch due to vehicles traveling the wrong
way. State police were
called about a “dark colored” vehicle seen traveling the wrong way in the
minutes before the crash.
Both vehicles involved
were black, Bellas said.
Bellas also said there
were no tire tracks in the
grass median, indicating
one of the vehicles didn’t
get into the wrong lane
by crossing the median.
State police said investigators are trying to
determine which vehicle was traveling in the
wrong direction.
The crash prompted
closure of the highway
for about six hours, emergency dispatchers said.
New Mexicans say they dished
out world’s longest tamale
BELEN, N.M. (AP) —
A group of people in New
Mexico say they cooked the
world’s longest tamale Saturday morning.
Luis Hernandez of
the ABQ West Chamber
of Commerce says that a
team of more than 30 chefs
at Viva II, a three-day
celebration of the state’s
heritage, assembled a 116foot. 7-inch long tamale at
the Valencia County fairgrounds in Belen.
Organizers say the ingredients, which were provided by Bueno Foods, included 120 pounds of masa
and 50 pounds of green
chile.
A local manufacturer
of home improvement material has also designed a
special steamer out of aluminum to cook the tamale
in.
Hernandez says the
team plans to submit all
the required documentation to Guinness World Records to get official recognition for the achievement.
According to Guinness
World Records, the longest
tamale assembled was in
Cancun, Mexico, in 2011
and measured a little longer than 66 feet.

Hundreds march to protest
proposed natural gas pipeline
UPPER
BLACK
EDDY (AP) — Several
hundred protesters turned
out Saturday to march
across the Delaware River
in opposition to a proposed
114-mile pipeline that
would shuttle natural gas
from Pennsylvania to New
Jersey.
Those against PennEast’s proposal said during the mile-long march
they’re concerned the pipeline would badly damage
the landscape and natural
resources in the region,
and lower property values.
“The people of Pennsylvania and New Jersey
are showing they are unified in their message to
PennEast: Go home, we
don’t want your pipeline,”
said Maya van Rossum,
who leads the nonprofit
Delaware
Riverkeeper
Network. “It’s also a message to politicians and
regulators. They have to
decide whether they want

A Family Fire Safety Tip
From The Johnsonburg
Fire Department
Test Your Smoke Alarm Monthly
WASHINGTON (AP)
— It’s double trouble for
the National Zoo after its
adult female panda gave
birth to twins.
The cubs arrived about
five hours apart Saturday.
Panda mom Mei Xiang
(may-SHONG) gave birth
to the first cub at 5:35
p.m. and a second at 10:07
p.m., the zoo said. If the
cubs survive, they would
be the 17-year-old panda’s
third and fourth surviving
offspring.
Mei Xiang’s first cub,
Tai Shan, was born in 2005
and returned to China
in 2010. Her second cub,
Bao Bao, turns 2-years-old
Sunday and still lives at
the zoo.
The new additions
mean that for the first
time the zoo has five pandas in residence. In addition to Bao Bao, Mei Xiang
and the new cubs, the zoo
is also home to an adult
male panda named Tian
Tian. In the past, the zoo
has never had more than
three pandas at one time.
Zoo director Dennis
Kelly said at an evening
news conference following
the first cub’s birth that he
was “so happy, so pleased,
so excited.” The zoo’s chief
veterinarian Don Neiffer
was also asked about the
possibility of a second cub.
In 2013, when Mei Xiang
gave birth to Bao Bao, she
also gave birth to a stillborn cub. Asked about the
possibility of a second cub
this time around, Neiffer
said that during an ultrasound earlier this week
he did see “two areas that
made me excited.”

Love wins Wyndham; Tiger
struggles in final round
GREENSBORO, N.C.
(AP) — Davis Love III’s
long victory drought is
over. Tiger Woods will have
to wait a while to get another chance.
Love won the Wyndham Championship on
Sunday to become the
third-oldest winner in PGA
Tour history, while Woods’
season came to an abrupt
end.
The 51-year-old Love
closed with a 6-under 64
for a one-stroke victory
over Jason Gore.
“Any victory now is going to be really sweet when
you’re over 50,” Love said.
The dominant storyline all week at Sedgefield
Country Club was the
mere presence of Woods,
who needed a victory to
earn a spot in the FedEx
Cup playoffs opener next
week.
He was poised to challenge Sunday, starting just
two strokes off the lead.
But he only had one birdie
during his first 10 holes,
dropping way off the pace
with a triple bogey on the
par-4 11th. Woods shot a
70, finished four strokes
back and ended at No. 178
in the standings, well outside the cut-off of 125.
“I gave myself a
chance, and I had all the
opportunity in the world
today to do it,” Woods said.
“I didn’t get it done.”
Now comes a break before his next tournament,
the Frys.com Open in October in northern California.
It’s the first event of the
tour’s 2015-16 season.
“This is my offseason
right now,” he said.
Love — who started at
No. 186 — played himself
into The Barclays by earning 500 FedEx Cup points
and $972,000 in prize money.
At 51 years, 4 months,
10 days, Love trails only
Sam Snead and Art Wall on
the tour’s age list. Snead
won the last of his eight
Greensboro titles at Sedgefield in 1965 at 52 years, 10
months, 8 days, and Wall
took the 1975 Greater Milwaukee Open at 51 years,
7 months, 10 days.
Love has 21 career
victories, three in Greensboro. His previous two
wins came across town at
Forest Oaks in 1992 and
2006, and he had just one
win since then — at the
2008 Children’s Miracle
Network Classic in Florida.
“To have your name
thrown out there with Sam
Snead at any point is incredible,” Love said. “For
some reason, this tournament has been good to guys
in my age group.”
Love
finished
at
17-under 263. Gore, the
third-round leader, shot
a 69. Scott Brown (68),
Charl Schwartzel (66) and
Paul Casey (67) were two
strokes behind Love.
Love, who was four
strokes back after three
rounds, started strong with
four birdies and an eagle
on Nos. 2-6. He moved to
17 under with an eagle on
the par-5 15th — the first
of his career during a competitive round on that hole.
PITTSBURGH (AP) —
Jordy Nelson caught the
ball, spun and prepared to
dart downfield.
Two steps later, Green
Bay’s Pro Bowl wide receiver
was on the turf, his left knee
injured and his season very
much in doubt. While Nelson
was able to gingerly walk to
the sideline early in the first
quarter of Sunday’s 24-19
exhibition loss to Pittsburgh,
it might be the last sign of
Nelson in his familiar No. 87
jersey this year.
While Packers coach
Mike McCarthy stressed
the defending NFC North
champions “will look for good
news” when Nelson is reevaluated in Green Bay on
Monday, quarterback Aaron
Rodgers’ expressed equal
parts frustration and mystification.
“It’s difficult to lose a guy
like that in a meaningless
game,” Rodgers said.
The play that may
change the course of Green
Bay’s season started innocently enough. The Packers
were driving crisply down
the field on their opening
possession when Rodgers
hit Nelson on a little hitch
route. Nelson leapt to make
the catch and planted his
left leg while turning to
face Pittsburgh cornerback
Antwon Blake only to unexpectedly drop to his knees, a
potentially devastating blow
for the Packers and dynamic
playmaker who set career
highs in receptions (98) and
yards receiving (1,519) in
2014.
“I’m not going to get into
the ‘What if’ game,” Rodgers
said. “I don’t know what his
status will be. I’m just hoping for the best.”
So are the Steelers after
Pro Bowl center Maurkice
Pouncey exited in the first
quarter with a left ankle injury coach Mike Tomlin said
will likely require surgery.
Pouncey, who missed all of
2013 after tearing multiple
ligaments in his right knee
in the opener against Tennessee, is out indefinitely.
“He got rolled up on but
he walked it off,” Steelers
right tackler Marcus Gilbert
said. “I was hoping that it
wasn’t nothing too bad. Once
he got carted off, it struck
me.”
READY TO GO
While
Nelson
and
Pouncey are sidelined, Rodgers and Steelers quarterback
Ben Roethlisberger appear
ready to go.
Rodgers completed 4 of
5 passes for 57 yards during
two series of work, with one
drive ending with a touchdown run by Eddie Lacy and
the other with Rodgers getting sacked by James Har-
rison for a safety. Rodgers
banged his forearm on the
play and iced it afterward
but said he could have continued if it was the regular
season.
Lacy gave the Packers the lead four plays after
Nelson’s exit with a remarkably easy 7-yard touchdown
sprint through a massive
hole on the left side of the
line. A 2-point conversion by
James Starks — through an
equally massive hole on the
right side — put Green Bay
up 8-0.
“We’ve done some really good things the first two
weeks, but shoot, there’s a
lot of football still,” McCarthy said.
Roethlisberger finished
11 of 14 for 100 yards and
a score, though it took some
time to get going.
The Steelers struggled
in the first quarter — a 58yard touchdown pass from
Roethlisberger to Antonio
Brown was wiped out by an
offensive pass interference
penalty — but regrouped in
the second. Working out of
the hurry up offense, Roethlisberger led the Steelers 51
yards in seven plays, the last
one a little 5-yard flip to a
wide open Markus Wheaton
that put the Steelers up 9-8
before the reserves took over.
“We’ve done a ton of red
zone work and that’s one of
the plays we’ve been working on and we got the look we
wanted,” said Wheaton, who
added he’s never been that
open when the offense has
run that play during training camp.
QUARTERBACKS
Green Bay second-string
quarterback Scott Tolzien
completed 11 of 19 passes
for 102 yards and a 21-yard
score to Richard Rodgers
late in the first half.
Bruce Gradkowski’s preseason debut was brief. The
primary backup behind Roethlisberger spent the first
three weeks of training camp
on the physically unable to
perform list with a sore arm.
He connected on 3 of 5 passes for 12 yards before leaving
with a left finger injury.
Third-stringer Landry
Jones, trying to convince the
Steelers to keep him around,
tossed a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns to complete a
rally from a 10-point deficit.
OTHER INJURIES
Green Bay guard T.J.
Lang went out in the first
half to be monitored for a
concussion. Linebacker Adrian Hubbard and cornerback
Damarious Randall were
treated with IV fluids due to
dehydration.
Pittsburgh
defensive
lineman Stephon Tuitt injured his left ankle.

Blue Jays complete three-game sweep of Angels
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) —
Edwin Encarnacion went 4 for
4 with a homer and four RBIs,
and the Toronto Blue Jays completed a thunderous three-game
sweep of the Los Angeles Angels
on Sunday with a 12-5 victory
that vaulted them back into first
place in the AL East.
The Jays’ 16th victory in 19
games, coupled with the Yankees’ 4-3 loss to Cleveland, put
Toronto atop the division for the
first time since Aug. 13.
The Blue Jays, who lead the
majors by far with 670 runs, set
a franchise record for a threegame series with 36. They totaled 48 hits against a vanquished Angels pitching staff
that has surrendered 44 runs, 60
hits and 15 walks over their last
four games.
R.A. Dickey (8-10) won his
fifth straight decision over seven
starts, despite allowing five runs
and 11 hits in six innings.
The Angels’ Garrett Richards (12-10) was charged with
nine runs and 10 hits in five-plus
innings.
Indians 4, Yankees 3
NEW YORK (AP) — Francisco Lindor homered off Dellin
Betances in the eighth, Trevor
Bauer threw 6 1/3 strong innings
and CC Sabathia exited with an
injury as Cleveland beat New
York on Andy Pettitte Day in the
Bronx.
Carlos Santana homered off
Sabathia for the Indians, who
have won five of their last six
games at Yankee Stadium. Sabathia departed in the third inning with right knee pain.
Lindor’s homer, the rookie’s
second blast in two games, came
moments after Carlos Beltran
hit a game-tying double off reliever Bryan Shaw (2-2) in the
seventh.
Lindor became the first lefthanded batter to homer off Betances (6-3), who had faced 302
left-handed hitters without allowing a homer.
Cardinals 10, Padres 3
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Michael
Wacha pitched six solid innings
and Stephen Piscotty homered
twice and drove in five runs to
help St. Louis Cardinals avoided
a three-game sweep.
Jason Heyward had three
hits as St. Louis averted getting
swept for the first time this season.
Wacha (15-4) got his fourth
straight win, allowing one run
and four hits while striking out
three and walking two.
After being shut out on
Saturday night, the Cardinals
scored four in the first against
rookie Colin Rea, who was making his third major-league start.
Rea (2-1) struggled early and
made a throwing error in the
first that contributed to the
just one run and four hits while
striking out eight. He got the
spot start when the Mets decided to push back Harvey’s outing,
and he turned in a performance
worthy of New York’s strong rotation.
Michael Conforto had three
hits for the Mets, who have won
10 straight against Colorado
dating to 2014.
David Hale (3-5) threw a
pair of wild pitches while Anthony Recker was batting in the
second inning, both allowing a
run to score.
Twins 4, Orioles 3,
12 innings
BALTIMORE (AP) — Trevor
Plouffe hit a tying single with
two outs in the ninth inning and
Minnesota took advantage of two
errors in the 12th to complete a
four-game sweep.
Twins manager Paul Molitor
was ejected in the ninth for arguing a strikeout by Miguel Sano,
who tried to hold back his swing.
Plouffe followed with his hit, giving closer Zach Britton his third
blown save of the season.
All-Star
third
baseman
Manny Machado moved to shortstop for the first time in his major league career in the 12th and
misplayed a grounder by Eduardo Escobar, who slid in safely to
second. It was Machado’s second
error of the game. Third baseman Jimmy Paredes then could
not handle a sharp grounder by
Shane Robinson that allowed
Escobar to score.
Glen Perkins (2-4), who had
been dealing with a bulging disc
and hadn’t pitched since Aug.
17, picked up the win. Tommy
Milone got his first career save.
Brian Matusz (1-3) took the
loss.
Cubs 9, Braves 3
CHICAGO (AP) — Kris Bryant homered twice and Kyle
Schwarber connected an inning
after hitting a hard foul ball that
sent a fan to the hospital as Chicago handed Atlanta its seventh
straight loss.
The game was briefly delayed in the first inning after
Schwarber’s foul liner hit a female fan sitting just past the
camera well on the first base
side. The woman was carried
off on a stretcher and taken to
a hospital. The Cubs said the
woman was conscious.
Several fans around the majors have been hit this season,
and Major League Baseball has
said it is studying the issue of
crowd safety.
The Cubs hit five home runs,
including a leadoff shot by Dexter Fowler in the first inning
and a three-run drive by Miguel
Montero.
Jason Hammel (7-5) allowed
two runs in 6 1/3 innings.
Matt Wisler (5-4) gave up
Cardinals’ rally. He gave up five
runs — four earned — over four
innings.
San Diego made two errors
in the first inning and the Cardinals capitalized with three hits,
including Piscotty’s two-run triple.
Mariners 8, White Sox 6
SEATTLE (AP) — Robinson
Cano had a two-run homer and
Nelson Cruz doubled in two runs
to help Seattle avoid a threegame sweep.
Seattle built a 7-1 lead
through five innings, but the
White Sox cut it to 7-6 with five
runs in the sixth behind a pair of
two-run homers.
Adam Eaton singled with
one out in the sixth and scored
on Tyler Saladino’s double. Jose
Abreu followed with his 23rd
home run. After Melky Cabrera
grounded out, Avisail Garcia
singled, chasing starter Taijuan
Walker. Logan Kensing, called
up earlier in the day from TripleA Tacoma, relieved and allowed
a two-run homer to Adam LaRoche, his 12th.
The Mariners added a run in
the eighth on Ketel Marte’s sacrifice fly.
Walker (9-7) allowed five
runs on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings.
John Danks (6-11) was
tagged for seven runs on eight
hits in five innings.
Athletics 8, Rays 2
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) —
Eric Sogard hit a tiebreaking
two-run single as part of a seven-run seventh inning and Oakland withstood another blown
late lead by the bullpen to beat
Tampa Bay.
Mark Canha tripled and
drove in four runs while Billy
Burns added three hits for the
A’s, who won for just the third
time in 12 games.
The A’s went into the game
with the worst record in the AL
and managed only three hits
through the first six innings before matching their season high
with seven runs in one inning.
Stephen Vogt had two hits
as part of the seventh when
the Oakland sent 12 men to the
plate. Vogt was also thrown out
at home two batters before Sogard’s hit off Steve Geltz (2-5) put
the A’s ahead for good.
Fernando Rodriguez (3-1)
retired four batters for the win
after the Rays scored twice off
Sean Doolittle in the seventh.
Mets 5, Rockies 1
DENVER (AP) — Logan Verrett stepped into Matt Harvey’s
spot and earned his first major league win in his first start,
pitching eight impressive innings to lead New York.
After the NL East-leading
Mets posted two 14-9 wins at Coors Field, Verrett (1-0) allowed
Bryant’s two-run homer in the
first, Schwarber’s solo drive in
the second and Montero’s homer
in the third.
Astros 3, Dodgers 2,
10 innings
HOUSTON (AP) — Jason
Castro’s solo homer in the 10th
inning helped Houston complete
a three-game sweep.
There was one out in the
10th when Castro connected off
Chris Hatcher (1-5), launching a
96 mph fastball into the first row
of the seats in left field. The play
was reviewed and confirmed.
Kenley Jansen, who had converted 17 straight save opportunities, allowed a leadoff single
to rookie Carlos Correa in the
ninth before the Astros tied it up
on a two-out RBI single by Marwin Gonzalez.
Luke Gregerson (7-2) allowed one hit in a scoreless 10th
for the win.
The NL West-leading Dodgers were swept by the Astros for
the first time since May of 2008
and have dropped a season-high
five straight overall.
Royals 8, Red Sox 6
BOSTON (AP) — Mike
Moustakas’
two-run
double
capped a four-run ninth inning
that rallied AL Central-leading
Kansas City past Boston.
Moustakas also had a solo
homer and RBI double as the
Royals salvaged a split of the
four-game series.
Boston led 6-4 going into the
ninth. After left fielder Jackie
Bradley Jr. threw out Omar Infante trying for an inside-thepark homer for the first out,
Kansas City rallied with four
hits against Junichi Tazawa
(2-6), tying it on Eric Hosmer’s
two-run single. Moustakas hit a
bases-loaded double to right.
Chris Young (9-6) retired one
batter and Wade Davis got the
final three outs for his 11th save.
Nationals 9, Brewers 5
WASHINGTON (AP) — Anthony Rendon and Wilson Ramos homered, and Danny Espinosa hit a three-run double to
lead Washington.
Bryce Harper doubled twice
for the Nationals, who completed consecutive series victories
for the first time since winning
three straight in late June.
Jordan Zimmermann (10-8)
allowed four runs over 5 2/3 innings.
Matt Garza (6-14) gave up
seven runs over 4 2/3 innings
in his shortest outing since May
16. He allowed eight hits and
a career high-tying six walks
and raised his career ERA 7.17
against Washington in eight
starts.
Jonathan Lucroy, Scooter
Gennett and Khris Davis homered for Milwaukee.
Rangers 4, Tigers 2
DETROIT (AP) — Cole
Hamels threw six strong innings, and Mike Napoli and
Chris Gimenez homered to help
Texas hold onto the second AL
wild-card spot.
The Rangers, who have won
nine of their last 11 games, started the day with a half-game lead
over the Angels, with Baltimore
another half-game back.
Hamels (7-8) got the win,
allowing two runs on eight hits
and two walks. He struck out
two. Shawn Tolleson, the third
Rangers reliever, pitched the
ninth for his 25th save.
Matt Boyd (1-4) gave up
three runs on five hits and three
walks in six innings.
Mitch Moreland put Texas
ahead with a two-run double in
the sixth.
Adrian Beltre and Rangers
manager Jeff Banister were both
ejected in the fifth inning.
Diamondbacks 4, Reds 0
CINCINNATI (AP) — Chris
Anderson gave up five hits in 6
2/3 innings, and Welington Castillo and David Peralta homered
to help Arizona hand Cincinnati its season hight-tying ninth
straight loss.
The Diamondbacks completed their first four-game sweep
over the Reds.
Anderson (6-5) was optioned
to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday
and recalled on Thursday when
Jeremy Hellickson was put on
the disabled list. Relievers Addison Reed and Matt Reynolds
finished the shutout. Reynolds,
coming back from Tommy John
surgery, made his first big league
appearance since June 2013.
Raisel Iglesias (3-5) struck
out 13 in seven innings, the most
by a Reds rookie since Gary Nolan fanned 15 Giants in 1967.
P{hillies 2, Marlins 0
MIAMI (AP) — Rookie Aaron Nola pitched a career-high
eight innings and allowed only
one runner to advance beyond
first base, helping Philadelphia
beat Miami and tighten the race
for next year’s top draft pick.
By winning the final three
games in the four-game series,
the Phillies moved into a tie with
Miami for the worst record in the
majors (50-74). Philadelphia is
21-12 since the All-Star break.
Nola (4-1) allowed three
hits, walked two and struck out
six while throwing a career-high
100 pitches. The Phillies’ 2014
first-round draft choice lowered
his ERA to 3.59 and improved to
4-0 in his past six starts.
Marlins rookie Adam Conley (1-1) allowed one run while
pitching a career-high six innings. He walked four, but the
Phillies went 0 for 5 with runners in scoring position against
him.
Unanimous choice: Ohio State Logano defends Bristol victory
is No. 1 in AP preseason Top 25 to hold off Gibbs drivers
By Ralph D. Russo
AP College Football Writer
Ohio State is the first
unanimous preseason No. 1
in The Associated Press college football poll.
The defending national
champion Buckeyes received all 61 first-place votes
from the media panel in the
rankings released Sunday.
TCU is No. 2, followed
by Alabama, Baylor and
Michigan State.
The Buckeyes won the
first College Football Playoff championship last season and are trying to become the 12th team to win
consecutive AP titles since
the poll began in 1936.
Preseason
rankings
date back to 1950. Since
then no team had received
more than 97 percent of the
first-place votes in a preseason poll.
In 2013, Alabama,
which had won two straight
championships, received 58
of 60 first-place votes and
defending champion Florida
did the same in 2009. Neither finished the season No.
1.
The rest of this year’s
preseason top 10 is Auburn,
Oregon, Southern California, Georgia and Florida
State.
POLL POINTS
2 — The last two times
the Buckeyes opened the
season at No. 1 (1998 and
2006), they finished No. 2.
6 — Pac 12 has six
teams ranked in the preseason poll for the second
straight year.
8 — It is the eighth time
Ohio State is ranked No. 1
in preseason. Only Oklahoma has been rated the top
preseason team more times,
with 10.
8 — SEC has eight
teams ranked for the third
time, the most by any conference. SEC set the record
in 2011 and had eight teams
ranked last year.
10 — Ten times the preseason No. 1 has gone on to
win the national title. Only
twice, Florida State in 1999
and Southern California in
2004, has the top-ranked
team in the preseason poll
gone wire-to-wire as No. 1.
27 — Ohio State has appeared in the preseason poll
for 27 consecutive years, the
longest current streak and
the fourth longest all-time.
Oklahoma has the second
longest current streak at 16
years.
CLOSE AGAIN
You might have heard
that TCU and Baylor shared
the Big 12 championship
last year. It was sort of a
big deal. Well, the secondranked Horned Frogs and
No. 4 Bears are close again
and both have their best
preseason rankings.
— TCU’s previous best
preseason ranking was No.
6 in 2010.
— Baylor’s previous
best was No. 7 in 1957.
ROLLING
No. 3 Alabama is preseason top-five for the seventh consecutive season. It
is the third longest streak
of preseason top-five rankings in the history of the
poll. Florida State did it 11
straight times from 19902000 and Oklahoma had
eight straight preseason topfive rankings from 1974-81.
_SPARTY, YES!
No. 5 Michigan State
has its best preseason ranking since 1967 when it started No. 3.
RAISING ARIZONA
No. 22 Arizona is ranked
in the preseason for the first
time since 1999. The Wildcats and rival Arizona State,
ranked 15th, are both preseason ranked for just the
fifth time (1974, ‘89, ‘98 and
.99).
BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP)
— As Joey Logano circled
Bristol Motor Speedway,
he’d briefly glance in the
mirror to watch Kevin Harvick.
Logano had taken the
lead on a restart with 64
laps remaining, but Harvick was closing in by using
a completely different line.
Refusing to get rattled, Logano stuck to what worked
for him Saturday and won
the Bristol night race for
the second consecutive year.
“It was kind of interesting to watch it in the mirror,
I was watching him drive in
and I was like, ‘He’s going
to get me eventually,’” Logano said. “It’s so interesting how we ran such different lines and be the same
speed on the racetrack. We
both found what works for
us, and I really thought we

were going to be able to pull
away because I thought we
were really good in the long
run and then we didn’t pull
away.
“It was a very exciting
last 20, 30 laps for sure,
and neat to be able to get
a checkered flag again here
at Bristol.”
Logano has won on a
superspeedway in the Daytona 500, on the road course
at Watkins Glen and now
Bristol’s short track. He
has won twice this month
as he readies for the start
of the Chase for the Sprint
Cup championship.
There are two more
races before the playoffs
begin.
“We are hitting it at the
right time, that’s for sure,”
Logano said. “I feel like we
are right where we need
to be. I can’t wait for the
Chase to start.”
Logano led 176 laps,
second only to Joe Gibbs
Racing driver Kyle Busch,
who led a race-high 192
laps.
“Our team just executed,” Logano said. “That’s
what we did and that’s
what we do every week. We
just try to keep our heads
calm and cool and just run
our race.”

ANNIE’S MAILBOX®
COPYRIGHT 2001 CREATORS SINDICATE, INC.
Dear Annie: Years ago, I was
engaged to a man who I thought
was the love of my life. But at
college, he ghosted me -- leaving without an explanation. This
was horribly wounding and I
never recovered. I am still single,
though I haven’t stopped looking
for that special someone.
My ex-fiance eventually
married a woman who made no
demands on him, which suited
him just fine. They had a child
together. Now that he is middleaged, he has decided that he is
emotionally isolated and wants to
stay in constant contact with me.
He explained how he was abused
as a child, and I now realize that
his lifelong anxiety crippled him
and is what caused him to leave
me. He has also expressed deep
regret and apologized.
The chemistry with this old
flame is just as strong as ever.
My afternoons and evenings
are taken up by phone calls and
texts. He has dreams in which
we are constantly together, but
he never talks about a future for
us. He has told his wife that we
are “friends.”
This is driving me nuts. I
still care about him, and I know
that my presence in his life has
improved his situation. But I
don’t feel respected or romantically appreciated despite the
physical attraction.
I worry that if I break this
off, his life will take a turn for the
worse and I’d regret it. He says
he loves me, but it looks like it
will be years before anything
could happen between us. Since
I recognize that I’m caught in
an undertow of long, unrequited
love, could you throw me a rope?
-- Still Carrying the Torch
Dear Torch: You need to get
out of the water altogether. This
old flame is never going to leave
his wife. He’s kept you pining
for years, and now you are giving him additional power over
your future. Whatever emotional
needs he has, he should be confiding in his wife or a professional
therapist, and you should say so.
Start by cutting back on these
conversations. Answer him less
and less often, and then stop altogether. Keep your responses
neutral. This is not a romance.
It’s his midlife crisis.
Dear Annie: Ten months
ago, after 45 years of marriage,
I lost my wonderful wife. Since
then, one of my biggest heartbreaks is the fact that she did not
write down many of her self-developed recipes for foods I really
enjoyed.
When we were married, I
worked difficult hours, which
meant the only time we spent
together in relative peace was
during meals. She always made
a special effort to fix things that
she knew I liked. But no matter
how hard I try, I cannot duplicate
many of these dishes because she
made them from memory.
I would like to suggest that
whoever does most of the cooking in the family write down
such recipes for their spouse and
children. It would mean so much
for me to be able to fix the things
that we enjoyed together. -- Ron
from West Virginia
Dear Ron: Thank you for the
sweet suggestion. Recipes and
other family traditions that are
not written down or passed down
orally can be lost to close family members, friends and future
generations. What a shame that
would be.

CROSSWORD By Eugene Sheffer
For Tuesday, Aug. 25, 2015
ARIES
(March 21 to April 19)
Because it’s easy to make a
good impression on important people
today, use this planetary influence to
your advantage. When you’re holding
aces, play them.
TAURUS
(April 20 to May 20)
This is a great day to make
plans to travel or get further training
and education, because you are keen
to expand your world. You also want to
have fun while you’re doing it!
GEMINI
(May 21 to June 20)
Discussions about shared
property, inheritances and anything
that you own jointly with others (including debt) will go well today. In fact, you
have the upper hand.
CANCER
(June 21 to July 22)
Because the Moon today is
directly opposite your sign, you have
to be cooperative with others. Just be
prepared to go more than halfway. No
biggie.
LEO
(July 23 to Aug. 22)
You will be productive at work
today, because people will cooperate with you and open doors for you.
Ultimately, this will either boost your
income or secure your job.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
This is a playful, powerful day.
It’s a strong day for those of you in the
hospitality industry and the entertainment world. It also favors sports and
working with children.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
Family discussions, particularly
discussions with a female family member, will go well today. People expect
the best from each other and are prepared to offer the same in kind.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
A popular day! Enjoy the company of others, especially people in
groups. Today is the kind of day where
you can trust your Scorpio Spidey
sense.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)
This is a powerful day. Discussions with bosses and people in authority might indirectly or directly boost
your income. A special discussion
might land you a new job.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)
This is a strong day for you, because the Moon is in your sign making
good aspects to three other planets.
This makes you strong, focused and
fortunate!
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)
You might be low-key today.
However, whatever you do behind the
scenes will benefit something to do
with shared possessions or whatever
you own jointly with others.
PISCES
(Feb. 19 to March 20)
Friendships with others, especially with female acquaintances, are
warm and supportive today. All your
interactions with groups will be positive
and rewarding.
YOU BORN TODAY You are
physical, flamboyant and sexual.
People are amazed at your energy.
You also charm everyone. At times,
you are public; at other times, you are
private. This is the year you have been
waiting for. It’s a time of expansion and
great activity. Take advantage of opportunities. A major change might take
place, perhaps as significant as what
occurred around 2006. Go for it!
Birthdate of: Blake Lively, actress; Claudia Schiffer, supermodel;
Alexander Skarsgard, actor.
