Bunny Hop 5K exceeds monetary, attendance goals
By Becky Polaski
Staff Writer
The line of people making
their way down Vine Road on
Saturday morning was truly a
sight to behold. Taking up the
entire lane of the roadway, the
line spanned all the way from the
Benzinger Park entrance down
to Larch Road, where the column
of people made their first turn
on the route of this year’s Bunny
Hop 5K walk.
Taylor Frank, one of the
event organizers, estimated that
there were around 600 participants between the walk and run.
The walk got underway first at
11 a.m., while the run started at
12:30 p.m.
“Hands down, it was our biggest year yet,” Frank said.
She also indicated that walkPhoto by Becky Polaski

Hanes’ long race to raise awareness
By Becky Polaski
Staff Writer
Six years ago when the
Bunny Hop 5K walk/run began, Kristy Hanes decided to
run in the event to show support for Taylor Frank and her
family. Taylor and her sister,
Carly, had organized the walk/
run along with members of the
Paladino family in memory of
Becky Frank and Sue Ellen
Paladino, both of whom had lost
their lives to brain aneurysms.
The race was Hanes’ first 5K,
and participation in the event
was something she hoped to
continue each year.
“I thought it would be
kind of cool to start from the
beginning,” Hanes said. “I always supported it, but I never
thought that it would affect me
in the way that now I want to be
an advocate for brain aneurysm
awareness.”
Hanes had no way of knowing at the time that her life, too,
would be impacted by the loss
of someone close to her due to
a brain aneurysm. Her mother,
Aileen Hanes, died unexpect-
edly Sept. 9, 2015 from a brain
aneurysm.
Knowing what the Franks
had been through with the loss
of their own mother, Hanes
turned to Taylor when she
found out at her mother was being life-flighted to Pittsburgh.
“I texted Taylor. I knew that
she was in Pittsburgh and she
worked at UMPC. Luckily, I
got a hold of her, and she was
able to get to the hospital before I did. She was there to be

YORK (AP) — Hundreds of
mourners attended a memorial service for a retired police officer fatally
shot in a robbery attempt at a rural
toll plaza on the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
York city and police officials
were among the 300 to 400 people
attending the Saturday afternoon
service for retired York Officer Ronald Heist held at the York Expo Center’s Utz Arena.
Heist, 71, who worked for turnpike contractor Schaad Detective
Agency, and toll collector Danny
Crouse, 55, were killed March 20 at
the Fort Littleton exchange about 60
miles west of Harrisburg. Clarence
Briggs, 55, was then killed by troopers in an exchange of gunfire as he
was loading bags of money into the
trunk of his car. Briggs was a retired
Pennsylvania state trooper.
Police officers in and out of uniform filed into the arena, including
officers with police dogs. Heist was
a former dog training officer. He also
worked for the county parks department after retiring from the city police force in the 1990s, and several
park rangers were also among those
at the service.
After an invocation and prayer,
music from a pipe and drum corps and
speeches by several people, including
a retired officer who was a close friend,
officers were given a carnation to place
at the front of the auditorium.

Sacred Heart Parish held its annual Easter egg hunt on Saturday afternoon. Nice weather allowed the event to be held outside this year, and youngsters were each
given a specific color of eggs to collect from the hundreds scattered across the lawn outside the parish center.

Hopping down the bunny trail
A most distressing
accident, one that caused
the death of a promising young man, occurred
yesterday shortly before
noon, in what is known
as the Boston woods on
Eschbach Road. Hillary,
the 18-year-old son of Mr.
and Mrs. B. M. Dippold
of No. 438 South Michael
Street, was the victim in
the catastrophe and one
of his companions had a
very narrow escape from
a similar fate.
Hillary, in company
with three companions,
Clarence Friedl, Aloysious Rupprecht, and Clarence Krause left town
for a ramble at about 10
a.m. In the course of their
walk they came to the
coal mine recently opened
by P. J. Fleming. Young
Dippold was for exploring
the mine but the others
did not seem to be anxious to do so. However,
after some persuasion,
he induced young Rupprecht to accompany him
and together they walked
into the mines for a distance of several hundred
feet, when they found one
of the small cars used in
bringing the coal to the
surface. The boys decided
to ride back out into the
daylight and young Rupprecht mounted on the
front end while Hillary
gave the car a shove and
mounted on the rear end.
The car had attained a
pretty good speed when it
left the track and in doing
so struck a post supporting the roof. The impact
knocked the post over and
a large mass of shale and
ground fell upon young
Dippold, who, according
to appearances, was killed
almost instantly by having his life crushed out
by the heavy mass. Young
Rupprecht was thrown
from the car by its impact
with the post and to this
fact he probably owes his
life as the shale, while
covering his body, did not
reach to his head, which
was left free.
Rupprecht’s cry for
help attracted the other
two boys of the party and
they at once undertook
the work of rescue. While
Krause was working frantically to release Rupprecht from his precarious
position, Friedl ran for
help to some nearby houses and spread the alarm.
Hillary’s parents were apprised of the sad accident
by phone and a large rescuing party hastened to
the scene. It was nearly
2 p.m. when the lifeless
body was brought to the
parental home where it
was prepared for burial.
Deputy Coroner, Dr.
C. G. Wilson, was noticed
and after taking the testimony of the three companions of the dead youth,
decided that an inquest
was not necessary as it
was purely a case of accidental death.
Hillary was born January 20, 1898 and was 18
years of age at the time
of his untimely death. He
received a common school
education and after leaving school entered the employ of the Stackpole Carbon Co. At the time of his
death he was employed in
the machine shop department of the works and
was highly thought of by
those over him, as he was
keen and bright, and a
willing worker. With his
fellow workers and all
who knew him he was
very popular as he was
obliging and kind, with a
jovial turn of mind which
always insures popularity
for its owner. He was the
third son of Mr. and Mrs.
B. M. Dippold, for many
years the residents of
South Michael Street. Being of a mechanical turn
of mind, he constantly
engaged in home work in
his little workshop which
he installed a few years
ago. The deepest sympathy of the entire community goes out to his grief
stricken family in this,
their time of dire distress.
The funeral will be
held Thursday morning at
9 a.m. from the St. Mary’s
Church and interment
will be made in the St.
Mary’s Cemetery.
Where did all the
robins and bluebirds,
seen around the streets
and trees come from yesterday? They must have
dropped in on Saturday
night while everyone was
asleep, for on Saturday
only a comparative few
were visible, while yesterday every block had its
half dozen redbreasts and
bluebirds were seen all
over town. The robins look
fine this spring and seem
to have passed a pleasant winter. Their songs
reminded everyone that
spring is surely here, or
only a few days distant at
most, and it did smell like
spring yesterday, didn’t
it?

envolved by the State

Kirstie Wehler achieves
highest award in Girl Scouting
In Girl Scouting, young
girls are given the chance
to make their mark on the
community. The Bronze,
Silver, and Gold Awards
are the three major projects involved in scouting.
These awards demonstrate
leadership and hard work
through the completion of
different tasks and projects
within the troop and community.
Kirstie Wehler, of St.
Marys, was presented with
her Gold Award this past
summer. She is a 2015
graduate of Elk County
Catholic High School and
was a member of Troop
20828 since she was a
young Daisy scout. Wehler
was supported throughout her Gold Award efforts
by her parents, Dale and
Tammy Wehler; Cathy
Zimmerman; and several
other family members and
friends.
Wehler achieved her
Gold Award by working
with the Fox Township Ambulance. She updated the

While Hanes indicated that her mother was
never able to participate
in the Bunny Hop herself
due to commitments with
the Elk County Catholic High School softball
team, for which she was
an assistant coach, this
year Hanes, her father,
Carl, brother, Tony, and
numerous other relatives
all participated as Ween’s
Warriors. Ween, Hanes
explained, was a nickname her mother was given years ago while playing
softball, and it was something her friends called
her.
In addition to the family support, Hanes has
also been involved with
another fundraising venture for the Brain Aneurysm Foundation. New
at this year’s Bunny Hop,
used clothing and shoes
were being collected for
Goodwill, with that organization pledging to
donate 15 cents for every
pound collected to the
Brain Aneurysm Foundation.
A member of the Penn
State DuBois Lady Lions women’s basketball
team, Hanes noted that
it was her teammate
Lindsey Mizic who first
approached her with the
idea for the collection.
“She (Mizic) texted
me one day and asked if
it was OK if they took on
this project from Goodwill, and that Goodwill
would donate 15 cents per
pound and they could give
it to any charity that they
wanted. She said that the
Brain Aneurysm Foundation was what they wanted
to give it to. Of course that
was OK with me, so I just
did everything I could,”
Hanes said.
In addition to the collection at the Bunny Hop,
the collection will continue
at the Penn State DuBois
campus through the end
of April. Collection bins
are located on campus,
and anyone is permitted
to drop off items. Hanes
remarked that there has
been a good response so
far.
“Our goal is 10,000
pounds. We’ve already
collected some on campus
and there have been quite
a few donations today too,”
Hanes said.
Hanes’ teammates on
the Lady Lions have supported her and others as
well following her mother’s death. Among other
things, their warmups for
their 2015-2016 campaign
contained a special tribute
to Aileen.
“We always have our
numbers on our sleeves,
and on my warmup they
put a halo above my number,” Hanes said. “Then,
on everybody’s sleeve, they
had the breast cancer ribbon, because my mom was
diagnosed with breast cancer last summer, and they
had her initials on it. So I
had a special shirt for me,
but my whole team wore
my mom on their sleeve
when we played. They’ve
WASHINGTON (AP)
— Bernie Sanders scored
three wins in Western
caucus contests, giving
a powerful psychological
boost to his supporters
but doing little to move
him closer to securing the
Democratic nomination.
While results in Washington, Alaska and Hawaii barely dented Hillary
Clinton’s significant delegate lead, Sanders’ wins
on Saturday underscored
her persistent vulnerabilities within her own party,
particularly with young
voters and activists who
have been inspired by her
rival’s
unapologetically
liberal message.
In an interview with
The Associated Press,
Sanders cast his performance as part of a Western comeback, saying he
expects to close the delegate gap with Clinton as
the contest moves to the
more liberal northeastern states, including her
home state of New York.
He also said his campaign
is increasing its outreach
to superdelegates, the
party insiders who can
pick either candidate and
are overwhelmingly with
Clinton.
“The Deep South is
a very conservative part
of the country,” he said.
“Now that we’re heading
into a progressive part of
the country, we expect to
do much better.”
He added: “There is
a path to victory.” With
Clinton far in front, however, it is a difficult path.
Clinton
anticipated
the losses: She barely
campaigned in the three
states, making just one
day of stops in Washington state, and was spending the Easter weekend
with her family.
She is turning her focus to the April 19 contest
in New York, seeking to
win a large share of the
delegates at stake and to
avoid the blow of losing
to Sanders in a state she
represented in the Senate. She is trying to lock
up an even larger share
of delegates in five northeastern contests a week
later, hoping to deliver a
big enough haul to unify
the Democratic Party and
relegate Sanders to little
more than a protest candidate.
Sanders, who’s found
some success in the industrial Midwest, wants to leverage his working-class
support and fiery arguments against free trade
into an April 5 victory in
delegate-rich Wisconsin.
He also plans to compete
fiercely in New York and
is pushing for the party to
schedule a debate in the
state, saying in the interview that it would be “really absurd” if one did not
take place.

Her mother’s death
has been a life-changing
event for Hanes and her
family, and it has also led
her to learn a lot more
about brain aneurysms.
“It’s so unexpected,”
Hanes said. “People fear
cancer, but brain aneurysms are something to
really pay attention to

them. I think they say
that there are like 30,000

her, but now this part has
to keep her going, whatever I can do.”
In addition to supporting the Brain Aneurysm Foundation, Hanes
also has additional plans
in the works to keep her
mother’s memory alive.
“Through the Bavarian Hills Ladies Flower
League, I hope to have a
golf tournament in memory of my mom. I know that
there’s so many people
that are doing that. We’re
already putting a rock
there (at the golf course)
for her,” Hanes said. “I
also want to start her own
5K, like an Aileen Hanes
Memorial, and have it run
the route that she ran at
home in the woods and
around the different places. I’d set it up and follow
her log. She kept a log
when she ran, so I want
to follow that and put together her own race.”

said. “She ultimately took
us in to see my mom. She
was always around checking in and stuff, so it was
comforting to have somebody from home who understood the same story
and who I was comfortable with to be there with
us.”
Following her mother’s death, Hanes knew
that she wanted to become
more involved spreading
awareness about brain
aneurysms.
“If it were me, she
would have done everything she could to make
sure that somebody else
didn’t lose their daughter,” Hanes said. “I don’t
want anybody to lose
their mom or anybody in
their family. I want to be
a part of something that
can raise awareness for
something that devastated our family, and just try
to make sure that there’s
nobody else that has to go
through it.”
As part of that endeavor, this year she became even more involved
with the Bunny Hop. All
of the proceeds from the
event benefit the Brain
Aneurysm
Foundation.
According to the organization’s website, www.
bafound.org, the Brain

the nation’s premier nonprofit organization solely
dedicated to providing
critical awareness, education, support and research
funding to reduce the incidence of brain aneurysm

Guest Commentary
The Republicans:
Cowardice in High Places
Jeb Bush endorses Ted
Cruz. So do Marco Rubio
and Mitt Romney. Chris
Christie endorses—in
fact, practically fawns all
over—Donald Trump. Ben
Carson suddenly thinks
Trump would make a
great president, in agreement with Vladimir Putin
of all people. Paul Ryan
bemoans the sorry state of
his party’s campaign, but
refuses to name names
and implies he’ll endorse
whoever wins the nomination. The national chairman of the Republican
Party likewise indicates
unhappiness with the candidates, but says he’ll endorse whoever wins. John
Kasich appeals to reason,
but nobody is listening.
Who will he endorse when
he finally drops out?
These guys are cowards,
pure and simple. They
have no principles, no
scruples, only a skewed
sense of party loyalty that
communist party apparatchiks would surely
appreciate. Rather than
refuse to endorse either of
the two frontrunners, they
abide by a bizarre tradition of accepting their
fate, holding their noses,
and supporting candidates
they have called—and
who have called them—
every name in the book.
Sure, they say, Trump and
Cruz are “con artists,” bigots, bullies—but at least
they are our terrible people. And, oh yes, they’re
loyal conservatives.
Now I’m not so naïve
as to believe that the
endorsers really mean
what they say in support
of their suddenly wonderful candidate. Nor do I
believe the fence-sitters
like Paul Ryan when they
say (as Ryan did say) that
we need to “raise our gaze
and aim for a brighter
horizon.” All of them are
self-serving, jockeying for
position, probably with
an eye on winning or
keeping a job in the next
Republican administration. They are desperately
trying to show that even
though they have some
problem with Trump
and Cruz—hey, nobody’s
perfect—they have an
even bigger problem with
Hillary Clinton. So they
content themselves with
supporting the “lesser
evil,” or opting (like Ryan)
for neutrality.
Let’s not leave this sorry lot without also noting
that Trump and Cruz are
cowards too, though they
mask their insecurities
with bravado. They will
never acknowledge their
race- and gender-based
hatreds, their moral deficits, their constant lying,
or the real impact of their
policies (or what passes
for policies) on everything
from military strategy to
social programs and the
environment.
History will record that
when the Republican Party disintegrated, undone
by two demagogues who
represented depraved values and dangerous ideas,
no one in the party dared
to directly challenge and
repudiate them. Instead,
party leaders pretended
that the demagogues’
views might somehow be
toned down by wiser advisers or by the realities of
power. Now that’s naïveté!

Viewing Harrisburg
Ratings agencies see much not to like in Pa. budget
By Mark Scolforo
Associated Press Writer
HARRISBURG (AP)
— In the days after
Democratic Gov. Tom
Wolf finally put a stake in
the Pennsylvania budget
impasse that has captured
the Capitol for more than
a year, his office wasted no
time in publicizing three
analyses by financial firms
that delved into what
it means for the state's
future. The reviews were
anything but positive.
The administration
late this week highlighted
reports from Moody's Investors Service, Standard
& Poor's Ratings Services and PNC Financial
Services Group that each,
in different ways, found
much to criticize in how
Pennsylvania policymakers have been doing their
jobs.
Wolf has often spoken
about how the state's
borrowing costs are rising
because of its budgetary approach, and the
reports suggested more of
the same could be in the
works.
Moody's grudgingly
allowed that "the very act
of appropriating funds
for the commonwealth to
operate for a full fiscal
year represents an improvement," the faintest
of praise, before a warning
about what lies ahead for
the nation's sixth-largest
state.
"The approved budget
relies on nearly $1 billion
of one-time measures to
balance the budget, does
not include a pension
contribution at the fully
actuarially required level
and casts no light on the
government's ability to
reach compromise on its
long-term fiscal challenges," Moody's wrote.
The budget conclusion
"only brings to the fore a
likely new stalemate over
the budget ... and ongoing
questions over the state's
progress toward structural
balance."
S&P analysts said
the state's outlook is
"negative" in part because
lawmakers in the Republican-dominated General
Assembly "pushed difficult
financial decisions to the
fiscal 2017 budget," and its
deadline is currently just
a little over three months
ahead.
"The magnitude of the
projected budget gap,"
which the administration
estimates at $2 billion for
next year, "is not insurmountable, in our view,
and is not tied to tax base
fundamentals. Our negative outlook rather reflects
our view that he state's
fiscal issues lie in lack of
political will to solve them
in a timely manner," they
wrote.
If it continues to see
"weakened fiscal stewardship," S&P said it will
likely consider downgrading the state, but if
Pennsylvania does cut its
long-term structural deficit and improves financial
management, the state's
outlook could be improved
to "stable."
PNC said there are no
indications the state is
heading in the right direction.
"We do not expect the
budget to come close to
solving Pennsylvania's
fiscal pressures, including its structural budget
gap, which is sizeable
and growing," PNC said.
"Without broader policy
changes, Pennsylvania's
structural deficit will
worsen."
The budget impasse pitted Wolf, in his first year
as governor and holding
his first-ever elective office, against an increasingly conservative Republican
Legislature emboldened
after expanding their already considerable margins in both chambers.
Wolf's position has been
that for years, the GOP's
budgetary approach has
been short-sighted and
unrealistic, resulting in
underfunded schools and
an annual scramble to find
one-time sources of revenue to reach balance.
Republican leaders appear caught between members who feel that some
sort of revenue increase
may be necessary and
enough anti-tax sentiment
to create serious doubts
about whether there's any
tax plan that can get out of
their caucuses and into the
floor for votes, particularly
during an election year.
They have explored new
gambling revenues and
selling the liquor stores to
avoid broad-based taxes,
and Wolf has signaled
flexibility on the specific
mix of taxes, but even the
"framework" that fell
apart late last year had no
tax specifics.
Despite the rhetoric,
there's reason to believe
anti-tax intransigence
can change quickly — the
state's $2 billion-a-year
increase in gas taxes and
motorist fees supported by
the business community
was enacted in 2014 by
Republican Gov. Tom Corbett, at a time when both
legislative chambers held
solid GOP majorities.
Wolf's decision to let the
Republican-crafted budget
become law without his
signature this weekend
produced sighs of relief
throughout government.
For Pennsylvanians
watching from the sidelines, they've been more
like sighs of disgust.
Both the House and the
Senate will return to session April 4, and face a soft
deadline of June 30 to pass
a 2016-17 state budget.
What they'll produce is
anybody's guess.

Sister Kathleen Warner, OSB
Sister Kathleen Warner, OSB, 88, died Thursday, March 24, 2016, in
the 70th year of her religious life, at Mount Saint
Benedict Monastery in
Erie.
Born in Buffalo, N.Y.
and baptized Mary Lucille, Sister Kathleen was
the daughter of Floyd and
Mina (Langevin) Warner.
She entered the Benedictine Sisters of St.
Joseph Monastery, St.
Marys, on Sept. 5, 1944.
On Aug. 20, 1946, Sister Kathleen pronounced
her first vows; Oct. 22,
1949 marked the date of
her perpetual profession.
When it became clear
that St. Joseph Monastery would be closing as
a result of a climbing median age and lack of new
members, Sister Kathleen
moved to Erie on April 14,
2014. After prayer and
discernment she asked
to transfer her vows to
the Benedictine Sisters
of Erie. On Aug. 11, 2015,
Sister Kathleen was fully
incorporated into the Erie
Benedictine community.
Sister Kathleen held
a B.S. in education from
Villanova
University
and an M.A. in religious
studies from St. Charles
Seminary, Philadelphia.
From 1946 to 1995, Sister Kathleen was engaged
in the ministry of education, both elementary
and secondary teaching,
and administration as a
school principal. Teaching
was her passion and she
was especially grateful to
share her love of God with
her students. Over the
years she taught at Sacred Heart and St. Marys
Parochial, St. Marys; St.
Callistus, Kane; St. Joseph, Lucinda; St. Joseph,
Warren; St. Boniface,
Kersey; and St. Adalbert,
Pittsburgh. She was a
part-time teacher at Elk
County Christian High
School while serving her
community at St. Joseph
Monastery as Vocation,
Affiliate and Postulant
Directress before becoming a full-time English
and theology teacher at
Elk County for 15 years.
After serving as the community’s
sub-prioress
from 1995-1996, Sister
Kathleen retired from
teaching. From 1996-
1999, Sister Kathleen
served in pastoral ministry at St. Anthony’s Parish, Sheffield, as an RCIA
instructor and Religious
Education Coordinator. In
1999, she returned to the
monastery in St. Marys
and served in the ministry of hospitality, spirituality and formation. At
the time of her death, Sister Kathleen was engaged
in the ministry of prayer
and presence at Mount St.
Benedict.
She is survived by her
Erie Benedictine community, the sisters from
her community of origin
(St. Joseph Monastery,
St. Marys), good friends
Sabra and Joe Pasky and
Father Michael Ferrick,
as well as cousins, nieces
and nephews.
Sister Kathleen was
preceded in death by her
parents as well as her
siblings: her brother, Laverne Warner; her sisters,
Monica Huntz and Anita
Winters; and her step-sisters, Elizabeth (Philipps)
Young and Jean (Philipps)
Conklin.
A Mass of Christian
Burial for Sister Kathleen
Warner, OSB, will be held
Wednesday, March 30 at
5:30 p.m. at Mount Saint
Benedict Monastery.
Interment will be
Thursday, March 31 at
8:15 a.m. in Trinity Cemetery.
Services will take
place at Mount Saint
Benedict Monastery. Visitation will be held Tuesday, March 29 from 2-7
p.m. and Wednesday,
March 30 from 2-5 p.m.
Memorials may be
made to the Benedictine
Sisters of Erie, 6101 East
Lake Rd., Erie, Pa. 16511.

2 dead, venomous snakes
found in package at post office
WASHINGTON (AP)
— Two dead venomous
snakes were found in
a package in a western
Pennsylvania post office
earlier this month, federal
authorities said.
The box shipped from
the Philippines to the Beaver County post office was

more than 150 species of
pit vipers. Officials didn’t
reveal the exact kind of
snake, but said they believe the reptiles were
alive when they were put
in the box.
Additional
snakes
were found at the home
of the person to which the
box was addressed, Christ
said. He said he could
not say what the person
intended to do with the
snakes if they had arrived
alive. U.S. Fish and Wildlife authorities are investigating.
Mailing an animal is
a federal offense, and in
Pennsylvania, a permit is
required to buy a snake,
said Henry Kacprzyk, curator of reptiles at the
Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium.
“On a legal end, it’s not
something that is a moneymaker,” Kacprzyk said.
Kacprzyk also said
that bringing an exotic
snake from another country is dangerous, since
hospitals carry antivenom antidotes for venomous snakes common to the
United States but don’t
have antidotes for those
from other countries.

78-year-old has dropped the
price and is including CalNev-Ari’s casino, diner, convenience store, 10-room motel, RV park and mile-long

Commission of Fisheries,
at Harrisburg, has for its
object the creation of a
fishermen’s license based
on the same principles
and for much the same
objects as the hunter’s license. In a circular letter
issued to the sportsmen
of the state the Commission calls attention to
the increasing demands
upon the department to
secure its appropriations
from the general funds
of the state and which in
his opinion have a special
revenue for its object. The
number of fishermen has
greatly increased and is
constantly
increasing,
and the demand for food
fish is also growing says
an authority. A license for
fishermen, he contends, is
as much justified as is a
hunting license.

Railroad
has now completed all of
the line work on its new

miles of railway. In fact,
all of the special instruments have been installed
and the other apparatus
is now being tuned up
by the linemen ready for

All that was mortal
of the late Hillary Dippold, son of Mr. and Mrs.
B. M. Dippold, who met
an untimely end Sunday
morning by being crushed
to death in Fleming’s
mines, was consigned to
its last resting place in
the St. Mary’s Cemetery
this morning, following
a Requiem Mass which
was celebrated in the St.
Mary’s Church by Rev. Father Marinus, O.S.B. The
obsequies were attended
by a large concourse of
sorrowing relatives and
friends. His fellow employees of the Stackpole

young man was employed,
formed a guard of honor;
eight young ladies, Misses Josephine Imbodin,
Mary Rupprecht, Georgia

Mary

Marcella Schaut, Josepha Schaut, and Mary
Schaut, dressed in white
and wearing black coats,
carried a pall of black and

Carl Brehm, and Norman
Krause were of the young
man’s bosom companions
and carried some of the

that had been sent by sorrowing friends and a large
pillow from the Battery
Works.
The casket bearers
were: Clarence Krause,
Clarence Friedl, Alois
Rupprecht, George Arnold, Harry Schatz, and
Henry Loeffler.
Following the services
the remains were conveyed to the St. Mary’s
Cemetery where interment was made in the
Dippold burial plot.
The out of town people
in attendance at the funeral were: Mr. and Mrs.

Night has fallen, clouds have gathered,
Driving wind and seething rain,
Each integrate drop is searing
On the heart a distinct pain.
Smiling Spring morn has no splendor,
Skies serene seem dark and cold,
Promises of Summer flowers
Are too weak joy to enfold.
For today has been the saddest,
We have laid him down to rest,
Gave him back to Earth, his Mother,
As God willed, He loved him best.

According to reports
from the rural districts
the roads are in very bad
condition. The frost is
coming out of the ground
very fast and in many
places there are many
sink holes. Not only are
the country roads in bad
condition, but streets in
boroughs and townships
are very bad.
When this morning
broke bright and clear
and the sunshine filled
the air with warm breezes, it was evident on all
sides that spring has actually arrived. The birds
are singing sweetly, the
sap is running lively, the
pussywillows are beginning to show rapidly and
the snows of a week ago
have disappeared except
in a few secluded spots.
But the melting of
the snow has revealed
the need for a general
cleaning up in every section of the city. The winter’s accumulation of dirt
and filth is showing up
in a surprising amount
in back lots, streets and
alleys and even on front
lawns. Piles of ashes, cans
and debris are to be found
in every section of the city,
and every one of them is a
breeding place for disease
germs of every description, and for flies.
The crying need is for
cleanliness and it is not a
bit too early in the season
to commence that work.
The health of the city is at
stake.
The attention of every
reader to his own premises is called. If there is
dirt and rubbish or just
one small pile of refuse
lying around, it may be
the source of a considerable deterioration in the
city’s health and should
be looked after. And the
sooner the better, as it
will not give germs and
flies a chance to get their
start.
Eight persons, it
is said, will have to take
the Pasteur treatment
in Corry as the result of
a rampage of a mad dog
through the streets of
that place last week. The
dog’s head has been examined and the report from
Philadelphia is to the effect that it was “positive
as to rabies.” It is understood that the city health
officials will financially
assist the parents of a lad
named Sperry, who, it is
said, are not able to pay
for the treatment for the
boy bitten by the rabiesaffected dog. The serum
for the treatment of some
of the patients has been

Some of the local anglers who usually spend
the first day of open trout
season on nearby streams
are not very much elated
over the prospects for
good fishing the first few
days this spring. It is certain things look pretty
gloomy for April 15, the
opening day. The high water that prevails at present need not necessarily
dampen the spirit of the
anglers, but the fact that
more rain will fall to keep
the waters high is quite
certain.
There is some snow
on the mountains and ravines, which help to fill
the angler’s heart with
sorrow. A trout fisherman
knows how foolish it is to
attempt to lure the speckled beauties from the
streams while snow water is running into them
– it is a futile attempt. So
much for the conditions as
they appear to exist.
Other sportsmen who
are aware that their blood
is raised to the tingling
point at the approach
of the trout season and
who do not care what
the conditions are for a
good catch, will go about
making the necessary arrangements for a day’s
outing along their favorite
streams. They enjoy the
day whether they fill their
quota or not. This is the
spirit to have when one is
going to cast a fly – enjoy
the outing and obtain the
benefit of the mountain
air and don’t grumble
over poor luck.
Some local anglers
grumble over the fact that
our streams are getting
so bushy that it is almost
impossible to fish them.
Are they not wise to the
truth that the smaller the
amount of brush along a
35

stream the smaller the
chance that brook trout
will occupy its waters?
It is a fact that the water in a mountain stream
becomes too warm for
trout if it is not shaded
by brush and trees. Keep
the streams brushy and
you will always have
trout in them. If they
are not yet there they
will find their way there
from other streams. Keep
up your good spirits and
take things as they come
and you are bound to get
enough fish to “make the
pan smell” at any rate.
Many local anglers
have been busy the last
few days looking over
their flies and tackle and
getting everything in
readiness for the opening day, a little over two
weeks in the distance,
and it is a foregone conclusion that the days will
seem like weeks to them.
Spring seems well
begun. Mother earth has
stretched her legs out in
the warm sunshine and
ordered out her children
to take stock after the
winter’s wear and tear.
What is the report? Every
spot, even the most ideal,
needs attention. “Clean
up, Paint up, Fix up,”
while the spirit of spring
is here. Do not wait until “clean-up week.” Begin now and make plans
to clean up and beautify
your home or business
place.
If the homes in a
neighborhood
become
weather-beaten and shabby, value in the whole
neighborhood
deteriorates. But if some houseowner paints and beautifies his home, it radiates
its attractiveness in every
direction and soon the
whole neighborhood is
made bright and attractive.

Crosby nets OT winner, Penguins top Rangers 3-2
NEW
YORK
(AP)
— Sidney Crosby scored
on a deflection at 4:30 of
overtime and the surging
Pittsburgh Penguins beat
the New York Rangers 3-2
Sunday night in a potential first-round playoff preview.
Matt Cullen and Phil
Kessel also scored for the
Penguins, who have won
eight of nine. Marc-Andre
Fleury made 25 saves.
Eric Staal scored twice
for New York, which had
won three straight. Kevin
Hayes and Jesper Fast
assisted on both of Staal’s
goals. Henrik Lundqvist
stopped 29 shots.
Derick Brassard was
called for high-sticking
with 1.4 seconds left in
regulation to give Pittsburgh a power play in
the extra period. But the
Rangers killed it off before
Kris Letang’s wrist shot
from the point ricocheted
in off Crosby in front.
Staal entered with one
goal in 13 games with the
Rangers since joining the
team at the trade deadline
in a deal with Carolina. It
was his second multigoal
game of the season.
The Rangers took advantage of a Penguins
turnover to take a 2-1 lead
early in the second period.
Staal took a pass from Fast
and sent a loose puck past
Fleury at the right faceoff
circle at 2:07.
The Penguins tied it
again when Carl Hagelin
used his speed to chase
down a loose puck and put
a shot on Lundqvist. Kessel backhanded in the rebound for his 23rd goal of
the season at 8:36.
Kessel, who had a goal
and four assists in Saturday’s win over Detroit,
sent a shot off the crossbar
a couple of minutes later.
The Rangers opened
the scoring in the first period.
Hayes took the puck
up the left side and sent
a pass in front to Staal,
who fended off defenseman
Trevor Daley and deflected
the puck past Fleury at
4:19.
The Penguins tied it
late in the period.
Derrick Pouliot took a
pass from Daley at the left
faceoff circle and shot from
the point. Cullen tipped the
rebound past Lundqvist at
15:49. It was Cullen’s 13th
goal of the season.
Hurricanes 3,

Richardson,
Syracuse rally for
spot in Final Four
CHICAGO (AP) —
Malachi Richardson and
Syracuse scrapped and
fought their way from the
bubble to the Final Four.
Richardson scored 21 of
his 23 points in the second
half, and Syracuse extended its improbable run with
a 68-62 victory over topseeded Virginia on Sunday.
The
Orange
were
among the last teams to
get into the NCAA Tournament after a rough closing
stretch, but slipped in as a
10 seed before storming to
its first Final Four since
2013 and No. 6 overall. It
comes at the end of a challenging season for coach
Jim Boeheim, who was
suspended for nine games
as the result of an NCAA
investigation.
“It was a whole team
effort and these guys really
deserve it,” Boeheim said.
“We beat a great basketball team. I’ve never been
prouder in all my 40 years
as coach of a basketball
team as I am of this team
tonight.”
Syracuse
(23-13),
which trailed by 16 at the
start of the second half, becomes the first 10 seed to
make it to the Final Four
and just the fourth doubledigit seed to accomplish the
feat. It’s the lowest seeded
team to reach the national
semifinals since VCU in
2011, according to STATS.
Michael Gbinije and
freshman Tyler Lydon each
scored 11 points for the Orange, who will face the winner of the East Regional
final between North Caro-
lina and Notre Dame on
Saturday in Houston. Tyler
Roberson finished with 10
points and eight rebounds.
“We worked so hard,”
Gbinije said. “We’ve been
through a lot.”
London
Perrantes
scored 15 of his 18 points
in the first half for Virginia (29-8), which blew a
16-point lead in the second
half. Malcolm Brogdon, the
ACC player of the year, had
12 points on 2-of-14 shooting in the final game of his
Cavaliers career.
Syracuse trailed 54-39
before it ripped off 25 of the
next 29 points, including 15
in a row. And Richardson
led the way, often taking
the ball right at Brogdon.
Richardson’s
driving
layup made it 59-58 Orange with 5:47 remaining
for their first lead since
early in the first half. After
Perrantes missed a long 3,
Richardson connected from
deep and smiled as he ran
up the court while making
circles around his eyes with
his hands.
“I started slow, I had a
couple of bad turnovers and
Coach got on me at halftime,” Richardson said. “I
knew I had to pick it up for
my teammates. We were
down, and I just wanted to
come back and we did it.”
The confident freshman, who scored 21 points
in Syracuse’s first-round
win against Dayton, added
another layup for his seventh straight point before
Anthony Gill stopped Virginia’s drought with a basket inside.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP)
— Victor Rask came up
big for the Carolina Hurricanes as they continue
their desperate push for a
playoff berth.
Rask scored twice for
the first multigoal game of
his career, reaching 20 in a
season for the first time as
the Carolina Hurricanes
beat the New Jersey Devils
3-2 on Sunday.
Carolina is within four
points of a playoff spot with
six games left, but Philadelphia has two games in
hand and Detroit one.
“I look at it as three of
four points this weekend,”
said Hurricanes coach Bill
Peters, whose team lost
to the visiting New York
Islanders 4-3 in overtime
Saturday night. “We have
a really good record with
our back-to-backs. That’s
some resiliency and pride
in these guys. We show up
and compete. We started
on time tonight, which was
encouraging.”
Rask, in his second
NHL season, has scored in
three straight games. He
ended the Hurricanes’ skid
of six consecutive games
without a power-play goal
when he connected in the
first period. He scored his
20th early in the second to
make it 3-0.
Ron Hainsey scored the
other Carolina goal, and
Cam Ward made 23 saves.
Bobby Farnham and
Travis Zajac had the goals
for New Jersey. Devils goalie Scott Wedgewood, playing his fourth NHL game,
stopped 20 shots.
The victory gave the
Hurricanes a 3-2 win in the
season series. Each of the
four previous games also
was decided in regulation,
with both teams losing
once at home.
The contest was New
Jersey’s last against a Metropolitan Division opponent with six games left in
the season.
Carolina led 2-0 after
outshooting the Devils 14-3
in the first. There were 22
minutes of penalties handed out in the period, 15
against New Jersey.
“I don’t think many
of them were good penalties on our part, and a lot
of times that’s what happens,” New Jersey coach
John Hynes said. “You have
some penalties like that

College baseball roundup
Bonnies drop series
to VCU
VCU defeated St.
Bonaventure 3-2 in 12
innings on Saturday afternoon and then 4-1 on
Sunday to sweep the series against the Bonnies.
In Saturday’s game,
the Rams started the
12th inning with a bloop
single to center field by
Haiden Lamb which fell
between Taishi Terashima racing in from center
and Cole Peterson (Johnsonburg/Johnsonburg) going out from shortstop. A
sacrifice bunt then moved
Lamb to second. Lamb
was breaking from second
on the next pitch to Brody
Cook and he would score
standing up on Cook’s single to center field, breaking a tie that had stood
since the second inning.
St. Bonaventure led
early, scoring twice in the
second. David Vaccaro led
off with a single to center
and moved to second on
a one-out walk to Tommy
LaCongo. With two away
and the bases loaded following a walk to Terashima, Peterson delivered a
single to center to score
both Vaccaro and LaCongo. Thad Johnson then followed by lacing a single to
right, but Terashima was
thrown out at the plate
attempting to score from
second to end the inning.
The lead would be
short-lived as VCU evened
things in the home half of
the inning. With runners
at second and third and
two outs, the Rams scored
a run on a wild pitch and
the runner from second
would score as well on

Syracuse women
beat Lady Vols 89-67,
head to 1st Final Four
SIOUX FALLS, S.D.
(AP) — Alexis Peterson
ran to midcourt at the final buzzer, dropped to her
knees and buried her face
in her hands. She cried
tears of joy as her Syracuse teammates swarmed
her.
The Orange are going
to the women’s Final Four
for the first time, and Peterson is the one leading
the way to Indianapolis
after an 89-67 victory over
Tennessee on Sunday in
the Sioux Falls Regional
final.
“We have all worked
relentlessly to get to this
point,” she said. “I was
overcome with emotion.”
Peterson scored a
season-high 29 points in a
performance that earned
her Most Outstanding
Player of the regional and
followed a 26-point night
in an upset of top-seeded
South Carolina on Friday.
“She’s a special kid.
She’s competing. It’s her
time to shine,” Tennessee
coach Holly Warlick said.
“She stepped up and made
things happen. She ran
her basketball team. She
kind of put them on her
back and said, ‘We’re not
going to be defeated.’ “
The fourth-seeded Orange (29-7) will play No. 7
seed Washington in a national semifinal next Sunday in Indianapolis.
“We did what we had
to do,” Syracuse coach
Quentin Hillsman said.
“We knew we had to control the paint, and we
did a good job of that. We
knew we had to make 3s,
and to be 14 for 30 behind
the arc is really knocking
down shots. That was the
key to the game.”
Brianna Butler hit
three straight 3-pointers early in the fourth
quarter to break open the
game and finished with 18
points. She made a total of
10 3s in the regional.
“Every time she faces
the basket, I think it’s
going to go in,” Hillsman
said. “She’s the best shooter in college basketball
right now, and she proved
it in this tournament.”
The Orange also got a
huge lift from reserve Cornelia Fondren. She made
all six of her shots and
had 13 points as Syracuse
rolled to its 15th victory in
16 games.
Diamond DeShields
scored 20 points and had
10 rebounds to lead the
Lady Vols (22-14) in the
loss that finished their
surprise NCAA run. They
came into the tournament
after a 13-loss regular
season that was the worst
in program history, and
their No. 7 seed was their
lowest ever.
“As much as we want
to be proud of how far
we’ve come, based on
the season we had, we
could have gone farther,”
DeShields said. “We know
that. I think that’s what
hurts the most. So our
season got cut short, we
all feel like. So we’re not
happy about that. Never
happy about losing. We
never will be. This is a
program full of winners.
Winning is what we do.
That’s always going to be
the goal.”
Peterson has scored
20 or more in each of the
Orange’s four tournament
games. She played with
a sore hip and was 11 for
20 from the field, 3 for 4
from 3-point range. She
also had six assists and
three steals. After she got
up from the pile of celebrating teammates, she
flashed a No. 1 with her
right finger as she embraced Brittney Sykes.
Butler’s back-to-back
3-pointers gave the Orange a double-digit lead
after the Lady Vols pulled
to 63-59 early in the
fourth quarter. Syracuse
was up 12 after Peterson’s jumper that followed
DeShields’ offensive foul,
and the bulge eventually
grew to 23.
Jaime Nared added
14 points for Tennessee,
which committed 21 turnovers against the Orange’s
pressure 2-3 zone defense.
The Orange converted
those turnovers into 25
points.
“Our toughness determines our destiny,” Butler said, “and so far our
toughness has gotten us
here.”

As we impatiently
wait for spring gobbler
season to begin, I fondly
recall some very memorable hunts from the past.
I must admit I am not
an ardent gobbler hunter.
The desire has come and
gone for me over the
years, some due to responsibilities and obligations of work and beagles.
My first memorable
hunt was more than
three decades ago. My
grandfather, dad and I
ventured out to an area
known to locals as Hickory Kingdom in northern
Clearfield County near
Penfield.
My grandfather, Clarence Bochert, grew up in
the Great Depression era
of the 1930s and hunting
then meant a lot more
than just sport. But he
also enjoyed the outdoors.
But he was all business
when it came to hunting
deer, a little less so with
turkeys.
For my dad, Tim, his
perspective was different.
He enjoyed the outdoors
first and bringing home
game didn’t rank very
high.
So, it is somewhere in
between those two that
I am in terms of hunting. One thing I know for
sure, if you truly enjoy
the outdoors and aren’t
just out for the kill, your
hunting adventures will
never be failures.
Getting back to that
first hunt, we walked
across a field and entered
the woods. The area was,
and still is, populated by
large oak trees. Dad sat
up against one while my
grandfather and I sat at
another at the top edge of
a big hollow. I had turned
12 a little more than a
month before and it was
the first time I could
carry a gun in the woods
during a hunting season
so my anticipation was
very high.
It’s hard to believe
how different gobbler
hunting was then as it is
now.
We wore basic army
surplus camouflage jackets, brown canvas brush
pants and our hats were
the reversible type that
you could peel back to
reveal orange. They were
Walk on the Wildside

columnist
soft, easy to wear and the
orange/camo component
made them pretty useful
for turkey hunting. The
camo patterns that existed then were basic and
few in variety. It’s almost
mind-boggling what exists out there now.
Despite the fact that
there were far fewer
spring gobbler hunters
then, it didn’t hurt to be
safety conscious. At the
time, the spring season
had only been re-opened
for 13 years. Believe it
or not, spring gobbler
hunting was illegal in
Pennsylvania from 1873
to 1968. That, along with
the restriction to only
harvest bearded birds
after the season was reinstated, helped turkey
populations rebound.
My grandfather
yelped a few times on
his slate call. It was a D.
Boone slate with a corncob striker. It was a far
cry from some of the pot
calls that exist today, but
it did and still does make
pretty darn good turkey
sounds.
A gobbler responded
from below us. I had a
box call that Granddad
had made for me, but
he did the calling that
morning. The gobbler
answered when he called,
but it never came closer
than it was when we first
heard it. It was content to
gobble but do more as it
had a harem of hens with
it. I didn’t completely recognize what was happening at the time, but those
hens were quietly purring
and clucking and there
was no way that gobbler
was leaving them for us!
After enjoying the
sounds of the birds for
awhile, we got up and
exited the area quietly as
we didn’t want to spook
the birds, even though we
couldn’t see them.
Although the sound
of the gobbler was intoxicating, I didn’t do much
spring turkey hunting
after that. A little more
than a few years later,
Granddad died of a heart
attack and trout and bass
fishing took up more time,
along with other things.
But once I finished
college and started working nights, I had more
chances to hunt gobblers.
Then, in the early
1990s, I hunted many
different areas in Elk,
Clearfield and Jefferson
counties.
One of my favorite
spots was near the Boy
Scout Camp Mountain
Run, which was surrounded by a chunk of the
Moshannon State Forest.
It wasn’t hard to
find gobblers willing to
sound off, sometimes with
no provocation. I tried
various areas, selecting
the ones where I saw
less hunting activity. It
didn’t hurt that I had the
chance to hunt weekdays
when there were less
people out.
One morning, I was
out early, but the first few
hours were quiet.
I moved to another
spot. There, if you are
willing to walk a bit,
access is relatively easy
with old logging roads
and natural gas pipelines. I had walked up a
pipeline a half-mile or so
just to listen. Even then,
I didn’t believe in calling
much to locate birds. I
was willing to let them
give their location away
well before I was.
And lo and behold, a
gobbler sounded off. He
was behind me and across
the hollow from where I
stood. I believed he was
a good distance from me,
so I scrambled down the
laurel-covered hillside
until I crossed a small
stream.
At that point, he was
making a real racket, but
I crept closer and stayed
quiet. He was still above
me and I got as close as I
thought I could get away
with. There were grapevine tangles all around
me and that allowed me
to get as far as I did. I set
up and pulled my headnet
down to conceal my face.
At that point, I called
softly and he wasted no
time in gobbling back.
It didn’t seem to matter
what I did, he kept gobbling and getting closer
and closer. I was sitting in
a small depression in the
ground and facing uphill.
I sat my piece of slate
beside me and just ran
the striker a few times.
As hot as he was, I didn’t
need to do much and the
anticipation of seeing him
was getting unbearable.
Then, there he was.
Gobbling his head off,
parading in front me, going from right to left, and
back again and again!
His head was bloody red
and his beard dangled
from his chest and swung
back and forth. He never
fanned out during the
display, but it was the
show of shows and I was
entranced.
After what seemed
like several minutes of
this, but was probably
just a few, I thought it
was time to see if I could
tie my tag to him.
I had the gun propped
up on my knees with the
butt of the stock against
my shoulder. All I had to
do was shift it a bit to the
right to get a good bead
on him. But as I did, he
just vanished.
Just like that, the
show was over and it was
hard to believe. Then, I
hunted with a Mossberg
20-gauge shotgun, but I
hadn’t even bothered to
put camo tape on the gun.
When I slowly slid the
gun to take a shot, I’m
sure the sun glinted off
the barrel and spooked
him.
Needless to say, the
next day I was off to
the gun shop to trade in
the gun for a fully camouflaged model and in
12-gauge as well.
It was the first time
I had called in a bird on
my own and still the most
memorable.
Until the youth hunt
April 23 and the first
official day of the monthlong season, we can all
day-dream of past hunts
and plan to make more
memories

Day gets the No. 1 ranking and the Match Play title
AUSTIN, Texas (AP)
— Everyone around him
was telling Jason Day
to withdraw from the
Dell Match Play and not
risk further injury to his
back.
Day knew he was
playing well enough to
win and wanted to stick
it out.
The decision paid off
in more ways than he
could imagine.
Day returned to No.
1 in the world by making it to Sunday. It felt
even sweeter when he
beat Rory McIlroy in an
epic semifinal, and then
beat Louis Oosthuizen in
a championship match so
one-sided that it might
as well have been a victory lap around Austin
Country Club.
“I’m glad I didn’t listen,” Day said. “I wanted
to win. I wanted to win so
bad that I felt with how
I was playing, if I kept
playing the way I was
going, I would be holding the trophy at the end
of the week. And that’s
what kept me going.”
He’s taking that confidence to Augusta National next week to start
preparations for the Masters, which starts April
7. Coming off a victory
last week in the Arnold
Palmer Invitational, the
28-year-old Australian
has won six times in his
last 13 starts dating to
the PGA Championship.
“It’s been a memorable week, not only to win
the Dell Match Play but
to get back to No. 1 in the
world,” Day said.
Day pulled ahead
with a 10-foot birdie putt
on the par-3 fourth hole,
stretched his lead to 3 up
at the turn and was relentless with his power
and short game the rest
of the way. He closed out
Oosthuizen with a wedge
to 3 feet for a conceded
birdie on the 14th hole
and a 5-and-4 victory. It
was the largest margin
for the championship
match since it changed
to 18 holes in 2011. Tiger Woods beat Stewart
Cink, 8 and 7, in 2008 at
Dove Mountain in a 36hole match.
Oosthuizen,
who
knocked out Jordan Spieth in the fourth round
to pave the way for Day’s
return to No. 1, won the
opening hole with a par
in the championship
match and that was it.
His only birdie was an
8-foot putt on No. 5 after Day had stuffed his
wedge from the rough
into 2 feet.
“A top player these
days, he always makes
that crucial putt when
he needs to,” Oosthuizen
said. “We’ve seen a thousand times through Tiger doing it. Jordan does
it all the time. And Jason, whenever he needs
to make a crucial putt,
he makes it. You see him
this morning against Rory
when he made that putt
on 18.
“He’s always been
a great iron player,” he
said. “He’s always been a
great long iron player, and
the way he’s putting now
there’s a reason why he’s
No. 1 in the world.”
Day joined Woods and
Geoff Ogilvy as the only
multiple winners of the
Match Play.
None of this looked
possible when he winced
and grabbed his back on
the final hole he played
in his 3-and-2 victory
over Graeme McDowell
on Wednesday. His caddie
and coach, Colin Swatton,
was standing near the
tunnel leading to the first
tee about 10 minutes before the match.
“I’m not sure we’re going yet,” Swatton said.
Day had therapy for
an hour before and after
each match. His back got
progressively better, and
so did his game. He played
only 101 holes over seven
matches — one match was
six holes when Paul Casey
withdrew Friday with a
stomach ailment — and
only had one match go the
distance.
Rafa Cabrera Bello of
Spain, who lost to Oosthuizen in the other semifinal, won the last three
holes to beat McIlroy in
the consolation match.
The real consolation for
the Spaniard was moving into the top 50 in the
world ranking to earn a
trip to the Masters for the
first time.
Day might have won
this tournament in the
morning.
His semifinal match
with McIlroy lived up
to the hype. The lead
changed seven times.
They combined for 11
birdies in chilly, blustery
conditions.
“I think the morning’s round was probably
one of the hardest rounds
I’ve had to go through in
match play format to try
and get through,” Day
said.
The match turned on
the 11th hole when Day
got up-and-down for par
with a 12-foot putt, while
McIlroy missed a 6-foot
birdie. Day got up-anddown eight times in his
match against McIlroy.
On the par-5 12th, McIlroy was first to hit and
played well right of the
green, away from the water. Day took on the hazard with a 2-iron that
cleared the water by a
foot and set up a two-putt
birdie that gave him the
lead for good.
He was 1 up going to
the 18th, with thousands
of fans rushing ahead to
get a view. Day chipped
away from the flag to
ride the slope, hit it too
hard and had a 12-foot
putt for par. McIlroy was
6 feet away for par, hopeful of extra hole, until Day
poured it in right in the
middle.
“I knew if I could give
myself a putt, I’d hole it,”
Day said.
He got up-and-down
all eight times against
McIlroy, and four out of
five times in the afternoon
against Oosthuizen. Because that’s what No. 1
players do.

State Department: 2 more Americans are Brussels victims
By Merrill Hartson
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP)
— Two more Americans
have been identified as
killed in the attacks on
Brussels, the State Department confirmed Sunday,
bringing to four the total
number of U.S. citizens
confirmed as victims.
The State Department
said, “We express our deepest condolences” to those
who lost loved ones in the
attack, but declined to
identify them publicly.
Officials have said previously that at least a dozen Americans were injured
in the attack last Tuesday.
Earlier Sunday, the
White House said that
President Barack Obama
telephoned the parents of
an American couple identified as among the dead in
last week’s attacks.
The White House said
Obama offered his condo-
lences and praised Justin
and Stephanie Shults as
epitomizing all that was
good about America.
Justin Shults was
originally from Gatlinburg,
Tennessee, and his wife,
Stephanie, was a native
of Lexington, Kentucky.
They graduated together
from Vanderbilt University’s Owen Graduate
School of Management. A
family member says they
were dropping Stephanie’s mother off at the airport and were watching
her walk through security
when the bombs went off.
The White House said
the president also assured
their parents that the
thoughts, prayers and resolve of the nation are with
them at this difficult time.
Thirty-one people were
killed and 270 injured in
the attacks Tuesday at
the Brussels airport and a
train station.
His bar is even higher
when the party officials
are considered. He needs
to win more than 67 percent of the remaining delegates overall — from primaries, caucuses and the
ranks of uncommitted superdelegates — to prevail.
He did not emerge
from his Saturday sweep
with significantly more
delegates, winning 55 delegates to Clinton’s 20 for
the day after his victories
in Alaska, Washington and
Hawaii. More are likely to
be allocated to Sanders in
several weeks, when the
Washington state Democratic
Party
releases
vote shares by district.
Sixty-seven delegates are
awarded based on results
in the state’s congressional districts.
But there’s little question that Sanders has
tapped into a powerful
frustration within the
party. He continues to attract tens of thousands
to his rallies and has collected more than $140 million from 4.7 million donations.
Most of his 15 primaryseason wins have been in
states with largely white
populations and in caucus contests, which tend
to attract the most active
liberal Democrats. He’s
heavily favored by younger voters, who were a key
part of the coalition that
twice boosted President
Barack Obama to victory.
Clinton’s ability to win the
White House, should she
capture the nomination,
will hinge on how well she
can motivate his passionate — and politically active — supporters.
In Spokane, Washington, a huge line of caucus
attendees — largely Sanders backers — snaked
around a high school parking lot Saturday morning.
“I think one of the
biggest things is free tuition for students,” said
Savannah Dills, 24, a college student who supports
Sanders. “And getting big
money out of politics. He’s
not paid for by billionaires.”
Retiree Dan McLay,
64, attended the caucus in
a hard-hat, which he joked
he needed because he was
one of the relatively few
Clinton supporters in the
big crowd.
“Look at this thing in
Brussels,” McLay said,
referring to the deadly attack in Belgium this week.
“We need a real experienced leader.”
It was strong support
for Sanders that brought
Kirsa
Hughes-Skandijs
out to her first caucus in
Juneau, Alaska.
“This is the first time
I’ve ever felt that kind of
belief in a candidate, that
they mean what they say
and that they are not saying what they think people
want to hear,” she said.
Lead
After Sanders’ three
wins on Saturday, Clinton held a delegate lead of
1,243 to 975 over Sanders,
according to an Associated
Press analysis, an advantage that expands to 1,712
to 1,004 once the superdelegates are included. It
takes 2,383 delegates to
win.
Based on the AP
count, Sanders needs to
win more than 57 percent
of the remaining delegates
from primaries and caucuses to have a majority of
those delegates by June’s
end.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX®
COPYRIGHT 2001 CREATORS SINDICATE, INC.
Dear Annie: I adopted two older children from different orphanages and now
they are grown adults. They both suffered
deprivation and abuse in their early childhood years, but overall seem to be achieving more than expected.
My older child, “Rose,” married a
man with a gambling addiction and an
attraction for young children. Rose has a
new baby and apparently wants to keep
the baby’s father in the picture at all costs.
She goes along with whatever he says and
rationalizes their behavior as acceptable
and normal. I strongly suspect they deal
in child pornography to supplement their
income, as this has been a problem in the
past.
My youngest daughter, “Meg,” has a
10-year-old daughter who was molested by
these two when she was 5 years old. The
family decided never to allow the child to
be alone with Rose and her husband, and
told them why. Meg reported the incident
to the police and someone contacted child
protective services. Unfortunately, the facts
of the case got mixed up and Meg was
found guilty of failing to protect her daughter, while the perpetrators were never even
interviewed. Rose and her husband moved
out of state.
Meg went back to school and is finally getting her college degree, but she is
panicked about finding a job. She is talking
about moving near Rose. My granddaughter doesn’t remember the earlier abuse
and seems excited to be with her new
cousin. Meg says she wants to be closer to
her sister, and promises never to leave her
daughter unsupervised.
I worry constantly about the new
baby’s safety and what could happen to
Meg’s daughter. Meg is planning a visit
soon, and I’m sure they’ll be staying with
Rose while she looks for nearby housing.
How can I protect my granddaughter if she
moves out of state? -- Frightened Grandma
Dear Grandma: This situation is
reprehensible. Surely, Meg can find a job
in another city just as easily as she can
in Rose’s area. We wonder why she is so
determined to go there, knowing the risks.
If Meg moves to Rose’s town and stays in
her home, report the situation to their local child protective services. You can do
so anonymously. They will investigate the
home and determine what’s going on. And
if there is any chance they may be abusing
the baby, call child protective services immediately.
Dear Annie: You’re good about passing along wisdom from readers. Several
weeks ago, my husband and I participated
in a bike ride that included 8,000 other
people. It didn’t take long for us to get separated. Near the end of the ride, someone
ran into me and down I went. Numerous
volunteers helped me get up, checked my
bike and bandaged my wounds. But then
one asked if I had a cellphone. I said yes,
and that it was in the backpack -- the one
my husband carried. In fact, every necessary item was in his backpack.
It occurred to me that my husband
always carried our backpack. We’d never
been separated before, so there had never
been a need to change the arrangement.
I now make sure to have the basics in my
own fanny pack, just in case. -- Oregon
Dear Oregon: Thank goodness for
the wonderful volunteers, and thank you
for the reminder. When cycling, one should
always have a cellphone, ID, a bit of cash,
a list of medications and allergies and
bottled water.

The
Goals
ers outnumbered runners
roughly 2-1 this year.
The Bunny Hop got
its start six years ago as
a way to remember those
who have lost their lives
to brain aneurysms. It
was started by the Frank
and Paladino families as
a way to spread awareness and remember Becky
Frank and Sue Ellen
Paladino. Over the years,
the list of names of those
remembered during the
event has continued to
grow, but so has support
for the event.
According to Frank,
this year the Bunny Hop
also raised more money
than ever before. All proceeds from the event benefit the Brain Aneurysm
Foundation.
“Our goal was $15,000,
and we’ve already significantly surpassed it,” she
said between the walk and
run on Saturday morning.
“Our community is unbelievable when it comes to
supporting things that
are for a good cause. Our
biggest thing is awareness, and it seems like
the more people we have,
the more people that are
aware, and hopefully this
doesn’t happen to any
more people.”
In addition to her
sister, Carly Frank, and
members of the Paladino
family, Frank noted that
numerous other individuals helped make this
year’s event a success.
“There are a lot of
families involved this
year,” Frank said. “It’s
awesome. It makes it a lot
easier.”
Along with the traditional 5K walk and run,
there were a few new
offerings at this year’s
Bunny Hop as well, one
of which was the collection of used clothes and
shoes for Goodwill. The
collection was part of an
ongoing collection at Penn
State DuBois, and Goodwill has agreed to donate
15 cents from every pound
of items collected to the
Brain Aneurysm Foundation.
Also new this year was
a Kids Fun Run, which
was held in between the
5K walk and run at 12:15
p.m. Youngsters who took
part in the event completed one lap around Benzinger Park and received a
goody bag of candy at the
end.
“We would have kids
come and they’d have to
pay the big fee and they
didn’t get anything at the
end,” Frank said as she
explained how the event
came to be added to the
day’s lineup. “We thought
we’d make it nicer for the
kids, give them candy, and
made it a lot smaller of a
fee (to participate). We offered kids smaller shirts
this year too.”
She noted that around
30 youngsters had signed
up for the Kids Fun Run
this year.
Sunny skies and mild
temperatures, along with
the presence of a DJ, made
the Bunny Hop a fun Easter weekend tradition for
attendees of all ages.
Since its inception,
the Bunny Hop has taken
place on the day before
Easter, and Frank indicated that is likely to be
the case well into the future.
“It’s
really
nice,”
Frank said. “I have friends
that come from way out of
town every single year because they can because we
have Easter weekend off.
I think we’ll continue to
make it Easter weekend.”
For those who would
like to mark their calendars now for next year’s
Bunny Hop, Easter is
slated for Sunday, April
16, 2017, which would
make the Bunny Hop Saturday, April 15, 2017.
