Red-Devils Too Hot to Handle
By George Starks
GREENVILLE- With two games in the 2012 football season, Greenville
football coach Aaron Schaffer is still looking for his first varsity
football victory. After opening the season on the road at Eaton and a
47-6 loss to the Eagles, coming home to the friendly confines of Harmon
Field would hopefully prove to be a better result. That wasn't the case
for the Wave. A week ago, Tipp City put a 62-7 thumping on Graham and
that 55 point margin of victory... Read More. More Sports. |

The Downstairs at the Fair
By Naiesha Thobe
Teen Scribe
Like any other young person at the fair, most don't like to frequent
the Coliseum, most likely. Why would they? There's no games, no rides,
no fun to be had. True or false? This author says false. Okay, I'm
still not an avid fan of the Coliseum. There are too... Read

Bradford remains perfect with win over Bethel
By Don Selanders

Bees Friday with a 26-13 Cross County Conference victory. Bradford took

Stop Sending Calls and Jobs Overseas
If you’ve had to call a major company for a service repair or to get an
answer to a question about your cable bill, chances are you’ve probably
spoken with a worker in a different time zone or on a different
continent. That’s because big companies have been shipping U.S. call

A time to remember
Editing & Commentary by Bob Robinson
I was in the seventh grade in 1957. By then I was already in a
metropolitan area, so I don’t remember shotguns in cars… not in
Lincoln, Nebraska. I do remember at Texas A&M shotguns on racks in
the back windows of pickups a few years later. Everywhere. It wouldn’t
be unlikely that one would end up on a high school campus following...
