Increased courthouse
security begins May 2
PAULDING Starting
Monday, increased security measures will be put in
place in the Paulding County Courthouse, including
limiting access and searching bags.
In a press release issued
Tuesday morning, Sheriff Jason K. Landers announced: In conjunction
with the Paulding County
commissioners, my office
plans to implement full-time
courthouse security by Monday, May 2. This comes as a
result of talks between the
commissioners,
common
pleas judge, county prosecutor and the sheriff to make
our courthouse a safer place
for our county employees to
work, as well as for citizens
to conduct their business.
Over the past four weeks,
we have been putting plans
in place to make this a fluid
operation. We have talked
to many people that have
been doing this type of security and asking questions.
We have toured other courthouses to see their operations and what works for
them, said Landers.
We want things to operate in a smooth, friendly
manner, all while limiting weapons and potential
weapons from being possessed in the courthouse.
Among the changes:
Hospital
sued by
former
chief
of staff
By DENISE GEBERS
Progress Staff Writer
PAULDING A long-time
county physician has filed a
complaint against the Paulding
County Hospital. He is seeking compensation for damages
and a declaratory judgment on
issues dealing with an alleged
breach of contract.
Dr. James H. Gray, who is
one of two board-certified osteopathic primary care physicians in the Paulding County,
established his practice in the
county in 1985. In 2010, he
entered an agreement with the
hospital making him one of
their employees.
The lawsuit states the hospital board terminated Grays
five-year contract 29 days
before it was complete and
he was put on involuntary
vacation immediately. Documents further state the doctor was barred from his office
building in Antwerp and locks
on the doors were changed in
spite of the fact Gray owns the
property.
Dr. Gray is asking the

PAYNE Playground equipment may not
seem like a very important part of the overall
welfare of a community, but thats not the case
for a small group of individuals in the village of
Payne. Convinced that if its safe and updated
with quality equipment, a playground can become the place where children can go during
and after school, where friendships are created
and bonding with students takes place.
With a dream in mind, a goal was set.
For Lora Lyons, who has three children attending Payne Elementary and is PTO president, the dream was simple. She wanted to see
the playground equipment at Payne Elementary
updated.
Reaching the goal would have its obstacles. Of

and isnt as safe as it once was in serving students needs. Knowing that, Lyons put a plan
into action and the light at the end of the tunnel
is beginning to glow.
I had a dream of creating a place where kids
could go and develop friendships, said Lyons.
A playground that would serve as the center of
outdoor living for the kids. More than a place
to play and exercise, it would be a place where
kids could bond together, become better friends,
while feeling safe in their environment.
Last November, Lyons applied for and received a $15,000 grant through the KaBOOM
and Dr. Pepper Snapple Group. The grant allowed Lyons to put her dream in motion, and
a PTO playground planning committee was
formed. The grant required
a match of $9,000,

Once it decided on the style
of playground equipment that
would compliment the existing equipment, the committee
hit an obstacle they were not
expecting.
We found out through research and planning that our
current surface is not compliant and we have to resurface
the area prior to having the
equipment installed, said
Payne principal Jody Dunham. The unexpected resurfacing added another $10,000
to the project.

PAULDING Superintendent
Brian Gerber highlighted the
Western Buckeye ESC Governing Board on the success of the
ESCs Resource Center during
the boards regular meeting April
20 at the Paulding ESC office.
Gerber also updated the board
on legislative issues, personnel
items, and ESC activities.
The Western Buckeye ESC
Resource Center, which is based
in Van Wert, is one of the crown
jewels in the agency. Very seldom does the public hear about
the voluminous amount of success stories that comes from the
resource center.
Quite frankly, I give all the
credit to the staff who works at
the resource center, Gerber told
the board. People make programs successful. The people
employed at the resource center
are the heartbeat of the program.
Director George Dougal and his
staff go above and beyond the
call of duty to help students in
Paulding and Van Wert counties.
They genuinely care about
the students well-being and
guide those students toward
graduation. The resource center
is not based on the traditional
school setting. The resource center is a school that tailors to the
needs of each student in order

Pauldings softball hitter Audrey Manz makes a connection with the ball. Lincolnview defeated the Lady Panthers on 7-4 in recent
action on the diamond.
LINCOLNVIEW 7 PAULDING 4
The host Lady Panthers
jumped ahead early in their
Northwest Conference battle
against Lincolnview on Thursday, but the Lady Lancers came
storming back and claimed a 7-4
victory.
The Lady Panthers (4-6, 1-1
NWC) got a walk and stolen
base from catcher Kelsey Beck
to open the home first. One out
later, first baseman Haylee Dominique picked up an RBI base hit
to give Paulding a 1-0 lead.
The bottom of the second
featured back-to-back singles
from Stephanie Trausch and
Darian Andrews before Macala
Ashbaugh struck out the next
two batters. Consecutive errors
by the Lincolnview defense allowed the Panthers to plate three
runs before the third out was recorded and suddenly it was 4-0,
Paulding.
Lincolnview got the ball rolling in the top of the fourth as
Lakin Brant walked and Ashbaugh singled to put runners on
the corners. Zoe Miller brought
home the Lady Lancers first run
of the game with an RBI single.
Alena Looser picked up an RBI
double to plate another run. Finally, Morgan Miller and Marissa Miller each got RBI base
knocks to tie the game at 4-4.
Stephiane Trausch comes up with the ball in center field in a game that had the Lincolnview

HAVILAND Each team committed
four errors and each team only scored
one earned run. But it was visiting Antwerp who went home happy in a Green
Meadows Conference and Paulding
County matchup last Tuesday night as
the Archers held on late for a 5-4 win
over host Wayne Trace.
It was far from a perfect game but it
still came down to the final out before
Antwerp finally settled down for the victory, improving to 4-3 overall and 1-1 in
the GMC.
Wayne Trace, which falls to 8-1 in all
games and 2-1 in the league, was first to
strike.
In the second, a leadoff walk to Carley Wright, who was then run for by
Trisha Strickler, preceded strikeouts by
Antwerp pitcher Avery Braaten of both
Megan Moore and Maggie Crosby.
After a single by Brooke Sinn, Carrie
Thrasher reached on an error by the Archer third baseman to score by Moore
and Thrasher for a 2-0 advantage.
Antwerp responded in the third with
two unearned runs of its own.
A leadoff single by Beth Hawley got
the Archers started, before Crosby struck
out Becca Johanns for the first out.
Brooke Hatlevig then reached on a
Raider throwing error to score Hawley
but Antwerp wasnt done. Hatlevig then
Sinn who popped out to our third basemen for the final out was obviously huge
and it sealed the win, said Antwerp
head coach Heather Barnhouse.
The girls were determined to get this
win and being a veteran team helps in
these situations. We kept a level head
and got the job done, said Antwerp
head coach Heather Barnhouse.
On the other side, Raider head coach
was disappointed in the defensive play
of her team and the number of errors
committed.
We just made too many mistakes
today, commented Wayne Trace head
coach Amber Showalter after the contest. We had four errors again and you
cant do that and expect to win at this
level. We need to work on it and get that
cleaned up.
Braaten recorded the victory on the
mound for Antwerp, striking out five
Raider hitters while giving up eight hits,
four runs and two walks.
Callie Perry led the Archer offense
with a single and a double while Beth
Hawley and Becca Johanns each added
singles.
Madison Zartman, Kalin Gerber and
Brooke Sinn all had two singles for
Wayne Trace with Carley Wright and
Megan Moore also adding singles.
Maggie Crosby suffered the loss, giving up four hits and two walks while fanning four.

PAULDING The Lady Panthers picked up a sweep of
county rival Antwerp as the Panthers won a pair of games by
scores of 11-7 and 12-5.
With the two squads tied at 3-3 after three innings, Paulding used a four run fourth and added four more runs in the
sixth to pull away for the victory.
Kelsey Beck had a home run, double and single with Darian Andrews adding a double and two singles to lead the
Panther offense. Bailey Pieper, Asia Arellano and Haylee
Dominique all posted a single and a double.
Avery Braaten had a single and a double for Antwerp
while Sierra Cline, Brooke Hatlevig and Lindsey Bok all
chipped in two singles each.
Kristen Schilt got the win for the Panthers, allowing 13
hits and four walks while fanning two in seven innings of
work. Avery Braaten took the loss for Antwerp, giving up
14 hits and two walks while striking out five.
In the second game, Audrey Manz struck out nine Antwerp hitters to lead Paulding to a 12-5 win.
The Panthers plated five runs in the first and never looked
back, widening the advantage to as much as 9-0 after four
frames.
Haylee Dominique totaled four hits, drove in two runs and
scored three times to lead the Panthers to the victory. Kristen
Schilt, Darian Andrews and Mya Andrews all chipped in
two hits each for Paulding.
Emily Derck topped the Archers with four hits and Lindsey Bok added two.

This week at Antwerp Elementary School, Dr. Miller was the Star of the Week in first grade. He
visited the first grade classrooms to share his favorite things, show students pictures of his family, read his favorite book, and provide a mystery item for the students to guess. Dr. Miller also
ate lunch with the first graders. The students loved learning more about their superintendent.
Jeffery-Mohr Dentistry of Van Wert is very happy to announce that Monica Williams of Payne Elementary
is a $20 winner of the coloring contest to celebrate National Childrens Dental Health Month. The entire
school was very excited to learn that she won the gift certificate. During the month of February and March,
Dr. Jessica Jeffery-Mohr visited the local area schools and the children received kits that included a sticker, pencil, and a toothbrush. The contest included preschoolers to first graders from 14 different schools
around the area. There were 1079 who participated in the coloring contest and 1327 dental kits were given
to the kids during the program! Pictured are Principal Jody Dunham, Monica Williams, Dr. Jessica JefferyMohr and Dr. Carl Jeffery.

Recently Mr. Tempels
eighth grade science class at
Antwerp Middle School created State Standard board
games to review Life, Earth,
and Physical Science concepts
and standards that were covered in class throughout the
school year. Students used
prior knowledge and creativity
to design and construct the
games. Dr. Miller, superintendent of Antwerp Local School,
visited Tempels classroom
and participated in some of
the games when students were
finished creating them (Miller
finished 0-2 for the class period). It was a great learning
experience for all involved.
