Here's a first for Ada - an Ada HS grad on a professional football rookie card. Zac Dysert, who played for Ada HS and Miami (Ohio), has his own NLF "rookie" football card. The front of the card shows Dysert is a passing photo. The flip side reads:
77
Leaf
Draft
Zac Dysert
Position: QB
Height: 6'4" Weight: 228
Zac Dysert is a strong armed pocket quarterback with some mobility, who given time to throw the ball will help any team at the next level.
As you might imagine, it's a popular card this spring in Ada.
Wouldn't it be neat to have a 25-minute movie showing Bluffton in 1936?
The Columbus Grove High School Alumni Association has preserved two reel-to-reel films that depict the Columbus Grove community and school system as they were in 1936.
The silent films were re-discovered by Laura Clevenger in the library a few years ago and, thanks to her, were saved and moved into the new building.

Julian Harnish is living in a pretty exciting week.
At this moment he is on his way to China with his family. The Bluffton family will be there until mid-June while Julian’s father, Stephen, is on a Bluffton University sabbatical.
That’s not the only exciting thing that happened to the BHS junior in the past five days. On April 20, he finished in second place in the high school piano division of the 2013 Young Artists’ Competition sponsored by the Friends of the (Lima) Symphony.
