On June 25, 1971, Curtis Mayfield released his debut album with the single “Move on Up.” The original song was 9 minutes in length and did not chart in the United States. A shorter version made it to number 12 in the United Kingdom. Even though this song was never a hit in the United States, you might hear the lyrics today. The song is the post-game anthem for the Arsenal British soccer club and was on the soundtrack of the movie Bend It Like Beckham. The song could be heard at the end of campaign speeches for President Joe Biden.
DELPHOS__The red-hot Ada High School boys golf team swept a triangular match at the Delphos Country Club on a very wet and inclement Wednesday, August 12.
After being rained out of Monday’s Bluffton Invitational, extremely wet, soggy conditions persisted and plagued this non-conference match.
The Bulldogs decisively beat Delphos Jefferson 185-229, and drubbed Fort Jennings 185-206. FJ beat DJ, 206-229.
Ada improved to 19-2 with the victories.
Bulldog senior Brody Rister earned match medalist honors by firing a round of 41.
