By Dave PearceSeptember has been a bad month

for some of Posey County’s bad guys.

According to Posey County Prosecutor Travis Clowers, he is hoping to reduce crime in the coun-ty by sending a message to “would-be” criminals that there will be no more lenient plea agreements in Posey County.

Clowers believes he has teamed with a strong group of individuals in Sheriff Greg Oeth and mem-bers of the Posey County Sher-iff’s Department, members of the Posey County Drug Task Force, and members of municipal police departments. Together, this group

of individuals have already shown they can make a difference. The month of September has been no different.

Keegan Hayes, a Cynthiana resident who was arrested for four home burglaries entered a guilty

plea this month in court.“He had four Class B Felonies

along with four Class D Felonies,” Clowers said of the charges against Hayes. “They were burglaries and thefts. He plead guilty to all of those without a plea agreement.

He was sentenced to ten years in prison.”

Nick McCarty and Austin Combs, a pair who were waived to adult court after being charged with a burglary and a theft also plead guilty recently.

“They were co-defendants and went into a home in the middle of the day in Country Club Estates,” Clowers explained. “They started stealing computers and the home owner happened to be home and woke up and there was an alterca-tion in the front yard but the two boys were able to escape but were ultimately apprehended. I asked

By Dave PearceAs has been the case for so many

years in the past, a meeting held on Saturday in Hew Harmony to give locals some hope that the span cov-ering the Wabash River into Illinois didn’t do much along that line.

As a matter of fact, as the case in many of the past meetings, “when all was said and done, more was said than done.”

The meeting, which had been called by the White County Bridge Commission, a non-government entity which has overseen the bridge for years, did nothing but rehash what has been said over and over again. Members of the bridge commission have indicated they would be willing to sell the bridge to any public entity willing to take it over but thus far, they have had no offers.

“We have kicked this can down the road for quite some time with no success. No one seems to want this bridge. In my opinion we have taken it as far as we can go,” said the president of the three-member White County Bridge Commission Jim Clark. “I think it is a good time to bow out of this and let the state and federal (governments) do what they want to do.”

With a net income of about $80,000 a year, there was little left to do than to close the endangering bridge the week of Memorial Day. The annual earnings takes into ac-count no bridge maintenance. The bridge has been patch-worked to-gether many times since work on it began in 1929 and fi nished in 1931.

The original plan was to offer the bridge to either Illinois or Indiana once the construction bonds were retired. The bridge was paid off by July of 1955, and the commission offered the structure to both states. However, when engineers from both states inspected the bridge, they determined it was not in sound structural condition. Illinois offi -cials said it did not meet the statu-tory requirements for that state to acquire it, and offi cials with Indiana also declined to accept the bridge in 1955 without Illinois’ acceptance.

In 1998, Congress eliminated the mechanism that allows for ap-pointments to the commission. If the current members were to quit or die, the bridge would presumably fall back to federal oversight, said Mike Egbert, a bridge commission member.

The commission voted to per-manently close the half-mile long bridge across the Wabash River linking Indiana and Illinois in May after a close-up inspection by engi-neers.

Posey County and Indiana State government offi cials have been told that the State of Illinois has no funds and even less interest in at-tempting to preserve the structure.

Indiana offi cials, who have indi-cated they might like to see further study done on the structure, have

By Pam RobinsonThe Mount Vernon School Board singled out Mount

Vernon High School, or MVHS, women’s acappella ensemble Angelus for recognition at its Monday, Sept. 17, meeting. On Sept. 6, Angelus was named “Arts En-semble of the Year” at the 2012 Mayor’s Arts Awards Gala, an annual event sponsored by the Arts Council of Southwestern Indiana since 1996.

After the meeting, additional information about the honor was enthusiastically provided by Dana Taylor, long-time Director of Vocal Music and esteemed fac-ulty member in the Fine Arts Academy at MVHS. Tay-lor explained that the Arts Council created the award, “Arts Ensemble of the Year,” just for Angelus. The women’s ensemble has enjoyed great success not only with local and national audiences, but also on national and international radio. The “Arts Ensemble of the Year” award will continue now as an inspiration for the sizeable number of high school, collegiate and semi-professional ensembles in the area.

Taylor noted the public will have another opportuni-ty to catch a performance by Angelus at United Way’s free entertainment evening, Saturday, October 13, to thank the community for 50 years of support. Their lat-est CD, “Contemplation,” will be on sale at that time. After their United Way performance at MVHS, Ange-

lus will not again perform publicly until January 2013.Posey County’s own Wolfgang Orchestra will also

perform at MVHS for the October 13 United Way celebration, Taylor made sure to mention. He pointed out that Wolfgang’s conductor Dennis Noon and his talented wife Nancy Noon were also honored by the Arts Council of Southwestern Indiana with the “Posey County Arts Award.”

Posey County can take pride in its musicians and their contributions to the arts.

In other business:•The board received an update on the Safe Schools/

Healthy Students grant and the Lights on After School grant. The Safe Schools/Healthy Students grant will end in March, but services will be carried out until the end of the school year. Offi cials cannot reapply for this grant since the federal money no longer exists for this grant. Fortunately, much of the grant was used for ma-terials and equipment that will remain in the schools. In the days to come, offi cials will be looking at personnel involved with the grant, especially the social worker. As for the Lights on After School grant, it is in effect for two more years, with the possibility of reoccurring. The program has been so benefi cial to students, offi -

Joe Donnelly said in 2010 that,” I am not going to Washington to represent any special interests, ex-treme political agenda, or be a “yes man” for, anyone”. Also, while campaigning in 2004 and 2006 he stated that, “The debt was one of my top priorities.” Obvi-ously, it is a top priority, as he voted 7 times to increase the debt limit while serving as your Congressman in the 2nd District. The national debt has increased to a mam-moth $7.0 trillion since Joe Donnelly took offi ce in 2007. Thus, to date, outspending every administration com-bined since its conception. Also, in a 2011 debate he openly criticized his Re-publican opponents for rais-ing the debt limit and being “fi scally irresponsible”. Joe Donnelly has proven him-self to be a walking-talking contradiction. He’ll say and do anything to be the victor; even going as far as accusing Richard Mourdock of saying anything to get elected. In addition, Donnelly blasted the infl uence of special inter-est money in campaigns, but since taking offi ce, Donnelly has taken millions from spe-cial interest groups: 47% of

his money has come directly from PAC’s. He has received $27,500 from Nancy Pelosi’s PAC and $10,000 from Har-ry Reid’s PAC, and within the last few days, Donnelly had received an additional $800,000 from Harry Reid; Unbelievable! To date, Don-nelly has received over $1.2 million in union contribu-tions, in which 14 out of 20 of his top contributors were unions. Could this conceiv-ably be why he voted for the auto bailout; not to save the auto industry or jobs per say as he would want Hoosiers to believe, but rather, truth be known, to collect union dues off the backs of auto work-ers, so he could then preserve his main contributor in or-der to subsidize his politi-cal campaigns? Remember, Joe Donnelly isn’t going to Washington to represent any “special interests, extreme

political agenda or be a “yes man” for anyone”, as he clearly stated in 2010 while campaigning for Congress. Richard Mourdock, on the other hand, has openly called for term limits, and even stated “there is no place in Washington, D.C., for lobby-ists or anything of the kind”. In summation, Joe Donnelly voted for the Health Care Bill without a single Repub-lican vote, voted for the auto bailout, received thousand of dollars from special interests groups, and lastly, called for and received nearly $32 mil-lion in earmarks, which he earlier opposed while cam-paigning for Congress. Hoo-siers, at this critical time in our history, the choice should be clear, let’s send Richard Mourdock to Washington D.C., to defend our values, interests, and principles.

While listening to Na-tional Public Radio on my way to court last Wednes-day I heard a scholarly dissertation concerning a business card size piece of ancient parchment. The ex-perts estimate it was writ-ten about the fourth-centu-ry, that is, about 300 years after Jesus was crucifi ed.

This scrap of papyrus was written in the Sahidic Coptic dialect and purports to set forth quotes from Je-sus talking to his disciples. The whole inscription is set out below:

‘“…not (to) me. My mother gave to me li[fe]…’”

“The disciples said to Jesus,’…”

“deny. Mary is worthy of it” (Or: “deny. Mary is n[ot] worthy of it”)

“…’ Jesus said to them, ‘My wife…’”

“…she will be able to be my disciple…”

“Let wicked people swell up…”

“As for me, I dwell with her in order to…”

“an image”“my moth[er]”“three”“forth which…”As you can see, there are

certain words contained in this writing which cause theological pause. Such thoughts as a female dis-ciple and most signifi cantly a married Jesus could truly get a lot of angels danc-ing on the heads of a lot of pins.

Of course, we do not know the source of the parchment or its authentic-ity. Such issues are best left to the experts, or, at least, theologians. Therefore, I will just muse about some of the few and worldly

things I do know a little about. Let’s you and I start with female disciples.

Now, in the church and family I grew up with most

of the disciple type work was done by the women. The males were more into preaching than actually do-ing anything. When it came to feeding the hungry or clothing the naked the men were not of much help. So, on this score, the weight of anecdotal evidence mili-tates for female disciples, say in those situations where loaves and fi shes were concerned. However, I speak only from personal experience and observa-tion, not authority.

But let’s carefully slide into that next thorny thick-et of theology, a married Jesus. On this issue there are numerous reasons to doubt the meaning of the cryptic Coptic snippet giv-ing a matrimonial situation to Jesus. And more sig-nifi cantly, there is our Ev-eryman’s experience with marriage to which we may turn for guidance.

Can you conceive of a wife who would al-low her husband to hang out for forty days in the desert without working? How about arguing with the Jewish religious lead-ers and the Roman rulers? Wouldn’t most wives have demanded he quit dueling with danger and get back to some household chores.

And what about all that fi shing? I suspect his wife, Mary in the writing, would have reminded Jesus he was a carpenter and they needed to pay some bills.

Well, we had best leave these dicey questions raised by the tiny piece of papyrus to those who ac-tually know what they are talking about. But, as for me, I am okay with female disciples. However, the prospect of Jesus being or-dered to take out the trash or quit spending time with all those peripatetic male friends is a little hard to vi-sualize. On the other hand, if Jesus was married, he probably had little trouble getting his wife to visit her in laws for Christmas.

Gavel Gamut’s “ Was Jesus Married?”

LIVINGFOR THEJOURNEYBY PAMROBINSON

Guest Column by State Rep. Wendy McNamara

It is my favorite time of year as college and profes-sional football are back in full swing and summer tem-peratures are subdued by the pleasantness of autumn. I al-ways look forward to spend-ing time outdoors with my family during the fall as it is truly the most beautiful sea-son. Indiana embraces the fall season by celebrating our state’s rich history with Oktoberfests, Pioneer Days and countless other festi-vals. That being said, the biggest festival of the year is right around the corner.

The Fall Festival held by the West Side Nut Club in Evansville will run next week from Oct. 1-6. Every year, thousands of Hoosiers and their families come to the festival to enjoy local entertainment and attrac-tions. This year will not be any different.

Headlining the music scene of the festival will be:

7 Bridges: The Ultimate Ea-gles Experience, Grandview Junction, Terry Lee and the Rockaboogie Band, The Jimmies, The Dominoes, Joe Greulich and Tim Smith and much, much more!

There will be over a 130 food booths along West Franklin Street stretching from Wabash Avenue to St. Joe Avenue. You will be able to enjoy typical fair food delicacies such as BBQ sandwiches, tender-loins, hot dogs, funnel cakes and even some healthier op-tions like salad wraps and soups. However, the more daring souls might want to try a brain sandwich, some chocolate covered crickets or even a deep-fried moon pie.

There will be tons of fun, food and entertainment to enjoy, so do not delay and get a pre-sale armband voucher at Old National Bank for a discounted price

of $16. At the door, admis-sion is $18.

If you are looking to avoid the big crowds, the West Side Nut Club will be hosting Family Day on Sun-day September 30. This is a great day for small children to come and enjoy Kiddie rides from 1 p.m. - 7 p.m. The West Side Nut Club will be serving food and drinks at the intersection of Frank-lin and 10th Avenue, in ad-dition to a limited number of food booths on Acorn Plaza. Tickets will be $1.25 each.

The Fall Festival will be a wonderful time for friends and family to get together and enjoy an evening out on the town. If you would like more information about the festival or a detailed sched-ule for each day, please visit www.nutclub.org. I am looking forward to being at the festival again this year, and I hope to see a lot of fa-miliar faces!

Like many teens, my 15-year-old daughter Jessica gained a lesson about economics the hard way when a highly-anticipated summer job failed to materialize this year. Her disappointment, however, only fueled her imagination. She developed creative ways to earn spend-ing money, such as bathing and grooming our Pomera-nian, Yorkie and dachshund and detailing my candy apple red Sebring. I must say, nev-er have our three dogs or my car (aka Babe) looked so good for so long.

Jessica landed upon her best idea for earn-ing money, however, around the middle of July. Determined to help de-clutter the base-ment, she struck a deal with her dad Jim and me: she would clear out the basement if she could keep the profi ts from selling all the un-wanted ‘trash.’ Nothing is beneath a young woman entering high school as a sopho-more, or so it seemed to me, and wanting new clothes to start class.

Jim and I couldn’t believe our good for-tune. Not only would Jessica unearth a large bedroom and family room in the basement,

but she would help her dear old dad to hang onto more of his pension by buying her back-to-school wardrobe herself.

Our daughter’s demeanor and drive impressed Jim and me throughout the de-cluttering process. I’d be exaggerating if I claimed she whistled while she worked, but she did keep the beat of Adele and Justin Bieber. She may have even hummed a few bars, but the volume was

set too loud to hear her.Day after day for two weeks, Jessica

tossed items too worn to try to pawn off on anybody and tagged the good stuff for sale. She cleared a path in the basement while carefully grouping the stuff in categories—books and movies, stuffed animals and toys, clothes and accessories. A separate corner held the furniture up for sale.

The night before and the morning of the sale, she arranged her groupings on long tables in our garage. Once the door opened for business at 7 a.m., she and her dad set the furniture in the driveway. She bartered like a pro with customers who asked for “the

best price,” marking items down to move them quickly. She kept careful sales records in a spiral-bound notebook to know exactly when she earned more than the $80 we spot-ted her to make change. Her nieces, Addie and Paige Robinson, helped her to bag pur-chases.

By 1 p.m., the bulk of Jessica’s merchan-dise had been sold. She and her dad loaded his rusting blue Chevy S-10 with items left behind and dropped them off at the Posey County Thrift Shop.

Not until the garage door closed again did

Jessica count her money—three times. Fi-nally, still in disbelief, she reported her earn-ings. Let me just say that Jessica paid for all her new school clothes and rewarded each of her nieces with a little spending money of their own.

A gentle rain fell only once the garage sale ended. Jim and I couldn’t be more thankful that even the heavens seemed to conspire to teach our daughter the value of money and generous neighbors. We appreciate every-one who shopped with Jessica. She’s already planning next year’s bargain bonanza.

faced an impossible situation as the bridge is actually un-der the auspices of the White County Bridge Commission.

At this point, the bridge would have to be turned over to the State of Indiana before Hoosier money could be spent, even on a study. INDOT has been reluctant to assume control of the bridge simply because of the condition of the bridge and the responsibility that comes with it, whether it would mean simply tearing it down, repairing it, or re-building it. Any of the three options would be costly dur-ing tough economic times.

So in the meantime, the bridge will remain closed and area residents will be forced to drive either to the Mount Vernon bridge or to Interstate 64. The bridge will continue to stand and will continue to be a sub-

Judge Redwine to waive those young men to adult court be-cause of the seriousness of the crime. It takes a pretty bold action to go into someone’s home in the middle of the day and start taking items and it is extremely dangerous.”

Clowers said this was a particularly tough case because these young men were 18 at the time of their sentencing.

‘I certainly don’t take any joy in someone going off to pris-on at that young of an age,” Clowers said. “But at the same time, there has to be consequences and when you commit a crime like this, there are serious consequences. So the judge took into consideration their age and the seriousness of the crime along with many other factors and sentenced them to six years, two in prison and four on probation.”

Clowers indicated that the days of plea agreements has dwindled in Posey County, according to the seriousness of the crimes.

Clowers said that many members of the Posey County community now have guns in their homes and that is the rea-son why these times of crimes become so dangerous.

“I have always said that a home burglary is nothing more than a homicide waiting to happen.” Clowers said. “It may be the homeowner defending himself or his family or the per-son who goes in with no intention of hurting anyone but gets trapped and tries to get out of a situation and they wind up hurting or killing someone.”

Clowers said all crimes are serious and should be treated as such.

“In the more serious cases, they simply don’t want to ac-cept the plea agreements because it is either too much prison time or too harsh of a sentence,” Clowers said. “When they know that we are prepared and ready to go to trial and have good evidence and are not willing to budge on our offers, a lot of times they have been just pleading ‘open’ to the judge and argue for a better sentence from him.”

But Clowers is the fi rst to admit that he certainly would not have been able to accomplish some of his mission by himself. He gives most of the credit to the offi cers who normally get

little credit in the cases.“I believe our detectives and our offi cers are doing a fan-

tastic job,” Clowers said. “I can’t do my job without them. I have to depend and rely on them. I just can’t say enough good things about them and the job they are doing.”

Clowers said another message he would like to send out is that home burglaries are serious, not only for the victims but also for those committing the crimes.

“You saw two juveniles who were waived to adult court because of the seriousness of the crime,” Clowers said. “It is one of those things that my offi ce just isn’t going to budge on. We are just not going to offer lenient plea agreements to people who are going into homes. We treat these things very seriously. Another message is that our police departments and our detectives are solving these crimes. Home burglaries are not easy crimes to solve but if you look back, we have a very good track record over the past year or year-and-a-half.”

You can go back to Kyle Billings and Toby Whitfi eld and Brian Long, Clowers continued. They were all resolved with-out pleas agreements because they didn’t want to take out of-fers. The offi cers have a great track record of solving these crimes and giving us great evidence. And when we have good evidence, we’re going to push the case.

CHEDDAR & JALAPENO BISCUITS

INGREDIENTS • 1 1/3 cups (175g) all-purpose fl our• 1/4 cup (45g) polenta or fi ne milled corn meal• 3 tablespoons (45g) sugar• 2 teaspoons baking powder• 1/2 teaspoon salt• Pinch cayenne pepper• 6 ounces (1 1/2 cups packed, 170g) shredded sharp ched-

dar cheese, divided (1 1/4 cup and 1/4 cup)• 2 tablespoons diced fresh jalapeños (more or less to taste)• 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons heavy cream (200ml), plus extra

for brushingDIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, whisk to-gether the fl our, polenta, salt, sugar, cayenne, and baking powder. Stir in 1 1/4 cups of the grated cheddar cheese and the diced jalapeños.

2. Make a well in the center of the fl our mixture. Pour the cream into the center of the well and your (clean) hands to gently bring together the ingredients. If you need to add a bit more cream then do so a tiny trickle at a time. You just want everything to get wet enough so that the dough will be sticky and clumpy.

3. Turn the dough out onto a surface lightly dusted with fl our. Knead the dough just a few times - maybe only three or four pushes. You just want it to come together. (Over-kneading will result in fi rmer, denser biscuits.)

4. Form the dough into a disc about 3/4-inch to an inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter (or a small juice glass) to cut round bis-cuit shapes out of the disk. Combine the leftover dough and keep forming small round biscuit shapes until the dough is used up.

5. Place on a Silpat-lined or parchment lined baking sheet, with at least an inch or two between the biscuits. Brush the tops of the biscuits with a little more cream. Top the biscuits with a sprinkle of the remaining cheese.

6. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 11-12 minutes or until golden and the cheese is nicely melted.

Yield: Makes 10-12 biscuits

Annual fall clean-up days

Saturday NightGene Horacek

Long ago in the thirties on Saturday night Weather permitting, they’d celebrate right.

Townsfolk and others from many miles awayGathered on Main Street at the end of the day.

The stores and barbershops stayed open till nine,That suited all of the residents fi ne.

Payday for workers was on Saturday too,Most everyone would have some trading to do.

In front of the court square the old people sat;With friends and neighbors they had a good chat.

Hundreds of people were seen milling around;Acquaintances and kinfolk here could be found.

The theater was chock-full of kiddies and men;Tom Mix was ridin’ old Tony back then.

And Dagger’s Place, there stood a big crowd,With all kinds of persons a talkin’ real loud.

Children were so happy with nickels or dimes;Some lucky ones had a quarter sometimes.

Candy bars, hot dogs, hamburgers with pickle--Each could be bought for only a nickle.

Gentil’s and Oliver’s were serving fi ne food.“Pop” Bennett was busy selling popcorn so good.

The Palace of Sweets was located quite handyFor young people eagerly buying their candy.

Hartung’s, Rosenbaums and Stinsons were thenSupplying the dry goods for women and men.

Both Gronemeiers and Schenck’s had hardware and plugs.Boyce & Williams, Fogas and Rothrock sold drugs.

Now there was some drinkin’ and often a fi ght,To spoil the good fun of that old special night.

Then sometimes a poor lad, sorry to say,Would wake up in jail-- “the devil to pay”.

Yes, those Saturday nights were something to see;Forever they will live in our memory.

While things were not perfect back then, it is true,In those days of depression we learned to make do.

Correction: In last week’s edition we ran a poem that was submitted called “Mt. Vernon Saturday Night” by Author Unknown. We now have the correct version and author for that poem.

On Saturday, September 29, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is sponsoring the fi fth nation-wide “Prescription Drug Take Back” initiative. The “Take Back” initiative seeks to prevent prescription drug abuse and theft. Collection sites will be set up nation-wide for expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs to be disposed of for destruction. This service is free and anonymous with no questions asked. The only restriction is we will not ac-cept new or used needles. This program is intended for liquid and pill medications.

The Drug Take Back

events have proven to be a popular and safe method for the public to legally and safely dispose of prescrip-tion drugs that are no longer needed or have expired. Cit-izens wishing to participate in this program may drop off their prescription drugs for disposal at any Indiana State Police Post throughout the state (except the Toll Road) which includes both the Evansville and Jasper Posts on Saturday, September 29, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.

Livingston, Crittenden, Union, Henderson, Daviess, Hancock, Breckinridge, & Meade Counties

New Harmony artist, Maggie Rapp, is the fea-tured artist in the “Window on the Walk-way” Exhibit of the Arts Coun-cil of South-western Indi-ana. Rapp’s work is on display in the front window of the Bower-Suhrheinr ich Foundation Gal-lery located at 318 Main Street in downtown Evans-ville. The exhibit will be on display through the month of September. The gallery is open from 10 am – 4 pm, Tuesday through Friday, but the exhibit in the window can be viewed at all times. Each month a different artist is fea-tured.

Rapp’s artist statement sums up her philosophy on art, “My desire to become an artist has been a life-long pursuit: sometimes stifl ed by the reality of the world; always there in the recesses of my soul; and occasionally bursting forth into the light. I believe the ability to create is God’s gift and we, the blessed, are responsible for nurtur-ing it in whatever form we choose—I chose art.”

Her art captures reality in its fi ne detail and includes the earthy beauty of the

world as she sees it. Her work ranges from realistic to impression-ist, depending upon how she wishes the viewer to in-teract with the painting.Maggie grew

up in historic New Harmo-ny, Indiana, on the banks of the Wabash River. She has a BA in Mathemat-ics and a Masters in Edu-cation. After graduating from college, she taught high school math while at the same time experiment-ing with watercolor, oil painting, pastel portraits, decorative painting and various creative crafts. Mostly self taught, she has taken workshops with C.W. Mundy, Carolyn An-derson, Scott Christianson, Kevin Macpherson, Jerry Smith, Bill Borden, Judi Wagner and Karlyn Hol-man. Gleaning from these instructors, Maggie has developed her own artistic style and presentation.

Rapp retired from teach-ing in 2001 and is currently the Director of the New

Harmony Hoosier Salon Gallery. She and her hus-band, Ernie, reside in New Harmony, but spend win-ters at their Florida home in Ft. Myers. Maggie is a Signature Member of the Watercolor Society of In-diana, having exhibited in their annual juried exhibits at the Indianapolis Muse-um of Art since 2008. She is affi liated with the Hoo-sier Salon Patrons Associa-tion, American Watercolor Society, Oil Painters of America, American Im-pressionist Society, Indi-ana Plein Air Painters As-sociation, Arts Council of Southwestern Indiana, and the Art Council of South-west Florida. Her art has been exhibited at the Hoo-sier Salon New Harmony Gallery; Evansville Mu-seum of Art, Science and History; the Red Lantern Gallery in the Red Wagon Restaurant in Poseyville; the Jane Morgan Studio and Gallery in Louisville, KY; numerous exhibits of the Arts Council of South-western Indiana and the Arts Council of Southwest Florida. Her work has been accepted to juried shows throughout Indiana and southwest Florida. To view her work, visit www.maggierappfi neart.com.

Library Lil’s Story hour is back at the Work-ing Men’s Institute, every Thursday from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. in the evening. This is an hour where we share books, crafts, songs, and snacks with children from preschool through 5th grade, and we have a little something for everyone.

This coming Thursday, Connie Wilson will be presenting a “visit to Af-rica,” with traditional West African stories and crafts. Look for stories about the African Trickster, and a craft activity designed for storytelling.

Next week, from Sep-tember 30 through Octo-ber 6, we will be observ-ing Banned Books Week. Banned Books Week brings together the entire book community – librar-ians, booksellers, publish-ers, journalists, teachers, and readers of all types – in shared support of the free-dom to seek and to express ideas, even those some consider unorthodox or un-popular.

You would be surprised at what books have been banned and/or challenged; books like The Bible, To Kill A Mockingbird, Lord of the Rings, and just about all of the Harry Potter books have been banned or challenged.

What do I mean when I say “banned or chal-lenged”? A challenge is an attempt to remove or re-strict materials, based upon the objections of a person or group. Challenges do not simply involve a per-son expressing a point of view; rather, they are an attempt to remove mate-rial from a curriculum or library, thereby restricting the access of others. Mate-rials end up being banned by successful challenges, which end up with a board or an administration actu-ally removing materials from collections, so that the ideas they contain are no longer available.

WMI will be offering the public a taste of what ban-ning books can do during Banned Books Week: any-one who wants to can come into WMI and “ban” the book of their choice. Books chosen will be moved to a specially reserved shelf labeled “Banned Books: These books are not avail-able for checkout this week because they have been banned by someone else.”

Another display will have a variety of books which have actually been challenged or banned in other places. Anyone checking out any of these books will be given an “I Read Banned Books” but-

ton.Coming up on October

18, the Friends of WMI will host the fi nal of this year’s lecture series at WMI when Allen Pursell of the Indiana Nature Con-servancy presents “Just Below the Surface: A Con-servationist Looks at In-diana’s Rivers,” focusing on our very own Wabash River.

The Working Men’s In-stitute is open Tuesday-Thursday from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m.; Friday & Saturday from 10 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.; and on Sunday from noon – 4 p.m.

The Institute is closed on Monday.

The Friends of the APL are asking for volunteers to decorate one of their tabletop Christmas trees for a silent tree auction as an additional fundraiser this November.

If you would like to dec-orate one of these special trees, you may come to the

library to pick up a tree and take it home to decorate as you please. Use any theme, including literary (kids or adults), crafts, Christmas, business, or hobby; all are gratefully accepted. Each tree-decorator is asked to in-clude their name and contact

information.Once your tree is decorated

A historical building that was at the heart of two uto-pian communities will re-open in grand style with a public open house, games, music and fellowship from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Septem-ber 30.

This celebration marks the fi rst time Community House No. 2 has received extensive renovations and improvements to its exhibits in nearly 50 years. In addi-tion, new exhibits - includ-ing artifacts found in recent archaeological excavations in the backyard and pho-tographs pertaining to the building - will be on display at the event.

Community House No. 2 is located at 374 North Main Street in New Harmony. Constructed in 1822 by the

Harmonists, a religious uto-pian group from Germany, the building served as one of four large dormitories to house the single men and women of the celibate Har-mony Society.

After the Harmonists left in 1824, the structure was integrated into the Owen-Maclure utopian commu-nity and functioned as a school and living quarters for students and teachers. Once the Owen-Maclure community dissolved, the building housed a variety of businesses, including a ho-tel, tavern, rooming house, print shop, cigar factory, hardware store, tea room, and club meeting space. The State of Indiana purchased the structure in 1940.

Renovations to Commu-

nity House No. 2 were in-spired by the previous func-tions of the building. The print shop (1850s-1930s) has “returned” to its former place of business on the third fl oor. An exhibit will include a display of original printing equipment along with copies of 19th century posters that were printed in the shop.

In addition to sprucing up the exhibits and making the building more versatile, enhancing the functional-ity of the space was another goal of the renovation. Im-provements to the structure include the installation of an elevator for full access to the second and third fl oors and the installation of a heating, ventilation, and air condi-tioning system that will help protect artifacts and aid visi-tor comfort.

The renovations were fi -nanced by the Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites. For more information about the public open house, con-tact Historic New Harmony at 812/682-4488 or visit www.newharmony.org. The open house is sponsored by Koester Construction Com-pany, J. E. Shekell, Inc., ALVA Electric Inc., and ThyssenKrupp Elevator.

By Pam RobinsonThe universe has con-

spired to create a new star—a GE Star, that is. A 2012 Mount Vernon High School, or MVHS, honors graduate, Stephan Blanford has recent-ly received a GE Star Award for $3,500, just as his brother Matthew did two years ago. The award will be applied to-ward educational expenses as the Mount Vernon native is

now completing his fi rst year in the engineering program at Purdue University.

The son of Bob Blanford and Judy Butler, Stephan Blanford is one of only ten 2012 MVHS graduates who maintained a 4.0 grade point average throughout their high school careers. He explains that the GE Star Award rec-ognizes students with parents who are employed by or have

retired from GE. He credits his stepfather Roger Butler, a lifelong GE employee, with making him aware of the application process. Recipi-ents of the GE Star Award, presented to students nation-wide, include academic and extracurricular information along with a letter of recom-mendation in their applica-tion packet.

A GE Star nominates a

high school mentor to receive an accompanying award of $500 for educational pur-poses. Blanford honored his German teacher, Mr. Keith Kinnaird, for supporting his education. At the MVHS academic honors banquet in the spring, Blanford had ear-lier singled out Kinnaird for recognition as an outstanding teacher—the most infl uential in Blanford’s high school ca-

reer.“I liked Mr. Kinnaird be-

cause his teaching style was different, and I was always interested in his class,” Blan-ford stated about his mentor. “He was the only teacher I had that I saw every semester for four years.”

His mentor praises Blan-ford as a “fantastic” student. “He was like a son to me,” Kinnaird insists.

By Pam RobinsonThe potentially controversial public hear-

ing on the 2013 city budget wrapped up in eight minutes with only one resident, Nancy Sexton, addressing the common council at their meeting Thursday night. The four coun-cil members present voted to pass the budget on second reading. Republican council mem-ber Andy Hoehn was absent from the meet-ing.

In answering Sexton’s questions regard-ing the 2013 budget, Clerk-Treasurer Cristi Sitzman emphasized that the 2013 budget is less than the previous year’s budget and there were no raises. Sitzman then explained that the rate is 22.5 percent higher than last year’s certifi ed rate, but that is a result of certifi ed as-sessed valuations, which would change. She went on to state that the actual levy is 3.79 percent higher than last year. She added that last year the city advertised to raise $3.2 mil-lion in taxes whereas the city advertised for $3.3 million in taxes for 2013.

Right before the public hearing and vote on the 2013 budget, council passed on fi nal reading the salary ordinance for the year end-ing December 31, 2013. The ordinance is now number 12-17.

With the 2013 budget set aside, council then passed on fi rst reading an ordinance to vacate the south half of the north/south al-ley between Main and Water for the Landing Project. City Attorney Beth McFadin Higgins made note of the fi led petition and certifi ed mailings. A public hearing will be held on Oc-tober 4 regarding the ordinance to vacate the portion of the alley designated.

Petitioners Andy Myzak and Tim Martin then addressed council. Myzak stated that The Landing will now front Water Street and be built on top of the alley addressed in the ordinance. He then stated that after approval of the ordinance, they will have closing and construction will start the end of October or the fi rst of November.

Mayor John Tucker explained that the ren-dering has changed to face more the Water Street side, and investors are also in the pro-cess of acquiring the Cox Winiger property. Tim Martin added that this will allow for a signifi cant increase in parking. The code re-quires 50 spaces, and there will be 81 spaces when completed.

In responding to questions from City At-torney Beth McFadin Higgins, Myzak re-ported that the Board of Zoning Appeals had

approved the special use for the project. He emphasized the completion date for the proj-ect must be no later than December 31, 2013.

In other business:•Council passed on fi rst reading an ordi-

nance updating, restating and recodifying chapter 91 of animal control. It was noted that this entirely new animal control chapter limited the total number of dogs and cats in a home to eight – four each. It was further stated that there is no increase in fees or fi nes.

•Council passed the resolution directing payments in lieu of annexation be deposited into the city’s general fund. The resolution is now numbered 12-18. These payments cur-rently go into the rainy day fund and come from GAF and Countrymark. The income for 2013 was stated as $79,096.

•Council passed on fi rst reading the ordi-nance authorizing a blanket bond of criminal insurance policy. Attorney Higgins explained that a new law went into effect authorizing this blanket bonding—which should save the city money since individual bonds will not be purchased now.

•Council approved the submission and fi l-ing of the Indiana Utility Regulatory Com-mission, or IURC, petition on behalf of the

sewage utility.•Matt Walls of Bernardin Lochmueller &

Associates reported on the unexpected 10 year storm event at the West Storm Water Project.

•Mike Burris with Bernardin Lochmueller & Associates invited council to tour the up-dates to the wastewater plant. He advised that the scheduled completion date is December 17, 2012.

•Tucker reported he is putting back to-gether the Mount Vernon Economic Develop-ment Board with Councilman Andy Hoehn and Councilwoman Sue Shelton as members along with Larry Williams, Mike Ashworth, Judy Winiger and Brian Jeffries. The board is required to meet once a year, but he hopes members will get together more often. Tucker added he will be going after annexation and TIF.

•When meeting as the Water Utility Board, council members authorized Tucker to sign the petition and allow Umbaugh to fi le it re-garding forgoing the process of fi ling rate decisions with the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission, or IURC.

The “Hessian Fly Free

Date” for Posey County is October 8. It’s recom-mended to plant wheat within

two weeks after this date. (see article in the September 21, 2012 Pest & Crop News available at: http://exten-sion.entm.purdue.edu/pest-crop/2012/issue25/PandC25.pdf). Below is an excerpt from this newsletter on this subject:

The Hessian fl y is pres-ent in wheat growing areas throughout the US, including Indiana. The Hessian fl y can survive on alternative grass hosts, and will be waiting to infest a fi eld the next time wheat is planted. When the opportunity presents itself, there is potential for a rapid increase of fl y populations as a result of weather condi-tions or cropping practices that favor survival of eggs and young larvae in the fall. Many fi elds throughout the US are already empty due to the nationwide drought that occurred this year. It is im-

perative that we do not jump the gun and still practice fol-lowing the fl y-free date and plowing fi elds before plant-ing wheat.

Following the fl y-free date. Much of the fall fl y population can be avoided by planting after the fl y-free date. A low fall infestation of-ten goes unnoticed due to the tillering of the wheat plant. The fl y-free date is of key im-portance, even if you plan to use the wheat only for cattle. It is tempting given the open fi elds early in the season to plant wheat early. This could lead to disastrous conse-quences. The fl y-free date is our main protection to avoid a subsequent infestations by the spring brood. Additional-ly, it has been shown that fol-lowing the fl y-free date helps reduce other wheat disease problems and reduces winter-kill from excessive growth.

Conditions are favorable for a strong return of Hessian Fly

About 65 local community leaders and volunteers gath-ered at the Alexandrian Public Library in Mount Vernon, In-diana, on September 19 to kick off the United Way of Posey County campaign and enjoy in the celebration of the 50th An-niversary of the United Way of Posey County. Breakfast was provided by, cooked, and served by the United Way of Posey County Board of Direc-tors to thank all the volunteers for their efforts during the past 50 years.

Keith Spurgeon, United Way of Posey County Presi-dent, welcomed everyone to the kickoff and the celebration of the 50th anniversary. He announced that, as a part of the celebration, there would be a Variety Show on October 13 at 7 P.M. at the Mount Ver-non High School Auditorium featuring some of the most talented performers in Posey County. He also said that, just as the kickoff breakfast was a thank you to the United Way volunteers, the Variety Show would be free to attend and a thank you to the entire com-munity for 50 years of support. The theme of the Variety Show is “It’s a Wonderful World.” Keith Spurgeon said “It truly is a wonderful world, and it is that way because you helped make it.” He said that CGB and its sister companies Con-

solidated Terminals and Lo-gistics and CGB Soybean Pro-cessing were sponsoring the entire evening, and noted that no United Way funds would be used for the event.

Wayne Games, campaign chair, said to the volunteers that the United Way of Posey County campaign is about Local People Helping Local People and everyone knows someone who is using the ser-vices of a United Way agency. He thanked them for working together to make this a better community, and said the need is great, especially given the economy. Games continued “We are a community of giv-ers. We give of our time, our talent, and our money. We just have to ask someone to give and be passionate about this great reason to do it.”

Michelle Hudson, local realtor and community sup-porter, spoke of the 50 year history of the United Way of Posey County and said the United Way has helped t change lives in Posey County. She mentioned that Mahatma Gandhi said “We must be the change that we want to see in the world.”

Michelle mentioned that Bill Keck was one of those instrumental in the start of the United Way in Posey County 50 years ago and that he al-ways said “If you make your

living from a community, you must always give back more than you receive.” She noted that the United Way in Posey County had grown from funding 4 agencies in 1962 to 21 agencies offering more than 75 programs in 2012, as well as funding 2-1-1, offer-ing workshops and training, a prescription drug discount program, and obtaining grants to help start Family Matters in 2006, fi rmly establish Big Brothers Big Sisters in Posey County, offer more Neighbor to Neighbor fi nancial stability courses throughout the county, and bring more health services to the uninsured and underin-sured through ECHO Commu-nity Health Care.

She reminded everyone that the success of the past 50 years is due to “YOU” – to all the volunteers, contributors, sup-portive businesses and indi-viduals, and agencies provid-ing essential services.

As a part of reviewing the past 50 Years, Michelle Hudson recognized Eliza-beth Baier for serving as Executive Director of the United Way of Posey County the last 30 years. She noted that in the past 50 years, the United Way of Posey County had raised $10,096,287 and $9,324,264.18 – 92% of it – had been raised in the last 30 years.

She said that there were 15 volunteers working on the campaign in 1962, and there were over 150 now, and that in 50 years, there have been 891 members of the Board of Directors and 2,865 total vol-unteers, and that it is really all about Local People Helping Local People to make a differ-ence here in our community..

Keith Spurgeon recog-nized 2012 Pacesetters for the United Way of Posey County including St. Philip School, where total employee par-ticipation tripled and giving increased 17%; St. Wendel School which is involved in the United Way of Posey County campaign again and has signifi cant response with the campaign not yet fi nished; and St. Matthew School which offers payroll deduction and has both the school and offi ce participating with total giving increased by 16%.

MSD North Posey was also recognized for its use of pay-roll deduction, which is very popular. This campaign now has 3 Leadership Givers and is still ongoing. The MSD of Mount Vernon was also recog-nized for its successful cam-paign with 5 new Leadership Givers and 22 Leadership Giv-ers overall.

Babcock & Wilcox, which is also celebrating its 50th year in Posey County, increased its employee giving by 3% and has 9 Leadership Givers. SABIC’s Pacesetter Campaign is still underway, with employ-ee pledging wrapping up on the 21st and other fundraisers such as an auction, BBQ meal, and raffl es still underway. SABIC is again matching em-ployee pledges and fundraisers at 50%.

Wayne Games, campaign chairman, announced an ad-vance gift from Holy Angels Church of New Harmony which was a tithing gift pre-sented by Ann Scarafi a and a 20% increase over last year. Pat Ward, represented Coun-tryMark Cooperative to pres-ent a company contribution 8% larger than last year. Pat Beckgerd of CGB announced that the company will match 100% of all employee contri-butions. Molly Stalker of Car-gill said that they will have an-other great campaign with the company fully matching both locally and nationally. Mark Isaac of United Fidelity Bank presented an advance gift and announced that any employee who makes a fair share con-tribution (1 hour per month pay) will receive a vacation day. Amber Cuellar of WSI announced that the company contribution will increase by 12%. Steve Bennett of CSB State Bank said their corpo-rate contribution will increase by 13% and Barb Tennyson of Old National Bank pre-sented their company contri-bution and said that the Bank was proud to be a supporter for the last 50 years. Games said that the members of the United Way Board of Direc-tors and staff have already made their gifts totaling more than $39,000 fi rst before ask-ing anyone else to participate.

Wayne Games said Larry Williams of McKim’s IGA announced that October will be United Way month at McKim’s IGA again and if customers turn in their IGA receipt to the store offi ce dur-ing October, McKim’s IGA will donate 1% of the total receipts less liquor, cigarettes,

offi ce services, and taxes to the United Way of Posey County. Saturday, October 27, will be United Way Day at the IGA with local celebrities carrying out groceries.

Wayne Games also an-nounced that the Michelle’s Icing on the Cake in Mount Vernon will donate 10% of receipts to the United Way on October 17, no coupon required. Tequila’s in Mount Vernon will donate 20% on both October 23 and October 30, with coupon required, and the St. Philips Inn will donate 10% on October 18 with no coupon required.

By Dave PearceThe North Posey Vikings are the only ones

who can control just how far they can go this year. They control their own destiny in the Pocket Athletic Conference and for the most part, with the help of the Viking coaches, the Vikings can continue to work and be as good as hard work will carry them into the post season.

On Friday night in Ferdinand, the Forest Park Rangers, found out just how controlling the North Posey Vikings can be as they wast-ed no time taking control of the game and never gave end, thumping the Rangers 48-0.

“The kids worked very hard this week on getting focused after a big, emotional win last week,” North Posey Coach Joe Gengelbach said, following the game. “I thought we came out ready to play. We made some errors but you will have some of those. But anything we have done will be correctible. We made a couple of mistakes that could have led to some points for them but stiffened up.”

In what has traditionally been a nightmar-ish trip to Ferdinand, this group of North Posey Vikings was apparently ready to face adversity when they got off the bus. The For-est Park Rangers won the toss and elected to receive but that’s the only battle the Rangers would win on this night.

Viking kicker Nick Neidig booted the ball into the end zone and the ball came out to the 20. After a quick three downs and out that resulted in no positive yardage, the Rangers were forced to punt.

The punt from the fi ve resulted in excel-lent fi eld position for the Vikings and the rout

By Steven KocherspergerIn a season where both the

Mount Vernon and North Posey boys soccer teams have struggled

to fi nd wins, one team was sure to fi nd one when they met head to head Tuesday night at the North Posey soccer fi eld. The team that

came out victorious was the Mount Vernon Wildcats as they defeated their cross county rivals 2-1 in a hard fought game.

Wildcat Michael Cannato got Mount Vernon on the board fi rst as he put a header in the net over Viking goalkeeper Jordan Frymire with 27:06 left in the fi rst half. The Wildcats would take that 1-0 lead into halftime.

Mount Vernon built their lead in the second half of the game when Wildcat Courtland Pace took a beautiful corner kick from Fresh-man Noah Keller and placed the ball into the back of the net for a Wildcat 2-0 lead.

North Posey had several chances and played aggressively in the sec-ond half. Senior Jace Gentil who seemed to have several chances go wide of the net, fi nally got the Vikings on the board as he scored with 10:27 left in the game.

With the score 2-1 the game seemed to get physical and the over aggressive play cost both teams players with yellow cards. That’s the way rivalry games go, especially with teams looking for wins heading into the fi nal stretch of the season. The Wildcats ended up winning the game 2-1 and won not only bragging rights but also gained confi dence as they head into the fi nal week of the regular season.

“Its (the win) a big boost to our confi dence”, Wildcat Coach Travis Kaiser said after the game. “We’ve been getting smacked around a lit-tle during the season. We play some tough schools and play in a tough conference. We have a tough sec-tional and need to get prepared for that as well as we can”. A n d even though the Wildcats are glad to get their third win of the season, Coach Kaiser continues to remind his team that there is still plenty to

work on as they prepare for their sectional. “I’d like to see us move the ball back and forth more in the backfi eld, as well as to see our mid-fi elders check more. When we did that tonight we had something pos-itive go for us every time”, coach Kaiser said. “We are moving in the right direction”.

With Sectionals less than a week away, the Vikings and Wildcats look to improve and prepare for their sectional matchups. The Wild-cats will end their season this week with two road matchups at Reitz this Thursday and at Harrisburg (Ill) on Saturday. The Vikings will fi nish their schedule at Tell City.

}}Cools You DownWhen Things Get HotTM

Exclusively at Peoples FurnitureExclusively at Peoples Furniture

By Dave PearceIt takes a whole lot of things to build a high school sports

program. It takes good parents, committed athletes, good coaches, experience, and a ton of time.

And while everyone would like to see the North Posey youthful girls’ soccer team achieve a high level of success during this season, Coach Scott Butrum knows that while he sees improvement nearly every day, his young players are not going to be able to go out night after night and beat teams that are comprised primarily of upperclassmen who have years and years of experience, often playing together.

But that still has not stopped this year’s team from carving out an 8-5-1 record against some of the area’s better com-petition and giving everyone associated with the program a glimpse of what it can become, providing the elements de-scribed above all fall into place. The 8-5-1 record could well be the best record of any North Posey girls’ soccer team since the inception of the program at this point in the season.

“We had a big and talented freshman class come in this season and they have meshed well with the upperclassmen,” Butrum said. “And this week on senior night, we see that we will lose fi ve seniors but it looks like we will be replacing them with 11 eighth graders who will be coming in as fresh-men next year. That’s not good news for future Viking op-ponents.

But Butrum also knows that if the team is going to im-prove, they are going to have to play as many games as possi-ble against some of the best competition they can play. That’s why he added a rare Wednesday night game to this year’s schedule to give the Vikings a chance to face one of the area’s best teams in the Reitz Panthers.

And the Vikings performed well, at least for a half. After the girls realized that they could play the mighty Panthers to a scoreless half, he substituted freely during the second half and the Panthers took advantage, scoring fi ve goals. But Butrum said the fi rst half proved to him what he needed to see out of his team, particularly since they were facing a team the caliber of Reitz.

“Reitz has a very, very good team,” Butrum complimented the large west side school. “They have predominantly juniors and seniors who have played a lot of soccer and have played together for a long time.”

But in the fi rst half, you wouldn’t have known it. The youthful Lady Vikings did not back down from the challenge. And even though Viking senior goalie Mallory Schmitt was forced to stop a number of shots on goal, the Vikings had proven they can play with some of the best.”

“I had seen all I needed to see,” Butrum said. “And we had a big Pocket Athletic Conference match coming up on Thurs-day night and I wanted to save them a little bit.”

But all in all, the sheer size, speed, and hard-nosed play of the Panthers took its toll on the young Vikings and it would be an injustice to say the hard game against Reitz did not effect the Vikings when the Heritage Hills Patriots came to town on Thursday.

Again, it was a close game much of the way but two nights facing bigger, more experienced squads took its toll on the Lady Vikings. They gave up two goals late to make a close game appear to be lop-sided. But the best thing about fresh-men is that they become sophomores.

The Vikings will have no easy time, this year or any year, as they are in the sectional with established programs such as Gibson Southern and Mater Dei.

“Either of those will be a very tough draw,” Butrum said. But the Reitz Panthers got fi ve goals mostly on Viking substi-

tutes in the second half and the Panthers defeated Mater Dei 3-0. In the second game of the season, an intimidated group of youngsters lost in Evansville to Mater Dei by a score of 10-0. The team lost early-on to Gibson Southern 4-0, giving up all four goals in the fi rst half. That’s a glimpse of how far Butrum and his young team have come.

“My seniors have some experience and I am very proud of them,” Butrum said. “My freshmen and sophomores are just needing that knowledge of the game from them. But I think I have better ball control and foot skills from the younger play-ers and the bulk of the game knowledge and the experience from my upperclassmen.”

Butrum went on to say that he believes, that with the help of a solid team around her, freshman Loryn Willis could set a new standard for scoring goals at North Posey. She has scored in every game and is described by her coach as “a fi nisher.”

Willis had three goals and Brianna Perry added one in this week’s 4-0 whitewashing of Pike Central. Last Wednesday, Willis had two goals, while Maddie Koester and Shelby New-comer each had goals in a 4-1 victory over Evansville Day School.

Mallory Schmitt, senior goalkeeper, is helping some of the younger players develop some of the skills in goal that have helped her become an effective player.

“Maddie Koester is the heart and soul of my center mid-fi eld right now,” Butrum said. “We are building on some of

these girls. MacKenzie Orlik is very fast and I have fi nally found a home for her in the back. She plays very well there.”

But for now, Butrum says he is building and building takes time and some experimentation as some players are playing in positions this year they he believes they will not be playing next year.

But while the coach is building, he also realizes there is soccer to be played this season and his team’s young players have almost a season’s experience under their belts now. And he feels they turned the corner about four or fi ve games ago.

“South Spencer is not a great team but we went up there and fell behind. It is not ever easy to go to someone else’s fi eld and play and we fell behind,” Butrum said. “But when we fought back to win that game 3-1, I saw a big difference in our team, especially the freshmen, as they saw they could fi nd a way to fi ght back and win games like that. From that point, I have seen a big difference, especially in the younger players.”

Butrum realizes that his young players are being pushed around and learning from their mistakes against older, more experienced players. But each night out, they are learning.

“The unity among these girls has just been amazing,” Butrum said of the Vikings. “They simply don’t bicker. They all get along from the player who sees no action to the player who starts every game, they all fi nd a way to get along. That is so important in trying to learn the game better.”

After all, that’s why they call it “building a program.”

By Steven KocherspergerHomecoming is defi ned as “the arrival home of someone who

has been away“ and “the annual return to one’s school for cel-ebration with other alumni.”

The stage was set Friday night. The alumni gathered, the stu-dent section was rocking as always, the community came out for the festivities and the pregame homecoming ceremonies went off without a hitch. Only one thing was left, the Big Eight foot-ball matchup between the Mount Vernon Wildcats and the Boon-ville Pioneers.

And while everything else during Fridays homecoming festiv-ities went smoothly, the game ended in disappointment for those who cheered the Wildcats on as the Pioneers defeated Mount Vernon 36-13. “Frustrating,” that’s the word Wildcat head coach Paul Maier used after the game. “We feel frustrated because I know what we are capable of. We did not come out with the same fi re and enthusiasm we came out with last week. We started of slow and we absolutely can not do that. We have to get that corrected.”

That slow start began for Mount Vernon as Boonville got on the scoreboard fi rst. Pioneer fullback Andrew Arriago scored from the 3 yard line to put the visitors up 7-0 with 5:38 left in the opening quarter. It was all set up because of the great fi eld posi-tion Boonville was able to get.

Field position would be a big part of the opening half as Mount Vernon continued to be on the negative side of the fi eld position battle. “Field position killed us in the fi rst half,” Mount Vernon head coach Paul Maier said. “We couldn’t get out of the shadow of our own endzone.”

And that fi eld position put great pressure on the defense who seemed to keep coming through for the Wildcats in the opening

See CATS, Page B4

Boonville’s Pioneers get Wildcats on ‘Frustrating’ night

ter and throughout the fi rst half. “I think our defense played phenomenal in the fi rst half.”, Maier recounted after the game.”They (Boon-ville) took over the ball two drives inside the 35 and we kept them out. You cant ask anymore from your De-fense”.

But the Wildcats wouldn’t be able to hold the Pioneers out of the endzone forever. With 4:44 left until half-time, Boonville’s Austin Castleman would scamper to the endzone and build the Pioneer lead. The Pioneers would get the two point con-version and went up 15-0. Boonville would score yet again , this time with 1:34 left in the half, as Spencer Woosley caught a touchdown pass for the Pioneers making the score 22-0.

And just when all the homecoming energy seemed to be leaving the stadium, a sign of life appeared for the Wildcats as signal caller River VanZant ran through a wall of defenders and threw a rocket to Senior Craig Dick who took it 57 yards to the endzone and put Mount Ver-non on the board with 1:07 left in the half. After missing the extra point the Wildcats trailed 22-6 at halftime.

The second half began with a Wildcat drive that began in promising fashion as River VanZant threw to Tight End Brian Koch for 13 yards, moving the chains on the very fi rst play of the half. But the offense would see the drive fi zzle out and they had to punt once again

to the visitors. Moving the ball seemed to be a struggle for the Wildcats Friday night. “I don’t think we played well up front. We just didn’t play real well on offense as a whole”, Coach Maier said. And not being able to move the ball down fi eld would be costly to the home team. Boonville capitalized off the punt to move the ball down fi eld and score yet again. Pio-neer Andrew Arriago scored his second touchdown of the game on a 65 yard run from scrimmage putting Boonville ahead 29-6.

But the Wildcats would not give up and continued to work hard and get them-selves back in the game. With 58 seconds left in the third quarter facing a Fourth-and-4 to go situation, the Wildcats took a timeout to set up a play. After the timeout, Senior Brian Koch caught a VanZant pass taking it to the 3 yard line. Two plays later

it was River VanZant diving from the 1 yard line to score, pulling the Cats closer and making it a 29-13 game with just 1.8 seconds left in the third. But Boonville would put it away in the fi -nal quarter. After killing the clock most of the quarter and stopping Mount Vernon from moving the ball, Pioneer An-drew Arriago iced the game with his third touchdown of the contest. Arriago led the game with 200 total yards rushing and three touch-downs for the Pioneers.

The loss drops Mount Ver-non to 2-4 on the season. And the schedule doesn’t do any favors for the Cats. With two highly ranked teams (Ma-ter Dei and Jasper) coming to play at home, and a road game in Princeton, there is a lot of work to do for the

Wildcats before the section-al opener. “The Big 8 and the non conference games we play are always tough”, coach Maier said about the road ahead.” We gotta make a decision. What do we want out of the season?”

The answer to that ques-tion will begin this Friday as the Wildcats play host to the undefeated Mater Dei Wildcats. Mater Dei beat the Bosse Bulldogs 57-14 Friday night. Game time for this Fri-day’s matchup is at 7 p.m..

Before the game the Se-niors of all the fall sports were honored with their par-ents. Wade Mobley and Alex Collins were named Home-coming King and Queen and the homecoming crowd raised over 400 dollars for Riley Hospital. Way to go Mount Vernon!

was on.On the fi rst play from scrimmage, reliable back Wes Har-

ness picked up 15 yards and Alex Goebel then gained fi ve. Then Harness carried to the one where his helmet came off and he had to come out of the game for one play. But Colton Martin had his back as the senior took the hand-off and scored North Posey’s fi rst points at the 9-minute mark. Neidig’s PAT gave the Vikings all the points they would need, but not nearly all they would score.

It would take the Vikings only 1:45 to score again as the Rangers attempted to go to the air. They were unsuccessful again and again were forced to punt from deep in their own territory.

But a bad snap forced the Forest Park punter to fall on the ball at the fi ve yard line where the Vikings took over. Two plays later, Harness picked up his fi rst touchdown of the night and the Vikings were off and running.

The ensuing kick-off was not as deep as the fi rst two but af-ter the Rangers got to their own 27, immediately Goebel came up with a 4-yard sack and the Rangers could not move the ball. They punted again and it appeared it was going to be more of the same.

But if the Ranger fans were looking for a bright spot on the night, it came on the next set of downs. First Alec Werry hit Neidig for 16 yards and a fi rst down at the 38. But on fi rst down, Francis Bohnenkamper stepped in front of Werry’s pass intended again for Neidig and the Rangers had the ball in North Posey territory.

But on fi rst down, Austin Little got through the line for a

loss of four on the tackle as he nearly took the hand-off. On second down, Goebel caught the Rangers attempting to run a reverse and dropped the ball carrier for a loss of four more. Then on third and 18, the Vikings were called for an offside’s penalty leaving the Rangers with a third-and-13.

The Rangers completed the pass to the Viking 25 and there they met stiff resistance.

On fi rst down, the Rangers were shut down and Neidig knocked the pass away on second down. Chris O’Risky got through for a big sack that all but took the Rangers out of fi eld goal position on third down.

Facing four-and-21, the Rangers had nothing to lose and the Vikings took over.

Werry then connected with Jacob Bender who carried the ball to the 37. But on the next play, the Rangers got a sack of their own and after an incomplete pass, the Vikings were forced to punt where the Ranger back called for a fair catch of a high, long Neidig punt at the 16.

And just when it appeared the Rangers might fi nally be get-ting something going their way, Neidig returned the favor and intercepted a second-and-7 pass and took the ball to mid-fi eld. From that point forward, the Rangers simply did not have an answer. It was Harness, then Martin, then Werry on an 18-yard keeper. Then Harness and Martin again. The Rangers then ap-peared to have the run stopped but Werry found Martin in the end zone and it was 21-0.

“It really came down to being just a little of what they give us,” Gengelbach said of the play calling. “We watch the fi lm and Coach (Paul) Rynk does a great job of seeing things and

calling plays into things where we have an advantage. And to-night, we thought we could run a little inside and it takes a little pressure off of Wes, that way, too.”

Less than four minutes later, after the Vikings had again held, Neidig scored on a 19-yard pass play and the Vikings were ahead 28-0 at the half.

“Alec does a good job of reading the defense and he is very methodical out there,” Gengelbach said.. “He studies fi lm and does a good job of looking and knowing where his people are going to be. He doesn’t force many balls.”

The second half was much like the fi rst, with the exception of the fact that after Harness had scored two touchdowns in the quarter, North Posey Coach Joe Gengelbach began to do something he enjoys and got a chance to see how some of his younger players would respond in a game situation.

Although not as quickly, the defense held and back-up quar-terback James Marshall led mostly reserves to the team’s fi nal score of the game with 1:26 remaining in the contest when Lance Inkenbrandt scored on a two-run run on a drive that the reserves had eaten a good portion of the fourth-quarter clock.

“We’ve got some young kids who play very hard,” Gengel-bach said. “It is an experience for them to get in there. Most of them are kids who play on Monday night and they came in there and I thought they did an excellent job. They did what they had to do. The drive they had was about a 96-yard drive and even had a penalty in it they were able to overcome.”

The Vikings fi nished with 419 yards to 63 for the Rangers. The only stat the Vikings did not win was in penalties, where they gave up 50 yards on fi ve penalties. They also lost the se-nior Goebel for next week’s game after he retaliated on some extracurricular activity on the fi eld.

Harness fi nished with 128 yards on 17 carries and three scores while Martin had 51 and a touchdown and Inkenbrandt had 41 and a score. Dylan Wright carried four times for 30 yards and Darren O’Risky carried fi ve times for 29 yards.

Werry was 13-for-21 with the one interception while Mar-shall completed the only pass he threw for 10 yards.

Jace Gentil got in on the action, kicking off fi ve times for an average of 46 yards. He and Neidig split six extra points.

Werry found Martin for fi ve passes, 28 yards and a score while Neidig caught three passes for 44 yards and a score. Marshall and Bender caught a pair of passes apiece while Har-ness and Darren O’Risky each caught one.

By Dave PearceThe North Posey tennis team continued their second-half-

of-the-season improvement this week with a 4-1 win over Pocket Athletic Conference rival Heritage Hills. Later in the week, the Vikings fell to always-tough Loogootee 3-2.

“It has literally two seasons for us,” North Posey Coach Brandon Barrett said. “We started out 0-7 and since then have gone 5-3 to fi nish the season at 5-10.

But the win over Heritage Hills did not come easy. “We thought we had a good shot at winning but they were

a pretty good team,” Barrett said. “We just got on top and just didn’t let them come back.”

With the regular season complete, the sectional draw was scheduled to be held on Monday evening at Princeton High School where the fi rst round of the sectional will be played Wednesday evening, barring rain. The new Princeton High School has six courts and can accommodate the four-team sectional.

Notable of the regular season was Drake Davenport and Griffi n Motz who managed to fi nish No.1 doubles at 7-1 in conference. The team, which began the season 0-4 in the con-ference race, won their last three to 4-4- in the Pocket Athletic Conference race.

In preparation for the sectional, the Vikings hosted Loo-gootee in their fi nal match of the season and dropped a 3-2 decision.

“They were a team that was just about even with us,” Bar-rett said. “They had a really strong No. 1 singles player who was about 6-foot-6 and a pretty good basketball player, too.”

But despite the close match, Barrett said his team never could get any kind of a lead on the Lions.

“We’d go up 2-1 or 3-2 but they came right back and we could never seem to pull away from them,” Barrett said. “No. 1 doubles was so good at Heritage Hills and then just couldn’t get over the hump against the Lions.”

But Barrett thought his No. 2 doubles team played perhaps their best match of the season, losing 6-4, 6-4 to a very solid No. 2 doubles team from Loogootee.

“It was one of the better matches I have seen them play,” Barrett said.

The fi nal results from the Heritage hills match are as fol-lows:

‘Second season’ is much kinder to Vikings

1 2 3 4 FNP 14 6 12 7 39SR 0 0 14 8 22The North Posey jayvee Vikings ran into a bump in the

road on their journey through the 2012 season on Monday night, (September 10), at Huntingburg. The Southridge Raiders took it to North Posey’s reserves and won 39 – 22.

“I felt that Southridge was a little bigger than us and a little quicker than we were,” said jayvee coach Mike Kuhn. “They also seemed to have their share of experienced play-ers,” he added.

That statement was certainly confi rmed in the fi rst quar-ter of play with the host Raiders striking pay dirt in the fi rst three minutes of the fi rst frame on a 57-yard run by sopho-more running back Kody Brown. Michael Boyd added the PAT to make the score 7 – 0 in favor of Southridge. The Raiders added a second touchdown with three minutes left in the fi rst quarter on a 1-yard plunge by junior fullback William Gutgsell. This time sophomore kicker and run-ning back Guadalupe Perez added the PAT kick making the score 14 – 0 Southridge.

“The Raiders were getting through our defense early and their running backs were able to slice and dice a little too easily in that fi rst quarter,” Kuhn said.

The second quarter was just as troublesome for the visi-tors as Southridge scored again this time on a 5-yard touch-down run by Boyd. The PAT was no good making the score 20 – 0 Southridge. Jayvee Coach Patrick Rose made a few adjustments on the defensive line and the Viking defense began to hold the Raiders forcing them to punt twice during the remainder of the period.

“I can’t really blame the defense too much for our early

problems,” said Kuhn. “Our offense was stymied numerous times and plagued by interceptions and muffed exchanges.”

These diffi culties added to Viking woes throughout the game giving Southridge great fi eld position and short fi elds in which to operate. The half ended with the home- stand-ing Raiders up 20 – 0.

At halftime the Vikings tried to regroup so that in the second half they could make a game of it. The “Cardiac Kids” who had won two early season thrillers looked for awhile to have designs on another miraculous comeback. The third quarter scoring began with a Viking touchdown pass from Aaron Droste to Bryce Martin. The lanky sopho-more receiver made several spectacular catches in route to setting up his touchdown catch. Lance Inkenbrandt hauled in a two-point conversion pass from Droste to make the score 20 – 8.

The Vikings scored again just one minute later after a Southridge fumble was recovered by Inkenbrandt on a 26-yard pass from Droste to Martin. This time the 2-point con-version pass was incomplete to make the score 20 – 14 and it seemed the faithful North Posey crowd who had made the long sojourn to Huntingburg might be rewarded.

The temporary euphoria was tempered just 36 seconds later by an 11-yard touchdown run by Perez, which was set up by great fi eld position on a long return after the North Posey kickoff. The PAT kick failed to make the score 26 – 14 in favor of Southridge. The Raiders scored again near the end of the third quarter on a 10-yard run by sophomore running back Justin King and this time the PAT kick was good. With the score now 32 – 14 the two jayvee teams entered the fourth quarter.

The fourth quarter was punctuated by a touchdown for

each team. The Raiders scored fi rst on a 2-yard run by sophomore running Neil Messmer. This time the PAT kick was no good making the score 39 – 14 in favor of South-ridge. The Vikings answered with fi ve minutes to play on a pass from freshman quarterback Preston Reese to sopho-more tight end Drew Cumbee. Cumbee added the 2-point conversion pass from Reese leaping high in the end zone to haul in the ball making the fi nal score Southridge 39, North Posey 22.

“We were able to make some defensive adjustments early in the game to slow down the Raiders,” said jayvee Coach Patrick Rose. “But we obviously have a lot to work on on both sides of the ball.”

Leading the Viking defensive efforts were Lance Inken-brandt with eight tackles, Zach Wargel had six tackles and two assists, Bailey Porter had four tackles and one assist, Bryce Martin had four tackles and one assist, Dusty Grau-lich had three tackles and one assist, and two interceptions.

Coming back from injury was Kaynin Capps. The fresh-man defensive lineman had three tackles. Also leading the Viking charge was Griffi n Weithop who had two tackles and four assists.

“I wanted to mention our student managers who have done a great job for us all season and continue to provide invaluable service on the sidelines during games and at practices,” said Coach Kuhn. “Cody Devine, Ethan Bu-chanan, and Austin Orlik, who is serving as a manager while recovering from an injury, are doing outstanding jobs,” added Coach Rose.

The Vikings, who are now 3 – 1 next play Heritage Hills at home on Monday, September 17 at 6 pm. The results of that contest will appear in next week’s Posey county News.

Viking reserves fall behind early, lose fi nishing touch

By Steven KocherspergerThe boys tennis team at Mount Vernon High School have

had a great week. But what else is new right? In fact the boys have had a great season overall. This week the Wildcat tennis team ended their regular season with three straight wins and bolstered their confi dence and tightened their games as they head into the sectional this week.

On Tuesday the Wildcats played at North High School in Evansville .The matchup was competitive, though you wouldn’t know it looking at the team score. Early in the match it seemed that the score could have been much closer than it was. But the Wildcats fought through and ended up beating North 5-0.

“I appreciated how the guys tightened up their games and played stronger as the match progressed”, Wildcat coach Viki Rueger said. In singles play Tuesday Jevin Redman led the way beating Jordan Greenwell 6-2, 6-3. Ross Canada beat North’s Austin Holmes 4-6,6-4,6-3. Todd Scheffer beat Allen Karch 6-2, 6-4. In doubles the Wildcats continued their sweep. Wildcats Seth Reeves and Luke Steinhart beat Grant Carey and Shloak Vyas 6-2,3-6, 6-4. Logan Brown

and Hunter Wilson defeated Jordan Holmes and Hunter Bennett 6-2,6-2. That win seemed to set the tone for the rest of the week. The very next day the Wildcats traveled to Bosse and beat the Bosse tennis team 5-0 once again. Its a matchup and day Wildcat Austin Krizan won’t soon forget. Krizan, who is not a normal starter for the Varsity team, got the nod and picked up his fi rst ever Varsity win.

Thursday the Mount Vernon boys traveled again to Evansville, this time to Mater Dei, and picked up their third straight win in the week as they beat Mater Dei 4-1. Singles players Jevin Redman and Ross Canada were completely dominate in their matches defeating their opponents 6-0, 6-0.

SAVAH’S EMIL SEARCY AND HIS HORSE “JMK ABSOLUTE” BRING HOME GOLD

• STORY BY PAM ROBINSON • DESIGN BY ZACH STRAW •• PHOTOS COURTESY OF THE AMERICAN QUARTER HORSE ASSOCIATION •

As a young man involved in 4-H halter competi-tion for horses, Savah’s

Emil Searcy dreamed of one day leading a good quarter horse in a national show ring. During the past three months, he’s seen his dream come true beyond his wildest imaginings. At 77 years old, he has shown his purebred palomino quarter horse, a year-ling gelding named JMK Abso-lute, in three 2012 national ama-teur competitions—one in July at Tulsa, Okla., one in August at Amarillo, Texas, and one this month at Murfreesboro, Tenn. The horse stood out as number one in Tulsa and Amarillo and placed in the top three at Mur-freesboro. Indeed, at Tulsa and Amarillo, Lute won a total of four world championships.

“I think I have tears in my eyes,” Searcy said after his most prestigious win at the 2012 Ad-

equan Select World Champion-ship Show with the American Quarter Horse Association, or AQHA, in Amarillo. “If I don’t, I should.”

The amateur showman gives all the credit to his horse, affec-tionately known as “Lute,” and to Lute’s trainer, AQHA Profes-sional Horseman Chris Arentsen.

“I’ve said it before: if it weren’t for Chris, we probably wouldn’t be here,” Searcy states.

The honor accorded to JMK Absolute, Searcy and Arent-sen far exceeds the cash purse awarded, which typically pays for expenses. Much more mean-ingful to Searcy are certain gifts he brought home: the custom-de-signed gold trophy, the Montana

Silversmiths’ gold belt buckle and the Cripple Creek logoed jacket. Their sentimental value is priceless.

“The recognition brings a lot of happiness,” Searcy admits. “Besides winning, I like doing a

good job [as a showman]. Doing a good job means everything to me.”

More precious than gold are the friendships Searcy and his wife Anna Marie have formed. As expected, they speak of Chris Arentsen, one of the fi nest horse trainers in the nation, as if he

were family. Surprisingly, they reveal fondness for their compet-itors also. Of course, they each want to win, but they truly do ap-preciate one another’s showman-ship and the beauty of the horses.

“We enjoy going out to eat and talking with one another,” says Anna Marie. “We have a good time.”

The Searcys have long loved horses. Emil and Anna Marie grew up within mile in

opposite directions of their Sa-vah homestead, where they’ve lived all but six years of their 57-year-marriage. Shortly after they married, they purchased their fi rst registered horse. About the same time, Anna Marie’s dad sold them another horse. They’ve owned horses ever since, even

buying a special horse for their daughter Nelda when she partici-pated in 4-H.

Now Nelda and her hus-band Darrell stay busy with their daughter Shelby in Reitz marching band. In their retire-ment from General Electric, the Searcys depend on companion-ship and recreation from the yearling JMK Absolute and a 12-year-old mare, Anna Marie’s horse, named D.S. Romantic El-egance and affectionately known as “Ellie.” They don’t even mind the trips to Trenton, Ill., about 135 miles from here, to see their boarded horses.

The couple plans to continue showing Lute and perhaps to even help Ellie make a come-back. They’re inspired by the octogenarian horse exhibitors at the shows. One thing’s certain: the Searcys will always present a world class act.

“I think I have tears in my eyes,” Searcy said after his

most prestigious win...

Your Life • The Posey County News

By: Darla “Little” C

olbertThe 1962 class of N

orth Posey held their 50th class reunion on Septem

ber 8th at the R

ed Wagon R

estaurant in Poseyville.

When I entered the room

there was

stars everywhere, and I don’t m

ean m

y classm

ates.

Red,

Black,

and W

hite stars hung from the ceiling. I

wondered w

ho hung all these. I did a

big sigh of relief; after all there was

no ambulance out front w

hen I ar-rived.

My eyes go to the end of the room

and there w

as a large 1962 class fl ag. I found out Judy (C

olbert) Hazle-

wood, our hostess, had m

ade this. I bet Pearison Inc. w

ould give her a job if she w

anted to go back to work.

Displayed on the w

all were old

band uniforms and a 1962 class jack-

et, I know they had to have m

onth balls in the pockets. There w

ere photo album

s and lots of pictures (Even the one from

our class trip to W

ashington D.C

.) There was a N

orth Posey lunch chip...(D

o you remem

ber those?) This w

as among the m

emo-

rabilia. The round tables had candle ar-

rangements on them

. There were

black and red balloons everywhere!

When w

e signed in we w

ere given a special ticket, as w

e’ll fi nd out later w

hy. We received a hot/cold cup, an

ornament, an 8 X

10 silver frame. A

ll w

as engraved with N

orth Posey class of 1962. W

e even had programs!

Now

I’m im

pressed!Finally, I turn and I fi nd the room

is full of handsom

e men and beauti-

ful wom

en; these were m

y classmates

and they’re smiling and laughing.

“You can pay me at the next class re-

union”.W

e all paraded in to have our class picture taken w

hile we all still looked

fresh; yea right!

If that wasn’t som

ething, some had

to sit on the fl oor. That was the fi rst

problem. (You know

what I m

ean….)

Then the photographer wanted the

“mean and lean” (This is a quote); this

was problem

number tw

o. There was

so much discussion on w

hich guys w

ere the mean and lean. W

e fi nally got the picture taken! N

ow w

e’re go-ing to have a picture for our fram

e.O

ur class President How

ard Nichol

gave the welcom

e. Jerry Miser had

prayer prior to the meal. Thank you

to the Red W

agon staff and restaurant for a delicious m

eal.C

andles were lit for our class-

mates that have passed. They are

as follows: A

ndy Welborn, W

endell Sim

mons, Larry W

arren, Fred Cook,

Mari Frances C

ourtier, Alice B

arrett. Susan Law

rence. Danny K

ern. Jim

Kohlm

eyer, Penny William

s, Nancy

Ram

sey and Neal Price.

A prize w

as given to the one who

traveled the furthest; which w

as Bill

Willm

an from C

alifornia. Other con-

tenders for this prize was Jerry M

iser from

Florida; How

ie Nichol from

Texas; and Sandra (Thornburg) Elp-ers from

Florida.There w

as class mate w

ho lived the closest, but he didn’t get a prize. H

e debated whether to w

alk or drive. D

idn’t you Jim N

ash?A

prize was given to the classm

ate w

ho was m

arried the most tim

es. (You read this right). I had a friend w

ho was sw

eating it with three tim

es. O

h, No! The w

inner was fi ve tim

es. N

ow that’s one every ten years since

Bob W

oolston has been out of school. W

ow!!!

A prize w

as given to the one with

the most children to graduate from

N

orth Posey. There was a tie w

ith four each; D

on New

comb and W

il-fred G

oedde. A prize w

as given to the one arriving late. B

eck (Motz)

Lutz got that honor. If we w

ere still in school, she’d been in trouble.

The reunion

was

important

to W

endell Crum

bacher. He gave up

a hog show to be w

ith us….That’s

dedication! We played gam

es and everyone enjoyed that. Team

s were

divided and we had to recognize

1960’s songs. Then it was class triv-

ia. I thought there was going to be a

brawl over a football question. I w

ish A

l Boren w

ould have been there; he w

ould have settled it.N

ow back to those special tickets.

We w

on North Posey T-shirts, aprons,

sweat

shirts, gift

certifi cates for

Lowe’s, W

al-mart, K

ohl’s, Wendy’s,

McD

onald’s, and etc. Am

ong the gifts, a loaf of friendship bread w

as m

ade by our hostess. We needed a

semi-tractor to take all our gifts hom

e. W

e did have one classmate w

ho every tim

e a number w

inning ticket. I’m

thinking if he’s having this much

trouble with num

COMMUNITY STATE BANKOF SOUTHWESTERN INDIANA220 S. Lockwood, P.O. Box 280, Poseyville IN 47633812-874-3641 • Fax 812-422-9884

September 17, 2012

Recently the Board of Directors of CSB State Bank voted to change the bank’s name to Community State Bank of Southwestern Indiana. CSB traces its roots back to about 1900 when a private loan company opened in Cynthiana. About fi ve years later the Cynthiana Banking Company was founded and in 1925 CSB became an Indiana state chartered bank, the Cynthiana State Bank. In 1997, the bank’s name was changed to CSB State Bank due to a branch expansion. The Board of Directors feels that one further change is needed to better defi ne who we are – a Community State Bank of Southwestern Indiana - with four offi ces currently open in Posey County in Cynthiana, Poseyville, St. Philip, and St. Wendel. In addition, we are pleased to announce that a 5th offi ce will soon open in Mt. Vernon at 201 West 4th Street.

Our existing customers will not notice many changes due to this change:

1. Existing customer checks can continue to be used until they are gone and then the new checks that are ordered will be sent with Community State Bank of Southwestern Indiana on them. No customer account numbers will change.

2. Existing debit cards will continue to be used until their expiration date. Just prior to that a new card will be sent with Community State Bank of Southwestern Indiana on it.

3. Soon all bank statements will show the new name, Community State Bank of Southwestern Indiana on them.

4. All existing user ID and passwords can still be used to access the banks on – line banking website and the existing website address www.csbstatebank.com can still be used. A new website address will also be available in the near future that better refl ects the bank’s new name. Both web addresses will direct you to the bank's website.

We’re excited to be able to tell our customers and shareholders about this change. We will continue to provide the same excellent customer service and will continue to support all of the communities in which we are located. Please contact me if you have any questions by calling 812-874-3641 or you can email me at "sbennett@csbstatebank.com".

Sincerely,

Steven A. BennettPresident

They don’t make large country porches like this anymore! Nor do they make kitchens and bedrooms as large as this anymore! This well maintained 4-5 bedroom home with some trees sits on 1.5 acres with lots of country charm, yet is still close to town. The large kitchen is open to a large dining area with plenty of room for a dining room table and a hutch. There’s also room in the kitchen for another table (great for entertaining at holidays). The separate utility room off the kitchen is large enough to hold the included deep freezer (for convenience) as well as the washer/dryer. The 2 car garage with opener and attached carport also has a workbench area

extra storage. How awesome is that? Your lender will have more information on

Like Posey County News, or PCN, owner and editor Dave Pearce, new PCN Sports Editor Steve Kochersperger thrives as a two-career man. Kochersperg-er is already well-known in the community as pastor for Harmo-ny Chapel Church of the Naza-rene in (you guessed it) New Harmony. After talking with him only a few minutes, he reveals his inspiration for working so hard—his only son, Alex.

It’s no exaggeration to say Alex is his dad’s shadow when-ever they are together. A single parent, Kochersperger wants to spend as much time with his son as possible.

Since Kochersperger and his son share a love for all sports, with baseball their favorite, and it was a disappointment to both of them when their favorite college team, Louisville, didn’t win the NCAA championship. Needless to say, Alex approves of his dad’s new second career.

Likewise, he doesn’t mind his dad’s fi rst career. Kochersperger says he received the call from God to ministry when he was 16 years old. After graduating from his hometown Charles-town (Ind.) High School in 1994,

he completed studies at Olivet Nazarene College, going straight from there to Nazarene Theologi-cal Seminary in Kansas City.

During seminary, he managed a homeless shelter in Kansas City. Harmony Chapel is his fi rst pastorate. For the fi ve years he’s served Harmony Chapel, Ko-chersperger has led the church in two major outreach programs: the Wednesday night Caravan program for children and youth and the Clothing Closet, opened now on an individual basis, pri-marily for children. He is hoping to expand the Clothing Closet to operate the same days as the New Harmony Food Pantry.

In addition, Kochersperger serves with Pastor Jason Farrar as manager of the summer youth recreation program for kids, tar-geting 6th through 8th graders. Both gentlemen are active in the New Harmony Ministerial Asso-ciation.

Kochersperger’s parents Tony and Linda Kochersperger have retired to Jeffersonville, Ind. In addition to Steve, they have been blessed with two children, There-sa and James, and their families.

Seven-year-old Alex Kocher-sperger has a heart for all his

family. He is a second grader at Evansville’s Highland Elementa-ry. Not only does he enjoy watch-ing baseball, he is an enthusiastic player of the sport. Except for

recess, Alex loves studying his-tory more than anything else at school.

So far, Kochersperger says covering county sports for PCN

has been a lot of fun, especially since he likes getting to know the teams. He looks forward to mak-ing connections with Posey ath-letes and community members.

New PCN Sports Editor doubles as Harmony Chapel pastor
