BRIEFS Power Outage Saturday

A significant portion of Trenton Municipal Utilities customers were without power Saturday evening as a sagging line caused an outage.

According to Trenton City Administrator/Utility Director Ron Urton, the outage affected an area roughly from 28th Street on the north to Ninth Street on the south and from Princeton Road/Harris Avenue on the west to Highway 65 on the east. The outage occurred at around 6:20 p.m. and power was restored to all customers at about 10:40 p.m. The cause was traced to an Evergy line that sagged down onto one of TMU’s lines, causing a breaker to open. The breaker wouldn’t close because there was electricity backfeeding onto the circuit. Urton said TMU crews had a hard time locating the problem due to the darkness.

Urton said the city’s electric crew spent both Friday and Saturday handling power outages and noted that customers were kept appraised of the Saturday situation through public information notices from Grundy County Emergency Management Director Glen Briggs.

The Grundy County Health Department is seeing a slight uptick in those seeking a COVID-19 vaccine, including those seeking a booster shot.

GCHD Administrator Elizabeth Gibson said approval of the Pfizer vaccine by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has led to an increase in those seeking the vaccine and calls for a booster shot have also been coming in. She noted that vaccine clinics have had a steady stream of those seeking to innoculate themselves against the virus, which has now been listed as the cause of death for 49 Grundy County residents since the pandemic began in March 2020. There are currently 31 active cases, bringing the county’s total to 1,636 cases since the pandemic began.

Ms. Gibson reported the health department is getting several calls about testing. Tests are available at Hy-Vee, Wright Memorial Hospital and Mosaic Life Care but those facilities may require symptoms to be present or for the person to see a doctor prior to the test being administered. Over the counter home tests, Ms. Gibson said, are accurate if directions are followed and the specimen is of good quality.

Ms. Gibson noted that information will be announced soon as to when seasonal flu vaccine will be available through the health department.

Dog Ordinance On Agenda

The Administrative Committee of the Trenton City Council will meet at 7 p.m. tonight (Tuesday, Sept. 21) at city hall. The meeting is open to the public but can also be accessed via at Zoom https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83979435384.

MILAN WILDCATS 46, PRINCETON TIGERS 14

Milan Too Big For Tigers To Handle Tigers Allow 486 Yards On The Ground

GABE NOVAK runs toward the end zone on the first of two touchdowns on the night for the sophomore running back. Novak finished Trenton’s 26-0 win Friday night with 121 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries.

HIGH TURNOVER Bulldogs Grab Three Interceptions, Shut Out Putnam County Gabe Novak thought he had an interception early in the Trenton Bulldogs’ Homecoming match-up with Putnam County at C.F. Russell Stadium Friday night. He had the ball in his hands, but when he came down it popped free for a less-harmful incomplete pass.

Not much later, though, Novak had his turnover, making good on an interception and returning it to the 25. A couple of plays after, he cashed in with a five-yard touchdown run to help spur the Bulldogs to a 26-0 victory over the Midgets.

“I was kind of upset because the first one was in my hands for a split second and I dropped it,” Novak said. “But I came back and got one so it was just kind of like redemption.”

Novak’s interception was one of three captured by the Trenton secondary. Nate Burkeybile had one that he returned for a touchdown and Tucker Otto grabbed one as the Bulldogs pitched a shutout in front of the Homecoming crowd.

It was an impressive night for a unit that was severely tested in the first half of last week’s win over Princeton. The Bulldog secondary struggled mightily against Tiger quarterback Logan Smith in the first two quarters, but an adjustment at halftime allowed Trenton to start a shutout streak that now stands at six quarters without allowing a point to the opposition.

“I think Princeton kind of woke us up a little bit last week,” Trenton

The Princeton Tigers had another tough week on Friday as the Milan Wildcats rushed all over Eddie Allen Field en route to a 46-14 victory.

The Tigers would lead 87 early in the second quarter after Andrew Rhoades punched in a three-yard touchdown run and ran in the 2-point conversion as well. The advantage would be short lived, however, as Milan reeled off 25 unanswered points to close the half and go into the locker room up 32-8 at the break.

Milan tacked on two scores in the third quarter before Princeton closed the scoring on Rhoades’ second touchdown of the night, this one on a 1-yard run.

Princeton struggled to maintain the Milan backs, especially Deric Doporto, as the Wildcats piled up 486 yards on the ground in the win.

“I won't fault the effort of our kids one bit,” Princeton head coach Nathan Powell said. “We are still coming in every week with a great mindset and we are seeing improvement in what we're teaching, but our biggest problem tonight was physics. We aren’t able to match up with big physical backs at all.

Our kids did a great job executing our game plan defensively, but Doporto is a dude and simply overpowered us. We’ve had that same problem for three weeks now with Midway, Trenton and now Milan.

Our kids know the plays from our practices all week and get lined up correctly, but 200-plus pound running backs are just more than we can handle.

“We understand that and knew we would have trouble with big, physical teams this season. Instead of harping on something that we can't control — our size — we’re coaching the heck out of our kids on fundamentals and doing their jobs correctly and we have seen huge improvements in those things since week 1.”

For the Tigers, Rhoades led the way with 47 rushing yards and his two touchdowns on 14 carries. Logan Smith completed 7 of 15 passes for 114 yards and was intercepted once. Talan Holt was again his prefered target, hauling in 3 catches for 72 yards. Rhoades had 2 receptions for 22 yards.

The loss dropped Princeton to 0-4 overall and 0-2 in Grand River Conference play while Milan improved to 2-2 and 2-0 in the league.

Princeton will look to bounce back next week as the Tigers travel to Unionville to take on the Midgets, also 0-2 in GRC play. Milan, meanwhile, will host Trenton.

NATE BURKEYBILE sprints toward the end zone for a touchdown after grabbing one of Trenton’s three interceptions in Friday night’s 26-0 Homecoming win at C.F. Russell Stadium.

head coach Kevin Hixson said. “We know there are a couple of teams in the conference that will throw it at you a little bit and it was just a calling — we have to get better in our pass defense. It had to get better and we really made that an emphasis this week in practice. They did a better job, I thought.”

Trenton opened the scoring with a 21-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Coleman Griffin to Otto.

Otto made the catch not much more than a yard ahead of the line of

scrimmage then raced down the sideline, diving to the pylon for the score. Trenton’s offense, which was up and down on the night, wouldn’t score again until Novak’s interception set the Bulldogs up in the red zone with just over four minutes left in the half.

Burkeybile’s pick-six immediately followed and sent Trenton into the locker room at halftime, up 200.

POLO PANTHERS 13, GALLATIN BULLDOGS 12

Late Scores Doom Gallatin Polo Strikes Twice In Final Seven Minutes Friday night in Polo the Gallatin Bulldogs found themselves in a defensive war with the host Panthers.

It was a war Gallatin won for all but the final seven minutes.

The Bulldogs held a 120 lead late, but Polo scored twice in the final seven minutes of the game, connecting on one-of-two point-after kicks to send Gallatin home with a heartbreaking 13-12 loss.

Up 12-0 Gallatin was on the move, looking to put

the game away. A Bulldog fumble, however, reversed the course of the game. The Panthers used the turnover to spark their first scoring drive of the night, cutting the Gallatin lead in half.

The Bulldogs were able to recover the Polo onside kick attempt, but the ensuing drive stalled out and Gallatin turned the ball over on downs in Polo territory.

Aided by some costly penalty yards, Polo marched down the field again, scoring to tie the game and connecting on the point-after kick to go in front for the first time all night with 1:20 left in the game.

Gallatin wasn’t done yet,

though. The Bulldogs went into their two minute offense, getting the ball to the 7-yard line with 3 seconds left. There Gallatin attempted a would-be, gamewinning field goal but the kick sailed wide right, sending Polo off as the winners.

“I’m proud of the way we fought throughout the game,” Gallatin head coach Patrick Treece said. “We had to overcome a lot but at the end of the day we just made too many mistakes to win the football game.”

Gallatin got its first touchdown in the third quarter on a touchdown pass from quarterback Peyton Baker to Isaac Bird.

GRC SOFTBALL

TRENTON

Six-Run Second Too Much To Overcome Bulldogs Limited To A Single Run In Latest Loss POLO 11 TRENTON 1 (6 INN.) It was a rough night for the Trenton High School softball team on Thursday as the Bulldogs were handed an 11-1 loss on the road in Polo. The defeat dropped Trenton to 5-11 overall and just 1-5 in Grand River Conference play.

Trenton was in trouble early as Polo chased starter Avery Clark in the second inning after the left-hander yielded seven runs, five earned, on five hits and five walks without a strikeout.

One of Polo’s runs came in the first but the real damage was done in a six-run second for the host Panthers.

Clark was replaced by Emma Roberts after recording just one out in

the second.

Roberts would be only marginally better as Polo continued to find runs here and there the rest of the way. Roberts surrendered four runs, three earned, on six hits and two walks while striking out two in three and two-thirds innings.

In the field Trenton didn’t exactly do a whole lot to back its pitchers as Bulldog fielders committed five errors in the loss.

Trenton got its lone run in the third inning as Shay Westerhof singled with one out and moved to third when Polo’s centerfielder mishandled a ball off the bat of Gracyn Rongey.

Westerhof then came home on a wild pitch with Morgan King in the box for the Bulldogs.

Trenton had just four hits in the contest. In addition to Westerhof’s single, King, Teya Cooksey and Jena Harris all had singles as well to round out the

Trenton attack.

The Bulldogs were looking to bounce back on Monday with a non-conference road trip to Lawson.

Trenton will be back in conference play tonight, traveling to Milan to take on the Wildcats at 5:30 p.m.

JUNIOR VARSITY Trenton’s junior varsity lost 2-1 in Polo. Katelyn Clark and Tymber Cooksey were each 1-for-1 with a double in the loss.

Gallatin simply couldn’t get its offense up and running against the Wolverines, collecting just three hits in the contest. AnnaBelle Ball, Betty Rogers and Karydon Jones each had one hit, but Gallatin could never string enough offense together to create a run.

rough go as well. In fact, Ball yielded just one hit in the entire seven-inning contest.

But an error helped things snowball in the fourth and Maysville scratched out what would be the only two runs of the game in that inning.

“We struggled to get the bats going tonight and Maysville’s pitcher did a great job keeping us off balance,” Gallatin head coach Penny Gardner said. “We had one fielding error that haunted us a little, but overall we played really well.”

Gallatin dropped to 5-4 overall on the season with the loss and 2-4 in Grand River Conference play.

Defense Shows The Way In Victory

[DEFENSE, from Page 2] down on a 47-yard run on the first possession of the second half and that would be it the rest of the way as neither team put the ball in the end zone again.

That was alright for Trenton as its defense dominated Putnam County, particularly in the trenches. On nearly every play, the Midgets’ offensive line was sent reeling, forcing Putnam’s quarterback into a multitude of pressured throws on the run.

“We kind of bent a little bit on defense, but we didn’t break,” Hixson said.

“We didn’t want (Putnam County) to score much, that was kind of one of our team goals and then we wanted to score on defense.

(Burkeybile’s defensive touchdown) was huge for us.

“Gabe Stark is not a very big kid, but he comes off the ball hard and so fast.

You really have to block that kid. Then you have [Trevor Murphy] in the middle with him and Kaden [Owen] and [Caleb Johnson] and they do a great job of setting the edge for us. We can still get better, that’s the thing. We haven’t played a perfect game or a flawless game, we can still get better.”

Offensively, Trenton turned the ball over four times — though Hixson adamantly argued his player was down before the ball was dislodged on the last one — and the Bulldogs gained just 285 yards on the night.

There were some individual highlights, though.

Novak had a career night, rushing for 121 yards and his two touchdowns on just 12 carries. That made for an average of over 10 yards per carry, thanks in large part to his long run he busted to open the second

half and close the scoring for the Bulldogs.

“The guys that pulled and blocked, they made big holes for me to cut up-field all night,” Novak said.

“The wideout had a great block on the corner, too [on the 47-yard touchdown run to open the second half]. I was happy and really proud of my team at the same time because usually we don’t get [that play] off and we got it this time.”

Sam Gibson broke the century mark once again, rushing for 103 yards on 23 carries. He now sits at 646 yards on the season, just four games in.

“We are starting to gel,” Hixson said. “We made some mistakes out here tonight on offense, but I am really proud of the effort that we put in. We told (Novak) after the week that Sam had last week, people are going to try and stay stout up the middle. We had

opportunities off the edge a couple of times and Gabe was able to bust a long one.”

Trenton now turns its attention to the Milan Wildcats. Like the Bulldogs, Milan suffered back-toback non-conference losses to start the season before picking up big wins over Putnam County and Princeton. The two squads will now come to a head in a battle to remain atop the Grand River Conference standings.

Trenton, 2-2 overall, 2-0 GRC, will travel to Milan Friday night, the Bulldogs’ first road trip since week 1 when they were at Brookfield.

“Milan is a good ballclub,” Hixson said. “The [Deric] Doporto kid is a big kid and he is a hard runner.

They are pretty good up front, they have some kids that can block, and their quarterback isn’t bad. They

Maysville is 1-3 overall and 0-2 in the GRC, coming off a 14-0 loss at South Harrison on Friday. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Volleyball Team 0-4 At Lathrop Tourney Trenton Drops Home Match With Kirksville The Trenton High School volleyball team had a rough day at the Lathrop Tournament, going 0-4 on the day to fall to 2-9 overall on the season.

Trenton fell three times in pool play before being eliminated by the host Mules in bracket play, 2521, 25-19, 25-15.

Trenton’s pool play losses came against MidBuchanan, 25-23, 25-20; East Buchanan, 25-7, 2512 and Plattsburg, 25-20, 25-16.

“As our scores kind of show, we had a rollercoaster of a day,” Trenton head coach Brad Ewald said. “Overall, though, I saw some really good things that we can hopefully capitalize on and start to do more consistently.”

KIRKSVILLE 3, TRENTON 0 On Thursday, the Trenton High School volleyball team suffered a 25-8, 2513, 25-12 loss to Kirksville Mid-States will STILL WAIVE the $150 installation fee for those who sign up NOW!

at home in the THS gym. A slow start cost Trenton any shot of winning the first game and it gave Kirksville all the momentum it needed to cruise to wins in the second and third games as well.

“It was a really rough start that got a little better, with moments of real promise,” Ewald said. “It seems that we still have a mental blockade up against teams that our program has struggled with in the past.

However, it’s a hurdle that we are going to continue to push through and we will have some really good opportunities to build that confidence in the next couple weeks.”

Trenton was led by Lilly Berti who had five digs and three kills in the loss. Makenzee Epperson had five digs as well and added two aces and Ava Simpson handed out four assists.

The Bulldogs are on the road today (Tuesday), traveling to Hamilton to take on the Hornets, whom Trenton defeated 25-8, 257, 25-15 back on Sept. 13.

Action is schedule to begin at 5 o’clock.

She drove back home on Labor Day. Betty Gardner’s daughter, Jan Hoke of Independence and her granddaughter, Brittany McCullough of South Carolina, came on Wednesday, Sept. 1, to celebrate Betty’s 95th birthday with food and gifts. On Thursday, Jackie Owens came and brought cake and food and visited a while. Carol Wilford stopped by Betty's on Friday evening, Sept. 3.

On Saturday, Sept. 4, guests in the home of Dan and Carol Wilford were Naomi Campbell and her son, Dustin of Marshall, John Wilford of Gladstone and Ingrid Yang of Lee’s Summit. They celebrated Carol’s birthday, picked apples from a small apple tree, played a card game and helped with some projects around the farm.

Vickie Bowe met Mary and Rich Binney of Lee’s Summit on Friday afternoon, Sept. 10 to visit Jean Hughes at Sunnyview.

Charles and Vickie met Charles’ sister, Betty Freeman, on Sunday, Sept. 12 for lunch in Trenton.

R-T Owners Speak To Rotary Club Sept. 16 The new owners of the Trenton RepublicanTimes/Green Hills Weekly shopper presented the program at the Thursday, Sept.

16 meeting of the Trenton Rotary Club. Brian Upton presided at the meeting, Joe McDonald gave the prayer and Dave Bain was the sergeant at arms.

Jamey and D’Anna Honeycutt took ownership of the Republican-Times/ Green Hills Weekly on Sept. 1. They also own the Clinton County Leader newspaper at Plattsburg.

The Honeycutts have been in the newspaper business for over 30 years, with Jamey having served as publisher of the Cameron newspaper for 10 years. It was their time in Cameron which led the couple to find a newspaper to purchase in the northwest Missouri area. Jamey said that Wendell Lenhart, owner of the Republican-Times, and Steve Tinnen, owner of the Clinton County newspaper, had been welcoming to the couple when they came to

the area and made the transition to new ownership “very easy.” He said that local ownership is important in keeping smaller newspapers vibrant, noting that many have gone out of business because of being purchased by large groups who do not understand “local news.” He said small communities still want to have a newspaper that is the community’s “one-stop shop” for information. He said readers trust locallyowned newspapers, knowing they have to be accountable because those who work there “are their friends and neighbors.”

D’Anna said the couple’s goal is to provide the community with a good news source as well as providing a good advertising base and giving back to the community. He said Lenhart will be serving as “publisher emeritus” and will continue writing a column for the newspaper. The current staff will also be remaining in place, continuing to focus on

local news coverage with emphasis on Trenton and Grundy County.

During the business meeting, final plans were made for the Sept. 18 drive-through fish fry at the FFA cookshack. An update was given on the Missouri Day Parade activities on Oct. 16, with letters being sent to previous flag sponsors. Persons wanting to sponsor a U.S. or Missouri flag to be flown during the parade can contact Chris Hoffman. The cost is $50 for a three-year sponsorship, with sponsors being able to designate the purchase in memory of or in honor of specific individuals.

There will be no noon meeting on Thursday, Sept.

23, with the meeting being at 6 p.m. at the home of Joe DeVorss. Members will tour DeVorss’ chestnut tree farm, then hold a hamburger/hot dog cookout.

Those signing up to attend are asked to bring a side dish, their own drink and a lawn chair for seating.

The Mid-America Trial Team held its annual Quarry Cup over the weekend west of Trenton. The event is a non-speed competition that emphasizes skill and agility on motorcycles - both gas-powered and electric - that are seatless. See Friday’s Republican-Times for a full story on the event and the rise in popularity of trial riding.

Parent Family Dear Single Parent in a Two-Parent Family: I believe that you're correct that he is immature and selfish, though communication is the key to understanding why he is acting this way.

Some people try to push the limits about what is acceptable until they are corrected, and if this is what he is doing, he will not recognize it until you speak with him.

You need to sit down with him and talk with him about how his constant travel and neglect makes you and your family feel. Ask him for more attention to your needs. You will want to form a compromise that allows him to still spend time on trips with friends but carves out time for you and the children. If that doesn't work, then add insensitive to immature and selfish, and get into couples counseling.

Dear Annie: My husband and I have been together for 28 years. He's a very sweet and loving man, but his watching other women really bothers me. It happens whenever we're out together, even in church!

I know there will always

Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married for nearly three decades. Up until seven years ago, my husband, who is very sensitive, had a difficult time making friends. Oh, he's super funny, charismatic and adventurous, but he struggled outside the home.

Then he started finding groups of guys who were as adventurous and fun as he was. However, my husband has always been self-centered and took off on loads of trips.

For the past seven years, it has been trip after trip of four to seven days. He asks me to celebrate his kids' birthdays, and sometimes he doesn't even consider that his kids are on winter or spring vacation -- because he always seems to make other plans.

My kids are resentful, and I'm tired of making excuses.

I'm not unhappy or looking for a divorce. Should I just continue to let this go? He's not open to change, even if it could affect his family relationships. I'm going with immature and selfish because his behavior makes no sense.

be women who are betterlooking or better built; but it's really demeaning and leaves me with such an empty feeling. I've talked to him about this, and he doesn't seem to take my concerns seriously. A simple glance, not a problem, but to continue watching is just too much.

What do I do? Do I keep smiling and pretend not to notice? What can I do? At this point, I don't like going out. -- Feeling Insignificant in Florida Dear Feeling Insignificant in Florida: On a positive note, wandering eyes are better than wandering hands. I am glad that you aren't concerned that something more serious is happening, which implies that the foundation of your marriage is strong.

Given that, you should be able to have a direct conversation with your husband.

Let him know that this makes you feel insignificant to him and that it hurts. Understand that he will likely continue to notice attractive people but that he shouldn't look more than a simple glance. Offer to come up with a cue that will recall his attention if he lapses, such as a tug at his hand. It will likely take a bit of training because he probably isn't aware that he's even staring.

UK trucker shortage Britain can’t keep on trucking.

The country’s shortage of truck drivers is being blamed for empty supermarket shelves and even missing milkshakes at McDonald’s. Company bosses have warned that shortages could even affect the supply of festive products at Christmas.

The double whammy of Brexit and the coronavirus pandemic means that the U.K. is short tens of thousands of truck drivers, according to government figures.

Britain’s exit from the European Union at the end of last year has

made it harder for the bloc’s citizens to work in the U.K. Meanwhile, tax changes and the cancellation of truck driver licensing tests because of COVID-19 prompted many other EU citizens to return home.

At the same time, trucking has become less attractive to young people as a career because of the anti-social hours and falling pay. In response, companies are hiking pay and offering sign-up bonuses.

What it all means for British consumers is that they’ll likely have to pay higher prices at the checkout in the near future.
