New surveys a step toward fixing water issues in Hardin

By KRIS SCHEFFEL Calhoun News-Herald Hardin residents this week are being sent a survey by Heneghan and Associates, a civil engineering firm, regarding the water quality in the village.

Residents, such as Paul Frazier, have evidence of murky, brown water pouring from taps.

Emily Fortschneider, an engineering technician for Heneghan, said that Hardin has experienced several water main breaks.

“They have very dark colored water from time to time,� Fortschneider said of Hardin. “The water system is deteriorating. They incur a lot of water main breaks.�

As a result, Hardin has experienced several boil orders in the past.

Forschneider said it has even resulted in early dismissals for students. “Boil orders are hard on nursing homes and children,� she said.

The surveys are the first step in addressing the problem. By filling out the surveys, residents will not only be able to relay their experiences, but will

also enable the village to apply for two grants that will fund the necessary upgrades and repairs.

Specifically, they will address issues with the water mains, pipe valves and water hydrants.

The grants include the Rural Development Water and Waste and the Community Development Block Grant program. “The Rural Development Water and Waste is a loan grant split program,�

Forschneider said. “To qualify, one of the things is proving that you have a threat to safety. The goal is to achieve

as much grant funding as possible.�

In order to do this, Heneghan and Associates is asking residents to fill out the two enclosed surveys— one for each grant. This is vital as the grant requires 90 percent of residents to respond. “If they don’t, the next step is Heneghan knocking on doors,�

Forschneider said.

The surveys are completely confidential and should be sent in by the end of November. If there are questions, residents can reach Forchneider or her associates at 618-498-6418.

Ducks Unlimited restoring 500 acres at wildlife refuge Among the Ducks Unlimited’s projects in motion to improve the wetlands is land at the Two Rivers National Wildlife Refuge.

Ducks Unlimited, a non-profit dedicated to the conservation of wetlands and associated upland habitats for waterfowl and other wildlife, is restoring approximately 500 acres of moist soil and hemimarsh wetland.

The confluence region of the Mississippi, Missouri and Illinois rivers is one of North America’s busiest corridors for migrating ducks, according to a news release.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) established the Two Rivers National Wildlife Refuge more than 60 years ago as a migratory bird refuge.

Today, its 9,000 acres of floodplain habitat is at the meeting of the Illinois and Mississippi rivers.

The refuge is surrounded by more than 20,000 acres of floodplain wetlands managed by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. In 2017, waterfowl numbers on the refuge peaked at more than 300,000 ducks.

Fiber optic groundbreaking ushers in 21st century

By KRIS SCHEFFEL Calhoun News-Herald It’s a new era for Calhoun schools that will now receive 21st century connectivity with the installation of a fiber optic network. The new era was ushered in Thursday, Oct. 10 with a groundbreaking ceremony at Calhoun Elementary School.

However, this weekend’s Old Settlers Days festivities served as more than that for groups like the North Calhoun Fire District which relies on the event to raise much-needed funds.

The event began in the early 1980s. North Calhoun Fire Chief Gary Hall said the fire district has been a part of the Settler’s

CALHOUN NEWS-HERALD All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.

The project has been years in the making with the Illinois Electric Cooperative leading the charge. The Cooperative has been dedicated, since its founding in 1936, to bringing electric services to the rural counties of Illinois. U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Illinois, made this history a focus of his speech citing the first time farmers in Milford received electricity via the Cooperative. “Up until then, they did not have electricity,� Durbin said. “The Illinois electric company was part of that. It literally changed the lives of farm families in Illinois.�

The project, Calhoun Superintendent Kate Sievers said, was the result of cumulative efforts at the local, state and federal levels. For two years, the county has struggled to secure grant funding for the project. Sievers said it was Durbin who “opened up the ability to write grants� after discussions with the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), a independent nonprofit associated with the Federal Communications Commission.

The state was then able to match the grant money provided by USAC with the Cooperative winning the bid for the project. “Calhoun County was the highest priority for me... The highest priority in the state,� Durbin said. “Calhoun didn’t have the same things as the surrounding counties.�

Old Settlers Days serves as fundraiser for fire house

Days since those earliest years. “Whatever we make here will help the fire department with whatever they need,� Hall said. “It’s our own little thing that we do. This is our main fundraiser for the year.�

Patrons of the tan Fire District tent often left with a fish sandwich, a staple of the tent, but not before leaving a donation in one of the many firefighter boots.

These donations were even more critical this year following the devastation of the flood.

Bruce Giffin, president of the Cooperative, said that Calhoun posed a different challenge compared to other rural areas in the state. Calhoun, unlike areas in Central Illinois, cannot utilize fixed wireless internet because of its landscape. Fixed wireless internet sends signals via transmitters; however, it is best suited to flatter environments like that of Morgan County. “You can’t do line of sight in Calhoun,�

Giffin said. “You have to do fiber optic.�

The schools are just a starting point for Calhoun County, with the county government shortly to follow. The fiber optic’s main line runs from Pearl to Brussels with lines expanding from it like the roots of a tree.

Giffin noted the funds are unable to be “used for Ameren consumers.�

Invasive critters just keep on coming Wildlife r e n n u R e Ridg

By BILL HOAGLAND I have written in previous columns about specific animals that were not native to North America who, in the past twenty years or so, have “invaded� North America and are in the process of killing our native wildlife and otherwise ruining our precious countryside.

Examples of these invaders include the Asian carp, the Burmese python and the African killer bees. Unfortunately, more invasive critters just keep on coming and worse yet, they usually have no natural enemies here so their populations tend to explode.

Here are some new arrivals to our shores: the northern snakehead fish; the green iguana lizard; the Nile monitor lizard; the Argentine black and white tegu lizard and the spotted lantern fly.

So let’s take a brief look at each of these “invaders� and the damage they are causing.

The northern snakehead fish is probably the most controversial of these critters. This fish came from Asia. Apparently, an Asian immigrant released several of these fish near his home in Florida because the fish supposedly has “mystic powers.�

Unfortunately, one female snakehead fish can spawn 100,000 eggs and now several states have a serious problem because of it. The snakehead fish has lungs in addition to gills, which means it can survive for extended periods of time out of water. It also has large

lateral fins that allow it to “walk� on land. This means it is amphibious—that it can move across land from one body of water to another.

The problem is that the northern snakehead fish is very destructive to natural fisheries, similar to what the Asian carp has done in our neck of the woods, and there does not seem to be an effective method to control it as it moves inland. Within the past week, for example, authorities in Georgia issued an order to fisherman to kill all snakehead fish that they catch.

The green iguana lizard is invading southern Florida and has become a serious nuisance. They originally came from South America and were brought here thanks to the exotic pet folks. It is estimated that in just one year, more than 800,000 were imported into this country.

These lizards grow to four feet in length and weigh as much as 20 pounds; some are even 6 feet in length.

They reproduce quickly and have overrun subdivisions, eating their way through gardens and landscaped areas. They also have a tendency to fall out of trees when it is cold, landing on your new BMW with a thud— great. The state of Florida is now encouraging residents to kill them on sight.

The Nile monitor lizard is a really nasty animal. They are originally from Africa and again, are here because of the exotic pet trade. These guys grow to a length of 7 feet and 25 pounds. They are

C H R O N IC L E S

extremely aggressive and have been known to eat not only birds and other wildlife, but also dogs and cats.

Then we have the Argentine black and white tegu lizard.

Obviously, they are from South America and again, we can thank the exotic pet folks. These guys also are big dudes—up to 4 feet in length and like the others, reproduce quickly, with the female laying 35 eggs at a time.

As reptiles go, they are extremely intelligent. They love to eat fruit, wildlife eggs, birds and small animals. The life span of a tegu in the wild is between 15 and 20 years. Last month, authorities in Georgia have issued a “kill on sight� for these critters too.

Next, we have the spotted lantern fly, who first showed up in 2014 from Asia, presumably thanks to international shipments of fruits and vegetables. They love to swarm on trees and plants, sucking all the moisture out of those trees and plants and killing them in the process. They are killing grape vineyards, fruit trees and vegetable gardens in Pennsylvania as they move west. We will be hearing a lot more about these critters next spring, when the eggs

being laid now hatch (If you want to see a swarm of lantern flies on a tree, click on YouTube and imagine these guys in your backyard).

Finally, we have the red-bellied piranha—the vicious, man-eating fish of South America.

They have not taken root yet, but several were caught a month ago in a popular swimming lake by fishermen in British Columbia.

The piranha will not survive the Canadian winter, but if there are idiots releasing them in Canada, there are idiots thinking about doing the same thing here in the States.

Maybe persons caught releasing piranhas should be ordered to “skinny dip� in those same waters; that would definitely make an environmental anarchist think twice about that idea. ––––––––––––––––––– Q Bill Hoagland has practiced law in Alton for more than 50 years, but he has spent more than 70 years hunting, fishing and generally being in the great outdoors. His wife, Annie, shares his love of the outdoor life.

(Continued from A1) Ducks Unlimited and the USFWS will restore and enhance unused agricultural fields at Two Rivers by installing berms, watermanagement structures and pumps to allow refuge staff to mimic historic natural flooding.

This will create moistsoil habitat at the preferred water depths of a foot or less for foraging waterfowl and shorebirds. “As Ducks Unlimited looks to expand our conservation efforts northward along the Mississippi over the next few years, this Two Rivers project in the heart of our Confluence Priority Area is the perfect stepping-off

point to expand our Upper Mississippi conservation program,� Michael Sertle, Ducks Unlimited regional biologist in Illinois, said.

Aside from providing broad biological dinner plates for foraging waterfowl, the wetlands in the Confluence Region are critical for holding rainwater and preventing flooding. A lack of confluence wetlands made flooding disasters like those of 1993 much worse.

During that historic flood, more than 1,000 flood protection levees failed, 70,000 buildings were damaged and 50 people lost their lives.

The Two Rivers project is expected to be complete in 2020.

Fiber optic (Continued from A1) a map highlights which areas Calhoun residents need to sign easements.

For the schools, in particular, fiber optic will prove revolutionary. As the curriculum has adapted to technological advances, schools like Calhoun are finding themselves unable to provide the same opportunities as other students in the state. “We didn’t have the bandwidth to do the state testing online,� Sievers said. “It’s the small things that people don’t think about.�

Faster internet speeds will be welcoming students after the winter break. “Finally, you don’t have to sit in the parking lot of the library trying to see if you can get your laptop to work,� Durbin said.

This is a starting point for a wider rollout of fiber optic to the community enabling students, farmers and residents alike to experience a now vital service. “I can’t thank them enough,� Sievers said. “It is a game changer for our lives here in Calhoun County.�

Outdoor Truths: Gary Miller

‘Thoughts, prayers’ have move impact than is believed I wrote about the lack of rain a few weeks ago.

My little food plot needed a drink so bad. It still does, but the drought continues. And it’s probably too late now anyway.

Something growing in the middle of October seems unlikely.

I did all that I could do. I needed God to send the rain.

He hasn’t.

I can only pray he does. I guess it’s that “thoughts and prayers� thing. But it looks like my food plot doesn’t lack the thoughts and prayers. It looks like, maybe, I’m being shown how bad it really would be without what God does during a normal year.

There are so many today who are bemoaning, criticizing, and even scoffing whenever someone offers “thoughts and prayers.� Their argument is that it is an excuse for inac-

tivity.

I completely understand what they mean, especially the “thought� part of the “thoughts and prayers� offering. What do my thoughts toward you, or anyone, actually accomplish?

The “prayer� part is something altogether different, if prayer matters. But even in that, I understand the criticism.

The thinking is this — just as I had to plant my field before God could water it — we all must do our part in other areas before God can do his part as well.

For some reason, however, it doesn’t feel like the critics are looking for a partnership with God. It feels more as if they think prayer has very little or no effect on anything going on — like it hasn’t mattered in the past, and it doesn’t matter now.

So, let’s forgo the prayer thing

Alex Prokuski, wife of firefighter Chase Prokuski, described the challenges for the firefighters during those months. “Most of them had to boat to work and emergencies,� she said.

Currently, the fire department is using tents given by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to park their firetrucks under, but it is far from a permanent solution. With the temperatures dropping, Hall said the pressure to construct a new firehouse is mounting as the tents will be unable to bear any snowfall and the trucks unable to bear the cold.

Local residents have pitched in by giving the fire department access to

and just take action.

I hope I’m wrong in my assessment. But have you ever thought that perhaps what is going on now is the result of people’s ongoing prayers?

I mean have you ever thought that perhaps there would be more violence and more catastrophes and more suffering, if not for those who bring these things before God each day, or if not for the ongoing mercies of God? Just ask it this way. Could things be worse? And if so, what or who keeps them from becoming that way?

God has withheld the rain from my food plot – the rain I had come to expect, depend on, and yes, take for granted.

He has shown me it could be worse.

Does praying make a difference? Is it important?

their land to land helicopters and park their trucks. One resident has even offered to sell his land so that the fire department can build their firehouse on higher ground.

Settlers Day founder Barb Snyders said the event was in part organized with groups like the Fire District in mind. “The aim was to provide a way for non-profits to raise money,� Snyders said. “That’s part of our mission.�

However, the event as whole has gone through some changes over the years with re-enactors, such as Kelly Wilfong, reminiscing of the days when they would canoe to the river’s edge and conduct a traditional smoking ceremony. Current re-enactor Jim Manley said this is partially because of a lack

I think the answer to both questions is yes. I also think I need to act as well. If I want an example of doing both, I can look to Jesus.

He acted and prayed. Now that I think about it, I’m glad he “thought� about me as well. ––––––––––––––––––– Q Gary has three books that are compilations of the articles he has written for nearly 15 years.

of interest by younger generations.

For the fire district, Hall said this change has taken the form of declining sales. “One time, back fifteen years ago, we were selling thousands of pounds of fish,� he said. “Now, it’s about 400.�

While the year has had its challenges, Old Settlers Days remains a vital lifeline for these organizations. “If it wasn’t for Old Settlers, we wouldn’t make as much as we do,�

Hall said.

The North Calhoun Fire District is currently running a Go Fund Me site to continue raising funds for the new fire house which can be found on the North Calhoun Fire Protection District webpage.

Premiums, deductibles, and co-pays, oh my!

Understanding insurance coverage can be challenging. It’s like learning a new language.

Here is a brief overview of some common insurance terms. A policy is an agreement between a person and an insurance company to cover things like a person’s home, automobile, life, or health care.

An individual purchases a policy from an insurance company. A premium is an amount of money you pay to have your insurance policy.

Premium amounts may change each year. Depending upon your policy, you may pay each month or a few times each year. If you stop paying your premiums,

JEROME ROSE

chances are your coverage will be cancelled.

A deductible is a type of “cost-sharing” between you and your insurance company. It’s an amount that you agree to pay first before the company pays. Sometimes companies will only “apply” the deductible to certain expenses.

Deductibles are generally based on the calendar year. They don’t “roll over” into the next year. For example, Medicare prescription drug plans often have deductibles. How they are applied to your prescriptions varies a lot between plans.

A co-pay, for prescription drug policies, is what you pay at the pharmacy when you pick up your prescriptions. The amount of your co-pay depends on the drugs you take, whether or not your drug insurance plan has a deductible, and whether or not you receive financial assistance for your prescriptions through programs like Extra Help.

Your co-pays can also vary from pharmacy to pharmacy. While it’s important to have a basic understanding of what these terms mean and what coverage you have, it’s even more important to keep your policy documents in a safe place. If you serve as a power of attorney, please make sure you know where your friend or family member has their documents stored.

Check your coverage regularly to avoid surprises, and be sure to keep your name, address and contact information updated with your companies.

Calhoun County schools given bleed kits

By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald Illinois is officially the second state in the nation to introduce bleed kits in school districts including the Calhoun and Brussels schools.

Currently, the school districts were given only a handful of kits, but the goal for the Illinois Terrorism Task Force and educators is the school district gets more as more staff are trained on it. Two were given to Calhoun schools along with some pressure dressings.

“They want one where every AED (Automated External Defibrillators) machine is located,” Chad Hoseman, Regional Office of Education assistant superintendent, said.

Local school districts were given a welcomed, but surprising gift recently in the form of bleed kits to support districts should they face events that would warrant the kit such as a school shooting.

The Illinois Terrorism Task Force announced significant steps to improving trauma management training at schools in Illinois, in a recent news release. Following the recommendations of the School Safety Working Group, more than 7,000 Stop the Bleed kits have been distributed to schools in Illinois ahead of the 2019-2020 school year.

Stop the Bleed is a national campaign intended to train, equip and empower bystanders to help in a bleeding emergency before professional help arrives.

Local districts appear to be on board with the idea. In the Calhoun district, the kits are already being weaved into the crisis plans the school has in place in case of those emergencies like a school shooting.

District Superintendent Kate Sievers said they would be doing training along with other trainings they had planned like CPR training.

Sievers saw this as a net positive for the district, noting the schools should be prepared in the case of major blood loss.

“We have to prepare for the crisis, she said.” “Hopefully, we will never need them.”

District Nurse Lisa Dolan agreed. Dolan sees it as an imperative that others in the district have the kind of emergency trainings she is already familiar with. Others in the district might be in a situation that requires the tools and training to mitigate or at least slow blood loss.

Depending on the blood loss, minutes and maybe even seconds matter. She said the turnaround time to get emer-

gency services to the school can be 15-20 minutes depending on the situation—a reality more rural areas face.

“The goal is to get everyone trained,” she said.

In Brussels, it is the same.

Superintendent Mark Martin said they already had some in the district with the training, but the district nurse will be heading up further training opportunities. He said the bleed kits were surprising but appreciated additions to the arsenal of tools to support, help and treat students.

He noted the goal is to ensure everyone is taught on the matter adding he hopes they never have to use the training.

The kits contain two pair of Nitril gloves, one 6-inch emergency trauma dressing, two responder compressed gauze, a combat application tourniquet, trauma scissors, a survival blanket, an instruction booklet and a permanent marker. The kits cost $54 each, paid by the Illinois Terrorism Task Force.

“Our top priority will always be preventing violence from occurring, but we must also be prepared for worst case scenarios.,” Acting Illinois Emergency Management Agency Director Alicia TateNadeau, said. “Stop the Bleed kits and the training that comes along with them can save lives and I applaud the Illinois Terrorism Task Force for implementing this program statewide.”

More specifically, the introduction of these kits came in response to shootings in schools. Hoseman said the mandate was a response to the deaths of several students in Chicago schools, which could have been prevented by having a kit and trained staff member available.

Sievers noted it was sad schools are in the position to worry about these crises.

“It does make me sad, but the culture has changed,” Sievers said. “Schools have to change with it.”

The organization behind the bleed kits, Stop the Bleed, worked with the

American College of Surgeons Committee to put together the program in response school shootings.

“Stop the Bleed kits provide the tools to help the public save lives, but the knowledge and confidence to save a life comes with proper training,” Mary Connelly, director of the Illinois Medical Emergency Response Team, said in a state news release.

According to the release, the Illinois Terrorism Task Force is determined to train 1,000 school nurses by February 2020.

“The goal was first to train five people, then up to 20 and finally everyone,” Hoseman said.

“Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them.

For everything in the world— the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world.”

1 John 2:15-16 NIV

n the eighteenth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew, the disciples ask Jesus who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. As Jesus often does, he both shows them and tells them the answer. Jesus calls a child to come over, sets the child in their midst and says “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”

(Matthew 18:3-4 NIV) Jesus calls explicit attention here to the humility and obedience of the child, who came and sat with them without asking questions. And as usual, the kingdom of heaven reverses the values of this world. In the kingdom of heaven, the lowly and humble shall be first. Pride and arrogance, and self-serving ambition may get you the highest position here on earth, but in the kingdom of heaven, the highest position is for the humble and lowly, and those with the simple faith and obedience of a child. The fact that the disciples are even asking the question reveals to Jesus how much they are stuck in the mindset of this world, thinking of hierarchies and pecking orders. Jesus wants them to re-evaluate their worldly values and consider that things in heaven will be quite different. Consider how much your own values (materialism, ambition, pride, etc.) are really the values of this world and not the values of the kingdom of heaven.

Kampsville was a busy place this weekend, and we loved it! Old Settlers Days was a success.

Barb Snyders and crew did an amazing job.

Always a hit with the kids is the Nolan Petting Zoo and a straw pile full of arrowheads that kids could hunt through.

This is a very important weekend for our village.

It gives our businesses customers and organizations an opportunity to raise money, and it gives our little village a lot of life. We all look forward to this weekend every year.

The North Calhoun Firemen fried up lots of delicious fish, funnel cakes and fire fries. The flood completely destroyed our firehouse so we need a new one. Anyone wanting to donate to this cause it would be greatly appreciated.

Our guys at the ferry were working hard this weekend also keeping the traffic moving smoothly. Since the flood, I haven’t mentioned them as much, but they are still keeping busy down there— working hard as always.

This past weekend was the Jeff Brangenberg Youth Hunt with Trinity Disabled Outdoor Adventures. This was Jeff’s Memorial. Our family and friends enjoyed cooking breakfast for the hunters meeting with their families, and hearing their stories.

Four amazing kids got the opportunity to Deer Hunt.

I’m excited to say all four got their deer. I can’t think of a more fitting way to honor Jeff’s memory than a hunt for kids. Thank you all that gave and all that work

so hard to make this happen.

Trinity Disabled Outdoor Adventures is an amazing organization and I’m happy we worked with them on this project.

The Kampsville American Legion is having their Pie-in-the-face contes. Don’t forget to stop in and put money in the pumpkin for your favorite guy to get a pie in the face. Pick from Perry Wheeler, John Wankel or James Ewen. The money raised will be used to buy blankets for veterans at the veteran’s home. Contest ends Oct. 24. While there, get your Queen of Hearts tickets. Our Queen still hasn’t been found and the money is growing.

State officials urge caution during harvest Harvest season is always hectic, but late spring planting this year will mean an especially busy time for farmers over the next few weeks. The Illinois Department of Labor urges farmers not to forsake safety as they race to bring in the 2019 crop. “Harvest season reminds us how important farmers are to Illinois’ economy and our way of life. But this busy time also brings additional risks to agriculture workers,� said Michael Kleinik, director of the Illinois Department of Labor. “We want farmers to head home to their families safe and sound at the end of each day.�

Vehicle safety is an especially important focus this time of year. Tractor overturns are the leading cause of fatalities in the agriculture industry, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. These accidents result in about 130 deaths each year nationwide. “The roll overs and left-hand turns by farm vehicles on roadways seem to be the top two safety issues,� said Dave Newcomb, Ag Rescue Program Manager with the Illinois Fire Service Institute.

While tractor roll-over accidents most often occur on the farm, roadways also pose a major safety hazard. Too often a vehicle attempting to pass causes a collision before the tractor or farm implement can finish a left-hand turn.

Some collisions occur simply because the driver fails to reduce speed for the slower moving farm implement.

Newcomb says impatience and speed

are a deadly combination on rural roads this time of year. Sadly, a farm vehicle/ car collision this month near Sterling resulted in the death of a 9-year-old girl. The child was a passenger in a vehicle attempting to pass a farm implement. The car struck a grain cart. “Please, be patient. Please, slow down,� said Newcomb.

Visibility is also a key to safety on the roads. All agricultural vehicles using the public roadways must display the fluorescent orange Slow Moving Vehicle triangle. Additionally, tractors and other self-powered farm vehicles must have proper lighting. According to Illinois law: Q Lighting is required from 30 minutes before sunset to 30 minutes after sunrise.

Q There should be two white lamps on the front of the vehicle, visible from at least 1000 feet to the front of the vehicle.

Q There should be two red lamps on the rear of the vehicle, visible from at least 1000 feet to the rear of the vehicle.

Q There should be at least one flashing amber signal lamp on the rear of the vehicle, mounted as high as possible and visible from at least 500 feet, which can be used during daylight as well.

Drivers should remember that farm vehicle operators have limited visibility to the rear. Anyone passing such a vehicle needs to use extreme caution.

Modern farm equipment provides effective safety devices if they are used properly. Death and serious injury from tractor roll overs can be prevented by

roll-over protective structures – a roll bar or cage designed to provide a safe space around the driver.

But too often workers fail to use a vital part of this safety device – a safety belt. “We have had fatalities where the people were thrown from the tractor and the roll-over protection pinned them to the ground and in one situation actually drowned the person because they were not buckled in,� said Newcomb. “You need to use all of the components.�

Newcomb offers three more words of advice to help avoid making dangerous mistakes this harvest season. Rest.

Nutrition. Hydration. He knows of one farm operation this year that has decided to not work on Sundays during harvest to give its employees needed rest. “And they determined it only added one day to the overall length of harvest,� said Newcomb, noting that it paid other benefits as well. “He told me, ‘We weren’t tired, so we caught little (maintenance) things before they became a real problem.’�

Farmers may not be convinced to take a whole day off during harvest, but at a minimum, Newcomb urges them to take a break every couple of hours – you can use it not only to stretch your legs but to make a quick inspection of your tractor or combine. Also, your tractor isn’t the only thing that needs fuel. Make sure to eat and drink fluids to stay alert. “It really doesn’t have to be non-stop.

Take a few minutes for yourself for safety’s sake,� said Newcomb.

Smoking in cars with minors is now illegal

By KRIS SCHEFFEL Calhoun News-Herald House Bill 2276 has officially been signed by Gov. J.B. Pritzker making smoking in a vehicle with a minor a petty offense.

Law enforcement officers will be able to issue citations to drivers with the aim of reducing childhood exposure to secondhand smoke.

Exposure to secondhand smoke can have negative health consequences at any age, but especially for those under the age of 18 years. District Nurse Lisa Dolan knows from experience the effects of secondhand smoke.

“The exposure to secondhand smoke in kids can lead to respiratory illness,” Dolan said. “Secondhand exposure is just as bad.”

Asthma, infections, ear infections

and shortness of breath are just a few of the effects of secondhand smoke.

Dolan sees the law as a positive.

“I’m glad they are passing it,” she said. “It’s not like in a house. When you are in a car, the kids don’t have the ability to get away from it.”

Calhoun Chief Deputy Sheriff Kyle Jacobs said he too agrees with the law having firsthand experience with individuals smoking in cars with minors.

“Unfortunately, they smoke whether they have kids in the car or not,” he said.

Many, he said, believe that by rolling the car windows down, they can prevent the effects of secondhand smoke. However, this is not the case. Educating the public not just on new laws, but also the reasoning behind them is a primary focus for the Sheriff’s Department.

“Ultimately, I agree with the law,” Jacobs said.

Individuals cannot be pulled over for smoking in their car with minors, but can be given a citation for doing so if they are pulled over for some other violation. Additionally, the law does not apply if the sole occupant of the vehicle is a minor.

The first offense can lead to a $100 fine with subsequent violations seeing a potential $250 fine.

House Bill 2276 is part of a wave of new legislation regarding smoking in the state. Governor Pritzker signed another piece of legislation earlier this year, commonly known as “Tobacco 21,” making it illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone under the age of 21. This law, however, removed the illegality of minors possessing or using those same products.

What’s Happening

25 Years Ago October 19, 1994 At the Monday, Oct. 17 Calhoun Board of Commissioners meeting, Sheriff Elmer Lehr reported on vandalism being done on both ends of the County. “We had about five mail boxes knocked over about two weeks ago in the north end on East Panther Creek. Then in the south end last week there were damages to 12 to 14 mail boxes, stop signs, and one street sign, along with some spray painting,� Lehr said.

The minimum fine for tearing down a sign or even possessing one is $250 per sign.

Not only is there the monetary loss, but some stranger, with all of this traffic now, could go through one of the stop signs and kill somebody,� Lehr added.

Lehr said that this vandalism seems to be happening every two to three months.

The commissioners decided to honor Lehr’s request for a reward. A reward of $250 will be offered for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of persons damaging Calhoun County Unit Road signs. “Sounds good. This may be a start,� Lehr commented.

Calhoun is one of the few surrounding counties not involved with an organization called CrimeStoppers.

50 Years Ago October 16, 1969 A tornado narrowly missed Hamburg Friday night about 8 o’clock but did touch down long enough just east of there and demolished a trailer home of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Bartlett in Irish Hollow.

Mrs. Bartlett was in the trailer with her five children, ranging in ages from 2 to 11 years, when the twister hit their home The strong wind tumbled the trailer over and over and finally it broke up throwing the occupants out.

One of the children, Connie, age 9, suffered a broken leg and a son, Darrell, age 2, two fractured collar bones. Mrs. Bartlett and the other children came out with cuts and bruises. All were brought to the Medical Center in Hardin and Connie was later moved to Alton Memorial Hospital to have the fracture reduced.

The other children at home were Linda, 6, Randy, 10 and Richard, 11. They were less seriously injured, but Mrs. Bartlett was taken to Jerseyville Hospital on Saturday for further examination and treatment.

Mrs. Bartlett and the children were alone in the trailer when the storm struck. Her husband was at work on his job at the Kampsville Ferry.

The tornado completely destroyed the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Bartlett nearby where the trailer was parked. The trailer was on top of a knoll and the two story house was beneath it in the flat. All that was left of the traier was the floor which was blown up against a ravine.

Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Bartlett, the parents of Ronnie, were in Hardin when the storm struck, or undoubtedly they would have been killed instantly, as the house was nothing but a shambles of twisted and broken splinters when they returned.

A trailer parked to the southeast about 60 yards was not damaged, but huge trees, mostly of the sycamore variety, were torn, broken and uprooted all around the Bartlett compound, which is a half mile off the north prong of Irish Hollow. A swath of timber was leveled as the tornado bounced skyward again.

More than six inches of rain fell in the 48 hour period. Fields and highways were flooded and much damage was done to soy bean crops and apples that are being harvested. The high wind and heavy rain, mixed with some hail, knocked many luscious, ripe apples to the ground, thus bruising the and making them only good for seconds or cider use.

The football game at Calhoun High with Greenfield was rained and blown out just before the half time, as it was impossible to carry on with the high wind and torrential downpour. Lightening and water caused some of the field lights to burn out and after a quick huddle with both teams, the referees of the game decided, and rightly so, that the play could not continue. The game was tied 6-6 when the rains came.

The game was postponed until the next day at 11 a.m. when Calhoun went on to win by 14-12.

The heavy downpour on Saturday night caused several motorists to run off the highway near Hardin and a landslide covered half

of the pavement on Rt. 16 at Fieldon Hill.

The rain continued most of Sunday and put a damper on the Bank’s Open House and St. Norbert’s annual dinner. However, despite the inclemency of the weather both affairs enjoyed very good attendances.

75 Years Ago October 19, 1944 Last Tuesday the student body met and elected candidates for the Carnival Queen.

One candidate and an escort were elected by each class. The results of the election was: Freshman Queen Candidate - Letha Caselton; Escort - Louis Godar; Sophomore - Mary Bo Aderton; Escort - Ross Zumwalt; Junior - Cecelia Mae Behrens; Escort - Bill Gettings; Senior - Norma Lee Stumpf; Escort - Bob Kieninger. The classes have arranged cans in which to place votes for candidates.

The school festival and carnival will be held the night of Oct. 25th. Final preparations are now in the making. Interesting plays, music, singing, etc. The final event of the evening will be the crowning of the Queen. There will be lots of good things to eat which will be sold during the evening. Be sure to vote for your favorite candidate. The votes will be one cent each.

One of the main attractions at the Carnival will be a short play: “The Prince and the Patters.� The following grade pupils will have a part: Jack Etter, Jim Ulery, Marva Ringhausen, Phil Holloway, Janet and Janice Groppel, Adelma Gresham, Elsie Butter, David Ringhausen, Ruth Rosa, James Chronister, Tommy Degerlia, Charlotte Plummer, Glenda Ringhausen, Idabell Evans and Paul Aderton.

If you want to a Prince and the delight in children’s eyes, be sure to come to the Carnival. There will be a Novelty stand in the Primary Room and also some work of the Primary children, so don’t forget to come and see this The Primary children are busy making things for Halloween.

The material for enrolling in the Junior Red Cross is here. Each school will be asked to enroll at the County Teacher’s Meeting, Friday, Oct. 27. Twenty-four enrolled last year. There are 39 school districts in the county. May we have 100% enrollment this year. Schools may get instructions for making material at the institute. The elementary enrollment fee is 50 cents for each room and the high schools enrollment fee is one dollar for each group of one hundred pupils of fraction thereof.

Daniel Godar visited high school Friday.

William Fuller visited high school Friday.

He is a student in the sight saving department at the School for the Blind in Jacksonville.

Mr. Mortland took pictures of the grade students Friday afternoon.

The typing students are cutting their first stencils this week.

Wanda Faye Matthews and June Rosa entertained John Redd of Alton and Pvt. Roland Carey of Oklahoma at dinner at the Rosa home Saturday evening.

Rosemary Anderson celebrated her birthday Oct. 15th. A dinner was given in her honor. Those present were: LeRoy Hagen, Ronald Caselton, Anna Lee Anderson and Rosemary Anderson.

100 Years Ago October 16, 1919 Elmer E. Williams of Hardin has received word from E.E. Crabtree, of Jacksonville, Ill., Director for Illinois of the Third Red Cross Roll Call, informing Mr. Williams that he has been appointed Vice-Director for the Illinois of the southern end of the state for the roll call of members of the American Red Cross.

Mr. Williams acted as Vice-Director of three counties during the Liberty Loan drives and he was instrumental in many ways in bringing his counties through the five campaigns that he has been chosen to supervise the Roll Call of the American Red Cross in Calhoun county and other counties in the southern part of the state. In the letter which Mr. Williams received from Mr. Crabtree it says, in part: “By this letter you will see that you have been appointed Vice Chairman for the south end of the state for the Third Red Cross Roll Call. We are calling a meeting of the workers for Oct. 17th, Statler Hotel, St. Louis. I want you sure at this meeting.�

Now what the folks of Calhoun county want to do is to fall in line with Mr. Williams and answer to this roll call. We believe the good folks of the ‘Kingdom’ will be present when the roll is called during the last week in November.

Calhoun finishes conference play with big win

By MARK HILLEN The Calhoun-Brussels football co-op traveled to Winchester last Friday as underdogs in a battle of 1-5 teams. The Warriors scored in every quarter and used a bend but not break defense to take away a huge 26-7 victory that pushed their overall record to 2-5 and 2-3 in the WIVC South. For the Winchester-Bluffs co-op, taking Carrollton to the wire the week before did not carry over into the Week 7 contest.

Calhoun led 6-0, 12-6, 19-6, and the final of 26-7 as they ran 39 offensive plays, gained nine first downs, and held their penalties to a minimum with four for

20 yards.

Corey Nelson only needed to throw three times in the game, completing two of those attempts for 27 yards and an interception. Stone Zirkelbach hauled in a catch for 17 yards, and DJ Lorton grabbed the other for 10 yards.

The Warriors did the bulk of their damage on the ground, gaining 215 yards on 34 rushing attempts. Sage White had his name called early and often for 22 carries that covered 87 yards. White scored three of the four touchdowns on the night for Calhoun.

Stone Zirkelbach had only five car-

ries, but gained 100 yards on the night, including an 83-yard option for the other Calhoun touchdown. DJ Lorton had four carries for 4 yards; Corey Nelson, two carries for 4 yards; and Mason Pherigo, one carry for no yards gained.

On defense, White led the team with nine tackles, followed by Zirkelbach, and Brody Caselton who each had seven.

Caselton, Luke Wickenhauser, Cale Burris and Kaden Baalman each added a sack on the night to help pace the Calhoun defense.

Nelson, Lorton and Trevor Eickmeyer each pounced on fumbles to create turnovers.

The Week 7 win comes before the trek

to Camp Point to take on the Central High School Panthers. Central finished last season at 12-2 as state runner-ups in Class 1A. At 6-1, the Panthers look to have reloaded and will be a tough test for the Warriors in Week 8.

However, the win over West Central was much needed as Calhoun has had several games this year where they have played opponents tough, but have not been able to get over the top. West Central came in as the favorite after several key players for the team had been reinstated to their squad in Week 6. Calhoun accepted the challenge and came through for the big win.

Bill would allow college athletes to be compensated

By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald Illinois lawmaker are taking cues from California with a recently proposed measure to allow college student athletes to sign endorsement deals, hire agents and benefit financially from the use of their likeness — a move some locals who were college athletes once themselves balked at.

Dylan Ringhausen, assistant football coach for the Calhoun Warriors and once a college athlete himself, saw this as a move in the wrong direction personally.

Ringhausen said the work on and off the field is a good trade for what these college athletes are given, citing the full-ride athletic scholarships and stipends many of these students are given to play.

Especially the case with Division 1 schools, Ringhausen said they are getting an education, even if many serious in the D1 athletics only have intentions of going pro.

“They are still going to college and getting a good education,” he said. “It is a good trade for two years.”

This does not include the stipends that often cover these student’s everyday expenses like food and housing.

Ringhausen noted there is need for improvement, though, in how the money is used in the college athletic system, pointing specifically to the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). He said there needs to be checks on the organization and institutions to ensure the money garnered from these players is going back into benefiting the student.

This new measure proposed at the state level comes after California became the first state in the nation to pass such a law earlier this week.

“First and foremost, it’s about fairness and equity, and athletes being able to profit off their own names and their own likeness,” Democratic Rep. Emanuel “Chris” Welch of Hillside said.

Welch said universities make millions off student athletes each year, and the NCAA — the governing body that oversees college athletics — generates tens of billions of dollars each year. The association’s rules, however, prohibit endorsement deals and prevent student athletes from cashing in on the popularity of collegiate sports which they helped create, he said.

Welch’s measure, House Bill 3904, duplicates the California law and states any association, including the NCAA, “may not prevent a student athlete … from earning compensation as a result of the use of the student’s name, image, or likeness.”

The bill also prohibits the NCAA from barring a university from competition if its athletes are compensated in such a manner, and prohibits universities from upholding any rules that ban endorsements. The bill would apply to both public and private universities.

While it allows student athletes to hire agents, it does not pave the way for them to seek salaries or payment, outside of scholarships, from their college or university, Welch said.

“The salary issue is completely separate and apart from an athlete being able to sign an endorsement deal to profit from their own name and their own likeness,” Welch said. “I have no concerns about this threatening the

purity of the sport and amateur sports. …This is a very tightly-written bill that I think takes that concern into consideration and eliminates it.”

Welch said the bill does prohibit a student athlete from receiving an endorsement from a direct competitor to a partner organization of their university.

“For instance, if the university has a contract with Under Armour, players can’t sign a deal with Nike,” he said.

The NCAA opposed California’s efforts to pass such a bill.

“As a membership organization, the NCAA agrees changes are needed to continue to support student-athletes, but improvement needs to happen on a national level through the NCAA’s rules-making process,” the association said in a statement. “As more states consider their own specific legislation related to this topic, it is clear that a patchwork of different laws from different states will make unattainable the goal of providing a fair and level playing field for 1,100 campuses and nearly half a million student-athletes nationwide.”

The association said it will “consider next steps in California” while its members “move forward with ongoing efforts to make adjustments to NCAA name, image and likeness rules.”

A statement from the Pac-12 athletic conference, which is home to some of California’s largest and most competitive schools, said the conference “is disappointed in the passage” of the California law.

“This legislation will lead to the professionalization of college sports and many unintended consequences related to this professionalism, imposes a state law that conflicts with national rules, will blur the lines for how California universities recruit student-athletes and compete nationally, and will likely reduce resources and opportunities for student-athletes in Olympic sports and have a negative disparate impact on female student-athletes,” the conference said in the statement.

Like the California bill, Welch’s measure would take effect in 2023. The reason for the grace period is to allow for an expected legal challenge, Welch said.

“I think it’ll be challenged in court because the NCAA has a bottomless pit of money,” he said. “It makes millions off of student athletes every year. And that’s why in the California law and my bill, the effective dates don’t start until 2023. In anticipation, you know, of having this resolved via the court.”

Welch said California’s action on the matter means Illinois must act to stay competitive on a recruiting basis.

“From a recruiting standpoint, we need to be on par with the law in California. That’s an amazing recruiting tool for their coaches and those universities in California,” he said.

“And that means time is of the essence.”

Welch said he wants to move the bill, which has gained one Republican and six Democratic co-sponsors since it was filed Monday, when the General Assembly returns for fall veto session on Oct. 28.

A request for comment from the University of Illinois was not immediately returned Tuesday.
