R-9 Board Meeting
Black Saves Horses With Fire Fast Approaching
Editor’s Note: This story was written by Annika Plummer, administrative assistant for the agriculture department at Dickinson State University, where 2017 Trenton High School graduate Katerina Black is a student. She is the daughter of Kelli Griffith and David Black. The town of Medora, ND, just 37 miles west of Dickinson, was threatened by a fire on Thursday, April 1, 2021. This was no April Fool’s joke. The fire burned an estimated 2,276 acres and came very close to the town of Medora. One of the Ag Department’s students, Katerina Black, was instrumental in saving horses that were in danger. Katerina works for the Theodore Roosevelt Medora Foundation (TRMF) Riding Stables. On the day of the fire, she had just arrived in Medora at about 1:30 p.m. and noticed the smoke. She caught and saddled her personal horse, Zipper, while ash from the fire fell down on her. At the time, she was unsure of the fire’s severity but she wanted to be prepared. Katerina called a friend/co-worker to bring a trailer and help her prepare to rescue six TRMF horses in the path of the fire. The pasture the horses were in was below the Burning Hills Amphitheater and just down the road from the Chateau de Mores Interpretive Center. At first, Katerina and her friend were on stand-by, waiting for notification to relocate the horses. It didn’t take long before the call came. The horses were in the path of the fire and needed to be moved to a safer location. Katerina and Zipper were doing their best to herd the horses into the catch pen, but due to the heavy smoke, the horses were riled up and wouldn’t go in. By this time, the fire was only about a quarter mile away. The best option was to open the gate and chase the horses out of the pasture toward the railroad tracks and safety. Katerina was the only person mounted on a horse; all of the other helpers

Public Hearings Scheduled
The Trenton Planning and Zoning Commission has scheduled two public hearings for 7 p.m., Monday, May 3 at city hall. One hearing will involve a request from KGI Wireless in care of Verizon Wireless for a conditional use permit to allow the construction of a new 150-foot monopole to improve wireless coverage in the city of Trenton on property located at 212 E. Seventh St. The second hearing will involve the issue of whether the proposed downtown Historic Preservation District meets the criteria set forth in the Trenton City Code.

were on foot trying to catch the horses. The situation became tense when, right after the horses were approaching the Chateau de Mores Interpretive Center, some of the horses tried to run to their winter pasture. This winter pasture is just west of the interpretive center up the hill and behind the Medora cemetery. This was an area that was back burnt by firemen in an effort to keep the fire contained and not move closer to Medora. Thankfully, Katerina and Zipper were able to get around the horses and turn them toward a grassy area between the Medora pool and Little Missouri River. It would have been nearly impossible to turn the horses on foot, especially since they were scared due to all the smoke. Fortunately, three of
the horses were caught and loaded onto the trailer. The other three horses were scared and running, but with helpers on foot working to calm the horses and catch them, Katerina could turn her focus to another pressing issue. Katerina’s other personal horse, a mare named Tally, was in a pasture behind the Medora Fire Hall. Katerina and Zipper headed to catch Tally and get her safely across the river. Turns out Zipper is the father to Tally, so father was helping daughter escape! The smoke was thick, but Katerina could see the flames in the valley across the road. Katerina and Zipper led Tally about a mile to the Ranch-o-Rama on the east side of Medora. Not long after Katerina moved Tally to safety, a spark from the main fire was carried in the wind
and started a fire in that pasture. There were other TRMF horses at Ranch-o-Rama, so with the addition of the six that were trailered over and Katerina’s two horses, there were 48 horses under Katerina’s care. With the horses in relative safety, Katerina turned her attention to getting back to her house in the Medora Campground. She needed to get some personal items as Medora was being evacuated. Once her personal items were secured, Katerina stayed at Ranch-o-Rama with the horses to ensure she was there if they needed to be relocated. Angels must have been looking over Medora, because the fire was stopped due to the courageous efforts of the Medora Fire Department, Na[See BLACK, Page 6]

NJCAA CENTRAL B DISTRICT TOURNAMENT

JEREMY ESRY cuts down the net at the Ketcham Community Center for the second time in as many weeks after the Pirates defeated Spoon River 90-81 to claim the NJCAA Division II Central B District championship.
DYNASTY
North Central Men Earn Third-Straight National Tournament Bid With 90-81 Victory Two years ago in the waning moments of the North Central Missouri College men’s basketball team’s district championship win over Arkansas Mid-South then freshman Marty Jackson pointed to the east wall in the Ketcham Community Center. That wall was reserved for National Tournament banners and, to that point, the men’s program had never reached that echelon. That wall that Jackson famously pointed out will now be fitted for a thirdstraight national tournament banner. On Saturday in the Ketcham Community Center – the same gym the Pirates won that first district championship in two years ago – North Central dispatched of Spoon River Community College 90-81 to lay claim to the Central B District championship. After years and years of trying and failing, North Central is now a regular fixture of the NJCAA Division II National Tournament – even if COVID kept them from officially making the trip last season. The three-year run of dominance over the region and district displayed the power of the program that Pirates’ coach Jeremy Esry has built. In junior college basketball, where rosters are completely rebuilt every one-to-two years, North Central has established continued success no matter who is on the court. “I think we just did it day by day,” Esry said of the run his program has been on. “We just kind of stuck to small beliefs and small stuff and that led to the big stuff. We do a lot of the same things every day and it’s all about bringing in the right kids and finding the right fit. We were able to bring in a lot of kids from winning teams in high school and I think that was a key too.” In this championship, North Central jumped out early, opening the game on a 9-2 run. The Pirates would continue to show the way throughout the rest of the first half, but could never pull away from Spoon River. At the break, the Pirates’ lead sat at 44-40. The Pirates continued to show the way in the second half, but with just over nine minutes left to play, Spoon River took its first lead of the contest at 66-65. But after a few lead changes, the Pirates regained control. With under two to go the lead was back to nine points. The lead was 13 with a minute to play and Spoon River’s 4-0

The NJCAA Division II National Tournament will be held on April 20-24 in Danville, IL. Seeding for the tournament was scheduled to be released on Monday afternoon. Lake Land 80 North Central 50 The North Central women’s region championship season came to a close on Saturday, one win shy of collecting a national tournament bid of their own. The Pirates entered the Central A District championship game ranked 10th in the nation, however, Lake Land, ranked third in the nation, was just too much. The Pirates trailed 28-10 one quarter in and 50-21 by halftime. NCMC made a run in the third quarter, but the damage done in the first half was too much to overcome. “Lake Land is a really good team,” North Central coach Jenni Croy said. “They shoot the ball extremely well and do a great job defensively. We knew it was going to tough, however, we didn’t play to the level we are capable. It’s always disappointing when the season comes to an end but this group definitely had more highs than lows this season.” The Pirates were led by Kennadie Crowe, who had 14 points and seven rebounds in the loss. Maci Moore and Lily Osborn each had nine points and Nora Ford finished with eight. The loss gave North Central a final record of 17-5 on the season. “(This team) I believe is the only team in our program history to be nationally ranked every week of the season,” Croy said. “They set some high goals for themselves at the beginning and achieved all but one which was to make to the national tournament. The sophomore group were great leaders for us and really showed the freshmen what it takes to compete at this level.” The Pirates topped Lincoln Land 74-68 on Friday in the semifinals to reach Saturday’s championship game. Angel Wiggins led the way with 17 points while Moore had 14 points, 10 rebounds, three assists and three steals and Crowe had 14 points and two blocks. Kortlyn Rounkles had eight points, three assists and three steals for the Pirates.

run to close the contest didn’t affect the outcome as North Central held on to make it three-straight district championships. “It goes back to having guys with a winning mentality, guys who don’t get nervous under pressure,” Esry said. “They just keep believeing in it and they keep attacking and staying aggressive. We didn’t do anything out of character. Even when Spoon River made a run, our guys stuck with the program and kept believing in each other.” The Pirates’ one-two punch of Jeramy Shaw and Atavian Butler were at it again in the championship, continuing to deliver on the biggest stage. Shaw went for a game-high 26 points, tallied six rebounds, handed out four assists and swiped three steals. Butler added 23 points and three assists. “You hate hanging your hat on one or two guys, and I don’t think we have that because I trust our other guys, but those are two guys that just came up big,” Esry said. “When they are both hitting and both feeling themselves offensively and doing a lot of good things, I think we are really, really tough. They are a tough match-up and we like to put them on the same side of the basketball because that forces teams to make a decision on how they are going to guard. They are definitely a one-two punch and they do a lot. They make coaching a lot easier, I will tell you that.” Behind that duo, North Central got 17 points from Jackson Andrews, who was 5for-8 from the three-point line. Kolten Griffin added nine points while pulling down 10 rebounds. The Pirates hit 57.4 percent of their shots while limiting Spoon River to a 42.4 shooting percentage. The win pushed the Pirates to 17-6 overall on the season. They will enter the national tournament having won six in a row and 11 of their last 12. The Pirates advanced to the district finals with a 96-66 rout of Illinois Central in the semifinals on Friday. North Central jumped out to a huge lead early and coasted the rest of the way. The game was never in doubt after the Pirates’ initial punch. Butler had 21 points and six rebounds in the win and Camron Donatlan added 21 points off the bench. Shaw had 10 points and eight rebounds and Griffin and Truman Kaderly each scored eight points.
golf team was in Carrollton on Friday for a triangular with the host Trojans and the Gallatin Bulldogs. Trenton carded a team score of 212 at the event, topping Carrollton’s 222, but coming up just shy of Gallatin’s winning total of 208. For Trenton, Brycin Loyd led the way, shooting an even 50. Chase Otto followed with a 52 and Gavin Roeder added a 53. Rounding out the team
score was a 57 from Patrick Behen. Also in varsity action for Trenton was Preston Harris, who carded a 64. Carrollton’s Jed Staton won medalist honors at the event, shooting a 46. Gallatin’s Hayden Jumps was second with a 49. With the split, Trenton moved to 1-2 in dual action on the season. Trenton had three junior varsity golfers competing in
Carrollton. Bo Meeker led that group with a 59. Justin Hall added a 68 and Dagan Burkeybile finished with a 70. Up next for the Bulldog golfers was a home date against Princeton and Putnam County on Monday at the Riverside Country Club. Trenton will be at home again on Wednesday, playing host to Richmond and Lawson. Tee time for that event is scheduled for 4 p.m.

Sixth District U.S. Rep. Sam Graves 1415 Longworth House Bldg. Washington D.C. 20515 Phone: 202-225-7041 “SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED” Using the Justice Department and Attorney General Merrick Garland, the President wants to restrict gun-making kits and parts, as well as pistol braces. He also wants to provide “model” red flag laws for states to temporarily take guns from folks deemed a danger to themselves. Most concerning is his nomination of a radical gun control lobbyist to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. David Chipman previously served at ATF and has made it clear that he doesn’t understand why folks think they need to own guns and that the 2nd Amendment means guns should be “well-regulated.” Once again, the rest of his words indicate that his definition of “well-regulated” is probably different than what we think of in North Missouri.
“Shall not be infringed.” It’s a critical phrase in the 2nd Amendment. Our right to keep and bear arms is one held dear across North Missouri. Hunting, target shooting, and most importantly, self-defense, are just a few of the reasons why. When President Biden ran for office, he promised to “defeat the NRA.” To me, it sounded like code for “get rid of guns.” Unfortunately, I don’t think going after guns was a campaign platitude. With his track record of actually banning some firearms for a time with the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban, it shouldn’t have been a surprise. Facing pressure to follow through on campaign promises, President Biden announced a slew of executive orders this week to try to dismantle the 2nd Amendment.
Unfortunately, if the President could go farther than what he’s proposed, he would. That’s the problem. Add a restriction here, toss in a new regulation there, try to pass a few new laws and suddenly the law-abiding citizens have a problem. The criminals though? They’ll still be committing the same crimes. Criminals don’t care about laws or executive orders. That’s why it’s called “breaking the law.” The point of the 2nd Amendment is for law-abiding citizens to be able to protect and defend themselves. Against criminals, I might add. Make no mistake, criminalization of our constitutional rights and confiscation of legally possessed weapons is the ultimate goal here. In the meantime, court challenges will ensue and hopefully we can slow down the impending gun grab. The common theme running through all of this gun control talk is a dubious interpretation of the Constitution to suit a political belief. While unveiling his executive orders this week, President Biden went so far as to say that the 2nd Amendment isn’t absolute. I don’t know about you, but “shall not be infringed” sounds pretty absolute to me.

Scrappy Quilters Hear Program On Fusible Applique At April 6 Meeting Fusible Applique by Laura Wasilowski was the program for the Scrappy Quilter’s when they met for the April 6 meeting at the First Baptist Church in Trenton. The program demonstrated how to use fusible web and hand dyed fabrics to create fun fusible designs. Laura is considered the Queen of Fusing in Chicago. President Donna Wilson presided over the business meeting where reports were given on a possible mini quilt show in August in connection with the Trenton Ice Cream event celebrating the Missouri Bicentennial. Currently, there are no plans to hold a show during the 2021 Missouri Day Festival in October. Deb Smith from Mercer county will be giving a short program to the group in June and encouraging members to enter quilts in a show they will be having Labor Day weekend. Members were reminded of the 2021 Retreat that is going to be held in September at The Barn in Valley Falls, KS. Can-
celations need to be given by May so final plans can be arranged with The Barn. Donna encouraged anyone wanting to plan an additional retreat this year to do so. It was announced that the blocks that the group is currently working on for their group project have the incorrect measurements. The correct measurements will be put on the group Facebook page for those who are participating. Upcoming events and shows were shared. It was announced that the Missouri Star Quilt Company shops plan to reopen on May 3 following being closed for a year due to the COVID pandemic. The American Quilters Association has announced shows they will be holding in 2022 in Daytona Beach, FL, Paducah, KY, Branson and Grand Rapids, MI. The Kansas City Regional Quilt Festival will be held June 17-19 in Overland Park, KS. The Fabric Chic quilt shop in Parkville
will be having a quilt show May 1-9 with the theme “Scrappy Quilts.” It will be a Viewer’s Choice show and the public is invited to attend and cast their vote for their favorite quilt. Cyndi Johnson has a quilt that was selected to be in this show. The Northland Needler’s of Kansas City are hosting a quilt show Sept. 17-18 in Kansas City. Several donation quilts were selected for fire victims and fundraisers in Trenton and Chillicothe. The next meeting will be held on May 4 beginning at 4 pm at the First Baptist Church in Trenton. This meeting will be a Quilt in A Night event where the group will be making a quilt together in one night. A light meal will be provided, and potential new members are invited to join the group. Anyone wishing to join the group is asked to contact Donna Wilson or Cyndi Johnson so they can plan the meal accordingly.

IMPROVING MISSOURI’S DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE Government should have a limited role in our lives. My time in the Legislature has shown me this limited role can be a good thing, too. State government has, in my opinion, a responsibility to its most vulnerable populations. For many people, this means different things. To me, it not only includes children and the elderly, but it also means keeping the infrastructure systems that people rely on in top condition. As we have learned over the
past year, most of the world operates on computers. This has translated into having the ability to access the world through the touch of a button on one’s laptop or phone. Over the years, I have worked to try and get every corner of our state access to highspeed broadband. Unfortunately, there are still too many areas using dialup Internet. To me, this is unacceptable, and does not take into account those places where there is no coverage whatsoever. Admittedly, it is nice

to “get off the grid” now and again, but our daily way of living requires up-to-date technology. By the same token, some of the providers of these services are much further along. Sadly, our state has some of the oldest operating systems still in place, in departments such as the Missouri Department of Revenue. Some of the systems in use today date back to the 1970s or early 80s. It has become nearly impossible to service these computer programs, because no one remembers how to use the old Cobalt systems. Yet, we are still using them, mainly because of the costs associated with upgrading and replacing these outdated programs. Fortunate-ly, we started to replace these systems before the coronavirus pandemic struck, and we hope to continue this year. A lot of these updates come
down to cost. As chair of the Missouri Senate Appropriations Committee, I want to assure you we are watching every dollar. State law requires us to have a balanced budget, and we do. I believe we treat the taxpayers’ money better than we do our own, because it is imperative we keep critical services running for those who need them the most and do as much as possible on as little as possible. It is the Missouri way, and a great way to do business. As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns.

LOCAL DEATHS James Lowell Coffman Funeral services for James Lowell Coffman were held at 2 p.m., Sunday, April 11, 2021 at the First Baptist Church in Trenton. Rev. Josh Gottman officiated. Mr. Coffman, a 79-year-old long-time Trenton resident, went to his heavenly home on Wednesday, April 7, 2021 at 6:04 p.m., while being surrounded by his loved ones. Doris McGowan was the organist. Special recorded music included “In the Garden” and “Daddy’s Hands.” Pallbearers were Lance Rains, Steve Lamar, Dennis Coffman, Bill Christie, Jamison Lamar and Jarod Rains. Honorary pallbearers were Bob Burchett, Jerald Skroh, Jim McGowan, Dennis Gutshall, Larry Smith and Mike Whitaker. Burial was in the Alpha Cemetery near Laredo. Mr. Coffman was born Feb. 23, 1942 in Trenton, (on the worst blizzard in history as he always told the story) to Rev. James Marvin and Irene Berry Coffman. Also born of this union were three sisters, Carolyn, Mary Virginia and Marvis. They lived on the family farm near Laredo until the family suffered a great loss due to their father passing away suddenly. The family then made their home in Trenton. James took on the challenge of raising his three sisters and caring for his mother. He would take odd jobs to provide for the family. He graduated from Trenton High School in 1960. On Aug. 19, 1961 he was united in marriage to his love, Brenda Sue Gott in Trenton. He became interested in the electrical business and with partners, Tri-Way Electric was formed. James spent more than 45 years servicing the area’s electrical needs. He would do anything from changing a light bulb to wiring a farmer’s grain bin. He was also included in several new building projects in the community such as providing elec-

The Trenton Police Department responded to a two-vehicle crash near the intersection of Second and Kitty streets on April 7. According to Lt. Larry Smith’s accident report, the mishap occurred when a sport utility vehicle driven by Kari M. Miller of Galt, was eastbound on Second Street, preparing to make a left turn to travel north on Kitty Street. Due to the pillar on the driver’s side door, she failed to see a car driven by Dillan Pratt, which had stopped on Kitty Street because he noted that Ms. Miller’s vehicle was approaching the intersection. Ms. Miller turned onto Kitty Street, with her vehicle striking Pratt’s car and causing damage to the front end of both vehicles. Pratt’s head hit the driver’s side visor, causing a red mark, but he refused medical treatment at the scene. Ms. Miller was ticketed for making an improper turn resulting in a motor vehicle crash.

case, he needs to seek the help of a professional, or join a group for support, to understand his compulsive behavior. Your habit of checking his phone and not trusting him is not helping either. Try and stop checking his phone and instead ask him if he needs help. If he declines, then it might time for the two of you to seek marriage counseling to go through it all together in a controlled setting. He might be a wonderful husband, and you might be a wonderful wife, but this issue of your playing "gotcha," and his apologizing like a bad boy, is not healthy for either of you or your four beautiful children. Dear Annie: I am writing because I have noticed lately that there are a lot of drivers on the road whose vehicle lights aren't working. If you want to check your vehicle lights by yourself, here's how: Drive to a building that has plate glass windows and pull in with your headlights facing the windows. Check your headlights, high beams and directional signals. Then reverse

Dear Annie: I'm married to a wonderful man, and we have four beautiful children. However, since COVID-19 started, we discovered that we have underlying issues within our relationship. For example, he isn't the best person to communicate with. Among other things, I discovered his liking of porn, and I'm not happy about it. I have expressed my hurt and feelings about it, and he listens, but I feel like he honestly doesn't care about my feelings. Just recently, I found out he searched it but didn't watch it. I've developed a bad habit of checking his phone from time to time because I think he lies to me and hides it because he has before. He says he acknowledged that he did wrong, but he didn't watch it. He says it's a bad habit of his, and it's not easy to break. How do you deal with this? I feel he has excuses for everything and tries to downplay his wrongs and gets defensive. -- Fed Up Dear Fed Up: Your husband might be suffering from a porn addiction. If that is the

your vehicle and back into the parking space so that your rear lights are facing the plate glass windows. Check your rear lights, brake lights, directional signals and reverse gear (white) lights by looking in your rearview mirror while you test them. This works even in daylight, since the reflections are easily seen in the plate glass. Also, if the six-foot rule for social distancing is a bit confusing, remember that most commercial buildings have had their floor tile installed by the square foot. Counting six of the tiles should equal six feet in most cases. If the tiles are smaller, say eight inches square, count nine tiles and you will be at a safe distance. I hope these hints may help people, especially during lockdowns. -- Keeping the Roads Safe Dear Keeping the Roads Safe: Thank you for your letter. You make some practical and helpful suggestions.

Filling up the tanks spend 31% more on gasoline from April through September compared to the same time last year, boosted by increased travel and summer gas prices rising from an average of $2.07 per gallon last year to an expected $2.78 this year, the EIA said. In late March, retail gasoline prices reached $2.87 per gallon in the U.S., the highest in nearly two years. A barrel of Brent crude oil, the international standard, will likely sell for about $64 a barrel this summer, up from $36 per barrel over the same months last year, the agency said.
Drivers are expected to burn more gasoline this summer than they did last, but gas guzzling during the warm months won’t be as high as 2019, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. “We forecast 15% more highway travel this summer as a result of rising employment, easing regional restrictions designed to slow the pandemic, and increasing overall economic activity as vaccination rates increase,” said Steve Nalley, EIA acting administrator. The U.S. fiscal stimulus should also help support economic recovery, the agency said. Drivers are expected to
