Trenton officer shot in Winston while en route to mental hospital, suspect detained by ‘heroic’ bystanders until arrest can be made On June 14, Trenton Police Officer Jasmine Diab was transporting a prisoner, Jamey Aaron Griffin of Trenton, through Daviess County on U.S. 69. As Officer Diab drove into Winston around 3 p.m., Griffin was able to gain control of the officer’s firearm in a struggle which ensued inside the vehicle.

Griffin discharged a shot, striking the officer in the abdomen. The vehicle then stopped in the parking lot of the Winston Pit Stop.

Griffin attempted to flee the scene in the officer’s vehicle. He was detained by several citizen bystanders until he was taken into custody by responding officers. Witnesses said he attempted to run multiple times and that one bystander had a firearm as all awaited the arrival of law officers for assistance.

Emergency medical personnel responded to assist Officer Diab at the Winston Pit Stop. The officer was transported by Life-

Flight medical helicopter to a Kansas City hospital, where she underwent two surgeries, one on Friday and one on Sunday. Officer Diab has now been upgraded from critical to stable condition.

Griffin was also treated at an area hospital after suffering a gunshot wound to his hand in the incident.

Griffin, 38, has been charged in Daviess County with assault first degree - serious physical injury or special victim, A felony; unlawful use of weapon – shoot at person – death or injury, A felony; and armed criminal action, unclassified felony. The charges were filed by Daviess County Prosecutor Annie Gibson, with Judge Daren L. Adkins assigned to the case. Bond was denied.

Kidder man fatally injured in accident A Kidder man was fatally injured in an accident that happened at about 7:45 a.m. on June 11.

According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the accident occurred as Chaz Streu, 25, Kidder, was eastbound on Highway 6.

He was driving a 1999 Volvo dump truck.

About eight miles west of Trenton, his vehicle skidded, traveled across the center of the roadway and off the north side of Highway 6. The truck struck an embankment and overturned, then came to rest on the driver side on the north side of Highway 6, facing north.

Mr. Streu was transported to Wright Memorial Hospital in Trenton by Grundy County EMS. He was pronounced by Dr. Randy Allison.

The accident was investigated by Tpr. B.N. Raney, assisted

by Sgt. J.J. Rongey, Major Crash Investigation Unit #1, Sgt. G.D. Ward, Trp. C.D. Ohara, Commercial Vehicle Officer (CVO) K.L. Shewey and CVO R.E. Powell.

The 81st annual meeting of Farmers’ Electric Cooperative was held June 11 at the Gary Dickinson Performing Arts Center in Chillicothe. Nearly 600 members attended.

The member-owners of the Cooperative elected one director to serve a three-year term from District 6 (Linn County). Elected to the Cooperative’s seven-person board of directors was Larry Muck of Meadville.

Retired board member Ray Shields of Meadville was recognized for his 23 years of service to the Cooperative with a framed resolution written in his honor.

Johnny Rainey was sentenced in Daviess County to four years on each of two counts, stealing and possession of controlled substance, with the sentences to run concurrently. He was also sentenced to four years for trafficking in stolen identities, a sentence which will run consecutively to the first two, making his total sentence eight years.

The Raineys were arrested after a search warrant was executed at their home in Gallatin on Oct. 7, 2018, by the Daviess County Sheriff ’s Office, Gallatin Police Department and Missouri Highway Patrol. Stolen items from at least five Gallatin residences were seized. The Gallatin Police Department also recovered evidence related to burglary investigations which they had been working on.

The Raineys were initially charged with stealing (continued on page 9)

Talk about a summer trip...

She’s heading off to Japan!

Jennifer Teel will be taking off for Japan next week to spend 12 days on a cultural exchange program.

Jennifer is going with the People to People Student Ambassador Program. The program was formed in 1956 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Participants have included Joyce Hall, founder of Hallmark Cards, comedian Bob Hope, and Walt Disney, who became one of the founding directors and later drew inspiration from the initiative to create the “It’s a Small World” attraction in 1964.

“The organization gets students together and shows them the world,” says Jennifer. “We do different stuff every single day. I’m most looking forward to hiking Mount Fuji on Day Eight.” (continued on page 12)

The meeting began with the “Star Spangled Banner,” Pledge of Allegiance, and a prayer led

by General Manager Rod Cotton. Board Vice-President W.D. Richards then opened the meeting thanking members for taking time to attend the annual business meeting.

General Manager Rod Cotton welcomed members and remarked that the annual meeting is the time when the directors and manager report to members about the operations and financial health of the Cooperative.

After also recognizing current and retired employees, Cotton reported that the Cooperative had recently received the results of a member satisfaction survey conducted every three years.

Farmers’ Electric achieved a score of 84 on the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI), which is very favorable compared to other utilities and with well-known industry leaders.

As a comparison, the Cooperative had a ranking of 83 three years ago. Cotton also indicated that no rate increase for residential members was planned this year. The last increase for residential members was in 2015.

He also noted that in 2018, the

electric distribution system provided power 99.98% of the time.

The board of directors also retired capital credits for the 27th year in a row, amounting to more than 24 million dollars returned to members since the Cooperative was organized in 1938.

Dana Macoubrie, the Cooperative’s attorney, conducted the election of the board of directors and the election of the 2020 Committee on Nominations.

Elected to the Committee on Nominations were Charlotte Miller, Richard Halterman, John Finley, Dennis Farmer, Stanley Switzer, Melvin Lee, and Judy Holcer, representing each of the Cooperative’s seven districts.

Fifty-seven prizes were given away after the business meeting, plus two grand prizes. Gary Smith of rural Chillicothe won a $500 bill credit from Farmers’ Electric Cooperative.

Derek Jenkins, also of rural Chillicothe, won a 40-inch Smart TV. Youth names were also drawn for two remote-controlled toys. The winners were Charli Worman, daughter of Gordon and Martina Worman of Hale, and Carder Kreatz, son of Justin and Brooke Kreatz of rural Chillicothe.

Fatal injury in Highway 6 accident A Jamesport man was fatally injured in an accident that happened at about 5:30 a.m. on June 13 in Grundy County. According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the accident occurred as Russell Louderback, 61, Trenton, was westbound on Highway 6, and Eric Virtue, 38, Jamesport, was eastbound.

Mr. Louderback was driving a 1997 Ford F-250 pickup. Mr. Virtue was driving a 1999 Chevrolet Cavalier. Abut three miles west of Trenton, Mr. Louderback’s pickup crossed the center line and struck Mr. Virtue’s car head on. The pickup came to rest off the north side of the roadway on its wheels, facing south. The car came to rest off the south side of the road on its wheels, facing south. Mr. Virtue was pronounced dead at the scene by Grundy County Coroner DeWayne Slater. He was wearing his seat belt.

Mr. Louderback, who was not wearing a safety device, received serious injuries and was taken to Wright Memorial Hospital in Trenton, then transferred to St. Luke’s Hospital in Kansas City.

The accident was investigated by Cpr. C.M. Wright, assisted by Grundy County Sheriff, EMS and Fire.

OPINION

June 19, 2019

Rethinking tragedies The shooting of Officer Diab at Winston last Friday is such a tragedy. We must keep this young mother, a student at NCMC and mother to a 4-year-old daughter in prayers.

Incidents such as these electrify the community and offer a glimpse of how neighbors connect in our world today. Some first learned of the shooting through a bank’s telecaster. Many more spread the word using social media, like Facebook. Variations on the details multiplied; in this digital world, gossip formerly shared between neighbors over a backyard fence is essentially the same … but proliferates as if on steroids.

If a newspaper such as this has any place left to serve, it continues as a journal while providing context and depth if for nothing more than archive. And even that role is challenging. Liability issues (Why wasn’t the car equipped with a safety cage? How did the prisoner get free?) and privacy issues (Who were the heroic bystanders?) are hurdles to resolve. No one wants to talk “on the record.”

My, how times have changed.

Among the most heinous crimes I’ve covered during the 40+ years behind the keyboard here occurred on Jan. 6, 1982. Hal Page shot and killed Mary Bergman, 41, and wounded two of her nine children, Carl, 12, and Kevin, 16. Page also killed a local electrician who happened to be working there at the time, Ed Ramsbottom. Page finally turned the gun on himself.

Off the Editor’s Spike...

This double-murder suicide pushed Gallatin briefly into the national news cycle. At the time most folks locally were bewildered as if tragedy such as this could only occur elsewhere. Perhaps those feelings were logical since the Bergmans had moved to Gallaby Darryl Wilkinson tin only about six months before the murders. But the “wrong place at the wrong time” death of Ed Ramsbottom was keenly felt.

Covering that breaking news story was before our digital age. I happened to be walking along the sidewalk in front of the old Woodruff Ice Cream building when my friend, who happened to be a state trooper, wheeled his patrol car abruptly into the parking space right before me. He stuck his head out the window to yell, “Go get your camera… I’ll wait here for you – hurry!” Which I did.

While en route to the Bergman farm north of Gallatin the dispatch radio stuttered out details of the shootings as facts became known.

We were among the earliest to arrive on the scene. In the bottom below the farmhouse, there was a pickup parked beside the roadway.

I was so excited I gave it no thought. But the training of my trooper friend kicked in, and we approached the pickup cautiously since there appeared to be someone sitting behind the wheel.

I don’t remember exactly each step by step. But I can still see that piece of something steaming in the cold, setting atop the pickup’s hood. Yes, Page committed suicide by shooting himself. That piece of something was a part of his skull.

There are other gory details I’ll spare you from reading. But probably because I arrived on the scene and appeared with a state trooper, those in authority soon designated me as the evidence photographer.

I later learned that law enforcement actually preferred my blackand-white film rather than color prints since some court judges wouldn’t allow the “bloody red” to emotionally influence jurors. This I understand. Late that tragic night and deep into the morning hours, I admit to getting a bit spooked developing those scenes while alone in the darkroom.

My point in recounting this is how much times have changed. No digital cameras existed. When the Highway Patrol officially designated (and later paid) me, they controlled all images including those I wanted to publish in my own newspaper. Of course, the daily newspapers, especially at St. Joseph and Kansas City, scooped the story before this little weekly’s account was published. But our depth in reporting details, by comparison, was startling – even prompting one judge in an ensuing newswriter contest to quip that he’d never thought he’d ever say a news story might have too many facts.

What trooper today would pull over and wait on any civilian to accompany him in response to an emergency? In today’s digital world, how many smart phone photos and Facebook posts (emphasis: get it first) wait for facts to be verified (emphasis: get it right) before going public?

I suppose all this comes to mind from an unrelated conversation shared with one our new hires now working here on staff. Although a lifetime native, the Bergman affair occurred before she was born and thus she was totally unaware, ignorant really, that anything like this Darryl Wilkinson, Editor Publisher could ever happen in a small town&like ours.

Which is precisely my point. Perhaps a real tragedy in our digital existence is how easily context can be erased, fragmented to obscurity, or otherwise lost. Immediacy has its place. But so does meaningful context ...and often especially so.

More revenue for license offices awaits Governor’s signature

by State Rep. J. Eggleston

Most of the report’s I’ve written to you outline various bills that were filed as they worked their way through the general assembly. Now that this year’s session is over, this is my fourth report to update you on how some of those bills turned out.

In my April 11th report, I mentioned HB 584, which would increase license office fees to help keep struggling license offices open. In my time in the legislature, Daviess, DeKalb, and Harrison Counties lost their license offices largely due to low foot traffic coupled with low fees. Bethany has their office back, but Maysville, Gallatin, and many other small towns throughout our state do not.

The language of HB 584 passed both House and Senate as a part of HB 499, which was a larger transportation related bill.

It awaits the governor’s signature to become law.

In my April 5th report, I discussed two bills to better inform voters about how their tax dollars are spent.

HB 762 would have established the “Missouri Municipal

Government Expenditure Database”, which would allow the public free access to see how their city governments spend their tax dollars.

HB 374 would have informed voters on the ballot with more information about details of a potential sales tax increase by showing the highest tax rate, lowest tax rate, and average tax rate in the city be published on the ballot giving voters perspective when they vote on potential tax hikes.

Both of these measures passed the House, but did not get traction in the Senate.

In my April 25th report, I discussed HJR 48, which would have put the redistricting portion of the previously passed Amendment 1 back on the ballot to see if voters really wanted the new redistricting method, or if they only wanted the five other ethics reform measures that were in the amendment.

HJR 48 passed the House 10449 on a party line vote on April 29.

It was expected to pass similarly through the Senate, but ran into a snag in committee.

Five committee members

were believed to be in favor and two were against, but three of the five for it did not show up for committee due to other commitments and the chairman held the vote anyway. Consequently, the vote failed 2-2 (a tie is the same as a failure) and the bill died. The legislature will have one more shot next year to pass it before the 2020 census is taken and districts redrawn.

Finally, in my May 2nd report, I discussed the “Better Together” initiative that some special interests in the St. Louis area were pushing to merge St. Louis City with St. Louis County via a statewide vote. Some argue the area would be better if they united, as a large number of local government bureaucracies could be eliminated. The opposite side argued the residents of St. Louis County did not want to inherit the problems of the city.

HJR 54, which passed the House 143-10 on May 2, would have required a St. Louis regional vote to merge instead of a statewide vote. But since then the Better Together group has ended their push for merger making HJR 54 moot.

Congress should embrace USMCA

by Congressman Sam Graves

For farmers, planting season is usually over by now. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case this year. Persistent rain and flooding have kept many of us out of the field. As a result, a lot of acres still haven’t been planted.

The weather has been bad and bad trade deals have made things even more difficult for farmers. We all know the United States has gotten the short end of the stick for years. Deals like the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) have locked farmers out of some markets and shipped American jobs out of the country.

President Trump promised to renegotiate these bad trade deals and has followed through.

As a result, he’s gotten a much better deal called the United

States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA. For farmers, the USMCA is a big win. It will lift longstanding restrictions on selling milk products to Canada -- great news for dairy farmers. Canada has also agreed to lift unfair restrictions on wheat and wine. What’s more, this deal will narrow the trade deficit and increase the number of products made in America.

Most importantly, the USMCA will raise American wages and create new jobs.

Meanwhile, the Section 232 steel and aluminum tariffs are gone. Canada and Mexico have lifted their retaliatory tariffs targeting farmers. Last week’s agreement with Mexico to stem the tide of illegal immigration further paves the way for the USMCA while further securing

our country. Canada and Mexico are both expected to act on the deal soon and President Trump has announced that he is sending it to Congress for approval.

The time to act is now, but Congress hasn’t taken it up.

Unfortunately, Nancy Pelosi is standing in the way. We know it’s a good deal and so does she.

However, she thinks passage of the USMCA would be a “win” for the President. The reality is that this isn’t just a win for President Trump, this is a win for America, a win for American workers, and a desperately needed win for American farmers. We shouldn’t let petty politics get in the way of a good trade deal.

Congress should take up and pass the USMCA immediately, putting America first and setting our country on a solid footing.

A Scientist You Should Know...

Mervin Joe Kelly The 1910 Valedictorian of Gallatin High School, the lab researcher who eventually became Chairman of the Board at Bell Laboratories

Few people have impacted the communications world we live in today more than this innovative giant, Mervin Kelly (1894-1971).

To many, Mervin Kelly’s name does not ring a bell. Born at Princeton, MO, Kelly’s family operated a hardware and farm implement business in Gallatin, MO, where he received his grade and high school education. Kelly graduated as class valedictorian at the age of 16. He studied to become a physicist at the University of Chicago, going on to join the research corps at AT&T. Between 1925 and 1959, Mervin Kelly was employed at Bell Labs, rising from researcher to Chairman of the Board. In 1950, he traveled around Europe, delivering a presentation that explained to audiences how his laboratory worked.

Mr. Kelly had great intelligence and great force. His work with R.A. Millikan at the University of Chicago gave him a lasting appreciation of the rarity and importance of first-rate scientists and first-rate research. He himself did creditable physical research. Later at the Western Electric Company and at Bell Laboratories (which was not formed until 1925), he did early and important work on vacuum tubes, including research, development, and manufacture. His group increased the life of telephone repeater (amplifier) tubes from 1,000 to 80,000 hours which by 1933 led to a transmitting tube for transatlantic telephony and broadcasting with an unprecedented power of 100,000 watts, and then later to a tube with a power of 250,000 watts.

Mr. Kelly was different. His fundamental belief was that an “institute of creative technology” like his own needed a “critical mass” of talented people to foster a busy exchange of ideas. But innovation required much more than that. Mr. Kelly was convinced that physical proximity was everything; phone calls alone wouldn’t do. Quite intentionally, Bell Labs housed thinkers and doers under one roof. Purposefully mixed together on the transistor project were physicists, metallurgists and electrical engineers; side by side were specialists in theory, experimentation and manufacturing. Like an able concert hall conductor, he sought a harmony, and sometimes a tension, between scientific disciplines; between researchers and developers; and between soloists and groups.

A visionary firebrand, Kelly directed vacuum-tube R&D at the labs

One element of his approach was architectural. He personally helped design a building in Murray Hill, N.J., opened in 1941, where everyone would interact with one another. Some of the hallways in the building were designed to be so long that to look down their length was to see the end disappear at a vanishing point. Traveling the hall’s length without encountering a number of acquaintances, problems, diversions and ideas was almost impossible. A physicist on his way to lunch in the cafeteria was like a magnet rolling past iron filings.

Another element of the approach was aspirational.

Bell Labs was sometimes caricatured as an “ivory tower.” But it is more aptly described as an ivory tower with a factory downstairs. It was clear to the researchers and engineers there that the ultimate aim of their organization was to transform new knowledge into new things.

Still another method Mr. Kelly used to push ahead was organizational. He set up Bell Labs’ satellite facilities in the phone company’s manufacturing plants, so as to help transfer all these new ideas into things. But the exchange was supposed to go both ways, with the engineers learning from the plant workers, too. As manufacturing increasingly moved out of the United States during the last half of the 20th Century, it likewise took with it a whole ecosystem of industrial knowledge. But in the past, this knowledge tended to push Bell Labs – and this country – toward new innovations.

Mervin Joe Kelly is arguably the most influential graduate of any Daviess County public school.

Famous others now or soon to be featured at the visitors center include: Namesake: Col. Joseph Daviess Namesake: Albert Gallatini Gunsmith: Valentine Shuler Legend: Samuel Cox Governor: A.M. Dockery House Speaker: J.W. Alexander

Admiral: Richard Cruzen U.S. Senator: Conrad Burns Nutritionist: Icie Macy Hoobler Journalist: Wesley Robertson Novelist: John Selby

Whom would you add to the list of our most famous?

Kelly’s greatest contribution lay in creative technical management. It is no more than just to say that Kelly made Bell Laboratories the foremost industrial laboratory in the world.

Kelly was always and forever pushing the operating management, and the heads of AT&T as well, to get on with new things.

Twice he submitted his resignation to the president of AT&T, stating that important work at Bell Laboratories was not being adequately funded. In each case, he got the funds.

If you’re using a smart phone, it’s proper for you to say “Thank you, Mr. Kelly...”

Foundation funds disaster recovery

Chip seal project scheduled on I-35

A generous donor has seeded a fund at The Community Foundation of Northwest Missouri to provide disaster relief particularly for flood victims in Northwest Missouri.

This out-of -state donor was looking for a community foundation to disperse these funds. The donor is familiar with the model community foundations provide for charitable giving. The donor has given to community foundations in different parts of the country for the purpose of distributing funds where most needed.

The fund will provide natural disaster recovery assistance to northwest Missouri through grants to non-profit organizations that address high-priority community needs.

Jim Blackford, chairman of the foundation board, said “We are humbled by this opportunity to help flood victims at this critical time. Our hope is other donors will add to this fund so we can react to the natural disaster needs of our region.”

The Community Foundation serves the 18 counties of Northwest Missouri through regional collaboration increasing the power of charitable giving and philanthropy to transform the region into an economically vibrant area. It is core to its work to administer charitable funds.

In 2018 its funds gave 713 grants totaling $1.6 million to 193 different nonprofits and 207 scholarship awards.

“This new fund allows us to serve the region in a new and impactful way,” stated Mary R Hinde, President & CEO of The Community Foundation. “I would encourage anyone wishing to help Northwest Missouri to give to this fund for disaster relief.”

A chip seal project to extend the pavement life of Interstate 35 will begin next week from the Iowa state line to Eagleville.

Contractors from Herzog Contracting Corporation, working with the Missouri Department of Transportation, are scheduled to begin work on June 19 and complete the project on June 21.

Wednesday, June 19: Complete southbound driving lane, then turn and complete approximately four miles of the northbound driving lane. This includes the closure of south and northbound ramps on I-35 at U.S. Route 69, Route N and entrance to the Eagleville Missouri Welcome Center. Each ramp will be closed for approximately two hours to allow time for the seal coat to cure.

Thursday, June 20: Complete northbound driving lane, then turn and complete approximately four miles of the southbound passing lane.

Friday, June 21: Complete southbound passing lane, then turn and complete the northbound passing lane.

The project will include overnight lane closure.

Bird, Weigand on CMU dean’s list Central Methodist University recently announced its spring 2019 Dean’s List, which included Jesse Bird from Gallatin, an accounting major, and Miranda Weigand from Weatherby, a chemistry and mathematics double major. They both study at CMU’s main campus in Fayette.

This academic achievement is awarded only to students who maintain a minimum grade point average of 3.50 or above for the semester, among other criteria, according to Dean of the University Dr. Rita Gulstad.

Summer hops — frogging season The Missouri Department of Conservation encourages Missourians to get outdoors and go frogging. Frogging season begins June 30 at sunset and runs through Oct. 31. Those with a fishing permit or small-game hunting permit may frog for bullfrogs and green frogs, though bullfrogs are more popular because of their large size.

The daily limit is eight frogs of both species combined and the possession limit is 16 frogs of both species combined. Only the daily limit may be possessed on waters and banks of waters where hunting. MDC notes that daily limits end at midnight.

Froggers who catch their daily limits before midnight and want to return for more frogging after midnight must remove the daily limit of previously caught frogs from the waters or banks before returning.

The public can go frogging with a fishing or small-game hunting permit, but children 15 and under and residents 65-years and older are not required to have a permit.

Those using a fishing permit may take frogs by hand, hand net, atlatl, gig, bow, trotline, throwline, limb line, bank line, jug line, snagging, snaring, grabbing, or pole and line.

With a small-game hunting permit, frogs may be harvested using a .22-caliber or smaller rimfire rifle or pistol, pellet gun, atlatl, bow, crossbow, or by hand or hand net. The use of artificial light is permitted when frogging.

Free kayaking class The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) will offer free kayaking classes in two sessions on Thursday, July 11, at Pike’s Lake at the Poosey Conservation Area northwest of Chillicothe in Livingston County.

The first session will be from 9 to 11 a.m., and the second will be from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Thank You We wish to thank everyone for the cards, phone calls, gifts, visits, and well wishes for our 65th wedding anniversary. It all meant so much to us. Thanks again and may God bless you.

Three injured on Highway 190 Three people received moderate injuries in an accident that happened at about 3:43 p.m. on June 12 in Livingston County.

According to the highway patrol, the crash occurred as Lisa Piburn, 51, Winston, was westbound on Highway 190 and David Mitchell, 57, Chillicothe, was southbound on Livingston 515.

Mr. Mitchell pulled into the path of Ms. Piburn and her vehicle, a 2010 Dodge Journey, struck his vehicle, a 2007 Chrysler Town and Country, in the front driver’s side. Both vehicles traveled off the south side of Highway 190 and came to rest on their wheels, facing south.

The highway is no place for a driver who has been drinking. Alcohol impairs your motor skills and attention. Respect the lives of others. Stay off the highways if you’ve been drinking. A public service announcement from this newspaper and your Missouri State Highway Patrol.

Patience urged on roadways after floods Motorists should exercise patience and caution as they travel rural roadways this summer, urges Jim Humphrey, a University of Missouri Extension livestock specialist based in Andrew County.

In areas hit by historic flooding this spring, travel remains treacherous and cumbersome as farmers try to plant their crops and motorists look for alternate routes.

Standing water has damaged many rural roadways. Farmers moving equipment from field to field may encounter crumbling road shoulders as they pull over to let other vehicles pass. Even before spring flooding began, many roads had already suffered damage from heavy snows and ice in the winter of 2018.

In addition, road closures have diverted traffic to rural

roads. The influx of drivers unfamiliar with two-lane roads compounded traffic problems as farmers rushed to get a crop in between rains. Trucks hauling gravel and sand for road, railroad and levee repairs also increased traffic. Humphrey noted that quarries in his area were running trucks on weekends to haul supplies for repairs.

Frequent rains delayed mowing of grass along roadways and intersections, resulting in limited visibility due to overgrown grass.

Northwestern Missouri has seen several serious accidents recently that Humphrey says were indirectly related to spring flooding. The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported that a 17-year-old Stanberry youth driving a tractor was killed in a June 5 accident on state High-

way O. According to the patrol, the youth moved into the center of the road to avoid a culvert just as a dump truck was attempting to pass. The truck hit the tractor, sending it rolling into a ditch.

A farmer was hospitalized after a dump truck crested a hill and struck a tractor near Savannah on May 28. In April, four people were injured near Stewartsville when an SUV rearended a tractor.

“This problem is not going away anytime soon,” Humphrey says. “We have a lot of things that are not normal this year.”

MU Extension health and safety specialist Karen Funkenbusch notes that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists transportation incidents as the leading cause of farm-related fatalities.

Summer is

between school and pool 208 students enrolled in Gallatin Summer School this year Summer School is held every day from June 3 through June 28, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Field trips are scheduled each Friday. All students who have remained in good standing during the week get to participate in the field trip. The students have gone swimming in Trenton and were planning to go to the Gallatin pool, but the weather was too cold and rainy that day. A trip to Simpson Park/bowling in Chillicothe is planned for June 21; swimming at Chillicothe Bay on the menu for June 28. Barron Gann is the Gallatin Summer School Principal.

The Gallatin City Pool is open 1-6 p.m. every day. Private lessons are from 6-6:45 Monday through Thursday. Attendance has been very much affected by rain and cool temperatures, according to Laurie Roll, manager. For instance, two private evening swim parties had to be canceled and several private swimming lessons had to be called off because of storms. Adult supervisors at the City Pool are Elizabeth Plotner, Jake Cook, and Laurie Walton-Roll, manager for the last 10 years.

Gallatin pool lifeguards, front from left, are Tristen Gibson, Briar Roll, Jacob Wilson; back row, Sydney Cook, Maelea Coulson, Abigail Marble, and Jenna Rains. Not pictured are Macie McNeely and David Roll.

Jennifer Teel embraces ‘People to People’ to visit Japan Jennifer will take an in-depth journey and see the ancient shrines and neon-lit skyscrapers, discover the futuristic fashion trends and phenomenon of anime.

Jennifer will come to understand more about Japanese politics and religion as the group explores the Asakusa Sensoji Temple, Tsukiji Market and the Asakusa Kannon Temple. And that’s all on just Day Three.

Jennifer was anonymously recommended by a teacher at the Gallatin R-5

High School, where she will be a senior.

The students will meet at the Seattle, WA, airport, on June 27, and from there fly to Japan. Jennifer says she has traveled quite a bit in the United States, but this will be her first out-of-state trip.

“This is a really good program for students,” Jennifer says. “We’ll experience different cultures and meet new people and experience life through the eyes of a Japanese peer.”

The organization travels to a multitude

(continued from page 1)

of places, but Jennifer chose to go to Tokyo.

“I really like the Asian culture,” she says. “I’ve been learning the language for a while on my own. I can’t speak it fluently.

I know a few phrases, like hello, thank you, goodbye.”

The group of 21 students will have three leaders. The students hail from all over the country. Jennifer is the only student from Missouri. Students home-stay with a Japanese family.

Jennifer plans to be an elementary teacher and looks forward visiting a Japanese school.

“One of the fun things I’m most excited about is helping to teach English to elementary students,” says Jennifer. “I’m interested in being an English as a Second Language teacher as a hobby.”

Jennifer is the daughter of Julie Vyrostek, Gallatin, and Darrell Teel, Pattonsburg, and granddaughter of Del Ray and Judy Vyrostek of Gallatin.
