Local farmer seeks more transparency in commodity market (NFA), during his campaign for accountability. Bell feels the selfregulatory nature of the NFA creates few safeguards that prevent farmers from getting burned by dishonest commodity brokers. Bellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey began in November 2006 when he opened a soybean account with a broker on the Minneapolis Grain Exchange. He had a long-term goal of buying soybean positions to hold through the summer, however, things WXUQHG VRXU MXVW Ă&#x20AC;YH PRQWKV LQWR his investment.

Chronicle Editorial

A lesson not long forgotten Today marks yet another anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, and the occasion never gets any easier no matter how many years pass between that fateful day. The United States has seen incredible changes throughout the past 12 years. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gone to war, seen thousands of troops die in the line of battle and witnessed a massive overhaul of our national security policies. Government agencies have expanded greatly to handle the ever-evolving threat of global terrorism, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a reality we must face every day. Sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to forget how good we have it. We get caught up in our day-to-day lives and stop paying attention to the things that matter most. Our jobs take precedence and we lose connection with family, friends and other things that should be priorities. ZDV D KRUULÂżF DQG WUDPDWL]LQJ HYHQW LQ $PHULFDÂśV history.

Each year Preservation Iowa (PI) seeks to honor individuals, organizations, projects, and programs whose work demonstrates a commitment to excellence in historic preservation. In doing so, PI hopes to inspire others to take action to preserve, protect, and promote Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s places that matter. There are nine categories of Preservation at Its Best Awards. Nominated projects must have been completed within the geographic boundaries of Iowa and completed between Jan. 1, 2012 and June 1, 2013. Projects are judged on degree of historic preservation excellence, community impact, quality of work completed, and thoroughness of nomination submitted. The Hampton Band Shell won in the Public Structure category. The nomination was prepared by Greater Franklin County Chamber of Commerce summer intern Tyler Conlon. The award was presented at the 2013 Preserve Iowa Summit in Burlington on Aug. 24. Accepting the award were Hampton City Council member Jim Davies, Hampton Main Street Coordinator Kristina Raisch, and Brook Boehmler, former Executive Director of the Greater Franklin County Chamber of Commerce.

Titus wins Firebird in KLMJ car giveaway By Nick Pedley

the key in before I even started it,â&#x20AC;? Titus said. He was happy with his luck, but Titus was unsure whether heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d keep the car or sell it. He and his wife go south for the winter, but they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take a car along â&#x20AC;&#x201C; only a truck and a camper. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you get to be our age it gets tough getting in and out of those things, too,â&#x20AC;? he said. Titus said he has plenty of storage space if he decides to keep the car. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an avid collector of classic tractors and has room available in his sheds. KLMJ General Manager Craig Donnelly said the radio station would UHPRYH WKH GHFDOV EHIRUH RIÂżFLDOO\ handing over ownership to Titus. The car giveaway wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only event planned througout the lucheon. The station provided a hotdog meal and numerous youngsters enjoyed the kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; games held on the yard. The picnic tables were packed and numerous visitors passed through during the celebration. Donnelly provided guests with brief history of the radio station prior to the giveaway. It began in as a satellite of KSMN-Mason City in 1953 before becoming its own entity in 1983. Wayne Grant started KWGG-104.9 FM that year, and the station later became KLMJ104.9 FM in 1993. Additionally, KLMJ Music Director Mike Betten was honored for 25 years of service to the radio station. Fellow employees presented Betten with a record plaque to mark the milestone.

KLMJ hosted its highly-anticipated 30-year anniversary luncheon last Sunday at the Harriman-Nielsen House, and one lucky visitor walked away with a vintage set of wheels. Garold Titus, Aredale, won the 1983 Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am giveaway contest sponsored by the radio station. The car was part of KLMJâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 30-year celebration and made its way to 105 local festivals, locations and community events throughout the area this summer. According to station employees, over 4,000 miles were put on the car during its tour. 7LWXV ZDV RQH RI ÂżQDOLVWV VHOHFWHG IURP D OLVW RI TXDOLÂżHUV People registered their name during the spring and summer and were gradually selected to the list of 100 during the past few months.

The Pontiac roared to life to much applause and cheers from the crowd. Titus gave a thumbs-up and revved the engine in celebration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was surprised when I stuck the key in and it started going â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;beep, beep,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; because the door was open.

FUTUREâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S SO BRIGHT, WEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;VE GOT TO WEAR SHADES Fall Athletics on Pace for their Preseason Goals Boys & Girls Cross Country The girls and boys cross country teams had a 2012 season full of memorable moments. They found multiple medalists in graduate Chris Huling, a two-time state meet TXDOLĂ&#x20AC;HU IRU WKH ER\V DQG UHWXUQLQJ sophomore Jordan Prantner brought home her share of hardware for the girls team. The girls had a strong group of seniors with the leadership of Haley Toomsen, Haley Hansen, and Meg Hanson and earned a team victory at Central Springs. This year ushered in new goals, and thus far, both teams are right on pace to achieving them. In a preseason plagued by record high temperatures, head boys and girls cross country coach, Steve Huling, is especially grateful for what he calls, â&#x20AC;&#x153;a great group of kids who try hard and get along well.â&#x20AC;? He helped the team battle the temperatures by arranging for runners

to have some of their practices at the Hampton Aquatic Center in the pool. The H-D girls team returns four runners from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s varsity squad: Jordan Prantner, Jessica Speake, Illiana Bartsch, and Bekah Christiansen. Grant Lehmann, Max Lehmann, Jacob Jungck, Chase Skarpness and Edgar Romo return for the boys, although Huling predicts that with Will Alert, Jacob Grefe and Brandon Holness running well, they too will be helping the varsity squad this season. This season, both teams have set team goals. While the girls want WR JHW JHW Ă&#x20AC;YH JLUOV FDSDEOH RI UXQning varsity, the boys will try to get Ă&#x20AC;YH ER\V XQGHU WKH WZHQW\ PLQXWH mark. One thing is for sure, they are improving every day and enjoying each other in the process.

Football The 2013 H-D football season is well underway with several games and scrimmages already in the books. Perhaps where the season actually started however was in the weight room over the summer, where dozens of hopeful bulldogs gathered daily to prepare for the upcoming season. Many of those players travelled to Pella in July to attend the Central College football camp where they competed with teams like Knoxville and Davenport North. Thus far, football coach Jerry Shaffrath has been extremely pleased with the effort of his six seniors. Dalton Hanson, Justin Wenzel, Levi Pratt, Tylor Jondal, Eduardo Flores and Aaron Meyer make up the sextuplet of veterans for this season. They are met by a staggering fourteen returning letter winners, creating a great deal of buzz for this gridiron gang.

The football team comes off of D GLIĂ&#x20AC;FXOW FDPSDLJQ 7KH\ went 2-7 after a heartbreaking overtime loss to Central Springs and a one-point loss to Osage (those two losses alone kept them from the playoffs). Graduation leaves this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dogs without Josh Bauer, Andrew Benning, Nick Baily, or Spencer Tidman. Despite the loss, Shaffrath and his team have high expectations for this season. One advantage they will have is the experience of their juniors and seniors. Shaffrath explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have several athletes who return with some great stats who will make major contributions.â&#x20AC;? The bulldogs kicked off their season with a home 21-0 victory over Denver.

The girls are excited to demonstrate how well they work together. Senior Carolina Diosdado says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have been communicating really well and I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to see how we do this season!â&#x20AC;? Whitney Ringleb, also a senior, continues, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a lot of good players and we should be able to work as a team better than ever.â&#x20AC;?

Volleyball According to head volleyball coach, Cinda Barz, her players have a new excitement this year that has created a new attitude for her team. While she understands her team is young, she recognizes the VLJQLĂ&#x20AC;FDQFH RI WKHLU GDLO\ LQWHQVLW\ She explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;As long as we can keep the intensity going through the season, we will be a team to watch out for.â&#x20AC;? The 2012 team that went 4-22 saw the graduation of seven seniors: Tayrn Barz, Taryn Kline, Rachel Miller, Kaylynn Rowan, Demi Monaghan, Madison Creighton, and Madison Sietsma. Despite the profound loss, Barzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal is to push this team to a level she hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yet seen. 7KH VTXDG UHWXUQHG Ă&#x20AC;YH letter winners.

When dealing with the health and safety of students and athletes, it is always better to be safe than sorry. When dealing with potential brain injuries in students and athletes however, neglect is downright dangerous. 7KLV IDOO IRU WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW WLPH ever, middle school and high school fall and winter athletes at Hampton-Dumont, both male and female, were required to undergo concussion testing. These tests are not conducted to determine if athletes have concussions, but to establish a baseline of behavior for each athlete, so that if, in the future, they show signs of traumatic brain injury, test administers have a way of determining if

their behavior is abnormal. According to Activities Director Nate Boock, the tests will help to inform coaching staff, trainers, and doctors on what to do, and it will help them determine when an athlete can return to play. Many have asked why concussions and traumatic brain injury have become such hot topics in high school athletics in recent years. The statistics should speak for themselves. Concussions can cause both long and short term changes that may affect thinking, sensation, language and emotions, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Medical Xpress estimates that up to 3.8 million sports-related

concussions occur in the United States every year. Bailey Condon, a junior at Hampton-Dumont, suffered a concussion last year when a fall in the shuttle-hurdle relay landed her on her head. Condon got medical attention immediately, but says the effects her injury had on the rest of her school \HDU ZHUH QRW LQVLJQLĂ&#x20AC;FDQW 6KH explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had trouble focusing in class and found I was very irritable. I still notice the effects it has on my personality and ability to perform academically.â&#x20AC;? H-D testing took place within a two-day window. With DWKOHWHV DQG Ă&#x20AC;YH WUDLQers from Accelerated Rehab out of Mason City conducting

the tests, testing took several hours. Boock concludes it went smoothly. During the tests, students were asked to perform a series of physical and mental tasks. Sophomore volleyball player Ashlyn Hansen explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;They asked me to stand on one foot with my eyes closed, say the months backwards, and reSHDW Ă&#x20AC;YH ZRUGV EDFN Âľ $WKOHWHV were also asked simple questions about the date and time. Hampton-Dumont administration also recognizes the importance of education and awareness of traumatic brain injury for the coaching staff. Boock says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The coaching staff currently completes a concussion course offered through the National Federation. Coaches will also be helping with the education process for our parents and athletes through parent meetings.â&#x20AC;? He goes on to explain that his goal is to have trainers come in from Accelerated Rehab to continue educating coaches and staff about the dangers of concussions, how to prevent them, and what to do if they suspect an athlete has suffered one. When concussion testing is

conducted, it is the hope of all involved that the information obtained never has to be used. And while watching contact sports can be scary, H-D parents may rest a little easier knowing that steps have been taken to ensure the safety of their children.

Concussions by the Numbers *Concussions account for 13.2% of all high school athletic injuries. *Athletes ages 1619 sustain 29% of all athletic related concussions. *There are 1.6- 3.8 million sports related concussions in the United States every year. *For young people ages 15-24 years, sports are the most common cause of traumatic brain injury (second only to motor vehicle accidents).

Serving a purpose: West Fork keeps Franklin County volleyball crown

By Kristi Nixon LATIMER â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Four years of varsity volleyball and West Forkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lindsey Peterson has never lost the trophy given to the Franklin County triangular winners. She made sure of it with her serving in the Warhawksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 25-19, 25-21 win over Hampton-Dumont to complete a county sweep after topping CAL 25-13, 25-14 in the Ă&#x20AC;UVW PDWFK â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really awesome because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played since my freshman year â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my fourth year in a row winning it,â&#x20AC;? Peterson said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty awesome winning the championship.â&#x20AC;? It marked the seventh year in a row West Fork has claimed the county title in volleyball. But it had to work in both games against Hampton-Dumont as the Bulldogs fought to tie it at 14 in the Ă&#x20AC;UVW JDPH DQG DW LQ WKH VHFRQG ,Q WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW JDPH Ă&#x20AC;UVW \HDU :HVW Fork coach Abbee Gappa called timeout to regroup after H-Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lexi Sorenson served up an ace to tie the score. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just said that we needed to regain everything that we had lost,â&#x20AC;? Gappa said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The momentum had shifted a little bit and we did a little better as we took the blockers off and were able to tip a little bit more and it played out in our favor.â&#x20AC;? After that timeout, the Warhawks achieved sideout and Peterson went RQ D VHUYLQJ UXQ IRU Ă&#x20AC;YH VWUDLJKW West Fork points to force an H-D timeout. Peterson had six aces against the %XOOGRJV Â˛ IRXU LQ WKDW Ă&#x20AC;UVW JDPH run. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just know I can place the ball in a good spot where no one is, which is kind of what I try to do,â&#x20AC;? Peterson explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if people realize that, but I just try to get the best serve that I can. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I look at the court and see if there is like an open shot short Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take it or I serve deep if a person isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as long (on the court) as possible. I try to pick on them.â&#x20AC;?

CALâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Quinones scores three TDs in loss to RRMR By Nick Pedley Despite marked improvement from their season opener, the CAL football team fell to Rudd-Rockford0DUEOH 5RFN )ULGD\ QLJKW LQ Latimer. RRMR jumped out to an early 20-0 lead and never looked back. Warrior quarterback Ryan Turner picked apart the CAL secondary and threw for 232 yards, four touchdowns and completed 18-of SDVV DWWHPSWV &DGHW KHDG FRDFK Scott Striegel felt the game was much closer than it appeared and saw many improvements from the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Week 1 performance, despite the lopsided score. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very pleased with our overall team atmosphere, it was much better this week and our attitude was much

better,â&#x20AC;? Striegel observed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we do the right things and not get beat over the top, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a 40-20 ball game.â&#x20AC;?

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing a lot of young kids on defense.â&#x20AC;? CAL gave up 509 total yards to the Warriors. Striegel felt the Cadets need to work at getting better angles to put themselves in better position to make more tackles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was better this week, but not what it needs to be at this level and especially in this district.

district is tough,â&#x20AC;? he said. Juan Carlos Calles paced CAL on defense with three solo tackles, three assists and one interception. Angel Cano, Hunter Schliesman and Juan Trinidad each contributed a sack during the game. Additionally, seniors Quinones and Taylor Rapp Ă&#x20AC;QLVKHG WKH QLJKW ZLWK VHYHQ WRWDO tackles apiece. Striegel saw many positives on offense, but noted certain adjustments and improvements need to be made before the Cadetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; next game. He also pointed towards a lack of experience in key positions like quarterback and tight end as reasons for lower production. CAL accumulated only 242 yards of total offense against RRMR. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Offensively, we did a lot better

job of sustaining some drives, and I think our run game was there. We still have a lot of work to do on our passing game,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to work on that so we can become a little more balanced offensively.â&#x20AC;? Quinones was the obvious workhorse for the Cadet offense. He racked up 123 yards on 13 rushes for an average of 9.5 yards-per-carry. His longest rushing score came on D \DUG UXQ LQ WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW TXDUWHU Miguel Calles followed with 21 yards on 10 carries. 4XQLRQHVÂˇ \DUG WRXFKGRZQ reception was one of CALâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two completions on the night.

Minnesota. Bears have too many question marks for me to pick them this week. Dallas. Cowboy defense will likely be too tough for the Chiefs. Nebraska. Arguably one of the toughest places to play in the country. I expect a tough contest. Alabama. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bama is just too tough across the board. Johnny Football will have his hands full.

Minnesota. The Bears always let me down. Dallas (YHQ WKRXJK , KDWH WR DGPLW LW Nebraska. Huskers at home. Are you kidding me? Alabama. The Tide will roll. Iowa 21, ISU 20. About time a close one went Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way. And with ISUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kicking gameâ&#x20AC;Ś

Minnesota. Peterson runs over the Bears (over 150 yards and a touchdown). Dallas. Miles Austin torches Chiefsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; secondary (over 100 yards and touchdown). UCLA. UCLA wins big at Nebraska. Alabama doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give Johnny Football a reason to celebrate. Iowa 21, ISU 14. ISU heading toward a winless season.
