It also gives them a running start for the next election cycle and receive a little tutoring at the same time, so they’ll have a good base of knowledge for Iowa’s elections process,” Secretary Pate said. “I hope this fired them up and will also spur them to encourage their parents, neighbors POLL to page 10

The victim reported that after being bound with zip ties, she was kneed in the back and groin area as well as

Veterans Day programs planned for Nov. 11 Rebecca Peter

gleadernews@qwestoffice.net On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918, an armistice between the Allied nations and Germany ended the “Great War” (World War I). “Armistice Day”, as it was known, became a federal holiday in the United States in 1938. Following World War II and the Korean War, the name was changed to “Veterans Day” in 1954 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower to honor American veterans of all wars. In honor of our veterans, Veterans Day programs will be held Friday, Nov. 11 at Garner, Britt, Kanawha, Ventura, and LuVerne. Garner The 63rd annual Veterans Day program will be held Friday, Nov. 11 at 10:30 a.m. at the Garner-Hayfield-Ventura High School gymnasium. Posting of the Colors will be done by the Garner Ceremonial Unit, Commander Mark Prohaska, followed by the singing of the “Star Spangled Banner” by the GHV Honor Choir. Senior class treasurer Olivia Carew will lead the audience in the Pledge of Allegiance. Joshua Chizek, student body president, will give the welcome and introductory remarks. Derek Brown, senior class president, will give an explanation of Veterans Day, followed by the “Armed Forces Medley” by the GHV concert band.

Veterans from World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Iraq and Afghan conflicts, peacetime veterans and current service personnel will be recognized.

struck in the head. She was seen by medical staff to document the injuries. Dann stated the only contact that he had with the woman on that date, was when he was trying to hold her down when she was having a seizure. A search warrant of the Dann residence produced black zip ties cut into small pieces. First degree kidnapping is a Class A felony that carries a mandatory sentence of life in prison. Domestic abuse assault (2nd Offense) is an aggravated misdemeanor. A jury trial has been scheduled for January 18, 2017. Dann remains in custody in the Hancock County Jail in lieu of $100,000 cash bond on the kidnapping charge and $1,000 bond on the assault charge.

Water/sewer rates to go up at Ventura Rebecca Peter

gleadernews@qwestoffice.net VENTURA – Water and sewer rates will be going up at Ventura beginning January of 2017. The city council recently approved a third and final reading of an ordinance to increase the rates in a 3 – 1 vote. According to city administrator Else Taylor, the City of Ventura is in the process of increasing the water/sewer rates and moving to a monthly billing cycle. “After a full review of the 2016 Iowa League of Cities rate study, the council has concluded that a rate change is necessary,” Taylor said. “Unanticipated main break repairs, big ticket maintenance items and pending well monitoring control system upgrades have necessitated the need to increase the rates. Taylor noted that the current system SHOW TIMES Fri.-Sat., Mon.-Thurs. 7 pm Sunday 4 pm & 7 pm Adults $4 Children $3 (under 12) 3D + $2 Visa, Mastercard & Discover accepted

was installed in 1978 and until recently, has experienced very few system control or main failures. “At this point in time, the utility needs to prepare for what is going to take place over the next five years and beyond,” she said. With the new rates, a typical minimum monthly bill for up to 5,000 gallons would be: •Water - $25 •Tax - $1,75 •Sewer - $17.50 Garbage - $10 Total - $54.75 In other business, the city council discussed the increase of boat hoist storage on the northwest side of the 700 block of E Lake Street. The general consensus of the council was to have Attorney Mike Moeller proceed with sending a letter to the owners appraising them of the concerns. No formal action taken on this item.

Bringing healthcare to you.

By Jennifer Snyder, diabetic educator, Hancock County Health System What are the dangers of not treating diabetes? Unless a person who has diabetes takes steps to manage it properly, it can lead to heart attacks, strokes, amputations, blindness, kidney failure and nerve damage. It’s not easy finding out that you or a loved one has diabetes. However, educating yourself about this disease is he first step toward feeling better and living a longer and healthier life. Make sure you keep a close eye on your blood glucose levels. Your health care provider may want you to start checking your glucose (or blood sugar) levels at home. If so, you will need a small machine called a blood glucose meter. Your health care team can help you find the best meter for your needs. Keeping your blood glucose levels in a healthy range is key in controlling your diabetes. Make sure you take your pre-

If you believe you’re having side effects, be sure to call your doctor or pharmacist.

Thanksgiving for seniors and their caregivers This holiday is a favorite holiday among seniors due to its authentic traditions and its great food. However, Thanksgiving can be stressful to hosts, seniors and their caregivers. Prepare special meals for seniors. As people age, they lose their ability to taste certain foods because their taste buds begin to fail. They may also lose the ability to chew properly and may need a special meal for the holidays. To make things easier on them, you may want to make food that is easier for your loved one to chew and digest. Have patience. Patience is an important virtue to behold if you are a caregiver, but having patience may be difficult at times. When the person that you loved dearly for your entire life begins to change in front of your eyes, it may be difficult to reconcile their new self with their old self. However, they still are your loved ones and deserve respect and patience. If your loved one has emotional or physical outbursts, then patience is an even greater need in your life. Take any help you can. At a family gathering, you probably will have many family members available to help you take care of your loved one. If anyone offers you help, then take it. The more help you receive, the easier your holiday may go. Don’t forget about yourself. If you are too focused on making sure your loved one is comfortable and happy, then you won’t enjoy the holiday yourself. This may lead to feeling burnout and disappointment that the holiday didn’t go well. Always remember to enjoy yourself on Thanksgiving while making sure your loved one is also having fun. Here is some advice for seniors. Don’t dine alone, even if you

don’t have family members to celebrate Thanksgiving with. Many senior centers, community centers and churches provide Thanksgiving meals each year. Sharing the holiday experience with others can lift your spirits and keep you in the holiday mood. Plus, you’ll get a hearty meal out of the experience and maybe make a few friends. Watch what you eat and drink. Although it may be easy and tempting to eat everything you see at a Thanksgiving meal, that probably isn’t the best idea. Holiday foods tend to be fatty, salty and high in calories. Overeating these foods can lead to heartburn, upset stomach and digestive issues. In some cases, overeating these foods can also lead to a heart attack. To avoid the negative consequences of alcohol, drink in moderation or don’t drink at all. Alcohol can cause negative social and physical side effects, and can alert the effects of certain medications. Focus on your health. Your health should always be your number one priority even during the holidays. If you feel out of sorts during the holiday season, then make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible. Colds, flu and depression are more common during the winter season. The best thing to remember about Thanksgiving is to have fun and give thanks. Thanksgiving is a joyous holiday that shouldn’t be stressful on the caregiver or your elderly loved one.

You may also contact LifeLong Links at www.lifelonglinks. org, or by calling 866-468-7887.

Voices heard It’s over. For better or worse, this terrible election is over. Or at least it will be by the time you read this. Right now, as I type this, there is an approximately 75 percent chance I will be breathing a sigh of relief and a 25 percent chance I will be refreshing myself on passport requirements. If you’re reading this, then you already know the results of the election. Lucky you. I, on the other hand, have to write a column for a world that will, one way or the other, be fundamentally changed before it sees print. It’s frustrating. The election is the one topic worth writing about, but anything I write at this point will be seen too late to matter. So, ignoring the pink elephant in the room, what else is there to comment on? Well… how about the video game voice actor’s strike? That’s something that likely won’t be resolved before Wednesday. Here’s the scoop. More than a year ago the Screen Actor’s Guilt (SAG-AFTRA) entered into negotiations with a conglomerate of major video game publishers to update their contracts for video game voice work. Among their demands were shorter sessions for vocally strenuous recording, stunt coordination for roles that utilize motion capture, transparency over what game they are working on before taking the part, and residual payments for successful games. Most of these conditions aren’t very controversial. Nobody wants to see a voice actor face plant on the ground during motion capture because a stunt coordinator wasn’t around to properly secure a harness. Likewise, when your recording session involves hours of screaming, yelling, and grunting, it makes sense to break them up into shorter sessions. A hoarse voice actor isn’t good for anybody. But, not surprisingly, the issue comes down to money. The voice

actors guild has asked for up to four secondary payments of 25 percent of their original session payment, to be paid out whenever a game sells 2 million units of a game. Residual payments like these are common for movies and television, but less so for video games. Instead, representatives of the game developers offered a nine percent raise to the base rate. It was not accepted. Unable to come to agreement, the voice actors are now on strike. This is a tricky conundrum. On the one hand, voice actors are asking the games industry to adapt themselves to the Hollywood model. Developers don’t get residuals and the amount they contribute to a game’s success is far and away more substantial than voice acting. Moreover, it’s not like voice actors have the kind of leverage they do when it comes to other forms of voice work. Creating a compelling animated feature without voice actors would be pretty difficult, but video games got along without voice acting just fine for years. On the other hand, the kind of video games that these publishers make don’t really exist without voice acting. Warner Bros. Interactive released the best Batman movies ever made. Those movies just happened to play out between segments of gameplay. Likewise, nobody ever played a Mass Effect game because it was a great shooter, they played it because it was a compelling work of science fiction driven by professional grade voice talent. And while developers may not get residuals, they do get steady salaries and benefits. Voice actors may only get paid for working for a few hours a month, but in between those recording sessions are hours of auditions, research, and training.

On the other other hand, that’s really just an argument for paying the voice actors more up-front. Doing the job has to be worth their time. If the developers are willing to offer higher base pay, then shouldn’t that be enough? On the other other other hand, getting residual payments for successful games may net voice actors more money, but only on the games that can afford to pay them more. This leaves the upfront cost lower, making voice acting a feature smaller games can afford to include. There is certainly room to see both sides. Voice actors are demanding uncommonly generous compensation for the video game industry while providing a service of questionable value. On the other hand, you get what you pay for. Unless these developers want to go back to text boxes or having programmers and relatives do the voice work for their games, they might have to play ball. I’m sure a compromise can be made that works for both sides. And if it can be made here, maybe there’s hope for the future resident of the White House. Travis Fischer is a news writer for Mid-America Publishing and doesn’t have a problem with text boxes.

CLEAR LAKE - Area runners and walkers are invited to “turn the lights on” for Opportunity Village’s Festival of Trees celebration at the fourth annual Lights on 5K Run/Walk. Registration is now open for the Lights on 5K, scheduled Dec. 1, at 4:30 p.m. The run begins at The Other Place, 200 Hwy. 18, and follows streets throughout the Opportunity Village neighborhood in northwest Clear Lake. Participants are encouraged to dress in holiday lights and costumes. The run is a benefit for Opportunity Village. All proceeds from registration and donations will buy Christmas gifts for individuals with disabilities supported through the Village. Last year, the event raised more than $4,300 to buy for 71 people who wouldn’t otherwise have gifts under their tree.

Registration will run through Nov. 14. Cost is $20 per person, and will increase to $25 after Nov. 14. This event is sponsored by Wayne’s Ski and Cycle, WeCare Chiropractic, The Other Place, Splash MultiSport and Custom, Holmes Murphy and McKesson Corp. The Lights On 5K Run/Walk precedes Opportunity Village’s 21st annual Festival of Trees, scheduled Dec. 2-4. The festival features more than 100 decorated trees, wreaths

and swags on display and for sale. The fundraiser event kicks off with opening night on Friday, Dec. 2. Breakfast With Santa and family activities, including Secret Santa Workshop, will be on Saturday, Dec. 3. A cookie walk will be held on Sunday, Dec. 4. Proceeds from the Festival support individuals with disabilities receiving services from Opportunity Village. Information and tickets for Festival of Trees are available online at www.ovfot.org. Tickets also are for sale at the Village General Store in Clear Lake or the Opportunity Village main office. Questions on both events may be directed to Jennifer Pinske at jpinske@oppvill.org or 641-355-1356, or Gordon Peterson at gpeterson@ oppvill.org or 641-355-1247.

The North Iowa Area Community College John Pappajohn Entrepreneurial Center will conduct an Entrepreneur for a Day program (E4D®) for the Garner-Hayfield-Ventura 5th grade students on November 15 in Ventura and at NIACC on November 21. Over 70 students will participate in the two-session program that is sponsored by Reliance State Bank of Garner. The Entrepreneur for a Day (E4D®) program is dedicated to teaching 5th grade students the fundamental principles of entrepreneurship and how to start a business. Students learn the distinct differences between becoming an entrepreneur and being an employee. One of the goals of the program is to get

kids thinking about being a job creator versus a job taker. The program encourages them to view entrepreneurship as a viable career pathway and understand that passions can become vocations. During this two-session program, participants experience business planning, financial literacy, marketing concepts, work place concepts, social responsibility and team-building skills. This marks the first step in getting entrepreneurship education into the schools. During the first day, trained facilitators visit the students’ classroom and get them excited about the program by introducing terms and concepts of entrepreneurship. The second day, students are invited to

visit the NIACC campus where they choose a product, borrow money from a bank, buy resources they will need, make the product, then sell the product and determine if they made a profit. The visit concludes with a tour of NIACC which offers students a sense of campus life, diversity and validates college. Many of these students may be the first generation in their families to attend college, and the campus presence enables the students to make a post-secondary connection. Eighteen school districts and over 1,400 5th grade students in North Iowa will participate in E4D this school year. E4D is in its tenth year of working with students in this region.

Hancock County Memorial Hospital named among ‘Best Hospital’

ASAP hosts prescription drug drop-off day

Rebecca Peter | The Leader

ASAP (Allies for Substance Abuse Prevention) hosted a prescription drug drop-off day at Britt on Saturday, Nov. 5. Residents can securely deposit their unused, expired or unwanted prescription medicines in the MedReturn box located at the Britt Police Department. ASAP Director Karie Terhark, Britt Police Chief Dan Cummings and Sandy Rayhons, ASAP Coordinator also handed out information about the importance of proper drug disposal.

BRITT – Hancock County Memorial Hospital made the list of “Best Hospitals” in the 2017 edition of the U.S. News and World Report for successfully meeting performance measures in the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association “Get With the Guidelines” quality improvement program. HCMH obtained Silver Achievement in the area of heart failure. Hospitals included in this category were recognized for 12 consecutive months of 85 percent or higher adherence on all achievement measures applicable to heart failure. Consistent adherence to these treatment guidelines has been shown to have a tangible impact on patients’ lives. “This is a tribute to (HCMH’s) dedication to providing the very highest level of patient care,” said Nancy Brown, chief executive officer of the American Heart Association /American Stroke Association. “We applaud (HCMH) and its team for contributing to our mission of building healthier lives, free of car-

diovascular disease and stroke.” Iowa had nine hospitals named to the list. HCMH was the only critical access hospital to be mentioned. Other hospitals on the list are located in Iowa City, Des Moines, Dubuque and Sioux City. “So it’s true. Big things can come in small packages,” said Ann Loges, HCMH’s quality director. “We are very honored. It is a huge attribute to the entire HCMH team’s dedication

and focus.” “This is great news for all those who seek heart care at Hancock County Memorial Hospital. I am extremely proud to work in an organization where the medical team comes in every day and performs at such a high level and provides quality care while also demonstrating compassion to our patients and families,” said Jeff Stampohar, CEO, HCMH.

Plan for holiday visits with older adults

By Barbara Dunn Swanson and Laura Sternweis, Iowa State University Extension and Outreach AMES, Iowa - A visit from family and friends during the holidays can make life better for older adults in care facilities. Barbara Dunn Swanson, a human sciences specialist with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, suggests planning ahead to make the most of these visits. Swanson, who specializes in family life issues, offers tips for safe and healthy visits with older friends and relatives. Start by planning ahead. “As you begin to plan your visit, call the facility and check the visiting hours before you contact your older friend or relative,” Swanson said. “That way you will ensure that you’ll have enough time to visit with your loved one without interfering with medical treatments or other activities. This also gives your loved one time to anticipate and look forward to your visit. “If you are planning to visit someone in specialized care, call ahead to make sure you understand visiting hours and regulations. They may differ from those in the rest of the facility,” Swanson added. Bring children. “Children add a special kind of cheer to care centers and hospitals, so certainly bring them along. But check with the facility first to make sure children are

allowed and under what conditions,” Swanson said. Prepare children for the visit by explaining what they might see and answering their questions. Encourage them to bring a favorite toy or book. Older loved ones may enjoy the experience of watching young children play, Swanson said. Share the gift of fellowship. “Your visit is the best gift you can give someone in a care facility. During your time together, you can tell your loved one stories, read a humorous book aloud or share photographs of past holidays,” Swanson said. Remember to sit close. Offer a hug

or to hold hands. Touch has a tremendous impact on the physical and emotional need to feel connected to others. “Pay attention and take cues from the person you’re visiting about how long to stay. If you leave too early, you may not hear their concerns or the visit may be forgotten. If the visit is too long, your loved one may become tired,” Swanson said. Limit the number of people who are visiting at one time. Some individuals may become more confused or anxious with large numbers of visitors at the same time. “A visit to the care facility is a wonderful gift, but when possible, plan a day ‘out’ suited to your loved one’s interests, health and strength, and your ability to handle his or her needs. If the excursion is well planned, your loved one may be able to enjoy a day away,” Swanson said. She suggests that those who want to bring a gift for their loved one consider the following: a large, colorful calendar to help the person keep a sense of time; music the person would enjoy; personal toiletries, tissues or a decorative tissue holder; books or magazines in large print; flowers or a new plant; stamps and cards with pre-addressed envelopes; a gift certificate to the hair salon; specialized clothing, or socks or slippers with non-skid surfaces; a large-face or talking clock; a puzzle; or craft sup-

plies. The care facility staff may have suggestions on gifts as well. Always check with staff before bringing food. If it’s okay to bring food, choose appropriate and health conscious snacks. Stay home if not feeling well. Care center residents and hospital patients can be at higher risk for infection. If children are sick or not feeling well, don’t bring them along for the visit. “Likewise, if you have a cold or the flu, stay home,” Swanson said. “ In these instances, a phone call is a better way to let your loved one know you care. If possible, you can set up a later time to visit when you are well.”

Cardinals receive all-district football honors Football coaches from Class 2A District Two have released their all-district selections to recognize the district’s top players. GHV was well represented on the all-district lists with seven Cardinals being named to the first team roster. Five additional players were listed as Honorable Mention selections while 11 GHV athletes were named to the Academic All-District roster. Three GHV seniors completed their careers with first-team all-district recognition. Grady Umbarger and Chase Theobald earned their spots with outstanding defensive play while Conner Shaw repeated as a first team running back. Joining the three seniors were juniors Dane

Whipple, Jack Van Dusseldorp, Nick Joynt and Connor Burke. Umbarger and Theobald led a very successful Cardinal defensive unit. Grady was credited with nine tackles-for-loss while finishing the season with 24 solo tackles and 43.5 total tackles. Theobald recorded 32 solo tackles, 41 total tackles and a pass interception. Meanwhile Shaw was GHV’s rushing leader, finishing the season with 996 yards for an average of 4.9 yards per carry. Maybe some of the hardest working but least recognized players on a football team are the guys in the trenches playing on the line. Whipple and Van Dusseldorp did gain the attention of opposing coaches with

GHV Volleyball Top of Iowa Conference-West all Conference. L-R Carlie Knutson (Honorable Mention), Bailee Frayne (2nd Team), Mackenzie VanGerpen (1st Team), Hannah Lau (1st Team).

Four Cardinals earn TIC honors Three GHV seniors along with a junior received post-season recognition after being named to the Top of Iowa Conference West Division volleyball elite teams. The Cardinals finished with a conference record of 5 – 3 to finish third overall in the league standings, a significant improvement over last season’s 2 – 6 mark. Lake Mills and Forest City were the TIC champion and runner-up. GHV’s one-two punch of seniors Mackenzie Van Gerpen and Hannah Lau were both named to the TIC West First team roster. Van Gerpen, an outside hitter for the Cards, completed the conference season with impressive numbers both at the net and defensively that resulted in her being a unanimous selection. Mackenzie tallied 77 kills, 73 digs and 15 ace serves in league play. As a middle hitter, Lau was also a force at the net, scoring 84 kills with 55 digs and 10 ace serves. Cardinal coach Kelsey Steffens noted that Van Gerpen obviously impressed opposing coaches as evidenced by her unanimous selection. “Mackenzie is a talented all-around volleyball player that is able to play many different positions extremely well. Although Mackenzie is an outside hitter, to best help our team, she played one rotation as a middle hitter and in the back row played all three rotations as middle back. Her ability to mix up her skill set helped contribute to our team’s success. In the Top of Iowa West Conference Mackenzie finished top ten in kill efficiency, kills, digs, and ace serves. Mackenzie will finish her high school career with 737 kills (third in GHV history), a kill efficiency per set of 2.62 (fourth in GHV history), a kill efficiency of 0.204 (eighth in GHV history), and 544 digs (fourth in GHV history). Steffens was also pleased to sum-

marize Lau’s accomplishments. “As an all-around middle hitter and four-year letter winner Hannah brought tremendous experience to the team. Her presence in the front row was well-noted as she was successful both on offense and defense. Hannah was able to run and execute a complex offense. In the Top of Iowa West Conference Hannah finished ninth in kill efficiency and second in kills. Hannah is our new record holder in career kills at GHV, with a total of 902 (Emily Mathews had 749 kills). She will also finish her career with 2.96 kills per set (second in GHV history), 0.258 in kill efficiency (fifth in GHV history), and 178 blocks (seventh in GHV history). Junior setter Bailee Frayne was named to the TIC West second team list. As the team’s primary setter Bailee was credited with 143 assists in conference play with 29 digs and 13 ace serves. “Bailee’s work ethic was evident this year as she did a nice job of getting the ball to our hitters,” noted Steffens. “In the Top of Iowa West Conference, Bailee finished fourth in assists with 143 and tied for eighth in ace serves with thirteen. Along with Bailee’s offense, she offered up a strong block for opposing teams’ outside hitters.” GHV’s fourth player earning post-season honors was senior outside hitter Carlie Knutson. Carlie, listed as an Honorable Mention performer, was a versatile member of the Cardinal squad. Knutson recorded 37 kills, seven ace serves and 63 digs in league games. “Carlie was a valuable member of the team this year,” remarked Coach Steffens. “Her energy, positive attitude, and determination helped the team be successful this year. Both in practices and in competition, Carlie was a great team-

mate and because of that has earned the E. Wayne Cooley Award for the GHV team. The award goes to an athlete who shows the elements of good character (trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship).

West Hancock linebacker Glen Smith (65) pursues Algona Garrigan quarterback Brad Capesius in the first half of the Eagles Class A state quarterfinal game at Algona.

Two-minute drill falls short for Eagles chroniclekristi@gmail.com

ALGONA – Two minutes, 32 seconds showed on the clock and West Hancock needed to go 97 yards. The Eagles took to the air and reached the Algona Garrigan 20-yard line with a chance to reach the Class A state semifinal football round at stake. Three straight passes were incomplete in the end zone and a last gasp fourth down pass was picked off with only 12 seconds left as West Hancock fell 12-8 to its rival on Friday, Nov. 4 at Algona. “When you are on the losing side, you always second-guess yourself,� West Hancock coach Bob Sanger said. “Maybe we could have gone a little quicker with the pistol because they weren’t covering anything at all. “We got some things to happen, but toward the end there, they were covering us ... it’s just sour grapes as far as my part, but we were getting knocked around pretty good on some of those plays.� The two teams traded possessions a total of 10 times, including turnovers on interceptions and back-to-back fumbles before West Hancock put together a 15play drive that was capped by Colton Francis’ 10-yard touchdown run. Jordan Weiland ran in the twopoint conversion and the Eagles led 8-0 into the half as they scored with just 35 seconds left until the break. It looked like it was going to be more of the same in the second half as both teams traded possessions, but after Garrigan running back Gibson Behr appeared to be injured, halting play for a few minutes, he went off and then the Golden Bears took off. Garrigan quarterback Brad Capesius completed a 27-yard pass to Joel

Vaske and fullback Grant Buscherfeld rumbled for 18 more on the next play. Behr returned to the game, lost a yard on first-and-goal from the 7-yard line, but then gained three and Buscherfeld took the next two carries, including the score on fourth-and-goal from the 1. But West Hancock retained the 8-6 lead with the two-point pass by Capesius falling incomplete. The Eagles were forced to go 3-andout on their next possession and that is when Garrigan put together the goahead drive. Again, both teams traded possessions before Vaske’s punt rolled down to the three. That is when Dylan Eckels started throwing the ball and getting the Eagles downfield. One of the biggest pass plays was a 41-yarder to Ben Eisenman as well as a 15-yard completion to MaCoy Yeakel. Eckels even came through on fourth down-and-five with a five-yard completion to Eisenman, who went out of bounds to conserve the clock. But the next three attempts into the end zone missed the target and his final fourth down attempt was intercepted by Behr. “We were expecting to win, but we knew it was going to be a tough ball game, we knew it wasn’t going to be anything easy about it,� Sanger said. “We scored once in the first half and they scored twice in the second half. We should have been able to score at least once in the second half and we didn’t. That is the difference in the ball game. “That doesn’t make us any less proud of our kids. Our kids played so hard. They’ve done so well all year long and gone through a lot of obstacles. They wanted this one pretty bad and didn’t get it.� Francis finished with 194 yards on

24 carries and the touchdown. Eckels was 8-of-17 passing for 92 yards. Seven of his eight completions were on the final drive. “I’m very proud of our kids,� Sanger said. “I think our kids are probably... the least character person was me tonight. Some calls should have been made. The pass interference stuff, they were knocking us around pretty good when the ball was in the air. That is what was upsetting about it.� Sanger, who just completed his 49th season at the helm of the Eagles and has the field bearing his name, plans to be back for season 50 in 2017. West Hancock completes the season at 8-3. Algona Garrigan 12, West Hancock 8

Autumn Stargazing Program Scheduled

Late spring frost having impact on animals this fall By Adam Janke and Gabbi Edwards, Iowa State University Extension and Outreach AMES, Iowa – Brightly colored leaves, harvest and the busy labors of squirrels burying nuts for the long winter ahead are iconic images of fall in Iowa. This year, however, Iowans may notice fewer scurrying squirrels in their yards, thanks to a late spring frost that negatively impacted hard mast production in many areas throughout the state. “Hard mast is the botanical name for hard nuts produced by trees and shrubs such as acorns, walnuts, hickories and hazel nuts,” said Gabbi Edwards, urban forestry specialist with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. “Hard mast provides food for many familiar wildlife species seen in urban and rural environments throughout Iowa.” Birds including bluejays, ducks and wild turkeys, white-tailed deer, fox squirrels and many other creatures rely on hard mast from trees and shrubs to build up energy reserves for long winter days or fuel their migration to warmer climates. Iowa Department of Natural Resources foresters have noted widespread hard mast failure this year, making for lean times for some animals counting on this seasonal food source. Mast failure results from frosts when hardwood tree flowers emerge during April and May. In the absence of killing frosts, flowers formed in April and May produce the seed, or mast, that matures and drops from the tree in the fall. A late spring frost after flowers have emerged can damage or kill the flowers, resulting in fewer acorns or nuts being produced. Spring 2016 saw frosts around the state as late as May 18, later than normal and after many trees had already produced the flowers necessary for mast production. The map illustrates the last date this spring where a temperature below 32 degerees F was recorded at each of the Iowa Environmental Mesonet stations. However, local variation in frost severity could result in failures in areas other than what is shown. Not only has the late spring frost

affected mast production for this fall, but there will be the same decrease in mast next year in some trees, as well. Red oaks and other oaks within the red oak family like black oak and shingle oak, take 15 months for acorns to mature. This means the fall of 2017 will have decreased mast due to flowers that were lost in the spring of 2016. White oaks and walnuts produce and mature acorns and nuts within the same growing year. Failure of mast does not affect all trees in the same area. That depends on the severity of the frost, exposure to the sun or other factors affecting local microclimates, and whether an individual tree had flowered at the time of a late frost. Thus some trees on the same block may have different production patterns this year, but on average many trees have failed to produce mast. “Large-scale failures of mast crops can have negative impacts on some wildlife species that count on the seasonal food source,” said Adam Janke, assistant professor and extension wildlife specialist at Iowa State. “Studies in some northern states with near-complete failures have shown significant reductions in squirrel populations. However, such a widespread decline is unlikely in Iowa, given that mast failure did not affect all trees and many other food sources, such as waste grain in crop fields, are available for wildlife.” Motorists and homeowners may expect to see some animals, like deer and squirrels, moving longer distances this fall and winter in search of trees that were spared from the damaging frosts. Home or property owners can do little to abate the impacts of a late frost on annual mast production. However, the impacts of a late frost on some species is a reminder of the importance of planting or managing for a diversity of trees and shrubs in landscaping and in natural areas to hedge against environmental uncertainties. In this year, having species of red and white oaks in the yard would ensure the impacts of the late frost were spread over two years, safeguarding the sight of busy squirrels in the yard foreshadowing the coming winter days each November.

FOREST CITY - The Winnebago County Conservation Board will be holding an Autumn Stargazing program at Thorpe Park on Tuesday evening, November 29th. The program will be held at the entrance to the park beginning at 7 p.m., and will last 45-60 minutes. Thorpe Park is located five miles west of Forest City on “I”/345th Street. During the program, Winnebago County Naturalist Lisa Ralls will give an informal tour of the autumn nighttime sky. The summer triangle will be disappearing in the west, but the first of the winter constellations, such as Taurus the Bull and Auriga the Charioteer, will be rising in the east. Year-round constellations such as the Big and Little Dippers, and Cassiopeia, will also be visible.

People will learn how to identify these constellations, as well as some of the brighter autumn stars. Fascinating tidbits of information will also be shared about what people are seeing and star charts will be handed out afterwards to help people identify the stars and constellations once they return home. People can bring along a pair of binoculars, if they’d like, and can also bring along a lawn chair, as well. In case of clouds, the program will have to be canceled and that announcement will run on KIOW Radio (FM 107.3), as well as on the WCCB web site (www.winnebagoccb.com), the WCCB Facebook page, and the WCCB Twitter feed (@WinnebagoCCB). For more information about the Autumn Stargazing program, people can contact Lisa Ralls at 641-565-3390 or at lralls@winnebagoccb.com.

POLL from page 1 and friends to get out and vote.” At Garner-Hayfield-Ventura High School, 375 students participated in the straw poll. Voting took place Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 during their lunch hour. “The voting was not required, but strongly encouraged,” according to Gregory Hiemstra, social studies teacher. Social studies classes monitored the polling and counted ballots. In the race for president, GHV students favored the Republican ticket of Donald J. Trump/Mike Pence over the Democratic ticket Hillary Clinton/Tim Kaine by a vote of 237 to 91. The Libertarian ticket of Gary Johnson/Bill Weld received 20 votes from students. Other third party candidates also received a scattered number of votes. Incumbent Senator Charles Grassley (R) received the majority of votes over former Lt. Gov. Patty Judge (D). Grassley received 224 votes in the straw poll. Judge received 50. Third party candidates receiving votes in the straw poll were Charles Aldrich (18 votes), Jim Hennager (20 votes), and Michael Luick-Thrams (7 votes). Representative Steve King (R) also won among GHV high school students. King received 226 votes while 49 votes were cast in support of Kim Weaver (D). Hiemstra said the goal of the straw poll was for students to understand the importance of voting and that “it is their civic duty, right and privilege.” “Also to understand the different choices they have as voters and what it takes to be well informed by watching debates and preparing on their own,’ Hiemstra said. Hiemstra noted that most of the questions asked by students were about the candidate’s past, rather than their policies, which made it touchy to talk about at times. “We hear quite a bit of discussion throughout the school and some days more than others. We took time to discuss the presidential debates as they happened. Some of the discussion has calmed down since then.”

By Richard Jauron and Greg Wallace, Iowa State University Extension and Outreach What types of material can be placed in a compost pile? Suitable materials for the compost pile include garden debris, leaves, grass clippings, straw, sawdust, and small twigs and branches. You can also add food scraps from produce items, such as apple cores, potato and banana peels, and melon rinds. Coffee grounds and eggshells can also be placed in the compost pile. What types of material should not be placed in a compost pile? Don’t add meat scraps, bones, grease, whole eggs or dairy products to the compost pile because they decompose slowly, cause odors, and may attract rodents. Also, don’t add dog feces or spent cat liter to the compost pile. Dog feces and cat liter may contain harmful pathogens that may not be destroyed during the composting process. Can I put disease-infested plant material in the compost pile? Temperatures of 150 to 170 degrees Fahrenheit are required to kill most plant disease pathogens. Unfortunately, the internal temperatures of most home compost piles don’t reach this level and the disease organisms are not destroyed. For most home gardeners, it’s best to dispose of diseased plant materials at a public or private yard waste site.

compost pile contains excessive amounts of wet plant material (such as fruit or grass clippings), is kept too wet, or is not turned on a regular basis. When constructing the compost pile, mix wet plant material with dry plant debris. Keep the compost pile moist, but not wet. The composting materials should feel damp like a wrung-out sponge. Turn the compost pile at least once or twice a month. Odors are emitted by poorly prepared or maintained compost piles. How long does it take a compost pile to break down? The rate of decomposition depends upon the composition of the compost pile, level of management, and other factors. A well-managed compost pile (one that is watered and turned regularly) containing a mixture of plant materials should be ready in two to four months. A good compost pile contains a mixture of green material, such as grass clippings, and brown material like leaves and straw. The timing of compost pile construction is another important factor. Compost piles prepared in fall will not be ready until early summer of the following year. (Little decomposition occurs during the winter months.) Compost piles constructed in spring should be ready in late summer.

The premium, flavor-enhancing cooking wines are a go-to countertop ingredient and can be used to add a bold boost to any dish whether it’s around the holidays or just pasta for an any-night family dinner. These recipes from Guy Meikle, corporate chef for Mizkan America, Inc., show how easy it is to whip up a new twist on holiday leftovers with cooking wines.
