The Man Behind the Metal NIKKI DAVIS Editor Merril McElwain’s handywork may be more obvious than you’d think. Some of it, yes, is hidden in the confines of his own garage. Such as the “Can Opener” sculpture that won him first place in an art competition years ago. And the “Sails” sculpture in the McElwain yard – once bright blue and vibrant, but now weathered and worn back down to the metal. And Merril even hides a metal harp in the garage – one that’s incredibly detailed, but not complete. And probably won’t be. But he won’t sell it. His artwork shouldn’t dis-

credit his other handywork, though. Such as the garage full of tools he built himself to help him get his jobs done. And picnic tables, chairs, tables, home handrails and more. Merril retired in 1990 from Paxton Vierling Steal in Omaha, Neb., but was unable to give up his love for the craft. “He worked there for a long time,” his wife, Loie McElwain said. “He actually built the overpass bridge over by UNO while he was at Paxton. Every time we drive under it, he says, ‘I built that.’” And even after that retirement in 1990, the building didn’t end. And he began to

design. Some projects simple, some more complicated. “I built a lot of the handrails by the downtown businesses,” he said, as he walked down the street, pointing to Eby’s rail, Swain’s rail and Peachy’s. “And I think I built about four spiral staircases.” But he was to modest to admit he was the actual designer of those complicated staircases as well. Three of those staircases are believed to still be in existence in private residences in Woodbine. One was in the former Woodbine bakery on Walker Street, which was torn down. “It was such a shame,” Loie See MERRIL Page 6
Harrison County was among more than 20 counties in the state to use the Precinct Atlas for the school elections in September 2009 and will use the program again for the general election Nov. 2. “Precinct officials have all been trained and will be offered a refresher course prior to the election,” Harrison County Auditor Susan Bonham said. The program is an electronic poll book that helps precinct election officials effectively and consistently process voters on Election Day. The system is free to election officials in the state, though each county had to supply the laptop computers and label printers needed to run it. The system consists of a laptop computer with the “Precinct Atlas” software and an attached label printer. According to Bonham, the laptops are never connected to the Internet. Before each election, voter registration information is loaded into the program from the statewide voter registration and election management system. The electronic poll book allows precinct election officials to follow an on-screen step-bySee ATLAS Page 6 Motivated Seller

“A newspaper is a circulating library with high blood pressure.” ~Arthur Baer
CHAMBER CONNECTION MAIN STREET-CHAMBER OFFICE
On an adventure C
hange is usually an adventure! Things don’t always go “as planned”. . .but should that stop us from moving forward, working toward improvement, taking risks, formulating a vision or asking the hard questions. . .and then investing the time and energy to act on the answers? Absolutely not! Why, if we hadn’t done all of the above (i.e. “we” meaning Main Street volunteers, City of Woodbine employees and City Council members, Woodbine business owners, and concerned citizens), Woodbine would not have been a recipient of the numerous grants awarded in 2010. You probably know this already. . .but in order to procure grant funding, you must have a worthy plan. Before you have a PLAN, you must identify a PROJECT. In order to identify a project, you must have the courage to look the future in the eye and map out a VISION for change. Now you’re ready to write a grant. Spend hours upon hours pulling details together, researching, asking the experts, then edit, proof, spend hours upon hours pulling more details together, edit, proof, sign, cross your fingers and say a little prayer as you drop it in the mail! Sometimes you are rewarded for the hard work and a grant is awarded. Other times it’s “back to the drawing board.” Evidence of change is everywhere in the Woodbine Main Street district, much of it predicated on grant awards which leverage private investment and other funding sources. Governor Culver’s Main Street IJobs grants to Main Street communities and the IJobs funding for the fire station are examples of dollars going to established projects. The term “shovel ready” is used frequently for these projects…the term indicates people took risk and invested energy in the whole Vision/Project/Plan thing (see above) and it paid off. On Walker, the Whitmore building continues to change as decades of remodeling projects are peeled back exposing the grand old building. Exterior painting is underway now and workers are racing toward completion before winter interrupts construction. South on Walker, the eyebrow gas station is the recipient of interior and exterior treatments; the community meeting room in the garage bays is taking shape and new plumbing is nearly complete. The project should be complete before we start writing 2011 on our checks. Two older buildings used as city maintenance sheds are gone, and construction of a new Alegent Health Clinic begins on the 500 Block of Lincolnway. As winter comes and goes, you’ll see other changes to our downtown facades and grain elevator taking shape due to grant funding. . .thanks to the persistence, positive attitude, and courage of many leaders and concerned citizens to instigate change for the betterment of the Woodbine community. Bring on the adventure (change)!

ell now. That was quite entertaining, wasn’t it? There were about as many people lined up and down the streets watching it as there are when there’s a parade in town. Of course, it’s not every day you watch a 40 foot wide building travel down Lincoln Way (with 44 foot wide light poles) and Walker Street. Not to mention watching it hold up train traffic and then traffic on U.S. Highway 30. What a process! Marvin Kelley was kind enough to offer me a grand tour prior to the building ever leaving its spot on Lincoln way. It was hoisted, joisted and secured. I think there may have been more wood stabilizing that thing than there is my house? I don’t know. But the beams that supported it were rather intimidating looking items. And yet, I couldn’t help but thinking one of a thousand thoughts, despite the precautionary measures taken by Kelley and his crew. What happens if one of those gigantic beams breaks? What happens if it doesn’t fit? What happens if it slides off? What happens if the whole contraption falls over? What happens if someone gets ran over? What happens if the truck breaks down? What happens if a train hits it? What happens ….. I think you get the point. Regardless, the moving of the prior city’s storage building went off pretty much without a hitch. It was a long process, though. Started with hoisting the building up to moving it. I bet it took beyond a week or so. The moving itself was slow – but strangely moved faster than what I thought. As the mobile unit made its way down the street – every, “WHOA!” or “HOLD UP!” or ear splitting whistle sent chills down my spine. And I was left wondering, “What are these other people thinking?” as I

watched them equipped with cell phone cameras, digitals and video cameras. “Are they as nervous as I am?” Nervous. Pssshhht. Like I had to be nervous. I mean, after all, I wasn’t the one moving the oddity down the street. I guess I was nervous for those that were. Those that were intertwined with anything that may go right or may go wrong. My heart really stopped as the building measured up to the lines on Fifth Street. I swallowed my own tongue as I watched Chris climb onto the roof and pull those lines up with his hands. “Wow,” I kept thinking. “He must have drawn the short straw this morning.” Yet, it’s done. It was done. Finished. Complete. And it didn’t fall and no one was run over. No light poles were knocked down or street signs. What a whole lot of work. And I hope Marvin doesn’t mind me sharing, but one comment he said I think explains it all. As I watched him preparing to move the wide load from the city and over the bridge (as the side railing went under the garage door), I heard him make one comment. I thought it summed things up pretty well. “This might be the shortest career I’ve ever had,” Marvin said. “I don’t think I want to do this again.” Yup. Don’t blame you, Marvin.
The gift of a childhood friend EXTENSION OFFICE P leasant fall days bring me fond memories of Rosie McGivern. A few years ago at a training session I attended, we were asked to share who it was who first gave us an interest in plants and growing things, and for me it was Rosie. She was the live-in great aunt of neighborhood friends when I was growing up and had a kind demeanor, and was liked by all the kids. But I remember the long row of 4-o’clocks that she grew each year along the driveway, and one fall she set me gathering seed for next year’s planting all the while explaining the cycle of life (actually it may have been mostly a way to occupy a curious and active 6year-old for a while, but just the same…). But for me to this day, it is now “Rosie” season. I credit her with helping me see the happiness and challenges of helping things grow. People today can still emulate my mentor by saving a bit of seed or overwintering a few plants. Many flowers and other ornamentals have been bred up by breeders, with some incapable of bearing fertile seed. Even those that do bear seed will produce plants with different traits than the parent. But there still remain old “open pollinated” types that set viable seed and can be saved overwinter. There is
something about providing nature with an assist to conquer the cold of winter that can be fulfilling. If you have never overwintered seeds, here are a few good bets for success: 4-o’clocks, (of course). The plants are about 2-3 feet tall, and fill the summer with various brightly colored flowers. Each flower produces a seed that is black when mature, and can be easily picked from the annual plants. Easy to find, painless to pick, and generally pretty successful growing the coming year. Moss rose (portulaca). This is an annual, low growing succulent that is great in beds where a carpet of red, pink, white, and yellow showy flowers is desired. The seeds are formed in capsules that dehisce (come apart) like a candy dish lid. Each capsule contains many tiny black seeds. Snapdragons. Another popular annual that develops seed pods along the stem, containing dry brown seeds at maturity. Harvest the seed when the pods are just starting to open on their own, but remember the pods ripen sequentially, so there are likely some ready now. While I am talking, some adventurous folks may want to try looking for perennial plant seed and experimenting with

that. Last week I noticed that the peonies outside of my house had managed to set seed. The pods are at the top where the flowers were and are now brown to black and in three parts. Within a few of these pods were some round buckshot sized seeds that I have harvested and will start in the late winter indoors. I have a place that I can play with plantings outside, and I plan on trying to start peonies from seed out there. Another fun one that I know works is cannas. Cannas are very showy, tall flowers that grow from underground stems called rhizomes. They are native to the tropics, so the rhizomes must be dug for overwintering (by the way, I am told that cannas are quite edible, like potatoes, but I have not had them to try them as a food source). The canna seed is ¼ inch diameter round balls, and before they germinate; it is best to file a notch in the seed coat to allow water to enter. I have germinated cannas, and they grew quite easily. But remember, what you get from them
might be quite different in foliage and flower than the parents, depending on the genes that matched up at pollination. Again, if you have some extra room, it might be fun to try. My final thought is that there is an organization to preserve many old-fashioned varieties that our grandparents and before enjoyed called the Seed Savers Exchange. They are based in Decorah, Iowa and have been in existence since 1975. If for nothing else but fun on a cold winter day, go to the Seed Savers Exchange site at www.seedsavers.org and look at the catalog of “heirloom” varieties of plants. As an example, a friend of mine grows several tomato varieties each year, and the diversity of flavors is stunning compared with commercial tomatoes available today. So think of my old friend Rosie and save some seed (or get an heirloom variety) for fun this fall.

DEAR EDITOR: October is Breast Cancer Awareness month; thus the importance of this article. At the end of this month, I will complete a year of treatment for breast cancer. I can’t stress enough the importance of getting a mammogram and doing monthly breast examinations. In May 2009 I had a digital mammogram that reflected calcification in one of my breasts and four
months later I found I had a malignant tumor that had grown to 2.2 centimeters. In the days and weeks to follow I went through a barrage of tests, a biopsy and ultimately a lumpectomy. In November I began a treatment protocol that would involve chemotherapy, radiation and a weekly infusion that would aggressively attack the fast growing breast cancer that I had. I have been able to take all my chemo and weekly infusions of Herceptin at
Community Memorial. I am so very grateful for the wonderful hospital staff and doctors at Community Memorial and for the extraordinary care, concern, and friendship they have extended to me in so many ways. To all of you at the Hospital, to the area churches, to my family and other friends, thank you from the bottom of my heart for praying, supporting, loving and encouraging my family. God met our needs and strength-
ened us through all of you; for that we are most grateful. Please – don’t put off a mammogram; it can save your life! Early detection really is the best prevention. Community Memorial has recently obtained a digital mammography machine – take advantage of it and the professional staff to take care of your healthcare needs. PAM JOHNSON, MISSOURI VALLEY

Hangover. The former city building was transportTight turn. It took a few tries for the former city building to round the corners - first, pictured here, on the ed over the Boyer Valley River bridge using the corner of Lincoln Way and Fifth Streets. Photo: Daryn Morriss garage door for clearance. Photo: Nikki Davis NIKKI DAVIS Editor The metal Quonset hut looked strange traveling through the downtown business district on Walker Street to reach its destination just over the train tracks the morning of Oct. 6. However, it wasn’t this hut’s first time on the move. The building originally served as the former
county shed and was located at the end of 11th and Park Streets prior to being moved to it’s ‘recent former’ location on Sixth Street and Lincoln Way and used as a storage space for the City of Woodbine. Most recently, Marvin and Greg Kelley and a crew of workers spent about a week of prep time, carefully placing supports underneath the
building to secure it before it took a short ride through town. The short ride, including a short stint down Lincoln Way, which is 44 feet wide for the 40 feet building, onto Fifth Street (removing the stop sign leading to Walker Street and having to have the overhead lines lifted by hand and carried down the roof of the building as it moved), and down
Walker Street took approximately an hour. However, the building didn’t reach its final destination as the Kelley’s and their crew awaited a permit from the Iowa Department of Transportation in order to cross the bridge on U.S. Highway 30 before the building comes to its third home at the junction of U.S. 30 and Highway F-32 (Airport
Road). The event wrapped up on Oct. 7 as the trains were brought to a halt and traffic temporarily stopped on U.S. Highway 30 as the building made its way over the bridge – the opening of the garage door serving as the passage way over one guardrail of the Boyer Valley River bridge to reach it’s destination. The hole left on
Lincoln Way where the building once stood will be widened as the brick building next to it (known as the Hickey building) was also removed, leaving a space from Brick Street Station to Farmers Trust and Savings Bank. The space will be filled with a new Alegent Health Clinic, slated to be complete sometime in the middle of March.
Meeting The Man Behind the Metal Using From MERRIL Page 1 said. “He had a lot of time and work invested into that staircase.” Merril’s handywork may also be seen in the Woodbine Cemetery. Yes. The cemetery. “I made the hearts,” he said. “He made the original ones in the cemetery,” Loie proudly added. “His were the first ones out there – and now you can see them about everywhere in people’s yards, holding plants. He was the instigator of the heart deal and there are a lot of those around town now.” His pride and joy might be one Woodbine residents frequently drive by. The gates of the current Bank of the West. The large, heavy, hinged gates. “First National Bank asked me if I’d build them after I retired,” he said. And he took on that challenge. The proof is still standing, holding strong and true on the corner of Fifth and Walker Streets, the bank now the current Bank of the West. “The measuring was the worst of that deal,” Merril said. “It was difficult to measure between the bricks and get everything cut correctly.” He smiled as he looked at the gates. “And usually the hinges are the first to go,” he said, as he reached to touch them. “But they look pretty good.” And he is still getting requests to build various items. “But he just can’t do it,” his wife said, alluding to his ailing health and agility. “His hands shake and it’s more difficult now. So – he’s retired. Again.” So Merril McElwain’s legacies live on in metal structures from downtown Woodbine to the Woodbine Cemetery and beyond. Some in homes, some on public display. Some obvious, with others more obscure. Now, he just gets to be Merril. He reads often and enjoys sitting on the swing on the west side of his home, taking car rides and watching a little television. “I don’t keep very busy now,” he admitted. “I’m retired again.” His ‘Can Opener’ as the McElwains refer to it, is now a little worn with weathBut the visible gateway to his creative side proves er, but once won him a first place standing at an art competition. he wasn’t always retired.

Bonham praised the system and workers. “Harrison County precinct election officials do a suburb job of conducting the elections,” she said. “Using the Precinct Atlas program only enhances the precinct election official’s ability to make sure that all necessary documentation is properly prepared.

Making the 4-H Commitment For some Iowans, 4-H is the reason for the career path they chose or the skills they gained. For others, it’s all about the lifelong friendships formed while camping at the Iowa 4-H Center, planting a community garden or learning how to make everything from clothes to snacks to robots. Everyone has a 4-H story. The Iowa 4-H Foundation is gathering those stories through the “My 4-H. My Commitment.” campaign, according to marketing director Shelly Greving. “We want to know individuals’ 4-H stories so we can collectively share how 4-H has made the best better for all Iowans,” Greving said. Iowans can
tell their stories in words or pictures, in print, video or audio. The Iowa 4-H Foundation is collecting the stories to share on 4-H Web sites, blogs and social networks, and in other communications with current and potential 4-H supporters. Iowans already are sharing their stories of “My 4-H.” “My 4-H is watching the kids learn life skills they can carry with them,” Winneshiek County 4-H leader
Michelle Schwarthoff said. “I really enjoy watching the kids’ faces when they have achieved their goals.” “4-H has provided a great foundation for my son to gain confidence and leadership skills, as well as life skills,” Roxanne Bappe, a Story County 4-H parent, said. “His favorite part of 4-H is his involvement in shooting sports. Fortunately, it provided an opportunity for my husband to become involved as well.

He is now a 4-H shooting sports instructor, which also provides my son with a time to bond with his dad.” Patti Vander Hart is a 4H leader in Marion and Dallas counties. For her, 4H means “watching the members grow through good times as well as tough situations. 4-H truly teaches them life skills they use now and when they become adults.” “I was part of county, area and state council, and I met so many people that have altered or changed my life in a positive way. I will be sure to put my kids through 4-H because of all the life lessons and the incredible networking options that 4-H has to offer. It will always hold a special place in my heart,” Kyle Gouldenpfennig, a 4H alum from Louisa County said. “Past and present Iowa 4-H’ers know the value of their own 4-H experience and the positive impact 4H has had on their families and communities,” marketing director Shelly Greving said. “However there are thousands of Iowa youth in urban neighborhoods and rural communities who don’t yet know about 4-H. We want to spread the word to launch new 4-H clubs, train more volunteers, develop more programs and give more Iowa youth the opportunity to experience the benefits of 4-H.” Iowans can add their stories to My 4-H. My Commitment by sharing their video at www.youtube.com/iowa 4h or writing their story and submitting it to iowa4h@iastate.edu. Or, on social networking sites include @iowa4h in your post. About the Iowa 4-H Youth Development Program 4-H is the nation’s largest youth development organization, serving more than 6 million young people across America with programs in leadership, citizenship, communication and life skills.

Community Volleyball team tallies two wins the week of Oct. 4 Oct. 5 Charter Oak-Ute, 3: Woodbine, 0 The Lady Tigers faced off at home with the Charter Oak-Ute Bobcats Oct. 5. The home court advantage didn’t work in the Lady Tigers favor, losing the match in three games. Despite the three game loss, the scores were tight. The first game knocked Woodbine down as the Bobcats took Woodbine out 25-16. Not liking that finish, the Lady Tigers pushed back, see-sawing their way through the second game. The push back proved not enough though, as the team fell 25-19 in game two. The Lady Tigers tried to claw their way on top in game three, but fell short 25-18. Leading the way for the team in attacks was Samijo Klaahsen with 23 and led in attacks with 10. Cydnee Meeker set her own pace with 20 attacks and five kills of her own. Taylor Barry also handled herself wall on the court with 18 attacks and five kills. Kaitlin Pulscher and Shelby Vandemark led in digs, each with four, Barry following with three. Lydia Payne, Bailey Meyer and Tiffany Vasquez followed with two digs each. Meeker doled out the team high of four blocks on the night. Vandemark managed a team high of five aces with Klaahsen adding one. Oct. 5 IKM-Manning, 3: Woodbine, 0 The Lady Tigers traveled to IKM-Manning for a game Oct. 7 that eerily resembled Tuesday’s match. The Lady Tigers were defeated in the first game, 25-17, followed by a 25-15 game. A small push led the team to a more points in the final game, but not enough for the win as they fell 25-16. Samijo Klaahsen led the team again in attacks with 19 and finished second in kills with seven. Taylor Barry led in kills with nine. Kaitlin Pulscher and Justina Royer followed in attacks with 14 each. Royer also doled out seven digs at the game, followed by Shelby Vandemark with five and Klaahsen and Tiffany Vasquez with four each. Vasquez led in assists with seven. Blocks for the team were low, with only three delivered by Cydnee Meeker as the team’s high and one by Royer. Klaahsen delivered the most aces for the Lady Tigers during the match with four, and Pulscher added two of her own. Oct. 9 Walnut Tournament Fremont Mills, 2: Woodbine, 0 The Lady Tigers found themselves in Walnut Oct. 9 for the Walnut Invitational. The team’s first match was against a tough Fremont Mills team, with the Lady Tigers falling in two games. The first game proved exciting as a see-saw match left the girls vying for the win, pushing the score over 21. Fremont Mills overpowered the black and gold and wound up with the two-point win, 23-21. Out of steam and tired, the Lady Tigers only managed to put seven points on the scoreboard, leave Fremont Mills with an easy 21-7 win. Samijo Klaahsen and Justina Royer led in attacks with 10, followed by Cydnee Meeker with eight. Klaahse, Meeker and Royer also led in kills with four, three and two, respectively. Five assists were tallied by Pulscher, three by Tiffany Vasquez. Shelby Vandemark led in digs with seven, followed by See VOLLEY Page 10

Several 3A and 4A teams were on the scene as well as some state rated 1A and 2A teams. All and all, both the girls’ and boys’ teams finished 16 during the evening’s events. Shelby Hall ran a great race, finishing 15th for the Lady Tigers. She was followed by Ellen Cox in 80th; Paige Hackman, 82nd; Shelby Dick, 84th; Alyssa Blum, 96th; and Clair Probasco, 110th out of a pool of 140 runners. “The girls’ team was without some of their runners due to illness and injury,” head coach Rod Smith pointed out. Levi Brown was the first of the black and gold boys across the finish line in 32nd; Ethan Lenz on his heels in 40th; then Jameson Delaney, 104th; Trevor Barnum, 119th; and Davis Hackman 132nd out of 159 runners.

When Investing, Don’t Stop at U.S. Border In less than two weeks, United Nations Day will be celebrated. It’s an occasion to highlight and reflect on the work of the United Nations, whose mission is to promote understanding and cooperation among the world’s countries. Of course, in an era of instantaneous communications and speedy global travel, we are all connected much more closely than ever before. And that’s certainly true in the financial markets, too, because as an investor, you’ve got a world full of opportunities. Many people, however, still think the U.S. totally dominates the investment scene. But the fact is that U.S. stock markets make up less than half of the total global stock market value, according to the Census Bureau. And that should come as no surprise to you when you consider many of the products you use on a daily basis, from the Hyundai (South Korea) you drove to work to the Nestle Crunch bar (parent company in Switzerland) you snacked on at lunch to the Sony television (Japan) you watch at night. Not only are many strong companies based in the developed countries, but some emerging markets — countries such as China, India, Brazil and Mexico that are characterized by l t
risks different from those of more developed countries. Securities may be less liquid and more volatile because economic structures are generally less diverse and mature. And by investing internationally, you can gain another key benefit — improved diversification. If you only invested domestically, and a downturn hits us, your portfolio will likely take a hit. But, at any given time, international markets may perform quite differently than the U.S. market. Consequently, if you expanded your investment horizon beyond U.S. borders, your foreign investments could be doing relatively well, even if your American investments were lagging. Keep in mind, though, that diversification, by itself, cannot guarantee profits or protect against loss, though it may be able to help reduce the effects of volatility. While you can gain some benefits by investing internationally, you’ll also need to consider the risks, such as political risk. For example, new governments can come in, nationalize companies, drastically change policies or rules affecting commerce, or take other actions th t ld h bi ff t

tively affect the value of your investments. Another factor to consider is the difference in accounting standards between the U.S. and other countries, a difference that can result in difficulty analyzing the true value and performance of foreign investments. You can enhance your portfolio's diversification without investing a lot abroad. If you are considering international investments you may want to limit the foreign exposure to no more than 20 to 25 percent of your overall portfolio, with the exact amount depending on your individual risk tolerance, time horizon and long-term goals. Also, given the more complex issues involved in international investing, you’ll want to consult with a professional financial advisor before taking action. But once you’ve done your “due diligence,” don’t be afraid to launch your voyage to the world of international investing. Y i ht lik h t

Sports Tigers notch big win at Ar-We-Va Oct. 8 three and out, the Tigers struck with a 30-yard touchdown pass to Gavvon Shafer. Then after Cory Caddell recovered a fumble inside the 10, Kyle Kuhlman ran the ball in from four yards out on the second play. The two point conversion was good on a Zach Archer run. What would prove to be the only let up of the defense in the first half, the Rockets struck back with a 58-yard touchdown pass. The quarter would end with the first punt by the Tigers and then a Mason Mentink interception. The score, 14-6 Tigers. The second quarter the Tigers kept the pressure on the Rockets. After a long run by the Tiger quarterback to the 5-yard line, Archer ran the ball in on the next play. The Rockets then put together a long drive only to see the Tigers defense get the ball back as the Rockets failed on a fourth down. After a rare three and out, the Tigers punted out of their own end zone giving the Rockets good field position. Two plays later Sam Powers intercepted a pass inside the 10 to halt a Rocket scoring opportunity. The Tigers then went on a 10 play drive, highlighted by a long pass completion to Archer and capped by a 1-yard run by Mentink. The half wound up with a Tiger defensive stop, a Rocket interception and a fumble recovery by Mentink on the last play, with the Tigers leading 266. The third quarter didn’t see a change in the
JEFF POWERS For The Twiner The Tigers went on the road to Westside Oct. 8 and picked up a nice win to keep their sub-state playoff hopes alive. This week the Tigers played a strong first half, offensively and defensively, to help secure the win. The second half saw the Tigers buried in bad field position till midway through the fourth quarter. After letting the Rockets back into game, the Tigers put together a long, sustained drive for a touchdown to seal the game. The game saw numerous yellow flags thrown on both sides, a Rocket official told to leave and an ambulance called for a Rocket player. This game snapped a five game streak of using the continuous clock. Though a long game, the Tigers proved to be more physically ready to earn the win. “The key for us was our ability to execute our game plan. Coming into the game we wanted to run the football well and sustain some long drives to keep the ball out of the Ar-We-Va offense hands. We were able to do that especially in the first half. We were much more physical on offense as well,” Head Coach Jason Strong said after the game. The Tigers, after returning the opening kickoff to about mid-field, drove the ball inside the 10 only to throw an interception in the corner of the end zone. That didn’t deter the Tigers. Right after a quick
score. Woodbine’s first three possessions all started deep in their own territory managing only one first down and three punts. The Rockets first three possessions ended in two punts and another interception by Powers. On the Rockets fourth possession they put together an 11 play drive only to see the Tiger defense make a stop on fourth down as the game moved into the fourth quarter. Unlike the third quarter, the fourth quarter was more exciting and nerve racking for the Tigers. After a quick three and out for the Tigers, the Rockets quickly scored on a five play drive and successfully converted the two point conversion. Then after a fumble by the Tigers and a Rocket recovery, the Rockets had good field position. After three plays, the Rockets scored on a 30-yard touchdown pass, making it a one possession game with the score now 26-20. Then the Tigers got down to business. After an on side kickoff attempt by the Rockets and a nice recovery by Spencer Ball, the Tigers finally had good field position and they didn’t disappoint the Tiger faithful. They went on a nine play drive with three first downs highlighted by a long pass to Josh Matusik and some hard running by Shafer. After taking valuable time off the clock, Shafer ran the ball in from the 1-yard line followed by successful two point conversion run by Powers. That gave the

The defense would make a stop and the offense held the ball till time ran out giving the Tigers a 34-20 victory. “I was impressed with our defensive effort against Ar-We-Va. Our defense played our best game of the season. They played with aggression and that improved aggression lead to several key stops and turnovers. We will need to continue this style of play for the rest of the season,” Strong said, pleased with the outcome. Kuhlman and Archer ran for a combined 154 yards and a touchdown apiece while Powers was 7 for 14 for 147 yards and
a touchdown and 2 picks as the coaches switched to a pro-style offense that moved Archer to halfback and Powers to quarterback. Defensively Matusik lead the team with 8 tackles followed by Austin Quick with 7. Next week Woodbine will renew a long standing rivalry with Boyer Valley as the Tigers will host their final home game of the year. This game most likely will determine the final sub-state position for district 7. “Our win against ArWe-Va put us in a position to play for a playoff berth. Boyer Valley is a good team with great size and good athletes in the back-
field. We will need to sustain the same offensive efficiency we showed last week for four quarters, and on defense we have found something that believe works well for our team. The winner of this game will be in the driver’s seat for the final playoff berth in the district, so this is a big game not only from a rivalry standpoint but also for the post season. I hope to see all of Woodbine come down to support us on Friday night as we try to make it three straight trips to the state playoffs,” Strong said. The game will start at 7 p.m. and will double as Parent’s Night.
Volleyball team tallies two wins the week of Oct. 4 From VOLLEY Page 8 Royer and Klaahsen with six and five, respectively.

Klaahsen, Pulscher, Royer and Barry with one each. Woodbine, 2: East Greene, 0 Tired of their losing streak, the Lady Tigers gave their all against East Greene for their third match of the tournament.

against Essex their final match of the day. The black and gold made short work of Essex in the first game, taking them down 21-15. Essex didn’t like the score and fought back hard in the second game, pushing the Lady Tigers down 21-17. A tie breaker match pushed both teams to fight for the title of match champ. The Lady Tigers weren’t going to have it, and took Essex down, putting up 15 points and
leaving Essex with a mere four. Although the scores looked good, the stats were low. Royer led in attacks and kills, going 15 and six. She was followed by Klaahsen with nine and five. Vasques led in assists with eight and Pulscher had the team’s remaining assists with seven. Digs were scoped by Barry and Vandemark with eight each and followed by Klaahsen and Vasquez with three each.
Royer had the team’s only two blocks of the night. Vandemark had an impressive four aces during the game, with Klaahsen and Barry each adding one of their own. The Tigers face off with Ar-We-Va on Oct. 12 at Westside and will celebrate Parent’s Night Oct. 14 during a home game against the West Harrison Hawkeyes. The regional tourney will follow on Oct. 18.

Nutrition online conference Oct. 18 Local food, sustainable food and traditional food systems: Where does food come from and does it matter? This question is the focus for Current Issues in Nutrition, a two-part online conference beginning Oct. 18 from Iowa State University Extension. Media and government attention to local, sustainable and traditional food systems has prompted discussions among policy makers, environmentalists and healthcare providers, said Sarah L. Francis, an ISU Extension nutrition specialist and assistant professor in Iowa State’s Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition. Discussions often center on perceived benefits and risks related to health, economics and environment and how these systems might work together. “This conference will focus on the social and economic perspectives of what really are three complementary food systems,” Francis said. The conference starts with archived presentations registered participants can view online at any time beginning Oct. 18. The conference concludes with a live Webcast question and answer session Nov. 18, from 12-1:30 p.m. CST. Register online at www.cepd.iastate.edu/cin. The registration fee is $35 per person. Registered participants will be emailed instructions for viewing the online presentations and participating
in the live question and answer session. Francis said the conference will be of particular interest to registered dietitians, nutritionists, family consumer science educators, certified dietary managers, community supported agriculture operators and members and vocational agriculture educators. Featured speakers for the conference are Alison Harmon and John Lawrence. Harmon is an associate professor in the Department of Health and Human Development at Montana State University. Lawrence is the director of ISU Extension to Agriculture and Natural Resources and associate dean for extension programs and outreach in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Harmon’s presentation will cover food choices for health and sustainability. Harmon will define and explain the components of food systems and explore the implications of food systems and food choices for health and sustainability. She also will discuss community food security and community supported agriculture. Lawrence will discuss the economics of complementary food systems, including the contradiction between global and local food demand and systems to address the demand. He also will discuss the role of technology in the cost of food systems and different measures of sustainability.

Decrease in disease activity is likely. Improved stress tolerance. Increased rhizome-tiller development. Deeper, stronger roots. Extends the greening of the turf later into the fall and winter. Spring green-up will normally occur earlier. Provides root development until the ground freezes.
