By Dave Pearce Timothy Alexander Lear was sentenced in Posey Superior Court on Friday to 60 years for the Valentine’s Day murder of his 4-monthold son.

“The judge looked at his criminal history…his background, the nature of the offense and the youth of the victim” Posey County Prosecutor Travis Clowers said of the sentence. “And the grandmother (Sandy Thompson) of the victim read a letter to the court during the sentencing hearing.”

It took a jury only about an hour in July to find Timothy Alexander “Alex” Lear, 25, guilty of murdering his 4-month-old son, Bryson James Clardy, in February of 2011.

Lear was also found guilty of the charge of neglect of a dependent

resulting in death and battery on a child resulting in death, both Class A felonies.

With good time credit, Lear could conceivably be released in half that time but Clowers said good time credit is not automatic.

“He is eligible for good time credit but good time is figured by the Indiana Department of Corrections so to say he will receive good time credit isn’t a certainty. He may get it and he may not,” Clowers concluded.

According to testimony at the trial, 13 separate injuries were documented on the infant, including brain damage and bruises that medical experts had testified were from somebody holding and squeezing the baby tightly, as well as a bruise on his forehead, a fist-sized bruise

By Pam Robinson This past Sunday, long-time Griffin resident Judy (Sharp) Christmas celebrated her retirement after 38 years in the Metropolitan School District of North Posey. Everyone knows, however, the party isn’t really over. The 1967 North Posey graduate punched the time clock for the last time as a full-time custodian at the junior high on Monday, August 13, and on Thursday, August 16, she marched back there as a classroom sub.

Actually, Christmas has taught as a substitute teacher almost as long as she has served as second shift custodian—for the past 12 years of her 15-year custodial career.

She has thought nothing of working from dawn to dark, 7:30 a.m. to 11 p.m., just so she could continue to interact with the kids she loves.

Last year alone, she subbed 70 out of 180 school days.

Before she signed on as custodian, Christmas ran a school bus for 23 years—the last three of those

A jury of seven women and five men served in the trial where jury selection began on Monday of this week in Posey Circuit Court.

“The maximum sentence that Lear could have received for this offense was 65 years and he received 60 years,” Clowers said.

“Nothing is going to bring Bryson back but it is very comforting to know that a very dangerous person is not going to be in our community for a very long time.”

Posey Council looks for ways to stop paying rent for NH ambulance

By Valerie Werkmeister Members of the Posey County Council wonder if they may be able to stop paying rent for its ambulances to be housed within the New Harmony Fire Department. The topic is not something new that the council has debated. When the issue of adding a fourth ambulance to assist coverage throughout the entire county came up, the communities of Poseyville and Marrs Township agreed to waive ambulance housing rental fees.

The situation differs in New Harmony since both the council and Posey County Commissioners signed approval for a grant to help fund the construction of a new fire department in New Harmony.

Council president Bob Gentil advised that the grant was signed in 2010. The grant was funded based on the fact that the council pays a monthly rental fee of $360 to the department. In order for New Harmony to stay within compliance of their grant funding requirements, the monthly payments must continue.

Councilman Tom Schneider questioned whether there was a review or evaluation time for the grant in which the council might be able to withdraw their agreement to pay the monthly rental fees.

Attorney Beth McFadin-Higgins stated the date has already passed to do something for the upcoming year, however they may be able to begin the process for the following year. Higgins will do some research to determine what course of action the council should take.

The council then approved the Emergency Medical Services’ request for an additional appropriations of $2,880 to pay six months’ worth of rent to New Harmony.

The Emergency Management Agency’s (EMA) request for an additional appropriation line be added to their budget to purchase office furniture sparked a bit of a debate among council members. The EMA was not requesting additional funds,

MSD Mount Vernon chooses insurance provider

By Pam Robinson At its Monday, August 20, meeting, the Mount Vernon School Board approved insurance carriers for personnel as recommended by the District Insurance Committee.

Their vote encompassed health, dental, Life and accidental death and dismemberment, or AD & D, and long-term disability, or LTD, insurance coverage.

Anthem was selected to finish the three-year contract with Welborn Health Plans since Welborn is exiting the insurance market. The contract runs from October 1 this year through September 30, 2013 and allows employees to choose from a $500 deductible PPO plan, a $1,500 deductible PPO plan, and a

$3,000 deductible High Deductible Health Plan, or HDHP, with Health Savings Account, or HAS—with this last option available beginning January 1, 2013. Employees will no longer have access to a $100 deductible plan.

Employee premiums for Anthem insurance were outlined by Loren Evans, Director of Business and Technology. His chart revealed the rate increase or decrease in transitioning from Anthem to Welborn: The board’s voted renewed the contract with HRI Dental, beginning October 1 this year and running through September 30, 2014.

The continued coverage comes with a 2 percent rate increase with no change in benefit.

Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD & D) insurance will be supplied by Guardian on a 3-year contract from October 1 this year through September 30, 2015. Their premiums allow a 21 percent rate decrease. Likewise, Guardian will provide long-term disability (LTD) insurance, also on a 3-year contract from October 1 this year through September 30, 2015. This premium allows for a 17 percent rate decrease.

The administration hopes to bring a recommendation to the next meeting on vision insurance. Once again, Guardian seems to offer the best value, but the insurance committee wants to ensure an adequate level of coverage.

OPINION

Freedom, entitlement have no place in the same government According to American history, Europeans came to America in search of several precious things, many of which we now take for granted. They came to America to limit government in their everyday lives and to enjoy freedom, in all of its areas.

They came with a common purpose and the ability to put aside their petty differences for the greater good. Wow, how far we have strayed. We have now become the land and generation of entitlement.

There was a time when education was a privilege. Now, it is guaranteed for anyone who wants it. There was a time when medical care was a privilege, often reserved just for the rich. Now, individuals expect immediate medical care whether they can pay for it or not. They expect their illegitimate children to be supported through the government including free health care and food stamps. If you visit an emergency room, you will find many more youngsters there with a snotty nose that are on Medicaid. Those who pay for their medical care usually don't go unless they really need to go. This has indeed become the land of entitlement.

I am not saying there is

no place for helping your neighbor through medicaid and food stamps. But I am

TRUTH...

STRANGER THAN FICTION

BY DAVE PEARCE in favor of trying to make sure these individuals are at least trying to make a living through working and not taking the money the rest of us work so hard for and spending it on illegal drugs. Simple drug testing at the welfare line would probably eliminate 50 percent of the problem of that deficit.

People from other countries have come in and expect all the same things generations of American have sacrificed to gain. Instead of the "Great Melting Pot," it has become the "Land of Entitlement." Once you cross the line into the U.S., apparently cash begins to fall from the sky and free food and medical care are just a phone call away.

And I often wonder, why can't Americans just be Americans. Why must we be distinguished by "African American," "Hispanic American," or "Native American."

We could certainly achieve much more if we worked together just as Americans. You can be proud of your heritage without trying to force it down the throats of others in the county to where you have come.

Sometimes I believe it is a little bit like religion. Why must we have Baptists, Methodists, Catholics, Apostolics, etc. After all, when it comes right down to it, you will not be judged on your merit as a Baptist or a Methodist. You

This week let’s concentrate on the groom, starting with the ceremony and covering up to the golden wedding anniversary.

Andrew Luck and the General Assembly humbling experience.

Despite the recent polarization of our political atmosphere, mostly at the federal level, Indiana has proven that with the right economic policies and fiscal restraint, we can continue to succeed and prosper.

It is because of the Hoosier spirit, which is engrained in all aspects of life in Indiana, including our football team, that we have gained so much acclaim.

Hoosiers know the value of rolling up their sleeves and getting down in the weeds to get things done right.

The Colts embody the same principles when it comes to putting in the time and energy to succeed at the highest level while staying under the salary cap.

Like football, we, at the General Assembly, are also in a form of “preseason”.

Legislators and a few community experts serve on interim study committees that review legislation and make recommendations to next year’s General Assembly. I serve as a member of the Joint Study Commit-

tee on Transportation and Infrastructure Assessment and Solutions. The committee is tasked with discussing the current status and challenges that our state faces concerning different modes of transportation and how we can expand on the opportunities at hand.

You may enjoy watching football more than interim committee meetings, but I encourage you to watch the transportation study committee online and the numerous other committees that are already in full swing at http://www.in.gov/ legislative. Click the “Study Committees” tab on the left hand side of the browser to access the complete list of summer study committees and their meeting times.

In closing, football season is back, not only for the Colts, but also for our high schools. The students have weathered a hot summer to get ready for their games each week, so be sure to see them in action as there could be a future Peyton Manning or Andrew Luck in the mix.

Guest Editorial Jack Ronald, Publisher Don’t worry your pretty little heads about it, Hoosiers.

The State of Indiana is perfectly comfortable keeping you in the dark. It makes things easier for special interests and the government employees who are supposed to be regulating them.

The latest evidence supporting that assertion comes from the Indiana Department of Environmental Management’s Office of Air Quality.

Those folks are seeking permission from the Environmental Protection Agency to stop publishing notices of hearings. The time and cost of notifying the public are a nuisance.

It would be simpler to post the notices on a website and send emails to people who sign up to get notification.

Trouble is, the average person doesn’t go surfing through hearing notices from IDEM or sign up for email notification. Taking the web-only approach guarantees that special interest groups — both corporate and environmental — are informed about what’s going on.

The general public, people who read newspapers, would be kept in the dark.

It is never a simple thing for a newspaper to take to the soapbox about public notice advertising. After all, public notice ads provide a revenue stream. Not a huge one, but one that could rightly provoke cynicism — or at least skepticism —

Teen daughter learns to treasure garage sale ‘trash’

Guest Column by State Rep. Wendy McNamara It seems Andrew Luck is the real deal. The firstround draft pick has showcased his talents this preseason proving he has what it takes to pick up where Manning left off. During the offseason, the Colts have been very busy as they rebuild the storied franchise following the exit of eventual Hall of Famer Peyton Manning. By hiring a new head coach, a new general manager and signing a multitude of new players to fill the void of those who were released, it is evident that the theme of Colts football this year is “new and improved”.

Witnessing the evolution of the Colts franchise reminded me of my first experiences as a state representative. Following the 2010 election, I was one of 19 freshmen House members elected to the Republican caucus; a new group to help lead Indiana in a new direction. To represent District 76 and take the voices of Posey, Gibson and Vanderburgh counties with me to the Statehouse has been a

when we argue that public notice ads serve an important purpose in a democratic society.

So let’s get a few basics cleared up right away.

It’s the Indiana General Assembly which requires when public notice advertising should be published. It’s the Indiana General Assembly which determines the size of the type. And — except for some non-governmental categories — it’s the Indiana General Assembly which sets the price to be charged.

That’s the system that’s been in place for more than 80 years.

That’s how Hoosiers learned about the innards of local budgets that couldn’t be explained in a single news story by a single reporter.

That’s how they learned about landfill expansions.

That’s how they found out about requests for zoning variances.

But over the past few decades, that system has been under assault from people who would rather keep Hoosiers in the dark.

Operating under the pretence of saving taxpayers’ dollars, lobbyists have successfully chopped away at the transparency provided by public notice advertising.

Older readers will recall when school corporation expenditures were spelled out in claims reports. That was killed thanks to a joint effort by the Indiana State Teachers Associa-

FEATURES EDITOR PAM ROBINSON WRITER / REPORTER VALERIE WERKMEISTER STAFF PHOTOGRAPHERS THE DAVE & TERRI KOCH FAMILY

tion and the Indiana School Boards Association. Teachers didn’t like seeing their salaries published. School boards didn’t like the public looking over their shoulder.

Older readers will also recall when the county commissioners claims for expenditures were routinely spelled out the same way. That was targeted by the Association of Indiana Counties, though most rural county officials will tell you they had no problem with making sure things were public.

Fact is, there has been a war on public notice advertising in Indiana for at least 20 years.

And the latest arrogance from IDEM is just the latest assault.

Those trying to keep Hoosiers in the dark will argue that it’s all about the money.

But when the Office of Air Quality at IDEM said that eliminating the publication requirement could save $7,500, the Hoosier State Press Association offered to take over the job of placing public notice ads and handling tearsheets. At no charge.

It’s not the money.

This newspaper would survive without public notice advertising.

But you — the reader, the citizen, the taxpayer, the voter — would be shortchanged.

And you’d be in the dark.

Then again, that seems to be what some folks want.

His selfpublished book, “The Loss of Innocence” poignantly depicted his war experiences. His drawings are now preserved in the permanent collections of the National Veterans Art Museum in Chicago and the Connolly Library at LaSalle University in Philadelphia.

Christmas, from Page 1A years, dishing up food in the cafeteria also. In addition, she opened at T’s Truck Stop before her bus route in the morning; in the evening and on weekends, she drove the bus for team sports’ trips— volleyball, softball and basketball—during this same time period.

She will tell anyone that all her hard work paid off educational expenses at Purdue for her only child Daphne, but one suspects Christmas would have made the same choices had she been childless. When she turned 17, she enrolled in Evansville’s TriState Beauty College after completing her senior year of high school in December. From 1979 to 1980, she worked in a Poseyville salon before opening a home salon that she kept open mornings and Saturdays from 1980 to 1999.

Throughout her 44-year

marriage to Bill Christmas, she has kept up this pace.

She’s obviously joking about her work habits when she briefly describes her situation upon her father’s death.

“I always said that my sisters raised me because I was 3 [years old] when our dad died. Mom was 30, Joy and Jane [twins] were 10 and Lauretta was 13,” Christmas explains. “Mom was single for quite a while, so she had to work to raise us girls. I always said that my sisters raised me, and then my husband took over.”

Yeah, right.

She joined the Griffin Fire Department in the late 70’s and still serves as the organization’s treasurer. Moreover, she has enjoyed meeting one Saturday a month with the Griffin Town Council since the mid-1980s.

Somehow Christmas makes the time to read.

Quilting and sewing small pieces, such as decorative doilies, keep her in touch with her twin sisters, Jane Kendle of Francisco and Joy Straw of Poseyville, for whom Christmas first subbed as a bus driver. She holds in loving memory her late sister Lauretta Sharp, whose husband Wayne taught mathematics at North Posey for over 30 years.

Christmas mentions proudly her husband’s amateur wine-making that has earned him international recognition. She notes his retirement in 2010 as a North Posey night custodian. He still umpires softball and referees volleyball at North Posey. He and Judy look like twins themselves, each one wearing a North Posey Viking t-shirt.

Best of all now for Christmas is a schedule that permits her to get to all North

Going Local Week 2012, support local farmers Talk of local food is everywhere. If you relish the fresh taste of a locally-grown, vine-ripened tomato or revel in a complex, yet balanced, glass of Indiana wine, then join us in celebrating This is a time to indulge in our Indiana grown foods across the state and encourage families and communities to include at least one Indiana grown or produced food products at each meal.

“We know consumers want to buy locally-grown food, and it is one of the reasons why I created the Indiana Grown program,” said Lt. Governor Becky Skillman. “Through Indiana Grown we are connecting Hoosiers directly to products produced by Indiana farmers, benefitting not only the producer but the rural community as well.”

In Indiana there are now more than one-hundred communities that host farmers’ markets. It is estimated that if more families would shift just $4.50 of their weekly food budget to buy food directly from local farms each week, farms would earn $1.5 billion of new income annually (20% increase).

Local is shorthand for an idea rather than a firm definition. Unlike organic standards, which entail specific legal definitions, inspection processes, and labels, local means different things to different people, depending on where they live, the growing season and the products of

interest.

“Indiana has such an abundance of local foods.

We have great produce, meats, and poultry. And the artisanal products such as sweets, sauces, cheeses, cocktail mixers, baked goods, honey and syrups are nationally, and in some cases, internationally acclaimed,” said Victoria Wesseler, who author the Going Local site. Wessler created Going Local Week in 2008 to bring further awareness to the local foods available here in Indiana.

Need ideas to celebrate Going Local Week or additional information?

You can dish up Indiana food and producers, listings of local food events, farm

tours, as well as recipes featuring Indiana’s fresh, local, and in-season foods on the Going Local website (www. goinglocal-info.com).

To better locate local foods in your local grocery store or restaurant, look for the Indiana Grown logo.

This is a new cooperative program among producers, processors, wholesalers, retailers and the Indiana State Department of Agriculture (ISDA) to brand and promote Indiana produce and production. The goal is for consumers to easily identify, find and buy Indiana grown products. For more information or to locate a farmers’ market near you, please visit the ISDA web site (http:// www.in.gov/isda/index.htm)

Posey sports, especially the soccer games of her grandson Logan in sixth grade at North. She’ll be there for Logan’s sisters also—Skylar, an eighth grader at the junior high, and Makenna, a first grader at North.

No one should expect even a relaxed conversation with Christmas, for her animated talk focuses on her enthusiasm for all North Posey kids. No wonder Steve Kavanaugh, North Posey Junior High principal, calls her “the grandma of the building.”

She may be celebrating retirement, but Christmas certainly doesn’t plan to slow down.

Water Hydrants sticky point during MV budget approvals

By Pam Robinson Everyone on the Mount Vernon City Council approved the 2013 city budget on first reading at its Thursday, August 23, meeting— everyone except Councilman Andy Hoehn. Hoehn objected to the amount designated for the line item regarding fire hydrant rental, wanting to see it cut by $150,000.

Hoehn pointed to a $300,000 line item while Clerk-Treasure Denise Dike reported the line item amount as $213,000 after the meeting.

Hoehn said he had voiced his concern in previous budget meetings, and he thought the line item would have been lowered to reflect that concern. In response, Councilman Bill Curtis said more discussion needed to occur regarding a cut in that line item. He added that the cut might come in 2014, but not in the 2013 budget.

Clerk-Treasurer Dike along with Curtis pointed out that to meet the deadline for filing the budget, council needed to act. The proposed budget still must be published twice and a public hearing held before it can be filed. Curtis was serving as Mayor Pro Tem since Mayor John Tucker was on vacation.

In other business: • Council approved on first reading the 2013 salary ordinance, which, it was

stated, awaits final approval after the 2013 budget is published and the public hearing is held.

• Council approved resolution 12-17 to allow a temporary loan from the Rainy Day Fund and the EDIT Fund to the General Fund and Parks & Rec. The loan must be repaid by December 31, 2012.

Councilman Hoehn commented that he assumed this type of loan would go away next year after their budget work.

• In answering Councilman Hoehn’s question, Wastewater Superintendent Rodney Givens reported that he had invited three vendors to bid on removing the sewer line from the bridge near Wesselman’s. He added that engineers expect the removal to cost $25,000 or less. He estimated that the project should be moving in less than two weeks and said he would report to council again at their next meeting.

• Council members Andy Hoehn and Sue Shelton will be serving on the Redevelopment Commission.

•When meeting as the Water Utility Board, council heard a positive report on the Waterworks improvement project from Rich DeMarco of Johnson Controls, Inc. The Mount Vernon City Council will meet again Thursday, September 6, 2012, 7 p.m. in the City Hall Annex.

Soap Company donates to MV Food Pantry

By Pam Robinson Jim and Stephanie Spann, owners of New Harmony Soap Company, are acting to help their Mount Vernon neighbors in crisis. After Erin Hollinger, director of the Mount Vernon Food Pantry, sent out another S.O.S.-- stock our shelves-in the Posey County News, the Spanns knew they had to help this local organization.

"Like most Americans, Stephanie and I are deeply concerned about the increasing number of families unable to make ends meet,” comments Jim Spann. “The

Mount Vernon Food Pantry provides the most vital kind of support to adults and kids in our community and we're honored to be part of their mission. It'll be fun to see how many jars of peanut butter we can put on the Pantry's shelves."

The Spanns will calculate 5 percent of their July, August and September sales, then purchase food in that amount to donate to the Mount Vernon Food Pantry.

They plan to donate peanut butter, an item Hollinger noted as popular with food pantry clients, but cut from

the pantry’s food choices.

The cut is just one consequence of a roughly 40 percent increase in food pantry usage this summer over last summer combined with a decrease in donations.

By the end of September, the Spanns hope the Mount Vernon Food Pantry will be receiving donations from additional sources.

They will decide, based on those donations, whether to continue supplying peanut butter to the Mount Vernon Food Pantry or to move their donation to another charity in a pinch.

Mount Vernon High School grad becomes K-9 trooper Indiana State Trooper and Posey County native Seth Rainey and his new K-9 “Teague” recently graduated from the very first Indiana State Police K-9 Training School and are now patrolling the roadways in the Evansville District.

This is the first K-9 class completely instructed by Indiana State Police trainers Master Trooper Kevin Waters and Senior Trooper Mick Dockery, under the direction of Master Instructor Sergeant Dennis Wade. Prior to this school, Indiana State Police had received their training at a school in Fort Wayne.

The dual purpose dogs have over 400 hours of training scenarios held in locations throughout central Indiana, including the Putnamville and Pendleton State Penitentiaries, National Guard Armories and the Morgan County Fairgrounds.

Upon graduation from the twelve week course the dogs are certified in obedience control, narcotics, tracking, aggression control, evidence search, open air search and building

search. The narcotic detection includes marijuana, heroin, cocaine, crack cocaine, methamphetamines and ecstasy.

The four German Shepherds, which cost $ 5,500 each, were purchased in Michigan with funds donated to the ISP K-9 program. Funding has been donated from a variety of sources throughout Indiana including community foundations, prosecutor’s offices and the Tony Stewart Foundation. The ISP K-9 program is self supporting and does not rely on taxpayer support.

Trooper Rainey is a three-year veteran and primarily patrols Posey County. Rainey named his K-9 “Teague” after Trooper Eugene Teague, who was the first Indiana State Trooper killed in the line of duty. Teague was killed on December 21, 1933, during the capture of members of the Dillinger gang.

Indiana State Police currently have three K-9 units that patrol within the Evansville District, which covers Knox, Pike, Gibson, Posey, Vanderburgh and Warrick Counties.

MVSH Fine Arts Academy Choirs to perform in N.Y. Distinguished Concerts International New York City (DCINY) announced today that director Dana Taylor and the choirs at Mt. Vernon Senior High Fine Arts Academy have been invited to participate in a New York City premiere performance of Christopher Tin’s Grammy-Award winning work, Calling All Dawns on the DCINY Concert Series in New York City.

This performance at Lincoln Center’s Avery Fisher Hall, under the baton of Dr. Jonathan Griffith, will be held in April of 2013. These outstanding musicians will join with other choristers to form the Distinguished Concerts Singers International, a choir of distinction. Christopher Tin will serve as composerinresidence for the residency.

Dr. Jonathan Griffith, Artistic Director and Princi-

pal Conductor for DCINY states: “Mr. Taylor and his students in the choir program at Mount Vernon Senior High Fine Arts Academy received this invitation because of the quality and high level of musicianship demonstrated by the singers, as well as the strong personal recommendation given by the composer.

Christopher Tin collaborated with the program in 2012 and speaks very highly of their work. It is quite an honor just to be invited to perform in New York, especially at the request of such a high profile composer. These wonderful musicians not only represent a high quality of music and education, but they also become ambassadors for the entire community. This is an event of extreme pride for everybody and deserving of the community’s recognition and

support.”

The singers will spend 5 days and 4 nights in New York City in preparation for their concert. “The singers will spend approximately 9-10 hours in rehearsals over the 5 day residency.” says Griffith.

“Not all of the time is spent in rehearsals, since there is so much history and culture to see in New York City. However, the performance is the primary purpose for their visit to the city.” Members of the community are encouraged to give financial support in sending these singers to New York by contacting Dana Taylor at (812) 833-5932 or via email at taylordw@msdmv.k12. in.us.

Works board approves street closures

By Pam Robinson The Mount Vernon Board of Public Works and Safety carried on while Mayor John Tucker stepped away for vacation. Board members Steve Fuelling and Bill Curtis approved city street closures for River Days, the second weekend in September.

Beginning Thursday morning, September 6, Water Street from College to Locust will be barricaded.

Additional streets will also be barricaded for the Pet Parade on Saturday morning at 10 a.m.—starting from Dr. Sarah Appel’s office on 3rd heading to College and ending at the riverfront stage.

Likewise, more streets will be blocked for the Festival

Parade, starting at Mount Vernon High School, 5 p.m. and heading downtown. On Sunday only, the court house square will be blocked for the car show.

River Days chairwoman Becky Higgins also requested that Fire Chief Wes Dixon make sure the Homeland Security permit was in order and that Street Commissioner Roy Maynard spray for mosquitoes in the festival area a couple of days prior to the event.

In other business: • The board approved the 50-50 split of security rates for police officers working during River Days between the City of Mount Vernon and the River Days Committee.

• Fire Chief Wes Dixon thanked everyone for supporting his department’s collection efforts for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. He and his firefighters collected $1,384, a 24 percent increase over the previous year.

• Wastewater Superintendent Rodney Givens reported that his department had been certified again to run lab tests.

• Street Commissioner Roy Maynard reported that his department has been spraying nightly for mosquitoes.

The Mount Vernon Board of Public Works and Safety will meet again Thursday, September 6, 4 p.m. at the City Hall Annex.

Fair Housing ordinance to get overhaul

By Valerie Werkmeister A short agenda and Posey County Commissioner President Jim Alsop’s absence made for a very brief meeting last Tuesday, August 21. County Councilman John Sherretz presided as president in Alsop’s absence.

Attorney Adam Farrar gave an overview on the need to amend the county’s Fair Housing ordinance. Commissioners had previously wondered why there was a need to approve a new ordinance when federal guidelines already existed. Farrar advised that if the county wished to receive any future grant funding from the Office of Community and Rural Assistance, an amendment to the current ordinance would have to be adopted.

The current ordinance states that it prohibits any type of discrimination in housing due to a person’s race, gender, familial status or religion. The amendment broadens the definition of familial status discrimination to include sexual orientation.

Farrar continued that he had previously discussed the changes with the commissioners and they were not required to act on the amendment immediately.

“If we choose to receive these benefits in the future, we will certainly need to comply, “ he said.

The measure was tabled for future consideration.

Posey County Building Commissioner Ed Battieger informed the commissioners that construction on the Hovey House insulation project was scheduled to begin on August 22. The first phase had already been completed. The next portion involves lowering the ceilings to install the insulation and then replacing the ceiling, trim and lighting. He anticipated the project would take approximately three weeks.

Change orders for the Levee Unit 5 improvement project were presented and approved.

The next regular meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 4, at 9 a.m.

Monsanto Fund’s grow communities grants The Monsanto Fund has launched “America’s Farmers Grow Communities” for the third year in a row, giving local farmers the opportunity to give $2,500 in unrestricted funding to their designated recipient. New this year, in the counties that have been declared disaster areas by the USDA (all the counties in S.W. Indiana, Kentucky and Illinois), the

Monsanto Fund is providing an additional $2,500 donation. Therefore, for two farmers selected on a random basis, two $2,500 awards will be made to a local non-profit organization of their choosing in each qualifying county.

Registration for this year’s program ends on November 30, 2012. Farmers have the opportunity to

register on the Monsanto Grow Communities web site: www.growcommunities.com.

The process is very simple; farmers spend 2-3 minutes on growcommunities. com website and enter their name and preferred organization. No purchase is required and it’s simply a way for them to give back to local communities.

Babcock and Wilcox United Way Pacesetters The Babcock & Wilcox Company is a Pacesetter Company for the 2012 United Way Campaign. They will run their United Way campaign early and their results will be announced at the United Way of Posey County Campaign Kick-off Breakfast on September 19th. This early support by B&W and its employees will get this year’s campaign off to a great start.

The Babcock & Wilcox Company (B&W) has been a part of the Posey County community since the 1960s and enjoys a unique legacy that began with the production of some of the first commercial nuclear components in the U.S. Today, B&W’s Mount Vernon facility employs 165 highly skilled team members from throughout the tri-state region, and primarily manufactures heavy components for naval nuclear reactors used in submarines and aircraft carriers. It also produces largescale components for com-

soap each day in the store so customers can watch and learn; and then later this year we will expand the interactive nature of our business to include a custom lotion boutique. In this area customers can select from an array of botanical ingredients and aromatic essential oils that we will blend while they wait, creating a truly personal lotion specific to their skin health and aromatherapy objectives.”

The new facility also provides an additional 1,400 square-feet of space that will be dedicated to production, packaging, and order processing. “This space is critical to our business, “ explains Jim Spann. “We can scale up

mercial nuclear power plants.

The entire B&W Mount Vernon team is proud of its contributions to America’s nuclear power history and our country’s national defense.

Personnel from B&W were instrumental in starting the Posey County United Way and are extremely pleased to continue to support this organization and honor B&W’s fifty year legacy in this community.

As a United Way pacesetter for this year’s campaign, the B&W-Mount Vernon team has challenged every person who lives and/or works in Posey County to help our fellow community members in need by supporting this worthwhile cause, saying “Every dollar donated and each minute volunteered truly makes a difference.”

Wayne Games, 2012 United Way of Posey County Campaign Chairman, said “The Posey County United Way volunteers are pleased and excited to have Babcock & Wil-

cox (B&W) as a Pacesetter during this historic year. For 50 years, the United Way of Posey County has worked to improve the quality of life for the Posey County community and it is fitting that individuals from B&W were among those starting this work in Posey County 50 years ago and are now a Pacesetter to help this 50th Anniversary campaign have great success.”

This year’s goal is $690,000. Funds raised in the United Way Campaign go to support 21 local agencies and more than 75 programs that provide services to the people of Posey County, including 2-1-1, the easy-to-remember number to call for information and assistance about needs and resources, and the new prescription drug discount program. For more information about services provided by the United Way of Posey County or volunteer opportunities available, call 838-3637 or email uwposey@sbcglobal. net.

CHRIS’ PHARMACY CELEBRATES 29 YEARS OF

TAKING CARE OF FAMILY BUSINESS

YOUR

LIFE

BY THE POSEY COUNTY NEWS

Registered Pharmacist Chris Kissel cannot tell his story of opening Chris’ Pharmacy in New Harmony without multiple references to his father, the late Jerry Kissel. Like father, like son— the junior Kissel makes clear that although he and his father walked different career paths, they were led by the same entrepreneurial spirit.

When Chris was only 10 years old, he started following in his father’s footsteps. The two of them together did the custodial work at Franklin Theater every weekend night after the last moviegoers left, working to clean the place and have it ready for the next crowd. In this way, the young Kissel got to know a strong work ethic and—best of all—his father.

“I never minded the work,” he says, “because it was fun being with my dad.”

A Westsider, his dad started out in the printing business until, in time, he worked up enough nerve and capital to purchase Midwest Fire and Safety, renaming it A & F Fire and Safety. His wife Aileen, mother of four and a registered nurse at St. Mary’s Hospital, joined in the building of a successful business which sold and serviced fire trucks and all the equipment, fire extinguishers to homeowners and small businesses, as well as big-name industrial clients such as General Electric. Ultimately, the senior Kissel expanded his business and catered to restaurants—selling and installing state-of-the-art, overhead hood extinguisher systems. At the same time, he and Aileen bought and operated Helen’s Restaurant for two years before realizing they couldn’t serve two masters.

The junior Kissel admires his father’s military service in WWII and his community service record as well. His dad held active memberships in the Fire Siren Club, Kiwanis, a Northside business group, Goodwill and the Westside Nut Club.

Once he sold A & F Fire and Safety, he did what he loved most. He served as a board member with the Evansville Housing Authority, was the director of the Ozanan Center at St. Anthony’s church which provided meals for the homeless, and later he managed Second Chance, a halfway house to teach business etiquette to men leaving prison and hoping to start a new life in the work world.

“I always had the hope of having my own business like my dad,” Kissel states.

That thought stayed in the back of his mind as he made his way up the ranks at St. Boniface to reach high school, spending two years at Marmion military school in Aurora, Ill, near Chicago, and two years at Reitz. He held down summer jobs throughout his college years at Purdue. After working two summers on the line at Whirlpool, he finally got his big break when Hart’s Drug Store in Evansville hired him to work as a pharmacy technician. A Columbus, Ohio, based mega pharmacy, Hart’s provided Kissel with great experience in helping to fill 800-1,000 prescriptions a day. He still recalls his first job—putting prescription bottles in bins close to the pharmacists’ reach.

Needless to say, Hart’s offered Kissel a job as staff pharmacist upon his graduation in 1973 from Purdue and passing boards in the fall to become a registered pharmacist. A few years later, Hart’s Drug Store left Evansville when the property was purchased to build a city parking garage.

Kissel then worked for Roy Miles in his pharmacy for five years and afterward in St. Mary’s Hospital pharmacy for five years. One of his parttime employees worked one day a week in New Harmony to give that pharmacist a day off. She alerted Kissel when the pharmacy in New Harmony went up for sale.

To reach a purchase decision, Kissel and his

wife Judy talked with the owner to learn about current business affairs, and with an Evansville pharmaceutical wholesale owner Robert Leich to learn about the store’s history. Beyond that, he sought advice from church members who owned their own businesses.

In the end, however, he counseled with his dad.

Like father, like son—the junior Kissel and his wife prayed for wisdom in reaching a purchase decision.

“God didn’t leave any door closed,” Kissel reflects, “so we took the leap.”

God opened his arms wide to receive him. Kissel says he fell for the quaint drugstore, even its aroma. He celebrated the blessing of 29 years in business at Chris’ Pharmacy this past Sunday, August 19.

Like father, like son—Kissel has most enjoyed his interaction with people as he filled their prescriptions.

“They have become my extended family,” he comments.

He admits most of his customers live in New Harmony, yet he cares for some from Poseyville and Mount Vernon. He estimates another 5 to 10 percent came from Illinois before the closing of the bridge. Most gratifying to him are the customers who have moved farther away and still do business with him.

“My best advertising comes from my customers,” he maintains.

Kissel readily admits that his staff members are a big part of the service and success of the business as well. He and four employees see to customer needs: Melanie, also a registered pharmacist; Nicky, a certified pharmacy technician; Pam, a pharmacy technician in training; and Melissa, clerk.

Kissel’s extended family of customers has supported him and his wife Judy as they raised their two North Posey High School graduates—daughter Jenny, who holds her doctorate in physical therapy and serves at Southern Missouri Baptist Hospital, and son Jeff, who works for Windstream Communications and lives in North Carolina with his wife Amy (Lottes) and their two children, Emily Madisen (10) and Evan Samuel (8).

Like father, like son—Chris Kissel is active in business organizations that strengthen his career: Indiana Pharmacists’ Association, National Community Pharmacists’ Association and Southwestern Indiana Pharmacists’ Association, for which he served as president from 1993-94.

During his free time, Kissel likes to target shoot, a skill he learned in military school, at the Mount Vernon Conservation Club.

Chris’ Pharmacy hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday. To check on a prescription or to transfer your prescriptions to Chris’ Pharmacy, customers may call 812-682-3044. The pharmacy offers the latest in technology, is very competitive with area pharmacies, has a big front end with Hallmark cards and Russell Stover candy, and provides a lot of other services. Customers especially like to stop in and see the collection of pharmacy memorabilia.

“Thank you New Harmony for your patronage and love. You have always made me feel welcome here these past 29 years,” Kissel states in closing.

“I sincerely appreciate all you have done for me, and I am forever happy that I was led to practice the art of pharmacy in this wonderful little town.”

Posey County News cup to stay in Poseyville this year of 22 penalties for 163 yards. A little out of character for two teams who each won their first games of the season last week in relatively penalty-free fashion.

“I don’t know if it was concentration or if we were pressing a little bit and didn’t make some plays we thought we should have made and then got a little edgy,” Gengelbach said.

“I don’t want to speak for Paul (Maier) but I thought we had a penalty or two that we didn’t feel like we should have had and he probably feels about the same way but those a judgment calls, especially on those pass interference calls.”

The Vikings took the opening kick-off and Wes Harness, who finished with 197 yards on 22 carries, broke loose for a 56-yard touchdown run and only two minutes into the game, the Vikings took a lead they would never surrender.

But the Mount Vernon Wildcats showed they are capable of big plays, as well..

The Wildcats, led by freshman quarterback Ryley Snodgrass, held the Vikings scoreless the remainder of the period and then scored

Coming out of the quarter break, Snodgrass found speedy J.T. Silvers open and he did the rest and Michael Cannato’s extra point made things even.

The teams battled evenly until the Vikings were able to complete a drive with just over three minutes remaining in the first half.

Quarterback Alec Werry found Tyler Atkins for a big eight yard reception to make the Wildcats respect the pass then Harness took over. He carried the ball to the ball several times, the last one to the Mount Vernon six yard line where Werry caught the Wildcats expecting a hand-off and he ran the ball in from the six.

That could have been the beginning of the end for the Wildcats as the defense came up big for North Posey. A Zac Wargel sack keep the Wildcats pinned to their own end zone and the Vikings had a short field following the punt as Jake Bender brought the ball back Please see FOOTBALL, Page B3

Harshbarger returns ‘home’ in both career and residence

By Pam Robinson Twenty-eight-year-old Michael Harshbarger started as the new director of Mount Vernon-Black Township Parks and Recreation Dept. on Wednesday, August 22. A former Wildcat basketball player, the athletic 2003 graduate of Mount Vernon High School has called Posey County home since he was 3 years old. He brings the enthusiasm and education necessary to maintain excellence at Parks and Rec. “I’ve inherited a very good program,” Harshbarger comments. “I knew John Tate the former director, and everything looks fantastic. I want to continue to grow our programs and develop new programs that really get youth excited and out into the community as well as adults. I want to provide as many different opportunities to be involved, to be outside and exercise, to enjoy the numerous parks we have here and to keep progressing with our programs and the state of our parks. I want to make our parks as welcoming, as accessible and as fun as possible.”

The position seems meant for Harshbarger. His new office at Hedges served earlier as his fifth grade classroom, and he recalls his own participation in Parks and Rec programs as a child and young adult.

“I played basketball, baseball, soccer, and flag football. I have very fond memories of those times,” he says.

Harshbarger doesn’t try to contain his excitement about returning to Posey County, having worked two years in St. Louis after his graduation from University of Southern Indiana and Indiana State University, where he earned his master’s in sports management and recreation. Both he and his wife Danielle (Clowers), the sister of Posey County Prosecutor Travis Clowers, grew up here and appreciate bringing their young son and daughter, Reese (4) and Josie (2), here.

“We’re really excited to be back,” Harshbarger states.

“I’m excited to get going in my position.”

He joins an eager staff: Ruth Fulwider, manager of the community center and pool; Adam Jines, recreation manager; and Debbie Scott, administrative assistant.

Mount Vernon-Black Township Parks and Recreation Dept. will reopen its community center at Hedges on Tuesday, August 28, after a great summer season of activity at Brittlebank Park Pool. Community center hours are Tuesday and Thursday noon – 8 p.m. and Wednesday, Friday and Saturday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. The community center is closed Sunday and Monday.

Fall and winter youth leagues are forming for soccer, cheerleading, football, hockey and basketball. Likewise, adult softball and indoor volleyball leagues are looking for action. New for adults is roller skating in the evenings this

fall. Participants may download registrations forms at www. mountvernon.in.gov or pick them up at the Hedges office, 716 Locust Street, Entrance #8.

Mount Vernon High School graduate and Mount Vernon native Michael Harshbarger returns to Mount Vernon to lead the Parks and Recreation Department.

Musician Randy Pease keeps harmony in New Harmony An eight-year resident of New Harmony, Randy Pease has

received a warm welcome to the small town he loves. He has certainly done his part to keep harmony in New Harmony.

The music director for the Artists’ Guild in New Harmony, Pease has been bringing in concerts, such as the Hank Williams’ Tribute, for the guild for the past three years. In addition, he sings and plays with female musicians Liz Mumford and Jan Morris in their popular local band, Harmony Road.

Pease says that his life revolves around music. Indeed, he’s released three of his own CD’s, each containing some of his original compositions: “Call Me Ishmael” (1997), “Sometimes the Moon” (2002), and “Prodigal Sunshine” (2010). All three CDs were engineered by fellow musician Jeff Parker.

Pease has been recognized as one of the seminal figures in the Red Dirt music movement, which has burgeoned in the Southwest and is rippling outward to the rest of the continent.

Gifted with an ear for music, he plays fast and loose with several musical genres, including folk, country, rhythm & blues, rockabilly, bluegrass, blues, pop, gospel, even a little jazz. But

his specialty is the story song – a song with strong characters and a plot.

His “Ballad of Rosalee,” recorded by Tulsa, Oklahoma, band Cody Canada and The Departed, rose to #1 in the Longhorn State last year after seven weeks on the charts. Recently, he wrote “I Love This Game,” a song about baseball recorded by several of his musician friends.

Not only is Pease a gifted musician, he is a talented USI college professor and writer as well. In fact, he never seems to tire of composition—whether writing songs, reading student essays, or creating a historical novel. He is hoping to interest someone in his latest fiction book, as yet untitled, which deals with the Vietnam War, a subject he teaches also at USI. Passionate about his pursuits, Pease reserves his greatest love for his 11-year-old daughter, Lily, whose rabbit Lulu has won the blue ribbon two years running at the Posey County 4-H Fair.

Multi-talented like her father, Lily is herself a blossoming guitarist, singer, writer and artist.

North Posey reserves ‘never say die’ in dramatic win

The North Posey JV football team took a never-say-die attitude into the fourth quarter Monday night at home and came roaring back to beat the visiting South Spencer Rebels 42 – 37.

In a wide open scoring affair, the Vikings put up 16 points in the final quarter to begin the 2012 season 1 – 0. The Rebels fell to 0 – 1 on the young season. Leading North Posey early

FOOTBALL, from Page B2 and the Vikings had a short field following the punt as Jake Bender brought the ball back to the 20.

It appeared the Wildcats were going to have the Vikings stopped as they faced a fourth-and-two but again it was Harness who stayed on his feet to the Mount Vernon six. Then, on first down, he took it in with 1:16 remaining in the half to give the Vikings a lead and momentum going into the locker room.

The Wildcats had trouble moving the ball all night on the ground against a big Viking defensive line. The Wildcats finished with only 48 total rushing yards and were unable to gain any of them when they were needed most to gain some momentum to open the second half.

But the Viking defense held and the Wildcats were forced to punt at the 10:22 mark.

A big pass play from Werry to Jake Bender appeared to have the Vikings going in the second half.

After the Wildcat punt to the 28, Bender brought down Werry’s pass and took it to the Mount Vernon 35. But the Wildcat defense stiffened and after a loss, Gengelbach decided to put hit punt team, led by one of the area’s best in Nick Neidig, to work. Neidig kicked the ball extremely high and the Mount Vernon punt return man signaled a fair catch at the five. But the ball skidded out of his hands and sophomore Derek Lindauer made the fumble recovery and the Vikings had the ball on the Mount Vernon five. Harness ran it in on first down and the Vikings led 28-7.

But again Mount Vernon would attempt to stay in the game as a costly North Posey pass interference penalty set up a 56-yard touchdown run by speedy and powerful Austin Guthrie to bring the Vikings back to within 28=14.

But in the final two minutes of the third quarter, the Vikings got touchdowns from Harness and Colton Martin to put the game away.

North Posey led 42-14 heading into the final period.

The Vikings’ James Marshall, who is young but

expected to see significant playing time this season, scored the final Viking points on the evening when he shook loose from seven yards out.

Mount Vernon quickly answered on a 78-yard pass play from Snodgrass to Silvers and all the scoring would be finished for the night.

The game was long, and sometimes ugly as it lasted nearly three hours and had a ton of penalties. Gengelbach was not pleased with everything he saw but not all was negatives. He saw some positives, as well.

“We found out that we may have a couple more players who are starting to develop a little more,” Gengelbach said. “That could help our depth, particularly in a game that is very physical. I thought this game was pretty physical. You can throw out everything when Mount Vernon and North Posey play each other. It has been that way ever since we started playing each other back in 1970. It is a battle every year.”

Coach Paul Maier had to like his pass defense against a team that had shown proficiency last week. The Vikings finished with only four completed passes out of 17 attempts with three interceptions. Ethan Vanzant, River VanZant, and Cory

was Lance Inkenbrandt, the 5-foot-10, 165-pound sophomore running back slashed and burned his way to two touchdowns and one 2-point conversion in the first half to keep the Vikings within striking distance. Inkenbrandt added a third touchdown in the third quarter. But it was Darren O’Risky’s heroics in the second half that ignited the North Posey comeback. The 6’ 175-poind junior scored a touchdown and one 2-point conversion in the fourth quarter while setting up another touchdown on an unusual play in the end zone.

With the game on the line, O’Risky plunged into the end zone from 11 yards out only to bobble the ball. With the pigskin about to squirt out of play in the back of the end zone, sophomore receiver Bryce Martin recovered the ball for a touchdown. O’Risky finished the scoring with a 2-point conversion run.

But the Rebels weren’t finished yet. After taking the ball on a Viking kickoff, South Spencer marched down the field mostly on some nifty scrambling by its Sophomore QB Trevor Lehr. North Posey’s defense held as Lehr made several strikes near or into the end zone only to see the ball fall short or Viking defenders knock it down. With 2.2 seconds on the new North Posey scoreboard, the Rebels ran their last play as time ran out but failed to score. The jubilant and sizable North Posey faithful crowd cheered as the final tenth-of-a-second ticked away.

“We were very excited about the win,” North Posey jayvee Coach Mike Kuhn said, “but we know we have a lot to work on—especially on defense.”

Lady Wildcats sweep Princeton, boys continue to work and improve

Mount Vernon’s Dane Wilson leads the pack of Wildcat men during this week’s dual cross country meet with Princeton held at Brittlebank Park. Photo by Terri Koch

By Steve Joos Mount Vernon girls’ cross country coach Jackie Maier was pleased with the results of her team’s dual meet Tuesday at Brittlebank Park.

Who wouldn’t be?

“Well, we went one-two-three-four-five,” Maier said after the Lady Wildcats took the top five spots for a 15-43 win over visiting Princeton. “That would be a sweep, so I’m pretty pleased.”

Sophomore Toni Waddell led the sweep, although she may have been in another time zone after finishing the five-kilometer course in 18:38. Waddell’s time had her

crossing the finishing line among the top 10 boys, as both the boys and girls ran together at Brittlebank.

After Waddell, the next four Lady Cats were jammed together with 35 seconds separating second through fourth runners.

The Lady Cats’ sweep gave Mount Vernon a split of their only dual meet of the season, as the boys dropped a 21-35 decision to the Tigers.

Meanwhile, back to the girls, Maier cited that pack as a key to the win.

“That’s not a whole lot of time,” she said.

“So that’s good.”

Rachel Cash led the rest of the pack, finishing second with a time of 22:52, and she was followed by teammates McKenzie McClarney (23:00), Claire Schroeder (23:07) and Katie McDonald (23:29).

“Toni, obviously, had a fantastic race,” Maier said. “(A time of) 18:38 is a super time for any runner and this being the first meet of the year, she will be competitive.”

Competing with the boys helped Waddell, who had some other people running with her, Maier explained. Had the two teams run separate races, the sophomore would have been running alone and would not have anyone to pace off of.

Princeton runners took the next four spots, but Maggie Maier (26:44) rounded out the top 10, followed by Cally Schisler (26:46) in 11th place, Katie McCloud (26:54) was 14th and Grace Baldwin (27:49) 16th.

There was good news and bad news for the boys. The good news was that the Wildcats had enough runners for a team score.

The bad news?

They’re still a bit undermanned.

“I didn’t think we ran badly,” coach Tim Searcy said. “I think we had a good effort.

We have some guys who aren’t eligible to run yet, who are still trying to get their 10 practices in. We’ve got some guys who are still nursing some nagging injuries, so we’ve got a skeleton crew.”

Oh and did anyone mention the two runners who are also on the boys’ soccer team and couldn’t run because of the Wildcats’ game with Bosse?

“We’re kind of running a skeleton crew,” Searcy said. “But we have five guys and I think they all went out and competed well.

They all ran pretty well for where we are in the season.”

It may have been bare bones, but Mount Vernon did have enough for a boys’ score.

There were some runners who could have run if necessary, but Searcy wanted to rest those runners in order to keep some nagging injuries from turning into something more serious.

And a few of those runners may have made the Tigers feel as if they were in a haunted forest.

Dane Wilson came in third overall with a time of 17:34, which was closer to the front than the rest of the pack. Will Neiderhaus won the boys’ race in 17:00, three seconds better than Princeton teammate Sam Wallace (17:03). Adam Hoehn (18:12) was fourth, but then the rest of the Tiger pack got between Hoehn and Mount Vernon’s third man, Javon Gentil (19:06), who went 8-9 with Levi Shannon (19:17).

“Dane Wilson finished third and Adam Hoehn was fourth,” Searcy said. “They’re two juniors who came and stepped up to help us out this year. I thought they ran really well. Levi Shannon had a good day. Everybody had a good day. Javon (Gentil), a freshman came out and gave a good, hard

Brandon Roy rounded out the top five for the Cats, finishing 12th (20:37).

Searcy was pleased with the weather, which while it wasn’t autumn-like, was an improvement over the 105-degree temperatures that have hit the area over much of the summer.

North Posey volleyball improves, looks to build on pair of wins

By Steve Joos The North Posey volleyball team won two of three matches last week and in the loss showed that they could put up a fight.

The Lady Vikings rallied from a 7-0 third set deficit before falling in the third set and losing 25-18, 25-17, 26-24 to visiting Vincennes Rivet Wednesday night, but that loss was sandwiched between a pair of wins over Evansville schools.

North Posey opened the

week Tuesday with a 25-18, 25-16, 25-15 win over Bosse and finished with a 25-22, 25-17, 23-25, 25-20 victory over Harrison on Thursday night.

But against the Lady Patriots, the Lady Vikings nearly came back from the dead to at least extend that contest.

“It just shows how much my team’s willing to fight and willing to work hard for a win,” Coach Natalie Bernard said. “They’re driven girls and this is a whole new

style of play. They’re getting used to it, and it just shows how much they’re willing to work for it.”

After falling into that early third-game hole, the Lady Vikings started chipping away, cutting the lead to 12-10 at one point and hanging around until three points with Melissa Schorr at the service line tied the game at 19-19. A side out put Vincennes Rivet back in the driver’s seat, but the Lady Patriots lost the ball on a net error, forging a 20-20 tie and then Tylie Robertson took over, dishing up three straight points to give North Posey a 23-20 lead.

But a volley went off two Lady Vikings, cutting the lead to 23-21 and giving the ball back to Rivet. The Lady Patriots tied the game at 2323 with Kaylee Quinett doing the service honors.

A dump kill put North Posey back in front, but that lead only lasted long enough for a net error to break Bri Brown’s serve. Rivet put over a kill for the go-ahead tally, and then a North Posey net error closed things out.

“That last set obviously did not end the way we wanted it to,” Barnard said.

“It was just a change in momentum that helped us get to a tie ball game. We lost some momentum at the end; they got on a roll and served a few aces at the end that really hurt your team morale.

We did not let them have that ball game.”

And there were times in the first two games where the Lady Vikings made

things interesting as well.

North Posey had the lead on a few occasions in the first game, leading twice before Makala Emmons served to break an 11-11 tie.

The Lady Vikings tried to stay close, but Rivet gradually opened a lead in that contest. The second game saw Rivet build an early 14-6 advantage, only to have North Posey close to within three on a dink kill at 17-14.

“That second set wasn’t our best set by any means,”

Barnard explained. “We had trouble putting the ball away, we had trouble on serve-receive, we had silly mistake after silly mistake.

And when one person makes a silly mistake and gets upset about it, then everyone gets upset.”

The team then has a choice of learning from those mistakes and moving on, or just lying down and dying.

The Lady Vikings chose to learn from their mistakes.

Barnard challenged her

team to minimize their mistakes and that seemed to be the case Thursday, as the Lady Vikings took three of four against visiting Harrison.

Bri Brown had three aces and 15 digs against the Lady Warriors, while Jordan Butler had 15 kills, Eli Schapker 43 assists and Hannah Harness three blocks. Megan Baehl registered 14 digs against Harrison.

Against Rivet, Brown had two aces and 14 digs, while Schapker turned in 31 assists. Marlee Sims registered 10 kills and Butler eight.

Lauren Hermann paced the Lady Patriots with 12 kills, while Emmons turned in 25 assists and Quinett six digs. Janelle Gratner put over five aces in and Bailey Neihaus had four blocks.

North Posey’s week got off to a strong start with a three-set win over Bosse.

“We played well,” Barnard said. “We played as a team. We had a lot of good things happen.”

The team’s seniors played well and when they step up, it makes the coaches’ jobs easier and makes the win more satisfying.

Seniors Butler and Robertson each registered seven kills and shared the team lead with Harness. Butler also dished up a team-high three aces, while Brown had eight digs and Mackenzie Morrow four blocks.

Kennedy Madison led the Lady Bulldogs with 10 kills, while Yemeni Bunter had five aces and Alex Rogers 16 assists.

The reserves took two of three matches last week, beating Bosse 25-16,25-13, and Rivet 25-17, 25-14, but losing to Harrison 25-16, 2125, 15-6.

Against Harrison, Abbi Voegel had 12 assists and an ace, while Jordan Werry turned in four digs and Maddie Feldrake had three kills.

Voegel had four aces and 11 assists against the Lady Patriot reserves, while Brooke Bender turned in four aces and two digs. Werry registered six kills.

Against Bosse, Voegel had three aces and eight assists, while Emma Werry had four digs. Bender and Jordan Werry each had three kills.

By Steve Joos A three-set win and a second place invitational finish.

This seems like a pattern for the Mount Vernon volleyball team.

The Lady Wildcats battled back from an 8-1 deficit in the third set Tuesday night to close out visiting Central 25-19, 2510, 25-21 and then finished second in Saturday’s New Albany Invitational tournament, losing to the hosts 22-25, 25-19, 2521 after beating Lanesville 25-8, 25-12 and then topping Central 26-28, 25-23, and 25-20.

Coach Andi Allford felt that both the first and third sets Tuesday were battles for her team.

“We needed to focus (in that third game),” Allford said.

“Our girls didn’t look like our girls at all. They were very strong players and we’re not playing our game yet.”

Allford said that the team will have a long road ahead of it if the Lady Wildcats continue to have trouble focusing in individual sets.

Jacey Ritzert was the big difference, putting the ball down offensively for the Lady Cats, but there was a lot of inconsistency throughout the match.

Ritzert was at the line when Mount Vernon scored seven unanswered points to square the third set at 11-11. The Lady Bears were able to reclaim the lead, but Mount Vernon hung around until they went on a run which turned a 19-17 deficit into a 21-20 lead.

The Lady Wildcats then scored the last four points to pull out the win.

“You can’t look good all the way around when you’re not connecting,” Allford said. “In the second game, we got in a comfortable position, so there’s a little different energy when we’re more comfortable.”

Ritzert and Olivia Hopper each had 10 kills for Mount Vernon against Central, while Megan Martin registered 25 assists, helping Ritzert with the attacks.

Sarah Duckworth pulled up 12 digs, while Brittany Wallis turned in three aces. Alexis Nall and Morgan Keck each registered two blocks.

Despite the win, Allford thought that her team took a step back from the first week of the seasons when they faced the Lady Bears.

“We had too much of an individual game tonight,” Allford said, “We need to have more of a team game.”

Whiffleball tourney is success The Scheller, the Meliffs and Dylan Krohn all teamed up to win the St. Wendel Athletic Club’s Whiffle ball tournament recently.

“They were unstoppable,” Krohn said of the team, which finished first in the eight-team tourney held at the Athletic Club field. “We were relaxing, stretching and watching (the tournament).”

The team has been playing together since last summer, Krohn said of the four-man team, which consisted of Nick Scheller, Keith Scheller, Jared Meliff and Jake Meliff.

Second place went to the team of Brandon Lyke, Alyssa Like, K.D. Patton and Josh Stoneberger, while the thirdplace squad consisted of Charlie Grimes, Ryan Neumann, Derek Reidford and Josh Schmitt.

The St. Wendel Athletic Club also held its annual Jason Will Memorial Washer Tournament, which drew 17 teams.

The team of Matt Schapker and Chris Lilly won the washer tourney, followed by Justin Esche and Chad Edwards in second place. Third place went to the duo of Rod Will and Jeff Will.

North Posey girls’ soccer gains wins, boys gain experience

By Steve Joos North Posey has a very young and inexperienced boys’ soccer team this season.

And the visiting Gibson Southern Titans had the kind of a team that could really take advantage of that situation.

Caleb Drennan scored two goals, while Ian DeFelice and Trevor Bitter each put in a goal and an assist in Gibson Southern’s 5-0 win over the Vikings last week.

“We played probably the best we could have played I think,” Coach Andrew Hines said. “We’re young, we’re inexperienced— we’re very, very young. We have three or four freshmen who played a lot of minutes, maybe three that played the entire game. We have lots of sophomores and juniors, we’re just young and in kind of a rebuilding year.”

And they were up against the state’s seventh-ranked Class 1A boys’ team, one which had a number of players back from a team which just missed going to the state finals on penalty kicks in the Regional championship game last season.

With all that experience, it was to nobody’s surprise that the Titans were able to take advantage of the younger Vikings.

Drennan started things off with a shot from just inside the box four minutes into the contest, putting Gibson Southern up 1-0. Hunter DeWeese struck 15 minutes later to make it 2-0, a score which stood at the half.

Drennan’s first goal was a sloppy one, Hines said, adding that if a team is giving up those kind of goals, they’re going to have trouble containing the other squad defensively.

“I think there’s a couple of good players on that team (Gibson Southern),” Hines said. “I don’t think there’s anyone who beat us. We kind of got the game off on a bad foot with a sloppy goal and that kind of set the tone.”

Indeed, Drennan’s sloppy first goal was bookended by a shot with 23:45 left in the game that closed out the Titans’ scoring.

In between, some other Gibson Southern players also shot up the greener Vikings in addition to DeWeese. DeFelice nailed his goal two minutes into the second half, and then Bittner connected with just over four minutes elapsed after the intermission.

Mason Mockabee and Owen Dick had the other assists for Gibson Southern.

The Vikings had a number of one-on-ones in their season opener at Bosse and there weren’t as many against Gibson Southern, which was something North Posey worked on in practice, Hines said.

But there was that sloppy goal four minutes into the game.

And those are the kind of things teams like Gibson Southern take advantage of.

What went wrong for the North Posey girls’ soccer team in the first half of last week’s game with visiting Gibson Southern?

What didn’t go wrong?

“We weren’t passing,” Lady Vikings coach Scott Buttrum said after North Posey dropped a 4-0 decision to the Lady Titans.

“The whole team wasn’t passing. We didn’t pass. It should have been a 0-0 tie at halftime and it wasn’t. That’s the bottom line.”

Nor did the Lady Vikings win any of the 50-50 balls in the first half. That kept the ball on the North Posey side of the field and the Lady Titans cashed in big time.

Gibson Southern’s Karen Goedde scored the first two goals of the contest and that put the Lady Titans in front 2-0.

Cynthia Adler helped out on one of those goals and later closed out the scoring for Gibson Southern, while Cydney Mosby scored the other Lady Titan tally.

North Posey played a better game defensively in the second half, but was still unable to get the ball in the back of the net.

“We were lost in the first half,” Buttrum said. “We’ve got a bunch of work to do.”

The game marked the second time North Posey was shut out after winning their opener

with Mount Vernon.

The news was much better on Tuesday as the Lady Vikings claimed their second win of

the season, a 3-1 win at South Spencer.

North Posey goal scorers were Celeste Hill, Loryn Willis, and Kendra Brandenstein.

Being active outdoors makes kids more successful in school If your children are like most kids, they are spending more time indoors than ever before. A 2010 Kaiser Family Foundation study found that children ages 8 to 18 engage in over seven hours of electronic media each day.

Some experts warn that all that time indoors can take a heavy toll on children’s health, contributing to attention difficulties, hyperactivity, obesity, a diminished use of senses and even a disconnect from the real world.

“American children are losing a vital aspect of healthy development as they spend less time riding bikes, climbing trees or doing much of anything outdoors,” says Kathy McGlauflin, Director of Project Learning Tree (PLT), a non-profit organization that trains teachers to incorporate environmental education into school curricula. “Today, children spend most of their time indoors -largely because that’s where all the electrical sockets are.”

According to McGlauflin, teaching children to understand and value nature is vital to raising the next generation of environmental stewards and even to Mount Vernon senior Jevin Redman makes an easy improve children’s perfornight of his Harrison opponent at No. 1 Singles. Photo mance at school.

by Dave Koch Here are some fun ways to

cure nature deficit disorder: • Brainstorm with your children’s teachers and principal about ways the school can incorporate learning in the outdoors and provide a healthier environment for students and staff that promotes ecological sustainability, reduces waste and teaches students to be environmental stewards.

For ideas, visit www.greenschools.org.

• Have your child help sort the recycling at home. Visit the recycling center to see how it all works.

• Talk to your child’s teacher about applying for a Project Learning Tree GreenWorks! grant to help get started on building a school or community garden, starting a recycling program or restoring a nearby stream. Since 1992, PLT has distributed nearly $1 million to fund 1,000 environmental service-learning projects in communities nationwide.

Apply by September 30 by visiting www.plt.org/ApplyForaGrant.

• Encourage your child to adopt a local tree and get familiar with it. Revisit this tree on a regular basis Ross Canada, at No. 2 Singles easily beat his opponent throughout the seasons, reduring the Harrison matchup on Tuesday. Photo by cording observations in a Dave Koch journal.
