By Dave Pearce Full time ambulance service throughout Posey County continued to be a point of interest and perhaps even contention at this week’s Posey County Commissioner’s meeting. Some northern Posey County residents were joined at Tuesday’s meeting by Marrs Township Fire Department representative Larry Schenk as a discussion continued on the recent shuffle of ambulance service between the two stations. Church Pearison, representing residents of northern Posey County, asked the commissioners what

played in the decision to take the ambulance out of Poseyville for even part time. Another northern Posey resident Greg Foster appeared and told the commissioners that he had suffered a heart attack at the corner of Highway 165 and High School Road and had it not been for the prompt response of the ambulance service, he indicated he would not be there addressing the group. Cynthiana resident Rex Yarbor was also on hand to express his belief that the county needs to strongly reconsider the decision not to have the ambulance in Poseyville full time.

Pearison indicated a time line since 1975, when funeral directors discontinued ambulance service to Posey County. He said that in Octo-

Technology updates are OK’d By Dave Pearce While the discussion of the ambulance in Poseyville devoured most of the first hour of the Posey County Commissioners’ meeting on Tuesday, the discussion eventually gave way to talk of bringing Posey County “up to snuff” technologically. While hearing members of the head table’s words has always been a problem at the Hovey House meeting room, the Posey County Commis-

Football gesture praised by board By Pam Robinson It’s news that bears repeating: Mount Vernon High School football coach Paul Maier, his coaching staff and his team deserve the recognition bestowed on them for their great display of character and sportsmanship at the Friday, October 15, home game against Jasper High School. Superintendent Tom Kopatich commended Maier, the staff and players with a viewing at the Monday, October 18, meeting of the Mount Vernon School Board of the YouTube video that captured the event. Prepared by Jasper as a tribute to the entire Mount Vernon football club, the video features a jubilant Zach

Beckman, Jasper’s “Z-Man,” spiking the ball as he runs 59 yards to score a touchdown against Mount Vernon. The moment was heartwarming for the Jasper community since Beckman is a special player with Down’s syndrome. The touchdown is the highlight of his football career. The video is still available for viewing at www.youtube.com when Zach Beckman is entered in the search box. At the Monday night board meeting, Superintendent Kopatich said he had already received over 30 emails celebrating Maier, his coaching staff and team.

By Pam Robinson Once again last Thursday evening, New Harmony resident Gary Owen sought to change the New Harmony Town Council’s decision denying him a sewer fee waiver for property at 1115 Linwood Avenue. Owen brought photos of another resident’s structure excluded from the sewer fee that he says is similar to the one on his own property. After brief discussion among Owen, council and Town Attorney Nathan Maudlin, Maudlin addressed Owen: “You’re saying that your situation is similar to this one here that you brought the pictures of, and this person was granted a waiver and you were not. Is that a correct statement of your issue?” Owen agreed. “And what I’m saying,” Maudlin answered, “is that the board made a finding that this was not an improved lot because of that structure not being permanent whereas in your situation, they made a finding that your lot is improved because the structure is permanent.” He answered Owen that the finding was made based upon personal knowledge. Councilwoman Karen Walker explained that every lot and every building in question were visited in over a year of research. Walker said there were discrepancies in the way sewer fees had been charged and council was seeking to make charges fair to everyone. “I’m just going to be up front and tell you I’m going to pursue legal action,” Owen responded. Councilwoman Walker acknowledged that Owen had told council his intentions at last month’s council meeting, and council was expecting legal action. Discussion ended when Owen left, saying, “This is a big sideshow circus. All you need is a tent for the bearded lady and a bear on a bicycle.” In other business: •The board granted sewer fee waivers to Historic New Harmony for a number of unimproved lots on Arthur, Church, North and Tavern streets. It was agreed sewer fees applied to 409 Church Street. •Renetta Baer presented the board with a plan for housing and sterilizing feral cats in New Harmony. The plan is under review. •The board named David VanLaningham and David Cartlidge to the Maple Hill Cemetery Board. •Greg Wilson was thanked for putting in the flagpole and replacing the flag when necessary (three times so far) at the Maple Hill Cemetery. Wilson performs these acts of kindness at his own expense. •It was announced that New Harmony is one of three towns chosen by the State of Indiana to have an updated inventory of street trees next May and June. •The street department asks for patience in the collection of leaves, hampered by the dry weather conditions. In addition, it was announced that the restrooms at Murphy Park will close again this year in Novem-

CHURCH CHURCH HURCH

JL Equipment supports Posey County Community Foundation By Dave Pearce The Posey County Community Foundation received a donation this week that might get the interest of a lot of area homeowners. Poseyville’s JL Equipment Company, Inc., donated a new 22-horse ExMark Quest 48-inch Zero Turn lawnmower for the auction that will take place on October 28. Dave and Jane Reising, Poseyville residents and owners of JL Equipment Co., Inc., indicated they had looked at the list of items to be auctioned off for the worthwhile benefit and thought they could be of help, as well. “We want to give back to the community what the community has given to us,” Dave Reising said of the gift. “There are three other implement dealers in Posey County and for a cause as worthwhile as this, we want to challenge others to step up to the plate and make contributions as well.” JL Equipment Company, Inc., is one of the Tri State’s most successful Case-IH dealers serving Indiana, Illinois, and Kentucky. JL Equipment is a family-owned business started in 1971 with two locations and 50 employees. The company is located in Southern In-

diana along I-64 at Exit 12 in Poseyville as well as Highway 41 North in Princeton. “I was not really familiar with the Posey County Community Foundation until our daughter got married last year,” Jane Reising commented. “Her best friend had died a couple of months before the wedding and instead of putting favors on the table, we made a donation to the foundation.” “We put a note on each table that indicated that instead of a favor on the table, we were making a donation in care of Katie Kanowski,” Reising said. What a wonderful thing the foundation for the county. We want to do whatever we can do to help them.” Reising indicated that had talked to the girl’s parents and had asked their favorite charity and they had indicated that it would be the Posey County Community Foundation. Since then, Reising has become a little more versed on the local foundation and the many local causes it supports. They also learned that all of the money stays in Posey County. Community foundations bring together people who care about their communities.

They are independent, volunteer-driven, charitable organizations that aim to strengthen their communities by facilitating philanthropy, by partnering with donors to build permanent endowments and other funds from which they support community projects, and by providing leadership on issues of broad community concern. Community foundations are broadbased, volunteer-driven local organizations. Because their view of community issues and priorities is independent and crosses many sectors, community foundations have an opportunity for collaborative leadership that transcends “special interests” and reflects the interests of the community at large. Founded on trust, community foundations help donors achieve their charitable goals and invest financial capital in their communities. But they also stimulate and nurture the relationships that link us to others and that create our sense of belonging to a community. Social scientists call these vital connections “social capital” and have found that they are linked to many measures of community and individual well-being. Community foundations, experienced in building financial capital for their communities, also have a leadership role in building social capital — the glue that holds communities together. The mission of the Posey County Community Foundation is to promote philanthropy at all levels, to build and maintain a permanent collection of charitable funds that benefit the entire community, and to serve as

a trustworthy partner and leader in shaping effective responses to community needs. The Posey County Community Foundation administers 78 charitable funds established by individuals, families, businesses, civic groups and agencies to improve the quality of life in Posey County. Founded in 1992, the foundation is a charitable organization formed to strengthen the community by awarding grants to local nonprofits and scholarships to students, by bringing individuals together to address community needs, and by offering personalized charitable gift planning services to our donors. The Posey County Community Foundation, a member of the Community Foundation Alliance, Inc., will hold a benefit auction on Oct. 28, 2010, at the 4-H Community Center on Indiana 69 south of New Harmony. All proceeds from the For Good For Ever Auction will be donated to the foundation’s Administrative Endowment Fund. The doors will open at 5 p.m. The evening begins with a catered dinner and entertainment from Clif the Drifter. The silent auction will start at 6:30 p.m., followed by the live auction. Tickets are $25 per person. A complete list of all auction items, along with ticket information, is at www.poseycommunityfoundation.org/auction. For more information or to get tickets for the fundraiser, please contact Posey County Community Foundation Director Julie Eickhoff at 812-838-0288.

Sermon of the Week: Politics, Religion and Her By: Pastor Matthew Watson Mt. Vernon General Baptist Church My professors in college told me not to quote Wikipedia the free online dictionary. I’m going to go ahead and take my chances here. “Politics, Religion and Her is a 1996 album by country musician Sammy Kershaw. The album launched several charting singles and itself charted at #17 on Top Country Albums. Charting songs included “Vidalia, Meant to Be, and Fit to be Tied Down.” The album’s title lyrics remind me of a subject I want to expound upon. Tis the season for politics. And politics inevitably leads to political candidates running ads. These ads saturate the time slots between your favorite sport event, drama or sit-com on television. Even the politically uninterested find it hard to miss. Tis the season for politics. Politics inevitably wander their way around to religion. What are your religious views? What are my religious views? Is it fair to ask about religious views? How important are religious views? Which religious label do you accept? How do you practice your religion? How often to you practice your religion? Do you believe in organized religion? Do you believe in disorganized religion (you’re supposed to smile here)!? What do you believe? Patrick Lencioni writes business books in parabolic form. His book The Five Dyfunctions of Team is quite interesting. At one point in the parable one character makes a profoundly truthful statement: “politics is telling people what you think they want to hear. Principle is telling people what you actually believe.” Politics leads to religion. Religion is about what I believe. Catholic theologian Michael Novak said: “What you believe makes a difference at every level.” Theologian GK Chesterson said: “There’s nothing more interesting than a person’s worldview.” What do you believe? Or better yet, in whom do you believe? Christianity at its best understands not as a religion but as a relationship. Religion is about an exterior action that meets a certain standard. There are certain practices that one participates to be religious. Someone you know may have “found religion.”

The hope is that what you see is a result of what you don’t see: something within. The hope is that what you describe as religion seen on the outside is a result of something more deep and profound on the inside. The New Testament of the Bible, and yes I evoked the Bible in this conversation, is largely built on the precept that powerful authentic lasting action comes from within. The Biblical idea of Christianity is built on the person of Christ and thus a person constitutes a personal relationship as opposed to a religion. The meek and mild Jesus sort of gets blown out of the water in Matthew 25: 24-26. Jesus is engaging in a conversation with socio-religio-political leaders of his day. He firmly notes: “You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel. Woe to you, teachers of the law…you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and selfindulgence. Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside will be clean.” The point Jesus is making is that guides need to discern big from small concerns. In order to be an effective guide you must know the difference between a “gnat and a camel.” The most educated and status-oriented people of first century Jerusalem, according to Jesus, were acting hypocritical. And Jesus must have thought that they needed some direct rebuke. Other places Jesus is indirect in his rebuke or simply loving people into change. But not with these guides—Jesus is painfully direct. Jesus goes on to use a cup/dish metaphor. Cleanliness is a more large issue than what you see (politics). Cleanliness is an issue of what you do not see (principle). Politics and religion: meet her. Pollsters say church attendance has done a one-hundredeighty degree turn in the past forty years. Something like 8 out of 10 people attended church then and something like 8 out of 10 don’t attend church now. I’m not saying that to anger you if you’re on the outside looking in, this is just the fact. Church attendance is not prioritized as quite the priority is once was. I do not want to presume upon all of the reasons for waning church attendance here. And quite frankly our church family is blessed

to have good participation. But nonetheless, the statistic begs the question: why? Perhaps our guides focus more on religion than relationship. Perhaps our guides focus more on contract than covenant. Perhaps our guides focus more on self-indulgence than self-surrender. Perhaps our guides focus more on politics than principle. Perhaps they feel like they have too. I’m not sitting in the seat of judgment here. I’m just saying (as the teens say). Perhaps the remedy is in a new idea rather than an old idea: participation in a Bible-believing church. Maybe you can find a church who emphasizes a relationship with Jesus Christ of the Bible? Bible book Ephesians 5: 25-27, 33: “Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless…This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church.” May our concept of politics and religion drive us back to a place we once come, the original her, the church. And may we once again nurture her through our participation not because we have too but because we want too. The Lord will rise up people of character who will guide us based not on politics but principle; not on religion but on relationship. Work, pray, live, and vote with her firmly in mind. Pastor Matt has a passion for you to know Jesus. If you don’t have a local church to call home, we welcome you to Mount Vernon General Baptist Church any Sunday at 10:30 am.

RETROSPECT RETROSPEC Out and About I wonder if anyone can remember it being this dry before. As I drive through the country side the dust is so thick in the fields while farmers are working the soil that you can hardly see. Maybe someday we might get a rain. Saturday, October 23, Wayne T. Wiggins said he saw very few drops of rainfall. Then, Sunday at 10:15am, as I got to church I saw very few drops of rain just for a moment. Most all of the grass has turned brown from the dry weather. Monday, October 11 was Columbus Day in Canada and Tuesday, October 12 was Columbus Day in the United States. Monday Betty and Jesse Montgomery were here to visit me. Also, Steve Butler and later on John Webb were here to visit. I always enjoy visitors. Tuesday, October 12 Janet called me and Bonnie Sue came to visit. I later one visited with Jay Davis, John Straw, and Don Steirly. Janet called me later on. This is also the day they brought Billy Ray home from the hospital after his open heart surgery. Wednesday, October 13 was the GE retiree’s dinner party at the Bayeux Grill. About 55 retirees were there

to enjoy the dinner and a visit. That afternoon I visited Mac Reynolds and then I went to four cemeteries before coming back home. I also talked to Janet on the phone.

Janet called me and said her son Bradley passed through Poseyville on I-64 on his way with others to go to Louisville, Ky. for a meeting. Friday, both Bonnie and Janet called. I was also at Bonnie and Jim’s home for the evening meal and visitation with families. Saturday, I went to Owensville to see my sister-in-law Lorena and we went to Princeton to eat at Long John Silver’s. We enjoy their fish very much. Lorena enjoyed her daughter and son-in-law Carole and Don Warren who came from Hammond, Ind. to help Lorena and the other two daughters, Jan and Anne celebrate her 91st birthday which was October 19. Sunday, October 24 was cloudy and 74 degrees at 9:00am and was 80 degrees at 2 p.m. I was at church at Poseyville Christian and we had a good attendance and had a good message. We always enjoy having visitors, as we had several on this day. The

Al’s Place celebrates 30th anniversary By Valerie Werkmeister From Beehives and Bouffants to bowl cuts and adding the Nike swoosh design on freshly-shaved heads, Alice Simmons has seen and done it all. For the last three decades, she has seen haircut fads come and go… and even come again. It’s just all in a day’s work for this Poseyville native. Thirty years ago, on Election Day Alice opened her hair salon in Sam Beeson’s old barbershop building on Main Street in Poseyville. She learned to cut hair at the West Side Beauty College, which has since closed. Her first challenge as a beautician? Convincing the older gentlemen to trust a woman to cut their hair. Times have certainly changed since then. Back then, women seldom styled their own hair. It was cus-

tomary to come in once a week for a wash, dry, set and style. To this day, Simmons still has about 30 customers who come in once a week for this same process. Simmons spent nine years in that location before moving to the Little Yellow Hat building, located behind Hirsch’s. She was the only stylist other than her nail technician at the time, Nina Anthony. In 1995, she moved to her current location at 64 W. Main Street. She added two stylists: Leeanna Wassmer, Jo Sollman and Tricia Schmitt was also hired as the nail technician. Sollman and Schmitt are still with Simmons today. Many will also remember that Simmons’ mother, Flora Mae Hopf, served as her receptionist for several years. Two more stylists, Danielle Johnson and Decia Dunn, complete the

staff. When her son, Jason, was young he also helped out around the shop. “He would help take the rollers out of the ladies’ hair and they would tip him 25 cents or something. They just got a big kick out of him doing that,” Simmons said. When asked what the best part of her job is, Johnson replied, “I really enjoy the people. I love to come to work. I never dread it.” The entire staff stays current with the latest tips and trends by attending training sessions or classes at least twice a year. Simmons says she also stays current by learning new things from “her girls”. “They help motivate me and come up with good ideas to keep me going,” Simmons said. Anyone wanting to stay on target with the latest hair trend will be anxious to

know this tip: big hair and bangs are coming back. (Say hello again to the late-80s) Sollman did leave in 2000 and opened a shop in her home while her children were young. She returned to work for Simmons just two months ago. She acknowledged that spiral perms were one of the hot hair trends of the 80s. Dimensional color is one of the most popular hair style requests today. Dunn also left to work at Shannon Aleksander’s in Evansville only to return again. She appreciated her time at a busy salon to gain valuable experience. She specializes in body waxing and enjoys doing special occasion hair styles. Perhaps it’s the camaraderie that keeps them coming back. They agreed Simmons is a helpful, inspirational person and they enjoy working as a team. Schmitt is the only staff member to occasionally receive a negative review, which ironically serves as a compliment too. “Every now and then, I’ll see a husband out in the community who will complain to me that their wives can’t cook or clean after getting their nails done out of fear that it will ruin their nails,” Schmitt joked. Schmitt is also known for giving the best foot massage in Poseyville. In addition to thanking the community for their support over the past 30 years, Simmons credits her husband, Richard, for helping with maintenance or construction in the building as well as being very supportive. They plan to hold an open house celebration on November 2, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Al’s Place. The public is invited to stop in anytime during the day to enjoy soup, refreshments and participate in drawings. Also, during the month of October, the stylists will recognize Breast Cancer Awareness by “Cutting for a Cure”. Ten percent of the proceeds generated this month will go to the North Posey Relay for Life. Call 874-3118 to set up an appointment.

October dangerous month for teen car crashes

Eric May State Farm Agent The third week of October is National Teen Driver Safety Week, designated by Congress in 2007 to raise awareness about the tragedy of teen vehicle crashes – the leading cause of death for U.S. teens. The week serves as a time set aside for parents, teens, educators and legislators to shine a spotlight on teen driver safety and ramp up conversations about solutions for the high rate of car crashes involving teens.

Data from State Farm® shows that October continues to register the most claims by teen drivers across the United States and portions of Canada. One in four states show October with the most crashes, and in 70% of the states October is one of the top three months for teen crash claims While promoting teen driver safety requires a yearround commitment, the fall time frame is critically important. At the same time of year teens return to school, participate in after-school

activities and manage busy schedules, they often are faced with new driving situations like darkness and inclement weather. This combination of factors may be the reason October is one of the riskiest months of the year for new drivers. Teens have said they are nervous about driving, even after they get their driver’s license. Although they are happy to have passed their driving test, they don’t feel completely prepared to navigate all driving conditions. Parents need to remember

this, and continue to help their young driver practice in a range of settings like heavy traffic, darkness, rain and wind. Don’t let them be alone the first time they are faced with a new, challenging driving situation. As an auto insurance agent, I hear personally about the needless tragedy of teen car crashes, especially during this time of year. I invite you to go to statefarm.com/teendriving for information about keeping teen drivers safe on our roadways.

Mount Vernon’s Carynn Koch attends Youth Leadership Forum Every summer, hundreds of students from across the nation participate in the National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine (NYLF). In multiple cities around the country, scholars gather to explore the medical field. Through lectures, group discussions, clinical visits, and hands-on activities, the students learn the ins and

outs of the medical fields as a profession and as an area of the government. Over the years, there have been three students from Mt. Vernon who have attended the conference; the most recent being Carynn Koch, now a senior at Mt. Vernon High School. During the summer of 2010, Koch traveled to the Washington, D.C.

forum held on the campus of Georgetown University. “NYLF is an unbelievable experience that has prepared me for what is in my near future. I spent ten days with hundreds of peers who have the same goals and interests as I do, and we learned just as much from each other as we did the speakers,” reported Carynn.

The National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine gives the students many different views on the medical field and leadership in general. Speakers vary from military leaders, to medical students, and to surgeons. Students were even able to learn from surgeons while they performed surgeries. “All three hundred scholars were able to sit in an auditorium and view a knee replacement operation fed to us through a live web cam,” recalls Koch, “You just don’t get to see that type of thing every day.” The ten-day conference

packs the students’ minds full of information, but still allows the students to enjoy the city that they may be experiencing for the first time. Koch said, “I chose to attend the Washington, D.C. conference because I would be there over the Fourth of July. The conference did a great job of balancing the educational experiences with a few sightseeing opportunities. We traveled to all of the national monuments, and got to watch the Fourth of July fireworks display from the National Harbor. They even treated the students to a farewell dinner

dance on a yacht!” The National Youth Forum on Medicine prepares students today for what the medical field may be tomorrow. Hundreds of students around the country come out of the NYLF experience with the contacts and information that will give them a head start in their future endeavors. “Everyone spoke to us with respect and willingness to share advice. They treated us like their colleagues, because they know that we are the future doctors of American and they want to be succeeded by the best!”

Cargill is United Way Pacesetter

Bamberger welcomes new attorney Trisha Shah

The Cargill grain facility in Mt. Vernon, Indiana, is part of Cargill AgHorizons’ Southern Indiana Farm Service Group located in the tri-state area. Cargill has a dedicated team of 30 employees working at the Mt. Vernon location. Cargill has been a long-time supporter of the community, including a strong supporter of the Posey County United Way and this year’s Pacesetter program. Cargill knows that their continued success depends in part on a strong community. Corporate responsibility at Cargill includes their commitment to work in partnership with organizations like United Way and its agencies to help bring measurable and meaningful improvements to the communities where their employees and customer live and work. Cargill AgHorizons’ vision is to help farmers prosper, and their campaign with United Way is one way they demonstrate their commitment to serve, a core value of their business. Cargill in Mt. Vernon is proud to join Cargill’s national United Way campaign, which is celebrating a 60-year anniversary of organizing United Way employee giving campaigns, and it continues to give their local employees an opportunity to contribute to the important projects United Way supports right here in Southern Indiana. Every dollar pledged to United Way is matched by Cargill’s local organization, as well as by their corporate office. This allows employee contributions to be tripled. Cargill offers many kinds of solutions to meet the needs of grain producers including advisory services, crop insurance, grain contracts with risk management solutions, and grain facilities with safe operations. Cargill touches lives in more ways than one might imagine: - from providing ingredient solutions to food manufacturers for formula that helps infants grow, to icing on birthday cakes, to zerocalorie sweetener in your coffee, to steaks at your favorite restaurant, to eco-friendly,

The law firm of Bamberger, Foreman, Oswald & Hahn, LLP is pleased to announce the addition of Trisha Shah as an Associate to the firm. She will practice in the area of litigation and family law. Shah is another success story for Bamberger’s law school recruiting program. She was a summer clerk for the firm in the summer of 2009, one year before she graduated from law school. She went back to Indiana University School of Law (in Indianapolis) last fall with a job offer waiting for her once she finished her final exams. Now that she has passed the bar exam and has been offi-

bio-based foam in couches and mattresses. They collaborate with customers to create better products and services, streamline supply chains, save energy, reduce costs and move goods to every corner of the planet. They help farmers get higher yields from fewer acres, and store crops so they have greater flexibility in marketing their harvest. They give back to the communities where they do business through continuous efforts to improve nutrition, health and education, and protect natural resources. While their business has always been based on helping nourish people, they’ve now refined ocean freight transportation and supply chain management to an art form. For example, they connected a Japanese producer of premium eggs with an Indiana farmer who grows corn for chicken feed to the producer’s exact specifications. The Mt. Vernon facility ships grain via barge, train and truck to ports worldwide. From their modest roots in the United States’ Midwest, Cargill has grown to be a global leader in food and agriculture. Their strength is their ability to connect expertise around the world. They have 131,000 employees in 66 countries. Cargill’s purpose is to be the global leader in nourishing people. Cargill employees are proud to support United Way. Keith Spurgeon, chairman of the 2010 United Way of Posey County campaign announced today that the campaign drive has reached 28% of its goal of $620,000. He urged everyone to make a contribution to the Posey County campaign. “Your contributions stay here to provide services to the people of Posey County. The United Way of Posey County is about all of us working together to make our community a better place to live for all of us and our families.” Larry Williams, store manager of McKim’s IGA in Mount Vernon, and the McKim’s IGA employees invite all of Posey County to

McKim’s on Saturday, October 30th from 10:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. for United Way Day. Larry said “Like past years, we are going to have a cookout and have local community leaders carrying out groceries and asking for tips, all of which will be donated to this year’s United Way Campaign. All proceeds from the cookout will also be donated as McKim's IGA is donating the products used.” Also during October, if McKim’s customers turn in their store receipts, McKim’s will donate 1% of the receipt amount (except for alcohol and tobacco products, taxes, and office services) to the United Way of Posey County campaign. Elizabeth Baier, executive director of the United Way of Posey County, said “Please turn your receipt in before leaving the store and help in making sure services are available for the Posey County community.” Contributions help to fund United Way programs such as a local Gifts In Kind program and Information and Referral Assistance as well as 21 local agencies receiving funds this year that provide services to the people of Posey County. New services in Posey County are 2-1-1, the easy-to-remember number to call for access to information about resources and assistance in Posey County, and the prescription drug discount program. Keith Spurgeon said that thanks to the community spirit and generosity of local business people, there will be fundraisers for the United Way of Posey County campaign. At The Feedmill Restaurant in Poseyville on October 26, 10% of the proceeds on all meals and non-alcoholic beverages served between 2 P.M. and 9 P.M. will be donated to United Way. On Thursday, October 28, the St. Philips’s Inn, 11200 Upper Mount Vernon Road, will donate 10% of all sales that day to United Way. Contributions may be sent to the United Way of Posey County at P.O. Box 562, Mt. Vernon, IN 47620. For more information or to get involved, call 838-3637, or email to uwposey@sbcglobal.net.

cially sworn in, she is settled into the firm and ready to practice for Bamberger. “We are so pleased to have Trisha join the Bamberger family,” said Laura Scott,

a partner at Bamberger and the firm’s recruiting director. “She is a great addition to our litigation team and will undoubtedly be an asset to our Family Law section.” Bamberger, Foreman, Oswald & Hahn, LLP was organized in 1959, and is the largest law firm in Southwest Indiana. For more than 50 years, the firm has incorporated cutting edge technology and education to represent the legal practice areas of business law, banking and financial institution law, healthcare law, litigation, private client services, family law, employment law and real estate and construction law.

OPINION

North Posey band proof that hard work does pay off I have always been a big proponent of extracurricular activities in schools. I believe that there is nothing that accurately simulates life better than extracurricular activities. TRUTH... There are so many lessons STRANGER that can be learned at a very THAN early age by these activities. FICTION You learn right away that BY DAVE life is not fair. No matter how PEARCE you cut it, in the case of a gifted athlete or a gifted musician, the “not as gifted” individual may have to practice three times as hard to be only half as good. In the case of athletics, you may be forced to go against someone who is six inches taller and outweighs you by 70 pounds. Welcome to life 101. You also learn that no matter how hard you work individually, if the entire team doesn’t work as hard as you do, chances are the team will not be successful. Welcome to life 102. You will learn quickly that while you may do everything the correct way, there are people who will cut corners yet when the day is done, it can appear that they have achieved the same result as you. That’s life 103. You will learn that there are people who not

only will cut corners, but will outright cheat on their responsibilities. You can let them get by with it or you can make someone aware of it. Unfortunately, either way, there are usually ramifications. You are the one who has to decide which direction you are going to go. At the end of the day, you are the one who has to be able to live with yourself and be able to sleep at night with a clear conscience. That is life 104. All these lessons in life have been a byproduct of many nights of driving home through Wadesville and past North Posey High School at 9 p.m. Often the lights are still turned on at the playing fields. Several months ago, I learned just how much action the fields of North Posey actually get. Each time I would be driving home late at night and the lights were on, inevitably I would drive on down to the school to see what was going on. Each time, one group or another was practicing. But as many of the fall seasons have come to a close, I think it merits special attention that even though many of the athletic teams

Act of kindness highlight on athletic field To the editor: I have attended football games for the past four years at Mount Vernon High School. I go mainly to support my daughter who is a Dance Cat. Last Friday night (Oct.15) I witnessed the most impressive play I have seen, yes, even surpassing the sectional win a few years back. We were being rather soundly beaten by Jasper, it was toward the end of the fourth quarter, and the tone of the crowd made me pay closer attention to what was going on, on the field. I’m sorry not to have seen the entire play, but as the game caught my attention, I noticed our players obviously holding back while a Jasper player trailed only by his own teammates made a touchdown. That player was tiny and didn’t run as well as most players, so I was left to

assume he probably had Downs Syndrome or some other special need. Both sides of the audience cheered the touchdown. What a touching moment. I want to commend Coach Paul Maier and every member of the 2010 Mount Vernon football team for that very humbling humanitarian action. Yes, it made the loss a little higher on the scoreboard, but you gave a lesson in true sportsmanship, compassion and love to everyone at that game. Those young men on both football teams will remember that play long after most of the others have faded. It was, without a doubt, the best game I’ve seen Mount Vernon play, made so in the last few minutes of the last quarter. You made Mount Vernon proud! Nancy Hasting

Why tear down a historic building under renovation Letter to the Editor: Please contact the Mayor and Building Commissioner and request that the Wade building at 114 West Second St. in Mount Vernon not be demolished. It is in the city’s financial interest to have buildings on their tax roles not vacant land. Why would the city involve itself in a building that is structurally sound and not a danger to the public especially when the owner has spent thousands to ready it for a new roof and windows? If the state building permit was not an issue this building and two others would be finished. Why would they be willing to work with me on only two of the three properties we are working on? What is different about the third? The first time they requested work done, they asked that the west wall be tuck pointed. This was done immediately. A new front door was installed to facilitate work on the inside. It is not sensible to install a new front window or side windows until the new roof is installed. Colors have already been picked out. A building permit was obtained 11/30/09. Work was not able to be started at that time. We were told the building permit was good until the project was complete. On June 28, 2010 the city was sent a letter that work would begin within two weeks. I missed a meeting June 5, 2010 to give them an update. Days before construction was to begin we were told a state building permit may be needed. On July 29, 2010 we promised the city building commissioner that the building would be complete by 9/30/10. We did not realize the slow pace of the state staff. They have been helpful but appear to be overworked. After four phone calls, we finally reached the state contact 8/5/10 and sent him photos and a write-up of the project. Whether the state needed a permit depended on if they considered a new roof a structural change. The state

did not advise on this issue until 9/16/10. In the meanwhile, we removed all debris from the building readying it for the new roof. Many thousand of dollars have been spent in the last three months. A structural engineer inspected the building 8/31/10 and documented how the roof should be built. This information was forwarded to the state 9/3/10. They replied 9/16/10 to the structural engineer. We were not copied. We did not obtain a copy of their reply until 9/24/10. On 10/6/10 an Application for Construction Design Release was submitted. They are holding it pending needed drawings. The state had photos and a detailed write-up by the structural engineer. Drafts of the drawings have been received and will be sent this week. A neighboring landowner has approached me twice to buy my property. They asked me three times whether the city had been after me to make improvements. My building does not look any worse than the one next to me. It would be hard to believe the neighbors would want a vacant lot only good for equipment storage as their neighbor. A fenced in storage lot would not be a pretty sight. This property will not be sold. One only has to look a few minutes to find a building with more issues than the Wade building. The city puts itself at risk if it does not give equal protection to all landowners. It is not legal to just go after properties that someone brings to the city’s attention. Of the things that have been under my control since the end of June, I have done everything possible to expedite this process. The city needs to be patient a little longer. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call. Sincerely, M. Christine Babcock

are done for the year, the lights of the baseball field will still be on for one group of North Posey High School students in the coming week. You see, during the hottest weather we had this summer and fall, the Marching Vikings were on the field night after night practicing their music and their steps to try and achieve success in their area of competition. Often, long after the athletic teams had gone home, the marching band was swatting bugs and mosquitoes under the lights of the baseball outfield. Members of the band obviously have decided that mediocre is not good enough for them. On Saturday, judges agreed. The North Posey Marching Vikings may be the only group of students to finish their season in the Indiana State Championships. As I can personally attest, it is because hard work got them there. And it was hard work as a group, not just one individual. Yes, some are more musically talented and steps come easier for some of those who are better coordinated. But as I watched the North Posey band during their final half-time performance at the end of the regular football season, it was evident that they had done everything they could do to earn a trip to the

Tomes is the candidate with the answers To the Editor, When has it been considered to be extreme when an American believes in the sanctity of life? Do these critics believe that it should not be considered a double homicide when killing a pregnant mother? Furthermore, when has it been considered to be a right wing extremist when supporting the constitutional right to own firearms – not for sport but for defense? It’s alarming to hear those blast these supporters as extremists and to question the need for supporting the right to bear arms when just the other day Mayor Bloomberg from New York took the liberty to tell us in Indiana that our guns laws are too lax. Maybe he should question his own stand on gun issues seeing how his state is riddled with crime despite the extensive gun control laws on the books. Although the Supreme Court recently ruled in favor of gun ownership, it is apparent by the actions of the liberal cities that they simply do not care to abide by this ruling and continue to enforce their illegal gun control laws. This is why the need to support gun rights must be a constant battle. To many in Washington, the Constitution is not a celebrated achievement but a minor inconvenience to be overlooked. Some argue that issues such as those listed above along with illegal immigration are federal issues. However, when the federal government is too afraid to handle issues that they actually have authority to mingle in then we need strong state legislatures to battle these issues for us.

houses”, and vote “no”. Another approach is to stay with the status quo and vote “yes” without any basis for doing so. None of these approaches feels right and, therefore, probably none is. O n e somewhat more salubrious approach is to Google the judge’s name and/or read their profiles on the IN.gov website. As most people have a friend or family member who is a judge or attorney, questions about the appellate court judges up for retention can be directly asked. Of course, a voter might do what Ms. Campbell has done and write a letter to the newspapers. In response to Ms. Campbell’s thoughtful concerns I do not wish to be flippant. However, other than to the retention eligible judges and their families, does it re-

Jim Tomes is that person to take on these issues. He has spoken in numerous forums on all issues ranging from jobs and economy to education to the most controversial issues as listed above. His top priority is jobs and the economy but as voters, we should be tired of the same generic line of questioning at these debates regarding jobs and economy. Who isn’t for job growth, but these questions will not give you a better understanding of the person who wants to represent you, which is why Jim Tomes will boldly stand up for us by taking these issues head on. After listening to him speak you, as a voter, whether you like him or not, will have a clear understanding of how he stands on all issues. As a voter, I am tired of being surprised by candidates who answers questions so vaguely that it sounds as if the candidate could either be for or against an issue as not to “offend” anyone. This should be seen as a day of reckoning for the Unions to finally get one of their own, a former union steward, elected that actually knows and understands their struggles. Jim Tomes is also a fellow veteran who served in Vietnam. As a former Marine and current National Guard officer, I am pleased to have a candidate who has served his country on the battlefield to now serve our state as State Senator of District 49.

Checks and balances necessary for any successful government Letter to the Editor: Next Tuesday, November 2, the citizens of Posey County have a big choice to make - a choice between the status quo or a new direction for Posey County. For too long, Posey County has been dominated by one political party. This lack of checks and balances has resulted in numerous errors made by officeholders that have cost the taxpayers dearly. A case in point is the two years of late property tax billings that cost our cash-strapped school districts over $1,000,000 in interest payments, not to mention the impact this delay had on our fire departments and local government units. When questioned about these errors, the officeholders’ typical response is to pass the buck as quickly as possible. Recently, the County Council voted to deny tax abatement extensions to businesses in Posey County at a time when our declining population base is the root of so many problems facing our schools, towns, and our County. Posey County needs economic development and the most disappointing part

of the tax abatement vote was that the Council members voted as they did after acknowledging in the meeting that the vote against the abatements would create a black eye for Posey County when it comes to efforts to attract new businesses to our County. Our County desperately needs new ideas and fresh approaches. Most of the Republican candidates have not run for elective office before, but they saw the direction in which our County is headed and were motivated to make a difference. These candidates pledge to provide friendly, effective, and efficient service to the taxpayers of Posey County, to take personal responsibility for the offices they hold, and to work for economic development. They offer practical common sense solutions to the problems facing Posey County. The qualified choice is clear. I urge you to vote for the Republican Candidates on November 2. Greg Newman Posey County Republican Chairman

Pence endorses Tomes

Gavel Gamut’s “GAMBLERS FALLACY” Three weeks ago Arlene Campbell of Wadesville asked some prescient questions about the process of voting in judicial retenGAVEL tion matters. N o r m a l l y GAMUT one might call such po- BY JUDGE litical events JIM REDWINE contests or races. But, since in the retention process only one judge is on the ballot, it is sort of like when I am struggling with whether to watch a ball game or do some chore Peg has assigned. It is just I against me, at least until Peg appears. With retention, voters are asked to retain or not retain some judge they almost certainly do not know and probably never heard of. How does a concerned citizen decide? Sometimes we may be tempted to just ignore those spots on the ballot. Or we might, in a fit of pique, just say, “A plague on all your

state finals. Their movements were synchronized and their music was flawless. That’s when Life 105 kicks in. North Posey Band, take pride in your accomplishments. You have already achieved more than the large majority of high school bands in Indiana. But just as in your work life, the decisions of judges are subjective. And while you may or may not win the title of the best marching band in your class in the state, you have earned the admiration of your community and of this newspaper editor. You’ve learned how to work together, how to win together, how to get along under adverse circumstances, and most of all, you have learned that if you work hard enough for something, it can be achieved. Congratulations, marching Vikings. You have paid the price. I have no doubt that you will represent your community well in the state finals. Whether you finish on top is simply subjective at this point. But if you don’t, it won’t be because another band worked harder. I don’t think that is possible. And when I’m coming home from working late this week and the lights are on at the baseball field, I’ll know who is still out there practicing!

ally matter whether we guess “yes” or “no” for some judge we had no part in electing to begin with and who almost none of us have ever heard of? Let’s say a majority guess “no”. Then the seven member Judicial Qualifications Committee and the governor will just select another judge no one knows to fill the vacancy. Probably the replacement judge will be pretty similar to the replaced one. Their high school, college and law school educations will be similar. Each will have had to pass a Bar Examination. Each will be required to have Continuing Legal and/or Judicial Education. Both will be free of criminal convictions. A more rational approach is for Hoosiers to reclaim their right to elect all their judges. It is neither the merit of so called “Merit Selected” judges nor that of elected judges that is the proper issue for our concern. “Merit Se-

lected” judges gave us Dred Scott as well as Brown vs. Topeka Board of Education. Elected judges have given the citizens of each state a similar mixed bag of weakness and wisdom. Judges deal with human behavior which requires an understanding of life’s foibles and vicissitudes and the strength of character to apply the law fairly regardless of the consequences. Of course, this is the ideal below which all judges sometimes fall. That happens to us humans. What is important is that the system that determines who will be chosen to judge us be under our collective, democratic control. Since almost any system will produce similar judges, democracy, not autocracy, should prevail. Now, as to those four appellate court judges who are up for retention on November 2, I suggest you and I meet here next week and discuss the specifics.

Congressman Mike Pence has endorsed Jim Tomes for his campaign for Indiana Senate seat District 49. “I am proud to support Jim Tomes for the Indiana State Senate. I appreciate his solid character and his dedication to fiscal responsibility, limited government and the sanctity of life. Jim has the common sense and work ethic that voters are looking for this year. Jim clearly stands on the side of taxpayers-- not big government. I believe that this election may be the most important election in the life of our state and nation. Jim’s commitment to strengthening Hoosier families, protect-

ing our Constitutional freedoms, and standing up for taxpayer’s interests makes him the right choice for voters in Southwest Indiana.” US Representative Mike Pence I am pleased to accept Congressman Mike Pence’s endorsement this shows my commitment to bringing the voice of the people back to the Indiana State House. I will work hard to create an environment that promotes business and job growth here in Indiana. As your State Senator I will fight to make your voice heard! Jim Tomes Candidate Indiana State Senate District 49

Vikings defeat Rebels in rematch, will host Raiders Friday By Dave Pearce The North Posey Vikings had all they could handle with the undermanned South Spencer Rebels on Friday night. But when the October dust had settled, the Vikings had lived to see another week of play-off action, 28-21, and the Rebels went back to Reo to turn in their gear for another year. “When we went down and scored the first touchdown, we were hoping that would kind of set the tone for us,” Coach Joe Gengelbach said, following the game. “But they are a good defensive ballclub. They are always a good defensive ballclub and they always play hard from the start to the end.” Friday night was no exception. After the Rebels were unable to move the ball after receiving the opening kick-off, the Rebels were forced to punt from deep in their own territory. Then on the first Viking play from scrimmage at the 47-yard line, junior quarterback Colton Motz hit Jared Reidford for a 21 yard gain and the Vikings were in business. The next two downs, however, the Vikings were unable to move the ball. Enter Jourdan Cox. The 6-2, 175-pounder got a full head of steam and gained 11 yards, the last three in the air as he hurdled over the defense to pick up the first down. Then, following a holding call and facing a second-and-15, Motz found a familiar target deep in the end zone and sophomore Nick Neidig came down with the ball to claim a touchdown and a 6-0 lead with just over seven minutes remaining in the first period. Junior soccer player Nick Crumbacher, whose services were invaluable on Friday

night, hit the extra point, then proceeded to send the kick-off (into the wind) into the end zone and the Rebels took over on the 20. But there was no doubt about the second quarter… it belonged to the Rebels. “The next three possessions we were in a position to do some positive things and maybe take the game over but we just didn’t do it,” Gengelbach said. “We had a turnover and a couple of penalties that were monstrous at the time.” Just 12 seconds into the second period, Alex Hermann scored on a one yard run but Austin Little blocked the extra point attempt and the Vikings still had a narrow lead. But they didn’t have it for long. Feeding off Viking mistakes and a newfound hope, the Rebel line manhandled the Vikings in the second period. They controlled the pace of the game and the line of scrimmage as the story line on the next two scores looked almost identical. Quarterback Walter Franklin hit Tyler Hermann, the first time for a 13-yard score. The next one came from 40 yards out and suddenly, it appeared the Vikings might be hanging up the jerseys when the game was over. The Rebels had converted the 2-pointer on a run the first time and then hit the extra point on the second score and led 21-7 with 57 seconds remaining in the first half. “We seemed to get into a little bit of a lull and they ran that that screen play out there two times,” Gengelbach said. “We worked on defending that all week but for some reason, we just weren’t attacking like we are capable of.” The Vikings had to do something. Prior to

Photo by Dave Pearce the kick-off the coaching staff attempted to light a fire under the team. “Have you got it figured out by now,” one coach was heard in the huddle. “They want to play again next week and apparently, you guys don’t.” Cody Voelker brought the short kick out to the 47 and with 52 seconds showing, Motz went to work. He found Reidford for five yards and after an incomplete pass, he found Reidford again who carried to the 37. He then hit Neidig at the 21 and the clock was

stopped. Crumbacher came in and calmly nailed the first of two 38-yard field goals of the night and it was obvious from the first kick, Crumbacher had plenty of leg to hit from further out. There was no scoring in the third period. Alex Maile recovered a fumbled catch attempt off the South Spencer punt with 45 seconds remaining in the third period. With

Wildcats get the best of Titans, will face Memorial By Steve Joos A five-yard gain on the ground can open things up for a 30-yard pass play. That was one example Mount Vernon football coach Paul Meier used in explaining the importance of a good rushing attack in complementing a strong passing game. That was what the Wildcats got Friday night in winning their Class 3A Sectional

opener with Gibson Southern. The Wildcats jumped out to a 35-7 lead and then held off the Titans, 35-21, in the opening game of the Class 3A Sectional. Coach Paul Maier was happy with the win, but he wasn’t too thrilled about how the Cats closed things out. “It’s win or go home right now,” Maier said. “All bets are off. We need to finish, fin-

ish the game, finish the deal and we didn’t do that so well tonight. We kind of hung on there at the end.” Aaron Choate and Tyler Osborne were a force in the backfield, following the offensive line into a number of big holes and chewing up yardage (Mount Vernon had 36 rushing plays for 165 yards). That enabled the passing game to do its thing, with Jason Stemple completing 16 of 24 passes for 241. “We found our run game tonight,” Maier said. “Both in our spread look and there at the end when we went to our two-back look. We had a couple of drives where we pounded it down the field to score.” Maier was pleased with the offensive balance and cited it as necessary for the Cats to maintain a run in the playoffs. The game wasn’t really a continuation of the Cats’ penchant this season of being on opposite sides of blowout scores, it only seemed that way for the first three quarters. As Aaron Saraub caught seven passes for yards and Stemple passed for 241 yards and a touchdown as the Cats’ aerial assault picked up in the second quarter. “We were able to get a little play action fake inside,” Maier said. “Not a very good one, but still pop guys free behind that that.” Straub had a good night, the coach said, and Stemple did a good job of getting the ball to him despite double coverage on the part of the Titan defense. “We had great balance between the run and the pass,” Maier said. “All of our backs were pounding it in there and getting it up right where we wanted. Our offensive line did a fantastic job of opening those hole up. That was the key, our run opened up our passing game.” Osborne finished the night with 61 yards, while Choate pick up 38 as the Cats picked up 165 yards on the ground. And the defense held the Titans in check for most of the game. The two teams traded turnovers in the early going before the Cats could get a drive going with a nine-play, 84-yared march capped by Stemple’s 22-yard gallop across the goal line. The first of five Zac Deig extra points made the score 7-0 with 3:36 to play. The running backs got in on the action in the second quarter as the Wildcats opened a 21-0 bulge as part of an offensive outburst that took up most of the period’s last five minutes. First, Choate barged in from five yards out with 4:52 left in the second quarter, then a 41-yard punt return gave the Cats very good field position with 3:20 to go Two minutes, six plays (evenly balanced between the run and some big gains through the air) and 59 yards later, Osborne was in the end zone from four yards out and Mount Vernon was

up by three touchdowns. Gibson Southern finally got on the scoreboard with 17.2 seconds left before halftime when Matt Brown got in from four yards out and Matt WIllinger added the point after to make the score 21-7 at the intermission. The Titans were hoping for a little momentum in the second half after that score, but the Cats took care of that with what proved to be their last two touchdowns of the night. Mount Vernon took the opening kickoff 55 yards in just under two minutes to start the third quarter, with Osborne polishing things off with a 10-yard run. On their next possession, Gibson Southern fumbled and Mount Vernon recovered on the Titans 26-yard line. Stemple promptly found Blake Marshall in the end zone and the senior receiver hauled in Mount Vernon’s only aerial touchdown of the night on a onehanded grab off a Gibson Southern player’s shoulder pad. Deig’s kick made it 35-7 with 9:35 left in the third chapter. “(The touchdowns) were huge,” Maier said. “They made it a four-score game real quick and that kind of changed what they could do and what they wanted to do. That was a real big turn.” Was it ever. Gibson Southern tried to make things interesting, or at least look a little more respectable on the scoreboard, with pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns. Brown scored his second touchdown of the night on a oneyard run with 7:17 to go in the game, and then Kyle Wampler capped a 10-play drive by hauling in a five-yard pass from Jordan Scheller with 3:39 to play. While those scores came against Mount Vernon’s reserves with the issue pretty much well in hand, Maier was still concerned. “Whenever we put a guy in, we expect them to step up,” he said. “We expect them to do what they need to do and close the deal. We didn’t get that done tonight.” The Cats had some decent drives, but they still close the deal. Maier was also concerned about some of the mistakes his team made (the Wildcats lost a fumble and Stemple was intercepted onece), but the Wildcats took away three Titan fumbles and picked off one of Scheller’s tires through the air. And the Cats ran the ball as well as they threw it. Brown finished the night with 111 yards and a pair of scores. The Cats will need more of that offensive balance as they head into the semifinals this weekend at home against Memorial, an 83-21 winner over Princeton Saturday. The Tigers boast an attack that is similar to the Wildcats, which means Mount Vernon will have to move the ball and control the line of scrimmage defensively.

Aldy Rappites make sectional finals By Steve Joos All of a sudden, the New Harmony volleyball team found itself. After struggling all season with inconsistency and struggling through two sets against the Tecumseh Lady Braves, the Lady Rappites rallied from a four-point deficit and forced the Lady Braves into a pair of tiebreakers in order to nail down the Class 1A Wood Memorial Sectional championship 25-12, 25-6, 27-25. “They’re a good team,” Lady Rappites coach Emily Pruitt said. “They’re a solid team. They proved that in past years and they’ll show that in years to come. We just did realize how important this game was. I think we found some heart, we finally showed we could compete.” The first two sets of the game got away from the Lady Rappites in a hurry, as a four-point streak broke open a 3-3 tie in the opening contest and an eight-point run with Rebecca Brown at the line broke open the second game, which was ended on another four-point stretch, this time with Ashley Westerman doing the honors. Things weren’t looking that much better in the third set and then the Lady Rappites started playing a smarter game. New Harmony scored three points off Kendall Morris’ serves and pulled to within a point at 10-9 before an out of bounds serve gave the ball back to Tecumseh. The three-point lead held until Morgan Matthews went to the line with Tecumseh holding a 19-18 lead. A kill by Sarah Smotherman and a Lady Brave hitting error gave New Harmony a 20-19 lead, only to have a net error tie the game and give the ball back to Tecumseh. Morris later served two more points to give New Harmony a lead at 2321, but one hitting miscue broke the Lady Rappites’ serve. New Harmony got to game point thanks to a pair of net errors, but couldn’t get that last point. Two points off Kara Snow’s offer-

ings gave Tecumseh a 25-24 advantage, but the Lady Braves couldn’t seal the deal, losing the ball out of bounds and knotting things at 25-25. That would be as close as New Harmony would get. A net error broke Abby Deckard’s serve and a short hit on Brown’s serve made it game, set and match for the Lady Braves. “I don’t know if the girls were nervous,” Pruitt said. “It’s a big deal for New Harmony to get to the championship. They haven’t done it in at least four years (it’s been eight, since 2002). It’s a big deal, we should be proud for how far we came.” Nerves and a lack of communication were among the many problems which hampered New Harmony in the first two games, the coach added. The first match of the Sectional went to which ever team got off to an early lead. And in three of four sets, that turned out to be the Lady Rappites. New Harmony got off to the early advantage in three sets and eliminated the Cannelton Lady Bulldogs in the Sectional opener 25-18, 25-21, 21-25, 25-14. “We weren’t very consistent,” Pruitt said. “Neither team was really that consistent. It could have gone either way. Cannelton bet us once at our place and we beat them at their place, so it definitely could have gone either way.” New Harmony scored three points off Anna Bulser’s serves to open the first game. That provided some early cover as the two teams went back and froth, until Owen went to the line and New Harmony was clinging to a 1413 lead. Owen promptly dished up four points, two of which were scored on Cannelton net errors, and the Lady Rappites broke things open with an 18-14 lead. Another three points off Morris’ offerings all but put the game away. Three points with Owen at the line broke a 2-2 tie early in the second game. The Lady Rappites scored another four points off the freshman

middle hitter’s offerings as they went up 11-7 in a cat-and-mouse battle which wasn’t really decided until a tip kill broke the serve of Cannelton’s Elisa Miller and preserved a 22-21 lead for New Harmony. Three points off Busler’s serves put New Harmony up by two games after that. After losing those first two contests, Cannelton scored the first four points of the third game and that proved to be the difference, even though New Harmony mounted a comeback, tying the set three times and going up 17-14 on a volley which landed just inside the Lady Bulldogs’ zone with Busler at the line. A net serve gave the ball back to Cannelton and they took control from there as Julia Allen dished up four points to give Cannelton a 19-18 lead. The fourth set was just as nip-andtuck in the fourth game, even though four points off Owen’s serve enabled the Lady Rappites to open an 18-12 advantage. Matthews added another three to all but salt things away for New Harmony. Pruitt was pleased with the efforts of everyone in the fourth game, especially Brianna Suttles, Mathews and Smotherman. Both teams also had trouble hanging on to the ball, Pruitt added, once again citing a streak of inconsistency that was almost mutual. Pruitt thanked her six seniors (Busler, Suttles, Sarah Smotherman, Samantha Golden, Summer Nelson and Winter Nelson) for their efforts during the season, her first at New Harmony. “It’s tough to have a new coach come in their senior year and they’re learning a new system,” she said. “I’m proud of them.” Pruitt went on to say that the team had an improved season and they have come far in the season, adding that opposing schools may want to look out for the Lady Rappites in the future. Even if they didn’t find themselves until the bitter end Saturday.

the Rebels’ options became apparent. As the clock wound down, Jacob Bender came up with a big sack. On the final play of the game, Cox intercepted the pass and the Vikings head into a game next week. The road will get no easier as the Vikings will again be the host school, but this time, the Southridge Raiders will come to call. The Raiders handed the Vikings a onesided loss at midseason and Gengelbach knows his team will have to be ready. “Wes ran really hard all night and Nick Neidig is playing very well right now,” Gengelbach said. “We’re still young and it seems like we have a hard time keeping focus for all four quarters. But by this time of the season, youth is not an excuse.” Harness finished with 145 yards on 20 carries while Cox had 23 yards on four carries. Neidig finished with eight receptions for 109 yards while Reidford had four for 59, Cody Voelker two for 23, and Cox one for six yards. Senior Alex Maile had one of his best defensive games as he finished with 10 tackles to go with his fumble recovery. Harness also had 10 tackles and a tackle for a loss. Luke Morrow, Alex Goegel, and Anthony Webb finished with six tackles apiece. Austin Little and Cox had three

tackles apiece while Neidig, Chris O’Risky, and Baumgart had a tackle apiece. Little had three tackles to go

with his extra point block. Gametime Friday night at North Posey is 7 p.m.

Vikings, from Page 1A came up big, coming up with a completion after a defender had deflected the pass and the momentum gave the Vikings the first down heading into the final period. On the first play from scrimmage in the final period, Wes Harness found a seam down the sidelines and broke loose for a 63-yard touchdown run and it looked once again as if the Vikings had a chance, especially when Motz hit Reidford for the 2-point conversion that pulled the Vikings to within 21-18. The Viking defense stiffened up as Anthony Webb came up with a big sack on the Rebels’ next possession. Then with 5:42 remaining in the game, Motz found Neidig again and the lanky sophomore found his way into the end zone on the 20yard play and the Vikings finally took the lead they had relinquished in the first period, 25-21. Then it would be Luke Morrow who would come up big. He managed to force a fumble and then recover it on the 25 as the Rebels were beginning what could have been a game-winning drive. The Vikings were unable to move the ball and with 1:26 remaining, were forced to go for yet another 38-yard field goal. This kick, too, split the center of the uprights and

Posey County harriers face tough competition at semi-state By Steve Joos Each of the Posey County qualifiers ran well at Saturday’s Brown County Semistate meet. In some cases, they even turned in personal best teams. They just got pushed back further into the pack.

The two boys and one girl from Posey County ran the Brown County course well, but the level of competition forced them finish far behind the leaders and out of the running for this weekend’s state finals. “The Semistate has the best five teams and four of

the top 80 teams in the state still running,” Mount Vernon coach Tim Searcy said. “If you include those teams with the individual, you’ll find that the competition is very tough. Getting out is really a challenge.” One of Searcy’s runners, Ken Renshaw, had the county’s highest finish, coming in 45th with a personal-best time of 16:38.4. He was hanging around the top 30 after the first two-

thirds of the race, but fell back in the later going. North Posey’s Hunter Motz was even further back, finishing 59th (16:50.8). The only county runner in the girls’ meet, North Posey freshman Olivia Goebel, finished 109th (21:57.7). While it was a very disappoint day for the Viking contingent, coach Jessica Ivy reminded them of just how great an accomplish-

Wildcats enjoy great season, fall to unbeaten Memorial By Steve Joos When a team is eliminated along the tournament trail, it sometimes hopes the team which knocked it out goes further, maybe even winning the state championship. The Mount Vernon volleyball team was done in by squad with that kind of potential Saturday night. That was the case Saturday, as the Lady Wildcats ran into the undefeated Memorial Lady Tigers in the championship match of the Class 3A Gibson Southern Sectional and came up on the short end of a 25-17, 2515, 25-18 decision. “They were incredible,� coach Andi Allford said. “I predict they’ll win state. They’re a college-built team, they were built for this game, so it was not by lack of effort on our part, it’s just the way it happened.� A college-built team which had a way of thwarting everything the Lady Wildcats tried to do. Memorial’s overall strength made it difficult to find a weakness and capitalize on it, Allford said, adding that they didn’t make too many mistakes and were aggressive in keeping the ball in play, which hurt the Lady Cats’ ability to finish. “When you’re built the way they are and they’re solid all the way around, it’s hard to find that weakness and to capitalize on it,� Allford explained. “I feel like they did everything. We played with heart, we picked up stuff, we were scrappy, and we were swinging aggressive. They were just doing that better.� Better or not, the Lady Cats did hang around a bit in all three sets. A blocking error on the first possession of the match gave Mount Vernon a shortlived 1-0 lead and they were still within three points early in the contest, tying the game at 10-10 on tree points off Meagan Montgomery’s serves.

It wasn’t until Memorial scored four points with Claire Church in serve that they were able to take control of the opening game. The Lady Tigers had to gradually build a 10-point margin in the second game and did likewise in the final set as Mount Vernon tried to stay aggressive and stick with the Evansville school. The Lady Wildcats struggled more than normal at the service line. Carynn Koch, for example, put her first three serves in the net. “Anytime we’re missing serves, that’s 100 percent in your control and when you drop that, you’re losing more than a point,� Allford explained. “There goes your momentum, there goes your confidence, it’s a big isolating point, so we struggled with that. We came out of it, but that hurts any team.� Koch recovered enough to block three volleys for the Lady Cats. Bailee Schelhorn did manage two aces to lead the team, while Jacey Ritzert had 13 kills, Lauren Stemple 27 digs and Meagan Martin 28 assists Mount Vernon reached the championship match with a four-set semifinal win over Boonville 25-18, 25-23, 2125, 25-20. “Boonville was a tough team,� Allford said. “We were playing pretty much the same style as we did (against Memorial), They were making more errors than Memorial and we were able to play to our style. Boonville was a tough team, but the court looked a little different.� The Lady Cats basically did to the Lady Pioneers what Memorial did to them, the coach added. The Lady Pioneers had a different lineup than the one which Mount Vernon faced in September, Allford said, adding that Boonville went to a 6-2 alignment with two setters. The Lady Cats, however, played the same as they did in the first meeting between the two squads.

Martin registered five aces and had 32 assists against the Lady Pioneers, while Stemple dug 25 passes. Koch and Ritzert made 13 Boonville’s unlucky number, as Koch blocked 13 volleys and Ritzert had 13 kills. Koch registered seven blocks and 11 kills, while Brittany Wallis put over nine aces to lead the Lady Cats past Princeton 25-9, 25-9, 25-6 in Thursday’s Secitonal opener. Aggressive serving was a big factor, Allford said, as the Lady Cats seemed to be on a roll from the outset. After getting the ball on a Princeton sideout to open the contest, Montgomery went to the line and stayed there until the Lady Wildcats couldn’t return a short volley. By that time, Mount Vernon was up 8-1 on the Lady Tiger rally point. Schelhorn later dished up four straight points, but mostly the Lady Wildcats spent the rest of the opening set taking advantage of Princeton’s serving errors. “We didn’t have too many missed serves,� Allford said. “That’s a huge plus, to get the ball, put the ball on the court and be aggressive, that ‘s gong to help our game a lot.� The passing was a little shaky at times, Allford said, but the Lady Wildcats were able to make something out those rocky starts and finish them for points. Stemple helped finish things off to the tune of nine digs, while Martin had 24 assists. The Lady Tigers didn’t put up that much of a fight, the coach added, but when they were able to get the ball over, they were able to attack. Mount Vernon took advantage of some internal errors by Princeton, which resulted in Mount Vernon points as well. And Mount Vernon served the ball well, with the jump serve a big weapon, as it has been all season. “If your service on the

Daddy...

ELBERT E. MATHEW JR.

It seems with you in my life, things have never been the same. What happened to those crazy days when I was just a child. What happened to all those times when I always looked to you; No matter what was happening in my life, you could change the gray skies blue. Daddy, some days I can still hear your voice. Yet before I can turn around to see your face, the sound has been erased. Daddy, if I could turn back time and once more hear your voice; I’d tell you how much I love and miss you. And that a year has not yet begun to heal the pain, I know as I held your hand and told you how much I loved you; ou; I would be O.K. I just did not realize it was going to be so terribly rribly difficult, with all the wonderful memories you left behind with me. Please always know I love you and no one can take place; Years may come and go, but your memory will never be erased. sed.

May 29th, 1935 through October 30th, 2009 Today, Jesus, as You are listening in your home above... Would You go aand find my Dad Daddy him and give h this note: no
