Poseyville crime spree nets several arrests, more coming

By Dave Pearce A pair of adult arrests and several juvenile arrests have been made as a result of a recent spike in criminal activity in the area of Poseyville.

According to Posey County Sheriff Greg Oeth, Poseyville residents Andrew J. Helm, 19, and Tobias Paris, 18, have been arrested as a result of unrelated incidents.

Oeth said four juveniles have also been arrested and the other arrests are pending.

The rash of burglaries and criminal activity in Posey County has increased the importance of the

Andrew Helm

grant that allowed the hiring of former Indiana State Master Trooper Frank Smith a few weeks ago.

Smith, who lives in Poseyville and is familiar with the students at the school through school programs, was instrumental in the arrests.

Smith’s salary comes from a grant with the county’s only contribution a sheriff’s car for Smith to drive.

Smith said that it was tips from the public that enabled arrests for most of the string of mostly petty crimes. As a matter of fact, Smith is now in the process of creating a neighborhood watch program in

Poseyville.

Paris has been charged with the vandalism that occurred at the Poseyville Youth Baseball Fields located behind Clem Dassel and Company on Highway 165. Smith said he does not believe that Paris acted alone but other arrests in that particular case had not been made at press time.

With Poseyville Police Officer Doug Saltzman out of commission as the result of a heart attack about three weeks ago, Smith’s help and the presence of a police vehicle in

Grant, building timeline reason to celebrate in New Harmony

By Pam Robinson In spite of problems, the Town of New Harmony still has plenty to celebrate, as usual. It was announced at Thursday’s meeting of the New Harmony Town Council that the Parks Board has received $1,000 from Toyota in response to a grant proposal written by Councilwoman Linda Warrum and New Harmony businessman David Flanders. The funds will be used for landscaping at the new fire and emergency medical services station.

Later in the meeting, Councilman Joe Straw announced that work is back on schedule for the new fire and emergency medical services station after a brief holdup on a construction permit.

Less savory is the need to take action against unsightly trash on street fronts. At the October 13 meeting, council will vote to send Town Marshal Scott Champlin to serve letters to those listed in violation of the town’s nuisance ordinance.

Councilman Don Gibbs initiated the action with his comment, “When you drive around, you can see mattresses, old chairs and junk outside houses and in the street— been there, setting there forever, and I think it’s time these people be made to move them. I just think enough’s enough.”

Violators will be required to clean up their property or will be required to pay a stiff fine if the Town of New Harmony is forced to do the clean-up.

Grants continue to fund critical MV projects

By Dave Pearce The Mount Vernon Board of Works met Thursday evening and conducted several important business items for the City of Mount Vernon.

The board approved the advertisement for Imminent Domain on a small triangular-shaped piece of property that lies on Wolflin Street just north of Second Street.

City attorney Beth McFadin-Higgins indicated that a 50-year search had been conducted and it appears that the parcel has been unplatted and there was no owner of record found.

Generally in a case of Imminent Domain, the city would be called upon to make what they would consider a “fair” offer on the property and the process would be much longer. But since there is no owner on record, the process can be shortened dramatically and

construction on the Safe Route to School sidewalks can begin to coincide with a storm sewer project near West School.

Mayor John Tucker indicated that both of these projects are being funded by grants received by the city.

Construction engineers can work together to make sure that neither of the projects interferes with the other.

In other business: •The Board took under advisement quotes for demolition of buildings on two properties in Mount Vernon.

The quotes for work at 1329 Locust Street came in with O’Risky Excavating at $6,300, D.K. Parker at $7,060, and Russell’s Excavating at $13,005, On the property at 900 E. Third Street, the bids were O’Risky at

Mount Vernon man faces sexual misconduct with minor charges A Mount Vernon man has been arrested and charged with sexual misconduct with a minor.

According to court records, Jared Schmitt appeared before judge pro temp Beth McFadin-Higgins late this week after it was determined that there was enough evidence to arrest Schmitt on the charge. Schmitt faces

charges that result from his contact with a 14-year-old Posey County girl.

Schmitt is reportedly out on bail and will face one of the local judges when they return to court this week.

Both judges were reportedly out of town at a conference on Friday.

Retrospective ................. A4 Legals .......................... B7-8 Classifieds ................. B8-10

By Dave Pearce A one-year-old rural Posey County child was run over by a car on Tuesday at his home at 311 Elk Trail Drive.

According to Posey County Sheriff Greg Oeth, the young boy’s father is facing a second charge of neglect of a dependent following the incident. The child remains hospitalized in Evansville and although the child’s injuries are extensive, the prognosis for a full recovery appear to be good if there are no further complications. The child is suffering from fractured ribs and damage to his lungs.

According to Oeth, Stephen Kilgore II, who lives in the Elk Trail Drive home, faced charges of child neglect a few months back and was on probation when the latest incident occurred. That incident stems from an investigation by the Department of Children’s Services. One of the new warrants issued revoked the probation while another arrest warrant was issued following Tuesday’s incident.

Oeth said that Kilgore was apparently preparing to go somewhere when Kilgore took the young child and his 2-year-old sister outside and started the vehicle.

Oeth indicated that Kilgore had returned to the inside of the home to check and see what was taking detaining his fiancée.

While Kilgore was in the home, the one-year-old got behind the vehicle and the 2-year-old daughter somehow managed to get into the car and take the gear out of park and into reverse. The vehicle then proceeded out of the driveway and the vehicle ran over the one-yearold child.

A construction crew happened to be working across the road and the vehicle finally came to rest against one of the crew’s trucks. Members of the construction crew lifted the vehicle off the child who was under the rear wheel of the vehicle.

The child remains hospitalized in Evansville and the father remains lodged in the Posey County Jail.

OPINION

Making the tough decisions sometimes involves everyone’s help Sometimes a small business owner has to make tough choices. Perhaps I should rephrase that. Every decision made by a small business owner is a tough one, especially in a business where TRUTH... community acceptance and STRANGER support is paramount to the THAN FICTION success of your business.

Last week, one of those BY DAVE “tough” decisions was made. PEARCE After several months of contemplating, we decided to take our paper to a Wednesday newspaper. Trust me, it was not without a ton of thought and speculation, however, in the end, we decided that it would be best for everyone.

On our Tuesday schedule, the newspaper had to be completely finished by 5 p.m. on Monday. With a composition staff consisting primarily of three people who do multiple tasks too numerous to mention, that’s quite a mountain to scale. And on Monday morning, the calls came in, without fail, trying to squeeze a last-minute announcement or an ad in that had been forgotten about.

Since the newspaper ultimately belongs to the community, we always hated to say

“no,” to almost anything. But the more times we said “yes,” the more times it meant going through and redoing the newspaper trying to make room for those little weekly “exceptions.” By getting finished late on Monday, it put our printers in a bind and forced our delivery driver to be out all hours of the night to get your newspaper to your favorite newsstand on time. That was the only way we could ensure a Tuesday delivery.

After talking with several residents of the community and many of our advertisers, we found out that originally, the Poseyville News was a Wednesday paper. Not until it was combined with the New Harmony Times to become the Posey County News did it become a Tuesday paper. The general concensus was that a one-day delay was not the end of the world. In fact, several organizations have expressed happiness that when they call in on Monday morning, there is still time to get their “forgotten” item in the paper.

We have a generous group of advertisers.

Without their weekly support of your newspa-

per, there would be no newspaper. Although we appreciate each and every one of our subscribers, if you multiply the price of a stamp by 52 weeks, you will soon see there is very little margin for paying for anything aside from the postage and part of the printing. Your $33 covers most of that. The remaining revenue comes from the advertisers.

You would not believe the generosity of small business owners in Posey County. Every individual and organization who needs support generally begins with the small business owner. Very few ever turn away a request for an ad in the yearbook, a request for cookie sales or popcorn sales, a sponsorship for a contestant in a Posey County Fair pageant, a sponsorship for a baseball team or a softball diamond. Whether you have taken the time to realize it or not, the businesses that make up each of our towns in Posey County is the lifeblood of the entire community. Without them, the schools could not operate and outside functions would be all but non-existent.

These business owners often give selflessly of their time and money and very few take the time to realize where they would be without these hometown businesses.

The next time you think you can save a few dollars by driving to the big city to pick up an item, ask yourself how many times you have asked the big city businesses for their help in sponsoring a community project. How much of the money you spend there will come back to help keep Posey County people in a job?

Exactly how much are you “saving” by taking your business out of Posey County?

This is an effort to publicly thank the businesses who are kind enough to support the events of your community and to thank these fine folks, our advertisers, for helping us keep Posey County people informed about the events that are happening in Posey County.

This is our county and we should take pride in it. We should buy locally when we can. If you decide that going someplace else saves you a buck or two now and then, remember to be sure and try and retrieve that “buck or two” from the business where you spent it the next time your group or organization is needing “local” assistance. Without your help, local businesses cannot survive, But without local businesses, your community cannot survive.

It is something to think about.

Letters to the Editor Grateful for contested mayoral race We are grateful that Mt. Vernon has a contested mayoral race this year. This town has been dominated for a long time by a one-party system that has fueled complacency and nepotism. Our decision to support Paul Watzlavik has to do with the fact that we believe he is qualified to lead, has the vision to make Mt. Vernon a community that we can all be proud of, and possesses the energy to carry out the potential that he sees in the place we call "home."

Pledging support for Jennifer Shell as Clerk-Treasurer of Poseyville It is my privilege to support Jennifer Shell as an excellent candidate for the prestigious ClerkTreasurer position in Poseyville.

Jennifer demonstrates all the qualities and skills needed in the field of clerk-treasurer. She is an integral part of the Indiana League of Municipal Clerks and Treasurers (ILMCT) and as Deputy ClerkTreasurer of Princeton, Indiana has shown outstanding leadership.

Jennifer has attended many instructional classes, district and state meetings, and conferences sponsored by ILMCT and the Indiana Association of Cities and

Towns. She gives total support to the league and its related organizations. While I was President of ILMCT, Jennifer co-chaired our mentor program of training new clerks and continued that responsibility until she moved from Gaston. We are a better unit because of individuals like Jennifer who are dedicated and give sacrificially of their time to our league.

Jennifer has earned her Indiana Accredited Municipal Clerk and Certified Municipal Clerk designations and is working toward her Masters.

There are a myriad of intricacies

and details in the clerk-treasurer position that a person coming from non-government labor would not know. For the Town of Poseyville to have an experienced candidate at hand is a tremendous asset.

Jennifer has been handling the day to day workings of the office for six years. Her experience will assist the Town Council to continue to progress and grow in the many challenges that they face.

Congratulations Poseyville, for stepping up to the plate and voting for the best candidate – Jennifer Shell.

Vouching for Watzlavik As a resident of Mt. Vernon, it is refreshing to hear that Paul Watzlavik is running for mayor.

Paul is a small businessman who has had an extensive resume of success in the corporate world. Now, he hopes to use his talents to finally put a focus on job creation and keeping our current employers here in our community. To avoid a situation like Whirlpool leaving Evansville, our mayor needs to have the experience and skills necessary to work with business leaders. In my humble opinion, Paul is the right person for the job.

Battling the system, needing the enactment of The Affordable Care act, playing the waiting game I have been battling the system since 2009.

I certainly know what pass-the-buck means. I am a victim of a rare breast cancer. The type is Triple Negative. It accounts for only about 15% of all breast cancers. I have been lucky.

I have not recurred. A lady in Ft. Wayne, Indiana has not been so lucky. She has been a very sick lady with three children and a husband. Triple Negative Breast Cancer does not have a targeted treatment drug to take as the other breast cancers have. We hope everyday for one.

The Indiana Breast and Cervical Cancer Medicaid Program is a “treatment” program. Because we have no “magic pill” to take beyond chemotherapy and/or radiation, we Triple Negatives are deemed to be not in “treatment” and told we don’t qualify for the Indiana Breast and Cervical Cancer medicaid.

Triple Negatives are more at risk for recurrence than the other types of breast cancers.

We need to see our doctors too. Where is the common sense in this situation? This is a loophole that needs to be fixed.

Robert Deig (my previous district Senator) diligently drafted a senate bill to try and amend the rules to include medicaid for women diagnosed with this subtype of breast can-

cer for which there is no targeted “treatment.”

The bill was not called for vote and died in the Indiana General Assembly due to fiscal impact in 2010. Robert Deig then wrote to Governor Daniels asking for assistance since every agency we contacted denied me coverage. I wrote Governor Daniels asking for assistance also. We received no assistance.

My employer laid off 140 people shortly after I was diagnosed including me. I stayed on COBRA coverage for 18 months; however, it expired in January, 2011. Private pay insurance companies won’t sell me insurance because of the cancer diagnosis. I am told I should qualify for Indiana Comprehensive High Risk, but the premium would be near $900.00/mo. I am 63 years old and not eligible for Medicare. I sold my home to help myself and am currently paying my health bills.

If I should need to be hospitalized, I guess all that is left is bankruptcy.

Back in May, I met Mr. John Gregg, Democratic candidate for Governor. I shared with him my story. He took the time to listen to every word I said. He immediately made contact with Governor Daniel’s office asking for assistance for me. I have heard nothing from Governor Daniels.

I contacted my now district Senator James Tomes back in June via a letter. Senator Tomes readily responded saying he would see if there was anyway we could get some help on this. I await his reply.

I also contacted Representative Wendy McNamara back in June via a letter. I didn’t hear back from her until a couple of weeks ago. I was very disappointed when I read her letter telling me to apply for Medicaid D, the Healthy Indiana Plan and Indiana Breast and Cervical Cancer screening. I have been through those agencies again and again. Robert Deig had drafted legislation because I couldn’t get help from any of these state agencies and here I was being told to contact them again. I phoned Rep. McNamara’s office and spoke with a young Legislative Assistant who seemed concerned about my situation. She was interested in seeing how other states are

handling this situation and said she would make some contacts. After several days of no response, I phoned again to find that she no longer worked for Rep. McNamara. I now was speaking with a different Legislative Assistant who didn’t recognize my name but knew there was an issue when I mentioned Triple Negative Breast Cancer. He certainly was uninformed and didn’t seem to care to be informed. He asked if I had contacted Senator Tomes. Pass the buck again. I am now back to square one.

As I understand it, The Affordable Care Act is to take care of this in 2014, since it mandates prevention services as part of standard coverage, and would provide coverage for standard follow up care for cancer patients but until 2014, Triple Negative Breast Cancer victims are being hung out to die.

Gavel Gamut’s “What Ain’t So” My friend Sam Blankenship says sayings. He has a saying for most situations.

Some of them are apropos. One that often applies in my experience is: “It is not what you don't know that hurts you, but GAVEL what you know for sure that GAMUT ain't so.”

Frequently over the years BY JUDGE I have had the misfortune JIM REDWINE to realize the wisdom of this simple adage. Some of my earliest bad decisions were the result of such misguided over confidence. For example, believing I could whip my older brothers or outsmart my big sister.

As I grew into larger arenas, such as basic training in the Air Force, I had to face the reality of an obstacle course that stubbornly resisted my supposed superiority and training instructors who were unimpressed with my opinions.

Then, in those marvelous 1960's and 1970's, my certitude as to the rightness of the universe came crashing against the shoals of reality. America was not and had not been perfect and neither was or had been I. My serenity from the certain knowledge that all Americans treasured liberty and equality was roughly treated by the facts.

The Civil Rights Movement, the Women's Movement and most of all, the Viet Nam War shattered my reverie. However, I was sure we had learned and grown and would never again unfairly discriminate or make war on people who had done nothing to us. Then we invaded Iraq and decided a

billion Muslims were not entitled to their beliefs or their civil rights.

Now our President has taken the position that Palestinians who have been driven from their ancient homeland by Jewish people using our political and military might must ask those same Israelis for permission to join the United Nations.

This is like asking Chief Dr. Keith Spurgeon, United Way of Posey County Campaign Chairman, presents Black Kettle and his band of Cheyennes to ask Custer for the right to exist. I thought Pacesetter Award for Saint Philip’s School to Principal Andrea Lodato Dickel. we had learned better.

Mock ‘collision’ serves training purpose

By Valerie Werkmeister A two-car “collision” on Railroad Street in Poseyville got the attention of many local residents last Wednesday.

Rescuers from Poseyville, Wadesville and Smith Township Fire Departments were called in to work the accident that caused five individuals to be trapped and injured inside the vehicles.

The Posey County Sheriff’s Department helped direct traffic.

If the lights and sirens from multiple first-responding agencies weren’t enough to draw spectators outside to sneak a peek at the action, then the sounds of the Air Evac Lifeteam helicopter did. It’s not everyday that a helicopter lands in Poseyville to help lift and carry the wounded to the hospital. Hopefully, it will be a long time before they must return.

Thank goodness it was all just a test. The mock accident was staged as life-like as possible to simulate a horrific crash scene in which multiple agencies must work together to try to save lives.

The training event was facilitated by Poseyville Fire Department (PFD) and also included volunteers from Posey County EMS. PFD Assistant Chief, Jeff Droege, was pleased by how well the event turned out, despite the short number of volunteers that were able to attend the training event.

“It was really good training for a mass casualty type event,” Droege explained.

The departments benefit from this type of training prior to the start of their “busy season” or winter months when there is a greater chance for hazardous road conditions that can foster additional accidents.

Droege appreciated assistance from other agencies to help make the training event

successful. He also noted that without the help of Dan Perdue from Universal Salvage with the donation of the two junk cars, the training would not have been possible. Cadet from the Wadesville Fire Department served as the patients for the event. They were treated to a donated Subway platter from Subway in Poseyville while creating cuts and abrasions that would appear like real wounds. Outdated medical supplies were donated by Keith Kahre of St. Mary’s Hospital in Evansville.

Tri-County Equipment Co., Inc. allowed the use of their forklift to help set the junk cars into position to simulate a collision.The Air Evac Lifteteam donated their time and use of the helicopter. During the event, the pilot spoke to curious on-lookers and gave tours of the smaller-than-you-think helicopter. The back of the helicopter holds just enough room for the patient and paramedic.

In addition to training events like this one, PFD intends to do a mock accident at North Posey High School

next spring. The department works in conjunction with S.A.D.D (Students Against Drunk Driving) around Prom time.

Anyone that would like to see the Poseyville Fire Department vehicles, equipment or meet the volunteers

will have the opportunity to do so during their open house on Sunday, October 9 from 1 p.m. – 4 p.m. Visitors will be able to see the Survive Alive house, meet Sparky the fire dog, participate in a Chinese auction and enjoy popcorn and other refreshments.

October is National Liver Awareness Month and the American Red Cross reminds blood donors that organ transplant patients often rely on donated blood. Liver transplant patients often require several blood transfusions during surgery. A patient at a hospital served by the Red Cross recently underwent a liver transplant and received more than 60 units of red blood cells, 100 units of plasma and 13 units of platelets.

One Of God’s Special Creations

BOURBON SAUCE INGREDIENTS 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted 1 cup sugar 1 egg 1 cup Kentucky bourbon whiskey

Liver transplants are the second most common transplant, following kidney transplants. According to the Organ Procurement and Transplant Network, 6,291 people in the United States received liver transplants in 2010.

There are a variety of ways to help protect your liver from disease. The American Liver Foundation offers some simple tips: eat a healthy diet low in fatty foods, limit alcohol intake, manage medications appropriately and limit contact with toxins. For more information, visit liverfoundation.org.

All blood types are needed, especially O negative, B negative, and A negative.

Type O negative, the universal blood type, can potentially be transfused to patients with any blood type.

Simply call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or visit redcrossblood.org to make an appointment or for more information. A blood donor card or driver’s license, or two other forms of identification are required

at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental permission in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are generally in good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Governed by volunteers and supported by giving individuals and communities, the American Red Cross is the single largest supplier of blood products to hospitals throughout the United States. While local hospital needs are always met first, the Red Cross also helps ensure no patient goes without blood no matter where or when they need it. In addition to providing nearly half of the nation’s blood supply, the Red Cross provides relief to victims of disaster, trains millions in lifesaving skills, serves as a communication link between U.S. military members and their families, and assists victims of international disasters or conflicts.

BREAD PUDDING INGREDIENTS • 1 loaf French bread, at least a day old, cut into 1-inch squares (about 6-7 cups) • 1 qt milk • 3 eggs, lightly beaten • 2 cups sugar • 2 Tbsp vanilla • 1 cup raisins (soaked overnight in 1/4 cup bourbon) • 1/4 teaspoon allspice • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted BOURBON SAUCE DIRECTIONS 1. In a saucepan, melt butter; add sugar and egg, whisking to blend well. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens. (Do not allow to simmer, or it may curdle.) Whisk in bourbon to taste. Remove from heat.

Whisk before serving. The sauce should be soft, creamy, and smooth.

BREAD PUDDING DIRECTIONS 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. 2. Soak the bread in milk in a large mixing bowl. Press with hands until well mixed and all the milk is absorbed. In a separate bowl, beat eggs, sugar, vanilla, and spices together. Gently stir into the bread mixture. Gently stir the raisins into the mixture.

3. Pour butter into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan.

Coat the bottom and the sides of the pan well with the butter. Pour in the bread mix and bake at 350°F for 35-45 minutes, until set. The pudding is done when the edges start getting a bit brown and pull away from the edge of the pan. Can also make in individual ramekins.

Serve with bourbon whiskey sauce on the side; pour on to taste. Best fresh and eaten the day it is made.

Makes 8-10 servings.

The Shoes of Happiness By: RIG Ministries Famed preacher poet Edwin Markham captured the essence of Christ like living and giving in relating the story of Conrad the Cobbler. In his classic work “The Shoes of Happiness,” Markham states that saintly Conrad has a vivid dream in which he was told Christ would visit his humble cobbler shop on a certain day. The dream was so real that Conrad was certain Jesus would indeed come. So he decorated his simple shop with boughs of green and prepared breads and cakes to serve the Master. Early on the morning that Jesus was to visit, two of Conrad’s friends came by, and Conrad shared the dramatic dream with them. They wanted to wait for the Master with him because they knew that if anyone in the village would ever have visit from Jesus, it would be kindly Conrad. However, Conrad told them the Lord has said specifically that he wanted to visit with the cobbler alone. “His friends went home; and his face grew still as he watched for the shadow across the still; He lived all the moments over and over, When the Lord should enter the lowly door. The knock, the call, the latch pulled up, the lighted face, the offered cup. He would wash the feet where the spikes had been; he would kiss the hands where the nails went in; and then at last he would sit with him and break the bread as the day grew dim. But the Master did not come.

Instead, a begger knocked on the door and asked for a pair of shoes. Conrad was irritated by the interruption, but his kindly heart would not let him ignore the need of the old man. He hurriedly made the shoes and gave them to the poor begger, rushing him off so he would not interrupt or prevent the visit of the Great Guest. A littler later, another knock sounded, and Conrad was sure this was the Master. But it was only a hungry old woman carrying a heavy load of sticks. She asked for food, which Conrad reluctantly gave her.

The only food he had was what he had prepared for the Master. With each bite, Conrad’s heart sank. He feared he would have nothing left for his Lord, and he secretly hopes she would leave a little. However, she devoured every crumb. Then the old women asked if Conrad would help her to the edge of the village because her load was heavy.

He did not want to leave the shop, but again the cobbler could not turn down the frail old women. He wrote a hasty not and put it on the door, hoping the Master would not miss it and leave. When Conrad returned, the note was still there, undisturbed, so he knew the Master had not yet come. Late in the evning, there was a final knock on the cobbler’s door.

Conrad heart leapt within him, knowing at last this would be the Master. But when he opened the door, he found a lost and crying child. “Mister, I’m lost,” the little lad cried.

“Will you please help me find my home?”

Conrad sighed, gatherd the little tot in his arms, retrieved his note from the wastebasket and again placed it on his shop door. He took the lost lad far across the village to his worried mother. Rushing back, he hoped he had not missed the Master and then saw the well-used note still unmoved. Conrad knew Jesus had not yet made His visit. As the mid night hour approached, Conrad knew not the Master would not appear at his door. It really had only been a dream. The kind cobbler’s heart was broken and in his crushing sadness, Conrad fell to his knees crying, “Why is it, Lord, that Your feet delay?”

“Did You forget that this was the day?”

Then, soft in the silence, a voice he heard, “Lift up your heart, for I have kept my word.”

Three times I came to your friendly door; Three times my shadow was on your floor.

“I was the beggar with the bruised feet, I was the woman you gave to eat; I was the child on the homeless street.”

New Harmony Town Council, from Page 1A The talk about cleaning up the town prompted Councilwoman Linda Warrum to announce that two “gators,” or 20-gallon self-watering units for trees, have been vandalized. Town President David Campbell noted that the vandalism is a punishable misdemeanor crime.

In other business: •Councilwoman Karen Walker reported that insurance paid in full, except for $250, for the repairs at the wastewater treatment plant due to recent storms. Insurance paid out nearly $23,000 for those repairs.

•Parks Board President Jeanne Maudlin presented the proclamation regarding Arbor Day on October 15 for council to sign.

Town President David Campbell will read the proclamation at public festivities on that date. Maudlin also reported that four teams had signed up so far for the Chili Cook-Off and reminded everyone of the September 24 registration deadline.

•An anonymous donor was thanked for the new striping at the Murphy Park basketball court.

•Street Commissioner Bobby Grider announced that leaves were scheduled for pick up the first or second week in October once the wagon is repaired. The announcement prompted Councilman Don Gibbs to emphasize that the street department would need to purchase a good used chipper truck at the first of the year since the late 1980’s model used now is costing a lot to operate.

•The lease with the county for housing the Posey County EMS vehicle at the Tree of Life was discussed. It was noted that the county made its last payment in May and that cred-

ible sources have said the county had decided to permanently stop the payments. Council will be asking for a letter of intent from the county that is necessary for the auditing trail.

•Council approved the request of Scoutmaster Tim Wiley and Boy Scout Troop #386 to do eight hours of community service to help with upkeep of Maple Hill Cemetery.

•Veolia Environmental Services presented a proposal for renewal of their trash pickup services with the town. It was stated that the company had made only one increase during the past three years. The new three-year contract would keep rates the same the first year and raise rates either by three percent or according to the consumer price index during the second and third years. The contract would include trash pickup at the cemetery and the replacement of damaged trash cans.

•Resident Gail Norton was reappointed to the Ford Home Board.

•Council approved making Internet access available at the offices of the Bicentennial Commission.

•Councilwoman Karen Walker noted that new signs have been placed for the public restrooms at Ribeyre Gymnasium.

•Councilman Joe Straw reported that the town sold the old police car for $3,000.

The public should note that the New Harmony Town Council will next meet on Monday, October 10, at 10 a.m. in the Town Hall to conduct the public hearings on the 2012 budgets for both the Workingmen’s Institute and the Town of New Harmony. The next regularly scheduled meeting of the council is Thursday, October 13, at 7 p.m. in the Town Hall.

Pet owners of Posey County are invited to the second annual blessing of the animals at Trinity United Church of Christ on Sunday, October, 2, at 8 a.m. The service will take place in Trinity’s courtyard unless rain forces everyone inside the fellowship hall.

People with an aggressive pet are asked to keep it in a traveling container or to bring a photo of the animal. Sociable animals may be brought on a leash. Casual clothing is appropriate.

Arrests, from Page 1A Bugtown, about half-way between Poseyville and New Harmony on Highway 68. The extra set of eyes and hands have been critical as the Posey County Sheriff’s Department has been extremely busy.

“We had a few things already going on in the Poseyville area before Officer Saltzman suffered his illness so it is hard to say whether there is a direct correlation between his illness and the criminal activity,” Oeth said. “Most of the things started out as mischief kinds of events and that led into the break-ins of some businesses and things being taken out of unlocked cars.”

There have been a number of cases being worked by Oeth, Detective Tom Latham, along with Smith. They include anything from theft of items from cars to graffiti and vandalism at the local ball field to more serious matters such as breaking into residences.

Oeth confirmed that in one business burglary, Doug’s Standard, a handgun was taken but the handgun has been recovered and is now in police custody. The suspect there is also 17, very near their 18th birthday. The weapon was recovered in a home and some “bait money” has been recovered, as well.

“Given time with the lab testing that has been done, I think time will help answer several questions,” Oeth said. Test results are expected to take four to six weeks to be completed.

Oeth also said he is supportive of Posey County Prosecutor Travis Clowers in his attempts to have waived to adult court these individuals who some are just a few weeks away from their eighteenth birthday.

“They want to do big boy crimes so I believe they should face big boy penalties,” Clowers was quoted as stating recently. He will get no argument from anyone at the Posey County Sheriff’s Department.

Oeth said his department was criticized by some in the Poseyville area for not giving the town as much attention as some individuals felt they should. But Oeth said that unless these folks were up all night, they often were not aware of what was being done in the city not only to curtail the crimes but to prevent others.

Oeth said walking street patrols were done throughout Poseyville during recent nights and that the streets were also patrolled late at night by Smith in his patrol car. Several private citizens have also begun to take an interest in the safety of community residents.

Oeth said several arrests have already been made and the charging has not completely been done in some cases but he believes that all the open cases in the Poseyville area have been solved at the current time. Oeth believes that some of the arrests will help solve some crimes in other communities, some even in Evansville.

“It has been a whirlwind out there,” Oeth said. “We have made arrest of four-wheelers and we believe there are connections with some other things.”

But with Smith living in Poseyville and equipped with a vehicle, response to a recent alarm at the Dollar General Store in Poseyville came within two minutes.

The Red Wagon leads United Way Pacesetters Campaign The Red Wagon Restaurant and Bar, formerly known as the Feed Mill Restaurant in Poseyville, is one of the Pacesetter Companies for the 2011 United Way campaign. They ran their

United Way campaign early and were recognized at the United Way of Posey County Campaign Kick-off Breakfast held on September 15th.

Their employees, along with the employees of the other

Pacesetters help the United Way campaign get off to a great start!

The Poseyville Feedmill, LLC has just recently announced that they did not renew their licensing agreement with the Feedmill Restaurant in Morganfield, Kentucky. As a result, they have changed their name to the Red Wagon Restaurant and Bar, according to Jane Reising, a managing member of the LLC. However, though the menu has changed, the same management, personnel and great service will continue. “Our popular Sunday brunch and weekend buffets will also continue,” said

Brent Tharp, the restaurant’s general manager. “We look forward to allowing our creative and talented team of employees to provide a more varied and healthy selection of food for our patrons,” he added.

The Red Wagon opened in Poseyville as the Feed Mill Restaurant in November of 2008, offering a menu pursuant to a licensing agreement with the Feedmill Restaurant based in Morganfield, Kentucky. The facility has seating for 400 patrons, including a full service bar and a banquet room that seats 100 people. In addition, they offer a full service banquet and catering service with menus

that can be customized to fit any event or budget.

This year’s goal is $640,000. Funds raised in the United Way Campaign go to support 20 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 8383637 or email uwposey@ sbcglobal.net.

Despite living across the bridge, Grider takes pride in New Harmony One of the best neighbors in the Town of New Harmony doesn’t even live there. A native of Washington, Indiana, Bobby Grider grew up in Crossville, Illinois, and today serves as Crossville’s fire chief although he lives now in Carmi, Illinois. Grider is best known, however, as New Harmony’s gas superintendent, water superintendent and street commissioner.

He’s been a town employee since November 2002 when a co-worker in Crossville, Judy Davis, herself a New Harmony resident, convinced Grider the Town of New Harmony needed him as gas superinsuperin tendent. The town has needed him

more and more, adding the roles of water superintendent and street commissioner. New Harmony relies on Grider’s expertise and his certifications and licenses to keep the town running smoothly.

His certifications include a gas operator license that meets federal regulations and a water treatment plant operator license (Grade WT3) in addition to a pesticide applicator license to spray for mosquitoes.

He and his three employees— part-timer Cody Peerman (20) and full-timers Caleb Harvey (23) and Danny Link (21)—are most noticed during New Harmony fes Harmony’ss harvest festival, Kunstfest, and Christmas in New Harmony, held annually the first

weekend in December. He and his crew decorate the light poles, help vendors with their set up and manage the barricades for street closings.

Concerning his crew, Grider emphasizes, “They’re very good help.

Posey County Students join University of Evansville Sororities The University of Evansville is proud to announce that the following local students recently joined sororities: Katie Schmidt of Mount Vernon, who joined Chi Omega and is studying Pre Physical Therapy Kate Higgins of Mount Vernon, who joined Zeta Tau Alpha and is studying Nursing Josie Brown of Wadesville, who joined Zeta Tau

Alpha and is studying Music Therapy Jessie Earle of Evansville, who joined Chi Omega and is studying Biochemistry Emily Jolly of Evansville, who joined Chi Omega and is studying Pre Physical Therapy Tiffany Winternheimer of Evansville, who joined Phi Mu and is studying Psychology These students officially

became new members on September 12 after a weeklong recruitment process that allowed potential new members to learn about Greek life and discover what each chapter has to offer. They are among 122 UE students who joined sororities at the conclusion of Fall 2011 recruitment.

“The University of Evansville Greek system is one of the best in the coun-

try. Outstanding scholarship, remarkable service, vitality, and friendship are the foundational pieces that make our program exceptional,” said Dana Clayton, UE vice president for student affairs and dean of students. “The men and women who belong to our fraternities and sororities are some of the highest profile leaders on campus, both in and outside the classroom. Our

Greek students play a major role in shaping the campus community.”

The University of Evansville’s Greek system consists of six national fraternities, four national sororities, and one local sorority. Approximately 28 percent of the University’s undergraduate students participate in Greek life. Together, they maintain a combined GPA that surpasses the campus

average. Each year, the Greek community raises more than $50,000 for charity and performs more than 9,000 hours of community service.

“By joining Greek organizations, students become part of a solid legacy of leadership and scholarship,” Clayton added.

“Going Greek is an experience that will serve students well beyond their college years.”

Begin an American Essay Contest Focuses on Constitution.

Students and Their Teachers Compete for Cash Prizes Up to $1,000.

U.S. high school students and their teachers are invited to participate in the Bill of Rights Institute’s sixth annual Being an American Essay Contest.

Specifically, students are asked to share their thoughts on the Constitution by answering the following question: “How does the Constitution establish and maintain a culture of liberty?”

The top three student winners from each of the five geographical regions will be awarded cash prizes of $1,000 (First Place), $500 (Second Place), and $250 (Third Place). Teacher sponsors for each student winner will also receive a cash prize of $100.

“The contest not only honors and awards sponsoring teachers, but also equips them with free lesson plans and other supplemental ma-

terials that meet state and national academic standards so they can easily incorporate the essay contest into their classrooms. The Contest is really a tribute to the excellent work teachers do in the important task of civic education,” said Ross.

Over 80,000 students have participated in the essay contest since it began in 2006.

“We are pleased to support the Bill of Rights Institute’s Being an American Essay Contest,” said Dr. Libby O’Connell, SVP, Corporate Outreach and Chief Historian, History Channel.

“The contest encourages students to think critically and truly makes the past relevant in their lives today.”

Poseyville Autumnfest a soggy affair

By Valerie Werkmeister Rain, rain, go away is a mantra many are saying after this weekend’s soggy Poseyville Autumnfest event. Mother Nature did little to help local organizations earn much-needed funds. The deluge of rain, about four inches worth, kept crowds away and forced most attractions to close shop and head home early. It’s too bad umbrellas and rain suits weren’t a featured sale item because someone surely could have capitalized on that venture.

The Poseyville Kiwanis made the decision to postpone Sunday’s parade to next Sunday, October 2 at 3 p.m. Looking on the bright side, perhaps that will give any procrastinators the opportunity to devote more time to decorate their float.

The weekend wasn’t a total bust though. There was a short reprieve from the rain on Saturday which allowed crowds to visit food booths, participate in raffles and visit a few of the other booths.

The rain even held off long enough for the Evansville Fire Performers to conduct their show.

While most organizations report that they were able to do make up some of their Saturday sales during the “dry time”, all of them reported dismal losses due to

Sunday’s rain out.

The Jr. Women’s Club hoped to continue to sell Kuchens on Monday and they decided to continue the baby photo contest this week. Photos of all the babies were taken back to Hirsch’s and will be on display all week. The baby with the most money in the can will win. A winner will be drawn and contacted on Saturday so that they may participate in the parade on Sunday.

Luck-of-the-draw winners from St. Francis Xavier Church were drawn and winners will be published in upcoming weeks of the Posey County News.

The best bakers in the Kiwanis’ sponsored cherry recipe bake-off were also named. First place went to Mary Korff , Fern East won second place and Andrew Hannah placed third. Posevyille Christian Church raffle winners included Christina Tepool, Julia Coulter, Tricia Murphy and Nancy York. York also won a $100 consolation prize.

The church will most likely continue with games and prizes during the Poseyville Town-wide yard sale this Saturday.

Brianna Perry was crowned Miss Autumnfest and was also chosen as Miss Congeniality. She is

the daughter of Dave and Luann Perry of Poseyville.

Morgan Pardon was chosen as the first runner-up. She is the daughter of Troy and Dee Pardon of Poseyville.

Second runner-up was Baylee Pate who is the daughter of Cindy and Dennis Wright and Chet and Chris Pate of New Harmony.

Mia Schmitt was crowned as Autumnfest Princess and was also chosen as Miss Congeniality. She is the daughter of Tim and Donna Schmitt of Poseyville. Jeri Ann Neuffer was chosen as first runner-up. She is the daughter of Dawn and Jerry Neuffer of Wadesville. Arionna Collins, daughter of Randy and Jennifer Collins of New Harmony, was chosen as second runner-up.

The sponsors for the event included CSB State Bank, First Bank, Little Crazy Daisy and The Next Step Dance Studio. Embroidery Direct, Award World and Kiwanis also helped provide gifts for each girl. Frey Brothers Produce helped provide decorations for the stage.

As winners are chosen from St. Francis Quilters raffle, the Jr. Women’s baby photo contest and others that may have been missed due to the weekend weather, results will be published in upcoming issues of the The Evansville Fire Performers were the featured entertainment during the Posey County News.

But the Vikings came right back and drive the ball down the field and Harness scored on a 25-yard run just two minutes later.

But with 4:20 remaining in the first period, the Rangers put another one on the board when Leonard called his own number and went in from two yards out.

The first two-thirds of the second period was a defensive struggle before the Rangers finally got on the board when Josh Voegel took it in from one yard out but the 2-point conversion failed. Still the Rangers were ahead by 19-7 with 3:45 remaining in the first half.

But again, the Vikings were up to the challenge and Harness again got the call, taking it in from five yards out with 2:22 remaining in the half. But that proved to be too much time as the Rangers put the final score of the half on the board with just 22 seconds remaining, scoring on a 5-yard pass play that left the Vikings staring at a 26-13 half-time deficit. Most Las Vegas oddsmakers would have put their money on the Rangers as they took a lead into the locker room and an offense that the Vikings had not been able to stop.

“For some reason, we just had a little trouble adjusting to what they were doing throwing the ball,” Gengelbach said. “It was just one of those things we had to work through.”

But the Vikings came out of the half-time locker room with a new attitude and a new spirit as they marched the kickoff down the field and in a little over a minute into the second half, Wes Harness scored on a 15yard run to pull the Vikings back to within 26-19 as the two-point conversion try was

Turnovers keep Wildcats out of winner’s circle at Boonville

By Steve Joos What proved to be the undoing of the Mount Vernon football team in Friday’s game at Boonville?

Turnovers.

There’s that word again.

The same thing which proved to be the undoing of the Cats at Mount Carmel and Vincennes earlier in the year did them in again Friday in Warrick County, as the Pioneers took advantage of three Wildcat giveaways and took down Mount Vernon 24-14 in Big Eight Conference play.

What did coach Paul Maier think the difference was between victory and defeat for the Cats?

“Turnovers,” Maier said. “We moved the ball well the opening drive of the game, we fumbled a pitch on an option and give them the ball on the 20-yard line. The score at halftime should have been 14-7, or 14-0 depending on that. We had two fumbles, we had an interception, but the interception was my fault. We can’t turn the ball over and win football games. We lost two fumbles and had an interception, we lose by two scores. There you go.”

The Cats were clicking at the outset and in the second quarter, when they scored all of their points and took a brief 17-14 advantage that ran into the third quarter, when Colton Stewart capped a long Boonville drive with a one-yard touchdown run.

Mount Vernon was also driving for a potential game-tying score when Zack Arrigo stepped in front of a the Mount Vernon re-

Maggie Camp starts her swing during a recent Viking win. Photo by Dave Pearce

By Steve Joos It rained on everyone’s parade Saturday at Thunderbolt Pass, but Maggie Camp didn’t seem to mind.

The North Posey senior shot a 77, firing a 35 on the back nine at Thunderbolt Pass, and finished as the top qualifier from a non-advancing team at the Evansville Regional.

Camp shaved seven strokes off her score after making the turn with a 42 on the soggy Thunderbolt Pass course. Her teammates didn’t fare as well, as the Lady Vikings came in fifth with a score of 359, four strokes better than Evansville Sectional champion Memorial (363).

The other regional golfer from Posey County, Mount Vernon’s Kendyl Bourne, just couldn’t buy a break and finished with an 89 (44-45).

“I rained hard for the first three holes,” Mount Vernon coach Dave Bell said. “It was that way for everybody, but Kendyl just couldn’t get a break. Her round wasn’t horrible, but it wasn’t what she wanted to shoot. She made a few pars, but couldn’t string anything together. I was proud of her. She has been a very good player over the last four years and I’m very proud of her and what she was able to do during her career.”

Bourne shots 44 at the turn and was hoping that things would turn around on the back side, but she continued to be snakebit after making the turn and finished with an 89.

Camp, on the other hand, had another rough opening round, but just like she did

in the Sectional (under much better weather conditions), she recovered on the back nine for a 42-35-77 and the top score among the individuals, one stroke better than Darrah Holder of North Davies (78) and Carly Waggoner of Vincennes Rivet (80).

All three girls will join the team qualifiers this weekend at The Legends Course in Franklin Friday for the IHSAA state meet.

She was also second overall, four strokes in back of Castle’s Kayla Kattherhenry (73). Holder also tied North’s Lauren Byers for third overall as both girls shot 78s.

As for the rest of the Lady Vikings, their day at Thunderbolt Pass was a lot like their day at the Sectionals, up and down.

Allison Koester picked things up on the back side, just like Camp, whittling five stroke off her score to finish with an 81 (43-38), just missing a trip to the state finals, while Kendall Crowder took three strokes off her score and ended with a 99 (51-48). Taylor Patton, on the other hand, wasn’t as fortunate. After shooting a 49 on the front side, Crowder added four strokes to her score and came in with a 49-53-102.

Shelby Ackerson shot a 114 (57-57).

Castle won the meet with a 324, seven strokes better than runner-up North (331), while Jasper was a stroke back at 332.

The top three at Thunderbolt Pass were well ahead of the rest of the pack. Rivet was a distant fourth with a score of 355, four strokes ahead of the Lady Vikings.

New Albany was seventh with 383, followed by Gibson Southern (388), Corydon Central (394), Floyd Central (396), North Knox (400) and Springs Valley (425).

But the rain began falling early in the second half and got worse was the game progressed. The flag, which showed no movement during the playing of the National Anthem, stood almost straight out to the north as the wind and rains pounded the field and emptied most of the stands on both sides of the field.

Vikings come from behind to defeat Tecumseh, win a pair this week

By Dave Pearce It is beginning to look like the North Posey Viking volleyball team could be reaching their peak at the right time.

The lady Vikings fought back from two games down against a very solid Tecumseh squad on Thursday evening to claim a 1512 win in the final game and a fifth game Pocket Athletic Conference win.

But it was anything but easy.

For the first two games, the Lady Braves appeared to have things going their way.

They were smooth, their sets were right where they should be, and they appeared to be loaded with confidence. As a matter of fact, North Posey held a 23-19 lead, the Vikings surrendered six consecutive points to lose the first game 25-23.

And the second game wasn’t really much better. The Lady Braves appeared to be hitting on all cylinders and although the Vikings appeared to be playing hard, nothing was going their way. Coach Gary Gentil took his second and final time out of the second game with his team behind 13-3.

The Lady Vikings managed to get back into that game somewhat as they pulled back to within 21-15 before trading points with the Lady Braves and dropping the second game 25-17. At that point it appeared that it would only be a matter of time.

“The first game we came made it close and the second game, we really struggled at the start,” Gentil said. “We talked about a couple things that have happened this week as the result of slow starts. And they responded really well. I can’t wait until we get completely healthy and are able to play at a high level all the time.”

The third game was certainly a see-saw battle as neither team could find much breathing room. The Vikings took a 10-8 lead on a Deana Lindauer block only to have the Lady Braves fight back and take a 13-11 lead. As a matter of fact, the Vikings were down 19-13 when Jordan Wassmer stepped to the service line.

When the lady Braves finally managed a side out, the Vikings had fought and clawed their way back to within a point at 18-20 and had forced a Tecumseh time out. That resulted in a Wassmer service error but this Viking team was in it for the long haul.

A Jordan Butler spike and subsequent

service winner finally tied the game at 20 before Tecumseh again took a 21-20 advantage.

Facing four points from elimination, the Lady Vikings took control.

The Vikings’ most reliable server took the line in the person of Kendall Reidford and a Caitlinn Herrmann kill tied the game at 21.

The senior setter served out the third game and gave her team the momentum it needed.

But again, a slow start haunted the Vikings in the fourth game. Still facing elimination. The Vikings fell behind 7-2 and 9-3 before they again could find any momentum. Again, it was Reidford at the line when the Vikings began to take control.

Facing an 11-7 deficit, the Vikings were victorious on two extremely long rallies and had pulled to within 7-11 when Reidford scored on a tip and then went to the service line.

Three serves later the Vikings were within 11-10 and the Lady Braves called a time out. But it appeared the Vikings were the ones who benefited from the break. Reid’s service run ended with the Vikings leading 14-12 and they would never trail again in the fourth game.

Consecutive spikes by Butler and Megan Cumbee combined with some amazing saved by libero Megan Redman gave the Vikings a 6-point lead and Tecumseh would get no closer as Butler got the big spike to end the game and send the match into a fifth and deciding game.

Again, the Vikings fell behind early and trailed 6-3 in the deciding game which would be decided on the first team to reach 15. Gentil called time out and the girls responded.

“We finally started playing our game,” Gentil said. “There were times in this match where we were reacting from our heels. In that last time out, I told them they had to get away from everything Tecumseh was doing and just play our game.”

And play their game they did.

The Vikings began playing the kind of volleyball that they play when they win. A big Butler serve and a big Herrmann spike forced a Tecumseh time out with the Braves leading 9-7. But right out of the time out, A Butler spike and “that Reidford girl” was back at the line. When her serve was broken, the Vikings led 10-9.

North Posey High School senior Jordan Butler spikes a winner over the outstretched hands of the opposition in volleyball action this week. Photo by Dave Pearce The game would be tied at 11 before a pair of hot Lindauer serves and excellent overall court play gave the Vikings a 1311 lead, forcing Tecumseh to use their final time out.

They were able to score one point after the time out but an unreturnable Megan

Redman serve gave the Vikings their ninth win of the season against 11 losses.

“We can’t play the scramble game and beat anyone,” Gentil said. “But they are a well-coached team. We just have to stay in the fighting mode and stay out of the scramble mode if we are going to be successful.”

Lady Wildcats take most important matches in 2-of-3 week

By Steve Joos The Mount Vernon volleyball team split its matches this week, but at least there was an extra meaning in the teams they beat.

The Lady Wildcats shook off a slow start Saturday morning to beat the Vincennes Lady Alices 25-22, 25-12, 25-16, capturing the Big Eight Conference end of their triangular at the Lady Alices gym. On Tuesday the Lady Cats defeated Bosse in five sets, toppling a prospective Class 3A Sectional rival and probably SIAC champion.

Their matches against two stronger, but smaller schools weren’t as successful, as Mount Vernon dropped a 25-14, 20-25, 25-21 decision to Tell City after losing a home-court match to Mater Dei on Thursday.

“We had a rough start against Vincennes,” coach Andi Allford said. “We weren’t communicating early in the match and we didn’t concentrate very well.

We were able to adjust after that and we did a lot better in the other sets.”

Jacey Ritzert helped the team pick things up as the match progressed, finding a hole in the Lady Alice defense and getting the ball to it.

Allford was pleased with the team’s effort against Tell City, despite the outcome of the match.

“Tell City has a solid team,” she said. “The had a big threat who played the middle and the outside. I think my team played well, but we just weren’t able to get points when we needed them.”

The team especially struggled at the net, as the Lady Cats committed a number of blocking errors during the match.

Brittany Wallis served 10 straight points to help Mount Vernon to a the secondgame win, which squared the notch at one set each.

Allford does think her team can play with most of the ones from Evansville, even if the Lady Cats split with two squads from the city last week.

The Lady Cats started out well, but as the evening

went on, things went down hill against Mater Dei, losing 21-25, 25-22, 25-20, 25-14.

“We came out to play tonight, but we didn’t finish,” Allford said. “We came out, but you’ve got to stay until game over and we didn’t do that. A disappointing night, they knew what they had to do, but it’s a matter of doing it when times get tough.”

Mount Vernon started out well, taking advantage of aggressive swinging at the ball to keep Mater Dei from getting into their offense and that enabled Mount Vernon to take the opener.

The Lady Cats had the lead late in the third set, but Mater Dei took control at 19-18 and went from there to post a 25-20 win.

In the fourth set, a side out on Stemple’s first serve gave the ball back to Mater Dei, which went from there to open a 6-0 lead. Mater Dei built a 17-5 bulge before Mount Vernnon was able to mount a challenge late in the contest.

Mount Vernon’s first five points of the last set were rally points which broke Mater Dei serves. A kill off a Wallis offering and an out of bounds Mater Dei volley were the first service points of the fourth game for Mount Vernon.

seven yards out and Jake McConnell added the extra point, giving the Pioneers a 7-0 lead.

Mount Vernon got a break when the Cats deflected a Boonville punt to the Pioneer 27-yard line with 10:15 to go in the second quarter. Isaac hit two passes, both to Tyler Ritzert, moved the ball to the three-yard and one play later, Isaac took it in from a yard out.

Nick Theodosis tied the game at 7-7 with the extra point.

McConnell’s 34-yard field goal with 4:10 left on the clock gave the Pioneers a 10-7 lead, but Mount Vernon answered with a seven-play, 63-yard drive which took up all but 36.5 sec-

onds of the remaining time in the first half.

Craig Dick had 18 yards on one carry, but Isaac did a lot of the work, ticking off 35 yards on three of the last four plays and putting the ball in the end zone giving Mount Vernon the lead. Theodosis added the extra point to make it 14-10 at halftime.

Maier said that the team has to learn that it’s important to hang on to the ball for the entire game.

“We’ve got to keep learning from this and move forward,” Maier said.

“They’ve got to understand that they’ve got to take care of the football, it’s a four-quarter proposition, it’s not

something that you can do some of the time, it’s something you’ve got to do all the time.”

Isaac accounted for most of the Wildcats’ 226 yards in total offensive, completing 12 of 14 passes for 123 yards and racking up another 62 on the ground, which accounted for most of the Wildcats’ 103 yards rushing.

Stewart rushed for 79 yards and two of Boonville‘s touchdowns.

The Pioneers played with confidence, Maier said, adding that his team is getting better each week and they will be a good team at some point.

Now, if they could just hang on to the ball better.

Tennis Wildcats win two of three

By Steve Joos Two out of three isn’t bad, especially if it’s a school from outside Evansville going up against the Southern Indiana Athletic Conference.

That’s what the Mount Vernon boys’ tennis team did last week, beating two teams from the city, including one of their more formidable prospective Sectional foes.

The Wildcats swept the singles spots Thursday night en route to a rain-shortened 3-1 victory over Mater Dei, one night after dominating Bosse 5-0.and losing 3-2 to North.

Against Mater Dei, the key to victory was simple for Mount Vernon, the singles.

Jevin Redman, Ross Canada and Todd Sheffer each blanked their opponents in the second set while winning their spots. Redman beat Jarret Scott 6-2, 6-0 at first singles, Canada topped Boston Knapp 6-3, 6-0 and Sheffer bested Matthew DeVault 6-1, 6-0.

Mater Dei’s win came at first doubles, where Paul Elpers and Mike Elpers topped Layton Hopper and Seth Reeves in a tie-breaker.

The second doubles teams couldn’t get on the court due to the weather.

Mater Dei took the reserve meet 2-1.

The Cats snapped back Wednesday with a 5-0 victory over visiting Bosse.

The recovery was more like a rout, as the top two singles spots went to the Cats in straight sets.

Redman was a 6-0, 6-0 winner over Dennis Valies 6-0, 6-0, and Canada posted a 6-0, 6-0 win over Alex Norton at second singles.

The order of the day otherwise was 6-0, 6-1, which was the score as Sheffer topped Jake Douhitt at third singles and the second doubles duo of Cruet Crabtree and Hunter Wilson took down their opponents. Hopper and Reeves won their match 6-1, 6-0.

The reserves posted a 5-1 victory.

The Cats started their battles with Evansville on Tuesday, dropping a 3-2 decision visiting North.

Redman was a 6-0, 6-1 winner over Cale Heiman at first singles, while Sheffer was a 6-3, 6-3 winner over Alex McCamel at third singles for Mount Vernon’s only wins over the Huskies.

Canada went down fighting, as he dropped a 6-4, 7-5 decision to Addison Hill at second singles, while the Huskies nailed things down with a doubles sweep. Wilson and Crabtree got a few more licks in at second doubles, but fell to Trevor Poirier and Jordan Greenwell. Jacob Poirier and Nick Mount Vernon Senior Curt Crabtree returns a ball to Courey were 6-1, 6-0 winners over Hopper and Reeves, his North opponent during his doubles match.

County teams score in cross country

By Steve Joos Four members of the Mount Vernon girls’ cross country team won medals at Saturday’s Crawford County Invitaitonal class meet.

Freshman phenom Toni Waddell was fourth among the frosh, posting a time of 21:12, while Brianna Reis (22:24) finished 12th among the seniors and Chelsea Bell (22:59) came in 15th.

McKenzie McClarney (22:47) also brought home a medal, taking 14th among the sophomores.

“We took eight girls to Crawford County,” Lady Wildcats’ coach Jackie Maier said. “There were some girls who we didn’t run and so to have four girls place is really an achievement.”

Such key runners as Rachel Cash and Olivia Baldwin either sat out the meet due to injuries or had to honor other commitments.

Ashton Fuelling (26:21) was 27th among the sophomores, while Cally Schisler (26:56) came in 33rd among the juniors, Grace Baldwin (26:56) 44th among the freshmen and Heather Zwikelberg (36:00) 50th among the freshmen.

Sean Ritzert was 20th in the senior boys’ race.

Ritzert broke into the top 10 at the recent Terre Haute Saving Bank State preview meet, finishing night in the Class 1A-3A race with a time of 18:38.

Ryan Dick was 14th with a time of 19:04, followed by Collin Knight (19:30) in 22nd place, Dane Wilson (19:36) in 25th, D. J. Dickens (21:13) in 45th, Adam Hoehn (21:25) 47th, Mitchell Jackson (22:22) 52nd, Dylan Roy (25:12)

75th and Andrew Stevens (25:13) 76th.

Mount Vernon was third among the smaller schools with 115 points, behind Culver Academies (25) and Clay City (67). Park Tudor (119) and Shakamak (124) rounded out the field.

Rappites take one game before falling to North Posey

By Steve Joos Once the North Posey volleyball team got going, they played a lot better in last week’s match at New Harmony.

The Lady Vikings shook off the nerves in each of the first three contests and went on to post a 25-16, 25-15, 21-25, 25-14 win over the Lady Rappites.

“At the beginning, we were sluggish,” Lady Vikings coach Gary Gentil said. “At the beginning of a varsity match, no matter who you’re playing, you can’t be that way. We settled down and I think it ended up 25-16. Each time we played, we got better for

us. Each time it progressed, we did better.”

The main thing Gentil took from the decision was simple; it was a win.

“A win’s a win,” the coach said. “That’s three in a row. Right now, we’re not the healthiest bunch. There are a number of adjustments that we have to make, so we’ll take the win.”

Start sluggish and get better as the might progressed?

Well maybe, but the Lady Rappites got their licks in at the end of the sets, as well.

The match, like the rest of the regular season’s contests, will be seen as learning experiences for the Lady Rappites, according to assistant coach Ashley Robinson.

“We told them, ‘we’re going to start fresh, we’re going to work on some different things’ and we told them we’re going to look on every game as just practices,” Robinson ssaid.

“We’ve got a lot of young girls, a lot of raw talent, so every day from this day on is like a practice.”

The Lady Vikings led 2213 late in the first set, but New Harmony scored three points before they were finally put away. In the second set, the Lady Vikings once again had to shake off a pesky Lady Rappite attack, surviving another sluggish start to go up 8-7

on a net error which broke Alyssa Scherzinger’s serve.

The Lady Vikings reeled off three straight points with Jordan Wassmer at the line en route to a 23-13 lead after Kelsey Everley’s serves resulted in another big North Posey run.

But once again, New Harmony got to make a last stand, scoring off a Morgan Matthews serve before losing the ball in the new and misfiring on Megan Redman’s first offering to give North Posey game point and a 2-0 advantage.

The same pattern help in the fourth set as North Posey stormed out to a 21-9 lead before New Harmony got going.

“A couple of times, they got a good serve in,” Gentil said. “We couldn’t defend it, we tried to do a couple of things and they didn’t go our way. A varsity team’s going to have a good server and they’re going to get a good serve in. The way we started off tonight, I’m happy that we got better.”

Since there was no reserve match, Gentil put the reserves in during the third set and it showed, as the reserves were nervous at the outset.

New Harmony took advantage of those nerves to take a 5-1 lead and maintain that four-point advantage for most of the game.

North Posey tried to minute a comeback, first scoring four points with Redman at the line to ties things up at 11-11 and then with Kendall Reidford in serve, forging another tie at 17-17.

After the second deadlock, a battle of attrition ensued with the two teams trading rally points until the Lady Rappites opened things up off Matthews’ serves, scoring the last three points of the game for a 2521 victory.

The Lady Rappites also had their moments in the fourth game and made it appear for a while that were going to at least try and repeat the route they took to a win at Washingotn Catholic, where they dug them-

Robinson thought that the win at Washington Catholic gave the Lady Rappites some confidence, but North Posey’s defense was different than anything they’d seen this season, which meant that they had to take what they learned from beating the Lady Cardinals and apply those lessons against the Lady Vikings.

“Once they got the hang of it, it started working in their favor,” she said.

“They’re finally starting to use things that they’ve learned and use it to their advantage.”

New Harmony paid more attention to the North posey defense and did a better job of finding the open holes in the third game, Robinson said, adding that the team did a better job of communicating what they saw on the floor.

The Lady Vikings were playing a setter-based defense which left the 10foot line open, Robinson explained, adding that the corners were closed, forcing them to swing for the middle of the court. Something the coaches have told them not to do.

The coach was also pleased to see the Lady Rappites relax and stay in the game.

Scherzinger played well at the net, while Matthews played her usual strong game all over the court, the coach said. Robinson was also pleased with newcomer Kate Newman, who came in and showed some promise in her first match.

Gentil was especially pleased with Deana Lindauer’s efforts in the backcourt, as well as the efforts put in

by Deana Lindauer, Wendi Simpson and Caitlin Herrmann.

Kelsey Owen led the Lady Rappites with six aces, while Scherzinger turned in 16 assists. Kendall Morris paced the squad in digs and Matthews in kills.

The Lady Rappites showed much more improvement on Saturday, when they went 1-2 in their invitational tournament.

New Harmony defeated Agape Christian 25-19, 2519 in between losses to Tecumseh 25-20, 25-18, and Bosse 25-8, 25-19 in the opener.

“We played better in that last game,” Prewitt said.

“We’ve still got some things we need to work on, but we’re doing well.”

The Lady Rappites gave Tecumseh a bit more than it may have bargained for, pushing the eventual champion Lady Braves in both sets leading for most of the first set until Kara Snow served three points to put Tecumseh in front 15-14.

A rally point and three tallies off Jessica DeckardMills’ serves restored New Harmony’s edge, but that was short-lived as Kamlyn Spivey went to the line and Tecumseh put over three straight to put the Lady Braves in front fro good.

The Lady Rappites made the Lady Braves earn the win, however, forcing them into a duel of rally points down the stretch with just three of the team’s last six points coming off serves.

The back-and-forth continued in the second game, as Matthews helped rally the team from a 10-7 deficit with four service points only to have New Harmony lose the ball on a net error. Two

points off Brenna Floyd’s offerings broke the 11-11 tie. The war of attrition was reignited, with Tecumseh crafting a three-point bulge until Floyd served out.

“We’ve got a lot of different players that we’re trying to work into different spots,” Prewitt said.

“We were just playing as a team and hitting their spots.

Tecumseh was hitting their serves and getting the ball over.”

The Lady Rappites struggled in their match against stronger Agape Christian team—until Kendall Morris served with the Illinois school leading 15-12 in the first game.

Morris dished up a sevenpoint string that put New Harmony in the driver’s seat at 19-16. Deckard-Mills all but finished up the first set.

Another three-point run opened up a 9-5 lead in the second game then stretched it to 18-12 before holding off Agape Christian for the win.

“We served pretty well against Agape Christian,” Prewitt said. “We had a couple of good passes. Bosse was just playing hard. There were intimidating.”

Prewitt feels that the team is making progress and that they should be ready for the Sectionals, when they could be facing the Lady Braves again.

On Thursday, the Lady Rappites got off to a good start, but couldn’t hang on and dropped a 23-25, 2517, 25-16, 25-13 decision to visiting Mount Carmel.

The Lady Rappites were up 21-19 in the first game and then had to rally after four straight points put the Lady Golden Aces up by a point.

In the second game, New Harmony was still ahead early in the period, but couldn’t keep up after the Illinoisans put over five points to open an 18-11 lead.

In each of the sets New Harmony lost Thursday, the team was competitive, only to see Mount Carmel get on a roll and basically take over the game from there.

The Lady Aces had another five-point run to open the third game and then needed another run to hold off New Harmony after a three-point streak off Matthews’ offerings pulled the Lady Rappites to within three points at 13-10.

In the fourth game, New Harmony battled back from a 6-2 deficit to tie the game at 11-11 before the Lady Aces pulled away again.

The two teams played a reserve match which was abbreviated due to a lack of players on New Harmony’s part. The small squad size was complicated buy a varsity match which lasted four sets, Prewitt said.

DELINQUENT PROPERTY TAX SALE NETS $97,766 FROM 99 PROPERTIES PAID PRIOR TO THE SALE AND SOLD AT THE SALE MT. VERNON, INDIANA- 9/12/2011

POSEY COUNTY AREA PLAN COMMISSION

BY MINDY BOURNE, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Posey County Officials held their annual delinquent property tax sale on September 12, 2011. The sale was conducted by County Auditor Nicholas Wildeman and County Treasurer Linda D Curtis. A property tax sale is required to be held in each Indiana county for those properties where an owner of real estate fails to pay the property taxes from the prior year’s first property tax bill installment. A tax lien on the property may be sold to satisfy the tax obligation to the highest bidder. The owners of the properties sold at the tax sale have one year to pay the delinquent property taxes, costs and penalties to keep the property. The sale, conducted by Indianapolis-based SRI Incorporated on behalf of Posey County, offered 88 parcels to 20 bidders. SRI conducts tax sales in 83 counties in Indiana, Michigan, and Colorado. This year’s tax sale resulted in the collection of $97,765.73 from owners and buyers. 99 parcels had all taxes, penalties, and costs paid in full. Treasurer Linda D Curtis said, “Tax sales are a necessary function of county government. It is only fair to the people who pay their property taxes every year to pursue those that do not pay.” For the 62 properties that did not sell, the county commissioners acquire a tax lien. The county commissioners may offer those properties to the public at a sale at a later date. County Auditor Nicholas Wildeman commented, “It is our ultimate goal to return these properties to the tax rolls as quickly and efficiently as possible. Property owned by people that pay their property taxes ensure our local government services are fully funded.” For more information on property tax sales, visit www.sri-taxsale.com.

The Indiana Department of Transportation & the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Division of Outdoor Recreation thru the Recreational Trail Program is planning to undertake the New Harmony Trails Phase II project, funded in part by the Federal Highway Administration. The project will consist of the continuation of a trail around the Town of New Harmony. The project is located in Sections 35 and 36, Township 4 South, and Range 14 West, as well as Section 1, Township 5 South, Range 14 West, Harmony Township, Posey County, Indiana.

The project area is approximately 1.86 miles in length and 8 in width with the northern terminus of the proposed trail situated north of the Town of New Harmony tying into the Northeastern portion of the existing New Harmony Trails Phase I project. From this terminus, the project area runs in an east-northeasterly direction along the Wabash River for approximately 2,280 ft, at which point the project area heads in a southerly direction for approximately 2,060 ft, to North Street which concludes the Northern portion of the trail. The project begins again at Steam Mill St. and Third St. then goes South and runs approximately 300 feet then turns to the west for approximately 790 ft along South St. R/W and then heads in a southerly direction along a power line utility corridor for approximately 1,910 ft. At this point the project area runs in a westerly direction for approximately 1,740 ft and intersecting with State Road 69, which is South Main Street in the Town of New Harmony. Lastly, a portion of the trail also projects to the North along the Southern leg along East St. to the paved road near the school.

Date: 9/2/2011

The proposed project will not impact any properties/districts that are listed on or are eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The Federal Highway Administration has issued a No Adverse Effect for the project due to the fact that the proposed project will not visually or materially impact the New Harmony Historic District because no construction activities will be undertaken within the district. In accordance with the National Historic Preservation Act, the views of the public are being sought regarding the effect of the proposed project on the historic elements as per 36 CFR 800.2(d), 800.3(e), and 800.6(a)(4). Pursuant to 36 CFR 800.6(a) (4), the documentation specified in 36 CFR 800.11(e) is available for inspection in Archaeological Consultants of the Midwest. This documentation serves as the basis for the Federal Highway Administration’s no adverse effect finding. The views of the public on this finding are being sought.
