Presidential candidate’s father: Christians need to cast ballots By Emma Rausch emma@thepaperofwabash.com NORTH MANCHESTER — Pastor Rafael Cruz, father of Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz, called Christians to the voting polls during his speech at Victory Christian Fellowship on Wednesday, April 6. Texas Sen. Cruz is one of three remaining candidates – along with businessman Donald Trump and Ohio Gov. John Kasich – running for the Republican nomination. On Tuesday, April 5, the night before Pastor Cruz’s talk, Sen. Cruz the Wisconsin primary, earning 42 delegates and narrowing the gap between his 517 delegates and frontrunner Trump’s 743. Kasich currently has 143 delegates. To earn the Republican Party’s nomination, a candidate needs 1,237 delegates. Only 882 are still available. In a speech to his supporters on Tuesday, Sen. Cruz declared the win “a turning point” in the GOP election.

His father agreed. “I think the turning point occurred last night with a great victory my son had in Wisconsin,” Pastor Cruz told The Paper of Wabash County following his speech. “I think that is a tremendous victory. I think the momentum is all with Ted Cruz. “We’re expecting great things within the coming weeks.” He “absolutely” credited his son’s victory to Christians getting out to the voting polls. “We had 117 pastors and Christian leaders that endorsed Ted in the state of Wisconsin and about 100 of those were pastors and maybe about 17 of those were Christian leaders or leaders of Christian organization,” Pastor Cruz said, answering a question The Paper posed during the question and answer section of the night. He continued stating that many pastors believe that “they cannot say anything about politics from this pulpit” or publically endorse a political candidate. “That is a lie that they don’t have any civil rights,” he explained. “Let me tell you something, the First (continued on page 21)

After one week of early voting, 69 people have cast ballots in the Wabash County Clerk’s office for the May 3 Primary Election. For the same time period in the 2012 election, 25 people had cast early ballots. Wabash County Clerk Elaine Martin said she doesn’t know why the increase this year. “I really have no idea, but my guess would be that’s it two things: first, the popularity of early voting has caught on in our county and we are told constantly by the voters that they love the convenience of early voting; and secondly, I think this particular presidential election is certainly unique and interesting,” she told (continued on page 22)

Local police jump to help a friend By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com For the last five years, 13-yearold Brenton Yarger has raised funds to help the local Shop With a Cop program. Over that time, Brenton, a seventh-grade student at Northfield Jr.-Sr. High School, has raised nearly $19,000 — $18,568 to be exact — to help local police officers take underprivileged children from around Wabash County shopping at Christmas. On April 2, Brenton found himself in need. High winds and snow that blew through the area

throughout the day lifted his much-loved trampoline off the ground, smashing it into nearby trees. “My grandpa and I forgot to tie it down,” Brenton said, sitting on an ottoman in the living room of his grandparents’ home in rural Urbana. “It just blew away on the hill.” Brenton’s grandmother, Brenda Jackson, added, “I looked out the window and it was rolling up the hill.” The trampoline is one of Brenton’s favorite things. “Brenton was pretty upset,” she (continued on page 23)

Local man seeks to launch grassroots effort to help fight community drug problem By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com A Wabash County resident has had it with the drug problem facing Wabash County, and is getting ready to take a stand to help fight the problem. Gary Henderson, better know to most as “The Dog Man of Wabash County,” hopes to launch a grassroots, educational program aimed at youngsters to teach about the problems of drug abuse. He hopes to incorporate a costume character into the program and pass out anti-drug material at various town festivals, fairs and other events. “I’ve been doing the (dog) training for years,” Henderson told The Paper of Wabash County. “We use the dogs there to bring out the issues with the children, then we have to figure out how to deal with the children. “I’ve always been involved with kids. I’ve always worked with them with the

dog club. We’ve been effective with them in there, so we decided it was time to get out in the community. “I just feel the Spirit saying, Gary, put up or shut up. Do something about it.” Fighting drug abuse is just one aspect of the program, tentatively entitled “The Big Dawg.” The second goal of the program is that the police officers aren’t always bad. “They’re not always the bad people,” Henderson said. “Yes, they come and take your parents away, but that’s because your parents are doing bad things.” The third goal, he continued, is to try to incorporate as many existing resources now available in the community into the program. For example, Henderson recently had members of the Wabash County Drug Task Force speak at a Wabash County 4-H Dog Club meeting. “The 4-H kids have been very receptive to it,” he said. Henderson admits

there’s still a long way to go. “It’s still in the beginning stages, and what I’m trying to do is get a roundtable of people together,” he said. “We all have different strengths and stuff. Mine is training dogs. “There are so many other things we can do. But I think as a community we need to get together and put our resources together, rather than say I’m doing this or I’m doing that. “There’s more power in numbers. We just have to stand up.” Henderson’s plan is to target the younger children in the community with the information. “My goal is to help the little ones and educate them on how to stay away from this, not with the 16and 17-year-olds,” he said. “I think there’s enough out there for the older kids. By the time they’re 16 and 17, it’s too late.” He said he also has spoken with Mayor Scott Long, Sheriff Bob Land and Wabash Police Department

officials about his plans. All of them, he said, endorsed his proposal. Long told The Paper of Wabash County that he would support a grassroots effort to help fight the drug problem. “I’ve said all along that tackling the drug problem in the City of Wabash and Wabash County is going to take the whole community,” he said. “I can’t do it myself. My police department can’t do it by itself. We’re going to have to get everyone involved, from the faith-based community to volunteers, like Gary Henderson, who want to see something done about the drug problem. “Obviously, my schedule is pretty full, and if somebody else wants to take on a leadership role in getting the community involved, I’ll support them any way I can.” Anyone interested in helping Henderson’s efforts should contact him through his Facebook page, “The Dog Man of Wabash County.”

Kansas singer still living a dream Band to perform April 21 at Honeywell Center By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com

Ronnie Platt is living a dream life. Eighteen months ago Platt was a lead singer and keyboard player in the band, Shooting Star. After Steve Walsh, lead singer for the rock band Kansas announced his retirement, Platt received a call from drummer Phil Ehart, asking him to come to talk to the band about replacing its former singer. That was in July 2014, and he performed his first concert with the band in September of that year. Platt and Kansas will be returning to the Honeywell Center’s Ford Theater on Thursday, April 21, for a concert. “It’s a dream come true. How could it go any better?” Platt told The Paper of Wabash County during a recent

telephone interview. “Getting the job was just surreal and exciting in itself. Then doing the gigs and getting to play in front of all these people. Then have the opportunity to record with the band and sign with a label and do a new record. It’s unbelievable to me.” Eighteen months into the job, he still at times finds it hard to believe. “It’s still very surreal,” Platt said. “When I’m at home and hanging out with my friends and everything seems like normal. My friends are like, ‘You know, you are the singer of Kansas now.’ Really? It is a trip. “I’m in fear that I’m going to wake up and be behind the wheel of my Kenworth, dragging my 53-foot trailer through the streets of Chicago. I only did that for 25 years.” With about two months between the time he joined the band until he performed his first concert with it,

Platt and the band spent the time rehearsing over and over. “My Lord, it really was (intense rehearsing),” he said. “I do have to say I had a head start because in so many of my cover bands through the years, we did a lot of Kansas. Not only was I always a huge Kansas fan, but so were a lot of my band mates, so we did a lot of Kansas. Being a huge Kansas fan, I had a pretty good start on all the music.” But there’s a difference between being a fan and actually performing the band’s numbers. “There’s a difference between a listening level and a performance level,” Platt said. “You know, you start dissecting parts and learning them. It’s intense to bring it up to that level, a high standard in quality in the music, so you have to be on top of your game. The two months before the show I was Kansas 24-7. I think I was memorizing lyrics in my

sleep.” Platt’s life has been a whirlwind of touring with the band, as well as writing songs and recording its newest album, “The Prelude Implicit.” Kansas performed 95 concerts in 2015, and has more than 70 planned for the first part of 2016. “I look at the schedule now and it becomes more intense by the day,” Platt said of the band’s touring plans. “Here we are in April we’re doing 15 shows in 15 different cities just this month. It’s pretty much following suit every month after this. “It’s funny, when I joined the band, some of them said to me we’ll slow down in December, January, February, for obvious reasons – it’s the winter time, traveling is a little more difficult. It’s never happened since I’ve been in the band. It’s been pedal to the metal ever since. “I’m loving every minute of it.” Kansas is performing its second concert at the Ford Theater. It first appeared at the venue in July 1995. “You’re going to hear the traditional stuff,” Platt said of the upcoming show. “We’re not going to be playing anything off the new record, quite yet. I

think Kansas fans come expecting musicianship and a great show. “Hopefully we will have entertained them enough to help them forget about they’re problems for a day. Let everybody have an out of body experience. Have a good time and everyone be entertained.” Working on “The Prelude Implicit” was something Platt had little experience with. “It’s one gift to be able to perform with the band live, but to be in the studio with these guys is beyond surreal for me,” he sad of the experience. “Just to experience everybody’s musicianship and the work ethic of this band, it’s just amazing. Everyone brings not a little bit to the table. Everyone brings a lot

to the table. It’s just a great working environment.” Platt was thrust into another new area with the new album, that of songwriter. “Again, it’s the gift that keeps on giving,” he said. “To sing live with the band, then to be able to record and also have the opportunity to write; I just fell into that duty as a fluke. “Phil gave me a song and said, ‘Hey, write lyrics to this and see what you come up with.’ Of course, it’s a collective effort. I wrote lyrics for one song and Phil and Rich (Williams, guitarist) looked at it and they said, ‘Hey, this is really good. Try another one.’ “One song turned into two and two songs turned into four, four turned into six. It’s

quite flattering to get their approval on my lyric writing. “Being a musician my entire life, being in bands, I wrote songs and about what I was feeling. But now, when you’re in the studio, you’re writing songs for Kansas. The same band the legendary Kerry Livgren wrote for. Talk about setting the bar pretty high. It was something I took seriously and something I took very much to heart. I only pray people like it as much as we do.” The new album, the band’s 15th studio recording, is expected to release in midSeptember on InsideOut music. Tickets for the Kansa show are $35, $45 and $75 and are available at the Honeywell Center box office.

Beki Brindle Band to close Thursday Night Blues series By Emma Rausch emma@thepaperofwabash.com The Beki Brindle Band returns to the Historic Eagles Theatre on April 14 as the final performance of the Thursday Night Blues series. Last year, the band opened for the series in January. Beki Brindle, band namesake and lead singer, told The Paper of Wabash County she loved the local crowd and venue. “Personally, I loved it, the band loved it because the audience was super respon-

sive,” she said. “Usually in theaters, people are amazing, (but) sometimes you get up on stage in a town in a big theater or maybe even a small theater and you can’t really see the people with the way the lights are and you don’t see people moving. “But that didn’t happen in Wabash. We could see the front rows and people were just super responsive and weren’t inhibited about showing it or yelling out something.” The theatre, Brindle noted, was “absolutely stun-

ning” and “the acoustics are absolutely pristine.” “You can see why vaudeville acts could go in there back in the old days, without electricity, without microphones and just perform,” she continued, “and even if you were the last person in the last row in the corner, you could hear just as well as someone in the front row and we learned that just doing sound checks. “It was quite an experience. … We really enjoyed ourselves, the crowd and the venue.” Brindle, a Hoosier-

born blues lover, was discovered at Indiana University in 1982. Since then, she’s performed internationally and in 2014 was inducted into the New York Blues Hall of Fame. After her performance last year at the Eagles, Brindle traveled to the United Kingdom for a threepart tour and is heading back in July, she said. “So we’re doing it

all over again,” she continued. “(The tour) was great. We sort of did it in three legs because the first tour spent in the midlands and southern England; the second tour we spent in Wales and London and the surrounding areas. “The third tour we hit some of the places we had hit before, so midlands, Wales, eastern England and then

Beki Brindle Band to close Thursday Night Blues series... continued from page 7 also we were in Ireland.” Following her tour, Brindle and the band began working on their new album, “All Kinds of Beki.” The album was picked up by Random Chance Records and is now set to release

Friday, April 15. Although it’s a day early, Brindle said she will have her album and download cards available for sale at the Eagles Theatre on Thursday. “There’s a lot of blues, there’s a lot of different styles of

guitar that I’m playing (on the album) which is really why I wanted to call it ‘All Kinds of Beki,’” she said. “It’s blues based and Americana based, but I wanted to really point out, I guess, with the album, with the songs

that I don’t just play one tone of guitar.” The album features artists including John Sebastian, Chris White, Vivienne Boucherat and Pete Levin. Those attending Thursday night’s performance will catch a

glimpse of the new record along with favorites from last year’s performance, according to Brindle. “We’re going to throw in some of the newer ones and maybe more of the traditional ones we didn’t do last time,”

she said. “My cousin, Ellen (Mock, Honeywell Center corporate relations manager), who’s a jazz singer, we worked it out and we’re going to do a tune together, so that’s definitely a special treat for me,

because she is a fabulous singer.” Tickets are available for $12 in advance or $15 the day of the show and can be purchased by visiting honeywellcenter.org or calling the box office at 260563-1102.

IU’s Crean to speak at Wagon Wheel By The Paper staff WARSAW — Indiana University basketball head coach Tom Crean, AP Big Ten Coach of the Year, will appear at Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts on Saturday, May 7, at 6

and 8:30 p.m. Crean has been the Hoosier’s head coach since 2008, and had served as Marquette University’s head coach for nine season prior to his move to Indiana. As Indiana’s coach, Crean is credited with the success-

ful rebuilding of the program from several years of Big Ten and NCAA tournament drought. His coaching style has tended to emphasize fastpaced play, including transition offense and defensive press. The media and fel-

low coaches unanimously voted Crean Big Ten Coach of the Year after the Hoosiers defied earlyseason expectations with an outright conference title. The team would go on to lose early in the conference tournament

FAME Festival to salute bicentennial By The Paper staff The Wabash Foundation for Art and Music in Education (FAME) Festival will return to the Honeywell Center for its 10th year on Saturday, April 16, with a salute to Indiana’s bicentennial. Earlier this year, Indiana Bicentennial Committee in Indianapolis officially endorsed the Wabash FAME Festival and designated it a Bicentennial Legacy Project. The festival’s theme, “Artfully

Celebrating Indiana,” will spotlight the state’s history with crafts, workshops, and student performances and art displays. Guest visual artists, including locals Candie Cooper McCoart, Karen EiltsWalter and Susan Stewart, will teach 30minute workshops throughout the day. McCoart will lead sessions in up-cycled metalworking during which children will bend, hammer and shape to create a pendant or ornament from metal fishing lures. Sessions are

• Contractor Equipment • Hand & Power Tools • Lawn & Garden • Plumbing & Painting • Much More

scheduled at 10 a.m., 11 a.m., noon, 1:30 p.m. and 2 p.m. Walter will instructs children in the art of Robert Indiana’s block printing. Indiana, a Hoosier artist from New Castle, is known for artwork including the “LOVE” sculpture, which was first created as a print for the Museum of Modern Art’s Christmas card in 1965 and can now be found in cities such as New York and Philadelphia. Children will work with the sculpture for the workshop. Sessions are scheduled at 9 a.m., 10 a.m., 11 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 2 p.m. Stewart, who is known for her fused glass artwork, will have children working with pre-made glass birds, adding wings and legs to the birds as well as several other details before attaching the finished bird to a small board to complete the project. Each session is limited to 15 children. The sessions are scheduled at 9:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 2 p.m. Artisan Lena Gray will instruct children about wool, from the sheep to the finished project, and provide insight of the processes pioneer women once used to created yarn to use for clothing. Children will create a wooly pencil at sessions scheduled at

9:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m., 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. The Imaginarium make-it and take-it craft area will take place in the skating rink and feature Indiana-related projects, including Indianapolis 500 racecar making, Native American picture writing and a collage of Indiana logos. Parents may participate in Indiana art by coloring a placemat in the downstairs lobby, located at the foot of the Honeywell Room lobby. Returning for its second year, the Composition Project will feature music composed by 23 fourth grade students throughout the county. Dr. Tim Reed, M a n c h e s t e r University Music Department chair, met with the students at four after-school session in September and October. Students learned the basics of composing and then created their own musical themes using Garage Band software on iPads. The children incorporated melody, rhythm and mood into their individual

Candie Cooper McCoart works with a family, demonstrating how to make a craft at the 2015 FAME Festival. McCoart will return this year for the 10th annual FAME Festival, this time demonstrating how to make jewelry and ornaments from metalworking. This year’s festival will be featuring local artists centered on the theme, “Artfully Celebrating Indiana,” to celebrate the state’s bicentennial. Photo by Emma Rausch compositions. Reed then took the individual works and wove them together into one composition entitled “FAME Suite.” The Fort Wayne Jazz Combo will perform the piece at 3 p.m. in the Ford Theater and will be accompanied by an interpretive dance by the Playhouse Studio of Dance dancers. Northfield High School band director Todd Ward will direct music. The dance was choreographed by Andrea Lanham.

‘The Curb’ returns to brick and mortar By Emma Rausch emma@thepaperofwabash.com

After 26 years, the Curb-A-Teria restaurant, also known as The Curb, is reopening a brick and mortar business at the former Wabash Donut Shoppe. Originally opened in 1963 by Richard Johnson, the restaurant closed in 1990. In 2014, Mr. Johnson’s son Jim Johnson decided to bring back the business on a smaller scale, a food truck called “The Curb on Wheels.” Johnson worked at the original Curb-ATeria as a teenager and managed it and its sister restaurant, Curby’s Crispy Chicken, at different times, he said. When he decided to

bring the restaurant back, Johnson was a regional manager for a local gas station, which ended up closing down, “and so I thought maybe I’ll get back into concessions and bring back some of the old Curb recipes,” he told The Paper of Wabash County. “The first year, we just had long lines,” Johnson continued. “Everybody (asked), ‘When are you going to open a location? I said, ‘Ah. I’m not interested in doing that. We’ve already done that.’ “The second year we did twice or maybe three times as many venues and festivals and still kept hearing the question, ‘When are you going to open a location?’ And so I thought I guess I better take a look at

that.” Johnson said he began searching locations in Wabash and narrowed down the options last fall. He officially purchased the Wabash Donut Shoppe on Tuesday, April 5. “We’re going to be working over the course of the next two months, hopefully open the first part of summer,” Johnson said. “We’re going to be open for lunch and supper, those hours, and we will not be open on Sundays. Got to have a day to recuperate.” The restaurant’s dining room will remain the same size with booths, tables and an old-fashioned counter bar for dining in. Johnson said he also plans on keeping the building’s drive

thru operational, but for picking up orders only, not taking orders. When he was looking to set up a location, Johnson said he didn’t want anything as large as the restaurant used to be. “I just wanted something on a little bit smaller scale, so that was about the right size,” he continued. “I liked the idea that it’s downtown. There’s a lot of stuff going on downtown, a lot of restorations

and nostalgia type things. “So I thought it’d be a good fit for us and people downtown may want to not have to drive out too far to get their hamburger or tenderloin.” Locals keep anticipating The Curb’s return because “we were kind of an icon in Wabash as far as businesses go for 26 years,” according to Johnson. “My parents owned it for 27 years,” he continued, “and there

were literally hundreds and hundreds of people that worked for us from the community and if they didn’t work for us, then they ate there. “There’s a little bit of nostalgia factor there, plus we had fairly unique food. You couldn’t get food that looked or tasted like ours anywhere else.” Since the restaurant closed a quarter of a decade ago, Johnson said he’s heard cries of “Oh I

wish I had a Curb burger” or “Man, I miss those onion rings” from the community. “People remember it,” he continued. “It’s good food. They enjoyed going there and everyone’s fired up that it’s going to happen again.” The restaurant will continue to be a family operation, Johnson said, with his son helping him manage The Curb and The Curb on Wheels.

‘The Curb’ returns to brick and mortar ... continued from page 15 “(Since) it’s a smaller operation, we’re not going to be able to have everything that we had before,” Johnson said, “but our most popular item is the Curb burger, the tenderloin and the onion rings. “We’ll have other items too that I’ll announce at a later time, but some of the

things that we used to have we may introduce on a limited basis and I’m not going to say what those are at this time. “I don’t want to cause mass hysteria, civil disturbance or anything,” he added with a laugh. “A couple of those things I believe people will be really excited about.”

One other special feature the community can expect to see with The Curb’s return is memorabilia from the restaurant’s past in Wabash, according to Johnson. “So many employees that used to work there, their kids have heard about ‘Oh back when we worked at The Curb’ or they’ve

heard about The Curb and so forth,” he said, “we’re going to have a lot of memorabilia up inside as décor and old employee photos. “We may even have guest employees, like former employees, come in and maybe (be special guests). So they can come in and maybe reminisce.”

Michael “Mike” Campbell Loved music Feb. 28, 1956-March 31, 2016 Michael “Mike” Ray Campbell, 60, Peru, died Thursday, March 31, at Duke’s Memorial Hospital, Peru. Mike was born Feb. 28, 1956, at Wabash County Hospital to Kenneth Ray Campbell and “Neva” Joann (Preston) Campbell. He was the oldest of four children. Although Mike never had children of his own, he enjoyed spending time with his many nieces and nephews. Mike was a lover of music. You would rarely find him without a stereo or the radio blasting his favorite tunes. He fought a lifelong battle with diabetes and the health problems that ensued, but this did not stop him from living his life. He overcame addiction and was clean and sober for 28 years. He devoted part of his life to working in an addiction counseling center and always had supportive words for those battling addictions. Mike leaves behind Brenda Monetti, his partner for 10 years, and his beloved dog, Buddy. He is also survived by his brother, Steve (Shelby) Campbell, and his sisters Connie (Matt) Wolf and Lisa (Jon) Richards; eight nieces and nephews; nine great0nieces and nephews; and three great-great nieces and nephews. There will be no funeral services, as Mike always said, “I don’t want you all gawking at me when I’m dead.”

Wabash resident charged with child molestation By Emma Rausch emma@thepaperofwabash.com A 16-year-old Wabash resident was arrested Tuesday, April 5, for two counts of child molestation following a Wabash Police Department investigation. The WPD received a report on Friday, April 1, that the 16year-old male had had sex with a girl younger than 14years-old. In a follow-up investigation on Monday, April 4, with local Department of Child Services, the victim’s parents informed police that they discovered their daughter was seeing the 16year-old in January and eventually found out the two had had consensual sex, according to the prob-

able cause affidavit. The victim’s parents told officers that the boy had contacted them and “begged that charges not be filed,” the court documents continued. The victim’s parents told the 16-yearold to leave their daughter alone and told their daughter she was not allowed to speak or see the boy, according to the documents. The victim’s mother advised that recently, “she and her husband were contacted by another parent who advised them that (the girl) had been seeing (the boy) again,” according to Detective John Krhin’s statement in the probable cause affidavit. When the victim’s parents confronted their daughter, they were informed that

the two had again had consensual sex on March 26 while the girl was staying the night with a close friend. When Krhin spoke with the victim, she confirmed her parents’ statements and “advised that she did not think (the boy) should be in trouble because she and (the 16-year-old) thought the ‘Romeo and Juliet’ law applied,” according to the affidavit. According to state law, the “Romeo and Juliet” law applies to children 14-years-old and older to engage in non-forced sexual activity with others close in age. However, when the victim and the boy had had sex, the victim was 12- and 13years-old, and therefore the law does not apply, according to the affidavit.

ISP to host summer camps By The Paper staff Every summer since 1970, the Indiana State Police has offered law enforcement summer camps for Hoosier youth. To date, over 45,000 young Hoosiers have been afforded the opportunity to spend face time with law enforcement officers in a positive environment. Countless camp graduates have gone on to careers in law enforcement and other related fields. In fact, many of the camp graduates go on to be adult camp counselors, after they begin their law enforcement careers. The camps are designed to help students get an up close and personal view of law enforcement and the criminal justice system, but more importantly, gain respect for themselves and others. This is all done through programs that reward hard work, dedication and team work. The camps always include demonstrations by Indiana State Police SWAT, Explosive Ordinance Disposal, Scuba and other specialty teams. Troopers volunteer to put on demonstrations on a variety of topics. The camp staffs are handpicked law enforcement personnel who dedicate their time to preparing youth for their futures. The Indiana Troopers Youth Services schedule for the 46th year of summer camp programs is complete. Coordinated by the Indiana Troopers Youth Services organization, the camps will be staffed by Indiana State Police officers and officers from other law enforcement organizations.

The 2016 Camp Schedule is as follows: The Law camps will have two locations: V i n c e n n e s University, June 15 -18, Sgt. Eric Dunn, Director. Anderson University, July 6-9, Sgt. Tony Slocum, Director. The Career Camps cover grades 9 -12 with three locations: V i n c e n n e s University- July 15-18, Master Trooper Troy Boyd, Director Trine UniversityJuly 15 -18, Master Trooper Marc Leatherman, Director St. Joseph College (Rensselaer) - July 17-22, Trooper Danielle Elwood, Director The ITYS is going to host three Pioneer Camps: Potato Creek State Park- St, Joseph County, Director Trooper Ben Ennis Mounds State ParkAnderson, Director Trooper Jeremy Mason Lincoln State ParkSpencer County, CoDirectors Sgt.

Silver Lake man charged in truck theft By Emma Rausch emma@thepaperofwabash.com A Silver Lake man was arrested Thursday, March 31, in connection to a stolen vehicle from D&B Auto Sales in Wabash. The Wabash Police Department arrested David C. Small, 43, at approximately 2:13 p.m. following the auto theft investigation. On Friday, March 25, D&B Auto Sales reported that a male subject had visited the facility to test drive a red 1994 Chevrolet pickup truck and had been gone for three hours for the test drive, according to the probable cause affidavit. On Tuesday, March 29, Det. Capt. James Kirk received information that Small was suspected of the theft and that he had spray painted the vehicle, according to the court documents. Kirk had also learned that the North Manchester Police Department had stopped Small for driving while suspended “when he was driving the truck which had been painted,” Kirk wrote in the affidavit. NMPD Officer Josh Brainard confirmed the plate number matched the stole vehicle, the affidavit continued. On Thursday, March 31, at approximately 1:57 p.m., WPD Capt. Ryan Short located the stolen truck in a church parking lot on East Hill Street and D&B Auto Sales recovered it, according to Kirk’s statement. Kirk received a call from Short later that day, at approximately 2:13 p.m., and was informed that Small was observed walking down Carroll Street

DAVID SMALL

near Maple Street, according to the court documents. The officers followed the lead to a residence in the 200 block of Maple Street and when Small exited the residence “he agreed to ride with me to Wabash City Police (Department),” according to Kirk. Kirk read Small his right at the police department and agreed to speak with officers about the incident, the affidavit continued. “(Small) advised that he did go to D&B Auto Sales and took a red (Chevrolet) truck for a test drive and didn’t return it,” Kirk said. “(Small) told me he used it to take scrap metal to the scrap yard. (Small) also admitted being stopped by the North Manchester Police officer. “(Small) admitted spray painting the red truck black.” Police estimated damage at $1,000 to repaint the truck, according to the affidavit. “(Small) admitted to me that he parked the truck at the church lot on East Hill (Street),” Kirk said, “and when he discovered the truck missing, threw the keys away somewhere (along East Hill Street).” Small was charged with felony auto theft and possession of stolen property.

The pastor as an individual has a right under the First Amendment to endorse whomever he wants.” Pastor Cruz also shared why he’s so confident with his son as the right choice for president. “Before my son left high school, he was passionate about the Constitution,” he said. “He was passionate about the Declaration (of Independence), about free markets, about limited government, about the rule of law and that passion

became like fire in his bones. “And the reason I know my son, Ted Cruz, will not compromise his principles in Washington (D.C.) is that fire is as alive today as it was over 30 years ago.” Pastor Cruz also recalled when he was a conservative political activist for the Ronald Regan presidential campaign in the 1980s, his son was 9-years-old and “he got a dose of conservative politics for 15 straight weeks” at the dinner table. The pastor’s speech advocated the importance of Christians participating in presidential election, emphasizing that if Christians act now, they “won’t have to hold (their) noses” going to the voting polls in November. “I want to share with you a message that I have been sharing all across this nation for three years,” he said. “A little over three years ago, I was in Ames, Iowa, at a pastor’s conference and at that conference I heard a statistic that really bothered me. “(This) survey said that in the 2012 election, there were 12 million Evangelical Christians not regis-

tered to vote and another 26 million that didn’t vote. That’s a total of 38 million Evangelical Christians that didn’t vote out of an estimated total of 89 million, and that’s about 40 percent of E v a n g e l i c a l Christians that didn’t vote and from what I understand that’s about the same amount in the Catholic Church. “So, if 40 percent of people of faith are not voting, we’re going to get what we deserve.” Pastor Cruz echoed his son’s stances on several political topics, including religious liberty. In his talk, he claimed that the Supreme Court’s decision on June 26, 2015, to grant same-sex marriage is an “ attack” on religious liberty. “But I’ll tell you there’s a silver lining behind that decision, because you see that decision is much more than just a redefinition of marriage,” he said. “It’s really a direct frontal attack on religious freedom. … But I’ll tell you what. The Devil always overplays his hand. “And as a result of that decision on June 26, it awakening the

Northfield lineman honored at Griddys award program By The Paper staff A Northfield High School football player was recently among those honored at the ninth annual Griddys award program. Cale Dyson, an offensive and defensive lineman for the Norse, was honored with others on the 2015 Small School All State Offense during a March 20 program at the Indiana Farm Bureau Football Center in Indianapolis.

The event was designed to honor the best of the best in Indiana high school football. Honored during the event were 12 state finalists, six coaches of the year, two assistant coaches of the year, six players of the year, two all-state teams, a media award winner, a lifetime achievement award winner, a badge of courage winner and a spirit of sport winner. The All-State teams were divided into Big

School and Small School teams. The Big School team consisted of Classes 4A, 5A and 6A, while the Small School team consisted of Classes 1A, 2A and 3A. Also revealed was the 2016 Prime Time 25. Those are juniors who will appear on the cover of the 2016 Indiana Football Digest. The Prime Time 25 were selected to represent the best of Indiana football based on athletic and aca-

Slabmasters open tourney season By The Paper staff The Indiana Slabmasters had its season opening crappie tournament on Saturday, March 26, on Geist Reservoir. A record number of 45 teams showed up to fish under clear skies that started cooler in themorning and warming up to 60 degrees. The tournament winners, Jason Shingler and Mike Arnold, weighed in their limit of seven crappies, weighing 8.07 pounds. Shingler and Arnold found some fish suspended in the back of a small cove

late Friday. They started their day in that location. However, not finding the fish suspended there on Saturday moved in closer to the docks and found the crappies holding near the docks. They caught their fish spider rigging around the dock using a combination of jigs and live bait. Second place went to Larry Yates and Doug Allen. Yates and Allen are past champions and have won several Slabmasters tournaments. They caught their fish shooting docks, using artificial bait. All seven of their fish were

caught off one set of docks, their weight of 7.76 pounds has them in second place for the tournament and the B& M points race. Third place was Myron Etchison and Charlie Hildreth They are fishing together this year, having fished with different partners in the past. Each of these fisherman have won Slabmaster tournaments previously. The two, with 75 years experience combined, used several techniques to catch their seven crappies weighing in at 7.54 pounds. Most of us found the fishing extremely tough for the day, the

DNR to host Family Trout Fishing Day By The Paper staff COLUMBIA CITY — The third annual Family Trout Fishing Derby will take place from 9 to 11 a.m., April 16, at Morsches Park in Columbia City. The event is free, and no fishing license or trout stamp is required because Saturday, April 16, is one of four Free Fishing Days offered by the DNR.

Before April 16, the DNR will stock approximately 400 rainbow trout in the pond at the park’s north end. The trout will measure about 10 inches long. No trout fishing will be allowed until Saturday morning. DNR staff will be on hand to lend fishing poles to anglers under age 18. Bait will be available. Staff also will offer instruction for beginners. Prizes

will be awarded to youth anglers who catch the largest trout and register their fish on site at the time of their catch. The event is sponsored by the Columbia City Walmart, Pro Tackle Outfitters, and the Jim “Moose” Carden Kids Fishing Clinic. The event is hosted by the Columbia City Parks Department. The pond has a fishing pier and open

access for shore fishing. A restroom facility will be open, and ample parking space is available. The limit will be five trout per angler. “We want families to come out and experience trout fishing,” said Tyler Delauder, DNR assistant fisheries biologist. “It is fun, easy, and you can take your trout home to eat. We will even show you how to clean the fish.”

Early voting up

... continued from the front page

The Paper of W a b a s h County. “We’ve received many phone calls and in person questions from voters asking how they can switch their politics from one party to the other. That goes for both the Republicans and the Democrats.” Voters are able to switch parties, Martin said. “In Indiana, unlike some states where you’re required to vote however you are registered, a voter is not a registered to a specific party,” she said. “A voter can vote whichever way their little heart desires at any given election. It’s only during the Primary that you have to ask for R or D in any event. “A voter can ask for a Republican ballot

this year, and a Democrat ballot the next primary, and vice-versa. Some voters apparently have been under the belief that once you vote a certain way that you’re ‘locked’ into that way until you file some sort of paperwork with us to switch. That is not the way Indiana works.” Early voting began Tuesday, April 5. It will continue from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday this week and next in the County Clerk’s office, 69 W. Hill St. It also will take place from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. April 2529, also at the clerk’s office. Saturday voting hours will be available at three locations on April 23 and again April 30.

On April 23, voting will be available from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the clerk’s office, at the Liberty Township Fire Department, 12 S. Wabash Ave., LaFontaine, and at the Peabody R e t i r e m e n t Community, 400 W. 7th St., North Manchester. Voting will be available from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. April 30 at the clerk’s office, the Liberty Township Fire Department and at the Timbercrest R e t i r e m e n t Community, 2201 East St., North Manchester. The last day for early voting will be from 8 a.m. to noon Monday, May 2, at the clerk’s office. Indiana Secretary of State Connie Lawson said casting a

ballot early is an easy way to avoid the Election Day rush. “Registered voters can go to their county clerk’s office with a valid, governmentissued photo ID to vote early,” she said in a news release. “Voters do not need a reason to vote early; simply show up and cast your ballot.” Before heading to the polls, Lawson noted, voters can go to www.indianavoters.co m or use the Indiana Voters app on their smart phone to look up which candidates will be on their ballot. Voters enter their county of residence, name and date of birth. “Who’s on Your Ballot?” will list the offices, candidates’ names and party just as it will be listed on Election Day.

It’s his way of calming; it’s how he works his day out.” She began to search the Internet to see how much a replacement might cost. “Then I happened to think, I’ve seen them on Facebook several times, maybe someone might have one,” she continued. So Mrs. Jackson posted a picture of the smashed trampoline, along with an explanation of what had happened and that she and her husband, David, were looking for a used one to replace it. That’s when Brenton’s friends in uniform stepped in. The wife of a Wabash County Sheriff ’s deputy saw the posting and showed it to her husband. He contacted the other departments around Wabash County, and they quickly had enough money to buy Brenton a new trampoline. “He told us they were going to buy him a trampoline,” Mrs. Jackson said. “I asked, ‘Who’s they?’ and he said, ‘All of the departments.’” The Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department’s Reserve Unit offered to pay for the entire trampoline. However, Mrs. Jackson said, that request was turned down by the project’s organizers because they knew members of all the various departments would want to help purchase the item. “With it being Brenton, they knew everyone would want to help,” she said. Asked to identify the deputy with whom she had initial contact, Mrs. Jackson declined, noting that none of the officers wanted attention for their good deed. She said she expected Brenton to be excited with the news that he was receiving a new trampoline. “When I told him what they were doing, his face lit up,” she said. “He said, ‘I’ve got such great friends.’” Brenton reiterated that point, saying, “They’ve been such nice friends to me for the last five or six years or so.

Mayor reflects on first 100 days... continued from the front page ers. But every day is something different. “It’s everything I thought it would be and more.” Long thanked Vanlandingham for working with him during the transition period. “I had to retire from the police department on Dec. 1, so I had the month of December,

less the holidays, to come down to City Hall whenever I wanted,” he said. “(Mayor R o b e r t Va n l a n d i n g h a m ) allowed me to come in and we went over various items they were working on in the tail end of that administration that we’re working on in this one. “The transition was

very smooth.” Among the issues discussed during the one-on-one interview in the mayor’s office were the Stellar Program, the city’s work on unsafe structures and the local drug task force. “The Stellar Program is a four-year program,” the mayor reminded citizens. “In

the first year of it, you don’t see a lot of handson work. There’s a lot of work behind the scenes as far as engineering and design of the various projects, and meetings taking place to coordinate all the activities. “We are getting ready to see some construction phases starting.”

As for unsafe and dilapidated homes, Long said his administration will continue addressing the issue as needed. “My goal is to keep the homes standing, to get them repaired and keep them on the tax rolls,” he said. “Those that are truly unsafe that need to be brought down because they are unsafe, we’ll continue to do that.” He said he would also like to explore the possibility of donating lots that had homes demolished on them to Habitat for Humanity. “They can build a house, help a young family out and continue to keep a home on the tax rolls,” he said. The Drug Task Force is still operating, Long said, though admittedly the number of officers serving it is down “through natural attrition through a number of retirements.” Retirements have hit the Wabash City Police Department extremely hard. In addition to

Long’s retirement, several other officers have retired and at least one other has quit, making that department five or six officers short. “We’ve hired two,” he said. “We need to hire four more. They’re currently accepting applications. Once we get the city police department back to full staff, I expected Chief (Matt) Bruss and Assistant Chief (Bob) Pilgrim back to the Drug Task Force. Currently we have one officer working there and the County Sheriff ’s Department has one officer.” A North Manchester Police Officer who had been on the task force has retired. “I’m not sure what the status of a member coming from Manchester is, but I’m sure we will get it back up to full strength,” Long said. “They are continuing their efforts with the two personnel they have right now.”
