Trial date set in LaFontaine homicide By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com

He praised his opponents and thanked them all for running a clean race. “I didn’t know what to think going into it,” he said. “I’ve worked with Ryan and I’ve worked with Steve. I’ve know Glenn; I’ve done business with Glenn. I’ve know Walter through our reserve program. I didn’t know what to anticipate, but it was an extremely clean race.” He said his committee is going to regroup and keep pushing forward in anticipation of the November elec-

Trial dates of Aug. 21-22 have been set in Wabash Circuit Court for Corey A. Kelch. Kelch, 22, Marion, is formally charged with murder and robbery in connection with the April 25 death and robbery of Jordon Richards, LaFontaine. An automatic not guilty plea was entered on his behalf during a hearing on Monday morning, May 7. Kelch was taken into custody Friday afternoon, May 4, at a home in Marion, and was transported to the Wabash County Jail, where he is being held without bond. Kelch, under questioning from Judge Robert McCallen III, said he plans to hire an attorney to represent him. His attorneys are Scott Lennox and Joseph Sobek of Warsaw. Richards was found shot to death in his home on Wednesday, April 25, in what officials eventually ruled a homicide. A second suspect in the case, Kaleb Marin, 21, Marion, was one of three people killed in a twovehicle accident on Sunday, April 29, in rural LaFontaine. According to a probable cause affidavit filed by Indiana State Police Detective Michelle Jumper, cell phone evidence allegedly link both Kelch and Marin to Richards’ death. A home health care provider who discovered Richards’ body told police that Richards had told her on April 24 that Marin was going to spend the night with him. Richards was left a paraplegic as the result of a 2016 traffic accident. He recently received a $100,000 settlement and recently purchased the home at 123 Clear Creek Drive in LaFontaine. He lived there about 10 days before he was killed. The health care worker told police that she believed between $10,000 and $20,000 remained in the home, as well as several guns. Investigators found neither guns nor money at the home. A friend also told police, according to the affidavit, that two people had stopped by late April 24 to purchase marijuana from Richards. Marin allegedly went outside and sold them the marijuana, telling them they couldn’t stay “because ‘Mexicans’ were coming over with cocaine,” the

Baker gets GOP nod Pearson, Dillon win council races By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com

Ryan Baker topped a five-person field Tuesday, May 8, to win the Republican nomination for Wabash County Sheriff in the 2018 Primary Election. Baker received 2,149 votes (40.79 percent) of the vote, while Ryan Short received 1,408 (26.72 percent) to finish second. Steve Hicks was third with 1,141 (21.65 percent), Glenn Butcher had 309 and Walter Woods had 262.

The results were announced by Wabash County Clerk Elaine Martin to a crowded room about 7:30 p.m. After he was declared the winner, Baker received a hug from his wife, Gina, and congratulations from both Short and Woods. “I don’t know what to think,” Baker told The Paper of Wabash County moments later. “It was a strong race. We did everything we could do. “I’m so proud of all the people who worked with us. We really busted our tails — our entire committee, everybody.”

Martin said Indiana’s “sore loser law” prohibits any candidate who lost in a primary race from refiling with a different party or as an independent in the General Election. Those candidates, however, can file for a different office. Breaking down the numbers, Baker won 18

of the county’s 26 precincts. He and Hicks tied for one precinct, Pleasant 2, with 56 votes each. He finished second in seven of the remaining precincts. Hicks won five precincts, plus Pleasant 2. He finished second in three. Short won four precincts and finished second in 15 others. “It was a tough race,” Short said. “I

knew it was going to be close. With five people running I knew the vote was going to be split. We all had good credentials, so I knew it was going to be a tough race to win. “I’m still a Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department employee,” he continued. “I still go in there and do my job, just as I do any other day. I’m proud to do that. I’m going to work for whoever is sheriff, just as if I were the sheriff and would expect the same from them. “We did a lot of work. It just wasn’t enough.” In races for the Wabash County Council, Barbara Pearson defeated Michael Ridenour, 722525, in the 2nd District Race, while Matt Dillon

Photos by Joseph Slacian defeated Leroy Striker, 757-597, in the 3rd District Race. Pearson received 57.9 percent of the vote to earn the nomination and a chance to retain the council seat to which she was appointed earlier this year. She replaced Jeff Dawes who was forced to resign from the post after moving out of the district.

Ryan Baker (center) chats with Marti and Leroy Striker as the candidates await the results to be announced. “It’s a bit overwhelming right now,” she said. “You get out there and you pour your heart and soul into it. It’s always a relief to actually win and see the numbers. All I can say is I just appreciate everybody in District 2 that cast

their vote for me and put their confidence in me. I will serve them as hard as I did to get this win.” Pearson won five of the six precincts that comprise the district. Ridenour won the Noble 3 precinct. Dillon won six of the

seven precincts in the third district. He and Striker tied in Noble 8, each receiving 135 votes. “I just want to say thank you to everyone in District 3,” Dillon said, adding that he also wanted to thank Striker. “He’s a great guy. “I just want to thank everyone in Wabash and I will continue to do what I’ve done the last four years.” None of the remaining countywide seats had opposition. Winning the GOP nomination in those races were William C. Hartley Jr., Wabash County Prosecutor; Lori Draper, Circuit Court Clerk; Eric Rish, County Recorder; Kelly Schenkel, County Assessor; Jeff Dawes, County Commissioner District 2; Matthew Mize, County Council District 1, and Kyle Bowman, County Council District 2. There was only one contested race for township trustees, and only one contested race for the various township boards. In the race for Lagro Township Trustee, Eric “ET” Terrell defeated incumbent Andrew DeLong, 336295, to win the GOP nomination. In the Lagro Township Race, Deb (continued on page 3)

House of Representatives. He won the race and will face Democrat Dee Moore in the November General Election. Republican Andy Zay and Democrat Gary Snyder were unopposed for the 17th District seat in the

Indiana Senate. Wabash County voters supported Mike Braun (41.17 percent) over GOP challengers Luke Messer and Todd Rokita. Braun will face Democrat incumbent Joe Donnelly in November for Indiana’s U.S. Senate seat.

GOP voters backed Jackie Walorski in her bid to retain her U.S. House of Representative’s 2nd District seat. She received 74.44 percent of the vote, compaired to Mark Summe, who received 25.56 percent. Walorski will face Democrat Mel Hall in November. Hall won the local and district wide race to receive the Democrat nomination. In Wabash County,

Hall received 314 of the 688 votes cast in the U.S. House race on the Democrat ballot. Pat Hackett was second with 135 and Yatish Joshi was third with 101. Also running were Douglas Carpenter, Roland Leech and Josn Petroff. Although the Primary Election took place Tuesday, parties and independents are still able to place candidates on the ballot for

unfilled seats. “The deadline for the Democratic or Republican parties to conduct a political party caucus is June 30, 2018,” Martin told The Paper. “The deadline to file a declaration of candidacy to fill a vacancy on the General Election for a local office is Wednesday, June 27, 2018. A copy of that declaration must also be filed with the chair-

man of the caucus at least 72 hours before the time set for the caucus. “Monday, July 2, 2018 by noon is the deadline to file a petition of nomination to place an independent candidate or minor party candidate on the 2018 General Election ballot.” The General Election is Tuesday, Nov. 6.

SQU I RREL CREEK

LAKETON — Laketon area residents may soon see an increase in their monthly sewage bills. The Laketon Area Regional Sewer District met Thursday, April 26, to vote on a proposed $5.60 monthly increase, effective July 1. “This is being considered because there was a rate study, performed by Umbaugh and Associates, that determined that the rates presently in effect are insufficient to sustain the sewer district on a longterm basis,” attorney Steve Downs said during the meeting. “ Residential sewer customers will pay $65 monthly beginning July 1. The rate will increase again to $69.60 a year later, July 1, 2019. Dave Hawkins motioned, Bill Parker seconded, and the ordinance passed first reading 3-0, with one voting member absent. The sewer district will have a public hearing at 6 p.m. Thursday, May 17, to hear public comment and vote on the second reading of the ordinance, which will be adopted should the vote be favorable. Meetings occur at 10457 N. Ogden Road the third Thursday of each month. According to president Stan Bagley, the rate increase in part stems from North Manchester’s recent

wastewater rate increase, also recommended by Umbaugh. The Laketon district’s wastewater is run through grinder pumps in and around Laketon, and pumped to North Manchester for treatment, Bagley said. The town charges the district for treatment service, with that cost being passed to Laketon customers. Rates for various types of customers are set using the Indiana Department of Environmental Management’s Equivalent Dwelling Unit, with one single family residence, apartment or mobile home equalling one EDU. Per the ordinance, commercial rates assess beauty salons, food service operations and offices with showers at a rate of .11 EDU per customer, seat or employee, respectively. A factory with showers is also assessed at .11 EDU per employee, while offices and factories without showers are assessed at a rate of .06 EDU per employee. The fire station is assessed at .11 EDU per firefighter, and the sewer district office is set at one EDU. Day care centers are assessed at .06 EDU per person, schools at .05 EDU per pupil, and churches without kitchens at .01 EDU per sanctuary seat. An assembly hall is set at one EDU. According to the ordinance, rates are set for the maximum

WCS hires new football coach By Josh Sigler jsigler@thepaperofwabash.com

Wabash City Schools’ Board of Education approved the hiring of Adam Handley as its new varsity football coach when it met Monday, May 7. Handley came highly recommended by outgoing Athletic Director Matt Stone.

Stone will move into a new role next year as both the Chief Business Officer and Transportation Director. He had doubled as the AD and CBO this past year. Outgoing football coach Floyd McWhirt is set to take over the AD position, but Stone was heavily involved in the hiring process of Handley. “This is the fourth

time we’ve hired a football coach since I’ve been here, and I can also say this is the time that we’ve had the best candidates,” Stone said. “I think that says a lot about what Floyd has done with our football program that more people want to come here. He did a great job making us competitive, getting us a winning season, putting us back in a place where people want to be here.” Stone said Handley aced his interview, a major factor in the hiring decision. “When I called references, every one of them said to me ‘he’s a kid magnet,’” Stone said. “I don’t know how you can get a better compliment. As a

ADAM HANDLEY teacher and coach, he’s someone kids want to be around, someone who attracts kids.” Handley is a football historian of sorts, and was attracted to the job for not only the Apaches’ recent success, but also its rich history as far back as the 1920s. “And, coach McWhirt has been here for a few years and got the program going in the right direction, so I thought it’d be a great opportunity to jump in,” Handley said. “(I want to) take this program and take it through the roof.” Handley served as an assistant coach at Marion High School for four years, and then served this past season as an assistant coach at Taylor University. “I’ve had experience in about three of four different positions as far as a positions coach,” Handley said. “I’ve been an offensive coordinator in two of those years at Marion. Then tak-

ing the collegiate level last year, it was just about learning how high school kids want to get to the next level and being able to bridge that gap to get kids to the collegiate level.” Being a “kid magnet” starts with relationships, Handley said. “I’m energetic, I’m enthusiastic, I just love to be the guy and have the guys come to me with problems or anything,” he said. “I’m always open to talk with anybody. And, then in the hallways, catch them in the hallways and ask them how their day is going. Essentially caring about them is my main thing.” Handley will replace McWhirt as the Project Lead the Way Engineering teacher, with a starting salary of $40,000. Handley will also receive an annual stipend of $7,790 as the football coach. Handley was just one of numerous personnel moves Monday by the board. The board also approved the recommendation to hire Emily Tracy for the O.J. Neighbours’ Assistant Principal position on a 200 day contract for $70,000. She will also serve as the building substitute teacher coordinator for an additional stipend of $1,500. Alyson Keefer was approved as a new fifth grade teacher for

the salary of $36,750, and Zoe Steenbergh was approved as a new sixth grade teacher with a starting salary of $35,100. Melissa Lang will serve as the Begindergarten teacher from June 11 through July 20, with the exception of the week of July 2 when the school is closed, for a stipend of $4,500. A new position of Transportation Mechanic/Technician position was created, and the board approved the recommendation to hire Adam Taylor for that position for a salary of $42,500. Superintendent Jason Callahan remarked about the high quality of personnel the school system added with its new hires and appointments. “In this day and age when teacher candidates, and educators in general, there seems to be a scarcity, and we’re worried about numbers, just getting people to apply for positions,” Callahan said. “We have an exceptional class of people here that are very diverse and highly skilled with great experiences.” Monday, the board also: — Saw a video presentation on the Fellowship of Christian Athletes’ recent trip to Belize. — Heard a presentation by O.J.

Neighbours Principal Danielle Miller on the progress of the school’s dual language immersion program. — Approved a letter of intent to move the process forward with EMCOR, moving closer to installing solar panels at Wabash Middle School and O.J.

Bridge inspections begin May 3 By David Fenker david@nmpaper.com

Inspection of Wabash County’s 157 bridges began Thursday, May 3, according to County H i g h w a y Superintendent John Martin. Martin informed the commissioners of the inspections at their May 7 meeting. The physical inspection will take most of May, with additional paperwork and reports being completed in the summer. Indianapolis-based United Consulting is contracted to handle the inspections. “They are looking for a variety of things,” Martin said. “They’re looking for the overall conditioning of the bridge, and for anything that could cause the bridge to fail. “They physically have to touch every piece of the bridge.” All of the county’s bridges are on a biannual inspection schedule, with 11 requiring a yearly inspection as well. “We have 11 that are annual inspection because of condition,” Martin said. He noted that there are four different conditions that, if the bridge scores four or less in that category, requires an annual i n s p e c t i o n . Conditions can include issues “as minute as holes in the bridge deck,” Martin said. Martin also presented paperwork at that meeting to change the county’s contract with Primco regarding Bridge 118, carrying 75 East over Burr Creek. “This change is a

decrease from the original amount of the contract of $31,644.70,” Martin said. “That changes the contract from $323,144.28 to $291,479.58.” After approving that change, the commissioners signed off on a certificate of substantial completion for that bridge, which Martin said is substantially complete. In other news, Sheriff Bob Land provided the weekly jail update, part of an alley in Laketon was vacated, and the commissioners signed a proclamation recognizing May 7-12 as National Economic Development Week. Land did not have an official jail report, but said there were 149 total inmates under his care: 104 in Wabash County Jail, 36 in Miami County, five in Elkhart County, three in Blackford County and one in Department of Corrections. The county’s agreement with Miami County, Land said, is up for renewal. “I received the revision from [County Attorney Steve Downs] last week,” Land said. “I have submitted it over to Miami County. It does state $40 per day. I have not heard anything back from them yet.” Land also noted that the county will send two deputies to the police academy in June, and that his department recently acquired a 2018 Dodge Ram 1500. Regarding the Laketon alley, Advisory Plan Commission Director Mike Howard presented the request during a public hearing.

“[The Cooks] live at 40 S. Main St. in Laketon, and they’re requesting you vacate the 10-foot-wide alley located between lots 59 and 65,” Howard said, noting that they maintain the unimproved alley, which runs between their properties. Looking at documentation provided by Howard, Chairman Brian Haupert said that a building already protrudes into the alley. The commissioners voted 3-0 to approve the request and vacate the section of the alley running between the landowners’ two lots, then suspended the rules and approved it again on second reading. Grow Wabash County CEO Keith Gillenwater presented the National E c o n o m i c Development Week proclamation. “This is the third annual version of this event,” Gillenwater said, “which is to try to bring attention to the efforts in communities not only of economic development organizations and economic development professionals, but also with the works of communities to try and promote economic development in their communities.” Haupert read the end of the proclamation, recognizing May 7-12 as National E c o n o m i c Development Week and “remind[ing] individuals of the importance of this community celebration which supports the expansion of career opportunities and improving quality of life.”

— Approved Marla Davenport as paraprofessional for IREAD summer school May 31 through June 8 from 9-11 a.m. at her hourly rate. — Approved Chloe Selleck’s request for maternity leave beginning Aug. 13 through Oct. 19, 2018. — Approved the recommendation to hire the following summer custodians for 2018 at a rate of $8.00 per hour starting May 30 through Aug. 10, 2018: Brayden Lutz, Luke Mattern, Gage Miller and Austin Wieland. — Approved the following for Driver’s Education: Michael Rigney as the Driver’s E d u c a t i o n

Coordinator with a stipend of $1,000; and approved Driver’s Education pay rates of $25 per hour for driving instructors and $30 per hour for classroom instruction. — Approved the following instructors for Wabash High School driver’s training program for the summer of 2018: Daren Porter (car/class), Randy LePage (car/class), Marianne Milam (car/class), Michael Rigney (car/class), and Sarah Cole (car/class). — Approved a recommendation for an out of state field trip for AP Calculus to Cedar Point on May 11, 2018.

WCS names elementary school Kathy Swan winners By Josh Sigler jsigler@thepaperofwabash.com

Wabash City Schools officials named its elementary school Kathy Swan Award winners at the Monday, May, 7 school board meeting. Teachers presented the awards to students in kindergarten through fourth grade Monday, with teachers giving a glimpse into what made each student worthy of the accolade. Swan was a Wabash City Schools teacher who was tragically lost in 2005 in a plane crash that also claimed her husband and son. “She was dedicated to her students. She loved kids,” Superintendent Jason Callahan said. “She had a heart for kids.

The board wanted to do something in Kathy’s memory. She was such a champion for kids, they wanted something that would live on. So, because of Kathy’s dedication to students, they created this Kathy Swan Award. “The Kathy Swan Award is given every year to a student in very grade level,” Callahan continued. “That award is given to students who epitomize, who live up to Kathy’s ideals. These are kids who work very hard. They are kids who have a great attitude. They do it without looking for recognition. “We love the Kathy Swan Award because it is an award given by staff. Our teachers every year come together, and there’s not an application

process. The kids don’t know they’re getting this. The teachers select based on the great attributes of your children.” Kaylyn Woodcock took home the Kindergarten Kathy Swan Award, with teacher Carol Enyeart giving the audience a glimpse into what makes Woodcock a worthy student. “Kaylyn Wodcock is one of those students who is just a joy to teach and be around,” Enyeart said. “… I appreciate so much about her. She is kind to all students. She works hard and does her best. I appreciate that no matter what kind of day she is having, she comes into the room with a smile on her face. Her upbeat personality and friendly spirit makes Kaylyn a per-

I feel blessed knowing her.” Teacher Kristi Clark had the honor of delivering the Kathy Swan Award to first-grader Aaliyah Samons, explaining that Aaliyah goes “above and beyond” the call as a student. “Aaliyah is someone who always comes in with a smile on her face,” Clark said. “She always has positive attitude towards school. She always has a helping desire to not only help me, but her friends when she sees they are struggling a little bit. I knew Kathy, and she always had that smile on her face. Aaliyah does too. Aaliyah has worked very hard this year academically. She desires to do her best. And, if she doesn’t understand something, she’ll come and ask, because she wants to better herself. When she works,

she takes her time. She goes above and beyond, especially with her details, whether it’s her handwriting or math story problems. … Aaliyah has a great heart, and I know she’s going to do great things in the future.” Michaella Cohee was the second grade honoree, with teacher Kathy Wilson delivering remarks on why Cohee was the best candidate. “Michaella is a joy to have in class,” Wilson said. “We all agree that every day she comes in with a smile and a positive attitude. She enjoys learning and working with her peers. She’s an ideal student. She’s attentive during instructions and she knows when to ask questions when she doesn’t understand something. She’s very encouraging to her peers. She puts forth her best effort every day. She gets along with her peers and

has a contagious smile. She’s grown tremendously in reading and math. We’re very very proud of her for the last two years. It’s our honor to honor you with the Kathy Swan Award.” Randy Boring emerged as the top candidate for the third grade award, with teacher Jen Lane honoring Boring with glowing remarks. “The definition of integrity is doing what is right and having good morals, even when no one is watching,” Lane said. “I can’t think of a more perfect word to describe Randy. Although he is quiet, his actions in the classroom speak very loudly. He has a kind, compassionate heart. At a recent field trip, instead of sitting with his friends, he went and sat with a classmate who was sitting all by himself. That compassion that he showed to that student is the same com-

passion he shows to everybody everyday in our classroom. Randy also strives to do his best in class. He has shown tremendous growth throughout the school year in every subject area. He pushes himself to not only meet his goals, but to exceed them as well. No matter what life throws at Randy, he chooses to rise above and come to school with a positive attitude and be a leader in the classroom.” Tammy France had the privilege to award Waylon Cressell with the fourth grade Kathy Swan honor, giving the audience a glimpse into why he is a deserving candidate. “Waylon has heart of gold,” France said. “He genuinely cares for everyone else, and puts others’ needs in front of his own. Waylon would give you anything if he thought you needed it more than he did. He always thinks of others first. We see this in class every single day. If someone doesn’t have a snack, he’s there to offer his. If someone needs a book to read, he’s there to share his. If someone is sad, he’s there to comfort them. He offers to help his classmates and teachers all the time. Waylon is a good person and makes good decisions. He’s also responsible. He comes to school and gives his best every single day. … He strives to meet the challenges his teachers give him. We have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Waylon this year. As a person and a student, he touches many lives every day. He touches our lives every single day, and doesn’t even know he does it.”

Gas prices expected to be up this summer By Josh Sigler jsigler@thepaperofwabash.com

Gasoline prices are expected be as much as 50 cents higher this summer when compared to 2017, an energy economist from Purdue University told The Paper of Wabash County. Wally Tyner, the James and Lois Ackerman Professor of Agricultural Economics at Purdue, explained that like any other market, gas prices are set by supply and demand. There are drivers on both the supply and demand sides which will combine to make the cost of fuel to remain higher than in recent summers. On the demand side, economic growth is doing well all over the world. Tyner reports that the United States, the European Union, China and Japan are all doing well economically. “With high economic growth, that means there’s more demand for crude oil and petroleum products,” Tyner said. “More demand means higher price.” In the case of this summer, there is also a set of supply-side drivers, Tyner said. OPEC and Russia have combined to agree to reduce crude oil supply on the market. And, gasoline price is primarily driven by the price of crude oil. “If you take crude oil off the market, as OPEC and Russia have done, that means there’s less supply,” Tyner said. “Less supply means higher prices.” Tyner reported that crude oil has gone up $20 per barrel. It was $50 per barrel in November, and it’s now $70 per barrel as of early May. For every $2 that crude oil goes up, gasoline prices raise a nickel. “So, since it went up $20, that means gasoline goes up 50 cents,” Tyner said. “And, a lot of that increase has been in the last two or three weeks.” One other important supply-side driver that’s often not mentioned is Venezuela. Venezuela used to be a very important exporter of crude oil to the United States. “But there economy has collapsed,” Tyner said. “It’s a disaster

state now, and their crude oil exports have plummeted.” In essence, Venezuela is unintentionally helping OPEC and Russia keep supplies down. Supplies are down far more than they would be if Venezuela was up and exporting its normal supply of crude oil. Russia is an exporter of crude oil as well, and they want to keep the price higher. Restricting the supply is the easiest way to accomplish that. “In the past, OPEC had to do it alone,” Tyner said. “But, this time they talked Russia into going in with them, since Russia is also an important exporter. Russia is not a formal member of the (OPEC) cartel, but they agreed to go along and agreed to a quota that was mutually agreed upon.” One other driver of fuel prices is what Tyner explained as the difference between summer and winter gas. Summer gas is about a nickel more expensive than winter gas, because of environmental rules. In the hot weather, there’s a greater tendency for gasoline to evaporate, causing smog and air pollution. “So, the EPA rules require that summer gas have a less tendency to evaporate,” Tyner said. “They have to take out some of the compounds in gasoline that evaporate easily in warm weather. They store those until winter comes and they put them back in. But, that’s OK because in the winter there’s not that tendency to evaporate like there is in the summer. “To do that, it costs money,” Tyner continued. “To get that reduction in evaporative emissions, it cost the oil refiners about a nickel a gallon, and of course they pass that on to you and I. “Those are the main drivers, and it means gas prices this summer are going to be 40 to 50 cents a gallon higher than they were last summer.” A check of the website Gas Buddy showed the average gasoline price of $2.94 in the City of Wabash on May 8. That was 11 cents more expensive than the state average

of $2.83 and 51 cents higher than the state’s lowest prices found of $2.43. Tyner couldn’t pinpoint a particular reason as to why gas in Wabash is typically higher than surrounding cities and areas. “I hear that from different places a lot,” Tyner said. “… It basically is how much competition there is in the supply system. And, if you don’t have a lot of competition in your local supply system, that means the market will let them charge a higher price.” The top seven gas stations in Wabash were all charging $2.94 on May 8.

Driscoll to continue golfing at St. Xavier By Josh Sigler jsigler@thepaperofwabash.com Northfield senior Anna Driscoll will continue her golf career after recently signing a letter of intent to play and continue her education at St. Xavier University “I picked St. Xavier because of the academic opportunities,” Driscoll said in a recent interview. “The coach (James Kerr), he’s super nice. (And I like) the team atmosphere.” Driscoll, who is undecided on a major at this time, served as Northfield’s team captain during the 2017 season. She shot her season-best nine-hole

score of 44 in the first meet of the season at Honeywell Golf Course. She helped the Lady Norse finish the regular season with a 13-0 dual meet record, and shot a 105 at the Three Rivers Conference meet to help Northfield take runner-up honors. Driscoll carded a 104 in the Huntington North Sectional, as Northfield narrowly missed an opportunity to qualify for the regional, finishing fourth. “I’ve known Anna for four years, and I’ve coached her for three of those years,” Northfield coach Eric Terrell said. “She was also a team manager for the boys. I’ve

watched her grow in golf with the help of her uncle (Rick Treska) and a little bit from me. She’s really grown a lot in golf and meant a lot to the team.” St. Xavier is an NAIA school on the southwest side of Chicago. The Cougars finished in seventh place out of 10 teams in the Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic C o n f e r e n c e Championships this past season. “It’s a great opportunity because it gives me more of a chance to grow, and also it’s a nice way to make friends,” Driscoll said of playing golf at the next level. “I look forward to getting better.”

April is National Volunteer Month. On April 24, the North Manchester Historical Society honored 55 volunteers at a reception at the NM Center for History. The volunteers served as docents, researchers, exhibit planners, exhibit fabricators, artists, Thomas Marshall House docents, board members, program planners, school day volunteers, administrators, and in many other capacities. NMHS is a virtually all-volunteer run organization, so it is deeply grateful for volunteer support. A highlight of the evening was honoring volunteers who have accumulated 100 hours of service. These milestone volunteers received a polo shirt with the NM Center for History logo. Those reaching the 100 hour mark this year were Joyce Mills and Mary Ann Swihart. Volunteer of the Year awards were given to Joe Vogel and Joan Fahs. According to NMHS President Mary Chrastil, Vogelhas been on the board of trustees of the Center for History since the group started to discuss buying the former O p p e n h e i m Department Store in 2000. He’s currently on the Center’s accessions, planning and job search committees. Through the years he’s helped with construction, moving, building shelving and exhibits, maintaining artifacts, working in the archives and serving as a docent when school children visit. Fahs has been one of the Center’s most faithful volunteers, contributing almost 600 hours despite having been out of town for long periods each winter for several years. Besides being a docent, she maintains NMHS’

THE PAPER

May 16, 2018

County capital development fund rate increase delayed Due to a clerical error, Wabash Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cumulative capital development fund will not be reestablished until next year. County Auditor Marcie Shepherd informed the commissioners of the delay at their May 14 meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to inform you that the CCD fund, the cumulative capital development fund, that you were trying to reestablish has been denied by the DLGF â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Department of Local Government Finance â&#x20AC;&#x201C; due to the Wabash Plain Dealer not properly advertising it as requested,â&#x20AC;? she said. Shepherd said that a Plain Dealer representative told her that the company is shorthanded, and that she was not informed of the issue until the day after the advertisement was supposed to run. â&#x20AC;&#x153;[That delay] didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

put us within our timeframe of one week apart,â&#x20AC;? she said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;so, we were denied because of that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;[The] timeframe is over for that, so we will have to try again first thing at the beginning of the year if you so desire to re-establish it.â&#x20AC;? The commissioners approved an ordinance re-establishing the cumulative capital development fund, which is used for building repairs and replacements, at their March 12 meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is restoration of the tax rate that was established on June 17, 2002, and the cumulative capital development fund is the fund we use for planned building repairs and replacement,â&#x20AC;? commissioner Barry Epply said at that meeting. By design, the tax rate for that fund decays over time. The March 12 ordinance brought the rate up to .0333 on each $100 of assessed valuation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It drops each year,â&#x20AC;?

Shepherd said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;so ... the state is kind of recommending everybody re-establish them to bring it up to where it needs to be. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to reestablish it either every year or, they recommend every three years, you re-establish it.â&#x20AC;? She added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at the bare minimum, canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go any further.â&#x20AC;? Shepherd noted that the information is due to DLGF by April 30, so the county will have to start over at the beginning of 2019 to try again next year. Additional news from the meeting included the weekly jail report from Sheriff Bob Land and other jail updates. Land reported that Wabash County Jail staffed booked inmate number 106 for the week as he left for the commissioners meeting, and that the county had an additional 36 inmates in Miami County, three in Blackford County, 10 in Elkhart County and

one in Department of Corrections safe keep. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our average last week was 101,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had 30 new bookins, seven transports, our peak population

was 106, [and] 74 of the 155 [total this week] are awaiting some sort of court disposition.â&#x20AC;? He added that Miami County will not accept any new Wabash

County inmates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are out of space,â&#x20AC;? Land said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re holding prisoners in the holding cell â&#x20AC;Ś right now. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find out after court once

again as to what we can do.â&#x20AC;? Land also presented a bill for about $2,600 for repairs to the jailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s padded cell, and a $100 bill for door repairs. 41866

Wabash students get lesson in safe choices By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaper-

Just days before their 2018 prom, stu-

ofwabash.com

dents at Wabash High School received a les-

An ongoing look at Wabash County 4-H 10-year members

Elizabeth Anguilm School: Manchester2017 Parents: Ryan & Sarah Anguilm Future Plans: Majoring in Political Science & Anthropology at Purdue University 4-H Club: Chester Champs 4-H Projects: Dairy Cattle, Make with a Mix 4-H Grows Organization: As part of 4-H, Elizabeth’s family has several boxes of show supplies that contain halters, lead ropes, brushes, soaps, etc. As the oldest of four, planning and organizing the show box, keeping track of inventory, and knowing when to replenish supplies has been Elizabeth’s responsibility. Through her 4H experience, Elizabeth has learned, “Organization and planning ahead of time makes fair week go more smoothly. Having the boxes organized makes using them more effective and taking inventory allows my family to get the items we need without going to use the item and realizing we don’t have enough or are out.” Elizabeth believes, “being organized and having good organization skill are good skills for daily life, college, and in a job. Organization has been very helpful while I have been at Purdue in making sure I complete all my assignments on time and in keeping to my schedule.”

Travis Corn School: Northfield Parents: Amanda Schuler & Ty Corn Future Plans: Attend Huntington University to study Agribusiness 4-H Club: Electric Club 4-H Projects: Electric, Sheep, Jr. Leaders 4-H Grows Respect: Through the 4-H program, Travis has grown the life skill of respect. According to Travis, he learned respect, through hard work and dedication, and showing kindness, even when he didn’t always want to or feel like it. Travis believes that when you exhibit respect, the best results will come through. Another way that 4-H has helped Travis “grow” the life skill of respect is by learning to ask others for help. Working with animal projects and learning to care for them has also taught Travis lessons in respect that carried over to relationships with people. “I learned how to treat others the way they needed to be treated by spending countless hours with my animals and learning the proper way to care for them. I think it’s important for other youth to learn to be respectful because you won’t get very far in life by being rude.” In the future, the life skill of respect will help Travis to be a better adult, who works hard to give and get respect from others.

John Schuler School: Northfield Parents: Mike & Andrea Schuler Future Plans: Study engineering at Purdue University 4-H Club: Tractor Maintenance 4-H Projects: Swine, Tractor Maintenance 4-H Grows Mentoring: In 4-H, John has grown skills to positively mentor and lead others. “I remember being a 3rd grader in Tractor Maintenance Club with really no knowledge of repairing equipment or manipulating a tractor and a trailer through an obstacle course. I looked up to highschoolers who seemed to know just about everything you could know.” Now, as a senior in highschool, John is still in Tractor Maintenance Club with numerous elementary students. John has had the responsibility and opportunity to be a positive role model in their lives. “I believe that by being a good mentor to younger 4H’ers that the importance of mentorship will stick with them until they have the same opportunity to be the role model the kids in the next generation look up to.” John believes becoming a good leader is an invaluable life skill that is an asset in any aspect of a person’s life, whether it be in their career, their hobbies, or in the home.

Mariah “Emmy” Titus School: Southwood Parents: Tishia & Andrew Prickett Future Plans: Major in Medical Administration at University of Northwestern Ohio 4-H Club: Poultry 4-H Projects: Goats, Child Development, Poultry, Rabbits 4-H Grows Leadership: Emmy believes 4-H has helped grow and develop many life skills but that her leadership abilities have developed the most. As she recalled her early years in 4-H, she remembered, always doing what others told her to do and never voicing her opinion. As her 4-H career progressed, she finds herself not only voicing her opinion but also being a dedicated leader. “Being a 4-H Camp Counselor had the biggest impact on my leadership skills. The kids at camp looked to me to show them what 4-H was about and how to learn while having fun. I’ve lead camp activities like songs, games, and classes.” Emmy is currently serving on the Wabash County Poultry Committee and is on the State Jr. Leader Council. She uses leadership skills learned in 4-H at work when solving problems and in working with coworkers. “4-H has definitely taught me leadership skills, I never would have learned.”

son of how making bad choices can have deadly consequences. Thanks to the efforts of a number of local agencies and businesses, the students viewed an Operation Safe Prom program on Thursday, May 10. A mock crash between two vehicles was staged in the parking lot of the Honeywell Pool. Prior to the performance, WHS Principal Kyle Wieland and Wabash County Coroner Suzie Lewis spoke to the students. “We have some really excited events coming up,” Wieland said. “We have prom, followed by graduation. It’s a great time to celebrate, but it also provides itself with some really tough decisions from time to time.

“One of the things as a school, we want to make sure you’re thinking about, ‘What is that safe choice for me?’ and also, ‘What is that safe choice for my friends and family?’ Sometimes, if you really are a true friend, you have to have those conversations if your friend is making a choice that is harmful to yourself or others.” He said the program isn’t just about graduation, but rather about everyday choices that could lead to some very tragic events. “We want to help steer away from those,” Wieland said. Lewis reminded students that the No.1 cause of death among teenagers is alcoholrelated accidents. “A teenager dies

every 22 seconds in the United States due to car accidents,” she said, citing 2013 statistics. “Drunk driving accidents are the number one killer of adolescents.” Every accident caused by drinking and driving could be prevented, she stressed. “It’s safe choices,” she said. “Every year about 22,000 teenagers are killed due to a motor vehicle accident, and another 4,000 others are injured.” But, she reminded the students, alcohol is not the only thing that can cause vehicular accidents among teens. Other factors, she noted, are interacting with other people, using a cell phone, (continued on page 24)

Andy Williams tribute coming to Honeywell By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com There’s no denying, Andy Williams had a major factor in the success the Osmond family has had in show business. “He was my mentor, my friend,” Jimmy Osmond, the youngest of the Osmond siblings, told The Paper of Wabash County in a recent telephone interview. “I started performing over 50 years ago, when I was 3, on his show. My brothers were already going.” Jimmy will bring the program, “Andy Williams: Moon River” to the Honeywell Center’s Ford Theater on Saturday, May 19. The Osmond Brothers were originally discovered by Walt Disney. That is where Andy Williams’ father saw them perform, and convinced his son to give them a shot.

“Being on Andy’s show for that many years was just like being on ‘America’s Got Talent’ every week for 10 or 12 years,” Jimmy joked. “It gave us such a launching pad. As a kid, I joined the group. I thought every kid did what I did because I was so young. “Now I look back and look at the people and the memories and the friends we had because we were introduced by Andy because they were his friends. It ended up giving us, really, a long career. So he continually blesses my life.” The show, developed by Jimmy, is the only show authorized by the Andy Williams estate to pay tribute to the award-winning music and life of Andy Williams. When Andy Williams passed in 2012, Jimmy took over Williams’ Branson

theatre as a promise to his friend and mentor to keep the legacy alive. Now known as The Andy Williams Performing Arts Center & Theatre, a wide array of entertainers are booked throughout each year, giving Andy’s vision of entertainment variety shows a place to call home – including the newest addition, “Andy Williams Moon River and Me”, which has expanded and is now touring the world. “I built my theater next to Andy’s, or just down the street,” Jimmy said, explaining the genesis of the show. “I ended up being his neighbor, which was really kind of a surreal thing because he was always ‘The Boss.’ Before he passed away, he asked me if I would keep it going and buy his theater. I did about five years ago. “I produced this

show because it was really a pet project of his. Basically it encompasses his favorite music to sing, and his favorite moments from his TV shows. “So I produced this show just for the theater, and when producers started hearing about it, we’ve done over 100 shows all over the world.” The tour has gone to Las Vegas, the United Kingdom, Japan, and is soon to be touring Ireland. “It’s just been so cool to see people fall in love with this music,” he said. “It’s been the music of so many people’s lives. “It’s just basically a 50-year look back at this great guy who opened the world to us.” One of the highlights of the show is a duet between Jimmy and Williams. “It’s sort of like Natalie Cole did with her dad with

singing and dancing, grooming and changing the radio station also contribute to vehicular deaths. WHS student Vali Reed set the scenario for her classmates: A group of students attended Wabash’s prom but, rather than going to postprom activities, opted instead to go to a private party

where alcohol was served. The demonstration picks up after a teen, which insisted she was capable of driving in spite of having several adult beverages, caused an accident. A person from the other car was lying atop the hood of one car, bloodied. Other victims remained in the car, 42369|20865

some stuck, others unconscious. Rescue personnel were called, resulting in Wabash Police, the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department and the Indiana State Police responding, along with ambulances and rescue trucks from the Wabash Fire Department and Parkview Wabash Hospital. The driver was led away in handcuffs, while paramedics treated those who needed medical attention. A sheet was used to cover the young man lying atop the hood until a body bag arrived to place him in. Following the demonstration, Wieland told the students they just witnessed “one student leave in an ambulance, one student leave in a cop car and one was in a body bag.” “When you think about that, this is real,” he continued. “This is what we could be dealing with this weekend with just one bad choice. This could be what we’re dealing with over graduation season with just one

choice. “You’re going to get back to the school today and you’re going to see all those people who were a part of the simulation. If this were real, we wouldn’t be. Some of these people would be going to jail. Some of these people we’d be visiting at a funeral home and being extremely emotional because of what could we have done a little bit differently? “Are you going to be the friend that steps in, even though it isn’t the popular thing, tell your friend, ‘Hey, I don’t think you should be doing that. Let’s try this other way because I care about you and I’m concerned.” The students, he said, will at times find themselves in the situation where they must be the unpopular voice. “But I hope you take the time to think about those consequences,” Wieland said. “What can I do to make sure they’re safe and my friends and family are safe? “Hopefully this got to you a little bit and will make you think

twice in the future.” Operation Safe Prom was a collective effort between Parkview Wabash Hospital, Wabash High School, Parkview EMS, Wabash City Fire, Wabash Police, Indiana State Police, the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department and the Wabash County Coroner. Hospital officials give a special thank you to Rick’s Auto providing the vehicles that were used and to the Parks Department for allowing the use the Honeywell Pool parking lot. Beside Reed, other WHS students taking part in the demonstration were Rebekah Freeman, Alec Wallisch, Gage Ballard, Isabel Hughes, Kia Jessee. It was the first Safe Prom the school has conducted in a number of years and is something that all parties hope to continue annually, according to Kerri Mattern, Manager, Patient Experience & Volunteers and Community Health Initiatives for Parkview Wabash Hospital.
