Proudly Serving Wabash County Since 1977

TAS Motorcycles invite Wabash County to meet Danica Patrick’s bike By J.D. Sparks There’s a legend in Wabash County, according to Terry Paul, owner of TAS Motorcycles. Sitting on a lift in the back of his building on South Miami Street sits a motorcycle built for automotive racing star Danica Patrick. “This is a great honor for this bike to be in our shop,” Paul said to The Paper. “It’s just a really good feeling. We’re all honored. We really are—the whole group. I’ve had a lot of friends help work on it and it’s just an awesome bike.” The motorcycle’s current owner, Wabash resident Bobby Hunt, beamed with pride. “I’ve had it in shows all over the place,” Hunt said. “From Peru, (North) Manchester, Walton, Muncie,

Anderson, just all over. “She’s been in seven different magazines and I’ve won several different shows with her. The bike has 15 coats of mother pearl paint. It lights up all up under the front fender, back fender and frame and has an ostrich-skinned seat. “It was built for Danica by her sponsors. She sat with it at shows.” Hunt said he brought it to TAS M o t o r cy l c e s because he felt he could trust Paul and his crew. “My son knows Terry and he had done some work on my grandson’s bike,” Hunt said. “I don’t leave this ‘cycle with just anyone. If I can’t trust them, it stays with me. And I like Terry. We need to keep him in town.

Hunt added, with a laugh: “It even stays with me in my living room during the winter.” Paul notes the fixes he and his crew have made to Hunt’s motorcycle. “She (referring to the motorcycle) had some engine troubles and there was some welding to be done to the front tree,” he said. “We had to change all of her fluids. “We’re getting her ready for the next season to show her. Eventually, we’re going to make some deep engine modifications.” Paul also mentioned, jokingly, how the motorcycle seems to know about its own fame. “She has a unique temperament and personality,” he said, smiling. “For a while, she didn’t want to turn

Jared Johnson arrested on two counts of arson from 2002 apartment fire by Brent Swan On May 16 the Wabash City Police Department arrested Jared Johnson, Urbana, on two counts of Class A Felony Arson in

connection with an apartment fire in 2002. According to WPD Detective James Kirk, the five-unit apartment house located at 213

E. Hill St. caught fire on Feb. 21, 2002 at 11:20 p.m. Shortly after the fire had started, Charles Hyden Jr. and Jake Buzzard, who were on their

way home from work that night, saw the fire and reported it to 911. Some of the residents of the apartment were unable to get out of the building because of the flames and smoke in the hallway area. Some tenants were forced to climb out windows to the roof before climbing down ladders and with the assistance of the Wabash City Fire Department. Two of the building’s residents, Dixie Catterton and Tom Blair, sustained injuries from the fire.

Catterton suffered from smoke inhalation while Blair was treated for burns to his feet. Both were taken to Wabash County Hospital. At the time of the fire, the building had approximately 12 residents. Shortly after the incident, Jared Johnson was named a person of interest in the case. “After the Hill Street fire we had a few tips come into our office that indicated Mr. Johnson could be a suspect in the fire,” Kirk said. “After the fire in 2010, we received

more tips about the Hill Stret fire that helped lead to an arrest,” In 2010, Johnson’s three children perished in a separate fire. “The two counts of arson in this arrest stem from the house fire on Hill Street only,” Kirk said. “No charges have been filed for the 2010 house fire. That investigation is still open and ongoing.” When asked about the amount of time that has passed since the Hill Street fire, Kirk said, “When there are injuries involved, in this

Teaching water safety to build confidence and save lives As swim season approaches, the Wabash County YMCA reminds kids and adults to practice safety when in and around the water. The Y offers a variety of swim programs where swimmers can have fun while building skills. In partnership with local schools and support from the Wabash County United Fund, the Y has launched a Life Lessons Swim Program that has served over 300 kids to date. Kids that participate in the program build confidence in the water, improve swim skills, and learn life lessons through water safety awareness. Take Faith for instance. Faith, like so many kids, had a clear fear of water, a fear that left her vulnerable to the dangers water can pose. The first day the Y hosted her class, she didn’t even bring her swimsuit. She had no intention of getting in the water; not today, not ever. Plain and simple, Faith was scared. She tip toed around the pool deck trying to stay as far away from the edge as possible. You could see it in her eyes. “If I get close to the edge, something bad is going to happen.” But after witnessing the first

class, she could see that it was fun. She heard the Y’s core value of honesty, and her instructors encouraged the kids to tell them if they were uncomfortable doing something. With this reassurance, Faith knew that she would be safe. Her fear began to fade. Faith left that day feeling comfortable enough to join the fun the following week and conquer her fear of the water. When that next class came, Faith showed up, suit in hand, but you could still see the fear in her eyes. Doubt had crept back in. Through some gentle reassurance, the Y’s instructors were able to get her to sit on the side of the pool and put her feet in. When it came Faith’s turn to get in the water, she did, but not without a tight grip to her instructor and the look of panic on her face. But then her grip began to loosen and an ease came over her face. Faith began to smile because she had just overcome a fear that so many children have. She was in the water. Faith was now ready, with the assurance of an instructor, to develop the confidence, knowledge, and

skills needed to see water not as scary, but as fun. Just like Faith, the over 300 children served by this program have grown in so many ways. They have overcome fears, built confidence, learned how to be safe around water, and developed skills that can lead to a life-long love of swimming. “In our most recent impact study, we have seen improvements in every child. The skills and experiences these kids have gained in this program will last a lifetime. This program will change the culture of aquatics in our community. This program will save a life,” said Steven Kuhn, Aquatics Director at the Wabash County YMCA. May is National Water Safety Month. Wabash County YMCA wants to encourage all to practice the following safety guidelines when in and around the water: * Only swim when and where there is a lifeguard on duty; never swim alone. * Adults should constantly and actively watch chil-

dren in and near the water. If multiple adults are in the vicinity, designate a “water watcher” so everyone knows who is on duty. * Inexperienced swimmers should wear a Coast Guardapproved life jacket when in, on or around the water. * Parents or guardians of children who are nonswimmers or beginning level swimmers should be in the water and within arm’s reach of their child. * Children and adults should not engage in breath holding activities in the water. * If someone who does not know how to swim falls in the water, “Reach, Throw, Don’t Go.” Do not jump in after them, instead lay on your belly and reach something out to them or through them something that will help them float.

Learn More Center Addresses “Community Prosperity” at Educational Summit by Shaun Tilghman On Wednesday, May 9, members of the business, educational, and governmental c o m m u n i t i e s throughout Wabash County were invited to attend an educational summit, entitled “Community Prosperity through E d u c a t i o n a l Attainment”, at Wabash Friends Church, hosted by the Learn More Center.

providing educational services and a learning community to meet the instructional needs of adult learners in Wabash County. Statistics for Wabash County reveal an increase in poverty by 30% since 2007, with the number of unemployed citizens more than doubling in the last five years. The summit featured Jessica Fraser, senior policy analyst for the Indiana Institute of Working Families, discussing her presentation, “Indiana’s Forgotten Middle-Skill Jobs: Meeting the Demands of a 21st Century Economy”. In her current position, Fraser serves as the lead on the Institute’s public policy and state legislative work. According to Fraser, Wabash County is experiencing higher poverty rates, in both the categories of all individuals and children, respectively, than many of its neighboring counties. In fact, one in five Wabash County children lived

State Smoke-Free Law Becomes Law July 1, 2012 The Wabash County Chamber of Commerce and The Wabash County Tobacco Free Coalition will present an Information and Question/Answer Session on Thursday, May 24, 2012 7:30 a.m. at 210 S.

in poverty in 2010. “Roughly speaking, it takes about 200% of the Federal Poverty Level ($18,310) to survive with basic life necessities,” said Fraser. “A full-time minimum wage job will earn you $21,653 for the year, while it is estimated that the yearly self-sufficiency wage for a family of three is $36,620. So, even with all of the work we’re doing with public programs, we’re still never going to get families to selfsufficiency in Indiana with public programs alone - there has to be another solution. “That solution is helping people find a job that pays a selfsufficient wage. They need to make more than what they’re earning in poverty and they need to make more than what the minimum wage pays, and we need to find a way to help them do that.” Fraser went on to say that one in three Wabash County residents do not earn enough to be self-sufficient. Also, 60% of people over the age of 25 in Wabash County do not have the skills required to be competitive in the new economy. “This is a major problem for your community,” Fraser continued, “because we want your community to be viewed as work-ready to potential employers. Middle-skill jobs represent the largest share of jobs in Indiana, and a substantial share of future job openings, but Indiana has been experiencing a shortage of middle-skill workers. In 2009, about 55% of all jobs were classified as middle-skill, but only 49% of Indiana work-

ers had the education and training required to fill those positions.” Middle-skill jobs include construction workers, high-tech manufacturing workers, nurses, health care technicians, truckers, biotech workers, police, firefighters, etc. Training for middle-skill jobs generally involve more education than a high school diploma, but less than a four-year degree. Pam Guthrie, executive director for Ivy Tech Community College, said she is able to put faces with statistics through her experiences. “There really are people in Wabash County who are striving to become more employable,” she added. “In Wabash County, we are lucky to have access to educational opportunities like the Learn More Center and Ivy Tech,” Guthrie continued. “A new federal regulation goes into effect this July, and it’s going to require students to have their GED before they can receive financial aid. I attended the Learn More Center graduation this spring, and there were 35 Wabash County residents that achieved this goal that’s 35 more people who are now in a better position to find a job that pays sustainable wages, or to go to college for more training and credentials.” Fraser also pointed out that nearly twothirds of the people who will be part of Indiana’s workforce in 2020 were already working adults in 2005, which is long past the traditional high school-to-college education pipeline. “Any sort of policy, or new ideas or inno-

vations, we make in K-12 education, for getting traditional age students to go to college, are not going to have any bearing whatsoever on this huge section of our workforce,” Fraser explained. “Adults have to be part of the solution. We will never have a competitive economy without adults being part of the solution - they just make up too much of our workforce. “We need everybody - economic development, business leaders, education professionals, legislators, people who do workforce development, etc. - to come to the table and create a comprehensive plan that...fills in the gaps to ensure we have a workforce that can compete with other states, and other countries, for good jobs. We need to support local programs, such as the Learn More Center, that are instrumental in helping adults increase their skills and get the training they need to be competitive. And, at the state level, we need to develop financial aid policies that help adults go back to school and that promote middle-skills training.” Fraser concluded, “I think if we can get those things done, then we can make major progress with closing our skills gap, making work-ready communities all over the state, and making Indiana, as well as Wabash County, competitive in the coming economy.” For more information regarding the Indiana Institute for Working Families, go t o www.incap.org/iiwf.h tml.

Bagworms beware

Because of an early spring and a mild winter, Bagworms will begin hatching much earlier than usual. They are already out in Cincinnati according to Clifford S. Sadof , Professor and Extension Specialist, Department of Entomology Purdue University. Normally, we don’t see them hatch until early June. So beware if you have an evergreen tree or shrub especially a juniper or arborvitae. Bagworms are caterpillars that live inside spindle-shaped bags, which they construct to protect themselves against birds and other enemies. These bags, composed of silken threads and bits of foliage, look so much like a part of the tree that they may go unnoticed until extensive damage has occurred. During July and August, bagworms may completely defoliate the tree or shrub. First, if you had bagworms last year, simply pick the bagworms off and drown them in a bucket of soapy water. This method is the most effective way to control, before eggs hatch out of the bags.

Wabash cooking classes being offered for children and adults Curt Campbell Carefully monitor your trees and shrubs to check for B a g w o r m s . Bagworms, can be controlled by spraying the foliage with insecticides after eggs have hatched and small bags are seen on the trees. Caterpillars must consume the foliage for the insecticide to kill them. Spraying when the caterpillars are young is most effective way to control. Waiting until you see defoliation may be too late. There are several insecticides available to control bagworms. They are available at local landscape and nursery businesses. Purdue Extension publication E-27-W has a list of pesticides available. You can get a copy by going on line to: h t t p : / / w w w. e x t e n sion.purdue.edu/anr/ ) or contact us at the Purdue Extension Office 260-563-0661 ext. 246. Please feel free to contact our office if have questions about bagworms or any gardening questions.

C3 Board shares opinion, Thank you for supporting welcomes public to meetings the tree of caring Dear Editor, Tea Partiers: Gray brigade? Christian, radical, right wing extremist nuts? Not relevant? No, no, and no! Contrary to what you might have heard or read, they are still active, functioning and gearing up for the primary reason of their existence. Taking back our nation! It’s been four years since our economy took a nosedive. Is it better? Perhaps a little, but certainly not good. Three years since the passing of Obamacare. Right now, Obamacare is in the hands of nine Supreme Court justices, and no one should feel comfortable or confident in that outcome. Eleven years since 9/11 and though we’ve become complacent, the threat is just as real. Illegal immigration has not been

stopped; voter fraud and other things threaten our election, Iran looms on the horizon, our military is being worn down, Agenda 21 is being surreptitiously put in place, we have no national budget and we are headed for national bankruptcy. There’s more, but you get the idea. So why is the national media focused on the “war on women” and gay marriage? Have you heard of distraction? The tea party groups, like Wabash’s C3, are trying to make sense of the senselessness, spread information about some of these threats, offer educational programs and basically do your research for you. The election this fall will determine our, but even more importantly your children’s and grandchil-

dren’s, future. We can choose to keep our constitutional republic as envisioned by the founding fathers or destroy what has worked for two hundred plus years and be absorbed into a oneworld socialist government implemented by the revolutionaries currently running our government. Your responsibility is to make an educated vote on behalf of future generations. Inform yourselves. Do your own research or take advantage of the work done by a few concerned citizens, but by all means, recognize the importance of November 6. C3 meetings are scheduled monthly on the first Monday. Devoting about ten hours in the next five months to understand the dangers that threaten your family doesn’t seem insurmountable. Your pres-

ence would be welcome and your input would be appreciated. Tim Barton, a national speaker for WallBuilders, will speak at the June 4th C3 meeting. Barton excels in his various presentations on worldview and on the truth of America’s Godly heritage. From elementary students to senior adults, he gains the rapt attention of all with his unique style. Join us for this next meeting and those to come. Working together the disasters lurking can be adverted.

Fleck voices thoughts about key subjects

Dear editor, Since we are in an election year, I decided to put down a few thoughts for people to think about. Just to be clear, I am a Christian Conservative who has been saved by the grace of God through his son Jesus Christ. I don’t apologize for that. I am going to challenge some Christians today, however, and maybe even a few liberals. First of all, I would like to address the issue of Illegal Immigration. Many liberals like to class all conservatives or Republicans as hating immigrants or call us racist. I love immigrants and I love immigration - the legal kind. Immigration is one of the things that has made our country great. It is an honor that so many from around the world want to come to America for the chance at the American dream and for the chance to live in a free society. For the record, I have two legal immigrants living in my home. My wife and I were blessed to have the opportunity to adopt a child from Kazakhstan and one from Taiwan. To say that I am racist or hate immigrants would be an insult to both of my children. Liberals or liberal Republicans who make these claims should be ashamed of themselves. It is at the least intellectually dishonest. There is nothing wrong in wanting the rule of law enforced and expecting our government to enforce the rule of law. Of all the things that our government does not have the constitutional authority to do, enforcing the rule of law is one of their basic fundamental duties. I would like to challenge all conservatives and especially Christians. The Bible has been very clear about the role of Christians in the care of the orphan and in stating that God has “formed us in our mother’s womb”. Are you “Pro-life”? You should be if you are

not. If you are “Prolife”, what are you doing about it? Are you voting for pro-life candidates? If so, good for you. Are you campaigning for your pro-life positions? If so, good for you. Let me be more clear, what are you really doing about it? I believe that if you are going to take the position of being prolife then as a Christian, you have a responsibility to do something about the consequences. What are the consequences of being pro-life? Children in orphanages, children in foster care, abandoned children, homeless children, you get the point. Again, what are you doing about it? I believe that God has called on Christians to care for orphans (James 1:27) and the church (Christians) have failed in their responsibilities. Because the church did not do what is expected by God, the government has

stepped in and done a miserable job of caring for these children. Ask anyone who has participated in the US Foster care system how well the system works. Christians, I challenge you today to think about what being pro-life means. It means that you should get to work on caring for the orphan. It means that you regularly pray that God will show you what you can do to care for the orphan. It means that you pray for and support families that are adopting or fostering. It means that you donate to organizations that are trying to get these children into forever families. Maybe it means that you need to adopt a child, or foster a child. A few years ago I heard about a church in Ohio that caught the meaning of caring for the orphan and the church actually adopted all the children out of an orphanage in

Kazakhstan. ALL of them came to America and are now growing up in Christian homes where they will learn of God’s love and his grace. I know of another couple, children were grown and out of the house, after going on a mission trip decided to adopt two children from Haiti. What a beautiful example of God’s call to care for the orphan. I know of other families that have fostered children for decades and adopted every child that became available. Wow, what an example! So, Christian, what are you doing to support your - position? I hope you have something to think about now. Brad Fleck Urbana

Three arrested after drug investigation

On May 12, at approximately 2:09 a.m., Deputy Ben Mota of the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department conducted a traffic stop on Manchester Ave. on a vehicle that was driving left of center. The driver of the vehicle, Christopher Sebree, 32, Wabash, was operating the vehicle while having a suspended drivers license. Sebree was also in possession of a controlled substance. During an inventory of the vehicle, Deputy Mota located several syringes, one

packet of suspected bath salts, and other drug related items. Deputy Mota then requested that Deputy Dustin Hurst continue the investigation. Upon further investigation, Deputy Hurst obtained a search warrant for a residence located at 706 Manchester Ave. Officers from the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department, Wabash City Police, and Wabash City Drug Task Force executed the search warrant and took two subjects, Bryan Carr, 26, Wabash, and Heather Craig, 34, Wabash,

into custody. Continuing the investigation, Deputy Hurst obtained another search warrant for the vehicle that Deputy Mota had stopped earlier that morning. During the execution of the search warrant, officers located 49 packets of suspected bath salts inside the vehicle. The estimated street value of the drugs seized is between $2,500 and $3,000. Sebree was arrested and preliminarily charged with Operating While Suspended Prior,

Possession of a C o n t r o l l e d S u b s t a n c e , Possession of a syringe, Possession of synthetic Cannabinoid, Dealing in a S y n t h e t i c Cannabinoid, and Possession of Paraphernalia. Carr and Craig were both arrested and preliminarily charged with Conspiracy to Dealing in a S y n t h e t i c Cannabinoid, Possession of a syringe and Maintaining a Common Nuisance.

Click it or Ticket to boost seat belt use

Motorists who refuse to wear their seat bets —- beware. Wabash County Sheriff ’s Deputy Ben Mota announced that Indiana’s 2012 Click it or Ticket seat belt enforcement will begin May 18. This national mobilization will take place over the Memorial Day holiday period, and is supported by thousands of law enforcement agencies and traffic safety advocates across the country. In Indiana, more than 250 law enforcement agencies will conduct special patrols – day and night, to identify and ticket unrestrained motorists. The effort will conclude on June third. According to the U.S. Department of Transpor tation’s National Highway Traffic Safety

Administration (NHTSA), in 2010 nationally, 6` percent of the 10,647 passenger vehicle occupants who were killed in motor vehicle traffic crashes overnight (6 p.m. to 5:59 a.m.) were not wearing seatbelts at the time of the fatal crash, compared to 42 percent during daytime hours. In Indiana, there were 3,322 crashes involving unres t r a i n e d drivers/occupants in 2011 and 202 fatalities involving unres t r a i n e d drivers/occupants. “Although Indiana’s current seat belt usage rate is 93.2 percent, there still remains a significant number of drivers who are at an increased risk for death or injury because they fail to buckle up on a regu-

lar basis,” Deputy Mota said. Just last year in Indiana, 1,024 people were ejected from their motor vehicles due to being unrestrained. Nationwide, younger motorists and men are particularly at risk. NHTSA data shows that among teen and young adult passenger vehicle occupants in 2010, ages 18-34 who were killed in motor vehicle traffic crashes, 62 percent were not buckled up at the time of the crash, the highest percentage of any age group. The number jumps to 66 percent when just men in this age group are included. “Although Click it or Ticket has been credited with increasing Indiana’s seatbelt usage rate from 63 percent in 1995 to an observed usage rate of

Ruth Rowe, 86 Member of Manchester Church of the Brethren Aug. 15, 1925 – May 13, 2012

Ruth H. (Bendsen) Rowe, 86, North Manchester, died May 13, at Timbercrest Healthcare Center. She was born Aug. 15, 1925 to Neils and Ingeborg Bendsen, in Cook County, Ill.

She is also survived by, nine grandchildren, one great-grandchild, and 11 nieces and nephews.

Condolences for the family of Mrs. Rowe may be sent online at www.mckeemorturay.com.

93 percent in 2011, we still have far to go” said Deputy Mota. “In 2010, 52 percent of all occupants killed in crashes were unrestrained in Indiana. Research consistently shows that wearing your seatbelt increases your chances of surviving a crash by more than 50 percent.” “Wabash County motorists should be prepared to see more law enforcement on the roads during this 15-day period,” continued Deputy Mota. “Special patrols will take place around the clock, and if law enforcement finds you on the road unbuckled at any time, you can expect to get a ticket. No excuses, no exceptions.”

tions that will be hosting activities during the summer to enhance your child’s experience. Y staff will supervise any activity out and away from the YMCA and each participant will be delivered to the activity site and brought back to the central location in a timely manner accompanied by Y Summer Central staff. The Y is partnering again with the Wabash City Schools as a site for the Summer Food Service Program. A healthy breakfast and lunch will be served to all of our participants everyday that we are in session from June fourth through July 27. Anytime that an activity is scheduled away from the YMCA, those meals will travel with us. Our Y, in cooperation with the Wabash City Schools Summer Food Service Program and Midwest Eye Consultants will also be sponsoring a weekend Backpack Program every Friday from June eighth thru July 27. Our goal is to provide children with some nutritious food over the weekend. This program will be of no cost to local children. Each child will need to pick up a backpack on Fridays between 11 12:30 or 4 - 6 at the YMCA. The backpacks need to be returned by Tuesday of the following week so they can be refilled so each child may receive another prepared backpack on Friday. The only stipulation is that we ask that each child sign his/her name as they take a backpack. The YMCA will supply the food; Midwest Eye Consultants are providing the backpacks, while the Wabash City Schools will prepare the backpacks for distribution. The Wabash County YMCA is very fortunate to have the partners in place to be able to the summer program. Our thanks go out to all of them including Ivy Tech, the Honeywell Center and its Outreach Program, C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County, Metropolitan School District of Wabash County, Wabash County Museum, Wabash City Schools, Living Well in Wabash County, Wabash Transit and the Wabash County United Fund.

Three Rivers Chapter of Wild Turkey Watercolor Workshop Federation to host women’s event with Terry Armstrong

The Three Rivers Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation will host a women in the Outdoors event on June 9 at Izaak Walton League in Huntertown. “Our program is about encouraging women to try new outdoor activities in a safe environment that makes them feel at ease,” said Brenda Valentine, NWTF spokeswoman, First Lady of Hunting and host of the NWTF’s “Turkey Call” TV show airing on Pursuit Channel, and Bass Pro Shops’ “Real Hunting” TV show. “This event is also an opportunity for

women of all walks of life - singles, moms, daughters, young and old - to spend a weekend outdoors, away from home, having fun and making new friends.” Since 1998, the NWTF’s Women in the Outdoors program has organized events designed especially for women. By providing expert instruction and hands-on education, the NWTF helps members develop outdoor skills and emphasizes the importance of wildlife management and the role of hunters in conservation. The combination

of sponsorship and local chapter support allows the NWTF to offer these programs at a low cost to participants. The cost of attending each event includes a subscription to Turkey Country, the NWTF’s full-color publication that includes stories about the Women in the Outdoors, JAKES (Juniors A c q u i r i n g Knowledge, Ethics and Sportsmanship) and Wheelin’ Sportsmen NWTF outreach programs, conservation issues, turkey calling and hunting, education programs and much more.

“The Women in the Outdoors program allows the NWTF to reach an entirely new audience, one that has the potential to benefit conservation efforts,” Valentine said. “It’s an opportunity for women to find great satisfaction and enjoyment in the outdoors.” For more information, contact Charita Niedermeyer at 260484-6041 or thehuntress98@hotmail.com, call 800THE-NWTF or visit www.womenintheoutdoors.org.

Watercolor Workshop with Terry Armstrong

Have you always wanted to create your own painting worthy of framing? The Charley Creek Arts Fest is thrilled to offer the opportunity to work with award winning artist Terry Armstrong at a watercolor class during the 2012 Charley Creek Arts Fest on Thursday, June 28th from 9:30am - 4pm at the Charley Creek Garden Education Building.

Terry is a Hoosierborn artist from the Warsaw area, and is greatly influenced by boyhood visits to his grandparents’ Indiana farm, and the natural beauty of the area. His paintings are mainly representative of the changing seasons, childhood memories and tell a story of a simple life in rural America. Terry also was the Best of Show Winner at the 2011 Charley

Creek Fine Art Show & Sale. He gladly will work with all skill levels at this workshop. The class evokes a relaxed atmosphere where Terry teaches some basics, and shares his techniques. He strives to complete most of the painting in the timeframe. Lunch will be provided by the Charley Creek Foundation and is included in the price of the workshop.

If interested, we encourage you to register as soon as possible, as the class size is limited and workshop attendance fills rather quickly. Please call 260-563-5043 for registration information or email bethd@richardeford.c om. Details and supplies needed for the workshop will be shared at that time.

Uggen to coach Norse gridiron gang by J.D. Sparks Northfield Athletic Director Tony Uggen will, for at least the 2012 season, be at the helm of the Norse football team. Uggen said he doesn’t foresee being the long-term answer to the Northfield head coaching vacancy left when Justin Schuhmacher recently moved to Clinton Central. “Our biggest concern is what is best for the kids,” Uggen said. “None of the assistant coaches are in the building except for junior-high coach Todd Eltzroth. “If we hired someone from outside of the building, that person wouldn’t be there to meet with the kids in the building and I

would have to do that, anyways. “We discussed this, all of the coaches, and we figured this was the best option.” Uggen aims to keep the offense and defense Schuhmacher implemented during his one-season tenure as the head coach and three seasons as the offensive coordinator. U n d e r S c h u h m a c h e r, Northfield posted a 65 record, its first season over .500 since 1980. “We’re going to have a few different twists, but overall, we want things to be the same and keep doing the things Schuhmacher did,” Uggen continued. “We’re going to have the same staff.

We want to establish a defense so when we do get a long-term coach, that will already be installed. “We just want everything to be a smooth transition from Schuhmacher to the next coach.” Uggen coached in the late 1990s and early 2000s and recognized his teams didn’t have much success. “I’m not going to try to micromanage the teams—the whole staff will be coaching,” Uggen said. “And we don’t want a complete overhaul in the system that’s in place and we wanted to keep our current staff. “And if things go wrong, people can blame me.”

Norse baseball goes undefeated in TRC by J.D. Sparks Northfield Head Baseball Coach Tony Uggen recognizes what a great honor a 7-0 Three Rivers Conference record is. But, he also recognizes there’s, hopefully for the Norse, more baseball to be played. “Every year, you set your goals and competing in, and winning conference, is always the first goal on that list,” Uggen said to The Paper. “We’ve competed in the TRC very successfully over the last 19 years. But, now, we’ve completed that goal and we have to move on and focus on our next goal: the tournament.” The 2012 TRC title marks Northfield’s second in three years. The team secured its title with a 4-0 victory at Winegardner Field against Whitko on May 14 and then bested North Miami May 16, 5-1, to finalize its

TRC schedule. Over the last three seasons, Northfield is 19-2 in league play, including a 7-0 record in 2010. But now, Northfield’s sights are set on the IHSAA sectional tournament, which begins at 5 p.m., May 24, against Wabash at Chris Rood Field. As of May 17, the Norse were ranked No. 2 in 2A by ihsbca.org and could be poised for a deep tournament run. Northfield blanked Wabash at Chris Rood Field in TRC action 50 on May 9 when Ryan Keaffaber outdueled Andrew Shepherd. Keaffaber has arguably been Northfield’s most valuable player. The hard-throwing lefty is 9-0 this season with a .56 ERA. He has struck out 111 batters and walked 15 in 68 and two-thirds innings pitched.

“When Ryan is on the mound, we’re a top two or three team,” Uggen said. “We have pretty good chances. “He doesn’t walk many batters and he just knows how to pitch. His approach to the game is amazing. “One game, he’ll throw 70 or more fastballs and 30 off-speed pitches. Other days, he’ll throw 60 curveballs. He’s a smart pitcher.” Keaffaber also leads Northfield in batting average at .450 and RBIs with 38. He and Andy Roser each have belted three homers. Andy Roser’s bat has also been invaluable to the Norse. “He and Keaffaber are right there at the top of the team in batting average,” Uggen said about Andy Roser. “He puts the ball in play and he just gets on base. He puts pressure on the other

teams’ defenses and has only struck out twice this season.” Andy Roser has 34 RBIs on the season to go with a pair of triples. He, his brother Adam Roser and Keaffaber each have seven doubles. Uggen feels his team wouldn’t be where it’s at without the pleasant surprises that have emerged on the Norse. “Adam Roser has been a nice surprise for us and has been swinging a hot bat,” Uggen continued. “Joseph Ross has improved hitting since last year and has emerged as a pretty good pitcher. “He’s laying off pitches he would have struck out on a year ago. “Ethan Stouffer, Collin Dawes and Hunter Wells each deserve credit as being so much improved and doing well this season, too.”

Apaches’ big fifth whacks Wildcats Mendez inks

by J.D. Sparks Andrew Shepherd starred as the Wabash baseball team secured a second-place finish in the Three Rivers C o n f e r e n c e Wednesday. Shepherd doubled in the go-ahead run in the five-run fifth inning at Chris Rood Field as the Apaches bested Whitko, 6-1. He also pinned down the Wildcats for seven innings as the Wabash starting pitcher, giving up one earned run and striking out four. “I thought Andrew played a great game today,” said Wabash skipper, Matt Stone. “He had a big double there in the fifth and just pitched exceptionally well. That’s what we need him to do, though. “He has to be good

for us. He really bared down against a good Whitko team.” Shepherd lined a double into left-centerfield, scoring Justin Holley from second and breaking a 1-1 tie and moving Landon Cole to third. Jordan Floor followed with an RBI single and Shepherd dented home plate on a throwing error, putting the Apaches up 41. Nate Price delivered the biggest blow, however, delivering a two-out, two-run single to set the score at its final, 6-1. “It was good to see our offense come around today,” Stone continued. “We left a lot runners on base the past couple of games. We’ve been in a lull and now we’ve won two straight.

Hopefully, we can get the ball rolling.” Shepherd pitched under duress throughout the game. Whitko stranded 11 base runners against the hard-throwing righty “We couldn’t get a big hit,” Erik Hisner, Whitko’s Head Coach, said to The Paper. “We haven’t had a problem with getting runners on base, we just couldn’t get them over or get them in.” Shepherd said his secret was to simply not worry about the runners and trust his team. “I just have faith in the guys behind me,” he said. “I don’t really worry about the guys on base much. “I just have to keep throwing hard, get ahead of the batter early in the count,

and trust my teammates.” The battery of senior catcher Nate Price and Shepherd also kept the Wildcats from running rampant on the base paths. Whitko came into the Wabash game with 108 stolen bases, averaging around five a game. The Wildcats managed one stolen base, but were caught stealing once and had a runner doubled off second base when he attempted to tag up on a fly out to Thomas McHaney in right field. “When you have a guy in Nate Price who has been catching for four years and a hard thrower like Shepherd, that’s a hard tandem to run on,” Stone said. “And Shepherd has

a good pickoff move, too. They did a good job holding them down. Thomas (McHaney), he played a great game out there in right field. He is back there for a reason and had six putouts.” Shepherd and Cole each went 2-for-4 with a run scored. Price was 1-for-2 with a pair of RBIs. Roger Davis and Floor each had a hit in three plate appearances. McHaney was 1-for3 with two runs scored and an RBI. Scored the first run of the game on a Davis single in the second inning. Whitko tied the game in the top of the fifth. Wabash moved to 13-10 on the season and will finish the conference campaign 5-2, securing second.

with IWU by J.D. Sparks Southwood senior Johnny Mendez will never forget Thursday and Friday, May 16 and 17. Thursday, Mendez broke the school record in the 400meter relay with Michael Bowman, Grant Keaffaber and J o h n a t h o n Friedersdorf at the Marion sectional, winning the event in eight minutes and 14.3 seconds, advancing to regionals. He also advanced to regionals in the 800meter run, taking second in 10 minutes and 16.7 seconds. Then, Friday morning, Mendez committed to continue his

running career at the collegiate level, agreeing to run track and cross country at Indiana Wesleyan University in Marion. “I really like the campus and it is close to home,” Mendez told The Paper about his choice of IWU. “It’s also close to Southwood so I can see my teammates and friends run and keep in contact with them. It’s in a city area and I really like the coaches, the faculty and the course. “It’s a Christian school, too, so I can strengthen my faith in God.” IWU’s Head Track Coach John Foss said (continued on page 23)

Apache golfers top County; Lewis Cass wins Wabash Invitational by J.D. Sparks

Jordan Blair

Wabash asserted itself as the top boys golf team in Wabash County Saturday at

the Wabash Invitational. The Apaches took third overall, however, carding a collective 341 on Honeywell Golf Course, their home course. Lewis Cass won with a 307. Warsaw’s JV team also shot a 307, but the Kings won in an extra-round playoff, 16-17. Southwood came in fourth with a 346, while Northfield (363), Manchester (370) and Caston (382) followed. “It’s exciting,” Brady McClure,

Wabash’s Head Coach, said about winning the unofficial Wabash County title. “You couldn’t ask for a better way for us to end the regular season. It was a great day weatherwise and we were at home, so we should have played well. It’s great that we did.” The Kings’ Brad Gray earned the individual medalist honors with a 74. Wabash sophomore Jordan Blair turned in a Wabash-County best 79.

“I started (Saturday) with a double bogey on my first hole,” Blair said to The Paper. “I thought it was going to be a long day, but I settled myself down and I knew I had 17 holes left. “It feels really good. Hopefully, it gives me some momentum for sectionals. I missed the cut for regionals last year by four strokes.” Blair’s teammate Jack Leland scored an 80, Andrew Adamson shot a 90 and Justin

Middleton carded a 92 to round out Wabash’s scorers. Parker Harner also competed and shot a 94. “Jordan and Jack played really well today,” McClure said. “And Andrew Adamson and Justin Middleton each shot well today, too. On a day we needed all four guys to step up, they

did a great job.” After Wabash came Southwood. Taylor Arwood paced the Knights with an 82. Levi Winget (87), John Shaw (88), Drew Roser (89) and Casey Huston (105) also each played for the Southwood squad. Trae Cole and Zac Zumbaugh both fired an 82 to lead

Northfield. Andrew Eckerly followed with an 87. Trey Eads came next with a 112 and Tanner Easterday shot a 117. Tyler Watson (86), Xzavier Whitaker (93), Austin Whitaker (95) and Connor Eichenaur (96) competed for Manchester.

FARMER’S MARKET Starting Saturday May 19th from 8am - 12:00pm the Farmer’s Market will be open at the Riverbridge Electric parking lot at the corner of Wayne St and SR 114. You can ride your bikes, take a walk or even dock your boat to check out what they have this summer. You can expect to see Baked goods, crafts, plants and flowers and locally made honey and maple syrups. The fruits and vegetables are locally grown and although they aren’t certified, they are organically grown. The market accepts WIC vouchers and Senior Citizen vouchers as well. Something new this year is the Wednesday evening hours from 5 – 7 p.m. at the Riverbridge Electric parking lot starting June 6th. As summer progresses the organic vegetables and fruits will change as well as the baked items so come every Saturday to see what is different and stock up on locally grown items. T H U R S D AY ’ S CHILD - A Christian ministry that provides FREE baby and

toddler items is located at 108 S. Mill Street at the north end of the Fellowship of Church’s building. Enter using the deck entrance. Thursday’s Child is open on Thursday except for holidays from 1 – 4 p.m. The ministry’s mission statement declares, “If you need it, and we’ve got it, you can have it.” Items available include baby through 4T clothing, diapers, wipes, shampoo, wash, onesies, sleepers, baby food and formula. There are just a few guidelines such as being the parent or legal guardian of the child, participating no more than once a month, and following rules regarding quantity of items chosen. Thursday’s Child operates on prayers and donations. A consignment shop donates most of the clothing. Churches and other supportive folks as well as some of the ministry’s clients contribute new and used clothing we well as other items. Soon the volunteers will be packing up the fall/winter clothing and bringing out spring and summer things. All will be in readiness before the end of March. Thursday’s Child provides necessary items to those in need. I’m sure if some of our readers have items they no longer need they could contact the church and donate to a great cause. PRAY FOR THE NATION - Every Tuesday, 12:15pm 12:45pm Victory Christian Fellowship (112 W. Main St, North Manchester, IN) is hosting Prayer Meetings for our Nation and the upcoming elections.

Daughters of the American Revolution met May 8th The monthly meeting of the Frances Slocum Chapter of the Daughters of the A m e r i c a n Revolution (DAR) was held on Tuesday, May 8th at the Grandstaff-Hentgen Community Room in Wabash. Mary Jenet Penrod read the President General’s Message from Merry Ann T. Wright. She wrote that those interested in genealogy have already begun digging into the records of the 1940 Census, which was just released to the public. The records reveal amazing details about the history of individual families as the country emerged from the Great Depression and faced World War

II. For the first time, the records are available online, and that access has proven to be quite popular: During the first three days of the release of the records, the U.S. National Archives saw more than 37 million hits to its website. Secretary Cheryl Lewis read the minutes of the April meeting. Eight members and one guest were present. The guest speaker for the evening was local author Coleen Rhoads Coble. She grew up in Wabash County the oldest of 4 children and graduated from Southwood High School. She is the author of more than 40 books, most of

team. She has won the Carol Award numerous times as well as romance and mystery awards. Colleen’s enthusiasm for her work is evident. She shared that when she is writing she knows the crime but never maps out her plots and writes not knowing what is going to happen. She often travels to the cities and places she writes about so that she can capture the feel of

the life there and find interesting facts that can only be found by spending time with the people in the community. Colleen graciously signed books for members. She can be contacted at colleen@colleencoble.com. The chapter will celebrate its 100th anniversary this fall. Several ideas were entertained and plans are being made

for an open house to be held in Wabash sometime in September. The next meeting will be held on Saturday, June 9th at noon at the Main View Restaurant in downtown North Manchester. This will be the last meeting until September. Regent Jean Wright asked members to bring ideas for programs to this luncheon meeting.
