By Valerie Werkmeister The clock has struck midnight and it’s time for Posey County Commissioners to make one of the toughest decisions in their tenure: whether or not they will take owner- ship of the Harmony Way Bridge. The topic has generated much controversy and discus- sion for those both for and against the idea of the county taking over the bridge. Commissioner Jerry Walden alluded to the struggle when he said, “The single biggest thing we have to overcome is this: There’s a Civil War mentality in Posey County: the north vs. the south. And that just can’t be.” Although commissioners Carl Schmitz, Jim Alsop and Jerry Walden had already agreed to take over the bridge during their August 19 meeting, they still have not taken the necessary steps to do so. While many supporters in favor of reopen- ing the bridge criticized their lack of action at the December 1, commissioners meeting, Schmitz responded with a list of questions he wanted answers to. Most of those questions centered around money. Schmitz wanted to know how much and where the money would come from to pay for the land survey, the initial bridge inspection, repairs to the bridge and annual inspections. He also wanted assurance if they reopened the bridge that the State of Il- linois would keep the road open leading to the bridge. The commissioners appointed nine mem- bers to a special committee that would study these questions and find solutions to over- come the hurdles necessary in order to re- open the bridge. Also at issue, is the Town of New Har- mony’s gas line which goes over the bridge. If the bridge is torn down, the town would have to find a way to relocate their gas line or purchase their gas from an Indiana source. The town had a study completed in 2013 by Morley and Associates to determine feasible options to remove the gas line. The council learned the most cost effective option, at around $777,000, would be to bore the line underneath the Wabash River. The town would have to secure a bond at a low inter- est rate to be paid back over a long period of time in order to afford the project. However, when the town council learned the commissioners had agreed to take over the bridge on August 19, they suspended their plans in order to see what would hap- pen next. At the December 1, commission- ers’ meeting, Schmitz questioned whether the bridge ownership could be transferred to New Harmony. Walden pointed out the com- missioners are the only representatives who can own and have a budget for the bridge. The town would also not be allowed to levy a toll, so transferring ownership to the town would be a moot point. On Friday, December 12, members of the Retrospective ......

By Cathy Powers When Joe Reynolds was a young man, growing up in Stewartsville, Indiana, he was friends with Robert Stevens. Robert’s father was Kenneth Stevens, the well-known and respected Poseyville pharmacist. Joe was impressed with Mr. Stevens, and came to believe that this would be a good and honorable profession to pursue. His career was soon to become a possibility. Through a family connection, Joe’s brother, Paul, was able to attend Butler University in Indianapolis because he was a good basketball player. Paul was soon encour- aging his brother to follow in his footsteps, even offer- ing to ‘loan’ him $20 per month to help with expenses. Joe knew he would need a little more money, so he asked his father, Arthur Reynolds, if he would let him fix up the old family truck and use it to haul things. He ended up hauling everything from watermelons to coal, and after a couple of months, he had enough money to pay for his schooling at Butler. Even though he also qualified for the basketball squad, Joe soon decided to concentrate on his studies. In 1963, he returned to Posey County and began his pharmacy career by buying the small Schaeffer’s Drug Store on Main Street. It was the town’s second drug store, with Stevens’ Drug Store still in operation at Main and Locust. In 1968, Bill Heilman, of Owens- boro, Kentucky, purchased Stevens, and both were in operation until 1971. At that time, they decided that merging into one store would be a good business deci- sion, and it began as a Rexall Drug Store, renamed H & R. This assured customers that there would always be a pharmacist on duty, giving the other a little more time off. Through the next few years, they expanded into some of the adjacent buildings nearby. To the West, there was Foster’s Maytag store, a hat shop, and a hard- ware store. On the North side, there was the old fire station, with the jail upstairs, next to the old Poseyville Times building, which was later torn down. Walls came down, and gradual renovation and expansion took place. The original structure was known as the Lockwood Building, constructed in the 1800s. Several things came and went in the upstairs, includ- ing The Shoe Attic, a lawyer’s office, and the license bureau. Reynolds had stored the original soda fountain Local pharmacy history colorful By Valerie Werkmeister An amendment to the consolidated zoning ordinance that was favorably passed by the Posey County Com- missioners as well as other municipal boards was met with some resistance in Poseyville. Mindy Bourne, Executive Director of the Area Plan Commission, presented information regarding the amendment to Ron Fallowfield and President Bruce Baker of the Poseyville Town Council during their meeting, last Wednesday, December 10. The third member, Steve Ahrens, was not in attendance. Bourne explained the current zoning states that park- ing in residential areas must have an all-weather type surface, such as chip and seal, asphalt or concrete. The amendment allows citizens to apply to the Board of Zoning Appeals to request a variance. The example was given that if a resident purchases a camper to park on their property, the parking area must have some type of all-weather surface rather than adding a gravel pad. This is how the current zoning or- dinance reads. Bourne acknowledged that many within the county may currently be out of compliance with the ordinance that is usually only enforced when a com- plaint is filed. The amendment gives residents the option to request a variance, if they wish to seek an alternative to the ordinance rules. Bourne explained that some may not appreciate gravel dust or erosion from their neighbors. Bourne stated areas zoned for manufacturing are ex- cluded from this amendment. Manufacturing areas must typically follow state criteria regarding parking areas, especially around the office building. Baker stated his displeasure for the ordinance. “Where did this come from? Because I don’t agree with it. I really have a problem with going on private property,” Baker said. Bourne explained the ordinance has been in place since Poseyville agreed along with the cities of Mount Vernon and Cynthiana to align with a consolidated zoning ordinance in 2012. Prior to that, the incorpo- rated towns had followed their own individual zoning ordinances. Baker questioned whether Poseyville ever had this type of all-weather surface stipulation for park- ing areas in its ordinances prior to joining the county’s consolidated ordinance. Bourne answered she wasn’t sure what was on the books, but stated she would re- search the matter. Attorney Jake Weiss, who represents the Town of Poseyville, reiterated the point that this amendment actually makes the current ordinance better since it al- lows a variance. Bourne added that Poseyville may ex- clude themselves from this amendment and write their Zoning becomes Poseyville issue Joe and Barb Reynolds State plan could take gamble out of bridge ownership Three-year-old Kayden Vaupel visited Mr. and Mrs. Claus at First Bank this past Friday afternoon.

They wanted something that showed they cared; actually, that a lot of people cared. They wanted some- thing that would do more for the officers oth- er than gift cards or coffee cups. They found their answer by giving them a gift like no other…a potentially life-saving gift that, while practical, is something that most officers have never had the opportunity to carry. The auxiliary chose to give all 55 officers in Posey County first responder trauma kits. The specially designed bag contains a tour- niquet, scissors, shears, gauze and an open airway device. It may not sound like much, but the tourniquet alone is the most impor- tant item. Police officers are often the first to arrive on the scene of an accident. An am- bulance may be 15 or 20 minutes away and in the cases of life or death situations, some people may not have that long to wait. A per- son can bleed out in three minutes. An officer who carries a tourniquet can save someone’s life, even their own. In today’s world, devastating massacres have taken place throughout the country at schools and colleges. Officers who are sup- plied with these trauma kits can be instru- mental in saving lives. Once the decision was made to purchase the kits, the ladies of the auxiliary knew it would take some time to accomplish their goal. They learned each kit would cost ap- proximately $100 and they would need a lit- tle more than $6,500. They planned to order extra supplies to help replenish items from the kits as they are used. No feat is too big or too small for this group of tenacious women. After all, they FOP Auxiliary gives local officers a gift that keeps on giving Members of the Posey County FOP Auxiliary raised money to purchase first respond- er trauma kits for all 55 police officers in Posey County.

that was used in the old Schaeffer Drug Store, and it was installed to provide customers with ice cream products with the old fash-ioned soda parlor look. This section is now known as Yester-year’s Refreshment Center with 19 different flavors of ice cream, malts, and shakes.
In the mid 70s, variety store items were added to the store, with hardware arriving in the early 80s. Whenever they realized a need for certain merchandise, Heilman and Reynolds saw the wisdom of fulfilling that need for the community.
The drug store is accredited with the necessary license to file paperwork to accept Medicare and Medicaid. This requires a renewal every three years. Customers are assisted in filling out the correct forms to cover their individual needs. The drug store also must meet the HEPA requirements regulated by the Federal Government, needed to work with over 300 insurance companies.
Heilman retired in 1996, but Reynolds continues to operate the drug store, and at 77 years of age, he has no plans to retire. He has been active in community affairs throughout the years, receiv-ing a Distinguished Service Award from the Poseyville Kiwanis Club. He and his wife, Barb, have been married for 31 years. His eldest son, Todd, is 54, and is a highly respected artist in the Austin, Texas, area. His son, Troy, 52, works for Hilliard Lyons in Evansville, Indiana, and his daughter, Melissa, age 50, chose a career in obstetrics and gynecology, and resides in Nashville, Tennessee. Joe and Barb enjoy boating at Lake Barkley in their leisure time. The pharmacy tech, Sheila Schapker, has proven to be a valuable asset to this business.
Far from retiring, Reynolds has created a new business con-cept, and the original and first of its kind is now operating within the pharmacy. It is named Dollar Dollar Store in a Store, and is actually 2,600 square feet of merchandise, selling for only one dollar each. There are 900 items in inventory, and this concept gives still more of the old general store atmosphere, adding to the drug store itself, the soda fountain, and the hardware items. This unique shopping experience has proven to be quite popu-lar with the Poseyville area customers, and Reynolds is planning to introduce the concept to surrounding towns and states in the coming year. It is literally a store within another store, providing business security to small independent store owners, and creating jobs. Reynolds sees this as a way to facilitate the survival of small businesses across the country.
Throughout the years, Joe Reynolds has had the vision to change with the times, and the tagline for this new business says it all: ‘A Better Way.’

RETROSPECT
Madeleine, it is usually mid-December when many people have their trees trimmed, and much of their shopping fi n-ished. It is time to turn their attention to one of the biggest stars of everyone’s holiday season. For months, maga-zines and other media have been showing mouth-watering images of all of food we ex-pect to gorge ourselves on at Christmas. Finally, it is time to bake the cookies, candy, and so many other items we dream about. Even the most dedicated dieters plan to ‘fall off the wag-on’ for a few days.
All of those sugary treats bombard us in every store, and how can anyone totally avoid this yearly feasting? There are hundreds of choices every-where and who could possi-bly resist? The Thanksgiving eating frenzy only serves to put most of us on the road to thoughtless calories.
At one time, Madeleine, most Christmas treats were homemade, and the ingredients
were hard to come by in differ-ent times of our history. Nuts were carefully gathered in the autumn and many evenings
were spent picking out the nutmeats and they were stored away. When I was a little girl, there were two huge pecan trees behind our house, and we carefully saved the nuts for holiday baking. We also had a black walnut tree, and those nuts were much harder to pick out. The outer covering turned our hands green, and the shells were hard to break.
Sugar as we know it today was not always easy to come by, especially during World War II, so honey or molasses was substituted. The inventive cooks of the past learned to make do with what they had.
The cookies and cakes that were made by them were much more appreciated. Folks did not just visit the local grocery and fi ll their carts with ready-made items.
Long ago Christmases were very simple, and every pre-cious morsel was savored and looked forward to, much more than what we easily have in this century. Most of the time, our holiday eating habits are a part of family traditions. We get out tattered recipe cards, in our grandmother’s faded hand-writing, and make the same things we enjoyed as children. We still have one faded page from the December issue of Woman’s Day of 1949, show-ing a collection of cookies. We made some of those recipes many times over, from year to year.
I still love springerles, the German anise-fl avored cook-ies of my youth. I can remem-ber my grandmother using an antique carved board to make the little molded squares. There
were images of fruit and birds, and the cookies were put into a cool room to harden before baking. I have tried various versions of them through the years, but none tasted like the ones I remember.
Although many people hate fruitcake, it is one of the most recognizable sweets of Christ-mas. Traditionally, it was made many weeks before the holiday, and put away to slowly soak in brandy, rum, or bourbon. It was fi lled with candied fruits, and nuts, and is always thought of as a very heavy item. Again, modern versions rarely live up to my memories.
When my children were little, we always made hard candies, using the fl avored oils one found at the drugstore. Cinnamon was the favorite in our house, and when we stirred the oil into the hot syr-upy mixture, the fumes took our breath away. We poured it out on a buttered cookie sheet, and burned our fi ngers cutting it into small pieces. We quickly
shook the little pieces into powdered sugar, and stored it away in tins. It was a treat for several months.
Sugar cookies are every-one’s standard, and one of my favorite days leading up to Christmas is when your Aunt Heather comes to my house to bake them. As in all things, she strives to make them perfectly, and they are usually much too beautiful to eat. Last year’s box of her cookies are still in a sealed box in my dining room.
Cowboy cookies, a cross be-tween oatmeal and chocolate chip, are Grandpa and Uncle Todd’s favorite, and I always make extra. Despite vowing that I will not over-bake almost every year, I always do, and carefully sealed tins of sweets linger on my dining room table long after the new year. Every-one wants to get back on their regiment of healthy eating by then, and I am left to be tempt-ed on all of those cold January days. Who can be expected to warm up with a steaming hot
cup of coffee without a cookie, after all? I try to be sensible enough to just throw it all away, but I usually can’t bring myself to do so. I give some away, of course, but there is al-ways enough left to account for about fi ve extra pounds around my middle.
It would be a bleak Christ-mas without candy and cook-ies, so let us all eat without guilt for a few days, and vow to walk a few extra miles next Spring.

December 21 is National Homeless Persons’ Memorial Day. Since 1990, on or near the fi rst day of winter and the lon-gest night of the year, the National Coali-tion for the Homeless brings attention to and seeks compassion for the homeless who have died because they didn’t have a warm, safe place to sleep. Even as the recovery works its way through the entire economy, no one is immune to potentially being homeless. People in our commu-nity—colleagues and family members, military veterans, and our friends—might be too proud to ask for help. Too often, homelessness ends in tragedy.
Social Security provides services to the
homeless and you can fi nd these services at www.socialsecurity.gov/homelessness. Those who are homeless can apply for benefi ts and, if they are eligible, their ben-efi ts can be deposited directly into a per-sonal banking account, a Direct Express debit bank card, or another electronic ac-count. They can also have benefi ts mailed to a third party, or if necessary, a represen-tative payee can receive their funds.
Social Security also collaborates with other agencies to help the homeless. At www.socialsecurity.gov/homelessness/collaborations.htm, you can read more about the Health Care for the Homeless program that provides grants to a network
of local public and non-profi t private orga-nizations. Social Security also participates in the Federal Interagency Reentry Coun-cil, as well as the Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness (PATH) program. PATH helps people with serious mental health issues or people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
Every day, and especially on December 21, remember those living without a place to call home. Homelessness is a compli-cated and emotional issue, but we can help our brothers and sisters—friends and family—access the safety net that Social Security provides. Visit www.socialsecu-rity.gov/homelessness to learn more.

Sermon of the Week: Seven Things Opened
“How bad do you want to be good?” he asked.
Confused, I asked, “What do you mean? Being bad to be good doesn’t make sense.”
“This has to do with moti-vation,” came the reply. “Do you really want to be ‘out-standing’ or be just like so many others who do things half-heartedly or to just get by in life?”
David was determined to be the man God wanted him to be. He was not content to go about his daily activities without making sure that he was a ‘man after God’s own
heart.’ So he asked God to ‘Test my motives and my heart.’
That must have taken a great amount of real courage - especially after he demand-ed, ‘Declare me innocent, O Lord!’ Imagine his boldness: ‘I have acted with integrity...I have trusted without wa-vering...put me on trial and cross-examine me.’
Rarely do we hear of God’s judgment anymore. It is no longer a popular topic. Per-haps we have become so ac-customed to God’s blessings that we have forgotten that
there will be a day when we will stand before our Savior and give an account to Him of every deed - good or bad - that we have ever done. Let us never forget that.
While this took courage for David to ask God to examine him, he had no fear or appre-hension. Why? Because he was ‘aware of God’s unfail-ing love’ that far exceeds His judgment and certain punish-ment.
What a great example for each of us.

December is upon us, the month of Christ-mas, offi ce parties, school programs, gifts, and family gatherings. Unlike the days of my grandparents when several generations all lived under one roof, today’s families are scattered, often living hundreds of miles apart. This fact plus the alarming divorce rate, children being born out of wedlock
and the demanding work schedules of par-ents and older children has moved many a Christmas celebration from around the fam-ily tree Christmas morning to families hav-ing numerous get togethers throughout the month exchanging presents and enjoying meals.
Gifts everyone loves them, many people appreciate them. As I grow older my wish list for Christmas grows less demanding.
I look much more forward to giving than receiving, but I still enjoy unwrapping that present.
Just as we open presents at Christmas time, there are seven things God wishes for us to open, pretty much on a daily basis.
Deuteronomy 15:7-8, 11 tells us “open thine hand wide unto” the poor. God wants His people to have a generous heart, which gives cheerfully (2 Corinthians 9:7). A so-bering thought is also here, “For the poor shall never cease out of the land.” Christmas is a time for giving, but as Christians we should always be benevolent.
2 Kings 6 tells the story of the king of Syr-ia sending an army to fetch the prophet Eli-sha. When Elisha saw the approaching army, he could also see the army of God there to defend him. An army of angels ready to do battle for the man of God. Elisha’s servant could not see the army of God and was afraid, Elisha prayed for his servant’s eyes to open; instantly, he could see what was hidden before. We need to open our eyes for vision. There is an additional lesson here, we need prayer for spiritual vision.
Our ears also need to be opened to God, to hear his call and understand how He wants us to serve Him (Psalm 40:6).
Moving on to number four, our lips need to be open to testify to the world the great things God has done, “O Lord, open thou
my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise” (Psalm 51:15).
Daniel chapter six tells us to open our windows for prayer. King Darius had made a decree that no one should ask any peti-tion of anyone except for him thirty days. Daniel was found breaking this law when he open his windows and prayed. Upon be-ing seen he was reported to the authorities, arrested, thrown into the den of lions, only to be found safe and sound the next morn-ing. Daniel opened the windows of prayer and followers of God have been receiving the benefi ts of it for centuries. When God’s people pray great things will happen.
Lydia shows us another item to open; our hearts. Close attention to Acts 16:14 will show that God actually opened Lydia’s heart, but before He did so, she worshiped God. James tells us this is the natural order of things, “Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. . .” As Lydia, stepped closer to God, He came close to her and opened her heart. Do you pray before you go to church or read your Bible? When you walk into the church house are you expect-ing to be blessed?
The last thing on our list of seven is our doors. Doors for God’s service; pray and look for open doors to do God’s service. God will give you an opportunity, if you only open the door (2 Corinthians 2:12).
In response to the grow-ing number of people who cannot drive after dark, Trin-ity United Church of Christ, 505 Mulberry Street, Mount Vernon, is offering a tradi-tional Christmas Eve service with candlelight and Holy Communion at 2:30 p.m. on Christmas Eve. As in the past, there will also be a 10 p.m. service on December 24.

The University of South-ern Indiana will present ‘A Conversation with Ben Bernanke,’ former chairman of the Federal Reserve, at 6 p.m. Monday, March 23, 2015, at the Physical Ac-tivities Center (PAC). Dr. Ben S. Bernanke will be the second speaker in the Uni-versity’s Romain College of Business Innovative Speak-er Series. The inaugural speaker was T. Boone Pick-ens, legendary entrepreneur and philanthropist, who spoke in spring 2013. The event is free and open to the public, and is part of a year of events planned for USI’s 50th anniversary in 2015.
As chairman of the Fed-eral Reserve System under two presidents—George W. Bush and Barack Obama—Bernanke was front and center during a tumultuous period of economic history. As chairman, he faced some of the most critical econom-ic and fi nancial challenges since the Great Depression, helping to lead the govern-ment’s response to the 2008-2009 fi nancial crisis and subsequent recession.
Bernanke is a Distin-guished Fellow in Resi-dence at the Hutchins Cen-ter on Fiscal and Monetary Policy at the Brookings In-stitute. From February 2006 through January 2014, he was chairman of the board of governors of the Federal Reserve System. He also
served as chairman of the Federal Open Market Com-mittee, the system’s princi-pal monetary policymaking body.
Before his appointment as chairman, Bernanke was chairman of the President’s Council of Economic Advis-ers, from June 2005 to Janu-ary 2006, at which time he had already served the Fed-eral Reserve System in sev-eral roles. He was a member of the board of governors of the Federal Reserve System from 2002 to 2005.
From 1994 to 1996, Ber-nanke was the Class of 1926 Professor of Economics and Public Affairs at Princ-eton University. He was the Howard Harrison and Ga-brielle Snyder Beck Profes-sor of Economics and Pub-lic Affairs and chair of the Economics Department at the university from 1996 to 2002. He had been a profes-sor of economics and public affairs at Princeton since 1985.
Before arriving at Princ-eton, Bernanke was an as-sociate professor of eco-nomics (1983-85) and an assistant professor of eco-nomics (1979-83) at the Graduate School of Busi-ness at Stanford University. His teaching career also in-cluded serving as a visiting professor of economics at New York University (1993) and at the Massachusetts In-stitute of Technology (1989-
90).Bernanke has published
numerous articles on a wide variety of economic issues, including monetary policy and macroeconomics, and is the author of several scholar-ly books and two textbooks. He has held a Guggenheim Fellowship and a Sloan Fel-lowship, and is a Fellow of the Econometric Society and of the American Acad-emy of Arts and Sciences. He served as the director of the Monetary Economics Program of the National Bu-reau of Economic Research (NBER) and as a member of the NBER’s Business Cycle Dating Committee. In July 2001, he was ap-pointed editor of the Ameri-can Economic Review. His work with civic and pro-fessional groups includes having served two terms as a member of the Montgom-ery Township (New Jersey) Board of Education.
Bernanke was born in December 1953 in Augusta, Georgia, and grew up in Dil-lon, South Carolina. He re-ceived a bachelor’s degree in economics in 1975 from Harvard University (summa cum laude) and a doctorate in economics in 1979 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
‘A Conversation with Ben Bernanke’ is sponsored by the USI Romain College of Business and the USI Foun-dation.

Indiana-based TPG Mount Vernon Marine, LLC has pur-chased Chicago Dry Dock, a Chicago area shipyard founded in 1979. Chicago Dry Dock operates on the Calumet River and is the only facility of its kind to offer un-encumbered access to both the Great Lakes (via Lake Michigan) and the Inland River System (via the Calu-met/Des Plaines/Illinois Riv-ers). Founded as Kern Barge Cleaning and Repair, CDD purchased its fi rst dry dock in 1995 and was renamed and incorporated as Chicago Dry Dock in 1996. Operating from seven secured acres less than three river miles from Lake
Michigan, it has 1,200 feet of sheeted wall and two fl oating dry docks that can accom-modate repairs to vessels 262 feet long, 54 feet wide and up to 1,500 tons, including tug boats, tow boats, commercial tour and passenger vessels, pleasure boats and barges of all types. The facility also pro-vides comprehensive barge and boat cleaning and topside repairs for vessels in Chicago and Northwest Indiana.
TPG Mount Vernon Marine (owned by TPG Marine En-terprises, LLC) operates sev-eral growing harbor services on the lower Ohio River along with dry dock repair services. “We’ve worked successfully
with a number of Illinois waterways and Great Lakes groups in the past,” said TPG President, Don W. Miller, Jr. “We have every confi dence we can build an expanded maritime repair business on the solid reputations of Chi-cago Dry Dock and TPG.”
TPG Chicago Dry Dock will retain its current manage-ment and staff, whose exper-tise will enable new growth from inland river and Great Lakes’ commercial custom-
ers. “TPG’s management team has expressed a real ap-preciation for the good work we’ve done over the years,” stated founder Haven Kern. “Their understanding of the industry and respect for our operation and staff has made for an immediate professional bond. We’re looking forward to growing with them.”

Bryan A. Ruder, Financial Advisor, Edward Jones Seek to Balance ‘Risk Tol-erance’ and ‘Required Risk’
Like everyone else, you have fi nancial goals. To help achieve these goals, you may need to invest — and when you invest, you’ll need to take on some risk. But the more you understand this risk, and the better you are at managing it, the greater your potential for staying invested for the long term.
To begin with, then, take a look at these terms:
• Risk tolerance — Your risk tolerance is essentially your comfort level with tak-ing risk. For example, if you have a high tolerance for risk, you may be comfort-able investing aggressively. Conversely, if you tend to be risk-averse, you might lean more toward more conserva-tive investment vehicles that offer greater protection of principal.
• Required risk — While the term ‘required risk’ may sound odd, it is actually an integral component of your
ability to invest successfully. Basically, your required risk is the level of risk necessary to help you achieve your in-vestment goals. The higher the return necessary to reach those goals, the more poten-tial risk you’ll need to assume.
As you invest, you’ll need to balance these two aspects of risk. For example, what might happen if you have a low risk tolerance, leading you toward ‘safer,’ low-growth invest-ments, but your goal is to re-tire early? For most people, this goal requires them to in-vest in vehicles that offer sig-nifi cant growth potential, such as stocks. And, as you know, investing in stocks entails risk — specifi cally, the risk that your stocks will lose value. So in this situation, your risk tolerance — the fact that you are risk-averse — is going to collide with your required risk level, the amount of risk you
are going to need to take (by investing in stocks) to achieve your goal of early retirement.
When such a collision oc-curs, you have two choices. First, you could ‘stretch’ your risk tolerance and accept the need to take on riskier invest-ments in exchange for the growth potential you will re-quire. Your other choice is to stay within your risk tolerance and adjust your ultimate goal — which, in this example, may mean accepting a later retirement date.
Obviously, this is a per-sonal decision. However, you may have more fl ex-ibility than you might have imagined. For instance, you might feel that you should be risk-averse because you have seen so many fl uctuations in the fi nancial markets. But if you have many decades to go until you retire, you actu-ally do have time to recover
from short-term losses, which means you may be able to reasonably handle more vola-tility. On the other hand, once you’re retired, you won’t have as many years to bounce back from market downturns, so you’ll have less ‘risk ca-pacity’ than you did when you were younger.
In any case, by balancing your risk tolerance and your required risk level — and by understanding your risk ca-pacity — you can be better prepared to take the emotion out of investing. When inves-tors let their emotions get the better of them, they can make mistakes such as chasing ‘hot’ stocks or selling quality investments due to temporary price drops. By having a clear sense of what risk really en-tails, however, you may be able to avoid costly detours — and stick with your long-term investment strategy.

Emerald ash borer (EAB), an inva-sive insect that kills ash trees has been detected for the fi rst time in Jennings, Pike, Scott, Spencer, Sullivan and War-rick counties.
Purple panel traps used to detect the pest captured EAB adults in Pike, Spencer, Sullivan and Warrick coun-ties.
A visual survey of woodpecker-attacked ash trees found EAB in Jen-nings and Scott counties. Both counties were already quarantined for EAB.
Of Indiana’s 92 counties, 79 have now detected EAB.
Moving fi rewood spreads forest pests. The Indiana EAB quarantine reg-ulates the movement of certain materi-als such as whole ash trees, ash limbs, untreated ash lumber with the bark at-tached, and cut fi rewood of any hard-wood species with the bark attached.
With EAB detections in these new counties, the effectiveness of the quar-antine is being evaluated. A decision will be announced in the new year as
to whether the county-level quarantine will continue.
Visitors to DNR properties may only bring in fi rewood if it is certifi ed by the USDA or DNR Division of Entomolo-gy & Plant Pathology, or is free of bark.
For more information on EAB, or to report an infestation, visit eabindiana.info or call Indiana DNR’s toll-free hotline at 1-866-NO EXOTIC (663-9684). To view the EAB Rule and EAB quarantine declaration visit dnr.IN.gov/entomolo/3443.htm.

Everyone seems to have an opinion about the tragic events in Ferguson, Missouri. But, as Daniel Patrick Moynihan used to say, “You’re entitled to your own opinion but you’re not entitled to your own facts.”
Soon after the shooting death of Michael Brown, this 285-pound young man was depicted as a ‘gentle giant.’ But, after a video was leaked, showing him bullying the owner of a store from which he had stolen some merchandise, Attorney General Eric Holder expressed displeasure that the video was leaked. In other words, to Holder the truth was offensive, but the lie it exposed was not.
Many people who claimed to have been eyewitnesses to the fatal shooting gave opposite accounts of what happened. Some even gave accounts that contradicted what they themselves had said earlier.
Fortunately, the grand jury did not have to rely on such state-ments, though some in the media seemed to. What the grand jury had, that the rest of us did not have until the grand jury’s decision was announced, was a set of physical facts that told a story that was independent of what anybody said.
Three different medical forensic experts - one representing Michael Brown’s parents - examined the physical facts. These facts included the autopsy results, Michael Brown’s DNA on the door of the police car and on the policeman’s gun, photographs of the bruised and swollen face of policeman Darren Wilson and the pattern of blood stains on the street where Brown was shot.
This physical evidence was hard to square with the loudly pro-claimed assertions that Brown was shot in the back, or was shot
with his hands up, while trying to surrender. But it was consistent with the policeman’s testimony.
Moreover, the physical facts were consistent with what a num-ber of black witnesses said under oath, despite expressing fears for their own safety for contradicting what those in the rampag-ing mobs were saying.
The riots, looting and setting things on fi re that some in the media are treating as reactions to the grand jury’s decision not to indict the policeman, actually began long before the grand jury had begun its investigation, much less announced any decision.
Why some people insist on believing whatever they want to believe is a question that is hard to answer. But a more important question is: What are the consequences to be expected from an orgy of anarchy that started in Ferguson, Missouri and has spread around the country?
The fi rst victims of the mob rampages in Ferguson have been people who had nothing to do with Michael Brown or the police. These include people - many of them black or members of other minorities - who have seen the businesses they worked to build destroyed, perhaps never to be revived.
But these are only the fi rst victims. If the history of other com-munities ravaged by riots in years past is any indication, there are blacks yet unborn who will be paying the price of these riots for years to come.
Sometimes it is a particular neighborhood that never recovers, and sometimes it is a whole city. Detroit is a classic example. It had the worst riot of the 1960s, with 43 deaths - 33 of them black people. Businesses left Detroit, taking with them jobs and taxes that were very much needed to keep the city viable. Middle class people - both black and white - also fl ed.
Harlem was one of many ghettos across the country that have
still not recovered from the riots of the 1960s. In later years, a niece of mine, who had grown up in the same Harlem tenement where I grew up years earlier, bitterly complained about how few stores and other businesses there were in the neighborhood.
There were plenty of stores in that same neighborhood when I was growing up, as well as a dentist, a pharmacist and an opti-cian, all less than a block away. But that was before the neighbor-hood was swept by riots.
Who benefi ts from the Ferguson riots? The biggest benefi -ciaries are politicians and racial demagogues. In Detroit, Mayor Coleman Young was one of many political demagogues who were able to ensure their own reelection, using rhetoric and poli-cies that drove away people who provided jobs and taxes, but who were likely to vote against him if they stayed. Such dema-gogues thrived as Detroit became a wasteland.

You’re entitled to your own opinion, but not to your own facts
We systematically tortured 119 human beings whom unnamed functionaries claimed were involved in 9-11-2001. At least 24 of them have been proven to be innocent of any terrorist acts. At least one was working with us as a confidential informant.
No usable intelligence was obtained via torture accord-ing to the report of the United States Senate’s Intelligence Committee. These are the facts as supported by Senator John McCain (Republican from Arizona) who championed the release of this information.
John McCain was himself tortured by the North Vietnamese after he was shot down and captured while bombing the city of Hanoi, North Vietnam. None dare call him naïve. Senator Mc-Cain knows torture is first of all immoral, and secondly ineffec-tive. For as McCain says:
“I know that victims of torture will offer intentionally mislead-ing information if they think their captors will believe it. I know they will say whatever they think their torturers want them to say if they believe it will stop their suffering.”
America’s Constitution, the charter upon which we are found-ed, in Article VIII of the Bill of Rights, prohibits cruel and un-usual punishment (even of those fairly convicted of crimes).
The people we have tortured, two to death, did not receive a grand jury indictment as required by Article V, which also pro-hibits persons from being, ‘ … compelled … to be a witness against themselves.’
Articles VI and VII are supposed to guarantee:… the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of
the state and district wherein the crime shall have been commit-ted … and (these Articles require that a person) be informed of
the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.
The 119 people were spirited away in secret, imprisoned at still undisclosed locations, without being charged, without attorneys, without the right to confront their accusers or bring out favorable testimony or have a jury trial, or any trial. Several of these 119 torture victims along with many other political prisoners have been held incognito for years.
Some may argue that these non-citizens should not be afforded any of the rights guaranteed by our Constitution. That is the same position taken by the United States Supreme Court in the Dred Scott case in 1857. This legally defensible but morally reprehen-sible ruling helped bring about the loss of 600,000 American lives in the Civil War (1861 – 1865). Nations ignore their core values at their peril.
More importantly, the America we are so justly proud of should not act like the KGB of the old Soviet Union. We should not emulate the kind of inhumane and unconscionable behavior that we so properly condemned when it was engaged in by Stalin.
As one of our true heroes John McCain said, our actions in tor-turing these fellow human beings, ‘ … stained our national hon-or.’ And he is a man well acquainted with both torture and honor.
It is time to close these gulags, including Guantanamo. It is past time to repatriate all illegally and immorally held persons. Or, if we do not wish to treat these people the way we would like to be treated in a similar situation, at an absolute minimum we should afford them the rights that our Constitution guarantees us all. We should do this not for their sake but for ours.
After all, how can we torture people for what a cabal of un-regulated and faceless bureaucrats assume are violations of our laws when such torture is itself a more
As an educator, I know fi rsthand what teachers face in the classroom. Whether that is daily lesson planning, analyzing data, fi nding new creative ways to keep children excited about learning or dipping into your own wallet to purchase classroom supplies. Improving the quality of education in Indiana continues to be a top priority for the House Republicans.
Every two years, the Indiana General Assembly devotes a tre-mendous amount of time at the Statehouse to crafting a fi scally sound, honestly balanced budget. Over half of our state’s budget is dedicated to funding K-12 education in Indiana. We realize there is a calling in Indiana to provide a top-notch education for our students, and we have pledged to dedicate much of our time and effort to making sure future Hoosiers have the best platform for learning.
Creating more fairness in the funding formula is one of our top priorities, so that each school across the state has the same ac-cess to quality of education. This does not mean we are taking dollars away from the more consolidated school corporations, but rather we are working on increasing the foundation level of educa-tion spending so there is a benefi t to all schools. The December revenue forecast will help us decide the next step with education funding while also living within our means.
The funding formula is complex, but one thing is certain, it needs to be fi xed. Based on the current formula there is a ma-jor disparity between the per student dollar amounts that schools across the state receive. We will work to lessen that gap, ensure more fairness in funding and consider ways we can raise the foun-dation level of education spending in order to benefi t Hoosier stu-
dents across the state.Addressing these concerns in education will allow us to con-
tinue to make Indiana the best place for our young Hoosiers to receive an education that will help them compete in a globally dynamic marketplace.
Another priority, which I have mentioned in a previous column, is providing our teachers that spend their own money on school supplies with a state tax credit. According to a recent study by SheerID, a leading teacher verifi cation provider, and Agile Educa-tion marketing, in 2013, teachers across the U.S. spent on average $513 out-of-pocket on classroom supplies like instructional ma-terials, professional development or books for their classrooms. Although the amount of the tax credit is still dependent on the December revenue forecast, we must support the current 55,000 teachers in Indiana that have spent their own money to improve the quality of education for their students.
As session draws near, I look forward to addressing the funding formula as well as other issues impacting Hoosier families. If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to email or call my of-fi ce. Your input is extremely valuable to me during the legislative session, and we need to work together to move our community and state forward.

United Way makes a difference in Posey CountyDan Ritter, chairman of the 2014 United Way of Posey County
campaign, announced today that the campaign drive was at 90 percent of the $690,000 goal. He said, “All the contributions we all make are used to provide services for the people of Posey County. This year the United Way of Posey County is providing funds to 21 local agencies that help Posey County people: Albion Fellows Bacon Center, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Boy Scouts of America Buffalo Trace Council, Catholic Charities, Children’s Learning Center, Christian Church Day Care Center, Commu-nity Emergency Assistance, Easter Seals Rehabilitation Cen-ter - Posey County, Easter Seals Rehabilitation Center, ECHO Community Health Care, Family Matters, Homeless Shelter of Mount Vernon, Indiana Legal Services, Lampion Center, New Harmony Ministry Association, Posey County Council on Ag-ing, Posey County Red Cross, Salvation Army, Visiting Nurse Association of Southwestern Indiana, WNIN Radio Reading Program, and Willow Tree of Posey County.” Ritter added “We are getting close to the goal due to the hard work and generos-ity of our community, but the campaign is still not finished so if you haven’t contributed yet, there is still time. When we support the United Way of Posey County, we are working together to make life better for our families and their future here in Posey County, and that is why a successful United Way campaign is so important. A service now available in Posey County is 2-1-1, the easy-to-remember number to call for access to information about resources for help in Posey County.

Letters to the Editor
I have previously written about the disastrous impact of ‘sequestration’ on our armed forces. Douglas Wissing delves into this topic in his ar-ticle ‘RIF Tide’ in the Decem-ber 2014 issue of The Ameri-can Legion Magazine, which I partially paraphrase in the next paragraph.
After 9/11 we had 570,000 soldiers in the Army, and it may decrease to around 400,000, which will be our smallest Army since before WWII. The Marines will go from 184,000 to 175,000, and the National Guard will lose 43,000 soldiers and the Reserves 20,000. The Air Force will have about 700 fewer aircraft.
Being former Navy enlisted
and a Navy officer, I am espe-cially concerned with the state of our Navy. We currently have 286 ships, including 11 carrier battle groups. Seques-tration will keep our Navy (with new construction) at 286 ships, but decrease carrier battle groups to 10. Our Naval command estimates we need 300 ships, including 12 carrier battle groups, to effectively project our military power in the world and safeguard our security. Let’s not forget 90 percent of the world’s trade passes over the oceans.
The scale back of our over-seas land bases increases the need for a strong Navy, includ-ing carrier battle groups.

Get-tough-on-crime poli-cies that mandated incarcera-tion for decades have had an unplanned-for consequence: The number of elderly inmates in federal and state prisons is in-creasing far faster than growth overall.
With those graying prison-ers come all the problems as-sociated with aging: dementia, incontinence, dental problems, chronic illness. In fact, aging accelerates in prison. Prisoners are deemed “elderly” at 55 by the National Commission on Correctional Health Care be-cause inmates tend to be about 10 years older physiologically than their chronological age.
“The fastest growing seg-ment of the prison population is people aged 50 and older, and the states are not preparing for them,” says Ralph Spinelli, a 74-year-old Ph.D. student at
the Goldman School of Public Policy, and a criminal justice reform activist.
From 1995 to 2010, the num-ber of prisoners aged 55 and older nearly quadrupled while prison populations overall grew just 42 percent, according to a Human Rights Watch report.
“Even if you don’t care about the welfare of those inmates – and you should, because many of them will be getting released and returning to society – think about all the money you’re spending.”
Failing to meet the physical, medical and nutritional needs of aging leads to more severe health conditions that require expensive treatments, Spinelli points out. But what will be even more costly for states will be the fl ood of lawsuits from both advocacy groups and the prisoners themselves.
Spinelli, who served prison time in the 1970s and the 1990s – the latter when he was in his 50s -- details his experiences in a new book, “Prison as Punish-ment,” (http://www.ralphspi-nelli.com/). The story of his incarcerations in two different prison systems casts a light on policies that can lower recidi-vism and help parolees become productive, law-abiding citi-zens.
He offers these suggestions for addressing our aging prison population:
• Create a policy to mandate that prisoners get assigned low-er bunks beginning at age 50.
It’s diffi cult to climb up and down from a top bunk as you get older, and many older men tend to be up and down more of-ten during the night as enlarged prostate glands require frequent urination, Spinelli says.
“Instituting that policy wouldn’t start a riot -- the younger guys aren’t going to get angry about it. And after it has been in place a little while, it just becomes the way things are,” Spinelli says.
Such a policy would also be a simple way to acknowledge inmates’ humanity -- something that’s lacking in prison and has a detrimental effect on rehabili-tation, he says.
• Allow inmates to buy, or families to send, special per-sonal hygiene items.
No prison that Spinelli knows of allows inmates to pur-chase adult incontinence pads at the canteen, or to have their family send them.
“It’s not that they’re trying to be cruel -- they just don’t think about those things,” Spinelli says. “It’s younger people run-ning the prisons.”
In order to allow a new item, administrators have to plan pro-tocol for everything from how to determine who’s eligible, perhaps requiring a doctor’s prescription, to how to dispose of them.
‘All of that can be done, of course, but until someone re-alizes items like Depends are needed, it won’t be done.’
• Provide basic preventive medical care.
While prison infi rmaries ad-dress illness, injury and acute health issues, they don’t gen-erally screen for problems that become more common as we age.
“In California, a woman has to have a detectable lump in her breast to get a mammogram,” Spinelli says.
While he was in prison in the 1990s, he recognized he had a
number of prostate cancer sys-tems. He requested a common lab test that serves as a screen-ing for prostate cancer and was denied.
“When I got out, I had pros-tate cancer,” he says. “I’ve had 13 surgeries and it has metasta-sized.”
Spinelli says the measures he suggests don’t have to cost a lot and in some cases, would cost nothing. Providing some preventive medical care will help avoid expensive, taxpayer-funded treatments, whether in prison or when older inmates are released. It will also prevent time- and money-draining liti-gation that states can ill afford.
“We send people to prison as punishment, not for punish-ment,” Spinelli says. “Grow-ing old in prison is punishment enough.”

Bridge supporters ask council for another opportunityBy Valerie Werkmeister
Members of the Posey County Council were updated on the current status regarding the Har-mony Way Bridge during their meeting last Tuesday, December 9. Ryan Rapp spoke on be-half of the appointed members of the Harmony Way Bridge commission that was formed by the commissioners.
Rapp explained the county isn’t alone when dealing with this project. He stated there are funding sources available if the county takes ownership of the bridge. It has been widely known that the bridge is not eligible for grant funding until a public entity assumes owner-ship.
Rapp explained that if the commissioners do not take ownership of the bridge and the re-maining members of the White County Bridge Commission resign, the status of the bridge will fall into limbo. Some say it will be owned by the both the Indiana and the Illinois States At-torney Generals. Other contend it will be owned by the Federal Highway Commission. In either case, the bridge will most likely be razed and the Town of New Harmony will have to move their gas line from the bridge quickly.
Rapp said the commission and supporters of the bridge are asking for something the bridge has never had: an opportunity at grants and oth-er funding sources. The council heard Rapp’s remarks but did not take any action. The com-missioners are expected to take a vote on the matter Tuesday morning during their last meet-ing of the year.
The following additional appropriations re-quests were approved:
• Highway Department – Steve Schenk re-quested $55,995 to be transferred from cumu-lative bridge fund to the contractual service fund; $20,000 from cumulative bridge fund to culverts and $370 from cumulative bridge fund to group insurance.
• Auditor- Kyle Haney requested a $500 ad-ditional appropriation for the deputy prosecutor salary increase. The salary ordinance was pre-viously amended to reflect the increase; how-ever the budget was never increased to reflect the change.
The council approved $144.70 reimburse-ment request from Haney for the Auditor’s of-fice that was received from a Ricoh copier and printer.
The following transfer requests were ap-proved by the council:
• $1.087 from Haney’s budget in county gen-eral office supplies to county general building insurance.
• $1,488 from Haney’s budget in county general copy paper to county general building insurance.
• $13,000 from Haney’s budget in county general postage to consulting services.
• $4,000 from Treasurer Justin White’s of-fice to purchase printers for his office as he con-tinues with his plans to make his office more modernized and efficient.
• $245 from Prosecutor Travis Clowers of-fice printing budget to office supplies.
• $400 from Clowers’ budget in maintenance contracts to law books.
• $1,850 from the Superior Court budget in county general office supplies to office furni-
ture to purchase a cross-cut shredder.• $1,135 in transfers from various line items
in Building Commissioner Ed Battieger’s bud-get to office equipment for the purchase of a field laptop. He will use the laptop to enter in-spection reports while traveling throughout the county.
• $5,295 from Sheriff Greg Oeth’s prison-ers’ meal budget to the jail vehicle fund; $1,520 from the prisoners’ meal budget to the repair of equipment budget line and $728 from office supplies to capital to purchase a new printer.
Oeth also requested permission to work with Haney on the creation of a new account entitled, ‘change account,’ per a request from the State Board of Accounts. In addition, Oeth wanted the council members to note that he provided them with a copy of the jail commis-sary fund report. The sheriff is permitted to spend money from this account as he chooses. However, Oeth has always supplied county of-ficials with information on how these funds are spent in January and July each year. The bal-ance at the beginning of the year was $51,522. The current balance is $50,247. Oeth stated when he took office; this account was almost at a zero balance.
Oeth also commented on the recent positive rating the jail received during a recent audit. He credited his dedicated staff for doing a good job in order to receive the high rating.
The Solid Waste Conservation District (SWCD) requested a number of transfers to-taling $63,000 to full-time payroll for the ad-dition of a full-time employee. The City of Mount Vernon took over the Posey County
Yard Waste Site and the SWCD assumed the responsibility of the recycling truck. In doing that, they had to hire a full-time and part-time employee to staff the truck.
The SWCD hopes to service the Cities of Mount Vernon and New Harmony with free curb side recycling services. An additional $6,800 was transferred to the repairs and main-tenance line of the budget for truck repairs. The council approved all of the requests.
Justin Faith of Automated Office Solutions (AOS) delivered a contract for services in 2015 for the council’s approval. Faith explained the $119,520 contract falls within their $125,000 budget for next year and offers one dedicated AOS staff member available onsite to the coun-ty.
The contract includes a clause that ensures their AOS staff will not be able to be solicited for hire by the county. Faith pointed out the contract rates are lower than other area compet-itors are able to offer the county. The council approved the contract.
The council approved the appointment of Rodney Cox of the Four Seasons Hotel in Mount Vernon as their representative on the new Posey County Visitors and Convention Bureau.
Councilman Tracy Ripple voiced his appre-ciation for working with other council members and bid farewell during his last meeting. Ripple was ousted from his seat during the November 4, election. Newcomer Dave Pearce will take his seat on the council during their first meet-ing slated Tuesday, January 13, at 9 a.m. in the Hovey House in Mount Vernon.

D-Patrick Downtown Ford was proud to present a check for $2500 to Gilda’s Club Evans-ville on Tuesday, December 9. Starting over a year ago, D-Patrick Ford Downtown has chosen a nonprofi t organization every month to promote and include in their monthly test drive give-away. For every test drive of a new Ford during the month of November, D-Patrick donated $10 to Gilda’s Club. Photo submitted
‘Bridge’ continued from Page A1New Harmony Town Council held a special meeting in an at-tempt to answer some of these questions and provide insight as to their plans to remove the gas line.
Walden was in attendance at the meeting and provided new information that clarified some of the financial burdens Schmitz had outlined. Walden stated he had spoken with Karl Browning from the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT). Ac-cording to Walden, Browning stated Governor Mike Pence had authorized a three-year option to Posey County.
If, after three years, the county has failed to find a feasible way to reopen the bridge, the state would raze the bridge and bear all the costs. Walden stated he expected a letter from Browning confirming that statement to be received early this week.
This would, in effect, limit the county’s financial respon-sibility if the commissioners do vote to take the bridge over during their final meeting of the year this morning, (Tuesday, December 16).
New Harmony Town Council and Harmony Way Bridge Commission member, Andrew Wilson, added that with this news of the state bearing the cost to raze the bridge structure, the newly formed commission has already found ways to reduce the county’s financial responsibilities even further.
Wilson stated, if the commissioners voted to take the title to the bridge on Tuesday, there is $9,000 available from the White County Bridge Commission that could be used to pay for the land survey, title work and deed. There are 13 acres of land in Illinois and four acres of land in Indiana that will need to be sur-
veyed. The survey cost is estimated to be $13,500. Wilson stated private funds pledged to the Harmony Way Bridge Commission members will pay for these services in order to complete the bill of sale.
The matter has come under a greater sense of urgency for ac-tion because the Michael Egbert and Dr. David Rice of the White County Bridge Commission have threatened to turn in their let-ters of resignation on December 16. If that happens, the own-ership of the bridge falls into question. Some have said it will become the property of the Attorney Generals of both Illinois and Indiana. Others, including Egbert, have countered that the Federal Highway Commission will become the owner.
Egbert also said that if that happens, the entity informed him it will want to immediately raze the bridge which will force the Town of New Harmony to act quickly in regards to moving the location of its gas line.
In light of all that has occurred regarding the bridge, New Har-mony Town Council members felt it was time to act on the gas line project. They already have a plan, outlined by Morley & Associates, to bore under the river. Their next step within that plan is to move forward with the completion of an environmental study. The council voted and approved to pay Morley & Associ-ates $36,000 to complete an environmental study to bore their gas line under the Wabash River.
New Harmony Town Council President Joe Straw stated he felt it was important for them to move forward with the study regardless of the county plans for the bridge.
“We started a plan and now we have to move on with that plan,” Straw said.
“The gas line and the bridge really are two separate things. We own the gas line. We do not own the bridge. We have to move forward for our community and for the future. I would think we want to be sure our gas line is secure and always available to us. We don’t know what’s going to happen to the bridge. We wish that keeping our gas line on the bridge would save the bridge. But, I don’t think that is likely to happen,” New Harmony Town Board member Karen Walker said.
I think this is exactly in tune with the empowerment zones that is coming down for the eight cities—of which Evansville has been chosen. This is a natural project that will fit into Governor Pence’s plan like a glove. It’s called Collaboration Networking. The idea is to establish power through networking rather than waiting on power from the top.
‘Zoning’ continued from Page A1own stipulation.
Nevertheless, Baker requested the mat-ter be tabled until more research can be conducted. He also stated he would prefer to have Ahrens present when the council decides to take a vote. Baker explained that while he believes, “zoning is abso-lutely necessary and he is a big fan of zon-ing,” he has a problem approving this type of ordinance for residential properties.
“I just want to make sure we’re go-ing in the right direction for Poseyville,” Baker said.
The price of natural gas has decreased and Julie Mayo of the utility office ad-vised the council that a new gas tracker rate will lower gas prices for Poseyville consumers by approximately 13 percent over the next three months.
Jeff Droege reported that new pagers and hand held radios that were recently ordered for the fire department will be in service next week. He also informed the council that 17 people have signed up to take a first responder class that is sched-uled to begin in January. The class will be
held two times per week for two months. Droege noted there was a large desire from the younger members of the fire de-partment to participate in this training.
The council has been considering ways to deal with a feral feline problem at lo-cal businesses. Well-meaning cat lovers have been placing food outside near Dol-lar General. It has created a problem that has concerned council members for the past couple of months. Weiss created an amendment to the town’s animal control ordinance No. 86-5-7-1. Amendment No. 2014-12-10-01 prohibits feeding at-large animals purposefully and knowingly. ‘At-Large’ is defined as the animal is off the property of its owner or not under re-straint. Those who feed the animals will be asked to stop the activity and fined $25 for the first violation. Failure to comply will result in a second violation.
The amendment will be in effect once it has been published in the newspaper.
A discussion about the continued flood-ing concerns on the south side of town near Collins Autobody Shop was held
between the council, town employee Ken Gorbett and Justin Collins. Fallowfield requested the town research possible so-lutions and costs to alleviate the flooding. Gorbett posed a few ideas that he believes may help reduce some of the flooding.
Fallowfield also noted the current con-struction project underway at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church is also add-ing to some of the problems. He stated the project should have fabric down to help eliminate some of the erosion from spreading into the street.
Gorbett agreed to look into the flood-ing problem and try to determine costs to solve the issue.
The council did approve two appoint-ments before adjourning. Ahrens was ap-pointed as the town’s representative on the county’s newly formed Visitors and Convention Bureau. Baker was also re-appointed to serve on the Posey County Economic Development Board.
The final meeting of the year will be held on Monday, December 22, at 4:30 p.m. in the town hall.
‘FOP’ continued from Page A1are cops’ wives. They solicited businesses within the county and soon learned there were many who were eager to help with the project. The kits are not something that is easy for the county or other municipalities to include in the budget. The list of donors include: Posey County Coop, Schneider Funeral Home, Mount Vernon Kiwanis, Pearison, Inc., Shephard Services, Sabic Volun-teers, American Legion Post 5, Posey County Prosecutor Travis Clowers, WSI, Liz and Jeff Miller, Business Professional Women of Mount Vernon, Deig Entertainment and Hawg-N-Sauce.
Thanks to the generosity of these businesses, they were able to meet their goal before their October deadline. Ordering the trau-ma kits was just one part of the equation. In order to be eligible to receive the kit, each offi cer must receive tactical casualty care training. The offi cers needed to know how, when and where to apply the tourniquet.
Enter Evansville Police Offi cer Lenny Reed. He conducted the necessary training free of charge for 27 offi cers last Wednesday, December 10, at the Black Township Fire Department. Offi cers from Posey County Sheriff’s Department (PCSD) Mount Vernon Police Department, New Harmony, Poseyville, Cynthiana, Indi-ana State Police, Indiana Department of Natural Resources and
There are a few more items the auxiliary learned would be greatly benefi cial to add to each kit. Chest seal bandages and combat gauze are two of the items they would like to add. If any-one would like to make a donation, contact Michelle Fortune, President of the FOP Auxiliary at [email protected] or by contacting the PCSD to leave a message.

By Brandon ColeThe Mount Vernon Wildcats have been impressive this
year, but this week they turned the corner, defeating number three-ranked Evansville Memorial, 33-32 at home.
This match had all the makings of a Hollywood movie. Each team had star wrestlers. There were close matches, questionable calls and pivotal matches throughout the con-test.
“I hope this match proves to the boys that every match counts, every kid matters, every call matters and every move matters,” said Mount Vernon head wrestling coach Tim Al-corn. “I don’t think we had the better end of the stick, as far
as the offi ciating went. But that is neither here nor there. Our kids overcame obstacles. They (Evansville Memorial) beat us the last fi ve years, were sectional champs and had everything working against us. I’m just so proud of our kids. Everyone of them deserves the credit.”
Micah Keller started off the show with a hard-fought win. His opponent was awarded a point before the match started because Keller’s shoestrings were not secured. Defending the shot, Keller was able to hip over in the opening period. This gave Keller two for the takedown and two back points.
In the second period, Memorial scored an escape point, narrowing the lead to two points. Keller scored a reversal in
the fi nal period and came away with the 6-2 win.Austin Bethel came out and just dominated his opponent at
138 pounds. Bethel began the match with a lateral drop that brought his opponent to his back. The Tiger was able to es-cape a pin initially, but Bethel caught him in a cradle shortly after. Bethel scored six-team points with a pin in 1:28.
“Payton Whoberry had a lot of obstacles to overcome,” said Alcorn. Whoberry scored a takedown with fi ve sec-onds remaining in the opening period. Memorial got the es-cape early in the second period. There was a scramble and Whoberry went down with injury. A blow to the midsection proved painful, but Whoberry would not be denied. With :55 left in the match Whoberry reclaimed the lead with a reversal and rode his opponent out for the remainder of the match. “He also got poked in the eye and lost a contact. He really stepped up for us.”
After a 12-0 start, the Wildcats had to give up a six-point forfeit. The Wildcats lost their 160-poiund match by major decision. Another forfeit left the Wildcats trailing 16-12. Ty-ler DeKemper was only down 4-0 when he got caught and surrendered a pin with :36 remaining in the match. This in-creased the Tiger’s lead to 10 points.
Mount Vernon’s 195-pound wrestler, Kyle Lang suffered a tough loss in the next contest. His opponent scored a rever-sal in the second period. Down 2-0, Lang attempted many reversals late in the third period, but kept coming up short. With regulation nearing it’s end, Lang got an escape and shot on his opponent. He gained control simultaneously as the match came to an end, but the referee did not award takedown points. “The rule states, if he is supported by his hands it’s a takedown,” said Alcorn. “His weight was supported by his hands and knees. All you have to be, is in the pits for control and that is where we were. I don’t know how he didn’t make the call.” This increased the Memorial lead 25-12.
Mount Vernon’s Tristin Choate received a forfeit in the next contest, just before the heavyweight match. The Wild-cats trailed 25-18.
Austin Stallings lost a close and controversial match, de-cided by the referee. The two large wrestlers mainly hand fought and circled each other in the fi rst period, as they tried to gain a feel for each other.
In the second period, Stallings was hit with an unnecessary roughness call. This gave Memorial a much-needed point.
By Dave PearceWhat has happened to the North Posey
boys’ basketball program? They narrowly lose their season opener on the road to the defending Class 4A Sectional Champion and then they beat Mount Vernon. So was it a fl uke?
This weekend, the Vikings sent out the signal that the fi rst two games were not a fl uke. They did it by upending the defending Pocket Athletic Conference Champion Heri-tage Hills Patriots on Friday night (49-40) and then avoided a letdown to defeat a pesky Evansville Day School team (45-37) on Sat-urday night.
North Posey Coach Heath Howington was excited after Friday night’s conference-open-ing win but perhaps was even more excited when his team came into the locker room on Saturday night.
“That’s three in a row,” Howington said in a tone that was just about as excited as Heath Howington gets. “We call that a streak…or a turkey (going to a bowling analogy).”
But regarding Friday night’s big win over the Patriots, Howington realizes the Vikings are no longer fl ying under the radar. They went from ‘the hunters to the hunted’ with the win. The Vikings will have to be even more prepared from here on out because the element of surprise is gone.
“There was a point in this game where it could have gone either way,” Howington told his team. “But you guys locked it down. You controlled the whole second half.”
The game did not start well of the Vikings. Heritage Hills got loose inside for the fi rst four points of the game before Bryce Martin found Ethan Morlock under the bucket for the Vikings’ fi rst points.
The Patriots scored again before Damon Cardin was fouled on a rebound shot attempt and made both free throws.
Trailing 8-4 Cardin found Martin inside off the press and he converted an old-fash-ioned 3-point play only for Heritage Hills to answer with another bucket inside.
But Martin showed there is more than one way to score three at a time by burying the 3-point shot the next trip down to tie the score at 10.
The Patriots answered with a three of their own but the Vikings scored the fi nal fi ve points of the quarter to lead 15-13 at the end of the period.
But for Viking fans, things appeared to be troublesome. Talented senior James Marshall had picked up two fouls and sat out the entire second period. But the Vikings played tough enough defense to keep them in the game, giving up just eight points in the quarter to trail narrowly 21-20 at the half. An Austin Graves 3-pointer off a feed from Martin and a David Bender basket off a feed from Cardin was all the offense the Vikings could muster in the period.
“To hold a player of that Caliber to four points…he’s one of the best players on our schedule,” Howington said of Heritage Hills star Gavin Schaefer. Everyone stepped in to help and we switched off onto him very well. And we got a good effort from several.”
Howington credited Morlock with coming out and setting the tone early, putting the de-fensive clamps on Schaefer.
“We held a player that I have the utmost respect for to four points,” Howington said. “We got contributions from everyone who came in. Dalton Rankin came in off the bench and gave us some good minutes and Dave Bender was very solid. And then we got into Grant (Scheller) a little bit and he responded. And Austin Graves, just did what he does.”
Howington has preached since he came to North Posey that the defensive side of the court is the most important. There was no better indication of this than over the week-end where Heritage Hills, which came in av-eraging 70 points per game was held to only 40. They gave up only 36 on Saturday night for a total of only 77 points on the weekend.
The Vikings regained their edge in the third period after Heritage Hills jumped out to a 25-20 lead the Vikings took a time out. Out of the time out, Cardin got loose inside and Martin came up with a big steal and a lay-up. Marshall then drove the lane for two

The referee claimed Stall-ings cross-face, came from to far away. “I told the referee that’s a big boy and a lot of man moving,” said Alcorn. “It’s not our fault. That kid is a target and he’s not mov-ing. Our kids are coached to be aggressive and borderline, but still legal. But this was not illegal. I have no problem with the way Austin wres-tled that match.” Both boys scored escape points, but the match tilted in Memorial’s favor due to the unnecessary roughness call.
Harley Gorman got the Wildcats back into the con-test with a decisive victory that ended by way of pin fall with :57 remaining in the match. This brought the
Wildcats within four points.Mount Vernon’s star wres-
tler, Paul Konrath pinned his opponent in the fi rst period after dominating his oppo-nent with three takedowns. The crowd became electric. Seventh-ranked Mount Ver-non was about to do the un-thinkable. They led 30-28 with two matches remaining in the dual.
Jacob Crissup lost by a major decision, but did not give up any further team points. This meant the dual meet would come down to the fi nal match.
Alcorn walked over to Noah Keller. “We just need a win, that’s it,” said Alcorn. Keller delivered on a scram-ble-style reversal in the fi nal
period. Keller had to control his opponent for the last :25 of the match. He held on for the win and the Wildcats claimed the 33-32 upset vic-tory.
“I knew I had to win the match because we were down by two and all I needed was a win to secure the team victory,” said Keller. “It’s been a long time since we beat them, so this means a lot.”
“We say things like we, team and together,” said Al-corn. “We are Mount Ver-non. This fi nally stated what we have been trying to get the kids to buy into the last couple of years. I just hope it goes to show them that one of anything, does matter.”
The Wildcats also went undefeated at the Big-8 Du-als in dominating fashion on Saturday. They topped Vincennes Lincoln (66-13), Mount Carmel (66-9), Bosse (57-18), Princeton (57-22) and Washington (78-6).
Undefeated for Mount Vernon on the day was: Gor-man , Konrath, Noah Keller, Bethel , Whoberry, Can-nato , Choate , Stallings and Ripple. Going 4-1 on the day were Crissup, Micah Keller , Dekemper and Lang.
Bethel won the Outstand-ing Wrestler Award with all fi ve pins coming in less than 30 seconds. The Wild-cats travel to Heritage Hills to grapple with the Patriots. Action gets underway at 6:30 p.m.
and suddenly, the Vikings were ahead 26-25 and the Patriots were taking a time out.
For the next minute or so, Cardin became dominant inside, scoring the next four Viking points and taking a charge on the defensive end. Marshall scored again before the Patriots got the fi nal three points of the quarter to pull to within 32-30 heading into the fi nal quarter.
The teams traded baskets and the score was tied at 36-all when Howington called another time out with 3:28 remaining in the game. In that fi nal 3:28, Austin Graves came off the bench to bury a 3-point basket and the Vi-kings were off to the races.
Morlock found Graves open for another three at the 1:52 mark and Marshall hit three of four free throws in the next minute to give the Vikings a 45-36 advantage.
Following two free throws, Heritage Hills took a time out at the 40-second mark but the Vikings made their free throws down the stretch and the Patriots simply could not catch up.
“Damon Cardin really responded tonight and got a double-double,” Howington said of the 6-3 senior. “And Bryce Martin came to play today with 17 points. These seniors are leading and everyone is following.”
So how do you defeat a team like Heritage Hills?
“We came in tying to limit his (Schaefer’s) touches. We spent a lot of time this week in practice preparing for him,” Howington said. “And they had only two offensive rebounds. I really challenged Damon at the half because I didn’t think he was playing very well. We needed more out of him and he stepped up and responded. Bryce help set the defensive and mental tone for this game. That stuff is contagious. We have a lot of younger guys and there are not three better guys for them to learn from.”
The Vikings limited their turnovers to 11, only four in the second half.
“Give credit to our varsity assistant Coach
McClure who suggested that we try to spread them out and then drive and I thought that was the difference in the second half,” Howington said. “They were a team that really puts a lot of points on the board and for us to hold them to 40, we’re pretty excited about that.”
The Vikings were led in scoring by Martin who picked up 17 points. Cardin had 10 while Marshall and Graves had nine apiece. David Bender and Ethan Morlock had two apiece.
Against Day School, Cardin fi nished with 20 points while Marshall had 13. Bender fi n-ished with fi ve while Grant Scheller had four and Graves had three.
The Vikings return to action on Friday night when they host Mater Dei. Game time is 7 p.m.
By Dave PearceSometimes when you are starting at the bot-
tom trying to build an athletic program, some tough decisions have to be made. First-year head wrestling coach Cody Moll made one of those decisions this week and it more than likely cost him and his team the match against Wood Memorial on Wednesday night as the Vikings dropped a 39-36 decision.
But while Moll is the last person who enjoys losing, a more important principle was taught in the loss. Moll held two of his wrestlers out for lackadaisical performances in practice through the week and it cost the team a win.
But Moll was unapologetic for making his point.
“In past years, from what I understand, they would have gone ahead and wrestled after they were told they were going to be held out,” Moll said. “But they have to learn that things are different now. They are in on the ground fl oor of something bigger and better than any one of them individually. They are building a winning team and a winning program.”
Moll said it was unfortunate because if those two guys had wrestled, the team would almost without a doubt have won the meet.
“It’s about the principle of the matter,” Moll
explained. “I told them I wasn’t going to let them wrestle and I don’t think they believed me. But they were willing to take that chance and it hurt their teammates and our record be-cause we gave up the loss to Wood Memorial. That really hurts.”
But despite the lesson, Moll is optimistic about the team and the future of North Posey wrestling. After going winless last season, the Vikings were in a spot to win their fourth match against three losses early in the season. And with no seniors on the squad, Moll knows this team can only improve. He believes he has a solid core of wrestlers who are planning to work together to get better. But there are cer-tain setbacks when you are building and this happens to be one of them. The mental portion of wrestling is every bit as important and the physical part. But there were other events in this match, both benefi cial and detrimental.
“We didn’t think Kamryn Capps would get pinned either,” Moll said of the match. “We have a few guys up and down the line-up that we count on to win or have a close match and he is one of those. If he goes from just winning to getting pin, that’s a nine-point swing. That would have won this match.”
But Capps wasn’t the only reason the Vi-kings dropped to 3-4 on the season instead of moving over the .500 mark at 4-3.
“If you go back through and take all our pins away and we just lose the individual matches, we easily win the dual meet,” Moll said. “I try to stress to them that if we never get pinned in a dual meet, we will win all our meets. After the match, I told them that we have a couple of studs in the room that are going to get us pins or at least wins every time out. If you guys can battle and just not get pinned, I truly believe we are going to win every dual meet.”
But Moll was quick to give credit where credit was due, as well.
“Adam Schmitt was sick with a fl u bug but
he came in and he wrestled his butt off and got us a pin,” Moll said. “I don’t celebrate too many very much but I got pretty excited about this one because I knew what he was battling and fi ghting. And that’s what I told the other kids. He showed up to wrestle and the Wood Memorial kids showed up to wrestle. It’s not like it was a surprise on either side. I told some of the others that they had a teammate who was puking after the match yet he got the pin. That’s huge. He could have stayed at home and we would have lost even worse. He sucked it up for his teammates and battled and never once complained.”
Moll said Schmitt’s performance was a great example of team wrestling.
“I want a team,” Moll said. “He came in a little late from football but he came in and wrestled his best match of the year so far. We’re excited to see what he’s going to have here in two or three weeks. He has really turned the page for us.”
Moll said he and his assistant had already fi gured they would be 4-3 following the Wood Memorial match.
“I won’t forget anytime soon when Travis smacked the mat on the last pin and they went crazy,” Moll said. “That was gut-wrenching, especially on my fi rst home match. Hopefully, we can use that for motivation down the line. And there was a pretty good crowd here, too.”
The team was in the Pocket Athletic Con-ference duals. The team fi nished the weekend 1-7 but were within 10 points or less in fi ve of the matches. Moll said he would like to have another chance toward the end of the season. But when you are building a program, you have to take the matches in the order they are scheduled.
“We just have to battle and get tougher,” Moll said. “Every match is an important match. We have to take them one match at a time. We are excited about the future.”

MOUNT VERNON
ATHLETE OF THE WEEKNOAH KELLER
Mount Vernon wrestler Noah Keller won the fi nal match in the Memorial match this week and then went un-defeated in the dual tournament on
North Posey senior Damon Cardin followed up a double-double against
Heritage Hills on Friday with a 20-point effort on Saturday against
Day School.
Ten-year-old Kayla Orpurt of Wadesville, a fi fth grader at North Elementary School, claimed third place at the NFL Indianapolis Colts Punt, Pass, and Kick Team Cham-pionships. The competition took place on Sunday, Nov. 30, 2014, prior to the Colts game against the Washington Redskins.
Overall, eight of the 40 participants in the contest hailed from the Tri-State. Only one, Orpurt, was from Posey County. All team fi nal-ists were recognized at half-time at the Colt’s game. Each child was introduced and their hometown mentioned. They then each threw a pass. All of it was shown on the JumboTron in front of 64,000 people.
The competition, cre-ated in 1961 by the National Football League, comprises of three elements; the punt, the pass, and the kick. To get to the team champion-ships, each athlete qualifi ed by winning individual age groups in both the local and then regional events. After each participant completed their passes, punts, and kicks, they gathered in front of the goalpost in the north end zone for a group picture and then waited in a conference room for the results. While waiting, the group received a pep talk from Mike Prior, a
13-year veteran of the NFL, and a Super Bowl Champion with the Green Bay Packers and former safety for the In-dianapolis Colts.
The trophies were a beau-tifully decorated one-of-a-kind Wilson football with the place received (First through fourth), their age group, and the year. Kayla plans on putting-hers in a glass dis-play box. After trophies were handed out, the kids and their
chaperone were escorted to their game seats. Every child received two tickets to the Colts game and a $20 Lucas Oil Stadium gift card. Kayla and the rest of her family which included Dad Nelson, Mom Jenni, brother Marcus, and Grandma Karol Brown, all had a wonderful time. Kayla plans on making it there again next year. Her secret weapon is her punt, which averages 76 feet.

By Brandon ColeThe tale of two teams
continued this week as the Mount Vernon Lady Wildcats basketball team lost a couple of games to some tough com-petition. They fell to Ma-ter Dei (76-48) and Gibson Southern (58-46).
Tonight’s tale was about a Mount Vernon Lady Wild-cat team that put top-ranked Mater Dei on their heels the fi rst half, only allowing them to come ahead and lead at half by one point on a buzzer beater by their all star, Tori Schickel.
From the starting tip, which Mount Vernon con-trolled, the Lady Wildcats led throughout the fi rst quar-ter and played exception-ally well. “Our press breaker worked well, we got lay-ups, ran the fl oor and the offense was clicking,” said Mount Vernon Lady Wildcats head coach Byron Sanders. “We also controlled the boards winning the rebounding bat-tle 30-22.” This is something
Mount Vernon has been striv-ing for, throughout the young season.
“For the year, we have not been able to put four good quarters together, but I attri-bute that to an inexperienced team that has to gain the men-tal toughness and fortitude necessary to sustain another team’s run, and work through a dry spell or other typical calamities that are all part of tough games against tough opponents,” said Sanders.
Sanders is very pleased with the girls, and chose to focus on the positive, and the fact that they are capable of playing with the top teams in the state, even if it is just for two quarters. “I don’t focus on the negative, but use areas of improvement as benchmarks and goals for us to work towards,” said Sand-ers. “One area of improve-ment has been rebounding over the past few games, and we came out this game and demonstrated some marked improvement.” Mount Ver-
non also shot 71 percent from the free-throw line, and 40 percent from the fi eld. Con-sidering the accomplished opponent the Lady Wildcats played, this is noteworthy.
Mount Vernon’s target for improvement is turnovers; they had 30 to Mater Dei’s 13. “And of course second half scoring was nonexis-tent,” said Sanders.
Mara Canada led the home team in scoring with 13, shooting 56 percent from the fi eld. Alexis Nall had a double-double, scoring 12 points and leading the team in rebounds with 10.
Erin Wolf and Maddie Cross contributed seven points each, and Abby Ran-dal had four assists.
“Not to break suit, we again played only two good quarters (outscoring Gibson Southern 29-28 on Thurs-day in the third and fourth quarters), but it wasn’t good enough to recover from a fi rst half defi cit of 30-17,” said Sanders. Thus, the Lady Wildcats ended up on the losing side of things, 58-46.
Gibson Southern is a solid ball club with a record of 7-3, and two highly touted players in Hannah Cosby and Maddie Raley. “We just couldn’t hold both girls down at the same time,” said Sanders. Cosby scored 11 points in the fi rst half while the Lady Wildcats held her to only three points in the sec-ond half. It was just the op-posite with Raley; she only scored fi ve in the fi rst half and then exploded in the sec-ond half with 15.
“Our girls held their com-posure and showed tenacity in the second half by cutting the lead to two points with the help of a very effective half-court trap; but it wasn’t enough to close the overall gap,” said Sanders.
Sanders saw a lot of prog-ress and growth in this game. “I saw the girls start to un-derstand the game of bas-ketball, which is much more than just mechanics,” said Sanders. “We appeared to play with a higher basketball IQ and tried to get the ball in the hands of the girls with the highest shooting percentage.
I saw role players evolve and understand the value of a well-timed pass (assist) or a screen/pick, that led to a score, being as equally im-portant as the score itself. Right now I’m still looking for someone that will take on the role of rebounder.”
Rebounding is as much a skill, as it is an art form. The rebounder has to predict the bounce as well as jockey for position, while blocking out opponents. Mount Vernon was outrebounded 30 -19 in this contest.
Turnovers were held to only 13, while Gibson South-ern had 14. The Lady Wild-cats had equal scoring from Nall (19 points) and Canada
(18 points). Nall also led the team in rebounds and assists, while Canada made fi ve, three pointers, with an accu-racy of 42 percent.
“We hope to put all of are learning to use on Mon-day night as we play Carmi at home and try to put four good quarters together,” said Sanders. “Almost every coach has complimented our girls and said, your team’s going to gel soon. I’m just glad it wasn’t tonight.”
Gibson Southern was a re-deeming game for the Lady Wildcats. “I saw the sem-blance of an ingredient that is necessary for any successful team,” said Sanders. “That ingredient is chemistry. In the
locker room after the game with Gibson Southern, our girls were acknowledging, complimenting and thanking each other for setting good screens, being team players and recognizing respective contributions.”
Sanders believes that weathering this tough row of games has not broken their spirit, but has really built some character. “Come to our locker room, come to our practice,” said Sanders. “You wouldn’t think you’re see-ing a team with a losing re-cord. Their spirit is awesome. Practices are fun. That’s a tremendous improvement. It’s rare, and not something I take lightly. They’re special.”

By Brandon ColeBoth of the Mount Vernon swimming
teams topped Evansville Central and Evans-ville North at home on Wednesday night. The boys topped Evansville North 78-68 and Evansville Central 101-38. The Lady Wildcats defeated Evansville North 119-56 and Evansville Central 119-47.
“The level of competition was pretty good,” said Loehr. “Large teams are a good sign for the Evansville area. There were a couple of events that they really pushed us,
which is good for this time of the year.”In the 50-Yard Free, Pearl Muensterman
nearly broke a six-year old record set by Michea Reinitz . Meunsterman fi nished the race in 25.39, while Reinitz did it in 24.57.
Samantha Gowdy (54.93) and Rachel Burke (59.16) led the fi eld in the 100-Yard Free. Just 0.3 seconds faster and Gowdy would have set a meet record, topping Erika McCormick’s 2010 time of 54.64.
Burke (2:06.73) and Josie Mercer (2:22.94) topped the fi eld of swimmers in
the 200-Yard Free.Freshman Ella Simms placed second in
the 500-Yard Free, with a time of 6:14.56. “I kind of messed up, because I lost my cap,” said Simms. “I still placed second, so I guess that was pretty good.” She placed fourth in the 100-Yard Breast with a time of (1:25.87). Simms also competed in the 200 Relay and 400 Relay.
“Simms swam two personal bests for us tonight,” said Loehr. “She has been pretty sick lately, so for her to swim at all was pret-ty remarkable. Her effort was remarkable.”
Gowdy placed fi rst in the 100-Yard Back in a time of 1:00.18, which is 0.62 seconds slower than the meet record of 59.56 set by Clara Baggett in 2012.
Meunsterman topped the fi eld in the 100-Yard Breast with an impressive time of 1:11.46. “Pearl did breaststroke instead of freestyle tonight and she swam very well,” said Loehr. She swam right at her best times.”
Freshman, Olivia Trent led all com-petitors in the 100-Yard Fly with a time of 1:10.86. She was also second in the 200 IM with a time of 2:45.05.
Placing fi rst in the 200 IM with a time of 2:33.46, was Taylor Culley.
The Mount Vernon divers put on quite a show. Jillian Schirtzinger (222.55) and Nat-alie Gerard (220.15) placed fi rst and second respectively. Their nearest competitor was Evansville North’s Payton Johnson with a score of 161.3. “The divers last week at the girls invite, had a bit of a wake up call,” said Loehr. “They didn’t place as well as they know they could have. The divers have
really pushed each other and both of them were a couple of points away from setting a school record tonight. The harder they push each other the better they are going to be.”
The Wildcat relay teams placed fi rst and second in the 200-Yard Free Relay respec-tively with times of 1:41.95 and 201.99.
Mount Vernon’s 400 relay teams placed fi rst and fourth respectively, with times of 3:55.63 and 4:31.91.
It was Mount Vernon, also taking home top honors in the 200 Yard-Medley Relay 2:01.15. “For the girls we had a couple good relays,” said Loehr. “For the boys and the girls, were really trying to see which four kids work the best together. It’s a process, especially on medley races to fi nd our best combination of swimmers. No position on the relay is defi nite and so they all are trying their hardest. They all want to be on the “A” team, so they are all working a little harder.”
The boys put on a dominant display in the water as well. Travis Harris started things off with a second-place showing in the 50-Yard Free with a time of 25.42.
Austin Colson (53.04) and David Rhe-inhardt (54.37) topped the fi eld in the 100-Yard Free. Colson also placed second in the in 200-Yard Free with a time of 201.76.
Adam Duckworth (6:02.13) and Bailey Shumate (6:08.51) topped all swimmers in the 500-Yard Free.
Harris fi nished fi rst in the 100-Yard Back. The senior fi nished the race in a time of 1:02.77.
Zach Allyn’s 1:13.72 time in the 100-Yard Breaststroke was good enough to earn a fi rst-place fi nish.
By Brandon ColeMount Vernon topped Boonville 58-43 this week in an im-
pressive showing, but fell to the South Spencer Rebels 49-42.“Boonville is a much improved team from last year,” said
Wildcats head basketball coach Marc Hostetter. “They have some very good young post players that we did an excellent job defending. We ran good, had a patient offense and were able to get the ball inside. That in turn, opened up our perim-eter players.
Mount Vernon jumped out to a 16-12 lead by the end of the fi rst quarter. Steady play allowed the Wildcats to outscore Boonville in each period of the contest. “Our defense proved to be our bright spot as we held Boonville to 34-percent shooting,” said Hostetter.
Zac French led the team with 15 points. He also hauled in eight rebounds, just missing a double-double. Junior, Damon Collins added 11 points to the Wildcat total. Austin Krizan and Luke Steinhart each led the team with four assists.
Against the Rebels, Mount Vernon also jumped out to a quick lead. Just like the Boonville matchup, they led 16-12 after the fi rst period.
“Our defense continued to carry us,” said Hostetter. “We
held their two best players to 12 and three points. They had been averaging over 30 points together.”
At the half, the Wildcats held on to a 22-19 advantage. “However, in the third quarter our offense sputtered,” said Hostetter. “They went to a zone and we did not react well to it. We only scored two points and that makes it hard on your players, mentally.
In the fourth quarter, the Wildcats managed to put up their highest point total. They scored 18 points, but South Spencer ended up with 20. “Our shooting from the outside struggled and we allowed them to focus on our inside players,” said Hostetter. “Hopefully we learned that ball movement and spacing is the key to having success on offense.”
French led the Wildcats with 19 points, three assists and seven rebounds. Collins added 10 points and six rebounds. French had a nice weekend with a total of 34 points and 15 Rebounds.
The Wildcats will travel to Evansville Memorial on Friday. Action will tip off at 5:30 p.m. Mount Vernon will then host Heritage Hills on Saturday. Tip off is set for 5:30 p.m. The Wildcats will then take a short holiday break before returning to action on January 3, at Washington.
