one east of Britt. The third vehicle
was recovered in Garner.
“Take your keys with you when
you get out of the car and do not
leave valuables in the car such as
money and high dollar electronics,”
said Police Chief Tom Kozisek.

GHV musician crowned
Band Festival King
Rebecca Peter
gleadernews@qwestoffice.net
GARNER – It is good to be king. Jacob Folkers, a 2016 graduate of Garner-Hayfield-Ventura, was crowned
the 2016 North Iowa Band King. The
78th annual festival was over Memorial Day weekend in Mason City. The
Band Festival Parade was Saturday,
May 28.
Folkers, the son of Scott and Dana
Folkers, Garner, and Autumn Weaver,
daughter of Todd and Penny Weaver,
Garner, were the GHV candidates for
Band Festival king and queen. Autumn also played percussion at GHV.
Folkers participated in band for eight
years at Garner. He played percussion
in the concert band and quad-toms in
marching band. He’s also played piano
for 13 years (two years in jazz band).
“I also dabble in playing the violin,”
he said.
Normally Folkers would have been
riding in the convertible with Autumn
during the parade, but he ended up
marching with GHV band for most of
the parade.
An underclassman was going to
march with the quad-toms in place of
Jacob, but sustained an injury a few
days earlier.
“We made a plan for me to play the
quad-toms until the parade was almost
complete,” said Jacob. “After that, he
relieve me for the last quarter mile,
and I rode the rest of the way with Autumn.”

However, Jacob was glad for the opportunity to march with the band one
last time before heading off to Wartburg college next fall.
Judges interviewed the king and
queen candidates. Some of the questions candidates were asked included, “If you could go anywhere in
the world, where would you go and
why?”, “What are some of your
proudest accomplishments in high
school?”, “What are your plans for after high school?”, “What was one of
the funniest / embarrassing things to
ever happen to you?”, and “What was
the biggest challenge that you’ve had
to overcome in high school?”
When the announcement came that
Folkers was the 2016 Band Festival
King, “my jaw almost fell off my
face!” he said.
In addition to band, Folkers participated in baseball, basketball, track,
golf, speech, drama, choir, jazz choir,
NHS, First Tech Robotics team, and
the school variety show at GHV.
Jacob plans to attend Wartburg College this fall and pursue a major in engineering science and physics. He also
intends to be involved with music at
Wartburg.
“One of the scholarships I received
requires me to sing in a choir at Wartburg and take vocal lessons,” he said.
“I have also received information
about the Wartburg bands and am
thinking about auditioning for the
woodwind ensemble.”
This summer Jacob is working for
Brant’s Lawn Care and for the Garner
Country Club.
Carley Miller, a graduate of Central
Springs High School, was crowned
the 2016 Band Festival Queen. The
Garner-Hayfield-Ventura marching
band placed third among 3A bands
during the parade marching band competition.
The North Iowa Band Festival is
sponsored by the Mason City Chamber of Commerce in honor of the community’s musical heritage.

BRITT-A historic building in downtown Britt will be marking its 100th
year of standing at the corner of Center Street and Main this year.
The building, which once housed a
bank, saw its future in jeopardy just
over a year ago until a group of individuals stepped up to raise the funds
to help spare the structure from demolition.
The BRITT –Beautifying, Restoring, Investing Today and Tomorrow-Group, officially purchased the
building from the City of Britt late
last year, and has since begun work
on the building to help return it to its
original beauty.
In September, a crumbling addition was torn down from the west
side of the building, helping to make
it safe for those who pass by. A chain
link fence, which had surrounded the
structure for more than four years
was removed, and roof repairs are
expected to be complete within the
month.
The completion of the roofing project will allow for more to be done in
the interior of the building.
The group is also in the process of
applying for the century old building
to be placed on the National Registry of Historic Places, which BRITT
Group President Jim Nelson said

Memorial Day – a time of reconciliation
Rebecca Peter
gleadernews@qwestoffice.net
GARNER - Central Park was the
setting for Memorial Day services
at Garner. Pastor Keith Hood, a U.S.
Army veteran who served from 1986
to 1993, was the speaker. Hood served
as a flight medic assistant with the
10th Mountain Division during Operation Desert Storm (Aug. 2, 1990 to
Feb. 28, 1991).
Hood gave a brief history of the origins of Memorial Day.
Decorating graves of Civil War veterans occurred in both the North and
South following the Civil War.
1915, John McCrae’s poem,” In
Flanders Fields” inspired the sale and
wearing of artificial poppies for Memorial Day to benefit disabled veterans
“Memorial Day is not about division,” Hood said. “It’s about reconciliation. It’s about coming together to

Hood noted that of the veterans in attendance at Garner, “Not one, whether
he served in peacetime or in war, came
back unchanged.”
Whether physical or psychological
changes, “every veteran in attendance
today came back different from when
he raised his hand and entered service.”
“We cover our hearts with our hands
during the national anthem out of respect for those who have given their
lives and their families,” he said. “It
really is up to you to teach our young
…to teach the next generation…what
Memorial Day truly stands for.”
“We still today have those who are

“We cannot let this holiday fall to the

From puzzle solver to puzzle maker
By Travis Fischer
For most people, the Rubik’s Cube
is a toy that few people have the patience to figure out. For Harley Olsthoorn of Garner though, the 3x3x3
cube was only the beginning.
Olsthoorn had been a fan of the
Rubik’s Cube for decades, but didn’t
think much about what else could
be out there until about a year and a
half ago. Searching the internet on a
whim, Olsthoorn discovered a whole
world of increasingly advanced
puzzles to challenge himself with,
sparking an interest that has turned
into a fully fledged hobby.
“I looked on the internet and realized that there was a whole community of puzzle people,” said Olsthoorn. “So then I started collecting some
of the other puzzles.”
Today Olsthoorn has graduated far
beyond the typical Rubik’s Cube.
The shelves of his office are adorned
with a collection of cubes, polyhedrons, and spheres, all with their
own twist on the traditional rotational puzzle concept. With 107 currently in his possession, Olsthoorn has
become an adept puzzle solver, capable of solving a standard cube in a
matter of minutes.
From the 13x13x13 cube to the
12-sided dodecahedron, Olsthoorn
has spent the better part of the last
two years shuffling puzzles of different shapes and sizes and putting
them back together.
“All puzzles work the same way,”
said Olsthoorn, who uses a formula of
moves to help him work out the complicated method of rearranging the
various colored pieces back into order.
Once he was no longer satisfied
with the standard puzzles at his disposal, Olsthoorn started looking to
the modding [modifying] community for an even greater challenge. Finding fellow enthusiasts at TwistyPuzzles.com, Olsthoorn discovered
a new world of modifications to classic puzzles to try. By cutting, gluing,
and re-stickering them, new dynamics can be added to standard puzzles.
“It becomes a totally different puzzle,” said Olsthoorn. “People are
making new one every week.”
Inspired by the modifications he’d
encountered, Olsthoorn decided to
try his hand at creating a custom
puzzle of his own, taking the leap
from puzzle solver to puzzle maker.
Not one to start small, Olsthoorn
decided to design a modification to
the 12-sided, nine-layered Petaminx,
a monster-sized puzzle with hundreds of parts to shuffle and solve.
Olsthoorn, who had already solved a
Petaminx of his own, carefully plotted out a new configuration for the
puzzle to increase the difficulty.
Creating new puzzles can be just
as challenging as solving them. To
make a successful modification, one
must be able to change the way pieces move without making the puzzle
unsolvable. In Olsthoorn’s case, this
meant designing it in a way that all
BUILDING from page 1
will help determine what renovations can
be done.
The group will hold a celebration on
Sunday afternoon, beginning at 1:30
p.m. to help commemorate the building’s
100th year in downtown Britt.
“We wanted to come up with a way to
help celebrate 100 years of life of this old
bank,” said Connecticut Shorty, who has
helped with the restoration and preservation efforts. “We thought the best way to
do that would be to invite the whole town.”
Paula Mohr, a an architectural historian
and PHD with the Iowa State Historical
Preservation Office in Des Moines, will
be the featured speaker at the event. There
will be a display of artifacts on the building’s history, and entertainment.
Local DJ Service Mojo Productions donated their time to provide music and a
sound system for the afternoon. Birthday
cupcakes made by several local residents
will be provided as well as a birthday
cake donated by Mason City Hy-Vee and
beverages provided by Wal-Mart .

Harley Olsthoorn, in the midst of solving his custom-built “JAMmed Petaminx,” lives in Garner with his
wife, Ana, and one of their sons, Ivan.
ond Petaminx, glue, and a set of
custom designed stickers, Olsthoorn spent 60 hours taking one of the
most elaborate puzzles available and
making it even more complicated.
Finally, in April, Olsthoorn introduced his one-of-a-kind “JAMmed
Petaminx” to the puzzle community. His efforts were well rewarded,
earning praise from world-renowned
puzzle designer Tony Fisher for his
work.
For Olsthoorn, that recognition
made the whole project worth the
effort.
“He’s a genius,” said Olsthoorn.
“He’s one of my heroes.”
The puzzle community was so
impressed with Olsthoorn’s work
that his “JAMmed Petaminx” was
included in the online puzzle museum, one of ten Petaminx variations
to gain the honor.
“It was a fulfillment of a small
dream to be recognized as a puzzle
creator,” said Olsthoorn.
As for the puzzle itself, Olsthoorn
wanted a challenge and that’s exactly what he got. He has spent 40 to 50
hours trying to solve his custom puzzle and estimates that he’s just over
half done putting it back together.
In the meantime, Olsthoorn will
continue to seek out new challenges,
and encourages others to try the same.
“Keep challenging yourself because
these puzzles aren’t as hard as you
think,” said Olsthoorn. “You just have
to figure out how to figure it out.”

Vocal Minority Report
punching black kids or harassing
super delegates with 2 a.m. phone
calls. (Hillary Clinton seems to have
avoided this problem by going to
great lengths to ensure nobody gets
too excited about her campaign.)
Late night phone calls aren’t reserved for national politics either.
Before voting down the economic
package that would have facilitated the Prestage pork plant in Mason City, the city council members
shared their displeasure with the
behavior of some of the project’s opponents. Specifically, the ones that
called their jobs and yelled at their
co-workers.
Who does this? What’s happening
here?
Is society crumbling? Are we all
just meaner than we used to be?
Have we always been like this and
is the internet just exposing how bad
we’ve always been?
Not really. No.
While yes, the internet has made
it easier for the worst among us to
spread their toxic messages, these
people should not be taken as representatives of the whole. The amount
of attention we give to outliers is
more of a problem than the outliers
themselves. Overreacting to an overreaction has a multiplicative effect.
Sometimes it’s a matter of laziness.
A couple of internet trolls decide to
lay out some bait for the media and
the next thing you know “Racist
Fans Boycott Star Wars” is trending
across the web. Not because there
was actually a legitimate movement,
but because it’s easier to play a game
of internet telephone than doing any
investigative legwork.
Other times, it’s a deliberate effort to push a narrative. When the
video games journalism industry
was caught with their pants down
two years ago, sparking the ongoing Gamergate controversy, they
were quick to label their detractors
as sexists, racists, terrorists, and
any other label they could think of
to deflect attention away from their
own failings.
Extreme examples may make for
entertaining reading, but they don’t
serve well to represent the whole.
The few Captain America fans that
sent death threats to Nick Spencer
don’t represent the people who merely think the idea is dumb.
The few gamers that sent threats
to Sean Murray are vastly outnumbered by the ones who expressed
sentiments of support and understanding.
Not all Donald Trump supporters
are racists.
Not all Bernie Sanders supporters
are idiots.
And while plenty of people have
their concerns about the Prestage
project, they should not be collectively represented by the guy incoherently yelling at the Mason City Chamber
of Commerce about squirrels.
I’m not saying that the outliers aren’t worthy of notice or discussion,
but it’s important to put them in the
proper context. Oddly enough, it
seems like the more we try to lump
people together, the more divided we
get.

HCHS urges public
to beware of bedbugs
HANCOCK COUNTY - Hancock
County Health System (HCHS) is
recognizing Bed Bug Awareness
Week (June 5 to 11) by ensuring residents know what to do should they
suspect that bed bugs are in their
home.
“Bed bugs are becoming much
more common, and residents need
to know how to identify and differentiate between bed bugs and other
bugs,” said Denise Hiscocks, HCHS
Director of Community Health.
Bed bugs are oval, wingless insects that reach about ¼ inch in
length. They have flat bodies that
are reddish-brown in color and are
the size of an apple seed or smaller.
They may sometimes be mistaken
for ticks or small cockroaches. Bed
bugs can survive for months without
feeding.
Bed bugs can live in any area of the
home and can reside in tiny cracks in
furniture as well as on textiles and
upholstered furniture. They tend to
be most common in areas where
people sleep and generally concentrate in beds, including mattresses,
box springs and bed frames. Bed
bugs also can reside in curtains, the
corners of dressers and other furniture, cracks in wallpaper and inside
the spaces of wicker furniture.
Another home for bed bugs can
be used items. Individuals should
be cautious and inspect items when
purchasing or bringing used items
(i.e. online, garage sales) into the
home.
“Dirty living conditions do not
cause bed bugs. However, it makes

them much more difficult to remove,” Hiscocks said.
Bed bug bites typically appear in
rows or are concentrated in one area.
They tend to resemble mosquito or
flea bites. Reactions may vary and
can include itching and swelling.
Bed bugs are not known to carry or
transmit disease.
There are many ways to detect
the presence of bed bugs. The most
effective method is a visual assessment. Check for the actual bug, their
droppings or eggs, or fecal staining
on walls. Bed bugs are known to
leave a dark brown or reddish fecal
spot on bed linens, mattresses or
walls near the bed. They have glands
that emit an odor that has been described as musty raspberry or coriander-like that may be noticeable in
heavy infestations.
Should you discover you have bed
bugs, there are many treatment options. Contact a pest control company. Experts can assist you in determining the appropriate treatment
options and if larger items should be
disposed of or treated.
Heat is the best treatment. Bed
bugs die in temperatures greater than 120° F. You can do this by
applying the highest heat setting on
your washer and dryer, or by utilizing professional services.
Discarding items is typically not
necessary. However, if you do discard an item, please do so responsibly. Wrap item in secure plastic
sheeting to prevent spreading them
elsewhere in the house, and label it
with a sign reading “BED BUGS”.

The Heartland Museum is located

Other options to temporarily manage bed bugs or limit the severity of
an infestation may include active or
passive interceptor traps, mattress or
box spring encasements, silica gel or
desiccant dust, or vacuuming (with
removable bag) and cleaning.
Being educated to recognize and
avoid an infestation is the best way
to prevent them from being introduced into your home.
When traveling and staying in
hotels, pull back the bedspreads,
sheets and mattress pad to examine
the mattress for signs of a bed bug
infestation. If you suspect they are
present, contact the hotel staff.
If you suspect you have them in
your home or that you have been
exposed, launder clothing as soon
as it is brought back into the home,
inspect and thoroughly vacuum suitcases or personal belongings, repair
cracks in walls, and caulk windows
and doors. In cases where you suspect bed bugs are present, do not
move potentially infested furniture
to a different room or choose to start
sleeping in a different room of the
home. You will risk spreading the
infestation.
“The bad news is, everyone is at
risk for bed bugs. The good news is,
everyone can play a role in limiting
the spread of bed bugs if they are
aware of bed bugs and remember to
look for them,” Hiscocks said. For

By Travis Fischer
Captain America is a Hydra spy
and always has been.
At least what writer Nick Spencer
wants you to believe after reading
the first issue of “Captain America:
Steve Rogers,” which hit shelves a
couple weeks ago.
The details aren’t entirely clear, but
it appears Captain America’s history
has been rewritten to turn him into a
Nazi loving double agent.
The only thing more absurd than
that premise is the reaction it has
invoked. In spite of the fact that
Captain America has, in just the last
decade, been dead and turned into
an elderly man (in that order), and
come out of both changes no worse
for ware, a surprising number of
people seem to think that this is the
shocking twist that will change the
character forever.
It won’t, but some people don’t realize this. So now Spencer is receiving the same kind of grief not seen
since the last time somebody at Marvel made a huge change to a beloved
character. Which, of course, includes
a number of death threats.
Death threats over silly things are
hardly uncommon on the internet.
As Spencer was dealing with the
fallout from his Captain America
reveal, game developer Sean Murray had the misfortune of telling an
overly eager audience that the upcoming game, “No Man’s Sky,” had
been delayed.
That’s right. Death threats over the
relatively common practice of delaying a video game. People can get really passionate about things.
Outside of pop culture, we see
similar behavior in politics. Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders have
very little in common when it comes
to their political platform, but both
have attracted a contingent of, let’s
say “spirited” supporters. Ones that

‘Reach Out and Read’
literacy program introduced at HCHS clinics
HANCOCK COUNTY- Getting books
from the doctor will soon be a routine part
of regular pediatric checkups at all four
Hancock County Health System primary
care clinics (Britt, Garner, Kanawha and
Wesley), as providers and nurses welcome the Reach Out and Read program
to the practice. HCHS Clinics join more
than 5,000 program sites nationwide that
are preparing America’s youngest children to succeed in school.
Providers, nurses and other medical
professionals incorporate Reach Out
and Read’s evidence-based model into
regular pediatric checkups, by advising
parents about the importance of reading
aloud and giving developmentally-appropriate books to children. They are essentially providing families with “prescriptions to read.”
“We know that reading and the ability
to read is the door opener to the 21st century – especially in today’s world, which
is full of digital information,” said Jamie
Brantner, PA-C, HCHS Clinics.
Reach Out and Read begins at the
6-month checkup and continues through
age 5, with a special emphasis on children
growing up in low-income communities.
Families served by Reach Out and Read
read together more often, and their children enter kindergarten with larger vocabularies and stronger language skills,
better prepared to achieve their potential.
Pediatric healthcare providers are
trained in the three-part Reach Out and
Read model to promote early literacy
and school readiness. In the exam room,
doctors and nurses speak with parents
about the importance of reading aloud to
their young children every day, and offer
age-appropriate tips and encouragement.
The pediatric primary care provider gives
every child 6 months through 5 years old
a new, developmentally appropriate children’s book to take home and keep. In the
waiting room, displays, information, and
books create a literacy-rich environment.
“Reach Out and Read is an efficient and
effective concept,” said Reach Out and
Read acting Executive Director Brian
Gallagher. “Our providers and nurses
know that the most important thing that
parents can do to prepare their children to
succeed in school and beyond is to read
aloud to them every day. Encouraging
Jamie Brantner
parents to stimulate their children’s early
language and brain development during
regular pediatric checkups is a simple
model that has a lasting, invaluable impact on the life of a child.”
Reach Out and Read is a proven intervention that delivers results, and is
supported by 15 independent, published

After beginning Top of Iowa Conference baseball action with a pair
of wins the GHV Cardinals fell in
the standings after dropping games
to Bishop Garrigan and Lake Mills.
The Cards did pick up a non-conference win over Rockford.
Tuesday’s game at Belmond was
postponed due to wet field conditions but the field at Algona was dry
enough on Wednesday for GHV to
make the road trip. After two scoreless innings Garrigan plated a run in
the third inning and then appeared to
break the game open with a four-run
fourth inning. GHV answered with
two runs in the fifth and three more in
the sixth to knot the score at 5 – 5 but
the Golden Bears managed to score
three times in their half of the sixth to
gain the win.

with a double and a single while Ryan
Meyers added a pair of base hits. Ryley
Kozisek, Colton Schroeder, Cade Bamrick, Cade Baker and Payton James all
collected singles for GHV.

mound for the Cards, surrendering
eight hits and four walks with four
strikeouts. Holden Hutcheson made
a brief relief appearance, allowing
two hits and a walk while Nick Joynt
finished the game with a walk and a
strikeout.
GHV rebounded on Thursday with
a solid 8 – 1 win over Rockford. The
Cardinals gained the early lead with a
Weekend baseball tournaments are
commonly viewed as an opportunity
for teams to get more game experience while competing against unfamiliar teams. The GHV Cardinals
played in two separate tournaments
last week, traveling to Fort Dodge
on Monday and then at Humboldt on
Saturday.
The Cardinals’ first game on
Monday resulted in a 6 – 1 loss to
the tourney host, Fort Dodge St.
Edmond. After two scoreless innings the Gaels scattered their six
runs over the next four innings to
pull ahead for the win. GHV’s lone
run came in the sixth inning when
Payton James scored on Holden
Hutcheson’s single.
The Cardinals managed only five
base hits in the game as James, Cade
Bamrick, Cade Baker, Nick Joynt
and Hutcheson all singled. Ryley
Kozisek started on the mound for
the Cards and surrendered four hits
and two walks with three strikeouts.
Alek Goll relieved Kozisek in the
fifth inning to give up three this and
a walk with two strikeouts.
GHV’s second game on Monday
turned out to be a pitcher’s duel as
West Marshall held on for a 1 – 0
win over the Cards. Colton Schroeder and Cade Bamrick were the
only Cardinals able to pick up a
base hit in the game. Alek Goll had
a strong performance on the mound,
giving up four hits and two walks
with a strikeout. Anthony Sherwood
fanned four with a walk in four innings of relief action.
GHV’s first game of the day at
Humboldt on Saturday produced
bigger numbers on the scoreboard
that a lot of football games with the
Cardinals posting a 19 – 13 win over
the Wildcats. The Cards scored eight
runs through the first three innings
and then added six more in the fifth
and another five in the seventh to
preserve the win.
The GHV bats produced 15 hits in
the game led by Harley Forry with
a grand slam homer and a single.
Alek Goll added a double and three
singles followed by Cade Baker and

Eagle baseball Cards drop
splits week; 2-2 two TIC games
pair of runs in the bottom of the first
but the Warriors closed the gap to 2 –
1 in the fourth. GHV then broke the
game open with six runs in the bottom
of the fifth.
Colton Schroeder, Cade Baker and
Payton James all connected for a pair
of base hits while Anthony Sherwood
finished with two RBI’s on a double.
Also hitting singles were Cade Bamrick, Nick Joynt and Conner Shaw.
Ryan Meyers earned the win on
the mound for the Cards, scattering
three hits and two walks with nine
strikeouts in the complete game.
A late Cardinal rally in Friday’s
game against Lake Mills proved to
be too little too late as the Bulldogs
held on for a 6 – 3 win. Lake Mills
scored three runs in the first inning
and then pushed the lead to 4 – 0 with
a run in the top of the third. GHV got
on the board with a run in the sixth
only to see the Bulldogs score two
insurance runs in the seventh. GHV
scored twice and had the winning
run at the plate when the last ditch
rally fizzled.
GHV was held to four hits in
the game as Ryley Kozisek, Cade
Bamrick, Cade Baker and Anthony
Sherwood all singled.
Anthony Sherwood started on the
mound for GHV, giving up two hits
and two walks with six strikeouts.
Colton Schroeder relieved Sherwood in the fourth inning, holding
the Bulldogs to one hit and four
walks with two strikeouts.

GHV’s Payton Bamrick passes the ball up field during the Cards
1-0 win over Clear Lake. Bamrick scored the lone goal in the
match.
GHV girls gain first
regional soccer win
Post-season soccer action began
for Class 1A girls last week and the
GHV squad made history by winning their first-ever regional match.
The Cardinals hosted Clear Lake
on Monday, coming out on top in
a defensive battle. The season then
ended on Friday with the Cards’
were second round loss at Hudson.
Payton Bamrick’s long range goal
proved to be enough on Tuesday as
GHV avenged two previous losses
to Clear Lake by a score of 1 – 0.
The Cardinals had plenty of scoring opportunities with Autumn
Weaver finishing with seven shots
on goal. Bamrick was credited with
two shots on goal while Jacki Van
Oort and Hannah Lau each had one.
Morgan Westendorf picked up six
saves at the goal for GHV.
Cardinal coach Josh Banse commented, “This is the first time we
have ever gotten a victory in regional play! We had a game plan
to occupy the middle and we executed it to perfection. It is always
nice to see e girls dig deep for a
victory and that was especially
true tonight.”
GHV’s season came to a close in
Friday’s second round regional game
at Hudson. The Pirates took advantage of playing on their home field in
a 4 – 0 decision over the Cards.
Hudson’s defense kept GHV
away from the net as Payton Bamrick and Payton Echelberger managed only two and one shots-ongoal. Morgan Westendorf finished
the night with five saves.
“Hudson is a good team and we
played well enough to compete
with them,” remarked Banse. “Our
seniors will be missed tremendously next season! Seniors were
Autumn Weaver, Payton Bamrick,
Hannah Sokol, Sydney Childress
and Ashlee Diaz. These five girls
have accumulated thousands of
minutes on the pitch and it will
be hard to replace them. The good
thing is that we are moving in the
right direction and improving every year! We had a good season
and fought hard. We won’t hang
our heads but will start working to
keep that improvement going!”
The Cardinals finished the season with an overall record of 7-9.

Schedule your student’s
back to school physicals!
HANCOCK COUNTY - School just
got out, but now is the perfect time to
make sure your child(ren) are ready
for next fall. “It’s never too early to
schedule your child’s back to school
physical,” said Lenise Kollasch, director, HCHS clinics. “There are
some students who need a physical
whether it’s to begin school as a kindergartner or college freshmen or to
participate in high school athletics.”
The first year of school (kindergarten), each student will receive a
complete physical that includes a review of the child’s medical history, a
physical examination, and an immunization update.
All student athletes have to have
a physical before they can begin to
practice. At HCHS, this means he/
she will receive a complete physical,
as well as having the HCHS provider
complete the necessary forms needed for sports or school participation.
For college-bound students,
much like the first year of school
physicals, each college freshman
will receive a complete physical and
an immunization update.
While having an annual physical
is a must for some students, it should
be on the list for all adults, as well.
“I certainly understand why a person
would question why you would go see
the doctor if you are feeling fine, but
an annual check-up will offer your
healthcare provider an opportunity
for primary prevention, meaning preventing disease before it happens, by
addressing risk factors in otherwise
healthy individuals,” Kollasch said.
GHV added another TIC softball
win to their record last week with a 3 –
1 win over Lake Mills on Friday. After
being rained out on Tuesday, the Cards
fell to Garrigan on Wednesday and
Humboldt on Thursday. The Cardinals
then dropped a pair of non-conference
games at Lake Mills on Saturday in
tournament play.
There was plenty of offense on display at Algona on Wednesday as the
Cards and Garrigan combined to plate
29 runs. GHV scored twice in the top
of the first inning only to see the Golden Bears score eight times in their half
of the inning. The Cards added three
to their total in the second inning and
Garrigan again answered, this time
with four runs in the bottom of the second. After two scoreless innings, both
teams added runs to their total in their
last three at-bats. When the dust settled
at the end of the game, Garrigan finished on the winning side of a 17 – 12
decision.
Katie Oetken slammed a homer and
two singles to lead GHV at the plate
while Bailee Pitzenberger added a
double and two singles for the Cards.
Abby Kale chipped in a double and
a single while Jacki Van Oort and
Payton Bamrick each collected three
singles. Mackenzie Van Gerpen and
Jillian Heitland added base hits to the
Cardinal offense.
The Cardinals hosted Humboldt on
Thursday in a non-conference outing
against the 14-ranked Wildcats. Humboldt displayed power at the plate as
they recorded a 10-run 12 – 2 seven-inning win.
The Wildcats scored twice in the first
inning and when GHV answered with
two in their half of the first Cardinal
fans were optimistic about being able
to play with the Wildcats. Humboldt
then displayed why they are ranked,
scoring six runs in the second inning
to take control of the game. GHV was
unable to bring home any more runs
and Humboldt gradually built their
lead to end the game early.
Mackenzie Van Gerpen and Megan Oetken each hit doubles to lead
the GHV offense. Jacki Van Oort
and Abby Kale added base hits for
follow.

the Cards.
Bailee Pitzenberger started on the
mound for GHV, surrendering nine
hits and two walks with three strikeouts. Jillian Heitland relieved Pitzenberger in the fourth inning and gave up
two hits and six walks with a strikeout.
GHV got back into the win column
on Friday in a rain-shortened game
against Lake Mills. The Cards scored
a run in the third inning and two more
in the fourth on the way to a 3 – 2 victory. The game was called due to rain
in the bottom of the fifth.
Miranda Jackson led GHV at the
plate with a double while Jayden
Hughes, Bailee Pitzenberger, Megan
Oetken and Trinity Smith all singled.
Jillian Heitland earned the pitching
win for the Cards, scattering four hits
and four walks with four strikeouts.
GHV traveled to Lake Mills on
Saturday for two tournament games
against unfamiliar opponents. In that
action the Cards lost to a very strong
Central Springs team before dropping
a close game to Rockford.
Central Springs is rated eighth in Class
2A and the Panthers had little trouble
handling the inexperienced Cardinals.
GHV was unable to gain a hit in the
game while Central Springs scored
four times in the first inning and then
plated 11 more in the second to end
the game with a 15 – 0 win in three
Many conditions, such as heart
disease and high blood pressure, can
be present without symptoms until
they become serious. So by having an
annual check-up, your provider can
work with you to potentially prevent
these illnesses before they occur.
To prepare for any physical,
whether for your child or yourself,
you should create a list of questions
and be sure to prioritize what is most
to least important. You might even
want to make it very clear at the beginning of the visit what you really
want to discuss.
On the flip side, you should allow
time for your provider to address their
top concerns about your health. They
may have important information to
share regarding a blood test result or
a new medical recommendation for
you that is worth listening to.
If you would like to schedule a
physical with a HCHS provider at a
clinic in Britt, Garner, Kanawha or
Wesley, call 641-843-5050.

Eagle softball scores first victory
The West Hancock softball team
earned their first win of the season
last week with a 16-9 victory over
North Iowa in Britt.
The Eagles fell to Clarion-Goldfield-Dows the night before 1-14 and
then to North Union and Forest City
both 0-12 on Thursday and Friday
respectively.
The game was tied 1-1 after the first
against Clarion-Goldfield; the Cowgirls
took the lead in the third 3-1 before
running away with it in the fourth with
11 runs to secure the 14-1 win over the
Eagles.
Ryann Hagen, Alyssa Klepoch and
Sydney Burgardt each had one single,
while Klepoch batted in the lone run
scored by Hagen.
Klepoch pitched four innings walking nine, striking out four, allowing 11
hits and 14 runs (13 earned).
The Eagles rebounded from the
tough loss the following night to pick
up that first win.
Both North Iowa and West Hancock
were tied 3-3 after the first. The Eagles
Alyssa Klepoch
Sydney Burgardt
added three runs in the second to lead
6-3, before the Bison scored five in the
fourth to take over 8-6.
West Hancock responded with five
runs of their own n the fifth to take back
the lead 11-9, before securing the win
with a final five runs in the sixth for the
16-9 final.
Klepoch led with three hits (two doubles), including five RBI’s.
Brigid Smith, Natalie Lemmon and
Sydney Hudspeth all had two hits
apiece, including a double from Lemmon, while Burgardt added one single.
Following Klepoch, Smith batted in
four runs, both Hagen and Lemmon
had two apiece and one each by Katlyn
Ohrt and Hudspeth.
Hagen, Smith and Hudspeth all
scored three runs apiece; Lemmon had
two, while Burgardt, Kaitlyn Smith,
Sydney Zamago, Alexis Klepoch and
Megan Schreuer all had one run each.
Alyssa Klepoch pitched all seven innings for 12 K’s, four walks, 11 hits, and
Frayne places
third at State Golf
Lenise Kollasch
innings. Pitzenberger surrendered 13
hits and a walk in her two innings on
the Cardinal mound.
GHV scored eight runs against the
Warriors but too many miscues on
the field allowed Rockford to pick up
an 11 – 8 decision. Payton Bamrick
singled twice to lead the Cardinals at
the plate. Jacki Van Oort and Miranda
Jackson added base hits to the offense.
Ashley Markla started on the mound
for GHV and allowed eight hits with
four strikeouts. Bailee Pitzenberger relieved Markla in the fifth inning and
gave up five hits.
GHV coach Matt Graham commented, “We’re still giving up too many
outs defensively. We need to shore
up our defense. The hitting is coming
along but we’re not getting the twoout hit with people on base and we’re
also having trouble getting that third
out when we’re in the field.”
The Cards are now 2 – 5 on the season and will travel to Eagle Grove
on Monday before hosting Osage in
non-conference action on Tuesday.
After taking Wednesday off, GHV
will travel to Rockford on Thursday
for another non-conference before
returning home on Friday to face
North Union. GHV will then play
two games at Algona in another Saturday tournament.

After just missing a state tournament medal last season, GHV sophomore Bailee Frayne made a big
move in the standings this year by
placing third at the Class 3A State
Golf Meet. Bailee finished solidly
in third after outscoring the fourth
place finisher by four strokes.
Frayne played at Coldwater Links
Golf Course in Ames with her first
day of play scheduled on Tuesday.
Bailee scored three pars, three bogeys and three doubles on the way to
a 44 on the front nine and then began
the back nine with a disastrous triple-bogey. Two more bogeys put the
GHV star in a bit of a hole but Frayne
bounced back with a string of four
pars and a birdie before bogeying the
final hole in a rain storm. After the
first day of play, Bailee’s 84 put her
in a tie for fifth place overall with 18
more holes on Wednesday.
Frayne’s first nine holes on
Wednesday produced her best round
of the season with an Eagle, three
pars and five bogeys totaling 38.
Again, the second nine began with
a terribly as errant shots into a hazard resulted in a score of eight for
the par 4 hole. Bailee responded
with a birdie and a par on the next
two holes before going four over on
the next three holes. Frayne finished
the round with three pars to shoot 43
on that nine and total 81 for the day.
Frayne’s two-day total of 165 was 11
shots shy of second and 25 strokes
out of first place.

Iowa Girls State is one of the premier programs sponsored by the
American Legion Auxiliary. Girls
State started over 70 years ago to
teach young women about the political process. Girls State is a “learning by doing” program, which takes
the girls through the entire political
process.
It covers city government, which
is non-partisan in Iowa. Each citizen
is assigned to a floor, which is her
city for the week. Early in the week,
the girls elect their mayors and city
councils, transact city business, pass
city ordinances and work on a city
project for judging later. They are divided into political parties and campaign to get their party’s candidates
elected. By the end of the week, delegates have elected county and state
officials.
On Friday evening, inauguration
is held, which includes the closing of the final joint session of the
House and Senate, the installation
of the governor and her officials.
During the week, the American
Legion Auxiliary President speaks
about the various programs and
there are several speakers on a variety of subjects.

Science of Parenting—
Dealing with picky eaters
By Lori Hayungs and Laura
Sternweis, Iowa State University
Extension and Outreach
AMES – Many parents worry about
what their children eat — and don’t
eat. However, when parents and
children engage in mealtime battles,
nobody wins. Instead, parents should
focus on preventing power struggles
over food, say the Science of Parenting bloggers from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach.
“Most kids get plenty of variety
and nutrition in their diet, even if
they don’t want to eat particular
foods,” said Lori Hayungs, a human
sciences specialist in family life.
“But if you’re concerned about
your child’s eating habits, talk to
your health care provider who can
help you review your child’s growth.
Start a ‘food log’ and keep track of
the types and amounts of food your
child eats and share that information
with your healthcare provider as
well,” Hayungs said.
In June, Hayungs and other human
sciences specialists will be blogging
about how to make mealtime fun
rather than a power struggle. They’ll
talk about establishing healthy food
routines and giving kids opportunities to make their own food choices.
They’ll also discuss the importance
of modeling healthy eating behaviors and strategies for removing distractions like television and electronic gadgets during mealtime.
“Your child’s eating habits won’t
change overnight, but the small steps
you take each day can help promote a
lifetime of healthy eating,” Hayungs
said.
Learn more from tips on the blog
throughout the month and in a short
podcast. Through the Science of Parenting, www.scienceofparenting.org,
ISU Extension and Outreach specialists share and discuss research-based
information and resources to help
parents rear their children. Parents
can join in the conversation and
share thoughts and experiences, as
well as how they handle parenting
responsibilities.
The new flags at the Ell Township Cemetery were donated by Leland Hummel and his wife, the late Beulah Hummel and family: Curt and
Diane Stadlander, Joleen and Ben Chiodo and families. The Avenue of Flags for Memorial Day at Klemme was started by Elmer and Gladys Wessels during the 1970s. The tradition contkinues to this day.
Memorial Day honors fallen comrades
Rebecca Peter
gleadernews@qwestoffice.net
KLEMME - Don Latham, a veteran
of the Vietnam War, was the Memorial Day speaker at Klemme. Latham
was a pilot operations officer and flew
assault helicopter missions from 197071. His unit’s primary mission was to
support a South Vietnamese infantry
division.
“Today is the day set aside to honor
those who served, but did not live but
did not live to be called veterans.”
“We say these men and women gave
their lives for their country,” he said.
“But of those that I knew, I don’t think
any willingly gave their life. I prefer to
say their lives were taken from them
while they served their country.”
An estimated 58,267 Americans died
in Vietnam. That number continues to
change as remains of servicemen are
recovered and identified. Other servicemen, listed as missing in action,
are declared dead with the passage of
time.
“I’ve never been afraid of dying – I
wasn’t then and I’m not now. But that
doesn’t mean I wasn’t scared. I was
scared on most missions I flew. I remember well the first time I was shot
at,” he recalled. “Later that evening,
I got to thinking about the folks who
wouldn’t be returning and the fact they
were killed.”
Latham survived his tour of duty.
“Some of my classmates and friends
were not as fortunate,” he stated. “The
best way I can honor those with whom
I served and made the ultimate sacrifice is to dispell some of the myths and
popular beliefs that tend to discredit
or minimize the men and women who
served in Vietnam.
He said one such myth was that
America lost the war in Vietnam.
“The fact is this was a politically
driven war,” he stated. “The rules of
engagement were such that we were
not allowed to return fire until we got
clearance from the political hierarchy.
That greatly hindered the military
from doing their job.”
Rebecca Peter | The Leader
Don Latham, a veteran of the
Vietnam war, was the Memorial
Day speaker at Klemme.
“The United States didn’t lose the war
in Vietnam. The South Vietnamese did
after Congress cut off funding that was
promised in the Paris Peace accords.
The South Vietnamese ran out of fuel,
ammunition, and supplies because of
a lack of support from the U.S. Congress.”
Latham has returned to Vietnam
three times since the war: twice on
business and a third trip recently with
two other veteran U.S. pilots and their
wives.
He has worked with a Vietnamese
contractor who was an officer in the
North Vietnamese Army, but has since
become a friend.
“He told me [the North Vietnamese]
knew they couldn’t win militarily. If
they just waited, the American media
and public opinion would win the war
for them.”
“I just want to say that my service
in Vietnam was noble and for a just
cause. And my comrades in arms who
didn’t live to be veterans, did not die in
vain.”

Mid-America Publishing purchases Holstein Advance
Mid-America Publishing Corporation
is pleased to announce its purchase of
The Holstein Advance and Tri-Valley
AdVance Publishing from Mari Bauer,
of Holstein, effective May 31, 2016.
The Advance will be added to the
Hampton-based corporation’s growing
roster of 30 Iowa weekly newspapers
and shoppers.
Other nearby papers also owned by
Mid-America include those in Ida Grove
and Lake City.
“We are excited to assume the ownership of The Advance,” said Mid-America Publishing’s President and CEO,
Ryan Harvey. “After we purchased
the Courier and Reminder from Roger
Rector nearly a year ago, we began discussing the opportunity of buying The
Advance from Mari shortly thereafter.”
The transfer of ownership is related to
the Bauer’s decision to pursue other interests.
“We want to thank Mari for allowing
Mid-America to continue the legacy of
the Advance,” Harvey said. “We know
she’s put her heart and soul into the paper
and we look forward to working with the
area customers to provide a strong news
product going forward.”
Harvey will assume the duties and title
of publisher of the newspaper while the
staff of the Courier and Reminder will be
responsible for its day to day operations.
“We believe a local newspaper needs
to have local content,” Harvey said.
“Our mission going forward is to tell the
stories of local residents, report on local
events, and give strong coverage of local government at the city, county, and
school district levels. One of the specialties of the staff in Ida Grove has been to
provide quality indepth coverage in Holstein. We’ll ensure the paper’s future by
providing unique content, unique pho-

tos, and quality journalism for the folks
in the Holstein area.”
The publication will join Mid-America’s portfolio of weekly newspapers
which aside from the Courier and Reminder also include: The Calmar Courier; Postville Herald; The Outlook, in
Monona; The Eldora Herald-Ledger
and Hardin County Index, with an office
in Eldora; The Leader, with offices in
Garner and Britt; the Kanawha Reporter,
the Wright County Monitor, in Clarion
and Dows; the Eagle Grove Eagle; the
Buffalo Center Tribune, The Pioneer
Enterprise (Rockwell-Thornton), The
Sheffield Press; The Hampton Chronicle; The Butler County Tribune-Journal (Allison); the Clarksville Star, the
Ida County Courier in Ida Grove; The
Ogden Reporter, and The Graphic-Advocate, with offices in Lake City and
Rockwell City.
The company also owns and operates
newspapers in southeast Iowa, namely,
The News-Review, in Sigourney, The
Keota Eagle, Keota, and The Sun with
offices in New Sharon and Fremont.
The company additionally produces
two weekly political newspapers, the
Conservative Chronicle and the Liberal
Opinion Week as well as several TMC
shoppers, such as The Hampton Chronicle’s Bonus in Hampton, The Spectrum
in Lake City-Rockwell City, The Leader’s Shopper News Review in Garner,
The Reminder in Ida Grove; and the
Wright County Reminder in Clarion;
plus monthly shoppers such as The Dual
County Leader in Eagle Grove and the
Keokuk County Chief in Sigourney.
The company also publishes north
central Iowa’s only Latino-oriented
newspaper, Viva Iowa! which serves
Franklin and Wright Counties. In addition to its newspapers and shoppers
Mid-America operates a commercial
printing division that offers customized
printing and publishing solutions such as
banners, posters, postcards, direct mailing, mailing list management, letter head
design, newsletter management and
dozens of other marketing and promotional products which it plans to make
available locally in the Holstein area.

visited her daily.
Along with his brothers, Junior formed Jackson Brothers Construction and
they built and renovated numerous homes in and around Kanawha.
Junior’s woodworking skills spilled over into a hobby of building furniture and toys for friends and family. He also was an avid fisherman and he
enjoyed hunting and cooking. His “JR’s Bean Soup” is still a favorite at the
Kanawha Fire Department’s soup suppers. He was active member of the fire
department from 1972-1989.
Junior was a voracious reader, World War II historian, and he enjoyed the
Sunday crossword puzzles. He’ll be remembered most for his quick wit,
sense of humor, and love of family.
Junior is survived by his daughter Janet (Vern) Dietel of Kanawha; stepdaughter Beth (Tim) Poage of Corwith; grandchildren Jenny (Allen) Eden
and their children Delaney, Brooklynn and Jackson of Clear Lake and Jamie (Mike) Fischer and daughter Isabelle of Janesville, Minnesota; stepgrandchildren Tricia (Duane) McGregor and family, Cassie (Bruce) Collins
and family, Dan (Melissa) Burrs and family; step-daughter-in-law Jamie and
children Caitlin, Brianna, Hanna and Thomas; siblings Marian Kraft, Paul
(Kaye) Jackson and Vivian Waage; along with numerous nieces and nephews, other relatives and friends.
Junior is preceded in death by his parents, wife Ethelene in 2012, step-son
Scott Hall, siblings Leroy “Red” Jackson, Alvin Jackson, Stanley Jackson
and Luetta Stoeckel.
Ewing Funeral Home of Kanawha assisted the family with arrangements.

This is a weekly feature highlighting some of Iowa’s unsolved homicides in the hopes that it
will lead to new tips and potentially help solve cases. The project is a partnership between this
newspaper and other members of the Iowa Newspaper Association.
ROBERT “COREY” POFFENBERGER
Robert “Corey” Poffenberger was shot and
killed early Friday morning October 24, 2003,
in the driveway of his 2211 East 37th St. home
in Des Moines.
The 30-year-old Mediacom employee had
been shot several times in the chest, and was
found outside the open door of his vehicle, the
car still idling. Poffenberger’s wallet was left
untouched, and officials found nothing missing from his home.
There have never been any significant clues
or leads to find out who killed him.
Poffenberger was born in Bluffton, Indiana.
5b
After graduating from Indiana University in
1996, Poffenberger moved to Las Vegas and
worked as a club manger for four years before
moving to Minneapolis. He later moved to Des
Moines to work as a Marketing Coordinator
with Mediacom.
A $25,000 reward has been offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of
person(s) involved in Poffenberger’s unsolved
murder. Please contact the Des Moines Police
Department Detective Bureau at (515) 2834864 or Polk County CrimeStoppers at (515)
223-1400. Callers may remain anonymous.

and consistent burn. When coals are ready, arrange
a two-zone fire. Replace grate, allow it to heat up and
use tongs to brush with an oil-soaked paper towel.
2. Before placing on the grill, allow steak to sit 30
minutes at room temperature. Trim excess fat to avoid
flare-ups. Liberally apply salt and pepper. Flip and repeat.
3. Place steak at the hottest part of the grate, directly
above coals and sear 2-3 minutes, then flip and repeat.
Don’t move the steak, as this will prevent optimal grill
marks. Close the lid to prevent flare-ups.
4. After searing, move steak to the warm side of the
grate, close the lid and continue to cook until desired

on Behalf of Kingsford® Charcoal
Prep time: 15 minutes, plus 2-12 hours for marinade
Cook time: 10 minutes | Servings: 6
Ingredients:
2 flank steaks (approximately 2
pounds each)
1/4 cup thyme, freshly minced
2 tablespoons tarragon, freshly
minced
2 tablespoons black pepper, coarsely ground
1 tablespoon rosemary, freshly
minced
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 teaspoons salt

doneness. You don’t need to flip the steak during this
indirect grilling stage.
5. Using a digital instant-read meat thermometer,
check the temperature of the steak while it’s still on the
grill (125 F for rare, 135 F medium-rare, 145 F medium, 150 F medium well and 160 F for well done). Remember, steak will continue to cook after it’s removed
from the grill.
6. Place steak on cutting board, loosely cover with
aluminum foil and allow it to rest 5 minutes before
serving.
