Sen. John Hoeven spent time in southwest North Dakota on Monday to discuss federal issues that could impact local communities and advocated for the censure of some current regulations that indicate government overreach. Hoeven, R-N.D., spent the morning in Bowman, and traveled to Amidon in the afternoon. With emphasis on Bowman County’s agricultural and energy sectors, Ho-

even, headed a roundtable discussion with a diverse group of area leaders at Bowman Lodge and Convention Center, during which he overviewed key pieces of legislation and regulations of concern. “Agriculture is No. 1 for our economy,” Hoeven said during the roundtable, which saw several farmers and ranchers in attendance. To underscore the importance of agriculture in the country and particularly in North Dakota, Hoeven stressed the need for changes to the Waters of

The rule ensures waters protected under the Clean Water Act are more precisely defined, more predictably determined, and easier for businesses and industry to understand, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. In addition to farming, the rule could impose upon oil and natural gas exploration. Hoeven called the rule an invasion of private property rights. “The EPA could come in … and say

IN BRIEF
Strom Center at DSU to close While the center has done an excellent job of serving Dickinson and southwest North Dakota, it is a grant funded entity and is not accounted for in the university’s operating budget. Due to recent shortfalls in grant monies, the Strom Center will close mid-April. Dr. Mitzel spoke on this decision, saying, “Dickinson State appreciates the outstanding work of the Strom Center and its employees. DSU will continue to support small businesses in the region while focusing on serving current students and growing the student population.” Scott Hanson, interim vice president for finance and administration, has assured that the services the Strom Center provided to small business in Dickinson and southwest North Dakota will not cease.

WRHS Foundation’s second Annual ‘Adult Prom’ April 16 By TED UECKER
WRHSF Development Officer The West River Health Services Foundation will once again be hosting their second annual ‘Adult Prom’ on Saturday, April 16, at Suzie’s Woodfire Grill in Hettinger. The largest fundraiser of the year for the Foundation was a smashing success a year ago, raising $12,000 net for the MRI Campaign. This year, all funds raised will go toward the ‘One Room At a Time Together’ Campaign to renovate 42 resident rooms at Western Horizons Care Center. Currently, nearly $70,000 has been raised/ pledged toward the $145,500 goal. The goal for this Adult Prom event is to raise $20,000 net from ticket sales, silent and live auctions. Tickets for this year’s Adult Prom went on sale March 21st at KB Jewelers, the WRHS Hettinger Clinic, and at the WRHS Administrative Building’s front desk. The cost of entry is $35 per person. Couples, singles, and groups are welcome to attend. You can dress up or dress down, whatever you prefer. Last year nearly 99 percent dressed for the occasion. Our local flower creation experts and tuxedo rental place, Prairie Rose Floral, owned and operated by new owners Alyssa and Kane Melling, are more than willing to create the right
look for you. The doors open at 5:00 p.m. on April 16, when we begin the social, silent auction, and appetizers. There will be many silent auction items for you to consider bidding on, everything from dinners to massages to fishing trips, artwork, wine and more! About 7:00 p.m. we will start the ‘Grand March,’ introducing each couple, single or group; immediately followed by the bridge for all of us to go under with our dates or friends. Then dancing to ‘Hot Trax,’ the local dj’s and travelling music show of Nolan Dix and Terry Spratta -- it will be a night to remember. At approximately 8:00 p.m. we will have our ‘Live Auction,’ auctioneered for the second year in a row by local rancher Chuck Christman, who is also one of our Foundation Board of Directors. Once again, numerous amazing trips, dinners and products will be sold to the highest bidders. This year, we have a three day, two night trip for two couples to a beautiful home on Lake Sakakawea, including meals and boating; a Denver Broncos Super Bowl Champions six foot rectangular “man cave” table; a zero-turn radius mower from AgPro Equipment; a trip for two to Grand Forks, including a two night stay at the CANAD Inn, and tickets for two UND hockey games at the amazing Ralph Arena; an NDSU 5-time Cham-

they’re not managing their water right so they need to change their operation,” he said. They don’t have that authority, he added. “We’ve
got a federal government that’s just too overbearing.” A provision to defund part of the rule was passed through the Senate Appropriations Committee but a resolution passed by the Senate to completely repeal the rule was subsequently vetoed by President Barack Obama.

In addition, if there is something in particular that you would like to see in the auction (something that you would like to have and maybe pay a little more than it’s worth), please call Ted with that information as well. He’ll try to get it for you. Thank you surrounding community for supporting our fundraising efforts at the WRHS Foundation. Without your gifts and participation, we would not have the awesome medical system we currently operate in Western Dakota. It’s nice to have it close to home, isn’t it?
The legality of the rule is currently being contested in court and would not be implemented nationwide until a final ruling is issued. Hoeven said the regulation should ultimately be fully rescinded. Similar overreaching political maneuvers affecting the energy industry are frequent, according to Hoeven. Rules on hydraulic fracturing, methane, stream buffers, carbon dioxide emissions and ozone are further examples of legislators “piling on regulations,” which Hoeven said makes it more costly and harder for the country to compete on a global stage. Hoeven arrived at 1 p.m. and spent about an hour and a half speaking and answering questions at the Slope County Courthouse. Slope County Auditor Lorrie Buzalsky said about 12 people were in attendance that included the county commissioners and the Mayor of
Amidon. Members from the Little Missour Graizing Assosciation. Buzalsky said the event was interesting and informative. She said Hoeven said he mostly spoke about some of the things that were going on in Washington, D.C., and spent much of the time answering questions from the crowd about various bills in Congress. Similar to Bowman, Buzalsky said the majority of the conversation was on the Waters of the U.S. Rule, and other EPA topics. Buzalsky said the event went very well, and added that she was happy to see a North Dakota dignitary visit this part of the state. “It was nice to see a federal representative come to this part of the state,” Buzalsky said. “We don’t get many of those dignitary people in southwest North Dakota.” Adams County Record Editor Cole Benz contributed to this story.

Students compete at HOSA Spring Leadership Conference By COLE BENZ
Record Editor Five Hettinger students recently competed in the 2016 HOSA Spring Leadership Conference, with four attending the event. The students participate in a group called HOSA Future Health Professionals. The organization is similar to the Future Business Leaders of American (FBLA) organization, but focuses on exposing students to careers in the healthcare field. The organization is new to the state, former North Dakota State Advisor and Hettinger’s Chapter Advisor Christi Miller previously told the Record that North Dakota received their chapter prior to the 2013-2014 school year. As of 2014 the organization had 48 chapters, with more scheduled to begin operations. Attending this year’s conference was Chapter President Lizzy Thompson, Alec Andress, Carolyn Schultz and Alyssa Andress. Sam Reuther participated in the
competition but did not attend the conference. According to Thompson, they held themselves to high standards because of the quality of care facility in Hettinger. She said they believe they lived up to those standards by placing well in their respected events. Each one of the conference attendees from Hettinger participated in two events, and each one of them placed first in at least one. Schultz placed first in Extemporaneous Health Poster. Alyssa Andress won her Medical Terminology event. Submitting a project o Addiction Psychiatry in the Clinical Specialty, Alec Andress took first. Thompson won the Physical Therapy event and Schultz and Alyssa Andress teamed up and won second as a team in Health Career Display. Their project focused on a psychiatrist. One of their advisors, Billie Mattis, praised the students and their performances at the conference.

social events, including biomedical debates, the HOSA Bowl (a Jeopardy-like competition on healthcare), and a hypnosis demonstration. Thompson said the group was very appreciative of their advisors, Billie Mattis and Denise Andress.

DON’T MOM &
DAD DESERVE THE VERY BEST?
Of course they do! After all, they provided for us from the time we entered this world right up through high school. For some of us, through college. And for a few of us, through young adulthood! Now it is our time – and our duty – to pay it back. As our parents age and need some assistance, they deserve the very best care in the world. Sometimes, unfortunately, we are not living in the same town or lack the ability to provide the required care. So, if necessary, they can receive 5-Star care at Hettinger’s Western Horizons Care Center. And it’s within a stone’s throw of a TOP 20 in the Nation Critical Access Hospital, with a sensational staff of physicians and nurses. What a terrific option -- if that is what needs to happen. But, just like our parents, the facility itself, Western Horizons Care Center, needs some tender loving care. Some assistance you might say. Therefore, we have started the “One Room At a Time Together” Campaign, where we are trying to raise $145,500 to renovate 42 individual resident rooms at our Western Horizons Care Center. We, West River
Health Services Foundation and hospital, have already invested millions of dollars into Western Horizons, going back nine years to the $1.5 million purchase and all of the structural upgrades since. The rooms where our residents reside each night, are in dire need of repairs -- new flooring, new lighting, new paint, new furniture, and new decorations. We are renovating these rooms so our residents feel safe and comfortable, in a more home-like environment. By giving to the Foundation at West River Health Services for this “One Room At a Time Together” Campaign, you can rest assured that Mom and Dad will soon be receiving 5-Star care in a 5-Star Western Horizons Care Center. Please contact Ted at 701-567-3666 to learn more about this worthwhile endeavor. After all, there may come a day, when we’re all faced with the possibility of selecting a care center for mom and dad, our spouse, our brother or sister, our aunt or uncle – maybe even for ourselves. Let’s improve our Care Center Together – One Room At a Time. After all, Mom and Dad deserve the very best!
Consider Giving.

OPINION By LLOYD OMDAHL
Appearing on “Fox & Friends,” conservative commentator Ann Coulter proposed that literacy tests become a prerequisite for voting because it bothered her that the votes of ignorant people counted as much as hers. At the other end of the political spectrum, President Barack Obama suggested that mandatory voting would be a good idea. Everyone privy to politics knows that all laws affecting voting have an impact on election outcomes. Coulter would like to screen off Democrats; President Obama would like to add a few. Both ideas may be repulsive to North Dakota voters today but it wasn’t so in 1898 when a constitutional amendment appeared on the general election ballot. The amendment authorized the legislature to enact a literacy test for voting and establish mandatory voting. The voters approved the measure by a vote of 21,177 to 16,329. If both had been implemented, we would have smarter people going to the polls. The legislature never implemented either one. (It was quietly rumored that the Germans and Scandinavians opposed them. They were not as concerned about mandatory voting as they were about the literacy test.) Both provisions remained in the state constitution until 1978 when nine sections of elective franchise language were removed. No one protested. Even though the first literacy tests appeared in Connecticut to keep the Irish from voting, they fell into disrepute when used throughout the South to disenfranchise AfricanAmericans. In 1965 and 1970, federal civil rights legislation and Supreme Court decisions outlawed them. Observers of the 2016 presidential primaries are starting to wonder if we
aren’t in need of literacy tests or some sort of remedial education for voters because we are seeing more participation and less understanding. Voters are being bamboozled by the idea that promises of cure-alls can be carried out single-handedly by presidents, senators, congresspersons and governors. That isn’t the way the system works but our hopes are renewed every election when new Pied Pipers arrive to solve complex problems with simple solutions. North Dakota has always been in the top five states for election turnout so the idea of mandatory voting has never gained traction. However, the idea is alive and well today in 22 countries, among them Australia, Argentina, Brazil and Peru. In a Tasmanian 2010 election, 6,000 no-shows were fined $26 each but only 2,000 paid up, indicating a lack of enthusiasm for enforcing the mandate. The same has been true in other countries with mandatory voting. While Coulter was focused on literacy tests, her argument could be applied as well to mandatory voting. It would seem unfair for new armies of ignorant voters to be casting ballots equal in value to those of diligent citizens who followed issues with great care. Our “Founding Fathers” felt that only those with a stake in society should vote. That is why they favored property ownership as a requirement for voting. U. S. Supreme Court decisions relating to l-person, 1-vote suggest that the right to vote is not based on intelligence, or property ownership, or heritage, but upon being a human being. That bashed intelligence as a prerequisite. Even though we do not have literacy tests or mandatory voting, the ignorant and/or disinterested voters are the ones who do not voluntarily show up on Election Day. It’s a self-selection system. Of course, both parties still work hard on every election day with “get out the vote drives” to drag their uninformed and unmotivated adherents to the polls, thereby undoing the normal process.

That’s Life By TONY BENDER
Guest Columnist
Editor’s note: Tony Bender took the Easter weekend off. This column was written in 2001. “What do you believe?” he asked me at the church picnic, after the baked beans, hot dishes and chocolate cakes were satisfyingly lodged in my gullet, after belts had surreptitiously been loosened another notch. I thought about it for a moment, as the children romped in the park, as the grip of autumn began to win her battle with summer. “I believe in reincarnation,” I said. “I believe we are all connected, that the train to realization cannot arrive at the final destination until everyone is on board. I believe in Buddha. And Krishna. And Moses. And Jesus. And maybe the Dalai Lama, but not in Richard Gere. And I believe I’ll have a beer. “I believe what goes around, comes around. As you sow, so shall ye reap. I believe in karma. I believe in an eye for an eye. I believe in turning the other cheek. I believe in a loving God, not a smiting God. I believe in Grace. Not the baseball player, although he’s good. “I believe Moses parted the Red Sea. That Jesus turned water into wine and that he raised Lazarus. I believe DiMaggio hit in 56 straight. I believe the designated hitter is a mistake and that Pete Rose should not be in the Hall of Fame and that, instead of using Ty Cobb as a bellwether, he should be tossed out, too. “I believe thoughts are things,” I said, as the children tossed water balloons, giggling, running with the conditioning of marathon-
ers. “I believe thoughts have the power to help or harm,” I said. “I believe prayer works. “I believe there is no death, but I fear a painful one. I believe in life. I believe I have known you in another life, but that it is this life, not that one, when you were Napoleon and I was a court jester, that is important. “I believe Shirley MacLaine is right about more things than you might guess. I believe the earth is sliding on its axis, that the poles are shifting, and that you can see it in the change in the weather. But I don’t believe it means the end of the world. “I believe, even living in farm country, that I would do better not to eat meat. I believe I’ll take my steak rare. “I believe you can dissolve clouds with your mind, if you think you can. I believe in ‘67 Chevys and 327 short blocks and fourbarrel carbs and manual transmissions. I believe in the Vikings, but not in the Red Sox. “I believe we are all on a journey, aiming for the same destination, but that the paths are as varied as the stars in the nighttime sky. “I do not believe people in the rain forest must be baptized to be saved, but that it gives you clean hair. I believe in hymns set to the tune of old drinking songs. I believe Martin Luther liked a good snort. “I believe I am a hypocrite. Ill-tempered. Smallthinking. And entirely salvageable by God. “I think we make too much of church and forget to see the divine as we walk across sweet, green bluegrass to water the saplings. “I do not believe in hell or the devil, but I sometimes feel a negative energy around me so powerful it frightens me. I believe in the Loch Ness Monster and in giant squids and in Gandhian non-violent protest. I believe in orderly anarchy. “I believe what I believe
in isn’t important. It is what you believe that is. I do not believe I will be judged by others, but that I will judge myself and I fear the verdict. “I believe I could attain enlightenment in a moment, but that it will probably take more lifetimes. I believe the Lakota, the Blackfoot, Shoshone, Chickasaw and Cherokee know God. “I believe Jimmy Swaggart is insane and Falwell is a fraud, but Billy Graham is not. I believe my dog is not really lost or dead, but sitting in front of a warm hearth with a kindly family, stealing table scraps and smiling the way dogs do. And I believe Duck Dog misses me, but does not know how to get home and, anyway, is getting too old to do it. “I believe my mother is imperfect and it pains me, because I did not believe it for years, and now she is one of us. I believe Mother Teresa is a saint, but Princess Di was not. I believe Prince Charles has very big ears and should marry again if it makes him happy. I believe the English need better dental care. “I believe ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ was Elton’s best, but ‘Tumbleweed Connection’ is in the running. I believe in George Carlin and Robin Williams and Chris Rock and Dennis Miller and Eddie Izzard, but not in Drew Carey. “I believe the French should lighten up on Americans. After all, we saved their bacon in WWII. But they saved ours in 1776, so I suppose we’re even. “I believe in the prairie. In elbow room. In looking them in the eye. I believe in left hooks to the jaw and knees to the groin. And I believe in handshakes and hugs. “I believe in Jung, not Freud and not Nietzsche. I believe in Zen. In Mohammed and Saint Peter and Saint Nick. “I believe in the Easter Bunny, but not Peter Cottontail hopping down the
bunny trail. “I believe you are right RO and that I am, too. I believe Ti I’d rather fight than switch, Hirn but I won’t walk a mile for a Gary Camel. Mon “I believe in the wisdom gues of children and fear the Shirl folly of wrinkled old men. Long I believe in puppies and Ti kittens, but not in hamsters rell H or gerbils. Vern “I believe in driving fast Chur in a Mustang ragtop on a Aa deserted road on a sumMore mer day, but the McIntosh Wed County Sheriff ’s DepartTi ment does not. Hirn “I believe in hard, red Ullin spring wheat and canola met and flax. I believe our farm- Leon ers are not getting a fair Tiss shake and it will cost us all. visite “I believe the real danger befo is not big government, but Ti big business. Or both when day a they have no conscience. gues I believe our stock market Treib investments further more Ti wrongs than rights and I Osca wish my tech fund would their bounce back. and f “I believe in getting in He things done. I believe in Sa taking time off. I believe in atten sunshine and rain, but not in Bo in Democrats or RepubliTi cans. Osca “I believe there was an and t Atlantis and that our tech- WRR nology pales in comparison, Ea and I suppose there must be after life out there somewhere. Hirn “I believe in Ella and Sarah and the Count, but not the Duke. I believe in Mel Torme and Sinatra and Tony Bennett, but not in Perry Como, Andy Williams or the Ray Conniff Singers. “I believe all you need is love and the air that I breathe, that he ain’t heavy, he’s my brother, and that the answer is blowing in the wind. “I believe in reaching far and that it is forgivable to fall short. I believe in going with the flow and tilting against windmills. I believe in serenity. I believe in war, sometimes, but almost never. “What do you believe?” I asked, looking up. But he was not there. © Tony Bender, 2001
love with the parrot and decided to purchase the bird, although it cost more than an Angus pair at Stockmen’s Livestock. The owner of the pet store warned her that this might not be a wise investment. “You see,” she stated, “This parrot is twenty-five years old and has spent its entire life in bordellos in Nevada and the oil fields. It has been exposed to a lot of things and sometimes will say something it shouldn’t.” But the bird was too beautiful to ignore. And a deal was soon struck. They put a blind over the cage and the parrot was taken home to their beautiful ranch home. You know how a parrot cocks his head and starts every sentence with a “Rrraaawwwkkk”?
The hood was pulled off the cage and the parrot cocked his head and said loudly, “Rrrrawwwkkk! A new house! Nice damn digs!” Mrs. Shannon quickly hushed him and the parrot said loudly, “Rrraawwkkk! Wow, a new madam!” Their daughter-in-laws came in the door to help prepare Easter dinner and the parrot again spoke up. “Rrrraaawwwkkkkk! Alright! New girls and they are hot!” Mrs. Shannon quickly hushed the parrot and scolded it a bit. Just then, Shannon came in the door from feeding cows and the parrot quickly spoke up. “Rrraaacckkkk! Hi Shannon!” And that is my Easter lesson for today. Later, Dean
The Parrot that a brothel in Northwest North Dakota has closed. Now for you gentle readers that don’t know what a brothel is, ask your parents. But it is akin to a bordello. Anyway, this is the way I heard the story. I have this make believe friend named Shannon. Shannon is a rancher who, in the peak of the boom, worked in the oil field and was a driller on a rig in Williams County. Shannon’s wife went into the pet store in our fair city and here was this beautiful parrot. This bird of paradise was striking. It had every color of every rainbow that had ever been seen. Its tail feathers were long and bright and it loved to cock its head and greet everyone that came through the door. Shannon’s wife fell in

Hello, As most of my readers are aware, the booming Bakken oil rush has subsided greatly. You can find a motel room for under fifty dollars instead of over two hundred. You can rent a three-bedroom house for under a thousand a month. Apartments are listed for less than five hundred with utilities paid and you can make a left hand turn most of the time in Dickinson. One of the things I understand has happened is

Grand River Roundup NEWS By BETTY OLSON
I’m writing this early on Saturday because Easter Sunday is the next day, and I have to drive to Pierre on Monday for Veto Day on Tuesday. Gov. Daugaard vetoed three more bills, SB 136, SB 100, and SB 96, plus he did a ‘style and form’ veto on SB 64 and SB 65. I’ll listen to his arguments on SB 100, SB 96, and the two style and form vetoes, but I really hope we can overturn his veto of SB 136, which permits any agricultural land that has crop-rated soils within fifty feet of a lake, river, or stream to be categorized as non-cropland if the land is seeded to perennial vegetation. The land will be assessed as noncropland for the purposes of determining the agricultural income value of the land. This bill was drafted to help protect the lakes, rivers and streams from being contaminated by fertilizers, chemicals and erosion in run-off from fields that are farmed right up to the water’s edge and to try to keep the EPA’s ‘Waters of the US’ at bay. SB 136 sailed through both of the Ag committees and the Senate without a single no vote and passed the House 58 to 9, so if enough legislators keep a stiff spine, we should be able to overturn his veto so SB 136 becomes law in July. Winter came back this week. Wednesday the Black Hills got hit with a heavy snowstorm. We didn’t get any snow then, but we got a lot on Friday and the temperature dropped to 4 degrees here Saturday morning. This week started off on a happy note; the Harding County high school’s team won the KBJM-KNDC Quiz
Bowl Monday in Lemmon! The team members were Maddie and Kasey Teigen, Alex Hansen, Riley Jensen, and our grandson Trig Olson. The other South Dakota teams were Bison, Faith, Lemmon, and Timber Lake. The North Dakota teams were Grant County, Hettinger, and Mott/Regent. We heard it on the radio and I was really glad I didn’t have to answer those questions, although there were a couple the kids couldn’t answer that were easy for me just because Iím old. And speaking of old age, Clyde Jesfield called the other day to remind me that Phyllis Brixey wasnít the oldest member of the Prairie City community when she passed away last week. Clyde’s mother, Pearl Jesfield, who resides in the Hettinger nursing home, is also 100 years old and just a little older than her friend Phyllis. We lost some old friends this week. Jan Swan Wood’s father, Bill Swan, 89, a longtime Newell area rancher, passed away on Tuesday after a short illness. His funeral service was Saturday in Belle Fourche with burial on Monday at the Black
Hills National Cemetery. Longtime Bison area rancher Don McKinstry, 88, passed away Thursday at the nursing home in Lemmon. His funeral will be Monday in Bison at the Presbyterian Church. Elwyn Nichols, 96, of Reeder passed away at the Ft. Meade VA Hospital near Sturgis on Friday. His funeral will be Tuesday in Hettinger with burial with military honors at the Rose Hill Cemetery at Reeder. Peggy Davis, 92 of Belle Fourche, died last Tuesday at the Sandstone Manor in Spearfish. Peggyís funeral will be this Tuesday in Belle Fourche with burial at the Pine Slope Cemetery in Belle. Peggy ranched north of Belle Fourche and was the first woman to become a Director of the S.D. Stockgrowers. These families have our sympathy. Have you read the South Dakota History and Heritage story about Fred Borsch and his famous pet coyote Tootsie that was printed in many of the local papers? On August 6, 1949, Gov. George T. Mickelson declared Tootsie South Dakotaís Official Animal at the Days of í76. Fred Borsch
Lil Alberts head start social in the evening in Bison. Friday, Duane Harris was a supper guest of Kellers. They celebrated Chiaras 18th birthday. Saturday Kellers went to Bison for Easter egg hunt. The boys spent the rest of the day with Grandpa Duane and Grandma Dawn. Sunday Kellers attended sunrise service and breakfast after at Rosebud. They traveled to Timberlake to Perry and Stacy Kellers for Easter dinner they returned home that evening. Monday and Tuesday, Patsy Miller and Barb Lyon made trips to McLaughlin. Wednesday, Jim and Patsy Miller traveled to Lemmon.
Thursday afternoon, Patsy and Christi Miller took Zabrina and traveled as far as Aberdeen that day, Friday, they then traveled to Sioux Falls and Zabrina went to spend time with her mother. Jim and Patsy Miller, Matt and Christi Miller attended Sunrise Service at Rosebud and then Matt and Christi spent the day. MEADOW Ben and Katie Lewis of Rapid City were Monday overnight guests of Art and Marilyn Christman. SPRING BUTTE Vern, Roni and Jim Klein and Jade Schaff attended the Calvary Lutheran Easter Egg hunt at the G E Lemmon Park Saturday. They
dropped Jim and Jade off at Tyler Dean and Hope Klein’s apartment in Lemmon and they attended the free movie. Hope and Tyler gave Jim and Jade a ride home. Anthony Schaff was a Saturday overnight guest of Vern and Roni Klein and family. Vern, Roni and Jim Klein and Jade Schaff were among those who attended the Sunrise Service at Neuburg Church Sunday morning The Vern Klein family hosted their annual Easter egg hunt and Jessie Crouch won. Vern and Roni Klein and family spent Easter Sunday with Roni’s family.
and Tootsie have a link to Harding County and the Olson family I’ll share with you. Fred’s brother, Charlie Borsch homesteaded in Harding County and married Reubís aunt, Ivy Olson. Joseph Meyer, son of their daughter Leona (Borsch) Meyer was very active in Wyoming politics. Former Vice President of the United States Dick Cheney attended Natrona County High School and the University of Wyoming with Joe and the two shared a small apartment in Laramie. A lifelong conservative Republican, Joe Meyer was appointed attorney general in 1987 by Democratic Governor Mike Sullivan, serving until 1995. In 1998, Meyer was elected Secretary of State and served in that position
until 2007. The Wyoming secretary of state is also the acting lieutenant governor. In 2006, Joe Meyer was elected state Treasurer and served until his death from cancer in 2012. That’s my history lesson for today. Those of us living in the Golden Years can remember more about the past than we remember things in the present. Maurice Lewton sent me this joke that I can relate to: The car keys weren’t in my pockets. Suddenly I realized I must have left them in the car. Frantically, I headed for the parking lot. My husband has scolded me many times for leaving my keys in the ignition. He’s afraid that the car could be stolen. As I looked around the parking lot, I realized he was
right. The parking lot was empty. I immediately called the police. I gave them my location, confessed that I had left my keys in the car, and that it had been stolen. Then I made the most difficult call of all to my husband: “I left my keys in the car and it’s been stolen.” There was a moment of silence. I thought the call had been disconnected, but then I heard his voice. “Are you kidding me?” he barked, “I dropped you off!” Now it was my turn to be silent. Embarrassed, I said, “Well, come and get me.” He retorted, “I will, as soon as I convince this cop that I didn’t steal your dadblamed car!” Ah, those wonderful Golden Years!

The team members are Sara Jochim, Kelsie Schaff, Stetson Ellingson and Sierra Ellingson. The first-place finish earns this team the opportunity to participate in the Eastern National 4-H livestock judging contest held in conjunction with the North American International Livestock Exposition in Louisville, Ky., in November. The livestock judging contest consisted of nine classes of four animals each. The contestants evaluated and ranked three classes each of beef, sheep and swine. Contestants also gave oral reasons for their placing on three classes, one each of beef, sheep and swine. They also answered questions about one class. Counties could enter any number of 4-H participants in each division of the contest. The top three scores from the county team are added to make a team score. The second-place team is from Kidder County. Team members are Cierra Dockter,
Shaye Koester, Austin Schmidt and Paige Schmidt. The third-place team is from Stutsman County. Team members are LaMae Turk, McKenzy Dockter, Tanner Larson and Ashley Wolff. Teams from Adams and Stark-Billings counties placed fourth and fifth, respectively. Dockter was high individual in the senior division. In the junior division, the team from Dickey County placed first. Team members are Rose Wendel, Reed Wendel, Caleb Hauck and Calli Hauck. The second-place team is from Ransom County, with members Jamie Geyer, Sidney Anderson, Kendra Myers and Hunter Schultz. The third-place team is from Golden Valley County. Members are Kyle Sarsland, Chance Manhart, Abby Hecker and Jacob Steiner. The Adams County and Kidder county teams placed fourth and fifth, respectively. Geyer was high individual in the junior division of the contest. Awards for the contest were sponsored by the North Dakota Farm Bureau, North Dakota Stockmen’s Association and North Dakota 4-H Foundation.
The theme for the 2016 Hettinger High School Prom is ‘Depths of Forever.’ The grand march will begin at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 2. The doors will not open until 7:30 p.m. The only doors that are available to the viewing public are the small east gym doors (across the gravel). Once again, there will be a free-will donation
taken at the doors to be used to defray the cost of trees or other vegetation for beautifying the outside of the school. Forty couples have been signed up and can’t wait to attend this special event. The Methodist Church is again providing a wonderful free dinner for the prom couples. Serving will begin at 5:00 p.m. Janel Johnson will
begin couples, small groups, and class group photos at 3:00 p.m. for which the students should have registered and picked up a price package. The junior class has been working a long time to fundraise and to plan this wonderful event under the direction of LaNae Kristy, Jeri Dunn and Jason LeFebre. You will
not believe your eyes at the spectacular decorations! The hospital plans, for the second year in a row, to use the decorations for their Adult Prom on April 16 at the Woodfire. However, you will want to see the real thing firsthand! Thank you for your donations in advance, and please plan to attend.

SPORTS 2016 SPRING SPORTS PREVIEW
Taking a look at the 2016 track team By SHELDON CHRISTENSON
For The Record The potential is there for both the Hettinger-Scranton girls and boys track teams to do better in the Southwest Region. The girls finished in fourth place with 65 points, 30 points behind third place Bowman. Killdeer won the event with 135.5 points followed closely by Trinity with 130. The Night Hawks were hurt less by graduation than the top three teams. Unofficially I counted Bowman losing four tracksters who scored points last year and Killdeer losing three. Both Hettinger/Scranton and Trinity lost only one to graduation, but Trinity’s lone senior Selena Kudrna scored 27 points and helped a relay team win 10 more points. The Night Hawks lone senior was Casey Joppa who scored 10 points. I’m with Coach Kelly Pierce in that the girls have a good chance to finish in the top three. I put Trinity as the favorite since they have a roster of 23 and have

decent depth in all events with the exception of the throwing events. The Trinity boys easily won the boys division of last year’s Southwest Region Track meet and have the numbers to repeat. They did lose at least six seniors who scored points last year and also lost Cody Holt from New England. New England is fielding their own team this year. Killdeer finished a distance second place but I feel Mott-Regent will be the team to finish second to Trinity. Hettinger-Scranton boys finished in last place with 19 points but they return some promising tracksters, especially in the running events. The good news for the boys is that all of those 19 points were earned by underclassmen. Other potential positives for this year are that Isaiah Kludt finished in ninth place, one position short of placing, in both the 200 and 400. Six of the placers above him in the 200 and five in the 400 graduated. Ethan Dupper placed 11th in the Javelin and five javelin throwers above him were seniors. The only hurdler for the Night Hawks is 9th-grader Jaxon Mellmer who placed eighth in the 300 meter hurdles. Fellow 9th-grader Jacob Dix also finished in eighth place in the high jump. Seniors Brandon Pierce and Samuel Kludt also scored points for HS in the jump events. I believe the boys have the potential to finish in the top five this year. The following is Head Coach Kelly Pierce’s analysis
TRACK & FIELD
2015 State 1600M Relay awards podium. (Courtesy Photo) of this year’s teams. He is assisted by Zeta Drolc, Stephanie Howe, Lynn Brown and Ty Baumeister. Girls Team – The goals are extremely high for this year’s Night Hawks Girls Track and Field team. We return a lot of talent in many events from a team that finished 4th in the South West Region last season. The following athletes and events look to be real strengths for the team: Taylor Hestekin – finished seventh in both the 400 m and 800 m runs last year at the state meet, she has the potential to be top 3 in the state in both races once again this year. She was also the anchor for us in our state placing 3200 m and 1600 m relays. Lizzy Thompson – is a returning state placer in our 3200 m and 1600 m relays. She will be looked to as a captain and leader for this team. Tayler Burwick – is returning state placer in the 3200 m relay. She will add depth to our sprint relays and com-
pete in the open 400 and 800 as well. Last season she was able to compete despite a stress fracture in her foot. She is working hard to improve her times this season. Elizabeth Bartholmy – returns after qualifying for the state meet in the triple jump. She will once again compete for a spot at the state track meet in several events. Sprints and sprint relays will be her strengths along with the triple and long jump. Molly Holt – is a returning state placer in the 1600 m relay which placed seventh at state last year. Molly will compete in the sprints, jumps, and javelin. Molly was a top five javelin thrower in the region last year and will look to qualify for the state meet in that event. Last season the Night Hawks Girls Track and Field team finished 4th in the regional track meet. The goal for our girls’ team is to finish top three in the Southwest Regional Track Meet. We have the horses and the depth to be one of the elite teams in our region. We know that Dickinson Trinity and Killdeer will be the favorites to win the region, but with continued growth and improvement we can shoot for a top spot. We have a ton of youth but a great deal of young talent on this team. Finding team points in the throws and long distance
events will be important for the team to reach its potential. We have several athletes capable of giving us strong efforts in these areas. Hopefully we can have some of these athletes have a breakout season for us. This should be a fun year for the girls with many athletes capable of qualifying for the state track meet in May. Night Hawks Boys Team – The story of the Night Hawks boy’s track and field team is that it has good quality but not a lot of depth. We have shown a lot of improvement over the past few seasons, but getting better participation will be key in fielding competitive teams. The following athletes are looking to continue the improvement and compete for places at the Southwest Regional Track Meet. Brandon Pierce – is a returning this year and hoping to qualify for the state meet in the high jump. He is also a key runner in our sprint relays and will compete in the long jump as well. Sam Kludt – has competed in the 200 m and 400 m dashes as well as the long and triple jumps. Sam was a top 5 triple jumper in the region last year and will be shooting for a state track meet berth. Hayden Sadowsky – has competed in the 100 and 200 m dashes as well as the jave-
lin. He will be a key component on our relay teams. Isaiah Kludt – will compete in the 100, 200, and 400 m dashes as well as some relays. He is full of potential and will look to make a run at the state track meet this season in many events. Ethan Dupper – will compete in the javelin and will shoot for a state qualifying mark. Jaxon Mellmer – is a great athlete who participated in track for the first time last season. He runs a strong 400 m and 300 m hurdles. He has the ability to make some noise this season. Carlos Martinez - will compete in our distance races and has shown great potential to compete with the high school athletes. His goal is to qualify for the state track meet in the 800 m. Jacob Dix – is a good young athlete who will look to place in the high and long jump. The region on the boy’s side has many good teams, but Dickinson Trinity seems to be the cream of the crop. They always get all of their high school athletes to compete in track and field and consequently they have more depth throughout their roster than most teams. We will once again share athletes with the baseball team so finding consistent practice time is crucial to our success.

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD
Eye on southwest ND sports North Dakota Sports By SHELDON CHRISTENSON
The winter sports season flew by again and I am looking forward to the 2016-17 season. I look for
SADOWSKY FROM PAGE 1
a huge part for me. Learning from watching games, books, videos and just studying other great players and developing confidence as a player.” When he was younger he was inspired by a guy named Ray Allen and was amazed on how he shot the ball. He would watch films on him and try to shoot like him. He also added he had been inspired by local guys like Jeff Smith and Ben Laufer from Hettinger. Both were great basketball players that he looked up to. As far as advice given to him, he stated; “To keep working hard and believe in myself and the many other talks my dad and mom have given me.” One of the more comical events while playing sports was when he and Nevan Weaver were running cross country in Standing Rock and they were both out of shape. The course was through an archery range which was mostly all up hill and Sadowsky’s younger sister almost did outperformed both of them. He also mentioned the time that his basketball teammate Sam Kludt was locked in their locker room before one of their basketball games. He was in there for almost 20 minutes while the team was warming up before it was noticed that Sam wasn’t with them. When asked what he considered his biggest disap-
the wrestling team and girls basketball team to improve over this season’s teams. One may ask how can the wrestling team improve after winning their own tourney, finishing first in their region in both the dual and individual tournaments and then to top it off with a third place finish at state. But they return their entire team with the exception of Colby Steeke, and if the team continues to improve I feel they have a shot at winning state. The girls varsity basketball
team finished with an overall 6-16 record but return most of the team with some excellent young talent. Their Junior Varsity ( JV) team finished 7-11 and the C team finished with a 5-3 record. The JV record is a little deceiving since Sophomore Molly Kludt and Freshman Abbie Kludt were starters on the varsity. Plus up and coming 8th-grader Alyssa Andress was limited to playing time on the JV due to being a top substitution for the varsity.
The boys varsity basketball team will lose five seniors and four of them were starters. But they have a strong nucleus of younger players plus they return one of the best point guards in the state with Isaiah Kludt who will be a junior next year. The four new starters will have some big shoes to fill but I believe they are capable of it. Their JV team went 17-5 and the “C” team went 10-3 this past season. Trinity and Beulah finished one-two in the region but
For The Record Coach Randy Burwick’s 2016 ND State Dual Small Team did very well again this year as they finished second to Fargo’s Tech Team 2, 29-22. The Huskies had won the small team dual competition the past two years. Coach Burwick commented that he is very proud of his young wrestlers and they put in a great effort in both the dual competition and the individual tourney. The Sundawg Wrestling Club is out Kenmare and the MATPAC Red is from Bismarck. The Sundawg club is coached by Nick Timm a former Black Devil wrestler. Match #1 Champ.

Positional Analysis
pointment, he stated: “The outcome of this season simply because our team was capable of so much more. Although I still enjoyed the season and will cherish it.” After graduating from high school he would like to play college basketball, but is still undecided at the moment on where he will go. In closing he wanted to add: “I would like to thank the communities of Hettinger and Scranton for all the support throughout my athletic career. It has been a fun ride. I am proud to be a Night Hawk! I would like to add that Sadowsky and the other five seniors, Tanner Sanford, Sam Kludt, Thomas Maychrzak, Brandon Pierce and Paxton Pierce, brought a level of excitement to boys basketball that the communities of Hettinger and Scranton haven’t seen in a few years. That should help to inspire the younger players to work hard during the off season to keep improving.

graduation will also hurt them as Trinity will lose six and Beulah five. I read an interesting article in the March 26 edition of the Dickinson Press about the weight training classes Trinity offers their students. The class is offered twice a day, all year long and the classes fill up each semester.

This week, the last week of the roster breakdown of the 2015 season, I will be covering the safeties and kickers. There were 89 safeties in the NFL who played enough to be ranked by Pro Football Focus, and the Vikings basically bookended the list. Harrison Smith was ranked by PFF as the best safety in the NFL with a player grade of 92.8, despite missing all but 11 snaps during a four week stretch from week 12 through 15. Smith is entering the last year of his contract and is scheduled to make just under $5.3 million this season. However, the Vikings have a habit of extending their promising young players before their final season, so it wouldn’t surprise me to hear about a contract extension between now and the beginning of the season. Andrew Sendejo ended the season with a player grade of 52.0, placing him at number 85 out of the 89 qualified safeties. For some unknown reason, the Vikings decided to re-sign Sendejo to a four year, $16 million dollar contract this offseason. Luckily, there is no dead money if the Vikings cut him after this season. While Sendejo is a fine special teamer, he has done nothing to prove he deserves to see the field as a starter. Anthony (Ant) Harris only played 148 snaps last season, but he earned a player grade of 87.0, which would have placed him at number seven in the league had he played enough to qualify for the ranking. Harris is still under a rookie contract for two more seasons, so hopefully with enough time he can earn Zimmer’s trust and see the field more. Antone Exum is another young safety with lots of potential. Even though he only earned a player grade of 53.7, Exum was given chances to show the coaching staff what he can do on the field. Exum is pretty good against the run, but is lacking in the coverage department. Michael Griffin was brought in this offseason after spending his first nine seasons in the NFL with the Tennessee Titans. Griffin is a multiple time Pro Bowler,
but his play has declined over the past few seasons. Last season, Griffin was given a player grade of 67.0, ranking him 60th. He signed a one year contract, allowing him to compete for the starting spot across from Harrison. Blair Walsh is now a name synonymous with “wide left” after the missed field goal that would have sent the Vikings to the second round of the playoffs. Blair led the league in field goals made in 2015 and was 13th in field goal percentage. Unfortunately, Walsh seemed to get worse as the attempts got easier, as he was 29 out of 32 in extra points percentage. One thing that often gets overlooked when it comes to Walsh is his ability to boot the ball out of the back of the end zone on kickoffs. Blair is one of the best in the NFL when it comes to that, and it’s a good ability to have. Jeff Locke is one of the worst punters in the NFL, coming in dead last in terms of average length of kick. Luckily for Locke, punting is more than just kicking it deep, as consistency and accuracy are also important. Unfortunately for Locke, he is sub-par in those categories as well. On a team that relies on their running game and a strong defense, having a strong punter is essential. Hopefully the Vikings bring in competition for Locke this offseason. With the roster breakdown now complete, it’s time to turn our attention to the draft. If you have any players or positions you would like me to study, please let me know!

GAME AND FISH NEWS
The State Game and Fish Department reminds anglers that live white suckers are not legal baitfish anywhere in North Dakota, except for the Bois de Sioux and Red rivers. Fisheries division chief Greg Power says that regulation has been in place for most water bodies in the state for more than 20 years, but every spring Game and Fish still gets questions from anglers who wonder if they can use live white suckers for early ice-out northern pike fishing. “White suckers can and have caused a lot of problems when they get introduced into waters where they were not present,” Power said. “Since

■■ Live White Suckers Only Legal in Bois de Sioux, Red Rivers
we adopted that regulation in 1993, the number of new lakes with introduced white suckers is near zero.” Although anglers can use live white suckers on the Bois de Sioux and Red rivers and tributaries up to the first vehicular bridge, they are illegal elsewhere. Fathead minnows, sticklebacks and creek chubs are the only legal live baitfish outside of the Bois de Sioux and Red rivers. Dead white suckers which have been preserved by freezing, salting or otherwise treated to inactivate sexual products are legal bait. Anglers are also reminded that live baitfish or other live aquatic bait such as leeches, cannot be transported from another state into North Dakota.
Record
North Dakota’s 201618 fishing proclamation is set, with regulations effective April 1, 2016 through March 31, 2018. Anglers are reminded that new fishing licenses are required April 1. Noteworthy regulation changes include: • A free fishing weekend was added for North Dakota residents during the ice fishing season. In the coming winter, the free weekend will be held Dec. 31 – Jan. 1, 2017. • The statewide possession limit for bluegill, yellow perch and white bass was reduced from 80 to 40 each. • All drain plugs that hold back water must be removed, and all draining devices must be open on all watercraft and recreational bilges and confined spaces, during out-ofwater transport. • All water must be completely drained from bait containers, including bait buckets, upon leaving the Red River, or any other waters designated as infested with Class 1 prohibited aquatic nuisance species. • Sweet Briar Dam and Braun Lake are open to darkhouse spearfishing, and Larimore Dam and Wood Lake are closed to darkhouse spearfishing. • Markers must be in the possession of anglers and/or spearers as soon as a hole greater than 10 inches in diameter is made in the ice. • Largemouth bass and northern pike length restrictions are eliminated on Red Willow Lake and largemouth bass length restrictions removed on North and South Golden lakes. • Fishing rods must be easily visible and within a maximum distance of 150 feet of participating anglers. • One snapping turtle
may be harvested annually between July 1 and Nov. 15. Fishing licenses can be purchased using a computer or smartphone by visiting the North Dakota Game and Fish Department website, gf.nd.gov, or at license vendors that are linked to the department’s online licensing system. Since participating vendors will need to sell licenses electronically, paper license booklets are no longer available at license vendors. Not all vendors that sold licenses in the past will still sell licenses. A list of vendors participating in electronic licensing sales is available on the department’s website. Vendors on the list as of April 1 will be linked to the department’s online licensing system. Licenses may also be purchased by calling the department’s instant licensing telephone number at 800-406-6409 any time day or night. A service charge is added for licenses purchased through the instant licensing telephone number.
