Burwick places fifth in the nation By COLE BENZ

Record Editor

In his first opportunity in the national spotlight, Hettinger’s Kyle Burwick wrestled his way to the podium at the ASICS USAW Cadet Junior National Tournament in Fargo. Burwick placed fifth over-

all nationally in the 113 weight class. “It’s the largest wrestling tournament in the country,” Kyle’s father, and high school coach Randy Burwick said. Held each year in Fargo, the national tournament featured nearly 5,300 wrestlers from 48 states

competing in over 16,000 matches during the weeklong event. “You take the whole Fargodome,” Burwick said. “And put mats on the whole Fargodome.” Beginning on July 17, the tournament opens up

of that, their 6’4” center Mason Teigen left the game late in the first quarter with three fouls and would not return until the 2nd half. The Nighthawks built a 13-point lead at the end of the first half which was highlighted by a buzzer-beating long range 3-point shot by Haden Sadowsky, which made the score 38-25. With the return of Teigen in the second half, better shooting and rebounding, they outscored Hettinger/Scranton 37-

26 but the Ranchers fell just short by two points. They had a chance to tie the game with less than a minute to go but, Sam Kludt blocked a close in shot by Teigen which more than likely saved the game from being tied. The Ranchers got the ball back with 10 seconds left but could not get off a good shot.

What the groomers can do for your pet

By COLE BENZ

Record Editor Does Fido need a haircut? With the hiring of two new groomers, West River Veterinarian Clinic can help with your pet’s beauty needs. Paige Slater and Myranda Kugel have both been trained in animal grooming and though they are early in their careers, they have the background to keep your dog or cat looking fresh and clean. Slater has been grooming for more than a year and Kugel is coming up on her 1-year anniversary of her education and training. Services offered by the groomers include haircuts, baths, nail clipping, anal gland expression and (if desired) toe nail painting. The facility went a long period of time without a groomer, and some area residents may not know the service is back. “I don’t think a lot of people realize we have groomers back,” Kugel said. Kugel said they have serviced animals from as far as Minot. Other area custom-

DBM to have special events during the fair

The proposed street improvement project of the city’s Papka’s 1st Addition may be over before it even begins. The city council voted to move forward with the project, but North Dakota Century Code says that property owners have the right to formally protest if there is a special assessment required to pay for the work. Formal protests for this project need to be in writing and delivered to the auditor’s office by July 31. From the response Hettinger City Auditor Pat Carroll has already received, it’s looking like the project won’t happen. In order to halt a special assessment project, the protests need to account for 50 percent of the square footage of the area being assessed. The city council will add up the square footage of area being assessed, and then they will take the square footage of the protests, and if it’s over half, the project won’t happen. The multimillion dollar proposed project would install the curb and gutter, asphalt streets and fix the drainage issues in the area. Since water isn’t properly draining, the short term affect is standing water after rain or snowmelt, but the long term damage is street deterioration. The road is eroding because it isn’t draining properly. The strong protest comes from the amount of money property owners would be assessed to pay for the project. The city had a company map out three different bonds: a 10 year, 15 year and 20 year bond. Under the

Goehring activates Harvest Hotline Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring has activated the North Dakota Harvest Hotline. “Farmers who need custom combining and combiners looking for a job should call us at 701-425-8454,” Goehring said. “Your name and information will be entered into the Harvest Hotline database to be matched up with other callers.” Goehring said North Dakota Department of Agriculture employees will answer calls to the hotline weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Callers can also leave a message on evenings and weekends. The service is free of charge. A self-service Harvest Hotline map is also available again this year. The map can be found by clicking on “Harvest Hotline” at http://www.nd.gov/ndda/. Users may click on the black pinpoint icons to retrieve information about harvesters available in their area. “Both farmers and combiners are already utilizing the service,” Goehring said. First implemented in 1992, when adverse weather conditions caused a heavy demand for custom combining, the Harvest Hotline has been offered annually as a free service for farmers and combiners.

RZ Motors ‘Hoop Shoot Contest’ garners 42 gunners, plus a few slam dunks By TED UECKER

Hettinger Chamber Of Commerce The Annual RZ Motors Hoop Shoot Contest was once again held the afternoon of the 4th of July at Mirror Lake Park. The temperature was hot and so was the shooting – and dunking! The court and hoops, including the backboards and rims, were repainted red, white and blue for this yearly 4th of July Jam Session. Forty-two contestants gave it a whirl, where for one minute they could shoot from eight differently marked and valued spots on the court. They could not shoot consecutive layup shots for one point, but they could consecutively shoot from the other six spots on the court, valued from 3-5 points each. A bonus of 15 points was awarded to each shooter if they tried shots from three differently valued locations. This year a new age group for 9 and under was added, where younger contestants had the opportunity to make as many shots as they could in 60 seconds at a lower rimmed basket (about 7 feet). The highlight of the afternoon was when three year old Camdyn Freed was held up by his dad Mike and given the

terms, property owners would be charged an estimated $4,627.08 per year and per lot for the 10-year bond, $3,369.50 under a 15year bond, and $2,765.13 under a 20-year bond. A special assessment is required under city ordinances for any type of special improvement projects, which this is considered. Examples of maintenance projects are jobs such as chip sealing an asphalt street, or repairing a crack in the road. Though the deadline for a formal protest is July 31, the city council won’t officially declare the project dead until the regular council meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 10, when they add up the square footage to determine the exact percentage of the protests.

opportunity to shoot on the smaller hoop. He made seven shots in 60 seconds and received a prize as our youngest shooter! Another awesome highlight was when Branden Brekke and Andrew Oakland slam dunked their layups! You should have heard the crowd! However, the dunks did make the backboards move quite a little on their next shots, which probably didn’t help their shooting! Our overall male high point getter and 18-44 year old male winner was Andrew Oakland with 35 points! Hettinger’s Lonnie Jackson was right on his heels at 33 points, as were sharpshooting Nighthawk graduates Hayden Sadowsky at 31 and Sam Kludt at 29. Brekke notched 30, even with a moving target! There was some real talent in this division. Kindall Seamands from Wyoming was the overall high point girl and 14-17 year old division champ with 27 points. She had quite an athletic day, as she was the fastest female runner earlier in the day at the “Fun, Run & Walk.” Good day Kindall! Rebecca Burkhalter was right behind Seamands with 26 points (probably in the running race too!) In

the female 18-44 year old age group, former HHS stars Kari Butterfield Emineth and Sam Johnson tied for top honors with 25 points each. Andrew Marcotte won the 14-17 year old boys division with 32 points (quite a score for a 15 year old); Jonathon Burkhalter netted 30 points to swipe the 10-13 boys division; 11 year old Taylar Fagerberg won the 10-13 year old girls with 18 points, edging Brianna Berg with 16. In the youngest nine and under division, Gavin Parnow led the boys with 20 made shots; and Taylor Berg triumphed over the girls with 15. And in the senior division, 45 and up, Brad Burkhalter won with 26, followed by Scott Bieber at 23. A fun time was had by all! RZ Motors provided almost $400 in prizes – awesome, huge fireworks from Black Powder for each age division (boys and girls), plus Hettinger Theater Movie Passes! RZ Motors also provided ice cold water for each of the contestants. Special thank you to RZ Motors for sponsoring this event and of course, to all the shooters. Hope to see you next year!

Cuts to home medical equipment means seniors will pay more Medicare phased in the first of two cuts to home medical equipment, and supplies, such as oxygen, hospital beds, walkers, wheelchairs, etc. on Jan. 1, 2016. The second phase of cuts was taken July 1, 2016. The average cut for the providers of these items will be an average of 56 percent in urban areas, and 53 percent in rural areas such as most of North and South Dakota, according to Fact Sheet from The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Also on July 1, 2016, CMS further cut reimbursement for home medical equipment and supplies in metropolitan area’s called competitive bidding areas (CBAs). In this program, Medicare beneficiaries are limited in who they can get their equipment and diabetic testing supplies from, and often experience long delays in getting what they need, which results in them either paying for the items they need out of pocket or simply going without the home medical equipment they need.

YOUR WEEKLY WEATHER FORECAST

CMS claims these massive reimbursement cuts in home medical equipment and supplies “will reduce beneficiary out-of-pocket expenses and save the Medicare program money while ensuring beneficiary access to quality items and services.” “Unfortunately, it has had the opposite effect on Medicare beneficiaries.” says Rose Schafhauser, Executive Director for the Midwest Association for Medical Equipment Services (MAMES), a

GROOMING

FROM PAGE 1

ers have included residents from Bowman, New England, and Lemmon, S.D. The new building, which was opened to the community in late April, offers a better environment for both pets and their owners. The new space is bigger, the kennels are more accessible to the groomers, and they can offer a bigger space in the boarding area with access to the outdoors for the larger dogs, which is good for animals not accustomed to a tight space, like farm dogs. Kugel said the new facility is also more welcoming for the pet owners. Slater, who worked at the old facility for one week before moving to the new building, said she enjoys the added work space. “It was just really cramped and hot,” Slater said. For those who don’t need the complete grooming package, a ‘dog wash’ is available 24 hours a day. On the east side of the building, a door gives patrons direct access to a pet grooming station. The cost is $10 for 10 minutes of wash time. The station offers regular shampoo as well as flea and tick shampoo. It is equipped with a leash harness to keep the pets stable, and offers a dryer so your pet doesn’t have to leave soaking wet. MEET THE GROOMERS Slater, who is from Fargo, started her grooming career in Loveland, Colo. where she attended professional grooming school. ssive She also has acquired her Associate’s Degree ome in Veterinarian Technology and was schedsupuled to take her boards this past week. ficiaIt was her affinity for canines that led her enses to this work. pro“I love dogs, so it’s kind of an excuse to be uring with dogs all day,” Slater said. uality She also said she can express her creative side while working with animals, a match she has thoroughly enjoys. t on She previously worked as a groomer with says PetSmart, and when a job opened up in Hetutive tinger a relative of hers in the area called her. t AsShe applied and was hired. Slater has family quipfrom the area and frequented Hettinger often S), a growing up.

For a small charge, the groomers will paint the nails of your pets. (Photo by Cole Benz/ The Record) She plans on transitioning more towards the Veterinarian Tech position with the facility, and putting in part-time work with the grooming department after she passes her boards. Kugel said her affinity for dogs was also the main motivation behind getting into the animal grooming business. “I love dogs,” Kugel said. “I wanted to play with dogs and love on them all day. And I didn’t want to see the sick ones.” The Hettinger native got her education online before gaining some hands-on experience through an internship in Bismarck. She has nearly a year of experience between her education and her internship, and was hired by the clinic on June 20. Family was a big part of why she came back to work in the area. “My family has always been here,” Kugel said. One of her favorite parts of the job is seeing all the different personalities of the dogs she cares for. To bring your pet in for grooming, contact West River Veterinarian Clinic for an appointment. For the full grooming package prices range from $37 for small animals, to $75 for extra large breeds, though prices can vary depending on the workload the animal requires. The cost for a simple bath and dry is between $25-$30. Pet toe nail painting, a newer, trendy option for owners, is $10.

They were a tough lot, eager for adventure but filled with hope, willing to try something new that held great promise. The odds were against them, yet most persevered through the long dark winters and the sizzling heat of summers, in quest of free land promised by the Homestead Act of 1862. Under that law, a parcel of mostly160 acres of land was granted to heads of household over 21 years old who were US citizens or had declared their intention to become US citizens. To earn those acres, homesteaders had to “establish and maintain a residence and improve and cultivate the land” for a minimum of five years [H. Elaine Lindgren, Land in Her Own Name, 1996, pg 61]. Many people in the southwest corner of North Dakota and the northwest corner of South Dakota are the living legacy of these strong, capable homesteaders who built a new life on the Northern Great Plains. Land in Her Own Name, the special traveling exhibit from the State Historical Society of North Dakota (SHSND) at the Dakota Buttes Museum (DBM) this year, focuses on the women who were part of that homestead movement. That exhibit along with new local exhibits relating to homesteading will be at the Dakota Buttes Historical Society/Museum (DBHS/M) in southeast Hettinger, ND, from Aug. 5 through September 14. Re-

lated events and activities for school students and the public are scheduled during that time. In support of the Adams County Fair, two special events are planned during Fair weekend. The opening program of the Land in Her Own Name exhibit takes place on Friday, Aug. 5 at 1:00 p.m. in building two of the museum with an explanation of Homestead Laws and Process by Ginger Dangerud. Following that, Marge Yohe and Betty Svihovec will share tales of local women homesteaders. Abbey Richards will address the Modern Homesteader movement after which there will be an old-fashioned coffee time and Ceil Anne Clement, local storyteller, will focus on storytelling at the heart of human experience. That program is followed the next morning, Saturday, Aug. 6, also during Fair weekend, at 10:00 a.m. by a discussion of H. Elaine Lindgren’s book Land in Her Own Name. Books are available at KB Jewelers in Hettinger or through the Adams County Library, Hettinger. Reading of the book beforehand is recommended, but not required. Discussion will cover, but not be limited to, the following: Arriving at the Homestead; Building a Shelter; Plowing, Preparing and Seeding the Land; Water, Food and Fuel; Bartering and Trading; Home Remedies and Survival Techniques; and Gatherings, Parties and Get-togethers.

Later, on Friday, Aug. 26, a day of hands-on demonstrations of homestead life and activities will take place. From 8:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. that day, school students, teachers and the public are invited to learn more about such homestead skills as clothes washing, spinning and weaving, fermenting vegetables, churning butter, cutting and laying sod, quilting, country school life, children’s songs and games, and more. The public is welcome at any time during the day. For school appointments, please call 701-567-2771. On Sunday, September 4, a bus tour of selected homesteads in Adams County begins at 1:00 pm at the museum. Tour participants will be taken to an early stone house, a sod house, a rammed earth home, and a wooden clapboard structure, returning to the museum for a light supper following the tour. The SHSND Land in Her Own Name exhibit will be at the DBM through Sept. 14. All events are free and open to area students, schools and the public. Donations are appreciated. The Dakota Buttes Museum is open Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday afternoons from 1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. or by appointment. To set up an appointment, call any of the numbers given on the museum’s west door or leave a message at the museum (701-567-4429). The Dakota Buttes Museum is operated by the Dakota Buttes Historical Society, the official historical society of Adams County, ND.

Tiss Johnson is a local columnist, reporting on community news from around the region.

True, Columnist Emeritus Lloyd Omdahl still has a good many years on me, but let’s face it, he peaked with his brilliant evisceration of the Smoot-Hawley Act. You remember them— a precursor of the band, Crosby, Hawley, Smoot and Young. Their biggest hit was, “Almost Cut My Toenails Today”. Smoot was amazing on banjo, the Official Instrument of Inbreeding. My point here is not that I am old or that I hold a Guinness Book of World Records mark for most participles dangled in a public venue. My point is I don’t have a column. Nada. I got nothin’. Oh, I could write about politics, and trust me, I have the best words, but if I hear one more billionaire talk about how we can all share in the dream of having our servants pull us up by our jewel-encrusted bootstraps, I’m gonna retch. So forget about politics. I’ve had it up to here.

I will say it was no surprise Wikileaks in conjunction with Vladimir Putin, revealed the fix was in all along to deny Bernie Sanders the nomination. I am shocked! Democratic National Party Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, who had Hillary fitted for her tiara before the first primary, won’t speak at the convention lest she be booed off stage. She has been bounced from party leadership as well, which is almost tragic since she finally figured out her hair. Wasserman-Schultz used to run around looking like a half-electrocuted poodle. I don’t know if her recent makeover involved the blood of virgins or other spells found in the writings of Saul Alinksy, but, wow, she came out of it looking like she was ready to sue Roger Ailes. What is it with politicians and hair? Forget that Trump abomination. Too easy. That’s like batting against Grandma with the bases loaded. If I was going to take a cheap shot, though, I

would say you could do better if a raccoon jumped onto your head. Bernie Sanders always looks like he emerged from a long day of wind-tunnel testing. I keep expecting him to hop into a DeLorean with Michael J. Fox. Bernie’s hair is so bad, he would look better if Donald Trump jumped on his head. Chief Inquisitor Trey Gowdy, who has President Hillary Clinton scheduled for 48 months of hearings on everything from Benghazi to E-Mail Gate to who shot J.R., is another one. He looks like Pee Wee Herman’s uptight brother. And speaking of Hillary, she apparently has been taking fashion advice from Mao Tse Tung. What’s with the Worker’s Party smocks? Where’s Trump? If you’re going to build a Great Wall, that’s what you’d wear. It’s almost sad that I’m not going to write about politics. Because if I was, I would have to mention George W. Bush’s attempt to start a Texas Line Dance with the Obamas at a memorial service in Dallas. If you’ve

ever unsuccessfully tried to start The Wave in a stadium, you know that awkward feeling when you have to act like you were just stretching. After he realized no one else was dancing along, Dubya pretended he was stomping on snakes. Speaking of Texas, didn’t it look like the Republican Convention was being held in the Lone Star State even without six shooters? I’ve never seen so much garish lipstick, botox and cowboy hats. The women weren’t much better. Cleveland’s escort services reported that Republicans had indeed created jobs in unprecedented volume as promised. Even the Gay Bakeries got a lot of business. It was an especially exhausting four days for The Republican Black Guy, who had run from camera shot to camera shot so the GOP seemed more inclusive. His other job was to keep Rudy “Nine Eleven” Giuliani out of the Red Bull—official sponsor of the GOP—but he obviously failed miserably. Rudy was more amped up than Ric Flair before a wrestling match. He seemed lost. He kept wondering what happened to America. Maybe he needs GPS. It’s still here. It’s just hard to recognize these days. © Tony Bender, 2016 Tony Bender is the former Editor of the Adams County Record and current President of Redhead Publishing in Ashley, ND.

Guest Columnist

I make no guarantees. I just promise I will send out a weekly slurry of words to the newspapers

who faithfully publish this column—sometimes against their better judgement— as I have been for (drumroll) 25 years. Some weeks are harder than others. I am drawing such a blank this week, I think I know what it feels like to live inside Taylor Swift’s head. The echos hurt my ears. It may be age. Suddenly, it seems, I have become one of the region’s ancient columnists—the Old Man and the Sea of Ink.

wrapped in burlap bags to keep it cold. This was back before they invented ice. I can remember Uncle Bill getting a small square bale off the top of a twoton truck loaded with hay bales and weighing it, just out of curiosity. 110 pounds! And then throwing it back up on the truck by hand. Six tiers high! I can close my eyes and see, just as clearly as if they were before Slim, Fat, Kenny, and me along with myself, heading out at daylight to start hauling little squares. Knowing that if we got a thousand hauled, we could quit for the day. And go swimming in an alkali lake. I can smell Mom’s cooking when you came in from the hay field. Knowing there would be ice tea and a wonderful meal. And she would patch the holes we wore in our overalls. Or we would take Tehr Grease, and glue canvas on the fronts of your pants. I can recall the year we planted trees North of the House. A mile of the cutest little trees you ever saw. And I was running a new Versatile 400 swather. And I cut right up to that tree row and called it a day. Jerry came home from the river right at dark and saw that new swather sitting there. He couldn’t resist. He had to make a round. One mile up cutting chokecherry bushes! One-mile back cutting bull pine! I don’t know the protein value in baby trees. But I saw a look in

Shirley’s eyes I don’t want to see again. I can remember when we got our first stack frame and began stacking loose hay. We were going to town then! Put two kids in the frame with pitchforks and start bucking hay in with an “A” John Deere. And riding down on the push off after the stack was finished. And looking back with pride on a perfect stack, that didn’t lean, and would shed water

like a duck. I remember switching Howard’s water jug with a real HiLex jug and waiting for him to take a drink. I was not a very nice little boy! I can see a ten or eleven year old boy, the first time he was sent to rake a field. Two rounds this way, and one back. Two rounds this way, and one back. And knowing that someday, you would get to run the baler!

Grand River Roundup pictures that were taken in the Slim Buttes a long time ago. Betty Niemi asked Bill Vroman and me to meet them at the Buffalo Museum to see if we could identify some of the people and the locations. Tuesday morning, we met at the museum to go through the pictures with Celia and Betty. There were a lot of horses and cowboys pictured and we could tell from the buttes in the background that they were taken at the old JB ranch just north of Greg and Deb Wammen’s ranch. The Jones Brothers had a big horse ranch that was one of the earliest ranches in this area. We couldn’t identify any of the cowboys in the pictures, but some of the cowboys and kids looked like people we knew from that part of the Slim Buttes, but none of us are old enough to remember what most of those old-timers looked like. Reub, Casey and Trig have been tearing down old corrals and buildings that are falling apart over at our east ranch at Glendo. All of the stuff they’re tearing down was built by either my great grandfather, my grandfather, or my uncles a long time ago.

West River reaching out to area communities like never before By TED UECKER

WRHS Foundation West River Health Services (WRHS) has always been a leader in Hettinger and surrounding Western Dakota towns. Now the organization is doubling down, with even more community outreach than ever before! Recently, at the request of new CEO Matt Shahan, West River provided 30 cases of water and 18 bags of ice (with a quick call to our friends at Kennedy’s Fresh Foods) in huge coolers as a preventive measure for the local Little League Baseball Tournament. The temperature was over 100 degrees, the boys were playing hard, and we certainly did not need numerous 10-12 year olds coming into the Emergency Room overheated and dehydrated. Instead, we provided huge coolers with ice

Howard is survived by his wife, Rea, of 57 years, brothers Lyle and Danny, daughters Darcy (Dan) and Peggy (Cory), son Mark ( Jenne) and granddaughters Brittany (Alex), Alisha and Natalie. He is a graduate of the University of North Dakota and Gonzaga University. He proudly served in the United States Air Force for 24 years.

Swimmers, boaters beware: Blue-green algae reported in Bowman-Haley BOWMAN COUNTY â€” The North Dakota Department of Health and Agriculture, Animal Health Division, have issued a blue-green algae warning for Bowman-Haley Reservoir due to high levels of microcystin in the water. Microcystin is a cyanotoxin caused by blue-green algae. When present in water, cyanotoxins are dangerous for both people and animals. Swimming or consuming water from the dam should be curtailed until further notice. Boating should be done with caution so water is not accidentally ingested. The NDDoH was notified of the algae bloom earlier this week and confirmed the presence of the bloom and collected water samples on

Wednesday, July 20. Water tests by the NDDoH revealed microcystin levels 15 times recommended safe levels. The production of blue-green algae, also known as cyanobacteria, often happens in hot weather in bodies of water that are used by people, pets, and livestock. Exposure from ingesting affected water can cause illness in people and animals, and can result in death. There are no known antidotes for the toxins. Blue-green algae discolor the water they live in, and can cause foam, scum, or mats to appear on the surface. People and animals that swallow water containing cyanotoxins can become sick with severe diarrhea and vomiting; numb

lips, tingling fingers and toes; dizziness; or rashes, hives or skin blisters. Children are at higher risk than adults for illness because their smaller size can allow them to get a relatively larger dose of toxin. PHOTOâ€”Microcystin, reported this week at Bowman-Haley Dam, is a cyanotoxin caused by bluegreen algae. When present in water, cyanotoxins are dangerous for both people and animals. Swimming or consuming water from the dam should be curtailed until further notice. Boating should be done with caution so water is not accidentally ingested. (Photo courtesy NDDoH)

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD

CUTS

FROM PAGE 2 regional association of home medical equipment providers in the Midwest. “In urban and rural America, the home medical equipment providers have been forced to make radical changes in order to stay in business to survive these drastic cuts! Home medical equipment companies throughout the country have already shuttered their doors. The radical changes and the closures of businesses are having an impact on Medicare beneficiaries’ access to home medical equipment and supplies.” According to a membership survey conducted by

the MAMES, 100 percent of the providers who are nonparticipating providers report they are planning to not accept assignment on Medicare claims. This means that Medicare beneficiaries will have to pay for their items up front and Medicare will pay the beneficiary the miniscule reimbursement. “Charging the Medicare beneficiaries up front is the last thing our members want to do,” says Schafhauser. “But they are left with no choice. Home medical equipment providers have already cut everything they can cut in order to survive in business and this is their only option.” The home medical equipment industry is less than 1.25 percent of the Medicare spending budget and has

A C

proven to be the most cost effective form of healthcare by allowing Medicare beneficiaries to have the home medical equipment and supplies they need to remain in their homes and out of costly hospitals and long term care. Unfortunately, CMS continues to push massive Medicare cuts generated by a flawed program making it impossible for providers to continue to serve beneficiaries in the fashion our most vulnerable citizens deserve. These cuts in many cases make it impossible for many providers to even stay in business, limiting access to home medical equipment, supplies and services for Medicare beneficiaries. The only way this problem can be fixed is an Act of Congress. The providers of home

medical equipment have been strongly voicing their concerns with Medicare officials and members of Congress to show them the impact this program is having on Medicare beneficiary’s access. At this time, the only way these drastic cuts can be reversed is through Congressional action. Medicare beneficiaries and their families are urgently encouraged to contact their members of Congress and let them know that they need Congress to protect their access to home medical equipment, supplies and services in your community by stopping the drastic Medicare cuts. They should call the Congressional Switchboard at 1-866-3381015 or go to http://www. contactingthecongress.org.

SPORTS Athletes share their thoughts on the annual Shrine Bowl Note by Sheldon Christenson: I originally contacted Colbey Steeke about the Shrine football game to gather a few comments on the game for my weekly column, but Colbey got into much more than the game. I asked him to send me his thoughts and Tanner’s also. The following are the feelings and thoughts from Colbey Steeke and Tanner Sanford. Colbey wrote the article after conferring with Tanner. It was truly an honor to be selected for the Shrine All Star Game. We arrived at Mayville State University on Tuesday and had two practices and then three practices on Wednesday and Friday with only two practices on Thursday and Saturday. On Thursday, there were some Shiners Hospital patients that came out to the campus and we were fortunate to get to play games with them and see the smile on their faces. It was truly inspiring to see how they were able to forget about all of their struggles and see them smile, laugh, and just having fun. That afternoon we had a couple seminars about Shriners Hospital and then the kids showed us some of the day to day struggles they had to live with every day. As Tanner and I walked out of the seminars we were truly speechless. It was so humbling to see how fortunate we really are to live very simple lives and how fortunate we

are to have the God given abilities that we really have. Thankful and humbled are words that aren’t even close to explain the emotions we were feelings as we got to know these kids. Some of the kids are real sports fanatics and they love to watch their favorite sport and one of them told me how much he looked up to me and how cool it would be to be able to “sack the quarterback”. Truth be told I really admire him on how he has endured all the obstructions, broken down so many obstacles and hurdles and has gone through so many grueling surgeries and therapy. I

will never be as strong as that little boy is at such a young age. Tanner said, “I admire how strong those kids are and it was great to give back for a day and just bring a little happiness into their life. After all we have been given and taught through athletics and football specifically it was great to give back just a little bit.” We learned more from those kids than we could ever teach them. We learned that sometimes you’re not given the best hand but you have to learn to make the best of it and turn it in to the best hand that you possibly can. After the game we were very sore and tight. I can’t imagine that our pain isn’t even measurable to the pain those kids endure every day. After the seminars everyone walked out with a weird look on their face and everyone was really quiet because we could not fathom how those kids can make the best of everyday. With everything they have gone through and everything they will go through in the future they still manage to stay positive every day. Region 5 was well represented on the 9-man West team as we had 14 kids and 2 coaches. It was great to get to know kids from all over the West even the ones that we have competed against for four straight years while some we just played once but

got to know the kids on a personal level and everyone was very genuine and kind. As for the coaches it was strange not playing against them but playing for them. We know how they coached and they know how we played. The

friendships and memories we made this week will last a lifetime. Sunday morning we left Mayville and we headed down to Fargo and attended a banquet where I was honored to be selected as team

with three days of Greco/ Roman Style before the freestyle starts on July 20. The event culminates with the juniors (older wrestlers) on July 22. Team North Dakota brought 41 wrestlers from all around the state to the tournament. Tournament rules allow up to four wrestlers per team, per weight class. A challenge match among teammates is required if there are more than four in a given weight class. North Dakota only had three in the 113 weight class, so no challenge was required. Nationally, there were 91 other wrestlers Kyle Burwick had to compete against. He performed well, going 6-2 overall. “[He] wrestled a fantastic tournament,” Randy Burwick said. “It was pretty impressive.” Kyle took down the No. 18 ranked wrestler in the country, and lost two close matches to a couple of other nationally ranked athletes, including the No. 2 ranked wrestler in New York native Adam Busello. Kyle’s other loss was to a familiar foe. Malek Hines, a state champion from Florida, previously lost to Kyle at the Junior Duals in Tulsa, Okla. “[Kyle] knew it was going to be a good match,” Burwick said. Kyle fell to his two opponents by close margins, 8-6 to Busello, and 6-5 to Hines.

Tanner and I feel it has been a true honor to play as a Night Hawk and represent the Hettinger and Scranton communities. The values and characteristics we have learned as student athletes will carry us through out our life. We would like to thank our parents, coaches, and teammates that have stood behind us for the last six years of athletics. Without all of their support we would not be where we are today. It has been an honor. Neither Tanner nor I will continue our athletic careers at the collegiate level because we have both chosen to go down a different path in life. Tanner will be attending Bismarck State College and I will be attending Dickinson State University.

This was Kyle’s first shot at the national tournament. He was age-eligible last year but an injury kept him out of competition. It was good experience for Kyle, according to Randy, because they get to see other styles of wrestling from the different regions of the country. “That’s why you have to wrestle those eastern wrestling [teams],” Burwick said. Another benefit of the tournament? Scouts. “It’s a who’s who of college wrestling,” Burwick said of the scouts that attend the tournament. He also said that if you medal, you’ll get some attention. Overall, team North Dakota had four All-Americans. Ryan Ripplinger and

Matt Kaler from Bismarck placed in the Greco/Roman style tournament. While Kyle and Jared Franek of West Fargo were named All-Americans in the Freestyle tournament. Franek was the Cadet National Champion in the 145 weight class. Ben Peterson, a former Olympic medalist, made an appearance at the tournament and took time to share his experiences with the wrestlers and coaches. “He takes time to visit with the young kids, and he’s still really involved with USA Wrestling,” Buwick said. Peterson, a Wisconsin native, won a gold medal at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, Germany. He also won a silver medal four years later in Montreal and was a two-time NCAA champion with Iowa State. His brother, John, was also a two-time Olympic medalist in wrestling. Randy Burwick grew up watching those two early in his own wrestling career.

The 2016 Little League tournament was held July 22-21 at Hettinger with nine teams involved. Bowman defeated South Heart in the ‘IF’ game of the double-elimination tournament, and pulled out a close victory. South Heart came up from the loser’s bracket and had to defeat Bowman twice in order to win the championship. They got by Bowman in the first game but Bowman came back to win the second game. South Heart was the defending tournament champs. All games were five innings unless extra innings were required. Bowman reached the first championship game by downing Richardton, Lemmon and Scranton. South Heart took the long way as

they lost their opening game to New England and then downed Belfield, Lemmon, New England and Scranton in the loser’s bracket. Hettinger lost their opening game to New England, then defeated Killdeer and were eliminated by Richardton in their third game. Hettinger’s Little League Roster had Alex Burrer, Tanner Defoe, Cody Curtis, Sam Weiland, Conner Andress, Bowden Hasbrauch, Braden Jahner, Peyton Tuhy, Devin Greff, Gavin Dalley, Vincent Ginter, Jaron Frank, Caden Parnow and Bennett Jorgensen. Paul Jamison and Brett Christopherson were the Little League coaches. Kudos to Kurt Silbernagel as he has helped rejuvenated baseball in South Heart. I believe Belfield and South Heart combine at the Babe Ruth level and this was their second year at the Babe Ruth level. Hopefully there will be a Legion team in a few years.

Starters: Anthony Barr, Eric Kendricks, Chad Greenway Anthony Barr was selected in the first round of the 2014 NFL draft. Most Vikings fans, myself included, were surprised at the selection. Luckily for us, Barr has turned out to be a fantastic selection under the tutelage of Mike Zimmer. After the 2015 season, Barr made the Pro Bowl, which will likely be the first of many. Pro Football Focus gave Barr a player grade of 93.4 as well, which was good for second best of any LB in the league. “He has the potential to be the best linebacker to ever play the game, in

my eyes,” Adrian Peterson about Anthony Barr on NFL Network. Eric Kendricks is from the same college as Barr (UCLA) and was a second round draft pick in 2015. Even though he is on the smaller side for a LB, Kendricks makes up for it with his instincts and technique. Despite only starting 11 games in his debut season, Kendricks led the Vikings in tackles and was fifth on the team with four sacks. PFF gave him a player grade of 58.9, good for 56th (out of 97 qualifying LBs). Already an above-average LB who is stout against the run and able to impressively stack and shed blockers, Kendricks will have to improve his coverage before he is considered great. Chad Greenway is entering the final year of his career after re-signing

with the only team he’s ever known this past offseason. Already third on the Vikings’ career tackle list, Greenway (735) only needs three tackles to overtake Chris Doleman for second and 37 to surpass Carl Lee for first. Backups: Audie Cole, Kentrell Brothers, Emmanuel Lamur Audie Cole has been with the Vikings since 2012, and just signed a one-year contract to remain in Minnesota. Cole was only on the field for 38 defensive snaps last year, and there is only $40,000 in guaranteed money on his contract, so it’s entirely possible he is replaced by a younger player with more upside. Kentrell Brothers was drafted in the fifth round of the most recent draft. Mark Dulgerian of NFL Network had the following to say

about him after the draft: “Brothers was a production machine at Missouri thanks to his high football IQ & reactionary quickness. He’s a solid addition to one of the NFL’s best linebacker crews and has exciting long term upside.” Emmanuel Lamur was a priority signing by Mike Zimmer and the Vikings this past off-season. After spending his last three seasons in Cincinnati, Lamur will likely be the primary backup LB in Minnesota. On the bubble: Jake Ganus, Edmond Robinson, Brandon Watts Last season, the Vikings kept 6 linebackers on the opening day roster, and that will probably be the case again this year. Jake Ganus was an undrafted rookie out of Georgia and will likely end up on the practice squad. Edmond Robinson

started two games for the Vikings in 2015, but will likely end up as a final cut simply due to the depth at the position. Brandon Watts has managed to stick on the roster for the past two seasons, but will likely end up a casualty of the depth, just like Robinson. Next week we will be taking a look at the cornerbacks.
