said that those showing livestock at the state fair must be present for each day of the festivities. The kids participating in the Communication Arts section (Grace Wolff, and Anna Havelka) were also required to be present throughout the entirety of the state fair.

the man’s identity at a press conference Tuesday afternoon at the Bowman County Courthouse. The two suspects in custody, who were employees at the El-Vu Motel located at 409 Highway 85 South in Bowman, were named as Madison Beth West, 26, and Chase Duane Swanson, 21,

both of Bowman. The two were apprehended together in Denver on Saturday evening and are being held at a correctional facility in Colorado. Todd A. Pashano, 28, was identified as the third person that was taken into custody with West and Swanson. Police originally said

he was from Minnesota but indicated Tuesday that he carried an Arizona driver’s license. Headley stated that the three were found driving in a pickup truck belonging to the victim. A source, which requested his identity not be released, said ahead of the press con-

ference that Pashano was kidnapped by the couple. Pashano had resided in the motel room next to West and Swanson. Police could not publicly acknowledge the allegations of his kidnapping since the investigation is ongoing. The source, which identified himself as a friend of

IN BRIEF

Labor Day DUI enforcement begins across North Dakota As North Dakota law enforcement agencies announce the annual Labor Day crackdown to prevent impaired driving, they have a new ally: Miss North Dakota, Macy Christianson. After receiving her crown in June, Macy is focused on making a difference during her reign by urging North Dakotans to make the smart decision not to drink and drive. Macy has added the momentum of her platform to the North Dakota Department of Transportation’s Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign this month. Forty-eight law enforcement agencies across the state, including the North Dakota Highway Patrol, will deploy additional patrols for DUI enforcement Aug. 17 through Sept. 5. Along with the North Dakota Highway Patrol (NDHP), participating law enforcement agencies in the southwest region include the Stark County Sheriff ’s Department, Adams County Sheriff ’s Department, the Dickinson Police Department and the Killdeer Police Department. Funding for high-intensity impaired driving enforcement is provided by the North Dakota Department of Transportation in order to prevent impaired driving crashes. Learn more about the efforts to reduce roadway deaths and serious injuries at ndcodefortheroad.org or join the conversation on the Code for the Road Facebook or Twitter page. Memorials to individuals killed by impaired drivers in North Dakota can be viewed at ndcodefortheroad.org/memorial.

Reimbursement available for organic certification costs Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring said that applications are now being accepted for reimbursement of organic certification costs through the Organic Certification Cost Share Program for fiscal year 2016. Certification assures consumers that products are produced by recognized organic methods. Certification enables organic producers and processors to label and sell their products with a federal organic seal. Such products typically command a higher price in the marketplace. Applicants must provide a 2016 cost share application form, a copy of a dated certificate or letter from a certifier verifying certification between Oct. 1, 2015 and Sept. 30, 2016, an itemized statement showing payment between October 1, 2015 and Sept. 30, 2016, and a completed IRS W-9 Form for new applicants. Applications must be postmarked by November 16, 2016 but are reimbursed on a first-come, first-serve basis until funds are depleted.

When the campaign began on July 8, 2015, Greff posted a rough sketch of what was to be the next sculpture, a 70foot by 70-foot spider web. But plans have changed. A hurdle Greff was going to have to jump over was finding a piece of land for the spider web to rest. One year later, he still couldn’t find real estate. But the people advising Greff said that he had to do something. “Basically we got [some]

money raised, [but] I haven’t been able to find any land,” Greff said. “Talking to people that ran the Kickstarter campaign…you want to get something done, you can’t just leave it sit.” So he had suggested to the advisors a different sculpture, this one located where the Enchanted Highway begins, at the Enchanted Castle in Regent. Everyone thought that would be a good idea, so Greff went to work. “They want to know their money went somewhere,” Greff said. The new metal art will feature a knight and a dragon.

The knight will stand 35-feet tall while the dragon’s neck will stand nearly 45-feet tall. This sculpture will be a little different from the rest in the collection, in that it will be somewhat interactive. The knight will be suited up with a sound system, and words or phrases will be recorded for playback, as if the knight was speaking. Greff envisions the knight saying ‘welcome to the Enchanted Castle,’ or something along those lines. But the dragon will be the big show stopper, Greff wants it to actually spit flames out of its mouth. “We want to have him breathing fire and we want

to have his eyes light up,” he said. Greff said they are stretching the $20,000 as far as it can go, but he is looking into future fundraising efforts. Greff previously told The Herald that some of the sculptures can cost up to $60,000 to complete. Right now the framework for the knight is finished, and Greff is currently working on welding together the body parts. He expects to finish the knight before winter, when he can start working on the dragon. When it’s all said and done, the project is tentatively scheduled to be finished by the fall of 2017.

Last chance to give, and save By COLE BENZ

Record Editor With one more week left, RZ Motors is still accepting donations for their summerlong food drive in support of the Adams County Food Pantry. The campaign began in mid-June and will finish Wednesday, Aug. 31. It was started to support the local food pantry but also to encourage community members to buy, and give local. And to save local too. Part of the campaign, RZ Motors would discount oil changes in exchange for food items. For participat-

ing in the drive, the dealership was offering a basic gas engine, 5 qt. oil change for the discounted rate of $29.95. The regular price for a rough oil change is $44.95. The deal is still in place through the end of the drive. If you don’t need an oil change, participating customers can also receive a 10 percent discount on all other parts or service purchases. Each discount requires a donation of at least five cans of non-perishable goods. RZs is not looking for any particular type of food donation, just anything nonperishable, according to

Kourtney Kindsvater. He noted that you don’t necessarily have to go purchase an item, “grocery shop in your own pantry,” and bring some stuff down to donate to the pantry. RZ Motors previously

told the Record that they are “proud of this opportunity to benefit our local food pantry and we look forward to making it a big success.” Anyone with questions can feel free to call RZ Motors at 701-567-2474.

Backpacks with school supplies are available through Hettinger Assembly of God for those students in need of assistance. Please call the church at 701-567-4348 and leave a message with your phone number and each child’s grade to researve a backpack for your child.

Dakota Concert Series Inaction could cost future North BO Dakota retirees nearly 25 percent Annual Membership Drive

FROM

The Dakota Concert Series Association announces the artists selected for the 2016-2017 season: Wylie and The Wild West Sept. 13, 2016 New Odyssey Christmas Dec. 5, 2016 Acoustic Eidolon March 17, 2017 Frank and Vinny May 2, 2017 These concerts are all in Hettinger, but becoming a member of the Dakota Concert Series also includes being able to attend the Dickinson Area Concert Association concerts. They have six concerts that will be listed on your membership ticket. This coming season marks over 35 years that the Dakota Concert Association has been offering world class entertainment to our com-

munity. Membership to the concert association is open to the public for the following prices: $10/Student, $35/Adult, and $75/Family. Other levels of membership included are: Sustaining Members, Patrons, Benefactors, Co-Sponsors, and Special Gifts. The price for the concerts is your membership in the Dakota Concert Association. Season tickets can be purchased through board members, KB Jewelers, or at the concerts themselves. Board members to contact for membership sales are: Kathleen Brackel, Kathy Donner, Peggy Gunther, Pam Harper, Avis Howe, Gary Jahner, Gina Joyce, Dwight Knutson, Jill Sailer and Allen Wickstrom. The season kicks off on Tuesday, September 13th with Wylie and the Wild

West: Wylie and The Wild West have played thousands of gigs, delighting audiences around the world with their unique brand of good-time cowboy music. They have performed at the National Cowboy Poetry Gathering, the National Folk Festival, Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, on A Prairie Home Companion and have appeared more than 50 times at the Grand Ole Opry. Wylie is a real life cowboy born into a 4th generation ranching family in northern Montana. If you were one of the millions of viewers watching the 2013 Super Bowl commercial “God made a Farmer”, you saw Wylie and his hard working family. Wylie’s goal is always the same: “To win a crowd with good music and make them feel like they got their money’s worth.”

of their Social Security check The 463,000 North Dakota workers who are paying into Social Security today stand to lose 25 percent of their benefits if the President and Congress don’t act. That’s according to a new analysis conducted by AARP. Although the revenue shortfall faced by the Social Security system that could result in cuts is not imminent, the Social Security Trustees reported in June that the trust fund would run dry in 2034. After that time, across-the-board cuts of nearly 25 percent would take effect if no action is taken. “Doing nothing is not an option. The question is how long will our leaders wait to act,” said AARP North Dakota State Director Josh Askvig. “Federal candidates need to give voters real answers on how they will update Social Security for future generations.” Consider what a 25 percent cut to Social Security benefits would mean for future North Dakota retirees. • The average annual family income of North Dakota retirees would plunge by $4,000. For many state residents, losses would be much higher.

• The poverty rate of older North Dakotans would skyrocket 83 percent. Some 5,300 additional seniors would be pushed into poverty. • North Dakotans typically spend $5,700 a year on groceries, $3,800 a year on utilities, and $6,100 on health care. A cut of nearly 25 percent would force households to make painful choices about what to buy and what to do without – at a time when the cost of necessities like food and prescription drugs continues to rise. “This snapshot of the potential effects of inaction on future generations makes it abundantly clear that Social Security needs to be a top priority in the presidential debate,” said Askvig. “Voters deserve to know how all federal candidates’ plans will affect families, what they will cost and how they’ll get it done.” That is why AARP launched Take A Stand – a national campaign focused on pressing presidential candidates to show leadership on Social Security.

Saturday, Sept. 17, 2016 Hettinger Research Extension Center 10 a.m. MT Sheep are a good livestock enterprise for youth and families with off-the-farm jobs or existing livestock enterprises seeking diversification. New sheep operations are attractive because individuals can start small and build as they go. Plus, sheep operations do not require large startup capital for land, or expansive facilities and equipment. Within a few years, new shepherds can expand their flock rapidly and build a sustainable production system. We are hosting this clinic to provide new shepherds with educational material to help them manage their sheep flocks. The clinic also supports the efforts of the North Dakota Lamb and Wool Producers Association’s starter flock program.

Topics: ● Sheep production ● Sheep nutrition ● Animal-handling techniques

● Shepherding equipment ● Lambing barn management ● Tour of Hettinger REC sheep facilities

Lunch, sponsored by the NDLWPA, will be provided.

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD

BOWMAN

FROM PAGE 1

The source said he and another friend were involved in a group chat with Pashano for fantasy football. “We blew off the message, then about four hours later (Pashano) starts texting us again and telling us he was kidnapped at gunpoint at the El-Vu motel Friday night and to call the cops,” the source stated. He said that he had informed law enforcement of the situation and was subsequently questioned. According to the source, Pashano had activated GPS tracking on his phone to alert authorities of his location. Though police could not yet confirm that detail. “His explanation text was he was coming home from the bar and his neighbors grabbed him, held him at gunpoint and forced him in their room,” the source said. “He got blood on him and

then drove him to Denver to make it seem like he was trying to flee.” Both West and Swanson have a lengthy list of prior charges according to court documents. “It’s tough but my biggest sorrow is for the Johnson family,” West’s uncle, Darrel West, said on Tuesday. Madison West was charged in July with two felony counts that included theft of property, a Class A felony, and felon in possession of a firearm, a Class C felony. She also faces two misdemeanors for altering a firearm and simple assault. She was awaiting a preliminary hearing on the charges at the time of this incident. According to police, West had assaulted two female family members in July then fled the scene. The family members at the time suggested that West was a danger to herself and others “stemming from her violent drug induced outbursts,” according to a

court affidavit. Those alleged victims also told police that they had found a weapon on West’s bed inside her home, a .22 semi-automatic rifle that had been sawn down to 32 inches and its serial number ground off, the affidavit stated. The gun was later identified as one that had been stolen during a spree of thefts in Scranton. West had a history of criminal activity according to court records and is a convicted felon. She was on probation at the time of her July arrest in Bowman. In 2013, West was jailed for one-year, with credit for 39 days served, after she violated probation from a 2012 Burleigh County case in which she was found guilty on four criminal counts, including a Class A and Class C felony for possession of drug paraphernalia and intent to distribute. She was ordered to undergo treatment for drug abuse during her incarceration.

West was then arrested in Stark County several months following her release from jail for possession with intent to deliver marijuana and methamphetamine, as well as possession of cocaine paraphernalia. Those counts were later dismissed, according to court records. After her arrest in July, she was lodged in the Southwest Multi-County Correctional Facility in Dickinson, but was released after posting bond, which was set at $2,500 cash and an appearance bond of $2,500. West retained John Dean Bruhn of Dickinson as counsel, according to court documents. Swanson faced three felony charges related to an incident that occurred in June. Bowman Officer Ross Dannhoff reported in a court affidavit filed July 12 that a male victim had informed police of Swanson striking his face with a piece of steel rebar earlier that day while he was playing video games

at a Bowman residence. The man told police Swanson claimed he had a cache of weapons and threatened his life, according to the affidavit. He was later airlifted to a Bismarck hospital for a possible skull fracture and injuries sustained from the assault. Swanson was later arrested, which is when police discovered he was in possession of methamphetamine and related paraphernalia, the document stated. He was charged with aggravated assault, terrorizing and possession of a controlled substance, each a Class C felony. His bond was set at $1,000, with a $200 deposit with the court. He was later released and ordered to appear at the Bowman County Sheriff ’s Department to be equipped with a drug monitoring patch. As detailed in court documents, Swanson had continually violated terms of his release by testing positive for illegal drugs.

Bowman County State’s Attorney Stephanie Pretzer said on Tuesday that she had recommended to the judge presiding over the hearing, Judge Dan Greenwood, that the previous bond be increased. Instead, Greenwood released Swanson on personal recognizance. Pretzer said an attorney from the North Dakota Attorney General’s Office would serve as second chair when the homicide case appears in court. As of Tuesday, however, nothing has been released regarding official charges against the suspects only that they were named in arrest warrants from the state of North Dakota. Headley indicated that, by law, the suspects would have to be extradited and returned to the state no later than Sept. 8.

Grand River Roundup NEWS By BETTY OLSON

Summer is over and school has started. Bryce came home Monday to pack up her stuff and head down to Chadron for college. Trig and the Harding County boys have football practice every day and school starts in Harding County on Wednesday. Monday was Lanie and Matt’s first wedding anniversary. It doesn’t seem possible it could have been a whole year since this sweet couple were married in our yard! They celebrated by getting a pizza and watching a Hobbit movie. Sounds good to me. We went down to Sturgis Tuesday evening to help our granddaughter Kanon celebrate an early birthday. Her actual birthday is in September but she is flying to Hawaii to take a college class

this semester and won’t be back home until Christmas. We had a really fun day on Wednesday. Lance and Marilyn Olson, Doug and Fern Olson, and Louise Jenson came to spend the day with us. Lance is Reub and Doug’s cousin from Great Falls, Mont., and he and Marilyn are visiting relatives and old friends here in Harding County where Lance grew up. Louise brought down a couple boxes of Aunt Mary (Olson) Parks’ old pictures and we spent most of the afternoon reminiscing about days gone by and trying to identify people in the pictures. Casey joined us for lunch and seemed to get a kick out of all the old folks. We had more predator problems this week and I don’t think it was a coyote. Something has got off with four of our young Silver Lace Wyandotte hens and one of the old hens. Don’t know if it’s a fox or a coon, but all we’ve been able to catch in the live trap are a couple of our cats. The young hens have started to lay, but none of them want to be in the chicken coup, so we have to pen them every

night and try to find where they are hiding their eggs during the day. Casey went up to Hettinger Thursday to help Sage pour the footings for their new house they are building northwest of town. Nathan Stadheim and Lee Hofland were also there to help and Alaina and the girls brought them lunch. Reub and I were in Hettinger that afternoon for his appointment with Mary Eggebo, but we didn’t go up to check on the project. Merle Kopren’s memorial service was in Sturgis Friday and I don’t remember ever seeing that many people at a funeral before. There were lots of friends and relatives that came that we hadn’t seen for quite a while. It’s too bad that the only time we seem to get together is to mourn the passing of someone dear to us. It was raining when I left for the funeral and it rained all the way to Sturgis. It was still raining off and on all the way home. There was .62 hundredths in the rain gauge when I got home and I couldn’t help but think Merle was really smiling about all the moisture we

Hello, One more county fair and one more story. This weekend it was the Harding County Fair in Camp Crook. It still is one of the best fairs in the country. And unlike the state fairs, you can just let the kids roam free. Bicycles roam the streets and kids can walk in and out of the bar and charge a can of pop to their dad or mother. Nobody drives over 10 mph

and everyone watches out for everyone’s kids. They show calves that vary from 200 pounds to 1200 lbs. The sheep vary in size from 60 pounds to 160. There were two hogs. One was a giant boar. The other one was different. Rabbits, chickens, and goats. And every kid had a smile at the premium sale. Rumor has it that at the Corner Bar, on Friday night, there was a big fat cowboy with a bad back that rocked the dance floor until one in the morning. I wouldn’t dare say, but I know my back was in bad shape on Saturday morning! Don’t tell Shirley. She retired early. Each day when the fair winds down, kids jump on bikes and head for the bridge over the Little Missouri just out of town. I mean this is like a Norman Rockwell painting. A rope hanging from the bridge and kids squealing and bailing into the river. A few years ago we went fishing there. Fishing is using the term loosely. We had three rods. A “Barbie Doll” pink, a “Tigger” orange, and a wore out blue one. Between the three rods we had one hook. Since Gage was doing the casting, we soon decided that one hook was too many and removed it. It was more of a rock skipping, moss gathering, peanut butter sandwich kind of day than actually fishing. Now you have to remember that Gage was less than two, and Gracy was five. Brave little ranch kids. But after a couple hours I went off into the willows. While I was there a bear attacked me! Shirley and the kids could hear me screaming and see the willows thrashing around. Oh, it was an

epic struggle. Finally, the bear got the best of me and there was complete silence. The kids kept hollering for their Grandpa. Meantime, I had escaped from the bear and began to crawl around behind them on my belly. Now, trust me, even on my belly I still stick up a fair bit. But I did get around them. As I peeked out of the tall grass, Gracy was carrying a five foot long piece of driftwood. Gage was carrying a big rock. They were edging closer and closer to the willows where the bear had devoured their Grandpa. Suddenly I let out a roar and charged from the willows. Gracy dropped her club, and with eyes larger than her head, raced for Grandma. Gage tried to move, but was stuck between gears and could only scream. His rock proved a worthless weapon against a bear attack as he dropped it on his foot. I was rolling on the ground with laughter. Till Grandma picked up that five foot piece of driftwood and whacked that bear across the back. Note to self. Grandma is not scared of bears. Reminds me of a story Grandpa Jack used to tell. This guy came across this old mountain man sitting outside his cabin. Inside was a heck of a ruckus going on. He asked what was happening. The mountain man said a bear was in the cabin fighting his wife. And he had never seen a fight that he cared less about the outcome!

were getting. Dorothy Bowers, 86, died Saturday and her funeral will be Thursday at the Lions Civic Center with burial at the Black Hills National Cemetery that afternoon. These families have our sympathy. Lanie, Matt and baby Trace came down from Dickinson to spend the weekend at the ranch and at the Harding County fair and rodeo. The rain made the arena muddy for the Invitational Match Bronc Riding Friday evening, but a big crowd came to enjoy the competition. Ashley Thybo came to visit Lanie Saturday morning while Matt spent the day helping the guys build steel fence over east. Sunday afternoon Casey’s family went to the rodeo in Camp Crook. Matt and Lanie stayed to watch Casey win the bull dogging before they went home. The Darwin Awards are awarded because of news accounts depicting people who aren’t “the fittest” in mind and body! This Darwin Award winner was in the Arkansas Democrat Gazette: Two local men were

injured when their pickup truck left the road and struck a tree near Cotton Patch on State Highway 38 early Monday. Woodruff County deputy Dovey Snyder reported the accident shortly after midnight Monday. Thurston Poole, 33, of Des Arc, and Billy Ray Wallis, 38, of Little Rock, were returning to Des Arc after a frog-catching trip. On an overcast Sunday night, Poole’s pickup truck headlights malfunctioned. The two men concluded that the headlight fuse on the older-model truck had burned out. As a replacement fuse was not available, Wallis noticed that the .22 caliber bullets from his pistol fit perfectly into the fuse box next to the steering-wheel column. Upon inserting the bullet the headlights again began to operate properly, and the two men proceeded on eastbound toward the White River Bridge. After traveling approximately 20 miles, and just before crossing the river, the bullet apparently overheated, discharged and struck Poole in the testicles. The vehicle swerved sharply

Cigarette Tax Initiated To Bypass Obstinate Legislature Omdahl By LLOYD OMDAHL

North Dakota voters will be casting ballots in November on an initiated measure that would add $1.73 to the present cigarette tax of 44 cents. It would be the first cigarette tax hike in 23 years. After two bipartisan bills in the 2015 session failed, Rep. Jon Nelson (R-Rugby) predicted that refusal to act would result in an initiated measure “and I hope you like what they come up with.” It is highly unlikely that this initiated measure will be “liked” by the Legislature. Public opinion polls consistently have indicated a strong support in the public for raising the tax but the tobacco lobby has been so influential in the Legislature that it wouldn’t accept even token raises. In 2003, Republican Governor John Hoven included an increase in his biennial budget for a tax increase of 35 cents. When that didn’t fly, he offered to compromise at 15 cents but the Republican Legislature refused to budge. On this issue, political kinship meant nothing. (In a review of cigarette tax politics covering the 1980s and ‘90s, the Center for Tobacco Control & Education at the University of California School of

Medicine details the inner workings of the tobacco lobby in North Dakota.) It seems that North Dakota cigarette policy can be divided into three segments. In the early days, some folks eschewed smoking because it was a sin. Smoking was bundled with dancing, drinking and gambling as the forbidden evils of the day. However, most people continued to smoke. Starting in the 1950s, smoking became a health issue when the medical people became alarmed at the connection between cancer and smoking. It took decades of research and thousands of deaths before public opinion could overcome the denials of a profitable tobacco industry. North Dakota cigarette retailers have argued that a high tax would result in unfair competition across state boundaries. Meanwhile, North Dakota kept the tax at 44 cents while Minnesota raised the tax to $3; Montana to $1.70, and South Dakota to $1.53. It doesn’t take a mathematical genius to guess which state has been selling the most cigarettes to residents of neighboring states. North Dakota retailers, especially those in the Red River valley, have been making a killing on out-ofstate smokers. Another common argument from libertarian smokers has been put this way: “This is my life. I should be able to do what I want.” In many instances, this would be a legitimate argument but not with behavior that burdens taxpaying

right, exited the pavement, and struck a tree. Poole suffered only minor cuts and abrasions from the accident but will require extensive surgery to repair the damage to his testicles, which will never operate as intended. Wallis sustained a broken clavicle and was treated and released. “Thank God we weren’t on that bridge when Thurston shot his balls off, or we might be dead,” stated Wallis. “I’ve been a trooper for 10 years in this part of the world, but this is a first for me. I can’t believe that those two would admit how this accident happened,” said Snyder. Upon being notified of the wreck, Lavinia (Poole’s wife) asked how many frogs the boys had caught and did anyone get them from the truck? Though Poole and Wallis did not die as a result of their misadventure as normally required by Darwin Award Official Rules, it can be argued that Poole did in fact effectively remove himself from the gene pool. Betty Olson is a South Dakota rancher and state legislator for District 28.

nonsmokers who end up with the cost of increased insurance premiums and unfunded medical expenses passed on to the public. This leads us to the argument that raising the cigarette tax would be an unfair burden on the lower income people who can barely afford cigarettes. It is true that smoking is more prevalent in the lower socio-economic culture but it is also true that a disproportionate share of Pe these folks will depend on 22, taxpayer-funded Medicaid Coun when they run up thougrew sands of dollars during their last extended days in the o Febr hospitals. Past polling suggests that Dave the public will support the welc increase. Not only that, half Davi Pe of the new revenue generbarte ated has been earmarked fifty for veterans health programs and has the support and of veterans organizations across the state. The other half goes to community health programming. So where “sin” failed to end smoking and cancer didn’t dissuade others, the out-of-pocket costs of a higher tax will convince many smokers that it is time to quit. Research indicates that higher taxes will cut consumption, fewer people will die, and taxpayers will pay fewer hospital bills. More people will live to be happy ever after.

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. Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the

Nighthawks. Sadowsky scored 34 for HS which included five 3-pointers and Brandon Pierce added 21. I had Clayton Koch leading Harding Co. with 23 points. The Nighthawk JV team also remains undefeated as they downing Harding Co. 63-53. Harding Co. came into the game with a 2-0 record and receiving votes in the top five in South Dakota Class B ranks. The following night the Nighthawk girls downed the

Harding County girls who came in with a 1-3 record. The Hettinger/Scranton girls also jumped out to an early lead as they were head 16-1 after the first stop, and 25-15 at half. They held on in the second half although being outscored 2421 to pull off their second win of the season to go along with five losses. Casey Joppa tallied 19 and Kinsey Jahner added 11 for the Nighthawks. Both had two 3-pointers.

They do return a team of experienced players who were undefeated in junior varsity games last season. That includes 11 seniors, and a promising sophomore class. One of the returning seniors who missed last season due to a knee injury is talented Nevan Weaver. He will help on both the offensive and defensive line along as fullback as head coach Randy Burwick feels necessary.

They opened the season with an important 54-44 win over a strong Region 1 team in Wyndmere-Lidgerwood in the Bye Week Bowl at Shiloh. Coach Burwick was happy with resiliency of the team but realizes the defense needs fine tuning. But he feels with time they will continue to improve. The offense has two quarterback prospects in senior Hudson Pierce and sophomore Jaxon Mellmer. Mellmer started the opening game with Pierce at running back. They only attempted three passes as their running game, led by junior Isaiah Kludt and Pierce, did the bulk of the work. Kludt really stepped up in that game as he scored six times and ran for 368 yards while Pierce added 104 rushing yards. With the speedy Kludt, the Night Hawks are capable of scoring from any place on the field.

Burwick stated that, “We will have a few new starters that are going to have to learn to play as one unit. Skilled players will have to get better.” Some other key players are seniors Jordan Dilse, Damon Cornelius, Seth Olson, Andrew Sulzman, Seth Ehlers, Alec Andress, junior Ethan Dupper, sophomores Kyle Burwick, Jacob Dix, Mack Buckmier and Reece Williams. They have a roster of 35. Last season they went 5-1 in region play to finish in first place and were 8-3 overall. They won their first two playoff games and lost to North Prairie in the semi-finals by a 20-8 score. Burwick’s overall coaching record is 5069 and has been the with the program since 2003. His assistants are Larry Tibor, Jason LeFebre and Rob Warbis.

For The Record

The Night Hawks had a good test in their opening game as they took on the highly rated Region 1 Wyndmere-Lidgerwood in the first game of the Bye Week Bowl at Shiloh. According to the North Dakota Pigskin Review the Pigskin had the Warbirds rated No. 2 in Region 1 and the coaches poll had them No. 1. The Night Hawks took on the Warbirds in last year’s Bye Week Bowl and defeated them 34-12. The scoring started out quickly as Luke Foertsch of the Warbirds took the opening kick-off and returned it 76 yards for a touchdown. That was the beginning of a 45-minute first quarter and a total of six touchdowns. Night Hawk junior Isaiah Kludt scored the next two scores on runs of five and 63 yards. Jaxon Mellmer tallied the fourth touchdown of the quarter sandwiched between two touchdown passes by Warbird quarterback Wyatt Harles to Conner Barton and Foertsch. It was tied at 22 all after the first quarter. It slowed in the second quarter except for Kludt who scored on touchdown runs of 62 a few earn have

and 48 yards. The Warbirds kept pace as they also scored twice to end the half tied at 36-36. The defenses for both teams stiffened in the second half, although stopping Kludt was not in the cards for the Warbirds, they managed to only slow him down. Kludt scored twice in the second half on runs of 60 and 31 yards, along with Mellmer, who added a 1-yard quarterback sneak. The Warbirds were held to one touchdown in the half, giving the Night Hawks a 54-44 victory. Kludt finished with 368 rushing yards on 18 carries, while teammate Hudson Pierce added 104 rushing yards on 21 carries. Hunter Churchill led the Warbirds in rushing with 119 yards while quarterback Harles went 10 for23 and one interception in the passing game. Night Hawk sophomore Jacob Dix stopped a late Warbirds drive with an interception of a Harles pass with a little over three minutes left in the game. Next for the Night Hawks is RichardtonTaylor-Hebron (RTH) at Hettinger on Friday, Aug. 26. The Raiders also won their opening game with 25-8 victory over Linton HMB.

The opening 9-man football season kicked off last week and Region 5 did well, only New Salem AGU lost. All were non-region contests and here are the results: Night Hawks 54, Wyndmere 44 Mott-Regent 22, Hankinson 20 Grant Co. 52, StrasburgZeeland 12 Bowman Co. 60, Trenton 6 Richardton-Taylor-Hebron 25, Linton HMB 8 Beach 48, Ray 16 Shiloh 40, New Salem/ GU 20 I talked to Head Coach Randy Burwick and he realizes that the defense needs to improve, but he was hap-

py the way the Night Hawks kept coming back in the Wyndmere-Lidgerwood game and then put it away in the second half. They graduated some very good seniors from last year’s team and some younger players must step up and take their place. Nevan Weaver is back after missing last season with a knee injury. He will definitely help the line play, plus coach Burwick may use him at fullback on occasion. They face a good Richardton-Taylor-Hebron team this Friday, Aug. 26, in Hettinger. I was a little surprised when I read the ND Pigskin Preview that in the coaches poll the Night Hawks were only No. 3 in Region 5 with Mott-Regent No. 1 and New Salem-Glen Ullin No. 2. The Pigskin poll had the Night Hawks No. 2 with Mott-Regent No. 1. After watching Mott-Regent play Hankinson, I don’t believe they are very deep as a team and they rely a lot on Brady Wegh and Josh Wallace. Both alternate at the quarterback position and their

main play was a shotgun snap from the center to the quarterback who would run. The Little League World Series is currently being played. This is one of my favorite sports events I enjoy watching on TV. Big surprise this year as Japan was eliminated from a possible championship when they lost their first two games. The first one was against Canada who they have easily won in previous years. Sports schedule for the coming week is as follows: - Aug. 26, Varsity Football vs Richardton/Taylor at Hettinger - Aug. 27, Varsity Volleyball Tourney at Killdeer - Aug. 29, JH & JV vs Beach at Scranton - Aug. 30, Varsity Volleyball vs Killdeer at Scranton - Sept. 1, Cross Country at Bowman - Sept. 1, Varsity Volleyball at Grant Co. (Elgin) - Sept. 2, Varsity Football at Lemmon See you at the games!

The Minnesota Vikings traveled to Seattle to face off against the Seahawks on Thursday, Aug. 18, the second week of the preseason. The two teams battled twice last season, with Seattle winning both meetings, including a 10-9 victory in the Wildcard round of the playoffs. With revenge on their minds, the Vikings were able to come away with the victory. Even though it was a preseason game, the game was well-fought and had plenty of drama. Teddy Bridgewater, who was seen on the sidelines in full pads but wearing a hat instead of a helmet, was surprisingly inactive for the day. In a brief interview during the game, Bridgewater admitted there were no injury concerns, but was unable to say why he didn’t play. After the game, head coach Mike Zimmer met with the media but seemed agitated to be answering questions about his franchise quarterback. When he was asked if Teddy was sat because of disciplinary reasons, Zimmer said: “You think there’s disciplinary action with Teddy Bridgewater? He’s like the nicest kid in the history of life.” Playing without Teddy Bridgewater and Adrian Peterson, the Vikings’ offense was anemic. The offensive line did a good job in pass protection, as they only gave up one sack to an aggressive Seattle defense. The run blocking was suspect for the second straight week, however, as the Vikings were only able to rush for 70 yards on 26 carries

(2.7 yards per carry). The Vikings’ top two running backs, Jerick McKinnon and Matt Asiata, combined for only 17 yards on 12 carries (1.4 ypc). The Vikings fared better on defense, particularly the pass rush, as they only allowed 140 yards through the air while also corralling Seattle’s quarterbacks six times. Unfortunately, the Vikings were unable to stop the Seahawks’ rushing attack, giving up 187 yards on 31 carries (6.0 ypc). With Thomas Rawls out because of injury, the Seahawks’ top two running backs totaled 141 yards on 20 carries (7.0 ypc). The player of the game was Marcus Sherels. Marcus is a steady presence on special teams, but on Friday he had an opportunity to showcase his playmaking abilities on defense. With the game tied in the final minutes of the fourth quarter, Sherels was able to intercept a Trevone Boykin pass and return it for a touchdown. The pick-six sealed the game and prevented overtime, which was surely appreciated by every player and coach on the field. Adam Thielen was also considered here, as he led the Vikings in receptions and yards. The player who needs the most improvement was Laquon Treadwell. LT was a non-factor in the passing game, unable to catch a single pass despite being second on the team with four targets. Even though he is a rookie, he will need to show more consistency beINSIDE: HOLIDAY CAROLING IN HETTINGER

fore he is considered ready to contribute during the regular season. Hopefully Friday’s game was just an abnormality for Treadwell. The Vikings will finally play in their new stadium on Sunday, Aug. 28 as they take on the San Diego Chargers for week three of the preseason. Besides the new stadium, I will be paying attention to the Vikings’ run defense. Through two weeks of the preseason, the Vikings rank 28th in the NFL, allowing 4.7 yards per carry. That figure will have to go way down if the Vikings’ defense wants to be considered elite.

Nighthawk basketball teams both down Harding County By SHELDON CHRISTENSON For the Pioneer Harding County came to Scranton on Dec. 18 and 19 to take on the Nighthawk boys and girls’ basketball teams, and left going 0-2 for their efforts. Hettinger-Scranton’s boy’s basketball team faced the Ranchers first and pulled out a 64-62 win. The Nighthawk’s full court pressure initially gave the Ranchers trouble as they quickly fell behind 12-0. On top

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. Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the

Nighthawks. Sadowsky scored 34 for HS which included five 3-pointers and Brandon Pierce added 21. I had Clayton Koch leading Harding Co. with 23 points. The Nighthawk JV team also remains undefeated as they downing Harding Co. 63-53. Harding Co. came into the game with a 2-0 record and receiving votes in the top five in South Dakota Class B ranks. The following night the Nighthawk girls downed the

Harding County girls who came in with a 1-3 record. The Hettinger/Scranton girls also jumped out to an early lead as they were head 16-1 after the first stop, and 25-15 at half. They held on in the second half although being outscored 2421 to pull off their second win of the season to go along with five losses. Casey Joppa tallied 19 and Kinsey Jahner added 11 for the Nighthawks. Both had two 3-pointers.

People of Hettinger and surrounding area remember Paula Ja’e who visited here in July and August, 2007. Upon her return to Nigeria, she continued her work as a licensed midwife but wanted to continue her studies because she was not equipped to deal with some of the cases she encountered. She felt led especially to help women of her own Fulani tribe who are mostly Muslim and will not go to a hospital to give birth in fear they might be seen by a male. Finally, two years ago she was admitted to a Nigerian university in Jos, Nigeria. Having completed the first two years of study, she is now continuing her studies in a hospital setting. But the hospital is some distance from where she lives and is in a rather dangerous area. A few days ago, she sent the following message: I really need your assistance

Paula Ja’e but I am feeling ashamed of asking. I have completed the first phase of the studies called the preclinical in the university campus now have proceeded to the clinical session of the studies at the teaching hospital which is very very far from the town that I have to take 2 busses of commercial transport. They donʼt normally come out early and the taxi takes time to get full with passengers and its really altering my reading schedule, and the area is not

too safe to stay there because the residents always complain of thieves at night. Now killings have become rampant in Jos. Please can you help me get a small car? She has asked a car dealer for prices and he proposes one for the equivalent of about $4,500. We should be able to help her get that car. If anyone would like to contribute, please contact Ron Nelson 567-2398 (cell: 701 541 2769).
