COVID-19 vaccine approved for children ages 5-11 By Linda Timian Republican Writer
Early Deadline Notice
Official Newspaper of Cavalier County Published since 1889
In the past few weeks, the Food and Drug Administration granted emergency use authorization to use the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children ages 5-11 years based on the recommendation of its independent Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC). The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) then recommended that children 5 to 11 years old be vaccinated against COVID-19 with the Pfizer-BioNTech pediatric vaccine. The Center for Disease Control endorsed that recommendation. That may sound like a lot of red tape, but it is important to note that four expert groups gave their authorization or recommendation to use the Pfizer vaccine with children in this age group and for its immediate deployment. “Cavalier County Health District (CCHD) is pleased to offer the parents of 5-11 years olds the opportunity to protect their children from COVID-19,” said Public Health Nurse Steph Welsh. “Vaccines are a safe and effective way to keep your children well.” This is good news for children and their families. During the 6-week period from late June to mid-August, COVID-19 hospi-
talizations among children and adolescents increased fivefold in the U.S. due to the spread of the Delta Variant. Because there is still so much COVID-19 transmission in the U.S., it’s now the seventh leading cause of death for children ages 5–11 and even higher than that for kids ages 12–18. “Over 1.9 million cases, 8,300 hospitalizations and at least 94 deaths and have been reported in this age group as a result of
vaccinated in the CCHD office, call 256-2402 to add your child to the waiting list. Initially, this vaccine will be in limited supply, and they want to maximize the use of doses from the vials. Vaccinating children will help protect them from getting COVID-19 therefore reducing their risk of hospitalizations, deaths, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), and long-term complications, such as “long COVID,” in which symp-
COVID-19 infection,” said Welsh. “Preventing COVID illness is this age group is an important step in keeping children well, in school, and in activities.” CCHD has school-based clinics set for Munich and Langdon Elementary Schools for the week of November 15th. Watch for forms to be sent home from the schools. If you want to have your child
toms can linger for months. “Vaccination in this age group has the added benefit of preventing disease spread to family members,” said Welsh. It is rare for a vaccinated person to infect others. People are much more likely to be infected by unvaccinated individuals. If kids are exposed to COVID-19 in school, they may accidentally
expose their teachers, grandparents, or other high-risk individuals in their lives. Many people are getting booster shots because there are still high levels of transmission of COVID-19 happening across the country. Currently, North Dakota is one of the worst states for COVID-19 transmission. Kids are part of that chain of transmission. Higher vaccination rates result in less transmission, fewer people getting sick, and fewer opportunities for the virus to mutate. Similar to what was seen in adult vaccine trials, vaccination was nearly 91 percent effective in preventing COVID-19 among children aged 5-11 years. Side effects were mild and similar to those seen in adults and with other vaccines recommended for children. The most common side effect was a sore arm. COVID-19 vaccines have undergone – and will continue to undergo – the most intensive safety monitoring in U.S. history. Some vaccinations were created and made available for diseases that have far fewer deaths and hospitalizations than COVID-19. For example, Hepatitis A killed an average of 3 children per year before vaccines compared to COVID-19 that has killed an average of 66 children per year before vaccines. cont. on page 2
Burgum calls for investment in infrastructure, Giving Tree up at the Bread Pan shop for the items on the tags, Linda Timian and return them to the Bread workforce, economic development and tax relief By Republican Writer Gov. Doug Burgum delivered his State of the State address on Nov. 8 to a special session of the 67th Legislative Assembly, calling for investment of federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) dollars and the state’s excess ending fund balance into infrastructure, tax relief, workforce, economic development and other priorities to move North Dakota forward. “By investing right now, right here in North Dakota, we can diversify the economy, we can enhance government services, and we can avoid inflation, be competitive and create longterm cost savings for citizens – all without raising taxes,” Burgum said, kicking off the special legislative session in the House chamber of the Capitol. “But we must invest strategically. That means one-time expenditures that don’t grow government. It means providing long-term value, efficiency and cost savings for taxpayers. And it means ensuring a high returnon-investment and leveraging private dollars to maximize the impact of public funds.” Burgum signed an executive order Oct. 29 convening a special session of the Legislature on Nov. 8 to address legislative redistricting, statewide infrastructure and capital projects, natural gas infrastructure,
statewide workforce programs, economic development opportunities, income tax relief and road, water and deferred maintenance needs. Most of the investments are proposed from the state’s ARPA funds. North Dakota received just over $1 billion in ARPA State Fiscal Recovery funds and $113 million in ARPA Coronavirus Capital Projects funds, for a total of $1.12 billion in ARPA funds designated for distribution by the state. About $423 million of that amount already has been appropriated by the Legislature last spring for transportation infrastructure and capital projects. The state also ended the 2019-21 budget cycle with a general fund ending balance that was $412 million more than what the Legislature obligated for the current 2021-23 budget. Today, Burgum repeated his call for the Legislature to use approximately half of those excess funds, or $207 million, to provide individuals with an income tax credit of up to $500 per year, per return, for the 2021 and 2022 tax returns. “Providing tax relief now for the 2021 and 2022 calendar years – putting money back into the hands of our citizens – is real tax relief, and it’s responsive,” Burgum said. “We can

afford to do it, and we should want to do it. The hardworking taxpayers of North Dakota certainly deserve it.” Burgum noted the state’s reserves are healthy, with the rainy-day Budget Stabilization Fund at its legislatively set maximum of $749 million, a record high. The Office of Management and Budget also is projecting a nearly $600 million unobligated balance in the Strategic Investment and Improvements Fund and an unobligated general fund balance of $540 million by the end of the biennium. Burgum said the state’s financial condition “presents a golden opportunity to invest in our future and provide tax relief and future savings to our citizens.” The governor released his Accelerate ND plan on Sept. 30 with broad input from the private and public sectors, delivering a solid starting point for the ARPA investment process. Burgum today thanked legislative leaders for their collaboration through the process and also thanked the interim appropriations committees for advancing high return-on-investment opportunities, noting the strong alignment between the appropriations bills and the Accelerate ND plan.

Upside Down Under By Marvin Baker
A state of governors It’s been nearly 113 years since Howard Taft beat out Theodore Roosevelt for the presidency, and although we know he ran again in 1912, Woodrow Wilson easily won. Because Roosevelt once lived in Dakota Territory, to this day he remains one of the state’s poster boys. We’re building a Theodore Roosevelt Library, Roosevelt look-alikes roam around Medora in the summer, and just about anywhere you go in the state, you’ll find information about Roosevelt. And rightfully so. He was president from 1901-1909, becoming the president after McKinley’s assassination, and survived an assassination attempt himself. But did you know, there is a North Dakota native (Roosevelt was born in New York) who went on to run for president but lost in 2012 and 2016? New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson threw his hat in the ring as a Libertarian candidate for president but failed to get 5 percent of the vote. It’s too bad because he was one of the most successful governors the state of New Mexico has had. Johnson was born in Minot and moved with his parents to New Mexico when he was a child. His father, Earl, was a 1949 graduate of Kenmare High School and became a standout football player at Minot State University. Gary Johnson has been in North Dakota numerous times over the years and has visited Kenmare where his dad was a dish washer at the Irvin Hotel in the early days and was later a stellar athlete at Kenmare High School while also working at the local Red Owl grocery store. Ever since Johnson became governor of New Mexico in 1994, he’s had success in politics, in the state of New Mexico. Thus, he’s a lot like Rodney Dangerfield - he doesn’t get any respect, most likely because he didn’t actually become president. Did you know there were seven other governors who lived in North Dakota at one time? • Horace Austin was a Minnesota judge who had lived in Centralia (now Fargo). He was elected governor of Minnesota in 1869. • Mayor of Detroit and later gov-
ernor of Michigan, Hazen Pingree left a successful manufacturing business in Detroit to grow potatoes in Stutsman County in 1880. When Pingree was established northwest of Jamestown in 1881, it was named after Mr. Pingree. • Albert Chandler was a talented athlete from Kentucky who came to Grafton to play baseball. In 1920, he joined the Grafton team in the Red River Valley League and, when he went back to Kentucky, was elected governor there in 1931. In the 1940s he was appointed commissioner of Major League Baseball, and it was Chandler who ended the ban that allowed Jackie Robinson to sign with the Brooklyn Dodgers. • Although Arthur Langlie was born in Minnesota, his family moved to Kermit, which was a small town just to the northwest of Noonan. The family later moved to Washington after the hotel his father managed burned. In 1938, he was elected mayor of Seattle and two years later became the governor of Washington. • Arthur Crane was a school superintendent in Minto and Jamestown before becoming president of Minot Normal School in 1913, which is now Minot State University. In 1921 he became president of the University of Wyoming and in 1946 was elected Wyoming secretary of state. In 1949 the governor resigned, and because Wyoming didn’t have a lieutenant governor, Crane was appointed governor and retired after completing the term. • Ralph Herseth, who was a student at North Dakota State University in 1928 and 1929, dropped out to be a rancher in South Dakota and served four years in the Legislature. He was later elected governor in 1958 and was defeated when he ran again in 1960. Most of these people were in North Dakota or Dakota Territory for a short time, but still had that connection. And when you think of the communities - Noonan, Grafton, Pingree, Kenmare - these probably aren’t the communities you’d expect these people to come from. It doesn’t have to be politics. It could be medicine, sports, law, journalism or entrepreneurship, North Dakota has had a lot of these people live here or pass through here. If only some of them could have been retained - imagine where North Dakota would be then?

Executive Privilege: Center stage, again Former President Donald Trump’s assertion of executive privilege to deny the January 6 Select Committee access to his aides, advisers, documents and memo, brings center stage, once again, the issue of the nature, scope and authority for presidential claims to secrecy. Rarely have the stakes for the republic been this high. The committee’s investigation into the insurrection at the Capitol rightly probes the question of whether Trump incited the insurrectionists to storm the citadel of American democracy, and the extent to which he may have organized and perhaps orchestrated the riots, in conjunction with his aides and allies. The House committee needs access to his papers and documents, as well as the testimony of former aides such as Steve Bannon, who has defied a congressional subpoena because Trump told him that he would invoke executive privilege. Americans deserve the truth, it bears reminder, but the maze of legal maneuvers and obstruction may prevent ascertainment of all the relevant facts to fully explain the leadership and organization behind the attack on the Capitol. Resolution and perhaps exposure of those responsible for the assault on the Constitution and the Electoral College begins with a better public understanding of the assertion of executive privilege. The claim of executive privilege is essentially the assertion of authority to withhold information from Congress, the courts and the public, typically on grounds of the need for confidentiality between the president and his advisers. The Constitution makes no mention of the power of executive privilege, and that is where

any inquiry into the legality and legitimacy of the assertion must begin. The framers of the Constitution easily could have provided textual language for the claim of executive privilege, but they chose not to carve out a realm of secrecy for the president. They did, however, grant to Congress, through Article 1, section 5, discretionary authority to impose a veil of secrecy by providing that the legislature, not the executive, would determine what information to publish in what became the Congressional Record. If delegates to the Constitutional Convention had vested in the president authority to withhold information from the other two branches of government, they would have been granting to the executive an awesome power that was denied to the king of England. The English monarch was duty bound to furnish all information requested by Parliament. It is inconceivable that the framers would have granted the president authority that had been denied to the monarchy. The construction of an executive more powerful than the king against whom the colonists revolted, would have staggered the imagination. Advocates of executive privilege cannot cite any language in the text of the Constitution, or any argument or train of discussion in Philadelphia or the various state ratifying conventions in which any delegate asserted or expressed interest in the concept of executive privilege. Lacking any evidence of such an interest, let alone an intent to vest such a sweeping and revolutionary power in the hands of the executive, there is nothing in our constitutional architecture to support the claim of executive privilege. The assertion of executive privilege has become a principal tool in the promotion of executive secrecy and deception. Executive secrecy, it should be clear, represents a continual threat to the values and principles of the republic. Some of the nation’s darkest moments have stemmed from a presidential penchant for secrecy: the quagmire of Vietnam, the suppression of the Pentagon Papers, Watergate, the Iran-contra scandal,
and President George W. Bush’s obfuscation about the rationale for invasion of Iraq. Trump’s act of stonewalling the January 6 Select Committee and the likely burial of the truth of the actors who led and organized the insurrection would rank as one of the darkest days in the history of the nation. The pernicious effects of executive secrecy have not deterred advocates of executive privilege from asserting its central importance to the president’s performance of his constitutional responsibilities, particularly in matters of national security and foreign affairs. Yet advocates of executive privilege have been unable to document instances in which resort to executive privilege has served the interests of the nation. Nor have they been able to document any national disasters that have resulted from executive transmission of information to Congress. There are a good many reasons to doubt both the constitutionality and the utility of executive privilege. When the concept of a constitutionally based executive privilege was created by the judiciary in United States v. Nixon, in 1974, it was said to be grounded in the separation of powers. Proponents of executive privilege have also sought its justification in historical precedents. In truth, both of these efforts to establish the legality of executive privilege rest on flimsy scaffolding. We turn, next week, to these arguments and to the decision in the Nixon case, which opened a Pandora’s box and unleashed an executive power on the nation that has wreaked havoc on our constitutional system ever since.

ND Matters: Virginia warns Dems of off-year sweep By Lloyd Omdahl The defeat of incumbent Democratic Governor Terry McAuliffe in Virginia is a precursor of the 2022 election when Democrats better expect that normal off-year shift against an incumbent president. While Democrats have gloried in winning the House, Senate and Presidency, they may have thought that Democrats would continue to ride high when President Biden rewarded all of the minorities with programs they have wanted for years. Huge 2020 Turnout But it took the largest turnout of the present century for the Democrats to win the policy branches of government in 2020. This turnout will be the curse of 2022 for Democrats. After researching midterm declines, Prof. James Campbell, writing in the Journal of Politics, noted that “in midterm elections, the greater a party’s prior presidential vote margin…the greater the loss of congressional votes and seats.” This is exactly what happened in

North Dakota in 1964 and 1966. In 1964, Lyndon Johnson not only won North Dakota’s electoral votes but gave North Dakota Democrats a majority in the House and a strong minority of 23 in the Senate. Following this surge of support, in 1966 the Democrats were decimated – losing 15 senators and 50 house members. Off-year Turnout Drops In the off-year, the turnout declines around 15 percent; the presidential party loses around four senators and 30 house seats. The Virginia election tells the electorate that 2022 will be the normal offyear losses for the party in charge of the White House, meaning that Democrats will lose both houses. Political scientists have offered a variety of conjectures to explain the off-year phenomenon. Because the off-year downturn has been recorded during both Republican and Democratic presidential incumbencies, the off-year decline can be attributed the presidential candidate elected two years prior. Supporters Become No-Shows The winning presidential candidate has brought enough supporters to the polls to win but these supporters don’t show up in the off-year. This surge for the winning presidential candidate can be explained in a number of ways. First, the presidential campaigns are highly visible so more voters become interested in the election. Second, the winning candidates make bold promises, only to find that the status quo system of government doesn’t respond to change. President Biden ran into that. To win, he had to overpromise to every minority group making up his electorate. When the chips were down, he
couldn’t deliver because his coalition was too big to hang together, with “progressives” on one side and Senator Joe Manchin on the other. Voters Lose Interest While Joe eked out a partial victory, the failure of the Democratic Party to move swiftly made the administration look inept. His supporters have not been impressed to the point that they will come out in the same numbers as they did in 2020. It happens to both parties. The statistics tell us that Republican and Democratic candidates both lose in a system of government guaranteed not to work or deliver on the president’s campaign promises. At the same time, the electorate doesn’t want to hear candidates tell the truth - that it is nearly impossible to get anything done short of war or natural disaster. Get-Out-the-Vote Drive To get the turnout in 2022 that Democrats got in 2020 would require a stronger get-out-the-vote campaign than ever before. It isn’t going to happen. Democrats have a practical problem building the same coalition that they had in 2020. A big chunk of their supporters are in the lower income categories that, for a variety of reasons, do not understand their stake in the social programs of the Democrats. With the results in the Electoral College very close in 2020, Democrats have a razor-thin edge that will be easily lost in the vagaries of the 2022 election. Unless they do a command performance during the next year, they will need a minority party strategy going into 2024. Lloyd Omdahl is a former state lieutenant governor and professor at UND.

Edwin Jochim
Edwin Jochim, 97, of Sioux Falls, SD, passed away on Saturday, October 9, 2021, at Sanford USD Medical Center, Sioux Falls, SD. Edwin Jochim, the first of eight children born to Ignatius and Eva (Kohler) Jochim, was born Sept. 27, 1924, in Beulah. During the Depression era, the large family moved to the Puget Sound area of Washington and called several places in the area home before returning to North Dakota. In his teens, he moved back to the Seattle area, where he continued his high school education along with working at a part-time job. He graduated from a YMCA High School in Seattle in 1945. He then accepted a job as an apprentice electrician in the manufacture of mine sweepers. However, with end of WWII, the job ceased, and he moved back to North Dakota. He worked various jobs including a teacher in a one-room rural schoolhouse. It was during work with the state highway department that he met his wife of 65-plus years, Anna Bachel. The couple were blessed with five children: Michael, Mark, Patrick, Stephen, and Lori. A deep interest in ham radio and electronics lead him to his career passion in radio and TV repair. In his spare
time, you could find him behind a book of various genres, such as science fiction/fact, history, mysteries and how-tos. He also enjoyed tending the large vegetable garden at the family’s home just east of Langdon. Despite spending most of his life in North Dakota, his heart remained in the pristine area of Puget Sound. “My heart has always been on the islands (San Juan and Friday Harbor),” he wrote in a memoir he penned in 2011. “On the beaches with its piles of driftwood, the great rocks rising out of the water or on the sand with the smell and sound of the ocean.” Grateful for having shared his life are his wife, Anna; children: Michael (Loretta) of Pierre, SD, Mark of Grand Forks, Patrick of Rochester, Minn., Stephen of Sioux Falls, SD, and Lori (David) Stangeland of Sioux Falls, SD; his grandchildren: Bethany (Peyman Feizollah) of Okemos, MI, Joel Jochim of Sioux Falls, SD, and Gabriel LeTexier of East Grand Forks, Minn.; and siblings: Don (Norma) Jochim and Bernice Richter. He was preceded in death by his parents; a two-year-old sister, Lucille; and siblings: Clara Nesper, Raymond, Elaine Veitenheimer, and John. George Boom Funeral Home & On-Site Crematory of Sioux Falls was in charge of arrangements.

Devotions by community pastors
This devotion is submitted by Pastor Don Barsness of Salem Bible Church
“Be a Builder” My father was a pastor. He lived with a sense of God’s calling on his life that inspired him to do his job well. He was a good pastor. Along with preaching, visitation, and administration, dad was a builder. It seemed that wherever he invested years in the life of a congregation, he would actively add to the physical facilities. During his 13 years in Billings, Montana, the church purchased and remodeled a parsonage – our family enjoyed the move from a basement apartment to the house with a yard. While pastoring in Thornton, Colorado, Dad led the church in the construction of an office and classroom addition to the church sanctuary. The congregation flourished with the use of the additional space. His last major building project took place while he was pastoring in Estevan, Saskatchewan. There, he was the handson leader as the church built a brandnew facility – new site, new building, new growth. I’m proud of my father in his role as a builder. He knew a lot about putting bricks and sticks together. He understood building construction, but Dad also knew something about constructive living - that each and every follower of Jesus is called to live a constructive life. In 1 Thessalonians 5, the Apostle Paul applauds his readers for their
constructive living. Verse 11 reads, “Therefore encourage one another and build up one another – just as you are doing.” This is standard fare for the Apostle. A few years after writing this letter to the Thessalonians, Paul would urge the Christians in Rome to “pursue the things which make for peace and the building up of one another” (Romans 14:19). Even later he reminded the church in Ephesus that every person in the church had a part to share in “the growth of the [group] for the building up of itself in love” (Ephesians 4:16). Do you remember Bob the Builder of a decade ago? The British animated television series starred Bob and various neighbors and friends who tackled construction problems with positive attitudes. Was there a “Bob” or a “Can-do Crew” in the congregations that the Apostle Paul was writing too? I think so! Without knowing most of their names, we know there were Christians who encouraged one another when it mattered most. They tackled life-construction problems with faith in God and love for each other. Individuals and congregations survived trials and temptations as Jesus’ followers lived constructive lives. If you are a follower of Christ, I invite you to count yourself in. Be sensitive to the needs of others. Offer a word of encouragement. Lend a helping hand. Be a builder.

Community Not your grandmother’s quilt show
Cavalier County Republican
Monday, November 15, 2021 – Page 7
Quilts on the Red celebrates modern and traditional art & craft Quilts on the Red is coming Friday to Saturday, Nov. 19–20, to the Alerus Center in Grand Forks. North Star Quilters Guild invites the public to its biennial quilt show, which features more than 250 quilts and 30 watercolor paintings by traditional and modern artists, four special exhibits, five presentations/trunk shows, 11 quilt shops, daily basket raffles and Viewer’s Choice voting. Tickets will also be offered to enter a Dresden plate quilt raffle, with the drawing to take place late Saturday at the show. The event kicks off Thursday evening with a special artist reception featuring the Watercolor Challenge. This exhibit pairs art quilt-inspired paintings by members of the River Fork Watercolor Society with art quilts in what has become a biennial challenge. A professional painter and member of the watercolor group will be discussing several of the pairings during a brief program. Advanced registration required. The show opens to the public Friday at 9 am. Lecture and trunk shows range from traditional to modern quilting topics and practical skill-building. On Friday, November 19, Show Judge Cindy Erickson of Omaha, Nebraska, will share her love of scrap quilts and how to use collected scrap fabric to create beautiful designs during Confessions of a Scrapper at 12 noon; professional photographer and retired college professor Russ Hanson of Moorhead, Minnesota, will present techniques for taking great photographs of your work—with digital camera or phone—in Photographing Your Work at 3 pm; Cindy Erickson will return for Mad about Minis, a trunk
show of miniature quilts, at 6:30 pm. On Saturday, November 20, fiber artist and modern quilter Kim Baird of Moorhead, Minnesota, will present explain how fibers are turned into fabric and the basic properties of cotton, wool, linen, silk and synthetics as A Quick Tour of Fabrics at 11 am. Kim Baird will look at the exciting modern developments in quilting and fiber arts and their historic predecessors in What Goes Around Comes Around at 2 pm. Several vendors from around the region will be providing demonstrations of quilting and sewing techniques. Topics include Piecing with Wool, Making Gnomes, trimming triangles, fabric and quilt care, and half log cabins. In addition, visitors are invited to try out new sewing and long-arm quilting machines. Three special exhibits will be displayed throughout the two-day quilt show. The watercolor challenge with River Fork Watercolor Society returns with a new twist and 60 original works of art. Local quilters and watercolor artists have created a quilt or a painting featuring a Grand Forks or East Grand Forks landmark. With a different theme each year, these watercolor-quilt pairings have created much interest in the past two quilt shows, and are being featured for a third time. The second special exhibit, Salute to Essential Workers Challenge, honors professions or persons who have made a difference in our region or in our world during the pandemic. The Guild opened this exhibit to entries from the broader community. For the last special exhibit, ``A Periodic Table of Pandemic Beverages, Guild members “reinvented” the pe-
Make the Great American Smokeout your quit date All smokers, including those who use electronic nicotine delivery systems or vaping devices, are encouraged to make the Great American Smokeout on Thursday, November 18 their quit date. Quitting tobacco is the single most important thing you can do to improve your health. Smoking or vaping increases the user’s chances of contracting respiratory diseases like COVID-19 and Influenza (flu), as well as developing many other smoking-related illnesses and can even lead to death. A thousand North Dakotans die every year from tobacco use. According to the most recent Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data, North Dakota’s smoking rate, at 17.4%, is higher than the current national average of 15.5%. North Dakotans are invited to join thousands of others across the country who are planning to quit as a part of the American Cancer Society’s annual Great American Smokeout. NDQuits and local public health units provide a wealth of resources to help tobacco and nicotine users quit. Cavalier County Health District recognizes the most effective way to quit smoking is to make a quit plan.
Our office assists those wanting to quit tobacco and nicotine by providing educational materials and tobacco cessation resources. In addition, the statewide tobacco cessation program, NDQuits, offers free support and coaching. A quit plan may include setting a quit date, listing reasons to quit, identifying smoking triggers, and building a strong support system. “Quitting starts with taking it one day at a time,” said Courtney Howatt. “Let the Great American Smokeout be day one and let professionals at Cavalier County Health District help you with your quit journey.” Tobacco users can get help enrolling in NDQuits with assistance from Cavalier County Health District or by calling 1-800-QUIT-NOW (1-800-784-8669). TDD users can call toll-free at 1-800-842-4681. Enrollment in NDQuits is also possible online at www.ndquits.health. nd.gov. Cavalier County Memorial Hospital also offers individualized assistance for tobacco users wanting to quit through appointments with certified Tobacco Treatment Specialists who can be reached at (701-256-6120).
North Dakota State Park annual permit holders will find a new option available to them this year. During the 67th Legislative Assembly, a bill was passed to allow members of the same household to buy two annual permits at a discounted price. This new option, the family permit, is now available for $55. The 2022 annual permits went on sale November 1 and feature Lake Metigoshe State Park, as the park celebrates its 85th anniversary in 2022. Lake Metigoshe State Park is located near Bottineau and is home to a variety of historical and natural features. One of those includes the state’s first nationally recognized trail, the Old Oak Trail. The North Dakota Parks and Recreation Department’s 2022 annual permit offers visitors access to all 13 state parks from the time of purchase through April 30, 2023. Permits can be purchased online at travel.parkrecnd.com. The single
vehicle annual permit price remains unchanged at $35. Discounted annual permits are also available for North Dakota seniors, eligible disabled veterans and prisoners of war. Permits can be purchased in person or online. https://www.parkrec. nd.gov/stay/dailyannual-permits for more information. Additionally, the department would like visitors to know they have moved their headquarters from the Century Avenue location in Bismarck to the Capitol grounds. The new office is located on the second floor of the Liberty Memorial Building at 604 E Boulevard Ave in Bismarck. Although the physical address has changed, all other contact information for the agency remains the same. The mission of the North Dakota Parks and Recreation Department is to offer a diversity of recreation opportunities and sustainably manage resources.

riodic table by replacing the actual element with their favorite beverages. This concept was well received, and the quilt guild members have had lots of fun creating it. The main exhibit will comprise more than 210 quilts hanging in the ballroom at the Alerus Center. Entries are coming from across North Dakota and Minnesota, with a few from the East Coast and southwest United States. Most of the quilts are entered in one of the judged categories: Miniature Quilts, Traditionally Pieced Quilts, Modern Quilts, Home Decor and Wearables, Holiday Themed, First-Time Entrant, Junior, and Art Quilts, along with several more.

Brush with the Bunch
On last Tuesday, the Brush Bunch was treated to a day of painting instructions by Amy Jo Paukert of Frost Fire fame. Amy and her husband, Dave, direct the plays at Frost Fire and have done so for many years. There are a few reasons why I chose this picture to accompany this article. One of them is not because I am at the far left, it is just a good time to have you meet one of our newest members, Thea Thompson and an older member, Mary Ellen Kirking , both from Cavalier. Thea is our Artist of the Month and has a very beautiful display. The main reason for this picture is the fact that you can get a preview of the trees we were painting in the lower right-hand corner. One was a deciduous tree and the other, an evergreen. Nine members of the Brush Bunch took the class; I especially enjoyed this as I have a very difficult time painting trees. Thanks, Amy - we may have to do this another time. An apple crisp dessert was served by Kevin “Cocoa“ Beauchamp. Our Gallery and windows are being prepared for the Christmas season and our Christmas dinner. The Gallery will be open on most days during the shopping season: Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 10 until 3 p.m. and perhaps a couple of Saturdays when we get closer to Christmas. You will be amazed at the large collections of gifts you will find here - check us out. The weather sounds as if we will have a white Christmas and maybe a white Thanksgiving. God Bless, and enjoy both holidays. by Leo Beauchamp

NDSCS Volleyball wins Northwest Plains District Championship and heads to NJCAA DII National Tournament Coming off of their Region XIII Championship win over Miles a week prior the NDSCS Wildcats hosted the Region IX Champions, Central Community College (NE), on Friday and Saturday November 5th and 6th in the Northwest Plains District Championship. The winner from the best of 3 match series would advance to the 2021 NJCAA DII Volleyball National Tournament on November 18-20. After the Cats took Friday night’s match 3-0 and the Raiders took the Saturday morning match 3-0 both teams prepared for their third match in less than 24 hours. Entering their fifth straight hour of competition and an amazing Wildcat comeback from down 0-2 sets, the Cats win 3 straight sets to claim the Northwest Plains District championship Title and a trip to the 2021 NJCAA DII Volleyball Championship for the fourth time in program history. Friday night’s Wildcat kill leaders were Stella Raser (Perham, Minn.), Maddie McKinnon (West Fargo), Jalen Ennen (Moorhead, Minn.), and Bailee Brommenschenkel (Ada, Minn.), with 10, 8, 6, and 6 kills respectively. Your Wildcat dig leaders were Katie Krieger (Pennock, Minn.) with 30, and Ennen
with 11. Morgan Vosberg (Sartell, Minn.) had 31 assists. Kill leaders for match 2 were Ennen, Calyn Crockett (Langdon), and Brommenschenkel with 6,5, and 4 each. Saturday morning’s dig leaders were K. Krieger, Abigail Mitteness (Benson, Minn.), Ennen, and Lauren Krieger (Kerkhoven, Minn.) with 21, 8, 7, and 7. Vosberg had another 25 assists. The final match, going all five sets, saw kill leaders Ennen, Brommenschenkel, Crockett, and McKinnon score 18, 12, 11, and 7 kills respectively. Your Wildcat dig leaders were K. Krieger with 27, Mitteness with 14, and Vosberg with 17. Vosberg also had 49 assists in this match. Head Coach Jane Passa was named District Coach-of-the-Year. Morgan Vosberg has over 1,000 assists (1,092) and Katie Krieger moves up to the #4 all-time dig leader in Wildcat volleyball history with 1,192 digs. The Wildcats advance to 23-10 overall, and we await the announcement of the National Tournament bracket by the NJCAA on Thursday, November 11 Re-printed from NDSCS Athletics webpage with their permission.

Jake’s take on sports
By Jake Kulland
Lady Cards in Region 4 Title match, looking for seventh straight trip to the State B You will know what happened when you read this, but the Langdon-Edmore-Munich Cardinals volleyball team was in the Region 4 Tournament Championship in Devils Lake on Nov. 11. For the eighth straight year, they were facing North Star for the region title, and another trip to a State Class B Volleyball Tournament. If they won, it would be their seventh straight trip to a state tourney, and would be their 22nd overall, which would extend their State B record. Now to do all this, the Lady Cards would have overcome a very talented North Star team, led by perennial All-Stater Danielle Hagler. No matter what happens, it's been another great run for the Cardinals girls, and all of Cavalier County is extremely proud of their efforts. Cardinals football has nine players make the Northeast Region Team; Tornadoes make Dakota Bowl for third year in a row As we wind down the fall sports season, postseason awards for the fall are beginning to be handed out. For high school football, the All-Region team for the Northeast has been released. Langdon-Edmore-Munich, coming off a great 9-2 season, showed just how good a team they had this year, as they got nine players on the All-Region squad. Making the first team are juniors Carter Tetrault, Jack Romfo, Markus Kingzett and Gage Goodman, plus sophomore Mason Romfo. Getting honorable mention

wrestling have already begun practice, and now it's time for Girls Basketball to begin. Nov. 15 is the first practice for the girls, with the boys to start two weeks later. The LangdonEdmore-Munich Cardinals will once again be coached by Rob Scherr, and assisted by Morgan Titus. The Lady Cards hoops team is looking to make another run at a state tournament appearance, which would be their fifth in a row. The Cardinals return an excellent group of talented players this year, led by All-Region and All District senior Morgan Freije, and AllDistrict sophomore Jaya Henderson. With the injury to center Cora Badding in the volleyball season, look for the Cards to move to a much more uptempo style, which should be fun to watch. Langdon-Edmore-Munich is ranked 11th in the state in the Miss Hoopster basketball preview, with Central Cass ranked first. The Lady Cards will open their season at home versus North Border on Dec. 3. The Eagles are once again coached by Patrick Dunnigan and Lee Beattie. The Eagles are picked to finish sixth in Region 2. "See ya!" next week!

were senior Tucker Welsh, junior Alex Gellner, and sophomores Rayce Worley and Cole Welsh. It's great to see that so many players made All-Region, as that's nine out of 11 starters (!). And the other thing that stands out is Tucker Welsh is the only Cardinals senior on the All-Region team, which means that the Cards will be loaded with eight All-Region players for next year. That should bode for a very good season coming up in 2022. So hopefully, while the Cardinals Dakota Bowl streak ended at four this year, they can begin another tradition next season. On the Dakota Bowl front, Cavalier has made to the Class B 9 Man Championship Game for the third straight year. The Tornadoes won a very thrilling overtime game at New Salem to make to the show once again. Cavalier has lost both times they have made to the Fargodome in 2019-20, but they hope the third time is the charm.

Retroactive update to Federal pandemic unemployment program may make more people eligible to receive assistance The U.S. Department of Labor has issued a retroactive update to the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) program to add additional reasons for eligibility to receive PUA assistance. As a result of this change, Job Service North Dakota is providing claimants an opportunity to self-certify under the updated list of 15 COVID-19 reasons to determine if they are now eligible for the PUA program. Claimants who are determined eligible for the program will have an opportunity to complete weekly certifications for the weeks they were unemployed, partially unemployed, or unable or unavailable for work. This update only applies to PUA claims that are already on file. It does not provide an opportunity for individuals to file new claims. The PUA program was created through
the CARES Act, and was active in North Dakota from Feb. 2, 2020, through June 19, 2021. All denied eligibility determinations for PUA will be reviewed by Job Service North Dakota, and claimants will have another opportunity to self-certify which COVID19-related reason(s) caused them to become unemployed, partially unemployed, or unable or unavailable for work. The three additional reasons are: I was denied continued unemployment benefits because I refused to return to work or accept an offer of work at a worksite that, in either instance, is not in compliance with local, state, or national health and safety standards directly related to COVID-19. This includes but is not limited to, those related to facial mask wearing, physical distancing measures, or the provision of per-
PSC educating North Dakotans about regulations for different types of auctions The North Dakota Public Service Commission (PSC) wants all North Dakotans buying through auctions to understand the different types of auctions, the protection offered to the buyer or seller, and what regulatory authority the PSC has for each. For public auctions, the auctioneer and auction clerk must be licensed by the PSC, but the law specifically exempts auctions which occur exclusively via the internet, also known as internet auctions, from the Commission’s jurisdiction. Increased access to technology, and restrictions due to COVID-19, has caused many auctioneers to change how they conduct business. It is not uncommon for auctions to include an option for bidding online, and in some cases, the auction is entirely held online. It’s important for shoppers to understand that if the auction is being held exclusively online, meaning no in person bidding is being offered, then that auction is not under the PSC’s jurisdiction. “It is vital that both buyers and sellers understand that state law does not grant the PSC jurisdiction over an online-only auction, even if the sale is conducted by one of our
licensed auctioneers,” said Commissioner Randy Christmann, who holds the auctioneer portfolio. An auctioneer licensed by the PSC is required to have a surety bond filed with the Commission, but if they are conducting an internet auction, the bond would offer no protection to the buyer or seller. If the auction is offering both online and in person bids, or is entirely in person bidding, then that would be a regulated auction and the bond protection would apply. A list of licensed auctioneers is available on the PSC’s website as a resource for the public. The North Dakota Public Service Commission is a constitutionally created state agency with authority to permit, site and regulate certain business activities in the state including electric and gas utilities, telecommunications companies, power plants, electric transmission lines, pipelines, railroads, auctioneers, commercial weighing devices, pipeline safety and coal mine reclamation.

By Katie Henry NDSU Extension Family and Community Wellness Agent Parent Support The past week I have had a couple of amazing experiences as a parent and some others that were not so amazing. Before I became a parent, I had these grand ideas that I would plan everything perfectly, never raise my voice, and I would have these sweet angels that listened to my every word and do exactly what they are supposed to do when they are supposed to do it - then reality hit. I had forgotten about free will, exhaustion, responsibilities outside of the family, other people’s thoughts on topics, unexpected events and delays among what feels like the bazillion other things that happen along the way. Parenting is a lot of the greatness I expected with some twists and turns through stinky sloughs and mosquitos that I had not had the pleasure of experiencing, yet. The greatness far outways the difficulties, but I need to remember to recharge my batteries some days. The other day I got to experience an event developed by the NDSU Extension Parent Educators called “Parent Café”. The concept behind the Parent Cafes is to provide a safe place for parents and caregivers of children to talk about the challenges and victories of raising a family. It is all a virtual experience through Zoom, so anyone can join at any time. It’s usually offered once a month throughout the year and is a great place for parents, guardians, and caregivers to explore their strengths and create strategies to help strengthen their families and relationships with children.

NDSU Extension Notes
During the experience, we were asked to share, to refrain from judgement of any kind, to not give advice, and to have fun. We practiced listening skills. We communicated with each other. We were asked to identify people who we knew were resilient and why we thought so. We were asked to share times we felt success as a parent/ caregiver. We were asked to share difficulties and how we overcame them. It was a safe, comfortable environment that helped us celebrate successes, identify supports, and develop ideas to help us become better. It was a great experience. The concept of the Parent Café was very interesting. No one gave advice or judgement, so it was a peaceful environment, but there was so much to be gained by attending. It was interesting how I could feel the joy from others’ successes, how I could analyze how something worked (or didn’t work) for the other parent and learn for myself from their personal experience, and how their ideas and thoughts of others and themselves help trigger and develop thoughts and new ideas of my own. The hour and a half flew by, and I was shocked when it was time to say our goodbyes. Successful parenting often comes down to being present, being consistent, and always doing what’s in the best interest of your child. It’s not always easy to be able to do those things, and sometimes parents need to recharge their batteries, so to speak. It’s helpful for parents and caregivers to have a support system, and Parent Café sessions through NDSU Extension can be a part of that. We all know that if you are a parent or caregiver, there will probably be times where your child hollers, throws things, is defiant, slams

If you are a parent or caregiver, take time to recharge your batteries by joining a Parent Café or going to your personal parenting support network. If you are a friend or family member to someone who could use some parenting support, you can help them by listening without advice or judgement and encourage them to join a Parent Café put on by the NDSU Extension Parent Educators. As a friend or extended family member, you could even take the class for yourself to help foster better relationships with the children in your life.

Dakota Gardener: Houseplant fungus gnat woes
By Esther E. McGinnis, Horticulturist NDSU Extension
After a long summer of vegetable and flower gardening, we turn our attention indoors. Houseplants are a wonderful way to experience a touch of nature as we transition to the winter season. However, houseplants are not without challenges. One of the most common problems for plant parents are insects. At first you see an occasional small unidentified flying insect (I call them UFIs) around the house. You dismiss it as a fluke. Next thing you know, you are regularly swatting these small dark-colored gnats that seem to be drawn to you and your houseplants. The holidays are fast approaching and you don’t want Aunt Harriet to see your UFI infestation. What should you do?
As with any pest, the key is to accurately identify the pest. If the oneeighth inch flying insects resemble tiny mosquitos with long delicate legs and antennae, they could be fungus gnats. To definitively identify the pest, look at the transparent wings under a magnifying glass. Fungus gnat wings have a distinctive rounded “Y” pattern. Fungus gnats are frequently found in houseplants. They can enter the home when a new plant is purchased or they can infest an existing plant that is placed outdoors for the summer. While the adults are a nuisance, the real problem are the larvae. Each adult can lay up to 200 eggs in potting soil. The larvae feed on fungi and decaying plant matter in the top couple inches of potting soil. Managing fungus gnats need not be a toxic battle if you understand their life cycle and their environmental preferences. The larvae thrive in overwatered potting soil. To reduce the number of eggs that hatch and the number of larvae that survive to adulthood, cut back on watering frequency and allow the top two inches of potting soil to dry out before the next watering. This is the most effective option for managing fungus gnats. Most houseplants use less water during
the winter and will benefit from less frequent watering. To monitor for the adult gnats, place yellow sticky cards on stakes in the houseplant container. Yellow sticky cards can be purchased at garden centers. The color attracts the adults and they become stuck to the adhesive. If you see more and more adults stuck to the cards, then more control measures may be required. To determine which houseplant in your collection is the source of the larval infestation, place a small cut potato on the surface of the potting soil. Check the cut end in a couple of days. If there are numerous larvae with black heads feeding on the potato starches, it may be time to treat the houseplant. Rather than reaching for an insecticide spray, consider a less toxic option. The larvae are susceptible to biological products containing Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis (Bti). The scientific name is a mouthful but it is the active ingredient in Mosquito Bits and Gnatrol. These products are toxic to the fungus gnat larvae. Multiple applications may be necessary to achieve control. Hopefully these control measures will manage infestations before your holiday get-togethers.

By Jill Kruse, D.O. Daylight savings time has just ended and now everyone has had the chance to “fall back” to standard time. While many people enjoy that extra hour of sleep that comes each fall, 63 percent of Americans say that they would support the elimination of seasonal time changes and there are some health issues to consider. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine also supports this stance due to the sleep disruption that occurs related to this biannual change. Our body has its own internal clock called the circadian rhythm which helps set our internal sleepwakefulness cycle. This cycle is sensitive to light, especially daylight. It is responsible for the production of melatonin and serotonin in our brain. Melatonin helps synchronize our sleep-wake cycle to our environment. Unfortunately, bright lights and anything with a back lit screen – phone, television, tablet, or computer - suppresses your body’s

production of melatonin and can adversely affect your sleep quality. A study completed in 2020 by the National Institutes of Health found that 150,000 Americans experience negative health effects related to daylight savings time changes, mainly with the “spring forward” changes. The four most prominent health conditions with increased risks of occurring in the weeks following the time changes include the following: cardiovascular disease (including increased risk of heart attacks), increased risk of injuries, worsening of mental or behavioral disorders, and flares in immune related diseases. What can you do to minimize your risk? Try to gradually prepare the body by slowly adjusting your sleep cycle before and after the time change to make the change less abrupt. One thing that will help is by slowly changing your bedtime in 15 to 30-minute increments each night until you get to your new desired sleep and wake times. In the hours leading up to bedtime, try to avoid bright lights and anything with a back lit screen. Going outside in natural day-

light, especially in the morning, can help reset your internal clock. Light exercise in the morning or afternoon can help lower stress hormones and promote better sleep later that evening. Try to keep a bedtime routine and work to get seven to eight hours of sleep each night. A consistent schedule for when you go to bed and when you get up is much easier on your body and its internal clock. So, after you have changed your smoke detector batteries and reset all your clocks, remember to work on gently helping your body reset its own internal clock with healthy choices. This will help you transition to the new time schedule with ease. Your body will thank you.

Prairie Fare: Which protein foods have you tried?
Do they really expect me to eat this? I thought to myself. My dad and my grandfather on my mom’s side used to enjoy “old country” delicacies now and then. “Do you want some blood sausage?” one asked with a chuckle. “How about some head cheese?” the other one asked as he added some vinegar and pepper. I’m surprised one of them didn’t hand me a plate of lutefisk. They knew my response. I was not an adventurous eater in those days. I left the kitchen. With a few notable exceptions, I grew up eating all sorts of protein, both domestic and wild game. I happily ate pheasant, grouse, goose and venison during hunting season and freshly caught fish. Beef, chicken, turkey, pork and other meats, poultry and eggs regularly were on our menu. We also had a wide variety of plant proteins, including all types of beans. By the way, according to the recent recommendations, on average, adults need about 6 to 7 ounces of protein daily. One ounce of protein equals one egg, 1 ounce of domestic or wild game meats or fish, 1/4 cup of cooked beans, 6 tablespoons of hummus or 1/2 ounce of nuts or seeds. However, I had never tasted lamb while growing up. Lamb, like other meats, is a rich source of protein and minerals such as zinc, iron and selenium. Later, I developed a taste for a wider range of protein foods, including lamb. When I ate at a Mediterranean restaurant as a teenager, I discovered gyro (pronounced “yerow”) sandwiches. Gyros can be made from a variety of meats, often lamb, pork, beef or chicken. I recall seeing the lamb meat being roasted on a rotating tower. The word “gyro” means “to turn” in Greek. Food historians report that the
gyro originated with Alexander the Great, when soldiers roasted meat on their swords over a fire. Before writing this column, I checked in with our sheep specialist at NDSU, Travis Hoffman. He helped me acquire some information, including the recipe and photo for this week’s column. Ground lamb is likely the most common item a consumer can find this fall at many local grocery stores. A majority of lamb is sold in the Northeast region of U.S., so availability sometimes is the most limiting factor in our region. The COVID-19 pandemic has positively impacted American lamb sales at retail. Lamb volume has increased from 20% to 30% annually and captured the greatest demand gains in the protein sector. Consumers did not patronize restaurants as frequently in 2020 to 2021, and at-home cooking is much more fun with innovative recipes. Make lamb tacos, create your own lamb burger or add lamb to your favorite pasta dish. Hoffman’s go-to lamb flavor pairings are traditional with garlic, rosemary and feta cheese, which are all featured in this week’s recipe. This recipe is courtesy of the American Lamb Board. Olives and feta cheese are tasty but notably high in sodium. To reduce sodium, use fewer olives and less feta (or rinse it), and omit the salt. See www.americanlamb.com for more delicious lamb recipes. The pitas can be “grilled” on the stovetop in a pan or with a panini press. If you would like to make your own tzatziki dressing, see the NDSU Extension publication at https:// www.ndsu.edu/agriculture/extension/publications/field-fork-cucumbers to view “Field to Fork Cucumbers.” To make your own hummus, see the NDSU Extension publication at https://www.ag.ndsu. edu/publications/food-nutrition/ pinchin2019-pennie-in-the-kitchen-hummus-roasted-chickpeasand-more-how-to-use-chickpeasin-your-recipes to view “Pinchin’ Pennies in the Kitchen: Hummus, Roasted Chickpeas and More!”

with her husband to teach, but current information lists her closer to home than Kansas. Melissa’s husband is now employed by the NDSU Research Center at Carrington where they are currently living. Bonnie Spenst’s married name is Mask (1980), and she does live in Texas, but her husband is Todd, not Glen. When I reached Julie Blair Danielson (1981), she was in her husband’s Twin Cities hospital room, so our visit was brief. After graduating from LHS she went on to UND, graduated with a BA in account-
Langdon Long Ago
ing in 1985, and went on to get her CPA. She then moved to the Minneapolis area of Minnesota where she did accounting for 21 years with Frandsen Financial, a banking firm with outlets in both North Dakota and Minnesota. Danette Lewis Pengilly (1984) went on to get her Nurse Practitioner credentials and works for and with a heart specialist at the Heart and Lung Clinic in Bismarck. 1987 - Donovan Twaddle and Suzanne Johnson. Donovan Twaddle, son of Jim and Corrine Twaddle, grew up in Langdon where his father, an

alumnus of LHS, came to teach math and physical education in 1970. While I knew Donovan had received some scholarships for college, his family moved to Minnesota after their children graduated from LHS so finding relatives to ask was difficult. However, his name is not common in small towns so typing it into an internet search brought up several websites, his blog, and information on his many activities all located in or near the Twin Cities area. A sideline for his father was art work, which can be found in a number of Langdon homes today, so it was no surprise to find Donovan describing himself as a graphic artist. Suzanne Johnson, who was the Outstanding Girl choice in 1987, is the daughter of John and Kathleen Johnson which means she grew up surrounded by music since her father taught band at LHS and directed choirs while her mother has been a long-time organist at United Lutheran and has taught hundreds of children to play the piano. When Suzanne was a freshman, she joined a new sport for girls at Langdon High School, coached by Supt. Delmar Lewis. That sport was volleyball- still very popular today. Suzanne went on to NDSU where she earned an accounting degree with a minor in music and later her CPA, working in accounting until choosing to become a full-time mom and enjoy the activities of her three children. Suzanne Hanson and her family live in Maple Grove, MN. 1988 – Curt Kram and Tami Ring. Curt Kram, son of Jake and Judy Kram who farmed near Wales, is another who grew up in a farming and musical family. After high school he went to NDSU majoring in music and teaching. Curt began his 28 years of directing bands and choirs at Pembina with the last 25 years spent at Langdon directing concert, pop, jazz and beginner’s band while sometimes also directing choirs plus participating in many community musical events. He is even part of a popular group called The Frozen Four who cheer up friends and neighbors at Christmas. Besides farming with family, Curt also has his Master’s in Education from NDSU and is currently the elementary principal at Munich. Tami Ring is the daughter of Lynn and Sharon Ring so grew up on the family farm near Dresden. In high school Tami was part of many sports events including basketball and track. She was a member of both the 1985 and 1986 Langdon track teams who won at state. She went on to NDSU and received her Doctorate of Pharmacy degree in 1996 as part of one of the earliest groups to receive that title. Dr. Tami Lies and her family now make their home in Fargo where she is a pharmacist. 1989 – Jason Kram and Lynell Rude. Jason Kram, son of Mike and Kathy Kram, was one of two boys with the same first and last names in school at the same time so the research involved both families and classmates who described him as “really smart”. Out for many activities, Jason was all-region in football, outstanding sophomore athlete, a honor student, and made the Who’s Who in American High School Students for three consecutive years. This Jason earned both his first degree and his Master’s in Mechanical Engineering from NDSU. He was part of a consulting group in Kansas for several years and now makes his home in Houston, Texas, where he is vice president of a consulting group in that state. Lynell Rude is the second daughter of Elroy and Marilyn Rude to be awarded the Outstanding Girl trophy. Like her sister, she was also in many activities including speech, band, FBLA, and a honor student. Following high school, she went on to UND and earned her CPA. Now married to Todd Ussatis, they make their home in Mandan where she works at Haga-Kommer Accounting. 1990 – John Luhmann and Dawn Throndset. This year’s outstanding boy and girl were once again “in everything” while in high school and went on to continue community activity in their adult lives. John, son of Dennis and Barbara Luhmann, chose band, choir, football, basketball, golf, honor society, science club, and even something called the slide of death team. Planning to enter the ministry, he chose Wheaton College in Illinois for Biblical Theological Studies and
went on to nearby Trinity Evangelical Seminary for his Master’s of Divinity. This was followed by 19 years in the ministry mostly in Montana and then he began his own company, Craftsman Woodwork, doing construction. Currently they live near Missoula, MT, have two children in college, three teenage boys on high school teams, and two younger children making for a busy family. Dawn Throndset, daughter of Dennis and Carol Throndset, is the first but not the last daughter of a previous Outstanding recipient to be chosen for this award. Her father, Dennis, was chosen in 1967. Dawn was an officer in many of her high school activities, student council, choir, and mentioned Science Olympiad, relatively new to the school at that time. She went to Moorhead State for her teaching degree and enjoyed the opportunity to do her student teaching in Switzerland. She taught for seven years, then was county librarian for seven years, and in 2010, she joined the staff at Brooks Funeral Home where she is still employed. Married to Stoney Kruk, Dawn is a current member of the Langdon School Board and has served on the LASD Foundation as well. 1991 – Tyrone Spenst and Jennifer Johnston. Tyrone Spenst, son of Art and Pauline Spenst, is another graduate from a musical home. Mom played the piano, and everyone from grandma and grandpa on down sang. Tyrone had a deep voice and loved to sing so he is pictured in the annual in several musical groups. Following high school, he attended Northwestern College in St. Paul and received a degree in pastoral studies. His wife, Pauline, studied Christian Education, and they have served churches in Illinois and Minnesota. Jennifer Johnston, daughter of Roger and Carol Johnston from Nekoma, was chosen Outstanding Girl for 1991. The 1991 yearbook has many unlabeled pictures, but an earlier book lists Jennifer active in many of the school activities. She went on to UND to train as a physical therapist and has worked in that department of Altru Hospital ever since. Jennifer married Jerry Hoffarth from Grand Forks (he had Langdon grandparents). They make their home in Grand Forks. 1992 – Clayton Fetsch and Kristi Ullyott. 1992 was a photogenic class with names under their pictures. The two outstanding award recipients were also Homecoming King and Queen besides active in almost everything. Clayton Fetsch, son of Colin and Mary Beth, had four good years of school sports, class offices, band, and Legion baseball. After high school he enrolled in the medical school at UND and received his medical degree in 2001. That work included his residency in surgery at the University of Kansas School of Medicine in Wichita. Clay and his family now make their home in McPherson, KS. Kristi Ullyott, the daughter of Bob and Gaylene Ullyott, also worked at a local restaurant so became known at that time as the “perky girl” for her cheerful personality. Cheerleading, speech, and many of the clubs kept her so busy the annual sometimes included her picture two or three times on the same page! Kristi went on to earn her teaching credentials at UND and taught at Munich before marrying high school classmate Rod Gellner. Rod has a few trophies of his own playing football in high school and later at Jamestown College. They have four children and make their home in West Fargo where Kristi home-schooled her children for several years. 1993 – Jim Crockett and Andrea Larson. Jim Crockett, son of Rick and Carolyn Crockett, was chosen Outstanding boy in 1993. He began his college years at Wahpeton and then went on to NDSU where I believe he majored in ag systems management (my notes are not always legible) to prepare for farming. In addition to farming with his brother, he is Northwest Regional Branch Manager for CHS. Andrea Larson, daughter of Larry and Diane Larson who farmed near Calvin, came to Langdon for high school and attended UND for her English teaching degree. In 2000 she married Christopher Endicott. At that time, they lived in St. Paul and both were teaching in the Mora School System in Minnesota.
