Annual Meeting Is Friday

Keuhn, Schlarb Will Be Honored As ‘Pillars’

Grundy R-5 Board Meeting The Grundy R-5 Board of Education will meet in regular session at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, March 13 at the school in Galt. Items on the announced agenda include mowing bids, a discussion concerning transportation, board policies and updates, a financial report and reports from the special education director, the elementary principal and the junior/senior high principal. An executive session for personnel, personnel records and student matters is also planned.

It is said that when you want something done, ask the busiest person you know. The choices for the 2019 Trenton Area Chamber of Commerce Pillars of the Year certainly personify that statement 10-fold. R.W. Keuhn and Phil Schlarb are both natives of Trenton and are quick to point out the importance of “giving back” to the community in which their lives were shaped. Both men graduated from Trenton High School and attended Trenton Junior College (Schlarb is a graduate). And after earning a four-year degree and taking time out for the military (Keuhn) and additional education (Schlarb), both men chose to come back to Trenton and make it their permanent home. For 37 years, Keuhn, along with his wife Twyla, owned and operated the Gift Nook at Eastgate Shopping Center. The couple raised their two sons (Dr. David Keuhn and Matt Keuhn) here and it was during that time that Keuhn began his journey as a community volunteer. “When we opened the store, it seemed like we were there all the time and it was hard to get involved,” Keuhn said. “But then once our kids got old enough and started to become involved in things, that’s when we did, too.” That involvement included both athletics and Boy Scouts, with Keuhn serving as a coach as both sons moved from league to league while participating in TBA. He was also a scout leader for Troop 99, where both of his sons earned their Eagle Scout awards. “I really enjoyed baseball and scouts,” Keuhn said. “I think it’s important to get involved with things that mean

R-9 Superintendent Reception The public is invited to attend a reception on Wednesday, March 13 for new Trenton R-9 Superintendent Mike Stegman. The reception will be held from 2 to 5 p.m. at the district office, located at 1607 Normal St. Stegman, who was hired by the board of education earlier this year, begins his new duties on July 1.

Community Blood Drive The Community Blood Center will be bringing its bloodmobile to Trenton on Monday, March 18. The bloodmobile will be at the North 65 Center from noon to 6 p.m. and is being sponsored by the Grundy County RSVP and Trenton Lions Club. To make an appointment, persons can go online to esavalifenow.org and enter the sponsor code TN. Donors can also come to the North 65 Center during the scheduled donation times.

Spring Hike Planned Crowder State Park staff will be hosting a “Spring into Spring” hike along the Tall Oaks Trail on Saturday, March 23. The hike will get under way at 10 a.m., with hikers to meet at Shelter 3 parking lot. Staff members will be pointing out interesting features along the 3.2 mile trail. Hikers are reminded to bring water and to wear weather-appropriate clothing.

TMS Choir Fundraiser The Trenton Middle School Choir will hold its annual spaghetti dinner fundraiser, “Thank You for the Music,” on Friday, March 22. The eat-what-you-want, pay-what-you-want event will be held in the THS commons, beginning at 5:30 p.m. Members of the TMS Choir will be performing during the evening. All proceeds will be used to allow the choir to participate in the Worlds of Fun Choir Festival on Saturday, April 13.

Shelter Funds Awarded JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Three Missouri school districts will receive $3.5 million to build tornado shelters. The State Emergency Management Agency announced Thursday that the grants will go to schools in Christian (Sparta), Lawrence (Miller) and McDonald (Goodman) counties. The planned safe rooms would shelter more than 2,250 people. The projects will require local matches ranging from 10 to 25 percent.

R.W. Keuhn

Phil Schlarb

something and those two things certainly meant a lot to our family.” Another passion he has is his involvement with the Community Food Pantry. Not only does he serve on the board of directors, it’s not uncommon to find him there as a volunteer several hours each week. “I think he would be there every day, all day, if he could,” his wife, Twyla said. He is a past member of the Trenton Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors as well as the Eastgate Merchants board. He has served several terms as a member of the Grundy County-Jewett Norris Library Board and is a long-time trustee of the Edinburg IOOF Cemetery Board. He was one of the original volunteers with the Missouri Day Marching Band Festival and also works each year as a volunteer at the NCMC Holiday Hoops. An active member of the Trenton First Baptist Church, Keuhn has taught Sunday school, served on various committees, been a member of the choir and has even found time to drive the church van when needed. “You should be involved in what you enjoy,” he said. “You’ll do a much better job if

you enjoy it.” And in Keuhn’s case, his enjoyment has been the community’s benefit. ********** Schlarb has never been one to shy away from a volunteering opportunity. During his 38 years at North Central Missouri College first as a business instructor and then as an associate dean Schlarb served the school in various capacities as a division chair, faculty senate president, Phi Theta Kappa sponsor and chaired the events recognizing NCMC on its 50th, 65th and 75th anniversaries. He coordinated various vocational and technical education programs, then helped write grants that provided $3.9 million for those programs. But being busy on the NCMC campus did not keep Schlarb from also lending his time and talents to the community-at-large. As a business owner (Eastside Cleaning Center and ComputerAid), Schlarb and his wife, Judy, were members of the chamber and, as such, Schlarb took on the role of chamber board president - not once, but twice. He also served six years on the Trenton Park Board, including See Chamber, Page 6

SPORTS CLASS 3 SHOW-ME SHOWDOWN

Strafford Too Much For Trenton In Semis When making a case for the greatest girls basketball team in Missouri history, the Strafford Indians certainly have a claim. One could argue for the Rock Bridge girls’ basketball team which won four straight-state titles and produced four starters for the University of Missouri women’s basketball team from 2012-2015. But not even those Bruins can match Strafford’s state-record winning streak, which reached 115 games with their fourthstraight state title on Friday. The Trenton Bulldogs had the unenviable task of trying to snap that streak on Thursday in the Class 3 girls basketball state quarterfinals in the JQH Arena in Springfield. It did not work out. Trenton became another tally in Strafford’s win column as the Bulldogs fell 63-33 – the first loss of the season for Trenton. “They are pretty good,” Trenton Head Coach Brian Upton said. “There is a reason they have won over 100 games in a row. They didn’t let us do the things that we wanted to do. They hit a lot of shots no matter what defense we were in.” From the onset, Strafford showed the signs of being one of the all-time great programs in state basketball history, opening the game on a 10-0 run. Trenton showed some fight, however, connecting on back-to-back three-pointers from Ainsley Tolson and Mykah Hurley. The mini surge put Trenton right back in the ballgame, down just four points, but the momentum was shortlived. Tolson went to the bench shortly after with her second foul and Strafford began to knock down three-pointers at an unbelievable rate – even for the Indians. Strafford entered the game shooting 40 percent from beyond the arc this season. They were able to hit seven-of-11 from distance in the first half against Trenton – good for 63.6 percent. Trenton could not match that pace and trailed 37-16 at halftime. “We kind of knew what we were going into,” Salem Croy said. “Coach always told us, ‘you know, don’t under-estimate them, but don’t under-estimate yourself.’ They came out and they made those shots and after the first quarter we were like ‘okay, he was right, this is definitely going to be tough.’ But, I felt like we never quit. Even though the score looked kind of rough, we never quit.” Strafford’s three-point shooting came back to right around its season average in the second half, but there would be no coming back for the Bulldogs. Trenton scuffled to the end, but still fell by the 30-point margin. The Bulldogs were led in the loss by 11 points each from Tolson and Maci Moore. Tolson added four assists and four steals and Moore had eight rebounds and two blocked shots. Six points from Croy and five from Hurley rounded out the Trenton total. Sidney Lynch had nine rebounds. Strafford wrapped up the state title on Friday, but in surprisingly close fashion, defeating Lutheran North 61-53. The Indians won their first state title in the current streak by just four points over Saxony Lutheran, but had won each of the past two championship games by over 40 points.

ON THEIR TERMS Trenton Girls Close Dominating Era With 54-40 Third-Place Game Victory

Inside the John Q. Hammons Student Center in Springfield on Friday night, the greatest era of Trenton High School girls’ athletics came to an end. Never before had a group accomplished so much in a four-year span at Trenton. It’s likely the run will never again be replicated. Fittingly enough - for all the victories, all the trophies and all the accolades that this group has achieved – it ended with a win. Trenton defeated Licking 54-40 in the Class 3 girls basketball third-place game. The win gave Trenton a final record of 27-1. “I think it’s harder, because we have played together for so long, to really think this is over,” Trenton senior Salem Croy said. “It’s been 12 years that we have been playing together. I’m so glad that we pulled out the win. (Licking) is a great team, it was a tough game. But, just to be out there with my best friends, knowing that it was our last game, was more than anything I could have asked for.” This final victory followed the blueprint penned by this team all year long. The Bulldogs used suffocating defense, lightning-quick guard play and a dominating presence inside. It was everything the 26 previous wins were, barring the lone blemish on the Bulldogs’ final record – a loss to arguably the greatest Class 3 girls basketball team the state has ever seen, just 16 hours earlier. When the final second ticked off the clock, this group, so cherished by a community that traveled in droves the nearly four hours to cheer them on during this culminating event, gathered near the bench and embraced as teammates one final time. “We didn’t want to end on a loss,” Senior Ainsley Tolson said. “A reflection of the whole season, we haven’t lost except to the best team in the whole state. That’s a pretty good record and we knew we wanted to finish it how we started it.” Trenton yielded seven offensive rebounds to Licking in the first half and only forced the Wildcats into one turnover. Yet, when the buzzer sounded at the conclusion of the opening two quarters, Licking had just 12 points on the scoreboard. The Wildcats, who shot 45 percent from the floor on the season coming in, connected on just four-of-23 shot attempts in the first half, in-

cluding a two-for-12 mark from beyond the three-point line. “Really, the reason we have won a lot of games is because we really play sound defense,” Coach Brian Upton said. “(Licking) is very aggressive. Their guards average almost four rebounds apiece, so when that shot goes up, there are usually three or four people crashing. But, I thought overall, defensively we were very good. They struggled shooting, which was to our advantage. They didn’t hit some shots that they were probably capable of making, but I think

The Trenton High School girls basketball team placed third in the state, defeating Licking 54-40 in the third-place game on Friday in Springﬁeld. Members of the team included, from left, front row, Mykah Hurley, Salem Croy, Ainsley Tolson, Sidney Lynch, Taylor Richman; back row, Assistant Coach John Cowling, Teya Cooksey, Chandler Lynch, Lexi Whitaker, Maci Moore, McKayla Blackburn, Gracyn Rongey and Head Coach Brian Upton.

that was partly because of what we were doing defensively.” The Bulldogs opened the second half on a 70 run to push the lead to 26-12 and held the 14point advantage through the remainder of the third quarter, going to the fourth up 36-22. Trenton pushed the advantage to 19 points with just five minutes to play, but had to hold on as Licking came charging back. The Wildcats trimmed the lead to single digits with two minutes to play, but Trenton staved off the threat, hitting free throws at the end to stretch the final margin to the 14-point spread. “It was really important today,” Upton said. “I wanted so bad, personally, for this group to win. You know, we don’t talk a lot about just winning. In high school you want to have success, you want to play hard and you want to do all of the right things, but dang it, I wanted them to win today because I wanted them to walk off the court with something special that nobody at Trenton High School has done before in basketball. I think they have cemented the legend that is this senior group. They have been the most prolific athletic group that has come through and it was fitting that they got to go off with a win. I couldn’t be happier for them and the world is going to be a better place when they are out in it.” Trenton was just seven-for-16 from the freethrow line in the game and connected on just three-of-13 three-point attempts, but the Bulldogs destroyed Licking inside. Of the 54 points Trenton scored, 36 came in the paint. “We are a really good interior passing team,” Upton said. “When we are moving between, Sidney (Lynch), Maci (Moore), Taylor (Richman), Lexi (Whitaker), whoever is in the post, they make an effort to find each other and today it was a little more from our guards driving in and finding a player, but what you kind of saw today is what we have done all year.” Sophomore Maci Moore was a big part of Trenton’s interior prowess, leading the Bulldogs in her final game of the season with 22 points, See Senior Class, Page 3

With the North Central Missouri College menâ€™s basketball team going to the free throw line with a five-point lead and less than 10 seconds left in the game, Jacksonâ€™s gesture carried a lot of weight. The wall Jackson pointed to

said. â€œWeâ€™ve been fighting for this the whole year. We wanted to make history and be the first (menâ€™s basketball) team to get to the national tournament and we did it.â€? NCMC and Mid-South traded runs in the first half with the Pirates trailing 34-31 at the break. The Pirates saw the lead grow a bit in the second half before making a run to tie the game at 45-45. Cameron Lockett tied the game with a bucket and a free throw, but Mid-South re-took the lead with a deep threepointer. Lockett again tied the game with a deep triple of his own that brought the crowd at the packed KCC to its feet. The Pirates would take the lead on the ensuing possession and never relinquish it. â€œThatâ€™s in Camâ€™s arsenal, you know,â€? North Central Head Coach Jeremy Esry said of Lockettâ€™s game-tying three. â€œThatâ€™s something we probably donâ€™t want him to take a ton of, but we know he can hit it and we have some faith in him. I think that sparked us, though, and that led us to continue from then on.â€?

Jackson took over from that point, going on a personal 6-0 run to help extend the North Central lead. Mid-South would battle back, using three-pointers and missed NCMCâ€ˆfree throws to cut into the deficit. With under a minute to go the lead was just four points. But the Pirates got a stop and hit enough free throws at the end to ice the game and send the program to the national tournament for the first time ever. When the game ended, the Pirates rushed to the mid-court logo leaping in celebration. â€œThatâ€™s what itâ€™s all about,â€? Esry said. â€œItâ€™s about getting them graduated and getting them experiences that maybe they havenâ€™t gotten to experience before. Along the way, you put in the hard work to do that. Hopefully, there are a lot of life lessons in what we are doing. To see their emotions and see how happy they are, thatâ€™s a testament to their hard work and thatâ€™s a testament to them buying in as a team.â€?

eight rebounds. Jalen Lynn led Mid-South with a game-high 25 points. The Pirates will now turn their attention to the NJCAAâ€ˆ Division II National Tournament on March 19-23 at the Mary Miller Center in Danville, IL.

six rebounds and two blocked shots. She was 10-of-11 from the field for the contest. Behind Moore, Tolson went for 17 points, six rebounds and eight assists. Croy had eight points, six rebounds and three assists and Mykah Hurley finished with five points. Trentonâ€™s total was rounded out by two points from Sidney Lynch, who also had a game-high 11 rebounds. Trenton out-rebounded Licking 38-21 in the game. â€œI feel like rebounding is more of what I do best,â€? Lynch said. â€œMaci rebounds well, too, so whenever we can clean up the rebounds it helps a lot. It helps us get second chances and limit the other team. Iâ€™m not much of a scorer, Iâ€™ll score whenever I am open, but I work hard to get as many rebounds as I can to help make up for that.â€? Trentonâ€™s five senior players closed their careers with a 10114 overall basketball record. Combined with their record on the softball diamond, Trenton was 198-27 in the last four years combined across both sports. They collected a state runner-up finish in softball this past fall and captured a fourthplace finish in basketball in 2017 to go with this yearâ€™s third-place trophy. â€œI think itâ€™s awesome,â€? Tolson said of her and her classmatesâ€™ run. â€œI would take a second, third and fourth over fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth.

Iâ€™m really proud of our team. I think you donâ€™t get there without having a good team culture and just love for the game and love for each other. Iâ€™m really proud of us and Iâ€™m glad I got to have this experience with these girls.â€? Trenton will attempt to press on without the senior group that has become known as the â€œFab Five.â€? After their final game as Bulldogs, Upton took a moment to reflect on the group. â€œThere really arenâ€™t any words that I could say that would explain how I feel about this senior group,â€? he said. â€œFrom day one it was energy and excitement, fun and determination. I knew they were good basketball players and I knew they were good softball players. As a matter of fact, most of the time I was a little bit jealous because I thought they played more softball than basketball. But, the longer that I got to be around them, the more I realized how special of people they are, let alone whatever athletic event that they are competing in. The way that they cared for each other, the way they cared for things in general and the way they acted on the court â€“ you know, Iâ€™ve often said that a team plays as a reflection of their coach, but to be honest with you, there were a lot of times when I was coaching as a reflection of them and their love for the game and how they played it.â€?

the community each October. He served as the first chairman of the celebration and continues to be involved. But perhaps his greatest challenge was chairing the Trenton Sesquicentennial Celebration in 2007. Having been around for the centennial some 50 years earlier - no, it doesn’t embarrass him to say so - he wanted to make sure the community continued to remember its heritage. “I knew we were getting close to our 150th anniversary, so I went to the chamber to see if anyone had really thought about doing something,” he said. A meeting was called soon afterward and the planning began. “Everyone was just so cooperative and willing to help,” he said. “It was a lot of work but it was also a lot of fun. People stepped up and took responsibility and we were able to have a variety of things for everyone.” At one point, over 400 persons were involved in some way with the weeklong celebration. It was so successful that the committee was able to not only pay for all the costs

associated with the celebration, but also had $63,000 left over. Those monies were dispersed to various causes, including the development of the Sesquicentennial Park in downtown Trenton, which is enjoyed by the community and is the home for various activities, including the downtown Christmas celebration. “We also got the mural on the side of the museum painted, some organizations got money to help with projects, everyone benefitted,” he said. Schlarb continues to be involved in community activities and, in fact, is working with a group to bring back an organization similar to the Grundy County Friends of the Arts, which dissolved several years ago. “It’s important to understand your community and your responsibility to make it a great place to live,” Schlarb said. “There’s always something for everyone to do. And if you don’t like something that’s being done, then get involved. Be a force for change.” And Schlarb has been quite a force for the Trenton community.

uted to many different sources, most commonly Robin Sharma, though it actually dates back further than that, and the original orator is unknown. Whoever said it understood anxiety. The issue isn't whether you should stop joking around. This is about becoming comfortable enough with yourself to live in the present moment. Once you've nurtured some more serenity within, you'll find yourself interacting more naturally with others -- still joking around plenty, perhaps, but not out of a need for validation. Now, I realize "be comfortable with yourself" is a tall order for someone in high school. But there really are practical steps you can take toward finding some inner calm. I recommend seeing a counselor regularly, if you're not already. I also recommend taking up daily meditation. It might be hard to believe that something so simple could make a real difference, but there is a growing body of scientific evidence that meditation can significantly reduce psychological stresses, including a 2014 meta-study by researchers at Johns Hopkins that found that mindfulness meditation can ease anxiety and depression.

Dear Annie: I'm a freshman in high school, and I'm starting to make friends. I'm always trying to be silly with them. I guess I enjoy the validation when they laugh. But I don't want to be seen as too crazy or immature. I also have social anxiety, which means my interactions with others cause irrational anxiety. That is why I want the validation. But I don't just want to be the "funny person" of the group. I want to have good conversations. One-on-one, it's easier. I don't know why the dynamics change when there are more people. I assume that I get more anxious and I strive to be the center of attention. But it kind of hurts when they tease me back or afterward when I think my words were stupid. People have actually told me I'm "weird" and that I made them "uncomfortable." It makes me feel awful! I don't want to be seen like that, and it stinks when the thing I fear most (my flaws being exposed) becomes true. Should I stop joking around so much? -- Freshman Dear Freshman: Your letter brought to mind a saying: The mind is a wonderful servant but a terrible master. It's been attrib-

Officials of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People rang the closing bell recently at the New York Stock Exchange to mark the launch of a new exchange-traded fund. It focuses on U.S. companies deemed to be committed to racial and ethnic diversity. The fund, called the NAACP Minority Empowerment ETF, tracks the Morningstar minority empowerment index. (Though lending its name, the NAACP says it doesn’t sponsor, endorse or promote the fund.) African-Americans and Hispanics have traditionally participated in the stock market at lower levels than

whites, a factor in widening the wealth gap. There’s been some improvement in recent years. Exchange-traded funds, which track a market index, a commodity, bonds or a basket of assets, have grown in popularity among individual investors. Unlike mutual funds, they trade like common stock on an exchange. Their prices change throughout the day as they’re bought and sold. The minority empowerment index targets 200 large- and mid-cap stocks. It’s designed to produce a similar risk and return as the large- and mid-cap segment of the U.S. equity market.

Lastly, know that self-consciousness is as much a part of adolescence as acne. Even though most of your peers don't have social anxiety disorder, that doesn't mean they don't experience social anxiety. I guarantee you that all of them sometimes worry that they seem weird, silly or unintelligent. You are not alone. Dear Annie: A lot of people do not seem to realize that if 100 percent of their attention were on driving, that could eliminate many wrecks and fatalities. They drive foolishly. My son, 30, was recently driving on a highway, when the car in front of him stopped. He stopped in time, as did the Camry behind him. However, the driver of the next car was on her phone and hit the Camry at almost full speed. All the cars were totaled. My son's foot was damaged, but he didn't have to go to the emergency room like the other drivers and their kids. They were lucky to not die. -Rose Dear Rose: I am so glad that your son emerged relatively OK and that there were no fatalities. Not everyone is so fortunate. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in the United States alone, nine people are killed each day in crashes involving a distracted driver. Let's all keep our eyes on the road, our hands on the wheel and our fellow humans out of danger.

The Missouri Department of Conservation is asking Missourians to take an online survey for their input on acreage requirements needed to receive free landowner deer and turkey hunting permits and free small-game hunting and trapping landowner privileges. MDC is asking Missourians for their feedback by March 18 through the online survey at mdc.mo.gov/landownerinput. Information gathered through the online survey will be used by MDC as it considers potential changes to those acreage requirements. MDC currently issues free landowner permits for deer and turkey hunting to qualifying Missouri landowners with

at least five acres and members of their immediate households. In addition, those individuals are not required to have permits to hunt small game or trap on their properties. MDC offers the free landowner permits and privileges to show appreciation to landowners for wildlife habitat work provided on their Missouri properties. According to MDC, significantly more than five acres of wildlife habitat are necessary to have meaningful impacts on deer, turkey and small-game populations using that land. MDC research shows that about 20 to 25 acres of habitat are needed to support one deer in Missouri.
