A FORMER TONGANOXIE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT donates blood in this file photo taken during a Community Blood Center drive at the THS gymnasium.

TIME TO DONATE Stann Tate, marketing director with the Community Blood Center of Greater Kansas City, discusses the need for blood donations. Q: How has Superstorm Sandy affected blood donation needs? A: We did not have much of a request from the East Coast to help with Superstorm Sandy. The Community Blood Center supplies 70 hospitals in the Kansas City area. We did send donations to CBC of the Ozarks following the Joplin tornado. Q: Is there a time of year when blood donation is needed more? A: Yes. It is very hard for us to collect blood coming up toward Thanksgiving. This time of year, people have got to get ready for family coming, Christmas shopping and holiday planning. A lot of times, people put donating blood on the back burner with the colder weather. Q: How often can people donate

Firefighters battled two house fires Monday between Tonganoxie and McLouth, one of which sent two residents to a local hospital and left the home as a total loss. Firefighters were called about 4:20 a.m. Monday to a home in the 19800 block of Kansas Highway 16 in Jefferson County, McLouth City Fire Chief Carl Chalfant said. Chalfant said firefighters arrived less than 10 minutes after the call and the two-story home was fully engulfed. He said two people were at the home when the fire broke out and were taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and then Kansas University Hospital for smoke inhalation. The fire chief said the cause of the fire still is undetermined, but he said the fire was thought to have started in the basement room where a hot water heater, furnace and electric breaker box were located. Tonganoxie Township Fire Department from Leavenworth County, as well as Sarcoxie Township Fire Department Oskaloosa and Winchester city fire departments from Jefferson County assisted at the scene. Tonganoxie Township also responded to a house fire about 8:15 a.m. in the 21500 block of 235th Street about 3 miles northwest of Tonganoxie in Leavenworth County. Tonganoxie Township Fire Chief Tim Smith said cigarette ashes in a trash can were thought to be what started the fire. Firefighters contained the fire in the kitchen, though there was smoke damage throughout the one-story house, he said. No one was at the home when the fire started, Smith said. Stranger, Fairmount and Alexandria township fire departments, all Leavenworth County agencies, also assisted, Smith said.

Republicans sweep county races By Shawn Linenberger slinenberger@theworldco.info

Dennis Bixby said he didn’t really make any campaign promises, except for one — taking his wife to Alaska. Bixby, a current Tonganoxie City Council member, defeated Mike Yanez, the former Tonganoxie city administrator, with more than 62 percent of the vote (6,589-3,953) Tuesday night in the Leavenworth County Commission District 3 race. “I will work to do my best and I promised my wife a trip to Alaska if I won and that will probably happen in June,� Bixby said. Bixby said he was appreciative of the support he received during the campaign. “I had an awful lot of really good people help me and this is their victory as well as mine,� Bixby said. He will replace Republican John Flower for District 3. Flower, of Basehor, chose not to seek another term. Bixby said a top priority would be improvement in his district, which covers the southern portion of the county, including Basehor, Tonganoxie and Linwood. He said the southern portion of the county is the “growth engine� of the county and better roads would lead to more construction of houses and businesses, which would benefit the entire county. “The economy set us back a little bit,� Bixby said. “Hopefully we’re on the mend. If we can do that, the southern end will explode and grow in the next 10 years. I want to be a part of that.�

Republicans scored a clean sweep of contested races in Leavenworth County Races. Andy Dedeke, current captain for the Leavenworth County Sheriff’s office, defeated Democrat and former undersheriff Burdel Welsh (16,61110,943) in the sheriff race. Current sheriff Dave Zoellner chose not to seek another term. Todd Thompson won his re-election for county attorney, defeating Democratic challenger Pat Cahill (17,005-10,403), and deputy county clerk Janice Dickson defeated Democrat Thomas Koch (17,606-9,664) in the county treasurer race. County Treasurer Janice Young is retiring and chose not to seek re-election. And in the Leavenworth County Commission District 2 race, Republican Clyde Graeber won re-election, defeating Democratic challenger Donald G. Terrien by a 5,267-3,033 count. Dedeke, who won with about 60 percent of the vote, said he was pleased with the turnout. “I want to continue building a professional sheriff’s office that is responsive to the community and is a great resource to the people of Leavenworth County,� Dedeke said. “I’m very thankful to the citizens of Leavenworth County who voted for me and put their trust in me. I eagerly look forward to taking office and serving as everybody’s sheriff in Leavenworth County.� Thompson won in nearly the same fashion, taking 62 percent of the vote. Thompson thanked voters and said he had a great team. “It makes me feel like my staff and

port of organizations such as LJEC so we can fulfill our mission.� Good Shepherd food pantry coordinator Janet Stuke said she sees the need in the community on a daily basis. “Each day our volunteers’ goal is to serve local families in difficult times,� Stuke said. “The generosity of the LJEC employees and board make it possible to fulfill that goal. We are grateful for such supportive individuals and organizations throughout our community.�

McLouth football upended by Lyndon in sectional playoff bout By Justin Nutter jnutter@theworldco.info

MCLOUTH — As the old saying goes, “all good things must come to an end.” McLouth’s High’s best football season in seven years came to a screeching halt on Friday with a 39-6, Class 2-1A sectional playoff loss to Lyndon at Stan Braksick Sports Complex. After a scoreless first quarter, the Tigers (11-0) went in front on a threeyard plunge by Josh Owens on the first play of the second quarter. Meanwhile, the Bulldogs (9-2) struggled to move the ball on offense in the first half, as they managed just 49 total yards before the break. “They’ve just got size and they’ve got speed,” coach Chris Stewart said. “Any time you’ve got size and speed, it’s pretty hard to go against that. When we tried to pass, they blitzed and they just have bigger kids. That’s all there is to it.” It looked as though Lyndon would take a 7-0 lead into intermission, but a broken play allowed the Tigers to extend their advantage to two scores in

the second quarter. McLouth’s Marc Walbridge seemingly broke up a fourthdown pass attempt by quarterback Joe Walsh deep in MHS territory, but Tiger receiver Gaige Brecheisen grabbed the deflected ball and kept his foot inbounds to extend the drive. Walsh then scored on a sneak to make it 13-0 Lyndon. The Tigers put the game out of reach with 20 straight points in the third quarter. Walsh scored on a one-yard run, Owens broke free from 27 yards out and the duo hooked up for a 34-yard scoring strike to make it 33-0 late in the period. “I’m just really impressed with their entire team — their quarterback, their running backs, their line and everything,” Stewart said of Lyndon. “They’ve got a good football team.” The Bulldogs got on the scoreboard when Walbridge hit Nick McAferty for a 59-yard touchdown pass with four seconds left in the third. It was the 10th time the duo hooked up for a score this season. Lyndon’s Skylar Farwell, who ran for a game-high 105 yards, capped off scoring with a 46-yard touchdown run late in the final period.

Fall season wasn’t short on success

Tonganoxie High in 2006, has now turned his focus to competitive powerlifting. Upon returning to northeast Kansas, he caught the attention of veteran lifters, and the rest is history. “I had gotten competitive from football, just lifting there, then I found out my football career was done, but I wanted to get back

Tonganoxie High’s fall sports season is officially in the books, and what a season it was. Whether it was on the football field, the soccer field, the volleyball court or the cross country course, success wasn’t hard for Chieftain teams to find in 2012. I think I speak for the whole Tonganoxie community when I say the last few months have been a blast. As far as expectations go, the outlook wasn’t too bright for the THS football team — at least not outside the Beatty Field locker room. With a new coach and a team that had won just two games in its previous two seasons, Al Troyer’s team didn’t garner much preseason attention. But, as was made evident by their team shirts on the first day of practice, the Chieftains believed. Just before the team took the field for its 12:01 a.m. practice on Aug. 13, Troyer spoke to his players about November football. Less than three months later, they turned Troyer’s vision into reality by winning their first district title in seven years. Statistically, it was a banner year for a Chieftain team led by a slew of juniors. Cole Holloway became the schools first 1,000-yard rusher since 2009 with 1,217 yards, Tyler Ford threw for 1,071 yards and Shane Levy racked up 974 yards of total offense. On the defensive side of the ball, Levy led the team with seven sacks while midseason transfer James Grizzle tallied 40 tackles and three sacks in just seven games. With several key contributors returning and plenty of momentum in their favor, there’s no reason to

MARC WALBRIDGE threw for 144 yards on Friday against Lyndon. Owens and Walsh added 85 and 43 rushing yards, respectively, and Walsh threw for 46 more. Walbridge threw for 144 yards to lead McLouth, while T.J. Crowell led the ground attack with 36 yards. With time running out in the fourth Please see MCLOUTH, Page 13

Former Chieftain excels as competitive powerlifter Jeff Frank II hung up his football pads a few years ago, but he knew he wasn’t ready to get away from the thrill of competition. As it turns out, the former Chieftain lineman’s desire to return to the heat of battle led him away from the gridiron and into the weight room. Frank, who signed to play football at Garden City Community College after graduating from

There were a couple powerlifters there, and they said I had a bunch of raw talent for the sport.

Unlike the football team, coach Brian Kroll’s soccer team entered the season with a senior-dominated roster — one that had come within arm’s reach of the state semifinals a year before. The Chieftains wouldn’t be denied in 2012, as they rode a nine-game win streak to a 12-3-1 regular season record and clawed their way through the regional tournament. THS punched its state ticket with a quarterfinal win against De Soto, but the success didn’t stop there. Seniors Matt Saathoff and Keaton Truesdell led the team to a 3-1 win against McPherson in the semifinals, guaranteeing Tonganoxie its first state championship appearance in any head-tohead team sport. Kroll will have several voids to fill next season, but plenty of underclassmen logged several varsity minutes in 2012, and the bar has officially been set for future teams. The THS volleyball team had somewhat of a roller coaster season this year, but the Chieftains were at their best when it mattered most. After an up-and-down regular season, coach Tiffany Parker’s team caught fire in the sub-state tournament. Led by se-

record along the way. He squatted a personal-best 700 pounds on his second attempt to go along with 628 pounds in the dead lift and 468 in the bench press. “I had a lot more in me that I didn’t know I had in me,� Frank said. “I had never touched 700 before, but it shot up easier than the first attempt did. It was a nice, small meet. Just something to get my feet wet. There were a couple pro lifters there, but a bunch of raw talent from everybody.� As a high school senior, Frank played on the last THS football team to win a district title — until this season. He earned an All-Kaw Valley League honorable mention following his senior campaign. He was also active on the Chieftain wrestling team. Nowadays, when he’s not lifting or working, Frank said he’s often at the gym for recovery or rehab work.

niors Jenny Whitledge and Madee Walker, THS defeated two higherseeded teams to reach the sub-state championship match. The Chieftains will return plenty of experience to the court next season, as this year’s varsity team included seven underclassmen — three of them freshmen. It was no secret that the 2012 cross country season would be a rebuilding year at THS. However, youth didn’t slow down the Chieftain girls, who received numerous strong performances from a group of freshmen and sophomores. THS missed the state cut in the team ranks, but freshman Sophia Wetta qualified individually with the third-fastest time in school history. Wetta headlines a list of six varsity runners who will return in 2013, so expect even more success from the Chieftains down the road. With more than half of the last year’s boys’ state team gone, coach Phil Williams had some big shoes to fill. Sophomore Garrett French led THS all year, and several young runners gained valuable experience. The team’s run of three straight state appearances may have come to an end, but a new run could begin very soon. If the fall was a sign of things to come for THS in 2012-13, Chieftain fans could still be in for plenty of good things. Congrats to all the fall teams on great seasons, and I look forward to seeing all of you continue to raise the bar next year.

Aunt Norie’s Sewing Room By Eleanor McKee Belts, like anything else fashion-wise, come and go. That handy little belt-making kit, however, can now be hard to find. True, the kit is still on the market, but it just used to be found in several widths, with different buckle choices, on all notion displays. Now, that’s not always so. There are many ways to make belts. Here are some of the methods we used before commercial belting became so readily available: Using a firm fabric (pillow ticking is one), cut it two to four times wider than the finished belt needs to be. Fold it to the needed width. Stitch down its center and on each edge, then stitch down its entire length with a zig zag stitch. Now it’s ready to cover and attach the buckle. Or, simply cut the belt length of dress fabric, plus lap over and seam allowance. To attach the buckle, fold each edge to the center. Now fold again, and you’ll have four thicknesses. Top stitch along each edge, finish the ends and attach the buckle. We also used old belts from discarded dresses and recovered them. However, one does run out of those, too. A shortcut for the waistband of a corduroy skirt: just cut the waistband wider than the waist band pattern, then stitch to the skirt, matching the notches. Fold that extra width down two or three times to the desired width and stitch along each fold as you hold it in place. This will avoid slipping in wearing and laundering, and it makes a firm waistband. I grew up learning so many of these “tricks� before commercial patterns became so readily available. Those first patterns were so hard to use. There were no instructions on the pattern pieces as we have now. There were just holes punched in the pieces. An instruction sheet, like three holes in a certain formation, was placed on the fold, etc. Cut your thread on a slant, now, and give those hugs away. — Aunt Norie, PO Box 265, Tonganoxie, KS 66086; auntnorie@att.net

| Remember When | By Billie Aye

10 years ago: Nov. 6, 2002 Crafty Carving: Dennis Bixby shows Candy Haislip how to carve Santas out of sweet potatoes at Saturday’s school volunteer craft fair held at Tonganoxie Junior High School. Other booths included paintings, quilting, stitching, candy molds and a bake sale. Proceeds help school volunteers pay for supplies for holiday crafts they make with elementary school children. (Caption under picture.) Tonganoxie High School students are heading south this weekend — at least on stage — as they prepare for this year’s musical production, “Oklahoma.” (Shown were students Courtney Hoffhines, Joel Nido, Ariel Dowdle, Devin Hughey, Adam Hamby, Jeffery Dennis, Robert Windler and Todd Davidson.) Death: Orin Schlight, 84, Mission, died Nov. 1, 2002; Services for Marie H. Conway, Aledo, Ill., will be at 11 a.m. Thursday in Aledo. Arlene Wedel stands by the Tree of Life, which is located in the foyer of First State Bank and Trust of Tonganoxie. A part of the display includes photos of hospice patients and comments they’ve made. Wedel is being honored as the 2002 hospice chapter’s volunteer of the year.

25 years ago: Oct. 28, 1987 A ghost, a farmer with pitchfork and a victim are guarding the front yard area at Beth and Jamie Zink’s house on E. 4th Street., waiting for Halloween and trick-or-treaters venturing their way. (Caption.) What a dinner! What a treat! What a good time was had by all! That happened Sunday evening when the Tonganoxie Memorial VFW Post No. 9271 entertained 61 veterans and two drivers from Wadsworth in Leavenworth. This was a fried chicken dinner with all the trimmings, including pie, at the Catholic Church Basement. Last Wednesday, 105 first graders were invited to visit the pumpkin patch owned by Vic and Zena Browning of Linwood. The children enjoyed wandering through the pumpkin patch and learning how Halloween pumpkins are grown. Before they left, each child was allowed to choose a pumpkin to take home free of charge. Students and teachers had a great time and appreciate the efforts and generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Browning. Deaths: Rita H. Young, 53, Kansas City, Mo., died Oct. 21, 198; Stella Miller, 83, McLouth, died Oct. 25, 1987; Arthur R. Flewelling, 56, Tonganoxie, died Oct. 21, 1987; Henry J. Brune, 74, Leavenworth, died Oct. 17, 1987; Louisa E. Joplin, 86, McLouth, died Monday at her home.

50 years ago: Nov. 15, 1962 A former Linwood young mother and her 11-month-old son lost their lives Monday night in the crash of a plane near Overland Park. They are Mrs. Olive Ann Ladd, 24, and Mark

William, both of Springfield, Mo. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Penrose, RR 2, Bonner Springs, will hold open house from 2 to 4 Nov. 18, at their home, honoring their golden wedding anniversary. Deaths: L. F. Montgomery, 70, Kansas City, Kan., died Nov. 6; Miss Ella R. O’Brien, Denver, passed away Nov. 9; Sherman B. Harris, formerly of Tonganoxie, died Saturday night at his home in Topeka. Linwood: Services were held at the Methodist Church Nov. 5 for Mr. Art Baird, who died Nov. 3, at his home in Hiawatha. Mr. Baird lived most of his life in Linwood. Reno: Mr. Russell Rose suffered an injury to his eye Friday and is hospitalized at KU Medical Center.

75 years ago: Oct. 21, 1937 Geologists engaged in searches for crude oil and field paleontologists searching for fossil remains of ancient eastern Kansas times, have noted, especially in the Tonganoxie and McLouth area, that a preponderance of marine life has been found. (Some remains were found on the Murr farm.) Born to Mr. and Mrs. William McGee Oct. 14, a daughter named Barbara Ann. From “It Happened in Kansas” by F. A. Cooper: The first school in Larned was held in a saloon. Pupils sat on beer kegs and the teacher’s desk was the bar … James Montgomery was responsible for the Kansas nickname, Jayhawker. In 1859, he organized an army of Kansans as a protection against the pro-slavery raiders. These men were called Jayhawkers by the raiders because Jayhawker, at that time, meant thief. During the Civil War, the name was applied to all Kansas soldiers and finally became established as the Kansas nickname.

100 years ago: Oct. 31, 1912 About 9 a.m. Monday, Frank Fairchild was tossed by a Holstein bull on his upper farm one mile west of town and the injuries he received rendered him unconscious for 20 minutes. It is just about a year since Mr. Fairchild had his bad fall from a silo which has left him crippled up. He seems to be unlucky about getting into accidents and lucky in escaping with his life. James Cook will start a milk route tomorrow and will deliver milk in Tonganoxie. It is his intention to make a uniform price of 20 milk tickets for one dollar. Monday C. H. Cain commenced breaking ground for a store building on the vacant lot where the Kirby drug store formerly was located. The building will be brick and will be 70 feet long. When the building, which will be one story high, is completed, Mr. Cain will move his drugstore into it. The population of this township is making a satisfactory increase. Births the past two weeks have been as follows: The 15th a boy at Ivan Sechrest’s, the 16th a girl at Wm. Niebaum’s, the 20th a girl at Enoch Worland’s and the 16th a boy at George Cline’s.
