BY TRAVIS FISCHER Area residents packed City Hall in Mason City April 5 to offer support and opposition prior to the council’s vote on a development agreement with Prestage Foods to build a new pork processing plant south of town.

The has project has become the talk of the area since its announcement last month. The council meeting began with Chad Schreck, president and CEO of the North Iowa Corridor Economic Development Corporation, who has been working with Prestage Farms to get the project going.

Schreck answered questions about the project and its potential economic impact on the area, noting that along with the 992 jobs the plant will need, the new business will encourage growth in related areas such as trucking and cold storage.

“There’s a lot of ancillary businesses that will follow right along,” said Schreck.

The publicity from the project has also been conductive to economic growth, generating increased attention from other businesses looking at Mason City.

Latimer exploring options for former grocery store

BY NICK PEDLEY Officials in Latimer are contemplating the future of the former Corner Market building on Akir Street.

Landon and Anne Plagge are in the process of purchasing the property from Gary and Jan Stratmann, who operated a grocery store there until 2014. The Plagges plan to donate the building to Latimer Development once they take ownership in June to ensure the property reaches its full potential.

“Right now, we’re trying to figure out what’s best for the town. We don’t want it to be a storage building,” said Landon Plagge. “We’d like to see this location be a business.

There’s a lot of options.”

Plagge said the best plan might be to knock the building down and start over. It needs significant renovations, he said, which could hinder a new business from moving in.

The Plagges said they would like to see a mix of rental housing and commercial property built in place of the current building. The couple co-owns Latimer Community Grocery and is heavily involved in the community, and they want to see it

Landon and Anne Plagge (right) plan to donate the building to Latimer Development, which will then create plans for the property.

CAL board decides on JH athletics

BY NICK PEDLEY The CAL Board of Education voted to continue sharing junior high athletics with Hampton-Dumont during its meeting Monday night.

The added transportation expenses associated with trips to Clarion also rankled some feathers. Parent Shawn Hill said it didn’t make sense to essentially double the cost of transporting junior high student athletes to Clarion when Hampton is only 10 miles away.

BY NICK PEDLEY A plan that would have increased law enforcement at local recreation parks and wildlife areas was sacked recently due to a lack of interest from county officials.

Franklin County Conservation Director Jason Gooder was exploring options to make his employees part-time reserve officers with the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office.

The conservation department has received multiple reports of illegal hunting, fishing and other infractions over the past year, and Gooder believed an increased police presence would help curb unlawful activity.

However, Gooder said last week that concerns about the county attorney’s willingness to prosecute violators led him to pull the plug on the plan, which would have cost around $20,000 to implement.

“Do you spend that money on law enforcement, or do you take that money and invest it in one of our parks?” Gooder asked. “Everyone was kind of in consensus that it would be money better spent invested into our parks.”

Waverly woman charged in nursing home incidents

H-D receives $24K for STEM programs

The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office on April 5 arrested Shanda Shears, 44, of Waverly, on a warrant for three counts of Possession of a Controlled Substance, two counts of Dependent Abuse and one count of Tampering with Records.

Shears worked as a nurse at the Rehabilitation Center of Hampton and is alleged to have stolen pain medication from residents. According to a statement from ABCM Corp., which operates the Rehabilitation Center of Hampton, Shears was an employee of GrapeTree Medical Staffing at the time of the alleged incidents. GrapeTree is a pool agency that provides health care workers to hospitals and nursing homes when facilities are short staffed.

Shears was arrested and placed on $10,000 bond, cash or surety. She later posted bail and was released.

She is also charged with similar crimes in Hardin County.

BY NICK PEDLEY A pair of grants will help finance two new courses for Hampton-Dumont students interested in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

The Iowa Governor’s STEM Advisory Council recently awarded H-D two STEM Scale-Up Program grants totaling $24,000. The grants will be used to implement the new Principles of Biomedical Sciences and Introduction to Computer Science classes at the high school, which are both part of the rigorous Project Lead the Way STEM curriculum.

Van Tompkins, who will teach Principles of Biomedical Sciences next year, said the two courses would not be possible without the grant money.

“The necessary training, equipment and perishables would cost too much to get the classes off the

ground,” he wrote in an email. “[The classes] are fantastic preparation for students thinking they would like to have a STEM-related career. They provide a window that shows the students what some of those careers might be like.”

According to a news release, students in Principles of Biomedical Sciences will explore concepts of biology and medicine to determine factors that led to the death of a fictional person. Students will examine autopsy reports, investigate medical history and explore procedures that might have prolonged the person’s life. The activities and projects will introduce students to human physiology, basic biology, medicine and research processes while allowing them to design their own experiments.

Tompkins said the class will “offer advanced problem solving through acquired scientific and technical knowledge and practice.”

A survey was taken to gauge interest in the course before the grant application was submitted, which yielded positive results.

“Many students seemed to be interested,” Tompkins said. “These classes tend to draw the scientifically motivated kids.”

The second class, Introduction

to Computer Science, will be taught

by Matt Lokenvitz and is designed for students who have never programmed before.

Students will work in teams to create apps for mobile devices using a special program. They will explore the impact of computing in society and build skills in digital citizenship and cybersecurity. Beyond learning the fundamentals of programming, students will build computational thinking skills by applying computer science to collaboration tools, modeling and simulation and data analysis.

Additionally, students transfer the understanding of programming to a text-based programming platform and apply their knowledge to create algorithms for games of chance and strategy.

Both classes will begin next year.

Tompkins appreciated the grant money and also applauded school counselor Tricia Christiansen’s effort to apply for extra funding.

“Judging by the designated money, there were several districts that could have an opportunity to receive more than one award,” he said. “If you never ask, you never get, and Tricia must have hit the right tone in the [applications].”

A Bradford man with a vast knowledge of trees and a passion for volunteering received a huge honor last week in Des Moines.

Randy Sanders was honored April 7 with the Outstanding Volunteer Award by the Iowa Urban Tree Council. The presentation was made at the 26th Annual Urban Forestry Awards Luncheon.

“Randy Sanders is an outstanding example of Iowa’s community forestry volunteers,” State Forester Paul Tauke said in a news release. “The numerous projects he has worked on and helped spearhead will benefit his community and enhance forest resources for future generations.”

Sanders is a longtime advocate for trees in Franklin County.

He is a driving force and founding member of the Hampton City Tree Board. Since his full-time involvement, more than 200 trees have been planted in Hampton and the city has become a Tree City USA with modified planting ordinances.

Sanders has worked with the Franklin Conservation Board, personally cutting and removing invasive species, doing woodland tree improvements, planting trees on mutually managed bike trails, and installing and monitoring more than 70 bluebird houses between Franklin and Hardin counties. In his spare time, he can be found at local schools teaching children how to plant trees and the importance of trees in their communities.

BY NICK PEDLEY Volunteers with Geneva Community Betterment (GCB) were treated to a disappointing surprise last weekend at the old school auditorium.

Broken glass caused by vandals sprinkled the building’s floor when GCB members entered Sunday to prepare for their upcoming fundraising event. Windows, light fixtures and other items were all destroyed in the mayhem, which came as a surprise to GCB Vice President Tonya Sanders.

“The worst part is that the few things that we salvaged from the building are now destroyed,” she said. “Some of the history we wanted to preserve and display is now gone.”

Sanders figured damage estimates were well over $1,000. GCB has held numerous fundraisers to raise money for renovations at the old auditorium, which will now be delayed while the group raises more money to make up for the damages.

Some of the items broken during the incident included new replacement glass for the building.

“It’s disappointing not only because things were broken, but because everybody involved in The Market put so much effort into

Some of the history we wanted to preserve and display is now gone... Everyone’s just really disappointed.

- Tonya Sanders, GCB Vice President raising the money for this,” Sanders said. “It’s disappointing when that much hard work gets ruined by something like this.”

The Market, GCB’s main fundraiser for the school auditorium renovations, will be held May 6-7 at Mayne’s Grove south of Hampton.

GCB hopes to completely restore the auditorium so it can host future Market fundraisers and other community events there.

No arrests or charges had been made as of Monday morning, but Sanders said the group had a good idea who did the damage. The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the incident.

Sanders said the group will forge ahead despite the setback.

“Everyone’s just really disappointed,” she said.

FORGOTTEN FACES • Photos of local WWII vets sought

BY NICK PEDLEY A Dutch group is seeking photos of three Franklin County men who died in Europe during World War II. “Faces of Margraten,” a Netherlands-based project that honors those buried or listed at the American War Cemetery and Memorial in Margraten, has collected photos of roughly one-third of the 10,023 U.S. soldiers buried there. The group is in its second round of photo collec-

tion and is asking the public’s help in finding pictures of three local men: Lewis Fredricks, Wilbert Honeck and Robert Schear.

Fredricks was 25 when his bomber was attacked by enemy fighters and crashed into the North Sea on Feb. 4, 1943. According to the “Faces of Margraten” website, Fredricks was from Franklin County and was the son of Henry and Clara Fredricks.

He was a Staff Sergeant waist gunner in the 323rd Bomber Squadron. He is listed on the Walls of the Missing at the cemetery.

Honeck, from the Hampton area, was 32 when he was killed in action on Nov. 19, 1944 in Euchen, Germany. He was the son of Will and Anna Honeck and served as Private First Class in the 120th Infantry Regiment.

Schear, from Geneva, was 21 when he died Nov. 30, 1945. He is listed on the Walls of the Missing.

No information about Schear’s death

was available. He was the son of Tom and Lourena Schear and served in the 1st Infantry Division.

In addition to using the photos for a tribute at the cemetery in May, images will also be stored in the Fields of Honor Database. Here, information and photos can be found on thousands of American soldiers who are buried in Margraten.

To submit a photo of one of the three veterans, visit www. thefacesofmargraten.com. The soldier database can be visited at www. fieldsofhonor-database.com.

LATIMER GOLF CLUB

The revamped menu will offer multiple dishes for both hungry golfers and regular diners alike. NICK PEDLEY/HAMPTON CHRONICLE

“I’ve cooked and she’s waitressed and bartended, but we’re both new to running a restaurant,” said Mike. “It’s been a learning experience so far.”

The Jorgensens decided to jump on board with the idea a month ago. Since then, they’ve been busy lining up vendors, getting licensed and prepping the restaurant for the upcoming golfing season.

“It’s been an absolute whirlwind over the past month,” Mike said.

The restaurant and bar opened April 1 to a large crowd of hungry guests. Jorgensen revamped the menu with new dishes like steaks, pasta and grilled chicken in addition to traditional

items like burgers and fries.

Smoked meats like pork loin will also be available depending on the weather. The Jorgensens were still fine-tuning the menu to cater to local tastes.

“We’re going with what the customers want,” said Kathy. “We’re still adjusting and welcome to suggestions.”

The restaurant has received positive feedback from the Latimer community since it opened two weeks ago. Mike said the biggest obstacle has been getting the word out that they’re open.

“A lot of people think the golf course and club-

house are for members only, but they’re not,” he said. “We’re open to the public, and anyone can come play a round or grab something to eat.”

The Jorgensens were excited to meet the community and encouraged people to give the revamped menu a try. The restaurant will be open Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday from 11 a.m.-8 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m.-9 p.m.

“The people here have been very welcoming, friendly and supportive of our business,” Kathy said. “It has been great getting started and having that support.”

CONSERVATION DEPT.

LATIMER BUILDING

Gooder said that a recent vandalism case soured attitudes about the plan. Last summer, a group of teens defaced multiple county parks and the Rolling Prairie Trail, resulting in more than $15,000 in damages and cleanup fees. The culprits were given suspended sentences and placed on probation, which disappointed conservation department staff.

“If you just look at the time we had invested in that to try to catch them, the money we spent to clean it up, and then at the end of the case it was essentially just all null,” he said.

“It was unfortunate.”

Gooder’s plan would have given conservation employees authority to enforce state outdoor recreation laws thoughout Franklin County.

Currently, only sheriff’s deputies and DNR law enforcement officers can issue citations for illegal hunting and another activities. Oftentimes, officers are unable to respond to calls because they’re busy with other duties or too far away.

Gooder said his department will continue the status quo following the recent development. Employees can check fishing and hunting licenses and also ban people from county parks if they don’t follow the law. Educating the public about rules also helps curb illegal activity, Gooder said, but he expected problems to persist despite added efforts to stop it.

For now, the conservation department will continue working with the sheriff’s office to combat violators.

“The deputies continue to be good about supporting us and being there when they can,” Gooder said. “We’re just going to keep going down that road.”

The property is the only commercial space currently available downtown and Peter believed it was important to keep pushing forward in the name of progress.

“People have made their livings in this building, but I think it’s time to start over rather than letting it sit,” he said. “There are some communities that have buildings that are going to sit forever until they fall down. We want to get ahead of it.”

Though the future of the property is still somewhat up in the air, the Plagges and Peter were optimistic about its potential. They said quality rental housing and commercial property could be an investment in the future viability of Latimer.

“The only way to move forward in a small community like this is to be willing to change and allow new things,” said Anne. “Long term, you have to consider your community and think about what it’s going to look like 50 years from now.”

Her husband agreed, and encouraged feedback from the community as plans move forward. Landon, who also serves on the Latimer City Council, said the community’s future success depended on today’s investments.

“We don’t want Latimer to be a ghost town,” he said. “We want to see a vibrant downtown.”

PORK PLANT “Since this has gone public, you wouldn’t believe the number of offers that have come in,” said Schreck.

Dr. Ron Prestage, one of the three owners of Prestage Farms, also answered questions council members had about the project. Prestage was asked about the workforce the new facility would require, the environmental impact the facility might have on the area, and whether there are enough hogs in the area to keep the processing facility operational.

On the workforce, Prestage said that while there will be some traditional line jobs, the advancements in technology will require a high technical aptitude for many of the jobs in the new plant.

“There’s a lot less line people in these high-tech plants than there would have been in a plant that was built a few decades ago,” said Prestage.

Likewise, Prestage is confident that the technology used in a modern facility will minimize any ecological risk.

On the matter of supply, Prestage said that his company already owns enough hogs to supply the requirements for half a shift. He also said he has reached out to other suppliers that can meet the needs for a full shift or more once the plant is up and running.

“There’s a misconception that a new plant means there’s a requirement for new farms to supply it,” said Prestage. “That is absolutely not true.”

In spite of Prestage’s assurances to the contrary, many of the Mason City residents speaking against the plant remained convinced that it would invite new hog confinements into the area.

Younger commentators in particular expressed their concerns about the welfare of the hogs used in pork production and the environmental issues that follow large confinement operations. They also questioned whether the facility would provide the kind of jobs that will keep Iowa’s youth in the area.

It wasn’t simply the young voicing opposition to the project. Men and women of all ages spoke out with concerns about the impact a spike in population would have on property values, secondary roads, the education system and crime rate. Some

worried that by embracing this business, it would discourage Fortune 500 companies from doing business in Mason City in the future.

There was also a feeling among the dissenters that the project was moving ahead too quickly and without enough public input, vocalized by former Mason City Council Member Max Weaver.

“The big word tonight is transparency,” said Weaver. “It’s not happening here.”

The crowd wasn’t entirely against the project though. Several residents spoke in favor of the facility, pointing out that the community has a habit of complaining about the lack of jobs until an outside company comes in to create new ones. Concerns about smells and environmental risks were also countered with observations that the Mason City area is already home to a number of agricultural and industrial businesses.

Some area farmers were supportive as well, with one small pork producer excited about the possibility of the area gaining a new buyer for his hogs.

Following the public forum, the council members themselves weighed in, most expressing at least tentative support for the project.

“No job is perfect. That’s why they call it a job. It’s work,” said Council Member Travis Hickey.

“We live in north Iowa. We are an

agricultural-based state. We are an agriculture-based community.

I think this is truly an opportunity that will help us grow in the future.”

Council Member John Lee felt the project was a great way to stimulate economic development in Mason City and surrounding communities.

“If we say no to this, what’s the plan of growth?” he asked. “Because whatever we’re doing, it hasn’t been working.”

The council voted unanimously to give their support for development of agreement terms with Prestage Foods during the meeting, however, this is by no means the end of the process. Two additional public hearings will be held on April 21 and May 3 before the project receives city approval.

CHRONICLE EDITORIAL

Complicating the convention This year’s unpredictable election cycle seems poised to become even more convoluted when Republicans gather for the 2016 National Convention later this summer.

The GOP, already troubled by inter-party turmoil and voter unrest, is headed towards its first brokered convention since 1976. Neither Donald Trump nor Ted Cruz seems capable of gaining enough delegates to win the nomination outright, which will force a decision by party leadership later this summer. Though some Trump supporters have already cried out against the process, it’s how the system works sometimes.

The brokered convention is undoubtedly strange. It seemingly works to circumvent the will of the people by deciding the party’s nomination through closed-door compromises in the proverbial “smoke-filled rooms.” However, modern rules give at least some transparency to the process. Gone are the days of party bosses and other sketchy deals, but there’s still some degree of crookedness about the whole process. If one candidate already has a majority of votes and delegates from the primary elections, why pick someone else?

No matter who Republicans select, they might face tough odds in the general election. If they pick Cruz over Trump, the party risks losing Trump’s supporters, who very well might not vote altogether if he’s not on the ticket. Conversely, Cruz’s chances could be slim due to his previous record in Washington. Not many colleagues were keen on the Texas senator when he entered the race and have only endorsed him in an attempt to slow Trump’s momentum.

The Democrats are no shining light, either. Hillary Clinton still can’t shake Bernie Sanders, but most pundits believe she’ll be the nominee despite Sanders’ recent surge.

The math simply doesn’t add up for the self-proclaimed “Democratic socialist,” but he seems content to drag it out as long as possible nonetheless.

No matter which side you sit on, this year’s election has been a doozey. A brokered Republican convention will no doubt leave the party divided, but that’s no different than where it’s at now. The convention will be a fitting end to a rather indescribable election cycle that has been defined as the unpredictable and unprecedented.

Spring, someday April’s blustery conditions and cool temps have given us a rather chilly introduction to spring this year. It’s been too cold or too rainy to do anything outside, and we even got a few snowflakes last week. Iowa’s weather once again proved itself to be as unpredictable as always.

Despite the unfavorable conditions, there’s still plenty going on beyond your front yard right now. Spring sports are in full swing throughout the state. Track meets are plentiful, tennis courts are bustling, and golf courses are getting hacked this way and that. It’s a busy time of the year and the events are worth watching if you’re up to the elements.

Baseball season is also in full swing with fans returning to Major League parks across the country. Though Iowa is void of its own pro team, many of our adopted franchises are poised for promising seasons this summer. The Cubs, Cardinals and Royals all return post season-caliber lineups, while the Twins are hoping to leap into the playoffs after an exciting 2015 campaign. There’s still a lot of baseball to be played, but it seems Iowa’s sports fans have a lot to look forward to.

Of course, there are plenty of other activities going on to keep you busy. Franklin County and the surrounding area have plenty of great recreational parks, trails and other attractions for you to appreciate this spring. We’ve been cooped up for long enough – get out there and enjoy it!

Community colleges are key to expanding Iowa’s middle class THE RAGAN REPORT

Amanda Ragan Iowa’s community colleges play a big role in expanding our middle class by helping more Iowans gain the knowledge and skills they need to fill jobs, further their education and enhance their quality of life.

Mason City schools established Iowa’s first two-year educational institution in 1918. By 1930, at least 32 Iowa communities had organized junior colleges as part of their public school systems.

In 1965, the Legislature merged many of these junior colleges – now known as community colleges – and established financial support through student tuition, as well as federal, state and local funds. At

TODAY, COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS INCLUDE: • 64,235 Iowans taking courses to get an associate’s degree or to transfer to a four-year college or university.

• 27,742 Iowans enrolled in career and technical education (CTE) programs that prepare them for skilled jobs.

• 33,145 high school students earning their first college credits. High schoolers now make up more than a third of community college students, up 5.4 percent from last year.

• 232,480 Iowans participating in non-credit programs and courses that teach basic personal and academic skills, prepare people to enter the workforce, provide technical training for specific job opportunities and allow citizens to pursue special interests. the time, these colleges had 9,110 students. Fifty years later, enrollment is 10 times that. In 2015, Iowa’s community colleges educated and trained more than 93,000 Iowans.

Because they do so much for Iowans, businesses, communities and our economy, community colleges deserve our support. For more on all the good things community colleges

do in Iowa, see the 2015 Community College Annual Report on the Iowa Department of Education website.

Unprecedented oversight We started last week with a demonstration of new lighting for the State Capitol Building. Musco Sports Lighting, based out of Oskaloosa, has graciously donated this new lighting to replace the decades-old equipment that the Capitol currently uses. The state will only have to pay for installation of the new lighting system, which is more energy efficient and will save the state money on energy costs. The new lights make the Capitol look more beautiful than before!

This week, the House released our oversight plan for Medicaid Modernization. Our approach will require an unprecedented amount of data and reporting, from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the Iowa Department of Human Services (DHS) and the three managed care organizations (MCOs), to be submitted to the Legislature for review. This will provide legislators with a wide assortment of figures and information on the Medicaid program that has never been available in the past.

This plan ensures that consumers are protected, patient health and financial outcomes are monitored and transparent, and the integrity of our health care system remains.

Consumer protections Medicaid patients must be able to have access to protections and advocates when needed to ensure that they are receiving the high-quality health care that they expect. Our plan requires that the Legislature receive reports on consumer protections like: • Customer service satisfaction including call center performance, grievances and appeals filed, and how timely issues are resolved with

UNDER THE GOLDEN DOME, TOO

Linda Upmeyer DHS and the MCOs; • The number of doctors and providers that are available to patients to ensure adequate access; • The total number of Medicaid patients and how that changes over time.

Healthy outcomes One of the main goals of Medicaid Modernization is to promote wellness and healthy living. However, we need a way to track whether or not people are becoming healthier, which was never part of the old Medicaid system. As part of our plan, the Legislature will receive detailed reports on outcomes like: • Annual health care effectiveness data to ensure that patients are becoming healthier; • Specific reporting on vulnerable Medicaid patients like those with special needs, behavioral issues and the elderly; • The percentage of claims paid and denied to confirm that patients are receiving the care they need; • Cost savings to the Medicaid program including the amount spent on medical care versus administrative costs.

Program integrity Finally, federal, state and contractual safeguards are in place for Medicaid Modernization to prevent, detect and eliminate fraud, waste

and abuse. Even with all of these protections, the Legislature will be monitoring to ensure efficient and effective use of tax dollars and will be able to act on any cases of fraud or abuse.

Equally important is that all of this information will be made public online for Iowans to view. This provides a level of transparency that the Medicaid program has never before seen. While patient-specific information will not be made public, aggregate data and summaries will be available in an easy to read format so that Iowans can also review the information themselves.

This plan offers Iowans the assurance that the health care of Iowa’s most vulnerable are not being put in jeopardy. As the new system continues to roll out, House Republicans will keep a watchful eye on the transition to ensure that Iowans continue to receive the care that they count on.

One final note is that this week the House and Senate agreed to joint budget targets for the 2017 fiscal year budget. The agreed upon amount is lower than both ongoing revenue and the state’s expenditure limitation, totaling $7.35 billion.

This budget agreement continues to stand by House Republicans’ budget principles of spending less than the state collects and not using one-time funding to pay for ongoing needs.

This spending plan will allow us to invest in the priorities of Iowans in a responsible way.

I enjoy politics. Largely because it gives me a chance to apply all the things I’ve learned reading X-Men comics over the years.

For instance, when most people think of opposing ideologies regarding the X-Men, they probably think of Professor Xavier and Magneto. After all, they’ve been going at it since the very first issue back in 1963.

Across all mediums, you can count on any adaptation of the X-Men starting with these two genuinely wanting the best for their people, but going about in drastically different ways. Magneto wants to consolidate mutants into a group powerful enough to protect them from any would-be aggressors.

Xavier would rather see mutants assimilate into the larger society.

As leaders of their respective philosophies, their relationship mirrors that of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. Except with super powered battles and a lot more property destruction.

But while we’ll continue to see this dynamic explored in movie adaptations, no doubt including the upcoming “X-Men: Apocalypse,” it’s not something that’s been used in the comics for a long time.

Sure, the X-Men comics still center around mutants fighting each other over differing philosophies, but Xavier and Magneto are no longer key components in that discussion. I don’t recall exactly when it happened, but there is a powerful scene where Xavier and Magneto realize that their disagreements don’t matter anymore. The world they fought to shape has moved on without them.

I wonder if that’s how the Republican and Democrat establishment feels right about now.

The Republican party is currently dividing its energy between subverting the will of the American people by refusing to hold confirmation hearings on Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland and figuring out how to subvert the will of their own base by making sure Donald Trump doesn’t secure enough delegates to win their nomination.

Ironically, the GOP’s best hope to stop Trump is Ted Cruz, who was previously considered the worst case scenario for the establishment before Trump raised (or lowered) the bar.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, who once happily joked about the idea of Cruz being killed on the Senate floor, is now endorsing him because, in his own words, the poison of Cruz is preferable to the bullet that is Trump.

In Graham’s recent appearance on the Daily Show he has the attitude of a man standing on the deck of the Titanic, bitterly resigned to his fate.

No matter who wins the Republican Primary, Graham and his ilk are certain to lose.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the aisle, Hillary Clinton’s role as the future Democratic standard bearer is still being challenged by a man who has only technically been a Democrat since last November.

While Clinton still holds a lead over Sanders, this is a fight nobody expected she’d have to work so hard to win. Her nomination may be complicated by the shocking number of Sanders supporters that would sooner vote Trump over Clinton.

We tend to think of politics as a matter of “left and right.” By that measure, you’d have Bernie Sanders on the left, Hillary Clinton and John Kasich in the middle, and Ted Cruz on the right. You’d expect voters to gravitate towards the candidate closest to their own place on the line.

But Trump’s cannonball into the political waters seems to have tilted the political axis. A not insignificant number of voters with different priorities have begun to emerge and they’re changing rules of the game.

The GOP was already facing an ideological crisis before this shift added a new dimension to the conf lict. If they manage to subvert Trump at the convention, it could very well result in an open revolt that irreparably sunders the party.

The Democrats aren’t at that point yet, but the Sanders campaign has tapped into that same vein of anti-establishment feelings, particularly from young voters who feel their interests aren’t represented by either party. Sanders speaks to millennials that didn’t grow up indoctrinated with Cold War propaganda and thus don’t have a reflexive negative reaction to the word “socialism.”

In both cases, party leadership will either have to adapt or risk being left behind as the country moves on without either of them.

LOOKING BACK

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2016

by Joyce Schomburg

Fifty Years Ago April 14, 1966 Mrs. Emma Pearse, 91 years of age, has served the Hampton Chronicle and the residents of the Geneva area for nearly 50 years in her role as correspondent for that community.

The exact year in which Mrs. Pearse started writing the Geneva news for the Chronicle isn’t known, even by Mrs. Pearse. Some detective work by people in Geneva has set the date about 1918.

Miss Clara Graff and Mrs. Selma Rash accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Loran Cooper, of Dows, to the Duane Schuldt home, near Waverly, where they spent Saturday evening. They made the acquaintance of the Schuldts baby daughter.

Van Renoe, of Lincoln, Nebraska, spent the Easter weekend with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W.I. Renoe, and his sister, Miss Nancy Renoe, who was home for the Easter vacation last week from the University of Iowa, at Iowa City.

Forty Years Ago April 15, 1976 Above are three of the approximately 40 persons who participated in Monday night’s needs assessment survey for the Hampton Community schools and they are Dorothy Seehusen, Marilyn Jurgena and Peggy

Varrelman. Participants selected and ranked educational priorities, then ranked how they feel the school is fulfilling these priorities. Results will be tabulated and announced later by AEA 2 coordinator Gary Goodwin.

Mrs. Edith Fritz of Latimer entertained at a morning coffee Thursday. Those ladies attending were Mrs. Evelyn Crecelius, Mrs. Etta Bruns, Mrs. Cindy Henning and daughter, Heather, Mrs. Katie Kinseth and daughter, Verda Lee, Mrs. Kathy Steding and two children, Mrs. Carol Lubkeman and two children and Mrs. Pearl Clark.

In honor of the confirmation of Charles Thielen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Duane Thielen of Hampton, and Brent Thielen, son of Mr. and Mrs. William Thielen of Latimer, a dinner was held on Palm Sunday at the home of the William Thielens. Those present were Mrs. Richard Thielen, Marjorie Thielen, Mr. and Mrs. Duane Thielen, Kim and Charles, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Shear, Dixie and Dawn, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Swieter and Brenda all of Hampton, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Swieter of Hansell, Mr. and Mrs. LaVerne Thielen, Janae, David Wilson and Janelle Thielen all of Cedar Falls, Mr. and Mrs. Greg Bakker, Grayne of Coulter, Mr. and Mrs. Gayhart Thielen, Annette, Kurt and Shereen, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Jurgens, Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Lohrbach, Michael Lohrbach, Mr. and Mrs. William Thielen and Brent.

at Beeds Lake, and was rewarded with his first catch of the 1986 season as he snagged this small largemouth bass. Woods threw the fish back to grow up a bit, and gave some other angler a reason to smile.

Honorary Chapter Farmers— Dale Mollenbeck and Eugene Jorgensen were named honorary Chapter Farmers by the CAL Community chapter of the Future Farmers of America. Also honored, but not pictured, was Marge Anderson.

Twenty tenants of Heritage Place, along with three guests, were treated to an ice cream and cake party Sunday night, April 13. The host and hostess were John Lange and Marilyn Bechtel, whose birthday were the following day. The entire evening was enjoyed by all.

Twenty Years Ago April 11, 1996 Melvin Menning of rural Allison cleans up a flower garden around the home of his cousin, Tillie Kruger of Dumont, Tuesday morning.

Warm temperatures brought a lot of folks outside this week to do some spring clean-up work.

Sunday, March 31, Mr. and Mrs. Mike Roegner and three boys of Plymouth, Robert Roegner, Mary O’Loughlin and Alice Wolvers of Geneva, Robert Wolvers, Marge and Krystal of Hampton went to Des Moines to attend confirmation for Annie Wolvers daughter of Steve Wolvers from Des Moines. They also had dinner there after the confirmation.

H-D lefty Keely Mulford pitches for the flag on number nine during Tuesday’s golf meet in Ackley. Mulford got off to a slow start in her first

full round of the season, but finished strong to score 49.

Ten Years Ago April 12, 2006 Hampton-Dumont second graders Jose Cornejo, Lauren Dirksen, and Brianna Viet belt out a tune along with the rest of their class during the H-D second and third grade spring concert Thursday at the middle school auditorium.

H-D won the meet with 116 points.

Five Year Ago April 13, 2011 When the Geneva Post Office closed its doors at the end of last Wednesday, April 6, there were spray painted demarcations of where to put rural roadside mailboxes. Underground lines were marked for Iowa One-Call. Residents of the town of 165 were informed Tuesday of the decision to close the post office, by mail, in a letter dated Monday, April 4. In the letter, Tom

Allen, manager of post office operation in Des Moines, called the decision an “emergency suspended close of business,” saying, “This change is tentative and will not lead to a formal proposal unless we conclude that it will provide a maximum degree of regular and effective postal services.”

Hundreds went to jail on Friday as the Franklin County Sheriff’s Department hosted an open house celebrating the completion of the new Franklin County Law Enforcement Center. The result of several years of planning and saving, the new facility has been a longstanding project for the county. Repurposing the old Park School building, the county was able to both save money and give new use to an unused building by converting it into the new facility.

Directors re-elected to serve on Franklin REC’s board are Gordon Meyer of Latimer, Dwight Ellingson of Iowa Falls, and Clarence Moore of Hampton. More than 300 members amd guests attended the meeting at the Franklin County Convention Center, which included a catered meal by We-3.

Hill was also displeased about pulling students out of the classroom earlier to attend practices in Clarion.

“What’s more important? Their education or middle school athletics?” he asked. “We’re already making relationships between [H-D and CAL] that far outreach middle school athletics. We have none of those relationships with C-G-D.” Activities Director Scott Striegel tried to quell some of the concerns and explain the reasoning behind moving the junior high program to C-G-D. Low participation numbers in junior high sports has led to low numbers in the high school programs at CAL. Striegel was concerned that the district’s relationship with H-D could be affecting those numbers and leading some students to not participate.

“The numbers show that it’s not working,” he said.

Superintendent Steve Lane pointed out that nobody could definitively prove whether moving the junior high program to C-G-D would boost participation num-

bers. Striegel agreed, but still felt changing schools could help bolster participation.

Board Member Austin Elling addressed worries over the cost of transportation. Travel expenses for junior high athletics wasn’t as big of a concern as some might think, he said, also noting that it wasn’t a driving force behind next year’s property tax increase.

“Don’t tie them together,” Elling said.

Despite the assurances, some guests remained uneasy over the added travel expenses and the district’s future financial situation.

“I cannot wrap my mind around going to a district that’s twice as far away if we don’t have a guarantee that more kids are going to go out if we share with that district,” said Hill.

Ultimately, the board voted unanimously to continue sharing junior high athletics with H-D. “We can make wonderful relationships with any district we go with, but for economic reasons, I’m in favor of going east to Hamp-

ton-Dumont,” said Carlson.

CAL’s current sharing agreement with C-G-D for varsity football and cross country will remain in tact for the upcoming seasons.

• Approves budget In other business, the board certified the Fiscal Year 2017 budget.

The district’s property tax levy will climb to $13.36 per $1,000 of valuation under the budget, up more than a dollar from the previous year.

However, it essentially makes up for last year’s decrease.

The levy was certified at $12.19 in 2015, but dipped lower when the Iowa Legislature approved a 1.25 percent funding increase for K-12 schools. The board had initially planned for a 0 percent increase in state aid.

Even though the increase might seem sizeable, board members pointed out the levy is still on par with neighboring districts. CAL will be able to continue offering existing programs under the new rate without making staff cuts or reducing classroom offering, they said.

CAL fifth graders host “Night of the Notables”

County Clover Kids and 4-H’er workshops at Harriman-Nielsen Historic Farm

CAL fifth grade students held their annual “Night of the Notables” performance on Tuesday, March 22.

The historic reenactment featured 22 hardworking students portrayed as famous notables like Bill Gates, Teddy Roosevelt and Rosa Parks.

Students opened up the night in the CAL auditorium, where they gave first-person speeches dressed in full costume that detailed each character’s achievements. Students then showed off displays in the gymnasium that described the life of each notable. The exhibits included a Power Point slideshow and a news article that students had written about their notable.

Fifth grade teacher Mardy Schaefer was pleased with the students’ effort and called the night “a big success.”

“The students demonstrated great research skills, strong work ethic and superior speaking skills that all contributed to the success of the event,” she said.

Youth in grades K-12 are invited to the Harriman-Nielsen Historic Farm in Hampton on Saturday, April 30 from 9-10:30 a.m.

Hampton receives Tree City USA Award Hampton was honored with the 2015 Tree City USA Award April 7 at the 26th Annual Community Forestry Awards Luncheon in Des Moines. The award was presented by the Arbor Day Foundation and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources Forestry Bureau at the Forte Banquet & Conference Center.

Hampton Tree Board members Randy Sanders and Jim Garrett were on hand to accept the award from Paul Tauke, Iowa State Forester, and Bruce Trautman, deputy director of the Iowa Department of Natural Resources.

“The Tree City USA Award is a symbol for communities who have made a commitment to the management

of public trees,” said Tauke. “Hampton has provided an outstanding example for other Iowa communities by enhancing our forest resources and demonstrating the great value of trees in providing multiple benefits for future generations.”

Hampton was one of 81 Iowa communities to qualify for Tree City USA status. To receive the award, a city must, at a minimum, have either a city forester or an active city tree board; have a tree ordinance; spend at least $2 per capita annually for its community forestry program; and have a tree planting and maintenance plan.

Human trafficking program offered in Waverly The Allison area Foster Care Review Board, a program of the Iowa Child Advocacy Board, is sponsoring a presentation “Human Trafficking – Operation Detour” on Tuesday, April 26 from 7-9 p.m. The public is invited to this free event at Vineyard Community Church, 319 West Bremer, in Waverly.

The presenter is Michael J. Ferjak, Iowa Department of Justice – Office of the Attorney General. Ferjak leads the Iowa Department of Justice Human Trafficking Enforcement and Prosecution Initiative (HTEPI). The HTEPI is charged with developing enforcement capacity, supporting victim services and delivering professional training and public awareness education.

Ferjak has received local and national recognition for his service as an investigator and trainer including the Iowa Governor’s Golden Dome Award, the Chrysalis Foundation’s Guardian Award and the National Commission on Enforcement and Regulation’s James Guffey Distinguished Service Award for his service as a national trainer and consultant.

The Foster Care Review Board serves Bremer, Butler, Chickasaw and Franklin counties.

Help halt invasive species this spring Anglers and boaters are reminded to pull their drain plugs while leaving boat ramps to avoid spreading unwanted plants or animals to other water bodies.

The regulation, which went into effect two years ago, requires drain plugs and other water draining devices to be removed and/or remain open during transport. If boaters want to keep live bait when leaving a water access, you must replace water in bait containers with tap or bottle water.

Anglers leaving with fish are recommended to put them on ice,

whether in a cooler, a bucket or a live well (plug must still be removed and/or opened).

Invasive species could range from vegetation such as Eurasian watermilfoil or brittle naiad to water dwelling animals such as zebra mussels or minnows purchased elsewhere. Once introduced into another water body, the unwanted species can spread with few natural predators or vegetation to control their advance. That can crowd out native species and disrupt the ecology of the lake or stream, as well as fishing and other recreation.

ECC spring concert is April 26 The public is invited to the Ellsworth Community College Music Department’s spring concert on April 26 in Hamilton Auditorium in Kruse Main Hall. The performance begins at 7 p.m.

The event will feature performances by the ECC band, ECC choir and various ensembles. Students will perform several types of music including tunes from the 1960s, classical works, patriotic songs, American folk songs, marches, jazz numbers and a medley of George Cohan tunes.

The concert is free and open to the public.

FC SWCD meeting set for April 21 The Franklin County Soil and Water Conservation District Commissioners will have their regular meeting on Thursday, April 21 starting at 7 p.m., at the USDA Service Center in Hampton.

The agenda includes: SWCD activities, NRCS report, CRP, CSP, EQIP, and state and REAP cost share applications. The meeting is open to the public.

Meadows Assisted Living passes annual inspection The Meadows Assisted Living in Clarion was recently informed that the Iowa Department of Inspections & Appeals found no deficiencies at the facility during its annual inspection.

All processes and procedures are reviewed during the visit. The inspection includes, but is not limited to: adequate and competent staff, medication administration, service and meal plans, cleanliness and the overall contentment of the residents of the Meadows Assisted Living.

The Meadows Assisted Living opened in 2006 and is a 18-unit facility currently providing residency to 18 tenants. The Meadows is attached to Iowa Specialty Hospital.

Local DNR officer receives two guns for youth programs Jordon Hansen, DNR conservation officer for Butler and Franklin counties, received two Remington 870 20-gauge youth shotguns March 19 during the North Butler Pheasants Forever Chapter’s annual banquet in Greene. The two guns are valued at more than $600 and will be used by underprivileged youth in both counties for safety training and hunting activities.

3 Hampton-Dumont seniors win REC scholarships Franklin Rural Electric Cooperative (REC) last week announced 2016’s scholarship winners.

Three $300 “Commitment to Community” scholarships were awarded to: • Katelyn Baltes, daughter of Jon and Nadine Baltes, of Hampton, Hampton-Dumont High School.

• Mallory Wohlford, daughter of Terry and Kris Wohlford, of Geneva, Hampton-Dumont High School.

• Brooke Benning, daughter of Paul and Deb Benning, of Hampton, Hampton-Dumont High School.

These students showed commitment to their community by volunteering in organizations or events in the community, church or other activities. Each applicant’s parents or guardians must be Franklin REC members.

Meints

West Fork’s Meints picked for Washington D.C. trip Collin Meints, a sophomore at West Fork High School, will represent Franklin County this summer during a special trip to Washington, D.C. Meints was selected by Franklin Rural Electric Cooperative (REC) for the Iowa Rural Electric Youth Tour. This year’s tour will be held June 10-16.

To qualify, students must be high school sophomores or juniors living in the Hampton-Dumont, CAL, West Fork or AGWSR school districts, or their parents must be Franklin REC members. The selection process included a test and interview.

Meints, of Sheffield, is the son of Daren and Pam Meints.

Question: Can there be more than one lawful custodian of a public record?

Editor’s Note: This is a monthly column prepared by the Iowa Public Information Board to update Iowans on the IPIB’s activities and provide information on some of the issues routinely addressed by the board.

ANSWER: Yes, there can be. A “lawful custodian” is deÀned as the “government body currently in physical possession of the public record.” (Iowa Code Section 22.1(2)). If records are maintained outside the physical possession of the government body, such as a contracted service, the government body owning that record is the “lawful custodian.” The government body cannot prevent the examination or copying of a public record by contracting with a nongovernment storage provider.

Here is an example of more than one lawful custodian: A report is generated by a state agency. Copies of the report are sent to a city department and a county department for review and input. When each review is completed, each local department returns all copies to the state agency.

If a record request is Àled with this city or county department during the period of time that the department has physical possession of the record, that local department is an additional lawful custodian of the public record.

Similarly, an email communication can be in the physical possession of every person who sends or receives that email. If the records request is sent to multiple government bodies, the lawful custodian of each such government body should respond to the record request. It is bad practice, and a possible violation of Chapter 22, for one lawful custodian to assume that another custodian will respond appropriately to a request and fail to respond to a requestor independently.

The Iowa Supreme Court, in Howard v. Des Moines Register and Tribune Co., 283 N.W.2d 289 (Iowa 1979), opined that “lawful possession” equals “lawful custodian.”

In addition, a government body may be the lawful custodian of a record without having physical possession of a record. As part of an overall government policy, records might be stored in a climate controlled off-site storage facility. Even though the records are in the physical possession of a non-government body, the custodian of the records is the government ofÀce that initially generated those records.

Another situation that could arise is when a government body uses an internet service to store records ‘in the cloud.’

A records request would be directed to the government body responsible for the collection and maintenance of those records, not the internet company that is paid to store the records.

The lawful custodian of records relating to investment of public funds is the public body responsible for oversight of those funds.

BEST PRACTICES: When a request for records is Àled, the designated ofÀcer or employee must determine whether that government body has physical possession of the record or has authorized storage of the record off-site. The lawful custodian should notify the requestor promptly of this determination.

Bridge of Hope trivia night raises over $20,000 A team from Midwest Computer Register won the 7th Annual Bridge of Hope North Central Iowa Trivia Game Show Night held April 2 at the Church of the Living Word. The team answered 97 of 100 questions correctly to take first place.

Leon Kuehner emceed the event. There was a record crowd this year with 38 teams participating. Teams of six people competed against other teams and answered multiple choice trivia questions in 10 different categories. A silent auction was also held with 87 items sold.

This year’s event raised $20,671. The money will be used to help single moms and their families who are at risk of homelessness in Franklin County. The program works by pairing each mom with Bridge of Hope’s

trained social worker, who helps the mom set goals, get job training and work, develop a budget and learn the skills she needs to provide a more stable life for her family.

Bridge of Hope also pairs the participant with a group of church-based mentors who act as her support group by encouraging the family, providing a role model and lending a hand as needed. The majority of the game show night income pays the participating families’ rents on a decreasing basis as the moms get job training and find work.

If you are interested in becoming involved with Bridge of Hope or want your church to become a mentoring group, call (641) 456-8644 for more information.

Fishing report for north central Iowa The Iowa Department of Natural Resources’ weekly fishing report is compiled with information gathered from local bait shops, angler creel surveys and state park staff.

For current information, contact the Clear Lake Fish and Wildlife office at (641) 357-3517.

Beeds Lake: Not much angler activity last week. Channel catfishing is usually good after ice-out on the causeway near the bridges. Use cut bait or worms.

Lake Smith: Not much angler activity last week. Fish in the shallower water or bays on the warmer days or on the windward shorelines where bait is pushed.

Clear Lake: Water temperature is around 44 degrees.

Walleye, good. Shore fisherman near the Ventura grade have caught some walleyes during the day and at dark on minnows and twisters.

Channel catfish, good. Catfish

action was good last week. Use cut bait, worms or minnows near inlets and windblown shorelines in the early season. The water is still very clear in the shallows, so fish a little deeper on calm days.

Bluegill, fair. A few bluegills have been caught in the canals. Fish with small ice jigs under a bobber or add a split shot or two and vertical jig near structure.

Muskellunge, fair. Target shallow flats along the shoreline on the east end of the lake. Use a jig and a minnow or a slow moving artificial. Walleye anglers have caught a few near the outlet on the east end and also by the Marsh inlet by the Ventura grade.

Black crappie, good. Crappies have been caught in the canals. Use small ice jigs under a bobber or add a split shot or two and vertical jig near structure. Check out the edges or inside the rushes around the lake as crappies will likely be found near

them as well.

Yellow bass, fair. Yellow bass have been caught in low numbers off the grade. Farmer’s beach and Baptist camp shorelines can be good spots in the early season.

Crystal Lake: The fish cleaning station, boat launch dock and the courtesy dock are in at Crystal Lake.

Blue Pit: Rainbow trout, no report. Trout stocked in winter should still be able to be caught throughout spring. Try using a quick searching lure like an inline spinner.

Bluebill Lake: The access gates to the boat ramp are now open and the courtesy dock has been installed. Minimal fishing activity has been observed to date. There is a 15-inch minimum length limit on largemouth bass.

Winnebago River: Northern pike, no report. Fishing has been good but may shutting down on the northern bite.

Franklin General Hospital is considering offering a cancer support group and is seeking input on whether there is community interest for such a group.

The group would be facilitated

by Cindy Wittmer, RN and manager of FGH Surgery and Outpatient Services. She herself is a survivor of breast cancer.

“If there’s an interest, we would like to meet a need for those who are going through cancer, as well as their family members and others who are survivors,” Wittmer said in a press release.

Having cancer is one of the most stressful things a person can experience. Support groups help many people cope with cancer and provide a safe place to share feelings. They also allow people to learn from others who are going through or have gone through similar experiences.

“Sometimes even the most supportive family members and friends cannot understand exactly how it feels to have cancer,” Wittmer said.

“The group dynamics can create a sense of belonging that helps each person feel more understood and less alone.”

Besides sharing their emotions, support group members can also discuss practical information. This may include their medical options, what to expect during treatment, how to manage pain and other side effects, and how to communicate with health care providers.

“While support groups may not be the right fit for everyone, studies show they can help some cancer patients feel more hopeful and enable them to manage their emotions better,” said Wittmer. “If having a local support group can help patients process their cancer experience, that is what I’m hoping we can offer.”

Anyone who is interested in participating in a cancer support group should contact Wittmer at (641) 456-5930.

Sheffield discusses recent economic developments

BY TRAVIS FISCHER The Sheffield City Council on Monday met with Karen Mitchell, executive director of Franklin County Development Association (FCDA), for an informal update on the county’s economic happenings.

Mitchell informed the council that Franklin County is considered to be at full employment and is in need of new workers to fill existing job demand.

“As you’re probably aware, we are facing a challenge with our population,” she said.

Compounding the population problem is the issue of housing.

While housing development isn’t the specialty of FCDA, they are looking at ways to encourage potential developers to move on new housing.

The planned pork processing facility in Mason City was also discussed, leaving questions as to what it will mean for the Franklin County area. Mitchell wasn’t concerned that the plant may draw workers away from the county, noting that the area has a history of keeping employees.

“There will be some pressure within our community, but what we have found is that pressure raises wages,” she said.

In old business, the council gave their approval to have City Clerk Katy Flint change city hall’s phone and fax service from Frontier to the less expensive Mediacom, with the exception of the fire station. Because Frontier’s phone service will remain active during a power outage, the fire department has asked to remain with Frontier.

The council also put an end to development of an agreement with Gary LaRue to lease an alleyway.

LaRue requested that the city throw out their agreement, noting that “it’s

raised so much commotion down the road.”

In new business, the council spoke with Sheri Bogue and Andy O’Connor to discuss possible parade routes for this year’s summer celebration. O’Connor and Bogue will also be coordinating with LaRue to put on a car show on the same day.

Pre-sales for summer passes to the Sheffield Aquatic Center will go on sale next month. As an incentive to pre-purchase, individuals or families that purchase season passes between May 1 and May 15 will receive a $5 or $10 gift certificate to the concession stand.

To facilitate a more comfortable governing experience, Council Member Jim Hegarty brought up the idea of purchasing a new set of chairs for the council to sit on, rather than the metal folding chairs they currently use. The council agreed to keep an eye out for a sale on chairs, spending no more than $1,000 to seat the council and staff, with a 3-2 vote. Council members Mike McKee and Ron Simmons voted against the measure.

“I would vote for shorter council meetings,” said Simmons.

The council is also on the lookout for more bids to handle public

This is a weekly feature highlighting some of Iowa’s unsolved homicides in the hopes that it will lead to new tips and potentially help solve cases. The project is a partnership between this newspaper and other members of the Iowa Newspaper Association.

Donna Lee Marshall Monday, January 8, 1996, Donna Lee Marshall was found in her southeast side Iowa City mobile home with a gunshot wound to the head. She died the following day. Donna’s 7-year-old daughter Tiffany discovered her mother lying on the living room floor of their trailer around 3 p.m. She ran outside to tell Donna’s boyfriend, Donald Matthess, who had just picked up Tiffany from school.

A search of the mobile home — located at Lot 99 in the Bon-Aire Mobile Home Lodge — yielded mostly prescription drugs and paperwork pertaining to child custody. Authorities searched

both the mobile home and two cars that were parked there. Investigators also took some child custody documents addressed to Marshall and letters from the state child support recovery unit addressed to Matthess.

When Marshall divorced Scott Sweeting in 1989, Marshall was awarded custody of Tiffany.

Sweeting was granted visitation rights, but divorce proceedings on file with the clerk of court showed Sweeting petitioned the court in 1992 to grant full custody to him. No final ruling had been made at the time of Marshall’s murder.

In the fall of 1969, Bristol Motor Speedway was reshaped and remeasured. The turns were banked at 36 degrees and it became a 0.533-mile oval, or the “World’s Fastest Half Mile”. Improvements continued, bringing its current seating capacity to 160,000. The concrete racing surface is 40 feet wide with straightaways 650 feet long. “Racin’ the way it ought’a be” is the slogan that this raceway uses and because it is the shortest track with the highest banking, it makes for exciting racing. Carl Edwards won last year’s Food City 500 and last week’s winner, Jimmie Johnson, finished 19th.

The race will be aired on FOX.

Although quality time together is the true purpose of the day, you can add some special touches to help create a one-of-a-kind brunch to share old memories while you make new ones.

Plan your tablescape. Colorful, fragrant flowers and luxurious linens make your everyday table shine. Use plates in complementing shades and sparkling glassware for an elegant touch. If you have room, add personal touches to the centerpiece, such as mementoes from shared trips or small picture frames with pictures of the two of you through the years.

Prepare a sophisticated menu. Give a nod to the importance of the day with dishes that are a step above standard brunch fare. A richly flavored entree such as this Spring Vegetable and Chevre Tart looks elegant but is surprisingly easy to make. For a cohesive spread, remember to give the basics a boost, too, such as a homemade flavored whipped butter.

Offer a gift with meaning. To truly elevate the occasion, serve (or gift) your mom with a deliciously meaningful wine, such as Cambria Benchbreak Chardonnay or Pinot Noir from the famed Santa Maria bench in Santa Barbara County. Cambria is a family-owned winery that believes in honoring women across the United States and globally. Each year, the winery gives $100,000 to women making a difference in their communities through their Seeds of Empowerment program.

tom sheet. (Optional: create basket-weave pattern with remaining pastry dough).

Brush pastry with egg white and bake until pastry is deep golden brown, about 35 minutes. Serve immediately.

Pinot Noir Rosemary Butter Recipe courtesy of Erin Kennedy of My Thirty Spot Blog 1 cup salted homemade whipped butter (recipe below) 3/4 cup Cambria Benchbreak Pinot Noir 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary Fill shallow saucepan with wine and

simmer until consistency becomes syrupy (reducing to about 1/8 cup).

Let syrup cool completely.

Add syrup and rosemary to whipped butter and mix. Serve chilled.

Homemade Whipped Butter 1/2 quart heavy cream 1/2 teaspoon salt (up to 3/4 teaspoon, to taste) In food processor, mix butter until cream turns to consistency of cottage cheese and starts to separate from buttermilk, about 3-5 minutes of constant mixing. Strain butter from

buttermilk.

Use wooden spoon to knead butter in water (just like dough) to remove all remaining buttermilk. Drain and repeat until water is clear.

Remaining whipped butter is ready to serve or for adding flavoring ingredients.

Franklin County Extension and Outreach hosted Iowa State mascot Cy April 1 as part of the annual Extension Week celebration, capping off a week of daily drawings and a free screening of the movie “Zootopia” at the Windsor Theatre.

Cy spent Friday visiting CAL, Hampton-Dumont and West Fork, posing for pictures with students and faculty, handing out tickets to the movie screening, taking time to sing with the choral group and even shaking his tail feathers in gym class.

On Saturday, Cy got to the Windsor early so he could pose for pictures before the movie began, even singing “Happy Birthday” to one young lady before returning to his nest in Ames.
