Judge sets date in Mitchell case By Chris Johnson Reporter
A man accused of stabbing a Leaf River couple more than two years ago had his case continued again Monday afternoon. Michael Mitchell, 29, Leaf River, remains in the Ogle County Jail while his case is proceeding. His public defender Eric Morrow was in court Monday before Ogle County Judge John Redington for a jury pre-trial. “I have not talked to my client today,� said Morrow. “Based on the reports I would like to set a 402 conference.� Mitchell was not brought over from the jail for the court appearance. During the 402 conference the procedure for going forward with the case would be discussed privately in the
judge’s chamber. Redington, however, decided to set another jury pre-trial, which will be held in open court. “Let’s do this Friday at 1:30,� he said. “We will bring him over [from the jail].� The jury pre-trial will be held Friday, Nov. 1 at 1:30 p.m. in courtroom 202. Mitchell is accused of breaking into the home of David and Denise Zellers on July 3, 2011 and repeatedly stabbing them with two knives he brought with him. Both suffered serious injuries and were taken to Forreston High School students tried to keep warm during halftime of the EPC game on Oct. 25. Photo by Earleen the hospital.

Affordable Care Act assistance is now available By Chris Johnson Reporter Navigating the Affordable Care Act (ACA) can be confusing and difficult. Brian Kennedy, a marketplace insurance counselor at the Ogle County Health Department, and Linda Johnson, the director of health education at the Ogle County Health Department, are available to assist area residents with learning about health insurance. The ACA is also nicknamed “Obamacare� and begins Jan. 1. The government mandated that all Americans must have ACA medical insurance if they don’t already have medical insurance. The deadline to sign up is March 31. After this date, residents can be penalized. Not everyone needs to sign up for the insurance. If insurance is offered through an individual’s workplace, they will not be eligible for healthcare through ACA. “If you are on Medicare or Medicaid you do not need to do anything,� he said. “The ACA also expanded who is eligible for these programs.� The ACA requires everyone to be insured for at least nine months each year. “There is a fine of $95 or
one percent of your income whichever is greater if you do not have insurance,� Kennedy said. No individual or family can be denied health insurance based on pre-existing conditions. “I am here to give a quick overview of the ACA and Illinois Marketplace,� said Kennedy during a workshop at the Rock River Center Oct. 25. “There is a website set up to compare plans and sign up.� The website www. healthcare.gov, has been the subject of numerous crashes and has been in the national news over the past weeks. The site, when working, Kennedy said, has all the health care plans listed and can be compared before selecting one. In Illinois the marketplace website is getcoveredillinois. gov. A state website aid.illinois. gov can assist with learning if an individual is eligible for Medicare or Medicaid. Medicare and Medicaid is now available for anyone who meets the financial requirements where before it was limited based on age or being disabled. “Medicaid is expanding so Linda Johnson, Ogle County Health Department Director Health Education, left, talks to Samantha Slagle, DeKalb, Turn to A2 about the Health Insurance Marketplace website.

Insurance information available From A1 everyone is eligible at 138 percent of the poverty line,� said Johnson. Part of the ACA requires that all health insurance plans include benefits for emergencies, preventative medicine, maternity, and prescription drugs. “All of the government plans and private plans must have similar baselines to compare,� said Kennedy. The plans through the government marketplace are listed in four tiers: bronze,
silver, gold, and platinum. Each plan has a maximum percentage of out of pocket expenses and have various deductibles and costs for prescription drugs. “There are different copays and deductibles with these plans,� said Kennedy. “The exact rates can vary depending on age, location, if you are a smoker, and number in a family being covered.� The ACA also offers assistance with the copays and insurance costs depending on financial situations. “If you earn less than 250
percent of the poverty line you can get help with your copays under the ACA,� said Kennedy. The subsidy will be in the form of a tax credit, he said. “This can be applied to your premium each month or you can receive a lump sum on your tax return,� said Kennedy. Individuals currently enrolled in insurance plans may be eligible for a subsidy if their insurance costs are greater than 9.5 percent of their income, Johnson said. To be eligible for the
government healthcare residents need to be United States citizens. For assistance learning about the ACA, contact Kennedy at 815-732-7330 ext. 296. Appointments can be scheduled to go over the plans. There is also a federal helpline that is available by visiting healthcare.gov. The Ogle County Health Department plans on hosting numerous workshops throughout the enrollment period to assist residents with the ACA.
New administration building planned From A1 and to spend $158,000 for the firm to draw up a design for the new building.

The 90-foot by 150-foot building will have a concrete foundation and steel frame. Cook said bids for the project will be let in January with construction set to begin in March. He said plans call for the building to be completed by July 1, and after that parking areas will be redone to ensure that water drains away from the buildings. Gouker said Monday night that the money to pay for both buildings will come from the Long Range Planning Fund. Revenues in that fund come from the host fees paid by garbage collection firms to dump refuse in the landfills within the county. The fees bring approximately $3 million per year in the county’s coffers. According to the budget, the Long Range Planning
Fund, which is earmarked for major capital projects, is projected to start the new fiscal year with a balance of $13 million. Gouker drew the board’s attention to a newly established fund in the proposed budget. The County Vehicle Revolving Purchase Fund has been set up, he said, because the sheriff’s department has requested several new vehicles. Board member Greg Sparrow, Rochelle, said revenue for the fund will come from the Long Range Planning Fund. He said he believes that is an appropriate use of the money because vehicles are long-term assets. Sparrow said $250,000 will be transferred from the Long Range Planning Fund
to the new fund each year for the next four years. The county currently owns 110 to 115 vehicles, 54 of which are the sheriff’s department’s, he said. Sparrow said all county departments can borrow from the new fund to buy vehicles, and will be required to pay the money back into the fund over a four to five-year period. “These are big ticket items,� Gouker said. “They can make a big dent in your budget if you have to pay it back all in one year.� He said Harn requested 10 new vehicles, but only six were approved for 2014. Others may be purchased in subsequent years, he said. The proposed budget shows projected expenditures of $170,000 in the new vehicle fund.

Church raising money for mission Prairie Dell Church has designated the Heifer International Project as its church mission for this year. The goal is to collect $1,000 for the project, buying two cows for the charity that teaches people in third world countries how to use their resources economically, as well as share their resources with others. This year Prairie Dell has a wooden milk cow named PaDella traveling to
members’ homes and posing in their yards. The member must pay to have PaDella removed from the yard. The more one pays the more one can determine what happens to PaDella in the following week. Just since mid-September PaDella has produced $480. Those who would like PaDella to visit their home or church, is asked to call the church office at 815864-2448. PaDella loves to visit.

care, water requirements, and most importantly budgeting for the winter commitment of feeding our local nonmigratory species. “Many birds become dependent on a food source so once we start feeding the birds it can be detrimental to stop before spring,� said Doty. “Understanding a bird’s behavior will help attract and keep many species coming to your feeders,� Doty added. “Some birds will only feed on the ground, some on flat surfaces, while others prefer a feeder well off the ground.

Bull sale will be held at
Illinois State Fairgrounds The IPT Bull Sale, which accepts older bulls and yearling bulls with birthdates from Jan. 1 through March 31, 2013, is scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 20, 2014, at the Illinois State Fairgrounds Livestock Center in Springfield. “The IPT Bull sale allows consignors a marketing platform to sell fresh genetics that have a foundation built in performance and carcass merit,� said Travis Meteer, IPT Bull Sale manager. “The majority of the bulls sold last year were AI sired bulls and represented some of the most elite genetics in the beef business. “Illinois breeders have the opportunity to target purebred and commercial bull buyers across the state by consigning to the sale.� Meteer added that during the past 45 years the sale has marketed over 4,500 bulls for a total of $7.7 million. A new policy has been adopted regarding the eligibility for the sale of bulls with a recessive trait or bulls with ancestors having recessive traits. “All bulls must satisfy the same testing requirements of last year. However, all new recessive genetic defects will be based on the breed’s registry rules,� Meteer said. The new policy reflects the likelihood that additional recessive genes will be identified in the near future and the belief that each respective breed registry is best suited to evaluate how to handle the discovery of new recessive traits within its breed. “Recessive traits are present
in every population. They are not new, but the technology to identify them is. “Cattle breeders will continue to have more information to make accurate breeding decisions as technology keeps advancing. The IPT Bull Sale will continue to provide top genetics and the most selection information available,� Meteer said. For the second year, the power score used for ranking the bulls will be determined from the percentile rankings on two Dollar Value indexes. Dollar W and Dollar B Indexes will be used for the Angus bulls; API and TI for Simmentals; BMI and CHB
for Herefords. Breeds without Dollar Value indexes will still be ranked according to the six-trait Power Score. The maximum value for cataloging is 55. All bulls must have EPDs for marbling/ IMF and REA. Nomination deadlines and fees are three-tiered: $75 if received prior to Nov. 16; $100 if received Nov. 16 to Dec. 1; or $125 if received Dec. 2 - 15. Seed stock breeders can obtain a current copy of the rules and regulations as well as the nomination form for the 2014 sale on the web at www. IPTBullSale.com.

Take steps when wallet lost By Kathy Sweedler University of Illinois Extension Educator Consumer Economics

Many of us know that dreadful feeling when you realize you’ve lost your wallet. Once you’ve confirmed that your wallet is lost, what do you need to do? Your first concern is to stop the potential for identity theft by someone using the information found in your wallet. Then, take steps to replace your identification, insurance, and other cards that are likely in your wallet. If you have a debit card, contact the bank or credit union that issued the card immediately. Your liability for losses are higher with a debit card that a credit card. Federal laws limit your liability, how much you could lose, with a credit card to $50. If you report a lost debit card within two days, your liability is $50 but your liability goes up as time passes until you risk losing everything in your account. Next, report the loss to your local police department. Ask for the report number and a hard copy of the report. Even with limited dollar liability for lost credit cards, report lost credit cards to the financial institutions and companies that issued them as soon as possible. These businesses will change your account numbers and send new cards. Place a fraud alert on

your credit reports so that someone can’t use your identity to open up new accounts. Contact one of the three credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian or TransUnion) and request a free fraud alert. A fraud alert means that lenders must take extra precautions to verify your identity before granting credit in your name. If you place a fraud alert with one of the credit reporting companies, then it will notify the other two agencies. Once you place the alert, you will receive a free credit report from each of the bureaus. Check this baseline information to be sure it is all accurate. Then you can recheck your reports in a few weeks to be sure there is no identity theft activity. Another step to consider to protect your identity is to put a freeze on your credit reports. A freeze means that no new credit can be issued to you, or to someone pretending to be you. To place a credit freeze, contact each of the three credit reporting companies and there is a small charge for this service. You can end the freeze but it takes up to three days. Hopefully your Social Security card is not in your lost wallet. Your Social
Security number is the number most useful to people interested in stealing your identity; protect this number. If your card is missing contact your local Social Security office or visit their website at www.ssa.gov. Lost Medicare cards are also replaced by Social Security offices. Lost driver’s licenses can be replaced at any Driver Services Facility in the state. You will need acceptable identification and to pay a fee. Also, don’t forget to report missing insurance cards that may be in your wallet to your insurance companies. Do you think you could remember everything that’s in your wallet? You may want to make a list of your wallet contents or make a copy of all the cards so that you will know who to contact just in case your wallet goes missing. Make sure to copy both the front and back of cards. Many times the customer service phone number is on the card’s back which is a handy piece of information. Losing your wallet means time spent reporting losses. While it’s a chore, don’t panic. Just make a list of who to contact and work your way through the list.

Public Voice Book exchange seeks donations
Dear Editor, In an effort to spread the love of reading, especially to those students who don’t have many books at home, we are having a book exchange in grades PreK – Sixth on Dec. 5 and 6 at Oregon Elementary School. Students will be able to bring in one or two new or gently used books to exchange with other students. This is also a great way to “recycle� books for families. Since we know that not
everyone has a book to share, we are asking for donations to help each student in the school receive at least one book. We are accepting donations of books or money to make this possible through Wednesday, Nov. 13. Please contact Lyn Hunter at 815-732-2181 ext. 1414 if you have any questions or you may make checks payable to: Oregon Elementary School. We would appreciate any help you could give us. In the event we have leftover books, they will be donated to the Lot 12 Mobile Home Ministry at the
Mt. Morris Estates Reading Program or be saved for future exchanges. Thank you for your support. Lyn Hunter Book Exchange Committee

What is the American Legion? You have probably heard of the term “American Legion� and were not sure what it meant or how one could become a member. Many of the men, as well as the VFW, can be seen at Memorial Day parades and other parades in Oregon marching and carrying the American flag. You may have seen one of the men driving a M-37 truck. Maybe you or a member of your family has been at a presentation where an American Legion member gave a presentation on “flag etiquette� or “flag folding procedures� and the meaning behind each fold. The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, and continued devotion to our
fellow service members and veterans. The organization belongs to the people it serves and the communities in which it thrives. John Tuttle is the commander of the American Legion Oregon Post 97. He was recently interviewed and asked these questions. Commander, why did you become involved with the American Legion? Response: To have a positive impact on the community, to be a support for veterans, those on active duty, and to get involved with fellow veterans. Commander, what are some of the activities that Oregon Post 97 has been doing in our community? Response: We have contributed to the restoration of war memorials, helped with honor guard and rifle salutes, and marched in parades. Members of the post have worked with Cub Scouts, sent high school students Boy/ Girl’s State, remembered and honored veterans in nursing homes and helped with transportation for veterans through the Veterans Assistance Commission. There are many other contributions that individual members make to the community.
Commander, in the future, what would you like to see the Oregon Post 97 doing as a community-based organization? Response: We would like to be more involved with the student in the schools. We would like to take part in community festivals to promote veteran support. Commander, who can be a member, and are females allowed to join the American Legion? Response: Unfortunately, our charter states that you must be a veteran who served during war time. At present, we have two female members and encourage any women who have served during wartime to join us. Commander, if someone is interested in more information about the American Legion or would be interested in joining, who to they contact? Response: Myself or any member of the American Legion would be glad to help you in your desire to be a legionnaire. We meet every fourth Tuesday at 7 p.m. at the VFW. Visitors are welcome. If your organization is interested in having a presentation by Commander Tuttle or a representative, please contact him at 815494-4818.

Ogle County Newspapers, Thursday, October 31, 2013, Page A12
Corn yields are surprising for Ogle County farmers By Vinde Wells Editor With just a little less than half of Ogle County’s corn crop harvested, yields are much higher than expected. “Corn yields are incredibly surprising,� said Ron Kern,
director of the Ogle County Farm Bureau, on Tuesday. “There’s a lot more out there than we anticipated. I haven’t talked to anyone who is disappointed.� Despite an abnormally dry July and August, so far the fields across the county are
yielding 200 to 240 bushels per acre, he said. Although a wet April delayed planting somewhat, Kern said the rain “was just what we needed� after last year’s drought and a dry 2011. With the moisture in the
soil early, the corn “got off to a great start,� Kern said. Another factor in the high yields is the effectiveness of genetically-engineered hybrids which allow the corn plants to thrive despite less than ideal conditions, he said. With 80 percent of the
county’s soybean crop harvested, Kern said the yields are varied. Some areas of the county got rain in late July and early August — a crucial time for soybean development — while the storms missed other areas completely.
Several nights in the last two weeks with temperatures below freezing helped the harvest get into full swing. Prior to that, some corn plants remained green. Since the frost, the stalks have died, allowing the crop to dry out enough to harvest efficiently.

The Prairie Preservation Society of Ogle County will sell Christmas trees on the Sand Ridge Prairie again this year. Photo supplied
Christmas trees will be sold through the PPSOC The Prairie Preservation Society of Ogle County (PPSOC) will once again sell Christmas trees at the Sand Ridge Prairie site on Daysville Road, southeast of Oregon. PPSOC has grown from a quiet nonprofit organization that purchased an 11-acre off the beaten track prairie to one that provides programs to the public, tours, and best of all, sells Christmas trees. The trees are growing on what was part of the Sinnissippi Forest and tree
farm but now is Sand Ridge Prairie, owned by the PPSOC. For the third year, PPSOC will sell Christmas trees during the month before Christmas to raise money to pay for the land, which has remnants of the finest dry prairie in this part of the state. In December of 2010, PPSOC purchased the land from Warren Miller with the intent to preserve and enhance the remnants. Funds from the Illinois Clean Energy Community Foundation helped pay a

large part of the bill. A loan for the remainder of the bill is still being paid off. Seed collection is ongoing throughout the growing season. Seeds are then spread in areas that need more plants or greater diversity. In the short time that PPSOC has owned the land, remnants are improving. The trees are a bonus that came with the land. After much discussion, the PPSOC Board decided to sell them each year. Members of the organization donate their time selling, directing people to the places to find the trees they want and helping cut, tie and load them. The reaction has been exciting and rewarding, said PPSOC member Sonia Vogl. “People who had come with their parents to pick and cut the perfect tree for their families were delighted that the operation had re-opened. “The happiness on their faces as they arrived with anticipation and left with their prize has been gratifying to all of the volunteers,� she said. “A new generation is discovering the pleasure of ‘tree hunting.’� The land is open to the public for tree sales and for tours at selected dates during the rest of the year. More information will be coming as the sale dates near.

Farmers face challenges Though farming was once big business in the United States, by 2012 less than one percent of Americans were professional farmers. Many challenges face today’s farmers, many of which are largely unknown to the general public. Many people have an outdated view of a farm as a small, family-owned and operated parcel of land where livestock is raised in open pens and crops are handharvested when ripe. The reality is that modernday farms have had to overhaul operations to meet demand and remain competitively priced while adapting to the ever-changing ways technology infiltrates all parts of life. Each of these factors present obstacles for today’s farmers. Technology Rural farming communities are expected to make an effort to integrate modern
technology into an industry that has been around for centuries. But such a transition in rural areas, where communications systems may not be as up-todate as those in urban areas, is not always so easy. According to the Manitoba Rural Adaptation Council, a shift from a resource-based to an information-based economy, compounded by the rapid introduction and expansion of new technology in the workplace, has altered farm operation and the skills in demand. Older workers who have been schooled in one way of agriculture may have a significant impact on labor supply and the vitality of farming as a career. Younger adults who are knowledgeable in technology may no longer seek out agricultural careers. Decrease in farming as an occupation The United States
Environmental Protection Agency says that only about 960,000 Americans claim farming as their principal occupation. As that figure has dwindled, the average age of farmers continues to rise, as the Bureau of Labor Statistics notes that roughly 40 percent of the farmers in this country are 55 years old or older. This has led to concerns about the long-term health of family farms throughout the United States. Environmental concerns Many farmers have come under scrutiny for how farming impacts the environment. A growing emphasis on sustainability and conservation has led many people to protest certain farming practices. Protesters claim that certain practices, such as raising livestock, can pollute Turn to A13

Environmental issues that all farmers face is weather From A12 water, while the use of fertilizers and chemical pesticides is bad for the environment. Many farmers, however, have altered their methods to be more environmentally friendly and self-sustainable in the process. Climate change is another environmental issue farmers must deal with. Strong storms and severe droughts have made farming even more challenging. Financial fall-out The ongoing recession of the last half-decade has also affected farmers. In November of 2012,
the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics indicated that the unemployment rate within the agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting industries was at 13.6 percent, far higher than the national unemployment rate. As a result, many farm families have found themselves stuck between a rock and a hard place, as rising costs for equipment and technology are being coupled with decreasing profits and rising unemployment. Further complicating matters is competition from corporations and international food producers
who have made it difficult for family farmers to turn a significant profit. Many family farmers rely on loans and lines of credit to survive, but thanks to changes in the financial sector that saw banks become less willing to extend lines of credit, some farmers are facing bankruptcy. Though it can be easy for those who do not work in the agricultural industry to overlook the struggles facing today’s agricultural professionals, a greater understanding of those struggles and the challenges that lay ahead can benefit the industry and its employees down the road.

Cattle prices may continue to climb into 2014 Cash cattle prices have moved higher this fall, supported by small cattle supplies, a generally favorable demand base, and low feed prices that have sent feeder cattle futures prices to record highs. According to Purdue University Extension Economist Chris Hurt, the outlook suggests even higher prices in coming months. “Finished cattle prices fell to summer lows in early August, slightly below $120 per hundredweight,” Hurt said. “Prices recovered somewhat into the low $120s in August and September, but have recently moved toward $130. “The anticipation of small beef supplies in the coming year has been well documented. Per capita beef supplies will likely be down about 5 percent for the rest of this year and well into 2014. “The loss of cattle in South Dakota due to the early October blizzard gained national attention and may have helped support the idea that cattle supplies would be even tighter. However, the reduction is not large in terms of the national impact,” he said. Hurt said that even at 100,000 head of losses, which is the upper end of estimates so far, that represents only one-tenth of 1 percent of the nation’s 89 million head of cattle. “If half of the animals were beef cows, that still represents less than twotenths of 1 percent of the nation’s beef cow herd.
Losses of this magnitude are huge for individuals but not highly significant for beef supplies on a national basis. “The blizzard losses would be expected to increase finished cattle prices by only 20 to 35 cents per hundredweight over the coming year,” Hurt said. Feeder cattle futures reached record-high prices on Oct. 14, at nearly $1.70 per pound, driven by a combination of high-finished cattle futures and low feed prices. December corn futures, as an example, touched lows on Oct. 14, at $4.32 per bushel. Calf prices have likely reached $175 per hundredweight, or higher, at Plains markets, although USDA reports have not been published due to the partial government shutdown that ended Oct. 17. Hurt said that the direction of calf and feeder cattle prices will be determined by the strength of finished cattle prices and the direction of feed prices. Feed prices seem to hinge mostly on yields for corn and soybeans and on early signs of demand growth in the export market, he said. How much more upside is there in finished cattle markets? “Prices are expected to move into the very low $130s in November and average about $130 for the October to December quarter,” Hurt said. “Further strength is expected into March and April with highs reaching
the mid-$130s. First-quarter averages are expected to be about $133 and the second quarter near $132. On an annual basis, cattle prices should set new record highs this year near $126 and break that record once again in 2014 with an average near $130 for the entire year,” he said. According to Hurt, the most recent monthly Cattleon-Feed report was also a casualty of the partial shutdown. However, with abundant feed resources and much lower prices, the small number of calves that are available are expected to move to feedlots and be placed at lighter weights than a year ago when feed was high priced. Lower-priced feed and the expectations for increasing finished cattle prices over the next four to five months should also encourage feedlot managers to feed to heavier weights. “Some brood cow producers in areas where pastures have returned are expected to begin heifer retention this fall,” Hurt said. “However, it is estimated that dry regions still represent about 45 percent of the brood cow herd that are not expected to expand until better pasture and forage conditions prevail. Overall, this means that the expansion of the beef herd will remain slow into 2014. “With low cattle numbers, there is considerable excess capacity in feedlots and packing facilities,” Hurt
added. “Both packers and feedlots tend to have large fixed costs in facilities. The combination of excess capacity and high fixed costs means that both will tend to bid strongly for the limited cattle numbers. Ultimately this strong bidding gets back to the brood cow producer in the form of record-high calf and feeder cattle prices. “Unfortunately, these conditions also mean that the
margins for both packers and feedlots, while better than in the past year, will still be narrow and will likely be less than their total costs,” he said. The beef cattle industry has been downsizing, Hurt said, with falling numbers for several years. “Continued excess capacity likely means one to two more years of downsizing,” Hurt said. “Then, if beef cow
numbers begin to slowly turn upward in 2014, downsizing of cattle feeding capacity may end in 2015 and in the packing industry by 2016. “The years beyond 2016 should provide some expansion for the beef cattle industry, but there will still be a slow upward growth,” Hurt said. “A slow upward trend is not highly optimistic but much better than the declining trends of recent years.”

SCARY GOOD DEALS!!!
Sculpture will be dedicated Nov. 2 “It gives me great pleasure to see that my mother’s artistic talents have been inherited by my daughter,” said artist Pamela Lee, whose artwork “Soy Pod” was chosen as the latest installment of the Community Arts Legacy (CAL) in Oregon. Her sculpture “Soy Pod” is the newest art piece added to the Oregon Public Library’s art collection and the ninth installment in an aggressive project by CAL to add 10 sculptures in 10 years to the art rich Oregon community. The artwork will be installed on Saturday, Nov. 2 at 4 p.m. at location on the library lot located just west of the post office on Ill. 64 in Oregon. The community is invited to the dedication. “The inspiration for ‘Soy Pod’ came from living in homes that were surrounded by farms,” said Lee. “Corn and soybean fields and farm animals have almost always been part of the neighborhoods I’ve lived in.” Lee participated in the Field Arts Project and her sculpture was chosen as the 2013 installment of CAL’s project to add 10 sculptures in 10 years to Oregon. “When we started the CAL with the goal of erecting 10 sculptures in the Oregon area we had no idea how that would go. It is through the support of the Oregon community that we are able to place the 9th out of 10 sculptures this year and look forward to completion of the 10th.” said Jeff Adams owner of InBronze Foundry, Mt. Morris, who makes each of the sculptures after they are chosen for the project. “When I was deciding on my subject for the competition, I wanted to include soybeans as part of the design,” said Lee. “I wanted the design to reflect that a simple pod of beans has
a large impact. It is in many of our food products and the feed of our animals as well.” The artist, Lee, grew up in the rural edges of the Chicago suburbs and has lived in Illinois all of her life. She has been privileged to have as instructors, mentors and friends many great artists including Mary Block and Jan Poklop. She works in many mediums including terracotta, bronze, resin, painting in watermedia, pastels, oils and mixed media. Her style is quite diverse ranging from abstract to representational. “I prefer to stretch my creativity rather than limit it,” said Lee. Lee’s main studio is in Highland Park, and she has a small studio on her farm in Grayslake. She is also a part of “The Artists at 3150.” This is a community of artists in the same building that have combined their efforts as artists and invite the public to open studio events during the year. Lee currently has a sculpture titled “You” in the Recent Works exhibition at Wright Gallery in Grayslake and her newest work includes her “Rain” series which is an experimental sculpture project. Visit her website at www. pamelaleestudio.com to view her work. “We are very fortunate as a library to be able to also serve as an art gallery for the Oregon Community,” said Marsha Zaccone, Oregon Public Library Director. “This is our second piece from the CAL collection and we could not be happier,” said Scott Stephens, President of the Oregon Library Board of Trustees. “ Lee is a talented artist and “Soy Pod” is a wonderful addition to our collection and to our community.”

Cardinals fall to EPC 26-7 By Andy Colbert Reporter
Playing in what is considered the best 1A league in the state, EPC made it two conference titles in a row with a 26-7 win over Forreston. Afterwards, EPC Randy Asche had high praise for his opposition. “Forreston (7-2, 5-2) is a good team. I think the winner between Lena-Winslow and Forreston is going to DeKalb,” Asche said. Playing against a team that had a decisive physical advantage, the Cardinals managed to take a 7-0 lead midway through the first quarter after stopping EPC on its first two possessions. Facing a fourth-and-9 at midfield, Forreston faked the punt and up-back Robert DeVries connected with Brayden Wierzycki Forreston’s Abbey Osterloo tips the ball over the net for a 23-yard gain. An
The Forreston Lady Cardinals were eliminated from the regional in their opening game against Eastland Tuesday night. Both games were close with scores of 18-25, 20-25. The Lady Cardinals were trading Eastland point for point in the first game with many serves taking multiple volleys over the net before a point was earned. In the second game, Eastland took an early lead but the Lady Cardinals did not give up and tied the game at 10 before the game slipped away.

unsportsmanlike penalty on EPC tacked 15 more yards on. A first down at the 15-yard line soon became a fourthand-20, but DeVries found Dylan Hensley streaking down the middle for a 24yard pass reception. One play later, DeVries scored on a 1-yard run. “We were flat in the first half,” said 6-3, 265-pound tackle Boden Brandt of EPC. “We have a big line, but aren’t physical enough yet. We need to get that fixed before next week.” EPC responded with a 65yard scoring drive, the key play being a 31-yard run by Shawn Larak, who also scored from three yards out to tie the game at 7-7 early in the second quarter. It was apparent early on that Forreston was not going to have success running between the tackles on EPC’s
beefy line that went from 250 to 290 pounds. Fullback Spencer Cruthis was held to 15 yards on 10 carries. “We played with them,” Forreston coach Denny Diduch said. “Offensively, they took away our inside game; but we got the outside game going.” Later the second quarter, Max Barkalow (4-for-77 yards) got loose on a rocket sweep for 49 yards and Forreston looked to take a lead into halftime. However, Walter Ollie stopped Barkalow two feet short of a first down on a fourth-down pass reception with three minutes left in the half. “That put us in hole,” Diduch said. “Their linebacker made a big play. We could have run the clock out and maybe gone up 147.” Instead, Donny Groezinger Turn to B2
Final drive comes up short in Polo’s 14-8 loss Marcos lose to Warren Oct. 25 By Chris Johnson Reporter Six inches short.
With a fourth down attempt in the final minute of the game, a run to the outside came up 6 inches short to end the final drive of Polo’s season. Their opponent Warren took two kneel downs and the game was over.

“You know it is devastating to our guys (to not pull through on final drive),” said coach Andrew Hofer. “A lot of work went into the season. We came up 6 inches short.” Polo had opportunities during the 14-8 loss. Warren started the game with a long 9 minute drive that was capped off on a short touchdown run by Gavin Leverton. The defense did not give up and blocked the extra point attempt. The Marcos offense responded in the second quarter by scoring a touchdown of their own on a short run by Brad Cavanaugh. Polo went for 2 and converted to gain a 8-6 lead. For the remainder of the half and the third quarter the teams had a battle of field position. Warren was able to break through and score the goahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter. A 2 point conversion gave Warren a 6 point lead with the time running down. “We had to keep fighting Brian Cavanaugh, left, and Ethan Ditzler, right, show their emotions after loosing a because we knew it was not close 14-8 football game Oct. 25 to end the season. Photo by Chris Johnson going to be easy and they were a good team,” said Leverton. “We had to keep our heads up.” Warren’s defense kept their heads up and fought hard to prevent Polo from driving down the field. Polo was driving down the field and the Warren defense was able to stop them on a fourth down try. The loss knocked the Marcos out of the playoffs, and the team finished with a 4-5 record. “We had some adversity this week with some guys out,” said Hofer. “You know it is the nature of the beast.” A win would have guaranteed a playoff spot, but Hofer said the season had numerous positive aspects. “I am proud of the guys for getting us in position,” said Hofer. “They worked really hard and we battled all year.” AJ Dollmeyer and Jacob Cain take down the Warren running back in the first half Oct. 25.

Cardinals fall to EPC after taking early lead From B1 scored in a 61-yard pass reception from Deven Herren and EPC took a 14-7 lead. Herren was nearly sacked before he got the pass off the Groezinger. Ever the risk-taker, Diduch opted to go for it on his own 40-yard line on the first possession of the second half, but DeVries was sacked by Chase Giedd. DeVries was under pressure all night from the Wildcatz pass rush. A pair of fumbled Forreston’s Dylan Hensley comes catches a first quarter pass setting up the Cardinals snaps between center and only touchdown as EPC’s Ramsey Trukenmiller moves to cover. Photo by Earleen quarterback helped Forreston Hinton get the ball back on its own 23-yard line, though. Taking eight minutes off
the clock and running 19 plays, Forreston converted two fourth downs to advance to the red zone. EPC’s defense stiffened and a hurried DeVries threw an interception in the end zone to Mike Harrington, the smallest of the Wildcatz at 5-5, 140 pounds. “We kept them in that drive with our mistakes, but our kids felt we could keep them out of the end zone,” Asche said. Harrington’s pick seem to fire up his team, as it quickly marched downfield to take a 20-7 lead. Groezinger broke five tackles on a 24-yard touchdown run.
“We couldn’t get our offense going and that wore us down,” Forreston’s Ross Williams said. “Running that hurry-up offense gets them tired,” Herren said. “I think our conditioning showed in the second half.” Both team made fourthdown stops on each other before the Wilcatz put the game away with a 2-yard touchdown by Groezinger late in the fourth quarter. “They took away out fullback and we had to get adventurous in the second half,” Diduch said. “They’re just studs in the middle.”

Sports Column NUIC football fans upset again with IHSA By Andy Colbert Reporter For the umpteenth year, 1A football teams from the NUIC are upset that the IHSA decided on an 8-team football playoff quadrant. Actually, if they had the final say-so, coaches would prefer a straight 1-32 bracket. At one time, that used to be the case and no one suffered for it. In chatting on the 92.1 FM playoff show (the best radio playoff show in the state), Lena-Winslow coach Ric Arand still speaks fondly of a 200-mile trip to play Beardstown in 2001. A few years back, the IHSA
decided to go to quadrants as a way to cut down on travel. That’s a shame, because the mystique of playing teams you aren’t familiar with was lost. It was also a cultural lesson for fans traveling to parts unknown. Several years ago, I was sent to DuQuoin in southern Illinois to cover a Bureau Valley game and was enthralled by being in a different high school environment. The problem with the NUIC is that they are landlocked, with Iowa to the west and Wisconsin to the north. Schools in the central part of Illinois can be sent in different directions. Case in point – Fisher and Gibson City are in the same conference and located 13 miles apart, but are in
different 1A quadrants. The past two years, the NUIC got a slight reprieve and were slotted into 16-team quadrants. The two years before that, it was 8-team brackets. If the IHSA does 8-team quadrants in 2014, I can already tell you who will be in it – about 6-7 NUIC teams and Alden-Hebron, or maybe somebody like Christian life or Mooseheart. That gets boring year after year and more importantly; it does not allow a disbursement of the best teams to points elsewhere in the state. After his team beat Forreston on Friday, EPC coach Randy Asche predicted that either Le-Win or Forreston would be in the state finals. In a cruel fate, one of them will go home after this weekend.
Hypothetically speaking, what would have happened if Polo beat Warren and qualified at 5-4. Villa Grove, the largest school in 1A, would have gone up to 2A, but it probably wouldn’t have changed the bracket much. The IHSA would have kept the northwest 8-team quadrant and moved either Christian Life or Hebron to the other 8-team quadrant. The Polo loss certainly has a domino effect, as it would affect the way the 2A bracket played out with Villa Grove (largest 1A team) moving up and Virden North Mac going from 2A to 3A. The shuffling would have stopped at 4A, as RichmondBurton, the 256th team to make the playoffs would have been out if Polo was in. In a way, those three schools owe Polo a sense of
gratitude. What would have happened if there was a 16team quadrant? Forreston would have been seeded eighth and hosted East Dubuque, with the winner likely traveling to Ottawa Marquette for round two. Le-Win would have gotten its wish to travel over multiple county lines and went to Gibson City, setting up a potential quarterfinal match-up with Forreston. Getting back to the 8-team quadrant, though I don’t agree with it, you can’t fault the IHSA for mapping it out this way. The nearest 1A qualifiers are in the city of Chicago and on a straight line from Ottawa, down through Toulon and Abingdon. One positive for shorter trips is that the ride home after a playoff loss isn’t as bad as a

long trip. After experiencing an unfathomable Oregon loss to Carthage in the 2008 semifinals, sitting in a vehicle for three hours afterwards was mind numbing. Needless to say, the fall scenery was not enjoyed as much on the way back as the way there.

Trial date set for ex-banker charged with theft By Vinde Wells Editor A Lee County judge has set aside four days in January for the jury trial of a former Oregon woman charged with theft and financial fraud. At a hearing on Oct. 16 for Audrey (Stanley) Smith, 33, Dixon, Judge Ron Jacobson scheduled the trial for Jan. 13,
14, 15, and 16. A Lee County Grand Jury indicted Smith March 6 on charges of theft, financial fraud, computer fraud, financial exploitation of an elderly person, and wire fraud. The case was investigated by the Illinois State Police. The state attorney general’s office is handling the prosecution. Smith is being represented
in court by Sterling attorney James Fagerman. Court records say Smith made a series of withdrawals from an elderly woman’s bank accounts and took out loans on the victim’s property. The crimes involved accounts at Amcore and Midland States Banks, authorities said. Smith was manager of the
Oregon branch of Rockfordbased Amcore Bank, which was sold to Effingham-based Midland States Bank in January 2011. Court records don’t indicate whether Smith committed her crimes in her role as a bank employee. According to the bill of indictment: Smith made the withdrawals
between Aug. 2, 2006 and April 15, 2010, from accounts held at Amcore and Midland States in the name of the victim, a Dixon resident. Smith also took out a mortgage loan on the woman’s house and, as a result, obtained more than $100,000. In April 2007, Smith, using the victim’s power of attorney, took out a $55,000 residential
mortgage loan from Amcore Bank on property owned by the victim in the 800 block of North Ottawa Avenue. It was done without the woman’s authority. In April 2010, Smith transferred $1,855 from the woman’s bank account to Smith’s account without the victim’s consent. Smith made other withdrawals as well.
