Iowa DNR Water Summary records third-wettest year in 144 years of record keeping

This year has been the third wettest in the 144 years of record keeping for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources Water Summary Update. The water year is measured from Oct. 1 through Sept. 30. A soggy September brought an average rainfall of 6.29 inches across the state.

By JAKE WADDINGHAM CNA staff reporter

Depending on where you were in Iowa this year, farmers were either asking for a break from the rain or hoping for a storm to change course and give the crops a necessary drink.

The average rainfall of 6.29 inches across the state in September helped push the yearly total to the

third-wettest year in 144 years of record keeping, according to the Iowa Department of Natural Resource’s Water Summary Update.

It is the wettest water year since 1986.

The 2016 Water Year recorded a statewide average of almost 45 inches, 9.6 inches more than normal. The DNR’s water year is measured from Oct. 1 through Sept. 30.

“There has been quite a bit of variability; the south

central and southeastern parts of the state have been drier than usual,” said Iowa’s State Climatologist Harry Hillaker. “It is just luck of the draw, or bad luck of the draw, depending on how you look at it.”

Hillaker said the north central and northeast parts of the state have received above-normal amounts of rain. The next storm system expected late today into Wednesday is also expected to produce the heaviest

rain totals in this part of the state.

September rain totals varied from 0.9 inches at Fairfield to 17.25 inches near Nora Springs, about 10 miles east of Mason City.

Charles City had the highest water year precipitation total with more than 60 inches of rain.

“Most of Iowa has had a good break from the rainfall,” Hillaker said.

The general election will occur in about two weeks, and in Adair County, all positions up for reelection are unopposed for the incumbents.

It’s expected Adair County will have about a 70 percent voter turnout for the general election Nov. 8, which is not unusual for the type of election.

There are three Adair County Board of Supervisors positions open for the incumbents Matt Wedemeyer, David L. Homan and John A. Twombly. Incumbent Mindy Schaefer is running for auditor and incumbent Jeffrey L. Vandewater is running for sheriff.

County Board of Supervisors Matt Wedemeyer Age: 31 Of: Casey Party: Republican Work history: Wedemeyer has been a real estate broker for 13 years, farmer for about 12 years and has been an Adair County supervisor from 2009 to present.

Why do you want to remain a supervisor? “In the last eight years that I’ve been there, we’ve made a lot of improvements. Whether it’s the roads, the infrastructure, just county-wide, we’ve made a lot of improvements and I want to continue to see it as it goes forward.”

What do you think you bring to the position that someone else doesn’t? “I think being younger has helped. It gives a new perspective to things. When I got on, I think I was probably 45 years younger than the next guy. I think it brings a whole new dynamic to it, just being younger, as far as having a younger viewpoint on things. ... With different business experiences, I’m not just a farmer, I’ve been involved in all kinds of things. Together, I think it brings a needed advantage to the county.”

David L. Homan Age: 70 Of: Fontanelle Party: Republican Work history: Homan worked for six and a half years for the state of Iowa before beginning a 31-year ADAIR | 2A

Presidential race turns to Florida with voting underway TAMPA, Florida (AP) — With the race for the White House speeding to an end, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are campaigning Tuesday in swing state Florida, where tens of thousands of voters are already flocking to the polls.

Trump, on the final day of a three-day Florida swing, has been denouncing the “disgusting” media that promotes “phony polls” show-

ing him trailing Clinton in this and other battleground states.

“The media isn’t just against me. They’re against all of you,” Trump told cheering supporters Monday in St. Augustine. He added, “I believe we’re actually winning.”

Trump, who must win Florida to have any chance at the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presiden-

cy, is scheduled to attend three Florida campaign events. Clinton, who can win the presidency with or without Florida, is making just one appearance, in the southern part of the state.

Her confidence surging, Clinton is also eyeing a new Democratic majority in the Senate. Her campaign has been attacking Republican Senate candidates in Florida and New Hampshire.

On Monday, the Democratic nominee campaigned alongside New Hampshire Gov. Maggie Hassan, who is locked in a tight Senate race against Republican incumbent Kelly Ayotte. They got an assist from Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who was merciless as she seized on recent revelations of Trump’s predatory sexual language and several allegations of sexual assault.

“He thinks that because he has a mouth full of Tic Tacs, he can force himself on any woman within groping distance,” Warren charged. “I’ve got news for you Donald: Women have had it with guys like you.”

Trump, in an interview with WGIR radio in New Hampshire, called the accusations “total fiction.”

He lashed out at his latest accuser, former adult film

performer Jessica Drake, who said Saturday that he had grabbed and kissed her without permission and offered her money to visit his hotel room a decade ago.

“One said, ‘He grabbed me on the arm.’ And she’s a porn star,” Trump said.

He added, “Oh, I’m sure she’s never been grabbed before.”

“Starting late (today) into Wednesday, there is a good storm system moving in ... with some rain expected everywhere in the state.”

Hillaker said the temperature for October has been about five degrees above average. The extended forecast expects that trend to continue through November, but Hillaker said the projected rainfall models are unclear what to expect.

According to the 2016 Water Summary, stream flow conditions remain high for nearly the entire state in September.

Harvest The parts of the state that have received more rain are seeing a delay in the fall harvest.

“It has delayed the harvest in some areas, creating unfavorable conditions to get the crop out,” Hillaker said. “It

As the war of words plays out, hundreds of thousands of Floridians are voting.

Tuesday marks the second day of early in-person voting. Early voting by mail began two weeks ago.

Nearly 300,000 Florida voters showed up for the first day of in-person early voting on Monday, new totals from state election officials showed. Altogether, more than 1.6 million Floridians have voted so far.

Traditionally, Republicans have run up a large advantage in mail-in-ballots, while Democrats rely on early voting to boost their turnout numbers.

But this year the Democrats and Republicans are running early even. So far, slightly more than 665,000 Republican voters have cast ballots in the state, compared to slightly more than 658,000 Democrats.

Another 300,000 voters with no party affiliation have also voted.

At the same time, a new national poll shows young voters turning to Clinton now that the race has settled down to two main candidates. Clinton now leads among likely voters 18 to 30 years in age by 60 percent to 19 percent, according to a new GenForward survey.

is just wet enough to raise compaction issues, which can cause a lot of damage to the soil structure.”

Aaron Saeugling, field agronomist for Iowa State University Extension, said the soil structure in southwest Iowa tends to have a higher percentage of clay, so fields tend to drain differently than farmland in north central or northeast Iowa.

“If you go back a couple of years, just east of Creston we had a lot of prevent-plant acres because it was too wet that spring,” Saeugling said.

“Ironically, even though it has been one of the wettest (water summary) years, yields are trending to be above average in this part of the state.”

Saeugling added: “Soybean harvest is later than usual because of the rainfall in September. On a positive note, pastures remain green so we can get active grazing, which is a benefit for our cow-calf producers.” ready were solidly in her corner, and now young whites are moving her way, according to the survey by the Black Youth Project at the University of Chicago with the Associated PressNORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

With Election Day two weeks away, Trump’s electoral map looks bleak.

Trump’s campaign manager Kellyanne Conway outlined a path to 270 electoral votes over the weekend that banks on victories in Florida, Ohio, Iowa and North Carolina along with New Hampshire and Maine’s 2nd Congressional District. Assuming Trump wins all of those — and he currently trails in many — he would earn the exact number of electoral votes needed to win the presidency and no more.

Meanwhile, Trump and his party got fresh political ammunition with news that premiums will go up sharply next year under President Barack Obama’s health care law, and many consumers will be down to just one insurer. Before taxpayer-provided subsidies, premiums for a midlevel benchmark plan will increase an average of 25 percent across the 39 states served by the federally run online market, according to a report from the Department of Health and Human Services.

Some states will see much bigger jumps, others less.

stint as technician in the Adair County Engineer’s Office under the county engineer. He retired in 2009 before being elected to the Adair County Board of Supervisors from 2009 to present.

Why do you want to remain a supervisor? “I think that the current Board of Supervisors that we have is an excellent board and it seems like we work well together. I’ve seen a lot of progress and, prior to the 31 years that I worked for the county, I could see there were needs for a lot of improvement. And, I think I’ve seen some of the best years the county’s had since I’ve been on the supervisors.

That’s not to be bragging, but I think it’s made quite a difference.”

What do you think you bring to the position that someone else doesn’t? “I think I bring experience working with the secondary roads in the engineer department and working in the field. I worked as construction inspector and know the roads pretty well and know the bridges and their shape.

The engineering background gives me a little added advantage for running for supervisor. ... I think the county’s in good shape and I think we’re going to continue being in good shape.”

John A. Twombly Age: 69 Of: Greenfield Party: Republican Work history: Twombly worked as station manager at the United States Postal Service in Kansas before becoming a postmaster in Kansas and Nebraska. He retired from the military and

civil service in 1992, and the next year, he moved back to Greenfield. Twombly was a Greenfield City Council member from 1995 to 1999.

He has been a supervisor from 2009 to present.

Why do you want to remain a supervisor? “There’s a few reasons why I ran in the beginning and I’m still working on those. The main issues are roads and bridges.

Just like all other counties in Iowa, we’re underfunded and undermanned. We’re using money to repair roads and bridges, and I’d like to see that continue. ... The other board members are interested in that, also. ... I think we all feel in the rural economy, we need the infrastructure. That’s our main economy in Adair County, the farmers, and we need the roads and bridges to transport the crops.”

What do you think you bring to the position that someone else doesn’t? “I think I’ve had a well-rounded experience. I’ve had other experience at other levels of the government. I’ve worked with unions in the past, so I have experience with unions. We have unions at the sheriff’s department and secondary roads. I have managerial experience, so I know how to manage and how they should treat their people.”

County Auditor Mindy Schaefer Age: 42 Of: Greenfield Work history: Schaefer worked as accounts payable position at Computer Tree in Creston until 2001.

From 2001 to 2008, she was the Union County elections deputy at Union County Courthouse and then became Adair County auditor from 2008 to present.

Why do you want to re-

main auditor? “I love my job. I love helping the people. Getting that person that’s voted for the first time, when they come to register when they’re 18, I love that. I like making sure the county runs smoothly on the financial side of it. I just love my job.”

What do you think you can bring to the position that someone else doesn’t?

“I bring excellent customer service. I have 15 years of experience with county government, and the auditor’s office in particular, so I’m well rounded with what I can do in the office. Our office wears a lot of hats. We are human resources. We are accounts payable. We are elections. ... And, I’m well rounded enough to be able to do all of that.”

County Sheriff Jeffrey L. Vandewater Age: 43 Of: Rural Adair County Work history: Vandewater worked an internship with Adair County Sheriff’s Office while in college before becoming part of the Nebraska State Patrol in 1996 in North Platte, Nebraska. The next year, he joined the Adair County Sheriff’s Office. He has been sheriff since 2014.

Vandewater is also a firearms, defensive tactics and pepper-spray instructor.

Why do you want to remain sheriff? “I’ve accomplished a few of my goals in my two years since becoming sheriff. I personally conduct yearly compliance checks on our registered sex offenders in the county, I have made a commitment to courthouse security and personally sit in on court service days when the district court judges are present at the courthouse. ... One of my priorities was to better or further my rela-

tionship with the media and news outlets. I have tried hard to do that and I think I have. During my first two fiscal budget years, I returned to the (Adair County) Board of Supervisors or the county general fund just over $232,000. That is money that I could have used, but did not want to waste or spend foolishly. ... I wish to continue as sheriff for many reasons. First, it’s all about serving the people. We provide a service to the people and I like that. I like the fact that we are a smaller county population-wise and have the opportunity to make lasting relationships within the community. This applies to the citizens as well as other organizations.”

What do you think you can bring to the position that someone else doesn’t?

“I think I’ve built and kept those relationships over the years. Adair County is a great place to be sheriff.

With all the craziness in law enforcement across the country now, I’d rather be in no other place than Adair County. The vast majority of the public, here anyway, as opposed to any large metropolitan area, are still in support of law enforcement.

They want us to out doing our job and we appreciate their support. ... I think we have a long history of fine, well-respected sheriffs in Adair County, going back to the early 1950s. ... I figure those guys before me had it rough as well, that I must maintain that tradition and keep our office going in the right direction. Make no mistake, all of my employees keep this boat, which is the Adair County Sheriff’s Office, going. I just try to steer us in the right direction and make slight course adjustments as necessary.”

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, October 25, 2016

All eyes are on Hillary and Trump Topical humor Argus Hamilton

HOLLYWOOD – God bless America, and how’s everybody?

Hillary Clinton in the debate Wednesday blurted out the top-secret time it takes for the military to respond to a president’s order for nuclear attack, then Trump wouldn’t promise to recognize the results of the votes. How scary is this election? Mexico just agreed to build a wall no matter who wins.

Donald Trump made news Wednesday saying he might not accept the results of the November election. No one knew you could do that. If that’s the case then I refuse to accept the results of the Oklahoma-Ohio State and the Oklahoma-Houston games and I look forward to an undefeated season.

Hillary Clinton was gracious when she addressed the black-tie Al Smith Dinner in Manhattan Thursday at the Waldorf-Astoria.

She’s used to receiving a $250,000 speaking fee when she addresses dinners like this. Her talk is entitled “The Importance of Free Speech.”

The Wall Street Journal fore-

Letters to the editor

Abortion is wrong From Velma Riegel Creston

Hillary Clinton calls herself a champion of children. She wants each child to reach their potential.

However, this is only if she can see these children – if they have been born. She is also a champion of abortion for the entire nine months of a pregnancy. Apparently, if they are not born yet, they have no value, no rights. She would have you believe that abortion is a health issue of the mother. Most abortions end an inconvenient pregnancy.

Obviously, every person on the face of the earth is a survivor of those first nine months of their lives. Those nine months, when

we went from a couple of cells to a complete human being, are the most important and most amazing nine months of our entire lives.

Each one of us is a unique individual. No one else is exactly like you. Even identical twins are not completely alike. The loss of millions of unique people since 1973 is an American tragedy.

“Before I formed you in the womb, I know you, and before you were born, I consecrated you.”– Jeremiah 1:5 “You were there while I was being formed in utter seclusion. You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe.” – Psalm 139:15-16 God has seen you as somebody from the very beginning.

Running letters to the editor From Sharon and Bob Eklund Afton

We certainly hope all candidates running for local offices take advantage of a “letter to the editor” to state their personal credentials and agendas or toot their own horns, so to speak.

When a phone complaint was voiced to the editor that a certain can-

didate for Union County Supervisor got three long full columns of what equals free advertising (campaigning?), he said any other candidate can do likewise. We hope they all do.

Note the article was over three times the allowed length of 300 words stated in “policies,” which also states: “Once a person becomes a candidate for a political office, letters to the editor will no longer be accepted from that person, etc.”

casts tightening polls during the last two weeks of the presidential campaign. U.S. voter interest appears to be peaking at the right time. The cable TV news ratings could hit an all-time high on Election Day unless of course they find out who robbed Kim Kardashian.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton campaigned in full force Friday after the debate and the Al Smith Dinner signaled that the race just hit the final turn. All eyes are on Hillary and Trump. They’ve got Mike Pence and Tim Kaine speaking in towns so small the fast food clerks speak English.

Donald Trump brought up that Hillary was fired by the House Watergate Committee in 1974 for falsifying evidence against President Nixon. What a wrongful firing. To have been able to think up something Nixon didn’t do shouldn’t get you fired, it should win you the Nobel Prize for Creativity.

The Nobel Prize Committee announced Friday they are still trying to track down Bob Dylan in order to give him his prize. It’s always

something. Last week, Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature even though Donald Trump says the voted was rigged against The Art of the Deal.

Johnny Manziel was sued by a second Hollywood Hills property owner for trashing a mansion during parties he threw when he leased it this year. He’ll get no sermons from me. It’s part of everyone’s growing up process to learn that alcohol is not the answer, but it was always my first guess.

Phil Mickelson told CBS Sports he hopes to win on the PGA win tour next year by improving his driving. He’s still the most popular player on the PGA Tour and he’s the most fun to follow. Phil Mickelson’s fans don’t come out to see him play, they come out to play chicken with his tee shots.

Mel Gibson drew raves with Hacksaw Ridge six years after Hollywood exiled him after he was secretly recorded by his Russian girlfriend in an angry racist rant.

It’s sad. How can a guy who’s seen all the racial and social progress we

made in the last fifty years forget that all Russians are spies.

The Academy Awards was protested by older actors who lost their voting privileges for the next Oscars as the rolls were purged for diversity. Racial groups get annoyed at how the movies portray them. I plan to boycott the Oscars because Hollywood always makes my people play the Confederates.

The World Health Organization announced Friday the lack of ability to attract a sex partner is a handicap and a disability. This is ominous. If you give today’s Americans a choice between sex and the parking spot at the grocery store closest to the door, the species could be extinct in 40 years.

Volkwagen neared a $15-billion settlement with plaintiffs Monday for rigging the car computer to cheat the emissions test. The car spews toxic fumes. Just think, if back in the ‘30s Volkswagen had been able to partner up with Samsung, Hitler might have been successfully blown up.

Letters to the editor

Support is appreciated From Lois Monday Supervisor Creston

I would like to take this opportunity to let the taxpayers of Union County know what your board of supervisors have accomplished these last four to six years. We have worked hard in

paying down the debt, improving teamwork with the other county offices and among ourselves and lowering our tax levy.

I ask you to not forget the past and the fiasco that was here before I became a board member and remember the present and how far we have come and what we, a board that works as

a team, can accomplish in the future.

We know there are a lot more things that need to be done, such as getting our roads in better conditions, and we appreciate your patience as we move forward.

Your continued support is appreciated.

Support needed for passenger railroads From Jim Garrett Creston

should review how our elected representative feels about this issue. Congressman David Young has voted six times to defund Amtrak or eliminate service including votes that would likely abolish the California Zephyr through Creston. (H.R. 2577 & H.R. 749 with amendments). Amtrak spends nearly $1.1 million annually in Iowa with almost all of that in Council Bluffs, also part of the Third District. This is in addition to $650,000 in employee wages.

Additionally, Amtrak isn’t just planning improvements for Creston, there are upgrades slated for Burlington, Fort Madison and Ottumwa that will total well over a $4 million.

Passenger rail service has set ridership records in recent years and Amtrak currently covers 93 percent of its operating cost.

Their debt has been reduced and they are expanding into new markets. Economic development expands along passenger routes,

a phenomenon that can be found in our neighboring states Illinois, Minnesota and Missouri. In the future, major economic activities will be found along rail lines and those lines offering passenger service will see the bulk of that activity.

Yes, Jim, this is a golden opportunity, but it is only one that survives if Amtrak survives. For that to be assured, we need representation that sponsors that goal and supports rural Iowa economic opportunities. Jim Mowrer has pledged continued support for passenger rail and Essential Air Service funding and the travel options they offer rural Iowans.

(Young also voted to eliminate Essential Air Service funding). As Mr. Stalker said, “change is inevitable.” Well, a change in congressional representation will sure go a long way toward bettering our community and rural economic opportunities, and that is a goal worthy of striving for.

I have always enjoyed Jim Stalker’s letters to the editor. They very often center around community building, and as citizens, we should all involve ourselves in that pursuit.

I took special interest in his most recent letter in which he expounds on the virtues of Amtrak and their proposed $1 million investment in Creston. Jim’s view of Amtrak is backed by a large majority of Iowa’s Third Congressional District electorate. A 2013 poll indicates that 87 percent want passenger service increased or to remain the same, 75 percent would support an additional daylight train east and west through southern Iowa and 73 percent support increased or current level federal funding. (On those three questions, Republicans support was 82 percent, 64 percent and 59 percent respectively).

With that in mind, perhaps we

Tokyo festival produces heartwarming trilogy of Asian films TOKYO (AP) — Cannes-winning Brillante Mendoza is among the three directors tapped by the Tokyo International Film Festival to create “Reflections,” a trilogy that depicts the intertwining of stories among Asian nations.

Be it a Filipino worker in Japan or a Japanese bureaucrat in love with a Cambodian woman, the main characters are old and lonely, caught in an Asian nation other than their own, in films that reflect the real-life erasing of barriers in this region.

Premiering Wednesday, “Reflections” marks the first production effort by a festival still struggling to gain stature.

And so the work is a heartwarming experiment, despite its relatively modest budget of 10 million yen ($100,000) for each of the three sequences.

Mendoza’s poetic piece “Dead Horse” centers on an elderly Filipino, who is deported after having worked for decades as a laborer in Japan, betting on horses as well as taking care of them.

His state is actually common: Filipinos are the most numerous foreigners in Japan, after Koreans and Chinese. Mendoza did research, talking to Filipinos working in Japan. And shooting in the snow meant a fun challenge for Mendoza.

The horses form a metaphor for the hero’s downtrodden plight, as well as his integrity. The close-ups of actor Lou Veloso’s forlorn face, speckled with the snowflakes of northern Japan, which he would never see in his tropical home, are tragically majestic.

“After 30 years, he doesn’t have a family any more. You

lose the connection not only with his family but with everyone around him. It’s a sad situation, but, in fact, it is really happening,” Mendoza said in a recent interview.

At a time when Japan is widely criticized for not being repentant enough about World War II atrocities, a piece of Japan that’s surprisingly lovable is presented by Cambodian director Sotho Kulikar in her “Beyond the Bridge.”

The man, played by Masaya Kato, returns after two decades to Cambodia, where he had a relationship with a local woman. He stands deep in thought on the bridge, built by the Japanese, destroyed during Cambodia’s civil war and then rebuilt, a moment symbolic of an ideal love that can overcome cultural differences, separation or even death.

The theme of unshaken love was based on Kulikar’s parents. Her father died when she was 2, killed in the war. Kulikar wanted to send a message to Cambodian people not to forget or bury the painful past, but to embrace it, she said.

“That is a big mistake for us because we cannot emotionally move on, if we have not accepted it,” said Kulikar, whose next film, a documentary, is about the culture of rice, which she believes also connects Cambodians with Japanese.

“I think the world has so many problems already I don’t think we should look into the bad parts only. We should look into the beautiful part of each country, each nation. Because we need to live together. Otherwise, there will be war again,” she added.

PEOPLE

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, October 25, 2016

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Pop idol Bobby Vee, the boyish, grinning 1960s singer whose career was born when he took a Midwestern stage as a teenager to fill in after the 1959 plane crash that killed rock ‘n’ roll stars Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson, has died. He was 73.

Vee, whose hits included the chart-topping “Take Good Care of My Baby” and who helped a young Bob Dylan get his start, died Monday of advanced Alzheimer’s disease, said his son, Jeff Velline. Vee was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2011, and performed his last show that year.

Vee had been in memory care at The Wellstead of Rogers & Diamondcrest in Rogers, about 25 miles northwest of Minneapolis, for the past 13 months and in hospice care in recent weeks, his son said.

Vee died peacefully surrounded by family, Velline said, calling it “the end of a long hard road.”

He said his father was “a person who brought joy all over the world. That was his job.”

Born Robert Velline in Fargo, North Dakota, Vee was only 15 when he took the stage in Moorhead, Minnesota, after the Feb. 3, 1959, plane crash in Iowa that killed Holly, Valens and Richardson on their way to the concert. That dark day in rock history was commemorated by singer-songwriter Don McLean in his 1972 pop song “American Pie” as “The Day The Music Died.”

The call went out for local acts to replace Hol-

ly at his scheduled show at the Moorhead National Guard Armory. Vee and his 2-week-old band volunteered, along with three or four other bands.

The show’s emcee, Charlie Boone, then a disc jockey at KFGO Radio, turned to Vee and asked him the name of his band. Vee looked at the shadows of his bandmates on the floor and answered: The Shadows.

“I didn’t have any fear right then,” Vee recalled in a 1999 interview with The Associated Press.

“The fear didn’t hit me until the spotlight came on, and then I was just shattered by it. I didn’t think that I’d be able to sing. If I opened my mouth, I wasn’t sure anything would come out.”

Vee called his debut a milestone in his life, and “the start of a wonderful career.”

Within months the young singer and The Shadows, which included his older brother Bill on lead guitar, recorded Vee’s “Suzie Baby” for Soma Records in Minneapolis. It was a regional hit, and Vee soon signed with Liberty Records.

He went on to record 38 Top 100 hits from 1959 to 1970, hitting the top of the charts in 1961 with the Carole King-Gerry Goffin song “Take Good Care of My Baby,” and reaching No. 2 with the follow-up, “Run to Him.” Other Vee hits include “Rubber Ball,” ‘’The Night Has A Thousand Eyes,” ‘’Devil or Angel,” ‘’Come Back When You Grow Up,” ‘’Please Don’t Ask About Barbara” and “Punish Her.” Besides his clear, ring-

ing voice, Vee also was a skilled rhythm guitarist and occasional songwriter. He racked up six gold singles, but saw his hits diminish with the British Invasion of The Beatles and other English groups in the mid-1960s.

Vee kept recording into the 2000s, and maintained a steady touring schedule. But he began having trouble remembering lyrics during performances, and he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2011. He performed his last show that year, billed only as his retirement, during an annual community fundraiser that his family holds near their home in St. Joseph, Minnesota, about 65 miles northwest of Minneapolis.

But he didn’t announce his diagnosis until a year later on his website.

In a 2013 interview with The Associated Press, Vee said he knew his abilities were diminishing and he didn’t want to put his family through a public decline.

“It’s not getting any better, I can tell you that,” Vee said. “But I’m doing the best I can.”

Vee still released a new album, “The Adobe Sessions,” a loose jam session recorded with family members in Vee’s adobe garage north of Tucson, Arizona. The 2014 album featured some of Vee’s favorite songs from Townes Van Zandt, Gordon Lightfoot and Ricky Nelson. It was released on the 55th anniversary of the Holly plane crash.

The album also included Vee’s cover of Bob Dylan’s “The Man in Me,” a nod to the folk-rock legend who got his start in

Vee’s band in Fargo.

Dylan grew up in Hibbing, a town on northern Minnesota’s Iron Range, and briefly played with Vee’s band. Although their time playing together was short, Dylan had a lasting effect on Vee’s career: It was Dylan, himself going by the name Elston Gunn when he hammered on the piano at a couple of The Shadows’ gigs, who suggested Vee change his last name from Velline to Vee. In his “Chronicles: Volume One” memoir, Dylan recalled that Vee “had a metallic, edgy tone to his voice and it was as musical as a silver bell.” When Dylan performed in St. Paul in 2013, he saluted Vee in the audience and performed “Suzie Baby.”

Vee and his wife, Karen, were married for more than 50 years. She died of kidney failure in 2015 at age 71. The couple had four children, including sons who performed with Vee. Family members said Vee’s memory wasn’t affected so much by Alzheimer’s as his speech.

During the AP interview in 2013, he answered questions but would become tongue-tied searching for the right word.

Vee tried unconventional methods to alleviate his Alzheimer’s symptoms, from chiropractor visits to acupuncture, and also renewed his passion for painting.

And while he sometimes wished he could do the things that once came easily, Vee said he was “not going to cry about it.”

“God brought me home,” he said. “And that’s the deal.”

Candle wicks won’t make you sick Dear Heloise: I really enjoy candles, and have many that I’ve purchased when traveling across the U.S. Is there any concern today about the METAL WICKS? I believe years ago there was a risk of lead, but how about today? – Cheryl S. in Arizona No worries, Cheryl. According to the National Candle Association, there is a very small chance that a candle purchased today would have lead in its wick, since the U.S. banned lead in wicks in 2003. A candle purchased today is much more likely to have a metal wick made with tin or zinc (which is nontoxic), or all-cotton or cotton-paper wicks. Metal-core wicks are more often found in votive candles and container candles because they keep the wick upright as the wax melts. – Heloise HALLOWEEN HINT Dear Heloise: I buy a variety of candy bars to hand out for trick-or-treaters.

I separate the candy bars with peanuts or peanut butter from candy bars without peanuts and peanut butter.

Although I don’t believe the candy without peanuts can be affected by the candy with peanuts, children with peanut allergies can choose a candy bar they like and will be able to enjoy. Hopefully it

Hints from Heloise saves some tears from having their treats taken away because they cannot eat them.

It was about a week after Halloween, so the kids still had some remnants of goodies and stuff from Halloween. We were sitting on the bed watching a movie when the 3-year-old started crying. She had bitten into a glow necklace and had the color all in her mouth, on the bed and on her clothes. All I could think about was the poison-control hotline. They were quick and so helpful.

They assured me that it was not poison and she would be all right. All was fine, but if I had it to do over again, all glow toys would go in

National Digest

SWCC men ranked 11th in preseason rankings The National Junior College Athletic Association released its preseason men’s basketball rankings for the 20162017 season.

Southwestern Community College enters the season as the No. 11 team in NJCAA Division II. “Coaches know better than to get excited about preseason rankings,” said Southwestern Community College coach Todd Lorensen. “Take a peek at the college football preseason compared to today. We have a great nucleus returning and added some quality players to go along with them, but ultimately we have 30 games over the next four plus months that will determine what we are and are not.”

The Spartans did not appear in the 2015-2016 preseason polls but appeared in every regular season poll during the 15-16 campaign. They climbed as high as fourth in the country en route to a 25-6 season and an Iowa Community College Athletic Conference regular season title.

“It’s nice to have some known commodities in Jordan Johnson, Keshawn Wilson and Calvin Chambers. All three were all league performers and we expect even more from them this year,” Lorensen said.

Southwestern opens the regular season at home on Nov. 1 vs.

Graceland JV before traveling to Southeastern Community College on Nov. 4.

Broncos thrash Texans DENVER — (AP) The Denver Broncos ruined Brock Osweiler’s homecoming Monday night, incessantly hurrying, hitting and harassing their former teammate in a 27-9 win over his Houston Texans.

Coach Gary Kubiak returned to the sideline following his second health scare in three years, and he liked what he saw as the Broncos (5-2) snapped a twogame skid in sending the overwhelmed Texans home at 4-3.

C.J. Anderson and Devontae Booker energized Denver’s sputtering ground game, both running for a touchdown. Anderson gained 107 yards on 16 carries and Booker had 83 on 17 hand-offs.

But the big story was Trevor Siemian, Peyton Manning’s surprise successor, outplaying Osweiler, who was groomed to be Denver’s next QB but instead bolted to Houston in free agency, famously declaring the Texans gave him the better chance to be successful.

Not on this night.

Osweiler left for bigger numbers in Texas -both in his bank account and his stat sheet -- but he spent the whole game quickly getting rid of the ball.

AFTON — Youth has proved a hurdle to overcome at times for the East Union Eagles, but the squad has found its rhythm within the first few rounds of postseason play.

East Union (16-16) took down Lenox (8-17) in three sets to move to a matchup with Class 1A No. 4 Grand View Christian (32-14) set for Thursday at 7 p.m. in Afton.

The Eagles breezed through the first two sets with wins of 25-14 and 25-13 before squeaking out a third set win by a score of 25-23.

“I’m really excited about how we played tonight,” East Union coach Gail Thatcher said. “We really played as a team. All aspects were working, our passing our setting, we were talking well.”

Alissa Weinkoetz led the way for much of the night with her aggressive play at the net. Repeated kills from the freshman hitter pumped the gym and the Eagles full

of energy.

“You start a freshmen early in the year and they’re going to struggle some. She’s finding her game and finding how it is,” Thatcher said.

“Her and Megan (Mitchell) are starting to click together as setter and hitter.”

Mara Weis’ play helped

fuel the early run, along with consistent play across the board.

“Mara brought it on. Olivia Eckels is really finding her role as an outside hitter. ...It sets out hitters up well when our back row passes in front of the 10-foot line, which was really important

tonight,” Thatcher said.

Weinkoetz and Weis both totalled 12 kills.

A serving run from Eckels helped the Eagles shoot out to an 11-4 run early in the first, and the East Union kept the Tigers from putting away points with any consistency. The Eagles held a

double digit for large chunks of the next two sets.

Panther freshmen and JV football seasons end STAFF REPORT Junior varsity ADEL —The Creston/O-M junior varsity team ended its season Monday, Oct. 17 with a 38-24 loss to the ADM Tigers.

The loss dropped the Panthers to 2-5.

Eli Loudon threw for 232 yards and three touchdowns on 12-of-22 passing. Loudon also rambled his way to 111 yards on the ground and a score.

Michael Scherer caught three passes for 97 yards and two scores.

Cody Wagner grabbed a touchdown as well, piling up 75 yards on three receptions.

Rylan Luther ran his way to 74 yards.

Defensively, Bryce Fitzgerald intercepted two passes to lead the defense. Luther and Dalten Bierle had seven tackles each and Tristan Travis had five.

“Tonight was as tough of a start to a football game we have had all year. We had a few miscues that led to easy ADM points,” coach Kevin Cooper said. “I was really proud of how our kids competed in the second half. We came back and gave ourselves a chance, we just weren’t able to convert.”

6-1.

The Panthers crushed ADM 28-0 and had big games from Luther and Andy Mills. Luther ran for 165 yards and two touchdowns and Mills worked his way to 149 yards and a score. Mills also had eight tackles in the win.

Gavin Gillam went 5-of-9 through the air for 56 yards and threw a touchdown pass to Brant Looney.

Camden Peterson recorded a sack and three different Panthers picked up sacks, those being Sam Chapman, Eli Hartman and Luther.

“One of our best of the year,”

coach Kevin Cooper said. “We were missing a few kids, and we had some kids step up and they did in a big way. Our offensive line deserves a lot of credit, because you can’t rush for 330 yards, without great blocking.”

CARROLL — The Panthers outlasted the Tigers in the longest and highest-scoring game of the season for the freshmen team as Creston/O-M won 48-28.

Andy Mills ran for 245 yards and three touchdowns and also caught a pass for a touchdown. He led the defense with 10 tackles.

Southwest Valley ends season on high note Timberwolves finish turnaround campaign at 6-3 n

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

OAKLAND — Southwest Valley’s rushing game found success, particularly in the second half as the Timberwolves closed out their season with a 36-7 win at Riverside.

The Timberwolves rushed for 377 yards, mostly in the second half.

Riverside flustered Southwest Valley early.

“We came out a little sloppy in the first half,” said Southwest Valley coach Anthony Donahoo. “Credit to Riverside. Their record doesn’t indicate how hard-hitting they were.”

Mental mistakes cost Southwest Valley in the opening 24 minutes.

“We shot ourselves in the foot in the first half,” Donahoo said. “We had a lot of holding penalties, block in the backs. We got after them about focus.”

The Timberwolf offense found their rhythm in the second 24 minutes.

“We were able to sustain our blocks. We got a lot of guys rushing for yards. We got to the second level,”

Donahoo said. “We got after it in the second half.”

Southw e s t Valley’s d e f e n s e Donahoo kept Riverside’s offense in check all night. The Timberwolves came away with seven sacks and held the Bulldogs to seven points. Scott Palmer had three sacks while Hunter Postma had two sacks.

“The boys played hard,” Donahoo said. “It was a great way for the seniors to go out.”

MOUNT AYR: CONT. FROM | 7A

The Cardinals then caught fire the remainder of the first set.

Mount Ayr had no answer then, or the rest of the match, rattled by a dominant service run.

Treynor, ranked 11th in Class 2A, breezed through the next two sets to sweep Mount Ayr, ranked 15th, 3-0, 25-10, 25-13, 25-10.

The Cardinals (28-6) advance to the regional semifinals Thursday. Treynor will take on seventh-ranked St. Albert. The Saintes (24-4) dispatched Griswold in three straight sets, 25-19, 25-12, 2515, Monday.

Mount Ayr’s season comes to a close at 30-2.

Treynor won for the fifth time in the past six matches.

“We’re just clicking right now,” said Treynor coach Jeff Koenck. “We’re regaining what we had early on in the year. This is the time to do it. I’m proud of them.”

Behind the strong serving of Sydni Huisman, the Cardinals dominated the later two-thirds of the first set.

Huisman was on serve for 14 straight points as Mount Ayr had no answer for Huisman’s serve.

Huisman served at the weak spots in Mount Ayr’s back row.

“We started to pick on their poor passers,” Koenck said. “We worked really hard on our serve. We want to be aggressive. We want to be consistent and that work is paying off.”

Mount Ayr’s confidence started sagging after Huisman dropped in a couple of serves.

The lack of confidence was counter to a strong start over the first few points.

“We started off with a lot of momentum,” said Mount Ayr coach Tori Braby. “As soon as we made a couple of bad passes, then we automatically got in our head that we’re in trouble. Treynor took it away from there.”

The Raiderettes felt the pressure of the situation.

“Nerves definitely played a big role,” Braby said. “I

Mount Ayr senior Sadie Frost (6) and sophomore Keirston Klommhaus go up for a block during the third set of Monday’s Class 2A Region 5 volleyball match at Treynor.

The Raiderettes’ season came to a close with a three-set loss to the Cardinals.

couldn’t get our girls to calm down. Nerves played a bit part of it.”

Huisman’s serving struggled in the middle of the season.

She caught fire at the right time for the Cardinals.

“She’s a great server,” Koenck said. “For part of the season, she was starting to struggle. She was missing serves that she shouldn’t. It wasn’t anything we needed to change. We just said get your confidence back and she did.”

Huisman attacked the weak part of the Raiderettes back row. When Mount Ayr was able to make a good first pass it couldn’t quite set up the offense.

“They weren’t in system,” Koenck said. “We knew if we could keep them out of system, we’d get a lot of pushes and a lot of freeballs.”

Huisman finished 28-of-28 serving with four aces.

The long service run transpired with Raiderettes star hitter Kelcie Shields in the back row.

“We couldn’t get her in the front row,” Braby said.

“We know when she’s in the front row, we need to score.

We couldn’t get out of that rotation.”

The free balls Mount Ayr sent over led to easy swings for Treynor’s offense.

The Cardinals capitalized, led by Abby Tiarks and sophomore Konnor Sundmann.

Tiarks pounded home 17 kills on 23 attempts with two errors, for a .652 attack percentage. She added 13 assists. Sudmann had seven kills.

Huisman was also effective offensively. She slammed home six kills on 10 attempts with no errors, then dished out 24 assists.

“When we’re talking and passing the ball, we have a lot of options,” Koenck said.

“They don’t care who gets the glory. They want to win.

They’re doing it together and that makes all the difference.”

Treynor’s speed allowed them to hit through plenty of

single blocks.

“They were definitely great on the front row,” Braby said. “I’ve been saying all season long we need to get better on blocking. If you have hitters on their side and you don’t block them, you’re going to be in big trouble.”

Mount Ayr couldn’t keep up with the speed Treynor had.

“We knew they were a lot faster pace than what we’ve been going up against,” Braby said. “They’ve got six girls who are pretty quick.”

Treynor came in expecting a stiff test from the Pride of Iowa regular season and tournament champions.

“When you have a squad that’s 30-1, you have to respect them and be ready,” Koenck said.

Treynor started hot in the second set, jumping out to a 5-0 lead. The Cardinals scored 9-of-12 points at one spot to take a 17-6 lead and they rolled from there.

In the third set, the Cardinals took a 5-3 advantage and turned it into a commanding 14-5 edge then went on from there.

Shields led Mount Ayr with seven kills. Keirston Klommhaus had four kills.

Alyssa Johnson had seven assists.

Braby was proud of the team’s progress over the past four seasons. When the senior group of Kelcie Shields, Tessa Shields, Sadie Frost, Blair Glendenning and Macy Larsen were freshman, the Raiderettes went just 5-23.

“They’ve built our team up,” Braby said. “They were 30-2 this season. That’s going to be hard for any other team in Mount Ayr history to beat a record like that. It took a long time for them to get it going. I’m very proud of all of the girls.”

Braby credits the seniors with leading the turnaround.

“It’s a great group of seniors,” Braby said. “They’re going to be big shoes to fill.”

Braby is excited about what’s coming up though.

“Our JV kids went in there and were just as good as the varsity,” she said. “The foundation is there.”

Donahoo and the Timberwolves have much to be grateful for heading into the first full offseason under Donahoo’s tutelage.

“Especially with this being my first year being a head football coach, this is something I can hang my hat on,” Donahoo said.

“We saw how hard the boys worked. We’re going to build on it going into next year.”

The Timberwolves bid farewell to 12 seniors — Colby Cooper, Tanner Dixon, Evan Skelton, Jerad Shires, Preston Fleharty, Joey Kernen, Justice Myers, Scott Palmer, James Lamgo, Tyler Means, Hayden Bayles and Caleb Solari.

“I’m real proud of the way they finished their careers,” Donahoo said. “We had great senior leadership. They gave great effort.

We’re going to have to fill those spots.”

The building blocks are in place for another successful season next year.

But it starts with hard work this offseason.

“This builds momentum into next year,” Donahoo said. “We understand how much work it’s going to take, getting better in the offseason. Certainly the St. Albert and Earlham games are games we need to take.”

“We’re going to have the same offense and same defense. We’ll get better.”

Gossman was 16-of-16 on serves, and Lauren Mitchell was 15-of-15.

“We’ve been discussing that, staying in control of the game and not letting somebody grab our momentum from us or take the plays and come back,” Thatcher said.

Lenox did put up a fight at the end. Down 21-15, the Tigers mounted a rally and pulled the third set to a score of 23-22.

The effort was there in the end for Lenox, the Tigers just couldn’t mount a long enough run.

The Tigers’ season came to an end in disappointing fashion after a strong showing to get to the match in a win over Murray last Tuesday.

Shantelle Brown served 11-of-13 with two kills, six digs and four kills. Hannah Davis led the way with six kills. Jacy Stoaks had four kills. Katelyn Belding contributed 15 assists.

Seniors Brown and Stoaks played their last match as Lenox Tiger volleyball players.

“We’ve seen Shantelle (Brown) start to hit the ball even harder, and Jacy (Stoaks) jump-serving and being the quiet leader that she is in the middle, everywhere, she’s in all different spots now,” Lenox coach Sara Dukes said.

“They led this team the entire year, and they were stronger at the end.”

The Eagles were able to

Healthiest State Initiative unveils 2.0 Nov. 1 ANKENY – The Healthiest State Initiative invites Iowans to celebrate the successes of the last five years and learn how Iowans can engage in efforts to make Iowa the healthiest state in the nation.

view Home and Clearview staff of Clearfield has sponsored the Taylor County “Pink Out” to raise funds for Greater Regional Medical Center and CHI Health Corning cancer foundations.

These foundations help to improve the lives of those fighting the battle with all forms of cancer. Clearview Home is expanding its previous fundraising efforts to include three additional counties: Adams, Ringgold and Union. Also this year, they are changing from a “Pink Out” to a “Color Out,” in an effort to support everyone battling cancer, not just those fighting breast cancer.

In 2014, Clearview donated $650 to each foundation; and in 2015, $1,350 was donated to each foundation. This year, with four counties participating, the goal is to split at least $5,000 between the two cancer foundations and a Ringgold County health awareness project. In addition to raising money, they are also hoping to have a massive “Color Out” Nov. 10 and show the state of Iowa how big southwest Iowa’s hearts are.

The idea for the Pink Out came after a coworker was diagnosed with breast cancer.

“We wanted to support her but also make a difference in our community,” said Patty Parrish, owner of Clearview.

“The money we donate is used for whatever

ICAN launches initiative to help Iowans pay for further education HIAWATHA – The Iowa College Access Network (ICAN) announces a major initiative to remove financial barriers that often derail Iowans’ progress in pursuing education and training after high school.

The initiative, FAFSA Ready Iowa, promotes increasing the number of Iowans completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) – a form that is the first step in unlocking millions of dollars in grants and scholarships.

“Iowa lags behind other states in FAFSA completion,” said Rob Miller, president of the Iowa College Access Network. “Iowa has a FAFSA completion rate of about 41 percent, compared to a national average of 55 percent. That means many Iowans aren’t aware and taking advantage of the resources available to make education or training beyond high school more affordable. With average student-loan debt levels approaching $29,000 for Iowans, this is something we have to address.”

In fact, nationally more than $2.8 billion in grants and scholarships – money that doesn’t have to be repaid – went unclaimed in the 201516 school year. During the same time frame, Iowans left nearly $25 million on the table by not completing the form.

The FAFSA Ready Iowa initiative will increase the number of Iowans filing statewide to 70 percent by 2025.

“ICAN has worked for nearly 20 years in high schools across Iowa, and with Iowa families, to help them be better prepared for college and careers,” said John Davis, chairman of the ICAN board of directors. “This is our area of expertise, and we can make a difference in the lives of students across Iowa on a broader scale through this initiative.”

Currently, ICAN operates nine student-success centers statewide and assists with the completion of more than 6,000 FAFSA forms each year.

ICAN will begin supplementing this by working with more partners and volunteers to hold community- and schoolbased events to encourage a

better understanding of financial aid and the importance of filing the FAFSA. Through partnerships with school districts, community-based nonprofit organizations, colleges and businesses, ICAN will train and equip more resources to help Iowans complete this important task in paying for post-high school education or training.

Data shows that students have an 85 percent chance of being awarded financial aid by simply completing the form, yet many don’t take advantage of this free money.

“For many families, it’s a lack of awareness of the financial aid process, a lack of understanding that the form should be completed and a

lot of fear of the form itself,” said Tracie Pavon, director of student financial assistance at Simpson College.

Some FAFSA Ready Iowa events have already begun with more than 60 FAFSA-completion events scheduled in 42 locations across 34 cities. As the year progresses, additional events will be scheduled to meet the specific needs of communities and school districts.

To learn more about FAFSA Ready Iowa, visit www. icansucceed.org/fafsareadyia or contact a high school counselor.

To request an interview with an ICAN spokesperson, email bmorey@icansucceed. org or call 319-423-7708.
