$2.8 million will pay for upgrade By Chris Johnson Reporter Village officials have learned a $2.8 million loan for improvements to the wastewater treatment plant were approved. Village president Michael Harn received a letter notifying the village of the loan during Monday night’s board meeting. “We got our loan and we will need to approve it,� said Harn. “It will be on the next agenda to approve.� Village engineer Mick Gronewold, Fehr, Graham & Associates will attend the meeting Oct. 6 to explain the steps to approve the loan and proceed with the project. In July the board approved a $2.7 million plan for the upgrades and awarded the bid to Leander Construction, Canton, contingent on receiving the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) loan. Gronewold said when the village receives the notice of a loan commitment the bid can be awarded. Paperwork to complete the loan application may take another four to six weeks. Governor Pat Quinn today announced the $2.8 million loan for the village Sept. 11. The loan is a low-interest loan through the governor’s Illinois Clean Water Initiative. This investment will fund the upgrade and expansion of the existing wastewater treatment plant while creating
more than 100 jobs, according to press release from the Governor’s office. “Help is on the way for Forreston to improve their wastewater treatment system,� said Quinn. “That’s what our Clean Water Initiative is all about, helping make communities like Forreston even better places to live and work.� The loan will be used to upgrade and expand its existing wastewater treatment plant. The project will allow the village to maintain compliance with discharge limits and provide the capacity to treat all existing and future flows that reach the plant. This enables the village to comply with more stringent discharge limits, which will result in cleaner area waterways. The upgrades will include a new box screening and grit removal building, new equipment, repairs to existing tanks, and a new clarifier to increase the plant’s capacity. The payments on the loan will begin six months after the project is completed. According to the press release Forreston receives an additional benefit from the Governor’s Clean Water Initiative as these subsidized loans result in additional savings over the life of the loans. The wastewater project is expected to last through the fall of 2015. The village board will discuss the terms of the loan during the Oct. 6 board meeting.
Enrollment sees downward trend By Vinde Wells Editor Only two school districts in Ogle County are seeing an uptick in enrollment this year. For most districts, the downward trend that began a few years ago is continuing. The Forrestville Valley and Rochelle Township High School Districts, in opposite corners of the county, have slightly more students than last year. Forrestville Valley, a K-12 district, gained 24 students from last year to boost enrollment from 882 to 906, the first increase since 200708 when enrollment stood at 1,065. Rochelle High School gained 25 students for a current enrollment of 948 students in grade 9-12. Superintendent Richard Craven said the modest gain comes on the heels of three years of declining numbers. He anticipates another gain next year. “Because the current eighth grade is large, we expect to go up another 30

Tow Fund records are “sloppy� By Vinde Wells Editor The auditing firm conducting a forensic examination of Ogle County Sheriff Michael Harn’s Tow Fund is still trying to decipher the records. “There are frankly very sloppy records. Right now there are more questions than answers,� County Board Chairman Kim Gouker told the county board Tuesday. He said that while Sikich LLP, Naperville, has made “significant progress� with the examination, they still need more information. Gouker said he has a list of information needed that he plans to give to Harn.
Once Sikich examiners have the answers, they can complete their report, he said. Questions were raised late last year over how Harn had been handling money in the Tow Fund. He came under fire over expenditures from the fund, which included purchasing a new vehicle, flowers for Secretaries Day, a tent at the county fair, and $4,000 for the department’s Facebook page to be managed. Harn was defeated by Brian VanVickle, Rochelle, in his bid for re-election in the March Republican Primary. In May, the board approved engaging the forensic
services of Sikich to examine Tow Fund expenditures and revenues from the time it was implemented in 2011 to the present. The firm also does the county’s regular annual audits. The cost to undertake the forensic examination was $7,500. Last month the board approved spending up to $7,500 more to dig further into the financial records. Gouker told the board then that Sikich may not need all of the additional sum, or could, on the other hand, need more. In another matter, Gouker told the board that a field of 19 applicants has been
narrowed to two finalists for Ogle County Emergency Management Agency (OCEMA) Coordinator. He said the sheriff’s department is currently doing background checks on those two. At the August county board meeting, Gouker announced the resignation of Candace Humphrey, who held the post. Interviews were conducted by the Executive Committee, Gouker said, and he and vice chairman John Finfrock selected the finalists with input from Harn and VanVickle. OCEMA is part of the sheriff’s department.

The Forreston Journal was founded in 1865 by C.E. Slocum as the Forreston Herald. He later changed the name to Forreston Journal. The newspaper was purchased by Wesley W. Buckley in 1910. He died in December 1917, and the newspaper was taken over by his wife, Susan. In 1927, John J. Wagner and G.C. Terry, co-owners of the Tri-County Press, Polo, purchased the Forreston Journal. Terry bought out Wagner's interest in 1930, and the newspaper stayed in the Terry family until 1977, when Danny C. Terry sold out to B.F. Shaw Printing of Dixon, publisher of the Dixon Telegraph. Ogle County Newspapers also prints the Oregon Republican Reporter, Mt. Morris Times and Tri-County Press.

Oregon Masonic Lodge to celebrate sesquicentennial From A1 room from ceiling to floor, as well as major renovations to the women’s restroom. Items displayed in the new library include a lodge Bible copyrighted in 1859, books about the Masons, albums filled with photographs of lodge activities over the years, and numerous newspaper clippings. Also on display are a portrait of George Washington, who was a Mason, and an engraved trowel used in the ceremony to lay the cornerstone of the Ogle County Courthouse in 1890. Shaulis credited lodge member and tyler Leonard Jones and his wife Anne with collecting and organizing the

materials for the library. “They put in hours of work on this,� he said. The building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on Aug. 16, 2006. Shaulis said hopes the community will turn out to attend the rededication ceremony planned for Sept. 27 at 2 p.m. at the lodge. “We’d love to fill up our space,� he said. “It’s an opportunity to show off our building and talk about our outreach to the public to let them know what we do.� Officials from the Grand Lodge in Springfield will be on hand to conduct the same ceremony done at the lodge dedication in 1904. The annual banquet is planned later that evening at the Rock River Center. Shaulis, Jones, and fellow Mason Bob Hanes all talked about the importance of the lodge in their lives. Shaulis, 47, said he joined more than seven years ago because he admired the character of lodge members he knew from church. “The more I talked to people, the more I respected the organization,� he said. “You surround yourself with good people in order to become better.� Jones, 80, has been a Mason for 26 years. “It means I can come to lodge and enjoy friendship with
fellows and I can go out and do things in the community,� he said. Jones and Hanes, 79, attended Harmony Hills, a oneroom country school, together. Hanes, a lodge member for 56 years, said he enjoys what the lodge does for the community. “We are a charitable organization,� he said. “Our charity begins with our brother Masons and extends quite beyond that.� According to a history compiled by Hanes, the lodge secretary, the Masonic Lodge was first organized in Oregon on Oct. 2, 1848 with William Little as master, Dan Higby as senior warden, and Samuel McFarland as junior warden. The new lodge was to be known as Jerusalem Lodge No. 62. Four years later on Oct. 4, 1852 the Grand Lodge requested the surrender of the charter, jewels, and furniture of Jerusalem Lodge 62. Eight years after that, in October of 1863, the Grand Lodge declared Jerusalem Lodge 62 forfeited because their dues had not been paid and the items had not been returned. The circumstances quickly turned around, however, and later in 1863, under the sponsorship of Byron Lodge No. 274, a new charter was issued to Ruel Thorpe and the requisite number of members to form the Oregon Lodge.

The following year it was designated Oregon Lodge No. 420. Meetings were held on the Wednesday on or preceding each full moon. The first lodge hall was located in a building on the southeast corner of Franklin and Third Streets. Later it moved to the Burchell Building at 304 Washington St., where meetings were held until the present lodge building was completed. The Oregon Masonic Temple Association was incorporated as a non-profit organization on March 12, 1903 with Charles Gale as president, William J. Emerson as vice president, George Hittinger as secretary, and John Sheaff as treasurer.
The association purchased the land for their current building from Charles and Eva Etnyre. The cost of the building was $6,900, as nearly as can be determined. Architect fees were $276 and the land cost $1,200. The portion of the building owned by the association included the second and third floors and the space need to heat the floors, plus access to the lodge rooms. The association made a sizable income from renting the space for dances, banquets, and civic functions. The charge for the dance hall was $10, and $5 extra for use of the banquet hall and kitchen. The lodge today supports and
contributes to numerous local agencies and activities, as well as Masonic organizations. Agencies that have received donations include the Rock River Center; Village of Progress; Oregon High School’s Academic Bowl Team, Post Prom activities, and band uniforms fund; Oregon Chamber of Commerce for Candlelight Walk; and Lutheran Social Services of Illinois. Just this year, the lodge set up a $1,000 college scholarship for a local high school senior or college student. Shaulis said the scholarship was established mainly through Hanes’ efforts.
Seven members ordained at Oregon church in Sept. 6 ceremony Anticipation was running high for the Church of Jesus Christ Forever, Oregon, on Sept. 6 when seven of its members were about to become ordained ministers. Stepping into the sanctuary, the four women and three men – willing to be set apart and solely dedicated for service to Christ – stood before their sponsors, family, and special guests and promised to be faithful and true to God’s holy Word and laws. Approved by the church’s 14-member Founder’s Council, each heard the 12 requirements for ordination as
set forth in the constitution and bylaws of the church. Rev. Kale F. Aluli, as Reverend General, likened ordination to a marriage, and led the seven as they repeated their vow. During the two-and-a half hour service, each was solemnly made aware of the honor and seriousness of their calling, contemplated the significant scripture of Isaiah 61. At the close of the service, the newly ordained received their minister’s card and certificate of ordination, which authorizes them to visit hospitals, to pray
for the sick, to enter prisons, to perform marriages, and to bless and sanctify under God’s Holy Law. The ordained ministers are Rev. Rick Ryland, Rev. Joshua James, and Rev. June Jacobs, all of Oregon; Rev. Erika James, DeKalb; and Rev. Michelle Ryland, Chicago. Flying in and receiving ordination were Rev. Sharon Fisher, Hilton Head, S.C., and Rev. Justin Jacobs, Kauai, Hawaii. The service was followed by a reception and celebration. This was the church’s third ordination.

A Stillman Valley Boy Scout has started planning the Alec Catherwood Memorial Playground. Jacob Kocourek, 16, is a member of Troop 315. He is planning to raise $20,000 to build a playground at Ogle County’s Weld Park in rural Stillman Valley for his Eagle Scout Project. The Ogle County Board approved Kocourek’s initial plan in August. An account has been established for donations at Stillman Bank in Oregon, Byron, and Stillman Valley. The account has the tagline Catherwood Memorial Playground and the account is in the name of James Kocourek, who is Jacob’s father.
Preliminary plans show the playground will be built near the existing swing set. A playground used to be located there in the past. Fundraising for the playground will continue throughout the winter. When enough money is raised the playground can be built next spring or summer. Catherwood was a Byron High School graduate who was killed in Afghanistan in October 2010. Weld Park has received other improvements over the years through Boy Scout projects. To contact Kocourek email jjkocourek@gmail.com with the subject line “Catherwood Memorial Playground.”

program on Civilian Conservation Corps The Rock River Center, the Friends of the Oregon Public Library, and the Ogle County Historical Society will present a program about the Civilian Conservation Corps by Bill Jamerson, Escanaba. Mich., on Wednesday, Oct. 1 at 7 p.m. at Rock River Center, 810 S. Tenth St.,Oregon. America was in the grip of the Great Depression in 1933. More than 25 percent of the population was unemployed, hungry, and without hope. Out of the economic chaos emerged the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) the purpose of which was to conserve natural resources and salvage young men. Jamerson has spent a lot of time researching the CCC, visiting camps and parks, and talking to men and the families of men who were part of the corps. He will present The Dollara-Day Boys: A Musical Tribute to the Civilian Conservation Corps. In his talk, Jamerson will share many stories he
has picked up from former CCC boys and discuss their projects in Illinois. He will sign books after his talk. People are encouraged to bring photo albums and CCC memorabilia. Around 50 CCC camps existed in Illinois. They planted 60 million trees, built nearly 400 bridges, constructed more than 1,900 miles of roads, and installed hundreds of miles of telephone lines. A camp was opened in Ogle County in April 1937, five miles southwest of Oregon. They constructed the lodge and other structures at White Pines State Park. No admission will be charged for the program. Donations to cover the cost of the presenter will be gladly accepted. Refreshments will be served. Reservations are not required, however, a call to the Rock River Center at 815-732- 3252 would be appreciated.

Enrollments have been declining in rural areas From A1 from 92 to 90. Steward Elementary District in Lee County also feeds into Rochelle High School. Enrollment there has declined from 65 students last
year to 60 this year. The story is the same in Byron and Meridian School Districts. Officials in those two districts also don’t foresee the trend will reverse any
time soon. “Enrollments have been declining in most rural areas, and they’ve been declining across Illinois,” Byron Superintendent James Hammack said Sept. 15.

Attorney appointed judge A Freeport attorney was chosen last week as an associate judge of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit. Glenn R. Schorsch, who is currently affiliated with the Stephenson County Public Defenders’ office, was selected by a vote of circuit judges in the 15th Judicial Circuit, to fill a vacancy created when former Associate Judge David L. Jeffrey, Freeport, was
appointed to a circuit judge post, effective Sept. 2. Jeffrey was appointed to the circuit judge post of Theresa L. Ursin, who stepped down Aug. 31 after a lengthy career on the bench. Michael J. Tardy, Director of the Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts, announced Schorsch’s appointment on Sept. 12. The 15th Judicial circuit
includes Ogle, Lee, Carroll, Stephenson, and Jo Daviess Counties. Schorsch received his undergraduate degree in 1981 from Bradley University, Peoria, and his Juris Doctor in 1988 from John Marshall Law School, Chicago. Associate judges are appointed to four-year terms by the circuit judges, who are elected to six-year terms.
Man charged with sexual abuse A 26-year-old Bradley man was charged Sept. 9 with sexually abusing a 9-year-old girl. Matthew Longtin was arrested on a charge of aggravated criminal sexual abuse and is being held in the Ogle County Jail in lieu of $250,000 bond.
According to a press release issued by the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department, the charge was the result of a complaint filed by the girl’s family over an incident said to have taken place over Labor Day weekend at Lake LaDonna Family Campground near Oregon.
According to court documents the incident occurred on or about Aug. 31. Judge John Redington appointed a public defender to represent Longtin at a Sept. 12 court appearance. A preliminary hearing has been set for Sept. 24.
Byron’s enrollment stands at 1,525 students this year, and decrease of 27 from last year’s 1,552. Meridian’s study body totals 1796 this fall, a decline of 45 students from 1,841 a year ago. Only three classes — third, sixth, and 11th grades — show an increase over last year. “Our enrollment has been on a rather steady decline,” said Meridian Superintendent P.J. Caposey. “There are many potential reasons for this, so it is hard to come up with anything more than suppositions at this point. Our job as a district is to continue to push toward greatness in every facet and hope to attract people to our community.” Like Craven, Hammack believes the economic downturn in recent years
is a significant part of the problem. “The economic conditions are leading to smaller families, for one thing,” he said. The downturn in the housing market has made it difficult for people to sell their homes, he said, limiting the number of new families moving into the district. “In 2009-10 we had 1,650 kids in our school district,” Hammack said. Projections show the enrollment will likely drop another 100 students by 2018-19, putting Byron’s enrollment in the mid 1,400s. Meridian’s projections show enrollment dipping to 1,740 in the 2016-17 school year. Oregon Schools decreased from 1470 last year to 1448 this year, an overall loss of 22 students.
Associate Superintendent Adam Larsen said the loss is apparently due to families moving out of the district for employment. Polo Superintendent Chris Rademacher said his district lost 47 this year, going from 650 last year to 603. Polo has faced steadily declining enrollment for more than a decade. Enrollment in pre-school through 12th grade was 805 at the start of the 2001-02 school year. Rademacher said the loss of jobs plays a significant part in the enrollment decline, along with larger farms. “We have been affected by the closing of the printing plants in Mt. Morris,” he said. “In the rural areas, farming has gotten bigger over the last 20 years. We do not pick up as many students in the country. The farmhouses on 160-acre plots have disappeared.”
The last day to register to vote or make a change of address for the Nov. 4 general election is Tuesday, Oct. 7, Ogle County Clerk Rebecca Huntley said Aug. 25. The only exception is the grace period registration and transfer of registration from Oct. 8 to Nov. 4 at Huntley’s office on the first floor of the Ogle County Courthouse, 105 S. Fifth St., Oregon. Early voting will be conducted at the Ogle County Clerk’s office in the Ogle County Courthouse from Oct. 20 through Nov. 1 for all Ogle County precincts. Early voting will be conducted at the Flagg Township Building, 303 W. Ill. 38, Rochelle, from Oct. 30 through Nov. 1 for Flagg and Dement precincts only. The first day to vote an absentee ballot for the election is Thursday, Sept. 25. The last day for mailing a ballot from the county clerk’s
office is Thursday, Oct. 30. Absentee voting may be done in person at the courthouse through Tuesday, Nov. 4 at 7 p.m. Huntley said that her office at the courthouse complies with the Federal Voting Accessibility for the Elderly and Handicapped Act. She said the courthouse is accessible to the handicapped for voter registration. She will sent a deputy registrar to the residence of any person who wishes to register to vote and is unable to go to a registrar. Huntley said temporarily physically incapacitated voters who find it difficult or nearly impossible to go to the polls on election day may now vote by absentee ballot without getting the signature of their physicians as long as they call her office and request an application. First time voters who registered by mail must vote in person, Huntley said.
Absentee voters may vote in person at the courthouse. Huntley will send an absentee application to voters who request one. When the completed application is returned to Huntley, the ballot will be sent. Anyone who needs assistance with voting should call Huntley’s office and arrangements for help, within the law, will be made. For voters who cannot get into the polling place, Huntley will send two election judges within 50 feet of the polling place with a ballot. A request for this assistance must be made prior to the election on a form provided by Huntley. For information or assistance with voting or registering to vote call the Ogle County Clerk at 815732-1110 from 8:30 a.m.4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, or go to www. oglecounty.org.

Farm Safety and Health Week is Sept. 20-27 National Farm Safety and Health Week is coming up on Sept.20-27, and draws attention to the importance of safety in such a dangerous occupation as farming. In particular, power lines can pose a major hazard for farmers. Typically, power lines over streets and rural areas have a minimal clearance of 18 feet and 12.5 feet over residential private property. “Electrical equipment, such as power lines near the end rows, may get overlooked
during such a hectic time of year as harvest,” says Molly Hall, executive director of the Energy Education Council’s Safe Electricity program. “However, failure to notice overhead power lines can be a deadly oversight.” The simple movement of a portable grain auger from one bin to another can have tragic results if the individuals involved are not extremely careful. Today’s farm equipment has a long reach when extended. A daily check of
where equipment will be moving should be conducted to ensure that it will clear power lines. If equipment cannot safely pass under a power line, choose a different path. Safe Electricity advises farm operators and workers to: Always use a spotter when operating large machinery near lines. Use care when raising augers or the bed of grain trucks around power lines. Keep equipment at least 10
feet from lines-at all times, in all directions. Inspect the height of the farm equipment to determine clearance. Always remember to lower extensions to the lowest setting when moving loads. Never attempt to move a power line out of the way or raise it for clearance. If a power line is sagging or low, call the local utility immediately. If contact is made with a power line, remember, it is almost always safest to stay

Habitat for Humanity is the AOP Unit of Honor By Vinde Wells Editor An organization of dedicated volunteers noted for building homes in various communities in Ogle County will be honored at this year’s Autumn on Parade festival. Habitat for Humanity of Ogle County (HFHOC) has been selected as the 2014 Unit of Honor and will be
recognized in the Harvest Time Parade on Sunday, Oct. 5. Habitat members will ride on a float in the parade which begins at 2 p.m. “We were excited to hear we were chosen for this honor,” said Gail Tuttle, HFHOC Volunteer Coordinator. “We’ve worked closely with AOP for security for several years. It’s a real pleasure.”
Since it was founded 12 years ago, HFHOC has completed nine houses and is nearly finished with the 10th, being built at 210 N. Sixth St., Oregon. An 11th home is in the planning stages and will be built in Mt. Morris next year. So far, HFHOC volunteers have built two homes in Forreston, both of which have been sold, one in Byron, four
in Polo, one in Oregon with the second in progress, and one in Mt. Morris. Habitat for Humanity International is an ecumenical Christian ministry, comprised of volunteers, that welcomes to all people dedicated to eliminating poverty housing. Since its founding in 1976, Habitat has built more than 200,000 houses in nearly 100 countries, providing simple,
decent and affordable shelter for more than a million people. Future homeowners help build their homes and then buy them through affordable, no-profit mortgages; their payments go into a Fund for Humanity to build additional homes. To be chosen as the recipient of a Habitat home, a family must apply and
undergo a lengthy selection process. Once selected, home recipients are required to put in the a number of “sweat equity” hours by helping to build their new home. Each home carries an interest-free mortgage. For more information call HFHOC at 815-732-6855 or Tuttle at 815-494-2114 or visit www.habitat.org.

Morris Campus, one block south of the Wesley and Ill. 64 (Hitt Street) intersection, from noon to 6 p.m. Chautauquas, late 19th century rural entertainment venues, featured live performances, exhibits, and educational events focused on the arts, religion and recreation. The theme for the Mt. Morris Chautauqua is “Small Town Living: Yesterday and Today.� The Chautauqua movement was founded in 1874 by Bishop John Heyl Vincent, a former Mt. Morris pastor, resident and Rock River Seminary student. Bench seating is available, but bring easily transported lawn chairs to assure a seat. Wear comfortable walking shoes to visit nearby exhibits, all sidewalk accessible. Light refreshments are available.

The Civil War Sesquicentennial will be observed with a 1 p.m. performance by Scott and Peggy Whitney, General U. S. Grant and Julia Dent Grant interpreters. Grant’s close friend, military and presidential advisor John Rawlins attended Rock River Seminary. The Grants will be introduced by Jeff Bold of the Performing Arts Guild. Bold will portray Robert R. Hitt, local congressman from 1882-1906. Grant appointed Hitt as the Secretary of the American Legation in Paris from 18741881. Hitt attended classes at and later owned the Rock River Seminary.

The Family Selection Committee of Habitat for Humanity of Ogle County (HHFOC) will hold an application seminar on Saturday, Sept. 20 at 9 a.m. at Stillman Bank, 1445 Ill. 2 North, Oregon. This meeting will be the only time HHFOC will accept applications for its next home that will be built in the 400 block of Front Street in Mt. Morris. Habitat for Humanity of Ogle County (HHFOC) may be able to help future homeowners who have the ability to make a monthly
mortgage payment, but do not qualify for a conventional loan. HHFOC builds new homes in partnership with future homeowners. Upon completion of the program requirements, the homeowner purchases the home at cost, with a nointerest loan. The mortgage payment includes insurance and real estate taxes and is usually around $500-$550 per month. The basic selection criteria are as follows: 1) owners have a need for adequate housing and do not currently
own a home, 2) they are willing to help build a home – 200 hours of “sweat equity� required per adult family member, 3) they meet the income guidelines based on family size and show the ability to pay the monthly mortgage.

Ducks ready to for annual race The bright orange ducks with the white sailor hats are once again getting ready to race in the 2014 Autumn on Parade Duck Dash. The plastic quackers will “paddle� down Franklin Street in Oregon at approximately 3:45 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 5, after the Harvest Time Parade. “They will take a swim down our man-made river provided by the Oregon Fire Department on Sunday, following the conclusion of the Harvest Time Parade,� said Duck Dash Co-Chairman Laura Medlar. The duck dash route is on the block of Franklin Street between Third and Second Streets, along the south side of Conover Square. Nearly 2,500 ducks, each carrying their own number, will be available for adoption at local businesses prior to the festival weekend. They will also be available for purchase at the Autumn on Parade Booth during the
festival. “The adoption fee is $5 each or a ‘6 Quack’ for $25, where six ducks can be purchased for the price of five,� said co-chairman Jessie Whalen. All ducks remain the property of the festival. Adoptive parents of the top 10 chosen ducks will be awarded cash prizes. Here’s how it works: Each duck has a number ascribed to his/her bottom. Adoptive parents fill out an adoption form designating that duck based on his/her number. The duck is then placed in the Duck Dash race line-up. The first 10 chosen ducks that make it down Franklin Street the day of the race are the winners. The decision of the judges will be final and winners need not be present to win. Ducks may be adopted at several area businesses prior to the festival. Look for the Official

Polo earns a 59-36 NUIC win to stay undefeated The threat of rain and a tough opponent at home didn’t faze the Polo Marcos as they picked up a big win on the road Friday night at Stockton, beating the Blackhawks 59-36 in an NUIC Upstate showdown. The night began to look right for Polo fans when the clouds broke just in time for a clear view of Jesse Ditzler scoring a touchdown on a 44-yard run for a 6-0 Marco lead with 9:11 left in the first quarter. Polo went on to score four times in the final 9 minutes if the first half, including twice in the final 31 seconds. After Brody Grobe’s 9-yard scoring run with 31 seconds left in the second quarter, the Marcos (3-0, 3-0) recovered their own squib kickoff when Austin Webb fell on the ball after it touched a Stockton player.
Grobe then hooked up with Brad Cavanaugh from 34 yards out with 8 ticks left on the clock for a 36-14 halftime lead. Cavanaugh’s 11-yard TD catch from Grobe 2 minutes into the second half put Polo up 44-14, and Grobe and Kevin Cheeseman ran in for scores in the fourth quarter to salt away the win. Grobe ran for 130 yards, threw for 102 more, and accounted for six of Polo’s eight touchdowns. He ran in from 63, 9, and 4 yards, and connected on scoring strikes with Cavanaugh (twice) and Richie Bartnick. Polo totaled 392 yards, while Stockton (2-1, 2-1) piled up 325. The loss snapped the Blackhawks’ streak of 25 straight Upstate victories, dating back to 2010.

Sports Column Corn husking used to draw big crowds By Andy Colbert Reporter With the high school sports in full gear, it’s time to give just due to another fall activity that attracted only the most physically fit. A few clues: It never was a part of school or IHSAsanctioned events, but used to draw crowds larger than prep sports state finals. Its primary piece of equipment was a hook on a leather strap that wrapped around the competitor’s hand. It was held outdoors and conducted no matter the weather conditions. Some of you old-timers likely came up with the
answer on the second clue about the hook and a leather strap. We’re talking about the sport of corn husking. The process involved pulling the ear of corn from a stalk and pulling husks off as fast as possible. It was a test of endurance, strength and agility. Other athletic skills needed were to be sharp and quick with one’s eyes and hands. There was a practiced art to the perfect timing of pulling and throwing the ears. A top-notch husker may have three ears in the air at the same time. If you weren’t doing at least an ear per second, you’d be would be left behind. Now, imagine maintaining that pace for 80 minutes. That’s how long a competition would last, as a corn husker would work two rows at a time. As today’s kids prep for
their falls sports, they have a weightlifting regimen and other fancy training exercises to build muscle and strength. The young corn huskers of the time relied on oldfashioned farm work, such as hay baling, tending animals and chopping wood, to stay in shape. I wonder if today’s young people could keep up with the pace the corn huskers established as they worked the rows? Corn husking competition lasted a relatively short time – from 1922 to 1941. Ogle County had its first contest in 1935 and Ray Schoonhoven of Forreston won it. The next few years saw Fred Nordman of Chana, Wilke Mammen of Kings, Raymond Englewald of Pine Creek and Maynard Bruns of Stillman Valley win titles. I discovered this
information at a wonderful display DeWayne and Marilyn Adams of Davis Junction have each year at the Franklin Grove living history antique equipment show. Back in the day, some of DeWayne’s family was among the county’s elite in the extremely competitive world of corn husking. Maynard Bruns, a 2-time champ and still alive today at over 90 years of age, was the only person from Ogle County to compete at the state level, placing eighth out of 16 other men in 1941. In winning the county title, Bruns picked 44 bushels of corn in the allotted 80 minutes, for an astounding total of 3,147 pounds. The state competition was akin to a high school sports state final, with ham radio operators sending out description of the match. The WLS radio barn dancers
provided entertainment and the station engineers brought out a huge public address system to announce what was going on to the thousands of spectators. A farm would have to meet certain stipulations (food stands, road accessibility, acreage, etc) before bidding to host the event, similar to what the IHSA requires in its state-hosting process. Corn husking was the domain of midwestern states, with most of the competition in Iowa, Indiana, Illinois and Nebraska (hence the college moniker of Cornhuskers). It was considered so prestigious, that NBC radio broadcast the national competition live. More than 100,000 attendees were commonplace. The final national contest in 1941 was held in the heart of some of the best farmland in the world, Tonica, Illinois.
Andy Colbert
After that, World War II and mechanical picking spelled the end of corn husking. But, for a few years in the 1930s and early 1940s, the best athletes in Ogle County were probably found in the cornfields instead of the hardwood and gridiron.

Cool cars tour area on cool Sept. day Brisk temperatures on Sept. 11 didn’t stop members of the Illinois Brass Touring Region from donning their hats to head out for a drive through Ogle County. “Yes it’s a little chilly today, but I have a windshield,� said Tom Edfors as he started up his 1909 Regal, which was built in Detroit. “Some of the other cars don’t have windshields.� Edfors and his wife, Joyce, brought their Regal on a trailer to Rochelle where the couple along with other members of the touring group, stayed at a motel. “We do two to three tours a year,� said Edfors as he waited for his passengers to
exit Conover Square. “We take the cars to a location then we drive the cars on day trips from that location. We try to do about 100 miles each day. We’re staying until Saturday.� The group stopped at Conover and then were headed west to the White Pines State Park for lunch at the White Pines Inn. “We’ve heard we can drive through fords at the park,� noted Edfors. Beverly Eby, Kalamazoo, Mich., made sure she zipped her coat and grabbed her hat from the back of the 1912 Oldsmobile she was riding in before it left Oregon. “Good thing I brought these today,� she said.

McKendrie Street Cafe opened it doors May 2014 telling customers that it was a cross between Subway and Dairy Queen, which made them chuckle. In fact it is so much more as it has turned out to be a gathering place for young and old alike. Families, individuals, groups have taken the opportunity to come into the community center and take a look around. Artwork on the walls, a nice cheery atmosphere and the cafe all together under one roof just makes this center a one-of-a-kind place. Ken Foss, owner of McKendrie Street Cafe, has many years of experience in the catering and concession business, and can offer catering for gatherings such as birthdays, Christmas and graduation parties. The community center offers ample parking space for those gatherings or meetings. A hidden treasure in Mt. Morris, the Pinecrest Grove Community Center and McKendrie Street Cafe is the place to be.

we attended the performance of the U.S. Air Force Band of Mid-America concert held in the beautiful Dixon Theater. What a group of very talented men and women. We were also entertained by “top shelf� vocalist Staff Sgt. Albert Williams. They represent all of very professionally during their travels around the world. They received many standing ovations and deservedly so. We enjoyed two hours of amazing music. And to top it off, it was free as it always has been. They have been in Dixon several times and I hope this was not the last. Our area needs to be represented to show our appreciation for what they do. Thanks again Dixon! Al Koper Dixon

If this property is a condominium unit which is part of a common interest community, the purchaser of the unit at the foreclosure sale other than a mortgagee shall pay the assessments required by the Condominium Property Act, 765 ILCS 605/18.5 (g-1). If the sale is not confirmed for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the purchase price paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee or the Mortgagee's attorney. IF YOU ARE THE MORTGAGOR (HOMEOWNER), YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN IN POSSESSION FOR 30 DAYS AFTER ENTRY OF AN ORDER OF POSSESSION, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 15-1701 (c) OF THE ILLINOIS MORTGAGE FORECLOSURE LAW. Note: Pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act you are advised that the Law Firm of Heavner, Beyers & Mihlar, LLC, is deemed to be a debt collector attempting to collect a debt, and any information obtained will be used for that purpose.
