Tour offers look at local history

By Vinde Wells Editor

Two longtime friends made the most of a beautiful fall day to learn more about local history and reminisce Sept. 29 at the Mt. Morris Country Living Tour.

Ginny Hough, 83, and LaVonne Anderson, 91, who have grandchildren in common, were among the more than 100 people who took the tour on a pictureperfect autumn afternoon.

The event was sponsored by the Mt. Morris Tourism Committee.

The first stop on the tour was Weller’s Woods for a Tennessee Picnic under the spreading oak trees.

Hough spied an antique auto displayed there.

“My brother had one just

like this,” she said, as she headed over for a closer look.

She and Anderson shared memories of local happenings and people as they waited their turn to take a hayride through the scenic pasture and woods.

Anderson said she was enjoying the tour as well as the blue sky and temperature in the mid-70s.

“I’ve lived here 68 years, and this is a real adventure for me,” she said. “It’s fun.”

Weller’s Woods, located at 6669 W. Oregon Trail Rd., was a well-known place to camp, picnic, and fish along the Pine Creek as far back as 1927, when the first Tennessee Picnic was held there.

Lawsuit filed in teacher’s death

By Vinde Wells Editor The husband of a Polo High School teacher who died of the injuries she suffered in a vehicle crash in May is suing the Stephenson County Sheriff’s Department.

Jason Kamp, Byron, filed a lawsuit Sept. 13 in Stephenson County claiming a dispatcher’s oversight contributed to the death of his wife Sarah, 32, who was pregnant with the couple’s second child when she died.

Kamp, represented by Rockford attorney Timothy S. Mahoney, is seeking $4 million in damages for wrongful death.

Sarah Kamp died at OSF

St. Anthony Medical Center, Rockford, where she was airlifted after a two-vehicle crash at the intersection

of Montague and Rock City Roads on the OgleStephenson county line just after 7 a.m. on May 20.

At the time of the crash, Illinois State Police said the stop sign was not in place that controls traffic on Montague Road at the intersection with Rock City Road when the crash occurred. Traffic on Rock City Road is not required to stop.

A strong storm the night before apparently blew the sign into a nearby field.

Police said Kamp was driving westbound on Montague Road and proceeded into the intersection without stopping. Robert Fry, Leaf River, tells Nancy Nelson and Ruth Stauffer, both of Mt.

AOP to feature larger than ever Farmer’s Market

By Vinde Wells Editor A larger and more diverse Farmers Market and Craft Show will be one of the highlights for visitors at the 43rd Autumn on Parade festival this weekend.

Farmers Market coordinator Laury Edlund said 181 vendors, at least 25 more than at previous festivals, will display their wares in booths on the Ogle County Courthouse lawn and the surrounding area in downtown Oregon on Saturday, Oct. 5 and Sunday, Oct.6.

“It’s definitely up this year,” Edlund said. “I think some are looking for a different venue or maybe one closer to home.”

She said several of the new vendors told her they were referred by the festival’s veteran crafters.

“I’ve had a lot of them tell me ‘I’ve heard you have a good festival and I should be part of it,’” she said.

Several new crafters will

add variety to the items offered for sale, Edlund said.

“We have maple products this year, a woman who makes bras into aprons, and items made from sea shells,” she said. “Lloyd Bellows will do blacksmith demonstrations as well as offer his items for sale.”

The AOP festival will serve up its traditional fare of fun with some added attractions for 2013.

Haunted Harvest is the theme for this year’s event.

“Following this year’s theme ‘Haunted Harvest,’ entertainers on Saturday on the courthouse square will include Fred the Vampire and Horrible Harry just to name a few,” said festival president Marseyne Snow.

“Frankenstein will also stroll the courthouse lawn on stilts.

After all it is a Haunted Harvest.”

One of the new events for this year is a post parade show by the South Shore Drill Team on Sunday.

“Because South Shore is always a such a crowd

favorite during the Harvest Time Parade we decided to have them stay a bit longer and do a show after the parade is over,” said Snow.

“The post parade show will be held on Jefferson Street in front of the Oregon library.”

Snow said this year’s parade, held on Sunday at 1 p.m., is shaping up to be one of the largest in recent years.

“In addition to the South Shore Drill Team and the Jesse White Tumblers we have booked the New Generation Drill Team and a Circus Wagon Train,” Snow said.

Antique tractors and vintage vehicles, youth groups and marching bands, and other commercial entries will also be on hand.

Also new to this year’s festival is a 93 foot long zipline operated by Kid Again Inflatable Fun Shows, located in the AOP Fun Zone.

“We wanted to try something new and the zipline looks like a lot of fun,” Linda Edler, Marge Immel and Timmy Breeden tie cornstalks on a light pole on the Ogle County Courthouse Lawn in preparation for the Autumn on Parade festival this Snow said. weekend. Photo by Earleen Hinton Turn to A3

Husband files wrongful death suit

From A1 with a white Saturn driven by Barbara Faulkner, 56, Leaf River, who was northbound on Rock City Road.

According to the lawsuit, a resident who lives near the intersection called 911 to report the missing sign at 5:51 a.m.

The Stephenson County dispatcher who took the call assured the neighbor that the sign would be taken care of, the document says.

The lawsuit alleges that

the dispatcher then took another unrelated call and “forgot about” the missing stop sign.

“There was a shift change at 6 a.m. and no one was ever alerted that there had been a problem with the stop sign,” the lawsuit says.

Because of the storm, the lawsuit goes on to allege, the Stephenson County Highway Department went to work at 6 a.m., an hour earlier than normal, to check for downed signs.

A new book by Pastor

Nadia Bolz-Weber of the Evangelical Lutheran Churches of America (ELCA) titled “Pastrix: The Cranky, Beautiful Faith of a Sinner & Saint” could be a good topic of discussion, Ehrler said.

To contact Ehrler, call the church at 815-734-6354.

“Has the call been transferred to the proper agency in this case, the Stephenson County Highway Department, the highway department would have been available to replace the stop sign at the intersection of Montague and Rock City Road,” the lawsuit says.

According to the document, Sarah was on her way to an appointment with her obstetrician in Freeport when the crash occurred.

At the time of her death Sarah taught sophomore and senior English at Polo High School, where her husband teaches physics and chemistry.

The couple have a twoyear-old son.

Harn seeks second term as sheriff Three running for sheriff in March primary

By Vinde Wells Editor Ogle County Sheriff Michael Harn emphasized that his department has been doing more with less money in all aspects of its operations when he announced that he will seek a second term Tuesday morning.

“It seems like yesterday I stood here and announced that I was running for sheriff,” Harn told the approximately 40 supporters gathered in the lobby of the Ogle County Judicial Center. “I promised that if the people elected me, that I would do things differently; that the sheriff’s office could, and would do more — with less financial resources.”

Harn is running for the Republican Party nomination

for sheriff in the March 18 primary election.

Two other candidates, Brian Van Vickle and Joe Drought, both of Rochelle and both Republicans, have already thrown their hats in the ring.

The successful candidate in the primary will run on the Republican Party ticket in the November general election.

Harn was introduced

by Ogle County Board Chairman Kim Gouker and retired Ogle County Circuit Judge Michael Mallon.

Gouker praised Harn for being careful with money since he was elected sheriff in November of 2010.

“From my perspective, Sheriff Harn has been good and cooperative sheriff for the citizens of Ogle County,” he said.

Mallon also lauded Harn for reducing the sheriff’s department’s budget.

“I’ve known Sheriff Harn for approximately 30 years, and he’s the kind of guy who

does what he says he’s going to do,” he said.

Harn told his supporters that public safety is and has been the main focus of his administration.

“Public safety is my highest priority,” he said. “I want our residents to know that we have been proactive on many levels. We rethought our deployment of deputies on the road, and strategically located them in key areas of the county to decrease response time, and increase our performance.”

“We have invested in our people,” he said. “We have vastly increased training hours for our personnel.

The sheriff’s office serves the people of Ogle County with distinction and honor.

When we respond to your emergency, you can expect the most professional response from our team.

“The people working in the sheriff’s office have achieved much, and they’ve done it with vastly reduced

overtime. Our overall budget spending in 2012 actually has decreased by 4 percent since 2010. We are all doing more with less.”

The department has solved more crimes and made more arrests than before, Harn said, all while spending less.

“Between the years 2010, and 2012 our annual total arrests are up by four times,” Harn said. “Our warrant arrests are up 50 percent. We have produced these increases while reducing miles driven by 100,000 miles. This efficiency translates into taxpayer money saved for gasoline, and maintenance costs. On the road we are doing more — with less.”

Solving burglaries has been an area of significant success, he said.

“Burglary is a very personal crime that we take extremely seriously,” Harn said. “The national average for burglaries cleared is 12 percent according to FBI statistics. In 2012 our

detectives cleared 72 percent of Ogle County burglaries.”

Harn said the jail has been reorganized and upgraded, reducing costs while increasing revenues.

Inter-agency cooperation with other law enforcement agencies has helped to reduce crime, he said.

In addition, cooperation with the Oregon Park District and Chana Education Center has resulted in beautified and better-maintained grounds, Harn said.

A presentation about American cowboy and humorist Will Rogers will be held on Sunday, Oct. 13 at 7 p.m. at the Rock River Center, 810 S. 10th St., Oregon.

Andy Hogan, a historical guide from Oklahoma, will brings Rogers to life. Hogan is a guide at the Will Rogers Memorial Museum and Will Rogers interpreter.

Rogers (Nov. 4, 1879 – Aug. 15, 1935) was a cowboy, vaudeville performer, humorist, social commentator, and motion picture actor.

He was one of the world’s best-known celebrities in the

1920s and 1930s.

Known as “Oklahoma’s Favorite Son,” Rogers was born to a prominent Cherokee Nation family in Indian Territory (now part of Oklahoma).

He traveled around the world three times, made 71 movies (50 silent films and 21 “talkies”), wrote more than 4,000 nationally-syndicated newspaper columns, and became a world-famous figure.

By the mid-1930s, Rogers was adored by the American people. He was the leading political wit of the Progressive Era, and was the

top-paid Hollywood movie star at the time.

Rogers died in 1935 with aviator Wiley Post, when their small airplane crashed in Alaska.

The event is sponsored by the Rock River Center, The Friends of the Oregon Public Library, and the Ogle County Historical Society.

No admission will be charged but donations will be accepted to help cover Hogan’s transportation costs.

Reservations would be appreciated and can be made by calling 815-732-3252, 800-541-5479, or 815-7322661.

Oregon-Mt. Morris Beat Public Voice Public apology is needed after cruel words

Red & White night a success Dear Editor, The 2013 OHS Hawks fall season has started with a successful Red & White Spirit Night.

The Oregon Hawks Booster Club would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who supported the fall activities participants at the 2013 Red & White Spirit Night.

We could not have asked for better weather. Everyone enjoyed meeting the 2013 Oregon Hawks, watching the athletes scrimmage, cheerleaders cheer, Pom Pom girls dance, runners run, and the band play.

The success of this event is the result of the many volunteers who donate their time, support, enthusiasm, money, and raffle items.

We would like to thank all the individuals and businesses for their donations.

Let’s Go Hawks!

Thank you, Jennifer Rutherford Oregon Hawks Booster Club

Dear Editor, I am appalled at the letter to the editor submitted last week

by Lynne Kilker referencing the cover of the Oregon Living Magazine.

How degrading and demeaning to refer to our Chamber of Commerce Director’s photos as “provocative” and as a “pinup” when it is absolutely no such thing.

The photos are amazing and the story about Oregon uplifting and positive.

On top of which, Debbie had nothing to do with writing the story or deciding what went on the cover of the magazine.

I for one believe Debbie Dickson has been a tremendous asset to our community for many years as a hard working volunteer, at the helm of the Autumn on Parade Festival and working for the chamber.

I am furious that Ms. Kilker could be so vicious and cruel.

Lynne, you should be ashamed of yourself. I believe you owe Dear Editor, Debbie a public apology!

It has been 13 years since Beth Henderson White Oak Cemetery has had White Pines Inn & road repair.

Road repairs leave cemetery fund depleted

Cover was not provocative

Amused with letter about magazine cover

the letter from one of our county board representatives concerning a purported “pinup picture” on the cover of a recent newspaper magazine.

I’ll bet the representative’s arrival at the next Chamber of Commerce meeting will be one sashaying entrance.

Speaking for myself, I’d rather see a picture of a person than some damned old cannons, which represent devices used to kill.

In the representative’s letter it’s stated “Our courthouse represents all the citizens of Ogle County.”

I will say, inside the walls of that courthouse, people representing Ogle County have taken our money in taxes and fines, taken people’s freedom, taken people’s home, passed laws to cause their neighbor a problem, and meet once a month to act like a bunch of nitwits with their petty little fights.

Woman finds acceptance Dear Editor, Four years ago, I moved to Mt. Morris from Napa, Calif.

Missing my spiritual community, I decided to find a church I could call home. I tried attending several in the area but didn’t quite fit in.

Although I am a Christian, I am also a professional psychic. I had trained with the Berkeley Psychic Institute, am an ordained minister, and had started a meditation center.

When I went to churches in the area and shared my spiritual beliefs I wasn’t exactly accepted. I wondered if I would find a place I could fit in.

One day while driving into Oregon from Mt. Morris, I hit an icy patch of road.

Of course, I had never driven on ice in my life. I lost control of the car.

It slid across the street past oncoming traffic.

The only thing that went through my mind was, Lord, I hope this isn’t going to hurt.

Fortunately, God had a higher plan for me and apparently a rather dark sense of humor.

My car landed in one piece in front of St. Bride’s church sign. I looked up and there it was.

For the moment I thought to myself that the people inside must be praying for new members. Probably another bunch of holy rollers.

A few weeks later after looking through the phone book, there it was again, that sign.

I thought to myself, this must be divine intervention because I found myself driving there for their traditional Christian service.

They simply read from the Old Testament, then the new Testament.

No one told me what I need to believe. They just presented the word.

It has been three years since then. I am still attending.

I have since been baptized into the Episcopal faith and have a greater sense of inner peace.

It is the best kept secret around here. They really practice Jesus’ commandment love thy neighbor as thyself.

I feel unconditionally loved.

When I enter the sanctuary of the church I feel blessed and lifted up.

That which was missing in my life is fulfilled.

Privately I call the coffee hour there the Jesus club.

Episcopalians love to socialize and cook.

If you are searching for a church that practices unconditional love, come to Saint Bride’s.

Sincerely, Karyn Hart Mt. Morris P.S. They don’t know I am writing this letter about the church.

Enjoys seeing flag on the dam Dear Editor, I want to thank the person or persons responsible for the flag on the dam. You have made me famous (infamous?)

I can’t go anywhere, including within by own family, that I am not asked if or how I did it.

I do go out on the river pretty much every day, but I have to admit I have not done a public prank since I turned Blackhawk red back in 1966.

He actually looked pretty good that way.

I have looked at the flag from close range and have checked out the structure of the dam.

Whoever did this must have

done their homework.

Turning Blackhawk red when the lights were in the Flintstone structures took a little creativity, but it was easy and not dangerous.

Wait 47 years until you admit your “crime.”

I think the dam looks pretty good with the flag there, and it gives me a good indication of the wind when I am sailing.

The entire Woman’s Club would like to thank all those who have attended this show over the years and brought their families and friends.

Positive feedback has always been received from attendees and many thanks received from local merchants for business brought into them by people coming to Oregon.

This show has made an outstanding concession available to attendees and dealers, which has been very well received.

However, the organization which has provided the concession can no longer continue their fine work due to a shortage of volunteers.

Therefore, at this time the Oregon Woman’s Club is seeking a certified and insured food provider and server for their two-day annual Antique Show concession.

Dates are Saturday, March 29 and Sunday, March 30, 2014. The location is the Blackhawk Center, Oregon.

Attendance at the show is approximately 1,850 people, with a percentage of attendees as well as dealers eating at concessions.

The Oregon Club wishes to offer this opportunity to a local civic organization or a business before Tuesday, Oct. 15.

Specific requirements can be obtained by contacting Judy Groharing at 815-6522047.

Sincerely, Judy Groharing President, Oregon Woman’s Club and Chairman, Annual Antique Show

On Sunday, Sept. 29, members of Freedom Lutheran in Oregon could be found around the community weeding, washing and painting.

They joined Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA) Congregations across the country who are celebrating their 25th Anniversary as a church body through a “God’s Work - Our Hands” Sunday.

The ELCA, which officially came into being on January 1, 1988, has done a variety things to celebrate its quarter century of life, including designating a Sunday in September to serve the host communities of its 9400 congregations.

Officially, Sept. 8 was the designated Sunday, but Freedom, as did many other congregations, chose a Sunday on which they could bring their projects together.

“The date was not the most important thing,” said Freedom’s Pastor Jeff Schlesinger.

“The important thing is that we show our partnership with the communities in which we do ministry. Our congregations exist for the sake of the people and the communities where they reside, not for our own sake.”

Freedom members tackled three projects: washing windows at the restored Oregon Train Depot, weeding and cleaning up the landscape around Oregon

City Hall, and painting picnic tables at Lowden State Park.

“Service is at the center of what we’ve been about from the beginning,” said Laura Watters, former president and part of the founding group of Freedom Lutheran.

“We claim as our mission statement two actions: welcoming and serving.”

Not only does Freedom seek ways to serve the local community, but they reach out around the globe as well.

In August and September members have been collecting school supplies to send to children in need throughout the world through Lutheran World Relief (LWR).

On Wednesday, Sept. 25, they packed up 60 backpacks complete with pencils, pens, notebooks, scissors and crayons that will be boxed up and taken to Rockford

and then be shipped to places such as Djibouti, Nicaragua and Haiti.

Freedom member Jan Champley, who coordinated the project, challenged the congregation to donate enough materials to complete 20 backpacks.

Schlesinger told the congregation they could do better and challenged them to complete 40.

In the end, both underestimated Freedom’s generosity as they combined the two challenges to create 60 school kits.

Freedom Lutheran worships at Lutheran Outdoor Ministries Center (LOMC) just south of Oregon each Sunday at 9:45 a.m. During the week, Schlesinger can be found at the downtown welcome center at 111 S. 4th Street.

Reading Matters What role do sight worlds play in learning

p.m.

By Mary Gardner The luncheon menu will Reading Specialist include Ebenezer chicken casserole, Jello salad, roll, If you have children dessert, and drink. grandchildren in The cost of the luncheon or is $6 for adults and $3 for kindergarten or first grade children age 10 and younger. you have likely seen lists of words come home called

sight (or high-frequency) words.

For this month we will look at what sight words are, the role they play in learning to read, and some ideas for the best ways to help our young readers learn them.

Sight words are selected from lists of high-frequency words. There are several lists available and they vary slightly, but the intent remains the same.

These words appear often in our language so learning to read (and eventually write) them quickly and automatically will make reading easier.

Additionally, several of these words do not follow regular phonics rules so they need to be learned by heart rather than relying on being able to “sound them out.”

For example: said, have, of, they.

The more words a beginning reader can read automatically and quickly, the more fluent his or her reading will be.

Reading fluently makes it much easier to understand what is being read and that understanding is the goal of all reading.

For all of these reasons sight words are an important part of beginning reading in kindergarten and first grade.

One idea for working on learning the lists of sight words that come home from school is to make flash cards.

Using index cards or the back of cereal boxes makes the cards sturdier and last longer. Try to spend a few minutes each day asking your child or grandchild to read the words as you flip through the cards.

Keep the routine quick and keep it positive by telling the child any words that aren’t known yet. You might make

two piles – one that contains the words known quickly and one that still need practice.

As the known pile gets bigger, praise your child for his/her efforts.

There are online sources for games that offer repeated practice with sight words as well.

Do a quick search and have your child try some of the games you find. He or she might enjoy practicing in this way.

It is best to also provide opportunities to practice sight words in meaningful context.

Many teachers send small short books home. These books contain the sight words in simple sentences with pictures to support early readers.

Listening to your child read these books to you is an excellent way to support other beginning reading skills as well.

Another idea is to use the sight words to create your own simple sentences and even make your own books.

For example, use some of the sight words like this: I can see ____. or, I go to ________.

Help your child or grandchild fill in the blanks with names of family members or photos of favorite people and places.

Write or type one sentence on a page. After several are completed, staple the pages together.

As your child reads and rereads the books, she or he is practicing sight words.

Learning to read is hard work. As parents and grandparents our encouragement and support of our young readers is vital.

Practicing sight words with them is one way we can give that support.

Oregon FFA is the Unit of Honor on Oct. 6 Thomas, vice president; Harvest Time Spencer Gentry, secretary; Babbitt, treasurer; and parade begins at Harry Harry Fleming, reporter.

The Mt. Morris High 1 p.m. Sunday School chapter merged with

By Vinde Wells Editor The Oregon FFA’s threequarter century of community service is being honored at this year’s Autumn on Parade festival.

The organization has been chosen as this year’s Unit of Honor and will be recognized in the Harvest Time Parade on Sunday, Oct. 6.

Chapter members and their advisor Justin Ebert, who is also the OHS ag teacher, will be riding on a float in the parade.

Ebert said he is pleased the chapter was chosen.

“It’s very exciting,” he said.

“It was very humbling for the AOP Committee to consider the FFA Chapter. It’s nice to see the chapter getting that kind of recognition.”

The FFA chapter at Oregon High School was chartered on Nov. 13, 1937.

Fifteen members signed the charter along with officers Charles Wilmarth, president; Robert Lee

Oregon’s in 1971.

Currently the club’s membership is 64 high school students, a number that has remained consistent with a slight increase over the last few years, Ebert said.

Although FFA is sometimes perceived as an organizations for teens who come from the farm, Ebert said that is no longer the case.

“The number of kids who are from the farm is very small, although many have a connection, like maybe a grandparent who farms,” he said.

The chapter offers far more than traditional farm production activities.

Community projects include selling Christmas trees, baling hay for Pegasus Special Riders, serving a pork chop dinner in the summer and a cook-out in the fall, and raising poinsettias, as well as vegetable and flowering plants in the OHS greenhouse and selling them in season.

The club’s activities have

earned it the ranking of Gold Emblem Chapter and 12th in the state out of 314 chapters.

The ranking is based on the types of activities done by the chapter and the participation of members.

The chapter will be recognized at the National FFA Convention in Louisville, Ky., this fall as a 3 Star Chapter, the highest

ranking.

As well as benefitting the school and community, the activities are designed to develop leadership skills in members, Ebert said.

“The chapter has done very well,” he said. “The support we get from the community and the FFA Alumni helps us to be successful. It would be hard to do what we do

without it.”

FFA — Future Farmers of America — was founded in 1928 in Kansas City, Kans., by a group of 33 farm boys with the goal of bringing together students, teachers, and agriculturebased business to support agricultural education.

Now known as the National FFA Organization, the club

remains committed to the individual student, providing a path to achievement in leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.

The organization is working to expand the public’s view of “traditional” agriculture and finding new ways to infuse agriculture into the classroom.

Lady Hawks win again

at 5-4.

With the strength of its schedule, four losses will still get Oregon in. But, it is essential that the Hawks get past long-time rival Byron.

With a close loss (2821) to Stillman Valley last week, the Tigers gave notice that they can the role of spoiler. Byron’s record is also somewhat misleading in that they have played a tough non-conference schedule.

“When I heard the Stillman score, I was surprised,” Bothe said. “But, after watching the film, Byron played well. They are making less mistakes and are more physical than they were earlier. They played very clean, had less critical breakdowns and turnovers.”

Though they have one of their smaller varsity rosters in recent years, the Tigers have gained confidence in the last week or two. Directing the Byron offense is quarterback Baise Byers.

“He’s a good leader, capable of both running and throwing,” Bothe said.

The offensive line averages around 220 pounds and has a stalwart in junior Ross Sealby, the younger brother of graduated all-stater, Reid Sealby.

According the Bothe, the go-to-guy on offense is Austin Carlson.

“He had a good game

on both sides of the ball at running back and safety,” Bothe said.

Oregon needs to rebound after its worse showing of the season against Lutheran.

“All around, we did a lousy job,” Bothe said. “We were outmatched speed-wise, but as coaches and players, we need to do a better job.”

Besides the inability of the offense to generate much movement, the Hawks were hampered by poor field position.

“That was because of special teams,” Bothe said.

After the Byron and Winnebago games, Oregon closes out its schedule against Mendota and Rock Falls, two teams in the lower echelon of the west division.

However, with the quality of football played in the BNC, there are no longer any easy games to be had.

Even Mendota nearly beat Winnebago, losing 34-33.

“At one time, that may have been the case, but not any more,” Bothe said.

One major difference in the conference is scoring prowess. After five weeks, Lutheran leads with 221 points scored, followed by ‘Bago with 211, SV 175, Rock Falls 158, Mendota 141. Byron and Oregon are substantially less at 105 and 90 points.

The seventh grade volleyball team from David L Rahn Junior High concluded their home stand when they hosted Meridian on Sept. 24 and Winnebago Sept. 26.

The Eagles were pumped when the Cardinals came to DLR as they handed the Eagles their only conference loss of the season.

The Eagles looked good in game one. Their strong serving propelled them to a 25-21 win. Abigail Hopkins led the team with six service points.

Game two was one of the most exciting games of the year. It was a battle from start to finish as both teams hit well and dove often to retrieve errant passes.

The Cardinals squeaked out the 25-27 victory.

In the third and deciding

game, Meridian had the early advantage. DLR battled back to within two.

Service errors down the stretch cost the Eagles the game, 19-25.

Bailey Nelson had five points for the Eagles.

On Thursday, the Winnebago Indians were at DLR for another conference match.

The Eagle serving pinned the Indians down in game one, 25-10. Grace Mongan paced the Eagles with five points.

Game two was more of the same as Winnebago’s service reception faltered. DLR won, 25-13. Hopkins had 13 Eagle points.

It was a clean sweep in game three as the Eagles were victorious, 25-21.

Brooke Harris and Katelyn Reber each had four points.

By Andy Colbert Reporter Recently, the IHSA announced its Distinguished Media award winners and one of them was Lanny Slevin of LaSallePeru.

Over the 42 years that Lanny broadcast high school games, mainly on WLPO radio in LaSalle, he exemplified what it meant to be an ambassador for prep sports.

Though somewhat obscure on a larger cultural scale, the broadcasting of high school sports on radio is one of the things this country does best.

People like Slevin put so energy and enthusiasm into

night and hear the dulcet tones of football and basketball play-by-play. It’s a time-honored tradition that Slevin and his colleagues keep alive.

Among them, are longtimers like Don Werntz of Freeport, Jeff Leon of Rochelle and Jim Spencer of Sterling.

Werntz has been at this since 1973 and you can tell from listening to him that it never gets old.

Each Saturday evening after the regular season football season ends, I make sure to turn the dial to the Freeport station and listen to Werntz and his cronies discuss playoffs pairings for nearly five hours.

That’s genuine entertainment folks, if you are into high school football.

like Oregon, Byron, Stillman Valley and AFC. That’s amazing.

Unlike most other announcers, Leon is a solo act and I don’t think he’s ever called in sick in three decades at WRHL. Spencer has made such an impact on the young people in his community that the 2013 Sterling high school yearbook was dedicated to him.

The list goes on and on of radio broadcasting teams that keep doing the deal year after year.

The Oregon football program has been quite fortunate to have a regular broadcast for the past 14 years, perhaps the only BNC school to do so.

It’s been the same two guys all that time, as well. Sam

A little history on that.

FM 95.7 put a radio tower up in Mt. Morris in November of 1999.

A few months later, Ramirez, who was sports director for the station, got the call to do Oregon games.

Herman never intended to do Oregon games, but was asked by Steve Marco of the station after having done “Talk-Line” a few times.

“Steve said I had a good radio voice and asked if I would consider doing football games with Sam,” Herman said.

The two make a good couple. Sam was only 23 when he started announcing Oregon games and Mark old enough to be his father.

“We’ll do this to the day we die. We work so well together, even completing

football.

Another commonality with Ramirez and Herman doing the games has been the stability of coach John Bothe along for all 14 years.

“What sticks out most all this time has been John Bothe,” Ramirez said. “Some coaches can be prima donnas and hard to work with. John is a true gentleman and so accommodating to us.”

“Coach Bothe makes it so easy,” Herman said, indeed almost completing a Ramirez sentence.

A final note on high school sports broadcasting.

One the truly good men in the business passed away a few weeks ago and mention needs to be made because of something that he did for our country.

David Van Drew, who

Andy Colbert

died at 68 years old, worked in the radio industry most of his life, ending his career at WRHL as general manager.

But, his most significant call to duty was as serving in the army during the Viet Nam war and doing a weekly radio program from Saigon.

Thank you Dave for your contributions.

considerably more effort.

In the late 1800s, area farmers drug the road in their immediate area to keep it passable. These appointed “path masters” were of great assistance to the road commissioners of the day.

In addition, all able bodied men were required to pay a “poll tax” before they could vote.

Payment of the “poll tax” was accomplished by working on the roads under the supervision of the road commissioner one day per year.

As the Good Roads movement gathered steam, the work on the roads by volunteers became more organized.

In November of 1913, residents of the Mt. Carroll and Wacker area in Carroll County observed a Hard Roads Day, patterned after an earlier DeKalb County Hard Road Day, by improving an 80-rod

(1/4 mile) segment of road.

Wacker Road, four miles south of Mt. Carroll, was the focus of over 100 men and 35 teams for a day.

Merchants, doctors, lawyers, editors and men from all walks of life joined with the farmers of the area to build 80 rods of hard surfaced road.

Men were literally “falling over themselves” to get in line as shovelers.

Wagers were laid as to the best shoveler and there was more than a little bit of rivalry between “expert” shovelers.

Professional men of the city who could not get away for the day, hired men to go in their place.

Automobiles were offered to convey the men from town to the work. Local farmers offered their teams and the “town folks” furnished the shovelers.

Teams were loaded by the

Near Oregon, two roads were the beneficiaries of this day of road work.

Banks observed this day as a legal holiday by being closed and furnished representatives to participate in the cause of road construction.

Men with spades, shovels, and picks assembled at the Oregon bandstand before 7 a.m. that day to participate in “Good Roads Day.” The men were equally divided into two groups that would work on a piece of road east of Daysville and also work on a known bad segment of River Road near Castle Rock.

Merchants, doctors, ministers, and lawyers all scooped gravel that day and nursed their blisters and sore muscles that evening.

It was reported that former Congressman F.O. Lowden “vindicated his title to the

degree of expert shoveler.” (I wondered if this was a reference to the shoveling of gravel or something else.)

Later in the afternoon, he also sent a reserve force of men from his farm to support the slowing shovelers.

By the end of the day, 170 loads of gravel had been hauled to the road east of Daysville and a 40-rod (1/8 mile segment) of River Road had an excellent new road bed.

As an indication of the importance of this event to the communities of the day, the Ogle County Reporter summarized the activities of April 15, 1914, by stating “The zealous work and earnest cooperation of all classes of citizens in the local commemoration of Good Roads Day promises desirable things for Oregon and for Ogle County, in behalf of better roads.”

Editor’s note: The Ogle County Highway Department is 100 years old this year.

County engineer Curtis Cook has researched some of the highlights of the last century.

By Curtis Cook, P.E. Ogle County Engineer For more than 150 years, volunteer people have been assisting in the maintenance and construction of public roads.

Today, many farmers mow the roadsides adjacent to their farms and residents in town mow the boulevard in front of their homes.

In the 1800s and 1900s, this work on the roads involved

shovelers from the gravel pit within seconds and hauled the gravel the 1/4 mile to the work site where it was laid out and carefully graded.

By evening, 532 loads of gravel had been shoveled onto the wagons and hauled on the road.

An incredible 270 loads were hauled within a 3 1/2 hour period that day!

Upon completion, a stretch of Wacker Road had a new 18inch thick hard surface that was 9 feet wide for 80 roads. What an endeavor from these men!

Governor Dunne proclaimed April 15, 1914, “Good Roads Day” in Illinois and encouraged folk to participate in the Good Roads movement.

The newly-appointed Ogle County Superintendent of Highways, Alex Anderson, was involved in organizing the event in Ogle County.

In his early teens he worked with his father drilling water wells on farms all over Ogle County.

He knew every farmer and all the gravel roads in the area.

In high school during World War II, Dave drove cattle trucks to Chicago for his brother Jonas who was overseas in the service.

He always laughed that he played in every Oregon High School football game his senior year but never made it to a single practice.

He married Nellie Maxine Mongan at the Oregon Methodist Church on June 14, 1948 after a courtship that started at Decker’s Drug Store soda counter where she worked and continued with many miles skated at the White Pines Roller Rink.

The greatest disappointments in his life were the untimely loss of his wife, Nellie, to cancer in 1986; his medical rejection when he tried to follow his older brothers, Howard and Jonas, into the military service during World War II; and that he never had a chance to continue his formal education beyond high school.

National 4-H Week will be observed Oct. 6-12 Area youth are encouraged to learn about 4-H Members of Ogle County 4-H clubs will join the 7 million other youth currently celebrating National 4-H Week Oct. 6-12.

4-H youth development programs provide hands-on

learning activities for youth in Illinois and are assisted by more than 13,000 volunteer adult leaders.

Last year, 4-Hers in Ogle county were part of a survey to measure the value of the 4-H experience.

Dr. Denise Legvold, state 4-H program leader, said the results showed 4-H has a positive influence on the participants.

“4-Hers said that they feel welcomed at their 4-H club meetings and feel that adult leaders care about them,” Legvold said.

“And, nearly all of the members surveyed stated 4-H helped them develop independent life skills and prepared them for their future and possible careers.

“Many 4-Hers perform service project which

benefit their community, and over 90 percent of those surveyed could list ways to make a difference in their communities,” Legvold said.

“Nearly all of our graduating seniors reported they learned skills through 4-H they can use in a future job,” Legvold added.

Every county in Illinois has a 4-H program operated

through University of Illinois Extension. 4-H club membership is open to youth aged 8 to 18.

The new program year began Sept. 1, and new clubs are forming now.

To learn more about 4-H and enroll your child in a local club, contact the Ogle County Extension Office at 815-732-2191 or visit us online at the Ogle County

4-H web site at http://web. extension.illinois.edu/bdo/.

If you need reasonable accommodations to participate in 4-H, please inform the office.
