Lane change Alley Bowl to get new, synthetic lanes for better bowling game

By AMY HANSEN

Stttttrrrrike!!

The Alley Bowl in Osceola is making some important changes to create a better bowling experience for its patrons.

The Alley Bowl will be getting new, synthetic lanes, which is a thicker wood with a synthetic overlay.

“It’s basically what all the big Des Moines houses have, and all of the pro houses, like you see on TV, that’s what they have for lanes,” said manager Jeff Giza.

The Alley Bowl has a lane machine — the Brunswick Authority 22 — that puts down the oil to help keep the

lanes in top condition. It will allow them to lay a cleaner oil pattern for the bowlers, which allows for much higher scoring.

“We’ll have actually what they have out on pro tour.

So, we’ll have, basically, the best of the best, as far as lane and oil machine,” Giza said.

The new machine will help the Alley’s Bowl’s eight lanes be in top condition.

“The sky’s the limit for what these will help us with,” Giza said.

Construction was scheduled to start on the lanes Dec. 14, and it will take approximately five days for completion.

This is the Brunswick Authority 22 machine, which will help keep the lanes at the Alley Bowl in good condition.

Michelle Lee wasn’t feeling well that Tuesday morning. As a Clarke Community Middle School CORE teacher, she didn’t know if she would be able to get through the school day.

Fortunately for Lee, her luck was about to turn right around.

During a surprise ceremony, Lee received the Golden Apple award from WHO-TV 13 and Nationwide Insurance in Clarke’s auditorium.

“This is totally unexpected, because I’m going home because I’m sick today.

Thank you for this honor. I don’t even know what to say. It’s … thank you. I don’t know what else to say,” Lee said upon receiving the award.

Lee was visibly choked up, emotional and, most likely, in a state of shock

during her speech.

“You guys are all so special to me and, sometimes, you just don’t think you make a difference, and this just means the world to me. So, thank you, all of you. I love you all,” she said.

Golden Apple WHO-TV 13 and Nationwide’s Golden Apple award is a special recognition given to one teacher each month during the school year. It was a recognition program started 22 years ago.

Throughout the school year, students in the news station’s coverage area write letters and emails to the station stating why their favorite teacher is so special. Thousands of letters are received each year and each one is read and judged by officials from WHO-TV 13 and Nationwide.

Each month, judges pick a winning letter, contact the school’s principal and arrange for an assembly where the

chosen teacher is surprised with the award. The assembly is broadcast on the news by WHO-TV 13.

Sometimes a teacher will receive two or three nominations from different students, but Lee actually broke a record at WHO-TV 13 with 68 nominations.

‘Doing something right’ Tom Robson, account executive at WHO-TV 13, said seven days a week, the station’s photographers and reporters venture out throughout central Iowa to cover stories to inform and educate the public.

“As often as we can, we try to do good stories, where something or someone is really doing something right. And, right here, today, we have one,” he said.

Fourth of July committee in need of funding, makes request to city council

By AMY HANSEN

OST news editor ahansen@osceolaiowa.com

The Fourth of July holiday is more than a half a year away, but work on the event is already underfoot.

However, putting on a good event takes money, something Osceola’s Fourth of July committee is in need of right now.

During a Dec. 1 meeting, Osceola City Council discussed a request for financial assistance for the Fourth of July committee.

“As most of you know, the costs are increasing and the donations are staying the same or even lowering because our businesses give SINGLE COPY PRICE: 75¢

and give and give,” said committee member Bobbie Cook. “We’re here asking for the city’s help. We have one of the best celebrations in southern Iowa, and in order to keep it listed as the best celebration, I’d ask for the city to help us do that, if at all possible.”

The 2016 Fourth of July event in Osceola is planned July 1-4. The committee is working on the theme and costs of bands and musical entertainment.

Cook said the committee’s budget has started with $7,000 in their bank account, and in previous years, they’ve started with somewhere between $15,000 and $17,000.

This means they are starting out

already behind.

Last year, the committee spent $19,000 on entertainment alone.

Cook said the bands are getting more expensive. The sound system alone for the event last year was $3,000.

“You have to pay for good entertainment,” Cook said.

However, Cook said people will see a lot of changes in the coming year’s celebration, but the committee will still maintain the same quality of entertainment.

Coming from where?

Council members discussed ideas of the city contributing funds to the committee on a match basis.

Financial assistance would come from the city’s hotel/motel tax rev-

Branstad, Reynolds complete 99 county tour for 2015 DES MOINES – Recently, Gov. Terry Branstad and Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds announced they have completed their visits to all 99 of Iowa’s counties for 2015.

This announcement is now the fifth year in a row that both Gov. Branstad and Lt. Gov. Reynolds have visited all 99 counties — every year since they took office in 2011. They held a combined 692 public events in 2015.

“Visiting all 99 counties is a priority both the Lt. Governor and I share. We believe the best way to connect with the people of Iowa is to visit them each year,” Branstad said. “We have accomplished a lot since 2011,

but we are not done yet and this is the best way to hear Iowans’ ideas for growing a prosperous future for Iowa.”

Lt. Gov. Reynolds added, “These visits across Iowa reaffirm our commitment to openness, honesty and accountability to Iowans. This year, we visited schools, cafes, small businesses, agricultural operations and many more places across Iowa to let our citizens know that they don’t have to travel to Des Moines to have their voices heard. We will continue visiting every county every year to discuss and hear from hard-working Iowans on the issues our state faces.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

BACK IN TIME

Violence is never the answer

By Steve Waterman Osceola

On Friday, Dec. 4, 2015, Jerry Falwell, Jr., president of Liberty University, addressed a student forum on campus.

According to a news article, Liberty, located in Lynchburg, Virginia, is the largest Christian university in the world with about 14,000 resident students and about 100,000 online students. According to the same release, Liberty prides itself on its evangelical ideals.

During the address, he urges students to carry concealed weapons on campus in an effort to “end those Muslims.”

He was quoted as saying, “I’ve always thought if more good people had concealed carry permits, then we could end those Muslims before they walked in.”

When contacted by the New York Times, he said, “If I had to say it again, I would say it louder because it was hard to hear with the students talking.”

I have at least a passing knowledge of colleges and universities with Catholic, Lutheran, Mormon, Community of Christ, Disciples of Christ and United Methodist ties. I can’t imagine the leadership of these schools even thinking much less saying what Jerry Falwell told the Liberty students.

Why did I write this? I can accept those who believe differently than I believe. I can live with my faith being attacked. I cannot under any circumstance accept a professing Christian, much less a president of a “Christian university,” encouraging the exact opposite of the Christianity I and many others believe in.

Violence is not the answer to the issues we face.

Patrolmen

By Marie White

Clarke County Historical Society

During the week of June 12, 1956, the local patrol office had one of its rare get-togethers when all the patrolmen were

together at the same place. The occasion was the annual clothing inspection.

Sgt. Leon Schevalier, patrol quartermaster, came to Osceola to make the inspection and the patrolmen went to East Lake Park to show off their

uniforms. When Schevalier was stationed in Osceola in 1939, only three men covered a six-county area. He told of how the problems of patrolling 17 years prior were made more difficult by the fact there were few highways.

ALLEY BOWL: Continued from Page 1

The bowlers can expect to have the same shot every night because the lanes will be a lot easier to bowl on with the synthetic overlay.

“It’s going to make the shot so much better — just more consistent of a shot,” said employee Mike Lewis.

It’s not just the lanes that have a makeover at the Alley Bowl. Earlier this fall, a new roof was put on.

Giza discussed how many of the bowling houses in the southern Iowa area are closing down and the Alley

Bowl is seeing bowlers from all over the area.

This lane update was a chance for the Alley Bowl to offer high-quality bowling without having the longer driving distance of going to Des Moines for the sport.

“We wanted to take the bigger step to have what the Des Moines houses have, so we can offer everything that the big houses and the pro tour actually have,” Giza said. “We can actually try and have these big, big tournaments at our own little, small bowling alley.

The prestigious Golden Apple award has been around for 22 years.

“Because we’re down here, I want to mention something else about the Golden Apple. It really is about where your education is going to take you,” Robson said.

Surprise ceremony Even though the Golden Ap-

ple award was a surprise to the majority of people during the assembly, there was a lot of excitement in the air as students and staff filed in to the auditorium.

The high school band greeted guests with pep songs as they entered and took their seats.

Once Lee’s name was finally announced, The rounds of applause and standing ovations for her was deafening inside the au-

ditorium. High pitched whistles were also heard above the roar of the crowd.

“Michelle is an outstanding teacher, obviously,” said Clarke Community Middle School Principal Jeff Sogard. “ ... We’ve got lots and lots of other teachers here who are very well deserving and do a great job, as well.

So, I hope the kids here realize how lucky they are to have the teachers that they have.”

approximately $3,500.

“We lose a lot of the younger generation to Leon Rodeo and things like that,” Cook said. “We’re trying to keep the people here with us.

They’re spending money on the carnival rides. They’re eating at local vendors. They’re using Casey’s buying gas. My goal is to keep people in Osceola for four full days.”

Into the budget The council discussed the Fourth of July funding needing to be worked into the upcoming city comprehensive plan.

They also mentioned using hotel/ motel tax revenue and putting it into the budget every year, especially if this turns into an annual request from the Fourth of July committee.

Having more definitive funding approval by April was discussed, but so were the months of January or March.

Cook said bids on bands and carnival contracts were actually being worked on right now — many months in advance.

“Osceola’s known for the Fourth of July. We’re the best in southern Iowa.

We’re probably one of the best in the state of Iowa and more people come back for the Fourth of July in Osceola than any other thing. So, I say, go for it,” said Mayor Fred Diehl, who appeared to be in favor of the city funding the committee.

The council approved directing staff to work into the city’s budget for the next fiscal year an amount up to $10,000 to providing for the Fourth of July committee.

These are excerpts from the numerous Golden Apple award nomination letters for Michelle Lee “I believe that she is one of our best teachers.

She doesn’t just do her job because she needs to, she does it because she loves it. She embraces her teaching skills very well. When she teaches, she doesn’t just say what she has to say. She makes sure everyone in the class understands before we move on. She takes the initiative to stay after school and help kids who are in need. And, she is busy at times, but she finds room for everyone. I also believe she loves her job, and one day in class, she quoted, ‘If your career is what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.’ She isn’t just our teacher, she is our friend.”

—————— “Here at Clarke, we have many great teachers. This particular teacher is more than just a great teacher, though. She’s an amazing person to be around. She spreads joy and positivity. You can always count on her to brighten your day.

She gets kids to participate and be more active.

I haven’t met anybody who thinks she isn’t an extending person and teacher. She is smart, kind and caring. I think she deserves the Golden Apple award not only because she can get kids to sing songs about the quadratic formula but also because she can get them to genuinely enjoy it.”

CD sixth, Clarke ninth at Coach Riley Invite

By SCOTT VICKER

OST sports editor svicker@osceolaiowa.com

GREENFIELD — Central Decatur crowned two individual champions on its way to placing sixth here Saturday at the Coach Riley Invitational hosted by Nodaway Valley.

The Cardinals scored 101 team points, just 3.5 points behind Mount Ayr for fifthplace in the nine-team field.

Clarke, with one runner-up and two third-place finishers, took ninth with 71 points.

Clarke was led by 182-pound junior Nathan Bair, who cruised to the finals with a pair of pins.

Bair decked Bedford/Lenox junior Cody Sleep in 1:41 in the first period and then pinned Mount Ayr’s Hunter Wilson in 3:30, earning his spot in the finals against Clarinda’s second-ranked J.J. Clark.

Clark finished off his championship run by pinning Bair in 2:48.

Also earning spots on the medal podium for Clarke were 195-pound senior Isaac Lewis and 120-pound junior Brock Hamer.

MURRAY — Murray overcame a sluggish start and outscored Diagonal 20-3 in the third quarter to earn a 48-34 win in the Bluegrass Conference opener here Friday.

Diagonal’s press bothered Murray early in the game, as the Maroons took a lead of 14-7 after one quarter and led 23-19 going into halftime.

Murray tied the score at 23-23 on back-to-back baskets by Zadie Hatfield in the third quarter before Katie Sobotka buried a 3-pointer for Diagonal. But the Lady Mustangs went on an 18-0 run through the remainder of the third

quarter and into the fourth quarter.

Madison Gonseth finished with a game-high 18 points and grabbed eight rebounds for Murray, which improved to 2-1 overall.

Hatfield added nine points with six steals. Brandi Gilbert scored five points with six boards and four assists.

Katie Otto, Kayla Siefkas and Bre Klein each scored four points.

Diagonal was led by Emily Newton’s 11 points, while Kasydi Klommhaus netted eight points and Sobotka scored six. Jaci Haidsiak chipped in five points and Cassidy Becker scored four.

MURRAY — Murray survived early foul trouble and a second-half Diagonal rally to post a 49-42 win over the Maroons in the Bluegrass Conference opener here Friday.

The Mustangs built a 13-8 lead by the end of the first quarter on the strength of four baskets off offensive rebounds. That lead quickly grew to 21-8, as Kenny Boles hit a 3-pointer and Bryce Keller got a layup.

But Boles picked up three quick fouls and played less than five minutes of the first half. Murray post players Thane Simmons and Keller also found themselves in foul trouble in the first half.

“Foul trouble at the beginning of the game, we can’t do that,” Murray head coach Darin Wookey said. “Especially with three of our starters. Two bigs in foul trouble and Kenny can’t be in foul trouble. He won’t do that next game.”

Still, the Mustangs received quality minutes from junior Dustin Teas off the bench and took a 26-16 lead into halftime.

But Diagonal came out firing in the second half. Colter Pickering hit a 3-pointer and Jacob Taylor got a basket off a drive to the hoop.

Pickering made one of two free throws and Levi Jarred hit a 3-pointer off a dish from Taylor, capping a 9-0 run that cut Murray’s lead to 26-25.

agonal head coach Matt Warren said. “Give credit to them, playing good defense and forcing us to turn it over.

But I’ve gotta applaud our guys for digging in and cutting a 10-point deficit down to one and giving us a chance to win it.”

Murray responded to Diagonal’s run with back-toback 3-pointers from Boles to open up a 32-25 lead.

Jarred started the fourth quarter with a basket off a drive and then the left-handed Taylor dribble through the lane to his right and hit a jumper from the baseline,

cutting the Murray lead to 32-31.

Fisher Decker hit a big 3-pointer to quell the Diagonal spurt and Simmons added a basket before picking up his fourth foul.

Pickering eventually hit a floater in the lane and drew a foul, making the free throw to cut the Murray lead to 4542 with 40.6 seconds left in the game.

LEON — A young Clarke girls basketball team hung in with Class 2A ninth-ranked Central Decatur here on Dec. 1, but 12 missed free throws led to the Lady Indians suffering a 59-44 loss.

“Going to Leon is one of the toughest places to play,” Clarke head coach Eric Zoske said. “They always have good athletes and a good crowd.

Coach (Curtis) Boothe is one of the best coaches around here in southern Iowa. We played well. Going 8-of-20 from the free throw line, you kind of shoot yourselves out of it.”

Central Decatur took an early, going up 16-9 after one quarter and holding a 37-24 lead at halftime. But Clarke was able to cut the lead down to under 10 points in the third quarter.

The Lady Indians were unable to keep that momentum going, however.

“They pulled ahead and we never got back into contention,” Zoske said about the remainder of the second half.

“With our defense, we can’t give up 59 points. We’re not going to win many games giving up 59 points. We have to tighten some things up.”

Lily Simon led Central Decatur with 20 points to go with seven rebounds, five assists and three steals. Freshman Alli Masters added 17 points with six rebounds and four steals. Raegan Boothe recorded a double-double with 10 points and 12 rebounds.

For Clarke, Vanessa Bakley scored 14 points and Maddi Heath chipped in 12.

“Our offense is looking good. We shot a lot better percent this game than we did our previous game. That’s an improvement for us,” Zoske said. “We scored the majority of our points on the press break. These freshmen, they’re learning. They have

a ways to go yet, but they’re skilled enough they can dribble and pass through that press. We broke it and then we missed some shots right by the rim. That’s a killer.”

Boles added nine points with five boards and Decker scored eight points.

Taylor led Diagonal with 15 points and recorded a double-double with more than 10 rebounds. Pickering added 11 points and Jarred scored nine points.

“I thought probably one of the biggest keys in the game — our press bothered them,” Wookey said.

“When they went on that run, we weren’t scoring.

We told our kids, we need to get in our press. We have to score to get into the press. Once we got to scoring, we got back into it and caused some fits with it.”

Murray, now 2-0, hosts Mormon Trail on Tuesday, while Diagonal (1-2), hosts Orient-Macksburg Tuesday and Moravia on Friday.

Murray’s game against Mormon Trail will also serve as the Murray School Foundation’s free will donation pancake supper, raising money for Murray senior scholarships. The pancake supper will run from 4:45 p.m. until 6:30.

MURRAY: Continued from page 6

Keller streaked unnoticed toward the Murray basket and got an easy l a y u p , Keller drawing a foul.

Officials ruled it a flagrant foul, which gave Murray the ball back after Keller made the free throw to make the score 48-42.

Murray shot just 5-of-16 from the free throw line in the game, but made just enough down the stretch to hold off the Maroons.

Another key was getting offensive rebounds or forcing Diagonal turnovers off missed free throws, keeping the Maroons from getting the necessary possessions needed to cut into the lead.

Keller and Simmons led Murray with 13 points each, while Simmons

When the Iowa Hawkeyes won their first game, there were congratulations all around. After all, people thought Coach Ferentz was a little crazy to name the quarterback, C.J. Beathard, so early in the year. But he played well, the team played well and they pulled off the victory.

Game 2, same result. Game 3, game 4, game 5, game — wait a minute — this was really beginning to look like something unique. Fans who had been holding out began to jump on the bandwagon. Then came games 7, 8 and 9. This team was on a roll! Undefeated at 9 and 0. More “fans” came on board. It was 10 and 0, then 11 and 0 and headed to Nebraska. Wait, Nebraska looked to be the toughest game of the season, up to this point.

Some of the “fans” began to waver. A few jumped ship and a some just played, “wait and see.” Iowa rolled into Tom Osborne Field in Lincoln, Nebraska, and headed home with another victory and a 12-0 record — something that had never been achieved in University of Iowa football history. Iowa would play Michigan State for the Big 10 Championship.

Michigan State represented another challenge. Were the Hawkeyes up to it? Some fans said, “YES!” Others said, “Nope, can’t be done.” And still others played, “Wait and see” again. The questions were answered on the field in a hard fought, well played game. Michigan State came out on top.

Some “fans” jumped on negative rhetoric right away, knocking down the Hawkeyes, denouncing the coach, giving up on the team altogether. The rest of us wondered, “Why would they do that?” The answer lies in the fact that they were, “fans.” They didn’t believe.

The thing is, many people — perhaps even you — many people see God in the same way. They see Him as a, “fan.”

So, as long as things are going well and we’re able to over-

come temptation, God’s in our corner cheering us on. But the moment we stumble, the moment we fall, the moment we give in to some temptation, many people think God just abandons us. They think He turns His back and condemns us as failures who will never make it.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

God isn’t your “fan.” “Fans” are fickle. God’s not fickle, He’s faithful. He’s not your “fan,” He truly believes in you — and He won’t walk away when you fail. And, you will fail. No one is perfect. But when you fail, God doesn’t go anywhere. He stays right there to help you, take your hand and help you continue to move forward.

Following the game, the stadium began to clear, but as the Iowa team gathered in their end zone to head for the locker room, there was a massive sea of black and gold as Iowa fans stood and cheered in a long ovation. The Hawkeyes joined hands in the end zone and walked off the field the same way they came on — with their heads held high.

When you stumble and fall, get right back up, take God’s hand and continue moving forward. God’s not going anywhere. He’s always going to be there for you to turn to and lean on. And remember this promise: “So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic. For the LORD your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.”

When you stumble and fall, God will still be there. Get back up and keep moving forward, hand in hand with Him. Oh yeah, the Hawkeyes play in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1, 2016, and I invite you to join me in cheering them on!

OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNE

Water works to hold public hearing for 2016 rate increase As a courtesy to the Osceola Water Works customers, the water works board is hosting a public hearing based on a proposed water service rate increase in 2016.

This hearing will be at the Osceola Water Works office 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 7. The board would like to discuss the factors that have led to the proposed rate increase, as well as the costs associated with management and servicing the water for the city.

Osceola’s water taste and odor has been a large focus for the water board in 2015.

While the water works team has worked to address the taste and odor issues with a variety of chemical treatment solutions, West Lake’s proximity to the treatment plant has made

the contact time with these agents less than effective.

Solar Bees added to West Lake to control algae have shown some progress, but that is also a solution that will be fully realized over time.

After meeting with engineer Mark Duben, a strategy for addressing the immediate issues was developed.

By increasing the frequency in which the carbon filters at the treatment plant are changed out, the process will accelerate the removal of a host of organics, as well as byproducts of chemicals used to fight taste and odor issues.

Another solution discussed was changing the filtering process to ozone, but that would include substantial start-up costs and would only be impacting if

Osceola was seeing the issues on a daily basis.

Duben went further to explain that he was seeing a rise in costs for treating surface water throughout the country. The weather also plays a huge role in treating surface water.

With Duben’s insight on

Iowa weekly fuel update, outlook Average retail gasoline prices in Iowa have fallen 2.3 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $2.03/g, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 2,036 gas outlets in Iowa. This compares with the national average that has not moved in the last week to $2.03/g, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.

Areas nearby Iowa and their current gas price climate: Quad Cities- $1.92/g, down 1.3 cents per gallon from last week’s $1.93/g.

Des Moines- $2.22/g, up 1.2 cents per gallon from last week’s $2.21/g.

Omaha- $2.04/g, down 0.9 cents per gallon from last week’s $2.05/g.

Including the change in gas prices in Iowa during the past week, prices were 58.7 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 31.2 cents per gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased 18.5 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 63.2 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.

“The next 24 hours will likely see the national average drop to a new sixplus year low. The U.S. average needs to fall just seven-tenths of a penny from its current $2.032 per gallon (to $2.025/gal.) to be the lowest since March 25, 2009,” said Patrick DeHaan, GasBuddy senior petroleum analyst.

“As for the outcome of OPEC’s meeting late last week: OPEC is going to wait for production to resume

from Iran before looking at oil production quotas again next year. While we wait and see what that next meeting might bring, high oil production will likely continue to boost already record high oil inventories, keeping gasoline prices somewhat subdued. The national average has once again resumed falling after Turkey’s downing of a Russian fighter jet caused a brief hiatus, but with prices moving lower, a $1.99 national average gasoline price could be something we witness this week,” he added.

The rate increase of 10 percent is proposed to take

effect on Feb. 1.
