Governor aims for compromise in split state Legislature BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR
MAPLEWOOD — Gov. Tim Walz said he was pleased with how the Legislature compromised for the good of Minnesota this session but is not yet satisfied because the state left several important issues unsolved this year. These include roads, climate change and gun violence. Yet, Walz was proud of standing with the House and Senate majority leaders at the end of the session to say they came up
with a pretty good solution on the state's budget. Walz, a Democrat, was leading the country's only split state Legislature; the Minnesota House majority is Democrat and the Senate majority is Republican. He said he was criticized for giving Republican Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka credit for the budget, but he is still proud of working together. “It's not about winning or losing political battles but finding longterm solutions,” Walz told a group gathered for an event hosted by the White Bear Area Chamber
of Commerce at the Maplewood Community Center July 23. “I'm not naive. I supervised a high school lunchroom.” Walz hopes that the Legislature can come up with compromises on more divisive issues in 2020. “2020 is going to be a challenge because everything that was kicked down the road was tough ones,” he said. For example, climate change and gun violence. “They tend to be divisive, but they have to be addressed,” he noted. SEE WALZ, PAGE 9A

2 new traffic lights proposed for bus line BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

Relay for Life celebrates 25 years Survivor’s Lap participants walk around the track at South Campus during the American Cancer Society Relay for Life of White Bear Area Friday, July 26. Organizers managed to conduct the opening ceremony with guest speakers before thunderstorms moved into the area and disrupted the timing of the proceedings.
MAPLEWOOD — There are two new traffic lights proposed in White Bear Lake to accommodate the future Rush Line bus line. One would be located at Highway 61 and Whitaker Street and one would be located at Highway 61 and Eighth Street, according to the 15%-stage draft engineering plans approved by the Rush Line Policy Advisory Committee at a July 25 meeting at the Maplewood Community Center. Both locations are planned bus stops for the BRT (bus rapid transit) line from downtown St. Paul through the Bruce Vento Regional Trail in Maplewood to the Maplewood Mall and then up to downtown White Bear Lake. The bus line would cut over at Buerkle Road in Vadnais Heights and follow bus-only lanes proposed on Highway 61 up to the final stop on Washington Avenue, between Seventh and Eighth Streets in White Bear Lake. The route is 14 miles long; a bus would arrive at each stop every 10 minutes during
rush hour, and every 15 to 30 minutes during non-peak hours. Buses would run from 5 a.m. to midnight. The Minnesota Department of Transportation is currently reviewing the proposed busonly lanes on Highway 61. The bus-only lanes would also allow regular drivers to access businesses. “This is new but increasingly common,” said Jim Gersema, SRF consultant engineer. Adding bus-only lanes to the section of Highway 61 would cause a 30-second time improvement for all traffic on the road, he noted. At the County Road E stop, there are platforms proposed on either side of the highway next to the bus lanes. It is proposed that 70 parking stalls be added at the Vadnais Heights Sports Center for a park and ride. There is also a stop with platforms proposed at Cedar Avenue. At Whitaker Street, a new three-way traffic light is proposed at Highway 61 to accommodate the stop and platforms. “This is the best option for the pedestrian SEE RUSH LINE, PAGE 8A

Carol’s Place: Garage sale to end all garage sales Earlier this month, Mary Latterell held one last garage sale on Hill Avenue in White Bear Lake to honor her late mother Carol. Her mother held two to three garage sales every year for 45 years in the same house, using all proceeds for charities, Latterell said. It all started when Carol wanted to help a friend who had two sons with multiple sclerosis. “They lived away from the Cities and needed to drive in frequently for doctor visits. They didn't have a wheelchair access vehicle, so she helped raise money for a used one.” The story is one of many, Latterell shared, that describe how her mother helped people in the White Bear community. “We want to honor all those who frequented her sales by allowing one last shopping spree,” she noted. So, as a family, they gathered all her saved and premarked items and held what was advertised as Carol's Place Final Sale. Carol died in February of lung cancer. Debra Neutkens

Spinoff from NASA
W
E JUST CELEBRATED the 50th anniversary of the Apollo landing on the moon, an amazing, remarkable achievement and a downright difficult-to-understand feat. From this achievement, NASA developed a huge array of technology and products that are benefiting consumers. Through the process, over a thousand U.S. patents were granted to people working on the project. The source for the information in this column came in part from the NASA Technology Transfer Program. The list of inventions goes on and on, but let me share a few that I’ve come to appreciate About the and that might make your Top 10 list. I think we are all Town familiar with memory foam. Gene Johnson One of the engineers, Charles Yost, worked on the modules to be sure the astronauts could be recovered safely after landing. Researchers discovered “slow spring back foam” and later Yost developed the “temper foam.” Of course, since then memory foam is used in many applications, from the Dallas Cowboy’s helmets to high comfort insoles in shoes. Another invention was the anti-corrosion coating to deal with the extreme cold in space and the heat from the rocket exhaust system. As a saltwater boater, we have experienced the destructive forces from ocean spray and fog and its corrosive element. One of the celebrated applications of this coating came in the 1980s when it was applied to the Statue of Liberty to curb further deterioration. ArterioVision pairs ultra-sound equipment with NASA’s software genius to be able to detect early signs of arteriosclerosis, which threatens heart attacks and strokes. Now, with this ArterioVision, signs of cardiovascular illness can be detected in early stages. Cochlear implants – in the late ’70s, Adam Kissiah, Jr., a hearing-impaired engineer, came up with a concept for a new type of hearing aid, an implant that produced digital pulses to stimulate the auditory nerve endings that would then transmit the signals to the brain. Another benefit we have today is scratchresistant eyeglass lenses. This provided the shift from glass lenses, which were heavy and dangerous, to a durable plastic. Ted Wydeven, while working another project, came up with a coating that was surprisingly tough. This abrasion-resistant lens was used for space helmet visors and in 1983 Foster Grant used the technology in sunglasses. Another development was the insulin pump, which researchers, working on the Mars Viking spacecraft and anticipating traveling farther into space, designed for monitoring the astronauts’ health. Through the space program we have water fi lters that have been developed to provide clean water that is safe to drink. Further spinoffs from NASA’s technology have given us LEDs, infrared ear thermometers, improved radial tires, fi refighting gear, cordless vacuums, powdered lubricants, and LASIK eye surgery. Space projects have helped us in our everyday lives. The program was curtailed under President Richard Nixon. Research is valuable to us every day. Programs like this enhance it. It brings industry and universities together toward worthy goals and achievements. Let’s push forward. Gene Johnson is publisher emeritus of Press Publications

Give me a home where the butterflies roam
O
n May 11, 1858, the United States of America welcomed its 32nd state to the union – 18 million acres of prairie, 21 million acres of wetlands, 31.5 million acres of forests and 11,842 lakes, now lovingly known as Minnesota. Over the years, Minnesota has grown and prospered. Settlers drained wetlands to make way for cities and farms, and loggers felled towering pines, which they floated down the rivers to become houses, boats and stables. During the 1970s, a wave of environmentalism swept through the U.S. and, in years since Movers & the then, we’ve mostly towed the line, Shakers maintaining roughly 50% of the Angie Hong original wetland and forest acreage in our state to support a vibrant culture and economy of tourism, hunting and outdoor recreation. What, though, became of the prairie? Today, a mere 250,000 acres of native prairie remains in the state of Minnesota. It is a little more than 1% of the total that once covered the land. As the prairie has vanished, so too we have seen the decline of native bees, butterflies, grassland birds and, in many places, clean water. But, there is still a spark of hope. Over the past 15 years, a new wave of environmentalism has swept the state – much of it focused on individual action and locally led
change. People have come to realize that their backyards, whether large or small, can be part of the solution. The Pledge to Plant led by West Metro Water Alliance, Metro Blooms, Wild Ones, Blue Thumb and Monarch Joint Venture, calls on Minnesotans to plant 10,000 native gardens for pollinators and clean water by the year 2020. Pollinator Friendly Alliance, a citizen-led organization th at got its start in Washington County, has also worked with cities and counties in recent years to pass resolutions to increase habitat and eliminate the use of systemic insecticides. To date there are 39 “PollinatorFriendly” communities in Minnesota, including the local communities of Lake Elmo, Mahtomedi, Stillwater, Stillwater Township and White Bear Lake; as well as Chisago County Washington County and the Ramsey County Parks Department. In addition, Pollinator Friendly Alliance is working with Washington Conservation District, Washington County Parks and local communities to restore pocket prairies for pollinator habitat. One example is the Pollinators Landing at Mulberry Creek in Stillwater (corner of Owens Street N. and Laurel Sreet. W.), where the Alliance worked with the city and community partners to create a bee-lawn, seeded with self heal, white dutch clover, creeping fescues and hard fescues, as well as a native flower garden containing wild bergamot, rough blazingstar, yellow headed coneflower, Joe-Pye weed, compass plant, oxe-eye, New England aster, fragrant hyssop, heartleaf Golden Alexander,

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Charitable gambling — what it means to our communities After reading a recent White Bear Press article "Pull-tab pie," it felt necessary to respond with a letter explaining the view of another American Legion Post. As the assistant gambling manager for the Bayport American Legion, Post 491, it's understandable how the Kramer-Berg Legion Post 507 might be worried about its future; charitable gambling is a competitive industry. There is legitimate concern with hockey associations coming into the picture and taking over some of the business. When these organizations come in, all of their profits will be going towards hockey. They will not be supporting the community in other ways or our veterans and veterans' families, which is what the Legion's charitable gambling mission is all about. Stillwater
Hockey recently tried to take over a couple of the Bayport Legion's sites and, fortunately, I believe our bar owners realized that this would hurt the efforts we put out for the community and veterans. This year alone, we have donated to almost every sporting team in the Stillwater district by cash donations and also by hosting purse bingo as fundraisers for their organizations. $10,000 was donated to Stillwater Hockey directly to fund new locker rooms at their home arena. Our pull tabs have been in Cozzie's Tavern in Stillwater since they opened, so it seems it would only make sense for Chris Cosgrove to want to stick with us at his new site in Mahtomedi. We have been successful for him and, as a business owner, he wants to go with what he knows works. Chris has been assured by us that we would be more than happy to donate to the Mahtomedi/ Willernie community just as we have supported our Stillwater, Hugo, Lakeland,
Bayport and surrounding communities. The past two years we donated a total of $15,000 for the Mahtomedi baseball team and welcome any other donation requests. I think for some of the smaller legions, it would be beneficial to work together. We welcome you to visit us at the Bayport American Legion; the public is always welcome. Kelly Smith Green (Bertelsen) Marine on St. Croix
Repeating the past In response to Paul Reitman’s “What would we do today?” letter on July 17: This most certainly will come to pass if the radical left comes to power. With socialism embedded in their agenda. The “war to end all wars” was fought against Facism, Nazism, Communism and Totalitarianism. Most of the “isms” were defeated; others are becoming failed states. And atrocities galore. Now it is no longer without but within. Think
the world’s a bad situation now? Wait till there is no USA to save the day. Socialism abides in all the aforementioned. The people of this country better wake up. Mainstream media outlets are owned by such like-minded people and organizations. There are other outlets that tell the other side of the story. Trump is rude, but I don’t want to wake up someday and fi nd myself missing him. Mike Gibbons White Bear Lake
Make Hugo its own district Instead of spending millions of dollars on improving schools, it is time to redistrict and let Hugo have its own district, separate from White Bear. White Bear is tearing down homes to build senior housing, and Hugo has the land and the population of young families to support the schools. Over the years,
White Bear has closed many elementary schools and, it seems to me, wasted a lot of money. Karen Hamer White Bear Lake
Why such a large school bond? According to the most recent estimate, the population of Minnesota is 5.68 million. This population is represented by 201 legislators. According to an article in the White Bear Press on July 24, "White Bear Schools’ bond would be biggest in state history,” this bond issue was devised by a 90-member committee. Why such a large committee, and why such a large school bond? What areas does the school district encompass and how many children? Since a school bond issue affects everyone in the district, a follow-up article with facts and fi gures should be written. Gary Zweig White Bear Lake

WHITE BEAR LAKE CITY COUNCIL NOTES WHITE BEAR LAKE — City Council members took the following action at the July 23 meeting: • Accepted a $25,000 donation from the White Bear Lions Club to build an all-abilities all-inclusive park. Lion Jim Francis presented the check. • Heard a presentation from White Bear Events Chair Dale Grambush recapping highlights from the summer's Manitou Days festival. Grambush thanked the many sponsors for their help, as well as the collaboration between city staff and Manitou Days staff. He noted that social media interaction with the Manitou Days pages was prolific; over the month of June, there was an average of 236 daily interactions with the Manitou Facebook page consisting of likes, comments and shares. • Completed a first reading of an ordinance revision to the gambling regulatory tax of 2% charged to organizations with licensed gambling premises. The revision allows the city to collect up to 2% of these gambling proceeds; the City Council can then choose to redistribute the money to charitable and nonprofitable organizations listed in the revision. The City Council also has the option to collect the money into funds, such as the park improvement fund. Councilman Dan Jones proposed the use of a flat fee in place of a percentage of proceeds because some gambling premises bring in more money than others. City attorney Troy Gilchrist noted that a flat fee should be possible because the ordinance states the tax will be no more than 3% of total proceeds but does not explicitly say the amount must be in the form of a percentage.
Mayor Jo Emerson suggested foregoing the second reading of the revision at the next meeting if there is no need to revise the ordinance. • Authorized contract extensions with Republic Services waste collection and Eureka Recycling. Both contracts are seven years in length. The proposal from Republic reflects a 2% rate increase as budgeted, an overall 10% increase in 2020 because of a change to a flat hauler rate, a 4% increase in 2021 and a 2% increase in the remaining years. • Approved consent agenda items, including a temporary liquor license for Saint Mary of the Lake's annual concert, a single-event liquor license extension for Carbone's third annual Tent Party, on-sale and Sunday liquor licenses for The Brickhouse LLC and The Meet Market, authorization of use by Ladies of the Lake of the Railroad Park Pavilion for commerce, authorization of repayment of gambling tax contributions and authorization of the mayor and city manager to execute a professional service agreement with Northeast Youth and Family Services for a mental health case worker. • Discussed moving forward with Abdo, Eick & Meyers CPA firm as the city's auditing service. Reasons for extending the partnership another two years included continuity, familiarity with the firm and the full integration of the online auditing software this year that the firm has been working on with the city. City Manager Ellen Hiniker reminded the council of Night to Unite, to take place Aug. 6. Night to Unite is a celebration and bonding event for local business-

RAMSEY COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Ramsey County Sheriff's Office reported the following incidents:
Vadnais Heights • Deputies pursued a dirt bike without a license plate or lights in the area of Labore Road and County Road E July 14. The bike went south on Arcade Street and blew through stop signs at around 70 mph. After the dirt bike went through a stop sign at Edgerton Street, the driver looked over his shoulder at the deputy's squad. The dirt bike ran a stop sign on County Road D and slowed down quickly as it approached the 3000 block of Edgerton Street. The dirt bike skidded and went down an embankment. The man fled a few yards on foot but he then put his arms in the air and allowed himself to be arrested. When asked why he fled, he said he knew he couldn’t drive the dirt bike on the road since it didn’t have lights and his license was revoked. He said he took the dirt bike from his friend without the friend’s permission. • There was a garage fire in the 3300 block of Centerville Road July 14. The fire was extinguished, and residents were

She said that the vehicle had been scheduled to be repossessed by her bank. She said that she had parked it at her workplace in Inver Grove Heights over the
weekend of July 12, unlocked and with the keys inside, expecting it to be picked up by July 15. She said that when she arrived at work on the morning of July 15 it was gone, and she assumed that the bank had picked it up. She said that surveillance video showed that a man had driven off with it on the morning of July 13.

It appeared that someone had entered the garage and taken the plates. • A barking dog was reportedly inside a vehicle for 20 minutes with the back window cracked open in the 900 block of County Road E July 17.

Red, white, blue in abundance at Railroad Park next month A patriotic theme will be prevalent in downtown Railroad Park Aug. 24. Special Teams Charities founder Jeff Loeks is cooking up a celebration he's calling “America Is Beautiful.” Loek's name should be familiar. The former Army Ranger and White Bear firefighter usually has at least one event planned each summer to fundraise or raise awareness about a pet cause. He's the guy who walked from Duluth to White Bear Lake in 2013 to raise money for a special ATV for the fire department. Last year he led a group of firefighters, police officers and nurses on a 100-mile trek along the Superior Hiking Trail to bring attention to violence against health care workers. In 2017, Loeks and his fiancée Racheal Haasken filled a panel truck full of food for the White Bear food shelf. At its conclusion, the two then said their vows at the “Fed & Wed” benefit. That happy event also took place at Railroad Park. The goal of “America Is Beautiful,” Loeks said, is “to unite people.” “It is going to be an all-inclusive, full day of celebrating what is great about America,” explained the charity-minded White Bear resident, who works as an emergency room technician. “We will be collecting items to ship to deployed soldiers for Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Network. Our biggest hope is that veterans stop by so we can recognize them. We'd like family members to bring elderly veterans. We will be taking pictures with them using our American flag backdrop, and a board to display their names and what unit they were in. Grandma's Bakery will be doing something special for the event to assist with this recognition.” There will also be bagpipes, patriotic

music, a lemonade stand, barbecue and muscle cars, Loeks added. The Army veteran has been interviewing people this past year as to why they love America and will continue those interviews at the event. “I hope to show that it is possible for us all to get along and not have the division that the news would have you believe is so strong,” he said. “I've learned that we all ultimately have the same goals of success, and love of America.” Debra Neutkens SUBMITTED

Foundation gives out grants in area districts The Vadnais Heights Area Community Foundation (VHACF) has finalized grants to seven different nonprofit organizations in an effort to assist neighbors in need and to enhance the community. “We are extremely pleased with opportunity to support so many of our local organizations in this round of grant making,” stated VHACF Chair Jerry Moynagh. “There were so many applications from diverse areas that were so deserving, leading us to give grants to a near record seven groups.” Grants were provided for a variety of projects including to Mounds View Community Theater for its upcoming production of the Man of La Mancha. An exciting play adopted from Cervantes' Don Quixote. This production aims to include area actors and stage hands from all walks of life giving those with the passion for theater a local outlet. The Matoska International School received a grant to conduct a workshop with employees and staff around social justice and anti-bias in the classroom. “It is so critical that our children receive an education geared towards them. We felt the mission of eliminating bias in our classrooms helped meet that need and we
are pleased that we could contribute to this worthy mission,” Moynagh said. VHACF provided a grant to the Willow Lane Elementary School PTO to help provide scholarships for fifth graders to go on an environmental field trip at Camp Icaghowan in Amery for two days. Newtrax was provided a grant to expand its community senior circular, which been a success in helping seniors continue to live in and move about the community. Rounding out the grants this session were the 2019 White Bear High School Visual Arts Contest and a grant for animal therapy for clients of Merrick. The VHACF is an endowment fund created by the citizens of Vadnais Heights to work with grant partners and strengthen the local community. To learn more about VHACF or to make a donation, visit www.vhacf.org. The next round of grant applications are due end of August. Any nonprofit organization in the White Bear or Mounds View School District are welcome to apply.

RUSH LINE: Bus-only lanes proposed on Highway 61

A new traffic light is proposed at Highway 61 and Whitaker Street to accommodate the Rush Line bus line stop that is planned at the site. FROM PAGE 1A
safety element to cross to BRT platforms,” Gersema said. The highway would be reconstructed and shifted to the east, he added, to create more space between the railroad and Highway 61. A traffic light at Eighth Street is also proposed to allow pedestrians to more easily cross Highway 61 to the platform on Washington Avenue. At that final stop, there would be a driver facility to allow bus drivers to use the restroom. The policy advisory committee made up of local politicians and stakeholders from the communities along the route unanimously approved the 15% draft plans at the meeting. The project has been under discussion for a decade and is in the environmental phase of review. When that is completed in 2020, project development and final engineering are expected to take four years. Construction is anticipated in 2024 and implementation in 2026. White Bear residents oppose bus line Several White Bear Lake residents came to the meeting The Rush Line bus plans in downtown White Bear Lake include a potential new stoplight at Highway 61 and Eighth Street. to oppose the bus line or the downtown White Bear Lake station. Peter Nielsen, who lives near the proposed station at Seventh and Eighth Streets, said the driver facility and platform doesn’t make sense at the location. It would be better to put a final station in Hugo, where there is more room for people to park. “We can’t handle it right now in the city of White Bear,” he said. An Eighth Street resident, Sharon Anthony, said she tallied cars on her street for a week and discovered 1,000 daily. She said the location is not good with the middle and high school so close by; there would be an increase in traffic, especially if the proposed addition at North Campus is made — there would be an increase from 1,200 to 3,400 high schoolers. She also said she doesn’t think it’s a good idea to have a bus station so close to the youth. Loretta Wheeler, who lives on County Road E in White Bear Lake, said she doesn’t think the bus line is needed at all. She rode the bus to downtown St. Paul from Maplewood Mall for 20 years and it was a quick, 20-minute ride, she said. “I don’t see why we have to fi x it,” she said.

WALZ: Attempts Compromise FROM PAGE 1A

SARA MARIE MOORE | PRESS PUBLICATIONS
Shoreview resident Mark Hughes came to hear Gov. Tim Walz speak at the White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce event July 23. He said he came to ask the governor to move Metro Mobility back under the Metro Transit umbrella. He thinks the service would then be more reliable because workers would be paid better; the starting wage is about a $4 difference.
“It's not about winning or losing political battles but finding long-term solutions.” Tim Walz Minnesota governor The biggest unfinished business for Minnesota, he said, is the roads. Walz believes there should have been bonding or gas taxes passed for road construction and maintenance this year. He proposed a gas tax of 20 cents a gallon and tried to compromise down to one cent, he said. He proposed a gas tax because Minnesota’s gas tax falls below the national average. However, the gas tax proposal was “ideologically poison” to politicians and residents. But the state is $18.7 billion short in road funding, Walz noted. “I would ask all of you come back and analyze the cost and find a way to do this,” he said. “If your roof is falling in, it is not being fiscally conservative to let it fall in and delay when you could have got better interest rates.” He said the state has almost as many roadways as Texas or California because prior generations invested to make the state connected and modern to increase the standard of living. “Future generations are looking to us to do our fair share,” Walz said. “Eleven cents would put us on par with what previous generations invested.” The gover nor said he doesn’t want to pay a gas tax himself but the money to keep Minnesota’s roads in shape has to come from somewhere. “Ask not what Minnesota can do for you; ask what you can do for Minnesota,” he said. In 2020, he hopes the roads can be addressed instead of “kicking the proverbial can down the potholed road” again. Walz said he was pleased to see the only divided state Legislature in the nation end the session with dignity; it completed a budget on time for the first time in a decade. “We proved there are compromises to be found,” he said. “Folks compromise for the good of Minnesota.” One factor that led to increased compromise this year were some final budget meetings that were closed to the public. The government was criticized for making decisions behind closed doors, but Walz said it needed to occur to reach a compromise. “We are in a situation now where no one can compromise in public,” he said. Walz said he wants to work on making the proceedings as transparent as possible, but it is difficult for compromise to occur under the public eye when people “blow things apart,” he said.
Rare Mustang resurfaces 50 years after rolling off factory floor If you're looking for more muscle in your life, check out a recent addition to the White Bear Lincoln Mercury showroom. Awaiting a new owner: A 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT 500 coupe in Acapulco Blue. The car came from a private collection in Minnesota, said General Manager Travis Peterson. That's as much as he'd say about the previous owner. He also said the fastback is the most expensive car the dealership has ever owned. One of only 1,044 made in 1968, the car cost $4,831 new. Peterson has the invoice from Shelby Automotive Co. in Southfield, Michigan, to prove it. Today the car's price tag is $139,900.
He describes the car as “investment grade.” “This is the real deal,” said Peterson, who noted the car sold new at Horn-Williams Motor Co. in Dallas. The GT500 comes with the Police Interceptor 428-cubic-inch big block V-8 with a Holly fourbarrel carburetor, four-speed transmission, power steering and brakes, a fold-down rear seat, shoulder harnesses and roll bar. The late Carroll Shelby's signature is on the passenger-side sun visor. There is only one way to test drive the Mustang, noted Peterson: “You have to buy it first.” Debra Neutkens

Loon Chronicles IV: Loons gone wild! What a week for watching Loons! The early morning Loon parties continue to entertain and delight. Unlike last week, this week was high energy and loud. We were lucky enough to take in several territorial skirmishes with some of the most bizarre behaviors we have seen to date. One morning, a pair of Loons faced off and started calling at and to each other with their trademark tremolo calls. The cacophony went on for several minutes. It did not take long for one of the Loons to rise up in the air, while thrusting his chest out, and start flapping and flailing his wings in the water. At one point, it looked like the Loon was dancing on the water, with wings extended and bill aimed straight down into the water. This is known as the Penguin dance and is usually on display while competing for territory or trying to scare off predators. This is also the pose featured in the Minnesota Lottery logo and the Minnesota United FC Loons.
THIS WEEK’S EARLY MORNING LOON PARTIES WERE ABSOLUTELY OUT OF CONTROL! THE PENGUIN DANCE WAS ALL THE RAGE, ACCOMPANIED BY NON STOP TREMOLO CALLS AND WING FLAPS

WEATHER TIDBIT What’s the big deal? Interruptions in my favorite TV shows. It was the northern and northeast suburbs turn to receive the weather attention this past week. On Friday, July 26 an isolated severe storm tore from Blaine to White Bear, dropping up to golf ball size hail along with high winds. After a peaceful Saturday, where I completed my second Voyageur 50-mile run in Duluth (thank you), Sunday brought us another round of severe weather concentrated over Anoka and Washington counties with the cities of Forest Lake and Scandia reporting tornados and damage. We’re looking forward to a more restful week ahead.

1919 L. J. Markoe was taken seriously ill at Lonsdale about two weeks ago and Dr. Markoe went to that place and took L. J. to his home in St. Paul, where he has been improving. Last Sunday he came to the home of his brother, John Markoe and family, where he will remain until strong enough to return to his work which will probably be some little time….
1944 Mr. Greengard is the pioneer businessman of White Bear and now is on his 41st year in business here. ‘Twas June 11, 1904 that he began business here by opening a bakery. White Bear then boasted 1100 population. He was young, of stout frame and wore a mustache. He had worked in the bakery of F. R. Yerxa at Seventh and Cedar in St. Paul prior to coming to White Bear. All work was done by hand. There being no “eating house” here at that time, it was not long until he had to serve meals and that lead to establishing a café.
1969 A White Bear Lake police officer received a slight flesh wound Tuesday morning when his gun discharged as he was taking it out of his holster. Michael Wukawitz was on patrol when he spotted a man at the door of Vadnais Oil Company on Bald Eagle Ave. The man started to turn and as Wukawitz took his gun out of the holster it discharged blowing out the bottom of the holster. The incident brought patrol cars from Maplewood and sur-

Slow pitch a dwindling but still fun rite of summer BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR
Adult summer recreation softball is not what it used to be in White Bear Lake, but there are still 26 teams dueling each week at Lakewood Hills Park. The Thursday men’s league has completed its season with The Dog House/SK winning both regular season and playoffs. The Church League (Wednesday), Women’s League (Tuesday) and Coed League (Sunday) are just starting playoffs. Participation is just one-quarter of what it was 25 years ago, when over 100 teams were playing, said Jon Anderson, director of recreation sports for the school district. Anderson said he’s not sure why there’s been such a decline, but he speculated, “I think adults are coaching their kids a lot more now, rather than playing. Youth rec league numbers are way up compared to then.� Slow-pitch softball is just as much fun as ever, though, Anderson said, and he appreciates getting the word out about softball for next year. Mark Tarnowski will second that. This season was his 40th as a coach and player with the same team, St. Andrews. He is their pitcher and leads the team pregame prayer. “I look forward each May to see who made it back for another year,� Tarnowski said. “Some of the friendships formed go back many years.� While the team competes hard between the lines, Tarnowski said, the final score is never as important as fellowship, sportsmanship, and “the examples we set for young kids and families watching.� Bill Walsh, a city council member, is another Church League player, with St. Mary of the Lake. Walsh said it’s been great fun but this might be his last season. He’s been with this team for over 15 years. Only a couple of original guys are still playing. “We won the league four years in a row once,� Walsh said, “but we keep getting older and the league keeps getting younger!� Softball action also takes place at The Village Sports Bar, which has its own ballpark and operates its own league.
Two longtime recreation softball players are pictured here during recent Church League games at Lakewood Hills Park. Churning around the bases is Bill Walsh of St. Mary of the Lake. Pitching is Mark Tarnowski, who has played for St. Andrews for 40 seasons.

The fear factor and strategies to keep it in check How many times have you been tentative over a shot you are facing? Maybe you were unsure of the club selection, or the distance, or your ability to actually hit the shot you’re attempting. When you plant the seed of doubt in your brain, the fear factor sets in and we all know it’s downhill from there. Fear is actually a physiological effect that can ruin your golf game. So if everyone knows this is true, why can’t most people control it? I think it’s because

most people have no strategy for what they are going to do when faced with adversity during a round of golf. You can’t make fear go away but you can know your tendencies when fear sets in. Does your swing get quick? Do you decelerate on the downswing and bail out on the shot? Do you pull it? People do different Tee things but we all tend to do the same thing over and over. So you need to Time figure out what you do when you are bit with, what I call the “fear bug�. Betsy Larey The first thing that happens most often is muscle tension, which can manifest itself in many different ways. Your swing can get quick, you can lose your balance, not get your weight transferred and hosts of other problems. This is because muscle tension works its way into your hands first. The other common problem associated with muscle tension is blocking the ball to the right. The tighter you hang on to the club, the harder it is to release the club head though impact. The second place tension appears in your body is your jaw. That’s my spot, so I started putting a tee between my teeth when I realize tension is starting to creep in. It works for me. In the short game, tension will kill those little ‘touch shots’ around the green. If you decelerate when hitting a wedge, you can hit it fat, blade it across the green or top it and watch it go about 3 feet. Here are a few suggestions you can try when the fear factor sets in. When faced with a difficult shot, make sure you take a big breath and exhale slowly right before you make the shot. Jason Day does this with his eyes closed from behind the ball. I suggest doing it right before you start your backswing. This takes all of the tension out of your muscles and allows you to hold the club with your perfect grip pressure. Trust me, this works. One of the best tips I’ve used with clients is to put together the words “smooth swing� (some like saying one-two) as you’re swinging the club. Those
two words put together are the perfect tempo for the golf swing. The other thing that’s accomplished when you say this is it forces you to have a transition at the top. There has to be a transition from the backswing to the forward swing. If there isn’t, the sequential order falls apart and the result is usually pretty ugly. And then there’s the most basic concept of all; keep your eye on the ball. In fact, I would keep your eye on a specific spot on the lower half of the ball, where the club face will make contact. Once your left brain takes over with mechanical swing thoughts, it’s so easy to forget what you are trying to do here — hit the ball. The best way to conquer fear is to not let it have the opportunity to rent space in your brain. The easiest way I know of is to have a perfect pre-shot routine. I have written about this before. You are so busy going through the process, you don’t have time to let it seep in. So if you know your tendency is to tighten your grip, make sure you build the deep breathe concept into your pre-shot routine. If you know your tendency is to decelerate on your short game shots, have your one swing thought be to accelerate through the shot. Everyone acts just a little bit different when the fear factor sets in. The next time you’re playing an important match, make a mental note (better yet, a written one that you can catalog) of what happens when you are faced with adversity. I think you’ll find that you do the same things again and again. Knowing what your tendencies are and having strategies in place to deal with them will help you gain confidence and become a better golfer.

Five boats from White Bear Yacht Club (WBYC) competed in the 79th annual Inland Lakes Yachting Association X-Class Championships, the premier youth sailing event in the state, last week at Minnetonka Yacht Club. Owen Harrod, 16, led the WBYC group, placing seventh among 60 boats in the Senior Fleet (age 14-15-16). With Josie Guidinger as his crew, Harrod fi nished 12th, 6th, 15th and 10th in races Wednesday through Friday. “I wanted to get top five, but seventh was still a good finish for me since there were more boats this year in senior fleet,” reflected Harrod, who placed eighth of 45 last year. “Owen sailed fast, he concentrated, and he stuck to his procedure,” said Kate Cox, the
WBYC coach about the club’s top young sailor. Patrick Levins, 14, placed a strong 16th in his fi rst Senior Fleet competition. His crew was Robbie Dresen. “Patrick has been sailing every day this summer in all types of boats. He has really improved,” Cox said. Hank Seum placed 33rd and Kennedy Kruse 59th in the Senior Fleet, while Landon Kruse placed 34th of 54 boats in the Junior Fleet, which is age 13 and below. X-Boat is a 16-foot, pointed bow, center-board boat, designed for beginning sailors and racers. The champions were Ellie Harned of Pine Lake, Wisconsin, in the Senior Fleet, and Jack Steiner, also of Pine Lake, in the Junior Fleet. The regatta was supposed to conclude Saturday but that day’s races were canceled due to no wind.
Clare Kazmierczak is accustomed to high finishes in road races of all distances. But finishing fi rst in a group of several hundred runners recently was pretty special. The 42-year-old White Bear Lake teacher was the women’s champion in the 48th annual Park Point Five-Miler in Duluth on July 18. Her time was 34 minutes and four seconds on a flat course in 87-degree heat. “I don’t remember the last time I won a race. I wasn’t expecting this,” she said. “I was thinking maybe top five or top 10, so to win was really a surprise.” The runners endured heat unusual for Duluth. Kazmierczak said her main strategy was running through as many sprinklers as she could. She finished 37 seconds ahead of the female runner-up in a total field of 626 runners. The men’s winner was Nick Nygaard of St. Michael in 26:27. It was Kazmierczak’s fi rst time running this five-miler, which is hosted by the Grandma’s Marathon organization. She has previously run their other races — the marathon (“at least a halfdozen times”), the Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon, and the William Irvin 5K. Two career highlights came in 2011, when she placed seventh the Bjorklund half-marathon with 1:21:37 and notched her personal-best marathon of 2:41 in Phoenix. Last September,

she placed 31st of 630 women in the Jeff Winter Memorial City of Lakes Half Marathon in Minneapolis. Kazmierczak was a cross country and track athlete at Chisago Lakes High School and North Dakota State University. “I’ve been running for 27 years. I started running road races at age 15,” said Kazmierczak, a mother of three who teaches English as a Second Language.
Area water skiers compete in regionals Several area skiers competed in the 12-state Midwest Regional Water Ski Championships in Maize, Kansas July 25-28, 2019. Hailey Wolgamott, 12, of Mahtomedi, placed 6th in the Girls 2 (ages 10-12) slalom event with two buoys at 30 mph, 22 off. Steve Wolgamot, 71, of Mahtomedi, won 1st in Men 8 (70-74) slalom with two buoys at 28 mph, 28 off. Evelyn Duvall, 60, of White Bear Township, was 1st in Women 6 (60-64) slalom with three buoys at 32 mph, 32 off, and 2nd in tricks with 990 pts. Other area competitors included: George Lindy, 68, of Lino Lakes, 4th in Men 7 (65-69) slalom; Joe Bester, 63, of Shoreview, 3rd in Men 6 (60-64) slalom; and Mary Parcheta, 80, of Stillwater, tied for 1st in Women 10 (8084) slalom.

‘Great area for electric bikes’ BY JARED MARTINSON NEWS INTERN
The bike trail map hanging on the wall in Mike Herman's store boasts a variety of colors highlighting the scenic routes in and around Stillwater. Just below the map, a bright orange couch welcomes customers for a breather before or after their electric bike experience. “Most of the time, you aren't sweaty or out of breath after a ride,� Herman said. “If you use the accelerator right, the bike does a lot for you.� Herman and his wife, Faith, fi rst tried electric bikes on their honeymoon in California years ago. Not only were the bikes easy to control, they required very little effort to go uphill, which was a big part of why Faith enjoyed it. The Hermans moved to Stillwater five years ago and immediately loved the area, but wanted to fi nd a way to use their bikes more efficiently. “We live up the hill here (in downtown Stillwater), so going down on our normal bikes is fi ne, but I'd have to walk my bike up the hill to get back,� Faith said. Mike also runs a construction business and Faith was a hairdresser. The idea to open a bike rental store was a venture outside anything they had ever done before. Located at 224 Chestnut St. just off Hwy. 95, Mike's Electric Bikes opened in May. Most customers are group outings of four or more people, casual bikers who are looking for an easy way to travel around the historic trails and hills of Stillwater. “Some of the biking purists aren't huge fans of electric, you know,� Mike said. “But we've gotten good reviews.� Their website, mikeselectricbikes.com, displays rental prices, biking rules and available models to try out. The bikes themselves, which are $45 for a twohour rental with increasing rates for more hours, have seven gears and five power settings to toggle between, depending on the incline of the trail. Herman walks through the features and safety of the bike before each customer begins the ride. He recommends taking the Brown's Creek State Trail six miles up to Duluth Junction, and then over to the St. Croix crossing bridge and back to the shop. On average, that ride takes an hour and a half and covers about 25 miles. By the end of the journey, Herman hopes that his efficient bikes have done their duty of showing off the Stillwater scenery without exhausting the people riding them. “We're trying to get the name out there. This is a great area for electric bikes.�

Mahtomedi’s Hjelle racking up strikeouts, promotion in Giants chain BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR
Sean Hjelle, the towering Mahtomedi graduate pitching in the San Francisco Giants chain, has been impressive in his first full pro season. The 22-year-old starter is currently ranked the No. 6 prospect in the Giants organization by mlb.com. He was promoted from the Giants’ low Class A team in Augusta, Georgia, to high Class A in San Jose, California, in early June. At Augusta, Hjelle posted a 2.66 ERA in 40 2/3 innings with 44 strikeouts against just nine walks, prompting the call-up to San Jose. His won-lost record was 1-2. At San Jose, his ERA is 2.54 in 67 1/3 innings, with 64 strikeouts against 17 walks. In his home debut for San Jose on June 6, he threw six innings, allowing one run, in a
4-2 win over Modesto. Last Wednesday, Hjelle fired six shutout innings in a 4-0 win over Visalia. His record is 4-5. Hjelle, who at 6-foot-11 SAN JOSE GIANTS | SUBMITTED would be Sean Hjelle is the tallest pitching for the San player Jose Giants after in major moving up from league Augusta (GA) in history if he early June. gets there, was drafted by the Giants in the second round in 2018 after three strong seasons with the University of Kentucky.

sophomore season with Kentucky. In the rookie league short season last year with Salem-Keizer, Oregon, he struggled at times with a 5.06 ERA in 21 1/3 innings. However, his strikeout/walk ratio of 22/4 was strong from the start. FanGraphs, a baseball statistics and analysis website, praised Hjelle for his “graceful and fluid� motion, his consistency in repeating his delivery, and his surprising agility (considering his size) on fielding bunts and covering first base. FanGraphs also noted that Hjelle’s fast ball is not overpowering (low-90s) but is tougher to hit because of the unusually steep angle.
