Two firefighters injured
in Lake apartment fire
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
Three fire departments
fought a blaze for nearly
nine hours last Saturday
that erupted in a fourapartment complex at
Circle Court off Lake Station Avenue just south of
Maple Grove Road.
No residents were
injured in the fire, but two
firefighters were injured
and sent to MidMichigan
Medical Center Clare, Garfield Township Fire Chief
Kevin Tubbs reported.
“One had heat exhaustion,
he was taken to Clare by
Mobile Medical Response
Ambulance Service. The
other firefighter strained
his back and drove himself
to the hospital.”
One of the apartment
tenants called in the fire
around 3:30 p.m.
Tubbs said the apartment complex was a total
loss. “Windy conditions
and high temperatures
made fighting the fire difficult for us,” he said. “It
was around 90 degrees.”
Three other departments, Lincoln Township,
Nottawa-Sherman and
Evart were on the scene to
assist the Garfield firefighters, Tubbs said.
“The Red Cross also
have stepped in to assist
the tenants,” he added,
“and the Garfield Township Auxiliary provided
us with food and refreshments.”
BOC tells County
no more hiring
By Rosemary Horvath
Correspondent
Clare County imposed
an immediate hiring
ban Wednesday notifying all departments not to
hire full-time, part-time or
temporary employees until
further notice.
County Administrator Tracy Byard emailed
the edict to department
heads before the county
commission meeting
ended Wednesday.
The decision wasn’t
easily made. Commissioner Karen Lipovsky’s
original motion seconded
by Commissioner Samantha Pitchford only
listed full-time employees.
Commissioners Jim Gelios
and Don David voted no
because they wanted more.
Commissioner David
then moved with second
by Commissioner Leonard
Strouse to freeze part-time
employees as well. The
motion was amended to
include temporary employees as recommended by
Commissioner Pitchford.
Chairman Jack Kleinhardt and Commissioner
Lipovsky voted no.
Both motions contained
a provision that a department that wanted to hire or
replace an employee must
come before the board for
approval.
Freezing payroll is
viewed as the first step
in serious budget cutting.
Treasurer Jenny BeemerFritzinger submitted a
chart indicating a budget
deficit of nearly a half million at the end of this fiscal
year. The Municipal Employees Retirement System,
or MERS, the program
that handles the county’s
retirement benefit program, notified the county
its fund is only 71 percent
funded. In other words, the
fund is around $6.6 million
underfunded.
Revenue that has
bolstered the sheriff’s department and jail budgets
may be in store for a major
setback next year because
the Department of Corrections is pulling out state
inmates from county jails.
Clare County has relied on
that jail bed revenue for
years.
Commissioner Dale
Majewski noted that
pensions nationwide are
underfunded because the
rate of return on investments has been so low.
He read where pensions
are unfunded by trillions
nationwide.
Commissioner David
pointed out that unfunded pension liability
is a formula based on the
presumption all employees
will retire at the same time.
“That’s not going to happen.” He went on to suggest padding the pension
fund more to send a sign
to MERS that more money
was being put aside. It’d
show the county was making an honest effort.
Chairman Kleinhardt
doubted if that would be
enough. MERS has already
singled out eight Michigan
counties that will receive
letters from the State Treasury. State government
“can come in and order
cuts,” he said, adding that
the “county’s obligation
was growing faster that the
attempt.”
Some counties are passing bond issues to replace
MERS. Administrator
Byard noted however, a
county has to be 100 percent funded before it can
exit the program.
The county’s hiring
freeze surfaces at the
same time commissioners
are dealing with personnel
matters.
Longtime equalization director Kim Halis
who has sought multiple
raises unsuccessfully
has resigned and is now
employed as the equalization director for Gladwin
County. The change came
about in the last week.
If Clare County were
to contract services with
another county, that person
would have to be credentialed at Level 4.

Two of the tenants at the
complex had a personal
stake in fighting the fire.
Garfield Township firefighters Tommy Hawley
and Myranda Pitman lost
almost everything in their
apartment in the fire.
Hawley and Pitman,
who were working in
Grand Traverse County
when the call came in,
rushed back to help fight
the fire.

prepare you for being in
your own, looking through
your own stuff and deciding in a split second what’s
important to you; what do
you need.”
The apartment complex, owned by Gerry and
Delores Mertens, is one of
four they built to augment
their retirement. Now they
are helping the tenants find
places to stay and working
with their insurance company to recoup the loss.
They told 9 & 10 news
they are hoping to rebuild.
The cause of the fire,
how, and where it started
is still under investigation,
Chief Tubbs said.
The Garfield Township
Fire Department was also
assisted at the scene by
the Clare County Sheriff’s
Department and MMR.
Fireworks highlight
30th Summerfest
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
Renee Haley outlines a proposal to combine
veterans affairs programs of
Clare and Wexford counties.
The state has imposed
higher requirements on
assessors and equalization
directors that the number
of recruits has dwindled. The data entry clerk
and field appraiser left in
the Harrison office has
requested a salary increase
and new job title of deputy
director/mapping clerk due
to the extra responsibilities
she will fulfill.
Byard was directed to
survey companies capable
of carrying out equalization responsibilities. She
will also survey other
counties on the idea of
contracting.
A bit of good news
stemming from the meeting Wednesday seemed to
be a collaboration between
Clare County and Wexford
County. Commissioners
unanimously showed support of reappointing Renee
Haley as executive director
of veterans affairs and they
agreed to an intergovernmental agreement.
Haley will divide her
week day schedule with
Wexford’s newly created
veterans affairs office in
Cadillac. The new director,
Anthony Garcia Rubio,
will shadow Haley as she
attends meetings and she
will guide him in becoming accredited.
This way, Haley noted,
claims for veterans can
begin immediately. This
regional collaboration
is fostered by Governor
Snyder’s push to regionalize programs, Haley noted,
because “partnerships
improve services.”
Wexford will pay Clare
$20,800 as its share of
Haley’s salary. The agreement will run for two
years.
There are 3,200 known
veterans living in Clare
County and 2,900 living in
Wexford County. Commissioners agreed
this experience may open
the door to other possible
collaborations.

Bigford sentenced to life in prison, no parole
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
On Wednesday June
8, Mary Lou Bigford, 53,
of Lake was sentenced
to life in prison without
possibility of parole for
the April 15, 2015 murder
of Lawrence Howard Jr.,
36 of Fenton, who was
the father of her granddaughter.
Isabella County Judge
Paul Chamberlain also
sentenced her to a two-
year prison term for an
additional firearm charge,
with 417 days served.
Bigford was found
guilty of the charges May
17 after a week long-rial.
It was the third attempt to
try her for the murder. The
first two were declared
mistrials.
The Gilmore Township
woman was convicted of
shooting Howard in the
parking lot of Chase Run
Apartments in Mt. Pleasant when he arrived there
around noon that day to
pick up his daughter.
Howard was shot six
times in the apartment
complex parking lot.
The prosecutor charged
that Bigford was waiting
there for him with the
intention to shoot him.
Bigford reportedly
believed that Howard had
molested his three-yearold daughter. She and
the then-3-year-old girl’s
mother, Latesha Bigford,
filed sexual abuse com-
Mary Lou Bigford
plaints against Howard,
but investigations by
plans to pay for his children’s and grandchildren’s
education.

threw the gun she used in
a ditch. He had given her
the gun two years ago to
shoot animals.
The murder weapon,
reportedly a .22 or .25
handgun, has not been
found.
In just over two hours
of deliberation, the jury
found Bigford guilty on
all counts.
In a Fenton newspaper
article, Howard’s family
said they are glad that
justice is being served.

Angelee Wilkerson,
a 43-year-old Weidman
woman, is facing several felony embezzlement charges for stealing
prescription medication
after turning herself in this
week.
Wilkerson, a Pharmacy
Technician at McLaren
Hospital in Mt. Pleasant,
confessed to stealing prescription medication from
the hospital for the past
couple of years, a release
from the police said.
The theft was discovered during an audit when
a pharmacist at the hospital
noticed an inconsistency
with medication ordering
and dispensing, the release
from Public Information
Officer Jeff Browne said.
A detailed audit followed
and revealed that a hospital
employee had been embez-
zling prescription drugs for
a number of years.
The theft was reported
to police who began an
investigation May 31, and
identified Wilkerson as the
suspect.
The Isabella County
Prosecutor issued a threecount felony warrant and
Wilkerson turned herself
into the court.
Wilkerson was arraigned June 14 in Isabella
County Court on one count
of Embezzlement-Agent
or Trustee $1,000 or more
but less than $20,000;
Controlled SubstanceDelivery/Manufacture;
and Controlled SubstancePossession/Analogues.

was released, Brown

Surrey Township Clerk Glenna Bradbury explains the responsibilities of the township at the cemetery and the lack of
funds for additional grounds work to Rita Vance and her mother Joy Fuller.
Surrey Board hears cemetery complaints VBS
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
The Surrey Township Board fielded some
complaints about the
condition of the older part
of the Surrey Township
Cemetery at their meeting
Tuesday evening.
Rita Vance and her
mother Joy Fuller were at
the meeting to voice their
concerns that the older
part of the cemetery near
the front where a family
member is buried is in
poor condition. “We had
permission to plant a tree
by a grave from the board
(in 1989),” Vance said. It
was topped and then cut
down. It’s gone now.”
She said a lilac bush was
also cut down. “The older
graves in the front of the
cemetery are not being
taken care of,” they said.
They said some head-
stones were broken, there
was little grass there and
they wondered if something could be done.
Township Clerk Glenna
Bradbury responded saying
the maintenance people
were not responsible for
the headstones. Supervisor Russ Hamilton added,
“There has been some
vandalism there, but the
headstones and graves
belong to the people that
own the plots.”
He added that a lot of
trees in the cemetery have
been removed because they
were diseased and there are
still more that need to be
removed.
Bradbury added, “We
do the best we can to keep
it nice there. There’s no
money for grass seed. We
did have a group that was
interested in repairing the
headstones at one time.”
She continued, “I get
compliments all of the time
on the cemetery. I think it
looks really nice. The older
stones are very delicate
and crumble easily, but the
headstones are the responsibility of the owners.”
Township Treasurer
Esther Pitchford said the
board could try and put
more in the budget for
the cemetery for grounds
maintenance.
Evaluation of the
Landfill groundwater was
another issue that came
before the board Tuesday.
Zoning Administrator Rod
Williams, who is responsible for checking the monitoring equipment at the
landfill, asked the board
to approve a Gas Detector
Kit for $1,005.00. He also
asked the board to approve
$5,750 to have Environmental Resource Management do a groundwater
evaluation and prepare a
report for the Department
of Environmental Quality.
The board approved
both expenditures unanimously.
Other business at the
township meeting included:
*A zoning report from
Williams.
*A report from Fire
Chief Dave Williams.
*Approval for a $4,950
software update for the fire
department’s 15-year-old
outdated program.
*Approval of the
$16,908.75 purchase of
five portable radios, to
come from next years’
budget to improved communication with Central
Dispatch and Isabella
County.
*A vote to waive the
purchase of foreclosed
properties in the township.
*Approved bills payable
totaling $37,714.34.

Grant Twp. to seek 1.2 mils for roads
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
Once again, Grant
Township voters will be
asked to approve a road
millage.
After a lengthy discussion and hearing an extensive special presentation on
funding and programs from
Clare County Road Commission Board Chair Julie
Lightfoot and EngineerManager Deepak Gupta,
the Grant Township Board
voted 4-1 (with Dick Zinser voting no) to put a 1.2
mill proposal for roads on
the November ballot.
Before the vote, board
members stated their preference on three suggested
proposals: Option 1 - no
millage request, Option 2
– a proposal asking voters
for 1.2 mils for ten years,
or Option 3 - a proposal
asking for 2 mils for ten
years.
Over the ten years, Option 2, the 1.2 mill proposal, would raise enough
funds to finance $745,000
in HMA blacktop overlays,
$505,000 for gravel work,
$300,000 for truck route
enforcement and three,
rather than two dust control
applications per year.
Option 3 for 2 mils
would have included all of
the work in Option 2 and
added $485,000 for surfaced subdivision work.
The board members
were polled for their
choice.
Township Trustee
Richard Zinser immediately said no to placing
any millage request on the
ballot, adding that it isn’t
the township’s responsibility to repair the roads.
Superintendent Dan
Dysinger and Trustee
Marge Bell both opted for
the 2 mil proposal. Marge
said she would prefer the
2-mil proposal saying it
was “the better route.”
Dysinger agreed, saying
he preferred going for 2
mils but would support
either of the two millage
requests depending on
what the board wanted.
Township Treasurer
Tammy Shea said she preferred the 1.2 mil request,
which would allow the
township to fix and maintain the roads.
Township Clerk Sue
Wentworth also supported
the 1.2 mil option, saying,
“There was already a vote
that would have fixed all
the roads. It was voted no.”
In 2014 the township
voters turned down a tenyear, 3-mil request by just
seven votes.
Township resident
Merle Harmon, who was
in the audience, cautioned
the board that residents of
the subdivisions might not
support the option that left
them out. “You may lose
voters if you don’t address
all township residents.”
Shea said she supported
fixing the subdivision
roads too, saying with the
promise of funding from
the State and careful management of the township
funds, that could be accomplished. “I want this to
benefit all our residents,”
she said.
Dysinger said the
subdivision roads could be
addressed. After Option 2
was approved, he said, “I
just hope the (township)
residents support this. If
it doesn’t pass, we won’t
be doing any road projects
next year. We’ve pretty
much used our available
funds.”
He said, “While admittedly the Township Board
had initially agreed the
millage would not be a
ballot subject, being approached by a group from
the Township, not just Five
Lakes Area, required we
at least look at it. After
careful consideration and
crunching numbers we can
hope voters will see the
value of our tax dollars being spent locally.”
He added, “The Board
agreeing to a 1.2 mill question [if approved] will raise
about $115,920 in its first
year inclusive of 2016 for
10 years. However, voters
must first pass the measure
in November. 1.2 mills is
nearly 2/3rds less than the
issue defeated in November 2014. Work completed in 2013 to 2016 and
removing routes from the
original plan, plus cost savings and possibly increased
funding from CCRC, led to
the reduction.”
The township will be
spending an estimated
$512,255 repairing roads
this year with help from
the Road Commission, a
$20,000 match incentive
for one paving project and
the engineering and labor
for the projects.
The contract between
the CCRC and township,
also approved at Tuesday’s
meeting, said, “The Road
Commission will provide
engineering, prepare the
road bed for aggregate,
order the MDOT 23A
aggregate, and arrange for
trucking and then spread,
shape and compact the
Dense Graded aggregate,
also install the culverts
and do the proper drainage work. On the Chip and
Asphalt overlays, the road
commission will oversee
the placement and keep
track of the quantities.”
Roadwork scheduled
for this year includes:
$129,787 for gravel roads
including Leghorn, Elm,
Bass Lake, Rock and
Washington and $354,081
for Asphalt on Kapplinger,
Beaverton, Grant and Harrison. “Grant Road will get
an overlay all the way to
Ann Arbor Trail,” Dysinger noted. The total estimated for the projects was
$483,868 with $48,387 set
aside for possible overruns.
This is much more than
the township had originally
planned.
The scope of the projects is Blacktops (HMA’s)
on Grant Road from Beaverton to Ann Arbor Trail
and Beaverton Rd. / Kapplinger Rd. from Pebble
Creek to Grant Rd.
Chip Seals will be done
on Harrison Ave. from Surrey to Pike Ave.
Gravel Projects include:
*Rock Rd. from Bass
Lake Ave. to Harrison Ave.
*Bass Lake Ave. from
Rock to Elm Rd.
*Elm Rd. from Bass
Lake to Harrison Ave.
*Leghorn Rd. from Elm
Rd. to Surrey Rd. and
*Washington Rd. from
Beaver Rd. to Harrison
Ave.
Dysinger said, “Grant

Farwell couple turn to MBF
Willow is a beautiful
7-year-old American Bulldog, the beloved pet of Tiffanie and Justin Baker in
Farwell. Willow has mast
cell cancer and requires
chemotherapy. The cost of
treatment is out of reach
for the Bakers, but they are
not willing to give up.
The Bakers discovered
Magic Bullet Fund (MBF),
applied for financial assistance, and the Fund agreed
to help. Magic Bullet Fund
helps when a dog would
not be able to receive
treatment without financial
assistance.
The fund was founded
by medical animal writer
Laurie Kaplan, in honor of
her own cancer survivor,
Bullet, in conjunction with
the release of her book,
“Help Your Dog Fight
Cancer.” This book has
given tens of thousands
of dog owners the knowledge, confidence and optimism needed to see their
beloved canines through
cancer treatment. Thanks
to the assistance of Magic
Bullet Fund, Willow will
have a chance to survive
cancer.
A diagnosis of canine
miles of Surrey Rd. will be
chip sealed this summer,
this is funded by federal
dollars flow through the
Clare County Road Commission. This chip and
seal will help to preserve
the surface from further
degradation. Surrey Rd. is
very heavily traveled.”
He continued, “All of
these projects combined
wipe out a significant
portion of needed road
improvements within
Grant Township. There is
certainly more needed. Weather permitting the
HMA work will be completed before the end of
June and Chip Seals should
be done before August
15. By early fall gravel
work should be completed
depending on progress.”
Once the roads are repaired, the township board
wants to keep them from
being damaged by truck
traffic as has happened in
the past.
Local roads are under
the township’s jurisdiction
and the board unanimously
approved developing an
ordinance that will place
weight limits on some.
Dysinger said, ““The
tentative roadways under
consideration for restricted
trucks through a “truck
route ordinance” is: Grant
Road from Dover to Ann
Arbor Trail; Harrison Ave
from Kapplinger to M-115
(old 10); Harrison Ave.
from Surrey to Pike Rd;
Surrey Rd. from Old 27 to
Cornwell; Dover Rd. from
Old 27 to Eberhart Rd. and
Eberhart Road.”
He added, “There are
plans to introduce the
first draft copy in July’s
regular meeting; adoption
in August with an effective
date in September. This
may be pushed back a
month but hopefully we
can use this schedule.”
Other business at the
township meeting Tuesday
included:
*Approval of the first
right of refusal for PA 123
properties.
*Approval for a summer
newsletter.
*A County Commission report from Leonard
Strouse.
*A presentation by Clare
County Sheriff Candidate
Barney Ledford.
*Approval of the
payment of bills totaling
$16,859.75.

Tiffany and Justin Baker raise funds for “Willow’s cancer
treatments through MBF”
cancer is not necessarily a
death sentence. Veterinary
oncology has made tremendous advances in the
past decade and there are
treatment options available
to those who want to fight
their pet’s cancer.
Fund founder Kaplan says, “Cancer is as
unpredictable in pets as it
is in humans. We do not
expect miracles for all of
the dogs, but we celebrate
the ones we get. The real
miracle for these families
is that they can have an extended goodbye, time for
special moments that will
become lasting memories,
and the very important
ability to say, ‘I fought for
my dog’s life!’’”
The fund helps families
across the U.S. If Willow’s
campaign goal has been
met, you’ll find her on the
Dogs Funded page, but
you can still donate to the
General Fund to help other
dogs receive treatment and

Antique saw mill star of M-61 tractor show
By Rosemary Horvath
Correspondent
Four members of the
Twenty Lakes Antique
Engine & Tractor Association huddled over
the carriage of a late 19th
century saw mill, preparing to fire it up in time
for ongoing demonstrations at the club’s annual
summer event Thursday
through Saturday.
The apparatus is a
reminder of local history when the land was
a dense forest threaded
with Indian trails. Then
lumber barons arrived
and established camps
throughout the region.
The history museum at
the Evart Public Library
displays relics and tools
of lumber camps that
show how primitive but
functional tools were in
the day.
The Empire sawmill
at the organization’s
grounds on M-61 features
a carriage that holds a
log in place pass a large
circular saw that cuts the
wood to size.
Maurice “Smitty”
Smith of Harrison said
the sawmill is from the
late 1800s and came from
the Gladwin area. It bears
the name Empire which
could also mean it had
been part of the Empire
Lumber Company in
Leelanau County back in
the 1800s. History shows
the company had been
the largest mill in the area
at the time.
Tom Hosmer of Harrison operates the carriage.
He and his dad Charles
have been club members
for 10 years or more.
They started out volunteering to help with the
mill “and we just keep
coming back,” Charlie
said.
Tom couldn’t say if he
descended from lumberjacks. “My granddad
worked in the woods so
I’m sure everyone back
in the day” were one
form of a lumberjack or
another.
Tom as with most
members of the organization own antique tractors,
and typically more than
one. They bring their
collections to the summer
show to display and demonstrate. Collectors began
to set up on Wednesday,
along with vendors and
campers who planned to
stay over this weekend.
Donna Hosner, association treasurer, was
outside the blacksmith
shop, directing new arrivals on where to park.
The event also features
plowing demonstrations,

Wildlife visitors enjoy life
on the Tobacco too
Time to pay respects,
not push agendas
My thoughts and
prayers go to the victims’
families of that horrible
tragedy in Orlando over
the weekend. I especially
hope that each and every
one of the fifty or so that
were taken to Orlando
Regional Center and other
area hospitals recover
quickly from their injuries.
That said, I’m appalled
at our politicians who are
using this tragedy as an
opportunity to push their
political agenda. Conservatives are speaking out
in an effort to label many
Moslems as purveyors
of radical Islam and are
renewing efforts to ban
Moslems from immigrating to the United States.
Liberals are demanding
stricter gun control, claiming mass shootings like
Orlando wouldn’t happen
if deranged gunmen didn’t
have access to weapons.
For me I don’t want to
listen to either argument
right now. This is a time
to pay our respects to the
forty-nine innocent men
and women who died in
that Orlando nightclub.
They went there to have a
good time, and to mingle
with friends. They certainly didn’t expect to be
targeted by an Isis-inspired
maniac.
I don’t want to listen
to the politicians arguments because there are
two more important issues
in my opinion. First, I
dread the next six months
where Clinton and Trump
will partake in the nasti-
est presidential campaign
ever known to the United
States.
I greatly wish that each
candidate could refrain
from negative rhetoric. It is
more important than ever,
that we see civility not nastiness, from our leaders. I
wish they could be positive
and lay out their positions
on how they would tackle
the various problems facing our great nation. I wish
they took a pledge to end
all personal attacks.
Whether we are a
Democrat, Republican,
Libertarian or independent,
we as a body of people
need to come together.
Whether we are straight
or gay, Moslem, Jewish or
Christian we need to embrace one another. Whether
we are black, white, yellow
or mixed it is time to stop
racial hatred and love thy
fellow man.
Secondly, we have
to realize that there is a
greater problem than gun
control or banning Moslems, and that is mental
illness. No sane person
could kill innocent people
like Omar Mateen did in
Orlando. Make no mistake
he was mentally ill. His
co-workers at the security
firm he worked for called
him bi-polar and a “nut
job.” Others ignored his
homophobic ramblings,
discounting them because
he was crazy.
The same can be said
for all the other recent
mass killers in this country.
Yes, for the most part they
utilized automatic weapons and many professed
allegiance to radical Islam,
but to a tee, they were all
mentally ill.
And you know what,
you don’t hear Clinton or
Trump, or any other high
ranking politician talk
about the sad state of affairs when it comes to taking care of the mentally ill
in this country. The number of people diagnosed
with some type of mental
illness is staggering, yet
treatment either has failed
or is non-existent. In some
cases treatment or meds
is too costly. In many
cases, persons aren’t even
diagnosed because they are
too embarrassed to see a
medical professional.
Let me reiterate. I hope,
we as a nation have learned
a couple of things from
these mass killings. I hope
we can unite as a people.
Certainly healthy debate
is productive, but we have
got to stop the personal
attacks and religious and
racial hatred. AND additionally we need to provide
help for the mentally ill in
this country. So much talk
about gun control yet so
little about mental illness.
That needs to be reversed,
in this columnist’s opinion.
Letters
Response to naysayers on bathroom
On May 12, 2016 when
The Obama Administration circumvented the rule
of law and sent directives directly to each and
every school district in
the nation, mandating that
students be allowed to “self
identify” their gender and
select which bathroom,
locker room and shower
facility they would use
in the schools, I penned a
Letter to the Editor of our
esteemed local paper. My
husband and I also attended
the Clare School Board
Meeting to discuss the issue
that following Monday.
Now that the Board has had
more than 72 hours to review the directives, we will
be attending the upcoming
meeting on June 20th.
Since the publication
of my letter, I have been
called a “Stepford Wife”
and a “hater” (among other
amusing things), and my
husband’s letters have been
called “psychotic political
rantings”. I found the
Stepford Wife comment
most amusing. I’m just old
enough to understand the
attempted metaphor, but it
is so wrong that I’m just
left shaking my head.
The sad thing is, I think
the readers completely
missed the point of the
letter and went right to the
transgender issue. I’m hoping it is not because of poor
reading comprehension
skills, rather its more due to
progressive indoctrination.
I laid out a very concise
argument about how the
Executive Branch of Federal government acted completely out of scope of their
enumerated powers, and are
now basically blackmailing
our local school districts
with the threat of withholding federal funding from
them if they do not comply
with their directive. However, no one addressed
that, they went right to the
transgenders.
Perhaps I wasn’t clear
enough about the problem
with the directive. First
off, I have no problem
with human beings who
are legitimately transgendered using the bathroom
that corresponds with their
body parts. By definition,
I mean someone who so
legitimately believes they
are actually the gender
opposite that of which they
were born, that they have
had the surgeries and the
therapies to change their reproductive organs. I’d like
to see the actual statistics of
how many of these students
we have in our school district. I’m certain in many
instances I have shared
public bathrooms with
people whom are transgendered. I’m certain it has
probably even happened in
the schools.
The key problem with
the directive is that it
allows people to “self
identify”. Essentially this
means that a boy or a girl,
can walk into the boys’ OR
girls’ locker room, shower
areas, bathrooms, etc. IN
THE SCHOOL. The types
hurling the insults at me for
my letter say “this didn’t
happen before, and it won’t
happen now, this directive
is just to prevent bullying”
frankly don’t have a crystal
ball. Can we all stipulate
that teenagers, both boys
and girls, have the opposite
sex on the brain a great
portion of their day? And
now, the federal government has basically tied the
schools hands from protecting students from one another, including transgender
students, straight students,
gay students and any other
category of student. If the
schools are to follow this
loose directive, they are
putting everyone at risk.
There really is no ifs, ands
or buts about it, anyway
you look at it. This is
probably the worst way the
government could attempt
to truly protect transgender
students. However, I don’t
believe that was the government’s intent by handing
down this directive. That is
a whole different letter.
Sincerely,
Angela Isaac

High fuel prices hurt all
Dear Editor,
I understand very much
when the price of fuel goes
up it’s a burden on the
truck drivers. Who deliver
most everything from soup
to nuts all over the U.S.A.?
But then the taxpayers feel
the strain too. The truckers get their share added
to their paychecks. Every
time fuel goes up it’s like
their getting another raise
in pay. I don’t believe it’s
fair. Instead of adding it
to their paycheck, give the
truckers a separate “Cost
of living check” when the
fuel prices rise. What ever
happened to “What goes
up must come down?” The
country is in dire straits! If
this is not possible, what’s
next? Do we eat dirt and
walk to our jobs? “Windows are made to break!”
The sun doesn’t shine here
The
anymore.
Sincerely,
Joseph C. Provo

Some days I think the
‘critters’ enjoy living out
here on the Tobacco as
much as we do.
Besides our usual
complement of wild birds,
squirrels, rabbits and
chipmunks, we have been
enjoying the company of a
couple of does with spotted
babies out here on the river
recently.
One has a single fawn
and the other mother has
twins.
As with all youngsters,
these little ones are more
concerned with running
and playing than with
being cautious. They have
been carousing all over the
yard in the past week or so.
The moms are extra
cautious though and our attempts to capture some of
those antics with a camera
usually scare them and
they immediately hustle
the young ones away.
I did get lucky Sunday though. We had just
returned from our third
weekend since Memorial
Day up at the new camper
and settled down to relax a
bit after the unpacking was
done.
Jack said, “Look at who
is running all over the
yard!”
I quietly got up and
slipped into the office
for my camera. Although
“Mama” noticed me moving, she must have thought
they were far enough away
from the house to be safe,
and allowed her young one
to continue frolicking all
around the riverbank.
Using the telephoto, I
was able to capture the
two in a couple of pictures,
including a slightly blurry
one of the little one nursing…something I have
never seen before.
We have had fawns here
before. In fact I think these
two deer have taken up
residence in our backyard.
They seem to stick around
most of the time.
One year a doe hid her
very small young one in
a particular place, our fire
pit. Not only was it full of
old ashes, it was raining
and that little one sure was
uncomfortable, and very
visible. I got some pictures
of that one too.
I sure enjoy watching
them…when they let us
that is.
Unfortunately since I
spend the majority of my
time facing this computer,
I think I probably miss
out on a lot of the activity along the river, but
late afternoons and early
mornings are dedicated to
wildlife watching when we
can.
This year we seem to
have an abundance of
“small critters.” A lot of
them are bunnies, big and
small that scrounge on the
ground under the bird feeders every day.
Then there’s the ground
squirrels and chipmunks
that come in and fill up
their cheeks until they are
nearly as wide as they are
long. They make several
trips every day and probably have “stashes” of
seeds under the deck and
under our little barn.
It’s funny, we seem
to see more deer here at
home than we do on our
weekend excursions to the
“wild” country up near
Roscommon.
There we usually see a
few turkeys, an occasional
coyote, a chipmunk or two,
but few deer and never any
fawns.
Last weekend we did
have a great view of four
large herons who landed
in the field in front of the
camper though. They stuck
around for quite a while as
we watched them “stalk”
back and forth just 50 feet
away.
We haven’t been doing
much wildlife watching up
there though as we are still
getting settled into the new
(to us anyway) Fifth Wheel
we bought last month.
Jack is in his glory. He
is a “project” man and has
lots to do up there making
our campsite perfect. Now
he is planning to build
a new deck using some
lumber from the old one,
which he has been working
to dismantle for the past
couple of weekends.
I encourage him because
once that is done, he will
put up the screens on
our awning and I can sit
outside and enjoy camping
life without the bugs!
There’s lots of those up
there.

Parents who host, lose the most
By Goldie Wood, Prevention & Outreach Manager, Ten 16 Recovery Network
The Importance of Developing
Protective Factors in the
Lives of Children
Many parent’s in todays
society worry about the
possibility of their children
using alcohol and other
drugs, especially when
their children come into
their adolescent years.
How does one protect their
child from beginning drug
or alcohol abuse? Luckily for parents, researchers have been focused on
this question for the past
twenty years, and have
been studying how drug
abuse begins and how it
progresses.
There are many factors
that can add to a person’s
risk of drug abuse. According to the National
Institute on Drug Abuse,
risk factors can increase a
person’s chance for drug
abuse, while protective
factors can reduce the risk.
However, it is important
to note that the majority
of people who are at risk
for drug abuse never start
using or become addicted
to drugs.
Risk and protective
factors exist at every level
that an individual interacts
with others and the society
around them. One way that
researchers organize these
factors is by domain. There
are six domains in which
interactions occur. Listed
below are a few examples
of risk and protective factors in each domain.
Individual domain:
Risk factors include the
perception of a child that
most of their friends use
drugs and alcohol and genetic vulnerability. Protective factors include knowledge regarding the risk
associated with substance
use and abuse, positive
relationships with adults,
and youth involvement in
alternative activities.
Peer domain:
Risk factors include
thinking drug and alcohol
use is “cool” and attachment to deviant peers.
Protective factors include
being involved in substance free activities and
friends disapproval of drug
and alcohol use.
Family domain:
Risk factors include
family members having a history of drug or
alcohol abuse, families
not spending much time
together, and lack of clear
rules and consequences.
Protective factors include
close family relationships,
consistency of parenting,
and education being valued
and encouraged by parents,
as well as parental involvement.
School:
Risk factors include a
lack of clear expectations,
students lacking a sense of
belonging at school, and
parents and community
not being actively involved
with the school. Protective factors include regular
school attendance and the
communication of high
academic and behavioral
expectations.
Community/Society: Risk factors include
alcohol and other drugs
being easily available
and a pro-use message.
Protective factors include
opportunities for community involvement and
religious composition in a
community.

Reader unfolds a Michigan CPS nightmare
Dear Editor:
My daughter moved
home with my son and I
when she learned she was
pregnant with her first
child. She moved in on
July 7, 2015. The baby
was due January 23, 2016.
We had plenty of time to
prepare for the new arrival.
Plenty of time to find a
bigger place to live and get
settled in. We moved into a bigger
place on August 17, 2015.
The father chose not to
participate, so I became her
pregnancy partner. Then on October 17,
2015 my grandson Ryker
James-LaRoy McEvers was
born by cesarean section
14 weeks early. We didn›t
know if he would make it
or if he did, what problems
he could have. All we knew
was that she and I already
loved this tiny bundle all of
one pound 2.7 ounces and
twelve inches long. She an
I were in almost a constant
state of prayer and never
ever did we lose hope. The doctors inserted a
broviac line to infuse nutrition when his umbilical
veins dried up. He was on
a ventilator from birth, and
frequently receiving blood.
It seemed he had tubes and
IVs everywhere. Ryker was
born with a host of medical
problems. Ryker was twelve days
old on October 29, 2015
when flown to a bigger
hospital for a PDA repair.
A patent ductus arteriosis
repair is a repair of a valve
near his heart. He was just over three
weeks old, he sailed
through the surgery like
a trooper. He had a chest
tube afterwards to drain
any fluid. Ryker was removed
from the ventilator on
November 24, 2015 and
moved to a CPAP machine. On December 1st, 2015
Ryker was stable enough to
be sent back to his hospital
of birth. On January 3rd,
2016 my son Tyler met his
nephew for the first time. He remained on CPAP
UNTIL December 12,
2015, next he was moved
to high flow oxygen and
then finally a home oxygen
unit. We knew he would be
coming home on various
machines, such as oxygen,
an apnea monitor, and
nebulizer treatments. He
was gonna be a lot of work,
but worth it. We love him
so much. In December we
received an unannounced
visit from a Clare County
Child Protective Services
Investigator stating she had
received a complaint from
the Social Worker at his
hospital of birth. Within the
allegations were that my
daughter has sleep apnea
and is not on meds for
bipolar-disorder. Dannielle
had never been diagnosed
with sleep apnea and she
had been symptomatic of
bipolar-disorder for two
years. The sleep study was
going to be addressed after
we got the baby home.
Why would she take meds
for bipolar-disorder when
she had been asymptomatic
for two years? That would
be like taking high blood
pressure pills when you
already have low blood
pressure or taking anti seizure meds when you don’t
have seizures. It just didn›t
make sense. She also stated Dannielle was observed in the
Neonatal Intensive Care
Unit showing sad emotions. I think this would
be expected given the fact
she was in the Neonatal
Intensive Care Unit. There
are a multitude of emotions
the parents of a micro-preemie experience for many
months and sometimes
years after their birth. The
report also said our house
was not fit for a baby. The
investigator said our home
was immaculate.
On January 13, 2015 an
RN in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit stated she
had read the report from
the Protective Services
Investigator and it was just
“glowing”. The investigator
called my daughter on this
same day while we were
at the hospital and told
her she and I were being
required to do psychological evaluations. I happen to
know those can only be ordered by a judge and there
was no case. On this same
day, I sent the investigator
a text message.
The Child Protective
Services Investigators boss
offered us a gas card at
the very end of January to

months at during Ryker›s
visits. We couldn’t be happier to finally be taking him
home. Dannielle and I agreed
to sleep in shifts, so that we
could both get sleep and
watch the baby. On February 7, 2016,
just eighteen hours after
he was discharged, Ryker
had another life threatening
event of apnea. The stimulation we were
taught was not working.
He began to turn blue.
Dannielle called 911. He
was rushed to the ER.
Soon he was is in route
flying to Ann Arbor, U of
M Hospital. Dannielle and
I went home so that she
could pack to go to U of M,
shower, and leave. A Washtenaw County
Child Protective Services Investigator came to
investigate the 911 call.
She states Dannielle did
everything properly. Dannielle and I both
came home on February
10, 2016 from U of M to
pack some more things
and we were going to head
back in the morning. The morning of February 11, 2016 while Ryker
was still in the hospital,
Danielle had the Child
Protective Services
Investigator and a Sheriff
deputy knocking on the
door serving her a petition. The petition stated a
judge had removed Ryker
from Dannielle›s care and
custody and there was to be
a hearing the next morning. Ryker is now in Foster
Care and reunification is
the plan. Dannielle has
successfully completed all
services except 7 therapy
sessions. The next hearing is June 29, 2016 in
Clare County Family
Court at 9:00 A.M.
It is in the courtroom of

go see Ryker. We went to
pick it up at DHHS and
Investigator invited us into
a room, proceeded to speak
to us rudely, and gave us
the gas card. Dannielle nor I heard
from the investigator again
neither by phone, email,
text, or in person. Ryker had frequent
episodes of bradycardia
(low heart rate) and apnea
(he often quit breathing).
The nurse taught us how to
stimulate Ryker to breathe
if he happened to stop
breathing at home. We
were also taught that if that
stimulation didn’t work, to
call 911 immediately.
On January 29, we were
finally told Ryker was
being discharged home on
February 2, 2016. We were
so happy and so prepared.
Baby items that were in
place all throughout the
house finally we’re going
to be in use. We were all
glowing with excitement.
The plan was to go to
the hospital in February
1st and spend the night
with him in a hospital room
and he would go home the
next day. February 1, 2016 finally
came. We were ready! During that evening he had an
awful event at the hospital.
He quit breathing 3 times
for over 30 seconds within
a half hour period. They
had to stop his feedings,
put his IV back in, put him
back on CPAP, and almost
had to put him back on the
vent. He was also moved
back to an incubator. They
want to keep him for a few
more days. It was scary. He
will be home. It was just
heartbreaking that it was
going to take more time. Over the next few days,
they were able to wean
him back down to where
he was before that apparent life threatening event
and informed us he would
be discharged on February
6th, 2016. We proudly left the hospital we had spent so many

fered the trauma of rape.
Can you imagine having
been victimized in such a
terrible fashion and then,
the government tells you
that you have to share the
ladies room or women’s
shower with people who
are biologically and
anatomically males? Talk
about causing or amplifying Post Traumatic Stress
Disorder. But apparently
the liberals are far more
concerned with accommodating the desires of a tiny
handful of gender-confused
people than they are about
protecting women and girls
from being traumatized.
In my opinion, if
someone has had surgery
to alter their sex organs,
they should certainly be
allowed to use the facilities that best correspond
with their body. However, I
would not care to have my
daughter taking a shower
after gym class with a student who is anatomically
a male. One of the biggest
problesm with the proposals put forward by the
Obama administration’s
Departments of Education
and Justice as well as the
Michigan Department of
Education, is that anyone
could use, not just rest
rooms, but locker rooms,
showers, etc.…of the opposite sex based simply by
declaring that he “identifies” as that sex on any
particular day. This would
allow students who have
all male parts, for example,
to use the girls’ locker
rooms, showers and rest
rooms. If you don’t think
that some teenaged boys
would use this to their advantage, you are extremely
naïve.
To the letter writer who
last week said these things
are fiction, here are a few
examples I could cite
involving men in women’s
facilities doing inappropriate things:
Very recently in Oregon,
a woman was groped in a
water park women’s room
by a man.
The University of
Toronto had to shut down
coed bathrooms in dorms
due to prying eyes of some
male students.
In Seattle, a man used
a women’s dressing room
at a public pool to undress,
citing the new law allowing him to do so and
shocking a poor woman
who walked in on him.
Another woman was
shocked by a man using
a women’s dressing room
in Dallas, saying he was
“representing himself as a
woman today”.
The above are not
fictional; they are very real
events.
Some other recent developments:
In Alaska, a boy took
all-state honors at the girls
state track championships,
because he “identifies” as
a female. This could spell
the end for women’s/girls
sports.
In some parts of the
country, including NYC
and Oregon, one can be
fined or sued for calling
someone by a pronoun
they don’t care for, even
if it matches that person’s
biology.
Some school systems
have offered students suffering gender dysphoria
(identifying as the opposite
sex) separate changing
facilities but the Obama
Administration is saying
that isn’t enough…they
MUST be allowed to share
all facilities with those of
the opposite sex if that is
how they see themselves.
Enough is enough.
We can make reasonable
accommodations such as
some single stall unisex
bathrooms in schools or
other public places, but
without inconveniencing
and terrorizing the rest of
us. It’s time for some common sense!

Reflections
By Roger Campbell Ministries
My three Fathers
Many mornings find
me giving thanks that my
parents loved each other
and loved me. The most
valuable gift a father can
give to his children is a daily
demonstration that he loves
their mother.
I’m the son of a farmer,
horse-trader, who taught me
to rise early, work hard and
quit late. Solomon’s words
could have come from my
father’s lips: “Love not
sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes (which
meant get up at 6:00 am),
and thou shalt be filled with
bread” (Proverbs 20:13), or,
in my case at that time, probably pancakes.
My father was an encourager and confidence builder.
I still remember some of his
friends telling him he would
spoil me if he didn’t stop
praising my work, but he
knew the more he praised
the harder I would work so
ignored their warnings. I
can’t remember one putdown coming from my father. I’m sure his confidence
was sometimes better than
my performance, but knowing he believed in me made
a difference and I’m grateful
for the positive influence he
had on my life.
Getting to know my heav-
enly Father was the result of
the coming together of many
experiences and influences.
Sometimes, in memory, I
scan the crowd of those who
had a part in modeling their
Lord before me, convincing me of His love. The
strong faith and faithfulness
of my mother was vital to
establishing this relationship, as was the earnest work
of Sunday School teachers, Vacation Bible School
workers, believing friends,
faithful pastors and visiting
evangelists.
The crucial connection
to my heavenly Father came
near the close of a Sunday
night service. Pastor Leon
Wood finished his sermon by
explaining that knowing God
was a matter of the heart
responding to His love in
personal faith.
“That’s what I want,” I
said silently. And though no
one in the church knew that
anything unusual had taken
place, I knew I had gained
another father, an eternal
one who would never let me
down nor leave me alone.
Years later, a pretty young
woman walked into my
life and ultimately down a
church aisle to be my bride
Area bridge repairs
to begin June 20
Bridgework around Clare
and Farwell is estimated to
begin Monday.
Watch for lane closures
and traffic shifts on US-10,
M-115 and US-127 beginning Monday when repair
work begins on the US-10
bridge over M-115 and the
westbound US-10 bridge
over US-127.
The Michigan Department of transportation
(MDOT) will invest $2.1
million in repairs on the two
bridges.
While work is ongoing,
traffic on US-10, US-127,
and M-115 will be maintained using single lane
closures and traffic shifts.
The southbound M-115
ramp to eastbound US-10
will be closed and traffic
will be directed to take the
northbound M-115 ramp to
eastbound US-10.
Work on the two bridges
is expected to be complete in
November.
and give me another father.
Pastor Martin Blok, her
father, was the pastor of the
church where I served as the
minister of youth and music.
Pastor Blok was more
than my father-in-law; he
was my mentor, my friend
and teacher. One Sunday
morning, he announced there
would be a special speaker
the following Sunday.
“Who’s the special
speaker?” I asked later.
“You are,” he replied,
taking me by surprise and
launching me on a career
that continued to be more
exciting every year.
I’ve been blessed by
two fathers who placed
confidence in me and One
in whom I’ve learned I can
place full confidence. How
fortunate I am!
Expecting the best from
our children helps bring out
the full potential of their
lives. Expecting the best
from our heavenly Father
demonstrates we believe
He’s good all the time. And
He is!

We’ve all heard the
sayings “They don’t make
them like they used to” or
“We’re in a throwaway
society”, both comments
are correct. Years ago
things did last, in most
cases longer than the
person using it. Back in
the day you could fix
just about anything or at
least jury rig it to get the
job done. Thanks to the
Twenty Lakes Antique
Engine and Tractor
Association Inc. you can
see engines, tractors, tools
and equipment working as
well as they did when they
came off the assembly line
almost 100 years ago. On
June 16, 17 & 18, Engine
and Tractor enthusiasts young and old can see

of GOTR is to inspire girls
to live joyful, healthy,
confident lifestyles using
a fun, experience-based
curriculum which creatively
integrates running.
“We’ve seen a need for
growth of our staff to best
serve the Central Michigan
area,” noted GOTR-CM
Executive Director, Samantha Jones. “Megan exhibits
great passion and commitment to our programs and
we are thrilled to have her
on our team!”
Fulton recently graduated from Central Michigan
University with Bachelors
of Science in Community
Health Education. Prior to
her hire, she completed a
full-time internship over
fifteen weeks with GOTRCM.
“I am very excited to
have this opportunity to
work for the Central Michigan council. I’m looking
forward to growing with the
council and working in such
an amazing community,”
Fulton stated.

Cops & Doughnuts of

Scammer fools Mount
Pleasant Speedway
A scam affecting cashiers statewide hit locally.
A quick change artist
was successful at a Speedway on Pickard Road in
Mount Pleasant.
Quick change artists
try to confuse cashiers by
paying for inexpensive
items using large bills,
then aggressively throw
out small bills, taking all
of their own bills plus
their change from the
cashier.
Police say the cash
drawer at Speedway came
up about $20 short as a
result.
A couple hours later
the same thing happened
in Big Rapids, and now
police are working to put a
stop to this.
“I would encourage
everybody if they are a
cashier to move the money
back to the till, move it
and then make the change
from there and then hand
the change out. If somebody tries to confuse you,
slow down, take your
time. And if they ever
want to complain about it,
they can always call us,”
says Jeff Browne, public
information officer.

“As their long and productive lives became more
difficult in later years, their
appreciation for those in
the medical profession
became the focal point of
their legacy of giving. It
was their sincere desire
to recognize the contributions of all caregivers and
to help those who have the
passion to make caring for
others their life’s work.”

While officials with
the Clare-Gladwin Career
& Technical Education
program work to determine how to maximize the
opportunities for students
gained with the passage of
its millage request in May,
there’s also a new variable: Enrollment is way,
way up.
While the numbers are
likely to fluctuate somewhat between now and the
start of the school year,
enrollment in CTE classes
has increased by more
than 100 students – almost
30 percent. According to
Clare-Gladwin Regional
Education Service District
Superintendent Sheryl Presler, it’s a great problem
to have.
“We were definitely
hoping for an increase in
enrollment, but I’m not
sure anybody anticipated
a jump like this – not
that we’re complaining,”
Presler said. “The passage
of the millage meant we
could follow through on
our plans to offer Welding
and Business Management immediately, and that
accounts for some of the
enrollment increase – as
we mentioned repeatedly
during the information
campaign, those were highdemand classes.”
Voters approved the
1-mill, ten-year millage
to be used solely for CTE
programming on May 3.
The jump in enrollment
comes despite Coleman’s
departure as a participating district. Next fall, that
district will participate in
CTE programs in Midland
County, driving down the
number of Coleman students at Clare-Gladwin’s
CTE program from 21 to
two. On the other hand,
Farwell’s student participation in CTE is soaring this
fall, rising from 35 to 95.

Lady Eagles ousted by regional semis
Golf Tips
By Ben Murphy
Sports Writer
By Thom Slusher
Clare County’s PGA Pro
How Do I
Get 10 More
Yards?
Nothing gets golfers
more excited than hitting a
drive that goes farther than
their typical. Gaining extra
yards can be elusive but
here are a few tips to help
you in your search.
Solid contact is one of
the main determinants in
the distance you hit your
shots. I would start here in
looking for extra distance.
Shots off the toe or heel
will not go as far and more
than likely be crooked
too. Work on your overall
swing to get better contact.
Players improving their
swings and solidness of
contact hit the ball farther
without even trying. If you
are not sure where the ball
is hitting on the club try
putting some masking tape
on the face before hitting
shots. The tape will tell you
where the ball is impacting
the club.
Work on speed after
solid contact is achieved.
One drill I like to have
students perform is to grip
the club at the opposite
end (club head end). I have
them take swings listening
to the swoosh sound the
grip end makes when they
swing. The louder they can
make the sound; the faster
the club is moving. It is not
about how hard but about
how fast. Players can increase their club head speed
and their distance by using
this drill on a regular basis.
The Farwell softball
team had its bats fall
quiet in its division three
regional game with Shepherd on Saturday, as the
Lady Eagles fell to the
Lady Blue Jays 4-0 in the
regional semi-final game.
Shepherd was the eventual regional champion
as it topped Reese in the
regional final, 6-5.
Farwell starting pitcher
Grace Saupe did her part
to keep her team in the
game, as she kept Shepherd scoreless through
five innings.
In the top of the
sixth though, Shepherd
slammed a pair of doubles
and were also aided by a
Farwell fielding error to
take a 2-0 lead.
Then, in the top of the
seventh, the Blue Jays
added two more runs,
as their lead-off batter
walked, then they added
a double and a single to
push their margin to 4-0.
Though the Eagles
were unable to score a
run, they had a few good
opportunities, as they got
their lead-off batter on
base each of the first three
innings, and four times in
all in the game.
In the bottom of the
first, Alysha Luster led
off and reached base by
getting hit by a pitch,
Kelsey Seiter led off the
bottom of the second and
reached on an error and
in the third, Jade Wilson reached on an error.
Wilson reached second
base on a walk to Luster
with one out, but back-to-
back strike outs ended the
Farwell scoring threat.
Brittany Cogswell led
off the bottom of the sixth
with a double, but she
was stranded there as the
next three batters were
retired.
Cogswell’s double was
the only hit of the game
