Hampton Ward I
council member
BY NICK PEDLEY
A new member will be appointed
to the Hampton City Council within
the next two months, but just who
that new member will be is still up
in the air.
Ward I Council
Member
Valerie Haugebak submitted
her resignation
recently after
taking a job
that conÁicts
with meetings
and
workshops.
The
Haugebak
council agreed
to move forward with the appointment process
at its workshop Monday to Àll the
void left by Haugebak, whose resignation takes effect July 11.
There are currently 14 months
left on Haugebak·s term. Ward I
residents interested in the position
should contact City Hall for more
information.
“We·re trying to get everybody·s
opinion. We want to open it up to the
public and give people a chance,”
said Mayor Brook Boehmler.
The council had two options to
Àll the vacancy – appoint a new
member to the council or call a special election. The cost of a special
election runs around $1,100, so the
group felt appointing was the most
cost-effective way to go.
Nearly every yard in Geneva had felled trees and broken branches last Tuesday morning. The roar of chainsaws was all that could be heard as
residents cleared their lawns after June 16 storms. NICK PEDLEY/HAMPTON CHRONICLE

FRANKLIN COUNTY CLEANS UP
AFTER LAST WEEK’S STORMS
BY NICK PEDLEY
Franklin County was declared a disaster
area last week by Gov. Terry Branstad after powerful thunderstorms and heavy rains
Áooded rivers, damaged buildings and demolished trees throughout the area.
Local ofÀcials have pegged damage estimates to private property and county-owned
land at around $2 million in Franklin County.
Numerous outbuildings and homes were hit
by streamlined winds on June 16, while secondary roads and other infrastructure were
affected by week-long torrential rainstorms.
Around 10 inches of precipation fell on the
county as residents and maintenance workers
struggled to keep up.
“All together, I think [damage] is probably around $2 million or more,” Emergency
Management Coordinator Thomas Craighton
said on June 20. “You see some of the sheds
that got hit, some of those alone cost $80,000
to put up.”
Craighton will assess damage to county-owned property today (Wednesday)
with ofÀcials from the Iowa Department of
Homeland Security. The evaluation will not
include private property.
The National Weather Service (NWS) is
still investigating the June 16 storm to determine if a tornado touched down in Franklin County. Craighton took damage photos
and submitted a 23-page report to the Des
Moines-based agency, but he was unsure
when he·d hear back. The NWS has been
swamped by a rash of bad weather across the
state recently.

BY NICK PEDLEY
The hunt for a missing Hampton
woman with special needs ended on
a happy note Saturday night following a Àve-hour search.
Efforts to locate the 26-year-old
female got underway shortly after
police received a call about a missing person at 3:21 p.m., on Saturday. Hampton Police Chief Bob
Schaefer said the woman wandered
away from her family·s property
without their knowledge.
“They were outside and when
they came back in, she was gone,”
he said.
Multiple law enforcement agencies and Àre departments were
called in to assist with the hunt after
initial search efforts proved fruitless.
“Once we realized the timeframe
had gotten a bit longer than what we
could handle, we called emergency
management to bring in more help
with Àre departments,” Schaefer
said.
Every Àre department in the county assisted the Hampton Police Department and the Franklin County
Sheriff·s OfÀce with the search, according to Emergency Management
Coordinator Thomas Craighton.
The Iowa State Patrol also provided
a plane to scan the area surrounding
Hampton.
The search came to an end at 8:42
p.m., when ÀreÀghters found the
missing woman in good condition
at the Hampton Cemetery. Schaefer
was unsure which department made
the discovery, but was just happy
everything turned out OK.
“Yes, deÀnitely good the way this
ended,” he said.

SECTION A • HAMPTON CHRONICLE
STORMS
“It could be a month or even two before we Ànd out,”
Craighton said Monday morning.
• June 16 storm damages buildings, trees, powerlines
Farms and cities throughout Franklin County sustained heavy damage during a barrage of severe weather
that sent many local residents to their basements June
16.
Warning sirens in Hampton sounded as the severe
thunderstorm approached sometime after 7 p.m. High
winds, pounding rain and hail followed shortly thereafter as the storm progressed eastward. Streamline winds
caused the majority of local damage that day, but relentless precipitation led to Áash Áoods and washed out
roads throughout the week.
“Right now, they·re just saying streamlined winds.
But some of the damage is bad enough to where I can·t
rule out a tornado,” Craighton said last week.
Farmsteads in the rural Alexander area were blasted
during the storm. One house·s roof was torn off, another
barn was destroyed and a chicken conÀnement had it·s
roof damaged. One hog farmer lost 40 head when the
building was hit. Debris was scattered into neighboring
Àelds for 2.5 miles.
Fran Buckel, manager at Franklin REC, reported between 550-600 customers were left without power fol-
lowing the storms. The majority of outages were reported east and south of Alexander, and most customers had
power restored within 24 hours.
Damage was by no means isolated to the Alexander
region.
Geneva was one of the hardest hit towns in Franklin
County – nearly every yard in city limits was littered
with uprooted trees and branches, some of which landed
on garages or other buildings. Two trees at the ball diamond were blown over during the storm and completely
demolished a bench and fence.
Power line technicians and tree trimmers were busy
on nearly every street in town working to cut dangling
limbs and Àx damaged lines June 17. Around 200 MidAmerican customers were left without power around
Geneva and in portions of Hampton, which was restored
later that day.
Two grain bins at Innovative Ag·s Geneva location
sustained heavy damage. The Àrst bin, which was empty,
was uprooted by the extreme winds and smashed into the
second one, which was only partially full. The uprooted
bin was peeled off on Tuesday, and workers started emptying the contents of the second bin Wednesday morning.
The total cost of the damage was unknown.
“I have no idea yet. The insurance company is still
working on that,” said John Conlon, regional manager at
Innovative Ag. “It·s not what I had planned on, but then
again you never plan these things.”
Very few towns were spared. Hampton had numerous trees and branches down throughout the city, and
residents spent much of the day Tuesday and some on
Wednesday picking up after the storm.
It appeared damage at Latimer and Coulter was signiÀcantly less than at other towns, but they weren·t completely unscathed. One tree at the Latimer Manor blew
over and came to a rest on top of the building·s roof.
Teresa Barker was inside her apartment when the tree
fell.
“I heard a crack and could hear it coming. I saw the
branches and ran to the other side of the apartment,” she
said.
The tree didn·t break through the roof, but the ordeal
left Barker shaken.
“I was scared,” she said. “I really thought it was going
to come through.”
• Flooding Àlls up Franklin County
Persistent rainfall throughout the remainder of the
week swelled rivers, streams and waterways across
Franklin County, causing headaches for both mainte-
nance crews and travelers alike.
OfÀcials issued a no-travel advisory for all gravel
roads in Franklin County on Thursday. Washouts and
road closures were common towards the end of the week
as roads became impassable due to saturation.
County engineer Jay Waddingham met with the board
of supervisors Monday morning to review the road situation. The no-travel advisory was lifted later that day, but
damage remained extensive. Twenty roads throughout
the county were closed due to Áooding-related issues.
“They ran out of barricades early,” Waddingham said.
“There·s only so many roads we can close each time.
There·s a lot of red Áags out there right now.”
Flooding rivers and streams had started to recede
by Friday afternoon, but they had left their mark. Huge
pools of stagnant water were still present in many Àelds
and ditches throughout Franklin County after the weekend.
Flood clean-up kits are available for local residents
at each city hall in the county for people affected by the
storms.
“If you·ve had Áooding, you need to get it cleaned up
right away,” Craighton said Friday. “Everything·s plenty
wet.”

HAMPTON CHRONICLE • SECTION A
Darvin and Tracy Peters had their house totaled June 16 when an apparent tornado ripped the roof off their
rural Alexander home. Various other buildings around the Alexander area also sustained heavy damage
during the storm. NICK PEDLEY/HAMPTON CHRONICLE
Rural Alexander couple says yes
tornadoes that destroyed portions of Franklin
County and other areas.
“I could hear the ones last year. We sat and
watched them, they were probably three miles
away,” Tracy said. “I couldn·t hear this one.”
It wasn·t hard for the Peters to make a strong
case that a tornado was the culprit last week. Their
home was ruined – a giant hole in their roof let
rains collapse portions of their ceiling, and the
house had been moved off its foundation.
Scrap metal from unknown buildings dotted
Àelds surrounding Alexander, only furthering assumptions that a twister touched down in the area.
A barn was totaled, and a chicken conÀnement
building also sustained heavy damage to its rooftop during the storm.
The Peters were staying in a camper on their
property for the time being.
“It·s a pretty nice Àfth wheel actually. We·re
lucky we just bought it,” Tracy said with a laugh.
The couple·s insurance company was still trying to put a price on the damage. A structural engineer was supposed to visit by the end of this week
to make a Ànal assessment.
“They can·t give us a straight answer,” Darvin
said on June 18.
• The Damage
The Peters expected their house to be a complete loss. Heavy rains had soaked every portion
of their rooÁess home, which continued to collapse various portions of the ceiling as the week
progressed.
“You don·t even have to take your shoes off
now. You can even smoke in there if you want to,”
Darvin joked.
The Peters had six horses on the property when
the alleged tornado hit last week. All survived, but
the storm still had an impact.
“They were very spooked,” Tracy said. “We
had to string a wire to keep them in, because the
fence was all blown down.”
A trailer parked behind the vacant hog building
sustained heavy damage as well. Holes were visible from the debris that slammed into it, but that
didn·t seem to matter to the Peters.
“We·re just very thankful that we·re alive.
Stuff can be replaced,” Tracy said.
“I felt the
pressure change, and
I heard the sucking
sound in my bathroom
sink. My ears popped.”

An old brick hog shed was obliterated on the Peters’ farm. No animals were inside. NICK PEDLEY/HAMPTON CHRONICLE
TORNADO IN
FRANKLIN COUNTY?
BY NICK PEDLEY
Rural Alexander resident Tracy Peters was
positive a tornado is to blame for the destruction
that left her and her husband homeless last week.
“I felt the pressure change, and I heard the
sucking sound in my bathroom sink. My ears
popped,” she said. “It didn·t sound like a freight
train like they always say it does. I did not hear it.
Just thunder, lightening, hail – and then the pressure change.”
Tracy and her husband, Darvin, had the roof
torn off their home north of Alexander during the
June 16 storms that ripped across Franklin County. Whether or not a tornado touched down there
is still unknown, but Tracy remained certain last
week.
“It had to have been,” she said as she surveyed
the damage last Wednesday.
It would appear her assumptions were correct.
An empty brick hog building on the Peters·
farmstead was completely obliterated during the
mayhem. Trees were destroyed, and parts of the
house were scattered in a Àeld east of the property.

CHRONICLE EDITORIAL
Chronicle Staff
Rain, rain, go away
Last week·s tumultuous weather was yet another reminder of the
unpredictable, and sometimes insane, conditions we·re subjected to here
in Iowa. When it was all said and done, much of Franklin County had
received more than 10 inches of rain during a Àve-day period.
Roads closed, rivers Áooded and some basements were turned into
a muddy mess because of the relentless rainfall. Franklin County was
declared a disaster area by both the board of supervisors and Gov. Terry
Branstad last week, and that certainly seems Àtting. Nearly every ditch,
creek or river throughout north central Iowa burst out of its banks last
week and our county was no exception. We can be thankful we were
spared some of the massive Áooding seen in places like Rock Rapids or
Rock Valley, where extreme conditions completely destroyed homes and
forced the evacuation of many others.
Franklin County received well over $1 million in damage nonetheless.
Flooding proved troublesome, but so too did the June 16 storms that
wrecked outbuildings, demolished trees and caused severe damage to a
handful of homes throughout the county. Whether or not tornadoes were to
blame is still being debated, but some of the evidence around Alexander and
elsewhere seems to indicate a twister touched down at least momentarily.
Streamlined winds caused the most visible wreckage last week.
Branches, and in some case whole trees, lined the streets in Hampton last
Tuesday morning. In Geneva, it looked like a small bomb went off. Every
yard had at least one tree with heavy damage while many others had more.
The scent of freshly-cut wood hung thick in the air Tuesday as residents
worked to clear the broken branches and felled trees.
It was a mess, but it was short lived. Residents can be proud of their
city and county employees, friendly neighbors and local volunteers for
working hard to clean up the wreckage in a timely manor last week. Many
people helped others clear felled trees and branches, but they didn·t have
to. It·s a testament to small town community spirit and friendliness – when
people needed help, there were more than a few helping hands to offer a
rake, chainsaw or some elbow grease.
It seems likely that Franklin County would be declared a disaster zone
by the federal government soon. OfÀcials will make an assessment at a
later date, but much of the damage seen during last week·s storms mirrors
the damage we saw in 2013. Heavy rains caused Áooding, and tornadoes
in early June wreaked even more havoc on our already battered county
last year. It would appear the condensed timeframe of last week·s rain and
wind storms would re-open Franklin County up to federal relief dollars
to recoup some of the damages suffered to secondary roads and other
infrastructure.
It·s quite obvious the rain needs to stay away for a while. Farmers with
new ponds in their Àelds are sour, county and city staffs were inundated,
and many residents were left shaking their Àsts after the storms had passed.
If anything, last week·s conditions proved one of the age-old truths about
Mother Nature – when it comes to the weather, nobody·s happy.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Lang misses mark
with recent column
Letter to the Editor:
Recently, Craig Lang (former
Iowa Farm Bureau Federation president and Iowa Board of Regents)
wrote a guest column in the Waterloo/Cedar Falls Courier and the Des
Moines Register in support of the
Rock Island Clean Line.
Mr. Lang “thinks it reasonable
to ask a small group of individuals
(landowners) to ¶give back· in order
to beneÀt our state and the nation.”
First of all, over 2,000 landowners
is not a small group of individuals.
Secondly, would Mr. Lang be willing to give up his land or his children·s/grandchildren·s inheritance
for the beneÀt of our state or nation?
In many cases, landowners have
worked their entire lives to buy their
farm, use it for retirement income
and pass down to the next generation. It is insulting for Mr. Lang to
suggest landowners should be willing to give up their land, retirement

Hampton resident applauds
city workers after storm
Letter to the Editor:
I was shocked as I drove around
town after the storm the other night.
I knew it was bad, but not that bad.
I thought it would be days before
it was halfway cleaned up. Wrong!
The city/street department did an
outstanding job! We should be
proud of the great crew we have
taking care of our town.

Iowa Indian Uprising Part Three
BY MICKEY FERRIS
The rescue party went cabin to
cabin to bury the mutilated bodies. When they had buried all the
bodies they could Ànd they wanted to start home, but were very
hungry and had no food left. One
man found a box of potatoes under
the Gardner cabin. The potatoes
helped but they were still hungry
when they started the long cold
trek home.
The trip back was even worse
than the trip up to the lakes. They
were on their way when a blizzard
hit and they were wet from the
snow and digging so their clothes
froze stiff. It was 34 degrees below
zero and they had no shelter and
very few blankets.
They did not have matches, but
one of the men tore some cotton
from his vest and Àred his gun into
the cotton to start a Àre. They got a
Àre going and took off their boots
to warm their feet and the boots
froze so they could not put them
back on. Some men wrapped their
feet in strips of blankets so they
could walk.
Even with these conditions, all
the men except two, who decided
to take a shortcut, survived the terrible ordeal. The two who took the
shortcut were found eleven years
later with their guns and powder
Áasks close by their skeletons.
At this point Inkpaduta, his tribe
and the captives, had been on the
go for six weeks. They were now
in what would become Dakota Territory in 1861.
On the Big Sioux River in the
area of what would be Flandreau,
South Dakota, a 16 year old Indian removed Elizabeth Thatcher·s
pack from her back as she approached a fallen tree bridge. Elizabeth had a premonition of death
and called out to Abbie, ¶If you
are so fortunate as to escape. Tell
my dear husband and parents that I
desired to live and escape for their
sakes.·
When Elizabeth reached the
half-way point on the tree bridge,
the teenage warrior shoved her into
the frigid water. Elizabeth swam
to shore and warriors clubbed her
back in to the water. She swam to
shore again and grabbed a tree
root and Indians took clubs and
poles and beat her back into the
river. As she Áoated down the
river Indians followed along and
made great sport of stoning and
clubbing her whenever she was
near a shore. Finally they tired of
the sport and shot the 19 year old
girl. Abbie Gardner called Elizabeth·s death ¶an act of wanton
barbarity·. Lydia Noble was so
devastated by the murder of her
cousin that she
gave up all hope and wanted
Abbie to join her in ¶going to the
river to drown ourselves.· Abbie,
as a Christian, said no and found
the will to survive. Lydia could
not bring herself to commit the
act by herself so the grieving girls
trudged on.
On May 6, thirty miles west of
the Big Sioux River near Skunk
Lake, two Sioux brothers, Makpeya-ha-ho-ton and Se-ha-hota, from the Minnesota Territory·s Medicine Reservation paid
a visit to Inkpaduta. They spent
the whole night listening to Inkpaduta bragg about his exploits
and then offered to trade for Abbie Gardner, but she was not for
sale. Instead, they traded for Margaret Marble. Before they took
her, Margaret spoke to Abbie and
said she thought the Indians might
trade her to some whites, and as
soon as she could she would send
someone to rescue her and Lydia.
They left in a hurry, afraid that
Inkpaduta could change his mind.
Two of Inkpaduta·s warriors went
with them to collect the rest of the
ransom. They traveled east to the
Big Sioux River, where they came
to an Indian Camp. A Frenchman
approached them and greeted the
brothers warmly. They went to his
tent and his Indian wife prepared
potatoes, pumpkin and hot tea.
¶Surely, I thought this a feast
Àt for the gods!· Margaret said.
¶A great contrast from my former
experience with Inkpaduta, where
we subsisted mostly on digging
roots, roasting bones and feathers
to keep body and soul together!·
Indpaduta·s men were paid off and
left. Margaret was taken to Yellow
Medicine Reservation, where the
parents of the brothers who rescued her, became her caregivers. In
a few weeks, Stephen R. Riggs and
Dr. Thomas S. Williamson, missionaries from Hazelwood, Minnesota, came to claim her. Minnesota (which became a state in
1858) paid $500.00 to each of the
brothers who rescued her. Major
Charles E. Flandrau, Indian agent
for the Upper and Lower Minnesota Sioux took Margaret to St Paul.
About one month after Marble·s
rescue, Inkpaduta joined forces
with a Yankton band. One of the
Yanktons, End of the Snake, hoped
to collect a reward by returning
the last two captives, so he purchased them from Inkpaduta. He
continued to work the women as
before, having them do hard physical work. A few nights later an
Indian named Roaring Cloud burst
into End of the Snake·s tepee and
demanded that Lydia Noble go
with him. Since Indians had rules
about stealing, he had probably
purchased Lydia from End of the
Snake. Lydia refused to go with
Roaring Cloud and the warrior
drug her out of the tepee, grabbed a
piece of Àrewood, which ironically, Lydia had just cut, and beat her
with it. After beating Lydia, Roaring Clouds left to wash his bloody
hands. Abbie was not allowed
to go near Lydia. Instead, Abbie
could only listen to her moans for
half an hour before she died.
The next morning Abbie was
forced to watch the Indians abuse
Lydia·s corpse by using her as a target, scalping her and tying her hair
to the end of a stick. They broke
camp and while they marched a
young Indian walked next to Abbie
whipping her in the face with the
bloody scalp.
¶Such was the sympathy a lonely, broken-hearted girl got at the
hands of the noble red man.· Abbie
later reported.
Inkpaduta and his band moved
northwest to a large village on the
James River in what is now South
Dakota. On May 30 1857, three
Wahpetons (Santee Sioux) appeared in the encampment and began a three-day bargaining session
for Abbie. An expensive deal was
struck: two horses, twelve blankets, two powder kegs, 20 pounds
of tobacco, thirty-two yards of
blue cloth and thirty-seven yards
of calico and the captive had new
owners. Mazakutemani (Man Who
Shoots Metal As He Walks, or
John Other Day), Hotonhowashta
(Beautiful Voice) and Chetanma-
za (Iron Hawk) were acting under
the orders of Major Flandrau who
helped rescue Margaret Marble
and who supplied the goods for
Abbie·s purchase. After about ten
days travel in early April they arrived at Yellow Medicine Agency
and the mission of Dr. Thomas S.
Williamson.
At the agency, Abbie was presented, in the name of Dakota
Chief Matowaken, with a beautiful Indian ¶war cap· that had been
secretly transported from the village on the James River.
Each feather represented an
enemy that the chief had killed in
battle, and it symbolized Abbie·s
bravery during her ordeal. Supposedly the cap placed her under the protection of the Dakota
Sioux.
Abbie was escorted by a wagon
driver, an interpreter and her three
Indian rescuers down the Minnesota River to Fort Ridgely, where
Captain Barnard Elliot Bee Jr. and
his wife prepared dinner for them.
Mrs. Bee gave Abbie several gold
coins, and Lieutenant Alexander
Murray bought her a shawl and
material for a dress. They boarded
a steamboat for a trip to St. Paul
where they arrived on June 22,
1857. The following morning the
Indians ofÀcially delivered her to
Governor Samuel Medary with
much pomp and circumstance.
The people of St Paul presented
her with $500.00 which she deposited in a St Paul bank.
From St Paul, Abbie, Governor Medary and his entourage
took a steamboat for Dubuque,
Iowa, where she traveled overland to Fort Dodge. There she
was picked up by her newlywed
sister Eliza·s husband, William
Wilson of Hampton, Iowa. She
reached her sister·s home on July
05. In Hampton, Abbie delivered
to ElizabethThatcher·s parents the
Ànal message Elizabeth had given
to Abbie just moments before her
death.
Abbie, mature beyond her actual thirteen years of age, married 19 year old Casville Sharp,
a cousin of Elizabeth Thatcher on
August 16, 1857.
After 1857 Inkpaduta was reportedly seen hanging around the
Spirit Lake area. His bad deeds
led to the withholding of all Dakota annuities until the guilty parties
of the Spirit Lake
Massacre were brought to justice. Scarce supplies caused unrest
among the innocent Indians which
led to the start of the Sioux Uprising in August 1862; more than
600 white settlers were killed at
New Ulm and elsewhere in southern Minnesota and about 300 were
captured. Inkpaduta was involved
in the atrocities. Once more, he
escaped punishment and Áed. According to Lakota holy man Black
Elk, Inkpaduta was present at the
June 1876 Battle of the Little Bighorn, where he led the Santees
against the 7th Cavalry. In 1877
he took refuge with Sitting Bull
in Canada. He evaded capture and
died in 1881 in Manitoba, Canada. He was considered by historians to be one of the greatest resistance Àghters of the Sioux Nation.
However, Abbie Gardner said ¶By
whites, Inkpaduta will ever be remembered as a savage monster in
human shape, Àtted only for the
darkest corner of Hades.·
Just when you thought Hollywood·s determination to mine 80s
pop culture for all it·s worth was
bad, reality goes and does the same
thing.
A new threat is on the rise. A dangerous organization, led by a ruthless madman and identiÀed by a silly
sounding acronym.
It sounds like something out of
a comic book, but I·m not talking
about the Red Skull and HYDRA or
Cobra Commander and Cobra. I·m
talking about Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and his 10,000 strong army of
terror, ISIS.
We are living in a cartoon world.
I don·t mean to trivialize a truly
dangerous threat to world peace,
but really? “ISIS” is the name of
an organization in FX·s spy spoof,
“Archer.” That·s how crazy the
world is. It·s not just something that
a comedy writer creating a parody show would come up with. It·s
something a comedy writer creating
a parody show did come up with.
An evil terrorist group called ISIS
running amuck and the world can·t
seem to do anything about it? This
is the kind of thing we·re supposed
to suspend disbelief over when it
happens in Àction. There·s a whole
page dedicated to this sort of thing
on TVTropes.com.
Even the back story behind ISIS
reads like something out of Àction.
In Marvel Comics, HYDRA is a
splinter faction of Nazis that broke
off on their own when it was clear
Hitler was going to fall.
Here in the, seemingly, real
world, ISIS was created by al-Qaeda as the “Islamic State in Iraq and
Syria.” Last year al-Qaeda decided to disband the Syrian faction of
ISIS and conÀne its activities to
Iraq. The leader of ISIS, Abu Bakr
al-Baghdadi, said “no way” and has
been operating independently from
al-Qaeda ever since.
So what we need now is an international group of real American
heroes (never was quite sure how
that was supposed to work) with
thematically appropriate names like
“Stampede” and “Sledgehammer.”
Then we·ll give everybody color
coded laser guns that are perpetually incapable of being accurately Àred, throw in some expensive
looking custom vehicles, and we·ll
have a real life Saturday morning
cartoon playing out in the Middle
East.
I·m reveling in the absurdity of
this because that is literally the only
conceivable option I can think of. I
sure haven·t seen a better suggestion about what to do with this incredibly serious situation.
Since splintering off from al-Qaeda, ISIS has been tearing through
Iraq. Earlier this month they took
over Mosui, not only putting the
strategic crossroad city under their
command, but allowing them to
loot $429 million from the central
bank. Last week their push continued as the militants took control of
the town of Tal Afar and their air
base.
Iraqi forces are in retreat and ISIS
is continuing its push on Baghdad.
So what do we do, if we do anything at all?
We just got our troops out of Iraq.
Nobody but the idiots who lied to us
about weapons of mass destruction
are hankering to throw more American lives into the meat grinder that
is Middle Eastern politics.
And even if we wanted to do
something, it·s still hard to say
what that something should be. One
convenient trait from the cartoons
that hasn·t made it to reality is that
there·s no clear line to separate the
good guys and the bad guys. ISIS
is deÀnitely our enemy, but the
enemies of our enemy aren·t our
friends and our friends are enemies
with our enemy·s enemies.
It·s tempting to just sit back and
let them Àght it out until there·s
no one left but we·re talking about
conÁicts that have persisted for centuries with no sign of stopping. It·d
be nice if people would stop being
horrible to each other over something as stupid as slight variations
between Abrahamic religions, but
clearly that·s just not going to happen.
There·s no way to tell if action or
inaction is the right choice. There
probably isn·t a right choice at all.

Logging Camp
This column is a continuation of last
week·s story of my trip to work in Alaska.
I am writing this story to give background
to the opinions expressed in The Alternative.
There is no such thing as unbiased news.
The messenger·s background is as important as the message itself. So as you read The
Alternative be mindful of the basis of my
opinions.
Last week we left off as I caught a Áoat
plane to logging camp at Rowan Bay on
Kuiu Island. Kuiu is east of Baranof, on
which Sitka is located. Ordinarily a plane
would Áy around the end of Baranof to get
across the channel to Kuiu in order to stay
below the clouds.
But, oh boy, we had a clear day. It was
like threading a needle as we were off the
water but under the McConnell Bridge on
take-off. That little four-place Cessna felt
like an amusement park ride as it raced to
clear a craggy pass. I felt like I could reach
out and touch the rocks and snow just beyond the wingtips. Soon we made a gradual
decent across the channel and onto a glassy
Rowan Bay.
LOOKING BACK
The camp had a mess
hall, a generator shed
with a huge diesel generator, an ofÀce with
commissary and bunk
houses made out of mobile homes. The generator
shed had a changing room
attached so a big fan blew
warm air through the
room to dry our clothes overnight.
Machine operators could bring their families to live at camp. The kids went Àshing
while we were at work so we had salmon or
halibut every other night for supper. It was
pretty fun to see the little kids hauling these
huge Àsh home as we rode in from work in
the evening. The other nights we enjoyed
New York strips. Loggers require huge
amounts of calories. Vegetarians would
whither and get hauled away. We could take
a steak to work in foil and put it on the yarder·s intake manifold and the chaser would
send them out on the rigging for lunch.
The type of logging we did was called
high-lead. The yarder was a tower that
HAMPTON CHRONICLE
folded down for transport, built on an old army
tank. The tower served the
same purpose as a topped
ALTERNATIVE tree used to; to gain elevation for dragging the logs.
Fritz
Roads were built with
Groszkruger large crushed rock over
the soft ground.
The rigging was attached to the mainline at one end and haulback at the other. It looked like a giant Àshing swivel and had several places to attach
chokers. The chokers had a bell that slid on
the cable and a nubbin on the end that went
around the log and Àt in a keyhole shape in
the bell to choke the log. The mainline was
heavy cable to pull the logs to the landing.
The haulback pulled the rigging back out to
the words. It was lighter, so it was pretty dangerous when a log got stuck behind a stump
and the yarder operator had to maneuver
the log backwards around the stump. If the
haulback snaps nothing in its path survives.
There were various ways to set chokers so
the logs would get a good start around obsta-
cles. It was a time to celebrate, like Ànding
a new calf, when a tricky set avoided a jam.
All this happened on steep mountainsides
while climbing over brush and log piles up
to 20 feet deep. There is no selective cutting
in high-lead for a couple of reasons. It would
be impossible to pull the logs through standing timber and all the trees depend on each
other for support. The roots form a shallow
network over rocks and clay and a wind
would topple any tree left standing alone.
A forest is like our evolved civilization.
There is nothing wrong with being dependent on each other. This dependence is at the
root of the joy we feel as human beings.
Next week I will wrap up the Alaskan adventure with the human side of the story.

That suits Michael Kofoot just Àne.
Kofoot who just Ànished eighth
grade, likes acting, and he took
part in a production in Clear Lake
last summer. But he couldn·t be
involved in the middle school play
last year because he couldn·t make
it to early morning practices from
his rural home. “This works out a
lot better,” he said. The summer
schedule agrees with most of the
cast of 17. “It·s more fun because
it·s a little bit more relaxed,” said
Megan Pearson. You don·t get so
bored during the summer,” said
Melissa Spurgeon. “It gives you
something to do.”

COUNCIL MEMBER
The appointment must be made
within 60 days after Haugebak·s vacancy takes effect. Citizens in Ward
I have the option to petition for a
special election if they·re unhappy
with the council·s decision.
Prior to the appointment discussion, the council heard from Kyle
Pralle and Landon Plagge of KL
Holdings, LLC. The two men recently purchased the vacant lot
in downtown Hampton known as
Gazebo Park and hope to put up
a three-story apartment complex
there.
Plans are currently in the development stages, and the building·s
completion hinges on a two key factors. Pralle and Plagge are hoping
to receive a state grant from Iowa·s
Multi-Family New Construction
Program (MFNCP) to help pay for
most of the project, and they also
asked the council if it·d be willing to
offer tax incentives for the Àrst few
years after the building is Ànished.
“We need the incentives to get
the cash Áow working, because it
doesn·t work without it,” said Plagge.
The group was excited about the
news and fully supported the project. It agreed to consult legal council
about possible tax incentives for the
development and will report back to
the men soon.
“Everything seems to Àt the requirements of what they (MFNCP)
want. I would be extremely disappointed if we miss it,” said Boehmler. “I want to make sure we·re doing
everything to tee this thing up, because once it·s gone it·s not going to
come back.
H-D APPROVES SHORT-TERM CLASSROOM PLAN
BY TRAVIS FISCHER
With the kindergarten, Àrst grade
and second grade classes all requiring Àve sections, space at South
Side elementary has become scarce.
The school has squeezed every last
inch out of the building, but additional changes still need to be made.
During the special meeting on
Monday, the school board approved
a plan that would move the South
Side library to the corner of the cafeteria for the 2014-15 school year,
giving the building enough space to
accommodate an additional classroom.
The Àx is only meant to be a temporary measure. After approving the
plan for the upcoming school year,
the board discussed more long-term
options with those in attendance.
In an ideal world, the school district would perform a large-scale
renovation to South Side Elementary, building additional wings to
accommodate not only the kindergarten through third grade classes,
but the pre-school and fourth grade
classes as well. However, the $10
million price-tag attached to that
solution is well beyond the district·s
Ànancial capability.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, Lettow proposed a more economically efÀcient idea for freeing
up room at South Side by moving
the kindergarten into the North Side
building.
Room could be made for the kindergarten class, but it would come
with some additional logistic complications. To free up the Àve rooms
needed for kindergarten, the school
would need to split the pre-school
classes into morning and afternoon
groups, ask the AEA to leave the
rooms they rent in the building, and
Ànd a new home for the 3-year-old
Head Start program and the alternative school.
Other options are also on the table, such as utilizing the Youth for
Christ building that neighbors South
Side Elementary. The district has
discussed leasing a portion of the
building to be used for art and music
while space at South Side is scarce.
Lettow says he has even approached Darwin VanHorn about
the possibility of buying the property outright, but has received no response.
Another idea brought up was the
use of portable buildings that could
be leased for as long as they are
needed, and even moved depending
on where they are needed. While
either of these temporary options
would be relatively inexpensive
compared to contracting additions
to the school buildings, there was a
question about the Àscal responsibility of spending money on something
that doesn·t offer a permanent solution.
The decision about how to handle
the district·s increasing student population is made more complicated
due to uncertainty over whether or
not the number of kids will continue
to increase, remain stable, or shrink.
The district has seen an unexpected rise in incoming students, but it
has also seen a rise in outgoing students. Hampton-Dumont was 55 students up from the previous year, but
by the end of the year it had lost 29.
“Even though our enrollment it
going up, it·s probably more of a
bubble than a trend,” said Lettow.

employed by John Deere Company. In 1957 he transferred to John
Deere Co. in East Moline, Illinois,
until he retired in May 1982. Darrell and Gladys then moved to Hampton. Darrell was a member of the St. Paul·s Lutheran Church in Hampton. He enjoyed working on his cars and especially enjoyed working in his
garden.
Darrell is survived by his wife, Gladys; nephew, Duane, and his wife,
Janiece Liekweg; and great-nieces, Robin (Matt) Blythe and Dawn Liekweg.
He is preceded in death by his parents, brother-in-laws and sister-in-laws
George and Leona Liekweg and Harold and Hazel Schmitt.
The permanent addition of classrooms to any building is expected
to cost $2.5 million-$3 million. The
school board expressed apprehension over committing to an expensive project that may not be needed
in the long term.
In contrast, several of the teachers at the meeting expressed a concern that the enrollment numbers
will continue to rise as more people
move to Hampton. Already feeling
the squeeze of the larger enrollment
numbers, there are fears that the current state of affairs may become the
new normal.
While the district has a plan for
the 2014-15 school year, the question of how to address the spacing
problem is still up in the air. The
school administration and teaching
staff will continue to meet in order
to brainstorm ideas that strike a balance between logistic practicality
and economic feasibility.

Relay For Life Fight Back
Ceremony set for July 26
A special Fight Back Ceremony held during the American

Pledges may range from making lifestyle changes to reduce
the risk of cancer, to volunteering
for programs to help those battling cancer, to advocating that
cancer be a priority for elected
ofÀcials.
We all come to Relay For Life
for similar reasons as we may
have battled ourselves or may
have lost a loved one to the disease. Through the Fight Back
Ceremony, we are able to join
forces in making speciÀc, individual commitments to do something to help eliminate cancer as
a major health problem.
Prior to the Fight Back Ceremony, the Survivor Lap will

Alaska and Hawaii became states in
1959. His history teacher assigned
a project that would show the students· interest in history, visual and
original. President Eisenhower selected Heft·s design of our current
Áag in June 1960.
Father·s Day was observed on

FROM YOUR NEIGHBORS
Locals encouraged to “Drop Everything
and Read” in June and July
Reading proÀciency by the end
of third grade is the most important
predictor of high school graduation
and career success. Yet every year,
more than 80 percent of children
from low-income families miss this
crucial milestone. The statistics are
even worse for low-income English
Language Learners and children of
color.
The Hampton-Dumont Community School District, the Hampton
Public Library, Iowa Public Television, the Franklin County Extension
OfÀce, Franklin Medical Center and
La Luz Hispana are all partnering together to make reading a priority in
our county and our community.
Recently, the children at South
Side Elementary read 1 million
minutes with the promise that their
principal would wear a superhero
costume for the day. The students
met with success on that goal. Now
it is summer and the classrooms are
closed. This is where the Hampton
Public Library steps in and has the
annual Summer Reading Program
for children ages birth through high
school and beyond.
Families sign up to read so many
minutes each week and receive reading awards along the way. Reading during summer vacation helps
children, who might experience the
summer slide, retain the progress
they made during the school year.
This is so important for children!
This fall the Franklin County
Extension is presenting The Family
Storyteller with Mercedes Guerrero,
librarian, acting as the connection
between Spanish-speaking families and their library. Iowa Public
Television has placed books and
televisions where wanted, like the
Franklin Medical Center, to help
families keep reading and learn to
watch educational television. La
Luz Hispana is working closely with
English Language Learning families
to help them understand American
institutions like Libraries and Public
Television.
Mayor Brook Boehmler is offering his support by declaring this
proclamation that every family in
Franklin County should Drop Everything and Read every day! This
means everyone. Grandparents,
aunts and uncles, babysitters, librarians, teachers, neighbors and parents!
Children need to see others read-

clases se cerraron. Éste es el momento donde interviene la biblioteca pública de Hampton con su
programa de lectura anual para
niños, desde recién nacidos hasta
secundaria y mayores.
Las familias se inscriben para
leer minutos cada semana y reciben
premios por aquello. Leer durante
las vacaciones de verano, ayuda a
los niños a mantener el nivel que
tenían durante el año escolar. Esto
es muy importante para los niños!

están invitados: abuelos, tíos y tías,
niñeras, bibliotecarias, maestros,
vecinos y padres. Los niños deben
ver a otros leer, entonces los padres
y la familia deben dar el ejemplo.
La aÀrmación es que, el leer solo
o en voz alta con tus niños, es más
entretenido y gratiÀcante que cualquier otra cosa (especialmente los
quehaceres domésticos).
Entonces, todos en el condado de Franklin dejen lo que están
haciendo una vez al día y lean un
libro. Su biblioteca pública está
llena de ellos. Por favor todos los
cuidadanos del condado de Franklin y Hampton participen y ayuden
a difundir el amor por la lectura.
Comienze estos meses de Junio y
Julio, en su casa, escuela o comunidad y continúen el resto del año
si es posible.

All of the children who attended
the program received a magnetic
picture frame. The kids are doing a
great job reading and turning in their
minutes. We have so many kids turning in minutes; we are running out of
prizes and have to order more. We
love it!
We are so excited to have so
many kids participating this year.
We hope they keep this up all summer. Our next program will be June
26 at 1:30 p.m. Our theme is Pinball
Wizards and the movie will be “Inspector Gadget.”
Keep those kids coming!

It has been a long, wet week and
everyone is tired of the rain, but today the sun is shining so that just
makes things seem better. Hopefully
the rain will hold off for a few days
so we can get rid of the Áooding. I
had to take the scenic route to work
today because of it. I·m hoping the
road will be open when I go home.
Even with the rain we had a great
turnout for our summer reading
program this week. We had 29 kids
and parents come to our program
Rockin· Robots. We read the books
“Boy+Bot” and “The Three Little
Aliens and the Big Bad Robot.” Jodi
does a great robot voice. We talked
about how the last book reminded of
the story “The Three Little Pigs.”
This week our craft was also our
snack. We made robots out of pretzel sticks and marshmallows and
decorated them with frosting. The
kids love having a craft they can eat.
It is always interesting to see how
creative and different all of their

Reader of the Week at the Hampton Public Library is Edgar Larios,
age 10. Edgar is the son of Rosa and
Othoniel Larios, and his favorite author is Dan Gutman.
Library Fun Fact: The citizens
of Stony Stratford, near Milton
Keynes, Buckinghamshire, have
emptied their library in a bid to ¿ght
closing it down. It took a week, but
all 16,000 books were checked out
from the library in protest against
council’s plans to close the library
as part of budget cuts. The Librarian calculated that books were being
checked out at a rate of around 378
per hour!
ing. Parents and other family members need to set the example. The
assertion is that reading, whether on
your own or cozied up on the couch
with your kids, is so much more fun
and rewarding than just about anything else (especially chores!)
So, everyone in Franklin County
drop whatever you are doing once a
day and pick up a book! Your public
library is full of them. Please everyone in Franklin County and Hampton join in and help spread the love
of reading in your home, school
and community during June and
July for a start and then continue it
if possible. The children in your life
will beneÀt greatly!

HAMPTON MUNICIPAL COMMUNICATIONS
UTILITY BOARD MINUTES 06/10/2014
Meeting was called to order on 06/10 at 5:33
pm in Hampton City Council Chambers. In attendance were Jeff Christiansen, Mike Barnes,
James Kent, Wade Nasheim and Ron Dunt. Pat
Palmer was absent.
Public Comment: None.
Old Business:
The meeting minutes from 4/8/14 were summarized and approved. The motion was by Kent
and seconded by Barnes. The motion carries
with all in favor.
New Business:
The meeting agenda was modi¿ed to include,
“Discuss questions for survey for Hampton
Industrial Park”. The motion was by Kent and
seconded by Barnes. The motion carries with
all in favor.
We’re still waiting on budgetary pricing from
IAMU. In the meantime, Christiansen attended
an IAMU conference in Cedar Falls to discuss
a NE Iowa ¿ber loop of municipal utilities. The
goal would be to compile resources of several
communities to buy bandwidth in bulk with direct access to the Internet. No formal estimates
were proposed at the conference and the loop
location has not been determined. Several surrounding communities have interest, suggesting that there is a possibility that it could come
very near Hampton.
UNITE ¿ber is in Hampton between the high
school, middle school, south side school and
the court house. The status of the line is currently unknown.
The Board has interest in compiling a survey
asking interest of local business, including but
not limited to those in the Industrial Park if they
have an opinion on their current service and
whether they deem it a viable option for Hampton to provide a communication utility. The
Board would like to review and comment on any
survey before it’s released to businesses and
would like to follow up directly.
Ultimately, the board has to determine if,
based on the information gathered so far, they
can support a city run utility and what position
the board will take moving forward. The discussion has been left open for further comments at
the next meeting but the options are:
• Proceed with the directive of building a municipal utility.
• Discontinue efforts by the board because
of lack of support for a municipal utility.
• Continue with information gathering until a
de¿nitive direction can be obtained.
Meeting adjourned at 6:45 pm. The next meeting is scheduled for 7/08/14 at 5:30 pm in the
Hampton City Council Chambers.

the national Operation Dry Water campaign to draw public attention to the
hazards of boating under the inÁuence.
“We will conduct boating while intoxicated focused enforcement with
increased patrols, check points, and be
administering breath tests and working
to inform the public on the hazards involved on the waters across Iowa,” said
Susan Stocker, boating law administrator and education coordinator for the
Iowa DNR.
Operation Dry Water is June 27-29.
“More than 66 percent of Iowa·s
boating fatalities involved alcohol in
2013 and many of those victims were
innocent bystanders,” she said.
“The effects of alcohol can be intensiÀed when combined with wind and
wave action and an extended time spent
in the sun. Operators may not think
they are under the inÁuence, but their
judgment, reaction time, balance and
vision indicate that they are,” Stocker
said.
In 2013, the Iowa Department of
Natural Resources and its partners
contacted more than 426 vessels containing 1,613 boaters resulting in 90
citations or warnings as part of Operation Dry Water. The 2013 effort
was conducted on the, Coralville Reservoir, Saylorville Reservoir, Lake
Rathbun, Lake Red Rock, Okoboji
and the Missouri River.
The DNR has partnered with the
U.S. Coast Guard, the Army Corps of
Engineers and local sheriff·s departments as part of previous Operation
Dry Water campaigns.

“We wanted a day that the media could come out here and actually learn from people
who are experienced with ¿rearms and show them how much fun it is,” said Baltes, who
wanted to express the less combative side of shooting sports. “We’re not out here in a

Recent rains revive most
of Iowa from drought
State average rainfall for the two weeks of
June 5 through June 17 was 4.01 inches, but
the story is the extreme amounts of rainfall
some areas received.
Rock Rapids had 12 inches, with other
parts of northwest Iowa not far behind that total. Stream Áows in the area are much above
normal, with several locations on the Rock
River and at Perry Creek near Millnerville at
record Áows.
Shallow groundwater is about normal for
most of the state, but in northwest Iowa an accurate assessment of the impact of the recent
rainfall will take a couple of weeks to deter-
mine, especially in areas where wells are located a distance from rivers.
Eighty percent of Iowa is now out of any
drought condition, with 6 percent in moderate
drought and 14 percent experiencing abnormal dryness.
The report is prepared by the technical staff
from the Iowa DNR, the Iowa Department of
Agriculture and Land Stewardship, IIHR—
Hydroscience and Engineering and the U.S.
Geological Survey, in collaboration with The
Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency
Management Department.

Bulldogs have
good tourney at
North Butler
BY KRISTI NIXON
ALLISON – Save for one inning, the Hampton-Dumont softball
team had a fruitful day at the North
Butler softball tournament on Saturday, June 21.
The Bulldogs Ànished the day
2-1, dropping the title game to Class
1A, No. 11 Janesville 6-1 and the
Ànal game was even closer than the
score showed.
It was only after two outs in the
top of the seventh that H-D awakened a sleeping giant in the Wildcats.
A double play on a caught line
drive resulted in a run-down that
ended in the second out coming with
a Janesville player being knocked to
the ground and thereafter lay there
for some time.
After that, Janesville rallied for
four runs – all with two outs.
“That game was closer than the
score showed,” H-D head coach Kelly Meader said of the Ànal against
Janesville. “But, you know, it·s hot,
we·re tired. I·m just proud of them
because we came out and had kind
of a rough week this week and didn·t
play well (Friday) night and came
out today and really played well.
“Probably, I don·t know (Meader

play). I mean, yeah, I think so.”
Janesville came out and scored
right away in the top of the Àrst inning to lead the Bulldogs, but coach
Meader·s team rallied for a run to tie
it in the fourth.
Scheideman led off the inning
with a double, was sacriÀced to
second and ended up scoring on a
throwing error by Janesville catcher
Katy Harp. She had two of the Bulldogs· four hits against Wildcat ace
Shelby Schnurstein.
The Wildcats answered right
back in the top of the Àfth to lead for
good and then tacked on the four-run
seventh after the double play.
H-D opened the tournament with
a 7-0 win over Clarksville, scoring
four in batting around against the Indians in the Àrst inning.
In the opener, both Cassy Miller
and Scheideman hit 2-for-4 with two
runs scored. Both Cate Meader and
Scheideman drove in a pair of runs.
The Bulldogs went on to cruise
past Lake Mills, 14-3 in Àve innings
to gain the title game. Madison Mason and Lexi Sorenson each went
2-for-3 at the plate in the second
game of the day with Mason Ànishing with three RBI and a stolen base.
“We scored some runs today,”
coach Meader said. “So that is what
we were looking for.”

right from the start, he threw strikes
and started getting outs right away.
Something we keep preaching to
these kids is we don·t have to strike
everybody out to have a good game.
Pitch to contact a little bit, get your
stuff ready and that·s exactly what
he did. He threw about 80 pitches
and threw a complete-game one-hitter – can·t complain with that.”
One shot off the bat of an IF-A
player was a wicked shot that Miller
just reached out and snagged that he
said he didn·t even see.
“That was kind of a lucky catch,”
Miller admitted. “(I) just put my
glove up and got it.”
And, in the sixth after a batter
was hit with a pitch, he went out of
the base path to intentionally run
into shortstop Jesus Del Valle, who
made the catch of a pop-up, anyway.
H-D combined for six hits and on
three different occasions left runners
on third, but the lone run came as
Brandon Westendorf singled, went
to third on a double by Bailey Miller
and then scored on a sacriÀce Áy off

Butler meet on the baseball Àeld, it
always turns out close and entertaining.
Friday·s Corn Bowl Conference
tilt was no exception with the Àrstplace Warhawks taking a 2-1 win
over the 2-9 home team at Allison.
The difference was a sacriÀce Áy
in the sixth from West Fork pitcher
Tanner Tuttle, who threw a two-hitter and struck out Àve to earn the
win.
“I was down 0-2 (in the count)
and I was trying to contact swing because there was one out and we were
tied at that point,” Tuttle said. “I
really wanted to get ahead and help
myself out a little bit more. Getting a
run was good enough for me.
“It feels good now knowing that
was actually the winning run and I
actually did help myself more than I
needed to, so good stuff.”
West Fork broke through with
a run in the third on a sacriÀce Áy
by Clay Emhoff to drive in Dawson
Zeitler, who led off the inning with a
double and went to third on a sacriÀce bunt by Reese Halloran.
But the Bearcats answered in the
bottom half of the inning when Dan
Mouw came around to score from
second on a two-out single by Jaret
Wunsch. He coaxed a one-out walk
and stole second.
With a win over Riceville on
Monday, June 23, the Warhawks
own Àrst place in the Corn Bowl (91).
“We·re still in Àrst place right
now with one loss,” West Fork
coach Lance Thompson said. “...
We·re right up there in the top still,
so we·ve got to keep winning. Every
conference team is tough. Everyone
can beat each other so this close win
here is just a testament to how tough
it is. We·ve got to come out and play
hard every single game out there.
“Both teams played really well
out there and we were fortunate
this win.”
Pitching has been going well for
the Bulldogs lately, going back to
the last three recent outings.
“He (Miller) had a lot of good
stuff, another thing we·ve been
teaching the kids is to keep the batter off-balance: curveball, changeups on 1-0 counts that way…not just
going straight fastball so people can
sit on it,” Lokenvitz said. “He really took that to heart, him and Bailey
Miller – and he·s got a good game
going against Clarion that we had to
postpone and have to Ànish, he was
doing it and Flickinger did it in his
last start, so we·re starting to Àgure
out the pitching game and we·re
starting to get the bats rolling a little
bit.
“Today was a little bit bad conditions with the mound not being the
way we needed to be with all the rain
we·ve gotten. The batter·s box was a
little loose, so battling this 1-0 game
was perfect for what we needed.”
And the good news kept coming. The Class 2A district baseball
assignments pair the Bulldogs with
the same group as a year ago in
which H-D had a good run going.
The district, which includes Aplington-Parkersburg, Waterloo Columbus, Dike-New Hartford, Hudson

mistakes last time and go farther.”
The news brought a smile to Lokenvitz·s face.

time (through the order), maybe.
This season we·ve had a lot of mental errors, but we·re young. Tonight,
that wasn·t the case, they really
shored up all that stuff and played a
really nice game.”
The winning run for the Warhawks came as Spencer Halloran led
off the sixth with a single, and went
from Àrst to third on a sacriÀce bunt
attempt by Markus Wogen to set up
what turned out to be the winning
sacriÀce Áy.
Ty Lewis allowed just Àve West
Fork hits, but the two lead-off hits
came back to haunt him.
“Ty Lewis did an outstanding job
tonight,” Miller said. “He was mentally prepared, he was focused. He
did all the little things right tonight.
He was backing things up where
pitchers don·t always do a great job
of, but he did all the little things
right tonight.”
Although he gave up Àve walks
and hit a batter, Tuttle was able to
avoid a big inning. He did give up
one of his two hits to Brandon Heuer
in the Àfth, who came up with the
tying run on third base in the bottom
of the seventh.
It prompted Emhoff, his catcher,
to come out and have a brief talk
with him before getting Heuer to
ground out.
“We were just talking about having conÀdence,” Tuttle said. “I was
conÀdent in my pitches I was throwing and I was pretty sure he would
stop the ball if it was in the dirt so I
really didn·t have to worry about the
fast ball. I was just throwing what I
can, get them out.”
Thompson said, “They did a great
job, they hit the ball hard; luckily, a
lot of them were to us. Our hits, a lot
of them were right to their guys, but

KRISTI NIXON/HAMPTON CHRONICLE
WEEKLY PRO RACING UPDATE
both teams did an excellent job. The
pitchers did a wonderful job on the
mound, as well, kept people honest
and off-balance, so it was just a fun
high school game.”
What made it such a tight game
was the management by both catchers, North Butler·s Shaylon Lahr
and Emhoff for the Warhawks. Both
called a great game and kept runners
at bay when on the base paths.
“We had a senior on our side, a
freshman on their side in Clay – he·s
a really good catcher; he·s going
to be a great threat every time he
plays,” Miller said. “Our catcher and
their catcher are just outstanding:
they block real well, they can throw
you out, so you·re not going to have
a lot of stolen bases, which we like
to do, and tonight was probably not
that night. Of course, we didn·t have
a lot of guys on either side, so that
helps.”
And it showed that on any given
night, any team in the Corn Bowl is
capable of winning no matter the record.
“(The) Corn Bowl is a good conference this year, there is a lot of variety,” Tuttle said. “It really depends
on who (the other team) is throwing,
who is having a good night at the
plate and who we·ve got throwing
and I·ve got conÀdence in all of our
pitchers. We all have low opponent
batting average, so that adds a lot to
our defense – that helps a lot.”
As Miller also said, it helped that
this was a big rivalry game.
“I like to say I·m not happy when
we lose,” Miller said, “but tonight I
was happy with our performance
considering where we·ve been. Our
guys have grown up quite a bit in the
last couple of games.”

A well-timed caution helped get Carl Edwards to the front
of the field, and the driver of the No. 99 Roush Fenway
Racing Ford did the rest. Edwards passed Marcos
Ambrose for the lead moments after a restart on Lap 86
and subsequently held off a charging Jeff Gordon to win
Sunday’s Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma. The victory
was Edwards’ second of the season, guaranteeing him
a spot in the Chase, provided he finishes in the top 30 in
points after race No. 26 and attempts to qualify for every
race. It was the 23rd win of his career and first Sprint Cup
win on a road course. Gordon finished second, only .591
seconds behind Edwards.

BY KRISTI NIXON
HAMPTON – Everything about
Wednesday·s North Central Conference baseball game was efÀcient.
Moved up to a 5:30 p.m. start because of impending weather, Hampton-Dumont moved at a fast pace –
taking less than an hour and a half
altogether – to defeat Iowa Falls-Alden 1-0.
Cole Miller threw a one-hitter
and drove in the only run on a sacriÀce Áy in the third inning as the
Bulldogs improved to 8-8 overall,
3-5 in the NCC.
“I pretty much went straight fast
ball and then a couple curves here
and there just depending on what
we had,” Miller said. “My curveball
wasn·t working that well, but my
fastball was working well enough to
make up for that.”
It didn·t mean that the Cadets
were completely kept off of the base
paths. Miller hit a batter and another
reached on an error.
But that didn·t seem to bother
the Bulldogs, who played very good
defense overall. He struck out six,
including striking out the side in the
second inning.
“Cole Miller, he came out and
was ready to go,” H-D coach Matt
Lokenvitz said. “His arm felt good

IUB releases tips to reduce
summer energy bills
The doctors and nurses at Tom's local
hospital worked with the cardiologists at
the Mercy Heart and Vascular Institute to
quickly diagnose his chest pain so he
could be transferred for life-saving
heart surgery. Tom may have been
the 5,995th heart surgery at
Mercy - North Iowa but he was
very pleased to receive
personalized care for him and
his family. "I always felt that
my comfort and well-being
was very important to them."
With above-normal temperatures
seen throughout much of Iowa last week,
the Iowa Utilities Board reminds Iowa
utility customers of cost-effective ways
to lower summer energy costs without
sacriÀcing comfort and safety.
Several easy steps to help reduce
summer energy use include:
• Block out direct sunlight whenever
possible. Close shades and draperies and
use sunscreens over windows or patio areas during the day.
• Have air conditioning (central or
window units) serviced regularly and
clean or replace Àlters often. Keep air
registers clean and clear of furniture
or other obstructions. Clean outside air
conditioning coils and keep plant overgrowth or other objects at least 12 inches
clear on every side.
• Install/use a programmable thermostat to set the indoor temperature a few
degrees higher when you are sleeping or
away from your residence.
• Use fans to increase indoor air circulation, but only run fans when a room
is occupied to avoid wasting electricity.
Using fans and staying well hydrated
may help individuals maintain comfort
and safety despite turning up the thermostat a few degrees. Elderly persons and
those with health concerns should check
with their doctor before dramatically
changing the temperature in their homes.
• Close air vents/doors to unused portions of a residence.
• During breaks from the hottest and
most humid weather, especially in the
evenings when it is typically cooler,
open windows to take advantage of outside air.
• Use heat-producing appliances
such as ovens, stoves, dishwashers, and
clothes washers/dryers during non-peak
hours, such as the late evening or early
morning when it is cooler.
• For long-term natural shading,
plant shade trees on the south and west
sides of homes or buildings.
• Make home weatherization investments that can signiÀcantly reduce
energy use throughout the year. Financial assistance for weatherization and
energy emergencies may be available to
qualiÀed low-income Iowans through
the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program and LIHEAP weatherization programs.
For additional long-term energy savings, contact your local utility about a
home energy audit, potential Ànancial
incentives or rebate programs, and energy-efÀciency options such as:
• Adding insulation: Investment in
an insulation upgrade often produces
cost-effective energy savings throughout the year.
• Installing energy-efÀcient windows: Many Low-E windows permit
visible light to pass through them, but
help block heat transfer.
For more ways to stay cool, reduce
energy usage, and save money during
the summer, please contact or visit the
website of your local utility. Additional household energy-saving information can be found by visiting the Iowa
Energy Center·s website at www.iowaenergycenter.org and the Energy Star
website at www.energystar.gov. The
Iowa Utilities Board also provides additional energy efÀciency information
and resources as well as an overview of
Iowa·s energy efÀciency plans and programs.
