War memorial restored at Coulter cemetery BY TRAVIS FISCHER Things are looking good at the Coulter City Cemetery. The cemetery board is happy to announce that restorations have been completed for the cemetery’s war memorial. Built in the 1950s, the war memorial has honored fallen soldiers in the cemetery for decades, but time has taken its toll. “It was starting to crack and fall apart,” said Myron Lawler. With a $2,000 grant from the Community Foundation of Franklin County, along with about $800 in additional donations, the cemetery board has patched up and refurbished the war memorial. Working when time permitted, the restoration process took about a week. “I think it’s beautiful,” said Bertha Thielen, whose father, Arnie Ostergaard, built the original monument. Now that the refurbishing is finished, all that’s left is the finishing touches.

Two public hearings were held before approving resolutions for the Highway 65 Traffic Signals Project and 2016 Overlay and Pedestrian Ramp Improvement’s Project. The traffic signal project will replace the signals on the intersection of Highway 3 and 65 and modify the signals on the intersection of Highway 3 First Street to have a single flashing red light. To keep up with state regulations, as the work is done on the intersection of Highway 3 and 65, the sidewalks and crosswalks need to be brought up to disabled accessibility standards. The council accepted a $137,900 bid from K&W Electric, Inc. out of Cedar Falls to perform the traffic WEDNESDAY, JUNE 29, 2016 The Hampton-Dumont School Board will hold a special meeting on Thursday evening, June 30, in the district administration boardroom. A closed session will be held from 6 until 6:15 p.m., for a strategy session for collective bargaining. At approximately 6:15 p.m., the board will return to open session to discuss sharing positions with CAL, approve staffing hirings, pay yearend bills, approve the sale of iPads and approval of bids regarding door security. Gary Stenzel applied iron supplement treatments to three trees in Band Shell Park on Thursday. It is hoped that the treatments will improve the health of the trees and prevent a costly removal. TRAVIS FISCHER/ HAMPTON CHRONICLE signal modifications and sidewalk renovations. In order to minimize the impact on traffic flow, the contractor will work on one lane at a time throughout the project. The traffic signal project is expected to be completed by November 15. The council also accepted a $123,415.72 bid from Heartland Asphalt for street overlay and pedestrian ramp improvements. The bid encompasses milling and overlay for six blocks worth of Hampton’s streets, from 5th Ave to 8th Ave on both 5th Street and 8th Street SW. In other business, Rick and Gaye Janssen were recognized at the meeting with an Image of Pride award. Nominated by Meghan Freie, the Janssens were complimented on their yard and the amount of work they put into keeping it looking nice. “You can tell they put a lot of work into it,” said Freie. “They’re always improving things. It just looks very nice.” See COUNCIL: Page 5 CAL to discuss financial situation in district Tuesday evening The CAL Community School District Board of Education will be holding a public meeting at 7 p.m., on Tuesday, June 28, in the CAL School Auditorium regarding the current financial situation of the district and plans for the future of the district.

The long-serving Republican visited Beeds Lake State Park as part of his tradition of traveling to all 99 Iowa counties. Friends of Beeds Lake, a non-profit group aiming at cleaning the lake up, was on hand to meet the governor, as well as Franklin County Supervisor Corey Eberling and members of the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR). During the discussion, the governor asked if Beeds had seen the effects of the emerald ash borer. “I had the District Forester out last summer and they didn’t find any evidence of [the emerald ash borer] yet,” said Beeds Lake park ranger Scott Doescher. The park ranger stressed the importance of Beeds to the local area with the governor. “I’ve been incredibly blessed to see the interest people have [for the lake],” Doescher said. Gov. Branstad also discussed the issue of cleaning up Beeds Lake with Dave Heyden, a community member with Friends of Beeds Lake. The governor mentioned a $9 million bond that goes statewide for projects like lake cleanups. Heyden pointed out that the estimate to cleanup just the west side of Beeds SPECIALIZING IN RESIDENTIAL ROOFING Our Services include: ROOF REPAIR & REPLACEMENT We will do ANY ROOF Big or Small Bryce Dorenkamp 641-512-0343 6KHIÀHOG,RZD After years of hard work and dedication, it is time for a PERMANENT VACATION!

This talk came on the same day as a swimming warning issued for Beeds Lake by the DNR. The recommendation of no swimming was due to elevated levels of E. coli in the waters. The DNR will retest and announce when swimming can be reinstated.

TRAVIS FISCHER/ HAMPTON CHRONICLE Restoring the Coulter Cemetery has been a passion project for Lawler since 2010, when a powerful storm dealt immense damage to the area. More than a dozen trees surrounding the perimeter of the cemetery were uprooted, jump starting an effort to clean up the grounds and make them better than ever. Six years to the day of the storm, the old trees have been removed and new ones are growing in their place. Broken headstones have been fixed and now the war monument looks as good as new. Benches provide vis- itors with a comfortable place to sit and chit chat with either the living or the dead. “We’re pretty happy with it,” said Lawler. “It’ll be a nice place for a long time without a lot of upkeep.” Community contributions have been vital to the restoration of the cemetery. Whether donating time or material, residents of Coulter have been generous in their contributions. “Sooner or later I’ll snag everybody in town for a weekend,” said Lawler.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Not in my back yard… To the editor: If Hampton would like to have a pork processing plant then HAMPTON should have it. Don’t put it in my back yard and expect me to do a happy dance about it. Hampton should have the privilege of increased semi traffic, noise, stench and the by products of slaughter. Keep it in Hampton. Hampton did not want a main street apartment house because of the tenants they thought would rent there. Hampton wants to have a pork processing plant in my town. What’s wrong with this picture? Toni Pralle, Latimer WHEN HYPE MEETS HATE CHRONICLE EDITORIAL Chronicle Staff Rotary and Chamber should be commended for saving fireworks event Few likely realize it, however, up until about 10 days ago, the skies would have been dark for the Fourth of July weekend. That’s when Hampton Rotary Club members led by Brad Staley, and members of the Greater Franklin County Chamber of Commerce teamed up to save the annual event. With the demise of the Hampton Jaycee Club earlier this spring, no one had picked up the torch to continue the event. However, when 4G Pyrotechnics of Belmond had offered to do a show on July 3rd at the Franklin Count Fairgrounds, Staley and the Hampton Rotary Club sprung into action committing to raising $1,500 along with a dollar for dollar match of another $1,500 from the Franklin County Tourism, a division of the Greater Franklin County Chamber of Commerce. So, take a few moments to thank Staley, 4G Pyrotechnics, GFCCC Executive Director Newt Grotzinger, and the rest of the chamber staff for coordinating the show on short notice. With the community’s support, and future monetary contributions towards the event, the show can live on next year in a bigger and better fashion. It’s interesting how expectations and reputation can affect the perception of a product. This week saw the release of “Mighty No. 9,” a game that had many expectations to live up to. First, a bit of backstory. Even non-gamers are probably familiar with Mega Man in some capacity or another. He’s a blueclad super fighting robot that jumps across platforms, absorbs the weapons from his enemies and explodes upon the slightest contact with a pointed edge. The Blue Bomber had a pretty consistent presence in the video game scene starting from his debut in 1987 right up to 2010 when Capcom, for reasons unknown, decided they’d had enough. Flash-forward to 2013, where producer Keiji Inafune had had enough with Capcom’s neglect for the Mega Man franchise. Inafune left Capcom to start his own company, Comcept, and launched the studio on the promise of doing what Capcom wouldn’t. Under any other circumstances, “Mighty No. 9” would be called a knock-off of “Mega Man,” but with Inafune and the other Capcom developers that followed him at the helm, it was instead dubbed a “spiritual successor.” Inafune went to Kickstarter and asked for $900,000 to produce the game. He got nearly $4,000,000, and everybody in the gaming world felt pretty good about that. Not only were gamers finally getting a new “Mega Man” game (in everything but name), but the success of the Kickstarter proved that developers could free themselves from their corporate shackles and strike out on their own. But things only went downhill from there. While Comcept proved to be very successful at creating a community around their project, maintaining it proved to be another matter entirely. A divisive community manager split the community against itself, creating controversy that shouldn’t have affected the game itself, but certainly dampened enthusiasm for AGE OF THE GEEK Travis Fischer the project. Then came the delays. “Mighty No. 9” was targeted for an April 2015 release. You may have noticed that it is not April 2015. In this, the game was a victim of its own success. By raising 400% of its original budget Comcept was able to fund a score of “stretch goals,” which included multi-platform releases and an online challenge mode, two things which drastically increased development time, resulting in the game being delayed three times. With morale plummeting as the user base grew increasingly impatient, Comcept released a tone-deaf advertisement that was outright insulting to the game’s primary consumer base. A base that had paid for the game in 2013 and at that point had received nothing but disappointment and frustration since. Then, last week, the moment of truth. The game was released… mostly. I’ve gotten my copy, but scores of people, particularly console owners and overseas backers, have yet to receive the game. So after all the problems and delays, how was the final product? Mediocre at best. Not bad. Not great. Just mostly okay. Nothing to write home about, much less write a whole column about. Mediocre games happen all the time. Every single week a developer you’ve never heard of puts out a game that you’ll never hear about. That game probably won’t be bad, but it also probably won’t be worth your time or money either. And nobody cares because nobody has any expectations for it one way or the other. Sometimes beloved developers even put out mediocre games. Platinum Games is a company known for their spectacular combat, so when they announced that they were developing a game for the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” franchise, it seemed like a match made in heaven. Unfortunately, the final product did not live up to expectations, which is disappointing, but it happens. Gamers shared a collective sigh of disappointment and moved on to the next thing. For “Mighty No. 9” though, gamers aren’t letting this one go. The community has been flush with memes about the game’s launch problems, underwhelming graphics and substandard gameplay. If the community didn’t get their entertainment value playing the game, they’re certainly getting it by tearing the game down. It turns out that if you’re going to frustrate and insult your customers, you better make sure the final product lives up to expectations. Some companies can get away with it. Nintendo, for instance, has struggled under an endless string of poor decisions since 1996. They are spectacularly out-of-touch with the modern gamer and continually make decisions that aggravate their most loyal customers. And yet all it took was one trailer for the new Zelda game to sell me on their next system. Comcept does not have that level of good will and at this point they’re unlikely to ever get it. With so many problems during the development, I’m not sure it’s possible to make a game good enough to earn back all that lost good will. For me, I spent $20 on a game that took nearly three years to make and one night to nearly finish. When I get some free time, I’ll beat the final boss and probably never play it again. Were this a random game on Steam I wouldn’t have bought it, but that’s the chance you take when you Kickstart something. For Comcept and their investors, it’s a lesson learned the hard way. Travis Fischer is a news writer for Mid-America Publishing and thinks now is the time for Capcom to announce “MegaMan X9.” SUMMER FUN IN IOWA • Summer Adventures County fair season has officially kicked off in District 54 with the Butler County Fair last week. I really enjoy visiting each of the county fairs in the district because it gives me an opportunity to talk with constituents and hear about their ideas and concerns. With the official start of summer, many families will be making plans for vacations and weekend getaways. Iowa is full of hidden treasures, which makes our state a perfect place to plan your summer adventure. Here are a few suggestions on where to travel this summer: • Visit Iowa’s beautiful state parks Whether you’re into boating, fishing, camping, or hiking, Iowa’s state parks have something for everybody. Iowa has several biking and hiking trails for beginners and experts all across the state. We also have lakes in almost every corner of the state for fishers and boaters to enjoy a nice summer day. Some of the best memories are made sitting around a campfire telling stories and grilling s’mores. Reserving a campsite is as easy as visiting the reservation portion of the Iowa DNR’s website whether you bring your camper or your tent. You can find a full list of Iowa’s state parks and preserves on the Iowa DNR’s website. • Ride across Iowa on RAGBRAI Bicyclists travel from across the country each year to participate in the Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa (RAGBRAI). Each year, bikers travel from the western coast of Iowa, beginning at the Missouri River, to the eastern coast, ending at the Mississippi River. This year, bikers will begin in Glenwood and travel through southern Iowa, making stops in Glenwood, Shenandoah, Creston, Leon, Centerville, Ottumwa, Washington, and finally ending in Muscatine. RAGBRAI is a great way to stay active over the summer while also taking in the beautiful sights of Iowa on a trip across the state. This year’s RAGBRAI will take place July 24-30. UNDER THE GOLDEN DOME, TOO Linda Upmeyer One of Iowa’s lakes, a music festival or an art fair gets you out to see the treasures in Iowa communities across the state...to help support local them and their economies. • Check out one of Iowa’s many county fairs Iowa is recognized nationally for agriculture. As America’s top pro- ducer of pork, corn, soybeans, and eggs, agriculture is vitally important to Iowa’s economy. County fairs give us the opportunity to showcase the importance of this industry to many people that aren’t involved in agriculture. We all know and love the Iowa State Fair for its promotion of Iowa agriculture, but county fairs give us a local view to our state’s agriculture. County fairs are an opportunity to introduce our kids and grandkids to agriculture and teach them about its importance to Iowa. Many events at county fairs give students real world experience that they can use in the future through a variety of programs and activities like raising and showing livestock. County fairs also provide worldclass entertainment ranging from rides to nationally known musicians. We also shouldn’t forget about all of those delicious fair foods! Several county fairs have already kicked off this year, and will extend into the late summer. • What else to do? There are numerous other sum- mer adventures across Iowa to spend time this summer. Visit the birthplace of Herbert Hoover in West Branch to learn more about the only President from Iowa. Enjoy the thrills of a race at the Iowa Speedway in Newton or visit the Sprint Car Hall of Fame and Museum in Knoxville. Visit Iowa’s original Capitol building in Iowa City and explore the beautiful University of Iowa campus. There are plenty of fun activities and places to visit across Iowa this summer. I hope that you’ll join me in visiting these Iowa sights this summer as a day trip or a mini-vacation. One of Iowa’s lakes, a music festival or an art fair gets you out to see the treasures in Iowa communities across the state. Another benefit to traveling Iowa is all of these options help support local communities and economies. To find more unique Iowa adventures, visit TravelIowa.com.

The mass shooting in Orlando is tragic in ways beyond the immediate loss of loved ones and the terror experienced in the event. Well-intentioned advocates, pundits, and politicians jumped on the news as a way to further their own agendas. They all approached it from the aspect of top-down management of our world, as if they run a zoo. I actually heard Senator Joni Ernst say that if President Obama hadn’t pulled our troops out of Iraq we wouldn’t be experiencing so many terrorist attacks. No explanation came after that about how destroying and occupying a foreign land wins friends. She joined the chorus of voices calling for rebuilding a military that is 12 times larger than any other on earth, in response to one jihadist in a nightclub. I don’t want to lessen the importance of Islamic jihadist issues. It is an important issue. But that issue has been so convoluted as to become the reason for expansion of government at any cost. The right’s obeisance to the military industrial complex has blinded them to being reasonable regarding the military’s mission to protect the United States. For instance, an article in last week’s Wall Street Journal titled, “U.S. Struggles to Replace Afghan Aircraft,” it contained this quote: “One helicopter exploded in midair, victim of a suspected grenade accident on board. Another was destroyed when another helicopter accidentally opened fire on the tarmac.” Military leaders are upset at Obama’s sanctions that don’t allow us to replace these $19 million Russian helicopters. What does this have to do with protecting Americans? Wasn’t the Soviet Union going down the same path when it went belly-up? Everything has a cost. The risk of dying in a mass shooting in the last year is 3.6 million to one, compared to the risk of being struck by lightning at one in 1.2 million. Even spending unlimited funds to make every single person in the U.S. a bubble boy, would still have unforeseen risks. To lessen the risk of being struck by lightning, we can stop waving golf clubs at thunderstorms and go inside. To lessen the chance of being killed in a mass shooting, we can stay away from gun free zones. But in Florida that would mean never going to a place that serves alcohol. The State of Florida has eliminated private property rights by making it illegal to carry a firearm in such places. And in the process, issued a death sentence to a certain number of their innocent citizens. In Florida, if the same percentage of people who hold concealed carry permits were allowed to do so at the Pulse nightclub there would have been twenty capable of limiting the carnage. We already have laws to protect people from the aggression of other people. Advocates of pre-emptive action such as the war on terror or gun control are merely joining the other big government busybodies in making things worse. They don’t see that the funds used and freedom taken for their grand plans make us more reliant and less able to get along and survive in a dangerous world. Those who say being in a government database or surrendering weapons to the state has no effect on them, might change their tune when living under the next regime or cowering under a table. Self-sufficient private individuals have always done more for our safety than government bureaucrats. In 1755, Ben Franklin, had a warning still poignant to this day, “Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” Please share your thoughts with a letter to the paper or by email to [email protected].

LOCAL NEWS HAMPTON CHRONICLE • SECTION A Latimer City Council discusses budget, Prestage BY ZACH CLEMENS The Latimer City Council will not have to fix an error that almost doubled expenses through a budget amendment at a special meeting at the end of May. According to Melissa Simmons, City Clerk of Latimer, the State of Iowa Department of Management instructed her not to fix the error as long as the council does not go over the amendment. The Budget amendment almost doubled expenses from $539,197 to $1,054,434. The council was made aware of the advice from the Department of Management during their regular meeting on June 15.

After some discussion, it was decided that Latimer was not set up for a RV dump at this time. The city council heard a brief presentation from Lohrbach Insurance and Jester Insurance (EMC) along with Castle, Dick, and Kelch Insurance regarding the City’s insurance renewal effective July 1, 2016.

EMAIL US AT [email protected] LION SWEEP IF-A no-hits Bulldogs HAMPTON – It took an IF-A school record 16 strikeout, no-hit performance by Kolten Peterson to shut down the Hampton-Dumont baseball team this time. Peterson out-dueled Caleb Chaney in a rematch of a game played at Iowa Falls earlier this season in which the Bulldogs had triumphed 11-1 in six innings. This time, however, Peterson was better – much better – in a 1-0 shutout of H-D coach Matt Lokenvitz’s team. The first time, Peterson was lifted after five innings in giving up seven hits, four walks and six runs, five of which were earned, while striking out seven. This time, he was nearly untouchable. Save for an error on lead-off hitter Johnny Guerrero’s first at-bat, in fact, he could have been perfect. And the winning run turned out to come in the opening inning when catcher Ben Scadden led off with a double, and two hits later Michael Kent drove in courtesy runner Cody Harding to provide the only difference. It foiled Chaney’s 10-strikeout performance. He gave up only five hits, just two the rest of the way after the opening inning, and walked two. The Bulldogs fell to 7-13 overall, 2-6 in the North Central Conference. Iowa Falls-Alden 1 Hampton-Dumont 0 IF-A H-D 100 000 0 000 000 0 –1 5 1 –0 0 0 Winning battery – Kolten Peterson and Ben Scadden. Losing battery – Caleb Chaney and Spencer Clark.

CAL baseball rallies for second win LATIMER – A two-run rally in the bottom of the seventh made Nate Rapp a winner in CAL’s 4-3 baseball win over Dunkerton on Friday, June 24. He helped out his own cause with two doubles and two RBI as the Cadets improved to 2-11 overall. Coach Ralph Bell’s team had nine hits – four by Luke Rapp – as it led 2-0 early, fell behind by a run after the fifth and then made a valiant comeback against the Raiders.

KRISTI NIXON/HAMPTON CHRONICLE NEVER GIVE UP: ƒ Area rivals battle it out in 11-inning baseball game BY KRISTI NIXON SHEFFIELD – Neither team was going to give an inch. As West Fork and Hampton-Dumont baseball teams duked it out in a non-conference baseball battle, back-and-forth it went until the dust cleared and the Bulldogs emerged three hours later with a 9-8 win in 11 innings as the Warhawks had the tying run on third. The lead changed five times and was tied three times before it was over on Tuesday, June 21 at Sheffield. “This was quite a battle here,” H-D coach Matt Lokenvitz said, “and I’m super-proud of my guys, they never quit. We had a couple of chances to end the game; we had a couple of errors in the bottom of the seventh and what-not. “But a young team is going to have that, so we continue to battle, continue to fight and I can’t ask any more than what we got tonight.” West Fork coach Lance Thompson added, “The kids did a great job of competing at the plate and also on the mound. The pitchers that came in did a good job of firing strikes and for us, Mitchell Halloran, he was wearing down a little bit, but he wanted to stay in the game there. I let him stay in and he did a great job competing, knocking them down and giving us a chance. “Neither team could push over a run and it kept going extra innings, but it was a fun high school game.” Two key balk calls – one on each team – tied the game at six in the fifth inning and actually gave the Bulldogs the go-ahead run in the 11th. With runners on first and third, Lukas Wogen took off from first, forcing H-D starter Justin Kent to flinch and the call sent Rylan Fleshner home from third despite the protests of Lokenvitz. “I don’t know, it’s kind of weird,” Lokenvitz said. “I thought the officiating was a little bit weird on both sides, but you are going to have those. In a crazy game, you go 11 innings and for them to tie the game a couple of different times. “They are battling back, we are battling back, the umpires are doing the best that they can and so you can’t fault the umpires, you can’t fault their team or our team, it’s just one of those good, fought-hard battle games where crazy things happen.” The other balk gave H-D the 8-7 lead in the 11th after winning pitcher Jacoby Mutschler led off the inning with a one-out single and Nate White, who homered in his first atbat and went 4-for-5 with a walk, doubled down the right field line to put runners on second and third. Clay Emhoff’s f linch on the mound was barely detectable while facing Caleb Chaney, but it was called and then later Hunter Sutter drove in what turned out to be a much-needed insurance run for H-D. “It happens,” Thompson said of the balks. “I mean, neither coach agrees with it, but it happens, so This was quite a battle here and I’m super-proud of my guys, they never quit. We had a couple of chances to end the game; we had a couple of errors in the bottom of the seventh and what-not. — MATT LOKENVITZ, H-D coach you’ve got to take it in stride and keep competing and both teams did.” After taking a 9-7 lead into the bottom of the 11th, it was far from over as the Warhawks had the top of their order coming up. Reese Halloran led off with a single and after Emhoff flew out to center, Fleshner, who was 3-for-6 but reached a fourth time on an error back in the four-run second, doubled to put two in scoring position. Dawson Zeitler hit a sacrifice fly to right and Fleshner got in a lengthy run-down between second and third reaching the bag on a throwing error, putting him 90 feet away representing the tying run. But Mutschler got Wogen to fly out to center to end it. The Bulldogs recorded 14 flyouts against a West Fork team that makes solid contact with the ball. In fact, the Warhawks struck out only three times in the extra inning contest. H-D struck out 13 times and both teams ended the 10 th inning with a strikeout looking. Regardless, this was the fourth straight win for the Bulldogs after starting the first 10 games of the season 3-7. They went to 7-10. “I think our kids are starting to learn that we are talented,” Lokenvitz said. “We started off real early and I kept telling them how talented we were but we weren’t seeing it on the diamond. Now all of the sudden we are getting big hits when we need the big hits and we are pitching when we need to pitch, we are field- Hampton-Dumont pitcher Jacoby Mutschler leaps after he threw his glove in the air in reaction to the final out in the Bulldogs’ 11-inning win at West Fork. KRISTI NIXON/HAMPTON CHRONICLE ing when we need to field. They are starting to see that we are putting these things together, we are a pretty good team. We are starting to move forward. “Their confidence is growing and it’s really helping us as a team.” H-D senior catcher Spencer Clark, who is out for varsity for the first time, said the improvement in the team is evident after a game like this. “When we started the season, we’d have a rough inning, we hung our head and stuff,” Clark said, “but we’ve grown as a team and I think our younger kids have started to grow up and I feel like we’ve matured from the first part of the season as a team and that showed tonight, I think.” West Fork’s road last week didn’t get any easier as it started it with a tough doubleheader sweep by top-ranked 1A team Mason City Hampton-Dumont 9 West Fork 8 (11) H-D 204 001 000 02 – 9 15 WF 140 010 100 01 – 8 14 4 0 Winning battery – Justin Kent, Jacoby Mutschler (9) and Spencer Clark.

Nate White, who is among the conference leaders in batting average, batted 1.000 against the Lynx (4-for-4), including a solo home run and scored two runs in the road victory. Justin Kent also continued to stay hot at the plate by hitting 3-for-4 with a walk, driving in three runs. Caleb Chaney yielded eight hits, struck out two and walked four to earn the win. Four of the six runs he gave up were earned. Jacoby Mutschler came on in the last inning to help close the door. It was the third straight win for H-D.

BY KRISTI NIXON HAMPTON – It was a long 24 hours for Hampton-Dumont pitcher Kylie Voy. She pitched a complete game about 15 hours before the Bulldogs’ softball team played a make-up doubleheader with Clear Lake on Saturday afternoon. But Voy pitched both ends of the doubleheader to completion in a 102, 15-5 (five inning) sweep of the Lions at Hampton. “I feel fine,” Voy said after completing the day. “I’m a little sore, but I just push through it. I push through every game no matter what. I love this team and so I just keep pushing through and I know I can do it and push myself to do it.” With only one day of rest before H-D was back in action in another doubleheader Monday at Clarion-Goldfield, Voy intended to ice both her shoulder and elbow. “She played with guts today,” H-D coach Kelly Meader said of Voy. “She pitched a good first game, pitched hard. I thought about starting Autumn (Harlan) in the second game, but I just had a hunch to let Ky go until she could and she did really well.” Clear Lake ambushed Voy and the Bulldogs with a two-run homer in the opening inning of the first game, but Voy and the defense allowed just three more hits the rest of the way in the complete game. Voy only struck out two in the opener, walking two and hitting a batter with a pitch. Otherwise, she had a defense behind her that made the plays. During the second game, H-D jumped out right away on Lions’ pitcher Kiersten Baalson, who pitched a complete first game also, but was lifted in the fourth as the Bulldogs loaded the bases with only one out already commanding a 5-0 lead. By the fourth inning, the Bulldogs had batted around against both Baalson and Reagan Brackey and held a 13-2 lead. But the Lions forced H-D to play the bottom of the fifth as they strung together three straight hits against Voy, including an infield single to load the bases and scored all three runs. But H-D answered with two on a two-run single by Triston Rew after Harlan singled to lead off the fifth and Macy Scheideman worked a walk that ended it early. “I knew our team could do it,” Voy said, “because our team can do anything when they put their mind to it.” The two games combined, H-D rapped out 27 hits against the Lions. With the sweep, the Bulldogs (116 overall, 6-5 conference) are sitting third in the North Central Conference behind Humboldt (22-3, 10-1) and Webster City (10-8, 7-2). “I’m proud of the girls because they are starting to come together as a team,” Meader said. “Our lineup is hitting, starting to string our hits together, we are running bases well and communicating on the defense well. This team is really coming together as a group. “We’re having fun, which is what you have to do when you play softball, especially when you play this many games in a row and they’re just a good group of sisters out there.” Hampton-Dumont 10 Clear Lake 2 (Game 1) H-D 002 305 0 - 10 13 1 Clear Lake 200 200 0 - 2 5 4 Winning battery – Kylie Voy and Paige Springer.

SPORTS HAMPTON CHRONICLE • SECTION A WEDNESDAY, JUNE 29, 2016 11 Members of the Hampton-Dumont softball team celebrate after Callie Grover (12) hit a two-run home run in the second inning of Friday’s 10-3 win over Iowa Falls-Alden on Friday night. KRISTI NIXON/HAMPTON CHRONICLE Sinking the Cadets ƒ Bulldogs combine for 16 hits, including 2 HRs in NCC victory BY KRISTI NIXON HAMPTON – A good hitting session before Friday’s North Central Conference game against Iowa Falls-Alden did the trick for the Hampton-Dumont softball team. The Bulldogs went for 16 hits – 12 against starter Ashley Bicknese – and hit one home run off of Bicknese and another off of Lindsay Aldinger, who came on in the third after H-D had commanded an 8-1 lead in an eventual 10-3 victory over the Cadets. Junior third baseman Callie Grover was a triple shy of the cycle in the game, hitting her second career home run and her first in front of the home crowd. “It was a great feeling to get it over,” Grover said. “It felt really good off of my bat and it felt great to get one this year.” But hitting was contagious up and down the lineup. Lead-off batter Cassy Miller hit the other home run – one of four against Aldinger – as she went 2-for-3, also hitting a double and had a sacrifice bunt. It was Miller’s first career home run. “But she has been hitting with a lot of power this whole year,” H-D coach Kelly Meader said. “That girl has put a lot of time in the weight room – she doesn’t miss and she is in there at 6 a.m. and working out and she’s a diehard. She’s gotten a lot stronger.” Autumn Harlan, hitting out of the No. 3 spot, was 4-for-4 – all singles – and drove in a run. All but one in the Bulldogs’ lineup reached base at least once and all nine made solid contact against both IF-A pitchers. “We did a lot of hitting today and I think that helped us a little bit,” Grover said. “We hit line drives off of the machine. We’ve been hitting a lot lately and we’ve been hitting well. So I think we just focused on the ball and hit line drives tonight.” Meader said that the hitting session was evident in the game. “I think so,” Meader said. “Our bats came alive tonight. Thank goodness because some days you just don’t know. You get…Bicknese is a good pitcher. I think we jumped on her tonight a little bit. We all respect her very much, some nights it just happens that way. We’ll take that.” Kylie Voy earned the win in the circle, giving up six hits and striking out four with no walks. She also was benefited by a solid defense behind her, including a great diving catch by second baseman Triston Rew to start the sixth inning as well as some great outfield grabs early. “I thought Kylie pitched well again,” Meader said. “For as many games as she has in her right now, she’s done a great job. Defensively, I thought we played well, too. That was good to see.” AGWSR’s Abbie Young steps on home plate as East Marshall catcher Madison Farrington calls for the softball during NICL West play Thursday. AGWSR won 3-2.

KRISTI NIXON/HAMPTON CHRONICLE MAKING CONTACT • Bulldogs break through against West Fork softball team SHEFFIELD – For the Hampton-Dumont softball team, it was all about making contact. The Bulldogs didn’t record an offensive strikeout all game against West Fork eighth-grader Rachael Hubka and broke through for a couple of runs late in their 3-1 win over the Warhawks on Tuesday, June 21. Both runs were aided by leadoff doubles by Macy Scheideman in both the fourth and sixth innings. She came around to score in the fourth and pinch runner Maci Arjes recorded the final run on an RBI double by Charlie Myers. In fact, Myers had both of the Bulldogs’ RBI in the game. The other run came in on a wild pitch. While H-D was making solid contact with the ball, Kylie Voy had a nine strikeout performance in the circle for H-D. The lone run Voy gave up was on back-to-back doubles by Lexi Jones and Madison Patten in the fourth that momentarily tied the score at 1-all. Voy and the Bulldogs also wiggled out of early trouble as a lead-off error had a runner on second with no outs, but Voy got a lineout to second, a pop foul out to the catcher on a bunt attempt and fly out to left to end the threat. West Fork had a last attempt in the bottom half of the seventh on a lead-off single by Patten, who went 2-for-3 and only one of two Warhawks with three at-bats against Voy who didn’t strikeout, but after a sacrifice bunt put her at second, a fly out to center and a groundout to third ended it. The Warhawks prevented another Bulldog run from scoring in the seventh after a lead-off single by Nadilee Eiklenborg, she was cut down trying to steal second and then a line-out following an error turned into a double play. H-D improved to 8-4 overall with the win while West Fork dropped to 6-8. JENDRO SANITATION will be closed on Monday, July 4, 2016 for Independence Day.

The Wildcats topped off a game suspended by weather earlier this season, 12-2, in five innings and then turned around and won the nightcap 13-2 in a complete game. Humboldt is 10-6 overall and 8-0 in the conference with a commanding lead for the conference title. It showed as a resurgent Bulldog team had their share of troubles getting hits and keeping the Wildcats off of the base paths in both ends of the doubleheader. Nate White, who has been swinging a hot bat of late with a season average of .478, was 0-for-2 in the completed opener despite not coming up to bat in the resumption of the game and went on to hit 2-for-3 in the nightcap. He scored one of the two runs and drove in the other. Brady Shelgren, who improved to 3-1 on the mound for Humboldt, struck out 10 Bulldogs before exiting in the sixth. Lead-off hitter Johnny Guerrero went 3-for-4, including a double, and scored a run in the second game.

HAMPTON CHRONICLE • SECTION A BUSINESS & COMMERCE WEDNESDAY, JUNE 29, 2016 Latimer Community Grocery up for sale BY TRAVIS FISCHER The Latimer Community Grocery is in need of new ownership. After nearly two years of building the store up, owners Anne and Landon Plagge, Travis Pralle, and Darwin Pralle, have started looking for somebody to take control of the small town grocery store. The quartet teamed up in 2014 following the closure of the former grocery store. Determining that Latimer still had a need for local groceries, they renovated an empty building on Main Street and jumped in to the retail business. “We basically gutted the whole thing and rebuilt it,” said Anne Plagge. Once the building was finished, it came time to stock the store. The new managers quickly discovered that the key to success was figuring out what the most commonly needed items were and keeping them on hand. Cold groceries were also a must, with the Plagges and Pralles adding two new coolers to house their cold and frozen goods. “I think the biggest thing we had to think about was learning what sells in the community,” said Anne Pizza, Appetizers & Spirits DOWNTOWN COULTER • 641-866-6771 OPEN TUESDAY - SATURDAY: 4 - CLOSE CARPET CLEANING OUR LOCAL CARPET CARE PROFESSIONALS We move the furniture for you! 641-456-3633 1-866-950-3633 CALL TODAY TO SCHEDULE YOUR CARPET CLEANING • Area Rugs • Furniture • Upholstery • Or any other cleaning task Fire & Water—Cleanup & Restoration Nationally Known—Locally Owned Now that the store is up and running, Anne and Landon Plagge, Travis Pralle and Drawin Pralle are looking to sell Latimer Community Grocery to a new owner. TRAVIS FISCHER/HAMPTON CHRONICLE Plagge. “It’s been a good experience,” said Landon Plagge. “It’s been really successful so far.” With the new store in good shape, the Plagges and Pralles are looking to sell it to somebody with the time and inclination to keep it running. “All of us that are involved are full time employed elsewhere,” said Anne Plagge. “Our goal all along was to get it started and pass it on.” “It’s been interesting, but it’s time,” said Landon Plagge. No inquires have been made yet, but while the owners are in no particular hurry to hand over the reins, they are hopeful that a young entrepreneur will step up and take over the business. Until then, they’ll keep the store open until a willing buyer comes along. “We really want to find the right person,” said Anne Plagge. Plagge says that the store has become a success now that it is up and running. Community response has been positive, with patrons happy to have the convenience of local groceries available. “Businesses in small towns really can’t exist without community support,” said Anne Plagge. FRANKLIN COUNTY COURTHOUSE Civil Court • First Citizens Bank vs. Lucas Smith. Case dismissed without prejudice on June 15. Lance Uhlenhopp has put the Hampton Home Store up for sale. TRAVIS FISCHER/HAMPTON CHRONICLE Hampton Home Store is on the market BY TRAVIS FISCHER The Hampton Home Store is up for sale. Owner Lance Uhlenhopp and his wife, Lindsay, have put the business on the market, hopeful that a new owner will take up the task of providing the Hampton area with household appliances and repairs. The Hampton Home Store has been Uhlenhopp’s place of employment since he was in high school, starting out doing deliveries and service work under the original owner, Ron Core. In 2008, Uhlenhopp went from employee to owner, buying the store from Karen Schmidt. Since then Uhlenhopp has dedicated himself to the appliance business. “You’ve got to come in every day and be ready to go,” said Uhlenhoppp. A typical day in the life, or as close as it gets, involves taking orders, making deliveries, answering questions from customers and making service calls, doing repair work on stoves, washing machines and refrigerators. But now, after 15 years, he’s ready for something new. “I’ve done it for a long time. I need to try something different,” said Uhlenhopp. 13 With a new job on the horizon, Uhlenhopp is putting the Hampton Home Store up for sale, hopeful that a new prospect will grab the opportunity to own and operate a downtown business. Uhlenhopp says that the store does well and keeps him very busy, but that it’s time for him to pass it on to somebody else. “It’s solid, but my heart’s not in it anymore,” said Uhlenhopp. “It would be a good business for a young person.” Uhlenhopp hopes to sell the store this summer, but if no buyers express an interest he will have to close it up. In the event the store does end up closing, Uhlenhopp won’t leave people in need of appliance repairs out in the cold. While his available hours will be limited, he’s willing to continue making service calls on Fridays if needed. In either case, the Hampton Home Store will go out big, with a customer appreciation sale counting down the days until the store’s closure or new management. The sale will help liquidate the store’s inventory, which will either bring down the price of the store, or make it easier if the business has to close. “Regardless if we’re selling or not, we’ll have a sale.” First Bank Hampton named among top 200 healthiest banks First Bank Hampton was recently selected among the top 200 healthiest banks by depositaccounts.com.

Diane Marie Schofield A young woman’s badly decomposed body was found in the trunk of a tan 1966 Rambler in a parking lot at Southwest 20th and Porter near the Des Moines airport on Thursday, July 10, 1975. The body was later determined to be 21-year-old Diane Marie Schofield. An autopsy indicated Schofield died of strangulation. Her body was found fully clothed in a green halter top and blue jeans, but with no shoes. Her hands were tied behind her back and her feet bound with twine near the ankles. She’d been strangled with a strip of knotted cloth. The body showed no other apparent signs of violence. Based on evidence and witness accounts, investigators believe she was killed sometime after 9 p.m. Monday, July 7. Police said robbery didn’t appear to be a motive because Schofield still wore her $200 watch and several turquoise rings. The 1966 Rambler in which her body was found, was registered to the victim. She was last seen alive shortly after 9 p.m. Monday, July 7 at the Apco Service Station, 2324 Forest Ave. An attendant at the station said Schofield bought cigarettes and mentioned she was going to be late for work. Schofield had been employed as a waitress and as a masseuse at several massage parlors in Des Moines. Her last place of employment was the tavern Dave Salem’s Foozin’ ‘n’ Boozin’. Police records showed Schofield, a divorced mother of a five-year-old daughter, was sentenced in January 1975 to five years in the Women’s Reformatory for carrying a concealed .22-caliber pistol but was placed on probation. She’d been arrested on the charge the previous April. The attorney who represented Schofield in her concealed weapon charge said she told him that she’d been asked to be some type of informant relating to drugs. Officers connected with Schofield’s investigation said they’d had no knowledge of her being an informant.

It is difficult for the average citizen to completely understand how a library operates and how many diverse people libraries serve. The Director spends time every month keeping statistics of: how many books were circulated, how many internet uses there were, how many wifi users there were, how many people entered the library building, and whether those numbers are more than last year. Directors also listen to the patron’s comments and take surveys to make sure that the library is providing the service the citizens want.

She will be using fresh, local produce available at the Franklin County Farmers Market. Also beginning July 1, the Franklin County Farmers Market will be sponsoring the Farmers Market Scavenger Hunt. Participation is open to kids in grades K-8. A participation sheet may be picked up from market manager, Barb Ristau. Kids will have to answer the questions, visit with the vendors and find the produce mentioned. Completed sheets need to be turned in to the market manager in order to collect a free fruit or vegetable. The completed sheets will also be sent to the Iowa Dept. of Ag for entry in their drawings. Winners will be contacted through parent contact information. The purpose of the scavenger hunts is to help kids learn more about locally grown fruits and vegetables and the farmers in their community. It is also an opportunity to extend the Healthy Habits program that Franklin County Extension presents and it allows kids to try a fresh produce item that is grown locally. Only one form may be submitted per student, per day. At the Aug. 5 market, in addition to Megan’s demonstration, there will be various activities celebrating National Farmers Market Week, which is the week of Aug. 1 – 6. More than half of Iowa farmland is rented and the percentage of farmland rented has increased over time due to the changing demographics of farmland owners. Iowa farmland cash rental rates decreased overall this past year. Farmland values have also decreased. Iowa State University Extension and Outreach in Franklin County is hosting a farmland leasing meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 10, at 7 p.m., to address questions that land owners, tenants or other interested individuals have about farmland leasing. The meeting will be held at the Youth for Christ building located at 420 4th St. SE in Hampton. The meeting will be approximately 2½ hours in length. Similar meetings are being held across Iowa. Other locations can be found by contacting the Franklin County Extension office or the ISUEO calendar of events at http://www.extension.iastate.edu/ calendar/. Attendees will gain an understanding of current cash rental rate surveys and factors driving next year’s rents such as market trends and input costs. They will learn about types of leases and results of farmland value surveys. Information on calculating rental rates, Farm Bill updates and web-based resources will also be included. A 100-page workbook will be available to purchase for $10 that includes land-leasing information such as surveys, sample written lease agreement and termination forms and many other publications. “Due to changes in commodity markets and government programs farmland owners and tenants have challenging decisions to make, and this meeting provides information to stay up to date on farmland leasing issues,” says Kelvin Leibold, ISU Extension and Outreach Farm and Ag Business Management Specialist. Leibold will be the presenter at the meeting. Registration is free. This program is being sponsored by First Security Bank. Congratulations, Denise!

Safe Minimum Internal Temperatures 145°F Beef, pork, veal and lamb (roasts, steaks and chops) 160°F Ground meat 165°F Poultry (whole, parts or ground) Grilled Hawaiian Ham Sandwich By Amanda Folkens Serves: 1 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1/2 tablespoon seasoning pepper 1 to 2 1/4-inch thick ham slices (about the same thickness as the bread) Cooking spray Pineapple slices (can be fresh or canned) 2 slices sourdough bread Preheat grill for high heat. Mix brown sugar with pepper to create a rub mixture. Using your hands, massage the rub onto both sides of the slices of ham. Ham slices should be completely covered (front and back) with brown sugar mix. Place ham slices on sheet of lightly greased foil, then place onto grill. On separate sheet of greased foil, lay pineapple slices out, uncovered. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until brown caramelization appears around edges of ham and pineapple. Remove ham and pineapple from heat and assemble onto toasted sourdough bread.

Sprinkle both sides of ribs and then rub vigorously. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, place on medium temperature grill and spread yellow mustard and brown sugar on each side of the ribs. Grill for 5 to 8 minutes until each side is slightly browned and caramelized. Remove ribs from grill and slice with sharp knife. Place individual ribs in a crock pot on low. Add one bottle of your favorite barbeque sauce. Let simmer 6 to 8 hours.

Target perch inside the rushes on the north shore or near Farmer’s Beach. Bluegill, fair. Look for sunfish in the reeds on the west side of MacIntosh point. Use bobbers and worms or small minnows.

Lake Smith: Channel catfish, good. Catfish have been on the rocks on the south end. Use bobbers and a piece of cut bait or worms. Largemouth Bass, good.

Bluegills have been caught off docks early in the morning. Lower Pine Lake: Some anglers are catching decent sized crappies with minnows and artificial lures.
