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. The board is getting ready

Branstad visits Franklin County
• The governor talks
water at Beeds Lake
State Park
BY ZACH CLEMENS
Iowa Governor Terry Branstad
visited Franklin County on the afternoon of June 23.
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

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.
The governor ended his visit with
a tour of the park and a visit to the
historic spillway.

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.

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.

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.

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.”

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.
In other business and after discussion by the council and members
of the community, the Latimer City
Council sent a letter of support to
the Franklin County Supervisors in
gathering information in regards to
the possible Prestage hog processing
plant in the county.
The resignation of DelRay Farrar from the Latimer Development
Board was accepted, and Kristi
Everett was appointed to the same
position.
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.
A 2 percent raise was approved
for the water/wastewater manager of
Latimer.
Following the presentations,
no action was taken as the council
would like more information from
EMC to compare the quotes better.
A special meeting will be held in a
couple of weeks to get this resolved.
Getting ready for summer activities, the council approved a street
closure for Federal Street in front
of Pit Row for the afternoon and
evening of August 6. Pit Row plans
to hold a bean bag tournament and
street dance outside of their business. Tom and Jennifer Rooney informed the council that they had
already met with the neighboring
businesses and received no objections to the event.
The Greater Franklin County
Area Chamber of Commerce also
requested street closures, asking
that the streets around Band Shell
Park be closed on August 26 and 27
during this year’s Summerfest to
allow for parking for car show and
tractor parade participants, along

The Board also approved a contract for fourth grade teacher Kayla Klien, who graduated from the

The topic that garnered the most

The council also discussed appointing Dyanne Pralle to be the city
representative to the Franklin County Development Board of Directors.
Currently City Administrator Ron
Dunt serves on the board, acting as a
de facto representative of the city. The
council acknowledged that Dunt’s
expertise is a valuable benefit to the
board, but wondered if it would be
more appropriate to have an elected
representative on the board instead.
The council decided to table

Strike proposed to the Board that
each administrative assistant get an
“equal raise” of $3,000 per year.
“I look at our administrative assistants and they have got a lot on
their plate,” Strike said.
There was discussion on whether
it was still sensible to have an administrative assistant double as the
nurse, because Strike said they have
had a lot more trips to the nurse in
the past two years. Sukup said they
need to keep an eye on it to see if
there is a need for a full-time nurse.
“Bottom line is, we have good
people in our district and we need to
do a better job to make sure they are
compensated,” Strike said.
Sukup brought a motion to approve the raise in pay and the Board
unanimously approved it.
The Board also approved the music department’s trip to Kansas City
for next April. The students have

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.

Coach Ralph Bell’s team had

comeback against the Raiders.
The Cadets used patience working 11 walks against Dunkerton’s
pitching.
Nate Rapp struck out nine,
walked four and gave up only one
hit. Two of the three runs he yielded
were earned.

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-

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.”

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.”

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.”

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.

“The Speedway is a venue that
is known throughout the world
as a place where everyone
in motorsports wants to
claim a victory,” said former
Daytona Speedway President Robin Braig.
The enormous 480-acre motorsports complex
boasts the most diverse schedule of racing on
the globe -- earning it the title of “World Center
of Racing.” Even before NASCAR was founded,
racers would flock to Daytona’s hard-packed
sand beaches to go head-to-head against each
other while trying to avoid the incoming tide.

Stewart came to Sonoma Racing asserting on Friday he
wasn’t having much fun driving a Sprint Cup Series car. That
all changed in Sunday’s Toyota-Save Mart 350 at the 1.99mile road course, where Stewart bulldozed Denny Hamlin
into the outside wall in Turn 11, executing a dramatic last-lap
pass for his first victory since June 2, 2013 at Dover to snap
an 84-race losing skid. In the three years since that victory, a
succession of injuries and a personal tragedy have limited the
three-time champion’s time in a Sprint Cup Series car. After a
pit call by crew chief Mike Bugarewicz put Stewart in the lead
for a restart on Lap 91 of 110, Stewart held the top spot at the
start/finish line for the rest of the race.

HAMPTON – Humboldt, unbeaten in North Central Conference
baseball play, ended the Hampton-Dumont baseball team’s win
streak in completing a suspended game and then finishing off the
sweep of the Bulldogs on Wednesday, June 22.
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.

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

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.

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.”

This is a weekly feature highlighting some of Iowa’s unsolved homicides in the hopes that it
will lead to new tips and potentially help solve cases. The project is a partnership between this
newspaper and other members of the Iowa Newspaper Association.
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.
Diane Marie Schofield
| Age: 21 |
Died: July 4, 1975
Location: Des Moines

Reader of the Week at the Hampton Public Library is Eleanor Stember, age 3. Eleanor is the daughter of
Daniel and Andrea Stember and her
favorite book is “Seven Silly Eaters”
by Mary Ann Hoberman. Eleanor attended storytime this week from out
of town. She is visiting her grandparents Dennis and LeAnn Strother and
Dale Janeen Butson
Library Fun Fact: The Director of the library spends 40 or more
hours a week observing and assisting
patrons in the building. 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.

Office Closed
Starting July 1 and continuing on the first Friday night of every month,
hospital dietitian, Megan Conlon will be presenting a healthy food demonstration with samples and recipes available. 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.

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources’ weekly fishing report is
compiled with information gathered from local bait shops, angler creel surveys and state park staff. For current information, contact the Clear Lake
Fish and Wildlife office at (641) 357-3517.
Beeds Lake: Bluegill, good. Bluegills and a few yellows are being caught
drift fishing/trolling small jigs. This is a good summer technique for beds.
Bluebill Lake: Channel catfish, good. They are biting well on the jetty.
Blue Lake: Water levels in the lake are high but fishing has been fine.
There is a lot of shoreline vegetation submerged. Concentrate on these areas
with weedless lures. To catch bluegills, fish with a worm under a bobber
near vegetation. Some sorting is required because there are a lot of smaller
fish.
Clear Lake: Channel catfish, good. Catfish are spawning near rocks
along the shoreline and deeper rock reefs. The island, Billy’s reef, State Reef
and the Ventura jetties are good places to look. Use cut bait on the bottom
with a slip sinker or on a float in the shallows. Jig fish with a piece of cut
bait, minnows or leeches if trying near the rocks.
Yellow Bass, fair. Yellow bass are scattered after the spawn, move until
you find them.
Walleye, fair. Some legal-size fish are using the longleaf pondweed just
outside of the rush beds in Farmer’s Beach and the Baptist camp. Try fishing
small pockets with a bobber and minnows or leeches. Wader fishing may be
a better option in this area. Fish have also been caught close to docks in the
early morning in two to three feet of water. A few keepers have been caught
