“Our liberties we prize, and our rights we will maintain.”

(USPS 439-500)$1.00

By Dave PearceA pair of adult arrests and sev-

eral juvenile arrests have been made as a result of a recent spike in criminal activity in the area of Poseyville.

According to Posey County Sheriff Greg Oeth, Poseyville resi-dents Andrew J. Helm, 19, and To-bias Paris, 18, have been arrested as a result of unrelated incidents. Oeth said four juveniles have also been arrested and the other arrests are pending.

The rash of burglaries and crim-inal activity in Posey County has increased the importance of the

grant that allowed the hiring of for-mer Indiana State Master Trooper Frank Smith a few weeks ago. Smith, who lives in Poseyville and is familiar with the students at the school through school programs, was instrumental in the arrests.

Smith’s salary comes from a grant with the county’s only con-tribution a sheriff’s car for Smith to drive.

Smith said that it was tips from the public that enabled arrests for most of the string of mostly petty crimes. As a matter of fact, Smith is now in the process of creating a neighborhood watch program in

Poseyville.Paris has been charged with

the vandalism that occurred at the Poseyville Youth Baseball Fields located behind Clem Dassel and Company on Highway 165. Smith said he does not believe that Paris acted alone but other arrests in that particular case had not been made at press time.

With Poseyville Police Officer Doug Saltzman out of commission as the result of a heart attack about three weeks ago, Smith’s help and the presence of a police vehicle in

Poseyville crime spree nets several arrests, more coming

County child was run over by a car on Tuesday at his home at 311 Elk Trail Drive.

According to Posey County Sheriff Greg Oeth, the young boy’s father is facing a second charge of neglect of a dependent follow-ing the incident. The child remains hospitalized in Evansville and although the child’s injuries are extensive, the prognosis for a full recovery appear to be good if there are no further complications. The child is suffering from fractured ribs and damage to his lungs.

According to Oeth, Stephen Kilgore II, who lives in the Elk Trail Drive home, faced charges of child neglect a few months back and was on probation when the latest incident occurred. That in-cident stems from an investigation by the Department of Children’s Services. One of the new warrants issued revoked the probation while another arrest warrant was issued following Tuesday’s incident.

Oeth said that Kilgore was ap-parently preparing to go some-where when Kilgore took the young child and his 2-year-old sis-ter outside and started the vehicle. Oeth indicated that Kilgore had returned to the inside of the home to check and see what was taking detaining his fiancée.

While Kilgore was in the home, the one-year-old got behind the ve-hicle and the 2-year-old daughter somehow managed to get into the car and take the gear out of park and into reverse. The vehicle then proceeded out of the driveway and the vehicle ran over the one-year-old child.

A construction crew happened to be working across the road and the vehicle finally came to rest against one of the crew’s trucks. Members of the construction crew lifted the vehicle off the child who was un-der the rear wheel of the vehicle.

The child remains hospitalized in Evansville and the father re-mains lodged in the Posey County Jail.

By Pam RobinsonIn spite of problems, the Town

of New Harmony still has plenty to celebrate, as usual. It was an-nounced at Thursday’s meeting of the New Harmony Town Council that the Parks Board has received $1,000 from Toyota in response to a grant proposal written by Coun-cilwoman Linda Warrum and New Harmony businessman David Flanders. The funds will be used for landscaping at the new fire and emergency medical services sta-tion.

Later in the meeting, Council-man Joe Straw announced that work is back on schedule for the new fire and emergency medical services station after a brief holdup on a construction permit.

Less savory is the need to take action against unsightly trash on street fronts. At the October 13 meeting, council will vote to send Town Marshal Scott Champlin to serve letters to those listed in vio-lation of the town’s nuisance ordi-nance.

Councilman Don Gibbs initi-ated the action with his comment, “When you drive around, you can see mattresses, old chairs and junk outside houses and in the street—been there, setting there forever, and I think it’s time these people be made to move them. I just think enough’s enough.”

Violators will be required to clean up their property or will be required to pay a stiff fine if the Town of New Harmony is forced to do the clean-up.

A Mount Vernon man has been arrested and charged with sexual misconduct with a minor.

According to court records, Jared Schmitt appeared before judge pro temp Beth McFadin-Higgins late this week after it was determined that there was enough evidence to arrest Schmitt on the charge. Schmitt faces

charges that result from his contact with a 14-year-old Posey County girl.

Schmitt is reportedly out on bail and will face one of the local judges when they return to court this week. Both judges were reportedly out of town at a confer-ence on Friday.

Mount Vernon man faces sexual misconduct with minor charges

By Dave PearceThe Mount Vernon Board of Works met Thursday

evening and conducted several important business items for the City of Mount Vernon.

The board approved the advertisement for Imminent Domain on a small triangular-shaped piece of property that lies on Wolflin Street just north of Second Street. City attorney Beth McFadin-Higgins indicated that a 50-year search had been conducted and it appears that the parcel has been unplatted and there was no owner of record found.

Generally in a case of Imminent Domain, the city would be called upon to make what they would con-sider a “fair” offer on the property and the process would be much longer. But since there is no owner on record, the process can be shortened dramatically and

construction on the Safe Route to School sidewalks can begin to coincide with a storm sewer project near West School.

Mayor John Tucker indicated that both of these proj-ects are being funded by grants received by the city. Construction engineers can work together to make sure that neither of the projects interferes with the other.

In other business:•The Board took under advisement quotes for demo-

lition of buildings on two properties in Mount Vernon. The quotes for work at 1329 Locust Street came in with O’Risky Excavating at $6,300, D.K. Parker at $7,060, and Russell’s Excavating at $13,005, On the prop-erty at 900 E. Third Street, the bids were O’Risky at

Sometimes a small business owner has to make tough choices. Perhaps I should re-phrase that. Every decision made by a small business owner is a tough one, especially in a business where community acceptance and support is paramount to the success of your business.

Last week, one of those “tough” decisions was made. After several months of con-templating, we decided to take our paper to a Wednesday newspaper. Trust me, it was not without a ton of thought and speculation, however, in the end, we decided that it would be best for everyone.

On our Tuesday schedule, the newspaper had to be completely fi nished by 5 p.m. on Monday. With a composition staff consist-ing primarily of three people who do multiple tasks too numerous to mention, that’s quite a mountain to scale. And on Monday morn-ing, the calls came in, without fail, trying to squeeze a last-minute announcement or an ad in that had been forgotten about.

Since the newspaper ultimately belongs to the community, we always hated to say

“no,” to almost anything. But the more times we said “yes,” the more times it meant going through and redoing the newspaper trying to

make room for those little weekly “exceptions.” By get-ting fi nished late on Monday, it put our printers in a bind and forced our delivery driv-er to be out all hours of the night to get your newspaper to your favorite newsstand on

time. That was the only way we could ensure a Tuesday delivery.

After talking with several residents of the community and many of our advertisers, we found out that originally, the Poseyville News was a Wednesday paper. Not until it was com-bined with the New Harmony Times to be-come the Posey County News did it become a Tuesday paper. The general concensus was that a one-day delay was not the end of the world. In fact, several organizations have ex-pressed happiness that when they call in on Monday morning, there is still time to get their “forgotten” item in the paper.

We have a generous group of advertisers. Without their weekly support of your newspa-

per, there would be no newspaper. Although we appreciate each and every one of our sub-scribers, if you multiply the price of a stamp by 52 weeks, you will soon see there is very little margin for paying for anything aside from the postage and part of the printing. Your $33 covers most of that. The remaining rev-enue comes from the advertisers.

You would not believe the generosity of small business owners in Posey County. Ev-ery individual and organization who needs support generally begins with the small busi-ness owner. Very few ever turn away a request for an ad in the yearbook, a request for cookie sales or popcorn sales, a sponsorship for a contestant in a Posey County Fair pageant, a sponsorship for a baseball team or a softball diamond. Whether you have taken the time to realize it or not, the businesses that make up each of our towns in Posey County is the lifeblood of the entire community. Without them, the schools could not operate and out-side functions would be all but non-existent.

These business owners often give selfl essly of their time and money and very few take the time to realize where they would be without these hometown businesses.

The next time you think you can save a few dollars by driving to the big city to pick up an item, ask yourself how many times you have asked the big city businesses for their help in sponsoring a community project. How much of the money you spend there will come back to help keep Posey County people in a job? Exactly how much are you “saving” by tak-ing your business out of Posey County?

This is an effort to publicly thank the busi-nesses who are kind enough to support the events of your community and to thank these fi ne folks, our advertisers, for helping us keep Posey County people informed about the events that are happening in Posey County.

This is our county and we should take pride in it. We should buy locally when we can. If you decide that going someplace else saves you a buck or two now and then, re-member to be sure and try and retrieve that “buck or two” from the business where you spent it the next time your group or organi-zation is needing “local” assistance. Without your help, local businesses cannot survive, But without local businesses, your commu-nity cannot survive.

It is something to think about.

My friend Sam Blankenship says say-ings. He has a saying for most situations. Some of them are apropos. One that often applies in my experience is: “It is not what you don't know that hurts you, but what you know for sure that ain't so.”

Frequently over the years I have had the misfortune to realize the wisdom of this simple adage. Some of my earliest bad decisions were the result of such misguided over confi dence. For exam-ple, believing I could whip my older broth-ers or outsmart my big sister.

As I grew into larger arenas, such as basic training in the Air Force, I had to face the reality of an obstacle course that stubbornly resisted my supposed superiority and train-ing instructors who were unimpressed with my opinions.

Then, in those marvelous 1960's and 1970's, my certitude as to the rightness of the universe came crashing against the shoals of reality. America was not and had not been perfect and neither was or had been I. My serenity from the certain knowledge that all Americans treasured liberty and equality was roughly treated by the facts.

The Civil Rights Movement, the Wom-en's Movement and most of all, the Viet Nam War shattered my reverie. However, I was sure we had learned and grown and would never again unfairly discriminate or make war on people who had done nothing to us. Then we invaded Iraq and decided a

billion Muslims were not entitled to their beliefs or their civil rights.

Now our President has taken the posi-tion that Palestinians who have been driven from their ancient homeland by Jewish people using our political and military might must ask those same Israelis for per-mission to join the United Nations.

This is like asking Chief Black Kettle and his band of Cheyennes to ask Custer for the right to exist. I thought we had learned better.

Did we tell Taiwan to ask China's permis-sion to join the United Nations? How unfair and absurd that would have been.

Are we so afraid of the truth about Israel and Palestine we will not even allow the Palestinian people the right among free and independent nations to seek the redress of their grievances?

What was President Wilson's great dream if not for such a situation where one people without an army, a navy or an air force to defend itself from a powerful aggressor with the latest technology we can supply them, along with nuclear weapons, could seek justice from all other nations?

President Obama, shame on you for po-litical cowardice and shame on all of us! We are Americans. We are the dream of all Mankind. Have we not really learned since we slaughtered Black Kettle and lost 58,000 men in Viet Nam? How can we face our-selves in the stark mirror of our ideals?

Gavel Gamut’s “What Ain’t So”

TRUTH...STRANGERTHANFICTIONBY DAVEPEARCE

As a resident of Mt. Vernon, it is refreshing to hear that Paul Watzlavik is running for mayor. Paul is a small businessman who has had an extensive re-sume of success in the corporate world. Now, he hopes to use his talents to fi nally put a focus on job creation and keeping our current employers here in our community. To avoid a situation like Whirlpool leaving Evans-ville, our mayor needs to have the experience and skills neces-sary to work with business lead-ers. In my humble opinion, Paul is the right person for the job.

I have been battling the system since 2009. I certainly know what pass-the-buck means. I am a victim of a rare breast cancer. The type is Triple Negative. It accounts for only about 15% of all breast cancers. I have been lucky. I have not recurred. A lady in Ft. Wayne, In-diana has not been so lucky. She has been a very sick lady with three children and a hus-band. Triple Negative Breast Cancer does not have a targeted treatment drug to take as the other breast cancers have. We hope everyday for one.

The Indiana Breast and Cervical Can-cer Medicaid Program is a “treatment” pro-gram. Because we have no “magic pill” to take beyond chemotherapy and/or radiation, we Triple Negatives are deemed to be not in “treatment” and told we don’t qualify for the Indiana Breast and Cervical Cancer medicaid. Triple Negatives are more at risk for recur-rence than the other types of breast cancers. We need to see our doctors too. Where is the common sense in this situation? This is a loop-hole that needs to be fi xed.

Robert Deig (my previous district Sena-tor) diligently drafted a senate bill to try and amend the rules to include medicaid for wom-en diagnosed with this subtype of breast can-

cer for which there is no targeted “treatment.” The bill was not called for vote and died in the Indiana General Assembly due to fi scal impact in 2010. Robert Deig then wrote to Gover-nor Daniels asking for assistance since every agency we contacted denied me coverage. I wrote Governor Daniels asking for assistance also. We received no assistance.

My employer laid off 140 people shortly after I was diagnosed including me. I stayed on COBRA coverage for 18 months; how-ever, it expired in January, 2011. Private pay insurance companies won’t sell me insurance because of the cancer diagnosis. I am told I should qualify for Indiana Comprehensive High Risk, but the premium would be near $900.00/mo. I am 63 years old and not eligi-ble for Medicare. I sold my home to help my-self and am currently paying my health bills. If I should need to be hospitalized, I guess all that is left is bankruptcy.

Back in May, I met Mr. John Gregg, Demo-cratic candidate for Governor. I shared with him my story. He took the time to listen to every word I said. He immediately made con-tact with Governor Daniel’s offi ce asking for assistance for me. I have heard nothing from Governor Daniels.

I contacted my now district Senator James Tomes back in June via a letter. Senator Tomes readily responded saying he would see if there was anyway we could get some help on this. I await his reply.

I also contacted Representative Wendy McNamara back in June via a letter. I didn’t hear back from her until a couple of weeks ago. I was very disappointed when I read her letter telling me to apply for Medicaid D, the Healthy Indiana Plan and Indiana Breast and Cervical Cancer screening. I have been through those agencies again and again. Rob-ert Deig had drafted legislation because I couldn’t get help from any of these state agen-cies and here I was being told to contact them again. I phoned Rep. McNamara’s offi ce and spoke with a young Legislative Assistant who seemed concerned about my situation. She was interested in seeing how other states are

handling this situation and said she would make some contacts. After several days of no response, I phoned again to fi nd that she no longer worked for Rep. McNamara. I now was speaking with a different Legislative As-sistant who didn’t recognize my name but knew there was an issue when I mentioned Triple Negative Breast Cancer. He certainly was uninformed and didn’t seem to care to be informed. He asked if I had contacted Senator Tomes. Pass the buck again. I am now back to square one.

As I understand it, The Affordable Care Act is to take care of this in 2014, since it man-dates prevention services as part of standard coverage, and would provide coverage for standard follow up care for cancer patients but until 2014, Triple Negative Breast Cancer vic-tims are being hung out to die.

Saint Philip Catholic School has been asked to be a Pacesetter for the United Way of Posey County Cam-paign for the third year in a row. We are honored to be asked because we think it’s very important to support the United Way. We know we have families that have benefi ted from the resourc-es United Way has to offer and what better way for us to support them than to support United Way. As a Catholic School, it is part of our mission to ensure that our students have the values for a successful Christian life. Being a Pacesetter for

United Way gives us an op-portunity to show our com-munity and our students how we support causes out-side of ourselves and hope-

fully instills in our students the value of giving to those in need.

We are grateful that Mt. Ver-non has a contested mayoral race this year. This town has been dominated for a long time by a one-party system that has fueled complacency and nepo-tism. Our decision to support Paul Watzlavik has to do with the fact that we believe he is qualifi ed to lead, has the vision to make Mt. Vernon a commu-nity that we can all be proud of, and possesses the energy to car-ry out the potential that he sees in the place we call "home."

It is my privilege to support Jennifer Shell as an excellent can-didate for the prestigious Clerk-Treasurer position in Poseyville. Jennifer demonstrates all the qual-ities and skills needed in the fi eld of clerk-treasurer. She is an inte-gral part of the Indiana League of Municipal Clerks and Treasurers (ILMCT) and as Deputy Clerk-Treasurer of Princeton, Indiana has shown outstanding leadership.

Jennifer has attended many in-structional classes, district and state meetings, and conferences sponsored by ILMCT and the In-diana Association of Cities and

Towns. She gives total support to the league and its related orga-nizations. While I was President of ILMCT, Jennifer co-chaired our mentor program of training new clerks and continued that re-sponsibility until she moved from Gaston. We are a better unit be-cause of individuals like Jennifer who are dedicated and give sacri-fi cially of their time to our league. Jennifer has earned her Indiana Accredited Municipal Clerk and Certifi ed Municipal Clerk desig-nations and is working toward her Masters.

There are a myriad of intricacies

and details in the clerk-treasurer position that a person coming from non-government labor would not know. For the Town of Poseyville to have an experienced candidate at hand is a tremendous asset. Jennifer has been handling the day to day workings of the offi ce for six years. Her experience will as-sist the Town Council to continue to progress and grow in the many challenges that they face.

Congratulations Poseyville, for stepping up to the plate and vot-ing for the best candidate – Jen-nifer Shell.

By Valerie WerkmeisterA two-car “collision” on

Railroad Street in Poseyville got the attention of many lo-cal residents last Wednesday. Rescuers from Poseyville, Wadesville and Smith Town-ship Fire Departments were called in to work the acci-dent that caused fi ve indi-viduals to be trapped and injured inside the vehicles. The Posey County Sheriff’s Department helped direct traffi c.

If the lights and sirens from multiple fi rst-respond-ing agencies weren’t enough to draw spectators outside to sneak a peek at the ac-tion, then the sounds of the Air Evac Lifeteam helicop-ter did. It’s not everyday that a helicopter lands in Poseyville to help lift and carry the wounded to the hospital. Hopefully, it will be a long time before they must return.

Thank goodness it was all just a test. The mock ac-cident was staged as life-like as possible to simulate a hor-rifi c crash scene in which multiple agencies must work together to try to save lives.

The training event was fa-cilitated by Poseyville Fire Department (PFD) and also included volunteers from Posey County EMS.

PFD Assistant Chief, Jeff Droege, was pleased by how well the event turned out, despite the short number of volunteers that were able to attend the training event.

“It was really good train-ing for a mass casualty type event,” Droege explained.

The departments benefi t from this type of training prior to the start of their “busy season” or winter months when there is a greater chance for hazardous road conditions that can fos-ter additional accidents.

Droege appreciated assis-tance from other agencies to help make the training event

successful. He also noted that without the help of Dan Perdue from Universal Sal-vage with the donation of the two junk cars, the train-ing would not have been possible. Cadet from the Wadesville Fire Department served as the patients for the event. They were treated to a donated Subway platter from Subway in Poseyville while creating cuts and abra-sions that would appear like real wounds. Outdated medi-cal supplies were donated by Keith Kahre of St. Mary’s Hospital in Evansville.

Tri-County Equipment Co., Inc. allowed the use of their forklift to help set the junk cars into position to simulate a collision.The Air Evac Lifteteam donated their time and use of the he-licopter. During the event, the pilot spoke to curious on-lookers and gave tours of the smaller-than-you-think helicopter. The back of the helicopter holds just enough room for the patient and paramedic.

In addition to training events like this one, PFD in-tends to do a mock accident at North Posey High School

next spring. The department works in conjunction with S.A.D.D (Students Against Drunk Driving) around Prom time.

Anyone that would like to see the Poseyville Fire Department vehicles, equip-ment or meet the volunteers

will have the opportunity to do so during their open house on Sunday, October 9 from 1 p.m. – 4 p.m. Visitors will be able to see the Survive Alive house, meet Sparky the fi re dog, participate in a Chinese auction and enjoy popcorn and other refreshments.

Blood drive for Posey County will be Oct. 2, 2011 from 7:30 - 11:30 a.m. at St. Francis Xavier Catho-lic Church located at 10 N. St. Francis Avenue in Poseyville.

October is National Liver Awareness Month and the American Red Cross re-minds blood donors that or-gan transplant patients often rely on donated blood. Liver transplant patients often require several blood trans-fusions during surgery. A patient at a hospital served by the Red Cross recently underwent a liver transplant and received more than 60 units of red blood cells, 100 units of plasma and 13 units of platelets.

Liver transplants are the second most common trans-plant, following kidney transplants. According to the Organ Procurement and Transplant Network, 6,291 people in the United States received liver transplants in 2010.

There are a variety of ways to help protect your liver from disease. The American Liver Foundation offers some simple tips: eat a healthy diet low in fatty foods, limit alcohol intake, manage medications appro-priately and limit contact with toxins. For more infor-mation, visit liverfounda-tion.org.

All blood types are need-ed, especially O negative, B negative, and A negative. Type O negative, the uni-versal blood type, can po-tentially be transfused to pa-tients with any blood type.

Simply call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or visit redcrossblood.org to make an appointment or for more information. A blood donor card or driver’s license, or two other forms of identifi cation are required

at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental permission in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are generally in good health may be eli-gible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Governed by volunteers and supported by giving in-dividuals and communities, the American Red Cross is the single largest supplier of blood products to hospi-tals throughout the United States. While local hospital needs are always met fi rst, the Red Cross also helps en-sure no patient goes without blood no matter where or when they need it. In addi-tion to providing nearly half of the nation’s blood sup-ply, the Red Cross provides relief to victims of disaster, trains millions in lifesaving skills, serves as a commu-nication link between U.S. military members and their families, and assists victims of international disasters or confl icts.

The New Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art presents PullSpeedCrashPunch: An Exhibition About Violence October 1 through November 12. A reception for the artists will be held from 4 to 6 p.m. Saturday, October 1, and is free and open to the public.

PullSpeedCrashPunch: An Exhibition About Violence pres-ents the artwork of Antonio

Martinez, Doreen Maloney, and Regina Mamou. These three regional artists are concerned with the nature of violence and how it appears in day-to-day life. In the show, curator Alison Erazmus comments on how, through the inundation of violent images in fi lm, TV, and the internet, we become anesthetized to the violence in them. According to Erazmus, the artists appear in the work they produce, exploring “self-infl icted sensations of violence in order to challenge the violent spectacles brought into their lives through new media technologies.” The videos and photographs in the exhibition explore the dangers and an-ticipated pain from car and motorcycle crashes; the jolting im-

ages from martial arts, cagefi ghting and rodeos; and the angst felt from memories of suffering and illness.

Mamou, a Chicago-based artist and Fulbright scholar, re-ceived a B.F.A. from the Rhode Island School of Design, and an M.F.A. from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has exhibited around the world, including in Greece at the Ko-dra Visual arts Festival and at the Makan Art Space in Amman, Jordan in a project called The Utopian Airport Lounge.

Martinez, an assistant professor of inter media arts at South-ern Illinois University Carbondale, received his B.F.A. from Creighton University and an M.F.A. from East Carolina Uni-versity. He recently exhibited his experimental video art proj-ect, Near the Egress, in several national and international fi lm and video festivals in Portland, Oregon; London, and at Optica- Festival Internacional de Videoarte in Barcelona, Spain.

Maloney, an associate professor of new/inter media at Uni-versity of Kentucky, received a BA in German and Russian from Indiana University and several masters degrees, includ-ing an MFA from University of Wisconsin, Madison. Maloney has exhibited internationally, including in the Dallas Center for Contemporary Art, the Pompidou Center in Paris, France, and in the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, in Havana, Cuba.

The New Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art is located at 506 Main Street in New Harmony, Indiana and is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and Sunday noon until 4 p.m. For more information, call 812/682-3156 or visit www.nhgallery.com.

By: RIG MinistriesFamed preacher poet Edwin Markham

captured the essence of Christ like living and giving in relating the story of Conrad the Cobbler. In his classic work “The Shoes of Happiness,” Markham states that saintly Conrad has a vivid dream in which he was told Christ would visit his humble cobbler shop on a certain day. The dream was so real that Conrad was certain Jesus would indeed come. So he decorated his simple shop with boughs of green and prepared breads and cakes to serve the Master. Early on the morn-ing that Jesus was to visit, two of Conrad’s friends came by, and Conrad shared the dra-matic dream with them. They wanted to wait for the Master with him because they knew that if anyone in the village would ever have visit from Jesus, it would be kindly Con-rad. However, Conrad told them the Lord has said specifi cally that he wanted to visit with the cobbler alone. “His friends went home; and his face grew still as he watched for the shadow across the still; He lived all the moments over and over, When the Lord should enter the lowly door. The knock, the call, the latch pulled up, the lighted face, the offered cup. He would wash the feet where the spikes had been; he would kiss the hands where the nails went in; and then at last he would sit with him and break the bread as the day grew dim. But the Master did not come. Instead, a begger knocked on the door and asked for a pair of shoes. Conrad was irri-tated by the interruption, but his kindly heart would not let him ignore the need of the old man. He hurriedly made the shoes and gave them to the poor begger, rushing him off so he would not interrupt or prevent the visit of the Great Guest. A littler later, another knock sounded, and Conrad was sure this was the Master. But it was only a hungry old woman carrying a heavy load of sticks. She asked for food, which Conrad reluctantly gave her.

The only food he had was what he had pre-pared for the Master. With each bite, Con-rad’s heart sank. He feared he would have nothing left for his Lord, and he secretly hopes she would leave a little. However, she devoured every crumb. Then the old women asked if Conrad would help her to the edge of the village because her load was heavy. He did not want to leave the shop, but again the cobbler could not turn down the frail old women. He wrote a hasty not and put it on the door, hoping the Master would not miss it and leave. When Conrad returned, the note was still there, undisturbed, so he knew the Master had not yet come. Late in the evning, there was a fi nal knock on the cobbler’s door. Conrad heart leapt within him, knowing at last this would be the Master. But when he opened the door, he found a lost and crying child. “Mister, I’m lost,” the little lad cried. “Will you please help me fi nd my home?” Conrad sighed, gatherd the little tot in his arms, retrieved his note from the wastebas-ket and again placed it on his shop door. He took the lost lad far across the village to his worried mother. Rushing back, he hoped he had not missed the Master and then saw the well-used note still unmoved. Conrad knew Jesus had not yet made His visit. As the mid night hour approached, Conrad knew not the Master would not appear at his door. It really had only been a dream. The kind cobbler’s heart was broken and in his crushing sad-ness, Conrad fell to his knees crying,

“Why is it, Lord, that Your feet delay?” “Did You forget that this was the day?” Then, soft in the silence, a voice he heard, “Lift up your heart, for I have kept my word.”

Three times I came to your friendly door; Three times my shadow was on your fl oor.

“I was the beggar with the bruised feet, I was the woman you gave to eat; I was the child on the homeless street.”

A sailor in the British navy believed in doing his best, whatever the task.

Finding himself on KP duty, and facing a big pile of potatoes, he peeled them with the care of a sculptor carving in wood.

Cooks on the ships he served began to boast about his smooth spuds. His reputa-tion spread throughout the shipping lanes.

Today he’s supplying select potatoes, peeled to perfection, to the best restau-rants in London, and prospering.

work at it with all your heart…you will receive an inheritance form the Lord as a reward.”

•An anonymous donor was thanked for the new striping at the Murphy Park basketball court.

•Street Commissioner Bobby Grider an-nounced that leaves were scheduled for pick up the fi rst or second week in October once the wagon is repaired. The announcement prompted Councilman Don Gibbs to empha-size that the street department would need to purchase a good used chipper truck at the fi rst of the year since the late 1980’s model used now is costing a lot to operate.

•The lease with the county for housing the Posey County EMS vehicle at the Tree of Life was discussed. It was noted that the county made its last payment in May and that cred-

ible sources have said the county had decided to permanently stop the payments. Council will be asking for a letter of intent from the county that is necessary for the auditing trail.

•Council approved the request of Scout-master Tim Wiley and Boy Scout Troop #386 to do eight hours of community service to help with upkeep of Maple Hill Cemetery.

•Veolia Environmental Services presented a proposal for renewal of their trash pickup services with the town. It was stated that the company had made only one increase dur-ing the past three years. The new three-year contract would keep rates the same the fi rst year and raise rates either by three percent or according to the consumer price index dur-ing the second and third years. The contract would include trash pickup at the cemetery and the replacement of damaged trash cans.

•Resident Gail Norton was reappointed to the Ford Home Board.

•Council approved making Internet access available at the offi ces of the Bicentennial Commission.

•Councilwoman Karen Walker noted that new signs have been placed for the public re-strooms at Ribeyre Gymnasium.

•Councilman Joe Straw reported that the town sold the old police car for $3,000.

The Red Wagon Res-taurant and Bar, formerly known as the Feed Mill Res-taurant in Poseyville, is one of the Pacesetter Companies for the 2011 United Way campaign. They ran their

United Way campaign early and were recognized at the United Way of Posey County Campaign Kick-off Break-fast held on September 15th. Their employees, along with the employees of the other

Pacesetters help the United Way campaign get off to a great start!

The Poseyville Feedmill, LLC has just recently an-nounced that they did not renew their licensing agree-ment with the Feedmill Res-taurant in Morganfi eld, Ken-tucky. As a result, they have changed their name to the Red Wagon Restaurant and Bar, according to Jane Reis-ing, a managing member of the LLC.

However, though the menu has changed, the same management, personnel and great service will con-tinue. “Our popular Sunday brunch and weekend buf-fets will also continue,” said

Brent Tharp, the restaurant’s general manager. “We look forward to allowing our cre-ative and talented team of employees to provide a more varied and healthy selection of food for our patrons,” he added.

The Red Wagon opened in Poseyville as the Feed Mill Restaurant in November of 2008, offering a menu pursu-ant to a licensing agreement with the Feedmill Restaurant based in Morganfi eld, Ken-tucky. The facility has seat-ing for 400 patrons, includ-ing a full service bar and a banquet room that seats 100 people. In addition, they of-fer a full service banquet and catering service with menus

that can be customized to fi t any event or budget.

This year’s goal is $640,000. Funds raised in the United Way Cam-paign go to support 20 local agencies and more than 75 programs that provide ser-vices to the people of Posey County, including 2-1-1, the easy-to-remember num-ber to call for information and assistance about needs and resources, and the new prescription drug discount program. For more informa-tion about services provided by the United Way of Posey County or volunteer oppor-tunities available, call 838-3637 or email uwposey@sbcglobal.net.

Drainage Board to meet October 10

One of the best neighbors in the Town of New Harmony doesn’t even live there. A native of Washington, Indiana, Bobby Grider grew up in Crossville, Illinois, and today serves as Crossville’s fi re chief although he lives now in Carmi, Illinois. Grider is best known, however, as New Har-mony’s gas superintendent, water superintendent and street commis-sioner.

He’s been a town employee since November 2002 when a co-worker in Crossville, Judy Davis, herself a New Harmony resident, convinced Grider the Town of New Harmony needed

him as gas superin-tendent. The town has needed him

more and more, adding the roles of water superintendent and street com-missioner. New Harmony relies on Grider’s expertise and his certifi ca-tions and licenses to keep the town running smoothly.

His certifi cations include a gas operator license that meets federal regulations and a water treatment plant operator license (Grade WT3) in addition to a pesticide applicator license to spray for mosquitoes.

He and his three employees—part-timer Cody Peerman (20) and full-timers Caleb Harvey (23) and Danny Link (21)—are most noticed during New Harmony’s harvest fes-tival, Kunstfest, and Christmas in New Harmony, held annually the fi rst

weekend in December. He and his crew decorate the light poles, help vendors with their set up and manage the barricades for street closings.

Concerning his crew, Grider em-phasizes, “They’re very good help. They make my job a lot easier.”

In his free time, Grider enjoys camping with his wife of 23 years, Joyce. Just this year, they bought a pull-behind camper, their headquar-ters this week during vacation.

Bobby and Joyce enjoy time with their son Drew (21) and daughter Chelsea (19), both criminal justice majors. Chelsea’s 21-month-old son Brexton is their fi rst grandchild and receives their undivided attention and love.

Bugtown, about half-way between Poseyville and New Har-mony on Highway 68. The extra set of eyes and hands have been critical as the Posey County Sheriff’s Department has been extremely busy.

“We had a few things already going on in the Poseyville area before Offi cer Saltzman suffered his illness so it is hard to say whether there is a direct correlation between his ill-ness and the criminal activity,” Oeth said. “Most of the things started out as mischief kinds of events and that led into the break-ins of some businesses and things being taken out of unlocked cars.”

There have been a number of cases being worked by Oeth, Detective Tom Latham, along with Smith. They include any-thing from theft of items from cars to graffi ti and vandalism at the local ball fi eld to more serious matters such as breaking into residences.

Oeth confi rmed that in one business burglary, Doug’s Stan-dard, a handgun was taken but the handgun has been recov-ered and is now in police custody. The suspect there is also 17, very near their 18th birthday. The weapon was recovered in a home and some “bait money” has been recovered, as well.

“Given time with the lab testing that has been done, I think time will help answer several questions,” Oeth said. Test re-sults are expected to take four to six weeks to be completed.

Oeth also said he is supportive of Posey County Prosecutor Travis Clowers in his attempts to have waived to adult court these individuals who some are just a few weeks away from their eighteenth birthday.

“They want to do big boy crimes so I believe they should face big boy penalties,” Clowers was quoted as stating re-cently. He will get no argument from anyone at the Posey County Sheriff’s Department.

Oeth said his department was criticized by some in the Poseyville area for not giving the town as much attention as some individuals felt they should. But Oeth said that unless these folks were up all night, they often were not aware of what was being done in the city not only to curtail the crimes but to prevent others.

Oeth said walking street patrols were done throughout Poseyville during recent nights and that the streets were also patrolled late at night by Smith in his patrol car. Several pri-vate citizens have also begun to take an interest in the safety of community residents.

Oeth said several arrests have already been made and the charging has not completely been done in some cases but he believes that all the open cases in the Poseyville area have been solved at the current time. Oeth believes that some of the arrests will help solve some crimes in other communities, some even in Evansville.

“It has been a whirlwind out there,” Oeth said. “We have made arrest of four-wheelers and we believe there are con-nections with some other things.”

But with Smith living in Poseyville and equipped with a vehicle, response to a recent alarm at the Dollar General Store in Poseyville came within two minutes.

NPHS Class of 1976 weekend reunion set

The University of Evansville is proud to an-nounce that the following local students recently joined sororities:

Katie Schmidt of Mount Vernon, who joined Chi Omega and is studying Pre Physical Therapy

Kate Higgins of Mount Vernon, who joined Zeta Tau Alpha and is studying Nursing

Josie Brown of Wades-ville, who joined Zeta Tau

Alpha and is studying Mu-sic Therapy

Jessie Earle of Evans-ville, who joined Chi Omega and is studying Biochemistry

Emily Jolly of Evans-ville, who joined Chi Omega and is studying Pre Physical Therapy

Tiffany Winternheimer of Evansville, who joined Phi Mu and is studying Psychology

These students offi cially

became new members on September 12 after a weeklong recruitment process that allowed po-tential new members to learn about Greek life and discover what each chap-ter has to offer. They are among 122 UE students who joined sororities at the conclusion of Fall 2011 recruitment.

“The University of Evansville Greek system is one of the best in the coun-

try. Outstanding scholar-ship, remarkable service, vitality, and friendship are the foundational pieces that make our program exceptional,” said Dana Clayton, UE vice presi-dent for student affairs and dean of students. “The men and women who be-long to our fraternities and sororities are some of the highest profi le leaders on campus, both in and out-side the classroom. Our

Greek students play a major role in shaping the campus community.”

The University of Evansville’s Greek system consists of six national fraternities, four national sororities, and one local sorority. Approximately 28 percent of the Uni-versity’s undergraduate students participate in Greek life. Together, they maintain a combined GPA that surpasses the campus

average. Each year, the Greek community raises more than $50,000 for charity and performs more than 9,000 hours of com-munity service.

“By joining Greek or-ganizations, students be-come part of a solid legacy of leadership and schol-arship,” Clayton added. “Going Greek is an expe-rience that will serve stu-dents well beyond their college years.”

Students and Their Teach-ers Compete for Cash Prizes Up to $1,000.

U.S. high school students and their teachers are invited to participate in the Bill of Rights Institute’s sixth an-nual Being an American Es-say Contest.

The largest contest of its kind in the country, the Be-ing an American Essay Con-test explores the Founding principles outlined in the Constitution. The contest is administered by the Bill of Rights Institute, a non-profi t educational organization in the Washington, D.C. area devoted to educating young people about the Constitu-tion and Founding princi-ples. The 2011-2012 contest is sponsored by the History Channel.

“This contest is unique in that it gives students the op-portunity to think about the important Founding prin-ciples communicated in our Constitution,” said Dr. Jason Ross, Bill of Rights Institute Vice President of Education Programs. “This context is vital to helping students see their Founding principles as a meaningful part of the American experiment of self-government.”

Specifi cally, students are asked to share their thoughts on the Constitution by an-swering the following ques-tion: “How does the Consti-tution establish and maintain a culture of liberty?”

The top three student win-ners from each of the fi ve geographical regions will be awarded cash prizes of $1,000 (First Place), $500 (Second Place), and $250 (Third Place). Teacher spon-sors for each student winner will also receive a cash prize of $100.

“The contest not only honors and awards sponsor-ing teachers, but also equips them with free lesson plans and other supplemental ma-

terials that meet state and national academic standards so they can easily incorpo-rate the essay contest into their classrooms. The Con-test is really a tribute to the excellent work teachers do in the important task of civic education,” said Ross.

Over 80,000 students have participated in the es-say contest since it began in 2006.

“We are pleased to sup-port the Bill of Rights In-stitute’s Being an American Essay Contest,” said Dr. Libby O’Connell, SVP, Cor-porate Outreach and Chief Historian, History Channel. “The contest encourages students to think critically and truly makes the past rel-evant in their lives today.”

By Valerie Werkmeister Rain, rain, go away is

a mantra many are saying after this weekend’s soggy Poseyville Autumnfest event. Mother Nature did little to help local organi-zations earn much-needed funds. The deluge of rain, about four inches worth, kept crowds away and forced most attractions to close shop and head home early. It’s too bad umbrel-las and rain suits weren’t a featured sale item because someone surely could have capitalized on that venture.

The Poseyville Kiwanis made the decision to post-pone Sunday’s parade to next Sunday, October 2 at 3 p.m. Looking on the bright side, perhaps that will give any procrastinators the op-portunity to devote more time to decorate their fl oat.

The weekend wasn’t a to-tal bust though. There was a short reprieve from the rain on Saturday which allowed crowds to visit food booths, participate in raffl es and vis-it a few of the other booths. The rain even held off long enough for the Evansville Fire Performers to conduct their show.

While most organizations report that they were able to do make up some of their Saturday sales during the “dry time”, all of them re-ported dismal losses due to

Sunday’s rain out.The Jr. Women’s Club

hoped to continue to sell Kuchens on Monday and they decided to continue the baby photo contest this week. Photos of all the ba-bies were taken back to Hirsch’s and will be on display all week. The baby with the most money in the can will win. A winner will be drawn and contacted on Saturday so that they may participate in the parade on Sunday.

Luck-of-the-draw win-ners from St. Francis Xavier Church were drawn and winners will be published in upcoming weeks of the Posey County News.

The best bakers in the Kiwanis’ sponsored cherry recipe bake-off were also named. First place went to Mary Korff , Fern East won second place and Andrew Hannah placed third. Po-sevyille Christian Church raffl e winners included Christina Tepool, Julia Coulter, Tricia Murphy and Nancy York. York also won a $100 consolation prize. The church will most likely continue with games and prizes during the Poseyville Town-wide yard sale this Saturday.

Brianna Perry was crowned Miss Autumnfest and was also chosen as Miss Congeniality. She is

the daughter of Dave and Luann Perry of Poseyville. Morgan Pardon was chosen as the fi rst runner-up. She is the daughter of Troy and Dee Pardon of Poseyville. Second runner-up was Bay-lee Pate who is the daughter of Cindy and Dennis Wright and Chet and Chris Pate of New Harmony.

Mia Schmitt was crowned as Autumnfest Princess and was also chosen as Miss Congeniality. She is the daughter of Tim and Donna Schmitt of Poseyville. Jeri Ann Neuffer was chosen as fi rst runner-up. She is the daughter of Dawn and Jerry Neuffer of Wadesville. Ari-onna Collins, daughter of Randy and Jennifer Collins of New Harmony, was cho-sen as second runner-up.

The sponsors for the event included CSB State Bank, First Bank, Little Crazy Dai-sy and The Next Step Dance Studio. Embroidery Direct, Award World and Kiwanis also helped provide gifts for each girl. Frey Brothers Pro-duce helped provide decora-tions for the stage.

As winners are chosen from St. Francis Quilters raffl e, the Jr. Women’s baby photo contest and others that may have been missed due to the weekend weather, results will be published in upcoming issues of the Posey County News.

One of the new attactions this year was the pumpkin carving contest sponsored by the Jr. Women’s Club. First place winner for the most unique carving was awarded to makenzie Helfert for her spider carving. Second place was awarded to Tyler Simpson. First place winner for the scariest carving was awarded to Makayla Helfert. Ezekiel and Elijah Shephard received second place in that category. Photo by Valerie Werk-meister

By Dave PearceThe North Posey Vikings led only once

during Friday night’s homecoming game against once-beaten Forest Park. However, it was when it counted as the Vikings man-aged to come from behind and add an excit-ing 34-33 win to their resume.

While the Vikings were without the ser-

vices of starting senior fullback (and home-coming king, incidentally) Jourdan Cox, the Rangers appeared to have an injury concern of their own as their all-state wide receiver Ben Braunacher did not play in the second period after what appeared to be a tender ankle. But the Vikings, too, are familiar with tender ankles as junior running back Wes

Harness continues to struggle with a tender ankle. He also sat out some of Friday night’s big Pocket Athletic Conference game.

Braunacher wasted little time showing why he has been tabbed as one of the best in the area, if not in the state. Just a minute-and-a-half into the game, the was on the receiving end of a Miles Leonard pass and

took it in from 39 yards out after Nick Nei-dig’s defensive effort was ever so slightly mistimed.

But the Vikings came right back and drive the ball down the field and Harness scored on a 25-yard run just two minutes later.

But with 4:20 remaining in the first pe-riod, the Rangers put another one on the board when Leonard called his own number and went in from two yards out.

The first two-thirds of the second period was a defensive struggle before the Rangers finally got on the board when Josh Voegel took it in from one yard out but the 2-point conversion failed. Still the Rangers were ahead by 19-7 with 3:45 remaining in the first half.

But again, the Vikings were up to the challenge and Harness again got the call, taking it in from five yards out with 2:22 remaining in the half. But that proved to be too much time as the Rangers put the final score of the half on the board with just 22 seconds remaining, scoring on a 5-yard pass play that left the Vikings staring at a 26-13 half-time deficit. Most Las Vegas oddsmak-ers would have put their money on the Rangers as they took a lead into the locker room and an offense that the Vikings had not been able to stop.

“For some reason, we just had a little trouble adjusting to what they were doing throwing the ball,” Gengelbach said. “It was just one of those things we had to work through.”

But the Vikings came out of the half-time locker room with a new attitude and a new spirit as they marched the kickoff down the field and in a little over a minute into the second half, Wes Harness scored on a 15-yard run to pull the Vikings back to within 26-19 as the two-point conversion try was

By Steve JoosWhat proved to be the undoing of the

Mount Vernon football team in Friday’s game at Boonville?

Turnovers.There’s that word again.The same thing which proved to be the un-

doing of the Cats at Mount Carmel and Vin-cennes earlier in the year did them in again Friday in Warrick County, as the Pioneers took advantage of three Wildcat giveaways and took down Mount Vernon 24-14 in Big Eight Conference play.

What did coach Paul Maier think the dif-ference was between victory and defeat for the Cats?

“Turnovers,” Maier said. “We moved the ball well the opening drive of the game, we fumbled a pitch on an option and give them the ball on the 20-yard line. The score at halftime should have been 14-7, or 14-0 depending on that. We had two fumbles, we had an interception, but the interception was my fault. We can’t turn the ball over and win football games. We lost two fumbles and had an interception, we lose by two scores. There you go.”

The Cats were clicking at the outset and in the second quarter, when they scored all of their points and took a brief 17-14 advantage that ran into the third quarter, when Colton Stewart capped a long Boonville drive with a one-yard touchdown run.

Mount Vernon was also driving for a po-tential game-tying score when Zack Arrigo stepped in front of a the Mount Vernon re-

ceivers, picked off Craig Isaac’s pass and galloped untouched 60 yards to cap off the scoring and put the Pioneers well out in front of the Cats.

“We moved the ball well all night,” Maier said. “We had them off-balance with their run game and the passing game. We were able to

be balanced and attack multiple angles. We were really rolling and really clicking. Now, when they got a lead and when it got late in the game, it got to a point where we got to be one-dimensional and that’s a tough place to play from.”

Boonville began and ended the scoring by

cashing in on Mount Venron miscues.The game was just a little less than 90 sec-

onds old when the Cats fumbled and Boon-ville recovered at the Mount Vernon 25-yard line. Five plays later, Stewart took it in from

Turnovers keep Wildcats out of winner’s circle at Boonville

By Steve JoosIt rained on everyone’s parade Saturday

at Thunderbolt Pass, but Maggie Camp didn’t seem to mind.

The North Posey senior shot a 77, fir-ing a 35 on the back nine at Thunderbolt Pass, and finished as the top qualifier from a non-advancing team at the Evansville Regional.

Camp shaved seven strokes off her score after making the turn with a 42 on the soggy Thunderbolt Pass course. Her teammates didn’t fare as well, as the Lady Vikings came in fifth with a score of 359, four strokes better than Evansville Section-al champion Memorial (363).

The other regional golfer from Posey County, Mount Vernon’s Kendyl Bourne, just couldn’t buy a break and finished with an 89 (44-45).

“I rained hard for the first three holes,” Mount Vernon coach Dave Bell said. “It was that way for everybody, but Kendyl just couldn’t get a break. Her round wasn’t horrible, but it wasn’t what she wanted to shoot. She made a few pars, but couldn’t string anything together. I was proud of her. She has been a very good player over the last four years and I’m very proud of her and what she was able to do during her career.”

Bourne shots 44 at the turn and was hop-ing that things would turn around on the back side, but she continued to be snakebit after making the turn and finished with an 89.

Camp, on the other hand, had another rough opening round, but just like she did

in the Sectional (under much better weather conditions), she recovered on the back nine for a 42-35-77 and the top score among the individuals, one stroke better than Darrah Holder of North Davies (78) and Carly Waggoner of Vincennes Rivet (80).

All three girls will join the team qualifi-ers this weekend at The Legends Course in Franklin Friday for the IHSAA state meet.

She was also second overall, four strokes in back of Castle’s Kayla Kattherhenry (73). Holder also tied North’s Lauren Byers for third overall as both girls shot 78s.

As for the rest of the Lady Vikings, their day at Thunderbolt Pass was a lot like their day at the Sectionals, up and down.

Allison Koester picked things up on the back side, just like Camp, whittling five stroke off her score to finish with an 81 (43-38), just missing a trip to the state finals, while Kendall Crowder took three strokes off her score and ended with a 99 (51-48). Taylor Patton, on the other hand, wasn’t as fortunate. After shooting a 49 on the front side, Crowder added four strokes to her score and came in with a 49-53-102. Shelby Ackerson shot a 114 (57-57).

Castle won the meet with a 324, seven strokes better than runner-up North (331), while Jasper was a stroke back at 332.

The top three at Thunderbolt Pass were well ahead of the rest of the pack. Rivet was a distant fourth with a score of 355, four strokes ahead of the Lady Vikings. New Albany was seventh with 383, fol-lowed by Gibson Southern (388), Corydon Central (394), Floyd Central (396), North Knox (400) and Springs Valley (425).Maggie Camp starts her swing during a recent Viking win.

snuffed out.But again, the Rangers had an answer but it was not nearly so

quick as the Vikings seemed to shut down the air attack. Dakota Geyer scored on a 21-yard run with 7:26 remaining in the third pe-riod. The Rangers would not score again.

But the rain began falling early in the second half and got worse was the game progressed. The flag, which showed no movement during the playing of the National Anthem, stood almost straight out to the north as the wind and rains pounded the field and emptied most of the stands on both sides of the field.

“It was a tale of two halves,” veteran North Posey skipper Carl “Joe” Gengelbach said after the game. “”We have just not been in sync in the first half for whatever reason. I got after them a little bit at half-time and they did respond. I just told them to play and have some fun like they did last week. I know there was more pressure on them tonight. We had worked out way back in (the conference race) and everybody was talking about that. We just told them to play like they are capable of playing.”

Across the field, the Vikings were inspired and with 2:57 remain-ing in the third period, an ailing Colton Martin, filling in for the injured fullback Cox, got the call and answered with a one-yard run. Reidford was key to the drive as he moved from receiver to running back and finished with 53 yards in 11 carries during his first night in the backfield this year. When Harness ran the two-point conversion in the Vikings were back to within a touchdown.

That touchdown finally came after some impressive stands by the North Posey defense.

“We decided we could run the ball as bad as the weather was,” Gengelbach explained of the second-half comeback. “Nick (Neidig) caught a big pass in there and Jared (Reidford) caught one and ev-erything began to click. In that second half, we just hung in there and grinded them down and didn’t make too many mistakes.”

With 4:55 remaining in the game, Wes Harness scored his fourth touchdown of the night on a one yard run but that was only enough to time the game. And with a stiff wind into the south goal posts, Neidig had enough on a tipped extra point attempt to get it through the goal posts and the Vikings held their only lead of the night.

The defense did the rest until Wes harness came up with an inter-ception with a little over a minute remaining and alertly went to the ground so his team could run out the clock. Harness had a career night with 176 yards on 25 carries. He also had two kick-off returns for an average of almost 30 yards and the final interception..

Coaches seem to remember mistakes and Gengelbach is no ex-ception as he readily recalled an offside’s and a hold that each put the Vikings in a long yardage situation earlier in the contest but despite the mistakes, the Vikings were able to maintain their composure and find a way to win.

If there was any one explanation for the big Viking win, it was simply the ability to play through adversity and realize that the game is never over until the final horn sounds.

The Vikings finished with 285 yards on the ground with Harness, Reidford, and Colton Martin (35 yards on nine carries) doing the damage. Quarterback Colton Motz completed 5-of-10 passes with one interception.

Neidig caught two passes for 62 yards while Reidford caught one for 27, Cody Voelker caught one for 11, and Martin caught one for three yards. Neidig handled all the kicking duties.

The team statistics were as even as the game as North Posey had 19 first downs to 18 for the Rangers. North Posey ran 58 plays to 55 for Forest park. The Rangers edged the Vikings in total yardage 371-368 and the Vikings held a slight edge in time of possession, 24:14 to 23:46. Both teams punted three times.

Defensively, the Vikings were led by Alex Goebel who finished with eight solo tackles, an interception, and two assists. Colton Mar-tin, Jared Voegel, Nick Neidig, Kurt Seibert, and Jamon Tapp had four solo tackles apiece. Jacob Bender, Travis Reese, Cody Voelker, Chris O’Risky, Bryce Koester, Austin Little, and Nick Heldt all reg-istered at least one solo tackle. Harness also registered a tackle for a loss.

The Vikings will play Friday night at Tell City. The Marksman have shown improvement over the course of the season. Game time is 7 p.m. in Tell City.

Vikings, from Page B1

By Steve JoosThe Mount Vernon vol-

leyball team split its match-es this week, but at least there was an extra meaning in the teams they beat.

The Lady Wildcats shook off a slow start Saturday morning to beat the Vin-cennes Lady Alices 25-22, 25-12, 25-16, capturing the Big Eight Conference end of their triangular at the Lady Alices gym. On Tuesday the Lady Cats defeated Bosse in fi ve sets, toppling a prospec-tive Class 3A Sectional rival and probably SIAC cham-pion.

Their matches against two stronger, but smaller schools weren’t as successful, as Mount Vernon dropped a 25-14, 20-25, 25-21 deci-sion to Tell City after losing a home-court match to Ma-ter Dei on Thursday.

“We had a rough start against Vincennes,” coach Andi Allford said. “We weren’t communicating early in the match and we didn’t concentrate very well. We were able to adjust after that and we did a lot better in the other sets.”

Jacey Ritzert helped the team pick things up as the match progressed, fi nding a hole in the Lady Alice de-fense and getting the ball to it.

Allford was pleased with the team’s effort against Tell City, despite the outcome of the match.

“Tell City has a solid team,” she said. “The had a big threat who played the middle and the outside. I think my team played well, but we just weren’t able to get points when we needed them.”

The team especially strug-gled at the net, as the Lady Cats committed a number of blocking errors during the match.

Brittany Wallis served 10 straight points to help Mount Vernon to a the second-game win, which squared the notch at one set each.

Allford does think her team can play with most of the ones from Evansville, even if the Lady Cats split with two squads from the city last week.

The Lady Cats started out well, but as the evening

went on, things went down hill against Mater Dei, los-ing 21-25, 25-22, 25-20, 25-14.

“We came out to play to-night, but we didn’t fi nish,” Allford said. “We came out, but you’ve got to stay until game over and we didn’t do that. A disappointing night, they knew what they had to do, but it’s a matter of doing it when times get tough.”

Mount Vernon started out well, taking advantage of aggressive swinging at the ball to keep Mater Dei from getting into their offense and that enabled Mount Vernon to take the opener.

The Lady Cats had the lead late in the third set, but Mater Dei took control at 19-18 and went from there to post a 25-20 win.

In the fourth set, a side out on Stemple’s fi rst serve gave the ball back to Mater Dei, which went from there to open a 6-0 lead. Mater Dei built a 17-5 bulge before Mount Vernnon was able to mount a challenge late in the contest.

Mount Vernon’s fi rst fi ve points of the last set were rally points which broke Mater Dei serves. A kill off a Wallis offering and an out of bounds Mater Dei vol-ley were the fi rst service points of the fourth game for Mount Vernon.

Mater Dei held a 15-4 lead by that time.

Mater Dei’s defense picked up after the fi rst game, which gave the Evansville school a chance to get its offense going that kept Mount Vernon from gaining any traction after the fi rst two games, Allford said. “Game one, I had six players on the court that had the same goal,” the coach said. “By game four, the motivation changed. Everybody wants it, every-body wants to win, but by that point we weren’t con-

necting, we were making mistakes where we couldn’t be making mistakes and Mater Dei’s just a super team and we can’t make the kind of mistakes we made and hope to win.”

Meagan Martin was a steady presence again for the Lady Wildcats, with three aces and 43 assists, while two other mainstays, Ritzert and Lauren Stem-ple, made their contribu-tions to the cause, Stemple with 16 digs and Stemple with 16 digs. Wallis had two blocks.

The reserves dropped their match 25-13, 25-12.

The week started with a bit of a bang as the Lady Cats let down in the fi rst set and then didn’t let up until they came away with a 24-26, 25-14, 26-24, 25-16 win over visiting Bosse.

“Overall, we played in control,” Allford said. “Nothing too spectacu-lar, nothing too bad, so we played neutral.”

Ritzert registered 23 kills, while Martin had 47 assists in helping the Lady Wildcats to the win.

seven yards out and Jake McConnell added the extra point, giving the Pio-neers a 7-0 lead.

Mount Vernon got a break when the Cats defl ected a Boonville punt to the Pioneer 27-yard line with 10:15 to go in the second quarter. Isaac hit two passes, both to Tyler Ritzert, moved the ball to the three-yard and one play later, Isaac took it in from a yard out. Nick Theodosis tied the game at 7-7 with the extra point.

McConnell’s 34-yard fi eld goal with 4:10 left on the clock gave the Pio-neers a 10-7 lead, but Mount Vernon answered with a seven-play, 63-yard drive which took up all but 36.5 sec-

onds of the remaining time in the fi rst half.

Craig Dick had 18 yards on one carry, but Isaac did a lot of the work, ticking off 35 yards on three of the last four plays and putting the ball in the end zone giving Mount Vernon the lead. Theodosis added the extra point to make it 14-10 at halftime.

Maier said that the team has to learn that it’s important to hang on to the ball for the entire game.

“We’ve got to keep learning from this and move forward,” Maier said. “They’ve got to understand that they’ve got to take care of the football, it’s a four-quarter proposition, it’s not

something that you can do some of the time, it’s something you’ve got to do all the time.”

Isaac accounted for most of the Wildcats’ 226 yards in total offensive, completing 12 of 14 passes for 123 yards and racking up another 62 on the ground, which accounted for most of the Wildcats’ 103 yards rushing.

Stewart rushed for 79 yards and two of Boonville‘s touchdowns.

The Pioneers played with confi -dence, Maier said, adding that his team is getting better each week and they will be a good team at some point.

Now, if they could just hang on to the ball better.

By Dave PearceIt is beginning to look like the North

Posey Viking volleyball team could be reaching their peak at the right time.

The lady Vikings fought back from two games down against a very solid Tecumseh squad on Thursday evening to claim a 15-12 win in the fi nal game and a fi fth game Pocket Athletic Conference win.

But it was anything but easy.For the fi rst two games, the Lady Braves

appeared to have things going their way. They were smooth, their sets were right where they should be, and they appeared to be loaded with confi dence. As a matter of fact, North Posey held a 23-19 lead, the Vi-kings surrendered six consecutive points to lose the fi rst game 25-23.

And the second game wasn’t really much better. The Lady Braves appeared to be hit-ting on all cylinders and although the Vi-kings appeared to be playing hard, nothing was going their way. Coach Gary Gentil took his second and fi nal time out of the second game with his team behind 13-3.

The Lady Vikings managed to get back into that game somewhat as they pulled back to within 21-15 before trading points with the Lady Braves and dropping the sec-ond game 25-17. At that point it appeared that it would only be a matter of time.

“The fi rst game we came made it close and the second game, we really struggled at the start,” Gentil said. “We talked about a couple things that have happened this week as the result of slow starts. And they responded really well. I can’t wait until we get completely healthy and are able to play at a high level all the time.”

The third game was certainly a see-saw battle as neither team could fi nd much breathing room. The Vikings took a 10-8 lead on a Deana Lindauer block only to have the Lady Braves fi ght back and take a 13-11 lead. As a matter of fact, the Vikings were down 19-13 when Jordan Wassmer stepped to the service line.

When the lady Braves fi nally managed a side out, the Vikings had fought and clawed their way back to within a point at 18-20 and had forced a Tecumseh time out. That resulted in a Wassmer service error but this Viking team was in it for the long haul.

A Jordan Butler spike and subsequent

service winner fi nally tied the game at 20 before Tecumseh again took a 21-20 advan-tage.

Facing four points from elimination, the Lady Vikings took control.

The Vikings’ most reliable server took the line in the person of Kendall Reidford and a Caitlinn Herrmann kill tied the game at 21. The senior setter served out the third game and gave her team the momentum it needed.

But again, a slow start haunted the Vi-kings in the fourth game. Still facing elimi-nation. The Vikings fell behind 7-2 and 9-3 before they again could fi nd any momen-tum. Again, it was Reidford at the line when the Vikings began to take control.

Facing an 11-7 defi cit, the Vikings were vic-torious on two extremely long rallies and had pulled to within 7-11 when Reidford scored on a tip and then went to the service line.

Three serves later the Vikings were with-in 11-10 and the Lady Braves called a time out. But it appeared the Vikings were the ones who benefi ted from the break. Reid’s service run ended with the Vikings leading 14-12 and they would never trail again in the fourth game.

Consecutive spikes by Butler and Me-gan Cumbee combined with some amazing saved by libero Megan Redman gave the Vikings a 6-point lead and Tecumseh would get no closer as Butler got the big spike to end the game and send the match into a fi fth and deciding game.

Again, the Vikings fell behind early and trailed 6-3 in the deciding game which would be decided on the fi rst team to reach 15. Gentil called time out and the girls re-sponded.

“We fi nally started playing our game,” Gentil said. “There were times in this match where we were reacting from our heels. In that last time out, I told them they had to get away from everything Tecumseh was doing and just play our game.”

And play their game they did.The Vikings began playing the kind of

volleyball that they play when they win. A big Butler serve and a big Herrmann spike forced a Tecumseh time out with the Braves leading 9-7. But right out of the time out, A Butler spike and “that Reidford girl” was back at the line. When her serve was bro-ken, the Vikings led 10-9.

The game would be tied at 11 before a pair of hot Lindauer serves and excellent overall court play gave the Vikings a 13-11 lead, forcing Tecumseh to use their fi nal time out.

They were able to score one point after the time out but an unreturnable Megan

Redman serve gave the Vikings their ninth win of the season against 11 losses.

“We can’t play the scramble game and beat anyone,” Gentil said. “But they are a well-coached team. We just have to stay in the fi ghting mode and stay out of the scram-ble mode if we are going to be successful.”

By Steve JoosTwo out of three isn’t bad, especially if it’s a school from

outside Evansville going up against the Southern Indiana Athletic Conference.

That’s what the Mount Vernon boys’ tennis team did last week, beating two teams from the city, including one of their more formidable prospective Sectional foes.

The Wildcats swept the singles spots Thursday night en route to a rain-shortened 3-1 victory over Mater Dei, one night after dominating Bosse 5-0.and losing 3-2 to North.

Against Mater Dei, the key to victory was simple for Mount Vernon, the singles.

Jevin Redman, Ross Canada and Todd Sheffer each blanked their opponents in the second set while winning their spots. Redman beat Jarret Scott 6-2, 6-0 at fi rst singles, Canada topped Boston Knapp 6-3, 6-0 and Sheffer bested Matthew DeVault 6-1, 6-0.

Mater Dei’s win came at fi rst doubles, where Paul Elpers and Mike Elpers topped Layton Hopper and Seth Reeves in a tie-breaker.

The second doubles teams couldn’t get on the court due to the weather.

Mater Dei took the reserve meet 2-1. The Cats snapped back Wednesday with a 5-0 victory over

visiting Bosse.The recovery was more like a rout, as the top two singles

spots went to the Cats in straight sets. Redman was a 6-0, 6-0 winner over Dennis Valies 6-0,

6-0, and Canada posted a 6-0, 6-0 win over Alex Norton at second singles.

The order of the day otherwise was 6-0, 6-1, which was the score as Sheffer topped Jake Douhitt at third singles and the second doubles duo of Cruet Crabtree and Hunter Wilson took down their opponents. Hopper and Reeves won their match 6-1, 6-0.

The reserves posted a 5-1 victory.The Cats started their battles with Evansville on Tuesday,

dropping a 3-2 decision visiting North.Redman was a 6-0, 6-1 winner over Cale Heiman at fi rst

singles, while Sheffer was a 6-3, 6-3 winner over Alex Mc-Camel at third singles for Mount Vernon’s only wins over the Huskies.

Canada went down fi ghting, as he dropped a 6-4, 7-5 de-cision to Addison Hill at second singles, while the Huskies nailed things down with a doubles sweep. Wilson and Crab-tree got a few more licks in at second doubles, but fell to Trevor Poirier and Jordan Greenwell. Jacob Poirier and Nick Courey were 6-1, 6-0 winners over Hopper and Reeves,

The Huskies also claimed the reserve meet 2-1.

GUILTY PLEASURES &THE POSEY COUNTY NEWS

331 E Fourth Street.Mount Vernon, IN

By Steve JoosOnce the North Posey

volleyball team got going, they played a lot better in last week’s match at New Harmony.

The Lady Vikings shook off the nerves in each of the fi rst three contests and went on to post a 25-16, 25-15, 21-25, 25-14 win over the Lady Rappites.

“At the beginning, we were sluggish,” Lady Vi-kings coach Gary Gentil said. “At the beginning of a varsity match, no mat-ter who you’re playing, you can’t be that way. We settled down and I think it ended up 25-16. Each time we played, we got better for

us. Each time it progressed, we did better.”

The main thing Gentil took from the decision was simple; it was a win.

“A win’s a win,” the coach said. “That’s three in a row. Right now, we’re not the healthiest bunch. There are a number of adjustments that we have to make, so we’ll take the win.”

Start sluggish and get bet-ter as the might progressed?

Well maybe, but the Lady Rappites got their licks in at the end of the sets, as well.

The match, like the rest of the regular season’s con-tests, will be seen as learn-ing experiences for the Lady Rappites, according to assistant coach Ashley Robinson.

“We told them, ‘we’re going to start fresh, we’re going to work on some different things’ and we told them we’re going to look on every game as just practices,” Robinson ssaid. “We’ve got a lot of young girls, a lot of raw talent, so every day from this day on is like a practice.”

The Lady Vikings led 22-13 late in the fi rst set, but New Harmony scored three points before they were fi -nally put away. In the sec-ond set, the Lady Vikings once again had to shake off a pesky Lady Rappite attack, surviving another sluggish start to go up 8-7

on a net error which broke Alyssa Scherzinger’s serve. The Lady Vikings reeled off three straight points with Jordan Wassmer at the line en route to a 23-13 lead af-ter Kelsey Everley’s serves resulted in another big North Posey run.

But once again, New Harmony got to make a last stand, scoring off a Morgan Matthews serve before los-ing the ball in the new and misfi ring on Megan Red-man’s fi rst offering to give North Posey game point and a 2-0 advantage.

The same pattern help in the fourth set as North Posey stormed out to a 21-9 lead before New Harmony got going.

“A couple of times, they got a good serve in,” Gentil said. “We couldn’t defend it, we tried to do a couple of things and they didn’t go our way. A varsity team’s going to have a good server and they’re going to get a good serve in. The way we started off tonight, I’m hap-py that we got better.”

Since there was no re-serve match, Gentil put the reserves in during the third set and it showed, as the re-serves were nervous at the outset.

New Harmony took ad-vantage of those nerves to take a 5-1 lead and main-tain that four-point advan-tage for most of the game. North Posey tried to minute a comeback, fi rst scoring four points with Redman at the line to ties things up at 11-11 and then with Kendall Reidford in serve, forging another tie at 17-17.

After the second dead-lock, a battle of attrition ensued with the two teams trading rally points until the Lady Rappites opened things up off Matthews’ serves, scoring the last three points of the game for a 25-21 victory.

The Lady Rappites also had their moments in the fourth game and made it ap-pear for a while that were going to at least try and re-peat the route they took to a win at Washingotn Catho-lic, where they dug them-

selves out of an 0-2 hole for a fi ve-set win.

Robinson thought that the win at Washington Catho-lic gave the Lady Rappites some confi dence, but North Posey’s defense was dif-ferent than anything they’d seen this season, which meant that they had to take what they learned from beating the Lady Cardinals and apply those lessons against the Lady Vikings.

“Once they got the hang of it, it started working in their favor,” she said. “They’re fi nally starting to use things that they’ve learned and use it to their advantage.”

New Harmony paid more attention to the North posey defense and did a better job of fi nding the open holes in the third game, Robinson said, adding that the team did a better job of commu-nicating what they saw on the fl oor.

The Lady Vikings were playing a setter-based de-fense which left the 10-foot line open, Robinson explained, adding that the corners were closed, forc-ing them to swing for the middle of the court. Some-thing the coaches have told them not to do.

The coach was also pleased to see the Lady Rappites relax and stay in the game.

Scherzinger played well at the net, while Matthews played her usual strong game all over the court, the coach said. Robinson was also pleased with newcomer Kate Newman, who came in and showed some promise in her fi rst match.

Gentil was especially pleased with Deana Lindau-er’s efforts in the backcourt, as well as the efforts put in

by Deana Lindauer, Wendi Simpson and Caitlin Her-rmann.

Kelsey Owen led the Lady Rappites with six aces, while Scherzinger turned in 16 assists. Kendall Morris paced the squad in digs and Matthews in kills.

The Lady Rappites showed much more im-provement on Saturday, when they went 1-2 in their invitational tournament.

New Harmony defeated Agape Christian 25-19, 25-19 in between losses to Te-cumseh 25-20, 25-18, and Bosse 25-8, 25-19 in the opener.

“We played better in that last game,” Prewitt said. “We’ve still got some things we need to work on, but we’re doing well.”

The Lady Rappites gave Tecumseh a bit more than it may have bargained for, pushing the eventual cham-pion Lady Braves in both sets leading for most of the fi rst set until Kara Snow served three points to put Tecumseh in front 15-14.

A rally point and three tallies off Jessica Deckard-Mills’ serves restored New Harmony’s edge, but that was short-lived as Kamlyn Spivey went to the line and Tecumseh put over three straight to put the Lady Braves in front fro good. The Lady Rappites made the Lady Braves earn the win, however, forcing them into a duel of rally points down the stretch with just three of the team’s last six points coming off serves.

The back-and-forth con-tinued in the second game, as Matthews helped rally the team from a 10-7 defi cit with four service points only to have New Harmony lose the ball on a net error. Two

points off Brenna Floyd’s offerings broke the 11-11 tie. The war of attrition was reignited, with Tecumseh crafting a three-point bulge until Floyd served out.

“We’ve got a lot of dif-ferent players that we’re trying to work into differ-ent spots,” Prewitt said. “We were just playing as a team and hitting their spots. Tecumseh was hitting their serves and getting the ball over.”

The Lady Rappites strug-gled in their match against stronger Agape Christian team—until Kendall Mor-ris served with the Illinois school leading 15-12 in the fi rst game.

Morris dished up a seven-point string that put New Harmony in the driver’s seat at 19-16. Deckard-Mills all but fi nished up the fi rst set.

Another three-point run opened up a 9-5 lead in the second game then stretched it to 18-12 before holding off Agape Christian for the win.

“We served pretty well against Agape Christian,” Prewitt said. “We had a cou-ple of good passes. Bosse was just playing hard. There were intimidating.”

Prewitt feels that the team is making progress and that they should be ready for the Sectionals, when they could be facing the Lady Braves again.

On Thursday, the Lady Rappites got off to a good start, but couldn’t hang on and dropped a 23-25, 25-17, 25-16, 25-13 decision to visiting Mount Carmel.

The Lady Rappites were up 21-19 in the fi rst game and then had to rally after four straight points put the Lady Golden Aces up by a point.

In the second game, New Harmony was still ahead early in the period, but couldn’t keep up after the Illinoisans put over fi ve points to open an 18-11 lead.

In each of the sets New Harmony lost Thursday, the team was competitive, only to see Mount Carmel get on a roll and basically take over the game from there. The Lady Aces had another fi ve-point run to open the third game and then needed another run to hold off New Harmony after a three-point streak off Matthews’ offer-ings pulled the Lady Rap-pites to within three points at 13-10.

In the fourth game, New Harmony battled back from a 6-2 defi cit to tie the game at 11-11 before the Lady Aces pulled away again.

The two teams played a reserve match which was abbreviated due to a lack of players on New Harmony’s part. The small squad size was complicated buy a var-sity match which lasted four sets, Prewitt said.

POSEY COUNTY TAX SALE

DELINQUENT PROPERTY TAX SALE NETS $97,766 FROM 99PROPERTIES PAID PRIOR TO THE SALE AND SOLD AT THE SALE

MT. VERNON, INDIANA- 9/12/2011

Posey County Offi cials held their annual delinquent property tax sale on Sep-tember 12, 2011. The sale was conducted by County Auditor Nicholas Wilde-man and County Treasurer Linda D Curtis. A property tax sale is required to be held in each Indiana county for those properties where an owner of real estate fails to pay the property taxes from the prior year’s fi rst property tax bill installment. A tax lien on the property may be sold to satisfy the tax obligation to the highest bidder. The owners of the properties sold at the tax sale have one year to pay the delinquent property taxes, costs and penalties to keep the prop-erty. The sale, conducted by Indianapolis-based SRI Incorporated on behalf of Posey County, offered 88 parcels to 20 bidders. SRI conducts tax sales in 83 counties in Indiana, Michigan, and Colorado. This year’s tax sale resulted in the collection of $97,765.73 from owners and buyers. 99 parcels had all taxes, penalties, and costs paid in full. Treasurer Linda D Curtis said, “Tax sales are a necessary function of county government. It is only fair to the people who pay their property taxes every year to pursue those that do not pay.” For the 62 properties that did not sell, the county commissioners acquire a tax lien. The county commissioners may offer those properties to the public at a sale at a later date. County Auditor Nicholas Wildeman commented, “It is our ultimate goal to return these properties to the tax rolls as quickly and effi ciently as pos-sible. Property owned by people that pay their property taxes ensure our local government services are fully funded.” For more information on property tax sales, visit www.sri-taxsale.com.

PUBLIC NOTICE

The Indiana Department of Transportation & the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Division of Outdoor Recre-ation thru the Recreational Trail Program is planning to undertake the New Harmony Trails Phase II project, funded in part by the Federal Highway Administration. The project will consist of the continuation of a trail around the Town of New Harmony. The project is located in Sections 35 and 36, Township 4 South, and Range 14 West, as well as Section 1, Township 5 South, Range 14 West, Harmony Township, Posey County, Indiana.

The project area is approximately 1.86 miles in length and 8 in width with the northern terminus of the proposed trail situated north of the Town of New Harmony tying into the Northeastern portion of the existing New Harmony Trails Phase I project. From this terminus, the project area runs in an east-northeasterly direction along the Wabash River for approximately 2,280 ft, at which point the project area heads in a southerly direction for approximately 2,060 ft, to North Street which concludes the Northern portion of the trail. The project begins again at Steam Mill St. and Third St. then goes South and runs approximately 300 feet then turns to the west for approximately 790 ft along South St. R/W and then heads in a southerly direction along a power line utility corridor for approximately 1,910 ft. At this point the project area runs in a westerly direction for approximately 1,740 ft and intersecting with State Road 69, which is South Main Street in the Town of New Harmony. Lastly, a portion of the trail also projects to the North along the Southern leg along East St. to the paved road near the school.

The proposed project will not impact any properties/districts that are listed on or are eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The Federal Highway Administration has issued a No Adverse Effect for the project due to the fact that the proposed project will not visually or materially impact the New Harmony Historic District because no construction activities will be undertaken within the district.

Jeff attended Physical Therapy three times a week for rehab after hip replacement surgery. He began on a rolling walker and was having some slight pain. During three weeks in outpatient therapy, he progressed to a straight cane and had very little pain.

Jeff was given a strengthening program to continue at home including standing exercises. Jeff made very good progress and was able to return to his some of his daily activities quickly. He chose New Harmonie Healthcare for his rehab needs not only for convenient location, but also for the high quality care and compassion provided by the facility and rehab staff. “I could not have asked for more professional and encouraging care from the entire PT and New Harmonie Healthcare Staff especially my Physical Therapist Megan Bretz”
