Ron Henry shows off the championship trophies, ribbons, and mementos
he has on display at his hair design studio in Pine Island. Henry said he
still cant believe he won two American Miniature Horse National
Championships.
By Audra DePestel
PINE ISLAND Ron Henry
recently won two national cham-
pionship trophies and ribbons for
two of his miniature horses at the
worlds largest small equine com-
petition, American Miniature
Horse (AMHR) National Show,
held September 4-14 at the Tulsa
Expo Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
At the event miniature horses com-
peted for cash and prizes in classes
such as driving, jumping, costume,
obstacle, halter and more. With
1,597 miniatures accounting for
more than 6,200 entries in 380-
plus classes, the 2014 AMHR
National Show is the largest show
of its kind in the world.
Henry is a longtime resident of
Pine Island. He and his wife Janet
have six grown children and sev-
eral grandchildren. Henry is a hair
stylist by trade and owns and op-
erates Henrys Hair Designers on
Main Street.
He became interested in minia-
ture horses in 2008 after purchas-
ing two mares and one stallion.
He began working with horses and
that same year he entered his first
driving show in Colfax, Iowa.
There he met two people (Scott
Lundy and Don Mass) who took
him under their wing. With their
help Henry learned the ins and
outs of the competitions and what
to do and what not to do while
training. Soon Henry was feeling
more comfortable and entered the
2008 Minnesota State Miniature
Horse Show in Albert Lea. He has
been showing ever since at local
and state fairs and competitions
with great success.
Henry now has five miniature
horses he has trained, two of which
are now AMHR National Cham-
pions: Sunnys Hot Stuff, a five-
year-old mare he has owned for
two years, and DM Pasture Power,
a seven-year-old gelding he has
owned for the last five years. Henry
and the two miniatures took top
honors in the National Class for
horses 32 inches, his mare in the
Roadster class and his gelding in
the Open Pleasure class.
Winning not only one but two
championships at the national level
was surreal, more than Henry ever
expected or dreamed of. He said,
This was the first time I have
ever competed at this level, so I
didnt expect to win anything big,
I was just hoping to make it in the
top ten...I have been getting calls
from people congratulating me and
some are interested in buying my
horses.
Henry was encouraged to go to
the competition by his family who
said this was his year to go. Al-
though his family was not able to
attend the competition in person,
they were able to watch it on closed
circuit TV.
The 2015 AMHR National Show
will again take place in Tulsa, but
Henry says for now he plans on
just going back to competing a
little closer to home. Winning the
AMHR National Championships
is something Henry can now cross
off his bucket list, but that doesnt
mean that he wont someday make
his way back to that level of com-
petition again in the future.

ZUMBROTA On Friday, Sep-
tember 26, the Zumbrota Area Arts
Council hosted a closing recep-
tion and auction for Art on Main
at the Stary-Yerka VFW Post 5727
banquet hall. Appetizers and des-
serts were provided by Bridgets
Caf, Coffee Mill, and Gunners
Grill. Guests were able to bid on
silent auction paintings and ban-
ners while eating and listening to
the CBB Jazz Combo. A live auc-
tion took place with all proceeds
going toward renovations of the
State Theatre. Among the auc-
tion items were a private movie
party at the State Theatre that went
for $350; a dinner for eight with
chef Kathleen Schau, $350; and a
portrait of choice by artist Connie
Ludwig, $300.
Trevor Perrett of Wanamingo browses the art items up for silent auction.
Artist Judi Alme of Minneapolis poses with her painting that was up for
auction. Almes husband David is from Wanamingo.

Its that time of year again to
get vaccinated for influenza. Vac-
cinations (including injections and
nasal mist) will be provided for
anyone age six months or older.
A copy of your insurance card
is requested. Most insurances,
Medicare, and SCHA/MA are ac-
cepted. Low-cost or free vaccines
will be available for children and
adults without insurance cover-
age.
While there is not a vaccine for
many flu-like illnesses, getting
vaccinated for influenza can pre-
vent many from getting flu viruses
that can be serious, especially for
pregnant women, the elderly,
young children, and people with
health problems.

Deserving a disease
First and foremost, no one de-
serves a disease. I believe in free
will. I dont believe in predesti-
nation. Yet this is the Jewish holi-
day where we wish each other to
be inscribed in the Book of Life
for the New Year. We try to cover
all of the bases, just in case we are
wrong. Remember the doctor who
worked without rubber gloves with
Ebola patients? He got the dis-
ease because he was unprotected...
Would he have gotten sick if he
had rubber gloves?
We have encountered many dis-
eases that sooner or later will kill
us. We have one known as ALS.
The USA became familiar with
ALS this Labor Day. We also know
of it as Lou Gehrigs Disease. It is
a strange and interesting problem.
It is what I call a default disease. It
starts with a list of ten symptoms.
As soon as you exhibit at least
three of the ten, the doctors will
test you for multiple diseases based
on your symptoms. They are elimi-
nating the known causes. If you
dont have any of the known, test-
able diseases, then by default, you
have ALS.
ALS affects the motor nerves
of those muscles that you can con-
trol. Any muscle that you do not
control is unaffected. For example,
the diaphragm is controlled (hold-
ing your breathe) so your ability
to breathe is affected. But your
heart is not since you normally
cant stop your heart. The motor
nerves stop transmitting to the
muscles and the muscles stop
moving. A person will experience
muscle cramping because the
muscle wants to move and will
fake a nerve signal to itself result-
ing in a cramp. Over time the
muscles get weaker and weaker
until you have difficulty moving
your arms and legs. You become
a quadriplegic. The end is carbon
dioxide poisoning due to not ex-
haling enough CO2. It simply puts
you to sleep and you dont wake
up.
Even though The Mayo Clinic
has been studying ALS for over
100 years, very little progress has
been made. We have no medicines.
We have some technical solutions
but no cures. The shocking, mind-
numbing answer to the diagnosis
is that you have an average of two
years to live from the date of diag-
nosis. Then you have a discussion
of what the word average means.
The last 100 years has seen many
people who lived long, slowly
evolving ALS while others died
within two years.
ALS is entrapment. Your brain
is working just fine, yet you can-
not move and your ability to talk
is also affected. You are rapidly
becoming isolated. You are trapped
in your body. Everyones path is
pursued at a different pace but the
path is the same. Until next week.
Putting a rumor to rest
To the Editor:
First, I would like to introduce
myself. I am Stephanie Rosenthal.
I am the twenty-four-year-old
daughter of Zumbrota-Mazeppa
School Board member Stephen
Rosenthal. Currently, I live in the
Twin Cities where I work at the
University of Minnesota; I like to
catch up with my parents on a fre-
quent basis. Recently on a phone
call with my father, I asked him
how the school board and his elec-
tion were going. He had mentioned
the frustration that he was having
with a rumor that he had not had
any children graduate from Zum-
brota-Mazeppa. I understand his
frustration because I am a 2008
graduate of Zumbrota-Mazeppa
High School.
So to clear things up and to put
rumors to rest, my mother, Marlee
Rosenthal, teaches at Pine Island
High School and my siblings went
to ZM then transferred to Pine Is-
land. However, my father does have
a graduate from the ZM School
District. My frustrations with these
rumors, first and foremost, come
from the fact that I was and am a
proud ZM Cougar.
During my high school career I
participated in many extracurricu-
lar school activities, including the
girls group for choir, track and
field, cheerleading, speech team,
the one-act play group, and I was
highly involved with the visual
arts program which lead to the
Starry Night Van Gogh mural that
encompasses the art room door-
way near the cafeteria.
So, yes, Stephen Rosenthal is
the father of a graduate of Zum-
brota- Mazeppa High School. My
father greatly cared about educa-
tion when I was in school, and he
continues to show that passionate
care for the future graduates of
the Zumbrota-Mazeppa school
district. Finally, I am a proud Zum-
brota-Mazeppa Cougar from the
wonderful class of 2008!

Have you been taxed enough yet?
To the Editor:
Have you been taxed enough
yet? The current Wabasha County
Board of Commissioners are talk-
ing about a 9.5% to 14% increase
in your taxes. Once again they are
going straight to the taxpayer to
come up with the money, versus
trying to cut costs and reduce their
budget.
Each department should be given
the challenge to cut spending and
reduce expenses, coming back with
a plan to accomplish just that. I
worked for a private business and
this process was normal proce-
dure to keep budgets and spend-
ing under control. Each depart-
ment was given a goal (a certain
percentage) to keep their budget
within, and no one could finalize
their budget until they met that
requirement. In this county no one
takes ownership of their budget in
order to reduce or control spend-
ing. Taxpayers have given sug-
gestions to the board of commis-
sioners on how to achieve this but
the taxpayer and his suggestions
are ignored.
Here is a suggestion: how about
reducing the number of board of
commissioners meetings held each
month? If you look at the budget
they are asking for a 17% increase
in per diems. This is ludicrous.
The last two board meetings have
had exactly two agenda items on
them and have lasted less than a
hour. Now, hows that for a waste
of taxpayer money? It doesnt
bother the commissioners to come
to a board meeting that only lasts
a few minutes. They get paid for
four hours even if it only lasts ten
minutes. So why dont we go back
to two meetings a month to save
the taxpayer per diem money? The
county could drop the 17% in-
crease in per diems altogether.
This is just one example of many
budget increases that are NOT
necessary.
Now, remember that three union
contracts have been completed
already, giving these employees
4+% increase (year one), 4+%
increase (year two) 5+% increase
(year three) for the next three years
respectively. Wabasha County
Sheriff Deputies rejected their
contact and are currently in arbi-
tration, so you know that their in-
creases will be even larger than
the previous contracts. To people
in the private sector: when is the
last time you received that large
of an increase and how many years
has it been between your salary
increases? This is nothing more
than greed.
Taxpayers, please come to a
board meeting or contact your
commissioners to let them know
you are not happy with their bud-
get plan of increasing your taxes
9.5% to 14%. Goodhue County
just set their preliminary budget
figure at a 2.25% increase. That
means when it is finalized it cant
be any higher than that; it can go
lower but not higher. Wabasha
County Board of Commissioners
I challenge you to lower your bud-
get to the level of Goodhue County.
There isnt any justification for a
14% increase in our taxes. Enough
is enough.

Supports Mike McFadden
To the Editor:
On September 24, 2014 Mike
McFadden met with citizens for
45 minutes to discuss concerns
about renewable energy issues. He
sat down at the table and said,
Im here to learn.
McFadden listened, asked ques-
tions, and showed genuine inter-
est in what citizens had to say It
was a refreshing contrast to the
last three and a half years of being
actively avoided by Senators Al
Franken and Amy Klobuchar.
Neither Senator Franken nor Sena-
tor Klobuchar would consent to
meet with grassroots citizens with
direct experience and knowledge
of the renewable energy industry.
Only their staff meet with citizens
never the senators themselves.
Frankens staffs main duty ap-
pears to be keeping Franken far
away from substantive conversa-
tions on important issues. Sena-
tor Franken did have time to col-
lect substantial campaign contri-
butions from NextEra and Gen-
eral Electric two corporations
that use green energy tax credits
championed by Franken to lower
their federal tax bills to zero.
I believe it is time to send a
Minnesotan to Washington who
has time to meet with citizens
not just with lobbyists seeking
corporate welfare.

ZM continues to struggle
Pine Island has a disappointing week
By Faye Haugen
PINE ISLAND - The Pine Is-
land volleyball team had a tough
week, dropping both of their HVL
matches in three games to Lour-
des and Cannon Falls.
The Panthers will try to regroup
on Thursday when they host
Kenyon-Wanamingo. PI will take
part in the Byron Invitational on
Saturday beginning at 8:30 a.m.
and they will play at Lake City on
Tuesday.

Tuesday.
Lake City
The Knight sent Lake City pack-
ing early on Tuesday after stop-
ping them 25-16, 25-19 and 25-
13.
Our blocking was great tonight.
If we were not getting ace blocks,
the girls did a good job of getting
their hands on the ball to slow it
down for our defense to get under
it and play it up, said Coach Jen
Nerison. It was very fun to watch.
Mara Quam had a big night at
the net with 16 kills. She added
two ace serves. Megan Quam and
Brittney Flom each had seven kills.

What a great night. The first

girls have played all season. It felt
like everything was clicking at the
right time, remarked Coach Neri-
son. Alexa Christenson had a great
night defensively at the net to-
night, finishing with seven huge
blocks. Megan Flom also did a
great job of blocking for us as well.
We only missed two serves which
is big for us. Lately we have been
struggling in the serving depart-
ment.

Corrections
Since this is the first FYI in a long
time I have a few corrections to note:
Junior Kelsie Krier did letter last
season for the Pine Island/Zumbrota-
Mazeppa girls soccer team. She was
left off the letterwinner list. Sorry for
that mistake.
To Christian Kroll (now in college),
many apologies to accidently typing in
Christina instead of Christian in the
Pine Island track and cross country
results.
Taylor Rasmussen also gets a shout
out. My spell checker kept coming up
as Rassmussen. I just needed one s at
the front of her last name.
Sorry for these mistakes. If Im
spelling a name wrong, please let me
know.

GOODHUE - Goodhue rolled
to an easy 33-14 win at Hayfield
on Friday to move their record to
4-1 on the season.
The Wildcats will host winless
Kingsland (0-5) on Friday at 7
p.m. in their Homecoming game.
Goodhue took an easy lead and
never looked back, scoring twice
in the opening quarter. Jacob Gils-
dorf got the Wildcats on the score-
board with a six-yard run. Garrett
Huemann followed that up with a
two-yard run later in the quarter
for a 12-0 lead.
The Wildcats scored two more
TDs in the second quarter. Hue-
mann plunged in from the one with
Mariano Bigalk kicking the PAT
for a 19-0 lead. Then Jacob Pasch
found Tyler Schumacher with a
34-yard touchdown pass. Bigalk
pushed the Cat lead to 26-0 by the
half.
Hayfield got on the scoreboard
with a one-yard run by Cameron
Rutledge in the third quarter.
Goodhue moved their lead to 33-
6 in the fourth quarter when Pasch
hit Sam McNamara with a 22-yard
scoring pass, with Bigalk kicking
the PAT. The Vikings scored late
in the game on a 55-yard passing
TD from Rutledge to Trace Tebay.
Pasch was 11 of 16 passing for
189 yards and two touchdowns.
Huemann led the Cats with 89 yards
on 22 carries. Schumacher made
six receptions for 101 yards.

Injuries continue to pile up for KW
By Faye Haugen
EYOTA After losing two start-
ers to injury last week (Ted An-
droli and Drew Sathrum), the
Kenyon-Wanamingo football team
saw starting quarterback Luke
Rechtzigel leave the game at the
half at Dover-Eyota on Friday.
We thought Luke broke his arm
right before the half, but the x-ray
was negative, said Coach Troter
Bauer. Luke should be ready for
Friday. I hope.
Dover-Eyota stopped the
Knights 28-0 as KW fell to 1-4 on
the season. The Eagles took a 7-0
lead in the opening quarter on a
15-yard pass. They upped their
lead to 20-0 at the half on a one-
yard run to the end zone and a 30-
yard passing play. Another one-
yard dive in the fourth quarter
completed the scoring.
The Knights did a great job of
rushing the ball with 245 yards,
but they had no passing yards.
We were able to move the ball,
but we were not able to complete
a drive with a score, reported
Coach Bauer. We somehow found
a way to shoot ourselves in the
foot with turnovers, penalties and
other mistakes. We lost our focus
early and never really got it back.
Calvin Steberg led KW in rush-
ing with 84 yards. Tanner Warner
gained 72 and Gavin Roosen, who
came off the bench to play quar-
terback, gained 52 yards.
Steberg also led the defense,
making eight tackles. Both
Nathaniel Bauernfeind and Con-
nor Sviggum had five each.
Kenyon-Wanamingo will host
Zumbrota-Mazeppa in their Home-
coming game on Friday evening
at 7 p.m.
The Cougars sport the same 1-4
record that the Knights have. ZM
is coming off a 42-0 loss to Tri-
ton.
We had many new players in
this week due to injuries. They
Second half turnovers hurt ZM
By Faye Haugen
ZUMBROTA - The Zumbrota-
Mazeppa football team was feel-
ing pretty good going into the half
trailing White Division leading
Triton 14-0. The Cougars had a
number of defensive stops on the
Cobra running game to stay in the
contest.
But the third quarter was a di-
saster for ZM. Triton took the
opening kickoff to the end zone to
push their lead to 21-0. On the
ensuing kickoff, ZM fumbled the
snap on their first offensive play,
with Triton turning it into a 28-0
lead. Triton then stripped the ball
away on the next Cougar offen-
sive series making it a 35-0 con-
test. Triton added a one-yard TD
run in the fourth quarter for the
42-0 final score.
We ran just three plays in the
third quarter and one of them was
a fumble, remarked Coach Willie
Rauen. That turned a good game
into a blowout.
Freedom Hunt was 4 of 15 pass-
ing for 41 yards with one inter-
ception. He was also the leading
ZM rusher with 90 yards on 18
carries. Jacob Forrey had two re-
ceptions for 24 yards, and Jacob
Niebuhr made two receptions for
17 yards.
The Cougars will travel to
Kenyon on Friday to face the 1-4
Knights at 7 p.m.
An injury-laden Knight squad
is coming off a 28-0 loss to Do-
ver-Eyota.

Pine Island wins big at Winona
- By Faye Haugen
WINONA - The Pine Island foot-
ball team moved their record to 4-
1 with an easy 68-25 win over
Cotter in Winona on Friday.
It didnt look like a blowout in
the opening quarter. Cotter took a
6-0 lead on a 13-yard passing play,
but the Panthers countered with a
six-yard run by Ben Farrell with
Mitchell Acker kicking the first
of seven PATs.
PI upped their lead to 14-6 on a
six-yard touchdown pass from
Chris Frick to Matt Kukson after
the Panthers recovered a Cotter
fumble. But the Ramblers answered
with a 15-yard passing TD to trail
just 14-12. That was as close as it
would get as the Panthers outscored
Cotter 54-14 the rest of the game.
Farrell raced 73 yards for a 21-
12 lead followed by a 14-yard TD
run by Tristan Akason and a fumble
recovery by Luke Thornton in the
end zone, after a PI fumble, for a
34-12 lead at the half.
Things didnt get any better for
the Ramblers. Farrell added a 50-
yard TD run to start the second
half. Frick ran 49 yards to the end
zone, and Akason added a two-
yard scoring run for a 55-18 lead
at the end of the third.
PI added two more scores when
Jacob Navritil ran in TDs of two
and 54 yards. Cotter scored a pair
of touchdown on passes of 22 and
61 yards in the second half.
Farrell had a huge game with
210 yards on 16 carries. Navratil
came off the bench to gain 101
yards on seven carries. Frick was
4 of 5 passing for 57 yards. Matt
Kukson made two receptions for
36 yards.
The Panthers will get a big test
when they host Lewiston-Altura
in their Homecoming game this
Friday at 6 p.m.
The Cards sport a 4-1 overall
record and are tied with Triton at
the top of the White Division with
a 4-0 mark. LA is coming off a 45-
22 win over St. Charles.

GOODHUE Well, well, well!
Here it is, week two in Goodhue
co-ed volleyball and Stevies Won-
ders is still in first place! Thanks
GOODHUE CO-ED VOLLEYBALL
Fired up in week two
The sophomore tug-of-war team of eight won the championship in the Zumbrota-Mazeppa High School Class
Competition that was part of the 2014 Homecoming festivities. The 2015 seniors won the class competition
that also included a volleyball tournament, pickle spitting, pie eating, trash can races, frozen T-shirt contest,
and dizzy bat competition.
Seniors win Homecoming competitions
mostly to, and I hate to even write
this, Steve Dankers.
Steve (Man of the Week) played
like a true champion as he lead his
team to a 2-1 win last night. He
managed 12 ace kills to go along
with his 14 digs. He did get one
set assist, to show you that he is a
team player.
It is important to my team that
we all do our part to help this team
win it all. And of course, if I win
the Man of the Week or Man of
the Year honors while that is hap-
pening, thats just a bonus. If ev-
eryone cared about their team like
I do, this would be a perfect league.
Ya, whatever, Steve!
Melody Bass walked in the gym
excited about Garth Brooks play-
ing in the Twin Cities, and got
more excited as the night went on.
While serving at 90% efficiency,
the Woman of the Week hummed
every song on his Low Places
album.
In between set assists, she com-
mented to anyone who would lis-
ten, I have already seen Garth in
concert. Did you know I went to
school with him? He was from
just west of Heron Lake.
She was still talking on her way
out of the lobby. Everyone else
had left early to avoid hearing the
same stuff for a fifth or eighth
time. Nice work GarthI mean,
Mel Bass!

Zumbrota/Mazeppa
History of bicycling in Zumbrota began in the 1890s
By Marilyn Anderson
ZUMBROTA September 30s
Bikeabout, sponsored by the City
of Zumbrota and Live Well
Goodhue County, had the goals
of promoting active living and
improving safety and access for
bicyclists in the community. Bi-
cycling has been a part of the citys
history and culture for well over
100 years. Bicycles first hit the
streets of Zumbrota in the early
1890s as cycling swept across the
United States following the intro-
duction of the safety bicycle and
mass production.
A look at U.S. bicycling history
reveals remarkable similarities
between the 1890s and today: on-
going improvements in bicycle
design; changes in clothing for
riders; formation of cycling groups;
racing competition; and concern
for safety and sharing the road.
Cyclings golden age
The Starley Rover Safety Bi-
cycle, with its chain-drive trans-
mission, was invented in England
in 1885. This bicycle, along with
the invention of the pneumatic (in-
flatable air-filled) tire, provided
much of the catalyst for cyclings
golden age.
Other changes were also rap-
idly taking place. The cumbersome
and often dangerous designs of
the past were replaced by a safe
design suited to all levels of riding
skill. The front high-wheel design
was eliminated with the introduc-
tion of the pneumatic tire. The
Safety was economically viable
for many in the middle and lower
classes (i.e., the majority of the
population). The bicycle had be-
come a practical investment for
the working person as transporta-
tion, and it was also an option for
leisure, particularly for racing. It
was also a new option to extend
the range for travel, as bike riding
was often easier than traveling by
foot or horse-drawn vehicles.
Besides the manufacture and
repair businesses, the increased
use of bicycles spurred other new
business ideas. One example was
when a bicycle messenger busi-
ness started in California after a
railway strike halted mail deliv-
ery for the Bay Area. A bicycle
shop owner came up with the idea
to deliver mail by bicycle, setting
up a relay system of bicyclists
between Fresno and San Francisco.
Cycling was not only for men.
It soon gained popularity with
women. As bicycles became safer
and cheaper, more women had
access to the personal freedom that
bicycles symbolized. The bicycle
craze led to a movement for so-
called rational dress, helping to
liberate women from corsets and
ankle-length skirts and other re-
strictive garments, replacing them
with bloomers. The new freedom
machine for women led Susan
B. Anthony to say, Let me tell
you what I think of bicycling. I
think it has done more to emanci-
pate women than anything else in
the world. I stand and rejoice ev-
ery time I see a woman ride by on
a wheel. It gives woman a feeling
of freedom and self-reliance.
Bicycling arrives in Zumbrota
Several local history books, such
as Goodhue County Minnesota:
a narrative history, Zumbrota
The First 100 Years, and Till
the Cows Come Home, tell of
changes and events with the ad-
vent of bicycles in the 1890s and
early 1900s in Zumbrota and
Goodhue County.
By 1892, there were enough
bicycles and interest to organize a
bicycle club in Zumbrota. In Sep-
tember, a Cycle Club was orga-
nized with these officers selected:
A.W. Person, Captain; Forest
Warren, Lieutenant; and L.O.
Haugen, Secretary-Treasurer. The
name Forest Warren appears sev-
eral times in news articles related
to early cycling in the area. (As
time goes on, there is also refer-
ence to S.D. or Sheldon Deforest
Warren presumably the same
person. S.D. Warren lived in the
Zumbrota area from 1875-1955.)
Bicycling also caught on in Red
Wing. Throughout the summer of
1895, organized competitions be-
tween teams from the two towns
were conducted. Red Wing cy-
clists built a racecourse called the
West End Driving Park, and the
Zumbrota riders created a track
west of their town.
Starting in 1892 and until 1902,
the Goodhue County Fair was held
at the S.B. Barteau farm just west/
northwest of Zumbrota. During
that time, some of the bicyclists
took part in the fair. With bicy-
cling the rage in Zumbrota in
1895, there was a large attendance
and races worthy of note at the
fairgrounds. S.D. Warren,
Zumbrotas hot scorcher, engi-
neered the different races and fired
the pistol shot as starter. Zumbrota
Corner Band provided music for
the event.
Many ladies also owned their
own bikes and joined the men at
the race track on evenings with
their wheels, as they were re-
ferred to in the early days of cy-
cling.
Other competitions attended by
local cyclists included the Min-
nesota State Fair. L.O. Haugen,
W.L. Bevers, and Forest Warren
also made the trip to Minneapolis
and back on their cycles.
On July 4, 1895, Warren received
first prize in the 18-1/2 mile bi-
cycle race at Faribault, compet-
ing against 40 others. He won a
$100 diamond stud for his time of
58 minutes, 20 seconds.
The following year, the Zum-
brota News reported that Warren
had received his new 1896 Cleve-
land Racer, believed to be the fin-
Members of the Zumbrota Cycle Club pose in 1893 with two bicycles of the era. From left to right are
Clarence Stearns, DeForest Warren, E.S. Person, W.W. Kinne, Henry Yochem, and Louis Haugen.
Riders performed the Leap the Death Gap on Zumbrotas Main Street during the Goodhue County Fairs of
1905-1910. One rider died during one such attempt.

est bicycle ever purchased in Zum-
brota at the time.
Care needed
As with anything new or differ-
ent, concern for others and safety
is necessary. Reminders were given
to bicycle riders to bear in mind
that many horses, especially farm
teams, may be unaccustomed to
bicycles on public highways. Care
was encouraged when approach-
ing or passing.
Between 1905 and1910, bicy-
clists performed an act called the
Leap-the-Death-Gap at the street
fairs in Zumbrota. With several
hundred people gathered for the
act in 1905, a rider died during
one attempt, after falling from the
30-foot platform.
End of the golden age of cycling
In 1915, the Goodhue County
Fair moved from Zumbrotas Main
Street to the north edge of town.
Harness racing became the big
attraction and crowd-pleaser at the
fairgrounds, in place of bicycle
events just a few years earlier.
Automobiles had become big about
five years earlier and drew con-
siderable attention on Main Street.
The golden age of cycling lasted
from 1890 to 1914. It was during
this time that cycling racing be-
gan. While road racing was al-
most impossible, track racing be-
came popular and developed a new
cycling culture. Cycling also made
social impacts on the late Victo-
rian era, contributing to a break-
down of rigid gender, class, and
racial barriers.
Mazeppa High School class of 1954 gathers
ORONOCO The Mazeppa High School class of 1954 celebrated its 60-year reunion on Sunday, September
7, at Uncle Johns restaurant in Oronoco. Classmates attending are, from left to right, seated: Phyllis
(Wobschall) Dahl, Darlene Frank, and Richard Weber; back: Lloyd Betcher, Lenora (Musty) Irwin, Jerry
Hoffman, Beverly (Reding) Poncelet, Jim Halling, and Kenny Reding.
Captain Marvel
clarification
Although Captain Marvel has
never been adapted into a feature
film, the News-Record neglected
to mention in two previous articles
that the comic book series was
filmed as a chapter serial released
in 1941. A reader wrote to us, It
is considered by some to be the
greatest serial, from the studio (Re-
public Studios) who made the great-
est serials. The special effects, for
that time, were well done and be-
lievable.

Pine Island High School announces
second Hall of Fame class
PINE ISLAND Pine Island
High School held its second Ath-
letic Hall of Fame ceremony on
Saturday, September 20 in the
school cafeteria. The 2014 induct-
ees include Aaron Johnston, Au-
drey Lenoch, Ben Meyer, Chad
Schroeder, and Dave Sween.
Aaron Johnston
Aaron Johnston was a three-sport
athlete for the Panthers before
deciding to concentrate on bas-
ketball and baseball. He lettered
three times in basketball, earning
all-conference and MVP honors
during his senior season. He was
a co-captain his last year, as the
Panthers captured the Three Riv-
ers Conference Championship. His
overall play and leadership were
instrumental in the Panthers suc-
cess during his career. He is still
listed in the Panther Boys Basket-
ball record Board, as he delivered
112 assists for third most in a sea-
son. His 10-11 free throws in a
game is tied for the second best in
school history. Johnston also
earned letters in baseball his final
three years, with the Panthers win-
ning conference, sub-section, and
section honors his last two years.
He was captain his final season
and hit .368 while coming up with
all-conference and all-sub-section
honors. His two-run home run
against Plainview in the section
championship game keyed a come-
back to earn the Panthers second
straight state tournament appear-
ance during his senior season. The
22 wins during his final season is
still a school record.
Johnston got his initial coach-
ing experience working in the Pin
Island summer baseball program,
but has taken his coaching to a
new level. After playing for a
couple of seasons for Gustavus
Adolphus, he became a student
coach for the Gusties his final two
seasons, where they became the
MIAC champions. From there he
eventually became the assistant
womens basketball coach for
South Dakota State University,
which he did for two years. Since
becoming the head coach, he has
taken the Jackrabbit program to
new heights. His 2003 team won
the Division II National Champi-
onship, by defeating Northern
Kentucky, 65-50. He was named
the Division II National Coach of
the Year. Under Johnstons guid-
ance, the program has transitioned
to the Division I level, and has
continued to be one of the nations
best success stories. He has led
SDSU to eight post-season appear-
ances, with five coming in the
NCAA tournament and three in
the NIT. In 2009, he was named
one of four finalists for the presti-
gious Naismith National Coach
of the Year for Division I. They
are defending Summit League
Champions.
Johnston and his wife, Laurie,
reside in Brookings, South Da-
kota, and are the parents of Dylan
(3), Laney (2), and newborn Jacey.
Audrey Lenoch
Audrey Lenoch graduated in
2002 and established herself as
one of the finest athletes to ever
represent the Panthers. She was
all-conference in volleyball for
three years, lettered in basketball
for four years with another three
years of all-conference recogni-
tion. She is still listed in the Pine
Island basketball record books, as
she is tied for first in three-point-
ers (7) for a game, and listed among
the all-time leaders in points, steals,
and free throw percentage. In soft-
ball she was a dominant force for
five years on the varsity, being
named all-conference four times,
all-section three times, and play-
ing in the Minnesota State All-
Star Softball Series while being
named first team all-state. She hit
.517 for her career. She was a cap-
tain in all three sports she played,
and was named the Female Ath-
lete of the Year as a senior.
Lenoch earned her degree in
nursing at Gustavus Adolphus and
rewrote the record books while
earning four letters for the Gusties
in softball. She was named all-
conference and first team all-re-
gion four times. For three seasons
she was named to the Division III
All-American team, the first soft-
ball payer from Gustavus to do
so. While there, she set numerous
records that placed her in 14 dif-
ferent categories that lead the all-
time school record. Her .544 bat-
ting average in her sophomore
season was second in the nation
for the Division III teams.
These are some of the records
she holds for a season: batting
average .544, most hits 64, doubles
14, triples 8, game winning RBIs
14, slugging percentage .872, to-
tal bases 109, and walks 23. As
during her high school career, she
was a captain of the Gusties.
She is currently working for the
Madonna Towers in Rochester as
a registered nurse.
Ben Meyer

Island High School in 1996, but
before he graduated with honors

athletic history. He captured the
275 pound state title in wrestling

and section titles. He established
the individual record for a season
with 34 walks, and is third in wins
with eight. For his career he is the
all-time walk leader with 64 and
is second in stolen bases with 40.
In addition to his all-conference
honors, he was twice named all-
sub-section and all-section. He con-
cluded his high school career by
being named to the Lions All-Star
Baseball Series and helped the
South to go 3-0. In a 3-2 victory
over the Metro East, Schroeder
was named the Player of the Game
for driving in the game-winning
RBI. He was named the senior
male athlete of the year and also
named the Mel Schroeder Schol-
arship Award winner.
After his outstanding high school
career, he earned his bachelor of

and coaching career at Pine Island in
1969 and has been serving the Pan-
ther School District ever since.
A former Teacher of the Year
in 1982, he taught English in the
high school. Besides his outstand-
ing teaching career, he has had a
huge impact on several sports pro-
grams as an assistant or head coach
over 33 years. In football he as-
sisted Willie Rauen and later Dean
Krambeer, and together they
formed a staff that consistently
had the Panther squad competing
at a high level. The team captured
11 conference titles, three section
championships and finished sec-
ond in the state during the 1981
season. During these years, Coach
Rauen and Coach Krambeer noted
that Coach Sween brought a great
knowledge of the game and had
his players playing fundamentally
sound football in whatever capac-
ity.

Goodhue
By R.D. Aaland
GOODHUE The Goodhue
City Council met on Wednesday
September 24, and the first per-
son to address the council was J.
R. Williams who lives on Third
Street. He stated that due to con-
struction his house has been vi-
brating, walls have cracked, and
the first floor seems to be rising.
City Engineer Andy Brandel said
that road construction is not usu-
ally a cause for structural
damage. City Attorney Richard
Gorman suggested that Williams
hire his own inspector to inspect
the damages, and if there is a claim,
it can be turned in to the citys
insurance company.
Lara Ramthun, also a resident
on Third Street, said she was told
when the project started that there
would be access to their address
every evening. She said that for
several days they were forced to
park on the cross street nearest
their home. One day she found that
her car had been damaged. It was
a minor dent costing $1278 to re-
pair, but she was told that the dam-
age did not appear to be from a
hit-and-run accident. It appeared
to have been hit by a yellow con-
struction vehicle.
The council requested police
officer Josh Smith complete a re-
port and to talk to the contractor.
School bus location
Superintendent Mike Redmond
addressed the council about chang-
ing the location of where the school
buses load after school. The seven
buses currently use Third Avenue,
and with all the traffic it appears
to be hazardous. Redmond would
like to make a change before a
serious accident happens. It was
his suggestion to load students on
Sixth Street on the west side of
the school.
Two problems were brought up
by the council: first, if seven buses
will fit in that area; and second,
how will it affect snow removal?
No decision was made, but it
was decided to see how the buses
would fit first.
Engineers report
In his engineering report,
Brandel said the pool contractor
had made a mistake concerning
re-bar, but it had been straighten
out and the cement for the pool
should be poured before the end
of September. He said that the bath
house bids will be in by October
2, and it looks like there will be
six bidders.
He also reported that the sani-
tary sewer lines on Third Street
are complete, and the water mains
should finished by Friday, Sep-
tember 26. There have been sev-
eral reports of bad smelling water
since the temporary pipes were
put into use along Third Street.
The council, at the urging of the
city attorney, requested that a
meeting be set up with the Third
Street project contractor Jason
Fitzgerald. The date for comple-
tion of the project is October 17,
2014, and there is a penalty of
$1200 per day if it is not done on
time.
Other business
Jessica Larson had a fence re-
quest approved by the council, as
long as it does not go past the
front edge of her house.
A bid from Schumacher Exca-
vating was accepted to rebuild
south Broadway near the Ag Part-
ners fertilizer facility. The total
cost was $38,140.
Public Works Director Steve
Voth was asked to go to Minne-
apolis to check out a rebuilt street
sweeper. The company has three
available, ranging from $18,000
to $35,000. Voth will report on
this at the next council meeting on
October 8.
Augustine farm hosts Corn Plot Day
Roy Hardy, Duane Jonas, and John Augustine show off some well-developed ears of corn at Augustines farm
on Kussmaul Corn Plot Day, September 23.
By R.D. Aaland
GOODHUE Tuesday, Sep-
tember 23 was the Kussmaul Corn
Plot Day at the John Augustine
farm near Goodhue. KDHL Ra-
dio and Kussmaul Seeds dealer
Duane Jonas were there to cel-
ebrate another successful year of
crop farming. Coffee and donuts
were available to those who ar-
rived early, and Augustine cooked
brats for the lunch crowd.
Roy Hardy, area manager of
Kussmaul Seeds in northern Wis-
consin and Minnesota, explained
how the rain this season is making
it difficult to get a good read on
this years productivity. All over
Wisconsin and southern Minne-
sota one area would get an inch of
rain and a mile away there would
be none. Some varieties are do-
ing better than others and he said
he thinks that SB-1098RR is do-
ing best this year. Kussmaul Seeds
will continue to offer the most di-
verse genetic cultivars in corn of
any seed company today. By re-
maining independent, we are not
partnered with any one trait or seed
treatment originator, Hardy said.
Now in its 80th year of growing
and providing seed corn to farm-
ers, Kussmaul still remains an in-
dependent, family seed company.
They invite prospective custom-
ers to join them. Locally, farmers
can call on Duane Jonas.
Kussmual Seeds began when
brothers Al and Rud Kussmaul
began raising and selling seeds in
1934. In 1981, they decided to
continue in production and dis-
continue the retail side of the busi-
ness. By 1989, retail was once again
a part of the business. So for al-
most 80 years, the Kussmaul fam-
ily has been researching, testing,
producing, and delivering high-
quality seeds to American farm-
ers in the Midwest and western
corn belt. Kussmaul Seeds is a
privately held company located
in Mount Hope, Wisconsin.

June l5, l963. While she was teach-
ing in Minnetonka, Tom enrolled
in graduate school at the U of M. He
then took a teaching/coaching
position in Columbia Heights,
where he taught English and
coached football and baseball at

lake, breeze, fresh air, and sun-
sets all gave an appreciation for
Gods creation and
greatness. Fishing, hiking, read-
ing, and visiting were activities
enjoyed at the cabin throughout

An executive said, "I'm optimistic about the
future of business."
"Why, then," asked a friend, "do you have
such a worried look on your face?"
"It pays to worry about your optimism," he
said.
But is doesn't pay to worry about anything.
An old Chinese proverb says, "The legs of the
stork are long, and the legs of a duck are short.
You can't shorten the legs of a stork, and you
can't lengthed the legs of a duck. Why worry?"
To worry about what you can't help is useless.
To worry about what you can help is stupid.
Work, don't worry. Pray, don't pine.
If you trust, you don't worry. If you worry, you
don't trust.

County
By Peter Grimsrud
ZUMBROTA Candidate for
Minnesota Secretary of State Dan
Severson made a campaign stop
Friday, September 26 at the News-
Record office in Zumbrota.
Severson is running against in-
cumbent Mark Richie in a rematch
of the 2010 election.
Severson served the nation as a
Navy Top Gun fighter pilot and as
a Minnesota State Representative
in the Sauk Rapids and St. Cloud
area. He decided to challenge
Ritchie in 2010 in part because of
firsthand knowledge that a large
number of vouching sheets disap-
peared after the election in the Al
Franken recount victory over Norm
Coleman for the United States
Senate seat.
He was frustrated, as a sitting
representative in the district in
question, that Richies office would
not even hear his concern in a matter
that he believes should have been
overseen by them.
Coleman led after the initial
count, but the recount of wrongly
rejected ballots swung the elec-
tion in Frankens favor. The final
count resulted in a 225 vote win
by Franken. He would audit the
voting system and institute a panel
of county attorneys to review vot-
ing complaints.
Severson points to three court-
adjudicated legal violations by the
Secretary of States office over
the last three years to illustrate
how Richie has ignored the
Consitution and legislated from a
non-legislative position.
Dan Severson campaigns
across Goodhue County
If elected, Severson said that he
would establish a volunteer panel
of business leaders tasked with
identifying barriers to business in
Minnesota. He is concerned that
current license requirements
through the Secretary of State of-
fice are hurting and discouraging
new Minnesota businesses. His
goal is to streamline regulations
and reduce fees.
Severson favors and is lobby-
ing for poll books and a voluntary
photo ID at the polls. He said this
would make voting faster, easier,
and more accurate. It also would
allow voters to vote early and any-
where. Only 5% of Minnesota
military cast a vote. Hed make it
a priority to give military service
people an easier way to cast a vote.
Severson established a non-
profit organization called the Mi-
nority Liberty Alliance in an ef-
fort to reach out to displaced eth-
nic groups new to America. Their
objective is to talk about partici-
pation and service in the commu-
nities in which they live and their
country. He said that he would
continue to reach out to these
groups as Secretary of State.
Dan Severson
I am Paula Overby and I am
running for the United States House
in Minnesota, District 2. We need
to get back to basics.
I was born in Redwood Falls
and spent my youth working on
the Farm in the Kenyon/
Wanamingo area. I am a graduate
of the University of Minnesota
Twin Cities with a BA in psychol-
ogy and a second major in com-
puter science. I spent several years
providing community-based men-
tal health services, but most of my
career has focused on quality as-
surance as a data analyst.
I value family first, with two
daughters, ages 37 and 25, and a
son, 21. I was a full-time working
mother. I know the challenge
women face competing for eco-
nomic equality while maintaining
primary responsibility for our chil-
dren, our future generation.
My diverse social background
provides uniquely personal expe-
rience in the combination of ur-
ban and rural issues that charac-
terize Minnesotas second congres-
sional district. My political views
are informed by my community
engagement, providing insight to
why people feel alienated from
government.
There is a presumption that if a
Republican is the problem then a
Democrat must be the solution but
problems in Washington run much
deeper than that. Red or Blue,
Washington is about Wall Street,
focused on wealth and profits.
Thats good for a few wealthy in-
vestors but has not produced eco-
nomic prosperity for the general
Paula Overby
population. For decades we have
seen our local economies con-
sumed by corporate operations with
declining wages and jobs disap-
pearing overseas. Millennials know
that they are not expected to do as
well at their parents. Thats not
right.
In 2014, citizens of Minnesotas
Second Congressional District
have an opportunity to make a real
difference at the polls. I am a clear
alternative to the political paraly-
sis and polarization of a two-party
system that has failed to adapt to
changing demographics, technol-
ogy, and economic globalization.
I stand for government of the
people, open government, and re-
storing local community develop-
ment and investment that promotes
economic sustainability. I stand
for personal freedoms and civil
liberties, opposing the massive
global arms buildup, the costly
and violent war on drugs, and our
failed military engagements in the
Middle East. Social engineering
is not the role for Congress, and
government prohibitions are not
a solution to complex social is-
sues.
Paula Overby is running
for House District 2 seat
