Happy Homecoming! New traditions A YEAR IN REVIEW made in 2016

Hettinger broke with tradition this year because of the shortened school week and the renovations taking place in the school. In the process, school pride and spirit were ignited, and new traditions began. Dress up days were continued this year and the Student Council was very creative in selecting themes for each day. Throwback Thursday brought apages lot of 8-9 interesting costumes out of local closets and a good deal of reminiscing by staff. Friday was Nighthawk Pride in the entire school; students and staff wore their Nighthawk colors and clothing and walked to the football field to culminate the week of celebration. Other days included Duo Day and Wacky Wednesday. Nighthawks.

Record Editor It was Homecoming last week. But integrated in the week-long school festivities was a bit of family nostalgia for the DaFoes in Hettinger. On Thursday, Sept. 8, the dress-up theme was ‘Throwback Thursday’ and each class was given an era to tailor their outfits around. The freshmen were given the 30s, and Mason DeFoe’s family—DeFoe is a freshman at Hettinger High School—knew exactly how to get him aligned with the theme, with the help of a late relative. Mason’s late great-grandfather Clyde Edward ‘Eddy’ DeFoe played cityleague baseball in the 1930s after he graduated high school, and his uniform was still in the possession of the family. “When they got 30s, my husband knew they [Chuck and Jan DeFoe— Mason’s grandparents] had the baseball uniform still,” Mason’s mother, Heidi DeFoe said.

continue his baseball career. A friend recruited him to play for the Dickinson city league team. It worked out nice because Eddy was a catcher, and his friend (identified only by his last name on a baseball signature, Schaaf ) was a pitcher. Jan DeFoe said they still have Eddy’s catcher’s mitt. “After high school they played these city league games just to keep playing,” Jan DeFoe said. The uniform had been in storage since Eddy stopped playing, and Jan and Chuck took possession of it around 1982 when Eddy passed away. “He had it in his possession [since] the years he played,” Jan DeFoe said.

You want to build a WHAT?

Editor’s note: This is the first of five articles tracing the emergence of the Yellowstone Trail through Adams County and Hettinger, ND, in an effort to increase awareness of this historical roadway and to focus on the important part that Hettinger and Adams County, ND, played in that effort. In 1912, as the automobile was becoming popular, few good, all-weather roads existed and certainly, no long-distance, carefully marked roads. Out here in the wind-swept, flat-topped butte country, roads were still dirt trails, cut out of gumbo and sand by meandering horse-drawn wagons. But America is built on dreams and J. W. Parmley of Ipswitch, SD, had a dream. He dreamed of a good road for the emerging horseless carriages that would carry people and goods from Ipswitch, SD, where he lived, east to Aberdeen, SD. That dream quickly expanded west to Mobridge, SD, then further west to Hettinger, ND, and on to Yellowstone National Park. It ultimately became the first passable roadway from Minneapolis, MN, to Yellowstone, to Seattle, WA. And thus, the yellow stones (but more on that, later). What became known as the Yellow-

Hettinger citizen O.T. Peterson, the first secretary/treasurer of the Yellowstone Trail Association, stands by one of the natural sandstone, coneshaped rocks used to mark the trail across northwestern South Dakota and southwestern North Dakota. Three Hettinger men were board members of that first Association. stone Trail highway, now US Highway 12, grew to 3,700 miles long, beginning in Plymouth, MA, and ending at Puget

Sound, WA. It still has the distinction of being the first transcontinental highway in the northern states and the first highway of any kind built completely without Federal funds. The southwest corner of North Dakota--from the state line southeast of Haynes, ND, to the state line west of Marmath, ND--is the only place in the state the Yellowstone Trail Highway exists. Three men from Hettinger, ND, played prominent roles in the establishment of the association and in its subsequent work and development that led to the completion of the Yellowstone Trail roadway. They were O. T. Peterson, who served as the first secretary/ treasurer; Dr. John G. Johns, Hettinger’s first physician who was on the Publicity Committee; and George N. Keniston, Hettinger’s first minister of the Congregational Church, who served as Traveling Representative. They were part of the group of men Parmley gathered from each county along the Trail to create the Yellowstone Trail Association in October 1912. From the first, the building of the road was a “grass roots effort,” employing no one, but involving everyone in the small communities along the roadway.

West River Health Services tackling Scrubs Camp again By TED UECKER

WRHS Foundation West River Health Services is once again planning to offer a one-day “Scrubs Camp” for freshmen and sophomores to learn about medical-related careers in an interactive, hands-on way. The philosophy behind this program is that if students understand at an early age the wide range of options in health care, not only are they more likely to consider a health care career, but by being made aware of career opportunities in their rural area, they may consider returning to it after completing higher education. Gosh knows we desperately need more of our kids to return to

our communities, share their skills, and raise families here. Last March, West River Health Services partnered with Scranton and Hettinger Public Schools, inviting over 50 freshmen and sophomores to attend Scrubs Camp at the Hettinger Armory. With over 12 area presenters sharing 25-minute sessions on their own experience in training and education and what it is like to work in a rural community, and really getting the kids to roll up their sleeves with hands-on projects, it was a terrific experience for all. The students were busy dissecting cow brains, giving shots to oranges, handling the Jaws of Life, suturing chicken breasts, operating the fire hose and various oth-

er interactive activities. Let’s be clear: Scrubs Camp is not a career fair – rather it is an interactive activity led by local health care professionals. This coming spring, March 29, 2017, over 60 students from Mott and Lemmon Public Schools will make their way to the Hettinger Armory for Scrubs Camp. The Scrubs Camp Committee, led by Patty Ness, Wellness Coordinator at West River Health Services, has been busy forming partnerships with the public schools, Economic Development offices, Chamber of Commerce, Fire and Ambulance Services and other community partners from Lemmon and Mott. In addition, there has been an initial contact made to po-

tential presenters from those communities as well. Thus far, the initial support of the Scrubs Camp program has been terrific! West River Health Services is currently in the process of applying for a $2,500 grant for the Scrubs Camp program from the Rural Collaborative Opportunities for Occupational Learning (RCOOL-Health). In late October, the grants winners will be notified. If you would like to be part of this program, please contact Patty Ness at 701-5676177. As always, West River Health Services is here for you – and our area youth, who potentially are the future leaders of our rural communities.

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD

HOMECOMING FROM PAGE 1 of games in the gym each class was required to compete in activities designed to increase school spirit. Doors and lockers were decorated, video lip syncs were performed and each class prepared a class flag. These competitions reflected the theme of “Go for Gold” a reflection of the Olympics. Medals were awarded and points tallied. The students walked to the football field on Friday and competed in the tug of war, they were treated to speeches and in the end the Senior Class, (class of 2017) won the Golden Slipper with

a grand total of 275.2 points. The freshmen came in second and the juniors third. The seventh grade class was the fourth place team and up until the tug of war gave the senior class a run for their money. The week ended with the football team winning, the varsity volleyball performing quite well at the Carrington Tournament, the cross country team making a strong showing and Robotics attending their kickoff day. Good luck to all the Hettinger students in their various endeavors throughout the school year.

FROM PAGE 1

She said that Eddy was very meticulous about his possessions and that the uniform was in very good condition. The material appears to be wool and cotton, she said. The uniform fit Mason very well, Heidi DeFoe said. “It wasn’t that big,” Heidi said. “It didn’t fit too bad… it wasn’t overly huge on him.” Heidi said Mason used his own baseball belt, and just cinched it up and said that worked well for him. The uniform came with a hat, but she said that it didn’t really fit Mason, so he wore a different cap. Mason’s grandparents were excited to see him wear the old-time uniform, and Jan said that “nostalgic is there right word,” to describe the feeling they got witnessing the uniform come back to life from their grandson.

OPINION By DEAN MEYER

Guest Columnist

Hello, I’m sure by now everyone in North Dakota has seen or heard how Carson Wentz did in his first NFL game. If you live in another state, you may not be aware. Carson was the quarterback at NDSU. He’s a Bismarck kid. He was the second pick in the last NFL draft and chosen by the Philadelphia Eagles. In his first start in the NFL he received high marks, threw 2 touchdown passes, and they won. We all grow up being heroes in our backyard. I imagine every boy or every girl has stood in their back yard and made the winning touchdown, basket, kill, block, or hit. We’ve all pitched a perfect game or danced a perfect dance. We’ve all heard the crowd cheer when our name was called and all closed our eyes and rode Little Yellow Jacket or roped that 4 second steer. We’ve made that 16-second barrel run or a 19 second pole run. I was never that good. I roped a steer in twelve seconds once. I scored 28 in the bronc riding at Killdeer on the Fourth of July. Which, by the way, still holds the record as the lowest score ever reported at a pro rodeo. I was the slowest guy on a

slow nine-man football team. I was the sixth man on a pretty dang good basketball team. At least the first five were pretty dang good. And my mother always told me they were good because they had to beat me in practice. That’s how mothers are. The first basketball game I played in was when I was in the first grade. The old gym in Berthold. The kind of gym where the ceiling was too low for a long set shot. The out of bounds line was six inches from the wall. The circle around the free throw line intersected the center circle. You’ve seen pictures. Anyway it was fun night. The first grade was playing the second grade. I was a cowboy. Or wanted to be. I didn’t have tennis shoes or basketball trunks. I informed the teacher that I didn’t have trunks or shoes to wear. She informed me that I could just play in shorts and stocking feet. Shorts! Shorts! The only shorts I had were underwear. And I’ll be damned if this cowboy was going to run out in front of a couple hundred people in his underwear! Man, they would see my legs! So, you can imagine my parents pride when the Berthold first grade came running from the locker room. I was easy to pick out. I was the little skinny kid wearing his long underwear! I’ll just stick to dreaming of being great. Later, Dean Dean Meyer is a former state legislator and currently ranches in southwest North Daktoa.

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD

Unlawful Praying That’s Life By TONY BENDER

Guest Columnist

In America, where protest is in our DNA, suddenly it’s a limited option. Presumably, you can still dress up as a Native American, commandeer a British freighter and throw tea overboard, you just can’t be a real Native American in the process. Oh my, a whole bunch of Native Americans are camped at Cannonball, praying for God to smite a pipeline. To be fair, there have been 38 arrests. In five and a half months. Out of a camp that’s swelled to as many as 5,000, as people come and go. It’s easy to imagine that, when you count those who have come and gone, tens of thousands of people have protested without getting arrested. As protests go, that’s pathetic. That hasn’t been the narrative. Here are some of the words and phrases used by officials in recent weeks: Lt. Gov. Drew Wrigley: “Very serious. Unlawful protest. Complicated and extremely dangerous. Very, very concerning. Hundreds of criminal acts. Life-threatening federal crimes. Talk of weapons. Beyond threatened. That (horse) is an assault with a deadly weapon. Illegal protest action. Endangering themselves, the public and law enforcement. Rumors. Violation. Seriously question. Violence, threats and

obstruction. Unlawful, threatening intimidating, dangerous.” And that’s just one interview with The Grand Forks Herald. Must be some badass praying. In an interview with Mike McFeely on WDAYRadio, Wrigley dismissed the idea of state officials meeting on site with the protesters as a show of good faith. With various factions, who would you meet with, he wondered. Yet, in the Herald interview, he spoke of excellent communication. “We know these folks. Standing Rock Chairman Dave Archambault and the governor speak regularly and comfortably... There’s a friendship there, or a kinship...” I don’t know how many times I have called out the National Guard on my kin. And for good reason. Once, my mom chained herself to the lawnmower. Point is, the state has excellent non-communication with activists. Here are some more words and phrases ... Morton County Sheriff ’s Department: “Launched a march. Illegally blocked traffic. Became violent. Knives were pulled. Jabbed with a wooden fence post. Eight large knives. Assaulted by protester on a horse. Treated for injuries. More like a riot. Aggression and violence. Unlawful and should not be repeated.” Heck, that’s a quiet night in Chicago. After the carnage, amidst the blood and gore depicted in this single report of the storming of the Bastille... “No arrests were made...” Nice work. Correction: They issued a warrant for Democracy

Now! reporter Amy Goodman, who had the foresight to falsify gigabytes of video just to make it seem like the second-hand reports from paid pipeline security guards might have been, you know, exaggerated. This dangerous, unlawful, unAmerican, oil-hating, disrespectful trespassing by reporters has to end. We should get rid of the First Amendment altogether. It doesn’t seem proper gun rights should come second, anyway. For a while, I thought the report was about World of Warcraft, or Iwo Jima. Only with women and children jamming their limbs into the mouths of defenseless canines. I don’t know if anyone planted a flag on a bulldozer, but we know they used flags as lethal weapons of mass destruction against innocent puppies. And we

Ben Franklin will be in Bismarck for Pulitzer event Omdahl By LLOYD OMDAHL

Ben Franklin, whose physiognomy adorns the Pulitzer medal, will be in North Dakota Sept. 24 to appear at the 100th Anniversary Celebration of Pulitzer prizes in journalism and history. Sponsored by the North Dakota Humanities Council, the appearance will take place at the Legacy High School in Bismarck. The Pulitzer prizes were created by Joseph Pulitzer, a newspaper tycoon who owned the New York World and the St. Louis PostDispatch. When I was in journalism school, we spoke with awe about the PostDispatch. Three North Dakota newspapers have been winners of Pulitzer prizes. The Bismarck Tribune edged out the San Francisco News in 1938 for its series on the droughts of the 1930s, “Self-Help in the Dust-Bowl.” The Fargo Forum won the award in 1958 for distinguished local reporting on the tornado that struck the Golden Ridge section of town, destroying 100 blocks, 319 homes, 15 businesses and killing 10 people. The Grand Forks Herald won the prize in 1998 for its brilliant coverage of the flood of the Century, led by Editor Mike Jacobs, who produced the daily newspaper out of a grade school in

Manvel without skipping a beat. Without Jacobs, there would have been no Pulitzer Prize. Beside the appearance of Ben Franklin, the 100th Anniversary Celebration will include a day full of presentations by distinguished authors of Pulitzer-quality writings. At 9:45 a.m., Editor and Publisher Mike Jacobs will address “The Importance of News Literacy,” a timely topic considering the importance of discernment in ferreting through the myriad of undisciplined news and propaganda sources used in this presidential campaign. At 10 a.m., Pulitzer Finalist Eric Schlosser will address the nuclear weapons crisis and the risks of human error, a chilling analysis of past failures in managing the nuclear buildup. At 11:10 a.m., Elizabeth Fenn, Pulitzer winner in history, will present the keynote address, discussing the history of the Mandan Indians after having travelled throughout western North Dakota doing on-theground research. After noon lunch, Ben Franklin will appear at 1 p.m. If he turns out to be a no-show, the programmers have GregRobin Smith, nationally-acclaimed Chautauqua impersonator, standing by. Rumor has it that Smith is actually the better performer of the two. At 2 p.m., Pulitzer Winner Sonia Nazario will be interviewed about her reporting on the trials of immigrant children in their travels from Latin American countries. Her presentation will put faces on the immigration issue that has been

kicked around Washington and the political campaigns for 20 years. At 3:10 p.m., Pulitzer Winner Jacqueline Jones will be interviewed by Mark Trahant, the Charles Johnson Chair UND Professor of Journalism, about her book, “The Myth of Race from the Colonial Era to Obama’s America,” another pertinent topic for a time of racial tension. At 4:20 p.m., Pulitzer Winner Seymour Hersh will discuss the role of the press in challenging corruption and holding accountable those who exploit power. Hersh was the international reporter who uncovered the My Lai Massacre by American troops in Viet Nam. Hersh will be followed with an interview with Pulitzer Winner Mike Jacobs. With this distinguished cast of Pulitzer-caliber authors and presenters addressing hot-button topics of the day, the 100th Anniversary Celebration offers a rare opportunity for North Dakotans to share in a timely dialogue with leading scholars. Registration will be accepted right up to September 24. Considering the caliber of participants, ticket prices are a bargain and are variable so contact gamechangernd.com. For folks who can’t be there in person, the program will be mainstreamed free of charge at gamechangernd. com . Lloyd Omdahl was the 34th Lt. Gov. of North Dakota under Gov. George Sinner. He has also worked as a professor of Political Science for the University of North Dakota. His column has been featured in newspapers in the state.

haven’t even touched on the early reports of “pipe bombs” and the sharks with frickin’ laser beams. The important thing is now the world will be safe from criminal masterminds, like Amy Goodman and graphic artist Jill Stein, who improved her Q rating by spray painting a bulldozer blade pink. Granted, that one will be hard to deny in court. More arrests may follow. They’re bringing in Mr. Ed for questioning. It’s well known in equestrian circles he is a devotee of Saul Alinsky. Sure, some people think the official language might have been inflammatory and counterproductive— maybe even a wee bit hysterical. But, who are we to judge? Heck, not even judges get to judge on this deal. This kind of unrest is

exciting for the troops. After George Armstrong Dalrymple activated the National Guard, gung-ho state officials could be seen walking around with woodies. And some of them have really big hands. There will be no debate about bathroom assignments. Thus emboldened, the other politicians weighed in. “I’ve been following the situation closely and am awaiting the court’s decision,” Pre-Governor Doug Burgum said forcefully. “North Dakota needs to be a state of opportunity and welcoming to energy expansion with a safe, smart approach.” His statement vaulted Burgum into a league of memorable oration with the likes of Churchill, Lincoln, FDR, and my cat. It also answered the question climate change scientists have been wrestling with—

What happens when a void meets a vacuum? Burgum seems passionate. Does anyone know how big Doug’s hands are? I don’t know how long North Dakotans can endure this much unlawful praying. I was there. Trespassing. Vote for me. The air was so thick with prayers, I swear I heard a voice say, “Lighten up a bit, folks. I got this.” I was in a Spiffy Biff at the time. There was Angel Soft bathroom tissue in there. I think it was a sign. It may have been the voice of God. It might have been Obama. © Tony Bender, 2016 Tony Bender is the former Editor of the Adams County Record and current President of Redhead Publishing in Ashley, ND.

Western Horizons Assisted Living Center’s tenants “Rock” National Assisted Living Week

Western Horizons Assisted Living Center was decorated in a 50s theme for National Assisted Living Week. (Photos by Cole Benz/The Record)

By TED UECKER

WRHS Foundation Western Horizons Assisted Living Center, your local assisted living center in north Hettinger, celebrated National Assisted Living Week, Sept. 11-17, with a “Rockin’ 50s” theme. The center was decorated with 50s records, a jukebox, and diner memorabilia! You knew they were rockin’ the minute you stepped inside the facility. Established by the National Center for Assisted Living in 1995, National Assisted Living Week provides a unique opportunity for residents, their loved ones, staff,

volunteers and the surrounding communities to recognize the role of assisted living in caring for America’s seniors. The annual observance encourages assisted living communities around the country to celebrate the individuals they serve and to educate the public about long term care. Your local Western Horizons Living Center staff did just that and then some! On Sunday, Sept. 11, the tenants celebrated Grandparents Day by bringing out pictures of their grandchildren and great grandchildren. All of the tenants participated by sharing their pictures of loved ones amongst each other. Thereafter, the Holland Center Church

members arrived with song and celebration for the tenants. On Monday, Sept. 12, Elvis music was playing all day long throughout the Center, with 50s trivia to boot. At coffee hour, the tenants enjoyed Elvis’s favorite snack – peanut butter and banana sandwiches! Mmmmmmm! On Tuesday, Sept. 13, a “Rise & Shine” pancake and sausage breakfast was prepared and served to the tenants by the staff. We heard it was amazing! On Wednesday, Sept. 14, the staff led all of the tenants in a surprise activity – making homemade aprons. We’re not sure if many of the men partook in this activity,

but we’re certain they enjoyed the old fashioned malts afterwards! As did everyone in attendance. On Thursday, Sept. 15, the tenants were asked to “dress up” in 50s regalia if they chose – then enjoy a “drive up” supper (weather permitting) of hot dogs, French fries and an ice cold soda. The congenial staff were not on roller skates, but they did their best to serve the hungry tenants a terrific meal. Lastly, on Friday, Sept. 16, each of the tenants enjoyed fresh popcorn in the TV Room while watching the movie “Grease.” Nothing quite like a little John Travolta and Olivia Newton John! What a wonderful rockin’ week

at Western Horizons Assisted Living! Special thanks to Diane Henderson and her crew, especially Kira, for developing and carrying out such a fun week for their tenants. They certainly celebrated the residents they serve. If anyone is interested in learning more about our Western Horizons Assisted Living Center or might enjoy a guided tour, please contact Diane Henderson at 701-567-6172. Currently there are no vacancies for our 16, two-bedroom apartments, but we do have a waiting list, which we contact immediately whenever we have openings. Thank you for supporting our community.

SPORTS Night Hawks get win to cap off Homecoming week By COLE BENZ

Record Editor Damon Cornelius had a big night for the Night Hawks as they trounced the visiting Beach Buccaneers 40-8 on an evening when Hettinger and Scranton celebrated their homecoming week. Cornelius had two scores and racked up 91 rushing yards and emerged as another threat in the Night Hawk the back field, joining Hudson Pierce and Isaiah Kludt. After an early injury scare Pierce carried the ball nine times for 49 yards and Kludt racked up 102 yards on 17 carries. Pierce scored on a 2-yard pass and Kludt would end up scoring after he picked up a Beach fumble and took it to the end zone. The score was low after the first half, the Night Hawks only held an 14-0 lead. But Hettinger/Scranton broke open the flood gates after the half and scored four times in the third quarter, extending their lead to 40-0 by the time the fourth quarter started. The Bucs finally got on the board late in the fourth quarter with a 3-yard rush by Kaden Pelton, but Het-

tinger/Scranton head coach Randy Burwick had already substituted most of his starters for second and third groups. Normally a rush-first team, the Night Hawks scored their first two touchdowns in the air, and a third one was called back on a penalty. Quarterback Jaxon Mellmer threw a 9-yard touchdown to Kyle Burwick in the first quarter, and a 2-yard pass to Pierce in the second quarter. Mellmer finished the game with 55 yards on 6-for-18 passing. He spread the ball around, completing passes to five different receivers. Jacob Dix caught two passes for 24 yards and added an interception. Kludt caught one pass for 12 yards. Burwick caught one pass for nine yards, Pierce caught one pass for two yards and added an interception. Jordan Dilse caught one pass for eight yards. The Night Hawks improved to 1-1 in the Region 5 standings, and face off against the Grant County/ Flasher Storm at Flasher High School on Friday, Sept. 16. The Storm are coming off a win against fellow Region 5 opponent Mott-Regent Wildfire.

Harding Co. downs Night Hawks in three sets By SHELDON CHRISTENSON For The Record

Harding County took on the Hettinger/Scranton Night Hawks in volleyball action at Scranton on Tuesday, Sept. 13 and lived up to their South Dakota record of 7-1. The Night Hawks have shown so far that they are an improved team, but the Ranchers were too much in this match. The Ranchers are an experienced team that has five seniors who are regu-

lars. This includes the top three in the height department. Leadiang the way for the Night Hawks in kills were Alyssa Andress and Brianna Robinson with five, and Abbie Kludt and Molly Holt added four. In the digs department, Andress had 11, Tayler Burwick had eight and Robinson accumulated five. Burwick also had 10 assists and Calli Anderson had eight. The Night Hawk C team had no problem in winning their match by

scores of 25-10 and 25-13. The first set the tone for the match as they jumped out to a 7-0 lead behind the serving of Talia Carter and some good returns by Ebony Musonda. The Ranchers came out on top in the junior varsity but both sets were back and forth. The Night Hawks were leading at one point in the first set by a score of 15-8 but the Ranchers fought back pulled out a 25-23 win. The second set was also a battle with visitors escaping with a 26-24 win.
