    ReviewVol. 139, No. 4 Wednesday, January 27, 2016 [email protected]

    The Dayton City Council will be voting to guaran-tee a loan up to $100,000 for a medical clinic that would compete with Community Health Center of Dayton at a special meeting Wednesday, Jan. 27, at 7 p.m. at the Day-ton City Hall. Midland Power Company has secured a $100,000 loan for the new Dayton clinic which would be called Dayton Community Health Center. Midland Power secured the funds from USDA but Midland Power isnt guaranteeing the loan. The loan would be guaran-teed by the City of Dayton. Community Health Center of Dayton would continue to operate in Dayton according to CEO Renae Kruckenberg, who is also CEO of Community Health Center of Fort Dodge. Currently Community Health Center of Fort Dodge is sending three nurse practitioners to staff the Community Health Center of Dayton. Other staff members have remained at the health center in Day-ton. But nurse practitioner Shari Buske gave her 90 day notice to quit Community Health Center of Dayton and that became effective at the end of December. She may be the nurse practitioner that heads the new Dayton Community Health Center. People may write their objections or attend the special meeting to voice their opinion.

    The names of the clinics are so similar that con-fusion will occur. According to CHC of Dayton CEO Renae Kruckenburg, the Community Health Center of Dayton did lose money this past year despite government funds that paid for a sizeable portion of medical staff salaries. A $100,000 investment wont be enough to get a new clinic started, said Kruckenberg. That sum wouldnt fund salaries for one year. Other expenses in-clude insurance, equipment, supplies, utilities, rent, and other expenses. She noted that the clinic is independent and isnt aligned with any health care organization. Management expertise and expenses will be a concern for the new clin-ic. I dont think it is feasible for two medical clin-ics to survive in Dayton, she stated. She noted that sev-eral medical clinics had either failed or elected to stop services in Dayton. We are committed to continue our clinic in Dayton, she said. I would like to stress is that Community Health Center of Dayton is committed to helping the patients of Dayton and the surrounding communi-ties, affirmed Renae.

    $100,000 loan sought for second medicalclinic in Dayton; vote taken Jan. 27 City of Dayton would guarantee loan. . .. . .

    by MaryLou Strandberg Mariah (Strandberg) Duszynski loves children and it is evident by what she has chosen as her lifes work. She started the Story Book in home daycare in Story City, Iowa where she lives with her husband Rich and their 2 year old daughter Memphis. For the past 5 years she has worked at various daycares in Ft. Dodge, Ames and Plymouth, Wisc. She recently put this message on her Facebook from the moment I stepped into the daycare world 5 years ago I knew that some day I wanted to work for a 5 star daycare. When I switched from working at a daycare lo-cally to having one in my home, I knew I was the only one standing in my way. It has been very hard this past year with many late nights and mind bending require-ments to reach this level of 5 star. I knew a lot of plan-ning and hard work was ahead of me. A 5 star rating is the highest level in home daycares can achieves. A few requirements to reach this level include the following: Under Health & Safety regulations she had to learn how to help a child that might be having an asthma attack. She is qualified in CPR and First Aid. Her home must be child proof with all outlets covered, no poisonous cleaners, etc. under the sinks and no loose

    coins laying around or in drawers as a child can choke on things like this. One other requirement is that the chil-drens art work must be displayed at their eye level. She was required to write a 20 page emergency plan for each of the following categories flood, fire, tornado and a stranger knocking at the door. In the event

    Who will win WebsterCounty GOP caucuson Monday, Feb. 1?Webster, area countycaucus sites given. . . Who will win the Webster County Republican caucus Monday, Feb. 1, at the Fort Dodge Senior High School, 819 N. 25th St.? Ted Cruz and Donald Trump have been leading the Iowa polls recently. Will Webster County, and area county Republicans follow the polls or will they vote for one of the other GOP candidates? It will be interesting. And the nation will be watching. The Ft. Dodge Sr. High will be the caucus site for people interested in the Webster County Republican caucus including residents of Gowrie, Dayton, Lehigh, Callender, Harcourt and all others. Caucus sites in Boone County are the DMAAC gym, 1125 Hancock Drive; and Ogden Middle School, 313 W. Sycamore. The Calhoun County caucus site for Republi-cans will be the South Central Middle School, Rockwell City,1000 Tonawonda St. The Hamilton County caucus sites are the Stan-hope Library, 600 Main St.; and Webster City Middle School. The caucus process has been used since Iowa became a state in 1846, but Iowas First-in-the-Nation status did not gain its current political and media promi-nence until the early 1970s. Caucus meetings for both political parties are held every other year, and prior to 1972, Iowas caucuses were held during the middle of the primary calendar. A caucus is a meeting of a group of persons in the same political party who select candidates or decide policy. As opposed to a primary, a caucus is a party-organized meeting of neighbors who discuss issues and candidates.

    Legendary Kip, Bud and Pat, starsall part of Lake Robbins history This is a column I wrote in 2009 on the Lake Robbins Balloom near Woodward. At the time Kip Shannon was still working at Lake Robbins at 101 years of age. Armistice Day, or Veterans Day, was celebrat-ed in many forms across the nation and for one unique business in our area, Veterans Day has a special mean-ing. On Armistice Day, 1931, the Lake Robbins Ballroom opened just south of Woodward. Admission was $1 and it was 25 cents for an extra lady. Herbie Kay and his 12-piece orchestra performed that night. The vocalist was Dorothy LaMour, who would later do well in Hollywood. People who went to the ballroom in those early days, and thereafter, would all be part of a glori-ous history. There was a lake formed in 1927 (hence the name) from the waters of Beaver Creek. But drought in 1936 dried up the lake. But the Lake Robbins Ballroom endured the depression, World War II, television, and tre-mendous competition in both centuries. One great sidebar story is that Kip Shannon has literally seen it all. Kip is 101 years young, and she has worked at the Lake Robbins Ballroom for 78 years. Shes the gal who still takes money at the front window and is-sues a ticket for the dance that night. In the swing era, Lake Robbins featured many of the Big Bands including Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, Louis Armstrong, and Rudee Vallee. Later, the Jane Russell Band performed for the 50th anniversary at Lake Robbins. In 1959, Bobby Vee performed and one of his big hits at the time was Devil or Angel. A few years later, Pat Boone performed his hits at Lake Robbins. Things are still hopping at Lake Robbins. On Nov. 6 the band Route 66 performed and about 175 were there. The dance floor, by the way, is huge and has a 3/4 inch maple sufac-ing. This band was country and about 30 people from Miss Kittys in Clive were there. If there is a fountain of youth, perhaps it is at Lake Robbins. Or perhaps it is the dancing that keeps ev-eryone young. Pat and Bud Sternquist, Boone, are dance instructors at Lake Robbins. Pat and Bud are in their sev-enties and they teach dancing six days/nights a week. On the seventh night of the week Bud and Pat go dancing! Incidentally, Bud retired from his day job within this past year. On every Sunday there is ballrooom dancing at Lake Robbins with the Al Welsh orchestra, or some other vintage group, performing. And on Sunday afternoons, Bud and Pat teach dancing. Their upcoming schedule reads like this: Nov. 15, swing; Nov. 22, rumba; Nov. 29, cha-cha; and Dec. 6, tango. Basic I, 3-4 p.m. is $5 per lesson; Basic II, 4-5 p.m. So one can get a beginners and advanced lesson in one afternoon. The foxtrot and waltz lessons have been given this year, but all those dance les-sons will be repeated in the early part of 2010. Bud and Pat, when prodded, will show their tremendous dancing abilities. They are great at all the ballroom dances, but their waltzes together are magical. In instruction, both are good communicators and very patient. In Boone, they do offer one on one instruction, which involves the two of them with one couple, or the two of them with two couples. That works quite well for that one-hour time period. Bud and Pat, by the way, have given dance in-struction at Jefferson, Fort Dodge, Boone, Ames, and Lake Robbins. Many ISU dance classes travel to Lake Robbins to get some extra practice. At Lake Robbins Ballroom the original show-bill of that first Armistice Dance is on display, along with so much other historical memorabilia. Its a step back into time, and yet that magical time still lives. There are still swing dances on Saturday nights, and ballroom dances are on Sundays. And there are other special events too. The swing era is over, and the folks at Lake Robbins didnt listen. Their music and dancing, contin-ues to entertain people. And when the college kids at ISU jitterburg all night long, one realizes that the traditions will continue to thrive.

    The open-ing of the 86th General Assem-bly convened Monday, Janu-ary 11, 2016 and two new Repre-sentatives were sworn in to of-fice: Chuck Holz of LeMars, Iowa, and Tom Moore of Griswold, Iowa. Tues-day, Governor Terry E. Brans-tad delivered his twenty-second Condition of the

    State Address. Wednesday, Chief Justice Cady delivered the Condition of the Judicial Branch Message. Along with the weeks activities, committees held meetings and budget sub-committees met. Our States economy is strong, but growth is slowing. Although there is no economic emergency, with slower growth we are going to have to be diligent in the commitments we make. The state is projected to have $153 million in new revenue next year with nearly $200 million of built in spending increases. Along with the built in increases, we have to find funding for schools. For the past five years, funding for schools has increased $506 million. Also during the past five years, we have fully funded our commitment to schools. It is very important to live up to this commitment. By not do-ing so, local school districts are forced to raise property taxes. Last year, the House of Representatives sent a bill over to the Senate that would increase education funding by $81 million. The Senate can end the uncertainty for schools by passing the bill and sending it to the Governor. Over the next few months, in addition to educa-tion funding, we will be addressing Medicaid Managed Care issues, Water Quality in our State, and many other issues. There is a unified optimism under the dome this year as the session begins. I am honored to represent you at the Statehouse and welcome your questions or concerns.

    By Coach Miller Three Jaguars wrestlers survived the grueling two day twenty-seven team Herb Irgens Invite wrestled at Ida Grove Friday, January 22 and Saturday, January 23rd. Freshman Kyler Jondle and Junior Kaelan Lundberg both finished in fourth place, Jondle at 160 and Lundberg at 170. Sophomore Trey Lawrence placed fifth at 132. With twenty seven teams competing wrestling action starts Fri-day afternoon at 4:30 and finals completing late Saturday night. This tournament definitely indicates where we are at late in the season; our young inexperienced guys strug-gled at times and found out you cant make a mistake in this tournament in the early rounds because if you do your going to be sitting and watching Saturday. Hope-fully, our young guys learned from this and will motivate them to come back stronger next year and place. All three place winners wrestled solid tournaments, placing in the top five indicates your on the right track for the post sea-son run.

    Conference 1/16/2016 On Saturday, January 16th the young Jags trav-eled to Manson to participate in the Twin Lakes Confer-ence Wrestling Tournament. The team showed their age at time during the tournament starting fast but stumbling near the end of the tournament finishing in sixth place in the ten team field. The young Jags used a strong opening round with big wins by freshmen 138 lbs. Carter Fluck-iger, 152 lbs. Ivan Hudson, and 220 lbs. Xavier Nichols and others advancing to the front side of the their brack-ets. After the semi-final round, 170 lbs. Junior Kaelan Lundberg was the lone finalist, eventually suc-cumbing to West Bend Mallards Dalton Knobloch 7-4 in a tough battle. Lundbergs final match was a bit indicative of how our final round went. Lundberg was up by one point going into the third period but gave up some position-

    ing mistakes that cost him the match. In the semis 132 lbs. Trey Lawrence and 160 lbs. also got caught on their backs that cost them big time as they were trying to ad-vance to the finals. Other guys fell into the same rut as we tried to finish the day on a strong note. stated Assistant Coach Jackson Winkelbauer But on a positive note we have everybody coming back next year with the exception of Zeke so hopefully we can continue to climb the lad-der to someday compete for the Twin Lakes Conference Crown.

    Down Memory LaneB Y S A R A D O W N S

    One of my e-mail buddies sends me some cutie items, unusual but interesting tidbits. I saved one of them a little while ago and now have lost it but I paraphrase. It said that when we have a memory from way back that we are not remembering back to the actual time of its ini-tiation but only to the last time we remembered it. Well, folks, I am sorry but I am not buying that 100%. I know that many of us remember significant things over and over again and then there are things that are buried so deep its a wonder we ever bring them back again. Not long ago one came back to me. I believe it was when someone won one of todays mini cars on a game show. It took me to my early youth (around five or six - yes, I do remember things back that far). We were living in St. Charles at the time on the main street but near the very east end on a corner across from the Presbyterian Church. The 1930s streets in small towns were not paved and in Madison County they were rocked rather than grav-eled as that county has been known for its rock quarries. You can imagine the white dust traffic could kick up. In fact, when I see a vehicle here in Des Moines covered with a heavy white film, if I can read it, I check for Madison County license plates. There was a young man in the town who owned one of those little British mini-cars, a rarity in this country let alone in a little down in the hills of a Southern Iowa town. I think it may have been an Austin, a little vehi-cle resembling a BOXLIKE miniature later 1920s/early 1930s Chevy and others of the era. I learned later this young man was known as a wild kid back then. My mom had ceased letting me play out on the sidewalks that bordered our property on two sides of our corner lot and I had to play close to the house or on the side yard away from the corner. It was because this fellow would go a few blocks to the west up around the business district and come racing to the east and as he approached our cor-ner would slam the brakes and steer it so that it made a complete turn around, stirring up a cloud of white dust. He never upset in all the times I saw him do it. There, of course, was no on duty law enforcement and apparently no one made any claims to the sheriff or maybe they did. He either was told to stop or else the fun had gone out of it for him. Back in the 1930s and 40s, small town and rural area kids didnt have their own vehicles and would never have thought of doing anything like that on the rare and special occasions they were privileged to use the family car or pick up. However the farm kids got to drive the trac-tors a lot. And another thing that was a rarity for young people in a rural setting (and probably the cities too) was a motorcycle. There was one person in the vicinity who did get to have one of those two wheeled noise makers those dangerous vehicles that surely were not too safe on the country graveled roads. That was Earl Strand. The Strands lived north and a bit west of Boxholm in Webster County. People talked about him, about his parents spoiling him and his reckless abandon. I dont recall if he had any prob-lems, wrecks and the like. But the motorcycle wasnt the only thing Earl had in out of the ordinary transportation. He had learned to fly and had his own plane! I was never close to it on the ground but believe it was a small two pas-senger one. He flew around the area and from our place on the farm could see the plane quite low as he landed in a pasture on his parents farm slightly to the northeast of us. People talked about Earl and tsked, tsked but behind all that I would imagine that there were young folks and his peers who were a bit envious. In todays world the rural areas and urban ones are not that far apart, in miles or life styles and it is not unusual to see motorcycles all around town streets and on highways. I have a son who has owned motorcycles since he was 16 and has had no serious accidents that this mother is aware of. That first cycle, a Honda, was hot-wired and stolen out of our driveway. It was later found in a deep ditch a couple counties away, along with some abandoned camping equipment. It had been the weekend of the wild Wadena Rock Festival (1970), copied after the infamous Woodstock Music Festival (1969). Because of the camping gear we surmised the bike may have been used as transportation to that event. He finally got his dream bike, a Harley when well into his 50s. While I did ride with him on the Honda, I have not gotten the cour-age to hop on the Harley. Another e-mail tidbit recently received from my source stated, I have a brain like the Bermuda Triangle. Information goes in, never to be found again. Thats not entirely true. It just comes out in pieces and like an old jigsaw puzzle sometimes a piece or two is missing or the found ones dont fit together perfectly now. But thats how it is and I hope you enjoy reading them even if they may be a bit fact, a bit fiction and perhaps even a bit imagi-native or erroneous. I encourage everyone to store their

    Flying on the roads and in the sky...memories well and be prepared in fifty, sixty, seventy years or so to dig em out and share with your new gen-erations.

    Amber, Riley, Autumn, and Brayden Sorenson laid to restA community mourns.. In a house fire that occurred in the early morning on Sunday, Jan. 17, four lives were tragically lost. Mother, Amber Sorenson, 27 and her three children Riley Soren-son, 9; Autumn Sorenson, 6; and Brayden Sorenson, 4 died in the fire. John Sorenson, husband of Amber and father of Riley, Autumn, and Brayden, was working at the time of the fire. Upon arrival, Boone County Sheriffs deputies found the home fully engulfed by fire. Boxholm firefighters arrived around 1:30 a.m. and requested help from surrounding fire departments including Gowrie, Lehigh, Pilot Mound, Boone, Dayton Grand Junction, Paton, and Ogden. The weather made fighting this fire extremely difficult. We froze up three pumpers, three tankers and two fire hydrants, one water tower and drained another wa-ter tower. Said Chief Huffman. On January 17 and 18, 2016, autopsies were per-formed at the Iowa Office of the State Medical Examiner by Dennis Klein, MD (Deputy Chief State Medical Ex-aminer). The cause of death for each of the deceased was determined to be due to smoke inhalation. The preliminary investigation showed the fire was caused by a space heater in the screened-in porch at the rear of the home where the family kept their pet rabbits. The young mother and her three children were laid to rest Saturday, Jan. 23. Today was such a mixture of emotions one fu-neral and four caskets should never be! A family devas-tated and nothing we can do to make it better. said Terry Towne, Gowrie EMS. I am however touched beyond belief for the people who gave up their Saturday to help serve. Thank you to Callender, Harcourt, Duncombe, and Gowrie EMS, both past and present, my heart is proud of the family that we are. Terry also added. A GoFundMe page has been set up to help the Sorenson family. As of Sunday Jan. 24 the page had raised over $50,000.

    Roger, Judy Smithhave great 80th birthdaycelebration in Lehigh Roger and Judy Smith, Lehigh, celebrated their 80th birthdays Saturday, Jan. 16, at the Lehigh Commu-nity Center. Their children Kathy, Julie and Bob organized the party. About 150 people including family members, friends and neighbors attended the special event. Roger has been in the construction business and has also done trucking over the years. He continues to do some construction in his retirement years. I like to do some construction at a pace that is convenient for me, Roger said. I have some people who consistently hire me for certain projects. Roger has been involved with the Lehigh His-torical Society which includes their depot building at the end of the downtown and near the Des Moines River. We have the funds now to construct a bath-room in our historical building and we will be doing that this year, Roger said. Roger and Judy are very involved with their family and friends. After the three hour birthday cel-ebration in Lehigh they attended a fifties dance in Fort Dodge with friends and family members. Eddie Simp-son, Boxholm, was with his band and Eddie sang several Elvis songs. Roger and Judy enjoy their home in Lehigh which is in the timber. They enjoy the many birds and animals that they see near their home.

    It Pays to Advertise!

    We are indebted to Will E. Durrell, of Ames, Iowa, for this article, about the riot in town, in 1894. He so kindly sent it to us, after mentioning it in the Review. Several have told about the riot, so we had a small account, but the following detailed paper clipping will reveal the full story - a real Western Tale! Bill Powers and Bill Umsted were eye witnesses to the scene. They told of the dance as being the Fire-mans Ball on New Years Eve. Bill Umsted stood a safe distance across the street, behind a large cottonwood tree, while the fighting was going on in the hall. Later, he and Will Burnett, cau-tiously ventured over to the restaurant. Bill Umsted told of a trap door in the floor of the restaurant, were the fellows and girls took refuge during the shooting. After the fellows had been jailed, townsmen pa-

    raded the streets all night, with guns guarding the jail. Sam Burnquists father sold fence posts in his business, and he donated a goodly supply to build a fire in the street to keep the men warm, while guarding the prisoners. In the morning, the prisoners were hustled off, under heavy guard, to the M. and St. L. train, which took them to Fort Dodge to await trial. The group taken to jail according to information given this paper, included the following: - B. Brady, A. Winters, D. Winters, W. Phipps, H. Barber, and H. Hamilton, plus others who were later dismissed for lack of evidence. The following is from a clipping taken from the Review early in January, 1894. The dance that was held at Burnquists hall New Years night progressed quietly until just before supper when a commotion was heard in the north end of the hall. A. Winters had got to talking loud about a hat. John Gustafson tried to quiet him but the talking was only the signal for the cleaning out of the hall, before determined upon by these Boone county hoodlums. In a moment chairs were flying and women were screaming and there was a general rush to get out of the hall. Gustafson fought them bravely and at one time had two of them down when a third hit him over the head with a chair and knocked him down. Gustafson was beat-en until he had to be dragged out of the hall. After getting possession of the hall the miscreants proceeded to make it a complete wreck and for fifteen minutes the noise of smashing chairs and breaking glass as the chairs were thrown through the large two sash windows was terrific. There were a few spectators on the stage who saw the whole performance but did not dare to come to the help of Gustafson. After accomplishing the work they went to Day-ton for supper. By this time the citizens were aroused and came upon the scene to the help of Marshal Larson, who was trying to arrest one of the ring leaders in the restaurant. Frank Dowd, the picture of a cowboy and armed to the teeth, came in and told the one who was arguing with, Paris Winters, to throw up his hands. Instead of complying he put one hand behind him and got Franks revolver on his head with such force that he came to the floor. A second time he made an offensive movement and a second time felt the weight of the revolver. He then sur-rendered and was turned over to the marshal. At this moment Frank discovered Dave Winters, a brother of Paris coming with a knife and threatening fire vengeance. Frank seized him by the arm and again the revolver came down and the man with it. The hand that held the knife got the right of Franks big boot and the knife flew from it and was taken care of. While looking after him Paris was heard to say give me that gun and I will clear the room. He then grabbed the gun from the marshal and Frank heard a shot behind him and turning around he found that Paris had shot the marshal and stood threatening him with the gun. Another grab and Frank had the gun and again Franks revolver as a club descended and this time Paris had enough. Dave however was up and coming and had to test the weight of the revolver before he discovered he was not in it. The whole crowd then submitted to arrest and were and were taken to the callaboose. There were nine in all. Not all of them were engaged in the riot but all had come in the crowd and were more or less drunk. Marshal P. J. Larson was shot in the right hip by his own gun in the hands of Paris Winters, the ball a 40 calibre, passing through him and lodging just under the skin just below and to the left of the nave. He was carried home and cared for by Dr.s Mulliken and Coats. In the morning he was in a very bad condition and made his anti mortem statement before M. D. OConnell. In the evening a surgical operation was performed by Dr.s Seymore, Mulliken and Coats. They found eight bullet wounds in the intestines and so much inflammation that there was no possible chance of his re-covery. He died Wednesday morning at 1 oclock. Thus was sacrificed as good a man and as pure a man as we had in Dayton. It was thought best to send the whole gang of rioters to Fort Dodge for trial and Deputy Sheriff Gus-tafson came down in the afternoon and took them away. This gang has long terrorized the north end of Boone county and the most if not all of them have figured in criminal suits there without number. The only mistake Dowd made was that he did not furnish the town a couple of corpses instead of sub-jects to figure on Webster county court dockets.
