Ida Hunt_____________________________________
Ida G. Hunt, age 90, of Midland,
S.D., died Tuesday, February 5,
2013, at the Philip Nursing Home.
Ida Gertrude Fosheim was the
youngest child born to Thor and
Gjertina Fosheim on the farm near
the Deep Creek Church in Haakon
County. Anna Grandma
Nesheim, a close neighbor, served
as the midwife. Born on June 10,
1922, Ida remained at home and
attended all her grade school years
at the Stone Butte School. Starting
school was difficult as only Norwe-
gian was spoken at home. She was
confirmed in 1936 by Rev. O.H.
Olson at the Deep Creek Church.
Ida was a life-long member of the
Deep Creek and Midland
Lutheran Churches.
Ida graduated from the eighth
grade, receiving top honors. She
went to high school in Midland
where she worked for room and
board staying with the Pete El-
rods, Rev. O.H. Olson, and her sen-
ior year with her sister, Mrs.
Emma Root. Ida was chosen as
Carnival Queen during her junior
year, and was valedictorian of her
senior class.
Following graduation from high
school, Ida was married to Lyle
Hunt at Butte, Neb., on September
4, 1940. To this union 10 boys and
eight girls were
born. They lived in
Midland until Roy
was born, then
moved to Philip
where Lyle worked
with the WPA for
three months. In
the spring of 1947,
they purchased the
A.C. Behl Hard-
ware & Grocery
business which be-
came known as
Hunts Hardware.
Lyle sold the gro-
cery line in 1950
and the hardware
business in 1956,
taking up carpen-
ter work.
Ida was the Mid-
land News corre-
spondent for the
Pioneer Review
and the Pierre
Capital Journal for
the years 1967 to
2002, and also
served as the Mid-
land Lutheran Church secretary
doing the newsletter and bulletins.
She belonged to Rebecca Circle,
New Century Club, PTA, Senior
Citizens Center, and the See & Do
Club. A special highlight of Idas
life was when she won a trip to
Nashville, taking her first airplane
flight.

Norma J. Kinsley_______________________________
Norma Jeane Kinsley, age 91, of
Murdo, S.D., passed away Mon-
day, February 4, 2013, at the
Philip Nursing Home.
Norma Jeane Ernst was born
August 5, 1921, at her parents
farm south of Draper, the daugh-
ter of Adolph and Florence (Cahill)
Ernst. She attended Dunkel grade
school and, as was common then,
she skipped one of the lower
grades. She graduated from
Draper High School in 1938. She
then attended St. Johns McNa-
mara School of Nursing in Rapid
City and became a registered
nurse. Part of her training was in
Milwaukee, Wis.
After working a short time at
the Murdo Hospital, she married
the love of her life, Densel Fat
Kinsley on June 25, 1943, an an-
niversary date they shared with
her parents and Kip and Jean.
They were loving partners for 52
years until his death on July 10,
1995.
Norma was a devoted wife,
mother and grandmother. She
loved being a farm wife, spending
countless hours tending her gar-
den, raising chickens, canning,
freezing and making truly old-
fashioned home cooked meals. The
coffee pot was always on, ready for
a drop-in visitor and would gener-
ally be accompanied by a piece of
pie, cake, cookies or a cinnamon
roll. She always impressed on her
children and grandchildren the
importance of getting an education
and was so very proud of each and
every one of them.
In her empty nest years she was
able to accompany Fat on some
REA trips, bus tours and visits to
kids and grandkids. She also had
time for her quilting and embroi-
dery. Each grandchild was blessed
with a quilt at their high school
graduation. She made many,
many quilts, laprobes, baby quilts,
dish towels, and wall hangings.
She was baptized and confirmed
in the Missouri Synod Lutheran
Church and was a lifelong devout
member and was active in the
Mary and Martha Society. She
also took part in 4-H, Bible study
and choir.
She was blessed throughout her
life with many wonderful relation-
ships three of the most special
being her Aunt Maude and her
friends, Delphine Kruse and Mar-
garet Rankin. Norma and Mar-
garet were loyal volunteers at Hos-
pice Thrift Store.
Thanks to the devoted care of
her family, she was able to stay in
her own home until November of
2011 when she moved into the
Philip Nursing Home.
Survivors include three sons,
Clifford Kinsley and his wife, Jean,
Michael Kinsley and Marty Kins-
ley and his wife, Angie, of Murdo;

dren; one sister, Gen Liffengren of
Murdo; two sisters-in-law, Martha
Kinsley of Murdo and Joyce Ernst
of Pierre; her godsons, Lindsay Lif-
fengren and Corey Peters; and a

William Bill Robert Lee_________________________
Loving husband and father,
a true American
William Bill Robert Lee, 81
years young, of Springdale, Ark.,
formerly of Midland, S.D., suc-
cumbed to heart failure at the VA
Medical Centers Palliative Care
facility in Fayetteville, Ark., at
6:55 p.m. on February 5, 2013.
Bill was born in Midland to
William and Electa Pearl (John-
son) Lee on May 5, 1931, and
raised on his dad's homestead,
Golden Willow Ranch, north of Ot-
tumwa. He was educated at the
Mattison County School where he
graduated the eighth grade. Bill
finished his schooling by GED
while in the military.
Before joining the Army, Bill
was the 4-H leader for the Prairie
Rangers and served with Helen
Heeb and Walt Sandal. He won
the Congress Award and was given
a trip to Chicago. He was all pre-
pared to enter the service of the
Army and actually postponed it so
he could make that trip!
It was during a 4-H camp trip
that he first met Connie Carr, who
was only about 11 years old at the
time, and it was not love at first
sight. Bill was Camp King that
year and since he was 17 years old
there was no romance in the air for
the two of them. But meant to be
has a way of making things hap-
pen.
Bill joined the Army in January
of 1953 and was stationed at Camp
Roberts in Petaluma, Calif. He
served during the Korean War. He
was a sharpshooter with the M1
rifle and was a squad leader for a
medic unit. Bill was a member of a
top secret team in the ASA (Army
Security Agency). Unbeknownst to
his family, Bill was out of the coun-
try many times, behind enemy
lines, helping to get wounded sol-
diers to safety. He was honorably
discharged in June 1959. It was
after Bill returned home from the
service that he and Connie met
again and the sparks quickly flew.
They were married August 6,
1960, in Philip at the Methodist
Church.
A blessed couple, they had a full
life in their loving marriage of 52
years. They had three children to-
gether. Bill loved to go on family
hunting and fishing trips. Many
times, at the beginning of the
hunting season, he would let his
kids follow him as he was track-
ing a deer. Now, any hunter
knows the deer wouldn't be caught
within hearing distance of three
kids. Bill would take them care-
fully and quietly, walking
through the creek beds or wher-
ever they happened to be.
Bill is remembered as a strong,
yet compassionate man. He loved
to work with his hands and loved
remodeling houses. Most of their
homes while growing up had some
part of the house in a remodeling
project. Many times Connie won-
dered if she would ever be rid of all
the sawdust. Bill loved rock hunt-
ing. Many a vacation was spent
out in the middle of nowhere look-
ing for agates, geodes, and what-
ever rock could be polished. He
had a tumbler which he used to get
them polished, but somehow he
never got around to making the
jewelry he intended to create.
There was always a box of beauti-
fully polished rocks somewhere in
the garage or his shop, waiting to
be turned into a treasure. But the
real treasure was Bill.
Bill had a love for gardening, es-
pecially flowers. In the spring, peo-
ple would slowly drive past wher-
ever they lived to admire his flow-
ers. He battled many a pesky go-
pher, even naming a few, all the
while trying to find ways to pre-
vent them from destroying his
beautifying projects. Bill loved
woodworking and building things
with his hands. He could be found
in his shop working with his jig-
saw building something, and all
his kids have jigsaw puzzles that
he created for them as Christmas
gifts one year. Bill had a gentle
spirit, filled with love and he was
loved mightily in response by all
who knew him.
He also loved to play cards. He
and Connie found some wonderful
neighbors who also loved to play
cards. They spent many evenings
playing Joker, Whist, Pinochle and
a number of other card games.
And just when you thought
there couldnt possibly be any
more to Bill Lee husband, father,
brother, son, patriot, woodworker,
amateur horticulturist, hunter,
fisherman, and loyal friend to
many not done yet! Bill was an
IFR-rated pilot who owned two
planes a Piper Cub and a Cessna
Sky Master. And, of course, he
taught his boys to fly. His son,
Todd, recalls a very important les-
son. It seems Todd was having a
bit of trouble picking up the details
his dad was trying to give him. Fi-
nally, Bill said to his son Lets
start simple. When you push this
forward, the cows get bigger.
When you pull it back, the cows
get smaller. Well, that made it all
come together for Todd and, once
again, dad was king.
Even though thats a pretty ful-
filling life, Bill kept busy with
work and his affiliations as well!
He and his nephew, Walter Ju-
nior Van Tassel, became partners
on the Golden Willow Ranch and
raised their families together. In
1963 Golden Willow Seeds was
started, so along with the ranch
that raised registered Black Angus
cattle and farming, the seed busi-
ness included certified seeds and
custom grain cleaning. Bill was as
passionate about his work as he
was about his family. He used
Conklin products in his farming
activities on the ranch. He was
sold on the products so he started
selling them to his friends and

The weather forecast was for
lots of snow across the state of
South Dakota this past weekend.
Some places got that predicted
snow. As, for our area, the snow
was much less then was predicted.
We did get some snow, and it was
a wet snow, and on Sunday the
wind whopped it up pretty good. In-
terstate 90 was closed from Wall to
Sioux Falls, and was still closed
this Monday morning. There were
many school cancellations. Hunt
family members flew into Rapid
City, only to be stranded, due to
road closings. Some came from
Wyoming, making it to Rapid City,
same story, I-90 closed to Sioux
Falls. But, they found an alternate
route so made it to Midland. The
sun is shining this Monday after-
noon. Relatives from the eastern
part of the state were unable to
make it to the funeral service for
Ida Hunt, Monday afternoon, due
to the heavy snowfall, where they
live. My brother, Phil Meyers,
Pierre, shared memories of Ida and
the Hunt family at the funeral
service.
Family got word that Ida (Fos-
heim) Hunt passed away Tuesday
evening, February 5, 2013. Her
parents, Thor and Gjertina Fos-
heim, came from Norway with two
small children, Pete and Esther, to
a land they did not know, with a
language they did not speak. They
eventually wound up in the
Moenville/Deep Creek area where
they raised their family. Eleven
children were born to Thor and
Gjertina, nine girls and two boys,
Margaret and George, died in in-
fancy. Ida was the youngest, and
the last of her siblings to pass
away. With Ida passing away, a
person feels a bit nostalgic, as all of
the aunts, an uncle, and their
spouses are now but a memory.
Pete Fosheim was the lone boy in
the family, growing up with a
bunch of girls. When I look back on
the legacy of our grandparents, I
cant help but think, just how
blessed all of us cousins are to have
been a part of such a legacy. The
Deep Creek community will always
be a special part of that legacy.
And, the Deep Creek Church,
which grandpa and other pioneers
in the area helped build, still
stands on that hill, and the ceme-
tery nearby is a story in itself, as
the many headstones tell of family
members buried there.
Don Sandal, Pierre, whose par-
ents Art and Mildred Sandal were
a big part of the Deep Creek com-
munity, was at Idas funeral serv-
ice. We got to visiting about family
and Deep Creek. When Pastor O.H.
Olson and his wife, Ingeborg, lived
in the Lutheran parsonage here in
Midland, while serving as pastor, a
part of that parsonage became used
for delivering babies. Don was the
first baby born there. Ida was stay-
ing with the Olsons at that time,
working for her room and board,
while going to high school in Mid-
land. She was the age of 16 when
Don was born. I do enjoy those fam-
ily history stories.
As many of you remember, Ida
wrote the Midland News for the Pi-
oneer Review newspaper of Philip,
for many, many years. Monday was
the day for collecting and writing
up that news. It still is. So, having
gone to the funeral, visiting with
family there, I am now at home
writing up the Midland News col-
umn for this week. Ida got to the
point she no longer felt up to doing
the news and so talked me into tak-
ing it over. At the beginning, I re-
member going up to Idas after
writing it up, getting her opinion.
Her comment would sometimes be,
Getting kind of wordy. As I con-
tinued to write and she would look
it over, it was high praise when she
told me, You are getting better,
not so wordy. By wordy, it meant
I was using too many words in de-
scribing a certain something. Be-
cause of Ida, each week I continue
to work at getting down what I
want to say without getting
wordy. She was a big help, mak-
ing me aware of a certain way to
write. We wish to express our sym-
pathy to Idas family on the loss of
their mom, grandmother, and
great-grandmother.
Reminder: Trinity Lutheran
Church in Midland will once again

Trinity Lutheran Church ladies
entertained at the Philip Nursing
Home Friday, February 8, with
Scotti Block playing songs on the
piano and valentines, made by the
Sunday school kids, passed out to
the residents.
Thursday, February 7, Jerry
and Joy Jones and their son-in-law,
Mike Trapp, headed for Pierre for
the National Honor Society cere-
mony of which Mikes son, and
Jerry and Joys grandson,
Chauncey Trapp, was one of the in-
ductees. He is a junior at T.F. Riggs
High School. Mike and Debbies
kids go to school in Pierre. Debbie
and the kids stay in Pierre during
the week. There was a nice recep-
tion following the ceremony at the
Riggs complex. Joy reports Lee and
Mary Briggs granddaughter, Cat-
tibrie Riggle, was also one of the in-
ductees. Congratulations to
Chauncey and Cattibrie.
Ronnie and Emily Sammons
went to the home of their daughter,
Corinne, and her husband, Mitch
Norman. Others there were
Corinne and Mitchs son, Ty and
Tara Norman and Hayden. Mitch
was the cook for a birthday party
for Corinne. Happy birthday,
Corinne.
Emily Sammons and Judy Daly
were guests of Judys mom, Marie
Anderson, of the Silverleaf at a
great place to eat in Philip.
Family got together to celebrate
Arline Petoskes 90th birthday
with a supper and birthday cake at
The Steakhouse in Philip. Three of
her kids and spouses were there:
Jim and Barb Petoske, Barb and
Morrie Jones and Jody and Gary
Block, along with four of her grand-
children and their families. It was
on a week night so those from a dis-
tance couldnt be there. Arline has
been enjoying the many birthday
cards shes been getting in the
mail. Making it extra nice was her
granddaughter, Lori Petoske, who
lives in Massachusetts, was home,
so was there. Barb Petoskes folks,
Bob and Ardis McCormick,
Kadoka, were also there, having a
chance to see their granddaughter,
Lori, as well.
The other night, Jerry and I
were enjoying polka music on the
Molly B Polka Party TV Show.
Love that polka music. It brought
back memories of the kids bringing
home friends from college, telling
them if I began to dance around in
the kitchen when making a meal,
not to worry, I was a-okay, just en-
joying that polka music. Brought
back memories of a certain Valen-
tines Day ball held in Midland. It
was the year 1960, our senior class
year, and the first dance of this sort
held in the Midland Legion Hall.
There were judges, choosing the
sweetheart of the ball, who wound
up being a classmate of ours, Mary
Lou (Foster) Wallner. Mary Lou
loved to dance. I was visiting with
Mary Lou about that last night.
Laughing, she said she remembers
that night well, and said she was
given a Barbie type doll in a heart
shaped box and still has it to this
day. Good memories.
Jerry remembers Henry and
Dena Martin having dances in
their home when he was growing
up. He said Henry played the fiddle
and he thought a Crawford played
an instrument as well. So, I called
Mickey (Martin) Woitte to get more
of the story. She said her dad,
Henry, did play the fiddle. Bill
Crawford played the piano. Bob
Crawford played the banjo, and
when her brother, Herb, was home
he played the guitar. She remem-
bers everyone having a good time.
A time of dancing, having lunch,
and just enjoying being together.
We both agreed folks today have
missed out on that good old-fash-
ioned fun with those local bands. It
seems we are too busy being in a
hurry to get somewhere. Mom used
to tell of her and her sisters going
to barn dances and how much fun
it was. Folks used to go to each
others homes to play cards, too.
Ivan Schanzenbach remembers
playing cards in the Little Eagle
School, not far from where he lives,
at the Kirley Hall, and the base-
ment of the old bank building in
Midland. He had to chuckle as he
told of the air getting pretty thick
in the basement of that bank build-
ing, as some folks smoked cigars.
Guess Im getting a bit nostalgic.
Does that mean Im getting old? I
dont think so; I think it has some-
thing to do with my aunt, Ida
Hunts, funeral service yesterday.
It seems we get so busy going
somewhere, we forget to enjoy
where we are.
In closing, I leave you with some
parts from an email I got from a
friend, Maureen (Gillaspie)
Wadahl. It has a picture of a child
and under the picture it says,
When you thought I wasnt look-
ing. It is a keeper email with les-
sons to be learned. I cant, of
course, write all it has to say, but
here is some of it. When you
thought I wasnt looking, I saw you
make my favorite cake for me, and
I learned that the little things can
be the special things in life. When
you thought I wasnt looking, I
learned most of lifes lessons that I
need to know to be a good and pro-
ductive person when I grow up.
When you thought I wasnt looking,
I looked at you and wanted to say,
Thanks for all the things I saw
when you thought I wasnt looking.
Have a good day and a good
week.

Greetings from beautiful, wind-
still, snow covered northeast
Haakon County. The temperatures
are mild today, and it looks like it
is going to be melting some of our
snow. Actually, I probably should-
n't say that our area is "snow cov-
ered" the winds got a little west-
ern here over the weekend, and the
wind blew some areas clear and
piled the snow in ravines and
ditches. The snow also formed im-
pressive drifts in some areas. But
whatever the case, the moisture is
welcome. According to Marge
Briggs, our local weather data
recorder, we received about five
inches of snow and .40 of moisture.
Thank you, God, now please keep it
coming. After our desperately dry
conditions last year, we will need a
lot more moisture for the pastures
and crops next spring. Plus, we will
need some run-off to fill the dams.
First of all, my sympathy to the
family of Ida (Fosheim) Hunt. Ida
was born and raised in the Deep
Creek community, and she still has
many relatives here. It is amazing
to me that she and her husband
raised 18 children what an ac-
complishment. She was one of
those people who are so vital to
their communities willing to give
of their time and talents and it
sounds like her home was a haven
for her children as well as their
friends. She will be missed, but her
legacy will live on through her fam-
ily.
I also want to send get well
wishes to David Hand. At this
time, Dave is in the Rapid City Re-
gional Hospital, recovering from a
heart attack. Dave got sick over the
weekend and went to the Philip
hospital Sunday I'm sure that
was a difficult trip with the bliz-
zard conditions we were experienc-
ing. He was taken to Rapid City by
ambulance, and he received two
stents Sunday evening to open up
some arteries. It sounds like he is
doing well, and I hope he'll be able
to come home soon. Thank good-
ness for the excellent medical care
offered at Philip and Rapid City.
My husband Randy compared re-
ceiving stents to getting an engine
overhaul, so once Dave gets home,
the challenge will probably be to
keep him slowed down while he re-
covers.
It is music contest time again for
students in the area, and the an-
nual music contest at Mobridge
was held last week. When our chil-
dren were in school in Pierre, I en-
joyed attending the contest our
area always seemed to produce a
lot of musically talented students.
These days, one of those talented
students is Joni Willoughby,
daughter of Jeff and Julie
Willoughby. Joni is a sophomore at
Riggs High School in Pierre, and
she excels at music and drama. I
understand she is also an excellent
student, but that doesn't surprise
me. I sometimes think that these
"country kids" have an advantage
over kids who aren't lucky enough
to grow up in the country. They
have an excellent work ethic, they
tend to be more mature, and they
understand the value of setting a
goal and working hard to achieve
that goal it doesn't just happen.
Joni's hard work paid off last week,
when she received five superior
ratings and one excellent rating for
her efforts. She received a 1+ rat-
ing on her vocal solo, and she came
within one point of receiving a 1+
on her saxophone solo that is
amazing. So, congratulations to
Joni. Keep up the great work!
Lee and Mary Briggs stopped in
to spend time with Lee's mother,
Lil Briggs, Tuesday and Wednes-
day of last week. It sounds like Lil
is doing pretty well, although some
days are better than others. Thurs-
day, Lee and Mary were on hand to
see their granddaughter, Cattibrie
Riggle, be inducted into the Na-
tional Honor Society in Pierre. An-
other local youngster, Chauncey
Trapp, was also inducted. Mary
worked from home Friday, and Fri-
day night she burned the midnight
oil putting the finishing touches on
a formal dress for granddaughter
Cattibrie.
Saturday, Kinsey Riggle came to
the Briggs ranch to spend time
with her grandparents, as her par-
ents, Clay and Rea Riggle, were
headed to Rapid City. Clay and Rea
joined Keva (Briggs) Joens in
Rapid City to celebrate Keva's
birthday. Clay and Rea returned to
their home in Pierre Sunday, pick-
ing up Kinsey en route. Rea and
Clay said the roads were slushy in
spots and the visibility was not
good in some areas, but they made
it home without incident.
Clint and Laura Alleman con-
tinue to stay busy. Clint is kept
busy doing ranch chores, and
Laura is busy with her household
chores. I know Laura and daughter
Alivya sometimes help Clint with
the cattle feeding, and from the pic-
tures I've seen, I would say they all
enjoy their time together. Little
Alivya has been busy creating
valentines and dragging out toys,
but fortunately her mother says
she is a good "picker-upper," which
helps a lot. Laura is especially busy
this time of year with her duties as
director of the upcoming Hayes
play. She said some days it feels
like there are not enough hours in
the day to accomplish her to-do list.
Friday, Clint, Laura and Alivya
went to the home of T.J. and Jea-
nine Gabriel. Adam and Jodi
Roseth and family were also there.
The guys looked at bulls, and the
gals spent time visiting. The week-
end storm kept the Alleman family
shut in for a bit, but they were glad
to see the moisture.
Last Saturday, Duane Roseth
and his son, Thor Roseth, attended
an auctioneer contest in Valentine,
Neb. Jeff Long, one of the auction-
eers at Philip Livestock, was
among the contestants. Duane said
the roads were a little slick in spots
on the trip home.
Dick and Gene Hudson recently
returned from a two-week trip to
visit family members. (They were
gone so long that some of the neigh-
bors were wondering if they had
run away from home.) Their first
stop was Columbus, Neb., where
they visited their daughter, Debbie
Burma, and her family. They also
visited their grandchildren, Chris
and Courtney, at the colleges they
attend. They went on to Godfrey,
Ill., and spent several days visiting
Gene's brother, Leland Snook, his
wife, Carol, and their daughters,
Shelley and Susan, and their fami-
lies. The next stop was Davenport,
Iowa, where they visited Kenny
and Marie Spinsby. The weather
turned a little nasty while they
were there, but they waited for bet-
ter weather before heading back
west. Gene said there were a num-
ber of vehicles in the ditch between
Davenport and Des Moines. They
spent some time in Lincoln, Neb.,
visiting Dick's sister and her hus-
band, Norma and Larry Schenkel,
and they spent time with Dick's
brother, Don, and Don's family
near Stromsburg, Neb. They said
they encountered some rain and
snow on their travels, but for the
most part they had good travel con-
ditions. They had a good time vis-
iting relatives, and they are glad to
be back home.
Billy and Arlyne have been close
to home this past week. Arlyne said
it was one of those "neat weeks,"
when she was able to stay home
and work on puzzles.
Nels and Dorothy were in Pierre
on Friday, getting groceries and

Our heartfelt thank you to each and
everyone who honored Cliff and our whole
family in our loss with your presence at his
memorial service, your visits, phone calls,
prayers, cards, flowers, food and supplies,
memorials, clearing snow and your hugs
and kind words. We now know the many
friends who cared and were touched by a
very special man.
A big thank you to Pastor Kathy for your visits and your
comforting message, to Sally and Glenn for the beautiful music, to
Norm and Dean for your help at the service.
A special thank you to DJ, Gayle and Jack for your caring and
compassion and help in guiding us through those sad and difficult
days.
To the UCW ladies who donated and served the lunch and also
the coffee and cookies following the service - we thank you.
We are so blessed to have Drs. Klopper, Holman and Henrie,
PA-C, and the medical facilities and personnel we have here in
Philip. The care and concern they have given Cliff the past 12 years,
we thank you. Thanks also to the ambulance and crew and the
hospital staff in Rapid City, the ICU people were great.
Though your smile is gone forever, and your hand we
cannot touch, we still have many memories of the one we loved
so much. Your memory is our keepsake, with which we'll never
part. God has you in His keeping. We have you in our hearts.

neighbors. Driven to succeed at
anything he did, Bill ultimately be-
came Conklins Salesperson of the
Year with the companys first
$50,000 month from one person!
He was one of the first of eight
area managers for Conklin.
There was a tough side to Bill
and it was reflected in his involve-
ment with his community. You
cant be in demand to participate
on numerous boards without hav-
ing a gift for knowing when to take
a stand. Bill served on the South
Dakota State Board of Agriculture
where he developed industry and
educational relationships through
numerous board meetings at
South Dakota State University in
Brookings. He served with SDSU
President Briggs on the Board of
Directors for the SDCIA (South
Dakota Crop Improvement Associ-
ation), the Board of Directors for
Certified Seeds, and the Board of
Directors for the Prairie Village in
Madison. In 1973, Bill was
awarded the South Dakota Farm-
stead Beautification Award from
the Haakon County Conservation
District. He was a lifetime member
of Granite Threshing Bee in Gran-
ite, Iowa. Additionally, he was a
past Master of the Masonic Lodge
in Midland, and was a 32nd De-
gree Shriner. Bill was a busy man!
Declining health, caused by ex-
posure to chemicals in the seed
cleaning dust, forced Bill and Wal-
ter to dissolve their partnership in
1970. Bill and Connie then pur-
chased the Bernard Armstrong
Ranch north of Midland. In 1974,
they decided to move the family to
the Rapid City area to be closer to
the health care Bill needed. It was-
n't long before they decided the
doctors in Sioux Falls were better
and they moved to the eastern side
of South Dakota.
Bill became disabled in 1989
when a drunk driver hit his semi-
truck, sending his rig over the side
of the mountain near the Ten-
nessee/North Carolina border.
This added more health issues to
Bills already difficult condition
and, in 2008, Bill and Connie de-
cided to retire. A move to Arkansas
where they could be near the
Ozark Mountains they loved and
be in a warmer climate was an
easy decision to make. This also
put them closer to Branson, Mo.,
where they loved to visit many of
the music places.
The driving force behind Bills
ability to overcome all adversity
and come out on top was that he
dearly loved his family. When the
grandchildren started arriving,
Bill loved sharing the things he
had passion for and passing along
his knowledge in such a wide array
of topics. He looked forward to
sharing with each new generation
as the great-grandchildren started
arriving. He was proud of the ac-
complishments of his children,
grandchildren, and great-grand-
children. One of his granddaugh-
ters shared with Grandma re-
cently that "Grandpa was always
so strong and could fix anything."
Everyone agreed. He collected an-
tique tractors and was a big Inter-
national Harvester fan. Connie
was indulgent about Bills love for
all things tractor and Bill was
able to add another thing to his
long list of passions.
Not long ago, Bill ran into an-
other Korean War Vet. They got to
talking and discovered they had
been on some of the same missions
together. They were able to remi-
nisce about the daring helicopter
pilot who was able to fly them in
and out of some pretty rough expe-
riences as they helped injured sol-
diers. Bill was so very proud to
have served his country. He was
proud to be an American through
and through. He was proud to
serve his country. When he was
given his Korean War Veteran cap
a couple of years ago, he proudly
wore it everywhere he went as a
reminder of the country he loved.
Bill is survived by his wife of 52
years, Connie (Carr) Lee; a daugh-
ter Sandra (Jack) Nantais of Cen-
terville; two sons, Mike Lee of
Fairview, Mont., and Todd
(Tammy) Lee of Apple Valley,
Minn.; a sister, Fern Konst of
Philip; a brother-in-law, Jim
(Deanna) Carr of Pueblo, Colo.;
eight grandchildren, Dan (Kenzi)
Lee, Ashley Osterkamp, Nick Lee,
Veronica (Robert) Knockenmus,
Alisha Lee, Hannah Lee, Elliott
Lee, and Katie Lee; three step-
grandchildren - Adam (Sarah)
Nantais, Erica Nantais, and Joel
(Holly) Nantais; three great-
grandchildren, Paige Knocken-
mus, Robert Michael Knockenmus
and Landon Michael Lee; multiple
nieces and nephews; and a host of
relatives and friends.
He was preceded in death by his
parents, William and Electa Pearl
(Johnson) Lee; half-sisters, Ruth
(Caster) Blumenthal and Edna
(Caster) Jones; half-brother,
Grover Caster; baby grandson,
Eric Lee; infant nephew, Richard
Konst; nephew, Walter "Junior"
Van Tassel; and niece, Esther
(Konst) Burns.
Bill always gave more than ex-
pected, and he will proudly serve
God in Heaven. But his family is
left with the memories of a soft,
gentle, compassionate man who
loved them all. He will be greatly
missed.
A celebration of life service was
held at the American Legion Hall
in Philip, S.D., on Saturday, Feb-
ruary 9, with Pastor Dallas
McKinley officiating.
Music was provided by Barb
Bowen, pianist, and Susan Van
Tassel, vocalist. Ushers were
Mickey Daly and Lawrence
Schofield.
Pallbearers were Todd and Mike
Lee, Steve and Jim Van Tassel,
and Nick and Rodney Konst.

An effort to have state authoriza-
tion for a new cemetery for veter-
ans on the eastern end of South
Dakota died in the House State Af-
fairs Committee this past week in
Pierre.
Representative Stace Nelson, R-
Fulton, presented the bill February
6, with a host of veterans in the au-
dience looking on. Nelson said the
bill was seeking authority to pur-
chase 50 acres of land along I-90,
but there was no state money in-
volved. He said there were plenty
of South Dakotans with a kind
heart who will be honored to do-
nate to this.
Steve Harding, Department of
Veterans Affairs, agreed with the
good intentions, but opposed it
because of the cost and the lack of
a need. He said the Black Hills Na-
tional Cemetery near Sturgis al-
ready is in existence, and two other
cemeteries at Ogalala and Rosebud
reservations at Pine Ridge and
Mission, respectively, recently
were given authority to move
ahead.
South Dakota has 70,000 veter-
ans and three cemeteries, Harding
said, while North Dakota has
60,000 veterans with one state
cemetery.
Local municipalities, he said,
have the option to have areas des-
ignated in current cemeteries for
veterans.
Nelson said the veterans are not
asking the state for a national
cemetery, but the veterans would
take it on as a project to raise the
money. Nelson said communities
would be interested in having this
memorial park. While it would not
be a windfall, he said, it would at-
tract visitors, who would buy gas
and food while there. He said they
would seek a donor of 50 acres
along the I-90 corridor.
The reason for seeking another
cemetery on the eastern side of the
state was to make it easier for rel-
atives to visit the graves of their
loved ones, rather than having to
travel across the state.
Committee members resisted the
proposal, citing several problems
with the bill. Rep. David Nostrup,
R-Aberdeen, said there was noth-
ing stopping the veterans from
working on such a project, and did-
nt need the state authority to do
so.
While just short of 100 legisla-
tors had signed on to the bill, Nos-
trup included, and Rep. Bernie
Hunhoff, D-Yankton, had asked
that it be kept alive to be debated
by the full House, the bill was
killed in committee on a 9-4 vote.
Veterans fail to get state
authority for cemetery

Cuts made two years ago across
most of state government programs
resulted in the loss of $168,000
from the veterans service officer
fund.
A bill approved by the House
State Affairs Committee February
6, HB1249, would reinstate that
funding to counties who have such
an officer. This person helps veter-
ans receive their benefits from the
federal government.
Representative Lance Carson, R-
Mitchell, said with over 70,000 vet-
erans eligible, only about 26,000
currently are taking part in what
has been awarded to them.
We send several hundred young
people into combat zones, said
Carson, and many return with
problems that need to be ad-
dressed.
Rep. Spencer Hawley, D-Brook-
ings, said two years ago when the
cuts were made, he didnt think it
was a necessary cut, and this one
was a slap in the face of veterans.
He supported having the funding
reinstated, noting that counties
will have to apply for the reim-
bursement, once the money is actu-
ally spent on veterans service offi-
cer activities.
Sen. Bill Van Gerpen, R-Tyndall,
who had not been in the Legisla-
ture when the cut was made, said
he was shocked and stunned when
I learned South Dakota had de-
cided to quit funding the VSO. The
perception, he said, was that of the
state not supporting its veterans.
Gene Murphy, Disabled Ameri-
can Veterans, said veteran suicide
rates are at an all-time high this
past year. Also, the DAV has 28
vans that make daily trips, bring-
ing veterans to appointments. The
government, said Murphy, wasnt
concerned about dollars when it
sent these people to war.
The bill was sent to the House
floor with a 13-0 do pass recom-
mendation.

Welcome to the Pioneer Re-
views newest column, a space to
share helpful hints (household to
ranching), recipes, bits of wisdom,
you name it, well probably have it.
Well pass ideas along, but will
make no guarrantees to the
reader.
One friend shared that you can
easily wash the fruit by placing
them in a sinkful of water with a
cup of vinegar. Let soak for 10
minutes, rinse and dry. This not
only washes the residue off, but
may also extend the life of some of
the fruits.
Another suggestion is to cut up
your orange and lemon rinds and
add them to your bottle of vinegar.
The oils from the rinds are sup-
posed to mix with the vinegar, giv-
ing more cleaning power and a
fresh scent.
If you cant use your celery up
right away, go ahead and freeze it.
I was chopping it up and parboil-
ing it and then freezing it, but
have found out that it is okay to
put it directly in a freezer con-
tainer then into the freezer. I
would suggest chopping it up first.
This makes it easier to use for
soups, etc.
There are a few people, (I admit
I am one) who have not had much
to do with avocados. So for those
others like me here are a few
hints.
The website www.avocadocen-
tral.com said upripe avocados can
be stored at room temperature on
the counter out of direct sunlight
for faster ripening. If you cut open
an avacado and decide it is not
ripe enough, the site advises to
sprinkle the exposed flesh with
lemon or line juice, place the
halves back together, cover tightly
with plastic wrap and place in re-
frigerator. Check occassionaly for
ripeness.
The site recommends not freez-
ing the avacados, but notes they
can be frozen as a puree with
lemon or lime juice added to pre-
vent browning.

Old Business:
PWD Reckling updated the Council on
the Lift Station wet well repairs. He noted
that weather permitting, the City Engi-
neer, Harlan Quenzer with SPN & Assoc.,
will be in town next week to inspect the
well. He stressed that all safety precau-
tions will be taken in order to lower one of
them down the well for the inspection.
Council was advised that the West River
Museum property, legally described as
the West 50 of the North Half of Lot 02,
Block 02, Original Town, City of Philip,
SD, has been deeded to the City of Philip
per the Councils prior consent. Following
the filing of said deed, a lease agreement
for the maintenance of the property has
been entered into with the Philip Garden
Club. They will be developing the area
into a park.
Council reviewed a request from Demeon
Brown, representing John Parsons, to ex-
tend the hangar lease for Mr. Parsons
airplane beyond the deadline of May 30,
2013. Mr. Brown is concerned that the air-
plane will not be in flying order by the pre-
vious established deadline and asks that
the Council continue to house the air-
plane until such time. In turn, he is guar-
anteeing that payment for the hangar
lease will be made six months in ad-
vance.
It was noted that the City has not had any
interest in renting the space that their air-
plane is occupying.
Following discussion, motion was made
by Arthur, seconded by Matt to approve
Mr. Browns request contingent upon re-
ceipt of the guaranteed six months of ad-
vance payments for the hangar lease.
Motion carried.
New Business:
Wood/Walden Ave. Utility and Street Im-
prov. Project:
Jeff McCormick, engineer with SPN &
Assoc., reviewed the following bids for
the project, noting that the engineers es-
timate for the project is $1,320,000.00.
The bids were opened at 4:00 p.m. today
in the presence of the Street Committee,
Mayor, and Finance Officer.

First Rate Excavate Inc., Sioux Falls,
SD - $1,654,470.25
Rosebud Concrete Inc., Winner, SD -
$1,326,375.50
Mr. McCormick reported Rosebud Con-
crete, Inc. is the low bidder and they have
met all of the bid requirements, providing
all of the necessary documentation. He
voiced no concern for awarding the bid at
this time, advising that the approval would
need to be made contingent upon on the
Citys funding agency's review and ap-
proval.
Mayor Vetter pointed out that Rosebuds
bid for the curb and gutter (C&G) is
$22.00 per lineal foot which is approxi-
mately 33% higher than the engineers
estimate of $15.00 per lineal foot. The
property owners were previously notified
of the estimated amount so in his opinion,
this needed to be addressed. He did
mention that Rosebuds bid for C&G
amounts per lineal foot was within the
range of the other bids received; with the
lowest cost being $18.70 per lineal foot
and the highest being $30.91 per lineal
foot.
FO Van Lint reminded everyone that the
even though the actual costs for C&G are
higher than the estimate, the property
owners will still only be responsible for
40% of the final costs with the City paying
the remaining 60%. She noted that the
property owners will be contacted in the
near future with the actual costs once the
bid amounts are applied to the special as-
sessment role.
Mr. McCormick confirmed that he would
be updating the special assessment fig-
ures with the actual costs per the
awarded bid amounts.
Following review, motion was made by
Gartner, seconded by Matt to approve the
low bid from Rosebud Concrete Inc. in
the amount of $1,326,375.50 for the
Wood/Walden Ave. Utility and Street Im-
prov. project. The bid is approved contin-
gent upon the Citys funding agency's ap-
proval. Motion carried with all members
voting aye.
It was noted that the project start date will
be determined at a later date.
Motion was then made by Arthur, sec-
onded by Gartner to authorize the
Mayors signature on the Application for
the Notice of Intent for General Permit for
Temporary Discharges & Water Use Per-
mit through the SD Dept. of Env. & Natu-
ral Resources for the above referenced
project. Motion carried.
Motion was made by Harry, seconded by
Arthur to authorize the Mayors signature
on the Application for the Notice of Intent
to Obtain Coverage under the SWD Gen-
eral Permit for Storm Water Discharge
Associated with the above referenced
projects construction activities. Applica-
tion to be submitted through the SD Dept.
of Env. & Natural Resources. Motion car-
ried.
Mayor Vetter brought forth the discussion
of the property owners responsibility for
the service line replacements from the
back of curb to their private residences. It
was noted that City policy places the re-
sponsibility on the property owner for the
water service from the curb stop to the
residence and from the main to residence
for sewer service. In the instance of the
City doing an improvement project, the
City is responsible for the replacement of
the water and sewer service lines from
the new water and sewer mains to the
back of the curb on the properties. Prop-
erty owners that desire replacing any ad-
ditional service line on their property,
have the option to make arrangements
with the awarded contractor or a contrac-
tor of their choice at their expense.
Mr. McCormick stated that the sewer
mains will be replaced on both N. Wood
Ave. and Walden Ave. These will be re-
placed up to the point of the existing
water service curb stop or as close to the
property line as may be practical. Should
the sewer service line be of good quality
PVC pipe, it will be connected at that
point.
Mr. McCormick then advised that a new
water main will also be installed on
Walden Ave. in addition to the sewer
main. This brings about a unique situation
for one property owner, Tami Carstensen,
as the connection of the water service to
her property could be shortened by con-
necting the property to the new main.
Currently her water line extends from the
water main on High St. and travels down-
hill to the south-side of her property. The
new water and sewer service could enter
the east-side of her property.
The Council was then questioned if they
plan to follow the replacement policy for
improvement projects during this projects
proposed water and sewer main replace-
ments or if they plan to make exceptions?
Mayor and Council posed questions
about Carstensens service line; if it is
metered, past reported water leaks, water
flow and/or pressure complaints. In addi-
tion, would the City benefit from moving
her service line and connecting to the
new main on Walden Ave.?
PWD Reckling stated that in his opinion,
moving her service line to the main on
Walden Ave. would benefit the City. This
would remove an unnecessary service
line connection as well as risks for un-
countable water loss if the line would
incur another leak. He reported that her
service line has experienced at least one
leak in the past that he is aware of and
unfortunately, the water is not metered
until it enters her home. In addition, she
has not made any complaints of water
flow or pressure.
Council Member Arthur agreed with PWD
Reckling, stating that it would be more of
a benefit to the City than the property
owner in this situation.
It was noted that the expenses to move
Carstensens service line would include
approximately 25 to 30 feet of new water
line. The bid from Rosebud for this is
$32.00/foot for one-inch water service
pipe for a rough estimated cost of
$900.00.
Council Member Larson suggested that
the City may benefit from contracting with
a local contractor for this work consider-
ing the bid costs from Rosebud Concrete.
Council Member Henrie mentioned and
Gartner confirmed that he is in favor of
the possibility of cost-sharing the expense
like that of the special assessments for
C&G, driveway approaches, etc. in cer-
tain circumstances such as Carstensens.
FO Van Lint noted that Carstensen made
the inquiry as she would like to be made
aware of the potential costs that will be in-
curred to connect with her existing serv-
ice line and made no mention of a favor
from the City.
Mayor Vetter went on to stress that the
Council needs to take precautions when
making these types of decisions as it will
be setting precedence. If the City incurs
the expenses to move her service line, it
needs to be justified that it is to the benefit
of the City.
Following a lengthy discussion, motion
was made Matt, seconded by Gartner to
follow the replacement policy for improve-
ment projects during this projects pro-
posed water and sewer main replace-
ments with the exception of Carstensens
service line. Additional information and
cost-sharing options will be gathered for
Carstensens service line. Motion carried.
E. Pine St./Wray Ave. Overlay Project:
Mr. McCormick went on to review the fol-
lowing bids for the E. Pine St./Wray Ave.
Overlay project, noting that the engineers
estimate for the project is $209,000.00.
He noted that the bids were opened today
in conjunction with the Wood/Walden
Ave. project bids.
Bituminous Paving, Inc., Ortonville, MN
- $288,516.00
Sacrison Paving Inc., Whitewood, SD
- $259,259.59
Simon Contractors of SD, Rapid City,
SD - $281,129.80
J&J Asphalt Company, Rapid City, SD
- $217,135.10
Hills Material Company, Rapid City, SD
- $229,974.00
Morris Inc., Pierre, SD - $267,288.00
Mr. McCormick reported that J&J Asphalt
is the low bidder for the project. He noted
that he is not familiar with this company
and advised the Council of their options
for the bid. One being that they can award
the bid at this time or wait until further ref-
erence checks and research on the con-
tractor can be completed. The research
would include McCormick contacting the
references listed in their bid documents
which were reviewed. It was noted that
the majority of their work history appears
to be parking lots with the exception of
two streets for the City of Rapid City.
Mayor Vetter questioned if anyone in the
audience was familiar with the company.
With no information available, he ex-
pressed his reservations for awarding the
bid without doing further research on the
company. He would like reassurance that
the Citys tax dollars will be spent on good
quality work, especially in this high traffic
area.
Council Member Arthur then questioned
the amount of work that the contractor is
responsible for prior to overlaying the
street? McCormick advised that they
have included 650 square yards for re-
pairs to the existing asphalt and 50 ton of
asphalt leveling course. This work will be
done prior to laying asphalt as well as the
concrete that will be installed at the inter-
section of Hone St. and Wray Ave.
FO Van Lint informed the Council that
they have thirty days following a bid open-
ing to award or reject the bids.
It was also noted that the City appropri-
ated $233,000.00 for this overlay project.
Following discussion, motion was made
by Matt, seconded by Arthur to table the
bids for the E. Pine St./Wray Ave. Overlay
project at this time. The Street Commit-
tee, Engineer, and Mayor are authorized
to conduct further research and review of
J&J Asphalt Company and award the bid
if the findings are acceptable. Motion car-
ried with all members voting aye.
Mr. McCormick confirmed that he will con-
tact their references and report his find-
ings to the Mayor and Street Committee
in order for a decision to be made within
the next thirty days.
Wood/Walden Ave. and E. Pine St./Wray
Ave. Projects:
Motion was made by Arthur, seconded by
Gartner to authorize the Mayors signa-
ture on the SD Dept. of Transportation
application for permit to occupy right-of-
way for the above referenced projects.
Motion carried with all members voting
aye.
Council reviewed the material testing pro-
posals from American Technical Services
(ATS) for the above referenced projects.
The cost estimates for the Wood/Walden
Ave. project is $18,273.00 and the E.
Pine St/Wray Ave. project is $5,172.00.
Mr. McCormick advised the Council that
the majority of the services proposed by
ATS are already covered under the pro-
jects construction engineering agree-
ments with SPN & Assoc. The only differ-
ence is that of the asphalt plant testing,
which according to McCormick would be
completed if necessary and at the Coun-
cils discretion. He is confident that ATSs
proposal is an unnecessary expense.
Following review, motion was made by
Gartner, seconded by Harry to decline en-
tering into the above referenced contract
proposals from ATS. Motion carried with
all members voting aye.
Council went on to discuss the projects
water use consumption during construc-
tion and the fees that will be charged to
the contractors.
Mr. McCormick stated that his office re-
ceived inquiries during the bidding of the
projects for a price quote for the water
consumption that will be needed to con-
trol moisture during backfilling and rolling
asphalt. He advised them that they would
have access to water through the bulk
water station or a hydrant meter at the
regular city water rate of $5.00 per 1,000
gallons. He then questioned if these are
the correct fees that will be charged to the
contractors, noting that the City will be re-
sponsible to pay their water supplier for
all water consumption.
Mayor Vetter questioned if the City
charges a hook-up fee for placing a meter
on a fire hydrant? PWD Reckling advised
that a fee for this service has not been es-
tablished in which Vetter recommended
the City consider implementing a fee to
cover the City personnels time for this
work.
Motion was made by Harry, seconded by
Gartner to allow the contractors to either
pull water from a metered hydrant and/or
the bulk water station at the established
water rate of $5.00 per 1,000 gallons dur-
ing construction. Motion carried.
Motion was made by Matt, seconded by
Gartner to approve the official plat of N.
Wood Ave., bisecting Tracts I and J, lo-
cated in 13-1-20, Philip Acreage, Haakon
County, City of Philip, SD; and, authorize
the City Officials signatures thereon. Mo-
tion carried.
Mayor, Council and those in attendance
thanked Mr. McCormick as he left the
meeting at this time.
Airport:
Council reviewed the project status up-
date for the Land Acquisition and Environ-
mental Assessment (LA/EA); and, both
the project and construction status up-
dates for the Medium Intensity Runway
Lighting (MIRL) project as prepared by
Rod Senn, Airport Engineer with Kadr-
mas, Lee and Jackson (KLJ).
The MIRL projects final pay request to
Muth Electric, Inc. was not available at
this time.
Council reviewed the following building
permits: Corks - sewer repair/replace-
ment; and, David Fitzgerald - carport.
Following review, motion was made by
Arthur, seconded by Harry to approve the
above the building permits as presented.
Motion carried.
Mayor Vetter advised the Council of the
opportunity for Philip to benefit from the
University of North Dakotas (UND) Pay
it Forward program. The university will
be bringing in 40 students to work on
March 9th, 2013. They will provide the
labor with the stipulation that the commu-
nity or organization provide the materials
needed to complete the project or proj-
ects. Some examples of their past proj-
ects include cleaning up areas, painting,
and entertaining at nursing homes. In
these instances, some of the required
materials would be yard tools, paint, etc.
It was suggested to appoint a steering
committee for the program. They would
be responsible for identifying and coordi-
nating the local projects with the UNDs
contact person. Mayor Vetter and Council
Member Henrie agreed to be on the com-
mittee.
The City Finance Office has contacted
various groups and organizations in the
community to identify projects that would
benefit from this program. Some potential
project ideas included the new park being
established by the Philip Garden Club,
the baseball/softball fields, and entertain-
ing at the nursing home to name a few.
The concern is that the majority of proj-
ects would be outdoors and with the time
of year they are coming, there is no guar-
antee that the weather will cooperate.
Mayor Vetter stated that this is an unbe-
lievable offer and it would be hard to turn
it down, but unfortunately we also need to
have work for them.
The possibility to move their arrival date
to later in the spring or summer was men-
tioned. DFO Smith confirmed that she
would contact their project coordinator
and inquire about possibly changing the
date. If they are not able to change the
date, project ideas will need to be final-
ized in the very near future or unfortu-
nately, we will need to decline their offer.
Smith also noted that if the projects can
be found, the group will need a place to
stay on the evening of March 8th. She will
be in contact with the school and/or
churches for this accommodation.
Mayor Vetter then recommended that
each Council Member contact at least
one community member for project ideas
and report their findings to the City Fi-
nance Office by the end of the week.

THANK YOUS
The family of Jim Hewitt
wishes to thank everybody in
and associated with our won-
derful community for your
thoughtfulness and generosity
during Jims lengthy illness
and passing. Specifically, Dr.
Klopper & everybody who
works at our wonderful clinic &
hospital, who were certainly
there whenever we needed
them and took excellent care of
him as well as offering compas-
sion and courtesies to the
whole family. His care was un-
precedented at every stage.
Thanks also for the unending
support and services by Pastor
Kathy Chesney all during our
time of need. We were so grate-
ful also for the services ren-
dered by DJ & Jack Rush.
There again, their services are-
unparalleled! God will surely
continue to bless all of you.

After months of travel and re-
cruiting, Dakota Wesleyan Univer-
sity football coach Ross Cimpl in-
troduced the Tigers first 33 re-
cruits for the 2013 season to the
DWU campus and Mitchell com-
munity Wednesday morning at a
signing day party at the Sherman
Center on the Dakota Wesleyan
campus.
Cimpl, who completed his first
season as head coach at Dakota
Wesleyan in 2012, said he was
looking to focus on the offensive
and defensive line positions as well
as defensive back, wide receiver,
running back and quarterback po-
sitions with this recruiting class.
The Tigers added 18 offensive play-
ers and 15 defensive players to
their roster with this first wave of
recruits, including five offensive
linemen and four defensive line-
men.
Included in the list of recruits is
Cassidy Schnabel, a 60, 180
pound senior at Philip High School.
Since I started playing, it has
been a dream of mine to go on and
play college ball and now I can
make that dream a reality, stated
Schnabel.
A three-year starter and four-
time letter winner for the Scotties,
he recorded 180 career tackles, an
all-conference honorable mention
selection as a junior and senior,
also lettered twice in basketball
and once in track, and was a mem-
ber of the A honor roll for three
years. He is the son of Doug and
Nancy Thorson. Schnabel is still
undecided on a major, but will be a
DWU linebacker.
Of DWUs first 32 recruits, 18
come from within the borders of
South Dakota. Four come from Cal-
ifornia, two each from Wyoming,
Nebraska and Texas and the rest
come from New Mexico, Minnesota,
Iowa, Arizona and Idaho. On the
offensive side of the ball, 11 are
skill position players, including five
wide receivers.
This recruiting class has a large
number of guys who have the abil-
ity to make a significant contribu-
tion right away next fall, said
Cimpl, who went 6-4 in his first
season as head coach. I think the
overall talent in this class is one of
the best groups that we have ever
had by signing day. I think coaches
have done a tremendous job of ad-
dressing our needs and we have
guys who can fill those needs for us
immediately.
Cimpl added that he is hoping to
add a few more names to the
Tigers 2013 roster, including more
defensive backs and both offensive
and defensive linemen.

During halftime of the Philip
Scotties home basketball game Fri-
day, February 8, she was honored
as this years recipient of Philips
High Schools recognition of ath-
letic achievement. During early
February, sports educators,
coaches, athletic directors, recre-
ation directors, association mem-
bers, sponsors, students and par-
ents showed their support of the
National Girls and Women in
Sports Day. The South Dakota
High School Activities Association
sent certificates of athletic achieve-
ment to each school to be presented
to outstanding female athletes.

and women in sports day

Each year, juniors at Philip High
School are encouraged to apply to
attend a Youth Business Adven-
ture leadership conference at ei-
ther Black Hills State University,
Spearfish, June 2-7, or University
of South Dakota, Vermillion, June
16-21. Applications must be turned
in to the high school guidance office
by February 25.
Three local businesses/organiza-
tions contribute for representatives
from Philip to attend. The cost per
student is $250. Often this is cov-
ered by donations from the First
National Bank in Philip (contribu-
tor for 30 years), Krofam Inc. (con-
tributor for 30 plus years) and the
Philip Chamber of Commerce (con-
tributor for 27 years).
YBA states that its mission is to
help South Dakota high school stu-
dents and teachers to better under-
stand the American private enter-
prise system and how business op-
erates within it. YBA also show-
cases the business opportunites in
South Dakota.
YBA is for juniors who want to
actively plan for a future in busi-
ness. YBA reminds students that
nearly every profession in America
is a business, that includes doctors,
lawyers, engineers, etc.
Jasper Diegel, YBA executive di-
rector, Pierre, said that there is no
limit to the number of students
who may attend from Philip. We
ask students to speak about YBA to
other students in their schools and
their community. Students write
thank you letters to the business
sponsors to let them know about
their YBA experience, stated
Diegel.
The 2013 agenda is still be final-
ized. In the past, small groups have
competed in product creation and
promotion, heard presentations by
local business owners and chief of
operations, created their own prod-
uct commercials, as well as other
corporate activities.

Donnelly noted the change in
venue from Philip to Wall worked
well. Everyone did a good job
pitching in, he said. Great sup-
port from all three communites.
The Philip Invitational had been
rescheduled from January 11-12 to
the one day tournament. Since
there is no district action this year,
the date was open for Philip to fit
in their tournament.

Clarification
In the Pioneer Reviews Feb-
ruary 7 issue is a photo of a
Lady Scottie being fouled dur-
ing a Philip versus Oelrichs
basketball game. That Philip
player, wearing the #2 jersey
for that game, was Ellie Coyle.
Four points difference at the
final buzzer was enough for a close
defeat of the Philip Lady Scotties
basketball team by the Lyman
Raiders. Philips comeback attempt
was in Presho, Thursday, February
7. The Scotties are in District 14B,
while the Raiders are in District
13B
The first quarter was a slow siz-
ing up of each team by the other.
Low scores were balanced with ball
passing and down-the-floor action.
The second quarter was a speed up
for the Raiders, but the Scotties
could only get one more point.
The second half began with
Lyman continuing its new pace,
while Philip put it in high gear to
try to make up for the second quar-
ter. The final quarter saw Philip
close in on their opponents, getting
within just four points before the
game was over.

part apart, belonged to the Lady
Scotties. The one-point lead was
still held by Philip come halftime.
The third quarter saw a tied 11-11
score. The final quarter had four
points being put in by the Scotties,
but seven being sunk by the
Raiders, for a close loss for Philip.

Scotties fall to Dupree Tigers
A slow start was turned around
by the Philip Scotties boys basket-
ball team against the visiting
Lyman Raiders, Friday, February
8.
The Scotties got the tip-off, then
lost possession and watched the
Raiders sink a three-pointer to be
first on the scoreboard. Almost a
full minute into play, Philip got a
field goal of its own. They then
could not sink anything else until
two minutes remained in the quar-
ter, while Lyman racked up a 13-
point lead.
The first three minutes of the
second quarter saw an explosive
comeback by Philip, pulling up to a
16-19 score. With 1:50 still on the
first half clock, the Scotties
grabbed the lead 25-24, only to
watch a Lyman three-pointer go in
before the buzzer.
The third quarter was a teeter-
totter of scoring, with Philip more
often ahead. A Lyman player
wound up, the buzzer sounded as
the ball was going up, and the third
quarter ended with the Raiders
holding a one-point lead.
Ball possession kept changing
hands during the final quarter.
Philip reclaimed the lead, only to
lose it. From the five minute mark,
the Scotties kept the lead, barely
staying ahead of the Lyman bas-
kets. A 1:20 was still on the clock
when Lyman tied the game at 51-
51. After a timeout, Philip had pos-
session and 17 seconds to do some-
thing to try and win the game. A
Scottie player wound up, the
buzzer sounded and a three-point
shot found its mark ... only to have
the referees determine the buzzer
came before the shot left the
players hands. The game was tied.
Overtime, though, was anticli-
mactic. Philip owned the score-
board. Out of the four minutes of
play, Lyman could do nothing to
slow the Philip onslaught of field
goals and free throws. With only 28
seconds left, the Raiders finally
made one field goal. Philip kept up
its own scoring until the buzzer de-
clared a clear win for the Philip
Scotties.

The Philip junior varsity game
was a Scottie walk-away. The first

Scotties showed a 21-point lead.
Philip had doubled Lyman, 42-21,
by the end of the third quarter. By
the final buzzer, the Scotties were
still almost doubled in score over
their opponents, for an easy win.

Hartmanns. Other than that, they
just settled in to enjoy the blizzard
over the weekend.
Max and Joyce Jones were in
Blunt last Friday to help with
Eastern Star Official Visit. They
had planned to be in the Black
Hills for more Eastern Star work
over the weekend, but it was post-
poned due to weather.
Shirley Halligan was in town for
an Altar Guild meeting Wednes-
day. Following the meeting, Shirley
joined Reta Lathem and Lila
Briggs for lunch in honor of Reta's
86th birthday. Happy birthday to
Reta. Saturday, Shirley and Laura
Hand traveled to Pierre to attend a
screening of "The Buffalo King," a
documentary film about James
"Scotty" Philip, produced and di-
rected by Justin Koehler, son of
Mike and Cindy Koehler of the
Midland area. Shirley said it was
excellent. The film has been en-
tered in several upcoming film fes-
tivals, and hopefully it will gain the
recognition it deserves. Following
is some information regarding
Scotty Philip, borrowed from "The
Buffalo King" facebook page. "Scot-
tish-born James (Scotty) Philip was
a successful rancher and promi-
nent cattleman. He served as
guide, scout, and dispatch rider at
Fort Robinson. In 1881, he began
ranching and soon became involved
in real estate, banking and politics
as well. Philip is credited with
helping to save the bison from ex-
tinction. His herd of 57 buffalo
grew to 900 and formed the basis
for several herds in the country, in-
cluding the herd now at Custer
State Park. Eulogized as "a man of
large stature, large plans and large
heart," Philip was one of the first
South Dakotans named to the Na-
tional Cowboy Hall of Fame." Con-
gratulations to Justin and others
involved in this project!
Kevin Neuhauser, Randy
Neuhauser, Mitch Norman, and
T.J. Gabriel attended a Masonic
Lodge meeting in Philip last
Wednesday evening. Friday, Kevin
caught a ride into Pierre, and he
and Mary attended a hockey game
before returning to the ranch. Mary
returned to her job in Pierre Mon-
day morning following our week-
end snowstorm.
Connie Hudson took son Avery to
Pierre Saturday so he could take
the ACT test. Avery is a junior at
Philip High School. Jon took son
Noah to a 4-H meeting and BB gun
practice Saturday at Kirley Hall.
Connie reported that there are two
new students at Cheyenne School,
bringing their total to 11 students.
There was a birthday party this
past weekend for Hailee Briggs,
four-year-old daughter of Chase
and Kelly Briggs. In honor of the
birthday, Chase and Kelly took the
kids swimming in Pierre. Happy
birthday to Hailee!
Ron and Helen Beckwith's
daughter, Lori, has spent the past
week at the ranch with her par-
ents. They traveled to Pierre Sat-
urday so Lori's sister, Rose Briggs,
could give her a haircut. They did-
n't stay in town long, because the
threat of bad weather made them
hurry back to the ranch. Ron has
been doing chores for Ben Doty
while Ben attended funeral serv-
ices for his grandfather. Ben works
for Lee Smith at the former Hamil-
ton and Harsha places. Friend Rick
Harter came from Rapid City to do
some goose hunting over the week-
end. Monday, neighbor Ben and
some of his friends from Wisconsin
were guests of Ron and Helen, and
they enjoyed a fish fry.
I was in Philip Thursday to make
preparations for an upcoming
Farm Bureau meeting. I then went
to Kadoka to visit my mother,
Letoy Brown. We took advantage of
the nice weather and paid a visit to
my aunt, Florence Hogen. Friday,
mom and I took care of some er-
rands, and mom kept a doctor's ap-
pointment at the Kadoka Clinic.
We also stopped in to visit the crew
at the Jackson County Courthouse,
where mom spent so many years
serving as the county treasurer. I
returned to the ranch Friday
evening.
This week, I am grateful for run-
ning water. When we lived in a
trailer house during the first year
or so of our marriage, it wasn't un-
usual to have frozen pipes. What a
pain that was. I got to thinking this
week about our ancestors who had
to haul every bit of water they
used. I've heard stories about how
the water was hauled in and
heated to do the laundry, then after
all the clothes were washed, that
same water was used to wash the
floor or whatever else needed
washing, and when the water was
too dirty to clean anything else, it
was dumped on the garden to help
the vegetables grow. The same
went for bath time, which usually
occurred once a week. The water
was heated and poured into a gal-
vanized tub, and family members
took turns taking a bath in the
same water. I'm sure the bath
water was a little cool and not too
clean by the time the last bath was
completed. After watching the
amount of water I use in this house
on a normal day, I think I could use
a lesson in conserving. It is some-
thing to think about. I am guilty of
taking our water for granted.
I hope all of you have a wonder-
ful week. Remember, Thursday,
February 14, is Valentine's Day.
But every day is a good day to let
your loved ones know how much
you care.

Community News Service
The four percent sales tax on
food items remains intact after a
proposal to cut it failed to make it
out of the House Taxation Commit-
tee recently.
The tax would have been de-
creased to zero percent, which
through a technicality, would have
allowed cities to continue charging
their one or two percent currently
in place.
Representative Marc Feinstein,
D-Sioux Falls, led the discussion,
noting that the approximate nine
percent of sales tax revenue
shouldnt be wagging the dog of 91
percent of revenue ... nine percent
is not that significant.
This was the fifth year for this
attempt, but Feinstein noted that
the reasons it had been voted down
before are no longer there.
We tax ... sales tax on baby food
and formula, Feinstein said, but
not for pigs and horses thats
wrong.
Rep. Ray Ring, D-Vermillion,
and a retired college economics pro-
fessor, backed up Feinsteins argu-
ment, noting 64,000 are in the bot-
tom 20 percent of income. Through
calculations, he noted that these
families should pay 30 percent of
their food bill, with the other 70
percent covered by food stamps. In
actual expense, he said, about half
of their food expense is covered by
food stamps and the other half they
would pay the tax.
Feinstein said for a family of
three, with a net income of $1,591
per month, or grossing $24,000 per
year, they would receive only $86
in food stamps.
That is a lot less than the aver-
age of $312 per month that is
touted in discussions, Feinstein
said.
We have an immoral tax sys-
tem, commented Rep. Bernie Hun-
hoff, D-Yankton, adding in South
Dakota we have the poorest of the
poor, yet they are taxed for food.
The bill was resisted by the state
Department of Revenue, and the
Bureau of Finance and Manage-
ment. Officials said the states
broad tax base allows many to pay
a little without placing a large bur-
den on anyone. Those states with-
out sales tax on food, it was noted,
generally have another source of
money, such as Alaska with its oil
production.
Despite the passionate support of
Democrats, their four votes were
the only ones cast to pass the bill,
while 10 voted to kill it. It was sent
to the 41st day, an action meant to
keep it from being brought up
again during this session.
Removal of sales tax on food
