Darrel Mischkeprovides elk burgersfor retirement party 5 years as barber in Gowrie. . .

Saturday, Aug. 30 friends and familyfrom all around came to Gowrie to celebratethe retirement of Darrel Mischke, long timebarber.

Darrel had been Gowrie’s barber for 45years, in a building that has seen three barbersin the last 102 years. The length of Darrel’s ca-reer is not common, as typically barbers onlystay in the profession an average of 10 years.

Darrel did sell his business to PhillipDeCastro, formerly of Los Angeles. DeCastrois the son-in-law of Gowrie residents Dean and

Vicki Vinchattle Interestingly enough, whenDarrel started back in 1969, he wasn’t a localnative either. Darrel showed his love of hunting at hisretirement party by cooking 243 Elk burgers,all coming from his hunting trips. The crowdenjoyed 30 pounds of potato salad, 100 bags ofchips, and eight gallons of lemonade with 16gallons of “adult” beverages.

Darrel has always been involved in thecommunity happenings, one of the things heloves, and with retiring he will have even moretime to show his support for Gowrie.

Jaguars manhandle, defeat defendingstate champion Carroll Kuemper 17-7Strong SV rushing attack, crushing defense. . .

By Glenn Schreiber

Southeast Valley was a giant killer Fridaynight as they defeated defending state championCarroll Kuemper 17-7.

The last time Carroll Kuemper lost a dis-trict football game was in 2010, about four yearsago.

“This was a great accomplishment forour team,” said coach Mike Swieter. The Jag-uars accomplished something other teams havebeen trying to do “for a long time” without anysuccess. “If people don’t know about SoutheastValley they do now,” declared Swieter. The Jaguars led all the way and had a17-0 halftime lead. Carroll Kuemper didn’t scoretheir lone touchdown until the fourth quarter.

Jaguar Jay Lizer ran 47 yards for a touch-down and Dakota Jaeschke had a 25 yard eldgoal. Aaron Swieter led the rushing attack with103 yards on 10 carries including a 63-yard run.And the Jaguars didn’t have any turnovers.

“When we win the line of scrimmage weare a very good football team,” said Swieter.The Jaguars rushed for 328 yards while hold-ing Kuemper to 77 yards on the ground. “Wedenitely dominated the line of scrimmage,” as-serted the coach. In the fourth series SV quarterback MylesDavis ran 19 yards for a touchdown and TristanEwing ran two yards for a two-point conversiongiving the Jaguars had a commanding 17-0 leadat halftime. Initially the Jaguars pounded the ball onthe ground but couldn’t score a touchdown. ButDakota Jaeschke kicked a 25 yard eld goal. The Jaguar defense smothered a sur-prised Kuemper offense and after a three and outSV started with a ve yard pass from quarterbackDavis to Conner Conrad for ve yards, the only

pass completion in the game for the Jaguars. But that didn’t matter. On the next playJay Lizer sprinted 47 yards and a touchdown.Later in the half the Jaguars concluded their scor-ing with the touchdown run by Davis. “Kuemper gave everything they had inthe second half to make this a game, but our de-fense stood strong,” said coach Swieter. In thefourth quarter CK completed two big pass playsto avoid a shutout. Unfazed, the Jaguar offense controlledthe ball with their running game, taking valuabletime off the clock. “We needed to play smart andcontrol the clock in the second half,” explained

coach Swieter. “We held onto the lead as wecontrolled the ball.” He added, “Our defense had to work hardin the second half and we made big plays when itcounted.”SV Defensive leaders Linebacker Tom Nahnsen, defensivetackle Chase Mobley and defensive end TristanEwing led in assisted tackles with seven apiece.Mobley and Ewing had two solo tackles, tyingcornerback Cade King and linebacker Jay Liz-er for that high mark. Defensive tackle JohnnyLautner also had two solo tackles.

Rushing leaders Aaron Swieter led the rushing attack with103 yards followed by Jay Lizer, 79; Ryan True,71; and Myles Davis, 64.Red Oak next opponent “We are very happy with our team effortand we need to enjoy this win,” said coach Swi-eter. “But we need to get focused for Red Oakthis week.” Red Oak is about three hours south ofGowrie in southwest Iowa. “Our coaches will doeverything they can do to get our boys preparedfor this game,” asserted the coach. “We really

appreciate the support of our fans and havingthem come to our games gives us a big lift.”

Forty Iowa youth ofcially began theirnew terms as State 4-H Council members at

the closing ceremonies of the annual Iowa 4-HYouth Conference on June 26. Members of State Council serve as am-bassadors for the 4-H Youth Development pro-gram throughout the state and their local coun-ties, said Brenda Allen, 4-H youth programspecialist with Iowa State University Extensionand Outreach. To be considered for a council position,each 4-H’er submitted an application and par-ticipated in interviews as a part of the state 4-Hrecognition day last spring. Allen explained thatthe youth are selected based on their leadershipand communication skills, as well as their po-tential to contribute to the larger group. Council members volunteered at theIowa State Fair and other statewide 4-H eventsthroughout the year. One of their biggest respon-sibilities is to organize and implement the an-nual Iowa 4-H Youth Conference. “The members gain leadership and com-munication skills, both through training oppor-

tunities as well as through their responsibilitiesas committee chairs and representatives of the

council at county and statewide events,” said Al-len. Another responsibility of council mem-bers as part of their role as ambassadors is tovisit counties and share information with youthregarding opportunities beyond county lines.They also coordinate, promote and oversee the4-H’ers for 4-H fundraising campaign. “The State 4-H Council strengthens the 4-HYouth Development program because they areable to connect and share with their peers someof the exciting programs, experiences and in-formation relevant to today’s teens,” said Allen.“They also provide feedback to the state 4-Hofce so we get a real perspective from current4-H’ers when implementing programming andmaking plans for the future.” Council members attend multiple re-treats throughout the year that are focused ondeveloping leadership, citizenship, communica-tion and personal life skills while also provid-

Good question, Lisa. The best way to stay warm

and safe is to make sure your gas heating systems and

appliances are in good working condition. And make

sure to get a carbon monoxide detector.

Faulty heating systems can produce carbon monoxide.

Signs of a potential carbon monoxide leak can include

flu-like symptoms like a scratchy throat, runny nose,

headache, drowsiness or nausea. Other indicators

include excessive humidity, such as frosted windows.

Oct. 8, 20145THE GOWRIE NEWSTHE GOWRIE NEWS

Back in 1915 two popular collaboratorsof the day, Egbert Van Alstyne and Gus Kahnwrote a song which was very popular “in itsday” and a feature in the 1940 movie, “It all

Came True”. However when I started hummingit a few days ago trying to remember all thewords, I am sure that memory came from eitherBing Crosby’s 1947 version or from a renditionby Mitch Miller and the Gang around 1959. Thename of that song-- “Memories”.“Childhood days, wild wood days, Among thebirds and bees; You left me alone, but still you’remy own, In my beautiful memories. ---- Mem-ories, memories; Dreams of love so true; O’erthe sea of memory I’m drifting back to you.” Last fall and again last May I tried to “gohome again”, home to the old Boxholm school-

house I knew from 1937 through 1946; back tothe old halls, the old classrooms, the old gym,the old typing room, the various grade schoolrooms, the home-ec room, science room andband and music room. Those rooms were stillthere but had changed as to their looks, appoint-

The memories linger...

ments and uses. The biggest change of all wasour old Jr./Sr. High assembly room. The win-dows weren’t as high. The stage and side rooms(one the library) were gone. The old desks were

gone, the big teacher’s desk at the back withit bell was gone, the bulletin boards and classtimes board were gone. The big sturdy table atthe back with the latest National Geographicmagazines was gone. A large computer laboccupied the front portion and an adequate ap-pearing library was in the back. Very utilitarianfor our day and age but nonetheless the waveof nostalgia could not help but creep over meand I learned at our meal and visiting with oth-ers they had felt the same way. Now that is allclosed down. Has the building been “stripped”of the equipment? I would assume so. I will

never go back again – at least not into the “old”building.Time marches on but one can’t help but havethat yearning for the past, if even for a few mo-ments. If I could go back to the in town house,my only home in Boxholm, would I noticechanges? Surely I would. I know the house isstill standing at the end of the street and I thinkit still has its stucco “shell”. It once had beau-tiful vines growing along the west side andcreeping up and clinging to the stucco. I amsure the little “ower” garden Mom and I hadin the SE corner of the yard probably has been

long gone along with the plum trees that linedtwo sides and the close by small grapevine hasno doubt disappeared. Mom could make thebest concord grape pie (a tedious job). I havenever learned to do it. Thought about it a yearor so ago but concord grapes are not abundantthese days. Has the bathroom and kitchen been up-dated since the 40’s. I would think necessitywould dictate that. After all who wants a coaland wood range or a hot water heater in theirkitchen now? Who wants an old claw foot tub?Most like the availability of a shower. Do thecolonnades still stand between the dining andliving rooms? Have the windows been replacedso the wind and snow don’t blow through someof them? Is there a “modern” furnace in thebasement and perhaps more updated duct workand heat registers? Is the front enclosed porchstill there and functional? Is the barn still there and the loft stillsturdy enough to climb up to it? That’s wherethe mother cat had left her kittens and I climbedup several times a day to feed them until shenally got to come back and took them to theirhome. Do the current residents have the gardenbetween the house and barn and another behind

the barn?I am sure the answers to my questions

would afrm that the old place has changedconsiderably. Why wouldn’t it? Who wantsto live in a 1920’s home that has remained inthose days? But you can’t go home again. Thememories will have to sufce and they are goodones. “O’er the sea of memories I’m driftingback to you.”

Many children grow upwith big dreams. Some dream ofbecoming astronauts. Others wantto be professional athletes or fa-mous actresses. Often such dreamssubside over time and give way to“realistic” goals. But Charles Zi-arko, 73, a native to rural Iowa, is atestament to what a small-town kidwith ambition can accomplish.

Ziarko’s grandfather, GusAnderson, traveled from Swedento Farnhamville and bought a farmat the end of 19th century. Ziarko

grew up in Rockwell City and wentto the movies two—if not three—times every week.

“I saw a world out therethat was so much better than theworld I was living in I wanted to bepart of it,” he said.

After he graduated fromhigh school in 1958 he went to col-lege at Northwestern University

and graduated from University of

California, Los Angeles.“I studied the movies be-cause I always wanted to be in-volved in them behind the scenes,”he said. “From the time I was tenyears old I knew that was going tobe my career one way or another.” In 1967 Ziarko participatedin pilot program aimed at allowingmore people to join the Director’sGuild of America. The programwas the Assistant Director Train-ing Program, which still operatestoday. According to the guild’s

website membership reached 3,300people that year.

“Before those days if youwanted to get into the movie busi-ness you had to be born into it,” hesaid. “It was a very tightly closedshop.”

After joining the guild hebecame an assistant director andheld that job for a quarter of a cen-

tury. He worked on a variety ofmovies and TV shows ranging from“All the President’s Men” (releasedin 1976) to “Swamp Thing” the TVseries (released in 1990). His career took him aroundthe world from the Deep South toMexico to Japan where he workedon the lming on “Shogun.” As anassistant director he said his jobwas primarily to help coordinatethe activities on set.

“[I made sure] everyoneknew what they’re doing and atwhat time and everybody was mov-

ing together,” he said. The actors and actresses heworked with include names likeSteve McQueen, Paul Newman,and Joanne Woodward. Above allhe said his job was great fun.

“I got to travel to a lot ofplaces, I had a good income, andit was really interesting work to dobecause every day was different,”he said.

Ziarko’s career in Holly-wood came to an end in the early‘90s and he accredits this to two

causes. He was middle aged andemployers doing the hiring for pro-ductions were younger and reluc-tant to hire older people.

He also said at this timethe Directors’ Guild eliminatedgeographical barriers by allow-ing members around the countryto work anywhere in the countryrather than in only their region. Sothe pool of people he was compet-ing with for jobs grew. Ultimately,“Swamp Thing” was the last pro-duction he worked on.

“I always say I have to get

another job so my obit doesn’t say‘Last worked on “Swamp thing”,’”he said. “I didn’t know when I n-ished “Swamp Thing” that I wouldnever work again.”

After his lm career endedZiarko worked in visitor services atGetty Center Museum until he re-tired in 2004. He currently lives inthe heart of Hollywood, six blocksfrom the Dolby Theater where theAcademy Awards are held.

The worship drama, “Witnesses” will beperformed at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church inCallender on Sunday, October 12th at 4:00 p.m.The one-man play, written by Curt Cloninger,features professional actor and speaker, Jona-than P. Swenson.

In this dramatic and very personal perfor-mance, Swenson portrays eight different charac-ters (historical and imagined) as each respondsto Jesus. Through the eyes of these characters,both comic and serious, the audience is chal-

lenged to see Jesus from fresh perspectives; notcold and distant, but as one who was intimatelyinvolved in the “nitty-gritty” of life.

Swenson is a graduate of Gustavus Adol-phus College (B.A. in Psychology, Theater andMusic, 1988) and Luther Seminary (Master’s ofDivinity, 1994). He has served as an ordainedminister for nearly 20 years. Jonathan frequent-ly performs in community and professionaltheater events, combining his musical theaterpassions with intentional evangelical outreach.Swenson is also the Founding Director of Para-phrase Theatre, a faith-based theater companyin Cedar Rapids, IA. As part of Paraphrase

Theatre, Swenson is traveling throughout thecountry performing two shows, both written byCurt Cloninger, titled Witnesses and Celebratethe Child.

Dear Editor, During the course of this campaignseason, Daryl Beall has represented himself assomeone who reaches across the aisle to workin a bipartisan fashion with Senate Republicans.Though his statement is indeed factual, it does

lack some truth. As a former state representa-tive, I know something about how things workat the State Capitol. You see, the majority ofthe work done at our State Capitol is bipartisan.An overwhelming majority of the bills passedin both chambers are passed with Republicanand Democrat support. With that logic, everyone of the 150 incumbent Iowa Legislators canprofess to be bipartisan. Reaching across the aisle to work in abipartisan manner was certainly lacking whencritical State budget bills were passed underthen Governor Chet Culver by an obedient dem-ocrat legislative majority. Those budget bills

far exceeded state revenue and within the scalyear, a 10% across the board budget cut had tobe imposed. That had a devastating effect onState agencies and many programs that low in-come and needy Iowans depended upon. Thatalso created nancial challenges for Iowa’s ed-ucation systems. Fortunately, in the 3 ½ yearssince Governor Branstad came back into ofce,that nancial mess has largely been correctedand Iowa is once again moving forward.Before you vote, I encourage you to put cam-paign rhetoric and claims in their proper per-spective. Remember, in a democracy we getwhat we deserve.

We have the opportunity to elect some-one to the District 5 Senate seat who is sincereand will look out for us and believes responsiblespending a must, not just campaign rhetoric toget elected. Tim Kraayenbrink is that candidatewho cares about responsible spending and rep-resentative government. I am asking you to castyour vote for Republican Tim Kraayenbrink forIowa Senate District 5.

Sincerely,Dave TjepkesFormer Iowa House Representative, District 50
