GRANVILLE — Put-nam County Community Unit School Superinten-dent Jay McCracken gave an update to the Putnam County School Board at the meeting on May 19 concerning school financ-es.

Senate Bill 16 or the School Funding Reform Act of 2014 if passed would bring financial problems to the district. The bill as it is currently written wants to take money from finan-cially well-performing school districts and give it to under-funded school districts.

If the bill were to pass, approximately 85 per-cent of its funding or in dollar terms, $879,000 would be lost in one year. McCracken, who is fol-lowing the process of this bill before and after a trip to Springfield, thinks that it will not pass, at least this year.

If the bill does not pass during this current leg-islative session, there is still a possibility it may come back in another form to be passed into law, McCracken said. If passed, the district would take a financial penalty over at least four years. In the first year, the bud-get would be hit with a 15 percent reduction,

followed by a 40 percent reduction in funds the second year. The next two following years there would be other financial penalties.

On the flip side of the financial coin, McCrack-en informed the board the state is almost entire-ly caught up with overdue payments to the Putnam County School District.

McCracken explained to the board the enter-prise zone will be coming to an end within three years, and this will be a financial benefit to the district. Due to several projects coming off after 10 years, the amount of money which the district can look forward to is in the neighborhood of $873,000.

Under the principal reports, the PC Board heard the ACT test results have come back, and that the average scores of the 68 seniors was 20 or above. The junior high school is making arrange-ments to purchase a new junior high language arts curriculum which will contract for the next six years.

The district also leased a new 2014 Chevrolet Collins school bus for the next three years. The bus seats 18 plus one wheel-chair seat. The cost will be $9,264.

The next certificate of deposit that will mature is in November of the current year at First State Bank. It will be put out to bid in early November.

Granville to apply for CDAP grant

Hennepin’s Front Street to be resurfaced

McCracken keeping track of the scenario

By Ken [email protected]

GRANVILLE — The Granville Village Board voted to apply for a Community Develop-ment Assistance Program (CDAP) grant at its May 20 board meeting. The decision was made fol-

lowing a public hearing made before the village meeting and passed dur-ing the regular agenda.

The grant application will be for $349,956 to be used for some reno-vation at the wastewater treatment building. Brine storage at the facility has been indoors since the new building was

erected, and the corro-sive nature of the salt has resulted in damage to the interior and the plant’s equipment. The grant will move the tanks outside the building and cover the cost of piping the materials into the building. The total cost of the project is $466,608.

Ben Wilson of the North

Central Illinois Council of Governments is assisting the board in applying for the grant.

In other action, the board:

• Passed three reso-lutions specifically to enable the village to apply for the grant.


HENNEPIN — The Hennepin Village Board approved street and curb repairs for village streets with most of the work taking place on Front Street.

Front Street will get a makeover starting at High Street and moving north through the Court Street intersection. Vil-lage engineer Bill Shafer explained the plans at the village board meet-ing May 21.

The present street surface will be ground out with new pavement laid afterward. In addi-tion, the curb will be repaired, and the exist-ing handicap ramps will be brought up to current code. A second handicap ramp will be added at Ray’s Place, and a cart ramp will be added in front of Hennepin Food Mart.

Work will also be done on the sidewalk outside the senior citizen hous-ing building to eliminate a trip hazard. A ramp will be installed to allow easy walking from the sidewalk to the street.

Total cost for the street and curb work will be $56,500. Funding for the project will come from

the motor fuel tax and the village’s continental fund. Work will begin in August.


• Agreed to pay $1,000 for additional police protection for the vil-lage’s Fourth of July cel-ebration. The board also voted to donate $1,100 to the Putnam County Education Foundation in honor of the Citizen of the Year.

• Accepted a bid of $4,000 for the old village truck that was for sale.

• Heard a report from Street Depart-ment supervisor Tim Rylko said new “no fish-ing” signs will soon be installed on the Illinois River dock. Rylko also told the board he had to order a new motor for the village fountain.

• Will issue a reminder for residents it is illegal to blow grass clippings into curbed streets.

• Set street sweeping for late June in prepara-tion of the Fourth of July celebration.

• Approved $100 dona-tions for Operation Prom-ise, the Marshall-Putnam Fair Queen Pag-eant and the Colors for Arie color run. A $50 donation was approved for the Putnam County Historical Society.

Johannes handled discipline incidentAt the May meeting of the Putnam County School

Board, Superintendent Jay McCracken informed the board of a disciplinary incident on one of the district’s buses.

On April 25, Rob Mathews of the Regional Safe Schools program reported a discipline incident to Johannes Bus Service in which he had received a notice from the bus driver. The report stated four boys were involved in smoking an e-cigarette on the bus. The district and Johannes reviewed videotape which demonstrated the violation. They were removed from the bus as a result of this incident.

In a follow-up provided to the district, Johannes responded adequately to the situation and had answers that demonstrated additional evidence to clarify all issues, McCracken said.

McCracken noted that due to the end of the school year, there is traditionally a few more problems due to the restless nature of the students. He has been happy with Johannes diligence in dealing with these issues.

Ellena resigns from county board

Rawlings: No high alert Winter’s toll on Mark


HENNEPIN — Board member Jordan Ellena resigned from the Putnam County Board at its May 12 meeting to take a job in Independence, Mo. Ellena had announced earlier this year he would not seek re-election this fall, but would finish out his term. Howev-er, Ellena said the job offer was too good to pass up.

The board also made appointments to various county positions. Joel Elle-na was appointed as trustee

to the Standard Fire Protec-tion District. John Ehrhardt was appointed to the eth-ics commissioner post to fill the position left open by Jim Goldasich. Megan Spradling was appoint-ed to replace the retiring Marty Sloan as chief pro-bation supervising officer for Marshall, Putnam and Stark counties. Finally, John Peterson was re-appointed as trustee to the Marshall-Putnam River Conservancy District.


• Set a special meeting for the purpose of discuss-

ing pay hikes for the board members at 6:30 a.m. on May 16. As an outcome of that meeting, board mem-bers whose term starts in December of this year will receive 3 percent the first year and 2 percent for the following three years.

• Passed a resolution awarding bids for township and county maintenance stations using funds from the motor fuel tax.

• Approved the county health insurance contract for the year beginning July 1 and ending June 30, 2015.

• Passed the annual Pre-vailing Wage Ordinance.

MERS-CoV being monitored

By donna BarKerShaw Media Service

PRINCETON — Health officials across the country, state and Put-nam County are con-tinuing to monitor the appearance of the Mid-dle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) in the Unit-ed States.

The first case of MERS in the United States was confirmed May 2 in Indiana and involved a traveler who had recently returned from Saudi Arabia. A second imported case of MERS in the United States was reported May 11 in Flor-ida and involved a trav-eler from Saudi Arabia who had no connection with the first case. The third case involved an Illinois resident who was considered to have had close contact with the first case.

Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) Director Dr. LaMar Has-brouck said the risk to the general public becoming infected with MERS-CoV still remains low. It was out of an abundance of caution that the IDPH conducted a rigorous

follow-up with the Illi-nois individual and have identified this person to have been infected with MERS-CoV at one time. Previous MERS-CoV ill-nesses have not shown to be spread easily from person-to-person in communities, Hasb-rouck said.

“The Illinois Depart-ment of Public Health (IDPH), working with our local health depart-ments, will remain vigi-lant for any new MERS-CoV infections and we are prepared with surveillance, guidance and testing to handle any additional infec-tions,” Hasbrouck said.

B u r e a u / P u t n a m County Health Depart-ment Director Diana Rawlings said the local health departments are not on high alert at this time. The monitor-ing of the MERS-CoV is being followed, and any developments are being tracked. The IDPH has sent out information to doctors about the con-tinuing surveillance and for what symptoms to watch. She is not overly concerned at this time about any widespread MERS-CoV outbreak, Rawlings said.

As with MERS-CoV and other respiratory illnesses, the important thing to remember is for

people to follow basic good health principals, like the frequent wash-ing of hands, covering up coughs, staying away from people who are sick as much as possible, and disinfecting frequently touched areas, Rawlings said.

The Centers for Dis-ease Control and Pre-vention reports that 70 percent of the people who get infected with MERS-CoV will have mild, cold-like symp-toms, like fever, cough and shortness of breath, Rawlings said. The stud-ies show that the 30 per-cent who have died from the illness are those with underling health issues, she said.

Fortunately, there is a wonderful health sur-veillance system in the United States and even across the world, Raw-lings said. The local health department will keep the public informed of any changes or updates of which they need to be aware, she said.

The IDPH has reacti-vated the medical staff at Illinois Poison Center to operate the MERS-CoV hotline. Illinois residents and medical professionals who have concerns or questions should call 844 565-0256.

Repairs on the agenda


MARK — Winter clean-up was the main topic at the Mark Village Board meeting on May 20.

“The backwash lagoon at the water plant is dam-aged,” village engineer Jack Kusek said. “Winter was pretty hard on the dividing wall, and it needs to be replaced. We could have someone push some sheet piling in to make a

new wall. That would take care of it until we can do something more perma-nent.”

The board instructed Kusek to get some pricing figures before repairing the lagoon.

Kusek also told the board some inspection of the storm and sewer lines was also in the works.

Board member Leon-ard Bertuli told the board there were a large number of potholes needing work and suggested coordi-nating with the village of Granville to have repairs done in both communi-ties on the same day to

possibly save each village some money in expenses.

In other action:• Kusek told the board

the village should be able to go out for bids on the St. Paul Street project at the June 3 meeting. Dis-cussion was conducted on components of the project and how they will affect residents.

• The Mark Celebration has been set for Aug. 2. Plans are in progress and new garbage contain-ers and picnic tables are being acquired for the park. Bands and inflata-bles have been contract-ed.

Carus recognized for ongoing ‘green’ effortsFast food breakfasts and local ingredients

Health department releases scores

LASALLE — Today, the manufacturing process at Carus Corporation’s larg-est plant requires 28 per-cent less energy than it did four years ago. The drop is a result of ongoing efficien-cy efforts at Carus’ LaSal-le site, and it has placed Carus in an elite group of industry leaders.

The American Chem-istry Council is honoring Carus Corporation with an

Exceptional Merit Energy Efficiency Award. Carus is one of only six companies to be distinguished with exceptional merit this year; it is the only non-fortune 500 company in the group.

This year marks Carus’ fourth consecutive year winning the Energy Effi-ciency Award, and the sec-ond time in four years the environmental company has received Exceptional

Merit distinction.“Carus provides innova-

tive environmental solu-tions to customers around the world. In staying true to our company’s vision, we are committed to oper-ating responsibly and sus-tainably,” said Dave Kuzy, Carus’ president and chief operating officer. “To be recognized repeatedly by industry leaders for our environmental efforts is a

great honor.”Carus participates in the

Department of Energy’s Save Energy Now LEADER program, in which compa-nies pledge to reduce their energy consumption by 25 percent over the course of a decade. Four years in, Carus has already exceed-ed the 10-year goal. Much of Carus’ success can be attributed to equipment upgrades.

Two seemingly unrelat-ed activities are happening around Illinois. First, there is a new food fight under-way, as fast food chains battle over who will serve the best, newest and most unusual breakfast.

The opening salvo was initiated by Taco Bell when it rolled out its Waffle Taco. McDonald’s responded with a renewed emphasis on its McGriddle breakfast headliner. Simul-taneously, and no surprise to anyone driving around the state, is the very active pace of corn planting and field preparation for soybean planting that is currently underway. If we blend the ongoing battle for breakfasts with plant-ing activity around the state, the success of these breakfast offerings could have an effect on corn and soybean farmers.

Fast food operators, as they offer up breakfasts, are a market for Illinois soybeans. McDonald’s Sausage, Egg and Cheese McGriddle contains ingre-dients from soybeans – not a lot, but some. For exam-ple, according to the web-site Foodfacts.com, the McGriddle uses soybean oil, soy flour and soybean lecithin. The Taco Bell Waffle Taco with sausage includes both soybean oil and soy flour.

Illinois soybeans can enter the food chain in a variety of ways, in addi-tion to fast food breakfasts. Soybean oil is used for cooking and baking, in margarine and in a wide variety of breads, crack-ers, cakes and cookies. For example, again citing information from Food-facts.com, many cook-ies contain soy oil or soy

lecithin, or both. In a more direct manner, soybeans may enter the food chain as soy grits, soy waffles, in a variety of dairy related products such as soy milk and soy ice cream, soy burgers, and of course, tofu and soy cooking oil.

Local corn farmers are also helped by fast food operators using a variety of different corn based ingre-dients in their offerings. The McGriddle uses corn oil. Several additional breakfast items at McDonald’s use corn based ingredients, including the Bacon, Egg and Cheese Biscuit contain-ing corn syrup, corn protein and corn starch. For Taco Bell, to get corn ingredients, you will need to order up a Grilled Taco, which con-tains corn syrup.

So keep in mind, when you bite into that fast food breakfast, that you could easily be enjoying some locally produced Illinois ingredients, grown and har-vested by a farmer you may know. This gives a whole new meaning to the con-cept of local foods and the U.S. Department of Agricul-ture’s “Know your farmer, know your food” initiative.

Professor William Bai-ley formerly was the chief economist for the U.S. Senate Committee on Agri-culture, Food and Nutri-tion. He also has served as Deputy-Under Secretary of Agriculture. He is currently affiliated with Western Illinois University School of Agriculture.

The Bureau/Putnam County Health Depart-ment makes routine and unannounced visits each month to various food service establishments in Bureau and Putnam counties to inspect the operation.

Health inspectors use an identical scorecard at each facility, where they check for health code

compliance in 45 areas. Each area carries a rat-ing from one to five, with five being the most criti-cal. Inspectors check the entire operations of the facility in 14 different categories, such as food protection, personnel and garbage and refuse dis-posal.

Beginning with a score of 100 points, the health

inspector deducts one to five points for every vio-lation. The final total is the facility’s inspection report score. A passing food inspection score is 65 or above.

At 65, the Bureau/Put-nam County ordinance allows the health depart-ment to close an estab-lishment, but a score doesn’t have to be that

low for the department to close it. It depends on the number of critical and non-critical violations and the type of violations. Certain combinations can create a domino effect for food borne outbreaks.

All inspection reports are a matter of public record and can be seen at the Bureau County Health Department in Princeton.

Limping through life with my inanimate crutches

Spreading awareness

The other morning, I forgot my pencil bag for my first hour class.

Now, that may not seem so cat-astrophic, but it was. I had noth-ing to write with in the class in which I write the most. I turned around to ask someone to borrow one, possibly for the day, pray-ing she wasn’t a selfish person that keeps only one pencil, like I do. She wasn’t; she was generous enough to let me have it.

Either way, in that second of searching for my once-white, hand-me-down canvas pencil bag, I was terrified. I felt exposed, like I was expected to stand at the front of the class and explain a concept of calculus we hadn’t touched upon yet. I was way more uneasy than I should have been. How could I have left it in my locker?

It’s funny how important small objects can be. I can’t leave the house without my iPod, and a pen and paper. I know that 90 percent of the population is physically incapable of leaving their phones in another room. I cannot go to work or school without my Brita water bottle: 1. It’s convenient and economically friendly with

its filter, and 2. It’s just really nice to have a water bottle handy. It’s better than constantly drink-ing soda or juice. Plus, it has somehow become my security blanket. One day my boss was kind enough to run it out to me as I was in the process of driving away. I don’t think she realizes how grateful I was for that.

It is sad how reliant I am on a plastic water bottle and an old pencil bag. The pencil bag is important to carry around, but I was still startled at how frazzled I was without it. It was almost like I lost a limb.

The next day, I tried to imagine how my day would go without other things. I may be able to function without my one cup of coffee, though it would turn out to be a very long day, but my iPod? The ride to school would be plagued with synthesized music that makes me question the lyri-

cists’ and musicians’ sobriety. If I ran out of loose leaf paper, my undesignated green notebook would be empty after first hour, and I’d have to steal from my Official Shakespeare Notebook by third hour, which couldn’t make it for ninth hour Shakespeare (that might me a slight exaggera-tion …). What about a book or a magazine to read?! I’d be lost without one! I don’t talk much, so anything to keep me busy is a blessing.

Exaggerations or not, life is tough. We fall into grooves with the people and instruments around us. Anything to make our lives remotely easier, we cling to. If only one thing is absent from our routine, our whole day can be shifted. Who knows if it could be better and that object can be eliminated from our day, or it will turn our day upside down? But I guess dependency on inanimate objects is something to re-evalu-ate in one’s daily life …

Maddi Loiselle, 17, of Hennepin is a junior at Putnam County High School. She can be reached in care of this newspaper at P.O. Box 48, Granville, IL 61326.

Lately, I’ve been finding out that the month of May has been proclaimed a lot of things. For example, May is National Bike Month, Motorcycle Aware-ness Month, Mental Health Month, National Stroke Awareness Month, Older Americans Month and National Physical Fitness and Sports Month, among many more.

However, going through the list, there is one proc-lamation that hits near and dear to me— Arthritis Awareness Month.

You might be asking yourself, of all things, why would a young, seemingly healthy lady care about that one? Truth is, I am one of millions who have been diagnosed with arthritis.

Just three years ago, when I was 23, I found out I had been suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Crazy, huh?

Leading up until the day of my diagnosis, my hands had become so swollen and stiff that my mother had to start getting up with me in the mornings to help me do the basic everyday things like twist the shower nozzle, brush my hair and teeth and get the little but-tons on my work blouse.

It was a bit scary and very unsettling at the time. I was beginning a new post-college chapter in my life and just starting to get the hang of things in my news reporting career. It seemed very unfair to be bur-dened with such an overwhelming diagnosis.

For those who are a little unsure about what exactly RA is, unlike the wear-and-tear damage of osteoar-thritis — the stuff our grandmas and grandpas get — it’s an autoimmune disorder that affects the lining of the joints and causes painful swelling and can lead to bone erosion and joint deformity if not properly managed.

The day I was diagnosed, I came home confused and upset. How did this happen? Where did I pick this up? Will I be crippled in five years? What will my hands look like in 20 years? The questions consumed me.

I was put on medications that eventually took away the pain, and my fingers went back to looking normal. However, I had to make some life changes. I was told to stay away from alcohol as much as pos-sible — not a fun deal for a young, social person. I had to avoid “high impact” activities — bike riding and swimming were not on my favorite list of things to do. And I had to learn to give myself an injection each week — this is something I’m still getting used to today.

I remember wondering how I would explain arthri-tis to my friends. I felt a sense of embarrassment and was ashamed to admit to others that I had something lingering that made me just a little weaker, a little slower, a little different.

It wasn’t until I started reading the monthly arthri-tis magazines my mom had purchased that I began to really feel comfortable with my situation. I read articles about people my age —some even younger— telling their stories of the disease and the medications they were forced to take and the things they learned to do to cope and move on with life.

When reading these stories, I felt comforted, a sense of relief and sometimes even grateful, as things could always be worse. Besides a limp here or there, sometimes a few swollen fingers in the morning or aches in my hands on days when there’s a dramatic weather change, I’m a pretty healthy person living with RA.

I believe reading those stories proved to me that having RA didn’t make a person odd or incapable. It just made them unique and maybe more cautious.

So today, I hope someone reads my story and is able to, in a sense, shed a feeling of being ashamed or embarrassed of a diagnosis they may be dealing with. Embrace what you have, and be grateful for the things you can do, rather than dwell on the things you cannot do.

COMMENTARY


HENRY — The Putnam County Lady Panthers have taken the first step in a journey they start-ed four years ago. That journey is to go deep into post-season play in the Illinois High School Association state series.

The team won the championship game in the IHSA regional competition against the Streator Woodland Lady Warriors on May 24 with a final score of 12-1. Pitcher Shelby Yep-sen threw a four hit gem of a game, earning five strikeouts and giving up one walk. The squad was also helped by a jittery Woodland squad who gave up five errors in the game.

Her teammates sup-ported her efforts by cranking out 11 hits over four innings, scoring the 12 runs which won the game under the four inning, 10-run rule. The big inning for the team was the bottom of the fourth. Stephanie Wilson singled to left center to start off and Nikki Mertel followed with a single to deep third. Taylor Pettit then followed with a sin-gle just past second base which loaded the bases.

Annie Miller then cleared the bases with a single, compounded with a throwing error by Woodland that gave PC three runs and put Miller on third. Monica Mon-roe took a walk during which Miller scored on a passed ball at the plate. Carly Gonet then banged an RBI double.

Venessa Voss reached on an error which pushed pinch runner Jackie Mill-er to third. Ciera Keller then hit a sacrifice fly to center, allowing Mill-er to score. Allison Voss singled but Wilson then

popped out in her sec-ond appearance at the plate that inning.

Miller was two for two in the contest with a homerun, a singled and five RBIs. She was fol-lowed by Mertel, Wilson and Gonet who all were two for three with an RBI each. Pettit was two for three and Monroe and Kreiser had an RBI and two RBIs respectively.

PC 12, Midland 2Earlier in the week, the

Lady Panthers beat the Midland Lady Timber-wolves by a score of 12-2.

Fielding by both teams was loose, with PC charged with two errors and Midland with four.

Yepsen earned the win, giving up five hits over six innings with 11 strikeouts and two walks.

The Panthers scored in the first, third and fifth innings in this contest. Venessa Voss went three for four with a double

and an RBI. Allison Voss hit three for four with a triple and three RBIs. Mertel also went three for four at the plate.

Wilson and Pettit went two for four, scor-ing three runs between them.

The Lady Panthers, now 26-7 will play at home in their own semi-final IHSA Sectional game against the Wil-liamsfield co-op at 4:30 p.m. May 28 in Granville.

Griffith runs at state meet

CHARLESTON — Put-nam County High School’s Paige Griffith has done something no female ath-lete has done in a very long time, qualify for state com-petition in the 300 meter hurdles three years in a row.

Each year has been a learning experience for Griffith and this year was no exception. She ran in heat number two of four in the Illinois High School Association State track meet on May 23 and clocked a 53.90.

The time kept her from advancing to the finals on May 24.

On the other hand, Griffith has once again taken her place among the top 30 athletes in the state in the Class 1A system in the 300 meter hurdles.

Her coach is Missy Carl-son.

Panthers win regional in extra inningsBy Dixie SchroeDer

[email protected]

GRANVILLE — It was a pitcher’s duel in the Illinois High School Association regional championship game on May 24 and the Put-nam County Panthers were up to the task. The Panthers, facing the Amboy Clippers, took a 2-2 tie into extra innings, winning in the bottom of the eighth by a score of 3-2.

Dan Pavlovich started and pitched six inning for the Panthers. Pavlovich gave up only four hits, two walks and struck out seven Clippers. Harold Fay came in the top of the seventh in relief and pitched two innings of shutout ball, giving up only one walk and striking out three.

Defense in the championship game was shaky as Amboy committed one error and Putnam County two.

Panther batters collected only five hits over the eight innings, but made them count. Neal Stasell was two for three, scoring a run. Evan Kreiser went one for one, scoring a run. R.J. Copeland was one for three. The Panthers ran the bases with steals by Kreiser, Stasell and Austin Biagini.

The big inning came in the eighth, when Biagini scored a walk, then stole second

base. He then was bought home by Harold Fay who knocked a clutch hit which allowed the Biagini to score for the winning run.

To get to the championship game, the Panthers made short work of the Earlville Red Raiders on May 21, winning by a score of 17-0. Harold Fay pitched one for the IHSA record books: a no hitter. The perfect game had Fay striking out nine in the contest.

Heavy hitters were a plenty in the contest with eight Panther players knocking in at least one RBI. Copeland hit three for three with four RBIs while Stasell went three for four with two RBIs. Kreiser went two for three with an RBI. Nick DiazDeLeon hit two for four with four RBIs. Biagini went two for four as well with two RBIs. Fay, Baker and Magana all had an RBI.

The Panthers ran the bases with no fear as they tallied seven steals on Earlville. Fay, Kreiser, Copeland and DiazDeLeon all had doubles and Copeland had a triple.

The Red Raiders also made three errors allowing Kreiser, Baker and Pavlovich to reach base.

The Panthers will take on Illinois Lutheran in the sectional semifinal game at 4:30 p.m. May 28 in their own hosted IHSA sectional contest.

Pettit signs with IVCCBy Dixie SchroeDer

[email protected]

GRANVILLE – Taylor Pettit is one young lady who knows her mind. When it came time for college, she didn’t look any farther than down the road to coach Cory Tomasson’s Lady Eagle Softball pro-gram at Illinois Valley Community Col-lege (IVCC).

Pettit, who is looking into majoring in nursing; has signed her National Letter of Intent to play softball at IVCC, which was the only school she looked at seri-ously. She felt comfortable at IVCC as she reviewed their educational offerings in the field of nursing. That they had a successful softball program was icing on the cake.

“I’m excited to have the opportunity to extend my softball career at the next level,” she said.

Pettit was a three-sport athlete at Put-nam County High School, but softball called louder to her than the other sports she played. Pettit has anchored second

base for the Lady Panthers, who have been ranked number one in their regional this season and went to the super sec-tional last season.

“She has really been an anchor in the middle of our infield since seventh grade,” said Lady Panther head softball coach Chris Walker. “As a seventh grader, she played shortstop when we won the state tournament in 2009 and the next year we flipped her over to second base, where she has been ever since. She has an exceptional glove and an even better bat.”

Tomasson, however, has plans to use Pettit’s versatility to his advantage and play her all over the field.

“She plays second base and is solid at second base, but I don’t know if that is where she’ll play for us,” he said. “That’s the nice thing, since we have a lot of nice recruits coming in, is that she is versatile. She may play at first base, maybe in the outfield or maybe at second base. She is certainly going to fit right in to the mix of things.”

Barnett, Nauman two time winners


GRANVILLE — Two Putnam County High School basketball coaches are repeat winners. That is, repeat winners as the Coach of the Year for Region 12 as rec-ognized by the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association (IBCA).

James Barnett, head coach of the Putnam County Lady Panthers, and Josh Nauman, head coach of the Putnam County Panthers, have been recognized by their peers for the second year in a row. The IBCA Coach of the Year awards are based on several criteria including post season success, regional winners and overall win-loss record.

Barnett and Nauman took their respective teams to the sectional championship game in the 2013-14 bas-ketball season. Steve Allen, IBCA recording secretary, said the coaches who are recognized are very hard working individuals.

“The IBCA believes that being selected Coach of the Year tops an already successful season. All Illi-nois coaches in all sports deserve any recognition for their hard work and dedication, and we maintain that our basketball coaches are some of the finest people teaching young folks life long lessons,” Allen said.

Barnett and Nauman both give credit to the recent classes of student-athletes who have come through the Putnam County school system. Both men also gave thanks to their coaching staffs who assist them and the team throughout the season.

The unsinkable Violet Jessop


MAGNOLIA — In the history of ocean travel, Violet Jessop was either the luckiest stewardess or the unluckiest ... depend-ing on your point of view.

On Sept. 20, 1911, Jes-sop was on board the cruise ship RMS Olympic when it was involved in a ship-to-ship collision with the HMS Hawke. No one was injured at that time. On April 15, 1912, Jessop was on the Olympic’s sis-ter ship, the RMS Titanic, when it struck an iceberg and sank. Jessop survived and later served on the third sister ship, the HMHS Britannica. On Nov. 15, the Britannica struck an underwater mine off the cost of Greece. Jessop sur-vived again.

You can find out more about this fascinating woman, and her thoughts being at sea, on June 17 at the Magnolia branch of the Putnam County Library District as it pres-ents the latest installment of the “Traces and Byways Discovered” series.

Leslie Goddard holds a Ph.D. in American history and a master’s degree in theater. Goddard portrays memorable women from the past, telling their sto-ries from a first person point of view, spending months researching each persona.

“I sort of fell into it. I did a lot of theater in high school and college, but eventually decided to go to my first love and be a history teacher,” Goddard said. “A group in Evanston contacted me and asked me to present a program on a local historical figure, and I thought, ‘Wouldn’t this be an interesting way to present a history les-son?’”

Since then, Goddard has

researched and performed several women from his-tory, including Jacqueline Kennedy, Amelia Earhardt, Margaret Powell, and of course, Violet Jessop.

“Jessop was one of the first acts I put together. I found out about her at about the same time as the Cameron movie came out,” Goddard said. “She was one of only two peo-ple who survived both the Titanic and the Britannica, but she was the only one to write memoirs of the expe-riences. It’s not only a story of the sinkings, but also what it was like to travel by ship in those days.”

Goddard said Jessop and Kennedy are her favorite programs to present.

“They’re both interest-ing women,” she said. “Jessop’s story has a build-up that’s very dra-matic, which makes it a little more compelling for audiences. Both stories feature details that most people don’t know — the Titanic had a swimming pool,; Jackie was a heavy

smoker. It’s fun to bring those details to light.”

Goddard has recently arrived at the point where she makes her living with her portrayals. She travels throughout the Midwest telling her stories.

“There’s a lot of inter-est in history these days,” Goddard said. “I perform over a hundred shows a year for schools, libraries and retirement homes. People love to learn about the past.”
