The Cornell Area Ambulance and Cornell Fire Department
were called to the scene of a two-vehicle crash east of Cornell
early Tuesday morning, Dec. 1. The accident happened on
State Highway 64 in front of Miles Ahead Auto Sales.
It was a head-on crash, said Denny Klass, fire chief. A
vehicle driven by Chad Miller (Cornell) crossed the center
line and ran head-on into Mariah Litke (Holcombe).
Klass said Litke wasnt hurt, but Miller was transported for
leg injuries by ambulance, with an intercept from Chippewa
City, to an Eau Claire hospital. Klass says Miller was bleeding pretty bad, but he wasnt sure on his condition.
The cause of the crash had not been disclosed as of deadline. Klass says he does not believe weather played a factor
in the 3:30 a.m. accident, even though conditions were kind
of bad and the fire department did block off Highway 64 for
a short time.
The Chippewa County Sheriffs record department says citations were issued for Miller, but did not say what those were.
uling.
Weve done a much better job over the last five years of
communicating the expectations to parents of what they need
to do to open the doors to post high school for their kids, said
Elliott.
Elliott says they have done things like accelerating students
in reading, science and math, so when the student is in their
senior year, they will be prepared. As a result of these efforts,

minus 53 degrees in winter (not unlike Wisconsin), and no sun shining from December
through March (again, not unlike Wisconsin), its probably not the nicest place to
visit.

Large scale sightseeing likely isnt in the
cards anytime soon, since its no easy feat
to travel to the land of the Midnight Sun,
although exploration has increased with
technological advances, most preferring to
land helicopters on the unstable platform.
Despite the instability and bitter temperatures, some countries continue to lobby
for rights to oil mining, which could have
a big ecological impact on sea life. According to an online source, experts are concerned about the consequences of an oil
spill, something that would be almost impossible to clean up with the conditions and
shifting location.
Some make the argument that drilling
could destabilize the mass even further and
perhaps hasten ice melt.
Makes one wonder if it wouldnt be better to let jolly old Saint Nick make his toys
for the good girls and boys, and find other
natural resources to tap.
Since Santa Claus has his workshop at
the North Pole, with all that in mind, it
leads one to believe Mrs. Claus is either a
saint or in hiding from the FBI. (On a side
note: If no one owns the North Pole, does
that mean Santa and his rosy-cheeked bride
are squatters? Or perhaps they claim imminent domain?)
Although my research didnt necessarily
make me feel better, it did put my mind to
rest, and if the question of who owns the
North Pole comes up again, Im ready.

Refusing to submit to the blood test means an automatic revocation of the drivers license.
In addition to illegal drugs, the overuse and abuse of prescription or over-the-counter medications, especially when
combined with alcohol, often will impair driving ability and
judgment, says the WisDOT.
State law prohibits drivers from being under the influence
of any drug to a degree which renders him or her incapable
of safely driving or under the combined influence of an intoxicant and any other drug to a degree which renders him
or her incapable of driving safely.
Drivers under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or a combination of the two are deadly threats to everyone on the
road, says Logan. Thats why officers never take a break
even during the holiday season from arresting those who
choose to get behind the wheel while impaired.

The story of the game last night was that every time we
got the game within two or three points, Thorp would knock
down a couple three-pointers to get their lead back up to
seven or nine, said Schoelzel.
The Chiefs couldnt get the stops or shots needed to pull
ahead of the game, and they lost 57-48 to the Cardinals.
Schoelzel said the scoring was still balanced, with Hetke,
senior Cortland Spletter and junior Trenton Glaus finishing
in the double digits.
Schoelzel says the team needs to improve after having 17
turnovers and only seven assists.
Our help defense was better last night, but now we need
to recover on the wide open three-point shooters faster, he
said. Thorp had eight three-pointers last night. That is hard
for teams to overcome, even though we had six.
Spletter said free throws were something he thought the
team needs to work on, finishing with four out of 16 as a
team.
We really need to make our free throws though, said
Spletter. That would have made it a whole different game.
We just need to get confidence back into our shots and we
should be right where we want to be.
Cornell will travel for East Lakeland Conference games to

Kendra Seidlitz, 10, Jim Falls, shot her first deer Nov. 23, putting meat in the
freezer for her family. Although it wasnt a monster, it was still a buck, and
came after sitting 10 hours without seeing anything. Kendras mom, Stephanie,
says Kendra stayed positive, and she could tell she was nervous, but excited.
I was proud that she remembered all the rules, said Stephanie, noting
Kendra had made sure she had a clear shot and there was nothing behind the
deer, as well as handled her gun safely. She dressed it, tagged it, helped drag
it, skinned it and even helped process it. Stephanie says hunting has always
been fun, but getting to hunt with her daughter has topped any hunting experience shes had.

some pretty good duck hunts on what is a flowage for a cranberry marsh. It has been probably five years since I paddled a
canoe on it and the last few hunts did not require many shotgun
shells.
Back in the day, when I called hunting camp home for a hundred days each fall, I used to ice skate and cross-country ski
on this flowage while fishing with tip ups.
Today, my paddle was into the wind, my (Selinas) golden
retriever, Fire, did not seem too into the adventure and after
half an hour of pulling a heavy load with my arms, I jumped
out of the canoe and started setting decoys.
I had lent my pair of chest waders I chose to wear today to
a young beaver trapper, and had no idea they were toast until
I felt cold reality as they filled with water.
I did not see a single duck. I did see ample amounts of
muskrat sign and paddled back to my truck. Then, it was off
to camp where I peeled an entire 6-gallon bucket of potatoes
and created a big-time meal for the first night of deer camp.
Wednesday, Nov. 18 High 46, Low 37
Everyone has their own version of deer camp and mine is
an 18x36 foot portable pole barn put on public land each November, then taken down the last day of deer gun season.
I love it here and actually say that to myself when I am at
camp alone. Today, I cooked, drank coffee, then headed to the
woods for a 3/4 mile hike with a bow and arrow, and a tree
stand. In Wisconsins central forest, if you strap on hip boots
and hike in, you have bow hunting all to yourself.
As usual, I was running late on the sun clock, which was actually blocked by clouds. My stand is where I have seen some
beautiful bucks this year, and after hanging it, I climbed down
to get my bow. Something was missing all five of my arrows.
I had traveled through some dense brush and began backtracking. Naturally, my arrows were at the very beginning of
my hike.
Hunting is certainly not always about dropping ducks and
harvesting bucks. I love this place.

There was a widows ball at MCB Bar and Grill with DJ
Kramer.
Turkey BINGO was held at Halfway.
A womans day was enjoyed at Crescent Bar and Grill.
Family and friends gathered at Jim and Linda Dahms for
Thanksgiving dinner and socializing.
Thanksgiving was served at a number of restaurants.
People visited the residents at the Grandview and
Southridge Apartments.
Hope the special people this month were well-remembered
for anniversaries and birthdays.
Many people went black Friday shopping and some people
went on Thanksgiving.
Holcombe Happenings
By Janice Craig 715-595-4380
Several people from the area attended the Green Bay Packer
game Thanksgiving Day. I thought the Packers were going to
pull it out at the end, but no such luck.
The weather changed the plans of many in Holcombe on
Thanksgiving Day. Freezing rain the night before, and along
with snow around 11 a.m., made roads treacherous, so many
decided to stay home and eat out of the freezer.
Norma Severson entertained over a dozen people Saturday.
Oakley and Janice Craig drove to Winona, Minn., Saturday,
to celebrate Thanksgiving. I couldnt help noticing the smoke
in the valleys near Arcadia. With the cold weather, everyone
had stoked their wood burners. It was so good to see our grandchildren, and hear all the plans they have for their futures.
I have been wondering if some early ice fishing is going on
in the back bays.
I havent heard one gun shot in our area, but I am sure some
of the hunters were lucky.
While you are here dont forget to try our new homemade
desserts, and our daily breakfast and dinner specials.
Spring Alixs 4K
Cadott 4K teacher Spring Alix says this year has had an amazing start, and her students have accomplished and learned so much. The class has worked on letters, letter sounds, numbers and writing their
names. They have also worked on various aspects of math, literacy and writing. Students went on two
field trips already, including Niblett's Apple Shed and Klinger's Farm Market. It is amazing to see how
much we have accomplished, said Alix. And we are going to work hard to accomplish even more. We
are very excited to see what the rest of the year is going bring. Go Hornets!

Two guards, senior Cortland Spletter and junior
Noah Nohr, will lead this years Cornell boys basketball team. Spletter brings two years varsity experience
to the court, while Nohr had 15 points and 15 rebounds
per game in the conference last year.
Five juniors, three sophomores and a freshman make
up the remainder of the team, and head coach Shawn
Schoelzel says they have a good combination of height
and speed that should be an asset to their games.
We also return seven players from last years squad
that saw significant playing time, said Schoelzel.
Most started at some point.
Schoelzel says hes watching out for three teams this
year Lake Holcombes good shooters and matchup

freshmen.
Leland says the teams to beat this year are Flambeau and Bruce, who are the cream of the conference, with a lot of returning starters and good
coaches.
This is Lelands second year coaching the Cornell
girls. He played two years of varsity ball in high
school, and says his favorite part of coaching, which
he got into because ball is life, is getting to know
the athletes better.
Our team has a very good work ethic and optimistic attitude,says Leland. We are going to work
on our fundamentals and get better every single
day.

the past seven seasons, Spaeth says he started coaching because Cadott
wrestling helped form him into the person he is. He wrestled four years
for the Hornets, and was a state qualifier three times, including a state
championship in 1997.
Cadott wrestling taught me to be a productive citizen, a hard worker
and a person who believes any task can be conquered, said Spaeth. We
believe all of our student-athletes can develop these attributes.
Assistant coaches Jon Erickson and Shawn Spaeth also wrestled in high
school Erickson a two-time state qualifier and a state runner-up finisher
in 2005, and S. Spaeth a four-time state place winner with a State Championship Team wrestling position.
We enjoy working with all our athletes, said J. Spaeth. We enjoy

for leadership.
The turnout this season had some ups and downs between
the sports, with girls basketball only putting forth a varsity
team, and the wrestling and boys basketball teams missing
varsity level players who chose not to compete this season.
But Sonnentag says there are some new faces and solid
freshmen numbers.
It is really tough to build a program when kids arent following through from middle school to all four years of high
school, says Sonnentag. We need that carryover not only
for the benefit of numbers, but sometimes the kids who
arent necessarily your best athletes can be your best lead-
ers.
As athletic director and wrestling
coach, Sonnentag says he can count on
having upperclassmen who are familiar with expectations.
They are athletes who are groomed
to lead the team, said Sonnentag.
When each level is missing one or
two of those types of kids, it can make Greg Sonnentag
a big impact.
Each athlete is valuable to the team and plays a role in
the success of the program. Hopefully we can keep all the
athletes throughout the season and into next year.
ence.
Two returning letter winners, one All-Conference, for the boys basketball team, and returning juniors and sophomores who are strong and
competitive, will help the team in this seasons competition, says Miller.
For the girls, theres a competitive group of returning seniors who
Miller says will lead the team. We are looking forward to the group
of younger athletes and their abilities to fit in where needed.
Competitive in all contests is the goal for the Chieftains, and Miller
says they are looking forward to seeing improvement as the season proCindy Miller
gresses.
We want to continue to grow and improve skills, she said, improving our win totals
from previous years. In the end, we want to make a strong run in the playoffs and aim for a
conference championship.
