March for Babies with the March of Dimes May 4

WABASH COUNTY’S MARCH OF DIMES has raised over a quarter of a million dollars in their March for Babies walks since1994. The current local committee is Jane Barlow, Sandy Craft, Dawn Hamm, Tina Carroll, Stacey Bone, Melissa Vaughn, and PatVanlandingham as chairman. This year’s walk will be held May 4. (photo provided)

This year the March of Dimes will cel-ebrate 75 years of improving the healthand lives of babies.The Wabash County annual March for

Babies Walk will be held May 4, atParadise Springs. The walk is approxi-mately four miles. This event is theMarch of Dimes’ biggest fundraisingevent. Throughout the U.S., these walkshave raised $2.6 billion since 1970.The March of Dimes Foundation was

founded in 1938 by President Franklin D.Roosevelt with the goal of fighting polio,which at the time, was the biggest causeof infant death within their first year.Through research funded by the founda-tion, vaccines developed by Jonas Salk,MD and Albert Sabin, MD ended thepolio epidemic in the United States mak-ing the March of Dimes the only organi-zation to cure the disease they set out tofight. These same vaccines are still usedtoday.Over the years, the organization has

shifted its mission depending on needs ofmothers and their babies. Past accom-plishments include newborn screenings,newborn intensive care units, surfactanttherapy (helps preemies’ lungs expand),educating mothers about the benefits offolic acids (helps prevent against neuraltube defects) and today’s mission of pre-venting premature births.In Indiana, 11.6 percent (approximate-

ly 1 in 8) babies are born premature.That’s two percent higher than the goal.Worldwide, 15 million babies are borntoo soon each year, and approximatelyone million die of premature relatedproblems. The March of Dimes currentgoal is to lower the United State’s pre-emie rate to 9.6 percent by 2020.“They’re very proactive. They’re try-

ing to prevent problems. They always setgoals and try to reach it,” said PatVanlandingham, Wabash County Walkfor Babies chairman.According to the Center of Disease

Control and Prevention, more babies diefrom preterm related problems than any-thing else. A baby is considered prema-ture if they are born three weeks beforetheir due date, or anytime before 37weeks.The March of Dimes website states,

“About half of premature births resultfrom spontaneous preterm labor, thecauses of which are unknown.”Although there are still a lot of unan-swered questions, they do know that pre-mature birth can lead to a lot of healthproblems throughout life, and somewomen are more at risk to go intopreterm labor than others. Teenage preg-nancies and smoking during pregnancyare two of the most obvious reasons.”“We work to educate mothers on how

to have a healthy pregnancy,” saidVanlandingham. “Here in WabashCounty, agencies can apply for a grantfrom the March of Dimes, but we haven’thad a lot of agencies take advantage ofthat,” she said. A few years ago, SmokeFree Wabash applied and received agrant for literature to give pregnantwomen to help them learn about notsmoking during pregnancy and the dan-gers of that.To receive a grant, agencies must have

by Emily ArmentroutOn April 26, with their prom

approaching, Wabash High Schoolteamed up with the local fire and policedepartment, along with the Samaritanhelicopter from Parkview Fort Wayne,to depict a crash scene for the juniorsand seniors at Wabash High School.The accident was supposed to be causedby drinking and driving on prom night.

“It’s going to make a great impres-sion on the kids. We’ve had parentscome to watch and it has really impact-ed them,” said Carl Hall, an inspectorfor the Wabash Fire Department.Hall was the narrator for this event.

He explained what was happening tothe students while the teams wereworking on their fellow classmates. The students participating were

Cassie Boone, Cooper Bostwick, LoganMcDonald, and Chloe Mullet. Thoughthis was a drill, the responding teamsran this scenario as realistically asthey could, so the students would get areal look at how an accident scenewould play out. “It’s good training for the fire and

police department. They are run-ning this as a real accident,” Halltold The Paper of Wabash.The scenario portrayed that

Bostwick had been drinking anddriving, and Boone was in hiscar with him. Bostwick sus-tained a head injury that wastreated in the field, and thenwas given a field sobriety test,which he failed. He was hand-cuffed and placed into a policecar. Boone also sustained a headinjury along with an amputatedhand. She was removed from

the car after they used the jaws of life toremove the passenger side door. It wasportrayed that she was taken to thehospital in an ambulance.

Logan McDonald and ChloeMullett were in the sec-

ond vehicle.Their

car was laying on its roof, with themboth half out of the vehicle. Mullet hada head wound, and several large lacera-tions on one of her arms. After she wasremoved from the vehicle, she wasplaced into the Samaritan helicopter,and would have been headed to FortWayne, had this been a real accident. Hall explained that one of the last

NEED GRADUATION INVITATIONS?

WEST LAFAYETTE-While poison hemlockisn’t likely to be asprominent a problemthis year as it was inlast year’s drought-stressed pastures,Purdue Extension spe-cialists still encouragelivestock producers tobe on the lookout forthe toxic plant.

Poison hemlock isoften found along road-sides, edges of cultivat-ed fields, stream banksand pasture fencerows.Its most defining char-acteristics are purplespots or blotches onthe plant’s hairless,ridged stems. If eaten,all parts of the plantcan be fatally toxic tocattle, horses, swine,sheep and goats.

“If there is adequatepasture growth, poisonhemlock isn’t as big adeal because animalstypically won’t eat itunless it’s all theyhave, but livestock pro-ducers still need to beon the lookout for itand think about how tocontrol it,” said RonLemenager, PurdueExtension beef spe-cialist. “They alsoneed to be especiallycautious when makinghay.”

Control methods aremost effective when

applied at an earlyplant growth stage,said Travis Legleiter,Purdue Extensionweed scientist.

“Farmers need tolook for it before it’sbolted, or flowered,when it’s low-grow-ing,” he said.

Poison hemlock hasa two-year life cycle,and herbicides workbest when appliedearly in the first yearof growth, when plantsare newly emerged.

The most commonherbicides used to con-trol the weed in pas-tures are growth regu-lators, such as 2,4-D,dicamba or a combina-tion of 2,4-D andtryclopyr, said BillJohnson, PurdueExtension weed scien-tist.

“What producershave to remember isthat most pastures aremixes of grasses andlegumes and these pes-ticides will damage

legumes,” he said.“Most of the time wehave to sacrifice thelegumes to control thepoison hemlock, thencome back and reseedthe legumes.”

Animals that ingestpoison hemlock willstart to show symp-toms within an hour.Symptoms start withnervousness and canprogress to respiratoryparalysis within two tothree hours. If preg-nant animals consumethe plant between days55-75 of gestation itcould result in birthdefects.

Treatment is avail-able for poisoned ani-mals, but requires aveterinarian and thatthe animal be treatedimmediately.

Poison hemlock alsocan be found in agro-nomic crop fields but ismore of a nuisancethan anything,Johnson said.

“Poison hemlock

invades no-till cornand soybean fields,” hesaid. “Herbicides thathave activity on thisweed and that can beused before plantingsoybeans are 2,4-D,dicamba andglyphosate. Dicambaand glyphosate haveshown slightly betterefficacy than 2,4-D. Thebest overall control inan early spring burn-down would likely beattained with a mix-ture of glyphosate anddicamba.”

tuition upon returninghome, increasing theircollege costs by thou-sands of dollars.“With this legisla-

tion, Indiana has anopportunity to makesignificant strides inhelping veterans earntheir college degrees,”Banks said. “A recentIndiana Universitystudy showed that 18percent of Hoosier vet-erans have at least abachelor’s degree,which is below thenational average of 26percent. Expanding in-state tuition eligibilitycould help bridge thatgap by easing veter-ans’ financial burdenand improving theiraccess to higher educa-tion.” To be eligible, veter-

March for Babies... continued from front pagea mission that com-plies with the Marchof Dimes, and theyhave to clearly stateexactly how themoney will be used.“An easy way to

remember how toMarch of Dimes usestheir money is theword CARE(Community, advo-cate, research, edu-cate),” saidVanlandingham “Wework in communitiesto promote awareness.Advocate for mothersand babies. Fundresearch and educatemothers on how tohave healthy pregnan-cies and babies,” shesaid.In 2011, the founda-

tion invested $31 mil-lion in research thatstudies prematurebirth, birth defects

and infant mortality,and for the fourth con-secutive year, prema-ture birth ratesdropped.The foundation is

carefully watchingpending legislationthat would providemore governmentresources for prema-turity research.According to theMarch of Dimes web-site, the PREEMIEReauthorization Act,if enacted, “wouldauthorize enhancedresearch, educationand interventionactivities aimed atimproving pregnancyoutcomes.”In Wabash County, a

quarter of a milliondollars has beenraised since 1994.“Wabash County

has always been really

supportive in ourwalks over the years.There were someyears where we raisedover $20,000, but as theeconomy fell off andother problems came,that’s gone down,”said Vanlandingham.Along with the

March for BabiesWalk, this year, theWabash County teamalso hosted aZumbathon April 26 atthe YMCA. Fourinstructors donatedtheir time and localartists and businessesdonated prizes to beraffled off. The com-mittee also put togeth-er a Pamper YourselfPackage worth over$190 to be raffled atthe end of the event.Another event, May

8, is the Wonder Walk,for Sharp Creek and

Metro North students.The children will tryto raise money, and ifthey get $25, they willreceive a t-shirt. Afterschool they will go ona mini walk. If theywalk around threetimes, they will collectthree items in a good-ie bag.“This is our first

year for the WonderWalk, so we are reallyexcited about that,”said Vanlandingham.The annual March

for Babies Walk willbegin at 9 a.m. May 4.Registration starts at8 a.m. There will bebreakfast before thewalk, and there willbe more food after aswell as prizes andawards.Vanlandingham is

“It costs about $25per walker, so wewould like each walk-er to raise at least thatmuch, but we won’tturn a walker awayfor not having it,” saidVanlandingham, whohas been walkingsince the early 1990sand been the chair-man since the late1990s.“I worked at

Wabash Alloys foryears, and one of thegals saw an article inthe paper that had apicture of the walk.She said it looks likesomething fun that wecould do together as ateam,” saidVanlandingham. Wegot together that year,and I was hooked,”she said. “The longeryou do it, the morepremature babies youmeet, and you get evenmore hooked. Everysingle one of themthat I’ve met, they’rereally outgoing. Theyjust have a spiritabout them that’shard to describe, butI’m sure it has some-thing to do with theirstruggle. They’reamazing kids.”

Wabash High School... continued from front pagethings they do whenworking accidents isalso the saddest. Inthis part of the sce-nario, Hall explainedwhy McDonald hadreceived no attentionup until this point.McDonald was por-traying a teen thatdied at the scene ofthe accident. To givethe true effect,McDonald was leftlaying on the grounduntil the other stu-dents had been tendedto. Once the other stu-dents were on theirway, the teams tendedto McDonald. Theyplaced McDonald intoa body bag andwheeled him to a sec-ond ambulance. After the participat-

ing students weretaken away, the rest ofthe student body wentback to the school totake part in a convo-cation where theytalked about the con-sequences of drink-ing and driving andtexting and driving. This is the fourth

time that these teamshave portrayed adrunk driving acci-dent before prom forhigh school students. “Kenny Combs at

North Side Wreckergives us these cars forfree to use,” said Hall.Cindy McDonald, aflight nurse with theSamaritan helicopter,added that every partof the demonstrationis free to the school.With prom sched-

ules differing somuch, it isn’t alwayseasy to schedule atime that works wellfor all the schools, sothis year, WabashHigh School was the

only school in atten-dance. “The ultimate

goal is to have at leastall three county

schools attend,”added Hall.

The newWelcome Center andGift Shop totals 2,500square feet of retailand meeting space. Inthe 1880s the buildingwas once owned byLinley A. Dawes andoperated as the L.

where privately-ownedhorses could be board-ed for a short time. The renovated down-

town storefront show-cases some of thebuilding’s historicarchitectural featureswhich include twointerior archwaysmeasuring 7’ X 8’ thatconnected the liveryoffice to the stable, anexposed brick wall andoriginal hardwoodfloors.

the general contractorwho executed the proj-ect and partnered with

Angie Delauter as thelead interior designer.The property is ownedby Michael and AngieBeauchamp of Confluxand Confluence, Inc.both worked closelywith New, Delauterand Flohr to see theproject through untilcompletion. “The Board’s goal

was to invest in aWelcome Center thatcomplimented thequality businesses andattractions that arefound throughoutWabash County,” stat-ed Beth Driscoll, boardpresident for the CVB.“For some guests, thewelcome center servesas their first experi-ence in our communi-ty and we want thatimpression to be a pos-itive and lasting one.The reaction we seefrom first time visitors(to the WelcomeCenter) is of utteramazement. The entireCVB board and staffare grateful to Michaeland Angie(Beauchamp) for theirsupport and vision.”

Investigation bySecretary of StateConnie Lawson’soffice led to the con-viction

INDIANAPOLIS—On April 26, BradleyCollins, Fort Waynewas ordered to repayinvestors $2.2 mil-lion after pleadingguilty to selling

unregistered invest-ments in a Ponzischeme. Chargeswere filed againstCollins after aninvestigation bySecretary of StateConnie Lawson’sP r o s e c u t i o nAssistance Unituncovered he usedhis shared Christianbeliefs to swindleHoosiers out of an

Fort Wayne man ordered to repay $2.2 millionto investors defrauded in a Ponzi scheme

excess of $30 million. “Collins worked

under the guise of areligious man andtold his victims heonly worked withGod-fearing, churchgoing people and wasblessed to be bless-ing potentialinvestors,” saidSecretary of StateConnie Lawson. “Hisportrayal of aChristian man putmany of his victimsat ease, increasingthe amount of fundsthey invested. “Today’s sentenc-

ing sends yet anoth-er message thatIndiana is not a placefor white collarcrime such as affini-ty fraud. I commendlocal law enforce-ment officials, theoffice of AllenCounty ProsecutorKaren Richards andour SecuritiesDivision for theirhard work in protect-ing Hoosiers fromscam artist such asMr. Collins.”To date, 129 vic-

tims have been iden-tified with 59 resid-ing in Allen County.Almost all of Collinsvictims report he

claimed to be a goodChristian man andpreyed on their reli-gious beliefs. Insome cases, he evendressed as a pastor todraw victims intothe scam. Collins was sen-

tenced to eight years.He will serve two atAllen CountyC o m m u n i t yCorrections WorkRelease. If success-fully completed, hewill serve theremaining six yearsof his term on proba-tion. Per the Plea

Agreement, Mr.Collins agreed toplead guilty to thesale of unregisteredsecurities. Also aspart of the PleaAgreement, Mr.Collins has agreed totestify in a federalcriminal actioninvolving an allegedconspirator in thestate of Michigan.Steve Hash investi-

gated this case onbehalf of theIndiana Secretary ofState’s office andworked with AllenCounty DeputyProsecutor TimMcCaully.

Muskiesshowing upin MaumeeRiverDNR officials are

getting reports fromanglers that muskiesare occasionallybeing caught in theMaumee River belowthe Hosey Dam inFort Wayne.The largest to date

was caught in earlyApril, measured 42.5inches long andweighed 28 pounds.Biologists are

unsure where themuskies are comingfrom—none arestocked directly intothe river.Muskies have been

stocked in AllenCounty’s Lake Everetteach year since 2010,but its outlet drains tothe Eel River, not theMaumee. Likewise, acheck with Ohio DNRbiologists confirmedthat no muskies arestocked in theMaumee watershedwithin the Buckeyestate.Right now, the best

guess is they camedownstream via theSt. Joe River fromBall Lake in SteubenCounty. Muskies werestocked there annual-ly until 2009.

the ball real well upand down the line up(each starter had atleast one hit) and thedefense was solidexcept for one badthrow in the sixth. I

was hoping we couldwrap it up at 11-0 butsometimes when youstart subbing like wedid the chemistrygoes away and you getcomplacent. GiveMaconaquah creditthough as they are adecent ball club andkept chipping awaylate. Fortunately,Ryan came in andslammed the doorshut in the seventh,”said Coach Uggen.

Dear Editor,It is 10 a.m. on April

29, and the courierjust picked up ourStellar Application tobe delivered toIndianapolis latertoday. My firstreaction is, “Nowwhat do I do?”There is an

overwhelming senseof accomplishmentjust because of theprocess. This hasbeen a communitydevelopment projectgreater than any inwhich I everparticipated. It beganthree years ago withthe “Do it Downtown”campaign and WabashMarketplace, Inc.’sattempts to bring thenew hospital intodowntown. Shortlyafterward we shiftedgears in an attempt tolocate Wellbrooke ofWabash in the same

area and then focusedupon Ivy Tech. Hundreds of people

participated in theproject from thebeginning. We stillhave a way to go, asour site visit will beon May 8. Weanticipate that asmany as 50 volunteerswill join us as we seekto make a solidimpression. There are so many

to thank for theirefforts that it isimpossible to nameeveryone. But not onesingle person onceasked ever declined.They participated ininterviews andb r a i n s t o r m i n gsessions, focus groupsand public meetings,t e l e p h o n econversations andsurveys, electronicconversations of allkinds.
