Estherville Daily News from Estherville, Iowa • Page 3

AS THE WORLD YAWNS Estherville (la.) Daily News, NOV. 14, 1975 3 By STAFF WRITERS GOLDEN SUN FEEDS, INC. is using local talent in three advertisements that are currently running in area farm magazines. Harlan Kolsrud, who has since left Golden Sun to go into the farming business, was primarily responsible for the development of the ads. The ads are trying to stay with local situations and local persons to show that the sunshine can be brought out to help you.

John Friesner of Estherville is featured as the friendly Golden Sun dealer in each of the three advertisements. In one he uses a Golden Sun feed truck to pull Keith Nelson, rural Sherburn, out of a mudhole on his farm. The ad states, "Bringing your feed in or helping you Sunshine Guy is there when you need him." In another ad Friesner visits Wayne Crim of Estherville on his farm during baling season and offers him a cool drink of water. "Plenty of time to talk business after you quench that thirst," says the ad. In a third ad Friesner is umpiring a little league game.

Scot'. Beauman, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lee Beauman and Randy Knox, son of Mr. and Mrs.

Robert Knox, all of Estherville portray the little leaguers. The ad states "To think a half hour ago this Sunshine Guy brought you a load of feed. Now your Golden Sun dealer's calling them the way he sees 'em at the little league playoff game. Depending which team you're pulling for, the sunshine guy can be a saint or a bum. But when he teams up with you to work out the most profitable feeding programs for your livestock, there's no questioning his decision on the choice of Golden Sun quality products." The ads are currently running in Successful Farming, Wallaces Farmer, Nebraska Farmer, the Dakota Farmer, the Beef Magazine and the National Hog Farmer.

ESTHERVILLE CITY Councilmen found that at least one of Estherville's young persons is concerned with city problems and issues. Susan Donovan, a fifth grader at Estherville Middle School and daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Lawrence Donovan, attended the Nov. 10 special meeting of the board along with her father, Councilman Donovan.

During the course of the discussion about Richland Foods, Inc. and its request to use the city right-of-way to build a truck ramp, Susan had a few questions of her own that she threw at the Councilmen. Few area residents take the time to attend City Council meetings and still fewer care to ask questions or voice comments once they get there. Susan's questions prompted Councilmen to comment that school children are showing more interest in city affairs than are adult residents of the city. VIRGIL FRYE, AN ACTOR who grew up in Estherville and attended Estherville schools, will be on the cast of ABC's 'The Six Million Dollar Man' Sunday, Nov.

16, according to. Gary Rains, advisor for the Estherville High School Film Club. The show airs at 7 p.m. on local ABC stations. Frye recently completed filming on a new movie 'Missouri Breaks' which stars Marlon Brando.

He has also appeared in a number of other movies. Frye's son, Sean, is currently appearing in a number of commercials which are airing across the country. He has made commercials for Crest toothpaste, and candies, and Swift turkeys. THE TAXPAYER HAS A RIGHT to know what is going to be discussed at meetings of public bodies at their regular and special meetings. He or she is paying the bill for those bodies to operate on and decisions made by that body often affect the taxpayer directly.

Most public bodies in Emmet County currently work off an agenda, which is sent to the news media in advance in order to give the concerned citizen an opportunity to voice his opinion before a decision is made. The Daily News currently receives such agendas from the Estherville City Council, Iowa Lakes Community College, Estherville Board of Education, Estherville Board of Adjustment, Estherville Planning and Zoning Commission and Emmet County Council of Governments. But the Emmet County Board of Supervisors refuses to adopt the agenda plan to inform the public in advance. We realize that several items discussed by the Supervisors each week are not planned but arise when some person walks into the meeting with a problem or request. But some items are known about in advance and these should be made public prior to the meeting.

Several items being discussed weekly by the Supervisors are known in advance, such as drainage ditches, road construction, embargos, salaries, changing of road signs, office facilities, bridge construction, equipment purchases, etc. Placing these items on an agenda would not eliminate a person coming before the board to present a personal request. Most public bodies currently have some items not on an agenda brought up at regular meetings. And the agenda would also give a Supervisor time to study the situation in advance and maybe talk with individuals which it concerns prior to making his decision or having to table the item until a later meeting. Currently Jim Peterson, rural Estherville, is the only Supervisor favoring the agenda, having made a motion to start one twice.

Both motions died for the lack of a second. Persons desiring to see an agenda should contact or write the Supervisors, letting their wishes be known. THREE MEMBERS of the ABC-TV crew covering the Minnesota-Northwestern football game last Saturday was seen at the Minneapolis airport.

Photo by Connie Davis Discuss Small Business Problems ESTHERVILLE Specific problems of small businessmen were discussed by the Iowa Lakes Service Corps of Retired Executives (SCORE) when it met Thursday morning at the Golden Sun Feeds, Inc. corporate offices along Iowa Highway 4 south of Estherville.

Ken Kraay, Des Moines, a representative of the Small Business Administration (SBA) was on hand to answer questions and give hints for counseling businesses. The chapter was formed and officers were elected during an Oct. 23 meeting of the chapter. Rollin Edelen of Estherville was named first vice-chairperson; and Harold H. Howe of Spencer was named chairperson.

SCORE MEMBERS have gained expertise in business through actual experience in the business operations. They offer their services, without pay, to help small businessmen with operating problems. The program is sponsored by the SBA. Small businesses in need of help to run the business more profitably and better may request assistance from SCORE by contacting the Des Moines SBA office. The SBA will put the SCORE chapter or counselor in touch with the applicant, helping match the expert to the need.

The SCORE counselor visits the small businessman and through a careful observation he can make a detailed analysis of the business and its problems. If it is a complex problem he may call on other SCORE experts to assist. Finally, he will offer a plan to remedy the problem and help the businessman through the critical period of operation. THE SBA POINTS out that a businessman doesn't have to be 'in trouble' to get help from SCORE. Those who think their businesses could be doing better, a record-keeping system is outdated and those who feel they may not be getting the most for their advertising dollar may also ask for SCORE recom- fieri Terril Grades Pictures Displayed ay6 "The President has been going out to his camp every weekend, and it hasent been all for pleasure, either.

Every weekend he takes a different gang with him.

Now we got to get together and help 'em try and make it up some way. How about lopping part of your Army off? Can't you leave some spurs and some Sam Brown belts off, and help save? Take some oats from those Army mules, or something. I know we got to be prepared, but see if we can't be prepared a little cheaper.
