CHILTON WITH NEWS FROM STOCKBRIDGE

VFW AND AUXILIARY

Buddy Poppies distributed Friday


Members of Veterans of Foreign
Wars Post 3153 and its Auxiliary will
be distributing Buddy Poppies on Fri-
day, Oct. 7.
The poppies will be available at
Walmart, Kwik Trip, various banks
and other businesses located in Chil-
ton and at Blattner’s Piggly Wiggly in
New Holstein.
Everyone is encouraged to stop,
donate and get a Buddy Poppy to help
honor the memory of those who have
made the ultimate sacrifice.
“What better way to help our vet-
erans in the community than by dis-
tributing this little flower of remem-
brance?”
In 1953, President Dwight D. Eisen-
hower signed legislation officially
naming Nov. 11 as Veterans Day, a
day set aside to reflect and remem-
ber those who sacrificed their lives
for the freedoms and values enjoyed
today. It is a day which recognizes
those military veterans who guarded
and protected those freedoms and
values, a day on which the hope and
faith of millions around the world are
sustained by the continued service
rendered by millions of veterans liv-
ing today.
“Please support our veterans by Chilton Mayor Tom Reinl helps kick off the Buddy Poppy effort with Auxiliary President Kathy Ott and Buddy Poppy Chairperson

It’s been a short, but memorable

a series filled with tons of offense.
The two squads didn’t disappoint
last week either.
With what may be a Kiel record
for combined total points in a game
(98), the Raiders used a strong first
half to forge a big lead and then held
off hard-charging KLC for a 56-42

This was the third meeting between
the two programs since KLC joined

49-7 win means happy Homecoming for NH


BY MARK SHERRY
New Holstein High School’s foot-
ball team did not let Homecoming
Week distract them, nor did it let
Manitowoc Roncalli think it had any
chance to pick up its first Eastern
Wisconsin Conference win on Friday
night.
Scoring on its first five possessions
of the first half, the Huskies built a
35-0 halftime lead and cruised to a
49-7 win against the Jets.
“We just did our job,” Husky coach
Matt Rupp said. “Build the wall—our
focus was to stop (Brayden) Reimer.
I think we executed the plan on both
sides of the ball.”
The three-headed offensive mon-
ster for the Huskies was comprised of
Luke Graf, Brice Haendel and Mason
Buteyn. Graf rushed for a game-
high 135 yards on just eight carries
and scored four touchdowns. Buteyn
gained 115 yards on 12 carries—all in
the first half—and had a touchdown.
Haendel had a solid 70 yards on 10
carries and scored a rushing touch-
down and one on an 18-yard inter-
ception return in the third quarter.
The Jets tried an onside kick to start
the game but it failed, giving New
Holstein the ball on the Jet 45-yard
line. A 24-yard run by Buteyn set
up Graf’s 8-yard TD run, and the Marcus Franzen (25) used the big protective club on his right hand to help bring down Roncalli’s quarterback in Friday’s game.
