MEET COUNTY COMMISSIONER CHERYL MUSGRAVEÂ
We have been observing Vanderburgh County Commissioner Cheryl Musgrave for a long time and must admit that she is a hard-working and dedicated public servant.
Cheryl is known to be somewhat headstrong and sometimes becomes a little opinionated.  She has a reputation for doing her homework and enjoys a spirited public debate on the facts. From time to time Commissioner Musgrave takes on the political establishment without wavering. We especially like the way she fought for public access to closed-door meetings which forced greater accountability.  Although she is very conservative she has the ability to embrace financially progressive ideas.
Finally, we are pleased with the way our current Vanderburgh County Commissioners are working in harmony for the betterment of the citizens of Vanderburgh County.

Yesteryear: D-Patrick Has Deep Roots To The Evansville Business CommunityÂ
D-Patrick has deep roots to the Evansville business community.Â
Way back to 1934, when Joseph E. O’Daniel partnered with George Ranes Sr. to form O’Daniel-Ranes Oldsmobile in downtown Evansville, Indiana. With the expansion in mind, the O’Daniel family grew its business within Evansville, and to other cities such as Omaha, NE, Louisville, KY, Bloomington, IN, and Fort Wayne, IN. Â Dealerships in both Fort Wayne and Omaha are still owned and operated by members of the O’Daniel family.
In 1964, Joe O’Daniel’s son, D. Patrick O’Daniel, joined the family business at the Key Ford dealership in downtown Evansville. He began his career as the company’s Chief Accountant and was later promoted to General Manager of the Ford Dealership, before purchasing his own dealership in 1971.
The new company, called D-Patrick, Inc., sold and serviced Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz vehicles on Green River Road on Evansville’s east side. D. Patrick later purchased Key Ford Honda, moving it to Green River Road before adding BMW, Porsche, and Audi to the Green River Road location. D-Patrick eventually purchased O’Daniel-Ranes Oldsmobile Nissan. The Nissan dealership was moved to the Green River Road location. General Motors later discontinued the Oldsmobile brand.
In 1987, D. Patrick’s son, Mike O’Daniel, joined D-Patrick. Two years later, D. Patrick’s son-in-law, Ray Farabaugh, joined D-Patrick. In 1998, after completing the NADA dealer candidate program and filling multiple management roles within the dealership, Mike O’Daniel and Ray Farabaugh purchased D-Patrick, Inc.
D-Patrick has since added the Lincoln franchise to the downtown Ford dealership and moved the Honda dealership to the Division Street Auto Plaza. The Ford dealership in Boonville was also purchased as well as the expansion of the D-Patrick Body Shop and Glass business to be one of the largest in the Evansville Area. In 2014 D-Patrick Nissan moved from its’ Green River Road home of 20 years to a brand new completely green-built facility with over 400 vehicles and 16 state of the art service bays.
D-Patrick, Inc. employs the finest dealership staff, offers the best service and sales experience, maintains the greatest selection of new and used vehicles and offers the best deals in the tri-state area. The D-Patrick service, body and glass shops offer the highest quality repairs available anywhere.
Mike O’Daniel said “We provide our factory-trained master technicians with the latest technology and diagnostic equipment to ensure your vehicle is completed in a timely manner and repaired correctly…the first time”.

Lincoln Beachey Flying Machine
Lincoln Beachey Flying MachineÂ
by Pat Sides
The man seated in the “flying machine†is Lincoln Beachey, the pioneer aviator who visited Evansville in 1912. The occasion was the second annual aviation show held at the Tri-State Fairgrounds (which was later developed into Akin Park).
Beachey is pictured (left background) as he is being sworn in on June 6 as a mail carrier for the United States Post Office, which afforded local residents the opportunity to have mail delivered by air for the first time.Â
Although not visible in this picture, the fairground had a huge grandstand capable of seating the thousands of spectators who witnessed the death-defying aerial stunts that had transformed Beachey into an international sensation.
USI claims 83-60 victory over Trevecca Nazarene
The University of Southern Indiana women’s basketball team closed their part of the 2019 Bellarmine Thanksgiving Classic with a wire-to-wire victory over Trevecca Nazarene University, 83-60, Saturday afternoon at Knights Hall.
The Screaming Eagles (4-1) took the lead just 12 seconds into the contest with an elbow-jumper from senior guard Ashley Johnson and never saw a tied score or lead change for the remainder of the 40-minute affair.
Johnson and sophomore forward Ashlynn Brown each posted the game-high of 15 points, combining for a 61 percent shooting clip and 10 rebounds. Brown’s six boards tied junior guard Emma DeHart and senior guard Kiara Moses for the game-high in that category.
The Eagles opened the game on a 9-2 run fueled by seven of DeHart’s 12 points, sparking the USI offense to a 20-7 first-quarter tally. Freshmen forward Tara Robbe and guard Addy Blackwell came off the bench for a combined seven points in the opener.
The Trojans (3-5) found their way back to just a three-point deficit just-after the second-quarter media break, outscoring USI 18-8 over a seven-minute stretch of the second frame. The Eagles bounced back with a 12-4 run capped-off by a Blackwell three-pointer that gave her the team-lead in scoring at the break.
A three-pointer from senior guard/forward Morgan Sherwood halfway through the third quarter marked the final time Trevecca would be within single-digits in the game. The Eagles finally pushed their lead to 20 points just before the fourth-quarter media break on a Brown free throw.
Notes
Blackwell posted a new season-high in her freshman campaign with 12 points Saturday, her second time scoring in double-digits this season.
Johnson’s 15-point effort marks her third-straight double-digit performance, and fourth in five games thus far. Brown’s 15 points came one shy of tying the career-high mark she set in the road loss at Ferris State University last weekend. DeHart has also posted double-digit efforts in four-of-five this season with 12 points on Saturday.
USI out-shot the Trojans from the field (50.8 percent to 34.4 percent), out-scored them in the paint (32-28) and off the bench (31-21), all while leading all but the first 12 seconds of the contest.
