New Harmony Theatre continues season with Always…Patsy Cline
New Harmony Theatre continues its 32nd summer season with the musical Always…Patsy Cline by Ted Swindley. The play runs July 12-14 and July 18-21 at Murphy Auditorium in historic New Harmony, Indiana. Always…Patsy Cline is based on a true story about Cline’s friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger. Their friendship shows us that Patsy Cline’s gift to us was greater than her exquisite voice; it was her wonderful heart. The show’s title was inspired by Cline’s letters to Seger, which were consistently signed “Love ALWAYS… Patsy Cline.â€

Leonhardt, Stein named top USI Student Athletes for 2018-19
University of Southern Indiana Athletics announced that senior men’s basketball player Alex Stein (Evansville, Indiana) and junior softball player Jennifer Leonhardt (Louisville, Kentucky) have been named the Old National Bank/USI Male and Female Student Athletes of the Year for 2018-19.
Stein, who became USI’s all-time leading scorer in his final game of his collegiate career, is collecting his second-straight honor after leading the Screaming Eagles to the semifinals of the NCAA Division II Elite Eight this past March.
A first-team All-Great Lakes Valley Conference and All-Midwest Region selection, Stein collected honorable mention All-America honors after averaging 20.9 points per game and setting the school’s single-season scoring record with 732 points.
In the classroom, Stein became the first USI player in program history to earn Academic All-America and GLVC Scholar Athlete of the Year honors this season and capped his career off by being named the GLVC Richard F. Scharf Paragon Award. He graduated in December with a bachelor’s degree in management and minor in sports and business studies.
His efforts this year led the Eagles to a 26-9 overall record and their first NCAA II Midwest Region title since 2004.
Student-athletes under consideration for the ONB/USI Male Student Athlete of the Year award included Stein, Austin Nolan (men’s cross country) and Sean Rickey (men’s soccer).
Leonhardt is earning her first USI Student Athlete of the Year honor after a stellar season that saw her earn GLVC Pitcher of the Year and GLVC Scholar Athlete of the Year accolades.
A second-team All-American on the field in 2019, Leonhardt went 21-9 in the pitcher’s circle with four saves, a 1.29 ERA, 243 strikeouts and a .187 opponent batting average. She tossed to complete-game shutouts in the NCAA II Midwest Region #1 Tournament, bringing her single-season total to a school-record tying 13 as well as her career mark to a school-record tying 33. She also broke the school records for strikeouts (705) and wins (76).
Her efforts on the field helped lead the Eagles to a 35-21 overall record and a 19-7 mark in GLVC play. USI advanced to the NCAA II Midwest Region Tournament for the fifth-straight year and sixth time in seven seasons.
In the class room, Leonhardt earned first-team Academic All-America honors and was named the GLVC Scholar Athlete of the Year. She has accumulated a 3.764 grade point average as a biology major at USI and is a three-time Academic All-GLVC honoree.
Student-athletes under consideration for the ONB/USI Female Student Athlete of the Year award included Leonhardt, Imani Guy (women’s basketball), Claire Johnson (softball) and Madelyne Juenger (women’s soccer).

joe wallace IS IT TRUE JULY 15th
IS IT TRUE that the Vanderburgh County Democrat Party as most people knew it before the debacles of 2010 – 2011 would not recognize the wreckage that the once party of the people has become?…there was a period of time when the Vanderburgh County Democrat Party dominated the leadership positions and elected offices totally?…that all changed with the hubris exhibited in the community meetings leading up to seeing the Ford Center crammed down the taxpayer’s throats without a referendum?…this was of course orchestrated by former Mayor Jonathan Weinzapfel who was measuring the windows in the White House for new curtains based on the words of Larry Aitken who was the voice, money and whip of the Vanderburgh County Democrat Party for many years?…it was this level of hubris and arrogance that inspired the late great Rick Davis to make an announcement that he would be a candidate for Mayor of Evansville in the 2011 election?…that was followed by Floatgate, ChickenGate, and a whole bunch of other buffoonery that culminated in Davis defeating the hand-picked successor to the Democrat Machine grip on the office of mayor?…it has never been the same since?
IS IT TRUE that yesterday the Vanderburgh County Democrat Party took a body blow that may reduce it to rubble when it’s biggest champion Attorney Scott Danks resigned from the leadership role?…Danks spent 3 years as chairperson after a lifetime of supporting Democrat candidates and goals?…Danks gave it his best shot to resurrect the damage done by the Democrat Machine to itself during the exit of Weinzapfel from politics?…we commend Scott for trying and wish him well as he lives his life in the excellent manner that he is known to?…Danks has been a leader in many ways but resurrecting Weinzapfel and the Machine’s folly was more than he wanted to handle and now the Party is left to its own devices?…we understand his replacement has a picture of the Communist candidate for President of the United States in his office and is a big supporter of Senator Sanders and all things that result in higher taxes and more free stuff?…we predict this narrative will not play well in Evansville and that the decline of the Vanderburgh Democrat Party will continue until it eventually hits rock bottom with only a trivial number of seats on the Evansville City Council?
IS IT TRUE that embracing the fringe elements of the national Democrat platform is not likely to appeal to people in the Midwest or South and will ultimately bring about a downfall across the country in places where people still have traditional values?…Bernie, Kamala Harris, Fauxcahontas Elizabeth Warren, and other hard left progressives will be challenged to get any traction in places with common sense?…they may have the heart of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and New York but the rest of the country sees this pack of 24 for what they are and that is going to be bad news for them?…for one of the few times, Evansville seems to be at the leading edge of a national movement back to common sense, traditional values, and rejection of all things far left?
