6 Broadcaster Press April 11, 2017 www.broadcasteronline.com ‘South Dakota History’ Features Hawaiian Annexation, Ranching Memoir And Physical Therapy Pioneer PIERRE, S.D.— A maverick South Dakota senator, a family of ranch entrepreneurs and a medical pioneer take center stage in the Spring 2017 issue of “South Dakota History,” the quarterly journal of the South Dakota State Historical Society. Michael J. Mullin looks at the reasons behind opposition to the annexation of Hawaii in “‘I am ready to stake my reputation on my record’: Senator Richard F. Pettigrew’s Failed Crusade to Prevent Hawaiian Annexation, 1893–1898.” Mullin, a professor of history at Augustana University in Sioux Falls, examines the economic issues, Pettigrew’s own fact-finding mission to Hawaii and his increasing conviction that he had to oppose his own Republican Party on the issue, even at the risk of losing his Senate seat. “Boyhood Days on the Glenheim Ranche: The Memoir of Maurice C. Haas,” edited and introduced by William D. Haas, is a firsthand account of how a family of farm and ranch entrepreneurs near Whitewood, S.D., embraced change in order to succeed between 1900 and 1930. Writing in the 1960s, Maurice Haas recalled his family as being among the first in the area to adopt innovations such as Siberian alfalfa, pedigreed livestock, irrigation and mechanized equipment. They also took time for adventure, exploring western South Dakota in their Model T. Editor William D. Haas is a retired engineer and a fourth-generation resident of Lawrence County. This issue also examines how Veblen, S.D., native Nora Staael Evert, a 1929 graduate of what is now Northern State University in Aberdeen, landed in a medical career after first launching out into physical education and dance. David J. Grettler’s “Activity for Body and Mind: The Career of Nora Staael Evert, Physical Therapy Pioneer” examines how Evert’s involvement in the World War II effort to care for wounded soldiers led naturally to providing therapy for polio patients. Grettler teaches early American history at Northern State University. “South Dakota History” is a benefit of membership in the South Dakota State Historical Society.

Supreme Court Decision Prompts GFP Action On Non-Meandered Waters PIERRE, S.D. - In compliance with the recent Supreme Court ruling in Duerre v. Hepler, the South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks (GFP) is closing Department-managed boat launches on non-meandered bodies of water. “Recreational access to non-meandered waters is a complex issue that has impacted our state for decades,” said Kelly Hepler, GFP department secretary. “Under this Supreme Court decision, GFP cannot facilitate access to non-meandered waters for recreational purposes.” According to the Supreme Court, the South Dakota State Legislature must determine whether and how the public may use nonmeandered waters for recreational purposes. GFP cannot facilitate access to these waters until the State Legislature acts. To comply with the Supreme Court ruling, GFP is posting signage and limiting access to infrastructure at the following water bodies, with the potential of additional water bodies to be added: • Caseys Slough, Cottonwood Lake GPA, Dry Lake #1, Dry Lake #2 and Swan Lake in Clark County; NOW TAKING APPLICATIONS!
