Verona native writes book after discovering historical mystery
KIMBERLY WETHAL
Press correspondent
For years, Verona native Carolyn
Porter has been infatuated with love
letters written by a man she never
met.
Porter, a graphic designer, had been
perusing an antique shop in Stillwa-
ter, Minn., for source material for her
passion project designing a font the story is a search
when she found letters written with
gorgeous handwriting, in a language
she couldnt read.
Once translated, it uncovered the
story of a French man living in a labor
camp during World War II, writing to
his wife and daughters.
Porter has brought that story to life
in her book, Marcels Letters: A Font
and The Search For One Mans Fate,
published in June 2017.
The book weaves together two true
stories, Porter told the Press: one of
her desire to complete her passion
project, which took
12 years to design; the
other, to ensure a man
named Marcel Huez
was not forgotten by
history.

The Verona Area School District is
hoping to get parents involved in the
personalized learning rollout this fall
with a new advisory council.
The council has not yet been estab-
lished, and district officials are still
in the early stages of deciding how
members will be selected, though
they expect to have a parent or staff
member from each school including
the charters in the group.
The goal of personalized learning
is to give each student voice and
choice in how they learn, which
supporters have said will allow

Letters to the editor policy

Unified Newspaper Group is proud to offer a venue for public
debate and welcomes letters to the editor, provided they comply with
our guidelines.
Letters should be no longer than 400 words. They should also con-
tain contact information the writers full name, address, and phone
number so that the paper may confirm authorship. Unsigned or
anonymous letters will not be printed under any circumstances.
The editorial staff of Unified Newspaper Group reserves the right
to edit letters for length, clarity and appropriateness. Letters with
libelous or obscene content will not be printed.
Unified Newspaper Group generally only accepts letters from writ-
ers with ties to our circulation area.
Letters to the editor should be of general public interest. Letters
that are strictly personal lost pets, for example will not be print-
ed. Letters that recount personal experiences, good or bad, with indi-
vidual businesses will not be printed unless there is an overwhelm-
ing and compelling public interest to do so. Letters that urge readers
to patronize specific businesses or specific religious faiths will not
be printed, either. Thank-you letters can be printed under limited
circumstances, provided they do not contain material that should
instead be placed as an advertisement and reflect public, rather than
promotional interests.
Unified Newspaper Group encourages lively public debate on
issues, but it reserves the right to limit the number of exchanges
between individual letter writers to ensure all writers have a chance
to have their voices heard.

This policy will be printed from time to time in an abbreviated form

here and will be posted in its entirety on our websites.

Verona opens Big 8 with sweep Cats look for

leadership down
ANTHONY IOZZO
Assistant sports editor

The Verona Area High School

volleyball team was tested Tuesday
despite sweeping Janesville Parker
3-0 (25-20, 25-18, 25-18) at home.
The Vikings continued to make
runs with a strong block, and it
forced the Wildcats to adjust its
offensive attack.
Sophomore setter Jordan Arm-
strong had eight assists, and she and
junior setter Emma Frahm continued
to have to change their placement.
It forced our setters to move
the ball around and filled our hit-
ters with confidence, coach Kelly
Annen said.
Senior right-side hitter Priya She-
noi had four of her nine kills in the
first set, but she was also a part of
several points throughout the match,
forcing errors with strong hits over
the net for Verona (6-4 overall, 1-0
Big Eight).
Priya had a great game, Annen
said. That really helps us establish
an offensive threat by having all
three hitters at the front row be able
to put the ball away and to come up
with different options if something
is not working.
Shenoi also had a couple of
blocks, but it was sophomore middle
blocker Maddy Kelley that stole the
show in the middle. Kelley finished
with six blocks.
Sophomore libero Amelia Hust
helped with serves and serves
received, finishing with 16 digs and

two aces.
We see the impact of when we
are able to serve aggressively and
hold the ball, Annen said. That is
a direct correlation to our success on
the court, same with our passing and
serves received.
Verona only trailed once in the
match, falling behind 4-0 at the start
of the third set, but the Wildcats ral-
lied to eventually take a 17-14 lead
and force a Parker timeout.
The biggest lead of the night came
in the first set, when Verona was up
23-12.
Janesville Parker scored seven
straight points to cut the deficit to
23-19, but the Wildcats were able to
close out the set.
The sweep did allow Verona to
play a fourth exhibition set and get
more players playing time on the
court, which is something Annen
said is very important.
You can see that the level of
our practices are intense based on
the level of athleticism out there,
Annen said. No spot is guaranteed, Senior captain and defensive specialist Katie Karnosky receives a serve
and everybody is pushing each other in the second set Tuesday against Janesville Parker at Verona Area High
throughout the season.
the stretch
ANTHONY IOZZO
Assistant sports editor
Seniors Lauren and
Courtney Shorter have been
with the Verona Area High
School girls golf program
since they were freshmen,
and they have been two of
the more consistent golfers
this season.
But with the postseason
quickly approaching, Coach
Jon Rebholz said that lead-
ership will be even more
important than getting low-
er scores.
It is going to become
more important once we get
closer to the playoffs, not
just scoring-wise but lead-
ership-wise how they can
take the team under their
wings and elevate things
once we hit the playoffs,
he said.
Senior Claire Swain and
sophomore Caitlyn Ott are
slated to be the No. 3 and
No. 4 golfers for the rest of
the season, and senior Alex-
is Gaillard has an edge for
the No. 5 spot.

Passing game erupts as Verona remains undefeated

ANTHONY IOZZO
Assistant sports editor
A strong rushing attack
has been a key to the Vero-
na Area High School foot-
ball teams success ever
since coach Dave Rich-
ardson took over as head
coach in 2000.
B u t T h u r s d a y s 3 5 - 6
win over Madison Memo-
rial at Mansfield Stadium
was all about the passing
attack, as senior quarter-
back Aaron Young threw
three touchdown passes
and senior split end Car-
son Bull caught two touch-
d ow n s a n d t o p p e d 1 0 0
receiving yards.
Verona has outscored
its first three opponents
86-14, and Bull said mix-
ing up the offense opens
up the game to allow for
big plays and has helped
the Wildcats (3-0) remain
undefeated.
Whether it is the run
or pass option or the
pass, it opens up the field
so much, Bull said. It
allows us to do so many
different types of things
and have so many different
types of formations.
Senior running back Joe
Riley also rushed for over
100 yards and two touch-
downs. And the defense
once again dominated,
holding the Spartans (0-3)
to one touchdown in the
fourth quarter.
But it was the passing
