DENNIS: HERE'S WHAT'S COMING UP ON ALMOND NORTH.

MARIA: TWO SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS ABOUT THEIR CAMPAIGNS AND THE PERSPECTIVE THEY BRING TO THE BOARD.

DENNIS: PAUL METZ A HAS RE-RELEASED HIS SONG JACK RUBY ON THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ASSASSINATION OF JOHN F. KENNEDY.

MARIA: A WISCONSIN PUBLIC RADIO HOST IS OUR GUEST THIS WEEK.

DENNIS: THOSE STORIES AND THE HEADLINES COMING UP NEXT ON ALMANAC NORTH.

♪ HELLO ONCE AGAIN AND WELCOME TO ALMANAC NORTH.

THANK YOU FOR WATCHING.

GREAT TO HAVE YOU HERE TONIGHT.

MARIA: ALWAYS A PLEASURE TO SIT NEXT TO YOU AT THE ANCHOR DESK.

DENNIS: MIGHT AS WELL BEGIN WITH THE HEADLINES.

MARIA: DULUTH WILL HAVE A NEW MAYOR IN 2024 AS THE INCUMBENT MAYOR WAS DEFEATED BY ROGER REINER IN TUESDAY'S ELECTION.

HE WON WITH 60% OF THE VOTE, GARNERING 70,500 OF THE 29,000 VOTES CAST.

DULUTH WILL HAVE THREE NEW CITY COUNSELORS TAKING SEATS IN JANUARY.

DENNIS: VOTERS IN THE DULUTH SCHOOL DISTRICT APPROVED ONE OF THE TWO REFERENDUM QUESTIONS ON TUESDAY'S BALLOT.

VOTERS PASSED A REFERENDUM THAT REFINANCES THE DISTRICT STAT, FREEING UP MONEY TO SPEND ON ACADEMICS AND STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH HELP.

VOTERS DID NOT APPROVE A MEASURE THAT WOULD HAVE RAISED THE DISTRICT LEVY TO PAY FOR TECHNOLOGY IMPROVEMENTS IN CLASSROOMS.

WE WILL HAVE MORE ON THE SCHOOL ELECTIONS COMING UP IN A MINUTE.

MARIA: THE MINNESOTA DNR REPORTS THAT THE DEER HARVEST IS DOWN 12% FOLLOWING OPENING WHEN -- WE CAN.

OVER 88,000 DEER HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO THE STATE AS OF THURSDAY WITH 10 DAYS LEFT IN THE SEASON.

IN 2022, MORE THAN 170,000 DEAR WERE TAKEN DURING THE FIREARM SEASON.

DENNIS: TOMORROW IS VETERANS DAY, HONORING ALL WHO HAVE AND CONTINUE TO SERVE OUR COUNTRY.

ACCORDING TO A PROCLAMATION BY GOVERNOR TIM WALZ, 300,000 VETERANS LIVE IN MINNESOTA.

THE CEREMONY WILL BE HELD AT AMERICAN LEGION 71 IN LESS TO LOSE SATURDAY AT 11:00.

MARIA: DULUTH SCHOOL VOTERS WENT TO THE POLLS TUESDAY TO VOTE ON REFERENDUM QUESTIONS AND ELECTED NEW SCHOOL BIRD MEMBERS.

THEY WERE ELECTED IN DISTRICT 2, 3, AND LARGE C. JOINING US NOW ARE TWO OF THE NEWLY ELECTED SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS.

WELCOME AND CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH OF YOU.

>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

MARIA: I'M SURE IT'S BEEN A WHIRLWIND OF A WEEK.

VERY BUSY WEEK.

LOOKING FORWARD NOW.

MAYBE WE CAN START WITH TAKING A STEP BACK AND TALKING ABOUT THE MOTIVATIONS THAT LEAD YOU TO RUN FOR SCHOOL BOARD.

>> SO I GREW UP HERE IN DULUTH.

I MOVED TO DULUTH FROM MINNEAPOLIS WHEN I WAS IN THE SIXTH GRADE.

I WENT TO DULUTH PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

I'VE NEVER LEFT DULUTH.

MY MOM WAS A TEACHER.

I WORKED FOR DULUTH PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

SO I JUST FEEL LIKE, BEING A PART OF THE SCHOOLS IN THAT WAY, I GOT TO REALLY SEE WHAT THE SCHOOLS ARE LIKE.

I'M ALSO APPARENT.

>> THANK YOU.

MY MOTIVATION FOR RUNNING FOR SCHOOL BOARD WAS THAT I REALLY WANTED TO DO SOMETHING MORE FOR RESIDENTS, FOR CHILDREN IN DISTRICT THREE.

I HAVE SERVED FAMILIES AND CHILDREN FOR OVER 35 YEARS.

I WANTED TO BRING MY SKILLS AND MY ENERGY TO THE SCHOOL BOARD TO REPRESENT FAMILIES IN THE DISTRICT.

BECAUSE I FELT, WE NEEDED TO DO MORE IN SERVICE TO OUR COMMUNITY AND I WANT TO HELP MAKE OUR SCHOOLS THE BEST IN THE STATE.

DENNIS: WHAT DO YOU FEEL ARE THE KEY ISSUES IN DISTRICT THREE?

>> RIGHT NOW, I BELIEVE DISTRICT THREE SUFFERS FROM ATTENTION THAT IT NEEDS WITH REGARD TO MAKING SURE OUR CHILDREN ARE GETTING EVERYTHING THEY NEED IN THE SCHOOLS, ESPECIALLY MARCH WELCOMES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FOR EXAMPLE.

WE NEED TO DO MORE TO MAKE SURE OUR KIDS ARE GETTING THE RESOURCES SO THAT THEY CAN ATTAIN THE ACADEMIC RESOURCES FROM THE STANDPOINT OF MOVING TO THE NEXT LEVEL.

BUT HAVING GAINED EVERYTHING THEY NEED TO MOVE TO THE NEXT LEVEL WITHOUT SAYING, WE HAVE TO COME BACK AND YOU HAVE TO STAY HERE FOR ANOTHER YEAR.

WE WANT TO MAKE SURE OUR KIDS ARE READY.

DENNIS: DO YOU SEE THOSE SAME ISSUES?

>> ABSOLUTELY.

WE NEED TO GET OUR STUDENTS PREPARED FOR THE REAL WORLD.

IT'S NOT ALWAYS COLLEGE READINESS.

I THINK WE NEED TO GET STUDENTS READY COME AND MEET THEM WHERE THEY ARE AT.

IF THAT'S GETTING THEM INTO TRADES AND READY TO START JOBS.

BUT WE NEED TO MEET STUDENTS WHERE THEY ARE AND MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE EDUCATED THE BEST WAY THAT THEY CAN BE.

THAT LOOKS DIFFERENT FOR EVERY STUDENT.

MARIA: ONCE YOU WILL BE ON THE BOARD, WHAT'S THE FIRST THING YOU WANT TO TACKLE?

>> FOR ME, I BELIEVE WE NEED TO WORK AS A BOARD TO BE MORE TRANSPARENT.

WHILE OUT KNOCKING ON DOORS, FOLKS WERE SAYING, THE BOARD ISN'T TRANSPARENT.

THEY ARE NOT TELLING US, GIVING US THE INFORMATION WE NEED.

SO AS A BOARD MEMBER, I WANT TO WORK WITH OTHER BOARD MEMBERS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE SERVING THE FOLKS WE ARE SERVING AND BEING TRANSPARENT IN THE WAY THAT IF SOMEONE WERE TO ASK US, WE HAVE THE ANSWER.

DENNIS: HOW CAN THE BOARD ATTRACT STUDENTS BACK TO THE DISTRICT?

>> I THINK THAT'S A SERIOUS ISSUE.

ONE OF THE WAYS WE WILL ATTRACT STUDENTS AND FAMILIES BACK TO THE DISTRICT IS WHEN WE ARE TRANSPARENT AS A BOARD AND WE ARE PROVIDING THOSE EDUCATIONAL EDGE IT -- OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL STUDENTS.

WE ALSO HAVE TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THE RELATIONSHIPS THAT WE HAD WITH OUR PARENTS.

OUR PARENTS ARE MAKING THE DECISION TO TAKE THE KIDS OUT OF THE SCHOOLS.

I THINK IT'S VITALLY IMPORTANT.

MARIA: WHAT ARE YOU HOPING TO DO WITH YOUR FIRST ACTION ON THE BOARD?

>> I REALLY WANT TO LISTEN.

I'VE HAD GREAT CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR SITTING SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS, BOTH THOSE THAT ARE SAYING -- STAYING AND THOSE THAT ARE LEAVING AFTER THIS TERM.

I HAVE A LOT TO LEARN FROM THE FOUR THAT REMAIN.

I'VE BEEN A LISTENER AND A GOOD COMMUNICATOR MY WHOLE LIFE.

I WANT TO COLLABORATE WITH OUR SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS AND LEARN THE JOB.

DENNIS: HOW WILL YOU SEE THE DISTRICT DIFFERENTLY NOW THAN IS IS -- AS A SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER?

>> WORKING IN THE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE, I FEEL LIKE I GOT A GOOD CHANCE TO KNOW THE SUPERINTENDENT AND CURRICULUM DEPARTMENT.

I WORKED MOSTLY WITH THE PREVIOUS SUPERINTENDENT.

I CAME ON AS SUPERINTENDENT BONDS -- MAGGOTS CAME ON.

SO BUILDING THOSE RELATIONSHIPS IS REALLY IMPORTANT.

MAKING SURE THAT THAT COMMUNICATION STAYS OPEN.

SEEING THAT OUR ACTIONS IN THE WAY THEY FUNCTION AS A BOARD HAS BEEN HELPFUL.

>> REGARDING TEACHERS, WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE AS A BOARD MEMBER IS THAT WE ESTABLISH SOME KIND OF PLAN TO RECRUIT AND RETAIN BIPOC TEACHERS, ESPECIALLY MEN IN THE CLASSROOM.

BECAUSE WE NEED MEN OF COLOR IN FRONT OF THOSE CLASSROOMS TEACHING ALL OF OUR CHILDREN.

RIGHT NOW WE DON'T HAVE THAT.

IT'S VITALLY IMPORTANT THAT WE DO SOMETHING.

MAKE AN EFFORT TO RECRUIT AFRICAN-AMERICAN MEN, NATIVE AMERICAN MEN ETC.

IN TEACHING.

MARIA: IT'S IMPORTANT.

>> PEOPLE SPOKE WHEN THEY WENT TO THE POLLS.

I THINK PEOPLE REALLY WANT TO SEE THEMSELVES.

WITH ME AND HENRY ON THE BOARD NOW, I THINK MORE PEOPLE CAN SEE THEMSELVES REFLECTED IN THE ADMINISTRATION AND AND POLICYMAKERS.

MARIA: THANK YOU BOTH FOR BEING HERE AND CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN.

DENNIS: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

♪ IT'S TIME FOR VOICES OF THE REGION WHEN WE HEAR FROM AN AREA JOURNALIST ABOUT STORIES MAKING NEWS.

THIS WEEK, OUR GUEST IS DANIEL KATIE FROM WISCONSIN PUBLIC RADIO.

♪ >> A NEW BILL WOULD ALLOW THE FOREST PRODUCTS INDUSTRY TO TRACK HEAVIER LOADS ON MORE ROUTES NEAR THE MICHIGAN WISCONSIN STATE LINE AND THE PROPOSAL WOULD ADD 10 ROUTES.

THAT INCLUDES PARTS OF STATE HIGHWAYS IN SAWYER COUNTY.

THE BILL WOULD ALSO ALLOW TRUCKS THAT CARRY TWICE AS MUCH WEIGHT AS WISCONSIN CURRENTLY ALLOWS ON STATE HIGHWAYS.

NORMALLY THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION LIMITS TRUCKS TO CARRYING UP TO 80,000 POUNDS.

STATE TRANSPORTATION OFFICIALS CAN GRANT THESE SO-CALLED MICHIGAN BORDER PERMITS FOR OVERWEIGHT VEHICLES TO TRANSPORT LOADS WITHIN 11 MILES OF THE WISCONSIN MICHIGAN BORDER OR DESIGNATED ROUTES.

UNDER THESE PERMITS, TRUCKS WOULD BE ALLOWED TO ABIDE BY MICHIGAN'S MAXIMUM WEIGHT LIMIT WHICH IS 164,000 POUNDS.

HENRY SHANNA BACK WITH THE GREAT LAKES TIMBERS OFFICIALS ASSOCIATION SAYS THEY WOULD USE TRUCKS WITH MORE AXLES AND TIRES.

HE SAYS THAT WOULD HELP TO SPREAD OUT THE INCREASED WEIGHT AND THEREFORE DO LESS DAMAGE TO THE ROADS.

THE TIMBER INDUSTRY SAYS THAT IT WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING ANALYSIS FOUND THAT THESE ROUTES IN QUESTION UNDER THE LEGISLATION COULD HANDLE HEAVIER LOADS GET BUT THE AGENCY ALSO SAYS THAT WAS BASED ON CURRENT CONDITIONS.

THEY ANTICIPATE THAT HIGHER TRUCK VOLUMES WILL SPEED UP THE DECLINE OF THE STATE ROADS.

♪ ANOTHER REPUBLICAN BILL WOULD ELIMINATE RESTRICTIONS FOR HOUND HUNTING AND TRAINING ON WILD ANIMALS DURING SPRING IN NORTHERN WISCONSIN.

HIS STRONG SUPPORT FROM HOUND HUNTERS BUT OPPOSITION FROM ANIMAL PROTECTION GROUPS.

THE WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES CURRENTLY BARS HOUND HUNTING AND TRAINING ON WILD ANIMALS FROM MAY 1 TO JUNE 30 ON PUBLIC AND PRIVATE LANDS IN NORTHERN WISCONSIN.

REPUBLICAN STATE SENATOR ROMAIN QUINN IF AND REPUBLICAN STATE REPRESENTATIVE CHANCE GREEN ARE THE LEAD AUTHORS OF THIS PROPOSAL.

GREEN SAYS THE LAW IS OUTDATED OR THAT THESE REGULATIONS ARE OUTDATED.

THEY WERE INTENDED TO PREVENT OUT OF SEASON HUNTING OR TRAINING FOR BAER HUNTER'S.

NOW HE SAYS THERE ARE WELL-ESTABLISHED SEASONS AND THAT THIS RESTRICTION IS NO LONGER NEEDED.

HOUND HUNTERS SAY THEY FEAR FINES IF THEIR DOGS CHASED AN ANIMAL WHILE OFF LEASH DURING THE SPRING.

THE DNR SAYS THAT NO SUCH CITATIONS HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS AND THEY THINK THAT INDICATES VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE ON BEHALF OF HUNTERS WITH THIS RESTRICTION THAT'S CURRENTLY IN PLACE.

ANIMAL PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION GROUPS SAY THESE RESTRICTIONS PREVENT ROUND NESTING BIRDS AND YOUNG ANIMALS LIKE WOLF PUPS FROM BEING DISTURBED.

THE WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES IS FORECASTING THAT HUNTERS MIGHT BANG FEWER DEAR BECAUSE LAST SEASON, THEY SAW IDEAL CONDITIONS, INCLUDING SNOW ON THE GROUND AND ALSO THE MAJORITY OF THE CORN IN THE FIELDS WAS HARVESTED IN THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE STATE.

SO THAT CORN CAN HIDE DEER FROM VIEW AND PREVENT HUNTERS FROM HAVING SUCCESS.

SO THE DEER PROGRAM SPECIALIST SAYS HE WOULD BE SURPRISED IF UNSER -- HUNTERS MATCHED LAST YEAR'S HARVEST UNLESS THEY SAW THESE IDEAL CONDITIONS.

LAST WINTER, IN NORTHERN WISCONSIN IN THE FORESTED ZONE, HUNTERS HARVESTED ABOUT 20% MORE DEAR -- DEER THAN THE YEAR BEFORE.

HUNTERS SAW A LOT OF SUCCESS IN CENTRAL WISCONSIN.

THEY HARVESTED 30% MORE DEER DURING THAT TIME.

THE DNR ANTICIPATES IT MAY BE DIFFICULT TO MATCH LAST YEAR'S HARVEST.

SOME HUNTERS SAY THEY ARE EXPECTING TO HAVE GOOD SUCCESS.

THE SEASON OPENS ON NOVEMBER 18 AND IT RUNS THROUGH THE SUNDAY AFTER THANKSGIVING, CLOSING ON NOVEMBER 26.

♪ DENNIS: 60 YEARS AGO THIS MONTH, PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY WAS SHOT WHILE WRITING IN HIS MOTORCADE IN DALLAS.

HOURS LATER, A SUSPECT IN THE ASSASSINATION NAMED LEE HARVEY OSWALD WAS DETAINED AND ACCUSED OF THE ASSASSINATION.

TWO DAYS LATER, OSWALD WAS SHOT AND KILLED ON LIVE TELEVISION AS HE WAS BEING TRANSFERRED FROM THE CITY TO COUNTY JAIL.

THAT SHOOTING HAD A PROFOUND IMPACT ON OUR NEXT GUEST, A SINGER AND SONGWRITER WHO WROTE A SONG ABOUT THE INCIDENT.

WELCOME.

GOOD TO HAVE YOU ON THE SHOW TONIGHT.

>> THANKS FOR HAVING ME.

I APPRECIATE IT.

DENNIS: WHEN DID YOU START THINKING ABOUT RERELEASING THIS SONG?

>> I WROTE THE SONG IN 1992, PERFORMED AT TEXAS STADIUM NOT TOO FAR FROM DEALEY PLAZA.

IN FRONT OF 20,000 UNSUSPECTED TEXANS.

LIVED TO TELL THE STORY.

I GOT TOGETHER WITH A GREAT VIDEOGRAPHER.

WE DECIDED AS THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ASSASSINATION WAS COMING UP, THAT HE OFFERED TO TO PUT TOGETHER A VIDEO FOR IT.

WE RELEASED IT 10 YEARS AGO.

NOW WITH THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY COMING UP, WE THOUGHT WE WOULD REALLY REALLY SET IN TIME FOR THE ANNIVERSARY.

MARIA: IT'S BEEN 60 YEARS SINCE THAT INCIDENT AND NOW IT'S BEEN MORE THAN 30 YEARS SINCE YOU ORIGINALLY RELEASE THE SONG.

DOES THE SONG STILL HAVE THE SAME MEANING TO YOU AS WHEN YOU ORIGINALLY WROTE IT?

>> OH YEAH.

I REMEMBER WATCHING, IT WAS SUCH A TRAGIC WEEK IN AMERICAN HISTORY.

I WAS SEVEN YEARS OLD.

I REMEMBER WATCHING JACK RUBY SHUTE LEE HARVEY OSWALD WITH MY MOTHER ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF VIRGINIA.

AND IT WAS HORRIFIC.

THE ASSASSINATION ITSELF WAS HORRIFIC.

SEEING THIS LIVE WAS HORRIFIC.

WHEN I LOOK BACK AT IT, IT WAS THE FIRST REALITY TV SHOW.

OVER THE YEARS, I READ 15 TO 20 BOOKS ON IT.

I NEVER BOUGHT INTO THE WARREN COMMISSION.

I ALWAYS THOUGHT JACK RUBY, HIS NAME HAD A REALLY POETIC SOUND TO IT.

IN 1992, I WAS READING THE NEWSPAPER AND JACK KIRBY'S BROTHER WAS SELLING SOME ARTIFACTS OF JACK'S TO PAY OFF THE TAX LIEN INCLUDING HIS KAVANAUGH HAT.

THE SUPREME COMMANDER OF SONGWRITING, WHOEVER THAT IS.

I WISH HE WOULD VISIT ME MORE OFTEN.

SO I STARTED WRITING THE SONG.

I'D HAD IT WRITTEN FOR ABOUT A MONTH WHEN I HAD THE OFFER TO PLAY IT.

I THOUGHT, I AM GOING TO DEBUT IT DOWN THERE.

AND I DID.

DENNIS: DID YOU FINISH IT IN SHORT ORDER?

>> IT TOOK ME 12 HOURS.

I PUT ALL OF MY BOOKS IN FRONT OF ME.

I KNEW QUITE A BIT ABOUT IT.

BUT I WANTED TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT JACK RUBY HIMSELF.

SO I DID.

ABOUT 9:00 IN THE MORNING, I CALLED MY GOOD FRIEND DAVID CARR WHO ENDED UP WORKING FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES.

MAY HE REST IN PEACE.

I GAVE HIM THE THREE VERSUS AND I NEEDED THE FOURTH.

HE SAID, I HAVE TO THANK DAVID CARR FOR THAT.

YEAH.

I FEEL THAT IT HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME.

PEOPLE OF A CERTAIN AGE GROUP, THEY RELATE TO IT.

THAT TIME IN AMERICAN HISTORY AFFECTED SO MANY OF US SO HEAVILY.

DENNIS: HAS THAT BECOME YOUR SIGNATURE SONG?

>> IT GETS REQUESTED A LOT.

DENNIS: IT DOES.

OK.

HERE'S A CLIP FROM THE LIVE TELEVISION COVERAGE OF 1963 AS OSWALD IS BEING LET OUT OF THE JAIL.

>> DALLAS CITY HALL.

HE'S BEEN SHOT.

MARIA: NOW LIVE IN OUR STUDIO, HERE'S THE ORIGINAL SONG JACK RUBY.

>> ♪ JACK RUBY JACK RUBY WHOEVER TAUGHT YOU TO SHOOT A PISTOL LIKE THAT, STUCK IN THE BASEMENT, STOOD IN THE BACK.

JACK RUBY AND I KAVANAUGH HAT JACK RUBY, JACK RUBY WHEN YOU WERE TWENTY-ONE YOU TRADED BRASS KNUCKLES FOR A CALIBER GUN IN THE SHERMAN HOTEL BOOTLEG WHISKEY DID RUN JACK RUBY, JACK RUBY WHEN YOU WERE TWENTY-ONE JACK RUBY WHEN YOU WERE THIRTY-FIVE SET UP SHOP IN DALLAS, HAD NOTHING TO HIDE A NIGHTCLUB WITH HOOKERS AND COPS SIDE BY SIDE JACK RUBY, JACK RUBY, WHEN YOU WERE THIRTY-FIVE 14 YEARS LATER WHEN YOU WERE FORTY-NINE AT THE CAROUSEL CLUB YOU KEPT THE JUDGES IN LINE J. EDGAR HOOVER SAID THERE'S NO ORGANIZED CRIME JACK RUBY, JACK RUBY WHEN YOU WERE FORTY-NINE.
