Jim Field visits with Shari Peterson, an Iowa native who wrote a book about her experience on United Flight 811 in February of 1989.  A cargo door of the plane blew off leaving a large hole in the side of the plane while over the Pacific Ocean and, miraculously, the pilot was able to get the plane back to Hawaii.  Nine people died in that disaster.  Shari will present a program October 6th and 7th at the Corning Opera House and have copies of her book, "The View from 13F" available.

Jim Field visits with Freese-Notis Meteorologist Dan Hicks about the harvest weather outlook, if the hurricane season will affect our weather and what the long term forecast for winter looks like.

The CAM Cougars started hot out of the gate and rolled to a 42-8 Homecoming win over the Audubon Wheelers on Friday. Austin Williams ripped off a 53-yard touchdown run on the Cougars first offensive play to set the tone.

Audubon answered that early CAM touchdown with a 65-yard shovel pass for a score from Aaron Olsen to Manny Beisswenger. That would be the end of the Audubon offensive effort in the first half though. The Cougars took the lead back two possessions later on a 47-yard pass from Chase Spieker to Jack Follmann. Then the Cougar defense took control. Audubon didn't have a first down the entire half and lost yardage after that early touchdown play.

CAM led 28-8 by halftime and fully closed the door to start the second half. Jack Follmann ran for a 65-yard touchdown on the first play of the half to put CAM up 34-0. He would later add a 47-yard score to finish the scoring in the game.

Austin Williams finished with 132 yards and 2 touchdowns. Follmann had 132 yards and two scores on the ground and 57 yards receiving with two more scores. Chase Spieker finished 7 of 9 passing for 112 yards and 2 touchdowns.

The Cougars improved to 3-2 on the season and 1-1 in District 10.

Audubon falls to 2-4 on the season and 2-1 in District 10.
