Today's headlines:

  • Black Hawk College announces four finalists for president,
  • Ron Corbett will not be on the Iowa primary ballot for governor,
  • and John Deere's plow has been voted the top invention from Illinois.

It should be cloudy and breezy today with a high near 34. Northwest winds 10-20, with gusts up to 30 mph.

A native of Detroit, Herb Trix began his radio career as a country-western disc jockey in Roswell, New Mexico (“KRSY, your superkicker in the Pecos Valley”), in 1978. After a stint at an oldies station in Topeka, Kansas (imagine getting paid to play “Louie Louie” and “Great Balls of Fire”), he wormed his way into news, first in Topeka, and then in Freeport Illinois.
