The Knox County Board of Supervisors has placed Knox County Attorney Hanna Knox Jensen on suspension without pay for her position for one year, eliminated the position of Deputy County Attorney and discharged Chief Deputy Dan Henery and 911 Coordinator Heather Kienow via administrative action on August 27.

Check out this week's Historical Niobrara column, which is prepared each week by volunteers from the Niobrara Historical Society. Here's an excerpt from August 1975:
"The fans had a carload of thrill at the race track last Sunday. Those female drivers really kept a foot to the carburetor all through the race. Margaret Green led the first part of the race but she lost a wheel. Betty Larson got spun out at the halfway point. Then Faye Courtney in No. 500 took over and held on to get the win."
