Sound of Springtown advances to Area

SHS band earns 1st division ratingby Natalie GeNtry

The Sound of Springtown earned a first division rating from all three judges at the University Interscho-lastic League Region 7 Marching Contest on Saturday, Oct. 18 in Glen Rose.

The superior performance earned the band a trip to Area Competition this Saturday, Oct. 25 at Gupton Stadi-um in the Cedar Park – Leander ISD.

Area contests scoringArea competitions are prelims/fi-

nals contests.During prelims, bands are scored by

five judges – three judging music and two judging marching.

Music score sheets are divided into five performance sections including woodwind, brass, percussion, ensem-ble, and musicianship.

Marching score sheets are judged in four sections: individual marching,

ensemble marching, drill design and execution, and colorguard and visual reinforcement.

Next, the total points of the five judges are added together and divided by five for an average score.

The 10 highest scoring bands from prelims advance to finals.

During the finals competition, the same scoring format is used; however, the two marching judges switch with two of the music judges while one music judge remains the same.

This session of musical chairs basically creates a whole new con-test.

One band for every five bands at Area advance to State.

Since Springtown’s Area will have a maximum of 24 bands, four bands will advance to the State competition on Nov. 3 at the Alamo Dome in San Antonio.

Hip to be SquareFirst Square Deal deemed a success

by Natalie GeNtryThe inaugural Square Deal fundrais-

er on Oct. 18 was a hit.According to Tabernacle commit-

tee member and Square Deal coor-dinator David Ward, the event was a success.

“It may not have been super crowd-ed, but we exceeded our financial goals and expectations for the Taber-nacle Fund, and that’s what it was all about.” Ward said. “For a first year, we did really well.”

Although the square wasn’t packed, Ward noted that there was a steady flow of event goers throughout the course of the day.

“Over the day we believe we had more than a hundred associated with the ‘I Hung Out and Cruised the Square’ reunion alone,” he said.

In addition both Woody Creek BBQ and B&B Burgers reported a great day of sales on Saturday.

The Friends of the Tabernacle cel-ebrated various contributions to the fund during the donation presentation including a surprise $6,000 gift from

Briar VFD capt. sentenced to 8 yearsReed convicted of indecency with a child

BY CARLA NOAH STUTSmANA long-time captain for the Briar Volunteer Fire Department was sen-

tenced Oct. 16 to eight years in the state penitentiary for fondling a young boy with whom he attended church.

Travis Jerrad Reed, 33, was convicted of indecency with a child, a sec-ond-degree felony, earlier the same day.

According to a press release issued by the Tarrant County District Attor-ney’s (TCDA) Office, jurors deliberated for about an hour-and-a-half be-fore convicting Reed, and another two hours before deciding his sentence.

In addition to his position with the Briar VFD, Reed also volunteered to help with the youth group at the Azle church, as well as other youth orga-nizations in the Azle area.

As a Briar VFD member, he participated in Azle’s annual Homecom-ing Parade on Oct. 13 – just hours after the jury that decided his fate was seated.

Reed was tried in Criminal District Court 3 in Fort Worth, where Judge Robb Catalano presides.

TCDA prosecutors told the court Reed hosted a bonfire and sleepover at his home for several boys from church in the summer of 2011. After ev-eryone went to sleep, Reed put his hand inside the sleeping bag of the boy, who was 11 years old at the time, and fondled him.

The boy testified that Reed also attempted to touch him in an inappropri-ate way on two other occasions.

The same boy and one other testified that Reed looked up their shorts during a martial arts class taught by Reed at the church.

“We hope that people who are in trusted positions and in positions of authority want to protect our children and we put trust in them,” said pros-ecutor Anndi Risinger. “In this case, the defendant used those positions to gain the trust of this child and his family, and he violated that trust in the worst possible way. This jury had a difficult job and we hope their verdict sends a message to this defendant and the community.”

An investigation into the young boy’s allegations led to Reed’s arrest on Oct. 23, 2012, by Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office (TCSO) deputies. Reed posted $7,500 bond and was released from the Tarrant County Jail the fol-lowing day.

He was indicted by a Tarrant County grand jury on April 17, 2013.According to a TCSO investigator, information obtained during a foren-

sic interview with the victim in the case indicated that all three incidents occurred in 2011.

Reed, who is married with an infant child, faced two to 20 years in pris-on. He was taken into custody immediately after his conviction and must serve at least half his sentence before becoming eligible for parole.

Eureka Lodge raises scholarship funds

Tim Hennessey was the win-ner of a Remington Deer Rifle during a scholarship fund rais-ing raffle hosted by Eureka Ma-sonic Lodge 371 in Springtown Saturday Oct. 18.

Traditionally Eureka Ma-sonic Lodge has held fundrais-ers like this for scholarships to benefit college freshman for books and tuition.

The Lodge has awarded $54,000 to students entering college this year alone and is endeavoring to raise the amount to $55,000 this spring.

Parent class at GCEGoshen Creek Elementary

School will be hosting a pro-gram on the first Monday of each month designed to share information, answer questions, and address any concerns that parents may have.

The meeting will begin with a brief address from an admin-istrator, and then the group will split up by grade level where parents will have the opportu-

nity to talk with a teacher, find out what will be going on in class during the next month.

Plus parents can get spell-ing words for the next four weeks.

After 15 minutes the group will rotate so parents with mul-tiple students may meet with each child’s teacher.

The entire program will last approximately 30- 45 minutes.

N2N children’s Christmas angel treeFood pantry focuses on SISD students in need

by Natalie GeNtryThe Neighbor to Neighbors

Food Pantry has requested that each of the churches in the Springtown Independent School District take an active part in providing Christmas for the needy children in the school system.

In the past, one church has been the project’s sponsor; however the size of the district and the program has increased enough that N2N is asking for help from more area churches.

“Our churches are the back-bone of our community and in the past have been there when-ever Neighbors has asked for help,” Gladys Lackey, assistant

director of N2N, said. “Neigh-bors will enroll the children in the program.”

Eligible families must be cli-ents of one of the food banks in the SISD area.

Qualifying guidelines are the same as those in place to receive food at the pantries.

Children should be enrolled in preschool through fourth grade in the SISD.

“Springtown Children’s An-gel Tree is a ‘needs based pro-gram,’” Lackey said. “Chil-dren’s pants, shirts, skirts, blouses, shoes, socks, and coats are what we consider needed items.”

In addition, Lackey noted that

N2N has partnered with Marine Corps Toys for Tots program, which furnishes each child with an age appropriate toy or game.

“In past years, we have placed 12 to 15 Christmas trees with names on them in local Spring-town businesses,” Lackey said. “We will continue that part of the process.

“We have had churches re-quest to have their own for the members of their congregation. The church would be responsible for the children on that tree,” she continued. “Neighbors is very grateful to have this help from our ministers.”

Parents or a household repre-sentative will need to have proof

of identification (state-issued ID, driver’s license); proof of resi-dency such as a utility bill or rent receipt; employment informa-tion; monthly assistance infor-mation like food stamps or sup-plemental security income; and a birth certificate for each child.

Children whose parents live in Parker County and go to school in the SISD who are not food pantry clients can apply to the Salvation Army Angel Tree Pro-gram in Weatherford.

The same income guidelines apply.

Enrollments for the angel tree will be held at Neighbor to Neighbors Food Pantry begin-ning Nov. 6.

By Natalie GeNtryThe next Springtown Legends Museum talk will feature

David Ward on Oct. 30.He will discuss fire safety as it pertains to the museum, and

to those attending.October is Fire Prevention Month, and this year’s theme is

“Working Smoke Alarms Save Lives!”Ward is a Certified Fire Protection Specialist (CFPS), and

has been on the CFPS Board of Directors since 2009.Ward’s grandfather, Clarence Ward, was one of the found-

ers of the Springtown VFD, and served as chief for the first 25 years; 1948-1973.

Clarence began a family tradition of service to the commu-nity which Ward continues today.

“I got my start here in the volunteer fire service, and pro-gressed through a successful nine-year career in the paid fire service,” Ward said. “I earned my bachelor’s degree in Fire Protection & Safety Engineering Technology from the School of Fire Protection and Safety at Oklahoma State University in

1995, and I have worked mostly as a loss control consultant in the insurance sector ever since.”

Family history locallyClarence Ward worked as a blacksmith – at the location

which is now Ward Welding – during the 1930s.He bought the place and became owner of “C.L. Ward

Blacksmith and Welding” in 1938. It became Ward Welding Company around 1976, and Ward

Welding & Supply, Inc. around 1980. In addition, another ancestor, Joseph Ward, was considered

one of the founders of Springtown because he was a surveyor and laid out the “Original Town of Springtown.”

The survey documents or deeds in the central part of town, all say “Joseph Ward Survey.”

In addition to the presentation, a scrapbook of the 1996 Poolville fire will be available for folks to look at.

That fire destroyed 58 homes and covered more than 16,000 acres.

During a burn ban, no burning of any type is allowed.However even when there isn’t a ban is in place, there are still some general rules residents are required to follow before outdoor burning.

• The City of Springtown has an ordi-nance against burning within city limits.

• Before burning be aware of wind di-rection and other weather conditions so that smoke and other pollutants will not

present a hazard to roads, landing strips, or navigable waters.

• Keep fires downwind of, or at least 300 feet away from, any neighboring structure that contains sensitive receptors.

• Begin burning no earlier than one hour after sunrise, end it the same day no later than one hour before sunset, and make sure that a responsible party is present while the burn is active and the

fire is progressing.• Don’t burn any electrical insulation,

treated lumber, plastics, construction or demolition materials not made of wood.

• Do not burn heavy oils, potentially explosive materials, chemical wastes, or items that contain natural or synthetic rubber.

•No burning at night except for cook-ing and heat.

7AThursday, October 23, 2014 www.springtown-epigraph.netOPINION

From the British point of view: American Revolutionary loyalists, Part 3

The one-sided accounts generally given by American historians, websites and filmmak-ers don't often mention the Battle of Penobscot

Bay, probably because a mere 50 Brit-ish Redcoats held off 3,000 rebels for several days, until the Royal Navy ar-rived, at which point they embarked their 40 ships, but only to sail up river where they managed to shipwreck themselves and disappear into the Maine's wilderness never to be seen again.

“The Loyalists were about 40 per-cent of the population overall, (Long Island was 90 percent Loyalist) and those that just didn’t want to be on the losing side (including 'late' Loyalists), made up the remaining 33 percent.

“The Loyalists being law abiding were originally passive relying on the British for protection, but after they became increasingly persecuted, ter-rorized and humiliated by the rebels, about 15,000 joined as provincials with the British Army and another 10,000 served part-time with the vari-ous Loyalist militias. Many of who became highly motivated after expe-riencing rebel brutality, an example of such a person is Thomas Brown the son of a merchant, who had tried to confront a gang of the Sons of Lib-erty, but they attacked him, fracturing his skull, then partially scalped him, tarred his legs and held him over a fire

with which he lost toes.

“The evil behind this r e v o l u t i o n apparent, he went on to re-cruit hundreds of men to serve bravely with the East Florida Rang-ers, the unit that held off Mad Anthony Wayne for 6 months allow-

ing everyone to evacuate Savannah safely. But as usual with such a deter-mined leader, he has since been vili-fied by US historians.

“Those Loyalists that remained pas-sive and the non-aligned were forced under the threat of death to swear and sign oaths of allegiance to the rebel cause.

“This turning it more into a civil war the rebels put their propaganda ma-chine into overdrive, claiming things like ‘Tories’ took babes from the breasts of their mothers to dash their brains out and the alleged Tarleton’s quarter. Also the rebels recruited rep-robates who had evolved a Presbyte-rian religion that as good as justified carrying out inhuman war crimes against Loyalists and keeping redcoat prisoners in such appalling conditions

that most died. “Anglican clergymen give testi-

mony to this, as when they had previ-ously ventured into places such peo-ple had settled, they found their lives ‘low, lazy, sluttish, heathenish, hellish and when trying to perform a church service, they always would turn it into a drunken singing reveling and danc-ing orgy.

“An example of what these 'from over the mountain' people were ca-pable of, was at the battle of Kings Mount where having surrounded a heavily out-numbered Loyalist unit, whose position had became hopeless so had (despite rebels not usually tak-ing Loyalist militia as prisoners), tried to surrender; they just cut Major Fer-guson to pieces and violated his body and this to a man whose chivalry in battle had prevented him from shoot-ing Washington in the back.

“Also if any other examples of bar-barity were required, they then used this distortion of religion to justify firstly starving those prisoners that they did take, only to hang or shoot most of them later.

“While the British won most of the battles (despite often being outnum-bered ), the conflict was really won by France, Spain, and Holland who also declared war on Britain with Russia Sweden and Denmark also denying trade. The coup-de-gráce was when French ships blockaded Chesapeake Bay denying Cornwallis any relief

and then a storm prevented him from retreating across the river, giving him no choice but to surrender. These same French ships then went on to the West Indies where Rodney's fleet (who were one week too late to save Cornwallis) caught up with them and smashed them to pieces.

“The French officers that had fought alongside the rebels were surprisingly conciliatory towards Cornwallis's men on their surrender at Yorktown, it's as if they knew their hypocrisy would rebound on them; they had fought a devious war to first aid the Ameri-can rebels to remove the British, then (which isn’t well known) to try later on to regain lost territory by go-ing to war with the Americans them-selves. Although an undeclared war, the French did actually try this in the Quasi-War but luckily for the Ameri-cans, Britain changed tactics and left them too stretched to finance it beyond inflicting terrible losses on American shipping.

“Britain could have fought on in America, but with her very existence under threat, wisely decided to con-solidate her forces to fight France and Spain directly and in doing so defeat-ed them, which actually protected the Americans.

The

Leading by a steadfast example: We can do better

Sometimes you meet some-one who really lived life.

That was David Brown, who died of pancreatic cancer and was buried Oct. 20.

His life, in only 67 years, was a tem-plate for everyone: Do good.

The first of many ways he contrib-uted to the world came in the Army where he was a paratrooper.

David joined as a lieutenant after he graduated from TCU.

From there, he became a member of the Weatherford Fire Department, ris-ing to the rank of captain and serving decades.

That would be a lifetime for many people already.

But David was barely started.

He sang bass with a popular Southern Gos-pel group Crimson River. The quartet, based out of North Side Baptist Church in Weatherford, performed hundreds of concerts through the years, traveling to sev-eral states.

David was also an am-ateur craftsman. Scores of people in the area own something wooden or metal he created for them. Mine’s a cross.

As the parade of speakers during the

two-hour memorial used one word over and over – stead-fast – it became evident that this was a guy who didn’t waste his time on earth.

Steadfast...what an attri-bute to possess – and encour-age.

David’s example showed us a truism: We can all do better.

There’s a lot of bile and anger in the world – take a look at the comments sec-tion after any story in any online publication.

Or check out the venom spewed daily at the president on the radio. Or read how Republicans are

soulless money-seekers, intent on keeping the downtrodden in their place.

The bumper sticker is right: Mean people do suck!

Now, of course, there is plenty of good in the world, yet much of it – like David’s steadfast life – goes un-noticed. That’s the way some people, again like David, want it. They don’t seek any sort of glory.

You know, it doesn’t cost anything to be nice.

Sometimes the world is just too much and every electronic should be shut down while we go sit on a bench and pause to appreciate the good for-tune that is all around.

There’s a lot of good out there and

you can contribute to it – like David did for decades.

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention that David and his wife Melody taught first grade Sunday School for 40 years.

Forty years!That’s why their names now adorn

the NSBC David and Melody Brown Children’s Building.

“Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abound-ing in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.”

1 Corinthians 15:58 ESVSteadfast, indeed.

Energy tips from TCEQ

The Texas Commission on Environmental Qual-ity is issuing a series of energy saving tips.

Here are a couple.Adjusting your ther-

mostats setting can result in not only energy savings but financial savings, too.

Both cooling and heating can be im-proved by installing and using a pro-grammable thermostat.

Another TCEQ recommendation is to keep your thermostat at 78 degrees or warmer in the summer and 68 or lower in cooler weather.

According to the Department of En-ergy, homeowners can save as much as one percent per year for each de-gree of dialing back if the setback pe-riod is eight hours long.

When used properly, a programma-ble thermostat with four temperature settings can save the average house-hold as much as $150 annually in en-ergy costs.

If every Texas household did this, the savings would be over $1.3 billion every year.

Another TCEQ tip concerns using an efficient HVAC (heating, ventilat-ing, air-conditioning) unit.

HVAC savings show up in the long run, the Texas agency noted.

However, bigger is not always better when it comes to HVAC units because larger systems require more energy.

In Texas, cooling and heating ac-count for as much as 40 percent of a homeowner’s energy expenses.

With an Energy Star heating/cool-ing system that is the appropriate size for the home, a resident can save up to 20 percent.

An added bonus is that they run cleaner and keep Texas air pure, TCEQ notes.

If the 8.7 million-plus Texas house-holds replaced their current systems with Energy Star HVAC systems, the state would save almost four billion kilowatt hours.

Additional water, air, and water tips can be found online at TakeCareOf-Texas.org.

Thursday, October 23, 20148A OPINION

With early v o t i n g in Texas only days a w a y , the U.S.

Supreme Court on Oct. 18 let stand a U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals order, thereby al-lowing Texas’ 2011 voter iden-tification law to remain in force for the time being.

Civil rights plaintiffs in Veasey et al. v. Perry et al. sought to have portions of the law declared unenforceable on constitutional grounds. In a Corpus Christi federal court-room, U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos struck down the law and ordered the state to return to election law practices in place before the Legislature passed the law in 2011.

The law, Ramos wrote, inten-tionally discriminates against Hispanics and blacks in viola-tion of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and is tantamount to a “poll tax” because of the cost to acquire any of the various ac-

ceptable forms of photo identi-fication that a voter is required to present at the polls, in addi-tion to a voter registration cer-tificate, in order to cast an elec-tion ballot. Ramos ordered the state to submit any proposed amendments to the election law to her. The State of Texas appealed and the Fifth Circuit granted the state’s petition to let the law stand. The plaintiffs then turned to the Supreme Court for redress, and were rebuffed.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg wrote a dissenting opinion in support of the plaintiffs’ assertion of unconstitutional effects of the Texas law. Ginsburg was joined in her dissent by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan. Majority support of the Texas law, however, came from the other six: Chief Justice John

Roberts and Justices Samuel Alito, Stephen Breyer, Antho-ny Kennedy, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas. But the six produced no written opin-ion in support of the State of Texas.

Abortion provisions on hold

In a 6-3 ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court on Oct. 14 put a hold on two requirements of Texas’ 2013 abor-tion law that report-edly have resulted in the closure of 34 out of the 41 abortion-providing facilities in the state:

1. That abortion facilities meet the same standards as ambulatory surgical

centers; and2. Doctors who perform abor-

tions at clinics in El Paso and McAllen need not have active admitting privileges at a hos-pital not further than 30 miles

from the location at which the abortion is performed or in-duced.

In taking this action, the high court temporarily suspends a two-week-old ruling by the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Ap-peals that allowed those por-tions to stand.

Meanwhile, the constitution-ality of the entire 2013 Texas abortion law is under review in the Fifth Circuit.

Texas job growth sets record Texas Workforce Commis-

sion on Oct. 19 announced the Texas economy added 36,400 seasonally adjusted total non-farm jobs in September and over the last 12 months added 413,700 total non-farm jobs.

Also, the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate fell to 5.2 percent in September, down from 5.3 percent in August and down from the 6.3 percent rate recorded in September 2013.

Furthermore, the agency noted, the seasonally adjusted civilian labor force population

in Texas topped 13 million for the first time in September at 13,005,600 individuals.

Governor to appear Oct. 31Gov. Rick Perry, through his

legal defense team last week, said he plans to be present for an Oct. 31 pre-trial hearing in the courtroom of visiting State District Judge Bert Richardson.

Perry faces a two-count felony indictment for abuse of office and official coercion, re-lating to his threat to veto the funding of the state’s Public Integrity Unit if the unit’s di-rector, Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehm-berg, did not resign after her arrest for drunken driving in 2013. Lehmberg ignored the threat and Perry vetoed the Public Integrity Unit’s $7.5 million budget. This prompted a criminal complaint against the governor that resulted in a Travis County grand jury in-dictment.

Judge Richardson allowed Perry to skip a scheduled pre-

trial hearing on Oct. 13 because of a previous engagement: an economic development trip to Europe. Perry’s legal team is expected to present motions asking Richardson to quash the indictments at the Oct. 31 hear-ing.

October: ‘Hog Out Month’Texas Department of Agri-

culture calls October “Hog Out Month” because it comes in the middle of the agency’s 2014 Coordinated Hog Out Manage-ment Program that runs from Sept. 1 to Nov. 30.

It’s a county-by-county, statewide, grant-supported ef-fort to cut the feral hog popula-tion. Some 2.6 million of these wild swine cause an estimated $500 million in damage in rural and urban Texas each year, the Agriculture Department said.

Do you know what the most e x p e n s i v e moving viola-tion is? I don’t know about

everywhere, but I know the answer in at least one Texas panhandle county. You may not know the answer to the ques-tion, but I’ll bet you know how I know the answer!

I was motoring down 287 last week coming home from spending a week with my per-fect and beautiful granddaugh-ter (you knew I’d get that in somehow) when I saw the flash-ing lights coming up behind me. I had seen him beside the

road a mile or so back and now he was coming after me. So, I began the check: speedom-eter…OK...registration and in-spection stickers…OK. I pulled over and began digging out my driver’s license and insurance card, totally clueless about the reason for the stop. He did not look happy as he walked up to my window. My infraction? I did not move to the left lane as I passed him by the side of the road while his lights were flash-ing.

“Passing an authorized emer-gency vehicle” carries a $300 price tag. Ouch!

Did you know that, when passing an emergency vehicle

w i t h l i g h t s f l a s h -ing, you m u s t e i t h e r y i e l d the lane or slow to 20 mph be-low the p o s t e d s p e e d limit? I s o m e -h o w

missed that memo. However, ignorance is not an acceptable excuse.

You should also know that I am the guy that ALWAYS pulls over to the right side and stops for an emergency vehicle in motion or for a funeral proces-sion. However, past history of exceptional behavior is no ex-cuse.

I get it. There have been too many emergency person-nel and good Samaritans who have been injured or killed by careless drivers. So, here’s the truth: I did it. I was wrong. I deserve the consequences. All $300 worth.

This morning, in my daily Bible reading time, I read 1 Peter 2:20-21. The Message translation says it this way:

“There's no particular virtue in accepting punishment that you well deserve. But if you're treated badly for good behavior and continue in spite of it to be a good servant, that is what counts with God. This is the kind of life you've been invit-ed into, the kind of life Christ lived. He suffered everything that came his way so you would know that it could be done, and also know how to do it, step-by-step.”

Don’t congratulate me, or anyone else, for accepting the consequences when we do something wrong. That is only noteworthy because we have so lowered our expectations of

behavior. Virtue is shown when we suffer for doing right AND do so with patience, grace, and continued service. Our lives matter so much to God that He wants to reveal His character through us in how we respond when we are treated unfairly. Jesus did not deserve the conse-quences of our sin, but He took them anyway.

How will His character be re-vealed in us today?

$300 a plate for a banquet of consequences?

JV, freshman volleyball excelling in District 8-4A actionWhile the Springtown High

School varsity volleyball team is putting together a fine season, so too are the junior varsity and freshman squads – especially in district action.

The SHS JV (10-13, 5-1) most recently swept Bridge-port, 2-0.

Springtown won 25-13, 25-14, Coach Hannah Adams re-called.

Karrah Cooper (7 digs), Raynee Henderson (11 assists, 5 aces), Taylor Keith (2 aces, 3 kills, 5 digs), and Jazz Mannin (3 kills, 4 digs) led the way.

The 9th (19-5, 6-0) is over-

whelming foes.No team in recent matches

has managed to push the young Lady Porcupines to three games.

Springtown has beaten Lake

Worth, 25-18, 25-10; Decatur 25-17, 25-21; Castleberry, 25-16, 25-13; and Bridgeport, 25-8, 25-8.

Coach Mallory Daniel espe-cially lauded her charges after

the Decatur victory: “We came out very focused, and it paid off in the end. I was very proud of these ladies.”

Two matches remain in the 2014 season.

By mArK K. cAmPBELLThere is no doubt that the

Lady Porcupine volleyball team (20-15, 5-1) is headed for

the playoffs.While a chance remains to be

co-champs with Decatur – the teams meet again at the SHS

gym on Springtown’s Senior Night Oct. 28 – a second place finish is the worst the Lady Por-cupines can end up.

On Oct. 17, SHS drilled vis-iting Bridgeport 3-0, taking games by scores of 25-12, 25-6, and 25-9.

Coach Leighann Strickland said, “We were better focused than our last time we played.”

She lauded the serving of Mackensie Martin who played “very well.” She shone with eight aces.

Strickland added that the serve receive and defense were more consistent as well.

Brooklyn Dauenhauer’s 15 kills led the way and so did her 8 digs, tied with Kendyl Dean.

Sydney Farris’ 16 assists led all.

Lots of Lady Porcupines hit the court in the blowout.

The playoffs begin with bi-district Nov. 3-4.

Porcupines dash visiting Eagles, 61-6By mArK K. cAmPBELLThings went as expected for

the Porcupine football team when 5-4A rival Fort Worth Di-amond Hill-Jarvis came to the local stadium Oct. 17.

Springtown (4-3, 1-1) bashed the willing but hapless Ea-gles, 61-6.

With new quar t e rback Austin Bau-man directing the troops, SHS moseyed out to a 21-0 lead.

Then came 27 second pe-riod points and starters were soon sitting.

A blowout allows coach-es to play plenty of players who don’t always get much time on the gridiron.

That’s what Brian Hulett did as a parade of Porcupines hit the turf.

Bowman threw two touch-down passes to start things off.

A 13-yard strike to Jared Green capped a 7-play drive.

That was followed later in the first quarter by a 17-yard aerial to Mateo Herrera, finishing off an 8-play trip down the field.

The Eagles actually pulled off an 11-play, 60-yard drive that resulted in a TD.

But the rest of the game, Diamond Hill managed just 48 more total yards.

Meanwhile, Bauman tossed two more touchdown passes, to

Green again (22 yards) and Dil-lon Springfield (26 yards).

From there, efforts to run the clock still resulted in points for the Porcupines.

Jonathan Chavez got a 21-yard rushing score and Dawson

Hinkley add-ed one from the 1.

Then, in the fourth quarter, Wriley Rus-sell capped off an 11-play, 71-yard drive with an 8-yard run.

The ex-pected victory gave Hulett a chance to rest some athletes.

They will all be needed

when Springtown travels to Al-varado to face the Indians; the winner will likely be the 5-4A runner-up.

Against the Eagles, a conser-vative Porcupine offense fin-ished with 440 total yards with Hinkley leading rushers with 95 yards.

Clayton Walker carried the ball just one time – he scored from midfield as part of that ex-plosive second quarter.

Three games remain for SHS, all winnable.

After Alvarado, a trip to Lake Worth awaits on Halloween night.

The season finale pits Spring-town against Castleberry at Porcupine Stadium on Senior Night, Nov. 7.

Next upAlvarado

The Indians have had an up and down season – well, down then up.Alvarado lost every non-district game: La Vega 41-19; at Decatur, 34-28, Gainesville, 16-14,

at Brownwood 29-15; and at Stephenville, 29-15.However, once district play began, the Indians have dispatched its two 5-4A foes. Alvarado

beat Diamond Hill-Jarvis 55-0 and last week defeated Castleberry in River Oaks, 34-14.The Indians are 2-0 in district, tied with Kennedale.

The winner of the Springtown-Alvarado clash will likely finish second in 5-4A.The area around the stadium at Alvarado is under construction so SISD officials

suggest allowing extra time to reach your seat.

Four contestants missed one game each in the weekly foot-ball contest.

No one saw Baylor losing to West Virginia.

But that was the only contest that a quartet of prognosticators missed.

So the tie-breaker game of Springtown 61, Fort Worth Diamond Hill-Jarvis 6 (67) de-termined cash distribution this time around.

And even that didn’t decide matters.

Two entrants guessed 65 on their tie-breaker, so the first ($20) and second place ($10) cash was combined.

Winning $15 each were Eddy Swanzy and Louden Strickland.

Third place and $5 was awarded to Wes Robinson; he guessed 55 on the tie-breaker.

Too far off was Clyde Brad-shaw with his prediction of 42 on the tie-breaker.

The junior varsity football Porcupines and the freshman squad continued their seasons against different foes.

The JV (5-2) raced out to a 20-0 first quarter lead and went on to defeat Fort Worth Dia-mond Hill-Jarvis 33-0 on the road.

Springtown scored 5 rushing TDs.

Tyler Bragg got 3 of them. Two came on a pair of first quarter 5-yard runs.

Scoring as well in that open-ing period was Hayden Quinn, also from the 5.

In the second period, Joss Crosson bolted in from the 30 and Dayton Schrage kicked his third successful PAT.

In the final quarter, Bragg recorded his third touchdown, from the 10.

Coaches noted, “The JV Porcupines had lots of players contribute to a good win on the road. They played solid defense with a ground and pound ap-proach on offense.”

The 9th Porcupines have had a tough go of it this season.

Many of the teams they have faced have been unbeaten or have just one loss – to one of those other unbeaten teams.

The freshman Porcupines do have a victory over Alvarado, and SHS tied Young Men’s Leadership Academy last week, 28-28.

In that tie, the young Porcu-pine defense scored 2 defensive touchdowns, coach Stryker Strickland said. One came on a fumble return by Guillermo Pando.

In addition, the SHS special teams unit added another score, on a kickoff return to paydirt by Pryce Morgan.

Among the frosh’s foes have been undefeated Brownwood; Vernon (who has lost only to Brownwood); unbeaten Liberty Christian; and flawless Ken-nedale whose has not lost a game not only at the freshman level but in seventh and eighth grades, too.

Of all the cinematic genres, the Movie Man is less crazy about war movies. He’s not a big fan of Westerns or romantic comedies either, but war mov-ies...meh.

But he’s seen a slew of them through the years. And, like all niche movies, there are good and bad in every genre.

Fury is a really good war movie.

About the filmThe best war movie ever is

Saving Private Ryan (1998, Movie Man No. 244, an 8 – the Movie Man gave Best of Year honors in ’98 to The Horse Whisperer [MM #234, 8], which was solid, but he now knows it’s no Private Ryan) followed closely by Apoca-lypse Now (1979) then Full Metal Jacket (1987).

The most recent really good war movie was Sands of Iwo Jima (2007, MM #703, 9, Best of Year [yes, Private Ryan’s 8 tops Iwo Jima’s 9; that’s Movie Man revisionist math]). When-ever anyone asks the Movie Man about a recent good war movie, this is one he recom-mends; it’s in all Japanese with subtitles and that, unfortunate-ly, scares off many. That’s too bad – it’s one of the best war pictures ever made, better than its companion piece, Flags of Our Fathers (2006, MM #688, 7).

Film aficionados list the top war movies differently.

Total Film Magazine: 3. The Thin Red Line (1998, a great movie famed as much for ac-tors cut out of it as for its pow-er; some of those axed from the final cut: Bill Pullman, Gary Oldman, Viggo Mortensen, Martin Sheen, Mickey Rourke, and a long narration by Billy Bob Thornton) 2. Schindler’s List (1994, MM #22, 9 [Forrest Gump (MM #33, 9) was Best of Year]); 1. Apocalypse Now.

American Film Institute lumped war movies in with ep-ics when their list was assem-bled. Pulling out the war mov-

Hard-nosed war movie faithful tank-ful for Furyies, the top three were: 3. (7 overall) All Quiet on the West-ern Front (1930, the definitive WWI movie despite its age); 2. (3) Schindler’s List; 1. (1) Law-rence of Arabia (1961 which must be seen on a big screen to be appreciated; incredibly, in his film debut, Peter O’Toole did not win the Best Actor Os-car – only because that was the year of Gregory Peck in To Kill a Mockingbird).

In America, war movies went out of vogue for a while after the giant movies of the 1950s’-60s. Then came the Vietnam pictures – like Platoon (1986) and Born on the Fourth of July (1989) – followed by an occa-sional spurt of military movies.

Today, we have Fury.

The plot (spoilers)Wardaddy (Brad Pitt) over-

sees a five-man tank crew in the waning days of WWII. Af-ter fighting in several countries, the “Fury” crew is now in Ger-many, “killing Germans.” But they’ve lost one of their own, KIA.

Pitt gets the greenest of green recruits as a replacement, Nor-man (Logan Lerman), a typist in the Army for eight whole weeks. The battled-hardened crew gives the newbie a hard time.

Soon, Fury is given another assignment as the Allies push deep into Germany. The Ger-mans are not going to give up – women, children, and old men are recruited to fight for the motherland and murdered if they refuse.

Lerman gets a little bolder upon seeing the horrors of war. And soon he really loses his in-nocence – just like fellow driver Gordo (Michael Pena), hillbilly mechanic Grady (Jon Bern-thal), and Boyd (LaBeouf), a religious man trying hard to stay that way.

The group helps claim a town. After an uncomfortable meal with a couple of frau-leins ends poorly – very poor-ly – Fury is told to help some

pinned down soldiers. Lead-ing four tanks into battle, the armored quartet comes upon a fearsome German Tiger tank – almost impenetrable. Only Fury survives the scrape.

Then comes the chore to se-cure a crossroads for advancing Allies. However, Fury, travel-ing alone, rolls upon a land mine and gets disabled. When Lerman, acting as an advance scout, spies hundreds of march-ing, angry Germans ready for a kill-or-be-killed battle, Pitt de-cides to go it alone, to fight on.

Eventually, his four fellow soldiers stay with him. But the odds are impossible and things end poorly – very poorly – for the Americans.

What worksFury is well acted in every

way. LaBeouf, even with his off-screen antics, is super and so is the rest of the crew. Pitt, in an unlikeable role, manages a smidgen of compassion, but the movie doesn’t tilt that way – it’s gruff and brutal.

The gritty look created by di-rector/writer David Ayer is fan-tastic – war is mucky and dark and smelly and exhausting. The humanity of war ain’t pretty, either; Allies kill almost every-thing they see and pilfer what-ever belongings – on bodies or in houses/businesses – they come upon.

The movie, at 2 hours 14 minutes, tools right along; it’s

exceptionally well made.Memorable scenes include

the Tiger attack and a sequence where Pitt and Lerman force two terrified German women to cook them a meal; just when everyone begins to feel some-what at ease with each other, LaBeouf, Pena, and Bernthal barge in and crank the tense-ness to 11.

Best scene (super spoiler)Fury’s encased members are

suffering from the endless as-sault of the advancing Germans at the crossroads. Soon, only Pitt and Lerman remain and the former is seriously wounded.

The rookie is mortified,

knowing that he will soon die. When he considers surrender-ing, Pitt says that’s a bad idea, that he’ll suffer even more. But there’s a slim chance for the green recruit. He takes it…but gets discovered anyway. Then, amazingly…

What doesn’t workThe characters follow the ba-

sic war movie template from decades earlier: hard-as-nails commander; raw recruit; dumb Southern boy; minority; and Bi-ble verse spouting believer who doesn’t flinch to mow down his fellow man amid a barrage of vulgarities. Very stereotypical.

The scene with the women – while especially powerful for a while – goes on too long. And its anticlimax, which can be seen from a mile away, falls flat.

Like a bad karate movie, the bad guys (Germans) too often wander toward the good guys standing up, easy pickin’s for mowing down.

It’s a little creepy seeing Americans as ghoulish scaven-gers, digging around the fresh-ly-killed enemy for whatever trinkets they can find.

The ratingFury is a hard R. There’s vio-

lence of course and plenty of gore – heads get blown plumb off twice. Then there’s the non-stop language.

Summing upWhile unrelenting in its

dreariness and realism, Fury still packs a punch in a you-are-there sort of manner. There’s no happy ending – in fact, no hap-piness at all – but it’s a strong war movie.

Next upProbably John Wick.Unless the Movie Man can

hunt down St. Vincent.

Hope springs eternal Community Garden receives grants for expansion

by Natalie geNtryThe Garden of Hope com-

munity garden recently re-ceived two grants worth nearly $14,000 to expand the garden.

Texas Health Harris Method-ist Hospital Azle and a private donor provided funds to extend the irrigation system to encom-pass plots for row crops and to plant and irrigate 60 fruit trees.

According to the U.S. De-partment of Agriculture (USDA) guidelines and num-ber of families in need, the area around Hope Lutheran Church, is considered a “food desert.”

Since June 1, the community garden has distributed 1,500 pounds of fresh fruits, veg-etables, and herbs to Northeast Parker County food pantries, shelters, and daycare centers.

“Participation has far exceed-

ed our expectations, said Frank Swehosky, president of the gar-den’s executive board. “Origi-nally, we thought we’d just build 16 raised beds and only build additional beds as com-munity interest grew. However, our patrons gave extravagantly and we were able to build out the entire 44 raised beds.”

“The community interest as-tounded me, especially given that we are only in our first year of operation,” he continued. “We have 16 different individu-als and groups gardening, some with multiple beds. We have about a 75 percent occupancy at the moment.”

Garden grantsTexas Health Azle awarded

a grant of nearly $4,000 to the Garden of Hope Association to

expand the irrigation system beyond the existing 44 raised beds, to include 24 10-foot by 15-foot plots to grow row crops and to plant and irrigate 20 fruit trees.

Azle’s Huffman Irrigation has already begun the irriga-tion work.

“The Garden of Hope aligns with our state grant initiative by providing Azle and sur-rounding communities access to fresh fruits and vegetables and Texas Health Resources’ mission to improve the health of the people we serve,” Jenni-fer Beck, community outreach specialist at Texas Health Azle said. “Helping people gain ac-cess to healthier food can, in the long-run, help reduce their risk of developing chronic con-ditions, so it’s really a three-fold win in our eyes.”

Additionally, Mrs. Helen Karasic Richards, an award-winning gardener of Fort Worth, awarded the Garden of Hope Association a grant of $10,000 through her conserva-tor, Robert Chicotsky.

The grant will allow the Gar-den of Hope to plant and ir-rigate 40 more fruit trees and over 20 blackberry bushes.

Regrettably, Mrs. Richards died a few weeks after the award was made. She was 98 years old.

Agricultural additionsThe Garden of Hope Asso-

ciation and their area partners expressed excitement about the ability to expand the commu-nity garden’s capability to help address the food security issues in northeast Parker County and provide a significant and di-verse amount of fresh produce.

“We’re hoping the news of the garden expansion, com-bined with giving 1,500 pounds to the food pantries and shel-ters will inspire the commu-nity to join us by leasing beds or plots,” Swehosky said. “My hope is that with additional gar-deners, we’ll be able to double

the amount of food that we can give away.

“Many of our gardeners indi-cated that they want to have a plot next spring as they found the beds too small for all the dif-ferent plants they want to try.”

In addition, the association selected a diverse collection of trees that will produce fruit almost continuously from late spring to late fall. Varieties include apples, apricots, figs, peaches, pears, persimmons, plums, and pomegranates.

“We are procuring bare root trees from Womack Nursery, which we’ll plant this January,” Swehosky said. “They say we should expect significant fruit crops in 3-5 years. At that time, imagine the amount of fruit we’ll be able to flow into the pantries and shelters!

“Some trees may be able to

produce 50 pounds or more of fruit per tree – and we’ll have 60 trees.”

Seasonal sowingThe Garden of Hope Asso-

ciation is currently accepting registrations for fall gardens.

“New registrations have fall-en off since the summer. Ap-parently, area folks aren’t used to planting fall gardens,” Swe-hosky said.

He also explained that the association has a few incen-tives for new gardeners such as ‘scholarships’ to cover the $25/bed registration fee for those who can’t afford it and free seeds that new gardeners can use for their fall plantings.

In addition, the association is holding a gardeners’ meeting at Hope Lutheran Church Satur-day, Oct. 25, from 9-11 a.m.

“We’ll have our pantry, shel-ter and daycare partners talk about the produce we gave them,” Swehosky said. “We’ll talk about horticulture lessons learned including soil prepa-ration, fertilizers, and pest control. We’ll also discuss im-provements to the garden for 2015.”

The Garden of Hope commu-nity garden is a non-profit min-istry of Hope Lutheran Church, 4795 E. Hwy 199, which is a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.

The association is composed of an executive board and gar-deners, all of whom are resi-dents within the Azle, Reno, and Springtown area.

Interested gardeners may pick up a registration packet at the church or email [email protected] peppers ripen on the vine at the garden of Hope.

Understanding the symptoms of breast cancer also can help women battle and defeat this potentially deadly disease. While the presence of any of the following symptoms does not necessarily mean breast cancer is present, the appearance of the following should be enough to inspire women and even men to visit their physicians for thorough examinations and screenings.

Changes in the feeling of the breast or nipple: A change in how the breast or nipple feels could be indicative of a larger problem. If the nipple is especially tender and this persists for an extended period of time, exercise caution and discuss this change with your physician. Similarly, if a lump or thickening develops on or near the breast or underarms, speak with your physician.

Changes in appearance of the breast: A lump or thickening in the breast may affect the

appearance of the breast. Another visible symptom of breast cancer is a change in the skin texture or an enlargement of pores in the skin of the breast, which may appear similar to dimpling, not unlike an orange peel. Swelling or shrinking of the breast, especially when such symptoms appear on just one breast, may also indicate breast cancer. In addition, some women with breast cancer notice a sudden asymmetry with their breasts despite their

breasts previously being symmetrical, and such a development should immediately be brought to the attention of a physician.

Changes in the appearance of the nipple: A nipple that appears different also may be a sign of breast cancer. Some women with breast cancer have noticed a nipple turned slightly inward or inverted prior to their breast cancer diagnosis. Skin of the nipple, as well as that of the breast and areola, which is the dark circle of skin around the nipple, may also become red, scaly or swollen when breast cancer is present.

Clear or bloody discharge from the nipple: Women who are breastfeeding often notice a milky discharge from their nipple after breastfeeding. Such discharges are normal. However, when a woman who is not breast-feeding notices the presence of a clear or bloody discharge from her nipple, such a development should be brought to the attention of a physician. Any of the aforementioned signs and symptoms may be a sign of infection or the presence of a cyst, both of which are less severe than the presence of breast cancer. But the success rates of treating cancers that are detected early is such that any potential symptom of breast cancer warrants an immediate discussion with a physician.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Even women who are a picture of health can develop breast cancer, highlighting the importance women must place on recog-nizing and detecting the symptoms of this often curable disease.

Knowing and recognizing the signs of breast cancer may

save your life

As with many types of cancer, breast cancer is most successfully treated when it is detected early. Over the previous quarter century, death rates for breast cancer have

been on the decline, a positive development that Breastcancer.org, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing reliable, complete and up-to-date information about breast cancer, suggests is a byproduct of the heightened awareness of breast cancer over the last 25 years and the increasing emphasis placed on breast cancer screening.

Shelter dogs in need of good homes

Thousands of dogs end up in shelters every year. Some get re-united with family members, but the vast majority are strays or surrendered by their owners.

The Humane Society of the United States estimates that animal shelters care for between six and eight million dogs and cats ev-ery year, and approximately half of those animals are ultimately euthanized. Substantial progress has been made to reduce the number of shelter animals that are euthanized, but more work is necessary to save animals from this unfortunate fate. To help reduce the number of homeless animals, many different shelters work to place animals in homes and educate men, women and children about pet overpopulation. Certain breeds tend to be more populous than others in shelters.

It is possible to find purebred dogs in shelters, and some shel-ters even specialize at placing particular breeds. However, many shelter dogs are mixed-breeds, often referred to as mutts. Accord-ing to polling from various shelters across the country, pit bulls, labradors, German shepherds, beagles, and their mixes tend to be the most common types of dogs found in shelters. Dogs perceived to be too hyper or aggressive frequently arrive at shelters when people find they cannot manage the animals. But with some train-ing and discipline, many dogs can become beloved companions.

The following is a look at the general temperament of common shelter dogs and the type of care and handling such dogs may re-quire.Pit bull terrier

A well-bred pit bull can be a dependable, loyal and good-na-tured companion. These dogs are athletic and must have moder-ate daily exercise to stay healthy and prevent boredom.

Pit bulls can be stubborn and dominant, meaning they will need confident owners who can establish and enforce expected behaviors. While they can be friendly with people, pit bulls may be assertive around other dogs, particularly when they feel their dominance is being challenged. In addition, these dogs have a high prey instinct and may chase cats or other small animals.

Pit bulls can usually live comfortably if they have adequate mental stimulation and are socialized at an early age.Beagles

Beagles are the perfect size for many families, and they also make friendly and peaceful dogs. Then why do they end up in shelters so readily? Beagles were developed as hunting dogs and may have these traits programmed into their heads to chase and seek out prey. What’s more, beagles need a lot of exercise, and some people simply do not have the time or inclination to exer-cise their dogs.

Beagles can bay or howl when

they become bored, and they may dig holes or try to escape close quarters. For these reasons, beagles may end up turned over to shel-ters. But firm training and positive outlets for energy can help make beagles welcome companions.German shepherd

Well-bred German shepherds are often self-confident and aloof but not hostile. But many German shepherds, thanks in part to overbreeding, exhibit unpredictable behavior.

German shepherds are a working breed and were developed to be smart and forward-thinking. Shepherds need mental stimula-tion to remain happy and could become destructive if not given a good intellectual outlet, such as agility classes or herding op-portunities.

German shepherds shed a lot of hair, making them undesirable to some people. When not properly socialized, shepherds may be aggressive toward other dogs, which can be problematic. How-ever, a shepherd that has been bred well, trained and socialized can make a loyal and friendly pet.
