Longtime local pastor dies ‘Encourager’ Conway a fixture around Springtown by mark k. campbell If you were in Springtown very long at all, you ran into Johnnie Conway.

Sadly, that won’t happen anymore.

The pastor of Hilltop Family Church, Conway died on the morning of Aug. 19.

Visitation is slated from 6-8 p.m.

Thursday, Aug. 21 with funeral services set for Friday, Aug. 22 at 10 a.m. Both events take place at Hilltop, 1227 Old Cottondale Road.

Always involved with the town’s activities, Conway, aka “Brother John,” had taken part in the Springtown ISD’s invocation service the previous day.

Conway was found Tuesday morning and could not be revived, the cause suspected to be a heart-related issue, according to a notice on the Hilltop website.

The church also posted online: “It is with a heavy heart that we inform you our beloved Pastor Johnnie Conway has gone to be with the Lord. We do rejoice in knowing that he is in the presence of our amazing Savior.”

Keith Warren, an SHS grad and current executive pastor at Weatherford’s North Side Baptist Church, said he and Conway went back years.

“I was the second employee and the first youth minister at Hilltop,” Warren recalled. “Back in those days, it

was just John and I. I will never forget that he was willing to do just about anything to get people to come to church.”

Pastor Hal Kinkeade of First Baptist Church of Springtown considered Conway more than just a fellow Christian leader.

“When I think of John, I think first of all of a friend and brother, not just as Christians and ministers but as someone that I looked forward to seeing and fellowshipping with,” he said.

Kinkeade added, “John was always faithful to his priorities. He simply majored on Jesus and His Word and prayer. Everything he did was related to Him.” Conway was also a devout family man. “He loved his family,” Kinkeade said. “There was never a time that I visited with him that he did not share his love for Cindy, his kids, and certainly his grandkids.”

News of Conway’s death rattled Springtown.

The effervescent man with the quick laugh and ready hug was plugged into most activities in town.

Amy Walker, executive director of the Springtown Chamber of Commerce, said the startling news brought “selfish” thoughts to her.

Chamber welcomes 41 new teachers to SISD

by Natalie Gentry

The Springtown Chamber of Commerce devoted much of the luncheon Aug. 14 to recognizing the Springtown Independent School District’s (SISD) newest educators.

SISD Superintendent Mike Kelley introduced the principals from each campus, who in turn announced new faculty members at their schools.

“I couldn’t be more excited about this school year,” Kelley said. “This group is a terrific mix of new and experienced teachers who have new and exciting ideas to contribute.”

Kelley noted that – with only a couple of exceptions – all of the new hires either grew up or previously taught west of Interstate 35.

“Typically when we talk about West

Texas folks we know they are Godfearing, hard-working, people who have a love for their neighbors,” Kelley said. “That’s the type of people we want teaching our kids.”

He expressed confidence the new additions will succeed in contributing to the high expectations the school district sets for its students.

“There’s a lot of talent in this room,”

Kelley said.

Springtown High School welcomes the largest number of new teachers with 15 added to its teaching staff and two new administrators.

The middle school and intermediate schools are close behind, adding eight new teachers to each campus this year.

By Natalie Gentry As of Aug. 29 Shawn Scott will no longer be the Parker County Fire Marshal and Emergency Management Coordinator.

Scott submitted his letter of resignation to the county Aug. 6.

After almost nine years as fire marshal, he is making the transition to a job in the private sector, according to County Judge Mark Riley.

Scott’s resignation letter indicates he will continue to assist and support Parker County until a replacement is found.

“After much thought and toil, I have decided to tender my resignation as Parker County Fire Marshal and Emergency Management Coordinator. A new opportunity has presented itself that will have a great positive impact on my family’s future,” Scott wrote.

“My time here has been a lifechanging experience that will forever define who I am and will be. I am proud to say that I have been a part of Parker County history,” he noted.

Scott echoed his statements in a later interview with the Epigraph.

“I love, and have always loved, my job here in Parker County,” Scott said “This move is simply the right move for my family.”

In his letter, Scott indicated that he will continue to help the office during the transition.

“Although I will not be an employee of the county, I intend to continue to volunteer my time to Parker County and support emergency services in Parker County

“As there are many projects underway at this time, I am happy to assist as much as I can until a suitable replacement may be found. In my remaining time I will work to make sure all projects and functions of the office will continue,” he noted.

Scott expanded on those statements to the Epigraph.

Conway remembered as man who loved S’town n CONWAY, FROM PAGE ONE.

“Who is going to coordinate the children’s area for the Wild West Festival? Who will I call if the LED marquee stops working?” Walker questioned.

She added that she was about to ask Conway to include her youngest son in the pastor’s prayers since her boy will be entering his senior year at SHS. Walker said, “John was a unique gift, a special gift that you treasure forever. I will always consider myself blessed to have been a part of his life; he was a special man.”

Former SISD superintendent Andrea Hungerford noted that plenty of people in Springtown knew and loved Conway.

“He was such a supportive community member and a champion for Springtown students and teachers,” she said.

“He gave his time and energy for the betterment of the community. His handprint was on so many events, activities and charities.

“He lived out his Christian beliefs by serving others.”

Springtown ISD Superintendent Mike Kelley echoed

Hungerford when it came to Conway’s support of the school district.

Kelley said, “The district has been blessed by his participation in convocations, board meetings, and baccalaureates, and he has always been a tremendous supporter of our schools.”

Kinkeade noted, “He loved sacrificing unmeasurable time on behalf of the city of Springtown and our school system.”

One way Conway gathered the community was as host for the annual National Day of Prayer each May. The pastor would encourage others to

pray for distinct areas or topics as he directed the morning’s activities and happily doled out door prizes from the Hilltop facility stage.

That event was always based on love of America, a priority for Conway, Kinkeade said.

“John loved this country and he constantly was involved in calling it back to its Judeo-Christian roots,” the First Baptist pastor said.

Walker said, “He was a very special man to so many.”

Hungerford noted, “He embraced others, including me, with his humor, wit, and ac-

ceptance. He will be missed.”

While the loss is painful to many, Kelley said, “I have confidence that the community will rally to pick up the pieces he’s left behind; he was involved with a lot of different things outside of just his congregation. John was always among the first to provide an encouraging word or offer support when he recognized a need.

“John will be sorely missed.”

Similar notations were made on Conway’s personal Facebook page as well as the Epigraph’s.

Warren said, “He loved and was loved by many. He was

one of a kind for sure. I know he will be missed.”

Kinkeade summed up Conway’s influence in Springtown. “Obviously he lived and breathed Hilltop Family Church. In every respect he put his life’s blood into being the pastor/preacher God would have him to be.

“While I know John is celebrating eternal life with Jesus, his time with us was a blessing from the Lord, and I will always be grateful to have known him as a friend – and look forward to when I see him again.”

New teachers welcomed to SISD by Chamber that Springtown would embrace and change them if they two new instructors while five would let it and she asked them are joining the Springtown Elto do four things in return. ementary faculty and one is “Shop Springtown” she said, added to the Special Education “It may cost you a little more, department. but we’ve got people whose Springtown Education Founlivelihoods are built in this dation Chairman and former community.”

“Besides, there is no place else to be on a Friday night,” Wilkerson said. “ “Worship in Springtown” Wilkerson said, proudly extolling the attributes of the town and the gathering with fellow residents within the community’s churches.

Finally, she said urged the new teachers to “defend Springtown” by rebuking criticisms and labels that may be associated with the community.

with their own money, and the checks could be used for whatever purpose their recipients deemed appropriate.

“We appreciate you coming to our district,” she said.

Best-selling author, international speaker, award-winning podcaster and radio guest Carrie Wilkerson addressed the new instructors and welcomed them to Springtown.

“I’m a proud, proud Springtown girl,” Wilkerson said. “I’m not wearing orange just because

of today; I’m wearing orange because it’s part of who I am.

“I’m looking out not only at fellow graduates, but also my first friend in Springtown, Diana Skaggs, my first employer here, John Conway, my first creditor, Mary Harms – she opened my first account at the flower shop when I was in the eighth grade,” she said. “I was a transplant here so I know coming in to an established community is a tough thing.”

“Springtown people are

friendly, friendly people, but the burden is kind of on you to make the effort and it’s possible.” Wilkerson continued.

She noted that in Springtown, teachers aren’t taken for granted.

“As a mom and a former teacher, we are your partners in this endeavor.” Wilkerson said.

“I don’t know if you are prepared (for our kids), but we’re going to trust you to prepare them for what’s next.”

She told the new instructors

you to defend Springtown until you believe it yourself and until we can prove it to you.” Wilkerson said.

“We want to welcome you to Springtown. Springtown is here to love you and we want you love Springtown back,” she said.

Author, speaker, and former teacher, Carrie Wilkerson welcomed the new teachers to the SISD and encouraged them to embrace Springtown in more ways than just teaching students.

Museum meeting to reveal area relics

By Natalie Gentry The Springtown Legends Museum will host its next meeting Aug. 28 at 7 p.m.

The presentation will include a variety of relics from the Springtown area, and a few from other parts of the country.

The Woody Ranch Melvin Woody and his wife Sheila live on a large ranch in the Veal Station area that has been in Woody’s family since the 1800s.

He has found numerous dart points and arrowheads on the property.

Woody’s most significant find was the discovery of the old road that went from Fort Worth to Jacksboro in the 1840s until the properties began to be fenced with barbed wire.

This road was used by settlers and the Indians and probably was a main route for soldiers going to Fort Richardson near Jacksboro.

Travelers on this road would camp near a creek, and they dug holes there to put some of

their belongings into.

Woody has found parts of wagon wheels, bridles, and many artifacts used by those travelers during that period.

He also found an item on a Revolutionary battlefield that he has been able to trace back to the individual who owned it.

He will reveal that item at his presentation.

Prehistoric weaponry Joe Elam has lived on his family ranch all of his life.

He and his brother, Ed, began collecting arrowheads on the ranch as children.

In recent years Elam continued his hunt for artifacts and has found a Clovis point that is quite rare for this area.

The prehistoric weapon dates back to 12,000 - 14,000 B.C. and was used to hunt the wooly mammoth.

It was unearthed in an area of the Elam property where arrowheads were not usually found.

Elam will display that find and some of the other arrowheads found on the property during the meeting.

April 2015. · These simultaneous work efforts are what we have been calling phase 1 of the Silver Creek Road projects. · During Phase 2, which is to begin in late 2015, Live Oak Creek Bridge will be reconstructed. Based upon today’s funding schedule, this will be the extent of the work for phase 2. · The current schedule for rehabilitation of the remainder

of Silver Creek Road, not addressed in phase 1, is scheduled as a phase 3 which would begin sometime in late 2017. The City Councilmember did indicate at the public meeting that it would be his intent to identify a source of funding from which to borrow so that this third phase could be accomplished in conjunction with and during the same time frame as the phase 2, Live Oak Creek Bridge replacement.

Clarification City of Fort Worth Transportation and Public Works Department Assistant Director Andy Anderson sent additional, detailed information concerning the News’ Aug. 6 story about construction on Silver Creek Road: · The Silver Creek Bridge, and 150 feet of pavement beyond each end of the Silver Creek Bridge, will be reconstructed as a part of the TxDOT

bridge project. That project is to begin in October 2014 and be completed in April of 2015. · The City of Fort Worth, possibly in conjunction with Tarrant County through an inter-local agreement, will be rehabilitating the Silver Creek Road pavement between the Silver Creek Bridge and the Live Oak Creek Bridge.

Optimists laud SHS duo Gum and Brouhard picked as top students by mark k. campbell Each month, the Springtown Optimist Club honors one male and one female senior from SHS for their achievements.

For the month of August, the Texan of the Month certificate went to Rhett Gum while the Texanne of the Month award was claimed by Lauren Brouhard.

Gum, son of Frank and Julie Gum, sits at No. 34 out of the SHS Class of 2015’s 209 students.

He has achieved A’s and B’s throughout his high school career with a 94.806 grade point average.

Gum keeps a busy extracurricular schedule.

He is the junior class representative and the student council secretary.

A member of the SHS FFA, he attended a Green Hand Camp as sophomore.

In sports, Gum plays golf, runs track, and is a defensive captain in football – quite a feat since he broke his back rodeoing as a sophomore and had to miss his junior football year.

Gum participates in his church’s activities like plays and mission trips, and he has worked at the Parker County Stock Show.

He plans on a military career after graduating SHS. First, Gum hopes to attend Texas A&M and join the Corps of Cadets there.

Then he plans on entering the Navy and eventually seeks to become a Navy SEAL. He said he hopes his legacy at SHS would be that he was a hard-worker who stood his ground for what he believed in and followed through when he said he would.

Brouhard is the daughter of Jason and Cheryl Brouhard.

She is No. 15 in the 2015 class with a 98.1 GPA. A member of the National Honor Society while carrying a heavy load of Advance Placement classes, Brouhard has maintained perfect attendance her first three years in high school.

She remains involved in student government. As a freshman Brouhard was the class secretary and she served as the sophomore class president.

Last year, she was the junior class secretary.

Brouhard has served on the student council her entire time at SHS. She is involved in cheerleading and has been on the varsity squad since 2013.

Brouhard’s sporting ventures include playing varsity soccer and tennis.

She is also a member of PALS (Peer Assistance and Leadership), TAFE (Texas Association of Future Educators), and FCCLA (Family, Career and Community Leaders of America).

Brouhard participates in church activities ranging from helping with children to leading youth at camps.

She plans on attending Tarleton State University and eventually becoming a pediatric oncology nurse.

Brouhard said she hopes her Rhett Gum and Lauren Brouhard were honored as the Textime at SHS will be remem- an and Texanne of the Month by the Springtown Optimist Photo by Mark K. Campbell bered for her high spiritedness. Club Aug. 19.

Good for you if you have a comfort zone

Y

ou’ve seen them up on the church stages: Teary-eyed folks sincerely telling parishioners how going on a mission trip changed them, how they “grew” by getting out of their “comfort zone.”

(The Bride frowns a lot when I suggest that would make a fun church drinking game [grape juice, of course] – whenever someone says “comfort zone.” [That generic phrase has replaced other classic church cliches like “hedge of protection” which supplanted “purpose-driven.”] ) We all have comfort zones, the good feeling you experience when you know your favorite restaurant is nearby, where the TV remote is handy, where you get the best cell phone reception.

But others have different comfort zones.

The Bride and I went with some other folks to vacation in Belize.

(Thank heaven for [other peoples’] timeshares.)

Things did not start out great.

The condo had seen better days. The water didn’t work sometimes. The seaweed infestation that has bedeviled the Texas coast is also terrorizing the numerous Belize islands, including ours at Ambergris Caye. It piles up all over and smells pretty bad.

The maid almost never showed up and she not once brought new towels.

Our bedroom was warmer than we’d like and there was no remote to the back TV. The pool was dead in the water. You had to walk all the way to the office to get WiFi, over 200 feet!

No crashing waves reached the thin

crushed coral beaches; you could barely walk out into the water because the seabed was thick with protected sea grass that serves as nurseries for the array of ON YOUR vast the fishes and MARK critters out on the reef – Mark K. Campbell a half-mile away.

There were loose dogs about and a toll bridge that cost $5 each time you ventured into town on the “main road,” all dirt.

And, oh yeah, a guy died in the con-

do across from us. (We were worried when hazmat-adorned personnel spent two days in room 201. It ended up being a poor fellow who finally drank himself to death, locals told us.)

Anyway, like with everyday life, you can choose to make your days good or bad.

Because we could, we ventured to Maya ruins, zipped up wide rivers, boated to a nearby island, and snorkeled the incredible reef on a trip that ended with a literal swim with a score of nurse sharks. (You know it’s “safe,” but when you get in that water with them, it’s still gut-check time.)

After one day of boating and swimming and eating, I took my “sugar Coke” (down there, they’re still the Real Thing; I had 15) and sat on the balcony to watch Belizean life pass by down on the main road.

That’s when the local kids – 5 to 10 years old, likely – showed up. Ten or so had gathered across the way, on the brief patch between the dirt road and the Caribbean Sea to practice soccer.

Their “field” was bumpy with clumps of grass and sandy stretches where the ball not once traveled smoothly.

Like they cared. They were having a blast; an example of pure joy was unfolding before me in the late afternoon light. They didn’t care about TV remotes or WiFi or seaweed.

They were in their comfort zones.

And, as I sipped my Coke, the bottle sweating in the tropical humidity, it made me think about mine for a while.

Mark K. Campbell is the Epigraph editor and tries to work in the multi-meaning, if cliched, “Bless your heart!” at church whenever possible.

years.

I thought about it for weeks and wished I had gone back to thank him.

This past Sunday we were there again and his whole family came in.

I hugged him and thanked him for paying for our dinner earlier.

He denied it while grinning.

My point is to everyone: “Do something nice for someone from your past who helped you.”

It will mean so much to them. I have and it feels so good.

Thank you again Wayne Sneed.

I drove a school bus for Springtown ISD 1975-1980 – one of best things I have ever done in my 77 years.

Recently my husband Joe and I had lunch after church at Howell's Cafe.

When we went to pay the cashier, she said your bill has already been paid.

A nice surprise for us and I immediately realized it had to have been a Barbara Sandlin-Sampson former bus rider who I had just talked to during lunch – one I hadn't seen in Springtown

Introduction to Davy Crockett’s autobiography, Part 3

W

ith a cordial invitation to enter the house, Crockett said: ‘You see, we are mighty rough here. I am afraid you will think it hard times, but we have to do the best we can. I started poor and have been mooting hog ever since; but d—n apologies, I hate ‘em; what I live upon always, I think a friend can stand for a day or two . . .’

“His cabin within was neat and clean, and bore about it many marks of comfort. The many trophies of wild animals spread over his house and yard – his dogs, in appearance warworn veterans, lying about sunning themselves – all told truly that I was in the home of the celebrated hunter . . .

“His wife was rather grave and quiet, but attentive and kind to strangers; his daughters diffident and retiring, perhaps too much so, but uncommonly beautiful . . . There are no schools

near them, yet they converse well. . .

The colonel has no slaves; his daughters attend to the dairy and kitchen, while he performs the more laborious duties of his farm.’

“Without doubt these pages present the real David Crockett, for, by great good fortune, the writer of them was invited to go with the hunter to a shooting match, so that in the chapter which follows the reader may not only read a detailed description of a genuine old-fashioned backwoods rifle tournament, but may also see the most celebrated hunter of his day in action – the Robin Hood of the Canebrake. It is the most vivid, detailed, and convincing picture of a shooting match known to me. It is as if a careful modern reporter had seen it and recorded it, but the story, so valuable for its detail, is buried in a forgotten book. The unknown is to be pardoned if he favors his hero a little, for in his account Crockett was easily, proudly, negligently the victor.

The picture here drawn restores the graceful, masterful figure of the member of Congress from ‘the Great Shakes. . .’

“At dawn on the sixth of March, 1836, HISTORICAL Crockett with undaunted HIGHLIGHTS five companions Laurie Moseley was captured by General Castrillon of the Mexican army. With a bloody bandage around his brow (he had been slashed by a saber) Crockett and his companions stood behind a barricade of those who had fallen before their weapons. Castrillon, moved by a soldier’s admiration for a brave enemy, took them before Santa Anna.

They were all that was left of the defenders of the Alamo.

“The steady, fearless step and undaunted tread of Colonel Crockett on this occasion, together with the bold demeanor of the hardy veteran, had a powerful effect on all present ...Castrillon addressed his excellency: ‘Sir, here are six prisoners I have taken alive; how shall I dispose of them? Santa Anna looked at Castrillon fiercely, flew into a violent rage, and replied, ‘Have I not told you before how to dispose of them? Why do you bring them to me? At the same time his brave officers plunged their swords into the bosoms of their defenceless prisoners. Colonel Crockett, seeing the act of treachery, instantly sprang like a tiger at the ruffian chief, but before he could reach him a dozen swords were sheathed in his indomitable heart; and he fell, and died without a groan, a frown on his brow, and a smile of scorn and defiance on his lips.

“Whether precisely true to the historic fact or not, this passage – taken from the apocryphal and posthumous work called Col. Crockett’s Exploits and Adventures in Texas – remains the only account of the great woodsman’s death, and it is in character. He was among Travis’s forces, and he fell with them: so much we know. Only one woman and a negro survived to give the story of the Alamo to the world.

All other history must come from the testimony of Santa Anna and his men.

“Whether a monument exists to mark the place of Crockett’s burial or not I am unable to say, but he has no need of it. His fame, like that of Daniel Boone, is securely woven into the history of the Border, and with all his faults he will remain an almost perfect embodiment of the American trailmaker.”

Grand jury indicts governor on 2 counts

A

Travis County grand jury on Aug. 15 indicted Gov. Rick Perry on two felony counts: abuse of official capacity and coercion of a public servant.

Count I alleges Perry, on or about June 14, 2013, intended to harm Rosemary Lehmberg, Travis County district attorney and chief of the state’s Public Integrity Unit, by intentionally or knowingly misusing public property in withholding funding approved by the Texas Legislature for the operation of the Public Integrity Unit.

Count II alleges Perry by means of coercion and in his official capacity as a public servant threatened to veto legislation funding the Public Integrity Unit unless Lehmberg resigned as district attorney.

Lehmberg was arrested for drunken driving in April 2013.

She served a short jail sentence, publicly apologized, underwent counseling and returned to her elected post as district attorney and chief of the Public Integrity Unit, a division of the district attorney’s office that investigates and prosecutes criminal activity involving state government and state government officials.

Lehmberg refused to resign.

Perry reacted with a line-item veto of the funding approved for the Public Integrity Unit ($7.5 million) in the state’s 2014-2015 general appropriations bill, SB 1. Perry explained the veto this way: “Despite the otherwise good work the Public Integrity Unit's employees, I cannot in good conscience support continued State funding for an office with statewide jurisdiction at a time when the person charged with ultimate responsibility of that unit has lost the public's confidence .

This unit is in no other way held accountable to state taxpayers, except through the State budgetary process. I therefore object to and disapprove of this appropriation.”

Mary Anne Wiley, general

counsel for Perry, issued a statement saying, “The veto in question was made in accord a n c e with the STATE veto authority CAPITAL HIGHLIGHTS afforded to every Ed Sterling governor under the Texas Constitution. We will continue to aggressively defend the governor's lawful and constitutional action, and believe we will ultimately prevail.”

Panel votes for censure The House Select Committee on Transparency in State Agency Operations on Aug. 11 met and voted 6-1 to admonish and censure University of Texas System Board of Regents member Wallace L. Hall Jr. of Dallas “for misconduct, incompetency in the performance of official duties, or behavior unbefitting a nominee for and holder of a state office.” State Rep. Charles Perry, R-Lubbock, voted against the action.

Hall, who was appointed as a regent by Gov. Perry in 2011, reportedly has been conducting an independent investigation of UT’s fundraising and other activities. Allegations against Hall are detailed in a motion 28 pages in length.

The motion also directs two of members of the committee, state Reps. Lyle Larson, R-San Antonio, and Trey MartinezFischer, D-San Antonio, to monitor the Board of Regents of The University of Texas System, The University of Texas System and The University of Texas System component institutions.

Notes get highest ratings State Comptroller Susan Combs on Aug. 12 announced

R.I.P. ‘Brother John’

Wall Street’s three biggest credit rating agencies have given their highest ratings to Texas’ 2014 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes.

These annual, one-year notes, Combs explained, are sold to help fund school payments and manage cash flow between the start of the fiscal year and the arrival of tax revenue later in the year.

Combs said the ratings reflect confidence in Texas and its economic growth. The state’s sale of $5.4 billion in Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes will be conducted Aug. 26 with repayment scheduled Aug. 31, 2015, she added.

Economy adds jobs in July Texas Workforce Commission on Aug. 15 announced the state’s economy added 46,600 seasonally adjusted non-farm jobs in the month of July and the unemployment rate was 5.1 percent in July, while the national unemployment rate was 6.2 percent.

Texas employers have added 396,200 jobs over the last year, a 3.5 percent annual growth rate, said Andres Alcantar, chair of Texas Workforce Commission. “The Texas economic engine is strong, with every major industry posting positive annual growth in July,” Alcantar added.

Also, all of the major industries in Texas expanded during July, with professional and business services adding 10,600 jobs in the month.

RRC elects Craddick chair Christi Craddick of Midland on Aug. 12 was elected chair of the three-member Texas Railroad Commission, the state agency that oversees the regulation of the oil and gas industry.

She succeeds fellow member Barry Smitherman at the post.

Letter to the Editor ‘Children have no voice’ I worked on the Rio Grande approximately ten years ago, mapping hydrilla (an invasive aquatic plant) that was impacting flows in the river. In the course of my work, I witnessed many people crossing the river, from large groups of women and children to one person crossing in a tube. I saw armed men in areas where some people were crossing, although we were left alone. During that time, I never saw a child alone crossing into the United States.

Times have changed!

Children have no voice.

For several years, the United States has been embroiled in a battle about immigration. Our borders are not completely secure. Drugs and drug runners, criminals with violent tendencies have crossed our borders and endangered our country.

Republicans accuse Democrats and the White House of not addressing the problem, and securing the border while Democrats and the president have pushed for immigration legislation that goes nowhere in Congress.

out a hug. He was genuine when he embraced you, too.

You hear about people who fill up a room when they enter – that was John. It was like trying to contain a Macy’s Thanksgiving Day balloon when he walked in; his presence filled wherever he was.

And that includes away from church.

He supported this town and the school district and the kids like no one else.

And he was hands-on, vividly living the Christian life he preached.

I bet heaven’s still undergoing a John hugathon.

Like everyone else, I was stunned to hear that Johnnie “Brother John” Conway had died.

I knew him pre-Hilltop Family Church. The little church we attended together – called Rolling Hills Baptist back then, between Springtown and Weatherford on Highway 51; it’s Harvest Hills now – actually started Hilltop.

John took the reins there and Hilltop exploded like a rocket.

That’s God’s doing of course, but He had quite the willing worker in John. Good luck escaping from him with-

In the last few years – although it has only been in the last months that the media has started focusing on the issue – children fleeing from violence in their home countries (mainly Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala) have been crossing our borders in the thousands.

Many are alone. They have walked, ridden buses, or whatever means to escape the violence of their country and find a new life in the United States.

They have fled from drugs, rape, gangs that have murdered family members and threatened their lives. Honduras has the highest murder rate in the world. They have come to the United States in search of freedom, peace, family, and survival.

The United States Department of State says: “A refugee is someone who has fled from his or her country and cannot return because he or she has a well-founded fear of persecution based on religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group or because they are fleeing a war.” (http://www. state.gov/j/prm/ra) While some in the United States have welcomed them as refugees (which they are), most have consigned them to the general name of illegal immigrant, lumping them

together with the true criminal element that does cross our border. They have refused to recognize that these children are true refugees.

While I agree our borders need to be secure against the violent and the criminal that come to the United States to prey on our citizens, I think that for children – refuge children – we should remember, the ideals on which the United States was founded. We are a county of immigrants and refugees. That is our strength, our pride, and our foundation. We fought a war, the Revolutionary War, to create our country, the United States of America,; many of our forebearers were also refugees.

Remember the first words immigrants and refugees see when they enter New York Harbor written on the Statue of Liberty: “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, Tempest-tossed, to me; I lift my lamp beside the golden door.” I think that certainly fits children that just travelled hundreds of miles, some walking, fleeing from death and violence in their native country.

SPORTS

V’ball ladies up and down by mark k. campbell The volleyball season, even this early on, has been a bumpy one for Leighann Strickland’s Lady Porcupines.

Springtown (4-5) opened the season with a 1-3 loss at Weatherford on Aug. 12 as plenty of new players began to fit in.

Leading the way was veteran Brooklyn Dauenhauer with 15 kills, 11 assists, and 9 digs.

Gabby Terry blocked 4 balls and Sydney Farris carded 11 assists.

Two days later, SHS ventured to Grandview for the first tourney of the year, and Springtown topped Alvarado 25-14, 16-25, 25-22.

Dauenhauer led with 13 kills, Farris had 12 assists, Mackensie Martin dug out 17 and served 5 aces, and Ashton Weaver was tops with 3.5 blocks.

Later that Aug. 14, Springtown swept Waco Connally 2519, 25-18 with Martin serving 3 aces to go with 11 digs.

A third match was another 2-0 win for SHS, 25-10, 25-21 over China Springs. Farris had 9 assists, 4 digs, 2 aces, and a kill.

Back home for a day, the Lady Porcupines headed for Peaster and fell 14-25, 22-25, 14-25. Dauenhauer shone with 17 kills, 4 assists, and 9 digs.

In the resumption of the Grandview tourney Aug. 16, Leon beat SHS 0-2.

Springtown got back in the win column with a slugfest victory over Grandview, 2325, 25-22, 28-26. Weaver’s 12 kills was tops; Dauenhauer and Farris combined for 27 assists (14/13) and the former dug out 15 balls.

The final bracket play game in Grandview was a 1-3 loss to Waco University. Weaver again led in kills, this time with 8.

On Aug. 19, the Lady Porcupines traveled to Fort Worth to play Paschal and lost 1-3.

Strickland said, “We have some good things happening; we just need to find the consistency with it and push.

“We picked up our blocks and were able to get more touches on the ball [against Paschal],” she added.

NEXT UP – Springtown travels to Glen Rose for a tournament Aug. 21 and 23. In between, on Friday, Aug. 22, local fans can finally see the Lady Porcupines play at home,

One scrimmage down, one to go for Porcupines New coach sees good things at Sanger by mark k. campbell After several days of hitting each other, the Porcupine football teams – under new coach Brian Hulett – loaded up and traveled to Sanger for the year’s first scrimmage.

The aggressive hosts took the Springtown varsity aback initially, the coach recalled.

“They hit us in the mouth from the start,” he said.

The good news was that the Porcupines bounced right back.

“The great thing is we didn’t back down but responded,” Hulett said.

In fact, Springtown “won” the live quarter of play, 7-0, allowing SHS to “leave with confidence.”

Hulett said, “We still have a ton of work to do, but to see our kids respond the way they did was an encouraging sign.”

The scrimmage highlighted positives and “areas of needed improvement,” the coach said.

Hulett noted that practices allow for focusing on those areas, “on getting better at them on the practice field, each and every day.”

The coach said the junior varsity has “really good depth” and that led to a “really good scrimmage” against Sanger.

This time it was Springtown

SUBVARSITIES – The SHS JV (0-1) tumbled to Weatherford 18-25, 25-21, 15-25.

Coach Hannah Adams said the squad has “a lot to work on.” Injuries are also setting the JV back, she noted.

Top players were Jill Ray (4 assists, 3 aces), Taylor Keith (11 digs), Kierstin Williams (3 kills), and Kaytie Andrews (12 digs).

“Hopefully, when everyone is healthy, we can get in a game,” Adams said.

The 9th (1-2) lost to Weatherford 15-25, 25-19, 20-25.

Leading the frosh were Adeli Gonzales (6 aces), Hannah

Downes (8 digs), and Jordan Babcock (1 block, 2 assists).

Peaster swept the young Lady Porcupines. Babcock’s 5 kills, Downes’ 3 aces, and Karlee Eddy’s 5 assists were tops.

Coach Mallory Daniel said SHS “struggled with our serve receive and defense.”

The first victory of 2014 came at Paschal, 23-25, 2519, 25-18. Serving 3 aces each were Lexy Burt, Haylee Klein, and Eddy. Kennedy Sonne and Babcock both got 2 kills each.

“We got off to a slow start but got it together after game one.

We passed really well and that was the key,” Daniel recalled.

New football coach Brian Hulett will lead SHS against Bridgeport Thursday, Aug. 21 at 6:30 p.m. at Porcupine Stadium in the final scrimmage.

Photo by Mark K. Campbell that got out fast over their opponent. And, while the young Porcupines “somewhat faded toward the end,” Hulett said the game provided coaches with areas that need improvement.

“Having a good JV is vital to our program,” Hulett said.

“We have made a huge effort to get not only our JV kids but the ninth graders as well better from the first day of practice.”

He added that having depth at the two squads leads to a quality program year in and year out.

“We look forward each and every day to working with these two teams,” Hulett said.

The freshman Porcupines faced a “very good” Sanger team.

“We feel like we did some good things but also found some areas we need to improve on,” the coach said.

“Our freshmen are a good group of kids who will improve each week this year,” he added.

About the build up to the season openers, Hulett said, “Everything is going well. We have a long ways to go, but our kids’ attendance, attitude, and effort are where they need to be.

“What we put on the field on ‘game’ night is a product of the hard work that is put in during the work week. We are extremely excited to hit the practice field each day with that thought in mind.”

Such consistency is key: “If we keep doing those things, good things will happen,” HuDefensive coordinator Tony Cavalier is one of several lett said. new coaches on the SISD roster.

Six SHS sports get new head coaches this year 10 coaches and a new head trainer have been hired by mark k. campbell The hiring dust is settling as the new school year looms and there are plenty of new faces that will be seen around Springtown ISD sporting venues.

Eleven new hires will have a direct impact on student-athletes – 10 coaches and a trainer.

Six sports have new head coaches.

Brian Hulett will direct the Porcupine football team; he hails from Eastland where he assembled a successful program.

Trent Davis, over from Azle, is the head coach of boys and girls soccer and cross country.

He said 39 runners showed up for an early cross country practice, a substantial rise from previous years.

Scott Mann replaces Amy Balke as the Lady Porcupine softball coach. He coached at Yoakum earlier.

Jim Lemons, who came over Trent Davis will lead boys and girls soccer and cross country this year.

Photo by Mark K. Campbell with Hulett from Eastland, will

lead the boys powerlifting squad.

Finally, Tye Adams, a Springtown ISD veteran, will take the helm of the Porcupine wrestling team, replacing David Brokenshire who had taken over for Carl Hornback the previous season.

Longtime SISD head trainer Brent Haugen is now an assistant principal at the high school. His position has been filled by Javier Errisuriz.

Several new coaches will be assisting with football including Stacey Alexander, Tony Cavalier, Pat Hall (assigned to the middle school), Lemons, Mann, Barry Mathis (also at SMS), Ryan McNeely, and Cullen Ricks.

The other new coach is Kelly Irvin; she will assist with girls basketball and softball.

Coaches have multiple duties. Cavalier will also assist in track and powerlifting.

Mathis will assist in softball, McNeely will help out in track,

For the third year in a row, Springtown will have a different wrestling coach. This year it will be Tye Adams, who also assists with football.

Photo by Mark K. Campbell and Ricks will assist Adams in wrestling.

The other head coaching jobs remain unchanged.

Stan Gideon will lead baseball. The boys and girls hoops squads will be directed by James Rike and Susan Croft, respectively. Rike will also stay

Missy Castro will continue building the successful Lady Porcupine powerlifting program.

Other veterans back: Ron Elston (tennis); Brad Legan (boys track); Hannah Adams (girls track); and Leighann Strickland (volleyball).

Movie Man

Old Expendables soon to become Dependables?

Well, you can’t blame a guy for trying.

Sylvester Stallone has been churning out movies as he approaches the latter stage of his life. And a slew of them just haven’t been embraced.

About the film With a couple of exceptions, Stallone has had an astonishing stretch of snubbed movies. That duo of accepted films – Rocky Balboa (2006, Movie Man No. 698, 6) and The Expendables (2010, MM #892, 6).

But the series of misfires is near-amazing. His last bona fide hit was Cliffhanger in 1993. Since then, it’s been 20 years of almost constant hohummery from the public.

Excluding animated voicings and small parts in other (bad) movies, here’s his filmography the last two decades: The Specialist (1994, an anticipated teaming with Sharon Stone that flopped, $57.4 million) Judge Dredd (1995, $34.7 million, and don’t get the fanboys going on how much they hate this movie) Assassins (1995, $30.3 million) Daylight (1996, $32.9 million) Cop Land (1997, $44.9 million, his last good reviews) Get Carter (2000, $15 million, a major misfire at the time) Driven (2001, MM #402, 4, $32.6 million) Eye See You (2002, a $55 million movie that was barely released, originally called D-Tox, made $79.1 thousand – yes, thousand) Avenging Angelo (2002, went straight to video) Rambo (2008, MM #756, 5, $42.8 million) The Expendables 2 (2012, MM #996, 5, $85 million on a $92 million budget) Bullet to the Head (2012, $9.5 million) Escape Plan (2013, MM #1058, 7, $25.1 million)

Grudge Match (2013, $29.8 million).

A couple of things: While the amount of money a movie makes doesn’t mean it’s good or bad, Stallone has a recent history of not coming close to making back budgets domestically – not even halfway. Also, action movies do much better overseas often, so it’s not like he’s a colossal failure.

Despite all this, the Movie Man remains a Stallone fan.

He will never forget one of the greatest movie evenings ever when he went to a sneak preview (back when sneak previews were great mysteries), seeing Rocky (again) and the sneak, Annie Hall in 1977.

You had to be there to appreciate the explosion Stallone made on the scene with that first boxing movie. He was nominated for two Oscars – Best Actor and Best Screenplay (for Rocky) joining only Orson Welles and Charlie Chaplin in pulling that same-year double.

So if he’s still punching late in life, he deserves some slack.

The film (spoilers) Barney (Stallone) still has a few of his Expendable team members around and they bust out a former Ex, Doc (Wesley Snipes), from a moving train.

On another mission, the group gets a member seriously hurt, shot by Stonebanks (Mel Gibson), another ex-Expendable who turned evil; Stallone thought Gibson was dead, but he ain’t.

The CIA shows up in the person of Drummer (Harrison Ford). The agency has a 36hour window when they know where Gibson will be and Ford charges Stallone and his team to capture Gibson alive.

Stallone, worried that his mates are getting a little long in the tooth and need to get out of the mercenary business, cuts them free and recruits a new batch of young ‘uns found by old pal Bonaparte (Kelsey

... on a scale of 1-10

Movie Man Grammer) across the globe.

The new crew gets Gibson, but the wily fellow escapes with all of Stallone’s recruits hostage. So, the old Ex gang reunites to aid Stallone in fetching his newbies and taking care of Gibson.

What works (spoiler) As actors, Gibson, Ford, Grammer, and, yes, Stallone blow the others out of the water. Gibson, of course, has that wild-eyed, manic, motormouth, crazy guy routine down pat and it’s effective here.

There’s a nice scene where Stallone is laying out his plan to storm the building Gibson has entered. But the newbies are high-tech savvy and create a scheme that requires not nearly as much mayhem – and it works to a T. It’s hard to dis any movie that manages to work in Neil Young’s “Old Man.” It’s obvious and corny – and classic Stallone – when the young bucks serenade the veterans, but it works.

Best scene Director Patrick Hughes often frames the old-timers in super close-ups. There’s a long take of the camera just staying on Stallone that details the toll of all those years of action movies (and Botox). Ford and Gibson get screen-filling shots,

too. They are mesmerizing.

What doesn’t work Every young actor is completely forgettable. And the acting by the lone female, Ronda Rousey, has to be seen to be believed; she’s horrible.

The Expendables 3 is jampacked with rapid-fire editing that makes keeping up with what’s going on pretty tough – especially in the endless concluding battle.

There might be plenty of Old School, macho-man bon mots in the movie, but so many actors mumble – something Ford’s character calls out Jason Statham for in the movie but all are guilty – that they can’t be

discerned.

The movie goes on and on and on. It’s a laborious 2 hours, 6 minutes and seems even longer. After the 10,000th explosion, interest fades.

The rating There’s the violence and some blood, of course. Factor in an f-bomb or two (that mumbling again) with classic vulgarities and you have a hard PG-13.

Summing up Next up The Expendables 3 tanked at Sin City: A Dame to Kill For the box office, finishing fourth which had a cool trailer before with a meager $16.2 million, Expendables 3. behind two movies already in theaters. A fourth in the series has been “announced” but that remains to be seen. If 3 takes off overseas, another could arrive.

Summer review The Movie Man made his Big Summer Predictions back in late April, daring to try to nail down what the top 10 movies of the summer would be.

His guesses: 10. A Million Ways to Die in the West; 9.

Guardians of the Galaxy; 8.
