Four injured in fiery La Junta accident by carla noah stutsman Four people were injured – one seriously – in a two vehicle accident Monday, Sept. 29 at the intersection of SH 199 and South Reno Road. Initial reports at about 12:45 p.m. indicating that one of the vehicles was on fire drew an almost instant response from nearby La Junta Volunteer Fire Department, whose personnel quickly put the flames out. According to Senior Trooper Dub Gillum with the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), Jeanne Valone, 66, Gabriel Scott, 18, and Justin Starr, age unknown but believed to be a teenager, were transported to area hospitals, where they were treated and released later the same day. Morgan Makin, 14, was transported to John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth,

where she was being treated for serious injuries late Monday, Gillum said. Based on information gathered by investigating DPS Trooper C. Markin, Gillum said the accident occurred when a blue Buick Century driven by Scott failed to stop at a stop sign while southbound on South Reno Road. Starr and Makin were passengers in the Buick. Valone was alone in a white Ford SUV traveling west on SH 199 when the Buick entered the highway and she was unable to avoid hitting the car. The Buick caught fire, but the three teenagers inside were able to crawl out. None of their injuries were caused by fire, Gillum said. Gillum could not confirm whether charges will be filed regarding the accident.

AISD enrollment up by carla noah stutsman Enrollment is up in the Azle Independent School District (AISD), and that means a lot more than just more students. According to AISD Finance Director Monica Miller, it also means more funds coming into the district. Miller said that at the end of the 2013-2014 school year, 5,902 students were enrolled in the district. As of this week, a total of 6,131 students are enrolled in the ten campuses that comprise the AISD. That’s an increase of 229 students. However, the Texas Education Agency (TEA) looks at a “snapshot” date – the last Friday in October each year – as a barometer for attendance. “Last year’s enrollment on the snap-

shot date was 5,952, which is 50 more students than at the end of the school year,” Miller said. “That’s typical – we don’t necessarily understand why, but it’s not unusual for the numbers to change after October.” The TEA then allocates each district in the state a dollar amount per student, per school year. In the AISD, that dollar amount is $7,002. Some of those funds come from local property taxes, while some come from the state. It gets even more complicated. Miller explained the district receives the funds based upon its Weighted Daily Average Attendance (WADA), which is typically about 95 percent of Firefighters, paramedics and EMTs attend to three teenagers injured Monday afternoon in a twovehicle crash at the intersection of SH 199 and South Reno Road between Azle and Springtown.

Marching Green Pride

Showtime in Saginaw! The Marching Green Pride earned Azle and Boswell fans’ applause and cheers when the AHS band performed its new show – The Greatest Show on Turf – in full costume at the Take the Lake game in Saginaw. The whirling program contained not only an array of dancers and circus performers like a bearded lady, a strongman, and a drum horse, but the traditional skilled Marching Green Pride maneuvers the group is renown for. And, oh, yeah, a dance-off between a clown and a lion. The band will again perform the show this Friday night when Azle hosts Saginaw in only the second game of the year at Hornet Field this season.

Laundry incident foiled by bystanders, Azle Police by carla noah stutsman A young boy and his mother were shaken up Sept. 26 after a man attempted to kidnap the boy from a local business. According to Azle Police Detective Sgt. Kevin Rogers, officers were dispatched to a physical disturbance at the Quick Wash self-service laundry on Industrial Avenue about 6:30 p.m. While en route to the disturbance, officers learned that a man was assaulting a woman and trying to take

her young child. When officers arrived, a white man in the parking lot began yelling to them that Al Qaeda operatives were trying to kidnap a young boy inside the business. The man told officers the woman was not the boy’s mother, but she was trying to kidnap the boy and had locked him inside a bathroom inside the business. Then he urged officers to go inside and get the child.

Eventually, Rogers said, the man admitted he had tried to take the child from the woman, believing her to be a member of Al Qaeda working with aliens who were trying to kidnap the boy. Two people inside the business who witnessed the incident told officers they had seen the man pacing back and forth while talking to himself and noticed that the woman brought her young son closer to her because of the man’s odd behavior.

This Week in Azle History

One woman took the boy into a restroom, closed the door and stood guard outside to prevent the man from getting to him. The other witness, a man, placed himself between the man and the bathroom in an attempt to protect the boy. Officers called a translator to the scene to assist in gathering information because of a language barrier. The translator helped them determine that the boy’s mother actually

fought with the man to prevent him from taking her son. At one point, the man knocked her to the ground and kicked her. She suffered several scratches on her arms while fighting with the man, as well. The man was placed in handcuffs and transported to a Fort Worth hospital for evaluation. His identity is not being released pending charges being filed in the incident.

Enrollment increase: more teachers, funds n ENROLLMENT, FROM PAGE ONE

total enrollment. She projects the AISD’s revenue based upon enrollment from the end of the prior school year. At its current enrollment of 6,131, multiplied by a 95 percent WADA rate, the district stands to receive $7,002 each for 179 students over and above the 5,902 Miller budgeted for. That’s an increase to district funding of about $1.25 million. But it’s not all gravy. To date, the AISD has hired an additional four teachers to accommodate the increase in students, Miller said. The increase in students also costs the district more in areas besides personnel, including utilities, transportation, and supplies. The district’s open enroll-

ment policy, first implemented in the 2013-2014 school year, has no doubt added to the increase to some degree. Current enrollment reflects 136 out-of-district transfers, Miller said, but many of those were also enrolled last school year. Miller credits the AISD’s outstanding teaching staff that put kids first, strong emphasis on student engagement, lower average class size, 1:1 iPad initiative, and other advancements in technology as well as its updated facilities as possible reasons for the increase in enrollment. “There are a lot of good things going on in our schools Once again, Azle Rotarians gave every Azle ISD third grader a dictionary. Here, charter member Bobby Boyd – it’s just a good time to be in passes them out at Eagle Heights Elementary – the same school where he was principal in 1971-72. For some students, the dictionary will be the only book they personally own. Photo by Mark K. Campbell Azle,” Miller said.

Wanted: Munchkins! Auditions slated for minor roles in AHS production of The Wizard of Oz by carla noah stutsman The Drama Department at Azle High School has announced its annual production for 2014 will be The Wizard of Oz. The musical will be presented to the public in the AHS auditorium Dec. 12-14. The beloved story was made famous first in the book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, written by L. Frank Baum and originally published in 1900, and brought to life “in Technicolor” in the 1939 MetroGoldwyn-Meyer (MGM) film starring Judy Garland as Dorothy. According to Drama Boosters President Randa Goode, auditions for the main roles were conducted Sept. 22-26 and the official cast and crew were announced Friday, Sept. 26. But they still need Munchkins. And, of course, Toto. Auditions for 30 Munchkins characters will be conducted from 6-8:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 9 in the AHS auditorium. Students who attend any of Azle ISD’s elementary or middle schools are eligible to audition. The ideal cast members will be able to sing (with a group) in front of a crowd. An audition application can be found at www.azledrama.com/ forms. AHS Drama Department Director Tia Moen hopes to cast the role of Toto – as well as an understudy – to an actual dog. “Auditions on Oct. 28 are open to anyone who would be willing to have their trained dog as part of the show,” Moen said. “The owners must provide their dog’s current vaccination record.” The exact time as well as further details for Toto auditions are forthcoming in the News and at www.azledrama. com. “This year’s production will be above and beyond what Azle is used to,” Goode said. “In fact, the characters of Glenda, the Wicked Witch, the flying monkeys and even

Dorothy will ‘fly’ during the production (flying effects provided by ZFX, Inc.).” “We cannot express how excited we are to produce such an iconic play, and based on the reactions we’ve seen so far, we believe the community is excited as well,” Moen said. “What an amazing amount of talent we have here at AHS – more than 110 students auditioned for either cast or tech!” “This show is going to be the best one ever to hit Azle High School,” she added. What else would you expect from a play produced by MGM (that’s Moen, Gantt and McCartney)? Cast and crew Major cast members for the production include Dorothy (Mia Gordy, with Ally Simpson as understudy and performing in the Saturday matinee); Aunt Em (Ashlee McDonald); Uncle Henry (Josh Surratt); Zeke (Jacob Jones); Hickory (Bryson Ingle); Hunk (Jason Heminger); Miss Almira Gulch (Eden Ware); and Professor Marvel (Elisabeth Sloan). Once in the Land of Oz, characters will include: Munchkin leaders (Zoe Green, Emmaleigh Ballard, Lauren Ballard and Lydia Bazan); Glinda (Brielle Gilchrist); Witch (Taylor May); Scarecrow (Garrett Gibbons); Tinman (Peyton Smith); Lion (Julie Waldock); Oz Guard (Alexander Roddy); and the Wizard of Oz (Dylan Yeats). Rounding out the cast are: Lauren Banker, Rebecca Crabtree, Kat Harville, Jose Aldaco, Brendan Wreay, Averie Womack, Madison Peterson, Madison McGrath, Brittany Leonard, Hannah Holmes, Jamie Stephens, Shelbi Burgett, Deborah Burkhalter, Sarah Lee, Brittany Maxwell, Bryce Meason, Evan Zohne, Kendall York, Alex Burgess, Samantha Jobe and Kendall Wilson. Crew members include director Moen; choir director Brent McCartney; technical director Larry Gantt; stage

AISD construction on course All three bond-OK’d phases underway by mark k. campbell At the weekly Azle Rotary Club meeting, Todd Smith, Azle ISD’s director of district operations, told the gathering that construction is on schedule at the high school. In 2013, voters approved a bond for a new competition gym, a career and technology center, and the installation of a sprinkler system throughout AHS. All are well underway, Smith said. Back on July 10, the AISD got the go-ahead to begin construction. The gym, which will house 2,113 people in its 35,281 square feet, is going up near the old gym on the north side of the main campus building. Eventually, the facility will

The CTE Center will house a large number of specialty subjects including an auto shop, an auto trainer lab, an auto classroom, an ag shop with two classrooms, a floral lab, a vet lab, an industrial arts classroom, a Health Science classroom, a patient care lab, and a microbiology lab. The building on the west side of the campus will cover 45,017 square feet. The next major hurdle for the CTE Center is an electrical pad that Oncor hopes to install Oct. 10, Smith said. For a while that evening – weather permitting – the power

will be cut off to the entire high school, Smith said. The sprinkler system is being installed during off hours at AHS, Smith said. Workers are inside the school “running pipe” nightly from about 6 p.m. to 4 a.m., Smith said. The completion date for the sprinkler system is Christmas. Smith said both the gym and CTE Center are still on pace for their original projected dates, August 2015. After the buildings are set, Smith said landscaping – that will include the new parking lot near Boyd Road – will be coordinated for “curb appeal.” That will include moving the old AHS sign up to the roadway, he noted.

“The Greatest Show on Turf”

The Marching Green Pride performed its current show in costume for the first time in Saginaw when Azle played Boswell. Photos by Mark K. Campbell

First UMC to offer contemporary service Beginning at 9:45 a.m. this Sunday, Oct. 5, First United Methodist Church of Azle will offer a contemporary praise and worship service. The informal gathering, an alternative to FUMC’s 8:30 a.m. blended service and 11 a.m. traditional service, will be called The Bridge to emphasize the importance of making connections with God and others, according to Senior Pastor Dr. Scott Youngblood. “We invite those who are searching for a place to belong,” Youngblood said. “We Bryson Ingle, Nate Starmer, Judy Sheridan, Dean Smith, Ken Leemon and Collin (l-r) practice for The Bridge, a new service that begins at 9:45 a.m. Sunday, care about people, and we want Giles Oct. 5 at First United Methodist Church of Azle. to introduce them to Jesus and equip them to make a difference in the world.” Music at the hour-long service will be contemporary, with keyboard, electric guitar, drums and bass, and participants will have a chance to share how God has worked in their lives during the week. A flexible format allows the opportunity to introduce new elements regularly to keep things fresh, Youngblood said, while small groups afterward will give those who attend a chance to ask questions about the sermon. Dress is casual. First United Methodist of Azle is located at 200 Church Street, near the Rock School. For more information, please call 444-3323.

Boswell Takes the Lake, 36-28 Hornet rally falls short

by mark k. campbell Every game can be a game of “almost” but that was especially true in the football Hornets’ 36-28 loss to Boswell Sept. 26. Azle (3-1, 0-1) almost • intercepted two passes • recovered two fumbles • got an onsides kick • caught a Hail Mary But those aerials were dropped and the fumbles went to Pioneers, including an onsides kick that almost worked to perfection. The Hail Mary from AHS QB Jamie King actually reached the hands of a Hornet, but the low ball was too difficult to corral. When it was all said and done, the Pioneers won the resumption of the Take the Lake rivalry game. Boswell jumped out to a 13-0 lead when a TD drive – that was scored on a third down and long, Azle coach Devon Dorris noted – was followed up by a short kickoff that was not covered by AHS. The Hornets began to reel in Boswell before a packed house in Saginaw. King scored on a 2-yard run and when Azle held Bos to a field goal, Chase Smith, who would rush for 154 yards, dashed over from the 9. He would score twice more – on a run and a pass – but AHS struggled to catch up. Smith’s final score, a 6-yard Hornet Trevor Boiles hauls in a long pass in Saginaw against Boswell in the Take the Lake game. Azle scored on the next play but lost the contest in the District 5-5A opener for each. Photo by Mark K. Campbell pass from King, drew Azle to

The onsides kick looked like a winner, but one Pioneer beat three Hornets to the ball. Still, with a solid defensive stand and judicious use of time outs, Azle got the ball back. As time expired, King hurled a ball that was tipped by a Boswell defensive back, however the awaiting Hornets could not snag the pigskin. Dorris said, “It’s a testament to the kids that we battled back. They gutted it out and got back into the game.” The Azle coach lauded the defense for holding Boswell to field goals and allowing the offense to rally. Dorris recalled that AHS swept down the field to open the second half and scored with ease on all running plays. “That gave us a chance; we never quit,” he said. And Azle rallied...almost.

Lady Hornets split District 5-5A matches to stay in playoff hunt Hannah Boyd and Brooke The Lady Hornet volleyball team – in one of the tougher Smith killed 2 balls each. Falling behind 1-2 in games, districts around – remains in playoff position after going 1-1 Azle’s kill total rose to 10 with Boyd getting 3 and Kaitlyn in recent district games. Ford 2.

Azle’s 3-1 5-5A mark stood for three days. At Boswell Sept. 26, the Lady Hornets fell 19-25, 14-24, 13-25. An important game awaits for AHS when Saginaw comes to the Azle gym Friday, Oct. 3. That match will mark the end of the first round of district action. SUBVARSITY – The AHS JV was busy. Azle lost to Chisholm Trail 0-2 then fell to Boswell. On Sept. 27, the Lady Hornets played in a Chisholm Trail tourney and won some matches. AHS beat Northwest 15-13, 15-11 and Glen Rose 15-11, 15-11. After a 3-game loss to Boswell, Azle defeated Liberty Christian 2-0 before falling to LD Bell. Coach Jason Beck said, “They played hard and never gave up.”

ACS romps again Once again, Azle Christian School smashed a foe that dared to venture to the Crusaders’ turf. This time it was Weatherford Express taking a lumping, 7022 on Homecoming when ACS (4-0) christened its new scoreboard. Pacing the offense was Joey Rosamond who threw for 390 yards, going 26-of-37 for 6 TDs. Alex Schardt hauled in 11 passes for 130 yards and 2 scores. Jeremiah Carlson caught 6 for 115 and a TD. Also snagging scoring passes were Josh Crawford (2) and Alex Coffey.

The memorable cross country season continued as three Azle squads were crowned champions in Haltom. The boys varsity poured over the finish line at “The Buff” and easily won the team title. Julian Hernandez led the way with a time of 17 minutes, 24 seconds over the challenging course. That was good for second overall. Other Hornets finished fourth (Christian McGill), seventh (Dylan Tritton), eighth (Chris Medellin), eleventh (Cody Drolet), twelfth (Jacob Self), and eighteenth (Carson Leatherwood). Coach Keith Boenisch said, “All varsity runners medaled. We wanted to push the first mile and run faster and packed. We did a good job at that.” With 29 points, Azle topped runner-up Brewer – a district Cody Drolet

rival – by 25 points. The boys JV also took the team title with Haygen Holbrooks winning the overall race. Coach Boenisch said, “He has run well all year and it was good to see him step up and win.” The second JV runner was also a Hornet, Brandon Wolfe. The AHS JV smashed runner-up Joshua 21 to 74. Boenisch said every varsity runner medaled and nine JV racers earned hardware. The varsity girls won another trophy as champions. Crystal McConnell took second in the race, behind only a runner from Abilene Cooper. Also finishing high were Sarah Perna (4th), Sydney Bivens (8th), Haddasah Marquart (12th), and Kylie Fonville PLEASE SEE AZLE, PAGE 8A.

Next up Saginaw

The Rough Riders might be 0-4, but they are “scrappy,” Azle coach Devon Dorris said. He added that Saginaw is also “aggressive” and “physical.” Dorris expects to see the Riders try to stop Azle’s running game.

Subvarsities victorious again Just like with the football varsity, Boswell proved to be a formidable foe for Azle. The JV Green topped their Pioneer rivals 28-21. Ricky Aregullin picked off 2 passes and ran one back for a TD. In a back-and-forth game, coaches lauded the play of Justin Miller who converted a key fourth down in the final period. Earlier, Miller hit Tyler Barnard for 6 points.

T.J. Buenrostro sprinted 57 yards for a score and Jacob Talland also ran in. Alex Quevedo hit all PATS and earned punting kudos; a fake punt secured the win. The JV White smash Bos 44-2. AHS fell behind 2-0 then scored all the other points. Travis Dunn and Jake Wood paced the Azle D, coaches said. That included key fourth down stops and a goal line stand.

James Conrique recovered a kickoff. Dakota Hutson scored 5 TDs running. Michael Gonzalez ran 70 for a score, too. QB Cody Finn threw to Dylan Gibson for two 2-point plays. The 9th Green (4-0) edged Boswell 26-25. Gamble Moore won the game with an 83-yard kickoff return to paydirt after the Pioneers had taken the lead late.

J.T. Fugate scored twice and Jake Norwood added a TD run. Other standouts: Ty Beck, Adam Brazell, Cody Donnell, Dylan Temple, Cameron Hering, and Louis LaMorte. The 9th White fell to the Pioneers 13-6. The AHS’ score came when Sam Collins threw to Ethan Ludwig. Collins and Justin White paced the frosh defense.

(13th). Coach Melody Dennis said, “‘The Buff’ is a hilly, weaving course that requires a lot of physical strength and mental focus. Our kids did a great

job of focusing and pushing on down hills and through all the twists and turns where it is easy to take a mental break and slow down. “They, as a team, passed many runners in those sections and ran a smart tactical

race.” Six of the seven varsity Lady Hornets medaled and “the seventh one was sick or I think she would have medaled,” the coach recalled. The girls JV finished third with Misty Self pacing the

team. Dennis said, “All the kids are working hard and beginning to realize they have the potential to do well at district and regional. I am very proud of them and excited about the next few weeks.”

The winners of “The Buff” cross country meet in Haltom Sept. 25 (l-r with coach Melody Dennis in hat): Katie Davis, Abigail Kortokrax, Sydney Bivens, Sarah Perna, Haddasah Marquart, Crystal McConnell, Kylie Fonville.

Forte Junior High Football The 8th A (2-1) lost its first game of the year to Willkie. Coaches noted, “The Hornets showed a lot of heart and played hard.” Picked as game MVPs were Havin Hill and Micha Mowery. The 8th B (1-2) lost to Willkie despite improvement in the second half of the game, said coaches. “Keep giving it everything you’ve got and great things will happen,” they encouraged. Game MVPs were Estaphanie Tellez, Kevin Reece, and Monte Holliman. Volleyball The 8th A (2-1) beat Willkie, 2-1: 25-20, 10-25, 25-13. Leading Forte were Avery North and Morgan Ashmore. The 8th B (2-1) took down Willkie 25-21, 25-9. In game 2, the serving of Harell

Brown was key, coach Rachel Gibb said. In the opener, the serving of Teagan Simms helped Forte rally from an 8-point deficit. The 7th A (2-1) popped Willkie 12-25, 25-11, 25-11. Jasmine Anderson was named the A’s MVP. “The girls started slow but pulled it together to get a big win. Everyone did their part and played well,” coaches noted. The 7th B (2-1) drilled Willkie 25-23, 25-16. “They showed tremendous fight after getting behind early,” coaches recalled. Haley Rodgers served 8 balls in a row then Chloe Turner and Trinity Shields finished off each game with 3 consecutive points. “Very proud of the overall team effort and everybody understanding their roles,” said coaches.

Azle Junior High Volleyball The 8th A (2-1) swept the Lady Frogs of Lake Worth, Coach Kriss Meeker said. “It was much more competitive than we anticipated,” she said, “but still no match for the strong defense and attacking of Azle.” Leading the defense were Mari-

sah Mata, Jayden O’Gorman, and Breann Collard. Killing several balls were Jenna McKee, Presley Morgan, and Ximena Gonzalez. Coach Meeker lauded the “rowdy crowd” that cheered the Lady Hornets to victory.

Local boys take two world titles BY NATALIE GENTRY The “Battle 4 the Ages” (BFA) World Championship tournament came to Dallas On Sept. 20, to crown the very best youth Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competitors. Kids from all over the U.S., Dominican Republic, Brazil, Canada, and more met on the mats to find out who the best were in each age group. Genesis Jiu Jitsu of Azle brought five honors in the 9, 10, 11, preteen and teen divisions. Each one performed outstandingly, noted Coach Ryan Kovach. In the end, two Genesis Azle athletes walked away with a

World Championship title. Jadon Hellarud and Dillinger Kovach faced off in the 9-year-old and 10-year-old divisions respectively. Round after round, they submitted each of their opponents and brought home the BFA World Championship belts. This accomplishment made Kovach a five-time World Champion. Coaches Ryan and Karen Kovach could not be happier with the entire team's performance. “It's hard to believe that in our tiny little town of Azle that we have enough talent out of one school to face off against the best of the best around the

With his win at the 2014 “Battle 4 the Ages” World Championships, 10-year-old Dillinger Kovach – here with mother and coach Karen Kovach – became a fivetime world champion.

ing, teaching style and hard work that these kids put on the mat. We see even bigger things coming down the horizon for our youth competitors,” he said.

Boyd tops in weekly football contest Two was the magic number for those vying in the weekly football contest. Four different prognosticators were off on two games apiece.

So the tie-breaker game of Texas A&M 35, Arkansas 28 (63) settled the matter. With a guess of 61 on the tie-breaker, Bobby Boyd once again took the $20 top prize.

Second place was earned by Kevin Wilson who guessed 70; he won $10. The $5 third place check was secured by John Hagerman with a guess of 76.

Too far off on the tie-breaker was Kyle Betz. His guess was 79. Azle and Wichita Falls losing were the two games that marred most cards.

Running it up the flagpole and saluting (?) it

nce upon a time, I was a firefighter in Arlington. I played a lot of ping-pong and spades and, oh, yeah, sometimes went into buildings that were 1,500 degrees or so. (I’d like to say I was carrying on a proud family tradition, but I simply answered an ad in the Fort Worth StarTelegram, took the tests, and got hired. Not very romantic. Since it paid more than the truck I was driving – and had benefits! – I entered the fire service.) One day, something horrible happened. One of my rookie school buddies was killed in a training accident, electrocuted when power lines arced over to a ladder he was setting. Aside from all the tumult around the incident, we found out that, among

other things at the funeral, we had to salute. Now, as a former hippie, I knew nothing about saluting. Was there a certain angle for your hand? Did you cock your thumb ON YOUR into your palm? How MARK long did you Mark K. Campbell hold it? I was not alone in being salute stupid. My fellow firefighter classmates included a flight attendant and a mechanic, both also clueless.

A former Army lieutenant who then worked at the fire department stopped by and gave us some lessons. No one wanted to be the guy who screwed up the salute. We did OK, I guess. (Even though in the church I got out of step with the other guys and I’m pretty sure that made Ronny giggle up at the pearly gates.) Recently, the greatest Obama scandal of all-time – “And that’s saying something!” said every talk radio station on earth – occurred when, holding a cup of coffee, he gave a poor salute to a couple of Marines. Clearly, the commander-in-chief was using the “latte salute” as another way of sending secret messages to his Islamic cohorts as they press on toward taking over America.

Many conveniently have forgotten that President George W. Bush once saluted in a weird manner – with a dog. It’s a hilarious picture:

Now, the president does not have to return salutes even though they must be given. In fact, historically, most presidents didn’t return salutes regularly. Reagan brought it back into vogue. If I were president, you’re durn tootin’ I’d salute (now that I [kinda] know how). Every time. It’s a respect thing and no one deserves it more than our armed services personnel. But even the Military Times said to cut the president some slack: “Most troops and veterans, particularly enlisted members, will admit to the occasional sloppy salute.” This is a tempest in a coffee cup.

Clearly Barney the dog is a bit confused. “I’d put up a paw, but George is squishing me.”

Mark K. Campbell is the News editor and he almost learned to salute earlier because, in 1976, his draft lottery number was 38.

he sauntered down the stairs and gave a “Starbucks” salute – with a Styrofoam cup in his salute hand and a big grin that resembled a caricature of Beetle Bailey. Even Private Beetle Bailey is versed in the military protocol of returning a proper salute. Of course, Mr. Obama’s hacks entreated the media for some slack. Last time I checked, there was no asterisk for stupidity. The media is just waking up and smelling the coffee (no pun intended) of Mr. Obama’s failures, seeing the active duty military and the proud families whose sons and daughters serve in the Armed Forces of their profound anger at the president’s ineptitude. Ebola has a higher approval rating than Mr. Obama! Well, America, how is that Hope and Change working out for you now?

Dear Editor: While watching President Obama give a speech at the United Nations on Sept. 23 on global terrorism, it was refreshing to see him speak in a clarion voice for a change in the liquidation of this new breed of terrorism. But then, three minutes into the speech, it was vintage Obama 2007 apology tour again. Mr. Obama in an unctuous effort had the temerity to compare the moral equivalence of unspeakable reign of terror at the hands of Islamic extremists to the tumult in Ferguson, Missouri. Then, to compound that ridiculous statement, Mr. Obama had just landed minutes before in the Marine One helicopter; when disembarking, Joseph. L. Bryan Fort Worth

Western historian thinks original meaning not modern one

ccasionally in this column I've played a little game with readers and have written: “Quick, what is the first thing you think of when someone says ‘Cowboys’? Is it football? Or, “Texas Rangers” – is it baseball? As a Western historian, I always try to think of the Western term first. So...quick! What first comes to mind at the word “Winnebago”? You failed the Western history test if you thought “RV.” Yes, a company currently headquartered in Forest City, Iowa, Winnebago County, called Winnebago Industries, Inc. began building motor homes in 1958. More than 2,000 employees build thousands of “Winnebagos” each year. However, the Western history meaning of the word is an Indian tribe. A Winnebago was a member of a tribe who once lived in eastern Wisconsin, south of Green Bay, who spoke a Sioux dialect. They were enemies of the Fox and Sauk Indians of last week's column. (Sauk leaders

THE

Keokuk and Black Hawk differed over whether to accept payment and leave their ancestral lands to move west of the Mississippi River. The latter chief fought back in 1832.) The Winnebagos had fought five years earlier. The Winnebago let peaceful tribes from Michigan and Ohio settle in their area of eastern Wisconsin in the 1650s when the warlike Iroquois drove them out. Winnebago culture was similar to the Sioux and Algonquin patrilineal clans with their own chiefs. They lived in woodlands with permanent bark-house villages and grew crops of corn, beans and squash, even though hunting provided their main source of food. Spring hunting trips to the buffalo country were an anticipated event each year. They began trading peacefully with French traders in 1634. However, the Winnebago allied themselves with the British, who drove the French out in the French and Indian War (1756-1763). The Winnebago even fought with the British in the War of 1812 against the Americans. In a treaty at Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin in 1825 the tribe, along with

others, promised peace. However, hostilities between rival tribes spread to fights with white arrivals who were encroaching on their land because of mining activities. In 1826 a family out gathering maple syrup near Prairie du Chien was murdered, and six Winnebagos were accused of the crime. Col. Josiah SnelPAGES FROM ling took two of them into WESTERN custody.

ing revenge. Violence erupted, and Red Bird's men killed two whites and then fled northward, attacking settlers as they traveled. Other tribes joined them. The governor called out the militia, and federal troops arrived as well. General Henry Dodge and General Henry Atkinson and the militia volunteers arrived two days later with a show of force. It worked, for Winnebago Chief Red Bird and the other chiefs surrendered and were arrested. Red Bird died while being held, and the military executed some of the others. The brief war, called the Fevre (or Fever) War, ended. In August 1829 the Winnebago signed a treaty at Prairie du Chien, ceding land, and gave away Northern Illinois to the U.S. for $540,000 over 30 years and $30,000 worth of food, clothing and other merchandise immediately. Tensions remained high and erupted in the Black Hawk War in 1832. Ultimately, the Winnebago lost all their land east of the Mississippi and were given a small reservation in eastern Iowa. The government later moved them to Minnesota, then

to South Dakota. Disease shrank their numbers, and they fled to Nebraska. Modern descendants have a community in Winnebago, Nebraska with land, schools and a community college. They operate the WinnaVegas Casino Resort on tribal land nearby, where they hope to gain voter approval for betting on horse racing. A few Winnebago survived the removals in Wisconsin and their descendants have erected a statue of Red Bird in Sherwood, Calumet County, Wisconsin inside High Cliff State Park overlooking Lake Winnebago. Meanwhile, Winnebago Industries, Inc. – not owned by the Indians – saw its revenue grow to $228.8 million in 2014's second quarter, up from 177.2 million in the same quarter in 2013. So, please, when you hear the term “Winnebago,” think of the real Native Americans who suffered, but have a measure of success now, (not as well as the RV manufacturer, though)!

Perry helps break ground on outer space project

ov. Rick Perry on Sept. 22 participated in a groundbreaking ceremony for the SpaceX Commercial Launch Facility near Boca Chica Beach, adjacent to Brownsville, which will launch commercial satellites into Earth orbit. Perry said the groundbreaking “is the result of years of cooperation between Texas and SpaceX” and his office’s Texas Enterprise Fund “was instrumental in bringing SpaceX to Texas, with a $2.3 million grant in August that will bring 300 jobs and create $85 million in capital investment in South Texas.” The State of Texas also is offering $13 million from its Spaceport Trust Fund to the Cameron County Spaceport Development Corp.,

Perry said. Elon Musk, SpaceX chief executive and chief designer, said, “With today's groundbreaking at Boca Chica, we will begin an investment in South Texas that will create hundreds of jobs and over time contribute hundreds of millions of dollars into the local economy.” Governor will not appear Visiting state district Judge Bert Richardson on Sept. 26 granted Gov. Perry’s request to be excused from a pretrial hearing scheduled for Oct. 13. Perry was indicted last month by a Travis County grand jury on felony charges of official oppression and abuse of office. The charges stem from the governor’s threat to veto legislation funding the state’s public integrity unit in 2013 unless Travis County District Attorney Rose-

mary Lehmberg resigned, following her arrest for driving while intoxicated. Lehmberg, who heads the unit, refused to resign and Perry vetoed the unit’s funding. Energy report is released State Comptroller Susan Combs on Sept. 23 released a report that she said urges policymakers and elected officials “to discontinue costly subsidies and tax breaks driving development of new electricity generation and allow a more marketdriven approach to providing reliable power to millions of Texas consumers when they need it most.” In the report titled “Texas Power Challenge: Getting the Most From Your Energy Dollars,” Combs also said she “challenges the wind energy industry to ensure taxpayers

and ratepayers are not doubleburdened with infrastructure costs and tax subsidies for power sources that are STATE intermitCAPITAL tent.” HIGHLIGHTS “ I t ’ s time for Ed Sterling wind to s t a n d on its own two feet,” Combs said. “Billions of dollars of tax credits and property tax limitations on new generation helped grow the industry, but today they give it an unfair market advantage over other

power sources.” Searchers work in Brooks The Texas Department of Public Safety and the Texas State Guard announced Sept. 19 they have special search teams to assist the Brooks County Sheriff’s Office with locating and recovering human remains in remote areas north of the Texas-Mexico border. According to the announcement, the majority of the remains are suspected to be those of illegal immigrants who died attempting to avoid detection while entering the United States. The first of these search missions began this week and will continue through the weekend.

Sept. 22 announced the U.S. Department of Education granted his request to extend the state’s conditional waiver from specific provisions of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (commonly known as the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001). The extension will run through the 2014-2015 school year pending approval of the agency’s proposal for new teacher and principal evaluation and support systems in Texas. The systems are a specific component of the federal waiver and are scheduled to be piloted in school districts and charters during the 2014-2015 school year. Veteran state reporter and legislative analyst Ed Sterling is member services director for the Texas Press Association, whose 518 member newspapers have combined circulation of 3.7 million.

Movie Man

Wednesday, October 1, 2014

Denzel the Equalizer to a pedestrian script It’s no secret that the Movie Man loves him some Denzel Washington. That’s why it’s a little weird that the Movie Man missed two of Denzel’s biggest movies in theaters. About the film Every week, the Movie Man chooses which film he will see. Sometimes that decision is made without question – when a big movie like the upcoming Interstellar arrives. Other times he changes his mind at the last minute...just because. Then there are the occasional essays about upcoming movies or genre histories, etc. Sometimes, however, it’s not necessarily the movie that draws the Movie Man but something else. Like a director (Steven Spielberg) or an actor (Tom Hanks). It’s that latter area where the Movie Man usually goes out of his way to catch Denzel. The Movie Man has always considered Hanks and Denzel 1A and 1B when it comes to Best American Actor. So the Movie Man sees almost all of the duo’s movies. (He hasn’t missed a Hanks movie – excluding shorts, cameos, and TV appearances – since Philadelphia in 1993 [which also starred Denzel]. That movie came out in January; the Movie Man was not born until that May. [Dave was the first review, a ‘+’ in nonnumbering days, a 7 today].) The Movie Man’s Denzel record is not nearly that encompassing. However, there are two films that the Movie Man really messed up on by missing. One is Malcolm X in 1992. That is one amazing performance and a great movie. Now, Denzel has some really good movies on his resume. The Movie Man enjoyed Fallen (1998, MM #216, 6), especially that groovy ending. Yet, somehow, despite being

such a Denzel fan, the Movie Man also missed Training Day, Denzel’s Oscar winner in 2001. The movie came out Oct. 5 and, for some reason, the Movie Man chose Serendipity (MM #424, 6) then instead of Training Day. (Still, the Movie Man’s biggest miss remains The Sixth Sense; that 1999 film got dissed for the thriller Instinct [MM #290, 6].) But the Movie Man did not miss The Equalizer.

The plot (spoilers) Robert (Denzel) is a quiet man who happily toils in a home-improvement warehouse. His past bugs him, keeping him up at night. Denzel wanders down to a cafe where young hooker Teri (Chloe Grace Moretz) longs to break free of her Russian pimps and pursue a music degree. When Moretz gets beaten up by the mobsters, Denzel, against a former vow to his dead wife, returns to his killing machine ways to rid the area of the Russians. He wipes out Moretz’s attackers but only attracts the ire of the main Russian boss who dispatches his best hitman, Teddy (Marton Csokas), to get rid of Denzel. That proves to be tougher than the cruel Csokas thinks. Eventually, Denzel and the criminals led by Csokas – who are holding Denzel’s workmates hostage – end up in Denzel’s warehouse. Being on Denzel’s home turf does not bode well for the evildoers.

What works As usual, Denzel is sensational. He’s directed by Antoine Fuqua again (they did Training Day together) and Denzel is appropriately menacing and gentle, a killer and a kind helping hand. Fuqua does a great job. Especially early. The movie takes its time building up to Denzel first blowing his top. Fuqua lets that

High performance

Art

by mark k. campbell Art runs in Steven Shaw’s family. Shaw, 36 and the owner Advanced Automotive Performance in Azle, knows art. His grandfather was famed sculptor Jack Bryant. Aunt Cynthia Bryant’s detailed illustrations hang in Shaw’s office. Jack Bryant, Jr. continues creating, too. Shaw’s dad, Keith Shaw, and Uncle Stuart Shaw are also artistically bent. And so is Steven. He plies his unique talents in different ways. Shaw’s skills with vehicles at Advanced Automotive allow him to create high performance vehicles, many exotic. Right now, he and his crew are working on a Cobra Mustang engine, supercharging it, he said. But it’s the object out front of the shop that garners so much attention. “We’re ‘gearheads’ here,” he said. “That’s what we do, what we call each other – that’s how it started. “We do a lot of performance engine builds.” Shaw wanted to reflect his business in art and began designing what became the Gear Head, a mounted, moveable sculpture at 1200 Northwest Parkway/Highway 199. “I drew and designed it on an AutoCad, a computer program that lets you work in 3-D architectural models,” said the Azle native. After locking down his idea, Shaw took his blueprints to his

dad and uncle in Fort Worth at ADS, a steel fabrication shop. There, the trio brought Shaw’s idea to life, utilizing a trio of metals – stainless steel, aluminum, and corten. That latter material is what helps make the Gear Head unique. Corten can be found in shipping containers, Shaw said. “It begins to corrode and rust, but then it seals itself. It’s like a bronze. “That gave us three colors of metal, a contrast. It makes a cool look.” It took about a year from the beginnings to the completion of the project, Shaw said. Plasma cutting was involved and had to be done in phases. With its interior spinning gears and cogs set – on a “Dixie chopper lawnmower hub spindle” – the Gear Head was erected this spring and was an immediate hit. “Almost everybody loves it,” Shaw said. “Kids really love it. We have people pull over all the time.” Just recently, he said, a group of Harley-Davidson motorcycle riders stopped to admire the piece and photograph it. “They got it,” Shaw said, noting that not everybody does. “Some can’t make the connection between what we do here and the art,” he said. “But This “Gear Head” sculpture out front of Advanced Automotive Performance off Highway 199 in Azle is art in momost people think it’s pretty tion. Photo by Mark K. Campbell cool.” Shaw admitted he gets satrsroofing.biz isfaction seeing his work admired. “It’s good to have some art back in Azle again,” he said.
