Reno council censures Basham, hears input on annexation of roadway on FM 730, SH 199 BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN A Reno city council member was prevented from attending an executive session – during which the council discussed that member and his behavior – at a city council meeting Monday evening, Oct. 19. “Everyone needs to be aware that we may need to do something different this evening that’s not our usual practice,” Mayor Lynda Stokes said. “Because of threats of litigation, it may be necessary to exclude a council

member from executive session because of those issues.” City attorney Walt Leonard told the council there are certain circumstances in which council may want to restrict attendance. “If a particular person or officer of the city, by attending, would potentially raise a conflict because of threatened litigation or similar such items, the council has the power to limit attendance,” Leonard told the council. On a motion from council member

Bonnie Black, the council convened in executive session and limited the attendance of Place 2 member John Basham, who voted his opposition. When the council reconvened after about 53 minutes, Eric Hunter told those in attendance that a senior city employee had been approached by Basham, who asked for the employee’s support for re-election in May. Hunter said he feels that was an improper action that could create a hostile work environment and even the

possibility of retaliation. In a motion, Hunter requested Stokes ask city staff to create a policy against such action with sanctions, and his motion included a request to censure Basham. The motion passed with Basham again voting opposition to the measure. Then Black spoke at length. She claimed Basham has, since his election to the council in May, made a series of accusations against both the

city and the council based on “powers of oversight.” “By state law, the powers of oversight are vested in the Mayor, and his concerns should have been brought to her for investigation,” Black told those at the meeting. She said Basham’s complaints have recurring characteristics that show a generalized lack of knowledge about the operations of the city and that his PLEASE SEE RENO, PAGE 3A.

Wrecks keep PD, FD busy BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN Two wrecks – a near-head-on crash in broad daylight and a rollover in the middle of the night – kept area police and firefighters busy in recent days. On Friday, Oct. 16, shortly before 2 p.m., Parker County ESD1 firefighters, Sheriff’s deputies and Department of Public Safety (DPS) troopers were initially called to the scene of a nearhead-on crash in the 12600 block of FM 730 South near Creekwood Ranch Road. Although the location of the accident is in Parker County, a DPS trooper discovered that portion of the roadway is actually in the jurisdiction of the Azle Police Department, who was then notified to investigate the accident. A report filed by Azle police reveals that a white Dodge Ram 2500 pickup driven by David Blake Arnold, 39, of Azle, was southbound on FM 730 South when a blue 2002 Ford Mustang driven by Michael David Allen, 26, also of Azle, pulled out of Pecan Acres RV Park. According to the report, Allen lost control of the Mustang, which crashed into the pickup almost head-on. Fire erupted in the engine compartment of the pickup, but it was quickly

This Week in Azle History

BY MARK K. CAMPBELL Good luck getting a ticket if you want to witness the first-ever Azle High School Athletic Hall of Fame ceremonies Saturday, Oct. 24. Every $20 ticket is gone, Azle ISD Athletic Director Scott Anderson said. He noted that as many as 300 could be in attendance in the first major ceremony in the new gym at 6 p.m. that evening. That number includes six members of the inaugural Hall of Fame Class: James Casey, Jackie Swaim Dinardo, Derek Dorris, Dan Mauldin, Stan Mauldin, and Wayne Walton. The late Chelsa Holder will be represented by her brother Pat Holder. Before the Saturday ceremony, all seven inductees will be presented at halftime of this Friday’s Denton home football game. Earlier, the septet and their guests will tour the shiny new gym at 5 p.m. – 30 minutes before the volley-

ball Lady Hornets play the first official contest there, also against Denton. Anderson said the Hall of Fame ball got rolling around a year ago. A committee was formed and, after examining scores of nominations, a first class of seven was decided. “There’s an excitement about it,” Anderson said of the dawning event. “It’s exciting to see it all come together.” Some inductees are making a major effort to get back to their alma mater. Dinardo, who went on to play professional basketball after graduating from AHS in 1976, is a successful coach in Connecticut. Dan Mauldin now lives in San Diego, California; the doctor – AHS Class of 1961 – helped solve a mathematics problem that had stymied academics for 50 years. All inductees have brought along presenters that made an impact on their careers and lives.

It’s also a resource for local services for seniors; Jackie “JJ” Joy may be contacted at 817-444-0070. Last week was more fun than you can imagine. Wednesday, Oct. 14, Oktoberfest was celebrated. Prepared by Director Kip Young, a special menu of bratwurst, sauerkraut, German potato salad and German cake was enjoyed. German music was played and Chris Kay (born and raised in Germany) did a presentation on the meaning of the Oktoberfest celebration. Members were encouraged to come dressed in traditional German clothes. Hatsoff went to Kip “Heidi” Young and Jack Baker for their original costumes. The month of October is coming to an end very quickly, but, before it is gone, there are some special events you may want to know about. While computer classes are on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10:30 a.m., on Tuesday, Oct. 20, White Elephant Bingo will be played following lunch. People have donated some real nice items to be won.

TCPH sprays area in Briar for WNV BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN

An area in Briar was ground sprayed for West Nile Virus (WNV) by Tarrant County Public Health (TCPH) Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 19-20, with a third spraying scheduled for tonight (Wednesday, Oct. 21). Spraying will begin at 9 p.m. and conclude by 5 a.m. The spray area is along Liberty School Road beginning at English Creek Drive and ending at Reed Road, and includes English Creek Drive, English Creek Court, Imogene Court, and a portion of Peden Road. Kelly Hanes, spokesman for TCPH, explained that a mosquito sample from a pool collected Oct. 9 in that area tested positive for WNV, and the area was ground sprayed Oct. 12. However, subsequent test-

ing revealed a second positive mosquito sample. “Tarrant County Public Health’s response to a second positive sample is per protocol,” Hanes said, adding that 150 to 200 mosquitoes are typically trapped at a given location for testing. Unseasonably warm temperatures are not necessarily to blame, Hanes said. “It’s not surprising to see WNV still active this time of year,” Hanes said. “Not until the temperatures reach 55 degrees at night will we see a real change in the population.” Hanes said ground spray crews will not spray when people and pets are active in the neighborhood, but will wait until activity in the area “calms down” for the night.

The product used for spraying dissipates at first light, when UV rays render it no longer effective, Hanes said. TCPH issued notifications to residents in the area throughout the weekend before spraying commenced. TCPH has also updated the WNV Interactive Map on the department’s Stop West Nile Virus webpage. To date, the department has tested 4,509 mosquito samples at TCPH’s North Texas Regional Laboratory since seasonal surveillance began on April 1. A total of 401 samples have tested positive – Arlington (44), Azle (2), Bedford (6), Benbrook (10), Burleson (1), Colleyville (11) Crowley (19), Edgecliff Village (6), Euless

They should routinely dump standing water on their property, use repellent, and dress for dusk to dawn. TCPH has compiled a list of ways people can protect themselves, and says the easiest and best way to avoid WNV is to prevent mosquito bites.

Mayor Stokes and city staff agreed that the annexations would help efforts to prevent the city of Fort Worth from annexing Reno, and encouraged those whose property touches the areas to be annexed to petition the city of Reno for voluntary annexation. The council voted to formalize its contract with Big Mike’s Wrecker Service. Apparently, that contract went on a monthto-month basis several years ago. The council also adopted a $25 warrant fee after Leonard explained that it would not affect people who received a traffic citation and “take care of it.” Polino advised the council that at the current rate of about 600 warrants per year, the city could add $15,000 to its general fund revenue as a result of this fee.

I have found the hippies – and it’s pretty far out

e stumbled upon a happening. Happenings used to be cool. They date back to the groovy Sixties when there were all kinds of happenings – sit-ins, marches, music jams, performance art. In fact, happenings often involve art. And that’s what we found as we ambled down a sidewalk in Hanalei, Kauai on vacation. A small business was jammed with people – far out, peace-love-and-happiness folks who so desperately want the vibe from 1967 to continue. The store was classic Kauai. Hawaii is where the hippies ended up. It’s not

Peasant blouses were carefully painted with swirls and whirls. But the real happening was in the back room. We heard music; there, on a small stage, drummers thumped out a beat while strangers harmonized together in a mantra-like drone accompanied by a sitar. In that back room, the place was packed – with people painting/writing/drawing on white walls. Markers and paints were available and everyone was encouraged to ex-

press themselves on the walls. And they did. Future five-yearold hippies drew at the lower levels. Charles Manson-looking hippies wrote things like “U R god” and “Make your own universe.” Naturally, I picked up a marker. I can draw one thing, learned in seventh grade art in 1969 – a falling rock. In the spirit of freakdom, I also recalled how to write “Peace” in balloony Peter Max-y letters. So, I left behind a rock falling on the word peace. Maybe that’s a mixed message but, hey, it was a happening and it remained for the Hawaiian love children to interpret. Mark K. Campbell is the News editor, and he chuckled while watching a very nervous traveling companion keep inching toward the exit.

The game is won in the trenches

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Why keep bringing up Dr. Ross Grant’s dismissal? I’m not sure why The Azle News has chosen twice recently to stir up the 2010 hornet’s nest regarding Dr. Ross Grant in the Oct. 7 “This Week in Azle History” section on the front page, but I think it shows very poor taste. There are many of us who feel that Dr. Grant was given a raw deal, so I don’t know why you would want to bring it up again. Raymond F. Hood Edith E. Hood

Cowboys in ‘30s had not changed much from 19th century

or some reason, the last half of the 19th century seems the most exciting part of the Western story to me – gold and silver strikes, cavalry and Indians, cowboys and cattle drives, and the transcontinental railroad being built westward. However, a friend recently gave me a little book that reminded me that if a young man roamed around on ranches in some parts of New Mexico and Arizona in the 1930s, the West remained unchanged. Such was the story of Judson W. Lee, whom his father nicknamed Dud. Born in central Texas in 1907, the youngster lived a rough life. His mother died in childbirth when Dud was only two and one-half. His father sent him to live with his grandparents, and then left. Later Dud and a sibling or two lived with their dad, but they moved from tenant farm to tenant farm. The youngsters received little schooling because they picked cotton in season. (I can remember my mother describing picking cotton on the family farm in Jack

THE

County as back-breaking work.) These were the early to mid-1920s. In 1925 when Dud was only 18, he married a girl named Rita, and they had a son, James. The young couple didn't get along, and when the boy was about two years old, Dud just left. Dud and his brother and a cousin or two lived the life of Western cowboys, moving from ranch to ranch. At the suggestion of one of the cousins, Dud and his relatives hunted lions (probably panthers or cougars, but they always called them lions). The government paid a bounty on a dead mountain lion because they killed livestock on the area ranches. If you could average killing two lions a month, you could get a bounty from the state. They would use dogs, and hunted in the Chiricahua Mountains in southeastern Arizona. The first lion Dud ever killed measured 6 feet, 1 inch and weighed 156 pounds. It was the biggest one he or his brothers ever killed. When Dud shot it, it fell down a canyon, and they had a lot of trouble retrieving it to get the bounty. In his book, Nine Years

in the Saddle, he mentions a bounty of $125. Their Dad came to Paradise, Arizona and began making illegal whiskey. (Nationwide Prohibition was in force at the time.) Dud PAGES FROM helped sell WESTERN the whiskey to make extra HISTORY money. In 1931 Dud J’Nell L. Pate quit lion hunting for a while to work for the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), a government program to put young men to work on public projects. (My father-in-law once showed me and my husband an archway of rocks to a park that he and his brother worked on in Erath County with the CCC during the Depression.) Dud said he worked on soil erosion and “also built some Publisher Kim Ware

beautiful nature trails in the Chiricahua Mountains which are still there.” (p. 59) When Dud and his relatives went back to lion hunting, they added a new twist. They advertised that they would take eastern dudes hunting for a fee. They trapped a lion or two before the rich hunters came, and kept it locked up in a cage some distance away from the hunting site. If their dude found no lions after a few days of hunting, one of Dud's cohorts would leave, get a lion from the cage, and take it into the area of the hunt over night and let it go early morning right before the hunt started. He watched which direction it went. With his hands, one of the crew would make what looked like a paw print in the dirt and yell, “He went this way!” Dogs caught the scent, and the chase began! When lion hunting slowed down, Dud could always get job for a few months on a ranch, breaking bucking horses. In 1930 Dud and his brother and cousins attended a dedication of a monument near a mountain peak in the Chiricahua Mountains that was

shaped like the head of Cochise, a famous Apache of earlier times. Everyone there signed their names on slips of paper and locked them in a tomb that was to be opened 100 years later. (It is hard to believe, but folks will be opening it 15 years from now.) Dud gave up the roaming lion hunting and cowboy life and got a job in mines in Brisbee, Arizona where he worked for 14 years. In 1953 he moved to Springfield, Missouri where he owned and operated several service stations until he retired in 1987. Good news came when his son James V. Lee, whom Dud abandoned about 1928, found him in 1988. It was James who transcribed and published his father's life story 10 years later, and his father was still alive to enjoy it. Son James Lee had acquired a good education and became a teacher. One wonders how many stories like the one of Judson W. Lee (Dud) are floating around untold somewhere in the West. Retired history professor J’Nell Pate of Azle has authored several books, many of which are on sale in the lobby of the Azle News.

Revenue estimate reflects slowdown in energy sector

exas Comptroller Glenn Hegar on Oct. 14 announced the release of his office’s Certification Revenue Estimate. The “CRE” is an update to the Biennial Revenue Estimate, a document that gives state lawmakers a good idea of how much revenue will be available for general-purpose spending in 2016-2017, the next twoyear state budget period. The CRE, Hegar said, reflects “any new laws from the session that could affect state revenue, as well as the most current fiscal and economic data.” The 140-day legislative session concluded four and half months ago, on June 1. The new CRE shows a 2.3 percent decline in the estimate of revenues available for general-purpose spending from $113 billion to a revised figure of $110.4 billion. The figure primarily reflects our most current estimates of oil and natural gas

prices and continuing weakness in Texas’ energy sector, Hegar said, adding that his office anticipates “no trouble in absorbing this reduction in available revenue.”

Early voting period begins Early voting for the Nov. 3 Election began Monday, Oct. 19, and runs through Friday, Oct. 30. To cast a ballot in person, voters must present an approved form of photo identification. The state’s chief elections officer, Texas Secretary of State Carlos Cascos, pointed out that age 65 and older and people with disabilities are automatically qualified to vote by mail and the last day to request a ballot by mail is Friday, Oct. 23. Voter ID may be obtained The Texas Department of Public Safety on Oct. 13 posted a reminder that for individuals in need of proper identification It’s School Bus Safety Week required to vote, Texas driver The Texas Department of license offices are the place to Public Safety recently reget an Election Identification minded drivers that it is illegal

to pass any school bus that is stopped and operating a visual signal, either flashing red lights or a stop sign. The reminder came in advance of National School Bus Safety Week, Oct. 19-23. “DPS urges drivers to make the safety of our children a priority whenever they travel near school buses and DPS will not tolerate those who break the law and put our children at risk. Remember, children are particularly vulnerable when entering or exiting a school bus,” said DPS Director Steven McCraw. Education chief resigns Texas Education Commissioner Michael L. Williams on Oct. 15 resigned effective Jan. 1 from his post as the head of the Texas Education Agency. Williams was appointed by then-governor Rick Perry on Sept. 1, 2012. The Midland native’s history as a public servant includes service as a member of the Texas

Railroad Commission, as U.S. Department of Education assistant secretary of education for civil rights, as U.S. Department of the Treasury deputy assistant secretary for law enforcement, as a federal prosecutor and as an assistant district attorney. Jobs number grows again The Texas Workforce Commission on Oct. 16 announced Texas added jobs in September for the seventh month of job growth in 2015. The state agency reported 26,600 nonfarm seasonally adjusted jobs were added last month after a decrease of 3,400 jobs in August. Since September 2014, state payrolls have increased by some 224,800 positions. Texas’ seasonally adjusted unemployment rate increased to 4.2 percent in September from 4.1 percent in August. Meanwhile, the current national unemployment rate stands at 5.1 percent, as calculated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Governor declares disaster Gov. Gregg Abbott signed a proclamation on Oct. 15, declaring a state of disaster in Bastrop County. “As severe wildfires continue to impact Bastrop County, I strongly urge Texans in that area to take all possible precautions to ensure their safety. By declaring a state of disaster in Bastrop County, the State of Texas is activating resources to help affected communities as efficiently and as effectively as possible,” Abbott said. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has approved a Fire Management Assistance Grant request, meaning that Texas will be eligible for 75 percent reimbursement from the federal government for costs associated with fighting the fire, Abbott added. 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.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR America has its head stuck in the sand Dear Editor: How much more ruinous collapse of a once great nation by this president Mr. Obama will it take for these sycophants who put forth so much ardor and fervency in for a man that they have their heads buried in the sand like an ostrich? Wasn’t it President Obama who said a few years back that “we are not a Christian nation”? He then passed a health care law that is an intrusion on our Christian values; he appointed left-wing liberals to the Supreme Court to pass his antiGod laws; he has let illegals in this country to kill Americans; and he defies the Constitution with his own fiats. Now it’s reported by media that Mr. Obama is encouraging schools to teach the Quran for

extra credit – while at the same time through Mr. Obama's Supreme Court, the school system is not allowed to even talk about the Holy Bible or the true living God, Jesus Christ, or salute the American flag. The direction this country is headed should strike fear in the hearts of every Christian, especially knowing that the Muslim religion believes that if Christians cannot be converted, they should be annihilated. The democratic principles that stood for more than 200 years as a bulwark against tyranny is now a rueful nation of doleful electorates of seven million who won’t even vote – 52 percent vote for pure greed and ideology, and the remaining 48 percent choose a candidate who is just as malfeasance as Mr. Obama. So does America have its head buried? It's stuck somewhere, that's for sure! Joseph Bryan Fort Worth

AHS cross country boys race to district title Lady Hornets miss out on annual regional trip to Lubbock BY MARK K. CAMPBELL It was good news, bad news at the District 5-5A Cross Country Championships in Wichita Falls Oct. 19 The good news: The Hornet squad, favored going in, ran strong and won the title. The bad news: The Lady Hornets struggled and missed out on a regional berth. The veteran boys were led by Cody Drolet and Christian McGill; the duo finished 2-3. When Julian Hernandez (11th), Haygen Holbrooks (16th), and Eloy Martinez

(24th) reached he finish line, Patrick Toy. In the open race, Joseph LyAzle had comfortably beaten its next closest rival – Chisholm saght edged teammate Ramiro Alvarez for second place by Trail – 53-78. All five Hornets finished the one second. The girls varsity story is not 5,000-meter race under 18 minas happy. utes.

The JV was led by Carson missed out on advancing. Coach Melody Dennis said, Leatherwood who was clocked “You only get one shot to make in 18 minutes, 7 seconds. A Hornet was second, too – it to the regional meet, and ev-

ery runner has to run her best on that particular day.” Dennis said that did not happen. She lauded the efforts of two Lady Hornets – Kylie Fonville and Katie Davis, adding, “The other five girls all ran slower than they did on the same district course. “That’s all it takes to get you beat.” The euphoria of watching the boys win three divisions and the girls take the JV and open categories was blunted by the varsity numbers, she said.

“

Seven really wonderful kids learned a painful but valuable lesson. Melody Dennis Lady Hornet cross country coach

“These are great kids; I hate that they are missing the experience of regional this year,” Dennis said. “Seven really wonderful kids learned a painful but valuable lesson.”

The JV race was won by Crystal McConnell while Tatum Lindahl took the open. The boys will race in Lubbock in the Region I event Oct. 26 in Mae Simmons Park.

Hornets vault to top of district after victory Azle skunks Chisholm Trail, 24-0 BY MARK K. CAMPBELL When the dust settled over District 5-5A last Friday, a logjam had been created at the top of the ledger. While Azle (5-2, 3-1) was grinding down Chisholm Trail 24-0 in Saginaw, Denton was beating Wichita Falls Rider. That threw four teams into a 3-1 clot – with Brewer right behind at 2-2. Just like Hornet head coach Devon Dorris predicted in September: anybody can beat anybody. After AHS let the Wichita Falls Homecoming game get too close for comfort late, the Hornets made sure that scenario was not repeated. Using a bruising running game and taking advantage of turnovers and solid field position, Azle ate up the clock and yardage. When the fourth quarter ended, both teams had near-identical total yards – 311 for Azle and 306 for Chisholm Trail – but AHS had piled up 24 points while skunking the Rangers. For the third 5-5A game, special teams came through, Dorris recalled. A punt was blocked in the Boswell contest, a kickoff was returned to paydirt against Wichita Falls, and, last week, another punt was blocked, by Sean Townsend. That one gave Azle a short Hornet Sean Townsend brings down a Ranger ball carrier. Azle shut out Chisholm Trail in Saginaw and is in a 4-way tie for first in 5-5A.

reached 20-0, but a rarity occurred when Quevedo missed another field goal. That didn’t faze Dorris who said about Quevedo, “He’s been terrific.” The Azle defense kept the hosts from getting back into the game with a red zone stop in the second half. Then the Hornets drove for a decisive fourth quarter scored that locked down the game. “That let me get a lot of guys in the game to get some game experience,” Dorris said. It was hardly an offensive explosion in Saginaw. In fact, Azle threw just 9 times, even though some calls were pass options that Davis chose to run on, the coach said. While AHS didn’t throw much, the Hornets ran 40 times with bruising back Chase Smith tallying 114 yards. Davis added 88 yards on 13 carries. The defense that threw a shutout was led by Seth Bell who had 17 total tackles, Townsend with 13, and Zach Petter with 12. Key turnovers were made via interceptions by Seth Ortega and Petter and a fumble recovery by Gamble Moore. Azle’s final three games will all be testy. The winner of this week’s Denton clash will be in the driver’s seat – but, as Dorris noted, anybody can beat anybody. Each game is vital.

New Gym Set to Open

Title game looming Historically, Azle Christian School is a six-man, private school powerhouse. This year, however, coach Gary Rushing is watching his young, inexperienced school improve week by week. The Crusaders (5-3, 4-0) benefitted from a forfeit for a fourth consecutive victory. That sets up a regular seasonending clash against “powerful” Weatherford Christian School for the district crown Oct. 30, coach Gary Rushing said. To get to this point, ACS claimed a trio of contests aside from the forfeit. The Crusaders won a thriller over Odessa Latter Rain, 49-43 in overtime. Azle Christian got the ball first in overtime and scored. Then the ACS defense stopped Odessa for the win. QB Caleb Morgan ran for 160 yards and threw for 200 more; he scored 3 TDs. John Mark Burress ran for 100 yards and 3 touchdowns. Crusader Roman Maoderin and his ACS teammates are End Mason Dickens caught 8 playoff bound again. Photo by Mark K. Campbell passes for 120 yards.

Defensively, Bryson Wilson, Dickens, and Burress all picked off passes. Roman Maoderin and Harley Vandertisch had 8 tackles each. Next, the Crusaders edged archrival Granbury Conerstone for a 44-42 Homecoming win. Burress scored 5 TDs as he ran for 176 yards and caught 7 passes for 140 more. Dickens added a TD. Morgan threw for 5 touchdowns. Bobby Greenwood, Dickens, and Maoderin paced the ACS D. Azle Christian next destroyed Flint Academy 71-6. Burress returned the opening kickoff for a TD and eventually added 4 more touchdowns – 2 rushing and 2 receiving. QB Morgan threw for 230 yards in a 10-of-12 outing. Dickens hauled in 5 of those passes for 150 yards and 2 scores. Freshman Greenwood added 60 yards and 2 TDs. The victories set up the colossal contest on the road against Weatherford Christian for all the district marbles.

JV, 9th football Hornets victors The Hornet subvarsities played some exciting games. The JV lost a killer to Saginaw Oct. 1 in a 5-5A clash. Azle tied the game a 6-6 then pulled off an impressive goal line stand late thanks to Branson Wilson, Charles Cullen, and Austin Coleman. But a late safety allowed the Rough Riders to escape, 8-6. Grapevine was next; AHS led early, but lost to the Mustangs. Coaches lauded the play of Hornets Gavin Coffee, Trent Creacy, Antonio Ixchu, Justin White, Drake Hinson, and Wilson. The JV got a 14-0 district win over Chisholm Trail. The defense was led by Nick Cummings and Creacy. Linemen Colby Williams and Michael Weiss opened holes for Ixchu and Coffee who scored TDs. The 9th Green (6-1) continued a strong season with two more victories. Against Wichita Falls Oct. 8, the Green won 28-18. Azle scored on all but one possession – a good thing since the Coyotes controlled the clock, AHS coaches noted. Kolton Van Gelder got the Hornets on the board with a 6-yard run. Next, Christian Morales caught an 8-yard TD pass from QB Cody Akers as the first quarter wound down. A fake field goal pass to Dan Ruelas from David Johnson of 14 yards put Azle up 21-6 at the break. Ryan Reynolds’ 21-yard “tackle breaking” third quarter TD run capped the Hornet scoring. Other standouts included Payton Vaughn and Dalton Crutsinger. The Green next clubbed Chisholm Trail 33-8. Azle trailed early, 8-7, before an 81-yard kickoff return by Bradley Crawford. Other big plays: Peyton Ladner (74 yard TD run); Akers (58 TD run); and Christian Morales (51 run). The 9th White(1-6) tumbled 22-8 to Chisholm Trail. Noah Vurich scored for Azle on a 4-yard run. He also threw a long pass to Xander Salsman.

Two words sum up the Broncos: Xavier Scott. The powerhouse runner will get a slew of touches against Azle. Last week against WF Rider, he carried 41 times for 250 yards. Boswell has been the team that slowed him best – and Scott still gained 204 yards. “They’re going to hand it to No. 5,” Azle coach Devon Dorris said. “It will be a challenge for us to gang tackle and swarm to the football,” he added. “We’re going to have to be working together.” The Bronco QB is the coach’s son. “They will throw some,” Dorris said. With a 42-29 win over Rider, Denton moved to 3-1 in 5-5A, tied with three other teams, including Azle.

Movie Man

Azle News Wednesday, October 21, 2015

Peak an homage to gory, ghostly classics The Movie Man hates it when several good movies come out on the same weekend since he always focuses on just one to review. With Goosebumps, Bridge of Spies, and Crimson Peak, that’s what’s happened. The Movie Man pulled the trigger on the latter, skipping Spies – a Steven Spielberg movie starring Tom Hanks. If you throw out a few cameos/small parts, the Movie Man has not missed a Hanks movie since 1993’s Philadelphia. With Denzel Washington, Hanks remains America’s greatest actor. But Halloween nears and not seeing Crimson Peak seemed wrong. Sorry, Tom. About the film The Universal monsters – Dracula, Frankenstein’s monster, the Wolf Man, the Mummy – made scary movies fun. When they got released to TV in the late 1950’s, a new generation discovered those classics. Then came Hammer Studios which took those famous creatures, modernized them, and reissued them…in shocking color. Another onslaught of fear films had arrived, first from England with Hammer followed quickly by the beloved horror films from Italy of Mario Bava. His stylish, psychedelic creep-outs landed in theaters where they were so weird they didn’t catch on until they became cult hits on college campuses in the 1970’s. Those queer, atmospheric, graphic terror pictures were tagged giallo – “yellow,” officially, based on the color of paperback crime novels that were popular source material, but the name soon extended to the more explicit films; eventually, these movies led to the slasher movie era that bled into the 1980’s. No self-respecting horror movie maven can claim to be an aficionado if s/he hasn’t seen Black Sunday, Black Sabbath, Kill Baby…Kill! and Twitch of the Death Nerve (now that’s a

movie title!). Bava made the kind of movies that normal people must’ve figured had been created by a madman while film fans – including directors Martin Scorsese (who hails Kill Baby…Kill! as a masterpiece) and Quentin Tarantino – lauded him as a genius. Today, of course, gore and more gore is par for the horror movie course. Even this week’s Crimson Peak evolves into a carnage-filled finale that is as much a nod to Bava as a lure to today’s bloodthirsty audiences. If you’re just cutting your teeth on this branch of horror movies, try Bava then head over to the man who took over from him, Dario Argento – check out Suspira (1977), another cult classic beloved by genre purists. Crimson Peak is clearly an homage to the previous era of bloody cinema – artistic yet sometimes hard to watch. (Early giallo movies regularly got tagged with an X in those preNC-17 days.) Crimson Peak isn’t that graphic until the end when the blood-as-a-metaphor fills the screen. The plot (spoiler) In New York in 1914, young Edith (Mia Wasikowska), now a debutant, has seen ghosts her entire life, including her mother who warns of “crimson peak.”

Crimson Peak

Guillermo del Toro. Plus there are some lovely, long, sweeping camera shots that are mesmerizing. The director is a hard-core horror fan, and he has jammed Crimson Peak full of references to the genre. Like: the lead character’s last name is Cushing (Peter Cushing was a famous actor); the film looks often like the cool old AIP Edgar Allen Poe pictures from the early 1960’s starring Vincent Price (The Pit and the Pendulum [1961] is the best, but The Fall of the House of Usher [1960] is the one that will come to mind); and there are whiffs of other famous movies, too (The Innocents, The Haunting, and The Others to name just three). For the finest movie nod, see Best scene. The CGI ghosts are spectral yet explicitly graphic. There are a couple of scare jumps and, for a long time, there is little to believe this film would veer into gore territory. But it does.

Atmospheric scarefest Starring: Mia Wasikowska, Jessica Chastain, Tom Hiddleston Directed by: Guillermo del Toro Rated R for: violence, gore, language, brief nudity, lots o’ stabbin’ email: movieman@azlenews.net

... on a scale of 1-10

Movie Man Despite her father’s (Jim Beaver) misgivings, she falls for the wiles of a visiting baronet, Thomas (Tom Hiddleston). When Beaver is murdered, Wasikowska heads off to England, wed to Hiddleston who is always accompanied by his sinister sister Lucille (Jessica Chastain). The siblings’ decrepit mansion is slowly sinking into a mysterious red funk that has manufacture potential if Hiddleston can get his mining machine to work. Inside the rotting house, Wasikowska begins seeing hideous ghosts who seem to be trying to communicate something to her. Meanwhile, there’s something weird in the tea and

porridge Chastain feeds Wasikowska. A prior boyfriend doctor (Charlie Hunnam) is hunting Wasikowska down, and he shows up just when things hit the fan between the trio in the crumbling mansion – it’s not the ghosts everyone has to worry about.

The scene sits for a moment before the red ball comes rolling out of the darkness back into the bathroom to Wasikowska. It’s a scene right out of The Changeling, an unnerving ghost story from 1980 starring George C. Scott – except this movie used a staircase as the delivery system.

It’s fall, ya’ll!

There are over 45 different varieties of pumpkin.

They range in color like red, yellow, and green, and have names like Hooligan, Cotton Candy, and Orange Smoothie.

“Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.” – Albert Camus

Pumpkins are 90 percent water

And that makes them low calorie. One cup of canned pumpkin only has 83 calories and only half a gram of fat.

Pumpkins are fruits.

More specifi cally, they are a winter squash in the family Cucurbitacae, which includes cucumbers and melons.

H OGLE

INSURANCE GROUP 817-444-0561

www.HogleInsurance.com

The word “pumpkin” showed up for the first time in the fairy tale Cinderella

A French explorer in 1584 fi rst called them “gros melons,” which translates into Latin as “pepon,” meaning “large melon.” It wasn’t until the 17th century that they were first referred to as pumpkins.

Light my ﬁre BY NATALIE GENTRY As the weather cools down the many people believe that the dangers of outdoor burning lessen because of the drop in temperature. However, this is not the case. It’s not unusual for counties to issue burn bans around this time of year and, in fact, Tarrant County is under a burn ban until Nov. 16, and Parker Coun-

ty has issued a burn ban ending Oct. 23. During a burn ban, no burning of any type is allowed. But, even when there isn’t a ban is in place, there are still some general rules residents are required to follow before outdoor burning. Outdoor burning guidelines • The City of Springtown has

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 fi re is progressing. • Don’t burn any electrical insulation, treated lumber, plas-

tics, 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.
