FROM THE EDITOR The name Sunday in the Park by Old Main is already pretty descriptive. But after attending last week’s program, I would suggest altering it to Sunday in the Shady Parts of the Park by Old Main. With temperatures in the mid-90s, the majority of people there to take in the lecture by former USU history professor Ross Peterson clustered together beneath two groups of trees, creating two large, distinctive sections. It seemed only appropriate that Peterson, who will soon publish a new book on the Central Utah Project, was speak-
ing on the subject of “Water in the West.” Without water in what Peterson declared to be “the best watered valley in the Great Basin,” we’d obviously have no trees in Cache Valley, and therefore, no shade. The audience, primarily made up of summer citizens from even an even drier climate to the south, clearly found his program compelling, and couldn’t wait to ask Peterson — who held a small bottle of water throughout the lecture — questions at the end. Peterson was the seventh of nine speakers scheduled to address the Sunday in the Park by Old Main gathering this summer. Beth Foley, dean of USU’s College of Education & Human Services is slated to talk this week, followed by James Thomas of the College of Agriculture, who will
speak on “Is There Enough Food Now and Will There Be in the Future?” According to series director Gary Packer, attendance has been up this year. “All sessions have been well attended,” Packer noted. “Such attendance is a reflection of the programs and is a wonderful compliment to the excellent speaker resources in the Logan area and their willingness to share with others. “I hear regularly from summer citizens about how impressed they are with the Logan community — both friendliness and competence in the arts, education and business.” Not to mention, a lot more shade than say, Tucson.

The Bridger Folk Music Society presents a concert with Rupert Wates at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, July 19, at Crumb Brothers Artisan Bread, 291 S. 300 West. Tickets are $13 and are available via PayPal at bridgerfolk.org, by calling 757-3468 or you take your chances at the door. Seating is limited; advance purchase is recommended. Wates has wowed audiences all over the world with his amazing voice and his astonishing guitar skills. He has the four keys needed to be a superb singer/songwriter: a pitch-perfect voice that’s soothing as well as enticing; lyrics that are pure literature; tunes that hook you after a few notes; and hands that pull melodies out of a guitar that seem almost magical. Born in London, Wates has been a full time songwriter since 1992. He has written songs for various artists. Wayne Slater-Lunsford, writing in Concerts In Your Home reviews, said Rupert is “one of those rare artists who leaves an audience better than he found them.”
– Senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian on “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” (Page 11)
PET OF THE WEEK Available for adoption
Rupert Wates will sing Saturday night at Crumb Brothers Artisan Bread.
Ryan Moore of AMP The Magazine wrote that Wates is “more compelling, more sympathetic and more emotionally accessible than many other modern performers.” Wates averages 170 live
shows a year, and he has performed in every state in America to critical acclaim. Since September 2006, he has been based in the USA, where his music has been warmly received. He has released six
albums, and his recordings have received outstanding reviews and continue to be aired on college and mainstream radio all over the world. Visit rupertwates.com for more information.

Pet: Jingles From: Cache Humane Society Why she’s so lovable: Jingles was brought to us because her previous owner passed away. This sweet girl is upset about it, and she is still looking for someone to fill that spot in her heart. In Jingles previous house, she was an inside-outside cat and she is a great mouser. Along with catching mice, she was also notorious for catching birds, so they gave her a collar with a bell on it hence the name Jingles. She is a very sweet cat and loves taking naps on your lap. If she sounds like the cat for you, come hold her at the shelter today. Call the Cache Humane Society at 792-3920.

Now, with two kids running around the house, Annie and Jay have slowly drifted apart without

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. The main character of a “Cars”/”Planes” movie learns wisdom, through numerous montages, from a wise, old curmudgeon with a secretive past ripe for exploiting. That’s the plot of “Cars,” “Planes” and now “Planes: Fire & Rescue.” Dusty Crophopper (Dane Cook) — how did his parents not think they were pigeonholing him into one career? — has overcome his unfortunate name and is now a world-famous racer. He’s winning races, schmoozing with celebs and living it big back at home. Then, well, Dusty gets a little rusty. His gearbox breaks. Racing is seemingly out of the question. What ever will he do? The small town Dusty lives in welcomes him back with heavy hearts. He’s dejected, but as with all these movies, the main character must learn something valuable by trying something different.

A CELEBRATION OF SOCCER Youth teams converge on area for annual Cache Valley Cup tournament
Y
outh soccer has flourished in Cache Valley for quite some time now, and the annual Cache Valley Cup is a big indicator of this. The Cache Valley Cup, a tournament for players between the divisions of U8 and U18, celebrated its 10th anniversary a week ago with a record turnout. Approximately 3,500 players flocked to six different venues — Cedar Ridge Middle School, Elk Ridge Park, Meadow View Park, Mount Logan Middle School, BlackHawk Park and Sky View High School — for the tournament, which was contested from July 9-12. When the Cache Valley Cup started in 2005, it featured 50 teams from 10 different divisions. This year’s tournament featured 40 different divisions, evenly split between boys and girls, and 200 teams. A whopping 359 games — ranging between 40 and 70 minutes (except for championship matches, which were 10 minutes longer depending on age) were held during the four-day tourney. “I love, I love it,” said Terri Baker, who along with her husband, Dale, was the driving force behind this event becoming a reality in 2005. “... It’s really rewarding. I mean, the whole idea in the first place was to organize this so that we could bring more competition into the valley to support our local teams, so they’re not just playing themselves over and over. And ... now our local teams are in the minority in the tournament, so we’re accomplishing that in a bigger way than we ever thought.” The Cache Valley Cup is organized by Northern Utah United (NUU) — formerly known as District 7 Soccer — with help from South Cache Soccer and the Infinity Soccer Club. NUU is the driving force behind youth soccer at all levels of play in both Cache and Box Elder counties, and is a member of the Utah Youth Soccer Association.
helping parents better understand rules of the sport, such as what constitutes a handball or the offside call, so there is less arguing from the stands or the sidelines during matches. “That’s what the EXPO is about is to educate the parents and the adults,” said Baker, who is the programs administrator for NUU. One of the most popular aspects of the Cache Valley Cup is the Friday night carnival, which has been a part of the tournament since its inception. The carnival at the inaugural Cache Valley Cup featured a low-key barbecue prepared by two of the participating teams. Needless to say, the carnival has evolved into something much, much larger. This year’s carnival was held in Smithfield at the Sky View High School football-soccer field and the practice field just outside the stadium.

Three of the four offerings of the Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre’s 2014 season comprise an enjoyable lesson in the evolution of Broadway shows in the 20th Century. “The Student Prince,” which opened July 11, is a prime example of an operetta, a late 19th century theatrical style that blurred the lines between opera and popular music of that era. While these musical hybrids continued to be popular in America in the early 20th century, they were largely eclipsed by songand-dance revues with little dramatic content by the 1930s. The premiere of “Oklahoma!” in 1943 is generally considered to be the birth of the modern American musical. That production, which built on theatrical innovations first seen in Jerome Kern’s “Show Boat” in the late 1920s, is renowned as Broadway’s first fully successful integration of singing, dancing and acting to achieve a dramatic stage experience. The UFOMT’s current production of “Oklahoma!” debuted July 10. In the midst of a golden age of modern American musical comedy, the so-called rock opera was pioneered by impresario Andrew Lloyd Webber beginning in the 1970s. The local debut of “Les Misérables” on July 12 is living proof that these glitzy musical extravaganzas don’t have to be devoid of heart and soul. “The Student Prince” When a horde of actors stand around singing their hearts out while nothing much happens, that’s an operetta.

Festival delivers a taste of Broadway
This UFOMT production faithfully revives the dated theatrical style that reached its zenith in “The Student Prince” by Sigmund Romberg. Luckily, once a modern audience adjusts to an operetta’s glacial pace, that viewing experience can be a pleasantly sedate one for all concerned. The paper-thin plot of “The Student Prince” is that Prince Karl Franz of Karlsberg desperately wants to sow some wild oats while taking a higher education break from being royalty. But his elderly chaperone and a snooty valet complicate things, as does an inconvenient fiancée. And then there’s all that typically
European hand-wringing about class distinctions between royalty and commoners to worry about. After his recent villainous turn in the UFOMT opera “Vanessa,” tenor Andrew Bidlack obviously enjoys this opportunity to smile, throw back his shoulders and joyously sing as Karl Franz. The prince’s love interest is the barmaid Kathie, who is enchantingly portrayed by Emma-Grace Dunbar. Vanessa Ballam is elegant as always as Princess Margaret, a royal cousin who is problematically engaged to the prince. Richard Zuch and Kevin Nakatani provide memorable supporting characterizations as the avuncular Dr. Engel and the comically conniving servant Lutz. When they finally get around to it, those lead performers deliver compelling renditions of trademark Romberg arias, including “Golden Days,” “Overhead the Moon is Beaming” and “Deep in My Heart, Dear.” Even in the midst of such talented company, Ms. Dunbar’s vocals are hauntingly beautiful.

“The Student Prince” is one of four Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre productions being presented this summer at the Ellen Eccles Theatre.
But this operetta is also packed with rousing choral numbers which give the orchestra under the direction of Barbara Day Turner and the ensemble performers recurring opportunities to take center stage. Together, they bring the boisterous fun of the Heidelberg collegiate scene to vivid life and provide a welcome diversion from the play’s
slow-moving and predictable plot. Kudos also to Amanda Profaizer for magnificent costuming throughout this production, especially in the Act III ballroom scene. Matinee performances of “The Student Prince” are slated at the Ellen Eccles Theatre on July 25 and Aug. 9. An evening performance will be offered on Aug. 1.
“Oklahoma!” The UFOMT’s production of “Oklahoma!” is a sensational tribute to this time-honored Broadway classic. Modern production of “Oklahoma!” are sometimes marred by halfhearted performances from cast members who view the musical as simplistic and corny. From the opening bars of “Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin’” to the show’s triumphant final curtain, however, it is obvious that this production is in the hands of talented professionals who love this miraculous musical and are enthusiastically dedicated to sharing their deep appreciation of its value with local audiences. The musical’s iconic opening tune is sung by UFOMT newcomer Wes Mason as the love-struck cowpoke Curly. Mason See TASTE on Page 11

Books ‘The Bone Orchard’ is a satisfying mystery By Bruce Desilva Associated Press
Mike Bowditch’s recklessness and insubordination, along with his struggle with a series of personal tragedies, seemed to make him a bad match for his job as a Maine game warden. So, as the fifth novel in this fine series opens, it comes as no great surprise that Mike has quit law enforcement and taken refuge as a fishing guide in the state’s great North Woods. But Sgt. Kathy Frost, Mike’s former mentor in the warden service, is in trouble. A suicidal Afghanistan war vet she
was assigned to help has been shot dead. The exsoldier’s politically connected parents and former army buddies blame her. And she is under investigation for her role in the affair.
Taste Continued from Page 10 has a melodic baritone voice that is strong enough to make the entire Ellen Eccles Theatre vibrate. Mason co-stars with Leah Edwards as the farmer’s daughter Laurey. Ms. Edwards is an exquisite soprano and as winsome as any actress who has ever played that role. She also shares intense romantic chemistry with Mason, making their scenes together and duets an absolute joy. And they can dance too! Another cast standout is Caitlin Beitel as the hilariously hotto-trot Ado Annie. Ms. Beitel is an adorable little scene-stealer, which is quite a feat when she shares so much stage time with the marvelous Stefan Espinosa as the rascal Ali Hakim. Bray Wilkins is equally excellent as the perpetually exasperated
Thinking he might be able to help, or at least offer a sympathetic ear, Mike drives to her cabin and comes under sniper fire in her driveway. He finds his old friend critically wounded. A civilian now, Mike has no business getting involved. As reckless and impetuous as always, he dives in anyway. The authorities suspect the dead soldier’s old army buddies for the attack on Kathy. Mike casts his net wider as he pursues the case from the urban landscape of Portland to the desolate farming villages of Aroostook County. As always, Doiron describes
Will Parker, the third corner of Ado Annie’s perplexing love triangle. The heavy of “Oklahoma!” is the despicable farmhand Jud, played with an utterly convincing aura of menace by the endlessly versatile Kevin Nakatani. The authenticity of this production is enhanced by the fact that gifted director Maggie L. Harrer has thoroughly immersed her cast in the folk culture of the American West. Thanks to that effort, there isn’t a false note anywhere in terms of dialect, dancing styles or mannerisms. As usual, the UFOMT’s leading performers are wellsupported by a strong ensemble of adults and children who contribute to the success of this production with vibrant singing and spirited dancing. When combined with lush orchestral accompaniment under the baton of conductor Karen Keltner, all these
his state so vividly that it becomes not just the setting but also a character in its own right. As Mike’s list of suspects grows, he digs deeply into Kathy’s past. Along the way, he also keeps running into people from his own past, including old friends, old enemies and an ex-wife. The encounters lead to much soul-searching — so much that for a good portion of the book, the biggest mystery Mike confronts isn’t who shot Kathy, it’s what kind of man Mike has become. This makes “The Bone Orchard” both a rich exploration of character and a satisfying mystery story.
positive elements make “Oklahoma!” a perfect show. Additional evening performances of “Oklahoma!” are slated at the Ellen Eccles Theatre on July 19 and also on Aug. 7 and 8. Matinees will be offered on July 24, 26 and Aug. 1. “Les Misérables” Not surprisingly, “Les Misérables” is the crown jewel of the UFOMT’s 2014 season. The English version of this operatic musical has been an audience favorite since its debut in London nearly three decades ago. The capacity crowd at the Ellen Eccles Theatre on opening night was no exception to that rule, giving the UFOMT performers a thunderous and well-deserved standing ovation. Based on the novel by Victor Hugo, “Les Misérables” is a sprawling tale of love and redemption covering a period of decades in France during the early 19th Century. With

dozens of colorful characters and a huge choral ensemble of both children and adults, our local stage often seemed too small to contain this production. But director Valerie Rachelle employed cleverly functional sets by Patrick Larsen and atmospheric lighting by Christopher Wood to give her cast elbow room. “Les Misérables” is dominated by two actors: Patrick Miller as the fugitive Jean Valjean and Daniel Cilli as his obsessive purser, Inspector Javert. Both men are gifted actors and exceptional vocalists. They each delivered towering performances. The list of performers filling the other iconic roles in this production reads like a Who’s Who of UFOMT stars past and present, including the lovely Vanessa Ballam as Fantine; Tyler Olshansky in an impressive local debut as Éponine; Lead Edwards as Cosette; Patrick Massey as Marius;
Curtis Bannister as the firebrand Enjolras; and the always enjoyable Vanessa Schukis and Stefan Espinosa providing comedy relief as the dastardly Thénardiers. The supporting and ensemble performers not only gave uniformly convincing characterizations, but also sang electrifying choral renditions of the play’s production numbers. Additional evening performances of “Les Misérables” are slated at the Ellen Eccles Theatre on July 23, 25, 26, 30, 31 and Aug. 9. Matinees will be offered on July 18, 19 and 31, as well as Aug. 7 and 8. ———

Soccer Continued from Page 9 the different activities and everybody laughing, and enjoying and relaxing.” Arguably the most anticipated event of the carnival were the coaches vs. referees matches, which take place inside the stadium. Two matches were held, with the coaches winning the first one handily, and the referees returning the favor in dominant fashion under the lights. Doyle Geddes, head coach of the Sky View boys and girls soccer programs, was there to provide commentary and sarcastic comments during the matches. Before the start of the JV coaches vs. referees game, a
flag ceremony was held, coupled with the singing of the national anthem. The Cache Valley Cup Youth Council was also honored at this time. This year’s version of the Youth Council consisted of 11 teenagers who tournament director Cassie Baker said put in an estimated 80-100 hours planning for and organizing this tournament. Those 11 teenagers were Rayna Baker, Kyler Erickson, Sarah Robinson, AJ Ottley, Faith Webster, Sam Blad, Mike Blad, Matthew Cox, Kyle Austin, Kylie Tippets and Sam Haycock. “They are phenomenal, and I can’t say enough about them,” Terri Baker said of the Youth Council. “They have done so much.” Baker also made it a point to single out 10-year-old Levi Blad, a volunteer who “has
worked his hiney off at this tournament.” As one might expect, putting on a event of this size and nature takes a lot of work. Terri Baker said approximately 60 volunteers and coordinators helped make this tourney a reality, plus an additional 20-25 sponsors. One of the those sponsors was the Cache Valley Speciality Hospital, which provided a trainer at five of the six venues for all four days at no cost to the tournament organizers. “It’s definitely a challenge. It’s a lot of work, a lot of time, thinking about a lot of little details, but when you see the kids out having a good time and you see everybody enjoying it, it makes it all worth it,” said Baker, a resident of Smithfield. “I mean, that’s why everybody in this board
does it, is it feels good to see so many people enjoy what the tournament has become.” The Cache Valley Cup has turned into a family affair for many people in the valley. For example, Youth Council members Sam, 14, and Mike Blad, 17, were referees and players at the tournament. Boys and girls are young as 12 were allowed to officiate at the event. Mike Blad, who is a seniorto-be at Mountain Crest, has fond memories of playing and officiating at the Cache Valley Cup. “I remember last year I played in this and the Mountain Crest soccer coach was the goalie, and he saw me play in a real game,” said Blad, who has competed in this tourney at least four times. “And I think that’s one of the reasons I made the (high school) team.”
Three other members of the Blad family participated in the tournament: Levi, Allan Jr. and mother, Janet. Janet Blad was on the tournament committee, which started planning the event in January, and 21-year-old Allan Jr. officiated in an impressive 18 matches, including seven in one day. Allan Jr. was one of 115 referees who was hired for the Cache Valley Cup. Terri Baker made it a point to praise Kris Hamby, who was assigned as the referee director for this tourney. Hamby did far more than assign referees to the various venues and age groups, Baker asserted. “(Hamby has) turned this into a clinic for our referees,” Baker said. “Not only are they getting games and experience and money, but they’re getting mentoring. It’s very cool.”
