on various cargo, tanker and passenger ships. Martin worked his way through college as a merchant seaman. Martin studied art and English at various colleges and universities, obtaining a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree with honors, from the University of Montana, in 1967. While still a student he taught elementary school at Hawk’s Home School in Carter County in 1962-63. He taught eight grades, all subjects in this one room rural school. Many of his students and their parents consider that the year which he taught their school was the best learning experience of their lives. Martin felt that his primary accomplishment there was helping the rural teacher’s of Carter County accept and learn to teach a pilot program in “The New Math” being tested in that district, that year. After teaching in rural SE Montana for a year, he got a Max Beckmann scholarship to attend the Brooklyn Museum’s Art School. It was while he was in Brooklyn that Martin met Suzy Clark. Suzy and Martin were married in 1965 and continue their marriage, “till death do us part.” They had a single natural child, Brynn Holt. They also opened their home for foster care and one foster child, Raymond Martin, lived with them for 10 years. Martin was accepted to the University of Arizona in 1967. He was awarded a teaching assistantship at the school. While attending the U of A, he focused
on art, and filmmaking. He and Suzy made two landmark films during that time. One, Rock It, featured a concert by Jim Morrison and The Doors as well as several other rock and roll shows from across the west during that seminal year of 1967. In 1969, they filmed Andy Warhol and company making Lonesome Cowboys, which was partially filmed at Rancho Linda Vista in Oracle. During the course of his life, Martin made hundreds of movies and shot thousands of hours of film and video tape. He and Suzy proposed a video documentary for Montana’s Constitutional Convention. Later Martin made movies featuring various famous artist’s working in clay. Martin’s presence as an observer in video was well noticed in the arts community throughout Montana, and elsewhere. Martin and his family lived in Augusta, Montana where he set up and operated Peerless Pottery for many years. He also volunteered time with the Augusta PTA, and the Augusta Youth Center. When he and his family moved to Helena in 1976, he assisted many local arts organizations as they built and expanded their programs. He was particularly active with the Myrna Loy Center and the Archie Bray Foundation. He was one of the founding board members of Helena Civic Television, Cable channel 11 and 19 in Helena. Recently the main production studio, which Martin built, was named in his honor. The Myrna Loy Center short film and video

festival also bears his name as a tribute to his passion and support for grass roots media and video art production. Although art was Martin’s passion, he was a visionary builder and contractor. He founded and operated Montana Art Works as a diverse company dedicated to the construction of art through building. He designed and build many solar and energy responsive buildings including solar greenhouses, and earth-sheltered homes. All of his building design paid attention to the position of the sun to add heat gain to homes in the winter, with proper shading devices and methodologies to cut off solar penetration during the non heating season. He designed and built the New Western Bungalo as a universal design, solar and energy responsive residence that used proper siting of the house to achieve the best energy
responsive attitude. Martin also strove to create buildings that were attractive and beautifully finished. The last years of Montana Art Works building efforts lay in the construction of landscapes. Martin used the natural local stone to create exterior land forms as a basis for plantings that would enhance the overall presentation of a building in its environment. His son Brynn continues this work. Martin is preceded in death by his father Clifford, his sister Eileen (Holt) Larson, brothers Burton and Clifford. He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Suzy; his son, Brynn; his mother, Ada Reed Holt who is 99 years young; and numerous nieces and nephews. A memorial service was held Sept. 10 in Helena, Montana, at Holt’s Quarry.

Sign thefts prompt added patrols in SaddleBrooke As the political climate grows more competitive, the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office would like to remind citizens to respect each other’s right to display political signs. Recent thefts of a particular sign around the SaddleBrooke area have prompted the Sheriff’s Office to increase patrols in the region in an effort to deter future thefts and catch the person(s) responsible. The signs have monetary value, thus, anyone who removes any sign will be arrested and charged with theft. Anyone who defaces a political sign will be arrested and charged with criminal damage; both are class 2 misdemeanors. PCSO Lieutenant John Ellsworth, who oversees operations in the region stated, “Sheriff Babeu has repeatedly made it clear the rule of law will be enforced. I have issued a region-wide directive to all patrol staff and supervisors within Region B to be on special alert for any criminal activity involving the tampering with, or removal of political signage. Enforcement action will be taken against

any identified violators.” Sheriff Paul Babeu added, “Freedom of speech is a right every American has and are
protected by law to express, regardless of their political views or affiliation. We will protect that right for all citi-
zens and prosecute violators to the full extent of the law.” Anyone wishing to display a sign is encouraged to first check to ensure they are doing so on public property. Below is the Arizona law which pertains directly to political signs.

Some of these could have (and probably did) appeared on the 100 best works of fiction list that was released several years back. Actually, these and many others were banned around the United States. Banned Books Week (BBW) will be celebrated at the San Manuel Junior-Senior High School Sept. 26-30. This is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of the First Amendment. Held during the last week of September, Banned Books Week highlights the benefits of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the harms of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted banning of books across the United States. Intellectual freedom—the freedom to access information and express ideas, even if the information and ideas might be considered unorthodox or unpopular—provides the foundation for Banned Books Week. BBW stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of unorthodox or unpopular viewpoints for all
who wish to read and access them. The books featured during Banned Books Week have been targets of attempted banning. Fortunately, while some books were banned or restricted, in a majority of cases the books were not banned, all thanks to the efforts of librarians, teachers, booksellers and members of the community to retain the books in the library collections. Imagine how many more books might be challenged—and possibly banned or restricted—if librarians, teachers, and booksellers across the country did not use Banned Books Week each year to teach the importance of our First Amendment rights and the power of literature and to draw attention to the danger that exists when restraints are imposed on the availability of information in a free society. High school librarian Maria Lopez invites students in to see some books that have been challenged or banned in other parts of the country and world. You can also check out some of these books by visiting a used or new bookstore.

Miners roll out to a 48 – 0 rout of the Braves
By Frank Smith The San Manuel Miners varsity football team rolled out to a 48 – 0 rout of the San Carlos Braves last Friday night to improve to a record of 4 – 0 heading into a homecoming match up with Miami. The Miners scored on their opening drive of the night after six plays and 62 yards - when running back Jared Gonzalez punched the ball in from one yard out for the touchdown. The point after touchdown kick was no good for a 6 – 0 lead with 7:33 on the scoreboard. The Braves received the kick off their own 20 yard line where they were forced to punt three plays later for a three and out.
San Carlos lined up for the punt, defensive linemen Rene Ortega broke through the line to block the punt giving the ball to the Miners at the Braves 14 yard line The Miners gave the ball back to the Braves after the San Manuel failed to complete a pass at the goal line from the Braves five yard line on fourth down. With the Miners giving the ball up on downs, the San Manuel defense went to work holding the Braves to five yards on the drive-forcing the punt. The Miners lined up at the San Carlos 34 yard line after the punt. Running back Daniel Perez ran the ball down to the 14 yard line for a 20 yard line

Moving the ball back to the 37 yard line-running back Gonzalez broke free for a long gain down to the Braves 30 yard line for a 33 yard gain. After a series of penalties that went for the Miners as well as against them, the Miners faced a fourth down and 19 when quarterback Marcos Sierra dropped back for the pass. A Braves defender knocked the ball out of Sierra’s hand.
Running back Vincent Valdez picked up the ball at the Braves 31 yard line and ran it down to the San Carlos 18 yard line. This would set up another touchdown for the Miners when Sierra took a broken play, keeping the ball heading down the left side of the field for the 18 yard scamper into the end zone. Perez would run the ball in for the two point conversion, the Miners extending the lead to 20 – 0 with 2:26 remaining in the half. The Miners kicked off to the Braves where they began their drive at the San Carlos 31 yard line.

The Miners could not capitalize on the turnover driving down to the Braves 10 yard line after a run by Sierra to the 21 yard line and a pass to tight end Jonathan Croci to the 10 yard line where the Miners ran out of time in the half.

The Miners inserted the second team unit to finish the remainder of the game, where the defense held the Braves for the shut out and Anthony Lopez scored
another touchdown for the Miners for the final score of 48 – 0. The Miners amassed 374 total offensive yards, 363 rushing and 14 yards passing.

It was our first road game of the season and we just came out flat. Once we made our adjustments at halftime the guys played a lot better and blew the game wide open. We have a tough game this week against Miami for Homecoming. Come out and support the team by wearing Red.” The Miners will host the Miami Vandals on Friday night for homecoming. Kick off is slated for 6 p.m.

Lady Miners win two, lose two on the court By Frank Smith The San Manuel Lady Miners varsity volleyball had a very busy week as they hosted Immaculate Heart on Tuesday and Florence on Wednesday; the ladies then went on the road to Kearny on Thursday and Hayden on Sept. 14. The Lady Miners won two out of the three region contests, taking wins over Immaculate Heart, Ray then falling to Florence and Hayden. On Sept. 6, the ladies welcomed Immaculate Heart, winning the contest three games to two. In the first game the Lady Miners lost 25 – 21. The ladies also lost the second game but the ladies would rally back to win three straight 25 – 19, 25 – 21 and 15-8 in the tie breaker. Stepping up to the net for the ladies was Alexis Garibay with eight digs, three kills and 32 assists; Sierra Cruce with three digs and nine kills; Felicia Gomez with four digs, two kills and 13 assists; Tisha Reidhead with seven digs, three kills and 25 assists; Alexis Garcia with 24 digs and two kills; Karly Pena with 28 digs and one kill; Anjelica Zuniga with one dig, 14 kills and one assist; and Mireya Tamayo with seven digs, and 19 assists. In the game against Florence on Sept. 7, the ladies knew they would have a tough task ahead of them with the Lady Gophers paying a visit to the San Manuel Gymnasium. The Lady Miners lost in three straight sets 25-13, 25-9 and 25-9. The ladies just could not seem to find a rhythm taking the loss. Contributing for the ladies was Garibay with four digs and nine assists; Sierra Cruce with three blocks, two digs and one kill; Gomez with nine digs and one assist; Reidhead with five assists; Garcia with 18 digs; Pena with 17 digs; Zuniga with one kill; Kadi Monfred with two digs; and Tamayo with two digs and five assists. At Ray on Sept. 8, the Lady Miners beat the Lady Bearcats three games to one to take the
match. In the first game the ladies won 23 - 25. They also won the second game 22 – 25 but Ray came back and took the third game 25 – 22; and in the fourth game the Lady Miners held off the Lady Bear Cats 21 – 25 for the win. Stepping up for the ladies were Garibay with 18 digs, three kills and 22 assists; Cruce with three blocks, nine digs and two kills; Gomez with seven digs and three assists; Reidhead with eight digs and 10 assists; Garcia with one block, 17 digs, one kill and six assists; Pena with 18 digs and one kill; Zuniga with four blocks, one dig and five kills; Tamayo with six digs and 13 assists; and Ana Zuniga with four digs. “We are slow on and off the net and we struggled to get good passes to our setters causing difficulty running offense, especially in the Florence game. We are playing well as a team though,” Coach Deanne Brewer said. “This was a tough week with back to back games and no time to review the previous game. We have a less busy week next week and are hoping to work on some of the plays that we struggled with this week.” On Sept. 14, the Lady Miners continued their road trip to Hayden to face the Lady Lobos, losing in five games. In the first game, the ladies lost 25 – 16. The ladies then rallied to win the second game 25 – 18. San Manuel lost again 25 – 16 in the third game, hung on for a 25 – 22 win in the fourth game and could not overcome the Lady Lobos in the fifth game losing 15 – 10. Contributing for the ladies was MacKenzie White with 14 digs, three kills and 42 assists; Alexis Garibay with 12 digs and one kill; Sierra Cruce with four blocks, two digs and eight kills; Felicia Gomez with three digs and 18 assists; Tisha Reidhead with eight digs, one kill, 38 assists and one Ace; Alexis Garcia with 16 digs and two Aces; Karly Pena with 22 digs; See Lady Miners, Page 11

Miner swimmers continue their winning ways at Coolidge and Canyon State The Miner swimmers traveled to Coolidge for a dual meet on Tuesday, Sept. 13. This was the first dual meet ever for San Manuel High School Swimming. Since last year was a trial year for the high school swim team, no dual meets were scheduled and the Miners were added to existing meets. The boys easily won the meet 60-39 by winning eight of the 11 events. Three boys won both individual events that they competed in. John Bribiescas won the 500 Freestyle setting a new school record and led the Miner one-two finish in the 200 Freestyle with teammate PJ Mortensen. Both the 50 Freestyle and 100 Freestyle were very close, but Colten Smith managed to win both by getting his hand to the wall first in both races. Coolidge swimmer Erik Heet is bound for state in the 100 Backstroke and had not been beaten in the Backstroke this year until he faced Wayne Newman. In a highly anticipated race, both swimmers went stroke for stroke and executed flawless turns until Newman put Heet away on the final See Swimming, Page 12

The boys varsity team took eighth place out of 12 teams and the Girls Team did not have enough girls to score as a team. For the girls team, Maritza Estrada finished 25th with a time of 27:58.4, Emmy Lou Clark finished 32nd with a time of 30:23.8 and Victoria Madrid finished 34th with See Runners, Page 13

Continued from Page 9 Anjelica Zuniga with two blocks and nine kills; and Ana Zuniga with two digs. “Overall, we are improving. Our back row is pretty solid, but we have to work to improving our blocking and hitting at the net. We have a couple girls that are able to set, but just don’t move fast enough, so this is definitely an area of improvement. The sets are getting better daily and we are mishandling the ball less when we get into position,” said Brewer. “We should have won, but we had a few mental mistakes that ultimately cost us the match. We have the Florence tournament this Saturday, which will allow us to work on things. I’m looking forward to it!” The Miners hosted Green Fields on Tuesday and will travel to Miami today with the JV playing at 5 and the varsity at 6 p.m. The ladies will return home to host Ray on Sept. 27 at 5 p.m. JV and 6 p.m. Varsity.

Utility assistance grants, discounts offered
Applications for utility assistance grants will be taken on Friday, Sept. 23, in San Manuel, according to Mary Lou Rosales, Executive Director of Community Action Human Resources Agency. The special intake will take place starting at 9 a.m. at the Sun Life Family Health Center, 23 McNab Parkway. The length of time volunteers will remain at the Special Intake will be based on the number of participants present. Individuals need to arrive and sign in early as applications will be taken on a first come first serve basis. Only individuals registered by 12 noon will be considered. The event is for individuals from Mammoth, Oracle and San Manuel. Individuals from other communities will not be seen. CAHRA and local social services agencies are working together to bring you this special intake. CAHRA staff and volunteers will meet with low-income individuals who meet income guidelines. The services are aimed at helping households to stretch their income. “We are limiting our applications to Low Income Home Energy Assistance (LIHEAP) utility assistance only. Households needing rent and other services must call for a regular appointment. While we understand that the need is great, we are committed to providing LIHEAP assistance to the most households possible. Considering other requests takes up valuable time that we could use to serve more households with utility assistance. It is also imperative that persons applying for LIHEAP services come prepared with required documentation so that a determination of eligibility can be made See Grants, Page 14

By Frank Smith The San Manuel Junior High Miners football team trounced the visiting Globe Tigers 22 – 6 on Sept. 7 for the second straight win of the young season. The Miners scored on their first possession with running back Ysidrio Wasko setting up the Miners at the one yard line after running the ball in from the Globe 39 on a counter. Stephen Faulstich took the hand off from seventh grade quarterback Frankie Renteria on the next play for the one yard touchdown run. Faulstitch also converted the two point conversion for the lead at 8 – 0 with 4:17 on the clock in the first quarter. Faulstich came up big from the defensive side of the ball to knock the ball loose on Globe’s next possession with Armando Lopez recovering the fumble. This would set up another Miners score with the offense poised at the Globe 35 yard line. Wasko set up another score this time

with a reverse from the 35 down to the 15 yard line. Faulstitch then took another hand off from Renteria two plays later and ran the ball in from eight yards out for the touchdown with 5:04 in the second quarter. Faulstich also converted the two point conversion for a 16 – 0 lead at the half. In the third quarter, the Tigers got their first and only score of the night on a defensive play. The Tiger linebacker stripped the ball out of a Miners running back hands and sprinted 55 yards back the other way for the touchdown. The two point conversion was no good for a 6 – 16 score with 7:40 on the clock. The Miners final score of the night when lineman Antonio Gallego recovered a loose ball giving the Miners back the ball at the Globe 15 yard line. Four plays later running back Armando Lopez took the ball up the middle and scored on a four yard run into the end zone. The two point conversion try was no good for the final score of 22 – 6. “The defense played
against Globe. Globe’s only score came from a fumble recovery.” Coach Dave Jungbluth said. “I thought our offensive line did a great job controlling the line of scrimmage.” The Miners traveled to Superior on Sept. 13, bringing the home the win 36 – 14. It was a big accomplishment considering Superior beat Ray 38 - 8 and Hayden 32-0. Stephen Faulstich and Isidro Wasko each had two touchdowns. Wasko ran a kick off back after Superior scored their second touchdown which took away any momentum the Panthers may have had. Coach Jungbluth said, “Physically, the offensive and defensive line dominated Superior. Our tackling was not as good as I would like. We have to improve this week in that area if we are to have a chance against an undefeated Push Ridge team.” The Miners had this week off with a bye but will return to action on Sept. 27 with San Manuel hosting Pusch Ridge at 6 p.m.
Lady Cougars post losses at Superior The Mountain Vista Lady Cougars volleyball teams traveled to Superior last week. The seventh grade team lost two games to none.

Life lessons are sometimes messy By Jennifer R. Carnes Just like life itself, life lessons can be messy sometimes. This was something that the universe set out to teach me just last week. Let me set the stage … Thursday evening couldn’t have been any busier. School wasn’t quite done but we had to cover two public meetings, one at six in Oracle and one at seven in Mammoth. The Mammoth Town Council meeting was uncharacteristically short and so we headed back home at just past 7:30 p.m. to try to get Lauren’s school work done. Our pregnant Schnauzer,
Penny, seemed especially uncomfortable that night, so I settled down in our “comfy” chair with her for what we hoped would be a quiet rest of the evening. My husband was out at his class and wouldn’t be home until late. About 10 p.m. Penny jumped down from the chair and went potty on the floor – or at least that was what I first thought. I put her out and started cleaning it up. When I realized she hadn’t urinated and that, in fact, her water had broken I got her back inside and into her kennel that we had set up as a whelping box. Keep in mind that neither Penny or I had any clue what
to do. I hoped she would figure it all out before I needed to. I’ve been calling on my mom and stepdad quite a bit to help us through having puppies. I’m forty-hmmm and I’ve never once had a dog that had puppies. This was as new to me as it was to Penny, not to mention my 12-year-old daughter. As soon as I knew we were about to have puppies, I called them and put them on speaker phone. No way was I doing this on my own! So I’m sitting on the floor watching Penny like she was a bomb set to explode at any minute when she jumps up and starts whining. She turned
around a couple of times in the kennel and on one of the passes, there it was – the first baby! Now what? It was just sticking to her and not actually going anywhere! Penny was freaked! I was freaked! And Lauren kept yelling, “I want to see!” So Lauren came into the room to watch, the baby was finally born and I tried to calm down the new mother who was shaking and not paying the slightest bit of attention to the new baby squirming at her feet. My mother’s on the phone, talking all of us down off the ledge.

GLOW again! An ‘after the storm’ event sp..utter .. wipe .. “Excuse me while I just wring the water out of this announcement.” .. wring .. “Ah, there, that’s much better. On to the story, proper, then.” Once upon a time, there was a ranch, but, not just any ordinary ranch, where cows frolicked, no! This was a special ranch, where things glowed at night, walk paths were set out for walking upon, and, for the price of $10 most any adult at all, even the strangely dressed ones – Strike that! Especially the strangely dressed ones! - could come inside and feast their eyes on much art that was glowsome, listen to much music and eat much food that would make their hearts glow, as well, in varying fashions. It was a lovely ranch, indeed. That is, until the night the wicked rains
came and poured down on all and what wished they were sundry. “What a weekend! GLOW 2011 held on Sept. 9 and 10 was impacted by unpredictable severe weather conditions beyond our control, especially, on Saturday night. Mother Nature had a show of her own featuring lighting, wind, rain, mud, hail and even the possibility of tornadoes. The forecast kept changing rapidly and despite our optimistic “rain or shine” approach the resulting storms thwarted our ability to present GLOW as fully as we all envisioned. There were power outages in some places, risk to sensitive electronics and equipment that prevented participants from setting up and many who planned to attend decided to stay safely at home instead
of venturing out,” said Sharon Holnback. Glasses were fogged, walk paths became slip slides, electric guitars became frightsome things to wield. The people of the ranch, and their guests, tried to fight through the rain, tried to out wait it, tried to dress for it or take shelter from it, all to no avail. The night was not without some small success but it was mostly small from having been shrunk by the rain! “That being said” continued Sharon, “in typical GLOW fashion our amazing community shone brightly. We all did our best and made the most of the challenging conditions.” Then, there was the next night, when the rain got serious, and tried to make the ranch into a swimming pool. Was it wet? Oh
yes. Was it inspiring to swim in? No, Ma’am, no Sir, it was not! Still, one could pop in here and see some lovely dry, glowing artwork, pop in there to see some more, admire the drenched a capellas and a good, if permanently damp, time could be achieved. “Thanks to the tireless support of the many artists, musicians, performers volunteers and vendors. Both nights, people came out with a spirit of adventure, a positive attitude and had a great time even in the mud. It was crazy and wonderful. At the same time, it was disappointing after all the effort and energy that was contributed. We wanted our good GLOW experience which we got, but in a different way than intended,” contributed Holnback.
However, this little ranch dreamed of a finer day, when its inhabitants and guests would be free of the drubbing rain which beat down on their heads, and, now, they hope, the day is nigh. On Saturday, Sept. 24, from 7 – 11 p.m., Glow again!, an after the storm event, will be open to the public. Tickets are $10 per person, with advance tickets being honored or cash at the gate, for adults, or $5 for those under 18 with a guardian or free for children under the age of three. The address for this wondrous, hopefully bone dry, event is Triangle L Ranch 2805 North Triangle L Ranch Road Oracle, AZ 85623. For more information, visit www.triangleLranch.com. Sharon Holnback describes this after the storm event as “a
condensed GLOW experience on the night of Sept. 24, from 7-11 p.m. A chance to fulfill our GLOWing dreams! A chance for all the GLOW supporters who missed attending to come out and enjoy. An opportunity to spruce up some of the installations, the Triangle L grounds, maybe even improve on our pieces, costumes and have some new artwork in place. We will focus mostly on the area of the sculpture path, gallery, gift shop with a stage on the patio for performances and music. All are invited. Keep checking the website for updates and a schedule of participants and performers... GO GLOW!” Get ready, then, to get your GLOW on but maybe pack a rain coat, just in case!
