Never-ending story

Last week’s article headlined “Couple settles in after messy move” omitted the end of the final quote from Judy Whittle.

The quote should have read: “It’s a fact that they need to be responsible people,” Judy said. “You need them to be trustable people when you put your trust in them.”

The News Guard regrets the error.

Do you remember Bobby Jack Fowler? He worked construction on the Oregon coast in the 1990s. He did roofing. He frequented bars.

He might have been a serial killer.

If you knew or ever even met Bobby Jack Fowler, the Lincoln County DA’s office would like to talk to you.

You may be able to help them fill in the timeline that they are constructing of Fowler’s whereabouts, in

named Bobby Jack Fowler, who died in an Oregon prison in 2006, as the lead suspect in the 1995 murders of Jennifer Esson, 15, and Kara Leas, 16. Esson and Leas were last seen alive in Newport on January 28, 1995. Their bodies were found two weeks later in an area of dense brush north of town.

Circumstantial evidence links Fowler to Esson and Leas’ deaths. Fowler was in the area both before and after the girls went missing. He is also considered

a person of interest in the 1992 murders of Sheila Swanson, 19, and Melissa Sanders, 17, both of Sweet Home. They disappeared May 3, 1992, after leaving a Beverly Beach campground in Lincoln County. Their bodies were discovered five months later, in thick brush off of a logging road near Eddyville.

There was one victim who escaped from Fowler and testified against him, which led to his imprisonment from 1996 to 2006, when he died of lung

cancer in prison. In June of 1995, five months after the murders of Esson and Leas, Bobby Jack Fowler lured a woman to his motel room at the Tides Inn, in Newport. There he punched her and slapped her and told her he was going to rape her and ‘put her in the ocean,’ according to court documents. He told her that he believed that women wanted to be raped.

With fall bringing its crisp mornings and stunning sunsets to the Oregon Coast, volunteers have been hard at work making sure the area’s beaches are ready to receive visitors.

September 22 saw volunteers removing almost 3,000 pounds of trash from local beaches during the SOLVE beach clean, while, throughout the month, ‘float fairies’ have been scattering the sands with glass keepsakes for visitors to find.

The keepsakes — glass sand dollars, crabs and starfish — are in addition to the glass floats that the fairies distribute throughout the winter as part of the Finders Keepers program run by the Lincoln City Visitor & Convention Bureau.

The added items are designed to give people an extra incentive to visit Lincoln City as the summer winds down.

To prevent instances of “fairystalking,” the identities of the program volunteers are a closely guarded secret, with fairies told to keep their duties hidden even from friends and family.

The News Guard caught up with two fairies — codenamed Merriweather and Ralphie — as they carried out their covert mission on the sands of Taft.

Merriweather said she has been

The man in charge of maintaining Lincoln County’s web of property lines has been barred from returning to his office after an investigation into “inappropriate behavior,” according to County officials.

County Commissioner Bill Hall said the County told Surveyor Thomas Hamilton on Sept.

10 not to return to his courthouse office for the remainder of his elected term, which Thomas expires at Hamilton the start of 2013.

Until then, Hamilton, who has been elected to his office seven times by Lincoln county voters, is working from home.

Speaking from his home, Hamilton disputed the County’s version of events, saying the move was not prompted by reports of “inappropriate behavior.”

“I don’t see it like that,” he said, adding: “I’ve been working on an exit strategy for some time.”

Hamilton, 65, said the decision to work from home was the result of an “understanding” between him and the County, saying commissioners do not have the power to bar him from his office.

“I’m an elected official the same as they are,” he said. “The commissioners can’t issue me directives.”

But Hall said commissioners did exactly that, working through County Counsel Wayne Belmont.

Hall said Belmont told commissioners in July that he and County Personnel Director Sheahan Griffitts were investigating complaints against Hamilton, who had been told not to come into the office while the investigation was ongoing.

When the investigation was complete, Hall said, Belmont told Hamilton not to return to his office for the remainder of his term.

a float fairy for five or six years, having been persuaded to volunteer by a friend after years of searching unsuccessfully for a float since the Finders Keepers program began in 2000.

“She said ‘maybe it’s not your knack, did you ever think about being a volunteer,’” Merriweather said.

“It’s the most rewarding volunteer work I’ve ever done in my life.”

“It’s just so fun putting these out and knowing the joy it brings to people,” Ralphie said. “They really are like a rare treasure on the Oregon Coast.”

Merriweather said she and Ralphie walk on different beaches throughout town at different times, working as a team to place the treasures without being detected.

“Sometimes we are close by and actually get to see people retrieving what we leave behind,” she said. “We see people jumping up and down and shouting: ‘I’ve found one!’”

Merriweather said she is inspired at the joy that finding beach glass can bring to visitors from all over the world, who will then take their treasure – and their story — back home.

Taking on a hell of a run Coastal runners tackle harsh Eastern Oregon course

GAIL KIMBERLING For The News Guard

The Siletz Runners was one of 33 teams that took part in the event, sponsored

by Smith Rock Race Group LLC. “Awesome and awesome,” Lincoln City runner Jason Zacher said.

Zacher said there were some first-year glitches but they “were minor considering the grand scale and distance of the event.”

One of those glitches

A group of local runners got a taste of the Wild West during the Inaugural Hells Canyon Relay, Sept. 21-22 in Northeast Oregon.

The 210-mile relay course traversed the Hells Canyon Scenic Byway from Baker City to La Grande and featured everything from heat, hills and wildfire haze to cattle drives and cow pie L20562 Power Ford 6x2 100312:Layout 1 10/1/12 6:05 PM bingo.

involved projected finish times. With a course that topped out at nearly 6,500 feet, daytime temperatures in the upper 80s, and air thick with smoke particles, the majority of teams finished well past their expected times. Some teams were even forced to double-up on their final legs in order to make the finish line by the cut-off time.

The fastest finish was by a team called the Black Rhinos, which completed the course, and took first in the mixed team (over 40) division, in 28 hours, 51 minutes. One team completed the optional La Grande-toLa Grande elite course in 35.25.

Siletz Runners finished in 31.45 minutes, eighth among the 18 teams in the mixed division. In addition to Zacher, the team was comprised of captain Brady Smith; Lincoln City residents Feather Hryczyk, Stephanie Slebioda, Laura Kenney and Dave and Gail Kimberling; Newport residents Ed Cortes, KD Solomon and Rebecca Chuck; Megan (Kimberling) Morehead of Elgin and Phil Williams of Eugene.

The team was funded by a grant from the Siletz Tribal Charitable Contribution Fund.

about relay events is getting to meet new people,” Smith said. “Most people think I am crazy when I tell them I am going to take a long fourday road trip with a bunch of strangers. Four new faces ran with me in vehicle 2. I was blessed to be joined by a group of very capable and strong runners who took on every challenge that the Hells Canyon Relay could provide.

“The things I will not forget are Rebecca’s endless smile while she runs, KD’s ability to sleep anytime and her young strong legs running some of the hardest segments of the race, Phil’s intensity and free legal advice, Laura’s humbleness, and Jason’s endless motor.

Boy can that guy fly.”

Runners were promised spectacular scenery – and it

was plentiful, although the most stunning parts of the course were run in the middle of the night. Participants were also warned about possible wildlife encounters, but fortunately wolves and Big Foot kept their distance.

Critter sightings by the Siletz Runners were limited to squirrels, a stray deer or two, and a distant bear – as well as an unexpected encounter with a real cattle drive that featured wandering bovines, beer drinking cowboys and yapping cow dogs.

Small towns along the relay route went all out to accommodate teams, offering meals, showers, sleeping arrangements and entertainment, including “cow pie bingo.” These communities also provided invaluable volunteers and course support, day and night.

Due to the low number of team entries this first year, fellow runners were often few and far between along the long, rural route.

“I prefer the company of people around,” Hryczyk said. “Hopefully there will be more teams next year so I won’t feel like cougar bait running at night!”

“It seems that it takes a few years to work out all the logistics in these large events but I was impressed by how smooth everything went with the race,”Smith said. “I don’t think it will ever get to be as popular as some of the other relays around. I like the … more personal experience from smaller events. Several times during the event we had the opportunity to talk to the race organizers and to give them our feedback.

“The small towns that

can’t wait for next year.”

“I would definitely do this race again,” Hryczyk said. “Great volunteers, beautiful scenery and wonderful teammates!”

“I am thankful that the Siletz Charitable Contribution Fund helped fund the experience and to support rural communities and nonprofit groups involved in the event,” Smith said.

we ran through may have never seen so many different people swarm through ... I saw a group of girls and guys (runners) eating breakfast in pink tutus and angel wings right next to a table of local folks. I can only imagine what was going through the local people’s heads!”

Hall said commissioners never discussed the action in either open or closed session.

“Wayne Belmont reported to us individually on the course of action he had taken on our behalf,” he said, adding that Hamilton is entitled to a hearing on the allegations but has not requested one.

Hall said the complaints do not involve any criminal allegations and relate solely to alleged violations of County personnel rules.

“This involved actions by Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Hamilton only,” Hall said, “and did not directly involve any of the other employees.”

Hall said that while Oregon law effectively makes each of the county’s six directly elected department heads “his or her own boss,” he believes it is within commissioners’ authority to limit access to the courthouse.

Hamilton, who was first elected as surveyor in 1984, said he has so far been able to perform all his duties from his home in Siletz.

The 65-year-old said he plans to retire after his term expires but to keep his surveyor license and do small surveying jobs in Lincoln County.

“It’s hard for me,” he said.

“I’ve been working as a surveyor since 1965. It’s hard for me just to walk away.”

Thanks to a recent change in state law, the job of filling Hamilton’s shoes will fall to commissioners rather than to Lincoln County voters. The change, approved by the Legislature in 2011, converts surveyor positions from directly elected posts to appointed positions.

Hamilton said he disagrees with the change, which would see his office become part of the public works department.

“Personally, I think people should have the right to choose their government,” he said. “But, you know — who knows?”

pact places so far away,” Ralphie said, “because Lincoln City does draw people from around the world.”

As if on cue, during the photo shoot for this article, a German couple approached Merriweather and Ralphie, asking where they had found so many glass charms. The fairies maintained their cover — pretending to be a pair of beachcombers who got lucky and offering to share their finds with the visitors.

Merriweather said the female of the couple burst into tears, telling the fairies she had been searching without success for beach glass since arriving in Lincoln City and had begun to give up hope.

With that, Merriweather and Ralphie went on their way, secure in the knowledge that their daily walk on the beach had, once again, provided someone with a memory that will last a lifetime.

Calendar turns to Artober

JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

So much fun was had by all at last year’s inaugural Artober Brewfest that the Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce has welcomed area artists, musicians and culinary craftsmen to do it all again Saturday, Oct. 6, at the Lincoln City Cultural Center.

“It’s an event to highlight the artists, musicians and breweries in our area, and to bring people to Lincoln City in October,” Chamber of Commerce Board member Susan Wahlke said. “We had a high percentage of attendees from out of the area last year, lots of positive comments, and people expressed the wish that we would make it an annual event,” The second Artober Brewfest will celebrate Lincoln City’s local artisans while serving the community and its visitors with a summertime farewell

gathering that features food, drink, live music and an opportunity to buy local art. Kids are also welcome.

“We are providing activities for children because we want it to be a family friendly event,” Wahlke said. “The Artober Brewfest name is meant to incorporate the artists and breweries that are a part of the event, in addition to food vendors and music.”

Proceeds from the event will support year-round programs sponsored by the chamber, which in turn supports local businesses and provides residents with community-oriented activities.

The event, scheduled from 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the cultural center, 540 N.E. Highway 101, is made possible by a grant from the City of Lincoln City through the Visitors and Convention Bureau.

“The event is designed to promote Lincoln City in the offseason, showcas-

Safe canning for tuna and salmon With salmon and tuna season upon us, the thoughts of many coastal residents turn to canning their catches for enjoyment throughout the year.

But Sam Angima of the OSU Extension office said canners need to make sure they test their equipment and cook for long enough to make sure the fish remains safe to eat.

“It has been brought to our

attention here at the Extension office that not all people are aware of how important it is to test their

canning pressure gauges before canning tuna or any other sea food,” he said, “and also

on the time needed when canning to ensure proper and safe cooking and storage.”

Angima asked OSU Extension nutrition educator Janice Gregg to write a guide to help people make sure their canning is safe. To read the guide, go to the online version of this article at www.the newsguard. com.

to lure visitors to town who help support the local economy.

“Last year, our inaugural year, we had attendees from as far away as Ohio coming specifically for our Brewfest,” Augustine said.

A chamber survey revealed that 33 percent of those traveling in from more than 100 miles away came specifically for the Brewfest, she said.

“We hope to improve on those numbers this year,” she said.

A pair of rescuers launched their own ski to

reach the Oregon City man but were knocked into the water when they reached him, with the three men ending up standing on a sandbar.

Capt. Jim Kusz said a second crew went out and was able to retrieve the victim and take him

back to shore. Kusz said rescuers were then able to retrieve the NLFR ski but were forced to abandon the victim’s ski due to ocean conditions.

He said a search the following day yielded no sign of the vehicle.

Deputies from Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office who arrived on scene at 5:07 p.m. say Cassady Suzanne Daugherty, 24, was able to get out of the Ford Taurus

before it caught fire.

According to a Sheriff’s Office press release, witnesses report the car was traveling eastbound at about 80 miles per hour immediately prior to the crash.

Firefighters from North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1 extinguished the blaze and Daugherty was transported to Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital prior to deputies’ arrival.

Deputies say they contacted Daugherty at SNLH and observed signs of impairment, adding that she consented to and failed a field sobriety test.

According to the Sheriff’s office press release, she admitted she had been consuming alcohol and driving at excessive speeds at the time of the crash.

Daugherty was cited and released at the hospital.

A Moment in History In the spring of 1932 the Nelsons moved their Land development business to a new building south of the store and the “Nelscott Strip” was born. Charles’s son Earl opened the Lincoln Book Shop and Lending Library, seen in this photograph, on the “strip” in 1937.

Guest Commentary

VRD complainers got their facts wrong Dear Mr. & Mrs. Piper, Since you personally did not witness any of the allegations presented in your Guest Commentary in The News Guard, we were sad to see your attempt to publicly impugn two homeowners in your vacation rental’s neighborhood without researching the facts. Here are the facts: We believe your first set of clients left on or before Sunday, July 29th since there were no signs of visitors on Monday, July 30th. They left behind an overfilled garbage can plus two plastic sacks of garbage.

Why is that such a concern? Two reasons: One is because it pretty much shows thieves the house is a vacation rental and is most likely empty when there are no cars in the driveway.

Two is because overflowing garbage cans and easy-topuncture plastic garbage bags attract raccoons, crows and rats who in turn spread the trash throughout the neighborhood. In our neighborhood alone, there have

been three dogs as well as their owners, injured by raccoons. One dog died leaving his newly widowed owner devastated. The residents know not to overcrowd a garbage can for these reasons alone.

On Tuesday, July 31, housekeepers prepared your house for your next client.

They did nothing about the garbage. Proper protocol was followed and a picture, taken with a telephoto lens from the street, was sent to the code enforcement officer who in turn informed you and your property manager of the problem and the timing issues.

On Wednesday, your next set of clients, a family with small children, arrived. They were just finishing unpacking their car when my husband walked by to see if the garbage problem had been resolved. Your client was upset to be greeted by a full garbage can and that the bed guards were broken and/or missing on the bunk beds making it unsafe for his children to use. There was absolutely no reason for

my husband to scream, yell, confront or viciously attack your client. Your own client will confirm your inappropriate accusations did not happen.

Your client asked my husband for advice regarding the garbage after Gordon informed him he had already turned in the problem. He even apologized to your client regarding the garbage situation offering to help him with it when your client disgustedly remarked he would drag the garbage out to the street himself. Gordon also offered to call your property manager on his behalf, which he declined stating he had additional “issues” to discuss with them.

For your information, the North Lincoln Sanitary Service does daily pick up services if needed. Reputable property managers, such as Beach Front Rentals and A-1 Rentals always drive by after a client leaves to check for damage and to pick up excess garbage. To have garbage outside the cans for 5 days, especially

in the summer, is not fair to your incoming clients and it is not fair to the neighborhood. It also leaves a negative impression for the City’s VRD industry.

The second part of your complaint stated that this same gentleman’s wife had a “confrontation” with your brother-in-law who was on the deck listening to his radio. Just for the record, I don’t walk north as far as your house because I don’t enjoy the traffic and the off-leash dogs that frequent vacation rentals. Your intentionally humiliating public post regarding us was wrong on all counts.

We personally have recommended people stay at your vacation rental on numerous occasions and we have never complained about your vacation rental before this episode. Those of us who care about the security and peacefulness in our surrounding neighborhood have enough sense not to confront strangers.

We don’t trespass on other’s property; we can’t say the same holds true for the VRD

clients and one owner who have trespassed on ours. If a group is keeping us awake past 10:30 p.m., we call the property manager first, then file a complaint with the City who keeps excellent records on which property managers are doing their job. I would highly suggest you request to view that list; you might be surprised at the elevated number of complaints lodged against your property manager.

We do thank you for referring to your tenants as “clients”. It shows you are aware you are running a commercial business in our neighborhood. Statistics show visitors at VRDs are not actually the “lifeblood” of Lincoln City, but they are humans and we believe they should be treated as such. The transfer payments and full time residences are what keep the city alive year round. Their need for secure neighborhoods should be equally recognized.

Sincerely, Your beach neighbors, Susan and Gordon Walker

ciation (MDA) campaign! It has been a few weeks since you saw North Lincoln Fire & Rescue firefighters on the streets in Lincoln City, but we are glad to report that we raised $20,000.00 for MDA! This money, of course, goes to a great cause, helping in the fight against Muscular Dystrophy but it is also funds the kids’ camps so that children with MD can escape for a short time and play with other kids who have this life altering disease in common. Your firefighters annually go to the summer camp for a day and help bring smiles to these young people’s faces and make memories that can be shared for a lifetime.

We’d also like to thank Walgreens, Safeway, U.S. Bank, Oil Can Henry’s, Mulligan’s, The 60’s Café, T&L Sanitation, KBCH and The News Guard for their continued support over the years.

It is an exciting time for North Lincoln Fire & Rescue volunteers every year to take to the streets for MDA but it wouldn’t be as special and as great of a contribution without you.

Thanks again to you, the community; it is our pleasure to serve you.

MDA Chairman Mike Skiles and Captain Jim Kusz North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1

grams give people dignity, build healthy communities. Those who’d take them away should themselves be replaced.

Unpaid wars, tax cuts for the rich cause our recessions and deficits. Corporations must pay their fair share to sustain our communities, not get fossil fuel subsidies and welfare. They must serve the public good, not private greed, or be dissolved.

The people, not corporations must control America.

Don’t buy their lies, or unneeded products, and they’ll have to change. Buy local, build solid communities that respect human and nature’s rights, and stop putting profits over people.

There is a better way!

and Newport.

Unfortunately, there are many people in our communities who need the “gift of warmth” and you can help.

Items will be collected during the months of October and November at the following locations: Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce, Lincoln City Community Center and BOSS Radio in Newport We are grateful for the willingness of these organizations to provide collection sites.

During the last two years, we have collected more than 1,500 new items that were distributed in both Lincoln City and Newport to those in need.

This year, there is a particular need for warm socks and gloves for all ages and sizes from infants to adults.

Please take the time to think about what it feels like to be cold and you will understand the difference these warm items can make in someone’s life.

This is the most generous community, I have ever lived in and I know you will help me to make this the best year the Warm Fuzzies Project has ever had.

Thanks in advance for your donations.

They are appreciated!

Voices of Lincoln County Elect Tom Runions

Tom will help restore Senior Outreach and Teen Court, two very essential programs to Lincoln County’s youth and the elderly. These were cut by Bill Hall and the other members of the Board of Commissioners in exchange for big pay increases during one of the worst recessions in our country’s history.

I see lots of claims from Bill Hall about this board or that committee that he is on, but no action. We have lost many good programs and services (over 80 employees) due to his poor management.

Join me and vote for Tom Runions for our next County Commissioner.

The Bike Plan?

In reading your plan, I am really puzzled. You want more bike paths and narrower streets? As I drive the streets in Lincoln City most every day, I don’t see a lot of bikes or pedestrians.

What I do see are thousands of cars trying to get through the various choke points in the city. The areas such as SE 23rd South through Nelscott, Hwy 101 from Hwy 18 to the area of Logan Road.

So rather than spend limited funds sliming down Hwy. 101, which If I read that correctly means changing four lanes down to three, makes little or no sense whatsoever.

Can you imagine the irritation tourists would feel as they drive down traffic choked roads in Lincoln City, just trying to get to their destination? Then compound that irritation for the residents and other people who live in the area.

If you haven’t noticed that the economy isn’t the best - businesses are struggling as are a lot of people now days. Why not concentrate on feasible plans, instead of feel good “oh look at our bike paths” plans that wouldn’t help keep traffic moving- but wow would sure look good. Three lane roadways and wide side-

walks may look great on paper, but they only turn roadways into parking lots probably not something that Lincoln City needs.

The Lincoln Beach exaggerator

Mr. Baker has problems when it come to getting his “facts” straight and quoting his source as required by the News Guard. He also exaggerates his information.

First of all, his issue regarding food stamps and Medicaid is an exaggeration. President Obama did not become president until 2008. Therefore, blaming Mr. Obama for the jump in recipients from 17 million to 45 million from 2000-2011 is not accurate. Mr Baker needs to get the figures from January 2000 to October 2011 and needs to quote his source. He also needs to remember that the economy “tanked” long before Mr. Obama became president.

Does Mr. Baker have “insider” information on the 4,000 new regulations that Mr. Obama plans should he be re-elected? I think not!

What is his source?

The Stimulus was needed. Imagine how many more jobs would have been lost; how many more housing foreclosures there would have been; how many more food stamp and Medicaid recipients would there be!

Mr. Baker should make a number of trips to Third World Countries, staying for weeks or even months so he can see what it is really like. He would soon realize that our country is highly unlikely to be a Third World country and would hopefully be thankful he lives in the USA! Julie Heston lincoln city

There is a better way

Politicians and the media distract us with bogus issues, while we are being fleeced, our communities ravaged. This is not about parties; it’s about lies and vulture capitalism stealing our wealth and our rights.

Corporate control of our society is unprecedented!

They fund politicians, entertain them; write laws for them, in secret. Steal our jobs, savings, suppress our votes. It’s un-democratic & un-american.

Don’t like taxes? Then you’ll love price gouging!

Happy to hear about Dr. Bob

I was so greatful to see in the News Guard that Dr. Bob Oksenholt is opening possibly two, yes, TWO (they report) clinics here in town.

But for heaven sake don’t say his name to some of the people who work for Samaritan here in town. I was told today that Dr. Bob was moving to New York for the next six months. Will some of these hospital personnel just get over it? Yes, Dr. Bob and his clinic will have instant patients (like me), and with almost 900 past patients I’m sure they will all switch back to their caring, knowledgeable, friend - Dr. Bob as we call him, with affection.

Thank you News Guard for keeping Dr Bob’s patients up to snuff on this.

Your commitment for the healthcare of all the people of this area is commendable.

Thank you again.

Former Bi-Mart still empty

I am a frequent customer of the Lighthouse Square shopping center in north Lincoln City. The former BiMart location is still empty, and is not being maintained.

I suggest that the mall owner show some pride in his property and some respect for the current merchants there, and maintain the store as he would expect a tenant to. A “For Lease” sign in the window would also make it look less like an abandoned store.

Telephonic harassment

It is a crime in Oregon to intentionally harass or annoy another person on the telephone. The penalties can be severe. Repeated obscene and abusive phone calls can bring panic to a household, but you can fight back.

Always set your own rules for using your phone.

Talk on your terms, not the caller’s. Don’t talk to anyone unless you want to.

Hang up.

Ask all callers to identify themselves. If someone calls you and asks “who is this?”-- don’t answer. Ask “what number were you calling? “or “who do you want?”

Never answer personal questions about anything in your life unless you know exactly whom you are speaking with and why.

If you get a call from a “breather”, one who calls repeatedly and says nothing, or someone who makes obscene or threatening comments, say nothing and hang up.

Don’t worry about offending salespeople on the phone. Do not give any information; just hang up.

Report threatening or abusive phone calls to the telephone company and the police immediately.

For obscene and abusive calls, dial the business office of the phone company.

They have representatives who are trained to help.

Explain these tips to your children and then ask them at a later time what they should do when they answer the phone under these circumstances. This

OCVA has hired Marcus Hinz of Kayak Tillamook and COCA has hired Gale Hart of Lincoln City.

Additionally, the staff will be let go, leaving Hinz and Hart to run the nonprofits. “It’s sad, with the split, we didn’t have the funds to keep all the staff,” Meyers said.

OCVA will not serve as the coast’s regional destination marketing organization for state’s Regional Cooperative Marketing Program (RCMP) over the next year, Meyers said.

“We want our director to focus on membership,” Meyers said. She said his primary job this first year is to go up and down the coast, talking to existing members and building new membership. “We’re really excited about it.”

She said the OCVA board has been engaged in longterm strategic planning and is considering changing its focus to market the coast to in-state tourists. RCMP dollars are slated for out of state and international marketing.

Bobby Jack Fowler and what they know about him and their time with him in Lincoln County. It can place him in certain locations at certain times. That’s really critical. It may not mean anything to you, but it could be vitally important to us.”

Lincoln County District Attorney’s Office Investigator Ron Benson indicated this week that Fowler is considered a person of interest in at least three more cold cases in Oregon, which he did not name.

Considering the timeline of Fowler’s known crimes, from the murder of Colleen MacMillan in Canada in 1974, to attempted rape, kidnapping and sexual assault in Newport in 1995, the possibilities for the twenty-one year gap are chilling. Investigators all over the U.S. and Canada are working to connect Fowler to unsolved murders during those years.

The unsolved Tillamook County case that falls within that timeline is the murder of Tammy Albertson, 16, last seen alive at a phone booth at the Mohler grocery store on Highway 53 on March 22, 1992.

Ron Benson is putting together a timeline of Fowler’s know whereabouts, which enables investigators

to narrow the field of possible victims. For instance, there were periods when Fowler was incarcerated, and couldn’t have committed certain crimes. But regarding Tammy Albertson, Benson said, “We don’t know where he was in March of 1992, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t here. It’s a possibility.” Benson is looking at Fowler for the May 1992 abductions of Swanson and Sanders, just two months after Tammy Albertson disappeared.

“We can’t exclude him without more information,” said Benson, referring to forensic information, such as the condition in which Tammy Albertson’s body was found. Criminals will often repeat whatever patterns of behavior have worked for them in the past, and those repeated behaviors will show up as clues in crime scenes.

“How she was found, if it fits,” said Benson, “that’s where it all comes together.”

Oregon State Police (OSP) Detective Michelle Brewer works on cold cases in Tillamook County, and Tammy Albertson’s file is on her desk. She and Sheriff Andy Long discussed it

recently, and talked about asking retired Sheriff’s Office investigators who worked on the case when it happened 20 years ago to come in and discuss it with them.

Tammy Albertson’s remains were found in God’s Valley, in a logged area, a year after her disappearance. Brewer said, “Because it was a year out, there was no evidence from the scene, no DNA. Her bones were scattered, it was a partial skeleton, there was just enough to tell us that it was her.”

Brewer said “We can’t include or exclude Bobby Jack Fowler at this time. We don’t have anything that connects him, and we don’t have any DNA. But anything is possible.”

Brewer concluded, “Somebody coming forward would be our best new evidence.”

The Lincoln County tip line for information about Bobby Jack Fowler: 541265-0271.

OSP Detective Michelle Brewer for information about Tammy Albertson: 503-815-3320 or michelle. brewer@state.or.us.

Naked and bleeding, with a rope tied to her leg, the victim jumped from a second story window and escaped.

The police arrested Fowler shortly thereafter. He was convicted of kidnapping, attempted rape and sexual abuse, and sentenced to serve a 16year sentence in the Snake River Correctional Institute, where he died.

The Lincoln County announcement follows a discovery by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police that Bobby Jack Fowler killed 16 year-old Colleen MacMillan in 1974. MacMillan was last seen on B.C. Highway 97, where she was hitchhiking to visit a friend. Her body was found on a logging road 29 miles away. DNA linked Fowler to MacMillan’s death. Canadian police called it the oldest DNA match in Interpol’s history.

Fowler is a strong suspect in two other Canadian cases and a person of interest in seven more, dating as far back as 1969.

The DNA in the Canadian murder case is damning; the evidence in the Lincoln County cases is circumstantial at this point, but investigators recently submitted DNA evidence for testing; they are reanalyzing cold cases with new investigative tools.

The Oregon Coast Visitors Association and the Central Oregon Coast Association are parting ways.

For the past 12 years, Rebecah Lutz had served as the executive director of OCVA and the president and CEO of COCA. Earlier this year she approached the boards of the two nonprofits with the suggestion that they be run independently.

“When I started 12 years

ago, they were very small organizations and it was very easy to run them as companion organizations with the same staff,” Lutz said. “I thought it was time that the organizations operate on their own.”

OCVA board chairwoman Sue Meyers, of Lands End Motel in Cannon Beach, said, “She came to the board and was feeling overwhelmed because OCVA has grown so much.”

Lutz also stepped down as the head of both nonprofits. To take Lutz’s place,

10. That’s why he is walking our neighborhoods to learn more about our current concerns. He has talked extensively with me to learn the background that has influenced recent legislative issues and he will remain open to gaining the critical insights that he will need to take with him to Salem, in order to speak out effectively on our behalf.

Finally, I encourage support of Arnie Roblan in his bid to succeed retiring State Senator Joanne Verger to represent us in Senate District 5. I have worked closely with Arnie, who has served as the State Representative for House District 9 (just south of us) for eight years and is currently Co-Speaker of the Oregon House. He has consistently supported the issues that matter to folks in our district such as growing the marine research industry, protection of our environment while maintaining our sustainable fisheries, the bid to bring NOAA to Newport, and a tireless commitment to quality public education.

Arnie is my confidant, my partner in matters of importance to local residents, and my friend. He is an empathetic individual who thoroughly understands coastal issues. And he has the unique skills necessary to keep our legislative chamber functioning as smoothly as possible during the co-governance experiment generated by an unprecedented 30-30 (Democrats and Republicans) tie in the Oregon House this biennium.

If you have not yet met any of these outstanding individuals, I urge you to do so between now when you mail in your ballot. There will be many opportunities at the candidate “meet and greets,” forums and town halls scheduled throughout October.

We are living in challenging economic times. Bill Hall, David Gomberg, and Arnie Roblan will serve you well in their respective roles as we move forward. I urge you to support all three.

Guest Commentary

As the November elections near and my time in elected office draws to a close, I am frequently asked about future representation for House District 10.

Because this question means so much to me, I have decided to share my thoughts about three critical races.

Rep. Jean I fully Cowan support the re-election of Bill Hall to the County Commission. After serving for 12 years as a Lincoln County Commissioner and deciding to move into state government, I gave very serious consideration to the question of who might succeed me. My choice was Bill Hall because I appreciated Bill’s intellect, compassion and demonstrated understanding of the complexities of any public policy decision.

My faith in Bill’s ability and character continues, undiminished. He has proven himself to be a leader in finding ways to combat the challenges faced by the homeless individuals in our communities, championing specialized drug courts and mental health courts, and always seeking innovative approaches to providing the best possible county services within the constraints of shrinking revenues. None of this is easy; I know that fact well. But Bill’s commitment to doing all that he can never wavers.

Now, to address replacing me as your state representative: I have given my backing and assistance to David Gomberg. Because small business is the backbone of this district’s economy, the fact that David and his wife, Susan, are small business owners themselves, will allow him to take that valuable expertise to Salem on our behalf. Additionally, he shares my commitment to seniors’ support and public education.

David is not a newcomer to the state political structure and he is well-positioned to quickly become an effective voice in that arena. But he also recognizes that he must inform himself about the key issues of importance to the citizens of House District

Lincoln City raises roof on façade loans PATRICK ALEXANDER The News Guard

Commercial property owners in Lincoln City’s main business districts will have access to larger interest-free loans to remodel their buildings and will be able to use the money to tackle a wider range of jobs after a decision by Urban Renewal chiefs.

At their Sept. 24 meeting, directors of the Lincoln City Urban Renewal Agency agreed with a staff recommendation to increase the cap on the agency’s property rehabilitation loans from $50,000 to $75,000.

Kurt Olsen, the agency’s executive director, told board members the loan program is geared toward façade improvements for buildings within the urban renewal district but has also allowed property owners to tackle rot, structural issues and roofing if such work is needed to protect the new façade.

In addition to raising the loan cap, Olsen asked the board to allow the funds to be used for a wider range of work, including building expansion; sidewalks, walkways and plazas; paving parking lots, interior renovation, ADA accessibility and lighting.

Olsen said applicants would still have to include a façade improvement in order to qualify for the loan.

“You can’t do all these other things without improving the façade,” he said.

“Because the intent is to have a better appearance.”

The only area in which Olsen recommended allowing loans without a façade improvement is to help pay for signage for buildings in historic business districts with specific sign guidelines — such as Oceanlake, Taft and Nelscott.

Olsen said raising the loan threshold might attract new applicants. He reminded board members that people can apply for the full loan amount two years in a row, borrowing up to $150,000 to pay for a larger project.

The agency has been offering rehabilitation loans since 1999 and has issued 41 loans totaling $1.6 million so far.

Councilor Roger Sprague expressed concern that the program might put the City in competition with local banks.

“I just don’t want us to be in competition with other financial institutions,” he said, “if people are using our program with zero interest rather than getting

a loan somewhere else.”

Sprague said he always viewed the rehabilitation loan program as a “last resort” for people who could not get a traditional loan.

Mayor Dick Anderson disagreed.

“I don’t see it as a last resort,” he said. “This is an incentive program to improve the look of your

building.”

Anderson said the agency’s loan program gives property owners the ability to combine their zero-interest money with a loan from a commercial lender to get an attractive blended rate.

Olsen also reminded the board that the agency makes its loans through the Bank of the West which

does receive income in the form of the points charged on the loan, even if it does not receive interest on the Agency’s money.

The loans are repayable over a 10-year-period and include up to 20 hours’ free design consultation.

A partner program offers zero-interest loans of up to $5,000 over five years for

Lincoln City decides against restarting business incubator Space will be offered to government and nonprofit groups PATRICK ALEXANDER The News Guard

Lincoln City leaders have opted against reestablishing a business incubator on the first floor of the Lincoln Square Civic Complex, choosing instead to hold the space open for governmental or nonprofit use while keeping an eye out for other opportunities.

The City established the incubator in 2008 to make use of a suite of six offices with a shared conference room previously occupied by the Visitor & Convention Bureau.

The aim was to provide startup businesses with low-rent space for a few years to give them

the opportunity to grow and move on to find larger premises on the commercial market.

But the opening coincided with the economic crash and it was not until November 2009 that the City found a tenant, Siletz Technologies Inc., which rented the entire suite.

A little more than a year later, in May 2011, Siletz Technologies folded, leaving the offices vacant.

At the Sept. 24 meeting of Lincoln City Council, City Manager David Hawker said the time had come for a decision.

“I’m kind of in Nevernever Land,” he said. “I need to know what we are going to do with the space.”

Hawker said the City received 11 applications for incubator spaces when it advertised the facility in 2011.

While restarting the incubator would likely produce some jobs over time, he said, the main drawback is the amount of staff time the facility would take to administer.

Hawker said that in order to review the applications, Council would need to reappoint members to the business incubator committee, which has lain dormant since Siletz Technologies moved in.

Other options, Hawker said, include renting the space on the commercial market, holding it for gov-

ernmental or nonprofit use or waiting for another opportunity to present itself.

He told councilors any retail use is out of the question because of the potential impact on parking for Price ‘N Pride and the library.

Mayor Dick Anderson said that, with several other organizations already performing economic development work in the county, he favors offering the space to governments and nonprofits while waiting for opportunities.

“That’s kind of what we have been doing,” he

said. “It keeps the space available for if the big one comes along.”

Hawker warned councilors they should not expect to fill the space with government offices, even if they offer space for free as the City does with the state’s employment office.

“Both the state and the County have made it clear that they want to centralize and suck the revenue from Lincoln City elsewhere,” he said, adding: “We might get a satellite office from another government but the last success we had, we had to give the space away.”

Tips for healthy living from Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital

Stay healthy and active in the rainy season.

A bounty of fresh, healthy food is available in the fall: colorful squashes and greens, gorgeous apples and pears, Oregon hazelnuts and fall salmon. It’s easy to eat well at this time of year.

Don’t stop exercising: join an indoor sports league, get a treadmill, pick up a variety of exercise videos from the library. It doesn’t rain all the time, so get outdoors and take a walk on the beach. Maybe you’ll find a glass float.

The rainy season is also flu season.

Ask your primary care doctor about flu shots.

Driver cited in motor home crash Planners balk at double sidewalk idea The driver of a motor home was cited by Oregon State Police Wednesday afternoon following an investigation into a noninjury crash in which police say the man pulled in front of a loaded log truck causing it to crash off Highway 229 about three miles south of Highway 101 junction.

Police say the crash happened at 12:37 p.m., when a 2009 Kenworth truck pulling a loaded log trailer driven by Jerry D. Kowitz, 55, from Waldport, was northbound on Highway 229 near milepost 3 when a motor home pulling a boat trailer turned from the Chinook Bend RV Resort in the truck’s path. Police say Kowitz steered to the right to avoid the motor home and crashed off the north

side of the highway.

Kowitz was not injured.

The motor home’s driver, Robert Beyeler, 80, from Yuma, Arizona, was cited by

OSP on suspicion of failing to yield right of way. Both drivers were using safety restraints.

A proposal to deal with a dip in the road by constructing a new, higher sidewalk adjacent to an existing one has led Lincoln City councilors to express concern about creating a public nuisance and wasting taxpayer money.

The proposal is part of the Oregon Department of Transportation’s plan to reconfigure the intersection between Highway 101 and S.W. 32nd street at the south end of the Nelscott Strip.

The project, slated to begin construction in spring 2014, involves raising the grade of S.W. 32nd Street to make room for a larger culvert to allow Baldy Creek to flow underneath the roadway.

At the Sept. 24 meeting of the Lincoln City Urban Renewal Agency, Executive Director Kurt Olsen told board members that raising the roadway is simple enough but raising the level of the sidewalk caused problems for ODOT officials.

Olsen said simply elevating the existing sidewalk, which runs along the side of the Nelscott Mercantile Building would have required modifications to the 1927 building’s concrete footings.

“In the infinite wisdom of ODOT and their people that do these sorts of things, the building qualifies for historic significance or preservation or something,” he said, “so we can’t make those modifications to the building to allow that to happen without a big deal and probably delaying the process even beyond 2015.”

As a result, Olsen said, ODOT’s current proposal

PATRICK ALEXANDER/THE NEWS GUARD

The current proposal for raising the roadway at S.W. 32nd Street would involve installing an additional sidewalk roughly at the height of the Nelscott Mercantile Building’s siding in the area currently occupied by on-street parking. is to build a new sidewalk adjacent to the existing one, but elevated by about three feet.

“I fear we are leaving ourselves open here to ridicule regarding two sidewalks,” Councilor Chester Noreikis said, “and a waste of the taxpayers’ money.”

Board Chair Henry Quandt was concerned about the potential safety hazard caused by the threefoot drop.

“Are we going to have to put a fence around the one sidewalk so that that people don’t fall on to the other sidewalk?” he asked.

When Olsen told Quandt that the design does include a railing, the board erupted with laughter.

“You’ve got to be kidding me.” Quandt said. “There’s got to be something that can be done with this one.”

Olsen told the board that, once the ODOT project is completed, the City would be able to hire its own workers to modify the building footings and raise the original sidewalk to the same height as the new one — creating a double-width sidewalk 14 feet across.

“And we wouldn’t need a rail,” Noreikis said, before

correcting himself: “Well, we’d have to take the rail out — the rail that we’d put in.”

Meanwhile, Councilor Roger Sprague expressed concern that having a two sidewalks side by side — regardless of their heights — would eliminate muchneeded on-street parking.

City Manager David Hawker urged Olsen to double check the rules regarding alterations to historic buildings, saying ODOT’s conclusion “doesn’t feel right.”

ODOT spokesman Rick Little said elevating the existing sidewalk by three feet would put it at the level of the Mercantile Building’s siding, something he said would be considered “an adverse effect on a historic structure.”

Little stressed that the raised sidewalk idea is just one potential solution to the problem.

“We’re working to overcome the obstacle that the historic structure presents,” he said. ‘This is not an insurmountable problem and compared to other issues that we and the City have already resolved, this doesn’t rank among the biggest issues of the project.”

Foreclosure payments on the way Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum has announced that claim forms are going out to more than 23,000 Oregonians who may be eligible for payment under the national mortgage foreclosure settlement.

Qualifying Oregonians could get cash payments of $840 or more. To be eligible, borrowers must have lost their home to foreclosure between Jan. 1, 2008, and Dec. 31, 2011 and had their mortgages serviced by Ally/ GMAC, Bank of America, Citi, JPMorgan Chase or Wells Fargo.

The nation s five largest mortgage servicers agreed to the payments as part of a $25 billion settlement with the federal government and attorneys general for 49 states and the District of Columbia.

The Big Five servicers have already paid $29.3 million to the state as part of the settlement. They have also pledged $300 million worth of loan modifications and other assistance to current Oregon customers.

About $1.5 billion of the settlement is earmarked for 2 million borrowers nation-

wide. The exact payment will depend upon the total number of borrowers who decide to participate.

“This payment is intended as partial compensation for the mortgage servicers’ improper conduct,” Rosenblum said.

“By participating, borrowers do not give up any legal rights. They’re free to participate in this settlement and also pursue other legal remedies such as filing a lawsuit or participating in a class action, if they so choose.”

Borrowers should not

need to pay anyone to file their claim and Rosenblum has warned all homeowners to be aware of settlementrelated scams.

“Do not provide personal information or pay money to anyone who calls or emails you claiming that they are providing settlement-related assistance,” she said. “If you believe someone is conducting a settlement-related scam, contact the Oregon Department of Justice at 503-3786002.”

Borrowers must return their claim forms by Jan. 18

to be eligible for payment.

Last week, the national settlement administrator mailed notification postcards to the eligible borrowers nationwide. In Oregon, packets containing a letter from the Attorney General, claim form, instructions and answers to frequently asked questions are being mailed to eligible borrowers beginning today and continuing through Oct. 12.

Forms can be filed online at www.nationalmortgagesettlement.com.

The deadline for all claims is Jan. 18, 2013. Payment

checks are scheduled to be mailed in mid-2013.

Borrowers who need help filing their claim can contact the settlement administrator, toll-free, at 1-866-430-8358, or via email at administrator@nationalmortgagesettlement. com. The information line is staffed Monday through Friday from (7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Central).

More information about that program is available at www.independentforclosurereview.com.

I became a believer in Jesus Christ when I was just 17 years old during the Jesus movement of the 70’s. The moment I surrendered my life to Christ my adventure with God began!

For years I had struggled to believe that God actually loved me; but then I began to realize how much God really loves all of us when I look at the loving sacrifice of Christ. I began to realize that God not only wants to forgive us our all of our sins; He wants to give us the power to express His godly and loving nature by living an authentic Christian life in Him.

Pastor Phil

Some might ask, what is authentic Christianity? To which I would reply; are you willing to find out? We recently started a new church less than half a mile south of the Tanger Mall on Highway 101. We are beginning to grow into a family of believers who want to allow God’s Word to permeate every area of our lives. My wife and I count it a privilege to serve in this community. We were sent here by Lebanon Calvary Chapel to start a new work here in Lincoln City with the goal of reaching others with authenticity and the love of God. I hope you will join us at 1800 SE Hwy 101 on Sundays at 10:30 am and Thursdays at 7:00 pm in which we will study the Bible verse by verse, worship God and discover His awesome heart towards us.

Taft roundup

Taft puts together best volleyball showing Playing what coach Frank Napoleon called his team’s best league match of the season, Taft extended host Central to the brink in two of three games before falling 28-26, 25-14, 25-23 on Tuesday, Sept. 25.

“The team played well on defense picking up Central’s spikes,” Napoleon said.

Napoleon cited sophomore Katie McCardell, senior McKenna Sarvis and junior Taylor Adams in the Tigers’ closest match of the season.

McCardell led Taft with eight kills and six blocks, Wilkinson in assists with seven and Sarvis in digs with nine.

“McCardell did a great job on the net spiking and blocking,” he said. “Sarvis and Adams did an excellent job playing defense in the back row.”

Senior Alina Button was 14-for-14 and freshman Kelsey Wilkinson 13-for-13 with four aces to lead the Tigers in serving.

Sarvis and sophomore

Olivia Day had five and four blocks, respectively, and Adams eight digs.

A league match scheduled Thursday, Sept. 27, at Newport was rescheduled for Monday Oct. 1, and the Tigers hosted Cascade on Tuesday, Oct. 2 (past The News Guard’s print deadline).

Taft hosts Stayton at 6 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 4, plays at a tournament hosted by Junction City on Saturday, Oct. 6, and is at Philomath on Tuesday, Oct. 9.

Cross-country — Seven Taft runners, Taryn Brewer, Zach Colbert, Kendal Gile, Eva Barten, Sarahi Herver, Evan Stanfill and Grant Prins, posted personal-best times Saturday, Sept. 29, at the Woahink Lake CrossCountry Invitational in Florence.

“Considering sicknesses that many players were fighting this week, I was very proud of the individual times,” Taft coach Rebecca Dressler said. “Every meet, the team seems to be getting closer to their goals and showing faster times.”

Herbst wins first game as Taft football coach JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

For a coach who had just notched his first victory as Taft High football coach, Perry Herbst preferred to look ahead rather than back.

“It’s nice to get the first win. That seems to always be the toughest one,” said Herbst, whose Tigers opened Oregon West Conference play with a 14-6 comeback victory at Stayton on Friday, Sept. 27. “But I’m just glad we’re showing up and getting better. If you do that, the wins will come.”

Herbst’s first victory as head coach of the Class 4A Tigers following a stint as defensive coordinator at Class 6A Forest Grove, came on the strength of two second-quarter touchdowns by senior running back Tyler Lopez.

Lopez scored on a

7-yard run to tie the score 6-6 after the Eagles (1-3) took the lead on their first possession of the game, then on a 32-yard scoring pass from junior quarterback Seth Steere.

The running game was a major factor in improving Taft to 1-4 following four preseason losses to open the season, Herbst said.

“I thought our running backs ran real hard,” he said, mentioning Lopez, his twin brother, Skyler, fellow senior Brent Martin and junior Tyler Henson. “All four of them did a good job of finding holes and ran real hard.”

Defensively, Herbst cited the same players who have been keys to the team’s effort on the other side of the ball most of the season — seniors Chris Knudson, Trevor Knott and Seth Seidling and junior Killian Kuhn.

“Our defense played real well,” he said. “We had some real timely sacks coming off the edge when they were trying to come back.”

Herbst said he was particularly pleased with the leadership displayed

by Knott from his middle linebacker position.

“He did a good job controlling the defense and getting the kids where they need to be,” he said.

Taft next meets Philomath at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 5, in its homecoming game at Voris Field.

“If we keep improving, the wins will come,” Herbst said. “Right now, we’re nowhere near where we need to be or want to be, but we’re getting there. We just have to keep plugging away. If we keep improving, we’ll be OK. It’s the journey, not the destination, that I worry about.”

everyone.”

Senior Bobby Brandenburg was 69th among the boys in the 5,000-meter race in 19:28.60, while Soleil Zumhafe was 59th in the girls’ competition in 23:39.30.

Brandenburg and Zum-

hofe are 14th in the Oregon West Conference with season-best times of 18.37 and 22.58, respectively, in the Murv Fanning Invitational at Agate Beach on Sept. 8.

Soccer — The Taft High boys’ soccer team lost 9-0 at Stayton in the league opener

on Tuesday, Sept. 25, then 7-1 at home to Philomath on Thursday, Sept. 27.

Taft snapped a string of 11 straight goals by the opposition with a breakaway goal early against Philomath before the Warriors exploded for seven unanswered goals in the rout.

Details were not reported.

The Tigers were at Central on Tuesday, Oct. 2 (past The News Guard’s print deadline), and Newport on Thursday, Oct. 4, and will host Cascade at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 9.

Meanwhile, the Tigers’ girls’ team failed to fare much better in 3-1 and 12-0 defeats to Stayton at home and at Philomath on Tuesday, Sept. 25, and Thursday, Sept. 27, respectively.

Details were not reported.

The Taft girls played Central at home on Tuesday, Oct. 2 (past The News Guard’s print deadline), host Newport at 4 p.m. Thursday, Oct.4, and are at Cascade on Tuesday, Oct. 9.

A step ahead of the pack Joey Arce-Torres was taken aback the day he met local soccer coach Ray Santos when he approached him with some rather peculiar inquiries about his then-6year-old son. Gabe.

“He asked me about his sleeping patterns, how tall my family members were, if he took vitamins, if he enjoyed school,” Arce-Torres, a 17-year Lincoln City resident, remembers.

Interested in Gabe, then of kindergarten age, as much more than just another promising soccer player, Santos says something in the youngster immediately caught his eye.

“It was just the way he touched the ball, kicked the ball, the way he listened to the coaches,” Santos said of Gabe, now a 12-year-old seventh-grader at Taft High 7-12. “I could tell right away, you had a gem there.”

It doesn’t take Santos, his dad, Joey, manager of Imprints Print Shop in Lincoln City, or mother, Lori, an American Family Insurance

agent, to tell you the kind of kid Gabe is. Aunt Heather and Uncle Robert, Joey’s brother, could fill you in on the special dinner Gabe prepared for them a year ago.

“He wanted to do something special for them, so he said, ‘I’m going to make them an anniversary dinner,”’ Joey said. “He went on the Internet, he found a recipe, he went to the grocery store with my wife, he bought all the groceries, then he came home and he made and served the dinner. I mean, everybody knows him as a soccer player, but those are the things that are Gabe.

I’m really, really fortunate to have a kid that’s so easy going and such a sponge as far as wanting to absorb everything out there.”

Fish tacos with mango chutney don’t totally tell the story either. Gabe, who fancies science and math and likes his Oregon outdoors class in his transition from grade to middle school, commonly scores five goals in a game in the Lincoln City Youth Soccer League. and has tallied as many as seven.

He would rather share the

scoring load, however.

“The thing I like about Gabe is he’s pretty versatile,” Seth Lenaerts, coach of Gabe’s Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital-Emergency Room team, said. “He can play forward or center midfielder and be in more of a distributing position to get the other players involved, which makes the whole team better.”

Which is just fine with Gabe.

“I really like to see other people score,” the midfielder/striker said. “Especially people who haven’t played much because their eyes light up and they get all wide and they just look at you and you’re like, ‘good job.’ It’s a good feeling when you do that.”

Like Santos and Lenaerts, Joey, who has coached Gabe since he was 5 despite having no soccer playing experience, recognizes and has encouraged his son’s unselfishness.

“He wants the people around him to grow,” he said. “I tell him to keep them involved in the match, to continually talk to them, to

Gabe said he isn’t sure what it is about soccer that attracts him besides being naturally talented at the sport.

“It just kind of called me a little bit,” said Gabe, who also excels in baseball and basketball and is looking forward to being a sprinter in track. “When I started playing, I started seeing the kids that were in high school and said I want to be like them.”

Some might say he is better — already.

“Gabe just has really good soccer sense,” Lenaerts said.

“I mean, a lot of kids come to practice, but they don’t really understand the game.

I mean, most games [cocoach] Joe Primeau and I just look at each other and go, ‘Now, that’s good soccer.’ He’s on an upper tier. He takes the game to another level.”

Staying hands-on at home but off the practice field has been a new experience for Joey, who still attends all of his son’s workouts.

More than anything, it’s his footwork and desire that make Gabe a special player, his father said.

“One thing that puts Gabe ahead of everybody else is his speed,” he said.

“He’s able to stop and go very quickly and has great balance. But the thing, I think, that really separates him is his drive. He’s really, really competitive.”

Gabe agrees. In fact, it’s one factor that makes it easier to continue his soccer without his father as coach for the first time in his life.

“Me and my dad are really competitive, but we’ve learned to try to tone that down over the years because that’s gotten between our relationship and I really don’t want that to happen,” he said. “Me and my dad definitely work off each other.”

ilfred taught me to fish for a living. He had been arrested 1500 times and sentenced to Folsom Prison, but now he was reeling me in.

I was nearly dead—from alcohol abuse. Jobless, friendless, homeless, bankrupt, fresh out of the cuckoo’s nest, heading for suicide—but it seemed small potatoes next to Wilfred.

His arrests had been mostly for drunk and disorderly, but also because he hated injustice. He was the legal owner of northwestern California. True, the United States had bought the land from the Wintuns, but (darn!) forgot to pay for it. Wilfred’s father, who lived “the old way,” was the last full-blooded heir.

Since Wilfred owned the land, he naturally ignored the immigrant white man’s rules. When approached by a game warden for poaching, Wilfred ordered him off; “You’re trespassing on my property.” This led to a fight, arrest, lunging at a judge and being judged criminally insane.

Billy Frank Jr., a member of the Nisqually tribe north in Washington, had a similar attitude, but different outcome. Frank got arrested for poaching at age 13.

After 40 years of in and out of jail, his tribe won a lawsuit and regained fishing rights. Frank became a celebrated hero and advisor to the governor.

Wilfred and I weren’t heroes changing the world. We were just hoping to keep our heads above water. The waves kept rolling in, swishing us around, under bright clear skies — our lives on the line. The salmon dying off — not many left.

Still, one King could pay the rent. When we had no luck trolling, we’d bottom fish. We pulled in lingcod and red snapper as fast as we could bait. Got 10 cents a pound, enough to keep us afloat and sober.

At night I would lie in the back of my old GMC pickup and watch the sun sink over the Pacific.

Then, I would watch it rise and shine. I could feel it throbbing in the native rhododendrons and redwoods.

Wilfred taught me to listen for it in the rhythm of waves singing, “All we are saying, is give life a chance.” He gestured towards the clouds, the trees, the earth, the people — the powers beyond us.

I learned about the Great Silver Salmon God that dreams in the ocean deep.

Once a year he puts on salmon skin and comes to land. He offers himself up to save humans. If his gift is not honored, he doesn’t return. The Columbia River and its tributaries with over 100 dams now have a thousand miles of empty spawning space. Canneries that produced several pounds of fish a year for every person on earth have quietly rusted away.

When we caught our first salmon, we set our Gift on an altar. Wilfred said a prayer of thanks.

I grimaced at eating raw fish but it really isn’t that bad. Thanking Great Silver came naturally. I added silent thanks for Wilfred — this criminal saint.

He was a fisher of me. And he saved my life. I found myself dreaming of those other fishers of Galilee.

I was so inept at trolling I went back to teaching. I took up my life and rejoined the human race.

I am listening to Lewis Creek 40 years later, with its native salmon and steelhead coming in from the ocean. The laughter of children floats from across the way. Heaven must be like this.

Some say laughter is the best medicine.

I say: fishing is the best medicine.

Wilfred came back. I’m back.

The salmon are coming back. And the tribes.

Fishing: The Best Medicine

Eventuary

Comedy comes to the eventuary The Eventuary, a former funeral home turned multi-purpose event space will ring with laughter when comedians and co-creators of the off-Broadway production The Marijuanalogues make a repeat appearance in Lincoln City.

In the summer of 2011 real-life buds Arj Barker (slacker “Dave” from HBO’s Flight of the Conchords, Comedy Central Presents) and hipster-Brooklynite comedy writer Tony Camin (Real Time with Bill Maher, Late Night with

Conan O’Brien, Jimmy Kimmel Live) performed al fresco on the deck of Nelscott Wine Shop; thankfully the threatening rain didn’t begin until the sold-out show ended.

Doors open at 6 pm, show

starts at 7 pm. $20 advance tickets are available now at Nelscott Wine Shop, 3203 SW Hwy 101, Lincoln City or by calling (541) 996-2898.

Tickets are $25 the night of the show, if available. This is a 21 and older show.

Theater West invites you to ‘Picnic’ Theatre West presents its fall production of Picnic, a drama

by William Inge. The play will be presented on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings from Oct. 11 through Nov. 3. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. and the curtain goes up promptly at 8 p.m.

The box office is open on show days at 2 p.m. Advance reservations for all performances are recommended and can be made by calling (541) 994-5663 and leaving a message.

The play takes place on Labor Day Weekend in the joint backyards of two middle-aged widows.

The one house belongs to Flo Owens, who lives there with her two maturing daughters, Madge and Millie, and a boarder who is a spinster school teacher. The other house belongs to Helen Potts, who lives with her elderly and invalid mother. Into this female atmosphere comes a young man named Hal Carter, whose animal vitality seriously upsets the entire group. Hal is a most interesting character, a child of parents who ignored him, self-conscious of his failings and his position behind the eight ball. Flo is sensitively wary of temptations for her daughters. Madge, bored with being only a beauty, sacrifices her

chances for a wealthy marriage for the excitement Hal promises.

Her sister, Millie, finds her bal-

ance for the first time through the stranger’s brief attention. And the spinster is stirred to make an is-

sue out of the dangling courtship that has brightened her life in a dreary, minor way.

Appearing on the Jack Coyne stage are Amber Hodges as Bomber, Augusta Altman as Irma, Ben Graham as Hal, Bryan Kirsch as Howard, Hailey Morris as Millie, Julie Blair as Christine, Mary Bea Sakraida as Helen, Natalie Collins as Madge, Nicholas Blake as Alan and Tami Keller as Rosemary.

Bonnie Ross is the director of the play. She recently directed The Supporting Cast and appeared in Blithe Spirit. Linda Jackson is the assistant director, Shelby Barton is the lights and sound technician, Stina SeegerGibson and Linda Altman share costumer duties.

Theatre West is located at 3536 SE Hwy. 101 in Lincoln City.

Tickets for the show are $12 for adults, $10 for seniors (62 and up) and for students (over 12) and $8 for children 12 & under. A special group discount is available at $9 per ticket for groups of 10 or more with a pre-paid reservation.

Theatre West is a non-profit, all volunteer community dating back to 1975. For more information about the theatre, visit our website at www.theatrewest.com.
