Rep.

LCSD grad rates take dip Jim Fossum The News Guard

a dropout rate of 4.3 percent.

Oregon’s four-year cohort graduation rate was 68.4 percent, five-year cohort rate 72.4 percent and dropout rate 3.4 percent.

“We can surmise the reasons behind our numbers,” LCSD Superintendent Tom Rinearson said, “but what it comes down to is this: We need a better system of tracking students who stop coming to school, we need to find out why they aren’t coming to school, and we need to respond to them in a meaningful way.”

Lincoln County schools graduated fewer students and had more dropouts by percentage compared to other schools statewide during the 2011-12 school year, according to data released last week by the Oregon Department of Education.

According to the report, Lincoln County School District has a four-year cohort graduation rate of 62.6 percent, a five-year cohort graduation rate of 69.4 percent and

Taft High School Principal Scott Reed, whose school had the lowest dropout rate in the county last year, defended his school’s numbers (63.2 percent five-year cohort rate, 48.2 percent for four years and a dropout rate of 3.5). Taft’s fouryear cohort graduation rate was 62.3 percent last year.

Reed said a decrease in the four-year rate and increase in the five-year rate was likely due to the school’s enhanced education program that allows students to take courses at Oregon Coast Community College, which involved nine

It is a daunting task.

Convert 700,000 medical files from paper to digital.

But that is the process now under way at Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital, Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital in Newport, Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center in Corvallis, Samaritan Albany General Hospital and Samaritan Lebanon Community Hospital.

“This is a very significant change,” said Dr. Elizabeth Lincoln, Samaritan chief medical information officer. “This represents one of the greatest transformations that we have gone though.”

The hospital records change follows national health care reform.

“But the change is also being pushed to protect patient health records, ensure patient safety and quality of care and to make the records more portable,” said Marty Cahill, Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital CEO. Lincoln said the digital record keeping system will alter the way patients receive care.

“In our current environment our nurses do much of the medical entry. Under the digital system, doctors will do the computerized entry and medication delivery,” Lincoln said. “This system will better allow our doctors to stay in touch with each patient and to improve the quality of care.”

According to Lincoln, research shows the use of the digital record system

Oregon Congressman Kurt Schrader makes a point during a discussion with Lincoln County elected officials.

Congressman Schrader listens, gives hope to local elected officials Jeremy C. Ruark The News Guard

Rep. Kurt Schrader (DSalem), Lincoln County’s representative in Congress, came to the Lincoln City City Hall Feb. 1 to meet with 22 Lincoln County elected officials at a roundtable discussion about federal priorities and budget issues. The discussions centered around adequate funding for healthy ports, a plan by the federal government to help coastal communities following disasters like tsunamis and earthquakes, ocean energy development and small business development and survival.

Following the two-hour meeting Schrader said he was impressed with the interest and discussion.

“The people here realize there is no golden pot of money at the end of the rainbow,” said Schrader. “But they are saying what funds are available make sure that small communities get their fair share so they can compete fairly.”

Lincoln City City Manager David Hawker wondered how Congress was working to help cities deal with the economic slowdown.

“Washington is out of touch with the economy in

Lincoln City and the rest of the country,” responded Schrader.

Lincoln City City Councilor Wes Ryan expressed concerns about adequate funding to maintain and repair Highway 101, a key transportation link in Lincoln City.

“It’s pretty shabby and in awful shape,” said Ryan. “The highway is a huge issue here.

We need to ensure that we can bring people in and out of the city safely.”

Schrader said he intends to make sure the Federal Highway Administration steps up to take care of the Highway 101 issues.

“They need to step up,” said Schrader. “The transportation issues are a nightmare.

The requests for attention from Lincoln City are very reasonable.”

Depoe Bay Mayor A.J. Mattila and Depoe Bay City Councilor Barbara Leff voiced concerns about adequate federal funding to maintain and enhance local ports.

“The harbor is essential to the Depoe Bay economy,” said Leff. “Without the harbor we will have a real problem.”

Neff said the Depoe Bay harbor needed to be cleaned of collecting silt.

Schrader believes the federal harbor maintenance fund should be better utilized

for the advantage of small ports like Depoe Bay. “I hate to over promise and under deliver, but I am hopeful,” said Schrader. “We need to allocate the funds appropriate to what the income is. That could be a life saver for these communities that depend totally on economic development and tourism.”

Lincoln County Sheriff Dennis Dotson, Lincoln City Police Chief Keith Kilian and others at the table urged the congressman to help make sure adequate federal funding and planning were also available to deal with the aftermath of emergencies like tsunamis and earthquakes.

They also worried about enough money to help deal with mental health patients that are frequently part of the overcrowding at the Lincoln County Jail.

Lincoln City City Councilor Roger Sprague urged Schrader and Congress to spend less time on gun control and more time on reducing the national debt.

“I will be spending my time on trying to get the national deficit under control so that the economy looks good so people can make money and create jobs across the country and here on the coast,” said Schrader.

Gomberg: Watch for the flashpoints 2013 Oregon Legislature begins new session Jeremy C. Ruark The News Guard

State Rep. David Gomberg is preparing to join his fellow legislators in making tough decisions as the 2013 Oregon Legislature began its

work this week in Salem.

“I am concerned about community college funding,” said Gomberg. “In particular our Small Business Development Center that is critical to our entire small business community.”

Gomberg said Governor Kitzhaber’s plan to restore such funding levels to 2001 levels is encouraging, but he realizes the state budget must be balanced.

“The governor’s budget

is showing some consistent movement rather than constant cuts is predicated on reforming the state’s retirement and public safety systems,” said Gomberg.

“Those two areas are going to be the big flash points during this session.”

Other issues expected to be debated at the session include reducing health care deductions for seniors and gun control legislation.

Samaritan Health Services hospital’s birthing centers, pediatric units to limit visitors hospital stay, not simply four at a time. The designated support people need to be free of flu symptoms and carefully follow infection control guidelines, such as hand washing.

“It is important that we do everything we can to protect children and new moms and their infants from the flu,” said Kathy Hale, vice president of patient care services at Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center in Corvallis.

“Limiting visitors is a key way we can achieve this.”

Pregnant women and children are among those in high-risk categories for com-

plications from influenza-like illnesses, as defined by the Centers for Disease Control.

Limiting visitors to hospital birthing centers and pediatric units reduces the potential for exposure for this vulnerable population.

The best defense against flu viruses, both at hospitals and in the community, is to avoid exposure through the following basic hygiene and infection control measures: • Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or your upper sleeve.

• Wash your hands with soap and water frequently and regularly, or use alcoholbased hand sanitizers when soap and water are not available.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. This is how germs are spread.

• Get your seasonal flu shot (subject to availability).

• If you are sick, stay home.

significantly decreases medical administration errors and improves patient safety through computer-generated warnings and alerts. The system allows each doctor to quickly sort and manage patient information.

“The digital management also allows quick access to patient health records that may be located at a different hospital or medical center. It is a much more efficient system,” she said.

Samaritan officials said moving to digital records would likely cost millions of dollars in software, operating costs, training and education.

But the officials would not provide a specific cost.

“There is not a single price

tag,” said Bob Power, Samaritan’s chief medical officer. “It is a significant investment in the operation to ensure that we are providing the latest technology. There are a lot of moving parts to this.”

Power said while Congress did allocate money to implement the upgrade of the medical records in federal stimulus legislation, it is not enough to cover the entire cost.

“We have built the cost to Samaritan into our long term budget,” said Powers. “If we don’t do this, the cost impact in penalties and reduce Medicaid payments would be significant.”

Samaritan hopes to have the medical records change over at its five hospitals completed by the end of this year. Samaritan North Lincoln

year cohort rate of 48 percent that they published - and there are some people who dispute those numbers - but one of the things we know we’re doing that’s best for kids is the enhanced campus program, where kids who are close to graduation and have a chance to go to college on our dime, basically. We support that as a great opportunity for kids.”

Reed said while his school wants its students to graduate in four years, preparing them for the future is tantamount in these changing times.

“If we’re going to have a choice of helping kids even though it affects our numbers, we’re going to do it,” he said.

Reed said school staff develops a plan to address each individual’s needs even if they transfer into school significantly behind.

“We also have a number of special-needs students who have modified diplomas and those are successful kids for us,” he said. “While they may not graduate in four years,, one of the things that plays into it is we have a lot of students who transfer in behind in credits.

freshman or a sophomore or a junior - even some seniors - if we can make a plan for them to graduate in five years, we’re going to support them.

While they count against our four-year rate, we think that’s a pretty amazing opportunity to continue in their lives.”

Reed said an increase in math requirements was another likely contributor to the figures in addition to the availability of alternate education programs.

In a news release issued last week, the school district explained why the dropout rate is not the inverse of the graduation rate. In other words, a graduation rate of 62 percent does not equate to a dropout rate of 38 percent.

“It is important to note,” it read, that the state tracks graduation rates based on fouryear and five-year cohorts of students, whereas the federal government still requires states to report a one-year dropout rate; this rate is calculated by looking at the number of students who drop out of grades 9-12 in a given school year.”

The overall LCSD dropout rate had been steadily improving for the past decade, with numbers falling from a high

of 7.1 percent in 2000-01 to a low of 2.8 percent in 2010-11.

District officials are reviewing the current data to determine reasons behind the increase in numbers of dropouts, to 4.3 percent.

“There are many reasons why a student chooses to leave school, perhaps to go to work or maybe their families have left the area,” Rinearson said.

“It could be that our data tracking needs to be fine-tuned.

Either way, it’s up to us to reach as many of these kids as we can to make learning relevant and help them to see the value of earning a high school diploma.”

A dropout is defined as an individual who has withdrawn from school and has not enrolled in any other school or ODE-approved program, and who has not received a regular diploma, modified diploma or GED. The dropout rate is calculated by dividing the number of students who drop out of school in a given year by the total number of students enrolled as of Oct. 31 of that school year.

Food Share is the regional food bank that operates six pantries in Lincoln County on a $240,000 annual budget distributing 6,500 pounds of food to about 1,200 households each month.

“Many of those families continue to struggle because of the slow economy,” said Smith. “We are seeing more and more families who have never come to the food pantries before. It is a very hard thing to do when just a few years ago they were fine and never dreamed of stepping into a food bank.”

Smith and the pantry crews are also seeing grandparents who are now raising their children’s children and are forced to seek help feeding the children.

To help meet the need, Food Share continues to operate with expanded hours in the evenings and on weekends.

Food Share’s hunger relief efforts are focused on providing emergency food assistance as well as increasing self-sufficiency for people living on limited resources. The 9-member board of directors is particularly aware of the needs in rural areas of Lincoln County.

“We are always looking to expand services in under-served areas like Otis and south of Waldport,” said Smith. “Our hope is to expand to more rural areas so people have easier access to emergency food. If they don’t have transportation they are isolated.”

Smith said Food Share is also using outreach education because food assessment reports show low-

Food Share operates with USDA commodity food, grants from private foundations and also receives local government funding.

In 2012, Lincoln County distributed $10,000 countrywide to the pantries.

Newport contributed $2,000. The City of Toledo and City of Depoe Bay also have social service funds available to the local pantries. Siletz has not contributed due to a lack of available money. The Confederated Tribes of the Siletz Indians also contributes and Lincoln County Food Share receives food and pass through funds from the Oregon Food Bank.

Food Share also provides senior meals, food for area backpack programs and hot meal sites.

Food Share’s pantries are located in Lincoln City, Waldport, Newport, Toledo, Siletz and Depoe Bay. Local churches also assist the agency with pantry locations. Smith, a full time employee, and 5 part-time workers staff Lincoln County Food Share. About 150 volunteers countywide provide the direct services.

The Food Share fundraiser, Be Jeweled, runs from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. Feb. 9 at the Newport Shilo Inn located at 536 SW Elizabeth St. “The event happens because of all the community partnerships that support the fundraiser,” Smith said.

Be Jeweled is free to the public and involves the resale of donated jewelry.

Smith said it takes hundreds of hours to organize.

“In order to put this event on,” said Smith, “We collect jewelry from the community all year. Our dedicated volunteers collect, sort, clean and price the jewelry for the sale.”

Diamonds By the Sea helps by donating services to appraise the higher end items.

Sheriff’s Tips

Please watch out for emergency personnel Sheriff’s Tips

By Sheriff Dennis Dotson

For police officers, traffic enforcement can be one of the most dangerous activities they perform. Every year, police officers, firefighters, and emergency medical workers are killed or injured

while working along our nation’s highways, enforcing traffic laws or assisting at motor vehicle crashes.

On September 4, 2001, Oregon State Police Trooper Maria Mignano and Albany Police Officer Jason Hoerauf were killed, and Oregon State Police Sergeant John Burright was critically injured when a car struck them while they were assisting a motorist along Interstate 5 near Albany.

In response to these tragic incidents, the 2003 Oregon Legislature created the traffic violation of Failure to Maintain a Safe Distance from an Emergency Vehicle or Ambulance. The law requires that any person operating a motor vehicle who approaches an emergency vehicle, roadside assistance vehicle, tow truck or ambulance which is stopped and displaying warning lights, must move into the lane fur-

thest away from the emergency vehicle, or reduce their speed if unable to move into an adjacent lane.

Here are some tips to follow if you come upon emergency vehicles stopped along the highway displaying warning lights: • If there are two or more lanes in the direction you are traveling, safely make a lane change away from the emergency vehicle’s location; • If there is only one lane,

the law states to reduce your speed by at least five mph below the posted speed.

• If you are approaching the scene of a crash, carefully watch for emergency workers directing traffic and follow all of their instructions.

To Your Health

The importance of Vitamin D in keeping you healthy

By Adrian Gombart

Your best defense against influenza, by far, is to get the flu vaccine. Washing hands, a healthy diet and lifestyle are also important.

But after that, a growing body of research suggests the next best thing you should consider for the prevention of flu and other upper respiratory infections is to make sure you have adequate levels of vitamin D. Most Americans do not.

As one of the worst flu seasons in recent years spreads its misery across the nation, experts in the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University say that more people may want to get their blood levels of vitamin D checked. If too low, they could consider supplements to reach optimal levels of this “sunshine vitamin” that both laboratory and epidemiological studies suggest can help reduce respiratory infection.

The winter cold and flu season corresponds – perhaps by coincidence, perhaps not – with the time of year when most people also

get the least sun exposure and, as a result, drop to their lowest levels of vitamin D. It can be difficult in winter to get adequate vitamin D from diet alone.

Vitamin D affects a wide range of immune functions, both innate and adaptive, that can help a person recognize and respond to both bacteria and viruses, not just the flu but many others.

The number of people in the U.S. with insufficient levels of vitamin D is probably above 60 percent, especially in the northern states, most of Europe and all of Canada.

This problem is critical in the elderly, who may get little of it in their diets, don’t get outside as much, and synthesize vitamin D from sunshine at a rate only about 20 percent that of younger adults.

Vitamin D has anti-inflammatory effects, may improve vaccine response, and is important for the response of immune and epithelial or “barrier cells” in the lungs.

Without adequate vitamin D, these cells don’t adequately express cathelicidin, an antimicrobial peptide gene.

Laboratory studies have shown that this antimicrobial peptide reduced both infection and inflammation, and protected mice against an influenza challenge.

Many studies have been done, both in the laboratory and in clinical trials, and some have conflicting results. One explanation may be that some study participants already had adequate levels of vitamin D. If you aren’t deficient in this nutrient, adding more to your diet isn’t going to offer much benefit. We still need more well-designed clinical trials with a vitamin D deficient population.

Many scientists believe that at least 32 nanograms per milliliter of vitamin D in the blood is a reasonable minimum and some research has found increased protection against upper respiratory infection in people with levels around 38 ng/ml.

But the level now considered insufficient, based primarily on bone health rather than other health outcomes, is less than 20 ng/ml.

The official RDA for vita-

min D was recently raised, and is now 600 IU daily for most adults, 800 IU for the elderly. An intake of 2,000 IU per day for all adults and 400 IU for children should get most people to a blood level of 32 ng/ml or higher.

But this is difficult to achieve through diet alone – a cup of vitamin D fortified milk, for example, has about 100 IU. Historically, studies about adequate vitamin D were focused on bone health, including overt deficiency diseases such as rickets. Scientists now understand this vitamin plays a much larger role in many physiologic functions, especially an appropriate immune response.

There are estimates that one billion people around the world may be deficient, mostly in the temperate zones and higher latitudes, and any population with darker skin color also faces higher risk. Some experts say that in the U.S. more than 90 percent of black, Hispanic and Asian populations have insufficient levels. The primary source of this fat-sol-

uble nutrient is a metabolic response to UV-B radiation in sunshine. Diet plays only a limited role.

The regulation of cathelicidin by vitamin D, which I discovered, is a unique biological pathway that can help explain vitamin D’s multiple roles in immune function.

This pathway exists only in two groups of animals – humans and non-human primates. Its importance for their immune response against infection is highlighted by its conservation through millions of years of separate evolution.

List of Laws

citizens of Lincoln County, eagerly await Dotson’s supreme legal decisions on what is to be strictly enforced and what can be (with his wise blessing) totally ignored. The sheriff’s office is no doubt at this very moment preparing a barrage of press releases announcing which laws are sacred and which are beneath his lofty attention. I hope the News Guard will publish a complete “thumbs-up/thumbs-down” list – Marijuana? Methamphetamines? Public nudity?

Red-light-running? Bank robbery? Animal abuse?

Spouse abuse? Mushroom abuse? Scotch broom on your property? Murdering school children in class?

We all want to be lawabiding; we just thought we had to abide by the laws our law-makers made! Now we know that doesn’t matter. So tell us, Dennis: which laws are your personal faves and which ones can we just, y’know, skip?

Voices of Lincoln County Thanks for Support

Dear Lincoln County Community, We would like to thank you for supporting our high tea benefit for Samaritan House. Samaritan House homeless shelter for families with children provides housing, support and education to help each family attain independence in the community. Our budget covers facility maintenance costs, utilities, staff, insurance and equipment. We get our funds through fundraisers, government grants, donations, and some rent. This year marks the 25th anniversary of Samaritan House and it has survived because of this community and the dedicated people who are working and have worked for Samaritan House. Our general manager is the lowest paid of the non-profit organizations in the area and we would like to make her salary more equitable.

The success of the tea would not have been possible without the financial support and sponsorship of TLC Credit Union. In addition we would like to thank Dawn Aldridge who led us to create a special experience for everyone attending. Committee members Linda Clark, Betty Stier, Sadra Wadsley, Teecia Cornelius, Mary Silverthorn, Ginger Thompson, Marilynn Young, Kathy Windell and Sally Taylor contributed their talents, time and financial support for the event. A wall hanging, designed and created by Virginia Fisher, was donated for the event raffle and highlighted the theme of Helping Hands by creating flowers from the traced hands of children currently living at Samaritan House. Kanger Water’s donation allowed for making

perfect tea, Salishan Lodge donated the use of equipment for ease in kitchen preparations and Paper Mermaids assisted in the creation of special favors and programs. The First Presbyterian Church of Newport was most generous in providing their facility and furnishings, and Sacred Heart Church provided the use of additional chairs.

We are especially appreciative of the 170 people who bought tickets and came to the event, the donations given by those who did not attend and the Lincoln County community who supports our efforts of helping homeless families reach independence.

Gun Control?

I fully support the second amendment. However, I cannot be convinced that there is ANY sane reason for private citizens to possess assault weapons or high capacity magazines. I also fully support background checks for ALL gun purchases.

That said, I was appalled to read that our elected sheriff, who swore an oath of office to uphold the law, has stated that he will not enforce federal gun regulations banning assault weapons. Since when are we allowed to pick and choose which laws we enforce?

None of the president’s proposed legislation calls for coming into people’s homes and taking their guns away from them. That is preposterous!

As a result of these recent events. I will not be voting for Dennis Dotson for re-election.

Dennis Gibson Lincoln City

So Mr. Dotson is going to not support the weapons bill because of his reading of the second amendment and its negative freedom considerations.

How is he taking the so called “Patriot Act” and its denial of freedoms for citizens of the United States? Is he not enforcing them also?

How about defense authorization act 2013, and its denied freedoms, he oppose that too?

Does he have a list of laws he will and will not enforce?

But worst of all he carries a gun with less bullets than those he and his officers must oppose is suicidal.

Lets have less politics and more justice please.

Gary Killpack Lincoln City

Confusing Children

Lincoln County Sheriff Dennis Dotson’s announcement regarding the laws he has decided he won’t enforce may have confused school children and other intelligent people who thought they understood the roles of the three branches of government. But it will probably come as music to the ears of those citizens concerned about government spending.

By eliminating the judicial branch of government and those tiresome entities known as the appellate and supreme courts (both federal and state), we will save a ton of money. No more sitting around for months while Justices Roberts, Scalia, Sotomayor, Ginsburg, et al. decide whether laws are constitutional or not — just ask Dennis Dotson.

I, and all law-abiding

Upholding Laws

Reading the statement by the Lincoln County Sheriff reminded me of a similar statement by Eugene “Bull” Connor in 1962 at Birmingham, Alabama. He also said he would not uphold the law of the land because it went against his principles. So he allowed his police to stand by and watch blacks be beaten and hosed. He was voted out of office the next election.

‘A most excellent job’ – Kate MacLellan retires Gail Kimberling For The News Guard

Young and old; athletic and infirm; fresh out of bed or dressed to the nines – Kate MacLellan saw them all during her 22-year tenure with the Lincoln City Parks and Recreation Department.

“It was a most excellent job,” MacLellan says. “They were 22 incredibly wonderful years.”

MacLellan, who was hired as a secretary and eventually became the department’s administrative coordinator, retired in December.

She worked under former Parks & Rec Director Bob Gibson for a few months, and then spent the next two decades with Ron Ploger until he retired in February 2011.

“It wasn’t near as busy, and we didn’t have the (technological) sophistication we do now,” MacLellan says of her early years with the department.

The majority of MacLellan’s career was spent at the front counter of the Lincoln City Community Center, though she did work for a time out of an office at City Hall.

Her first direct supervisor was Norma Jean Washburn, and Kate recalls, “She was ‘Norma Jean the Queen,’ that’s what kids called her, and I was ‘Kate the Great.’

The seniors couldn’t hear so well and they kept calling me ‘Kay,’ so I corrected them and became ‘Kate the Great.’”

BAMA to hold Meet and Greet on Feb. 10

The leaders of the Bay Area Merchants Association hope to strengthen the business groups image though outreach and education.

“Many people think Lincoln City ends at the Hilltop Inn on Highway 101,” said Kathleen Parks, BAMA vice president.

“We are a vital part of the community. We have a lot

going here in Taft.”

To illustrate the work that the association does and its priorities, BAMA has scheduled a community Meet and Greet for Feb. 10 from 5 - 7 p.m. at the Eventuary located at 560 SW Fleet Avenue in Lincoln City.

“The Meet and Greet is a chance for people to get to know us and what

we are doing,” said Don Williams, BAMA president.

“It’s a way to tell everyone that we are here, come see us and see what we are doing.”

The Association is made up of about 50 Taft area merchants. BAMA has been in existence for about 40 years The association is supported by local businesses, nonprofits and

individuals through annual memberships.

This is the third year for the BAMA Meet and Greet.

“We want to tell people there is more than the Outlet Mall in Lincoln City,” said Williams. “We want people to come down and visit all the independent businesses in the south end of Lincoln City.

We have some of the best beach access and family opportunities here.”

The meet-and-greet will include a supper, entertainment and prizes.

The event is open to the public and is free.

For more information, contact Don Williams at the Nelscott Cafe, 541994-6100.

Generous Tigers give away win JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

While all losses hurt, coaches know that some hurt a little bit more than others.

For Taft boys basketball coach Mark Williams, this one stung.

The Tigers dropped Oregon West Conference home games to Cascade and Stayton last week to fall to 0-6 in league play and 7-12 overall.

If Tuesday’s 58-52 loss to the first-place Cougars was painful, a 55-45 defeat to the Eagles on Friday, Feb. 1, really smarted.

“I’m frustrated,” Williams said. “It’s the first league game where I’m really frustrated because I didn’t think they played that well either. It’s the first league game that I thought that we should have won. There’s been others games where we could have won and put ourselves in position, but this one we should have won.

They didn’t play well, and we played worse.”

Taft, playing the night’s early game before the girls

varsity took the court, came out flat and found itself down 15-0.

“We fought back, as these guys often do, and got back in the game,” Williams said.

“But the thing that killed us in the first half is we couldn’t knock down a shot. When we got good looks, we didn’t make them, and the thing that was most frustrating to me is we know that [number] 12 and 20 are the keys to their team. We had to stop those two and we just didn’t.”

The Eagles (10-10, 3-3) ran a two-man pick-androll with senior guard T.T. Johnson and 6-6 senior post Andrew Reardon and the Tigers failed to execute a defensive switch to combat the tandem. “ This is one we let get away,” Williams said. “We could have won tonight. I don’t know that we’re a better team, but [Stayton] didn’t show up. They didn’t play well. When you get somebody at home and they don’t play well, you’ve got to win that game.”

Williams wouldn’t say his

Tigers should have won its matchup with 19-1 Cascade three days earlier, but he did concede they could have.

“We just battled and worked and we played pretty well in that game, other than being able to keep them off the offensive glass,” he said. “ If we’d have played that way tonight [Friday], we would have won by 10 or 15.”

Helping keep things close was the inside play of senior post Chris Knudson, who “had to deal with three big bodies his size or bigger,” Williams said. “Brent [Martin] played well, Ian [Williams], Keanu [East-

W1

man], Tyler [Lopez]. I think everybody played pretty well tonight.”

On Friday, Williams, in his second season with the Tigers, recognized the impact the “giveaway” game to Stayton could have on his team’s hopes of claiming an Oregon West playoff spot.

“We’ll just work hard every night, play smart every night, and see what happens. It’s been my mantra since I took over,” Williams said. “That’s what we’ll just keep doing. We’ll play one game at a time and we’ll play smart and see what happens.”

Taft senior post player Chris Knudson goes up for a shot in Oregon West Conference action last week.

The Tigers return to action Friday, Feb. 8 at 13-4 Philomath (KBCH-AM 1400), which shares first place

“It’s just kind of an honor for us girls to be going and being able to place and become a family,” Martin said.

“Some of us have been cheering for a long time and we’ve never actually competed, so it’s a great way to say goodbye to each other,” Sweitz said.

The Tigers have been working hard on their routines for three months, and competed at Springfield and

Lake Oswego high schools, improving their routines as they went, Plummer said.

“They’ve been working extremely hard,” Taft Principal Scott Reed said. “I know the last couple competitions they’ve just gotten better and better and are right there.

And, the girls are amazing doing huge stunts and flying the kids around. We’re just especially proud they set a goal for themselves. They’re going to do really well.”

verify precisely when the last time the Tigers made a visit to state, but it was when Kathy West and Tina Marshall last coached the team more than 10 years ago,” Plummer said. A five-member stunt group participated in 2004.

“A few years ago, we actually didn’t even have a cheer program,” Altomare said. “In 2010 Twyla brought it back, so it’s really exciting that we went from zero program to going to state.”

Plummer said the trip to state is a welcome conclusion to a long season for the girls, particularly the seniors, who she said would be hard to replace.

“The girls roll out the mats, move tables, put everything away, have 6 a.m. practices to get gym time,” she said. “Their dedication and willingness to try new things and work so hard, well they deserve everything they’re getting.”

Coastal Youth Taft’s Altomare takes a bow

JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

For all her individual achievements, when Taft High senior Molly Altomare turns 18 Sunday, she’s hoping to wake up alongside a ribbon she and her teammates have just won.

Place or not, Altomare, a tricaptain on the cheerleading squad that will make a rare state playoff appearance on Saturday, Feb. 9, wants to join 14 teammates in giving it her all and being recognized.

Highly decorated as a cheerleader, dancer and in drama at Taft High, Altomare is nearing the end of her high school years with Saturday’s season-ending Oregon Student Activities Association Championships at Memorial Coliseum in Portland.

“Molly is an all-around athlete,” her coach, Twyla Plummer, said.

“She gives 110 percent in cheer, in dance and in academics.”

Altomare was born in Tarzana, Calif., but moved to Lincoln City when she was just a baby. Her parents, Keith and Betsy Altomare, bought the Bijou Theatre in Oceanlake and moved here from California more than 15 years ago.

“I don’t know where I’d be without the theater, let alone my parents,” Altomare said. “My parents are some of my biggest inspirations, and I work as hard as I possibly can to just try to give back to them half as much as they’ve given me. I can’t imagine my life without my parents.”

Molly’s father, Keith Altomare, is a weekday radio host on KBCH-AM (1400) who worked at Rhino Records in California and with many artists and bands such as The Go-Go’s and REM. He still manages a few artists such as Halie Loren, a renowned jazz singer from Eugene.

Her mother, Betsy, worked at Tower Records in Hollywood and with Lenny Kravitz and Guns N Roses, Altomare said.

As an only child, Altomare found an escape in theater and drama. Her involvement in entertainment and athletics has helped her develop her outgoing personality and nurture lasting friendships.

“Sometimes it’s lonely,” she said, “so, thankfully, I have some of the best friends any girl could ever ask for to accompany me and support me throughout every single thing I do.”

With an accumulative GPA of 3.5, Altomare’s favorite subject is math, where she has taken algebra, trigonometry, calculus and writing for college credit. She’s currently

JIM FOSSUM/THE NEWS GUARD

Taft senior Molly Altomare has been a major part of the school’s athletic and drama programs. taking advanced calculus.

“School is a huge part of my life,” she said. “ I work my very hardest to succeed as best as I can in my education. I participate in cheerleading and dance team, but I truly am a student before an athlete.”

A member of the Associated Student Body (ASB), Altomare is Taft senior class secretary-treasurer and works hard to set up events, assemblies and activities.

“She’s a fantastic kid and leader,” Taft Principal Scott Reed said. “ She’s a good student, she has good character, a lot of family support and is just a neat kid all around.

She’s just been a very positive influence all around the school. “ “We like to set a nice example for our school, since we are student leaders,” said Altomare, who works part time at the Bijou and as a waitress at Nelscott Café.

Outside of high school and all her outside activities, Altomare says she likes to gather with friends, “just like any other teenager.”

“We like to hang out, eat, laugh, and watch movies and TV,” she said.

Not surprisingly, her favorite movies are “Grease,” “500 Days of Summer,” anything Disney, and, of course, any of the cheerleading “Bring It On” movies. She watches “America’s Next Top Model,” “Desperate Housewives” and “Jeopardy” and listens to and sings every genre of music, some of her favorites being Colbie Caillat, Beyonce, and Drake.

And, of course, there are sports, especially the NBA, where her favorite team is the Portland Trail Blazers.

“I can only dream of dancing down on the Blazer basketball court before a game,” she said.

Since eighth grade, Altomare has played a major role in the high school’s drama program. Although there won’t be a spring musical this year, she directed and starred as the evil villain Maleficent in “Sleeping Beauty” last year.

“It was such an amazing experience to not only act in such a large

role,” she said, “but also direct the show myself and make it my own show, all with the help of my amazing friends.”

Cheerleading and dance are a huge part of Altomare’s life. She has been dancing for 13 years and cheerleading for three.

“Each year it has brought me more and more joy,” she said.

“Cheerleading and dance team are so different in the way you move, so it’s great to have the best of both worlds.”

Altomare said she loves the tight, sharp movements in cheerleading and the flowing, swift and graceful movements of dance.

“I’m a performer at heart, so any chance I get — cheerleading, dancing, acting, singing — I’ll grab,” she said.

A varsity cheer and dance team captain, Altomare was among three Taft cheerleaders selected from a United Spirit Association cheerleading camp to be named an All-Star and earn the opportunity to travel to London, along with about 700 other cheerleaders and dancers, to perform in the 2012 New Year’s Day parade.

Altomare joined teammates Kaela Luck (who has graduated) and Kerry Ann Sweitz touring, exploring and shopping. Among the sites they visited were Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Windsor Castle, Piccadilly Circus, Oxford Street and churches where royal weddings have been held.

“It was an amazing experience that I will never forget,” she said.

Nor will she forget becoming the only Taft student to make the Thunderbird All-Star Dance Team at an elite dance camp held last July at the University of Portland.

She has won numerous ribbons in cheerleading and dance for motions, high jumps, drill-down and performance.

“She’s a wonderful leader for the student body,” Plummer said. “She sets a great example in just how she presents herself. She’s a very well-rounded young lady. I’m very proud of her and the community and Taft High should be as well.”

Altomare plans on attending Oregon State in the fall, where she hopes to make the dance or cheer team and study psychology.

“I know it will be a lot of work to dance or cheer at the collegiate level, but I am so willing to push myself to fulfill my passion,” she said. “I can definitely see dance and cheerleading in my future.”

Taft girls look for positives in defeat JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

Oregon West Girls Basketball Standings

Junior Taylor Adams and senior Jessie Wisniewski again assumed the bulk of the scoring burden, but it wasn’t nearly enough as the Taft High girls basketball team dropped two home Oregon West Conference games last week.

Winless in league play at 0-6, the Tigers’ five-year losing streak against Class 4A opponents reached 80 games following 67-33 and 51-21 losses to Cascade and Stayton.

Adams led Taft in scoring with 19 points in a Tuesday, Jan. 29, loss to the Cougars (14-5 overall, 5-1 Oregon West) and seven in a Friday, Feb. 1, defeat to the Eagles (614, 2-4), but not all was bad in defeat.

Leading 10-6 after the first quarter of Tuesday’s game, Cascade opened more aggressively in the second quarter to double the score on the Tigers at halftime, 30-15.

“Our girls really hung in there during the first period,” Mock said. “Cascade increased their pressure during the second quarter, which traditionally is their strong suit, and we began to struggle

getting the ball to where we wanted to go as a result.

“As a coach, one positive I really took from this game was watching some of our girls figure out how to effectively attack certain things they saw on defense. Some of those things might seem a bit trivial to the casual fan, but it was a step in the right direction for us.”

An example, Mock said, was the ability of point guard Karli Martin to draw the attention of a defender, enabling a teammate to sneak behind the defense for some open offensive looks.

“It is a really simple tactic,” he said, “but an ‘ahha’ moment for some of our girls.”

Taft’s girls had an “oh-no”

moment three nights later when Stayton came to town.

The Eagles held Taft scoreless in the first quarter and to just five points at half in a game they wound up winning by 30.

“When we played Stayton earlier this season, they hurt us with their offensive rebounding, they converted some easy baskets off of our turnovers, and [senior guard Presley Gescher] shot the heck out of the ball,” Mock said. “Though turnovers continue to plague our team, I felt really good about significantly reducing that in our rematch. It was actually one of our better efforts all season facing full-court pressure.”

On the other hand, Taft

And that was putting it mildly.

“Honestly, terrible isn’t a strong enough adjective to describe how awful our shooting was,” he said. “It was really the story of the game in my eyes. We had an

ample amount of opportunities to score in the first half, and time after time we came away empty-handed.”

Its perimeter defense also betrayed the Tigers.

“Time and again we lost track of Stayton’s best shooter (Gescher], even though defending her was a point

of emphasis going into the game. That was just a lack of defensive awareness, and it is something we cannot allow to happen going forward.”

The Tigers are at Philomath (15-3, 4-2) on Friday, Feb. 8, and host Central (14-5, 5-1) at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 12.

Taft girls swimmers continue dominance JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

Senior Marlee Garding won two races and helped the Taft High girls place first in the 400-meter freestyle relay as the Tigers won for the sixth time in eight meets

this season Tuesday, Jan. 29 at the Pre-District Invite at the Lincoln City Community Center pool.

“They have a lot of depth and work very hard,” Taft coach Lissa Parker said. “It was an intense and busy meet with 151 swimmers entered. These

points, followed by Gladstone, 246; Central, 232; Newport, 193; Tillamook, 192; and Rainier, 52.

Rainier won the boys meet with 291 points, followed by Tillamook, 278; Newport, 213; Central, 183; Gladstone, 162; and Taft, 138.

Garding, her younger sister, freshman Madison, and senior Destiny Zook each earned victories for the Tigers, with Marlee leading the way by winning the 100-meter butterfly (1:20.54) and 400-meter freestyle (5:21.06).

Little sister Madison, two years younger at 15, won the 200-meter free (2:34.78), while Zook claimed the 100-meter breaststroke (1:27.99).

Zook was second in the 200-meter individual medley, while senior Brittney Knight placed second in the 100

backstroke.

Senior Cammeron Kelso was the top boys’ finisher, placing second in the 200 IM. “[The boys] do really well, too, but their numbers make it hard for them to be contenders,” Parker said as just six Taft boys competed against five teams with double the size in numbers. “As with all other teams and general population, everyone is fighting the flu and sickness, so it is doubly hard for them to compete.”

The competition marked the last home appearance for seniors Dan Stecher, Kassie Gile, Marlee Garding, Kelso, Knight and Zook.

Parker said Stecher excelled in his first attempt at swimming the 400 free, while Gile placed third in the 100 fly and teamed with the Garding sisters and Zook to win the

400 free relay. “[The seniors] will be hard to replace,” Parker said. “Our freshmen and those new to the sport (Katie McCardell, BillyAnn Stempel, Catey Payne, Charli Haft, Eva Barten, etc.) are the ones dropping the most times and gaining confidence. The freshmen, like Madison, Dylan [Mickelson] and Justin [Delfin], are getting faster and will be great additions to replace our seniors.”

Taft competes in the District meet this weekend, Feb. 8-9, in Astoria to determine qualifiers for the state championships, Feb. 15-16 at Mt. Hood Community College in Gresham.

“It won’t be easy,” Parker said. “Seaside and Astoria have some fast relays for girls and Newport and Tillamook boys will be contend.”

A multifaceted volunteer Unsung Heroes

By Janet Anderson

Originally, my intent in going to visit with Marion Rodenburg was to write a story about a long time citizen volunteer in the domestic violence world. She has worked with My Sisters Place here in Lincoln County for many years, working both in the office and at the shelter directly with clients.

But, after we chatted for a few minutes it soon became obvious that this is a multitalented, multifaceted woman. Her home includes an admirable library. She moved into a home that had an unfinished room. Built in bookcases soon filled the room. And I mean filled. You know how you see books stacked on the floor because there are so many down at Robert’s Books in Nelscott? Well, Marion’s library has a little of that flavor. She promises to reform her ways.

She does that by volunteering at the Friends of the Driftwood Library book sale every Monday from 10-3 in the large room down at the south end of the library. “Oh yes, I promise not to bring any more books home unless I get rid of some.” We all know that promise, don’t we? And she actually talked about her books as old friends, ones that she has actually read.

Our interview took place that morning only after I was sure that the icy roads had melted. She lives up a hill and the cold weather was the talk of the town. Marion also volunteers at the Congregational Church’s Warming Shelter. The church opens its doors on subfreezing nights to folks who need a warm place to sleep. They provide sleeping bags and blankets to the homeless who then take the bags with them when they leave the warming shelter. She told me that the hardest part of the Warming Shelter is taking the 3 a.m.-7 a.m. shift in providing supervision and protection to the shelter. 11 p.m.- 3 a.m. is not a good shift either!

My Sisters Place offers shelter from domestic violence, group discussion, information about sources of help in the community at large, and emotional refuge. Their Mission Statement reads, “Our mission is to support victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and dating abuse in Lincoln County by providing shelter, practical assistance, and promoting community awareness.” Making a safety plan with victims is crucial.

In addition to the women and children who seek shelter, they now offer refuge to their pets. This is a little known area of domestic violence. Women frequently are reluctant to leave a dangerous situation because they have no way to take their pets with them. Now they can bring them to a secure kennel area.

Marion’s involvement began when she moved from the Bay Area of California. After she retired she had begun to work with the suicide prevention organization in her area. Since there is no local organization here for that, she turned to My Sisters Place. And it has been a wonderful fit. She is highly regarded by the staff. She has been working with the shelter since 1994. In the volunteer world that is a long time.

The best thing for her is getting to know the clients and the staff.

Listening to the success stories of the clients is a satisfying part of this volunteer work. She was on the Board of Directors for three terms.

She served as the secretary. She had ongoing volunteer training with the District Attorney’s office and Mental Health Professionals. The most difficult part was not giving cash to individual clients.

Thank you, Marion, for all you do. You are appreciated.

If interested in volunteering for My Sisters Place, call 541-994-5959.

Volunteers and their dedication, perseverance, generosity, and creativity constantly amaze me. These are folks dedicated to doing for the benefit of the good. No paycheck, no gold sticky stars, no red carpet or gold plated statue. Multiply that by all the little towns, and the big towns, across our country and planet and you have a powerful force. Sort of bolsters my faith in human beings in these pessimistic days. Being a cockeyed optimist is tough sometimes.

Antique Week

Schedule of events Feb. 8-18

Jim Fossum The News Guard

Abraham Lincoln was born Feb. 12, 1809, in a small cabin on Sinking Spring Farm near Hodgenville, Ky. Those are the kind of things you can learn Feb. 8-18 in celebration of his birthday during Lincolnthemed Antique Week in Lincoln City.

The longest running event held by the Lincoln City Visitor and Convention Bureau (LCVCB) and in its 23rd year, more than 80 stores and dealers citywide will be among the places to be for antique and collectible enthusiasts. Several President Lincoln-oriented events will be held in conjunction with sales and appreciation of antiques.

“This is a slower time for the tourism industry in Lincoln City, and this is obviously a great way to kick off sales for our antique stores,” Suzanne Treece, LCVCB special events coordinator, said.

“And, it brings in locals and thousands of visitors to the area every year.”

In addition to an antique store scavenger hunt, various sales and promotions will be featured at businesses throughout Lincoln City. A map of the participating businesses and schedule of events can be found online at www.oregoncoast.org and at various locations throughout town (see panel).

The Lincoln City Cultural Center will stage a number of events, including presentation of “A. Lincoln” on Feb. 9 and 10, where actor Steve Holgate, praised as the “best Lincoln in America,” will bring Lincoln alive in a two-act play that follows Lincoln through his days as a young lawyer, early days in politics and into the Civil War. Collectors can have their wares appraised by a panel of local experts on Feb. 17 for $5 per item, with proceeds benefiting the cultural center’s Antique Week fund.

Space is limited and pre-registration suggested. Live entertainment such as “Lindsay Lou and the Flatbellys” will take the stage on Valentine’s Day, Thursday, Feb. 14, and “Past Forward “ will perform Feb. 16.

Among the other highlights will be “Abraham Lincoln, the Oregon Connection” exhibit at the North Lincoln County Historical Museum, 4907 S.W. Highway 101.

From Wednesday through Sunday, the free exhibit will feature Lincoln memorabilia and collectibles and show how he was connected to the state of Oregon, a state he never visited. It will tell how Lincoln played an important

Quilts will be on display at the North Lincoln County Historical Museum during the 23rd running of Antique Week in Lincoln City. role in the founding and naming of Lincoln County, how Lincoln City got its name and the history behind the Lincoln statue near the Lincoln City Community Center.

A quilt exhibit at the museum will feature a collection of historical quilts of Lincoln County. The best collections of the museum

and the Lincoln County Historical Society will be on display, along with a few special quilts on loan for the exhibit.

A quilt documentation day is also scheduled at the museum. The Oregon Coast Quilters Guild will examine and document quilts that were made before 1960 and are now owned by someone in Lincoln County. Documentation includes a record of owner and maker data, physical condition and aspects of the quilt’s design, construction and heritage, if known.

In addition, a Lincoln book display will be available for viewing all week at the Driftwood Public Library, 801 Highway 101. The library also will host a “Price It!” workshop detailing a new resource for researching and pricing antiques and collectibles.

For glass art enthusiasts, the LCVCB will place nearly 500 pieces of glass art on the beaches from Feb. 10-18. Glass art includes more than 300 antique Japanese glass floats, contemporary floats, glass sand dollars and crabs. To honor Valentine’s Day and the historic Red Head Roundup, 40 red glass floats will be hidden on the beach.

The Oscar nominated film, “Abraham Lincoln in Illinois” will be shown at the Bijou Theatre, 1624 N.E. Highway 101. Widely regarded as one of the best Lincoln films, the 1940 classic, originally a Pulitzer Prize winning play, is directed by John Cromwell and stars Raymond Massey as Lincoln.

Historians will be interested in the “Guided Historical Tour of Lincoln City,” which will explore local history as participants travel through the communities that, in 1965 incorporated to become Lincoln City For further information on Antique Week, contact the LCVCB at 800-452-2151, Treece at 541-9961273, email streece@lincolncity. org, or visit www.oregoncoast.org/ antique-week.

Lincoln comes to LCCC Feb. 9-10 Steve Holgate, praised as one of the best President Lincoln interpreters in the United States, will return to the Lincoln City Cultural Center to perform his two-act play, “A. Lincoln,” on Saturday, Feb. 9, and Sunday, Feb. 10.

Holgate, an actor of 40 years’ experience, has been a Lincoln presenter for 12 years, and loves to offer his audiences rare insights into the life of Abraham Lincoln, including his personal tragedies as well as some of his favorite jokes and even his poetry. He can discuss the president’s years in the White House, the dark era of the Civil War and the momentous decisions he was forced to make.

Called “the best Lincoln in America,” Holgate has a remarkable resemblance to the 16th president, enhanced by costume and makeup. He has appeared in Oregon, Washington, California and Idaho as well as overseas, earning praise from the Portland Oregonian, Corvallis GazetteTimes, Albany Democrat-Herald and Vancouver Daily Columbian.

Thousands have seen him perform live, and many others on “A House Divided,” the special aired on OPB Television.

He brought his “Lincoln Live” press conference presentation to the center last February, to a sold out house. This February, he’ll be performing “A. Lincoln,” a fuller and more intimate portrait of Lincoln, from his days as a young lawyer, through his early struggles in politics and into the crucible of the Civil War. Performances are set for 7 pm Saturday, Feb. 9, and 2 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 10. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door, free for children 12 and under. Wine, beer and concessions will be sold in the auditorium, and doors open ½ hour before showtime. For tickets and information, call the volunteer box office at 541-9949994, or drop by between 10 and 4, Thursday through Monday.

These performances of “A. Lincoln” are part of the center’s “History Lives” series, supported by a grant from the city’s Visitor

President Lincoln as played by Steve Holgate Development Funds grant program. Lodging will be donated by the Historic Anchor Inn. As part of its educational outreach program, the Lincoln City Cultural Center will be sending Pres. Lincoln to visit the students of the Isaac Newton Middle School and Newport Intermediate School, on the day before the performance.

Be Jeweled sparkles in support of Food Share of Lincoln County Be Jeweled, the annual recycled jewelry extravaganza sale that benefits Food Share of Lincoln County, will take place on Saturday, Feb. 9, from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. at the Newport Shilo Inn, 536 SW Elizabeth St. This year marks the sixth anniversary for this highly successful event, which does much to help alleviate hunger throughout Lincoln County.

“The stories the jewelry tells, the verve of the donors, sellers, and buyers, plus the positive energy of supporting a great cause add to the fun and excitement,” said Priscilla O’Brien, co-chair.

Currently Food Share and its partner agencies distribute an estimated 65,000 pounds of food each month in response to the need in

our community. Local statistics show that an average of 1200 households per month access emergency food in Lincoln County.

Many volunteers have spent the past several months gathering and sorting the jewelry donations that have come in. Beads, antique and fine jewelry, exotic pieces, and costume jewelry are just some of the categories represented. Jewelry components are available, as well as watches and watch pieces. The fine pieces have been appraised.

For the first time in its history, Be Jeweled is presenting a selection of new jewelry graciously donated by local artists. These handmade pieces will be priced at retail, and are excluded from the half-price sale. Among the partici-

pants are Ann Nicholson, Paula Cline-Jones, Anja Chavez, Cheri Aldrich, Alita Pearl, Linda Cline, Rhonda Chase and Katy Lareau. In addition, Rosie (the wildwoman) Fischer and her mother, Virginia Voehringer (the seniorwildwoman), have created a fiber/gem necklace and earrings set, titled Emerald Queen, that comes with an accompanying letter and testament of love from mother to daughter.

At 11:15 the sale closes briefly and items are sorted and reorganized for the half-price sale starting at noon.

For more information, contact Food Share Director Nancy Smith at 541-265-8578.

insurance, late fees, attorney’s and trustee’s fees and costs, and interest due at the time of reinstatement or sale.

By reason of said defaults, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligations secured by said Trust Deed immediately due and payable, said sums being the following, towit: Payoff in the sum of $242,205.38 as of November 2, 2012, plus taxes, liens, assessments, property expenditures, insurance, accruing interest, late fees, attorney’s and trustee’s fees and costs incurred by beneficiary or its assigns.

herein that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or Trust Deed, and in addition to paying said sum or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and Trust Deed, together with trustee’s and attorney’s fees not exceeding the amounts provided by said ORS 86.753.

In construing this notice, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor� includes any successor in interest to the grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by said Trust Deed, and the words “trustee� and “beneficiary� include their respective successors in interest, if any.
