BLUES’ Bid For First Stanley Cup Gives Fans Plenty To Cheer About

Kirkwood’s Geyer Inn, owned by former St. Louis Blue Jim “Soup” Campbell & his wife, Jennifer, is a popular watering hole for enthusiastic hockey fans by Spencer Gleason

The game of hockey has always been in Jim Campbell’s blood. Born in Massachusetts, the former St. Louis Blues player grew up in a family of boys. He and his three brothers played the sport. And, all four received college scholarships. “It was the thing to do in the Campbell family,” he said.

The hockey crowd gathered at the Geyer Inn located in Kirkwood. photo by Ursula Ruhl After four seasons wearing the Blue Note, from 1996-2000, and 285 games in the National Hockey League (NHL) playing on five teams, Campbell has continued to call Kirkwood his home. “We kept a place there (throughout my career),” he said. “When I played for the Blues, I met my wife in Kirkwood and we’ve lived there ever since.”

Life at the Geyer Inn Campbell visited the Geyer Inn in the 1990s. Originally built in 1904 as a gas station, the Geyer Inn, located at 220 S. Geyer in Kirkwood, became a pub in the 1930s. The building still has the same storefront. “I had been in there and checked it out. Everybody has to check out the Geyer at least once,” Campbell said. “I

always liked it because I was living in Kirkwood and I thought it could have great potential.” Then, after previous owner Frank Rodman died in 2010, the opportunity arose to purchase it. Aside from Campbell visiting there as a player, the Geyer Inn had a connection to Campbell’s family. His cont. p. 11A

Voters To Decide Pair Of Tax Hike Proposals On Aug. 2 Ballot

Women Claim Harassment After Posting On Facebook

One would fund new fire station; sales tax to help in operation of fire department

Say problems stem from comments on Webster Community Connect Facebook

by Mary Shapiro

The Glendale Board of Aldermen on May 16 gave final approval to placing two tax hike proposals on the Aug. 2 ballot. Proposition S will ask voters whether the city can issue up to $8 million in general obligation bonds over 20 years to build a new fire station and renovate the police station and city hall complex. An estimated 38-cent per $100 of assessed valuation property tax increase will be needed to fund the bond issue. Proposition F would impose a quartercent sales tax for the operation of the fire

department, including acquisition and maintenance of a fire pumper truck and emergency medical services. Glendale is the only city in the area with a fire department that does not have that quarter-cent fire sales tax. More than 30 residents attended an informational forum held just before the vote. Another forum is set for 9 a.m. on Saturday, May 21, at city hall, 424 N. Sappington Road. Plans are for continued public engagement sessions to answer questions and explain the ballot proposals and projects, according to City Administrator Jaysen Christensen. He noted that at the upcoming Jazzfest on May 27 there will be a booth where people can have questions answered. “We’ll also put out more information on our cont. p. 9A

Some women who use the Webster Groves Community Connect Facebook page say they are being harassed for speaking out on various issues. The page, not affiliated with the city, is dedicated to activities and discussions about the community. At the May 17 Webster Groves City Council meeting, resident

Jennifer Grotpeter complained that an old toilet – part of construction debris from Lee Avenue more than three miles away from her home — was dumped in her front yard during the early morning hours. In the last few months, another woman who comments on the Facebook page found a vacuum cleaner with a profanity-laced note left at her home, according to Grotpeter. A woman who lives near Hixson Middle School had her car and driveway “decorated” with silly string and a profanitylaced note. “We’ve had no luck with law cont. p. 4A

Calvin Coolidge Is Dead by Don Corrigan

corrigan@timesnewspapers.com

President John Calvin Coolidge rebuffed the progressives and do-gooders of his era by explaining to them that “the business of America is business” — and business did not have time for them and their issues. Times have changed. Business has developed more of a social conscience. There are many examples of this, and they range from concern about the environment, to a commitment to raise the minimum wage voluntarily, to programs to reward healthy habits and behaviors of employees. In Missouri, we have an amazing instance in which business stepped in and righted a wrong. Corporations and chambers of commerce read the riot act to the state legislature as it moved to pass SJR 39 this session. SJR 39 was all about denying goods and services to same-sex couples if the suppliers felt these people violated their religious beliefs. A baker could refuse to supply a wedding cake and a caterer could refuse service for a same-sex wedding. The business community stepped up to the plate and

told legislators the state should not be promoting discrimination — and the bill was killed. Business in President Coolidge’s era was not interested in any enlightened social policy or arcane subjects such as the environment or medical care. Not so today. There are some big exceptions, but more businesses are interested today in environmental stewardship, health issues and more. One might think the majority party would take a cue from business and work to improve health care in the state. One would be dead wrong. Every year, 300,000 Missourians are left uninsured because they fall within the Medicaid gap. Legislators refuse to accept federal dollars for medical care; refuse to listen to hospitals, healthcare services and chambers of commerce urging them to act. The state legislature has a tin ear for a business community urging them to expand Medicaid and inject $2.3 billion into the state economy. Never mind 24,000 additional jobs that would be created and the improved

health of state citizens. One might also think the majority party would take a cue from business and discuss some legislation to address the state’s environment and to protect its great outdoors. One would be dead wrong. This retrograde legislature has not only ignored the sustainable practices of environmentally-conscious companies, it has actually considered ways to ban use of the term “sustainability” from any state government entity. This session, our state legislative majority has discussed ways to weaken air and water pollution rules; at the same time, it has looked for ways to sell public lands previously acquired for use as parks for the people. So, the bad news here is we have a retrograde legislature. The good news is our business community is increasingly at odds with legislators — and is letting them know about it. It’s time Missouri legislators realize their beloved era of Calvin Coolidge is over.

Task Force: Closing The Achievement Gap Plan presented to close gap between district’s white and African American students by Jaime Mowers

The Kirkwood School District is confronting its achievement gap between white and African American students head on, and has come up with a plan for tackling it. The task force aimed at eliminating the achievement gap, which is made up of more than 60 teachers, administrators, parents and community members, has met several times over the past year exploring data and developing a plan to boost the achievement of the district’s African American students. From those discussions, the task force has devised a one-year plan with multiple steps to provide the district guidance in its efforts to close the

achievement gap. The task force hopes the plan, which was approved by the school board earlier this week, will lead to immediate progress. The achievement gap between the district’s white and African American students ranges from 30 to 60 percent in English/language arts and 43 to 60 percent in math, according to the district’s 2015 MAP test scores for students in grades three through eight. “We have gaps – we have significant gaps – and there are systemic problems perpetuating these gaps, which is frustrating because we’ve already been working to address the gaps,” said Bryan Painter, assistant superintendent of curriculum and instruction for the district, who is helping lead the task force. The task force’s multi-step plan includes forming a study group to explore early learning opportunities in the district and within the community, designing a multi-year training/development program for all

new employees, beginning an audit of current policies, procedures and curriculum, and much more. In light of exploring possibilities for early learning opportunities, Board Member Julie Backer said she would like to see the district discuss making preschool available to all students. “I feel strongly about the idea of free preschool,” she said. “Previous task forces (also aimed at closing the achievement gap) have tried a lot of things, but we haven’t talked about or tried free preschool.” Other steps in the task force’s plan include conducting equity walks and audits in all buildings at least three times a year, expanding existing efforts to hire and retain a diverse staff, and holding regular meetings and forums to strengthen the relationships the district has with community members and its partners. The task force also wants to design

Donation To Fund Renovation Of Glen Park Michael & Kathe Silverman have pledged up to $250,000 for new playground, picnic pavilion by Mary Shapiro

Webster Groves’ Glen Park could soon be getting some playground renovations and a new picnic shelter pavilion thanks to a planned donation from a couple who live nearby. Director of Parks and Recreation Scott Davis told the Webster Groves City Council during a May 17 work session that Michael and Kathe Silverman want to donate up to $250,000 for improvements at the small neighborhood park. Located at Newport and East Kirkham avenues, the park currently has a ballfield and playground. The couple has already paid $1,000 for some preliminary design work, but has pledged up to $250,000, if they and

the city can come to an agreement for a design, Davis said. “The playground would have a ropes course, tree house, rope climber, and multi-user swing and the pavilion structure would have room for a couple of picnic tables,” Davis said. “The city will get the final say on what goes in the park, but the Silvermans would fund projects in advance. Then we would do contracts for work.” Davis said the couple also would fund 10 percent – as a one-time cost – for future maintenance needs at the park over the coming 15 years. “We think this is a huge win for the park, and it will be good to enhance it and upgrade an old, small playground,” Davis said. “It’s not often

someone drops out of the sky with a blank check.” The pavilion – which would not be big enough for the city to rent out – might be used for local concerts, he said. Davis said the couple has asked that the pavilion be named for Michael’s late mother and would be called the Silverman Pavilion. Work likely would not start on the project, if approved, until mid to late summer, he said. “This is pretty cool – maybe it could spur other donors,” Mayor Gerry Welch said. City Attorney Helmut Starr said the donation could become tax deductible if done directly to the city through its Webster Groves Foundation, similar to the way public artworks have been donated.

Budget Update Shows Increase In Revenue Revenue up 2.339 percent from June 2015 by Charles Bolinger

The Webster Groves School District Board of Education on May 9 heard a 2015/16 budget update from Diane Moore, assistant superintendent and chief operations officer for the Webster Groves School District. The update reflects an increase to the district’s surplus of more than $224,000. Revenue variance from the first adopted budget in June 2015 to this update is 2.339 percent while the expenditure variance is 0.493 percent. Property tax revenues rose by $89,000, based upon simulations for fourth quarter property tax receipts for the past seven years. With two months remaining in the fiscal year, the district has collected $3.1 million

of the estimated $3.6 million in Prop C sales tax revenue. Moore found that the State Adequacy Target (SAT) may rise in May and June of this year. The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education already increased the SAT in April, generating an additional $45,000 in state funding. Other federal funding increased more than $526,000, stemming from an increase in debt service and Internal Revenue Service rebates to help retire the district’s 2010 bond issue. Typically, the IRS gives Webster schools two rebate payments annually. In 2014-15, the district received one; in 2015-16, it received three.

On the expenditure side of the ledger, the update assumes all current encumbrances are spent by June 1 and invoices for all expenses are due to Moore’s office by that date. The district submitted invoices to its insurance company totaling slightly more than $100,000 this fiscal year for facility clean-up and to replace items lost in the central office lower level flood during winter break. Moore said it is unknown if its insurance company will reimburse the district during the current school year or the next one. Final adjustments will be provided for the next board meeting on June 27. No board action is required until next month’s meeting, when Moore will provide a final update.

Resident Raises Concern Over Pulte’s Plan by Linda Jarrett

Charleville Drive resident Russ Politte asked the Rock Hill Board of Aldermen on Tuesday to “keep him in the loop” on any changes that involve the proposed redevelopment on the west side of McKnight Road and a portion of Charleville. The Pulte Corporation has approached the city with a proposal for a residential development on the 2.7 acre site that includes 17 properties. Politte’s property is not in the current buyout area. “If I’m left behind, that’s great, but we need to follow through and make sure about the buffer zones and screening areas,” he said. “I know that MSD is coming through next year with their project and someone needs to coordinate that project or you’ll have two projects back to back,” he said. According to Politte, CVS did not follow through on its landscaping detail. City Administrator Jennifer Yackley said the city has sent out requests for proposals on the project. “Pulte made an offer to the owners of these properties,” she said. “We have sent out RFPs because Pulte requested tax assistance. “The rule is if you’re going to request tax abatement, we have to send out an RFP to see if any other developers are interested,” she said. The RFPs are due June 1. Sales Tax On Aug. 2 Ballot The board of aldermen voted to put a proposition on the Aug. 2 ballot that would allow the city to continue to collect local sales tax on motor vehicles, trailers, boats, and outboard motors that were purchased from a source other than a licensed Missouri dealer.

enforcement taking us seriously,” Grotpeter said. She said the only common thread is that all three women are outspoken on the Community Connect web page. “One woman, for example, was taken to task for supporting law enforcement when she asked a gift shop owner not to sell silly string to middle schools students,” Grotpeter said. “Another mom had said she kept an eye on kids she had seen on railroad tracks.” Community Connect has sometimes been a place for “vociferous debate,” Grotpeter said. She added that she felt like “there’s an element that’s trying to shush us, that wants women to be quiet.” Police Chief Dale Curtis told the council that police reports have been taken. “I understand this is a quality of life concern,” said Curtis. “But we’re limited in what we can do. I disagree with the idea that law enforcement doesn’t care, and we do take this seriously. But we have no control over Community Connect, and it’s difficult to develop a suspect.”

Kirkwood Schools: Be Honest With Taxpayers I read with amazement the May 5 article in which Bill Bauer, member of the revenue committee of the Kirkwood School District, projected $7.5 million in new construction this year in the school district. Let’s do a little math. A new home is for sale on West Washington for $899,000. Let’s be conservative and value the tear down at $200,000 and the eventual sale price of the new home at $700,000. That would equal $500,000 in new construction in just one home, or onefifteenth of Mr. Bauer’s projection. Three more homes are under construction within two blocks of our example above, four on Simmons, one on Cleveland, three on Evans, three on Harrison, three on Woodbine, and one on Geyer. That’s 18. Can

it be true that ALL projected new construction for the entire school district for the whole year is under construction currently in this small portion of Kirkwood? The article also says that the $7.5 million in new construction will result in $277,000 of new revenue for the district, or 4 percent. The rate according to the St. Louis County Department of Revenue website is actually 4.8845 percent, so even the $277,000 projection is $366,000. I’m not even going to try understand the comment in the article that “…of the $277,000, only about $130,000 comes from new construction, and then about $100,000 of that goes to the district’s operating fund.” There is no mention of where the other $30,000 is allocated.

The administration and school board continue to not understand why taxpaying citizens do not trust their numbers. It seems every article or explanation is written in such a way as to be confusing and smoke and mirrors-type logic. Pardon me if I feel this is an ongoing effort to shame those of us (the majority by the way) who voted against the tax increase last year. Until the school district administration can be honest about the finances and stop punishing taxpayers who rightly feel that they should be accountable for how other people’s money is spent, they will continue to lack confidence from Kirkwood residents. Rhonda Lally Kirkwood

District Decision Caused Cuts Not Voters In a February letter, John Wieser employed U.S. Census data to show that the number of Kirkwood senior citizens was insufficient to solely account for the 60 percent “no” vote for the Kirkwood School District’s Prop A. The same census data identifies another “no” voter segment: households earning less than the median income of $77,420. This segment includes more than half of all Kirkwood households. Residents of these households may have realized that they were being asked to transfer wealth to underwrite the burden of multi-million dollar district capital assets which produce

negligible employable skills, and thus voted “no.” In addition, the school district’s business plan of raising the property tax every five years (the district’s auditors report March 6, 2015 page 10) is flawed. Compounded tax growth must eventually hit a limit. The taxable wealth of lower median households can, and may be, exhausted. Together, these two groups helped to make a supermajority. Prop A “no” voters did not lay a burden on the backs of students. This burden of staff, activity and pay cuts was placed there by a district decision, made several years ago,

to divert millions to the stadium project without first nailing down replacement funds. Thereby, a path was opened to a deficit budget which in turn necessitated staff, activity and pay cuts. This district decision is the root cause of the current taxpayer revolt. So the prospect for a revote is this: if the district continues to assert that there is no reason for financial reform, including a new business plan, then the April supermajority of voters will probably continue to vote “no.” Michael Cowan Kirkwood

I knocked on a lot of doors during the recent Kirkwood election and listened to what residents had to say. There was a tie for the No. 1 complaint: streets and the destruction of affordable housing. Thanks to Gerry Biedenstein, our war zone streets are finally being repaired a bit more quickly than previously planned.

New construction complaints were: 1) Rainwater runoff is swamping existing homes as affordable housing is replaced by castles that cover the entire lot. 2) New housing is unaffordable for many people. 3) Construction trucks are parking in yards, irritating the neighbors and further destroying our streets. During the recent inauguration, the outgoing mayor of Kirkwood demonstrated how out of touch he

was with ordinary citizens when he stated his excitement over all the new construction in Kirkwood. I hope our new mayor and elected officials have a better understanding of what the majority of Kirkwoodians want and will do something to prevent this out-of-control destruction of affordable housing.

State Cuts Contributing To Hunger Problem I am a home health social worker who has worked providing home health services in the St. Louis area for 36 years with the purpose of helping keep older adults in their own homes. Over and over again, I have been so impressed by families being willing to sacrifice so much for those they love. Most older adults do not go into nursing homes. In so many families, sons and daughters leave jobs and a home somewhere else to return home and care for their parents when the doctor tells them that their mom or dad cannot live home alone anymore. I wonder if our state legislators

realize that when they cut off the food stamp benefits to the “ablebodied unemployed” people in our state, they cut off food to thousands of caregivers who are actually doing the hardest job under the sun, providing 24-hour care to those they love. I have seen the delicate financial balance in these homes where son or daughter is helping Mom stay in her own home. They have no income because they are not working. Often they and their mother are both trying to survive on her very limited income. That income may be enough to cover normal household expenses. They were both counting on the caregiver’s

$200 worth of food stamps to pay for their food. Now their food stamps have been cut off, so both go hungry. I understand that our state legislators are going to do a huge expensive study over why we have hunger. So many of their cuts to the state benefits have contributed to this terrible problem of having more hunger per capita than any other state in the union. Hazel S. Kirk Kirkwood

Mary’s Song For Teachable Moment As the congregation of Mary Queen of Peace, along with the Webster Groves community, pursues the “teachable moment” identified by Rev. John Vien in light of the recent unfortunate event involving his congregation, I want to suggest an appropriate educational resource. I invite the congregation and community to read, or better yet sing, a song by Roman Catholic composer and liturgical leader Rory Cooney. The song is entitled “Canticle of the Turning,” and it is an eloquent, faithful and powerful paraphrase of the song that was sung by the original Queen of Peace (see “Mary’s Song, the Magnificat,” in Luke 1:46-55). If you cannot find the lyrics and music online or elsewhere, ask one of your Presbyterian friends. The “Canticle of the Turning” is hymn number 100 in the new hymnal of the Presbyterian Church (USA), “Glory to God.” Rev. Dr. Clint McCann Evangelical Professor of Biblical Interpretation Eden Theological Seminary

More Stop Signs Can Prevent Car Crashes To the Kirkwood City Council, to the police department, to anyone reading, please consider putting in more stop signs at every intersection around the area. It was May 11, my last day of senior year at Kirkwood High School. I received my cap and gown, went to lunch with my mom and relaxed until it was time for lacrosse practice; my team had our first round of districts on Saturday, May 14, also the day of my graduation. Driving to practice, taking the same route I always did for four years, I came to the intersection of Peeke and Simmons, where drivers on Peeke have the right-ofway while those on Simmons have a stop sign with a clear, yellow sign underneath that reads “cross traffic does not stop.” It took a split second of realization that the jeep was going to crash into me as I braced for impact. I didn’t hear or feel anything. As I regained consciousness out of pure shock, smoke filled my nose and a loud beeping filled my ears as the hot airbags deflated. As panic kicked in, I turned off my car, checked for injury, got out and cried hysterically. I blame the other driver for lack of attention; however, I blame the intersection for its lack of safety. Because of this accident, I could not play in my lacrosse game. Because of this accident, I had to sit through two banquets and graduation with extreme back pain. Because of this accident, I couldn’t participate in the senior prank. Because of this accident, my car is totaled. Because of this accident, you’re reading this right now. The constant switching of two- and four-way intersections is confusing and dangerous. I know I’m not the first accident to happen this way, but I hope you’ll consider preventing more. Thank you.

The Devil Sometimes Wears Payless As a public service, I today have advice you may find handy should you ever decide, heaven forbid, to commit a heinous crime. Here it is: think twice about what you wear on your feet. Honestly, one wrong step and, thanks to some Webster Groves High School students, you could find yourself behind bars. I’ll explain why. Since 2001, Jeanette Hencken’s advanced forensics classes at the high school have been taking twice-a-year field trips to the Walmart and Payless ShoeSource stores in Kirkwood for the sole purpose of photographing their shoe inventory. These photos, along with other key footwear data, are then stored in a database that law enforcement officials in 26 states – including members of the FBI – have used to help solve crimes. The student-run website was managed this past school year by graduating senior Claire Gilb. She took the job because, like all great detectives, including Sherlock Holmes and the entire cast of Scooby-Doo, she thought it sounded easier than chemistry class. Thanks to the diligence of Claire and other science-averse students like her, the database now contains information on approximately 10,000 pairs of shoes. I know what you’re wondering. You’re wondering what role Webster Groves High School played in the greatest footwear-related crime in history. I am referring, of course, to the pivotal scene in the O.J. Simpson double-murder trial when the prosecution presented bloody crime scene prints of size 12 Bruno Magli shoes. Also, you are wondering if there’s

anyone who believes those were NOT O.J.’s shoes. And, most importantly, you’re wondering who played Jeannette in the recent made-for-TV movie on the trial. Unfortunately, there are no good answers to these questions. 1. The Trial of the Century took place in 1995, six years before the Webster Groves High School shoe collection project officially began. 2. Besides, neither Walmart nor Payless carries luxury Italian footwear. 3. In case you’re curious: the forensics class wasn’t involved in the Cinderella slipper case, either. According to Jeanette, higher-end footwear like O.J.’s and Cinderella’s are all tracked on a for-profit database known as SoleMate, which frankly sounds more like a dating site for people with, you know, foot issues. She and her students, on the other foot, started their database to help law enforcement identify criminals who prefer more affordable footwear. She got the idea after taking an FBI footwear examination class and talking with the former head of the St. Louis City crime lab. The project has paid off. Jeanette reports that her students’ work has helped solve multiple crimes, including one involving a footprint left on a kickedin door that resembled a shoe in their database. The match was confirmed when the detective looked down and saw those very shoes on the feet of the murder-suspect being interviewed at the time. In conclusion, how many AP chemistry students can say that?

Glendale To Place 2 Tax Hike Props On Aug. 2 Ballot from page 1A Facebook page and website and send printed materials to residents, to let them know the project is being driven by public safety and the need to provide fire and emergency medical services for the long term,” he said. The facilities plan involves building a new fire station to the south of city hall and renovating the existing city hall building for use by the police and administrative departments at 424 N. Sappington Road. About 1,000 to 1,200 square feet would be added to the existing 120,000-square-foot city hall building. The building would be renovated to add more police space on the lower level and a sally port secure area. Also, city administrative offices would be moved into the 1915-vintage fire department area on the main level, and police administrative offices moved into the former city administrative space, all to allow for better public and handicapped access and greater efficiency.

Rendering of new Glendale Fire Station south of the current city hall. For the fire department, a 9,128-square-foot, onestory fire station would be built on the south end of the property. It would contain two bays, offices, kitchen, day room, sleeping areas, conference room/ emergency operations center/public gathering space, and police/fire department fitness center. The new fire station could accommodate a new fire pumper truck the city wants to acquire, at an estimated cost

of $650,000. If voters approve the measures, plans are for construction to start in 2017 and be complete by late summer of 2018. Former alderman Dan J. Sullivan of Hanamoor Court said he supported the ballot proposals. “I left the board in 2012 and, even then, we were dealing with ways to reinforce the floor in the firehouse because it was showing signs of stress,” he said. “We have first-class fire and police services, so we need to have first-rate fire and police facilities.” He praised the city for providing enough space in the plan so that the fire department would have the option of eventually adding its own ambulance rather than continuing the current practice of contracting with Abbott Ambulance. Bevie Straub of Edwin Avenue said the city “won’t just be putting patches on but will be doing everything the right way, to plan for the future and have space for equipment that will be necessary.”

Singer-Songwriter Sherdonna Denholm

Webster resident prepares for May 31 show at Sheldon Concert Hall by Jennifer Grotpeter

Webster resident Sherdonna Denholm describes her life as ordinary, filled with three busy boys, church activities, trips to the grocery store and other suburban routines. Her musical talent, however, is far from ordinary. Denholm began her musical career in the fifth grade, when her mother signed her up for band. She picked the clarinet and, unlike so many squeaky 10-year-old clarinetists, she stuck with it. She received a degree in music performance from Clayton State University in Morrow, Ga., on a full scholarship. While she was in college, a friend conferred a gift that shaped her future. “A friend of mine gave me a guitar, and said, ‘I feel like you need this to write music with.’ And that was the start of ‘I think I’m a songwriter,’” said Denholm. Sometimes the job descriptions of “mom” and “singer-songwriter” have little overlap, but Denholm makes it work by finding the music and the beauty in the chaos. “I write as I go, with the day as it goes – getting the kids to school, in the grocery store, soccer games – music is always in my head,” she said. “As I am driving, a lyric will come into my head, or a melody, or both together. I will pull over and find a scrap piece of paper and write it down before I forget it, and find some time when I can put it all together. One song on the new album was actually written on a piece of cardboard, very spontaneously.” Denholm put out her first CD, “Ordinary Realities,” in 2012, and has recently released her latest, “In The Morning.” “In The Morning” is a collection of 10 songs, written and performed by Denholm, with a voice that is clear and honest, unadorned by auto-tune or showy vocal runs, beautiful in its simplicity, unforgettable in its strength. She describes herself as a singer-songwriter with elements of folk and pop. Some tell her that she reminds them of Sarah McLachlan. “Sarah McLachlan has been a huge inspiration for me, and my foundation in classical music has been vital,” said Denholm. “I love the symphony and chamber music, and that has all influenced my work in some form or fashion.” Denholm moved to the St. Louis area when her husband was completing his M.A. of divinity at Covenant Seminary; the family moved to Webster a year and a month ago. She feels right at home in Webster Groves, and not just because she can smell Dewey’s Pizza cooking delicious bacon from her yard. “One of the things I liked about moving to Webster is the arts really thrive here, and I want music to be a part of my sons’ lives. Music enhances their experience,” she said. “I feel very at home here. I’m still new to the community, so a lot of it is meeting people, and everyone is supportive and excited, even as I am just hanging fliers in local shops. It’s neat to talk to people because there’s such a sense of camaraderie among musicians and the people here.”

Sherdonna Denholm has released her second album, “In The Morning.” She said she feels right at home in Webster Groves because of the city’s thriving arts community. photo by Ursula Ruhl Concert at The Sheldon Next up for Denholm is the renowned Sheldon Concert Hall in the Grand Center arts district. She will perform there May 31 as part of the Sheldon’s Notes from Home series highlighting local musicians. It will be her biggest show to date, and she will be walking out on a stage that, later in 2016, will see performances by Jane Lynch, Gordon Lightfoot and Mavis Staples. Those are some pretty big footlights to fill, but Denholm embraces the inevitable nervousness. “My natural tendency is to get nervous and withdraw, but I am determined to lean into the discomfort and move forward that way,” she said. “Knowing the other artists I work with, knowing they are some of the best around, and they want to play music with me, that’s kind of a good barometer that maybe I’m good, too. “It’s different when you perform someone else’s work,” she added. “When you perform something that you have written, there’s a level of personal exposure; you are letting people see a part of you that they don’t always see, a level of vulnerability, that can be scary.”

Cheering On The Blues At The Geyer Inn from page 1A wife, Jennifer, had a great-uncle who owned the bar in the 1960s, so the couple bought it in 2012 and renovated it. They reopened in summer 2013. “She likes it,” he said. “The kids, too.” Geyer Inn now has hockey memorabilia everywhere. The bar top is covered with hockey cards. Pictures pepper the wall and autographs from former Blues’ player Noel Picard and Campbell’s former teammate Wayne Gretzky can be seen. “It’s right in the neighborhood and we want families to come down and watch the Blues game,” Campbell said. “It’s easy. You can walk home. It has a family feeling and it’s great for hockey games.” The building filled fast with Blues fans on May 11, for Game Seven of the Second Round of Stanly Cup Playoffs against the Dallas Stars. Shortly after 4 p.m., when they open, people started coming in. The Geyer Inn only offers pizza for food, but customers can bring their own. “We have picnic tables out back and we had the game playing over the speakers outside,” Geyer Inn manager Jenn Bradley said. “It was fun because there was this automatic camaraderie between everybody there to see the Blues win. It was real fun.”

He still enjoys watching the hometown team play and he catches every game that he can. “They’re having great success,” Campbell said. “It’s making them fun

to watch. They move the puck great. They work hard. I think that they’re well coached.” These days, Campbell is not too far from the ice. He coaches his son’s hockey team. His daughter also played hockey, before taking up other sports. “It’s been a lot of fun getting back to the rink and being out there,” Campbell said. “I’m having fun with (my kids).”

Third-grade students at St. Gerard Majella Catholic School construct tiny models of rooms throughout the White House

by Jaime Mowers

t. Gerard Majella Catholic Elementary School students have taken learning about the White House into their own hands – literally. Third-grade students in Carol Fogerty’s social studies classes recently spent weeks building miniature models of various rooms in the White House. Using shoeboxes, cardboard, paper, containers and random objects of all sorts, students put their creativity to use to construct a room of their choice in

the White House, depicting it as it was during a certain year. Student Owen Duff built a model of what the Oval Office looked like in 1963, Cameron Burke constructed a replica of The Queen’s Bedroom circa 2008, and Nicolas Putman made the Game Room of 1985. Students also made models of the White House’s rose garden and swimming pool, Air Force One flying over Mount Rushmore and much more. Students must pay special attention to the details of the room – the style of furniture, the pictures on the wall, the

shape of the carpet and other specifics. If there wasn’t a TV in the Oval Office during the year they chose to depict it, they can’t put one in the room – it’s all about historical accuracy, Fogarty said. Before beginning the project, students read about and studied the White House and it’s various rooms. “It’s a fun project that gives them a sense of history and creativity all at the same time,” Fogarty said of the White House room project she’s been doing with St. Gerard Majella students for the past 18 years.

Library Receives Technology Grant The Kirkwood Public Library has received a technology grant in the amount of $13,448 to enhance the quality of technological services provided by the library. The library will use the funds to replace eight desktop computers and four early literacy stations. “This grant will help Kirkwood Public Library with its ongoing efforts to offer quality resources to patrons,” said Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander. “Improving technology and replacing outdated equipment allows our libraries to better serve local communities and Missouri as a whole.” The secretary of state’s literacy and educational enrichment grants are funded by the Library Services and Technology Act through the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services, which is the primary source of federal support for the nation’s 122,000 libraries and 17,500 museums.

In math, all three grades scored 70 percent or higher – 75.8 percent (third graders), 70.2 percent (fourth graders) and 82.5 percent (fifth graders). In science, the fifthgrade students scored 68.4 percent.

Edgar Road enrolls 389 students – 79 percent white; eight percent African American; six percent multi-racial; four percent Hispanic; two percent Asian; and one percent Pacific Islander. There are four achievement levels for each test: below basic, basic, proficient and advanced. Missouri’s objective is to help students test in the top two categories. In English language arts, the percentage of third through fifth graders who scored in the proficient or advanced categories are all over 78 percent – 89.4

Julie Wuch, principal of Edgar Road Elementary School, is proud of her students’ Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) test results. As part of the Webster Groves School District’s school reporting process, it was her school’s turn at the microphone during the May 9 Webster Groves Board of Education meeting. The MAP test is a series of assessments for English language arts, math and science for third through eighth grades and English language arts, math, science and social studies in high school.

and implement a systemic, intentional plan to ensure diverse literature, instructional resources and learning resources are available and accessible in all classrooms. It also calls for putting together a diverse group to study disciplinary data and practices, with a particular emphasis on understanding and addressing the disproportionate gap between black and white students. “There was one suspension (involving a white student) for every 51 white students in the district, but that ratio jumps to one incident for every five black students,” Painter said. “That number is alarming, and it should leave all of us with a pit in our stomachs. We have to change it.” Board President Darnel Frost, who also serves as a co-chair on the task force, stressed the urgency of implementing these plans. “Our kids cannot wait – we have to do this now,” Frost said. “We don’t have a quick fix, but we do have a plan in place. We are on a journey, and this plan is a map to help guide us on our journey in eliminating the achievement gap.”

Randy Jotte Announces Campaign For State Senate Dr. Randy Jotte, R-Webster Groves, kicked off his campaign for state Senate in Missouri’s 1st Senate District on Wednesday, May 18. The state Senate district is currently represented by Sen. Scott Sifton, D-Affton, who will be unopposed in the Aug. 2 Democratic primary for re-election. With the filing deadline closed, Jotte is unopposed in the Republican primary. “As a native St. Louisan, I know there is no better place to raise my family than right here in the 1st Senatorial District,” Jotte said. “As a father, active member of the community, doctor and medical professor, I not only have a unique understanding of the challenges facing the families of the 1st District but also possess the skill set necessary to solve them.” Jotte works as an emergency room physician at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and serves as an associate professor in the Division of Emergency Medicine at the Washington University School of Medicine. “Our community does not need another career politician serving them in Jefferson City. They need someone who has real world experience and who has spent his entire career solving problems,” Jotte said. Jotte resides in Webster Groves with his wife, Susan, and their two sons. He served on the Webster

true but the deadly part, not so much. Tarantulas are peaceful creatures. If provoked they may bite, but it will hurt no more than a bee sting. The spider’s bite can kill an insect instantly, but would take 3 days to kill a small bird or lizard. Humans are just too big. So, where did this “deadly” myth start? Read on.

Mexican Red Knee Tarantula

The unfair reputation of the “terrible tarantula” started in

the Italian city of Taranto. During the Middle Ages, a bite from the large wolf spider was thought to cause madness. It was believed, that to prevent melancholy, the victim should do a wild dance called “tarantella”. Another story reports that around 1300, dancing was forbidden in parts of Italy. If someone was caught “cutting a rug” they would claim they had been bitten by a spider and were just trying to sweat out the poisonous venom. When Italian immigrants came to America and saw a similar large hairy spider they began to call it tarantula after the Italian city and dance.

The Mexican red knee tarantula is a popular pet. So popular, its numbers in the wild are beginning to dwindle.

Number of people killed by tarantulas 0 Number of legs 8 Life span, in years, for a female 25 Number of eyes 8 Number of eggs laid 100-1000 Weight in ounces of Goliath tarantula 4 Size in inches, of Goliath tarantula 10 Milligrams of venom in a tarantula bite 1.5 Milligrams needed to kill a human 12 Number of species of tarantulas 700 Tarantula species found in Texas 14

Affton School District

District Angles For Voter Approval Of Future Tax Hike, Bond Issue by Joe Leicht

A crowd of about 100 gathered May 12 at Rogers Middle School to learn about why their district is among the best regarded in Missouri, and what they need to do to keep it that way. At what was called a community engagement session, district residents saw a 90-minute PowerPoint presentation focused on the Affton District’s accomplishments and its successful, ongoing building campaign, tempered by concerns over its financial outlook. One highlight was a list of districtwide capital improvements the board of education approved in 2014, $24 million-worth funded by existing district bond proceeds that has been partially completed. Then participants were asked to place adhesive dots besides the remaining projects to indicate their priority rank. District-wide classroom renovations and additional Gotsch Intermediate School renovations came out on top. About $2 million is on hand for the projects, meaning without new revenues, only one or two could be completed. Assistant Superintendent Travis Bracht said the district is planning building enhancements “to create a physical environment that promotes 21st century learning.” The approach is to reach beyond standardized testing, though testing is still vital to the district’s state ranking.

Affton is currently within the 95th percentile in student performance. But Affton, which as a district derives a disproportionate percentage of its annual budget of around $30 million from local property and sales taxes, is facing a funding trainwreck that could hit by 2019, as assessed values dip and revenues drop accordingly. Over the past three years, the district has had to cut nearly $2 million from its budget through staff attrition. Programs, staffing and performance have yet to be diminished. District Business Manager Steve Fedchak said by 2019, if no new sources of revenues have been identified, “there will be additional cuts. There’s no way around it. That will mean fewer teachers, higher class sizes and the elimination of some non-core programs.” Superintendent Steve Brotherton said his proposing a 41 cent per $100 of assessed value tax hike would be contained in two ballot issues. One would raise the district levy while the other would fund a $25 million bond issue. A citizens advisory council, led by parents/taxpayers Jeff Brown and Michelle Burford, is forming to study the referendum question. After the meeting, district parents and grandparents seemed to appreciate what they’d heard and see, and appeared open to the possibility of shouldering a bigger tax burden.

Webster wins district title with 2-1 victory over Ursuline

Webster Groves High School’s #13 Emma Lieb runs the ball down the field in the game against Ursuline Academy on May 17. Webster won 2-1, clinching the district title.

Webster Groves High School Stateswomen Soccer Coach Chris Allen was speechless, and goaltender Megan McClure didn’t even realize her team had won its second straight Class 3 District title – the second in school history. Webster Groves High School prevailed 2-1 on penalty kicks despite being outplayed by Ursuline Academy in the 80-minute regulation and two 15-minute overtime periods in the Class 3 District 3 Championship on May 17 at Windsor High School in Imperial. “I really am kind of at a loss for words,” Allen said. Webster Groves (22-3-2) outscored Ursuline by a 4-3 margin during penalty kicks. “We were fortunate to win it,” Allen said. “The resiliency of this group is unreal to me.” Webster goalie McClure didn’t realize the team clinched the win until her teammates started running toward her. “I didn’t even know if we won, but when they ran onto the field I knew what had just happened,” she said. Allen gives a lot of credit to McClure, who made 12 saves through the game and

But throughout the second half and the two overtime periods, Ursuline dominated the play.

Webster Groves High School’s Cinderella season continues on May 24 in the sectionals against the District 4 champion. Visitation was to face Westminster on May 19 at Parkway Central for the District 4 championship. The time and place have yet to be determined.

Movie & DVD Reviews by Kent Tentschert & Lynn Venhaus

The Angry Bird Movie Kent’s Grade: C+

Genre: Animated/Comedy/Family Rated: PG for rude humor and action.

THE PLOT: Red Bird (Jason Sudeikas) is a local pariah for he doesn’t suffer fools. His acerbic attitude sours the normally happy community, forcing them to make him move to a solitary beach. When a boat of green pigs arrives, Red’s skepticism is frowned upon as the rest of the bird community welcomes them with open arms. But when the overzealous pigs take over, it’s up to Red, Bomb (Danny McBride) and Chuck (Josh Gad) to save their community. KENT’S TAKE: “The Angry Birds Movie” is based upon the popular mobile device video game – I know what you’re thinking. If you are a fan of the game, you are willing to check this out. If you aren’t one of the millions upon millions of

A Bigger Splash Lynn’s Grade: C-

Genre: Drama Rated: R for graphic nudity, some strong sexual content, language and brief drug use.

THE PLOT: Rock star Marianne Lane (Tilda Swinton) and her beau Paul (Matthias Schoenaerts) are relaxing on a Mediterranean island when ex-lover Harry (Ralph Fiennes) arrives with his daughter Penny (Dakota Johnson). Harry stirs things up at the idyllic villa as sexual tension simmers and emotions run high. Is trouble in paradise ahead?

The Nice Guys Kent’s Grade: C-

Genre: Action/Comedy/Mystery Rated: R for violence, sexuality, nudity, language and brief drug use.

THE PLOT: In the summer of 1977, private investigator Holland March (Ryan Gosling) is hired to investigate the death of porn star Misty Mountains, when he stumbles across the disappearance of Amelia (Margaret Qualley), a person of interest in the case. At the same time, muscle for hire Jackson Healey (Russell Crowe) is paid to “coerce” March to stop looking for Amelia. When March and Healey exchange information in the case, they discover that there is more to this than meets the eye – much more! KENT’S TAKE: “The Nice Guys” is a comedy/mystery that makes as much sense as wearing a

people who have enjoyed shooting Red, Bomb and Chuck at various stacks of breakable items – you probably could care less about this animated feature. Regardless of your thoughts on the game, this feature exceeded my low expectations. Starting slowly, this story had to fight to gain momentum because of an unlikable hero. As the plot begins to develop with the arrival of the swine swindlers, Red quickly grows on you. The action and laughs increase eventually, demonstrating how personalities come in all attitudes. Sudeikis, McBride and Gad also hit their stride in the second half of the film, with this skilled cast enhancing the stronger writing. “The Angry Birds Movie” will entertain fans of the game, adding an adventure explaining why these birds are so angry. However, keep in mind, a feature film based upon a simple video game may ruffle some feathers. This film should not top your pecking order of first run films.

LYNN’S TAKE: Interminable and insufferable, this uninvolving drama tests one’s patience. Director Luca Guadagnino needed more substance and suspense than just beautiful jet setters and breathtaking views. Showing his range, standout Fiennes is fiery as the annoying coked-up rock producer re-living his glory days and hanging loose. He even tries to move like Jagger. Oscar winner Swinton, statuesque as the singer convalescing from throat surgery, is most strong non-verbally. Handsome Belgian Schoenaerts hints at more undercurrents than are revealed. The misfit is Dakota Johnson (“Fifty Shades of Grey”), playing another sultry temptress, but she’s a bland actress, and not believable as a Lolita. polyester leisure suit near an open flame. March pushes the envelope between P.I. and con man and is skilled at gathering information, but not at doing much with that information. Healey is a bull in a China shop, punching, kicking, shooting and sometimes killing his way across the greater L.A. area. Together they make a quirky but effective team. Written by Shane Black and Anthony Bagarozzi, this uneven, disjointed film is paced too slowly and gathers momentum too late in the film. The clunky dialogue doesn’t do the characters any favors, as audiences attempt to find a reason to root for these anti-heroes. This film never quite settles on its genre. Is this a cop drama? Somewhat. A comedy? Not really. A mystery? Yes, but not a truly compelling one. Gosling and Crowe work hard to salvage their roles and eventually do so, but it isn’t quite enough. “The Nice Guys” is anything but nice, both in the film and to viewers as these two misfits stumble their way to an unsatisfying finish.

To Florida Kirkwood residents Allison Walter, Danielle Walter, Randy Walter and Kellie Walter enjoyed the sunset while visiting Sea Oats Resort on Captiva Island, Fla., in July 2015 with the Webster-Kirkwood Times.

To Costa Rica Madelyn Harris and Peter Wilson of Sunset Hills traveled to Costa Rica with the WebsterKirkwood Times.

To Italy Ann McReynolds and Max Nall of Webster Groves spent 10 days in November 2015 visiting Italy, including one chilly, soggy afternoon in Rome at the Colosseum.

To Hawaii Torch and Bea Tebb of Webster Groves had fun in the sun at Kauai, Hawaii.

To Vietnam Kirkwood resident Victor Frome (Major, U.S. Army retired), took his son Christopher, also of Kirkwood, to Vietnam to show him where he fought the war in 1967/68. They are pictured in front of the 68-story Bitexco Tower in Saigon now called Ho Chi Minh City.

NEW CONSTRUCTION ~ $399,900

Featured Home

The House of Seven Gables 503 East Monroe Avenue ~ Kirkwood

Take advantage of this unique opportunity to buy a brand new home with tons of upgrades, in the Webster school district. Yes, $399,900 is the finished price for this 2900 sq.ft. home! You’ll love the open floorplan of the main level with 9 ft. ceilings, hardwood floors, crown molding and a large kitchen/family room with fireplace. The kitchen features upgraded shaker-style cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, large pantry and breakfast bar. In the master suite you’ll find a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet and private bath with dual vanity and custom shower. The laundry is conveniently located on the 2nd floor. The walk-out lower level is “adult” finished and offers a great opportunity for additional entertaining space. This high efficiency, new construction home will be completed in mid-June, 1208 McKinley. If these walls could talk, what would they say? After 103 years, the walls of 503 East Monroe would have a plethora of stories to tell. This Kirkwood and National Landmark was a stop on the Underground Railroad, took part in bootlegging alcohol during prohibition, and was an important gathering place for city leaders who shaped the Kirkwood community. This iconic home recognized for its beautiful Victorian architectural style as well as rich heritage, has remained a part of only four families during its time; including one of the most influential men in the state of Missouri and in Kirkwood. The story of this fine property known by all as “The House of the Seven Gables” begins with Judge Enos Clarke. He was the first federal judge of Missouri, the first counselor of Kirkwood, and one of Missouri’s most influential abolitionists. He played a prominent role in leading and shaping the Kirkwood community as its first city councilman and as a member of the Kirkwood School Board. His daughter founded the Rowena Clare Garden Club in 1919, inspired by the beautiful gardens surrounding their home, originally designed by Henry Shaw, founder of The Missouri Botanical Gardens. Not only did Judge Clarke have a significant role in shaping one of St. Louis’ most beloved communities, but was also instrumental in building one of the most prominent houses in Kirkwood. In 1913, Judge Clarke commissioned the construction of “The House of the Seven Gables” after his original home on this site, built in 1867 known as “The Woodlawn”, prompting the street name Woodlawn Avenue, was partially burned and torn down. Having only four family owners in its history, “The House of the Seven Gables” is in pristine condition and is a complex, well-rendered example of a Tudor Revival with architectural features taken from Medieval English style. The three-story residence sits on a large wooded corner lot, originally encompassing an entire city block and was known for its gardens. The house features a very irregular design for its era, with quaint window bays, an expansive flowing front hall, and a two story round tower enabling this home to be considered one of the most elaborate Tudor Revival houses to have been built in Kirkwood. The Ross family has owned the house for the past 34 years. Over those years the home received major improvements such as changing the driveway and adding a three-car garage in the 1970s, enclosing the front porch in 1988, and restoring the original hardwood floors in 2014. Still having its masterful presence and impressive style while having been lovingly restored for today’s comfort and lifestyle, “The House of the Seven Gables” is now looking for new owners to care for it and take part in a fifth family’s life. Offering an abundance of natural light, spacious rooms, beautiful pocket doors, original leaded glass windows, an expansive open floor plan, warm hardwood floors, and original chandeliers and fireplaces. 503 East Monroe is truly a Kirkwood masterpiece and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
