ive years, 11 months and 24 days. Around 3,146,400 minutes will have elapsed between kickoff of the Fredericksburg High School varsity football team’s bi-district showdown against Somerset Friday night and kickoff of the Billies’ last playoff appearance against Cibolo Steele in 2007. With six years of waiting soon behind them, Fredericksburg players have little time to celebrate their 9-1 regular season and undefeated District 27-3A championship before wiping the slate clean for post-season play. Yet for those Billies who struggled through a 2-8 campaign in 2011 and battled their way to a 5-5 mark in 2012, making the playoffs validates three years’ worth of effort. “It justifies that all the blood, sweat and tears that we as coaches and players have put into this program has finally paid off,” senior defensive back and wide receiver Matthew McManigle said.

Gillespie 4-Hers take honors in Food Challenge Thirty-nine youth competed in the Gillespie County 4-H Food Challenge on Nov. 6 at the Gillespie County Extension Office. The 4-Hers competed in three age divisions — junior, intermediate and senior, and the top two teams in each age category will advance to the District Food Challenge contest in San Marcos at Texas State University on Dec. 7. Awards for first place were donated by The UPS Store. Following are the results:
Participant: Bake ’N Lovers — Katerine Balero, Haley Davee, Jada Deike, Haley Merz and Shelby Pitts. Participant: Texas Tailgaters — Brittley Bowers, Taylor Erwin, Karlie Nebgen, Emilia Smajstrla and Jaci Spies. Senior Division Fruits and Vegetables 1. Fritztown Foodies — Amy Heimann, Kagen Mazurek, Sean O’Leary, Dylan Sione and Sara Verstuyft. This marked the fifth year for this competition. The 4-H Food Chal lenge was developed by county Extension agents to address the need for a new, “highly charged” foods experience, explained Gillespie County Extension Agent Shea Nebgen. The contest, Nebgen said, is modeled after such competitions as the Food Network’s “Iron Chef,” and is designed to challenge teams of 4-H members to create a dish using only a pre determined number of ingredients. From these ingredients, team members must identify and prepare the dish, then make a presentation about it
Junior Division Fruit and Vegetables 1. Shamrock Chefs — Carson Barnes, Zoe Maurer, Daniel Raab, Lexi Sione and Arianna Watson. 2. Fun Loving Cooks — Caiden Davis, Harley Merz, Clara Stehling and Rose Vetti. Intermediate Division Fruits and Vegetables 1. Fantastic Five — Evan Barnes, Suzanne Coale, Daylon Nebgen, Anna O’Leary and Harrison Spisak. 2. Miss Kay’s Cookers and Si — Emery Boettcher, Connor Davis, Morgyn Granville, Rain Skelton and Kate Wenzel.
FINISHING FIRST at the county show and qualifying for the District Food Show Challenge on Dec. 7 at Texas State University were these Gillespie County 4-Hers, including junior winners in front from left, Arianna Watson, Carson Barnes, Alexandria Sione, Zoe Maurer, Daniel Rabb and (in back) intermediate winners Evan Barnes, Suzanne Coale, Anna O’Leary, Daylon Nebgen and Harrison Spisak and senior winners Sean O’Leary, Dylan Sione, Kagen Mazurek and Sara Verstuyft.

The presentation includes information about the serving size, nutritional value and the cost of the dish, Nebgen ex-
plained. She added, the 4-H Food Challenge allows 4-H members to demonstrate their culinary and food safety skills to
judges and observers. Coaches for the teams were Rachel Howell, Megan Skelton, Cheryl Sione, Andrea Merz, Audri Bowers, Denis
O’Leary, Lindsey Davee and Linda Heimann. Judges were Rachel Hood, Judy Leddy and Donna Oehler.
City announces curbside fall, winter leaf pickup schedule The annual fall-winter leaf collection program by the City of Fredericksburg is scheduled to begin on Monday, Nov. 18 and will end on Friday, Jan. 31. During this program, residents are encouraged to gather leaves from their property and rake them to the street, according to Lea Feuge, city engineering technician. Residents are reminded of the following guidelines which will ensure pick up: •Rake leaves onto the street,
12 inches from the curb. •Do not rake limbs, twigs, wire, rocks, bricks or other debris along with the leaves for collection. Any items other than leaves that are picked up will damage the leaf collection equipment and will not be picked up for that reason. If it is not possible to remove debris from a leaf pile, residents are asked to call the City of Fredericksburg Street Department to make arrange-
ments for a special pick up using a loader and dump truck. There will be a minimum $100 charge for this service. •Avoid parking vehicles near leaf piles. The collection equipment cannot maneuver around vehicles and will not be able to pick up leaves. •Remember that leaves mixed with limbs, grass clippings, and other debris will not be picked up. •Grass clippings will not be picked up.
Feuge reminded residents will be assessed based on serthat the city’s leaf program is vice provided: not a year-round service. •Loader and dump truck “Do not put leaves out after service: minimum $100 fee. Jan. 31,” she said. “There will •Leaf collection machine: be no free leaf pick up after that date until the 2014 spring leaf pick up program begins, tentatively scheduled for midMarch. Feuge said residents who put out leaves after Jan. 31 will be notified to properly dispose of their leaves. If leaves are not disposed of, the following fees
Minimum $60 fee. Questions about the leaf pickup program should be directed to the Street Department at 997-7521.

WHEN THEY WERE
GIANTS (‘Baby Giants,’ that is.)
Teammates, now near 80, reminisce about youth team By Ken Esten Cooke The joking starts immediately and roughly 70 years melt away. Six members of Fredericksburg’s Baby Giants youth baseball team, now at or nearing age 80, got together to reminisce recently with their baseball teammates from 1946. Laughter ensued. “Damn, I was ugly,” said George Gold looking at a team photo dating from the mid1940s. “You still are,” joked Randall McBride. The idea for a reunion came from Fredericksburg resident Edgar Schneider, who found a photo of the Baby Giants and contacted those still around about a reunion. “We played different teams in Fredericksburg and were undefeated,” Schneider said. “We played on the Market Square baseball field. Eventually, we traveled to area towns to play other teams.” “I think we got those T-shirts from Seipp’s Hall,” remembered Henry Frantzen. “Yeah, we played the women’s softball team, and the winning streak ended,” Gold said. “Our daddies had told us we’d get barbecue if we won. But we lost, so we ate chili at a cafe.” The six shared memories and jokes, not all of which were publishable, yet all were funny. After the boys played a year of softball, from when the photo was taken, they switched to baseball. The team fielded 11- and 12-year-olds. In those days, the Fredericksburg Giants, a Hill Country League team, played baseball at the Gillespie County Fair Grounds, so the kids took
their name from Fredericksburg’s top team, finding a seat at Jimmy Pyka Field inside the race track to watch their heroes. Several went on to play for the Giants, and even nearing age 80, most could remember the top players and their positions. Kenneth Kordzik remembered when the boys’ “district” teams included Lampasas and Cuero. “It was a big deal when we had to travel to play,” he said, remembering decidedly non-posh traveling arrangements. “They hauled us in a horse trailer to go play Blanco. No kidding.” The gents remembered Sunnyside Tavern, where beer cost 25 cents and the teen boys were known to sneak one, as well as Paul’s Chicken and Chips, where a hamburger, curly fries and a Coke cost one quarter. Even the photo stirred memories. The baseball field was located where the Adelsverein Halle now stands. Visible in the background, across Austin Street, is the Loitz Mill and Feed store that stood before Bethany Lutheran Church was built. Where City Hall and the fire station stand was a service station. They remembered Becker Blacksmith Shop and lamented the tear-down of Peter’s Dance Hall. Vernon Brodbeck recalled the top talent they faced. “The best game I remember was when we played a colored team out of Kerrville,” he said. “They had some good players.” All said those days of no air conditioning and constant outdoor activity were simpler. “It was a slower time,” Frantzen said. “You knew everybody
THIS TEAM PHOTO of the Baby Giants, thought to be taken around 1946, included team members, front, from left, Kenneth Jordan (now deceased), George Gold, Frederick Pyka (deceased), Edgar Schneider Jr., Henry Frantzen, Henry Beck-
er Jr. (deceased); middle, bat boy Fred Meurer; back row, Vernon Brodbeck, Randall McBride, Larry Meurer (deceased), Louis Schneider (deceased), Henry Becker Sr. (deceased), Alex Frantzen, Kenneth Kordzik.

in town, so you never could get in too much trouble.” “I think it was a better time,” McBride added about temptations today’s youth face. “If we had even heard about drugs, it
was in New York or Philadelphia or some place like that. But no one ever approached me about drugs. It was a different way of life.” Those were the days when
Main Street boasted seven grocery stores. Dooley’s 5 & 10-cent Store is about the only constant nearly 70 years hence, they said. About the most trouble
came from bars late at night. But Gold remembers the kids’ own off-the-field mischief, stealing watermelons from a local farmer. “He saw us do it and fired his gun up in the air,” Gold said. “Of course, we thought he was shooting right at us. We never did that again.” As a team that might have two bats between them, they marveled at today’s outfitted teams and summer youth traveling teams whose equipment is as good as the pros. The Baby Giants wore their Tshirts and jeans. “Even in high school, we had to buy our own bats,” Gold said. “I felt like it was a really good place to grow up,” Brodbeck said. “I’ve thought about them over the years,” Gold said. “We played together a lot when we were kids, and I missed the guys.” Lest sentimentality creep up, he added, “But I don’t know why.”
Free workshop to focus on headaches Hill Country Natural Healthcare (HCNH) will host a free public education workshop on “Headaches and Migraines” tomorrow, Thursday, Nov. 14. The workshop will take place from 7-8 p.m. at the HCNH office located at 103 Industrial Loop, Suite 800. Seating is limited, and an RSVP is required. To reserve a seat, call 9923068. Traditional Naturopath, Dr. Larry Blanchard, will discuss seven possible causes of headaches and migraines, four quick potential remedies for headaches and migraines and more. Blanchard said, “Many suffer needlessly with reoccurring headache or migraine pain
and the only solution for the majority is more pain medication. But if the underlying cause or reason can be discovered, there may be real help
naturally.” For more information, visit HCHN’s website: www.hillcountrynaturalhealthcare. com.

Eisbahn skating to return to square during holidays Fans of outdoor ice skating will get their chance to slip around the icy oval again this holiday season since “Eisbahn” will make its return to Marktplatz. The rink will open the day after Thanksgiving, on Friday, Nov. 29, and continue to run daily through Saturday, Jan. 4, 2014. A come-and-go pass will be $10 and will include the rental of ice skates. Eisbahn’s setup will transform the Kinderhalle Pavilion into a winter wonderland, where ice skaters can zip around to music while benefitting a local school, a local charity and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The rink began in 2005 as a fundraiser for Cystic Fibrosis, thanks to the Fredericksburg Lifeline Foundation. After three successful years, in 2008, the foundation found it necessary to find a new entity to manage the rink and run Eisbahn. With the backing of more than 150 volunteers, including parents, grandparents and students, Heritage School stepped in to save the Eisbahn tradition for the community. Since its inception, Eisbahn
has grown in popularity each year — from 4,300 skaters in 2008 to a record 8,000 skaters in 2012. This year, organizers are expecting to play host to an estimated 8,700 skaters during the festive season. Those who enjoy the rink will be helping contribute proceeds that will be shared by the hosting Heritage School with its two designated corecipients this year — the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the Boys and Girls Club of the Texas Hill Country in Fredericksburg. Local business are being sought as corporate sponsors for the rink. Anyone who would like to be a part of the ice skating fun either as a sponsor or as a volunteer is asked to phone Heritage School at 997-6597. Heritage School is a private, non-denominational classicalChristian school offering services to kindergarten through 12th grade students. Information on this year’s Eisbahn event is available at www.skateinfred.com. More information is also available by contacting Russ Hearn at 830-456-2052 or russlhearn@gmail.com.

HARPER BUCK — On a recent excursion on the Kroll Ranch near Harper, Brooke Grona, 16, of Pflugerville, harvested this 10-point white-tailed buck. She was hunting during the “youth-only weekend” on Saturday, Oct. 26, with her father, Terry Grona, and grandmother, Martha Grona, and made the estimated 185-yard shot with her father’s 30.06 to bring down the buck around 7:30 a.m. The Whitetail field dressed out to 110 pounds and its 10-point antlers measured 16.5 inches wide to score a 142.

Chamber mixer slated at Inn on Barons Creek
L
Fredericksburg Chamber of Commerce will host its final Fun After 5 mixer for the year, from 5-7 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 14 at the Inn on Barons Creek Spa and Conference Center. The hotel, spa and conference center will be open for tours, with the mixer being held in the hotel’s breakfast room and back patio. Co-sponsors include Ameriprise Financial – Donowho & Associates, Artistic Impressions Taxidermy, Chassis By Zach, Cranky Frank’s Barbecue Co., Frost Bank, HillsHomePage, Hominick Custom Builders, Keg 1 O’Neal, Pedernales Brewing Company, Six Shooter Cellars and Texas Wine Tours. All guests are invited to participate as judges in the third annual chili cook-off between Chassis By Zach’s owner Zach Pooser and Texas Wine Tours’ owner Jim Thompson. This year, the Poosers and
ast Sunday I had the opportunity to hear Pastor Rick Hartmann of Zion Lutheran Church preach about the sacred gift of time and the importance and responsibility of managing it well. So often we hear people say, “I don’t have time for that.” I used to say it pretty often myself, but have tried hard to purge it from my conversations following a comment made to me a number of years ago. The reason? Someone called my hand on it. I was feeling a bit overwhelmed and made the exasperated comment that I could not possibly do something that was expected because I didn’t have the time. With a caring, but rather serious, expression, the person to whom I had made the comment said, “You do have the time. You are choosing not to make the time. There is a difference.” This person’s reply was made without judgment or guilt, simply a statement. As I reflected for a few minutes, I realized the statement was true. If I was honest about things, I simply did not want to do what had been asked and was hiding behind the “I’m too busy” excuse. Life is really about setting priorities and making the time to do what we believe to be important, that which provides meaning and value in our life and the organizations we serve. The timeliness (pun intended) of Pastor Rick’s observations occurring on the same week that Hill Country Memorial would be chosen to receive Best Practices recognition in Leadership System as part of the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award program was not lost on me. I have to believe their incredible accomplishment had everything to do with setting priorities and then making the time to do them with remarkable quality. On behalf of the Chamber’s 800 members, we congratulate HCM on such an outstanding accomplishment and stand proud to have them as such an integral part of the community.
BOOT RANCH Director of Club Operations Todd Huizinga (left) and Director of Golf Emil Hale (right) recently presented a donation of $4,800 to the Fredericksburg Boys and Girls Club, represented by Assistant Branch Director Kathy Novian. Funds were generated through a collaborative effort from the Southern Texas Professional Golfers Asso-
ciation of America and golf facilities across South Texas. PGA club professionals at these facilities participated in a “100 Holes in One Day” marathon for the benefit of local charities. Boot Ranch PGA professionals raised donations all summer leading up to marathon day and selected the Boys and Girls Club as their charity to receive these funds.

ity, Beckmann said. Row offers effective marketing options for small- and medium-sized businesses, as a means to further their growth.

The organization offers students the opportunity to develop leadership, teamwork and communication skills

Valuing Cont. from A6
To value and use our time to its greatest potential, Pastor Hartmann outlined three questions we should ask of ourselves. First, what should we do with our time? If spending time wisely means fully aligning it with our priorities, we must ask ourselves some deep and probing questions about what truly matters to us. I believe HCM has taken an incredible approach to asking and answering these questions as an institution and the development of their values-driven approach to organizational management and providing quality healthcare is undoubtedly a leading reason they received this most recent accolade. Pastor Hartmann also shared that we have an obligation to ask daily what we could be doing differently with our time. Even if we are consistent with spending our time on the things that matter, being open to seeing opportunities is the only path to growth. THE FINAL TOUCHES are still being applied, owner and operator Sloan Ruth.

HCM joins National Surgical Quality Improvement Program Hill Country Memorial (HCM) has joined the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP). NSQIP is the first nationally validated, outcomes-based program used to measure and improve surgical care quality. “The NSQIP program provides a platform for hospitals and surgeons to come together to identify opportunities for improvement throughout the patient’s continuum of care,” said HCM Chief Strategy Officer Debbye Dooley. “This collaborative approach will benefit the patients of today and tomorrow as we continue to embrace and implement world class, evidenced-based processes of care.” The program measures surgical outcomes by following patients for 30 days after a surgical procedure, tracking potential complications that might be related to that procedure. Hill Country Memorial has dedicat-
ed a nurse who has undergone the necessary training to accurately track these outcomes. “This will give us accurate measures of our outcomes,” said Gregory D. Andreassian, M.D. “We will be comparing our team against the very best hospital teams across the nation.” Since the program was launched in 2001, participating hospitals have achieved significant improvements in surgical quality and cost savings. “NSQIP is an elective program,” said Jodie Wanner, Director of Case Management. “Our participation is based on the hospital’s commitment to always strive to deliver remarkable care.” The American College of Surgeons was founded in 1913 to raise the standards of surgical practice and to improve the care of the surgical patient.

On Monday, Nov. 4, at 12:18 p.m., an officer was sent to the 400 block of Summit Circle in reference to a person claiming the loss of their wallet on a visit to HEB. Prior to the officer’s arrival on scene, however, the wallet was located. On Thursday, Nov. 7, the HEB Gas Station, 407 South Adams Street, reported that a customer had filled $3.73 in gas and then drove away without paying. On Friday, Nov. 8, at 5:16 p.m., an officer was called to Walmart, 1435 East Main Street, for a report of a stolen wallet. On Saturday, Nov. 9, at 11:11 a.m., police were called to the 300 block of South Washington Street to record
Fredericksburg Police Department officers responded to 134 calls for service from Nov. 4-10, including an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, 11 automobile accidents, one burglary of a residence, five thefts and four arrests. Aggravated Assault A man was arrested and charged with an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon on Monday, Nov. 4, at the U.S. Post Office in Fredericksburg. According to police reports, Hugh Fuller III, 64, drove into the post office parking lot at 1150 North U.S. Highway 87, where he observed a vehicle in a designated handicapped parking space, but did not see handicap plates on the vehicle. Fuller, who is wheelchairbound, went to the vehicle and began a verbal disturbance with the driver of that vehicle, said FPD Chief of Police Steve Wetz. “During the disturbance, he pulled a .380 caliber pistol from a fanny pack, racked the slide loading a round, and pointed at the victim,” Wetz said. The victim and two witnesses advised they were threatened by his actions, Wetz said. Fuller was taken into custody and jailed on “Aggravated Assault With Deadly Weapon” — a second degree
a case of lost/stolen jewelry. And, on Sunday, Nov. 10, at 11:47 a.m., an officer was called to Opa’s Smoked Meats, 410 South Washington Street, in reference to a suspect stealing pallets from behind the business. Special Services FPD’s special services division investigated three reports of welfare concern, three agency assists, one report each of neglectful supervision, medical neglect, physical abuse and assault. Arrests FPD officers arrested four individuals during the past week for the following charges: • 1 Aggravated Assault Family Violence with Weapon; • 1 Aggravated Assault With Deadly Weapon; • 1 Assault Family Violence, and; • 1 Local Warrant.

Leads sought locally in two recent burglary cases Police officers are turning to the community for help in solving two separate burglaries that happened here over the past couple of months. The first was reported Sunday, Sept. 22, at 9:29 a.m. at Raab Plumbing, 109 East Park Street, where someone forced entry into the business’ building and stole an assortment of tools valued at an estimated $3,000 or more. The theft is thought to have occurred sometime after 3 p.m. the previous afternoon and the call for police help the following morning. The second burglary officers are seeking help on was reported on Friday, Oct. 11, at around 9:43 a.m. That’s when Fredericksburg Police Department (FPD) officers were called out to Catfish Haven Restaurant, 816 West Main Street.

FISD projects Cont. from A1
Board president Lorrie Hess added that the current estimates were merely to give the board an idea of plans and rough financial estimates. They will solicit formal bids for each project. FISD Superintendent Marc Williamson described FMS’ current HVAC program as one that needs to be replaced. “The unit is living on borrowed time,” Williamson said. “It’s not a matter of ‘if ’, but a matter of ‘when’.” The superintendent added that they would like an HVAC system similar to the one installed at the high school’s downstairs classrooms in the 100 wing, where the rooms have their own climate controls. Furthermore, the 100 wing has so far shown to be more energy efficient. “We’re already seeing returns on the 100 wing,” Williamson said. The board then discussed the proposed agricultural education barn. “I consider this to be acceptable for a good ag program,” the superintendent said. “To have the ability to keep students actively involved, and to recruit good teachers, you need an ag barn.” One idea that had been considered was taking the current vocational building and remodeling it into an ag barn. Williamson believed that would not be practical and would result in the displacement of students. Discussions then turned to the football stadium. The superintendent stated that he prefers grass, but that grass works better when there is as much water as needed for the field. In the drought-prone areas of Texas, that is often not the case. Varsity head football coach Lance Moffett, who was at the meeting, also told the board that both Fredericksburg and Bandera are the only two district football teams that still play on grass. He added that Bandera is considering moving to artificial turf. “A Texas A&M friend told me that, in a perfect world, we could use grass fields for competitive fields and turf fields
for practice fields,” Williamson said. “We don’t have the resources to do this.” He added that whereas early forms of artificial turf consisted mostly of putting carpet atop concrete, today’s artificial turf fields more closely resemble natural grass. The board also discussed whether capital projects money should be spent on items not of urgent necessity and whether funds would be needed in the next four years to take care of school building roofs. Williamson described himself as a “functional but not fancy” type of person who previously thought of the ag building and new field as things that were nice to have but not necessary for successful programs. “In the past, I didn’t feel comfortable enough to recommend a new ag barn or a new football field,” he said. “But now, things have changed, based on new things I’ve seen.” The board voted to send the projects out for bids and then take a close look at the proposals once they came in. “This is a lot of money,” said trustee Dave Campbell. “We need to discuss each one.” Superintendent search In its superintendent search, FISD had 61 total applicants. That number was reduced on Nov. 6, after the board voted to interview six applicants. On Thursday, Nov. 14, the board will hold a special meeting to approve the number of applicants to be further interviewed. The new superintendent will replace Williamson, who is retiring at the end of the FISD fall semester. Effluent water Kris Kneese, City of Fredericksburg assistant city engineer, spoke to the board re-
garding the recent treatment plant upgrades and the possibility of buying effluent water to use for the high school athletic fields. According to Kneese’s presentation, other communities using reclaimed water for such purposes include Round Rock’s Old Settler’s Park, the athletic fields at Trinity University in San Antonio and Nelson Wolff Stadium (where the minor league San Antonio Missions baseball team plays). The cost for effluent water varies. In Kneese’s presentation, it showed that Boot Ranch Golf Course pays 35 cents per 1,000 gallons, which is subject to annual evaluation. Contractors at the waste water treatment plant pay $1.50 per 1,000 gallons. At San Antonio Water System, the rate was $1 per thousand gallons. Williamson said they would look at the costs, talk to the city to get an update on costs and then have a recommendation in December with specific costs. Energy savings Ned Butler, who manages the FISD energy conservation program, gave an annual presentation on the school district’s savings in the energy conservation program, which it has been used since May 2002. Current savings to date, according to Butler’s presentation, was $2.3 million, or 27 percent. The energy reduction also means the reduction of greenhouse gas by 18,301 metric tons. “It’s amazing to me,” Butler told the board. “We have more buildings and air conditioning in the gyms, but we’re still using less kilowatts now than we did then. Money we’re not spending on electricity, water or gas we can use instead toward educating our students.”
LOCAL CHILDREN will have a chance to “Flip the Switch” with Fredericksburg Mayor Jeryl Hoover during the 2013 Christmas Lighting Ceremony on Marktplatz, Friday, Nov. 29. Children 12 and under can pur-

Third Dimension technology Operation Orphans hosts FHS entertains boys’ weekend hunt Nov. 8-9 trustees with demo of 3D printer
By Richard Zowie A tiny octopus, a trumpet mouthpiece, a cell phone casing, a rocket and a key ring holder with the letters FISD stenciled on it in a three-dimensional font. They’re all red and plastic, but they also have something else in common. All were made using a 3D Machining Printer. On Monday, Nov. 11, Fredericksburg High School (FHS) students gave a demonstration of the printer to members of the Fredericksburg Independent School District trustees. A design was entered into the AutoCAD (computer-aided design) software program and then the 3D machine processed the digital model and “printed” it into a threedimensional solid object using a plastic material. Daniel Nguyen showed the crowd a rocket, about a foot and a half in length, designed and previously printed by fellow FHS Principles of Technology II aerospace engineering student Austin Walter. The rocket parts constructed by the 3D machine, including a showerhead injection and piston that fits inside, are a prototype for a rocket the stu-
THE THIRD DIMENSION — Fredericksburg High School students Josh Hampton, left, and Cade Ottmers wait as the FHS vocational program’s 3D printer produces its newest creation. The program uses the printer to help students learn more about technology and manufacturing. — Standard-Radio Post/Richard Zowie dents are designing. Nguyen told the crowd that the transonic rocket the students hope to build would be capable of traveling to an altitude of 100,000 feet (slightly under a height of 19 miles) and carrying a 25-pound NASA payload. Michael Forrester, who teaches precision metal fabrication, robotics and welding at FHS, said the school has had the printer for a few months. For him, it’s like science fiction that’s become reality. “I’ve taught for 17 years and was in industry for 30 years before that, and I never
would’ve dreamed in my lifetime of seeing something like this,” he said. Forrester added that FISD trustee Dave Campbell first “put the bug in my ear” about getting a 3D printer and felt it would be very useful for FHS’ technology program. The teacher added, “I researched and decided it would be perfect for teaching AutoCAD program.” Campbell, who has a manufacturing business, added, “I like the engineering and manufacturing aspects of it, and this is the way to teach students about those fields.”

Avoidance key to allergy relief According to an allergy expert at Baylor College of Medicine, the first line of treatment for allergy symptoms is avoidance. During the fall, ragweed pollen is one of the strongest allergens that can cause mild to severe allergy symptoms as well as asthma exacerbations, said Dr. Adrian Casilla, associate professor of medicine. If avoidance is not possible, he suggests trying over-thecounter antihistamines. Allergy shots are an option for those who find no other relief. These start as weekly shots then slowly move to monthly shots and become more spread out over time. Most people only need aller-
gy shots for three to five years, he said. For those suffering allergy symptoms due to mold, it can be extremely difficult to avoid because mold spores are everywhere. Casillas emphasizes that these allergies still need to be addressed. Casillas notes that although avoidance is important, it is not always possible. In these cases, desensitization, or allergy shots, may be the best option. This treatment can be lifesaving for those who are allergic to insect stings, such as those from bees, wasps and fire ants. These types of stings can be deadly, and it would be

beneficial to seek the attention of an allergist. Casillas recommends individuals getting tested to see if they may be good candidates for desensitization treatment, which involves injecting a very dilute amount of the specific substance that causes the allergic reaction into the body. Slowly, the dose of the substance is increased to help the patient tolerate it and the immune system response is protective rather than harmful, he explained. Those who suspect they have allergies and have not benefitted from over-the-counter antihistamines should talk to their doctor about seeing an allergist.

Book Review ‘First Phone Call from Heaven’ new release
“The First Phone Call from Heaven” by Mitch Albom c.2013, Harper $24.99 / $32.99 Canada 272 pages By Terri Schlichenmeyer Special to the Fredericksburg Standard-Radio Post The call almost scared you half to death. First of all, it woke you up and everybody knows that middle-of-the-night phone calls are never good news. Secondly, you were sound asleep and third, who calls a wrong number at 3 a.m.? It took you awhile to get back to sleep that night. You cursed the phone as soon as the alarm went off, but read “The First Phone Call from Heaven” by Mitch Albom
and you might look differently at the device next time. Tess Rafferty was occupied with a kitchen task when her phone rang. Irritated, she let her answering machine pick up the call, but when she heard the voice on the speaker, she stopped everything she was doing. It was her mother on the phone. Her mother had been dead for four years. Katherine Yellin was the first to talk about her phone call because her sister, Diane — dead at age 46 — had told her to speak up. Then Tess admitted she’d gotten calls, too, and by weeks’ end, six people from little Coldwater, Michigan, had received phone calls from heaven. Soon, Coldwater residents weren’t the only ones to know about the miracle. Over in nearby Alpena, the local TV station sent one of their disposable reporters to see what was going on. Amy Penn wasn’t a believer, but
she figured the best way to escape weekend shifts at the station was to scoop an exclusive story. Once the national media heard about the phone calls from heaven, though, that wasn’t easy to do. Believers, the faithful, and the prayerful crowded into Coldwater, hoping to hear from their own loved ones beyond. Sullivan (Sully) Harding thought they were all fools. There was no heaven, no bliss, no peace. He knew that, because the best woman he’d ever known had been taken from him, his son was now motherless, and this “heaven” stuff was a scam. He had time on his hands, and he planned to find whoever was doing this to his neighbors, to expose the hoax. And then Sully’s phone began to ring … “The First Phone Call from Heaven” reminded me of one of those movies that you could easily watch every night for the rest of your life.
The beginning characters in this book come from all walks of life; they’re normal people who just happen to be getting what every griefstricken person wants. Then author Mitch Albom drops a non-believer into the situation and he lets us watch everything twist and unravel in the midst of media sensationalism, mob mentality, half-truths, fervent faith, and painful realizations that may or may not be valid. It’s uncomfortable to watch, mostly because you know what’s going to happen to them, to their town, and to the phone calls that come a little too onschedule. Yes, this book is predictable but it’s also entertaining, uplifting, and it can be shared with pretty much anybody. And if that’s what you need to read this week, “The First Phone Call from Heaven” is a good call.

SKATING FOR THE FUTURE
Students attending Texas Tech University and Austin Community College in Fredericksburg held a food drive at the end of October and donated 1,256 canned and nonperishable food items to the Fredericksburg Food Pantry. The food drive was associated with Halloween Spirits Week, a week-long student appreciation event for local TTU and ACC students. “Workers at the food pantry were very appreciative of student donations. The president of the board came out to say thank you and stated how wonderful it is to have such a big donation come into the panty,” said Jennifer Lugo, TTU-Fredericksburg supervisor. “He expressed how busy they are this time of the year, and that they can serve anywhere from 30 to 50 families a day. Because of this they have been running low on food.” Students competed for scholarships and door prizes throughout Halloween Spirits Week, with awards donated by local merchants and supporters. Contests consisted of a food drive, pumpkin carving, scarecrow designing and costumes. The five winners in the food drive category scholarship were: Brook Decker, $500; Mireya Robles, $200; Veronica Aguirre, $100; gift card winners were Amanda Martinez and Tiffany Cruz. The pumpkin carving contest scholarship winner was Robles, who earned $100.

Robin Clark, Ph.D., will tackle the existential question “When is a chair more than just a place to sit?” in her Art Talk on Saturday, Nov. 16, from 10 a.m. to noon at the Kerr Arts and Cultural Center Galleries. Coming as it does mid-way through the exhibit of the 14th Annual Texas Furniture Maker’s Show, Clark’s talk will have an array of topical examples at hand. Most of the entries in this show are far more than functional pieces of furniture, and Dr. Clark will be discussing the processes by which everyday objects like a chair or a table rise to the level of art. Tickets for Clark’s Art Talk are $5 for adults and $3 for students, and can be purchased in advance or at the door. The KACC galleries are located at 228 Earl Garrett in downtown Kerrville. The galleries are open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays and from 1-4 p.m. on Sundays. For more information, call 830-895-2911 or visit www. kacckerrville.com. Keep in touch.

Antoinette van Heugten’s latest thriller just released Dutch parents, research at War Institute inspiration for The Tulip Eaters By Yvonne Hartmann Just like her first book, Antoinette van Heugten’s latest thriller, The Tulip Eaters, is “near and dear to my heart.” The Tulip Eaters follows on the heels of van Heugten’s first book, Saving Max, a USA Today bestselling novel based on her real-life experience as a mother of two autistic children. The former international trial lawyer who now calls Fredericksburg home was inspired to write The Tulip Eaters after doing research on the Dutch resistance movement at the Dutch War Institute. “Both of my parents were Dutch,” van Heugten said, explaining that they fought in the resistance in the Netherlands during World War II. “Although they did not speak of it often, as children we heard stories of how our grandmother hid a Jewish boy in the cellar, how my mother transported microfiche on her bicycle and how my father had blown up munitions depots,” said the author, who is known to her friends and family as Nettie Joseph. She continued, “We also
Antoinette van Heugten Photo James Fox were made well aware of the hardships their families and others suffered during the five years of Nazi occupation, particularly the starvation conditions toward the end of the war.” “As such, I have always had a personal as well as a historical fascination with that time period,” van Heugten said. “My parents’ heroism, demonstrated when they were only teenagers was my initial inspiration. Reading the diaries and letters of so many Dutch people during war inspired me
further.” The Tulip Eaters follows Nora de Jong, who comes home from work to find her mother murdered and her sixmonth-old infant daughter, Rose, missing. She also discovers the body of an unknown man who appears to be Dutch, clutching a Luger in his hand. “Nora works with the police to try to find Rose, but there isn’t a single clue until Nora finds mysterious documents in a metal box that bring everything she thought about her parents into question and drives her halfway across the world to Amsterdam, where pieces of an old family diary lead her into her mother’s past and a world of secrets, lies and truths that played out in Nazi-occupied Netherlands between 1940 and 1945,” van Heugten explained. She added, “The more Nora discovers, the less certain she is of the truth and it is only the truth that will lead her to Rose.” “But,” van Heugten said, “the clock is ticking. Will she ever find her? Or has her mother’s secret past already sealed Rose’s fate — and Nora’s own?” The Tulip Eaters was re-
leased on Oct. 29 by Harlequin MIRA and is available at Walmart, Hastings, amazon.com, amazonkindle, Indi Bound, Kobo, ibooks and more. She said that she is planning a book signing in Fredericksburg before the end of the year. And with two books already to her credit, van Heugten is turning her attention to a sequel to Saving Max entitled, Finding Marianne. The story picks up two years later when Marianne resurfaces and is back to her games, determined to exact revenge. Danielle has married Tony and Max is attending college in Houston. In the sequel, Danielle, Max and Doaks try to find her and bring her to justice. The Tulip Eaters and Saving Max are “both about the unconditional love of a mother for her child,” she said.” “In Saving Max, Danielle risked everything to keep Max safe.

Daughters of the Republic of Texas Johnny Nicholas, Hell Bent and friends rock Hilltop Café hold Nov. 11 meeting at Poole’s home The Daughters of the Republic of Texas’ Dr. Wilhelm Keidel Chapter, Fredericksburg, met Monday, Nov. 11, at member Sandra Gold Poole’s home. Member Cynthia Tucker Nelson and her mother Vashti Smith Tucker, member of the DRT Jane Wells Wood Chapter of Burnet, were the guest speakers and provided the program on their ancestry and DRT connection through ancestor John William Smith. Smith was a soldier in the army of the Republic, was part of Green DeWitt’s colony, became known as the final messenger to the Con-
vention of 1836, participated in the Battle of San Jacinto, served as mayor of San Antonio, and became a senator at the capital at Washingtonon-the-Brazos. Due to his height of 6’1” and his red hair, his nickname was “El Colorado”. For information on joining the Dr. Wilhelm Keidel DRT chapter, ladies may call 830-990-2299 or visit www. drtinfo.org. Any woman is eligible for membership provided she is a lineal descendant of a man or woman who rendered loyal service for Texas prior to the consummation of the Annexation Agreement of
the Republic of Texas with the United States of America on Feb. 19, 1846. The DRT organization was founded on Nov. 6, 1891, and it participates in the preservation of Texas history. It also promotes statewide celebrations of important dates in Texas history, encourages historical research into the earliest records of Texas, and places memorial markers at historic sites. The Daughters have served as managers of the Alamo since 1905. For more information on this organization, visit their website at www.drtinfo.org.

PLAYOFF BOUND F
By Matt Ward
ive years, 11 months and 24 days. Around 3,146,400 minutes will have elapsed between kickoff of the Fredericksburg High School varsity football team’s bi-district showdown against Somerset Friday night and kickoff of the Billies’ last playoff appearance against Cibolo Steele in 2007. With six years of waiting soon behind them, Fredericksburg players have little time to celebrate their 9-1 regular season and undefeated District 27-3A championship before wiping the slate clean for post-season play. Yet for those Billies who struggled through a 2-8 campaign in 2011 and battled their way to a 5-5 mark in 2012, making the playoffs validates three years’ worth of effort. “It justifies that all the blood, sweat and tears that we as coaches and players have put into this program has finally paid off,” senior defensive back and wide receiver Matthew McManigle said.

Though the number of laps

‘It’s Miller Time!’ for Billies FHS football fan crucial to success By Matt Ward Players, coaches and fans have caught playoff fever as the Fredericksburg High School varsity football team prepares to face Somerset in the Billies’ first post-season contest in six years, but only one person — Fredericksburg Elementary School employee Steve Miller — is more excited than head coach Lance Moffett. For many years, Miller has walked the sidelines of FHS varsity football games, sharing in the ups and downs with the team and bonding with players THE ULTIMATE BILLIE FAN, Steve Miller (left), congratulates the like senior running back Paco varsity football team alongside head coach Lance Moffett after Martinez. “We all love Miller,” Martinez a win at Wimberley Nov. 1. — Standard-Radio Post file photo said. “He’s always been there for
us through bad and good. He holds us together.” At the end of each Billie victory, Miller joins the team for a post-game celebration dubbed “Miller Time,” where the team circles up, pumps their fist high in the air and shouts “Sure!,” a tradition carried over from previous head coach Dean Herbort. “When Coach Herbort left, Steve was very anxious,” Moffett said. “I got the job and about two weeks into it, he had been calling Mrs. Blackwell and wanted to know if he was still going to get to ride on the bus or whatever.” Moffett and defensive coordinator Bill Wilder went over to the elementary school to meet and visit with the man Moffett calls “the Billies’ number one fan.” “It was a very emotional meeting and I basically went and
asked him if he was going to continue to ride on the bus with us to our games,” Moffett said. “Of course he’s very emotional anyway about the Billies. He immediately teared up and got all excited and said ‘You know it, coach. I’m going to ride with the Billies everywhere they go.’” “Miller Time” has taken on added meaning this season as the Billies have shouted “Sure!” for each victory they earn. By Friday’s win over Bandera, Miller led FHS with nine consecutive “Sure!” cheers, a number the team hopes to grow well into double digits before the season ends. For the seniors the first year Moffett was head coach at FHS, having Miller on the sidelines was a comfort zone for them. “They connected with that and so last year it was the same thing,” Moffett said. “Miller is
part of what we do now. It’s like a member of the coaching staff and a part of the team.” “I get so caught up at the end of the game in all the things that are going on,” he added. “My mind’s going 100 miles an hour after the game and the kids remind me when we get ready to break that it’s Miller Time.” Miller’s connection with the players on the roster has given him a small, but important role on Fredericksburg’s success this season, serving as head cheerleader for a program on the rise. “He’s a vital part of this program. (The players) all love him and respect him,” Moffett said. “I wanted to embrace those kinds of our tradition and our heritage, our pride in our program. To me, those are the little details that to me matter more so than anything else.”

Ladyhorns win state title
Harper earns first 1A trophy, bests San Saba by eight points By Danny Hirt Although the Harper High School girls’ cross country team had no one finish higher than 29th place, the Ladyhorns managed to have enough runners in high positions to capture the state UIL 1A title during Saturday’s championship round held at Old Settlers Park in Round Rock. The win is the first team title in Harper High School history. Sydney Collins was Harper’s top runner, completing the course in 12:41, while her teammates Payton Reid and Hope Dillon finished nearby with times of 12:47 and 12:51, respectively, for 31st and 34th places.
CROSS COUNTRY
Hernandez, Sanchez run at state meet By Richard Zowie Fredericksburg High School cross country didn’t win any top placings at the Class 3A state meet at Round Rock’s Old Settlers Park on Saturday, Nov. 9, but head coach Dan Aldrich is confident next year will be a solid one for his program. Clarissa Sanchez finished 75th out of a field of 106 girls. The freshman’s time was 13:01.77. Sanchez’ time was three-hundredths of a second better than 76th-place Ashley Strong of Brownwood, who ran a 13:01.80. Juan Hernandez, a sophomore, finished 40th out of 102 runners and ran a 17:32.77. He finished less than a tenth of a second ahead of 41stplace Christian Garcia of Clint (17:32.84). “Although both runners were not close to their season running average times, they represented Fredericksburg well and gained an experience for next year that many are unable to do,” Aldrich said. “We are looking forward to having both runners return to lead our teams next year into a season with high expectations.” The coach sees Sanchez and
Harper took the title with a score of 78, eight points lower than second place San Saba. In the boys’ division, the Longhorns’ only qualifier, Micah Middleton, completed the 3.1-mile course in 18:43 for 58th place out of a field of 108 competitors. “The girls simply ran their best race of the season when it counted the most,” said Harper head coach Will Reid. “It was special,” he continued. “I cannot say enough of how blessed I am. They gave it their all and it paid off for them. They did a great job of representing Harper.” Reid also praised the performance put in by Middleton, a junior. “Micah did a great job and Cont. on B4

FHS girls bow out in area loss to Bellville By Matt Ward Volleyball season at Fredericksburg High School came to an abrupt end Thursday as the 26th-ranked Billie varsity volleyball team fell 16-25, 18-25, 20-25 to eighth-ranked Bellville in the area round of the UIL playoffs in a match held at Bastrop Cedar Creek High School. “I’m very proud of this group of kids,” head coach Jason Roemer said. “We played our best match of the year in our last one. There’s no way we can be upset or disappointed. We left it on the court.”
“After the match, the Bellville coach told me, ‘Be proud of your kids. They showed what being a Battlin’ Billie was all about tonight. They fought to the end and played very well,’” Roemer added. “She’s right. We did just that. Every time we would get close to them on the scoreboard they would answer with a big play.” The Brahmanettes raced ahead to an early 4-0 lead and despite an FHS rally to trim the deficit down to two points at 14-12, Bellville went on a six-point run and the Billies never again got within two Cont. on B6

FHS netters win second at state Billie varsity team caps fall season with 25-6 (5-0 in district) record
By Lisa Treiber-Walter It is every coach’s hope that his team, as a whole, can achieve more than the sum of his individual players. For Fredericksburg High School Coach Randall King, the pieces fell into place this past weekend, when his squad rallied together for a second-place finish in the state team tennis tournament in Abilene. “What an incredible weekend of tennis,” King said. “The kids were awesome.” Billie varsity netters defeated Kilgore, 10-4, in the state team tennis quarterfinals, before ousting Vernon in a close 10-7 semifinals decision on Friday, Nov. 8. Fredericksburg then bowed out, 10-2, to defending champion Abilene Wylie in what was a “back-and-forth” finals on Saturday, Nov. 9. This was the first time the FHS tennis team has reached the finals level of state team play since 2009, when the Billies lost to Wylie in a rain-shortened format. This was also FHS’ fourth trip to the state tournament since 2009. “It was really awesome to see these kids pull together as a team and achieve such a great accomplishment,” King said. “As coaches, we could not be prouder of them. They played with heart and deter-
mination.” “I would like to thank all the parents and support that came and cheered these kids on this weekend. To be a state finalist in 3A tennis is something these kids and families will have with them forever,” King said. “We are looking forward to a great spring of individual tennis,” he added. State Quarterfinals In Fredericksburg’s 10-4 dismissal of Kilgore in the quarterfinals, play was not a “walk in the park.” “Kilgore was a very solid team that has made regular appearances at the state tourney,” King said. “Doubles wins were the key to getting momentum in this match. After doubles, we were up 5-2 going into singles, which gave us the edge to close it out.” Class 3A State Team Tennis FHS wins 2nd in Texas behind Abilene Wylie STATE QUARTERFINALS FHS 10 – Kilgore 4

Billies look to continue success on hardwood By Matt Ward In order for the Fredericksburg High School varsity boys’ basketball team to make its fifth consecutive postseason appearance, head coach Tim Kaman will have to perform a balancing act this winter. On the one hand are the young men who have gone through offseason workouts and preseason scrimmages with the team and on the other hand are the 12 players who will be contending for spots on the varsity and/or junior varsity rosters once the varsity football team completes their postseason run. “Right now, we don’t know what team we’re going to have because of football,” Kaman said. “We know what we have here. I think our kids learned all about where we are and where we need to be. We’re going to have to work hard.” After two scrimmages last week, the Billies will get an extra week of practice this week before regular season play opens Tuesday, Nov. 19, at home against Ingram. “It’s good that we’re missing those (football) kids for the sake of getting our other kids more experience,” Kaman said. “If they are backups, they’re just one play away from being in the lineup, so they’ve got to be
ready.” Integrating the football players back into the team chemistry will be the toughest challenge for the FHS head coach. “We’re going to be a much quicker team (when the football players return). We’re a little taller, not quite as quick right now,” Kaman said. “I want to put all of our kids into positions where they’re going to be successful,” he added. “With the group we have now, we have to play a certain way and it’s not the way I’d like to play with the entire group that I know we’re going to have. When we get everyone, then we will be able to run a little more and put more pressure on people because we have more depth.” While he will likely activate 11-12 players on any given night for varsity play, Kaman said there are about 15 players who are capable of suiting up for the varsity. Several players may split time between the varsity and junior varsity lineups to maximize their in-game action. “That’s why we were so successful last year because of guys like Hunter Fries, Graves Cowsar and Ryan McBee,” Kaman said. “All those guys played JV their junior year and I think that’s why we were as sur-
prisingly successful as we were last year because those juniors got a lot of experience.” Making the playoffs for a fifth year in a row is key to a successful season for the Billies, he said. “We’re trying to get to where that’s just a staple, but it’s not easy,” Kaman said. “The most important thing is that we peak in district around January.” Standing in their way is a tough District 27-3A slate, which includes perennial powerhouse Boerne. “They graduated probably the most, so they’re going to be down,” Kaman said, “but them being down is like everyone else being pretty good so I still think they’ll be the favorites.” Staying afloat in district will require the Billies “to play well every night,” Kaman said. “There’s no shoe in. There’s no easy team. We may be the easy team. Who knows?” “We’re trying to get the mindset with our guys that it’s another year and it’s another step forward,” he added. “That’s up to our guys. Do they want to be the team that breaks the streak and not make the playoffs? It’s just a matter of what are they going to do on their time to get better. If we represent the school and the community of Fredericksburg the way we’re supposed to, I think we’ll be successful.”

She said, “We found out the things we are good at and the aspects of the game we need the most work on in practice.” “That’s the main reason we schedule tough tournaments early in the season,” the coach said.

TD passes lift Billies past Bandera 28-10 Grona-to-Beard connection key in ninth straight win By Matt Ward Trick plays, unusual formations, new stunt packages, dual quarterbacks on the same play — Bandera head coach David Sine threw everything but the kitchen sink at good friend Lance Moffett and the Battlin’ Billies Friday night. The Fredericksburg High School varsity football team used a more familiar weapon against the Bulldogs as junior quarterback Kyle Grona connected with junior wide receiver Brayden Beard for three touchdown passes during the Billies’ 28-10 home victory over Bandera. “(Coach Sine) threw it all at us and we expected it,” Moffett said after the game. “We knew they were good and we didn’t do a good job of adjusting to it early. He’s a smart coach and his plan was to keep our offense off the field.” Fredericksburg’s victory clinched an undefeated loop record for the Billies, who celebrated their first district championship since 1998 after the game. “Football is a sport where you have to keep earning respect all the time,” Moffett said. “We wanted to establish ourselves as a team. If we don’t go 5-0 (in district), then people question it. This was an exclamation point to leave no doubt that we are the district champions.” Fast start Playing with a short field after returning the opening kickoff to their own 43, FHS struck quickly, scoring on a 17-yard touchdown pass from Kyle Grona to Brayden Beard with 8:23 left in the first quarter. Fredericksburg’s second score came soon after as the
Billie defense forced a threeand-out to set up a 44-yard touchdown run by Paco Martinez, giving FHS a 14-0 lead with 5:14 left in the first quarter. “The first two series, I thought we were going to beat them 80-0,” Moffett said. “We ran seven plays and had 14 points on the board. We shut them down on defense and everything was going good.” And then the Bulldogs got into the game. “I knew that (Sine) was going to have a plan for us and after we scored 14 points, they were going to have a long drive,” Moffett said. “They found what they were good at and they were able to execute it.” Bandera responded with an 11-play, 75-yard scoring drive capped off with a five-yard TD run by Ty Neff to trim the deficit to 14-7 early in the second quarter. The Bulldogs were able to drive the length of the field twice in the second quarter, though the Billie defense held Bandera at bay, keeping the score at 14-7 at halftime. “They controlled the ball for 16 minutes in the first half,” Moffett said. “You start looking at stats and you think, they’re going to win this game if we continue to let them do that.” Taking momentum Bandera opened the second half by taking the kickoff down to the FHS 17, setting up a 32-yard field goal by Maverick Hicks to trim the deficit to 14-10 with 10:49 left in the third quarter. “We didn’t panic or freak out,” Moffett said. “We did what I think great teams do and responded to what we needed to do to fix the prob-

Fredericksburg took advantage, driving 67 yards on 10 plays, including a nine-yard touchdown pass from Grona to Beard to give the Billies a 21-10 lead with 4:24 left in the third quarter. “The first half, we were good, but they just got into some blitzes that we weren’t expecting,” Martinez said. “We came back and hit them in the mouth. It took a while to pick up momentum because they
had it, but we took it from them.” The two schools traded possession early in the fourth quarter before the Billies put the game out of reach on a five-play, 65-yard drive to set up the third touchdown pass from Grona to Beard — a fiveyard score — as FHS took a 28-10 lead with 7:39 left in the contest. Sebastian Ortega intercepted the next Bandera pass and the Billie offense was able to run out the final 7:22 to secure the victory. “I knew we were really good (coming into the season). We just had to come prove it,” Beard said. “We just wanted
respect. Even as we were winning a lot of games, I feel like no one respected us and I think we’ve earned that now. If not, we’re going to go prove it next week (in the playoffs against Somerset.)” Score By Quarters 0 7 3 0 - 10 14 0 7 7 - 28 Statistics FHS Bandera 14 First Downs 12 189-37 Yards Rushing-Carries 116-31 107 Yards Passing 125 13-8 Passes Att.-Compl. 22-9 0 Passes Intercepted 1 296 Total Offense 241 0-0 Fumbles-Lost 1-1 2-30.5 Punts-Average 2-37.5 1-10 Penalties-Yards 6-60 BHS FHS

JV bests Bandera 18-16 to end season Josh Cleland rushed for 125 yards and passed for another 37 in his first start at quarterback as the Fredericksburg High School junior varsity football team ended its season on Nov. 7 by defeating Bandera on the road, 18-16. The Billies trailed 16-6 entering the second half but stormed back with touchdowns in the third quarter. Head coach Shannon Petsch described the game as a great one to finish the season. “The players played to their potential and got a great win out of it,” Petsch said. Fredericksburg began the scoring in the first quarter on a 25-yard touchdown run by Josh Cleland with the extra point attempt being no good. Bandera then responded with 10- and 55-yard touchdown runs with successful two-point conversions to make the score 16-8.
“The first half was a little shaky, and we had some kids moved up to varsity and some injured,” Petsch said. “Some players had to play new positions and it took a little time for them to settle in. In the second half we came out fired up and ready to play. The defense was making key plays and the offense got the ball moving in the third.” The Billies’ 12 third quarter points (they were unsuccessful in two-point conversions) came from a one-yard touchdown run by Cleland and then a 13-yard touchdown pass from Cleland to Mitchell Edwards. The JV squad also helped its cause with fumble recoveries by Josh Stafford and Ty Handley and interceptions by Edwards and Cleland. Ty Handley was named player of the week for offensive and defensive play.
When two teams that appear evenly matched on paper face off on the field, winning often comes down to who can impose their will upon their opponent to secure a victory. As the 28th-ranked Fredericksburg High School varsity football team prepares to begin its first playoff game since 2007, key to a victory over 80th-ranked Somerset Friday night in the bi-district round at Frank Mata Memorial Stadium in San Antonio will be taking “Fredericksburg football” to the Bulldogs. Kickoff in the game is slated for 7:30 p.m. “The thing we’ve got to do is to stay on task and stay on mission and purpose and not get caught up in the hype of the playoffs and the mystique that they might bring to it,” Fredericksburg head coach Lance Moffett said Monday. “We’re all about the team and we’re going to display that Friday night,” he added. “They may beat us because they have more talent than us, but they’re not going to beat us because they have a better team than us. We are going to be the better team.” Rich in tradition Somerset has a program rich in tradition and success, built on the shoulders of head coach Sonny Detmer, a high school coaching legend, whose son, Koy Detmer, was an 11-year NFL veteran quarterback and now serves as his dad’s offensive coordinator. A third generation in the Detmer family, Koy Detmer Jr., is the Bulldog quarterback and is on the recruiting radar at Brigham Young University, where his uncle, Ty, was a Heisman Trophy winner. “That just oozes tradition and pride,” Moffett said. “At the end of the day, it’s a foot-

went on a four-game winning streak, defeating Kingsville King 35-34, Hondo 42-15, Poteet 44-0 and San Antonio Sam Houston 32-20. “You never know (what can happen) when you get into the playoffs. We have a great football team in all three phases of the game,” Moffett said. “If we can do our brand of football which is hardnosed, stop the run defense and put them in a situation where they have to throw, I think we’re going to be in good shape.” Winning with discipline In order to be successful on Friday, Moffett said the Billies will have to maintain the discipline they have shown both on and off the field during the regular season.

“Our penalties have dropped down and we’ve gotten a lot more disciplined,” Moffett said. “I think that’s where the focus has to be more is on the mental side of it.” “In the playoffs, you want to treat every game like we did Navarro,” he added. “We told the kids against Navarro that we have to match their intensity. They’re known for how hard they play the game and if we want to be like them, we have to play the game as hard as they do. That’s the mindset that we want to take into it.” While the Billies have decreased their penalty and personal foul issues, the Bulldogs struggled with those problems late in the season, culminating in a La Vernia game that saw Somerset penalized 16 times for 139 yards and have two players ejected. “We’re not going to get caught up in all that,” Moffett said. “We’re coming to win a football game and between the 25 seconds that a play is going, we’re fixing to get after you.” With the potential of another six weeks of football for the Billies, the message in the FHS locker room has remained consistent — “Right Way Every Day.” “Are you mentally and physically prepared to play for another six weeks? We’re not going to talk about week two, three, four, five or six because we’ve got to totally focus on week one,” Moffett said. “We’ve been trying to do that all year and it’s at a premium now because it’s win or go home. You either win or you’re taking up equipment.” While the celebration of the Billies’ first district championship in 15 years went on long into the night Friday, the time for enjoying the past is over, the FHS head coach said. “We’re 0-0 now. 9-1 and 5-0 in district means nothing. Every team we play throughout the playoffs is going to be as good as or better than every team we played in district,” Moffett said. “It’s do or die time. It’s a bi-district championship. Let’s go get another trophy and then we’ll worry about the next one after that.”

Eagles blast Believers 52-8 Heritage to face WF Notre Dame in playoffs By Danny Hirt
HARPER LIBERO Payton Reid returns a serve from a Weimar Lady Cat in last Thursday’s Area round volleyball playoff match played at Gonzales. The Ladyhorns, who

Harper falls in season finale By Danny Hirt Sophomore quarterback Gus Sagraves was directly involved with all three of Harper’s touchdowns in the Longhorns’ 24-7 victory at Junction Friday evening. The game was the season-ending contest for both schools. Harper ended the 2013 campaign with a 2-3 District 14-1A Division I record (5-5 overall) while the host Eagles finished up 1-4 in the league and also 5-5 on the year. League-leading Mason (5-0, 8-1) wrapped up the district title with a convincing 61-10 win over Center Point, while Brackett (4-1, 8-1) took home second place by virtue of its 55-22 home victory over Ozona (3-2, 5-5) Friday Because of its title, Mason will draw a bye in the first round of the Region IV UIL playoffs this weekend and will play the winner of the Shiner vs. Santa Maria game next weekend. Meanwhile, Brackett takes on Weimar Friday while Ozona plays Flatonia.
Harper 24, Junction 7 Sagraves ran for two touchdowns and threw for a third in the Longhorns’ 24-7 win at Junction. The signal caller connected on 13 of 24 passes for 252 yards while not incurring any interceptions. Leading rusher for the game was Harper’s Jayden Baumann who gained 120 yards on 22 carriers. Following a scoreless first quarter, Sagraves managed to get the ’Horns on the scoreboard with a one-yard plunge with only five seconds left on the opening half clock. Briley Jalowy made the first of three point-after kicks on the night to give Harper a 7-0 margin at intermission. Jalowy also led the Longhorn defense with 16 total tackles, 11 unassisted, giving him a grand total of a team-leading 121 tackles for the season. Midway in the third period, however, the Eagles tied the game when Juan Perez carried the ball across the goal line, followed by a successful PAT kick. A minute later, Sagraves tilted the scoreboard back in Harper’s favor when he found Jacob Pierz
open on a 51-yard pass play that resulted in a touchdown. Early in the final stanza, Jalowy found the range on a 37-yard field goal, boosting the Longhorns’ advantage to 17-7. For the game, Pierz hauled in four aerials for 89 yards. Meanwhile, teammate Brayden Hagendorf caught another four passes for a team-leading 99 yards. Sagraves finalized the Harper scoring when he outran Junction defenders on a 21-yard journey to the endzone with 5:02 left in the game. On defense, Longhorn Guy Stevenson intercepted a pass thrown by Junction quarterback Drew Martinez. Martinez was able to complete only two of his 14 aerials for 20 yards. Harper Junction

Heritage School closed out the 2013 regular football season with a convincing 52-8 victory at Selma River City Believers Friday evening. Now the Eagles will set their sites on this weekend’s first round of the TAPPS Division II six-man football playoffs as District 4’s third place representative. Heritage will head to Wichita Falls Saturday to face WF Notre Dame Catholic School at 2 p.m. Other District 4 teams involved with post-season action include league champion San Antonio Castle Hills (5-0, 10-0), second place Seguin Lifegate (4-1, 5-5), and fourth place finisher Believers (2-3, 5-4). Like Heritage, Believers made the playoffs as a wild-card team. Win over Selma Joe Meek was the go-to guy for Heritage, scoring six touchdowns (including two from interception returns) to lead the Eagles to a 52-8 victory Friday at Believers Christian School in Selma. Meek was also top rusher in the contest, compiling 135 ground yards on 16 carries. In addition, he completed two of three passes for another 22 yards and a TD, that one coming with only 1:32 remaining in the game to teammate Joe Lucas on a 14-yard play. “This is exactly the kind of game this team needed,” said Heritage head coach Tim Shipman, referring to last week’s 27-26 home loss to Seguin Lifegate when an Eagle comeback fell inches short. “We have played some tough hard-nose battles this year and we have to work hard and put together a complete game. We were very close to that tonight.” While the Heritage offense
generated 247 total yards (215 rushing, 32 passing), it was the defensive effort that came into its own Friday, confining Believers to only 93 offensive yards (including minus 13 yards rushing on 17 attempts). “I was very pleased with the way we moved the ball early and the way the defense really stepped up,” Shipman said. Meek got the Eagles on the scoreboard first with a oneyard plunge with five minutes gone in the opening stanza. Jacob Huser’s conversion kick was true, giving Heritage an 8-0 margin. On the night, Huser connected five of six PAT tries. Three minutes later, Meek added a second TD, this time taking the ball from the Believers’ 39 all the way to the end zone to put his team up, 16-0. Meek added two more scores in the second period, first by intercepting an errant pass on his own nine-yard line and returning all the way. He then capped his first half scoring with a five-yard jaunt that ended in pay dirt and put the Eagles up 30-0 at intermission. Picking up in the third quarter where he’d left off earlier, Meek went to the house on a one-yard carry at the 1:32 mark. Moments later, on Believers’ next possession, Meek picked off another pass and returned it 40 yards for another tally, increasing the Heritage advantage to 44-0. Believers was able to avoid the shut-out early in the fourth period when Chris Cottingham reeled in a pass from Tyreck Hill that covered 42 yards. Cottingham’s PAT was good, putting the score at 44-8. Meek also had a hand in the Eagles’ final touchdown of the night when he found Lucas open on a 14-yard aerial that went for a score with only 1:39
left. Huser’s kick put the final score at 52-8. Playoff game Saturday Despite last week’s relatively easy win, Saturday’s trip to Wichita Falls Notre Dame Catholic School could prove to be quite challenging. After all, the Knights are ranked number one in the division and are sporting an impressive 9-0 record. And Coach Shipman and company know that Notre Dame will have good reason to load up for Heritage. “There is no doubt that Notre Dame will be gunning for us,” he said. “We have knocked them out of the playoffs the last two years in the state semi-finals.” Shipman’s homework tells him that the Knights “return a couple of good running backs in Cody McElroy and Wes Brinkman. Ninety percent of the offense goes through McElroy and if we can slow him down and put points on the board, we can win.” The Eagles’ mentor knows that anything could happen Saturday when the two schools face off on the gridiron. “Our goals are the same as they were in the beginning of the season. Right now, every team in the state is 0-0. This team (Heritage) has worked hard all year and they deserve this opportunity,” said Shipman. Heritage 16 14 14 8 -- 52 Believers 0 0 0 8 -- 8

POWERING THE BALL back over the net for a Harper point is Ladyhorn Logan White (22) in last week’s 1A volleyball playoff match with Weimar. For the night, White recorded six kills and 11 digs. — Standard-Radio Post/Danny Hirt
Not in the cards: Harper knocked out of playoffs By Danny Hirt Although the Harper Ladyhorns were able to hold off a Weimar run in the opening game of the Area round of UIL volleyball playoffs last Thursday, they simply could not quell the rising tide of momentum from the Lady Cats for the remainder of the match. The match was played in the Gonzales High School gymnasium. Harper, which fell to 30-7 on the season, took the first contest 27-25, but was edged out in the last three by scores of 20-25, 23-25 and 20-25. The Ladyhorns had captured the District 27-1A championship by winning all 10 of their league matches. The league’s two other playoff schools — runner-up Leakey and third place Junction have also been eliminated. Leakey succumbed to Brackett 3-2 in the opening bi-district round while Junction fell to Round Top-Carmine 3-0 in Area competition. Loss to Weimar Trailing two games to one in the fourth and final contest of the night, the Ladyhorns trailed by as many as four points (4-8 and 5-9) before making a run at Weimar in the latter going. Harper managed to close the gap to two points (19-21 and 20-22) before the Lady Cats reeled off three consecutive points to win the game as well as the match. HHS maintained a strong and determined presence in the opening game, jumping out to a 7-1 margin, then extending that to seven points (20-13) before Weimar made a run. The Lady Cats managed to tie the score twice (24-24 and 25-25) before Harper put together two consecutive points to win the contest by a 27-25 count. After Weimar pulled out to a six-point advantage (13-19), the Ladyhorns charged back, tying the score at 20-20 on a hard kill
by Sarah Whitten. But the Lady Cats regained their composure, keeping their heads above water just enough to pull off the victory. For the night, Courtney Ahrns and Sarah Whitten contributed 11 kills apiece, while Taylor Reid and Macie Lumpkins registered 20 and 17 assists, respectively. Five Ladyhorns recorded double-digit digs, let by Ahrns with 19, followed by Reid with 14, Lumpkins and Whitten with 13 each, and Logan White with 11. Ladyhorns fall to Weimar (27-25, 20-25, 23-25, 20-25) Kills: Courtney Ahrns 11, Sarah Whitten 11, Taylor Reid 8, Macie Lumpkins 7, Logan White 3, Sydney Collins 3. Aces: Reid 3, Ahrns 2, Lumpkins 1. Assists: Reid 20, Lumpkins 17, Ahrns 1, Payton Reid 1. Digs: Ahrns 19, T. Reid 14, Lumpkins 13, Whitten 13, White 11, Collins 8, P. Reid 6. Blocks: White 6, Ahrns 5, Collins 1, Whitten 1.

points in the set, falling 16-25. “Bellville was the best 3A team we played all year,” Roemer said. “They had 46 kills and 68 digs in three sets of play. That’s high level volleyball.” In the second set, the two schools played to a virtual draw with neither side leading by more than a couple of points until FHS was forced to take a timeout down 13-17. The Billies were able to rally back to a 16-17 deficit but Bellville pulled away late for 25-18 win over Fredericksburg. “We only had 27 kills (in the match), but we attacked very well,” Roemer said. “They just made great digs and kept balls up that against other teams would have found holes and been kills for us. “Bellville was clicking and made every play, and it seemed they made their own luck,” he added. “We attacked balls off of their shoulders and heads and balls would bounce up and stay in play.” Fredericksburg opened set three on a 4-1 run, but Bellville matched with a 4-1 run of their own as the two schools went point-for-point until a 19-17 Fredericksburg lead was ended on a sevenpoint Brahmanette run. “All year long we’ve talked about teams that we are even with we have to stay close and play our best volleyball after point 20,” Roemer said. “We gave ourselves chances, just could not capitalize when we needed to.” Though the Billies were able to add a late kill, Bellville finished off Fredericksburg for a 25-20 set three victory to take the match. “Offensively, we were really pleased with what we got from our attackers,” Roemer said. “Monica (Montgomery) did a great job of run-

We played well in all facets, but it was just not good enough to win on this night.” Bellville over FHS (16-25, 18-25, 20-25) Kills: Adrianna Hartmann 10, Allie Doucet 9, Kiersten Kott 4, Taylor Kitchens 4.

Freshmen win finale over Bandera The Fredericksburg High School freshmen football team capped its season with a 29-16 win over Bandera at home on Thursday, Nov. 7. “This was a great way to end district and the year,” said coach Dusty Gibbs. “We talked all week as a team about staying focused and ending the year on a high note. I was proud of how the guys responded and got the job done.” Neil Loth led the way with three rushing touchdowns, while Wyatt Hebert also carried in another TD. The running scores were made possible by the freshmen’s ability to block well up front, Gibbs said. “We were able to establish the running game early, and that opened up some play action passes later,” Gibbs said. “The defense did a great job on fourth-down stops in our territory to get the ball back.”

PUTTING SOME ‘OOMPH’ into her serve, Grace Igarta opens play in the state team tennis tournament against Kilgore on Friday, Nov. 8, in Abilene.

Hernandez’ visits to state as experience the team can build upon for next year. FHS is looking to return 17 of 20 letterman runners. “We are expecting both Clarissa and Juan to lead the groups with confidence that a return to the state meet will yield improvement,” Aldrich said. “Both runners went into the state meet anxious and filled with mixed emotions that they were surrounded by better runners than themselves. In the end, they gained confidence that they now know what it takes to succeed at the state meet and that they are great runners like the others. I am proud of how these young athletes ran today and look forward to the return of our runners and what we are expecting to do in 2014 with our teams.”
KNEELING INTO HER SHOT, FHS player Shannon Smith flexes to reach a play in order to help her and doubles partner Allison Vaughn defeat Abilene Wylie’s Shackmuth/Sarah Beecher, 3-6, 6-4, 6-2, in the state team tennis tournament final rounds Saturday, Nov. 9, in Abilene.

Students learn manners, social graces at first locally held classes
G
one are the white gloves and serious frowns at each minor social faux pas. But a group of nearly 70 local youngsters are learning the timeless manners and interaction skills at Fredericksburg’s cotillion classes. Meeting every second Tuesday for 10 weeks at St. Mary’s Holy Family Center, 23-year cotillion expert Ward Sear, of Denver, Colo., uses constant reminders to reinforce proper behavior in social situations to children grades four through eight. “Always keep your mouth clean.” “Pass things at the table to the right, unless someone is to your immediate left.” “Always pass the salt and pepper together.” “We had some classes that parents took children to in Kerrville, but we needed our own cotillion courses here in Fredericksburg. St. Mary’s school was willing to get behind the program and serve as the host,” said Elizabeth Harris, a parent who wanted area children to get a taste of social interaction. “This is our first year for a local classes, but we hope to have it every year. There is so much information to cover that the curriculum can be different each year.” The courses go far beyond placement for dining utensils. Simple things like a firm handshake and looking people in the eye do not come naturally in the awkward adolescent stage. The skills learned will help students later in life, from giving them confidence in myriad social situations, to performing bet-
ter in job interviews. Lessons also touch on etiquette for social media, a relatively new addition. “You hear stories about cotillion teachers swatting the hands of children or using a metronome to learn dance steps,” Sear said. “I am not so strict.” Sear infuses humor into the lessons, which helps youth to relax: “If you get a bad bite, never spit it out in your napkin,” he instructed. “Excuse yourself and spit it out in the restroom. You don’t want to leave a surprise for the waiter.” “If the food slips, drips or flips, avoid it in a formal dining situation.” “Don’t tell the hostess you don’t like a food she served. Eat at least a little as a courtesy.” “Men keep their coats on in a formal restaurant, even if their date is cold.” Harris met Sear while he was touring InSight Gallery, where she works. He agreed to hold classes and fly in to Fredericksburg from Denver if parents enrolled enough youth. Sear is teaching 25 fourthand fifth-graders, and 40 youth in grades six through eight. Public and private school students are taking part in these first-year classes, which cost between $125 and $145. “A lot of the kids were nervous about the classes, especially the boys, but now that they have done it, they really enjoyed it,” Harris said. “Ward uses modern music, like Taylor Swift and One Direction so they recognize the songs.” Harris said the skills are important for anyone. “They learn how to make
Cotillion
good first impressions, and that’s important, because you not just representing yourself. You are representing your family, your school. It will serve them well for the rest of their lives,” she said. “It’s fun to watch them progress.” Boys and girls dress in formal clothes and lessons during one class consist of table manners during a dining session, then dancing. Other classes have included lessons on making good first impressions, meeting and greeting others, conversation skills, sportsmanship and teamwork, social media etiquette and common courtesies. Each class infuses the etiquette curriculum with social dance instruction for ballroom, swing and group dances. Harris said social confidence around the opposite sex comes more quickly once they learn the art of conversation. “He gives them tips on conversation, for instance, questions to ask to find out about their dance partner,” she said. “They learn to talk to people that are not in their social comfort zone.” Some of the mothers present went through classes years ago. “I still remember those things to this day,” said Jill Thompson-Elliott, who owns Haberdashery Boutique. “I went through a ‘white glove’ program in Mississippi at a similar age. It gives them that little bit of confidence in situations, like asking a girl to dance.” Cotillion courses will wrap up on Tuesday, Nov. 19 at St. Mary’s Holy Family Center. For information about future cotillion offerings, email Harris at lizmharris@hotmail.com.

Fredericksburg Cotillion Dining tips • Respond promptly to any “RSVP” invitation whether you can attend or not. (“Respondez, s’il vous plait.”) If you cannot respond promptly, do so as soon as you know if you will/will not be attending. This lets the hostess know how many people to plan for food, drinks and seating. Not letting your hostess know leaves makes it difficult for her to plan and can cost her money if she buys food for people who aren’t coming. • Ladies should be seated first and to the gentleman’s right, honor position, when possible. • First thing when seated? Place your napkin in your lap. • Don’t begin eating until everyone at the table has been served and/or until the

host or hostess has begun to eat. • Nothing should be on the table besides dishes and flat wear. (no keys, purses, hats, etc.) • Cell phones should be off or on vibrate. No texting! • No elbows on the table. • Chew quietly with your lips closed! • Use your flatware from the outside in. • Spoon your soup away from yourself. It’s neater. • Remember that bread plates are to the left and drinks to the right of your plate. • Don’t drink beverages while you are chewing food. Swallow first, pat your lips clean with your napkin before taking a drink. (Clean glass and no biology experiment.)
• Address waiters and waitresses as “sir,” “ma’am” or “miss” and treat them always with respect. • Good service should be rewarded with a tip of 15 to 20 percent (sales tax amount x 2 is any easy way to calculate). • When at someone’s house, don’t request seconds unless everyone’s been served and there is more food on the table that you can see. • Don’t season your food before tasting it. • Toothpicks, like tooth brushes, are not used at the table. • When finished, place your knife and fork parallel to each other at the 4:30 position on the plate signaling that you have finished and your plate is ready to be cleared.

Harper News Lots of hunters are having really good luck this year. The deer are in good shape, have seen some nice horns, and hunting season is off to a good start. Congratulations to our high school athletes, even though their seasons are now over. The girls’ volleyball team was a district winner but lost out in the area round of playoffs, and the football team lost its last game, but is now on to other sports for the year. The band went to the state contest and missed the finals by one point, leaving them in eighth place at state. Our cross country teams did extremely well again this year. The girls’ won the state meet on Saturday and Micah Middleton was 58th at state. The girls’ team includes Rebekah Lester, Rachel Maner, Kayla Inmon, Sydney Collins, Hope Dillon, Payton Reid and Taylor Reid. Both boys’ and girls’ teams will hit the basketball courts now and will be getting ready for the annual Harper Tournament as well as twice weekly games and other weekend tournaments. The fun time at Homecoming with registering exes did not make the column last week, but here are the results. Seventy-five people registered as exes; the Class of 1953 was the oldest class that registered and had two members — Stormy Maner and Josephine Rieger; the Class of 1963 had
By Peggy Ernst
the greatest number in attendance, and Brian Barrett (class unknown) traveled the greatest distance, 2500 miles. It would be interesting to see if this could expand each year and other Homecoming activities added for the exes to come home for a reunion. The First Baptist Church, along with the other six churches of Harper, expressed their gratitude for all the help and support given for the Fall Festival once again this year. It was a great success, with lots of kids playing games, filling their tummies, competing in a number of different contests and more. It is a wonderful alternative to trick-or-treating and the community supports it in large numbers. Toys for Tots boxes showed up around town this weekend — in churches, businesses and the library. Hopes are to fill the boxes before Christmas for needy children in our area. The boxes are sponsored by the Rotary Club of Fredericksburg, but the toys given in Harper will remain in Harper. Also, remember the holidays coming up the end of this month. There will be no school on Thanksgiving, Nov. 28, or the following day, Nov. 29. Students will have early release on Wednesday, Nov. 27. The Harper High School Student Council led the program and meal for Harper veterans on Monday, Veterans Day. The event was held at the First Baptist Church fellow-
ship hall and was put together very well. On our sick list this week, we are remembering Mike Armstrong, back in a nursing home in Fredericksburg, and June Spencer. Word is that if you like the Spurs and you want to support our boys’ and girls’ high school basketball teams, you can do both in one day in the Spurs arena in San Antonio on Dec. 21. The high school teams will play Sonora teams, girls at 12:45 p.m. and boys at 2:15 p.m. The ticket will also include the Spurs game with the Oklahoma Thunder at 7:30 p.m. There are upper level tickets and lower level tickets available at this time, but they will go fast. Talk to Coach Lumpkins or Coach Millican at school. The Community Thanksgiving Service takes place on Sunday, Nov. 17, at the Methodist Church at 6 p.m. All the churches of the community take part, the Community Choir sings, and the free-will offering goes to the Harper Help Center. You may bring boxed or canned goods, or you may contribute monetarily for the special Thanksgiving boxes given out this time of year. Refreshments by the ladies of the hosting church will be served following the service and lots of good singing, messages and fellowship take place. The public is invited
and welcomed. Just to get on your calendar — the Community Christmas Program will be held at the Presbyterian Church on Dec. 8. There will only be one practice for the Community Choir, and it will be Dec. 5 at the Presbyterian Church at 6 p.m. For the service, each church is asked to contribute one song selection with their own church members performing, or they may swap it out for something else special (reading, short skit, instrumental, etc.). Peggy Ernst is coordinating and the leaders of each group performing are asked to give her a call and leave a message at 830-864-4388 or 830-7392101 or email at pegernst@ gmail.com. This is always a special program with beautiful music, old and new, and very meaningful to a lot of people. Proceeds from this program will also go to the Help Center, which also puts together another special box of foods for this holiday. (These boxes are in addition to the weekly opening the ladies do and distribution of foods and other items as needed.) Lots of holiday parties coming up within a few weeks — anything to be mentioned, please get into me as soon as you can. Phone and email is listed above. We are happy to put everything we possibly can in this column to keep the Harper folks informed.

Music Club to host guitarists for Sunday afternoon concert Fredericksburg Music Club is bringing back American guitarist Christopher McGuire for a concert on Sunday, Nov. 17, at the Fredericksburg United Methodist Church. This year, he will be joined by Slovenian guitarist Mak Grgic. The 3 p.m. concert will feature a varied performance with music composed by Vivaldi and Stephen Foster. Donations will be accepted to help with the cost of the concert. The club would also like to acknowledge a grant from the Gillespie County Hotel and Occupancy Tax fund that helps with the costs of presenting the concert. American guitarist Christopher McGuire has performed with a number of musicians, including Charlie Byrd, Carlos Barbosa-Lima, Bucky Pizzarelli, Howard Alden, Roland Dyens, Carlos Bonell, Karin Schaupp, Robert Guthrie, Van Cliburn Gold Medalist José Feghali and violinist Swang Lin. In October of 2005, McGuire shared the stage with Van Cliburn in a tribute concert for Fort Worth philanthropist Roz Rosenthal. He is currently artistic director of the Fort Worth Classic Guitar Society (FWCGS) and the Allegro Guitar Society of Dallas (AGSD). McGuire has performed hundreds of solo concerts in the United States, Mexico, Japan, Venezuela, Germany, Spain and the Canary Islands. He has played his guitar for presidents of the United States of America and Mexico, three former governors
of Texas and members of the Spanish Royal Family. In addition, he has been a guest artist with orchestras and chamber ensembles and also composes for his eclectic music group, D’Accord. In 2007, he was featured on stage at the Bass Performance Hall performing his own music as well as solo works by Weiss, Villa-Lobos and Tarrega in the world premiere of “Fables of Loneliness” with the Bruce Wood Dance Company. He has performed more than 1,500 informal performances in schools and other community venues in cities throughout North America, Spain, Venezuela and Japan. In addition to numerous television and radio appearances, he was the subject of a half-hour program on Radio Shanghai of China with an audience in 13 Asian countries of more than one billion listeners. NBC’s “Today Show” featured McGuire in a story about his work with civil rights groups in his hometown of Farmers Branch. In 1985, he won First Prize in the Dallas Chamber Orchestra Concerto Competition and has judged the Guitar Foundation of America (GFA) International Competitions in Quebec City, Canada; St. Louis, Mo.; San Antonio, and Montréal, Canada. In 2006, he served on the jury of the 14th International Guitar Competition at Fundacíon Alirio Díaz in Carora, Venezuela, where he also performed a lecture/concert on classical and jazz crossover at the home of Maestro Díaz. Four years earlier he presented a similar class at Encuentro Antonio Lauro in Santa Ana, Venezuela. He has been invited to present numerous master classes and lecture demonstrations at universities such as Arizona State University, the Juilliard School in New York, Alaska Pacific University and at the GFA. He has studied with or performed
in master classes for several of the world’s foremost guitarists including Andrés Segovia, Oscar Ghiglia, Pepe Romero, Robert Guthrie and José Tomás. He received full scholarships to Southern Methodist University on the recommendation of Robert Guthrie and to the Aspen Music Festival on the recommendation of Oscar Ghiglia. In the summers of 1980-82, he had both classes and private lessons with the Spanish composer Federico Moreno-Torroba. Blues master Stevie Ray Vaughn, a regular in the McGuire family music room in the early 1970s, taught McGuire to play the blues in weekly jam sessions. McGuire taught for 25 years at several colleges and universities, including the University of Dallas and North Lake College. He now devotes most of his time performing, conducting the artistic activities of the FWCGS and the AGSD and spending time with his father. Mak Grgic has been invited to venues worldwide, including the Sandpoint Festival with the Spokane Symphony; the Allegro Guitar Series in Texas; the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and the Newman Center for the Performing Arts, Denver, in performance with the Assad Brothers and cello super-star Joshua Roman for Strings on Fire. Also, Strathmore Hall in North Bethesda, Md.; Pepperdine University as a guest of Christopher Parkening; Portland Classical Guitar; Guitar Festival Mikulov; Piran Music Nights and The Sounds of Six Strings, and Cankarjev Dom, Slovenia.

Separate, they set out to capture the American Indian in their native setting and completed numerous paintings, of which many were portraits of the Indian “where they stood.” In the days before photography (the early 1830s,) the two explorers captured the primitive people for history to see as well as detailed written accounts of who the people were, their politics, their history and their dreams.
Coleman will explain the relevance, timeliness and the historical significance of those who came before them, such as Lewis and Clark in the early 1800s, and those who came after them, such as Edward Curtis in the late 1890s and early 1900s. He will also discuss how these different time periods impact what explorers found when they arrived. Coleman, in turn, has used

What a wonderful weekend as the whole world celebrated the lives of past and deceased service men and women on Veterans Day. Seems like it was really, really grand this year. More people took part in some way to step up and remember to say “thank you” to the veterans. Where has this year gone? Folks shopping in stores are surprised to see so many Christmas decorations. If you want that special gift, you better get it soon as these few weeks will fly by quickly. The fall autumn colors are slow in coming to our countryside. Cypress trees are just now starting and oak trees are just showing a bit of color. The only trees showing color are the sumac. There is a promise of freezing temperatures this week for our area.

The public is invited to a self-defense presentation by Vickie Arnold. The club is also encouraging everyone to wear orange from Nov. 25 to Dec. 10 as these represent the “16 Days of Activism”. The 16 Days Campaign has been used as an organizing strategy by individuals and groups around the world to call for the elimination of all forms of violence against women by: • Raising awareness about gender-based violence as a human rights issue at the local, national, regional and international levels; • Strengthening local work around violence against women; • Establishing a link between local and international work to end violence against women; • Providing a forum in which organizers can develop and share new and effective strategies; • Demonstrating the solidarity of women around the world organizing against violence against women; • Creating tools to pressure governments to implement promises made to eliminate
violence against women. The local Zonta Club hopes to join forces with the international club to share their activities on social media networks and have a “resounding impact” on violence against women in the world, said a spokesman for the Fredericksburg club.

EDUCATION FMS GT sudents visit ACC, learn about TV newscasts By Richard Zowie Last year, the Fredericksburg Middle School Gifted and Talented Program’s eighth graders visited KXAN, an NBC affiliate, in Austin for a behind-the-scenes look at the world of television. This year’s eighth graders on Nov. 1 took another TV trip, this time to Austin Community College’s Northridge Campus. They visited the studio where ACC films its local news broadcasts and where the community college’s students learn to work the equipment. Leading the group was Kim
BEHIND THE SCENES — Ryan Davis looks ready for a career in TV broadcasting. Davis was one of many FMS GT students who went to Austin Community College on Nov. 1 to learn more about how a TV newscast operates.
Zuberbueler, the FMS librarian who also works with the GT students. “Last year, the eighth grade GT students organized a couple of news broadcasts for the school,” Zuberbueler said. “I wanted to expand what they started and teach the students some real world applications with the news broadcasts.” Charles Malinak, who works in the Fredericksburg Independent School District technology department, helped Zuberbueler organize the broadcasts last year. He met Laura DiMeo (an instructor in ACC’s radio, television and film program) last spring at the Hill Country Film Festival and felt she would be a valuable resource, so the FMS librarian contacted DiMeo. “She was very agreeable with working with our schedule to have students come to their campus,” Zuberbueler said. “She arranged to have current ACC students work with our FMS students. All of the students and professors were amazing with our students. They really took the time to make sure that our students understand all aspects of the news broadcasts, and the hands-on experience they gave the students was wonderful.” While Zuberbueler described last year’s visit to KXAN as “wonderful”, she added that the ACC trip was much more hands-on. “We were able to actually work the equipment and film part of our news broadcast while we were at ACC,” she explained. “Students were able to see all of the hard
work and planning that goes into producing even a sevento-eight minute newscast like ours will be. We had to do several ‘takes’ to get things ‘right’ because of a lighting issue, or a ‘talent’ issue, or a graphics issue. All the ‘parts’ have to work together in unison for the audience.” The students learned about audio, lighting, filming and graphics and then were able to choose which aspect interested them the most. They went to that area to work together to record the segment. Some students loved being in front of the camera while, Zuberbueler added, others wanted nothing to do with it and probably preferred working solely behind the scenes. Some of those students, she added, jumped at the chance to work behind the camera to see how it worked. “I really liked how the professors and students at ACC showed the students all aspects of filming a news broadcast, and then based on the student’s interest, they were able to learn more about that area,” Zuberbueler said. “The students learned that every aspect of the production is important. The student who is behind the camera has to do their job, and the audio and graphics team have their part. All parts of the production have to synergize in order make a great broadcast.” Currently, the FMS GT students are completing their first news broadcast that will be shown in all classrooms on the FMS campus. Zuberbueler expects it will be completed by early next week. For this broadcast, the stu-
Willow City holds meeting, reelects officers
WE SEE YOU! — Troy Kneese, left, and Zachary Willis learn how to operate a TV camera. FMS librarian Kim Zuberbueler, who heads the GT program, took the kids on a field trip to a TV station and learned that some kids preferred working behind the scenes. dents have been responsible for filming their parts, interviewing teachers, taking pictures at events and editing the pieces of the broadcast together. “I have been so impressed with this group and their work ethic,” Zuberbueler said. “I can tell that they really want our news broadcast to look very professional.” The students may indeed make another trip to Aus-
tin. Zuberbueler added that the ACC professors were so impressed with the FMS students that they would like to work with them on another project next semester. Among the ideas: film. Among the criteria for qualifying for the FMS GT program are grades, State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness scores and testing in several areas from IQ to creativity.
The Willow City Community Club met Friday, Nov. 1, at the Willow City School Building/Community Center. At the meeting, the following club officers were reelected: Christy Crooks Jaster, president; Adrienne Althaus Jaramillo, vice president; Mable Schneider Wilke, secretary-treasurer, and Raynell Wilke, hospitality chairman. During the meeting, plans were made for the club’s annual family night Christmas gathering to be held on Friday, Dec. 6, and the Willow City School/Community Center. The social will begin at 6 p.m. with the covered dish meal being served at 6:30 p.m. Games of “42” dominoes will be played after the meal. Families are asked to bring a main dish and either a side dish or a dessert. Attendees are asked to bring nonperishable food items to donate to the Fredericksburg Food Pantry. The group meets monthly on the first Friday evening. Guests and new members are welcome. The 2014 annual membership dues of $10 per adult will be collected starting in January. For more information about the Willow City Community Club or the rental of the building, call 830-6853385.

COMMENTARY COMMENTARY Skate park a needed facility for local youth Private fundraising effort will boost recreational offerings for area’s kids
S
aturday’s skate board and BMX demonstration and competition had the Adelsverein Halle on Marktplatz abuzz with activity. Working off some restless adolescent energy, skateboarders and bikers performed feats that seemed to defy the laws of physics. Adult onlookers winced at the occasional falls that are part of the sport, but they marveled at the athleticism and coordination of the kids. Kudos to the Fredericksburg Morning Rotary Club for spearheading this important project that will bring another firstclass recreational activity to our town. If there is one complaint among young people about the town, it is that activities geared toward them are in short supply. This will certainly help. This project also is not simply a couple of ramps bolted to cement. The permanent, multi-bowl facility will cover much of the 24,000-square-foot lot north of the Boys and Girls Club of Fredericksburg. The total cost of this first-class project — as nice as those found in large cities — will be between $400,000 and $450,000. But the great thing is that taxpayers will not pay a cent. The club has already privately raised, or been promised, about 60 percent of that amount. And Saturday’s event was just the beginning of raising awareness about the project. The park also will offer a recreational activity where youth who are old enough
can be dropped off while their parents browse on Main Street. Its future location will be just a few blocks from the busy business district of downtown. Fundraising was a secondary concern on Saturday. The event was put on to lift the veil off the project, and to show that skateboarding is a legitimate sport with a “clean” image. Saturday, we saw cooperation between the skateboarders, parents, police and neighbors. Seventy youth signed up for the competition portion of the event, but more than 200 attended to check it out, including kids from San Antonio and neighboring towns. We encourage those who are able to pitch in and help get this skate park constructed. As organizers stated, the park will be “competition-ready,” meaning the town has another attraction for a different visitor demographic. It also will likely be one of the nicer parks in the Hill Country, if not the entire state. We offer praise to Morning Club Rotarian Susan Kimbrell and youth minister Kelly Graham of Hill Country Evangelical Free Church for taking the reins on this project. It is a needed addition in a town full of recreational activities for adults. As the saying goes, “if your town doesn’t have a skate park, your town is a skate park.” FREDERICKSBURG, TEXAS SKATE PARK For more information about the project, or to find out how to donate, contact Marc or Cindy Bennett at 830-739-3599, or mail to 409 N. Milam (Bennett’s offices). Also, readers may email Susan Kimbrell at susank158@ yahoo.com.
Property rights, property values Proposed city ordinance means RV, boat owners need to find a space for them
A
sk any visitor to town — and there are more than 1.2 million of them each year — and they’ll tell you they like Fredericksburg because it is a “clean, orderly” town. Junker vehicles and permanently stationed trailers, recreational vehicles and boats detract from that perception. We find the mayor’s caution in “not wanting to create a city-wide homeowner’s association” appealing, to paraphrase him from a recent meeting. Still, there is a fine line between balancing one person’s “property rights” or “liberty” with creating a neighborhood eyesore. The city is currently reviewing a proposed ordinance that would disallow the parking of recreational vehicles, trailers and boats without a proper surface or screening. We do think there should be an allowance
for short-term livestock trailers, as mentioned by one person petitioning the council for a more lenient rule. Likewise, there could be allowances made for construction and remodeling projects that may require additional time to be completed. But we also believe, where the permanent parking of those is concerned, that “anything goes” should be gone. City ordinances exist for a reason. While Fredericksburg’s rules may seem more strict than other town’s codes, Fredericksburg also attracts a lot more visitors, in part, for that very reason. Pride in appearance is a big part of the appeal. That’s why temporary garage sale signs and the like, which become permanent fixtures in some locales, are not allowed. The bottom line is that people who choose to purchase a recreational vehicle or boat should make allowance for its storage, so it does not become a neighborhood fixture. That’s a responsibility that homeowners have to their neighbors.

verybody’s familiar with fortune cookies, right? They’re those doubled-over treats we get at the end of the meal in a Chinese restaurant. Back in the day, the cookie would contain a slip of paper that had a fortune written on it (thus the name “fortune” cookies). “You’ll meet a mysterious person in the near future” might have been one of the offerings. Or maybe, “Be careful on your next adventure.” Whether the “fortune” related to an impending encounter with a new love or a gang of muggers in the parking lot was always unclear. But it set you up for an event of some sort in the near future; that is, if you believed in the accuracy of fortune cookies. For me, the fortunes in fortune cookies have been about as reliable (or, unreliable) as the daily horoscopes. But I still enjoy them for the entertainment value. Lately, however, it seems that fortune cookies don’t give your fortune, but, rather, they present you with some sort of lecture. My wife and I have noticed this trend in the last few years when we’ve eaten at some of our favorite Chinese restaurants. Instead of some insight into what’s right around the corner, chronologically speaking, we were exposed to something not quite in the “fortunes” category. For example, one cookie read: “Speak only well of people and

Out Loud By Danny Hirt
you need never whisper.” Now, while that’s good advice, it’s not exactly what I’d call a fortune. Maybe these somewhat sweet treats ought to be renamed “lecture cookies.” It might be more accurate. Other fortune cookies told us: •“You have an ability to sense and know higher truth.” •“An optimist is the human personification of spring.” •“Any idea seriously entertained tends to bring about the realization of itself.” •“Absence sharpens love, but presence strengthens it.” •“As you slide down the banister of life, may the splinters never point your way.” These are fortunes? I don’t think so. (But I did get a chuckle from that last one.) Since all of the fortunes came with smiley faces on them (as well as suggested “lucky” lottery numbers), I’m sure the author(s) meant no harm. They were just filling up small pieces of paper before sticking them into fortune cookies. But, still, these aren’t fortunes; they’re suggestions or encouragements; platitudes, if you will. I thought a little bit of research into the fortune cookie’s background might be warranted, so I consulted some of my more reliable sources.
I learned that, ironically, the sweet morsel we associate with Chinese cuisine was, in all probability, actually from Japan. You’d be hard pressed to find fortune cookies in Beijing, for example. While the cookie may have been from Japan, it is nowadays overwhelmingly made in the United States. More than three billion of the delights are manufactured in America every year. The oriental connection to fortune cookies could have been popularized during the ending days of World War II when many service personnel were being processed in San Francisco. The City by the Bay had many Chinese restaurants and bakeries that were making, and serving, what were then called “fortune tea cookies.” As the military people returned to their homes around the country, they started asking their local Chinese restaurants for fortune cookies. And the rest, as they say, is history. (I wonder if there was ever made a fortune cookie that said “There’s big dough coming soon in these cookies?”) But in the end, a fortune cookie is designed to be a minor bit of entertainment as a light sweet after a meal. So I don’t think there should be a federal investigation or anything like that. Let’s just get back to more “fortunes” and less lectures. That’s my fortune, and I’m sticking to it! danny@fredericksburgstandard.com

Is there a fortune cookie in your future? Why, yes
an’s inhumanity to man never ceases to amaze and disgust me. For decades, I have allowed myself to be deluded into thinking that this wonderful country in which we live has an abundance of tolerance, grace and dignity and that those traits manifest themselves most appropriately and necessarily in the halls of government. Nah. Today we see some of our leaders expressing themselves in ways that are discouraging, demoralizing and totally unacceptable to a supposedly civilized population. Frankly, we Americans have allowed extremists to kidnap our national discourse and to direct the tone of dialogue and debate to the point of creating a volatile atmosphere. Now, let’s stop right here and reiterate something — civilized dissent and dialogue are the correct and accepted manner of public affairs debate in this country. And, the ballot box is the ultimate arbiter for the conduct of those affairs. Voting in Congress — after responsible, measured and informed debate — is the great American lesson in democracy for the world. It should not matter what political initial is after your
Writer’s Roost By Willis Webb name — that wonderful U.S. attitude of fairness via one man, one vote should direct our national discourse. Unfortunately, that direction has been derailed in the recent vitriolic verbal upheaval over health care. No matter where you stand on this critical matter — made perhaps much more controversial than it should be — it has been completely politicized and used as a truncheon to batter the “other side” in any forum. Let’s take one narrow segment of the overall prattling — social networks on the Internet. This is a good example of the plethora of misconception, misdirection and misinformation assaulting the collective public mind. There are strict rules in the world of newspapers, particularly in the community segment of publishing, that prevent falsehoods that seem to flood social media sites. Often, it is “wannabe-writer-editorpundit” types that jump in the deep end of that Internet pool
without the lifejacket of truth and validation. But, somehow their little water wings, constantly inflated by anger-filled bursts, keep them afloat. One of the most heated debates in this country in years is over the Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as Obamacare. The two nametags have set off sizzling exchanges between normally sensible, fairminded people. One — ACA — is the official name of the law enacted by Congress and upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court. The other — Obamacare — began as a convenient name for newspaper headline writers and for racists who fan the flames every minute of every day over our first President of AfricanAmerican descent. Public opinion polls indicate that the ACA gets more approval than Obamacare. Yeah, they are one and the same. But, we’ve overcome racism in this country. Haven’t we? A newsman’s opinion is right here in print, for all to see, to measure, weigh and judge. And, to fire away, if you choose, with your words enjoying the World Wide Web’s mask of anonymity.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Keep our guard up
I want to express a big thank you to Herff Jones representative Matt Grochett, and all of the FISD staff that presented our family with the encased letterman jacket in honor of our son, Sam Herrera. There was not a dry eye when Ralf Haldermann “attempted” to present us with the jacket. He told us how much he loved Sam, and I told him through tears that “we really knew that was true.” Please, no one misunderstand. This was not a celebration of how Sam died. It was a celebration of how he lived. Everyone one in that picture (Oct. 30 paper) knew
Keep hunting pictures
I enjoyed last week’s editorial on hunting. Hunting is a part of the Fredericksburg culture, just like farming and ranching, family, religion and schools. I grew up in San Antonio and some of my best childhood memories are from hunting with my family in the Hill Country. Keep the hunting pictures, as they bring back some good memories and create some new ones. Change is not a bad thing, but I am tired of people that move to an area and then try to change it to be just like the area they were trying to get away from. Regards, Ken Sands Houston
Election Day assist
Kudos to the staff at the Fredericksburg Standard-Radio Post for their courtesy and good cheer to a newcomer on Election Day. I’d received my brand spanking new voter registration card by mail, had my photo ID all ready (scary pic that it is) but no idea where Precinct 10 would be found! I walked into the StandardRadio Post offices and the kind folks there had posted the locations for all voting precincts on the front counter. They matched me up with Pat’s Hall, quipping that I might just be able to enjoy a cold longneck and a spin around the dance floor as a reward for having done my civic duty! Off I trundled, down Bowie Street and around the bend to Post Oak. Parking was readily available and the election judges most accommodating. Unlike former Congressman Jim Wright, who was turned away for his expired driver’s license, mine was current but had the old address. We all got a big chuckle as I filled out yet another form, swearing residence in my new precinct ... answering questions like “have you ever ‘finally’ been convicted of a felony?” Not at all sure what that one was about ... and fortunately was able to leave blank. Anyway, my thanks to all along the trail to a very pleasant voting experience in my new hometown. Lindy Segall Fredericksburg
Parking ordinance
The City Council is planning to adopt an ordinance restricting parking on streets in residential areas and on private residential property. The ordinance would cover work trailers, trucks, utility trailers, boats, travel trailers, motorhomes, farm trailers and tractors. To some people, viewing of any of these vehicles in residential areas is unsightly. Others know that unsightly is defined differently by each of us, or those who hold dear their property rights. Is there room in Fredericksburg to accommodate our various needs as long as they do not infringe on the safe use of
my son on a one-on-one basis. Sam was a good kid with good friends. He stayed out of trouble. He participated in sports. He wanted to do well in school. He had just asked me to find him a math tutor. Sam did all the right things that are supposed to keep kids safe, including practicing his faith in God. This should be a warning to parents and kids that you can never let your guard down. As Sam’s parents, Dave and I have questioned every moment in Sam’s life, and every decision that we made, including moving back to Fredericksburg so our children could grow up where we grew up.
streets and residences? One proposal the Council looked at on Oct. 7 would disallow, other than temporarily, street parking of these vehicles and disallow parking of any of these vehicles on residential property, be it driveways, side, or back yards, if the vehicle could be seen from streets or alleys. If you are concerned about your rights relating to any of the types of vehicles or if you are concerned about how your property can be safely used, it is imperative that you contact the council. At the very least, the council should not act on a parking ordinance of this magnitude without first hearing from those impacted and attempting to develop a compromise that addresses safety and other concerns without causing a major hardship on current residents. If you have construction or work trailers, panel vans or the truck you operate at work, or a utility trailer, boat or any kind of RV or a farm trailer or other vehicle that you need to park at home, act now. This issue is expected to be taken up for vote at the Nov. 18 council meeting. Call the council members or email them at council@fbgtx. org. Sonia Rivero Fredericksburg
Praise for NJROTC
I just returned from a Veterans Day Parade in Kerrville, in which the Naval ROTC unit from Fredericksburg High School marched and was applauded enthusiastically by many along the route through downtown. Your school and the entire community can be extremely proud of these sharp young men and women in their Navy and Marine Corps uniforms. This old infantryman and father of a career Navy officer, stationed in a NATO command in Europe, hopes that they come back every year. Sincerely, Sgt. Joseph Benham, (U.S. Army, ret.) Kerrville
Inserting religion
Do you value your freedom of religion? Do you think it is OK for the Texas State Board of Education, which is a politically elected state board, to require specified religious views related to creation, evolution and the age of earth to be included in the science books that are adopted to be used in Texas public schools? I am a lifelong Methodist and retired public school principal. It is my belief that the science textbooks used in the public schools of Texas should include the best scientific information available and that religious views and beliefs should not be included. Instruction in religion is the providence of the church and the family, and an act of government to prescribe
But he wasn’t safe. As parents and a community we need to take back what we have lost. We cannot accept drugs in our community, in our homes or anywhere else. I pray to God to give our community the strength to make a difference in our children’s lives and of those struggling with addiction. We love this community. It has been our strength when we were weak. Let us stand together to end what is not OK. David and Tricia Herrera, a.k.a. Sam’s parents Fredericksburg
religious views in a textbook or anywhere should be viewed as a threat to our religious freedom. Many of our Christian churches and members have strong negative opinions when our government acts to intrude into our lives or limit personal freedom, but do not understand that this action of the State Board of Education is an intrusion. This may be due to the fact that some of the religious ideas to be inserted are consistent with their own beliefs. Separating science and religion is both necessary and good. They do not need to be in conflict unless we make it so. We have the value of lessons from history to see that religion has often tried to restrict or limit science with bad results. On Nov. 22, our State Board of Education will make the adoption decisions. What we need is some thinking pastors and concerned public to contact the Board of Education and let them know that insertion of religion into state-adopted science books is potentially damaging to both religion and science and, possibly, is illegal as well.

Cruz stood up to D.C.
In regards to Mr. Arnold’s letter dated Oct. 30, I respectfully disagree with his assertion that Sen. Ted Cruz is the engineer of a locomotive headed for disaster. Mr. Cruz was sent to Washington by Tea Party conservatives to stop the collision course by President Obama and the liberal Democrats that are stealing our liberties both financially and legislatively. As far as defunding the government, Congress controls the purse strings with the ability to fund or defund programs they feel are necessary. I consider the thousands of IRS, ACLU, ACORN, PETA and other agents as non-essential mobs that Obama hired to enforce his liberal agenda. The House Republicans voted to fund all bills with the exception of Obamacare that Harry Reid refused to bring up for a vote. He wanted to blame the GOP for defunding the government. When Mr. Arnold votes to increase the national debt, he is voting for bills loaded with pork that this country can ill afford. We need more legislators like Sen. Cruz to stand up for us and not throw in the towel and say “we lose,” as did John Boehner and some RINO Republicans. Wilbert Huebner Irving, Texas
No ‘redirection’ needed
Two weeks ago, you published a letter from a person who said several things that I found very disturbing. The subject of this letter was Senator Ted Cruz, and I applaud the person for standing up and voicing his opinion on this open forum in the Fredericksburg Standard-Radio Post. The person said that he was a “conservative,” but then complained
about Cruz shutting down the government. What a shock, a freshman senator that wielded his mighty power to shut down the government ... appalling. However, Cruz did only what his constituents had asked him to do, defend the Constitution using what tools he had. And in my view, he was asked to stop or slow down this thing called the Affordable Care Act. He started a filibuster over several hours which, while it admittedly didn’t do much, he did what he told his constituents he would do, and he was constitutionally correct. As to shutting down the government, Cruz offered a possible change on his stance, to which the President responded “I will not negotiate!” Cruz offered two more substantial changes to his stance and the response was the same. There could have been an amicable settlement, but from my point of view, it was the President’s refusal to negotiate, that shut down the government. The letter stated that Cruz must be “educated and redirected.” But when a person is elected, by the people, the education of that person shouldn’t be in question. The author of those words, in effect, said, “Cruz doesn’t think like I do, so it must be wrong.” This seems to be the beliefs of today, on both sides of the aisle, and this is wrong. Elias Rodriquez Fredericksburg
Study candidates
Local government can be as corrupt as Washington, but we remain apathetic feeling we have no control. No one disagrees we have very little control, but we are giving what little we have away. Is it not time to start the process of making our country, cities and towns the best they can be for the people? Elections come up next year. Now is the time to start learning about your leaders and their records. Dig in a bit so you can make decisions with facts. The days of choosing candidates because they are incumbents or by name and appearance are outdated. The people crave strong government. Take the time to influence others. It’s not just your right, it’s your job. You can never expect a functioning federal government when cities and counties are allowed to operate for the good of a few. How this changes is with you. You are the catalyst. You are the change. Do one thing to change the course of this country. Make it your job. I just tried to do what I’ve described and failed enormously. To help turn the course of my failure, I’m volunteering for respectful candidates next year and watching their records to see what will make for a solid base. These people, the people you elect and train, will be the help we need to make America great again. Susan Graef Kerrville

Attorney General sues over EEOC hiring rules Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott on Nov. 4 announced he had filed a lawsuit challenging guidelines issued by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission that “limit the ability of employers — including the State of Texas and its agencies — from categorically excluding convicted felons from employment,” he said. Abbott said the hiring guide-
State Capitol Highlights By Ed Sterling TEXAS PRESS ASSOCIATION
lines the EEOC adopted in 2012 “prohibit Texas and its agencies from excluding convicted felons for certain jobs.” In the lawsuit, Abbott alleges the guidelines are unlawful because they overstep the fed-
eral agency’s statutory authority “and improperly bully the State and its agencies into jeopardizing the safety of Texans.” Abbott seeks a declaratory judgment that the state and its agencies “are entitled to maintain and enforce state laws and policies that absolutely bar convicted felons — or a certain category of convicted felons — from government employment;
a declaration that the EEOC cannot enforce its guidelines against the State — and an injunction that bars the EEOC from issuing right-to-sue letters to persons seeking to pursue this type of discrimination charge against the State or any of its agencies; and a judgment holding unlawful and setting aside the EEOC’s hiring guidelines.”
50 YEARS AGO In The Standard NOVEMBER 13, 1963 The 1963 big game hunting season opens Saturday, Nov. 16, in Gillespie County. Game biologists who took census counts of the deer population several weeks ago, report that the 1963 deer crop across Gillespie as well as virtually every area across the state is at the highest it has ever been. Game Warden Ad. Heep reported the issuance of 15,673 doe tags, and also reminded landowners that anyone who plans to lease their lands for hunting must have a shooting preserve license before the season opens. The licenses can be picked up at either the County Clerk’s office or Probst Hardware. Veterans of all wars were paid tribute Monday morning during a Veterans Day program at the Courthouse Park. Representatives from all three veterans’ organizations participated. Approximately two-thirds of all state, county and school taxes were paid during October, the first collection month for taxes, according to Gillespie County Tax Assessor-Collector Milton Durst. A thunderstorm that produced an inch of rainfall in 15 minutes Friday morning, sent creeks and the Pedernales River on their highest rises of the year.
Wanda Lois Crenwelge, bride-elect of Alton Reeh, was feted with a bridal shower Sunday at the Country Diner. The couple will be married Nov. 30 at St. Anthony Catholic Church in Harper. Three babies, all boys, were born in local hospitals during the past week to Mr. and Mrs. Darrell Lee Holmes, Harper, Nov. 9; and Mr. and Mrs. Albert Kast and Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Weiershausen, both on Nov. 11. The Fredericksburg High School Hillbillies and the Coleman Bluecats sloshed to a 6-6 tie in ankle-deep mud in Coleman Friday night with both scores coming in the final two minutes of play. The Billies close out their season Friday night against Brady in the last game on the Fredericksburg High School football field. Next year’s games will be played on the new football field nearing completion at the FHS campus. The St. Mary’s Indians were victorious Saturday night when they defeated the St. Anthony Yellowjackets from San Antonio, 14-8, during the Homecoming game for the Indians. During St. Mary’s Homecoming dance at the Turner Hall, Annabel Scott and Edward Weber were crowned queen and king, respectively, of this year’s celebration.

Jim leaves behind his loving wife of 49 years, Marcia; son, Darren and his wife, Melissa, and two grandchildren, Dakin and Kasch of Pflugerville, Texas; and son, David and his finance, Dawn Willis, of Lewisville, Texas. Jim was preceded in death by his son, Damian, Flower Mound, Texas; mother, Marion, father, Edwin, of Creve Coeur, Illinois; and his sister, Sandy Drewitz Stetson of St. Charles, Missouri. Jim was very proud of his German heritage. Both families on his mother’s and father’s side immigrated to the United States in the late 1800’s and settled in the soil rich farming communities of central Illinois. Jim was born May 13, 1943, in Creve Coeur, Illinois, and went to high school in Peoria, Illinois at Spalding Institute. He excelled in academics and played football and baseball. He lettered in both football and baseball his junior and senior years and garnered all-district and all-state honors in football. Jim went to college at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota, graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree in Advertising and Journalism. During his senior year in college Jim met and fell in love with his soul mate, Marcia and got married in 1964. After a couple of years of working in the advertising industry in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Bloom Advertising in Dallas recruited Jim as copywriter and he and Marcia moved to North Texas. Jim was a consummate entrepreneur and was owner of a marketing, advertising and public relations agency for over 35 years. Jim and Marcia had three sons who shared their love of Texas … the family travelled and enjoyed every region of the state. Of the 254 counties in Texas, Jim estimated he has travelled to and through 248. A dedicated family man, Jim and his family camped, fished, boated on most of the lakes in North and East Texas as well as hiked and camped in New Mexico and Colorado. Jim was also heavily involved in his sons’ sporting activities, including coaching or assisting coaching them in tennis, soccer, basketball, football and baseball. He and his sons fished and hunted all over the state of Texas and his family loved to ski New Mexico and Colorado. Jim was a passionate tennis player, playing in a variety of leagues, including local and USTA leagues while living in North Texas. An avid water fowler, Jim duck and goose hunted all over the state with his Labrador retrievers. He also enjoyed deer hunting in Texas, New Mexico, Montana, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri and Illinois. Jim’s avocation was land and game management. Jim and Marcia always had a fondness for the Texas Hill Country and in 1997 bought their ranch in Doss, Texas. In 2009, they built their current home sitting on a ridgeline overlooking the Doss Valley. Jim was a member of the Doss Volunteer Fire Department, Doss Community Club and the 30-06-4-H club. He was a member of the Fredericksburg Tennis Association. Jim also sat on the Board of Directors of Friends of Lady Bird Golf Course; was a member of Lady Bird Johnson Super Senior Men’s Golf Association, member of Pioneer Museum, member of Pedernales Creative Arts Alliance and a volunteer at Oktoberfest. Jim touched many lives in the Fredericksburg area with his constant upbeat attitude, unfailing determination and fighting spirit to battle his cancer. Jim was blessed and always thankful for the many people who cared and prayed for him daily. Jim treasured the present. He was grateful for everyday in the now. He lived in the moment. His guiding principle was the past was over and couldn’t be changed and the future was imagined. His laugh and friendly smile was infectious and will forever be remembered. Cancer took his body but it never conquered his spirit, his legacy, his devotion and love of life, his family and many friends. “What will you give when death knocks at your door? The fullness of my life – The sweet wine of autumn days and summer nights, My little hoard gleaned through the years, And hours rich with living. These will be my gifts, When death knocks at my door.” Arrangements and direction by the Schaetter Funeral Home of Fredericksburg. Expressions of sympathy may be sent at www.schaetter.com.

Currently, Meek ministers through Moving Forward Ministries where she speaks what God has taught her and shares her gift of singing. Meek lives in Fredericksburg, and is married to Michael Meek, campus minister of Oak Hills Church, Fredericksburg campus.

VA announces dental plan sign-up for vets Beginning Friday, Nov. 15, individuals interested in participating in VA’s Dental Insurance Program (VADIP) may complete an application online, over the phone or by mail. A direct link to each provider’s VADIP webpage will be available from www.va.gov/ healthbenefits/VADIP. Coverage under VADIP begins Jan. 1, 2014 and will be provided throughout the United States and its territories. The initial participation period will be at least 12 calendar months. Afterward, VADIP beneficiaries can renew their participation for another 12-month period or be covered month to month, as long as the participant remains eligible for
coverage and VA continues VADIP. Multiple plan options will allow participants to select a plan that provides benefits and premiums that meet their dental needs and budget. The offered plans vary and may include diagnostic, preventative, surgical, emergency and endodontic/restorative treatment. Each participant will pay a fixed monthly premium for coverage, in addition to any copayments required by his or her plan.

Farmers, ranchers votes urged to vote in committee elections Voters with mailed ballots facing Dec. 2 deadline to return decisions on county leaders
HER FIRST BUCK — The keen aim of Addison Schoessow, 6, daughter of Chris and Gayle Schoessow of Fredericksburg, brought down her first buck while hunting with her father on a family friend’s ranch in Frio County around 7:30 a.m., Sunday, Nov. 3. The white-tailed deer had a 10-point rack, measuring 17.5 inches wide and scoring a 119 3/8 on the Boone and Crockett scale. Field dressed, it measured in at 180 pounds.
USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) Administrator Juan M. Garcia announced that the 2013 FSA County Committee Elections began on Nov. 4 with the mailing of ballots to eligible voters. The deadline to return the ballots to local FSA offices is Dec. 2. “The role and input of our county committee members is more vital than ever at a time when our country faces important choices regarding the funding and operation of our government,” said Garcia. He said, “New county committee members provide input and make important decisions on the local administration of disaster and conservation programs. With better participation in recent years, we have also seen promising increases in the number of women and minority candidates, helping to better represent the richness of American agriculture.” County committee members are an important component
of the operations of FSA and provide a link between the agricultural community and USDA, Garcia said. He explained that farmers and ranchers elected to county committees help deliver FSA programs at the local level, applying their knowledge and judgment to make decisions on commodity price support programs; conservation programs; incentive indemnity and disaster programs for some commodities; emergency programs and eligibility. FSA committees operate within official regulations designed to carry out federal laws. To be an eligible voter, farmers and ranchers must participate or cooperate in an FSA program. A person who is not of legal voting age, but supervises and conducts the farming operations of an entire farm may also be eligible to vote. Agricultural producers in each county submitted can-

oys for Tots began in 1947 when Major Bill Hendricks, and a group of Marine Reservists in Los Angeles, collected and distributed 5,000 toys to needy children. The idea came from Bill’s wife, Diane. That fall, Diane handcrafted a Raggedy Ann doll and asked Bill to deliver the doll to an organization which would give it to a needy child at Christmas. When Bill determined that no such agency existed, Diane told Bill that he should start one.
e did. Toys for Tots was so successful that the U.S. Marine Corps adopted it in 1948 and expanded it into a nationwide campaign. That year, Marine Corps Reserve units across the nation conducted Toys for Tots campaigns in every community in which a Marine Reserve Center was located. The Marines have conducted toy drives each year since then.

‘Passing The Torch’ Passing The Torch Good afternoon. I am very appreciative for the opportunity to make a few remarks on a day of such significance to all Americans. Today is a day that we set aside to honor all of the men and women, from the past and in the present, who have donned the cloth of our Nation and defended our way of life. It is not an exaggeration to say, that we owe a debt that can never be fully repaid to these brave Americans, who were willing to sacrifice so much so that others might enjoy the blessings of liberty. For those of you who have traveled to other countries around the world, and I know many of you have, you know that what we have in this country is special. The combination of freedom and opportunity and optimism and confidence and compassion and determination and independence and individualism and shared sense of responsibility and destiny and much more … these elements combine to make the United
States of America a very special and unique place in the world. We didn’t become a special and unique place by accident. We still live in a world where you have to carve out what you are and who you are, then you’ve got to dig in and defend it against others, who for any number of reasons, would like to take what is yours or change your way of life. In fact, as you well know, one of the first and more important responsibilities of our national government, as set forth in our constitution, is to provide for the common defense. For more than two centuries, millions of Americans have stepped forward to defend our nation against all enemies, foreign and domestic. And because of their willingness to serve, and in many cases sacrifice, we have been able to provide for the common defense, which in turn underwrites our ability to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and
The Words We Use MINNIE BALL — A bullet that came into prominence during the American Civil War. It was the prototype of all modern bullets, having a cylindrical body, a flat base and a pointed head. A French Army Captain, Claude Etienne Minnie (1814-1879) was credited with its creation. CRAVAT — A tie or a scarf worn around the throat. With the breakup of the former Yugoslavia, we are again exposed to the names of Bosnia, Serbia, Croatia, etc. It was the Croatian inhabitants who became responsible for the modern tie — after considerable evolution.
The kings and princesses of medieval Europe often supplemented their income by literally renting their armies to the highest bidder. And so it came to pass that during the Thirty Years War (16181648) the Croatian mercenaries served under the French Royal banner. A distinctive part of their uniform was a large scarf of linen, worn loosely around the neck. The French, ever attuned to the latest fashion, quickly adopted the neckwear and named it “cravat” for Croates. In Europe it is still known as a “Kravat.” I haven’t the slightest clue as to what leap of illogic led to calling this accessory a tie.
Cont. from D1 our posterity. It will remain the responsibility of succeeding generations of Americans to step forward and provide for the common defense — that common defense that is the very foundation upon which our house of liberty, justice and tranquility is built. As you heard earlier, my last position on active duty was to command the Air Education and Training Command. The command has broad responsibilities, one of the most important of which is to execute basic military training for the Air Force. We do that right here in San Antonio and Lackland Air Force Base. One of my last official acts was to serve as the reviewing officer for the graduation parade that takes place every Friday. As part of this event I made some comments to the newest members of the Air Force. I first asked all the veterans in the audience to stand, and there were many of them, and then I pointed to the huge flag that flies on the Lackland parade field. I told our newest Airmen

FEZ — A cap commonly worn of red felt material, conical in shape, flattened at a narrowing top and adorned with a long black tassel. No mid-east based Hollywood movie would be “authentic” unless the villain appears wearing such a head gear. JERSEY — A soft, knit fabric used in the manufacture of clothes. Its tendency of clinging to the body makes it particularly flattering to the female body. The fabric was originally woven from the wool of sheep in the island of Jersey, in the English channel and worn as a sweater by its fishermen.

that that flag flies today over a free land and a free people because those veterans who were standing among them were willing to sacrifice all for the common defense. I then reminded them that the last verse of our National Anthem is not a statement, but a question. A question that asks, does that flag, that flag that represents all that we hold dear, does that flag yet waive over the land of the free and the home of the brave. That verse if posed as a question so that we never forget that we have that is special and unique in this country is not something that we are guaranteed, it is something that we must earn. I told our young Airmen that those who came before them ensured that the answer to that question was a resounding yes when they guarded our nation’s borders and stood watch over our way of life. And now it is up to them, the next generation of American fighting men and American fighting women, to carry the torch forward and answer the question before
passing the torch to those who will follow. As I reflect on the meaning of Veterans Day, it strikes me that in addition to providing a specific time to honor those who have served and are serving this great nation of ours, that this is also a time to reinvigorate our commitment to ensuring that this remains the land of the free and the home of the brave, that the torch burns brightly as we pass it from one generation to the next, that the answer to the all important question posed in our nation’s anthem is a resounding yes that echoes from sea to shining sea. I would like to conclude my remarks today by paraphrasing a very famous passage from a speech delivered some 2,500 years ago by the leader of Athens as he paid tribute to the veterans of this nation who had fallen battle. The leader’s name was Pericles and he said, in part, that all that was good about Athens was made possible by men who knew their duty and had the courage to do it, who were willing to sac-
rifice all for the common good, and in so doing they won that prize that never grows old, that prize being the gratitude of a forever grateful nation that will never forget that it owes all to its heroes. With that said, may I ask our veterans to stand so that we might present you with that prize that never grows old, and that is our undying gratitude for keeping this the land of the free because you were and are so very brave. ________ Rice graduated from the U.S. Air Force Academy in 1978, and has commanded a squadron, group, wing, the Air Force Recruiting Service, two numbered air forces and a joint command.

situations, which can keep you out of legal trouble when you’re dealing with a real estate transaction. A Texas REALTOR® will not only help you complete the required forms, he knows how to use them to comply with relevant rules and regulations. To have more success Studies consistently show that sellers who work with a REALTOR® sell their homes faster, for more money and have fewer hiccups along the way than those who choose to sell by themselves. In fact, HomeGain’s 2012 survey of sellers who used either a REALTOR® or attempted to sell their home themselves found that homeowners who used a REALTOR® were more than twice as likely to be successful than sellers who did not.

Central Hill Country Board of REALTORS® To sell your home faster Selling a home quickly takes more than just putting a sign in the yard and posting it online.

The best way to save money, time and avoid stress when selling your home Sure, it’s true that you can successfully sell your home on your own, but you may find it a long, expensive and stressful process without the help of a Texas REALTOR®. Here are a few reasons why it’s best to use a Texas REALTOR® to sell your home. To get the best deal Do you know how much comparable properties in your area recently sold for? What about their average number of days on the market? Well, a Texas REALTOR® will know these stats and much more. He will use his knowledge and resources to help you determine the best listing price based on your home’s features and the current housing market.

Fall Into Healthy Habits This Autumn NewsUSA
(NU) - Just as spring is a time for rebirth, autumn is also considered a transitional season. The weather turns brisk, the leaves on trees change from dull brown to a firestorm of color, and darkness settles in earlier. For many, it is a favorite time of year, but for others it can be a trigger to falling off the health and fitness wagon. After all, how can you be expected to ignore pumpkin spice lattes? The key, say experts, is to set goals before the new year, not over a drink as the clock strikes midnight. “Fall ... is a great time to start a fitness program because you’re going to create good habits for the holiday season and the upcoming winter months,” says Justin Price, owner of Biomechanics, a personal training and wellness coaching facility in San Diego, Calif. The following tips will give you ideas on how to stay healthy (and maybe even avoid the pumpkin cheesecake) through what is arguably one of the most pleasant times of the year: • Head for the hills. Fall is a great time to get outside and explore your own backyard. So, grab a friend and find a local park to walk, run or bike on. If you’re lucky enough to live close to hills or mountains, autumn is a perfect time to go for a hike. • Turn chores into a workout. Raking leaves or gardening burns about 150 calories every 30 minutes, so if you find that you don’t have time for exercise, grab a rake or a hoe, and turn seasonal tasks into a fat-burning workout.
NewsUSA
This fall, make sure your healthy habits carry over.
• Drink plenty of water. Without water, no living thing can survive, which means it is crucial to maintaining optimal health. While water has a myriad of health benefits, research has shown that in order for your body to function properly, it must continuously work to maintain a proper pH, or chemical balance. This, say experts, is why drinking alkaline ionized water such as Alkame Water (www.alkamewater.com) should be an essential part of anyone’s health plan. The mild alkalinity is recommended by doctors because it allows for more effective hydration by supporting an optimal pH-balanced body. Additionally, Alkame is a powerful source of antioxidants, which boost the immune system, while also improving aerobic capacity and enhancing energy levels. • Try something new. Fall is the perfect time to gain new physical skills, says Price. Always wanted to learn to in-line skate or ride a horse? Fall is a great time to explore an activity that you’ve always wanted to try.

The Dream Vacation Tour for Beatlemaniacs If you were one of the 73 million Americans who tuned in to “The Ed Sullivan Show” in 1964 as the Beatles irrevocably changed rock ’n’ roll, prepare yourself for perhaps the perfect vacation idea. Did you embrace Beatlemania and never look back? If the answer is an enthusiastic “Yes,” the CIE Tours’ “Icons of Britain” may knock your Paul-loving socks off. While it’s not quite All Beatles, All The Time, the tour has several other must-sees in London, Scotland and Wales. One big draw is seeing where the Fab Four got their start and recapturing what’s described as “the fevered feel of the early ’60s in Liverpool.” Here’s some of what you’ll see: • The Beatles’ Boyhood Homes. It’s easy to imagine the teenaged Paul and John writing the lyrics to “I Saw Her Standing There” in the living room of the future Sir Paul McCartney’s humble 20 Forthlin Road house. As McCartney recalled: “I’d start off with ‘She was just 17, she’d never been a beauty queen.’ And he’d be like, ‘Oh no, that’s useless.’” • The Cavern Club. Still a live-music venue today, the club hosted the Beatles 292 times. It’s especially packed when a tribute band dons mop-tops and “yeah, yeahs” their hearts out. There was supposed to be a 293rd time—promised by manager Brian Epstein before the group ventured to America—but it never happened. • Jaw-Dropping Castles. You will glimpse inside The Queen’s official residence, Windsor Castle, including recent—and possibly juicy—tidbits from a local tour guide about the goings-on there. Furthermore, a boisterous evening banquet at Cardiff Castle will explain what’s meant by “Welsh hospitality.” • The Beatles Story. Nestled in the heart of Liverpool’s revitalized wharf district, this state-of-the-art attraction includes a behind-the-scenes look at Abbey Road Studios, an underwater trip on the Yellow Submarine and a “Fab 4D” extravaganza that uses the latest technology to bring the group’s music to life. • A Taste of Scotland. Adventurous eaters can enjoy a dinner of Scottish specialties— including the infamous haggis—and a lively show featuring songs, stories and a display of traditional step-dancing. If You Go: The respected CIE Tours has escorted millions of Americans on motorcoach tours of Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales for more than 81 years. For more information on the fully inclusive “Icons of Britain” package, contact your travel agent, or call CIE at 1-800-243-8687 or visit www.cietours.com.

Practice makes perfect? “How long does it take someone to learn drumming well enough to play with a local swing band?” I tried to brush off this modest question from my friend, Kent, but he wouldn’t let me. Apparently, he was serious. “How long?” he insisted. “Assuming average musical talent?” As with many simple questions, I realized there could be no simple answer. My first thought was to fall back on the meme started by Malcolm Gladwell, that 10,000 hours are required to make one a master of any skill. As rules of thumb go, it would serve. But at one hour of practice a day, that would require 27 years — or 38 years if you skip weekends. I assume he did not plan to wait three decades for his next gig. So I took a different angle. After all, to play in a weekend band doesn’t require “mastery.” So I added some limitations. First of all, I decided to focus on one instrument: drums. That alone should knock off about 9,500 hours. We are talking drums, not a real instrument that actually produces melodies. Next we go back to the standard of “well enough.” To me, that means learning to play about three different beats: a waltz, swing and straight rock. You might throw in a Latin beat — a generic one will suffice to fake your way through tangos, salsas and pretty much any Jimmy Buffett tune.

off the stage, and never played with that group again. Age? When asked why he still practiced three hours a day at age 93, Casals said, “I’m beginning to notice some improvement.” Maybe it’s attitude. I had a basketball coach who insisted he could get in more training in an intense 10-minute on-court routine than we could in two hours of casual practice. I’ve found that to be true in learning musical instruments to some extent. Being fully engaged in purposeful practice pays

You don’t have to convince Texas in the summer to drink iced tea. Many of my friends and family drink it year round, in fact. Maybe that is a good thing.

greater dividends than grudgingly doing scales for an hour. At least I think it would, if I ever actually did either one of those. So how long does it take to learn to play drums? I use my favorite quote from Mark Twain: “Ask of the winds that far away with fragments strewed the sea.” In other words: I have no idea. But if you want to play drums with a local swing band, email Kent kent.rylander@mac. com.

simply drinking water, due to the antioxidants the tea provides. Tea may reduce the risk of heart disease, in part by improving circulation. Tea drinkers seem to have more relaxed arteries and less chance of blood clots. Recent research finds that drinking several cups of green tea daily reduces LDL cholesterol levels and improves markers of glucose balance. Another beneficial component of green tea, polyphenols have been linked to reduction in blood pressure, better insulin function and less inflammation, all of which support a healthy heart. Drinking tea protects your teeth and lowers the risk of tooth decay. Tea is a natural source of fluoride, which can strengthen tooth enamel. Some evidence suggests that green tea protects memory cells and helps guard against the development of dementia.

Of course, appearing on shows like these doesn’t guarantee success. “Impossible’s” Irvine has received his share of criticism for occasionally ignoring local food trends and the palates of established clientele in his push to modernize ailing eateries, and many of the restaurants he “improves” do end up going out of business or reverting back to their old menus. That said, for an already desperate business on the brink of bankruptcy, an appearance on a hit TV show is often exactly the boost that it needs, even if the changes made aren’t always the perfect fit. With John Green joining the Food Network family, raise your glass for the premiere of “On the Rocks” the evening of Nov. 17.
President Obama is urging Americans who are having trouble with the Obamacare website to sign up for health care by calling a 1-800 number. The number is 1-800-we-didn’t-think-this-through. There’s been a lot of speculation, but now it’s clear that Joe Biden will run for president in 2016. In an effort to appear presidential, today Biden launched a website that doesn’t work. One of the contractors who built the Obamacare website testified before Congress today. You can tell he built the site because any time they would ask a question, he would freeze.
The Tonight Show: Jay Leno
The president spoke today on the Obamacare website glitches. He said he’s bringing in “the best and the brightest” to solve the problem. Why didn’t he bring in the best and the brightest in the first place? See, this is typical Washington. They only bring in the best and the brightest as a last resort.
A 25-year-old man in New York was arrested for trying to join al-Qaida. Here’s the amazing part: he said it was easier to join al-Qaida using their website than it was to sign up for Obamacare. Here’s my favorite part: The president said yesterday that if it’s taking too long you can bypass the website and enroll by mail. Only the federal government could come up with a website that’s slower than sending something by mail.

Things got screwed up with the health-care website. So you can wait for them to get the site fixed or you can enroll in medical school, graduate and then just take care of yourself, which would probably be faster.
