Several incumbents in the Estancia Valley and East Mountains found that voters were looking for a change.

Here’s a look at local races.

Torrance County Torrance County’s incumbent sheriff will most likely serve another four years.

Sheriff Heath White beat Carlos Joseph Garcia in the Republican primary Tuesday.

With no Democrat opponent for the general election, White will most likely serve as the county’s top cop for another term.

According to unoff icial

results, White garnered 844 votes, or nearly 75 percent of the votes cast, to Garcia’s 288 votes.

Communities join to derail project

City Council holds off on vote until June 11 meeting

A lot has happened in the year since landowners first received notice from Kinder Morgan about the proposed construction of a carbon dioxide pipeline across New Mexico.

The Bureau of Land Management held public meetings, wrapped up the scoping period in late January, and began working on an Environmental Impact Statement. In the meantime, private citizens formed a 77-member Google group “Resistiendo: Resist the Kinder Morgan CO2 Pipeline!”

“We met with Valencia, Socorro, and Catron county residents and met with congressional staff for Sens. (Tom) Udall, (Martin) Heinrich, (Rep. Michelle) Lujan Grisham,” said Susan Bunnell, a Mountainair landowner whose property may be affected by the pipeline.

“The land-grant communities are involved. Probably one of the most exciting things for me is to see how all the different landowners have come together from diverse communities.”

Kinder Morgan wants to construct a 213-mile pipeline transporting carbon dioxide from Apache County, Ariz., to the Cortez pipeline in Torrance County. To do so they will cross state-owned, tribal and federal lands, as well as private property. The company injects carbon dioxide into oil fields in eastern New Mexico and Texas to increase production.

Following a heavily attended public information meeting in January, residents of Mountainair and surrounding areas have been emailing one another, researching pipelines across the country and solidifying their opposition. Community members approached the Partnership for a Healthy Torrance County, who agreed to collaborate with other groups to conduct a Health Impact Assessment.

Prior to the water pipeline, Duran residents used a truck to haul water from the Vaughn water tanks to local cisterns.

A hundred miles from everywhere the once-thriving towns of Vaughn and Duran straddle the Torrance and Guadalupe County line.

Vaughn, a town of 599 residents at the last census, is little more than a couple gas stations, a municipal building and a school along U.S. 60. Duran, a forgotten enclave with only a handful of residents, lies 15 miles southwest in Torrance County.

The boon that the railroads brought to these small towns evaporated when the trains switched to electric power, lessening the need for maintenance workers. Then the wells dried up and families moved away.

“My uncle had wells here in Morino that supplied enough water, but that’s since played out,” said Nazim See HELPING on PAGE 2

The Moriarty City Council held off on approving a fireworks ban within the city at its regular meeting on May 28 despite a letter from Gov. Susana Martinez asking the city to enact a ban.

However, the council will take up the issue again at its June 11 meeting.

Councilors were moved to hold off on a ban by the two permanent fireworks business owners in Moriarty over the objections of Fire Chief Steve Spann.

“My job is to make a recommendation and it’s up to the council to make the decision,” Spann said. “My recommendation is that you enact this ban.”

Spann said that, despite recent rainstorms, the area is still under an extreme drought. He added that the rain makes the situation more dire because the rain makes weeds grow, creating more fuel in case of a fire.

The ban would have forbidden the sale and use of missile-type rockets, helicopters, aerial spinners, stick-type rockets and ground audible devices within the city. A ban would affect Fireworks World Outlet and Wholesale Fireworks — two permanent fireworks stores in Moriarty.

Joe Kyriacou, owner of Fireworks World Outlet, said that a ban enacted during the meeting would essentially kill sales at his business.

“Ninety to 95 percent of our sales are to out-ofstate customers,” he said. “These people aren’t shooting off fireworks here.”

Kyriacou and William Brandon of Wholesale Fireworks argued that it was too early to enact a ban. They both added that they understood the possible fire dangers, but that there is time to enact a ban before the Fourth of July holiday.

Mayor Ted Hart took exception to the governor’s letter, saying that, on the one hand, the state government was pushing municipalities See MORIARTY on PAGE 6

Love pulls a reluctant viewer into screen fantasy

T

he average American watches more than 40 hours of television a week, according to the A.C. Nielson Co. That means we spend as much time in front of a screen watching shows as we do at work.

Doing the math, our daily dose of television — whether watched on an actual television, computer or mobile device — is nearly six hours.

Once again, I find myself below the average. I just don’t watch that much television.

I’m not trying to brag about that — I just find myself doing other things and not having much interest in what I see. It doesn’t help that I’m cheap and refuse to pay for television, so I’m stuck with whatever programming is

I don’t know where she finds the time.)

And then “Game of Thrones” entered our lives.

For those unfamiliar, “Game of Thrones” is an HBO series based on the George R.R. Martin books in “A Song of Ice and Fire” — a sprawling seven-book fantasy series in which each book is at least 1,000 pages long. Apparently, only five of these books have been published and fans are mad that the other two have not been finished. My wife is one of these fans. She loves “Game of Thrones” ... the books and the TV show.

And from what I understand, she isn’t the only one.

I found myself on the outside once again. Five thousand pages of swords and knights and such is daunting to me. The

I’ve read about “Walking Dead” and “Breaking Bad,” and countless others. I’ve even seen a few episodes of these shows, I’ve just never been a loyal fan.

I live with one, though.

My wife has watched all 10 seasons of “Supernatural” and countless other television shows. She is what is commonly known as a “binge watcher.” She will find something she likes and spend her free time for days and weeks watching every episode.

At first, she tried to drag me along on her little mania, but soon found I don’t have the patience. Now she will ask if I want to watch something with her and not be offended if I say no. (I think it should be pointed out that the woman also is a voracious reader. Seriously,

alternative to the huge commitment of reading a genre I don’t much care for is to watch about 40 hours of television produced so far.

I love my wife and occasionally like to talk to her about things in which she is interested. I made a challenge to myself to watch the first three seasons of “Game of Thrones,” which we own on DVD. After making my way through nearly 30 hours of “Game of Thrones” in the past couple of weeks, I’ve come to a conclusion as to what it is about — nudity, violence and the violent death of all the good guys.

Like most fans of the books and show, my wife won’t tell me what will happen. So I watch, convinced that, if there is a character I like, he or she will soon die a violent

death and the bad guys continue to be bad guys.

When I ask if any of them will meet the same sort of end, my wife will give a knowing shrug indicating that she will not tell me.

I feel stuck. I’ve been tricked into watching something that is compelling enough to keep me interested, but I’ve got a feeling that maybe an old episode of the “Mary Tyler Moore Show” should have been my choice instead. Sure it’s fluffy and predictable, but it’s a lot better than the Red Wedding in which ...

Wait, I’m not supposed to tell you what happens. I guess you’ll have to watch it for yourself.

Helping Duran puts strain on Vaughn from PAGE 1

Hindi, born and raised in Duran. “Sometime in the ’60s the well just played out and that was it, Duran was totally out of water and there is no water in this area. I guess it’s kind of like Vaughn — the closest aquifer is in Encino.”

Since the demise of the wells, Duran has depended on a pipeline intersecting the line from Encino to Vaughn, but Roman Garcia, the mayor of Vaughn, has concluded the system will not be sustainable without aid from Torrance County.

Since he was elected mayor in March, Garcia has advocated for a joint powers agreement with the county to subsidize the water system, improve the access road to the pumps and pitch in for repairs.

Neighbors helping neighbors

In the 1960s, Hindi said, the National Guard gave Duran an old 1,000-gallon tank truck and residents took turns hauling water from Vaughn to individual cisterns. The truck carted water for a decade before aid finally came from the state in the 1970s, Hindi said.

“Roberto Mondragón (Bruce King’s lieutenant governor) contacted someone here; maybe it was Sam. He said, ‘I understand you’re having water problems’ and it had been maybe 10 years without water up to us having to haul it,” Hindi said.

“So he said let’s have a meeting, and I’ll listen to you guys. It wasn’t two weeks he was gone, and he got what was left in the pork barrel — $20,000 and I think another $20,000 from the next year. He got a state engineer to design the system, the money bought the pipe and the trenching, and he got Torrance County to cover the ditch, but all the people here had to do all the maintenance, digging out, putting the pipe in. We made an association then because we had to have an entity for the money to be granted to someone.”

Vaughn metered the line and charged the residents of Duran for their usage.

“But several years later the system was broke, we couldn’t pay Vaughn for the water,” Hindi said. “Everybody was sending out bills, and everyone had a Kids’ services minimum so everyone was paying the merit recognition minimum but using more water. No one was reading the meters, we didn’t have Torrance County a meter reader, we didn’t have anything Children’s Services like that, maintenance was done at that time by whoever. We went broke, we See NEWS on PAGE 11 didn’t know what to do.”

About 12 years ago, the Vaughn Town Council agreed to take over the water system completely, and their workers read the roughly 20 meters in Duran. However, now it’s Garcia who’s saying his town is going broke.

“We don’t mind but we undertook more than we can handle,” Garcia said. “We weren’t even taking care of our own. We bit more than we could chew because we weren’t even chewing our own. We bring the water 26 miles to here and our first priority is here. At the time they gave water to Duran they weren’t even taking care of this right here. They took over something that they couldn’t really do justice to fully without the funding needed.”

While Garcia said he knows Vaughn is subsidizing the cost of transporting water to Duran, the administration is still working on coming up with the exact figures to show by how much they’re running short.

“We have some straightening out to do, and that’s what we’re doing,” he said.

“That way we will have financial reports we can show you this is what it will cost us, this is what we spent on Duran. And then you have to do a judgement of the gasoline it takes, the wear and tear on pickups. We know enough to know its far from paying for itself. We know the revenues we get from there don’t pay for what we spend to maintain it.”

Absence of a paper trail Garcia, who compares Vaughn’s relationship to Duran to an uncle helping out a nephew, said while the towns have many interweaving familial and community relationships, a formal agreement about the water pipeline does not exist.

“Several factors came into play,” he said. “The leadership didn’t know how to set up a process about a joint powers agreement and what they could face by

not doing it right. Vaughn actually has, in all truth, been lenient because if you don’t even have the revenue to pay for your own ... you owe loyalty to the residents and whatever you can do outside is fine.”

Both Hindi and Garcia say they doubt any paperwork was drawn up after the meeting when the Vaughn Town Council agreed to take ownership of the water system. If the paperwork does exist, no one knows where to find it.

“One of my goals was to set up Duran’s water rights to where we can have paperwork subsequent to my tenure,” he explained. “It’s not just for four years if I stay four years as a mayor. There are going to be people living in Duran, and they need water. If it’s set up right it goes on, it transfers on.”

The road to the future Duran is unincorporated so it is dependant on Torrance County as a fiscal agent, and the community cannot receive funding directly from the state or federal government.

County Manager Joy Ansley said she discussed the water system with the towns in 2006 when damage to the line made it unusable for a couple weeks but was not told there was a financial issue.

“When the community was out of water, as previously mentioned, I did speak to the citizens of the community, to the mayor of Vaughn and to the county commission about working toward their own water system,” Ansley said. “Everybody expressed satisfaction with the current system, so I didn’t proceed with working toward another arrangement. We’ve never been contacted about financial loss

by Vaughn, until Mayor Garcia began approaching us a couple months ago.”

Garcia’s first request to the county commissioners is to improve the access road to the pumps. Ansley said in an email the county has committed to improving the road and hopes to start this week.

Commissioner LeRoy Candelaria said he asked for $10,000 for the water system on the Infrastructure Capital Improvement Plan that goes before the New Mexico Legislature in January. The money could be used for improvements or to replace the pipe, pumps, meters and more.

“It’s something I feel is our responsibility to help out with,” he said. “They are in our district, the water comes from Vaughn, it’s about helping each other out.”

Torrance allows guns in county admin building County commission prohibits fireworks

By Elise Kaplan Mountain View Telegraph

Nathan Dial has visited the past several Torrance County Commission meetings to ask commissioners to lift the ban against firearms in the administrative building, and, on May 28, he got his wish.

“I believe in being able to carry a gun,” said commissioner LeRoy Candelaria.

“I’d feel more comfortable if I can see everyone wearing a gun rather than hiding it. If everyone in here had a gun, and someone tried to get one of us, we’d be well protected.”

County attorney Dennis Wallin recommended against lifting the ban, saying he interprets the premises of the New Mexico State University Torrance County Extension Office to include the entire building and parking lot.

New Mexico prohibits carrying a firearm on the premises

of post-secondary educational institutions, such as universities, community colleges, branch community colleges, technical-vocational institutes and area vocational schools.

“If you extend it to the building and the parking lot, where does it stop?” Dial asked. “If a teacher takes kids to the park, are guns no longer allowed in the park?”

The commissioners agreed with Dial and voted to allow firearms in the building, except for the extension office.

“Though I don’t see any reason to carry a gun in here,” commissioner Lonnie Freyburger added.

Also at the meeting: n The commission held three public hearings allowing members of the public to give their input on increasing the industrial revenue bond for the El Cabo wind project, the Safety Net Care Pool fund every county is now required to contribute a fraction of gross receipt taxes to, and a ban on firework sales.

The commission decided

to enact a 30-day ban on fireworks despite the recent rainfall. However, Freyburger said the ban would do nothing to prevent sales to people transporting them out of state, and applies to far-reaching devices, not those on the ground.

“The ban is only in the unincorporated areas,” Wallin explained. “And bans specific types of fireworks, those you could shoot into someone else’s property. If they’re in a safe area — paved or barren — then it’s appropriate. This ordinance protects us from restricting sale across state borders.”

All three ordinances up for discussion were approved. n The commission decided to put on the ballot in November a capital outlay tax to raise funds for the Fire Department and Sheriff Department.

“When we’re looking at what we need to do for the Fire Department and the Sheriff Department budget, the only way we can do that is if the public agrees to help,” Freyburger said.

East Mountain High seeks to join APS Plan could help get new building

By Jon Swedien Albuquerque Journal

East Mountain High School is seeking to rejoin Albuquerque Public Schools.

The East Mountain High Governance Board voted on May 19 to ask APS to be its next authorizer, beginning in the 2015-16 school year.

Charter schools must be reauthorized every five years by either a local district or the state. East Mountain was authorized by APS when it opened in 2000, but switched to state authorization in 2010 because it could get more in operating dollars, said principal Doug Wine.

Now, Wine said, East Mountain’s gover nance board wants to return to APS, in part, because it will put East Mountain in a better position to have a new school built in

the coming years.

“A new facility is a main reason (for the switch), but it’s not the only one,” Wine said, adding that APS can also provide additional professional development opportunities and support services.

Both state- and locally authorized charters receive money for capital projects, but Wine said it could take his school two decades to save up for a new building. Under APS authorization, the school stands a better shot at getting a new school when its current facility outlives its useful life, Wine said.

The location still would be in the East Mountains, he said.

APS has an arrangement with its charter schools, in which they give their capital funds to the district in exchange for having their construction projects on the district’s capital master plan, which ranks projects by need, said Joseph Escobedo, APS director of government affairs.

HISTORIC HIGHWAY

COURTESY OF BERNALILLO COUNTY

N.M. 333 has finally gotten new mast arm signs designating it as U.S. 66, aka Route 66, courtesy of the state Legislature, several governors and the federal government — with an assist from Bernalillo County’s Operations and Maintenance Department and the New Mexico Department of Transportation. The signs, which run around $240 each, not including installation, are at the intersections with N.M. 337/South 14 and Interstate 40.

He said it is a benefit to charter schools because they have new facilities built when they’re needed — not just when they’ve saved up enough money. A new plan is approved every six years. The earliest East Mountain could get a project on the plan is 2016.

APS in recent years has paid for charter school buildings under its authorization, such as South Valley Academy and Robert F. Kennedy High.

The APS board still must approve East Mountain’s authorization this fall, Escobedo said. He said district officials have had an interest in again authorizing the charter and have been meeting with East Mountain officials for more than year.

“This has been a goal of (Superintendent Winston Brooks),” Escobedo said, adding that East Mountain is a high-achieving school and APS is looking to give parents more choices.

State puts your cash to work in small business In this political high season, if you ask the average New Mexico voter or politician what the state’s economy needs, jobs, as well as support for existing small businesses, will be high on all the short lists.

But ask them for specifics on how to achieve either, and you’ll be lucky to get much beyond growing government and entitlement programs or mandating higher paychecks. Yet New Mexico has quietly been making investments that allow entrepreneurs whose enterprises are small, but whose drive and vision aren’t, to hire their fellow New Mexicans.

Since its creation by the Legislature in 2001, the New Mexico Small Business Investment Corp. has used the equivalent of 1 percent of the severance tax fund, or about $47 million, to invest in New Mexico businesses.

Under the Gov. Bill Richardson administration, the focus was on funding venture capitalists, many of whom went bust in 2008’s Great Recession. Under the administration of Gov. Susana Martinez, who replaced most of the NMSBIC’s seven-member board of directors, the focus has been on providing low-cost revolving lines of credit to three New Mexico microlenders, which in turn provide loans to entrepreneurs and small businesses that otherwise wouldn’t qualify for commercial credit.

And those investments have paid off in more ways than one — The Loan Fund has a 97.5 percent repayment rate among borrowers; Accion has a 94 percent repayment rate. Along with WESST, which focuses more on mentorship, the microlenders operate throughout the state, unlike venture-backed startups that tend to concentrate in urban areas.

Accion President and CEO Anne Haines explains “the state is getting a very real return on its funding in terms of jobs sustained and created. NMSBIC dollars have reached into the hands of low- and moderate-income families throughout the state to expand or launch new businesses.”

And they provide not only jobs to New Mexicans, but vital services as well. One example is Olena Dziuba and Mauro Nava, who used their $30,000 Accion loan to start Clinica La Esperanza, a low-cost family health clinic for the uninsured in Albuquerque’s South Valley, in 2011.

The pair received another $30,000 in 2013 and now serve 6,500 patients who would likely have few, if any, options for health care if the clinic didn’t exist.

The Legislature established the NMSBIC with a goal of job creation. More than a decade later, it is providing tangible results in the form of jobs and services for New Mexicans. And, especially in a political season, it’s good to have a concrete example of how to put tax dollars to real work.

NM still offering your father’s primary election In New Mexico’s primary elections, roughly one out of every five registered voters — around 200,000 people — can’t vote. It’s not because they missed early voting or will be out of town or forgot to get an absentee ballot.

It’s because they declined to pledge allegiance to one of two parties and instead registered as “Decline to State.”

And while one in four registered Democrats and Republicans are considered young voters — between the ages of 18 and 34 — they accounted for no more than one in 10 votes cast in the 2010 party primaries. According to New Mexico political analyst Brian Sanderoff, president of Research & Polling, the over-50 group accounts for 75 percent of primary election ballots cast.

Like early-bird dinner specials and senior discounts, primary voting in New Mexico is now considered “an over-50 affair,” and voter apathy is high. Early-voting turnout has been down from the last gubernatorial primary in 2010, with just a few thousand votes cast in each of the state’s most populous counties.

That’s unfortunate, considering the Democrats had five candidates vying to take on Gov. Susana Martinez in the fall; the Republicans had two who want Sen. Tom Udall’s seat, two who wanted Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s, and two who wanted Rep. Ben Ray Luján’s; there was an ugly Democratic contest for treasurer; five Democrats ran for two Public Regulation Commission jobs; and a slew of state House seats, judgeships, county commission posts and sheriff’s badges were up for grabs.

It is a vital component of a representative democracy that registered voters ensure they are heard.

There’s plenty of time for incumbent and new members of the 2015 Legislature to move the state forward for all voters by finally allowing people, not just parties, a voice in New Mexico’s primary elections.

Keeping options and minds open

By Stephan Helgesen For the Telegraph

“If it weren’t for our country’s special interests, we’d have no interest at all!” Those words were spoken by my alter ego (alter ego: from the Latin meaning ‘the other’ and supposedly another part of a person or a person within us that may or may not share our personality but is psychologically similar). For the purposes of this article, let’s call my alter ego Herman.

Herman was born (like me) right after WWII and grew up thinking that the USA was a simple, easily identifiable place, divided among rural and city dwellers, Republicans and Democrats, rich and poor, men and women, and young and old. Because we both lived in Wisconsin, we also saw that there were two basic types of people: Scandinavians and everybody else.

For the most part, Herman viewed things in black and white, not racially but in absolute terms like up or down, good or bad, sweet or sour, hot or cold. Living our daily lives was pretty straightforward, with two clear choices on just about everything. That was until we found ourselves in strange new situations that we might call no-brainers today.

I’m thinking that started in

1957 when Gov. Orval Faubus, D-Arkansas, defied the Supreme Court’s order to de-segregate the Little Rock School District’s schools. For those of you who don’t remember that far back, Faubus even ordered the Arkansas National Guard in to stop black students from entering the Little Rock Central High School.

Herman and I were shocked, and we wondered why on earth an adult would try to PREVENT kids from going to school! We began to see patterns emerge when, six years later, Gov. George Wallace, D-Alabama, tried to keep black students out of the University of Alabama. At that time, our black and white TV was full of blacks and whites in turmoil, and we were disgusted but not confused. This was bad medicine for Amer-

ica. We were confused about some things, however, like peaceniks, beatniks, hippies, yippies (and, later, yuppies) and the growing societal split in America.

There was an explosion of associations for the advancement of blank and societies for the protection of blank (you fill in the blanks), and nongovernment organizations, or NGOs, that started cashing in on America’s multiple personality disorder. Seemed like the only special interest group not in Washington, D.C., was the Organization for the Preservation of Common Sense!

Herman and I were in denial. We pulled back. We clung to our religion, faith in our country and, if we had owned any then, our guns (didn’t somebody say that about hicks like us back in 2008?). The winds of change, nuclear proliferation, foreign wars and sexual liberation soon blew us off balance in the late ’60s and early ’70s, and we had to choose what kind of American we were going to be. Conservative, Progressive, Independent, hawk or dove, pro-life or pro-choice, pro-studying or pro-demonstrating, capitalist/materialist or collectivist/social humanist, drug abstinent or doper, pro-labor or right-toworker, Sinatra or Mathis,

Coke or Pepsi? OK, those last two choices were trivial, but they were real choices.

Things accelerated until America split into two distinct groups: them and us. And, by being part of one group, you were effectively opposed to the other group. For example, you could be a member of one group if you were: for saving the planet but killing the unborn; staying out of wars and neutering the military; advocating for free speech as long as it didn’t contradict yours; protecting the rights of women but ignoring those of unwed fathers; marginalizing religious institutions and removing God from our daily lives, and then replacing Him with more paternalistic government programs. You could also be the opposite of all those things and belong to the other group. When it comes to these choices, Herman and I belong to the Groucho Marx school: We wouldn’t want to be a member of any club that would have us as members. So, we’re keeping our options and our minds open. Wish America would do the same.

Letters Kudos to ECS’ preschool program THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY NEGATIVE things in the news lately about our local schools that I wanted to take a minute to shine a spotlight on a local asset.

Edgewood Christian School, or ECS, has been educating kids in the East Mountains for 30 years, and they’ve been doing a great job of it. My son has attended the school for two years already, but I did not feel compelled to write this letter until last weekend’s end-ofthe-year awards ceremony. I was astonished at what I saw and want to share it with the community.

ECS launched a K-3 preschool program this school year, emphasizing to all interested parents that this was not a day care program, but a pre-school that will prepare kids for full-time pre-K, and this school has delivered on their promise. During the awards ceremony, proud parents watched 3-year-olds correctly identify shapes, colors and continents on a map.

While while we were all impressed with those achievements, we were blown away by what followed. Two tiny girls stood up in front of the crowd to read several simple sentences, and then one legibly wrote her name.

The teacher went on to tell us that they had spent the school year learning all the letters of the alphabet, they knew all the sounds of the letters and they were refining their motor skills with basic penmanship. Did I mention that they’ve done all that attending school only three days a week?

After the pre-schoolers

knocked our socks off, three kindergarteners took turns reading advanced stories in front of the audience. One read an excerpt from an address to the Union given

by President Ronald Reagan.

The excerpts contained several third- and fourth-gradelevel reading words, and the kids were completely comfortable with them. It was the most impressive display of early education many of us had ever seen.

As parents paying for private school, my husband and I often assess the educational return we are getting for our tuition dollars, and at ECS there is no question that every dollar we have spent is well worth it. Our oldest will enter the first/second grade class this fall, where he’ll benefit from an estimated 9-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio, and that teacher is master’s-level educated. Our youngest will join the K-3 pre-school program, and I will start counting down the days to next year’s award ceremony, when I hope to see my 3-year-old stand on stage to read and write.

Moriarty choir goes to New York THE MORIARTY HIGH SCHOOL MESSENGERS just returned from a very successful trip to New York City where they performed the premiere of Bradley Ellingboe’s new piece for choir and orchestra, “Star Song” at Avery Fisher Hall in Lincoln Center.

The communities of Moriarty and Edgewood can be proud of these students. They were the most respectful, kind and caring kids in NYC. Many of the adult singers commented on what wonderful students they were. This would not have been able to happen without the support of our communities, families and friends.

The Messengers and their families would like to thank the following businesses and individuals for helping them to meet their fundraising goals that made this oncein-a-lifetime experience possible: Breaking Blue, MHS Faculty and Administration, MHS Transportation, MESD Administration, MESD School Board, McCalls Pumpkin Patch, Sam’s Club, Costco, Smith’s in Edgewood, The Rebel Saints, Ferrell Gas, Tuesday Morning, Michael’s, National Wild Turkey Federation, Pizza Barn, Brilliant Hair Studio, RV Sales, Dairy Queen — Edgewood, Albuquerque Farmer’s Market, Creamland Dairy, Walmart — Edgewood, Mountain View Telegraph, The Independent, Moriarty Chamber of Com-

Demonstration against Tapia THIS PAST FRIDAY, THERE WAS A DEMONSTRATION by a number of protesters, believed to be about 10 to 12 in number, in front of Shorty’s Barbecue.

The protest concerned Commissioner Leeane Tapia’s vote on the Solid Waste Contract. Evidently, during the protest two large vehicles were suddenly parked on the side of West Central Avenue. These vehicles constituted a safety hazard to eastbound traffic and also blocked the view of passersby of the demonstrators.

As to why two vehicles would suddenly be parked in that location one can only speculate; but my hat’s off to those who felt strongly enough about this matter to exercise their constitutional right to assemble and make their feelings known to Commissioner Tapia.

Coronado Historic Site lecture set The Friends of Tijeras Pueblo continues its lecture series on Tuesday with “Why is it called Coronado Historic Site?” by Scott Smith.

The talk will address some of the reasons why an ancestral puebloan site that was probably home to Tiwaspeaking people is (sort of) named for the first major European explorer to reach New Mexico, even though there is no archeological evidence to prove that the explorer ever visited the site and English-speaking historians have always gotten his name wrong. And the speaker will endeavor to explain why he thinks this disorderly state of affairs is and should remain just the way it is.

Smith has worked for New Mexico Historic Sites since 1989, 10 of those years at Coronado Historic Site.

The lecture will start at 6:30 p.m. at the Sandia Ranger Station in Tijeras.

Food vendors must conform to state regulations. Sellers, artists and crafters are welcome.

The displays get set up early in the morning as sellers pick out the places they like, so it’s good to come early.

Estancia’s Masonic Lodge sponsors the event, and the local Rainbow Girls assembly will be cooking breakfast as a fundraiser at the lodge.

The annual sale usually fills a few blocks, but there really is a mile of sidewalk available on each side of the highway if it is needed.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK

ship for a Healthy Torrance Community, the New Mexico Department of Health, Human Impact Partners and community members will hold a public meeting seeking help in identifying how the pipeline could affect the health of residents and which specific impacts the HIA should focus on. HIP is an organization working across the states — including other regions of New Mexico — to assess the impact of projects and policies on the health of low-income communities.

“The point of the assessment is to inform the process,” explained Patricia Lincoln, a representative of Partnership for a Healthy Torrance County. “We’ll look at the historical and cultural impact, the people’s connection to the land and place, the economic impact, water, and health and safety. From a health council standpoint, we’ll collect all information that is pertinent and bring that to the community decision makers.”

Lincoln said this information can the be used when the Torrance County Commission has to approve or deny a special use permit for county lands, but the health council will not be involved in making the decision. They hope to fast-track the assessment and have it completed by mid-September before the BLM presents the Environmental Impact Statement.

The community input meeting will be June 9 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Alpine Alley, 201 N. Summit Ave., Mountainair.

and counties to enact bans and, on the other hand, still issuing fireworks vendor permits for tent sales.

“It feels like the state wants us to be the bad guys in this,” Hart said. “If the governor were concerned about fireworks, why are they still issuing sales permits?”

Also at the meeting: n The council approved a water line extension for the Shops @ 66 on Old Route 66

west of the TA Travel Center.

The water line would serve the shopping center on the north side of the road. Developers will pay for the line and turn it over to the city.

Other customers who want to hook onto the line would have to pay the developers a pro rated amount to do so. n The mayor and council approved a proclamation declaring May 28 Jonathan Myrick day.

Myrick, a recent Moriarty

High School graduate, was the high-point athlete at the state track meet held in May. n The council approved two appropriations from the Lodgers’ Tax Fund. The first was for $1,880 to the Edgewood Civitans Club to help the organization buy advertising for its annual gun show in September at the Moriarty Civic Center.

The second appropriation for $3,640 went to Sandia MX to help publicize events at the track.

Tapia also had requested the county go out for bid on a new hauler and for the authority to have an audit.

In the Commission District 1 Republican primary, former Commissioner Jim Frost handily defeated David Saline. According to unofficial results, Frost received 179 votes to Saline’s 125.

Frost will face incumbent Democratic Commissioner Lonnie Freyburger in the general election. Freyburger did not have an opponent in the primary.

For Torrance County probate judge, incumbent Jim Summers easily won the Republican primary against two opponents. Summers garnered 584 votes while opponents Mary Ann C. Anaya received 410 votes and Martin Adan Lucero received 90 votes.

Summers will face Democrat Viola Lueras Chavez in the general election.

Bernalillo County Bernalillo County Sheriff Dan Houston’s bid for reelection ended Tuesday when the man who was once one of his top deputies, Scott Baird, edged him out for the Republican nomination, according to unofficial results.

Baird had about 48 percent of the vote to Houston’s 46 percent.

The margin on the Democratic side was just as close, with ex-Sheriff Manuel Gonzales III claiming 51 percent of the vote over court security officer Sylvester Stanley.

The totals were unofficial.

They didn’t include about 415 ballots that will have to be hand-tallied or handled later for one reason or another.

Voters whose eligibility is questioned, for example, have their ballots set aside for review before the votes are included in the totals. The ballots will be tabulated during the canvassing process that leads to certification of the vote, which can take about two weeks.

Probate Judge Willow Misty Parks defeated challenger Dominic Levi Lafayette in the Democratic primary. She has no Republican opponent in the general election.

Legislative In the Democratic primary for the District 70 House seat, incumbent Tomas Salazar held on for re-election against Richard Vigil.

The district stretches from San Miguel County in the north to Torrance County in the south. Vigil had represented the district until his defeat

Each year, most libraries around the state — including those in the East Mountains and Estancia Valley — participate in the Collaborative Summer Library Program. The theme for this year’s program is Fizz, Boom, Read! Local libraries will have programs similar to each other, but there also is plenty of room for different kinds of activities.

Here’s a run down of some of the exciting things happening in local libraries.

program participants can gain incentives to read by keeping a reading log. Every time a log is completed, it can be returned to the library for a prize.

Events include “Flight” on June 10, in which participants will discover the how and why of flying. On June 17, the program will turn to sound, while the June 24 event will focus on energy.

On July 1, the program participants will learn about chemical reactions.

Each Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. will be Story Time for children kindergarten age and younger.

Other events include the Pawsitively Love Reading program the third Saturday of the month at 1 p.m. in which children can read to dogs.

Family Fun Nights are every fourth Thursday of the month from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. All activities are meant to encourage togetherness and creativity without emphasis on any particular age or skill level.

MORIARTY COMMUNITY LIBRARY: At the Moriarty library, summer is looking to be loaded with fun.

Each Tuesday through July from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. will be Family Game Night and each Thursday will be Family Movie Night.

Every Wednesday from 10:30 a.m. to noon is Story Time and Crafts. During craft time, children will make a crystal geode, a hovercraft, a parachute, a lava lamp and other fun things.

On June 21, the library will host spy training, and on July 19 a Princess Tea and Knight’s Training.

The Anime Club for teens and young adults meets every Friday from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Coaching positions see many changes

By Jim Goodman Mountain View Telegraph

It’s late spring and the birds are migrating. So are coaches across the East Mountains and Estancia Valley.

In Moriarty, boys basketball coach Michael Mondragon has gone back home to Artesia. The school district announced Tuesday it has hired Mike Trujillo as the basketball coach. Trujillo has had coaching stints in Moriarty and Estancia.

Bob Allcorn also left Moriarty as football coach to go back home to Bloomfield. He was replaced by one of his assistants, Joe Anaya.

At East Mountain High, there is an ongoing search for a volleyball coach after Raleigh Zellers left and a girls basketball coach after Grant

Blankenship left to further his work with his ministry.

In Estancia, Mike Cabber has quit as baseball coach after seven seasons of coaching his sons Justin and Clay. Ernest Renteria was let go as both girls basketball coach and coathletics director.

Steven Bernal left as Mountainair football coach and was replaced by Troy Schmidt. Schmidt is also the girls basketball coach at the school.

At Manzano, David Gibson left as boys basketball coach, citing conflicts with his job at Sandia Laboratory. He has recently been replaced

by Bosque coach Eric Orell, who assisted eight seasons for the Monarchs under both Greg Brown and Travis Julian.

Gina Cormier also took over as girls soccer coach at Manzano. She

took over for third-year coach Brian Pecorella.

Manzano baseball coach and athletics director Jim Briggs has coached his last game for the Monarchs. After 21 seasons, Briggs has retired as both athletics director and baseball coach.

“It was time to give somebody else a shot,” Briggs said.

Briggs’ son, Wyatt, will be a senior baseball player at La Cueva next year and has verbally committed to the University of New Mexico beyond that.

Jim Briggs said he gave his son the choice of playing for the Bears — the family lives in the La Cueva district — or playing for his old man.

“It really didn’t bother me,” Jim See COACHING on PAGE 8

By Jim Goodman Mountain View Telegraph

The halls of Moriarty High School are not shaped like a track, or a bowling alley for that matter. But some special needs students at the school are finding them a little friendlier — at least in part because of their involvement in Special Olympics track and bowling.

“They react differently coming down the halls,” Joey Gonzales said. Gonzales is a high school special needs teacher who also is the team’s coach.

“It gives life — a sport to participate in,” Gonzales said. “The kids learn to understand and treat people better. They can put me from a bad mood to great one — just like that.”

Lynnetta Rogers said she’s seen a big change in her son

Kobey Saline.

“You can see the joy when they cross the finish line,” Rogers said. “It helps them get more friendly and talk more.”

“I need to start doing that,” said Kobey, his mother smiling.

Saline had just finished winning a 400-meter Unified Relay heat at Friday’s New Mexico Special Olympics with teammate Austin Gutierrez, and mentors Alicia Page and Cruzz Howse.

“I don’t care about winning — I like the running,” Saline said.

“I like bowling better — it’s a good sport.”

Gutierrez, caught up in the moment, did not agree totally with his teammate.

“It’s awesome to cross the finish line first,” Gutierrez said, intimating that he may have been faster than some of his teammates. “We did a good job as a team.”

The program returned to See 2 TROPHIES on PAGE 8

The winds died down just in time for the 30 to 40 people who showed up for the Moriarty Twilight Track Meet on Tuesday. A good portion of the competitors were under the age of 10 with some not even reaching 2 years old.

Logan Saenz, 4, braved out the 50-meter Lollypop Dash after taking a spill near the start line. He was holding his arm at the end of the race but shook his head when asked if it hurt.

“I just wanted to run fast,” Saenz said.

Moriarty track coach Joe Bailey runs the event with the help of his family and the families of assistants Peter and Gabriel Romero.

Bailey called it a “good turnout. We usually fluctuate between 20-50.”

The runners varied from small to adult in size and Santa Fe capital alum Erin Edwards even did the 400-meter race with her 2-year-old, Calvin, in the stroller.

“I never thought I’d be a Pinto,” Edwards, now of Edgewood, said. “I have done 5Ks and the UNM triathlon—(but) it’s hard to run with a stroller because you can’t use your arms.”

Bailey said that when he first started the track meets they were designed to attract middle and high school athletes. But they evolved into a family event.

“We do have both Senior and Special Olympians who come out also,” Bailey said.

Bailey’s grandson, Owen, came out with his parents. It just so happens that Owen’s father,Chris Grano, holds the record for the quarter-mile at Moriarty.

“The record kind of cinched that I was able to See KIDS on PAGE 11

Athletes of the week Moriarty Special Olympians Austin Gutierrez and Kobey Saline, along with their Unified Relay Team peers Alicia Page and Cruzz Howse, are the Mountain View Telegraph Athletes of the Week.

Gutierrez anchored the team, which won its 400-meter relay heat by 35 yards, and Saline started

them off with a fast leg.

He handed off the baton to Page who handed to Howse.

Page not only ran in the race, but was instrumental in bringing the program back to Moriarty after a two-year absence. She and Howse both volunteered their time throughout the season, as did other peer coaches.

And the winner by a tongue is!! These youngsters somehow got the idea that you could win by as small a margin as a taste bud.

‘Why me?’: Coach Rent questions termination

W

hen Ernest “Rent” Renteria told me in 2008 that he didn’t like to argue with the referees so as not to make enemies with them, I wasn’t sure what to think. I had never seen a coach not argue the calls on a basketball court.

He still hasn’t complained about the calls on the court, but Renteria is ready to complain about his termination as co-athletic director and girls basketball coach at Estancia High School. He said he had heard that there was going to be a reorganization but didn’t expect that he would receive a letter of termination after 10 years at EHS. “Why me?” Renteria asked.

“I have no reprimands and have always taken a lot of

JIM GOODMAN

Mountain View Telegraph pride in my work — they wanted 110 per cent, I gave 150.”

His way of dealing with referees wasn’t the only JIM GOODMAN thing I disagreed with in that first year. Renteria said that I wasn’t the only one who disagreed (his wife Caroline still questions him on that) with his leaving players on the court with four fouls even if it was the third

quarter.

While some called for Rent to be let go in 2008, he wasn’t.

I began to understand how his ideas might work both on and off the court.

So now, when the girls track team, for which he coached sprints and relays, just won a state championship, it seemed like an inopportune time.

Some might argue that there is no need for two athletic directors but Rent wasn’t offered to stay as just a coach.

“I hope it works for them for the sake of the kids,” Rent said. “This took away what I live for.”

Renteria started coaching in the early 1970s at Lordsburg, where he led the school to its first state track title and also took

the boys basketball team to state regularly in a time when bigger schools were in the same class as small and getting past regionals was no easy task.

He was at Mountainair for 16 years, during which time his six-man football team lost only seven games.

The Mustangs won state championships from 19891992, and were runners-up in 1988 and 1997.

All that came from a team that had lost 37 games in a row. Mountainair won 48 straight games in the early 1990s and were once in the top 10 nationally, according to Renteria.

Rent, in the midst of moving, recently found some old letters — some from fans and some letters of commendation. But he added

Moriarty last year after Page came to Gonzales, the coach said.

“My dad, a cop, the last few years ran in the law enforcement torch run (ending at the state Special Olympics),” Page said. “Afterward, I realized that our school didn’t have (a program) — as a track athlete, I wanted them to have the same opportunities as me.”

Last year, Gonzales said, the combined bowling and track programs had three and this year it has grown to five or six Special Olympians.

“I want the program to grow in a nice, orderly fashion,” Gonzales said. “I don’t want it to get out of control and hope to have nine or 10 kids next year.”

Both sports are privately funded, although Gonzales said he is able to borrow some equipment from varsity track coach Joe Bailey. He added that the team wouldn’t be possible without sponsorships from 2nd to None and Tillery Chevrolet GMC.

The bowling can be particularly costly because the team has to go to Albuquerque for weekly practices. The parents usually drive their own kids, the coach said, but the games can add up — with entry fees, bowling can prove somewhat expensive. But it all proved wor thwhi le as the team brought home both a secondand a third-place trophy.

“We had two young special needs kids bowling in the 140s and 150s,” Gonzales said. “As opposed to standing over them, the mentors work alongside.”

Francis Anaya of the Horizon Academy does a lot of the team’s paperwork and Amy Page also helps with the team.

Amy Page had a mentor with a prior commitment on Friday and had to get another helper.

“Ms. Page asked me and I know Simon (Ecton, a Special Olympian) personally,” said that replacement, Abbey Aultman. “So I said I definitely want to do it.”

Aultman, also on the track team, was told not to run at full speed in her Unified relay

said. “There were pluses and minuses either way. He played with all those kids growing up.”

Indeed, Wyatt said, many of his La Cueva teammates came up through the Eastdale Little League system, and said he

was more comfortable with the Bears.

“I felt closer to them than I did the people in the East Mountains,” Wyatt said, adding that his father was very supportive of his decision to attend La Cueva.

“I’m going to move on and watch my only kid play and

RODEO RIDERS

“Maybe I should have gone a little faster,” Aultman said, smiling.

Isabella Gonzales is the coach’s daughter and an eighth-grader. According to her father, she is at every practice and works tirelessly.

“I’ve always been around special needs kids but I hang out with Simon,” Isabella Gonzales said. “In middle school, the special needs kids get treated better than others.”

Joey Gonzales told a story of something that happened at last year’s New Mexico Special Olympics.

“A contestant, about to win, saw that his opponent was not looking healthy,” Gonzales said. “The runner stopped and turned around, picking up his opponent and carrying him to cross the finish line first.”

These kids can run and bowl, but they need some donations to help carry them sometimes.

Manzano has already hired Shawn Morris to take over AD duties, and the Monarchs will soon interview candidates for the baseball position.

the greatest coach but we definitely saw improvement,” Renteria said.

In the last few years, Rent had been taking care of sick relatives and so had been leaving through the back door after games. I thought at first that maybe it was because of my disagreements with his on-court strategy that he was avoiding reporters.

But he wasn’t and would go into details of the game in person if you caught him quickly. And he would always answer his phone if you didn’t catch him at the game.

Renteria said he is not done with coaching yet after 40-plus years. “I still have some fuel left,” he said.

I, for one, would like to see him burn that fuel locally.

that he’d been receiving letters from the Estancia community since the news broke.

“I feel like crying,” he said.

“I take a lot of pride.”

Rent said that he always has run a very structured program and was proud that his girls hadn’t had a disciplinary problem in a while. “I set them straight right away,” the ex-coach said. “I had excellent rapport with the students and they have always been my priority.”

The state champion girls track team dedicated their trophy to him and got him a plaque.
