BACK IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS EIGHTY YEARS AGO NOV. 2-8, 1934 • The Monett Bears independent football team defeated the Wyandotte, Okla. Indians 14-0 on Nov. 4. The Bears scored by way of two touchdowns. The Bears were disappointed in the Indians, but they had been highly recommended.

Next Sunday the Bears will meet the Carthage or Joplin Night Owls, colored players defeated twice by the Monett team.

• In the Nov. 6 general election Democrat Harry Truman carried Monett over Republican Roscoe Patterson by a vote of 1,220 to 916 and won the election.

Incumbent school superintendent King was re-elected over challenger Matthews 1,188 to 935.

SEVENTY YEARS AGO NOV. 2-8, 1944 • New merchandise and fixtures have been arriving in Monett for the opening of the new Firestone home and auto supply store owned by L.G. Jones that will open on Nov. 16. Everett Prevo will be the manager of the store, located the first door east of the Kroger Store.

• In the general election on Nov. 7, New York Governor Thomas Dewey carried both counties and Monett over President Franklin Roosevelt. In Monett, Dewey won 1,311 to 1,257.

In Barry County Dewey had 5,537 to FDR’s 3,764, and in Lawrence County Dewey had 6,481 to Roosevelt’s 3,608. Congressman Dewey Short was re-elected by similar margins.

SIXTY YEARS AGO NOV. 2-8, 1954 • In mid-December, the Monett phone system will be converted to a dial telephone system. For the past two weeks, employees at the Southwestern Bell

Telephone office have been busy making up orders giving subscribers new dial phone numbers. About 1,940 service orders will be issued.

• Because the bridge weight at the Monett City Park holds only 80 tons, the possibility of a memorial there with a Frisco locomotive steam engine has been ruled out and other sites are currently being considered.

A locomotive would weight 264,000 pounds.

FIFTY YEARS AGO NOV. 2-8, 1964 • A large portion of the 90-ton extrusion press for the new Wells Aluminum factory in Monett arrived this week. H.C. Beckwith, vice president of Wells, inspected the press following its arrival and said it appeared to be in good condition after its trip from the foundry.

• Firefighters from Monett and Sarcoxie joined Pierce City firemen in fighting the fire that destroyed the Pierce City Casket Company factory on Commercial Street on Nov. 4. The loss was estimated at $100,000. Power was turned off in Pierce City for about 90 minutes and phone lines west to Joplin burned.

FORTY YEARS AGO NOV. 2-8, 1974 • The Monett Cubs presented their popular head coach, Burl Fowler, with his 100th high school football coaching victory this week, a 26-7 decision over the Lamar Tigers at Lamar.

It was a double milestone for the Cubs and Fowler, ensuring the Monettans of their sixth consecutive winning season, now standing at 6-2 with two games left this season. Fowler’s record in 15 years of coaching advanced to 100-46-3.

A 1910 postcard turned up in November 1964, found by Mrs. W.W. Jenkins that provided a way to identify several Monett businesses. The sidewalk canopy of the old Indiana House, located where the McGinty-Frohlich Store later set up shop, is barely visible at the lower right hand corner. On the first door west of the First National Bank, at center, where Davis Hardware was located in 1964, was the Saxe Meat Market. The Beehive Store, with a plainly visible awning marker, occupied the future home of Gliedt Paint and Wallpaper. One door west, later the home of Mansfield’s, was the A.H. Cox Drug Store. The Newman’s Store, located across Fourth Street from the bank, later housed the Gillioz Clothing Company and the McShane Drug Company. Next door was the Davis and Chapell Hardware Store, later the Bon Ton Shop. The only automobile on the street was a 1910 Brush, owned by Charlie Anderson, who operated a jewelry store at the Cox Drug Store. File Photo/The Monett Times • Customers visiting the open house at First National Bank received copies of lithograph prints of the Frisco Depot, Harvey House and Switch Engine No. 3730, the first in the Monett Heritage Collection created by artist James Burkhart.

THIRTY YEARS AGO NOV. 2-8, 1984 • Dr. Ralph Scott, Monett R-1 superintendent of schools, was named Outstanding CTA/MSTA School Administrator during the 128th annual convention of the 30,000-member Missouri State Teachers Association, held in Kansas City.

• The lithesome beauty and dancing talent of

Whitney Conyers, a Monett High School junior, captivated judges and audience alike to earn her the title of 1984-85 Miss Monett Lions at the 35th annual Monett Lions Club Beauty Pageant, held Nov. 3 at the Monett City Hall Auditorium.

TWENTY YEARS AGO NOV. 2-8, 1994 • Frank Compton has been appointed as the new executive director of the Clark Community Mental Health Center. Compton, who has a master’s degree in social work, is taking over from Douglas Brooks, Ph.D., who has been the executive director since 1979.

• Elizabeth Garrett, M.D., a 1971 graduate of

Monett High School, has received the University of Missouri-Columbia School of Medicine’s highest teaching honor, the 1994 Jane M. Hickman Teacher of the Year Award.

TEN YEARS AGO NOV. 2-8, 2004 • Propelled by a potent passing attack, the Monett Cubs soared past the Aurora Houn’ Dawgs on Nov. 4 by a score of 53-23 to claim the Class 3A District 10 football title as well as

co-championship of the Big 8 Conference along with Seneca, sending the Cubs to post-season play for the first time since 1998.

• After talking for several months about putting some kind of ordinance on the books to protect the city from sexually oriented businesses, Pierce City aldermen adopted Monett’s 26-page ordinance to address concerns raised about having no restrictions previously on the books.

Q&A: Mick Jagger, the film producer, heads to work

BY MESFIN FEKADU AP Music Writer

NEW YORK — Song credits won’t be the latest place to feature Mick Jagger’s name. Instead, look to upcoming films and TV shows.

The Rolling Stones frontman has been busy producing projects, from this year’s James Brown biopic “Get on Up” to a not-yet-titled HBO series directed

by Martin Scorsese.

Jagger is also behind the HBO documentary “Mr. Dynamite: The Rise of James Brown,” which debuts Monday (9 p.m. EDT). The rock icon said he was asked to produce the documentary before the film.

“I was really interested, but I was kind of a bit documentary-ed out at that point,” the 71-year-old said with a laugh, explaining that he was asked to produce “Mr. Dynamite” around the time he finished working on the 2012 Stones’ documentary, “Crossfire Hurricane.”

“It’s very time-consuming ... but I said, ‘Yeah and I’d really like to do the documentary.’ Then I woke up the next morning and thought a feature film would be a great idea.”

Jagger asked Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney to work on the documentary, which takes an overarching look at the Godfather of Soul’s life. Brown died in 2006, at 73.

“The fact that we were doing it after Mr. Brown had passed allowed people to be a little bit more free about talking about him,” Gibney said.

Gibney, whose credits include “Taxi to the Dark Side,” said he enjoyed collaborating with Jagger.

“I heard some things that made me nervous, but I had a great time. He’s a good producer,” he said. “I just heard rumbles ... but I didn’t find that to be the case. Just the opposite.”

Jagger’s other upcoming production projects include the films “Tabloid” and “The Tiny Problems of White People” with Colin Firth. He’ll play rescheduled dates with the Stones in Australia starting Saturday, and said in a recent interview that his production duties have helped him deal with his tumultuous year following the suicide of his longtime partner, L’Wren Scott.

AP: What was your relationship with James Brown?

Jagger: I’m not claiming that we were buddies (laughs), but I met him early on in my career. When I first came to New York ... I went to the Apollo and I spent the day there ... I introduced myself to him, I’m sure he had no clue (who I was) ... But he was very, very nice to me. Very generous.

AP: How influential was Brown?

Jagger: He was such a big influence on all kinds of music. He was influential on performers that came later like Michael Jackson, Prince, and then the beginning of hip-hop and so forth. But he was also influential (on) every band, every rock band, (they) didn’t necessarily play all James Brown numbers, but we all knew them.

AP: The documentary focuses on his music and activism, but it also touches on domestic violence, which was glossed over in the film.

Jagger: I think Alex wanted to concentrate really on the two areas (music and activism) ... without ignoring the other areas. We could have made a whole movie (on), ‘Was James Brown a drug addict and wife abuser?’ but that’s the negativity and I don’t think you want to be ... white-washing people, but you don’t want to be turning up their negative side. And really we wanted to explore James Brown the musician, the performer. We wanted to explore James Brown the activist, because those we really interesting times. A lot of people obviously didn’t live through them and a lot of people forget, me included, so we didn’t

heavy-hand the negativity of it.

AP: What other musicians would you like to do a documentary about?

Jagger: I have been asked to be involved in producing a movie on an adolescent Elvis ... so that’s in the works.

And I’m doing a series on HBO which is very much music-orientated. It’s fictional drama. The lead character is the owner of a record company and it’s about his life.

AP: Are you going to appear on the HBO series?

Jagger: I’m not in it. It’s a story I worked on with Marty (Scorsese). ... It was going to be a movie and then we made it into a TV series. ... The action starts in 1973 in New York so it’s a kind of a weird time because it’s like the beginning of punk, the very beginning of hip-hop and so a lot is going on.

AP: This has been an emotional year for you. How are you doing?

Jagger: I’m doing fine. ... Everyone’s been kind to me. My family’s been very supportive, you know. I’ve had a lot of work to do so that’s kept me, you know, in a good way. So I’m fine.

Dancing, dueling priests become latest Internet sensation

BY TRISHA THOMAS Associated Press

ROME — A video of a pair of dueling, dancing American priests studying in Rome has gone viral, following in the footsteps of a now-famous Italian nun whose Alicia Keys-esque voice won her a singing contest and a record contract.

The Rev. David Rider, 29,

of Hyde Park, New York, and the Rev. John Gibson, 28, of Milwaukee, first shot to Internet fame when they were filmed in April during a fundraiser at the North American College, the elite American seminary up the hill from the Vatican.

Rider warmed up the crowd with a lively tap-dance routine, only to be pushed aside

by Gibson’s fast-footed Irish dance. Soon they were battling it out, trying to impress the crowd.

At the back of the room, journalist Joan Lewis recorded the event and later posted on YouTube.

“All of a sudden the numbers started rising and rising,” Lewis told The Associated Press. The

video has nearly 260,000 views.

Their Internet success has drawn comparisons to Sr. Cristina Scuccia, who won the Italian edition of “The Voice” in June with a series of unadorned pop song performances, in full habit. Her first album features a cover of Madonna’s “Like a Virgin.”

As with Scuccia, the priests’

online popularity was tinged with criticism. Some commentators wrote that the priests shouldn’t have been dancing under a crucifix and a painting of Pope Francis, calling it “disrespectful.”

“We would just refer them to the Bible,” Rider says, “where the Lord tells us to live with joy.”

“Because the People Must Know.”

Public Notice advertising plays a unique role both in American history and in the process by which this country’s democracy is preserved.

Its one premise is that people must be informed if they are to govern themselves competently. Public Notice advertising first came into being with the Congress of 1792. That body, recognizing its responsibility to the people, required the Postmaster General to advertise for bids for the construction of new post offices.

From that inauspicious beginning to the publication requirements in federal, state and local laws today, government officials have come more and more to understand their obligations to inform the public through Public Notice advertising. Newspapers over the years have been the vehicle by which these obligations have been fulfilled. They will continue to be as long as the public demands that it be informed frequently and by the best means possible.

New survey details vast scope of teen dating abuse

BY DAVID CRARY AP National Writer

NEW YORK — From violence to verbal taunts, abusive dating behavior is pervasive among America’s adolescents, according to a new, federally funded survey. It says a majority of boys and girls who date describe themselves as both victims and perpetrators.

Sponsored by the National Institute of Justice, the National Survey on Teen Relationships and Intimate Violence was conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago, a prominent research center which provided preliminary results to The Associated Press. Input came from a nationwide sample of 667 youths aged 12-18 who’d been dating within the past year and who completed a self-administered online questionnaire.

Nearly 20 percent of both boys and girls reported themselves as victims of physical and sexual abuse in dating relationships — but the researchers reported what they called a startling finding when they asked about psychological abuse, broadly defined as actions ranging from name-calling to excessive tracking of a victim. More than 60 percent of each

gender reported being victims and perpetrators of such behavior.

The survey found no substantive differences in measures by ethnicity, family income or geographic location.

Elizabeth Mumford, one of the two lead researchers for the survey, acknowledged that some of the behaviors defined as psychological abuse — such as insults and accusations of flirting — are commonplace but said they shouldn’t be viewed as harmless.

“None of these things are healthy interactions,” she said. “It’s almost more of a concern that our gut reaction is to accept this as natural.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in its campaigns against teen dating violence, also stresses the potential seriousness of psychological abuse.

“Teens often think some behaviors, like teasing and name calling, are a ‘normal’ part of a relationship,” says a CDC fact sheet. “However, these behaviors can become abusive and develop into more serious forms of violence.”

Bruce Taylor, the other lead researcher for the NORC survey, said the overall abuse figures

were higher than previous national studies of dating abuse, revealing “the startlingly widespread nature of this problem.”

Using a definition under which adolescent relationship abuse can occur in person or through electronic means, in public or private, and between current or past dating partners , the survey estimates that 25 million U.S. adolescents are victims and nearly 23 million are perpetrators.

Taylor and Mumford said the high rates in their survey may stem in part from youths being candid due to the privacy of the online format. They also suggested that dating abuse is now so common that young people have little concern about admitting to it.

The survey found fairly similar rates of victimization and perpetration among boys and girls — even in the sub-categories of physical abuse and sexual abuse. Many previous studies have found that girls are markedly more likely to be victims of physical and sexual dating abuse than boys.

However, the researchers detected a shift as adolescents age.

“We found that girls perpetrate serious threats or physical violence more

than boys at ages 12-14, but that boys become the more common perpetrators of serious threats or physical violence by ages 15-18,” they wrote.

Mumford noted that the questionnaire did not delve into such details as which party instigated a two-way confrontation, or whether injuries resulted.

She said it was possible girls suffered more serious injuries than boys.

“Our work suggests that prevention programs need to address both victimization and perpetration, not one or the other,” Mumford and Taylor wrote. They recommended starting prevention programs in middle school, and noted that that teen dating violence is viewed as a possible precursor to adult intimate-partner violence.

Andra Tharp, a health scientist with the CDC’s violence prevention division, said two-way teen dating violence — with both partners engaging in abuse — is widespread.

She said it’s an ongoing challenge among experts in the field to find the right balance in addressing the role of gender — exploring the extent to which both boys and girls are perpetrators, while identifying situations where girls are likely to suffer

more serious harm. For example, Tharp said that if a boyfriend retaliates against a girlfriend who hit him, there’s a higher risk of injury to the girl if —as is likely — the boy is stronger.

Dr. Elizabeth Miller, chief of adolescent medicine at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC, said it’s important to make distinctions about the types of abuse.

She contends that, while boys and girls may engage in psychological abuse at comparable levels, girls are more likely to be the victims in cases of sexual violence and coercion.

“When you look at the need for medical attention, females are expe-

riencing more severe consequences,” she said.

“We’re doing ourselves a disservice if we pretend it’s all the same.”

While many girls are capable of aggressive behavior, they generally don’t share the view of some boys that sexual coercion is acceptable, Miller said.

The research by Mumford and Taylor is expected to be published soon in The Journal of Interpersonal Violence, a peer reviewed academic journal.

The Associated Press and NORC conduct joint polling under the name AP-NORC, but this study was conducted independently by NORC.

Bride’s best friend hesitates to stand up at her wedding

D

EAR ABBY: My best friend is getting married. She left me a message asking me to be a bridesmaid.

Of course I’m honored, but I don’t know what to do. I dislike her fiance.

He is disrespectful and mean to her and to their son.

I can’t stand up with them and pretend to be happy for her when I think she’s making a terrible mistake. I want her to marry someone who will be nice to her.

Help!—CONFLICTED IN MINNESOTA DEAR CONFLICTED: If standing up with her will make you feel like a hypocrite, then don’t do it. But recognize that if you don’t, it will distance you from her.

If your friend’s relationship is dysfunctional now, just wait until after she and her fiance are married, because it isn’t going to magically get better. This young woman is going to need all the support she can get from her friends in the years ahead.

DEAR ABBY: Every year, my children choose to attend Thanksgiving with their in-laws or friends rather than come to our home.

Then they ask me to prepare a celebration the day after or another day.

My husband and I feel left out. It’s plain that we are considered

JEANNE PHILLIPS DEAR ABBY “second” and the kids come only because they feel guilty. Preparing a meal is expensive and time-consuming. We would like to celebrate on the actual holiday.

I think we should be treated with more respect. I also feel like telling these ingrates to stay home this year because we have decided to donate our time to a homeless shelter. Your thoughts?—LEFT OUT IN LEXINGTON DEAR LEFT OUT: I can see why your feelings are hurt. In fairness, I think your children should alternate with which in-laws they spend the holidays.

If you would prefer to make or serve Thanksgiving dinner at a shelter, you should do it. Many people volunteer their time during the holidays, and at other times during the year, and find it gratifying. However, when you inform your children about your plans, try to keep the anger out of the tone of your message.

DEAR ABBY: I’m

11 and my dad is a drug addict. I’m not allowed to have contact with him because of his past choices. People would look down on me if they knew—like my own teacher. She was being snoopy at the beginning of the year and asked me a bunch of questions about my family, and now I feel like she doesn’t treat me the same.—DISTURBED IN SPOKANE DEAR DISTURBED: Your father’s “past choices” are not your fault, and you should not be blamed or judged for them. If you haven’t already told your mother that your teacher questioned you about your family at the beginning of the year, that you answered her honestly and now you feel you are being treat-

ed differently because of it, you definitely should. And your mother should discuss this with the teacher because the questions she was asking may have been appropriate.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

To The voTers of Lawrence counTy and to my friends who question my public support of randee stemmons for Associate Circuit Judge. First, let me say I am a lifelong Republican, as was my husband, Larry Meyer. This election is about justice, not politics.

I have been on the sidelines of a Circuit Judge’s life for 12 years.

I know, first hand, the weight that the responsibilities of justice, fairness, compassion, and politics take on the life of any person holding that office. I feel a need to assist the most experienced, seasoned successor to my late husband, Larry Meyer’s legacy, regardless of politics. randee stemmons has all of the qualifications. First, Randee is a dear family friend who spoke at Larry’s funeral service. However, more than that, she has earned the confidence and respect of the entire Lawrence County Bench and Bar. In her career she has served as a prosecutor, city judge, as well as defense counsel.

Randee is an advocate for children, and for fairness and justice in all matters. She excels in probate experience, unequalled by her opponent. I feel proud and privileged to act as Treasurer for randee stemmons for Judge and sincerely seek your support.

Paid for by Stemmons for Judge Sandy Meyer, Treasurer
