Scary haunted house at Thoms celebrate their Freedom School 65th wedding anniversary Velma and Wayne Thom
By Kaitlyn Gay For their carnival game the eighth graders designed a haunted house. It was located in Freedom’s storm shelter, which is behind the school. There are seven eighth graders, and it required all the eighth graders to perform and put on the haunted house. They were hoping to raise $250-$300 toward their senior trip. Many people went through the haunted house with chilling screams of fear, and paid to go through again! Fun was had by all involved.

Alfalfa County seeks blinds for courthouse windows By Alex Cole Now that new windows have been installed in the Alfalfa County Courthouse, the board of commissioners plans to purchase new blinds to go with them. During a regular meeting on Monday, Commissioner Doug Murrow said he received a bid of $44,000 for blinds for the entire courthouse. The blinds Murrow received a bid for are similar to the ones that were in place before the new windows were installed. Murrow decided to ask for a price on a different set of blinds in hopes of reducing the cost. “It’s under $50,000, but it’s still a lot of money,” he said. After approval of minutes from the last regular meeting, payroll warrants, M
& O warrants for payment, blanket purchase orders and road crossing permits, the board gave approval for a transfer from the B-1A Sheriff’s full-time account to the B-1B Sheriff’s part-time account for the loss of a full-time employee that was replaced by a part-time employee. The board then moved to approve a resolution to change the date of Alfalfa County project JP#28639(04) ACSTP 202D(110)CI from the year 2015 to 2014. A total of 20 road crossing permits were approved during the meeting at $13,500. District 1 had 14 permits at $10,000; District 2 had one permit at $500; District 3 had five permits at $3,000.

Two Freedom school board seats up for election By Lynn L. Martin At their Monday, Oct. 29, board meeting the Freedom school board passed their annual election resolution calling for an election to be submitted to the voters of the district. An election for seat number 3 and seat number 4 will open for filing on Monday, Dec. 2, and close at 5 p.m. on Dec. 4 at the Woods County Courthouse. Concha Herrera holds the first seat open (3) and Jan Eden the second (4).Qualifications include living within the district for six months, holding at least a high school diploma or its equivalent, and no misdemeanors involving embezzlement
or any felony. No district employees can run for a board seat. At the start of the meeting, four speech students demonstrated portions of their speech performances that will be used in competition. The four students were Shyla Vance, Ashley Strehl, Emma Reed and Victoria Mullins. (A video of this may be seen at www.AlvaReviewCourier.com.) Superintendent Danny McCuiston said in his report that during fall break Luckenbill Mechanical came in and fixed the refrigeration problems. The cost was $4,750.

He expressed continued frustration (as did Principal Brett Hill) at the inability of the State Department of Education to deliver the A-F district report cards. He said they released a preliminary confidential grade on Oct. 16 with changes announced on Oct. 26. He stated that the state superintendent announced on Oct. 25 that she was delaying the official release of school report cards due to concerns regarding their accuracy. McCuiston said, “We are hearing a November release date for results of tests taken in April.” He and the principal mentioned the difficulty this places on districts if certain test areas need improvement but they don’t know yet what they are. Hill said basketball season kicked off the night of the school board meeting playing Vici in the Mooreland tournament. Regarding basketball, the superintendent said they just learned Monday, the day of the first game, that the uniforms ordered several weeks ago are still four to six weeks away from arriving. He said he was going to make a trip to southern Oklahoma the next day to a custom uniform maker who can craft very quickly uniforms that match the existing uniforms. He simply did not like putting the girl’s team in a situation where all do not have equivalent uniforms. Two employee changes were handled by the board. The resignation of Jovita Rhodes was accepted as she took a job at Freedom West. Then the board approved an extra-duty contract for Charles Hough to drive the north bus route one time per day in the mornings at a cost of $15 per day. In routine housekeeping votes, the board agreed to continue the ag education program contract with the career and technology department. They also agreed to accept credit Freedom students might earn in math and science at Northwest Technology Center. In response to increasing the level of participation in the Alpha Plus Learning system, Shannon East, the facilitator assigned to Freedom, visited twice in the month. Hill said they both have seen growth from their teachers, and the students are beginning to thrive under the program.

Lynn Says
Passionate email from Sally Eggleston By Lynn L. Martin The newspaper received this email Monday from a good friend: Sally Eggleston. I photographed her senior pictures when she was Sally Holder, and later photographed her wedding, and then even later, her kid’s senior pictures as they attended the Waynoka schools. Sally is one of the kindest and most sincere people you will ever know. (I don’t dare show her this column before it prints or she’ll make me take out the bragging-part.) Anyway,
about a year ago Sally came down with debilitating headaches. No over-thecounter medicines worked! No prescriptions worked! And for a long time, doctors couldn’t figure out what was wrong. We all know people who have migraine headaches and the misery those cause. Sally’s problem was about ten times worse. She simply couldn’t function other than breathe and get nourishment. With that background, here’s Sally’s letter to the editor. “I was raised in Alva back when there were Bugettes! When I married, thankfully I didn’t move too far away. Just to a farm between Alva and Waynoka where I continue to be a proud resident of Woods County. On a fateful date, Sept. 27, 2012, I was struck with devastating headache symptoms and attacks that seemed to be impossible to diagnose and unpredictable as to their occurrence. A drive from our rural address to the Share Medical Center was excruciating, and seemingly more so for my husband. I can’t image having to drive any further to a hospital. During my ordeal, we made approximately 16 emergency room visits and three hospital stays within a three-month period.
I can never express sufficiently my thanks for the state-of-the-art treatment, tremendous kindness and incredible compassion that I received throughout this last year from the wonderful staff at Share Medical Center. Quite frankly, I would not be living the independent lifestyle that I am now without the innovative medicine and treatments I received. The hospital and Dr. Colvert collaborated with Dr. Peggy Wisdom (also a native Alvan) from the OU teaching center to formulate a treatment that has me functioning normally (Or at least as normal as I ever was!) They even worked to give me a medical treatment at SMC that supposedly could only be done at OU Medical Center. This was necessary in order to avoid the dangerous trip (for me) back to Oklahoma City. We are truly blessed to have such a wonderful facility in Woods County. And even though I am unable to vote for “Yes” on modifying the sales tax restrictions because of my rural location, I would beg you to consider voting favorably to make the changes necessary in the sales tax (no tax increase) so we have a chance to keep our hospital.” Sally Eggleston

Freedom Carnival held
By Kaitlyn Gay Each year the seventh through twelfth grades at Freedom Schools participate in the school’s annual carnival. This was the first year for the seventh grade to be involved with carnival. There are four boys and three girls in this class. The games they decided to offer were “Extravaganza” and “Monster Shooting.” The Bowling Extravaganza was run by Paige Donnahoe and Elizabeth West. For two tickets a player got to roll a ball two times and for four tickets a player got five tries. There were a total of six pins to knock down. If a player was lucky and got a strike, with one ball knocking all six pins down, they won a prize and got to bowl again. Leniency was offered for children less than six years of age. Monster Shooting was run by Casey Luddington, Mason West and Pedro Ibarra. Monster Shooting is a creative piece that was designed by Luddington and enticed shooters to choose their own weapon and shoot monsters in the dark. Anyone who played got a prize. The carnival allows students to earn and build a fund for their senior trip. The seventh grade carnival couple was Allison Galindo and Cameron Denham.

Fairview man charged with burglary of Carmen-Dacoma School By Marione Martin Two Fairview men, who said they were stranded in Carmen when their vehicle ran out of gas in the early hours of the morning, apparently decided to do some exploring. One ended up with a second degree burglary charge. According to documents on file, on Oct. 6 about 5:30 a.m. Alfalfa County Dispatch notified Alfalfa County Deputy Sheriff Blake Trekell that several individuals were trying to break into the Carmen-Dacoma High School building in Carmen. The witness said there were individuals on the roof and one by a white Crown Victoria in the parking lot. The witness said one of the men made it into the building. Trekell asked dispatch to contact Helena Police Department to send an officer to assist him with the multiple suspects. When Trekell arrived he found a man asleep in the driver’s seat of a white Crown Victoria in the parking lot. He woke the man, identified as Karl Outhier, 24, of Fairview, and detained him. He asked Outhier what they were doing at the school. He said he and his friend ran out of fuel on the way to Fairview from the bar in Alva and were waiting on someone to come and give them fuel. He said they hadn’t been around the school. Trekell asked where his friend was, and Outhier said he thought he was in the car with him. Trekell saw a 2x4 board about three feet long in the passenger seat and
asked about it. Outhier said he didn’t know it was in the car, and he had been asleep the whole time. Trekell secured Outhier in his patrol unit and went to look for the other man, later identified as Ronald N. Anderson, 21, of Fairview. He walked over to the kitchen area of the school since that’s where the witness said someone went inside. He saw the door had been forced in and the jamb of the door had been split. He also saw that a piece of gutter hanging from the roof had been pulled down. He walked around the building the other direction and met Anderson walking toward him from the area of the metal sheeted addition. He ordered Anderson to stop and get on the ground which he did. Anderson said he was just walking around. When Trekell asked about any people in the building, he said there wasn’t ever anyone in the building. Trekell asked Anderson where he had been, and he said a bar in Alva. Trekell had observed that both men had white dust on their clothing which looked like they had rubbed against old chalky paint. The color was the same as the school building and its doors. He asked Anderson where he got so dirty, and he said he didn’t know. Trekell asked him about the 2x4 in the car, and he said they had to use it to prop the hood of the car open and they carried it with them. At this point Helena Police Officer
Loran Nusser arrived at the location. Trekell placed Anderson in Nusser’s vehicle to separate the two men. Trekell and Nusser climbed on the roof in the area lowest to the ground. They walked around where the individuals were reported to have been and saw wet footprints on the roof. They found a roof vent with a fin pulled from it which appeared to be fresh damage. Then they walked around the building and found a walk-through door open in the metal addition near where Trekell first saw Anderson. They walked around to the kitchen area where a person was reported to have been seen entering the building through a roof vent. Trekell saw indications that someone had recently climbed up the duct work on the side of the building. He climbed up and found a ventilation hood had been removed from a vent for the oven. He looked in the space, approximately 2 by 2 feet, and could see scuff marks where someone had been inside and attempted to enter through the filter above the oven but failed. When Trekell got off the roof, he noticed he had the same chalky substance on his uniform as the two men had on their clothing. Trekell made contact with Johnny Burkes who had a key to the building. When he arrived, the two officers cleared the building and found no one See Burglary Page 35

Chiefs theatre team named technical theatre champs at state, runners-up overall The Cherokee High School (CHS) theatre team production of Alfred Hitchcock’s “The 39 Steps” took second place overall last weekend at the OSSAA Class 4A State One-Act Contest in Mustang. Metro Christian School of Tulsa won the top honor with its production of “Sweet Nothing in My Ear.” In addition to being named runners-up, the Chiefs’ production earned the Technical Theatre Championship, and three cast members earned positions on the ten-person All-State Cast. “We had a great day,” “39 Steps” director, Jason Paris. said, “Obviously, you want to win overall, but when you compete at that level, it’s so subjective, and Metro Christian’s show was beautiful. It dealt with deaf culture and you could see the work that went into the cast signing realistically. Two of the three judges preferred Metro’s drama to our farce, and that’s fine. We had the best performance we’ve had so far, and we drew the 8 a.m. time-slot. So the fact that our kids stuck in the judges’ memory through eight shows that day is outstanding.” CHS sophomores Avery Bagenstos and Nicholas Cochran and freshman Dillon Cochran joined seven other students from across the state on the AllState cast. Bagenstos plays the central role of Richard Hannay while Nicholas Cochran plays the two female leads and the villain of the show. Dillon Cochran rotates through nine roles. Joining them
From left are Cherokee One Act cast and crew members Nicholas Cochran, Avery Bagenstos, Dillon Cochran, Dakota Knabe, Trevor Lucas, Jadon Hicks, Shelby Porter, Kelby Franks, Raegen Hester, Hayden Clem in an additional nine roles is CHS junior Dakota Knabe. “All six judges from regionals and state commented on the strength of each of our four cast members,” Paris said, “All four got on the Regional All-Star Cast, but we knew going in that asking for forty percent of the All-State Cast would be a stretch. There are two more plays at state than at regionals, and every actor there earned their trip to state.
We talked about the likelihood that one of us wouldn’t make it, and Dakota happened to draw the short straw this time. However, one judge did nominate all four of our actors for the top four positions on the cast. In the end, they went with Avery, Nick and Dillon, and they absolutely deserve it. All four of these guys are putting so much of themselves See Chiefs Page 62

Border Line Theatre ‘Radio Gals’ broadcast talent beyond the airwaves By Yvonne Miller The term “You’re not getting older, you’re getting better,” is dead on in describing the reprisal of Border Line Theatre’s musical comedy “Radio Gals.” Several of the current cast members appeared in BLT’s first production of “Radio Gals” in the fall of 2004. If you missed the opening weekend of the show last Saturday and Sunday, you still have the chance to see this sevenmember cast share their musical talent as powerful as the Horehound Compound Hazel Hunt and her “Hazelnuts” sell on the airwaves of her make-shift radio station WGAL. The insane, slapstick-style comedy the cast brings is like watching a mixture of the Carol Burnett Show set in the late 1920’s. Cathy Cox, a real-life music teacher for years, plays a retired one in “Radio Gals.” She reprises her role as Hazel Hunt, showcasing her still smooth-as-
butter voice and ability to play about any instrument she puts in her hand. Cathy has an uncanny knack of playing a seemingly innocent, yet all-knowing little lady
who reels you in when she refers to you as one of “Dearhearts.” See Radio
Gals Page 42

inside. Burkes said the damage to the kitchen door was fresh. He looked at the opened door on the metal addition and said there used to be a 2x4 that wedged against the door to keep it closed but he couldn’t find it. Trekell talked to Outhier, showing him the chalky paint on his uniform was the same as on Outhier’s clothing. Outhier said they had gone over to the water tower and attempted to climb it and he got white on him. He continued to deny ever being around the school. Trekell went to Nusser’s car and spoke with Anderson who said he had the white paint dust on him from climbing on the roof of the building. Asked about the door that had been forced open, Anderson said he had never gone in the building. Trekell asked if the 2x4 was the one behind the door, and Anderson said yes. When Trekell asked how he got it if he never went in the building, he said he just went in to look around while they waited on fuel to get there.
Trekell asked if he had been in the vent on the roof, and he said he crawled in it to look inside. Trekell then talked to the witness who had called law enforcement. He said he was asleep in his house and heard a loud thumping noise that he thought was car doors outside his house. He went outside and saw two men trying to force their way into the door and advised the sheriff’s office. He continued to watch the men as they got on the roof and began walking around. Trekell went back to Outhier and told him the witness had seen him on the roof so he had obviously been there. Outhier said he went on the roof and looked around but he never went inside. He said
he went back to the car and went to sleep and was unaware of what Anderson was doing. Outhier said he didn’t admit he was on the roof because he was scared because he knew he wasn’t supposed to be there. Trekell placed the two men under arrest. Before the two were transported to the Alfalfa County Jail, Anderson asked Trekell to take the screwdriver out of his pocket so he didn’t get in trouble for it. On Oct. 8, Outhier was charged with a misdemeanor of obstructing an officer. On Oct. 21, charges were filed against Anderson for felony burglary, second degree, and for public intoxication, a misdemeanor.

Radio Gals
As she has in past BLT productions, Janice Hill once again proves she is the master of playing an ever-swooning, giddy ditz with priceless facial expressions. The high, high notes she hits as a lyric soprano show that Janice still has her repertoire of exceptional talent as she plays the same role as a love-starved flapper-type she did in BLT’s first Radio Gals show. When Gary Jacobs enters the stage his presence is dominant. Whether lifting a dramatic eyebrow or making some hilarious, discombobulated move, you always know where Gary’s character stands. Playing a hard-nosed inspector set out to shut down WGAL, when Gary gets behind the microphone and sings “Why Did You Make Me Love You?” his tenor voice resonates why he is a born performer. Cherish Reeves may be a wonderful real-life wife and mother of a large family, but her true calling is the theatre. Give Cherish any role in a play and she’ll own it. As one of the “Hazelnuts,” she is a
natural doing crazy things like fluttering around stage as a butterfly or Egyptian princess, playing a kazoo while dancing, hula and tap dancing – you name it, she does it in this play. Standing at the WGAL microphone, Cherish shares her naturally pretty voice and endless imagination. The same can be said of her fellow “Hazelnut” Jenny Cantrell. Also a wife and mother of school-aged children, Jenny shines onstage. Whether she’s wearing an umbrella on her head, dancing, singing or playing an instrument, the petite Jenny shows she’s good in any role. Her voice is as pretty as she is. She can even make the words “testing, testing, testing,” melodious before the WGAL microphone. Brandon Poland gets the award as the gutsiest cast member as the tall man and real-life banker hams it up and puts on a silky purple dress, pink earrings and a blonde wig to sing, dance and play instruments as one of the infamous Swindle Sisters. He’s probably Hazel’s best non-
paying customer of Horehound Compound. Needless to say the crowd enjoys laughing at his, well, let’s say interesting moves. A real life musician, pianist extraordinaire, Jeaneane Fortune shares her keyboard talents throughout the play as she has for many BLT productions. All the while gussied-up, complete with a boa, Jeaneane is as funny as the clothes she and the other half of her Swindle Sister duo wears. “The Band” musicians who sit at the bank of the stage are Beverly Anderson, Holly Drake, Jerry McNamar and Justin Rugg. They are to be credited for keeping the music going while The Hazelnuts do everything else. Bob Gilliland sat in the director’s seat of this award-winning play. If you want to sit back, relax and enjoy watching a truly talented cast who has as much fun making you laugh as you do laughing, don’t miss the final performances of “Radio Gals” this weekend. Tickets are available at Shirts and More in Kiowa, 620-825-4074, for the Saturday night dinner theatre performance. Tickets will be available at the door for the Sunday 2 p.m. matinee. Performances are at the community building in Kiowa, Kan., home of the Border Line Theatre.

The Newsgram asked the opinion of your friends and neighbors on the hospital board about the sales tax restriction change election Nov.12th.
Terry Cline “Medicare and insurance company reimbursement reductions coupled with Obamacare mandates have disrupted health care nationwide, and have negatively impacted our hospital. Vote yes to allow the Hospital greater fiscal flexibility during this period of uncertainty while we wait for the dust to settle from the changes of the Affordable Care Act.”
Darlene Sanderson “A YES vote is crucial to the continued operations of SMC. Please vote YES on November 12.
Steve Knox “Share Medical Center is one of the largest employers of people in Woods County. A yes vote would help insure the Center’s ability to continue operations and provide jobs for our children and grandchildren and keep them in Alva.”
Halah Simon
Jason Gaisford We need a "Yes" vote to help secure the health care that you want in your community.
It was without hesitation that I moved back to this amazing community after graduating college. One reason that decision was so easily made was the fact that Alva offers quality hometown healthcare. Share Medical Center is a vital entity in this community. A vote yes on November 12th is a vote in support of Share Medical Center’s continued quality care.
Scott Brown Having a hospital in our community is vital to the recruitment and retention of businesses we have all come to depend upon. A yes vote assures SMC can continue providing quality healthcare we've come to expect in Alva.

into this production; it’s really an inspiring thing to see. They make you forget they’re just kids. They’re all real pros at this point.” New York Times theatre critic Ben Brantley described the original Broadway production in 2008 as an “absurdly enjoyable, gleefully theatrical riff” on the 1935 film. Recognizing the theatricality of Cherokee’s production, the judges awarded it the Technical Theatre Championship. “That was exciting,” Paris said, “We

have an incredible crew, and that includes the crew, who do a remarkable job of keeping the show going. You know, we have special back stage lighting effects, projection, fifteen-second complete costume changes, countless props coming on and off. We even have some doubling that audiences haven’t noticed yet. It’s an incredibly hard show. The reason we won the technical award is because the cast and crew make every performance look effortless and spontaneous. That’s the job of the stage crew, and these kids knock it out of the park.” Michael Cox, volunteer assistant director, heads up the stage crew, which
includes eighth graders Kelby Franks, Shelby Porter and Raegen Hester, sophomores Trevor Lucas and Jadon Hicks, and senior Hayden Clem. “I hope people come see the show,” Paris said, “It’s worth the drive to Cherokee, and it’s definitely worth the $5 ticket price. I’m especially proud of this show, and I think people are going to love it. One of our state judges wrote on his critique sheet that he hadn’t seen such a professional show in years.” The production runs this coming Saturday at 7 p.m. and Sunday at 3:00 p.m. at the Cherokee High School Auditorium.
