Bystanders help police stop fleeing suspect By Marione Martin A man is facing two felonies, three misdemeanors and a traffic charge after police chased his vehicle around Cherokee. It started at 1:24 p.m. on Sunday, March 18, when Cherokee Police Chief Chris Ferrell received a call from the dispatcher about a disturbance on South Pennsylvania Ave. According to the affidavit on file, Ronald McClary reported two men were outside his RV pounding on the door and windows. As Chief Ferrell drove to the site, he was stopped at Eighth and South Grand Ave. when he saw a black Pontiac Grand Am turning onto Eighth. He recognized it from the extensive damage as belonging to Travis Washburn and knew that Washburn did not have a valid license.
Ferrell continued to the scene where McClary identified one of the men pounding on his RV as Washburn. Ferrell drove to East Eighth and saw Washburn’s vehicle stopped at the intersection at South Massachusetts. The driver’s door was open and Washburn was hanging out of the seat. Ferrell called Officer Travis Flaherty to the scene. When Washburn saw Ferrell, he sat up, closed the door and drove away. Ferrell turned on his emergency lights, followed him onto East Fifth and turned on his siren. At 414 S. Pennsylvania, Washburn turned into a driveway continued through the yard and into the alley. He then crossed a grass yard on the north side of South Massachusetts. At that point, Ferrell lost sight of the vehicle. Some helpful bystanders eventually directed him to the area between 405 and 407 S. Pennsylvania where he saw Shane Harkins, 20, on the ground with a man sitting on top of him. The car was
stopped against a trampoline with both doors open. Ferrell saw another man running after someone who was fleeing. Ferrell ran back to his patrol car and drove to 412 S. Kansas where some men forced Washburn to the ground. Both Washburn and Harkins were arrested. Washburn denied he was driving the vehicle but Harkins, his passenger, confirmed Washburn had been the driver. Chief Ferrell later went back to check the damage from the chase. He logged information on tire tracks through yards, skid marks, damage to a fence and post, to a telephone junction box and a bush. He talked to Ralph Bentley who saw Washburn drive through his yard while four small children and nine adults were in the yard. Travis Wesley Washburn is facing felony charges of DUI and attempting to elude a police officer; misdemeanor charges of reckless driving, driving while license is under suspension, and obstructing an officer; and a traffic charge of transporting an open container of beer. Shane Nolan Harkins has been charged with public intoxication.

Is the four-day week at Freedom Public School going to end next year? Certified employment put on hold for more consideration By Roger McKenzie In his superintendent’s report given Monday night at the Board of Education meeting for the Freedom Public School, Superintendent Richard Gleave hinted that the continuation of the school’s four-day week might depend on “some test results.” Gleave noted he did not bring the 2012-13 school year calendar to the board for approval because “I need to wait for some test results to make sure our students are receiving the necessary instruction to continue with the four-day week.” He added, “We are going to get the kids the instruction they need.” Later in the meeting, an executive session to discuss whether or not to rehire 12 certified personnel ended with no decision at Monday night’s meeting of the Board of Education for the Freedom Public School. The board members accepted Superintendent Gleave’s recommendation to table the matter to allow more time for evaluation. The board did accept the recommendation of Gleave and his teachers that they adopt the Tulsa model of teacher evaluation and the McGill model for principal evaluation. These two models are among several choices that could have been adopted. Both are related and both are probably closer to previously used evaluation models. Senior class sponsor Bryant Weber gave board members a brief overview of
the upcoming senior class trip to Washington, D.C. and New York City. The trip for nine seniors and two sponsors (Jeanne Weber is the other sponsor) is already paid for thanks to fund-raising and donations. The seniors are still fundraising to help provide spending money. Weber outlined some of the itinerary which includes three days in each city. The trip is scheduled for May 13-19. He noted that although previous trips have helped in creating the itinerary, hotel prices have skyrocketed and that some new (and unfamiliar) hotels have been substituted to try to stay within budget. These hotels, although supposedly similar in terms of level of service and amenities, are in different locations. Weber added that neither he nor anyone else on the trip has personally seen these hotels. Elsewhere in his report to the board, Supt. Gleave talked about upcoming meetings. The entire school board will participate in the District 2 meeting on April 5 at the High Plains Technology Center. Supt. Gleave and Principal Charla Gleave will be attending separate Common Core State Standards meetings in Alva on April 5 and 11. A group of Freedom students is participating in soccer with Alva High School as part of a cooperative program. Gleave announced the first soccer game, for girls only, is set for Mar. 29 in Enid against that school’s junior varsity team.
Gleave announced that Alumni Week begins Friday, April 6. He also brought up a parent concern voiced to the school principal. The parent felt that a graduation date of Saturday, rather than Friday, would be more convenient for family members who have to travel a long distance to attend. No date change was discussed. A special board meeting was announced for April 12 at 7 p.m. Buddy Carroll will attend to present the district’s budget report. In other business, the board approved minutes of the previous meeting and the consent agenda which included expenditures for the Activity Fund and encumbrances for the General Fund and Building Fund.
Aline-Cleo yields winner at state science fair Aline-Cleo students participated in the Oklahoma State Science and Engineering Fair held March 7th-9th at the East Central University Campus in Ada. Kevin Cosper competed and placed 3rd in the Division II Behavioral and Social Sciences Category with his project entitled “Where’s Waldo?” In Kevin’s project, participants were asked to find the L or T in a group of the opposing letter. This project was done to see if there was a statistical difference between a certain age and genders’ reaction time and efficiency in finding a target amongst a group of proud distractions. Kevin is in the 9th grade at AlineCleo High School. He is the son of John and April Cosper, Cleo Springs.

Registered voters in Alfalfa County who want to vote by mail absentee ballot in next Tuesday’s Special Elections for Timberlake School District I-93 and Chisholm SD I-42 have missed the application deadline, County Election Board Secretary Kelly Stein said today. “They aren’t out of luck, however,” Stein said. Voters who want to cast absentee ballots still can do so at the County Election Board office on Friday, March 30, or Monday, April 2. A two-member, bipartisan Absentee Voting Board will be on duty each day from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. to assist absentee voters. “In-person absentee voters fill out an application form when they get to the office. They are not required to give a reason for voting absentee,” Stein said. “They are required to swear that they have not voted a regular mail absentee ballot and that they will not vote at their polling places on election day.” According to Stein, the Absentee Voting Board verifies a voter’s registration information and then issues the voter’s ballots. The voter marks the ballots in a voting booth and then puts them in the voting device. “It is very much like voting at a precinct polling place,” said Stein. Contact the County Election Board, located at 300 S. Grand Ave., Cherokee, for more information. The telephone number is 580-596-2718.

By Marione Martin A Cherokee man faces a misdemeanor charge in Alfalfa County after getting into an argument with his wife. According to the affidavit on file, Cherokee Police Chief Christopher Ferrell and Officer Tyler Flaherty went to 1002 S. Colorado Avenue on March 20 at 2:44 p.m. to investigate a reported domestic dispute. Upon arrival, they saw Alfalfa County Sheriff’s Deputy David Gebers talking to Jennifer Dooley. Flaherty talked with Jason Dooley who was sitting on the back of a pickup. Jason said he had an argument with his wife about not “getting onto the kids.” When he was getting into his pickup to leave, his wife took the keys. Jason said he “lost it” and pushed her several times. He said his hand slipped once and he got her in the face although he was not trying to hit her. Flaherty then talked to Jennifer Dooley, asking if she had any marks, and she showed him a cut lip saying that Jason hit her with an open hand. She said the argument started when Jason took some money that was hers that she needed for the kids. She took the keys so he could not leave. Jason Dean Dooley has been charged with domestic abuse in the presence of a child.

By Marione Martin According to the March of Dimes, smoking during pregnancy can lessen the amount of oxygen going to the baby. It may cause low birth weight, birth defects and prematurity. But a Cherokee man carried things too far when he slapped a pregnant woman who was smoking. Cherokee Police Chief Chris Ferrell and Officer Tyler Flaherty drove to Toni’s Express Stop in Cherokee on March 17 at 7:31 p.m. after receiving a report of a possible assault and battery. According to the affidavit on file, they talked to Jessica Schaffer who said an older man had driven up next to her and two other women. Schaffer, who is pregnant, was smoking a cigarette. The man, later identified as Theodore Pshigoda, 76, started yelling at her for smoking while pregnant. He got out of his pickup and was “in her face” yelling. She backed away a couple of times, but he followed. He then hit her on the left side of her face. He tried to grab her hands at which time Tambra Martin stepped between them and yelled at him for hitting a pregnant woman in front of her (Martin’s) kids. Pshigoda apologized for hitting her and went in the store. When he came back out, he apologized again and asked them to forgive him. Martin said no and told him she was going to call the police. The women described the pickup, and Chief Ferrell knew it belonged to Pshigoda. Ferrell drove to his residence where he asked Pshigoda what happened. He said he did a “dumbass thing”, that he tapped a woman on the face because she was pregnant and smoking. Pshigoda has been charged with assault and battery, a misdemeanor.

Emergency phone service agreement gets another signing By Roger McKenzie For a second time, Alfalfa County has signed an interlocal agreement with the City of Cherokee to once again put into motion a 24-hour Enhanced 911 service throughout the county. Alfalfa County commissioners signed the agreement document at their meeting on Monday. The document was signed earlier, but had some clarifications and corrections that needed to be made. Those corrections included giving the county more time to complete a contract with Woods County for mapping the phone numbers, fixing typos, and correcting some names. No major changes were made in the revised document. The county is still in charge of getting the telephone mapping done and the city will still operate and staff the E-911 dispatch center. The county will pay for the mapping from county funds—not from tariff revenues. The city will get those revenues and will contract for all required equipment. It will also be responsible for remodeling and furnishing a space at City Hall for the center. Rent, utilities, salaries and benefits of the dispatchers will all
fall on the city. In return, the county gives up the tariff money it has already received for E-911 and all future tariff revenues will go to the city directly as long as the agreement is in effect. The tariff is a fee that is part of each telephone user’s monthly phone bill. That county’s cost for getting the mapping done has been estimated as high as $60,000, although a lower figure is hoped for. Under the new agreement, the county now has 90 days, not the original 30 days, to get a contract signed with Woods County. Each entity will pay for the cost of updating signs and addresses that fall within their jurisdiction. The agreement is for a rolling one-year period that automatically renews unless either party notifies the other otherwise at least 120 days prior to the contract’s termination date. Any amendments to the contract must be approved by the written consent of both the city and the county. Stein hired After a lengthy interview process that gradually narrowed down over 20 candidates to four for outgoing Alfalfa County Commissioner’s secretary
Phoebe Angle’s job, the commissioners’ went into an executive session to pick one of the final four. After returning to the open meeting, they announced they will be hiring Kelsy Stein for the post. Stein is currently a student at Oklahoma State University, but will graduate in May when she will become a fulltime employee. Until then, starting on Friday of this week, she will work parttime while being trained by Angle. Commissioner Chad Roach’s comments were echoed by his fellow commissioners. He noted that all of the final four were well-qualified and deserving. The final selection in Stein’s favor came down to “splitting hairs,” Roach said. New record for road permits? In what is probably a record, even for the county’s current oil and gas boom, commissioners approved 75 road crossing permits. What was even more surprising was that District 1, which normally gets the lion’s share of paid permits, trailed both District 2 and 3 in total revenue received. Nineteen permits in District 1 and 2 by Western Electric were allowed free of charge since they are for the rebuilding of public services (electricity lines). The remaining permits brought the county $44,245. The division was as follows: 16 permits in District 1 totaling $2,750; 56 permits in District 2 totaling $34,250; and three permits in District 3 totaling $7,245. District 2 also received some rock (and its application on some District 2 roads) provided in lieu of payment for some of its permits. Commissioner Chad Roach said the arrangement is even more beneficial to his district than receiving a cash payment. Other business Commissioners approved junking some office equipment that is old and no longer being used. They also approved minutes and maintenance and operations warrants

He continued to share his love of singing through the years, as he blessed others with his voice at community and state events, weddings, funerals and celebrations. Next to Christ, Larry’s greatest love was his family. His time spent with family was most important to him and took precedence over all else. Some of his greatest joy was the time with family at their Colorado home. He also enjoyed sharing his passion for OU football with family and friends. For immediate and extended family, he was the one called upon when trouble arose or a level-head was needed. In his later years, his schedule and energy was focused around his grandchildren’s activities. Larry was considerate, selfless, compassionate and a true gentleman. He was an eternal optimist and always had words of encouragement to share with others. He truly believed that “Every day is a good day” and “It will all work out” and shared this philosophy with all. He is survived by his wife, Sue, of the home; a son, Don Jensen, Plano, Texas; daughter, Susan Smith and husband Todd of Fairview; grandchildren, Abby and Jensen, Fairview; a sister, Lacretia Wilson Hunter and husband Jim of Cushing; sister-in-law Jane Schultz
Driskell and husband Jerry of Blairsville, Georgia, numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and a host of friends. He was preceded in death by his parents.

Border Line’s ‘Lend Me a Tenor’ is a smash
A review by Yvonne Miller Put eight talented veteran actors on stage, add an experienced director, put them in a chaotic plot, and what do you have? It’s another Border Line Theatre production that has the crowd roaring with laughter and giving a standing ovation opening night. Written by Ken Ludwig, “Lend Me a Tenor,” is Border Line’s 41st production and will go in the history books as another of their big hits. You have a chance to see the show again this Saturday night, March 31, in a fire-grilled steak dinner theatre setting with doors opening at 6:15 at the Kiowa Community Building. For ticket info call Shirts and More in Kiowa at 620825-4074. A Sunday 2 p.m., matinee concludes the production – tickets are available at the door. The Characters Remember the BLT production “Leading Ladies” last spring when the antics of actors Matt Cantrell and Mick Gillig dressed as women had the crowd crying tears of laughter? The two bring an equally awardwinning performance this time. Mick plays Tito Merelli, a well-stuffed opera singer who is singing the lead in Otello, an opera based on Shakespeare’s play Othello first performed in 1887. Tito
is to perform it at the Cleveland Opera Company – the time is 1934. Let’s just say upon arrival at his hotel suite the best laid plans unravel and the famous tenor never makes it on stage. Mick’s animated facial expressions and Italian accent would make even Shakespeare proud. His tone rises to a soprano level as he spars with his wife played by Cathy Cox who is a fiesty mama mia. As the couple fights over Tito’s great passion, which is way beyond performing on stage, they get louder and louder and the crowd laughs harder and harder. As a wanna-be-opera singer and assistant manager of the opera company, Matt Cantrell is breathless and hilarious

on stage as he rushes to accommodate everyone – including his girlfriend, his boss, Tito and more. In a case of mistaken identity, Matt flawlessly and frantically switches characters, costumes, accents and more – easily winning approval of the audience. As usual Gary Jacobs is a scenestealer as the greedy opera company manager who will stop at nothing to make the show happen. Raising his eyebrows, squinting his eyes and using a mean tone, Gary obviously has fun playing the heartless character the crowd can’t help but love.

Colorado. Bob, with various partners, also operated a construction company in the late 50’s which built 178 houses in Northwest Oklahoma and Southern Kansas. The Public Installment Loan Company at the same time period was also one of his enterprises. Bob was a lifetime member of the Methodist Church and enjoyed being a Sunday school teacher and a lay speaker in that organization. He had been a Rotarian since 1940 and was a Rotary District Governor in 1956; a member of the Alva Masonic Lodge and a 32nd degree Mason since 1955. The Reneau family maintained a high interest in NWOSU having helped more than one student acquire a university degree. Bob served as Director of Development for the University Foun-
dation for many years. During this time its assets increased by millions of dollars. He was awarded an honorary Master’s Degree for his accomplishments with the foundation. Mr. Reneau was preceded in death by his daughter, Robin; his parents, and two sisters, Elizabeth Perry and Marjean Reneau. Bob is survived by his son Jim; two grandchildren, Julianne King; Jeff King and his wife Amie; two great grandchildren, Rylee and Ryan; a sister and her husband, Betty Lou and Olin Hodge; a son-in-law, Harry King, a special friend, Lorraine Malzahn and a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. Memorial contributions may be made in his memory to First United Methodist Church or the N.W.O.S.U. Foundation.

so demurely and perfectly plays a somewhat innocent, star struck, petite young woman who ends up in the darnedest places. When Cherish Reeves, with long wavy autumn hair and jewels, slinks onto stage in her form-fitting little black dress, one would not believe that in real-life she is the mother of nine. She obviously has fun playing a vixen who is after the great tenor. Playing the grand dame of the theatre scene in Cleveland, a tiara-wearing Janice Hill swoons over the Italian opera star and puts on airs as only she can do. Dressed as a bellhop who secretly wants to sing, Justin Rugg is as funny as the box hat he wears while doing everything he can think of to meet the famous tenor. Director Kevin Cox led the cast into a show that lends itself a high note.
