Oklahoma Cityans love their hometown
Art Inspires Conservation Misi goes to party, above left. Jack Hanna’s Ambassador Cheetah Misi is so used to going to parties she doesn’t need her dog, Cash, to travel with her anymore to keep her from being startled. She owns the room the minute she walks into it. Dick Sias hosted the Meetah Cheetah party in his home this year to raise money for the Cheetah Conservation Fund in Namibia. Founder and CEO Dr. Laurie Marker came from Namibia to attend, as did two international wildlife artists. D. Arthur Wilson, of artgonewildstudios.com, donated an original pastel on European Suede and a charcoal portrait done live of Misi, while she greeted guests. Successful British artist Layla Andrews, laylaandrews.com, came from London to donate a painting for the auction and attend the OKC event. Above right, District Judge Natalie Mai visits Misi for a photo opportunity with the cheetah and Columbus Zoo’s Jen Dew and Katie Stevens. Next week: More photos from the gala by Fran Kozakowski and Misi’s story.
Overall, Oklahoma City residents are happy with their hometown. The only real point of contention is the streets. Resident satisfaction ratings with Oklahoma City as a place to live are among the highest in the U.S., according to this year’s Citizen Survey. “We’re proud of the way residents feel about Oklahoma City,” said City Manager Craig Freeman. “We’ll use the resident feedback to focus on where we need continued improvements. With the leadership of our City Council, we’re working to maintain the city’s momentum and our residents’ support.” Nearly nine-out-of-10 residents think Oklahoma City is an “excellent” or “good” place to live. The national average for large American cities (population 250,000+) is about
half of the residents. Street conditions have been the city’s top challenge almost every year. Only about 11 percent of residents are happy with street conditions, the same as last year and up 2 percent from 2017. About four-in-five residents list it in their top three priorities for the next two years. The voter-approved Better Streets, Safer City program is under way now to address those concerns and more. Most of the $1.2 billion infrastructure investment program is dedicated to streets and related projects. Visit okc.gov/BetterSafer for maps, lists and more. Chris Tatham of ETC Institute, delivered the survey results to the City Council. The full survey is available at okc.gov/satisfaction.
Holocaust survivor to share story of triumph at OCCC By Vicki Clark Publisher
EVA SCHLOSS
One of the few Holocaust survivors still living is coming to Oklahoma City to tell her story. She has a strong message. On a phone call from London, she shared insights into her lecture on Nov. 21 at OCCC Visual and Performing Arts Center. “Wars are the evilest. We have to uplift each other.” Eva Geiringer Schloss, age 90, is a Jew born in Vienna. Shortly after the
annexation of Austria by Germany, her family fled to Belgium then to the Netherlands. In Amsterdam, she met and became playmates with her stepsister Ann Frank. Betrayed by a double agent in the Dutch underground, Eva and her family were captured by the Nazis and sent to Auschwitz. Her father and brother died there. Eva and her mother were barely alive when they were freed by Soviet troops in 1945. “In the camp, I never
Oklahoma women join together to end Alzheimer’s Two-thirds of those living with Alzheimer’s disease are women. Two-thirds of Alzheimer’s caregivers are daughters. There is no denying that women are at the forefront of the Alzheimer’s crisis, which is why Karen Delaney has joined the Alzheimer’s Association in the fight to find a cure as the 2019 Alliance of Women for Alzheimer’s Research and Education (AWARE) Luncheon co-chairperson. Karen’s journey as an Alzheimer’s caregiver began eight years ago when she noticed her
mother, who was living out-of-state at the time, started mismanaging her finances. Since then Karen has moved her mother into a memory care facility nearby, but still remains her primary caregiver and advocate. This devastating disease places an unbalanced burden on women at work and at home, forcing them to make unwanted choices about their careers, relationships and other life decisions. Karen has had to postpone her personal retirement plans
gave up hope that I would survive,” she said. For years, Eva could not talk about the horrors she had witnessed. “I knew I had a story, but I didn’t want to talk about it,” She said. “Nobody wanted Jews in America, Canada everywhere … nobody would let Jews into their country when Hitler wanted to get rid of us.” “(Even today) the world doesn’t want refugees. They are not welcome.” After Anne Frank’sdiary was discovered and
released, Eva started writing her first book. Then she began her international lecture tours. Eva’s story is sensational and difficult to imagine, yet her insightful message reminds us that life is precious and fragile. The creative spirit is stronger than fear, the power of good is immeasurable and love makes a difference. Her lecture “A Story of Triumph” will be Nov, 21, 7:30 p.m., at OCCC. Tickets start at $18 and are available at tickets.occc.edu.

Casady School embarks on immersion process Casady School’s Strategic Academic Plan led the School on a two-year process of developing a new schedule for Upper and Middle Divisions for the 2019-2020 academic year that would represent a commitment to both the wellbeing of its students and the mission of the School. Included in the development of the schedule was the formation of Immersion Days for the entire student body. “Immersion Days are a unique, fun, oneof-a-kind, and memorable experience,” Josh Bottomly, associate head of school for academics said. “Our vision and goal is that each Immersion Day provides our students and faculty a ‘minirally point’ each trimester that delivers on our strategic priorities of student wellness, student engagement, durable learning, community engagement and skills/knowledge.”
Friday, Oct. 18 was the first of three Immersion Days the Casady Community will take part in during the 2019-2020 academic year. Immersion Day looks different at each stage in the Casady experience. The following list is a breakdown of the Immersion Day experiences that took place both on and off campus during the morning sessions: PreK : Field trip to Parkhurst Farms Pumpkin Patch. Kindergarten : Field trip to Space Museum. Grades 1-4 : Continuation of Space Week with virtual field trip to the moon video experience and science
project. Grades 5-8 : Immersion Day activities planned for the year focusing on the School Pillar, “Educating in Mind, Body and Spirit.” This Immersion Day focused on “Body” and students participated in physical activities such as yoga, frisbee golf, Quidditch, roller skating, and the Shiloh Ropes Course. Grades 9-11 : Students and faculty engaged in community service for Operation Christmas Child, Jesus House, and Habitat for Humanity. Grade 12 : Seniors took part in a college application workshop with Casady’s College Counseling Team.
Following the conclusion of the student Immersion Day, Casady faculty and staff had an afternoon of professional development built into their See CASADY, Page 7

FOOTBALL | WEEK 9 PREVIEW: GUTHRIE AT MCGUINNESS • 7 P.M. FRIDAY
Irish face Guthrie for spot in district title game By Jason Jewell Sports Editor Coming off what coach Brian Pierce called its “most complete game,” McGuinness just has to get through Guthrie this Friday to set up a District 5A-2 title game at Carl Albert in Week 10. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. at Pribil Stadium. Guthrie (3-5, 2-3), a perennial playoff team, has struggled this season with injuries and has been eliminated from playoff contention. However, the Class
5A No. 1 Irish (7-1, 50), which won 29-7 at Piedmont last Friday, aren’t taking the Bluejays lightly. “They have been a traditional power house in our district,” Pierce said of Guthrie. “With (Friday) being Senior Night, we’re going to approach this like any other game and want to send our seniors out with a win.” Three senior leaders, according to Pierce, include offensive lineman Ben Tawwater, tailback Dominic Richardson

held him out as a precaution. If we had needed him, he probably could have played.” Walker provides leadership on defense.
“Brynden is one of our more vocal leaders,” the coach said. Along with Richardson and the O-line, quarterback Luke Tarman has taken charge of the Irish offense. “(Against Piedmont) Luke really took the game over,” Pierce said. “He put the team on his shoulders and played lights out.” The Irish defense also held Piedmont’s trip-option offense in check, thanks to Walker, along with Tawwater, Brown and Andrew Chambers.
FOOTBALL | WEEK 8 SPOTLIGHT: ANTLERS 47, PIRATES 3
Travis leads Deer Creek to win at PCO By Jason Jewell Sports Editor With the game tied at 3-3, Deer Creek pinned Putnam City inside its own 15-yard line early in the first quarter. Antler defensive back Elijah Allen intercepted a pass and returned it to the 9yard line. On the next play,
tailback Tyler Travis scored one of his four touchdowns and helped propel Deer Creek to a 47-3 over the Pirates last Friday night at Pirate Stadium. “Eli made a great play on the ball to pick it off,” Deer Creek coach Wade Standley said after the game. “That really kick started our offense.” Travis scored on a 29-yard run about midway through the second quarter and finished off an eightplay drive with a 2yard TD with 2 minutes left in the half. The Antlers got a big defensive stop just before halftime when lineman Reed Eden

Travis scored on a 58-yard run on Deer Creek’s first series of the second half and Davis added a 2-yard TD run. Quarterback Gavin Houska’s only pass of the second half was an 18-yard touchdown to Logan Ward. Ward also kick a 30-yard field goal and hit all six extra-point attempts.

Native Voices O
klahoma’s Wes Studi won an honorary Oscar last Sunday at the Governor’s Awards, becoming the first Native American to win an Academy Award. Studi, a full-blood Cherokee from Nofire Hollow, has appeared in more than 90 movie and television roles, creating memorable characters in legendary films since his breakout in 1991 Oscar winner Dances with Wolves. His most recent critically acclaimed role was in 2018’s Hostiles, costarring Oscar winner Christian Bale, who presented the Oscar to Studi at the ceremony. Two of Studi’s most successful collaborations have been with Oklahoma filmmakers: The Last of the Mohicans, produced by Oklahoma City’s Hunt Lowry; and, The New World, directed by Bartlesville’s Terrence Malick. Studi also appeared in one of the biggest selling films of all time, Avatar, directed by James Cameron, who is married to actor, author, and educator Suzy Amis from Oklahoma City. Wes Studi attended the deadCenter film Festival in 2011 with his Oklahoma produced film Dome of Heaven. In 2013, Studi was inducted to the Hall of Great Western Performers at the Western Her-
itage Awards and then flew back in June to present Hunt Lowry with the Oklahoma Film Icon Award at deadCenter. In 2014, Studi returned to be honored as an Icon himself. While at the festival that year, he was cast as the lead in a short film by Oklahoma based artist and filmmaker Steven Judd. That film, Ronnie BoDean, brought Studi back to deadCenter in 2015. Another awardwinning trailblazer from Oklahoma will be featured on PBS this month. Lawton’s N. Scott Momaday, the first Native American to win the Pulitzer Prize, will be featured in the gorgeous feature length documentary about his life and work, Words From a Bear, directed by fellow Kiowa artist Jeffrey Palmer. The film airs November 18th as part of the PBS American Masters series. In the documentary, fellow Oklahoman and newly appointed U.S. poet laureate Joy Harjo explains how Native American writing was relegated to the folk section until N. Scott
Momaday’s House Made of Dawn won the 1969 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. That book, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, rescued Harjo’s work and placed it correctly in the poetry section, which she now represents as laureate. Words From a Bear debuted at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival before screening at deadCenter this summer, where it was awarded Best Oklahoma Feature by the Oklahoma Film Critics Circle. Momaday and Palmer were both on hand for a great discussion after the film. And, 284 people downloaded House Made of Dawn through a deadCenter partnership with the Ronald J. Norick Downtown Library, making it the biggest online book club in the library’s history. Kyle Kauwika Harris, a Choctaw filmmaker from Poteau, joins Jeffrey Palmer as one of the new generation of storytellers making their mark across the country. Harris has directed two award winning films: the 2017 feature documentary I Stand: The Guardians of the Water about the Sioux Nation Standing Rock pipeline protest, and the 2019 short film Los Americanos, which won the Oklahoma State Fair Film Festival in September.

Casady School names Crossno dean of students C
hange is inevitable. In the Upper Division, there are new faces, a new schedule and a new dean of students. Kevin Crossno is our new dean of students, but he isn’t completely new to the Casady community. During his previous time at Casady, he taught fifth and seventh grade history and assisted the theatre department with Middle and Upper Division productions. Additionally, he served as the assistant division director for the Middle Divi-

sion. For the past six years, Crossno was the head of the Intermediate and Middle School at All Saints Episcopal School in Tyler, Texas. Thankfully, he decided to return to Casady where he enjoys the “feeling of support and community that you feel when you walk around the campus.”
KEVIN CROSSNO
Crossno was born and raised in Holdenville, a small town in south central Oklahoma. He earned a bachelor of science in business/organizational administration
from Oklahoma State University and a masters of arts in educational leadership from Southern Nazarene University. Crossno was inspired to go into education because he enjoys “the energy, the possibilities, and the promise of young adults.” As the new dean of students for the Upper Division, Crossno wants “to empower students to plan and imagine a better Casady and then work to make it happen.” He is ready to listen to students’ ques-

Fall sports are coming to a close, and winter sports are just getting started. • The volleyball team went to the 5A state tournament. Despite the games being in Tulsa, a large student section traveled two hours to support the team. The team defeated Cascia Hall in the quarterfinal match before sadly losing to Bishop Kelley in the semifinal over five sets. The team had a great season and the whole school is proud of their efforts. Seniors on the team are Ella Condon, Connor Donovan,

tions and comments. Crossno is also looking forward to meeting with students and learn about their goals for the upcoming year. At the beginning of the 2019-2020 school year, Head of School Nathan Sheldon has encouraged us to find the “20 seconds of insane courage” that will help us achieve a successful year. Crossno has a similar philosophy for how students can approach this new school year. He believes that Upper Division students should “experi-
ence life by trying as many new things as you can. Be comfortable with saying, ‘I don’t know, but I will find out.’” Both of these beliefs require some amount of bravery, so feel free to email Crossno or flag him down around campus when you’re in need of some “insane courage,” to try something new or to figure out a problem. Good luck with this new school year, Cyclones and hopefully you will have the courage to step out of your comfort zone!

Promises Made, Promises Kept I became a County Commissioner to do my part to help reform the county jail, not only the justice system and treatment of inmates, but also the workplace of jail employees. In addition, I have also promised to be a responsible custodian of taxpayer money. Establishing a jail trust was the primary job our office took on to address both these issues. Working with other elected officials and many in the community, we were successful in creating the Jail Trust, formally known as the Oklahoma County Criminal Justice Authority. One priority to ensure that Sheriff’s employees are taken care of during this transition. In September, I promised that the county would do whatever possible to
ensure officers at the jail stay on county benefits when the Trust takes over. The county’s great insurance and retirement policies are a huge draw, and a reason why employees tend to work here for years. My office has worked to ensure that this promise will be kept, with success thus far. On our Oct. 9th meeting, the
commissioners approved a contract with McAfee and Taft law firm, approving outside counsel to draft appropriate amendments to the county’s health and benefit plans; to ensure eventual employees of the Trust will retain county benefits. This came shortly after a DA opinion that the current policy should be amended to accommodate trust employees. I thank County Employee Benefits Director Jon Wilkerson and his team for the incredible work they do, making Oklahoma County a quality employer. Also thank you to David Prater, our District Attorney and his staff, for their hard work providing clarity for our road ahead. I look forward to these changes being made.
Never before: incredible soft power Dear Editor, Never before has America so vividly witnessed the incredible soft power gifted to our economy by the domestic oil & gas production that has buffered all of us from foreign oil shocks. The aftermath of the missile strike on Saudi oil production was met by most Americans with a yawn rather than a race to a gas station line. The climate change marchers have valid points but are making a mistake in casting this as an Us vs. Them with the oil industry. The resulting uncertainty for the economy and division among our people for what is surely an oil driven, near term future is counter productive. As a minimal, card-carrying Methodist, even I’m surprised at the

America’s economic present is thankfully floating on a sea of our own oil but the declining rig counts bode ill for the maintenance of this oil buffer.

Calm Waters hosts free Winter Grief Workshop Calm Waters Center for Children and Families, the only grief center in Central Oklahoma offering free grief support services to children and families, will host a free Winter Grief Workshop, on Saturday, Nov. 9, from 2-4 p.m., at the Yukon First United Methodist Church, 400 Elm Avenue. Calm Waters’ Winter Grief Workshop is a free event to help children, adults and families prepare for the holiday season and cope with the death of a loved one or a recent family separation
due to divorce, deployment, deportation or incarceration. "For many children, this is their first Thanksgiving with Mom and Dad in separate houses and for other families, it’s their first Christmas since Grandma died and it’s difficult to organize expected family events,” said Heather Warfield, LMFT, Calm Waters’ Program Director. “Our Grief Workshop allows hurting families to learn new ways to manage loss during a time of year that holds high expectations for joy and togeth-
erness.” Calm Waters’ on-staff therapists will lead a holiday-focused curriculum to help the entire family navigate loss and change through concurrent adult and children’s activities and micro-support groups with each experience providing tools to cope with loss during a time of year that is usually filled with joy. The end-goal for attendees is to learn how to grieve together while honoring holiday traditions and memories. Register at calmwaters.org/grief-workshop.
