Contingency plans sometimes need a contingency plan, as the City of The Village has discovered on its $3.95 million project to rebuild Britton Road between May and Pennsylvania avenues. Virtually the entire milelong westbound lane of Britton Road has been torn out in preparation for reconstruction and traffic is currently reduced to one direction: eastbound. Consequently, traffic on the north side of Britton has been disrupted. According to
City Manager Bruce Stone, some impatient motorists have simply driven through their neighbors’ yards. The city’s trash collection service has been affected too. While construction is under way, The Village Public Works employees are rolling 90-gallon trash carts from residences in the area to the tennis courts at Harrison Park near Oxford Way, Stone said. After the carts are emptied by contractor Waste Connections, city workers roll the carts back to their proper locations. See BRITTON, Page 3

City buries electric line proposal By Mike W. Ray Staff Writer A suggestion that overhead electric lines in Nichols Hills should instead be buried was examined but shelved. “This idea has popped up several times in the past 10 years,” Mayor Peter Hoffman said. “We can’t afford to do it right now, but it is good to continue thinking about it and revisiting the issue from time to time.” “It’s something to think about,” but the project would be too expensive to undertake right
now, said Councilwoman Sody Clements. Engineering costs alone for a project to bury all overhead power lines in Nichols Hills might run $1 million to $2 million, said Pat Lewis, OG&E’s community affairs manager for Nichols Hills and other area communities. “Undergrounding” all power lines in the community would cost perhaps $25 million to $30 million, Richard Cornelison, a Nichols Hills resident who is an

Allied Arts names Keatings honorary chairmen Allied Arts hosted its annual Honorary Chair Event to recognize former Oklahoma governor the Honorable Frank and Mrs. Cathy Keating for their leadership on behalf of central Oklahoma’s cultural community. The event was held in the new BOK Park Plaza venue, located in the heart of downtown Oklahoma City. A tradition of more than 20 years, the Allied Arts annual campaign recognizes an individual or couple for their extraordinary contributions to the arts. Because of their contribution to and passion for the Oklahoma arts community through careers of public service, the Keatings were named 2019 honorary chairmen. Their commitment to enhancing quality of life throughout Oklahoma aligns with Allied Arts’ mission to ensure that arts are accessible to all. “The arts are an indispensable part of a city’s quality of life,” The Honorable Frank Keating said. “The elevating and civilizing role that the arts play hold us together as a community and make Oklahoma City a place of both learning and fun.” “The arts bridge the cultural, age and educational gaps in a community and Allied Arts certainly does that across Oklahoma,” Cathy Keating said. “Supporting over 40 non-

profit organizations their outreach impacts, enriches and changes lives. Their impact is immeasurable!” Allied Arts 2019 campaign co-chairmen John Higginbotham and Doug Stussi announced that more than $1.9 million has been raised to date. While progress toward the $3.3 million campaign goal has been made, it is still more imperative than ever that fundraising for the arts remains a community-wide effort and is supported by corporations and individuals at every level. The Honorary Chair Event is integral to the annual campaign as event attendees col-
lectively donated more than $684,000 this year. The focus of the evening was to thank the guests for being leadership donors to Allied Arts and to acknowledge the Keatings for their dedication to the betterment of Oklahoma. The program featured a surprise performance by the Keatings’ granddaughter, Catie Leonard, who sang “Many a New Day” from the Broadway musical, “Oklahoma!” Leonard performs with Allied Arts member agency, Lyric Theatre of Oklahoma. During the program, guests enjoyed music from Gene Stroman and the Fleener Brothers with the Rodeo Opry.

economic development manager for OG&E, told the City Council.

Heritage Hall junior Sukanya Bhattacharya was among the 1,383 students nationwide to be named a 2019 Carson Scholar. The Carson Schol-

spokesman Brian Alford said. “If we were to finance a project like that through a bond issue, we wouldn’t be able to do anything else – to our streets, our parks, water and sewer systems, our sanitation department, our police and fire departments – for 10 to 15 years,” Hoffman said. OG&E has 1,405 utility poles in Nichols Hills that carry 22.5 miles of primary overhead electricity conductor lines and support 466 transformers, Lewis said.
Besides the expense of concealing power lines, aesthetics also would be a critical consideration. Electric feeder lines might have to be trenched through flower beds and bushes, Cornelison indicated. And residents would have to choose the location – front yard or back yard? – of the trenches in which the electric lines would be laid, as well as the placement of accompanying concrete-pad mounted transformers. “Speaking just for myself, I would prefer
the back yard,” Councilman Steve Goetzinger said. “I would much prefer the back yard,” echoed Clements. And a padmounted transformer “would be pretty ugly in the front yard,” she added. The Nichols Hills Planning Commission recommended that City Hall notify residents they can bury the electric service line which extends from the utility pole to their house, but at their own cost, City Manager Shane Pate said.

The same problem will confront the Public Works Department when traffic is routed onto the newly constructed westbound lane and the eastbound lane is torn out, Stone said. That’s not all. According to the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT), which administers the Britton Road contract, 15 water lines cross Britton Road between May and Penn. Those lines are not buried deep enough to enable the sub-base soil to be

tilled and mixed with concrete millings, “and lowering the lines would have taken quite awhile at considerable expense,” Stone informed the City Council. So an alternate solution was implemented: 6 inches of compacted gravel, overlaid with 2 inches of “superpave” asphalt, followed by 8 inches of steelreinforced concrete pavement. “This change will increase the project cost, but we just don’t yet have that final dollar figure,” said Cody Boyd of ODOT’s Media and Public Relations Division. The cost of some other items will decrease because they “won’t be needed,” he said. In addition, during demolition
of the westbound lane of Britton the contractor discovered that AT&T had placed a fiber-optic cable inside a municipal storm sewer pipe buried in the middle of the street under the pavement, Stone said. The issue of placement of the telephone cable and replacement of the storm sewer line had not been resolved by the March 18 semimonthly city council meeting. Construction on Britton Road began in early January. Crossland Heavy Contractors is “about 15 percent into the project, with completion scheduled for early November,” Boyd said. However, the latest changes “may push the completion date back.”

TRACK ROUNDUP
Harding Charter Prep seeing growth in program
Irish 2nd at Clancy Classic
By Jason Jewell Sports Editor
With five gold medals and several other athletes in the top 10, both McGuinness track teams claimed second place last Saturday at the Clancy Classic. Both Casady squads also showed well, with the girls placing fourth and boys coming in seventh. Slater Ward led the host Irish boys with a pair of gold medals in the hurdle events. Ward won the 110meter hurdles in 14.98 seconds and the 300 hurdles by nearly a full second in 41.9 seconds. Preston Lynn also picked up a win in the pole vault, winning by 2-1/2 feet with a jump of 14 freet, 6 inches, just ahead of teammate Louis Ward in second. Emiline Henderson gave the Irish a sweep in the event with a gold-medal winning
When school leaders approached Cory Pocock about nine years ago to lead the fledgling Harding Charter Prep soccer program, he received a somewhat simple directive: “we just need somebody to help us finish games.” It’s nearly a decade later and not only is Harding finishing games, they’re also winning alot of them. The Harding girls squad qualified for the state playoffs three straight seasons and the Eagle boys are committed to making the postseason for the first time. “I really think both teams have a fighting chance to make the playoffs,” Pocock said. “That’s been our main goal for this season.” Unlike other Fridayland schools, Hard-
Rockets blank Carl Albert Mount St. Mary cruised to a 5-0 boys soccer win last week against Carl Albert. Devin Wedman and Louis Esteva scored two goals each to lead the Rockets (4-2). Abraham Garcia also added another goal. Earlier in the week, Mount St. Mary suffered a 2-1 loss in penalty kicks at Shawnee. John Cervantes scored the Rocket’s goal in regulation play. The Rocket girls, meanwhile, suffered a 4-1 loss to Carl Albert and a 2-1 setback against Shawnee. Ashleene Fuentes scored a goal against Carl Albert, while Stephanie Sherry netted a goal at Shawnee
ing Charter Prep doesn’t have a home field, so they play all their matches on the road. “We’re a well-traveled bunch,” Pocock said. “It’s kind of become a mantra. Our kids love putting on that uniform and playing their best.” So far this season, both squads boast identical 3-0 records. But, with district play just round the corner, the Eagles know district play offers a bigger challenge. “Things only get tougher when we start our district schedule,” the coach said. The Eagles open district play April 2 at Crooked Oak and April 5 at Fridyland rival Mount St. Mary. Junior Julissa Ponce provides the offensive punch for the Harding girls, accouting for five of the team’s 10 goals so far this season.
“She’s one of the few with club experience,” Pocock said. “She’s definitely our go-to scorer.” Junior defender Karen Rivera, Pocock said, is a “good technical player” in the middle, while Jazmin Ponce is another quality defensive player. Sophomore Tilly Booze starts for the second straight season at goalkeeper. A pair of twin brothers leads the boys squad. Senior captain David Mares is the defensive player and Hugo Mares is an attacking midfielder. Junior Malcolm Ogilvie and sophomore Jared Estrada are two technical players who compete on club teams. Ogilvie is the Eagles’ top scorer with 10 goals this season. “(Ogilvie) is a player that the other team has to account for all the time,” Pocock said.

aptain Marvel, the first Marvel Comics superhero movie with a female lead, is dominating the global box office. In its first 12 days, the film has amassed more than $770 million according to Box Office Mojo. It is on track to pass the D.C. Comic’s female led juggernaut, Wonder Woman, which accumulated a worldwide total of $820 million. Captain Marvel stars Brie Larson, who won the Best Actress Oscar for the 2015 film Room. She is joined by a spectacular cast of Oscar nominees including Samuel L. Jackson, Annette Benning, Djimon Housou, Jude Law, and Emmy winner Ben Mendelsohn. The days of serious actors avoiding superhero movies is long gone now that the comic book genre is so dominant. If you are curious to see what makes these films so popular around the globe, this is a good one to check out. Luckily, for those who could not care less about superheroes, there are also several independent films opening this week in Oklahoma City. The Wedding Guest, a global thriller starring Oscar nominee Dev
Patel from Lion and Slumdog Millionaire, plays all weekend at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. The film is directed by Michael Winterbottom, the British director who filmed The Killer Inside Me in Guthrie, OK, and then opened the 2014 deadCenter Film Festival with The Trip to Italy. Screening times are available at www.okcmoa.com/ films. APOLLO 11, the truly spectacular documentary about the 1969 moon landing, opens on Friday at Rodeo Cinema in Stockyard City. APOLLO 11 is directed by Todd Douglas Miller, who uses never released footage from NASA leading up to, during, and following the incredible 1969 moon landing. In Miller’s capable hands, the gorgeous historic footage becomes a nail biting thriller and a great reminder of how awesome our country is when everyone is working together. This is one of my favorite films from Sundance and
a perfect film for the entire family. Visit www.rodeocinema.or g for more details. Also on Friday, an independent film about West Texas oil called The Iron Orchard is making its Oklahoma premiere. The film is an intense drama based on Tom Pendleton’s 1966 salacious novel and stars Lane Garrison, who will be in town for a postscreening Q&A with producer Camille S. Chambers, who is a graduate of the University of Oklahoma and anxious to bring her film home to Oklahoma. Finally, a short film called ForgetMe-Not, inspired by Heritage Hall music teacher Billie Lewis, will screen at the Howard Theater inside Heritage Hall Middle School on Tuesday, March 26, at 7:00pm. The film, which made its Oklahoma premiere at the deadCenter Film Festival, is a touching drama about a girl overcoming grief with the help of a music teacher secretly battling Parkinson’s disease. Lewis has battled and survived the disease for 29 years. Director Rachel Meyer is a Charger alumna and successful filmmaker living in Los Angeles. The screening is free and open to the public.
NewView Oklahoma receives esteemed program accredita on Diabetes is now considered a pandemic, expected to affect 1 in 4 people by the year 2030. For those with low vision, diabetes management comes with a different and complex set of challenges. For this reason, NewView Oklahoma is pleased to announce their recent accreditation from the American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) for their diabetes education program. This program is the only one in the state and one of only 4 in the nation that caters its curriculum toward those who experience low vision. Marlene Snow, who is a
licensed occupational therapist for NewView, spearheaded the yearlong program development process as well as the application for accreditation. She will continue to serve as the program’s quality coordinator, routinely checking in on 10 program requirements. These requirements include developing a welltrained team and standardized curriculum, setting individual goals with participants and incorporating stakeholder input. “This accreditation raises the bar of our diabetes education program,” said Snow. “Being one of three low vision rehabilitation
centers in the U.S. to have accreditation sets us apart. This is one more way that we provided comprehensive services to our clients.” The program also fills a major gap in the diabetic community. Diabetic patients are at a higher risk for eye diseases like diabetic retinopathy, macular edema and glaucoma. Much of what prevents patients—especially those with low or no vision—from adhering to a care and maintenance plan is the lack of education. “If our patients can’t cook healthy meals or read their meter, then they’re much more
likely to experience a lapse in maintenance,” Snow said. Another major benefit of the AADE accreditation is that it allows NewView to bill Medicare for classes. Since many people with low vision also experience moderate to low income levels, this distinction is a major step forward for the visually impaired community. Patients should know, however, that Medicare will cover only one diabetes education class after vision loss.

Irish students embrace spring break F inally, spring break! I know myself and many other students at McGuinness have been waiting for this week of relaxation. Students are dropping their book bags and calculators this week and heading to the beach at Seaside, going skiing, visiting friends and family and having a respite from the many activities that have been occurring at BMCHS in the past month. And once this week of rest is over, the pace will only pick up from there. • Lent began on Ash Wednesday as students celebrated Mass to start the time of preparation for Easter. • McGuinness was honored to host renowned speaker Jason Evert as he gave his talk, “Love and Lust,” to the student body. It was a fantastic experience and students were both entertained and informed. Evert also spoke at Mount St. Mary’s high school, UCO and many other areas around the OKC Metro. Thank you Mr. Evert for a great speech! • The Speech and Debate team did very well at the OSSAA Regional tournament, placing third overall, and having 20 members performing at the State tournament. Special congratulations goes out to juniors Clare Jordan and Jacob Marino who won first place for Humorous Interp. Another big shout out for senior Cailin Harrington, who was awarded the prestigious Park Scholarship by North Carolina State University. The choir team also performed well at regionals and had six members who qualified for state, where they will compete in March and April. • Irish spring sports are now in full “spring” for the 2019 year. The track and field team ran at its first outdoor meet for the season, the boys and girls finishing eighth and fourth respectively. Boys and Girls soccer teams got their season off to a good start by beating Guthrie and Guymon, and the Tennis team finished second (girls) and fifth (boys) at the Ponca City Invitation-

Commissioner Calvey says Sheriff thwarted his and a district judge’s efforts to do an accountability check on every person in jail
O
N FRIDAY THE 8th, a story broke about Charles Lemons, who was held at the County Jail for 227 days without a court date. Lemons complained to Sheriff’s deputies at the jail that he had not been to court without result, until eventually a psychiatrist employed by the private jail medical contractor listened and reported the illegal detention. This inmate could have been anyone. He could have been your child or relative who simply failed to pay a parking ticket. This occurred in Oklahoma County jail,

KEVIN CALVEY not a prison. Around 80% of inmates held at the jail are “pretrial,” meaning they have not been convicted of any crimes, some people held there won’t be convicted of anything at all. I heard rumors about people being held too long in jail while (I was) campaigning for County Commissioner. A district judge and I wanted and attempted to do an accountability check at the jail in midFebruary. However, our attempt to identify and check on every person in the jail was thwarted by the Sheriff. If we could have completed our check, the lost inmate, Lemons, would have been
found a month earlier. It is inhumane and illegal to keep people in jail without due process of law. We taxpayers have had to spend too much money already on lawsuits in the last several years from negligent operations at the jail. I am committed to better oversight at our County Jail. I ask tough questions about deferred maintenance, jail procedures, jail contracts, and other issues. Some people don’t like me asking these questions and have attacked me for “rocking the boat.” So be it. Sound fiscal policy demands oversight, accountability, and transparency in all areas of government, including law enforcement. I welcome your comments, suggestions, and ideas on how we can improve management at our County Jail. My staff and I will work diligently to establish a more humane, just, and cost-efficient local criminal justice system.

Fridaylanders cast in Oklahoma City-based movie ‘All Terrain’ By Dr. Joe Fallin Special to OKC FRIDAY One of the first virtual reality movies was shot in Oklahoma City in the last two months. The movie “All Terrain,” an action thriller is the brain child of Director Ross Otterman who enlisted the help of one of Oklahoma's favorite sons, Gray Frederickson as producer. Ross is a Los Angeles-based directer and producer of several movies and television projects for NBC, CBS and Lionsgate, most recently the movies “Looking Glass” starring Nicholas Cage, and “Among the Shadows” starring Lindsey Lohan, shot in Brussels. Gray Frederickson was born and raised in Oklahoma City and has spent many years in the movie industry in LA. He is one of very few Academy Award recipients from Oklahoma for “The Godfather, part II,” as was his co-producer Francis Ford Coppola. Gray also coproduced made in Oklahoma films, along with Coppola. “The Outsiders” and “Rumble Fish” were both filmed in Tulsa. Frederickson also received an Oscar nomination for the movie “Apocalypse Now.” In addition to his movie making, he is
Wade Carter, Jaxon Muller and Dr Joe Fallin. also founder and chairman of the film school at Oklahoma City Community College. Gray, as producer of “All Terrain” brought Director Ross Otterman to Oklahoma and convinced him of how he could shoot a movie at a much lower cost than in Hollywood and still maintain a very high production value. Gray also convinced his old friend actor George Hamilton to come to Oklahoma for an appearance in the movie along with another LA based actor Marshall Bell, who played the lead in the movie. The movie used numerous shooting locations in and around Oklahoma City, including Gaillardia Country Club and Ackerman McQueen Agency, along with nearby Guthrie Airport, Choctaw Tech Center and the
Marland Mansion in Ponca City Several of the cast members and extras where chosen from Oklahoma City and Fridayland. Dr. Joe Fallin played the part of what else a doctor (Dr. Koz). In the movie Dr. Koz is placing cybernetic implants in the brain of patients to give them super human powers. Other cast members in a bar scene at Gaillardia Country Club were Fridayland residents Jerry Richardson and Wade Carter, both familiar actors in TV and film; Kim Rainbolt; Vicki Rankin; Fran Kozakowski; Dr. Jim Lowe; Jack Wheeler; Dr. Randy Sukman; Tera Sukman; and Dr. John Ainsworth whose daughter Lexi Ainsworth is an actress on TV's General Hospital. Other Oklahoma City cast members in the Gaillardia Country Club scene are Teresa Preir and Andrew Lopez. Several members of the crew, Jaxon Muller, producer; Obi Nwokolo, assistant producer; and Warren Hoover, production assistant; are recent Oklahoma film school graduates. The Director Ross Otterman is looking at a possible premiere of “All Terrain” in Oklahoma City in late 2019 after post production is completed.
