Homer B. Clonts was born on Feb. 18, 1924, in Bluffton, Ala., the son of Presley R. (1884-1952) and Martha Donaldson Clonts (18881966). The family moved to Menlo, Ga., where Homer graduated from the local high school in 1941 as valedictorian of his class. After working for Combustion Engineering Co. in Chattanooga for a time, he joined the Navy where he served from 1943 to 1945. He was on three ships as a Navy signalman, serving longest on the staff of Adm. Richmond K. Turner, who was then commander of the Amphibious Forces of the Pacific. He participated in the invasions of the Marshall Islands,

Guam, Iwo Jima and Okinawa, and, finally, in the liberation of the Philippines. His aptitude for writing a vivid description of an event is reflected in a large volume of stories he wrote during his Navy career, many in graphic detail, especially those about Kamikaze attacks. Some were written on the back of a large map and would be published much later, in April 1985, in a story he wrote for the 40th anniversary of the invasion of Okinawa. Upon his discharge at the end of World War II in 1946, he entered the University of Tennessee intending first to become an engineer. He soon found that physics and calculus were not to his liking and entered the school of journal-

ism. He wrote for the Orange and White, the student newspaper, and also worked for the UT public relations office. Before his graduation, he took a job as editor of the Carthage (Tenn.) Courier, a small paper where he received valuable experience reporting, editing and acting as his own photographer. On Feb. 7, 1948, Homer Clonts and Ada Bowers (1922-2013) were married. Theirs was a close partnership. Early in their marriage, when a local train-truck collision killed 10 people, he pressed his new wife into action as the photographer while he gathered the facts and wrote the story. In 1949 Homer Clonts joined the staff of the Knoxville News

Sentinel as a reporter. His story of the segregation crisis in Clinton in 1956 represents some of his best reporting. When John Kasper incited a mob, there were several reporters shoved around and more than once their lives were threatened. Clonts started his story with these words: CLINTON – A mob of about 1,500 persons, whipped white-hot by a fiery segregationist imported from Alabama (originally from Greenwich Village and Washington, D.C.), made law and order a mockery in East Tennessee last night. When they started to ease off, a mob of teenagers fresh from a To page A-3

Vets looking to reclaim Sharps Ridge By Betty Bean Before the Knoxville chapter of the Women Veterans of America started talking about it, who remembered that Sharps Ridge Memorial Park was dedicated to veterans? Earlier this Jessica King year, WVA Commander Jessica King started thinking about the ethical responsibilities of using donated money wisely. “We decided to have a big project to spend our money on, rather than just sharing it with other non-profits, and we thought we’d ask the city to find us a park that we could help clean it up and dedicate to veterans. In the process of my research, I discovered that Sharps Ridge was dedicated as a memorial to veterans when it opened in 1953.” When she reported this information back to city officials, they asked where she had found the

information. “On the city website,” she said. She also found evidence of the park’s purpose in the form of a stone monument halfway up the ridge that says, “Dedicated in the year 1953 to veterans of all wars. Made possible by subscriptions from public spirited citizens of Knox County, Tennessee.” What emerged after meetings

with Knoxville Parks and Recreation director Joe Walsh and parks maintenance superintendent Mike Harris is a plan to clear the brush around the scenic overlook on the south side of the ridge and to establish an overlook on the north side as well. The stone monument, which has been obscured by heavy overgrowth, would be moved to the south overlook, which has a com-

manding view of the Smokies. Flags will be placed there, and the group is going to look into the possibility of paving the area with memorial bricks. If fundraising efforts pick up, they will also look at installing picnic and playground areas. Some of the property on the ridge is in private hands, including a swath owned by WATE-TV, whose general manager Dean Littleton attended last week’s WVA meeting. Littleton told the group that WATE is preparing to take down one of its towers, which will free up more space for recreational use, and likely will cooperate with their efforts in any way possible. WVA is looking to fill volunteer positions on construction, landscaping, fundraising, accounting and finance, procurement, public affairs and marketing committees, as well. King started a fundraising page asking for help and has been disappointed with the results. Info: www.wvachapter44 .org and the fund-raising site, gofund me.com/sharpsridge

Back injury patient finds relief at Tennova By Shannon Carey Marco Zurita-Mejia’s shortterm goal is to do three miles on the upper body arm ergometer. His long-term goal? That he will one day be able to walk again. Marco worked in construction until an accident caused him to fall from the second story of a building. Now, he has limited function in his legs. Most days he uses a wheelchair, but once a week he can walk with a cane. He works out four days each week at Tennova Health & Fitness. On Fridays, he adds a massage from the Spa Services department to help relax his overworked upper body and increase muscle tone in his legs. Spa coordinator Tina Vaught said therapeutic massage can help clients with a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, muscle tightness, headaches and general muscle aches. “Pain relief is on the opposite end of the spectrum than someone who just comes in to relax,” said Tina. Marco often exercises in the pool at Tennova Health & Fitness to get a lower-impact workout. He said the Tennova massage therapists tailor each session to his needs that day, usually doing a combination of relaxation and deep tissue massages. “They ask where I feel tight, then work with that a little longer,” he said. “All of our services can be customized based on the individual’s goals for the session,” said Tina. “Therapeutic massage is an effective modality that can help decrease muscular tension.” All Tennova’s massage therapists are state-licensed and complete 25 hours of continuing education every two years to keep up with the latest techniques. Marco said all staff members at Tennova Health & Fitness are friendly and professional. “I recommend Tennova 100 percent. When I’m coming in every day it’s better,” said Marco. “I feel my strength coming back. That is my goal coming here, to get strong and walk again.”

Just before he walked into the Oakwood Lincoln Park Neighborhood Association meeting last Monday, people were wondering aloud why city council member Finbarr Saunders has drawn opposition while his at-large colleagues are running unopposed. When Saunders took a seat, someone asked him that question.

Betty Bean “I don’t know,” Saunders said. “Marshall Stair and George Wallace are unopposed, and I’ve got three!” So why has Finbarr Saunders, who occupies Seat C, emerged as the Charlie Brown of the 2015 city council races? Pond Gap community leader David Williams, a math tutor by profession, has a list of Saunders’ shortcomings, beginning with the demolition of the Forest Heights bridge over the interstate15 years ago, which rerouted north-bound traffic through Williams’ neighborhood. Williams has other issues, but the blown-up bridge is No. 1. “Taking that bridge down put 3,000 extra cars on Hollywood Drive,” said Williams. Saunders, as presi-

dent of the We s t w o o d neighborhood group, suppor ted the bridge closing. Williams, who calls himself “an Absher average Joe,” is campaigning doorto-door and is also aggravated by a number of other issues, like homelessness and the new sidewalks on Sutherland Avenue, which already had sidewalks, unlike other neighborhoods that have asked for them, to no avail. “We didn’t want them or ask for them and the construction has cost our local businesses a lot of money,” Williams said. Paul Bonovich, president of Inventory Supply in Alcoa, said he’s running against Saunders because he doesn’t think term limits should equal eight years in office. “The issue for me is not beating Finbarr – the thing I don’t see too much happening is we’re not having enough public discussion. That’s what the process should be about,” said Bonovich. He said Saunders “took a pass” on tackling the city’s pension issues by accepting a “quick fi x” recommendation, voted to override part

of a taskforce recommendation regulating sign heights and voted to approve a developer’s rezoning request to build 20 condos on the H.E. Christenberry property on Kingston Pike coupled with a promise to preserve the historic Christenberry home, which was demolished this spring. Event planner and downtown guy Kelly Absher is running a slick social media campaign. He said he’s got nothing against Saunders. “I’m running against Finbarr strictly by default. I’m friends with Marshall and know George Wallace and just don’t know Finbarr. Some ask why I didn’t just wait until he’s term limited – well, now is a good time, and I can’t predict the future.” Absher said big issues, like pensions and signage, have been largely resolved. “My focus – and my passion – is helping local businesses succeed. That is the cornerstone of our city and the foundation of my campaign – commerce, com-

munity and culture.” Saunders said closing the Forest Heights Bridge was some t h i ng he and Williams will Williams have to agree to disagree about, and that signage and pension problems will need ongoing attention. “The sky won’t fall and the signage height regulations aren’t going to hurt business. As we noted the night we voted, there’s work to be done… We’re funding our pensions as our actuary tells us we must, but we have an approximate $180 million unfunded liability that we’re working down.” He said vote on the Christenberry property was aimed at saving the house, and the developer’s plan was in sync with the rest of the neighborhood. “That stretch of Kingston Pike in question has changed dramatically. When I was growing up, there was not one church. Now there are 11, plus two schools, and a bunch of condominiums. I made that vote in good faith to save the house and I think I have provided thoughtful and balanced service and have been involved in meetings all over the city.”

Tennessee Mustang car show is ‘must see’ This Saturday, Aug. 15, from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. the first annual Travis Wegener memorial car show will be held at the Food City, 7350 Clinton Highway. Admission for spectators is free and the entry fee for cars is $20. Expect a big crowd. Travis Wegener was a member of the Tennessee Valley Mustang Club – a group with a history of helping char itable T. Wegener organizations. He was shot while visiting friends in Inskip on Aug. 15, 2014, and died on the scene at age 28. Travis owned a landscaping company. After his death, the Powell Business and Professional Association named him Powell’s Man of the Year for 2014. A memorial fund was established to support the PBPA’s Enhance Powell committee, which is working to build out Powell Station Park and coordinate other beautification projects. We hope to make the car

Dr. Donald Wegener, Travis’ dad, said a muscle car group has joined in this year and prizes will be given for the top 25 cars. Business sponsors are Sage Kohler at State Farm, PBPA, Randall Anderson of Anderson Insurance Agency and, of course, Food City. Lunch will be available, as will several vendors. Doug and Donna Loveday are car show organizers. Doug is president of the Tennessee Valley Mustang Club.

Gov. Bill Haslam’s Insure Tennessee plan for health benefits for the working poor (non-working poor already have Medicaid). Sen. Richard Briggs has endorsed the plan and Sen. Becky Duncan Massey voted for it in committee. Zachary says no. He has drawn support from legislators who tend to line up with Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey rather than Haslam. So this race is the only one around, and its reverberations will be felt statewide. Everybody is paying attention but the voters in the 14th District. A low turnout favors Zachary.

HALLS/FOUNTAIN CITY Shopper news • AUGUST 12, 2015 • A-5

Who was the first to break your heart? As with the seasons of the year, there are four distinct levels of Tennessee football fans: 1. Aware. 2. Interested. 3. Enthusiastic. 4. Passionate. We’ll leave three groups to their wider screens and higher def and address the fourth, especially those who turn cartwheels and backflips about the Volunteers. You know who you are. Your neighbors know, too. You wear orange to mow the lawn (new Nikes, not outdated adidas). There is a power T on the back of your Toyota. Your mailbox is orange. Your cell phone acknowledges calls with a few bars of Rocky Top. At the stadium, you refuse to sit down – even during timeouts. You’d skip weddings and funerals before you’d miss a big game.

Marvin West

I’ve heard you when you didn’t know I was listening: “Without UT football, my life is a shallow pit of nothingness.” “My life is orange and white – and I am not going gray.” “I love Tennessee football and live and die with wins and losses. I know I shouldn’t be that way but I just can’t help it.” There was a time when setbacks destroyed Sundays and left you miserable all week. Not so much anymore. The Vols have lost so

many, even passionate fans have learned to handle it. Many still care deeply. Just the other day, I walked into a conversation about heartbreak, a continuation of a forum discussion about which Vols and foes were first to break your big orange hearts. Think about that. I’ve missed stories that really hurt but never endured sports heartbreak. I did think of what Hank Lauricella did to thousands in the 1952 Sugar Bowl. Tennessee had a great team and New Orleans was the hometown of the all-American tailback. The stage was set for coronation of the king. Hank threw three interceptions and fumbled a kickoff return and Maryland won by more than the 28-13 score. Ouch.

Old friend Karl Kremser inflicted pain and suffering when he missed a field goal in the closing moments of the 1968 Orange Bowl. That 26-24 loss to Oklahoma wasn’t really his fault. The Sooners built a three-touchdown lead because the Tennessee defense didn’t show up until the second half. A furious comeback provided the last-minute chance to win. Heartbreak conversation included injuries, poor decisions, talent wasted and other misfortunes. Former Vols who erred, drunken drivers who killed people, hurt and embarrassed many others. Tony Robinson’s untimely knee injury and drug conviction may never go away. Some bled when Heath Shuler didn’t stay for his se-

government nior season. Jerry Colquitt waiting his turn to play quarterback and going down in the first series of his first game was a heartbreaker. Chuck Webb hobbling off ShieldsWatkins Field remains a sad image. What happened to Inky Johnson would be a devastating memory if not for what he has done on the rebound. It does appear God had a hand on that bad shoulder. The small cluster of fans talked about more trivial heartbreaks – the convoluted loss to Memphis State, an Arian Foster fumble, Mike Hamilton hiring Lane Kiffin and Derek Dooley. Oh my. I thought of the tragic wreck that snuffed out three Tennessee coaches. There are other things I

didn’t and don’t like – disregard for tradition, moving the third Saturday of October, playing Vanderbilt any time except the final Saturday, alternate uniforms and nobody from Tennessee being in charge of anything. Irritating – but not exactly heartbreakers. There is so much good, so much excitement, so much color and pageantry in the Tennessee scene, it is hard to maintain a consistent frown. This doesn’t greatly impact levels 1 and 2 fans. Level 3 enthusiasts are encouraged. The passionate, naturally optimistic, believe really good times are just around the corner. Wouldn’t it be something if the Volunteers win 10! That would cure a lot of ills. Marvin West invites reader reaction. His address is westwest6@netzero.com

Foundation helps those in need A new foundation inspired by a Knoxville oncologist made its first major gifts last week in connection with a charity of one of the community’s iconic sports figures.

Bill Dockery

The L5 Foundation handed out $20,000 to five area organizations that support people with disabilities or people who have cancer, all done in cooperation with the Bruce Pearl Family

Foundation. Pearl, the former basketball head coach at the University of Tennessee, is widely known for his charitable works. The L5 Foundation made its largest contribution – $10,000 – to Camp Koinonia Foundation for a scholarship honoring Pearl. Camp Koinonia is a weeklong camp put on by UT’s therapeutic recreation program for children and youth with multiple disabilities. The camp is also a major training experience for hundreds of UT students who will work with people with disabilities. The camp was the major charity that Pearl got involved with when he came

The L5 Foundation awarded a $10,000 scholarship to Camp Koinonia in cooperation with the Bruce Pearl Family Foundation. Participating in the donation ceremonies were Brandy and Bruce Pearl; Susan Newman, UT Medical Center oncologist and secretary/treasurer of the L5 Foundation; Joseph Ortiz, president of the Camp Koinonia Foundation; Angela Wozencroft, secretary of the Camp Koinonia board and assistant professor of therapeutic recreation; and Ruth Patrick, executive director of the Camp Koinonia Foundation. Photo by Bill Dockery to Tennessee and Newman praised him for not forgetting about the camp’s needs, even after he left the Knoxville area. “All the things we did at Tennessee we did together,” Pearl said. In addition to the camp, the L5 Foundation gave $2,500 donations to the Cancer Institute at the University of Tennessee, East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, the Thompson Cancer

Survival Center Foundation and Niswonger Children’s Hospital in Johnson City. “I’ve been a medical oncologist for 12 years,” Newman said. “Based on my experiences with my patients, I see five elements that help cancer survivors survive: the faith to believe, the hope to endure, the determination to overcome, the strength to survive, and the passion to win.” Those characteristics are

the source of her foundation’s name. Newman said she was accustomed to the costs of the medical fight against breast, colon, and other serious cancers, but she noted that behind those huge financial costs are families that have simple needs for food, transportation and other daily issues – “keeping the house clean, finding a babysitter when someone has to go for chemotherapy.”

“A patient shouldn’t have to choose between getting treatment and taking care of the everyday needs of self and family,” Pearl said in thanking Newman for the gifts. “They have to know that there are strangers who care about what they are going through.” Pearl had to break off his remarks for a moment as his emotions briefly overcame him. “The need doesn’t just go away,” he said.

Stay ‘Sharp as a Tack’ with program from Y For anyone who has been recently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or dementia, the YMCA is offering the pilot program “Stay Sharp as a Tack,” hosted by the Davis Family YMCA, 12133 South Northshore Drive. Participants can try an exercise regimen that focuses on balance, coordination, cardio improvement and Clova Caldwell Photos by S. Barrett

Friends aplenty By Sara Barrett A typical week at Parkview Independent Living in Farragut is similar to a week on a cruise ship according to residents and friends Barbara Henry, Clova Caldwell, George Tennant and Herb Wittke. Movies are shown theater-style three times a week. Outings include Mighty Musical Monday at the Tennessee Theatre, regular shopping trips and a gamut of restaurant options. There are exercise classes but also an “indoor greenway” as Tennant calls it. The upstairs is big and open so residents can walk laps in the air conditioning. And don’t even get them

at Parkview started on the chocolate cake. The key word that gets all four friends talking, though, is cards. “We play everything,” said Tennant. “Bridge, Spades, Kings in the Corner …” Henry says Tennant is the card shark of the group. “They accuse me of that, but I just get the good cards,” Tennant says with a grin. He learned how to play Bridge from a fellow resident. The group talks about their hobbies, and “witty” Wittke delivers one of his famous zingers. “I’m an artist, but only in the summer,” said Wittke. “I draw flies.”

When they’re not involved in activities or making each other laugh, Tennant and Henry both keep up with their grandkids on Facebook. Henry says times have really changed from when she was a kid, largely because of technology. “We didn’t have electricity until I was 5 years old,” she said. “Now, I have to keep up with technology just to see what my family is doing.” The topic of texting causes a serious tone to envelop the conversation. All four friends are concerned that today’s technology will be society’s downfall. “I am really surprised at what people reveal on Facebook,” said Tennant.

cognitive improvement. The one-year program will also focus on education for both the client and the caregiver and will offer social events such as linedancing, bridge and lunch outings. Info: Matt McGhee, 777-9622 or mmcghee@ ymcaknoxville.org. Deadline to register is Aug. 28.

Caldwell says she’s noticed big changes in the Knoxville area after moving to Tullahoma from Alcoa years ago, then back to Knoxville recently. “Outside of Kingston Pike, I don’t know where I’m at,” she said. Words of wisdom from people who have been there and done that: Tennant suggests getting a good education. Henry says to save more money than you think you should. Caldwell suggests people have real conversations instead of text messaging. Wittke said young people should “become active and remain active,” as he headed to exercise class.

John Gargis: Hope moves in, life can move on By Cindy Taylor Celebrate Recovery North Knoxville commemorated a one-year anniversary with a location change. On Aug. 4, the ministry moved from the old Smithwood School to its new home at Fountain City United Methodist Church on Hotel Ave. The Rev. John Gargis, associate pastor at Fountain City UMC, is one of the founders of the original Celebrate Recovery North Knoxville and will continue his work at the new location. A recovering alcoholic himself, Gargis has more than 12 years experience as a leader in the recovery community and holds leadership positions in numerous addiction recovery programs in the East Tennessee region. “Everyone can benefit from attending Celebrate Recovery North Knoxville,” he said. “We all know friends and family members affected by some form of struggle and/or addiction.” Geoffrey Reynolds attends the north program.

He says he ended up with a group of people that he considered friends and was swept up into substance abuse. He lost his job, his house, his car, his family and basically, his life. He has worked hard to get off of drugs and back on his feet. He has been attending Celebrate Recovery North Knoxville since the beginning and made the move to the Methodist church with the program. Aug. 4 was his one-year celebration with the program. He says Celebrate Recovery North Knoxville has been a major factor in getting his life back and on track. “I had a lot of ‘using partners’ when I was on drugs but no real friends,” said Reynolds. “What God has done for me and others through Celebrate Recovery is almost magical. A lot of people need support and this program is great groundwork for anybody having any kind of difficulty. I look forward now to the recovery process as much as I once looked forward to my

drugs.” The heart of Celebrate Recovery North Knoxville is to invite all churches in the area to come alongside the new ministry. People of all backgrounds and denominations who have a desire to support those affected by addiction and want to learn more about the true healing found in a proven, Christcentered/Biblically based program are invited. “Celebrate Recovery North Knoxville offers hope and healing,” said Gargis.

“Hope that any person, whether an addict or those whose lives are affected by an addict, can not only get by but truly get their life back.” Celebrate Recovery North Knoxville meets at 6 p.m. each Tuesday for dinner followed by a time of worship and sharing. Classes are offered in chemical dependence, sexual integrity, codependence and healing. A nursery is provided and Celebration Station is available for children ages 5-13.

Downtown to down home By Cindy Taylor

Danie and Douglas Munsey

New pastor at Pleasant Hill Baptist Pleasant Hill Missionary Baptist Church, Brushy Valley Road, has called a new pastor. The Rev. Douglas Munsey and his wife, Dwaynetta (Danie), will be welcomed with lunch on Sunday, Aug. 16, at Copper Ridge Elementary School, following the morning service. The community is invited to both the service and the lunch.

The Rev. Brian Davis didn’t travel very far to take on the role of lead pastor at Powell Church. Serving in a large downtown Chattanooga church can be very different than serving in a community the size of Powell. But Davis says he couldn’t feel more at home. “I am following a pastor who served this church for more than 20 years and who is very well loved. I know the congregation misses him, but they have welcomed me and my family with open arms.” Davis was born in Knoxville but grew up in Chattanooga. He has been in the ministry for 17 years. Davis says the children and youth ministries are a huge draw for people in the community because they aim at reaching people as they are. Church outreach ministries, such as Celebrate Re-

covery, are helping people turn their lives around. “I already love these people. Powell Church is the ‘Real Deal.’ They love Jesus with all their heart and they really do love their neighbors. “Anyone looking for a fourth Saturday. place to worship, grow in Community faith and serve others is ■ Glenwood Baptist Church, services 7212 Central Avenue Pike, is welcome to come join us just ■ Cross Roads Presbyterian, accepting appointments for as you are.” 4329 E.

Bales scholarship recipients reminisce Bud Bales was the head baseball coach at Central High School for 27 years (1974-2000). His record speaks volumes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 509 wins207 losses; 17 district titles, eight regional titles and a state championship in 1990 which got the Bobcats ranked in the top 20 in USA Today. He is a member of the Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame, the Carson-Newman Hall of Fame, the East Tennessee Baseball Coaches Hall of Fame and the Tennessee Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame. Many honors have been bestowed upon Bales, but one that means so much is the scholarship named after him to recognize outstanding Central High School graduates. Since the scholarship was established, 15 deserving students have been presented with a scholarship in Balesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; name and have gone to college, graduated, married, had babies and joined the work force. It was a night to share stories of successes and once again thank Bales and the school for the opportunities the scholarship provided.

Note of thanks On June 8 I had a car accident on Maynardville Hwy around 5 p.m. A young women stopped to make sure I was OK. She helped me out of my car (which was sideways blocking two lanes of the highway) and helped me to her truck and allowed me to sit while she stood in the pouring rain contacting my family. She also was with a man and had a small child in a car seat. I can’t recall her name but she redialed my daughter’s phone later that evening to check on me at the ER and said that she was a recent nursing graduate. If you are reading this, or know who this might be, I just want to say thank-you from the bottom of my heart! You were truly an angel to me that day and you will be a wonderful nurse. I wish you all the best in your future. – Kitty Lewis

House Mountain Hoedown By Carol Shane Fans of local music will be in luck this weekend when a lively festival celebrates its second year. Held in the shadow of House Mountain just eight miles northeast of Knoxville, the 2nd annual House Mountain Hoedown will feature six well-known area performers and bands. On the docket are the funloving and eclectic Y’uns Jug Band; Kukuly and the Gypsy Fuego, “hot jazz” artists who are influenced by Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli; multiaward-winning dulcimer/ progressive folk artist Sarah Morgan; acoustic folk duo Jubal; blues/rock band Slow Blind Hill Jr.; and versatile jazz artist Kelle Jolly. “That festival has great

musical diversity, good country food, and a great overall atmosphere. I look forward to reconnecting with a lot of old – and young – friends,” says Danny Gammon, who sings and plays multiple instruments including fiddle, mandolin and kazoo with Y’uns Jug Band. Steve Horton, his partner in tunes and tomfoolery, agrees. “House Mountain is Knox County’s best mountain. It is the highest point in Knox County, and every time I stand on the top of House Mountain, I am the highest man in Knox County. And it’s shaped like a house. And having a hoedown in the shadow of House Mountain is obviously the best place in Knox County to have a hoedown.”

weekender Part of a 500-acre natural area, House Mountain is indeed notable for having the highest elevation in Knox County at over 2,000 feet. Popular with birders as well as hikers, the area is temporary home to migrating flocks of hawks and warblers. According to the Knox County Department of Parks and Recreation, over 100 species of birds have been observed there. It’s an idyllic spot for a music festival. There’ll be a jam circle, so if you play an instrument, bring it along. And a square dance in the Washington Presbyterian Church pavilion will round out the evening. Proceeds from the event go to help preserve and improve the pavilion and park grounds, open year-round

to the community, at Washington Presbyterian Church in Corryton. “Last year was well attended,” says Horton, “and everyone seemed to have a good time. Everyone should come!” Gammon agrees. “Hope to see you there!” The 2nd annual 2015 House Mountain Hoedown will be held 1-9 p.m. this Saturday, Aug. 15, at the Washington Presbyterian pavilion and park, located at the corner of Shipe Road and Washington Pike in Corryton. Advance tickets are priced at $12 and are available by calling 6887744 or 314-2161. Tickets are $15 at the gate. Info: housemountainhoedown. com Send story suggestions to news@ shoppernewsnow.com.

Rare silent highlights film festival By Betsy Pickle Unlike Lana Turner, Helen Mundy really was discovered in a drugstore. But it was in Knoxville, not in Hollywood, and Mundy blew off the film industry after one movie. That was “Stark Love,” a 1927 silent that will be the culmination of “Southern Exposure: The Great Smoky Mountain Film Festival” at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Tennessee Theatre. Paramount wanted amateurs to portray the Appalachian characters in “Stark Love,” which was shot on the North Carolina side of the Smokies, in the Robbinsville area. “They wanted to find authentic hillbillies,” says Bradley Reeves, director of TAMIS, the Tennessee Archive of Moving Image and Sound. “Where are you going to find those? Knoxville, of course. “So they passed through here, and they found Helen Mundy. She was a saucy teenager. She didn’t care about anybody or anything; she was just a wild girl by all accounts, and it really comes through in her performance, which is absolutely first rate for a firsttimer.” “Stark Love” earned great reviews but did not perform well at the box office. Prints of it – along with hundreds of other silent films – were later burned by the studio for their silver. British film historian Kevin Brownlow discovered a copy while filming in Prague in the late 1960s. The film is now on the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress, which has a copy. The Museum of Modern Art loaned the print that will be screening Saturday. TAMIS showed a “rough” 16mm print in

Knoxville teen Helen Mundy, star of “Stark Love” (1927) Photos from TAMIS

2007. “This is the brand-new restored print with the right inter-titles, the right lineup of clips from the best possible surviving materials,” says Reeves. “I’m proud it’s going to be on film because that’s something I love. It’s getting rarer and rarer to see that on a big screen.” “Southern Exposure” is part of the East Tennessee History Fair, which takes place throughout downtown Saturday. The film festival begins at noon with Dr. Bill Snyder playing favorites on the Mighty Wurlitzer. The free afternoon program runs till 5 p.m. and includes films made by commercial photographer Jim Thompson between 1915 and 1950. “It’s some of the most amazing footage that I’ve ever seen in my life,” says Reeves. “Jim Thompson is so important in the development of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. He was there at the beginning, … and he doesn’t get the credit that he deserves.” The afternoon includes a lot of footage of the Smokies plus films shot around downtown Knoxville. Reeves recruited local musicians to put music to the silents: Todd Steed for the

compilation “Silent Town,” Dave Ball for the newsreel segment “Our Southern Mountaineers”/“In the Moonshine Country” and the Swill Sippers for “A Forgotten Smokey Mountain Road Trip.” Bill Landry will introduce amateur movies shot in the Smokies and will be on the screen in a 1989 episode of “The Heartland Series” called “The Rolling Store,” complete with outtakes. After a break, the evening program ($9 adults, $7 seniors and children) will begin at 7 p.m. with the documentary “Lost Masterpiece: Karl Brown’s Stark Love” by

Short films in “Southern Exposure” will include serious and campy footage shot in the Smokies. Dr. John White, followed by “Stark Love,” with an introduction by Jack Neely. Reeves says Mundy was being groomed for stardom but never made another movie. “She didn’t play the game. She didn’t care.” Like Lana Turner,

whose first marriage was to Artie Shaw, she married a bandleader, Donald Berringer. Unlike Turner, she

stayed married, and raised a family of in Kalamazoo, Mich., where she lived till the end of her life.

Ron Flammang, production manager for Keurig/ G r e e n Mountain Coffee in K nox v i l le , says cons u m e r s should anticipate cold drinks from Ron Flammang the Keurig system. Speaking at the East Towne Business Alliance, Flammang said Green Mountain started as a coffee shop in 1979. In 1993, Keurig (â&#x20AC;&#x153;excellenceâ&#x20AC;? in Dutch) joined Green Mountain. The company is known for its individualized system for hot drinks, primarily coffee and tea. In the future, expect a cold system for soft drinks, he said. Knoxville is the largest of Green Mountainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s production facilities, producing

40 to 45 percent of Green Mountain Coffee, Flammang said. The plant, based in the Forks of the River Industrial Park, opened in 2008, just as the recession kicked in. The company invested $50 million here, according to a newspaper report. The corporate headquarters is in Waterbury, Vermont. Flammang provided management tips to the East Towne business owners: Nobody likes change, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only person who likes change is a baby with a dirty diaper.â&#x20AC;? He listed the stages of change: betrayal, denial, identity crisis and search for solutions. Businesses should be process-focused and work toward collaborative problem solving. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bring your boss solutions, not problems.â&#x20AC;?

If the football team wins 8 games the Volu nteer s will have had a good year â&#x20AC;&#x201C; well, eight games plus the bowl game. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the opinion of Daryl Hobby WVLT assistant sports director Daryl Hobby. He spoke last week to the North Knoxville Rotary Club. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball team has a chance to be great this season with red shirt sophomores Mercedes Russell (6-6 center) and Diamond DeShields (6-1 guard) having been ranked Nos. 1 and 2 in their high school class. But the â&#x20AC;&#x153;best teamâ&#x20AC;? at UT, the one most likely to win a national championship first, is the softball team, Hobby said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What about baseball?â&#x20AC;? someone asked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tennessee recruited a great class, but then they all signed pro contracts. ... â&#x20AC;&#x153;But if you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t win with this guy (coach Dave Serrano), then what?

At Knoxville Municipal Golf Course, this will be the first time that its four miles of cart paths have been repaved since its opening in 1984. Whittle Springs Golf Course is the city’s oldest course, opened in 1932.

The two courses combined accommodate more than 55,000 rounds of golf each year. Each course serves as host to middle- and highschool golf teams. Whittle Springs recently implemented a junior golf camp.

Wilhoit takes job seriously, self not so By Bonny C. Millard WBIR news anchor Robin Wilhoit’s 25year career in the news business has allowed her to step into the lives of many people, and Robin Wilhoit she said the experiences have touched her. Wilhoit spoke to the Rotary Club of Knoxville, where she was introduced by president-elect Allen Pannell Jr. Wilhoit did a story in May on Pannell and his wife, Amy, who died of breast cancer in 2014. “The stories that have had the greatest impact on me are the personal stories. They’re not the stories that necessarily I’m going to be leading right at six o’clock. They will be a little further down in the newscast, but they are just as powerful. One particular is one I did earlier this year on Allen’s wife. Talk about a beautiful love story. Theirs went fast. Unfortunately,

breast cancer got in the way.” Wilhoit started WBIR’s Buddy Check 10 program years ago to remind women to do monthly breast selfexams as well as promote awareness of breast cancer. Wilhoit started her journalism career with WJHL in Johnson City right after college. In 1990 during the Gulf War, she was sent to the airport to cover the arrival home of a young U.S. Marine captain. After the story aired, he asked her out, and they were married three years later. “So I have to say it’s the best story I’ve ever done because I got a great husband and two wonderful kids out of it.” Wilhoit, co-chair of this year’s United Way campaign, said she’s had her share of embarrassing moments on air, and one taught her an important lesson. “I learned at that moment in time ‘Do not take yourself too seriously,’ and I don’t,” she said. “But ‘Do take your job and your passion seriously,’ and that I do.”

HEALTH & LIFESTYLES NEWS FROM FORT SANDERS REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER

A breech baby, a more gentle birth Local hospital first to deliver in a different way About a month before her baby was born, Alexandria Brown of Harrogate, 35, knew she would probably have a cesarean section to deliver her daughter. “This is my rst child, and it was pretty much determined that I would need a C-section, because she was breech,” said Brown. A breech birth means the baby is positioned feet- rst, instead of head- rst. The breech position can cause a number of complications during birth. “I believe it was at 36 weeks (of pregnancy), when we really started monitoring her as far as the breech position goes. There was still a chance she could turn on her own and we were hoping for that, but she didn’t do it,” said Brown. So C-section it was, and Brown and her ancé, Josh Price, scheduled the surgery with Dr. Brooke Foulk for July 10 at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center. But Foulk gave the couple Dr. Brooke a new option at Fort SandFoulk ers: a “gentle” cesarean. “Dr. Foulk suggested it. She had explained what it was, and that they were still in the process of getting it approved, but she told us we were good candidates. She asked us if we would be interested. “I said, ‘Of course!’ I jumped on that. I was excited. We didn’t know until ve minutes before that we could for sure do it.” One of the biggest differences in a “gentle” C-section is the sterile surgical screen hung below the mother’s shoulders. In a typical C-section, the screen is blue, and shields the mother’s view from the surgical site. Most mothers must wait about 10 to 20 minutes after a C-section to see their babies, after they are whisked to a warmer to be weighed, tagged and swaddled. However, in a gentle C-section, the blue screen has a second layer, a clear plastic, see-through screen. The blue screen is raised during the initial surgery, but lowered before the baby is lifted out, allowing the mother to see her newborn through the clear screen, at the rst moment of birth. Brown saw her daughter, Elizabeth Marlowe Price, 6 pounds 11 ounces, at the mo-

This moment was captured after Dr. Brooke Foulk and staff at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center delivered Elizabeth Marlowe Price to new mom Alexandria Brown and her fiancé Josh Price via “gentle” cesarean. The clear screen is one difference between a “gentle” C-section and the traditional procedure. ment she was born. “She came out bottom rst. That’s the rst thing I saw!” Brown said with a laugh. “They had to ip her around to show us. “They immediately showed her to me, that was really amazing and exciting. I’m not squeamish, and they didn’t let me see anything they didn’t want me to see,” said Brown. “Plus I think your attention immediately goes to the baby instead of yourself at that moment.” After a nurse cleaned up the baby, Price held Elizabeth up close to Brown, while Foulk closed up the surgical site. “They bundled her up and brought her over to me, I couldn’t hold her but he could,” said Brown. “From that point they put the blue screen back up. They nished stitching me up, from that point on, it was a typical C-section. “Dr. Foulk took pictures of the three of us rst, through the clear screen,” said Brown. Brown said she would recommend Fort Sanders to any pregnant women. She chose

the hospital, which is more than an hour’s drive from her home. “We had shopped around for different practices, and my mother-in-law-to-be had been using Fort Sanders Women’s Specialists for gynecology visits, and had been impressed with the staff there,” said Brown. “One of the physicians has a secondary of ce in Tazewell. So for a lot of visits I could go local, and that saved some of the driving for me,” Brown said. “Fort Sanders gave us really amazing care,” said Brown. “The labor and delivery staff, they couldn’t have been more attentive and just so nice. No words can describe it. I was extremely impressed and I would de nitely use them again.” And it turns out, little Elizabeth was the rst East Tennessee baby born with the “gentle” cesarean section method. “I knew that we had the option of being the rst one at Fort Sanders,” said Brown. “But I never thought I’d be the rst in East Tennessee!”

What is a “Gentle” C-Section? A “gentle” cesarean section delivery requires more coordination between the obstetrician, anesthesiologist, and delivery nurses, but the effort is worth the results, said obstetrician Dr. Brooke Foulk. Here are a few ways a “gentle” cesarean is different: Equipment: In most C-sections, a solid blue, sterile surgical screen separates the mother’s face and abdomen. The mother doesn’t see what’s going on at all. In a gentle C-section, the screen is there but it has two layers, a blue one and a clear plastic one. The blue layer is up for the incision, but the anesthesiologist removes it and reveals the seethrough screen, so the mother can see the baby being born. Time with mom: In most cesarean sections, the baby is whisked right away to a warmer to be checked, weighed, tagged and swaddled. It might take 10 to 20 minutes before the mother gets to see the baby. In a “gentle” cesarean, an effort is made to let the mother cuddle the baby right away, even sometimes “skin-to-skin” and breastfeeding. “There’s been evidence that shows that skin-to-skin helps with breast feeding, preventing postpartum depression, holding the baby’s sugar level and temperature, everything you worry about,” said Foulk. Candidates: Any mother who has local anesthesia (rather than general) is likely a candidate for a gentle C-section. “De nitely any mother who would have hoped for a vaginal delivery and wants to be involved is a good candidate. Not somebody that’s squeamish and wouldn’t want to see a drop of blood,” said Foulk, with a laugh. “The good thing about any C-section is that the mother is looking down, and they really don’t see anything gross!” Beneϐits: Better outcomes for babies, and happy mothers. “I think birth de nitely should be more of a family process than a sterile technical procedure,” said Foulk. “A lot of women feel like less of a mother after a cesarean section, perhaps because they’re numb and can’t feel the process. There’s an increase in postpartum depression with C-section mothers. But this gentle approach gets her more involved in the process of becoming a mother.”

Volunteer Stephen Minister Training Offered in Knoxville The Pastoral Care Department at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center will present a Stephen Ministry information meeting on August 13 at 5:30pm. Stephen Ministry is a program providing Christian spiritual caregiving to people who are hospitalized and to their loved ones. A Stephen Minister comes alongside a person whose life has been affected by illness or other crisis and provides one-on-one support. “This is a wonderful opportunity for people in our community to learn the skills needed to make a big difference in the lives of people who are suffering,” said Chaplain Randy Tingle. Training begins with workshops on Sep-

tember 10 & 11, and continues with a weekly class held on Thursday evenings. Stephen Ministers complete 50 hours of specialized hospital-based classes as well as participate in on-going continuing education opportunities. Graduates of the program commit to serve with the hospital chaplains as volunteer Stephen Ministers in the hospital for one hour per week for two years. Besides Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, Stephen Ministers also serve in the Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center and Thompson Cancer Survival Center. More information and applications are available by contacting Chaplain Randy Tingle at 865-541-1235.
