Troop 50’s first 50 years

BUZZ Fire tips for kids from KVFD Karns firefighters were talking to kids and parents last week and Nancy Anderson was there: “Call out or throw something at us. Never, ever hide under the bed, in the closet, under the covers or anywhere else. “That’s my number one wish for you all to know. Do not hide. Be under the window so we can find you quickly.

Boy Scout troop 50 celebrated its 50th anniversary Saturday (June 4) with festivities at its home base, Beaver Ridge United Methodist Church. Scouts young and old(er) enjoyed relay races, knot tying competitions, a Cheetos throwing contest, tent erecting competitions and more. Scoutmaster Larry Rose has seen all three of his sons grow up in troop 50, and he says it is very fitting to have such a memorable event for the troop’s first half-century. “The ideals and principles of scouting are timeless,� he says, he himself a former scout. Troop 50 was first chartered by Beaver Ridge United Methodist Church June 6, 1966. Since then, more than 330 scouts have participated there and 44 of them have earned Eagle rank, the highest rank in scouting. The national average of scouts earning Eagle rank is one out of every 100. Troop 50 has grown considerably in size within the last 10 years, from less than 10 members to more than 40 currently. Scout ages range from 11-18. Troop 50 has only had three scoutmasters in its 50 years, according to troop advancement coordinator and webmaster Suzanne Rose. Scoutmaster Eugene B. Patton was the first in 1966, and Scoutmaster Thomas H. Becker led the

By Betty Bean Two weeks ago, Amber Rountree, who served on a task force that studied disparities in academic performances among Knox County students, told her school board colleagues there’s something badly wrong with the state’s funding formula for education. “You need to be talking to your state legislators about the fact that the BEP (Basic Education Plan) is broken, and our kids are not getting what they need,� said Rountree, who said that working on the task force taught her that most student disparities are caused by poverty, regardless of ethnicity or disability. “We all have to come together as a community. We have to all reach out to come up with a solution.� When asked to elaborate, Rountree said Knox County Schools’ greatest need is for additional social workers and guidance counselors.

ed by the BEP, which was created by the Education Improvement Act of 1992 to settle a lawsuit filed by a group of small school systems that challenged the way the state distributed money between urban and rural school districts. The BEP was updated in 2007 (becoming BEP 2.0), but leaders of the state’s larger school systems complain that the state has simply shifted the burden for paying for education to urban districts like Knox County. Periodically, lawmakers consider bills requiring the state to fully fund the BEP, but those measures invariably get punted to a summer study com-

mittee black hole. Rountree said many of the “enhancements� included in the BEP 2.0 reforms have never been fully funded – guidance counselors and social workers among them. “Whatever money (Gov. Bill) Haslam put forth this past year hasn’t enhanced that area.� She said Moreland Heights Elementary School shares a social worker with Pleasant Ridge Elementary. “That’s one person trying to meet the needs of 800-plus students,� she said. “I don’t think there’s a perfect solution, but the way we’re doing it now is obviously not working. We’re at the bottom of the barrel with educational funding, and I’m not sure how anyone in the state can rah-rah the virtues of the BEP.� Rountree said she feels “a lack of connection with representatives at the state level – like when Bill Dunn was trying to push his voucher bill through, saying he had a letter from the school board,

when in reality it was a letter from (board chair) Doug Harris. The majority of the board did not support Dunn’s bill. And the conversations I’ve had with Harry (Brooks), I’m not sure he thinks the BEP needs to be fi xed.� Brooks, who chairs the House Education Administration and Planning Committee and served on a task force convened by Gov. Bill Haslam to work on finding more money for education, said that state government has worked hard to get additional funding to local education agencies. “In Tennessee, we have moved money away from other entities into education,� Brooks said. “That’s the priority of this governor.� The Cost Differential Factor (CDF) between urban and rural counties was one of the ways the task force routed additional funds for urban districts, Brooks said.

If you saw a Karns Fire Department engine parked in front of Karns Library last Wednesday, you needn’t have worried. There was no emergency; the local superheroes were making their annual library visit to share safety tips and give fire engine tours. It was a record-breaking crowd, but firefighters Jay Gregory and Michael Cruze were prepared with red toy fire helmets for every kid and plenty of patience. Each child got an up-close look at fire protective gear, masks and noisy alarms, and got to

From page 1 school system indicate that the bulk of Knox County’s increased funding is coming from enhancements mandated by the new law, particularly in salaries and medical insurance. There will be a $9.4 million increase for instructional funding and a $754,000 increase for technology. The news isn’t totally rosy

for KCS, whose finance department has asked the state to review an $860,000 funding cut because of a change in the way “at-risk� students are defined. The numbers will be finalized in July. Knox County finance director Chris Caldwell said the state provided an additional $12 million to Knox County this year, bringing the state’s local contribution to nearly $195 million.

“A chunk of that would be because of the revised formula,� Caldwell said, cautioning that Knox County still kicks in more revenue to the state than it gets back. “We’re always going to be a donor county. Sure, we’d love to get more, but the BEP enhancement is definitely a step in the right direction.�

Dual-threat quarterbacks change the game Now that Joshua Dobbs is back from his airplane analysis internship, we can resume the discussion of dual-threat quarterbacks. Those who can comprehend the awesome NFL numbers achieved by Peyton Manning can score debate points on the advantages of a pro-style quarterback. In theory, the pro stands tall in the pocket, protected by great blocking boulders. He looks to see if receivers went where he told them to go. He identifies the designated one or the alternate most likely to succeed and delivers a dart. This formula sounds good and often prevails, game after game, season after season, for half a lifetime in Peyton’s case. When coupled with great defense, it may win Super Bowls and lead to many lu-

Marvin West

crative endorsements of pizzas and Buicks. The dual-threat quarterback changes the game, adds dimensions, the possibility of premeditated runs, guaranteed scrambles when the pocket collapses and blockers and rushers are falling over each other. Immediate relocation improves the temporary chances of remaining upright and may transform nothing into something. Crowds cheer. There are potential complications. If the dual-threat quarterback is to throw, it is

often on the run. In theory, a moving thrower will miss a moving target more often than a pro-style quarterback might. There is another problem. Belligerent NFL linebackers, pugnacious corners and mean-spirited safeties will occasionally catch the pesky dual-threat quarterback as he zigs and zags. Their goal, at a minimum, is to discourage him, thus reducing the yards they have to sprint and the sweat to be blotted from their brows. Down deep, they would like to disable him, punish him for being such a brat. Sometimes, in their exuberance, they send him to the hospital. Think RG3, formerly of the Washington Redskins. College football is different. The pro-style quarterback is less certain to domi-

nate. Flaws often pop up in the protection plan. What the dual-threat quarterback adds to the game keeps defensive coordinators up late at night. Think Johnny Football – before he totally ran astray. Remember Dewey Warren? He was a classic prostyle quarterback. He stood his ground, defied the rush and completed a pleasing number of meaningful passes. He became a legend based on how long it took to successfully complete a oneyard run. Remember Condredge Holloway? He was a terrific dual-threat quarterback. Ben Byrd dubbed him “The Artful Dodger.” Even when defenses hemmed him up, they could never be sure Condredge was officially hemmed up. Condredge was more

than an escape artist. He was an efficient passer. He set a school record for low interceptions-per-attempts. Only 12 of his 407 were picked off. Jimmy Streater came along a little later. John Majors called him one of the best athletes he ever coached. In a dramatic victory over Notre Dame, Jimmy displayed versatility with a 48-yard pass completion, a 51-yard scamper and a fiveyard touchdown on an option keeper. Heath Shuler was hardnosed. He liked to run into and over opponents. Sometimes he pulled the ball down and sped away when he might have been better off staying where he was. Tee Martin once completed 23 consecutive passes. He threw for 32

Te n n e s s e e touchdowns. He ran for 17. Tee, dual threat, was best known for guiding a national c h a mpionship seaJosh Dobbs son. Peyton is in the Vol record book with 11,201 passing yards and 89 touchdowns. Except for one stunning naked reverse, Peyton runs were usually desperation moves to save his life. Dobbs can run well and throw some and think deeply. That creates numerous exciting possibilities. Getting hurt would not be the best one. Marvin West invites reader reaction.

Let’s plan for an eastside economic summit Ever been to Turkey Creek during the holiday season? Long traffic queues, scarce parking slots, crowded store aisles, slow checkouts. Kinda makes a root canal look attractive ... at least to us guys. Too much of a good thing. Meanwhile, buyers in the east end of the county are left to wonder where are all those farsighted entrepreneurs with pockets full of discretionary dollars waiting for a suitable outlet. No wonder the likes of Amazon are prospering. It has been suggested that we need to plan an eastside economic summit. What’s that? It’s a gathering of the several business and professional organizations and area neighborhood groups to help define

Nick Della Volpe

what is needed and would do well here. A catalogue of what the area has to offer. Finally, a joint meeting with businesses and developers to hone a game plan. There are active BPAs in the north, east, East Towne and Fountain City areas. Also, a dozen or so established neighborhood groups that are the very bedrock of stability. It’s time to join forces and brainstorm our future, and to educate the greater business community to look beyond the

pre-conceived perceptions that are sometimes lessthan-kind and mostly unfair, and see what is truly an untapped and desirable market. The truth is there are great communities and great people who live out here. Despite the errant actions of a few – of course, we have those – and the out-of -proportion news reporting sensationalism that unfairly tar its image, the sun has always risen in the east. Time for a second look. We have a lot to offer. Among our strengths are great neighborhoods with great people! And good roads. We are surrounded by rural towns and counties to the north and east that consider Knoxville their commercial center. They shop and dine here. It’s time

we focus on and advertise those eastside assets and opportunities to the sleeping business world. Good things are already happening. The Magnolia corridor is about to get a $4.7 million infrastructure facelift by the city. The Botanical Garden and Arboretum is expanding its already amazing presence, as is the heavily-visited tourist attraction called Zoo Knoxville, as well as the many events and shows at Chillhowee Park and the newly-restored Fountain City Lake. The East Towne business district has a number of fine businesses with a regional draw and improving interstate access. Look at the expansions of Sam’s Club and Walmart, or the constant

foot traffic at Home Depot, Lowe’s and Target. Did I mention the booming commercial tenants at Forks-of-the-River industrial park? Or the planned development at Midway Road and EastBridge? As for residential neighborhoods, Fountain City is a bedrock community, as are Holston Hills, North Hills, Park Ridge and Park City, Alice Bell, Fourth and Gill, and Old North Knoxville to name a few. In older areas, historic homes have been coming back to life through the vision, investment and sweat equity poured in by young families moving back into the city. And, if you didn’t notice, northeast Knox County has been one of the fastest growing housing markets for subdivision

development according to the 2010 census. So what’s not to like? The opportunity is here. Ready to be tapped. How to begin? With help from the city, the Chamber and meeting facilitators, the BPAs and neighborhood groups should meet to refine their thoughts, wants and needs in order to prepare for a fall economic summit or a gathering by any other name that will synthesize the collective thoughts of the greater community into a cohesive report. Business leaders, entrepreneurs and planners will be invited to share their thoughts with the group and help reach a consensus vision and roadmap for the future. Think positive. The sky is the limit. So let’s get cracking!

Gill ramps up campaign in District 1 School’s out for Evelyn Gill, so she’s taking off her special education teacher hat and getting into campaign mode. She’s excited. “The first district is the heartbeat of the city,” she said. “And I don’t think most people really realize that.” Gill, a Mississippi native who has lived in Knoxville since 1994, has an impressive resume that includes a master’s degree from Rutgers and extensive experience in business, education and volunteer work. She and her husband, Michael, a well-known music promoter and employee of the Knoxville Museum of Art, live in East Knoxville, in the heart of the district, which includes the precincts in Ft. Sanders, downtown, Parkridge and all the neighborhoods between Spring Hill and Lonsdale. The incumbent commissioner, Sam McKenzie – one of just two Democrats now serving on that body, and the last two elected Democrats in Knox County – is leaving office this year. Gill has run twice before – in 1997, she came in last in the field of primary candidates for this same seat after the Black Wednesday debacle. In 2012, she ran a losing campaign against prohibitive favorite Becky Duncan Massey for the District 6 state Senate seat.

Tim Wright retires from AAA

Betty Bean This summer, as the Democratic nominee, she’s no longer the underdog, and she’s planning to stick with the Rosie the Riveter theme that she rode to victory in the primary. On the surface, it looks like an easy road. No Republican has been elected to serve the first district in modern times. In March, Gill’s general election opponent, Michael Covington, got 927 votes running unopposed in the Republican primary. He has been campaigning for at least a year (although some of his appearances, like marching in parades in Farragut and Karns, have been head scratchers). Most notably, he’s been holding public meetings around the district. Meanwhile, in the Democratic primary, Gill defeated Rick Staples, whom many considered the favorite, by a 1704-1507 margin, which would appear to give her an insurmountable edge in the Aug. 4 general election But there are some possible clouds on the horizon, mainly the possibility of Staples mounting a write-in campaign. Staples said he

Evelyn Gill with her iconic Rosie the Riveter poster didn’t start the talk, but he isn’t discouraging the social media rumbles urging his supporters to write him in. “I will have to pray,” he said. “This thing took me off guard. It took off and I found out about it on the back end. Evidently a large number of people were frustrated with how this thing went down, and a number of people took it on themselves to do it on their own. I’m going to think that over and get some good advice.” “How this thing went down” is a reference to the voting patterns that emerged in the primary, with Gill, who has been an active supporter of Bernie Sanders, rolling up large margins in the majoritydominated wards where

Safety first!

Sanders prevailed – downtown, Ft. Sanders and Parkridge – while Staples won the traditional AfricanAmerican neighborhoods that went for Clinton. Voter turnout was higher in the Sanders wards. Staples doesn’t have much time to make up his mind. Election coordinator Cliff Rodgers said write-in candidates have until noon, June 15, to file a one-page declaration of intent to run. Rodgers said it would be good if Staples made up his mind sooner than later. “We hope if anybody’s going to do a write in, they’ll do it few days before the deadline because I have to come up with a master list of all possible misspellings, so the votes will count.”

County Clerk Foster Arnett has moved the satellite office from Halls Center, at left.

By Sandra Clark Guess it depends upon which side of the road you live. Knox County Clerk Foster Arnett has closed the longtime county satellite office at Halls Center and reopened it across Hwy. 33 in the old Walmart space, now undergoing roadwork on two sides. In a front page story by Jake Mabe (Halls edition), Arnett says he made the move for safety concerns, citing dampness and mold in the basement of the space at Halls Center. Arnett previously moved the Knoxville Center mall office and another at Cedar

Correction The chart at right, which ran larger in last week’s paper, was NOT drawn by Don Parnell. The chart, which shows the path to obtaining neighborhood traffic calming, was taken from the city’s website. Parnell called at 7 a.m. Wednesday to deny authorship; he called again at noon to request a correction and apology. And he asked the money question: How could a mistake like this happen?

Appendix F — Flow Chart / Neighborhood Traffic Safety Program

Newspaper errors almost always occur when the reporter writes more than we know. Parnell says he is retired and hasn’t worked for a public entity since the 1980s. The friend who sent the chart mentioned Don’s name in the email, and I assumed Parnell had drawn it. I’m sorry for any damage to Parnell’s reputation as a result of this error. – S. Clark

For the first time in over 70 years, AAA in East Tennessee will be headed by someone not named Wright. Tim Wright, 69, retires on June 30, after 36 years leading AAA. He followed his father, Luke Wright, who started in 1940, left to serve in the Army Air Corps in World War II, and returned in 1945 as general manager. This year marked the 60th anniversary of the safety Tim Wright patrol trip to Washington for fifth graders. Recent years have seen some 1,900 students, 240 chaperones, 46 police officers, 12 medical folks and 43 motor coaches be part of the weekend trek from Knoxville to Washington, D.C. Wright went on the second trip in 1957 and every one since 1976, including this year’s trip. Wright is proud of those 60 years and AAA’s sponsorship. During his tenure, 10 AAA offices across the state were opened. The headquarters on Fifth Avenue in Knoxville was given a major renovation. AAA started an active advocacy program for issues at the state and federal levels, and grew it to the point that lawmakers listened. Wright is proud to have assembled a team of over 50 who run AAA daily. He says technology and consolidation have been the largest changes, with AAA going from 600 clubs to 20 nationwide. He recalls being in Belgium when the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center occurred. He took a train to London, got to JFK airport in New York and four days later got to Knoxville. He met his wife of 46 years, Patsy, on a blind date in Chattanooga. In retirement, he plans to spend time with their three daughters and eight grandchildren, who live in Nashville and Roswell, Ga. ■ Marshall Stair worried aloud at a City Council workshop about the loss of revenue from repeal of the state’s Hall income tax, which could cost Knoxville $7 million a year or more by 2022. It is a significant hit on the city treasury. For the town of Farragut, it is much larger in terms of its percentage hit. The final impact will come six years away when the repeal is set to become complete. However, the Stair

Victor Ashe

comment, along with his letter to the editor of the News Sentinel, revealed a concern which the mayor and no other council member has evidenced publicly prior to the bill becoming law. Council never adopted a resolution expressing opposition. Their concern is being voiced after the fact. The mayor did not raise the issue during her public breakfast with lawmakers. She had raised it in private one-on-one meetings without effect. It should cause the council to re-examine its lobbying contract with Tony Thompson (whom this writer hired some 20 years ago) to determine if they are getting the best work, or the council should at least increase its activity in Nashville. The council also needs written reports if they exist from Thompson on what is happening in the Legislature, as the mayor’s office does not brief the council on legislative developments with regularity. Basically, council leaves it to the mayor to handle relations in Nashville. Council is not invited to the mayor’s annual legislative meeting, although it is now a public meeting due to efforts of Reps. Eddie Smith and Martin Daniel. Also, it does not help when the mayor openly campaigns against incumbent lawmakers and then expects them to work with her. She would be better off staying out of the local campaigns. ■ Knox County is in a better strategic position as Mayor Burchett has extensive legislative experience and knows lawmakers across the state personally. That is not true for the city, with the exception of former Vice Mayor Nick Pavlis, who works in Nashville and has strong legislative ties. ■ Freedom House celebrates 75 years of activity this year as it works to highlight restrictions and bans on freedom of the press. Started in 1941, it has showcased censorship through the world. A majority of people on this planet live in countries without free media including China, Russia and Cuba.

Knox PAWS coordinator Julia Jackson brought PAWS member B.J. to meet new friends.

By Sara Barrett Seniors from all over Knox County mingled and munched during the first Beyond Bingo held at Sherrill Hills in West Knoxville. Sponsored by the Shopper News, Beyond Bingo featured a slew of vendors and speakers discussing everything seniors want to know about. Fitness Together, Tennessee Orthopaedic Clinic,

Random Acts of Flowers and Placing Animals with Seniors (PAWS) were just a few of the booths available on “Main Street� at Sherrill Hills. A bevy of gifts were offered to fill Shopper News tote bags, and door prizes were awarded to a lucky few who completed their Bingo cards by collecting stickers from each vendor. A fabulous lunch of crois-

sant sandwiches, fresh fruit and delectable cookies was served by Sherrill Hills, and most attendees walked away with armfuls of goodies including water bottles, note pads and coffee mugs. Feedback from Beyond Bingo goers was positive, with requests for more speakers at the next event. Maybe the next event should be called Bigger Beyond Bingo.

We need each other Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper as his partner. ‌ So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then he took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. Then the man said, “This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. (Genesis 2:18, 21-23a NRSV)

Showing a little leg at All Saints By Nancy Anderson Senior models strutted their summer styles on the runway at the annual All Saints Catholic Church Seniors 55+ Fashion Show held at the church June 3. “We’re a very active group with luncheons, socials, dinners, and activities.� said event co-chair Marilyn Portman. “Today isn’t about fundraising, it’s just about laughter, a nice lunch, camaraderie, and above all fun. We even managed to get five men to model. What a challenge that was!� The Seniors 55+ Fashion Show is an annual tradition and crowd favorite. This year featured comfortable summer styles in bright colors for both women and (for the second year) men. “Yup, we’re here again this year and we still don’t know how to model. We were told to ‘show a little leg’� said Dick Portman. “We’re really just in it for the free lunch!� As if the male models were not entertainment enough, music was provided by retired professional big band pianist Dixie Johnson,

I am reading a book about the War of the Roses in medieval England, and am about to embark on another one. Those were perilous times for everyone in the country: men were subject to conscription by their lords, women were largely subject to their husbands, and children were subject to their parents, but also to diseases and early death. We tend to think of that period as one of chivalry and honor, a glamorous, romantic period. It was, in some ways, depending on one’s status. However, as I read, I found myself considering the lack of toothbrushes and toothpaste, antibiotics, and Kleenex, for heaven’s sake! (It spurred me to plan a “goodie box� to send to someone, anyone – near or far – who doesn’t have such amenities.) I also considered the way we take such things for granted, ignoring the needs of others. I thought about how we categorize people, based solely on where they live, how much money they have (or don’t have) – without giving a thought to what they might need. The truth is, sometimes the best gift we can give someone is recognizing them as a fellow human being, who has feelings, aspirations and dreams!

“a breakfast serials story�

Written by Avi and Illustrated by Timothy Bush

CHAPTER TEN: Story So Far: As the special soccer team continues to loose, the school community refuses to accept defeat. More and more pressure to win is applied. The game against Pennington Prep was interesting. Crisp, bright weather. It almost made me want to be there. Sure enough, there was a bunch of people who came to watch. Some parents. Ms. Appleton brought our whole class. Mr. Sullivan was there. So was Mr. Tillman. I think he was wearing new beads for the occasion. After we pretended to get ready, Mr. Lester got us over by a corner and gave us a talk. “Gentlemen, Pennington isn’t such a great team. They’ve won a few and lost a few. More like you guys.� “We didn’t win any,� Porter reminded

Are we the worst team ever?

him. Mr. Lester looked toward the sidelines. “Today you will,� he said. “How do you know?� asked Barish. “I feel it.� “Where?� Dorman wondered. “And what about tomorrow?� Lifsom wanted to know. “Gentlemen,� said Mr. Lester, “we can turn the season around if you really desire it. Why not win for those nice people who have come to cheer?� “Let them do it for themselves,� said Saltz. “Now,� concluded Mr. Lester, “come out fighting and keep on fighting.� He made a pathetic fist. Right from the start, we tried. Really. We got together in a circle, touched hands and

started to roar, except just when we began, Eliscue sneezed. So instead of screaming “Fight!� what came out was “Fi . . .� Sneeze! “God bless you.� “God bless you.� “Thanks.� Not what I’d call a mean team. As for the game, well . . . there were one or two things. The big moment was when we scored a goal. Really. It was the only score (for our side) so far that season. I’d like to tell you that Porter brought it smartly down the right line, snapped a crisp line shot to Lifsom, who brilliantly passed cross-field to Hays, who smashed it by the helpless, confused goalie . . . except it didn’t happen that way. As much as I saw it, the goal came about when Lifsom was trying to get the ball out of our territory. That time he actually got his foot on it. The ball even started to go in the right direction. A major improvement. Then one of their guys intercepted, dropping the ball along his body. He began running it back. Our side moved into our automatic full retreat. Somehow, their guy tripped. The ball got away. Dorman realized that the ball was free. He got it moving deep into their turf. I could see how excited he was by the notion that he was actually on the move with not much between him and their goal except their goalie, because of what he did. What he did was stop and watch. Fenwick came up and — not wanting to waste a shot because we didn’t get too many — stole the ball from Dorman (who might have fallen asleep for all he moved) and gave a boot. In fact, Fenwick only topped the ball. The ball squirted forward. As for Fenwick, he had kicked so hard and up, he fell down. What happened next? Their goalie cracked up, laughed so much that he let that little dribbler of a ball keep coming. Meanwhile, Radosh came up from the left and gave the ball a thump, again, right at their goalkeeper. Their goalie punched it right back. The ball bonked Hays on the head and bounced into their goal. Mind, I did not say Hays headed the ball in. I said the ball hit him on the head and bounced back. Into the goal. In fact, Hays was so dizzy from the shot that he was actually walking around in circles for a few minutes. It figured: we finally score a goal and the guy who scored it never knew what happened. From the reaction of the people on the sidelines — our people — you would have thought we had just won the Super Bowl and World Series. They went wild. Actually, I was much more interested in the way Hays was wobbling, like a crazy duck. That was interesting. As for the other high point, it involved me. It wasn’t so complicated, but since it was me, I had the best view, sort of. It came about because during the third period my shoe became untied. Normally, I’d wait for a lull in the action to retie it. However, there never were lulls, so as time

went on I was sure my shoe was going to fall off. I had to do something. I bent over to tie it. The shoelace broke. That meant more work. And concentration. Next moment there was this terrible thud against my backside. It sent me headfirst into the net one way, and the ball another way, also into the net. Buddy Saltz helped me untangle myself from the net. “It’s probably not a bad idea to face the field,� he suggested. “Do you want to play goal?� I snapped. “Not tall enough,� he reminded me. Final score: 18–1. In the locker room, there were some guys from our other teams. Of course, they had to know what happened to us. We told them. At first, there were the usual jokes, and then this guy, Roberts, who was captain of the eighth-grade first-string team, stood on a bench and yelled for quiet. “Look here,� he said, looking right at us. As usual, we were bunched together for selfprotection. “The joke’s over,� shouted Roberts. “When are you jerks going to get your act together? You’re making us look stupid!� Fortunately, Mr. Lester came in just then. There might have been a riot. Anyway, Mr. Lester shooed us over into a corner to give us some kindly pointers. Not that anyone listened. It had gotten too frustrating. Then Mr. Tillman burst in. “Listen up, you guys,� he said to us. We gave him our attention. He would have taken it anyway. There was an angry glint in his eyes that suggested trouble. “I think I’ve learned my lesson,� he said. “I admit it. I tried to sweet-talk you guys into feeling better about yourselves. That was wrong. What you need to be told is how rotten you looked out there today. I’ve never seen worse. Not around this school. And you need to hear something else. I’ve checked. In the entire history of South Orange River Middle School sports, no team, I repeat, no team, has ever lost all its games.� He paused for effect. “Do you guys want to go down in history as the worst team? Do you?� There was absolute, stunned silence. “Do you?� He insisted on an answer. “Odds are that we can,� said Fenwick. Mr. Tillman turned savagely. “That’s a defeatist attitude, Fenwick. Can it!� He stalked out. Mr. Lester looked embarrassed. “I know you try,� he said softly. “I appreciate that. I just think it would be good to win one game. We play Parkville next. Last game. You should know something. Parkville hasn’t won a game all season either.� With those words of encouragement, he left us. “My gosh,� said Barish, “another team as bad as us.� “Awesome,� said Dorman. “We’ll be playing for ‘Worst in the Universe,’� said Radosh. There was almost, not quite, a thrill of excitement. (To be continued.)

Bearden Rotary presents Ely-Pickle scholarship Last week The Rotary Guy told you about the Rotary Club of Knoxville honoring its two 2016 Teachers of the Year. This week we’ll tell you about a hard-working and talented student who will join the University of Tennessee’s Pride of the Southland Marching Band in the fall – Kaleb Emmert. Kaleb recently graduated from West High School and a few days ago the Rotary Club of Bearden honored him with its Bob Ely-Art Pickle Kaleb Emmert $2,500 scholarship. Ely and Pickle were both District 6780 Governors and members of Bearden Rotary. Janice Mitchell, chair of the club’s Youth Services/ Development Committee, tells us the selection criteria is simple. “A student, male or female, who represents need and aptitude and is a good student academically.â€? Janet says she was “blown awayâ€? by Kaleb’s accomplishments. “He will be majoring in music education and wants to be a band director,â€? she said. “His major instrument is the clarinet and a whole list of others. In person, he is about 6-5 and a natty dresser. His band director at West High School (Jeremy Lumpkin) was his mentor and inspiration and Kaleb gives high praise to his mother (Amy Zarychta) for giving him great character traits.â€? “My mom is my role model ‌ she puts everything she has into whatever she’s doing and I try to do the same,â€? he said. Kaleb also plays the cello, double bass, marimba and vibraphone. His goal is to become a high school band director and then move into the same job at the university level. “I got interested in music in the seventh grade and taught myself to play the double bass, and I also taught myself to read music that year,â€? he says. “I’m good at memorizing and I learned to read music in about two weeks.â€? His mom says he’s also into writing music now. He says he enjoys volunteer work and volunteers at Ijams Nature Center and at UT as well.

News from Office of Register of Deeds

Lending holds steady as real estate sales rise By Sherry Witt Activity in the local real estate market continued its upward trend last month, as 1,212 pr op er t ie s were transferred in Knox CounSherry Witt ty during the period ending on Tuesday, May 31. That figure represented an increase of nearly 200 sales over last May’s total, and surpassed this April’s activity by 99. The aggregate value of property transferred also continued to rise, climbing to $268 million in May after an April total of $242 million. It was the largest May output since 2007, and bested May 2016 by about $50 million. Mortgage lending remained steady in May as around $344 million was borrowed against real estate in Knox County, compared to approximately

$347 million during April. Last spring lending levels were rather high, with $372 million borrowed through mortgages and refinancing. There were two particularly large commercial transfers recorded in Knox County in May. One was the sale of multiple parcels in the development known as The Marketplace, located on Kingston Pike. The total sale price listed for this transaction was $7,394,625. The other involved multiple lots in The Village at Hardin Valley, which were sold for $7.3 million. The largest mortgage recorded in May was a loan in the amount of $20,612,500, financing the Woodlands West residential complex off Walker Springs Rd. As we near the halfway point of 2016, this year continues to be ahead of the 2015 pace in virtually every recording category. Property sales are outrunning 2015 activity by around $130 million, and mortgage lending is about $30 million above last year’s levels.

His enthusiasm has earned him promotions to mortgage sales manager, assistant vice president of sales and service, and vice president of sales and service. “We are a not-forprofit financial cooperative, locally owned and operated by our members,� he says, and it’s clear that he believes wholeheartedly in the credit union model. Boler received his bachelor’s degree in business management from CarsonNewman University, and his MBA at UT Martin. He

is currently finishing up his third year of Southeast Regional Credit Union Management School at the University of Georgia in Athens, and will graduate this month. In March of 2016 he was named president of the ORNL Credit Union Service Organization (CUSO.) It’s a people-oriented facet of ORNL that suits him well. Boler will be responsible for growing and enriching partnerships with other credit unions, and enhancing available member services throughout the 32-branch system of ORNL FCU. “It’s about treating people how you would want to be treated,� he says. He describes what he’s aiming for in employee/customer relations as “a kind of concierge service,� saying that, for instance, a customer looking for the restroom should be escorted there, not just pointed in the right direction. It’s that personal touch and regard for the customer, he believes, that counteracts the increasing use of technology in virtually every industry.

Fountain City’s mystery garden Each Memorial Day in Fountain City Park there is an opportunity to renew friendship with longtime Fountain City residents. Andrew Whitaker is one you always look forward to seeing. He is a master mason and is always involved in interesting projects, such as the work he did at the Foundry in World’s Fair Park. But, Andrew Whitaker’s interest in Fountain City’s history did not end in his teen years. In April 2013, he told the author about a hidden garden to the east of Maynardville Highway and part way up Black Oak Ridge in the Highland Park subdivision. Aerial maps indicate it may be on the north side of a small ridge with nearby Savage Garden just south of it. The mystery was partially solved with a search of the property records at the Knox County courthouse. The property search indicated that a Knoxville attorney, W.W. Scranton, was an early owner of the property. But who was W.W. Scranton? Partial solution to the mystery came after the recent unveiling of the Knox County Library’s “From Paper to Pixels� project. There are more than 2,600 “hits� when one enters the word “Scranton.� More than 75 percent relate to Scranton, Pa., of course. Another 20 percent were reports of the Scranton’s two sons, Paul and Eric, and their athletic exploits at Central High

HISTORY AND MYSTERIES School and the YMCA where they participated in baseball, football and track, often with classmate Roy Acuff on the same team. Fortunately, the obituary columns for both W.W. Scranton and his wife were also found. They revealed that Walter W. Scranton (1862-1934) came to Knoxville in 1889 after he graduated from Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. Kenyon is an elite private college located in Knox County, Ohio, in the geographic center of the state and the oldest private college in Ohio, affiliated with the Episcopal Church. On his arrival in Knoxville, Scranton was first hired by the old Knoxville Tribune but later established a law practice. Still later, he supported his family for about eight years on the meager salary of a clerk in the office of a justice of the peace, Squire Frank Dobson. But, good fortune came his way when he inherited $100,000 from an aunt who had owned valuable lake front property in Cleveland, Ohio. He immediately retired and for the remainder of his life drew between

$300 and $400 a month from that bequest. So Scranton was present at the turn of the century, when Col. J.C. Woodward was converting a sleepy community named Fountain Head into a “destination place.� Woodward’s hotel and resort were less than a mile from the location on Old Broadway where, it appears, Walter Scranton built his palatial home with terraced fish ponds, elegant concrete benches and bridges and graveled footpaths with bountiful exotic and native plants. Bill Dohm, co-owner of Garden Montessori School near the property, has a story which tends to confirm that theory. Before most of the development that surrounds the property, about 1985, he was walking up Templeton Road when on his left he passed a level area with stone columns to left and right and just inside them there was evidence of a circular pond some 15-feet in diameter. He surmised that this was the former entrance to a home with its large formal gardens well behind it on the slope of the ridge.

Some have thought the numerous rather large empty basins on that site represented the remains of a fish hatchery but, more likely, they were the lily or goldfish ponds on Scranton’s dream estate. Walter W. Scranton died suddenly at his home on Jan. 4, 1934. He was survived by his widow, his two sons and a sister, Mrs. Ella Brown. Interestingly, a major portion of Bob Wilson’s Sport Talk column on Jan. 6, 1934, is devoted to a tribute to “as rabid a baseball fan as ever lived, W.W. Scranton.� Wilson said that “even fans who never had the pleasure of meeting him will remember him as the little whitehaired man, always immaculately dressed and wearing a wing-tipped collar,� who rarely missed a home game. Another mystery lies as yet undiscovered. How did Walter Scranton meet and marry Laura Jensen Scranton (1877-1939), a native of Copenhagen, Denmark? Anyone with more information on the family or the Scranton Garden is encouraged to contact the author at jctchs44@nxs.net

Jean Ash is Front Page Follies honoree Jean Ash has been dedicated to journalism her whole life.

By Carol Z. Shane “I’m trying to act retired but I keep getting pulled into volunteer work,� says Jean Ash, this year’s Front Page Follies honoree. A longtime member of the East Tennessee Society of Professional Journalists and president/founder of the Front Page Foundation, Ash is on her toes this time of year helping to mount the Foundation’s biggest fundraiser. Of the annual send-up of local and national news in skit and song, she says, “I used to be in it. I played Margie Ison! And I played C.H. Butcher’s wife, Shirley.� Since the first show in 1979 she’s been “deeply involved,� managing props and ticket sales and even providing her house for script read-throughs. Two years ago she established the 501(c)(3) Front Page Foundation with the aid of students in the UT legal department. The process took a bit longer than it would have going through regular channels, but Ash wanted to work with the students, who earned academic credits in the process. The Follies fundraiser wasn’t originally as “tax friendly� as it could be, and establishing nonprofit status greatly helped. A graduate of Gettysburg College (Pa.), Jean continued post-graduate studies at UT-Knoxville in communications and Chinese language. Known for 20 years as a reporter and anchor at WIVK radio, she recalls, “There was no CNN, and newspapers had deadlines. The only place for any kind of breaking news was radio up until 6 p.m. when TV news came on.� But come the millenium, Ash says, “Radio news was changing, WIVK was changing, I was changing. I was getting old-

er, and no longer into ‘getting a call’ in the middle of the night. She found a new interest in leading tours to China. Having first visited there in 1987 as a tourist, she later spent a two-year stint in the early ‘90s working for China Radio International and CCTV. She loved and understood the country, and soon put her skills to use as a tour guide, working for the Pacific Delight company out of New York City. When the 2008 recession hobbled the tourist industry and the company folded, Ash started leading tours of her own. A veteran of more than 50 trips to the Asian nation, she says, “I’m still ready, willing and able!� Through it all, she remained a board member of ETSPJ, and Ash is being recognized for her outstanding career in broadcast news, her leadership at many levels in the ETSPJ, and her support of journalism education. The foundation she spearheaded will present Follies-funded scholarships named in Jean’s honor to students studying journalism and electronic media at the UT and Pellissippi State Community College. There’s also a “roast� of Ash planned for the fall, but of this Saturday night, she says, “It’s a very special honor because of my commitment to journalism going back to grad school. Being honored by your peers is a wonderful thing.� The 38th annual Front Page Follies will be presented at 6 p.m. Saturday, June 11, at the Knoxville Convention Center. The evening includes dinner, a silent auction, live auction and the revue-style show. Tickets can be reserved online at FrontPageFoundation.org, or by calling 865-776-8227.

News from Paradigm Wealth Partners

Should you use a traditional or Roth IRA? Since their inception in 1974, Individual Retirement Accounts, or IRAs, have become wildly popular. About 42 million US households, or 30 percent, owned at least one type of IRA as of mid-2014. By the end of that year, IRA assets totaled $7.4 trillion, which was about 30 percent of US retirement assets. People like IRAs because they can be invested in just about everything except life insurance or collectibles, so it is possible to make a positive return on your money. Investors with experience in real estate can even use their money to buy real estate through a self-directed IRA. Unlike employer-sponsored retirement plans, with an IRA, you are the complete owner and the plan is in no way tied to your employment. You can even withdraw money penalty-free before age 59 ½ if it is for a qualified first-time home purchase or education expenses. For many people, investing in an IRA is an easy decision. Where they struggle is in deciding which kind to invest in, a traditional or a Roth.

Benefits of investing in a traditional IRA Prior to 1997, there was only one kind of IRA, which is now referred to as a traditional IRA. It is a tax-deferred retirement account, meaning that is funded with pretax money and the taxes are paid when the money is withdrawn in retirement. This is a great benefit because you have more money available to invest if you don’t have to pay taxes out of it first. Also, people often find themselves in lower tax brackets in retirement, so you may pay less in taxes than you would have originally.

Benefits of investing in a Roth IRA Out of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 a new kind of IRA

was born, named after U.S. Sen. William Roth of Delaware who was the chief legislative sponsor of the act. Roth IRAs differ from traditional ones in a few key ways. The biggest difference is the tax treatment. Whereas traditional IRAs are tax-deferred, with a Roth you pay all taxes up front. The thing that makes Roths so popular, though, is that you don’t have to pay taxes on any of the growth. Everything generated by compounding interest stays in your pocket. Roths also differ from traditional IRAs in that there are no required minimum distributions. So, you can leave your money in the account to grow for perpetuity, instead of being required to start taking withdrawals (and stop contributions) at age 70 ½ like with a traditional account. Some people even utilize this aspect of Roth IRAs as a way to provide tax-free income for their grandchildren and future generations. In addition to the traditional IRA’s allowances for special withdrawals, contributions (not growth) can be taken out at any time for any reason without penalty. There are income limitations on who is allowed to use a Roth IRA. In 2016, singles making over $132,000 cannot contribute to a Roth and the amount they can contribute begins phasing out after $117,000 of earnings. The phase-out period for married tax filers is $184,000-$194,000. However, anyone can convert a traditional IRA into a Roth through a “backdoor conversion.”

Which type of account is better for you? Considering the differing tax treatment, a Roth IRA is almost always better for younger people who have more time to save and, therefore, take advantage of compounding interest. If you are nearing retirement and will need the money early in retire-

ment, you may be better off with a traditional IRA. Many people choose a Roth regardless of their age so that they won’t be required to take distributions and they can leave the money to their families. If you make too much money to be eligible for a tax deduction for a traditional IRA you are better off with a Roth, though you will have to do a “backdoor” conversion to open one. If you are rolling over an old 401(k) to open your IRA your decision regarding the type of account to open will have considerable tax implications. You won’t have to pay any taxes to roll a traditional 401(k) into a traditional IRA, but to roll it into a Roth you will have to pay taxes on the entire account. For this reason, in 2012, 87 percent of new traditional IRA accounts were opened by rollovers as opposed to only 11 percent of Roth accounts. The appropriate kind of IRA account for you to open depends on your unique situation and preferences. When making important financial decisions such as this, it is always wise to talk to

an experienced professional who can help you understand your options and the implications of different choices. If you are

Withdrawals from the account may be tax free, as long as they are considered qualified. Limitations and restrictions may apply. Withdrawals prior to age 59 ½ or prior to the account being opened for 5 years, whichever is later, may result in a 10% IRS penalty tax. Future tax laws can change at any time and may impact the benefits of Roth IRAs. Their tax treatment may change. Traditional IRA account owners should consider the tax ramifications, age and income restrictions in regards to executing a conversion from a Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. The converted amount is generally subject to income taxation.

Preparing for parenthood Teddy Bear University helps first time parents get ready for their new addition Travis Lakin quietly holds his newborn son in their West Knoxville home on a warm, sunny day. There will no doubt come a day when the two will be playing tag or tossing a ball outside in the front yard. For now, Travis is content to cradle baby Chase in his arms while mom Kayce takes a break. “I’ve always wanted to be a dad,” Travis says. “It’s something I’ve looked forward to for as long as I can remember, and it’s a joy and a privilege.” Being a parent is one of those life experiences no one can completely prepare you for. That’s a problem for people like Travis and Kayce. “We’re both very big planners,” Travis says, “so we like to know what’s going to be ahead.” That’s why the Lakins signed up for Teddy Bear University at Parkwest Medical Center long before baby Chase was due. Kayce is a nurse manager at Parkwest, so she already knew the kind of reputation the hospital has for its care of moms-to-be during labor and delivery. Having a class that helps expectant parents prepare for the new arrival was icing on the cake. While there’s no substitute for the experience of having a baby, there is plenty of insider information that can help couples like the Lakins feel more at ease in the process. “It was good for us just to mentally prepare for the coming months,” says Travis, who is a nurse practitioner. Kayce celebrated her first Mother’s Day as a parent this year, and now Travis is getting ready to enjoy his first Father’s Day as a dad. Kayce says she and Travis discussed family plans on one of their first dates, and were happy to find out they were both on the same page. “It was just such a blessing when I met Travis to know that there would be someone I would want to start a life with, and raise children with,” Kayce says. They were married on May 3, 2014, and last year when they found out they were going to have a baby, they knew where they wanted to deliver. They registered for a class to get ready, choosing the

Kayce and Travis Lakin welcome baby Chase into the world on May 4, 2016, at Parkwest Medical Center. “Super Saturday” option. While a five-week course is usually recommended for first time parents, the oneday, Saturday course is an option for those who aren’t able to attend multiple classes that cover several weeks, or those with experience. Teddy Bear University also offers an online course, which is particularly helpful for expectant mothers who are on bedrest, or parents who may live in outlying counties. Every option through Teddy Bear University gives expectant parents the knowledge, skills and confidence to meet the challenges ahead. “It was good for us to walk through the experience of what to expect leading up to the birth, and how that would play out,” Travis says. “I think the biggest thing for me was covering how to care for my son, and definitely breast feeding,” Kayce says, “and since the instructor was a lactation consultant, it helped a lot.” Travis and Kayce both say the instructor

was personable and gave great examples to clarify the lessons that were being taught. Before learning how to take care of the baby, Travis learned how to help his wife. Then came the lessons on how to be a parent, using baby-sized mannequins for hands-on learning. “We actually gave a baby a bath that day,” Travis says, laughing, “that was a good thing!” Travis also learned how to change a diaper, something he’d never done up to that point. When the big day finally came, Kayce and Travis were swept into the welcoming environment at Parkwest Medical Center. Kayce liked the way every part of labor and delivery happens in the homelike atmosphere of one comfortable room. “We couldn’t have asked for anything better,” Travis says of the care they received.

Baby Chase Lakin made his grand entrance into the world on May 4, the day after his mom and dad celebrated their second wedding anniversary. Travis cut the umbilical cord, then watched in wonder as a nurse cleaned and swaddled the baby. After that, it was time for little Chase to meet his mother for the first time. Kayce sighs as she remembers the emotional moment. “It’s such an amazing feeling, because you’ve gone through this whole day, it’s built up the emotions of everything you’ve dreamed about, and then here he is,” Kayce says. “You see his face and it’s so amazing, you almost don’t believe it’s real.” Once she met her son, Kayce didn’t want him to leave her side. Fortunately, he didn’t have to. “At Parkwest the baby stays in the room with you, and I liked that a lot,” Kayce says. Travis agrees. “Some places have a separate nursery where they take the baby away for a while,” Travis says. “It was good to have the baby in the room with us, especially with us being new, just trying to introduce ourselves to him and getting used to having a child.” Settled into their home with the baby, the Lakins are no longer just a couple, they are part of a growing family. The Lakins say they’re excited about watching baby Chase as he reaches each new milestone and progresses through life. “Just helping him become the person he is intended to be, we’re very excited about that,” Travis says. “Every day is a new experience, it’s a new journey, it’s a great one – it’s just a privilege to have a child.” For information about childbirth services at Parkwest Medical Center, or to find out more about Teddy Bear University, visit treatedwell.com/childbirth, or call 865-374-PARK.

BE A POSITIVE INFLUENCE. Your attitude is critical. Be supportive and pay attention to your partner’s needs. Your support is very helpful during this time. DISCUSS THE DYNAMICS. When a baby comes into a family, it changes the relationship between the parents. Those changes come more easily when you are prepared. GET A GRIP ON YOUR FINANCES. Keep a record of how much money you’re spending, and look for ways to trim costs. Update your insurance policies and get a will. GET EDUCATED.

DECIDE ON DELIVERY OPTIONS. It is important to discuss your delivery expectations prior to going in to labor. Take time to talk about each of your preferences. This will relieve some stress on delivery day. GET THE HOUSE READY. Assemble the baby furniture, baby-proof the house, and address any issues related to family pets. KEEP THE PARTNERSHIP GOING. The help, support and positive attitude that make pregnancy better for the baby’s mother will also make her a better mom. Regularly ask the question, “What can I do to help?” REMAIN CALM. Remember that plenty of men have become fathers in the past. They survived the transition, and so will you.

At the Parkwest Childbirth Center, expectant mothers and family members are welcomed within 30 days of the day of delivery to preregister and discuss what to expect. Mothers must be at least 36 weeks into pregnancy to preregister. Patients are encouraged to share their wishes for the day of birth, including what medication they may or may not want during labor. Because of this registration, patients do not have to fill out paperwork or provide medical history on the day of delivery. “They get a tour of our department and get to meet everyone so there’s less ambiguity about what will happen when they’re in labor,” Teresa Paris, RN, MSHS, BSN, RNC-OB, NEA-BC, Childbirth Center manager, said. “The service we provide allows women and their families to focus on

delivery when they come back to have their baby,” During delivery, patients are accompanied by a nurse clinician from East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, who monitors each delivery and can step in if neonatal issues arise. Infants who need additional care can also be quickly transferred to Children’s Hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Following delivery, a lactation consultant visits each mother and answers questions about and assists in teaching techniques for breastfeeding. “Babies are not born knowing how to breastfeed, so we try to be hands on and support each mother,” Paris said. “We understand that it’s a personal choice and will help no matter what the patient decides. Formula is available, and we abide by parent preference.”
