Bullens bring Appalachia to
Preserve UC this week
As Preservation Month wraps up, you are invited to visit Union County’s only winery, The Winery at Seven Springs Farm, 1474 Highway 61-E, Maynardville, Saturday, May 30, from 2-5 p.m. The Riddle family has put together a marvelous exhibit of Historic Union County Distilleries. You can peruse the photographs and artifacts of legal whiskey making from days gone by, see a moonshine still, and also see the most modern technology used in today’s wine production. Thank you Rick, Donna, Nikki and James for your support of Preservation Union County. The Smoky Mountain 4-H Club members have been busy writing essays about the “The History Around Us.” The contest winners will be announced Friday, May 29, at the banquet at Rutherford United Church. The contest is sponsored and prizes provided by city of Maynardville, Preservation Union County and Union County Business and Professional Association. Many thanks to Marilyn Toppins for organizing the event. – Betty Bullen

The place, along with her grandfather’s store, the smokehouse, a log shed, the site of the family’s tomato cannery and the grounds comprises the Hamilton-Tolliver Complex on the National Register of Historic Places. The Bullens welcomed visitors during an open house May 17. See more photos on page 3. Photos by Libby Morgan

By Sandra Clark Sheriff Billy Breeding presented his first budget to Union County Commission last week, asking for six new staff members and a $200,000 increase in expenditures. He made a compelling case. On a motion by J.M. Bailey, the commission’s Budget Committee recommended hiring two patrol deputies and an additional detective. The full commission must approve the final budget. Breeding said the Sheriff’s Office averages 24.3 calls per day – 8,876 in 2014. A full patrol shift contains three patrol officers, but often shifts are not full because of vacations, sick time, etc. “Many times, calls for service require more than one officer and sometimes may require all three officers because of safety issues,” he said. In addition, patrol officers must spend time in court, on random school walk-throughs, writing reports, in training or at

special events.
Need for detective Upon taking office, Breeding created a Drug Enforcement Unit and assigned one of four detectives to head it. Already that unit has launched more than 55 investigations that target the illegal trafficking of drugs, he said. “We’ve had eight search warrants issued and six seized vehicles. Detective Crider was instrumental in the latest drug round-up that contained over 75 counts of drug trafficking charges.” Drug violations are the fastest growing crime in the county. Drug-related violations have risen from 29 in 2011 to 74 in 2014; while drug-related equipment violations have gone from 17 to 51 in the same period. But since Crider was reassigned, the average case load for the remaining detectives has increased to 62.3, Breeding said. Currently, Detective Carden has 21 open cases (23 closed); Detective Muncey has 25 open (25
closed); and Detective Rouse has 38 open (13 closed). An additional 7 came in on Crider’s call period.
Other needs Breeding made a case for two female jailers to comply with state and federal requirements. He also asked for a utility deputy to serve as a court officer also responsible for animal control. Animal-related complaints are soaring, he said. In 2014 there were 23 calls on animal abuse, 10 calls on an animal bite; 202 miscellaneous complaints and 123 calls on animals in the roadway. While no one disputed the Sheriff Billy Breeding talks to county need, commissioners questioned commission. whether the county could afford With no enthusiasm for a tax the increase.

Union County employees can expect to switch from Humana to a previous carrier, United Healthcare River Valley (the former John Deere Co.), July 1 when the current policy ends. The Budget Committee unanimously approved the change, guaranteeing sufficient votes to pass the commission and enabling representatives from United to start enrolling employees.

United Healthcare matched current benefits with a 4.6 percent increase over current costs, while Humana quoted a 30 percent increase for the same service. Tim Helton of the Sequoyah Group, the county’s broker, said bids were “all over the board.” He and Finance Director Ann Dyer recommended the change, and both said an enrollment boost to 100 or more would make their job much easier.

“Right now, we can’t ‘see’ our plan, with just 97 enrolled,” said Dyer. With 100 or more in the group, Helton and Dyer could obtain demographics and general usage data to make it easier to craft future bid specifications. Helton also discussed the county moving to a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) as a step toward self-insurance. He recommended against it this year.

The committee adopted a motion by Stanley Dail to split the increase 50/50 with enrollees. Employees will be offered three options, with plans ranging from roughly $394 to $293 for individuals and from roughly $1,200 to $894 for families. Bottom line: the cost for the same benefits will increase about 4.6 percent, with that increase split 50/50 between the employee and the county.

Lake season in full swing at Beach Island, Lakeview By Shannon Carey Larry Collier is looking for a banner year on Norris Lake. After the harsh winter of 2015, Collier thinks folks are eager to get outdoors and on the water. “And what better place to do it than on Norris Lake?” he said. Collier is management director for Waterfront Investments, which represents Norris Investment Partners of Knoxville, which purchased Beach Island Marina and Lakeview Marina in Union County back in March. Beach Island includes Bubba Brews Bar and Grill. The group also owns Stardust Marina in Andersonville, Mountain Lake Marina and Campground in Rocky Top, formerly Lake City, and Sequoyah Landing Marina on Tellico Lake. Collier said the company kept most of the existing staff and welcomed a new general manager for Beach Island and Lakeview, Rob Williams. “We look forward to being here in Union County and working with the folks to improve both of the facilities,” Collier said. “We want to make it as nice a place as possible.” Right now, that means
recovering from winter. Four docks at each Union County property went down under ice and snow, and they are being replaced. “We are moving the facilities forward and hoping to continue to grow,” said Collier. Collier has met with the Union County Chamber of Commerce and plans to schedule a ribbon cutting soon. He said he is looking forward to working with the Chamber and Union County tourism.

vince her that she could take this money and spend it on her students, she replied, “It’s a matter of principle.” Not only over the years did Ms. Jimmie voluntarily deny herself Career Ladder funds, it is incalculable the amount of her own money she spent on her students and their classroom. Ms. Jimmie never wasted time on naps in kindergarten, though it was the trend for many years elsewhere. She had spelling bees and taught her kindergarteners
to read even when it was widely believed this should not happen until first grade. Sharps Chapel has maintained academic excellence for many years through the passage of many curricula, programs and administrators. Could this be because Ms. Jimmie planted good seed in kindergarten that her colleagues nurtured and tended in the upper grades? Any house is only as good as its foundation. Ms. Jimmie provided a solid educational foundation in
kindergarten, and her most able colleagues built well upon it. My ideal of the “perfect” teacher met reality with Ms. Jimmie Devine Eldridge. She certainly lived up to her middle name to become an example for all. There is no substitute for such excellence. Ms. Jimmie, may your retirement be as blessed as our lives have been by the standard you’ve set. Next week, a look at some results of Ms. Jimmie’s hard work.

vesting and pearling before the coming of the Tennessee Valley Authority and the subsequent lakes. The covered dish luncheon was a treat and showed off the great Union County cooks. For a time between about 1900 and the 1930s there was pearling activity on the Clinch River. Many accounts of people finding pearls along the banks of the river have been told. Some people had pearls made into jewelry. One of the signs of affluence was to have your wife or mother a pin made of silver or gold with a Tennessee pearl attached. I have also heard of a pearl being attached to a pin for each child. The pins I have seen were much like a safety pin with a knob to hold a pearl. Most of the pearling I have heard about was along the shoals of a river. Wading – and if the water was clear enough – they could see the mussels and would harvest them. Clinton was mentioned by Dave Tabler, who maintains the Appalachian History website, as being the center on the Clinch for buying and selling the pearls. Eddie Stair told Tabler there has been a shell processing tower on the
A cup runs over with pearls. Clinchmore Farm where he grew up. It stood on the river bank about 200 yards downstream from the Clinton water treatment plant across from Hammer’s store. In the early years of the industry I am told there was at least one Union County family that constructed a house on a barge and went up and down the Clinch pearling. They would dock the boat near a school for their children to attend school and would plant a garden on the river bank to grow their summer produce and for canning. I was probably told the name of the family but if so it has left me and there’s no one to ask now. Even though a few people did find success in the pearl business mostly the success was in the shell business. Mussel shells were harvested, collected at certain river points and shipped
throughout the world to make buttons. I worked in downtown Knoxville from about 1958 until 1990. In the 1960s Carl Pardon, the founder of Pardon’s Jewelers, had been working at Kimball’s in jewelry repair. He left to start a Tennessee pearl business in his basement on Chickamauga Avenue. As the business grew, he incorporated as Pardon’s Jewelers. At about that same time James Peach had a business on Central Avenue called United States Pearl Company. He was a member of the Tennessee House of Representatives and a pearl farmer. It is believed that Pardon purchased many of the pearls he crafted into jewelry from Mr. Peach. Fresh water mussels are now an endangered species, and are protected by federal legislation. Pearling on the Clinch is now only a faded memory.

Tennessee has a little cup problem Dave Hart has said all along that repairing football was his first order of business. Raising millions for salary increases and more and better facilities is obviously the second priority of the athletic director. Two is linked to one. Pumping basketball back up is probably next in line. Rick Barnes brings hope. There is one highlight and half of another. The new TV studio is superb. Dorm construction is on schedule. Money works wonders. The boss appears to be above the fray over what to call Tennessee women athletes but others are in a tizzy. Should he choose to engage, this could be timeconsuming – and maybe bruising. As busy as he otherwise is, Hart must have noticed the baseball surge.

Ironic that this evaluation is sponsored by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics. Hart is part owner. Butch Jones’ football team didn’t shake the ground with the 7-6 record but it earned 45 cup points with the bowl victory. Iowa got 25 for losing. Tennessee’s other fall teams fell somewhere near flat. The Vols didn’t qualify for the NCAA cross-country run. Women’s soccer went 10-10 and didn’t get to play in the NCAA tournament. Volleyball was a not very pretty 8-24. UT does not participate in men’s soccer, men’s water polo and women’s field hockey, three reasons it cannot keep up with Stan-

ford, UCLA and others who do. Many who care about a well-rounded athletic program believe Tennessee is still in decline. It finished 40th last year, 10th in the SEC, worst in the 20-year history of the cup. I see a glimpse of optimism. Women’s basketball did well, considering injuries, and should grow stronger. Softball exceeded expectations in what was supposed to be a retooling campaign. Tennessee men and women finished fourth in SEC swimming and diving. Mauricio Robles won two of three diving titles. Pole-vaulter Jake Blankenship cleared 18 feet, 3 inches to win his event at the SEC outdoor track meet. That was only three inches down from his best vault of last season. Here’s a window into the plight of Tennessee track: Drew Kelley ran the best 1500 of his life in the prelims and failed to advance. Brielyn Rogers came through with her best-ever triple jump and placed 12th. Twelfth (next to last in this case) is where the Vols finished in track team standings. They scored 28.5

God said, “This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations: I have set my bow in the clouds, and it shall a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. (Genesis 9:12-13 NRSV) Of all the signs God offered His people, the rainbow is perhaps the loveliest. Any time a rainbow shows up, people stop and stare, filled with awe and wonder. I have seen double rainbows, and one time – one unforgettable time – I saw a triple rainbow. What I did not know about rainbows until I did some research in “The New Interpreter’s Bible” is this: the rainbow is socalled because ancient people believed that the bow they saw was God’s bow—as in “bow and arrow.” In other words, a weapon. God’s intention, however, was a ring – almost like a wedding ring – a promise, for all of God’s children, for all of creation. And in fact, I have seen a rainbow that was a ring. I was a passenger in a small private plane (and when I say small, I mean

a two-seater: one did not get into that plane so much as put it on!) We were flying over Knoxville just as an afternoon shower stopped and there it was – a rainbow that was a complete circle! When one is standing on the ground, one can see only half of God’s ring – an arc. When one is in the air, however, one can see the whole bow – a wondrous ring of seven colors. It pleases me immensely to know that God’s promise is a perfect circle – a promise without end, a rainbow ring that reminds us of God’s love and protection. God gives us a ring!

points. Florida won with 130.5. Vanderbilt didn’t play. UT women scored 15 points, just enough to place last. Arkansas won with 127.5. Measuring stick: Tennessee, once a national power in track and field, finished more than a hundred points behind the SEC winners. Interesting that Beth AlfordSullivan accepted the challenge of fi xing the problem – without an indoor facility. Tennis, anyone? Seniors Mikelis Libietis and Hunter Reese are nationally ranked in doubles but the tennis team had a 14-13 record. The women were 11-15 overall and 3-11 against SEC foes. Top golfer Chad Merzbacher tied for 40th in the San Diego regional. The women’s team placed third in their regional, eight strokes off the pace. Tennessee did not make the nationals in rowing but nobody drowned. Tennessee did better in academics than athletics. Alas, classroom scores are not a factor in Directors’ Cup standings.

Diagnosing a disc injury Chiropractic Outlook By Dr. Darrell Johnson, DC
Between each of the vertebrae that make up the human spine are discs that serve essentially as shock absorbers. They are tough but flexible pads and, like any other part of the body, they can wear down over time or be injured. The symptoms of a disc injury can vary widely. Symptoms could appear anywhere from the toes to the buttocks. They might include numbness, tingling, weakness, pain or a combination of them. So diagnosis is tricky, but chiropractors are trained to do just that. Depending on where the symptoms appear, the chiropractor will know which part of the spine is the problem area. Nerves to the problem area pass through the spine and the vertebrae at specific locations. So the chiropractor may try to replicate the
symptoms by testing specific discs. He or she may also test the strength and reflexes in your limbs and extremities. Magnetic resonant imaging (MRI) is another one of the techniques the chiropractor might use. Once the diagnosis is made, the good news is that most disc injuries will get better with conservative treatment that may be as simple as applying ice. Or the chiropractor may give you a spinal adjustment, or just advise you on how to improve your posture. Talk with your chiropractor about the function of a disc and ways to keep your discs healthy.

Thanks to all! I took over as president in December 2014 after being a part of the board for the 2014 season and as a coach in 2013, so I’ve been involved with the league for three years now. This has been a learning experience from the word go, there are so much behind-the-scenes things that go on early in the season with signups, paperwork, Little League chartering, insurance, uniforms, that I had to be a quick learner. Our board, coaches and everyone involved are strictly volunteers. We currently have 12 members on our Little League board and are always looking to add to that. This year’s Union County Little League had a total of 18 teams with kids from age 3 to 16. The teams have been playing since early April and will wrap up the season on May 30 with a Championship Saturday tournament with Josh Schwartz Coach Pitch and Kid Pitch divisions starting at 10 a.m. The senior league team will start playing in June. The main Union County Little League field had some water issues last fall and early this spring, but thanks to our field crew and bringing in some sand and several hours of hard work, our field is back and is a great place for the kids in our community to play games for two to three months a year. We have a nice group of coaches, some so dedicated they coach more than one team. We truly appreciate all their time and effort that they put in with their kids throughout the season to make it a memorable experience. One thing that I have really tried to emphasize this year is making sure that the people who are putting their time and effort into this are recognized not only on the field but on our league Facebook page. We play five days a week, and some people are at the field every day. They do it for their love of the kids and our county and they want to see our league succeed. I think one of the most important things our league needs is the continued support of the community and volunteers. We can always use additional help. We are extremely thankful to all of our team sponsors that give donations at the beginning of the season for not only banners along the fence but sponsorship of the teams as well. I want to give a big thank you to all the coaches who have volunteered their time and to our board members. Thank you to our field crew – Kermie Holloway, Scott Johnson and Dave Patterson – for all the work they did at the beginning of the year and the continued work on our grounds including our two new flag poles. Thank you to Wendy Wood for being at the field almost every day announcing for our teams and keeping track of our score books, and special thanks to Lee Ann Kelly for working the concession stands pretty much every day of the season. Thank you to our treasurer, Gwen Schwartz, for taking care of financial needs behind the scenes and getting
Bill Rollins, leader of the local veterans, during the national anthem on the Little League field in Maynardville.
Little League swings for the fence By Libby Morgan Parents of Little League kids in Union County have noticed a renewal of energy lately. Josh Schwartz, who volunteered to head up the organization a few months ago, is enthusiastic and full of great ideas. A group of veterans were invited to come to the field on a recent Saturday morning to have a flag raising to replace the tattered one. In addition ongoing problems with water standing on the field have been mitigated, the Facebook page is ac-
tive, with frequent updates, information and posts and the older players’ winning teams will get trophies this year. Plans for new equipment, a batting cage and even a new field are in Schwartz’s sights. He sees this coming to fruition through a partnership with local businesses. And his greatest commitment is to show appreciation to the volunteers working with him, as he wrote in a recent letter (at right).
Healthy Kids Day is May 30 Healthy Kids Day will be held in and around the Maynardville Public Library on Saturday, May 30 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. with lots of free activities. The Union County UT Extension Office plans games, Xbox Kinect, storytime, food demonstrations, corn hole, photo opportunities, healthy snacks, eye exams, a bubble station,
vertical gardening, a scavenger hunt and safety information. The Union County Sheriff’s office will bring K-9 officers and bloodhounds. The library will sign up kids for their Summer Reading Program. Everyone is invited and there will be goodie bags for every child and lots of prizes.
our budget intact. I also want to thank Amanda Holloway, the league president the last couple years, who asked if I would consider taking it over. I thank her for all the documentation she had compiled to help the transition. I also want to thank Mayor Mike Williams, the Union County government, Union County Schools and the city of Maynardville for their continued support of our league. And we couldn’t do this without our volunteer coaches: Benji Harless, Karen Peace, Amanda Holloway, Aaron Wyrick, DJ Phillips, Matt Cooke, Adam Nicely, Nick Maples, Roy Kelly, Wendy Wood, Josh Schwartz, Becky Bailey, Ryan Bailey, Kermie Holloway, Scott Johnson, Dave Patterson, Aaron Nicely and Mike Hodge. One of the things I want to see us hopefully do in years to come is be able to establish another Little League field for season use throughout the year. (Editor’s note: according to Maynardville city manager Jack Rhyne, a grant is in the works for a ball field complex.) We are hoping to start bringing in a couple travel ball tournaments to play at our field to try and help draw more attention to our league and our area. I hope that we are able to start getting some new equipment at the field as a lot of our league equipment is older and I look to try and get some of that replaced later this year or next year. We have been talking about working on a long-term goal of getting a batting cage, but we understand that this will be a big expense and may take some time to get it done, but with the right budget planning, we hope to achieve that. I am hoping to upgrade our uniforms in the next couple years as well. It is also my goal in the years to come to work closely with the businesses in our county to promote not only the league but their business as well – this doesn’t only include sponsorship but possibly giving companies the opportunity of setting up booths at the field for their products or something to that effect. We want to do everything we can to keep our business local, such as buying uniforms and supplies within our county. I have truly enjoyed this first year as president of the Union County Little League. It is a lot of work and I knew it was going to be going in. I hope that this year has run smoothly for all parents, players, coaches and anyone associated with our league. It is my hope that our small county’s Little League program grows with more kids each and every year. I want all parents to know that any time you see me at the ball field and have a question or concern about anything, please come up and talk to me or send me a message through our Facebook page. It has been a pleasure to serve the families, and most importantly the children, in our community in this 2015 Little League season. We hope for many great years to come! Sincerely, Josh Schwartz
