Scheduled power outage Thursday by Laura Wagner Mountain View Standard News laura@mvstandard.com
Mountain View City Administrator Mike Wake gave an update on road work, scheduled power outages and Pioneer Day street closures for the upcoming week. "We will begin sweeping the excess gravel off the chip seal that was done a week and a half ago," began Wake. "The chip seal is not a hot mix. The road is not going to be a smooth surface," explained Wake on the road condition. "The chip seal is only meant to fill in the cracks and seal the pavement. It's not really meant to put a new, smooth ride on the road. This however will make the pavement last three to five years with very few potholes." City residents need to be aware of a scheduled power outage on Thursday, Sept. 25. According to Wake, the power outage will begin at around 10 p.m. and last from six to eight hours. The areas that will be affected are West of Pine Street and South of Highway 60. Temperatures are forecasted to be in the 50s for the evening so residents should not need their air conditioning units. Wake advised of checking alarm clocks for batteries and just being prepared for no electricity between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. For the upcoming Pioneer Days Wake wanted to inform residents of a few street closures that will begin Saturday, Sept. 27 at 5 a.m. "All of First Street, from Pine to Elm, will be closed. Elm Street will be closed up to Second Street and Oak Street will be closed up to Third Street." These street closures are to allow for set-up for the days activities. There will be a special opening for the vendors to drive in and set up. "I just wanted to finish by saying thank you to all residents for getting their brush out early so we could get that taken care of. Now the city is focusing on Pioneer Days," Wake concluded.

Liberty shuts down Bears 38-0 Capsized boat results by Brian Ingalls
Mountain View Standard News office@mvstandard.com
This is how you bounce back. The Eagles made it look easy on Friday night, traveling down Highway 60 and dominating the Willow Springs Bears in High School football by suffocating the Bears with defense, and playing one of their best games of the season on offense. Quarterback Josh Pruett completed 15 of 24 passes for 169 yards and a touchdown, while Jansen Acklin returned to the field to catch five of those passes as Liberty put the Bears away 38-0 to move to 4-1 on the season. More than just a bounce back game for the team, Friday night was a chance for some individual players to shine. Pruett’s stellar performance at quarterback was perhaps his best game of the season, not only going without an interception, but making some beautiful passes to five different receivers including a 42 yard strike to Andrew Raider in the second quarter. “It was good for the Josh and the team,” explained Liberty Head Coach Darin
Acklin, “Liberty needs to be able the throw the ball effectively for the spread attack to work. For Josh' s confidence and his receiving corp, it was good that they were able to execute. Also gets some pressure off of Porter and the running game if the passing game is efficient.” Liberty also had good news in two different ways from the Acklin family. On Saturday, Jaelon Acklin, last year’s starting quarterback for the Liberty Eagles got his first reception as a wide receiver for Western Illinois in Division 1 college football against Northwestern in a nationally televised game. The other bit of good news was Jaelon’s younger brother Jansen made it back on the field against Willow for the first time since the season opener after suffering a broken arm to start the season. “Jansen was very sore all week from practice,” explained Coach Acklin, “He seemed to get better right before the game, but the timing of everything was off a little.” Despite that, Acklin was still able to catch five passes for 32 yards, and rush twice

The Eagles defense gave up just five first downs all night, and held the Bears to under 100 yards of total offense. (Photo courtesy of Patricia Stoops) for 22 yards and a touchdown. He also picked off a pass to stop one of the Bears’ few scoring threats. Defensively, Liberty allowed just five first downs as they shut down the Bears offense, giving up just 82 yards of total offense. For their part, the Bears defense put up a fight as well, stopping Liberty from scoring on big plays and forcing the Eagles
to put together sustained drives. Bryan Porter led the Eagles in rushing with 137 yards on 24 carries, but his longest run of the night was just 13 yards. The Bears also managed to stop the Eagles on downs twice and forced them to punt three times, but in the end, they could only slow the Eagles See Football on Page 7

Mtn. View Pioneer Days, carrying on the tradition The Mtn. View Pioneer Days is a reflection of years past, traditions and good old fashion fun. It began on Saturdays in Mtn. View many years ago as people would travel into town to gather supplies and catch up on all the local news and gossip. Craftors set up
booths, logs were hauled to trade, farmers brought their livestock in to sell and women bargained at the local stores for their household wares. Once the trading was done, the socialization began. Stories were swapped, greetings were passed as
families and townsfolk gathered downtown. It was impossible to walk down the sidewalk of First Street, referred to as Front Street in the early days, due to the amount of people spilling into town. Saturdays was one of the few times during the busy work week that
people could relax and enjoy life. From early morning until late at night, Mtn. View drew folks from all neighboring communities to buy, sell, trade and socialize. Today, we celebrate those long ago Saturdays with Pioneer Days, a tradition in Mountain View for the past
24 years. The celebration is a chance for people to dress up in pioneer clothing, swap tales of how it used to be, watch demonstrations of how things were crafted and just kick back and have a good time with friends and neighbors. This year's Mtn. View
Pioneer Days will be held beginning Friday, Sept. 26 for the ham and bean supper at 4 p.m. at the Mtn. View Community Center. The festivities start early Saturday, Sept. 27 with food, fun, music and games for the whole family to enjoy.
Mtn. View, named for the splendid beauty of the area Editor’s Note: In the spirit of keeping traditions alive, the Standard News has included a brief history of Mountain View we hope our readers enjoy. Mountain View was named from the splendid beauty of the area, by John Goldsberry. William H. Goldsberry, John’s father, brought his family to Hutton Valley in 1847 (another account suggested it was 1853) and later moved to where Mountain View is now. “Elder” Goldsberry, as he was called, was a Baptist preacher for most of his life. He helped to start many churches in this region of the Ozarks and was highly respected by all who knew him. Goldsberry Township is named after him. He was also a businessman and prospector. In 1849, gold fever lured him to California in the pursuit of gold. However, after six months, illness forced him to return to Mountain View. After a long and productive life, he died in 1893 at the age of 81. William Goldsberry’s son, John Goldsberry, was born in Pulaski County in 1839. He was a small boy when he came to Mountain View with his family. He spent his youth working on their farm. As a young man, he fought in the Civil War. He returned after the war
ended to resume life on the farm. He had a passion for hunting and gained notoriety as a bear hunter. Eventually, he and John J. Campbell became two of Mountain View’s earliest storekeepers. In 1876, John Goldsberry bought into a partnership with John Campbell who then became a silent partner. John J. Campbell’s family homestead was located near Old Town. John Goldsberry was married twice and, tragically, both of his wives died. In 1861, he married Sarah Roark who died in 1872. He married his second wife, Dorcas Weaver in 1873. She was the daughter of Peter Weaver, and early settler of the county. She died several years later. Goldsberry never remarried again and had no children. Some accounts indicate that John Goldsberry was courting his second wife, Dorcas Weaver when the two of them were traveling with his father William Goldsberry on a business excursion. The travelers camped for the night at the Jacks Fork River. Surrounded by the splendid beauty of the area, the young couple decided to have his father perform their marriage right there at the river. As William Goldsberry filled out the marriage certificate, he had to enter
the name of the town in problem because their town around at the majestic hills our town, ‘Mountain View.’ which the couple was to be had no official name. As surrounding the Jacks Fork and that’s how Mountain married. Well, that was a William Goldsberry looked River he said, “Let’s call View got its name.

Remembering Mtn. View's Centennial, 1960 Many of our readers remember the Mountain View Centennial celebration held June 25th through July 2, 1960. It was a time of fun and silliness when the men grew their whiskers long, women wore pioneer dresses, townsfolk were auctioned off into slavery, a 70 year-old woman jumped off of a 95 foot platform, and the Smiley Burnette Show came to town. Other Centennial activities included parades, the dedication of the new Post Office, races for the kids, square dancing, a talent show, wrestling matches, a fiddling contest, beard judging and fireworks to name a few. Sounds a little like our presentday Pioneer Days Celebration. Townsfolk were all “encouraged” to participate. For instance, if a man did not grow whiskers, he needed a shaving permit or face a $1.00 fine and an hour in the stockade. And the ladies weren’t exempt. Those who weren’t in costume had to buy a badge or they, too,
would pay a fine and spend some time in the stockade. The slave auctions were especially popular events. Each “slave” was auctioned off to
the highest bidder amidst hoots and hollers from the rowdy crowd. The “slaves” were then obliged to work for eight hours at their masters’ bidding.
The day following the close of the Centennial, acres of beards were mowed and the era of the “Brothers of the Brush” had come to an end.

Cutting Taxes and Creating Jobs
This week, the United States House of Representatives passed the “Jobs for America Act” to grow our economy and put Americans back to work. This package of bills included proposals to provide our farmers and small business owners with needed tax relief, and reduce unnecessary regulations. For the 2014 tax year, unless the “Jobs for America Act” or something like it passes, the amount of equipment that farmers and small businesses can expense like tractors, heavy machinery, or computer software, will be reduced by ninety-five percent. Section 179 of the tax code – the section that provides for the equipment deduction – expired on January first of this year. Unless it is renewed for 2014, folks will only be able to expense five percent as much of the equipment on their farm, or in their business, that they were able to expense in 2013. Small businesses and farmers will make up for this difference by buying less equipment, and hiring less help. To fix this problem, and to prevent folks from having to make difficult decisions about how they are going to pay higher tax bills, I have co-sponsored legislation, and the House has now passed it twice, to make the full expensing allowance permanent. Providing small businesses and farmers with this kind of tax relief will help them to grow our economy and create jobs. In addition to our tax burden, I often hear that rules and regulations are the biggest obstacle to growing our economy. The “Jobs for America Act” includes several pieces of legislation that I have co-sponsored and worked on in committee to prevent new harmful regulations. The act would prevent expensive rules and regulations from being created without a vote of Congress. It would also help small businesses and farmers grow and expand by preventing agencies from developing new rules and regulations in closed-door court settlements. The House continues to work on legislation like the “Jobs for America Act” to grow our economy while the Senate sits on its hands. There are now over 40 jobs bills that have been passed by the House that the Senate refuses to even take up. Americans want to work, why doesn’t the Senate?

Thursday, September 18, 2014 A male subject contacted the Howell County Sheriff’s Office and reported that someone broke a window at his residence at Private Road 6421 in West Plains and entered the residence.

Death Notices Sherri Higgins
Wilma Dean (Cooley) Conway Wilma Dean Cooley Conway was born on March 19, 1934, in Shannon County, Missouri, near Two Rivers, to Joseph Hercules Cooley and Eldora Isabel Osborne Cooley Dyer. She arrived two months prematurely and spent the first months of her life in a box behind the wood
stove. Wilma accepted Jesus as her Savior at an early age and was not able to be baptized because of the cold weather. As an adult because of Jesus' example and command she was baptized into Christ and lived faithfully the rest of her life. She met her future husband, Wayne, when she was 14 years old. She was coming out of Granny Dorie’s cellar, hit her head on a low board, and had a few choice words to say (which made Wayne think, “THAT’S the ONE for me!”). At age 17, she married Wayne who was 19 at Bethany Chapel near Eminence, Missouri. With very little money and no vehicle they soon moved to St. Louis to find jobs. She gave birth to Patricia Annette Conway Rhodes almost a year later. Pat could be ornery at times as a child. One of Wilma’s favorite stories was about Pat misbehaving at about the age of 2 and not knowing how else to make her “mind,” so she tied her to a chair with some kitchen towels…and
Pat turned the chair over. Bradley Wayne Conway was born two years later. Wilma would often recall that, at birth, Brad looked like Wayne “shrunken down.” Wilma and Wayne lived in St. Louis City until 1963, when they moved to Fenton, Missouri. They went back to Shannon County as often as they could to see family and friends over the years as they missed being home. In 1970, they bought their farm on Little Shawnee. They spent the next 23 years living and working in Fenton and coming down to the farm on Friday nights and leaving late Sunday afternoon after doing many chores. During that time, they missed very few weekends going to their special place which they loved so much. Pop always said she was his best farm hand and could cook to boot! Wilma worked for Commonwealth Insurance Company and Norge Village Cleaners. She then was a cook for 28 years at Fox Senior High School in Arnold, Missouri, and was loved by many students. Where she could also check on her children. She was a great cook at home too: she made the best potato salad, corn bread dressing, and biscuits and chocolate gravy. Of course not all of her talents were handed down. She and daughter Pat took cake decorating classes. At one class Wilma was intently making a rose and looked over at Pat and saw she was eating the icing instead of practicing. She simply said to her “you know you’re not supposed to eat that” and went on making her rose. She was acutely resourceful and creative, as well. One time, granddaughter Jessica needed an apron and bonnet for a play she was in. After
not being able to find a pattern to use, Wilma created her own out of cardboard and used left over material to sew them, only days after having surgery. She was preceded in death by her parents, Joe and Dorie; her siblings, Juanita “Dude,” Otto, Utah, Albert, and Nelly; and her beloved husband, Wayne. Wilma has two children; Patricia Annette Rhodes and husband Roland, and Bradley Wayne Conway and wife Chris; four grandchildren Jennifer Lee Blankenship and husband Nick, Jessica Carrie Eldora Rhodes, Matthew Wayne Conway and wife Jacy, Amanda Jeanne Sophia Rhodes, and one great grandchild Kenzlee Lenora Blankenship; her sister Bert; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends; her dog, Stormy, and barn full of cats. Wilma’s family thanks you all for coming here today to celebrate a life well-lived. No matter how others might have hurt her, Wilma always forgave them, in the spirit of Jesus’ loving heart. When you go home, be sure to hug your loved ones, forgive them for any misunderstandings, and remember that tomorrow is not promised.

wanted to be in the woods during hunting season for the fresh air and solitude communicating with nature. For many years Jim faithfully mowed the lawn for his church.

Albert enjoyed many things in life, studying the Bible, working in the garden, cleaning scrap metal, playing chess,
fishing, hunting, camping, but nothing gave him more joy than visiting with family and friends. As much as Albert loved his family and the life God gave him, he often commented on how much he missed his wife Clara, and how much it grieved him that they should be kept apart for so long. So after having him keep his children company through the loss of our dear mother, God answered dad's prayer and took him home, where in time we all be united again.

Wandering Solutions for Alzheimer's Caregivers Dear Savvy Senior, My mother, who lives with me, has Alzheimer’s disease and I worry about her wandering away. What tips can you recommend to help me protect her? Concerned Daughter Dear Concerned, According to the Alzheimer’s Association, about 60 percent of people who suffer from dementia wander at some point. For caregivers, this can be frightening because many of those who wander off end up confused and lost, even in their own neighborhood, and are unable to communicate who they are or where they live. But there are things you can do to guard against this and protect your loved one. Wandering Prevention For starters, to help reduce your mom’s tendency to wander, keep her occupied and involved in familiar daily activities such as preparing dinner or folding the laundry. It’s also important to encourage daily exercise and limit daytime napping to reduce nighttime restlessness. There are also a number of simple home modifications you can make to keep her from wandering away. Some possible solutions include: adding an extra lock on the top or bottom of the exterior doors out of the line of sight; install child-proof door knobs or levers; place a full-length mirror, or put a “STOP” or “Do Not Enter” sign on the doors you don’t want her going through; or get a signal device or motion sensor that lets you know when the door is opened. See alzstore.com for a variety of product solutions. And, be sure you hide the car keys to keep her from driving. It’s also a good idea to alert your neighbors that your mom may wander so they can keep an eye out, and have on hand a recent picture to show around the neighborhood or to the police if she does get lost.
Wandering Services If you want some added protection in case she does wander off, there are a number services you can turn to for help, like the MedicAlert + Safe Return program (medicalert.org/safereturn). This service comes with a personalized ID bracelet that will have your mom’s medical information engraved on it, along with her membership number and the toll-free MedicAlert emergency phone number. If she goes missing, you would call 911 and report it to the local police department who would begin a search, and then report it to MedicAlert. Or, a Good Samaritan or police officer may find her, call the MedicAlert number, to get her back home safely. Another option that could help, depending on where you live, is a radio frequency locater service like SafetyNet and Project Lifesaver, which are offered by some local law enforcement agencies. With these services, your mother would wear a wristband that contains a radio transmitter that emits tracking signals. If she goes missing, you would contact the local authorities who would send out rescue personnel who will use their tracking equipment to locate her. Visit safetynetbylojack.com and projectlifesaver.org to see if these services are available in your community. GPS Tracking There are also a number of GPS tracking devices that can help you keep tabs on your mom. With these products, she would carry or wear a small GPS tracker that would notify you or other caregivers via text message or email if she were to wander beyond a preestablished area, and would let you know exactly where to find her if she did. To find GPS trackers, consider the PocketFinder (pocketfinder.com) or the Alzheimer’s Association Comfort Zone (alz.org/comfortzone). Or, if you have concerns that your mother wouldn’t wear a GPS device or would take it off, there’s the GPS SmartSole (gpssmartsole.com), which is an insole with an embedded GPS device. For more wandering prevention tips and solutions, visit the Alzheimer’s Association Safety Center at alz. org/safety and This Caring Home at thiscaringhome.org. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior. org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

Breaking Tackles! Bryan Porter (12) runs over a Willow Springs Bear on the way to the end-zone in Friday night's game at Willow Springs. Porter averaged over five yards a carry against the Bears, finishing the day with 24 carries for a 137 yards and one touchdown. Liberty defeated Willow Springs 38-0. (Photo courtesy of Patricia Stoops) down. Liberty took a 13-0 lead in the first quarter, extended that to 20-0 by halftime, added two more touchdowns in the third, and put together a JV drive in the fourth quarter a for a 38-0 victory. The win sets up a game this Friday night against the Mountain Grove Panthers with SCA Championship implications. Despite losing to the Ava Bears on September 12, a win this Friday would put the Eagles, Panthers, and Bears atop the conference with one loss each with three games to go. For now at least, it means the Eagles control their own destiny. Friday night, the Eagles controlled the Willow Springs Bears. Liberty kicked off to the Bears who took over on their own 41 yard line and went nowhere, punting to the Eagles four plays later. Liberty took over on their 31 yard line and started with four consecutive runs by Bryan Porter who ripped off gains of 11, 11, 7, and 10. That put Liberty deep in Bears’ territory, and a third down pass from Pruett to Brenton Bush gave Liberty a first down at the Willow Springs 15 yard line. Pruett passed to Acklin to move Liberty to the eight yard line, and two plays later the Eagles had a 7-0 lead. The special teams for the Eagles made a play on the ensuing kickoff as a big hit separated the Willow Springs returner from the ball and
Liberty recovered. The Eagles went to work with a pass to Acklin for 12 yards. Pruett kept the ball on an option play for a first down at the 10 yard line. One play later, the Eagles scored again for a 13-0 lead. Both teams defenses tightened for the rest of the first quarter and much of the second. The Bears offense managed a first down on their next series, and tried a fake punt four plays later but to no avail. Both teams turned the ball over on downs their next two possessions. The only score in the second quarter came when the Eagles took advantage of good field position at the Bears 41 yard line and used five plays to reach the end-zone. Pruett passed to Luke Daniels for 11 yards, and Acklin for eight more. The Eagles pounded the Bears with three straight running plays, as Acklin picked up the ball to score from 16 yards out. Late in the half, Willow Springs had their chance with good field position but an interception by Acklin stopped their drive and the Eagles went into the locker room with a 20-0 lead. Liberty wasted no time as the second half got underway. After the kickoff, the Eagles marched 78 yards in nine plays for a 26-0 lead. Pruett capped off the drive with a 14-yard run, followed by a 30-pass to Andrew Raider in the corner of the end-zone. As the quarter came to a close, the Eagles were just outside the Bears’ end-zone
again, after putting together a drive that marched from their 45 yard line to the Bears seven. Five players had the ball in their hands along the way, as Liberty mixed runs by Porter, Pruett, and Kole Orchard with passes to Brenton Bush before scoring as the fourth quarter began on two runs by Marcos Rodriguez. The touchdown gave Liberty a 32-0 lead, which became 38-0 on their next possession after the JV players put together their own eight play, 57 yard drive. Orchard had the key play when he broke tackles and got loose for a 24-yard run on third down, carrying the ball to the Bears 6 yard line. Rodriguez scored his second touchdown of the night three plays later and the turbo clock finished off the game. Liberty took home the 38-0 victory.

by Benjamin Herrold Sports Columnist After a long and sometimes strange afternoon at Faurot Field last Saturday, Indiana’s D’Angelo Roberts leapt over the line and landed in the end zone to put the Hoosiers on top with 22 seconds left. A hush fell over the old stadium. Indiana held on for the shocking 31-27 win, a usual Big Ten bottom feeder going on the road and beating the defending SEC East champion. The stunning defeat knocked Missouri (3-1) out of the rankings and raised some doubts after three straight wins kept upping the optimism. The teams played a close contest, but Indiana (2-1) took control of the line of scrimmage, and Missouri was unable to extend its nation-leading streak of 47 straight games forcing a turnover. The absence of injured defensive end Markus Golden hurt, but this was still a game Missouri should have won. To keep perspective, this loss doesn’t affect Missouri’s chances of winning the SEC East again. The season can still be a great one. But like all games, it affects
the Tigers’ bowl status and program image. Every time the team runs out in Mizzou uniforms, it matters whether they win or lose. It was probably a classic look-ahead game, with Missouri’s huge game at South Carolina looming on Saturday (6 p.m. on ESPN). This can happen almost subconsciously, even if players try to focus on the task at hand. I know it happened for me. But in my defense, this Saturday’s game should be quite a scene. Tiger fans know Missouri’s Columbia is the best one, but the Columbia in South Carolina provides a great setting for a college football game. Coach Steve Spurrier, the SEC legend who won the Heisman Trophy at Florida and has more SEC coaching wins than anyone except Bear Bryant, has the Gamecock program up and running. Williams-Brice Stadium right before kickoff is a sight to behold, with fans frantically waving white rally towels and the speakers thumping out “Sandstorm.” The loss to Indiana has not dampened my enthusiasm for making the trip East to see this game.

They were seeded first overall for the tournament. The Lady Eagles dominated in the quarterfinals defeating Thayer 25-4 and 25-5 then soaring through semifinals defeating Summersville 25-12 and 25-11. They met up with the Indians again and fell in thre sets 25-22, 13-25 and 15-25. Leading the day in kills was Cheyenne Day with 36 and Johonna Walkup
with 32. Courtney Thomas finished with 49 assists in four games after going down with an injury before playsoffs began. With Thomas' injury, the freshman Berry twins were forced to step into the spotlight and did a terrific job for the remainder of the day. Brook Conway, who suffered an injury last week, is expected to be back sometime this week. On Tuesday, Sept. 16 the Lady Eagles travelled to Salem where they defeated Lady Tigers 25-2 and 25-8. Stretch had 5 kills and Walkup had 5 aces.
Ending the week on a high note, the Lady Eagles bagged another victory over the Thayer Lady Bobcats on Thursday, Sept. 18. The Eagles won in two sets 25-9 and 25-5. Stretch, Day and Brenley Stearns and 5 kills each and Walkup had 5 aces. The Lady Eagles travelled to Winona on Monday, Sept. 22 (there will be no JV game), then travel to Mtn. Grove on Tuesday, Sept. 23. They will end the week with a home game on Thursday, Sept. 25 against Willow Springs. The game starts at 6 p.m. with varsity playing first.
The Lady Eagles competed in the Bakersfield Lady Lions Classic Softball Tournament on Saturday, Sept. 13. For the first game, Liberty faced the Thayer Lady Bobcats coming up short 6-16. For the game, Jess Mantel: 1/3 1R; Jaci Mantel: 2/3, 2 RBI and Autumn Johnson: 2/3, 2R and 2 RBI. "The score was tied 6-6 going into the fourth and the wheels just came off, which wold become a theme as the day wore on," recalled Head Coach Robert Brown. "We gave up 7 runs in the fourth and by then the game was out of reach." Game two the Lady Eagles came out ready to win as they defeated the Alton Lady Comets 16-5. For the game,
Bethanie Daniels: 1/3, 3 RBI; Johnson: 0/1, 2 RBI; Jaci Mantel 3R and Mikayla Daniels: 1/4, 2R and 2 RBI. "We were very patient at the plate, we didn't swing at bad pitches and we took advantage of 15 base on balls," commented Coach Brown. "Our pitcher Brooke Taylor had her best performance of the year. She didn't get rattled, stayed focused and had good control. We made plays behind her." The win put the Lady Eagles in the consolation finals of the tournament. In a hard fought game, the Lady Eagles fell to Laquay 9-10. For the game, Jess Mantel: 2/3, 2 R; Johnson: 2/3, 4 RBI; Bethanie Daniel: 1/3, 2 RBI and Leana Briggs:
1/2, 1R. "This was a flashback to game one of the tournament. Going into the fourth inning we had a 9-6 lead and a self implosion followed," reflected Brown on the game. "We gave up four runs in the fourth on five walks, 2 hit batters and 1 hit. These tournament games run on a 75-minute time and after the fourth run, Laquay rallied and time expired. We really let this one get away. Overall, a lot of positive to be taken for the day. We hit the ball very well, consistently, each game. Our defense is improving. We just need more strikes from our pitchers, pitch to contact and make our defense work." In a disappointing loss, the Lady Eagles fell to Mansfield 3-13 on Thursday, Sept. 18. "We threatened early in the game but couldn't get a big hit. We had bases loaded with nobody in both the second and fourth inings. Base running mistakes and some crucial strikeouts doomed any change of scoring," stated Coach Brown. "If we could have scratched out a couple of runs in each inning it could have been a 5-4 game going into the sixth." For the game, Johnson: 1/1, 1R, 2 BB; Bethanie Daniels: 2/3, 1R; Mikayla Daniels: 1/3, 1R, 1 RBI; Jaci Mantel: 2/3, 1R, 1 RBI; Taylor: 1 RBI and Briggs: 1 RBI.

Grizzlies pick up key Region 16 win
The Missouri State University-West Plains Grizzly Volleyball team picked up a key Region 16 win Tuesday, Sept. 16, when it defeated the Mineral Area College (MAC) Cardinals from Park Hills, Missouri, 25-20, 25-19, 17-25, 13-25, 18-16 in the Joe Paul Evans Arena at the West Plains Civic Center. The Grizzlies started the contest well, committing only three hitting errors in the first two sets, but their fortunes changed in the third and fourth sets. “We literally backed off. We started forcing everything, which never works,” Grizzly Volleyball Head Coach Paula Wiedemann said. “The first two games we were flowing and took good care of the ball, but when MAC made a little run in set three, we got stuck in one rotation and we did nothing to force a side out.

Grizzlies committed 18 hitting errors as they struggled to get back on track. “It was a huge fight, but it was good to see us battle back and win that fifth set, and ultimately the match. We’re 1-0 in the region now, and that’s huge. Every region match is huge, so this is a great win,” Wiedemann said. Despite the problems of the third and fourth set, Wiedemann said she did see improvement in the team. “The things we worked on in the gym, we saw improvement in those areas last night. We just haven’t reached the point where we play with confidence when things get tough, and that has to change. This group can be strong. They just need to understand the team role is bigger than the individual role. I hope this win will motivate them as they move forward through the season,” the coach said.

Discover nature with elk driving tours on Current River, Peck Ranch An additional route will make it easier than ever to see Missouri’s wild elk this year, according to the Missouri Department of Conservation. The Conservation Department began encouraging Missourians to view elk along designated internal roads at Peck Ranch Conservation Area (CA) shortly after bringing the first wild elk to Missouri in 2011. The self-guided driving tour has become a popular tourist attraction, especially in October, when bull elk are bugling as part of their mating ritual. Elk are also establishing
themselves on the nearby Current River CA, which is in the 346-square-mile Elk Restoration Zone in and around Peck Ranch CA. Habitat improvements have created excellent elk viewing opportunities along internal roads at Current River CA. To help visitors find elk, the Conservation Department has designated a driving tour route that follows portions of Roads No. 1, 9, and 10. Designated roads on Current River and Peck Ranch CAs are shown on maps available through the Conservation Atlas at mdc. mo.gov/atlas. Simply enter the area name and follow
the links to the area map. “Signs mark the driving routes at both Current River and Peck Ranch,” says Elk Program Manager David Hasenbeck. “Seeing elk in the wild is an aweinspiring experience, and we are very excited about offering this additional place where people can enjoy elk in October, when bulls are bugling and trees are blazing with fall color.” Hasenbeck says the Conservation Department worked with local communities, landowners, the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, and other conservationists to relocate more than 100
wild elk from Kentucky to the restoration zone in Reynolds, Carter, and Shannon counties. The best times to see elk and other wildlife are right after sunrise and right before sunset. The tour route at Peck Ranch begins at the CA office and is marked with signs along the way. The tour route is open from sunrise to sunset daily, unless closed because of inclement weather or a managed deer hunt. “We encourage people to take photographs from their vehicles,” says Hasenbeck, “but please do not disturb elk or other wildlife in any way. It’s also important for
visitors to know that gravel roads on Peck Ranch may not be accessible to vehicles without adequate ground clearance, and some roads may be impassible at times due to high water at stream crossings.” The elk driving tour routs at Peck Ranch CA will be closed for managed hunts Oct. 11 and 12, Oct. 31 through Nov. 2, Nov. 15 through 25, and Dec. 6 and 7. For more information about elk driving tours at Peck Ranch CA, call the 855-MDC-ELK (855-2632355). For information about the tour at Current River CA, call 573-663-7130. Hasenbeck also suggests
that visitors stop at the Twin Pines Conservation Education Center, which is 1 mile east of Winona on Route 60. Twin Pines is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday to Saturday. For more information on Twin Pines, call 573-325-1381, or go online to mdc.mo.gov/ node/293. “The nearby communities of Eminence, Ellington, Winona, and Van Buren also offer fall events and other outdoor activities,” says Hasenbeck. “They are great places to stop for a bite to eat, a bit of shopping, an overnight stay, and other nature-related outdoor adventures.”

Ozarks Fruit & Garden Review From Garden to Houseplant by Marilyn Odneal Horticulture Adviser The growing season is winding down and my garden is looking a bit worse for wear. Soon the frosts will come and our lovely annuals will be killed and our herbaceous perennials will die back to the ground. But don’t despair – you can bring some of the outdoors in by taking and rooting cuttings of your garden plants. The new plants produced from cuttings will certainly brighten up the house during the fall and winter months. So why not just dig up some of your plants, put them in a pot and bring them indoors? First of all, soil is a great medium to grow plants in the ground, but when you put it in a pot, water does not drain from it as readily as from a sterile rooting medium. At
the end of the season, many plants are too large to put in the house, they may harbor some insects, and they may die after being transplanted into the indoor environment. Taking a cutting is a much better idea. Garden ornamental like coleus, begonia, geraniums (Pelargonium), impatiens and fuchsia or herbs like basil or mint are good candidates for cuttings. To take your cutting, use a sharp knife or pruning shears because you want a clean cut, not a ragged one that would invite disease. The cutting should be taken from a healthy plants and should be from three to five inches long. Remove the basal leaves and any flowers from the cutting and leave three to four leaves on the upper part. You can also pinch out the succulent tip of the plant. If the leaves are
Basil Cutting - This basil cutting was taken from the garden, the basal leaves were removed and the tip was cut out. It is ready to root in either a glass or water or in sterile potting media. Once rooted, it will grow as a houseplant and can be used as a fresh herb for cooking. (Photo provided to the Standard)
larger, you may cut them in half. It is through the leaves that the plant loses water, so you want to reduce the leaf area since your cutting does not have roots yet. At this point the cutting is ready to root. You may use a rooting hormone product according to package directions if desired. Use a sterile rooting media such as perlite, vermiculite or sterile potting media. Soil is not a good rooting media for a potted plant. Stick the basal, leafless portion of the cutting into the moist media. Some easy to root plants will root in a glass of water, but then you need to transplant it anyway, so it is easier if you just root it in the pot that it will continue to grow in. Cover with a plastic bag (no need to seal the bag) and place your cutting in indirect light – a north window is fine. If you put it in direct sunlight, you will cook your cutting. Keep an eye on the temperature and make sure it doesn’t go below 55 degrees at night. In about three weeks, your cutting should root (tug at it a bit to see) and you will have a fresh young plant for to brighten up the cold season. Rooting cuttings is a great way to bring your summer garden indoors for the winter and help keep your spirits up until next spring.

2nd Annual Toy Drive
Standard News Archive - Thursday, October 17, 1974 - Mtn. View firemen were called to the scene of Town and Country Supermarket early Wednesday morning, Oct. 16, 1974, when the building burst into flames. A neighbor living nearby reported the fire at 6 a.m. and said flames were coming out of the roof at the time. The building was completely consumed with fire by the time firemen arrived and little could be done to save the structure. Mtn. View Policeman Gene Elder and other eyewitnesses reported hearing an explosion just before the building burst into flames. Firemen speculated that the blaze may have been caused by an exploding furnace, as the walls of the building in the furnace area were pushed outward. Dorvan Bilbrey, manager of the supermarket, was unable to give an estimate of the damages at the time. The building was owned by Lloyd Smith of Mtn. View.
