“The Best We’ve Got: The Carl Erskine Story,” premiered on the big screen Aug. 11 at the Paramount Theatre in Erskine’s hometown of Anderson. The film, produced by renowned film maker Ted Green, takes a deep dive into Erskine’s upbringing as a child and his legendary career in Major League Baseball with Jackie Robinson, the first African American to break the color barrier in a sport that was segregated for more than 50 years. The film will take viewers on Erskine’s most proud adventure when he and his wife, Betty, have their son Jimmy, who was born with Down syndrome, and will share their story and impact they’ve made on Special Olympics Indiana and social change across the country.
Green has dedicated many laborious hours over the years to inform the world about the life of one of the best humanity has to offer. This master piece will include powerful and inspirational interviews from some of the most respected fig ures around. Charley Steiner, multiple national Emmy winner at ESPN and the lead radio voice of the Los Angeles Dodgers, narrates the documen tary. The late Vin Scully, who spent 67 seasons call ing games for the Dodgers, will be featured in the film. Other notable figures are Bob Costas, Governor Mitch Daniels, and Dr. Tim Shriver, son
Carl Erskine, the man who is living a perfect game, will be brought to the big screen in Wabash, Indiana, with the showing of “The Best We’ve Got: The Carl Erskine Story” on Sept. 26 at the Eagles Theatre, 106 W. Market St.
Erskine has been referred to as many things. In the classic baseball novel “The Boys of Summer”, Erskine was referred to as a philosopher, a poet and an “existential man.” A New York sports writer called him “the gentleman from Indiana.” Dennis Schmidt, former CEO of Special Olympics Indiana, said Erskine is the most decent man he’s ever met. Former Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, in giving Erskine the state’s highest honor, said sim ply, “He’s the best we’ve got.”

supports action items from the Imagine One 85 comprehensive plan such as creating kindness ini tiative and continuing to support the County’s commitment to a diverse, equitable, and inclusive community for all.
With Erskine being such a pivotal figure in Special Olympics Indiana’s history, the organiza tion has partnered with Ted Green Films to spread Erskine’s messages of friendship, inclu sion, servant leadership, and respect.
Tickets for the Sept. 26 event are $6 and are on sale now through www.honeywellarts.org/carlerskine.

I have heard more than once from parents with toddlers how watchful they have to be when at the park because of the possibility that their child might pick up a cigarette butt to put in their mouths.
Dear Editor:
The number one item that litters our streets and sidewalks are cigarette butts. For some reason discarding “butts” on the street and sidewalk seems to be okay, it doesn’t matter. Well, it does matter. Many think that cigarette butts are an acceptable type of litter because there whichcellulosetypearebiodegrade.buttsthatmisconceptionthisiscigarettewillTheymadeofaofplastic,acetate,doesnotdegrade
Smokers need to think about our environment
the editor’s judgment, personal attacks, inflammatory statements and legally objectionable material will not be printed.Personal attacks against individuals or businesses will not be printed.
We can do something about that! We have to stop thinking about the “right” to smoke and start thinking about the “right” for a cleaner environment, safer parks, and clean air.
I am asking that you pick up the sword to make our parks, communities a safer place to live. We all have a “right” to live in a safe, healthy environment.
This has nothing to do with a person’s right to smoke. It has everything to do with the right to have a healthy life that is not exposed by others who choose to smoke in public places around other people, and do not take pride in our parks, streets, and sidewalks, and just discard their cigarette butts to theTheground.city of Wabash and Wabash County Tobacco discardpossibletogetherCoalitionFreemadeittocigarette
Let’s all work together to keep Wabash clean by disposing the cigarette butts properly and keeping the trash off the streets and sidewalks. –Dan Gray, Executive Director, Tobacco Free Coalition
One of the best ways to limit the discarded cigarette butts is to limit where people smoke and make everyone aware of how toxic the “butt” is and how harmful it is to our environment. Our parks should be a safe place for our families and children.
How to submit letters
Whoever took the lids and the receptacle are asked to return them. No questions asked, bring them to the Tobacco Free Coalition office or to City Hall.

butts in a safe and clean dispenser placed throughout the downtown area. There are cigarette butt receptacles on some of the trash bins so the “butts” do not have to be thrown to the street and sidewalk. This attempts to keep our downtown area cleaner. It is a sad affair that many do not use them as you can still see cigarette butts discarded on the sidewalks along with other trash. Also, for some reason, someone has taken one of the receptacles and lids of three are gone.
