Two EAST students at South SideBee Branch High School are working on a Virtual Reality App for Occupational Therapy students. Their work began late October 2017. At that time, Dillon Hall and Blake Battles, then both 15, were first-year EAST students, in a first-year program at South Side-Bee Branch, with a first-year facilitator, Julie` Nelson. According to Nel-

son, EAST (Education Accelerated by Service and Technology) is a program that encourages students to use critical thinking, collaboration, and creative problem solving to solve real world situations in their school, community, and their world. EAST advocates lifelong learning and community service, enabling students to become positive agents of change to improve the world around them.

The two young men began this journey when they approached the school Occupational Therapist, Marcus Hutto, about designing a game that might help his students. It soon became apparent that what started off as a paper and pencil “game” was not really an EAST project and that there were alSee App on page 5

brary, the Butler Center, and Crystal Bridges Museum. On Monday, Oct. 22, a group of 11thand 12th-grade students traveled to Bentonville to study Nari Ward’s WE THE PEOPLE installation art and toured the special exhibit Native Voices. This semester they will complete the program by creating and implementing a civic engagement project with the theme of Community and Culture.

Choctaw Fire Department gets grant The Choctaw Volunteer Fire Department has received a $15,000 grant through the Arkansas Rural Community Grant Program.

Bee Branch ISO

The Bee Branch Volunteer Fire Department has recently been notified that it has earned an ISO rating of 4 effective Jan. 1, 2019. The department has worked heard for four years toward improving its rating and tested last spring, said Fire Chief Jess Burris. ISO ratings can have an effect on homeowners’ insurance policies, and the lower the better on the ISO scale.

Lalla’s Garden by Jeff Burgess and Lalla Lee Ostergren

Freeze likely on way (Longtime organic gardening friends Jeff and Lalla share their gardening experience, strength and hope here monthly. Lalla, 94, is under hospice care and just celebrated her one year anniversary of coming home from the nursing home) “Was that frost on the pumpkins last week, Jeff?” “It was a week ago last Monday morning and it was only on one potted mum sitting on top a barrel. The frost was very spotty although a neighbor said she had to scrape it off her windshield and several said they saw some at lower elevations. The forecast says there might be some towards the end of this week.” “Well, it’s that time of year. I’m just amazed our summer garden is still producing.” “Yes, me too! We are still harvesting tomatoes, sweet peppers, okra and green beans although growth has slowed as the temperatures have gotten cooler.” “And what about our late planted crops, Jeff?” “Carrots, radishes, beets, kale, lettuce, garden cress and Swiss chard are all looking good and should have no problems with the first few frosts. The early August planted beans are not going to produce but we're going to get a few cucumbers that were planted at the same time.” “Are those the Japanese hybrid cucumbers you mentioned?” See Garden on page 5

Remembering Lalla's Garden Garden from page 4 “Yes. Rough surfaced, long and slender, small seed cavity and oh so crispy crunchy. Yummy!” “Those won’t get through the next frost.” “You’re probably right so I’ll harvest the mature fruits and cover the plants with frost blankets. Maybe we can get the smaller fruits to develop a bit more if the frosts are not severe.” “Did you dig up the sweet potatoes? They should be inside curing.” “We didn’t have sweet potatoes this year, Lalla.” “Oh OK. Did you plant the garlic cloves and winter onions? There’s still time.” “Yes, Lalla and I mulched them.” “Good! How about cleaning the raspberry beds and mulching the fig trees? Mulch those figs heavily, 8 inches now, more as that settles.” “I’ll get it done. I’ve lost figs in cold winters due to a lack of mulch before.” “And are all the houseplants indoors yet, Jeff? You know they help remove toxins from inside the home.” “Yes I know. NASA published a list of the best houseplants for cleansing the indoor atmosphere of common household pollutants. Some it included

were garden mum, spider plant, Dracaena, ficus, peace lily, Boston fern, snake plant, bamboo palm, and aloe vera. There are more.” “Indoor pet owners should know that some on the list are toxic to animals.So do your research.” “Are you going to plant us some November potatoes, Jeff?” “I will if you want. I never have.” “Yes, please. Plant them 4 inches deep and keep 8 inches of mulch over them. You will have to add more mulch as it settles.” “OK, can do.” “The ones I’ve enjoyed growing the most are planted in large flowerpots. When harvest time comes, turn the pot upside down. You will have small, medium and large sizes. I replant the small ones back in the pots and enjoy eating the others.” “That sounds easy enough.” “If you do it that way you’ll need to move the pots into the greenhouse when it gets really cold.” “Can I use cricket frass in the pots, Lalla?” “Cricket what?” “Cricket frass.” “Cricket grass?” “No frass, frass, frass!” “Cricket frass?” “Yes! You’ve got it!” “OK, just don’t make me say that again. What is it?” “Cricket poop.”

ote

“Hahaha. It must have taken you a long time to gather much of that.” “I didn’t. Some guy in Damascus has a cricket farm and is packaging their waste product and selling it as an all purpose organic plant food. It has a good mix of the 3 primary nutrients needed by plants, and calcium.” “This is a new one on me. Jeff, do you have relatives working for this company or a financial interest in it?” “Now it’s my turn to laugh Lalla but no. My friend Cathy, who also has no financial interest in it, gave me a sample to test.” “Well OK then let’s try it and see what happens. I’ve never been afraid of using chicken poop as fertilizer. I guess this isn’t really much different.” “You know Lalla this is also the time of year to think ‘microgreening.’” “Ok tell us more, Jeff.” “It’s countertop gardening indoors that allows people to have fresh produce all winter long. It’s simply clusters of baby plants grown in soil or hydroponically. It takes sprouts a bit further so that there is leaf development. Setting up the flats on a counter, wide windowsill or table is most of the work. After that it’s just a daily misting and then harvest.” “Oh I like the sounds of this for my salads and vegetable juices. Let’s try it, Jeff.” Hope to see you in the garden next month.

App from page 1 ready plenty of paper and pencil applications for OT students. While using the EAST Virtual Reality Oculus and a game designing software called Unity, Dillon and Blake realized that a virtual reality app would offer a new avenue of strengthening OT students’ skills while using a popular, widely accessible format. “When we first started out I was thinking it was just another game. It was more of a project for a grade, rather than for the kids,” Blake says. “But the more research, time, and investment we put it into it I realized how advantageous it was for the OT kids, rather than just another game to put on the Oculus.” “We hope to provide the kids with a fun way of strengthening their skills … a way they can enjoy therapy and benefit from it,” says Dillon. The app is designed for students who have trouble with visual motor integration caused by a limited acuity, and/or visual perception deficits, and/or a poor fine or gross motor ability. The app offers varying degrees of difficulty, and is designed for a broad population. “Even though VR technology has been around for a while we are only now starting to realize the potential uses of this tech-

As the technology becomes more integrated into our smart phones and even televisions there is a growing market for both therapeutic and accessibility applications,” said Hutto. The boys have written and received funding from two grants to help them purchase items they need in the Unity Asset store for their app. Dillon and Blake hope to begin BETA testing in the next month

under the guidance of Hutto. Along the way, they have realized that the app may have greater implications than just for Occupational Therapy students as stroke patients may also benefit from this app. “It’s exciting to watch these two young men work. They’ve gone from ‘I’m only doing this for the grade,’ to thinking and problem solving about it in overdrive!” Nelson says. “Monday mornings in EAST are especially enthusiastic when they come in discussing new possibilities for their app that one or the other has thought about over the weekend. It’s mind-blowing the growth they’ve shown, the critical thinking they’ve accomplished, and the sophistication of their project.” Adds Hutto: “It is also heartening to me personally to see high school students taking an interest in using developing technology in ways to help people and society. We are excited and hope to begin beta trials using actual therapy clients in the near future.”

JIM TUMLISON FIELD - Senior Night 2018 at Clinton High School will be remembered for several things, including 7 straight passes to open the game, John Riley Hinchey’s return, a Chris Toller fumble recovery, and best of all, a 48-0 win over the visiting Marshall Bobcats (1-8, 1-4). The Yellow Jackets clinched the No. 1 seed in the AHSAA playoffs, a home playoff game, and a share of the 3A-2 Conference title with the win. Clinton (9-0, 5-0) scored five touchdowns in the first quarter while limiting Marshall to -10 total yards. After forcing a three and out to open the game, the Jackets started at the Marshall 20 yard line. Head Coach Chris Dufrene called three consecutive passes for quarterback Weston Amos. Amos completed a 10 yard pass to Sky Davidson, and then found Ryley McDonald for 10 yards to finish off the touchdown drive. On Clinton’s second possession, Amos hit senior tight end Keaton Gresham for a first down pass before completing a 32 yard touchdown pass to Davidson. Up 14-0,

the Jacket defense sent the Bobcats backward, and a shanked punt put the Jackets in business at the Marshall 28 yard line. Senior Caleb Bowman picked up 24 yards on two carries before McDonald punched it in from the 4 yard line to make the score 21-0. On Marshall’s next possession, Bowman recovered a fumble at the 18 yard line and ran it in for a touchdown. Ethen Drake capped off the first quarter scoring with a 29 yard touchdown run to make it 35-0. Marshall did not fare much better in the second quarter, either. After failing to move the ball, the Bobcats punted back to Clinton, setting up the Jackets around midfield. Austin Drake and Ethen Drake traded carries on the drive. Ethen’s electrifying run set the Jackets up first and goal from the 3 yard line, and Austin finished the drive off with a touchdown of his own to make the score 41-0. The final score of the game came on Blaine Emberton’s 3 yard touchdown run, which capped off a 5 play, 48 yard drive that featured tough running by Hinchey, Logan Moudy, and Emberton. With the clock running through-

out the second half, Clinton was able to rotate several backups into the game for meaningful snaps. One such backup, Toller, a senior nose tackle, pounced on a fumbled snap by Brandon McCullom for his first career fumble recovery, causing the sidelines and the stands to erupt. Another senior, Jacob Hagerman, recorded his first career interception in the second half as well. In all, Clinton rolled up 284 yards on just 38 plays, with 212 comSee football on page 9

Ten players carried the football for the Yellow Jackets, led by Ethen Drake’s 57 yards on 2 carries. Moudy added 32 yards on 5 carries. Davidson caught two passes for 42 yards and a touchdown, while Gresham caught one pass for 20 yards, and McDonald caught one pass for 10 yards and a touchdown. Defensively, Clinton held Marshall under 100 total yards, and limited the Bobcats to -6 total yards at the half. Senior defensive end Reuben Dawson led the Jackets with 6 tackles, including a vicious sack in the second quarter. Ryan Jones and Davidson each had 5 tackles in the game. After the game, many seniors and their friends and families milled around the field at the stadium, capturing the final moments of Senior Night 2018. This senior class currently has a combined record of 294, and has captured 2 conference titles to go with three playoff appearances. But their season is far from over. Next week, Clinton travels to Mountain View in the season finale, before hosting a first round playoff game the following week. Jeff Hall and Mike Hawley will call the exciting action on KHPQ 92.1. Kickoff is set for 7 pm.

Fishing Report North Arkansas

White River

Mike Goodman of Overland Park, Kansas, went out Oct. 11 on Beaver Lake and, for his first fish and first-ever striper, hooked this 38-pounder. Photo provided by Mike Bailey.

Central Arkansas

Little Red River

(updated 10-242018) Lowell Myers of Sore Lip’em All Guide Service said the Little Red is experiencing low water conditions due to sporadic water release patterns based on power needs from the Greers Ferry Dam. This is creating good wading conditions but is challenging boating on most sections of the river. Sowbugs, midges, soft hackles and Wooly Buggers are working well for fly anglers. Pink and cotton candy Trout Magnets are recommended for spin fishing.

Greers Ferry Lake

As of Wednesday, the Army Corps of Engineers reports the lake’s elevation at 460.52 feet msl (normal conservation pool: 462.04 feet msl Oct. 1-April 30; 463.04 feet msl May 1-June 1; 462.54 feet msl June 1-Sept. 30). (updated 10-242018) Tommy Cauley of Fishfinder Guide Service (501-940-1318) said the water level at Greers Ferry Lake is at 460.52 feet msl, 1.52 feet below normal pool of 462.04 feet msl for this time of year. Some generation is going on

at night now. We are going through a transition at present with the cooler water temps and the rainfall, with more to come. The overall bite has been good most days with the best about to come as we get into fall full bloom. Crappie catching has been real good in the creek arms and main lake pole timber. Manmade brush piles are producing as well all over the lake on jig and minnows from 1230 feet. Walleye are scattered from 12-60 feet and also roaming under schooling fish for an easy meal; try crawlers and minnows dragged around on flats with a jighead or drop-shot rig for the best results. Catfish are coming in on all sorts of baits and techniques all over the main lake and rivers. Bream are on their last spawn of the year; try crawlers, crickets, small crankbaits and inline spinners from the bank out to 18 feet of water. Black bass are eating a variety of baits from up on the bank out to 60 feet, as well as roaming schoolers – pick your poison right now, there are lots of healthy fish being caught as they are feeding well on our large shad population. Hybrid and white

bass catching is good and will continue to be good on spoons, inline spinners, swimbaits, topwater baits and hair jigs in depths of 25-60 feet of water. A lot of 300 fish days are common now, just stay around the shad.

Arkansas River at Morrilton

(updated 10-242018) Charley’s Hidden Harbor at Oppelo (501-354-8080) said the high flows and bad weather have kept most anglers off the river. The migration of birds is great, with Grand pelicans, egrets, herons and puddle ducks is worth the cold and wet to see by boat. The Corps of Engineers has been doing a yeomen’s job on controlling the water. This Tuesday (Oct. 23) the flow has dropped to 102,000 cfs. The coves and backwater are full of shad. For bass fishing, use shallow-billed crankbaits. Also, use spinners slow-rolled. For white bass, do the same. Crappie will require jigs in chartreuse with a red head. For catfish, use whole shad. If you’re looking for stripers, go below Lock 9 and throw a wobble spoon with chartreuse and pork rind.

(updated 10-242018) Cotter Trout Dock (870-435-6525) says Bull Shoals Lake remains more than 4 feet below power pool so it's not surprising that generation flows have been low. During this past week, the water level on the White River in the north-central Arkansas Ozarks has remained steady with only small upticks in generation, mostly in the late afternoon. “Up until last Friday, we successfully dodged daytime rainfalls but braved a chilly, wet day and sent our anglers home with a great catch of rainbows. The lake level was not affected by the more than inch of rain we received. Rain or shine, our rainbows are chasing shrimp, especially when it's paired with a small piece of power bait. As we move into autumn and closer to the brown trout spawning season, change your bait color to orange or pink. It's hard to beat a good day of jig fishing; tie on an olive/black or an orange/brown Zig Jig or Marabou jig (1/8-ounce works best in this water level) and get ready to net some trout. Use those same colors for casting Wooly Boogers with your fly rods. Enjoy these cool mornings and sunny days on the river; stop by and share your latest fish story.”

Norfork Lake As of Wednesday, the Army Corps of Engineers reports the lake’s elevation at 551.33 feet msl (normal conservation pool: September-April 552.00 feet msl; April-September, 554.00 feet msl).

(updated 10-242018) Tom Reynolds of STR Outfitters said Norfork Lake's striper bite has been uneven this week. “Last weekend we were catching limits of stripers around School Bus Point and Reynolds Island. The big storm we had on Sunday and cold snap that followed blew all the stripers out of the area. I fished Monday there and did mark many fish and only caught catfish and white bass. I moved back to the state line area and hooked up with seven bites on the first trip. The next day we had fog and only caught one and missed a couple more.” Tom says he has been catching stripers there every day. “One trip, I took my clients up where we only caught and released bigger stripers. We hooked up with a fat 18-pound striper that gave the client a good fight and great picture. It was returned to fight again.” The stripers are moving down from Udall. The water up there is 61 degrees, whereas the state line area it’s 67 degrees. Tom said both he and son Sean fished that area Saturday and boated three quality stripers plus a few smaller ones. The cold snap has driven most of the shad out of the shallows but the upper part of the lake had plenty of bait, he said. As long as the shad stays in the area, the stripers will continue to feed and be catchable. Tom says the lake temperature continues to drop and will be in the 60s all over the lake by the end of this week. The crappie bite is very strong on the deep brush piles, and limits are being caught using a small spoon or minnows.

The bass bite is also very strong all over the lake. “Greg Weinmann atHand Cove Resort tells me there has been a fair topwater bite most days recently,” Tom says. “The best has been near and into the entrances of Big and Brushy creeks.” As the water continues to cool, the bait is schooling up and has moved shallower water in the mouths of the creeks. Check Big Creek if you're on the lower end of the lake and Robinson Point, Float and Panther Creeks in the mid-lake area. The Fouts area will begin holding fish along with areas from Red Bank to the Highway 160 bridge. Find the shad and you will find the stripers. They will be hungry and begin their fall feeding pattern.

Northwest Arkansas

Beaver Lake

As of Wednesday, the Army Corps of Engineers reports the lake’s elevation at 1,117.43 feet msl (normal conservation pool: 1,121.00 msl). (updated 10-242018) Bailey’s Beaver Lake Guide Service (479-366-8664) striper activity for this week rates as good. Beaver Lake stripers are in fall transition mode and are heading into their fall locations. They are on the move, and being mobile/flexible will be key to finding them. Mike Bailey says they are seeing some topwater action, so get those binoculars out and be on the lookout! For you diehard live baiters, fishing using weighted lines, balloons and downlines between about 20-40 feet deep during daylight hours should get you some stripers.
