Voters reject ratesetting authority
Veteran never forgot touching gesture By Jim Proehl Contributing writer
By Amy Moss Strong Bandon Western World
BANDON — Bandon voters rejected a measure Tuesday that would have returned authority to set utility rates to the city council. Measure 6-150 was being rejected by more than 60 percent of Bandon voters, with 513 in favor and 766 against the measure. Voters also elected Peter Braun, Madeline Seymour and incumbent Chris Powell to fill the three positions on the Bandon City Council to serve fourPeter Braun year terms. Incumbent Mike Claassen was not re-elected. As of 2 a.m., Wednesday, official results from the Coos Election County Department indicated that Braun received the most votes, with 776, followed by Madeline Madeline Seymour Seymour with 670 and incumbent Chris Powell with 666. Claassen received 572 votes. Mayor Mary Schamehorn, who was running unopposed, was re-elected to her sixth 2-year Chris Powell term. She received 811 votes, representing 88 percent. There were 110 write-in votes. Measure 6-150 was placed on the ballot by the city council and would have allowed the council limited authority to increase water, sewer and electric rates up to 5 percent per year. Bandon’s utility rates cannot be increased without a vote of the people, based on a charter amendment passed by voters in 1995, put on the ballot by resident and longtime businessman Francis Stadelman and the Committee for Fiscal Responsibility. “Nineteen years ago, we sent a message to our councilors that they needed to be more responsible,” said Stadelman Tuesday evening after learning the measure had failed. The measure originated with the Water Resource Committee, a standing committee appointed to plan for and advise the mayor, council and city manager on water quality, supply, resources and watershed protection issues. After several months of meetings, the committee concluded that the city cannot maintain its utilities without having control over rate increases. Then all seven members of the committee resigned their positions so they could advocate for Measure 6-150, citing Oregon election laws that prohibited them from doing so. They campaigned under the political action committee Secure Bandon’s Future. Proponents argued that without any rate increases, expenditures in the water, sewer and electric utilities will eventually exceed revenues. Opponents said the measure was too open-ended and took control away from the voters and into the hands of councilors. “If there’s a real, compelling need, then do a bond and put the chips on the table, it’s that simple,” Stadelman added. “Don’t do the things like fancy sidewalks or the turnaround at the (Face Rock Creamery). Those things are an absolute waste of the taxpayers’ money. If you’ve got problems, fix them first. The council needs to get its priorities straight.” While the ballot measure would not have increased utility rates, it would give the council authority to do so. “It’s a disappointment that the electorate didn’t understand the importance of this issue,” said Peter Hughes, former chairman of the Water Resource Committee. “It was really about giving authority back to the people who are

Second Lieutenant Pete Goodbrod served in Korea right after the conclusion of the Korean War.
BANDON — A doll may seem like an odd gift to give to a young man in his twenties. But Second Lieutenant Pete Goodbrod had learned enough about the culture of the country he was serving in to understand the significance of the gift and be honored by the sincerity of the gesture. The Goodbrods recently donated the Korean doll, the letter that accompanied it, and other memorabilia of Pete’s time in the service to the Bandon Historical
Society Museum. Those items are currently on special display and later will be incorporated into the section of the museum dedicated to the community’s veterans. Goodbrod admitted that he did not choose the military as a career and was not eager to go to Korea. He said, “I got that letter with Harry Truman’s name on it,” answered his country’s call and went where the service sent him. He took ROTC at Oregon State and

The journey began with a generator Fall 1999. Preppers everywhere were cautiously making plans for something called Y2K. Some computer geek somewhere opined that computer chips everywhere were going to freeze up at one second after midnight, December 31, 1999. The idea caught on and spawned a movement to prepare for life without computers or chip-driven electronics. I won’t go into detail but the concept made some sense. Enough so that several folks considered the possibility of the electrical grid collapsing and knocking out every computer and electrical component on the planet. As a result thousands purchased generators. I made a call to my buddy who happens to be an electrical engineer. My logic was that he was the best qualified person I knew who could answer my question. The conversation went something like this: Me: I just bought a generator and would like to know the best way to hook it into my house. Him: Why did you buy a generator, for Y2K? Me: Yup.

Letters Center looking to the future
Local hero living in Bandon
As many of you readers may know by now, since the close of the 2013-2014 fiscal year ending June 30, 2014, the Youth Center has been undergoing a reorganization and results-oriented restructuring. Some of the recent changes have involved making some difficult decisions, and all were given careful and heartfelt consideration by the current board of 9 directors (and growing). Our options were thoughtfully weighed, solely in the best interest of keeping the Youth Center open and totally focused on our primary mission, which is developing youth programs and outreach, while seeking grants and additional funding, into 2015-2016 and beyond. We attended the City Council meeting on Oct. 6, will be on the November school board agenda, and are working with a number of community members who are ready to volunteer their time or collaborate on a wide variety of program offerings, to begin on Jan. 12. Work parties will be announced soon to refurbish the building which is in need of roof repair or replacement, exterior door repair/replacement, necessary restroom repair, an update to the snack service area, landscaping, and exterior power wash and paint. We are already in collaboration with the local Go Native gardening program, we are in the process of receiving our police background checks, and we are seeking an Oregon Recorded Program status, similar to organizations like YMCA and Boys and Girls Clubs of America. While change can be difficult, we hope the community will continue to support our efforts to provide a quality education and structured recreation resource for Bandon’s young residents. We are pleased to announce that the annual Bite of Bandon, our culinary showcase fundraiser, will return on Saturday, March 7. We are seeking donations of quality items to be auctioned at this event. Please contact any board member if you can help. Also, keep an eye out for more exciting news and events as we move forward. With our deepest gratitude to all those who have supported the center in the past, continue to do so today, and are as committed as our board is to a successful future, we are: The Bandon Community Youth Center Board of Directors Angie Gonzales-Smith, chairwoman John Ohanesian, vice-chairman Kim Russell, recording secretary Karen Luther, treasurer Gina Allison, director Jeana Kennon, director Chris Schnieder, director Bill Stenberg, director Jim Wakeman, director

She enjoys painting a variety of subjects including landscapes, but has a particular fondness for birds and wildlife. Her work has earned numerous awards for excellence in domestic and international competition.

Donna has been painting and teaching her experimental poured watercolor technique for over 40 years and has been published in several art books, most recently in “Splash 13” (North Light Books).

Veteran was commissioned a Second Lieutenant at graduation. At a time in his life when he would rather have been playing baseball, his enlistment took him to Fort Belvoir, Virginia; Wolters Air Force Base, Texas; and Fort Slocum, New York, an Army training ground, “in sight of the Polo Grounds, Ebbets Field and Yankee Stadium.” Lieutenant Goodbrod was on his way to the way in Korea in 1953 when the cease-fire was signed. The mission changed from fighting to rebuilding. Personnel and labor officer was the assignment that opened up when Goodbrod landed at his base in Taegue, South Korea. Among his responsibilities was establishing a working relationship with the indigenous population. His liaison with the local population was a civilian, Young Min Lee. They worked together to recruit teams of local workers to complete projects on and off the base. “We worked hand-inhand,” said Goodbrod.
■ from Page A1
Through Goodbrod, the US Army found jobs for a population recovering from war. He said Young Min Lee made sure the right pay went into the right hands. When Lt. Goodbrod’s stay ended, Lee presented him with a gift on behalf of the local, civilian population: a ceremonially costumed doll about 18 inches tall. In a letter dated 3 April 1954, written on a typewriter with a badly aligned letter A, Young Min Lee spoke for the people Goodbrod at worked with. “I and other personnels who have worked under your guidance have been deeply impressed by your behaviour and kindness. Now, we want you to accept a doll which we dare to present you, though we are afraid we should make you disappoint for it. But, still we hope it pleases you and keeps you remember this people always. It may be a sign of our good friendship for the past days. “Good bye, Lt Goodbrod! I must close for now, and I pray that you have the happiest of

days always.” Goodbrod was aware that not every soldier who dealt with Korean civilians did so with respect and sensitivity. He valued his “great relations with the local people.” Perhaps Goodbrod’s experiences growing up prepared him to enter a new culture with an open mind and compassionate heart. Pete calls Union in Eastern Oregon his hometown but depression era economics sent his family on an Odyssey across the west. The family left Union when Goodbrod was in grade school. In a tiny Eastern Oregon town, he had to find strategies, as a boy, to carry groceries past a houseful of hillbilly ruffians as he walked home from the store. Living stops included Phoenix and Flagstaff in Arizona. He lived for a time in a neighborhood near the Los Angles Coliseum and attended a junior high school with an enrollment larger than the population of most of the Oregon towns he lived in. The family moved back to Oregon when Pete was in high school and he graduated from Mollala High School in an era when Mollala was a sports powerhouse. His athletic ability got him noticed. Baseball was his best
sport. At Oregon State, basketball coach Slats Gill picked Goodbrod up midseason and he played several games for the Beavers. However, Gill wouldn’t give him a scholarship unless he quit the baseball team. Goodbrod stuck with baseball. Goodbrod was captain of the 1952 Oregon State University baseball team that played in the 1952 College World Series, something the Beavers did not do again until 2005. Beaver baseball teammate Jim Scott’s father managed the Millers, a semi-pro baseball team that played in Bandon under the sponsorship of Moore Mill. His friend assured Goodbrod that if he would go to Bandon, he could get a job at Moore Mill and get paid to play baseball. He was right. In Bandon, Goodbrod met a neighbor girl, Joan DeCosta, and they were married in Bandon’s Holy Trinity Church in 1951. Joan accompanied Pete from base to base when his service was in the U.S. but returned to Bandon when he was shipped to Korea. They have been married 63 years. The Goodbrods kept the doll, a symbol of good relations between an American

supposed to be the responsible individuals governing the city. And it’s not good for Bandon, it will slowly deteriorate.” “This is not about water rates,” Hughes added. “This is about certain businesses maintaining their low utility rates because it’s good for them.” Schamehorn, who has been Bandon’s mayor for 10 years, said her concern now lies in how the city will deal with its deteriorating utilities. “I want to thank those voters who supported the ballot measure, which would have returned rate-setting authority to the council,” Schamehorn said. “I know in these tough economic times it is difficult to vote for something that allows people some control over any increases in their daily living expenses. I hope someday that the majority will understand the concept that good governance means that the people elect the council to make these kinds of decisions. But until that day comes, we will be forced to return to the voters with rate increases.”
Stairs visitors to access the beach. “The Service realizes this creates an inconvenience for visitors to Coquille Point and we are sorry to have to close the popular staircase,” said Roy Lowe, project leader for the Oregon Coast National Wildlife Refuge Complex, which manages Coquille Point. “However, the safety of our refuge visitors is a top priority, making this closure necessary,” Lowe added. “We have begun evaluating options for a long term fix through repairs or replacement.” In early August, USFWS contracted with a structural engineering firm, according to a press release. At their direction, movement indicators were created across all joints on the stairs and monitored weekly. Under the firm’s recommendation the USFWS also hired a survey company to install survey points from the beach to the parking lot on both sides of the stairs to monitor movement of the slope. It was determined that the staircase could remain open until the end of October, unless movement
■ from Page A1 of any joints in excess of one-fourth inch was detected, or a significant rain event was forecasted. “Now that the rainy season has begun, the stairs will be closed as planned for an indefinite period of time to ensure public safety, while a more detailed structural and geotechnical investigation is conducted and a repair or replacement plan is developed,” the release stated. The Coquille Point stairs have provided visitors with access to Bandon Beach and rocky intertidal areas at the base of Elephant Rock since their construction in 1998. Coquille Point is managed as part of Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge and is considered a spectacular place to observe seabirds and harbor seals. The point overlooks a series of coastal rocks of every shape and size that provide habitat for common murre, tufted puffin, western gull and Brandt's cormorant as well as harbor seal and rocky intertidal invertebrates. A paved trail winds over the headland and features new interpretive panels that share stories about the area’s wildlife.

HLMS students to sing with all-state choir
BANDON — Holly Sylvester, music specialist at Harbor Lights Middle School and Ocean Crest Elementary School, is feeling proud this week. Three of her HLMS choir students, Austin Martin, Kristina Allen and Rachelle Maxon, were chosen to attend the Oregon State Music Educators Association Conference and Concerts to sing with the all-state middle school choir. Sylvester believes this is the first time HLMS students have qualified for the honor of performing with the all-state choir. The students had to
submit audition tapes that met the required criteria. Those tapes were reviewed by judges and students were then selected. They will travel to Eugene in January and spend two days and one night with the all-state choral students, culminating in a gala concert at the Hult Center for the Performing Arts. Sylvester will chaperone the three students and assist throughout the event. Sylvester and the students are raising $1,200 for all the fees and associated expenses and accommodations for the trip. Bandon Rotary donated $600 and visit-
ing Port Orford Rotarian Dave Bassett donated $100 at Rotary’s lunch meeting last Friday. “These students are incredibly talented,” Sylvester said. “I’m so proud of them. Thank you to the Rotary Club members for their generous donations.” Both Bandon High School and HLMS choir students performed in a special South Coast Honor Choir concert Monday at Marshfield High School. For more information, contact Sylvester through the HLMS office at 541347-4415 or email her at hollys@bandon.k12.or.us.

High school to present Sweet Speeches Nov. 20 BANDON — Sweet Speeches, a night of creativity, laughter and performing arts, will be presented by the Bandon High School Speech team at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 20, at the Sprague Community Theater. This year's speech team includes 20 BHS students. Sweet Speeches is a highlight of the team’s calendar. “The team will compete at Ashland High School Nov. 14-15, so will be primed and ready to grace the stage of the Sprague Community Theater with incredible energy and just plain fun,” said Speech Coach Ellen Howard. “This will be an evening you won't want to miss!” At tournaments, the team members present their speeches in a classroom in front of a judge and several students from other schools. Sweet Speeches gives the team members the opportunity to work together as a team along with the experience of performing for a large audience, Howard explained. Each year, the seniors act as MC’s for the event. This year’s seniors are
Gabriel Castelli, Cheyenne Fogarty, Trenten Gagnon, Rose Garrett and Paige Smith. Juniors are Austin Carrero, Kayla Dugan, Weston Jennings, Autumn Moss-Strong, Kori Nemec, Darby Underdown, Max Underdown and Emily Wilson. Sophomores are Katy Taylor, David Vincent, Dustin Wilson, Eleanor Winston and Andy Yu. Freshmen are Ben Bean and Mikayla Mache. Many will be performing on the stage for the first time. Each and every speech team member will be performing on the stage, some for the very first time. Sweet Speeches begins with an introductory skit that includes all team members. Over the years, the skits have included museums, tornadoes, game shows, bus rides, speech tournaments, cruise ships, and whatever the group imagines, plans, and presents. “The beauty of the November, January and May Sweet Speeches performances is the visible progression of confidence and expertise as the
speakers develop throughout the year,” Howard said. “Each and every time the magic of performing is evident and exciting. This fundraiser, along with many generous donations, helps to pay for meals and motels for speech and debate tournaments.” There will be nine performances: After Dinner Speeches by Gabriel Castelli and Rose Garrett, H u m o r o u s Interpretations by Trenten Gagnon, Kayla Dugan and Eleanor Winston, a Dramatic Interpretation by Darby Underdown, Dual Interpretations by Weston Jennings and Max Underdown as well as Austin Carrero and Dustin Wilson, and Poetry by Cheyenne Fogarty. “We invite you to come and support the speech team, enjoy the awardwinning speeches and the homemade cookies included in the ticket price,” Howard said. Tickets, which are $10 for adults and $5 for students, are available from speech team members by calling BHS at 541-3474413 or at the door.

Tiger football team looks ahead to 2015 Bandon Western World
Bandon’s football season ended Friday with a loss to Gold Beach, but coach Silia Polamalu said the Tigers have a lot to be proud of and an exciting future. “The 2014 season was a good season for us in a lot of ways,” Polamalu said. “We played in some very competitive games in which we created opportunities to win. What makes this more considerable is the number of underclassmen we played compared to our opponents.” Bandon was particularly successful at replacing an offensive line of seniors from last season with a group that included five sophomores and freshmen who started games this year. “Those underclassmen who played this season gained valuable experience that will benefit us considerably over the next couple yeas,” Polamalu said. The players also embraced changes on the coaching staff and the team’s offense. “We adjusted well to several new coaches who brought a wealth of knowledge to the staff,” Polamalu said. “This meant that our guys had to adjust to new ways of teaching, new techniques and new terminology, and how to interact with new personalities.” Polamalu praised the upperclassmen who served as team leaders and mentors for the younger players, especially seniors Quentin Coomer, Trenten Gagnon and Aaron Willings who put in four full years for the team. “The seniors set the tone for how we played this year,” Polamalu said.
“Every Friday, we out hit and outworked our opponents. Unfortunately, we were also a little inconsistent and started a couple games slow.” The Tigers finished strong and “played hard to the final whistle every week.” “The upperclassmen were great about that and with all the playing time the juniors and sophomores saw, that should be picked up as the norm next year.” Bandon wasn’t able to play many junior varsity quarters, but when they did, the younger players performed well. And Polamalu noted that every player got enough time to earn a letter. “Looking ahead, this is exciting,” Polamalu said. “We get almost all of our linemen back and several skilled guys who started this season. They got a taste of what it is like and how close we were to being a really good team. “This should help us get those kids into the weightroom this offseason and out during the summer.” “We are sad to close the 2014 chapter of Bandon football, but we are excited that the next group is ready to start working toward next season already.” beat Gold Beach Bandon 38-12 in the season finale Friday, but the Tigers played even with the conference champion Panthers during the second half. Bandon’s touchdowns both were passes from Coomer to junior Tristian Davidson, who finished the season strong the final few games. Bandon ended the year 3-5 overall and 1-4 in the new Sunset Conference.

State Champion Sailor Hutton sprints to the finish line to win the state title on Saturday.
Bandon’s Hutton claims state title By John Gunther Bandon Western World
EUGENE — Bandon freshman Sailor Hutton began her high school cross country career with an impressive win streak that included a variety of high school races and Circle the Bay and Prefontaine Memorial Run road races. After a couple of losses in the past few weeks, Hutton finished her freshman season with her biggest win of all, taking the Class 3A-2A-1A state title at Lane Community College on Saturday. In the process, Hutton led Bandon’s girls to the third-place trophy, the fourth time the Tigers have earned that trophy in the past six seasons. Hutton trailed Marissa Dobry of St. Mary’s for about 2 miles after finishing second to Dobry in the district meet last week. “At districts, I wasn’t worried,” Hutton said, adding that her goal at that meet was just to make sure she qualified for the state meet. “Today was the run.” The Bandon freshman passed Dobry on a hill about a mile from the finish and pulled away. Hutton said she hit her planned splits perfectly at both the half mile and mile. She had planned to trail Dobry, but took control of the race when the St. Mary’s junior couldn’t hold her pace. “The opportunity was there and I took it,” said Hutton, who finished the 5,000-meter course in 18:36, beating Dobry by 33 seconds. Bandon’s team effort

Straining for the finish Bandon's Gabriel Castelli nears the finish during the state meet Saturday. He was the only senior who competed for either Bandon’s boys or girls in the meet. wasn’t good enough to keep up with Union, which won its third straight title, and St. Mary’s. Union scored 58 points, St. Mary’s 59 and Bandon 93. Enterprise also scored 93 points, but Bandon took the higher trophy because of a better finish by its sixth runner, Dani Cox. Aida Santoro joined Hutton on the podium, finishing fifth in 19:44. Sarah Cutler was 16th (20:43), Weston Jennings 46th (22:46), Shelby Tobiska 56th (23:14), Cox 60th (23:27) and Kori Nemec 79th (25:35). Santoro said she was disappointed with her race, in that she got passed
a couple of other runners near the finish. But she quickly added she was happy to help the team. Cutler, meanwhile, gushed praise for the group. “We did amazing,” she said, adding that the trophy was a result of hard work as a group. “I was so excited about the way we’ve bonded together.” And, she noted, all of Bandon’s runners are eligible to return next year. “Next year, we’re going to come back and do amazing,” Cutler said. Bandon’s boys weren’t able to duplicate the feat of the girls team and also bring home a trophy, fin-
ishing sixth. Catlin Gabel won the team title with 51 points, followed by Union (115), Riverdale (116), Chemawa (145), East Linn Christian (166) and the Tigers (204). Hunter Hutton, Sailor’s twin brother, was the top Bandon runner, finishing 23rd in 17:26. Zane Olive was 35th (17:52), Josh Snyder 54th (18:35), Seven Converse 55th (18:36), Ben Bean 84th (19:31), Joshua Bruce 88th (19:53) and Gabriel Castelli 92nd (20:08). Like the girls teams, Bandon’s boys are young. Castelli is a senior. Bean, Hutton and Bruce, Snyder all are freshmen and Olive is a sophomore.
