Gas line break Thursday in Columbus causes day care evacuation, traffic delays by Leah Justice
A natural gas line break along Hwy. 108 in Columbus yesterday caused children to be evacuated from a local day care and traffic to be rerouted for a couple of hours. A two-inch PSNC natural gas line was split around 8:45
a.m. yesterday while contractors were working on drainage. The N.C. Department of Transportation (DOT) has contracted work along Hwy. 108 between Blanton and Park Streets, including the construction of drainage, curb and guttering and a sidewalk.
Serving Polk County and Upper Spartanburg and Greenville Counties
Sub-contractors accidentally cut into the line, which spewed out natural gas. The Columbus Fire Department evacuated Country Bear Day School, which is nearby on Park Street. A Country Bear employee said about 28 (Continued on page 7)

Tryon’s Bryan Park gets grant for picnic table shelters The Town of Tryon and the Eastside Citizens Advisory Committee were notified recently that the Polk County Community Foundation Unrestricted Fund had awarded a grant for $3,000 for improvements at Bryan Park. The foundation designated the grant for the construction of two picnic table shade structures at the park. Dr. Warren Carson, chairman of the Eastside Citizens Advisory Committee, stated, “The Eastside Community Advisory Committee is extremely happy about the grant award. It will help us move forward with the development of this community park. The entire community is grateful for the continued support from the Town of Tryon and the Polk County Community Foundation.” The Eastside Citizens Advisory Committee originally requested development of a
neighborhood park in 2006. At their December 2006 meeting, the Tryon Board of Commissioners approved the building of the park on a Town-owned parcel at the intersection of West Livingston and Markham Streets. The park was built with funding from a 2007 Polk County Community Foundation Unrestricted Fund grant, the Town of Tryon and donations of materials by several local businesses. The Eastside Citizens Advisory Committee named the new park Bryan Park at its dedication ceremony on November 30, 2008. Bryan Park offers trees and shrubs, picnic tables, park benches and grills and serves families living in the area, the congregations of three churches located nearby and visitors to the Tryon Cemetery. Recently, the Eastside Citizens Advisory Committee developed a list of improvements

The town met last week and agreed to set a community meeting for interested residents to help plan the event. The town has until January to come up with fundraising in order to keep its fireworks show, whose cost is estimated at almost $10,000.
Columbus asks ‘no dog’ rule at Stearns be enforced
Columbus Town Council agreed last week to ask Polk County to enforce a “no dog” rule posted at Stearns Park. Council member Ernie Kan brought up the issue last week and council agreed that if the county does not wish to enforce the rule, town law enforcement officers should be allowed to enforce the rule. Stearns is owned by the county, but located in Columbus city limits.

children were taken by a Polk County School bus to Stearns. The day school does drills for such evacuations, but hasn’t had an actual evacuation in recent years. No injuries were reported from the incident. While repairs were being made, traffic was rerouted. Vehicles traveling east on Hwy. 108 were detoured to U.S. 74; many vehicles had to turn around prior to the gas line break site in order to gain access to U.S. 74. The break was capped quickly by workers, and natural gas crews arrived and repaired the leak shortly after 11 a.m. yesterday. The town has its own crews overseeing the construction in an attempt to avoid hitting utility lines. Another incident occurred on Wednesday during the construction as a result of heavy rains. Columbus Town Manager Jonathan Kanipe says a water leak occurred because the ground where work was done was saturated. Estimates originally called for the construction to be done

Polk candidates answer fifth Bulletin question The Bulletin recently asked Polk County commissioner candidates to answer five questions about local issues. Here are their answers to the fifth and final question. 5) The planning process for Polk County’s new Department of Social Services building, now in the early stages of construction, has been controversial. Do you think the county should change its process for planning and managing capital construction projects? If so, what changes would you like to see? Ray D. Gasperson I do not think that the county should change its process for planning and managing capital construction projects. The county manager, architect and BOC have done an excellent job of keeping the process of the building of our new human services building open to the public, transparent while keeping a watchful eye on the budget for the project. These discussions have been a part of more than 20 BOC’s agendas spanning over a year. Each step has been discussed in open session and agreed upon by at least a majority of the board, with many of the votes being unanimous. Unfortunately, the spirit of broad cooperation changed among some of the commissioners during this election season. At a recent BOC meeting, I referred to the “controversy’ as a “false controversy” created by two Commissioners as part of their election strategy. In recent days I have been speaking to many of the citizens of our county. Nearly all express their hope that we simply “move forward with the project and make the building large enough to serve future needs.” Margaret Johnson The controversy over the planning process for the new Department of Social Services
building was manufactured for the sole purpose of garnering political attention. The steps used in the process were much more thorough and open than the ones used in previous county construction projects, including the adult day health center. In reviewing the steps used in planning the DSS project, the North Carolina School of Government stated that the Polk County project plans had gone above and beyond the state planning requirements and were much more thorough than most counties would have attempted. The planning process was not the problem; the political maneuvering was. Tommy Melton The controversy for the Department of Social Services building began when the site preparation was not included in the overall bid package, but was bid separately. This was voted on by three commissioners to speed up the process. The bid came in at $75,000 over budget, and I suggested that the site preparation be a part of the overall bid, and asked that we rebid the project, which would make the prime contractor accountable. This was defeated by the three Democrat commissioners. They then had the architect cut costs in the new grading plan, and he achieved this by using a steeper entrance road; however, according to the county manager, this will limit future building plans at the site. I have felt, as I stated before, that the building is too large, with too many empty offices. The state of North Carolina recommends that the offices have a minimum square footage of 80 square feet. We are building offices that are 90-100 square feet. I feel we should build an (Continued on page 9)

Ted Owens When I was previously on the board of commissioners we established a long range plan for capital projects that we were following. For example: the renovating of the courthouse, finding a location for the senior center, etc. We also set aside funds to help with these projects in order to keep from placing a large burden on the taxpayer when the need occurred. We need to return to this kind of planning. Tom Pack I think that anytime you spend taxpayers’ money without proper planning you are going to get controversy. The prior board to the one we have now started the process and the current board chose to change this plan. So a plan is only good for two years while that board is in control.

Now that Geographical Information Systems (GIS) technology is being used to map the Polk County area, the Town of Tryon has had to correct its actual city limits. This process has had some financial consequences for some residents. One property recently was found to be outside town limits when it had been thought to be inside; another that was thought to be outside town limits was found to be inside. Town council met last week and approved a voluntary annexation of the John and Linda Douglas property, located on Jackson Street. The property was found to be outside town limits, although the couple had been paying inside city limit taxes for the past 37 years. The town approved the annexation following a public hearing last week. Town officials and the Douglas family discovered that it would be more financially feasible, given outside water and sewer rates, for the property to be inside city limits.
cause the parcel is fairly small. “Welcome back to Tryon,” Tryon Mayor Pro-tem Austin Chapman told the Douglases after the decision. Chapman ran the meeting last week in mayor Alan People’s absence. The Douglases had previously said they petitioned to be annexed because they thought for all these years they were Tryon residents and wished to continue to be Tryon residents. The town also briefly discussed another property, also located on Jackson Street, that was recently found to be inside city limits and hasn’t been paying city taxes. The majority of the Thelma Foster property was found to be inside city limits. Some council members expressed concern about the discovery, because of a state statute that allows the town to collect the last five years in back taxes. Council decided to table a decision on the property in order to find out if the town is allowed to give a break on taxes. Council will consider the issue next month.

In 2008, I was diagnosed with colon cancer. All I remember thinking was this wasn’t something my wife and I could ever have prepared for. A friend of my brother’s told me that one of the top colon cancer specialists in the country was right here in North Carolina. So I called him, and I can’t tell you how happy I was when he told me everything I needed for my treatment and recovery was right here at Mission – right here with my family and friends.

effective exercise programs. Most physical therapists are excited at the opportunity to work with a client in the prevention realm. By being proactive, a consultation with a physical therapist can help reveal issues such as lack of flexibility and muscle imbalances or help to address physical limitations unique to the individual like chronic illness or joint replacements that need special attention. The goal is to avoid the pitfalls of doing the wrong things for your body so that you can get results in improving cardiovascular health, strength, balance and weight control. Physical therapists are professional health care providers licensed by the state and have minimum educational requirements of a post baccalaureate degree. The majority of therapists graduate with a master's degree or a doctor of physical therapy (DPT) degree. Physical therapy is generally covered completely or in part by most insurance policies when provided by a physical therapist. North and South Carolina do not require you to have a doctor’s referral to receive therapy. Some insurance programs including Medicare do require a referral by your physician but you always have freedom of choice to seek care from the physical therapist of your choice. Life is too short and good health too important to be limited by pain or mobility problems or to not be able to do the things you want or need to be doing, therapists say. Seek the guidance of one of life’s best kept secrets, the physical therapist. Interested in learning more about physical therapy? On Monday, Nov. 1, at 5 p.m., Pro Physical Therapy in Columbus

Thorton W. (Whaley) Bradley Working for the past nine years, Beauford Arledge, 84, gathered his memories into a book that only he could write, “The Stories of Green River Cove.” With permission, the Bulletin is sharing excerpts from the book with our readers. If you would like to purchase a copy of “Stories of Green River Cove,” call Arledge’s daughter, Susan Howell, at 828-894-3724. Whaley was never married. He told people he never had time. He must have had a busy life. Whaley had lots of tales he would tell, just for fun of it and a good laugh. People knew him and would stop by when passing his house. The Bradleys had a field on Raccoon Mountain. Whaley told about John and him going there about Christmas time. He told John to look at the red birds in the peach tree, but after getting closer, they saw that those birds were ripe peaches. At one time, Whaley

Whaley learned shape notes He told of plowing new ground with a yoke of steer owned by his and the rudiments of music in his brother John. The old wooden plow younger days, sitting on logs and was hung under a stump, and when listening to music teachers. He he pulled it, out came a yellow mentioned that Show Walter was jacket’s nest. The jackets covered one of his teachers, and he would the steers. They left with the old practice while plowing in the field, wooden plow in the air, and it was singing the notes.

at Mountain Valley Church in the Cove. For a while he held singings twice a week –Sunday evening and Wednesday night. I attended those singings. At one time there would be eighteen or twenty people in his singing class. We learned a lot about music from his teaching. He had his stick that he used to point out things on the chalk board. He used it to beat time, while Effie Jackson played the organ. If she failed to show up, then he used his tuning fork. He would strike the corner of the pulpit with it, and then put it up to his ear. Once he had the right pitch, he was ready to go. Whaley used his stick to start with an up beat or maybe a down beat. He would pat with his foot and we were on our way. He didn’t have a great voice, but after a thump or two all he had to do was just keep the time. It was a time that people in the Cove could get together, hear singing, and learn the news of the goings on in the Cove.

Letter to the Editor
So we appreciate everyone coming to the shelter for the Adopta-Thon, playing, adopting and thinking about us. The humans tell us that we are really lucky to be here in this great community, because we will find a home--eventually. So if you need a best friend, unconditional lover, or maybe a babe magnet, come visit any time. There are still quite a lot of us here, and sure to be someone you will fall in love with. The shelter staff also takes your requests to look for the match of your dreams. Be sure to come for our Open House on November 6th. Santa will be taking pictures with pets— what fun! Gratitude again for the Howling Success on Saturday, and for the chance you give us every day with your support! – Foothills Humane Society animals, submitted by Dot Moyer, Operations Director

Though I often speak of the great lady vets I deal with, Tommy at Landrum and Ian at Bonnie Brae, are always there for me involved in many stories that have not been told. And lastly, the little girl that I am most asked about, Tiny the emaciated Boxer who had a bone blockage in her intestines. Tiny weighed in at 33 pounds when she was first brought into Landrum vet. I make it my business to visit her nearly every day. She has been eating everything in sight and is so full of love she makes every emotion inside of me burst. She topped 40 pounds one week after her operation and her latest weighin put her at 48 pounds. She is just about perfect right now, perhaps around 55 pounds would be the optimum for her. She is ready for a new forever home, please see me or Landrum vet if you have any interest. I am personally aware of the level of

MOSL-039042
To the Editor: Every election year, the politicians and the press tell us that this election is “crucial.” Well, they are correct; the 2000 and 2004 elections were important because George W. Bush was elected President...and the 2008 election was equally important because it resulted in the election of Barack Obama, a President with an entirely different agenda. However, what of the so called “off year” elections? They were equally important because the 2002 elections resulted in a GOP majority in the Congress and the 2006 elections resulted in the Democrats taking over the majority in both Houses. Unfortunately, Americans have a bad habit of not voting in these non-Presidential elections. Why should they study the issues

Raymond D. Vickery graduated from the Army ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) Leader Development and Assessment Course, also known as “Operation Warrior Forge,” at Fort Lewis, Tacoma, Wash. The 32 days of training provide professional training and evaluation for all cadets in the aspects of military life, administration and logistical support. Although continued military training and leadership development is included in the curriculum, the primary focus of the course is to develop and evaluate each cadet’s officer potential as a leader by exercising the cadet’s intelligence, common sense, ingenuity and physical stamina. The cadet command assesses each cadet’s performance and progress in officer traits, qualities and professionalism while attending the course. Cadets in their junior and senior year of college must complete the leadership development course. Upon successful completion of the course, the ROTC program, and graduation from college, cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army, National Guard, or Reserve. Cadet Vikery is a student at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He is the son of Timothy F. Vickery of Tryon. Vickery is a 2007 graduate of Oak Ridge Military Academy, N.C. – article submitted

Letter to the Editor
Heath Shuler just can’t help himself To the Editor: I read with interest Bill Holcomb’s letter regarding the Q&A between Congressman Shuler and Jeff Miller on WLOS. Amazingly enough, someone actually believed Heath Shuler when he claimed to have read the entire 2500 pages of the Health care bill in twelve hours. For argument’s sake, let’s look at the math. If Shuler actually read 2500 pages in twelve hours, it would mean that he read more than 208 pages per hour or 3.5 pages every minute for twelve straight hours. That does not allow for
any time whatsoever for doing any of the things that one must do in a twelve hour period of time. He would have to be the fastest reader on record, not to mention being able to fully comprehend such a convoluted and complex document. I find that exceedingly hard to believe. I have read several parts of the bill and it is not something you can skim and understand. Some of the greatest legal minds in the country are still struggling with trying to figure it out. I have a question for Mr. Shuler. If he thinks that the Health care bill was such a bad idea that he voted against it, why did he vote “No” on a proposal to prohibit hiring new IRS agents to enforce the Health care law to the tune of
$15 billion? That makes both of his votes quite disingenuous. It looks like Heath Shuler was not honest with us, which has become a real pattern with him. During the same Q&A, Congressman Shuler said, “Talking about business groups, I mean, I’m endorsed by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Federation of Independent Business.” The problem is, that was a lie. Here is the response that was released by the NFIB. “I can’t speak on behalf of the U.S. Chamber, but I can speak for NFIB, and NFIB’s political action committee, the NFIB SAFE (Save America’s Free Enterprise) Trust, has not endorsed Heath Shuler for Congress.” Heath Shuler evidently has

no problem looking into the camera and lying. We know for an absolute fact that his vicious attacks on Jeff Miller are 100 percent lies and he lies about his own involvements in business dealings, such as the TVA scandal and his own accomplishments by claiming to have read the entire Healthcare bill. There was no need to lie about that. A reasonable person would know that reading such a document in such a short period of time would be a superhuman endeavor. That is why everyone was so angry when it was slammed through the House in such a short period of time. So why lie about it? I guess Health Shuler just can’t help himself. Old habits are hard to break. – Cheryl Every

Local autism parent support group picks up steam with educational programming Formed last May, the Polk County/Foothills Autism Parent Support Group is growing fast. The group’s purpose is to build a place where people can access resources, participate in educational forums, and receive support in dealing with the diverse issues that arise when raising kids on the autism spectrum. The group has compiled a list of mental health resources, with the idea being that it should be open to everyone for ongoing updates. Attendees of the meetings decided to have the group officially become a chapter of the Autism Society of N.C. Backing by the Autism Society of N.C. gives the community more opportunities to provide an educational focus and to seek support through professional parent advocates of the national and local organization. Reaching out to Polk County,
Hendersonville, Rutherfordton, Forest City and everywhere in between, the local support group also encourages families from Landrum and upstate South Carolina to attend. Co-founder Tracey Daniels explains, “In coming up with our official name, we brainstormed the best title to accurately represent our intended outreach. Landrum and upstate S.C. families are also close to us in proximity and support efforts. Many of our families attending the meetings cross state lines (both ways) to get appropriate service due to health insurance issues, recommended doctors/therapist, and logistics of home, school and work. We need to collect and gather information on a regional level. We felt strongly that ‘Polk County/Foothills Area Chapter’ would be the best fit.” The group plans to host a lecture/speaker at each monthly
meeting. The topics will be diverse and relevant to all aspects of living with autism. The meetings are held the first Tuesday of the month at the Polk County Public Library (Columbus Library) at 6 p.m. The atmosphere is friendly and casual. Daniels further explains, “We have been thrilled with the number of parents that have joined us since May. Some parents come every month. Some attended randomly or depending on the program topic. The important message we want to get out to the community of parents, educators and service providers is that we are here for support. Representatives from our local schools have attended the programming, too. It is a wonderful atmosphere of friendship, pro-active learning and problem solving.” Those in attendance of the November 2 meeting will watch
a DVD called “Autism Alternatives” by Dr. James Biddle of Asheville Integrative Medicine regarding combining medical approaches with complimentary approaches to treating autism (micronutrients, food allergies, toxins, etc.). This DVD features information from a “DAN” doctor (Defeat Autism Now). A discussion of the material and networking opportunity will follow. For the December 7 meeting, the Polk County/Foothills Area Parent Support Group will host a special event with guest speaker Jean Alvarez. A “Workshop for Siblings” will be open to all parents and all siblings of those who are on the autistic spectrum. For more information about the autism parent support group, contact Tracey Daniels at tracey@ mmpublicity.com. Put “support group” in the subject line. – article submitted

based on absurd ideologies has drained the financial resources of the country and shifted that wealth into the hands of the privileged few and foreign governments. The low tax rates in the Middle East are there because the US subsidizes those governments (and terrorists groups) through the money US citizens pay for imported oil. We also pay for stability in the region through our military expenditures and lost lives. The trade imbalance that we have with China funds their rapid build-out of an industrial economy and infrastructure shifting wealth from the American middle class to China’s middle class. Our economic wizards see great opportunities in China if (and that’s a big if) they ever become a consuming nation. In the meantime, our middle class continues to disappear mostly because of 30 years of bad policy and leadership. The reality check is that the government will have to spend more money on rebuilding our economic infrastructure, not less. There are opportunities to reduce government spending in some areas but not enough to offset the tremendous need we now have. The middle class has already paid the price for “Free Trade”. No doubt they will be soaked again by the power brokers and elite if our economic infrastructure is ever updated to bring us into the 21st century. Summation Given the economic and governance crises that we face, it would appear that we have not seen the worst. Democracy and our economic system do have a tendency to upright themselves over time but the agony and damage caused to the backbone (the middle class) could be tragic. If there is hope, it is in the will of the people to not tolerate the selling off of America anymore. We need to be wiser, smarter, pragmatic and single-purposed in protecting our short-term and long-term interests as a Nation. And keep in mind -- there are no special interest groups looking out for you. Rodney Gibson is the former Mayor of Saluda.

Tryon Hounds Annual Fall Hunter Pace results Sunday, October 10, was a beautiful day for the Tryon Hounds Annual Fall Hunter Pace in The Western North Carolina Hunter Pace Series. The course began at Long Shadows, the farm of Mike and Helen Atkins who offered the farm for this event. The expansive fields offered room for parking handled by Richard Pierce, Nelson Minnick and a teenage volunteer, Jesse Allison. Becky Barnes welcomed and directed each trailer as they arrived. Rider entries were taken by Anne Pierce as secretary. There were 131 participants who all seemed to arrive anxious to ride during the cool morning temperatures. Down at the start line Joey Cabaniss joked with the riders and Dean McKinney was prepared as spotter at the finish line. The course took riders over Long Shadow Farm into Slater’s Farm and on to Bob Pelio’s Farm and jump field. The check point was held on AY Brown’s farm under the shade of a
large oak tree overlooking a pond. Skip Leck and Bob Richardson checked in riders on their three minute rest. The riders said they welcomed the cool apple juice and water Leck and Richardson offered. Riders were then directed to “Marlboro Country,” another Slater property offering an opportunity to gallop, leading to the jump field of John and Jane Gallagher. The route home was by way of “Thanksgiving Hill” and on to the “airstrip,” which provided another galloping opportunity. NPA Trails led riders back over the Iron Bridge to Sandpit Road and home. A lunch of grilled hamburgers and hotdogs, plus slaw, cookies and drinks were waiting. Kerry Holmberg and Joe Picone kept the pace in flipping the grilled items just ahead of the hungry riders. There were plenty of helpers with Becky Barnes, Ivey and Jim Sumrell, Anita Williamson and Richard Price seeing that all were served. This ten mile course was made possible by a crew that cleared and

The StereoFidelics perform at the Tryon Movie Theater Nov. 7 The indie power duo The StereoFidelics will appear at the Tryon Movie Theater Sunday, November 7, at 7 p.m., in a benefit concert for the Upstairs Artspace. This will be the first major Tryon show by Chris Padgett and Melissa McGinley, who moved to Tryon two years ago and bought a house near Tryon Elementary. The concert is a way to give a welcome home to one of the hardest working bands on tour today – they’ve performed 500 shows on the road in the last three years. Ninety percent of what they perform is original StereoFidelics material. Ten percent is covers, which rotate quickly through their sets. Everything they do is completely live and nothing is recorded. There are no back up tracks at all. Padgett and McGinley met as students at Indiana University, internationally renowned for its outstanding music department, where McGinley was majoring in classi-
day tfns
cal violin. Padgett was playing in a band chosen to record a “Best of Bloomington” compilation CD. During the recording session for that CD, Padgett met McGinley and they began a personal, though not yet musical, relationship. They graduated from Indiana in 2005, moved to Asheville, and were married in 2006. One of the bands McGinley played in was quite successful and demanded most of her creative energy so that, interestingly, she and Padgett didn’t start making music together until after they were married. The StereoFidelics finally gave their first live show in November 2006 and now play between 150 and 200 shows a year throughout the United States. McGinley grew up in Wheeling, W.V., and started playing violin at the age of four. She was an accomplished classical and bluegrass musician as a child and, from her dad, inherited a positive

out of Asheville. McGinley and Padgett consciously chose Tryon for their home because they were looking for a small town to raise a future family. “It’s safe, quiet, pretty and has nice people,” said Padgett. “It’s also close to Asheville and the markets we like to play in. Charlotte. Tennessee. The Upstate.” Their “other job,” when they’re home, is remodeling their new house in Tryon. And they say they enjoy hiking around the foothills. As for the band’s goals, Padgett said they hope to be playing for increasingly larger audiences, which would be more like 500-600 people a night. “But right now,” he said, “we’re having fun. It’s humbling to thinking we can eke out a living at this. It’s been great, especially in this economy, to be able to give people music, to make their lives a little better than they might be otherwise.” – article submitted

Indianapolis was home for Padgett, where he grew up listening to “everything popular” to include – to name just a few – Leo Kotke, Frank Zappa, Talking Heads, Charlie Parker, Charlie Pride, Igor Stravinsky and many others. He majored in public affairs and environmental science at Indiana University, where he also played in local bands and interned with the Indiana State Fish and Wildlife Division. In addition to giving stage performances night after night, Padgett and McGinley do everything themselves. They serve as their own booking agent, their own manager, their own marketers, their own web designers and their own roadies. They also started their own record company – Rubberneck Records,

Douglas performs in Saluda musicians, Kyle Douglas, a singer/songwriter born and raised in rural upstate N.Y., moved to Saluda on a “wing and a prayer,” with his instruments, songs and musical passion in tow. When he is not immersed in his music, he can be found at Evening Shade Pottery in Saluda where his mother, Eva McCray, makes face jugs and functional pottery. Douglas says he was inspired at first by “‘Grandpa’s dances’ on Friday and Saturdays at the local VFW or Moose club where they played bluegrass and country and western. Everyone worked very hard all the time and those dances were a chance to get dressed up nice, relax with drink and dance, and let loose with friends and family.” Later in life, a moment in his father’s living room set off a furious desire to learn music and perform. “It was a Sunday afternoon and my father and a friend pulled out their guitars and made the most incredible music… right there in that little living room! They sang harmonies and played for hours… I just had to know how to do that,” reminisces Douglas.
Kyle Douglas
There is a great tradition in American music of adventure, innovation, and overcoming hardships. It is a common thread through all genres and Douglas is tuned into that tradition. Armed with a guitar, or sometimes his Grandpa’s bass fiddle, Douglas continues that great American music tradition. Douglas will be playing at The Wine Cellar at The Saluda Inn Saturday, October 30 at 8 p.m. The Wine Cellar is located at 229 Greenville Street in Saluda.

The Truth! this letter is in response to a letter to the editor that Pamela tessnear wrote and was published on october 27, 2010. tessnear, like many others who write articles in the paper, seem to lack and leave out the whole truth. tessnear is correct in stating that the inmate was not able to attend his mother's funeral. What tessnear does not state are all the facts that led up to the day of the funeral and what services the Sheriff's Office did provide to the inmate. on october 11, 2010, the inmate was transported to Craven Correctional on a safekeeping order. once the inmate arrived and the deputies were 30 miles from Craven Correctional on their way back, a call was received at the Sheriff's Office that the mother of the inmate in custody was ill. the sheriff's office administration told the two transport deputies to return to Craven Correctional immediately and bring the inmate back to the Sheriff's Office so he could see his mother. a few days later after the inmate was returned to the sheriff's Office Jail, he was allowed to go visit his mother twice at Hospice. Both of those visits, he was given 30 minutes to visit with his mother. After these visits, the Sheriff's Office was notified that the inmate's mother was passing away. At this point, there was a court order in place by a Judge that stated the inmate could have no contact with the victim or the immediate family involved in the case of the inmate. at this point, the Sheriff's Office could not take the inmate to the funeral of his mother because the court order was in place and the Sheriff's Office could not violate the court order. Because of the court order, the inmate was allowed to visit privately with his mother. this visitation with his mother did involve his own children being present. so the inmate was allowed to grieve with his children. as sheriff of Polk County, i feel that everything was done to the letter and the inmate had several visits with his mother and stayed within the means of the Court order. i have tried not to respond to any of the letters written by individuals in the paper, but i am tired of individuals only telling half the story and not writing what truly happens within the Sheriff's Office. This Office is always open to the public, but I cannot discuss any on-going internal investigations.
sincerely, donald G. Hill

the last time the Landrum football team won the region championship was in 2005, a team that included Mark Cann and garrison McDowell. that was Landrum’s first region championship since the early 1980’s.
the Cardinals don’t want to wait that long again. In fact, they’re hoping to end that wait tonight just five years after the 2005 run. to return to gridiron glory, the Cardinal defense will have to slowdown the Christ Church spread offense. “they throw the ball well and their quarterback and runningback run the ball well,” Landrum coach russell Ma(Continued on page 49)

Polk Wolverines vying for inside track to title Winner Friday will be in driver’s seat for crown, playoff seed by Joey Millwood
there won’t be a NasCar race or anything at the “Little Big House” on Friday night when owen visits Columbus, but the polk football team will be looking to move to the inside of the track en route to a Western Highlands Conference championship. “We always tell our players that our next game is the most important game they will ever play,” head coach Bruce ollis said. “of course, there is added significance because we are tied for the conference lead and the winner of this game will have the inside track on the conference championship and the No. 1 2a seed from the (Western Highlands Conference) in the state playoffs.” In other words, the race is on and the “Little Big House” will be rocking on senior Night.

Foothills Music Club October meeting by Elizabeth Gardner
The first meeting of the Foothills Music Club for the 2010-11 season was held on the afternoon of October 14 at the home of Joseph and Kathleen Erwin. Following a brief business meeting, a musical program, titled “Opus Optional,” was presented by six club members and guest musicians. Several items of interest were announced. First, Elaine Jenkins, chair of the scholarships committee, said that she will be working with other club members during the next few months to organize the auditions for high school students for FMC Scholarships. The date of auditions and instructions for applicants will be announced later. Fran Creasy, FMC president, reported that there are a few openings for new active members of the club. All members are serious musicians who want the challenge of performing and who will work to raise funds for scholarships for deserving young musicians in our community. Anyone interested in becoming a member of the club should contact Fran at 828-859-0208. Krysti Hamlin then opened
the musical presentations with a performance of Edvard Grieg’s “Notturno, opus 54, no. 4.” The host, Joseph Erwin, then played three piano pieces. Before his performance he reminisced that after three years of post-graduate work at the Julliard School, the school got “sick of” his being a student, so they put him on the faculty. He pointed out that there are many ways to listen to music and gave a few examples of how composers evoke different emotions and feelings. Erwin then played two “Intermezzi” by Johannes Brahms, followed by Claude Debussy’s “La Cathedrale Rngloutie,” a musical evocation of a cathedral that had been struck by an earthquake. At points in his performance, Erwin interjected comments on what was happening in the music…not everyone who plays the piano can talk and play at the same time. Two guest musicians, Inez Redman, violin, and Donna Robertson, piano, then joined FMC member Kathleen Foster, cello, in a performance of the “Sonata in B minor” by the early 18th-century composer Jean-Baptiste Loeillet de Gant. When asked how the ensemble
got its name, the “Andoin Trio,” Inez explained that they took two letters from the first name of each of the three members. Foster is not a regular member of the trio, but has been substituting in several recent performances. Beth Child, piano, closed the program with Frederic Chopin’s “Barcarole in F#, opus 60.” Child played this piece in a concert at the Twichell Auditorium at Converse College in Spartanburg on Thursday, October 28. The concert was part of the centennial celebration of Converse’s Petrie School of Music. Child noted that she had been allotted a maximum of eight minutes to play, and that this Barcarole is one of her favorite pieces because it runs the whole emotional gamut in less than this amount of time, which is rare. The next meeting of the Foothills Music Club will include a public concert, which will be part of the club’s celebration of the 125th anniversary of the founding of the Town of Tryon. The concert will take place at Isothermal Community College in Columbus on November 11 at 3 p.m. – article submitted
