Tryon to tackle kudzu problem again by Leah Justice

The Town of Tryon is again discussing ways to eradicate kudzu. This time, the town wants to get the community involved. Tryon Town Council talked about the kudzu problem at its meeting Tuesday, March 15. Because most of the kudzu is located on private land, council members looked at ways to help property owners tackle the problem. Councilman Doug Arbogast, who requested the item be placed

on last week’s agenda, asked if the town can create an ordinance requiring property owners to remove kudzu. Town attorney Bailey Nager said an ordinance wouldn’t be appropriate unless kudzu is on structures. He said some owners couldn’t afford to take measures to eradicate kudzu on their property. Councilman Austin Chapman said many in the community are willing to take care of areas, with a recent effort being done

Serving Polk County and Upper Spartanburg and Greenville Counties

in Gillette Woods. Chapman said he’d like for the town to assist individual efforts, such as allowing property owners to burn the kudzu once it is taken down. Tryon Fire Chief Joey Davis said property owners can burn kudzu if they have a permit. He said his department would be glad to assist in any way, such as having a truck on location during burning.

Relay for Life gears up for April fundraiser at PCHS by Leah Justice

Area residents are invited to take part in Relay for Life, the largest fundraiser for the American Cancer Society, which will be held Friday, April 29 at the Polk County High School stadium. The event will begin with an opening ceremony at 6 p.m. Area cancer survivors are then invited to walk the first lap around the track.

Teams of individuals from local schools, churches, businesses and other organizations will participate in the event. Teams have at least one member on the track at all times, walking to represent the fight against cancer. Teams also have campsites around the field where they offer food, games and other activities as fundraisers. Entertainment is provided throughout

the evening. A ceremony will be held around 9 p.m. in which candles will be lit in memory of those who have lost the fight against cancer and in honor of those still fighting cancer. Relay for Life is a community event and is family-friendly. The event is alcohol and tobacco free and pets are prohibited. Organizers say they want to

encourage everyone to come out and enjoy the fun, food and fellowship while helping to raise money in the fight against cancer. Food vendors, inflatable slides for children and an animal petting area are among the activities that will be lined around the track. The event will conclude at 12:30 a.m. with a closing ceremony.

Hanukkah, or Chanukah, is a Jewish celebration that is also known as the Festival of Lights. Hanukkah is an eight-day celebration, most notably marked with the lighting of the menorah. The menorah is a candleholder that holds nine candles; the main eight candles and a “helper” candle called a shamash, which is used to light all eight candles. This tradition is derived from a story found in the Talmud about a man named Judas Maccabaeus, or Judah Maccabee. Around 170 B.C., the ruler Epiphanes tried to force the Greek gods upon the Jews.

eAnIng lor It!

Spring is one of the four seasons that we experience here on Earth; the others are summer, winter, and autumn. The beginning of spring is marked by the vernal equinox. An equinox is the only day of the year in which both day and night are the exact length of time. In the Northern Hemisphere, we experience the Vernal Equinox (or first day of Spring) around March 21, while they experience the first day of the fall season in the Southern Hemisphere. This occurrence is due to the fact that the sun is passing directly over the equator which happens only twice a year. Many cultures in history have not only marked the Vernal Equinox as the start of spring, but as a time for celebration. The original Earth Day celebration was on the Vernal Equinox, but it is now observed on April 22. Easter also coincides with the Vernal Equinox, since it is celebrated during the first full moon after the Equinox. If the full moon falls on a Sunday, it is celebrated that day. In Japan, it is a national holiday. Also on this day, many family gatherings are held, and gravesite visitations are made. Spring is also recognized for the new life it brings. When the cold winter weather dissipates, plants and animal life bloom, or “spring” forth, hence the name of the season. The season is often portrayed by bright colors, because new flowers are in full bloom. Many baby animals are born at this time. It is also known as a time when people clean their homes and discard them of clutter, a practice known as “spring cleaning.”

has been promoted to assistant vice-president and retail sales manager for First Citizens’ Landrum office, located at 144 Trade St. in Landrum. In this role, McCool will be responsible for maintaining and growing personal and business client relationships for the Landrum market. McCool has more than 10 years of banking experience. Prior to his promotion and subsequent relocation to the bank’s Landrum office, McCool was a relationship manager at the bank’s Hillcrest office in Spartanburg. Before joining First Citizens, he served as a manager of personal and business banking at RBC Bank. “Throughout Gerald’s banking career, he has established himself as an industry leader,”

He currently resides in Landrum. *** Steve and Ava Burney, owners of Medicap Pharmacy, at 80 Shuford Road, Columbus, have opened a new business, Foothills Ink and Toner, inside the pharmacy.

processing of up to 10 inkjet cartridges per hour. This gives the operator flexibility when it comes to processing individual inkjet cartridges. In addition to being able to refill many inkjet cartridges on site, Foothills Ink and Toner offers a wide selection

of 100-percent guaranteed remanufactured inkjet and toner cartridges by request. According to Steve Burney, one of the main founding principles behind Foothills Ink and Toner is to institute programs that will benefit local community and charity organizations.

Burney said, “One of our major initiatives is to involve community and charitable organizations in collecting cartridges from their members. We will refill them for a price that is up to 50 percent less than buying a new cartridge, and provide a cash rebate back

Market Place

to the organization for each cartridge filled. It’s a way for the individual to get a great deal on a product they are using anyway, while supporting the organizations that are important to them.” As a special introduction, Foothills Ink and Toner is offering to fill two inkjet cartridges for the price of one.

Saluda Tour of Homes to raise funds for city hall renovation The Historic Saluda Committee will sponsor a Tour of Homes on Saturday, June 4 from 1 – 5 p.m., as part of Saluda’s 130th Anniversary Celebration and as a fundraiser for the renovation of city hall. Historic Smith Hill has been chosen as the site of the tour. There will be six houses on the tour, all within walking distance of each other. Tickets will be available at city hall in Saluda. Parking is available at the First Baptist Church at the corner of Carolina and Henderson streets and shuttle vans will be available to take you to Smith Hill for the tour. In 1914, Dr. D. Lesesne

Smith of Spartanburg started the Infants’ and Children’s Sanitarium in Saluda as a place where “anxious parents could get skilled attention, careful diet and treatment for their suffering children during the hot summer months.” Dr. Smith’s wife owned two houses in Saluda so he had a base from which to operate. Dr. Smith also had under his care the Spartanburg Baby Hospital, established in the same year. From an original eight-room cottage, the sanitarium grew to 12 cottages, a central dining room, a diet kitchen, an assembly hall and examination and treatment rooms. Dr. Smith,

along with Dr. Frank Howard Richardson of New York and Black Mountain, returning from a meeting of the Southern Medical Association, decided that general practitioners needed to be trained in childcare. From the hospital in Spartanburg and the sanitarium in Saluda grew the idea of a Southern Pediatric Seminar, where from 1921 – 1959, it is estimated that between 3,000 - 4,000 doctors from all over the country and several foreign countries came to Smith Hill in Saluda to study the latest in pediatrics during two weeks every summer. When the seminar closed in 1959, the property was divided

among Dr. Smith’s four children. Some of the buildings were torn down, but the ones that remain are now permanent homes and all but one on the tour are still owned and now lived in by granddaughters and other relatives. The houses have all been restored in the last five years. The Historic Saluda Committee was formed in May 2010. Its primary focus is “to preserve Saluda’s past to protect its future.” The committee is working on an Oral History Project and assisting with fundraising for the restoration of city hall.

Wolverines trounce Cougars in conference opener 12-0 by Daniel Hecht

Polk County’s quest for a third straight conference championship began in earnest Friday night as the Wolverines paid a visit to Burnsville to take on the Cougars of Mountain Heritage. Twelve unanswered runs later, Coach Ty Stott’s squad had emphatically served notice to Western Highlands Conference foes that the road to the title this season will once again run through Columbus. Wolverine pitching continued its domination of opposing batters, holding the Cougars to just three hits on the evening. Roberto Taft took the mound to start the game and gave up just two hits in five innings, striking out four while walking three. Alec Philpott pitched the last two frames in relief, allowing just one more base hit and preserving the shutout. Polk’s stingy pitching staff has allowed no runs and a paltry four hits in the past 14 innings.

Polk catcher Rooster Ross contributed another solid game behind the plate, including gunning down the first Cougars base runner attempting to steal second. “Right there, they’re not going to try and steal any more bases,” said Stott, adding, “You throw them out, they’ll stop trying. That takes their aggressiveness away from them and really changes the rest of the game for their offense.” Another defensive high spot for the Wolverines (now 3-1 on the season) was the play of Joel Booker in center field. “Joel’s just very solid out there in center,” commented Stott. “He made about three plays and made them look routine. They weren’t routine, but he made them look that way.” A key to Polk’s success, claims Stott, is the ability to take the wind out of an opponent’s sails. “They’re trying to get some-

thing going, and they finally hit one hard, and we’ve got someone sitting there waiting on it when it gets there and it really shuts them down.” The Wolverine offense was led by Booker, who went 2 for 2 for the game, including a triple and a two run home run blast in the fifth. Booker reached base safely in all four trips to the plate. Rooster Ross delivered big in the third, lining Polk’s Rooster Ross anchored the defense in Polk’s 5-0 conference victory at Mountain Heritage Friday a base hit to left- (photo by Dan Hecht) center with bases loaded and two outs, scoring two well to cap a clutch pinch perand putting Polk up 4-0.

Lady Cards softball comes back to beat Chapman 4-3 by Joey Millwood

The last time Landrum softball played Chapman, it wasn’t pretty. The Lady Cardinals lost that matchup 14-2 to the 3A rivals down the road. “We told each other before the game to let the last game go,” Landrum junior pitcher Jordan Farmer said. They let it go and came away with a 4-3 victory on Thursday night, but there was drama until the last pitch. That was evident in the first inning. Farmer drew a walk to start the inning. Lauren Pitts followed with

a single. That’s when Bre Cuff hit a bomb over the left-centerfield fence to put the Lady Cardinals up early. Cuff is Farmer’s catcher and the two are best friends off the field. “I didn’t think it was going out,” Cuff said. Those in attendance had no doubt as the stands roared at the sound of the bat. Chapman rallied around pitcher K.K. Cheek, scoring three runs off of Farmer in the fifth inning. The Lady Panthers knocked on the door in the top of the seventh, but the Lady Cardinals’ defense

shut the door for Farmer. In the bottom half of the seventh, the Lady Cardinals wouldn’t be denied. Sydnie Brown started the inning with a walk. Taylor Jenkins followed with a single. With two strikes, Farmer hit the ball into left field to drive in the winning run for Landrum (4-3, 2-0). The Landrum defense faltered some, but the team’s ability to come back won the game. “We’re gonna make mistakes,” head coach Tucker Hamrick said, “but the whole defense came back. I’m so proud.”

New Alzheimer’s drug for diagnosis on horizon While heart disease remains the number one killer of Americans, there is less fear about having heart-related illness than there is about receiving a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. There are many reasons that heart disease may concern us, but most don’t dramatically raise our fear levels. Most of us know that heart disease, in many cases, is preventable and treatable. So going to the doctor for simple tests and related exams often gives us a head start on knowing about, preventing or treating heart disease. That’s not the case with Alzheimer’s disease – at least not yet. Alzheimer’s disease remains an incurable brain disease that cannot be 100 percent accurately diagnosed, particularly in its earlier stages, because its signs and symptoms often mask or mimic other physical or mental problems such as depression, small strokes or prescription drug reactions. Today, neurologists and physicians who treat dementias such as Alzheimer’s do a very good job of diagnosing the disease, but there is room for error and therefore, improvement. Confirmation that a person has Alzheimer’s disease can only be totally assured by analyzing samples of brain tissue of a patient, and that can only be done after the death of the patient, during an autopsy. However, that

may soon change. recently. Stated very simply, AlzheimIn January, an advisory comer’s disease is caused by plaque mittee to the Food and Drug adbuild-up in the brain, analogous to ministration reported on findings cholesterol building and blocking submitted by Avid Radiopharmavessels to the heart. ceuticals, makers of a dye that In the case of Alzheimer’s specifically highlights the plaques the plaque interferes with the caused by Alzheimer’s. brain’s ability to send signals and The advisory committee apinformation from one part of the proved the use of the dye in brain to another part of the brain conjunction with a PET scan to or to various nerves and muscles enable the scan to show the charthroughout the body. acteristic plaques of Alzheimer’s For instance, if the brain’s disease in the brain of a living storage area person. for memories R e m e m b e r, Senior of families and plaques are part LifeStyles of the criteria names of people is blocked by for having AlRon Kauffman plaque, it may zheimer’s — if have the infora person with mation you need and want, but memory problems does not have cannot access the path to get the plaques, that person does not information out. have Alzheimer’s.

The FDA does follow the advice and problem has been that there hasn’t recommendations of its advisory been a way to highlight plaque committees. specific to Alzheimer’s disease to Future use of these scans could absolutely confirm that diagnosis, be very valuable in diagnostic particularly in early stages – until situations when it’s not clear

whether a patient’s memory problems are a result of Alzheimer’s disease or caused by something else. If a scan shows no plaque, the problems are not caused by Alzheimer’s and could be from tiny strokes or other diseases. Unfortunately as of today, if a person has Alzheimer’s, there are few treatments that can slow the progressive nature of the disease and none that can reverse or cure it. There is a great deal of worldwide research under way looking for new drugs that are intended to reduce plaque and for treatment of the disease. With over 5 million Americans currently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, and almost 80 million baby boomers turning senior over the next 18 years, we can expect to see the number of Alzheimer’s cases skyrocket. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have a simple procedure to definitively diagnose such a frightening disease? Let’s hope that Avid’s new PET scan dye passes its final tests and is approved for diagnostic purposes by the FDA very soon. Ron Kauffman is a Geriatric Care Manager and Certified Senior Advisor.
