PCTA’s van doors open to all Polk residents by Samantha Hurst

Polk County Transportation Authority (PCTA) vans traveled 125,700 miles during the first six months of this budget year. That amounts to 4,623 trips or 20,950 miles a month. “We’re busier now than we’ve ever been because we’ve got a lot more people calling us with everything that has happened with the economy,” said PCTA Director Jewell Carswell. PCTA was established in the early 1980s via the Older Americans Act, which provided a block grant for senior centers, home care and transportation. Things have changed dramatically for the authority since then. Carswell said PCTA makes itself available to the entire community now and wants more people to be aware of the services the (Continued on page 3)

White Oak development slowly paying debt to Polk County of more than $160k Recent payments made for water line, taxes by Leah Justice

White Oak Partners development company is slowly chipping away at its debt to Polk County for water line construction costs and back taxes. Currently that debt stands at $162,245. The developers made a $5,000

payment toward the water line debt and a $10,000 payment toward 2010 taxes last Friday, March 25. Polk County sued White Oak last July for not completing payment for a water line the county ran to the development, located in Green Creek. In September 2010, Polk gave White Oak until January 2011 to answer the lawsuit,

authority provides. “Some people have the perception that [PCTA is] for poor people but some of the poor also think they can’t afford it. Then we have a lot of people who think the service is only for seniors,” Carswell said. “There are a lot of misconceptions out there.” The authority works to maximize the efficiency of every trip made in county or out of county, said administrative assistant Tracy Waters. To do so they require a two-day notice for anyone needing an in-county trip and a five-day notice for anything outside Polk County. “The reason for that is so we can consolidate and be as cost effective as we can be,” Waters said. Waters said this means passengers on occasion must wait for others to finish doctor’s visits or be prepared to leave earlier in order to ride along to other pas-

senger’s appointments, especially in advance. PCTA also transports kids when these take place out of the to daycare, drives people seekcounty.

feared having to move into a nursing home, forcing her to leave the “little country home” she loves. Luckily, she said, she was quickly directed to PCTA. “If it were not for them, I couldn’t go shopping, I couldn’t go anywhere,” Richardson said. “In my book they are on top – they really make my life possible here and here is where I’m happy.” Richardson looks to PCTA for grocery shopping, going to the bank and simply getting out and about to enjoy a day around Columbus. “I see other people on the bus and they can still walk but they don’t have the means to get a car to go do laundry, to go grocery shopping, to go to the bank,” Richardson said. “They too rely on the vans.

Lynn Cowell

‘Radical Love’ conference set for April 2 Mill Spring First Baptist Church will host a “Radical Love” conference for teenage girls on Saturday, April 2. Guest speaker Lynn Cowell, of Proverbs 31ministry, talks to today’s teens, who are under pressure on all sides, from sex and drugs at school to performance and maturity at home. With topics such as “What are they to say ‘yes’ to?” and “When do they say ‘No?’,” the “Radical Love” conference is designed to help teens discover God’s best for them and have fun doing it. From the power of love that can lead to a pure life, to learning what a true knight in shining armor looks like, Cowell will speak to the hearts and minds of teen girls as they listen. According to organizers, Cowell will help her audience know that Jesus replaces loneliness with His acceptance and approval right where they are today. Mill Spring First Baptist church will hold the “Radical Love” conference April 2 from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. Lunch will be served. There will be music, games and door prizes. This is a free event. If you have any questions call 828-894-2920. – article submitted

75-year-old Landrum man gets 57 months for selling drugs Wife receives probation for concealing evidence by Leah Justice

A 75-year-old Landrum man received a sentence of almost five years last week for selling prescription drugs. John Samuel Duncan was sentenced in federal court on Wednesday, March 23 to 57 months in prison for conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, according to United States Attorney Bill Nettles. Duncan was sentenced during a hearing held in Anderson, S.C. by Senior United States District Judge G. Ross Anderson Jr.

Duncan also consented to a monetary judgment of $113,650, which represents the proceeds of his illegal activity. According to evidence presented at the change of plea hearing, Duncan sold multiple doses of prescription painkillers and other controlled substances to addicts in Upstate South Carolina, Nettles’ release said. On July 1, 2009, Greenville sheriff’s deputies searched Duncan’s home and discovered large quantities of Lortab, Xanax and methadone pills. Duncan had purchased these pills from individuals with valid prescriptions and resold the pills to addicts in Upstate South Carolina, according to the release.

The investigation revealed that Duncan received about 800 Lortabs per month. He purchased the pills for $5 each and sold them for $6.50 each. He also received approximately 300 Xanax per month, which he also sold for $6.50 each. Duncan purchased 400-500 methadone pills per month, paying $4 per pill, and sold them for $5 each, according to the evidence. Duncan serviced approximately 30 customers per day, seven days a week, at his home in Landrum, according to the release. Duncan and his wife, Wanda Sue Duncan, 69, were arrested and charged in September 2010 with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute oxycodone, methadone and morphine, which

are schedule II controlled substances, and hydrocodone, a schedule III controlled substance. The couple was also charged last year with possession with intent to distribute oxycodone, methadone, morphine and hydrocodone. Wanda Sue Duncan was also charged at the time with misprision of a felony. Wanda Sue Duncan pled guilty to concealing the evidence and was sentenced to three years of probation. The case was investigated by the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office and the federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Assistant United States Attorney William J. Watkins Jr. of the Greenville office handled the case.

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. Open ALL Weekend When the Jews would not worship the pagans, Epiphanes raided and AND LAbOr dAy destroyed the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem.

Clowns

A clown is a comedy performer most often seen at the circus. The job of the clown is to add interludes of comic relief to the tense acrobatic performances and animal stunts. Clowns today have a distinct look. The most common is the whiteface clown; his face is painted a pale white and accented with a large red nose, red mouth, and other details, such as exaggerated eyebrows and even geometric designs or tears. Other modern clowns include the tramp, a whiteface that is painted to appear desolate with a dirty or unshaven face. Another type is the character clown, made to look like a policeman or fireman. A rustic clown is dressed to look like a figure from older times. Because of the size of a circus set, clowns must tell their story without speaking. This type of performance is called pantomime. The degree of difficulty in clown performing is often underestimated. Clowning has a long-running history with roots in Greek theater. In the Middle Ages, kings and queens enjoyed the antics of the court jester, who often wore costumes and a large hat with bells. During the Renaissance, the clown personalities of Pierrot and Harlequin were created. These two characters are still portrayed today in the timeless story of the naïve, lovestruck fool, Pierrot, who falls in love with the girl who, in turn, deceives him with his counterpart, Harlequin. By the 1700’s, modern circus clowns, such as the famous clown, Thomas Sully, had evolved.

LHS rocks Greer Middle College for fifth straight win The Landrum High School baseball team has found its groove. The Cardinals are tearing through the region right now undefeated with five straight victories. That hot streak continued on Friday night as the Cardinals rocked Greer Middle College 29-0. Kaleb Kuykendall won the game on the mound for Landrum. Jon Humphries hit a shot over the left field fence for the first home run of his high school career. The Cardinals now have wins over St. Joseph’s, Christ Church, Whitmire, Greer Middle College and Greenville Tech Charter. The Cardinals play at Blacksburg tomorrow at 7 p.m. (photo by Joey Millwood)

Wolverines baseball whitewashes Avery County 11-0 by Daniel Hecht

In a scenario that is becoming all too familiar to opponents, the Wolverines overpowered yet another conference rival by shutout, this time whitewashing the Vikings of Avery County by a score of 11-0 in five innings at Polk County High School Friday, March 25. Polk’s Roberto Taft pitched his first complete game of the season, allowing just two base hits while walking none. Taft struck out 10 as no Avery batter made it past first base in the contest. Although Polk batters managed to touch up Avery starter Dustin Clarke for five runs in the first three innings, the outcome was still very much in question until the fourth inning, when reliever CJ Vance

took the mound for the Vikings. After both Alec Philpott and TJ Fincher walked to put runners at first and second, Andre Overholt laced a sharp ground ball that took a quirky hop over the shortstop and into left field, scoring Philpott. Following a Rooster Ross sacrifice fly that scored Fincher from Andre Overholt scores on a wild pitch during Polk’s 11-0 victory over Avery Friday, third, Joel Booker March 25.
