Crowds pack Saluda for Coon Dog Day This raccoon doesn’t seem worried about being hunted as he watches Coon Dog Day activities from his perch atop several hound dogs. Despite soaring temperatures and high humidity, the streets of downtown Saluda were packed Saturday, July 9 for the 48th annual festival. The day started off at 8 a.m. with the Coon Dog Day 5K run, continued with a parade at 11 a.m. and the coon dog competition in the early afternoon, sponsored by the Central Carolina Benefit Coon Club. Live music entertained the crowd throughout the day, including bands such as The Green River Boys, Flaco & Ze Clownettes and McGuire’s Pipe Band. The Lonesome Road Band provided music for the annual community street dance in the evening, with square dances called by local Archie Hardy. See pages 3 and 4 for more photos.

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.

Polk County’s Andre Overholt signs with Brevard College by Daniel Hecht

Although his decision to attend Brevard College was firmed up a few weeks back, Polk County High School graduate Andre Overholt made it official Friday morning, gathering with family members and Polk head football coach Bruce Ollis at the Wolverine field house for the signing of his football scholarship commitment letter. Overholt, who played both ways at quarterback and defensive back, led the Wolverines to a schoolrecord 12-win season in his senior year, passing for 1,800 yards and

21 touchdowns while rushing for another 1,053 yards and 16 TDs. He will join teammates Cody Orick and Juan Hicks as the trio dons the Royal Blue and White of the Brevard College Tornados this fall. “Brevard assistant coach Brock Pursley told me that Andre will be given a chance to play right away, probably at one of the slotback positions,” said Ollis. “The thing about Andre is that he is so multidimensional – he can catch, he can run, he can throw -- he can probably even tape ankles at halftime if they need him to,” joked Ollis. “He can

do a lot of things and he can do them well.” Signing an athlete of Overholt’s caliber is a major recruiting victory for the Brevard coaching staff, headed up by coach Paul Hamilton. The 5’10” 160 pounder not only earned All-Western Highlands Conference honors in football, basketball, and baseball, he was also the most valuable player for Polk County High School in all three of those sports. Overholt, along with fellow graduate and Wolverine teammate Tyler Philpott, is scheduled to play in the North Carolina East-West All-Star

game next week in Greensboro. Overholt, a straight A honor roll student, plans to focus his studies on business. “Getting a degree in business will open up a wide range of options for me,” said Overholt at the signing Friday. “We’ll miss Andre’s leadership as much as we’ll miss his playing ability,” said Ollis. “He was a tremendous leader and one of our team captains. To me, on any sports team, particularly football, that’s the biggest honor you can get, being elected team captain by your teammates.”

Magician Fish the Magish performs at Lanier Library Magician Fish the Magish will perform at the Lanier Library’s summer children’s program on Saturday, July 16 at 2 p.m. The program is free and everyone is welcome. Fish the Magish, also known as Mike Fisher, lives in Asheboro, N.C., and has performed entertaining and educational programs for children at schools, libraries, and churches all over the south since 1992. This will be his third appearance at the Lanier Library and this time he will present his newest program, “Magic Around the World.” Having three grown children and three grandchildren, Fisher has a special rapport with young children and presents programs that engage and interact with the audience. However, he was presented with an unexpected quandary the last time he appeared at the Lanier Library. After pulling Rosco the Rabbit (a hand puppet) out of his hat, he asked the children in the audience if the rabbit could use his magic wand. One little girl about 6 or 7 years old put up her hand and said “no.” When he asked her why, she informed him that rabbits couldn’t use magic wands because they don’t have opposable thumbs. Somehow, perhaps by magic, Rosco was able to overcome his handicap. The Lanier Library is one of 16 membership libraries in the United States.

TES students create myths Editor’s note: Mrs. Corcoran’s fifth grade enrichment class at Tryon Elementary School recently completed a unit of study on Greek myths. Students created their own god or goddess and wrote a myth about their god. The following is an essay by Abigail Amato.

Celeste, the Goddess of Symbols

DOREEN PEARSON

Doreen Pearson died on July 5, 2011. Vernon Doreen Pearson was born on May 13, 1931, down the railroad and the Saluda Grade below Saluda at Melrose. Her parents were Giles William Pearson and Aletha Edna Morgan Pearson. Doreen was baptised and confirmed in the Episcopal Church at Saluda. She was one of nine children. Doreen graduated from the Saluda School at the top of her class and then attended Brevard College for two years. After graduating from Brevard, she followed her six sisters to Washington, D.C., to find employment. The sisters were Susan (Barbour), Virginia (McKinney), Julia (Daunt), Odessa (Galda), Aletha and Mildred. The two brothers were Giles William Jr. and Frederick James. Their family heritage is notable. Doreen was an executive secretary, mostly in the private sector, but her last few working years were with the F.D.I.C. in Washington for one of their top executives. Doreen married Brainard L. Janicki, executive vice-president of the Raleigh Stores in Washington, in 1971, and they enjoyed 40 happy years together. They had no children. They retired in 1985, when they returned to Melrose and built their home overlooking the Fork Creek Road, around the corner from the old Pearson homeplace. In Washington, Doreen attended classes at night, and after marriage attended full time at the George Washington University (she had been an English major) and was awarded a degree in psychology. Doreen enjoyed life, Melrose, nature, all of the arts, people, traveling and just being Doreen. She was a very decent individual. May she rest in peace. – Brainard

by Abigail Amato Once upon a time on Olympus a god and a goddess fell in love. They were Saden, the god of Chronology, and Caleea, the goddess of Energy. Caleea was very beautiful and Saden was very handsome. The two married soon after they met. The other gods and goddesses talked about how wonderful the two were and how much they did for people. It was soon agreed that they must give the couple something in return. So they decided to ask them what they would like. When they asked them, all they said they wanted was for their child to be one of the great gods or goddesses. The others soon agreed this was a fine request. So it was determined that the child that Caleea bore would be a great god or goddess. When Caleea gave birth to the child, they made sure that she had the greatest comforts in the world. When the child was born they realized that it was a very pretty girl. They named her Celeste, which means “heavenly,” for her beautiful appearance. The gods and goddesses agreed that it wouldn’t be hard to make Celeste a goddess. As Celeste grew, her parents realized that she didn’t ever say a word. They tried to keep it hidden, but it didn’t take long for the others to find out. They said that if Celeste didn’t learn to talk, they wouldn’t let her be a goddess. After waiting a couple of years, it was confirmed that the child could not talk. The gods and goddesses decided they must send her away to the Island of

Unwanted, the island where they sent gods or goddesses they couldn’t use. Saden and Caleea begged them to let Celeste stay, but they wouldn’t give in. The next morning they dropped Celeste off on the island. All the others on the island stared at her in wonder. They asked her how she got there and why she was there. Of course, she didn’t answer. They soon realized that she couldn’t talk. Though she couldn’t talk, the others on the island still honored her for her beauty and kind heart. Celeste saw many different people on the island. Some were ugly, others were too weak to use their powers, and some were blind or deaf. Some didn’t have enough sense to use their powers and didn’t know what to do. “But people are people and they deserve to be treated equally,” she thought. One night Celeste heard growling and rustling leaves. When she looked out she saw many beasts sent by Romans (who wanted to take over Greece) to destroy Olympus. Celeste rushed out of bed and woke up all the others on the island. Although she tried, she could not make a sound to tell what she saw. In panic, she ripped off a piece of bark from a nearby tree and picked up a black stone. She then drew pictures and symbols of everything she saw. They finally understood what she was trying to say. Then they quickly picked the strongest and best runner to deliver the news to Olympus. When the news was delivered the gods and goddesses prepared for the attack and when the beasts arrived, they combined all their powers and killed every last beast. As a reward for the warning, the gods allowed all unwanted gods and goddesses back on the island. Thanks to Celeste Olympus was no longer in danger.

Red-winged blackbirds hard to miss Almost everyone knows the red-winged blackbird. They are bold, brassy and very easy to see. They are also brightlycolored and noisy. All in all, you have a bird that is hard to miss. When the birds arrive in marshes and wet thickets in the early spring, the males are fascinating to watch as they stake out and defend their selected territories. The best way to watch the elaborate and flamboyant display of the newly arrived males is to visit the nesting area by Simon e a r l y i n t h e Thompson morning or late in the day. After about half an hour of observation you should be able to see many aspects of blackbird behavior, including “songspread,” bill-tilt and song flight. This is especially marked along the demarcation line between adjacent blackbird territories. For about two or three weeks, before the females arrive, the male’s songspread display is given. Often accompanied by the familiar “Conk-aree” song, the male gives this display from a prominent perch as he arches his body forward and

spreads his wings to show off his brightly-colored epaulets. This behavior is directed at other male birds in the vicinity. When display is at its most intense, the red and yellow epaulets may even vibrate with the bird’s excitement. When males share a common border, as they do down at many of our local wetlands (even down at the FENCE pond), males will bill-tilt, an activity that also exposes the epaulets, but no songs or calls are given. The birds remain fairly motionless with their bills pointing skyward. The song flight is the third easily seen display of the male red-winged blackbird. This is done as the bird enters or leaves its territory. This is a slow, stalling flight, again with the epaulets flared, and may be accompanied by the typical song. Since the redwing territories are usually small and adjacent, there is often a great deal of jockeying for suitable sites. By watching this behavior for an hour or so, you may be able to see the changeover and watch

different males claiming different areas of the marsh. Everyone knows what the male red-winged blackbird looks like, but the female is quite different. She is smaller with an overall sooty-gray appearance and fine streaks, more like a large dark sparrow. When these drabber plumaged females appear on the scene, the activity level rises greatly. And as the birds are polygamous, the females form sub-territories within each male’s territory. Again, defense of theses areas may involve chases and the three previously mentioned behavior patterns. Whatever your original reaction to the presence of redwinged blackbirds, a closer look at these familiar birds will offer a fascinating insight into their breeding behavior.

Tryon Painters and Sculptors presents “Color and Complexity,” oils and acrylics by Diana Martin in Gallery One at Tryon Fine Arts Center until July 30. For more than 40 years Martin has applied her talent to various artistic endeavors, including sculpture, ceramics, jewelry and clothing design, as well as fabric painting and wall hangings created from wood, fibers, metal and canvas. Her professional career spans a range of specialties including theater costume design and custom airbrush paintwork for custom car shows, Gloria Vanderbilt and Via Flora Productions of Palm Beach, Fla. Martin now spends most of her time painting on canvas, masonite and paper using a variety of techniques and media. She uses acrylics, watercolors, enamels, graphite and pastels (and whatever else she finds) with equal enthusiasm. “I have a deep hunger to create something that moves the soul. When I paint a piece of art and see it speak to someone else, that is when I feel I have accomplished what I set out to do,” Martin said. The exhibit runs June 26 to July 30 at Tryon Fine Arts Center, 34 Melrose Ave, Tryon.
