The "Walk of Fame" project was the vision of a group of involved community members led by Jim O' Neil. Taking advantageofa planned sidewalk improvement project, the group worked diligently to raise enough private donations to fund having brass medallionscreated and embedded in the sidewalk from downtown

il

The California State Railroad Museum Foundation sponsored two medallions — one at the beginning and one at the end of the "walk" — and joined a number of other sponsors to provide funds for creating an eye-catching mural design that is currently in development.

From Railtown, visitors to the park can enjoy the walk on their way to downtown Jamestown

forfood and shopping. From downtown Jamestown, people can follow the walk to visit the "Movie Star" steam locomotive Sierra No. 3 at Railtown.

The walk currently has 30 medallions, but was built with the capacityto add more medallions over time.

The walk begins in downtown Jamestown with an informational kiosk providing images and details of the county's rich film heritage.

Maggie Beck/Union Democrat

Railtown 1897 State Historic Park hosts an event Saturday highlighting the apple harvest.

The group is also working on plans for a historic mural at the corner of Seco and Main Streets, highlighting Jamestown's history and role as a gateway to Tuolumne County.

Tuolumne County, the Sierra Railway and Railtown 1897 SHP — whose historic shops, Roundhouse and famous Sierra No. 3 locomotive — have long served as a filming location for the film and television industry with more than 150 movies and television shows filmed at Railtown.

Also Saturday, Railtown will hostspecialapple harvest-related activities that aim to help to connectthe history oflocal agriculture with the railroad.

Activities for the day include interpretive displays of "fruit crate art" throughout the park; a slide presentation about the growth of the local apple indus-

try anditsroots to the railroad; live "original old-timey" music by the group Faux Renwah; hands-on arts and crafts for kids, and more.

Citing a climate and soils perfectforthe production ofapples, the Sierra Railway promoted the early development of apple orchards in the region through continuous advertising and even encouragedpeople to move to Tuolumne County and grow apples.

As added incentives, the railroad offered a bonus to those planting new orchards

of 10acres or more, free apple saplings, and also produced an informativebooklet on apple cultivation.

Eventually the railway's effortspaid offand, atone point in time, the demand became so high that Tuolumne County applesweren't even available forlocalresidents to purchase.

The appleharvest activities at Railtown 1897 are free with regularpark admission:$5 for adults,$3 for children ages 6 to 17,and free for children ages 5 and under.

Her career in art began with an art education degree from

Indiana University. She taught art in Indiana and Georgia.

While in Georgia, she met her husband. They moved to the Bay Area, and subsequently to a remote hilltop spot between San Andreas and Mokelumne Hill.

They built a unique home and a "sanctuary of inspiration" called the Adobe Hills Studio.

That is where Switek creates in oils, pastel and clay.

Using her salt and raku kilns, she said, "Ido decorative and functional wheel work though my preference is for sculptural forms. Most of my work has a strong textural element. I love to combine the natural surface textures found in nature with

"My early days in art were spent asa child trying to copy cartoons from comic books and doing paint-by-number paintings," Young added.

She won an art scholarship to Sacramento City College while in high school. There she took basic classes and learned many principals that have grown in

her work since.

"My parents lacked the resources to help pay for further art studies which meant I had to work and my art career did not materialize," she said.

"My art has continued to grow and expand in quality over the years. A 'lightness' has overcome the gloom of my very early art. I feel that my art is a Godgiven talent. I' ve learned some techniques and enhancements by watching others and just by trying something and making mistakes."

Having worked in oils and acrylics, her medium of choice is

l~

now watercolors.

"I try to capture the memory

of a place by setting down texture, feelings, characteristics — the uniqueness and special qualityofthat place,"she said.

Local historical buildings being shown in the library exhibit include paintings of Veterans Memorial Hall in Tuolumne, the old red Soulsbyville schoolhouse, as well as buildings at Columbia State Historic Park and Hurst Ranch.

Young finds inspiration along the upper Highway 108 corridor.

"Ilove to go to places such as Fraser Flat, Brightman Flat, and up Sonora Pass to the high country. I enjoy working with ultra-fine Sharpie pens while on location," she said.

Included in the library exhibit is "By the River's Edge," which was done "en plein air" and depicts rocks along the Stanislaus River near Baker Station.

Also being shown is "River and Bridge at Fraser Flat."

In the people category, she captured the Shriner clowns who go to hospitals for visits, while they were waiting to participate in the Mother Lode Roundup Parade.That painting, also in the exhibit, won a second placeaward at a Mother Lode Art Association show. Another

A painting of a basset hound with kittens and squirrels,a colorful cat,and a horse from Re-Horse Rescue ranch are alsopart ofthe exhibit.

"Something different for me, and in the show, is 'My Wild Day.' I poured watercolors on the canvas, and afterwards I startedto see animals in the painting; so I outlined each of them in ink. Everyone seems to like it!"

Young has been commissioned to dosome specialpaintings with unique challenges but she said, "With God's help, I am able to complete each painting which proves to be a delight to the recipients as well as to myself.

Each artwork I complete brings me satisfaction and wonder. I actually did that!"

She has also done two large murals for Sacramento-area

Gockley replaced Pamela Rosenberg, who mounted ambitious seasons &om 2001-05 that led to deficits.

STARPOWE 'Transylvania 2' bites off September record LOS ANGELES (AP) — September has a new boxoffice star in "Hotel Transylvania 2." The PG-rated animated pic earned a robust $48.5 million in its debut weekend, making it the top September opener ofalltim e.

The previous record holder was "Hotel Transylvania," which opened to $42.5 million in 2012.

"It really is something the whole family can agree to see. There are laughs for adults, kids, and teenagers as well," said Rory Bruer, president of worldwide distribution for Sony.

According to the studio, an estimated 59 percent of audiences were female and 60 percent were under the age of 25.

Paul Dergarabedian, a Senior Media Analyst for boxoffice tracker Rentrak, noted that the film capitalized on early excitement for Halloween. It's also serving an audience eager for more family &iendly animated content.

"This year hasn't been oversaturated with family animated films, it seems like virtually all have done well," he said.

The film, which cost around $80 million to make, features the voices of Adam Sandier, Mel Brooks, Selena Gomez and Kevin James and is the only animated

Mavis (voicedby Selena Gomez) and Jonathan (voiced by Andy Samberg) are in the No. 1 movie "Hotel Transylvania 2." feature on the market until "Peanuts" opens in November.

'The Intern," a PG-13 rated workplace comedy starring Anne

Hathaway and Robert De Niro, took second with a solid $17.7 million.

Audiences for the Nancy Meyers written and directed film were 62 percent women and 88 percent over the age of 25. Significantly, 55 percent were over 50-years-oldan audience that doesn't typically rush out to see films on opening weekend.

"Nancy Meyers is her own brand and I think that automatically accesses an audience who looks at it and thinks 'this is a movie I want to see,' " said Jeff Goldstein, an

executive vice president at Warner Bros., of the veteran filmmaker known for films like "It's Complicated."

"Here we have a real hit," he said.

"Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials" took third place in its second weekend in theaters with $14.2 million — a 54 percent drop &om its opening. The film has brought in $51.9 million to date.

"Everest," meanwhile, landed in fourth place with only $13.2 million after expanding nationwide. The fact-based adventure film opened only on IMAX and premium large format 3D screens the previous weekend.

"It's very difficult to know where

a film is going to land when there' s no good comp for it. Based on the releasing pattern we had for the movie, we' re kind of blazing a new trail. You can call it an experiment if you will," said Nick Carpou, who heads Universal's domestic distribution. "When you add the two weekends together and the mid-weeks in between, sitting here at $23 million feels really good."

Dergarabedian said that perhaps the competition over the same audience is the reason for "Everest's" soft weekend.

"It'sreally crowded out there," Dergarabedian said. Both "Black Mass," in fifth place with $11 million, and "Everest" have been pulling in predominantly male audiences.

The well-reviewed border drama "Sicario" is also dividing audience attentions.

Itcracked thetop 10 with $1.7 million &om only 59 theaters.

Hope isn't lost for "Everest," though. Internationally, it has earned $73.7 million to date.

Aguilera connects with roots on relief effort trip NEW YORK (AP) — Christina Aguilera has visited Haiti, Rwanda and Guatemala on relief effort trips,butlastweekin Ecuador she not only offered support to struggling and hungry children — she

also connected with her roots.

Aguilera's father is from Ecuador. The trip marked the first time the 34-year-old singer, who was born in New York, had visited the country.

"This particular trip was sort ofextra-specialform e because it is my blood and heritage. My father was born in Ecuador and my grandfather was born in Quito, which is the city I stayed in. And we would drive out in the fields which were hours away by car and into the farmland and sort of refugee areas where people are struggling," Aguilera said in an interview with The Associated Press on Monday.

"This was a really interesting and raw way to go about it. It wasn't like I vacationed there in one of the more beautifulspots such asGalapagos Islands or things like that. I went into the fields and got to meet the women and children there who are really trying to survive," she said.

Aguilera has been a volunteer globalspokesperson forYum! Brands'World Hunger Relief since 2009. She has visited Rwanda, Haiti and Guatemala. Aguilera said"itfeltthatm uch betterto me that I was in a place that I felt so connected to and was able to give back to." She's filmed a public service announcement to raise hunger awareness.

The building was occupied as a saloon many years ago by Henry Bornheim. Mrs. Cinelli, the present owner, will use it now as an annex to the City H otel or rent it as a store,or for

other purposes. Anyway, there was foundunder the floorin one place an old Spanish silver coin aboutthe size ofa 25-cent piece — dated 1782;also four dimes, U. S. coinage of 1816, 1837, 1838 and 1845.

Vhe History of the Eproson House

with linguine pasta 17

Ray and Ella (Giannini) Eproson moved to Twain Harte with theirfamily in 1930.7he family owned the Twain Harte Grocery (where7-11 is now located). Ray became Twain Harte's Postmaster and Fire Chief, and the PostOnce was located in their store, which,for many years, was also their home. They began building their new home on (what is now) Twain Harte Drive during World War II. This is the current location of the Eproson House. It was completed in 1947 and hadf iv rooms. The PostOnce was moved to thefront part of what is now the bar.

Ray and Ella's bedroom was located behind the Post Off ic. The children's bedrooms were located in what is now the dining room between the current bar and the new dining area near the fireplace.

Ray Eproson died in 1967and Ella lived in the house until her death in 1972. In 1973 the house was sold to Mr. and Mrs Warton who converted the home into a restaurant, "The Eproson House." Dick Rachel took over the restaurantfrom the Wartons, and later sold it in 1975 (8) to Martha Scott, who owned the business until 1991.Martha added the new dining area on the west end o f the building (the sky room). The bar and restaurant became the social and business center o f Twain Harte.

Since1991, the Eproson House has had several owners and,for a short time, a diferent name. It is, once again, the Eproson House Restaurant. We welcome all of you past and present to our House, the Eproson House. Enjoy!
