Civic Association to Host New V-C John McCardell
The 2010–11 season of the Sewanee Civic Association begins on Tuesday, Sept. 7, in the Sewanee Inn with John McCardell, Sewanee’s new vice-chancellor, as guest speak-er. This year marks a break with tradition, as this historic Sewanee group moves its meeting schedule to a more fl exible and shortened calendar.
The Civic Association is the governing body for the Sewanee Community Chest, the charter or-ganization for Sewanee Boy Scout Troop 152 and the selection com-mittee for the annual Community Service Award.
The association will meet four times for dinner with a speaker program during the academic year: September, November, February and April.
President Elizabeth Duncan says, “We try to discern topics that will be of interest and timely to the Sewanee and area communi-ties, and suggestions are always welcome. We have had many fi ne speakers over the past several years and are grateful that Dr. McCardell can be with us in September.
“It is also my pleasure to wel-come new leadership to our Civic Association board this year: The-resa Shackelford, co-president and program chair, and Bobbye Ballard, secretary. We welcome back Rocky
Sewanee’s new fi rst family, Bonnie and John McCardell.
Morris as treasurer and Elizabeth Koella as member-at-large. Jay and Laurie Fisher serve as our leads for the Community Chest and have se-cured Susan and Bob Askew as their co-leads. With our new format and leadership, this year promises to be most successful.”
September’s meeting will begin with wine and dinner at 6:30 p.m. in the main dining room of the Sewanee Inn. The menu created by SAS Aramark director and chef Emily Wallace will feature mixed green salad, tomato and goat cheese tarts, spinach aida, salmon fi let with strawberry balsamic vinaigrette, wild rice, dessert and tea and coffee. Cost for the meal is $10 and may be paid at the door.
The cost to join the Civic Associa-tion has been changed to a yearly fee of $5. Reservations are welcomed, either for a standing reservation or for individual dinners, and at this time may be sent to <eduncan44@gmail.com>. All are welcome and a reservation, while helpful for plan-ning purposes, is not required.

On July 18, members from the Episcopal Church of the Advent in Spartanburg, S.C., arrived in Sewanee to spend a week repairing the Crow Creek Valley Community Center in Sherwood.
The construction specialists from Spartanburg were Charles Minch, leader and retired mechanical en-gineer; Larry Moore, public school educator and administrator; Bob Page, retired school principal; Parker Champion, building contractor; Rick Gilliam, accountant; Bert Knight, pulmonologist; Mac Davis, retired pathologist; and Jim Elliott, retired businessman. The mission trip repre-sented the 12th trip from the Church of the Advent to the Cumberland area to assist in the University of the South’s outreach program, coordi-nated by Dixon Myers.
The men lodged at St. Mary’s Se-

wanee Retreat and Conference Center. Each morning they drove down to the work site, starting at 6:30 a.m. to beat the summer heat wave. The contacts in Sherwood were the Rev. Bill Barton and Kathy Pack, director of the center. The center provided lunches and all supplies for the work.
Volunteers replaced weathered outside plywood sheets over the gymnasium windows and covered the entire window area with vinyl siding. They scraped and painted the outside windows for three class-rooms. They removed fl ooring tiles from one classroom and painted the walls. In the kitchen, they repaired and painted a cabinet. Barton held a Eucharist service for the volunteers at the local church, the Episcopal Church of the Epiphany, and asked a blessing for their work. Short prayer meetings were held nightly.
Missioners from the Episcopal Church of the Advent in Spartanburg, S.C., worked for a week repairing the Crow Creek Valley Community Center. They are pictured above with the Rev. Bill Barton (center) and Kathy Pack, director of the center.

OMISSIONTo the Editor:
In my recent letter, I omitted the name of one of the Community Ac-tion Committee’s newest and most active board members: Tommy Hewitt. Tommy’s leadership and service to our community includes organizing the bread drivers to Kroger, hauling groceries to and from CAC, and fi guring out the plan to keep everyone at the Mobile Food Pantry hydrated. Thanks, Tommy and all the CAC Board, for caring for others in the greater Sewanee community!

THANKS TO ALL WHOPARTICIPATEDTo the Editor:
On behalf of all of the Sewanee Elementary School Parent Teacher Organization, we would like to thank everyone who attended the annual Open House. It was a good opportu-nity to see the school and your child’s classroom. The SES PTO served more than 260 hot dogs, met some new people and got some new volunteers. Thank you. This is a great way to start off the new school year.
Special thanks to Chasity Wil-liams for letting the SES PTO come and mess up her kitchen. We could not have done this dinner without you.

NEW ARBITER OF FASHION?To the Editor:
As most any true Southerner would know, there are some certain sartorial practices regarding proper dress that distinguish the cogno-scente from the less informed. Among them are that white shoes for women and seersucker suits and straw hats for men are worn only between Eas-ter and Labor Day. Southern Living Magazine, that estimable arbiter of things genuinely Southern, recently reported that a new norm has been promulgated, one which allows the fall date for the wearing of such dress be extended to the day of the Tennessee-Alabama football game.
Now I have no investment in either of those schools, but if this is what it takes to allow one to wear such comfortable and distinctive attire for a few weeks longer, then I’m all for it. So, don’t store ‘em yet, Joe Bal-lard, Michael Hurst, John Grammer, Dave Spaulding, George Ramseur, Wyatt Prunty, et al; enjoy the cultural reprieve. And ladies, white sandals will look mighty nice with a pretty sundress until that big game, also.

UNWANTED SUMMERVISITORSTo the Editor:
The summer belongs to the in-sects, snakes and all kinds of four-legged critters. As long as we humans stay out of their way, everything is fi ne. Just wander into their habitat, your yard, you will fi nd out quickly whose land this is. Try to sit on your un-screened porch and the mosqui-toes, gnats, ants and other insects will soon send you into your house searching through the medicine cabinet seeking some type of cream
Serving Where Called
Seven years ago this column began to support the large number of reservists and National Guard members called up for active duty to serve in the war in Iraq. About 50,000 troops remain in Iraq to support and train their military and assist with counterterrorism.
On Dec. 1, 2009, President Barack Obama announced he was sending additional troops to Afghanistan to focus on reversing the Taliban’s momentum. Today thousands of our troops are de-ployed in this volatile area.
This is a reminder that some-one else is standing guard and facing fire for us. Please keep the following individuals, their families and all those who fi ght for freedom in your prayers:

to relieve itching and burning. Please do not tell me earth belongs to man. I have always found summer un-comfortable due to the pollen, but this summer I have actually been afraid for my life, as well as the lives of my pets.
I have seen coyote, large wild cats that can’t be identified, poisonous snakes, skunks, fox, etc. There are those who have seen mountain lions and black bear. I live on Alabama Avenue, and I don’t know what I will see come out of the wilderness.
There also seems to be a debate about the fox relationship with your pets. Some say a fox will very seldom eat a cat but do agree the fox loves the blood sport of killing small animals.
The rattler says, “I will rattle so that you will move. But I’m not moving.”
Well, Old Man Winter, I will be glad to see you. I wish you would come a little early.

Quick ResponseAt the Community Council meeting on Monday night, it was reported
that shrubs and brush had grown up at the corner of Kennerly and U.S. 41A causing a visibility/safety problem. At 7:30 a.m. Tuesday morning Sewanee Police Chief Robert White contacted Franklin County Sheriff Tim Fuller requesting assistance in clearing the trees and brush, and by 9:30 a.m., one of the sheriff ’s work crews was on site. Above, Chief White and University Physical Plant Services Director John Vineyard walk over to consult with the workers. Messenger photo by G.H. Piccard
Recent community concerns have prompted the University to is-sue this reminder about the policy governing dogs on campus and in University facilities. According to the Dog Control Policy, all dogs must be under obvious and effective control of their owners at all times while on the Domain. No dogs other than guide dogs are allowed in University buildings.
The Sewanee Police Department
is authorized to pick up dogs that are not under their owners’ control, found in University buildings, or that constitute a hazard or nuisance. The complete policy may be found here: <http://www2.sewanee.edu/provost/dog_policy>.
Dogs have long been welcome members of the Sewanee commu-nity, and everyone’s understanding and support of this policy will help continue that tradition even as the community grows and legal require-ments change.

Emerald-Hodgson Hospital News
Employee Recognition Emerald-Hodgson Hospital (EHH) selected Melissa Gilliam as the
employee honoree for July. Melissa has been with EHH since 1992. She currently works as a Registered Nurse/Certifi ed Emergency Nurse in the emergency department. She also serves as a house supervisor at EHH. Melissa and her two sons, Mathew and Madison, reside in Sewanee. She spends her free time with her family and especially enjoys outings to the beach with her sons. Melissa was chosen for recognition in a random drawing among all employees having July birthdays. Her award includes use of a close-in parking space for the month and a gift basket with movie tickets and other goodies. Congratulations, Melissa Gilliam!
EHH also salutes Hazel Hawkins, Employee of the Quarter. Hazel’s con-tribution to EHH was celebrated at a reception in her honor. Hazel joined the EHH team in January 1991, working initially in the environmental services department before transferring to the dietary department in 1995, where she was promoted to the EHH dietary supervisor in 1996.
In Hazel’s nomination letter, fellow EHH employee Laura Knight states, “Hazel knows how to make our employees, patients, physicians and com-munity members feel important, appreciated and respected. She is always going above and beyond to help others in our hospital and our community at large. She organizes fund-raisers, donates time and resources to those in need and coordinates events to honor employees. Hazel may hold a non-clinical position, but she is improving the lives of those around her every day. She is a vital part of what makes this hospital unique and special to our small town community.”
Hazel resides in Sewanee with her husband, Marshall, who is also a devoted supporter of the community. Asked how she spent her leisure time, Hazel replied that she didn’t really have any hobbies. Organizing fund-raisers and special events and fi nding ways to help others in the community, whether in conjunction with her job or outside of it, is what Hazel Hawkins loves to do most.
State of the HospitalEHH Administrator Ralph Underwood reported that emergency room
visits increased compared to July of 2009, but in all other departments, utilization of EHH declined compared to last year. Underwood attributed the “volume shortfall” to physicians being out of the offi ce taking vaca-tion time.

Sewanee Chorale: Calling All Singers
The Sewanee Chorale is pleased to announce that Gary Sturgis will be the new conductor and musical director for the 2010–11 season. This year’s rehearsals will begin on Monday, Sept.13, at 7 p.m. in “the pit,” located in Hamilton Hall of the School of Theology building, next to the Chapel of the Apostles.

For further information call Gary Sturgis at (931) 636-5294 or e-mail <gksturgis@yahoo.com>.
July Emergency Services ReportsEMS: Not available at press time.FIRE: Chief David Green reports
the volunteers had six calls in July—four alarms and two landing zones for emergency helicopters.
POLICE: Chief Robert White reports the department patrolled 5,384 miles in July; investigated two vehicle accidents; made two arrests for drug law violations and 12 ar-rests for liquor law violations. Five thefts were reported. Fifteen moving violations and 18 nonmoving viola-tions were ticketed; 22 warnings were issued. Two animals were picked up for Animal Control.
Grandchildren Remember
A Celebration of Life was held Aug. 21 to remember Vera Alvene Rollins (1924–2006). The family gathered at Harton Park in Monteagle, where a bench with plaque was placed in her memory. The bench was given by 18 of her grandchildren through the City of Monteagle, reports Melissa Reid Goodloe for the family.
The bench and its placement speak to Rollin’s character. She was a lady who enjoyed being among friends and visiting with those in her community. She enjoyed going to Hardee’s for an occasional breakfast, attending church at Monteagle First Baptist, lunching at the Senior Center and getting her nails done. She did not drive but she loved to be out, even if only for the weekly grocery trip.
There were many evenings and holidays when her family would go for walks, and Rollins would go along and wait on one of the benches in the park. She would enjoy the sounds of nature around her, wave to friends and neighbors passing by and smile brightly as her children and grand-children would make the loop.
Her life was not always easy but as the family celebrated, her character shone through in each person. Her memory will live forever in the hearts of her family.

Sewanee-based writers Diane Marquart Moore and Isabel Anders have published a new mystery, “Chant of Death,” released by Pinyon Publish-ing, 2010.
In “Chant of Death,” the traditional Seven Deadly Sins are fl eshed out in a complex, unfolding narrative of suspicion, darkness, and deceit. In a story straight from the headl ines—of monks becoming ‘rock stars,’ the novel is set in a fi ctional Benedic-tine Abbey in southern Louisiana.
When a sudden murder breaks the ordered, prayerful se-quence of the monks’ dedicated days, Father Malachi fi nds his pow-ers stretched to the limit in an effort to protect the innocent and identify the killer. Lives and philosophies confl ict, setting off deadly sparks—where pious faith and ancient supersti-tion often mingle seamlessly; where Spanish moss veils the landscape, and a murderous soul has found a

Doug McCoy’s new collection of acrylic paintings and ink drawings titled “Myth of Man” will be exhibited during September in the In-Town Gallery, located on 26A Frazier Ave., Chattanooga.
McCoy’s dramatic detailed pieces invite the viewer to look closer and celebrate creativity and imagination. A reception will be held on Friday, Sept. 3, from 5 to 8 p.m. in the In-Town Gallery. The event is open to the public at no charge.
“The Myth of Man exhibition is simply about my love of ink and creat-ing interesting art,” said McCoy. “As a child my imagination was a constant companion, and I have strived to maintain it through the years. The dra-matic nature of the work is intended to provoke a smile or contemplation on the subject while inviting the viewer to look as close as possible.”

Sports Scoreboard Overtime with Coach ShackBy John Shackelford
School is starting and for a coach, it feels like springtime. Everything is new, every team is undefeated and the new freshmen are ready and excited about being on the Mountain.
I went for a run early this past Saturday morning (technically I am not sure you can classify my pace as a run). The sound of volleyballs echoed from the gym in the Fowler Center, the fi eld hockey team was just fi nishing a hard run, and the football team was scrimmaging on the game fi eld.
The soccer teams have begun practice at the University, the local schools and the AYSO league, up at the ballpark. The SAS football team has already won the opening game of their 2010 campaign. The beginning of a sea-son is fi lled with hope and anticipation of what the next few months will bring. Practice, conditioning, coaching, meetings, all designed to lead us to victory. We must, however, also prepare for defeat and how to deal with the setbacks along the way. The season will present us with a great many coaching opportunities, chances to take the moment and turn it into an occasion where real learning takes place.
Seasons often begin with lofty goals and the hope of reaching new heights. As I drove my daughter off to college last week and considered what her future may bring, I was also thinking about the length of the journey. Not only the length of our car ride for the next nine hours but also the length of her new path, wherever that may lead her. As car rides go, soon you begin counting down the hours until you reach your desti-nation. It began to rain and rain hard. My concentration was forced to be much more focused on the road immediately in front of me and my thoughts were limited to those 15 feet that were within my vision. Soon time evaporated and we had arrived at her new home—a gentle reminder of how important it is for us to live in the now, not in the future. Athletes are successful when they can translate that into action on the fi eld and in their lives.
During Avery’s orientation process, Edward Ayers, the University of Richmond president, welcomed the new freshmen by cautioning them against thinking of them-selves as pre-law, pre-business, or pre-med. He explained that they are not pre-anything. Just make the most of every second of this day. That is great coaching advice on the court, while driving in the rain, and through-out our journey.

St. Andrew’s-Sewanee raced to a 32-8 halftime lead, then coasted to a 54-36 win over Tennessee School for the Deaf at Sewanee’s Hardee Field on Thursday afternoon, Aug. 19.
The Mountain Lions were led by junior tailback Kendall Kinslow, who rushed 16 times for 155 yards and scored 28 points.

SAS plays today at 4 p.m. in its home opener against Berean Acad-emy.
After weeks of preseason training the Mountain Lion girls’ varsity soc-cer team traveled to Huntland, where they opened the regular season with a 6-2 victory over the Lady Hornets.
Junior Sadie Shackelford of Se-wanee was the fi rst to put SAS on the scoreboard with two goals in the fi rst half, one of which was assisted by freshman Michaela Shackelford.
Three minutes into the second half the Mountain Lions struck again, when sophomore Nikki Johnston of Sewanee fi red a shot right outside the penalty box. At this point in the game SAS seemed to have control of the match, when suddenly the Hornets’ Chelsea Clark scored two quick goals with only 10 minutes remaining. The Mountain Lions found themselves back on their heals in a tight battle.
SAS Varsity Soccer Scores Victory Over Huntland
With only fi ve minutes remaining in the game, the entire team went on the attack and roared toward victory. Junior Allyson Ridley scored two goals assisted by Nikki Johnston, and Johnston scored, assisted by sopho-more Alex Berner-Coe of Sewanee.
“The last 10 minutes of the match was the best soccer I’ve seen us play in a long time,” commented coach Margot Burns. “We suddenly elevated our level of play and where deter-mined to leave it all on the fi eld. The last three goals were fl at out amazing. Our challenge now is to play like that all the time.”
The team will take the fi eld again today at home against Mount Juliet Christian at 4:30 p.m.

Nature NotesHognose Snake
On Aug. 17, Jean Yeatman observed a 6-inch young snake lying on a fl at rock by the porch. It was examined by Jean and Harry, because it resembled a young rattlesnake in head shape, fl attened body and black markings on the head and body. No rattles were seen, so it was scraped into a milk jug that was used to carry bird feed. Its unique head markings and upturned nose showed it to be a Hognose Snake of the eastern United States of America. Its color variations can be totally black or black marked on a light background. A black one inhabits the woods near the lake at St. Andrew’s-Sewanee School. When disturbed this snake sometimes attempts to strike at the disturber, but never bites. Then it attempts to play dead by turning over on its back with its mouth open and tongue hanging out. If it is turned upright by the observer, it will turn upside down again, ruining its disguise. When it is left alone it will crawl away. It is harmless, but has been mis-identifi ed as a venomous snake and called “puff adder.” Its food consists of toads, frogs and, rarely, grasshoppers. It has enlarged adrenal glands that produce cortisone to counteract toad and frog poisons. The Yeatmans’ snake was photographed and returned to the fl ower garden.

In many minds, hearing loss is an age-related phenomenon that is as inevitable as gray hair and wrinkles. The fact is, however, that about 75% of hearing loss in the typical person is preventable. Ac-cording to research, one of the leading causes of damage to the ear (and subsequent hearing loss) is exposure to excessive noise. More than 20 million Americans jeopardize their hearing by expos-ing themselves to high levels of noise on a regular basis. Any noise louder than 65dB (about the level made by a typical lawnmower) is a potential hazard to hearing. The louder the noise, the less time it takes to do its damage.The noise pollution to which we constantly expose our ears in our pursuit of entertainment, in our jobs or normal daily activities is a major reason why the number of hearing-impaired persons is increas-ing annually. At The Hearing Center LLC, we want to make you aware of the importance of protecting your hearing and give you specific ways they you can improve your quality of life through clear sound and communication. We offer custom hearing protection, as well as musician’s earplugs and musician’s monitors to help provide you with maximum protection for your specific situation.

makes him special. Finchum was also a man of great integrity and character who was an example to everyone both on and off the playing field. Winchester Little League is proud that men like Murrell Finchum have been a part of this league.
After Finchum passed away in 1995, the league decided to create an award in his honor. It is presented
SAS’ Rhoton Wins Finchum Award from page 9 . . .
each year to a 12-year-old player who is fi nishing his career with Win-chester Little League.
The Murrell Finchum Award is the highest honor that the league can bestow. In fact, it is the only award that Winchester Little League gives; however, it is not an MVP award or a sportsmanship award. This award is given to a player who demonstrates the virtues that Finchum modeled for his players: a love for the game, a desire to do his best no matter what the circumstances, a respect for his teammates and his opponents, a willingness to encourage others and the display of character on and off the fi eld.
The 2010 Murrell Finchum award is presented to Riley Rhoton. Riley, an 8th-grader at St. Andrew’s-Sewanee School, is son of Troy and Delanna Rhoton of Winchester.
