By Maggy Lehmicke, Nebraska News Service LINCOLN—Nebraskans have yet to recognize the magnitude of human trafficking in their home state, officials said at an interna- tional conference Friday. “Realize that human trafficking is here,” said Stephen O’Meara, the Nebraska attorney general office’s human trafficking coordinator. This doesn’t just include Lincoln and Omaha, he said. “It’s all across Nebraska, in all its forms,” he said. Human trafficking experts from across the globe gathered at the Embassy Suites in downtown Lin- coln on Thursday for the Annual Human Trafficking Conference. Though various experts spoke about solving the issue on a na- tional and international scale, there was much discussion about finding a solution to the issue right here in Nebraska. O’Meara was hired in April and has since confirmed cases of traf- ficking in Auburn, Hastings, Grand Island and various other small towns in Nebraska. He recently confirmed a case in the town of Hills, Iowa. “Hills, Iowa, has a population of 550,” O’Meara said. “That ought to make you think.” Human trafficking is defined as the illegal transportation of people, usually for forced labor or sexual exploitation. However, human traf- ficking also encompasses organ trafficking and child labor, includ- ing child soldiers. Attorney General Doug Peterson supported local anti-trafficking agencies in Lincoln before he be- came involved at the legislative level. He followed former Lincoln Sen. Amanda McGill’s anti-traf- ficking bill and attended hearings. “The Nebraska laws didn’t prop- erly address the issue,” Peterson said. “There was a resistance in the Legislature, which I couldn’t un- derstand.” Working closely with Sen. Jim Scheer of Norfolk, the Human Traf- ficking Task Force and local anti- trafficking organizations, Peterson helped develop LB 294, an anti- trafficking bill that passed 49-0 on May 14. Peterson said it’s the role of the government to protect its most vul- nerable citizens. “Currently, the majority of chil- dren that are rescued from human trafficking situations are placed in the foster care system,” said Spencer Head, Scheer’s legislative aide. “According to many of the indi- viduals familiar with the system that we spoke with, many of these victims run away from their foster care home within the first 24 hours of placement and return to their pimp,” he said. But Head said coming up with a solution to this problem is no easy task. “Section 16 of the bill was a very contentious part,” he said. There was much debate on whether or not temporarily detaining the victims would amount to criminalizing them, he said. “The compromise we arrived at was to task the Foster Care Review Office with keeping information on all human trafficking victims who are placed in foster care,” he said. Having the office track this data al- lows the Legislature the opportu- nity to revisit the issue in the future, he said. The new law also introduces the concept of “john school,” an educa- tional program buyers of illicit sex have to attend if they’re convicted of solicitation. The program has been used in other states as a way to educate buyers on human traf- ficking. O’Meara said educating the pub- lic, especially those in law and service industries, is a key compo- nent in combating trafficking. “This is all market-driven,” O’Meara said. “No johns; no sex trafficking.” ‘Tis the Season...

Construction began for the repaving project on north West Street. The project is part of a four street renovation as bonded by the Plainview City Council for repairs and some new pavement in and around Plainview’s streets. Council to bring Kusi Taki musicians The Plainview Arts Council will present Kusi Taki, in concert on Sunday, October 11th, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. at the Plainview High School Auditorium. The public is invited to attend the performance with tickets avail- able at the door. Plainview Arts Council members will be admitted free of charge to the event, which is presented with the support of the Nebraska Arts Council and the Ne- braska Cultural Endowment.

They testified before the Health and Human Services Committee and a packed house with responders in uniform. Many of the rural fire and rescue departments rely on volunteers. But aging and dwindling rural popula- tions put stress on the remaining volunteers. There are few jobs in any rural farming communities, and younger people are leaving their hometowns to seek jobs in more urban settings. Fewer people means fewer people to volunteer, stretch- ing thin rural emergency services teams, witnesses said. The debate was precipitated by Sen. Dan Watermeier of Syracuse and his Legislative Resolution 298, which called for an interim study to discover how best to help these rural responders. Prospective emergency medical technicians are required to partici- pate in at least 160 hours of class- work over six months as well as independent study and a national certification test. One suggested so- lution involved lowering the train- ing requirements needed to be certified as an emergency medical responder in Nebraska. Dr. Eric Ernest is an assistant professor of emergency medicine at University of Nebraska Medical Center and the medical director with Cass County Emergency Man- agement Agency. He said EMTs need more education, not less. “We are no longer a profession of ambulance drivers,” he said. Ernest was concerned that less- qualified EMTs would not be able to provide necessary patient care, especially for the long rides to the nearest medical facility that often accompany small-town rescue calls. Sen. Al Davis of Hyannis said he was concerned additional educa- tional requirements would scare off potential volunteers from joining. Andrew Snodgrass, assistant chief of medical rescue with Ne- braska City Rescue, said the volun- teer model for rural rescue teams is dying. He said the responding team loses money each time somebody calls 9-1-1. He said he’d rather em- ploy somebody with a larger knowl- edge base than somebody who simply took the class and barely reached the minimum certification standards. Chief Tom Hamernik of Clarkson Fire and Rescue said he doesn’t want to sacrifice patient care, but he recognizes a trade-off between ed- ucational training and recruiting volunteers. Micheal Dwyer with Arlington Emergency Medical Services said he would like to see the number of required hours reduced and the process of acquiring the certifica- tion shortened. Dwyer argued for a blend of the volunteer model and a government- funded emergency medical services model. “If you want to require the same standard of care, you have to fund it,” Dwyer said. Collin Warren, a board member with the Nebraska Emergency Med- ical Services Association, said emergency services have a jurisdic- tion problem. Nobody has any own- ership over EMS in Nebraska, he said. Warren said the public believes somebody will respond if 9-1-1 is called, but they don’t have to. There may not be anybody around to re- spond. Tax money often only pays for travel and equipment, not the volunteers, he said. Police and fire departments are treated as essential services, Warren said, asking why emergency response services are not considered essential, too. Human trafficking a statewide issue, even in remote parts Co-oping athletics, junior high on agenda The Plainview Board of Education will discuss co-oping athletic pro- grams and discuss the topic of the old junior high building at its monthly meeting on Monday, Oct. 12. Both carryover items from last month’s meeting, the Board will con- sider continuing discussion on the co- oping of athletic programs for the Plainview Public Schools with other schools. Discussion last month included consideration of just a few sports, or the entire athletic program, and which communities to reach out to – starting with Creighton, according to the min- utes last month. Enrollment numbers from last month’s certification period, as well as low numbers for sports teams this year – pushing some teams already into not being able to compete – have resurfaced the discussion. Last month as well, Board Presi- dent Bob Green revisited the topic of creating a committee and beginning discussion and progress toward work- ing on, removing or replacing the old junior high building on the southeast corner of the current school plant. Other items on the agenda include a number of policies for review, ap- proval of the 2014-2015 audit and discussion and possible action on re- placing an air conditioning unit.

New Clubhouse hours: Mondaythrough Friday, clubhouse opens at 11a.m. and closes “when you get out ofhere.” Except Wednesdays, the Club-house will close at five; and Saturdayand SUnday it will open at 10 a.m.

Hope that makes sense, it means ifthe door is open, the Club is open.

Different ways to review the year sothis might seem kind of hit and miss.

Should thank the News Editor forprinting the contributed articles with-out too much censoring. The Managerdoes some screening before turning thewriting in for print. There have beensome verbal threats and warningsgiven by those who are not amused byseeing their names printed without per-mission, but not serious enough topush a lawsuit for libel.

With two censors reviewing thewriting, there has not been any lewd orlascivious description of ladies’ ap-parel on the course, or, for that matter,men’s apparel either.

The Senior Scrambles averagedabout 20 teams every month with ahigh in August of 24 teams. A coupleof local teams maybe won a little morethan their share of money were razzedabout it, but maybe they are just decentgolfers.

Kathi has decent lunches for the oldgentlemen which they appreciate andthe guys also appreciate a well-groomed course.

The Open in June was successfulwith a full slate of golfers, a fun tastysteak feed, the largest Calcutta ever,and a good number of volunteers to en-sure the golfers and gallery had foodand drink at their beck and call.

The entries were about evenly di-vided between members and non-members, which was good, and theFlight winners and others who wonprizes in their Flights reflected thatratio.

Then there was Sam Meuret, the lit-tle kid who grew up on the course,sharing five gallon buckets of rangeballs with brother, Riley, and friend,

Mitch. He loafed through the Saturdayrounds, shooting an even par of 72,leaving him six strokes off the lead. OnSunday he left all the Pros and thelocal Aces in the championship singing“Good Night Irene” by being the onlyplayer to break par, and he did that by10 strokes.

Might be awhile before anyonebests his score of 62, until Sam entersanother Open.

Sam tried to be a little hoggish andalso win the Men’s tournaments, butonly placed second to Tim Knaak, whoshowed everyone “he ain’t done yet”as he shot a 31 for nine backed with a34 to win the Club Tourney.

Kind of encouraging to all the guysover 50, but none of the rest of themhave won nine Opens.

The Ladies also had their Club, withJulie Meraz taking the trophy.

The Senior’s Open was won byKirby Marsh, but he had to beat JayKnaak in a play-off to claim the win.

Good to have all these individualscoring tournaments, but the sad sideis there are not near high enough num-bers as there should be. Not too manyyears back, there would be at least 50in the Men’s and 30 to 40 in theLadies. The cost is not an excuse, be-cause its almost nil. Would be great ifall the members made a point to enternext year just to have fun.

Another fun time was the One ManScramble tournament. Same story, asnot enough entries. Hope it gets sched-uled again in 2016 so the golfers canhave a mulligan every shot and shootthe round of their life.

The North Four Tee Cup was re-tained again in Plainview, thanks to 10stalwart members taking on three othercourses and playing their hearts for 27holes. The win was not by manystrokes, but the Men kept the Cup.

Three different formats are playedin the 27 holes, one being the “Alter-nate Shot.” It is just what it soundslike, so pars are considered good andbogies are somewhat normal as eitherplayer may not hit a good shot at anytime.

There was an exception to this asYoung Kounovsky and Young Peter-son were partners in the first year ofthe Cup. The kids started on our Hole5 in a shotgun start, and went Eagle,Birdie, Par, Birdie, Par, so they beatboth opponents in five holes of thenine hole match. Kind of hard to beatthat kind of golf in the Alternate for-mat.

Had 20 new memberships lastSpring, but not sure how many reallygot their money’s worth, even if it wasat half the usual cost. Hope all 20 hadenough fun with the greatest game thatall return next year.

The Board did good again (ain’tkissing up, I writes em like a sees um),besides doing all the Sunday nightcooking, putting out almost 800 meals.

On second thought, maybe I wasthinking 2014 when they tore out abunch of trees and planted new ones.And there are hints that more treeworks may be coming.

This Board is a pretty good group offolks and are open to suggestions oreven complaints so feel free eitherway.

Would like to close out thesecolumns for the year with the an-nouncement of Ken Wilson having anAce on the 194-yard fourth hole with athree iron. Even have a news clippingstating it is so. Problem is…our fourthhole is only 125 yards, and the hole re-ferred to is on the Eagle Course, 10miles east of Lincoln.

Former members Rita and JimHowe live on the Eagle Course andsent the clipping because of the nameinvolved. Maybe 25 years ago thesame named local old codger could

make that shot, but now it would takea perfect drive and a full nine iron toattain that yardage.

Don’t give up on the local golf yetas the Course is beautiful and theweather will still accommodate, attimes.

If it was 60 degrees in April, thecourse would be busy, busy.

Might be back in the spring to relatethe happenings and fun times at theCountry Club. Only six months until itis sign-up time for the Open!

Good papers finish lastIt’s that time of year again – National Newspaper week in the United

States!I do really like this week, it’s a fun thing to watch your industry go

head over heels in love with itself. Promoting and blathering on aboutthe best and better-best parts of itself. Nothing like a huge circle of equalsall sitting around patting themselves on the back.

Not to be too cynical.This industry has changed quite a bit in the last few hundred years.A process invented for reproduction, absorbed to bring a “voice to the

voiceless,” abused by those in power, dominated as a “free speech” tooland most recently as a subjective mouthpiece for whoever provides themost money.

Small town papers are different – we’re usually individually owned(not by a board, and/or a professional publisher) and the rules don’t al-ways apply. In fact, we typically have to make up our own rules – hope-fully through quite a bit of trial and (little) error.

Lots of people complain about small town papers containing typicallytwo things: A. Bad News; B. No News.

There are those of us that would love to publish pages of soccer pic-tures, really enjoy publishing card club news and really can’t get enoughof youth sports or public meetings. I’d love to have 10 pages of fun stuffeach week, but the problem is, the facts are, bad things happen.

I don’t run this paper, or any of them, to be completely sales driven. Itake a bit of a “higher purpose” than that – I have to, otherwise I’m justan overpaid community secretary – we’re recording history.

The same way that people now look at things in past editions, con-stantly ask me what happened months or years ago, and love to reminisce– they will always want to do that.

We’re one of the last, people, seriously – that will publish any of yournews for no charge. Take a gander sometime at the papers around us – re-gardless of the distance - my model for news coverage is different thannearly everyone else.

I want to preserve the middle-section of what newspapers have be-come. The historical record, the soapbox for the voiceless and the reliable,legitimate, integrity backed, one off each week, permanent record for allthings.

Sometimes, that means I cover things people don’t like – trust me, ifyou don’t like them, I probably don’t either. Tragedy strikes us all, that’swhat makes it relatable. It’s the response from a small town that makesthe difference.

And your small town paper will be there for it all.But the brass tacks are – if you don’t subscribe, it can’t be. I don’t sell

inflated numbers, I don’t sell flash and we’ve gone to great length to“keep up with the times” all while preserving the purpose of what we do.

I’m scared to see scrapbooks for those people who don’t have news-papers – a bunch of inkjet printed Facebook posts isn’t going to be as funto look back on. A stack of printed white paper with “stories” that areeight sentences long aren’t going to capture the moment. Altered photo-graphs to make everything look the best, rather than capture the trutharen’t going to be trusted.

I do realize we have to provide a product worth buying – but withoutsupport, none of my “dreams” can become a reality – the world haschanged in relation to small business, but the purpose of small papers re-mains the same.

During this National Newspaper week, it’s probably more important tocelebrate subscribers than ourselves – without local readers there isn’tmuch purpose to it at all!

CHI Health has been awarded a$194,000 grant to support the devel-opment of a network of communityand clinical initiatives inclusive ofpreventive outreach, education and re-sources that will help individuals whohave, or are at risk of having, mentalillness and substance use issues.

This second year project planninggrant is provided by the Mission andMinistry Fund of Catholic Health Ini-tiatives, the national health care sys-tem that includes CHI Health.

Communities that are working to-gether to develop the plan with CHIHealth-owned hospitals in Nebraskaare: Kearney, Grand Island, Lincoln,Plainview, Nebraska City, Omaha, Pa-pillion and Schuyler. Communitieswith CHI Health hospitals in South-west Iowa are: Corning, CouncilBluffs and Missouri Valley.

Since it was established in 1996with guidance from the health sys-tem’s founding congregations, theMission and Ministry Fund hasawarded 452 grants totaling morethan $63 million to programs aroundthe globe. The fund was establishedthrough contributions from CatholicHealth Initiatives’ facilities across thenation.

“Finding new and innovative waysto improve the health of communitieshas always been the mission thatguides CHI,” said Kevin Lofton, pres-ident and chief executive officer ofCatholic Health Initiatives. “We’revery proud of the collaborative workthat CHI Health is doing in the com-munities it serves.”

The work being done by CHIHealth to plan for their communities’mental health needs, which includesthe expansion of telepsychiatry serv-

ices, has the attributes Catholic HealthInitiatives seeks when awarding Mis-sion and Ministry Fund grants: itmeets an identified community need,is innovative, able to be replicated andpromotes collaboration with other or-ganizations.

“The prevalence of mental illnessin our communities shows that thereis a need for creative and innovativestrategies to help support finding ad-ditional solutions,” said Sheree Keely,vice president of behavioral healthservices for CHI Health. “We needthese types of partnerships as wemove into population health manage-ment. CHI is visionary in looking athow to develop and support thesetypes of initiatives.”

The Medicare Part D annual openenrollment period begins October 15,and officials with the Nebraska Sen-ior Health Insurance Information Pro-gram (SHIIP) are remindingbeneficiaries to review their plan’schanges and compare them with otheroptions for 2016.

“Medicare prescription drug planschange their offerings from year toyear,” said Bev Myers, SHIIP Coordi-nator. “Many Nebraskans withMedicare may see significant pre-mium increases, as well as changes totheir plan’s list of covered drugs, ifthey stay with the same coverage fornext year.”

People with Medicare may changetheir drug coverage each year fromOctober 14 through December 7.Beneficiaries who did not enroll whenthey were first eligible may also signup during this time, but will becharged a financial penalty. All planchanges and new enrollments will beeffective January 1, 2016.

Residents in Pierce County maycome to the Lied Pierce Library onThursday, October 29 from 10 a.m.until noon. Nancy Meyer and AnnFenton, SHIIP volunteers, will be ableto help attendees find the right plan inwhich to enroll.

Parties may also schedule an ap-pointment by calling the UNL Exten-sion Office in Pierce.

5 End-of Year Tips from Your PharmacistAs the days keep getting shorter, does it feel as though there are fewer than

24 hours in a day? With the holidays right on the horizon, there’s so much to thinkabout and so much to do. Here are a few end-of-year reminders to make sure yourhealth—and your pocketbook—doesn’t get the short end of the stick.

1. Get your flu shot. If you’re like many people, getting a flu vaccination caneasily slip your mind. But a flu shot is too important to get bumped to the bottom ofyour priority list. Every flu season is different, and every person responds to the fluin a different way. The flu can lead to hospitalizations and even death. The flu sea-son often begins in October, so there’s no better time than the present.1

2. Plan for Medicare open enrollment. Every year, the open enrollment forMedicare is October 15 through December 7. This is when you can change yourhealth plan and prescription drug coverage. You can get more information here:Call 1-800-MEDICARE or go to www.medicare.gov.2 You’ll find a wealth of re-sources to help you compare hospitals, doctors, drug plans, and other health careservices. But if you need more help making comparisons and choices, we can help.Just ask.

3. Switch to generics. Generic medications are identical to brand-namedrugs in dosage, form, safety, strength, route of administration, quality, perform-ance traits, and intended use. Here’s how they’re different: They’re usually muchless expensive than brand-name drugs. Not all medications have a generic equiva-lent for a brand-name drug. One way to find out is to go to [email protected] Or, wecan also talk this over.

Switching to a generic medication might put a few (maybe more than a few)extra dollars back in your pocket. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a little extra money forthe holidays—or to use however you choose?

4. Use or lose it. Do you have a flexible spending account (FSA)? This is aspecial account you put money into to pay certain out-of-pocket health costs. Thatmight include copayments, deductibles, drugs, and other health care costs. Limitedto $2,550 each year, this money is not taxable.4

If you have an FSA, now is the time to use up your health benefit dollars—oryou’ll lose them! Schedule eye or medical checkups before the end of the year.Some employers make allowances, though. So check to see if you have a graceperiod for using up the money or if you can carry over a limited amount of funds tothe next year.4

5. Schedule a “tune-up.” Why not schedule a meeting with me to see ifyour medications are working as well as they can for you? We can help you comeup with ways to remember to take your drugs and to order refills—before you runout. Not happy with your drug’s side effects? Both your doctor and I can work withyou to adjust your dose or to find a substitute. There’s no need for you to suffer insilence. Nothing herein constitutes medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, or is a substitute for professionaladvice. You should always seek the advice of your physician or other medical professional if youhave questions or concerns about a medical condition.

On Saturday, Oct. 3 the Lady Pi-rates traveled to Oakland for theteam’s last girls golf event of theregular season.

“This was the 10th different golfcourse that the girls have played onthis season,” said Coach LarryKnaak. “Many golfers do not playon that many courses in their life-time.”

The Oakland tournament had sev-eral teams from the eastern part ofthe state, including Papillion LaV-ista’s junior varsity, who won thetournament with a 384. Plainviewplaced eighth among the 11 schools.

Devan Solomon was four strokesout of medal range as she shot a 55on the front nine and then she had apersonal best of 53 on the back nine.“Devan has steadily improved thisseason,” said Knaak. “And has achange to qualify for state golf ifshe continues.”

Elizabeth Kment has also showngreat improvement, said Knaak. Shewas one stroke off her personal beston the back nine. Kment had a 69 onthe front and then improved to 63 onthe back. “Elizabeth is still ham-pered by her ankle injury of lastsummer,” said Knaak.

Sarah Watson was able to playmost of the holes well, but the holeswith lateral hazards gave her prob-lems, said Knaak. She did have sev-eral bogies in her rounds of 68-67.

Tabitha Johnston completed theteam scoring with 68-71. “Tabithacontinues to struggle around thegreen that keeps her from loweringher scores,” said Knaak.

Sharyn Sheppard had her scoresof 69-73 not used in the team scor-ing.

The next action for the Lady Pi-rate golf team was scheduled forTuesday, Oct. 6 when they were totravel to Wayne Country Club forDistricts.

At O’NeillThe Plainview Lady Pirate girls

golf team traveled to O’Neill on

Thursday, Oct. 1 for the O’Neill re-serve tournament.

Since several of the schools thatnormally participate in this tourna-ment do not have any reserves, onlyO’Neill, Plainview and Elkhorn Val-ley played, said Coach Larry Knaak.O’Neill’s varsity also did not partic-ipate as several of their team wentto practice on their district course.

The two O’Neill players that re-mained played with DevanSolomon, and were not included inthe tournament.

Solomon, with the exception oftwo holes, shot a 62. The girlsplayed from the normal tees, and thereserve tournament used shortenedtee placement.

Elizabeth Kment led the youngPirates with a 53 and a second-placemedal. “Elizabeth had a very con-sistent round with only one holegiving her trouble,” said Knaak.

Jadin Doerr was one stroke be-hind Kment and placed third with a54. “Jadin had a par and two bogiesin her round,” said Knaak. Doerrcommented that she finally playedwith some confidence and she did-n’t get discouraged after a bad shot.

Tabitha Johnston took the lastmedal for Plainview as she tied forfourth-place, but won the scorecardplayoff. Johnston shot 55 as sheputted very well. “As Tabitha learnsto make the right club selection,”said Knaak, “she’ll lower herscore.”

Sharyn Shappard with a 60, andSarah Watson with a 62, did notplace in the tournament. Sheppardwas able to bogie the two par threes,but the three long holes gave herproblems, said Knaak.

Watson started out with puttingproblems as she had 34 strokes afterfour holes. “Sarah settled down andonly took 28 strokes on the last fiveholes that included the two parfives,” said Knaak. “Both of thesegirls can shoot better than what theyshot today.”

The Plainview Pirate football teamtook on the Creighton Bulldogs on theroad last Friday in Creighton, fallingto the home team, 44-6.

“Even though we lost, by whatseems to be a lot, this game was muchcloser than what the scoreboard re-flects,” said Coach Blake Mosel. “Wehad a four or five minutes collapse inthe first quarter that hurt us. But oncethat was over, it was a very competi-tive game throughout.”

The Pirates put points on the boardin the first quarter, scoring a touch-down on the third play of the game inthe hands of Cole Aschoff on a 42-yard quarterback scramble.

Unfortunately, the Bulldogs re-sponded with 24 points in the first,eight in the second and six in the thirdand fourth to take a dominant lead thePirates were unable to overcome.

Plainview moved the ball on theground over 41 carries for 128 yardsand through the air on 11 of 20 passesfor 129 additional yards. The Bull-dogs pushed only 148 yards on theground by comparison, and actuallyhad less yardage through the air, 83yards.

The Pirate offense moved the ballfor more positive yards than the Bull-dogs through the course of the game,though the score indicated otherwise– 257 yards for the Pirates and 231

yards for the Bulldogs.Offensively, Tyler Friedrich had 62

yards on 14 carries and two receptionsfor 24 yards to lead the Pirates statis-tically. Cole Aschoff had 43 yards,Matt Hoffmann had 60 total yards,Trent Steinkraus had 13 yards, HunterAshburn had three yards and AlexHaase had three receptions for 19yards.

“Our defense played great again,”said Mosel. “holding Creighton to itslowest point total this season and I’msure lowest amount of total yards thisseason. All-in-all we competed withthe third-ranked team in state, and thatis something we are proud to be ableto say.”

Friedrich also posted high numbersfor the team, with 15 tackles creditedto his listing. Nic Jensen posted 11tackles, Matt Hoffmann had 10 total,Cole Kuzel had nine, Alex Haase andTrent Steinkraus both had six tackles,Cole Aschoff had four, Trent Cruz hadtwo and Justin Wilson had one.

The Pirates will take on Wakefieldthis Friday, Oct. 9 at the home fieldbeginning at 7 p.m. and will double-up with Hartington the following Fri-day, Oct. 16 at home against theWildcats. Their final game will be onThursday, Oct. 23 against the Bloom-field Bees on the road.

The Plainview Cross Country run-ners took to the field in Stanton lastweek on Thursday, just ahead of theconference meet this Friday, and Dis-tricts next week.

The Pirate runners finished fifthoverall out of the 10 teams at the in-vite, and individual results in a fieldof 70 competitors.

“That’s Amore”

Q: I have a mint 78-rpm recordingof Dean Martin’s “That’s Amore.” Isit worth more than the $5 I paid for it?— Stan, Sun City, Arizona

A: Probably not. Your recordingwas issued by Capitol Records (Capi-tol 2589) and hit the charts in Novem-ber 1953. The song was introduced inthe movie “The Caddy.” It is not con-sidered rare, and generally sells for $2or $3 in good condition. Incidentally,the record charted for 22 weeks andquickly became a standard.

Q: I have inherited a vase that wascrafted and signed by Susie Cooper,but I have not been able to find any-thing about her in any of my referencebooks. I wonder if the piece is worthkeeping. — Betty, San Diego

A: Susie Cooper was a 20th-centuryceramic designer who was first affili-ated with A.E. Gray Pottery in Henley,England. Some of her very first pieceswere made in 1922, but by 1930 shehad formed a family pottery businesswith her brother-in-law, Jack Beeson.Within a decade she had become animportant potter, and her pieces arequite collectible. For example, a vasemight sell in the $200 to $450 range,and a punch bowl, $200. If you likeyour vase, it is worth keeping.

Q: I have a set of salt-and-peppershakers that are marked “DesertSands.” What do you know about thiscompany? — Bill, Tulsa, Oklahoma

A: Not much. During the 1850s, asmall pottery company was started inthe Ozark Mountains of Missouri.During the 1920s, it moved to LasVegas, where the name Desert Sandswas adopted. In 1937, the plant relo-cated to Boulder City, Nevada, andeventually moved once again toBarstow, California, where it closedduring the 1970s. Pieces were identi-fied with stamps and paper labels. Iwould assume your salt-and-pepperset might be worth about $25.

Q: I have several thousand match-book covers. How can I find out howmuch they are worth? — Niles, Pal-metto, Florida

A: One of the better referencebooks is The Matchcover Collector’sPrice Guide (2nd edition) by Bill Ret-skin, available at Amazon.com. Youalso might look into the RathkampMatchcover Society at www.match-cover.org.

* Spring bulbs need a few weeks inthe ground to get established beforethe first of the frosts. If you’re justgetting around to planting your springbulbs, here is a great garden designtip: Use kebab skewers to figure outthe bulbs’ placement in the garden.

* “Place an ice cube (or ice chips)in carpet divots left behind by furni-ture legs. This will help the fibers“plump up,” and the spot will disap-pear!” — A.I in Utah

* Felt circles are great for puttingunder small appliances on the kitchencounter. They are easier to movearound, and they won’t scratch thecountertops. You can find them at thehardware store, or make your own bycutting out what you need from apiece of felt and attaching it to thebottom of your appliance with dou-ble-stick tape ... or even a drop ofglue!

* Running a washing machine thatisn’t full not only wastes energy andwater, it also wastes money becauseyou’re paying to run more washes. Al-ways fill the machine — but remem-ber not to overload it! This applies toyour dishwasher, too.

* “To help repel the dust on base-boards between cleanings, wipe witha used dryer sheet. To make this eveneasier, you can put the dryer sheetover a Swiffer-type floor cleaner. Thisway, you don’t even have to benddown.” — M.E. in Alabama

* “You can use plain alcohol on apaper towel to wipe down your housetelephone. I do this a couple of timesa week during cold season. Also, pur-chase a pack of electronics wipes, soeveryone can keep his or her cell-phone screen clean. Think about it:We constantly touch the screen withour fingers, then stick it right up to ourface!” — W.R. in New York
